Hopes & Dreams

0:02 Hello, and welcome back to another episode of A Record of My father, Happy New Years to our listeners out there. And today we're going to talk about hopes and dreams for this year. Maybe, maybe a few resolutions that we may or may not stick to, right? Hell no. Well. What's your What's the resolution that's on your mind? Me. Yeah. I I kind of think about like the things that I mean. Yeah, we're talking about that with it's the hopes and dreams of what the coming year's gonna bring and possibly you know what it runs into also. But it has to go. I have to look back too and if I look back at my book of workouts, I worked out quite frequently not not as much as I should but I feel like I'm in better health.

0:48 I've I've got, you know, the blood was all better and all these good things happened because I was, you know, more focused on. I think I've finally come to the conclusion that I'm retired, so now I need to take the next step. That was an accepting thing. I think of this year. That's. AI keep saying that and it's like I keep, you know, and then and then all of a sudden I get taunted and then I want to come and then I kind of want to go back into work. And then I'm like, I don't have a focus. I don't, It's not there. It's not going to happen, you know, maybe maybe something I'll trip over that I'll like, but you know, that's that's not here. And then, you know, then I I want to continue that. I, I want to focus on health. And I think as you get older that you really think about mobility that's the kind of thing that is I'm 64, I'm, I'm relatively healthy.

1:37 I could probably, you know, run 100 yards in under 5 minutes. I could. I think mobility and flexibility as well is something. Flexibility is a thing that I'm short on. I am the tightest, just always sort of frenzied, not, you know, at least my muscles. Yeah, you like to just make me. Scream. Yeah, that, that. We should talk about that. Like why you like to make me scream? He takes the rollerball and he rubs it or the little vibrating thing and puts it on my back and. Yeah. Until I scream. And then that, you know, that makes him. Happy. It's just the best, but it's the best. I think just general warming up before I work out is something that I want to do, 'cause I don't even really do that. I do warm up sets, but I'll never do like actual warm up exercises like bird dogs or something like that. What's a bird dog?

2:32 It's where, like, you meet your knee and your elbow, but like, oh wow, here. Like when you're on the ground, on the ground, kind of like in a plank position. And yeah, and that's supposed to, like, straighten your spine or something or something like that. 'Cause I do that in the when you do the what is the downward facing dog? And the upward whatever the heck it is. When you take a flow or something. Into the where you're where. You curl your back. Yeah, I I go down and do the the whatever the heck the prayer thing is when you put your face to your forehead on the ground and I try to put my elbows down as slow as I can and then I slide all the way forward and have the arc. Back. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure that that's.

3:16 I think it's the Yoshi. The Yoshi. That's what he does right before he runs, so I've been copying the dog. That's it. I want to do his thing where he's sticking one of his legs back and like so far. Like I don't even know how he gets it back that far but if he really tried he could probably put a put a leg around his head. I'm I'm sure he could and. When he straightens it out, yeah, and. Then. He stands on one leg when he does that. Yeah. Yeah, and you're just like, dude, dude, that's not that. That's whoa. We might make our book this year, and it's gonna be. Make her what? 55 yoga positions. 55 Yoga Positions by Yoshi. Brown. By Yoshi Brown.

3:56 By Yoshi Brown Watch. I would. I would read. That watch by Watch by Yub Yub. There you go. Oh yeah, she could be the producer on the the CD, yeah, or the DVD, I guess. Yeah, we OK. Now we have a new idea on what we're gonna hopes and dreams for this. Is a new resolution here. For this year, yeah, we're gonna admit we're gonna make a table. A table book. What is it? A a coffee table book. Coffee table book. Yeah. Yoshi and 55 puppy dog positions you. Know that would be great. I like that idea. Yeah, but I think also. That's a resolution. Walk. Walk every day. Walking every day is something that I started to do mean later this year or last year I guess. I got helpful you were.

4:36 Crazy this year. Yeah. You do a what? No, you weren't. You were doing like closing 10K steps every five days or like, yeah. Exactly I did. I averaged over the whole year 10,200 steps, which is good that's, that's. But I want to like I'm going to try to up it a little bit this year. Yeah. You know, and that'll that'll come with focus, you know, maybe I'm. I'm going to try. I think I'm going to do dry. You wary? I was thinking about doing that as well other than when I am going to do that. I'm already two days into it, so hey, it's going to be easy. That's like over half a month already, right? Yeah, half a month already, you know, two more days and.

