That's pretty crazy.
00:00:39
cltruitt22

I thought about if I was homeless and I lived in this with this kind of temperatures, I would be the smallest person in the world because I would spend all of my day in a gym.

cltruitt22
Yeah. Either that or walking around the mall.
00:00:54
sohot

00:01:15
cltruitt22

00:01:36
sohot
Yeah.
00:01:37
cltruitt22
That's that's no bueno.
00:01:37
sohot
I was a sweaty mess for two hours.
00:01:40
cltruitt22
Yeah. And that's always good when you're in traffic and angry already and then the heat and humidity add to it.
00:01:43
sohot
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it was great.
00:01:48
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:01:50
sohot
Yeah, when you just willing the air conditioner to just blow something out.
00:01:51

It was so human hot out that by like the skylight on my RV condensation was forming on it.
00:02:15
cltruitt22
Oof.
00:02:15
sohot
Cause it was cold in the RV and hot as balls outside.
00:02:18
cltruitt22
yeah
00:02:19
sohot
Yeah.
00:02:21
cltruitt22
but You save that water, so then it's no cooling later.
00:02:24
sohot
That's what I said. We need to find a way to save that water and use it for other things.
00:02:27
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:02:27
sohot
Yeah.
00:02:30
cltruitt22
Reduce, reuse.
00:02:30
sohot
But really no more camping in the summer.
00:02:33
sohot
It's just not worth it.
00:02:35
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:02:36

I mean, it was so hot like Saturday that just didn't want You want to go to the pool because it was so hot.

00:02:43
cltruitt22
yeah
00:02:46
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah. I mean, the other day I was like, I don't really want to walk outside the 30 feet from my house to get in the pool.
00:02:53
sohot
Yeah.
00:02:55
cltruitt22
Yeah, but I mean, I remember when I was younger, I tent camped in this kind of stuff.
00:02:56
sohot
That's.
00:03:01
sohot
There were maniacs ten camping this weekend and.
00:03:03
cltruitt22
Yeah, I don't know. ah
00:03:05
sohot
One of them put the rain cover over their tent.

Work, Fashion, and Nostalgia

00:03:08
cltruitt22
What?
00:03:09
sohot
How they didn't die in the middle of the night, I will never understand.
00:03:12
cltruitt22
Oh, my gosh.
00:03:14
sohot
Yeah.
00:03:17
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:03:17
sohot
I can't imagine how sweaty it was in that little tent.
00:03:20
cltruitt22
Yeah. That is one thing I've noticed the older I get, I don't like to be like sweaty feeling.
00:03:28
sohot
I love being sweaty, but if I'm sweaty on purpose, like when I go to sauna, I love that feeling. But I don't like just like walking around my neighborhood sweating to death.
00:03:38
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah.
00:03:40
sohot
Yeah.
00:03:41
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:03:42
sohot
The weird world.
00:03:47
sohot
And if I sweat in the sauna by the time you get out of the gym, it's usually gone. If I sweat at work and I just stay sweaty for 24 hours, I'm not a happy man.
00:03:53
cltruitt22
Oh gosh, that's miserable.
00:03:56
sohot
Yeah.
00:03:57
cltruitt22
Your uniform sticks to you. Your underwear is in places it should never be.
00:04:03
sohot
I went through three uniforms the other day at work. So we had that fire, and I sweated through that uniform, and then I sweated through another uniform, and I was like, okay, this is...
00:04:08
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:04:13
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:04:14
sohot
Then it rained.
00:04:15
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:04:17
sohot
It's like, if something else happens, I'm going naked.
00:04:22
cltruitt22
We didn't wash your uniforms?
00:04:23
sohot
I didn't have time. We had 27 calls for service in an hour.
00:04:28
cltruitt22
What?
00:04:32
cltruitt22
No! The city's not busy like that.
00:04:39
sohot
We tried to wash our are uniforms and I think I got them to the washer and then we want to call.
00:04:44
cltruitt22
Mmm.
00:04:48
sohot
And then Meg like throws her uniform in with mine and I'm like, well, this is uncomfortable. So now you're unmentionables in with my uniform.
00:04:54
cltruitt22
it
00:04:57
cltruitt22
It's not like it's going to do anything.
00:04:59
sohot
I just don't want them mixing. I don't want any.
00:05:00
cltruitt22
As so long as you don't accidentally try to put on her britches.
00:05:05
sohot
Yeah, that'd be weird.
00:05:05
cltruitt22
I didn't realize we wore the same cup size.
00:05:07
sohot
I'm getting one leg in her pants.
00:05:12
cltruitt22
ah
00:05:12
sohot
That's maybe it.
00:05:19
sohot
Oh, yeah.
00:05:20
cltruitt22
yeah but It's just hot and miserable and Oh, and yesterday. Oh, my gosh. The heat coupled with the humidity and the way the wind blew. It was like we were working in the Purdue plant. It was awful. Like they had. Side tangent. I have never seen grown men get more excited about emergency lights before in my life.
00:05:46
sohot
Oh, God.
00:05:46
cltruitt22
Like there was a rep coming to show like light packages.
00:05:50
sohot
Oh, I know a ship was working really late.
00:05:50
cltruitt22
And they're all like,
00:05:51
sohot
No.
00:05:53
cltruitt22
Do the lights turn on and off? Do they blink?
00:05:54
sohot
it
00:05:55
cltruitt22
Awesome. That's sweeper. But go out there and look at it, because you know they're getting that new Durango for Swift. And we're looking at it. And then the wind changed. And I was like, it's hot. It's disgusting. And it smells like ass out here. I'm gone.
00:06:09
sohot
Yeah.
00:06:11
sohot
My, my friend the other day described me as the most un-firefighter firefighter that's ever existed.
00:06:12
cltruitt22
Why?
00:06:18
sohot
And I was like, you know, who are more correct than you'll ever know.
00:06:18
cltruitt22
why
00:06:21
sohot
We were talking about something. It was a fire in Newcastle County. I was like, I don didn't even hear about it. And they're like, what do you mean you didn't hear about it? I'm like, I don't know what's going on.
00:06:29
cltruitt22
Yeah. Right.
00:06:30
sohot
Was it on my house? And then something that came up and I'm like, yeah, I don't care about that either. Like, do you have any firefighter?
00:06:37
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:06:38
sohot
I'm like, yeah. at my job where i work does my fire engine have tires and brakes that's pretty much it
00:06:40
cltruitt22
Yeah. Right. yeah It's. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Art, Philosophy, and Modern Trends

00:06:49
cltruitt22
You don't see like CPA sitting around, man, did you hear what happened? You thought the extra decimal point they found in Illinois the other day? No. Yeah.
00:06:56
sohot
yeah ah yeah don't i mean i'm assuming teachers don't talk about teaching when they're getting drunk at the bar every time i see them
00:07:07
cltruitt22
Ah, no, but they're probably talking about like idiot kids.
00:07:12
sohot
Yeah, that's fair. That's, you know, most of the kids.
00:07:17
cltruitt22
I had this one kid that didn't know there's between five and an X.
00:07:25
sohot
Clearly one of those is 10.
00:07:27
cltruitt22
It's true.
00:07:30
cltruitt22
Do they teach Roman numerals at all anymore?
00:07:34
sohot
How would I know?
00:07:35
cltruitt22
like don I don't know. I'm just pondering.
00:07:37
sohot
I would imagine not. They got to, right?
00:07:39
cltruitt22
Yeah, I don't know.
00:07:41
sohot
It's got to be a history class at least.
00:07:43
cltruitt22
Oh, my gosh. Next memo I send out, I'll send it all in Roman numerals.
00:07:47
sohot
Yes, put dosages in Roman numerals.

cltruitt22
See what, God, yeah, see if it catches it, yeah. What is this?

sohot
I mean, I'm good till like 100 and then I start once it gets the L's and the M's I get screwed.
00:08:01
cltruitt22
But L is 50, C is 100, M is 1,000.
00:08:05
sohot
Yeah. As a thousand. Yeah.
00:08:08
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:08:09
sohot
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I can figure it out, but it's going to take a little bit.
00:08:13
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:08:15
sohot
Sorry, ma'am.
00:08:15
cltruitt22

Yeah, let's use a very good end to a 10 year cycle.
00:09:32
sohot
Yeah, it's good.
00:09:33
cltruitt22
Yeah, I just I know they're going to keep things going. Part of me just wants it to stop and do something else.
00:09:39
sohot
Right, yeah.
00:09:40
cltruitt22
Yeah, so how about you?
00:09:43
sohot
Not really, uh, been... I kinda feel like it's been a lull in the game market this year for me.
00:09:51
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:09:52
sohot
I haven't really been excited about anything. It's kinda like I feel about movies, I'm just not excited about any movies.
00:09:57
cltruitt22
Oh, my God. it My wife and I had this conversation. Oh, do you want to go to the movies? No, but you didn't know. You need let me finish and say what's in the movie theater. I don't care.
00:10:09

