Because people die. Welcome to Broad Ideas and another special Q&A episode, brought back to you by popular demand. People like it. They really like it. They like it. What's the first question? How are you?

Just get into a question. First question. How am I? How are you? How's everyone doing? I have a question. Very important question. I'm chaotic.

This happened to me yesterday, and I'd like your guys' opinion on this. What? Great. So you see someone that you don't know, really, you know, at all. And they say, how are you? And you say, I'm good. How are you? Right?

And they say, but are you really good? Like, is that the real answer? Like, how are you ready? Mm-hmm. And then you go, well, okay, actually, that's it, that's it. Right? And then they go, okay, I knew it, or whatever. That's on that.

So it's someone that you don't really know, but then they really want you to answer genuinely? Do you think looking back that the way you answered sounded hesitant enough that they wanted to like press you on it? Or do you think they were just like kind of trying to? Or do you think they're just like one of those people that like get into it? I definitely was not signaling that anything was like. I was like I'm good. How are you? But is this like a parent, like a school parent type person or like you got to give me a little more?

No, it's like acting. Acting world. Oh, that makes so much more sense. That's all you had to say. Yeah. Yeah. Hello. Okay, so rhetorical, we don't even need to get into it.

You answered it. I'm curious, though, like, do you think that when you're asking someone how they are, do you actually really want to know? It depends on the person. A lot of the times it's a formality for sure. I agree with Rachel. There's some people that I'm asking, and I hope the answer is always just good, and then I can move on. but I think yeah it really does unfortunately I feel like it really does depend on the context and the people and stuff because there are people that I would I really want to know the answer and I sometimes I hope the answer is more than just good so we can like have a conversation about how they're doing and stuff but if it's like I'm walking out the door or something and you're like not great I'm like uh okay well like Let's have this conversation.

But I like when people are honest. But in your situation, sorry, I'm just thinking, I'm rambling. Yeah. It's weird. It's weird to press someone when they're like, but are you really good? Then I almost want to double down and be like, yeah, I'm fine. Like now I think it would have the inverse effect on me where I'd be like, I don't, now I don't want to tell you anything. Well, I told him too much.

I was like, oh, you really want to know? Yeah. Here you go. And then I walked away. I was like, now you can hold that. Yeah. Here's why I asked the question. Okay.

One, I think that if someone wanted you to know what was going on, they'd say it. Yes. Right. By the way, this person did not offend me in the slightest. Right. We, nothing about it was offensive or pushy or any of that. But it did make me think about it and go, how honest are we typically? And like, is that question actually meant to provoke honesty or is it just a pleasant tree that we use to greet fellows in the street?

You know? Yeah. Because it does throw people off if you don't say good. Yeah. But like, how about the people that actually answer, honestly, from the jump? And you're just like, oh, no. Like, if they really do. Like you were saying, Kevin, you just want them to say good.

But what if they're like, actually, I'm so glad you asked. And they just, like, jump into it. And you're like, oh, fuck. Yeah, they're like, well, I had to get my hip replaced on Tuesday. And, you know, Dale's been acting up. Not Dale. You know? Yeah, Dale and hip replacement.

placement surgery and you're just like sitting there and then you're like okay but i asked that's what i was going to say livia is like you can't if you say how are you and someone gives a real answer you can't i feel like you can't get annoyed even if it's like well i was hoping you're going to do the pleasantry it's like hey man you asked i feel the same way about i will never complain about a meal that somebody makes me because i didn't make the meal so it's like if someone make something and it sucks. Like, well, they spent a half an hour making this for me. So all of a sudden, I'm going to come in with like critiques.

So. That's very kind of you. Yeah. And I've had some bad. No, I'm just kidding. You know what's funny? I watched a clip about Larry David with this exact thing. It was this, um, actor Beck Bennett, uh, and he was on SNL.

He has a podcast. He's super funny, super nice guy. Uh, when he was on SNL, Larry David hosted an episode and he like kind of walked by his green room and he was like Larry, good to see him how you doing? And Larry was like, good.

How are you? And Beck kind of like exhaled and was like, honestly not great. But, you know, I don't know. Just yeah, not good. But I'm not going to bore you with the details. And Larry like lit up and said, perfect answer.

You were completely honest with me. You're not going to bore me with all the bullshit of it. I love that. That is not a good answer. David is my soulmate. Yeah, he's the best. We feel the exact same way. Yeah.

