version of that. I hope they don't seem

3:42

toxic doing that like I would not come

3:44

into work as I didn't feel well. I

3:46

just have like a couple little itchy spots

3:48

and insists a couple hundred like more. Excited

3:51

3:53

would want to like lay in bed

3:55

and cry about like a little baby

3:57

hides you know sure like it it

3:59

it. Well, that's

4:02

really good to hear. You're hiding the

4:04

hives for me and for

4:06

our audience and I really appreciate that. Tell

4:09

me how your week was last week because

4:11

you kind of video go

4:13

viral. Yeah, I went viral, which

4:15

the timing is perfect. I

4:17

get like, Hello, uh, Craftheads,

4:19

who found the viral video. Is that what you call

4:22

your fans? I'm going to call my fans Craftheads. No,

4:24

I actually call them friends because I feel like we're

4:26

all friends. Um, but as

4:28

a joke, I'm going to call them Craftheads.

4:31

Okay. Is there

4:33

some plan words that we can think

4:35

of? Like, I know like grass, smoking

4:37

grass, but you're smoking grass. Lauren, also

4:40

allergic to weed. We're going to

4:42

go. I didn't know that audience used to all

4:44

my weirds. I don't have periods. I'm allergic to

4:46

weed. You're allergic to periods. I am

4:49

allergic to periods. I don't enjoy them. I'm

4:52

allergic to, but I just suffer through it. But tell me

4:54

about this video. Yes. So another

4:57

plus size. I don't want the audience to

4:59

get bored of this, but we really went

5:01

viral AF with this one. Like it has

5:03

hit over 23 million views. That's

5:07

insane. I can't even conceptualize 23 million.

5:09

And you know what? And I don't

5:11

want to jinx it, but it's one of these special

5:14

videos. So let me just explain what the video is

5:16

for anyone who hasn't seen it. Um,

5:19

Tess and I went to Macy's and

5:21

the plan was to record this, uh,

5:23

video sketch of me wearing

5:26

really ugly plus size clothing and saying

5:28

like, it's giving grandma, it's giving receptionist,

5:30

it's giving, I hate my arms, you

5:32

know, but we got in the dressing

5:34

room and it was just like, the

5:38

scent and to like fat panic, like

5:40

trying on all these ugly clothes. And

5:42

because Tess is ingenious, she just like

5:44

filmed the whole time. Of course. And

5:46

then the video she posted was different

5:49

than what we had planned. But I think

5:51

it's special because it was a video

5:53

just of me and my personality and

5:56

being silly. So I feel like people watching it

5:58

feel like they're shopping with a friend. Yeah,

6:00

they were more you know genuine reaction. Yeah stuff

6:02

you were trying out So when you were in

6:05

the store, I didn't know it was a Macy's

6:07

I feel like that's valuable information So

6:09

when you were in the Macy's were you intentionally

6:11

picking up things that you thought were ugly? It

6:14

sounds like yeah, that makes a video maybe not

6:16

as well But we

6:18

were I you know, I had a script where it was like, okay find

6:20

something with a cold shoulder Find something

6:22

a grandma would wear find something Disney.

6:24

There's so much Disney adult They look

6:27

really is I see it at the

6:29

thrift store all the time the cold

6:31

shoulder cutouts That I think

6:33

is one of the most relatable because why

6:36

so many of the sweaters I mean cold

6:38

shoulders that that was popular. I want

6:40

to say like six years ago I have a

6:43

longer like when was the cold shoulder trendy?

6:45

It's been a it's been a while, but

6:48

they just still keep giving plus the swim

6:50

in the cold shoulder It's like show a

6:52

little skin. Yeah, but not too much skin,

6:54

you know hide your bat wings or whatever

6:56

I love to show my bat wings. They're

6:58

beautiful. They make me fly. Yeah, I fly

7:01

They remind me of my grandma's arms, you know, like there's

7:03

nothing wrong with a big arm But

7:05

there's so many and I get it some of

7:07

us we struggle with what our arms look like

7:09

and the cold shoulders I'm a little flirty a

7:11

little way to be fun. Well being insecure But

7:15

and some people just like them. But anyways, I

7:17

think the video It's just

7:19

like the perfect video because there's nothing like

7:21

overtly political. There's no cursing It's

7:24

something you only think that is kind of political

7:26

is that you look like Hillary Clinton and a

7:28

lot of these outfits I would

7:34

Know but no hate to Hillary Clinton like

7:36

she looks fabulous in her skirt suits It's

7:38

just that we're young, you know 30 something

7:40

year old women We don't want to be walking

7:42

around looking like Hillary Clinton every day. We looked

7:44

like a politician and the

7:46

blue and the blue dress That's the one

7:49

I'm thinking of. Um, I also got okay

7:51

This is so specific but so many people

7:53

said You

7:55

look like if ad Bryant and Lindsay

7:57

Lohan had a baby Oh,

8:00

I see Lindsay. I feel like

8:02

you've gotten Lindsay before. So I

8:04

got Lindsay when I was a teenager, Lindsay

8:07

Lohan. And then

8:09

with this viral video, there was a 12 year

8:11

gap, or not I wasn't a teenager 12 years

8:13

ago, but like there's been like a long

8:16

gap between people. Okay, so it's been a while

8:18

since you've been told that. But it's back, I

8:20

guess. Well, cause she's in the

8:22

Walmart commercials. She's like kind of back in

8:24

the scene, with meeting girls coming back. Right,

8:27

like maybe it's more of a at the

8:29

ready reference for people. But the Aidy Bryant,

8:31

like, do you think that Aidy Bryant is

8:34

purely because of body size? Okay, so people,

8:36

that's the only quote unquote negative thing happening

8:38

in the comments, is people being like, why

8:41

are you saying she looks like Aidy Bryant? Just

8:43

cause they're both fat, you're problematic. And it's like,

8:45

I would love to look like Aidy Bryant. Aidy

8:47

Bryant is super cute. Or to be like Aidy

8:49

Bryant, people are commenting Melissa McCarthy, and

8:51

maybe, you know, people's brain, they're going

8:53

to like another plus size funny

8:56

white woman, which I think that's what it is.

8:58

But, you know, like, I always take it as

9:00

a compliment, if somebody says, I remind them of that.

9:02

Am I the thing that you look like someone famous?