5:16 Well, if your hangover's so bad going into it, it makes it way easier. Oh yeah, yeah. It makes it way easier. Oh, so true. So very, very true. That that's what gets you really thinking about it. It's like how much time you have and you don't probably think about this. You probably don't have no lift to the horizon for when you're 40 or 50 or 60. When you're 60 something you're then all of a sudden you're looking like, well, death's right around the. Corner could be tomorrow. Could be, yeah, yeah, exactly. It's. It's all that everybody has all the issues and I have, you know, people dropping now at my age and I think I skipped the cancer thing. Maybe I'm going to die of a heart attack or something like that. I just don't want to be a pudding head.

5:56 And if I'm a pudding. Head I just like yeah. That's that's the thing. You know it. Seems someone still. Well, I still think that. I think it's going to be funny because if I keep making jokes about it, people are going to call, call, start calling me Pudding Head, and I'm going to have a nickname and you're going to buy, you're going to buy me a pink sweatshirt with pet Pudding Head on it and say I'm a Pudding Head. Well, how much? Did you talk about it already? I'm surprised that it I'll. I'll change my. I'll change my Gmail address to pudding head. Pudding head done from Onshore 1 back then, Yeah, but what was I thinking about? Oh yeah, focusing on eating more vegetables and making like, your stomach happier. I was thinking about. Oh yeah, yeah.

6:36 That's yeah. I think that that for me is what I'm trying to think of is what is it? It's it it when I eat more vegetables and when I eat a variety of different things than I stay. I mean, we we we did a lot of for her birthday last year, I did the Green Chef thing. Yeah, I remember that. Yeah. And we we I was consistently feeling good. Yeah. You know, and it's expensive. It's crazy. You know. But it but it's like I'm I'm I'm I'm lucky to be in a position I'm in because that's not a major concern. So, so it it, it and it.

7:20 And if it makes you feel better, the only thing is, is it's very arduous. You know, it's you commit every day 30 minutes to making one meal. But I don't think that's that's just cooking. It's. Just it is. It is. Well, you know, a lot of people when you get to a certain age, you're like, I've been, I've been doing it for for. 6. I've been cooking since I was 6, so you know, for me, for me, it's like not cooking well. But I didn't say no one ever said I was cooking. Well, I could. I could cook hot dogs at six years old. So that's dinner, baby peanut. Butter. Throw the fries until they get hot. Can't you leave me there? No, I'm hungry. God.

8:04 You never. We never had overcooked fries at the brown house. Unless somebody just put them in and completely forgot them and then they and then they were black. They were either they were either cold in the center or black. There's no, you know, nobody did, nobody nobody did timely. Things like that. Hopes and dreams that I don't eat cold in the center fries or black fries, but. The hot dogs were always lukewarm. I was still here. Yeah, the worst, the worst hot dogs were the 11:00 AM hot dogs that you left on the stove from the night before. And then you went in and you and you looked at the water and it was kind of and it had that shield on it. And you just said.

8:46 Yeah, it looks like dog water. And then you just turn it on and you heat it back up, 'cause they're in a boiled pot, you know, And you're just like, whatever, as long as there's no bugs in with them. Oh my. God, the face of well, I think The thing is, is that that we waste so much more now than when what we would consider waste today is not what we would have considered waste when I was a kid. No, exactly. No, it's it's completely. In our country we throw 1/2 of everything we purchase away I. Mean when we get moldy. Bread. If we keep bread long enough for it to mold, which you know, yeah we would, we would throw it away. Whereas when I was growing up, we just tore the blue stuff off. Yeah, even though it comes from the center of the bread, I'm pretty sure.

9:36 Exactly. You know, I didn't know that. I learned that recently too. That's why I'm so messed up that. Doesn't just accumulate? I was doing a lot of LSD as as a six year old. Oh, that's why you're so smart now. Yeah, it's so worldly. Oh dude, let's be Zen. Wow. Let's be Zen. Yeah, David. Clarity, I mean. I think about the things that I want to do and want to accomplish. It's like, you know, and typically people want like some financial reward. And I feel like that I just had a windfall this past month that everything's just really cool that that's not on the table. I'm not, I'm not hunting for some new wind financially or something like that. Obviously, if it comes along and something goes well, well yeah, I'm happy.

