Starting point is 00:01:08 I said hi, Chan, Camp. Hi, Champette. How are you? Good. How are you? I'm so good. Welcome back to Brooke and Connor make a podcast, Brooke.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Welcome back to Brooke and Connor. Welcome back to Brooke and Connor. That's a tongue twist. You don't want to get stuck in a situation where you have to say that 10 times fast. I could if I would if I, you know what? I was going to say that I could if I had to, but obviously. Well, luckily, you're not a wood chuck. So you don't have to chuck any wood today.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Today's, yeah. Today's just a good day. It's a family day. Welcome back from the holidays, everybody. What a confusing week it's been for like across the, are you confused this week? Very much. I'm having a little bit of a hard time adjusting to waking,
Starting point is 00:02:11 having the blessing and privilege to wake up early. Nice catch. Yeah. I'm having a little bit of some difficulty connecting with that opportunity. In a positive way. So. Well said. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:31 This is kind of like the time of the year where I truly, truly, truly start to understand those people that are like time as a concept that was created by man. Because when someone's like Sunday, I'm like, who the fuck cares? January is a Sunday is a Sunday. I fully, I like clicked on on Sunday where I was like, okay, time to catch up on stuff. And I'm sending email after email and people like, hey, just reminder it's Sunday. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:02:55 And I, yeah, this is, it's just difficult and confusing. And I can't do anything or move from the end of November to the end of noce. Don't knowcember. So I can't take that one from the top. I can't do anything or move in a good way from the end of November to the end of December. Like I'm taking a load off like letting myself relax. Happy holidays. Good. And then it becomes I can't move in a good. And then it becomes I can't move in a. bad way from the beginning of January to about mid-March. So I'm actually going to do the Eggs Benedict. But no December, though, for those. I feel the same way. But also, I get, like, such a fire in my belly for January because I felt like such a lard ass these past couple weeks just, like, at home. And I, like, was kind of like stick it to the man.
Starting point is 00:03:55 over the where I was like, no, I'm not opening my email. I'm not opening my email. And now you pay the fine for not opening your email for two and a half weeks. Yeah. Um, I'm struggling. Pretty significant. We were actually speaking of being given blessing after blessing in disguise. And sometimes they're so hidden.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Yeah. Um, we're actually blessed to be in like the only country in the world that like, I have that thing where like people go on vacation everywhere else in the world for so long, like a month at a time. you know what I mean well people don't even like again this is me talking out of my ass I have as I have not lived in another country and don't really know too much about the lifestyles of most others but like in Europe let's say Italy for example because that's a place I've been I feel like they just like don't need these long vacations because they don't have the same
Starting point is 00:04:46 sort of like work life imbalance that we do so it's just like they don't live for vacation because not life is a vacation but life is not like career work oriented the way it is here. So they don't have those high highs and low lows. I guess what I don't understand is like anytime I've been on a trip out of the country and I meet people from other countries and they're like, where are you going next? I'm like, what do you mean? We've been here for eight days.
Starting point is 00:05:11 We're going home. We have to go to work. And they're like, oh, wow. Like we've been here. We have two more weeks to travel and they've been gone for three weeks. Really? I'm like, I'm kind of confused. What countries are you talking about where they might be from?
Starting point is 00:05:22 I met some Australians that said this. I met some Canadians that said this. Australia is all the, like, the exact reverse of us. So maybe it was their summer. Well, still, even in the summer, like, we're not 14. Like, we don't get too much off. Sorry, I was thinking about when I was a teacher. Yeah, like, I'm just confused as someone that works, that lives in Italy, like an Italian
Starting point is 00:05:43 person that works in marketing. How are you taking a month off? It's not the same. Italian people don't work in coffee shop, you know, like, it's not just like. pizza and coffee shop. It's like they still have office there. No, but I think like I'm having a hard time like forming thoughts just you remember how earlier I was telling you that I'm having like I had the blessing privilege of waking up early and I'm having trouble connecting with it. Correct. affecting my brain power to have more like critical conversations like this one. Does that make
Starting point is 00:06:15 sense? I wouldn't I wouldn't I wouldn't put this in the critical category. What'd you say? I wouldn't put this in the critical category. I would. That's how I feel right now. Really? This feels critical. This is a critical thinking right now. Life or death thing. Yeah, that's just, I'm trying to tell you that's the severity of how, of the difficulty I'm having with connecting with my early wake up is that this feels pretty, pretty high brow, intellectual. What's cool. Like I'd be much more comfortable talking about like, I don't want to say like. You're going to say poop.
Starting point is 00:06:51 No. Don't put words in my mouth. I'll put poop in your mouth. Ew. Look at my cup. I can't see what it says. It was given to us during the art competition. Oh, it's you.
Starting point is 00:07:03 You're on my cup. That's, that's you. Oh, no, that is me. No, that's you. Hi. Hi, queenette. Oh, double negative. What?
Starting point is 00:07:14 Queenette would be a double negative. What do you mean? Because a queen is queen, but queenette. Oh, that should be like a miniature queen. Why would that be a double negative? Because Chud and Chudette. Chud is like man. Chaudet is woman.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Queen is woman. I don't think you mean double negative. Yeah, it cancels out. It might be a king. A queenette might be a king. I'm having a really hard time following. See, this is highbrow. Really hard time following.
Starting point is 00:07:46 This is why the princess in the pee was problematic. The princess was given the opportunity to have tin mattresses and she's complaining about a P. I've been thinking about this a lot recently. So me complaining about my opportunity. The Princess was resting atop a mountain of probably Casper's purple mattresses. There might have been a mattress firm in there even. And she says something's off.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Something ain't quite right here. P. P. I think she was on to something. I could see you resonating with Princess. I kind of do you think I'm resonating. You'd be able to feel the pee. No, I understand feeling.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Like, I understand feeling the pee. That being said, I sat on an edamame pee for an entire dinner. I got up at amame there. Like, that was my nest egg. And you didn't feel it just, like, direct contact? It was a part of my experience in the restaurant. I wouldn't change it for the world. Yeah, love that shit.
