Speaker 1:

Okay, hi everyone. Hi everyone, welcome to All About the Joy. So I sent you all the news items that I wanted to talk about, but I wanted to start off with the Drew Barrymore thing and then we'll get to the thing. A couple of questions I had, so I just want to let people know. So many people love Drew Barrymore. I don't know if everyone knows what's going on. Do you guys know what's going on with the Drew Barrymore situation? Cynthia's looking at me like maybe.

Speaker 2:

I heard about it. I know who she is.

Speaker 3:

I was actually watching Santa Clarita Diet her show that I love when I was on my phone and I was like aww, it turned it off.

Speaker 4:

Is she being what's called a scab?

Speaker 1:

She is being what's called a scab and, for those of you who may not know, and also for our podcast listeners, I'm so excited. Our numbers are crazy, awesome, so.

Speaker 1:

I had to throw that in there. Thank you for listening to the podcast and watching the show. I appreciate all of you. Shout out to LinkedIn my people. So no, nothing happened to Drew Barrymore. She is fine. Well, you know, sort of, but she's fine.

Speaker 1:

I've been saying it over and over and over again SAG AFTRA and the Writers Guild are on strike. She uses writers on her show who are part of the Writers Guild. Her show is contracted with the Writers Guild, so she is not supposed to be airing any new shows starting on Monday. Now she has made the choice to walk through that picket line anyway and that's why you're called a scab, because you're not in unity with the union you're a part of. So people are saying, well, why can the view be on right, the show, the view, and why is the show Sherry being on? So I wanted to explain that to the best of my ability. Again, I want to stress I am not part of the Writers Guild. I am part of SAG AFTRA and that's the Actors Guild. But we are in solidarity with our union sisters and brothers always. So I support the Writers Guild 150%. So here's the thing the view. If you remember how the view was established, you all know why the view became a show. Right, you guys remember who started the view, barbara Walters. The view is a broadcast journalism contract. It is not the same as being contracted with the Writers Guild, which is why the view is still airing and why the show Sherry Shepherd show is going to start on Monday. If you have writers on your show who are part of the guild, you cannot produce your show. That's the deal. And she's decided to cross the picket line.

Speaker 1:

Unfortunately and here's my issue with it, which I haven't heard a lot of people talk about it. Maybe this is my personal bitch and I'm just going to say it straight up like this I'm a huge fan of Steven Spielberg. Everybody knows this, right, andrea. So because I'm going to talk about Andrea's favorite movie, et. So you've never seen it, but that's where Drew Barrymore we first saw her as a little kid. You know what I mean. She's just adorable, whatever. Now, the reason why I bring this up is most people don't understand that the Barrymore name. Drew Barrymore is Hollywood royalty, not because she was in ET when she was a kid. Her great grandfather, her grandfather, her father, her mother, even, I believe all of the Barrymores have been in Hollywood since like the beginning of time, and she grew up in the union system, and that's what I'm pissed about. She has benefited from every union privilege possibility, so she knows exactly what she's doing.

Speaker 4:

So she knows better, basically.

Speaker 1:

She knows better. But I'm angry about it because if she really cared about her crew like that's her argument she wants to show to go on so she can pay them. Go into your little trust fund and pay them. Do you know what I mean? Go into all the other ways that creative people are trying. I mean, you see, all the late night show hosts are doing the podcast and all the money that they're raising from that. They're using it to pay their staff and they're also paying out of their own pocket. You know there are creative ways to do it and still it doesn't matter, even if they went without pay.

Speaker 1:

There's a bigger picture we're all going without pay. I'm going to lose a couple of my jobs. I've already been, you know, kind of downsized in some of the work that I do, which has nothing to do with my SAG after union job. It has everything to do with the fact that I work for post production houses, you know, because we're not getting any work. So we're all suffering. So I just wanted to give people an update on that. I don't know if any of you have any questions, but you can see how angry I am.

Speaker 4:

I mean, yeah, it's like it's not like she's new, Like you said, her whole family, from generations you know, have been in this and it's like a slap in the face, you know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 3:

I just didn't. I mean, I get that she says she's doing you know what. I don't even know what she actually said, but I theoretically it's like I don't want my people to be out of work, right, my team, my crew, whatever. But like neither does anybody else, right, I was just helping with their writing for, yeah, like long term, how is it? And just like it's kind of shocking to me. Honestly, it really is like, yeah, how is this ultimately going to benefit her long run, like people are pissed.

Speaker 1:

They're so mad. And also people like Matthew McConaughey, tina Fey, people who are booked on her show have now canceled. They're not going to be on the show because they could have gone on the show. You know what I mean If she was a struck it's called a struck show. So they've canceled for future engagements.

Speaker 1:

And yeah, I think the weird thing about it is and I'm going to say this and then we're going to move on. I don't want to hear nothing bad about Keanu Reeves. Okay, so, because she was kind of like the girl of Keanu Reeves you know what I mean Like we just loved her bubbly, smart, cool, fun, whatever. She seemed to have no big issues. She had that one playboy thing. That happened back in the day when she was younger, and I don't know what that was about. But you know, we all make mistakes when we're young. I mean, some mistakes are worse than others. I don't have a playboy spread anywhere, so bad, but I just really was. I wish it was not on my bingo card is what I'm saying? Drew Barrymore becomes the scab.

Speaker 3:

I'm telling you, I was literally watching her show Like a rewatch, because I think it's funny. Yeah, I was on my phone and I read it and I was like oh shit, and I turned off the show.

Speaker 2:

I was like I can't believe this.

Speaker 3:

This is crazy yeah.

Speaker 4:

It isn't going to hurt for future too. Like who's going to want to put her in a movie now.

