Chris:

Welcome back to the Whiskey and Wisdom Podcast.

2

:

We are in a brand new location,

but the same great co-host.

3

:

I'm Chris Kellum.

4

:

I'm with Tyler y'all.

5

:

And our special guest is a

returning and amazing woman,

6

:

Amanda: Amanda Swiss.

7

:

All: Welcome back.

8

:

Amanda: Thank you.

9

:

Thanks for having me.

10

:

Tyler: Absolutely.

11

:

New place

12

:

Amanda: is beautiful.

13

:

Yeah.

14

:

Tyler: Thank you.

15

:

We decided to switch up a little bit.

16

:

I personally have a new office,

beacon Wealth Management of Nest

17

:

Capital, and we had this extra space.

18

:

It reminded me a lot of the OG space

that we had as this, our own studio.

19

:

Mm-hmm.

20

:

With the green and everything, except we

have a lot more natural light in here.

21

:

So we are calling this

Whiskey and Wisdom 3.0.

22

:

Now, this is about the

third iteration of it.

23

:

We're bringing back some of your.

24

:

Favorite parts of whiskey and wisdom.

25

:

Chris is gonna kick it off with

some tasting notes about the whiskey

26

:

that we're gonna be drinking today.

27

:

And most importantly, we're bringing

back a lot of returning guests right now

28

:

too, that either Chris and I had a lot

of fun with or that you guys enjoyed.

29

:

Or in Amanda's case, both.

30

:

Yes.

31

:

So thank you so much for coming back on.

32

:

Yes, definitely.

33

:

And without further ado,

34

:

All: Chris, kick it off with the whiskey.

35

:

So today we got one of my favorites.

36

:

You hear me talk about

it, regular occasions.

37

:

The Penelope Rio one of the reason

why I love it is just 'cause

38

:

it's a very seasonal flavor.

39

:

If you know anything about Penelope,

they drop different flavors

40

:

or different resting setups.

41

:

Throughout the year.

42

:

So the Rio is more of a springtime.

43

:

And then they have like a summer edition.

44

:

What is the summer one?

45

:

Do you know?

46

:

I've seen it, but I, I

couldn't tell you what it was.

47

:

I haven't tried it yet.

48

:

I have

49

:

Amanda: no idea.

50

:

But

51

:

All: then they do like, don't worry, I

think it's like cruising or something.

52

:

Like it has a different barrel.

53

:

Yeah.

54

:

Or different colorway.

55

:

And then they do like the wintertime,

they do like a toasted and whatnot.

56

:

But reason I like the Rio is 'cause it

is very, you know, I'm a seasonal person.

57

:

See, I love this one so much.

58

:

Super clean, very bright.

59

:

And typically when you get a

whiskey, you want to mix it.

60

:

For us weaklings, we like to

mix it with stuff, but this is

61

:

actually a good sipping whiskey.

62

:

If you're just sitting out springtime,

fire wintertime when it's that or that

63

:

fall series when it's kind of warm, but

not too warm, I think you'd like it.

64

:

But tasting notes, the aroma's gonna

be sweet, honey, with a little bit of

65

:

cinnamon roll, you know, my favorite type

of pastry the body notes gingerbread.

66

:

Honey nectar and sweet baking spices.

67

:

You'll notice some of the finishes.

68

:

It is gonna have like some subtle

notes of sweet honey and spice, so

69

:

that's why it'll be a little smoother.

70

:

This is definitely.

71

:

Unlike the first whiskey we tried

with Amanda, this is not a shooting

72

:

whiskey, not taking as a shot this time.

73

:

Tyler: I would cry if you shot this one.

74

:

This one's so good on

the front end for me.

75

:

I get a lot of cinnamon on it.

76

:

So a lot of that like cinnamon roll

flavor and then on the back end

77

:

it's really smooth with the honey.

78

:

All: Yes.

79

:

Tyler: So yeah, it's, it's

one of my favorite ones.

80

:

All: And drop in a fun fact.

81

:

So we're talking about

things that are resting.

82

:

So this bourbon is finished

first in honey barrels.

83

:

And then with an, it says the new ANA

barrels from Brazil, and it is nons chill

84

:

filtered for, for those mash be people.

85

:

I do.

86

:

Got it for you.

87

:

Sweet.

88

:

74% corn, 16 WA wheat, 7% rye,

and then 3% mar malted barley.

89

:

Tyler: Nice.

90

:

So I did taste, taste, a little

bit of spice in there, but I wasn't

91

:

sure if it was from like the rye or

if it was just from the cinnamon.

92

:

Yeah.

93

:

So

94

:

All: Chest it.

95

:

Cheers, slu.

96

:

Thank you.

97

:

Mmm.

98

:

So good.

99

:

Amanda: That's good.

100

:

All: Yeah.

101

:

You're just like, like, ah, whatever.

102

:

Tyler: I'd rather shoot it.

103

:

Amanda: It is better than the last one.

104

:

Yes.

105

:

Yeah.

106

:

That one was spicy.

107

:

All: Yeah.

108

:

Well, mm-hmm.

109

:

And you're right, it does

smell like cinnamon roll.

110

:

Mm-hmm.

111

:

Yeah.

112

:

For, I'm gonna start it, start

this episode off of the hot topic.

113

:

Do you think that salmon rolls

and honey buns have the same

114

:

father, different mothers?

115

:

Amanda: I could see that

116

:

I.

117

:

All: Sure, sure.

118

:

It's on your face of like

had to like, wait, what?

119

:

Contemp leaning.

120

:

But it does kind of make

sense and you're like, damnit.

121

:

It does.

122

:

Tyler: It took me a while.

123

:

I was like, alright, let me

visualize what both of these

124

:

look like in my head real quick.

125

:

We put it together, it's like, okay.

126

:

Yeah.

127

:

All: Okay.

128

:

Sorry.

129

:

I just, you know, gotta

throw it out there.

130

:

Yeah.

131

:

You could have been like,

no, that's so stupid.

132

:

I'm like, oh, amazing.

133

:

I gotta ask the questions,

just like we're asking.

134

:

What have you been up to?

135

:

Amanda: Lots of things.

136

:

Always.

137

:

I just got back from Europe.

138

:

I got back a week ago.

139

:

I was there for two weeks.

140

:

Tyler: What part of Europe?

141

:

Amanda: We went to London.

142

:

Paris.

143

:

We went to Munich for October Fest.

144

:

We were there for the opening day

and then we went to the south of

145

:

France and then we flew back to

New York and went to the Ryder Cup.

146

:

Tyler: Oh, nice.

147

:

Yes, so it was a

148

:

Amanda: whirlwind couple

weeks, but it was a lot of fun.

149

:

Tyler: I'm so jealous.

150

:

Were you there for the end of the Ryder

Cup or did you We, we went on Saturday.

151

:

Oh, okay.

152

:

Amanda: Yep.

153

:

Mm-hmm.

154

:

Sunday would've been a lot more fun, but

155

:

All: that was wild.

156

:

They played a little better on Sunday.

157

:

It got close.

158

:

Mm-hmm.

159

:

So we're gonna walk through

the whole entire experience.

160

:

All right.

161

:

And then get back to normal stuff.

162

:

Okay.

163

:

I'm asking all these questions

because I love to watch people travel.

164

:

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

165

:

I do too,

166

:

All: just because I

don't travel around much.

167

:

Like, please keep

168

:

Amanda: posting your Instagram stories.

169

:

I need to like live through you.

170

:

All: Yes.

171

:

Yes.

172

:

So to start with.

173

:

Time wa time-wise, how did you

figure out what you were gonna do?

174

:

Like how long you wanted mm-hmm.

175

:

For this trip, like, and was

it enough time, do you think?

176

:

Yes.

177

:

Amanda: So we, I definitely

just wanted to do two weeks.

178

:

That's the longest trip I've been on.

179

:

Mm-hmm.

180

:

And that was what I could get off of work.

181

:

So I definitely wanted to do

like London and Paris on top of

182

:

my list just to knock those out.

183

:

I've never been to Europe before.

184

:

Italy is number one.

185

:

I do wanna go to Italy next year

and just do Italy for like two

186

:

weeks, but I kind of wanted to.

187

:

Do some places all in one

time before I did that.

188

:

And then my friend, her bucket list has

always been to go to Munich for October

189

:

Fest, like the legit October Fest.

190

:

So we planted around that 'cause

that was good timing going.

191

:

It's in September, so that was

good timing going in September.

192

:

And then she'd always wanna go to

the south of France and I didn't

193

:

know much about it, but that

ended up being my favorite place.

194

:

So I was really glad that we went there.

195

:

I'm also very much like I just need to

like see the monument or the attraction

196

:

and take a photo with it and move on.

197

:

So we were able to do

everything pretty quick.

198

:

Okay.

199

:

So we were in London for

like two and a half days.

200

:

Paris for a day and a half.

201

:

Literally just went to

Munich for October Fest.

202

:

And then we were in the south

of France for like four days.

203

:

So

204

:

Tyler: did you, what made

that, sorry, go ahead.

205

:

What did, what made that

stick out the most for you?

206

:

The South Track.

207

:

Just like

208

:

Amanda: the vibe there.

209

:

Okay.

210

:

Paris is much more of like city feel.

211

:

Mm-hmm.

212

:

And South France was kind of

what I expected Europe to be.

213

:

Mm-hmm.

214

:

Like little shops and you're

just walking around and.

215

:

Restaurants and coffee shops

and it was just really cute.

216

:

Like everyone's just walking,

there's not a lot of cars.

217

:

Yeah.

218

:

And then like we based ourselves

in Nice and it's really easy

219

:

to take the train around.

220

:

We went like to Cannes, we

went to a beach club there.

221

:

We went to Monaco, went

to the Montecarlo Casino.

222

:

We were able to take a train up

over the border of Italy, so we

223

:

just like went to Italy for dinner.

224

:

Nice.

225

:

Nice.

226

:

So that was really cool.

227

:

Best pasta ever.

228

:

So it's really easy to also get around

and every town is like different.

229

:

It has a different vibe.

230

:

So they were all really cool to see.

231

:

All: Sweet.

232

:

That makes sense.

233

:

So, picking out you, you're like

me, I wanna see an attraction unless

234

:

it's really good historical mm-hmm.

235

:

History and I wanna read about it.

236

:

Let's get the photo, let's dip.

237

:

Yep.

238

:

I did it once.

239

:

We did.

240

:

We're in South Dakota.

241

:

And like I was there for the

National Guard and they were

242

:

like, Hey, we got some time.

243

:

Do you want to go see Mount Rushmore?

244

:

Yes.

245

:

All I can think of is national Treasure,

but they were like, Hey everyone, you

246

:

know, get off the bus, run out there, get

your photos, read a little bit, come back.

247

:

You got like 20 minutes.

248

:

Yep.

249

:

I get out.

250

:

I'm the last person off the bus just

trying to be nice, let other people go.

251

:

And I get up and I'm like.

252

:

Huh.

253

:

It's a lot bigger than I expected.

254

:

Take a selfie with it.

255

:

Go back.

256

:

Let's go.

257

:

Yep.

258

:

And I'm like, that's, that's all I need.

259

:

Like, it's my restaurant.

260

:

That's how I'm,

261

:

Amanda: yep.

262

:

I'm like, where's the bar?

263

:

Where's the shopping?

264

:

Like, let's go.

265

:

Yes.

266

:

All: Let's do this.

267

:

So what did you see in London

as like your big, like mm-hmm.

268

:

Click, click Photoshop.

269

:

Amanda: I really love, like

we went to Buckingham Palace.

270

:

I love Westminster Abbey, big Ben.

271

:

We went on the London

Eye, the big Ferris wheel.

