Joe: 00:00:00

I have allergies, never really grew up with them, I'm, I always feel like

Joe: 00:00:03

you don't know what you're thinking, like you have like the Chandler Bing.

Joe: 00:00:05

Answer, right, of why he doesn't like dogs.

Joe: 00:00:08

But three, like the, the smell of wet dog does not bother me nearly

Joe: 00:00:17

as much as people who stink.

Danny: 00:00:21

Hey, and welcome

Danny: 00:00:21

to five random questions.

Danny: 00:00:23

The show where every question is an adventure.

Danny: 00:00:26

I'm your host, Danny Brown.

Danny: 00:00:27

And each week, I'll be asking my guests five questions created

Danny: 00:00:30

by a random question generator.

Danny: 00:00:32

The guest has no idea what the questions are, and neither do I,

Danny: 00:00:35

which means this could go either way.

Danny: 00:00:37

So, sit back, relax, and let's dive into this week's episode.

Danny: 00:00:41

Today, I'm posing the questions to Joe Casabona, who helps busy

Danny: 00:00:45

solopreneurs take back their time.

Danny: 00:00:47

Some even say he perfectly blends content creation and technology.

Danny: 00:00:50

Like it's the best cup of coffee you've ever had.

Danny: 00:00:53

Okay, Joe says that.

Danny: 00:00:54

Joe's got a lot of experience over 10 years when it comes to creating podcasts,

Danny: 00:00:58

as well as more than 15 years in teaching, and over 20 years as a web developer.

Danny: 00:01:02

So, he's probably going to have a few things to say,

Danny: 00:01:05

which is perfect for this show.

Danny: 00:01:06

So Joe, welcome to 5 Random Questions.

Joe: 00:01:10

Thanks so much for having me.

Joe: 00:01:11

I'm really excited to be here.

Danny: 00:01:13

For sure, and you've got, like, just reading that out there,

Danny: 00:01:16

that's a lot of experience, mate.

Joe: 00:01:19

Yeah, it's Thanks I started when I was 14, like web development,

Joe: 00:01:23

but to put it in context, I was watching a Instagram reel today that

Joe: 00:01:28

personally attacked me by, by saying Grand Theft Auto Vice City, right?

Joe: 00:01:34

It came out in 2002.

Joe: 00:01:35

It takes place in, in 1986.

Joe: 00:01:39

If it came out today, it would take place in 2008.

Joe: 00:01:43

And that, that is gross to me, like I'm like, I was like a full blown adult, like

Joe: 00:01:46

a voting, voting in elections that like, at that age, I don't, I don't appre,

Joe: 00:01:51

so I feel like, I feel very old today.

Danny: 00:01:54

Well, and I was going to say, when I mentioned that you've got

Danny: 00:01:56

like 20 plus years in the, the web development, you don't look old, mate.

Danny: 00:02:01

You know, you're a little bit grey in your beard,

Danny: 00:02:02

but

Danny: 00:02:02

you don't look

Danny: 00:02:03

old.

Joe: 00:02:04

Well, thank you.

Joe: 00:02:04

I have three kids, so that's like, that's where the grey comes from.

Danny: 00:02:08

You know what, I hear you, I don't know as many of you, I've

Danny: 00:02:10

got two, but I definitely greyed out big time after they were born.

Danny: 00:02:14

I think that's just a, a thing, right?

Danny: 00:02:16

It's just like, it adds greyness.

Joe: 00:02:18

Yeah.

Joe: 00:02:18

You know, it like gets you, like, you know, there's like the, yeah, like

Joe: 00:02:21

kids do whatever they want and it's frustrating, but then there's also

Joe: 00:02:24

the constant worry you have about them and everything they're doing.

Joe: 00:02:28

And it's like, you know, it's, it's wonderful.

Joe: 00:02:30

I love being a dad, but you know, they had like a concert for us this

Joe: 00:02:34

morning and that was like adorable.

Joe: 00:02:35

But You know, you do worry about them.

Joe: 00:02:37

So, I'll take the grays, though.

Joe: 00:02:38

I'll take the grays for the good experience.

Danny: 00:02:40

You're looking very dapper with the grays, especially

Danny: 00:02:42

with your yellow hat there.

Danny: 00:02:43

That's nice.

Danny: 00:02:44

It's, you know, countering it really well.

Joe: 00:02:46

Thank you.

Danny: 00:02:47

So, what we're going to do, Joe, as I mentioned, we've

Danny: 00:02:49

got five random questions.

Danny: 00:02:50

I have no idea what they are.

Danny: 00:02:51

They're just going to pop up when I open the generator, and

Danny: 00:02:54

we'll just see where it goes.

Danny: 00:02:55

So, I'm going to bring the generator up, and let's just get that now.

Danny: 00:03:00

Alrighty.

Danny: 00:03:00

So, question one.

Danny: 00:03:01

Let's just spin the generator here.

Danny: 00:03:03

Alright.

Danny: 00:03:04

Here we go, then.

Danny: 00:03:05

Alright.

Danny: 00:03:05

Let's get the ball rolling.

Danny: 00:03:08

Who from your past do you really wish you'd stayed in contact with?

Joe: 00:03:13

Man, this is quite a question.

Danny: 00:03:17

It's a good

Danny: 00:03:17

opener.

Joe: 00:03:18

Yeah.

Joe: 00:03:19

Okay.

Joe: 00:03:19

So, I mean, there's a lot of people, but I think that I have a, a couple of

Joe: 00:03:25

friends from college who predictably we lost touch with each other after college.

Joe: 00:03:31

So you know, I have like my friend Kat, we would text each other.

Joe: 00:03:36

In direct rela like, the amount of time that would go between how often we texted

Joe: 00:03:40

each other after graduation was directly related to how much time had gone by,

Joe: 00:03:45

so, Six months after college, we would text each other every couple weeks.

Joe: 00:03:49

Six years after college, it was the high holidays.

Joe: 00:03:52

And now it's, hey, remember that time in college we did that thing?

Joe: 00:03:58

So I wish I'd stayed in touch with her and, you know, that group

Joe: 00:04:01

of people a little bit better.

Danny: 00:04:03

And what do you find?

Danny: 00:04:04

Is it because you're in different, like, states or cities, etc?

Danny: 00:04:07

Just different paths?

Danny: 00:04:08

Or what do you think's the main reason for that?

