Shownotes
We take a wild ride through the quirky corners of life. Starting with stoner cleaning rituals of course. The philosophy of multitasking while high is fascinating. Ever wonder how music like “Because I Got High” defines a generation? We went there. From the zen of stress balls to the art of juggling ridiculous deadlines. We explored how stoned minds can find some comfort.
Then things a got random as fuck. Christmas rubber ducks, and overpriced milkshakes. A passionate debate over Shake Shack versus homemade onion rings; real people problems. Toss in a dash of Target shopping adventures, and a sprinkle of workplace chaos. You've got the perfect blend of absurdity and real-life dilemmas. Finding the balance of I was at work, but then I got high. If you known what I mean, than you know, you know?

What's the word? So random sometimes, because it like almost puts you in like a state of mind or reference. For me, it's really strange because I can be high as a kite. And I'm probably the most functional individual. I can talk to you. I can do things. I can figure out errands. I can drive.
00:27.79
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I'm not recommending it. I'm just saying in my own personal experience, I tend to just have the complete opposite of where I turn into your typical German.
00:42.64
why
I don't think that it makes me that different, like in general.
00:48.73
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh, I am completely different when I'm not almost, but i'm I'm kind of the same, but I'm completely different. But yeah, go on.
00:55.21
why
But I mean, like, as far as like the ability to like operate a car or carry a conversation or do like basic activities like all of it.
01:09.16
why
Sometimes it's even like rather enhancing like I feel like I have a great conversation or I feel very focused sometimes.
01:18.58
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Mmhmm.
01:18.65
why
um I think that for me, I had figured out how to enhance the relaxation aspect of it to kick aside all anxiety and worry to be present in the moment and to like focus on what is at hand. um And I don't think that everybody did that when You know, experiencing, I feel like, I feel like there's a lot of different things that people do.
01:53.65
why
Um, and I mean, like, sometimes it is fun to just like kick back and like, you know, not, not pay a lot of attention and just like laugh, you know, but like, it kind of depends like.
02:04.20
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, have a good time.
02:07.83
why
what's at hand, you know, like if you need to get stuff done or not. I know a lot of people um I've heard of ah smoke and clean. A lot of people will get really, really high and like do the dishes like it is a thing.
02:22.57
why
So
02:22.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You get into a rhythm, i I know what you're talking about, and it's just, especially with cleaning, I don't know. I have that thing too.
02:30.07
why
cleaning. I mean, it's a little bit easier to like clean the whole house if you're like stoned.
02:32.30
Lost in the Groove Podcast
second
02:35.17
why
Now, I think there's also like that song, you know, he's like, I was gonna go to work. You know, I was gonna clean in the house, but then I got high, right?
02:44.41
Lost in the Groove Podcast
But then I get high.
02:46.30
why
You know, so he's like saying all these things that he was gonna do.
02:46.69
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah.
02:50.27
why
But like, I mean, you, you have to, so you got to stay focused.
02:51.23
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I was gonna see. Then I got high.
02:54.51
why
Like, you got to be like, no, I said that I was gonna, you know, do this, like,
02:59.14
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Mm hmm.
03:00.33
why
It's still a choice, like...
03:03.00
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I think it it depends on the individual. I think it's all about like the personal experience.
03:13.08
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Because, damn. You know what? I hate to say this. We are creatures of substance.
03:26.15
Lost in the Groove Podcast
And that could be a lot of different things for people. Whether it be healthy or not, that's just a part of people's lives, okay?
03:34.74
why
Yeah, we consume.
03:36.99
Lost in the Groove Podcast
We consume sh- Exactly. Like, we are fucking meat bags with fluids, just walking around, alright?
03:45.69
why
Yeah, a lot of water.
03:47.92
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Filling, filling it with water, right? And just shit and chemicals and pills and the fucking Align Antibiotics and the fucking CVX right next to it.
03:59.79
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You're just putting all that shit in your body.
04:05.87
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's the power, baby.
04:08.22
why
dude, I'm just like thinking about work. And like, I teach anatomy and chemistry and all kinds of biology, sciences stuff.
04:21.94
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Wow.
04:22.06
why
And I'm constantly like, um I have on scrubs, but I'm like blabbering tons of information at these students all the time.
04:23.41
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You don't even have a lab coat on with glasses.
04:34.04
why
And it
04:35.07
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You have to.
04:36.51
why
I always care so much more about it than everybody else. And I'm always trying to find some way to like connect with my students and like make what we're talking about relevant. um And I always feel like there's so much there if people would just let themselves like think about think about the science. But I think that everybody is so busy with just going through the motions and completing everything that needs to be completed that they don't even actually sink into thinking about the science.
05:05.84
Lost in the Groove Podcast
ah
05:11.86
why
Like everybody's just like, what do I need to get done?
05:14.61
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Right.
05:14.67
why
You know?
05:16.96
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's a hard
05:20.12
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's a hard way to be, right? Because you have so many things that are going on and you have a busy life ahead of you. like When you possibly have the time to be able to put that energy and resource into things, like I'll be very honest with you, like even in my own school,
05:40.88
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I finished up a course that was electrical applications. They literally threw fucking everything at us. All right. Like they threw every kind of sensor you could possibly think of transistors. Like there was like over 50 fucking chapters in three weeks. And it's like, am I going to remember any of that shit? Nah. I barely remember what I fucking learned on the second day, but It's kind of like it's like almost like ingrained in you So then like when you run into the situation like in the future you get like that aha You know, you're like you're kind of like oh, yeah, I kind of sure yeah, maybe I fucked it in the ass, but I got it in correct.
