Hey guys, welcome back to the podcast. Happy Friday. Episode 15. I'm playing some music
in the background. This is BBC Radio 1. Shit, is this copyright? This is Annie Mac DJ. She's
an Irish DJ and she's, I don't know, a podcaster too, I think, but I need to turn that off.
Happy Friday. Oh my gosh, we made it to the end of the week, even though I do this seven
days a week um am I recording is this so this is becoming the podcast where the podcaster talks
about podcasting and how much he loves it but let me just paint a picture right now um I swallowed
the hard pill again this morning that if I work out I'm gonna regret it as soon as I get to the
parking lot because I'll want to go back home and podcast so that's where I'm at um I just did it
anyways I skipped the gym to do this that's how much I love this and I found I know I found my
passion because I feel so good when I podcast. Um, so I have a lot to talk about today. I'm
going to talk about the social dilemma. I'm going to talk about, um, like my thoughts on that.
Cause I watched it last night. I have a voice memo to play for you guys. Something I said in
my sleep last night, I woke up to record. Um, I'm a little groggy this morning and I've been
looking at neti pots on Amazon. So I feel like I sound congested. I sound congested all the time,
but fuck it. I'm drinking my coffee. I'm sipping my water. Let's talk about, you know, she would
just knock the coffee fact out of the way. Start, start, start off with a coffee fact. Um, let's
just, cause I did that yesterday, yesterday and I'm going to make it a theme here. Um, so coffee
fact today, I'm on the Google. It says it is believed that I'm screaming. Sorry. It is believed
that the cough it is believed that coffee was discovered by a goat herder who noticed that
goats became extremely energetic after eating certain berries because coffee beans are actually
berries that's hilarious goats became extremely energetic after eating these berries and that
is believed how that's how they believe coffee was discovered I want to see that I want to get
I want to get some goats and feed them coffee beans okay coffee fact out of the way um cool
cross that off my list I'm very organized today I have my notebook in front of me I wrote I wrote
my notes down this is like my morning pages instead of journaling about like like my life
or whatever I'm writing like bullet points for the podcast um so yeah let's talk about
uh oh yeah just some thoughts about podcasting too because I can't shut up about podcasting
I honestly in all seriousness the goal right now with this is just and I know this is going to be
like the most this is like the PC thing to say but like my goal with this right now is to learn
straight up like every day learn a bit a little bit more about myself and and podcasting and
slowly over time just getting better and better at this so and I'm um yeah that's kind of the
goal right now I thought about like what's my objective here and it's honestly just to
can be consistent because that's something I've struggled with and learn learn from other
podcasters so slide in my dms if you want to give me any feedback please do not tell me I sound
congested I will um I will ignore that feedback but yeah and then another serious thing too is
like this year, like 2020 has really woken me up to shit. And I feel like adulthood is really
knocking on my door right now. I'm 26. I'm super straightforward about telling people my age. I
don't give a shit. I'm 26. And I just think that I'm like, what am I great at? What's my thing?
You know what I mean? And after watching that, the last dance, that Michael Jordan documentary,
I'm like, dude, I just want to be great at one thing. I want to be so good at podcasting. It's
it's disgusting like I want it to be like I want I don't know does that make sense that's my goal
right now I got really inspired by that and like I'm gonna I'm adulthood is just pounding at the
door it's like Jacqueline figure it out what are you gonna do for the rest of your life and I've
been you know I've told you guys this is my 30-year plan okay so we've already figured out
yesterday we decided that we we ran some numbers we ran some numbers I'm a shrewd businesswoman
and it's going to take me three years to hit a thousand podcasts if I do this every day so
that's my short-term goal a thousand podcasts and then in five years I'll be at 1800 so yeah if I
want to catch up to the big dogs I have to do this every day and I have to crowd them out I'm not
doing it once a week we've already been over this listen to the previous episodes also screenshot
this shit and share if you like the podcast I don't know I have to act like I have to not be
shy about asking people to do this but yeah if you enjoy the podcast share it I'll post I'll
repost it I don't know get it out there episode 15 feeling extra confident we're dating at this
point um I need that kind of I need that kind of support okay um okay so the thing let's see if I
want to do the voice memos first let's talk about my 24-hour update then I'm going to play the voice
moments. I woke up and recorded last night in my sleep. Let's talk about what I did yesterday.
I worked after I podcasted and I didn't work out. I ordered fro-yo. I ordered fro-yo
and I murdered a zit on my cheek. So it's that time of the month and that's what I did. I watched
the social dilemma and I installed my new soundproof and not at the same time but yeah
that's what happened yesterday yesterday was kind of a like kind of a flat day for me not like a
very I don't know I wish I had this is what I wish I wish I had that kind of life where I'm like
yeah last night me and Susie went to the this restaurant and we hung out and like we went here
and it was so fun and then I went shopping and like literally I was at home all day and I ordered
Froyo and I installed soundproof. And so, yeah, uh, that's what I did yesterday. And, uh, okay.
Speaking of zits on my cheek, cause I completely obliterated one. It's not, let's not talk about
it, but, um, the justification for me doing it is, oh, my mask will cover this up. So I don't
give a fuck. Um, why do zits, like when you get acne, does, does anyone else notice this? Sometimes
they get they will be like on each side of your face they'll be in the exact same spot
is that because of like how the blood flows I'm like touching my face right now is that how the
blood flows or something like it makes the zit appear on the same side or in the same spot on
each side I don't know because I've I have one on it's like on my jawline I think that's a digestion
issue if I remember right I think that spot is like or a hormone it's hormones usually chin I
don't know it's like chin jawline whatever um so yeah uh yeah what else did I do yesterday um
uh let's talk about today I woke up early check my stocks dude there's an oil company out there
I don't want to name drop they better they better start drilling that's all I'm gonna say
they better start drilling um I'm watching you and I'm annoyed get that stick in the ground and
start drilling so yeah I checked my stocks this morning um last night oh I didn't mention this I
didn't go to the gym so I did a bunch of yoga which was nice I did yoga while I watched the
social dilemma then like every two seconds I was on my phone taking notes because I was like I want
to talk about this tomorrow on the podcast oh I posted some IG pics yesterday dude here's where
I'm at now. Let me take a sip of coffee. It's early as fuck because I didn't go to the gym.
