00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.399
I knew so much.
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.080
I was there in the dot com boom.
00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:09.279
I was the one handling it for my public relations firm.
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:09.919
I loved it.
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:11.439
Microsoft was a client.
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:13.119
I was really into it.
00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:14.560
I knew everything.
00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:17.920
And now I cannot do Google Docs.
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:24.640
Hello everyone.
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:27.120
Welcome to Dismissed Podcast.
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:28.000
I'm Jenny.
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:28.960
And I'm Amy.
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:31.519
We're happy that you came back to talk to us.
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:39.679
Today we are going to talk about something that I used to pride myself on, which is being an early adopter of technology.
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.640
I knew so much.
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.399
I was there in the dot-com boom.
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:49.600
I was the one handling it for my public relations firm.
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:50.320
Right.
00:00:51.039 --> 00:01:03.840
I was helping on the PR side launch companies like DirecTV, Direct to Broadcast, Satellite TV, multi-channel HBO, like all of that was new.
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:05.120
I was, I loved it.
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:06.640
Microsoft was a client.
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:08.319
I was really into it.
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:09.760
I knew everything.
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:12.959
And now I cannot do Google Docs.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:20.560
I am so bad at it, as Amy knows, because she'll have to send back a document and say, Can you give me the authority?
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:21.040
Permission.
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:22.239
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.120
And then I stare at it just so you know what happens on my end.
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.079
First of all, I'm like, I can't believe I still don't know how to do this.
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:34.239
And then I say, and I stare and I stare and I stare at the document.
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.159
And then I just go, allow anybody who gets the wing every time.
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:38.480
Yeah.
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:40.319
And why isn't it just like that anyway?
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:40.719
Right.
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:41.760
Why isn't it set like that?
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:42.159
Yeah, right.
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:48.000
I just feel a little on the loser end of technology right now.
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.439
And I do not like the feeling.
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:51.439
No, I feel like it's overwhelming.
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:52.400
It is overwhelming.
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.480
The technology is overwhelming because it's always changing and there's always something new.
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:01.760
And I feel like we, like our generation, we've had to adapt so much first up.
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.920
I mean, in my so in my job, I was um was a teacher.
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.479
So literally we didn't have that at the beginning.
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:13.919
We I just had my handy dandy grade book that I would write my grades in, would handwrite report cards.
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:16.000
We didn't use technology at all.
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:16.560
Yep.
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:17.599
So it's different.
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:28.159
I've seen it like go from like later on, you know, a few years in when we could send our like report cards to a program and they would print it out.
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.680
So they would give a printed out report card to someone.
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:32.960
And now it's all online.
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:34.159
Like everything is online.
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:34.400
Right.
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:35.520
So it's completely different.
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:36.479
It's crazy.
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:41.199
And like the how the kids in college communicate with their professors, just ongoing.
00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:41.520
Yes.
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.759
Like you used to have to that's why they had office hours.
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:44.080
Yes.
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:44.879
You used to have to go visit.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:46.560
There was a reason back in the day.
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.719
Or they can zoom if they want to zoom.
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:50.560
Like that to me floors me too.
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:52.800
Like the whole idea of that.
00:02:53.039 --> 00:03:02.719
That that actually that is I have sometimes I have a hard time with Zoom, which is funny because usually if somebody sends you a Zoom link, you just click on it, right?
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.960
And it will open, it will launch the meeting or whatever.
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:11.919
I don't know what happens, but like sometimes I think I'm clicking on it right, and then it'll be like enter meeting code.
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:21.759
And then I have to go back, yeah, enter a meeting code, and then sometimes you can't find, and then it'll be like, your Zoom is not up to date, it's not updated or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah it is.
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:22.000
Yeah.
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:22.719
And I'm like, uh.
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:24.240
Well, how does it make you feel?
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:25.680
Like, I feel like horrible.
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:26.879
Okay, you it makes you feel bad.
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:32.319
Well, it's so frustrating, but I'm also the kind of person that I have to get to the bottom of it and I have to figure out what is wrong.
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:44.479
So I will spend, and I think that's why I I do know Google Docs, like, because for my work now, but I had to like really figure it out on my own.