06:30.55
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It wasn't like bad Gesundheit Gesundheit
06:34.56
why
jeez yeah so you think that like no you don't really absorb it all and think about it in the moment but then you go through the motions with it and then later on when it becomes relevant it's somewhere inside of your mind like yeah like when I went through like my anatomy course
06:51.26
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh yeah, I don't know. that That's my hypothesis. But I think somebody more educated.
07:02.40
why
I did let myself kind of like sink into like thinking about the things, but I could also say that like they pushed us through everything so quickly. that like
07:13.12
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Deadlines, honey. that's That's what they're called.
07:14.46
why
yeah And yeah, I know.
07:15.32
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh.
07:17.21
why
I have a bunch of deadlines too. and then And then all of a sudden they added two more class days. So I hustle like crazy to like meet this deadline, and then there's 16 more hours added.
07:32.29
why
And I'm like, great. like So I just spread everything the fuck out.
07:38.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, and like I was telling you look also with like the previous course like yeah There were days where like there was so much homework and Like the labs were so completely different as to like what we were doing It's like the following day like nothing would align like we were literally having labs like literally doing the same things over and over again and it just felt like completely unnecessary and
08:05.82
why
Yeah.
08:07.87
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I don't know, like sometimes the curriculums with education like it's not always going to be perfect.
08:11.81
why
Hmm.
08:15.40
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I think like the attitude is is that like you're going to be in a real world environment where that is going to be completely different. OK, what I mean by that is.
08:28.56
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You're going to have to relearn all these things like just because you took this course doesn't mean you know. All you're bringing in to your employer is you have relevance. You have an understanding. You're not like that. That's the thing like I kind of realized too is like you're not skilled yet.
08:53.82
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You're just educated. You just have a relevance. You have like a little taste, you know, like a little like, you know, that shit that they give you at Costco, you know, in the little cups.
09:05.43
why
Yeah, it was a reference.
09:06.11
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Sample. Yeah.
09:07.67
why
Yeah, I know. I don't know. I feel like that's also like at parties, like drug dealers will like give give people they'll give people at parties, drug dealers give people bumps and it's to get them hooked on drugs.
09:15.84
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh shit. Damn. You went hard, girl.
09:28.12
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Nice. That's a small way to start business.
09:31.02
why
It is, that's how they start business. They go around and they like give people a little bit of drugs. And then they know that like that's where they can find it too. And then they'll make friends with them and then they'll ask them.
09:42.46
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Shit. ah Hey, I mean, you know, if they have a grade cocaine, just saying a little sample ain't bad. But anyway,
09:55.65
Lost in the Groove Podcast
God, I love a little drug dealer swing, swag, swong.
10:02.47
why
I'm just saying, it's something to consider. like You're like, oh, honestly, it's a rather manipulative thing to do.
10:13.66
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's a strange pattern. People can be quite manipulative, but sometimes and like almost in a seductive way where it seems nice.
10:26.49
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Do do you know, where do you know where I'm going with this?
10:30.41
why
What are we?
10:30.49
Lost in the Groove Podcast
No.
10:31.01
why
Where are we going with this?
10:32.86
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Well, I know what I mean by seductive, like
10:33.03
why
Use the word seductive.
10:38.04
Lost in the Groove Podcast
like really like using like the type of manipulative like manipulation where it's completely like they want to win they're gonna get something out of you like there's this whole process and plan I kind of like the thing with the drug dealer you know like you give them a little something and then you kind of like make them feel better and then you kind of take advantage of them but they don't really know and you just keep on manipulating them
11:02.59
why
Yeah, I don't know. And it's like you wonder what type of people fall into positions like that, you know, just like people who are like that already anyways.
11:11.00
Lost in the Groove Podcast
work in car dealerships, hands down, own and work in car dealerships across the nation.
11:20.74
why
Last night we talked about the idea of me opening a Jamba Juice. We went on about that for a while.
11:27.58
Lost in the Groove Podcast
But we would call it something else like Samba juice.
11:30.55
why
Yeah, i mama's juice was my joke.
11:32.87
Lost in the Groove Podcast
but right but I told you I was like honey they're gonna think like you're serving breast milk like they bring the health inspector and then they'll be like what the fuck why is there so much breast milk in the freezer like they're not gonna believe that shit you can see that like that milk is vegan it's vegan milk my god
11:39.78
why
What if I am? Pressed milk from a cow, damn it. oh No, I would be like, I'd be like a juice shop, but then all of a out of nowhere, I'd start selling charcuterie too.
12:03.28
why
I, like, wouldn't be able to help myself, like...
12:06.00
Lost in the Groove Podcast
No, maybe eating all the charcuteries like people be like we're all the meats and shit and to be like, um, I ate it
12:14.83
why
No, I just love charcuterie and so, like, I don't know, but I cannot believe you that nobody has opened a Jamba Juice. Like, have people just not traveled enough for, like,
12:27.87
why
I don't know, but my mind is blown because they basically tried to open every single thing you could try to open here. Aside from Shake Shack, which everyone loves.
12:41.25
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I honestly, I've tried better burger places than Shake Shack.
12:45.20
why
It's those shakes, though.
12:47.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, those shakes will give you cardiac arrest. I promise you. If you're looking for, yeah, if you're looking like a way to suicide by milkshake.
12:52.70
why
I love that shake.
12:59.22
why
Do you remember fat cells?
13:01.61