Starting point is 00:08:47 In fact, I wish I was sitting on an edamame now. We could make that happen if it's something you really need. Might make a wish. Wait, was it, was it shelled or deshelled? It was deselled. It was one single pet. Yeah, nice.
Starting point is 00:08:59 It was one single at a mom. Oh, a legume. Jen. That's Jen, that's Jenna Lagoon. That's low canuently. You're one with a legume. Low canuently. That's a,
Starting point is 00:09:09 that's a, what did you just say? Lo Kenuantly. Low Kenuantly? Yeah. Is that like genuinely? Well, I have my finger on the pulse of the youth and they're saying lokinnually. I've never heard that. Yeah, they've combined, they've married low key and genuinely.
Starting point is 00:09:23 and it's lo-kinnually now. I love that shit. Yeah, I adore it too. I'm being serious. Like lo-ken. Yeah, no, Jan, I'm lo-canu-only. Jen, I'm lo-can-obsessed. Truly.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Thank you for teaching me that. It pits me off when I don't know things like that, though. No, this is sometimes when I feel like we're in like the teachers, the conference room, like we both have our mugs. I'm like, just so you know, like, when the kids are saying lo-canuantly, what they mean is loki genuinely.
Starting point is 00:09:53 this is how I feel. And when you keep saying Jen, I'm like, I caught on. I'm like, she said, because I thought you meant that's Jen. And I'm thinking, what Jen do we have in common? J-E-N-N. Yeah. And I don't know that many Jennifer's anymore. I feel like I kind of aged out of being friends of Jennifer.
Starting point is 00:10:08 We might have aged out of Jennifer. I don't know. Do you know any kids being named Jen? I knew one Jen. Well, one of my best friends is Jen. But I'm just saying I don't think there are Jen's being born now. Unless it's G-E-N. You know a...
Starting point is 00:10:24 I don't, but I bet we're about to start thinking about knowing them. Brooke and Connor spikes birth rates in what's using the name Jen. G-E-N. Yeah. No, I had several gens in high school and then all of a sudden they kind of like skipped a couple chapters compared to me and now they're mama bears. Well, yeah. And also like I'm just thinking like if I was a teacher and I got like my class list and there was a Jen, I'd be like, huh. like you don't see that anymore.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Oh, what a tradition. What a, what a trad name. Yeah, that's going to be like, like, how like there's like grandma Barbara, but you don't see Barbara's anymore. Grandma Jen. I can't picture Grandma Jen. Yeah, we're going to. Wow. It's interesting how these names cycle, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:11:10 It really is. Huh. So I texted you early, early in the evening. You were awake. And I asked if you wanted to do ins and outs like we did last year. Do you want to do ins and outs for 2020? I do. A do, adieu, adieu, a do.
Starting point is 00:11:31 A do. A do. Yeah, I thought of, here's, I thought of ins. I do not think of outs. That's okay. I have a handful. And I think that if any of these call to us and we want to have a conversation about why we chose this, how it affects us if we have an oppositional take, we can feel free to do that
Starting point is 00:11:49 in this space. I love that, Connor. Yes. And if anyone has opposing dots, we welcome them unless it's negative feedback concerning the two of us. Yeah, this is a good warm up for me. And then we can always go back to the conversation about how careers look different in the U.S. versus other countries. Yes, we could revisit that.
Starting point is 00:12:09 We could revisit that. It's something I wasn't ready for earlier. Love to warm up. Get back to it. Yeah. And I think a lot of it comes down. Okay. Let's just do ins and outs.
Starting point is 00:12:18 And we'll come back. Because I just like that I just had like, and I was just inundated with thoughts, like about dentists. And okay, let's see. Like if they have dentists in Italy, They're not. Yeah, like they must have an Italian dentist, you know? They totally do. But the Italians, they go, imagine your dentist is Italian and you have to use your hands
Starting point is 00:12:36 all the time. He's like, put your hands down. I have a knife. You know, like, he's in there with his tools. You think of Italians speak with their hands. I think that like an Italian dentist would be able to control the impulse if it rose. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:53 It's part of the culture there. They need to use their hands. It's like, it's like people from New Jersey. I don't think so. I think they could control it. Let us know in the comments if you're an Italian dentist, sound off. Okay. And I would love if you're an Italian dentist, come on over, check out my molar.
Starting point is 00:13:09 I need a crown. And I'm not talking about the one I dropped. Okay. I did drop it on a plate at a restaurant. They cleared my plate. Oh, I thought you were talking about like you dropped your crown king. I was, but I did also drop my crown of my root canal. True.
Starting point is 00:13:24 I told you this story, right? Oh, God, yeah. Okay. Well, for those of you, those of you don't know, I'll run there really quick. It fell out at a restaurant. I put it on the plate. I went pee. They cleared my plate while I was in the restroom. They dumped my whole tooth into the dishwasher. They said, it's been incinerated. I said, well, that's too damn bad. Okay. I move forward, though. You have to move forward. Do I have a crown? No. Every time I go to the dentist, they gasp. You don't have a crown? No, and look how far I got. Without all that dead weight. Anyway. Okay. Okay. So these are our ends and outs of 2026. So why don't you start? How about you'd start?
Starting point is 00:14:06 Okay. In. Oh my God. Okay. I can't explain how this is not, this was not on purpose. Ends. Videos of people leaving the dentist with their mouth numb. Adore.
Starting point is 00:14:21 I love and have always loved videos of like wisdom teeth, people waking up. like anesthesia, post-anesthesia videos. Like, I genuinely think those are funny. I like when my new thing is like when a parent comes home and their kids are like, and they're like trying to kiss them. They're like, and the kids are like, what is what's up with like mom's face?