Speaker 1:

I mean, and anybody who goes on the show, who's an actor or a writer or whatever, there also be scabs too, so they're not going to go on our show, right? You know, I personally think and I hate thinking this way but now that I feel this way about her, it kind of makes sense. She was probably worried that she was going to lose a lot of ratings because Sherry's show and, I think, jennifer Hudson shows are the only two shows that are going to be airing because they're under broadcast journalist shows, and I think that's her competition, not the view, because the view is a different kind of show. You know what I mean. So I that is also just like. That's pathetic, because if you want to take care of your people, by the way, the writers were all picketing her show, like people from her own show were picketing her show. So I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Anyways, I just wanted to explain the difference because some people didn't know that I wrote some stuff on people's streams on Facebook and it was kind of nice because people were writing like a lot of stuff and they were like, you know, because people love Drew Barrymore, so they were like sticking up for her, and I was like, look at, this isn't about that, and I explained this and then it was kind of interesting to have people be like oh, thank you, we didn't know that part, we didn't know the differences in the contracts, you know whatever, and like so that's the other part I want to say.

Speaker 1:

if you don't know what you're talking about, maybe there's a thing called Google, and you know why don't we kind of think about the most positive things in people, not always assume that everyone is trying to fight and argue for no reason? You know this idea that somehow anybody would hate her and just have to go after her because we hate her. That's not what's happening, you know. So I thought that was weird too, like people were like hating on SAG. It's so weird like and I'm sorry the writer's guilt she's actually not violating anything regarding SAG after because she's not working as an actor.

Speaker 3:

But still, I think that's part. That's like people you know, like you said, people love her, so it's like really disappointing.

Speaker 1:

I'm telling you, put Keanu Reeves and bubble wrap, keep them away from anything. I don't want to hear nothing about him. I don't, I'm never going to do anything.

Speaker 2:

Let's have a moment of break.

Speaker 1:

We love Keanu.

Speaker 3:

We need somebody to be the wholesome awesome.

Speaker 4:

I loved him even more when I found out he's part Portuguese I was like yes, he's not even related. He never know 23 of me.

Speaker 1:

Maybe he's done it.

Speaker 4:

Never know.

Speaker 1:

Never know, all right. So I set you all kind of little list of things that we might talk about. This was my what story in the news, in your personal life or work life that gave you pause. Good or bad, that really was mine this past week that really bumped me out. I didn't know if any of you had something you wanted to share.

Speaker 4:

I was like oh, I'm going to be a great grandson.

Speaker 2:

I was born, yay, congrats Wait a minute. Which child Xavier had a boy, and what did we name him? I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Xavion.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

Wow, are we going to call him X.

Speaker 2:

Probably I kind of like Kyro. I might call him Kyro.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I like that better. Let's not call him X, because that just reminds me of Elon.

Speaker 3:

now, so what did that happen? Congratulations, how long ago.

Speaker 2:

Tuesday, so two days ago, oh my.

Speaker 1:

God, yes, did you go?

Speaker 2:

see him. We did, he's so cute. Lot of hair.

Speaker 1:

Curly hair. Wait, did you post the pictures on Facebook?

Speaker 2:

No, no, no, Didn't post any pictures yet. Oh, not posting pictures yet.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay, okay, I just want to make sure.

Speaker 2:

Wow Okay.

Speaker 1:

I can't believe you're a grandmother. That don't even make no sense. Yeah, whatever.

Speaker 3:

That's hard to say, rick. I don't really have anything super exciting. I will say just not to like turn it all towards work, but I was prepared for a pretty rough week here and it turned out pretty good. So I feel I'm tired as hell, but I feel a lot better than I did a week ago. So that's when you come home. I leave tomorrow at 5.20 am Central time. So, okay, no, no, I'm getting up early. Yes, yes, last impact, last, no, it was two months ago when I couldn't be on the show because of the whole flight situation. Uh-huh, I missed the flight. I was late and I missed the flight and I had to stay in the airport for like six hours to catch the next flight. Anyway, so I will be there really freaking early tomorrow. The one thing you don't want to do is miss your flight out of Cedar Rapids.

Speaker 1:

Yeah Well, you don't want to go to Cedar Rapids. If you don't have to, it's probably.

Speaker 3:

It's actually a really nice here right now. The weather is totally perfect.

Speaker 1:

I've been to Iowa twice. I don't think I'm having, I haven't need to go again and again I asked you did you go see Field of Dreams, Right, Did you go?

Speaker 2:

see it.

Speaker 1:

And you did it.

Speaker 3:

I don't know what that I mean. I know there's the movie, but I don't know what the thing is. Okay, I wouldn't even know. My daughter sent me a list of the biggest truck stop in the United States. I was like requested that I go and get her like a key chain.

Speaker 2:

I was like you can get it at the airport.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you can get me a Cedar Rapids t-shirt that I will never wear.

Speaker 4:

That reminds me I did end up with last time we talked about Field of Dreams and Andrea was here. You guys said that you like. Andrea said she liked the movie where he was like a government thing and it has like a twist ending.

Speaker 2:

No way out, no way out.

Speaker 4:

I did watch that. I was like, oh yeah, that was good. I didn't expect that ending at all.

Speaker 3:

That's a great movie, right, yeah, but you should. That's one of those. If I come across it, I will always stop and read it.

Speaker 1:

The movie is no way out. It's one of Kevin Costner's first films. It's really great, in case you don't know what it is, but it's so weird because you won't see Field of Dreams because of Kevin Costner. I love you. I love you. You're so crazy.

Speaker 4:

I guess Bodyguard is out too, then I guess.

Speaker 1:

Oh, did you see the Bodyguard? I've seen Bodyguard. Yeah, I mean it's pretty how can you not?

Speaker 3:

There has to be something to balance him out and I got nothing. I mean, the last time you were like it's about Father's and Son's.

Speaker 1:

I said James Earl Jones, that's all I said, and you were like, no, no, no. I said James Earl Jones, and you had a little pause. You didn't know he was in it. I decided that's not enough. Oh my God, you know what I'm going to do. I'm going to get Andrea. I'm going to call her and be like, oh my God, I'm not feeling good.

Speaker 1:

Could you come over for the movie and then have her sit down and tie her down and make her see ET Field of Dreams. You know what I mean. I'm going to make her watch it.

Speaker 3:

I know her well enough that, even if she's like feeding me, like potato chips in the wine, so I have a positive connotation.

