Hello, welcome to We Never Learn.
00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:10.480
This is Julie and this is Deepa.

And we're back for another week.
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:15.599
Um, anything exciting going on this week, Deepa?
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:18.160
For me, absolutely nothing.
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:19.920
Nothing really.
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.559
I mean, we're just getting ready for the holidays.
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:24.719
Thanksgiving, yeah, Christmas.
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:26.480
Um, that's about it.
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:30.719
Just doing driving kids around and being a glorified Uber.
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:31.679
That's about it.
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:33.600
But I know you've got some exciting news.
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:43.759

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:52.320
You know, I've had this story in this book and word documents and such, and to have it actually in a book, I'm like, wow, it you know, I wrote a book.
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:53.759
It looked really great.
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:54.159
Yeah.
00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:54.799
I'm excited.
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:55.520
Thank you so much.
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:56.560
I'm excited.
00:00:56.799 --> 00:01:00.640
So um it should be out by the time this goes out.
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:04.480
So it's on Amazon and it's called The City of Infinite Life by J.

So, you know, check it out if you want.
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:15.840
Um what one thing that we saw this week um in the news, well, you know, it was recently in the news.
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:20.239
I don't remember exactly when, but it was all about well, it was m more of a social media.
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:21.200
Yeah, yeah.
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:27.680
And it just, you know, but see, I don't do social media much, so my trends only if it makes it to the news to an art.
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:28.560
Yeah.
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:35.359
So yeah, apparently um the side part and the skinny jeans ages people, right?
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.359
It may it it's a signal that you're old.
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:40.000
Well, so say the youths of America.
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.959
I I do not agree with them.
00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:47.760
I will always be a side part and skinny jeans, always and forever.
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:48.319
Right.
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:55.120
But uh apparently these youths the youths, youths, what movie is that from?
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:56.480
The uh My Cousin Vinny.
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:57.519
My cousin Vinny, yeah.
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:04.560
These youths think that um side uh side parts and skinny jeans are now antiquated.
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:04.879
Yeah.
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:10.719
And that uh straight bootcut jeans, mom jeans really, yeah.
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:13.840
You know, because even there aren't they doing like the higher waisting too?
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.159
Mom jeans and s uh middle parts.
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:16.560
Yeah.
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:20.719
And I I my whole life has been avoiding mom jeans.
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:21.199
Right.
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:25.520
So that we aren't called moms wearing those jeans.
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:26.719
And now that's cool.
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:28.319
I don't understand this concept.
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:29.280
Yeah, I don't either.
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:36.639
But you know, my whole life the side part, you know, and I I've tried the middle part and it just it I don't know.
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:40.240
I have curly hair too, so it this middle part just looks funny.
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:40.719
Yeah.
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:47.520
And you know, yeah, of course that's the thing that comes back can't be the big poofy hair, because I can do that.
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:48.800
Like from the 80s.
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.800
Yeah, I could do the 80s with my curly hair, but I cannot do a middle part.
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.280
See, I I was happy with the uh side part.
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:04.719
I could never do the big 80s hair because my hair just it won't hold curl, it is straight forever, no matter what I do.
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:10.319
But um that's why I love the side part, you know, it was so easy.
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:16.240
And uh the skinny jeans for my body type was is so flattering.
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:27.120
Whereas uh the straight jeans don't really, you know, flatter my I I'm 5'1 and doesn't give me any illusion of height, right?
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:44.960
You know, it doesn't give me any illusion of slimness at all because I'm 5'1 and curvy and I'm never going back to uh straight jeans, and I'm glad that on social media women in their 30s and 40s are fighting back right, me too.
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:54.479
Because I mean when I was in my early 20s, I wore the straight bootleg, you know, straight, but I was real skinny and it was good, it was fine.
00:03:54.719 --> 00:04:11.840
But now that I'm older, whenever I wear that with along with a kind of a baggier shirt, because I, you know, to hide the you know, any of the cur the any of the unwanted curves through there through the midsection, when I wear a straight leg jean, I just look really baggy and messy and from it makes you look like a box.
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:12.479
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:17.040
But the skinny jeans can go well with a plu uh billowy shirt.
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:18.399
And it yeah, yeah.
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:19.600
I'm sorry, I'm not changing that.
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:20.240
Me either.
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:26.800
And I I you know, we uh decided to because somebody it was uh Gloriana Restrepo, I guess.
00:04:26.879 -->

00:04:29.279
She's some TikTok influencer, I guess.
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:30.079
I don't know her.
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:30.959
I don't know anything.
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:32.319
Uh I don't like her.
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:36.480
No, I know.
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:40.720
I'm sure she's well known for all the I'm sure she is, but she's not to us.
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:43.279
No, and I guess she was like, prove me wrong.
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.560
I don't think there's a single person that looks better with a side part.
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.600
That that looks better with a side part than they do a middle part.
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:53.920
Well, you know, we decided to go ahead and take a picture and we're gonna prove you wrong.
00:04:54.319 --> 00:05:01.439
We're gonna prove her wrong, and we're gonna put post it up and you guys can vote on see which one, the side part or the middle part.
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:01.920
Yeah.
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:12.319
And we're gonna wit, we're gonna we'll talk about the next time the poll and what we actually think because we don't want to influence it at all or anything, but so I but still I love my side part.
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:16.160
Speaking of like looks and stuff, you know what happened to me this week?
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:16.800
What?
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:19.839
So I went, you I that sounds very ominous.
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.319
Well, I mean it kind of it's not really that bad.
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:33.600
Um, but I was at my daughter's school and I don't usually go to the school and pick her up, you know, wait with the other moms because she's older now and she wants some independence.
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:35.920
So she rides halfway and I meet her, you know.
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:40.959
So I don't go over there very much, but I happen to because uh she was walking home.
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:46.240
And so um I went over there and I'm seeing a mom I haven't seen since before the pandemic.
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:47.839
So it's been about a year and a half.
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:48.399
Okay.
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:54.879
And she's you know, I walked up and was like, hi, and she's like, Wow, you look different.
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:55.680
What?
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.680
Yeah, and that's all like that's all she said was you look different.
00:05:59.920 --> 00:06:03.040
And I mean, like, not not like your hair.
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:08.240
I I don't know what she was talking about, but w the subtext was the pandemic did you wrong.
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:10.800
Give me a name.
00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:12.160
Give me a name.
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:17.360
Oh dare she know, and I really we sat there like quietly for a second.
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:22.319
Like I didn't know how to respond, and she didn't follow up with anything.