272

:

Okay.

273

:

We did, I really liked, we did

afternoon tea on this bus that

274

:

was like all made of glass.

275

:

So it took you to all the places.

276

:

Mm-hmm.

277

:

While you were like having tea.

278

:

We did like bottomless Prosecco,

so that was a lot of fun move.

279

:

You can get on like it's called the

Uber boat and you just like get on

280

:

you, like just pulled up on your

phone, get on just like an Uber and

281

:

then just you can get off wherever.

282

:

Other than that, we just walked.

283

:

We walked a lot.

284

:

My friend actually sprained her

ankle in the airport on the way.

285

:

Oh no.

286

:

And she got through

the two weeks, so yeah.

287

:

Gosh.

288

:

Yes.

289

:

Not good timing.

290

:

No.

291

:

But she, she was a trooper.

292

:

Okay.

293

:

All: Mm-hmm.

294

:

Hitting a pl, what was your favorite

bar or place you had a drink?

295

:

Maybe not a bar, but like,

296

:

Amanda: Hmm.

297

:

We went to this place for lunch, it

was called the Red Lion, and it was

298

:

like really pretty on the outside.

299

:

I have a picture of it.

300

:

We got like a traditional English lunch

there, so the food was interesting.

301

:

But the drinks really good.

302

:

I pretty much just lived off of

like upper spritzes and wine.

303

:

Okay.

304

:

But yeah.

305

:

So the

306

:

Tyler: portion's like super small?

307

:

Amanda: Mm,

308

:

Tyler: no.

309

:

No.

310

:

Just in

311

:

Amanda: general?

312

:

No, not really.

313

:

And I was surprised at how kind

of cheap the food was in general.

314

:

I mean, everything's in Euros.

315

:

I had some, but like, oh

my God, it's only 60 euros.

316

:

Like.

317

:

Right for a whole meal and

bottle of wine and Yeah.

318

:

Oh.

319

:

Oh, that's not bad at all.

320

:

Yeah.

321

:

Tyler: I've had people have had

traditional like English lunches

322

:

and whatnot there and they

said it was like really small.

323

:

Yeah.

324

:

It was like they had like to a

gather, it was this like big thing

325

:

Amanda: that we split and it was

kind of like chicken pot pie, like

326

:

consistencies with like stuff in them

that we couldn't really make out.

327

:

But it was fine.

328

:

We had to, we had to try the traditional

English food while we're there.

329

:

Okay.

330

:

Exactly.

331

:

All: All the experience.

332

:

Yes.

333

:

I'm, I must be real American.

334

:

I know a traditional

English breakfast mm-hmm.

335

:

Is like what bangers, A mash like.

336

:

Really what I've heard, bland food.

337

:

Mm-hmm.

338

:

Amanda: Yeah, it was

kind of, kind of bland.

339

:

Yeah.

340

:

Like one of them had like steak

or some sort of meat in it.

341

:

That one was good.

342

:

Yeah.

343

:

But the other ones, we couldn't

really figure out what was in it.

344

:

And then it's like mashed potatoes on the

side, like a cauliflower mac and cheese.

345

:

That was, you know, not mac and cheese.

346

:

So, yeah.

347

:

All: It's interesting.

348

:

So like it makes sense that it's

traditional 'cause they're using foods

349

:

that would be found in the two islands.

350

:

Mm-hmm.

351

:

For the most part.

352

:

But I gotta, I gotta put it out there

for a country and like royalty that

353

:

went around the world, conquered

people, sold all these spices.

354

:

Yeah.

355

:

How could they not bring any of them back?

356

:

Very true.

357

:

Right.

358

:

That just hurts my soul.

359

:

What you do with what I agree.

360

:

You first thought of it that way, just

a little, just a little bit more pepper,

361

:

a little like paprika, something.

362

:

Mm-hmm.

363

:

So transitioning London to Paris.

364

:

Yes.

365

:

How'd you do the, did you take the train?

366

:

Fly?

367

:

We took the fly,

368

:

Amanda: like the Eurostar, the

tunnel that goes under the tunnel.

369

:

Mm-hmm.

370

:

That goes under the ocean.

371

:

Mm-hmm.

372

:

So it took like two and a half hours.

373

:

It was really easy.

374

:

That's,

375

:

All: fuck.

376

:

Were you scared at all?

377

:

Amanda: No.

378

:

All: Is it, is it black?

379

:

It's like,

380

:

Amanda: I look, I went down a

TikTok rabbit hole about how they

381

:

made it and I was like, I probably

shouldn't have looked this up.

382

:

Yeah.

383

:

But it's like, it's

crazy how they made it.

384

:

All: That's why I'm like wondering.

385

:

'cause I'm like, I'm assuming there's

some sort of light source on the walls.

386

:

It's not just pitch black.

387

:

And honestly,

388

:

Amanda: I was sleeping through most of it.

389

:

Oh, okay.

390

:

So, yeah, I mean, you just look

out and it's just black, like the,

391

:

like you're in a subway kind of.

392

:

Okay.

393

:

Yeah.

394

:

All: Does it underground

once you get into France?

395

:

Or is it like, does it

come up over You stay

396

:

Amanda: above ground and then you just

go under, like obviously under the water.

397

:

Then you pop back out, and then we

were up on land for a little while.

398

:

Oh, again, okay.

399

:

Yeah.

400

:

I think it's only, don't quote

me like 20 minutes under there.

401

:

It's really not that long.

402

:

Oh, it's like it cut

might be longer than that.

403

:

It's

404

:

All: getting it.

405

:

Amanda: Yeah.

406

:

Oh, it's fast.

407

:

Fast.

408

:

As soon as we left I was like, I

can't believe how fast we're going.

409

:

It was like rollercoaster, fast.

410

:

All: That's interesting.

411

:

Yeah.

412

:

Yeah, because I feel like that's

what the like bullet trains and

413

:

like Japan and China are going.

414

:

Because people be getting

from point to point real fast.

415

:

Yeah.

416

:

Interesting.

417

:

Learn something new.

418

:

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

419

:

All: Your turn for

420

:

Tyler: a

421

:

All: question.

422

:

Tyler: What was something that was the

most surprising when you got over there?

423

:

From any of the countries?

424

:

Amanda: Hmm.

425

:

Tyler: You were expecting one thing.

426

:

I

427

:

Amanda: was expecting people to not be

super nice to us because we're Americans.

428

:

Oh.

429

:

Mm-hmm.

430

:

But everyone was very nice.

431

:

We didn't really deal with.

432

:

Anyone that was super rude.

433

:

And we also, obviously you can get around

London with English, but in Paris and

434

:

like as long as you're like trying, like

we would say like when we walked in.

435

:

Right.

436

:

As long as you're trying,

they were very nice to us.

437

:

Yeah.

438

:

I always knew that they were very

slow with service, but it was like

439

:

slower than I thought it was gonna.

440

:

Oh really?

441

:

We're like, we're ready for the check.

442

:

Like, I gotta get going.

443

:

We have a plan.

444

:

And you just would kind of be

sitting around and you'd make eye

445

:

contact and they would not come over

446

:

All: like, oh, okay.

447

:

But

448

:

Amanda: yeah, so they just

like to enjoy themselves,

449

:

All: so everything is just That's funny.

450

:

Yeah,

451

:

Amanda: yeah, yeah.

452

:

But everyone was super

nice to us, so it was good.

453

:

All: That's neat.

454

:

Mm-hmm.

455

:

So you made it to Paris?

456

:

Mm-hmm.

457

:

Howdy.

458

:

Did you only hit up like the outside

of the Louvre in the Eiffel Tower?

459

:

Did you hit any other spots?

460

:

Amanda: Basically that, yes.

461

:

Okay.

462

:

We made a whole, we did

go shopping that day.

463

:

That was a lot of fun.

464

:

Okay.

465

:

That was our shopping day.

466

:

We went to YSL and Gucci.

467

:

Nice.

468

:

So that, that was a good time.

469

:

We went to like the Arc Day Triumph.

470

:

We walked up to there.

471

:

Shopping took up the

majority of the day that day.

472

:

Understandable.

473

:

But we just still hit

everything we had to hit.

474

:

Okay.

475

:

So we did like an Eiffel Tower

cruise the first night we were there.

476

:

We went ate at a restaurant that was

like right next to the Eiffel Tower.

477

:

Mm-hmm.

478

:

So that was really cool the second night.

479

:

So, yeah.

480

:

Nice.

481

:

All: So what'd you get from YSL?

482

:

Amanda: I got my little cross

body bag that's next to me.

483

:

It's become my entire personality.

484

:

Hey, I love that thing.

485

:

All: I've always heard, like,

obviously if you're going to

486

:

Paris, you gotta buy something.

487

:

Mm-hmm.

488

:

From like a traditional.

489

:

Like Paris Maison.

490

:

Yeah.

491

:

And that's, yeah, that's what do.

492

:

And it ends

493

:

Amanda: up being it's cheaper.

494

:

Mm-hmm.

495

:

It's in Euro obviously, but it

ends up being cheaper and then

496

:

we don't need to pay taxes on it.

497

:

So I just like scan this form at the

airport and I got $300 back to my card.

498

:

Oh, that's really cool.

499

:

That was cool.

500

:

Yeah.

501

:

You have to like declare it when you come

back from the US and luckily they just

502

:

kind of waved us through and didn't charge

us taxes on it for bringing it back.

503

:

But

504

:

All: yeah.

505

:

Shouldn't they have charged you taxes?

506

:

Amanda: You have to like declare it.

507

:

Oh.

508

:

And then we showed them the receipt

and then he was like, go ahead.

509

:

All: Oh, okay.

510

:

Okay.

511

:

Amanda: Thank you for being honest.

512

:

Cool.

513

:

All: Mm-hmm.

514

:

She's a government.

515

:

She did keep her paperwork case.

516

:

Yes.

517

:

Right.

518

:

So I was like, I'm trying

to plan a trip myself.

519

:

Mm-hmm.

520

:

So this is why I'm asking

all these questions.

521

:

Yeah.

522

:

When you left Parri, you went to Munich?

523

:

Yes.

524

:

This is what, this is actually

what I'm trying to do next year.

525

:

Okay.

526

:

So that's why I'm like, Ooh.

527

:

Do you I see.

528

:

Did you take the train?

529

:

We took the train.

530

:

You didn't like it?

531

:

Amanda: No.

532

:

The one from London to

Paris was super easy.

533

:

Yes.

534

:

We had to change trains to get to Munich.

535

:

Yep.

536

:

That's what I heard.

537

:

And there my dad was like,

they're always running on time.

538

:

There was like.

539

:

10 minute interchange and

all of them were 10 minutes.

540

:

So I was like, we have to make it

like it has to be super possible.

541

:

Like there's no way.

542

:

No, no, it was late.

543

:

So then we had to wait for the next train.

544

:

We had to wait an hour.

545

:

So it was fine.

546

:

But now we're in Munich.

547

:

That was probably the place where

not a lot of people spoke English.

548

:

All the signs were in German.

549

:

I was like but luckily we got on

the next train, we had to sign

550

:

seats on our original reservation.

551

:

Then we didn't have

assigned seats anymore.

552

:

Luckily we still sat together.

553

:

But that was a little chaotic.

554

:

The flights were just not good times

when they were really expensive.

555

:

So that's why I took the train.

556

:

Got you, got you.

557

:

And ended up being six hours and

then by the time you like get to the

558

:

airport early, something, the airplane,

whatever, but I would rather take

559

:

an airplane than a train after that.

560

:

The countryside was pretty,

but that's about it.

561

:

All: So at least do it once

just to do the countryside.