Starting point is 00:14:41 Yeah. Bring back like old style like YouTube videos. Like that used to be the shit that was like on Ellen, you know? And that used to be funny. Yeah. I'm totally on board with that. Just good, clean, family, numb, mouth good clean
Starting point is 00:14:57 good clean mouth fun bring it back with your family good good clean mouth fun with your family okay why do you hit me with an end every movie book TV show and limited series being gay is my end
Starting point is 00:15:14 oh okay yeah I think that heated rivalry kind of started something pretty pretty big and I think that the response to that should show the major networks that we need a little bit more than a shit ton more and then all of that doubled.
Starting point is 00:15:31 So I want to see if many gay things as possible in the year of 2026. There's a huge market. Show me what you got. Put your money where your mouth is. Put your money where your mouth is. Give it all to me. Right now, push it out.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Right now. As fast as you possibly can, as quickly as you possibly can, in as much quantity as you possibly can manage. And move the needle. across the spectrum to the other side for me really quick. Thank you. That's my big one.
Starting point is 00:16:00 And obviously, like, I don't need to touch on heated rivalry too too much. Do you want to do it? Oh, wait, we can do it right now. It doesn't matter. No, let's, okay. Let's finish ins and outs. Okay. And then I'll talk about it a little later.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Okay. We're not going anywhere. Hey, we've got all day. We got all damn day. down, make yourself carfrey and make yourself carbony and balka
Starting point is 00:16:28 head. Okay. Girl, winter is so last season. And now Springs got you looking at pictures of tank tops with hungry eyes. Your algorithm is feeding you
Starting point is 00:16:40 cutoffs. You're thirsty for the sun on your shoulders. That perfect hang on the patio sundress. Those sandals you can wear all day and all night. And you've had enough
Starting point is 00:16:50 of shopping from your couch. Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope. It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. What's the difference between butter and butter made from real California dairy? It's the real California farm families behind it. Real people, real care, real intention. Why? Because real matters. So whether you're pouring milk, melting of cheese, or just grabbing one more spoonful of yogurt.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Keep it real. Look for the seal. Real California milk by real California farm families. Ends. Letters with no return addresses. What's the reasoning behind it? I didn't say we had to do, did we have to do reasons?
Starting point is 00:17:40 No, not at all. I'm just wondering if you had one. I, um, would love, I just think it might be fun to start sending letters with no return addresses. Like with, do you, will you put your name there or no?
Starting point is 00:17:52 Uh, no. So it'll be, kind of like a prank call, but a letter. Yeah. I like that. It's kind of like forensic-y. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I don't know. I think it could be fun. I agree. We're not really doing that. Also, me and my friends have a secret snow person that we do every year. And the return address has been a really difficult part of that. Well, why do you need to do a return address on a like a secret Santa? I guess when you take it to the post office to send it out,
Starting point is 00:18:24 sorry yes no person thank you not you don't have to have a return address at the post office you have no because people from like depop don't put a return address on it people get killed okay well i got they were they told me i had to you went to you went to you went to the woke post office okay well that's just i'm just telling you my experience it was a while ago because i stopped going in the post office i'm starting a new post office that doesn't require return well actually like i think i might have just opened up a bucket of worms that might be like, hang on, I'm taking letters with no return addresses out of my ends, actually. I don't, I see
Starting point is 00:19:02 this going down wrong. I think just like if it gets lost in the mail, they have to know where to send it back to. No, I'm going to, yeah, I'm going to head down to the woke post office, actually. I'm on your side again. No, I'm not saying that, I'm saying, I don't think there should have to be a return address because it kind of ruins Secret Santa. So, sorry, snowman person. Perfect, perfect snow person.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Okay, well, that was kind of a wash on my end. Go ahead. No, it wasn't at all. I'm in like a lighthearted, like, murder mystery party type thing. But I guess when you started involving, like, the United States Postal Service in, like, a no return address situation, like, it does start getting... I mean, if everyone was able to carry themselves with a little bit of fun and whimsy, like, this wouldn't be an issue. But unfortunately, like, not everybody has that in their heart. And the post office doesn't really have it. Or the U.S. postal system doesn't really have it in their heart.
Starting point is 00:19:49 They don't. If we could trust them with delivering... are letters and packages to the right venue. Right. This could work. Unfortunately, I don't want to shit. Hey, listen, I didn't come here to shit on the U.S. Postal Service. Nobody did.
Starting point is 00:20:05 That wasn't my attention. But sometimes things get lost. And translation, sure. Okay, go ahead. Stickers. Oh, yeah. I love stickers. I think I used probably 90% of the stickers from the stickers.
Starting point is 00:20:22 from the sticker book you got me that thing is the best thing in the entire world it's massive too it's massive there's the most gorgeous stickers i have been putting them um this will come uh in another one of my ends later but i have an entire journal ecosystem that i'll i'll tell you guys about but i have been putting stickers on all of my journals um i've been having so much fun with it it's so fun and i want to bring that really back into the zeitgeist and the aesthetic of just putting stickers on everything You know what I was I was talking to somebody about this recently It was such a huge deal in college to put stickers on your laptop And it would
Starting point is 00:21:02 It would almost be like Your interest Like I had like Connor A hundred percent And I want to talk about something different Right now you are Yeah like I know I totally know what you're saying and my laptop is kind of like that now You would put like a college sticker on it or like stickers that you like came across naturally in life
Starting point is 00:21:22 So that someone at a coffee shop, for instance, if they catch an eye, they go, I know what this person's about. Yes. I'm talking about like sticker books like you're a kid again. Like check out my Hobbiti. Are you just talking, look at my Hobanichi right now. I'm talking about this type of shit. Like I'm not talking about like Boston University. Oh, you're almost talking.
Starting point is 00:21:43 I'm talking about like sticker books. I'm a kid with my sticker book decorating. You know what this feels like? Decorative stickers. You know what this feels like? And you're on the precipice of something? What? I feel like this is almost like a Tumblr-esque renaissance.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I think it takes the energy that we, when we all wanted patchwork tattoos, and it makes it a less permanent and more manageable way. Yeah. Of putting them on objects instead of your body. You know, it kind of satiates that impulse without permanently inking your, your frame bridge.