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:30.240
Like, you know, like I what do you what I I really didn't know what I was just then we just kind of like I was like,
yeah, I'm wearing my hair curly now.
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:31.439
I didn't know what to say, you know.
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:32.399
What do you say to that?
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:33.040
You know?
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:34.560
I gain weight or something?
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:35.279
I don't know, you know.
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:37.519
I mean, I don't know.
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:48.160
In fact, you look younger, yeah, because you're more breasted, because the pandemic has given you a chance to rest for a year and a half versus running around.
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.319
So maybe that's what she meant.
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:51.600
You look useful.
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.399
I could not believe, like, how do you respond to something like that?
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:55.920
Like I don't know, punch her in the face.
00:06:57.920 --> 00:06:58.639
Oh, really?
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:00.160
Now you look different.
00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:03.839
How dare she?
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:05.360
Oh God.
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:08.160
I'm angry.
00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:17.040
It was it was a little like, you know, and it's still apparently bothering me, just you know, because like it almost was like a it was like an insult, you know.
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:18.639
And like I I just couldn't imagine saying that.
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:24.879
Well, usually when people says something, say something like that, it's not in the positive, at least not in their brain.
00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:25.199
Right.
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.600
It's you know, they're like, What?
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:32.639
Yeah, and I I have done that where I've ran into someone and they look different, but you keep it to yourself.
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:33.040
Yeah.
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:34.720
Unless I have something nice to say.
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:34.959
Yeah.
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.199
I'm not gonna say you were raised right.
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:40.959
If you don't have something nice to say, you don't say anything at all.
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:43.759
Apparently, this woman missed the boat on that.
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:44.800
Guess so.
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:46.399
Normally she's pretty nice.
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.759
I don't really I must have looked rough.
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:51.680
Maybe the pandemic changed her.
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:57.680
All I know is you look exactly the same as you did two years ago.
00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.600
Yeah, I don't know what, yeah.
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.839
Other than I was wearing my hair straight.
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:03.199
Was it a middle part?
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:04.639
No, it was not.
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.240
It was so not a middle part.
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:08.240
Because that could have been the difference.
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.879
All right, so today we wanted to talk about something kind of interesting.
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:15.839
It's different.
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:16.720
It's different.
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:23.279
Um well, you know, it's not very different for me because I was raised uh very familiar with this concept.
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.839
But we were we've been talking about it a lot lately.
00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:32.000
Yeah, and um it's something that I've always been interested in since I was a kid, and it's reincarnation.
00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:33.679
Reincarnation and soulmates.
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:44.639
Yeah, and um the concept of soulmates, when you're talking about reincarnation and stuff, it's not necessarily what uh like a romantic partner.
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:48.480
It's it's people you move through different lives and not just one soulmate.
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:49.519
Right, John, just one.
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:56.000
And this is um this definition of soulmates I first encountered in Brian Weiss, Dr.
00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.080
Brian Weiss, actually's book called Many Lives, Many Masters.
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:05.679
The true story of a prominent psychiatrist, his young patient, and the past life therapy that changed both their lives.
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:06.720
It's a very long title.
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:08.240
Yes, that really is.
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:15.360
But you know, it it the one thing to remember, um he's an actual medical doctor.
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:16.000
Oh, yeah.
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:19.840
I mean, he went to Yale and Columbia and graduated with all of them.
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:31.840
He says in the beginning of the book that he was very skeptical, and he was someone who has never been open to this concept of soulmates and reincarnation until this patient named Catherine came into his office.
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:34.559
And you had read the book a long time ago.
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:35.679
Over a decade ago.
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:41.039
Yeah, and I was g toying with the recar reincarnation as far as a story idea for my next book.
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.360
And you told me about this book, and so I read it, and I was like, wow, this was so interesting.
00:09:45.519 --> 00:10:06.399
And it really is the way she came in with like phobias, she was scared, deathly scared of water, and she had she just had all these issues, and as they started doing the past life regression, which is through hypnosis hypnosis, she was remembering like being drowned and all this stuff, and as she remembered it, it was like she was able to release it.
00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:09.360
And like, no, that's why I was the anxiety, right?
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:12.559
That's yeah, and she improved just from learning about that.
00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:14.720
So it's I it's an interesting concept.
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:16.879
I've read several books on the topic.
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:25.759
I can't remember all of them, but the main point that I took away from it that I liked was that you know, we've we've been grew up with the soulmate.
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:30.480
Oh, you have one
soulmate and you have to meet them, otherwise, you know, what's the meaning of your life, right?
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:31.039
Right, right.
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:45.919
But these uh psychiatrists have been putting out there that soulmates are really just a group of souls that travel from one life to another and they all they have to learn from each other and teach each other right, and sometimes they owe debts to each other and stuff like that, yeah.
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:53.120
Life lessons, and you keep moving through and you keep encountering the same souls until you learn that lesson that you're supposed to learn from each other.
00:10:53.279 --> 00:11:04.559
Right, and that's something that this Catherine woman, um, she like her dad, and I I know people in her life, she when she was remembering the past life, she's like, This is my dad now.
00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:06.799
Like the same soul that, you know, right.
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:07.840
I thought that was interesting.
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:09.440
It is a very interesting concept.
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:10.159
Yeah, yeah.
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:20.080
And um I think you know, it makes it makes you wonder like the people around you, like, are they, you know, have you been in previous lives with them?
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:24.159
If that you know, I'm not saying that reincarnation is for sure a thing.
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.480
I just think it's an interesting concept and there seems to be something to it.
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:34.960
Well, there's a reason sometimes where you feel like you meet someone, a total stranger, and you just click.
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:35.919
And you just click, right?
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:41.279
Because you and I clicked very easily, you know, out of all the moms that were at that first dinner.
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:41.679
Yeah.
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.279
I mean, we just clicked, yeah, you know.
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:44.399
2007.
00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:45.679
Yeah, 2017.
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:49.279
And it was just an instant like friendship.
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:49.840
Right.
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:58.799
But then I was remember I was talking to you about it, and it's like, let's say that we are, you know, some we we have been in lives together in the past and stuff.
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:06.000
Like how I mean, I came from like Texas, then I went to Minnesota, uh, Connecticut, like there were so many moving around.
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:09.120
It's not like we lived in the same, you know, neighborhood for us to meet.
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:21.759
It would have had to really be kind of uh structured out life, and that's what this book also talked about was that you plan out your life and the the basic broad strokes of what you want it to happen.
