SPEAKER_03 0:05

In a world where everything is unscripted, this is roasty, toasty, roast. I feel like I was kinda good with the food yesterday because I only I only had two hamburgers.

SPEAKER_00 0:21

Alright. Yeah, yeah, that's okay. Were they singles or doubles?

SPEAKER_03 0:25

Singles.

SPEAKER_00 0:26

Okay, then yeah, that's okay. I wouldn't say that's so bad.

SPEAKER_03 0:29

It's good for me.

SPEAKER_00 0:30

It's good for me.

SPEAKER_03 0:31

For being me. It's not good. It's not good for me. It's good for being me.

SPEAKER_00 0:36

Yeah. It's good compared to the average.

SPEAKER_03 0:39

Yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 0:39

There wasn't even five, so could have easily gone for ten, but I stuck with two.

SPEAKER_03 0:45

Yeah. See? Now it sounds way better.

SPEAKER_00 0:50

I mean, they mostly come in eight packs. Yeah. But I'm sure you could clear out a 20 pack. Yeah. Yeah. If it was just the patties, nothing else.

SPEAKER_03 0:59

Then I need to buy another one since they only come in eight packs.

SPEAKER_00 1:04

You know, you are probably hitting rock bottom when you buy a 20-pack of patties and just cook them all and snack on the entire thing.

SPEAKER_03 1:12

Yeah. By yourself.

SPEAKER_00 1:14

By yourself. I feel like once you get to that point, maybe you should be concerned.

SPEAKER_03 1:19

Yeah, true. Next month I'm gonna be good.

SPEAKER_00 1:22

Right. Then we're gonna be halfway through the year and you're still saying, yeah, next month. I'll start next month.

SPEAKER_03 1:28

Yeah. Should we start?

SPEAKER_00 1:30

Maybe we should. Yeah. So let's open this up.

SPEAKER_00 3:12

I didn't see you.

SPEAKER_03 3:13

You did not see me.

SPEAKER_00 3:14

I wasn't invited.

SPEAKER_03 3:15

No.

SPEAKER_00 3:16

Again. I wait for the year when I actually get invited to your birthday parties.

SPEAKER_03 3:23

Well, you all you're always busy, so.

SPEAKER_00 3:26

I was not busy. I was sitting at home all day waiting for you to tell me to come over.

SPEAKER_03 3:32

Oh yeah, sure.

SPEAKER_00 3:33

Well, I mean, yeah, I I didn't really do anything after I taught gymnastics. I did go home and just sit around.

SPEAKER_03 3:41

But well, you should have come over then.

SPEAKER_00 3:44

I wasn't invited. I've never been invited. Well you never want me there.

SPEAKER_03 3:48

You can ask. Sorry.

SPEAKER_00 3:51

Go ahead and hoe.

SPEAKER_03 3:52

Did you call me a hoe?

SPEAKER_00 3:53

Ho Yes.

SPEAKER_03 3:55

Yes, okay. I was wondering.

SPEAKER_00 3:57

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 3:58

But yeah, I thought you were busy all day, so that's why you weren't invited.

SPEAKER_00 4:05

Honestly, I don't remember.

SPEAKER_03 4:06

No, because you're always talking about how busy you are.

SPEAKER_00 4:09

Yeah. So um And then I realize I'm not actually as well.

SPEAKER_03 4:13

That's not really my fault then.

SPEAKER_00 4:15

The thing is that like most of my busyness is like online. Like I'm always doing things online with my emails and stuff. But this week I have had physical busyness. Busyness.

SPEAKER_03 4:28

Busyness.

SPEAKER_00 4:28

Busyness.

SPEAKER_03 4:30

Business.

SPEAKER_00 4:30

Business. Busyness, business. Yeah. Business, busyness. So I wasn't invited. Because you assumed I was busy. Yes. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 4:40

Because you're always telling me how busy you are. And I mean, so if you are busy online, would that be like if I invent uh invent you?

SPEAKER_00 4:51

Invent me? Invent you?

SPEAKER_03 4:55

No, if I invite you, would you like spend most of the time on your phone?

SPEAKER_00 5:02

I would try not to, but if I had a really important, like urgent email that like I've been waiting for, uh I'm I'll probably like quickly write it and send it and then be back.

SPEAKER_03 5:14

Okay. Or you put your phone on the table and be on your watch instead.

SPEAKER_00 5:18

I don't get my emails on my watch.

SPEAKER_03 5:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 5:21

My watch I have set so that it's only like texts and calls that come to my watch and like certain other notifications, but like not like only the important things. My emails do not come to my watch.

SPEAKER_03 5:35

They're not important.

SPEAKER_00 5:36

They're not no, no. Usually my emails can wait, but it's like just this week it feels like. Or recently I've been getting important emails.

SPEAKER_03 5:46

Yeah. Okay. If I knew that you weren't busy, I would have invited you.

SPEAKER_00 5:52

Okay. So I didn't know. You didn't know that you weren't busy, or I I didn't know that if I even attempted or like ask. Yeah. I usually get shot down.

SPEAKER_03 6:04

No. I don't think so.

SPEAKER_00 6:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 6:05

You're always welcome.

SPEAKER_00 6:07

Okay. This time I just assumed.

SPEAKER_03 6:09

Yeah, okay, and I assumed you were busy.

SPEAKER_00 6:11

So we both assumed and now we're both sad. Or at least one of us is sad.

SPEAKER_03 6:18

Yeah, I don't think you're really that sad. So yeah. I got over it. Yeah. It's like whatever. But I'm sad.

SPEAKER_00 6:24

Well, it was just like, yeah, I mean, I'm I'm used to it, so.

The Back Pain Saga

SPEAKER_03 6:29

Okay. Okay, so I I want to talk about my birthday.

SPEAKER_00 6:32

Please. I missed out on everything.

SPEAKER_03 6:35

Okay. Yeah. My birthday started with me working my butt off. We were going to a nearby city to get some like firewood. They're heavy. Really heavy. I broke my back. My lower back hurt so much from doing that. And I was so sweaty. And it was awful. And that was my birthday. Keep in mind. So yeah, we went there twice. We did two loads of that.

