End of twenty twenty five.

Speaker 6 0:43

I don't know if you know, but this is a season finale. Oh my god. It's a season finale.

Speaker 5 0:48

We never would have thought that we've said something.

Speaker 6 0:50

I don't even know. It's crazy. Isn't it crazy? We're gonna give you today, though, like the episodes you're accustomed to with a little bit of like a reflection, right?

Speaker 5 1:04

So but like it might be the episode that you actually introduced your friends to. Like, let's just start up with episode 30 and just tell you what these guys are about, and then let's just start.

Speaker 6 1:15

It might be the episode you didn't know you needed, but you needed it. Oh my god.

Speaker 5 1:19

That is exactly it.

Speaker 6 1:20

And with that, what is today, Megan?

Speaker 1 1:23

It is National Wear Pearls Day. Oh, I love to wear pearls on Prize and Saturday. And I forgot to wear my pearls today. So I'm very upset.

Speaker 5 1:34

And if you are watching Heated Rivalry, you probably had a pearl necklace last night.

Speaker 6 1:39

Well, Megan, if you can, if you start the car now, you could get a pearl necklace.

Speaker 5 1:46

You can get a pearl necklace in about 45 minutes. Listen, that show is so heated. All the games to talk about the details.

Heated Rivalry Hype And Release Format

Speaker 6 1:56

If you tuned in to last episode, so is one out of those five straight men.

Speaker 5 2:00

They are either pro necklace or snowballs. Whatever. Oh, snowballs. All that.

Speaker 1 2:06

So we should say Heated Rivalry is a new show. It's it's it's on HBO Max. It's releasing one episode a week, so it's probably in four episodes.

Speaker 6 2:21

It's it is yes, it's HBO Max. I had fake pearls on.

Speaker 5 2:28

No, HBO Max.

Speaker 6 2:30

Oh, is it?

Speaker 5 2:30

Yeah. All right. Well, it says it's which is one of the things that Megan talked about earlier on this uh podcast. It's like it's an episode a week, Megan.

Speaker 1 2:39

Yeah, which are not my I like to just binge. So, and it's also what I've heard from people. I haven't watched it yet. It's on my list, but um it's what everyone hoped boots would be.

Speaker 6 2:53

Oh, I don't know. Like, I think boots had a nice little sentiment too, but okay.

Speaker 1 2:59

Yeah, well, that's a commentary. That's what I'm saying. Well, the gays are loving it. It's about and the straights. It's gay, it's about hockey teams, right? Hockey teams?

Speaker 5 3:09

Yeah, it is a hockey team. Well, is it a hockey booty situation? Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 6 3:14

I mean, there's the face-off. I'll just say you have not even watched it. I've watched half of the first episode. It was not finished it? No, I was tired.

unknown 3:25

Oh my god.

Speaker 1 3:27

Well, I've heard you as a gay man want to watch it alone.

Speaker 5 3:30

I've watched twice. Alone. The three episodes. Yeah, one it's a show that you have to watch them all.

Speaker 6 3:36

You don't want to watch it. You don't. You don't at all. No, not with your like stepmom, no dad. No.

Speaker 1 3:44

Well, getting back to pearls.

Speaker 6 3:45

Okay. All right, Pearl. Let's do it, Penny.

Speaker 1 3:48

So something else with pearls that always makes me think about is Queen Elizabeth. She loved her pearls, which then transitions to Megan, Duchess of Sussex. That's wow.

Speaker 6 4:01

That I mean, so I hope some of you scratch, but go.

Speaker 1 4:04

Not really. Not really at all.

Speaker 6 4:06

All right, all right.

Speaker 1 4:07

But anyway, I hope all of you have watched the With Love Megan holiday episode on Netflix.

Speaker 6 4:14

Do not have not.

Royals, With Love Meghan, And Holiday Crafts

Speaker 1 4:15

Well, I would recommend everyone watching this. I will watch. Yeah. It again, I will give this to Megan Markle, even though Megan Sussex is her, I guess, correct name these days. Is with her shows, I was not necessarily a fan before, and I'm slow. I feel like I'm a fan now. Like I feel like if we met in real life, we'd be really good friends.

Speaker 6 4:42

Oh my God. And you just said the same thing about aliens in the last episode. Exactly. Yes.

Speaker 5 4:51

Yeah, what not about that?

Speaker 6 4:52

So from aliens on the left to make and Megan Markle on the So if she were to have a dinner party, yeah.

Speaker 5 4:59

That would be a preference, E.T. will be on one side, and Megan Markle will be the and Michael Jackson, Howard Stern, and Bill Clinton.

Speaker 6 5:08

And what about what about your fellow postcasters? Would we be there?

Speaker 1 5:12

Oh, 100%.

Speaker 6 5:13

Well, okay.

Speaker 1 5:14

And I might add in Patrick Dempsey and George Clooney.

Speaker 6 5:16

Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 5:18

Does that not sound like a dinner party you want to attend?

Speaker 5:21

I want to be there.

Speaker 6 5:23

Yes, on my RSVP.

Speaker 5:25

Yes.

Speaker 7 5:26

Okay.

Speaker 1 5:26

All right. Well, where were you? Anyway, what I've learned with the Myth with Love Megan holiday episode. I learned some new cookie decorating techniques.

Speaker 4 5:36

Okay. Tell me about that.

Speaker 1 5:37

When JJ and I get together for our cookie day party, I am going to show off.

Speaker 6 5:40

I think we have a date for that.

Speaker 5 5:42

We do. We don't we're not going to tell slipers. It's not an is not public.

Speaker 6 5:46

Papa rots. Papa Rats. It's not a public.

Speaker 5 5:49

Oh. Why?

Speaker 6 5:50

And you think they're going to be looking in the windows? No.

Speaker 5 5:53

It's a very exclusive. That time is a very, as Megan knows.

Speaker 6 5:58

Oh, I was disinvited for two years.

Speaker 5 6:00

It's a very exclusive time. And no, it's not open for invitation. Matty.

Speaker 6 6:09

Okay. I have Matty. Post-traumatic syndrome.

Speaker 1 6:12

Well, keep your mind your P's and Q's and you'll be fine. Thank you, Megan. But let me say this that Megan also showcased some different wrapping techniques, which I've seen JJ.

Speaker 6 6:26

Like Christmas wrapping you're talking about?

Speaker 1 6:27

Yes.

Speaker 6 6:28

Okay.