Yeah, so I think it's almost like if it's, you can be honest, but if it becomes unloading to a thing where it's like, okay, well, now this is my next like 15 minutes, and I thought this was just going to be short. Like, I think you can be honest without it having to be, like, taking over the next half hour of your day. So there's probably a sweet. spot to your point, Olivia.

All right. Just curious if you guys appreciate that or if you just want to be like, I'm good. How are you? And that's it. You know. How are you guys with like Uber drivers and stuff if they're really chatty and talking a lot? Or if they ever hit like kind of third rail stuff, I just kind of get very short and I'm just like, I know it's crazy, right?

and just leave it at that. Other of my friends will fully have full on debates, lively conversations and stuff. One of my friends, there's a running joke where it's like, he talks so much that you can tell the Uber driver's like, oh,

you want to listen to some music? How are you guys in situations like that or there's like a chatty driver? Isn't there like an option on Uber where you can say, don't talk to me or something? I've been very tempted by it. I hope so great conversations.

See, Olivia's the opposite. So she will love to have a conversation. Like get done, like down whatever. Any chance she gets me, I'm like, please don't talk to me. Yeah. Like this last one of the last ones, like this guy was, had a football journey. He actually went to Campbell Hall. He played football.

He got scouted from Compton, like got out of his environment. went into this thing pursued football then got an injury and had to do like i'm just like how are you are you like what is your mental state with that like you were like we will i will fucking i need to know how this guy's doing and i kind of am now rooting for him because i'm like he put everything he ever had into football like these are the kind of things that will break me you guys like like he put everything he had into it and it was his life and it saved him and got him a great education and it's like now he's driving an uber not that there is anything wrong with that but it's not football it's not what his plan was yeah yeah and so i'm like how do you reconcile with that

and like what is the pivot and he had the best attitude and he was so cool and so great and i'm like here i look at some people that may be playing football right now that are not not as cool or as grateful as this Uber driver right now. What football players, Luke? Do you know any? So many. I'm just saying like you can put people in the most successful arenas in life and they're not as grateful as this Uber driver.

Wait, I'm dying that you got that Uber driver conversation. I mean, I think about that a lot too with raising Desmond and I'm really, I want to actively have him try to do as many different things as possible. because I also think of one of the other, you know, like if if anyone has a passion that they want to pursue that they become like obsessed with, that's amazing. The only thing that like makes me nervous about it is like I think about one of my friends. I played volleyball from like eighth grade through my senior year of high school. I was on like the varsity team and the club team and I met a lot of great people and it was really fun. But some of the people that were like on the club varsity teams were so up their whole life was about this one single thing.

And then when you would try to talk to them about like, oh, man, I want to go to this concert this weekend. What do you, you know, would you want to see something like that? They're like, I don't know how to talk about anything other than this. And you kind of see like the downside of it where it's like the high risk, high reward of I'm obsessed with this thing. But it's really all I care about and can talk about. And so if you want to talk about other stuff, I'm not going to be, granted, we're all teenagers. So that's probably part of it too. but um no but i get that it's that's what we try and do with elli we're like diversify like

there's interests in so many different things yeah that like that's also going to strengthen your interest in the other things right yeah absolutely um here's a little desmond speak of the devil all right you ready to hit us with a question yep here's the first one Go ahead. What was it like to work on Heart of Dixie? And would you bring back Heart of Dixie? Yeah. I would love to bring back Heart of Dixie.

Honestly, that was so much fun. Yeah. We all had such a good time and it was a fun character. And everything about it was great. I would love to bring back Heart of Dixie. So if you're listening out there, Heart of Dixie gods, let's do it. Make it happen. Yeah.

It was really fun. I think that's one that should come back. Well, I just feel like, you know, because people sometimes compare like the Gilmore girls, like whatever, just a feel good show that's like, I think in our world right now, in our current climate, we need a little bluebell. You know what I mean? Yeah. I agree. Let's sign a petition. Let's do it.

I'm down. Let's do it. You make the numbers to the powers that be. Yeah. All right. I know. I watched a really gritty show. a couple nights ago

and a kid dies and I was like, I can't do I can't watch this. Oh no, you're fucked for life. Yeah, it was insane. No more of that once you're a parent. Oh yeah.