SPEAKER_01 7:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 7:06

It wasn't a great start. And I felt my back like the entire day. Well, I still kind of feel it. Yeah, and then um we went home. We had uh this FICA with a lot of people, and I got some presents like chips and candy and stuff, and also some clothes. That's good also. I like my presents. It didn't really happen that much. We were mostly talking that day.

SPEAKER_00 7:34

And then you completely fell apart, like the next day, right?

SPEAKER_03 7:37

The next day, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 7:39

You got older and then you crumbled to pieces.

SPEAKER_03 7:42

It's so funny because I turned half 70, 35. Yes. So Oh, you're old.

SPEAKER_00 7:47

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 7:49

Halfway to 70. And the next day I had a monster that when I took like this last sip, and that's when my upper back just did it crack? It didn't really crack. It was more like instant pain in all the upper back, and I could barely breathe. I'm like, so I had to leave the room, and I'm like, I what what what do I do? I luckily I don't feel that anymore. Yeah. So yeah, that was hurtful. It wasn't nice. And then later on, I went to the bathroom.

SPEAKER_02 8:27

So yeah.

Numb Legs, Near Litter Box Disaster

SPEAKER_03 8:28

I had a bathroom accident. And kind of. Yeah. No, really. I know. I I sat on the toilet and the thing is I started playing um Sudoku on my phone.

SPEAKER_01 8:46

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 8:47

And uh I played this 16 by 16 Sudoku.

SPEAKER_01 8:52

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 8:52

And that takes a long time to solve the entire thing.

SPEAKER_01 8:55

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 8:56

So I sat there for at least half an hour solving that thing. As I'm standing up, I feel like I don't have any legs anymore. They're totally numb.

SPEAKER_00 9:07

Yeah, you're not supposed to sit on the toilet for that long.

SPEAKER_03 9:10

No, I know. So they're numb, and a normal person would probably have felt back, but I'm like, no, I'm gonna go. And then it's really hard to walk when you don't feel your legs.

SPEAKER_00 9:23

Right.

SPEAKER_03 9:24

So I like stumbled forward and almost ended up in the litter box. And I somehow I broke my foot.

unknown 9:37

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 9:38

I don't know. I had to lay there for a few minutes to get my legs back.

SPEAKER_00 9:44

What happened to your foot?

SPEAKER_03 9:45

I don't know. Uh I must have stepped wrong.

SPEAKER_00 9:48

You like sprained your ankle or something.

SPEAKER_03 9:50

Yeah, something like that. I was like, uh oh, this is not good. So I had to lay there for a few minutes, then I could walk, and I was like limping the entire day because we went to my apartment afterwards. But then when I got home, I went to my bed just to rest.

SPEAKER_00 10:09

Yeah, have fun with that.

SPEAKER_03 10:10

Yeah. After that, I was gonna walk, and uh I couldn't stand on the foot, and it it was uh so scary. Yeah, and uh luckily we have this walker thing with wheels on it after my grandma. Yeah, so I had to use that. Yeah, I was like an 80-year-old with uh a walker walking around in the house, yeah. So 35.

SPEAKER_00 10:37

Yeah, scary age starting starting off strong.

SPEAKER_03 10:40

Yeah, yeah. So yeah, I'm still limping from the foot thing, but it's better. It's better. Okay, right now it doesn't really hurt, it's more like uncomfortable feeling, you know. I don't wanna have pressure on that side, you know. You you understand.

SPEAKER_00 10:56

I get it. Yeah, I've had my share of foot, ankle, knee, leg, hip, back pains. Yeah. I go to gymnastics and I always leave with at least one of those.

SPEAKER_03 11:09

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 11:10

Maybe two.

SPEAKER_03 11:12

And my mom thought I looked like a horror character. Uh that, you know, limping.

SPEAKER_01 11:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:19

Like I I don't know if it's like a zombie or yeah, maybe. Or a zombie like my life right now.

SPEAKER_00 11:30

Cool. Sounds like fun.

SPEAKER_03 11:32

Yeah. The rest of the week I've been limping. The funny thing is that on Wednesday I'm jumping ahead a little because I was expecting a call from uh Arbitsfamilien.

SPEAKER_00 11:43

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 11:44

What do you even call that in English?

SPEAKER_00 11:46

The employment agency.

SPEAKER_03 11:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:50

I was expecting a call from them. The thing is that when I got the call, I was on the toilet.

SPEAKER_01 11:56

Yeah.

Toilet Calls And Life Hacks

SPEAKER_03 11:57

And that call was gonna be about half an hour. And I'm like, I can't leave the toilet and just flush that guy listening to me, like getting up from the toilet.

SPEAKER_00 12:10

No, you have the conversation on the toilet.

SPEAKER_03 12:12

I had the conversation on the toilet.

SPEAKER_00 12:14

Why are you constantly on the toilet? How much time per day do you spend playing Sudoku on your phone on the toilet?

SPEAKER_03 12:21

Not that much.

SPEAKER_00 12:23

Okay, well, this is twice in one week. You're stuck on the toilet.

SPEAKER_03 12:27

I'm stuck uh well, that one time was uh not my playing sudoku. Okay. It was taking a phone call.

SPEAKER_00 12:37

Alright.

SPEAKER_03 12:37

So that was just poor timed phone call from them.

SPEAKER_00 12:41

That happens sometimes.

SPEAKER_03 12:43

Yeah. So I had to sit on the toilet for half an hour, and I'm like, this is gonna be scary when I uh hang up because I might fall into the litter box again.

SPEAKER_00 12:55

If that happens to me, someone calls me while I'm on the toilet, because it has happened quite a few times. Either you can do like the super quick flush and then run out and take the call if you have the time for that, I guess.

SPEAKER_03 13:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:10

Or yeah, you just sit there and have the phone call on the toilet, and I have like put the phone on mute if they're like doing something on their side, like typing or whatever.

SPEAKER_03 13:22

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 13:23

Put it on mute and then flush.

SPEAKER_03 13:25

Uh, I never even thought about it.

SPEAKER_00 13:26

And go really quick out and then unmute and pretty that they don't try talking to me while I'm muted.

SPEAKER_03 13:33

Okay, no, that didn't even come to my mind.

SPEAKER_00 13:36

That's a suggestion for next time.

SPEAKER_03 13:38

Okay, good, good life hacks.