13:08.18
why

13:14.99

It was like, it was like $12 for a shake.
13:23.85
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Uh huh.
13:26.76
why
And I remember one night at work, we all ordered fat cells because it was always open really late.
13:26.78
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yep.
13:32.85
why
So that's how they'd always trap you with their bad extreme prices.
13:36.18
Lost in the Groove Podcast
They were open until 12 o'clock.
13:38.24
why
Yeah, they're open really late and so they could charge more than everybody else. Plus like at least they gave you big portions. Like my shake was like it was big and it was chunky.
13:50.81
why
Like I got this like s'mores shake that had like, Oh, they were so fucking big and good.
13:54.65
Lost in the Groove Podcast
They came in foam cups. Uh-huh.

I guess I like a milkshake in a to go cup. Like, you know, like I don't want to sit down at a place and have a milkshake.
14:29.08
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh, it's the best. It's the best.
14:33.67

Like I want to be like drinking that thing, like in the car or at home.
14:38.77
Lost in the Groove Podcast

15:14.33
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh, we hope so, but and no promises.
15:17.48
why
I mean, when I was young, I always hoped that I could, you know, do better than how shit is now. So I have no idea, but I ah ah remember I like to ask my students about things to see if they're still relevant or not.
15:24.49
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Hey, here we are now,:15:35.09
why
I asked the students, has anybody ever seen the movie Fight Club? And they were all like, no. Um, I can see that none of them know who Robert De Niro is.
15:40.48
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Wow. But you know what I heard that was kind of in was taxi. Do you remember that TV show?
15:53.45

