Taylor Swift, Chat GPT, & Quads

Taylor Swift, Chat GPT, & Quads

Send us a text

Did you use ChatGPT to learn how to change a tire? Today is the day we unpacked the power of ChatGPT tell you how we give your and we talk to you about how we use it to break the cycle of writer’s block or even to help in efficiency when it comes to creating copy or content. We also challenge Chat GPT to create content - for a tire salesman/ sales page, because why not?

But even better we kick it with a conversation Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Before she was the performer, you guys know now she was a songwriter and she’s written songs for acts as big as Little Big Town.

Have you heard about some the latest social media trends, the idea that “followers” as a concept might actually be dead, but engagement still reins queen? Conversation about longer length reels beginning to make a bigger impact. 

Between long runs and left turns - camping trips - and the existential question of “why doesn’t Disney have a library”? And was the beast, from Beauty & the Beast a dog or a lion? Help!  We dive into high school, and Napoleon Dynamite

00:00:10.734 --> 00:00:21.123
I'm singing boys truth be told, do you ever just like take your podcast mic and just like pretend like you're taylor, like singing?

00:00:21.123 --> 00:00:23.689
I should know, have you?

00:00:23.689 --> 00:00:26.153
No, but I feel like I kind of want to.

00:00:26.841 --> 00:00:27.625
We should do it together.

00:00:27.625 --> 00:00:32.121
We should actually do a reel where we like lip sync, something, you know.

00:00:32.182 --> 00:00:33.264
I don't do stuff like that.

00:00:34.648 --> 00:00:36.813
No, you do now you said you're a yes girl.

00:00:36.813 --> 00:00:41.006
I said last episode you're a yes girl and now you say yes to things.

00:00:41.006 --> 00:00:47.003
I have like two reels that I want to do with you anyways, because we need to show our pieces more on Mayhem.

00:00:47.003 --> 00:00:48.829
We have to, we have to.

00:00:50.634 --> 00:00:51.240
We've been through this.

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:51.981
It's important.

00:00:52.283 --> 00:00:54.591
People want to see your little fat chabela.

00:00:54.591 --> 00:00:56.706
They want to see your beautiful face.

00:00:57.619 --> 00:01:00.442
I look like Chewbacca when I try to do this.

00:01:00.442 --> 00:01:01.787
How many times do I have to tell you this?

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:05.090
It is like do it with me, but we're going to bring the mics.

00:01:05.090 --> 00:01:07.555
I think we do.

00:01:07.555 --> 00:01:08.703
It's all coming back to me now.

00:01:08.703 --> 00:01:09.927
We do like a Celine Dion.

00:01:09.927 --> 00:01:11.344
I put like a sheet around you.

00:01:11.344 --> 00:01:17.046
We get the fan going, We'll get the mics I would rather eat nails.

00:01:17.046 --> 00:01:23.084
Okay, speaking of music, I saw something insane this morning that I'm really excited about.

00:01:23.084 --> 00:01:27.846
We're going to drift off into territory, we're going to take a left and then I'm going to bring it back.

00:01:27.846 --> 00:01:29.430
Shocker, let's go.

00:01:29.430 --> 00:01:32.486
Taylor Swift is obviously back on tour.

00:01:33.750 --> 00:01:34.652
I know, I'm so excited.

00:01:35.301 --> 00:01:37.028
So excited because you're going to see her this round.

00:01:37.028 --> 00:01:43.365
The Tortured Poets Department is definitely in her lineup, but I saw this thing this morning.

00:01:43.365 --> 00:02:00.701
Somebody did a video of her singing so high school, which is her song about travis, kelsey and she is doing the dance moves that he does in the end zone, like all of it's choreographed with his, like silly antics from football.

00:02:00.701 --> 00:02:03.147
Like her dance moves aren't her normal dance moves, they're his.

00:02:03.147 --> 00:02:06.623
It's so funny, did you?

00:02:06.703 --> 00:02:09.768
I'm gonna I will share it, but I so.

00:02:09.768 --> 00:02:12.233
Here's the full circle of this.

00:02:12.233 --> 00:02:13.600
Obviously we love taylor swift.

00:02:13.600 --> 00:02:14.223
We're obsessed.

00:02:14.223 --> 00:02:15.468
Tortured poets department.

00:02:15.468 --> 00:02:16.393
I'm a big fan.

00:02:16.393 --> 00:02:18.400
I'm actually a reputation in 1989, girl hardcore.

00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:19.260
You are all day reputation for sure.

00:02:19.260 --> 00:02:20.162
Have you noticed I changed?

00:02:20.181 --> 00:02:20.542
my phone case.

00:02:20.562 --> 00:02:22.424
You are all day reputation for sure.

00:02:22.424 --> 00:02:24.626
Have you noticed I changed my phone case?

00:02:24.626 --> 00:02:26.768
No, let me see.

00:02:26.768 --> 00:02:33.175
It's a um Ooh, I know I saw it and I had to have it.

00:02:33.175 --> 00:02:34.716
It's a little outside of my norm.

00:02:34.716 --> 00:02:44.586
First of all, I haven't had a black phone case since I was in like eighth grade, but it was reputation inspired and so I just had to have it.

00:02:44.586 --> 00:02:45.751
I like it.

00:02:45.751 --> 00:02:47.405
I'm a big fan.

00:02:47.405 --> 00:02:49.286
Reputation, though, for me is like heart.

00:02:49.286 --> 00:02:52.310
Maybe we'll do reputation song for our like Mike lip sync.

00:02:53.841 --> 00:02:56.766
You are going to have to get I'm going to have to have a lot of wine to do any of that.

00:02:56.807 --> 00:02:59.588
You know this just need a little in me, it's going to be fine.