9:04

Right. That's a compliment. Who I admire and

9:06

would love their career. Right. You know,

9:08

like, I'm not going to take it offensively, unless... By

9:11

the way, all of those women have flawless

9:13

skin. That's just a

9:16

common denominator that I picked out. Yeah, it's a

9:18

problem. But I kind of imagine like,

9:20

being told that you look

9:23

like a certain celebrity, let's say Aidy

9:25

Bryant, saying you look

9:27

like Aidy Bryant, purely because of body size, I

9:30

can see that being annoying, because it's kind of

9:32

like, when people tell me

9:34

I look like someone, it's always somebody

9:36

with eyebrows. Right. And I know

9:39

it's supposed to be annoying, it's just never annoyed

9:41

me. Well, that's good. You're

9:43

such a positive person. Like, I need you to be a

9:45

little more negative. Okay, I'll work on it. And

9:48

I'm like, just a smidge. But

9:51

yeah, like, that's always annoying when someone's like, you

9:53

look like Lord. And I'm like, you're just saying

9:56

that because we have strong eyebrows. Right. You

9:58

know what I mean? Like, not that I wouldn't. like to look

10:00

like her, it's just I am my own person. Congrats

10:03

on the video though, I saw that

10:05

it was on the Cleveland News today.

10:07

Guys, I'm huge in Cleveland. Big in

10:09

Cleveland, baby. Dylan

10:11

from the Bravo podcast, he commented in

10:14

our Betcha Slack after, like we posted

10:16

the video of the news segment and

10:18

he posted the GIF of,

10:20

or GIF, don't come at me guys.

10:23

I say GIF. Okay, I say GIF.

10:25

Uh oh. GIF is a peanut butter.

10:27

It's time to end this new podcast.

10:30

No, but he sent the image,

10:32

moving image of

10:34

Tina Fey in 30 Rock going,

10:37

in Cleveland, I'm a model. Yes.

10:40

I remember that season too, she had

10:42

a boyfriend. She was dating someone in

10:44

Cleveland. Yeah, yeah. I was dating

10:46

Ted Lasso who moved to Cleveland. Oh,

10:49

it was Ted Lasso? It was the actor.

10:51

Yeah, I call him Ted Lasso. And

10:53

she was fantasizing about like, oh, what if I gave up

10:56

my city life and went to Cleveland? And now

10:58

I'm having that same thing. I'm like, oh, Cleveland loves me.

11:01

They said I was a star. They used

11:03

the word star. And then they referred to

11:05

this podcast as, they go, she's also a

11:07

host of a podcast, The Diet Starts Tomorrow.

11:12

So endearing. It's like when

11:14

people call Target the target. Yeah,

11:16

Walmart's right. Nordstrom.

11:21

That's adorable. Well, this is The

11:23

12:37

starting this podcast. The truth is

12:39

all the lift big get big and beach body

12:41

ready in three weeks pressure stops most of us

12:43

from even starting. And starting is

12:45

what matters most. It's everything. I

12:48

love Peloton because it fits into my

12:50

life seamlessly. I take their yoga classes

12:52

at least twice a week. I

12:54

love them. The instructors know exactly what

12:56

they're doing. And I always

12:59

feel like I'm getting a super professional super

13:01

tight workout with amazing music by

13:03

people who know exactly what they're

13:05

doing. Wherever you're beginning and

13:07

wherever you want to be, Peloton encourage you

13:10

to just start. They have thousands of

13:12

classes to get you moving and doing what you can.

13:14

If that's a 10 minute low impact class, they have

13:16

those. And when you're ready, take

13:18

it up a gear with a 30 minute live

13:20

DJ ride. Start with Peloton and find instructors that

13:22

will keep you motivated to stay on your fitness

13:24

journey. Learn the basics and build

13:27

from there. Remember doing something is everything.

13:29

Get started with a Peloton

13:31

bike or a bike plus

13:34

rental at www.onepeloton.com/bike slash rentals.

13:37

Terms apply. Do

13:40

you worry at all about like being

13:42

pigeonholed into this plus size thing or

13:45

are you kind of like, oh, it's

13:47

so great that people are resonating? Oh,

13:49

I love it. I feel like there's

13:52

there's this sect of people, plus

13:55

people who feel not represented

13:57

in TV, the media. Macy's,

14:01

you know, shopping, you know,

14:04

and we're kind of like a shy group,

14:06

you know, we don't really want to advocate

14:09

for too much because we're just going to

14:11

get hit with, well, why don't you just lose

14:13

weight then, you know. And so for

14:15

someone like me who's like, been through

14:17

the shredder to kind

14:19

of be the person to say

14:21

like, no, we want better clothes, you

14:24

know, I'm like a safe space to

14:26

jump on that bandwagon. Like, let's be

14:28

a community, like my dream is to

14:31

create fat community. Like that really is my

14:33

dream because I feel like the only

14:35

fat community that we've had historically is weight

14:38

watchers meetings or trying to lose weight together.

14:40

And it's like, let's build fat

14:43

community around just friendship and shared

14:45

experiences. And, and

14:47

I like that. That's sort of

14:50

where my batches videos have gone. If

14:52

you want to call it a pigeonhole, call it a pigeonhole,

14:54

but I call it a love hole. What?

14:57

Oh, no. Happy

15:00

Valentine's Day, ladies. Come

15:03

into our love hole. I love this pigeon is

15:05

what I'm trying to say. Uh huh. Okay. I

15:08

may have used, did I use the word

15:10

pigeonholed? I didn't mean to

15:12

put that on you. I don't feel

15:15

like your pigeonhole is a hard hitting interview.

15:17

Yeah, I didn't mean to, to

15:20

project that onto you. It's just that a

15:22

lot of these I've noticed a lot of

15:24

these videos are about plus size shopping. And

15:26

it's important. We need the ones that are

15:29

going viral. Like if, if anybody wants to,

15:31

they can go to my Lauren

15:33

Hope Kraft Instagram and click

15:35

on tag videos. And there's

15:37

tons of like branded content,

15:40

um, astrology content, um,

15:42

anxiety content. Like there's a ton.

15:45

It's just this plus size thing hit

15:48

a nerve in like the best way. Yeah.

15:50

And so I love that, you know? Yeah,

15:52

same. And you have brands like reaching out

15:54

to send you clothes. Sorry.