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:51.680
So I would spend literally, I would spend hours like trying to figure out how to like undo something or how to do this.
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:52.479
Okay, this isn't working.
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:53.360
Let me figure it out.
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.360
And it will take me a long time.
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:55.919
Okay.
00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.439
And so that's why I remember when Josh, our amazing producer, um, was like, oh yeah, can you get into the backside of YouTube?
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.319
I'm like, Yeah, I'll figure it out because I will get into the backside of it and I'll figure out like what it is.
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:12.000
But I mean, I'm not that I'm good at it, it's just that I'll fit it's like problem solving.
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:12.479
Yes.
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.280
But it does make you feel kind of ridiculous.
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:15.680
Yes.
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:22.800
And I I appreciate that because there are things that I just go into like Chat GPT, open AI, when they first came out.
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.319
I was like into all the different AI.
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:37.839
I actually put together um what this podcast would look like with the balloon wall when I went showed you when I pitched you the idea of the podcast through chat chat GPT when they started having visuals.
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.720
And like I love using that.
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:46.319
I love now messing with pictures that we just took in family photos and like you make them into cartoons or you make whatever.
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:46.959
So fun.
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:47.680
It's really fun.
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:48.959
It takes up a lot of memory.
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:49.360
Yeah.
00:04:49.600 --> 00:05:03.040
But um, I I don't like feeling dumb and um like even posting some of this stuff for podcasting, it's like, oh, I have to learn how to do this too.
00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:05.759
And there's always these layers.
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:06.959
There's all these layers.
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:07.839
I don't like it.
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:11.519
And I get it, but I also don't have the time to learn five million different things.
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:15.920
We've already learned the fax machine just came out when I had my first internship.
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:16.879
Yes, that was a big deal.
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:17.839
That was a miracle.
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:18.959
That was a big deal.
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:19.519
Yes.
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:25.519
And and like I said, I've lived through so many of these techno, you have to through my job.
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:27.120
I was really cutting edge.
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:28.639
And then I went and got a master's in film.
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:33.439
So I knew all the latest editing systems and I know how to do sound and lighting.
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:37.759
And and now it's like, oh, just put your phone on a thing.
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.959
I don't even have to know how to work a fancy camera anymore.
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.000
Um, I wonder if I'd be able to do it now.
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:44.800
I don't know.
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:48.639
But I don't like the feeling and I don't like when people look at me with pity.
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:51.839
I speaking, you brought up producer Josh He.
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:52.480
Yes.
00:05:52.720 --> 00:06:00.720
I after we like did a few podcasts and I was trying to move files to edit them in Final Cut Pro, and he was like, drag and drop Jenny.
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.680
And I was like trying to do it over and over.
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.240
And for some reason, I know how to drag and drop, of course.
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:07.839
Okay, but it wasn't working.
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.160
And now drag and dropping wasn't working.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.120
No, no, just Josh, it wasn't working.
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:14.560
It wasn't our fault.
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:15.839
It wasn't my fault.
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.160
But then I I get the pity.
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.759
I was on a call with him yesterday and he was like, Oh, Jenny.
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.800
No, no, no, don't do that to me.
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:25.600
Don't do that to me.
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:29.600
No, because I do know what I'm doing, except for Google Docs.
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:44.800
Well, and I like I I was saying that my I was trying to figure out on Instagram Reels how to add music, like audio to it, and I figured it out, but then I couldn't figure out how to like get it to go throughout the whole video.
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:46.639
It was only in a certain chunk of the video.
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.639
So and I was messing with it, I was deleting, I was adding, I was doing all this stuff.
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.399
So I asked my daughter and I was like, can you just show me like what to do?
00:06:54.560 --> 00:07:03.759
And she was like, Yeah, and she like put her, I put my phone in her hand, she put her finger on the audio, moved the audio around with her finger, and I was like, What?
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:05.519
And that was it, and that was it.
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.240
And she figured out how to make it, and she's like, This arrow, and da-da-da.
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:12.639
And I was like, wait, I was like, first of all, I know I touched my phone a million times.
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:14.480
Like, why isn't it not working for me?