Joe: 00:04:10

Yeah, I mean, we live So, I mean, that particular group of

Joe: 00:04:15

friends and I, we live all over now.

Joe: 00:04:17

But Kat specifically, she, you know, she lives probably

Joe: 00:04:19

five or so hours away from me.

Joe: 00:04:21

We both have.

Joe: 00:04:23

Three small children, as a, as a matter of fact and, you know, we,

Joe: 00:04:27

we both have pretty busy careers.

Joe: 00:04:30

And so you know, if we lived closer to each other, we'd probably see

Joe: 00:04:34

each other more often, but, you know, with, with the kids and the jobs and.

Joe: 00:04:38

The distance makes it hard.

Danny: 00:04:40

Did you ever do that thing, I know like you see it on TV shows and movies

Danny: 00:04:43

all the time, where you're on Facebook I'm going to use Facebook because that's

Danny: 00:04:46

the big connector, obviously, pretty much everybody on the planet's on that.

Danny: 00:04:49

Do you ever see someone from your old school, college, workplace, and they've

Danny: 00:04:54

taken a completely different path in life from what you might have expected that.

Danny: 00:04:57

When you knew them, you

Danny: 00:04:58

ever

Danny: 00:04:58

see that?

Joe: 00:04:59

Oh, absolutely.

Joe: 00:05:01

I don't, I don't mind.

Joe: 00:05:02

I won't name her specifically, but you'll know who I'm who if I'm talking about

Joe: 00:05:07

her, but I had a friend in college who was, she was like a big hippie, like

Joe: 00:05:11

kind of flower child type of person.

Joe: 00:05:14

Go with the flow.

Joe: 00:05:16

And at our five year College reunion, I, we were talking and

Joe: 00:05:23

I'm like, so what do you do?

Joe: 00:05:24

She's like, Oh, I'm a lawyer now.

Joe: 00:05:25

I'm like, you're a lawyer now?

Joe: 00:05:29

I'm like, five years ago, me wouldn't believe that.

Joe: 00:05:33

She's like, five years ago, me wouldn't believe it either.

Danny: 00:05:36

Well, and that's, that's almost like the complete

Danny: 00:05:38

opposite of what you'd expect.

Danny: 00:05:40

you know, someone that's following the hippie lifestyle to do, especially,

Danny: 00:05:44

I mean, a moving to corporate, but I guess moving to being a lawyer,

Danny: 00:05:48

was she a prosecutor or defender?

Joe: 00:05:50

You know, at this point I forget, I, you know, I, it felt like, I

Joe: 00:05:54

feel like she was in public defense.

Joe: 00:05:57

And so that, that makes like a little bit more sense, but yeah,

Joe: 00:06:00

it was, it was really shocked.

Joe: 00:06:02

And I mean, you know, like people go through, something I have a problem with

Joe: 00:06:05

is, The person I knew at that stage of their life is who they are today, and

Joe: 00:06:11

that is almost, it should never be the case, and it is almost never the case.

Danny: 00:06:17

And that's true, like, I mean, they do say you can choose your friends, right?

Danny: 00:06:21

You can't choose family, you choose friends, and then you choose who, I guess,

Danny: 00:06:24

well, I guess you don't always have the choice as to who stays in your life,

Danny: 00:06:27

but, as you mentioned, at least you can still stay connected, I mean, we've got

Danny: 00:06:30

this great thing called internet that allows us to, You know, to keep connected.

Danny: 00:06:34

And who knows, because, you know, obviously you and Kat's got the similar

Danny: 00:06:37

life with the, the kids, et cetera.

Danny: 00:06:39

But maybe that's something that's a bucket list, you know, let's

Danny: 00:06:42

spend a summer just, you know, re reconnecting with either at yours or

Danny: 00:06:45

theirs or vice versa or in between.

Joe: 00:06:48

Yeah.

Joe: 00:06:48

Yeah, absolutely.

Danny: 00:06:49

I love that.

Danny: 00:06:50

Nice.

Danny: 00:06:51

Okay.

Danny: 00:06:51

So that's question one.

Danny: 00:06:52

That's a nice one to start off with.

Danny: 00:06:54

Let's see what we got for question two.

Danny: 00:06:57

Ooh, okay.

Danny: 00:06:58

Interesting.

Danny: 00:06:59

All right, Joe, question two, spontaneity or stability.

Joe: 00:07:04

The adventurous people pleaser person in me wants to say spontaneity,

Joe: 00:07:11

but the responsible business owning dad in me wants to say stability.

Joe: 00:07:15

So I'm going to go with stability at this point in my life.

Joe: 00:07:20

You know, 38 I'll be 39 years old.

Danny: 00:07:23

You're just a kid, mate.

Joe: 00:07:26

But you know, got school tuition and house and things like that.

Joe: 00:07:30

Of course, I am a small business owner, right?

Joe: 00:07:32

So like how, like how much stability Am I really leaning into here?

Joe: 00:07:37

But I like the idea of knowing a little bit.

Joe: 00:07:41

At least a little bit of what I'm going into.

Joe: 00:07:43

And I feel like that's more the side of stability, right?

Joe: 00:07:46

Spontaneity is like, hey, let's just do this random thing today.

Joe: 00:07:50

And I'm like, can I do this random thing today?

Joe: 00:07:52

I could do that in college.

Joe: 00:07:53

I can't do that today though.

Danny: 00:07:55

Well, okay, so let's go, let's go with a bonus.

Danny: 00:07:58

Question on top of this then.

Danny: 00:08:00

This isn't question three, this is like 2.a1654, whatever you want to call it.

Danny: 00:08:04

Let's get into the pie equations almost.

Danny: 00:08:06

Okay, so obviously stability makes complete sense as you mentioned.

Danny: 00:08:09

You've got the business to run, you've got bills to pay, family to feed, etc.

Danny: 00:08:13

So completely 100 percent get that.

Danny: 00:08:17

If you could do one single spontaneous thing.

Danny: 00:08:20

Anything at all, and it doesn't impact your job, your life, etc.

Danny: 00:08:26

You just do something really, you know, out of the world that would

Danny: 00:08:29

normally be associated with you.

Danny: 00:08:31

What would it be?

Joe: 00:08:32

Ooh, Just to put you on the spot.