Is there anything...
00:10:09
cltruitt22
Is it Deadpool Wolverine? Then I don't want to see it.
00:10:11
sohot
right.
00:10:12
cltruitt22
That's the only movie I'm excited for.
00:10:14
sohot
I don't think I care to see it in a theater though.
00:10:16
cltruitt22
I will just because.
00:10:18
sohot
Why?
00:10:19
cltruitt22
Because I'm an animal, Ron.
00:10:21
sohot
but It's just going to be a less enjoyable experience than sitting in your own couch and watching it.
00:10:25
cltruitt22
What's I guess all was it last week? Furiosa is on streaming, so I'll watch that now.
00:10:30

00:10:54
cltruitt22
It's, oh!
00:10:55
sohot
40 minutes?
00:10:56
cltruitt22
Well, maybe go to Cambridge, go see a movie, and get stabbed. Nothing good happens in Cambridge. Nothing.
00:11:04
sohot
There's a triathlon there once, I think.
00:11:06
cltruitt22
I don't know, they have one every year, and they, like, drown people in the river.
00:11:10
sohot
I mean, it's not like they're drowning.

00:11:32
cltruitt22
Yeah, I mean, some of their stuff's good, but I'm just I don't I don't need to go to Cambridge for that. I can go down to my local gas station and get their beer.

They used to have a place called the Amber Room.
00:11:57
sohot
That sounds sus.
00:11:59
cltruitt22
yeah It was like an old person. Not old person, but like an old timey restaurant kind of thing. I don't know. My great grandparents took me there.
00:12:13
sohot
I don't remember my great-grandparents taking me anywhere. I don't think my great-grandparents ever went out. That's my theory.
00:12:24
cltruitt22
Well, I mean, my my great grandfather drove till he was like 92.
00:12:29
sohot
Oh, my great-grandmother, when she was 96, was driving from Pittsburgh to Newark to come see us. so And just...
00:12:34
cltruitt22
Nice. See, she went places.
00:12:37
sohot
But I don't think she ever went out to dinner. I can't picture her out to dinner. Is that weird to say?
00:12:42
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah well, my great grandmother was habitual for anywhere we went. Any of the little like, you remember these always have those little packs of Lance crackers and stuff.
00:12:53
sohot
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:12:54
cltruitt22
She would empty the entire basket into her purse. And when the waitress came back around, Miss, this was empty when we sat down.
00:13:03
cltruitt22
Okay, so you're really sticking it to him, Grandma. Yeah, i'm so you're small. Sneak over there and get some off the other table. No, there's people sitting there. God.
00:13:17

Great grandma was a klepto It's one of those things like if you live through the depression though gotta to find me some crackers just in case oh Yeah
00:13:19

Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah.
00:13:25
cltruitt22
yeah Yeah. And she always had certs, mints in her purse.
00:13:34
cltruitt22
And I swear some of them had like a sweet taste to them. It's like most were mint, but there was one that was like had this weird sweet taste before the mint. I don't know. It's probably some arsenic or something she's putting on it.
00:13:46
sohot
Slid.
00:13:47
cltruitt22
Or lead. It's probably lead paint. Yeah.
00:13:53
cltruitt22
Yeah, they would drive like from Tillman Island to Nova Scotia and all over Helen creation.
00:13:53
sohot
Yeah.
00:13:57
sohot
That's cute.
00:14:01

And their giant boat of a car, because I mean, you know, that's how you know, a car is safe, you know, 18 feet long and takes a.
00:14:10
sohot
But when you can't see the wheel hood lights, because so long, I i remember the old, was it a Lincoln?
00:14:17
cltruitt22
Oh,
00:14:20
sohot
My girlfriend in high school, I drove this old ass Lincoln. That thing took up 38 parking spaces.
00:14:26
cltruitt22
so yeah, there are land yachts.
00:14:28
sohot
Yeah. And drove like it too. I mean, was it floated all over the road?
00:14:33

Oh, yeah, you know, the steering was not tight in them at all.
00:14:37
sohot
No.
00:14:38
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah, you had a good like three inches of play in the steering.
00:14:38
sohot
The old rack opinion.
00:14:43
cltruitt22
Oh, gosh.
00:14:46
cltruitt22
Yeah, I saw this thing that it was like an old advertisement, but they had this I can't remember what kind of car it was. it Might have been a Ford, but in the back like window area because it was a rear engine car, there was like this depression, and it was a baby's bassinet. It was like, baby will sleep safe and sound in the but with the warmth and rumble of the engine nearby. It's like, oh my god.
00:15:16
sohot
That's, uh, definitely back in the olden days when we had some weird issues of safety.
00:15:16
cltruitt22
It's like, yeah.
00:15:24
cltruitt22
Oh, with the backwards-facing cars seats in the station wagon?
00:15:25
sohot
The backwards facing seat. Yeah.
00:15:29
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, with that kids here in the, in the back seat, all you needs a lap belt.
00:15:38
sohot
Yeah, or and the lapouts will be made out of molten lava.
00:15:43
cltruitt22
Oh yeah.
00:15:44
sohot
Because if anytime sunlight gets on them, it would they would literally burn the impression of the seatbelt in your hand.
00:15:44
cltruitt22
Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Yeah.
00:15:51
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:15:52
sohot
i'm Like I remember screaming at my mom to not put the seatbelt on because it was so hot.
00:15:53
cltruitt22
And that
00:15:58
cltruitt22
And the seat itself was that weird plasticky thing that was, again, hot.
00:16:01
sohot
Oh, yeah.
00:16:04
cltruitt22
And like, I remember my grandmother's car, it was older, so it had a crack in the seat and that thing would slice your leg open.
00:16:11
sohot
My mother's zephyr wagon had this very distinct smell when it got hot.
00:16:12
cltruitt22
Good.
00:16:18
sohot
It was like rotten hot dogs.
00:16:21
cltruitt22
Oh, that's delightful.
00:16:21
sohot
Oh, man. It was because that was that plastic, whatever crap.
00:16:25
cltruitt22
Hmm.
00:16:26
sohot
And you would sit down and if you were wearing shorts, it would your your leg would stick to the seat.
00:16:30
cltruitt22
yeah Oh, Yeah.
00:16:31
sohot
God. The 80s were so miserable.
00:16:34
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah. They take a like a turn too sharp or something and you move, but your leg is adhered to the seat.
00:16:41
sohot
Yeah, that was the safety feature.
00:16:41
cltruitt22
Good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. yeah they're Forward thinking.
00:16:43
sohot
Yeah.
00:16:46
sohot
yeah Side tangent.
00:16:47
cltruitt22
I remember my mother never wanted to pull a like stop somewhere on a trip, so she always kept a mason jar under the seat. So if I had to pee, guess what? I was peeing in the jar.
00:16:57
sohot
Nice.
00:16:58
cltruitt22
yeah Yes. Yes.
00:17:01
sohot
Side tangent to that. I've decided that you and I have to have an his official apology
00:17:05
cltruitt22
I don't know.
00:17:09
sohot
to all of the millennials and delineials and whatever gen alpha there is out there in the world.
00:17:14
cltruitt22
OK.
00:17:15
sohot
And we're apologizing because we are gen Xers and we are responsible for ripped jeans and mullets.
00:17:22
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah, gosh, why are they back?
00:17:24
sohot
And I'm so sorry. Why are they back? It's awful.
00:17:28
cltruitt22
Yeah. Golly day in it.
00:17:31
sohot
I will say.
00:17:32
cltruitt22
There's like mullet competitions.
00:17:34
sohot
Yeah, and they're taking the ripped jeans way beyond where we did it.
00:17:35
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:17:38
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:17:39
sohot
Yeah.
00:17:40
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:17:41
sohot
I saw a girl who had ripped jeans that basically it was a flap from her crotch to her knee and then it connected again and then flapped out again.
00:17:41
cltruitt22
yeah
00:17:46
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:17:50
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:17:50
sohot
It looked like she had been in an explosion and her pants blew off.
00:17:51
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You see like the entire thigh and then the kneecap has a little cover and then like the calf.
00:18:01
sohot
Yeah, but we're.
00:18:02
cltruitt22
Yeah. And I'm sure those genes cost three times as much as a functional pair of pants.
00:18:06
sohot
Oh yeah. When's the last time you bought bought a pair of jeans?
00:18:11
cltruitt22
ah Two years ago, when me personally bought, I haven't bought a pair of jeans in forever.
00:18:15
sohot
Oh, wow.
00:18:19
cltruitt22
My wife buys jeans and stuff for me.
00:18:21
sohot
I wore jeans the other day to dress up for to go to dinner.
00:18:26
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:18:27
sohot
And I was like, i't I think I bought these jeans in 2010. That was the last time I probably bought pants.
00:18:33
cltruitt22
Nice. Oh, yeah. but The other day I told my wife, I was like, I guess I need to break down and buy shorts because I needed some new shorts because most of my shorts were like getting frayed at the edges and stuff.
00:18:46
sohot
Sure, sure.
00:18:46
cltruitt22
She's like, well, when's the last time you bought shorts? I was like, I don't know, six years ago. She's like, what? I was like, yeah, it's it's a piece of clothing. I don't think about it. I was like, I still wear T-shirts that I've had for probably 12 years.
00:18:57
sohot
Yeah.