Speaker 1 6:28

With folds and things, which in case she was like JJ does. Wrapping, rapping. Like R. No, I don't I don't think she considers herself a rapper.

Speaker 6 6:39

This is like bows and ties and taper. Yes.

Speaker 1 6:42

And um, I will say I also picked up some techniques there.

Speaker 5 6:45

And I think she So are you going to pick up on those those techniques?

Speaker 1 6:49

Yeah, I think I might try it. I might try it with my wrapping. We'll see. So, but I think she's giving you a little run for your money, thinking because you're an expert rapper.

Speaker 6 6:59

I have not tried it. To be honest, I have not tried it. I think that you've done better now. Well, I do feel a certain sense of like responsibility. I can't make the bottom part of the wrapping paper show. Like I tuck it, I'll tuck it, and I'll be like, oh, we'll less tape. I'll try it. The beauty of a tuck.

Speaker 1 7:19

And she used and JJ, to your point of what's necessary for good rapping, she uses double-sided tape.

Speaker 5 7:27

And you were opposed to it.

Oprah’s Favorite Things Under The Microscope

Speaker 1 7:29

I know. Are you coming around? I'm coming around. So Megan, I just take a slab to get her out.

Speaker 6 7:34

It only takes the royal. Oh, right, JJ. Good point. Yeah.

Speaker 1 7:39

Well, I think, I think if I met her, I used to sometimes wonder like no, people love to dislike Megan Markle, but I do think I get why they want to dislike her. But the more I watch her, she's kind of just like nerdy and quirky. And I think if we met, we become friends. And I think we should do a pod. Two mags in a pod. I do. Two mags in a pod.

Speaker 2 8:04

Two mags in a pod.

Speaker 1 8:06

She's the brunette, I'm the blonde. Oh my God. I do.

Speaker 2 8:10

That is so.

Speaker 6 8:11

I do love this weird, like everybody, you're like when you put it out in the universe, they will be your friend. And I do, I will support two mags in a meag.

Speaker 1 8:23

Well, two mags and a pod.

Speaker 6 8:25

Two mags and a pot.

Speaker 1 8:26

So now you're willing to go Megan instead of Megan for Well, no, I'm still Megan, and like that's still my name, but for the title, it can be two megs.

Speaker 6 8:35

Because I'm M E G.

Speaker 1 8:36

No, I'm M E G is the first three letters of my name.

Speaker 6 8:40

All right. Yeah.

Speaker 5 8:41

I'm kind of digging two megs in a pot.

Speaker 6 8:44

What about two megs in a mat?

Speaker 4 8:46

No. No, you want to get your summit on. You want to get your summoned. You really.

Speaker 6 8:50

What are you getting a little FOMO? Listen. Listen, Linda. I'm trying to work. Okay. All right. Listen, here I want to see that.

Speaker 1 9:01

I like to make friends and be friends.

Speaker 6 9:04

Okay. Great.

Speaker 1 9:05

So I take E.T., I take Megan Markle. I take them as they come.

Speaker 4 9:08

What a spectrum. Yeah, exactly. Well. Get them on the same table.

Speaker 1 9:13

I will have dinner. So something Megan has that I don't have is she's got this whole line of products at called As Ever that she's been selling.

Speaker 5 9:25

The brand is As Ever.

Speaker 1 9:27

As Ever, correct. So it's she showcases them sometimes on her show.

Speaker 5 9:32

Okay.

Speaker 1 9:33

And so there's like honeys, there's like fruit jams, there's uh rose. So I've been trying to get my hands on some of these products. So F-Is and Eyes, maybe a future product review will be one of these products. So one of them is she has these signature, they're called fruit spreads, but they're really just jams. And she has fruit spreads.

Speaker 5 9:55

I've never heard of that. I think it's a legal thing.

Speaker 1 9:58

I I think it's a legal thing about the makeup of the fruit.

Speaker 6 10:02

I think jam has been cornered. That market has been cornered. So now it's a fruit spread.

Speaker 1 10:06

No, I think there's probably terminology about the makeup of something. I don't know. I'm I'm surmising.

Speaker 6 10:12

You're surmising. Yeah.

Speaker 1 10:13

And you are also an attorney, so that's well, it's I think there, I think there's a legitimate crud. Anyway, it's called fruit spread. She has a signature fruit spread gift set, which is orange marmalade, raspberry jam, and apricot jam.

Speaker 6 10:31

I don't like any of those. Oh my god.

Speaker 1 10:33

So raspberry jam and apricot jams are my two top fave jams.

Speaker 5 10:37

Meh. Really? Matty. Scrape. Matty, I do love it.

Speaker 1 10:41

Grape is usually jelly, not jam.

Speaker 5 10:43

It's very, you know, uh good cookie with raspberry jam every Christmas.

Speaker 1 10:50

And you love it. I don't. You've always said you love it.

Speaker 6 10:53

No, I don't. I've never said that.

Speaker 1 10:56

Yes, you have. You've liked it.

Speaker 6 10:57

Can you show me I have a mitaled lied? Okay. That could be true. But I do not like raspberry ever. I don't like raspberry flavor. And I don't like the little seeds. And orange marmarade. No.

Speaker 1 11:09

Okay, fine.

Speaker 6 11:10

What else was?

Speaker 1 11:10

You're not a padding than pear. I get it.

Speaker 5 11:12

And orange. Orange and strawberry and raspberry.

Speaker 6 11:15

Oh, strawberry and apricot.

Speaker 1 11:16

No.

Speaker 6 11:16

There's no apricot. That's it.

Speaker 5 11:18

There is a package that they have. Oh, raspberry, strawberry, and orange. That's a gift uh gift box that they have a signature fruit spread uh and their website.

Speaker 1 11:28

Okay. Well, let me like we've gone on about the fruit spread enough. Yes. What I want to point out about it is Oprah, who is the Sussex Sussex's neighbor in Montecito, has the as ever signature fruit spread gift set on her favorite things list this year.

Speaker 6 11:49

Oh, oh, Oprah.

Speaker 1 11:51

Yeah. So I'm a big fan of like shopping Oprah's favorite things every year.

Product Deep Dives: TV, Slippers, Heels, Nuts, Cookies, Olive Oil

Speaker 6 11:56

I am a big fan of anyone pulling together um a list of things that they love. And I have grown up with Oprah's favorite things. So I love it as well. But I do like it's different than nothing.

Speaker 1 12:12

Oh, oh, oh, Oprah's selling the Sussexes. Come on over.

Speaker 6 12:16

Oh, I love it. It's red on Brenn.