Joe: 00:08:35

Anything in the world I could do that maybe wouldn't So I love traveling,

Joe: 00:08:40

so I feel like I'm not going to give the coolest answer, but I

Joe: 00:08:43

would take my wife to New Zealand.

Joe: 00:08:46

We've been, you know, we went to Italy for our honeymoon, we've both been to Ireland.

Joe: 00:08:49

And I do want to make it to Scotland to have Lagavulin straight from the

Joe: 00:08:53

source, but she's a huge Lord of the Rings fan and so, and I've always

Joe: 00:08:58

wanted to be on that side of the world.

Joe: 00:08:59

So I think if, if we could, we would spontaneously take a trip to New Zealand.

Danny: 00:09:05

And like, and they've got Hobbiton there, right?

Danny: 00:09:06

They've like, they've recreated Hobbiton essentially and it's actually there.

Joe: 00:09:10

Yeah, yeah.

Joe: 00:09:11

It was shot in New Zealand.

Joe: 00:09:12

So they have all sorts of movie era sets and, and museum esque stuff over there.

Joe: 00:09:19

That would be cool.

Danny: 00:09:20

Okay, so there you go, bucket list.

Danny: 00:09:22

Yeah.

Danny: 00:09:22

We're off to New Zealand.

Danny: 00:09:23

Alrighty, nice one.

Danny: 00:09:24

Moving swiftly along.

Danny: 00:09:26

We're getting there fairly quickly today, but I like it though, I like it.

Danny: 00:09:30

Alright then.

Danny: 00:09:32

Okay, I'm looking forward to this for some strange reason.

Danny: 00:09:35

Question number three.

Danny: 00:09:37

Would you rather be trapped in an elevator full of men with B.

Danny: 00:09:41

O.

Danny: 00:09:41

and body odour or three soaking wet dogs?

Joe: 00:09:46

I am famously not a dog person.

Joe: 00:09:49

I'm not an animal person at all.

Joe: 00:09:51

Actually.

Joe: 00:09:52

I don't like animals.

Joe: 00:09:53

Yeah.

Joe: 00:09:54

I have allergies.

Joe: 00:09:54

Never really grew up with them.

Joe: 00:09:56

I'm, I always say like, you don't know what you're thinking.

Joe: 00:09:58

Like you have like the Chandler Bing answer, right?

Joe: 00:10:00

Of why he doesn't like dogs, but three, like the, the smell of wet dog.

Joe: 00:10:09

Does not bother me nearly as much as people who stink.

Joe: 00:10:14

Like I knew, I knew somebody in a previous life who was a close talker

Joe: 00:10:18

who also had like intense halitosis.

Joe: 00:10:21

And like, like close, like, he would like grab my head and like say something

Joe: 00:10:27

real close to me and I'm like, bro, you need a mint, like, so I will, even though

Joe: 00:10:32

I don't like animals, I will pick the three soaked dogs because I, I would

Joe: 00:10:37

prefer that smell versus men with B.

Joe: 00:10:41

O.

Danny: 00:10:42

And I always feel like, I mean, wet dogs don't really smell that bad, you

Danny: 00:10:46

know, and I'm thinking we've got two dogs.

Danny: 00:10:48

That being said, our two dogs are Chinese Crested, so they're pretty much hairless.

Danny: 00:10:52

They've only got hair on their face, their tail, and a little bit on their paws.

Danny: 00:10:55

That's it.

Danny: 00:10:56

The rest of them, they're naked, and we got these because my wife suffers

Danny: 00:10:59

from allergies, so these dogs are hypoallergenic, so it was perfect, but

Danny: 00:11:03

when we bathe, okay, when we bathe them, that's not a great example, because then

Danny: 00:11:06

they smell nice and clean, before we bathe them, they don't smell bad, and

Danny: 00:11:10

when they're out in the rain or whatever, maybe it's because they don't have hair,

Danny: 00:11:13

Even dogs that, like, my wife's mum's got a big dog, and even that doesn't

Danny: 00:11:18

smell bad, bad, at least, when it's wet.

Danny: 00:11:21

So it's, like you say, I can't think of three wet dogs being anywhere

Danny: 00:11:25

as bad as, especially men would be, or women, I feel, don't often have.

Danny: 00:11:30

But I had to be all problems not as much as men for some reason, whether it's the

Danny: 00:11:34

pheromones, whatever it is, it's a nice.

Danny: 00:11:35

Mm hmm.

Joe: 00:11:36

Yeah.

Joe: 00:11:37

Testosterone is probably very smelly.

Danny: 00:11:39

Oh yeah.

Danny: 00:11:40

Yeah.

Danny: 00:11:40

I know.

Danny: 00:11:41

Like to your example, I worked before I like moved into

Danny: 00:11:44

sort of a a different career.

Danny: 00:11:46

I used to work in a knitwear mill back in Scotland.

Danny: 00:11:49

That was my very first job after leaving school.

Danny: 00:11:51

And that's where you make, you know, sweaters and jerseys, et

Danny: 00:11:53

cetera, and you hand make them.

Danny: 00:11:55

And we used to work in a knitwear mill in the summer.

Danny: 00:11:57

It got really, really stinky hot.

Danny: 00:11:58

There was no AC back then.

Danny: 00:12:00

So it was really hot.

Danny: 00:12:01

And we were a couple of guys that had really bad issues

Danny: 00:12:03

and they tried to hide it.

Danny: 00:12:04

Fair play to them.

Danny: 00:12:05

They tried to hide it with lots of showers, lots of soap, and body spray,

Danny: 00:12:10

but because they were lathering all that stuff on and then that was on

Danny: 00:12:14

top of the BO that was fighting back through again, that just, I, I still

Danny: 00:12:19

can vividly remember that smell today.

Joe: 00:12:23

Yeah, sounds like they needed like prescription deodorant, right?

Joe: 00:12:26

So yeah, I guess the other side of this question is not the smell, but it's like

Joe: 00:12:31

three soaked dogs will probably be like shaking themselves off and like, again, I

Joe: 00:12:36

don't know, like being, being wet in dry clothing doesn't really bother me also.

Joe: 00:12:43

Okay.

Joe: 00:12:43

Like, I know I keep bringing up my kids, but like, you know, when I'm out and about

Joe: 00:12:46

or my, my youngest still wears diapers.

Joe: 00:12:50

So like.