00:02:59.588 --> 00:03:06.825
But then I started thinking about writer's block In this album.

00:03:06.825 --> 00:03:20.826
Didn't she spend like two years writing this album, I think so While she was touring, while she was doing like 900 things, and she fell out of love right, because it's actually a breakup album basically.

00:03:20.826 --> 00:03:23.442
Then she fell into love again the girl is so busy.

00:03:23.442 --> 00:03:27.129
But writer's block, I feel like creative block.

00:03:27.129 --> 00:03:28.774
Writer's block could be an email.

00:03:28.774 --> 00:03:36.490
We have not unpacked this whole chat GPT thing yet fully on this podcast and I think today is the day oh, I'm obsessed.

00:03:36.550 --> 00:03:37.270
I'm obsessed.

00:03:37.651 --> 00:03:39.814
Today is the day let's do it Taylor.

00:03:39.814 --> 00:03:40.616
Swift inspired.

00:03:40.616 --> 00:03:43.328
We talk, chat, gpt, let's go.

00:03:44.009 --> 00:03:44.390
Let's go.

00:03:44.390 --> 00:03:50.939
What you?

00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.045
got Um, I love it, like you, people aren't using yet why?

00:03:54.045 --> 00:04:00.603
There are people that you and I know I would put large sums of money on it that aren't using it at all.

00:04:00.603 --> 00:04:03.069
I think well, first of all, what's the real why?

00:04:03.069 --> 00:04:14.105
The real why why people don't use anything is just because they don't understand it or somebody puts fear around it, and then it becomes this thing, right yeah.

00:04:15.268 --> 00:04:16.992
No, I'm obsessed, I love it.

00:04:16.992 --> 00:04:20.384
I think it gives such great ideas.

00:04:20.384 --> 00:04:22.908
It is super helpful.

00:04:22.908 --> 00:04:25.892
From like like I help people with resumes.

00:04:25.892 --> 00:04:29.625
It really helps get some clarity around, like just basic sentences.

00:04:29.625 --> 00:04:31.930
You can ask it how to do stuff.

00:04:31.930 --> 00:04:39.850
You can use it as a thesaurus, you can use it I mean, I am legitimately obsessed with it.

00:04:39.850 --> 00:04:40.973
Like I love it.

00:04:40.973 --> 00:04:44.365
Like I don't feel like there's any negative to it.

00:04:44.365 --> 00:04:47.112
I know some people are dogging on oh it love it.

00:04:47.112 --> 00:04:48.675
Like I don't feel like there's any negative to it.

00:04:48.675 --> 00:04:49.999
I know some people are dogging on oh, it replaces people.

00:04:49.999 --> 00:04:51.961
I mean, come on, I don't believe that at all.

00:04:51.961 --> 00:04:56.552
Like, because there's definitely a lack of emotion around it.

00:04:57.521 --> 00:05:01.887
So you should qualify that you can't copy and paste directly from chat.

00:05:01.887 --> 00:05:08.172
Chat GPT or I would say we highly recommend against doing so.

00:05:08.172 --> 00:05:15.069
I just think it's not the same as human, written or creative content.

00:05:15.069 --> 00:05:20.103
So you, but it's a great place to start it is.

00:05:20.223 --> 00:05:22.608
It's a great place to get ideas, like.

00:05:22.608 --> 00:05:23.769
That's what it does for me.

00:05:23.769 --> 00:05:32.925
Like you know, I'm someone who does kind of get in that zone where it's like oh, I don't really know how, I know what I want to say, but I don't know how to piece the words together.

00:05:32.925 --> 00:05:40.600
Yeah, it'll piece them together and I'm like, oh, I don't really like that, but I like this part from it so you can kind of like maneuver and it gets your.

00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:46.208
It activates like a different part of my brain saying like, oh well, why don't you think about this word instead?

00:05:46.208 --> 00:05:48.011
And so that's to me.

00:05:48.011 --> 00:05:49.372
It kind of gets me going.

00:05:49.372 --> 00:05:51.862
So that's why I like it personally.

00:05:52.824 --> 00:05:53.627
I think we can use it.

00:05:53.627 --> 00:05:58.646
I think we should start back at the beginning, but I will say this I have used it more than I thought I would.

00:05:58.646 --> 00:05:59.708
I just used it.

00:05:59.788 --> 00:06:21.925
So we have state testing right now, basically for school, and pilot's teacher asked us to send in a little note, three notes, one for each of the days of state testing, like an encouragement note, and I tried to make them all creative, but not the same, and so one of them I just took her name and then I did keywords that reminded me of her for each like letter.

00:06:21.925 --> 00:06:33.687
But I had to use chat UPT because I got hung up on the L and the T and I don't know why I just got like, or it was the I and the T, I just got a little hung up.

00:06:33.687 --> 00:06:51.793
I wanted something more and so I asked chat GPT to give me 10 examples of like personality descriptors essentially is what I said, and I basically said also liking it to like make it appropriate for kids.

00:06:51.793 --> 00:06:55.646
And then I picked from that, but they came up with great words that hadn't even thought of.

00:06:56.427 --> 00:06:59.646
I love that I love that and that's kind of what it does for me too.

00:06:59.646 --> 00:07:05.190
But I also feel like it's a great resource to like just figure out how to do stuff.

00:07:05.190 --> 00:07:16.939
So, like you legitimately, like don't laugh at me, but I just typed in how to make pasta limon, yeah, and it's giving me the recipe.

00:07:16.939 --> 00:07:18.824
I mean I love it.

00:07:18.824 --> 00:07:24.461
It's I can type how to change a tire and you know what it's telling me how to change a tire.

