Speaker 2Hi, I'm Jordan and
Speaker 3I'm L
Speaker 2And this is, or learn parkour,
Speaker 3A podcast about ADHD done by two people who have ADHD.
Speaker 2Well back baby.
Speaker 3Yeah. It's been a long while
Speaker 2Been a hot minute. We took a little spring break to go wild and Like go wild. Mostly stay at home. Cuz it's been cold as in Chicago.
Speaker 3Yeah. It was snowing like two days ago
Speaker 2And today it's gonna be like 80. So mm-hmm<affirmative> I don't know what to say about that.
Speaker 3This is a God forsaken city. I swamp mm-hmm
Speaker 2<affirmative>
Speaker 3That's really in a front to the universe. Mm-hmm<affirmative> uh, in all fronts
Speaker 2Fully, fully.
Speaker 3So makes sense. Yep. Uh, yeah, but partially on purpose partially, just cuz we're forgetful. It's been a while. So we're back. And because coming back after a break can be hard. Don't tell me that you got back to school back in the day after like winter break or spring break and you were like, I'm ready to hit the ground running and like, excuse me. No,
Speaker 2Everyone. I'm not peak performance.
Speaker 3Yeah. Everyone needs a minute. Mm-hmm<affirmative> so this week's episode has absolutely really nothing to do with ADHD at all. It's more seasonal topic. It is,
Speaker 2It is a seasonal topic. It is also abated birthday episode for relax.
Speaker 3Yeah. And I have ADHD. So like there you go. Boom. Yeah. Boom. There it is. It's all connected
Speaker 2All coming together. It's all
Speaker 3Coming together. Yeah. So this week we are talking about, you know, I actually, I kind of wanna, I wanna hear Jordan introduce it. Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 2Okay. So this week in light of the anniversary of Lexi's entrance into the universe, which we are all very grateful for as well as the, just past holiday and hall day in the O L P cannon for 20,
Speaker 3For 20
Speaker 2Bla. It ORAS my mom says blaze. It love you, sweetie. Love your
Speaker 3Mom so
Speaker 2Much. I, I love my mom too.<laugh> I also love my dad.
Speaker 3No, I mean,
Speaker 2But in this
Speaker 3Love all our parents in this, in this household.
Speaker 2Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3Um, but your moms, the only one who texts you happy four 20 blaze. It love you. This
Speaker 2Is true. Yeah.
Speaker 3So,
Speaker 2So in this, in this specific case, yeah, my mom's winning. Yeah. But in honor, of all of those things, we decided to open a conversation and have a little chat about out of every like celebrity who has spoken about having ADHD or a D D or any historical figure who people think, you know, retrospectively might have had ADHD who from that pool of people would be your dream blunt.
Speaker 3Rotation's an age old question. Really? You know, truly armchair philosophers have been debating this for centuries.
Speaker 2Truly there have been papers. There have been fights probably.
Speaker 3Yes. Quite
Speaker 2<laugh>
Speaker 3I've been watching a lot of period dramas, everybody Uhhuh buckle up. Yeah. So we're gonna talk about the 88 D dream blunt rotation. Mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 2Yes we are. Um, and to dive right into that topic as, as somebody who personally, uh, I was gonna say, doesn't agree with weed, but like that's phrasing it very wrong. I, I, I don't Disagree with weed. I'm not like a Mary Jane Tito. No, yeah. Not like a Mary Jane TTO over here, but we does not agree with me Uhhuh<affirmative>. So I do not partake, which means that Lex you're going to have to intro to me and the rest of our audience. What makes up a dream blunt rotation? What are, what are the characteristics you look for in somebody to be a part of your DBR?
Speaker 3You know, as spoken, this is a highly UN widely debated topic and truly, truly lots of people have different opinions on, um, what's the best way. I'm so sorry.<laugh>
Speaker 2There's many academic theory
Speaker 3To, So, uh, I have done no research because I'm gonna do this, the good old fashioned American way, by my own opinion and not alone.
Speaker 2<laugh> yeah, No, but there, there is like general criteria as to like what makes a person like good to smoke weed with? Right. Well,
Speaker 3So that's the thing, right? Is I say this basically the reason I say all of that beforehand is because I have decided upon on parameters that I believe mm-hmm<affirmative> to be the dream blunt rotation and what makes up a blunt rotation at all from there, you know, what makes it a decent one? Let alone the dream. Mm,
Speaker 2I see. I see. So there, there are layers to this. There are like
Speaker 3Onion, a blunt rotation. It's just basic, basic bare bones of it all. Yeah. For those of you who are either not of legal age or just, you know, were bullied in school and didn't get invited to these kinds of parties and that's okay.
Speaker 2But um, like me, you're in good company.
Speaker 3I'm here to, well
Speaker 2You're in company anyways. Go.
Speaker 3I think you're in good company.
Speaker 2<laugh> thank
Speaker 3You. Love you, bro. Love you, bro. So, so a blunt rotation is
Speaker 2So like somebody who can rotate hate the blunt through their fingers, like, like drumstick
Speaker 3That is a blunt rotate her.