Social Media, Privacy, and Generational Differences

00:19:00
sohot
Oh yeah, definitely.
00:19:02
cltruitt22
Yeah. yeah
00:19:03
sohot
100%. I was, we were commenting the other day, it was so hot. I was like, I still have my thin work t-shirt that's probably 15 years old, but I still wear that thing when it's hot.
00:19:12
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:19:15
cltruitt22
Yep.
00:19:17
sohot
back when we had our summer pants and our winter pants.
00:19:18
cltruitt22
Oh, my gosh. Yeah. And you got them mixed up one time. o You're on a call with it in the winter with those thin pants and the wind catches you and you're like, well, I'm frozen for the night.
00:19:23
sohot
Yeah.
00:19:29
cltruitt22
This is cool.
00:19:30
sohot
Yep, yep, yep.
00:19:31
cltruitt22
Awesome.
00:19:32
sohot
Yeah.
00:19:33
cltruitt22
Hmm.
00:19:34
sohot
time But yes, we officially at this podcast, this is our official apology, mullets suck.
00:19:35
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:19:39
cltruitt22
Yes.
00:19:41
sohot
Stop doing it.
00:19:42
cltruitt22
Please stop.
00:19:43
sohot
Please stop. They they look stupid.
00:19:44
cltruitt22
Yeah, it's, yeah. Yeah. There was only one man that could pull off the mullet and he's dead.
00:19:47
sohot
You don't look...
00:19:51
sohot
Yeah, it's Patrick Swayze. That's it.
00:19:52
cltruitt22
Exactly. Yeah.
00:19:53
sohot
No one else has ever been able to pull off the mullet.
00:19:55
cltruitt22
No, no.
00:19:56
sohot
Ever.
00:19:57
cltruitt22
And you can call it whatever you want. Oh, the Kentucky waterfall or what? No, it's, it's a mullet and it doesn't need to be out there. It looks like somebody killed a muskrat and strapped it to your head.
00:20:08
sohot
Yeah, it's terrible.
00:20:10
cltruitt22
oh
00:20:10
sohot
Yeah, so...
00:20:11
cltruitt22
that's it And I've seen, like, they shave designs in the sides. Oh, gosh.
00:20:17
sohot
Yeah, I see them in the gym all the time and I'm like, you just look like a dork.
00:20:20
cltruitt22
Yeah. Well, the utes today, the male utes, their their hair is awful.
00:20:24
sohot
The ute.
00:20:27
sohot
Yeah.
00:20:28
cltruitt22
It's either a mullet or it's that weird, I don't know, dead mop on their head that's just kind of dangly down or they've got like that front brim swoosh of their hair.
00:20:41
sohot
Yeah. They also don't know where how to wear baseball caps.
00:20:42
cltruitt22
Yeah. And that proves to me that there's a vindictive God out there because if a guy like me can't have a head of hair, but an idiot like that can. ah No, no.
00:20:51
sohot
But they also don't know why how to wear baseball caps, nor do they understand the point of a baseball cap. Because I get yelled at by the Utes at work about my baseball cap being, you know, I fold the brim. You're supposed to fold the brim. No.
00:21:05
cltruitt22
No. The front of your head is not flat. You're not a flathead Indian.
00:21:09
sohot
That is correct. Yeah.
00:21:11
cltruitt22
God.
00:21:12
sohot
And also that hat's supposed to sit in your back pocket. That's the whole point.
00:21:16
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah. If you need it, you take it out.
00:21:18
sohot
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:21:20
cltruitt22
Oh, gosh. A friend of mine sent me a picture the other day. um And it was a guy with his baseball hat on backwards, which I'll do that. No big deal.
00:21:30
sohot
Sure.
00:21:32
cltruitt22
Had a pair of sunglasses on. I was like, OK. He was like, look at this idiot. I was like, wait. I wear a hat backwards with sunglasses at times. He's like, no, no, no, look closer at the sunglasses. The sunglasses had a built in brim. So it was like a mini hat thing. I was like, no, no, yeah, that you should have punched him in his mouth.
00:21:51
sohot
Yeah definitely.
00:21:52
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah, Yeah.
00:21:54
sohot
It's like they're taking all the bad lessons of our art generation and applying them to their their lives.
00:21:59
cltruitt22
Hmm. Yeah. When I see like the giant sunglasses are back.
00:22:02
sohot
Learn all the... Oh, yeah.
00:22:06
cltruitt22
Like and I'm like, No.
00:22:08
sohot
Yeah.
00:22:09
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:22:10
sohot
All their sunglasses. Polarized.
00:22:13
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:22:13
sohot
Polar just so much better than what we had in the 80s and 90s.
00:22:16
cltruitt22
yeah
00:22:17
sohot
Yeah.
00:22:17
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:22:18
sohot
We just squinted a lot.
00:22:19
cltruitt22
You are not vanilla ice. You don't get to wear those sunglasses.
00:22:22
sohot
Even he looked look stupid.
00:22:24
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah, but I'm saying at least he was, you know, a quote unquote famous person.
00:22:31
sohot
I mean, let's see.
00:22:32
cltruitt22
Which Rob Van Winkle, if you're listening, we still love you.
00:22:36
sohot
We do enjoy your music when it comes on, nostalgically.
00:22:39
cltruitt22
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yes, very nostalgically. but I mean, music nowadays sucks. It's just it's hard to be a kid.
00:22:49
sohot
Skindled, that's all we are.
00:22:50
cltruitt22
God.
00:22:53
cltruitt22
Well, my daughter said that somebody in her class, a boy in her class, got a perm a couple of weeks ago.
00:22:53
sohot
Well, this takes me right into topic one. Oh oh yeah, that's a thing. Yeah, yeah.
00:23:00
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:23:02
sohot
Yeah, that's a thing.
00:23:02
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah. It gets one like every six weeks or something, which I was like, wait, it isn't that how you make your hair die?
00:23:05
sohot
Yeah.
00:23:10
cltruitt22
Is it bad for you to get a perm every so often?
00:23:11
sohot
I don't know if that's actually true.
00:23:14
cltruitt22
I don't know. I don't know.
00:23:16
sohot
I used to believe that you didn't wear mesh caps because it pulled your hair out of the roots.
00:23:21
cltruitt22
No.
00:23:21
sohot
That's how we go bald.
00:23:23
cltruitt22
No, it's not. No. You just angered some god.
00:23:29
sohot
Well, I don't know that it doesn't explain because I've angered a lot of gods and I still got error.
00:23:33
cltruitt22
You haven't angered the wrong one, though.
00:23:35
sohot
That's what it is.
00:23:35
cltruitt22
See, that's what it is. Yeah. Yeah. why is It's not a perm, because it's there's nothing permanent about it.
00:23:46
sohot
Well, it's not a permanent marker.
00:23:46
cltruitt22
Isn't that... Yeah, but...
00:23:48
sohot
It's just a marker.
00:23:50
cltruitt22
Yeah, that's true. Oh, gosh. See? God. Oh, what is time?
00:23:58
sohot
Well, nothing is permanent, right?
00:24:00
cltruitt22
Oh, no! Oh, gosh. Yeah. Oh, God. What's topic one?
00:24:09
sohot
Well, it's, it rolls kind of into what I was talking about. So in the 1500s and seven 1600s, right?
00:24:18
cltruitt22
OK.
00:24:19
sohot
Michelangelo and Leonardo. Leonardo da Vinci. There's like, they were like rock stars, right?
00:24:24
cltruitt22
Donatello Raphael.
00:24:27
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:24:29
sohot
They were artists who were rock stars.
00:24:32
cltruitt22
But were they?
00:24:33
sohot
I don't know.
00:24:35
cltruitt22
I think we look back at them, they are, but at the time, did a lot of people know about him?
00:24:40
sohot
I mean, Leonardo was the king of France, like paid him a shit ton of money just to come live at his palace for a while.
00:24:48
cltruitt22
Yeah, okay, yeah, I guess that is Rockstar.
00:24:51
sohot
Yeah, I mean, that's pretty rock star.
00:24:52
cltruitt22
And he painted the 16 chapels.
00:24:55
sohot
No, that's Michelangelo.
00:24:57
cltruitt22
Oh, okay.
00:24:57
sohot
But Sure.
00:25:02
sohot
ah But anyways, like I gotta think about it. Who is the most famous artist of our lifetime?
00:25:07
cltruitt22
a Oh, gosh.
00:25:14
sohot
I have an answer, but it's...
00:25:15
cltruitt22
Is it, I mean, would it be Warhol?
00:25:19
sohot
That's not my answer.
00:25:21
cltruitt22
Were.
00:25:21
sohot
Oh God, hold on.
00:25:22
sohot
on
00:25:24
cltruitt22
Gosh.
00:25:25
sohot
There is only one artist who I would consider a rock star of our lifetime.
00:25:29
cltruitt22
Is it?
00:25:30
sohot
Warhol's is probably a little early for us.
00:25:31
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:25:34
cltruitt22
um Oh, yeah.
00:25:35
sohot
It's a happy little decision.
00:25:38
cltruitt22
Oh, God, Bob Ross is. Yeah, definitely.
00:25:41
sohot
but He's the only rock star artist of our lifetime at all, right?
00:25:42
cltruitt22
God.
00:25:45
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:25:47
sohot
like What happened to that world that we don't hear about artists anymore?
00:25:47
cltruitt22
yeah I would think.
00:25:55
cltruitt22
Well, I think.
00:25:56
sohot
Or it's just the that we're not cultured.
00:25:58
cltruitt22
Well, I think we're culture, is it I think art is a lot different than it used to be also.
00:26:04
sohot
Is it?
00:26:05
cltruitt22
Well, I see these artists and they, you know, they have like the canvas on the ground and they have a paint can and they poke a hole in it and they let it swing around a bunch of times and that's their art.
00:26:17
sohot
Sure. I mean, my second answer was going to be Banksy.
00:26:20
cltruitt22
OK. okay
00:26:22
sohot
I don't really care about his art.
00:26:25
cltruitt22
Yeah. But you know the name.
00:26:27
sohot
But I know the name and I feel like that's the end of the number of people I can say.
00:26:28
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:26:32
sohot
And Bob Ross isn't even alive anymore. So it's down to Banksy and I don't know what he looks like.
00:26:36
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:26:39
cltruitt22
Yeah. For you listening out there, if you've never heard of Bob Ross, just type it in the YouTube and watch it.
00:26:46
sohot
And it's just fall asleep.
00:26:47
cltruitt22
Just watch one of the episodes. He's one of the most Charismatic, caring, delightful human beings have walked this earth.
00:26:55
sohot
Always part of the diamond of kindness.
00:26:59
cltruitt22
There we go. Him, Steve Irwin, Mr. Rogers.
00:27:04
sohot
And Jordy the Forge.
00:27:06
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah.
00:27:10
sohot
It's the diamond of kindness.
00:27:12
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:27:13
sohot
By their powers combined.
00:27:13
cltruitt22
Yeah. Shoo. Get fixed, everything.
00:27:16
sohot
Can't have him in the same room. He would break the world with kindness.
00:27:19
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah. That's, yeah.
00:27:23
sohot
but Art is so...
00:27:25
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:27:25
sohot
I think my theory, when I started thinking about this, this is what I've been thinking about on my vacation.
00:27:30
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:27:31
sohot
My theory is that we don't care about art anymore. Because like when you in the 1500s, when you saw a painting, it blew you away.
00:27:44
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:27:44
sohot
Right? It was like, oh my God, this is a person that I've never met in life, but I know what they look like.
00:27:46
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:27:51
sohot
Now you just psycho. oh They have 38 pictures of Instagram. I know exactly what this person looks like.
00:27:56
cltruitt22
Yeah, that's true.
00:27:58
sohot
I think the camera killed art.
00:27:59
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.