15:57

Um, I'm trying not to be too. cringe

16:00

about going viral, but I

16:03

really am excited about the clothes. I know I should be

16:05

excited. Why not? Yay, I'm on a

16:07

podcast and this is good exposure, but I'm free clothes. I'm

16:11

so excited. I mean, there's no

16:13

quicker way to a woman's heart. If you're

16:16

listening to this, send me more clothes. Yeah,

16:19

send her all the clothes. I love

16:21

clothes. Send her all the clothes and

16:23

I'll take the scraps. I

16:26

know maybe if somebody reaches out, I'd be like, can I get this at

16:28

a 20, 22, 22, and

16:31

then like a four. You know, it's really

16:33

flippy. We're really flippin' the script. No, we're

16:35

flipping the script right now. This is important

16:37

work that we're doing. I love

16:39

it. Anything else you want to share about that video? So

16:43

something really ironic and a good

16:45

way about going viral with this video is it's made

16:47

me think about how like people in the industry have

16:49

given me notes. And when I say people in the

16:51

industry, I'm talking about men. Oh,

16:53

yeah. I think we've talked about this before, but

16:55

they're like, hey, you're really funny. This is great.

16:58

But you need, don't talk about your body so much. You

17:00

know, like don't, people don't want to hear women talk

17:02

about their bodies. Don't talk about your body size. Like

17:04

people are going to feel bad for you. No, once

17:07

again, I think by people, he means

17:09

men. Yeah. Like when

17:11

we say people, I think we're talking about men. Right.

17:14

Yeah. Because I'm going viral with women, you know?

17:16

And it's just like, I think this is a testament to find

17:18

your audience, you know, because this, the

17:20

reason why people are seeing me on a

17:23

massive scale now is because I talked about

17:25

my body size. Thank

17:27

God I didn't listen to industry. You

17:29

know? Yeah. Yeah.

17:32

And isn't that like the number one thing? Like if

17:34

there's something that sets you apart, it's good to acknowledge

17:36

it. It's not good to like act

17:39

like it's not even there. Yeah. And

17:41

I don't, I never wanted to be,

17:43

you know, in the public eye for something fake

17:45

either, you know, like that gets exhausting and people,

17:48

you know, unalive themselves for something like that.

17:51

Like I want to be authentically what I am. And

17:53

I feel like I did it long enough. And now the right

17:55

people are finding me. So it feels really good. Yeah.

17:58

That's actually a good. segue

18:00

into like the next generation of the

18:02

podcast because We're making

18:05

some small changes to the podcast,

18:07

but we feel like the audience

18:09

that we have we're all like-minded

18:11

people We're all accepting we understand

18:13

that health does not always correlate

18:15

to body size Right and it's

18:17

certainly not always caused by it

18:20

But that's not the only thing that we're going

18:22

to be talking about we're gonna be talking about

18:24

no so much more like so much I'll care

18:26

how we just live as

18:29

women in our 30s Which

18:31

you know hello 20s let

18:33

us inspire you you guys are valid There's

18:37

just so much bullshit to work through and I'm

18:39

kind of excited to go

18:42

through it with you Yeah, that all

18:44

falls under the umbrella of health right

18:46

away It's like anything that you experience

18:48

in your life things that you that

18:51

happen to you on a daily basis That can

18:53

really impact the way that you feel in

18:55

the way that you feel about yourself So we're

18:57

gonna be talking about all those things everybody's

18:59

welcome here big. It's a big welcoming loving love

19:02

whole Place of a

19:04

podcast you guys have it again We're

19:07

gonna make it a term. That's the new name in the pot

19:09

not Actually,

19:12

so we're gonna be trying out some new

19:14

segments by the way and this one is

19:17

It's a working title. We're calling

19:19

it food pinions Okay,

19:21

okay, I Love

19:24

food pinions It's

19:26

an opinion that you have about food and

19:28

we have many and I feel like most

19:30

people have many Yeah, even if they never

19:32

express it did you ever read there's a

19:34

dr. Seuss book. It's called the butter battle

19:37

book No, I think about

19:39

this book all the time because I

19:41

think when dr. Seuss wrote it he

19:44

was I Can't remember exactly

19:46

when it was written But it was supposed to be

19:48

an allegory for World War one or World War two

19:50

or something like that So basically

19:52

there's a wall and the people on one

19:54

side of the wall eat their bread with

19:57

the butter side up And

19:59

the people on the other side side of the wall eat

20:01

their bread with the butter side down.

20:03

And these two groups, they're at each

20:05

other's throats. They can't come to a

20:07

consensus. They're at war over which side

20:10

of the toast they eat their butter

20:12

on. And it

20:14

all culminates at the end

20:16

with two men holding bombs,

20:18

like little cherry bombs on either side

20:20

of the wall. And they're about to

20:22

whoever drops the bomb first will blow

20:24

up the other side. It's just so

20:26

much for children. It's so much for

20:29

children. But it stayed with me, you

20:31

know? Yeah. But the thing that stayed

20:33

with me about the book is like,

20:35

okay, there's all this hoopla we're up

20:37

in arms about who's right, who's wrong.

20:39

But at the end of the day,

20:41

we're talking about toast. You

20:43

know? Yeah. So that's what these food

20:45

opinions are. They're us passionately

20:48

expressing our opinions about food. But it's just

20:50

food, guys. It's just food. But it's just

20:52

food. Don't get your panties in a

20:54

bunch. Which don't be sexually harassed.

20:57

Listen, originally. Sorry. You can edit

20:59

that out. No,

21:03

I think that's funny. Well, it's

21:05

just food. And

21:07

everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Okay,

21:09

this was inspired by an experience that

21:11

I had. I went to the movies

21:14

one day. And I

21:16

was running late. I was with a group

21:18

of friends. And one of my friends very,

21:20

very graciously offered to run to Walgreens and

21:23

pick up some candy. You love breaking

21:25

the rules at the movies. Rules are

21:28

made to be broken, especially at the

21:30

movies. But can't candy, smuggling in candy

21:32

is better than, you know, a

21:34

bagel. I disagree.

21:36

Okay. Wow. This

21:39

is another food opinion that I have. I just thought

21:41

we'd do a cute callback. I don't

21:43

feel very passionately about it. I feel

21:45

passionately about it. I'm still so mad at this

21:48

person who confiscated my bagel. I'm

21:50

mad for you. I just, I

21:53

agree. It should have been in your bag.