00:07:24.461 --> 00:07:28.151
So I feel like like that's the part that I love about it.

00:07:28.151 --> 00:07:46.620
It can not only help you get past writer's block, it can also teach you how to do things and it can help write letters, resumes, help give you content, ideas, not necessarily to just, like Rebecca said, copy and paste, but at least to get your wheels turning.

00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:51.612
Like, oh, I didn't even think that would be a good, you know, a good piece of content to post.

00:07:51.612 --> 00:07:53.670
Like, let me, let's let's find an example.

00:07:53.670 --> 00:07:54.875
I'm going to do a search here.

00:07:54.875 --> 00:07:56.682
Let me, let me search content.

00:07:56.802 --> 00:08:00.552
If we're taking a little bit of a left turn on that cause, that's like a whole podcast.

00:08:00.552 --> 00:08:11.471
But I can almost guarantee that if you are hung up on creating content, it's because you are significantly overthinking the content you need to create 100%.

00:08:12.593 --> 00:08:18.007
My simplest content, our simplest content, is the stuff that performs the best.

00:08:18.007 --> 00:08:24.834
People try to fit an entire book into 10 seconds, actually, so this is an interesting trend.

00:08:24.834 --> 00:08:26.420
We're going to take a harder left.

00:08:26.420 --> 00:08:29.767
Then we're going to come back to chat GPT.

00:08:29.767 --> 00:08:39.897
I made a reel the other day and before I went to publish, a little note came up from Instagram that said your reel is only 13 seconds.

00:08:39.897 --> 00:08:47.293
Reels that are 30 seconds or more are performing better, and that is a major trend.

00:08:47.293 --> 00:08:51.730
I think I took a screenshot of it to share with you and then I completely forgot.

00:08:51.730 --> 00:09:04.102
But that's a trend shift, right, because we, for a little bit there, we were teaching people, like that was the trend, was short, short, short, but apparently we talked about this a few podcasts ago.

00:09:04.102 --> 00:09:06.043
But you've got to get more authentic.

00:09:06.043 --> 00:09:08.971
You've got to get more real If you want people to engage with you.

00:09:08.971 --> 00:09:13.129
Like this idea of this fake influencers essentially almost dead.

00:09:13.129 --> 00:09:21.062
They want to see the real you, but apparently now they're also willing to stay longer, which is so, so interesting.

00:09:21.261 --> 00:09:22.446
That is interesting.

00:09:22.446 --> 00:09:24.250
I love that it recommended that.

00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.791
Oh yeah, I will find the screenshot for you, but I was shook because I haven't seen that.

00:09:29.059 --> 00:09:30.663
Yeah, I feel like that's a long time.

00:09:31.525 --> 00:09:37.462
I know, and maybe it's the beginning of the trend, so maybe they're trying to move this shift over.

00:09:37.462 --> 00:09:51.397
But I also saw this other thing that was actually from the Instagram team about how essentially the concept of followers is dead.

00:09:51.397 --> 00:10:02.046
So it doesn't matter how many followers you have anymore when the algorithm is prioritizing how you get a chance to be seen.

00:10:02.046 --> 00:10:21.043
And I actually just stumbled upon a local influencer and I looked at her reels and I looked at her followers and whether they're completely disengaged or they're purchased, the disconnect between her 24,000 followers and her 1100 views on every reel kills me.

00:10:21.043 --> 00:10:25.432
It's just that tells me that your audience isn't engaged at all, but that's fine.

00:10:25.432 --> 00:10:35.645
So engagement matters significantly more, so as you continue to produce the amount of people who are willing to engage with you.

00:10:35.645 --> 00:10:38.578
That's the math that they're basing it off of right now.

00:10:38.578 --> 00:10:43.018
They're not going to put you just in front of people because you have the following.

00:10:43.018 --> 00:10:45.282
They've already decided that there's a very already decided that that's.

00:10:45.302 --> 00:11:04.711
There's a very good chance that that's superficial and falsified in some way, I agree and again, I think we we always talk about like you want to talk to your people, yep, and I feel like when you have 75,000 people like, are they truly all your audience?

00:11:04.711 --> 00:11:11.471
Like I know for me, when we personally get followers on our either marketing mayhem or our gritty gal page, like I always look to see who it is like.

00:11:11.471 --> 00:11:19.590
If it's a business that follows our gritty gal page, I get pumped because I'm like this is our target audience, because that's who we work with is small to medium-sized businesses.

00:11:19.590 --> 00:11:33.408
But if it's just you know, some rando, you know we get some random um businesses that don't really apply, it's like I don't get as excited because I'm like I don't think they would ever resonate with our content.

00:11:33.408 --> 00:11:35.892
Be our kind of client, that kind of thing.

00:11:35.892 --> 00:11:37.595
I mean great, yeah, Thanks for the follow.

00:11:37.595 --> 00:11:41.912
But I know that you're not really our target audience per se.

00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:44.182
Well, and I think here's what it comes down to.

00:11:44.182 --> 00:11:54.446
Also, if somebody keeps consuming your content, it doesn't matter if they follow you or if they don't Instagram will keep putting you in front of them.

00:11:54.446 --> 00:12:22.676
So I think that is one of the reasons and I don't know if I'm articulating this well I think that's one of the reasons that following doesn't matter anymore, because if I consume your content every day, I actually this happened to me the other day, where I went to click on the person's page and I realized I actually wasn't following them and I felt like the biggest dick hole because I consume their content all the time and I was like what I know better than to not follow somebody, but it may.

00:12:22.676 --> 00:12:28.407
It begged the perfect case for what I had just read, because it knows already who's consuming.

00:12:28.407 --> 00:12:31.033
So your engagement matters significantly more.

