00:00:13.300 to seek but never to find it was berlant and novak the whole time

00:00:18.000 i'm cold bought a space heater really yeah it's fabulous hello 35

00:00:27.360 Wow.

00:00:28.040 That's a scary price.

00:00:29.400 Because it's so cheap.

00:00:30.100 I know.

00:00:30.880 Well, also, and it was very.

00:00:32.040 You get it on Temu?

00:00:33.220 No, I got it on Amazon.

00:00:34.740 You know, 10 million reviews, five-star reviews or whatever.

00:00:37.200 Yeah, I know.

00:00:37.820 Now you know to look at the quantity as well. 0.99

00:00:40.020 Well, because my partner had a shit Honeywell space heater. 0.99

00:00:45.100 No good? 0.99

00:00:46.280 I think Honeywell is a classic brand.

00:00:47.700 I got my new one, and I go, are you joking me?

00:00:49.820 I go, we're getting rid of the Honeywell.

00:00:52.220 They go, we don't need to get rid of it.

00:00:53.640 I go, yeah, we do.

00:00:54.380 That's a nice color.

00:00:55.540 Pretty.

00:00:56.360 I read in a magazine when I was, like, seventh grade.

00:00:58.880 It was, like, I forget what it was,

00:01:01.280 but I basically was, like, decided, like,

00:01:03.260 I could make my lips, like, fuller, like, just by,

00:01:05.960 like, I'd stick it forward and leave it there, like.

00:01:10.400 It's interesting.

00:01:11.300 It just looks like I'm blowing out my lips, right?

00:01:13.560 Yeah.

00:01:14.660 No, that's why it's interesting.

00:01:15.760 It's, like, I sometimes wonder about

00:01:17.240 when people think they look like family members,

00:01:19.640 and it's, like, how much of it is inherited expressions?

00:01:23.860 Interesting.

00:01:24.640 Well, a lot of it.

00:01:25.460 It's got to be part of it.

00:01:26.800 Definitely.

00:01:27.640 I had an interesting experience where I was looking in the mirror

00:01:29.700 and I thought I look bad and I was like really like kind of in a bad mood.

00:01:34.940 At home?

00:01:35.580 Home mirror?

00:01:36.100 Yeah.

00:01:36.580 And I was sort of looking at myself and I was like,

00:01:39.520 I was like, not, I was like, and then I was like, wait,

00:01:42.480 what if I just were this?

00:01:45.060 Okay.

00:01:45.740 War?

00:01:46.720 No, were.

00:01:47.720 Oh, yeah.

00:01:48.060 What if I, like, the problem here is a gap between expectation

00:01:52.100 and what I'm perceiving in myself to be. 0.99

00:01:53.840 i go what if i'm a wench okay yeah what if i'm hideous and like a right what's the asshole yeah 1.00

00:01:59.980 like a fucking just a rude woman who's like grumpy and like it's just like it's just like 0.99

00:02:05.340 what you know what i mean like yeah it was like that's an option it's like literally it's kind 1.00

00:02:12.600 of interesting actually go why not it's so big but you're not ugly no i don't i don't i'm not

00:02:17.660 even talking like how i'm like dressing myself okay like i mean like it was actually it was like

00:02:23.120 more like really it was about the soul okay like it was like it was like i was like look at myself 1.00

00:02:28.480 like you fucking like just a grumpy asshole kind of thing like i was just like you're a fucking 1.00

00:02:32.900 asshole like you know what i mean i was like yeah and there was this assumption in me that that's 1.00

00:02:36.300 like that's not what i am right right like what if you are yeah or like what if i just chose to be 0.93

00:02:40.840 like yeah it's so baked in like like of course that's not who i really am right the real self

00:02:46.940 right is lovely and and all this kind of like you know it's like this thing like mitch harwitz i

00:02:51.860 think forget like you know he's the books about the occult but it was like he was referencing

00:02:56.040 this idea of like ego versus essence okay and like everyone thinks like all of their good qualities

00:03:01.180 are their true essence right right right and like the rest you know what i mean and it's like

00:03:05.220 that's why we must integrate the shadow but it was kind of a moment of good i was just like

00:03:09.260 my inner ugliness was appearing on my expression yeah and and then like why can't i be that and

00:03:16.220 like i think i even like came down to chris and was like i might be like just a wench now yeah 0.63

00:03:21.980 Like just be like a pissed off woman. 1.00

00:03:23.580 You just like become like a miserable cunt. 1.00

00:03:25.440 Yeah. 1.00

00:03:26.040 Like not even so much about treating other people.

00:03:27.980 Yeah.

00:03:28.980 Like almost like.

00:03:30.460 That's funny.

00:03:30.900 Inner unpleasantness.

00:03:32.340 You're like, you just go and you're like, I'm unhappy and angry.

00:03:35.400 And I'm sure a lot of people actually have done this.

00:03:38.380 Like not everyone is like so determined to find inner peace, joy.

00:03:45.160 Like my assumption that everyone else is in the aisles of the self-help.

00:03:50.180 You know what I mean?

00:03:50.640 like right constant striving to like you know enjoy life or something like like it's like being

00:03:56.840 anything and waking up and being it again has some satisfaction so like being like waking up being 0.87

00:04:03.100 like here's my like here's my anger here's my fucking irritation like yeah it's like probably 0.82

00:04:08.000 i could get through it faster yeah so i just i don't know i was like what am i trying to you 0.95

00:04:13.880 know look in the mirror like you're trying to like tell yourself a story of who you are i i don't i

00:04:18.880 I don't know what it was, but the fact that that feels like a revelation felt like, damn, I really got to get in there. 0.73

00:04:24.860 Yeah.

00:04:25.540 I got to bring her out fast. 0.78

00:04:27.140 Yeah. 1.00

00:04:28.080 Wench. 1.00

00:04:29.120 Yeah. 0.91

00:04:29.660 Animate.