Speaker 1:

I really believe if you watch the. I know you're never gonna, but if you did watch them you would actually like them. That's the weird thing.

Speaker 3:

I know what. I'll be honest with you. I think I probably would. I'm just being like a total contrary.

Speaker 2:

Pain in the ass about it.

Speaker 1:

Best friend. Remember last week people were having that conversation, best friend. Andrea, you didn't see the funny clips man, but we'll talk about that in a minute. I want to see what Rick's thing is for his news of the week, if he got something.

Speaker 4:

So this will be personal experience. It's going to be weird, but I was going to tell you about this dream I had. It was so weird. Oh, okay, calm down, okay, anyway, no, and I'm like and I totally blame Carmen and all these actors have been watching on podcasts and stuff for this dream. So in this dream my friend got me a part in something and so I'm at the side over here like reading my lines, trying to learn everything and I'm not up yet at all, but my friend and some other guy they're practicing, basically, and I guess the directors with them, and I'm like flipping the pages, and all of a sudden the director goes do I hear flipping pages? We're trying to work over here. What are you doing? I was like, and my friend was like let's go away, go away to the bathroom today.

Speaker 4:

I was like what the heck? And then it switched into walking down the street and some guy his nose was running and he kept bothering me and he's like do you know where there's tissues? I'm like find a pharmacy, I don't know. Then I'm crossing the street and like a Winnebago thing is like coming down and I'm crossing the street he was going so fast he almost hit me and then me I turn around and go hey, we're walking here like in a new accent and I'm like, okay, rick is officially crazy.

Speaker 1:

I think, I think you know, I think I know why you had that dream. Actually, because we've been analyzing a couple of shows over and over again on Instagram and we've been talking about their acting abilities back and forth and we were really analyzing it was sci-fi, stargate, I don't know what but we've been really going back and forth watching different clips. So I think that's stuck in the back of your head, but do you secretly want to be an actor?

Speaker 4:

Maybe I don't know. He's never tried it. He's never tried it.

Speaker 1:

It's a really easy thing to get into, so just yeah, no, it's not.

Speaker 4:

And now is the best time to get into it Apparently.

Speaker 1:

No, I mean you could scab if you want. I mean that's kind of one of the hard things that's happening right now. It's interesting to watch people on TikTok because a lot of the influencers and a lot of the people that want to be actors who are non-union, are being approached by producers, by movie studios or whatever, and they're you know they're like they could. They're getting what they think is a lot of money to help promote or do certain things for these studios. And then you see other people who are not even part of the studio system, like some of the film critics on there. On TikTok there are some pretty amazing young people who have been doing film criticism, television criticism, and they have stopped. They were making income doing it and they've stopped doing their TikToks in solidarity with an industry that they're not even really a part. They are because they do the critical. You don't even mean like it's just an amazing thing to watch.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, I've seen because I watch a lot of Marvel related YouTubers, whatever. And there's some that they do review everything that comes out, but they're like, you know what we're going to follow the rules. We're not going to talk about this yeah they're like wow and they're not part of.

Speaker 1:

DGA they're not part of. Yeah, I mean, I feel like that kind of integrity is what we're missing in our world right now, and to see it happening, especially on TikTok with all these people, is pretty amazing. And of course, then there are the idiots who are being scabs. But you know, people got to do what they got to do. I don't care if you're not part of the union or part of the industry and you making some choices. I care because I will never support you, but at least that's a little bit more understanding, because you don't understand what you're doing. You know what I mean, but people were in the industry into making that choice. No, okay, let's have this fight. This is actually. Ted sent me a text about iPhone. I guess iPhone has come out again with a new phone that you all have to buy. So who has an iPhone? I know Andrea has an iPhone. Oh, in the house, the rest of us all Android. So are you getting the latest iPhone?

Speaker 3:

No, the way I do it is well. I wouldn't say this is regular. I mean, I use my phones for years and then when I it's time for me to buy, I will buy like two or three generations. You know old, right Number one I don't want to get the new phone because I don't know what the hell's wrong with it. Right, you always find out later, so I'm not going to be all like huh first and why, really, is that true with iPhones? I think with anything I do that with anything. I don't want any device of anything, the what, what's, cynthia?

Speaker 2:

That's any device. Anything that comes out brand new. There's always going to be some glitches with it because it's brand new. They're still figuring it out, okay.

Speaker 3:

I like that, with all you know, any, like you said, any kind of device, gadget, whatever, like I don't want to be the tester, just somebody else. Work out all the kinks and then I'll come by.

Speaker 1:

How would you spend thousands of dollars on a new phone and be a tester is why I've never had a problem with any new phone I bought.

Speaker 3:

People just like to, you know, have the new thing. I mean, they have those, those like packages where you just, or whatever, like subscriptions. I guess it would be where you just constantly, forever pay like $200 a month or something like that. You know, the same way that you would if you were like financing your phone through the, through the, you know, like Verizon or T-Mobile, and then you will automatically get the new one every time. I'm like that's whatever. Oh yeah, no I don't know these cars, I just don't get it.

Speaker 1:

So Melanie just had. I currently have an iPhone eight plus and a 12 mini. I don't even know what that means. This new iPhone 15 may cause me to go back to Android.

Speaker 4:

Come on, come on back.

Speaker 1:

Look at here. Here's what I wanted to say. So I've never owned an Apple, anything or iPhone, and I am someone and I think Andrea and Cynthia both know this I really never want anything everybody else has. That's my thing.

Speaker 1:

I always think it's weird, like I remember people waiting in line for phones and I was like it's just not that important to me, I'm just going to be like I'm better, whatever, I'm just lazy. I don't want to wait in line for tickets for to see concerts. I don't want to wait. I don't this, the bougie part, the bougie part that is coming out. I just don't have the tolerance for it. And also I always get worried when masses of people are doing something together, like I want to wait and see what happens and then I'll decide. You know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

So I'm stuck with my rotary phone, I know, but here's what I wanted to tell people, because people are really I'm not going to say, confused, but I don't think people understand this. So I pulled this today off of stat counter and this is a web analytics platform that you can go and they analyze everything. 70% of the world uses androids, android base phones. It's only in the United States where the market share is 56% for iPhones here in the United States. So I always find that so weird that iPhone people tend to be so weirdly snooty about everything regarding iPhone. And now I just read this morning iPhone is going back to the. I thought this was a stupid thing, but they're going back to the regular jack that everybody else uses.