21:55

Like, you're right. The rules of smuggling. I

21:57

know, Lauren. I just didn't have the space

21:59

for it. Whatever, it's fine. This

22:01

was literally six months ago. But,

22:04

okay, so this was a different movie-going

22:06

experience. I went with some friends. My

22:09

friend offered to run to

22:11

the drugstore and grab us some contraband

22:13

candy. Yes. And

22:15

I asked for Twizzlers, okay? Oh

22:18

no. She comes back with

22:22

Robby. No, no, no, no. And now I

22:25

didn't complain. I did not complain. I

22:27

want everybody to know I

22:29

graciously accepted the Red Vines. But on the

22:31

inside, I was thinking, is she fucking with

22:33

me right now? Because everybody knows that Red

22:36

Vines are different than Twizzlers. She's definitely messing

22:38

with you. She was totally trying to trip

22:40

me up. Those were probably much easier to

22:42

find. I feel like she had to go

22:45

out of her way. For the Red Vines?

22:47

For these. Do you think these were more

22:49

expensive? Can I just say I've never

22:51

even heard of these before? Red

22:53

Vines? Yeah, like I've always heard of

22:56

Twizzlers. Yeah, because,

22:58

well, I don't want to

23:00

give away my food pinion, but you know, it's one

23:02

could say that one is the inferior

23:04

candy, which is why you haven't heard

23:06

of it. So let me

23:08

just open this. We're gonna do

23:10

a taste test. Oh yeah, because

23:13

I want to give my, I'll

23:15

give my food pinion as well here. I have a

23:17

feeling I know where your food pinion is going. Now,

23:20

should it be a blind taste test or should

23:22

I tell you which is which? Oh,

23:24

good question. I feel like I trust you

23:26

enough that you can know which is which.

23:29

Actually, I would like to do

23:31

a blind taste test. Okay. Yeah.

23:33

Cool. So I'll just, I'll close

23:35

my eyes and then you just hand

23:37

me one. Okay. By

23:39

the way, if you have misophonia, just fast forward. I

23:42

have misophonia. I will not be chewing in the microphone.

23:44

Oh no, we're not. You're in a safe place. Do

23:47

you think I'm a psycho? I'm

23:50

not gonna chew into the microphone. Okay.

23:53

Here is candy A. I

23:56

want your genuine reaction. You're making a face.

23:58

This tastes like this. It tastes like

24:00

cough syrup. Okay. This

24:03

tastes like aspartame cough syrup.

24:05

Okay, cough syrup is

24:08

interesting. Okay. If this

24:10

is, okay, let me try this one. I don't know

24:12

why I'm closing my eyes. I don't know why either.

24:14

I don't know why either. Well, you can experience the

24:16

sensory pleasures. This is

24:18

delicious. This is totally

24:20

different. Totally different. This tastes like

24:22

a Twizzler, because I've had Twizzlers

24:24

before. It's a Twizzler. Twizzler, so

24:27

not sponsored either. No,

24:29

if you want to sponsor us, I'd be all for

24:31

it. Retweet us, I guess. But they

24:34

could not be more different, right? To

24:36

me, wait, let me just try it. Let me

24:38

try it. Do you want to try the cough syrup one? Oh yeah,

24:40

we can share. I'm gonna take a

24:42

bite from the other side for hygienic purposes. I'm

24:47

still eating this Twizzler. Oh. I

24:50

can't believe your friend did that to you. It tastes like

24:52

a cherry scented candle.

24:56

Oh my God, it's so bad. That,

24:59

she needs to go to jail. I'm calling

25:01

the police. Candy jail

25:04

right now. Now this one, I

25:06

feel like I need a palate cleanser. I

25:09

mean, have the Twizzler. The Twizzler fixed it

25:12

for me. Isn't that good? It

25:14

tastes like childhood. Flawless. Yeah.

25:17

And like also, I feel innocent again.

25:20

There's a huge difference between this

25:22

and that for a movie snack. The

25:25

reason why I think this is such a

25:27

good movie snack, this being the Twizzler. Yes.

25:30

Is it's kind of, it's like chewy. Like

25:32

you really need to work at it. It's

25:34

kind of like a hairy bow gummy bears.

25:36

They're different than other gummy bears. Cause you

25:39

really need to like, you earned that flavor.

25:41

You earned it. Here at DSG, we think

25:43

you should earn your food. Just,

25:46

that's a joke. Joke. Nobody,

25:49

nobody sound bite me on that. No. Or

25:51

do. No,

25:54

but like, it does feel more satisfying and

25:56

worked a little bit for it. You put

25:58

some elbow grease into it. Another

26:01

thing that I'm gonna say is that

26:04

these are just trying to be these. The

26:06

red vines are just trying to be the

26:08

Twizzlers. I need to give up. It's like

26:10

the red vine. I'm ready to be negative

26:12

now, Emily. To me, the red vine is

26:16

Twizzlers' cousin, maybe

26:18

slightly younger cousin who really wants to

26:20

be like Twizzlers. Oh no. So,

26:23

you know, she does her makeup like

26:25

Twizzlers. She does her hair like Twizzlers.

26:27

She starts going to the same yoga

26:29

studio as Twizzlers. She

26:31

buys knockoff copies of all the same workout

26:33

sets that Twizzlers wear. But at the end

26:35

of the day, she's never gonna be Twizzlers.

26:37

She's never gonna be Twizzlers. Now I feel

26:39

bad for the red vine, Emily. What

26:43

am I gonna say? You know? You're

26:46

totally right though. Imagine you're

26:48

watching a movie in a movie theater and

26:50

then you mindlessly put that in your mouth

26:52

and then you can't pay attention because you're

26:54

too busy almost throwing up. Exactly. And

26:57

you're a gag bag for these red vines. So

27:00

anyway, if anybody prefers red

27:02

vines over Twizzlers, let me know and I

27:04

will ship you these red vines. We're not

27:07

gonna finish them. If somebody

27:09

likes red vines, they're probably gonna never listen

27:11

to this podcast again because we just read

27:13

them for filth. This is an anti-red vine

27:15

podcast and I will

27:17

be pushing out anti-red vine propaganda. No, it's

27:20

so bad. Hey

27:24

y'all, it's Hannah Brown. In case you

27:26

haven't heard, I launched my very own

27:28

podcast, Better Tomorrow. Every Wednesday

27:30

I have a variety of different

27:32

guests including Charli D'Amelio, Lauren Elena,

27:35

Tim Story. And we seek to answer

27:37

the big question of, am I better

27:39

today than I was yesterday? It's the

27:41

perfect balance between meaningful and fun conversations

27:43

that will leave you feeling great. It

27:45

has been an absolute blast building this

27:47

community and the space for us to

27:49

learn and grow together. Be sure to

27:51

listen to Better Tomorrow wherever you get

27:53

your podcasts. You

27:57

had another candy related food pinion.