Speaker 2Oh. Might be
Speaker 3Also the most annoying person in the rotation. Oh, okay. The type of person you would like to avoid.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm<affirmative> where do you think what's gonna happen? The, I mean, okay. Actually, no, I think the only exception to that would be if you're just gonna pull a really weird flex when you're ashing the joint. So mm-hmm,<affirmative> a blunt, a joint, a J a jazz cigarette,
Speaker 2A Adobe,
Speaker 3A Adobe. Yeah. Uh, a Roach. Is that different? A Roach is like, uh, partially smoked or was fully smoked. Oh yeah. Okay. So a joint or J or yeah, so, okay. There's paper inside of that paper that is rolled up into a tube mm-hmm<affirmative> is a lot of the little green dried out leafy bits from weed mm-hmm<affirmative> and you get all that good sticky icky in there, you wrap up the paper and you can make these big thick, thin, small, short, how you can make a blunt really to your liking Uhhuh. And you know, sometimes if you add tobacco mm-hmm<affirmative> in there that's AIFF
Speaker 2Oh,
Speaker 3Which is the way some, some people like to, yeah. I think that's like sort of more British thing. I
Speaker 2Think it, that might be a,
Speaker 3Like split is a British term, but I know the first time I ever partook it was AIFF. Mm. And that man who offered me a hit off of said spiff was decidedly, not British. Mm. Um, okay. I don't remember his name, but I salute you. You were really hot. God
Speaker 2Speed. Spiff, man.
Speaker 3And you started me off on a very strange path in my life.<laugh> The, to mention hot. You were also very hot. If you're out there in the ether. If you think that you're the person who gave me my first lift, maybe,
Speaker 2Maybe,
Speaker 3Maybe, probably not. I don't know.<laugh> some dude at Western Michigan university whose name? I do not recall, but whose eyes are engraved in my memory. Wow.
Speaker 2That's really beautiful. I'm happy for you.
Speaker 3Oh, sorry. What? Thank you. Forgive me if
Speaker 2You're out there.
Speaker 3Oh my God.
Speaker 2The
Speaker 3Weed boy,
Speaker 2Bring me trying to think of a word for weed. That has two syllables.
Speaker 3Gaja
Speaker 2Gaza. There it is. Bring me
Speaker 3No me.
Speaker 2That doesn't rhyme though. Yeah,
Speaker 3But we can do whatever we want because this is the dream blunt rotation episode. Ah,
Speaker 2Because
Speaker 3Who's gonna remember if something doesn't rhyme in like the next three passes. That's
Speaker 2Fair. Okay. So, all right. Ground rules of rotating. The blunt have been established.
Speaker 3Doesn't matter if you rhyme. If someone starts singing. Okay. The Christian shedding with song mid blunt rotation,
Speaker 2Dually noted.
Speaker 3So that one's number one.
Speaker 2Now we need to know who are we rotating? The,
Speaker 3But that's the thing though? A blunt rotation. Yes. It's sounds obvious. But for those of you who don't know, it's when people sit in a circle or, uh, other sort of shape that is
Speaker 2Vaguely
Speaker 3Round. Well, so that is, that is, uh, useful for, I'm trying to think of like a very specific word. That sounds really smart. And it's like,<laugh>, it's the one. So if it's useful for watch, someone's gonna, like, if we, we don't edit this part out, someone's gonna be like, it's, and they're gonna just be like, it's this
Speaker 2Word, please tell us if you know what it is. We're probably not gonna remember. Oh
Speaker 3Yes. Okay. I remember so okay. In, in, in a circle or roundish shape or whatever shape is most conducive to passing the blunt between participants. I
Speaker 2See there's a, an order
Speaker 3To it. Yes. And right. Similar to how the, how the church views, worship and prayer. You know, I believe that there's a it's it's not<laugh>
Speaker 2No, continue, continue. I wanna hear this
Speaker 3<laugh> okay. Sorry. So similar to, I thought of this ahead of time. I'm so sorry. This was meditated. Oh God.
Speaker 2Similar
Speaker 3To how the church may look at two or more people and say, yes, that is where the church is gathered. Mm-hmm<affirmative> two or more believers in mm-hmm<affirmative> the body and the blood of Christ is to two or more. That's a church that's worship. Yeah. I think we could safely say that you can't do a blunt rotation alone. You have to have, have at least two or more people. Okay. In the rotation for it to be a rotation. Okay. That said, have I partake in a solo blonde rotation before? Yes. And I just rotate it back and forth between my hand and my mouth. Ah,
Speaker 2I see. Okay. So
Speaker 3I guess technically, you know, but, but it's an enigma, right, right,
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3We can't know these things fully.<laugh>
Speaker 2Great. Is, is there I do that does beg the question though, is there, to your opinion or, uh, Mary Jane standards, an optimal number of people in a blunt rotation
Speaker 3Now see, that is very subjective because it depends on the, the size of the blunt. So for our basic purposes, we will go with the average amount of grams of weed in a normal joint that is sold at any old dispensary okay. Across the United States. So that is the parameters that we're gonna work with in terms of what are we passing? What are we rotating? Okay. And so a joint is 0.3 gram. Okay. And so between a handful of people, that's really not a lot. Mm-hmm<affirmative>. And so I would argue that the dream blunt rotation is somewhere between three and six. Okay. Because if you're less than three, then you're just two people getting really, really up and having a great time. Probably, hopefully, fully, maybe mm-hmm<affirmative> and you are rotating it back and forth, but that's a lot of weed per person in one sitting. Okay. Three, you're gonna get a little weird probably together,
Speaker 2Like very reasonably baked.
Speaker 3Yes. Okay. Um, so three, I think if you're looking to get rowdier than usual okay. Would be sort of the ideal on that end. Okay. But I don't think any more than six is good. Right. Because six at the point is already probably too many people to actually fairly get enough blunt hits, but six is a great number in terms of aesthetic and uh, you know, golden ratios and whatnot. Right. And also
Speaker 2It's a very, very Renaissance
Speaker 3Sort of exactly. Exactly. You, you get it rotation. Yes. You know how it goes in academia, we see something from several centuries ago, we put
Speaker 2A, a spiral on it and we say. Yeah,
Speaker 3Well, yeah. And you know, and the back in the day they said, this is perfect. And we said, sounds good. And we never changed it. I questioned it. And here it is. Yes,
Speaker 2Indeed. Yes. My old Powell, old
Speaker 3Sport look at that square with some spirals and more squares in it. I like that one. It is really aesthetically pleasing. I'm not here to knock the golden ratio. I feel like there's gonna be some math nerds in the audience who are gonna be like, Hey, that's more emotional support. Golden ratio.