Speaker 4:

All their phones the USB-C yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they didn't even know they didn't have that. I had no idea. So you're saying Andrea couldn't come to my house and use my jack to power her phone?

Speaker 3:

No, no, well, like so. I learned how to use a computer on an Apple computer and then I had to use, you know, whatever windows or whatever they're called. Windows would be correct. I went back to Apple after that. So I'm just an Apple person, I just like it, I'm comfortable with it. You know, I have all Apple devices, whatever. But, for example, I was out here at this event and I had some slides on my computer. I can't plug it into the thing to show my slides on the, because it's all the jacks are not compatible.

Speaker 1:

Even your computer has a different jack. Oh, that's just stupid. Are you serious? I did not know. Okay, you're saying you have a special computer and but their regular Mac computer would fit any.

Speaker 3:

Oh no, no, you have to have. If you have a Mac generally, you yourself have to probably bring a special adapter. You know like what is it?

Speaker 1:

HDMI? There's no.

Speaker 3:

HDMI, wow. So you have to have an adapter that you bring with you and maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. If you forget it, like I do, then you're screwed. You got to have somebody else put the slides up.

Speaker 1:

I think Steve Jobs was a genius I do and I think Apple has propelled us. There's no denying the contribution Apple has made to our world. I'm not denying that. I just have always found it this weird thing it reminds me of and I know this is like a weird analogy it's always reminded me of like frat, you know, like fraternities on campus, like if you're not, or sororities if you're not in with the cool people, then you can't be. And I've always felt that way about people obsessed with their iPhones and their Macs. You know, like their Apple products. It's a weird, weird, glitchy thing, you know. And here's the other thing, I'm late to the game. I had no idea that when you have an Apple phone, an iPhone, that when somebody texts you from another iPhone you can see them like you're on WhatsApp. I did not know that. I like that. If Cynthia sends me a text message, she don't know if I'm answering her or not. Just the wait till it comes. You can do that speech or on and off.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, mine is off.

Speaker 3:

You get the dots right, it's like three dots. That means that they're texting and then you'll be waiting and then the dots will go away. That would give me anxiety. It does, I know it does.

Speaker 1:

It's a whole thing, like on WhatsApp that does that too. Like on what you know what I mean, but I don't you know.

Speaker 4:

Even DMing on Instagram. It does that. You can see. Oh, they're getting ready to type something.

Speaker 1:

Right, yeah. Anyway, I just thought it was an interesting statistic that you know iPhones. I think it's the. I just hate the kind of weirdness when it comes to Macs and iPhones and my clients all use Macs and I, you know that's the other thing too. Like I use Word on a Mac, it's not really any different than a Word. You know Word program on. The only thing I don't like is that you know it says you just kind of change some things around when you're trying to move files around and stuff, but it's not a big deal. Melanie said a flip phone is still on the table. She also said I recently found out that Apple and Android text messages are different colors, are they? Yeah, yeah, so if I send you a message, it's different than if somebody who?

Speaker 3:

comes out green.

Speaker 1:

So those are the jokes. Those are the jokes.

Speaker 3:

This is. Can you see that?

Speaker 1:

Nope, we just see white. What?

Speaker 3:

do you call it An Apple message? So it's blue with someone else who has an iPhone and it comes out. The message is green If it's Android.

Speaker 1:

You can't change the colors, like, for example, if Cynthia is, I have. Cynthia is like a magenta purple, so when she responds, you know what I mean, and then I have like yellow, for like my clients, I have. You can't do it that way.

Speaker 3:

I don't think so. I mean, if you can, I don't know how to do that Okay, my kids are like yeah, please, yes, you can, but I don't know how to do it, can I?

Speaker 1:

change the subject a little bit, though. Here's the other thing I can't stand about customer service. Just because I went and bought something doesn't mean I want to give you a motherfucking survey. You know what I mean. Like, have you guys noticed that I'm really sick and tired of like? I go into a store, I buy something, like I bought socks. Okay, I'm going to tell you what I bought. I bought socks, but they're compression socks for running and because I'm walking harder nowadays, I don't know. But I bought compression socks because my, ever since my surgery, my right calf bothers me a lot and the compression socks help when I'm trying to go up the stairs and running and not running walking when I'm working out. And I got a survey, can you please take two minutes to fill up the surveys and let us know? And I was like there's socks, like I got two pairs of socks. I haven't even worn them yet, so annoying I don't feel them out.

Speaker 4:

I get that I work with a company I call, which I kind of call. I have to call them often, but they're always like oh, would you mind? There's a survey at the end, can you just do this? So it rates me, rate me, blah, blah, blah, blah. So I'm like all right, one, if it's bad five, it's really good. And I'm like five, five, five, are we?

Speaker 1:

done. I don't do the money anymore. I don't do the money.

Speaker 4:

But my thing is time is money. You want me to take my time to stop what I'm doing, to do something for you. What am I getting?

Speaker 1:

What they're doing. They've gone the other extreme. But, cynthia, you were gonna say something. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2:

Oh no, even pharmacies. And now just starting to do it. My pharmacy sent me a survey today that I just picked up my medication. Oh, it tells how my service was. I'm like really, you call me five million times during the week to remind me my prescription's ready, and now you want me to do a survey.

Speaker 1:

I think they've gone from one extreme to the other, but it's annoying, you know what I mean. Like before, you could never, ever talk to anybody without jumping hoops. You know what I mean. And now they've gone the other extreme where they're just doing this statistical stuff.

Speaker 3:

That's a new way to measure so that they can hire fire. Whatever you know, I got one paying a bill. I was like I don't wanna be here any longer than I need to.