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:16.399
Right, like it's like dragging and dropping.
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:18.399
Yes, yes, maybe it's just that motion.
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.839
And I will say, I do have a hard time um typing on an iPhone because it's really hard.
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.319
Like, there was nothing better than typing on a Blackberry.
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.000
Yeah, I didn't I skipped Blackberry Palm Pilot to phone.
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:37.199
Okay, I had a Blackberry and it was white, and I loved it because the keys were like up high and you felt like you could type on a agreed.
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.120
And people looked really cool with Blackberries.
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:39.680
100%.
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.120
I felt that way with my palm pilot.
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:41.519
Oh, yeah.
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:43.920
And you are not a TikToker, right?
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:48.000
Oh no, okay, that's another thing that puts me over the edge, is TikTok because I don't understand it.
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:56.000
I don't understand it in general, the platform in general, like how it works, like what comes on your page and all that stuff.
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:01.600
And I also I don't under to me the it's one and the same as Instagram reels.
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.800
Like Instagram reels are videos, tick tocks are videos.
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.519
I think it's the same.
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:06.000
Okay.
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:09.279
I'm gonna say that TikTok is like an A plus.
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:09.920
Okay.
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:13.759
That's and then uh Instagram Reels is a C.
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:14.560
Okay.
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:22.959
Like TikTokers get sent reels, and they're like, yeah, I saw that a month ago on TikTok.
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:23.279
Okay.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:24.800
Reels came second.
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:25.279
Okay.
00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:29.439
TikTok, I think, has more trends and reels follows.
00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:31.360
I think TikTok has so many trends.
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:31.600
Yeah.
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.080
So and I love like I'm a big TikToker.
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:35.600
I get my news through TikTok.
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:41.759
I learn Taylor Swift dances to, you know, in her music videos, there are dance teachers on there.
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:41.919
Yeah.
00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:43.360
Just all by my lonesome.
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:43.759
Yep.
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.759
And like I just do everything.
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:49.360
Actually, that's where I heard about Chat GPT for the first time was TikTok.
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.480
Yeah, there's a woman, I think her name's Allie Miller.
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:52.960
Okay.
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:54.720
And she was in that world.
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:56.000
And she started talking about it.
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.600
And then I started researching because I was thinking, I'm I was like her.
00:08:59.759 --> 00:09:00.720
I was in the tech world.
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:02.639
Yeah, you're like, I get it, I get it.
00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:04.879
And it motivated me to get busy.
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:07.360
And so I did learn a few things that way.
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:08.399
I still follow her.
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:11.759
She's much more advanced now and can do much, you know, obviously much more.
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:11.919
Right.
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:12.240
Right.
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.159
But um, so I love TikTok.
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:14.960
That's like my world.
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:18.159
I can sit instead of watching TV and watch TikTok.
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:18.559
Okay.
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.320
I follow creators.
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:23.039
I've watched several of them blow up.
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:23.679
They love it.
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.399
Husband TikTok, a Chicago area dad.
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:27.360
He's blowing up.
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:30.799
I've watched him since he was doing these cute little song videos.
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:31.360
Got it.
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:32.639
Like I love it.
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:33.600
I feel it one.
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.000
It's like taking over celebrity gossip for me almost.
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:37.440
Oh, yeah, I could see that.
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:41.120
They're like, I I and I do feel like I know them, not in a weird way.
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.240
Like we talked about reality TV a couple episodes ago.
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:44.639
Yeah.
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.279
I don't feel weird about it, but you do feel a closeness.
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.120
Yeah, you feel like connected with reality.
00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.559
I feel that way with TikTokers.
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:56.080
I'm not a scroller, so I don't have I don't have a an attention span to do that.
00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:03.120
Like my I remember when I first signed, so I signed up for TikTok because you have to have an account in order to see everything.
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.480
So people send me stuff, so I have to be able to see it.
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:11.919
So but I remember my friend being like, Oh, you're gonna love it, you're just gonna sit, you're just gonna scroll.
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.360
And I was like, I don't scroll.
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:15.039
Like I don't not on reels?
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:16.240
No.
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:19.759
I mean, I'll look at some, but then I'm like, okay, I'm good.