I decided to do this instead. I'm still kind of waking up. It's kind of like a quiet. I'm just
like, but I feel like I'm waking up. I'm perking up right now. Um, my voice seems really deep.
hi um but like straight up I am applying the I'm applying the information I've received over all
these years from Gary Vaynerchuk and I'm saying fuck it so everything I post is the giant fuck
it like I don't care that I'm nobody and like I mean this because it's like okay I posted a
screenshot of, I said, left or right. I put left with like a sunset emoji, which was my podcast
cover. And then right, I put the volcano emoji because it kind of matches his, this is Joe
Rogan's cover art. I posted that like completely just like, fuck it. I don't care. I'll put myself
in the same category. I'm a podcaster. He's a podcaster. I'm not, I'm not, look, I've explained
this so many times I'm not playing the game the numbers game when like in the way or I don't think
of myself like oh yeah you're nobody you can't even you can't even like this is a who are you
to even do that and even it's but the thing is it's like you have to have that kind of confidence
I'm feeling like Michael Jordan with this shit I'm doing it every day um I have to believe in
myself because here's the thing Gary Vee would tell me this Gary Vee would tell me like hey if
you don't believe in yourself and tell people um and and share your shit with people no one will
take you seriously so and I know it's kind of no one's like wait did I just tune out what's
happening in my microphone um but yeah so I posted that I posted like three things I posted something
that I wrote in like 2017 I tweeted it what am I talking about um okay so should I play the voice
memos now oh let's see what I okay wait so the social dilemma inspired me a little bit last night
it's my pod was my microphone glitching um the social dilemma inspired me last night got real
2006 with my shit got real 2006 with my shit like here's the thing I realized like I'm addicted to
my phone it's a thing but um I tried to do a I was inspired afterwards so what I did is I plugged
my phone was like dead because I was sitting there taking notes the whole time so I put it
away I put it on my charger and I listened to Christmas music I lit candles I made pumpkin
bread and I did um like what did I say lit candles what else did I do it was just a stress-free zone
okay it was a phoneless stress-free zone I got real 2006 with my shit last night and I'm saying
that because that's like pre that's like before I got on myspace and got in deep with social media
and, like, phones and stuff, but, like, yeah, it felt nice. I was just, like, I was taking my power
back. I said, you know what? What would I do right now if I didn't have a phone, and I completed
tasks. I, like, kind of cleaned up stuff. It was really nice. I lit candles. I lit my Palo Santo,
Palo Santo wood, walked around my apartment, cleansed the air, even though I think that's a
bunch of BS. It smelled, it smelled really good, so I did it, but, yeah, so that was last night
after i watched the social dilemma um and here's this thing i was thinking about my little inspo
after i watched it or something that came to mind was one of the consistent themes i want to carry
through this podcast and i'm so serious right now okay so like just understand that this is no
bullshit I'm serious when you listen to this podcast I want you to be a 100% present I want
you to be 100% present I don't want you to multitask you're not allowed to work out while
you listen to me you're not allowed to do the dishes while you listen to me you're not allowed
to, um, multitask, uh, while you're in bed listening to me. You're not allowed to, um,
whatever. Like I need you to be parked next to your phone or your, wherever your radio,
wherever you listen to this. And I want you to be sitting there a hundred percent present.
And this is going to be your, your daily, um, this is a daily practice for you to do that.
because I think that, and I don't want you scrolling a hundred percent. That's the worst
thing you could do. Do not scroll while you listen. So yeah, that's something I want to,
I want this podcast to be like, when I listened to the TJMS Jacqueline Monroe show, I just sit
there and listen to her. And yeah, so a hundred percent serious. I want you to be a hundred
percent present. Uh, I just think it's mad disrespectful when people multitask while
they listen to podcasts. Um, that's rude. Like imagine if we were having a conversation,
would you be well maybe you would be doing the dishes anyways this is like I don't know what
I'm saying I'm just saying like that's what it made me realize like how can we be more present
you know like 100% all there when we're doing a task instead of being on our phones at the same
time so anyways another theme I'm going to bring this up later a consistent theme I want to do on
the podcast not only am I doing the coffee fact the 24-hour update um oh I didn't do my outfit
of the day today I'll do that but I want to do a solution segment so the solution segment will be
where I'll provide a solution to a crisis going on in the world and that'll be my way to like
give you guys something to take away from each podcast because I feel obligated to do that
as much as I want to make this lighthearted lighthearted and fun like if I don't leave
you with something if I don't provide a solution if I'm not an aunt I am so I wrote this down
be an answer to a question does that make sense so I'm trying to be an answer to a question
every podcast I'm like how can I do that and I gotta get deep at least once in the podcast and
leave you something like actually helpful instead of my nonsense bullshit but like speaking of
nonsense bullshit let's talk about my outfit of the day I feel like this podcast sucks
you know why I haven't really so
I rolled out of bed I was too excited podcast I woke up in the middle of the night to
to do a voice memo and I don't know I if I work out and then do this I'm way more energetic
but whatever. I'm still learning. Uh, outfit of the day. Oh, holy shit. I took, I took a cold
shower. Oh my God. It was the best cold shower of all time. I got, you know, like it was like
two minutes. I didn't go for like five, took a cold shower. And then I put on my big oversized,
tie-dye crew neck thing and then I put on my Urban Outfitters there it's like a ribbed thong
I don't know it's great it's cute real comfy I've been like free balling it in my hand like
straight up I don't give a shit I mean it just it's TMI it's my podcast I can say whatever I
want but like it's funny to me when I'm like completely pantless and underwearless in my
apartment with a big t-shirt on all the time it's just kind of I don't know it's a thing like last
night I'm just like watching like leaning back on my couch and I'm like because I don't have a
roommate I'm lying by myself it's like you know I don't know sometimes I laugh at myself I'm like
this is so just like masculine to just like spread my legs like this and just like chill out no pants
anyways speaking of masculine I feel like I get really masculine with my like my energy on here
sometimes and I'm self-conscious about it you know what I mean and I know I've talked about
this a few times before but I just assume everyone's a new kid on the block and their
first time listener but um yeah I kind of get self-conscious because like I don't know I feel
like sometimes I get all aggressive and gross and I'm kind of in my head about it because like
I have this mental picture of like how a woman is supposed to sound and act. I feel like it's so
like, it's so, it's so like, I don't know, like 1950s and like traditional and like, hi guys. I
don't know. You know who I think's fucking with us by the way, after I watched the Paris Hilton
documentary here, I'm perking up, I'm perking up. Stay with me. Um, after I watched the Paris Hilton
documentary, I thought about it. I'm like, I was watching, I'm going to play it. I think I'm going
to play it so you can kind of get a gist of the audio Kylie Jenner you know I think's also
fucking with us with like putting on a little um act is Kylie I think she really really overdoes
her voice because it's kind of her thing when she shows us products and does stuff but I thought
about that I'm like and I'm saying this because like of uh I feel like I sound masculine as shit
and I should sound more like hi guys you know I've mentioned this before but you know what
um here's the thing I'm gonna play Kylie's thing and see what you guys think if you agree
but um this is the truth because you know gotta be serious I feel like
this feels the best when I'm fully expressed I'm not like putting on a little like girly show
you know what I mean like it feels I feel like this is how well this is how I am with everybody
like I want to be like this with everybody and in the past I think if I'm like you know and if I'm
around you know like a bunch of hot boys or like new new front like new girls and stuff like I kind
of put on this more like polished thing I'm more like hi you know and that's like fake as hell
right like anyone would say like Jacqueline just if I don't know I'm just I am so attracted to
people that are the same with everyone like they're the it doesn't matter who they are who
they're with and I know my brother is like this 100% he's such a little he is so he's a perfect
human being my brother is like the most angelic I can't explain it he is the second coming of
Jesus Christ I swear to God but like he is the same no matter who he's with like it doesn't
matter if he's hanging out with his he literally hangs out with like he my brother hangs out with
retired people like they're plus 60 he's a night one of his good friends is in her 90s um anyways
I could talk about my brother and his friends I don't know if he wants me to expose him but I
think that's so cool he doesn't have a he's the same if he if he's with older people if he's with
younger people the president the janitor the the grocery store clerk or his boss he's kind of just
this consistent he doesn't have a he doesn't morph you know what I mean so I'm trying to this
is my self-mastery course that's my goal because I don't know I just think in the past I've been
like shy about being this version of myself and I'm I'm trying to be less self-conscious about it
like hey guys this is me I'm not putting on a little like I brought this up because um
uh oh masculine with my shit sprawling out on the couch what was I saying oh and like how
Paris Hilton does her little, her little, like, hey, guys, that's hot, like, she does her ditzy
voice as, like, a character on purpose, so, yeah, I'm gonna play Kylie right here and see if you
guys agree, let me see, is this copyright infringement, she's gonna come for me, she's
196 million followers, holy shit, wait, let me see if I can get some audio, hey, guys, this is a
really special day for me today, because Kylie Skin is officially available in Nordstrom all
over the country. You guys enjoy all the products. I love the backside of my tour. Do you hear it?
