00:15:55.380 I mean, I'm getting excited just talking about it. 0.96

00:15:57.320 I remember also hags who have used it writing in saying, why is the serum working so well? 0.89

00:16:02.900 What is going on?

00:16:03.940 And to be clear, the serum, the texture of it is like a cream.

00:16:07.540 It's unlike anything else you're going to use.

00:16:09.760 I'm loving the under eye cream.

00:16:11.580 I've been using that.

00:16:13.100 And I'm very, very vocal about the fact that their body sunscreen is my favorite.

00:16:18.220 It's so luxurious and moisturizing. 0.99

00:16:21.180 I ran into a incredibly glamorous, beautiful woman. 0.99

00:16:24.040 and she is, not that it matters, but French.

00:16:28.860 And she was saying that this is her favorite product line.

00:16:31.580 So that also sealed the deal for me.

00:20:34.400 own this product even like we've essentially pre-endorsed this product and you're sending me

00:20:38.800 like look pia's using it it's it's like that means she means something because i'm already on it it's

00:20:44.780 not just like yeah you're already on it and you're valuing further further affirmation it's not like

00:20:51.640 what's one thing like okay like this person oh and there's a new product like the excitement of

00:20:55.440 new product right right right right old product plus pia equals excitement and that's why i go

00:21:00.720 what does PA mean to you yeah do you think it's the name no I mean she has a great name but she

00:21:05.280 also listen she there's things that she's pushed that I'm buying it and I've liked it totally but

00:22:50.760 to a more sleeping on top of a mattress loaf of bread right it's yeah yeah yeah i don't even know

00:22:56.660 but wait what are you gonna say well a couple things first of all you were the one that was

00:23:00.220 talking about sleep eight or is it eight sleep sure was and yes i want it and i saw that you

00:23:04.420 sent it to me it's expensive so i was talking to someone that was talking to someone yesterday

00:23:08.500 i've begged over not gonna name names i've begged over the years not to name names very famous actor

00:23:12.660 okay wow guess what changed his life let me guess sleep eight swears he's like i go to a hotel now

00:23:18.460 talk about a gorgeous hotel he's like can't get a night's sleep he's like it's changed my life

00:23:21.420 changed my sleep and then here's a really funny here's a really funny anecdote and i hope this

00:23:26.360 protects this person's anonymity i think it does whatever this is like dark but hilarious that

00:23:30.840 someone in his building had recently gotten an eight sleep they chatted about it the guy dies

00:23:36.040 suddenly young guy tragic he goes knocks on the apartment gets his eight sleep that's who he got

00:23:41.840 one yeah from the dead guy a famous actor no no someone else this is someone else i'm saying

00:23:47.180 people are doing crazy things for the eight sleep they're sleeping on a dead man's eight sleep okay

00:23:51.000 it's that good and so i knew you'd like that knock knock knock they're clearing out the stuff

00:24:00.780 uh why did you not like it i mean of course i would it's unbelievable but also sleeping

00:24:06.880 they're sleeping on a dead man's sleep and he hadn't had it that long it's that good but um

00:24:12.460 so for those who don't know because i didn't know this is something that it's very expensive i think

00:24:16.580 the cheapest model is 2200 you put it onto your mattress and there's like these veins from what i

00:24:22.340 understand because it looks like you think you're buying you have to buy a mattress you're not it

00:24:27.640 really looks like that's what it is it cools your mattress and i have it and by the way is this not 0.70

00:41:42.760 I can't explain it. It makes you nut. It's so delicious. Here's the thing. It's not organic.

00:41:48.260 All right, hold on. Tell me why this could be so good. Ingredients. All right. Dry roasted almonds,

00:41:53.060 no palm oil no sugar it's just dry roasted almonds they're not organic and i do like to

00:41:59.140 go organic because you know heavily sprayed almonds you're eating the skins whatever

00:42:03.360 why would the one that's not organic why would this be so sublime what's going on what are they

00:42:09.820 doing here right this is also cheap because it's not organic can't explain it gmo maybe

00:42:16.660 says non-gmo right there i don't think that's an issue i think it's kind of a greenwashing thing

00:42:21.360 like oh no i guess non-gmo for a nut i don't know i just think with nuts the thing you really do

00:42:25.880 want is organic but for some reason all it is is the nuts they grind it up did it i'm getting a