Starting point is 00:22:20 aligned Yeah Via Ray So I love stickers Yeah I'm gonna put them on everything I'm gonna put them on my water bottle When I get home
Starting point is 00:22:30 I wish I owned a home So I could do like a sticker door again What home did you own before That you did a sticker door? Yeah I guess just like My college house that I was in for three years And then like my parents' house That I was in the rest
Starting point is 00:22:44 Because right now I can't really put stickers on much Right You could put tape down and then put stickers on and then take the tape off. You know what? I'm not going to do that. Yeah, I didn't think you were. But I was just trying to be helpful. I was just trying to be a good person.
Starting point is 00:23:01 I guess I could put them. Well, no, I don't know. Anyways. Wow, I really don't like mine actually now that you're just so like close to home. Well, these are. It's also a fine line between things that are in and things I just like. Like mine's so far has just been gay in stickers, which like is that something that's in or are those my interests?
Starting point is 00:23:21 I think gay is in. Stickers, I think maybe you started, I'm sure there's a community of sticker heads that like love that idea. There are. Yeah, my next one, steam and fog.
Starting point is 00:23:40 So, steam and fog. Tell us a little bit more about that. I just feel like steam really hasn't had the moment that I think it deserves, that everything else has kind of gotten. And across the board I'm talking,
Starting point is 00:23:53 not even in the wellness space. I think like... Are you talking about the wellness-related steam? I'm talking about everything. Talk about all-team right now? I'm not really seeing as much foggy as I used to. I don't know. I used to see like a lot of fog, I feel like, day-to-day.
Starting point is 00:24:11 I feel like I'm lacking fog in my life, personally. I feel like we could all benefit from a little bit of fog. Steam. I see steam coming out of my dishwasher every time I open. And I go, why don't we harness the power of this steam? Yeah, you love that dishwasher steam. I do. I love to put my face right in it when I open that thing.
Starting point is 00:24:26 So I do actually use, I utilize every ounce of steam that comes out of my house. Um, I don't know. I would like to see more steam in day to day. I don't know, steam and fog. I can get on board with steam. However, I can't imagine like walking outside on a foggy day and being like, yay. Well, you need to see the fog as an opportunity to change, to listen to the neighborhood or whoever. But you can't even see the neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Oh, you mean like kind of when one sense is dulled, the other opens. So you use your listening ears instead of your looking eyes because you can't see. I love where your head went. I was talking about like a playlist that's kind of like foggy. Like foster the people or something. Okay. I'll move on from that because I don't think it really landed too much. No worries.
Starting point is 00:25:20 I'm on board with you with steam. Steam. So fog is where I lost you. Okay, I get it. So maybe we focus on steam in 2026 and less on fog. I'm okay with that. Okay. Meet me in the middle.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Fog is, no, fog is not steam. Steam can be fog, though. I mean, I guess fog is the steam of weather. Fog is a steam of nature. But fog is not hot. Steam. Steam fog is when cold air passes over warm water causing the water's vapor. I like when that happens.
Starting point is 00:25:54 I like steam fog. That can be nice. Yeah. Steam fog can be nice. Steam fog can be nice. Okay, maybe more steam fog. Is steam fog? Yes, fog can be a steam too.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Yep. Okay. We are all seeing eye to eye here on the internet, which is crazy. And seven years ago, someone on Reddit was wondering if there's a, major difference between steam and fog. Hi, where were you seven years ago? All right. Hit me with one. Journaling.
Starting point is 00:26:26 Okay, so yeah, you're loving journaling. Yeah, I have four journals right now. I have four active journals right now. It's called the journal ecosystem. Yeah. And I think that this could really help a lot of people not only be organized. but also just kind of process thoughts in a healthy way and just shit like that. And it's also just a fun hobby.
Starting point is 00:26:58 And it connects back to the stickers of everything. You can put stickers on your journals too. And it's a great outlet. I've got my Hobanichi planner right here, which I use for my daily tasks. I can't believe you even lost that. What? Have you lost it yet?
Starting point is 00:27:15 My hobo? Yeah. Not at all. I'm not going to lose this. Look at all the stickers I have inside as well. And I told you this, but I have all my B and C notes in my Hobonichi as well next to my to-do list. That's nice. So I'll get there later.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I'll get there later. I have manifestations I want to run by you as well. I just noticed that in my Hobanichi. So I have this Hobanichi for my daily tasks. I have a dear diary type of diary, which my nearest resolution is to fill one up. Cool. I have my work notebook like writing and stuff. Nice.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Yeah. And then I have my five year journal, which is really interesting. I hate that. I hate that. I hate that. Yeah, I figured you would. For me, I hate that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:57 But it's like, it's for 2026 through 2030. And so like, what's today? January 7th has one page with five different slots. And each year you fill out a different slot. So you can kind of see like what you're doing on. each day has five years pass or whatever you want to put it's kind of nice it is cool like right now there's nothing in it but at the end of five years it will be so full and pretty my mine would have vomit on every page because i'd be like another day another day pass bleh yeah it would throw up on
Starting point is 00:28:29 every page yeah especially after i got like six months in and i'm like you know you're i don't know but it's also cool because i have such a think about like i could have been like if i started this in 24. Right. I could have been like, I started writing a book today. Like, I wonder if that will go anywhere. And then, like, two years later, the entry on that day will be like, my book is being published today or something.
Starting point is 00:28:53 Like, that's really cool to see that. The next best time to start is now. Yeah. And shit like that. So that's my next in. Okay. Well, my next in is toilet paper pulling out from the bottom instead of over the top. See, I'm not someone who ever notices that type of stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I'm the least observant person in the world, I think. As someone with OCD, you not noticing the toilet paper over the top, under the bottom thing is very deserved. I don't have that kind of OCD at all. Well, mine is like if it's not normal, which is over the top to me, then like my whole day is out of whack.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Like I'm going to think about it for like the next, if something bad happens, I'm like, it's because of the toilet paper. Oh, my OCD is like I had a thought about like my, parents dying and they'll be dead by the end of the hour. I don't like that. I like my toilet paper thing better. Yeah, I would prefer that too.
