00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:22.559
Good afternoon, good evening. Good one forty seven am, and

2
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:24.640
you have woken up in a cold sweat because you

3
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:26.719
think you're having a heart attack, but it turns out

4
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:28.879
that you laid on your left arm. Kind of funny.

5
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:34.280
I'm Joe and I'm Morgan, and welcome to Anxiety Addicts

6
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:37.799
Bedtime Stories. This is where two best friends since we

7
00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:40.679
were eleven years old collect stories from the Internet and

8
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:43.679
true user submitted stories and turn them into twenty minute

9
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:46.560
tales to help you take your mind off of whatever's

10
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:48.799
bothering you and help you go to sleep.

11
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.600
Let's be honest, anxiety can feel really, really lonely, and

12
00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:56.240
we don't want it to be. I don't know about you, Joe,

13
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:59.000
but whenever I think about that thing that I said

14
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:01.479
to a thirty year old old woman fifteen years ago

15
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:05.079
that I can't even believe what I said, I said,

16
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.840
you look really beautiful for your age. I was twenty.

17
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:12.359
I still stress about it, and when I hear other

18
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.239
stories like this, it makes me feel so less lonely.

19
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:19.439
Absolutely, and to put things in perspective where you said

20
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:22.000
this one thing, but somebody else's burned their house down

21
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:24.439
and they got over it, so you're like, oh, okay,

22
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:26.879
all things being equal, I think I've got this.

23
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:29.159
Oh my god, I still cringe about it. I still

24
00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:30.719
cringe about it. I was trying to be really nice,

25
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:33.079
and I obviously was an idiot as a twenty year old.

26
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:38.920
To be fair, though, twenty years ago, maybe people weren't

27
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.879
taking that as offensively, like now everything is considered offensive,

28
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:44.239
and maybe back then it.

29
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:48.040
Was like she definitely took it offensively, like laughed at it,

30
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:51.959
but definitely took it offensively. Wow, you know, I mean

31
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:54.680
if somebody came up, could you imagine a little twenty

32
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:56.040
five year old came up to you and you're like,

33
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:59.760
you're really pretty for your age, I'd.

34
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.159
Like, yup, got that right? My god.

35
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.640
Well, guys, we just wrapped up season two and we'll

36
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.439
be taking some time off before we kick off season three,

37
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:14.120
but we will continue to be doing our weekly BS

38
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:15.800
because obviously.

39
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:19.800
So our WEEKLYBS is where Morgan and I to get together.

40
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:23.599
We talk about the people with our exact same names

41
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:25.840
and what they're doing around the world, what we're stressed

42
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:28.159
out about, and then we'll give you a little bit

43
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:34.520
of our brilliant, psychologically educated insight onto some pop culture things.

44
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:37.159
I'm kidding. We don't have anything interesting to say about that.

45
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:41.080
Yeah, but it's kind of fun trying to find a way.

46
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:43.759
Do you know that everybody? When I used to read

47
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:47.159
like gossip columns, I knew everybody. And now I have

48
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.560
no idea who they're talking about unless they're talking about

49
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:57.360
like the older generation, like like the Backstreet Boys and

50
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:01.599
or Oprah Winfrey. I don't know any.

51
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.879
Yeah, I don't know the younger people either. I don't. Also,

52
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:06.479
I don't know if I should be proud of this,

53
00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:08.360
and I feel like the gays are going to disown me.

54
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:11.439
But I've never seen an episode of any of the

55
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:14.439
Real Housewives shows, and I've never seen an episode with

56
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:15.319
the Kardashians.

57
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:20.400
So I've definitely seen episodes of the Kardashians, but I've

58
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.439
never seen I shouldn't say I've never seen the Housewives.

59
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:25.120
When I go home for the summer because we don't

60
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.240
have them here, my sister in law, my brother's wife

61
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:32.159
got my mom into them, and my mom and I

62
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.120
will sit and either watch Judge, Judy or one of

63
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:35.800
the Housewives.

64
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:40.039
I love that. I love that. That's like it's I

65
00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:46.599
appreciate junk TV is a connection point, I have anxiety.

