Speaker 1have, what have you done? What have, what have, what have you done this week? Um, sounds like a song. I just remembered I have to do a limerick for today and I haven't thought about anything. Um, I just started it so you think I have to work.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh, you poor. Thing. Yeah, you only have three days.
Speaker 1Yeah, and how much work did you do last weekend?
Speaker 2I put in some effort.
Speaker 1Yeah, you put in the ending in several places.
Speaker 2All throughout the episode Like little Easter eggs. Yeah, perfect for Easter. Barely noticeable, yeah, yeah, that was good places all throughout the episode like little easter eggs. Yeah, perfect for easter barely noticeable yeah, yeah, that was, that was good um but you fixed it I tried and then I listened to it again and it was not fixed. So yeah, weird, very cool yeah um anything exciting to tell me about your week.
Speaker 1Oh.
Speaker 2How was your week?
Speaker 1Oh, my week was pretty good. I think I don't remember much of it. It wasn't standard week.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1And your week.
Speaker 2I know that I did take your knees swimming last weekend.
Speaker 1Oh yeah.
Speaker 2I brought them with me. Just your knees, it was my legs, no it's just your knees.
Speaker 1Just the them with me. Just your knees, it was my legs?
Speaker 2No, it's just your knees, just the kneecaps.
Speaker 1Yeah, but you had to. You know, detach my legs to get the kneecaps, yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah. So, so I took your niece to the swimming pool with my children and we went swimming and it was cold but they seemed damn fun. Good, uh, this week has been rough, rough okay, why? Because I feel myself giving up on trying to lose weight. I'm frustrated and I just uh, I'm sick of of starving. If there's anything in this world that I love to do, it's eating.
Speaker 1Eating is my favorite thing ever yeah, it's very good, I like it too and when losing weight.
Speaker 2I'm told to not do that so much so then I feel like I'm starving all the time.
Speaker 1I mean, I guess you can eat stuff that's not that very good Vegetables.
Speaker 2They're still good.
Speaker 1Yeah, but not as good as candy sugar stuff. Yeah, I don't know it's just, it's frustrating if you're telling me that vegetables is better than candy, and I never said that.
Speaker 2No no, I'm also saying that they're not gross no they're just not as good exactly.
Speaker 1You still want some of that candy stuff.
Speaker 2Yeah, so in my giving in phase I ate up my snack stash.
Speaker 1Yeah, I helped you a little bit, you did.
Speaker 2And I'm completely okay with that because during this process of not eating and having a snack stash there, it's very tempting.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Just reach in and eat everything.
Speaker 1And.
Speaker 2I gave in to that and I did exactly that. I ate everything.
Speaker 1Yeah, so you could get rid of it.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'll try again next week, whatever.
Speaker 1Yeah, so that was for a good purpose.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was in the end, so I'm going to try again again next week.
Speaker 1See how that goes. You have to be bad in order to be better exactly.
Speaker 2Yeah, I like that. That's good. Yeah, it's like. Um, it reminds me of when I try to clean. Yeah, I end up making an even bigger mess before well in my process of cleaning because, I have to take everything out and lay it out and sort and if you just walk in on me cleaning, it looks like I made an even bigger mess.
Speaker 1But I have to make it messier in order to make it cleaner yeah, it's gonna be even better yeah than if you hadn't done that exactly makes sense In order to make it cleaner.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's going to be even better after yeah Than if you hadn't done that Exactly.
Speaker 1Yeah, makes sense. Thank you. Thank you, boy. Do we sound smart today?
Speaker 2So smart.
Speaker 1It was perfect, so smart.
Speaker 2You're so good at this. We had the day off today.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Did you do anything exciting? Oh yeah, okay, I was watching YouTube.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, okay, I was watching YouTube. Oh yeah, cool yeah, and was doing the deed with my sister's cats.
Speaker 2Wow, that's weird.
Speaker 1No, I was looking after them.