Technology and Human Evolution

00:28:01
cltruitt22
Yeah, because I typed in to Google 21st century artists. And Mark Bradford.
00:28:12
sohot
Never.
00:28:12
cltruitt22
Yayo kasuma.
00:28:14
sohot
Never.
00:28:16
cltruitt22
Yeah. Louie bourgeois.
00:28:20
sohot
So, definitely made a pain.
00:28:21
cltruitt22
Tama abs. I don't Yoshitomi Nara, there's Banksy.
00:28:29
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:28:33
cltruitt22
Richard Prince.
00:28:33
sohot
But none of those people could walk up to me and...
00:28:35
cltruitt22
None of these, I'm like, who are these? I've never heard of these people.
00:28:37
sohot
Right. Yeah. Like, you know what Leonardo da Vinci looks like.
00:28:42
cltruitt22
Peter Dong, that's a made up name.
00:28:44
sohot
Peter does definitely a made a pain.
00:28:46
cltruitt22
That's a made up name.
00:28:49
sohot
you You know what 500 years later, what Peter Leonardo looks like. You have no idea what these people look like.
00:28:55
cltruitt22
Yeah, green, blue, bandana.
00:28:58
sohot
Yeah.
00:29:01
sohot
Very good. Very good.
00:29:04
cltruitt22
Yeah. ah But yeah, you're right. It's but like, you know, we know that Van Gogh cut off his ear and stuff like that.
00:29:13
sohot
Yeah. Yeah, Van Gogh and Rembrandt and all those names that you, at least, um you know the name.
00:29:17
cltruitt22
yeah
00:29:20
sohot
You might not be able to identify a Van Gogh versus a Rembrandt, but...
00:29:23
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah. Well that, and I couldn't tell you, you know, impressionist versus whatever.
00:29:28
sohot
Yeah, Picasso, all of those things.
00:29:29
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:29:30
sohot
You know the names.
00:29:31
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:29:31
sohot
You don't know anybody for less.
00:29:31
cltruitt22
Who's the guy that, who's the painter that had the, it was like all the clocks and everything were melty.
00:29:38
sohot
Salvador Dali.
00:29:39
cltruitt22
Dowdy.
00:29:40
sohot
Yeah.
00:29:40
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:29:42
sohot
But then again, I'm thinking about philosophy. This is a whole, whole brain went crazy.
00:29:45
cltruitt22
Yeah. Hmm.
00:29:49
sohot
You don't have philosophers anymore. Like, can you think of somebody who would say, since Nietzsche is a philosopher, like their job is philosophy.
00:29:57
cltruitt22
I mean, is Jon Stewart the closest?
00:30:04
sohot
Maybe.
00:30:05
cltruitt22
That's all I can think of.
00:30:06
sohot
I don't, I don't know. Like.
00:30:08
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:30:08
sohot
It's just something that was so important for thousands of years and is gone.
00:30:11
cltruitt22
Yeah. Right. Yeah. It's just like, there's this guy or gal that's just there and you just go to sit with them and think.
00:30:23
sohot
Or the, you know, they think about like Socrates and Aristotle and, you know, Hume and all of these people. And you go, these people need a profound impact on how we think as as as as just people.
00:30:35
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:30:38
sohot
nobody does that anymore and
00:30:39
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:30:42
sohot
i don't know why like you think that's it we're just not on the tiktok but it it's not just a tiktok i mean it hasn't been i i don't feel like we've had any philosophers in my lifetime
00:30:45
cltruitt22
Maybe they're on the TikTok.
00:30:48
cltruitt22
Maybe. I don't know. I'm not on the TikTok.
00:30:53
cltruitt22
That maybe.
00:31:00
sohot
Do you feel like you know any philosophers that have been alive?
00:31:03
cltruitt22
Other than you, no.
00:31:03
sohot
You're a whole... Yeah. yeah
00:31:09
cltruitt22
If I could spell century 21st
00:31:09
sohot
Pretty great to call you, be a philosopher.
00:31:14
cltruitt22
century philosophers.
00:31:19
cltruitt22
No. Martha Newsbaum.
00:31:23
cltruitt22
Charles Taylor. I've never heard of these people.
00:31:27
sohot
Sure, I would even say you couldn't name 20th century philosophers.
00:31:33
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:31:37
sohot
Like there's a good chance we didn't, like Socrates wasn't well known outside of like Athens in his lifetime, but everybody knows who Socrates is now.
00:31:47
cltruitt22
And that's the thing, I mean, and then, ah you know, back then, I mean, Athens was a big deal. That was it.
00:31:53
sohot
Sure, yeah. I mean, Chinese would disagree with you, but it's cool.
00:31:57
cltruitt22
Well, yeah.
00:31:59
sohot
Western philosophy.
00:32:00
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:32:00
sohot
Yeah. I just, I don't know why there's these things that seem so important to the world are gone.
00:32:10
cltruitt22
Yeah, 20th century, even I'm not seeing.
00:32:16
cltruitt22
Ludwig Wittgenstein that's a fun that's a fun name yeah Hilary Putnam that name sounds familiar for something yeah uh
00:32:19
sohot
Yeah. The Wittgenstein dilemma. It's a fun name.
00:32:28
sohot
Oh yeah, Mr. Putnam's daughter.
00:32:37
cltruitt22
yeah
00:32:46
cltruitt22
That guy looks angry. Rudolph Carnap. Man, just looks angry.
00:32:55
sohot
and he
00:32:55
cltruitt22
This guy looks like Darren. joof I'm sure he had some insightful things.
00:33:03
cltruitt22
Golly day. Yeah, that that's wow.
00:33:10
cltruitt22
So we don't philosophize and we don't art.
00:33:13
sohot
Yeah.
00:33:14
cltruitt22
Hmm.
00:33:15
sohot
And at one point, I think people would have said the thing that made us humans was philosophy and art.
00:33:22
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:33:23
sohot
And now we just don't do it.
00:33:26
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:33:27
sohot
That's so a little worrisome.
00:33:28
cltruitt22
Hmm.
00:33:31
sohot
We don't sit and...
00:33:31
cltruitt22
So that's that's how the robots are going to take over.
00:33:34
sohot
Yeah.
00:33:35
cltruitt22
They're going to use our newfound weakness in art and philosophy. God, that's it. They'll ask us a question like, what is time?
00:33:45
sohot
Yeah.
00:33:45
cltruitt22
Oh, God.
00:33:46
sohot
it Well, maybe that's the reason we don't have philosophers, is we're worried about different questions now.
00:33:46
cltruitt22
ah
00:33:55
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:33:56
sohot
Like, we're worried about what is space when we're not worried about what is to be human anymore.
00:34:01
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:34:02
sohot
Which, we really need to start worrying about what is to be human now. Because what happens when we're humans who can live 300 years?
00:34:06
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:34:11
sohot
What does that become?