00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:22.559
If I see a funny one that cracks me up, I'll send it.
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:24.240
You know that I'll send you hilarious ones.
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:24.639
Yes.
00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:29.840
But um, other than that, I'm not like a scroller, but I feel like I mean my friends are and they swear by it.
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:30.320
They love it.
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.559
There are times I'll be like, oh, I'm gonna watch a show, and then I start TikToking, and two hours later.
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:38.639
Yeah, that's and I've been more entertained than an hour-long show.
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:39.519
So I'm good.
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:40.080
Yeah.
00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:46.080
Okay, well, thank you for making me feel a little better about something, and I'll work on my Google Docs so we can work better.
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:47.919
Or maybe I'll it can become your friend.
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:48.320
Google.
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:51.440
I honestly don't think it'll become my friend, but thank you so much.
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:56.559
Um, I would I would officially go into that being my PMO, but right I we already talked about it.
00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:59.519
So why don't you tell me a PMO, something that pissed you off?
00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:03.600
Well, I have a PMO, um, and it kind of goes along with technology.
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.919
It's when you email or text someone and they don't respond.
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:09.039
Yeah, rude.
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:10.639
So I I agreed.
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:16.879
So here's the here's my rationale is first of all, I respond to people.
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:21.919
Now I may not be like respond to you the minute you text me, but eventually I will respond.
00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.720
And I don't mean eventually by like five days down the road.
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:32.559
I mean like if I can't get to you right now, like I know right now, like my mom and my sister are probably texting me like questions.
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:34.000
They they do it all through the day.
00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:40.399
And if I'm busy or something, I'll usually shoot a text to them, be like, so sorry, I'm busy right now, but I will get to it.
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:46.720
And I will get to it like later in the day, or I'll heart something and be like, we'll catch up soon, or something like that.
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:52.559
Um, it's not that I need that, I need you to respond at some point.
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:53.600
Do not leave me.
00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:58.639
If I ask you a question and you don't answer the question ever, yeah, I can't, I don't like that.
00:11:58.799 --> 00:11:59.519
It's just rude.
00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:04.080
Or if you respond like six or seven days later and say, Oh, I just saw your text.
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.159
I'm like, nah, girl, you didn't just see my text.
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:11.440
Because we all have phones, we all have iPads or our computers or whatever we have.
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.320
You have seen what I texted you, right?
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:15.840
You're just choosing not to respond.
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:16.559
Agreed.
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.799
And that's just rude and have some manners.
00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:25.200
And I do think sometimes you need maybe you need to take a sna a a second to respond.
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.039
Like maybe you need to wait a day or whatever.
00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.879
That's one hot, I totally get that.
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:34.399
I'm talking about the I text in the week later, somebody's like, I well, sorry, I'm just getting to this.
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:36.480
I'm like, no, you're not getting to this at all.
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.600
And we all have a computer in our hand, basically.
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:40.639
Our phone is a computer.
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:41.360
We all have it.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.600
Yeah.
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:42.639
So don't be rude.
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:43.759
No, don't be rude.
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:44.080
Right.
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:44.720
Don't be weird.
00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:45.440
PMO'd.
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:46.080
Don't be a rude.
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:47.039
Oh my gosh.
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:51.120
So that came from um a woman I was friends with for a while.
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:51.519
Yeah.
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:53.120
She said it to her mom.
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:57.360
They were sort of having a transition where her mom started to come and visit her with her daughter.
00:12:57.519 --> 00:12:57.759
Okay.
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.639
And she would say to her mom, you know, grab, just take whatever you want.
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:01.200
Don't be weird.
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:01.840
Don't be weird.
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.279
And our entire family started it and it I started saying it after her.
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:05.759
I love it.
00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.200
I have to tell you, it's good.
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:07.679
It's good.
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:08.399
Don't be weird.
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:09.120
Don't be weird.
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:10.240
It encompasses so many weeks.
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:10.720
Don't be weird.
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:11.440
Don't be weird.
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:11.679
Yeah.
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:11.919
Okay.
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:12.480
Amazing.
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:12.799
All right.
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:13.440
I love it.