562

:

Amanda: Yeah.

563

:

It's hot.

564

:

They don't have air conditioning.

565

:

Really?

566

:

Mm-hmm.

567

:

Yeah.

568

:

On the train.

569

:

No.

570

:

All: Really anywhere up there?

571

:

No.

572

:

Amanda: Mean that was,

that was surprising.

573

:

All: Okay.

574

:

So I always thought that,

and then I realized that

575

:

they're higher, like latitude.

576

:

Oh no.

577

:

It's still hot.

578

:

I know, but they're still

like higher up compared to us.

579

:

Yeah.

580

:

So, yeah.

581

:

And you're going through the mountains?

582

:

Yeah.

583

:

We

584

:

Amanda: were there in

September and it was hot.

585

:

I think it was abnormally hot,

but I was like, I can't imagine

586

:

being here in July with the crowds.

587

:

Like I bet that was way worse.

588

:

All: I could not do that.

589

:

Amanda: Yeah.

590

:

But it was the first day we went

to the first day of Octoberfest.

591

:

It was the hottest first

day it had ever been.

592

:

It was like 85 degrees, no AC

we're in those little outfits, like

593

:

thousands of people in this big tent.

594

:

It was, it was rough.

595

:

All: So did you buy your outfit there?

596

:

Did you I rent, we

597

:

Amanda: rented them actually.

598

:

Okay.

599

:

Mm-hmm.

600

:

They can be very expensive.

601

:

So we rented them.

602

:

So we just got there.

603

:

Took the train, got there, got

to the hotel, settled in and

604

:

went to the store that we had

previously rented them at online.

605

:

Yeah.

606

:

And you just like try on your

size and pick your color, huh?

607

:

It was crazy in there.

608

:

There were probably like a

hundred people in this little

609

:

store, just so that was very hot.

610

:

Yeah.

611

:

Tyler: Was everyone there in an outfit?

612

:

Amanda: Yeah, they were all

there to like pick 'em up.

613

:

It was just a bunch of Americans.

614

:

Yeah,

615

:

Tyler: of course.

616

:

That there's

617

:

Amanda: somebody just

walking around in general.

618

:

'cause you're just hearing

all these different languages.

619

:

Like you would hear someone speak

English and an American accent.

620

:

You're like, where's the American?

621

:

Where are you from?

622

:

So, yeah,

623

:

Tyler: I like that.

624

:

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

625

:

Tyler: Did you have really good

beer over there too, or was it okay?

626

:

Amanda: I mean, it was good.

627

:

I'm not a big beer person.

628

:

Okay.

629

:

I obviously drank beer at Octoberfest

and it's like the giant mug.

630

:

Mm-hmm.

631

:

So that was cool.

632

:

All: So I'm on the fence 'cause I've

heard obviously the beer is better

633

:

because there's less preservatives,

especially in October Fest 'cause

634

:

they're gonna drink through it anyways.

635

:

Yeah.

636

:

'Cause I'd be seeing people, I'm

like, how are you drinking all day?

637

:

Yeah.

638

:

Like, yeah.

639

:

And a lot.

640

:

Well

641

:

Amanda: then we went the first

day and you can't drink until they

642

:

do the opening ceremony at noon.

643

:

Okay.

644

:

So we got in line at seven 30.

645

:

Oh, got in at nine 30.

646

:

Luckily found a table with some American

girls in this tent that we had like

647

:

done research on and picked out.

648

:

But then we sat there awkwardly with

them making small talk until we finally

649

:

got our beer at 1230 and then one

beer and we're all like besties, but.

650

:

Yeah, so I think any other

day you definitely, I think

651

:

nine or 10 you can start.

652

:

But the first day is noon, so just FY

first because you gotta ring the bell.

653

:

All: Okay, I'll remember that.

654

:

Mm-hmm.

655

:

Yeah.

656

:

My friend lives in Munich

and she's like, oh cool.

657

:

Hey, bet you can stay here.

658

:

Tyler: Mm-hmm.

659

:

Nice.

660

:

All: And I'm like, awesome.

661

:

Well probably have back problems

because I feel like every bed

662

:

in Europe is smaller than Yeah.

663

:

Us.

664

:

And

665

:

Amanda: we wanna go back and

we would go, the first day

666

:

was a really cool experience.

667

:

Mm-hmm.

668

:

But we wanna go back on like

a weekday in the middle of it.

669

:

Okay.

670

:

So you can maybe like tent hop Right.

671

:

Hop around a little bit more.

672

:

So see like we had to get there, get

a seat and like just wait it out.

673

:

Just chill On the first day.

674

:

Yeah.

675

:

Or any weekend day.

676

:

All: Yeah.

677

:

'cause that's, I was thinking,

I'm like, if I leave.

678

:

And fly from here to Paris.

679

:

Mm-hmm.

680

:

Then I can do like a day or two

in Paris and then take up a train.

681

:

Yep.

682

:

That's all you would need.

683

:

Yeah.

684

:

Hit the first day.

685

:

Yeah.

686

:

Be like, yo, we hit, we did the first day.

687

:

Then I can leave and go explore.

688

:

Yeah.

689

:

And then on day three, which is

a Monday, come back and be like

690

:

LS was on, actually hang out.

691

:

Yeah.

692

:

Amanda: Perfect plan.

693

:

All: See?

694

:

Tyler: There you go.

695

:

All: Thank you.

696

:

Mm-hmm.

697

:

Amanda: Anytime.

698

:

I

699

:

All: love it.

700

:

So I'm assuming you did the

day you only stayed for a day.

701

:

Amanda: So we got there

the day be like Friday.

702

:

We did Octoberfest Saturday.

703

:

We literally had a blackout day on

our itinerary in case we were dead.

704

:

And we were dead.

705

:

Mm-hmm.

706

:

So Sunday we did not leave the hotel.

707

:

We would a door or their

equivalent of DoorDash twice, Hey.

708

:

And then the next day we had

a very early flight to Denise,

709

:

like, it was like a six 30 flight.

710

:

Oh, I, I picked all these flights

out, like, oh, then we'll have

711

:

the whole for like full day,

there we go to make the itinerary.

712

:

And I was like, oh my God,

we need to wake up at three.

713

:

Like, oops.

714

:

Yeah.

715

:

Every time.

716

:

But it was fine.

717

:

Okay.

718

:

All: You made it.

719

:

Amanda: Exactly.

720

:

All: That's all that matters.

721

:

Mm-hmm.

722

:

You hit up, you made it to Denise.

723

:

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

724

:

All: I'm not gonna lie, I don't know much

about south of France or any of that.

725

:

I didn't either.

726

:

I mean, it's, it could be worse.

727

:

Turn my, also also tick,

728

:

Amanda: tick.

729

:

Do your TikTok research.

730

:

Okay.

731

:

I found so much fun stuff

on TikTok, like restaurants.

732

:

Then we ended up loving the beach club.

733

:

We went to like activities.

734

:

Everything was from TikTok.

735

:

All: You mentioned Beach club.

736

:

What's that?

737

:

Amanda: We went to one, it

was in Cannes and you actually

738

:

have to take a boat to it.

739

:

It was called Lager.

740

:

Mm-hmm.

741

:

So you like take a boat to this

private island where the Beach club is?

742

:

They have two sittings.

743

:

So the first one is

just like a chill lunch.

744

:

We got the second seating.

745

:

So you get there, we got there at

like two 30 and you eat, and then

746

:

it just turns into a big club party.

747

:

Oh, okay.

748

:

Mm-hmm.

749

:

That was probably one of my

favorite one parts of our trip.

750

:

Tyler: I've heard of other places where

there's not a beach just being called

751

:

day clubs because you just hang out and

chill and there's like music and like Yes.

752

:

It

753

:

Amanda: was more of a day club.

754

:

Yeah.

755

:

Okay.

756

:

So there's definitely beach clubs

like along the coast, especially if

757

:

Cannes, that we walk by where like

you rent your like beach chair.

758

:

Okay.

759

:

And that's more of like restaurant.

760

:

Style.

761

:

Okay.

762

:

But this was like a club.

763

:

All: So this is more like

Vegas, like drinking?

764

:

Yes, they right me like Vegas in Miami.

765

:

Amanda: Okay.

766

:

But I was like, this is better.

767

:

All: I mean, you're not in America.

768

:

Yes.

769

:

So you get to experience

like a different vibe.

770

:

Mm-hmm.

771

:

So not, not hating on America,

it's just a different vibe.

772

:

Yes, for sure.

773

:

Yeah.

774

:

Understand.

775

:

Okay.

776

:

I got you.

777

:

Probably better music too.

778

:

Amanda: Yeah, they played a lot of

similar stuff that we would hear too.

779

:

Oh yeah.

780

:

It was like, am I at

the beach bars or Right.

781

:

Yes.

782

:

All: Well, I heard, so this is.

783

:

Super hilarious.

784

:

We went to Usher concert last year

and like I heard the whole set

785

:

and I was like, this is awesome.

786

:

And apparently when we went to Europe, he

was like, I have a whole different set.

787

:

Because somehow, like they had a whole

different rep set of music that people

788

:

know from his like old repertoire.

789

:

Mm-hmm.

790

:

Than what's here.

791

:

Interesting.

792

:

So it's, it's similar, but like

there's some songs and I'm like.

793

:

I've heard that song once in my life.

794

:

Yeah.

795

:

Like, and I can't remember the name of

it, but like the music video, he looks

796

:

like a UPS man like dancing around

doing stuff from the early nineties

797

:

and he's like, yeah, I'm so ready to

be done because I've sang this song

798

:

so many times, Uhhuh and that's crazy.

799

:

I didn't think about that.

800

:

It was fun.

801

:

Amanda: Like we'd be in an Uber

at like five in the morning.

802

:

Mm-hmm.

803

:

And there'd be like a rap song from like

the two early, two thousands from America.

804

:

And I'm like, I love that

they're listening to this year.

805

:

It was so funny.

806

:

I'm like, it's way too

early for this song, but.

807

:

Yeah.

808

:

Love it.

809

:

All: Let's play some ludicrous.

810

:

Let's get high.

811

:

Let's go.

812

:

So you hit up south of France,

you did four days there.

813

:

Amanda: Yeah.

814

:

Uhhuh ish.

815

:

Yep.

816

:

We like flew back to

London like the last night.

817

:

Okay.

818

:

That we were there.

819

:

So we had a full, still full day.

820

:

All: Cool.

821

:

Hmm.

822

:

You said you had the

best, how close is it?

823

:

'cause I know it's like a weird shape.

824

:

Mm-hmm.

825

:

From like France to Italy to Spain.

826

:

Like how close legit were you to Italy?

827

:

Amanda: It was a 40 minute train.

828

:

All: Oh,

829

:

Amanda: mm-hmm.

830

:

It was very close.

831

:

All: Very, very.

832

:

Amanda: So the train is super easy.

833

:

You just get an app.

834

:

Mm-hmm.

835

:

And you just choose what, where you

wanna go, like where you're starting,

836

:

where you wanna go, pops up, how

much it is, you just app will pay it.

837

:

And then our train was a five

minute walk from our hotel.

838

:

It's not bad.

839

:

And then we just got on, we went north,

we went to Monaco, got off, saw Monaco.

840

:

Mm-hmm.

841

:

Went into the Monte Carlo Casino, and

then just got back on the train and it

842

:

was another like 20 minutes to Italy.

843

:

Oh.

844

:

Yeah, it was super easy.

845

:

All: Love it.

846

:

So packing wise, oh gosh.

847

:

'cause right at the end of

your trip you did two weeks.

848

:

That was an ordeal.