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:26.480
Yeah, it it that's true because we've had you and I can't be any more different, right?
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:40.480
Different uh races, different upbringing, different states, right, you know, and and yet we end up in the same state, same city, same situation.
00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:48.799
And the same could be said even for my husband, because I met him working in Connecticut when I was living in Minnesota, after living growing up in Texas.
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:49.679
Right.
00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:55.360
But yeah, and um, yeah, so anyway, it was it's a very interesting concept.
00:12:55.600 --> 00:13:10.240
And you know, there it's the thing that's interesting about it too is that the things basically the things that you did the the con the ideas are um the things that you did in the past are the things that you become in the past lives.
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:21.759
So like if you were uh racist toward a certain group, then in the pre in the next life, you may be come back as a member of that group religious group or whatever.
00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:23.440
Um to learn your lesson.
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:34.879
Yeah, to learn your lesson or the things that you do, like if you were, you know, I don't know, mean to kids or something, you could have had you come back and you have a bad childhood, you know.
00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:37.840
Or I don't know, like those are just some of the things that they have talked about.
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:52.159
And if you seem to like a lot of the phobias, the especially the stranger ones, like you know, death panic attacks of water or around sharp knives or something, you know, that that is linked to usually a violent death in a previous life.
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:57.919
I've always told you that my son from a very young age has always, always been so scared of fire.
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.279
Uh un unreasonable fear of fire.
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:02.399
Full on panic.
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:03.759
Full on panic of fire.
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:04.720
And it makes me wonder.
00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:15.200
He is getting better with it as he gets older, but when he was young, like two, three years old, oh my god, it he would he would be like running around the house screeching and in a panic.
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:15.440
Yeah.
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:15.919
Anytime.
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:18.240
I mean, just even lighting a candle, he would be scared.
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:18.399
Yeah.
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:19.200
So yeah.
00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:20.080
Yeah.
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:32.720
So um so I I, you know, I'm I I've always thought about reincarnation and had a, you know, thought that it was probably existed.
00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:36.960
Um, but I'm not like 100% sure, but I've always thought it.
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:40.720
And I remember when I was little, I really wanted to come back as a cat.
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:46.639
I did not see that coming.
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:49.120
I did.
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:50.480
I just Why a cat?
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:54.399
I don't well, they seem to be pretty chill and they sleep and relax a lot.
00:14:54.559
--> 00:14:56.240
And you they also the claws.
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:10.399
I uh you know, I was like really when I was like in my like ten, I would skate around my driveway and pretend to be a leader of a gang that were people slash cats, and we could bring out our claws and like fight other games.
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:12.159
And I didn't even know about Wolverine.
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:14.159
I never read the cat musical, yeah.
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:23.679
I'd be like skating around, roller skating into this side, and then I would like bring out my claws and be like, yeah, uh, you know, you're scared.
00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:24.320
Oh god.
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:29.840
And so I just thought, oh, that was so cool, and it would be cool to come back as a cat.
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:31.759
Well, there's always the next life.
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:41.039
But then, you know, they the whole soulmate also leads into, well, are soulmates psychically linked?
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:41.919
Right, yes.
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:45.120
Can we read each other's mind or know what we're feeling?
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:49.200
And a lot of it could be said, well, maybe because you just know each other so well.
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:49.600
Yeah.
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:54.320
That's why you can say sense what the other is feeling or wanting or whatever.
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:56.080
And I came across this article.
00:15:56.320 --> 00:16:02.639
It relates just specifically to us because of course they're soulmates, you know, romantic soulmates and siblings and parents and whatnot.
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:08.799
But um, this article from Lifestyle, five signs you and your best friend might just be each other's soulmates.
00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:15.120
Now I'll read the five real quick, but a lot of these are well, maybe because I've just known you for 15 years.
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:19.759
Yeah, you know, like you know how the other person is feeling without exchanging words.
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:20.799
Yeah, right?
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:25.840
Or you can somebody could say something and I know exactly what you're thinking about what they said.
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:29.360
I know, and then we'll go off to the side and be like, Did you hear what she said?
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.039
You can talk for hours, never been a problem for her.
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:35.919
We talk nonstop, hence the podcast.
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.960
You understand one another, yeah.
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:41.440
Your sense of humor is the same, yeah.
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.279
But see, that's something our sense of humor was the same from the very beginning.
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:46.080
From the very beginning.
00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:49.200
Like when we would text little jokes, it was the same type of joke.
00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:53.279
Not nothing I'd ever joked with other people about, you know, like is this the same?
00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:55.759
So maybe yeah, and you feel
your best friend's pain.
00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:56.240
Yeah.
00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:04.559
So I mean, all of these can be, yeah, maybe because we are soulmates from another life, or maybe we just have known each other so well for 15 years.
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:05.440
Which one is it?
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:05.839
I don't know.
00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:14.640
If we're since we're like close now, do you think we were like enemies, sworn enemies in a previous life, and we had to come back and learn how to be friends?
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:16.160
Interesting.
00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:18.400
So we're now kind of frenemies.
00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:29.680
Maybe that'll be how it is when uh we're like our souls or whatever that is out there that you know goes from life to life, maybe they will be frenemies.
00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:31.440
Because we're obviously friends.
00:17:31.519 --> 00:17:31.759
Yeah.
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:34.480
We were enemies before, and now they're somewhere in between.
00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:35.119
Yeah.
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:37.680
Stay tuned for the next slide.
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:47.279
Whoever like is in charge, the spiritual God, whatever is in charge of these souls, they were like, You two are gonna get stuck together and you're gonna have to be best friends.
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:51.839
Well, according to Brian Weiss and other books, we're in charge.
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:55.759
We choose I know that's the thing, is like it's what we're going to experience.
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:56.319
Yeah.
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:10.559
And and they say that I think in his book he talked about that you agree if somebody owes you a debt, whatever that is, you know, that they'll you will play certain roles to satisfy that debt.
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:14.880
And then after the life is over, you like come together somehow.
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:23.680
Seems like there's more it's more um consciousness, you know, like coming together and decide whether the debt was paid.
00:18:24.079 --> 00:18:28.079
Well, maybe one day we'll do a past life regression and explore that a little bit more.
00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:28.559
Yeah.
00:18:28.799 --> 00:18:33.359
But for now, we're going to explore if we are psychically linked or not.
00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:35.279
So you want to explain our experiment?
00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:41.119
So we got these cards that are very much like the um ones that Bill Murray used in Ghostbusters.