Starting point is 00:29:51 But I also just, oh my gosh, I have the funniest thing to tell you. I also just saw something that said, I'm getting a lot of like the passage of time, scary TikTok's reels recently on my on my FY. Have you been getting that sound that's like, uh, hmm, do you know what I'm talking about? Izzy, you know what is it? It's like, like scary death. Is it the, I'm here? Or like, mother, I'm home.
Starting point is 00:30:19 No, it's like, robot. It's like worse. Issey, what is it? I can do it in my head. Yeah, it's in my head. It's not translating out my vocal cords. Ooh, if it comes across your desk, which it probably will after this, send it over my way. It's really spooky.
Starting point is 00:30:36 But I've been getting, I mean, mine aren't scary. It's just like, here's how to. Someone said, like, if you change, it's life, like, passes by really fast because we're so used to, like, routine. And if you switch up little things, well, your brain, like when you do the same thing every day, doesn't need to think anything. So it doesn't need to store new memories. So, like, your days are passing faster. But when you change your route to work, this is like when I said, I put my toilet paper under. So it took me a little bit longer to use it.
Starting point is 00:31:09 and then because it took me a little bit longer, I missed a phone call from someone. And because I missed that phone call, I had to call them back on my walk. And because I was on the phone on my walk, I didn't stop and talk to like one of my friends because I didn't stop and talk to that person. They didn't tell me not to go that way
Starting point is 00:31:25 because the sidewalks closed. Because I missed a sidewalk closed, I went to the next thing and I found a $100 bill on the ground. And then I used that $100 bill to, um, I gave it to a homeless person. That homeless person?
Starting point is 00:31:39 Your cancer? Bill Gates. Talking about the butterfly effect, huh? There wouldn't have been, yeah. And it's, but because you change small things, your brain is storing new memories and stuff. And so your time passes slower. I don't know if there's, now I said it out loud.
Starting point is 00:31:56 I think that's pretty dumb. But I think that there might be, it might hold some water. I don't know. It might hold some water. I guess we'll never know. Okay, hit me with one. Air drying your hair.
Starting point is 00:32:08 I do that every day. Well, I guess I'm talking more. about those of us with like long hair. I think that we, I think most people like blow dry it? I think most people look, I'm trying to think if this is true or not.
Starting point is 00:32:23 I think most people look better with air dried hair. I keep seeing these girls on TikTok that are like, I'm trying to air dry my hair. It looks so fucking bad. And I'm like, that looks awesome. Like if you didn't say anything, I'd have no idea that you air dried that.
Starting point is 00:32:36 I think we're just so used to like doing our hair that we don't like, we think our natural hair looks bad, but it actually is really pretty in the way that our hair is meant to fall. So I air dried last night, and that's just what I'm trying to. What? It looks great. It looks great. You must be using the OGX argon oral. I must be. But yeah, I think air drying and embracing the beauty of our natural hair and just putting less heat on it in general could be really pretty for 2026. And that way when you do do a blowout, it's like an event, not. You know, and it becomes special again.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Okay, so that leads me to my next end. I did blow out my bangs. I want to be honest about that. If I didn't, that would be a problem. That's nice of you to be honest about. Not talking about people with bangs right now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Nice of you to be honest about that. That leads me to my next end using you really let yourself go in a positive connotation. You really let yourself go. Like loosened up? Yeah. You let your hair down.
Starting point is 00:33:42 You air dry that shit. Did you air dry today? Baby. Yeah, I like that. Well, you really let yourself go last weekend. Woo! I like that. Isn't that fun?
Starting point is 00:33:52 Yeah. You really let yourself go. I like that. Oh. Yeah. So that's my, that's one. You got one? I have my last one.
Starting point is 00:34:03 It's just board games. Okay. I like board games. That's a good one. Except. Categories. My thing with. board games, it's like, I know it's just a game, but the thing is with me, there's not really
Starting point is 00:34:14 anything that's just a game. I want to win, you know? So that's why I had to stop playing pup-put because it stopped being fun for me and it started to be an issue about friendships and my family, just like the way I would act out. I get it. I broke a club on my knee. I get it. I just think board games are a really good way to engage with people and not be on your phone. Sure. I agree. Have more game nights. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:43 We just had some game nights last week. It was really fun. What did you play? The Airbnb we were saying it had this game called Labopoly. Labopoly? It was lab themed Monopoly, like the dog. Like Labopoly? Labopoly, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Oh, sorry, I thought you said Lab. No, Labb. Oh, Labopoly? Yeah. Nice. Yeah, it was the exact same. same thing. It was just kind of dog thing. You know, I don't know how to play Monopoly.
Starting point is 00:35:12 It's very straightforward. It's just like anytime it's been presented to me, I'm just like, nah. It's not even something that can necessarily be presented to you. You just kind of play it. And it's now you do need to be kind of strategic. Sure, you need to be strategic with your places and your people. But you don't need to really think to hard about it. It's a game of strategy and patience.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Did you ever play life on the computer? Yes. On the computer, I'm asking. Oh, yeah. I played it on the computer. Sure. I also played Family Feud on the computer pretty religiously. I paid for it.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Oh, I pay for life and snood. I've never heard of Snood. Oh, your ass would have loved Snood. My ass could still love snood. I have time. I'm young and I'm terned. Yeah, you are very young. Plan B is a backup birth control option that's there for you when things don't go according to plan.

It's eliminated the morning part where I don't want to get out of bed because I'm cold because I'm already warm and snug. I can be up and mobile and vertical, but as well snug as well. Okay. I love that. Yeah. So that's my last end. I have my outs as well. Tell me your outs. There's a lot more outs than there were ends. Do you want to kind of more rapid fire them?