Joe: 00:12:51

You know, I get like foreign substances on my hands that I kind of have to

Joe: 00:12:55

deal with so like that maybe it's just like I'm Especially sensitive to

Joe: 00:13:01

smells like I can tell if someone's smoking outside like several.

Joe: 00:13:06

I don't I was gonna say blocks Outside of eyesight, right?

Joe: 00:13:09

Like if someone is smoking in the vicinity, even if they're not next to me

Joe: 00:13:13

Like I'll smell it and I smoke cigars.

Joe: 00:13:15

So I'm also like aware of that hypocrisy so like maybe it's just like

Joe: 00:13:21

You Really smelly people are like, that is definitely low on my list.

Joe: 00:13:29

I would rather like dogs like shaking off and getting me all wet and like smelling

Joe: 00:13:33

like a wet dog way more than like really stinky men, like really stinky men.

Joe: 00:13:38

Right.

Danny: 00:13:39

And when you, when you said that, I thought you were going

Danny: 00:13:40

to go somewhere else with that.

Danny: 00:13:41

When you said, I'd rather have dogs, you know, Oh, where are we going here?

Danny: 00:13:46

Cause now that's a different question.

Danny: 00:13:48

That's a different question.

Danny: 00:13:50

So I guess then, so I, and I, I completely, I think I one hundred

Danny: 00:13:53

percent agree with you here, mate.

Danny: 00:13:55

I'm curious, if you're with someone so whether you're in a work situation, et

Danny: 00:13:59

cetera, and someone's got that bad B.

Danny: 00:14:02

O., do you let them know gently?

Danny: 00:14:03

Do you ignore it and let it go?

Danny: 00:14:05

What would be your approach there?

Joe: 00:14:07

I'd probably let it go unless it was like a friend, like if it was like a

Joe: 00:14:12

friend and we're like getting ready to go out maybe or something, I'd be like hey,

Joe: 00:14:16

did you like poop your pants or something?

Joe: 00:14:18

Like you smell terrible.

Joe: 00:14:20

Definitely my brothers.

Joe: 00:14:21

But if it was like, if we're already out.

Joe: 00:14:24

Almost definitely no, right, because at that point, I don't know, my, my wife

Joe: 00:14:29

and like a lot of her friends like tend to have deodorant on them, but like my

Joe: 00:14:33

wife's also a nurse, so like she's running around, I, I don't know any guys who carry

Joe: 00:14:38

deodorant on them, and so like, certainly if it's a guy friend, like probably

Joe: 00:14:43

not able to do anything about that, so like why make them self conscious.

Danny: 00:14:47

So

Danny: 00:14:48

what we're saying here is, man,

Danny: 00:14:50

smarten up, you guys stink, we stink.

Danny: 00:14:52

Let's not say you guys, we stink.

Joe: 00:14:54

Yes,

Joe: 00:14:54

yeah, we stink, yeah, right?

Joe: 00:14:55

Give yourself a sniff test, right?

Joe: 00:14:57

If I'm going out on a date, I reapply, like with my wife,

Joe: 00:15:00

I reapply deodorant, right?

Joe: 00:15:02

Like, even though I do maybe one of the least physically strenuous jobs

Joe: 00:15:07

on the planet, I'm still like, hey, I was just living, so I'm gonna freshen

Joe: 00:15:13

up a little bit before I go out.

Danny: 00:15:15

Well, that's, I mean, and that's the thing, I mean, obviously

Danny: 00:15:17

you're in the creator space, so you've got a lot of lights, etc.

Danny: 00:15:20

that are going on, you know, in your office, so that can get fairly

Danny: 00:15:22

warm anyway, even though you might not be doing anything strenuous, it

Danny: 00:15:25

can get warm, so yeah, I hear you.

Danny: 00:15:29

So, like we say, smarten up, not smarten up, freshen up, man, let's do this.

Danny: 00:15:33

Freshen up, I love it.

Danny: 00:15:35

Freshen up.

Danny: 00:15:35

Alrighty, question number four, moving on.

Danny: 00:15:38

We're eight, we're approaching 80 percent through here, all good stuff.

Danny: 00:15:41

Yeah.

Danny: 00:15:42

Okay, let's find out what kind of healthy or non healthy person you are, Joe.

Danny: 00:15:47

What's in your fridge right now?

Joe: 00:15:50

So this is really good, right?

Joe: 00:15:52

I, cause the fridge is stuff that I've purchased from the grocery store and

Joe: 00:15:56

then stuff my wife has selected to buy.

Joe: 00:15:59

And I'll just say right now, the healthy stuff is all for my wife

Joe: 00:16:01

and the not healthy stuff is for me.

Joe: 00:16:03

So in our fridge right now, we're in a farm share our Chester County,

Joe: 00:16:07

Pennsylvania, famously, I guess, or at least locally, famously.

Joe: 00:16:12

Lots of farm land.

Joe: 00:16:13

We are the number one exporter of mushrooms.

Joe: 00:16:17

And so we know a lot of people with farms are part of a farm share.

Joe: 00:16:19

So we've got like some onions, some lettuce, carrots.

Joe: 00:16:23

We have eggs, fresh eggs, right from the chicken.

Joe: 00:16:27

And that's all part of the farm share that my wife signed us up for.

Joe: 00:16:31

In the other part of the fridge, we have.

Joe: 00:16:33

An assortment of frozen food that could easily be thrown in the oven to eat.

Joe: 00:16:38

So tortellini, pizza bagels, pierogies and then this rebel

Joe: 00:16:44

ice cream that is very low carb.

Joe: 00:16:47

Because even though I just rattled off a bunch of things, I have type 2 diabetes.

Joe: 00:16:50

And so I, I try to draw the line at sweets, right?

Joe: 00:16:54

I'm Italian, so I have a hard time completely cutting out pasta.

Joe: 00:16:57

But I, I will draw the line at sweets.

Joe: 00:17:00

And so Rebel ice cream, great alternative, like, keto friendly, low carb ice cream.

Danny: 00:17:08

And, so have you always been type 2 diabetes, or did

Danny: 00:17:11

that come in later in life?

Joe: 00:17:12

I was diagnosed about three years ago.

Joe: 00:17:16

But we've like, I, I was a lock for this.

Joe: 00:17:20

Both of my parents have type two, type two, my, my maternal grandmother had type

Joe: 00:17:25

two, our family dog had type two diabetes.

