It's part 82 00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:14.520 of the process of learning who you are. 83 00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:16.080 This is why I was right. 84 00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.039 I'm hearing you talk to Michael Monks about the mouthfelt of. 85 00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:28.280 The feel there is there, Okay, so con never there 86 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:34.919 are certain characteristics of ice cream that make that unique mouthfield. 87 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:42.919 If it's too creamy, then it's it disappears. There has 88 00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:46.199 to be a tiny amount of in my mind, a 89 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.439 little bit of grit to and there is. Sometimes it's 90 00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:51.080 the sugar something. 91 00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:56.400 You want to know that the ice cream has spent 92 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:58.159 some time out on the streets.

I mean, 96 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.560 not growing in the cracks and sideway necessarily. 97 00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:08.159 But but did they fall off a turn up truck 98 00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:10.919 in the middle of the Vada pot Maybe maybe possibly, 99 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.639 But they're good, they were so fresh, these strawberries. 100 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:15.840 What kind of cream are you guys using Okay. 101 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.360 So the recipe is of course proprietary, because you're already 102 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:21.040 I'm gonna tell you the last time we made it, 103 00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:23.160 we just used heavy cream and sugar to kind of 104 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:27.199 get the base. We switched those two items out and 105 00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.639 have switched to condensed milk and it changed the whole game. 106 00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.879 And we made a homemade jam and swirled it into 107 00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:35.480 the middle of it. 108 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:41.079 Are you gonna get a little bit of a swirly 109 00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:46.040 the have you?

It said that they were 197 00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.720 determined to find a way out. They said they'd fallen 198 00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.600 into a rut sexually. One of the things they did 199 00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:53.320 was they explored celibacy for several months to try to 200 00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.039 just alleviate the pressure that they felt to Oh, that's 201 00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:56.879 a red flag. 202 00:08:57.480 --> 00:08:59.360 They also said, well. 203 00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:02.399 We're we're rut sexually. Let's just not have do it. 204 00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:06.159 But they suggested trying sleeping in different She suggested they 205 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:08.159 sleep in different rooms. She said it would give them 206 00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:12.000 the opportunity to have restorative solitude at the end. 207 00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:12.360 Of each day. 208 00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:15.360 This is all red flag land. 209 00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.679 But she says, the moment we separated the bedrooms, it 210 00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:21.240 was more fun, like do you want to come to 211 00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:23.639 my room tonight? Or can I come to your room tonight. 212 00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:27.679 Now they spend most of their evenings unwinding with their 213 00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:32.159 daughter before they then retreat to their separate bedrooms. Okay, 214 00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.279 some nights they just cuddle. Other nights they do this. 215 00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:40.840 I thought you were going to do that. You don't 216 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:43.799 have to do that more often, she says, they find 217 00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:47.720 themselves doing it. You know it at other times, like 218 00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:49.559 in the morning or on the weekend when their daughter 219 00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:53.399 is visiting grandparents. So it worked out, she says, Now 220 00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:55.759 there's zero pressure around any of it. 221 00:09:57.679 --> 00:10:03.600 Do you ever feel pressure to to perform? Listen? WHOA no, 222 00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:07.679 And I never want to hear you use that word again. 223 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.960 I listen. I'm coming from a place of not judging, 224 00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:14.639 just because every relationship is different, and I think that 225 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:18.159 a lot of people think that it's normal to have 226 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:21.039 sex this amount of times a week or a month 227 00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:23.080 or a year or what have you. Everyone has their 228 00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:25.679 idea of what they think is normal, and I think 229 00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:28.519 closer to the truth is it's different for everybody, and 230 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.759 whatever works for you works whatever, as long as you're happy. 231 00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:37.320 But I had there were times when my wife would 232 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.360 be stressed out from work or something like that, or 233 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.399 concerned that she was her being awake was going to 234 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:48.679 keep me awake. Would it be more restorative to use 235 00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:51.799 that woman's word for her to sleep somewhere else or 236 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:54.039 for me to sleep in the other room something like that. 237 00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.840 And I hated the idea for selfish reasons. I mean, 238 00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:59.720 if it was gonna work, it would be great. No, no, 239 00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:04.279 not is that, But the idea that it was again, 240 00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:06.600 it's it was completely selfish reasons. 241 00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:09.639 I want to appear like the marriage works. 242 00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:13.039 And if there's somebody sleeping in the op or in 243 00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.320 a different room, to me, that's a that's a bad sign. 244 00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:19.679 That's an indicator that something's not going right. It's not. 245 00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:22.960 But I'm saying in my mind, from my. 246 00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:25.320 Filter, and I understand that. But wait till your wife 247 00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:29.039 starts snoring like a wart hog. She would never I 248 00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:34.519 mean it, it happens. It happens with people. And then 249 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.679 entering like a ward is a warthog, even a thing 250 00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.679 a warthog is real. Okay, I don't know if they 251 00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.960 I would imagine they make a lot of noises. But 252 00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:48.519 it's not about your wife. It's about the fact that 253 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:53.240 when my husband snores, which it's very rare, he's actually, 254 00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:54.759 I think, trained himself out of it. 255 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:56.039 But he's afraid of you. 256 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:58.720 I can understand if somebody in the marriage snores, it 257 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:00.679 could be me, I could be a I don't know. 258 00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:04.399 But then it's it's problematic because then you're not getting 259 00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:06.519 your sleep, and then you get cranky, and then you're pissed, 260 00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:07.600 and then it's bad for everything. 261 00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:08.120 That's bad. 262 00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:10.000 Help I mean, he'll like, it's not that you're pissed 263 00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:11.679 at the other person. They can't control the fact that 264 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:15.039 they snore or whatever. They're sleeping on their back and 265 00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:16.639 not on their side or what have you. It's not 266 00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:20.039 like a character flaw. It's just it is what it is. 267 00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.960 And if you don't get your requisite amount of sleep, 268 00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:26.080 you're probably not going to be in sexy time moved. 269 00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:30.480 I guess, Hey, Gary and Shannon, it's Ed and Florida. 270 00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:32.879 My wife and I have a sleeping the separate beds 271 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:36.279 for probably six years now even more because she has 272 00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:39.720 to have a television on and I will go nuts 273 00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:40.279 with the TV on. 274 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:43.759 My sisters like that all night long, but we get along. 275 00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:46.399 Well, what have you about it?