849

:

I was gonna say, I'm like, well,

and that's why I'm asking like how

850

:

you traveled, because like I feel

like it'd be easier if you took a

851

:

train, if you had like bigger bags,

but still you flew in some spots.

852

:

Yes.

853

:

So

854

:

Amanda: our goal was to do carry-ons.

855

:

So we had a carry-on suitcase.

856

:

Okay.

857

:

And like a carry-on, like

travel suitcase, backpack.

858

:

That was actually really helpful.

859

:

Mm-hmm.

860

:

They were both stuffed

when we left, both of us.

861

:

So by the time we hit Paris, we had

to go buy a big suitcase to split.

862

:

Okay.

863

:

So we had to take that whole train

to Munich with the big suitcase.

864

:

Oh, okay.

865

:

And then by the time we left, we

had to get a whole nother carry-on

866

:

suitcase just for the stuff that

we had bought at Gucci and YSL.

867

:

So we ended up with four suitcases

and two suitcase backpacks.

868

:

Oops.

869

:

All: You didn't mail anything back?

870

:

Amanda: No.

871

:

We could have done that next time.

872

:

I will take a big one, big suitcase.

873

:

Okay.

874

:

And just not pack it all

away and hopefully just stick

875

:

with the one big suitcase.

876

:

Okay.

877

:

I think one big suitcase would've

been better, easier to take

878

:

around than two carry on sizes.

879

:

All: That's what I, I've heard.

880

:

So like mom, mom and Tina, when she

travels, she is like, I got a book bag.

881

:

Mm-hmm.

882

:

All she takes a book bag in her purse.

883

:

She's like, I'm wearing a pair of jeans.

884

:

I got a shirt.

885

:

An overlayer and a coat

roll up, everything else.

886

:

I'm like, you're gone for two weeks.

887

:

She's like, I can wash clothes.

888

:

Mm-hmm.

889

:

Amanda: We did, we did do some laundry.

890

:

All: Okay.

891

:

Amanda: We did have to go shopping though.

892

:

I mean, I, I did run out of clothes.

893

:

I brought stuff to get me kind of

through London and Paris and then

894

:

All: you didn't, you can repeat outfits.

895

:

Amanda: Yeah.

896

:

And I, I got stuff that could like mix

and match different, so I did, I like

897

:

could mix and match stuff so it wasn't

like straight up the same outfit.

898

:

Yeah.

899

:

But I need, I need more than that.

900

:

I did.

901

:

I did.

902

:

Very good.

903

:

You did?

904

:

I wore everything I brought.

905

:

All: Okay.

906

:

I was gonna say, I'm like, you know, you

take a light pair, a dark pair of jeans.

907

:

Mm-hmm.

908

:

See it white and a black T-shirt.

909

:

I did like white, black tan shirts.

910

:

Amanda: Okay.

911

:

A white jacket, a black

cardigan, like mix and match.

912

:

All: But still, you

just run outta outfits.

913

:

Yep.

914

:

And you gotta look fly.

915

:

Amanda: Exactly.

916

:

All: Even though no one posted on her,

we gotta be sending something different.

917

:

Tyler: What if that same person

that saw me in France Yep.

918

:

Sees me in Germany, they were, the

919

:

Amanda: problem isn't in person.

920

:

The problem is on social media.

921

:

All: Yes, true.

922

:

Fair enough.

923

:

No, you said that.

924

:

I just thought of Euro trip like.

925

:

You never run into anybody.

926

:

But then there's that one person who I'm

like, how are you on the same trip as me?

927

:

Amanda: Yes.

928

:

God.

929

:

We did, we met some ladies that were in

the, on the table at the table next to us

930

:

at the lager eat like beach club in Cann.

931

:

Mm-hmm.

932

:

We ran into them shopping in Nice.

933

:

Like the day that we left.

934

:

Oh what?

935

:

Which was crazy.

936

:

Yeah.

937

:

All: What

938

:

Tyler: are you doing

939

:

All: here?

940

:

Sorry, I just had a take louder Glass.

941

:

I had to finish my cinnamon roll.

942

:

What'd you shop for in these?

943

:

Like, I don't know,

anything that's in there.

944

:

Amanda: Just like clothes they

had, like I got my family's,

945

:

this is a spoiler for Christmas.

946

:

Like cooking stuff?

947

:

Yeah.

948

:

Yeah, just little like trinkets.

949

:

Me and my friend, we separately like

collect magnets everywhere that we go, so

950

:

we had to get a magnet from everywhere.

951

:

That makes sense.

952

:

Those were easy to bring back.

953

:

I think that was about it.

954

:

Tyler: Okay.

955

:

Did you bring any pasta back?

956

:

Amanda: I did.

957

:

Oh, did, I did.

958

:

Yep.

959

:

I went to the market

in Italy and got pasta.

960

:

Nice.

961

:

All: Hey.

962

:

Yeah.

963

:

And she was making pasta the

other night and I was like,

964

:

Amanda: yeah, we made

homemade pasta last night too.

965

:

We're just keeping the,

your, your vibes going.

966

:

I'm so jealous.

967

:

Mm-hmm.

968

:

All: So you time, did you purposely time

it with the Ryder Cup or just happened?

969

:

No, that is a good

970

:

Amanda: question.

971

:

So I like enter the lottery to

buy Ryder Cup tickets back when

972

:

it, it was open, obviously.

973

:

Yeah.

974

:

Got the opportunity to buy

them, bought two and then was

975

:

like, we'll just figure it out.

976

:

At this point, Europe wasn't planned.

977

:

This was last year at some point.

978

:

Okay.

979

:

Yeah.

980

:

And then.

981

:

My friend really wanted to do October

Fest, and I was like, well, the middle

982

:

weekend of October Fest is the Ryder

Cup, so I guess we'll go to October

983

:

Fest and I'll skip the Ryder Cup.

984

:

Then I went to the PGA

championship in Charlotte in May.

985

:

Yeah.

986

:

At this point, I've given my brother

my ticket and my dad's going, and I

987

:

went to that and I was like, oh no,

I really wanna go to the Ryder Cup.

988

:

So we literally rebooked our flights

and went to Europe a week earlier,

989

:

and I was like, we'll just fly back

to New York and go to the Ryder Cup.

990

:

So then I had to buy myself

another Ryder Cup ticket.

991

:

And then I brought my friend a

Ryder Cup ticket, so it was a very

992

:

expensive day, but she got my flights

to and from Europe with her miles.

993

:

Oh, so it was just a trade?

994

:

It worked, yes.

995

:

But it worked out really well.

996

:

So we just flew back to

New York from London.

997

:

Mm-hmm.

998

:

And went to the Ryder Cup the

next day, and then flew back

999

:

to Wilmington the next day.

:

00:27:49,860 --> 00:27:50,730

All: Where was the writer?

:

00:27:50,730 --> 00:27:51,510

It was in pa.

:

00:27:51,930 --> 00:27:52,740

It was in New York.

:

00:27:52,740 --> 00:27:53,175

It was in New York at Beth

:

00:27:53,175 --> 00:27:53,615

Amanda: Page Black.

:

00:27:53,795 --> 00:27:54,215

Mm-hmm.

:

00:27:54,780 --> 00:27:55,830

Like right outside of New York City.

:

00:27:55,830 --> 00:27:56,700

I dunno.

:

00:27:57,870 --> 00:27:58,350

All: I know.

:

00:27:58,350 --> 00:28:01,140

Just enough not to get yelled at.

:

00:28:01,500 --> 00:28:01,590

Mm-hmm.

:

00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:04,830

But not enough to actually

have a full golf conversation.

:

00:28:04,830 --> 00:28:04,980

Yes.

:

00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,320

Amanda: My dad, my mom and dad

lived in New York before I was

:

00:28:07,350 --> 00:28:09,990

born and my dad has actually

played Beth Page block a few times.

:

00:28:09,990 --> 00:28:10,170

Oh, that why?

:

00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:11,280

Back when it was like

:

00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:12,420

All: not Beth Page block

:

00:28:12,420 --> 00:28:13,560

Amanda: not, not expensive.

:

00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:13,860

Yeah.

:

00:28:13,890 --> 00:28:14,550

You could just walk on.

:

00:28:14,550 --> 00:28:16,950

Now you literally have to like

camp out the night before to play.

:

00:28:17,355 --> 00:28:19,155

So I was like, let's go play it

before we go to the Ryder Cup.

:

00:28:19,425 --> 00:28:20,055

It's impossible.

:

00:28:20,300 --> 00:28:20,520

All: No.

:

00:28:21,735 --> 00:28:21,795

Tyler: Yeah.

:

00:28:21,795 --> 00:28:22,115

It was really funny.

:

00:28:22,115 --> 00:28:23,295

Did be a fist bump from Bryson again.

:

00:28:23,355 --> 00:28:23,715

Amanda: I did not.

:

00:28:23,715 --> 00:28:25,640

It was, he was mad.

:

00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,565

It was a lot harder to see them at

this place 'cause there's only so

:

00:28:29,565 --> 00:28:31,695

many groups and so many people there.

:

00:28:32,185 --> 00:28:35,155

So we saw them tee off in

the morning and afternoon.

:

00:28:35,740 --> 00:28:37,780

Other than that, you saw

him like two or three times.

:

00:28:38,260 --> 00:28:41,710

You had to like skip way ahead instead

of like the PGA A or like the US Open

:

00:28:41,710 --> 00:28:44,260

where you could just skip a couple

ahead, kind of, you can follow them.

:

00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,490

It was impossible.

:

00:28:45,550 --> 00:28:45,700

Yeah.

:

00:28:45,730 --> 00:28:49,090

So, and by the time you get a good spot,

you wanna watch, watch all four groups

:

00:28:49,090 --> 00:28:50,290

come through, you're not gonna leave.

:

00:28:50,290 --> 00:28:50,300

Yeah.

:

00:28:50,830 --> 00:28:51,280

So good

:

00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:51,520

All: point.

:

00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,300

Understandable.

:

00:28:52,330 --> 00:28:52,570

Yeah.

:

00:28:52,780 --> 00:28:56,530

I mean, that's the other thing

why I like golf, but only

:

00:28:56,530 --> 00:28:58,270

because of how I've seen golf.

:

00:28:58,270 --> 00:28:58,480

Mm-hmm.

:

00:28:58,810 --> 00:28:59,645

So I'm beyond spoiled.

:

00:28:59,645 --> 00:29:01,125

You get to go Rolex, so

:

00:29:01,345 --> 00:29:02,605

Tyler: get a good, good view.

:

00:29:02,865 --> 00:29:03,760

So yeah, it was

:

00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:04,240

Amanda: great experience.

:

00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,500

I'm really, like my dad

said the same thing.

:

00:29:05,500 --> 00:29:06,550

We're really glad that we went.

:

00:29:06,550 --> 00:29:10,900

It was like once in lifetime experience,

but it didn't see a lot of actual golf.

:

00:29:10,990 --> 00:29:11,290

All: Yeah.

:

00:29:11,740 --> 00:29:13,390

Amanda: So we probably

wouldn't do one again.

:

00:29:13,630 --> 00:29:13,900

Okay.

:

00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:14,980

But that makes sense.

:

00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:15,340

Yeah.

:

00:29:15,435 --> 00:29:15,725

Yeah.

:

00:29:16,975 --> 00:29:19,195

All: I was picking with her 'cause

I went to the PGA this year.

:

00:29:19,195 --> 00:29:19,285

Yes.

:

00:29:19,585 --> 00:29:21,715

And I was like, are you here?

:

00:29:22,165 --> 00:29:22,465

You know?

:

00:29:22,645 --> 00:29:22,945

Hi Don.

:

00:29:22,945 --> 00:29:23,035

There.