My phone is always in my hand. Put my ID on my phone. Put my key on my phone. It is kind of shocking we don't have like key cards like hotels for our homes. I think some people do when they live in like nice buildings. I've known some people that like could tap their phone, but I live in this place with a lot of character and crown molding. Yeah. And normal mold. I like crown molding.
Starting point is 00:39:46 Um, okay. Next one. Taking headphones on a walk. I think I'm going to start retiring this because I don't even have anything playing. I just don't want anyone to chat with me. And I want to like, you don't have anything playing on a, sorry, I've got a shiver. You don't have anything playing on a walk?
Starting point is 00:40:01 Almost never. Whoa. Because I want to hear other people talking. I've actually been... This is a lie what I was just about to say so I'm going to restart I've been wanting to
Starting point is 00:40:13 go on a walk with no headphones to think of ideas for writing I haven't yet but that would be a reason that I go on a headphoneless walk and the only reason
Starting point is 00:40:25 Well a good way to start is to put something in your headphones in but don't listen to you Yeah that's nice headphones on a walk with nothing playing as like bringing your dead laptop to a coffee shop
Starting point is 00:40:35 to make people think that you're working on something, even though you just want to go to a coffee shop by yourself? I went to four coffee shops on Monday, and every single one had their outlets blocked off. And I had a dead laptop, and I needed to use it. They need turnover for their restaurant. What the hell is the point of a coffee shop if I can't use it to work on my laptop
Starting point is 00:40:53 that needs to be plugged in at all my girl and a die? Everyone in West Hollywood is a writer, so they're taking up so much real estate in all these coffee shops, no one's able to sit down and buy coffee. Oh, I mean, I am beyond pissed. You need to open up a cyber cafe then. I finally found one after research spending my good, hard-earned time researching cafes with outlets, finally found one. It took a lot of researching.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Good for you for figuring. And guess who I saw there yesterday when I went to my outlet cafe? Who? Kurt from Glee. Congrats. Thank you. Congrats, grads. No, it all worked out.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Good. I'm happy to hear. Yeah, in the end. Stripes on your pants. Plug in the outlet. Okay. Next, out. Every action having an equal and opposite reaction.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Sure. Next out, stairs. Yeah, I've always agreed with that. A big one for me. Out, 2026. Tide to go pins. They stink. and they don't even work.
Starting point is 00:42:05 They don't work, but I would like one that works. Yeah, I would like one that works too. And they don't work. Brooke, give it a sniff the next time. Like, I can smell it the whole rest of the day when after I put it on my clothes. They don't stink. Are you being serious?
Starting point is 00:42:18 Like bad? They smell like something that I don't love. Yeah, they smell like Tide. Pie? Tide. No, they don't smell like Tide. They smell like flesh and chlorine. They don't smell like flesh.
Starting point is 00:42:32 I want you to give it a good. Goodhart sniff next time you put it on your jeans. What does flesh smell like? Like rotting flesh? I don't know. I didn't. Give it a sniff. I don't have a kind of a good pen.
Starting point is 00:42:44 I don't have a scratch and sniff. I bet you do in your car. Next one. Public loitering. I'd like to see more of that. More? Next one. What?
Starting point is 00:42:59 You want to see more public loitering? Yeah, love it. I think we're always on the go too much. slow down, stop and stand somewhere. Chat. Okay. Next one. Salt and Straw, specifically their flavors.
Starting point is 00:43:15 Yeah, you've been saying this for a bit now. Yeah, go to hell. Yeah. The reason it came back up is because there was a line wrapping around the block for salt and straw the other day. I was like, what are you guys getting? What are you guys getting their table light bulb flavor? They do have a great classic vanilla
Starting point is 00:43:32 and they have great, very most sprinkles. unlike any rainbow sprinkles you've ever had before. Just like the only thing that's, the only people that are doing it right are like the OGs, like the Culvers and the Bastian Robbins and the cold stones. Like they have all of those like cookies and cream. Done.
Starting point is 00:43:48 Cookie dough. Done. Birthday cake. Done. Vanilla. Done. Ice cream. Or ice cream.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Chocolate. Done. Instead of like honey, honey crisp apple summer vibes playlist 20, 2012. I hear you. It's like shut the heck up. Okay. Next one.
Starting point is 00:44:06 And this is my last one. Fly swatters. Out? Out. Yeah. Yeah. They look too much like... What are they doing besides existing?
Starting point is 00:44:16 They look too much like spatulas to me. And they're always hanging somewhere very in someone's kitchen. And it's like that shouldn't be here. I think that ever, I don't know. I know there's no answer to that. And I'm not, I'm not acting like I have an answer. I just think they're gross.
Starting point is 00:44:30 And they give me bad vibes. Oh, I was thinking you didn't want like to kill the flies. Are you fine with another device to kill the flies? Yeah, a gun. Okay. So I have to tell you this thing because this has been the funniest thing that's like, did you see that girl that was like worried about the passage of time so she was going to collect a button for every day of the new year? Is you did her?
Starting point is 00:44:56 No, I mean, I've seen a lot of people who have buttons for every day of the year in a jar, but I didn't know it was one specific girl. So this girl basically She posted on some thread that I'm like Or this video that I'm like on Or that I'm like that's coming across my desk About like the passage of time how scary it is And she goes I'm getting her name's Tamara I'm getting 365 buttons one for each day
Starting point is 00:45:22 Because I want to do more stuff and I'm scared of time So I want to be more conscious of it And like it got a lot of likes And then the next person said what is 365 buttons? And she said, one for every day. And someone said, yes, Queen, but what do you mean buttons? Like to wear?
Starting point is 00:45:41 And she said, just to have to see how quick days pass and remind myself that time passes and just have fun and do a lot of stuff. And someone said, what are you doing with the buttons every day is what they're asking? Are you putting them in a jar? Are you wearing them? And she said, she said, hey, so it actually only has to make sense for me to do it.
Starting point is 00:46:00 and I don't feel like explaining it to anyone else. Hang on, it keeps, it's just like a long thread. So then she goes, LMAO, people are just asking you what you plan on doing like literally and physically with the buttons and probably just trying to get ideas to help themselves. And she said, I don't know and I don't have to know, okay? I just want to carry on a button every day.