10:23 But it's not something I'm driven for and it's not something I'm going to go hunt for. And I'm not going to go hunt to look for companies that are really interesting to me that I mean if they're interesting and I can work with them, I will, but I'm not gonna. I'm not looking for the monetary side and I've kind of stopped doing that. But you know, in the last a a few things have changed and gone well and things like that. But that isn't on my list, which I think is kind of interesting cuz it's always been on my list. You know, this is a big change. The financial thing is always like, where are you going? What are you going to do? Are you going to be able to do this? This is going to be good. Is that and that. And I would always think that through and say, OK, what what are my obligations going forward? How can I expand the obligations? What is this? What is this? What is this? And it's like, Nah, that's not it.

11:05 So that being said, what the hell am I going to do with my time? Yeah, become an oil painter. I knew I was reading a story the other day about an oil painter. He started painting when he was 79 or 78, and he wanted to do it his whole life. And then he's talking to his, his son. And his son was like, wow, wow, Dad, you're doing this. You're getting really good at it. By the time he was like, he died at 88, but he was getting really good at about 8283. And he's like, I finally found him. I've been wanting to do my whole life like at that age, and it really is about becoming a beginner in something again and then mastering that. You know, maybe that's maybe that's what I need to do. And. Yeah, cuz I think what what's gonna happen is I'm gonna do a lot of what mom was doing that that your mother was doing is like, you know, through the years she will find hobbies and start them and then pursue them until she gets really good at it and then she'll leave. Whereas me, I am someone that finds something that looks interesting and cool, pursues it for like an hour and then it throws away all the shit that I bought to make it happen. Cuz it's not.

12:11 It's not it. Yeah, the rowing machine is but. Luckily I have friends that have had a lot of shitty hobbies and they just, they give it, they loan it to me and then I I get bored with it like I did it with piano. I wanted to do a piano and I haven't done that. I didn't. I haven't written anything. I haven't. I didn't I had was going to read all these books and I read I think I read six last year which is that's. Still more than than you did the year before that, if you think about it. Absolutely, I would like to. I would like to go out on a limb and try to read 12 this year. Do it. I think it's possible. And I'm actually, you know if I include the I don't I won't include anything, I'll start from zero. Right now I'm doing concept of of a politician, I think by Carl Schmidt.

12:56 Oh yeah, Concept of the political Yeah, that's what you're. Of a political Yeah. Which, I thought, is like, the dude's a freaking Nazi. Yeah, that was originally the manifesto, I think, for supporting certain aspects of fascism, I'm pretty sure. Right it it. It is. It is. He was one of the few, but I mean, he's like a Harvard trained dude and you know, hey. Yeah, exactly. With the instigation of those laws and like what he was referring to as a utopia, right, is fascism, which is just unrealistic. I mean, I don't think that that's, yeah, it is something that appears to be a utopia's often a dystopia, right. And I don't, I don't know him. I think that that's that's what he was. I think people think that when you're at the top of the heap that you're going to be a nice person. And unfortunately, when you're at the top of the heap, the only thing you kind of think about is not letting anybody else climb up the mountain.

13:51 It's like the person that has everything, what is the one thing that they can do and is not allow other people to pursue like. Right. Because hey, if everybody has everything, it's no, it's I'm not really. There's always gonna be something you know or cool. I need to just stomp on them. You. Know. But yeah. As for that, what did I close last year? I think it was about like 32 or 33 books and I want to do well. The first one this year is going to be Infinite Jest, but I'm halfway through right now. I sent you Allison's List 41. Were those were those? Were those audiobooks or were those like? Red, Red, I don't know. I think a lot of red books because she drives back and forth to any I I guess. Oh, gotcha. OK I. Don't know. I I didn't. I didn't ask but she said these are the ones she's read.

14:33 But and she said should I listen to a lot of it? I'm like, OK doesn't. Count. I'm sorry. Nope, doesn't count. Nope, doesn't count. But you know what I was thinking about the other day? It's a machine at which you could use to read while you were driving instead of like, you know how people are always on their phones. Imagine if you could read while you were driving. How crazy would that be? You'd like, put the hang the book from the ceiling of your car or something and have a cage turn? Oh, that'd be wonderful. No. That'd be great. I think that I think that we should figure that out. I think that we we we do. It's called audiobooks. No, no, no, no. You need to physically be able to read it. Yeah, OK. To get up and see. Now think about physically driving a car and viewing the road while you're reading.