00:42:30.840 little plastic crazy though something's taking hold where you just can't with the plastic i'm

00:42:35.400 just like really scared of the plastics because we're all getting the plastic so it's like

00:42:39.180 at this point but minimizing exposure right

00:42:42.060 yeah it's been um i think i think that one story you know you never know what's going to stick for

00:42:49.040 the people and i think the teaspoon or tablespoon of plastic credit card in the brain in the brain

00:42:53.560 that that that took hold that captured the imagination i remember reading this like 0.98

00:42:58.660 corporate book and on someone's shelf and like i love this shit like when i see it was like 0.95

00:43:02.600 it was like greg and dan heath's like when something sticks or whatever it was like you 0.94

00:43:08.500 know marketing yeah but it was like why something sticks what ideas you know what i mean like what

00:43:13.520 takes hold like people like you could lose a kidney that way they'll steal your kidney

00:43:16.920 you know these things yeah which legends kind of um why certain rumors um

00:43:25.600 i've been charmed by reddit again reddit has been a safe spot away from traditional social

00:43:33.000 interest led like the subreddit cats and then there's like 10 other ones there was a really

00:44:54.860 like everyone has kids and there's no no sorry by kid i meant that i'm a kid i meant like oh yeah

00:45:26.440 the matzo oh that's fun maybe i was gonna take some chocolate covered matzo tonight

00:45:30.640 as a little host gift i was thinking oh here's a fun host gift sorry i'm cutting you off a lot

00:45:35.820 today go for it no it's gonna say because what would you think about this if you show up

00:45:41.920 a mason jar from erwan with a little swirling water that's what i held beautiful and oh by the

00:45:49.160 way that's what product corner if you want if you want to know what this is for product corner

00:45:52.900 if you want to know i'm on my second bottle watermelon electrolyte element obviously still

00:45:57.140 in the rotation but i have a new electrolyte that i'm really obsessed with that i think is

00:46:01.960 perhaps offering some more health benefits um and i'm addicted okay what about this it is in

00:46:10.220 the talk about it later what about this has a little so as we all know i can't you know i

00:46:15.340 drink i can't drink wine i love it in theory but it's just like completely impossible it gives me

00:46:19.540 headache whatever unless of course we're talking about a crisp minerally glass of champagne or

00:46:23.940 kava or blanc de blanc um but the point is what do you think about showing up instead of having a

00:46:29.980 bottle of red wine in your hand you show up you can't enjoy a jar of a pre-batched negroni for

00:46:37.880 example and then you just can you know if you want a negroni you put or you serve people

00:46:44.040 just laughing at this of like you want a cocktail beginning of this party and so you're like i'll

00:46:49.860 bring my own and i'll bring it like how's this for a host gift oh you're right and then i crack it

00:46:54.180 open yeah it's there for you because you can't drink wine like you know what i mean but definitely

00:46:59.860 how's this for a host gift but not just i'm not gonna need a whole jar two jars of peanuts in my

00:47:04.600 pocket realistically you're gonna serve i guess four people five people i mean i think yeah that's

00:47:11.680 the issue yeah i guess it's not so great you know i guess if you go careful that it doesn't look like

00:47:16.540 like you are questioning their ability to fix you a cocktail for one it's a really good point

00:47:21.380 is it because you're seder you're just thinking wine manischewitz kind of situation

00:47:25.780 it's not going to manischewitz it's going to be it's going to be i mean the person hosting it is

00:47:30.300 a literal like wine um what's the word yeah not purveyor like um distributor like there's going

00:47:36.760 to be an incredible wine it's actually devastating i don't drink wine because it's going to be

00:47:40.320 unbelievable one natural wine um natural wine probably some conventional wines too guess what

00:47:45.840 i'm looking at we'll be talking about in a bonus episode an artifact from our trip to paris say

00:47:51.240 nothing has it been framed say nothing save it not yet not yet it's magnetized to the side of

00:47:56.440 the fridge the front of the fridge does not take magnets i want a new fridge my fridge upsets me

00:48:01.220 almost daily wait i wouldn't say that much why doesn't it take magnet it's um that stainless

00:48:07.280 look that's actually made of nothing. Exactly. Yeah. And that's okay. That's not why it infuriates

00:48:14.120 me. I want to be clear. Okay. I have to go, which is really hard, but we'll be back. All right.