28:00

that I thought was interesting. I don't

28:02

necessarily disagree with it, but tell the

28:04

audience. Okay, so some of

28:06

you have seen on my vision board, Eat More Candy,

28:08

2024. So

28:10

I've been buying, you know,

28:12

some little candies here and there, and I

28:14

bought one of those Reese's hearts. It's like

28:16

in the shape of a heart. So

28:19

good. Oh, hell yeah. And so my

28:21

food pinion, hot take, is that Reese's

28:23

candies, if it's in a

28:25

shape like a bunny rabbit or a heart,

28:28

they taste so much better than when they're

28:30

in the cups. I don't know why. Do

28:32

you think it's the ratio of the chocolate

28:34

to the peanut butter? Or do you think

28:36

it's fresher because it's Valentine's Day, so they

28:38

need to push them out quicker? Oh my

28:40

God. It's because they were just

28:42

made for a holiday. Do you think that's why?

28:45

Yeah, because Reese's have been sitting out at

28:47

places forever probably. Oh, they gotta be like hundreds

28:49

of years old. The

28:52

ones that you find at Rite Aid or whatever.

28:54

They were here when first Bush

28:56

was here. When Moses was here. When

28:58

Moses parted the Red Sea. You went really far back. I

29:02

was thinking like George Bush was president. No,

29:05

it's been both times. It's the Old Testament. That's

29:07

how far it goes back. No, it

29:09

must be because it's newer chocolate. So

29:12

I'm not, okay. I'm

29:15

not like necessarily opposed to that as

29:17

a concept. I do think there's enough

29:19

preservatives in the candy that like, that's

29:22

probably not why. Here's

29:24

my, have you tried the other shapes?

29:26

Have you tried the trees at Christmas?

29:28

I love the trees. You love the

29:31

trees, I'm having the best. What about

29:33

the pumpkins? Girl. Okay. So

29:35

I've actually never had the hearts, but

29:38

I've had the trees and I've had the pumpkins. The

29:40

trees I think are meh. The

29:43

trees, if it was a tree versus a classic

29:45

cup, I'm going for a classic cup. However,

29:48

the pumpkins, superior.

29:52

Interesting. And I

29:54

think that is the ridges. Maybe you like the

29:56

ridges because I call like the ridges have the

29:58

ridges and the tree is just. kind of like rounded

30:01

and smooth. I like the rounded

30:03

smooth. Okay, so maybe it's

30:06

textured thing. I think that with

30:08

the pumpkin, there's more peanut butter

30:10

than chocolate because

30:13

of the rounded shape. So

30:15

it actually holds more of the good

30:17

stuff that's on the inside. So

30:19

I love the pumpkins. Like the day after Halloween,

30:22

I'm going to the store and I'm buying all

30:24

the pumpkins. I'm wondering if some of this is

30:26

emotional too. You know? It's

30:28

a fun shape. I love

30:30

love. Do you like Valentine's

30:32

Day themed things? I do.

30:34

You're a fan of Valentine's

30:36

Day. I'm a fan of

30:38

everything people think I'm not a fan of.

30:41

You're coming at me again with this toxic

30:43

positivity. Sorry. So I don't

30:45

like the, you know, I

30:47

don't date a lot or flash ever. So

30:49

Valentine's Day, I don't really connect into it

30:52

in a romantic sort of way. But growing

30:54

up, you know, my dad wasn't around, but my

30:57

grandfather was. So every Valentine's Day, I think maybe

30:59

he wanted to make sure I felt

31:01

loved on this holiday. Big Daddy was your

31:03

grandfather, right? Big Daddy, yeah. So every Valentine's

31:05

Day, he'd buy like the cheesiest balloons,

31:07

bears, heart shaped boxes of shot. And

31:10

he'd just come home and we were

31:12

his girls, his big mama, his wife,

31:14

his daughter, and his granddaughter. And Valentine's

31:16

Day was so exciting because I got

31:18

heart shaped candies from Big

31:21

Daddy, you know? When he'd give you a

31:23

card or anything. There were no cards actually,

31:25

but just lots of food and balloons.

31:27

Well, that's all you need. And bears, whatever.

31:29

Fuck card. Whenever someone gives me

31:31

a card, I pretty much immediately

31:33

throw it out. I'm gonna recycle it. I'm gonna

31:35

read it. No, I'll read it. I'm gonna hold

31:37

it and say, thank you for the joy. Yes,

31:40

and I release the Marie Kondo method.

31:42

I do it immediately. I

31:45

put like close family members in the trash. There

31:48

are some, like it's a

31:51

really fucking nice message. If somebody

31:53

really went out of their way

31:55

to write, why they

31:57

love our relationship and... Oh,

32:00

like specific things.

32:02

Trash. You know, no, then

32:05

I'll save that. Yeah, that's going on the

32:07

bulletin board. I have a friend

32:09

who loves to send and receive postcards. That's

32:11

cute. I save all her postcards. That, you

32:14

know, they do mean something to me. And it also

32:16

just feels wrong to throw away a postcard. I

32:18

know what you mean. Like a Christmas card or a holiday card,

32:20

like what am I, a hoarder?

32:23

Yeah, like if it's just

32:25

a card with a pre-determined

32:27

message and then somebody just

32:29

wrote, you know, hi, love

32:31

you. Thanks, Edward Jones. You know, I'm not

32:35

keeping that. No. But,

32:38

okay. Anyway, so Big Daddy

32:40

instilled in you a love for Valentine's

32:42

Day. Yes. That's so sweet. You

32:45

know, I like heart-shaped candies. I love love. And,

32:48

well, you are in a relationship.

32:51

What do you think about Valentine's Day? Are

32:53

you and Andy doing anything? I think Valentine's

32:56

Day sucks past. Nobody likes Valentine's Day. Like

32:59

I have never

33:01

particularly loved the holiday.

33:06

I definitely didn't like it when I was single.

33:08

But then again, I also

33:10

didn't care that much. Yeah. But

33:13

if there's anybody who feels

33:15

a certain type of way about being single on

33:18

Valentine's Day, you should not feel

33:20

that way because I got dumped one year

33:22

on Valentine's Day. And that was way worse than being single.