Okay. So I don't know. I'm sure that's how she actually talks like a hundred percent all the
time. But sometimes I question, I'm like, I don't know. She's an influencer. She's greatest of all
time. Kylie is, I love her. Um, that was no hate. It's just like when I hear people, sometimes I'm
like, is that really how they fucking talk? I'm so on my head. I'm an over my, my brain is so
overactive and I think it's like uh it's that way because I was a bedwetter as a kid like everything
about me is overactive everything about me is overactive and especially my brain like it never
stops thinking it never stops analyzing it never stops going like oh what if or like how come that's
like that yeah but I think it's that way because I was a bedwetter that's like a good indication
that you're going to be fucking batshit crazy and do your own daily podcast and have like an
overactive brain at 2 a.m. like I'm gonna play that next so that's the next thing so just bear
with me episode 15 bear with me um yeah was anyone else a bedwetter is that TMI I had some
traumatizing stories at like uh what are they called fucking slumber parties at my friend's
houses dude I was such a deep sleeper okay should I just talk about my bedwetting journey I'll just
say a couple things I got it my dad was like he was so my dad and mom are so like nice about like
they were never mean to me about it they weren't like bullying me about wetting the bed but it got
to the point where I got a fucking alarm that like would go off it was a pad you put under under your
mat like on top of your mattress under everything and then if it detected I guess like piss it would
would the the alarm would be so obnoxiously loud and like the thing is once you start peeing you
can't stop it's so hard to stop and I like sucked at that but I still remember my dream what would
happen is I would dream about being on the toilet and like peeing and then I would just
like pee in my bed so does anyone else remember wetting the bed I should look up statistics on
that like how many kids are bedwetters here I'm going to do a little google search I didn't mean
to talk about this, but you know what? Part of my, um, part of the unattaching or detaching from
my stories that embarrass me is sharing everything. So fuck it. Hi. Um, okay. So how many people
what the bed? I don't know. Is that the right, is that the right search term? Why am I talking
about this? One to 2% of adults. Okay. That's not me. I do not want the bed anymore. However,
the number is maybe higher. Why do adults pee the bed sometimes? I want kids. Why does my 13-year-old
wet the bed? Medical conditions that can trigger secondary urinosis, including diabetes, urinary
tract, I don't know. I said that because my brain is so overactive and it makes sense because
everything about my body is overactive. I'm just a very overactive human being, especially with my
technology use, let's be honest. I'm going to get into that. We're going to talk about the social
dilemma but right now in this so coming soon or right now introducing this is BBC radio one
and okay I need to stop uh this next segment please skip ahead if this is annoying or gonna
be boring because I'm it's me in bed I I did a I voice memoed a couple times last night I don't
really remember what I said but um yeah I'm gonna play that now feel free to skip ahead a couple
minutes. So this is what I was thinking about last night. Okay. Here you go. Hi, I'm in bed
and my eyes just went blurry cause I took off my sleep mask. Um, but I've been rehearsing
for the last 30 minutes. I've been rehearsing ideas of what I want to talk about tomorrow
morning on the podcast. So, I just thought I'd do a voice memo because this is absolutely
insane that I can't even get to sleep because I can't stop thinking about podcasting. Um,
hi, it's 2.41am and I just have to get this off my chest. I think it's mad disrespectful
that animals like safari animals in africa kill other animals why can't all animals eat grass
you know so yeah why does a why does a tiger have to go eat or no that's asia right
are tigers in africa why does a lion have to eat a gazelle the gazelle eats grass why can't the
lion eat grass too animals killing animals i'm over it i think all animals should be vegan
and i'm pro-choice for humans to choose but not animals i'm gonna eat meat forever but
lions i'm sick of it stop eating gazelles leave them alone okay leave them alone thank you
yeah so speaking of overactive brain that's kind of shit i think about at night i guess um normally
i write it down but last night i did a voice memo trying to give you guys some some real solid
content um let's see what also got on this i'm looking at my notes here play the voice memo
crossing that off I'm so organized with my shit guys I'm so organized with my shit this is so
like pre like I'm not not to toot my own horn but I'm not reading off a note on my phone I'm
actually reading off fizz like my actual paper um okay it's way too hot in San Diego guys it
was 90 yesterday and I was sweating because I have an AC unit thing in my apartment or I have
like an AC what's the term whatever um but I don't know how to turn it on so I'm using fans and
I was I was just dripping sweat from my forehead yesterday and I was like um what the fuck uh it's
September I just I just wanted to get cold can't wait to go home to Washington to have my little
holiday time with my family for a month but yeah um okay so it's way too hot in San Diego
what else can I fucking talk about before I get serious I'm avoiding getting serious right now
um fuck what else can I talk about oh yeah song of the day I played in the beginning let's let's
tell you guys the song of the day Annie Mac DJ this is BBC radio one I'm obsessed with BBC radio
one I used to be so into everything British because I like it's a thing I could tell that
whole story but um my study abroad I did over there dated someone from over there dated two
people my first boyfriend was British so first and second first and third I don't know route 94
my love Jess Glynn official music video I'm on YouTube right now route 94 my love type that into
youtube it's so good there's a little taste I don't know like I'm gonna get I don't know um okay
so okay oh I'm getting a lot of dms by the way shout out to you guys for sending me dms that you
left a review um but I'm getting a lot of dms people are nervous they're not nervous they're
like oh my gosh I have to catch up I'm so far behind I'm like yes I'm crowding these bitches
out I'm doing a daily podcast I'm like drowning you guys you guys are serious you're like under
you're so fucked if you just started listening you have 15 episodes to catch up on how many
hours is that it's got to be like at least 20 hours because I do an hour per episode or like
an hour and a half shit I think one of them was two hours this might be a two-hour banger because
I'm waking up let me finish this sip of coffee I'm like waking up still I'm starting to perk up
I'm going to talk about the social dilemma but I'm avoiding it because I don't want to get serious
right now here's the thing about getting serious if I was a news reporter I would have to wake up
like 3 a.m and get serious at 5 a.m on the news teleprompter thing so I have to pretend I feel
like put on my little reporter hat and be like if this was my actual profession and I was paid to
like share the news and be serious then I'd have to buck up and do it buck up dude imagine being
a news reporter this year imagine oh my god imagine taking that seriously too I've said this
I think it was like episode five I'm like why the fuck hasn't anyone on the spot quit and just said
on air on live tv this is a bunch of bullshit I'm contributing to everyone's mental health
problems right now by sharing this information making everyone scared this is all bullshit this
is all calculated and I mean I don't know I know they all need to feed their families and they all
have a job and respect those people because yeah there's a lot of important news we need to know
about but there's a lot of bullshit and uh anyways so I'm gonna pretend I'm a news reporter
right now should I get serious I don't know if I'm ready to get serious let me like I'm looking
at my dms right now um okay my mom is with my brother and my grandma right now and she was
sending me videos last night in her hotel room because she's visiting my brother and it's so
sweet I always screenshot my pictures of my mom that she sends me they're just the funniest she
takes the funniest selfies. Shout out to my mom. Okay, so Friday the 18th. Wait, let me check my
stockies right now. One sec. Get drilling. Get drilling.