66
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:49.800
Would you like to hear about how I turned Real

67
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:53.120
Housewives into having my own anxiety? Because that's the definition

68
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:55.599
of insane. Like that makes no sense. It doesn't even

69
00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:57.599
make sense when I'm saying it right now. It sounds

70
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:01.120
so dumb. But this is where my brain goes as

71
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.039
I wonder how this sort of time in pop culture

72
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:07.199
is going to be remembered, and talking to my kids,

73
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:08.879
It's not going to be like, oh, and this was

74
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:10.919
the time of and Andy Warhol in the seventies and

75
00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.680
the protests and this artist doing this. I'm gonna be like,

76
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:16.519
this is going to be a time when like plastic

77
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.800
faced women yet got drunk and yelled at each other

78
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:21.600
on TV. And my kids are going to be like, oh,

79
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:23.319
that was your defining moment.

80
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:28.199
Wait a second, are you saying that because you read

81
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:30.079
an article about Chris Jenner's new face?

82
00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:32.560
I did?

83
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:33.040
That?

84
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:34.519
Did pop up on my seed?

85
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:38.360
I mine too? Oh my god? Do you think it's

86
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:42.839
like a like do you think that she's like call

87
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:44.519
like you know how they say even if it's in

88
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:47.120
a paparazzi photo, they can like have it doctored. Do

89
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:50.120
you think it's doctored? Because she seriously looks like she's

90
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:53.240
twenty in a scary way.

91
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.240
I mean, I think I have so many thoughts on it.

92
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.720
My first thought, and I feel like I'm saying this

93
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:00.800
because we're recording, is that, like, anybody should do what

94
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.759
makes them happy, and I frankly don't care. I think

95
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:09.279
that that family is really like I mean, there's five

96
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:15.079
of them and one college degree. I look down upon that.

97
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.360
I think that they have so many followers and so

98
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:21.319
many people look to them for beauty and advice and

99
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:24.079
put them on this pedestal, and I think it's a

100
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:28.040
little bit insane. But also things look different on camera,

101
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.319
Like I was an actress for fifteen years, and the

102
00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:33.519
makeup that they do for the camera doesn't look great

103
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:34.079
in person.

104
00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:38.959
Yeah, totally, So who knows what she actually.

105
00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:42.519
Well, she looks fucking phenomenal. And I'm going to say,

106
00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:45.879
I remember when I was younger, I used to always

107
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:48.000
say I can't wait to age because my grandmother was

108
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.240
so fabulous. My mother's so fabulous. I'm like, I can't

109
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:52.360
wait to age. I'm gonna wear it proudly and like

110
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.439
the first signs of wrinkles and gray hair. I'm like,

111
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.439
went blonding up boatox. So I can't say what I'm

112
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:01.680
going to feel like when I'm sixty, because I do

113
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:07.800
stress about getting older now and I never thought I

114
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:08.639
was going to be that way.

115
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:12.079
But I think that that's all of us. We're all like, oh,

116
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:13.879
well do it. We'll cross that bridge when we come

117
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:15.959
to it. And then you're at that bridge and you're like,

118
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:18.199
I fucking don't like this bridge. I am going to

119
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:20.560
give you a pushback though. I don't think she looks phenomenal.

120
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:21.759
I think it looks weird.

121
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:25.120
Well, it looks weird because you know her actual age,

122
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:27.839
but like, whoever did it? I'll tell you why. I

123
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:33.879
think it looks phenomenal. If she was a I won't

124
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:37.319
say twenty, a thirty year old like or a forty

125
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.199
year old. Let's say forty year old that looked like that,

126
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:42.040
you would say, Wow, she's such a beautiful woman. And

127
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.000
I think I'm so used to walking around. You know,

128
00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:47.959
first I was in Los Angeles, now I'm in Milan,

129
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:52.120
and it really looks like I don't know people from

130
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.480
Los Angeles and in Milan all went to the same

131
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:57.120
doctor and you know exactly what they got done. She

132
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:00.199
doesn't have that look she doesn't.