33:25

No, that sucks. Oh

33:27

my God. Can I just briefly... That falls in

33:29

the womb. Can I tell you what happened? Yeah.

33:33

So this was...it was a dark time. And

33:36

I admit that I used to be

33:38

kind of a loose cannon when I was dating.

33:41

And I'm not particularly proud of

33:43

this. But at

33:46

one point I was dating two

33:48

men that were both named Jonah.

33:50

Go off, Big. And I thought

33:53

it was hilarious. It was like I started dating

33:55

Jonah A. into

34:00

Jonah A. Like I think maybe we went out

34:02

like five times or something. And

34:04

then I started dating Jonah B. But

34:06

the primary reason was because his name

34:09

was also Jonah. Some names

34:11

are just hot. Like the way they're spelled

34:13

and the way they look. It was a

34:15

hot name, but it was also like the

34:17

possibility of like maybe I'll text the wrong

34:19

Jonah. And maybe you know it'll cause a

34:21

little drama. That was like part of it.

34:23

You're allowed to call out the wrong name

34:26

during sex. I'll have no idea. Oh

34:29

my God. I didn't even think of that. Well,

34:31

I didn't even get close to having sex with

34:33

Jonah B. So Jonah B.

34:35

I went out with like once

34:37

or twice and then I

34:39

ended up not wanting to see Jonah

34:41

B anymore because he invited

34:44

me for I think it was the second

34:46

date. He invited me over to watch a

34:48

movie and then revealed that he didn't

34:50

have a TV. So I was like,

34:52

are you trying to get me

34:54

in bed with you with a laptop? I mean,

34:56

you can do the move, but at least have

34:59

the TV set. Yeah, it

35:01

was and it was like, oh, no, the move.

35:03

It was a slow reveal of like, oh, I

35:05

don't have a TV though. And I'm like, okay,

35:07

so but I do have this penis right

35:10

here, you know, saying, oh my God,

35:12

wait, it's all coming back to me

35:14

now. It actually gets so much worse.

35:16

So then when

35:19

he was trying and by the way, we hadn't I

35:21

don't think we even maybe we kissed,

35:23

but like we barely touched. Yeah, we

35:25

barely touched. There was not a lot

35:27

of physical chemistry with Jonah B. So

35:30

Jonah B invites me over to

35:32

his house to watch a movie doesn't have a TV

35:34

doesn't have a living room, I think like he made

35:36

it very clear like we're gonna be next week

35:39

in bed and I was like, we don't know each other

35:41

like that. So then I hit

35:43

him with the I think

35:45

that I'm getting more of a friend

35:48

vibe thing from you. And

35:51

his response was so

35:53

psychotic. It was so

35:56

I've never gotten a response like this

35:58

ever. It was like, hey, Hey, can

36:00

you tell me why

36:02

you feel that way? Because,

36:05

sorry, this is why women ghost. Don't come at

36:07

us if we need to disappear. We're

36:09

afraid of you. Right. We've had so many men

36:11

have horrible reactions. It makes you not want to

36:14

say it. To just be based on an honesty

36:16

of like, hey, I'm not feeling a connection. And

36:18

why? It's like, do you, like,

36:20

now I need to teach you things. Now

36:23

I'm your tutor. It's

36:25

so uncomfortable. So I tried

36:27

to gently be like, yeah, you know, it's not that I

36:29

don't like you as a person. I just don't feel like

36:32

we have chemistry. He comes at me more

36:34

of a red vine. Jonah

36:37

B was more of a red vine. Jonah

36:39

A was a Twizzler. That's so dead on.

36:41

Say that next time. Yeah, but I feel

36:43

like, yeah, but then you have to get

36:46

into the intricacies of like, the candy that,

36:48

you know. Clips. You have

36:50

to do this. Get that clip. Guess which

36:52

candy you are. Oh my God. No, so

36:54

then he says to me, I've

36:57

been getting this feedback a lot. Like he's

36:59

been hearing that a lot from women. And

37:03

then he says, I haven't had

37:05

sex since last summer. I've

37:07

been in this too. Yeah, yeah. And I

37:10

was like, oh my God. Oh

37:13

my God. Now I'm

37:15

basically your therapist. And

37:17

now I have to tell you like, no,

37:19

you're like really a great guy. Like, but

37:21

this is what it was. I sensed the

37:23

desperation. Inviting me over to his house

37:26

when he doesn't have a TV. And, you

37:29

know, basically like, I don't wanna say tricking

37:31

me into bed, but that's how it felt at the time.

37:34

That's because like the desperation was so

37:36

thick. Yeah, you could be a broke

37:38

boy without the desperation and we can

37:40

still hang. Totally, totally. And I don't

37:42

care about stuff like that, but, oh,

37:45

so then anyway, so then I

37:47

dropped Jonah B. I'm still

37:50

Into Jonah A, but Jonah A is pulling

37:52

away. So I'm like, fuck, I had two

37:54

Jonas now. That's how it always goes. You

37:56

go from two to zero, Yeah. That's how

37:59

it always goes. Cause especially with

38:01

Joan Us sell oil. Over

38:04

the join us so then. The.

38:07

Day before Valentine's Day. I

38:10

had sense things were getting a little this sinn.

38:12

Fin. Tuna A says can I call

38:14

you tomorrow. There's. No

38:17

scarier five words in the English language.

38:19

Us a break up call riots and

38:21

we had never spoken on the phone

38:23

before. So then

38:25

I'm like, yeah, I do it on

38:27

literal February Fourteen On February Four Edmunds

38:29

Say Emily, you dodged a bullet like

38:31

anybody with half a brain would know.

38:33

Even if you're even if you're dating,

38:35

listening to this and you're like oh,

38:37

I'm not really into the person I'm

38:39

dating right now and it's almost. Just

38:41

see if it still set you care

38:43

38:45

Three Up and do it Now Yeah,

39:02

But because he was on February fourteenth

39:05

39:11

41:56

okay, so you are you people committing Zen

41:58

saying I don't get enough cry. Courses

42:01

42:05

thing that ever happened to me that's

42:07

like him. would you have a gun

42:09

And yeah, we're. Asking.