Okay, so let's get serious. Here's my little
social dilemma serious segment. Okay, because
here's my takeaway from watching that um great documentary um great documentary I think it was
I want to watch it again there's a lot of good quotes they like posted on there that I was like
wow that's I've never thought of that before um but here's the thing this is my like giant
epiphany about all this is that I feel like we all looked the other like we all looked the other
way when we knew we were addicted to our phones does that make sense like I think we all did this
I'm saying like back in I'd say high school so like 2000 I'm gonna just shoot this back a decade
like 2010 we started getting social media and like 2012 I had Instagram for the first time but
I feel like we all looked away. We all ignored the fact we were addicted. Even though we knew
we were, we ignored it because it became the primary source of communication. It became
slowly like the 1% thing they were talking about in the documentary, how it slowly changed our
behavior over time. But what's crazy is that like any other substance that would take this much of
our lives away from reality would send us right into rehab like imagine if you were on a drug that
sucked your life out of actual reality for six hours a day because some people's phone use is
like six to eight ten I don't know how many hours mine's like around three I think or no mine's like
way high right now but um it's got to be more than that because my job I'm always on my phone but um
anyways I'm just thinking about that like I think it was
it was like a slow thing over time and we all like I knew you guys if you think about it you
knew you're you had a problem like always checking your phone but we still did it everyone did it and
it became so normal but yeah let me look at my notes here um oh and I have a so the solution
segment is kind of in regard it has to do with the social dilemma the thing I want to
tell you guys see what you think basically they said like it's this whole situation was
created by like 25 white guys in Silicon Valley creating notifications for thoughts we didn't
intend to have yep I've always said that like I didn't ask for this we didn't sign up for
this shit um yeah if you aren't paying for the product you are the product yep uh I've always
I've always known this attention attention equals money like that's what the companies are competing
for the more they can keep us on their apps the more money they make it's all about attention
that's why we're like the more you check your apps the longer you're on them that's how they
make their money so I have a solution to that I think I'm going to change the world with my
solution I'm feeling really confident episode 15 but anyways um algorithms are opinions embedded
in code yep that's kind of scary and they're not objective they don't give a fuck um oh yeah like
this whole um hold on this is not cohesive because I'm if I really gathered my thoughts
and I should have like rehearsed this before or something fuck it um yeah fake brittle popularity
from looking good on Instagram that's something they mentioned like people's popularity based on
their appearance is so fake and brittle that's not actually like a real that's being popular
for something so brittle like a like your beauty you know what I mean and that's why I've said I'm
coming out as myself I came out of the closet as myself this year with this podcast and I don't
want to I don't want to be I don't want to play the hot Instagram girl shit anymore like I've
always said this there's enough hot girls out there I don't want to play that like look at me
I'm so hot bullshit like it's so brittle it's so fake it's so like it really I think it it's
it's really sucked me from myself to think that like this is the way to do it this is the way to
show up on the internet is to like always look poppin now I'll pepper it in I will say I'll
pepper it in but I'm not like that's not my um I'm not leading with that that's not what I'm I'm not
building my online persona around how I look. I'm trying to make you guys
fucking tune in every day and listen. This is your, this is how you, I want you guys to know me.
Just take me seriously. I'm sick of like you guys just thinking I'm like,
um, Oh, I'm, I wrote, I'm the last generation who knew what life was like before social media. I
think that's why I have a unique perspective. I'm trying to stay true to my roots. My brain
is always guiding me back to simpler times I don't know some bullshit I wrote but it's true
like I do feel like I'm I'm part of the generation that's seen both sides and there's a piece of me
that's very like nostalgic for the past like I just want simpler times where I wasn't constantly
you know checking my phones and whatnot this is getting too boring and serious but let's talk
about the solution um okay so the social dilemma I might keep talking about it over the next few
episodes because it's hot and it's hot and ready off the press hot and ready off the
Netflix press dude I I my I swear to god I don't think I can go a day without getting
a suggestion from Netflix like everyone is constantly suggesting shit on Netflix and
this is the first time in a long time that I've gone yeah I'll actually watch it so I'm proud I
did I'm excited I'm happy I watched it it was banger it was a great documentary um
I have a book here the tyranny of words it's related to this serious segment I'm a news
reporter right now guys just get over it um um oh wait oh my Instagram post yeah okay so let me let
me go on to that I'll read what I wrote so I wrote this on a note I've been looking at my notes in my
phone to come up with content content for the podcast I'm proud of myself part of my 24-hour
update is yesterday, I compiled everything into the TJMS folder, so all my notes and all the shit
I want to talk about is in one section of my phone, because it was all, it was so discombobulated
yesterday, it was so, I'm like, Jacqueline, figure it out, fucking figure it out, I sat there and got
all organized, and it feels good, but yeah, I wrote, I found this note I wrote in, I think it's, yeah,
2017, so yeah, I was an early adopter of this mindset, guys, I'm a, you know what I mean,
like, I'm an OG, uh, boomer about social media. OG. I've been talking about this shit for a long
time. I tweeted, like, I have to prove, prove it to you guys. And this is me being all like,
I'm so cool. I'm so woke. Um, I wrote like in, I think it was 18. I was like, I don't think social
media is the best forward progression for humanity. Then I like weighed the pros and cons
and I don't think it's the best. And I wrote about that, tweeted it. Um, I still remember that
because I screenshotted the tweet and I saw it the other day um but yeah I wrote on a note guys
I'm so intelligent I think the thing about me is like I am I have an overactive brain because I was
a bed wetter and I think all geniuses and all people that are super fucking with it were bed
wetters bed wetting is like let's normalize wetting the bed and being a genius I don't know
dude I have to have confidence I have to have confidence you guys will not
I don't know I don't give a fuck okay so I wrote on my Instagram on a tweet I screenshotted the
only reason I tweet is for a screenshot to post on Instagram I wrote this is how my brain assessed
how the internet is dividing us back in 2017
17. Okay. So I wrote proximity divided by intimacy equals the amount someone will hate you.
The internet has increased proximity. Anyone is a profile click away with no increase in intimacy,
which increases hate. It's a simple, it's a simple algorithm. It's a simple algorithm.