00:34:14
sohot
Cause side to answer this, I watched a whole video on how they think in the 2030s, we're pretty much gonna get very close to immortality.
00:34:16
cltruitt22
It's gonna be hot and sweaty.
00:34:27
cltruitt22
in the 2030s in like 10 years from now.
00:34:28
sohot
Yes. In like 10 years from now.
00:34:34
cltruitt22
Man.
00:34:34
sohot
I don't know if that's true.
00:34:36
cltruitt22
Yeah. Well, I guess, you know, like the. If uploading your conscience kind of thing.
00:34:43
sohot
Well, I mean, just, just think about modern medicine. Like we're, we're solving heart disease.
00:34:46
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:34:50
sohot
It's not gone, but we're, gen we're a couple of generations of medicines, well better than Lipitor now, you know, you know, but with diabetes is is, I think something we're going to have a real answer for sooner rather than later.
00:34:53
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:35:00
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah.
00:35:11
sohot
You know, there's still going to be people who die from diabetes, I'm sure, but I think it'll drop.
00:35:13
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah, yeah, it'll drop.
00:35:18
sohot
We've, I mean, we solved AIDS.
00:35:21
cltruitt22
Well, and I think. Yeah, and we've kind of talked about it before.
00:35:24
sohot
I hate to say that.
00:35:26
cltruitt22
I mean, this next generation that They are healthier.
00:35:32
sohot
Yeah.
00:35:33
cltruitt22
Cigarette smoking is drastically down.
00:35:35
sohot
Gone. What?
00:35:37
cltruitt22
yeah And, I mean, I see so many ads now for alcohol-free, you know, beer, liquor, and wine because...
00:35:47
sohot
Oh yeah. There's a whole i alcohol free shop in Baltimore now that just serves alcohol free beers and wants because kids aren't drinking alcohol anymore.
00:35:53
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:35:56
cltruitt22
Right, yeah.
00:35:57
sohot
Yeah. But I think about like cancer treatments.
00:36:01
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:02
sohot
I mean, I know it's weird to say because we just lost somebody to cancer, but we also just have three people who have survived cancer that would never have survived 20 years ago.
00:36:12
cltruitt22
yeah Yeah.
00:36:16
sohot
You know, look at, look at our retired Lieutenant who just, you know, got to ring the bell on his, on his treatment.
00:36:17
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:22
cltruitt22
Yeah, he rang the bell the other day.
00:36:24
sohot
And nobody thought he, they, they basically said, this is just going to be the end of your life.
00:36:25
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:29
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:30
sohot
You know, it's crazy to me. That's so we're, we're closer and closer to solving those issues.
00:36:34
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:37
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:36:39
sohot
And then we have to think about what it means to be human when you can live to be 200.
00:36:40
cltruitt22
Oh my gosh.
00:36:44
sohot
If you live to be 200, you can live to be 500.
00:36:52
cltruitt22
a
00:36:53
sohot
I mean, that's my goal is to retire right before they fix all the problems.
00:36:54
cltruitt22
Yes.
00:36:57
sohot
And then I get to live forever on my retirement.
00:37:00
cltruitt22
Oh my God. Yep. no No, no, no, no. This says pension till death.
00:37:05
sohot
That's right.
00:37:06
cltruitt22
Haha.
00:37:07
sohot
Yeah.
00:37:07
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:37:08
sohot
Yeah. It's, you know, I mean,
00:37:12
cltruitt22
Oh, but what's it? You can't afford it anymore. Yeah. Just give levy the taxes from a local municipality to me. Give me my fiefdom.
00:37:20
sohot
Barring, barring trauma, you know, it's conceivable that we we can live well past what we consider the lifespan of a human.
00:37:22
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:37:26
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:37:30
cltruitt22
yeah Well, I mean, just think.
00:37:30
sohot
Even you and I.
00:37:32
cltruitt22
Well, I mean, what, uh, a hundred years ago, we would be elderly.
00:37:39
sohot
Sure.
00:37:41
cltruitt22
So.
00:37:42
sohot
Well, I just i ah I think I was talking about to this and my brother the other day, my grandfather, when I was a kid is my age now. And he was so much older looking than I am now.
00:37:54
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:37:55
sohot
You know. And maybe that's my perception of myself.
00:38:01
cltruitt22
I.
00:38:01
sohot
But boy, I look at pictures and I go, Jesus.
00:38:04
cltruitt22
Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. No, it's, it's true. Like I was looking at some pictures today at lunch and I was just like, wow, people looked old.
00:38:08
sohot
Yeah.
00:38:14
sohot
Yeah.
00:38:16
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:38:18
sohot
So really what we're ah really saying here is I need people to start paying me money to be a full-time philosopher. And I will think about these deep thoughts and send out a report.
00:38:25
cltruitt22
yeah i it's Somebody needs to. Yeah.
00:38:31
sohot
And I can't be interrupted by weird things like working.
00:38:35
cltruitt22
and No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Because that'd be a thing. As soon as you started to get like in the thought train, you'd have to get ready for work.
00:38:42
sohot
Yeah, and we don't need that. We need me.
00:38:43
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah. Or if you were driving to work and, you know, an epiphany hit, you've got to be able to pull over and put that down, pen to paper.
00:38:51
sohot
Yeah, I mean, I can't be in the middle of a call and something hate me and then I forget about it.
00:38:53
cltruitt22
No. Yeah.
00:38:55
sohot
No, we can't have, we can't risk it.
00:38:56
cltruitt22
Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. No. No.
00:38:59
sohot
So government subsidy at least.
00:38:59
cltruitt22
It's too dangerous. This is what separates us from the robots.
00:39:03
sohot
Yeah. If you all want harmony in our world, you just need to donate money to me now.
00:39:10
cltruitt22
Yeah. It's easy.
00:39:12
sohot
And right now on your phone, on your Zoom should be flashing a 1-800 number that you can donate money to.
00:39:17
cltruitt22
youre serious There it is.
00:39:20
sohot
There it is.
00:39:20
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:39:24
sohot
Yeah. Those were my deep thoughts for this vacation.
00:39:27
cltruitt22
Those are, those are, those are deep thoughts.
00:39:29
sohot
You know, this is what I do at 10 o'clock at