15:18 I think you can do that if you're in like a Tesla and it has the auto drive, 'cause I know my. Friend was using his super the other day. I didn't even know that that it's more than just the Tesla's now. Yes, who has it too? Yeah, yeah. But it's like, not even with the the lane or the car, like the reading of the car. It's the entirety of it. It's on a pilot. The entirety is on a pilot, yeah. Because ours is is keeps you in the lane and keeps you a set distance behind the car in front of you or at A at a preselected. Speed. This does all, so that's cool, yeah. It doesn't. I don't. It doesn't lane correct if. It also stops if you run in if you think you're gonna run into something that looks. So scary when it does that. Yeah, It just makes me go. Yeah, I.

16:00 Remember there's a rock like a Pebble or something behind the Subaru. I was backing it up and it just slams on. I thought I had a bear or something. Yeah, what was that? I wish I had that on the Audi when I backed into that Cadillac though. Oh, I remember that. I remember. That that was so like, you idiot. That's true. And you know, it was it was after we bought the beer. Damn. I didn't drink any, Yeah. It's always went after you bought the beer, I think. Yeah, I think that's the whole thing. But I think also for the show as well, be more consistent would be kind of a cool thing to do, getting a bunch of episodes on the back burner of being able. To I want to just. Being able to put them down pretty consistently and more consistently than we have been because zinc last year was a huge travel year for you and me as well.

16:46 Like, yeah, and yeah, that was is it gonna happen? Yeah, last year was a lot. Yeah. Last year was a lot of a lot of places for you. And this year's, I mean, right now I've only got 3, so that's pretty good. Well, we can be a little more consistent. One a little. Bit more. I'm doing 2 continents and 12345, maybe six countries, but not that, not really that much, no. Not, not really. It's only. 6 Not, not not not typically and. But The thing is, that's only in a that's in a squashed OH.

17:27 OK, I got you. Oh. I didn't think about and August that June. June is taken 2 for a wedding, but I can always squeeze a, you know, a set. I can always bring my microphones down and figure something out, yeah. Yeah, I think that that works. I can do. From, you know, I'm gonna do Europe again. You know, we're gonna do Paris to London and some other things. Those are the things that I, I, I, I would like to find. I was kind of hoping that maybe that we're gonna go see Gaverni. And. Yeah, and that. And it's gonna be in May. So the flowers are gonna just start. Yeah, I'm gonna probably, I'm, I'm definitely gonna steal some flowers or I'm gonna rip a piece of his fence off and bring it home.

18:11 Just. Make sure you don't get cataracts while you're there. Like he had, yeah. He had cataracts when he painted the water lilies. Yeah. Wow, isn't that crazy? He's like 90% blind when he made his giant 3 panel painting and that's still always. That's why I saw it twice last year at the the MoMA. Well, now, are they going to be there during the summer? Because if they are, I'm wondering if if what is in the Monet Museum in Paris. I have no idea because. Those were. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna. Go for a year. I'm pretty sure. I don't know where they'll make their rounds. Yeah, they'll probably just be walls with the whole thing will just be kind of like white painted just. White, but it was huge.

18:52 I mean, he did more than three panels. No, it was like 3 gigantic panels. I think he did. I don't know. I think he did 12 or because it was 2 rooms, each room was maybe but. You saw two rooms. Oh, that. Yeah, I saw. 2. Nights or something. Not in the Louvre, not This was a museum and it's right near the Eiffel Tower and it's flat and it's two big rooms and you walk in one. It was like, I don't know, eight, you know, a couple 100 francs. This is pre euro times and we went in there and we went in the first room and it was you walk through like a little entryway, you go into corridor and then there's an Oval and you see the Oval and the water lilies are painted all the way around and they're like 4 to freaking ceiling. They're about a foot off the floor and they go almost to the ceiling and they're maybe 8 or 10 feet. Panels are huge.