No, it totally changes it. I mean, actually this next question is kind of connected to what Olivia was just talking about. Advice on how to get your spark back after losing it. I think, yeah, it's fascinating with the football player because like another thing about

that I was reading about football players specifically post retirement a lot of them and very few of them try to get the like announcer color commentator role

because then that can set them up truly for the next 30 years but the path to do that is extremely challenging and you know they take like these broadcasting courses to try to like keep that career going and stuff. Advice on how to get your spark back after losing it. For me, I would say talk to your loved ones,

people closest in your life because I just, I trust them the most. And I feel like they know me the most. Whenever I'm like very down, I talk to like my best friend since high school and stuff. That's sweet. And yeah, and I feel like he is able to lift me up in a way that maybe other people who I see more can't because they just don't know me like on the same level. How does Leah feel about you saying that your best friend can make you, bring your spark back?

She would agree. No, she's obviously the person I talked to the most about everything in my life. Yeah. But just people who know you like Leah. in this guy in a way that other people who you might see more just can't connect with you. Or can't help you in that regard. For me getting my spark back just requires an expensive present. Just kidding.

Take this one, Rachel. A new car. A new car. No, I'm just kidding. Olivia and I have a joke about that. Doesn't hurt, though. You know what's interesting, and I find as a parent, because my whole life in existence is living for my daughter, you know? Yeah.

But when you get a glimpse of like something for yourself, which I'm not good at at all, I don't do ever. But like doing that. Well, I mean, I haven't in the past. In the past. So for me to have something just for myself again really kind of gave me that like, I don't know, a little pick me up that I needed. Not that I don't, and it doesn't mean that I don't absolutely love and I would not change a fucking thing, how I live my life and everything I do for my kid.

It's the most important thing. But every once in a while having that little thing for yourself, like really made me feel, you know, energized again. Absolutely. I think it's also, for me, how you get your spark back is in. How did you get a groove back? This is how.

I think it depends on what spark you feel if it's an overall spark or if it's in like different areas, if it's romantic, if it's friendship, if it's career. I think the most important thing for me is for me, for me personally is speaking with people who see my sport.

Yeah, that's what Kevin was saying. Yeah, and can understand it. But there's different people for different things. Like some people really believe in you as a mom and they can reignite that. Some people believe in you in your career. Some people believe in you in what you have to give to the world. And so surrounding yourself with the people that recognize the spark that matters to you. because if you surround yourself with people that are also in the dark on it, that's contagious.

And it's actually really toxic. And so if you feel like something's missing, it's like there are going to be those places that offer you that and it reawakens it. You're responsible for putting yourself in the environments to reawaken it. Right. Right. Right. You have to take accountability. Also just getting out of, like, your routine.

That's like similar. Yeah. Go ahead. I remember once I was going through heartbreak and I read this book and it was like, everything you're doing do opposite. So take a different route to work. Don't drive the streets the same way. Start at the grocery store on the opposite end.

as you would. Because it sparks your brain into the present moment because it's not on autopilot. And most of the time when we're in our head or depression or any of those things, it's because we're in our head. So if you can trick yourself into ways to getting into the present moment, you're going to be more up to be with your spark. I want to say something I saw Mel Robbins, I think, say this morning about her morning routine and it kind of it's like a game changer but there's like multiple steps i'm trying to think like

the first thing was like when the alarm goes off get up right away the longer you stay in bed the more like it could cause depression like whatever like the alarm goes off you're up drink water immediately hold off on caffeine for like the first two hours of your morning make your bed i know some things are really hard right and anyway look up her steps because she was going over it and i thought it was interesting. Some I was like absolutely not. Like hard stop. Can't do that.

Yeah. But it was just interesting. And I bet if you followed it, I'm sure you would feel different. Yeah. Going back to what Olivia was saying too, I think about there are people in in your life that are like, oh, I'm going to call this person to bring my spark back. There's also people who for me, I think about this one friend who was so blindly supported of me. that I actually found it like unhelpful of I would and I appreciated the intent that it was like I'm here for you no matter what but it would be like I couldn't get through a story without like oh man

like this was in college or something and I was like oh my roommate and I just had and he was like fuck that guy I always hated that and I'm like well I was kind of in the wrong too like let me finish the story 100% um so yeah I think being mindful of that too of like are are these people actually going to help or like they actually know specifically like listen to me or are they just helping blindly in a way that is like can be unhelpful frankly. 100% that happens. And I'm like, I can't really trust that because you ride for me so hard. Yeah.

You can't see this clearly. You know. Yeah. Which I appreciate in theory. It's fun to have that too. Yeah, exactly. Because sometimes you just want that. but yeah it can i don't know it can be a little like destructive at times too

i couldn't agree more this feels like it ties in well to the next question what's the best advice you've applied since becoming moms yeah i mean it just kind of apply to like what i was saying i guess yep um best advice go lu um yeah the the single best best best advice go lu um um yeah the the single best advice I got for being a mom was not to compare my journey to anyone else's. And that if we all took our problems and threw them in the middle of the room, we would pick up and walk out with our own. And that changed things for me. Like, really to look at my journey as a mom as my own and not to know it should be or could be or anything.

