Introduction and Ordering Dilemma
00:00:00
Speaker
Hey there, guys. I'm Bobby. This is Steffy Steph. Steffy Steph, where are we? We're ordering a Mufalata. We're at Jimmy's as a local Dallas favorite. Jimmy's food store. There's a hat. You should get one. Oh, yeah. You know, so we're on the motorcycles. This is motorcycle diaries. Pizza stone. You know, we came here on motorcycles. How are we going to get a big old sandwich with all of it back on the motorcycle? Eat it in your stomach.
00:00:27
Speaker
Okay, I guess
Grocery Store Exploration
00:00:29
Speaker
that's the thing. Look at all this pasta. You know, being in this store. Yeah, this is cool. I'm gonna have to get some pasta. Can we get groceries here? No, like we're literally on motorcycles. Remember that squidding from Italy? Yes. Oh my gosh. We're looking at Linguini Alniro di Sepia. Sepia. Sepia. And how would you describe that color? Black.
00:00:53
Speaker
So it's a black noodle and they use squid ink to do that. We had that when we were in Italy.
00:01:00
Speaker
I think Nero is black and I think Evia is squid. Well, maybe we get someone to fact check this. Your helmet thing is off there, by the way, just FYI.
Helmet Humor and Mishaps
00:01:13
Speaker
So we're in this really cool, authentic Italian, what would you call it? Little Italian Groceria grocery store. Anyways, we're here. We're ordering a sandwich. Love sandwiches. A what? Traceria, is that right?
00:01:29
Speaker
That's gonna fall off right there. Steph's like touching all these little glass containers. She almost ran into someone with a cart. What I would say, we still have our motorcycle helmets on. Should we get back near the sandwiches so we hear the sandwich being called?
00:01:52
Speaker
Probably so we're in a store. We got our motorcycle a tire ordered from that dude. Oh we did he was really nice You tried to order a small sandwich to share because you just told me you want
Stephanie's 2024 Goals
00:02:02
Speaker
to lose weight. That's one So that I'm glad that's a perfect segue the looks we're getting from people with helmets on is actually quite funny But it's great when you're in a store like this. You don't have to be beside each other you can fully communicate anyways
00:02:20
Speaker
Life beats man, that's cool. Okay. What do you need to do? Stephanie our ganter in 2024 No, stop early doing a podcast you can't my three things are getting up early I'd love to get up at 4 30 in the morning. I want to win a race for money and what kind of race a running race I
00:02:44
Speaker
running. I want to be a little bit better of a hockey player. I want to know how to appreciate a wine and more so describe it in some intelligible terms other than, hey, you just blend it. You just blended in three into two things. They're hockey. Did you say?
00:03:03
Speaker
There had to be a limit on the number of things? No, but you said there's three things I want to do and then you just start spilling off things. Oh, sorry. When I say sorry, I just, I have, I don't know, I don't know why. It was just a general, look at these cookies. Oh my gosh. This is where we, no, stop, stop yawning. We're literally, we're recording something. You can't yawn like that. So look at these red wines. Right now I'm making,
00:03:33
Speaker
Back to 2024. Oh, yeah, I know. One of the things was I wanted to be able to scribe red wine in more intelligible, you know, words than just, hey, it's good. Wow. Okay. Anything else? I, we got the, you want to win a race. You want to get up early. Yeah. You want to get up early.
00:04:01
Speaker
I want to get up early. I'd really like to run a little leaner in 2024. I'm sitting at about... Listen, don't say your weight. Why not? I don't know. I don't have a problem with it. I'm 5'3", about 125 solid. I'd love to run a little lighter, a little leaner. That's about it.
00:04:27
Speaker
You know, also just looking at more, uh, you know, business opportunities and trying to figure out proper investment style, how to be a director, things like that, confrontation management. What's your, what's your 2024 looking like? Oh, thanks for asking us. What are we going to get around to that? You know, I want to do things that are good for the body and the soul in 2024. What do you think of that? Tell me more about that.
00:04:54
Speaker
Well, you know, I've been on this exercise thing for about two years and I kick up the intensity and time. How many miles are you up to? Stop. Listen, running is hard. Yeah. You were a college runner. Absolutely hard. You know, really challenging.