19:47 And you go in and you just, you stand in the center of the room and you look around and you're just like, Oh my gosh. And then you go in the second room and it's like, Oh my gosh again. Yeah, it's just really breathtaking. Yeah, it just, it stops you. I I saw him in a Baltimore museum. And I I don't know if I I probably told the story to you 100 times, but not here. But I remember they had this little you had to walk because it was, it was kind of like a townhouse. It was four stories and the paintings were all on the walls. And they had a little place that you walked close to the painting, so you were like 3 feet away to view it. Yeah. And it was a corridor of people coming in and going out. It was that popular and that many people.

20:28 There's lines around the block and tickets and timing and all that other kind of silly stuff. We're going. And when you when you're in the corridor and you're standing 3 feet from a Monet painting, it doesn't look like anything. Oh yeah, the pointless. And this is before we went to Europe. And then I turned around and I looked across the room at the other one, and that's when I was like, Oh my God, that's you. You can't look at these from three feet away. You have to look at them from 12 to 15 feet away. And hence his cataracts, 'cause he was, you know, looking at stuff like this, which appeared to be really far away. So it was really just kind of like, you know, one of those moments I I, you know, some people get him an art. I I whatever you what?

21:14 Whatever floats that floats my boat. That just. Yeah. And I think that that I I'm not sure if I went there after or before, 'cause it was, it was like my birthday present. She took me to Baltimore and then did the We rented a bed and breakfast up there, stayed in some little place. And that was neat, very neat. Anyway, what do I want to do in the next year when I think about hopes and dreams? What are my hopes? That everybody stays healthy. You know what I mean? Yeah, there's a lot of lot of people that are like they haven't come out of Pandemic yet and you kind of feel like they're they're still.

21:58 Like what do you? Mean by that psychologically? Oh yeah, psychologically closed off. That their, that their, that their minds have changed somewhat because you know you're closed off for what, a couple years or 18 months or however long you decide to be. And it's and it's interjected this new thing into people's psyche that is just very different. Like isolation is what you're. Referring to right? And they got used to isolation and and The thing is is like I'm I'm that doesn't work for me. Yeah. You know. No, it doesn't for me as well. I mean, you have to have to go out, right? I mean, you know that it's like we're walking down the street in New York and I start, I strike up a conversation with you know the the check in lady or whatever and.

22:42 You know, like. Quit being creepy. And it's like I I just, it isn't about like I'm interested in anything other than interaction with with fellow humans. So, you know, that kind of stuff. No, exactly. You do thrive on that. Yeah, I will talk to anybody. And then stream extrovert I've ever known. Yeah. My brother was that way. Yeah. He would carry on a conversation with the Checkers and and you were just like, dude, you're even weirder than me. Well, I think that's important. I think it's important, but it it's also what you talk about with the checkers. I think that is where I I never because that's what I do all the time as well. When I see people in my building, I start to have a conversation and it's fun. You show them that you care, yeah.

23:24 But a lot of times, too, in public, people just don't want to fucking talk to each other, you know? They just don't want to do it. They're so bothered. Yeah, I think that's what wireless headphones and even before the the wire headphones really did. I love, I love. I love to catch eye contact. Say hi, he's. Like. No. And have the person look at me. Yeah. And then they don't know what to do. And then you smile. And then I walk right past them and I go got another one. So you know, you get a scowl back and that's almost as rewarding in my opinion. I What the scout or not like? Like, what is this guy so happy about?

24:05 Huh. Yeah. What's he hunting? Yeah, yeah. That that that healthy, healthy is important, you know physical. And I and and I think that I think that a a continued path and possibly an expanded path on the workout would be good. I think a regularized cardio is what I want to do, like a regularized schedule for cardio, 'cause I have been neglecting cardiovascular stuff for so long, but I've been weightlifting, but I haven't been doing any things really gotten to what they referred to as the second anaerobic stage, which would be like running, right? Running, you know, like. For five miles I haven't run a long time. I do, which I should probably, you know, at least jog a bit. But I walk very very fast.

24:57 Yeah, but I it's it still doesn't get you to that second anaerobic stage of being, like, right in between comfortable and uncomfortable. Like 120? Yeah, heartbeat. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's what I wanna do. I wanna get back to being able to consistently. Get to when you get comfortable with that, I it's been a long time since I was like run 5 miles and you're just you get to a point where you're in a like a Nirvana area. Where? That's why I wanna get back to again. And you're just like and you're like, but you're moving and your body's moving and you're running and then you're doing the and it's but and your arms just balance, right? And you breathe perfectly and you're not panting. You know, like, you know you're doing that. The wet dog pant, yeah. Yeah, I was doing the dog pant.