00:04:30.240 Wench is a very charming term, though.

00:04:32.420 It's not real.

00:04:33.020 I keep on having this thought that people can wrap their head, their leg over there.

00:04:38.580 I can't do that.

00:04:39.500 I can't put my head around my—just now, I almost thought that I could, but I can't even get it past that.

00:04:45.060 Ow.

00:04:45.660 I bet you could.

00:04:46.780 No.

00:04:47.600 Should I try?

00:04:47.980 You're very flexible, aren't you?

00:04:49.320 Just now I had this feeling that I could right now at the table go like that.

00:04:53.660 Oh, my God.

00:04:54.760 Yeah.

00:04:55.500 But I'm just curling towards it.

00:04:56.600 You weren't curling towards it.

00:04:58.420 Curling.

00:04:59.320 I can't.

00:04:59.960 Oh.

00:05:00.740 Ow.

00:05:00.980 Yeah, we're the same.

00:05:02.020 Okay.

00:05:04.560 All right.

00:05:08.020 Oops.

00:05:08.980 Oops.

00:05:10.120 I'm starving and I want to get the vermicelli pad to you from Holy Basil.

00:05:16.060 What?

00:05:16.800 Bone in hand?

00:05:17.540 So?

00:05:18.340 You joking?

00:05:20.120 All right, let's do rapid fire questions.

00:05:21.720 Okay, great.

00:05:22.080 Let's think about this.

00:05:22.640 Great.

00:05:23.080 Right now, shower or bath, if you could do one?

00:05:25.080 Bath forever.

00:05:26.200 Right now, though.

00:05:26.740 Never need a shower again. 0.87

00:05:27.580 Bath.

00:05:27.800 Okay, great.

00:05:28.360 Got it.

00:05:28.800 What about shower on while you're in the bath?

00:05:30.800 Don't like that.

00:05:31.520 You never tried it, though?

00:05:32.440 I've done it.

00:05:33.320 Maybe not, actually.

00:05:34.540 Okay, interesting.

00:05:35.520 You have lipstick on your teeth.

00:05:36.480 I love you.

00:05:38.980 I do the bath even just to keep warm.

00:05:41.140 I love the bath, as we know.

00:05:42.620 I get in sometimes to keep warm, too.

00:05:45.400 I'm telling you, I have circulation issues.

00:05:47.000 tips of my tip of my nose freezing tips of the toes freezing tips the fingers right we are in

00:05:53.260 a cold space right now no but yeah sure oh you know what i'm doing now distilling the water

00:05:58.620 before i put it in um my humidifiers you heard me what do you mean distilling well buying distilled

00:06:04.920 water that's one option and some people do it how the fuck do you i'm filtering water in a

00:06:09.820 in a zero water filter what's zero it's a brand yeah it's it's um you know whatever particulate 0.53

00:06:16.640 matter whatever i told you this is i'm i'm i have to go green all products green you're in the hot

00:06:22.780 shower all the products are vaporizing urine vaporizing you're inhaling them so your toxic

00:06:27.340 products you're doing a steam bath every pore breathing it in all the toxins yeah what i learned

00:06:34.060 was the ultrasonic humidifier which sounds like the future of humidifiers right and my my humidifier

00:06:38.920 is an ultrasonic okay canopy no i think that's a wick which is good and healthy okay the ultrasonic

00:06:44.700 like truly aerosolizes 0.97

00:06:46.620 whatever the fuck is in the water. 0.99

00:06:47.960 And you have to goddamn clean it every 24 hours. 0.99

00:06:49.960 And people are out here with their humidifiers 0.99

00:06:51.600 not knowing that.

00:06:52.520 And literally the ultrasonic truly aerosolizes.

00:06:55.020 So the whole argument, you know,

00:06:56.900 that I like, whatever, read it,

00:06:58.540 it came down to.

00:06:59.800 So just buy the zero water filter.

00:07:03.200 And so I just pour.

00:07:04.480 Now I just, that's what I'm,

00:07:06.040 it's there specifically for my humidifiers.

00:07:09.880 Can you believe it?

00:07:10.900 Life is exhausting.

00:07:12.100 All right.

00:07:12.900 Shower mat.

00:07:13.860 Ooh, interesting.

00:07:14.400 that up what is it for you what is what is the lifestyle okay so interesting you bring this up

00:07:18.720 i have a question is it not uniform across all homes you have to have a mat something underneath

00:07:24.220 the kitchen sink right by the kitchen sink that you're standing on i mean i haven't had one in

00:07:28.040 my current home nor my last time okay so this is fascinating you were like kind of like almost like

00:07:33.040 like something so yesterday we did a thing in the kitchen kind of cleaning it up changing some

00:07:38.560 stuff around we had a big kind of big decorative ish rug that was like a mat for you know and my

00:07:46.500 thought is yeah water you're washing dishes water things fall you know just want it on the floor

00:07:50.820 so then we go let's get it out of here we take the floors are nice yeah we take it off

00:07:56.160 suddenly the kitchen looks bigger which is crazy because i always thought rugs amplified space or

00:08:02.120 made spaces bigger the room looks bigger we take the decorative rug yeah put it in the bathroom

00:08:07.680 Suddenly it's gorgeous and luxurious in the bathroom.

00:08:10.980 I go, how often are we washing this now?

00:08:12.460 Once a week?

00:08:13.140 Which bathroom?

00:08:14.180 You have two. 0.95

00:08:14.700 Main bathroom.

00:08:15.580 Okay, so the actual, not the powder room.

00:08:17.480 So that you're, no, you're off,

00:08:18.320 you're out of the shower and you're-

00:08:19.700 Onto that thing.

00:08:20.440 Onto that thing.