Speaker 2Vena was off the. He knew it was up.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, for sure. But so three to six. Okay. Because I think between there you get the optimal amount of, depending on what you're most in the mood for mm-hmm<affirmative> stoned and company
Speaker 2Uhhuh.
Speaker 3Okay. Okay. And I think that each person in this blunt rotation has a role to play. Yes. Okay. And so I think three to six is sort of in that room. And so I wanna leave it up to you Uhhuh between three and six. What number in there feels best to you? Yeah. You know, mm-hmm,
Speaker 2<affirmative>, that's, I'm just trying to think through like, obviously as somebody who has never been a part of a blunt rotation, I'm guessing here based on movies, most like,
Speaker 3And living
Speaker 2With me and living with you. Yeah. I feel like I would want somebody who can like manage the snack situation. Who's like a good cook or like gonna,
Speaker 3Let me stop you there.
Speaker 2Not cook, but
Speaker 3Not necessarily good cook, but it's functional in a kitchen while stone. Yes. Yes. Yes. At the very least, if it's just a open the takeout boxes for everyone else, mm-hmm,<affirmative> just someone who is functional enough to prepare and bring food to the rest of us. Yeah. That sounds reasonable. Yes. And I also have that person on my list. Yeah.
Speaker 2Mm-hmm<affirmative> somebody, somebody who can be in charge of the food situation, I feel like you need sort of like one outgoing, bold person and one outgoing, like really mild chill person. Mm-hmm<affirmative> to like keep the energy up, but balance.
Speaker 3Yep. Mm-hmm<affirmative> the instigator mm-hmm<affirmative> and the friend mm-hmm<affirmative> mm-hmm
Speaker 2<affirmative> mm-hmm<affirmative> and then probably one person who's like really good at rolling a joint.
Speaker 3Yeah. The actual weed man. The
Speaker 2Actual weed man.
Speaker 3Doesn't actually have to be a man, but the we man. Yeah. Yeah's the title
Speaker 2Like the same man or the moth man don't
Speaker 3Have no weed, man. Weed. Me, your man.<laugh>
Speaker 4<laugh>
Speaker 2Bring me the Dan
Speaker 3Push the I've ever seen anyways.
Speaker 2Am I missing anyone? Well, okay.
Speaker 3So we've got snacks, we've got an instigator. We've got the actual person who brings in usually the same person rolls the weed. You've got the, the friend mm-hmm<affirmative> the friendly mm-hmm<affirmative> uh, or as I, you know, not to put a gender role on it, but the mom sort of friend, right?
Speaker 2The, the parental unit mm-hmm
Speaker 3<affirmative> who is also very outgoing and friendly, but chill and protective and safe.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Safe. Friendly. Yeah. So that's what, four, four,
Speaker 2Maybe one more person who is mostly quiet, but then just pops in, say off the things. I every so often.
Speaker 3Yeah. So the fifth person is I would agree. Not integral to the experience, but always fun to have like the weed man's friend. Yeah. Or,
Speaker 2Or it really rounds things out. Like they're the person who's gonna SU suggest that you try something from the capable food person that you would never dream of.
Speaker 3Yes, exactly. And a sixth op okay. Is the newbie.
Speaker 2Okay. I'm assuming that's gonna be me and my blunt rotation. Yeah.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm<affirmative> yeah. And I mean, I was sort of imagining if we go with six at the top number mm-hmm<affirmative> you automatically fill the newbie spot fair and I automatically fill the instigator spot.
Speaker 2Yes. Okay.
Speaker 3So that leaves us four spots to include people from both our lists.
Speaker 2So we need the food person, the weed man, the weed man's friend and the mom friend.
Speaker 3Yeah. And those are loose, right? Yes. I think those are sort of loose though. We say weed man or the mom friend. Mm-hmm<affirmative> it can be any person mm-hmm<affirmative>, you know, mm-hmm<affirmative> as long as it fits the vibe mm-hmm<affirmative>. And so by the end of this episode, we shall create the ideal ADHD dream team, blunt rotation.
Speaker 2Amen.
Speaker 3Do you have any questions thus far based on the parameters that we've set out? Sure. In the audience, you may have questions, but I'm gonna ask you to hold them for after the episode, because we can't talk back to you.<laugh> so sorry. So that inconvenience of the medium, as y'all understand you, you
Speaker 2Know how this goes, we say our Twitter at the end of it, you know where to find this? Hopefully not to literally, but
Speaker 3See what you do.
Speaker 2Yeah. Anyway,
Speaker 3Questions,
Speaker 2None so far continue.
Speaker 3Amazing. Okay. Well, shall we get to it?
Speaker 2Let's let's light it up.
Speaker 3Okay. I will be very honest with both of you and the audience. I started writing down my dream ADHD blunt rotation list. Mm-hmm<affirmative> I got about three people in mm-hmm<affirmative> and then realized that
Speaker 2You were too high
Speaker 3To finish it, maybe so<laugh> and then I forgot about it. Uhhuh<affirmative>. So
Speaker 2That's why we're here to Tom it out together, my friend.
Speaker 3So I feel like I should just tell you what my list is really quick just to bang out those.
Speaker 2Yeah. Throw it at me those
Speaker 3Three or four that I got down. Throw it at me. Um, and, and these aren't uh<laugh> I, I think my brain, I was also including fictional characters.