Lost in the Groove Podcast
I mean, he's still hot. I'm just saying.
16:02.36
why
That's my Robert De Niro impression. Do you like it?
16:05.27
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I will give it 7.5 at a time.
16:12.65
Lost in the Groove Podcast
7.8.
16:14.18
why
I'm trying really hard. ah gay i i did ah I did a facial impression of Robert De Niro for anyone that was only listening and is still listening after.
16:25.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
And I gave it a 7.8 out of 10.
16:28.10
why
Seven is pretty cool. I mean, you might be nice, so like it might even be a four like without like the niceness that you added onto it. And a four is pretty good.
16:38.13
why
i An impression at all is pretty cool.
16:41.98
Lost in the Groove Podcast
So you give it a four and I gave it a seven point.
16:42.11
why
I think for four or five. Yeah. I think it counts.
16:45.20
Lost in the Groove Podcast
OK, cool.
16:47.57
why
Yeah.
16:47.68
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Damn, I didn't know they were a judges. Holy shit, can we get like a mallet?
16:50.55
why
You, ah you started judging out of nowhere. I just gave it to you and you were like, I give it a seven.
16:53.25
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I don't know, I just.
16:55.75
why
And I was like, Oh shit. Seven's pretty good.
16:58.46
Lost in the Groove Podcast
And then I gave it a seven point five and then you retry it again and then I was like seven point eight.
17:03.93
why
I got better with, with a little bit more effort.
17:06.15
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Mm hmm.
17:09.59
why
It got a lot better.
17:10.09
Lost in the Groove Podcast