00:08:21.520 I mean, I got to see this rug to know, or this mat.

00:08:24.040 It's stressful.

00:08:24.500 Because you know what I have in my bathroom?

00:08:27.100 I was shocked.

00:08:27.900 The wood thing?

00:08:29.040 No, no. 0.99

00:08:29.880 What the fuck is the wood thing? 0.98

00:08:31.080 The bamboo, yeah, yeah. 0.99

00:08:32.500 I've seen those and I go, punishing.

00:08:33.860 I've wondered about those for years.

00:08:35.140 Seems punishing.

00:08:36.020 Out of the shower?

00:08:36.660 Well, it's, it's about, it has to do with like, yeah, and like, it's clean forever.

00:08:40.960 Yeah.

00:08:41.520 I got the, um, the slate stone, the stone thing, you know, these things. 0.98

00:08:45.500 What the fuck is that? 0.98

00:08:46.040 No. 0.99

00:08:46.600 So I forget what it's called right now, but it's like stone.

00:08:50.080 No, no, no.

00:08:50.800 Like a flat stone.

00:08:51.440 I also have one by my sink.

00:08:52.500 Okay.

00:08:52.780 It's like, I'm, it's not diacotomous earth or whatever, but it's like sort of like a

00:08:56.960 word like that or it's, or it's something like that.

00:08:58.720 But it's like, like Amazon's like filled with it.

00:09:01.200 Okay.

00:09:01.360 It's like, like it absorbs water.

00:09:03.900 The Amazon is filled with it or Amazon.com?

00:09:06.120 i mean amazon.com it's not a specialty item okay but it's it's it's this stone that that absorbs

00:09:11.800 water now because there's a lot of water okay i slop it up in the shower i'm not like you know

00:09:17.220 i'm doing all sorts of crazy shit in there and it's just you get out you stand on the stone 0.55

00:09:22.820 and then i run i mean or i run freezing to to wherever my towel is or whatever right 0.74

00:09:27.260 and then i now have my crazy towels what does that mean i told you there's a new system implemented i

00:09:32.800 got navy towels just for me and like you know my partner doesn't have to suffer wondering what the 0.93

00:09:37.820 fuck is going on like that was on the floor one second ago now it's like you're sitting on it now 0.61

00:09:42.720 it's our hand towel like what's going on I'm like those are my crazy towels they're just I just know 0.99

00:09:46.780 what I'm doing with them yeah that's for like I have a towel that's basically for like sitting on

00:09:51.080 the edge of the tub steaming I love that towel that's how it's my good friend you know I'm a 0.97

00:09:56.660 friend like time to steam don't want to put my like ass on the on the cold side of the tub I'm 0.99

00:10:01.980 still stuck on the stone that you were drying your feet 0.99

00:10:04.140 on. I can't comprehend it.

00:10:05.600 I'm about to run out and buy one of the bamboo.

00:10:07.680 I'm about to run out and buy one of the bamboo mats.

00:10:09.440 The bamboo doesn't soak it up as much as the stone.

00:10:12.720 So the stone, I also have one.

00:10:14.260 Is it warm? No.

00:10:15.720 I also have one for, beside the sink,

00:10:18.520 that's like a sink caddy.

00:10:20.020 Like, okay, for your

00:10:21.520 dishwashing stuff. Because, you know,

00:10:23.840 around the sink, water, water, water.

00:10:25.420 This is fascinating. I also think I got one, I'm trying to remember

00:10:28.100 where it is right now, for under, like,

00:10:30.040 the coffee machine. Basically, I'm like,

00:10:31.980 let's have it everywhere i've never heard of this i've never heard of this i found it

00:10:36.380 shopping research bring it up right now wait the stone i'm trying to imagine getting out

00:10:43.160 so it's a heavy piece of stone it's a 50 pounds like what are we talking stone

00:10:47.580 bath mat i'm obsessed now with sponge again i'm going we got to clean the home conventional

00:10:54.820 sponges apparently like lower your you know they'll be dead in 10 years yeah whatever no

00:10:59.500 So if you get out alive between two sponges, you're lucky.

00:11:02.400 I mean, I got these, I got, again, I always got something.

00:11:06.320 I can't just get something normal, right?

00:11:07.680 Well, I have an announcement.

00:11:08.660 I got the sponges that wear down and show you, like, this one's done.

00:11:13.180 Ooh.

00:11:13.780 It has a pattern on it, and it's like, when you get down there,

00:11:16.020 you better throw that out.

00:11:16.880 Are those Eva Mendes's or whatever?

00:11:17.780 Could be.

00:11:18.660 So this is an example of, like, the stone.

00:11:21.760 Let me see this.

00:11:22.560 This is just like a slate gray stone.

00:11:24.960 $27.16.

00:11:26.940 Strange.

00:11:27.380 ultra absorbent hygienic boosting non-slip natural earth diatomic hostess yeah i decided

00:11:36.940 not to try to pronounce that so it is that word it's interesting this is outrageous from a texas

00:11:41.080 to myself and that's not necessarily the one i recommend yeah this one's kind of ugly i don't

00:11:45.580 like that i'll text you later okay okay i'm buying it really we'll see i mean you know you're supposed

00:11:52.380 to like i forget what you're supposed to do with it but just so so here's what i'm saying though

00:11:56.100 If you are going to have an actual bath mat.

00:11:58.120 Yeah, okay.

00:11:59.060 Is it one with, like, the rubber on the bottom to keep it from sliding around?

00:12:03.040 Yes.

00:12:04.020 It is?

00:12:04.760 I don't have that, but.

00:12:05.840 Right.

00:12:06.460 I'm sorry.

00:12:07.340 I'm back to no rug underneath.

00:12:09.860 I mean.

00:12:10.180 In the kitchen.

00:12:10.820 No rug in the kitchen.

00:12:11.380 Okay, why?