Speaker 2:

I'm wondering what everybody's gonna say but I will tell you I don't wanna pay this anymore.

Speaker 3:

I don't wanna pay this anymore.

Speaker 1:

But the Cinnas are a utility company and they have these constant surveys about their new website. You paid your bill today. Would you like to? Could you do a survey? I'm like, are you out of your mind?

Speaker 3:

I literally don't give a single crap about your website.

Speaker 4:

I don't give a slide, I mean it used to be like you get a receipt and like do the survey and you get a free sandwich or whatever, like the food place, and I'm like, hey, if it's free, it's for me, I'm gonna do that one, but that's what I'm saying. What do I get?

Speaker 2:

out of it.

Speaker 3:

What do I get out of?

Speaker 2:

it.

Speaker 4:

I'm doing this work for you. You're not even your employee.

Speaker 1:

So I'm cracking up with Rick. Rick is like, if it's free, I'll do it, that's awesome. Yeah, no, I look at, I think they're trying, but I think it's the wrong way to do it. And the other thing is too like. Today I called pavilions. Okay, I'll tell you what happened. I went to pavilions, which is a grocery store here in California, and I wanted deli meats because I was craving a sandwich. So I got how do you say, mortadella, mortadella, right, okay, whatever, it's like baloney, but not Okay, so that's what it is. So I got mortadella and I came home and when I went to make my little sandwich, the wrapping was still, so they sliced it without the wrapping taken down. And this is like the third time this has happened. And here's this is gonna sound bougie, I threw it out. I can't eat it.

Speaker 3:

I can't do it. I was just closing my head. I was like she did not eat that. No, I did not.

Speaker 1:

I was just like no, no, and if I had had time I would have gone back and brought it back. You know what I mean. But yeah, so I called them. I tried to go online to do just the thing to let them know what was going on, and then it wouldn't submit, it, wouldn't let me send it. So I was like you know what I'm a call, so I cause I thought it'd be like five minutes. I just wanted to let them know I don't need to refund nothing.

Speaker 1:

It's just that's dangerous, and what I was trying to say to them is one of the things that they do that I can't stand is there's not enough people there, so they're always rushing and they're not paying attention. So like, if you get cheese, they don't put wax between the cheese, and so then you get home and I live five minutes from the grocery store Okay, and it's mold, it's all like a glob of cheese when you get home. You know what I mean. So I was like you know what I'm done. This is like the third or fourth time I've come home from the deli place. I'm going to complain, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then the woman wanted to talk for so long, and you know how I say that that's bad cause I talk a lot. You know what I mean. I was just like, let's just do that. She's like would you mind doing a survey after I just tell me how I did I was like oh, my God.

Speaker 2:

I was like I even do.

Speaker 1:

All I wanted was a sandwich. It was a sandwich, yeah, anyways. Yeah, all right. Well, whatever, what can you do? You know what I mean. And Sink is getting back together. I know you're all big fans. I'm sure Andrea will be going to see that show. Is anyone a fan here of NSink? It used to be.

Speaker 3:

I don't know which ones they are.

Speaker 4:

I get them confused too. I'm like Backstreet Boys. That's the buy, buy buy, buy.

Speaker 1:

Right, that's them. The buy, buy, buy people. They're the. What's the lead singer's name? You know, he's the one that with Janet.

Speaker 2:

Jackson Justin.

Speaker 1:

Timberlake, justin.

Speaker 4:

Timberlake.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah, yeah yeah, janet Jackson Boobie. Okay, yeah, he's the lead singer.

Speaker 4:

That's how we remembered the Boobie incident.

Speaker 1:

I'm not an NSink person and I'm not a Backstreet Boys, but NSink are the dancing ones. Backstreet Boys are the ones that actually, I guess, can sing, and then New Kids on the Block. I have to like because we all know why.

Speaker 4:

What about Manudo? Just kidding, I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2:

Manudo, I'm just kidding. Oh cool Wow.

Speaker 1:

Just kidding. They're older than we are. I think I'm just kidding. No, but I think those were the three. My apologies for saying it this way. Those were like the three white boy bands of the?

Speaker 3:

What was it? Nsink, Backstreet Boys and what else? New Kids on the Block.

Speaker 1:

Oh right, okay, yeah and yeah. So New Kids on the Block are from Boston. It's all over TikTok. I can't imagine how many people are like they're all every. I was like I'm in the wrong TikTok area. It's just all about NSink. Yeah, all right. Signs are getting older.

Speaker 3:

I told him training about surveys.

Speaker 1:

So I was reading this awesome story about Cheryl B Routh, actress, and I'm like this is such a good article, it's so good, she's amazing, she's great. I'm like what is this magazine I'm reading? It's my subscription to AAR.

Speaker 2:

That's funny.

Speaker 4:

That is funny.

Speaker 3:

It was assholes. I started to get like mail from them, I don't know, maybe like five, 10 years, and I was like no.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but you know, but we all signed up when that young kid on TikTok. Of course I did, we all did. Okay, no, no.

Speaker 4:

Listen every time I stand up what I said. Every time I stand up and I hear a snap crackle pop.

Speaker 1:

I know I'm old, I'm just saying Now I'm critical, oh, because your bones or whatever, no-transcript. But that young man on TikTok he was I don't know. He was like in his 20s or something, I think maybe early 30s, but he was talking about all the savings he's been having. Because AARP is actually, you can't discriminate, so there actually is no age level. So now all of the Gen Z people all have AARP cards because, yes, and they're going to restaurants and they can't be denied Because it's not an age thing Wow, kind of saved that money, but it's smart.

Speaker 1:

I have saved so much.

Speaker 4:

I don't blame them.

Speaker 1:

I'm doing it, so it's $16 a year or something $12,. Did you get a free gift with your subscription? You know what? I did not, but I got a whole bunch of points and every time you walk or you can put your Fitbit to it and you exercise, you get points to it. And, like, I send flowers to people a lot Well, some people because I realized no one here has gotten flowers for you. I'm sorry.