17:10.79
why
Yeah.
17:11.77
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, for sure.
17:12.83
why
Yeah, I wonder if nurses have been retrieving these things out of people's butts.
17:17.97
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I wonder too, I mean, like there was that whole Tide Pod fiasco where people were eating Tide Pods, like I would not be surprised if...
17:23.80
why
oh I hope nobody bit this thing.
17:27.92
Lost in the Groove Podcast
No, I just think...
17:28.12
why
I want to see a video where somebody broke one open, though. You know, there's a video where somebody broke one open.
17:33.75
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, and it's like kind of like heartbreaking because you're like, no, don't. You know, and like you got like the music and the drama, though.
17:41.23
why
they're like stabbing it like like this or that the thingy it's like it's not the same like it's what the outside of it is made of it doesn't have like the inner goo
17:43.55
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's like the bass also made out of a soft material.
17:50.97
Lost in the Groove Podcast
the That the bass. The thing, yeah, the thingy.
18:05.56
Lost in the Groove Podcast
but it's like soft.
18:08.95
why
It is, it is soft. You see it?
18:10.94
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's interesting because like I would think that it would be like a harder material, you know, like maybe like a hard plastic, but they chose to use just a soft material.
18:20.71
why
It's a bendy too.
18:25.21
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I think you got to get the square one now.
18:25.57
why
and See, it's got all these sparkles in it.
18:27.07
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You got to get the one that's like a square so you can show it off next week.
18:33.27
Lost in the Groove Podcast
yeah it kind of like looks like almost like the ocean inside of it like they should have like put like maybe like a little fish or something in there you know like almost a little scenery
18:37.45
why
Oh, I love it. I love my needle.
18:45.03
why
Oh, cute. Yeah, I don't know. It's just a really, really good idea. And like, I like how it's pretty tough. Like it takes a lot of effort to squeeze it. Like I almost wish it was a little bit more resistant.
19:02.29
why
But when I bought it and I squeezed it for the first time, I was surprised at how hard it was. um But somebody told me the more you squeeze them, like the more they become goo.
19:17.57
why
but my one at work's pretty good. You know what's weird is like when someone else put picks it up and I look over there and they're like playing with it and I always wonder like, holy shit, they bought one too?
19:29.26
why
And then it's like, oh no, that that's mine. They just picked it up and they didn't say anything about it.
19:35.50
Lost in the Groove Podcast
I I I know is I just like I would I mean I would probably maybe get one maybe possibly I don't know I would have to think about it god you were that bored you were that bored
19:36.93
why
They just pick it up and they just start putting their hands all over it.
19:50.80
why
It's really cool. Like I can't stop. And then I started like tossing it at work. Like I was like, somebody's going to take, I was doing this like, well, because I, and I'm sure it's like horribly distracting, but like I stand up there and I lecture and I like ask the students questions like,
20:12.68
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Okay, you're one of those professors, you know, like, you got like the Tom Ford glasses, you know, like the tweed, like, yeah, what do you call jacket, you know, and you're like, throwing the ball up, you're like, hey, students, so hey, here's the catch.
20:29.14
why
I know I should throw it to them.
20:29.98
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Hey, huh?
20:31.81
why
Yeah. No, I have a stress ball in my hand because my job is stupid motherfucking stressful. Like.
20:39.33
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You better, like, won one day, like, walk in and be like, all right, students, you see that wrinkle? You see that wrinkle on my forehead? You see that? You see that? You caused...
20:47.62
why
It's not them. No, they're fine. Like I I would do totally fine.
20:51.16
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh, shit. but Come on, we gotta get a little drum on the students a little.
20:54.27
why
No, no, no. The students are wonderful. It's it's the everybody else. It's like, oh, my fucking God, like guys like get it together.
21:02.75
Lost in the Groove Podcast
do you want something wild? So the guy that um is my teacher, he was my teacher the last course, and he works in the BMW program, the thing is a BMW program, they only have an evening class. They don't have a morning class. And because they like moved it to the evening, he doesn't get off until like 8pm for like the next few years.
21:25.94
why
Whoa.
21:29.74
why
Oh. Yeah, I know.
21:31.87
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah,
21:32.66
why
I don't know. They do all kinds of like really shitty things to teachers and like no one ever thinks about like how like.
21:35.57
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Right. So.
21:41.98
why
Just I don't know what their work experience is like, like no one gives a fuck. And like it is so hard to entertain that many people all day long, like.
21:54.78
why
I wouldn't give it up, you know, but like I am so fucking exhausted, but like I would be fine if it weren't for my employer, like increasing my workload intensely aside from just my students and like stressing me the fuck out.
21:57.16
Lost in the Groove Podcast
No.
22:17.16
why
Cause like I was already fine. Like, but I was already like, this is enough for me. Like I'm at, where, what I can handle.
22:23.83
Lost in the Groove Podcast
my peak capacity.
22:25.11
why
Yeah, I'm at my capacity and I am handling it, but like I'm there. And then they threw all kinds of extra shit on me and now I'm just like completely depleted.
22:34.58
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's like, you know, trash bin, but like, you need to take out the garbage, but like you're waiting until like, you know, it's full and then it just keeps filling up. And then like, you're like trying to press it down and you're like, I really should take out the garbage, but you're just being a fucking lazy ass bitch and you're not taking out the garbage.
22:51.78
Lost in the Groove Podcast
So.
22:52.14
why
not me I feel like I mean I told you what happened basically they never taught me anything other than what I teach and then they came through and they want to assess me on stuff that they never taught me and it's really really stressful and they expect me to like cram everything that they never taught me somehow in between my regular work schedule which is impossible because I already don't have enough time to do all the things that I need to do.
23:24.52
why
And then they took all my work time away by adding all this new shit. And it's just been hell. Like I don't sleep right. Like it's so stressful.
23:35.03
why
They've just, they've ruined a good thing.
23:39.34
why
It's dumb.
23:40.06
Lost in the Groove Podcast