00:12:31.033 --> 00:12:41.754
One thing that I love about both of our pages the Mayhem and the Gritty page both of them perform significantly better than the following that they have.

00:12:42.236 --> 00:12:44.883
So the real engagement is well above.

00:12:44.883 --> 00:12:52.006
It's, almost, on average, three to four times higher than our current following, which I think is very cool yeah.

00:12:52.047 --> 00:12:52.750
I think it's great.

00:12:52.750 --> 00:12:55.267
You're making the good content.

00:12:55.740 --> 00:13:00.139
I took us on a little bit of a trip, but we need to go back to chat GPT or somebody is going to mess with us?

00:13:00.158 --> 00:13:10.884
We do, but I also feel like, do you feel like, yeah, Chat GPT can give you content that gives you high engagement?

00:13:12.190 --> 00:13:34.466
Well, let's ask it right now to give you 10, like, have it, tell you what the top 10 trending content stories are, or just top trending content on Instagram.

00:13:34.466 --> 00:13:40.142
Okay, it is using math to tell you what the answer is.

00:13:41.370 --> 00:13:41.471
Now.

00:13:41.471 --> 00:13:41.972
This is interesting.

00:13:41.972 --> 00:13:48.400
As of now, I can't provide real-time information on Instagram's trending content, Ooh.

00:13:48.400 --> 00:13:59.260
However, you can find this information directly on Instagram by exploring the Explore tab or checking out the Trending section, which often highlights popular and trending content across the platform.

00:14:00.070 --> 00:14:04.394
It's probably because it's too microscopic, it's like too focused, because even your.

00:14:04.394 --> 00:14:08.738
Trending page and your Explore page are still based off of your own consumption.

00:14:08.758 --> 00:14:12.232
All right, how about?

00:14:12.232 --> 00:14:13.859
I'm just going to leave it pretty easy peasy.

00:14:13.859 --> 00:14:16.717
I'm just going to say give me 10 real ideas.

00:14:16.717 --> 00:14:38.277
Yeah, tutorial reel day in the life reel, before and after transformation reel, challenge reel, q&a reel, showcase reel, behind the scenes reel, travel reel I love a travel reel, flashback reel, educational reel.

00:14:38.852 --> 00:14:39.495
So I mean, that's the thing.

00:14:39.495 --> 00:14:54.182
That's the thing I love about they're generic, though they're generic, but I also, for somebody who doesn't have Any marketing, like nothing, yeah, if you are a tire salesman, you could go to chat GPT.

00:14:54.182 --> 00:14:56.716
Actually, let's use that example.

00:14:56.716 --> 00:14:57.378
I think that's a great.

00:14:57.378 --> 00:15:03.280
Give me 10 tire real ideas.

00:15:03.280 --> 00:15:04.703
Let's see what they say.

00:15:04.703 --> 00:15:08.794
Tire change tutorial this is why I freaking love this.

00:15:08.794 --> 00:15:09.577
This is incredible.

00:15:09.577 --> 00:15:24.909
Tire maintenance tips, tire safety awareness, tire transformation reel, off-road adventure, tire brand comparison, tire testimonials, tire maintenance myths, extreme tire challenges, tire art and creativity.

00:15:24.909 --> 00:15:27.416
I mean y'all Tire art.

00:15:27.416 --> 00:15:57.080
That's what I'm saying and that's why I love chat GBT is because when you have someone, let's talk about a startup business, and you have someone who has zero clues about where to start with branding, marketing, social media, website, SEO, email marketing, chat GPT at least provides a resource to get started and for that reason, I absolutely love it like it's just just reaching the acronyms.

00:15:57.159 --> 00:15:59.955
Like you can put anything in.

00:15:59.955 --> 00:16:06.052
Like the sky is the limit you can put a really general thing in, like jenny was saying, then you can narrow it down.

00:16:06.052 --> 00:16:15.538
But even if you're just researching the acronyms I mean starting a business there's a lot of abbreviated whatever's and I'm like what is even happening right now?

00:16:16.169 --> 00:16:19.414
I don't even know what I'm filling out, or, like where to start.

00:16:19.414 --> 00:16:20.956
Like I want to open a business.

00:16:20.956 --> 00:16:24.551
What are the things I need to think about, you know?

00:16:24.571 --> 00:16:34.134
so I think you can use it as like I mean, it's like freaking Google you can use it as like I mean it's like freaking Google, I mean it really is.

00:16:34.134 --> 00:16:39.374
I will say people are intimidated Like we were intimidated of the internet and email, probably because it's new and it's changed and people don't love change.

00:16:39.374 --> 00:16:47.836
I saw this reel the other day that had Katie Couric and Al Roker talking about they had just gotten their first email address.

00:16:48.217 --> 00:16:51.023
Oh yeah, I saw that one too.

00:16:51.403 --> 00:16:52.284
I was shook.

00:16:52.284 --> 00:16:53.852
I know we should try to find it.

00:16:53.852 --> 00:16:58.043
But they were like what is this at sign, like how do we say it?

00:16:58.529 --> 00:17:08.877
And I was like we have come so far, so far but I love it for like my kid Right, I mean I love it that she's going to have that help.

00:17:08.877 --> 00:17:16.810
I mean because you think about it, you take yourself back to like when you were doing like book reports surf, like middle and high school and college.

00:17:16.810 --> 00:17:28.582
You went to the library and you better know that dewey decimal system so you even know how to find the book that you want, because they didn't have computers to go find it.

00:17:28.582 --> 00:17:30.596
It's like flipping card catalog.

00:17:30.596 --> 00:17:32.894
How could you forget about?

00:17:32.914 --> 00:17:33.837
Dewey, did you watch?