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:47.200
They have like different pictures on there, like wavy lines and all that, you know.
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.880
So we're going to go through and look at the car.
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:55.359
I'm gonna like when it's your turn to guess, uh, or read my mind.
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:55.839
Okay.
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:57.839
Um, I'm gonna be looking at it.
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:02.960
I'm gonna be thinking really hard about the picture, and you're going to see if you and then we'll we'll switch it.
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:09.039
And I know that my psychic abilities are at peak today because I am exhausted.
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:16.400
Uh, because my son had a nightmare last night, so I've been up since three, and I am pretty sure exhaustion heightens psychic ability.
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:17.680
Yeah, so I'm ready.
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.519
Because it reduces like your your your the the active mind, right?
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:24.079
Right and puts you more in like base instincts.
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:25.039
Yeah, so we're gonna go with that.
00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:26.559
Basic instincts.
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:29.359
Sharon Stone.
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:32.400
So I'm ready.
00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:32.880
Okay.
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:35.920
I got these cards off Amazon.
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:36.559
Very nice.
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:37.519
Psychic library.
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:38.400
Okay, so I'm gonna guess.
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:39.759
I think that, yeah.
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:41.839
All right, so well, I saw that one.
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:43.440
Well, okay, well, let me shuffle.
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:45.039
Okay, because it was a circle.
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:46.559
You're so good.
00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:47.279
I know.
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:50.720
I told you, I am on top of my game today.
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.039
All right, sleep deprivation.
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:53.920
Okay.
00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:56.640
All right, I can't see now.
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.920
I am just going to I'm gonna stack it so you cannot see.
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:02.720
Okay, so wavy lines.
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:03.200
No way.
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:04.079
Are you kidding me?
00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:06.160
No, I am serious.
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:07.759
Oh my god, I swear to God, I didn't know.
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:10.480
I was sitting here thinking like wavy lines, wavy lines.
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:11.920
I swear to God, I did not see that.
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:13.519
I don't think I'm gonna be this good.
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:15.200
Because I feel like I always second guess.
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:16.319
Think hard again.
00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:16.799
Okay.
00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:17.279
Okay.
00:20:19.119 --> 00:20:19.920
Square.
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:21.279
No, plus sign.
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:22.160
I was close.
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:22.400
Yes.
00:20:22.640 --> 00:20:25.519
If you draw the line, there would be a square.
00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:27.759
Star.
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:28.799
No.
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:29.599
Circle.
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:31.920
Oh, wait, do you need to even know like what all the new areas are?
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:33.359
No, I don't know what the options are.
00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:34.240
Would that help?
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:35.279
I don't know.
00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:37.839
There's there is a star and there is a square.
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:39.200
So I think you're and plus sign.
00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:40.160
Oh, plus sign.
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:40.640
Okay, yeah.
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:40.880
All right.
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:41.680
Shuffle them again.
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:42.160
All right.
00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:44.000
So I am one for three.
00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:49.920
You may just me that we know each other well.
00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:52.480
All right.
00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:54.240
All right, all right, all right.
00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:54.799
Here we go.
00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:55.359
Okay.
00:20:57.680 --> 00:20:59.039
Trying to get into your wavelength here.
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:00.000
You thinking hard?
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:00.480
Mm-hmm.
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:01.920
It's a square.
00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:02.240
Yes.
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:03.359
Oh my god.
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:08.640
I did not see that.
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:10.799
Okay.
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:12.720
Alright, I'm thinking hard.
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:15.759
Circle.
00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:16.960
Wavy lines.
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:19.839
There are a lot of repeats.
00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:22.640
You close the wavy line in a circle.
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:24.640
They wave into a circle.
00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:26.079
Alright, alright.
00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:30.880
Star.
00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:32.079
Circle.
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:36.319
See, you were looking, you were thinking of the next one, and that's what I was thinking of.
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:37.759
Alright.
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:38.880
Alright, here we go.
00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:39.599
Yes.
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:43.599
Wavy lines.
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:44.640
Plus sign.
00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:45.920
Oh my god.
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:47.039
I was thinking plus sign.
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:53.440
See, that's the thing that I think is that I'm gonna think something, and you really gotta go with that first good instinct.
00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:54.240
Because I was thinking.
00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:57.039
Like it hasn't popped up.
00:21:57.119 --> 00:21:58.000
I damn it.
00:21:58.240 --> 00:21:58.400
Okay.
00:21:58.559 --> 00:21:58.720
Alright.
00:21:58.960 --> 00:21:59.759
Wait, what did I just do?
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:00.720
That's fine.
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:01.279
All right.
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:14.079
Alright.
00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:15.519
Alright, so your turn now.
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:15.759
Yeah.
00:22:16.240 --> 00:22:17.440
I'm gonna shuffle them really good.
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:20.559
Alright, so we're not we didn't keep score, but you got two.
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:23.200
Maybe ten.
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:23.599
I don't know.
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:24.400
Yeah, something like that.
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:25.759
I got two.
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:29.119
Alright, so uh hone your psychic abilities while I shuffle here.
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:30.880
Go with reversed instinct.
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:33.119
And get on my wavelength.
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:33.519
Alright.
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:35.599
Think what would Deepa think?
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:38.880
Think Deepa.
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:41.920
See through Deepa's eyes.
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:44.160
I'm ready here to go.
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:46.640
Square.
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:48.160
Cross.
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:49.920
Close.
00:22:50.160 --> 00:22:50.640
Yes.
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:51.759
Alright.
00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:55.839
Sorry.
00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:58.079
See, I feel like I have nothing.
00:22:58.319 --> 00:22:59.359
I'm not hearing anything.
00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:01.759
Wave your mind.
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:02.480
Wait a minute.
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:02.799
Okay.
00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:03.039
All right.
00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:03.680
Quiet your mind.
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:03.920
All right.
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:05.920
I don't quiet my mind.
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:07.039
Well, I have a squirrel mind.
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:11.599
It is a deep breath.
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:12.400
Okay.
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:12.720
All right.
00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:13.039
Go.
00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:14.160
Circle.
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:14.960
Square.
00:23:16.319 --> 00:23:16.559
Cross.
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:19.039
You weren't even sure.
00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:23.680
Okay.
00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:26.319
See, and now I'm thinking, what hasn't shown up?
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:27.759
Could it be a repeat?
00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:28.880
You know, like I can't.
00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:30.480
See, that's what I was thinking too.
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:32.000
I was like, what hasn't shown up for a while?