00:12:12.100 To me, the mat in front of the sink is about, they have those, like, foamy ones that reduce,

00:12:19.400 like, you're standing in there and your spine is slowly compressing as you do the dishes.

00:12:23.000 No, that's not the problem.

00:12:23.740 You just have this, like, I mean, let me guess.

00:12:25.940 Does your mother have a mat?

00:12:26.800 I know.

00:12:27.200 I'm like, is that where I inherited it?

00:12:28.740 Like, there's a small, like, little rug, I think, in front of, like—

00:12:32.240 Maybe that's dirty.

00:12:33.660 What?

00:12:33.980 Is it dirty to have a mat underneath the sink?

00:12:35.660 I thought it was, like, water.

00:12:37.540 Yeah.

00:12:38.020 I think that all makes sense.

00:12:39.280 But maybe—I'm going to try—I'm going to fly free without it.

00:12:42.860 See what happens.

00:12:43.960 I mean, how big is this?

00:12:44.900 The one that we had?

00:12:45.660 Yeah.

00:12:46.040 It's pretty big.

00:12:46.860 Like a rug.

00:12:47.560 It's not a mat.

00:12:48.360 No.

00:12:49.180 No, we were repurposing it.

00:12:51.400 Right.

00:12:51.740 Okay.

00:12:52.340 Interesting.

00:12:52.660 All right, let me do—I'm doing more rapid fire.

00:12:54.760 Okay.

00:12:55.100 I love it.

00:12:55.940 v-necks no crew neck i mean the average shirt yeah belt yep always and for style or sometimes

00:13:06.200 function sometimes for style what do you keep in the console of your car if anything so actually

00:13:11.960 it's interesting you bring up the console my console is absolute chaos bursting at the seams

00:13:16.700 and i looked in there the day i go holy shit i have to take care of this because i've got in

00:13:20.500 there everything from you know sunglasses tampons masks mints that aren't good i got some weird 0.52

00:13:30.020 makeup ginger mints napkins i ate a whole package of them yesterday on the way home ginger one after

00:13:34.620 the next chewy ones no it's like a mix oddly of almost it's like ginger and a mint fabulous yeah

00:13:41.220 it was a period where they took my town by storm is there a beaver on the front of them

00:13:45.340 i don't know i think there's a lot of different brands now yeah but there's the best one it took

00:13:50.220 my town by storm

00:13:51.140 at one point.

00:13:52.260 I think they took

00:13:52.760 my town by storm

00:13:53.660 when I was like 16

00:13:55.040 or something.

00:13:55.220 Yeah, exactly.

00:13:56.140 That's when it happened.

00:13:57.020 My mom was into them too.

00:13:57.940 Everyone was.

00:13:58.200 Passing me ginger juice.

00:13:59.040 I could eat right now.

00:13:59.860 I could eat right now too.

00:14:00.380 Oh my God,

00:14:00.740 I want it right now.

00:14:01.240 I'm hungry.

00:14:02.360 Yeah, the powder

00:14:02.880 on the outside.

00:14:04.640 Oof.

00:14:05.620 That feeling.

00:14:06.640 Then they cling

00:14:07.400 to the inside

00:14:08.120 of the wrapper.

00:14:09.660 They just suck it out.

00:14:11.700 Milkshake? 0.67

00:14:12.520 Or no?

00:14:13.740 In general?

00:14:14.240 With a meal.

00:14:15.180 Well,

00:14:15.700 in the old days,

00:14:16.620 okay,

00:14:16.940 like,

00:14:17.620 I was pure on,

00:14:19.140 like,

00:14:19.400 it was like,

00:14:20.220 Yeah, to go to the diner and get burger, fries, milkshake, okay?

00:14:24.220 See, because I was just disgusted because In-N-Out is so sublime.

00:14:28.000 And when I go to In-N-Out, it's like, okay, In-N-Out.

00:14:30.980 I have a picture of you with a fry hanging out of your mouth in In-N-Out.

00:14:33.620 And I think we both have milkshakes.

00:14:35.480 Because car trip to me, California car trip, you're going to In-N-Out.

00:14:40.160 That's like the treat of the long car ride.

00:14:42.260 And so I get burger, fries.

00:14:45.740 The idea of burger, fries, and a milkshake, it's like a step too far.

00:14:48.360 It's like too insane.

00:14:49.300 like can you really after you know well you don't after you go during during it's heaven on earth 0.94

00:14:54.900 holy shit it's like you're going from the potato taste oh my god sweet okay and you know when you 0.66

00:15:00.660 have sweet it's like i always want to get rid of the sweet back to salty here you go what flavor 0.99

00:15:06.020 depends not chocolate no vanilla for me honestly i mean technically it's coffee for me

00:15:12.740 at a meal ideally i'm trying to think like back in the day what it would have been

00:15:17.700 do you miss dairy the substitutes are you know no i don't miss dairy cow milk yeah the soy that

00:15:24.600 whatever they're all you know no but i mean like a milkshake at in and out oh or a burger i just

00:15:30.500 can't live without a burger it's like i actually can't live without it i don't get them i'm not

00:15:34.520 like eating it every three days but i need to have a burger twice a month or else it gets ugly

00:15:40.680 i don't know i can't i can't quite explain that i'm just sort of riding along there's no

00:15:45.180 pronouncements but like at the moment i'm yeah enjoying not um you know yeah and like if i crave

00:15:53.780 the flavors it's like i would want it's it's kind of about you know the bun meeting with the savory

00:16:01.420 meeting with the onion with the pickle with the tomato all those things like those are kind of 0.96

00:16:04.960 kind of like doing it for me you know what i mean so it's like you could take some dumb ass patty in 0.97

00:16:09.420 there fine with that i drove by in and out on the way here thought about it all right let me give 0.95

00:16:14.140 more okay jawbone or temporalis okay by the way masseter botox because i've been having so my jaw 0.55

00:16:20.260 my tmj all of it although i have a new acupuncturist who's un-fucking-believable not the one that i

00:16:25.760 talked i'm talking about a new third new a third new interesting who's blowing them all out of the

00:16:32.120 water i gotta be honest but then i go masseter botox would that really help like with the

00:16:37.260 I asked my dentist that and he was like, he's like, my dentist was like, don't do it really.