The less you actually know someone, the more you can hate them. That's why you guys are all in love
with me you guys know me so well if you listen to 15 episodes at this point you guys are you guys
we're in love because you know you can't hate me because you know too much about me at this point
but you know what uh Karen Karen in Nebraska is a profile click away on Facebook and if you go to
her profile and you don't like what she's saying you're gonna hate on her because you don't know
her you can click on anyone like that's the truth is like the more intimate you are with someone
like the less you can hate them because you know them too well you have you can have some empathy
you understand their story you know what I mean like you understand where they're coming from
because you know them so that's what sucks about the internet is that you can go to anyone's profile
any stranger a profile click away and you can see something they post and disagree with it
immediately and hate on them because you don't actually know them so it's kind of like this
is how I think of things am I recording why am I serious um okay so like
it's kind of like if you haven't gone to like a shooting range gun range in Arkansas with someone
like actually in person and had a conversation with someone in Arkansas at a gun range
don't hate on them for being a Trump supporter unless you've actually been in conversation with
them and done that like that's what I want to invite people to do is like go find people you
disagree with have like an in-person conversation with them and then and I'm not saying you have to
agree with them I'm just saying have that kind of like I don't know give people some like
give them I don't know and then on the on the opposite side of that it's like if you haven't
been in a gay strip club in West Hollywood with a super progressive liberal person like don't hate
on them for liking Biden this is just like a stupid example or like whatever like you have to
really walk in other people's shoes and get close to them the whole proximity thing's an issue
because you see people you disagree with online you can't even it's like literally ask for their
phone number call them up do a FaceTime and like really get to know them ask them questions get
curious about it find people to disagree with you why did I say that but do you know what I mean
like that's the issue is that we're not our communication sucks no one's actually having
like deep conversations anymore with people that are on the opposite side and
that's the issue is the proximity the internet has increased the proximity
I can go on my Instagram and I follow like I don't know I like unfollowed a bunch of people
after watching that documentary last night I followed 940 people I could click I could I could
be on 940 people's profiles over the next like I could check everyone out for the next hour
like that's how close I am to them I'm not imagine trying to be around like about a thousand people
in person every day that's like that's not normal you know what I mean I don't know do you guys tune
in for this kind of shit so yeah I tweeted that I posted on Instagram someone commented what they
comment also people have no accountability in social media and internet half the things people
say they wouldn't have the balls to say it on their face to face yeah it's kind of cliche but
true like anyways so yeah my solution this kind of segues into my solution the solution for social
media has to be super fucking fiscally oriented because it's not like these companies can just
take one for the team and take a giant ass pay cut and fade away for the sake of humanity they
gotta they gotta get that fucking bag still whatever the solution is they gotta get that bag
they got to secure the fucking bag so whatever we try to do to fix it has to get them paid
and so what I'm what I've assessed I'm so fucking smart I was a bed wetter um so gross I need to
stop normally it's wetting but I'm drinking coffee I was trying to get serious to provide
a solution here for the world but here's how I thought of things like the underlying issue
after watching The Social Dilemma is the fact that people are not in person with each other
like they should be. And that's the issue. People are, there's no, like the human interaction
is so flawed right now in how we exist. So the solution needs to get people,
it needs to build it needs to rebuild our communities and it needs to rebuild
our connection with people in person so i wrote here fucking me like last night jesus okay i wrote
what if social media companies promoted in-person activities and were paid according to attendance
these activities take attention away from phone use and encourage community gathering
like the cool thing to do is to spend time socializing and the phone is shunned
i said can these companies fade can they take a pay cut for the sake of humanity
yeah they're paid a court they're paid so attention gets them paid right now so the longer
we're on the apps the longer we're on the apps the more they get paid so what if the least so
the the shorter time we were on the apps they were paid does that make sense i thought what's
the opposite of that if we were not on the apps for as long could they somehow get paid
does that make sense so if I think if they were paid according to people's like the less people
were on their apps the more they got paid so if they had like averages of everyone's phone use
right now because they have all that data and they and then they could prove it to however I
don't know how it works but like they could show like their numbers because it has like they have
to show growth they have to show like you know quarter after quarter they have to be as a company
they have to be growing but what if they could show that hey Joseph in September went from looking at
his phone eight hours a day to four hours a day and then there could be some sort of like
payout for the difference in time or something like that does that make sense because the
solution my fucking epiphany or like I think it's obvious the solution is we need to be on
our phones less so how could they how could they be in what's the incentive you know like how could
they be paid to make us paid by us being on our phones less okay so that's how I thought about it
so does anyone want to slide in my dms and get creative with me about that um and I liked the
the thing I wrote another note I wrote here is that people's the argument is that people go and
I've I've I've totally said this too many times I've said oh it's just the new reality like we
have to accept this um this is just the way it is technology is here to stay and blah blah but
the great thing they brought up is that our brains didn't accelerate like the technology is
accelerating exponentially but our brains are staying the same so our brains can't catch up
and that's the problem. So anyways, I think that I want to create, so my merch I want to sell on
this podcast isn't going to be like a cute sweatshirt you buy. I'm going to make a little
tiny bed for your phone. I'm going to make a little bed and I'm going to sell it. I'm going
to have like, you know, a website and everything. I'm going to do a launch and I'm going to create
a product that it's like a little bed you tuck your phone in at night, but it's like you tuck it
in and it's in a straight jacket like the covers will not come off you set a timer and it's locked
in place there and that's the product I want to sell I think we need to put our beds to sleep
our phones to sleep our phones need to have like nap time like babies and yeah I thought about like
if I could sell merch that's what I want to do I'm going to create that little bed for your phone
or like a little hammock I could have a little hammock I could have like a little tree so I
could have like two little trees and then a hammock and that's what you put your phone in oh my god
how fucking zen would that be dude am I a genius or what I'm a genius I'm a genius so yeah that'd
be so cute and that would be so normal like normal and cool like the cool thing to do would be like
put your putting your phone in a hammock for like three hours a day and then while that's in a
hammock you're reading a book or you're taking care of your your bills and you're taking out
your garbage and you're completing tasks and you're socializing with friends and you're actually
in this real world than study real phone world okay I'm leaning back a lot right now I feel like
I knocked that horse to death um social media equals tool social media does not equal leisure
I wrote that end of story yeah okay so straight up consistent theme I want to carry through the
podcast be 100 present when you listen that's a requirement it's a requirement of listening to
the Jacqueline Roche shows, you have to be 100% present. I'm kind of kidding, but, like, that's,
hey, that's how I want to be known. Like, people are 100% in tune with this conversation,
tuned in, whatever. Second theme I want to carry is when you go on to your apps,
whether it's Instagram, whether it's Twitter, whether it's Facebook, whether it's TikTok,
whatever be a creator contribute be like use it as a tool where you go there to post you don't go
there to consume and I know that's really hard to like here I remember learning this in my like
leadership class I think in high school one of my favorite teachers he's my economics teacher he
said there's people that in life there's people that watch things happen there's people that make
things happen and there's people that go, what just happened? And be the second. I think I want
to, I want to, I don't want to inspire you. I don't want to be like that or motivate you because