133
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:03.279
I have like, yeah, yeah, maybe I haven't looked at

134
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:04.120
enough pictures of her.

135
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.240
I think she looks funny. I think her nose looks

136
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:08.519
like she's had a bunch of nose jobs. I think

137
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.000
that like you know how your dog looks when it

138
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:13.959
puts its head out the window and the air blows

139
00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:17.040
at what.

140
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:18.480
And their girls go back?

141
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:20.319
Yeah, yeah, I think she looks like that. I think

142
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:22.079
she looks like a Golden Retriever with its head out

143
00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:22.959
the window on a highway.

144
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:25.199
Oh my god, I'm sorry. I'm gonna stick up for

145
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:27.759
Chris Janner and say I think you're fucking fabulous, And

146
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.680
I hope, I don't know. I hope one I hope

147
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:33.399
I don't. I don't want to have it one day.

148
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:36.120
But I can never say never.

149
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:38.839
Morgan, I love you and I love that we have

150
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.600
different opinions on this because I think she's everything that's

151
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.240
wrong with the world in one human heartbeat.

152
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:47.160
I don't think there's anything wrong with it as long

153
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:50.279
as people say, like, oh no, I didn't do anything

154
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:50.959
that annoys me.

155
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:53.199
I agree with that. I totally agree with that.

156
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.759
But if somebody says, like if you're if your grandmother

157
00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:58.560
of my grandmother became and it was like, I just

158
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:00.240
got my booms done. I just got this, and this

159
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:02.800
is not what I There was something going around the

160
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:06.040
internet where somebody's like, don't please, don't call me a

161
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:09.720
natural beauty. Like these women who looks like real natural beauties,

162
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:12.600
like surfer girls. They're like, my hair's dyed, my lips

163
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:16.360
are filled, there's botox in my forehead, my eyebrowser dyed,

164
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:19.720
my eyelashes are fake, and like they go, I put

165
00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:21.759
in a lot of work to look like a natural beauty.

166
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:24.879
And I loved that because it's like everyone thinks, you know,

167
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:27.519
you wake up looking like people wake up in the movies.

168
00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:29.959
And I wake up and I like look in the

169
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:33.360
mirror and I go, holy shit, that's security.

170
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:36.039
The Internet's a lie. I feel like this is why

171
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.360
God gave us degenerative eyesight, Like you're just supposed to

172
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:43.360
as you age, you're just supposed to not be able

173
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:44.759
to see yourself as well anymore.

174
00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:47.639
It's so true. And you know, it's funny that there's

175
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:49.440
a lot of makeup today, but like when I'm on camera,

176
00:08:49.480 --> 00:08:51.279
you can't even like I looked pale up.

177
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:53.759
But that's what I'm saying about you don't know what

178
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:55.840
her face looks like in person, Like if you were

179
00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:58.120
sitting there next to her, you could be like, this

180
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.960
is scary, Like it's scary to see somebody's facial features

181
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.480
so manipulated marks. I would like to wrap this up

182
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:09.159
by saying, you've never seen a dog happier than when

183
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.960
it's sticking its face out the window of the backseat

184
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.600
of a car on like a country highway road. So

185
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:17.000
maybe this is just a way for everyone to look

186
00:09:17.559 --> 00:09:19.799
as happy as the Golden retriever going to the lake.

187
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:25.080
What if that's the procedure was called Golden Retriever going

188
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:25.639
to lake.

189
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:29.600
I'll take two, all right, all right, let's move on

190
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:33.440
to Joe's favorite segment. So, for anybody who's new to

191
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.399
listening to, our anxiety addicts a weekly BS. We love

192
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:40.639
looking up and getting notifications on people all around the

193
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:43.480
world that happened to share our same name, and sometimes

194
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:45.559
people who don't even share our same name. But something

195
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.200
that like I don't know the initials or something is

196
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:51.360
Joe sometimes brings to the table. Now I'm just teasing,

197
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:56.399
and I started mine, I don't know, like three months ago.