Family Dynamics and Living Conditions

00:39:32
sohot
night.
00:39:32
cltruitt22
10 o'clock at night.
00:39:35
sohot
I know, slate.
00:39:36
cltruitt22
Oof. Ooh. Wait, side tangent. to Why doesn't every sleeping area in America have a ceiling fan? Or a fan of some sort?
00:39:53
sohot
I don't know, but I have a same fan I'm not allowed to use and it drives me crazy.
00:39:57
cltruitt22
What do you mean you're not allowed to use it?
00:39:59
sohot
The wife hates it.
00:40:00
cltruitt22
What?
00:40:02
sohot
I don't understand.
00:40:03
cltruitt22
Does it make her cold?
00:40:05
sohot
She just doesn't like the air blowing on her.
00:40:07
cltruitt22
Oh, my gosh.
00:40:08
sohot
It drives me crazy.
00:40:10
cltruitt22
What do you wait to to to put the blanket over her head?
00:40:14
sohot
I want to just take the pillow over and just.
00:40:16
cltruitt22
Yeah,
00:40:18
sohot
Yeah. Yeah.
00:40:19
cltruitt22
yeah God, yeah, we're on vacation and the one night we bring a fan with us now, but the one night I hadn't set it up yet.
00:40:21
sohot
Yeah. No, everybody needs.
00:40:27
cltruitt22
And I'm later, I was like, why am I so miserable? Oh, because there's no air movement.
00:40:31
sohot
Hmm. Yeah, I slept at station two the other day on overtime and there was no fan in that cubby and I was like, what the crap?
00:40:38
cltruitt22
with I thought every cub, I thought every cubby had a fan.
00:40:39
sohot
What kind of hotel is this?
00:40:42
sohot
ah Have you been to station two anymore?
00:40:45
cltruitt22
No.
00:40:45
sohot
Looks like a frat house is getting ready to sink into the swamp. It's insane over there.
00:40:49
cltruitt22
ah Really?
00:40:51
sohot
Oh God, it's terrible.
00:40:54
cltruitt22
ah And that's the newest station.
00:40:55
sohot
Yeah. yeah just this I know it's only one station that's holding zone over there station one at least we're not swinging into the swamp so we put on the side of the building not that slow I mean a slow sink would be like an inch over 30 years a couple inches over 10 years at this point yeah
00:41:04
cltruitt22
yeah oh
00:41:11
cltruitt22
it's a It's a slow sink. No, it's not.
00:41:24
cltruitt22
yeah The furthest I think I measured was like three and a half.
00:41:29
sohot
I mean, it's not good.
00:41:30
cltruitt22
Yeah, that's not good.
00:41:33
sohot
It hasn't been around for three decades.
00:41:35
cltruitt22
No.
00:41:37
sohot
everything But you walk in the engine bay and the pillars that are supporting the building are exposed.
00:41:38
cltruitt22
oh
00:41:44
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:41:44
sohot
It's not good.
00:41:45
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:47
sohot
And that very large concrete tower that's got cracks that are leaning seems like a real problem.
00:41:52
cltruitt22
No, it's not leaning.
00:41:54
sohot
No.
00:41:55
cltruitt22
That's all in your mind.
00:41:56
sohot
Yeah, it is all in your mind because the whole pad is leaning. So you're like, oh, it looks straight.
00:42:01
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:42:04
sohot
Yeah.
00:42:05
cltruitt22
ah But luckily we got the roof sandblasted.
00:42:08
sohot
Yeah. I, I was worried that they were going to repaint that roof and it would be enough to topple the building. So, you know, that extra little weight, take the whole thing down.
00:42:16
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah.
00:42:20
cltruitt22
Hmm.
00:42:22
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah.
00:42:23
sohot
It's bad.
00:42:25
cltruitt22
yeah
00:42:26
sohot
It might not make it through my career.
00:42:29
cltruitt22
I think it'll last hours.
00:42:31
sohot
You think?
00:42:32
cltruitt22
Yeah, I think it'll be one of those like Frampton retires, and as he walks out the door, it just. welcome They like start shaking, he's like running out.
00:42:38
sohot
Like he closes the office door and everything comes down.
00:42:44
cltruitt22
yeah
00:42:46
sohot
I could see that.
00:42:47
cltruitt22
Oh, I'll be there to see it.
00:42:48
sohot
Yeah. Yeah. I won't send me pictures.
00:42:53
cltruitt22
Yeah, I will. Yeah. Yeah.
00:42:58
sohot
Well, maybe we're on the topic too.
00:43:00
cltruitt22
Yeah, topic two. So you thought of things on your summer vacation. I was going to, you know, say what are some good memories or things, you know, you like about summer vacations? Because I got, well, and this is but one of those deep thoughts, like, I guess we're just ingrained because of school, that summer vacation is a thing.
00:43:26
sohot
Yeah.
00:43:26
cltruitt22
Because we have that time off from school. I wonder if, you know, people that get the, because there's people ah in the United States now, but across the globe that go to year round school. So I'm sure they don't think the same way as a summer vacation.
00:43:41
sohot
I don't know though, but in Europe they think it's a big thing, right?
00:43:41
cltruitt22
They just have holiday. Yeah, but they have like breaks and stuff like that throughout the year.
00:43:48
sohot
But they do like a three week holiday. That's like a normal thing in the Europe's.
00:43:51
cltruitt22
Yeah. The Europe's.
00:43:54
sohot
Ah, the Europe's. What do I have my best memory of summer vacation?
00:43:57
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:44:00
sohot
To the Gulf one year with my family. That was pretty cool.
00:44:03
cltruitt22
The Gulf of Mexico.
00:44:04
sohot
Yeah, yeah, Mexico.
00:44:05
cltruitt22
um Okay.
00:44:06
sohot
Yeah, that was pretty cool. What's Canada for summer vacation one year?
00:44:07
cltruitt22
Oh, I bet that was nice.
00:44:10
sohot
That was really nice.
00:44:11
cltruitt22
Because it was cooler.
00:44:11
sohot
that would sot under This is the theory I don't get. Why go to somewhere where it's hotter in the summer?
00:44:17
cltruitt22
I don't know. I see people like, oh, go to Florida.
00:44:19
sohot
Why go to Florida?
00:44:21
cltruitt22
Why? One, why are you going to Florida?
00:44:23
sohot
Well, fair.
00:44:23
cltruitt22
Two, why are you going to Florida in the hot, swampy season?
00:44:26
sohot
Yeah.
00:44:27
cltruitt22
God. Yeah.
00:44:28
sohot
Why go to Florida? Why go to the beach?
00:44:29
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:44:30
sohot
It's so hot.
00:44:31
cltruitt22
And Sandy. It gets everywhere.
00:44:33
sohot
It gets everywhere.
00:44:37
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:44:37
sohot
Yeah, my my friend's a teacher and she always works over the summers.
00:44:41
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:44:42
sohot
And this year see she works for a camp. And this year she's like, I just, I can't do it anymore. She wanted to do part-time and they were like, man, we're just going to get rid of you.
00:44:51
cltruitt22
Oh, wow.
00:44:51
sohot
She wasn't very happy about that, but you know, whatever.
00:44:53
cltruitt22
Yeah, that's not. Yeah, that's unfortunate.
00:44:54
sohot
So this is like her first summer vacation since she's been a teacher.
00:44:58
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:44:59
sohot
And she's like, definitely enjoying her summer vacation. Every time I see her, I'm like, I hate you a little bit more.
00:45:07
sohot
Yeah.
00:45:07
cltruitt22
Can't drink all day if you'll start in the morning.
00:45:10
sohot
I mean, she's definitely living up to that life. And I mean, good honor.
00:45:14
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:45:17
sohot
You know, I think it'd be great for everybody to have that kind of time off.
00:45:24
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:45:24
sohot
You know, you would just be a happier person.
00:45:26
cltruitt22
Well, I think and a lot of people need to feel less guilty about taking time off.
00:45:33
sohot
Yeah. Yeah.
00:45:35
cltruitt22
And bosses stop making people feel guilty about taking time off.
00:45:41
sohot
Well, you know, it's always my anger at our job. They give us plenty of time. Just can't take it off.
00:45:47
cltruitt22
Right. Yeah.
00:45:48
sohot
You know, it's.
00:45:51
cltruitt22
Well, you can take it off just not when you want.
00:45:53
sohot
Yeah, I'm sure if I want to take.
00:45:54
cltruitt22
I look right here on the calendar. there There were seven times in the middle of winter when yeah it's cold and windy that you could have taken off from midnight to 7 a.m.
00:46:02
sohot
Yeah, I could have taken February 2nd, which is a Tuesday off. So everybody's favorite time of year to take off.
00:46:09
cltruitt22
ah Especially on Tuesday. but Hey, well, you got to celebrate ground all day.
00:46:11
sohot
Yeah, especially on Tuesday.