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:15.759

You're dismissed.
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.399
I knew so much.
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.080
I was there in the dot com boom.
00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:09.279
I was the one handling it for my public relations firm.
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:09.919
I loved it.
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:11.439
Microsoft was a client.
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:13.119
I was really into it.
00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:14.560
I knew everything.
00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:17.920
And now I cannot do Google Docs.
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:24.640
Hello everyone.
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:27.120
Welcome to Dismissed Podcast.
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:28.000
I'm Jenny.
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:28.960
And I'm Amy.
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:31.519
We're happy that you came back to talk to us.
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:39.679
Today we are going to talk about something that I used to pride myself on, which is being an early adopter of technology.
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.640
I knew so much.
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.399
I was there in the dot-com boom.
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:49.600
I was the one handling it for my public relations firm.
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:50.320
Right.
00:00:51.039 --> 00:01:03.840
I was helping on the PR side launch companies like DirecTV, Direct to Broadcast, Satellite TV, multi-channel HBO, like all of that was new.
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:05.120
I was, I loved it.
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:06.640
Microsoft was a client.
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:08.319
I was really into it.
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:09.760
I knew everything.
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:12.959
And now I cannot do Google Docs.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:20.560
I am so bad at it, as Amy knows, because she'll have to send back a document and say, Can you give me the authority?
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:21.040
Permission.
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:22.239
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.120
And then I stare at it just so you know what happens on my end.
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.079
First of all, I'm like, I can't believe I still don't know how to do this.
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:34.239
And then I say, and I stare and I stare and I stare at the document.
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.159
And then I just go, allow anybody who gets the wing every time.
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:38.480
Yeah.
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:40.319
And why isn't it just like that anyway?
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:40.719
Right.
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:41.760
Why isn't it set like that?
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:42.159
Yeah, right.
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:48.000
I just feel a little on the loser end of technology right now.
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.439
And I do not like the feeling.
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:51.439
No, I feel like it's overwhelming.
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:52.400
It is overwhelming.
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.480
The technology is overwhelming because it's always changing and there's always something new.
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:01.760
And I feel like we, like our generation, we've had to adapt so much first up.
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.920
I mean, in my so in my job, I was um was a teacher.
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.479
So literally we didn't have that at the beginning.
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:13.919
We I just had my handy dandy grade book that I would write my grades in, would handwrite report cards.
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:16.000
We didn't use technology at all.
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:16.560
Yep.
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:17.599
So it's different.
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:28.159
I've seen it like go from like later on, you know, a few years in when we could send our like report cards to a program and they would print it out.
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.680
So they would give a printed out report card to someone.
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:32.960
And now it's all online.
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:34.159
Like everything is online.
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:34.400
Right.
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:35.520
So it's completely different.
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:36.479
It's crazy.
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:41.199
And like the how the kids in college communicate with their professors, just ongoing.
00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:41.520
Yes.
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.759
Like you used to have to that's why they had office hours.
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:44.080
Yes.
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:44.879
You used to have to go visit.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:46.560
There was a reason back in the day.
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.719
Or they can zoom if they want to zoom.
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:50.560
Like that to me floors me too.
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:52.800
Like the whole idea of that.
00:02:53.039 --> 00:03:02.719
That that actually that is I have sometimes I have a hard time with Zoom, which is funny because usually if somebody sends you a Zoom link, you just click on it, right?
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.960
And it will open, it will launch the meeting or whatever.
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:11.919
I don't know what happens, but like sometimes I think I'm clicking on it right, and then it'll be like enter meeting code.
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:21.759
And then I have to go back, yeah, enter a meeting code, and then sometimes you can't find, and then it'll be like, your Zoom is not up to date, it's not updated or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah it is.
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:22.000
Yeah.
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:22.719
And I'm like, uh.
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:24.240
Well, how does it make you feel?
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:25.680
Like, I feel like horrible.
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:26.879
Okay, you it makes you feel bad.
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:32.319
Well, it's so frustrating, but I'm also the kind of person that I have to get to the bottom of it and I have to figure out what is wrong.
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:44.479
So I will spend, and I think that's why I I do know Google Docs, like, because for my work now, but I had to like really figure it out on my own.