Speaker 1:

It's a work related thing, work related thing, and you get so many savings. And then there are restaurants you can go to and you get savings. I'm all in it now. I'm all in it. That's like my favorite app on here AARP. We've been thinking about their phone. They got a phone, aarp, which I like I just put that on right.

Speaker 2:

Everyone's like hey.

Speaker 4:

My mom. I got her from Consumer Cellular. She got a phone for her from there and it automatically came with the AARP app. I was like, oh, let me check this out. And I signed it with my. Ms and so yeah.

Speaker 1:

You should sign up for it. Rick is always blaming his mama for everything he's doing personally. He's like it was for my mom. I'm like it's for my mom. Ok, Other things that make you feel old, good or bad. I don't think it's a bad thing. By the way, I thought that was a good thing, I will tell you.

Speaker 3:

So I took one of my daughters to the doctor just a regular thing, and they wanted me to do all the paperwork and all of that stuff on their app. Oh yeah, now let me tell you I'm not downloading another app for the rest of my life, literally. Pardon me, but fuck you. If you want me to download another app, I'm not doing it. I am not doing it.

Speaker 1:

You are going to do it one other place. I'm going to guarantee you're going to do it.

Speaker 3:

Until I was walking in and I told her. I was like I know I sound like an old Karen, but I am not. I'm owning another goddamn app, did you really? Oh, my god, mama, and I didn't. I was like, and I was at the desk and I was like I'm not.

Speaker 1:

OK. When I recently went to get my latest Botox right, I went to this new place and they handed me an iPad, which I don't use, and they were like, could you just fill out the documents on here? And I was like OK. And then I was like how do I do? I just use my finger. And they're like, yeah, just use it, because I'm used to a stylus, you know what I mean. But they're like you just use your finger. I'm like that's weird. And then the keyboard's not a keyboard. It's like I'm like, yeah, no, I don't even feel old.

Speaker 3:

I just think that's stupid, what I don't even know really how to use one. They're different.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because it's just the pad, Like they give you just this. There's no stylus, but you know whatever.

Speaker 2:

I'm at my job.

Speaker 1:

You use them at your job.

Speaker 4:

My mom has the hardest time signing those, because when we had people coming in for physical therapy, they're like oh, just sign here. You want me to do it, I could do it. Ok, you're going to be here for five minutes doing over and over again.

Speaker 2:

Do you hear what you hear? No, you know what it is. You know what it is. You're mom, all right.

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

So my co-worker has the same problem. She's an older woman and now we have to like this touch screen where we clock in. And she's the only one that has a problem with it. And apparently, as you get older, the skin on your fingers gets very soft so it's harder for you to use any type of touch screen. So a lot of the older people have problems.

Speaker 1:

Maybe you guys can clean your touch screen and it'll be easier. Oh, we clean it every time For every new person. That's what you mean Really, that's a problem with your finger.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so they have trouble using the touch screen.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean. Look it. I have trouble using it because I just don't like it. So I just don't. I like something more tactile. I still use People make fun of me. I have my laptop and I still. I have a travel mouse with me. I do not use that screen thing at the bottom. Never have I. You know what I mean. You know how people use the tracking thing. I've never. I always use a mouse. So I just think it's just not something I'm used to. Yeah, I don't know if it's being old, but yeah, I guess so. So now my fingers get. So what's happening to my fingers? Again, I'm confused. When I get older, it gets softer, softer, so then I can't touch a screen.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's almost like you're like. I don't know what it is.

Speaker 3:

It's just, if your fingers are too soft, the screen will, I'm like you know what I just like I try to get that you don't have the moisture for it to be as like. I'm not sure, dang, it's too moist?

Speaker 2:

Yes, like I don't know what it is. Have you ever touched, like a very old person's hand, how it's very soft, mine, mine, is very soft, hey, hey.

Speaker 1:

if that's one of the things of being old, I'm all for that.

Speaker 3:

So my fingers getting softer. I'll do that After all this.

Speaker 1:

After all. So getting older you get softer scared.

Speaker 4:

Can you sign on this thing? No, I got old people fingers. I can't.

Speaker 1:

I know my hands are too. I'm not going to say like that my hands are really, really soft. I can't touch that screen.

Speaker 3:

I'm using that. That's what I'm using. My hands are so soft I'm going to need a small boujee.

Speaker 1:

It's just too soft. It's not going to work on the screen.

Speaker 4:

Trust me, after all, I'm going to be like my cousin. My cousin got COVID last time. He did that. I don't trust that. No, I ain't doing that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, I mean I like that we're getting away from paper, I guess in that sense, but I really hate those things too. Any other signs of you getting old?

Speaker 4:

I can't see on my I have to get one of these. What's that? Oh, blood pressure.

Speaker 1:

Oh Wait, what is it? You have to take your blood pressure, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Just to monitor it.

Speaker 1:

But is that because you're getting older? Yeah, ok, but I've never had to monitor my blood pressure. Well, I'm asking you, should I be? I'm like, could you?

Speaker 2:

Well, no, because my blood pressure is a little high, so I just want to keep track of it. So you have to keep track of it.

Speaker 1:

So what are the things that they do that they tag you? That's not blood pressure.

Speaker 2:

No, that's diabetes. That's diabetes.

Speaker 1:

There's commercials all the time when they put the thing like that All right. Well, that sucks. That was a downer thing, Not a good thing. How is your blood pressure today? That was a good, it's good, ok, good oh.

Speaker 4:

I like it. I'm on Facebook, I'm on Instagram. For some reason, I keep getting these things. You know you're old. If you know what this is I'm like. Oh see, I know what that is, I'm old man. This sucks.

Speaker 1:

Melanie, I'm so sorry. With all the walking I do at work, I should subscribe to. You know what you should subscribe because there's a lot of things based on where you live. So I live in California and based in Los Angeles. There's a lot of restaurants or a lot of different places, but then there's also things across the country you can get. So if you order flowers or whatever from 1-800-Flowers or whatever it is, you get all these discounts and it's free. And yeah, you should definitely do it. I have no affiliation to AARP, but I just learned something. I think we all have that stigma in our head that AARP is for old people but they just advocate for older citizens. We're at the one hour mark Wow time. We don't have to stop. But do you guys have anything else you want to share? Andrea missed a really funny episode last week when we were talking about friends. Her name was brought up like 1 million times.