:

00:29:23,035 --> 00:29:24,355

You went the day after me, right?

:

00:29:24,355 --> 00:29:25,335

Yeah, I went the day after.

:

00:29:25,335 --> 00:29:25,345

Yeah.

:

00:29:25,525 --> 00:29:29,095

It was a, it was a joke because

we took some of our clients

:

00:29:29,305 --> 00:29:33,655

and they were just like, oh, I

don't know if I can watch this.

:

00:29:34,660 --> 00:29:38,500

From like, it was great because where

we were at, we were on the corner.

:

00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:38,650

Mm-hmm.

:

00:29:38,890 --> 00:29:41,710

So you could look all the

way down the fairway of 18.

:

00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:42,185

Oh, that's cool.

:

00:29:42,185 --> 00:29:42,195

Cool.

:

00:29:42,195 --> 00:29:45,910

And look over at like

the, I guess the hole.

:

00:29:46,420 --> 00:29:46,600

Mm-hmm.

:

00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,370

So it was like a really good angle.

:

00:29:48,670 --> 00:29:50,830

And then you could just walk

inside and get air conditioning

:

00:29:50,830 --> 00:29:51,430

and actually Oh, amazing.

:

00:29:51,550 --> 00:29:54,010

It was the TV and be like, oh,

this is where so and so is.

:

00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:54,580

Yeah.

:

00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,555

She's like sitting up there, just like

waving down at the pea below at the pea.

:

00:29:59,325 --> 00:30:05,000

It, I felt really bad because

like we were at the spot, I guess

:

00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,580

when they finished the 18th hole,

they like, there's like a walkway.

:

00:30:07,610 --> 00:30:07,910

Yes.

:

00:30:08,075 --> 00:30:08,195

I,

:

00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,830

Amanda: I camped out there

and saw Bryce said, walk off.

:

00:30:09,860 --> 00:30:10,070

Yeah.

:

00:30:10,130 --> 00:30:10,280

Yep.

:

00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,155

All: So we were in the

building directly above it.

:

00:30:13,225 --> 00:30:13,515

Okay.

:

00:30:13,515 --> 00:30:17,090

So I was like looking down and

I think, I guess we went Friday.

:

00:30:17,330 --> 00:30:17,990

No, Saturday

:

00:30:18,315 --> 00:30:19,550

Amanda: I went, I think I went Friday.

:

00:30:19,580 --> 00:30:20,420

All: So we went Saturday.

:

00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:20,600

Okay.

:

00:30:20,870 --> 00:30:23,390

And like whoever there was some.

:

00:30:23,810 --> 00:30:27,800

Asian fellow who was doing really

well, and then throughout his.

:

00:30:28,535 --> 00:30:29,855

Day just fell off.

:

00:30:30,005 --> 00:30:30,035

Oh.

:

00:30:30,095 --> 00:30:35,015

And I was wa looking over and watched him

like punch a gate and like kick a cart.

:

00:30:35,225 --> 00:30:39,695

He was so furious and like it was perfect

'cause like you're never gonna see it.

:

00:30:39,695 --> 00:30:41,435

'cause he's kind of like

hiding around a corner.

:

00:30:41,435 --> 00:30:41,525

Right.

:

00:30:42,005 --> 00:30:45,275

And then like you just watch the,

he had to switch it up and like.

:

00:30:45,895 --> 00:30:46,590

Amanda: Hi for the public.

:

00:30:46,700 --> 00:30:46,990

Yeah.

:

00:30:47,450 --> 00:30:47,790

And you.

:

00:30:47,990 --> 00:30:48,310

I was like,

:

00:30:48,325 --> 00:30:49,495

All: oh, this is awesome.

:

00:30:50,065 --> 00:30:54,265

So yes, I would love to go watch

golf like on a ground level, but

:

00:30:54,385 --> 00:30:56,305

I have definitely been spoiled.

:

00:30:56,335 --> 00:30:56,455

Mm-hmm.

:

00:30:56,695 --> 00:30:56,905

Yeah.

:

00:30:57,265 --> 00:30:58,195

I don't know if I could do it.

:

00:30:59,215 --> 00:30:59,695

Tyler: I get it now.

:

00:30:59,695 --> 00:31:00,865

I gotta go watch tennis.

:

00:31:02,335 --> 00:31:05,305

I'm not as much into wanting

to go to a tennis, like maybe

:

00:31:05,305 --> 00:31:06,655

I would go like to the open.

:

00:31:06,895 --> 00:31:07,580

Like that might be fun.

:

00:31:07,580 --> 00:31:07,780

Yeah.

:

00:31:07,780 --> 00:31:08,665

Amanda: That'd be a cool experience.

:

00:31:08,665 --> 00:31:08,995

But

:

00:31:09,055 --> 00:31:09,175

Tyler: yeah.

:

00:31:10,085 --> 00:31:10,955

That's what I wanna do.

:

00:31:11,075 --> 00:31:11,255

Yeah.

:

00:31:11,255 --> 00:31:12,995

Like maybe once, but I don't know.

:

00:31:13,145 --> 00:31:14,105

Just, just to say I went, yeah.

:

00:31:14,105 --> 00:31:17,525

Not necessarily like to actually

watch the match, but you

:

00:31:17,525 --> 00:31:18,155

know what I, people ever like

:

00:31:18,155 --> 00:31:19,235

Amanda: played tennis.

:

00:31:19,595 --> 00:31:20,195

Yeah.

:

00:31:20,195 --> 00:31:20,255

They

:

00:31:20,260 --> 00:31:20,280

All: don't.

:

00:31:20,430 --> 00:31:20,720

Yeah.

:

00:31:20,725 --> 00:31:20,945

Yeah.

:

00:31:21,185 --> 00:31:22,565

But I don't play golf either.

:

00:31:22,565 --> 00:31:24,035

And it's still, yeah.

:

00:31:24,095 --> 00:31:25,055

It's just the experience.

:

00:31:25,055 --> 00:31:28,865

I'm like, there's always places where

you're like, I want to go at least once.

:

00:31:28,870 --> 00:31:29,000

Mm-hmm.

:

00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:29,090

Mm-hmm.

:

00:31:29,225 --> 00:31:29,435

That's true.

:

00:31:29,615 --> 00:31:31,295

Just to be like, let's do this.

:

00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,490

Tyler: It's kind of off topic,

but since you brought up tennis.

:

00:31:34,550 --> 00:31:34,640

Mm-hmm.

:

00:31:34,940 --> 00:31:39,320

I played pickleball for the first time

in like 10 years, so that was fun.

:

00:31:39,620 --> 00:31:40,970

Wait, pickleball was around 10 years ago.

:

00:31:41,435 --> 00:31:42,755

It was that round a long time ago.

:

00:31:42,755 --> 00:31:44,135

I mean, I was playing it in high school.

:

00:31:44,300 --> 00:31:44,520

Amanda: Oh.

:

00:31:44,885 --> 00:31:45,125

Oh,

:

00:31:45,425 --> 00:31:45,755

Tyler: yeah.

:

00:31:45,755 --> 00:31:46,565

Amanda: Now it's just trendy.

:

00:31:46,895 --> 00:31:47,975

Now it's like, so, so

:

00:31:47,975 --> 00:31:51,035

Tyler: they called it

Lifetime Sports and Athletics.

:

00:31:51,035 --> 00:31:52,715

It was a class that I took in high school.

:

00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:52,840

Okay.

:

00:31:52,845 --> 00:31:53,015

Yeah.

:

00:31:53,045 --> 00:31:56,105

So it was like, Hey, when you're

like 80 years old, you can still

:

00:31:56,105 --> 00:31:58,625

play golf, you can still play

tennis, you can still do pickleball

:

00:31:58,685 --> 00:31:59,885

and like other things like that.

:

00:31:59,885 --> 00:32:00,905

So that's how I learned about it.

:

00:32:00,935 --> 00:32:03,305

Got, but it only started

growing around like COVID?

:

00:32:03,340 --> 00:32:03,760

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

:

00:32:03,965 --> 00:32:04,235

Tyler: Yeah.

:

00:32:04,415 --> 00:32:07,565

All: I mean, I do know pickleball

is older than like five years.

:

00:32:07,565 --> 00:32:07,680

Five years.

:

00:32:07,715 --> 00:32:07,865

Yeah.

:

00:32:08,165 --> 00:32:09,640

Because I, you know, was 20 years old.

:

00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:09,760

Yes.

:

00:32:09,935 --> 00:32:10,085

Yeah.

:

00:32:10,415 --> 00:32:11,615

Well, no, I did the research.

:

00:32:11,615 --> 00:32:13,325

'cause I'm like, why is it called Pickle?

:

00:32:13,505 --> 00:32:19,145

Because Chris and his bullshit was like,

yeah, because originally that's all they

:

00:32:19,145 --> 00:32:23,375

had were like, they had leftover pickles

and they were bored after dinner, so

:

00:32:23,375 --> 00:32:24,665

they were just hitting it back and forth.

:

00:32:25,415 --> 00:32:26,015

And so with actual

:

00:32:26,015 --> 00:32:26,615

Amanda: pickles,

:

00:32:26,915 --> 00:32:28,535

All: no, that's a, that's a Chris story.

:

00:32:28,550 --> 00:32:30,005

I was gonna say, Chris was making it up.

:

00:32:30,005 --> 00:32:30,815

This is bullshit.

:

00:32:30,815 --> 00:32:31,775

I'm like, I'm believing you.

:

00:32:31,775 --> 00:32:34,505

No, I'm pretty sure like the actual

story is like, that's the name of the

:

00:32:34,505 --> 00:32:36,605

dog of the family who kind of like.

:

00:32:37,100 --> 00:32:38,360

Created pickleball.

:

00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,500

But they were just a rich

family that was bored.

:

00:32:40,500 --> 00:32:41,760

Oh yeah.

:

00:32:41,850 --> 00:32:43,635

That, so they, that's

just how it came out.

:

00:32:43,635 --> 00:32:43,950

Just like we're

:

00:32:43,950 --> 00:32:45,360

Tyler: on Sir Tyler Drive right now.

:

00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,610

It's not actually named

after me, believe it or not.

:

00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,710

I mean, I know that's surprising

for a lot of people, but it's

:

00:32:49,710 --> 00:32:51,360

actually named after the dog.

:

00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:51,400

All: Just go with it.

:

00:32:52,055 --> 00:32:52,755

Oh yeah.

:

00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:53,790

That used to call 'em Sir

:

00:32:53,790 --> 00:32:54,210

Tyler: Tyler.

:

00:32:54,390 --> 00:32:54,510

All: Oh yeah.

:

00:32:55,575 --> 00:32:58,065

That is a real, that makes sense.

:

00:32:58,455 --> 00:32:59,595

Street names.

:

00:32:59,745 --> 00:33:02,745

That's another cool thing, like

where people come up with the ideas

:

00:33:02,745 --> 00:33:03,945

of like street names and stuff.

:

00:33:03,975 --> 00:33:04,215

Yeah.

:

00:33:04,275 --> 00:33:04,695

I mean,

:

00:33:04,695 --> 00:33:07,725

Tyler: I, this office

used to be on Parker Farm.

:

00:33:07,725 --> 00:33:07,905

Mm-hmm.

:

00:33:08,145 --> 00:33:10,575

Which Mayfair was Parker's farm.

:

00:33:10,755 --> 00:33:11,205

Yes.

:

00:33:11,295 --> 00:33:13,605

So, oh, you didn't know that?

:

00:33:13,875 --> 00:33:15,045

Amanda: I did know it used to be a farm.

:

00:33:15,195 --> 00:33:15,870

Yeah, I know that.