Speaker 2You just looked at them.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And thought about doing the deed.
Speaker 1Just looking at them.
Speaker 2That's enough.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's enough for me alright, you were taking care of them yes, I did, because my sister and her family is away for the holidays. Easter, easter holidays was that you?
Speaker 2I don't know. That was you, that's you.
Speaker 1That was me, it's not me okay, because I felt that one okay yeah, well, the other one before that, I didn't feel no, but it was still you okay sure it was.
Speaker 2what else did you do today other than doing the deed with the cats?
Speaker 1I don't remember. I don't think I did much. I went to this place. We had half a movie day and a movie night.
Speaker 2Very cool.
Speaker 1Yeah, I ate dinner.
Speaker 2You did.
Speaker 1I was the only one.
Speaker 2Yep, because earlier today I went Easter egg hunting with my kids and they got to find a like egg ornament and trade it in for a bag of candy. It's very fun. My daughter found three eggs. She stole three eggs and she turned them in and still only got one bag of candy. She expected to get three. It's supposed to be one bag of candy per. Expected to get three. Yeah, it's supposed to be one bag of candy per kid.
Speaker 1It doesn't matter how many eggs they find oh, okay it's to be fair uh, so was she the only one I doubt it uh, so the boys didn't get in, or?
Speaker 2they did, yeah, okay, but she was expecting three bags.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah yeah, okay, I was thinking, if she got three eggs she could have helped them.
Speaker 2Uh, get one, yeah I think my oldest had already found one, though okay, okay he said that he saw an egg, like when he was very far away from it. Okay, from afar. So yeah, it was that. And then we went to my life partner's mom's and we had a big Easter lunch, and so I was not very hungry for the rest of the day. I ate a lot, because that's what I like to do. I like to eat a lot.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2It's my favorite thing.
Speaker 1Have you ever said that? I don't think you have? I really don't think so Maybe you should I have no memory of this.
Speaker 2Maybe I should say it more often.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2It's my favorite thing is eating.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, when people are talking about fasting and stuff, you should say that.
Speaker 2That frustrates me. So today, when you came over after I got home and picked you up and got back here, we watched Sly. Yes we did the documentary of Sylvester Stallone.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2I really thought I was going to mess up his first name.
Speaker 1Slyvester.
Speaker 2Stallone, slyvester. Stalloneester salone salone, salone because he's alone, or something sly vestry salone vestry sly vestry vestry sly vestry salone yeah um what did you think? About that one yeah, tell me all of your thoughts.
Speaker 1I mean it was good, so it's time to move on.
Speaker 2Hold on, hold on, okay, don't get ahead of yourself. Calm down.
Speaker 1Okay, but this is a movie, though it's a documentary, but it's a movie, isn't it?
Speaker 2I guess, Okay, not official. Do I have to go back?
Discussion of Wheels on Meals
Speaker 1no, okay uh, okay, sly, I thought this movie was yeah. Well, yeah, it's not a movie. I thought, no, I no, I thought it was a book, but it turned out to be a movie. Who knew? I thought I was going to read the screen the whole time. You didn't, I did, yeah, but it wasn't just, it was picture book.
Speaker 2Oh, a moving picture book.
Speaker 1Yeah, a moving picture book. Oh, a moving picture book. Yeah, a moving picture book. So yeah, Do you want to know what I thought about this movie?
Speaker 2Tell me what happened.
Speaker 1Okay, it was a boovy.
Speaker 2I don't think it was no.
Speaker 1No, it was a movie. No, it was about his life, slife, slife.
Speaker 2Slife.
Speaker 1His life and career.
Speaker 2What His life being Sylvester Stallone? Yeah, as if he was someone else.
Speaker 1Arnold was there and he was really funny.
Speaker 2He was funny. Everything, he said was funny.
Speaker 1Yeah, you were laughing so much.
Speaker 2Every time he talked I laughed.
Speaker 1He didn't even say anything funny.