Comical Podcasting Quarrel
00:05:12
Speaker
It really is. And running is not, watch, you got someone behind you trying to get through with the, yeah, don't get in the fight. Again, I have no peripheral vision.
00:05:22
Speaker
You're not wrong. They're like running into people and they're like, what the fuck? Are you serious? Sorry. I'm literally looking for a replacement for you on the podcast. Well, I'm looking for a replacement for you. You cannot keep saying bad words. I didn't say a bad word.
00:05:49
Speaker
I started to say it. You started and then you stopped. I stopped. So it doesn't count. This is actually a lovely beer right here, Isaac. That's what our place had. Yeah, I've had that at the Italian place. Yeah, very good. So body, I got a kick up intensity. I've got to do weights. I never liked doing weights. I was never kind of tiny.
00:06:11
Speaker
But as you get older, you got to put on muscle mass. Plain and simple. I got to do three days a week. Weights. Yeah. And then soul. I am worn out. We did too much stuff in September, October, November.
00:06:31
Speaker
We really did. You know, we did the ADA annual session. That was fun and great, busy, exhausting. Then we hiked Machu Picchu to Peru. If you haven't checked out those episodes on the podcast, check it out. Here are the adventures, see it on YouTube. That was fun, yet exhausting. And Thailand was exhausting. We need more grounding.
00:06:54
Speaker
Yoga. I want to do more yoga.
Bobby's 2024 Aspirations
00:06:57
Speaker
Yeah, you took me. I think yoga after work. I like yoga. Yes, I like yoga. And you took me to an advanced yoga class to get me back into yoga. I almost died. Stop yawning. You did not almost die. There's nothing wrong with yawning. Yawning doesn't mean you're tired or bored.
00:07:20
Speaker
It means literally both of those. Well, that's what I'm saying. I see someone yawn in front of him like, man. My brain just needs more oxygen. Talk to my brain. I've tried. It doesn't work real well. So soul, what do I do for my soul? I think you need to get in touch with
00:07:45
Speaker
the people around you and lean into deep connection. I think you struggle with that. I think it will be good for your soul to try to connect deeply with only like just like have a like five people or less and try to figure out your kind of important relationships and I think you're really good at superficial relationships and you're a lot of fun and I think for your soul though
00:08:12
Speaker
When you talk about a matter of a soul, I think it's not about being fun, but a matter of meaning. Nourishing depth, is that what you're saying? Yeah, I wouldn't put those words together, but yeah. Why not? Nourishing depth sounds like a head and shoulders conditioner commercial.
00:08:30
Speaker
Well, I don't know. Anyways, this is motorcycle diaries. We are technically in motorcycle gear. We are in an Italian grocery area. Do you get 20 bags of chips? No, we're on motorcycles. We're literally going to struggle. I've got rock straps. I've got rock straps. Yeah, but no, no. You know, so that is bad for the body and the soul. Why? So that's why the body is good for the soul. Make sure you get it right.
00:08:59
Speaker
I'm trying to figure out what chips I'm going to get today. I kind of want, you know, I think I'm going to, you know, the sweet and spicy jalapeno, always a good choice. However, you do not do well with spice. However, although Thailand, was that a game changer for you with respect to spicy foods? My brain needs oxygen. Okay. And you want to get up early in the morning.
00:09:28
Speaker
Really? Wow. Well, I want a six-pack ab, but I'm not prepared to make it happen. I think it'd be good for your soul. I don't know if it would or not. I think it would. Anyways, I hear what you're saying on the relationships. I'm actually reading a book right now by David Brooks. Great author, great journalist, and it's kind of about getting to know people on a deeper level.
00:09:56
Speaker
Maybe we'll do a book review on that sometime. Actually, that's good for you. You need that. It is good. I don't like to listen. No, we're just standing here. You can order just out of the front there and say what you want. Help the people out. Look at you. You know what? You're a helper. You're a helper too. Yeah. We do look obtuse with these helmets on in this. Good. We look like we're playing like

But I tell you, if you'd never had an Italian Mufalato, am I saying that right? Mufalato? Mufalato? Mufalato. Mufalato. Mufalato.
00:12:48

It is so good. When you come to Jimmy's, if you're from Dallas, what do you get? Do you get the muffuletta? Do you get the parm? Like the chicken parm? Everything is good at Jimmy's in Dallas. They have frozen lasagnas. That sounds like a terrible idea.