198
00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:59.960
Joe's had Herzon for years the notifications of a Joanna

199
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.240
Newman or Joe Newman or whatever you have in I

200
00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:06.480
started mine three months ago and Joe gets like daily

201
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:11.759
or weekly updates on different Joe Newman's or Joe Diana

202
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:14.559
Newman's around the world, and I in three months got

203
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.080
one until this week.

204
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:19.399
Du du dum.

205
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:22.960
Now, unfortunately Jo's are way better because they're usually obituaries

206
00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:26.440
of older women whose time has passed, and you know,

207
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:33.279
we like to celebrate them here on anxiety attics, but

208
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.600
mine are always very strange, and about one hundred percent

209
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:41.799
of the time they're in Ireland. So my one this

210
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:43.639
week and I had to look up the name of

211
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:47.840
this town. It's called Nina, and it looks like it's

212
00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:54.759
like a little south east of Gatwick. Is it Gatwick? No,

213
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:57.000
not Gatwick, Oh my god, No, Galloway. Galloway. Oh I'm

214
00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:00.120
gonna get in trouble for that. That's the airport in

215
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:04.320
London of Galloway. And came up in my fee that

216
00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:08.039
there was an article written because in Nina they are

217
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:13.360
at the counselors, which are you know, the lawyers, I

218
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:15.399
guess you could say of this small town who make

219
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:19.399
sure life goes on as it should. Are quite upset

220
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:23.919
this week because and I quote, Nina is just one

221
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.320
of the many towns in the Midlands which has an

222
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:29.840
excessive dog fouling problem, And I.

223
00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:31.720
Just does that mean shitting?

224
00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:36.039
Yeah, and people aren't picking it up? And I thought, well,

225
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:38.399
I want to move to a place like Nina where

226
00:11:38.440 --> 00:11:43.799
the front page news of their local regional newspaper like

227
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:47.480
that's it. Could you imagine, Well, you kind of live

228
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:50.120
in like the middle of nowhere, but could you imagine

229
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:54.639
being so in Like the worst thing that you can

230
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:56.879
come up with to put on the front page of

231
00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.960
a newspaper is people aren't picking up their dog shit?

232
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:02.399
Why am awesome?

233
00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:04.600
That's awesome. It means that the rest of your life

234
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:06.200
is so well put together.

235
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.759
Seriously, Like that's a good community. But I have to say,

236
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:12.200
guys in Nina, like pick up after your dogs. Not

237
00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:14.639
only is it annoying for people, but I get really pissed.

238
00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:17.879
I live in a city people don't pick up their

239
00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:20.200
dog shit. But it's really annoying for my dog too,

240
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:24.399
because like they like to smell the stinkiest, shittiest thing,

241
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:26.559
and then I have to constantly pull them away, like

242
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:27.600
pick up your dog shit.

243
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.440
I like that one. I like that one thinks.

244
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:35.039
Oh, by the way, just to say, the head counselor

245
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:37.720
is Louise Morgan.

246
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.720
Walsh and she's the one who was important enough to

247
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:43.679
be quoted in the front page of the newspaper. So

248
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:45.159
good job, Louise.

249
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:47.440
Yes or Louis Morgan Walsh. I don't know if it's

250
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:49.200
a boy or girl, and I don't know how like

251
00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:50.799
is that how you spell Louis too?

252
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:54.440
You don't have an E at the end?

253
00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:57.639
Oh okay, so I guess it's Louise. Let's assume she's

254
00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:01.240
a girl. And because she's, you know, the head of

255
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:06.879
a town of twenty five people. So yeah, that was

256
00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:08.519
my Morgan Walsh I would like to bring up for

257
00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:09.919
the week. I know that it's not a lot about

258
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:13.799
her or him, but yeah, it was my first notification

259
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:18.879
that came in besides the graveyard the cleaning up the

260
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:23.279
graveyard in another spot in Ireland. So yeah, what do

261
00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:26.399
you got for us, Joe? Hopefully something more interested?

262
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:31.320
Okay, So this she's interesting because she's super creative and

263
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:34.320
is somebody who I think you'd see on HGTV making stuff.

264
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:36.840
Her name is Joe Newman. She had a career setback

265
00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:42.639
during COVID and opened up a new refurbished and reworked.