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:51.680
So I would spend literally, I would spend hours like trying to figure out how to like undo something or how to do this.
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:52.479
Okay, this isn't working.
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:53.360
Let me figure it out.
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.360
And it will take me a long time.
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:55.919
Okay.
00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.439
And so that's why I remember when Josh, our amazing producer, um, was like, oh yeah, can you get into the backside of YouTube?
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.319
I'm like, Yeah, I'll figure it out because I will get into the backside of it and I'll figure out like what it is.
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:12.000
But I mean, I'm not that I'm good at it, it's just that I'll fit it's like problem solving.
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:12.479
Yes.
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.280
But it does make you feel kind of ridiculous.
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:15.680
Yes.
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:22.800
And I I appreciate that because there are things that I just go into like Chat GPT, open AI, when they first came out.
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.319
I was like into all the different AI.
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:37.839
I actually put together um what this podcast would look like with the balloon wall when I went showed you when I pitched you the idea of the podcast through chat chat GPT when they started having visuals.
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.720
And like I love using that.
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:46.319
I love now messing with pictures that we just took in family photos and like you make them into cartoons or you make whatever.
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:46.959
So fun.
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:47.680
It's really fun.
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:48.959
It takes up a lot of memory.
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:49.360
Yeah.
00:04:49.600 --> 00:05:03.040
But um, I I don't like feeling dumb and um like even posting some of this stuff for podcasting, it's like, oh, I have to learn how to do this too.
00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:05.759
And there's always these layers.
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:06.959
There's all these layers.
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:07.839
I don't like it.
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:11.519
And I get it, but I also don't have the time to learn five million different things.
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:15.920
We've already learned the fax machine just came out when I had my first internship.
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:16.879
Yes, that was a big deal.
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:17.839
That was a miracle.
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:18.959
That was a big deal.
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:19.519
Yes.
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:25.519
And and like I said, I've lived through so many of these techno, you have to through my job.
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:27.120
I was really cutting edge.
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:28.639
And then I went and got a master's in film.
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:33.439
So I knew all the latest editing systems and I know how to do sound and lighting.
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:37.759
And and now it's like, oh, just put your phone on a thing.
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.959
I don't even have to know how to work a fancy camera anymore.
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.000
Um, I wonder if I'd be able to do it now.
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:44.800
I don't know.
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:48.639
But I don't like the feeling and I don't like when people look at me with pity.
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:51.839
I speaking, you brought up producer Josh He.
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:52.480
Yes.
00:05:52.720 --> 00:06:00.720
I after we like did a few podcasts and I was trying to move files to edit them in Final Cut Pro, and he was like, drag and drop Jenny.
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.680
And I was like trying to do it over and over.
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.240
And for some reason, I know how to drag and drop, of course.
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:07.839
Okay, but it wasn't working.
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.160
And now drag and dropping wasn't working.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.120
No, no, just Josh, it wasn't working.
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:14.560
It wasn't our fault.
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:15.839
It wasn't my fault.
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.160
But then I I get the pity.
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.759
I was on a call with him yesterday and he was like, Oh, Jenny.
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.800
No, no, no, don't do that to me.
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:25.600
Don't do that to me.
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:29.600
No, because I do know what I'm doing, except for Google Docs.
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:44.800
Well, and I like I I was saying that my I was trying to figure out on Instagram Reels how to add music, like audio to it, and I figured it out, but then I couldn't figure out how to like get it to go throughout the whole video.
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:46.639
It was only in a certain chunk of the video.
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.639
So and I was messing with it, I was deleting, I was adding, I was doing all this stuff.
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.399
So I asked my daughter and I was like, can you just show me like what to do?
00:06:54.560 --> 00:07:03.759
And she was like, Yeah, and she like put her, I put my phone in her hand, she put her finger on the audio, moved the audio around with her finger, and I was like, What?
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:05.519
And that was it, and that was it.
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.240
And she figured out how to make it, and she's like, This arrow, and da-da-da.
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:12.639
And I was like, wait, I was like, first of all, I know I touched my phone a million times.
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:14.480
Like, why isn't it not working for me?