:

00:33:15,975 --> 00:33:16,430

That was the name of it.

:

00:33:16,430 --> 00:33:17,205

Last name was Parker.

:

00:33:17,235 --> 00:33:17,415

Yeah.

:

00:33:17,415 --> 00:33:17,625

Cool.

:

00:33:18,555 --> 00:33:19,545

All: We're teaching you so many things.

:

00:33:19,545 --> 00:33:19,995

Yeah, so many things.

:

00:33:20,655 --> 00:33:21,105

Wilmington

:

00:33:21,105 --> 00:33:21,705

Amanda: history,

:

00:33:22,305 --> 00:33:23,805

All: so talking about history.

:

00:33:24,075 --> 00:33:24,585

Amanda: Oh gosh.

:

00:33:26,430 --> 00:33:29,040

All: No, I'm just picking up, I

had no clue where that was going.

:

00:33:29,130 --> 00:33:30,535

I was like, oh no.

:

00:33:30,835 --> 00:33:31,320

Oh, well, no.

:

00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,320

I was gonna be like, so talking about

history, how is your dating history going?

:

00:33:34,470 --> 00:33:34,590

Oh,

:

00:33:38,070 --> 00:33:39,255

Amanda: still non-existent.

:

00:33:41,010 --> 00:33:43,020

Sorry, I just had No,

that would've been funny.

:

00:33:43,860 --> 00:33:47,880

All: The See Tyler is

about gagged must spin it.

:

00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,680

But how are your events going?

:

00:33:49,685 --> 00:33:50,535

The events are going really well.

:

00:33:50,535 --> 00:33:50,775

Okay.

:

00:33:50,795 --> 00:33:51,215

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

:

00:33:51,915 --> 00:33:54,120

All: So for those who

missed the first episode.

:

00:33:54,690 --> 00:33:55,800

Tell us a little bit like what's going on?

:

00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:55,890

Yeah.

:

00:33:55,890 --> 00:33:56,305

So my

:

00:33:56,305 --> 00:33:58,980

Amanda: friend and I put on

Wellington single singles events.

:

00:33:59,130 --> 00:33:59,220

All: Mm-hmm.

:

00:33:59,490 --> 00:34:03,180

Amanda: We're mainly doing ages 28 to

49, and we just get usually 50 girls,

:

00:34:03,180 --> 00:34:05,970

50 guys all in a room together at a bar.

:

00:34:05,970 --> 00:34:06,660

And it's just chill.

:

00:34:06,660 --> 00:34:08,909

We don't do any cheesy dating games.

:

00:34:09,420 --> 00:34:11,310

You're just hanging out and

you know everyone's single.

:

00:34:11,370 --> 00:34:11,460

Mm-hmm.

:

00:34:11,739 --> 00:34:12,580

They've been a lot of fun.

:

00:34:12,580 --> 00:34:14,020

We've sold out all of them.

:

00:34:14,380 --> 00:34:14,500

Wow.

:

00:34:14,550 --> 00:34:15,570

We do them once a month.

:

00:34:15,670 --> 00:34:18,219

I think since I was on, we've

done like Eagles Dare under front.

:

00:34:19,270 --> 00:34:21,010

Cargo Cade and we did Jimmy's.

:

00:34:21,310 --> 00:34:21,925

Oh, nice, nice.

:

00:34:21,940 --> 00:34:25,330

And then our one for this month is

back at under front and we're doing

:

00:34:25,330 --> 00:34:26,710

like a Halloween costume party.

:

00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:27,520

Okay, I did see that.

:

00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:27,820

Yes.

:

00:34:27,820 --> 00:34:29,020

All: So when is it this month?

:

00:34:29,020 --> 00:34:31,570

Amanda: That one is October 18th,

a Saturday from six to eight.

:

00:34:32,170 --> 00:34:33,610

All: So check it out.

:

00:34:33,610 --> 00:34:34,840

All those single people.

:

00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:34,929

Yes.

:

00:34:35,170 --> 00:34:36,190

We'll get this one out before then.

:

00:34:36,429 --> 00:34:36,550

Yes.

:

00:34:37,005 --> 00:34:40,000

I was dying, I had a customer

yesterday and she's like, my husband

:

00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,489

hasn't worn a wedding ring in like 20

years and it's never been an issue.

:

00:34:45,670 --> 00:34:46,690

Oh, well her sister.

:

00:34:47,245 --> 00:34:51,835

Her sister-in-law, somebody just

became single from a divorce and old

:

00:34:51,835 --> 00:34:56,455

girl was like looking around, oh, I

don't, she's like, what are you doing?

:

00:34:56,455 --> 00:34:59,245

She's like, I'm making sure he is

seeing if he's got a ring on his hand.

:

00:34:59,245 --> 00:35:00,145

No, if he's married.

:

00:35:00,295 --> 00:35:03,295

And I'm like, that's hilarious.

:

00:35:03,415 --> 00:35:04,825

Amanda: Oh, my friend

does that all the time.

:

00:35:04,825 --> 00:35:05,845

That's the first thing she looks at.

:

00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,150

All: Yes.

:

00:35:07,180 --> 00:35:07,510

Yep.

:

00:35:07,810 --> 00:35:11,020

But this woman was

like, these ain't loyal.

:

00:35:11,025 --> 00:35:13,090

Like, oh yeah, you just

gotta lock him down.

:

00:35:13,330 --> 00:35:14,740

And I was like, this is hilarious.

:

00:35:14,740 --> 00:35:17,500

'cause it's coming from like a 50

something year old white woman.

:

00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:17,650

Mm-hmm.

:

00:35:17,890 --> 00:35:19,990

Who literally just quoted Jose Loyal.

:

00:35:20,890 --> 00:35:20,980

Yeah.

:

00:35:21,865 --> 00:35:22,525

But also, so that

:

00:35:22,525 --> 00:35:25,495

Tyler: reminds me, I need to get up

with you and get my ring resized.

:

00:35:25,495 --> 00:35:29,635

I haven't worn like a ring for like a year

just because my hands have gotten large.

:

00:35:29,725 --> 00:35:34,435

All: Yeah, so for those women who listen

and for those men fun fact, when you

:

00:35:34,435 --> 00:35:38,065

wear a ring, your finger does constrict

slightly, so there's still an imprint.

:

00:35:38,345 --> 00:35:41,720

So don't think that you can just

take your ring off and like slide.

:

00:35:41,830 --> 00:35:45,580

I'm just trying to help those women out to

not be getting yelled at by somebody else.

:

00:35:45,580 --> 00:35:47,440

'cause some dude's being stupid and

:

00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,390

Tyler: in the summer you

can always definitely tell

:

00:35:51,430 --> 00:35:51,490

Is

:

00:35:51,490 --> 00:35:52,120

Amanda: that tan line?

:

00:35:52,780 --> 00:35:52,960

Oh my

:

00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:53,530

All: gosh.

:

00:35:53,890 --> 00:35:57,700

Well, some people don't like, oddly

enough, like I don't have a tan line,

:

00:35:57,730 --> 00:36:03,080

but like my skin has like a weird, like

it's discolored because it's mm-hmm.

:

00:36:03,135 --> 00:36:04,435

It gets so hot underneath it.

:

00:36:04,535 --> 00:36:06,910

So it's like that weird,

like sweat line I guess.

:

00:36:07,390 --> 00:36:10,630

But random thoughts, concepts.

:

00:36:11,635 --> 00:36:13,735

But going, stay safe out there, guys.

:

00:36:13,735 --> 00:36:15,235

Yes, stay safe out there.

:

00:36:15,235 --> 00:36:15,625

Ladies.

:

00:36:16,225 --> 00:36:17,755

Don't be falling for these tricks.

:

00:36:17,875 --> 00:36:17,965

Nope.

:

00:36:19,045 --> 00:36:20,185

Talking about the ladies.

:

00:36:20,245 --> 00:36:21,145

Tell us about your nails.

:

00:36:21,145 --> 00:36:22,195

'cause these look so pretty.

:

00:36:22,195 --> 00:36:22,225

Oh,

:

00:36:22,375 --> 00:36:22,765

Amanda: thank you.

:

00:36:22,765 --> 00:36:23,875

I just got them done yesterday.

:

00:36:24,595 --> 00:36:26,215

I asked for like a cherry mocha.

:

00:36:26,395 --> 00:36:26,815

All: Okay.

:

00:36:26,965 --> 00:36:27,085

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

:

00:36:27,775 --> 00:36:28,825

All: You got a name for it?

:

00:36:29,275 --> 00:36:29,965

Is that literally cherry?

:

00:36:29,965 --> 00:36:30,595

I think it was called

:

00:36:30,595 --> 00:36:31,525

Amanda: Marilyn Merlot.

:

00:36:32,180 --> 00:36:32,470

Okay.

:

00:36:33,180 --> 00:36:33,470

Same.

:

00:36:33,475 --> 00:36:34,285

It wasn't an OPI.

:

00:36:34,285 --> 00:36:35,335

It was a different brand, but yeah.

:

00:36:36,115 --> 00:36:36,625

All: Love it.

:

00:36:36,655 --> 00:36:39,295

Amanda: They were pink from Europe

and like the, my thumb was broken off.

:

00:36:39,295 --> 00:36:40,825

They were rough, so now

they look a lot better.

:

00:36:41,125 --> 00:36:41,455

Nice.

:

00:36:41,455 --> 00:36:41,545

Mm-hmm.

:

00:36:41,785 --> 00:36:41,875

What

:

00:36:41,875 --> 00:36:42,625

All: shape is this?

:

00:36:43,075 --> 00:36:43,615

Amanda: Almond.

:

00:36:43,705 --> 00:36:44,035

All: Okay.

:

00:36:44,575 --> 00:36:44,665

Yes.

:

00:36:44,845 --> 00:36:45,940

I even knew that.

:

00:36:47,070 --> 00:36:47,430

I did too.

:

00:36:47,670 --> 00:36:49,585

I feel like you guessed that

last time I got it right.

:

00:36:49,645 --> 00:36:50,815

Yes, I know that.

:

00:36:50,815 --> 00:36:51,685

Yeah, we stick, put the same thing.

:

00:36:51,685 --> 00:36:52,585

I'm just making sure.

:

00:36:52,945 --> 00:36:53,215

Okay.

:

00:36:53,245 --> 00:36:55,795

I'm here to give everybody game.

:

00:36:56,395 --> 00:36:57,325

I play both sides.

:

00:36:57,325 --> 00:37:00,115

Like fellas, if you call a girl

out and be like, oh, I like those

:

00:37:00,115 --> 00:37:01,195

almond nails, she'd be like.

:

00:37:02,170 --> 00:37:02,470

Hold up.

:

00:37:02,470 --> 00:37:03,730

Amanda: I actually think

that's kind of weird.

:

00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,630

All: I was gonna say there's, well,

but in my head I'm like, it goes to the

:

00:37:07,630 --> 00:37:09,190

TikTok where it's like, who cooked here?

:

00:37:09,490 --> 00:37:11,710

Like someone else was cooking beforehand.

:

00:37:11,740 --> 00:37:12,280

Yes.

:

00:37:12,430 --> 00:37:15,670

I saw this guy who was like,

yeah, he, his bathroom.

:

00:37:15,670 --> 00:37:16,690

Like he's a single dude.

:

00:37:16,690 --> 00:37:21,010

He has like stuff, or like

his face and like his set up.

:

00:37:21,070 --> 00:37:21,160

Mm-hmm.

:

00:37:21,340 --> 00:37:24,580

His shower doesn't just

have like dial hand sew.

:

00:37:24,580 --> 00:37:26,170

That's the one bottle

that does everything.