Speaker 1 12:18

So I will tell you a cute story where like some chickens, rogue chickens, got on Oprah's property, and she like colleges squirrel, squirrel, squirrel.

Speaker 6 12:32

Is this a creature feature? Is this a creature feature?

Speaker 1 12:36

She talked about this story on some show. I'm like, what is going to happen? Well, she called Megan and Harry and said, Come on over. And your coming over triggered it. Yeah. It triggered it. She said, Come on over. I've got all these rogue chickens on my property. And Harry came over with the box carrying Megan and captured them and took them home because they have chicken coops. So they've incorporated. The more you know.

Speaker 6 13:01

I see the rainbow. The more you know.

Speaker 1 13:04

They've incorporated them into their chicken coop.

Speaker 6 13:05

How do we go? How do we move on?

Speaker 1 13:08

Well, because it's Oprah's.

Speaker 5 13:09

Talking about Oprah's favorite things in the cooped up chicken.

Speaker 1 13:13

Well, that's the Sasuke. That made the 2025 does not have the chicks on her property.

Speaker 5 13:18

It has evolved into a big thing. Like Oprah's favorite thing.

Speaker 1 13:25

Yes. 100%. And I love it, but my my issue is I've got some issues with that.

Speaker 5 13:30

I'm conflicted by it.

Speaker 6 13:31

Yeah. We are gonna try to keep episode 30 positive, but Oprah, we know what's going on.

Speaker 1 13:36

Yeah, she's these are no longer Oprah. This originally started truly as Oprah's favorite things. And let me tell you, I honestly always want to know what Oprah's favorite things are.

Speaker 6 13:46

I actually want to know what your favorite things are. It's a great concept.

Speaker 1 13:50

Yeah, correct. I like to know everyone's favorite things.

Speaker 6 13:52

We outsource it. We have an ish.

Speaker 1 13:54

And I do think a lot of this has been outsourced, and it's a little bit more propaganda to certain products.

Speaker 6 14:02

I agree. I mean, it's everything is like I don't know, like it's it's like people are orchestrating it. Yeah. Right. Like, and I guess maybe she's signing off on things at the end of the day, but like it doesn't feel authentically like Or's favorite things.

Speaker 1 14:23

And we're really like, I'm kind of like a weird person where like if I find something I like, I kind of go all crazy and nerd out about it and like tell everyone. And so for me, favorite things is like a passionate thing about that I have in my life.

Speaker 6 14:40

So I don't like it's not like somebody sat something in front of you and said, Do you like this? Yeah, I like it.

Speaker 1 14:46

No, it's like that's what it feels like. No, that's what it does feel like.

Speaker 6 14:49

Well, yeah, that's uh I think there's a few products a few of us like 100%, and I'm here for it.

Speaker 5 14:55

And it's interesting because the reason why I say that is evolved because it has become from Oprah's favorite things when she had the show to have Hayley Beaver has her favorite things and Scarlett Johansson has her favorite things. But about Gail. Kelly Repa has her favorite things. Of course, Gail doesn't have her favorite things.

Speaker 6 15:15

She has her favorite leftovers. Lots of Gail.

unknown 15:18

No.

Speaker 5 15:20

She does have some leftovers. 100%.

Speaker 1 15:24

Well, I have to point out that many of Oprah's favorite things in the commentary about them says it came from Gail or Gail discovered this.

Speaker 6 15:33

Oh, she's always she's probably part of that team. It's really Oprah and Gail's favorite thing. Gail always leads back to Gail. And she's probably the one bringing the things. Just so you guys know this is a feature up, but I met Gail. Yeah. At my local restaurant.

Speaker 1 15:47

You've talked about it before.

Speaker 6 15:48

And this pot? Not on the pot.

Speaker 1 15:50

Yes.

Speaker 6 15:51

Well, we're gonna have to roll back.

Speaker 1 15:52

About the grilled cheese.

Speaker 6 15:53

Grilled cheese. We know about it. Don't know. That's the bound.

Speaker 1 15:58

Well, getting back to Oprah's favorite things. I will support her on some items because they're also my favorite things.

Speaker 5 16:05

Do you have any favorites?

Speaker 1 16:06

Well, one, it is a favorite of mine. It's been on our Link Tree for months. It's the frame TV. If you don't have a frame TV in your life, just talk about it. It's manufactured by Samsung, comes in all sizes. It hangs on your wall. It looks like a picture, and you have all this artwork you can put up there. You can put up Van Gogh's Descasor things from Art Basil. It's amazing. Oh, people have come in my house and said, I love your new artwork. I'm like, oh, it's actually not artwork. It's not actually artwork. It is my friend TV.

Speaker 6 16:40

It is those friends. Did they graduate? Yes. Okay, next. What else do you like?

Speaker 1 16:47

Well, I have more than a comment. I can go then. I can go.

Speaker 6 16:53

I love listen. I love the Brave Pudding slipper, shoe, stockings.

Speaker 17:00

Yeah.

Speaker 6 17:01

I and I actually love those look cute. I do love the name Brave Pudding as well. I don't know why.

Speaker 17:06

You should say what they are.

Speaker 1 17:08

I'm gonna. Oh, okay.

Speaker 6 17:10

They I I kind of already did. They were stockings. They are comfy yet pulled together alternatives to sneakers.

Speaker 17:17

Well, I will say that.

Speaker 6 17:18

So can you walk out outside with them? I think you can do whatever if you want. But like I think, listen, if you want to grab a cup of sugar from your neighbor, these are appropriate.

Speaker 1 17:28

I don't well, I don't know. It's a thick wool sock.

Speaker 5 17:31

No, it's a thick.

Speaker 1 17:33

You haven't explained what they are.

Speaker 5 17:34

It has a full-on sole.

Speaker 6 17:36

Oh listen. Megan. I have explained it. They are brave puddings.

Speaker 17:47

But it isn't to say that it's a wool sock with a leather uh full sole. Yeah. Yeah, a leather full sole.

Tooth Tech: LED Brushes And Whitening

Speaker 6 17:55

Well, here's my story behind it. I saw them, I love them. I wasn't gonna pay $180 for them. It's ridiculous. I found a knockoff. I bought them. I love them. I bought them for all my nieces and nephews for Christmas. I don't think they listen to this much.

Speaker 1 18:11

Let's hope they don't.

Speaker 6 18:12

So there you go. So thank you, Oprah, for inspiring me to find a cheaper version of your brave puddings. Next.