00:16:44.140 Like, yeah, I don't know, man.

00:16:45.760 So I think there's a lot of the origin.

00:16:47.580 Yeah, I think there's a lot of jobs over time.

00:16:50.640 Oh, my God.

00:16:51.020 Last night, I think I even sent it to you.

00:16:52.940 It was like that guy.

00:16:54.360 He was like doing.

00:16:56.040 You did send it to me.

00:16:56.960 Okay.

00:16:57.140 He was like, but I think it made it seem like you had watched one of his videos.

00:17:00.920 These videos were like the chiropractor is releasing.

00:17:04.440 By the way, no neck pain.

00:17:07.780 Adjustments. 0.97

00:17:08.620 Those vessels, those arteries in your neck are so fucking gentle. 1.00

00:17:12.000 These fucking idiots are snapping your neck. 1.00

00:17:14.000 I mean, you have to be really fucking careful. 1.00

00:17:15.980 But how? 0.98

00:17:16.780 How can you find, like, how can you separate the good chiropractor from the not?

00:17:22.160 But I'm just saying careful out there.

00:17:23.640 Just be careful out there.

00:17:24.380 No, I know.

00:17:24.900 I know. 0.95

00:17:25.100 And yet I go there and I'm like, no one's fucking snapping my neck back suddenly without, I don't even know what.

00:17:33.320 I mean, the thing is, it's not the bones, it's air between the... 0.93

00:17:37.260 No, I know, but the neck arteries and the blood vessels are really fucking fragile, 0.97

00:17:40.420 and you can do some serious fucking damage if you get an improper adjustment. 0.97

00:17:44.660 And yeah, you could say I'm fear-mongering, but I absolutely am. 0.98

00:17:46.820 The promise of someone doing something, like, you know, watching a video,

00:17:50.240 and it's a huge emotional release after neck adjustment.

00:17:54.240 You're all crying, and then the guy going, you know, you're letting go of a lot of pain, whatever, okay?

00:17:58.960 It's like, I get really, like, stuck on those videos.

00:18:02.800 Yeah.

00:18:03.180 I get stuck on watching, like, I love it.

00:18:05.260 You don't do any body work? 0.99

00:18:06.480 People doing body work on you and shit? 0.97

00:18:08.340 I haven't gotten any services in like, it feels like years. 0.98

00:18:11.480 I went to Kosha once recently.

00:18:14.040 Go get some services.

00:18:15.260 I used to, in New York, go to the, like, get foot, you know, reflexology.

00:18:20.460 That was great.

00:18:20.740 I've got, like, three amazing healers you should be going to.

00:18:23.700 Like, what's going on?

00:18:24.800 I don't know.

00:18:25.280 Just getting there is a challenge.

00:18:27.080 I've got someone come to you.

00:18:28.600 Really?

00:18:29.100 Yeah, of course.

00:18:29.820 Michelle.

00:18:30.380 The massage.

00:18:32.720 She's also, like, psychic.

00:18:33.440 Does she bring a table?

00:18:34.320 Yeah, of course.

00:18:35.260 crazy where do you set up the table my living room interesting chat yeah I mean talking about 1.00

00:18:42.520 your body right I mean she's the one that said too much chocolate and that right the previous 0.91

00:18:46.220 night I had a bunch of chocolate right maybe I should do it wait she's body work or or she's 1.00

00:18:52.340 um acupuncture she's no it's not acupuncture it's like lymphatic massage right right but she's also

00:18:57.620 like tapped tuned in yeah she'll be like eight months ago what happened right right right I like

00:19:02.300 when they have a when they're practitioners of a certain thing but then that is like sort of the

00:19:07.020 means through which they tune into more like both happening well i've got two people that's a new

00:19:12.800 two but you have to go to them okay i can do it yeah once they're kabbalistic she'll look at you 0.95

00:19:19.640 and go oh it's okay she'll clear all your shit and then the other one it's such a huge question

00:19:24.320 hands on the body it's just a witness of right the very least you know i've done sessions with 0.97

00:19:29.940 like basically energy healers right do you still go to her i mean i just haven't in a while but yes

00:19:35.120 you know what i mean like mean to get an appointment on the books yeah yeah and it's

00:19:38.380 remote and whatever and i have a belief that you're kind of engaging in something with the

00:19:41.520 other person where you are consciously sort of saying remove the blockage right like you're

00:19:46.480 you're sort of an active participant just by being passive right but like someone being like be like

00:19:54.480 yeah i go in there and i took it okay i'm like how how could it be how could you take it okay

00:20:00.460 if if it's like how could the healer take it or whatever yeah or you know my favorite scam my

00:20:06.560 friend actually did the scam my friend was really really um in a romantic like entanglement thing

00:20:12.620 couldn't get over this person whatever literally went to like a street psychic no no yeah like

00:20:18.760 like a flea market psychic yeah like went into the corner and they were like did the thing and then

00:20:24.100 literally my friend

00:20:25.680 paid $500

00:20:27.140 to have the quote

00:20:28.160 curse lifted off her heart.

00:20:29.700 Right.

00:20:30.000 I was like 0.99

00:20:30.400 are you fucking kidding me? 0.99

00:20:32.920 However. 0.99

00:20:33.520 And there's the desperation

00:20:34.480 of

00:20:34.880 well she did meet someone

00:20:36.780 and now she's better than ever.