It's like this is your journey. And it can always be better and it can always be worse. But you would never trade your problems for anyone else's. Right. I feel like no one should come to me for advice. It's what's the best advice you've been given? Right. Okay, that makes sense.

Right. not give to others. Not that you have to offer, no. I feel like I'd have to think about that. I don't have something that just like jumps off the top of my head of like advice that I've been given, like mom advice. I mean, maybe. Olivia gives me advice every day that's always like the best advice ever, but it doesn't always apply to being a mom. Yeah.

I'm just kidding. So true. So true. I feel like what about your mom advice, Kevin? Yeah. As a new dad, I've been given a lot of tips. And the one that I feel like I kind of keep coming back to is, like, except that you're going to make a lot of mistakes. But if you try to learn from them, you know, that's really the best you can do.

And so I try not to, I don't know, I think it can be startling. the amount of mistakes you make. And none of them insane, but just like, oh, I fucked up this feeding window or this nap time or like, I miscommunicated this with my wife or, you know, all of these little things. But as you know, when they start to like add up, you can really like doubt yourself as a parent of just like, what am I doing? Like I'm so fucking bad at this. So then I try to just take a moment.

and acknowledge like the headspace that I'm in and take a minute and then just try to even like just say like tomorrow's a new day you know I'm going to try to learn from all these mistakes some of them I'll probably make again maybe tomorrow but um just kind of giving myself a little grace of like this is for me one of the most challenging things I've ever done in my life but I love it so much and it makes me extremely happy and extremely fulfilled so it's just kind of that battle of like just to embrace that you're going to fuck up constantly and as long as you're you know trying hard and not fucking up like bad stuff you're just going to keep chipping away at it so there it is people there it is people i just got a question i just got a question okay who would

be your favorite person to have on the podcast that we have not had on yet. Larry David. That's a fun question. Yeah, Larry David for sure. That's my answer. I'm trying to think of a good, like, outside of the box, like, like, Steph Curry, even though I really don't know anything about it. Are you a big basketball team?

No, not really. You're not even a basketball person, but Steph Curry is the one for you? fun to have him on the show. I'm not Oprah, because that would feel like some real swag. Like, I've got you in the seat, Oprah. Yeah. Yeah. You tell me, Oprah.

You know what I mean? I've got questions for you. That would feel real monumental. How about Kanye West after what he just came out with a whole interview? Yeah, I just read that big apology. No, what? Yeah, a big apology. like, you know, talking about mental health, like head injury, whatever, apologizing for all the things, you know, how he has said a lot of crazy stuff, obviously, in the past.

He came out with a whole apology. I think it was a Wall Street Journal interview and like apologizing for hurting the people he loved and he absolutely, you know, anyway, just taking ownership of it and apologizing. which I didn't know I will say I didn't read the article I just saw like clips of what people are saying and whatever I'd like to read it for myself because I don't fully have all the information but I'd be curious to talk to him well speaking on that we got another question which is what is one of the biggest mistakes you've made but in retrospect are glad you made it oh that's a great question I have to think about that here's like one for me. The biggest mistake I made was this dude I dated in high school that led to a horrible car accident, which led to me turning everything around and going down a different path. So that was a mistake. The dating that dude was a mistake.

Yeah. Yeah. But then turning it into something positive was why I don't regret it. I think I have a little bit of a little bit of a mistake. similar answer of like kind of going against my gut of like a classic like early 20s relationship of like everyone's saying this isn't a good idea and then just going like now it'll be good and then getting dumped and it's really and you're crying and you're like why did I not just do what I thought what everyone was telling me and but I'm glad I did that because it's like

you know sometimes you rush to a decision that you're like okay you know I need to think a little more clear-headed first before jumping into a big thing. What about you, Lou? I think my 20s. I would say kind of my 20s, like that was filled with a lot of mistakes. Yeah. You know, but I think they really informed the person I am today as a result of kind of taking some hard, knocks and recovering and like really waking up to like choosing who do I want to be.

And I don't think I would have made that choice had I not had those knocks. So there was mistakes made for sure, but I think they were valuable. Yeah. I have kind of a similar thought on like just mistakes in general. And one thing that I'm trying to do a better job of is. I don't like with that I hold grudges. I think it can be like a bad thing to keep in your brain for years and stuff, especially like the person has just fully moved on in their life.