Speaker 1 18:22

Well, I'll say an item I'm really curious about that I really kind of want to buy, but I'm not sure I like it. But I just, it's like speaks to me in ways you just don't know is the sneaks, the tepper, which is a sneaker.

Speaker 4 18:38

I would never see you walking on that.

Speaker 1 18:40

But you know I love my heels, and I love it. You love uh thought of a comfortable heel that feels like a sneaker.

Speaker 6 18:47

She only jogs and wedges. This is this is on brand. That is true. You told me you only and I went on a walk in a wedge and wedged. Ten years ago, I saw you running in a wedge down the road. What are you running if I have to and I'm in a wedge?

Speaker 5 19:06

We were on our way to Megan's. Oh, you were in the car with it. So I'm gonna run with the dog. And she had a pair of wedges.

Speaker 1 19:15

I don't think this is true.

Speaker 5 19:17

100%. 100%.

Speaker 1 19:18

I must have been running with the wedge on, but it wasn't meant to be out for a jog with a wedge.

Speaker 6 19:23

Your words are I can only jog with a wedge.

Speaker 1 19:26

That's never come out of my mouth.

Speaker 6 19:28

God lies a monology.

Speaker 1 19:30

Well, clearly, then I need sneaks the tepper, but that $595 price tag is holding me back.

Speaker 5 19:37

No.

Speaker 1 19:38

But they look like a sneaker, but they're a high heel. Like a very high nut.

Speaker 5 19:43

We hear on the slip it and slip it in. We love a nut.

Speaker 6 19:48

We do love nuts. And a UT. I think a nut has been a through line. It's been a thread through the years.

Speaker 5 19:54

And part of that list is a sabatino truffle nut gift box. Yeah. Yeah. It's four nuts in a box.

Speaker 6 20:02

Wait, four nuts in a box? Yes. What does that run in?

Speaker 5 20:05

Are you in?

Speaker 6 20:06

Well.

Speaker 5 20:07

You're interested.

Speaker 1 20:08

You didn't tell him the keyword. They're all truffle nuts. But that sounds like a threesome.

Speaker 3 20:14

What about two nuts in a box? It's a truffle nuts.

Speaker 5 20:16

Did I get a two nuts? It's a sabbatino truffle nut gift box. It's $80.

Speaker 6 20:21

For two nuts or four?

Speaker 5 20:23

For four. It's a box. And I I'm in. I'm in.

Speaker 1 20:27

I'd like you to buy them because I really want to do that.

Speaker 5 20:30

I probably should just we should buy the our favorite things and we just have in our party with the alien episode of the age of the distortion. Last week, we should just get our Oprah favorite things.

Speaker 6 20:44

We should get our nuts together.

Speaker 5 20:45

We just get on together. Get our nuts together. I am I am. This is one of like my favorite things.

Speaker 1 20:51

I love truffles and I love nuts, but I don't know if I want to have mushroomy nuts. Clip that.

Speaker 6 21:00

Clip that. Dear media, clip that. Wow, a truffle nut. I'm not sure either.

Speaker 1 21:08

And there's four versions of them.

Speaker 6 21:10

Well, then you got some sampling too.

Speaker 1 21:12

And I love a sample name.

Speaker 5 21:13

And another thing that I since you guys are not talking about this, but another thing that I'm actually very interested about on this list is the chocolate chip cookies uh from um Healthcoat Bakery. Those look interesting to me too. I liked it because they're thin cookies. Really? They're chocolate chip, thin cookies, but they're like crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside.

Speaker 6 21:39

I don't think they can be chewy if they're sound good.

Speaker 5 21:43

We would not know until we order them.

Speaker 6 21:45

Listen, the lady down the street that comes to the market on Sundays has a great chocolate chip cookie, too. Like the chocolate chip cookie can be done a million ways, but like Oprah, okay, get them. Well, I'll taste it.

Speaker 1 21:59

Let me tell you, I'm still dreaming about Lexi's Lowe's chocolate chip cookies. Those were amazing.

Speaker 4 22:04

Sourdough cookies, yeah. Salted, the salted one. You love it. I love it.

Speaker 7 22:10

I love a chocolate chip cookie.

Speaker 5 22:12

The Chicago cookie. Yes. And the last thing from my side. Oh, more.

Speaker 6 22:19

You got more. Are these still olive oil?

Speaker 5 22:23

I love olive oil. I grew up on olive oil. I grew up in a town in Spain that we actually had olive trees that we press and we get the olive oil from it. There is an olive oil that she actually added to her list. And Oprah's favorite things for this year is sold out.

Speaker 1 22:42

How much was it though? Because I am curious. I do like a good olive oil, so I'm curious. I might spend money for that.

Speaker 5 22:48

Well, apparently it's about $50 for the 16.9 um ounce. That's a little more.

Speaker 1 22:57

I mean, I do spend money on olive oil, but that's a little more than I typically spend.

Speaker 6 23:01

Butter and olive oil. But I just love olive oil so much. What do you love about it?

Speaker 5 23:07

It's just a it's a it's a taste, it's a smell, it's the flavor of it.

Speaker 6 23:13

Same thing with pearls.

Speaker 5 23:14

It's pretty much pretty much.

Speaker 1 23:18

Don't come from my pearls. So something I do want to comment about is how we talked about how Oprah we question like these are really her favorite things. Like something she has on there that I do believe is her favorite thing, but I think has gotten old and stale. Is she has Sedman?

Speaker 6 23:37

Well, no. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. Whoa, Matty. Wow.

Speaker 1 23:43

Well you're coming for Oprah's life.

Speaker 6 23:45

No, not.

Speaker 1 23:47

She has on there her model, or I think it's Model. It's either mode, it's it's spelled like model, but I think it's pronounced Model Bakery Gift Set, which is this bakery in Napa. And I go to Napa quite regularly. I've never been.

Speaker 6 24:03

Oh, you do?

Speaker 1 24:04

Yes. Never been in my life. Usually once a year.

Speaker 6 24:07

I've been there twice.

Speaker 5 24:08

Can we plan a slippers? Oh, we should.

Speaker 1 24:11

My wine, I have an amazing wine club that has two great events.

Speaker 6 24:15

Oh, I thought she was gonna say have an amazing vineyard there.

Speaker 1 24:18

Well, let me tell you, when I was like five years old, calling myself. When you were penny. When I was penny, my dad was contemplating buying a vineyard in Napa and did not buy it because he thought it was too much.

Speaker 6 24:32

Oh my god, I have so much fact-checking to do.