Joe: 00:17:29

So like I was, not that that's genetically related, but it's definitely

Joe: 00:17:33

like lifestyle related, I'm sure.

Joe: 00:17:36

So I was like pretty much a lock.

Joe: 00:17:37

It's under, it's under good control and so but yeah, I found out a few

Joe: 00:17:42

years ago, but I've known for a while this is probably in my future.

Joe: 00:17:46

And

Danny: 00:17:47

I'm guessing because it's such a new, you know, diagnosis, is

Danny: 00:17:50

there anything you'd mention, you know, what you have in your fridge,

Danny: 00:17:53

what your wife gets, what you get?

Danny: 00:17:54

And that you do have that, that special ice cream because obviously

Danny: 00:17:57

ice cream, everybody wants ice cream, you know, but is there something that

Danny: 00:18:01

you can't have anymore that you did have prior to three years ago that you

Danny: 00:18:07

really,

Joe: 00:18:08

really miss?

Joe: 00:18:09

Regular soda.

Joe: 00:18:11

Which is probably what got me into the situation in the first place, right?

Joe: 00:18:15

So, I've loosened up since the diagnosis, but like, when I was first

Joe: 00:18:20

diagnosed I spoke to a nutritionist who was like, Alright, because of

Joe: 00:18:23

your situation, you should have like, 40 carbs, 40 to 50 carbs per meal,

Joe: 00:18:29

and then 15 to 20 carbs per snack.

Joe: 00:18:32

And so I was like, all right, well, if I'm eating like salmon, right.

Joe: 00:18:35

For dinner, I'm only eating like salmon and asparagus or something.

Joe: 00:18:39

There's no carbs in that.

Joe: 00:18:42

I could probably have a can of regular Coke, right?

Joe: 00:18:45

Nope.

Joe: 00:18:46

42 carbs in a can.

Joe: 00:18:50

12 ounces of regular coke.

Joe: 00:18:52

So once I figured that out, I was like, all right, like, I live in a world

Joe: 00:18:57

where not only can I easily get my blood sugar at any point during the day,

Joe: 00:19:02

but there's also lots of alternatives.

Joe: 00:19:05

So like, Coke Zero?

Joe: 00:19:07

pretty close.

Joe: 00:19:09

Diet Dr.

Joe: 00:19:10

Pepper, pretty close.

Joe: 00:19:12

And so I do miss the taste of especially cherry Coke, but there are enough

Joe: 00:19:17

close enough alternatives that I'm, I'm not down in the dumps about it.

Joe: 00:19:23

You know, I guess if you really love food, you'll get that statement.

Joe: 00:19:25

If you don't care about food, you'd be like, why would you ever

Joe: 00:19:28

be down in the dumps about food?

Danny: 00:19:29

Oh, no, I hear you.

Danny: 00:19:31

I'm a huge foodie.

Danny: 00:19:32

I mean, I love cooking.

Danny: 00:19:32

I find it really therapeutic.

Danny: 00:19:34

And just messing about with flavours.

Danny: 00:19:35

Oh, is this going to work?

Danny: 00:19:36

Let's try it.

Danny: 00:19:36

If it doesn't, okay, I'm not doing that again.

Danny: 00:19:38

But at least you tried it, right?

Danny: 00:19:39

It's just that experimentation.

Joe: 00:19:41

Yeah, I do that with cocktails.

Joe: 00:19:42

I love making cocktails.

Danny: 00:19:44

Oh, I'll have to manoeuvre my way out that way sometime at a

Danny: 00:19:47

podcast conference or something.

Danny: 00:19:49

Absolutely.

Danny: 00:19:50

Sounds like a plan.

Danny: 00:19:52

So, and obviously because it is a new I'm guessing, how

Danny: 00:19:55

old are your kids again, Joep?

Danny: 00:19:57

You mentioned you've got a little one.

Joe: 00:19:58

Yeah,

Joe: 00:19:59

seven,

Joe: 00:19:59

four and two and a half.

Danny: 00:20:00

And do they work around your diabetes?

Danny: 00:20:04

Do they still have what they want?

Joe: 00:20:06

Yeah, yeah.

Joe: 00:20:07

I was I'm very much a, you know, I did this to myself.

Joe: 00:20:12

It's my personal responsibility.

Joe: 00:20:13

You know, it's like there are some people who are like, Oh, I know you're not

Joe: 00:20:15

drinking, so I'm not going to get a drink.

Joe: 00:20:17

I would never impose that on other people, right?

Joe: 00:20:20

Like, Oh, sorry, I'm getting dessert.

Joe: 00:20:21

No, no, no, no.

Joe: 00:20:22

You live a largely healthy life and you got a salad for dinner and

Joe: 00:20:27

I got like a hamburger for dinner.

Joe: 00:20:29

So like, don't be sad for me.

Joe: 00:20:30

Right.

Joe: 00:20:31

So no, I, we, they get their treats after dinner.

Joe: 00:20:37

I want to reign that in a little bit.

Joe: 00:20:39

I'm like, I, I get like, they're, they're still young and their metabolism is

Joe: 00:20:43

different and they're still growing.

Joe: 00:20:44

But I definitely don't want them to have the bad habits that I had.

Joe: 00:20:49

So like, they, even my oldest, like, hasn't had a regular soda yet.

Joe: 00:20:54

Because when I, like, I had it too early, and like, that's all we, like, my dad

Joe: 00:21:00

doesn't drink water, like, that's a true, that's not an exaggeration, like, and

Joe: 00:21:05

so, thankfully after I started dating Erin, I, my, my now wife, I started

Joe: 00:21:11

drinking more water, I tell people I'd be dead without her, but so, like, we

Joe: 00:21:15

grew up in a household, we didn't grow up in a healthy habits household, and

Joe: 00:21:18

I want to change that for my kids.

Danny: 00:21:20

And that's the thing, right, you always want to do differently

Danny: 00:21:23

from what your parents did with you, not that your parents ever did a bad

Danny: 00:21:26

thing or anything, but you always, I feel as a, as a child you always want

Danny: 00:21:29

to do things differently from how you perceive maybe your parents raised

Danny: 00:21:34

you, and I tend to think you still do

Danny: 00:21:35

stuff that your parents did anyway.

Joe: 00:21:37

Oh my gosh, I'm like a carbon.