Speaker 2Ah, okay.
Speaker 3Okay. Just because I, yeah.
Speaker 2Why the hell
Speaker 3Not? Yeah. And I also watched something recently that I was like, well, I, yep. We've talked about this character before on our podcast and I get this mm-hmm<affirmative> um, so the first one on my list, my dad
Speaker 4<laugh>,
Speaker 2That was not at all what I expected. And I am more delighted that I can say, please elaborate on why your dad and what his role in the DVR is. Mm-hmm
Speaker 3<affirmative> so I love that you're calling it a DVR. It's very fun. Very white of us.
Speaker 4<laugh>
Speaker 2I'm gonna stop calling it DVR
Speaker 3Then. No, I just mean like in the, like just giving it a acronym, like in the DBR, you know<laugh> so my dad mm-hmm<affirmative> Bob mm-hmm
Speaker 2<affirmative>
Speaker 3Yes. My dad's name is Bob Flo bits. Mm-hmm<affirmative> he's been there since I was born mm-hmm<affirmative> he's my dad mm-hmm<affirmative> uh<laugh>. And my dad, to my knowledge, and from what he has expressed to me has never partake in weed, Excel up for on accident in college. When one of his college roommates had made some brownies. Ah, and there it is. Darrell, Bob didn't know mm-hmm<affirmative> that there were some things in the brownies that maybe wouldn't be super conducive to his studies at college mm-hmm<affirmative> and apparently he, he had to miss classes for like a couple days. Like he couple days he ate several brownies. Oh yeah. So that's the only time. And so for me, partially, it's almost like a, I wanna redeem this little plant for my father. And also my dad just says the craziest off the wall Uhhuh. So my dad would absolutely be the weed man's friend. Man's
Speaker 2Friend, Bob. Okay.
Speaker 3And that's not a stone, right? This is just my list. This is just my, my brainstorming list. That is only three people long. Great.
Speaker 2Well, there's only four spots to fill at this point.
Speaker 3So yeah, but you have a, a list too, that we need to look at and take seriously mm-hmm<affirmative> cause I, I would like to hear that because the second one on my list, your dad<laugh> Your dad's the weed guy.
Speaker 2Oh yeah. The guy. No, no, no. Dad,
Speaker 3Your dad who asked us, you had a bong in the house and looked so disappointed when you said no. Oh my gosh. Oh, I forgot your parents. Listen to this podcast.
Speaker 4<laugh>
Speaker 3I'm so sorry, Wes. I just think you'd be really funny and fun to smoke weed. This maybe we could listen to some mobi
Speaker 2<laugh> Oh no. I feel like, I feel like it would end up being like
Speaker 3The cure. That's what people like them listen to when they got high. Right? Not
Speaker 2Quite the cure. I feel like that's a little
Speaker 3Cracker
Speaker 2Maybe.
Speaker 3Yeah. Cuz that song low that everyone's like, do you know which song I'm
Speaker 2Talking about? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. There we go. Soundtrack sorted. I feel like that's also a very important part of yeah. Dream blunt, rotation functionality. Yeah. Someone on tune
Speaker 3Music. That's
Speaker 2True. We need a knee. We need a knee to bang out the tunes.
Speaker 3Maybe seven. It is a really divine number.
Speaker 2It is prime. Feel like if it's a good enough group, you can have two blunts.
Speaker 3Yeah. No, in this instance let's bump it up to seven because this is the dream. Yeah. And we need a DJ. Yeah. And we will get to that. Yep. Because your dad is definitely the weed man. Again, we don't have to, these are not set in stone.
Speaker 2I'm loving it though.
Speaker 3Uh, so those were the first two that came to mind. Yeah. I wrote those two down Uhhuh. Third one and Shirley of green cables.<laugh>
Speaker 2And what, What role does Anne of green Gables fill in your dream? Blunt rotation.
Speaker 3Food.
Speaker 2Okay. All right.
Speaker 3She like canonically gets really good at baking. Okay. Because of a character that teaches her, how to bake and make food and stuff. I would have Anna Green Gables. And also, because I was trying to think of people who have ADHD canonically she makes a lot of food. She has ADHD. Whether they say it or not, I don't care what you think you're wrong. She has ADHD. Yeah. So you know, and when I think about title alone, mm-hmm
Speaker 2<affirmative>
Speaker 3Green Gables.
Speaker 2Oh, so green about it. Huh? Mm-hmm
Speaker 3<affirmative> you know, I always thought that Marilla and Matthew, the brother and sister who adopted her are way too chilled. Mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 2<affirmative> they're farmers, right?
Speaker 3Oh they're they're farmers. They got lots of land mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 2Mm-hmm<affirmative> mm-hmm<affirmative> mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 3Yep. Anyways. So I think Anne would be in there for me. Okay. She also is so smart and spews a bunch of that like no one else would even have to worry about like talking nice, but it could get annoying. So she's on the fence for
Speaker 2Me. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. That that's fair. That's fair. She's a possible food person.
Speaker 3That's kind of my that's as far as I got, so hit me with yours.
Speaker 2No, that's fair. Um, so let's see. We still need
Speaker 3Well, but I wanna hear cuz like these aren't set in stone. Remember? So like I don't need to hear all of yours, but
Speaker 2Let me take a look at my list.
Speaker 3I guess it is probably safe to say that our dads stay in. Yeah. So yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah. So I feel like off the bat, Channing Tatum is my weed man. Yeah. Channing.
Speaker 3Tatum's the mom
Speaker 2Friend. Channing. Tatum's the mom friend. Okay. Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 3Friendly. Outgoing. Okay. But we'll take care of you. We'll make you feel safe. Okay. You're telling me you're gonna look at that jaw line and be like I'm scared. No,
Speaker 2No that's fair. It's
Speaker 3A protective jaw line.