Speaker 1 24:35

So had that happened, I would be like a beautiful winery owner right now. Yet here you are.

Speaker 6 24:41

And yet, can we just I want to talk about the model bakery?

Speaker 1 24:48

Oprah has known to love their English muffins for years. Like she flies them into her Montecito resort. I love an English muffin. I went to this bakery right at Opie. I was so excited about it. Not a fan of those English muffins. I didn't like that.

Speaker 6 25:07

I've never met an English muffin I didn't like.

Speaker 1 25:09

Well, I'll take you to the model bakery and I don't take me. Yeah. We'll go to Napa. Put me on your dad's.

Speaker 5 25:15

I do want to go to Napa.

Speaker 1 25:16

So I would advise you don't buy this bakery set from her uh web, her Oprah's favorite things.

Speaker 6 25:23

She's coming for you.

Speaker 1 25:24

I am coming for her. So anyway.

Speaker 6 25:26

Gail's about to knock on my door.

Speaker 1 25:27

Well, come on. There's also I'm coming for Oprah. There's one thing.

Speaker 6 25:32

I need more product reviews on Oprah.

Speaker 1 25:34

But I wanted to say something she should have had on her list that she doesn't is the Snow LED whitening electric toothbrush. Now, this is an item I've been using for several months.

Speaker 6 25:48

This is a PSA.

Speaker 1 25:50

Well, no, it's actually we were traveling, and you said I think you need to do a product review about this toothbrush because you were so intrigued by it.

Dating Expertise Debate And Ohio Club Anecdote

Speaker 6 25:58

I might have. And I want it.

Speaker 1 26:00

Well, let me tell you, it's buy one, get one free right now. Oh and I first me and for a guest. I first discovered this over a year ago because I saw all these celebrities were using it on Instagram. I fell for it, but I bought it and I love it and I have used it and I think it's amazing. So this is America's number one LED electric toothbrush.

Speaker 6 26:24

Recording the ADA to whoever.

Speaker 1 26:27

I don't know.

Speaker 6 26:28

Well, you found that. It's a fact on the Snow Website.

Speaker 1 26:31

So Snow's the manufacturer.

Speaker 7 26:34

Okay.

Speaker 1 26:34

And what an LED electric toothbrush is, is you know how you can go to your dentist and get this like professional whitening where they like put they put a thing in your mouth, they put the product on your teeth, and then like light it up and like it really whitens it.

Speaker 3 26:50

Yeah.

Speaker 1 26:50

So this is that same white while you brush your teeth. While you brush your teeth.

Speaker 3 26:55

Oh.

Speaker 1 26:56

So it helps whiten your teeth as you brush them. I love that.

Speaker 6 26:59

What an amazing concept.

Speaker 1 27:01

And it's and it gives you 39,000 sonic vibrations per minute.

Speaker 6 27:06

I love a barbecue. So it helps. And I've been doing 4,000 for the slongest time.

Speaker 1 27:11

Well, you need to upgrade.

unknown 27:13

Yeah.

Speaker 1 27:14

So it helps to remove stains while you brush. And it is uh, I don't I don't have the price offhand. Wow. But it's buy one, get one free. I would say in the back. It's $100. It's buy one, get one free. It comes with but you get two at once.

Speaker 4 27:33

Okay, it's $50.

Speaker 1 27:34

Well, have you ever bought an electric? It changes your life. But electric toothbrushes are typically over $100.

Speaker 3 27:39

$80. If you see a girl with a white toothbrush.

Speaker 1 27:42

Are you oral B?

Speaker 3 27:43

I'm oral B.

Speaker 1 27:44

Let me tell you it's. He's oral. I'm a little B. I know you're oral too. Anyway. But it comes with a great case for traveling. Okay.

Speaker 6 28:06

We got all the comment.

Speaker 1 28:11

So, along with this LED technology in your toothbrush, they also have an LED wireless teeth whitening kit. It's $129.

Speaker 7 28:22

Right.

Speaker 1 28:23

And I also have the magic teeth whitening powder. So you put your toothpaste on your brush and you just sprinkle this powder on. It's $40. And it automatically whitens just a little bit. So, like that coffee you had the day before or that red wine just takes that off. How does it? So it keeps your teeth nice and white. So I believe that Oprah should have curated these types of items that can make a difference in everybody's life and that they can look amazing and look just like the people on TV with pearly beard.

Speaker 6 28:58

I don't know how much you're getting paid for that PSA, but speaking of curation, I'm gonna take it to a different point of view in this episode. Like we are talking things and products and Oprah's favorite things. But what about my favorite things and your favorite things and your not so favorite things? So let's do a little bit of a look back. Like I am a person that has feelings across the board. Um and I'm feeling a particular way on our 30th episode. So why don't we take a moment and we just reflect back for a second? Yeah. And I do have a question. Why don't we go around and just like yeah, go ahead.

Vision For Season Two: Voice, Video, And Vulnerability

Speaker 5 29:53

I'm pleased. I appreciate you saying that because I do have a question, a kind of a reflection question, um, wrapping up our season one. Ever. Season one, here is it.

Speaker 6 30:06

This is it. You guys, this is it.

Speaker 5 30:08

So I have a question for you both. Um, what is one thing that you have been really introduced to uh throughout this season? And every episode. So think about every episode that we every conversation that we've had. What is the one thing that you have been introduced to that you were not really expecting to be a fan of, but now you are a fan of.

Speaker 6 30:32

Greg, you want to go?

Speaker 1 30:34

Yeah, I'll start. So for me, somebody got a chat. It was yeah, we're getting a little ding ding. Ding ding anyway. For me, I was very skeptical when Matty's like, I want you to try this new product that I think is great. Not that I don't trust him because I do, but when it comes to my skin, I'm very particular. I do like have a whole like skin product situation I do every day. And so he says, try this new product. I think it's great. And it was the same polar bear stick, eye stick. Let me tell you, I tried it. I immediately loved it. I still use it, and it's something I'm gifting to numerous people this holiday season.

Speaker 6 31:23

This is crazy because not only you, but like I know, like this is the cutest little add-on gift as well.

Speaker 1 31:31

Like it doesn't look like it's worth anything, right?

Speaker 6 31:34

But it works for a gift where like you have an office gift and you're not spending a lot, but it also works as an add-on gift. And I didn't know how that was gonna explode, but like it's great.

Speaker 1 31:46

It's amazing. And I will say, all I am a big fan of Asian skincare products because I think they have really good skincare products. They also don't allow certain chemicals and things that the U.S. allows in their products.