00:46:14
sohot
Sure, I'm sorry, primary third.
00:46:16
cltruitt22
Oh, okay.
00:46:16
sohot
I wasn't even, you know, but whatever it was, it was that, I mean, there was a chief officer at department who had that conversation with me and I'm like, you're ridiculous.
00:46:19
cltruitt22
ah Yeah.
00:46:26
cltruitt22
yeah I will say though, sometimes taking that random weekday off is delightful.
00:46:26
sohot
Yeah.
00:46:30
sohot
Oh yeah. It's.
00:46:31
cltruitt22
Because I'll look at the calendar and be like, oh, look, it's not a holiday. So my kids are in school. My wife has to work. It's me and the dogs.
00:46:42
sohot
It's fair.
00:46:43
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:46:43
sohot
It is, it is nice.
00:46:45
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:46:45
sohot
You know, especially nice when you're on shift work, like I am and you're just like, I'm just going to take this brand of Tuesday off and have a whole week off.
00:46:51
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:46:52
sohot
You know, it is nice, but sometimes it'd be nice to be like, I take like three weeks off and then, you know, if you have kids and you want to take like you, this is your last, your daughter's last summer vacation with you, which would have been nice for you to take a nice long vacation away.
00:46:59
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:47:04
cltruitt22
Shut up.
00:47:08
cltruitt22
Yeah, well, my youngest while we're on vacation, so I guess this is our last family vacation. I was like, no, she said, well, I mean, next year, you know, this will be in college.
00:47:16
sohot
Well.
00:47:19
cltruitt22
I'm like, we will still do things. It's not. Things don't end just because the oldest is going to college. She will have breaks, too. And if it doesn't match up with our trip, you know, that's on her. But yeah, we'll still do stuff. Oh, OK. God.
00:47:37
sohot
I mean, if you think back to when you went to college, you didn't want to come back for hanging out with your family during summer break. You go out with your friends.
00:47:44
cltruitt22
I didn't go away to college, though.
00:47:46
sohot
Well, that's fair. It's fair.
00:47:49
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:47:51
sohot
I mean, she might meet new people and be like, we're going to go to, I could just see your daughter and be like, I'm going to Bermuda for three weeks.
00:47:54
cltruitt22
Oh, yeah. And that's it. And look, if she does yeah more power to her.
00:48:01
cltruitt22
Oh, no, I couldn't see her doing that.
00:48:03
sohot
No, no.
00:48:03
cltruitt22
No, no. The the little one. Yes.
00:48:07
sohot
Yes. She can do it tomorrow.
00:48:08
cltruitt22
Yeah. ah Yeah. Oh, yeah.
00:48:10
sohot
Yeah.
00:48:11
cltruitt22
Yeah. Hey, there's this van parked outside that said free trip to Bermuda <unk> the door shut. Wait, where'd she go?
00:48:17
sohot
Yeah. Yeah.
00:48:18
cltruitt22
Oh, Well, one of.
00:48:19
sohot
Definitely see that happening.
00:48:22
cltruitt22
my oldest friends, she's going to college in Hawaii.
00:48:26
sohot
Ooh!
00:48:27
cltruitt22
And we're like, oh, gosh, I guess, you know, we'll see you next summer. She's like, no, once I'm going, I'm going.
00:48:32
sohot
I mean...
00:48:32
cltruitt22
We're like, oh, OK.
00:48:34
sohot
Fair point.
00:48:37
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:48:37
sohot
I mean, she's gonna realize how expensive Hawaii is.
00:48:40
cltruitt22
Well, yeah. Yeah. And there's only so much poi you can eat.
00:48:41
sohot
Yeah.
00:48:43
sohot
I don't know, I could be a lot of poi.
00:48:45
cltruitt22
Yeah. And what's it?
00:48:48
cltruitt22
What's the weird hamburger egg gravy thing they eat?
00:48:53
sohot
I don't know.
00:48:54
cltruitt22
Mafongo? No, that's something different.
00:48:58
cltruitt22
Oh, Hawaii.
00:48:58
sohot
Never.
00:49:01
sohot
Never been to Hawaii, sadly.
00:49:05
cltruitt22
Oh, burger egg.
00:49:06
sohot
Yeah. I'd like to go.
00:49:11
cltruitt22
Let's see. Loco Moco.
00:49:13
sohot
Loko moko.
00:49:15
cltruitt22
Steamed rice with a juicy hamburger patty, brown gravy, and a fried egg.
00:49:21
sohot
Doesn't sound terrible.
00:49:23
cltruitt22
no I guess it's like their version of poutine almost.
00:49:27
sohot
Yeah, yeah.
00:49:28
cltruitt22
Instead of fries, you had rice.
00:49:34
cltruitt22
I remember my family. We used to go to Ocean City all the time.
00:49:38
sohot
Yeah.
00:49:38
cltruitt22
It's right there.
00:49:40
sohot
We never very rarely went to the beach beach when we were kids.
00:49:45
cltruitt22
OK.
00:49:47
sohot
we We had a place on the bay we would go to, but we'd only go there for like a couple of days a week and then we'd come out.
00:49:50
cltruitt22
okay
00:49:54
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah, I can I can remember the road trips to, you know, the beach or wherever. Sometimes that was even more fun than the actual destination.
00:50:08
sohot
The... Sure? Yeah. We always did, like July 4th was always at one, the family, the big family unit got together and went somewhere.
00:50:19
cltruitt22
See, my family never did that.
00:50:20
sohot
I don't know. It's probably healthier for you guys.
00:50:22
cltruitt22
Yeah, my family, it was only just, you know, like the parents and the kids. I remember one year like we went to Ocean City and it was like four couples that work together all went down together. So like all those kids were playing together and the parents were together. But that was like the closest we ever did to that. Now my wife's family, they've always been like huge family trips once a year and this and that. And it's weird. I don't know.
00:50:52
sohot
Well, I would say now my family goes the other way. We're like, now that we did all that as kids now, nobody can say each other. Yeah.
00:51:03
sohot
Yeah.
00:51:03
cltruitt22
Maybe you just took a trip with your mother.
00:51:06
sohot
Uh, yeah, I did do that.
00:51:12
sohot
Yeah.
00:51:12
cltruitt22
I mean,
00:51:14
sohot
I mean, which was fine. We just, you know, by the extended family, though, we wouldn't go places anymore.
00:51:23
cltruitt22
i mean I can remember we did you guys have like family reunions?
00:51:23
sohot
Like the cousins and uncles.
00:51:27
sohot
No.
00:51:28
cltruitt22
Really, we had those.
00:51:30
sohot
Yeah, never once.
00:51:31
cltruitt22
i him I mean, there was like 100 people there, are easy. I was like, you know, everybody get together, get a picture with your third cousin, whatever. Hey, yeah, this is fun.
00:51:46
sohot
Yeah, would that have been fun?
00:51:48
cltruitt22
I don't know.
00:51:50
sohot
hanging out with all the people that you...
00:51:51
cltruitt22
I remember my dad's side of it. They would have it like, gosh. Like up near Like somewhere in Talbot County, usually. And then my mom's side, they would have it down in Fenwick. And there was some park that they would like rent out, I guess, or something. But yeah.
00:52:17
cltruitt22
Yeah, there's your you know, there's your great and uncle Phil. But everybody called it Uncle Filthy.
00:52:26
sohot
worry so we were we were the black sheep of the family so we didn't definitely didn't do that I've heard tell that they had failing reunions that we weren't invited to yeah yeah yeah I knew I knew this whole time
00:52:27
cltruitt22
Hey, he was a painter and he was always like covered in paint and stuff. like house painter kind of thing.
00:52:41
cltruitt22
Her tail. Look, one of them's listening right now. Damn it, Ron found out. What's it and thinking about it now, it's like, you know, somebody was like, oh, wouldn't that be nice? I'm like, I don't know. Maybe I don't want to think about the logistics of it, though.
00:53:05
sohot
Right.
00:53:05
cltruitt22
It's hard enough to get my family to agree to dinner, let alone extended people that I don't really know.
00:53:12
sohot
But if you're not talk to them now, why would you want to spend time with them?
00:53:15
cltruitt22
Yeah, well, and I think part of it is with social media, you don't have to.
00:53:20
sohot
It's fair to.
00:53:21
cltruitt22
Yeah, like you said earlier, you know, you see pictures and stuff like that. It's like, oh, look, like I was talking to my brother today. I was like, oh, yeah, see, you know, our Cousin is, you know, pregnant again. He's like, well, she had a baby like a month ago. It's like shows me off and I see, you know, stuff from her on social media then.
00:53:40
sohot
Yeah, we...
00:53:41
cltruitt22
But again, I didn't have to, you know, hang out with her.
00:53:45
sohot
I don't hang out with people I don't want to hang out with.