Speaker 2That's fair. That is fair.
Speaker 3And also I just can't let go of the fact that your dad's the weed man.
Speaker 2No, that's that's fair food person. Hmm. Jamie Oliver feels like too easy of an answer. So I'm not gonna say that. Okay. I'm gonna say, oh gosh. Can
Speaker 3I just, can I hear your list actually? Let's just hear the list.
Speaker 2Yeah. Okay. Simone by.
Speaker 3Oh,
Speaker 2Okay. Solange mm-hmm<affirmative> Ty Pennington. Cool. Will I am JT Justin Timberlake. Mm-hmm<affirmative> obviously we got Channing Tatum. Emma Watson.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2This one was a surprise to me Zoe day. Chanel.
Speaker 3She's so quirky though.
Speaker 2I know. I know. Uhhuh.
Speaker 3Sorry. No hate to Zoe day Chanel.
Speaker 2Yeah. No, but here's the thing I'm I'm very curious about the difference between that persona and like Zoe Baja, blasted day Chanel, you know, that's
Speaker 3Fair. You know, see here's the thing, everyone you just listed off. I'm happy. Yeah. I'm content with that blunt rotation. But that's a lot of people and we would have to have several blunts.
Speaker 2Oh yeah. No, this isn't everyone that I wanna include. These were all the
Speaker 3Options. No, that's what I'm saying. It's like, but, but I'm saying my problem is that I like a lot of them. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like I would happily smoke with any of them. I'm gonna, you know, who else has ADHD? Who? Dylan Playfair guy. Oh God, the guy who plays Riley in letter Getty.
Speaker 2He kinda has to be included. I think he, but here's the thing I'm gonna throw two, two more at you that are gonna complicate this. Okay. One Paris Hilton.
Speaker 3Oh no.
Speaker 2Okay. Who I feel like would be a classic weed man's friend. Yes. Because she'd just go off about like vintage radios.
Speaker 3She would,
Speaker 2And like dogs,
Speaker 3Auras. Someone would have a coughing fit just quietly in the corner. That's hot.<laugh>
Speaker 2See. See, and I'm so sorry for what I'm about to say to you, Victoria. PIRE.
Speaker 3Victoria PIRE has ADHD.
Speaker 2Yeah. She's talked about having a D D
Speaker 3Oh my God.
Speaker 2I know.
Speaker 3Oh no. What do we do?
Speaker 2I feel, I feel like my three off of that list are Channing Tatum, Victoria Padre and Paris Hilton.
Speaker 3Okay. But like the, the desire to also smoke weed with Simone Biles.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3And will I am like, I'm like, will I am, do you wanna come do the music? Could, will I and be our music, man? I
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Should pokey show poopy show poopy.<laugh> here's
Speaker 2The thing
Speaker 3I said the
Speaker 2Music man. Here's no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm gonna let you have this because can you think of anything funnier than watching? Will I am seeing the music man, while you are absolutely space
Speaker 3Roasted. Oh my God. That would literally be the funniest fun. Will I am is there he's in I've I've decided I'm sorry. I'm over. No that's well also who else would be the, the DJ
Speaker 2Road? No, that's fair. That's fair. To be fair. Scary spice is also on the list. So I know.
Speaker 3Yeah, but I, I like will I am as a
Speaker 2Yeah. That's fair is
Speaker 3A, is a person who can give us the good music. Mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3All right. But that means we have to choose between my dad and Paris Hilton. Oh
Speaker 2God.
Speaker 3I know. What else could my dad do? Could my dad do anything else? Do you think? Okay. Here's something I will propose to you. Mm-hmm<affirmative> if we just decide to scrap the original parameters. Okay. For fun, because this is the dream and we include several different blunts. Okay. So that everyone gets plenty of the good stuff. Yeah. Could we potentially, I think have multiple of the weed man's friend archetype, the person who was there with a friend and will say some weird banana outta nowhere. And I would put to you that there are two at this rotation and they are my father, Bob mm-hmm<affirmative> and Paris Hilton hotel. Aris.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Does that sound good? Yeah. Just cuz how am I supposed to choose?
Speaker 2No, that's fair. I
Speaker 3Feel you tell me, how am I supposed to choose between my dad and Paris Hilton?
Speaker 2We'll put up a Twitter poll.<laugh> in most cases I would be hesitant to have to weed man's friends cuz that can get intense. But
Speaker 3That's what I'm saying is like,
Speaker 2But I think they'd play off of each other very well in this
Speaker 3Case. And, and I think it doesn't necessarily need to be the weed man's friends. Mm-hmm<affirmative> right. It, it could just be like, like I'm the instigator, but I brought my dad along. Yeah. I do love the idea of Paris Hilton being the weed man's friend and your dad being the weed man. And so your dad brought that brought Hilton. That's very good.
Speaker 2I love that for everyone involved myself, especially.
Speaker 3Yeah. That's amazing.
Speaker 2Okay. So will I am is our Neil banging out the tunes? Mm-hmm<affirmative> Channing. Tatum's the mom friend. Mm-hmm<affirmative> okay.
Speaker 3You're the newbie. Yeah. I'm the instigator. Mm-hmm<affirmative> so we just need the food person. I have a theory on this one. Tell me unless you've got a mm-hmm
Speaker 2<affirmative> no lay on, on me.
Speaker 3So this is a reach, but I want her to be there. Yeah. Victoria Padre, as
Speaker 2The food person,
Speaker 3As the food person,
Speaker 2I'm sure she had to learn how to do. She had to learn how to do of, of the season two.