Speaker 6 32:00

Well, you love polar bears.

Speaker 1 32:02

Well, and I know I do love a polar bear.

Speaker 3 32:04

So yeah.

Speaker 6 32:09

If that doesn't make sense to you, listen to the last episode.

Speaker 1 32:12

Exactly. So it was like it doesn't present itself. It's like Matty says, it looks like a polar bear. It's cute, it doesn't present itself as this high fluid and great skincare product. It doesn't smell it, but it works like a dream. Yeah, it smells great, it feels great, it it actually does look great on you. So like it's it tightens your yeah, yes. I love it, I'm a fan. Try it if you haven't bought it, it's on our link trace. What I use, yeah, thank you.

Speaker 6 32:41

So mine is it's a really complex set of feelings, but I have learned that I have the ability to bake bread.

Speaker 4 32:54

Oh wow, that's a good one.

Speaker 6 32:58

It is like I don't know that I want to bake it again in the future, but it was such an emotional, encouraging journey that I went on because one of my most very recent. Yeah. Yeah. One of my best work friends, or my actually my best work friend, if you're listening, she, Lexi from Lexi's Loves, encouraged me. Like we went on a sourdough journey together. And um I made the bread. Yeah, I thought the bread was very successful. Yeah, it was delicious. I don't know that I can keep it up because for me, it didn't scream hobby for me, but like what it did was like I would have never had that experience if not for this podcast. So I'm forever thankful for that.

Speaker 1 33:55

I think it's great, but did you really think you couldn't make bread?

Slip It In / Pull It Out: Treats, Charging Woes, And Traditions

Speaker 6 33:58

No, I never thought I couldn't. I didn't have the motivation to do it. Okay, and that motivated me to do it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 34:05

Well, I would hope maybe there's a listener out there that also was motivated from the podcast to make bread, and I hope they did and had a great experience.

Speaker 6 34:13

I agree. And like if you if you don't know where to start, go to your local bakery and ask them for some starts. That was like that was the biggest revelation, I guess, of the sourdough baking community. I that was a huge revelation for me. Yeah, for general public, 100%.

Speaker 1 34:34

Okay. Well, speaking of revelations, which now that I think about it, like I had no idea you could go to a baker. I thought people like kind of held hostage their starters. So to me, a bakery who's selling amazing bread would not just freely give out starter. So speaking of revelations, I think we should talk about our most shocking revelations. And for me, honestly, like doing the podcast, like it was shocking when I heard that Matty's dentist kissed him while he was in the chair. That was a lie. Like, I'm still and honestly, and he was fine with it. Well, and I think about it almost weekly. I'm gonna years after.

Speaker 5 35:20

Well, you did not say a word about it.

Speaker 1 35:22

Yeah, no one knew about it.

Speaker 6 35:24

Well, like if you are a new listener and you don't know the details, I need to frame this. That's a lot. I need to frame this because this is on a my list of top tens of probably like five categories. I don't know how to put it in words, other than to say that I sat in a dentist chair and my dentist came into the room and kissed me on the cheek, and it was very like shocking to me, but like I didn't keep it a secret because I was ashamed of it or anything, but I just well my face turned out.

Speaker 1 36:02

We shouldn't have been ashamed of it, it's just it's really weird.

Speaker 6 36:06

But here's what I here's what I was saying, I don't know what episode or podcast episode it was. It was probably four or five. Yeah, probably but when I put it out there and I said it out loud, not thinking the fan mail, everybody was like, What the fuck just happened? Well, the flippers were shot and the friends and stuff like and I would not kept this a secret from any of you guys, any of you two here or our extended friend group. I just it just was a thing that happened, and then the minute I said it out loud, there was so much reaction to it, yeah, and it was. I'm like, wow, maybe that wasn't appropriate. I don't know.

Speaker 1 36:50

I don't know, but it was it was a lot, it's highly inappropriate. It's so it is.

Speaker 6 36:55

If I I guess when I look back, and especially with the type of things that make the headlines up, but like it felt very innocent to me. Like it might I still go to her, yeah.

Speaker 1 37:07

I yeah, which is still crazy to me.

Speaker 6 37:09

Well, no, because I don't I didn't I did not, I will say on the record, I did not feel in any way, shape, or form like that that intruded. Well, maybe my per maybe the right cheek is a little maybe the right cheek is a little upset. I don't know, but like I would like it was innocent in my mind, but like it did create if it happened to me, I would probably change dentists. Well, yeah, I can probably like if a man, yes, if a male dentist came into your room and kissed you on the cheek, yes, I would encourage you to.

Speaker 1 37:42

What if it was a female dentist?

Speaker 6 37:45

I know, I don't know why. I know it's a great conversation. I don't think that she should she would have done that to you, but I don't know why would she do it to him?

Speaker 1 37:53

Like that's just insane.

Speaker 6 37:54

It felt like it felt in that moment so genuine and like like I've been going to her for 10 years. I know, but she I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 5 38:06

But that's all it's not if you feel that way, slipper, I'm not gonna file.

Speaker 6 38:11

Send us a text message. I'm not gonna file listen. Does she know you're gay? Beep, beep, beep, beep. Dennis, then class action me.

Speaker 1 38:19

Does she know you're gay?

Speaker 6 38:21

Oh, 100%.

Speaker 5 38:22

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She knows. She knows of my I mean that makes it slightly. One of the shocking revelations, just transitioning from the dentist. Yes. Okay, because we can have another episode just about the dentist. Yeah, we've both gone up. One of the shocking revelations to me was when Megan revealed that she is a dating expert.

Speaker 1 38:41

I stand by it. I mean, okay.

Speaker 6 38:45

I'm here. I'm here to play the middleman.

Speaker 5 38:48

She's been in a relationship for quite some time, and I get that.

Speaker 6 38:52

Why don't we let her state for the how many how long? How much time to the argument?

Speaker 38:58

We have time. Twelve years.

Speaker 6 38:59

12 years. So, like, how do you know the latest dating? I'll give you that. No, I'll give you the. I want to let JJ finish because I just took over. I apologize. I apologize. I apologize.

Speaker 5 39:12

No, I'm I'm just saying that it's it was just I get it before the doctor that she feels that she was she was really in a research uh on like she was in a research project. She did the whole hundred dates and plus dates in a year and all that thing, and I get it. I don't I didn't get that that would give her the award of the best or one of the best dating experts. It was just like shocking. I mean, the question is just what's the show. No, I'm not.