00:17:33.837 --> 00:17:45.252
I think I just said it left my brain, although you took me to a place where I'm like I would love to go into like a really beautiful giant library and just wander.

00:17:45.373 --> 00:17:47.176
I am obsessed with a library.

00:17:48.299 --> 00:18:01.840
I well, we have a great library, you and I do, we do, we spend a lot of time I mean like a romantic library, like the New York city library or like something like really beautiful, like the beauty and the beast part of me is just actually my cousin.

00:18:01.840 --> 00:18:10.770
I know my cousin Dennis sent me a meme the other day that was like what an absolute fumble that disney doesn't have a library on.

00:18:10.770 --> 00:18:16.320
Agreed, yeah, agreed, I mean, please we're all really do, you know?

00:18:16.342 --> 00:18:20.413
my hairbrush has bell on it with like a ladder that you could like.

00:18:21.614 --> 00:18:31.785
Yes, flat on these yeah and same, give me the big, tall, handsome guy into it who beast?

00:18:32.224 --> 00:18:40.618
or gaston no, not gaston ew so you would basically like you would date a dog he.

00:18:40.618 --> 00:18:50.277
He wasn't, though he was a prince I know, but when she fell in love with him, he was legit, he was like a dog I guess I thought he was a lion, but he was big, so you probably did.

00:18:50.277 --> 00:18:51.339
He did have big thighs.

00:18:51.339 --> 00:18:53.795
I know you like a big thigh god, I love a quad.

00:18:53.996 --> 00:18:56.381
Something about it take me home.

00:18:56.381 --> 00:18:58.834
I don't know why am I like this.

00:18:59.035 --> 00:19:02.746
I am absolutely that's my favorite part on a man.

00:19:02.746 --> 00:19:03.950
My husband has a quad.

00:19:05.011 --> 00:19:17.490
The legs yes unglued over on I mean yeah toss in some shoulders there and like some whatever I don't even need it I don't even need it.

00:19:17.530 --> 00:19:25.982
I love a good, strong leg and I don't know why it's like the weirdest part of a man to like, because I feel like most girls are like forearms back.

00:19:25.982 --> 00:19:29.575
You know that I mean I love a forearm going down to there.

00:19:29.575 --> 00:19:33.355
Whatever that, you know I'm talking about what's it called the v?

00:19:33.355 --> 00:19:35.181
Card, well, not the v card.

00:19:35.181 --> 00:19:39.396
That's like your virginity and I don't think that's right you repeated it immediately.

00:19:40.398 --> 00:19:41.923
You know like the v that goes.

00:19:41.923 --> 00:19:42.913
I know what you're saying.

00:19:42.953 --> 00:19:46.071
They know what you're saying, I'm trying to make sure our listeners understand what I'm saying.

00:19:46.071 --> 00:19:47.277
It's not the v card.

00:19:47.638 --> 00:19:50.730
But you can't get that if you don't have a decent quad.

00:19:50.730 --> 00:19:53.459
Like, just do you so?

00:19:53.459 --> 00:19:54.883
Do you like the shorter shorts?

00:19:54.883 --> 00:19:56.647
Like the tighter guy short trend?

00:19:56.708 --> 00:19:59.394
yeah which is ironic because my husband does not.

00:19:59.394 --> 00:20:02.060
He wears like his pants kind of around his butt.

00:20:02.121 --> 00:20:07.963
So I think most men our age don't love the trend, but I'm I'm for it when he puts on like normal shorts, like a, like you know if you like you know it's a shorter short.

00:20:07.983 --> 00:20:13.476
I'm like I am here for it when he puts on like normal shorts, like a bait, like you know, if you like you know it's a shorter short, I'm like I am here for it.

00:20:13.476 --> 00:20:16.923
The five inch, yeah, like it's like.

00:20:17.711 --> 00:20:26.915
Yes, goodness, gracious, yeah it's my fave so you take another left hand turn we're almost in a full square, though we've taken three left, so just one.

00:20:26.915 --> 00:20:29.961
By the way, I think you should know this about me.

00:20:29.961 --> 00:20:33.012
This is this is one thing.

00:20:33.012 --> 00:20:40.364
My I drive my parents crazy, but, um, I am a uh on hiatus runner.

00:20:40.364 --> 00:20:45.008
I am a runner, I identify as a runner, but I still have a broken leg and I need an ortho.

00:20:45.008 --> 00:20:47.494
So if you're local and you know somebody, please let us know.

00:20:48.056 --> 00:20:49.859
But your leg is like legit broken.

00:20:49.859 --> 00:20:51.282
Yeah, it has been.

00:20:51.282 --> 00:20:53.134
I have an x-ray.

00:20:53.134 --> 00:20:55.079
That stress fracture is like a legit fracture.

00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:59.775
It's like straight across the middle of my shin, Jeez, so I can't run.

00:20:59.775 --> 00:21:08.685
But always was a runner like run every day, and so I would go home to New York and I always went home from this big camping trip.

00:21:08.685 --> 00:21:11.311
And they change where it is every I know.

00:21:11.311 --> 00:21:13.098
But it's like my parents and all.

00:21:13.098 --> 00:21:15.910
So, growing up, two families camped together.

00:21:15.910 --> 00:21:17.915
They have big RVs, it's like a whole thing.

00:21:17.915 --> 00:21:19.421
There's four daughters on the other side.

00:21:19.421 --> 00:21:26.795
Now we're all grown so we have like families and then some of their friends come and it is like a 25 person camping trip.

00:21:26.795 --> 00:21:29.740
It's the plants the beer.

00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:30.981
It's so much fun.

00:21:30.981 --> 00:21:31.784
Everyone has kids.