Speaker 2It's just how he talks. It makes me laugh yeah.
Speaker 1So I mean, I think it was kind of interesting, but I think it could have been longer because, uh, you didn't get too much about other his other work than rocky and Rambo.
Speaker 2I wanted more of his personal life.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, that too. But when it came to his career it was mostly about Rocky. I mean, I get that Rocky was the biggest thing in his career and all that, but I still wanted them to, you know, say something more about the other movies he made and, yeah, I guess, more about his career too and about his son. They just barely touched on what happened to his son. They didn't even say what?
Speaker 2They didn't say anything. What happened?
Speaker 1No, they just okay. Yeah, he passed away. They didn't even say anything, it just they just okay.
Speaker 2yeah, he passed away, okay well, they didn't even say anything, it just had the dates.
Speaker 1Yeah, that was it it was pretty, you know, strongly implied that he died.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Though since it said 2012. Yeah 1976 to 2012.
Speaker 2That's what I'm saying. They didn't say anything, but it was written.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2No one said anything about him being dead.
Speaker 1No.
Speaker 2Or even what happened? No, anything.
Speaker 1No, I read about it so I knew. But yeah, it could have been so much more and yeah, I think it was too short.
Speaker 2I mean Arnold had three. What movie-length episodes of his documentary.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And this was rough. 90 minutes of Stallone. Yeah, the Rocky part definitely could have been trimmed quite a bit. We didn't really have to go through all six of them. Seven.
Speaker 1Yeah, six rocky movies. Then he, it went on to creed, but those weren't. Those were more about another character didn't mention that either. No, went into rambo yeah, five of those yeah and they only were talking about the first one and the last one really.
Speaker 2Yeah. What I thought was very weird was his father. Seemed like such a weird guy who successful. The dad wanted to compete with his son with pretty much a script.
Speaker 1That was the same, yeah, or a screenplay that was the same as rocky. Yeah, sunny sunny yeah, yeah weird, all right so weird and yeah, and I didn't know about the horse polo thing.
Speaker 2Oh yeah. Whatever it was called, I think it was polo.
Speaker 1Yeah, just polo, not Marco.
Speaker 2No, marco wasn't there, it was just polo by himself. Yeah.
Speaker 1So that's where polo is.
Speaker 2That's where he is.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Riding horsies.
Speaker 1So yeah, um, it was okay. I wasn't the biggest fan, but it was okay. I got some glimpses into his life, but I wanted more.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1And you Do, you want to add something.
Speaker 2I think I already sprinkled in my thoughts. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1So you don't have anything else to add.
Speaker 2No, no, no, still on, it was good sprinkles. Yeah, they were good sprinkles. You don't have anything else to add. No, no, no, stallone.
Speaker 1It was good sprinkles.
Speaker 2Yeah, they were good sprinkles. I do like sprinkles. I'm going to sprinkle some more Because we had Rhinestone on the movie night list. It's already passed. Yes, we've already seen it. It was when Stallone and Dolly Parton were singing together and we had a thunderstorm that night.
Speaker 1Oh yeah.
Speaker 2With so much lightning. And the lightning was so close to us and I had to bring you home.
Speaker 1Oh yeah.
Speaker 2You almost got struck by lightning Did.
Speaker 1I.
Speaker 2It looked like it and you were like so excited, like whoa, look at that. I was like go inside, go it was cool it was cool, but go inside before you get struck by lightning.
Speaker 1Yeah, then I did, and you got struck.
Speaker 2No no.
Speaker 1You could have.
Speaker 2I could have. Either of us could have.
Speaker 1Yeah, you were taking me in the car, right.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah we weren't walking there. No, no way, All right, well, it's Friday.
Speaker 1It is.
Speaker 2It's March 29th.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2It's the 70th episode, yeah that's a good number would you like to movie on?
Speaker 1let's do that. Let's move away from the movie.