Speaker 1 39:46

Well, let me first clear it. I never said I'm the best. I've never said I'm the best. I just said I'm a dating expert. Not the best dating expert, a dating expert.

Speaker 7 39:57

Yeah.

Chosen Family, Hiatus Plans, And How To Reach Us

Speaker 1 39:58

I think when you Went through what I did for 10 years, 10 plus years on they weren't always apps then, they were websites, et cetera. But going out, meeting people, putting yourself out there, how you get that look at the people from a profile to meeting them to whatever. I consider myself a dating expert. And I also learned a lot about myself in that process, as well as I like that. About what drives you and what you're looking for. And things change when you see someone you really like on a dating app, you have a great first date talk. I get it. So I'm just saying, speak your piece. I do think I have amazing, great dating advice, and I have a lot to offer in that area.

Speaker 5 40:53

So anyone who's having dating issues, right now whenever I have a concern or a question, I do gravitate towards like, hey Megan, I'm going through this. Yes. I've I've been I've had moments. I've had moments, and I'm like, hey Megan, can you take a moment? I want to walk through this. And she does. Yeah.

Speaker 1 41:17

And Matty, she's a little bit more than a little bit.

Speaker 5 41:18

She always has a moment. She always has a moment.

Speaker 1 41:20

I always have time for my friends. And if you think about it, I've also offered you commentary and face.

Speaker 6 41:25

She's been very like situation. No one can hear on the card.

Speaker 1 41:29

Well, okay. You've also had your own dating commentary over the years, and I've offered you insight and advice a couple years ago.

Speaker 5 41:39

I actually I actually appreciate that. So that's one of the things that I talked about.

Speaker 6 41:44

I am gonna go off the rails with like who again. You know, I consider myself a very busy person. I have a job, I have a home, I have a yard, I have a lot of responsibilities, and yet some people can finger bang for three days a week.

Speaker 1 42:09

Through the secret club in Ohio.

Speaker 6 42:12

Ohio people are can just That's so Ohio. I found that, isn't that the category I'm in? The most shocking revolution revelation.

Speaker 1 42:24

Like it was shocking.

Speaker 6 42:26

I did not know this little club hanging out behind the Ohio municipal building.

Speaker 5 42:33

Listen, Andy still is asking for Susan to call back.

Speaker 6 42:39

I'm sure that came out. I'm showing the other day. I am also asking.

Speaker 5 42:44

The other day there were like some like not so good calls, and he's like, I wish Susan from Ohio would call in for a finger banging cop.

Speaker 6 42:53

I need I need Susan to call me. And I want to know Susan, how many kids do you have? Do you have a significant partner? Do you have a lawn? Do you have to mow? Do you have to shovel? Do you have to wait?

Speaker 5 43:07

I know everything about her.

Speaker 6 43:09

How are you finger banging three days a week? I do not know.

Speaker 5 43:13

Oh my god, yes. 100%.

Speaker 6 43:14

Alright, so that for me, I've lost a lot of sleep.

Speaker 5 43:18

Oh my god, I've lost a lot of sleep.

Speaker 6 43:20

Oh my god.

Speaker 43:21

I totally agree. I totally agree.

Speaker 5 43:23

You have a question for us, Matty? Me? That's your turn.

Speaker 6 43:27

Yes. I want to ask you two, as we transition from season one to season two, like, what do you guys see as like the vision for you and what you want our podcast to be? And like, what do you think that could happen with us and for us and as a gruppa? What we could just like accomplish next year. Like, what do you what would fulfill your soul in 2026?

Speaker 5 44:05

I think that I personally want to find and connect with the most unhinged unraveled people. No aspect of JJ.

Speaker 6 44:20

Oh, oh, I love that. Yes, exciting time.

Speaker 5 44:24

I wanna connect with whatever.

Speaker 6 44:26

You're just gonna let it I wanna let it lose.

Speaker 5 44:28

Light your freak.

Speaker 6 44:29

I think that's called Light Your Freak Fly Flag Fly.

Speaker 5 44:33

Yes, yes. Because I think that with the first season, I'm like always like worried about my accent, worry about like the way that I portray myself. But you know what? I showed off. So I'm like, no. Can I say something about that? People like who I am, how the way I am, and that's it. I love that. Embrace it.

Speaker 6 44:54

We love that so much. And I hate my voice when I've heard it back, and all the times I say like, I just it's so crazy to me to hear it back. So I hear you, and I want that for you.

Speaker 5 45:08

I want to embrace it. I think you I mean, what buckle?

Speaker 6 45:12

We only have one mic. Buckle. Buckle up.

Speaker 5 45:14

Quick in the house 2026, full on on JJ's stop.

Speaker 6 45:18

Yeah. I'm excited.

Speaker 5 45:19

Oh, look at you with the sexy wise.

Speaker 6 45:22

Well, tell us. Tell us about please expand. Tell us.

Speaker 1 45:26

Oh, I will. But anyway, first I need to comment. Like, everyone loves your accent. Like, we're Americans. We love an accent.

Speaker 4 45:33

So well, 50%. 50. It's a six-seven.

Speaker 1 45:37

You think 50% don't want an accent?

Speaker 6 45:40

I oh shoot. I shouldn't have a can of worms.

Speaker 1 45:45

Well, I'm no, I just think that like anytime you need an attractive man and there's 100% in this room loves him. Oh, I am too. I'm like, oh, oh, if you're if you're beige and brown, girl, beige and brown. And add an accent. All right, 75. All right, go. Okay. Anyway, so I think what I'm looking forward most to the new year is. I think we're going to add some video with the podcast.

Speaker 6 46:16

I think we are.

Speaker 1 46:16

And I think that's going to really just add more to the genre because you're going to see us and the shenanigans that are happening with our facial expressions and everything else as we go forward. But I think also like I do want to comment in a more um reflective way is that this has been a huge learning experience for me. And like I, being a lawyer, I'm used to being more direct in dealing with people. And I think what I've learned through this experience is I need to be softer with my code podcasters. Oh my god. And that sometimes being too direct and too quick, I don't think anything of it. I'm answering the question. I'm moving on. We're like, got a lot to get done. Like it comes across as snapping. It's something they don't like to hear. They think I'm barking orders at them. And in reality, I'm just in my head. I'm trying to get through all the shit we're trying to get done. And so I learn more about myself with this podcast that I can't be in the same work environment. And I think when I'm in a work environment, I temper myself because I don't act that same way. But when I'm with my like closest best friends, like unhinged. I can be unhinged. And they aren't gonna like not talk to me and they're not gonna flip it.