00:21:31.784 --> 00:21:36.840
Now it's a big, like my parents and their parents big steaks and huge dinners.

00:21:36.840 --> 00:21:39.954
It's out of control and the kids love it.

00:21:39.954 --> 00:21:40.998
It's a great cousin time.

00:21:40.998 --> 00:21:43.191
Here's the thing, big runner.

00:21:43.191 --> 00:21:45.798
They change where it is every year.

00:21:45.938 --> 00:21:47.931
So I can't and you know I can't read a damn map.

00:21:47.931 --> 00:21:49.875
I'm not Christopher Columbus, I'm not into it.

00:21:49.875 --> 00:21:56.656
So eventually, like probably three years ago, my mom said when are you going to be back from your run Cause?

00:21:56.656 --> 00:22:01.693
We were out in the middle of nowhere, like the country, and I was like well, I have no idea, I don't know, I haven't done this route before.

00:22:01.693 --> 00:22:02.575
I don't know where I'm going.

00:22:02.575 --> 00:22:04.958
She was like well, surely you mapped it.

00:22:04.958 --> 00:22:05.858
Like you map these right?

00:22:05.858 --> 00:22:07.740
I was like no, I just start taking turns.

00:22:07.740 --> 00:22:08.662
And she was like what do you mean?

00:22:08.662 --> 00:22:11.665
I said well, if you take four left-hand turns, you're in a square.

00:22:11.665 --> 00:22:17.559
And she was like Rebecca, only if, for some reason.

00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:28.163
I was like I hate to tell you this because it hasn't failed me yet, but eventually, if I just take the same turn every time, I get back to where I started.

00:22:28.871 --> 00:22:31.131
She was like this is how people end up lost in the woods.

00:22:31.131 --> 00:22:34.859
I'm just going to say it Like you hear about these like hikers and runners.

00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:39.559
She was so mad she made my brother, my middle brother, start coming with me.

00:22:39.559 --> 00:22:41.872
She was like this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

00:22:41.872 --> 00:22:46.999
And I was like but if you just take a left and then another left and then another left, your next left is home.

00:22:51.124 --> 00:22:53.126
I don't even know what to say here.

00:22:53.126 --> 00:22:57.977
I mean, the logic resonates, but I don't know if that's accurate.

00:22:57.977 --> 00:23:00.663
I'm not very good at geography.

00:23:01.289 --> 00:23:07.914
We were in a farming town and so, truth be told, because I grew up in a farming town, most of that stuff is very grid.

00:23:07.914 --> 00:23:09.419
It's kind of like New York City.

00:23:09.419 --> 00:23:13.960
It's not Joe Schmo and Larry Curley, it's a grid.

00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:22.298
So you're definitely inside of parallel lines, so the theory is fairly safe.

00:23:25.770 --> 00:23:28.660
Oh God, Farmfields.

00:23:28.789 --> 00:23:29.795
They're built like grids.

00:23:38.590 --> 00:23:41.134
I feel like now we're talking geometry which I did not do well on in school.

00:23:41.134 --> 00:23:43.097
I think it was trig that really tripped me.

00:23:43.097 --> 00:23:44.559
I never even made a trig.

00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:47.005
Nope, nope, nope, nope trig chemistry.

00:23:47.085 --> 00:23:51.141
I had a hot chemistry teacher, though I was just talking to my best friend from high school about this.

00:23:51.990 --> 00:23:53.355
I failed chemistry in high school.

00:23:53.355 --> 00:23:54.317
Had to take it again.

00:23:54.838 --> 00:23:55.180
Oh my God.

00:23:55.180 --> 00:23:56.413
So our chemistry teacher.

00:23:56.413 --> 00:23:59.882
Side note, it was like his first year teaching.

00:23:59.882 --> 00:24:07.029
Mr Childs, if you're listening to this I'm sure you already realize, but anyways.

00:24:07.550 --> 00:24:13.814
I would love to know if your high school chemistry teacher listens to the podcast from 20 years.

00:24:13.814 --> 00:24:17.320
I really if he, if he has found found us here.

00:24:17.382 --> 00:24:36.068
we are very excited to have you and please welcome so he, it was like one of his first years teaching, so he wasn't that much older than us, because we were, we were seniors, right, and so he was really only like five years older than us we didn't feel that crazy this is like a book.

00:24:36.088 --> 00:24:38.258
This is one of our spicy books coming should we.

00:24:38.679 --> 00:24:56.243
So I mean he was hot, so like we definitely, and there was, like it was, chemistry, so there was a shower in the room oh yeah, oh yeah, I'll see where this is going like this joke, like we're like surely at some point we're gonna have to start a fire and mr jones is gonna anyways.

00:24:57.507 --> 00:25:15.039
Moral of the story is, at one point my friend, jennifer Lucia Rose Fiorino um, super Italian, obviously, in New York absolutely just gave up one day and took a handful of whatever we were working on and shoved it in the drain and lit it on fire and absolutely yelled fire in the hole.

00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:23.575
Wow, we had this like two hour catch up session the other day.

00:25:23.575 --> 00:25:24.557
You would love her.

00:25:24.557 --> 00:25:33.664
She's hysterical, she's like loud, she's a great athlete and she just is like one of those people who will have you peeing your pants in the first seven minutes.

00:25:33.664 --> 00:25:35.415
She's so funny.

00:25:35.415 --> 00:25:38.445
But we also there's one more story from high school.

00:25:38.445 --> 00:25:43.406
We had this friend, adam, who's obsessed with buying the lunch lady out of zebra cakes.

00:25:43.406 --> 00:25:46.221
Like it became a war between them.

00:25:46.221 --> 00:25:48.465
We would like bring money to school and his locker was-.