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:16.399
Right, like it's like dragging and dropping.
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:18.399
Yes, yes, maybe it's just that motion.
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.839
And I will say, I do have a hard time um typing on an iPhone because it's really hard.
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.319
Like, there was nothing better than typing on a Blackberry.
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.000
Yeah, I didn't I skipped Blackberry Palm Pilot to phone.
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:37.199
Okay, I had a Blackberry and it was white, and I loved it because the keys were like up high and you felt like you could type on a agreed.
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.120
And people looked really cool with Blackberries.
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:39.680
100%.
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.120
I felt that way with my palm pilot.
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:41.519
Oh, yeah.
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:43.920
And you are not a TikToker, right?
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:48.000
Oh no, okay, that's another thing that puts me over the edge, is TikTok because I don't understand it.
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:56.000
I don't understand it in general, the platform in general, like how it works, like what comes on your page and all that stuff.
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:01.600
And I also I don't under to me the it's one and the same as Instagram reels.
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.800
Like Instagram reels are videos, tick tocks are videos.
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.519
I think it's the same.
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:06.000
Okay.
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:09.279
I'm gonna say that TikTok is like an A plus.
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:09.920
Okay.
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:13.759
That's and then uh Instagram Reels is a C.
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:14.560
Okay.
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:22.959
Like TikTokers get sent reels, and they're like, yeah, I saw that a month ago on TikTok.
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:23.279
Okay.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:24.800
Reels came second.
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:25.279
Okay.
00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:29.439
TikTok, I think, has more trends and reels follows.
00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:31.360
I think TikTok has so many trends.
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:31.600
Yeah.
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.080
So and I love like I'm a big TikToker.
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:35.600
I get my news through TikTok.
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:41.759
I learn Taylor Swift dances to, you know, in her music videos, there are dance teachers on there.
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:41.919
Yeah.
00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:43.360
Just all by my lonesome.
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:43.759
Yep.
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.759
And like I just do everything.
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:49.360
Actually, that's where I heard about Chat GPT for the first time was TikTok.
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.480
Yeah, there's a woman, I think her name's Allie Miller.
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:52.960
Okay.
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:54.720
And she was in that world.
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:56.000
And she started talking about it.
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.600
And then I started researching because I was thinking, I'm I was like her.
00:08:59.759 --> 00:09:00.720
I was in the tech world.
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:02.639
Yeah, you're like, I get it, I get it.
00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:04.879
And it motivated me to get busy.
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:07.360
And so I did learn a few things that way.
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:08.399
I still follow her.
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:11.759
She's much more advanced now and can do much, you know, obviously much more.
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:11.919
Right.
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:12.240
Right.
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.159
But um, so I love TikTok.
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:14.960
That's like my world.
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:18.159
I can sit instead of watching TV and watch TikTok.
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:18.559
Okay.
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.320
I follow creators.
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:23.039
I've watched several of them blow up.
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:23.679
They love it.
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.399
Husband TikTok, a Chicago area dad.
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:27.360
He's blowing up.
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:30.799
I've watched him since he was doing these cute little song videos.
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:31.360
Got it.
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:32.639
Like I love it.
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:33.600
I feel it one.
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.000
It's like taking over celebrity gossip for me almost.
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:37.440
Oh, yeah, I could see that.
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:41.120
They're like, I I and I do feel like I know them, not in a weird way.
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.240
Like we talked about reality TV a couple episodes ago.
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:44.639
Yeah.
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.279
I don't feel weird about it, but you do feel a closeness.
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.120
Yeah, you feel like connected with reality.
00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.559
I feel that way with TikTokers.
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:56.080
I'm not a scroller, so I don't have I don't have a an attention span to do that.
00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:03.120
Like my I remember when I first signed, so I signed up for TikTok because you have to have an account in order to see everything.
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.480
So people send me stuff, so I have to be able to see it.
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:11.919
So but I remember my friend being like, Oh, you're gonna love it, you're just gonna sit, you're just gonna scroll.
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.360
And I was like, I don't scroll.
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:15.039
Like I don't not on reels?
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:16.240
No.