SPEAKER_00 13:41

Life hack. There's a mute button. Yeah. It's just knowing when that pocket of time is and it takes speed.

SPEAKER_03 13:48

Yeah, I did survive the phone call, and uh everything went well. One thing that's good with taking a phone call on the toilet is that you're completely alone. You don't have other people walking in or anything like that.

SPEAKER_00 14:03

Well, not maybe maybe in your world. In my world, there's no privacy. There's still people banging on the door.

SPEAKER_03 14:10

Okay. Yeah. Well, where I live right now, we have toilet each, so uh yeah. That's a good thing.

SPEAKER_00 14:18

But what if people are looking for you? Like Matias, can you help me?

SPEAKER_03 14:25

That could be a possibility, I guess. I think they would try to call me first.

unknown 14:30

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 14:31

Uh but uh they also knew that I was expecting a phone call.

SPEAKER_00 14:35

Okay, while you were on the toilet.

SPEAKER_03 14:37

Not not really that, but uh that they didn't know. So maybe they would be like, okay, he's hiding now.

SPEAKER_00 14:45

He's taking his in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_03 14:48

In the toilet. Hiding in the toilet. So yeah, that's what happened in my life this week.

Lauren’s Stress, School, And Gymnastics

SPEAKER_00 14:54

That's a lot that's happened this week. We've spent a lot of time talking about your week. All right, some highlights of my week. I uh I worked, I went to work on Saturday, but I got out at three. So I could have come over after.

SPEAKER_03 15:11

Okay, so you know, that was the thing.

SPEAKER_00 15:14

That was the thing.

SPEAKER_03 15:15

Because I knew that you were working.

SPEAKER_00 15:17

I was, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:19

You told me that.

SPEAKER_00 15:20

Yeah, that was it. Sorry, but uh sorry, you were right. Yeah. This last week, I managed to save all of my uh physical meetings for Wednesday. Okay, and I had a debate speech that I had to present in my Swedish class on Wednesday, and I wasn't very happy with it, with how it went. Oh. I wasn't happy with anything, and I had to leave the class early, or I thought I was right on time. I didn't know that we were gonna spend longer time in the classroom than usual, but my daughter had a parent-teacher meeting that I had to rush to.

SPEAKER_02 16:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:06

And so we went and did that, and then I went home and figured I would go through my assignments for this upcoming week, and I got so overwhelmed that I broke down. We're supposed to do an analysis on a speech. We're working on speeches right now, I guess. The analysis is supposed to be done on a specific speech, and we were provided a YouTube link to this speech, and it was in German. And so I broke down even more because I don't know German. So I don't know how I'm supposed to do an analysis on the speech that I can't understand.

SPEAKER_03 16:50

No, and this is Swedish class.

SPEAKER_00 16:52

Swedish class, why is it in German? Uh so I got really sad and overwhelmed and really stressed. But I realized the next day that there was a file sent to me with the speech in Swedish, so I could read it and understand it. Yeah. And my teacher talked me through everything the next day as well. But I also had a really big gymnastics meeting on Wednesday, and I got to talk to all the people about all the things that I'm trying to do, everything that I'm working on right now, because it's it's big, big things. I mentioned before, big things are happening, and I'm doing big things, and I'm really excited about all of it. And uh you're stressing out. I'm stressing out because it's a lot. It's a lot on both ends, and I'm still taking care of you know a family and everything else around me and trying to be good and uh survive life and stuff, and that's what I've done this week.

SPEAKER_01 18:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 18:01

And I got sad last night because I had to cancel spinning again.

SPEAKER_01 18:05

Oh.

Spinning Class Cancellations And Doubt

SPEAKER_00 18:06

Because once again, the same people signed up and then the same people dropped out right when they saw that it was me. Oh, okay. So yeah. A little sad, but you think it's because of you? I'm pretty sure it's because of me.

SPEAKER_03 18:23

Okay. Because of the music or maybe.

SPEAKER_00 18:26

I don't know. I don't know. But I keep getting told, oh, there's so many other reasons that it could be. Like people could be sick, but it's like the third or fourth week in a row that they've done this to me. It's like, what what do you mean? Is that I can't I can't imagine that people would be so sick all these weeks in a row and cancel on me. Or I don't know, have something else, or I don't even know. Even one of the other like instructors in the group canceled on me. Like, even they couldn't support me. Like, come on. Uh yeah, that's uh that's how it's going.

SPEAKER_03 19:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 19:07

Today's Friday.

SPEAKER_03 19:08

It is.

SPEAKER_00 19:09

SPEAKER_00 19:34

I went out this morning to walk the dog. I was gonna say fake dog. He's a real dog. The dog that I'm watching. I took him out for a walk this morning, and it was like all the snow was melting, and it was really wet outside, and it was warm, and the birds were dripping.

SPEAKER_03 19:55

Okay. And so it felt like spring. Did you say the birds were dripping?

SPEAKER_00 19:59

The birds were also dripping. They were melting. The snow and the birds were all melting, and everything around me was melting, and it was warm. But we had a movie day.

We watched blisters. Oh no. I'm gonna say it again, aren't I? We watched blended blended first.

SPEAKER_03 20:50

Yes, we did.

SPEAKER_00 20:51

Would you like to tell me about this movie?

SPEAKER_03 20:54

I can tell you about this movie. This is a movie starring Adam Sander and Drew Barrymore once again.

SPEAKER_00 21:00

They are in all the movies together.

SPEAKER_03 21:03

Yeah. Okay. This is not a coincidence that all those three movies were in a row.

SPEAKER_00 21:08

Oh.

SPEAKER_03 21:09

Oh. They have uh kids of their own.

SPEAKER_00 21:14

Right. They all they have their own kids separately from other marriages.

SPEAKER_03 21:19

Yeah, he has three daughters, she has two sons.

SPEAKER_00 21:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:23

It starts with them having a blind date that doesn't go too well. Later in the movie, they go on a vacation separately, but they end up at the same place, and there a spark starts between them and the families.

SPEAKER_02 21:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:39

And uh they start, you know, l they like uh the other person's kids, and you know, they they help each other with the kids. And uh yeah, I I think that's what the movie is about, right?

SPEAKER_00 21:53

Yeah, blended is the two families blending together.