266
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:46.159
It says door, but it says Joe and Brian Newman

267
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:48.480
are the kind of people that see something in the

268
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:51.320
store and think, yeah, we could probably make that. And

269
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.960
they opened up Newman Creations in the Haymarket Creamery building,

270
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.720
and she makes all kinds of like really cool woodworking stuff.

271
00:14:00.039 --> 00:14:04.559
I was looking out downtown Lincoln, Nebraska. But I'll tell

272
00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:06.440
you why I thought that this was so interesting, and

273
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.759
it actually doesn't have anything to do with her specifically,

274
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:12.000
but I was like, oh, I woodworking is something I

275
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:15.840
know absolutely nothing about. But I was remembering the woodworking

276
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:19.919
class in high school. And if you're new to us,

277
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.200
Morgan and I have known each other since middle school

278
00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:28.039
and mister Zebrawski was the technical drawing teacher, but I

279
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:31.120
think he also did woodworking. And I have this memory,

280
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.399
and this is an anxiety, deep deep within my soul

281
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:38.000
of a good friend saying I kind of wish a

282
00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:40.879
teacher would die so we didn't have school tomorrow, and

283
00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.080
many died, and she felt guilty. She might still feel

284
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:45.879
guilty about it to this day. This was twenty five

285
00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:50.600
years ago, and not only did he die, but we

286
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:51.759
still had school.

287
00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:54.399
Oh my god, I remember when he died. That was

288
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.519
really sad. He was a great teacher. Yeah he was fun,

289
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:01.120
like going to his class shot class was fun.

290
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:03.799
Yeah, he was hurt and he was cursed by a

291
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:05.559
student who just wanted to sleep in.

292
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:08.639
Oh my god, don't say their name, because that would

293
00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:11.960
be if it is an anxiety, then she would or he,

294
00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:18.080
she or he or anybody not that they'd feel to

295
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:21.440
figure it out, would feel shamed. Do you know your person?

296
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:23.240
Do you know what brings me the most anxiety about

297
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:24.879
this is? This is all I want to do in life.

298
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:27.320
I want to learn. I actually looked up would shop

299
00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:30.159
classes in Milan. I would love to learn how to

300
00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:34.159
repurpose things or when something breaks, be able to fix it,

301
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:38.759
which I know sounds really stupid, but it's like, I'm

302
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.600
going to take a class in case you were wondering.

303
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:44.320
But Morgan, that's why I think that what we're doing

304
00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:48.039
is so cool, Because you're really worried about insulting somebody

305
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:52.120
twenty years ago whose name you can't remember, and this

306
00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:59.480
chick killed somebody. She did not I'm just saying like

307
00:15:59.559 --> 00:16:02.519
what you're anxious about about saying one thing? And she

308
00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:05.679
said one thing and then somebody died. You offended a

309
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:06.399
thirty year old.

310
00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:11.200
Maybe could you imagine like if you said, you know,

311
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:13.600
like I oh I hate her, I wish she died

312
00:16:13.679 --> 00:16:17.279
or something, and the next day they died. I would yeah, yeah,

313
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.559
I would. Also. I would also be like, everybody should

314
00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:21.480
be really fucking scared of me and be really nice

315
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:23.559
to me, because I obviously am a magical power.

316
00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:27.399
I know there's a lot going on there to unpack. Anyway,

317
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:30.720
we are going to be re releasing some of our

318
00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:36.320
favorite episodes throughout the summer. Wednesdays, you get Anxiety Attics BS,

319
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:40.360
which is this brilliant conversation between these two amazing women.

320
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:44.320
I'm sure you cannot live without because nobody else wants

321
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:46.480
to hear us, and that's why we have to record

322
00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:48.639
ourselves and put it up on the internet so our

323
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:51.720
reach is a little bit bigger. And then on Fridays

324
00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:55.159
we are re releasing I think some of our funniest

325
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:56.480
episodes more it's the first.

326
00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:59.240
One opposite opposite. Wednesday will be the re release and

327
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:03.480