25:38 Because weight nothing's great and everything, but it's at the same time, it doesn't really help your cardiomascular. I started doing range I I after you left. You know how we used to go to the point from the pool out to the point? Point to the Yeah, yeah, I know. You're I would go instead of going to the point I go down the hill all the way to the which is kind of like Fuji like with when I look at it. I think it's straight down. Yeah, straight down to the to the water. I take them all the way down there and then they run around in circles, they laugh and just run back up. And so I'm panting, chasing them up the hill. And it makes me, it makes me move fast.

26:19 So rarely. I mean, before I started doing this, the only time I ever sweated was when we did mountains, cliffs and stuff like that. Now every time I go out, that comeback is just, it's brutal. And I got to get to the point where it's not brutal because then I'm going to extend it because I have another extension that I can do a circle. And they just, you know, they're not. They're happy, the little rats. And I think that that's finding something that we are going to remain consistent with as well get. Up in the. Morning time before I ran and I'm like, oh, I'm going to do this tomorrow and no, I don't. No. I don't do it, no. Well, the the thing that kills that immediately is if you drink. Yeah.

27:00 Oh, yeah. Yeah. That. That just totally wet. I used to think it was only weed. You know if you smoke weed that you're not going to do anything the next day. No, no. Alcohol does the same thing. It's not AS. Exercise. Yeah, it's not as debilitating. It's typically, but it's still, it's still the same thing. So I mean, for me it would be OK drink less. No for sure. Because I'll be healthier. I know it and I know how I feel better and you sleep better and all the different things like that. That will be a good thing, you know? But I love the party. So there's this, there's a, there's the yin and Yang there. I love, I love the. I love that feeling. I've always. Yeah, the yin and Yang party. Well, The thing is, the feeling afterward has become worse. Oh, I can't imagine.

27:45 Are you saying that you don't recover as well as you once did when you were? Yeah. I mean, I used to be able to like that. That was that was always my hard and fast rule was don't do the crime if you can't do the time. So if you're gonna go out and party till 2:00 AM, that's fine as long as you show up at 7:00. And I was always the first one there. Only because you know, being the owner or one of the owners or one of the senior whatever the Hecks I was that you you couldn't like, go out and hey, I'm gonna go drinking with Zach until two. And then Zach shows up at 7:00 when he 7:00 AM when he's supposed to. Yeah, and I sleep in. Yeah, and then that and then just reflects him poorly. Oh God, the amount of. So usually I would be the one that showed up at 6:45 and and people would, yeah. My mouth wouldn't do that.

28:31 I just wouldn't do. That, no, I would just and then we'll see in the beginning, in the beginning we did it all the time. Yeah. You know when you're in your mid 20s, you know, was like I was late 20s then and and you know we're power drink, you know, and then get up the next morning. I mean, I remember many a night, 2:00 AM well, the bars are closed. Time to go home. What time you didn't be in tomorrow? Shit. Three people who work with I I can't skip. I got to, I can't. I got to be in before 8. Got to be in before nine. Got to be in four, eight. Got to be in four, nine. I mean just. I mean the worst were the shows. The shows were the worst because they were 730 open times and we would we would we go to New Orleans and drink till three and then post at 7:30 in the morning. So my hopes and dreams is to do less of that. That sounds great.

29:23 I like that idea doing less of the the general drinking. Yeah, I mean. That that would be great. I think that that would be cool. I think that I might want to try to quit smoking this year. I thought about that as well. It's been about six or seven years. I think that it's time. I think that that is going to go hand in hand with the 2nd Aerobic stage, right and getting back into running and I want to do that again. So I think that would be a a great, a great. So that'd be good thing to do this year that. 'D be good for me too. Yeah. You know, I don't. I don't really need. I mean, I I was trying to cut it down right at the end there, the end of December. I smoke it one cigar a day.