:

00:37:26,260 --> 00:37:26,470

Yes.

:

00:37:26,470 --> 00:37:27,610

He has like actual like.

:

00:37:28,420 --> 00:37:31,210

Stuff and like this girl

apparently like videoed, his

:

00:37:31,210 --> 00:37:32,560

whole entire bathroom was like.

:

00:37:33,025 --> 00:37:35,335

Someone else cooked here and

all these people liked it.

:

00:37:35,725 --> 00:37:40,255

And his mom like, commented, was like,

bro, why is your stuff all over TikTok?

:

00:37:40,975 --> 00:37:42,055

And I was like, did she do

:

00:37:42,055 --> 00:37:42,505

Amanda: it for him?

:

00:37:42,595 --> 00:37:42,655

I,

:

00:37:43,345 --> 00:37:45,055

All: I just died laughing.

:

00:37:45,055 --> 00:37:47,185

'cause I'm like, Nope, I'm not that guy.

:

00:37:47,725 --> 00:37:48,775

I don't wish to be that guy.

:

00:37:48,895 --> 00:37:49,825

I like being married.

:

00:37:51,175 --> 00:37:55,495

But thinking, talking about not being

married, but talking about alcohol.

:

00:37:55,615 --> 00:37:56,575

How do you like the Rio?

:

00:37:56,785 --> 00:37:57,475

Amanda: It's really good.

:

00:37:58,675 --> 00:38:00,775

I'm not a big whiskey girl, but it's good.

:

00:38:01,195 --> 00:38:01,975

I've been sipping on it.

:

00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:02,680

All: True.

:

00:38:02,740 --> 00:38:03,850

You didn't take a shot of it?

:

00:38:04,090 --> 00:38:05,710

Amanda: I did not take

a shot of it this time.

:

00:38:06,130 --> 00:38:06,280

Good.

:

00:38:07,150 --> 00:38:07,990

Tyler: What do you think, Tyler?

:

00:38:08,530 --> 00:38:11,020

This is probably one of

my top five favorites now.

:

00:38:11,020 --> 00:38:11,470

Yeah, it's really good.

:

00:38:11,770 --> 00:38:12,400

I love this one.

:

00:38:13,570 --> 00:38:14,470

So just very different top

:

00:38:14,470 --> 00:38:14,860

Amanda: five.

:

00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:15,820

Wow.

:

00:38:16,810 --> 00:38:17,800

All: Which is saying a lot.

:

00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:22,720

We've had like you had a lot 500

different, we've been, we're coming

:

00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:27,730

up on the start of year four of the

podcast, so there, there's a lot.

:

00:38:28,070 --> 00:38:30,950

Let us know if you guys

want us to do like.

:

00:38:31,730 --> 00:38:36,560

Another recap, like top 20 favorites

or just go over like some of our,

:

00:38:37,610 --> 00:38:39,560

you know, seasonal favorites.

:

00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,750

Because I think, I personally think

it'd be kind of cool, but let us

:

00:38:42,750 --> 00:38:43,860

know if you guys would like that too.

:

00:38:43,865 --> 00:38:44,455

Amanda: Yeah, that'd be cool.

:

00:38:44,670 --> 00:38:44,910

All: Yeah.

:

00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:47,790

So go ahead.

:

00:38:48,450 --> 00:38:49,470

Nothing, I'm just messing with you.

:

00:38:50,460 --> 00:38:52,350

So Swiss beats tell us.

:

00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,290

This is gonna be your name in my head.

:

00:38:55,290 --> 00:38:56,250

That's fine for forever.

:

00:38:56,250 --> 00:38:57,090

I've been called up before.

:

00:38:57,750 --> 00:38:59,370

I know we had that conversation.

:

00:38:59,850 --> 00:39:01,320

I almost asked when you showed up.

:

00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,470

I'm like, I was like, are you

wearing some K Swisses failed.

:

00:39:05,460 --> 00:39:06,480

That would've been,

:

00:39:08,670 --> 00:39:09,540

Amanda: I should, I should

have showed up in those.

:

00:39:09,540 --> 00:39:10,320

I need to buy some.

:

00:39:10,545 --> 00:39:11,655

I don't own any.

:

00:39:11,985 --> 00:39:12,405

All: Mm.

:

00:39:12,855 --> 00:39:14,235

Are they even in production?

:

00:39:14,505 --> 00:39:15,705

Oh, they just, I, that's still

:

00:39:15,850 --> 00:39:16,090

Amanda: a thing.

:

00:39:16,090 --> 00:39:16,410

I don't know.

:

00:39:16,450 --> 00:39:16,690

I don't

:

00:39:16,690 --> 00:39:16,730

All: know.

:

00:39:16,735 --> 00:39:18,945

I don't, I thought Von

Dutch had gone out too.

:

00:39:19,275 --> 00:39:20,895

You could probably find

'em on eBay somewhere.

:

00:39:21,075 --> 00:39:21,405

Amanda: Yeah.

:

00:39:21,885 --> 00:39:26,205

All: Apparently someone bought Von Dutch

and then like paid somebody to hype 'em

:

00:39:26,205 --> 00:39:27,735

up and now they're like coming back.

:

00:39:27,885 --> 00:39:28,455

Oh, interesting.

:

00:39:28,755 --> 00:39:30,555

And I was like, that's so interesting.

:

00:39:31,035 --> 00:39:33,285

The world is just this big cycle.

:

00:39:33,975 --> 00:39:35,385

The wheel of time always rolls on.

:

00:39:35,445 --> 00:39:35,535

Mm-hmm.

:

00:39:35,835 --> 00:39:37,305

Tyler: There's something out there.

:

00:39:37,305 --> 00:39:38,775

I don't know if it was a candy.

:

00:39:38,775 --> 00:39:40,185

I'll have to do some research on it again.

:

00:39:40,545 --> 00:39:43,995

It was like a candy that like died

out, but there was a brand that

:

00:39:44,355 --> 00:39:45,940

still technically owned mm-hmm.

:

00:39:46,130 --> 00:39:46,740

That brand.

:

00:39:46,740 --> 00:39:46,750

Mm-hmm.

:

00:39:47,415 --> 00:39:49,515

And they reached out to it and

they're like, Hey, I'll buy it for

:

00:39:49,515 --> 00:39:52,005

like a couple thousand dollars 'cause

you're not doing anything with it.

:

00:39:52,275 --> 00:39:54,885

And they like, ri revived

this candy brand again.

:

00:39:54,915 --> 00:39:57,315

I'll have to find it and like put

it in the show notes or something.

:

00:39:57,645 --> 00:39:58,185

But yeah.

:

00:39:58,185 --> 00:39:58,305

Was

:

00:39:58,305 --> 00:40:01,485

All: it the, was it the little

strawberry things that you could

:

00:40:01,485 --> 00:40:02,595

get from your grandparents?

:

00:40:02,985 --> 00:40:03,465

It might be.

:

00:40:04,515 --> 00:40:06,285

I don't even know if

there was a name for this.

:

00:40:06,885 --> 00:40:09,855

I think they're literally

like, they just have a basic.

:

00:40:10,395 --> 00:40:12,495

It literally is like strawberry something.

:

00:40:12,975 --> 00:40:13,245

Yeah.

:

00:40:13,245 --> 00:40:14,865

I still don't know.

:

00:40:16,035 --> 00:40:20,415

Like I've seen them only once in like

a candy shop and I legit, I still

:

00:40:20,415 --> 00:40:21,885

don't know where you find those things.

:

00:40:21,885 --> 00:40:24,250

Tyler: Like do you turn 50 and

you just get a bags at your house?

:

00:40:25,070 --> 00:40:26,010

You get access to those.

:

00:40:26,720 --> 00:40:27,050

It's like

:

00:40:27,375 --> 00:40:30,315

All: a Harry Potter thing where like

you, your eyes open up at 50 and you

:

00:40:30,315 --> 00:40:32,085

can now see a different set of candy.

:

00:40:32,085 --> 00:40:32,235

Yep.

:

00:40:32,625 --> 00:40:36,735

Like the, the word there's originals

or you can buy them as just singles

:

00:40:37,005 --> 00:40:38,565

and then the strawberry things.

:

00:40:38,745 --> 00:40:39,050

Oh my god.

:

00:40:40,590 --> 00:40:43,320

I should make that as a

shop, like a candy store.

:

00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:43,745

That would be hilarious.

:

00:40:43,815 --> 00:40:44,705

Just for elders.

:

00:40:46,140 --> 00:40:48,360

Like, you need to come in

outside of Cameron Village.

:

00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:48,720

Yes.

:

00:40:48,810 --> 00:40:50,100

You gotta go to church tomorrow.

:

00:40:50,100 --> 00:40:50,460

All right.

:

00:40:50,460 --> 00:40:50,970

We just stock up.

:

00:40:51,870 --> 00:40:52,140

Let's do this.

:

00:40:52,380 --> 00:40:58,290

Only opened on Saturdays, Friday nights

and Saturdays when everyone's going to

:

00:40:58,290 --> 00:40:59,850

the club, the old people are stocking up.

:

00:40:59,850 --> 00:41:00,060

There you go.

:

00:41:00,060 --> 00:41:00,510

That's true.

:

00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:01,050

Yes.

:

00:41:01,470 --> 00:41:05,700

So you've done a lot since you

were been on here recently?

:

00:41:05,700 --> 00:41:05,790

Yes.

:

00:41:05,790 --> 00:41:06,390

Amanda: Mm-hmm.

:

00:41:07,365 --> 00:41:09,885

All: Has your definition

of success changed at all?

:

00:41:11,085 --> 00:41:11,355

Amanda: Yes.

:

00:41:11,355 --> 00:41:12,675

I thought about this again yesterday.

:

00:41:13,545 --> 00:41:18,105

I would say that my definition of

success is not just like being ha like

:

00:41:18,105 --> 00:41:20,175

reaching a point in your life where

you're just happy, like the majority

:

00:41:20,175 --> 00:41:23,815

of the time and able to go like, go

do fun things and enjoy yourself.

:

00:41:24,275 --> 00:41:29,795

Like I love my job and I love my patients,

and like a bad day at my job is like

:

00:41:29,795 --> 00:41:31,175

a good day at a lot of other places.

:

00:41:31,505 --> 00:41:33,035

So, you know, just enjoying.

:

00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,610

Your every day and having

more good days than bad days.

:

00:41:38,210 --> 00:41:38,720

All: I like that.

:

00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:39,680

Amanda: So, yes.

:

00:41:40,610 --> 00:41:43,520

Tyler: So since we're bringing on

returning guests, I can no longer

:

00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,430

ask to look backwards, see what

you would tell your younger self.

:

00:41:46,460 --> 00:41:46,580

Mm-hmm.

:

00:41:46,850 --> 00:41:50,300

But looking forward, what is the

next thing you want to accomplish?

:

00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:51,320

Amanda: Oh gosh.

:

00:41:51,470 --> 00:41:51,590

Dang.

:

00:41:53,255 --> 00:41:54,155

Tyler: That's good

:

00:41:54,355 --> 00:41:54,435

Amanda: question.

:

00:41:55,985 --> 00:41:57,785

I do still wanna make my own podcast.

:

00:41:59,315 --> 00:42:01,025

I think that'll be like a 20, 26 thing.

:

00:42:01,115 --> 00:42:01,805

Yeah, we'll see.

:

00:42:01,805 --> 00:42:02,555

I need to make the time for it.

:

00:42:02,555 --> 00:42:03,875

I have a note in my notes app.

:

00:42:05,015 --> 00:42:07,055

Starting to brainstorm, so,

so it's actually perfect

:

00:42:07,055 --> 00:42:10,415

Tyler: timing because you do, there is

like we, we went through this already.