Blended: Family Comedy Reactions

SPEAKER_03 21:56

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. What did you think about this movie?

SPEAKER_00 21:59

Terry Cruz.

SPEAKER_03 22:00

Terry Cruz is in this movie.

SPEAKER_00 22:02

She uh was telling us all about how the families were getting blended.

SPEAKER_03 22:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:06

The whole time.

SPEAKER_03 22:07

And I like the cameo from the guy Tom.

SPEAKER_00 22:10

Oh yeah. I'm Tom. Hi. For a second. Yeah. And Kevin Nealan was in the movie. And who was his woman? Do you know her name?

SPEAKER_03 22:23

I don't know her name.

SPEAKER_00 22:24

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 22:24

What did you think about this movie?

SPEAKER_00 22:26

I like the movie. I felt like I could relate to a lot of the family problems. Uh maybe more than you.

SPEAKER_03 22:34

Yeah, definitely.

SPEAKER_00 22:35

Um except for the kids being all excited for their vacation.

SPEAKER_03 22:40

Excited and thankful.

SPEAKER_00 22:41

And thankful. Yeah. Thanks, Mom. I'm so happy that we're here. And this is amazing. Because I believe fairly recently we went on a really big uh vacation adventure.

SPEAKER_02 22:55

We did.

SPEAKER_00 22:56

And not one of my kids gave me that response. So a little disappointing, but um, and possibly uh I find that part of the movie unrealistic.

SPEAKER_03 23:09

Yeah, I'd say so.

SPEAKER_00 23:10

Yeah. So uh but I I like the movie. It was funny.

SPEAKER_03 23:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 23:15

And uh sad again, but funny.

SPEAKER_03 23:19

If you ask me, this is the weakest one of the three movies they made together so far, but I mean I I still enjoyed it. I still like it.

SPEAKER_01 23:28

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 23:28

But I just prefer the other two.

SPEAKER_01 23:30

That's all.

SPEAKER_03 23:31

Yeah, that's all. Uh I mean it's hard to top those two.

SPEAKER_00 23:35

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 23:35

The first one is from uh The Wedding Zinger is from '98. The second one, Fifty First Dates, is from 2004. This one is from 2014. So it would be cool if they could make a movie every decade with them.

SPEAKER_00 23:51

That would be cool.

SPEAKER_03 23:52

Yeah. So they have three years to make another movie together.

SPEAKER_00 23:57

Or something. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 23:58

So do that. Hey, Drew and Adam, get on that thing. Make another movie. Yeah. I really do like them together. They have a good chemistry.

SPEAKER_00 24:09

Yeah. They are good. I do like them too. Would you ever consider a trip to Africa?

SPEAKER_03 24:16

I don't know. I don't think I would be as excited with that idea.

SPEAKER_00 24:20

Because it's warm?

SPEAKER_03 24:22

Yeah. Mostly, yes.

SPEAKER_00 24:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:25

Would you?

SPEAKER_00 24:26

I think so.

SPEAKER_03 24:27

Hmm. Thinking about if I would pick another continent to go to, I would rather go to Asia.

SPEAKER_00 24:34

Yeah, that could be fun.

SPEAKER_03 24:36

Because that would be cool.

SPEAKER_00 24:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:38

I would like to go to Hong Kong.

SPEAKER_00 24:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:40

Sorry. Why not?

Travel Dreams: Africa Or Asia

SPEAKER_00 24:42

I mean, well, I don't know. The thing is that the thing I that concerns me the most about going to uh like Hong Kong or anywhere in Asia is like I can't read Chinese.

SPEAKER_03 24:56

No, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 24:58

I can't read the signs unless they're translated to English. And I don't know, I haven't really researched. I haven't gone on Google Maps and gone to Hong Kong.

SPEAKER_03 25:08

No, here's some uh but what do you say? Um for do more pre-judgment is that I think the air isn't that good over there. Right. Whenever you see a clip or and then it's some it looks like there's smog all over the place.

SPEAKER_01 25:25

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 25:27

Yeah, that's just my you know picture of it. Yeah. That it's gonna be hard to breathe over there. Yeah, having asthma is not great. Not the best.

SPEAKER_00 25:37

No, I guess not.

SPEAKER_03 25:38

And like you said, Chinese. It's difficult to read.

SPEAKER_00 25:41

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 25:42

The language.

SPEAKER_00 25:43

Right.

SPEAKER_03 25:44

I like the people, I think. I don't know. I I haven't met that many.

SPEAKER_00 25:48

I haven't met the all the Chinese people.

SPEAKER_03 25:50

No. I met a cat from Hong Kong.

SPEAKER_00 25:52

Yeah. I've met a guy from China and uh girl. They helped teach me how to do my job.

SPEAKER_03 26:00

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 26:01

It was cool. And it was like always fun when they had a minute to themselves and like talk Chinese to each other. Yeah. And I just like stand there and listen. Like that's so cool.

SPEAKER_03 26:12

Yeah, you don't know what they're saying.

SPEAKER_00 26:14

No, but it sounds cool.

SPEAKER_03 26:16

Yeah, probably you know, like uh insulting you or something.

SPEAKER_00 26:20

Maybe. Like these guys are idiots.

SPEAKER_03 26:23

Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. No, but um, I would like to go to places that I've seen in movies.

SPEAKER_00 26:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:30

That's what I'm interested in.

SPEAKER_00 26:32

We did that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:34

With it.

SPEAKER_00 26:34

And I think it would be kind of fun to go to Africa after watching this movie.

SPEAKER_03 26:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 26:40

I want to see the elephants.

SPEAKER_03 26:41

Yeah. And I mean, they're in Africa in Who Am I?

SPEAKER_00 26:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:45

At the beginning, you know.

SPEAKER_00 26:46

Are there elephants?

SPEAKER_03 26:47

Yeah. And giraffes.

SPEAKER_00 26:49

I want to see elephants.

SPEAKER_03 26:51

Yeah. They're also a snake.

SPEAKER_00 26:52

Yeah. Anything else about the movie?

SPEAKER_03 26:56

No. I don't think so.

SPEAKER_00 26:57

Okay. Then I think I'm gonna tell you about detox.

SPEAKER_03 27:00

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:01

I'm gonna try. This movie has Stallone and some other people.