there's enough of that shit out there, but straight up go make things happen on social
media. If I could boil down all of the shit about social media and pull out a golden nugget,
I would say this, I'd say, unless you're contributing and you're, you're helping people
and you're just posting and you're not sitting back scrolling and consuming, you're probably
going to be a lot healthier mentally. Like I found that with not to, I'm just, this is one giant
toot in my own horn shit podcast, but like I've recently, I've in the quarantine, it was kind of
easy to sit back and scroll all day. But like I straight up, when I go on Instagram, I'm there to
post I I I do maybe like yeah I watch a few stories from people but I mute like I only watch about 10
stories not even that sometimes like maybe like right now I have like you know when you have the
bubbles at the top there's only like 10 people sitting there and I interchange people all the
time like you know I follow people that are I I watch their stories for different reasons like
inspiration or I think they're hot or you know what I mean like it just depends um but I keep
it concise and I only like I now I'm just going there to post like if I posted my story posted
my story get off my phone dude I'm such a boomer and like you know what but it's so like I just
got to get it out I got to tell you guys that be make things happen don't be the type of person
that watches things happen and I know it's not for everyone but I I know I need like that's stupid
because I need an audience and I need people to like I guess I don't need you guys this is like
fully my passion and I just love fucking doing this every day and I can't shut up about it and
I didn't work out this morning because I just wanted a podcast it's just something something
to think about I feel so much better about posting a podcast every day and talking about things that
I think are important and like being, I don't know, like a voice instead of sitting back and
watching things happen. Like I'm actually contributing. I'm getting some, I'm getting
skin in the game now, man. I'm getting my vocal cords in the game. Take advantage of that. If
you've ever sat back, sat, sat, sat back, sat, this podcast sucks. If you ever take a second
and think about the fact that like your voice is such a powerful tool and
it could like literally everything in the world that changes is because someone spoke up and had
a voice so I don't know it's not for everyone some people are leaders some people we need
followers we need leaders we need followers we need there's you know whatever but whatever um
dude why is it still a conversation to fucking um drink a lot of water every day
why is that a conversation to drink a lot of water every day trying to like change the subject
I'm so sick of it guys so speaking of muting people and unfollowing I had I was so triggered
after watching that documentary last night I went on a rampage and I'm like any it's mostly
blogger chicks like I'm just gonna put them in that I'm just gonna say because I don't see a
lot of men telling me how much water I should drink I went on a rampage on following people
that were sharing obvious shit with me I'm like dude I gotta be I gotta I gotta live in a in
alignment with my beliefs and I am so sick and tired of people teaching me how to like be like
obvious facts about being a human being like drinking water and like how to make my fucking
scrambled eggs or like dumb shit you know I mean so I went on a rampage and followed them but yeah
like why that in 2020 why is that still a conversation and I have a theory about drinking
water I I really believe this you can uh put this in quotes put my name next to it on my tombstone
but I think it's popular to um or it's healthy to drink a lot of water every day like a gallon
is the recommendation most people say because walking to the bathroom 400 times a day is great
exercise that's just my opinion personally so the more you drink the more you're walking to
the bathroom the more exercise you're getting and that's healthy so anyways um okay this podcast
it's Friday I was trying to you know fucking the social dilemma got me in my feels and it got me
thinking deep um do we need a little annie mac break it's bbc radio one
fucking neighbors upstairs can probably hear me
um i swear to god my neighbors are like dude who's what's happening downstairs
i can honestly i can never hear them talking i can only hear them fighting um that happened
the beginning of the quarantine like every fucking day there's a vent that i can hear
everything through and they when they're in their room I can hear their conversations if they're
like screaming at each other but for the most part I can't hear this level of like um talking
so I assume they can't hear me either um okay so happy Friday um I was gonna read the tyranny of
words okay so I have this book here called the tyranny of words I got it at the dumpster at my
old apartment someone left there or someone moved out and they left like 50 books how 2019 is that
shit how 2019 is that shit someone left like 40 books next to the dumpster dumpster when they
moved out and I I scooped up half of them half of these books um imagine doing that in 2020
oh my god imagine fucking someone leaving shit next to a dumpster in 2020 and thinking
yeah I'm really scoring right now I'm gonna totally take these books inside my home
fuck, what a time to be alive, fucking what a time to be alive, um, yeah, let's have a moment
of silence for that, so yeah, anyways, got this book, The Tyranny of Words, probably still smells
like shit from sitting outside, it's kind of old, um, Stuart Chase is the author, but here's the
thing, I went to this fucking landmark course, um, I was, I was putting it against my will,
was forcefully enrolled in that course um because apparently I needed to by a certain person
um long story I think some of the folks online know him now as Chad but let's just say that
I'll just say this is that course had some positive things um that it left me with some
it left me with some positive mindsets or new new ways of thinking and the number one takeaway
from that is that nothing has nothing matters or has meaning it's just like whatever you
whatever you give power to and meaning can take over your life and like that can become very
problematic and toxic for your for over time if you constantly are in the same story loops and
you you keep getting triggered by the same shit over and over and over again because you keep
giving meaning to it meaning to the situation meaning to the story but when you don't give
If you don't, if you don't attach meaning to things, and especially words, that's why I'm
going to read this. It's so freeing. And you're just like, it is what it is. It's like,
why am I getting so upset about something that's, it's just something we created as humans. We
created a meaning around a certain word or a certain situation that we put a negative and
of positive to so the whole like Eckhart Tolle you know it doesn't matter what happens it is what
it is that whole mindset of like it just is there's no negative to it there's no positive to it if you
can think like that more you'll be a lot happier but anyways the tyranny of words Stuart Chase
this is this useful analysis of language continues to exert a forceful influence directing our choice
and empowerment employment of words towards accurate complete and readily understood
communication and this is a quote from harry hansen a reading of this book instills the belief
that we must not be the slaves to words which themselves are merely tools okay so yeah speaking
of social media speaking of fake news speaking of all that shit we're slaves to literal letters
combine together like think about that if you see a word on the screen if you hear someone say
something it's so like don't your life can become a living hell if you attach so much meaning to
that and I don't know if anyone's ever thought about that before but like can you just it's
hard like to be unfazed is so hard to be like unaffected by what other people are doing and
saying it's really hard but like if you think of it like that like it's just words it's just
language it's not it's a tool and it can you know obviously I'm using my voice here I'm my
I'm applying it I'm I'm I'm sharing fucking this is a train wreck of a fucking podcast
drinking some water
fuck this shit this is what I judge myself about like Jacqueline like just play the funny role
play the like bullshit role don't play the I need to get serious and educate people role
but it's because I'm it's because like you guys first of all I'm blaming you guys you guys hit
me up in the dms a lot a lot about oh let's have like I want to talk to you more about this let's
have a conversation about this and then that's what I'm kind of doing on the podcast now to kind
of get everything out, but, like, fucking, I just want to be, I just want to keep it joyful in
light, anyways, the tyranny of words, words are tools, don't be a slave to words, put your phone
in a fucking hammock, I'm totally making that, guys, I swear to God, everything about me is,
like, I don't want to be like anyone else, and I know, like, I'm going to have a spinner wheel on
my video podcast launching next month, I'm going to have, like, a wheel of fortune, and first burp
of the podcast, first burp of the podcast, I'm going to have a wheel of fortune, so quirky,
so different. And merch is going to be different resting places for your phone to tuck away. So
I'm going to have like a little, think about like those little Japanese, what kind of trees are
those? You know, those little trees, they're like friendship trees. That's not what they're called.