00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:33.279
No, that's too random.
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:36.640
Okay, I'm gonna like look away from you and like around.
00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:38.160
See, that's us using logic.
00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:39.359
We're not using like it.
00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:40.480
So you've got to be psyched.
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:42.880
How does it tap into that?
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:44.720
All right, think soulmates.
00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:56.240
Did you see that?
00:23:57.440 --> 00:23:58.079
I didn't see it.
00:23:59.200 --> 00:23:59.359
Okay.
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:00.079
Don't be lying.
00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:02.400
I wasn't looking in your eyes that time.
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:05.519
I kind of looked away and just like it.
00:24:05.599 --> 00:24:05.680
Yeah.
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:06.960
So maybe that's what I'll do.
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:08.000
I'll learn this way.
00:24:08.240 --> 00:24:08.400
Okay.
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:10.160
You look at the card and like think of the card.
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:12.559
All right, okay.
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:31.200
Last one.
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:31.440
Okay.
00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:31.920
Okay.
00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:36.240
Circle.
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:37.599
No waving lines again.
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:38.559
Wavy lines again.
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:39.920
Yeah.
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:41.519
I
think lots of people might have taken over there.
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:42.160
It did.
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:43.119
I was thinking, uh.
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:44.319
But we each got two.
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:44.880
Yes, we did.
00:24:44.960 --> 00:24:45.839
That's not bad.
00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:46.559
Not bad.
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:47.279
Not bad.
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:47.759
You know?
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:52.640
And it's it really is hard not to think about like what has shown up.
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:55.759
And then I was thinking, is there a triangle?
00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:56.640
For some reason.
00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:58.240
Was there a triangle?
00:24:58.319 --> 00:24:58.400
No.
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:01.920
No, I don't think there is, but it a triangle kept popping in my head.
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:04.960
And that's me just trying to think of the different one.
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:05.359
Yeah.
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:06.480
It just okay.
00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:08.160
So Well, that was fun.
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:09.119
Yeah, it was.
00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:10.880
I don't know what it proved.
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:15.519
It proved I don't know.
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:16.319
Yeah, yeah.
00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:20.319
I don't know either, but well, you know what we should do for another episode?
00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:22.880
Here's a good we should go and see a psychic.
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:23.519
And see.
00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:24.079
Yeah.
00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:25.359
I want to go see a psychic.
00:25:25.599 --> 00:25:26.559
Like let's get a reading.
00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:29.519
Yeah, like I want to go to a, you know, legit.
00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:31.359
I don't know really how to tell what's legit.
00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:32.319
I don't either.
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:35.680
But I went to one at a state fair, which I don't think.
00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:37.359
I don't think that's legit.
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:39.680
If you if you have a tent, you're not legit.
00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:40.160
Yeah.
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:44.079
It was like this little, I don't know, this little, yeah, like a little room.
00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:45.839
She had like, come on, cubicles.
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:46.480
Yeah.
00:25:46.799 --> 00:25:51.920
And um we sat down in there and my husband, we weren't married yet.
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:54.720
And we had been together six months.
00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:59.839
And she I th I was annoyed with him before we went in.
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:02.640
And so she's telling me, you're not gonna end up with him.
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:04.319
Whoever that guy is out there.
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:09.200
He's not the one you're gonna be with a guy with that's older guy.
00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:10.559
My husband's younger.
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:16.559
Older guy, but then she describes he wears glasses and gonna have a beard, which my husband does now.
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:17.839
He has a beard now.
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:18.960
I don't know.
00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:22.640
Anyway, and she's like, Yeah, you're you know, you're not gonna end up with him.
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:25.759
So she's just not trusting she's just reading body lines.
00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:28.079
She was reading what was going on.
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:28.720
Yeah, you know.
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:34.319
All right, so stay tuned for maybe a future episode of us doing a psychic reading.
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:40.559
It's kind of scary because I remember my uh co-worker years and years ago.
00:26:40.880 --> 00:26:45.279
Her she went to a psychic and her mother had died when she was younger.
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:46.799
And the psychic she didn't bring that up.
00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:51.279
Oh, she didn't bring up it was they that we we lived in Texas and Dallas.
00:26:51.359 --> 00:26:56.559
They used to drive to Shreveport, I think, Louisiana, to see this certain psychic because she was so good.
00:26:56.720 --> 00:26:56.880
Okay.
00:26:57.279 --> 00:27:00.720
And I was gonna go, and then something came up and I couldn't go with it.
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:01.039
Okay.
00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:14.240
So anyway, but she said that she hadn't brought up her mom, didn't even want to ask about her mom, how she died and stuff, because um, but sh she knew she died from being shot, or she knew the gun was involved, but she didn't want to know.
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:15.279
It was when she was younger.
00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:26.079
But her the psychic said she saw her mom looking in the mirror as a guy behind her held the gun up to her head and yeah, and she was like, It is creepy.
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:36.240
And so then she started asking about it, and yes, she was shot by uh yeah, by uh huh uh I don't think he was a husband, but somebody that was freaky, yeah.
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:38.799
So yeah, I'd bet I I'm up for doing that.
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:43.759
We just gotta find out like we'll do some research and comment on Yelp that's highly rated.
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:45.359
I don't know, like where do you go?
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:50.400
I don't know how to plug into the psychic network, you know, to see.
00:27:50.720 --> 00:27:52.319
I don't know, but we'll find out.
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:55.519
That'll be a fun process to begin with.
00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:56.400
Yeah, exactly.
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:57.440
Just find it out.
00:27:57.680 --> 00:28:02.160
And then we gotta go in with like stone faced stone faced.
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:03.759
Don't give anything away.
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:05.759
They can, you know, like that show psych.
00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:11.200
You know, he would he would pick little things about like how what you're wearing and stuff.
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:13.599
Like we go in there pretending we don't like each other.
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:15.279
Yeah, like I barely know her.
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:17.599
Yeah, I don't know who she is, just
someone off the road.
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:19.200
But we want to come in for a reading together.
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:21.279
We'll probably do something though that we'll I'm sure.
00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:22.400
Like I'll hand you something.
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:26.480
Just something we'll like, yeah, or we'll do something that they're like, they're real close.
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:30.480
They know what they're psychically linked a little.
00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:33.039
Two out of ten percent.
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:36.000
Twenty percent.
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:36.960
Two out of ten.
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:44.240
All right, it is time for our media moment.
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:45.039
Here we go.
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:51.519
All right, what all have you been reading or have read some of this stuff I think we read over the past year, we just didn't get to last time.