stick it up to the man i wonder if there is a way of like fixing you know the the bracket almost for teachers like regards to like
23:43.91
why
Yeah, I can't. I don't know. I just, I, I never dreamed that I could dislike this job as much as I am right now. And it's not the job. It's just them. Like the actual teaching part is fine, but they've fucked it all up somehow.
24:09.94
Lost in the Groove Podcast
fear practice and care. Because, you know, many ways like educators are kind of like kind of pushed aside almost when they're very much important. At the same time, it's like, where do you even start? No, like, is is there? Like, do you start like at the the like, at the school level? You know, do you start all the way up at the corporate ladder? Like,
24:39.20
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It's really hard to say.
24:42.47
why
Oh, well, I mean, it's interesting thinking about like professors, like some of them have never left school. Like all they've ever done is like, go to school, get their master's, get their doctorate and then be teaching school. And it's like, did you ever go do what it was that you went to school for?
25:07.54
why
Like I have a hard time with all the people who just go directly into like teaching from getting their education. Like I get it because a lot of us went to school to become a teacher, but like you have nothing to teach other than what people just taught you.
25:26.32
why
Like you didn't go out into the field and like actually do it. Um,
25:30.14
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, it's really interesting because like, if you ever think about it, like these professors, they're always in classes. So they've never gone beyond of what their students have done.
25:46.42
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Like you said, like in the actual field.
25:46.78
why
I mean, yeah.
25:50.28
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You know, like if you're teaching engineering, but all you teach is engineering and you never actually engineered,
25:59.70
Lost in the Groove Podcast
See what I mean?
25:59.80
why
No, I mean, they have engineered like in class and like, maybe they had like some internships or like different things like that, but I know.
26:09.17
Lost in the Groove Podcast
yeah But they've never been on the actual field.
26:14.84
why
Now, like my biology teacher, I believe that, like, yeah, she's never I mean, she might have worked like as like a research person or like different things like that.
26:26.38
why
Like, I feel like that's possible.
26:28.72
Lost in the Groove Podcast
That doesn't pay anything though, honey.
26:28.84
why
But.
26:30.48
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Let's be real with ourselves.
26:31.04
why
No, I don't think that it really pays what she was looking for, but she did talk a lot a little bit about doing other work. um Yeah, I don't know. It's like my sister is a pharmacist, but like, what would she have to do in order to learn to teach pharmacy? You know, I don't really know.
26:53.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Well, no, I mean, doesn't she work in it in a pharmacy?
26:59.55
why
Yeah, she's the pharmacist out of publics.
27:02.41
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, I mean, so I mean, she technically is on the field when she's doing
27:07.87
why
I know. And so it's like she's the one who's got like more practice than the actual professor, but she's not going to be the one to actually teach anybody how it works. It's going to be the person who's never done it and just went to school for it.
27:21.38
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, it's it's an interesting thing that like, honestly, you don't pay any mind to. You know, almost like these are the people that are teaching you about your career. But for example, like in trade school, even for myself, most of my teachers have actually been in the trade. You know, they don't mean they call them instructors, but they're really their teachers, but they're all like had experience.
27:51.07
Lost in the Groove Podcast
So there's that element to it. I mean, like also for yourself, like you're an instructor or teacher, whatever the whatever the fuck you want to call it.
27:57.45
why
Yeah instructor.
27:58.23
Lost in the Groove Podcast
But you have your career and experience to give along with it because you've been out in the field.
28:10.41
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You know what I'm saying?
28:10.71
why
Yeah.
28:11.09
Lost in the Groove Podcast
there There's a difference here.
28:12.16
why
It makes me just think that like the other way around would just be like kind of boring. I don't know. Cause like, yeah, they taught us how to teach things that we have no experience in.
28:26.04
why
And you're just kind of like reading like the material that the students already have like to them, more or less like you can't give any like actual relevant information.
28:40.68
why
um
28:43.55
why
Yeah, I don't know. I would hate it. I would hate it. Like if all I had done was just like go to school and then teach what I learned. Like I love being able to pull from like my actual experience ah when talking to people about things.
28:59.08
why
Like I just just be empty.
28:59.28
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Yeah, real life experience adds an element, no?
29:04.51
why
I don't know. I don't know what people are looking for. I try so hard though as an educator. Like I try so hard all the time to like make it relevant and I just feel like total trash.
29:20.79
why
um
29:21.29
Lost in the Groove Podcast
It can do that to you sometimes.
29:24.11
why
Yeah, I know. Well, welcome to my life. And yes, your shirt is absolutely adorable.
29:29.79
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Oh, thank you. Tarte, AKA target clearance section. I have a rule.
29:35.71
why
I went to Target and I bought the peppermint bark.
29:41.81
Lost in the Groove Podcast

29:43.82
why
I gave it all to Brett.
29:47.62
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You didn't like it.
29:49.91
why
He loved it. He loves peppermint, which is why I bought it. And like ah my stomach has just been really on edge.
29:53.80
Lost in the Groove Podcast
You don't like peppermint.
29:58.30
why
I feel like if I was feeling better and I was like all stony, I'd love to eat some peppermint bark.
30:05.79
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Honey, you gotta try that shit.
30:05.96
why

30:15.29

So yeah, I got that peppermint bark and then I found a, like a undershirt that is velour. Do you know what velour is?
30:31.62

No, but I should do that again.
31:30.04
Lost in the Groove Podcast
Just a lot of people that have Jeeps by you, don't they?
31:32.99
why
Yeah, there are a lot of Jeeps around here ah because like it's good to have a car that goes like four wheel drive in the winter, but I should have bought more Christmas ducks and then I could duck some Jeeps to cheer myself up from time to time.
31:49.64
Lost in the Groove Podcast
but Little Santa Claus.
31:51.65

They didn't have a Santa one. They had an elf and they had an embalminable snowman. They had a duck that was dressed up like a penguin. And a duck that was um wearing like a Christmas wreath.