Speaker 2Documentary movie well, it doesn't count if it's not on the movie night list.
Speaker 1No, okay, so so tonight now it's time to move on.
Speaker 2Now.
Speaker 1Let's move-y on.
Speaker 2All right Tonight we watched Meals on Wheels. No, Wheels on Meals.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2Sorry, my bad.
Speaker 1It's okay.
Speaker 2Jackie's gonna kill me.
Speaker 1Yes probably Because I said it wrong, but I told you before why Can you please enlighten me on why it's called wheels on meals instead of meals on wheels?
Speaker 2because jackie had a few movies in which the title started with an m. Like the movies, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1The movies. Yeah yeah. Movie one, movie two, yeah.
Speaker 2Movie the first and this movie the sequel.
Speaker 1Yeah, the production company had them.
Speaker 2Yeah, and they started with the letter M but they flopped. They didn't do great, no, so they were like this one's going to be called Meals on Wheels and Jackie was like no Wheels on Meals. So because he's superstitious, Like that yeah. Yeah, so we watched that.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And we also watched Enchanted. We did yeah. So now I would like to present to you my take on Wheels on Meals.
Speaker 1Please do.
Speaker 2This is a very sad movie because next week is our last Jackie Chan movie. In this movie, Jackie Chan is there.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2He has a friend and they run a food truck together and they run into a girl who is kind of a hooker yeah but she doesn't really do the hooking, she just steals money, because that's the term hooking yeah, no hooking for me tonight no, she doesn't do the hooking, she just steals money and uh, people don't like that, so they don't like her no, they gave her bad reviews gave her bad reviews.
Speaker 1Yeah, and they were like uh, not enough hooking not enough hooking and I leave without my wallet yeah it's a problem.
Speaker 2One star, one star. There's also Samu Hung yeah, who is an agent of some form.
Speaker 1Private detective.
Speaker 2Private detective. He detectives the privates.
Speaker 1Yep, all of them.
Speaker 2All of them and the hookers, yeah, no, they don't really get together. She hits him, his car, with her car.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2That's the only hitting they did.
Speaker 1And then she kneed him.
Speaker 2She kneed him and stole his wallet.
Speaker 1Yeah, Later on she kneed him in the crotch.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Nether regions.
Speaker 2Nether regions.
Speaker 1Yeah, in his privates.
Speaker 2In the private detectives, yeah, privates, yeah, and he, I don't know, gets into some kind of trouble or is trying to crack a case. And then there's bad guys and jackie helps to beat up the bad guys.
Speaker 1She's part of the case.
Speaker 2Yeah, because she steals stuff or she was part of something at some point in life. Yeah, and so Jackie beats up bad guys in the end. Yeah okay, thank you.
Speaker 1That was my time, very good, thank you. What did you think about the movie?
Speaker 2It was a good movie. It was a good movie, it was a good movie.
Speaker 1Okay, I mean, this isn't like a trial or anything. Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?
Speaker 2I do.
Speaker 1So help you guy.
Speaker 2So help me, guy, you mouthed me, do so, help you guy. So help me, guy, you mouth me. Um, the movie was good, wow, and also good. It was also good and um, yeah, good, thank you. Uh, there, there were some pretty fun stunts in this movie, and Jackie Chan was also in this movie, and Samu Hung and some other guys in other movies that I definitely could name, which was very cool, and Benny and the Jets. Oh yeah, was also there, that's all.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2I enjoyed the movie.
Speaker 1You did, I did Good, good, I did, because I really do, I also do.
Speaker 2Tell me your thoughts.
Speaker 1Okay, I really like this movie. I've seen another version of this movie that doesn't have the music that was playing in this one and this is the music I was growing up with for this movie. That doesn't have the music that was playing in this one and this is the music I was growing up with for this movie. So I'm so happy I found this version, because because the other one just has so weird music, um, anyhow, uh, yes, as you said, I really like actors from other movies that you know, like Jackie Samu and Jun Jun Me, jun, okay, jun, I'm not really sure how to pronounce his name.