Speaker 3She had to have learned so much stuff for and season three. Yeah. Cause she cooks in season three too. Yeah. Yeah. It's like less cuz they have like a baby and stuff. Yeah. I'm gonna say that. She's the food person and Victoria Padre, if you, for some reason, end up hearing this and you can't cook. I'm sorry that we've put you in this position. Can you just bring us some snacks?
Speaker 2Yeah. You don't have to cook. You just have to be functional enough to make food happen. Yeah. Um, whether that's making it, whether that's assembling ingredients
Speaker 3And then just like politely ignore the way I am staring at you. Mm-hmm<affirmative> while stoned, outta my mind.
Speaker 2It's very respectful. I promise
Speaker 3It's really it's full of respect and adoration. I
Speaker 2Promise. Yeah. Yep.<laugh> or if it's or if it's just to call the delivery person and go down to get the food, we will all owe you our lives for that or less. You can have, you can have it. You whatever you want ma'am anything. Okay. Okay.
Speaker 3So is that
Speaker 2Where Simone Biles,
Speaker 3Do you think she'd be in the mom friend category or the instigator? That's a
Speaker 2Tough question.
Speaker 3I hesitate, but I feel like it's me Channing or Simone. I don't like that. I don't like choosing between the three of us.
Speaker 2I don't think you have to choose. I think it's a question of if we're just including everyone. Yes. Who is going to be like the best combo of like you and Simone Biles as instigators or Simone Biles and Channing Tatum as the mom friends. And I'm saying it out loud and I'm fighting with the second one.
Speaker 3Same. Although I would absolutely love to get up to some mischief with Simone.
Speaker 2I mean you still get up to mischief with Simone Biles, but safely but safely. Yes mm-hmm yep, yep. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3All right. So let's list that off then. Let me hear it.
Speaker 2So we have in our or park core dream ADHD, blunt rotation. Mm-hmm<affirmative> as the mom, friends, Channing Tatum and Simone Biles.
Speaker 3Amazing
Speaker 2As the food person, either Anne of green Gables or Victoria Padre.
Speaker 3Oh, scratch am sorry. You're fictional. It's Victoria Padre. It's just it's
Speaker 2It's always Victoria
Speaker 3Padre.
Speaker 2Mm-hmm<affirmative> in this house. Yep. Weedman. My father mm-hmm<affirmative> wait a second. I realized a problem. What? We can't invite my dad and not my
Speaker 3Mom. Yeah. Same with my mom. But like that's the
Speaker 2Thing. Does your mom want to come though?
Speaker 3Here's the thing. If we were having a big party like that, I think she would have to. Right. If my dad was actually to the point where he was gonna smoke a blunt, my mom would also have to be. Mm. You know
Speaker 2What I mean?
Speaker 3I see. Cause neither of them actually want to at this point in their lives. Okay. So
Speaker 2See, the thing is, is, like we said, at the top of this episode, my mom is the one who texts me and says happy four 20 blaze. It loves my girl. Mm-hmm<affirmative> so
Speaker 3Your mom and dad are the weed man. My
Speaker 2Parents are the,
Speaker 3Your parents are the weed man.
Speaker 2Great, great. Uh, my mother and father as the weed man. Mm-hmm<affirmative>
Speaker 3Friends of the show. Yes. Friends of the show. Former guests.
Speaker 2Yes. Yes. Uh, go check out that episode and then think about smoking weed with both of them.
Speaker 3I can't wait for all day<laugh> personally.
Speaker 2Honestly. Yeah, no that's fair. Okay. But as the wheat man's friend, we have both your father, Bob mm-hmm<affirmative> and Paris Hilton.
Speaker 3That seems correct.
Speaker 2It does. Mm-hmm<affirmative> I'm the newbie match Uhhuh. You're the instigator match. And then the DJ is will I am wait
Speaker 3Where? Wait a minute. Hmm. Dylan play fair.
Speaker 2Oh.
Speaker 3Where does he go? Go. I
Speaker 2Feel like, hear me out. This might be a little bit out of the bounds of a blunt rotation, but it it's an element of the experience I'm
Speaker 3Listening.
Speaker 2He just shows up the late of the night and nobody knows who he knows.
Speaker 3You're right. I cannot believe I've forgotten such a crucial. Sorry. I cannot believe that I've forgotten such a crucial part of my research. The thing
Speaker 2Of course
Speaker 3Clever
Speaker 2Will, will I receive a dedication in your manuscript?
Speaker 3Oh, not just the manuscript, but the finished product. Oh
Speaker 2Good
Speaker 3Sir. Good. So you flat on me so anyways, not to get too emotional
Speaker 2And last, but certainly not least the rando Dylan Playfair yes.
Speaker 3Oh, so good. My evidence for him is that my cousin once met him and some of the other people of the cast of letter Kenny and saw them smoke weed.<laugh> so come on in bud. And I know you have ADHD, he's talked about it. Yeah.
Speaker 2And, and weed's super legal in Michigan, so
Speaker 3Yeah, it's fine. Yeah. Yeah. It's fine. Great.
Speaker 2Cool. I think we've come up with a very good list.
Speaker 3I think we have too. I'm kind of blown away.
Speaker 2Well done us
Speaker 3Well done us,
Speaker 2Man. Oh,
Speaker 3Good
Speaker 2Job. If I ever Smoked weed or knew a bunch of celebrities sounds like a dream. This
Speaker 3Is all around 10 outta 10. Mm-hmm<affirmative> happy. Happy to be here.<laugh> welcome. One at all. Great, cool
Speaker 2Team.
Speaker 3Happy belated. Four 20. Shall we do some, some quick DTS?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Sweet.