SPEAKER_02 27:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:06

And uh there's a bad guy who is attacking everyone who Stallone likes.

SPEAKER_02 27:13

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 27:14

And so Stallone and some other police people, because uh Stallone works as a police, I guess. And so there's like a group of other police people who decide to live in a very cold place.

SPEAKER_03 27:30

Yeah, it's like a detox facility or what Okay. Yeah, they're there for like rehab. Yeah. After like drinking and drugs.

SPEAKER_00 27:40

He started drinking after Oh yeah, because the bad guy killed his girlfriend. And then he started drinking a lot. And I guess he went to this detox place and it was in a very cold area. Uh there's lots of snow and ice. Then I guess everyone who was living there gets killed off one by one.

SPEAKER_01 28:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:03

And uh Stallone has to find out who the bad guy is.

SPEAKER_03 28:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:07

And then he beats him up. Yeah. That's all.

SPEAKER_03 28:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:11

Do you like this movie?

SPEAKER_03 28:12

Yes, I do.

SPEAKER_00 28:14

Why?

SPEAKER_03 28:14

Why? It's a violent movie, and I like violent movies.

SPEAKER_00 28:19

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 28:19

No, I do like the who done it kind of movies that you don't really know who who the killer is, like a mystery movie, you know.

SPEAKER_00 28:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 28:28

Yeah. So I I don't mind this movie. It m it's not like my favorite movie of his, but I still kind of like it.

SPEAKER_00 28:36

Go ahead.

SPEAKER_03 28:36

Yeah. So my question is, why do you hate this movie?

SPEAKER_00 28:39

Uh, it's kind of like a horror movie. It has lots of horror vibes and scenes that are scary, and the guy drills through people's eyeballs.

SPEAKER_01 28:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:51

I don't like it. I don't like eyeball things. Okay. Eyes are pretty, but they should not be destroyed.

SPEAKER_02 28:58

No.

SPEAKER_00 28:59

And it is very violent. And that's why I'm I'm gonna be brave and say I don't think I like the movie. Okay. And I'm gonna add a sorry here.

SPEAKER_03 29:10

Sorry. Go ahead. From me.

SPEAKER_00 29:12

Yes. I'm not going to apologize for disliking the movie. No. I expect that my opinion is respected.

SPEAKER_02 29:21

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 29:22

And we can leave the room still being okay with each other.

SPEAKER_03 29:27

But I'm not gonna say I'm sorry for showing you this movie either.

SPEAKER_00 29:31

No, you don't have to.

SPEAKER_03 29:32

No, like I did Platoon.

SPEAKER_00 29:35

That was a different story. That one was extreme. This one I could watch through it and like be completely okay with it. I watched the movie, I gave it a chance, and I came to the conclusion that I didn't really like it.

SPEAKER_03 29:51

Okay. That's okay. That's fine.

SPEAKER_00 29:53

Yes, thank you. Okay. Look how we've grown.

SPEAKER_03 29:59

Look at my face.

Violence, Eyeballs, And Casting Chat

SPEAKER_00 30:01

Yes, it's very nice, but keep it over there. Hands to yourself. Okay. Do you have anything super fun to say about this movie that's like such a downer?

SPEAKER_03 30:13

Um, I mean, uh most of the people, uh the actors in this movie have been like bad guys in other movies. So that I think that's kind of the casting choice. Took people that are so uh typecasted as bad guys in this movie, so you you wouldn't know who the bad guy is.

SPEAKER_00 30:33

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 30:34

I like that.

SPEAKER_00 30:35

Now you need to list off all the people they missed.

SPEAKER_03 30:38

All the people they missed.

SPEAKER_00 30:40

Yeah, all the other people who are usually bad guys.

SPEAKER_03 30:43

Okay. Gary Bucey.

SPEAKER_00 30:45

Oh, yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 30:46

That's like the top of my list. He is always bad guy.

SPEAKER_00 30:50

I guess so. I don't remember his name, but the guy who was in Breakfast Club and Die Hard and that all those.

SPEAKER_03 31:00

Paul Gleason?

SPEAKER_00 31:01

Yeah. Him.

SPEAKER_03 31:03

Richard Norton.

SPEAKER_00 31:04

The other Paul who was no, maybe his name wasn't Paul.

SPEAKER_03 31:09

But uh the other Paul that anyone named Paul?

SPEAKER_00 31:15

Yeah. I'm gonna say. No. Um the the one from Beach Beach Boys, right? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 31:22

Oh, yeah. Paul Giamati.

SPEAKER_00 31:25

He was a Paul. Yeah, he should have been in this movie.

SPEAKER_03 31:28

Yeah. Alan Rickman.

SPEAKER_00 31:30

Oh, yeah, he's a bad guy. It's more difficult for me.

SPEAKER_03 31:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 31:35

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 31:36

No.

SPEAKER_00 31:36

No. But there's a lot of that was a list of other people who could have been in this movie.

SPEAKER_03 31:43

Yeah. But I still think they had a good list of bad guy people in this. So Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 31:50

It was still good.

SPEAKER_03 31:51

Yeah. Okay. In that that way.

SPEAKER_00 31:53

Yeah. Anything else?

SPEAKER_03 31:54

No.

SPEAKER_00 31:55

Alright. Good.

SPEAKER_03 31:56

Do you want to take a break or something?

Quick Break: Bunny Recovery Update

SPEAKER_00 31:58

Oh my goodness. I feel like I could use a break.

SPEAKER_03 32:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 32:01

SPEAKER_03 32:25

I did have a good break.

SPEAKER_00 32:26

Good.

SPEAKER_03 32:27

Did you?

SPEAKER_00 32:28

I did.

SPEAKER_03 32:28

You went to the toilet.

SPEAKER_00 32:30

I did. And then I pet a bunny on my way back.

SPEAKER_03 32:33

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 32:33

She got fixed on Monday.

SPEAKER_02 32:36

Oh, for good.

SPEAKER_00 32:37

So she is getting her energy back now.

SPEAKER_03 32:40

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 32:41

And really wants to go back and play with the other bunny. Uh, but she's not allowed to yet.

SPEAKER_03 32:47

No. No, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 32:49

But soon enough.

SPEAKER_03 32:50

She's got stitches there and she's got stitches.