Online Identity and Privacy Concerns

00:53:49
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:53:49
sohot
That's how I always do it.
00:53:51
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:53:51
sohot
Why waste my time? If I don't want to see you now, it's like the whole idea of a high school reunion.
00:53:56
cltruitt22
Oh.
00:53:57
sohot
I haven't talked to you in 25 years, why would I want to talk to you today?
00:53:59
cltruitt22
Right. Yeah. When I talked to three or four of the people I graduated high school with all the time, it worked. So. Yeah.
00:54:09
sohot
Right. slightly Slightly different for me.
00:54:13
cltruitt22
Yes, yes.
00:54:14
sohot
I didn't go to a one-room schoolhouse.
00:54:16
cltruitt22
It was not one room or five.
00:54:21
cltruitt22
I'd say we were talking the other day, I can't remember what it was. Somebody's asking me about graduation classes. I was like, yeah, I graduated with 62 people. They're like, did you go to some weird private school? No, public school.
00:54:35
sohot
Well, you know.
00:54:38
sohot
It's a different world out there in the bumpkin land.
00:54:42
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah, yeah. God, I remember, let's see, I was, shoo, 15, 15 or so, and my aunt's family lived with us in our house for like two months.
00:55:00
sohot
Oh.
00:55:01
cltruitt22
There were three of us, mom, me and my brother, and then my aunt and her three daughters. Yeah, it was it was bad.
00:55:11
sohot
Sounds like a Braider Bunch movie.
00:55:15
sohot
Sounds awful.
00:55:16
cltruitt22
It was it was.
00:55:17
sohot
Sounds terrible.
00:55:19
cltruitt22
Yeah,
00:55:20
sohot
Yeah. Do you still talk to any of those people?
00:55:22
cltruitt22
yeah yeah.
00:55:23
sohot
Oh.
00:55:25
cltruitt22
Yeah, the middle and the youngest of the daughters and my aunt.
00:55:26
sohot
Surprise.
00:55:32
cltruitt22
So they actually live right next door to my mom.
00:55:34
sohot
Oh.
00:55:35
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:55:36
sohot
That's fun.
00:55:37
cltruitt22
Which side change is how we knew. The Fire Marshal's wife is because she was good friends with my youngest cousin, so she would hang out over there all the time. Yep.
00:55:52
sohot
That's fun.
00:55:52
cltruitt22
Yeah. and but You know, it's not six degrees of separation in Wacomico, it's like two.
00:56:01
sohot
Yeah.
00:56:02
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yo, Fred.
00:56:03
sohot
I couldn't even tell you.
00:56:04
cltruitt22
Yep.
00:56:04
sohot
I couldn't even tell you where my first cousins live anymore.
00:56:07
cltruitt22
Oh.
00:56:09
sohot
Well I did just see one of them today.
00:56:09
cltruitt22
I think I've got one that lives in Carolina now, I think.
00:56:15
cltruitt22
I don't know. There was one. She was a skater, like a figure skater, roller skater. She was really good. I don't know what ever happened to her. Yeah.
00:56:24
sohot
It's been on the Olympics three times.
00:56:26
cltruitt22
No, no, we would have heard about that, I think.
00:56:30
sohot
You would hope.
00:56:30
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because her parents still talk to my mom. So. That's the other thing, the weird schisms that happen in families and.
00:56:40
sohot
oh yes I can't go into my family in that way, but my family is nothing but schisms.
00:56:41
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:56:44
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:56:49
sohot
I've got an uncle who's, we think, living in the woods somewhere.
00:56:52
cltruitt22
Oh, cool.
00:56:53
sohot
And no one will talk to him.
00:56:54
cltruitt22
Oh, wait, like living in the woods because he wants to be like
00:56:55
sohot
Yeah.
00:56:58
cltruitt22
off the grid or living in the woods because he's a homeless person?
00:57:05
sohot
Column A, column B kind of thing.
00:57:08
cltruitt22
OK.
00:57:09
sohot
Yeah.
00:57:10
cltruitt22
All right.
00:57:10
sohot
Yeah.
00:57:11
cltruitt22
Is he hurting himself?
00:57:14
sohot
Don't know.
00:57:15
cltruitt22
Is he hurting other people?
00:57:16
sohot
Don't know.
00:57:18
cltruitt22
I say if if the answer to both those questions was no, they bully for him.
00:57:18
sohot
To be honest.
00:57:24
sohot
Sure.
00:57:24
cltruitt22
But yeah.
00:57:26
sohot
i am I don't even know what state he lives in.
00:57:30
cltruitt22
It sounds like a state of delusion.
00:57:30
sohot
Yeah. Well, he's always had a real mental health issues.
00:57:34
cltruitt22
Hmm. Oh, gosh, poor guy.
00:57:36
sohot
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I want to ask his sisters about it. Well, he' saw he's this. No, he's mentally ill.
00:57:46
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:57:47
sohot
and All in this forever. I knew it when I was three, I think.
00:57:51
cltruitt22
Hmm. Hmm.
00:57:53
sohot
Yeah.
00:57:54
cltruitt22
I wonder if for his survival kit, he has a pot with a lid.
00:57:58
sohot
You should. It's the most important tool you have.
00:58:03
sohot
You should just join the gym and then you can get swole all time and get everything.
00:58:06
cltruitt22
Yeah, yeah.
00:58:07
sohot
Yeah.
00:58:08
cltruitt22
right I, I, Cytangent, the outdoorsy stuff. I saw this Instagram reel or something and this guy was like, oh yeah, splitting wood is so hard. Here's an easy way to do it without an axe. I was like, okay, I gotta see this. This knucklehead was taking a hand saw and sawing in like halfway through the little mini log at the top and the bottom on opposite sides. And then we'd take it and beat the hell of it against a stump. And it would shatter and be like, oh, so it's so good to split.
00:58:40
sohot
You could have just used the axe.
00:58:40
cltruitt22
How is that? and was Yeah, how is that easier than an axe or a hatchet?
00:58:49
sohot
Everybody needs to have a gimmick to get on the internet.
00:58:50
cltruitt22
I guess.
00:58:53
sohot
Not me.
00:58:56
cltruitt22
You're still going to make your survival video about the pot
00:59:01
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:59:02
sohot
I'll jump on that, just like the 14 YouTube channels why tell my wife tells me I should start.
00:59:06
cltruitt22
14. All right.
00:59:07
sohot
Oh my god, all the time. You should start a YouTube channel about this, I don't want to.
00:59:09
cltruitt22
Yeah. Yeah.
00:59:11
sohot
Well, you should, I don't want to.
00:59:14
cltruitt22
Maybe she's secretly filming you.
00:59:14
sohot
I don't want... I wouldn't...
00:59:16
cltruitt22
we We found out that she's secretly posting you on social media.
00:59:18
sohot
Yeah, yeah, she's not so secret about it. She just does it against my will. That's not so much a secret.
00:59:27
cltruitt22
That's not.
00:59:31
sohot
And then I'm the bad guy, because I say I don't want it to happen.
00:59:34
cltruitt22
Yeah.
00:59:35
sohot
Yeah.
00:59:36
cltruitt22
God, you should start a different in social media account and be like, you know, Rando picks a sherry.
00:59:42
sohot
That's what I said I was going to do. I said, I'm just going to start picking.
00:59:44
cltruitt22
Let me guess, she got upset.
00:59:46
sohot
Oh yeah.
00:59:47
cltruitt22
Yeah. Oh, she was on the other foot.
00:59:47
sohot
Yeah. Yeah. She's like, well, I don't want those people writing to people knowing what they look like. I'm like, well, it's weird. It's weird.
00:59:54

sohot
Damn. Internet.
01:00:24
cltruitt22
cheaply hire somebody to sit around your house like a stalker. And maybe that would prove to your wife that you don't need to be on social media. And she would stop posting the pictures.
01:00:36
sohot
that's
01:00:39
sohot
I have an awesome idea.
01:00:42
cltruitt22
Until the person gets, you know, actually obsessed with you.
01:00:48
cltruitt22

cltruitt22
Ooh.
01:01:21
sohot
Yeah. And he doesn't understand that you don't have to put village of Biscayne Park, Biscayne Park, Florida, village manager, because it just makes you look dumb.