Speaker 2Just in case for some absolutely bizarre reason. This is the first episode that you're tuning into. Woo. And you've stayed this long. Uh<laugh> the dopamine trampoline is a segment that we do at the end of each show where we just talk about something that is bringing us dopamine mm-hmm<affirmative>, it's making us happy. Something that we've enjoyed or spent a lot of time on recently, or it could be a throwback, like something that we hyper fixated on as a kid. Uh, something that's just getting us through the day, uh, or what have you. So let's bounce on over L what's your DT this week. So,
Speaker 3Uh, I'm gonna hop on up there onto the trampoline and uh, tell y'all a little bit about something that I, I kind of wanted to just, okay. Yeah, no, it. I just was watching this recently and I was like, yeah, I'll talk about that. Great. Uh, if you know me, you know that I, I love, love, love some good reality television for the good reasons, the bad reasons I will watch all of it. Whether it's a, whether you wanna refer to it as a guilty pleasure or not, I don't feel very guilty about it. But, uh, I feel like that's sort of the general to term that I would've put it under mm-hmm<affirmative> just because I know that the people in these TV shows are not doing things that normal people should do to each other a lot of the time. And it's not a good example to live by, but God it's so funny. Oh my, like I can't like, I, I just love a good trashy reality TV show. Mm-hmm<affirmative> mm-hmm<affirmative>. And so, uh, this is probably mean, and if any of them ever found out, I would be very scared of them, but the cast members of selling sunset. I mean, if you heard me say that your show's trashy and that you're trashy that's, please don't hurt me.<laugh> please. But selling sunset is a, a popular show on Netflix. So I'm sure a fair amount of you have seen it before mm-hmm<affirmative> or at least heard of it. Mm-hmm<affirmative> it is a reality television show featuring the Oppenheim group, which is a real estate agency in Los Angeles, California mm-hmm<affirmative> um, and it's a really high end Realty company, brokerage firm, whatever the hell. So it's not just about out all of these like exorbitantly expensive homes mm-hmm<affirmative> and like mansions in the Hills, you know, like there's all this stuff going on there, which is very interesting, but also all of the real estate agents at the Oppenheim group are young, wealthy, hot, uh, where like five inch heels everywhere and like sell these multimillion dollar homes, like every day mm-hmm<affirmative>. Um, and they have quite a bit of drama amongst one another.
Speaker 2Oh, you don't say mm-hmm
Speaker 3<affirmative> and there's five seasons started in 2019. Mm-hmm<affirmative> uh, and it's dropped the latest season pretty recently and there's a reunion dropping in may. Oh, nice. I'm excited to watch. Um, and I just caught up with the most recent season that dropped on Netflix. And let me tell you, this show is just worth nothing. Like there's nothing in here that is of any value to me or anybody else really? That mm-hmm<affirmative> I can see mm-hmm<affirmative> I say that lovingly with, with the understanding of the value is joy mm-hmm<affirmative> and laughter mm-hmm<affirmative> and maybe some like cathartic rage at how rich people behave sometimes. Yeah. Um, but also it's just funny. It's like very interesting to watch these people just go through their lives and I don't know something about it just really hits and it really gets me. I mean, when I was younger, I used to watch, um, like Jersey shore and the real world and like the bachelor. I mean, I still watch some of those that are still on. Yep. Um, you know, love survivor, like reality, reality TV. For me, it really gets it. But sunset has just been scratching an itch for me lately. It's just stupid meme, rich people. Oh wow. Selling big fancy things while the rest of us are just quietly rotting. Mm. You know, it's like some, sometimes I'm like, this is just criminal. Yeah. Like this is really criminal, but I can't stop watching.
Speaker 2Is it, is it this same realtors every season? Or is it like a different group of people?
Speaker 3It's the same ones. I mean, new people come in and get added to the firm and stuff.
Speaker 2Sure, sure.
Speaker 3But it's, that's pretty much it that's, there's some dogs which
Speaker 2Are cute. Nice. Okay. Okay. Love that.
Speaker 3Yeah. Selling sunset. What a, what a show
Speaker 2Do you any like favorite realtors?
Speaker 3I will say between Christine and Elle. I definitely in real life would probably be more on the side of Elle mm-hmm<affirmative> but as a viewer, I'm obsessed with Christine.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3Christine Quinn is like the villain. She's the primary antagonist the entire time. Basically.
Speaker 2Christine Quinn sounds like a villain name.
Speaker 3Yeah. Um, and she is the one who, if any of y'all saw<laugh>, uh, screenshots from a TV show or gifts from a TV show where a very beautiful tall blonde pregnant woman had a bag. But instead of a bag I get was just like one of those chains with a chair on it. Oh. And then like, yeah, that's her.
Speaker 2Okay. I feel like I understand a lot more now.
Speaker 3Yeah. So I love this show and I, I think I would probably poop my pants if I met Christine Quinn in real life. Cuz like, if you ever listen to this podcast, like years so intimidating and I know, you know that, um, but also like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 2Follow, follow up question. Hmm. Did the chair like have pockets?
Speaker 3No.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3It's just for fashion. It doesn't hold anything.
Speaker 2Did
Speaker 3She sit on it? No. It's like a little chair purse. So it's like a purse chair.
Speaker 2Okay. So it is not the size of a chair. It is the size of a purse. It's the size of a purse, like a purse. You can't
Speaker 3Put just a little
Speaker 2Like anything in it.