SPEAKER_00 32:54

She's not really allowed to hop that much.

SPEAKER_03 32:56

No.

SPEAKER_00 32:57

So like her little area is perfect for recovering bunnies.

SPEAKER_03 33:01

Yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_00 33:02

We didn't have that when any of the other bunnies got fixed.

SPEAKER_03 33:06

No.

SPEAKER_00 33:06

So yeah.

SPEAKER_03 33:07

Yeah, she does she doesn't like it.

SPEAKER_00 33:09

No, she's not happy. She's not oh, she's so grumpy right now. She hates taking her medication. She cringes from just the syringe.

SPEAKER_03 33:18

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 33:19

You know, it's not like there's no needle, but she's like awkward. She's like, no, blah. Like she she does that like uh like flinching just from the syringe.

SPEAKER_03 33:31

Yeah, get it.

SPEAKER_00 33:32

But I tricked her this morning into taking her medication. Well, last night I like put it on her paw so she could lick it off. But then I realized that she could flick it off, flick it off. Yeah, not lick it. Yeah, she could flick it off instead. Flick it off, lick it off and then like not get the entire dosage. So today I mixed it with some mashed banana.

SPEAKER_01 33:55

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 33:56

And that was why I had the rest of the banana when we started watching movies. Oh, because you can't give them that much. So I gave her a little bit and I gave uh the other bunny a little bit, and then I saved the rest for me.

SPEAKER_03 34:10

Yeah. Alright. All right.

SPEAKER_00 34:12

Should we transition to this next part?

History Lesson Setup: No AI

SPEAKER_03 34:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:18

Next half of the episode. Today we are recording 170.

SPEAKER_03 34:25

Oh, yes.

SPEAKER_00 34:25

And I guess every tenth episode we do a history lesson.

SPEAKER_03 34:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:31

I am going to tell you a history lesson. This is the first time in a long time we are not using AI. We are going to test my imagination.

SPEAKER_02 34:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:42

My fantasy. Uh AI is ruining my life. Oh my god, I have a zero fantasy anymore.

SPEAKER_03 34:50

No, it's it's kind of funny that you do the improv. Yeah. That I I like to do improv. And you say you're bad at it.

SPEAKER_00 35:00

I am.

SPEAKER_03 35:01

And uh then it ends up with you doing the improv instead of me.

SPEAKER_00 35:06

Well, you've gotten to do it a couple times.

SPEAKER_03 35:09

Yeah. The future.

SPEAKER_00 35:10

The future.

SPEAKER_03 35:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 35:12

You can do a future episode next time.

SPEAKER_03 35:15

Yeah. Maybe.

SPEAKER_00 35:16

Maybe. Or maybe we should do these things more often, like every fifth.

SPEAKER_03 35:20

Yeah, maybe. We'll see. We'll see.

SPEAKER_00 35:22

We'll see. So today it's my turn.

SPEAKER_03 35:25

SPEAKER_00 35:25

To tell you a history lesson.

SPEAKER_03 35:27

SPEAKER_03 35:31

Uh okay, so you're an American, you know. Wow. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 35:34

Yes, I am.

SPEAKER_03 35:35

But uh I have noticed something that uh Americans do celebrate, but you don't really mention that much.

SPEAKER_00 35:43

I don't care.

SPEAKER_03 35:44

No.

SPEAKER_00 35:45

So I don't even need to know.

SPEAKER_03 35:47

I would like to know more about St. Patrick's Day.

SPEAKER_00 36:15

Okay. So a long, long time ago, uh in a galaxy far away. Don't keep going. No.

SPEAKER_02 36:26

No.

SPEAKER_00 36:26

I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm gonna get over this. Anyway. Okay. So many centuries ago, try rewording this. There was a colony, a village of people living together, like people do.

SPEAKER_03 36:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:44

Okay. And one of them had lots of gold. Okay. Very rich. Okay. Very rich guy. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 36:53

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_00 36:54

And he liked to keep it all to himself. And because he wanted to keep it to himself, he had to go hide it. Okay. All his gold somewhere. And there was uh a magical bird fairy guy with wings.

SPEAKER_03 37:14

Right now I'm seeing like a gay guy flying.

SPEAKER_00 37:19

Yes. Right. With with eagle wings.

SPEAKER_03 37:22

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 37:24

And he flew to this village because he he was just going for his daily flight.

SPEAKER_03 37:32

This is my daily flight. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 37:34

Some people go for a jog. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 37:36

Or walk.

SPEAKER_00 37:37

This guy has wings. If you could fly, you'd do it too.

SPEAKER_03 37:40

Of course. I would rather fly.

SPEAKER_00 37:42

You need to exercise those wings.

SPEAKER_03 37:44

Yeah, exactly. You wouldn't fly if you had wings.

SPEAKER_00 37:47

Not that far up. No. I have like a few centimeters above the ground. I would hover. Yeah. Um but yeah, this guy is fearless. Because he has flown his whole life. And um it was the rock. He he looked very similar.

SPEAKER_03 38:05

A flying rock.

SPEAKER_00 38:06

A flying rock.

SPEAKER_03 38:07

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 38:08

He's like, why are you all upset? And they're like, We have no money, and this one guy is hoarding all the money. Oh. All the gold. And when we, you know, rob his house, there's nothing there.

SPEAKER_01 38:38

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 38:39

They're they're all burgling his house. Trying to find his money.

SPEAKER_03 38:47

What are you doing? I'm burgling.

SPEAKER_00 38:49

Burgling? You know.

SPEAKER_03 38:51

I'm burgling the fairy.

SPEAKER_00 38:54

SPEAKER_03 38:57

The bad guy. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 38:59

Okay. And the rock is the is it the old MacGyver or the new one?

SPEAKER_00 39:40

Probably the old one, because it's a long time ago.

SPEAKER_03 39:43

Good, because it's uh that's the good MacGyver.

SPEAKER_00 39:46

Yeah. Um.

SPEAKER_03 39:47

But he's bad now.

SPEAKER_00 39:48

He's bad. Yeah. Uh he's just playing the part of a bad guy.

SPEAKER_03 39:52

Yeah. I kind of want to see this.