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:52.240
Yeah.
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:58.880
Well, uh okay, so I'll start off with uh S Circe, Circe by Madeline Miller.
00:28:59.200 --> 00:28:59.519
Okay.
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:03.519
Uh it was uh based on Greek gods and goddesses.
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:18.160
Um banished sh Cersei was banished by Zeus, who was her father, to an island, and um, you know, whatever her life was, all these people that came, like Odysseus and all the uh to the island and stuff, and it was so highly rated.
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:24.880
Everyone raved about it on social media and everything, and all the lists I saw, you know, would be one of the top five or top ten.
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:26.960
I read it and I was like, eh.
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:27.920
Yeah.
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:30.319
You know, people were like, it moved them to tears.
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.200
I didn't it moved me to a little bit of boredom.
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:33.759
Aww.
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:38.880
Yeah, I mean, it was okay of a story, but it just what didn't live up to the hype.
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:41.519
No, so much hype, and I was just so let down.
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:44.160
Maybe there's aspects of it that really appealed to people.
00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:44.720
I don't know.
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:53.519
Maybe if they haven't read any Greek, yeah, uh, but you know, my freshman year of high school was all Greek gods and goddesses and mythology, and so I was so inundated by it.
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:53.839
Yeah.
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:55.440
So maybe I was a little jaded.
00:29:55.519 --> 00:29:55.920
I don't know.
00:29:56.079 --> 00:29:56.319
Yeah.
00:29:56.480 --> 00:29:56.720
Okay.
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:57.440
That's unfortunate.
00:29:57.759 --> 00:30:03.119
But then um I read a fantasy, I guess it's a fantasy slash sci-fi.
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:03.680
I don't know.
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:07.039
There's aspects of both from uh from Nalini Singh.
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:09.359
Uh it was the Psy Changeling series.
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:18.480
The book was called Slave to Sensation, and that book kind of started me on the fantasy genre because I've never read a fantasy, uh, a book from the fantasy genre before.
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:20.240
And I liked this book, it was good.
00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:30.160
I didn't like the pre the second and third ones in the series, and but then I went from that to Blood and Ash series by Jennifer L.
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:31.440
Armitrout.
00:30:32.079 --> 00:30:32.559
I don't know.
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:33.920
It was okay, it was good.
00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:36.240
The first and first, second book were really good.
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:49.519
The third book kind of went boring, and then I got really mad at the end of the third book because I thought it was a trilogy, and for sure the story was gonna end, and it was left at a cliffhanger, and I did my research, and there's three more books coming out.
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:52.319
I was like, forget this, and they haven't even pu been published.
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:53.119
I was like, I get it.
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:55.279
Oh, so you would have to wait years and years.
00:30:55.359 --> 00:30:56.400
I was like, oh, I'm done.
00:30:56.559 --> 00:31:02.640
Yeah, that's why I when it comes to those series, I'd rather wait till they're all available because I have no patience.
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:04.480
Right, and well, that's what I started doing.
00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:09.519
Any other fantasy series book I picked up, I made sure it was complete before I started reading it.
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:09.920
Yeah.
00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:16.799
Then I know both of us read the next three books uh Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, which was fantastic.
00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:17.359
That's good.
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:17.759
Oh my gosh.
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:19.519
By Taylor Jenkins Reed.
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:21.359
Yeah, that was an awesome book.
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:22.559
I read it in two days.
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:23.920
Yeah, I could not put it down.
00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:26.400
And it was such a great ending.
00:31:27.119 --> 00:31:33.599
Um the book just moved so quickly, and the story was so engaging.
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:34.079
Yeah, it was.
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:35.680
I really recommend that book.
00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:39.279
And then we read The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner.
00:31:40.079 --> 00:31:40.319
That was good.
00:31:40.400 --> 00:31:41.519
Yeah, I liked that a lot, yeah.
00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:43.200
It moved and it was an interesting.
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:47.039
Yeah, and it was um the dual timeline.
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:47.440
Yeah.
00:31:47.680 --> 00:31:52.799
Where it was in more in the past, there's an apothecary, and then there's a person in the f uh that's investigating.
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:53.920
Modern time, yeah.
00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:55.039
That was good.
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:58.319
But then we read The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.
00:31:58.400 --> 00:31:58.480
E.
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:00.720
Schwab, which was also very much hyped.
00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:01.200
Yeah.
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.119
As one of the life-changing type of books.
00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:06.960
I read it and I did not find that.
00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:13.519
I thought it was entertaining, and I read it, um, I mean, and I enjoyed reading it, but I didn't think it was life-changing.
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:25.759
And I felt like it it was about uh a woman who is cursed to live forever, but whenever she encounters somebody, they forget her as soon as she's not in front of their face.
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:26.640
They forget who she is.
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:31.279
So she lives all these through centuries not really being known by anybody.
00:32:31.599 --> 00:32:31.759
Right.
00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:34.880
And there is aspects to it that I thought were so great.
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:48.640
I think the part that I didn't really like is that they some of the romance, like especially the one in the film, modern times, it just seemed to like go so quick and it seemed to really explore it.
00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:52.480
Yeah, it just seemed like maybe she liked him because he could remember her.
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:53.440
And maybe that's part of it.
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:58.559
You know, maybe that's what she just settled, but then there was also the demon.
00:32:58.720 --> 00:32:59.440
Was he a demon?
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:04.160
The one who cursed her, the one who cursed her because she asked for it at the crossroads, right?
00:33:04.319 --> 00:33:04.880
Or something like that.
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:12.160
She asked because she didn't want to have to marry someone, so she won he he led her out of that marriage by making everyone forget her.
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:12.559
Right.
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:22.799
After they lose move sight and the thing that uh I thought they dropped the ball, not they, this author dropped the ball on was she lived through centuries.
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:25.359
Uh, but they didn't explore any of that.
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:34.880
They would just touch on a little bit, like I love a historical novel, and they didn't touch on what it was like for her to live in that certain t uh time period.
00:33:35.119 --> 00:33:35.359
Right.
00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:39.359
They did a really good job to show how she got out of her town.
00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:39.759
Right.
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:45.119
And had her her first like settling and trying to figure out how to live like that, but then it didn't do much.
00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:46.960
She would just like, oh, I was in a war.
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:47.359
Right.
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:51.759
You know, like it was like, oh man, those were the details that I really would have enjoyed more of.
00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:52.960
So I was disappointed.
00:33:53.279 --> 00:33:55.279
I thought the idea was fabulous.