Speaker 5 47:43

We're gonna love, we're crenched, you will slip it in.

Speaker 1 47:47

Exactly. So that's my hope for the new year in the pod.

Speaker 5 47:51

What about you, Matty?

Speaker 6 47:52

Wow, I love that Megan so much. I really am like kind of lost for words because mine is similar, but um, I didn't expect you to say that. But and I'm so thankful and loving of both of you. Like the journey for me on this year has been life-saving, to be honest. Like, okay, I'm going off my own script. Uh, in the fact that like sometimes I just feel like I am a little bit lonely or a little bit like the person maybe somebody doesn't call and invite. And I get that my closest friends live a little far away. And so the ones that are local are I mean, like, I don't know. It just it's weird. It's just weird. So to have this connection with you two is so important to me. It just means the world to me, and I can't wait to go into season two. I mean, I feel like season two is saying it out loud, it's kind of cool. That's crazy. And uh, what I have written down for this question is showing another side of our personalities. And I think the first year, like this year, we have I mean, like, it's authentic. What you got from us is authentic, 100% authentic. But I hope that in season two, like, you get to learn a little bit about us in another realm, like another aspect, another side of us, something you maybe didn't anticipate. And I just think that was illustrated with what Megan just said. So I think I want more of that.

Speaker 1 49:45

Yeah, absolutely. We're here to be ourselves and to be our authentic people and give us hook, line, and sinker, good, bad, otherwise, we're here and we're gonna tell you our thoughts, whether you want it or not. But we hope you want it because you're listening. And it's gonna be like really authentic.

Speaker 6 50:06

It's us, it's just unfiltered, right?

Speaker 1 50:08

If video comes in, which is I know I'm gonna have to up my outfit game.

Speaker 6 50:14

I'm gonna have to, I'm gonna have to change my clothes.

Speaker 1 50:17

Exactly.

Speaker 6 50:18

That's another learning.

Speaker 1 50:19

Well, okay, let's I think with that, it's time to slip it in and pull it out.

Speaker 6 50:23

I know one more time for the season one finale. 2025. Yep. Slip it ins, pull it outs. Yes.

Speaker 1 50:33

Well, it kind of, I feel like my slip it in, like I feel like these should be a little more grandiose than they are. They're kind of pretty standard slip it ins and pull it outs. But my slip it in is this is a one-time a year situation. Pepperage Farm releases a limited edition flavor.

Speaker 50:53

Another product comes in.

Speaker 1 50:56

Well, because I honestly, I discovered these a couple years ago, and then they like I look for them every year. They are Pepperge Farm Amaretto Hot Chocolate Milano cookies.

Speaker 6 51:09

Oh, I saw them on my con.

Speaker 1 51:11

I brought some today. So I went like only a couple places sell them. Target is one, usually Walgreens, CVS sell them. Anyway, they're a limited edition flavor, they only come out at the holidays. They're amazing. I love them. So that's my slip it in that I was able to buy several packages. I learned after I bought them from the first time a couple years ago. When I see them, I buy like 10 packages because like they do not come out later. Anyway, they're amazing. I love them. So my pull it out is I have a hybrid vehicle. It's a plug-in hybrid. And I will say I'm not reliant 100% on charging stations, but I do like to go to a grocery store or Target or other places I travel. If they have charging stations, I like to plug in and charge while I shop.

Speaker 5 52:05

100%.

Speaker 1 52:06

Well, these charging stations, like, thank God I'm not a fully electric person because I went up working, a charging station, and I'm not trying to say bad things about Meijer because I go to another charging station at a Meyer at a different Meyer and they work and they're amazing. But I went to one, they had the high-powered charging that charges my hybrid in like 15 minutes. I plugged in, I couldn't get it to work. I kept messing with it. Finally, like during my time, four fully EV cars came and tried to charge, had the same issues. They it clearly wasn't working.

Speaker 6 52:43

Oh really?

Speaker 1 52:43

So I went into Meyer.

Speaker 6 52:45

We don't have a pigly wig. Well, I went, I know.

Speaker 1 52:47

I went into Meyer and I told them at customer service, like, this is a that's a mistake. No, they said nobody wanna come out. They came out, they're like, we don't really know how this works. Like they didn't have an EV, they didn't know. And I'm like, look, this is the fourth guy with a fully EV who's just come up to the city.

Speaker 6 53:06

Do you think you could put a note in your notebook for 2022?

Speaker 1 53:09

Well, I told them, put a sign up. This is not working.

Speaker 6 53:13

Right. Have that go over.

Speaker 1 53:14

They looked at me like I'm a crazy girl. Sounds about right. Yeah, meanwhile. There's six of us who have not been able to charge. Meanwhile. They still wouldn't put, they just said, oh, we're gonna call it in and make it. All right.

Speaker 6 53:26

We're leaving on a positive note, so I'm gonna go now.

Speaker 1 53:30

My pull it out is charging stations that aren't working and employees who won't listen to you when you tell them, put a note up here. These are out of order.

Speaker 6 53:41

I love it. Right. She is on brand. Well, is it me or you? You okay? Here's what I'm gonna say as my slip it in. I love Tuesday friendship comments. I post our pod on Mondays, and the whole little network goes out, and I get messages on Tuesdays like nobody's busy.

Speaker 3 54:13

Oh, really?

Speaker 6 54:14

Uh yeah. The people that I get them and they're like, oh my god, I can't. Oh my god, this oh creature feature.

Speaker 3 54:23

I I love and I fucking hate a Tuesday.

Speaker 6 54:27

I fucking like what does a Tuesday do for you? Tell me. Tell me what a Tuesday does for you.

Speaker 1 54:33

Oh, it's one more day towards the weekend.

Speaker 6 54:35

Yeah, but it's it's better than a Monday. Nobody all the things is that it wishes that can be. Yeah, but I get messages. I see what you I'm getting messages of like, I love that. That made me happy. I love that. So Tuesday messages as a result of launching Monday podcast is my slip it in.

Speaker 6 54:54

Like intentionally, we're gonna put this on pause so we can enjoy Christmas with family and friends, you guys included. That we're not this isn't orchestrated. We are gonna be together as well around the holidays, but we're gonna pause it for like two to three to four weeks or whatever. And I'm just gonna miss this moment, this experience, and this camaraderie. Yeah.

Speaker 1 55:33

Speaker 7 56:01