Whatever. They're tiny little trees you have. You know what I mean? They're okay. It'll be like
that, but there's two of them. Then there's going to be a little hammock and that's where you put
your phone so I'm gonna have that and then I'm gonna have a bed like a little doll bed but it's
gonna be specifically for your phone but it's a straight jacket so your phone can't escape
and then anyways so yeah I'm gonna make some cool merch it's so different and quirky because I don't
want to be like anyone else I'm probably gonna have my own coffee company at some point instant
coffee I need to drink more episode 15 I feel like I'm getting worse at this each episode
it's because i'm getting my period that's what it is
caught me slipping chewing ice talking about my period and i'm burping
disgusting um oh should i talk about my soundproof it's so fucking annoying it fell off
it keeps falling off the wall because i don't have the right adhesive so i have to get new adhesive
and um that's what's up um this is podcast too long what time is it yeah okay oh let me check
my little stockies check my little stockies how are you guys doing how are you feeling um it's

I'm so organized with my shit I'm so 2006 with my shit I'm so organized with my shit
oh let's express some gratitude right now let's express some gratitude right now I know I shit
on a lot of influencers and this whole podcast so far has been like one giant fucking bowel movement
about how much I'm just over it and I just can't I'm just like fucking over it but I have I want
to express some gratitude right now so this is my verbal gratitude journal I'm really grateful for
all of the influencers ever that have taught me everything I know because seriously I would not
be a podcaster if it wasn't for you and I'm no no no bullshit like I wouldn't have the
mentality I have if it wasn't for influencers but like I've said I've I'm grateful for you
I just think it's time to retire I think it's time to retire I think it's time to stop telling
me shit telling me the same shit over and over and over and over again forever um anyways I'm
grateful for influence I truly am when I really think about it I'm like I know what the best
morning routine is now I know what the best books to read are I know what the best like clothing
brands to purchase from are I know what the best I'm looking at my camera the best vlog camera is

sticking their tongue out like Megan the stallion because of the WAP video
imagine well okay I don't want to think about kids like in that song it's just so fucking weird
um but anyways I'm wearing my Olympia perfume I said a long time ago the reason I talk about
my perfume is because I've established that we're dating and if you want to know what I
smell like you can go to your local Nordstrom and go to the the fragrance section and smell
my perfume to imagine things I don't know just trying to paint a picture I'm trying to get you
guys into your feels it's been a rough year especially people that um are single you know
what I mean so you know what like I'm just that woman in your ear every day I'm that woman here
she's here for an hour a couple hours talking to you um but anyways I'm wearing my Olympia
yes Olympia perfume I I've established that this is my work perfume whenever I was at the office
my corporate jobs I would wear this and I felt like it's not too like I'm not trying to it's
not too flashy I'm not trying to you know attract like it was just like a neutral like I smell nice
but it's not too sexy it's just like a good one and um but yeah now I'm at the office again now
I'm in my this is my job so I'm wearing it every day and I love that's my honestly one of my
favorite routines in the morning I'm not trying to be an influencer right now but my favorite
routine is to put on my perfume and then my whole apartment smells like it for the rest of the day
dude I love it when guys okay now I'm thinking about guys but like I love it when guys
they okay I don't know when someone tells you you smell good all the time it's just like so
flattering I'm like I know I do but I seriously smell so good I've always been like into like
smelling good like my hair's on point like my my lotion everything's smelling smelling good
I don't know um my favorite perfume though is Chanel Chance not the
I can't even speak French, but like the perfume version, not the lighter fruity ones. It's not
the pink bottle or the green bottle. It's the like orangey pink bottle. Um, okay. Like what
else can I talk about? Oh, I have a note here. I was going to talk about my, um, my fighting
technique as a child. Like I was going to tell a long story about how my siblings and I are
different fighting styles. Cause I had an older sister and a younger brother. My sister's a year
older my brother's two years younger and like we did we had different techniques and we would get
into brawls you know what I mean and I remember pinching the fuck out of their arms like my thing
was pinching and I would get my fucking nails involved and that's not I broke skin I'm pretty
sure like multiple times so I was the pincher in the fights my sister was the aggressive kicker
her leg was like a fucking it was like a log it would just like it was so stiff and aggressive
and like very robotic. And then my brother, he was more of like a wrestler. He would get like,
he would like wrestle more with us. I don't know. But yeah, I remember just pinching the
fuck out of them. I'm also having a note here, how we would hide under laundry baskets. Dude,
we would hide under fucking. So I just, just, I remember this so well. I'm talking about my
childhood past to get you guys like, you know, I want you to reminisce with me right now. I want
you to be like, I don't know, try to strike up an emotion. I'm a real, I'm a shrewd business woman
and I'm a saleswoman and I got to get your, got to get you in your feelings. Okay. I need to,
I need you to be so emotionally involved right now that it's, you're going to shed a tear and
think about your childhood. But straight up, we would take our laundry baskets and we would hide,
like I would get underneath it. The one I'm thinking about is yellow, like bright yellow
and no holes and it just this big yellow bucket thing and we would like go underneath it and then
my brother and sister would sit on top of top of it so I couldn't get out that is the most
oh my god oh my god that is the most claustrophobic like I feel like I'm gonna die experience I've
probably ever had and we would do it on purpose like it kind of it was a fun adrenaline rush it
was like oh we're gonna like suffocate each other under here so yeah we did that the other
claustrophobic shit we would do is uh we had these afghan blankets that go around the like on the
couch you know what i mean there's always a fucking blanket i'm looking at mine right now
draped over a couch so think about taking one of those blankets and then we would put each other
so we lay the blanket out flat and then we would get on we would lay on one side and then put our
arms at our side so they weren't free and then roll each other up tight so you couldn't move
and it was like a straight jacket and then they would sit on top of you we always did these
torturous things where we like make each other's claustrophobic and then we couldn't move
so yeah I have two distinctive memories of that another note I wrote here is
dude these moments prepared me for fucking life they did they prepared me for life
um just think about it like I'm just I'm so cool and calm under pressure I could sit there and I
can deep breathe when I'm when I'm in a straight jacket if I'm suffocating like that's the reason
why I'm successfully um or I'm doing well with the smokes because like I know what it's like
to suffocate I've been sitting on I know it's like to suffocate underneath the fucking laundry
baskets for my whole childhood I'm chewing ice um but other shit we would do