00:25:48.855 --> 00:25:50.580
Wait you had Debbie cakes at school.

00:25:50.580 --> 00:25:56.942
Yeah, we had like a snack shop and he was obsessed with making it, so she couldn't have any zebra cakes.

00:25:56.942 --> 00:26:00.829
I mean, this is our entire senior year spent spending money on zebra cakes.

00:26:00.829 --> 00:26:11.390
But at one point in the lunchroom somebody made a joke about Lucia's weight, which is shitty.

00:26:11.390 --> 00:26:16.586
But she stood up and she was like you want to see fat?

00:26:16.586 --> 00:26:17.541
I'll show you fat.

00:26:17.541 --> 00:26:23.765
And she took a zebra cake and smashed it into the wall, which sounds really crazy.

00:26:23.765 --> 00:26:28.362
Except she was like the best kid, like the nicest kid, like she never, ever, ever got in trouble.

00:26:28.362 --> 00:26:35.582
And her gym teacher was the lunch monitor and he was like go to the principal's office and she was like I'm not fucking going.

00:26:35.582 --> 00:26:38.646
And he was like then sit down and shut up and like this was I office.

00:26:38.646 --> 00:26:39.708
And she was like I'm not fucking going.

00:26:39.708 --> 00:26:46.433
And he was like sit down and shut up and like this was I was thinking while she was selling, reminding me that this happened, this could never happen in his school.

00:26:46.875 --> 00:26:57.239
No, they would never sell Debbie cakes or the gym teacher wouldn't be your lunch monitor, or you could never just smash a Debbie cake into the.

00:26:57.239 --> 00:26:58.700
I mean, he didn't know what to do.

00:26:58.700 --> 00:27:09.730
She was such a good kid and such a good student and she was like I'm not going, and he was like this girl is that she lit something on fire in a sink and she smashed a Debbie cake.

00:27:09.770 --> 00:27:11.031
So I ask you, was she?

00:27:11.031 --> 00:27:12.184
Was she a good kid?

00:27:12.184 --> 00:27:13.154
Is this what you?

00:27:13.154 --> 00:27:16.125
Is this what you acted like in New York?

00:27:16.125 --> 00:27:16.404
Because?

00:27:16.404 --> 00:27:17.406
Is this what you acted like in New York?

00:27:17.406 --> 00:27:20.510
Because let me tell you something that is not a South Carolina definition of a good kid.

00:27:20.510 --> 00:27:21.440
They would have hung us.

00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:24.401
You'd have been getting a paddle in the principal's office.

00:27:25.681 --> 00:27:32.883
I don't think the fire ever actually your child's ever told a soul outside of our classroom.

00:27:32.883 --> 00:27:34.480
He was such a good guy.

00:27:34.480 --> 00:27:38.980
He put the fire out and we were all laughing and no one really got in trouble.

00:27:38.980 --> 00:27:45.920
Like he was a kid, that's really, that's really impressive he totally covered for us.

00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:47.323
He was like a kid, it was funny.

00:27:48.144 --> 00:27:51.144
We do need to reminisce about high school days, although I don't I'm getting where.

00:27:51.144 --> 00:27:58.387
I don't remember a whole lot me and my girl I don't either, so this like conversation where we actually caught up on it, had me unglued.

00:27:58.387 --> 00:27:59.597
It's getting a little fuzzy.

00:27:59.597 --> 00:28:05.939
It's getting a little fuzzy for me now we're also having a normal like is that normal?

00:28:05.979 --> 00:28:08.734
I'm not one of those people who's like high school was the best time of my life.

00:28:08.734 --> 00:28:11.096
I feel like every year is the next best year.

00:28:11.096 --> 00:28:12.577
I hated high school.

00:28:13.018 --> 00:28:13.659
I didn't love it.

00:28:13.659 --> 00:28:15.661
Kids were so mean to each other.

00:28:15.881 --> 00:28:17.481
I just was so ready to get out of it.

00:28:17.701 --> 00:28:19.182
I hated being parented.

00:28:19.182 --> 00:28:20.944
I hated having any kind of authority.

00:28:21.684 --> 00:28:22.865
I was just ready to get out.

00:28:23.306 --> 00:28:28.150
Yes, I was ready to get out and YOLO, I was like nope, nope, nope, nope.

00:28:28.150 --> 00:28:30.811
I hit the door and I was like peace.

00:28:31.732 --> 00:28:39.125
I just feel like we're doing a really good job, continuing to manifest lives that just get better every year and I think we can be really proud of that.

00:28:39.125 --> 00:28:43.398
Like I would be really embarrassed to say that high school was the best years of my life.

00:28:43.398 --> 00:28:46.105
Like that statement makes me cringe so hard.

00:28:46.105 --> 00:28:47.106
Do you know what?

00:28:47.106 --> 00:28:48.836
It makes me think of what?

00:28:50.338 --> 00:28:51.942
Um, I can't.

00:28:51.942 --> 00:28:53.364
It's Napoleon.

00:28:53.364 --> 00:28:55.867
Napoleon, dad, his brother.

00:28:55.867 --> 00:28:57.869
You know what I'm talking about.

00:28:59.258 --> 00:29:00.401
Yes, with the online girlfriend.

00:29:00.580 --> 00:29:02.866
No, not Kip, Hang on a second.

00:29:02.866 --> 00:29:05.442
You know the guy.

00:29:05.442 --> 00:29:09.704
I'm the worst possible person, uncle Rico.

00:29:09.704 --> 00:29:11.167
He's like obsessed.

00:29:11.167 --> 00:29:17.685
He wants to have a time travel machine so he can go back to high school in Wednesday, because he's a football player.