42:11

You. A

42:14

gallon times day because I feel like as

42:16

a content manager I'm trying to like come

42:18

up with like content Id. I live on

42:20

a lot of gallons and stay related content

42:22

42:33

make such happen. So. We stop trying

42:35

to make gallon had a habit of

42:37

hates me. It. Is a

42:39

little credit crunch and the reason

42:41

why? I mean it's okay. so

42:43

like. I was trying

42:45

to figure out why I feel like it's cringe

42:48

an. End I think I

42:50

nailed it. So before thanksgiving a lot

42:52

of times people who get together with

42:54

their friends and they call it a

42:56

friend's giving my beliefs and excuse for

42:58

people to get together and to make

43:01

to where everybody's authors nothing to do

43:03

exactly and that's nice. So like if

43:05

you are just using Valentine's day is

43:07

an opportunity to get together with your

43:09

girl. Sounds lovely thought A Nice: any

43:11

excuse to have fun with your son's

43:14

his son Buy it. When. It's

43:16

like we need to do something with

43:18

our girlfriends on Valentine's day to distract

43:21

right idea that it's another pressure at

43:23

like why should I have to beg

43:25

my boy from for flowers or. Why?

43:28

Should I have to? Give. My girlfriend

43:30

flowers of like if you really says they

43:32

say but if they if you really do

43:34

have love between your friends and your partner's

43:36

you don't have to express it based on

43:38

certain days of the calendar in else i

43:40

think gowns and saves us. Valentine's.

43:42

Day with. With. Friends a pink

43:44

had off with a pussy hat and. pretty

43:48

much valentine's day like this year's

43:50

on a wednesday when we're working

43:52

you know like running or like

43:55

friend christmas or friend hanukkah like

43:57

there's we all have time off

43:59

and that we find things to do. But

44:01

like, I'm busy, I'm filming content on

44:04

Wednesday. I've got a doctor's appointment on

44:06

Wednesday. Like- I'm under the

44:08

blanket with my dog on Wednesday. Like, that's

44:10

another thing. I don't really- I wanna be

44:12

you when I grow up. Like I said,

44:14

I'm really a homebody. So I don't

44:17

like feeling pressured to go out and

44:19

seize the night. That's why I don't

44:21

like New Year's Eve. I don't like

44:23

feeling like I have to do something.

44:25

Cause honestly, I'm at my happiest when

44:27

I'm just chilling at home. Well

44:30

that's in right now. It is,

44:32

I've noticed that too. It's very stylish to stay

44:34

at home. Yeah, bed rotting. And can't play playing

44:36

at that though. My mom hates that. I really

44:39

don't like- Yeah, she can't stand it. We have

44:41

a couple bed rot themed

44:45

things on the Diet

44:47

Starts Tomorrow Instagram. And she always is like,

44:49

sweetie, I love you. I know you're just doing trends,

44:51

but I really hate this term. It's

44:54

called- We do your not rotten. It's

44:56

called resting. Right. No, that's why

44:58

I don't like it. It makes me almost feel worse

45:00

about what I'm already doing. Yeah, and then- I hope

45:02

a lot of people do

45:05

bed rot. You know, like get

45:07

bed sores. Yeah. Are we going

45:09

there? Just saying it's a real thing. So that

45:11

is a real thing. So be silly about it.

45:14

I'm realizing it's terrible. Yeah, I also saw a

45:16

video that was like, we're not calling it rotting.

45:18

We're calling it marinating. I was like, that's worse

45:20

somehow. Oh God, I'm a basic.

45:23

I'm not a piece of raw chicken.

45:25

Stop. Oh, sorry. I

45:27

don't know why this is making

45:29

me ill. But yeah, no, wait.

45:31

So Galentine's, you will not

45:34

be participating. I don't have

45:36

time. Yeah. She's got stuff

45:38

to do with hump day. I got to see my allergists. I

45:40

got a test and I were going to go to Macy's again.

45:43

Like I've got content to post. I

45:45

might, you know, get a happy hour with

45:47

a friend, but it will be Galentine's

45:49

day theme. I will say that

45:51

one year on Valentine's day, I

45:53

got tickets with my friends to

45:55

go to a Kings of Leon

45:58

concert, which Should give you an idea.

46:00

When net. Metering

46:02

Ten years ago and it happened to

46:04

be on bouncing say it was one

46:06

of the best Valentine's Day's I've ever

46:08

had a so we didn't call it

46:10

gallon time states so I think. The.

46:13

The thesis that we've come up with is

46:15

like of course you can spend time with

46:18

friends on on Valentine's Day I just. Don't.

46:21

Feel the pressure of it being a designated

46:23

Say right? It's kind of like that Shakespeare.

46:25

Is it. Shakespeare? Who says thou dost. Protest.

46:28

Too much sound like i'm you know

46:30

when? It's just that. I

46:32

do gallant. I'd say that's like. Way

46:35

to. See. As like

46:37

okay get out of years strong We

46:39

don't even like this. Also like if

46:41

you like gallon has day go off

46:43

clean like apple with your girls but.

46:46

It's I'm invited to a gallon times a party there. Said.

46:49

Be hallucinogenic drugs like that

46:51

says say i just want

46:53

to a thesis fall? Well,

46:56

that's who I want. That

46:58

sale, maybe? Combines. If

47:01

you're like just starting to date

47:03

someone, if you wanna celebrate Valentine's

47:05

day or really easy, appropriate gift

47:07

would be their favorite candy. Another

47:09

favorite candy. this could apply to

47:12

your dow's Also, it's Sundance days.

47:14

I'm not, you know, against having

47:16

days, but I don't like it

47:18

when it's become. A big production

47:20

my something you have to plan

47:23

and things about I would pop

47:25

for for like introverts. You.

47:27

Know people who like might not

47:29

have the best time expressing themselves

47:31

are not know when. To.

47:33

Do certain things and it's like that's an

47:35

excuse to sell your love for your partner.

47:38

How are to let you know? see a

47:40

thing? Yeah, amnesia. Like permission? permission to shut

47:42

maybe interests wrong word. but like someone who's

47:44

not sure how to. Express themselves in

47:46

a new relationship is that day comes around. It's

47:48

like oh, this is permission. To. Sell high

47:50

feel about you have like I can see

47:53

that being nice way to think about that.

47:55

Yeah. No, I could see that. We've.

47:57

covered all angles, The

48:00

we're able mean I'm pretty sure if

48:02

you make it exactly. Me:

48:10

Situation. Support. The.