:

00:42:10,415 --> 00:42:10,505

Yes.

:

00:42:10,505 --> 00:42:12,965

But the life for everyone else that's

watching, we were talking back and

:

00:42:12,965 --> 00:42:16,835

forth on Instagram, but there is

like a process that you need to go

:

00:42:16,835 --> 00:42:20,525

through to have everything set up

before you actually press record.

:

00:42:20,525 --> 00:42:20,645

Course.

:

00:42:20,645 --> 00:42:21,125

I copied and

:

00:42:21,125 --> 00:42:23,075

Amanda: pasted what you

sent into a notes app.

:

00:42:23,255 --> 00:42:23,675

Oh, nice.

:

00:42:24,665 --> 00:42:24,935

Yep.

:

00:42:24,935 --> 00:42:25,565

So we'll see.

:

00:42:25,565 --> 00:42:26,225

Maybe that'll happen.

:

00:42:26,225 --> 00:42:26,285

Hey.

:

00:42:26,775 --> 00:42:26,865

Well,

:

00:42:27,675 --> 00:42:32,035

All: and so we have some of our friends

of the podcast have done this where

:

00:42:32,035 --> 00:42:33,355

like, you don't do it all the time.

:

00:42:33,384 --> 00:42:33,654

Yeah.

:

00:42:33,660 --> 00:42:35,575

Like we do it consistently.

:

00:42:35,665 --> 00:42:35,785

Yep.

:

00:42:35,944 --> 00:42:39,875

And some people you, you can do

seasonal, you can do like once a

:

00:42:39,875 --> 00:42:42,335

month and you do what works for you.

:

00:42:42,335 --> 00:42:42,345

Okay.

:

00:42:42,345 --> 00:42:45,754

And you figure out like

what is the best thing?

:

00:42:45,845 --> 00:42:46,085

Yeah.

:

00:42:46,115 --> 00:42:47,705

We do it a bunch because we love it.

:

00:42:47,765 --> 00:42:47,975

Yeah.

:

00:42:47,975 --> 00:42:50,375

And we have the time to do it now.

:

00:42:50,734 --> 00:42:50,915

Mm-hmm.

:

00:42:51,104 --> 00:42:52,724

But if you're doing it.

:

00:42:53,539 --> 00:42:56,929

You don't know, you can do batches

and then make tweaks and kind of

:

00:42:56,929 --> 00:42:57,859

see like what people are doing.

:

00:42:57,859 --> 00:42:58,069

That's true.

:

00:42:58,184 --> 00:42:58,474

Okay.

:

00:42:58,524 --> 00:43:01,345

'Cause if you just book and do

like, hey, you know, let me do three

:

00:43:01,345 --> 00:43:03,085

hours at a time and just record.

:

00:43:03,115 --> 00:43:03,444

Yeah.

:

00:43:03,774 --> 00:43:06,654

Split 'em up into different topics

and then you can chop it up.

:

00:43:06,654 --> 00:43:06,865

And

:

00:43:06,955 --> 00:43:09,085

Tyler: I had someone else ask

me if I wanted to be a co-host

:

00:43:09,085 --> 00:43:10,464

to like, on another podcast.

:

00:43:10,464 --> 00:43:13,674

And I was like, the only way I'll

do it is if it's a monthly podcast

:

00:43:13,674 --> 00:43:15,384

and we still batch four in one day.

:

00:43:15,415 --> 00:43:15,625

Mm-hmm.

:

00:43:15,895 --> 00:43:16,855

So then I'll be good.

:

00:43:16,855 --> 00:43:17,240

That's a good way to do it.

:

00:43:17,350 --> 00:43:17,640

Yeah.

:

00:43:17,690 --> 00:43:18,805

Amanda: Uhhuh, I like that.

:

00:43:19,015 --> 00:43:20,725

Tyler: Or you don't have to do the edits.

:

00:43:21,565 --> 00:43:22,855

I'm also not doing the edits.

:

00:43:22,855 --> 00:43:24,140

That was already part of the conversation.

:

00:43:24,140 --> 00:43:24,595

How long does that

:

00:43:24,595 --> 00:43:25,405

Amanda: usually take you?

:

00:43:25,975 --> 00:43:27,835

Tyler: Not near as long with ai, but Okay.

:

00:43:27,895 --> 00:43:29,275

You either gonna spend time or money?

:

00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:29,780

Yes.

:

00:43:29,785 --> 00:43:30,925

And somewhere in between.

:

00:43:31,255 --> 00:43:35,805

So I opted for the LA latter half

of the Whiskey Wisdom podcast.

:

00:43:35,805 --> 00:43:37,725

I opted for money and not time.

:

00:43:38,175 --> 00:43:38,565

Yes.

:

00:43:38,835 --> 00:43:40,065

But yeah, at first it was all time.

:

00:43:40,065 --> 00:43:42,675

So it would take me like three, four

hours to like get everything done.

:

00:43:42,885 --> 00:43:46,065

Now it takes like 30

minutes for an hour podcast.

:

00:43:46,695 --> 00:43:46,995

So.

:

00:43:47,370 --> 00:43:50,730

All: See, one day we'll just

introduce like a podcast company.

:

00:43:51,210 --> 00:43:51,300

Mm-hmm.

:

00:43:51,540 --> 00:43:53,790

And everyone will just come

to us and we'll just edit it.

:

00:43:53,970 --> 00:43:54,120

Yeah.

:

00:43:54,180 --> 00:43:58,740

I feel like there is one in Wilmington

already, but probably there.

:

00:43:58,740 --> 00:43:59,790

Probably try money too.

:

00:43:59,820 --> 00:44:00,060

That be cool?

:

00:44:00,060 --> 00:44:00,120

Yeah.

:

00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:00,360

Yes.

:

00:44:00,570 --> 00:44:04,110

Hey, they could help you get

ads, help you get started.

:

00:44:04,110 --> 00:44:05,130

Mm-hmm.

:

00:44:05,131 --> 00:44:05,141

Mm-hmm.

:

00:44:05,375 --> 00:44:08,550

If you have any questions, message

me or Tyler, we'll help you out.

:

00:44:09,580 --> 00:44:09,970

But yeah.

:

00:44:10,660 --> 00:44:12,220

You wanna shout out your fun stuff?

:

00:44:12,220 --> 00:44:14,410

What's going on in life,

how they can follow you?

:

00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:14,950

Amanda: Sure.

:

00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,419

I have lots of Instagrams.

:

00:44:17,950 --> 00:44:20,020

:

00:44:29,805 --> 00:44:29,855

Mm-hmm.

00:44:35,845 --> 00:44:36,564

Tyler: Noise.

So Mina's really bored, as you

can tell, so bored, so much free

:

00:44:40,744 --> 00:44:41,104

Amanda: time.

:

00:44:43,504 --> 00:44:45,544

All: I always want to be

like, oh, let's go do more.

:

00:44:45,724 --> 00:44:47,164

Chris, you should do another Instagram.

:

00:44:47,164 --> 00:44:48,994

No, no.

:

00:44:49,084 --> 00:44:49,624

I don't know.

:

00:44:49,684 --> 00:44:50,434

I applaud you.

:

00:44:50,614 --> 00:44:50,944

Amanda: Thank you.

:

00:44:50,944 --> 00:44:50,974

I.

:

00:44:52,219 --> 00:44:52,729

Tyler: One day.

:

00:44:54,079 --> 00:44:54,199

Yeah.

:

00:44:54,199 --> 00:44:56,419

You're not the one where most

people are like, oh, I'm gonna

:

00:44:56,419 --> 00:44:58,789

do all these things and then they

just do like everything really bad.

:

00:44:58,999 --> 00:45:01,489

But like you actually chose like

the things that you wanna focus on.

:

00:45:01,489 --> 00:45:01,579

Yes.

:

00:45:01,579 --> 00:45:02,359

And you do them well.

:

00:45:03,109 --> 00:45:03,379

Amanda: Thank you.

:

00:45:03,379 --> 00:45:03,399

Thank you.

:

00:45:03,399 --> 00:45:04,129

I appreciate that.

:

00:45:04,129 --> 00:45:04,639

Absolutely.

:

00:45:04,639 --> 00:45:04,879

Yes.

:

00:45:04,879 --> 00:45:07,759

Tyler: So definitely an anomaly that

I'm sure a lot of people strive to be.

:

00:45:07,759 --> 00:45:08,109

So thank you.

:

00:45:08,214 --> 00:45:08,734

I applaud you for that.

:

00:45:08,794 --> 00:45:09,294

Amanda: Aw, thank you.

:

00:45:10,024 --> 00:45:10,454

Tyler: Thank you

:

00:45:10,999 --> 00:45:11,539

All: for coming on.

:

00:45:11,839 --> 00:45:12,799

Amanda: Yes, anytime.

:

00:45:12,799 --> 00:45:13,489

I love doing this.

:

00:45:14,449 --> 00:45:14,959

All: Perfect.

:

00:45:15,259 --> 00:45:19,399

We'll make you an honorary,

unofficial co-host.

:

00:45:19,564 --> 00:45:19,784

Yes.

:

00:45:22,009 --> 00:45:22,429

Don't worry.

:

00:45:22,490 --> 00:45:25,824

The first year we actually had some like

unofficial co-host 'cause pretty much

:

00:45:25,849 --> 00:45:29,059

I just couldn't show up and Well, no.

:

00:45:29,089 --> 00:45:32,539

'cause the first year we didn't

have like a set, it was just random.

:

00:45:32,569 --> 00:45:34,159

We'd be like, oh, we can do it today.

:

00:45:34,159 --> 00:45:34,519

Right.

:

00:45:34,519 --> 00:45:35,904

And I'm like, no, no.

:

00:45:35,944 --> 00:45:36,344

I have to work.

:

00:45:36,744 --> 00:45:37,399

I have plans.

:

00:45:37,399 --> 00:45:37,849

Yes.

:

00:45:37,950 --> 00:45:39,359

We need to get Palmer back home here,

:

00:45:40,319 --> 00:45:42,180

Tyler: or we can make

a trip out to Montana.

:

00:45:44,410 --> 00:45:44,490

All: Hmm.

:

00:45:45,615 --> 00:45:46,845

And then not on the list.

:

00:45:46,904 --> 00:45:50,895

I'm like, it's, it's in that

weird corner of the US where I'm

:

00:45:50,895 --> 00:45:52,935

just like, do I want to go here?

:

00:45:53,355 --> 00:45:53,595

Tyler: Yeah.

:

00:45:53,595 --> 00:45:55,125

I mean, we do it on top

of the mountain with him.

:

00:45:55,694 --> 00:45:56,145

All: Oh,

:

00:45:56,714 --> 00:45:56,805

Tyler: we

:

00:45:56,805 --> 00:45:56,985

All: could.

:

00:45:56,985 --> 00:45:57,194

That'd be

:

00:45:57,194 --> 00:45:57,645

Amanda: cool.

:

00:45:57,735 --> 00:45:58,035

All: Yeah.

:

00:45:58,065 --> 00:45:58,395

Yeah.

:

00:45:59,085 --> 00:45:59,535

As long as he

:

00:45:59,535 --> 00:46:01,935

Tyler: shows me how to like

hunt with a bow, I'm down.

:

00:46:02,235 --> 00:46:04,395

I'm sure he could show you

how to hunt with anything that

:

00:46:04,395 --> 00:46:05,415

you would want to these days.

:

00:46:05,505 --> 00:46:06,525

Have you seen his Instagram?

:

00:46:06,585 --> 00:46:07,275

Yes.

:

00:46:07,395 --> 00:46:08,174

He's a good find.