00:20:38.540 No.

00:20:39.480 Well because I mean

00:20:40.540 let's just say like Kate

00:20:41.380 you went into the woods

00:20:42.180 like you took $500

00:20:43.220 out of your account

00:20:44.000 and you went into the woods

00:20:44.860 and you burned the $500

00:20:46.180 actually you know

00:20:47.220 you went into the ocean.

00:20:48.840 No it's a fact that

00:20:49.340 no I believe in the ritual process.

00:20:51.300 I think it does something.

00:20:52.400 So by sacrificing

00:20:53.840 something actual to you money yeah it's like it's like an active sacrifice to something so it could

00:20:58.860 could be effective but god i remember like in a crystal shop in chicago overhearing there was

00:21:04.640 like energy workers in the back kind of thing and two of them are talking and one of them's like

00:21:08.700 shitting on the other or like you know shitting on the third one who's not there or whatever it's 0.91

00:21:12.760 like i mean yeah jan's great i just prefer to just go in and just get it and just pull it right out 0.99

00:21:18.460 oh my god you know like i just go in i get it it's out you know what i mean like amazing and i was

00:21:23.320 like that's cool you know it's like but it was i mean i thought it was obnoxious yeah she was

00:21:28.920 suggesting you know the other one's like bullshit you know what i mean and like it's like i just 0.99

00:21:33.200 like to go in and completely remove the disease you know what i mean versus like fuck around with 0.99

00:21:37.160 it or something but what i'm saying is that what can another person another consciousness or energy 0.54

00:21:42.000 remove from you right like energetically let's just say in theory i would say like maybe they

00:21:49.300 could spot something that isn't yours that get glommed on to you let's just say right because

00:21:54.860 that's not yours and so it's really easy for them to grab but you could also argue that for it to

00:22:00.540 have stuck to you okay something in your energy field did connect with it right and right so how

00:22:06.880 can they see something you can't see i don't know how any of it works there's a certain kind i just

00:22:11.820 took it away that i'm like did you i'm like you didn't take it like like you don't take away you

00:22:17.160 You didn't take away much.

00:22:18.100 Have you heard someone?

00:22:18.720 Has someone ever done that to you?

00:22:19.660 I've never had someone go and take this off.

00:22:20.320 No, but when you're describing the, like,

00:22:22.440 The flea market. 0.72

00:22:23.260 Kabbalist. 0.79

00:22:24.780 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:25.200 And you're going, like,

00:22:25.880 and she'll be like,

00:22:26.320 No, she's not taking it away.

00:22:28.740 She's like, oh, your chakra here

00:22:30.260 is, like, blocked or whatever. 0.90

00:22:31.680 And you're like, damn right it is. 0.97

00:22:34.120 Damn right it is. 0.97

00:22:35.540 You know, it's kind of cool. 0.92

00:22:36.220 I remember this, like, energy healing thing.

00:22:37.300 It was, like, singing, toning

00:22:38.940 over someone's chakra

00:22:41.180 to bring it into, like, balance.

00:22:43.220 It's like tuning for itself.

00:22:44.500 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:45.180 But you could do it with your voice.

00:22:46.420 Whoa.

00:22:46.700 And when you're really, when you're really up there, you can do it with pure intentionality.

00:22:49.660 It's like, I'm like, get them spinning clockwise.

00:22:53.860 Hot sauce versus, you know, so many on the shelf these days.

00:23:17.540 Yeah.

00:23:18.480 You know what?

00:23:18.840 I got gifted Victoria Beckham's son's hot sauce.

00:23:23.680 Brooklyn Beckham?

00:23:24.660 It just, you know, I was just served her son for some reason.

00:23:27.940 Yeah.

00:23:28.420 So he has a hot sauce.

00:23:29.540 Yeah.

00:23:30.380 It's good.

00:23:31.320 It's in a very, like, the bottle is a vanity topper, so to speak.

00:23:35.120 It's like a thick glass, you know, a wooden cap that has, like, a, and it's flavorful.

00:23:41.500 I'm going to be honest.

00:23:42.600 It's flavorful.

00:23:43.860 It's better be.

00:23:44.580 It's thick.

00:23:45.140 Spicy.

00:23:45.900 I saw, I walked past a hot sauce store, the farmer's market.

00:23:50.060 You know, they have one.

00:23:50.860 And one of them had Osama bin Laden on it.

00:23:53.820 You know, it's that hot.

00:23:54.940 It was like.

00:23:56.200 Hot sauce humor is by the lowest foreign expression.

00:24:00.760 Well, like, like, like wings, like hot wings.

00:24:03.840 Like, like, like, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.99

00:24:06.400 The ass buster or whatever. 1.00

00:24:08.280 Wow. 1.00

00:24:08.680 Okay.

00:24:09.160 how far will you drive for a restaurant if you know upon arrival you're not gonna have to wait

00:24:16.120 again like a crossing town just for dinner going back i mean so much of my going out to dinner

00:24:22.920 is spontaneous so a lot of times that does come into play but i'll still drive in those

00:24:29.600 circumstances if i know dinner is coming in any form i mean i relax once i get to the restaurant

00:24:36.320 you know but i'll i'll go whatever when i record the podcast hungry i'm just talking yeah yeah i'm

00:24:42.180 like hot sauce meal i'm like trying like how far will i drive what's because you're thinking about

00:24:47.920 right now i'm like i'm thinking quarter sheets i'm thinking holy basil tonight but then i'm

00:24:52.140 thinking the fact that you're thinking about like anything other than like i material for the 0.83

00:24:58.160 podcast i don't mean like like thinking about like making up funny shit you know what i mean

00:25:02.120 I mean, like, my hyperscope focus, I'm not saying to any benefit to anyone.

00:25:08.540 Like, I am, like, here.