Speaker 3Yeah. It's just like a like diamond en crusted folding chair on a chain that she's wearing like a purse and the person that she's mat is like, what's that forward? She's like it's fashion. It doesn't hold anything.<laugh> somehow you can see why I am obsessed with her. But also she's really mean and has done some really awful things if the editing is to be believed. So again, I would be very scared to meet her in person also like the audacity to just walk around and behave the way she does. I can't help, but admire it, you know, Uhhuh. Do you know what I mean? Does that make sense? Like at some point you kind of just look at people and you're like, you're a cartoon villain and I just have to respect the fact that you've committed that hard.
Speaker 2Yeah. That's
Speaker 3Fair. Yeah. It's fun to watch. Yeah. Selling sunset, Netflix. Five seasons
Speaker 2Astounding.
Speaker 3What's yours.
Speaker 2All right. I'm gonna throw it in reverse here for a second and just go the complete opposite way. My dopamine trampoline this week are Rainier cherries.
Speaker 3Yeah. Which
Speaker 2Are my favorite variety of Cher.<laugh> yeah. They're also at this point, grown in Oregon and California while they do to some degree ship them out. But they're much more common on the west coast than they are the rest of the United States, because they're harder to ship. They're much more delicate than like dark sweet cherries of other varieties. But if you've never had a Rainier cherry, they're a really, really beautiful, like light yellow color with sort of a pink, red blush on it. So they're not that dark red of, you know, when you think of cherries, they're originally a cross between the Bing and the van cherry. And they were developed at Washington state university in 1952. They're very tasty. The flavor is sweeter than a standard sweet. The acidity is lower and the flesh is like a little bit more tender. So they, you know, they taste more sweet cuz they don't have the acidity to balance, but they still have enough of it that they're like, they're perfect. They're pretty much just eating cherries. They don't need sugar. They don't need to be in a pie crust. They don't need anything like that. Just they're they are true. Like the perfect eating cherry, especially in like where I grew up. Mm-hmm<affirmative> they tend to be ready to harvest. Like mid-June I wanna say, I think this season, depending on where you are on the west coast, like in California, you can start getting them late may.
Speaker 3Yeah. I mean cherries are famously fickle trees.
Speaker 2Yes. Yeah. And with these ones too apparent about a third of the crop every year is just eaten by birds.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm<affirmative> too much rain, too much sun birds, not putting enough specific chemicals on putting too many mm-hmm<affirmative> like cherries are truly so fickle. Yep. That's why they cost so much.
Speaker 2Yep. If they have rain sitting on them for too, too long at the wrong time they explode mm-hmm<affirmative> um, so that's another fun fact. If you've ever like driven past a cherry orchard and they have those big fans mm-hmm<affirmative> has to blow the rain off of them. So they don't explode.
Speaker 3Yeah. Yeah. They split. Yeah. It's probably a more,
Speaker 2Probably more accurate. Yeah. But much less fun,
Speaker 3Much less fun. I feel like I'm adding a lot to your DT right now. No, I do.
Speaker 2I'm the one who has like cherry trees.
Speaker 3Well, I don't have them, but my family has a farm and like has some cherry trees had a, used to have a lot more and like we have a cherry pad and I grew up working there on the summer. Like<affirmative> working on the cherry pad during the summer strain cherry harvest mm-hmm<affirmative> but we have like dark cherries, sweet cherries like that. So, I mean, I also think that they're the perfect eating Cher, but I also am like not picky. I will eat right near cherries too. And cherries
Speaker 2Just cherries are across board. Mm-hmm<affirmative> amazing. Mm-hmm<affirmative> yeah. Cher seasons coming up and like less than a month, a month,
Speaker 3I would guess. Given how cold it's been across the board a little bit longer, probably a little bit longer. We'll see. I mean, I know like Michigan used to be huge for cherries mm-hmm<affirmative> like there's a cherry festival up in traverse city, Michigan mm-hmm<affirmative> but like you can't really grow cherry trees up there anymore because the climate's become too unfriendly to really get an actual profitable crop, I guess. Yeah. Would be the way to put it. So, but that's it if you're like, why is L so knowledgeable about agriculture? That's why, um,
Speaker 2Your family like kind of has a farm or whatever.
Speaker 3Yeah. I grew up, you know, free range, farm bread, corned mm-hmm<affirmative> et cetera. Mm-hmm<affirmative> so keep telling about these cherries or was that kind of it,
Speaker 2I mean, that's mostly it. I just, I love eating them and they always remind me of, because you know, the season in Washington at least is early to mid June, usually mm-hmm<affirmative> that was always like Memorial day into the end of the school year and their
Speaker 3Birthday day, season
Speaker 2A birthday season. Not quite that late, but it was that very like beginning of summer. Yes. And they, they grow so much around my area that people just sell them, like on the side of the road mm-hmm<affirmative> for like five bucks a bag and some places you can even go and they will let you pick your own mm-hmm<affirmative> that's always delicious. Just like nothing beats, still sun warm, fresh Rainier cherries. Mm-hmm<affirmative> they just taste like summer to me. And I was thinking about'em because it's starting to feel like spring here in Chicago.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm<affirmative> you picked up some cherry tomatoes for me at the store
Speaker 2Today. I did. Thank you. You're so welcome. You're sure
Speaker 3That, um, didn't have anything to do with it, but I,
Speaker 2It didn't I'm sorry. No cherry cherry. It's
Speaker 3The words right there. Uhhuh. My D and D character's name is cherry.
Speaker 2That's true. I got that pineapple upside down cake ice cream that has cherries in it. Yes.
Speaker 3We are just cherries all the way down.
Speaker 2We are. There we go. Yeah. Rainier cherries. If you ever on the west coast or they make it out, they don't travel super well, which is why they're not as common around the rest of the states. But yeah, if you're ever like in the Yakima valley or something, get some, you won't regret it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm<affirmative> well, thanks. Of
Speaker 2Course.
Speaker 3Y eah. Cherries.