00:29:17.685 --> 00:29:23.112
So when people say like, oh, high school was the best, all I'm thinking in the back of my head is Uncle Rico.

00:29:23.575 --> 00:29:24.438
So washed up.

00:29:24.438 --> 00:29:25.804
Right, so washed up.

00:29:27.175 --> 00:29:28.903
That's really unfortunate that that was your pick.

00:29:28.934 --> 00:29:34.857
I was really going to say that four years of your life, when you were a kid and barely could even do anything, that's top tier.

00:29:34.857 --> 00:29:38.086
Apparently I mean, I had fun.

00:29:40.454 --> 00:29:41.922
I mean I had a blast, but it wasn't.

00:29:41.922 --> 00:29:44.000
It just was not my fave.

00:29:44.915 --> 00:29:47.237
I would never discredit my current life in that way.

00:29:47.237 --> 00:29:50.125
Same Chad GPT.

00:29:50.934 --> 00:29:52.099
Chad GPT.

00:29:52.099 --> 00:29:55.237
We've gone a direction or 12, but check it out.

00:29:55.257 --> 00:29:55.759
Check it out.

00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:58.117
If you don't know how to use it, download the app.

00:29:58.117 --> 00:30:02.258
You can access it just from your internet browser.

00:30:02.258 --> 00:30:03.080
Let's keep it simple.

00:30:03.080 --> 00:30:05.067
It really is just ChatGPT.

00:30:05.067 --> 00:30:09.320
I love to simplify things because I feel like we talked about this the other day.

00:30:09.320 --> 00:30:11.496
Even with the podcast, we didn't realize that some people.

00:30:11.496 --> 00:30:17.227
We finally articulated the fact that not everyone realizes that podcasts are free.

00:30:17.227 --> 00:30:21.566
So I'm like we've got to go way back to basics with everything.

00:30:21.566 --> 00:30:22.474
So you can get the app for chat GPT.

00:30:22.976 --> 00:30:30.442
You can access it in your browser have it on your phone, have it on your computer, ask it things, it's just it's such a great resource.

00:30:30.855 --> 00:30:32.261
It's not going to go away.

00:30:32.261 --> 00:30:35.960
It's going to get bigger, yeah, the more you learn how to leverage it.

00:30:36.781 --> 00:30:48.941
Um and I would be honest with you if my child had homework, you better believe I would be using chat gpt to help me oh yeah so, like parents, there you go.

00:30:48.941 --> 00:30:49.563
I'm.

00:30:49.563 --> 00:30:51.748
We're helping you save one evening at a time.

00:30:51.748 --> 00:30:55.001
Enter some questions and it'll.

00:30:55.001 --> 00:30:56.424
It'll do your kids homework for you.

00:30:57.226 --> 00:31:10.457
One of my coworkers has a daughter that is in high school and she is has an AP class and it's math and it was like they had this huge test and the tests are weighted so heavily that one can really bring your grades down.

00:31:10.457 --> 00:31:12.803
But she was like, surely I can help you.

00:31:12.803 --> 00:31:17.983
She had me crying last Friday when she was telling me what she was trying to help her with.

00:31:17.983 --> 00:31:27.656
She was like, oh gosh, and the girl, the daughter I won't name names was like I think I could probably just Snapchat the smartest girl in class and ask for help, because she didn't have her phone number.

00:31:27.656 --> 00:31:41.719
So she literally Snapchatted her and for $40, this girl spent an hour that night tutoring her and she got a in the eighties grade on something she completely did not understand.

00:31:41.778 --> 00:31:45.208
And I was like this is the power of the internet.

00:31:45.208 --> 00:31:47.079
This is what we need to be using it for.

00:31:47.460 --> 00:31:48.784
Exactly, exactly.

00:31:48.784 --> 00:31:50.207
So it's not a scary thing.

00:31:50.207 --> 00:31:52.119
These new things are not a scary thing.

00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:55.836
You just have need to learn how to figure out how to use it for your benefit.

00:31:55.836 --> 00:31:58.060
I mean, I think that that's what it boils down to.

00:31:58.582 --> 00:32:11.994
Well, like everything, there are going to be people who abuse it, but there are people who abuse cars, there are people who just do things that you know, like there's a reason we have to have speed limits, there's a reason we have to have whatever.

00:32:11.994 --> 00:32:33.665
Like certainly, some of this will probably come down the road and there might be like rules or legislature or whatever, but in the meantime, if you're using it for good which I just wish we all could do a little bit more of in general um, and you stay away from the people who are either making you afraid of it or abusing it, um, I think it'll be just fine.

00:32:34.606 --> 00:32:37.077
Yeah, but we'll put a link in here so you can check it out.

00:32:37.077 --> 00:32:39.083
Ask some things.

00:32:39.083 --> 00:32:40.646
It's really it's really interesting.

00:32:40.646 --> 00:32:43.998
I highly recommend using it.

00:32:44.038 --> 00:32:46.823
The dog just got up and her tongue is so far out of her mouth.

00:32:46.823 --> 00:32:48.605
She must've been passed out so hard.

00:32:48.605 --> 00:32:50.169
It's like stuck out the side.

00:32:50.469 --> 00:32:50.809
I need.

00:32:50.809 --> 00:32:52.217
I need that kind of sleep in my life.

00:32:53.118 --> 00:33:03.473
It's just she woke me up this morning so early, and now she's been up all night, so she'll just sleep the day away.

00:33:03.473 --> 00:33:05.678
Sissy, I'm going to get a picture.

00:33:05.699 --> 00:33:08.266
All right, we're going to let you guys go.

00:33:08.266 --> 00:33:11.545
Thank you so much for tuning in and we will see you next week.