SPEAKER_00 39:55

I would love to uh animate history lessons. How cool. Anyway, what was I saying? We were talking about the Oh MacGyver is playing the Scrooge who uh uh is hiding his wealth wealthiness well his gold and the people are trying to burgle his house but can't find it.

SPEAKER_03 40:20

No, yeah. Okay. So is the this uh flying rock also part of the burgling?

SPEAKER_00 40:26

No, he's just uh he's the detective.

SPEAKER_03 40:29

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 40:29

He's like, okay, well let me help you guys so that everything is fair, okay. The fair E. Fair. Fairy. The fairness fairy. Yeah. He's the fairness fairy.

SPEAKER_02 40:41

Uh.

SPEAKER_00 40:42

And uh that's just a detail that I forgot to mention because he uh finds Scrooge, MacGyver Scrooge, and is like, what's going on, man? Why aren't you uh sharing your gold? He forgot his line. Yeah. Uh gold. Uh gold. Uh because everyone else is needs some of this gold so that they can buy not money, but food and stuff.

SPEAKER_03 41:13

It sounds kind of high to me.

unknown 41:15

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 41:16

He's a fairy, magical, fairy bird thing. So he was high, but now he's on the ground.

unknown 41:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:26

So the uh Scrooge MacGyver, MacGyver Scrooge was his name.

SPEAKER_03 41:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:32

Um, he starts fighting with the rock.

SPEAKER_03 41:34

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 41:35

And he's like, mind your own business, I do what I want.

SPEAKER_03 41:38

And so it's a verbal fight.

SPEAKER_00 41:40

Yes. Yes. Because fairy rock doesn't fight.

SPEAKER_03 41:44

No. Uh he doesn't do that anymore. He's not a rest fight. No, that's true. And uh I'm I'm thinking, is he smaller or is he big?

SPEAKER_00 41:53

He's uh who?

SPEAKER_03 41:54

Fairy rock.

SPEAKER_00 41:55

Oh, he's he's normal fairy rock size.

SPEAKER_03 41:58

Okay.

unknown 41:59

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 42:00

What does that mean?

unknown 42:03

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 42:03

I'm assuming he's the rest of them.

SPEAKER_00 42:05

I'm assuming he's like seven feet tall.

SPEAKER_03 42:08

Oh yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 42:08

Because he's really tall, I think.

SPEAKER_03 42:11

Yeah, I think so.

SPEAKER_00 42:12

And uh seven feet wide because of muscles.

SPEAKER_03 42:16

Yeah, because usually fairies are small.

SPEAKER_00 42:19

Yeah, but he's not a normal fairy. He's like an eagle.

SPEAKER_03 42:22

Oh yeah, that's true.

Why Green And School Pinches

SPEAKER_00 42:23

Eagle fairy bird magic guy. And fair fairy. He's a fairness fairy.

SPEAKER_03 42:31

Fairness fairy, ego, rock.

SPEAKER_00 42:34

He has a lot of labels. Okay. You gotta keep up with me. Yes. Um, okay, so he gets in a verbal fight because he doesn't wrestle anymore. No, exactly. That was even longer ago. Like forever ago. Yeah. He did that. And so the rock starts getting a little annoyed. Like, this is ridiculous. Why are you like this? So he uses his magical powers and shrinks MacGyver Scrooge.

SPEAKER_03 43:03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 43:04

So he's like two feet tall now.

SPEAKER_03 43:07

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 43:08

And he put a curse on him. So every time he hides his gold, everyone will be able to find it because there's a rainbow coming out of it. Uh-huh. So you follow the rainbow to get to the gold.

SPEAKER_03 43:22

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 43:23

So everything is fair now because people know not to burgle his house. They follow the rainbow.

SPEAKER_03 43:30

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 43:31

And also there's four leaf clovers.

SPEAKER_03 43:34

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 43:35

That will lead a path to the gold if there's no rainbow, I guess.

SPEAKER_03 43:41

Oh, okay. Okay, it makes sense. Yeah. It's not always a rainbow. That's like just after the rain.

SPEAKER_00 43:48

Exactly. So, like, there's the rainbow is activated for a certain amount of time and then it fades.

SPEAKER_03 43:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 43:55

And then there will be four leaflover paths. Because they're

SPEAKER_03 44:00

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 44:01

You you're lucky if you find the path because they're really hard to find.

SPEAKER_03 44:09

Yeah, okay, so mm, it's hard to find the path that's leading to something harder to find.

SPEAKER_00 44:17

Yes.

SPEAKER_03 44:18

Even harder to find. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 44:19

Yeah. Wow. And then the people who find finally find the gold get really happy and excited, and then they spend all the gold on beer.

SPEAKER_02 44:31

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 44:31

And get really drunk. And then I don't know what happened, but the entire village turned into alcoholics and it pretty much burned itself to the ground.

SPEAKER_03 44:43

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 44:44

So you won't find it anymore. But the rock eagle bird magic fairy fairness guy flew away after that. He was like, My job is done here. Yeah. And then he went home.

SPEAKER_03 44:56

Okay. So he he just left it like that.

Wind Down: What’s Ruining Our Lives

SPEAKER_00 45:00

Well, he didn't really check up on them after. No. Because he like was he was like, my job is done here. I did my good deed of the day and he went home. Okay, so people never saw the the aftermath.

SPEAKER_03 45:12

Okay, so people are still searching for the gold, or what is that what happens like every year, or why are people celebrating this?

SPEAKER_00 45:22

Because it's more of a celebration of justice.

SPEAKER_03 45:25

And drinking.

SPEAKER_00 45:26

And drinking.

SPEAKER_03 45:27

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 45:28

To celebrate the good things that the rock did. But I mean, people are more focused on the the short leprechaun guy because he kind of represents the the drinking parts.

SPEAKER_03 45:40

But he's the bad guy.

SPEAKER_00 45:42

Yeah. Well, a lot of the times there have been incidences when the bad guys are the ones who are being celebrated in history when they're really bad guys.

SPEAKER_03 45:54

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 45:54

I mean, I don't know if you remember the first history lesson when we talked about the the pilgrims.

SPEAKER_03 46:01

Oh, yeah, that's nice.

SPEAKER_00 46:02

Who ended up being really bad guys, but we're not taught about that in school.

SPEAKER_03 46:07

No.