Speaker 2That's okay.
Speaker 1He's a cool dude, and also when the girl. She's also in Armor of God.
Speaker 2Lola.
Speaker 1Lola Forner.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1And the bad guy Benny the Jet Orchides. He's the bad guy in Dragons Forever. Very cool, great bad guy, yeah. So I really like this movie Very funny. Good fight scenes, good stunts yeah. Classic Jackie Chan classic yeah. I don't know if I can add much more than that. Did you have a favorite fight or anything? Favorite part of the movie?
Speaker 2I liked the skateboarding. That was fun to watch. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Kind of missed opportunity that they didn't use skateboard while fighting.
Speaker 2Yeah, I also liked when he was climbing the wall with the stick. Yeah, that was cool, it was cool.
Speaker 1Yeah, and I have to say that I really like his last fight with Benny the Jet Arquides Remember that name?
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah. And when he was kicking, jackie was ducking and he blew the candles out with the kick yeah, it was cool, that is cool um, yeah, uh, okay, so that that fight was my favorite part can you remind me what the movies were that started with m? I think one, I remember one, was it called Megaforce.
Speaker 2Megaforce, megaforce.
Speaker 1Okay, and that was the guy from Rocky Horror was the star in that one.
Speaker 2Which guy?
Speaker 1Barry.
Speaker 2Bostwick yeah.
Speaker 1Okay, so that movie maybe we have to watch. Maybe, Watch sometime. I don't remember. I think it must have been at least one or maybe two more movies, but I don't remember them. Yeah, that one I remember because it starred him.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, mm-hmm.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Should we move on to?
Speaker 2Enchanted. Enchanted. Tell me about Enchanted.
Speaker 1It starts as a cartoon and it's about this princess. She's living the life, she's really happy and singing, and all the animals are her friends. And, yeah, the only one who's not happy is the queen, the evil queen and also her minion.
Speaker 2You could say that, yeah.
Speaker 1But he's kind of funny and she wants to get rid of the princess and makes her go to the real world, our world, to New York.
Speaker 2That's not our world.
Speaker 1No, but it's part of our world World.
Speaker 2Part of our world. It's not, it is.
Speaker 1Or do you think New York is a fantasy place or what?
Speaker 2It might be.
Speaker 1Okay, have you ever been there?
Speaker 2Yeah. So you shouldn't think that I was pushed into a different world.
Speaker 1If anyone should think that it should be me right.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Or maybe, since you've been there, you know how it is, and maybe it's another world there.
Speaker 2I don't remember. Okay, it was a long time ago.
Speaker 1Oh, several months ago.
Speaker 2No more than that.
Speaker 1Oh, so it's more recent than months.
Speaker 2No more months.
Speaker 1Okay, so it's several months, many, many months. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2All the months, yeah.
Speaker 1Since you were there, yeah it's been all the months.
Speaker 2Yeah, makes sense.
Speaker 1Okay, so we're so good at this.
Speaker 2How did you feel about the movie?
Speaker 1I really liked this movie.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1It's a cute movie. I don't remember any of the songs, but I didn't dislike any of the songs either.
Speaker 2They were pretty good songs actually.
Speaker 1Yeah, they're Disney songs, of course they're good yeah exactly, but I don't remember what they were called or anything like that.
Speaker 2You will, I will, you will, yeah, one day.
Speaker 1So I can't really say which one was my favorite, but I did like them. Do you have a favorite song?
Speaker 2There's not many that I can recall okay but I like the one that. Um, you know, she started singing and then the street musicians started playing along with her.

Speaker 2That is.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2All right, mattias.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2I have a problem and I'm hoping that you can solve my problem. Okay, probably not Okay, probably not.
Speaker 1Yeah, förmodligen inte.
Speaker 2Oh, what was the other one you said today, upplevelse.