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:19.759
I mean, I'll look at some, but then I'm like, okay, I'm good.
00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:22.559
If I see a funny one that cracks me up, I'll send it.
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:24.240
You know that I'll send you hilarious ones.
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:24.639
Yes.
00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:29.840
But um, other than that, I'm not like a scroller, but I feel like I mean my friends are and they swear by it.
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:30.320
They love it.
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.559
There are times I'll be like, oh, I'm gonna watch a show, and then I start TikToking, and two hours later.
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:38.639
Yeah, that's and I've been more entertained than an hour-long show.
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:39.519
So I'm good.
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:40.080
Yeah.
00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:46.080
Okay, well, thank you for making me feel a little better about something, and I'll work on my Google Docs so we can work better.
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:47.919
Or maybe I'll it can become your friend.
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:48.320
Google.
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:51.440
I honestly don't think it'll become my friend, but thank you so much.
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:56.559
Um, I would I would officially go into that being my PMO, but right I we already talked about it.
00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:59.519
So why don't you tell me a PMO, something that pissed you off?
00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:03.600
Well, I have a PMO, um, and it kind of goes along with technology.
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.919
It's when you email or text someone and they don't respond.
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:09.039
Yeah, rude.
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:10.639
So I I agreed.
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:16.879
So here's the here's my rationale is first of all, I respond to people.
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:21.919
Now I may not be like respond to you the minute you text me, but eventually I will respond.
00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.720
And I don't mean eventually by like five days down the road.
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:32.559
I mean like if I can't get to you right now, like I know right now, like my mom and my sister are probably texting me like questions.
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:34.000
They they do it all through the day.
00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:40.399
And if I'm busy or something, I'll usually shoot a text to them, be like, so sorry, I'm busy right now, but I will get to it.
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:46.720
And I will get to it like later in the day, or I'll heart something and be like, we'll catch up soon, or something like that.
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:52.559
Um, it's not that I need that, I need you to respond at some point.
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:53.600
Do not leave me.
00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:58.639
If I ask you a question and you don't answer the question ever, yeah, I can't, I don't like that.
00:11:58.799 --> 00:11:59.519
It's just rude.
00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:04.080
Or if you respond like six or seven days later and say, Oh, I just saw your text.
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.159
I'm like, nah, girl, you didn't just see my text.
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:11.440
Because we all have phones, we all have iPads or our computers or whatever we have.
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.320
You have seen what I texted you, right?
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:15.840
You're just choosing not to respond.
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:16.559
Agreed.
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.799
And that's just rude and have some manners.
00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:25.200
And I do think sometimes you need maybe you need to take a sna a a second to respond.
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.039
Like maybe you need to wait a day or whatever.
00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.879
That's one hot, I totally get that.
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:34.399
I'm talking about the I text in the week later, somebody's like, I well, sorry, I'm just getting to this.
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:36.480
I'm like, no, you're not getting to this at all.
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.600
And we all have a computer in our hand, basically.
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:40.639
Our phone is a computer.
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:41.360
We all have it.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.600
Yeah.
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:42.639
So don't be rude.
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:43.759
No, don't be rude.
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:44.080
Right.
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:44.720
Don't be weird.
00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:45.440
PMO'd.
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:46.080
Don't be a rude.
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:47.039
Oh my gosh.
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:51.120
So that came from um a woman I was friends with for a while.
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:51.519
Yeah.
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:53.120
She said it to her mom.
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:57.360
They were sort of having a transition where her mom started to come and visit her with her daughter.
00:12:57.519 --> 00:12:57.759
Okay.
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.639
And she would say to her mom, you know, grab, just take whatever you want.
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:01.200
Don't be weird.
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:01.840
Don't be weird.
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.279
And our entire family started it and it I started saying it after her.
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:05.759
I love it.
00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.200
I have to tell you, it's good.
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:07.679
It's good.
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:08.399
Don't be weird.
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:09.120
Don't be weird.
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:10.240
It encompasses so many weeks.
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:10.720
Don't be weird.
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:11.440
Don't be weird.
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:11.679
Yeah.
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:11.919
Okay.
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:12.480
Amazing.
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:12.799
All right.
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:13.440