So I kind of feel like one thing that I'm trying to do better about is, like I had an experience earlier this year where like someone did something that really upset me. I told them, I reached out to them and told them, that it really upset me. And they sent me a very sincere apology. And instead of being like, whatever, fuck this. I was like, thank you. I really appreciate that.

And we've been on great terms since. And so that's a thing that in my 20s and growing up and stuff, I would just be the king of like, well, that person did this. And they'd be like, yeah, seven years ago, dude, move on. But as I get older, I'm trying to be better about like, hey, if they, if they sincere apologized and it's all good, we're good. Like, you know, I don't need to like be mad at you if you're sorry, you know, because I would want the same of me.

Like, if I was genuinely sorry to someone, I would hope that they could forgive me and and we could be good. If you have a resentment, you have a part. That's the hard part. Yeah, totally. If you have a resentment, you have a part. I'm not going to write that down. Yeah, that's really well said.

Yeah. I actually was just in a group discussing resentments this morning. I'm writing this in our group text. If you have a resentment. There's like a little step process you can do around that. It's like, I have resentment. What's my part? What is this effect inside of me?

And usually it's one of your own character defects. It makes me feel insecure or security or threatened. or what does it affect and then really owning what your part is and what could I do different? It would be really, I'm not going to do this, but it would be so funny. If with no context, I just screenshot it, a text from Rachel Bilsen sent to me that says, if you have a resentment, you have a part and just posted that. I'm really going through some things. I love it.

That's amazing. But it's, you know, it's a hard pill to swallow. because self-righteous resentment. Oh, I have a hiccups. Intoxicating. Right. Right. Yeah.

But what I've realized is that I'm not allowed those resentments because they're toxic in my body. And when I have that in my body, it makes me mentally ill. So not even for the other person, I let it go for myself. because I'm like, this is causing me harm them nothing. It's like drinking the poison, hoping they die.

That's really well said. Yeah. Totally. That is one. All right. Hit us with our next one. What is a question you wish people ask you more often? How are you doing?

Um, I always think of that kind of condescending thing. I've seen so many times where people are like, I don't ask people, it's very self-righteous. It's like, I don't ask people what they do. I ask people what they like to do. I'm like, I understand the intent is like, we don't all need to talk about our jobs,

but I see people say that with a little too much pep in their step. Mine would be. That's like only Los Angeles. What can I get you to eat? Oh, great question. What do I wish people ask me more? How many tacos? Yeah, literally.

I've never thought of that. Mine is, what are you listening to? Oh, that's good. That's a good one. What are you listening to? My brain would go to music first, but it also could be open to like podcasts and stuff. Sure.

Um, it's all metal music. Um, and, uh, this band I really like called King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard wizard. Sorry, metal. You're like metal. Metal. Yeah. Like, uh, Metallica, Megadeth.

Oh, wait, we knew this. We knew a Metallica. Okay. Yep. Uh-huh. Um, but also this kind of psychedelic rock band called King Gizzard and the Lizard wizard. Okay. Um, something I can't relate to, but.

Yeah. I received. I respect it. Thank you. Did you answer that, Rachel? What you wish people would ask you more? No. What can I get you to eat?

Oh. Yeah. No? Not good enough for you? No, it's good. I mean, it's true. Yeah. Or can I clean up?

Yeah. Yes, you may. You may clean up. What's yours, Lou? I mean, I'm always hungry, so I would love it if people ask me what I wanted to eat or I don't have an answer to that guys. Okay. We'll just say how many tacos because it's fitting.

I'll answer for you. Do you want to go to seize candy? Yeah. When you record in here, I just have all of my... Your props. I have props, guys. Got some sunglasses. This is awesome.

A lace glove. It's a fashion. I'm like in my, you know. Element. I'm in my element. Can you even? I can. Okay, I'm going to do the rest of that.

That's a good question. I wish people ask me more. What? Can you even? Can you even? No, I cannot. I cannot even. All right, next question.

Yeah. These are some questions. Shout out to Caitlin, once again, our social media friend who always crushes us for us. Thank you. She sent me a, like, friendship quiz for each other. So a question to each other. Mm-hmm. Do I seem like a more creative or analytical type?

Rachel, do you think Olivia is one or the other, Olivia? Well, no, analytical. Oh. It's hard because you're the same in a sense. We're different, but it's the same answer. We're different in different ways, but we're both, both. We're both. Yeah.