I slept with the TV on. 284 00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:06.639 It would help me go to sleep, and then early 285 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:08.600 in my early twenties i'd sleep at the TV. And 286 00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:10.879 then I kind of got over it. But if you 287 00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:13.320 have a hard time going to sleep, sometimes just having 288 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:16.320 something on falling asleep to something interesting at least in 289 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:17.120 your head is helpful. 290 00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.679 I would just be terror I'd be listening to the show. 291 00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:22.360 I thought, what I mean, I would be listening to what. 292 00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:24.240 I'd be trying to figure out what's going on on 293 00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:24.600 the show. 294 00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:29.440 Oh yeah, yeah, I go to sleep some meditations sometimes. 295 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:33.240 Uh my wife found a podcast and it's not a 296 00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:36.240 podcast of this show, but it's something called something like 297 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:40.279 Nothing's going On or Nothing's Happening, Yeah, something like that, 298 00:13:40.679 --> 00:13:43.480 And it's just someone talking.

If you remember, 338 00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:44.200 he was hired for a three month term at a 339 00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:47.799 salary of five hundred thousand to be funded by nonprofits. 340 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.480 He said, you know what, keep the money, I'll work 341 00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:54.200 for free. Because everybody said, well, if you got five 342 00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:56.639 hundred thousand to give him, why don't you use it 343 00:15:56.679 --> 00:16:00.879 on fire recovery. Anyway, he was initially tasked with coming 344 00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:03.799 up with some sort of a strategy, comprehensive strategy for 345 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:08.000 the rebuilding process, the recovery process, and he told the 346 00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:12.080 La Times quote, they haven't asked me to do anything 347 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:15.360 in a month and a half, nothing, zero, exactly. 348 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:18.039 He's shedding a light on what happens all of the 349 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:21.519 timing government.

So there's we're going to 355 00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:37.320 hire Steve Sobroff and everything's gonna be fine, and then 356 00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:40.440 everybody moves about their day when the city is not 357 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.600 actually going to do anything. They're just throwing money at 358 00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:45.120 the optics of the problem. 359 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:48.320 It's interesting. He does say that there were some things 360 00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:51.120 that he did do. He said he helped coordinate some 361 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:55.879 of the FEMA organizational work, the Army Corps engineers work. 362 00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:57.240 We picked up the phone and made a couple of 363 00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:00.720 calls well. He brought in mental health experts. He helped 364 00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.360 broke her a deal so that the high school could temporary, 365 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:06.759 temporarily relocate to an old That was Steve sober Off. 366 00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:09.359 That wasn't the city saying, hey, we should do this 367 00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:11.039 or we should do that.