48:13

Ones that like a blurry messages are no

48:15

yes it's the it's so funny because it's

48:17

the same hearts. You could never

48:19

you could never received our hearts before illness

48:21

and now yeah and now you super tallied

48:23

that you can. I think it's that might

48:26

not take is that I think it's the

48:28

same product and then they just read. Market.

48:31

At it as situation ship hard They

48:33

took all the rejects hearts. yeah like

48:35

the ones that didn't pass the test.

48:37

Honestly brilliant. Wait, somebody needs a raise.

48:39

That is brilliant cause you know we're

48:41

not eating any of those hearts any

48:43

well and we're not going to give

48:45

them situations ship people when I saw

48:47

those This is what I was thinking

48:49

like. I. Can't imagine

48:51

actually giving Matt to my

48:53

crush or something went wrong.

50:37

that that's a very nice group

50:39

50:42

But. Hey, they're funny. they're funny.

51:15

51:19

This. Is. This. Is.

51:21

Gonna sound like I just wanna talk about the

51:24

viral video again. Says

51:26

all season. talk about Let me

51:28

have this now. So.

51:31

This is really. I think people can

51:33

relate to this. So. Typically when

51:35

good things happen I feel like we

51:37

go to this place where it's like

51:39

wins issue than a drop hunter for

51:41

for how am I going to maintain

51:43

their sir you know And those thoughts

51:45

did sort of whisper on my shoulder

51:47

but I was able. To. Just.

51:50

Ignore that like the with the Echo

51:52

with their. But I.

51:54

Just I was the love sponge. When.

51:56

It went viral and I just sat in it. I

51:58

didn't marinate that I like. I'd

52:01

cook moments like I lit a candle.

52:03

Turn like turned off the lights,

52:05

gotten bad, got comfortable and then

52:07

with black see it is very

52:09

sexy and I took my bra

52:11

off. Oh. In a

52:14

non sexy way snow but like I really.

52:16

I read all the comments, i read all

52:18

the shares and I just soaked it and

52:20

myself happy and I let myself feel happy.

52:22

I did it. Turn to a

52:24

place of negativity. I even I'm like kind of

52:26

a spear to lay was like. Let.

52:29

Me like let me Except as said,

52:31

like let me let me feel this.

52:33

So normally how do you think it

52:35

would be different? Well I've had little

52:37

be no moments of success in the

52:39

past and I I was immediately would

52:41

spiral you're not able to enjoy. Yeah

52:43

I would find reasons why it's wrong.

52:45

same reasons why it's a flu, why

52:47

I'm an imposter. I'm like

52:49

we just silly women in in a team

52:52

and we don't know how to enjoy our

52:54

wins. Yes, really hard because. They. Say

52:56

that it's always darkest before the dawn,

52:58

but then you think okay, But then

53:00

after dawn what happens, right? So I'm

53:02

just. I. Feel like my ds He

53:05

when his uncle. Had.

53:07

Just been happy about the video and

53:09

the connections and I'm not over thinking

53:11

it. And I'd not putting

53:13

pressure on myself to be a content

53:16

machine, you know? Yeah, I guess it's

53:18

kind of good timing because I'm addicted

53:20

and server him anyway. So a new

53:22

followers average immediately have like they want

53:24

access to me like it's already there.

53:27

Ah so I think that's my when

53:29

is is that those negative voices were

53:31

just echoes for this. Funding.

53:34

The Hangman. Love that! Yeah, I

53:36

love that. I think it's only going

53:38

up from here. Think silly, what's your?

53:40

where's my when? Okay, my when. It's

53:44

that it's not a sound like a when it first.

53:46

So. I've been having this issue. I

53:48

go to the Why Okay, I'm that's

53:50

my gym of choice. And.

53:53

Lately. I've

53:55

been going in the afternoon. And.

53:58

Know if. Ah,

54:00

physical education put it or like

54:03

something that is required by there's

54:05

a school right next to the

54:07

why and. The. Wise

54:09

been flooded with teenage no, no, no,

54:12

that he never. Saw. The

54:14

were so scared of know they're terrified that

54:16

listening you're cool because you found the podcast

54:18

but. New. York City

54:20

teenagers. Are. The most terrifying

54:22

group of people on the planet. They truly

54:25

are like. I'm not exaggerating when I say

54:27

when I see a group of more than

54:29

two of them across the street, their mean,

54:32

they're cursing. They have a little speakers with

54:34

them. Walk

54:36

in a mine like they always look

54:38

at a group and it's impenetrable and

54:40

I just I was scared of teenagers

54:42

when I was one and I will

54:44

probably be scared of them until M

54:46

Eighty Five or so relate of I

54:49

it says I just am. So seeing

54:51

them at the gym has been a

54:53

little bit triggering actually because they're always

54:55

impacts mirror and they don't know how

54:57

to use any of the machine. This

54:59

is why I think it might be

55:01

a gym requirement that there there is

55:03

right next to the why so. I

55:05

think it might be required because they don't know

55:08

what the fuck they're doing. They're doing monkey bars

55:10

on the Smith Miss Himalayan. I think they're going

55:12

to the why like we used to go to

55:14

the mall is because there aren't places for kids

55:16

to go. It's that might be it. Or maybe

55:18

they are just trying to figure out what they're

55:20

doing. You know that there are a lot of

55:23

boy they're figuring out there fitness goals. Their. Fertilizer,

55:26

Set up in the gym work and

55:28

their fitness. It's.

55:30

Mostly boys. So yeah, maybe that's the

55:32

age where they're like, oh, i want

55:34

a good chance right or something. But

55:37

I'm not exaggerating when I say they

55:39

don't use anything correctly. Seventh, or like

55:41

doing donuts off the spin. fight the

55:43

urge you know, doing back flips off

55:45

the elliptical like that. You know what

55:47

the fuck they're doing and I'm always

55:49

scared to like. Go up to them

55:51

and be like he can I use

55:53

that. Know. Lately. I've been

55:55

going to the gym in the afternoon and

55:57

just not able to use anything because I

55:59

know that the majors are. you know? Doing.

56:02

Graffiti on the fucking have started a your

56:05

56:07

56:09

purpose but I'm too scared. Have been too

56:11

scared to be like hey are you done

56:14

56:16

56:23

56:25

56:27

56:29

It's to sit there tap dancing on and

56:31

right out of the fast as a way.

56:33

56:35

done because they don't even know when they're

56:37

going to be down there just fucking around

56:39

awful. Graceful exit. Fear that I've built up

57:47