Starting point is 00:46:24 And then someone said, is the funniest thing I've ever seen. And then she said, someone said, She basically said, girl, IDK, don't ask me. And Tamara responds, yep. And then someone said, so you just have a button in your pocket and you walk around every day with it? And she said, no more contacting, please. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Appreciate. Appreciate. And then she said, babe, you literally commented the idea. You can explain. And she said, no. Heart. Hang on. We're going to keep going.
Starting point is 00:46:55 And then she said, okay. And also, I barely even know what the plan is. I went to Michael's just now and I didn't have enough money to buy the buttons. and I'll find another place to get buttons. Also, I'm sorry if my tone was rude. I know it's hard to have a tone over text. I tried to keep it nice and respectful. Try to keep it nice and respectful.
Starting point is 00:47:08 No, do you not contact me. Okay. Someone said, please just explain it. She goes, they remind me how quick time passes in to have fun and do more. And she said, girl, I'm sorry for this whole comment section. Keep us updated on the buttons. And she goes, okay, L-O-L. That's kind of it.
Starting point is 00:47:24 I just think that. I hope she does. Do you have her? No, it kept going. Holy shit. Do you mean just having a jar so you can see the time in the form of button? Can you tell how much time you have this year? And she said, yes.
Starting point is 00:47:38 I think, I think that's all we needed. Yeah. No, someone said, wait, how can I do this if I don't like buttons? That's good. All right, that's it. It's not a bad idea. It didn't need to go on that long. To go to that.
Starting point is 00:47:54 But it's not a bad idea. Hey. Not to bring it back to my Hobonichi, but. Hey, so it actually only asks. makes sense for me to do it. Yeah. I don't feel like explaining it to anyone else. It's like my day tracker in the back of my Hobanichi.
Starting point is 00:48:07 Yeah. It totally is. Yeah. Except it's a jar of buttons. Except it's a jar of buttons. Buttons. Sorry. You know that sometimes I do.
Starting point is 00:48:14 No, it's actually totally good. So we haven't talked to each other. That was our ins and outs. You had manifestations. You had manifestations. Oh, yeah. I want to put them in our... I don't have any predictions.
Starting point is 00:48:26 I'm bad at that. Then let's do it in the bonus so that we can we have time. Well, can I just manifest them out loud in the main? Oh, yeah. 100%. Okay. I only have two.
Starting point is 00:48:38 I only have two. My first manifestation is that I want Ali Hazelwood, who is my favorite romance author, to do an MLM romance, so gay. What's that? Oh. So I'm wanting that from her. I think that was multi-level marketing. That was the time.
Starting point is 00:49:00 type situation. I was like, you wanted to start an MLM? Man love. Is it man love loves man or man loving man? I think it's man loving man. Yeah, men loving men. Yeah. So I'm manifesting in Aliazolid, would MLM not?
Starting point is 00:49:19 I bet that's in the works. Fingers crossed. Based on how the noodle's crumbling. That would, that would be everything. to a girl like me. That would be seriously epic. And then my second manifestation is just Joe Keri. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Good. That's it. Those are great. Thank you. I just, every time I see him, I'm like, that is someone who I just feel like we could be friends with.
Starting point is 00:49:54 He just seems so normal. Let's have him on. I don't think he would want to do that right now. I promise you. of friendship. I also have a project that I have him in mind for. Ooh. And just looking to connect with Joe Kiri on a personal
Starting point is 00:50:09 and professional level. And that's my, those are my two manifestations. Ali Hazelwood, MLM, romance novel, and Joe Kiri. I don't ask for much. I'm a simple girl. That's it for 2026. You're not simple. You're, um, you have layers. Like an onion.
Starting point is 00:50:31 Mm-hmm. I just met my wishes for 2026 are simple. That's everything a girl like me could want. Come on, girl. Take it for a real one. Anything that you're thinking?
Starting point is 00:50:47 Yeah. I went to the movies the other day. Yeah. Me too. It had been on my list. Because I went to Michigan and Idaho, there's not a ton of screenings of really anything in those places. But I went to see Marty Supreme and it was a special screening. It was, and it wasn't like an influencer thing. I just like heard about it through the great fine. It was 70 millimeter films.
Starting point is 00:51:14 It was, it was shown in that format. And it was like very cool. It was like a time piece. Like you could like tell. It kind of, towards the end, I was like, this is hurting my eyes. But it was very cool to see it in that way. I hadn't seen yet. The way that I could have taken his annex before that flick, have you seen it?
Starting point is 00:51:33 I don't even know what it's about. Is he? Okay. And guess what? Ping pong, right? There's no way. I'm not telling anyone anything about this movie. There's just no.
Starting point is 00:51:43 I want to talk to you about it at some point because I think that you'll really, really, really like it. Really? I wish. Yeah. For me, instant classic. Okay. I'm looking forward to seeing it. And I'm not being hype beast, Marty Supreme Guy.
Starting point is 00:51:56 I'm just like I was, I didn't know what to expect, went. I bit off every piece of my finger. Cutical. and nail. Izzy, did you see it? Yeah, I saw it. Did you like? What'd you think?
Starting point is 00:52:08 I liked it a lot. Those type of movies without saying anything. What could you? What could you guys be speaking? No, Brooke, there's the way that there's no way that you could expect, not even, not even like what happens, but like any, it did not let up for, there was no time to pee. So I want to say. I have no idea what to expect. I want to say, Gwyneth Paltrow is.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Talk like she is exactly who she thinks she is. So excited to see it truly now. She is exactly who she thinks she is. I love. And guess what? So is Timothy Shalman. Yeah. Like, wow.
Starting point is 00:52:44 I love things. And guess what? I really didn't. I did not want to say this about Kevin O'Leary. Never did I think this was going to leave my mouth. Good guy. I didn't say that. Nope.