SPEAKER_00 46:07

No. We're just we're just taught that, oh, everyone got along and we all ate all this food and it was a good time. We all partied. No one told us that everyone was killing the Indians. No. Uh Amin Amindians.

SPEAKER_03 46:21

Am Indians, yes.

SPEAKER_00 46:22

Yeah. Get your I know, I know. My vocabulary is all messed up.

SPEAKER_03 46:26

Yeah. Um, okay. But so why where yeah. Just why? About this um uh St. Patrick's Day. Uh who's Patrick in Saint Patrick, by the way? Is he the rock or is it?

SPEAKER_00 46:42

It was Scrooge MacGyver.

SPEAKER_03 46:43

Scrooge. Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_00 46:45

Yeah. His name was Patrick.

SPEAKER_03 46:47

Okay. That was his first name.

SPEAKER_00 46:53

Patrick's actually at at first it was called the Saint and the Patrick. Oh. And the Patrick. Patrick and the Saint. Okay. And the Saint. But um Wait, what? Patrick and the Saint. The Rock is the Saint, and Patrick is the the bad guy.

SPEAKER_02 47:12

Yeah. And Screw Scookyver.

Closing, Next Week, And Live Mad Libs CTA

SPEAKER_00 47:14

Yeah. And you know how time goes, and there's lots of, you know, you gotta you gotta shorten everything, acronyms, and like flip-flopping everything, and everyone gets confused with time. So they ended up just calling it Saint Patrick.

SPEAKER_03 47:29

Yeah. Otherwise, when trying to write it, it doesn't fit.

SPEAKER_00 47:32

It takes like an entire page just to write Saint and the Patrick Day. Oh my god. Patrick and the Saint Day. And this all happened on March 17th.

SPEAKER_03 47:48

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:48

That's a nice day, isn't it?

SPEAKER_03 47:50

Mm-hmm. Is that it? That's it. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:53

Any more questions?

SPEAKER_03 47:54

Yes. Why the green? What's the green about?

SPEAKER_00 47:58

The green was the clothes that Patrick got stuck in for the rest of his life as a leprechaun.

SPEAKER_03 48:06

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 48:07

Also the clovers.

SPEAKER_03 48:09

Okay, yeah, that makes sense. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 48:12

He wasn't allowed to change clothes. Uh. He was cursed. Yeah. It was a terrible curse.

SPEAKER_03 48:16

I bet n nothing else fit him, anyways.

SPEAKER_00 48:20

No, exactly. And part of the curse was that he was stuck with this terribly thick Irish accent.

SPEAKER_03 48:26

Ah.

SPEAKER_00 48:27

Because this all took place in Ireland.

SPEAKER_03 48:29

Yeah, oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 48:30

Yeah. Like right on the border between Ireland and Scotland, where like there's there's no understanding anything.

SPEAKER_03 48:37

Ah, there.

SPEAKER_00 48:38

Wherever that is, that's where it happened.

SPEAKER_03 48:40

Oh yeah, there.

SPEAKER_00 48:41

Right there. Yeah, if you look on the map, it's right there.

SPEAKER_03 48:45

Oh, that's the map outside that we saw outside here.

SPEAKER_00 48:49

Yeah, it was right there. That's where it happened.

SPEAKER_03 48:51

Oh, that's the treasure.

SPEAKER_00 48:53

Oh, yeah. The treasure map.

SPEAKER_03 48:55

Mmm. Now I get it. So the 17th, you're going to find the treasure.

SPEAKER_00 49:02

Right.

SPEAKER_03 49:03

Okay. So yeah, uh, the thing is, uh, do you celebrate this?

SPEAKER_00 49:08

Well, I'm not really sure exactly how you're supposed to celebrate, other than having an excuse to uh get drunk.

SPEAKER_03 49:15

Yeah, and wear green, I guess.

SPEAKER_00 49:17

That's all I really try to do is try to wear something green because I heard that it was supposed to be good luck. And if you don't, and this was a big deal in school, okay? If you didn't wear it green on St. Patrick's Day, then someone's gonna end up pinching you.

SPEAKER_02 49:31

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 49:32

And someone always pinched me because I always forgot that it was St. Patrick's Day.

SPEAKER_01 49:36

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 49:36

And then like I had to really double check all of my clothes. Like, no, I'm wearing green underwear.

SPEAKER_03 49:43

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 49:43

My socks are green.

SPEAKER_03 49:44

You never showed your underwear.

SPEAKER_00 49:46

No, I wasn't that brave at the time. I will today. Oh, if I'm wearing green underwear, I'll be like, look.

SPEAKER_03 49:55

Have a look see.

SPEAKER_00 49:56

Yeah, yeah. Well, and now I'm always wearing green because I have green on my tattoo. Yeah, that's true. Bam.

SPEAKER_03 50:03

I am a fixed that.

SPEAKER_00 50:04

I am secured for life. No one's pinching me now. That's pretty much what you do. And lucky charms are good.

SPEAKER_03 50:14

So uh what's so random.

SPEAKER_00 50:17

I like lucky charms.

SPEAKER_03 50:18

Yeah, that's uh how how come uh it it uh became a cereal?

SPEAKER_00 50:24

Because I I don't know, someone was trying to make money off of the money.

SPEAKER_03 50:28

Yeah, okay, makes sense. But uh you're not you're allowed to eat that year round, right?

SPEAKER_00 50:35

Not just yeah, or you're you're uh the they want you to eat it year round. It's not good for you. No, it's not I I wouldn't recommend it.

SPEAKER_03 50:44

Yeah, okay. Really not good for it. Could it be like a tr you think uh do you don't have like a tradition to eat that uh the 17th month?

SPEAKER_00 50:54

No, but it should be.

SPEAKER_03 50:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 50:56

I'm not against it. No, but I don't want the whole box. I just want I want small boxes so that I don't go crazy because I will.

unknown 51:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 51:05

It's so good. I mean, if the whole family maybe you don't have to eat so much.

SPEAKER_00 51:11

Maybe.

SPEAKER_03 51:12

Yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 51:12

I don't know. Are you part of the family?

SPEAKER_03 51:15

Sometimes you're my brother, apparently.

SPEAKER_03 51:20

Yeah. You you never know.