Speaker 4:

Uh-oh, best best friend.

Speaker 1:

Best best friend. I was saying that you are my best friend, and I guess one of the clips I put up which was really funny was Cynthia asked this question like but do our best friends think that there are best friends too? Right, cynthia? That's what you asked, that you're there, best friend.

Speaker 1:

That you're there there, best friend, and I said, even if I'm not I'm going to make you be I'm going to ask you. You know what I mean. You have to see the clip. It's very funny, but it was very funny. But I also mentioned that I knew that Leslie was your best friend and that I'm nothing I'm not really, I'm like below her, and then I was crying on the show. It was really sad.

Speaker 2:

We're not On the inside.

Speaker 1:

Carmen, do you and Andrea sing?

Speaker 3:

Every time we hang up we say, we sing ourselves out.

Speaker 1:

Right, I don't think I could do that. Rick, sing it ring.

Speaker 4:

You're the singer here, but I like, I like when that's especially on tiktok they take that one, that one guy Extra, mimicking him, like that's hilarious.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that is my foot and then he takes off his wig and you know what we're talking about, right, yeah?

Speaker 3:

yeah.

Speaker 1:

We'll sing it and then we'll have Rick do the the other parts. I can't so funny, oh my god. So, all right, we're at the one hour four minute mark and I have to tell you it, as much as I enjoy doing those clips I'm up all day and all night on the weekend doing it so until I can afford Once I start.

Speaker 1:

Oh wait, let me just say a few things. You know what the website is up new, I think, rick, you've seen it. Cynthia, you said you're gonna see it, but you did it, rick, you liked it right.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

The website is finalized and up. Please go check out all about the joycom and was forgot the name of my own show.

Speaker 1:

There's a blog post, there's a podcast, there are clips up there. I'm going to have swag in the next couple weeks. I just got the okay from our lawyer and we're gonna definitely have mugs and t-shirts to start, a, maybe a tote bag and Thank you. Yeah, please go check out the website. I could really use the clicks. Just go check it out, look at it. There's a a small blog. I'm just gonna do a blog there once a month, just like a paragraph or whatever. Yeah, what?

Speaker 4:

could you do the thing at the bottom with the website so people could remember if I could find it, I would have.

Speaker 1:

But it's all about the joy calm. Everybody knows that, right, babies? I don't know what it is on my screen at the moment, but listen, I'm really excited about doing this and I'm really excited that so many people are being so supportive. I didn't think it was gonna be like this. I didn't. I thought it was gonna take much longer, but I'm really really happy and we'll have swag in the next couple weeks and I hope you'll all Bear with me as I walk through this.

Speaker 1:

But what I'm gonna offer is I'm gonna offer shirts and cups, and $5 of every purchase item is going to go to a charity of my choice, and I've discussed with a few people what the first charity is, but I'm not ready to announce it yet and I don't think I want to make big bucks, but I want all about the joy to be an avenue where we help other people and where we spread joy as much as possible. So anything we sell here is not necessarily for profit, but it's for helping other people as well. Don't get me wrong. I'm gonna need some money, but you know, I really, really, really want to do some cool swag so that you guys will enjoy wearing it. You know, carmen is sending out swag for visiting your website. While under armor shirts, what?

Speaker 4:

is he? He's just trying to be funny.

Speaker 1:

Did I miss this? I don't get jokes a lot.

Speaker 4:

That's why you don't love Lucy.

Speaker 1:

Okay, we gotta talk about this for a moment. Do you know how many people at Measley M's no. I'm not even kidding, because I love. Lucy.

Speaker 4:

Wow, we're by Andrea.

Speaker 3:

Carmen, carmen, all of the shit you give me for all of these movies. Have you ever seen I Love Lucy, not a full episode? No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1:

I've never seen a full episode. It's not my thing.

Speaker 2:

We talked about it a lot, and now you can strap her down to a chair.

Speaker 1:

Wait a minute.

Speaker 3:

Watched. I Love Lucy. I will say I didn't really love it, I totally get that? How do you not have watched it?

Speaker 1:

Because it wasn't my thing. Okay, the other thing I got yelled at before was one of my clients back in the day I'm gonna say her name, Kim Dower, Because she's on my Facebook page and she got mad at me not mad, but she was totally surprised because I couldn't name all the Beatles. She was like Shocked and I was like I know one died. I was like he's just letting it right, but it was just so weird that she got so upset with me about it. But that's how this was.

Speaker 3:

People were not upset, they were shocked and like I'm shocked just because, like it's entertainment, it's classic television. Even like she's a woman in the entertainment industry, it seems to go together. So that's what's shocking about it. Like the Beatles, I understand. I don't. You know, that seems to not be like I get that.

Speaker 1:

You're gonna get mail. Be careful, be careful. Let me guess probably hasn't watched the Honeymoon, she hasn't. It's the Beatles. Let me start. This was part of the conversation last week. It was actually. It was a good. Last week was good too. It was a good.

Speaker 4:

If it wasn't for Desi Lu Productions, one of my favorite sci-fi shows would never have existed.

Speaker 1:

I know Star Trek, I know, I know, I know, I know the connection. That's what it's like. And here's what you're missing. I don't like and I know you're gonna. The minute I say this, andrea, it's gonna hit you in the head. Oh, I don't like slapstick comedy. It's not my thing. I don't like kind of that. You know cheeky, I don't love that. So it actually makes more sense that I wouldn't watch it, you know.

Speaker 4:

I like I take three stooges as slapstick. I don't take Lucy as slapstick. It can be, but not always.

Speaker 1:

So all of that is in the same genre. Like Jim Carrey, steve Martin, like I can respect all these people. It's just not something I'm gonna watch because of that.