30:06 That's bizarre for you. Yeah. And I was sorry I was up to three and I was thinking like, you know you're. I've cut back drastically in the past three years. Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's crazy. It's been a, it's been a big cutback. And I think that this year could be the final year. Yeah, to to really get rid of it. Well, that's cool. That's very cool. I think that that is something that I'm going to work on, especially if I'm running, because I Remember Me and my friend were running about a year ago. I got back into it like 2 months. We're still doing 2 1/2 miles a day and I wasn't smoking because I was like, it just makes it too hard, so it's too difficult so, so that's how that's really you got to replace it with something you got to.

30:46 That's Harrison, right? You should bring him out. There. Yeah, yeah, that's Harrison. It beat you into the ground. Yeah, he was fast. He's heavily motivated. Yeah, yeah, I. Know he's he's in in. In some ways, he's like Bushka. He's got that. Thing. I mean, Bushka breaks his wrist and, you know, he's talking about all the exercise he has to do and, you know, and physically and all that. And he's got pens in his wrists. I'm like, dude. The wrist is the second worst, I think next to the ankle to rehabilitate. I think he said he had two a rod and a couple pens and. From just he he broke the cyberwalker he was in. Munich. In Munich. In the snow. Gosh, yeah, that's bizarre. Yeah, I said. If you broke your hip, I would have flown over there and shot you.

31:31 Well, so he just, like, probably put his wrist out behind his back when he fell. I think he fell forward. Oh really? This gentleman I see. Remember, I fell like that. I was, I was out smoking a cigar at 11:00 at night, and I was sober, shocker. And I walked around the front of the yard and I was walking up those. I was walking. I walked through the gate, down the steps. When I walked down the steps, I thought I was at the bottom step, 'cause it's the the next to last step is like 36 inches wide, so it feels like you're walking on flat ground. Wow. I was an idiot and I fell, fell forward. And the one thing that I've known I know how you fall. You fall on your shoulder. Always Where? Where did you learn how to fall from? You know what's weird?

32:16 I fell. I felt I I read, I read a Reader's Digest article like 30 years ago when it talked about how you land when you jump out of a plane and how and it's and it's basically the same. Thing Five points of contact. Yeah, right. Exactly so. Fall on your side, you know, ankle, knee, hip, elbow, shoulder and then your arm should be like this. It it in perfect state, but most of the time I fall with my arm crouched in and I land on the fat of that right there. Yeah. Tricep. OK. Yeah. Yeah, and that it bruises and it hurts. And it hurts for a day or two. But I I don't, do I? I never try to catch myself, 'cause I'm too freaking clumsy to know that I can't and I'm not strong enough in the wrist.

33:01 I I know that I I've. Never. Flexibility, yeah. Yeah, I know I've. I've broken one bone in my life and I'd like to keep it to that. That was your ankle, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, well out there too, you have this slits in between the the stones. So if you put your fucking hand in the middle of it like this, like, I can't imagine twisted, yeah, you you messed it. I fell forward and the the front. Of it. Was jagged and it went into my chin and it went in pretty deep, like real deep. And that was really much deeper than I thought it was gonna be. Yeah, it was. It was like somebody stabbed me with a knife because it was. It's pointy like it's. Like a point of. Arrowhead. And maybe I should, she said you should have got stitches and it's like 3 days later it's like, Nah. And then I went and got what I looked at the lady, looked at at the dock in the box and said, Yep, you need penicillin. You, you probably should have got that stitched up. I'm like, yeah, I I probably should have. I love doctors.

33:58 I always captain of the hindsight, I'll say, but we're we're running low on time here. Oh my God, you talk A. Lot. Yeah, I know we talk a lot in this. New year hopes and dreams are focus on the physical. Read more books. What else? What else With the other ones? This consistency. A level of consistency across life would be wonderful. Also we're we're we're really short on time, but I need to find a hobby. Anybody got any suggestions out there? There's a two and a section in the Spotify if you guys want to submit any questions as well or hobbies for. Hey Phil, you should just go to hell.

34:39 I I'd be excited to see that one. I'd like that'd. Be a hell of a hike. Be a long walk. And I'm practicing for it now because I'm going way down mountains and stuff, so that would be good. You're halfway there. You're halfway there. Some people would say that I am already there, but that's that's another story altogether. Yeah, it sure is. But thank you to our listeners. We love you guys and we're going to see you a lot this coming year and it's going to be great. It's going to be a great time. All right. Bye, bye.