this is a two-hour podcast I should have started now fucking a fuck feel free to listen to this
in two days I don't give a shit uh we used to do this thing where we'd sit on the edge of the
ends of the couch and like this makes no sense but think about like a a love seat size couch
because we had a love seat size couch then we have like a normal size couch
these couches were fucking just like like so 90s so ugly oh positive affirmation alarm just went
off hi um and we would sit so facing each other with our legs straight out
on the ends of the couch and like put our feet together and then like push as hard as we can
and like push each other up against the like the the armrest thing and we would just like
force be so aggressive about it and like it was kind of like whoever could I don't know like
push the other person the farthest or something it was really strange but I loved fighting my
brother and I we got to that we had this phase it was really really strange where we did um
my parents had us in CrossFit when I was like I think it fucking I think I was like in sixth grade
they started CrossFit so super cool and super um like wow my family's so cool but um we were
involved in CrossFit like before it came out I think like we met the fucking who's the founder
Glassman I don't know we like went up to Vancouver and our um coach our like CrossFit trainer guy was
like, um, shout out to skip. He was, he like started a CrossFit gym inside of a gymnastics
place. I don't even think it was like, it was called CrossFit, but anyways, they, um, at one
point, like a couple of years in, they started doing Krav Maga. And so anyways, I'm saying this
because my brother and I, we were kind of like, we would do the workouts. Like I started in CrossFit
when I was like, I don't know, 12, like super young. Like I'm so cool. Cause I did CrossFit
so young, but, like, Jesus Christ, I even got trained by fucking Mike Bergner, my sister and
I, I think, yeah, we went to one of his oldie lifting training classes, we, like, drove out
to Whidbey Island, I think it was, where was that, I don't remember, up in Washington, anyways,
my mom was in deep, too, she was, like, such a badass at CrossFit, right before she got breast
cancer she was like training to be in the fucking um games I think it was or like the what's it
called crossfit games yeah but yeah so anyways a couple years and they started in Krav Maga and I
remember my brother and I we had this fun fun-ass time like playfully doing Krav Maga where we never
really hurt each other like that bad we always pushed the limits to the point where I was like
okay that was a sting but i'm not like crying and we we would do it for so long and like it was such
a it was like a joke kind of because we were mocking the guys at crossfit that would do
krav maga because it was kind of like i don't know it was like ridiculous they had the little like
fake knives and shit and they took it so seriously and it's a great honestly like
krav maga is a great um like self-defense shit is such a good skill to have and
I don't know um so yeah I just thought of that fighting styles as kids to end the podcast
um happy Friday let me go on my phone one more time to see if I have anything else I could rant
about social dilemma fucking a let's uh pay these companies to keep us off our phones or like pay
pay them to the less we're on our phones the more they get paid how does that work someone dm me

So I fucking do it. And it's like, look, I know what it's like to DM someone and just get a heart
or just get like, and I sometimes do that, but at least I respond or just like get, get left on
scene or you feel like they don't really give a fuck about you. But like, honestly, I'm pretending
like you're all in the same room with me right now. We're all hanging out. Like I want to be
all your friends because some of you guys like you really like you'll send me fucking essays.
and I'm like you really get in deep with me in the dms and it's kind of like shit it's cool like I
want I think that's the positive about social media is like having conversations with people
like that I don't know like I'm building a fucking tribe here or something I'm looking for people
that disagree with me too 100% like if you don't like something I do or if you're hate following
me and you're like Jacqueline shut the fuck up about the podcast I'm annoyed I like following
you, but I'm sick of this podcast shit, slide in and let me know. I really want to find out like
I need everything's I'm dude, my arms are, I have a huge, my wingspan. First of all, this is why I
was a great, um, great at defense playing basketball. My arms, I have a positive wingspan
of six inches. So I'm five, six. My wingspan is six to five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11,
12, one, six, one. I can't do math. I'm not even going to try. Anyways, my arm span is six inches
positive to my height. So my arms are wide open right now. I'm inviting all DMS, all hate, all
love, anything you want to say. I'm literally standing in like fucking Jesus Christ right now
with my arm straight out. Um, I can't wait to do the video podcast. You guys can see all this
October 1st. It's dropping. Oh my God. Okay. So DMS, um, since it was 8am here this morning,
when I asked you the iced coffee seemed appropriate oh that's cute kissy face someone
listened to the podcast at 8 a.m he's on I think he's in the Ukraine I don't know where he's at
Nikol I don't know he's followed me for a while hi if you're listening I know you're trying to
catch up he asked me how to watch the show guys link in bio fucking apple podcast if you're
listening right now you've already figured it out okay what's another podcast
oh I've lost a few friends because they found out I supported Trump's fiscal policy so now
they think I'm a huge racist who treats women poorly oh that's what I was talking I mean like
Jesus people are so I don't care if you love Trump hate Trump love Biden hate Biden just
like don't cancel people and cancel friendships over it like imagine being that emotionally
charged by someone's opinion to the point where you can't even fucking be friends with them or
follow them that's weak ass shit that's pussy shit fucking pussy shit that's that's some little
bitch shit be be a like use some brain cells understand that everyone has a different life
experience. Everyone has a different upbringing that gives them a perspective that's, that's
unique to their own life and their own, um, situation they're currently in. And so it's
easy and it's, it's really popular to be like, if you even like, I'm, I just can't even talk
to you. So I'm sorry. Um, I won't say your name, but I liked your comment. I'm going
to reply, so dumb, so dumb, sort of sad face, you know the sad face with like the, it's
like the slash forward, this podcast is fucking three hours, I don't give a shit, it's Friday,
hey practicing for the three-hour podcast

days a week I don't know like I said I'm just so fucking quirky and different and unique and I
can't be like everyone else and I just am now at the point where I'm looking at people that do
once a week, and I'm like, dude, buck up, buck up, do a fucking podcast every day, I don't care

buck up, get with it. Dude, the voice memo of me saying that I'm sick of, um,
safari animals eating each other and how disrespectful that is. I think that was the
highlight of the podcast guys. I was up at fucking 2am having a little dreamy dream
and I woke up to record that. So
I'm just saying like I'm going pro at this shit that's some premium fucking content

Um, but I prepared the basket.
I put it next to my front door to do my laundry because as you know I have a laundry service here
but I refuse to fucking use it and I drive 30 minutes north to Del Mar to use the laundromat
up there because it has um it doesn't smell like a laundromat it accepts my visa I don't have to
collect quarters because I I don't like feeling poor having to fucking use quarters at a laundromat