Speaker 3:

I don't like that stuff either. But I just think of like the only reason probably really that I watched I Love Lucy is because when I was a kid there was like seven channels. Yes back and I thought Lucy was on the other side of the screen and I said it was kind of mean.

Speaker 1:

I guess what I said last week was what I was at rehearsal. I wasn't always watching TV, I wasn't always, and I don't mean that in a bad way, it's just, it's one show, dudes, I don't get one show I didn't watch. I mean, look it. I also don't. The shows that we talked about last week that I was into were later on, when I was actually alive.

Speaker 2:

I'm not trying to be rude, but those are the shows I watched. I don't go back and watch shows but I wasn't around.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean. So, tony, did you remember you got me for not watching 2001 A Space Odyssey Because you're a sci-fi fan? If you're a sci-fi fan and you've never seen 2001 A Space Odyssey, then you can't say you're really a sci-fi fan. I've never said I'm a slapstick comedy or I've never said I'm aficionado of all things old school television never, not once, never, not once. You guys can try this on me, but it's not gonna work. Because it's not gonna work, I will watch it, though, unlike some people, I'm open-minded enough to be like okay, everybody's telling me I should watch it. I'm gonna try to watch it. I'm not as hard-headed as some people.

Speaker 3:

That's the thing. You should watch it. I'm just surprised that you haven't. That's all it takes.

Speaker 1:

I'm surprised you haven't seen ET and that you won't. I'm just saying You're surprised that I won't. I'm not surprised that you won't, but I want you to watch it, like before I die. If I die before you, that will be my. I'm gonna put it in my will. Oh shit, it's going to get in here my money.

Speaker 2:

She's gonna have it playing at her service. I'm gonna have it playing at my service All the music from John Williams.

Speaker 3:

You were like, yeah, you didn't get invited to the party, but here's ET bitch.

Speaker 2:

Oh, my God.

Speaker 1:

Lord Jesus.

Speaker 2:

That's gonna hurt me. Oh, we're gonna hear the party. You're gonna think it's a whole remembrance of Carmen and it's really the movie.

Speaker 1:

I'm gonna trick her. I am, I'm gonna trick her and make her watch it. Look at, I know, but there's a part of me that there was something I tried to watch in the day, rick, that you asked me. Oh, because you were watching the continuation of our favorite show. And I said I'm gonna watch it. And then what did I do? I was like, nope, I'm done, because I hate that one character. I'm like I can't watch no more of it, I'm done, I'm done, done, done, I was just thinking you never watched, or you probably didn't like Threes Company then either.

Speaker 4:

Huh.

Speaker 1:

I respect and love John Ritter with a passion, but I didn't really watch the show. I remember that was on when I was alive.

Speaker 1:

I don't mean that in a bad way but, like, these shows that you're all talking about are shows that I didn't. They weren't on when I was home and you guys watched it. You watched reruns of it after the fact. So we were older. I don't know why. I mean I'm gonna say something but it would bring down the conversation, so I'm not gonna. But I'm like I think the reason why is because I wasn't in a stable place to be watching. Old school television is what I'm trying to say. So when I talk about the things I watch, is because I watched them while they were on. What about the Furlies? I don't even know what that is.

Speaker 4:

Is that the spin-off of Threes Company?

Speaker 3:

The Furlies right.

Speaker 4:

They were one of the Landlords, yeah.

Speaker 1:

The Furlies. I don't even know what that is. The digital show is comedy. How do you not like slapstick comedy? What digital show he?

Speaker 4:

said this, this digital show Is this a slapstick comedy?

Speaker 1:

Is this a slapstick comedy? I don't know. Well, maybe if I'm doing it, it's funny. I put a laugh track in it is We'll have that availability somewhere, but I don't know how to do it. Yeah, oh, yes, it's been off from Threes Company. Yeah, all I remember was the blonde woman doing an exercise video, or she had a thing where you put in your thighs.

Speaker 4:

Oh my gosh, the dance summers.

Speaker 1:

Right, she had a thing that you would, I remember being like I should buy that to work with and I did it, but I remember being like, oh, then my thighs would be beautiful. I can't remember that?

Speaker 4:

Didn't they have like three different women? Be like the blonde on the show.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, there were multiple blonde roommates. Oh see, I don't even know all that I mean.

Speaker 1:

I think she's still at it. I mean not regularly, but Aren't these people gone already?

Speaker 1:

No, they're still alive, john.

Speaker 4:

Ritter passed it. John is because he was sick. Yeah, yeah, and I love his stuff and then he got cancer and got over it though.

Speaker 1:

I use it for my arms.

Speaker 1:

Okay, can I also say something? I didn't do this because I didn't want to embarrass Charlie when he was talking on the show the other day, but as I was editing because I heard it when he said it and I let myself go because I didn't want to embarrass him. And then I saw when I was editing and I was gonna I'm just gonna do it now when Charlie was explaining that he had his office next door to James Cameron and he was the model for the clothing member they were and he said, and I quote you know I had a regular middle-sized man's body. I just want to say I'm calling bullshit. Charlie is the.

Speaker 1:

He was like the most. I don't know what he looks like now, but he looks the same. But he was like oh, muscle tone, like six pack abs. He was like perfect, perfect body. So I'm just calling bullshit on that. Charlie, that was cute though I love how you slid that in there, like I didn't want to embarrass you, but gotta do it now. So, yeah, I thought that was so funny. I was like middle-sized guy.

Speaker 4:

Before marriage Marriage will do that to you, that's true, okay, fair enough, fair enough.

Speaker 1:

But that was during that time, right? That's when you were kind of the model for all of the Titanic, crapola or whatever. That's so funny, so I just want to call bullshit on that. I'm gonna call it a day. Here we go. It gets fun later on, I feel like we should. I should plan to do a two-hour show, take out the first 30 minutes or something, but I have to go through it all. So are we all gonna do homework for next week? Andrea, watch ET. Yeah, charlie, I was in the best shape of my life, I know right, when I knew you baby. Hey, you wanna watch ET.