00:25:11.300 Yeah, yeah.

00:25:11.920 Like, there's no mind wandering.

00:25:14.020 Wow.

00:25:15.160 All right, we're doing rapid fire questions.

00:25:16.940 Let's go back to it.

00:25:18.680 Iced coffee out of a mug.

00:25:19.980 How do you feel about it? 0.99

00:25:20.980 Disgusting. 0.75

00:25:22.800 Cold water stored in plastic in the fridge.

00:25:25.660 Okay, so, listen, we've been hearing now for years, right?

00:25:29.680 Constantly.

00:25:30.520 No plastic, no plastic.

00:25:32.120 And we all know that, but also plastic is everywhere.

00:25:33.980 It's really, really almost impossible to completely avoid single-use plastic.

00:25:38.180 Okay?

00:25:38.880 And then now, you know, you're hearing, oh, it was always a lie, right?

00:25:41.720 Recycling was always a lie.

00:25:43.360 The fossil fuels, they always knew you couldn't recycle plastic.

00:25:46.280 Like, the percentage of plastic that's actually recyclable, it's, like, laughable.

00:25:50.120 So it's all been theater that we've been doing.

00:25:52.640 And they knew it.

00:25:53.400 They knew it the whole time.

00:25:55.120 So, and it was all, you know, it's all so the fossil fuel companies,

00:25:59.900 they tried to put the onus on us. 0.92

00:32:39.700 It's like, you know.

00:32:40.780 Why?

00:32:41.240 Because it's like non-organic dairy and it's like filled with, you know, whatever.

00:32:44.940 Delicious?

00:32:45.780 Delicious and 20 grams of protein.

00:32:47.800 Oh, right.

00:32:48.100 You're still so bored of this narrative.

00:32:50.720 I'm like, you know, it's got a lot of protein.

00:32:52.680 Yeah.

00:32:53.460 You know what I mean?

00:32:54.660 I got liquid aminos.

00:32:59.800 Do you have to do it on Empty Summit?

00:33:01.660 I mean, if you want it to be the...

00:33:03.520 Absorb?

00:33:04.120 It's not even absorb.

00:33:05.060 It's like the whole premise of the thing

00:33:07.260 and the building blocks of what, you know,

00:33:09.000 if you read the nine articles on the guy's website...

00:33:11.760 I won't.

00:33:12.640 You better do it on an empty stomach.

00:33:14.960 Okay.

00:33:16.260 It doesn't have to be in the first thing in the morning.

00:33:17.800 Oh.

00:33:18.480 Okay, right, right, right, right, right.

00:33:20.140 I don't know.

00:33:20.800 I don't know what I'm saying.

00:33:21.840 I mean, the point is,

00:33:23.640 he made a convincing case to me

00:33:25.260 that it should be with nothing else

00:33:26.540 because it's the exact ratio of the building blocks

00:33:28.880 that then it can...

00:33:31.220 build muscle out of or something soft mattress for a mattress hardest you got oh really yeah

00:33:37.320 yeah i think so i'm actually not sure i actually need a new mattress here but but at home it was

00:33:42.600 time for a refresh at my parents home do you still have the crazy mattress it's like in the living

00:33:46.660 room no you mean crazy like because it's wacko to have it in the living room you get an extra

00:33:51.020 mattress against the wall oh yeah yeah i finally got rid of it okay i would lay that down and put

00:33:56.040 my sonomat on it and whatever the healing blanket um the healing uh the healing mattress but yeah

00:34:01.800 i gave it to someone someone who wanted it that was exciting because it was like barely sat on

00:34:07.240 yeah okay slippers love what kind ug you mean different from your yeah ug brand slipper and

00:34:14.800 are they like i got my partner an ug slipper they said these are the best slippers i've ever owned

00:34:20.360 yeah okay and then there's a separate like a knockoff ug slipper that i've been using that's

00:34:25.560 really comfortable to me does it look like an ug yeah so okay silver that i have that's a knockoff

00:34:30.540 ug is a thing where it's open in the back it's just like the toe goes in yeah but it has like

00:34:34.420 the fuzziness all around the ones that they have that are mule yeah yeah the one that they have

00:34:40.420 that's a proper ug is like there's no fluff it's like very like pulled back yeah shaved and yeah

00:34:48.000 yeah and it's um black yeah and it covers the whole foot right i mean i had these like you know

00:34:53.820 I think you were from L.L. Bean, but.

00:34:55.420 I love slippers and bathrobes.

00:34:56.820 The kind that fold over.

00:34:58.220 Yeah, so I'm in the market.

00:34:59.760 I have a parachute bathrobe that I love.

00:35:02.280 Really?

00:35:03.000 I got one for my partner, you know, a year ago.

00:35:06.080 And then I go, I want one.

00:35:07.460 And they go, I want one for me.

00:35:08.660 Mine's brown.

00:35:09.660 I love it.

00:35:10.340 And what is it, waffle?

00:35:12.000 Soft.

00:35:12.460 It's not the waffle one, actually.

00:35:13.860 It's like.

00:35:14.400 Terry?

00:35:15.000 It's not Terry.

00:35:15.820 It's whatever the other thing is.

00:35:17.280 Linen?

00:35:17.640 Jersey?

00:35:18.320 Not Jersey.

00:35:19.240 Linen.

00:35:19.620 I don't know.