Yeah. Yep. We're both both. 100%. That's our answer. That's the truth. I like that, though, because I think it can be challenging being too much one way or the other. Because I really genuinely feel that it's both in both of us. Yeah. I really. In different ways. I really like to analyze my creativity.

Same thing. Oh, French with quizzes are fun. They are fun. Here's some more. There's a bunch on here. Do I seem more like a morning person or a night owl? You seem like a night owl. Me or Kevin? Kevin.

Oh, these are for each other. I am a night owl. I know. I know. I know. I'm a morning person. I'm a morning person. You're not a morning person, but you're not a night owl either.

But if I had to pick, I'd put you as a night owl. She's like, you don't do well. You just don't do well when you're awake. When she is awake, she is an asleep person. That would be great merch. I don't do well when awake. That's her.

Yeah, it's like the in-between part that's really hard for me. Yeah, honestly, midday is like her sweet spot. That's a half-time girl. That's really fun. Exactly. What compliment do you think I hear the most? I've got a nice and kiot. That's what my kids say

She always gets complimenter in her eyes Because they're insane I would say that's probably your biggest one that I mean the one that comes up the most Wouldn't you say Lou? Yeah You get complimented on your face Shut up

It's true No What do you get complimented on more than your face? I'm so funny No No. No. You are hilarious.

No, I don't get complimented on my face. You're so, I'm being pretty. I think I get complimented on being a good mom. I probably hear that more. Oh, okay. That's what makes me proud. I just have the eyes. I don't get that anymore as much as I used to.

Let me tell you. your eyes not at all because i'm with my kids and my kids just trump oh yeah you can't with those faces and they just it's theirs now they take it all about yeah yeah yeah are there anymore yes do i remind you of anyone you know i guess could be real or a person like on tv i mean i mean that's too impossible we remind each other of each other of each other do you know one of One of the things I thought was so cute. I was, I don't know. I was in like a workshop or something.

And someone didn't know I knew Rachel. And they were talking about Heart of Dixie. Wow. And they didn't know that I was friends with her. And they're like, you actually remind me of Rachel Bilsen. She's got the same essence as you. That's crazy. It's because we share the same essence.

Yeah, it was like, well. Let me tell you something. I own her. But yeah. But she can't, no, she can't remind me of someone outside of her. Except each other. Accept each other. Yeah, that's the answer.

Yeah. Final answer. What about me intrigues you? Hmm. Hmm. What about? I'm, like, we're asking the question or we're saying what's intriguing about the other person. I don't get that question.

Hey, Rachel, what about me intrigues you? Yeah. Her brain intrigues me because I always go to her to answer all my life question. Yeah. Rachel's... Tits. It's your ass? Yeah.

No, Rachel's ability to... It's like an aesthetic thing. Like, I wish I had that bone. of like she's able to know what the right thing like she would be in another world if she wasn't an actress she'd be an amazing stylist or interior designer or you know just that effortless style thanks you're welcome thanks it also intrigues me how she can she can shut certain things off in her brain and move on to other things but then there's other things that won't shut off.

But there's a way, do you know what I'm talking about? Obviously, you know what I'm talking about. But like, sometimes I'm like, oh, I wish I could just shut that off and just do that. This is so vague, but it's like, no, I get that. Rachel knows what I mean. You get it. Yeah. That's helpful.

Yeah. Okay, last one. What is something you will never say no to? I love you is ice cream. That's true. It's a problem. Rachel will never say no to shopping, even if it is not for herself. Oh, no, especially if it's not for myself.

Yeah. Like, you want to go to CVS? Fuck yeah. Let's go. I think that might be the only thing she'd never say no to. Yeah. Like everything else, she could negotiate and be like, I've got Breyer's soccer. I could be like, I know it's Breyer's soccer game, but.

Do you want to go? Yeah. When you meet me at Target. Yeah, when we're driving back, we'll swing by. Yeah, like somewhere random. She'll be like, do you need? I'm like, no, I don't need anything. You want to go to DJ Max?

Yeah. See you, soccer. See you, soccer. That's true. Accurate. Thank you for answering. Is there something else you wouldn't say no to? Or is that right?

That's correct. I'm probably coffee for me. I'm not going to say them. We don't need to say. I'm not going to say either, because. No, we can't say all the things that we really want to say no to. No, I can't say all the things. One specific thing.

Okay, that's our episode, everybody. We'll see you next week. Thanks, everybody. See you next week. Love you. Bye. Love you. That was a Hidgum podcast.