Joe: 00:21:39

I mean, like, I'm not kidding anybody.

Joe: 00:21:40

I'm a carbon copy of my old man.

Joe: 00:21:42

Like, the only difference between my dad and me is I read more books than he does.

Joe: 00:21:48

Which is like, the, like, that's a purely academic thing and I probably

Joe: 00:21:53

got that from my, my mom, right?

Joe: 00:21:55

Because my mom loves reading.

Joe: 00:21:57

But other than that, like, We, we have the same mannerisms, we're short with

Joe: 00:22:03

our temper in the same sort of way and the same sort of things bother us.

Joe: 00:22:07

But yeah, my, my parents did a good job, but it was the eighties,

Joe: 00:22:10

nineties, things were different, right?

Joe: 00:22:12

Like way more processed food was coming out.

Joe: 00:22:14

My mom was working, right?

Joe: 00:22:16

Cause she had four, like my parents had four boys that they had to

Joe: 00:22:19

feed, which is an impossible task when they're all teenagers.

Joe: 00:22:24

And so you know, we would go for the easy and the fun thing

Joe: 00:22:27

and we do the same thing.

Joe: 00:22:29

It's just, we live 30, 20 or 30 years on.

Joe: 00:22:34

There's a lot more healthy, easy food out there.

Danny: 00:22:38

And I'm curious what our kids will have in 30 years time.

Danny: 00:22:41

Will they still have nice food to have?

Danny: 00:22:43

Will it be just these little cubes?

Joe: 00:22:44

Yeah, right.

Joe: 00:22:45

Yeah.

Joe: 00:22:46

Little bouillon, like the impossible bouillon cube, right?

Joe: 00:22:49

Or it's like, it tastes like a steak dinner, but it's not.

Joe: 00:22:52

Made from water or something.

Danny: 00:22:54

Exactly.

Danny: 00:22:55

Good luck to them.

Danny: 00:22:56

I'm not I'm hoping Well, you know what?

Danny: 00:22:58

30 years time, maybe I'll still be alive.

Danny: 00:23:00

Maybe not.

Danny: 00:23:00

But I'm not worried if I'm dead because I'm missing that food.

Danny: 00:23:03

I will take that as a trade.

Danny: 00:23:06

Yeah, absolutely.

Danny: 00:23:08

Alrighty, Joe.

Danny: 00:23:09

We're almost at the end here.

Danny: 00:23:11

I feel like Sean, Sean Evans on Now We Feast, you know, he's like, Oh,

Danny: 00:23:15

yeah, we're under the last dab here.

Danny: 00:23:17

Yeah.

Danny: 00:23:17

Got the same kind of hair as Sean Evans.

Danny: 00:23:19

I think he's a little bit balder than me, but we'll see.

Danny: 00:23:21

Anywho, so yeah, we're on to question five.

Danny: 00:23:23

So let's have a look at this and let's reel this one in.

Danny: 00:23:26

Okay, then.

Danny: 00:23:28

Now, this will tie back a little bit to your spontaneity or, you

Danny: 00:23:31

know, Whatever that question was.

Danny: 00:23:33

Spontaneity or stability.

Danny: 00:23:35

That was it.

Danny: 00:23:35

Yep.

Danny: 00:23:36

So question five.

Danny: 00:23:37

Here we go.

Danny: 00:23:38

What's the craziest or most out of character thing you've ever done?

Joe: 00:23:43

Oh, man.

Joe: 00:23:44

Okay, I people who have heard all of, no, that's probably not the

Joe: 00:23:51

most, I was like protecting a friend.

Joe: 00:23:52

Okay, the most out of character thing for me probably, in my

Joe: 00:23:56

early 20s and stupid, mostly.

Joe: 00:23:59

But I try not to be outwardly mean to people who who don't deserve it.

Joe: 00:24:07

And I wrote a very mean blog post about somebody.

Joe: 00:24:14

It was like, it was, I like cringe just thinking about it.

Joe: 00:24:19

And then they read it and confronted me twice about it.

Joe: 00:24:25

And I doubled down both times.

Joe: 00:24:28

Like I never apologized.

Joe: 00:24:31

And I think about it now.

Joe: 00:24:32

And it's just like, I hate that.

Joe: 00:24:36

Like, I don't, I don't have a lot of regrets.

Joe: 00:24:39

I regret.

Joe: 00:24:40

writing it, and I regret the way I handled it.

Joe: 00:24:45

And like, sure, stupid 18 to 20 year old guy who's like not thinking

Joe: 00:24:51

about long term ramifications, but in other situations, I'm direct and

Joe: 00:25:01

I will, I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong and I just was neither

Joe: 00:25:06

of those things in that situation.

Joe: 00:25:09

So something I think about every few months and not, I'm not like haunted by

Joe: 00:25:13

it, but I do think about it sometimes.

Joe: 00:25:15

And I'm just like, man, I was an idiot.

Joe: 00:25:18

Like every, every time I think about it.

Joe: 00:25:21

And

Danny: 00:25:21

like you say, I mean, you, you were young and we've all done silly things.

Danny: 00:25:25

I'm curious, E, did you ever?

Danny: 00:25:29

Clear the air after these two times and then I guess B maybe, is there anything

Danny: 00:25:34

in that you find specific that makes you think of that times that just pop

Danny: 00:25:39

into your, your head from nowhere?

Joe: 00:25:41

Yeah, that's like the, that's like the horrible thing about

Joe: 00:25:44

just random thoughts, right?

Joe: 00:25:45

Is it'll just like pop in from time to time or like, you know, and when I'm

Joe: 00:25:48

even prompted like this and I thought about it, it like doesn't, it's when it

Joe: 00:25:53

just like creeps in and I'm like Yeah.

Joe: 00:25:56

We never cleared the air and it's part of me is because so like it upset this person

Joe: 00:26:03

so much and they've more or less like disavowed themselves of me that I worry

Joe: 00:26:09

that just like sliding in and like my very like existence will upset this person,

Joe: 00:26:15

you know and so, you know, I feel like it's a very let sleeping dogs lie thing.

Joe: 00:26:21

Now, if, if, you know, If they're listening they know I don't know.

Joe: 00:26:25

You know, but if they are they know exactly who they are.

Joe: 00:26:28

And I, I do regret the way I acted because it's not.