00:35:20.300 Is it light and airy? 0.99

00:35:21.940 It's soft as fuck. 0.98

00:35:23.060 but light it's not waffle yeah it's light it's light it's it's light sounds linen-y 0.99

00:35:29.060 blend probably maybe it's a linen blend it's very soft what do i want in a robe

00:35:33.460 it keeps i don't want it to be too heavy well you know what i always resist but then i wonder

00:35:37.620 maybe actually it would be great like the thick fleece robe totally i think they might be great

00:35:41.820 but i feel like it's just gonna capture lint like all the time probably okay interesting okay so

00:35:47.640 slippers or robes i actually have a few designs i'm back into my i'm designing a line i'm like

00:35:53.840 everything i buy i'm just like i have a better version in my head yeah if only it existed

00:35:58.020 but i'm into that right now i have a vision for a robe because i like the whole tying and the

00:36:04.340 whole thing but sometimes you want it to be more firmly whatever and i kind of just want it to go

00:36:09.080 over i have two buttons you know what i mean yeah like i just kind of a well also totally naked

00:36:14.700 under there yeah i went out of my house with nothing on under the robe talked to the mailman 0.96

00:36:20.660 quickly yeah and i kind of thought was my vagina exposed we'll never know i really think it wasn't 0.98

00:36:26.620 yeah probably wasn't but unless you were lunging but like there's something about holding your 0.98

00:36:32.840 robe together of course i mean it's not it's not appropriate i was inappropriate well so you're

00:36:38.000 saying there was no tie no there was you're not hands-free if you're not hands-free if you're

00:36:42.120 unable to be hands-free, then it's inappropriate because it means all you have to do, he throws a

00:36:46.760 football at you. You go to catch it and you're nude. No, no, no. That's the inherent. I, I had

00:36:51.700 it tied, but I still. Yeah. Cause you're opening the door. There could be gusts of wind. Sure.

00:36:56.840 Blowing it back. I told you when the LAW, the, the water guy, water and power guy saw me completely

00:37:01.940 naked head to toe. Through a window? Yeah. Why did he look? He was very relaxed about it. He did a

00:37:08.760 good job trying to not embarrass me i think it's pretending he didn't did you make eye contact

00:37:12.060 basically i mean he's got to know how to not make eye contact i know what do you do when your mail

00:37:18.340 arrives oh yours yours arrives in a mailbox right because mine actually slipped through the door

00:37:22.380 my i used to have a thing so it's a shoot that came into there it goes which on the floor yeah

00:37:27.360 first of all mine had a catch it's kind of crazy so catches exist fully my house my old house was

00:37:34.340 from the 20s right it's old so it had actually in the door there were two things there was an

00:37:38.700 old thing for the milkman like the olden days we put milk there and you fill it up unbelievable 0.62

00:37:42.760 it's fucking imaginable and then there was a thing there was a mail chute where you open it 0.72

00:37:47.220 and it goes through a slot but it's all caught yeah yes i was thinking of installing one of those 0.91

00:37:53.280 yeah or i was like building ones yeah yeah i mean it's like so i'm leaning down to pick up

00:37:58.720 god my new yorkers my new yorkers you have a new yorker subscription they're killing they come

00:38:04.600 every other day it's constant i'll say this they're coming fast and they're coming hard

00:38:08.140 they come they come you know what i think a lot of people would would would like because there's

00:38:13.980 something about here's what i think is a big part of okay i think there are people who would pay

00:38:19.000 to get nothing but the cover delivered yeah because i experience i glance down at my floor

00:38:24.900 and i see the cover of the new yorker and i see what art yeah and it's like a comment often on

00:38:30.540 the current society remains top shelf journalism and then and then i see it and i was like some

00:38:36.460 people would pay for just this cover but yeah i'm like you know the stack of new yorkers

00:38:41.440 um so right now i've got an inbox by my door with a huge label on it says in

00:38:47.380 and and there's a few waiting for me in there i actually recently had my little my little bag and

00:38:52.820 i was going to go to to a coffee shop and i put i had a rolled up new yorker yeah and i go that's

00:38:58.580 satisfying you don't have the commitment of a book yeah having to take just a thin new yorker

00:39:04.320 that's gonna be filled I mean there's an idea of um being in your robe Sunday

00:39:11.320 putting on music and reading the magazine with no um yeah with no interruptions flying onto it

00:39:22.280 sounds so nice I'll never I think as long as I live I'll never get into crosswords

00:39:27.620 right I think it's a focus issue I it's not that I look down on them it's that I can't

00:39:33.680 it doesn't satisfy like I know I'm jealous that it satisfies people like oh what is it what what

00:39:40.800 could the word be I'm like it's true yeah I think it's um just don't yeah sometimes I'm annoyed

00:39:47.100 like like I just like like my answer too much for it not to be right and yeah yeah I'm just like

00:39:53.220 it should be this like totally is it compelling if it were this although it's i think it's it

00:39:59.640 builds on itself where it's like for people where that by the way you're inside of a you're inside

00:40:06.800 of a they're like four down language in as much like in as much right also because yeah but see

00:40:18.880 Those, those, like, the kind of, like, classics.

00:40:22.240 Yeah, not trivia, but just actual.

00:40:24.280 They're kind of, like, used to those.

00:40:26.520 Like, they know there's a language.

00:40:28.480 It's like, that's what's kind of interesting about it.

00:40:29.700 There's a language to it all.

00:40:31.420 Right?

00:40:31.720 Like, if you're not familiar with crosswords, like, you're just like, what?

00:40:34.880 And the person who is understands that it's like.

00:40:37.480 It's a culture.

00:40:38.360 Yeah.

00:40:38.700 There's a lot.

00:40:39.460 It's all one big in joke.

00:40:52.700 Well, I always enjoy like, you know, a study that was like crosswords aren't doing shit for you. 0.57

00:40:56.400 Because it's like that. It's sort of like, you know, you're doing if you do the same thing every day and you're good at it.

00:41:02.080 It's like, OK, you're not challenging the brain, blah, blah, blah.

00:41:04.900 You know what I mean? But taking a shot at crosswords? No.

00:41:07.300 But like, I think there's a feeling of like, yeah, I do it every Sunday.

00:41:11.340 You know, like there's just something. Sounds great. I'm jealous.