00:33:55.680 --> 00:33:59.440
And I thought there were some
aspects that were really well done, and then just some I wanted more.
00:33:59.599 --> 00:33:59.839
Yeah.
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:00.960
I agree.
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:05.359
You know, and I really didn't care about her, you know, with this guy.
00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:06.240
No.
00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:09.360
I was more interested in her and the demon because they had a thing going on.
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:12.239
And that they o they touched on briefly.
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:19.199
It was like summary, and you know, it was like hard to really you know get excited about any of the love interest parts of it.
00:34:19.440 --> 00:34:21.519
But overall it was it was it was an okay book.
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:23.840
It's not not anything I would be like, don't read it.
00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:33.360
I mean, read it, but it's just you know, be prepared that so it's not like the best romance aspect of it, or you're not gonna get tons of history.
00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:33.920
No.
00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:36.960
But and then what are we watching?
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:39.039
I don't know, I'm not watching a lot.
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:39.679
Yeah.
00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:48.639
Because every time the kids are up, not kids, my daughter's up, she's in the tenth grade, like her son, and she's up, really like doing homework.
00:34:49.199 --> 00:34:53.280
Um, so by the time my husband and I sit down, we're exhausted.
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:56.719
So we either just put on we've been watching a lot of friends on repeat.
00:34:57.039 --> 00:35:02.880
Like, you know, like we're going through the series again, and it's we only get into about two episodes before I start falling asleep on the couch.
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:10.480
So we don't really start any movies or anything like that, but we are trying to watch Dune this weekend.
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:11.440
Oh, we watched it.
00:35:11.599 --> 00:35:12.000
Was it good?
00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:12.960
Yeah, it was good.
00:35:13.119 --> 00:35:16.159
I mean, it's um it's beautiful.
00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:16.639
Okay.
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:20.559
Like the cinematography and all that, but is a little slow.
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:21.039
Okay.
00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:24.239
My son loved it, but he read the book, and so he was all excited.
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:27.119
He actually didn't hate the 1984 version.
00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:27.760
Okay.
00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:31.840
He he thought that it could have been improved upon, but he didn't like think it was the worst ever.
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:35.360
Your your middle son and my son game a lot.
00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:38.880
They they're they're fast, they're really good friends, and they game a lot and stuff.
00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:43.599
And he told my son that they watched Dune over the weekend.
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:48.159
And so And your son gifted my son the Dune character on Fortnite.
00:35:48.480 --> 00:35:48.960
Did he?
00:35:49.519 --> 00:35:50.639
I I don't doubt it.
00:35:50.960 --> 00:35:53.519
But he's all excited about watching it.
00:35:53.599 --> 00:35:59.519
But now that you tell me that it's slow, I'm sure he's gonna lose interest within the first 30 minutes and be like, Can I go play?
00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:04.559
Well, you know, and and my middle son he shifted a lot.
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:09.119
He never said he thought it was super slow, but he kept wiggling around.
00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:11.519
And I kept falling asleep in two parts of the stuff.
00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:12.960
Yeah, so this does not bode well.
00:36:13.119 --> 00:36:15.599
No, but isn't it's it's overall it's not a bad story.
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:16.960
I just feel like it was really long.
00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:18.639
And it is just the first part.
00:36:18.719 --> 00:36:20.400
So then it picks up.
00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:23.280
Well, yeah, it's no, well, I mean it they're gonna do another movie.
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:32.239
Oh, four What is it with these with these ongoing series that never finish?
00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:33.280
I don't know.
00:36:33.519 --> 00:36:35.199
I just need some closure in my life.
00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:37.360
Well, there are in the book there were three parts.
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:42.159
Okay, but they're only doing two movies, so it's not gonna be as l spread out as it could be.
00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:55.920
And but I mean I thought that it was it was there was a lot of good to it, but there's just some parts where I was like and I was trying not to do it, but I just my eyes could not stay open.
00:36:56.400 --> 00:36:58.960
But um it was it was not it was not bad.
00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:03.679
And we've been because when we're recording this, it's not far from Halloween.
00:37:03.840 --> 00:37:05.840
Um, so we've been watching a lot of Halloween movies.
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:06.559
Halloween movies.
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:11.760
We did watch some Halloween movies, but like kitty ones, you know, because my son is scared to death about everything.
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:13.920
So we watch like hocus pocus.
00:37:14.079 --> 00:37:15.760
Right, yeah, stuff like that.
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:32.960
Well, I did watch Friday the 13th with my older son because he was doing a hot volunteer event where he had to he was in the scare zone, so he'd scare these little kids, and so he picked Jason and he's like, Well, I can't go do this get into character without watching the movie, so we watched it with him.
00:37:33.360 --> 00:37:41.760
He stayed in character because my uh both of our oldest ones volunteered together at this event, and my daughter said she went and visited him at his station when they had a break.
00:37:41.920 --> 00:37:49.280
And she said he came up behind her and scared her, and she's like, in a good way, like it was fine, but she's like, I could not get him to break character.
00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:52.000
Yeah, he just he would he wouldn't smile, he wouldn't speak.
00:37:52.159 --> 00:37:52.960
He embraced Jason.
00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:54.320
Yeah, he embraced Jason.
00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:56.559
He channeled Jason very well.
00:37:56.800 --> 00:37:58.079
It's kind of scary.
00:37:58.639 --> 00:38:02.159
And he said that it when the kids he I said, Did you scare any kids?
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:05.199
And he said, Yeah, he was like walking beside the cars.
00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:05.760
Uh-huh.
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:15.599
And he didn't bring his machete, you know, his little plastic machete that came with the costume because they said no weapons.
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:16.079
I swear.
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:19.199
You know, people say this stuff and then everybody does.
00:38:19.679 --> 00:38:20.800
And that he could have brought it.
00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:22.960
And that would have completed the look, you know.
00:38:23.280 --> 00:38:24.639
Our kids are very much rule followers.
00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:25.599
Well, I am too.
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:25.840
Yeah.
00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:28.559
So am I, and that's that's where it comes from.
00:38:28.800 --> 00:38:35.519
So well, my kids and I are excited to see season two of Lock and Key on Netflix.
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:36.800
Did you ever watch season one?
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:37.599
I don't think so.
00:38:37.760 --> 00:38:40.960
It was really good, and it's something that um all your kids can watch.
00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:42.480
I think it's PG 13.
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:44.400
Both of both my kids and I watch it.