Joe: 00:26:34

It's not me.

Joe: 00:26:35

It wasn't me then.

Joe: 00:26:36

It's definitely not me now.

Danny: 00:26:38

Well, I think that's part of human growth though, right?

Danny: 00:26:40

We, we do things and it's, it's as we get older and we see, you know,

Danny: 00:26:45

why it wasn't the right thing to do.

Danny: 00:26:47

And then we try, you know, espouse that to our kids and explain, okay,

Danny: 00:26:50

don't ever do anything like this because it's wrong and explain why.

Danny: 00:26:53

Right.

Danny: 00:26:53

So it's it's not nice because obviously, as you mentioned, it ruined a

Danny: 00:26:56

friendship and it's, it's hurt someone.

Danny: 00:26:58

But if it's a learning thing, I feel it's.

Danny: 00:27:01

Not good, because that's the wrong word, but it's good for our personal

Danny: 00:27:05

growth and to, we can try our best to make it right, but as you mentioned,

Danny: 00:27:09

at some stage we just have to step back and say, okay, I hurt that person

Danny: 00:27:12

and You know, I'll let them be now.

Joe: 00:27:15

Yeah, right.

Joe: 00:27:16

And if I ever run into this person in the street, it'll be the first thing I say.

Joe: 00:27:21

Until then, if they have not thought about me and never think about me again, then

Joe: 00:27:25

that's, that's perfectly fine as well.

Danny: 00:27:27

That's a good way,

Danny: 00:27:28

that's a good way to think about it, I think.

Danny: 00:27:30

Alrighty, so we made it.

Danny: 00:27:32

We got through the five questions.

Joe: 00:27:34

We got real deep there.

Joe: 00:27:35

I don't usually get this deep.

Joe: 00:27:37

I don't usually get that deep.

Danny: 00:27:38

Well, this is what I like about this, this format.

Danny: 00:27:41

I mean, as I mentioned, we don't know what the questions are.

Danny: 00:27:43

And it kind of, it doesn't force you, but I think it encourages you to, to

Danny: 00:27:49

maybe answer, you know, something that you hadn't thought of for a while.

Danny: 00:27:52

So it's, and I like the fact that it can be, one minute it can be something silly.

Danny: 00:27:56

You know about B.

Danny: 00:27:57

O.

Danny: 00:27:57

and dogs in an elevator, and then the next thing would be something like that.

Danny: 00:28:01

So, yeah, I appreciate you sharing with that.

Danny: 00:28:03

Yeah, of course, of course.

Danny: 00:28:05

And I think, in fairness, this is the part of the show that it's fair

Danny: 00:28:08

to the guests who've put themselves out there and open up, honestly

Danny: 00:28:12

to myself and you, the listener.

Danny: 00:28:14

I think it's only fair to allow Joe the random question he can throw my way.

Joe: 00:28:18

Well, it's not gonna be as deep as that.

Joe: 00:28:21

I was thinking about this.

Joe: 00:28:22

It's also, I guess it's not really random either for those who don't have

Joe: 00:28:26

access to the video, I'm currently wearing an Obi Wan Kenobi shirt.

Joe: 00:28:30

I see Boba Fett in the background, and I know Danny that you're

Joe: 00:28:33

a Star Wars fan, right?

Joe: 00:28:35

And so my question is, who would you want to be your master?

Joe: 00:28:41

in all of Star Wars and the extended universe.

Joe: 00:28:44

So I was going to say Jedi Master, but I don't want to assume you're

Joe: 00:28:47

picking the light side, right?

Joe: 00:28:48

So like who, whose apprentice do you most want to be in all of Star

Joe: 00:28:54

Wars and the extended universe?

Danny: 00:28:56

Oh,

Joe: 00:28:57

that's a really good one.

Danny: 00:28:58

And there's so many as well.

Danny: 00:28:59

I mean, I'm, I'm a huge Star Wars fan, but I'm not, Like one of the ones that

Danny: 00:29:03

are super into every aspect and faucet of the, the Lord behind it and everything.

Danny: 00:29:09

I know Mark, my colleague, you know, Mark, Mark Asquith and Garry Aylott

Danny: 00:29:13

they would know so much more than me.

Danny: 00:29:15

Because that's, that's a thing, right?

Danny: 00:29:16

That they have their own podcast about Star Wars.

Danny: 00:29:18

Yeah.

Danny: 00:29:19

So.

Danny: 00:29:20

I, I think of the, the books I've read and of the shows and the movies, et

Danny: 00:29:26

cetera, I'd probably go with Kanan Jarrus, Kanan Jarrus from Rebels.

Danny: 00:29:33

If you watch the Rebels TV show, you'll know who he is.

Danny: 00:29:36

He may have appeared in comics beforehand.

Danny: 00:29:38

I'm not sure, but obviously that's where.

Danny: 00:29:39

Rebels is where I got to know him and he's, he's been name dropped

Danny: 00:29:43

in the Ahsoka, which I thought was awesome because that tied

Danny: 00:29:46

these two universes together.

Joe: 00:29:49

He also, he also makes a little cameo in Bad Batch.

Danny: 00:29:53

Yes, he does.

Danny: 00:29:54

Yes.

Danny: 00:29:54

Right at the start, I believe, right?

Danny: 00:29:56

Isn't he the kid that runs off or something?

Danny: 00:29:58

He's the kid.

Danny: 00:29:58

Yep.

Danny: 00:29:59

Yep.

Danny: 00:29:59

Yeah, I forgot about that.

Danny: 00:30:00

Good, good one.

Danny: 00:30:01

I forgot.

Danny: 00:30:02

Yeah, I don't know.

Danny: 00:30:02

I feel he's the most pure, like how he taught Ezra.

Danny: 00:30:08

You know, he took Ezra on board and taught Ezra.

Danny: 00:30:10

And how he, and I don't want to give any spoilers away for anyone

Danny: 00:30:13

that's not watched Rebels, but might want to watch it to catch up on.

Danny: 00:30:16

You know, the backstory to Ahsoka and, you know, all that stuff,

Danny: 00:30:19

but how he did what he did at an important time that completely

Danny: 00:30:24

changed the direction of the show.

Danny: 00:30:27

So yeah, I would say Ken, and I'm going to get his name wrong, so I please, I know

Danny: 00:30:31

what the Star Wars fans can be like, I'm just going to unline it at the minute.