Speaker 1Upplevelse.
Speaker 2Oh.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 2My problem is that I've been living here in Sweden for almost 10 years.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And I found that I don't know the culture that well, the traditions and such.
Speaker 1No.
Speaker 2Swedish Easter is not like American Easter.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 2And I just kind of accepted that without really looking into the background or what any of it means. So can you please educate me today? And tell me the story of Swedish Easter.
Speaker 1I can try.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1I don't know how fun it's going to be, but I will try.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Okay, so the week before Easter or this week yeah, it's called Stillaveckan.
Speaker 2The still week. Yeah, the calm week Okay.
Speaker 1Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 2So it's supposed to be calm.
Speaker 1Passionsveckan Ooh, passion week.
Speaker 2Those are two completely different things.
Speaker 1It is Please tell me more. Or tysta veckan. That's the quiet, that's quiet, quiet Okay.
Speaker 2Either it's peaceful, there's passion, or it's quiet.
Speaker 1Yeah, or all three, maybe, I don't know.
Speaker 2I'm not sure, how that works, but okay.
Speaker 1Before we go into the more Easter thing, I have to tell you something sad.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1This past Tuesday was the. That's the last day to eat semlas.
Speaker 2That's really unfortunate. Yeah, what bad timing for me, yeah, so now the. There's no more semla at all.
Speaker 1I'm sure they are still selling. Yeah, but no, you know, historically it was supposed to be like the last day of semlas in Sweden, so this past Tuesday, that is sad.
Speaker 2Yeah, should we have a moment of silence for the semla?
Speaker 1I think so Okay.
Speaker 2That's good. That's enough silence for now.
Speaker 1It is this is going to get cut anyway, so oh okay.
Speaker 2Okay, the semla, yeah, someone's going to cut the. No, I mean Don't cut the semla, no, no no, I was thinking the silence. If we have silence, it's going to get cut. You're not cutting it, no, it's going to get cut, You're not cutting it.
Speaker 1No, it's going to get cut anyways. Okay, so that's really the.
Speaker 2That's the worst part about Easter the worst part.
Speaker 1So and then we get into like Thursday that's skär torstan. That's cutting Thursday yeah cutting Thursday or like pink, or like.
Speaker 2Pink, pink. Yeah, okay, pink Thursday. Yeah, I've never heard of that.
Speaker 1Okay, because Hvar also means like Pink.
Speaker 2Okay, I don't really know.
Speaker 1Yeah, really doesn't matter, no. And then we get to the Long Friday that's today.
Speaker 2Mm-hmm. Anything special about today? Yes, what are we supposed to do today?
Speaker 1Since this was the day Jesus was walking around with the cross on his back and all that, we're supposed to have a boring day.
Speaker 2Okay. You're not allowed to have fun today, that's historically okay, that's too late. Yeah, what are you supposed to do on thursdays?
Speaker 1I really don't know okay, cut some bread yeah okay, that would be good.
Speaker 2yeah, um, I did have fun today. Okay, so I went against the law.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, I broke the law, not good.
Speaker 2No sorry.
Speaker 1I'm gonna have you deported.
Speaker 2I thought you were gonna say hung, but okay, that's fine.
Speaker 1Yeah, on a cross.
Speaker 2Okay, that's what happens to people who happen to have fun yes, on Long Friday.
Speaker 1Yeah, do you think Jesus had fun carrying that cross?
Speaker 2I wasn't aware that he did this.
Speaker 1You didn't.
Speaker 2No, I know about him being hung on the cross, but not that he had to carry the thing around. Yeah, he did. That's a burden. Well, that I heard of, okay.
Speaker 1That's why the day feels so long, because he was carrying that thing around the whole day.
Speaker 2You know, in English it's a good Friday, yeah.
Speaker 1I don't get that.
Speaker 2No, I don't know.
Speaker 1Why is it so good I?
Speaker 2don't know. Okay, so then what?