00:38:44.639 --> 00:38:46.400
My husband lost interest, but it was really good.
00:38:46.480 --> 00:38:53.199
It was about this family that moves into a haunted house and the previous um owners, it's family.
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:53.519
Okay.
00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:55.760
The previous owners were family as well.
00:38:56.000 --> 00:39:00.400
Uh have hidden all these keys all over the house, and each key does something supernatural.
00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:01.280
Oh, wow.
00:39:01.440 --> 00:39:03.119
Um, and so the second season's out.
00:39:03.280 --> 00:39:09.440
So my husband's gonna be traveling to the UK in mid-November, so we're gonna binge on that.
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:12.320
We're looking forward to binging on that when he's traveling.
00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:12.960
Nice.
00:39:13.119 --> 00:39:14.880
Yeah, but that's all that we've been watching.
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:20.800
We've like you, we don't watch much during the week because of the all the different kids and homework and all that.
00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:22.159
Sheer exhaustion.
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:22.639
Yeah.
00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:26.480
But on the weekends, we've been watching SNL because I I love comedy stuff.
00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:30.239
We need to catch up on that because I know you've told us that the last couple episodes were hilarious.
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:32.400
Yeah, it's been really good this season.
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:35.840
Um, they Kim Kardashian was better than I thought.
00:39:35.920 --> 00:39:37.119
It was hilarious.
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:39.039
And then Jason's Rammy Malik.
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:40.159
Oh, Rammy Malik, right.
00:39:40.480 --> 00:39:40.719
So good.
00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:42.800
I mean, yeah, and Jason Sudeika's.
00:39:43.039 --> 00:39:43.440
He was good too.
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:45.199
But my favorite so far has been Rami Malik.
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:45.840
Rami Malik.
00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:52.400
They did a whole Squid Game parody song, you know, by having to join the Squid Game and all that.
00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:53.599
I haven't watched that yet.
00:39:53.840 --> 00:39:54.880
I haven't watched it either.
00:39:55.039 --> 00:39:58.320
Um, my older son's like, please, everybody's watching it.
00:39:58.559 --> 00:40:01.679
My son said that, and he's 11, and he's like, My friends are watching.
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:03.280
I was like, it's TV mature.
00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:08.480
Yeah, and I my this my 15-year-old's asked me, and I'm like, I said, Well, why don't you watch it with us?
00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:11.599
Because then it's like let me know what it's like because I don't know.
00:40:11.840 --> 00:40:13.440
Why is there a mature rating on it?
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:14.000
I don't know.
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:25.760
I looked on the thing and it's like a lot of killing uh big doll that kills, I guess, and like toy like childhood games they play end up in people getting killed if they get eliminated.
00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:26.960
I don't know if I want to watch this.
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:27.599
I don't know.
00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:33.119
Like, yeah, I mean it sounds like it's pretty intense and like psychological.
00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:34.320
That's what I've also heard.
00:40:34.480 --> 00:40:39.119
Like, I don't know how these definitely won't let my middle schooler younger.
00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:42.559
Okay, well, see, that was my gut instinct is not let him watch it.
00:40:42.800 --> 00:40:45.280
And but all his other middle school friends are watching it.
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:48.719
I know, but they these are the same people that are watching Game of Thrones.
00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:50.320
Oh, that's and I don't want my kids watching.
00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:51.280
Yeah, I agree.
00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:52.159
I have not yet.
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:54.800
I haven't even let my daughter, who's 15, watch Game of Thrones.
00:40:55.119 --> 00:41:01.760
No, I that's this the the sex and the gore gore are so gratuitous.
00:41:02.480 --> 00:41:03.840
Yeah, they don't hold back.
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:04.800
They don't.
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:06.880
But yeah, so SNL has been.
00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:09.119
We really need a catch-up on that.
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:09.360
Yeah.
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:29.840
I don't know who's what other hosts are coming, but I see I'd like the writers that are and the new people that are on it, the guy who plays Biden's funny,
and um they don't know, they just do some really funny the for the last episode since it was or maybe they'll do it on I know we're coming up to Halloween while we're recording this.
00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:32.079
So on the Saturday before Halloween, the David S.
00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:33.280
Pumpkin sketch.
00:41:33.519 --> 00:41:37.840
I don't know because I thought they were saying last week that that was their Halloween episode.
00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:39.360
Like they're repeating it?
00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:43.519
But I no, like that that they're not gonna be doing one this coming week.
00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:44.079
Oh.
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:45.440
So I but I don't know.
00:41:45.519 --> 00:41:46.960
They didn't do anything Halloween.
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:47.519
They didn't?
00:41:47.760 --> 00:41:48.000
No.
00:41:48.400 --> 00:41:49.119
No David S.
00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:49.599
Pumpkins.
00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:53.119
We love that sketch and we watch it, we watch it every Halloween.
00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:54.880
I know, we love it too.
00:41:55.280 --> 00:41:57.119
What what does he say on there?
00:41:57.679 --> 00:42:00.159
Uh I'm David S.
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:00.719
Pumpkins.
00:42:01.039 --> 00:42:02.559
But he says something, doesn't he?
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:04.559
At the part of it.
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:05.119
Yes.
00:42:05.360 --> 00:42:06.079
Well that's funny.
00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:11.199
They're like, why is it what why is his uh what why are you guys dancing or whatever?
00:42:11.280 --> 00:42:13.039
And the guy's like, it was the part of it.
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:13.840
It's part of it.
00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:14.960
But he does any questions.
00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:15.519
Any questions?
00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:16.480
I'm like, what?
00:42:16.559 --> 00:42:19.599
I'm sitting here like any questions.
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:26.960
And really when we first watched that sketch, we were like, what did we just watch?
00:42:27.360 --> 00:42:28.079
It is hilarious.
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:30.000
But it grows on here the morning, you know.
00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:31.199
The first time we're like, what?
00:42:31.440 --> 00:42:32.159
I don't get it.
00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:36.000
And a lot of people dress up as him as for Halloween with the pumpkin jacket.
00:42:36.239 --> 00:42:37.840
Pumpkin jacket suit, yeah.
00:42:38.239 --> 00:42:39.280
It's hilarious.
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:40.559
All right, anyway.
00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:45.679
Um we will be back next month, um, which will be December, isn't it?
00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:46.960
Yeah, it'll be close to the Halloween.
00:42:47.119 --> 00:42:47.840
Christmas, yeah.
00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:52.639
So maybe we'll have our uh Christmas gift wrapping uh competition up by then.
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:53.679