Danny: 00:30:33

Oof, it's, it's, it's all Wild West.

Danny: 00:30:36

Showdown over there at the minute.

Danny: 00:30:38

But yeah, Kanan Jarrus, that'd be my, my master I feel.

Danny: 00:30:41

What about you?

Danny: 00:30:41

I'm going to ping it back to you, I think.

Joe: 00:30:42

Oh so I, I love that answer.

Joe: 00:30:45

Cause I don't think you would hear it a lot, but yeah, Kanan's great.

Joe: 00:30:48

I'm, I mean, I love Obi Wan, but I feel like that's such a boring answer,

Joe: 00:30:54

but I don't, I think now that the show is out, this answer is also going to

Joe: 00:30:57

be boring, but I love Ahsoka Tano.

Joe: 00:31:00

I think she's great.

Joe: 00:31:01

I think she has like the, you know, the the spontaneity of Anakin, right.

Joe: 00:31:08

With a little bit of like the, the wisdom and stability of, of Obi Wan.

Joe: 00:31:14

And so she's not afraid to do the right thing, but she, you know, She acts

Joe: 00:31:17

prudent, and much like a self employed person, she realized that she wanted

Joe: 00:31:24

to continue her practice, but could not live within the co Well, I guess I'm,

Joe: 00:31:28

like, really spoiling Clone Wars here.

Joe: 00:31:30

But Of the Jedi order.

Joe: 00:31:32

So really, I, you know, I, I really liked that about her and like, I read

Joe: 00:31:36

her the book about her and it was just really, really great character.

Joe: 00:31:41

So that's, that's who I'd pick.

Danny: 00:31:43

I like it.

Danny: 00:31:44

That's a good one.

Danny: 00:31:44

And the show, I thought Rosario Dawson nailed that.

Danny: 00:31:47

Yeah.

Danny: 00:31:47

And even when she appeared in the Mandalorian, you know, I thought she

Danny: 00:31:50

nailed that character introduction.

Danny: 00:31:52

So it'll be interesting to see where season two, hopefully they're

Danny: 00:31:54

going to have it, where that goes.

Joe: 00:31:56

This is the thing I like about Ahsoka, right?

Joe: 00:31:58

Cause like, when we're introduced to Ahsoka in the first episode of Clone

Joe: 00:32:01

Wars, which was like a Clone Wars movie she was like 14 and very immature.

Joe: 00:32:07

And then like, we see her fast forward 50 or so years later, you know, and she

Joe: 00:32:11

is There's a lot of character development for us to witness, which is great.

Danny: 00:32:18

Yeah, I'm 100%.

Danny: 00:32:20

And I know they're drawn about doing a like Dave Filoni's on about

Danny: 00:32:23

bringing all these disparate universes together, like all the shows together.

Danny: 00:32:27

So the Rebels Era, Ahsoka, Thrawn.

Danny: 00:32:30

Bad Batch, everything's leading up to this big Mandalorian, this big movie event,

Danny: 00:32:34

you know, in a couple of years time.

Danny: 00:32:35

So I'll be curious to see what that is.

Joe: 00:32:37

Yeah, super exciting.

Joe: 00:32:39

I love that we got to see on screen Thrawn.

Joe: 00:32:42

Or like real life Thrawn, I guess.

Danny: 00:32:44

Yeah, real life on screen, we'll go with both.

Danny: 00:32:47

Live action.

Danny: 00:32:47

Live action, that's the word.

Danny: 00:32:49

Live action.

Danny: 00:32:50

And we're not cutting that out.

Danny: 00:32:51

We're going to let Joe sound really, you know, off the chart

Danny: 00:32:54

when he's trying to describe what an animation to live action is called.

Joe: 00:32:58

That's good.

Joe: 00:32:58

People, people should see that.

Joe: 00:33:00

You know, it's I know it's hard to believe, but I'm

Joe: 00:33:01

not brilliant all the time.

Danny: 00:33:05

So Joe, I really appreciate you coming on today's episode and

Danny: 00:33:07

opening up and talking to me about the five questions that you were asked.

Danny: 00:33:11

For people that want to find out what you do from a work point of view, podcast

Danny: 00:33:14

point of view, or just in life in general.

Danny: 00:33:17

Where's the best place to connect and find you?

Joe: 00:33:20

I think casabona.

Joe: 00:33:21

org is the place.

Joe: 00:33:22

You know, usually I come on these shows, I have like a landing page set

Joe: 00:33:25

up, but you know, this was a really good, casual kind of open conversation.

Joe: 00:33:28

Casabona.

Joe: 00:33:29

org has been my blog since two thousand and two.

Joe: 00:33:32

And so you can go there and, and.

Joe: 00:33:35

It's been cleaned up, obviously.

Joe: 00:33:37

But yeah, there's a lot of stuff about me there.

Joe: 00:33:39

And then I'm on almost every social network as Jay Casabona, which

Joe: 00:33:44

is also linked over at casabona.

Joe: 00:33:46

org.

Danny: 00:33:46

That makes it nice and easy.

Danny: 00:33:48

And speaking of links, I'll be sure to leave the link to

Danny: 00:33:50

that in the old show notes.

Danny: 00:33:51

So whatever app you're listed on, make sure to check that out.

Danny: 00:33:54

And I'll link that right over to Joe's site.

Danny: 00:33:56

So, Joe, again, thanks so much for being here today.

Joe: 00:33:58

Thanks for having me.

Joe: 00:33:59

This was so much fun.

Danny: 00:34:01

Thanks for listening to five Random Questions.

Danny: 00:34:03

If you enjoyed this week's episode, be sure to follow for three on the

Danny: 00:34:06

app you're currently listening on or online at fiverandomquestions.com.

Danny: 00:34:10

And if you feel like leaving the review well that'd make me happy in that time.

Danny: 00:34:14

I met Darth Vader.

Danny: 00:34:15

At my local supermarket, because yes, that's what Darth Vader does.

Danny: 00:34:19

Signs autographs for 13-year-old boys at local supermarkets.

Danny: 00:34:22

So it's obviously the real Darth Vader, and I'm not taking any other answer.

Danny: 00:34:25

But seriously, if you got to live with you for the show, it'd

Danny: 00:34:28

make my day until the next time.

Danny: 00:34:30

Keep asking those questions.