Starting point is 00:52:57 Let me know what you're thinking. Definitely did not say Mr. Wonderful. But I was. I was nicely surprised. Is he where you? Yeah, I was. Who is he? I didn't realize it was him for a second.
Starting point is 00:53:08 He's on Shark Tank. Oh, I know who he is. Yeah. I kind of like it when you call me wonderful. He is in Marty Supreme? Yeah. And he has a big role. Wow.
Starting point is 00:53:25 I mean, I was wowed. My hat came off. Is he an actor? No. Okay. I have no idea with this what direction this movie could go in and I like shit like that. Yeah, I would encourage everyone to go see it if you're able to, when you're able to.
Starting point is 00:53:42 I was shocked that like I didn't see as much as I'm on my phone, especially during like Christmas and New Year's and everything. Like I didn't see any spoilers at all. Nothing. Like I went into this blind. There's one part that really, really bugs me and I want to talk to you about it when you get there and see if you have the same thought. Maybe I'll go this weekend. Can you close your ears for second? Sure.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Just close, like, put, like physically. The dog, you guys. What the hell? It's still bugging me. Like, I need more answers about the dog. It was okay. Okay, you're good. Good?
Starting point is 00:54:15 Yeah. Okay. I saw a new movie. Unless you have anything else. No, I have one more thing. Okay. No, no, no. It's not about that.
Starting point is 00:54:25 I'll go after you. We'll go tip for tat. Okay. I saw the house made. Yeah? Which I genuinely thought was so. good. Wow. It was what I mean, it was good for what it was. It was exactly what it was supposed to be. Well, it's about a, it's, it's a rendition of a book, right? Yeah. It was a great, very faithful adaptation.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Very entertaining. That's awesome. That's great to hear it for you. I mean, you can't possibly not be entertained, which is why you see movies like that. Yeah. I'm not going for like an Oscar winning performance or film. I'm going to be entertained. And hell I was. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:08 I mean, yeah. So I saw that. I would see that. I would recommend it, honestly. I saw people we meet on vacation last night. Yeah. I want to hear about this because you saying rom-coms are so back, I'll be the judge of that. I don't.
Starting point is 00:55:24 You and me have to have to coincide together on this rom-coms or. You think this is more of a female gays rom-com. Who's in it? Tom Blythe and Emily Bader. The way those are made up names. You know Tom Blythe. So Emily Henry is like probably Rimmie Bader's in it? What? Remy Bader's in it? No, Emily Bader. She's not like she
Starting point is 00:55:53 I don't know. I don't think she's been in much. She was in like is it my lady Jane? is what she's known for but I haven't seen her in anything else besides it. I don't know who Tom Blythe is. What is he in? He was in the Hunger Games
Starting point is 00:56:08 Sunrise on the Reaping. Nope, that's the new one. Songbirds and snakes. He was presidents now. I didn't see either. You didn't see? Well, he was president now. Before he was president.
Starting point is 00:56:20 I've never seen any of his his situation right here. I'm going to be honest. Like the guy, pretty. severe amount. That's shocking.
Starting point is 00:56:31 Yeah, you might not have expected it. Pretty intense feelings. I do think Emily Henry is like one of the most famous romance writers of this generation. She is a fan favorite. And this was her first book to movie adaptation. So people are really, really excited about it. Oh, great. It was great.
Starting point is 00:56:52 I do think it's more for the girls who love the rom-com novels. It's not like a 50 first date. type of rom-com. Thank you for clearing that up. I don't know how you will feel about it. I really loved it. I thought it had maintained the essence of the book
Starting point is 00:57:09 while also being very different because I just finished the book the other day so I was very much like comparing and contrasting the tune non-stop. It was pretty damn different while being the same. You went to Juilliard. Wow. He's awesome.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Good for him. so was she and Lucas Gage is in it oh cool and a lot of people you will recognize Molly Shannon is in it who love Molly Shannon I loved that shit
Starting point is 00:57:43 Jamila Jamil yep oh Sarah Catherine Hook our girl Sarah Catherine is in it wait did you see the rumor that she and Milo maybe got cast as entangled I did see that. Do you feel comfortable checking in with Milo about that to confirm?
Starting point is 00:58:01 You know that I can't do that. Why? He probably signed an NDA. Oh. So I saw, is this thing on? And then, which did I talk about it yet? Hi, Will Arnett best friend. We didn't speak of that. Yeah, I got to sit down with Will Arnette. I know the entire family lineage now. That's crazy, Connor. It was pretty cool. It happened. very quickly, but it was fun. The movie, I really need you to see. Like, in a good way? Yeah, it's a think piece to me.
Starting point is 00:58:35 The way, you know how we like, we really like this is 40? Yeah. And it's light and it's airy and it's funny. This is kind of like, this is also funny, but it's more of like a realistic, like realism piece of this is 40. Like, there's a lot of like,
Starting point is 00:58:49 it's a coming of age movie for people that are like middle age. Like, you know what I mean? You know, that's how I've been describing Phoebe. Yes. Coming of age for people who are supposed to already be of age. Love, that's my favorite genre.
Starting point is 00:59:04 Yeah. So you have me sold. It's kind of like that. And then he basically has fallen into, he being Will Arnette, he's getting divorced from Laura Dern in the movie. Love her. Great cast.
Starting point is 00:59:20 And he basically falls into stand-up comedy. And it's like a shameful day. It's like a funny thing how it like comes out as like, wait, you've been doing stand-up. Like, some people are like, Bradley Cooper directed it. He's in it. He's funny in it. And his dad's like, oh, my God, I had no idea.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Like, he knew he was getting divorced. He knew that, like, the kids were living with, like, the, Laura. But then his dad finds out he's doing stand-up and he, like, goes white in the face. He's like, I didn't know your life had come to, like this. Like, it's worse than the door. Stand-up. Like, what is going on in your life that you've actually fallen into stand? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:53 So we talked about that. I would love if everyone went and saw it. I think it's out in theaters. It's a thinker. People have a lot of movies to see. It's great. It's great. And it's good movies, too.
