1
00:01:10,766 --> 00:01:12,246
Hello, Laura, Ms. Ross.
2
00:01:12,420 --> 00:01:13,856
Good morning, hello.
3
00:01:14,030 --> 00:01:15,190
Can I take your coat for you?
4
00:01:15,292 --> 00:01:16,467
Oh, no thank you.
5
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:19,469
Of course.
6
00:01:19,557 --> 00:01:20,863
And how 'bout a coffee?
7
00:01:21,037 --> 00:01:22,299
How would you like your coffee?
8
00:01:22,473 --> 00:01:23,257
I can get you
whatever you'd like.
9
00:01:23,431 --> 00:01:24,431
Anything to eat?
10
00:01:26,347 --> 00:01:27,870
Thank you, I can
get my own coffee.
11
00:01:28,044 --> 00:01:29,350
- Hey, Jasmine?
- Mm hm?
12
00:01:29,524 --> 00:01:30,844
Hey, I think we're fine in here.
13
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:32,396
Do you mind checking
in my studio
14
00:01:32,570 --> 00:01:33,721
and seeing if they
need any help in there?
15
00:01:33,745 --> 00:01:35,225
- Yes, Sir.
- Okay.
16
00:01:35,399 --> 00:01:36,096
Hey, what did I say
about calling me sir?
17
00:01:36,270 --> 00:01:37,271
Not to do it.
18
00:01:37,445 --> 00:01:38,565
I should just call you Paul.
19
00:01:38,663 --> 00:01:39,708
- Exactly.
- Yes, Sir.
20
00:01:39,882 --> 00:01:40,578
You're right.
21
00:01:40,752 --> 00:01:41,752
So sorry.
22
00:01:45,017 --> 00:01:46,062
She's a good kid.
23
00:01:46,235 --> 00:01:47,803
She's very excited to be here.
24
00:01:49,283 --> 00:01:50,283
Who is she?
25
00:01:50,414 --> 00:01:51,502
Should I know who she is?
26
00:01:51,676 --> 00:01:53,113
I'm usually very
good with faces.
27
00:01:53,287 --> 00:01:54,351
Oh no, that's our
new intern, Jasmine.
28
00:01:54,375 --> 00:01:55,854
It's her first day.
29
00:01:56,027 --> 00:01:57,682
I thought I was losing my touch.
30
00:01:57,856 --> 00:01:59,336
Nah, still got it.
31
00:02:02,818 --> 00:02:04,080
All right, you ready in there?
32
00:02:04,254 --> 00:02:05,908
Let's start talkin'.
33
00:02:06,082 --> 00:02:08,780
Okay, we are on in five, four.
34
00:02:11,348 --> 00:02:12,915
Hello ladies,
35
00:02:13,089 --> 00:02:15,004
and any of you modern
thinking men out there.
36
00:02:15,178 --> 00:02:16,571
Welcome to another episode
37
00:02:16,745 --> 00:02:18,114
of the "Modernly
Independent" with me,
38
00:02:18,138 --> 00:02:19,922
your host, Laura Ross.
39
00:02:20,096 --> 00:02:21,880
If this is your
first time listening,
40
00:02:22,054 --> 00:02:24,163
this is the podcast where we
discuss life as a modern woman
41
00:02:24,187 --> 00:02:25,797
and how you don't
need anyone's help
42
00:02:25,971 --> 00:02:27,495
to do what you
wanna do or to get
43
00:02:27,669 --> 00:02:30,237
where you wanna be in
your life and career.
44
00:02:30,411 --> 00:02:32,543
As always, I'm joined
by my dearest friend
45
00:02:32,716 --> 00:02:34,545
and producer, Paul.
46
00:02:34,719 --> 00:02:36,765
Hello, hello and
good morning, Laura.
47
00:02:36,939 --> 00:02:38,941
You're looking lovely as always.
48
00:02:39,115 --> 00:02:39,942
Ah, thank you.
49
00:02:40,116 --> 00:02:41,248
How are you doing today?
50
00:02:41,422 --> 00:02:42,988
I'm doin' well, thank you.
51
00:02:43,163 --> 00:02:45,861
I think I'm finally
recovered from last week.
52
00:02:46,035 --> 00:02:47,035
That's right.
53
00:02:47,123 --> 00:02:48,559
Last time we were here,
54
00:02:48,733 --> 00:02:50,058
we were getting ready
for Thanksgiving.
55
00:02:50,082 --> 00:02:52,433
And what a Thanksgiving it was.
56
00:02:52,607 --> 00:02:54,043
I had people over to my house
57
00:02:54,216 --> 00:02:55,827
and in true "Modern
Independent" fashion
58
00:02:56,001 --> 00:02:59,048
I made the entire meal
entirely by myself.
59
00:02:59,222 --> 00:03:01,877
So, I'm gonna ask you, and
I want you to be honest.
60
00:03:02,051 --> 00:03:03,270
- Whew.
- Paul?
61
00:03:03,444 --> 00:03:05,576
- Okay.
- What did you think?
62
00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:07,143
I ate myself into a coma
63
00:03:07,317 --> 00:03:08,729
if that's what you're asking.
64
00:03:08,753 --> 00:03:10,233
That is what I'm asking.
65
00:03:10,407 --> 00:03:12,017
Great.
66
00:03:12,192 --> 00:03:13,647
I made all of the Thanksgiving
goodies this year.
67
00:03:13,671 --> 00:03:15,673
So Paul, are you
ready for a game of,
68
00:03:15,847 --> 00:03:17,153
Name It!
69
00:03:19,286 --> 00:03:21,351
For those of you who are
new listeners to the show,
70
00:03:21,375 --> 00:03:23,942
Name It is a quick
fire rapid challenge
71
00:03:24,116 --> 00:03:26,945
where we try to name single
items within a category.
72
00:03:27,119 --> 00:03:30,166
Today's category is
Thanksgiving food items.
73
00:03:30,340 --> 00:03:31,559
Laura, go!
74
00:03:31,733 --> 00:03:32,995
- Turkey.
- Tofurky.
75
00:03:33,168 --> 00:03:34,277
- Mashed potatoes.
- Green beans.
76
00:03:34,301 --> 00:03:35,563
- Yams.
- Apple pie.
77
00:03:35,737 --> 00:03:36,825
- Salad.
- Mac and cheese.
78
00:03:36,999 --> 00:03:38,653
- Pecan pie.
- Potatoes.
79
00:03:38,827 --> 00:03:40,263
Green bean casserole.
80
00:03:40,437 --> 00:03:42,004
A tuna fish sandwich.
81
00:03:43,310 --> 00:03:45,050
I don't think that counts.
82
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:48,184
I don't know why
I said tuna fish sandwich.
83
00:03:48,358 --> 00:03:50,099
You know, in fairness,
84
00:03:50,273 --> 00:03:52,295
I did have a sandwich that
afternoon before I came over
85
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:53,885
to your house for
that lovely dinner
86
00:03:54,059 --> 00:03:56,323
because I was scared that I
would get full too quickly,
87
00:03:56,497 --> 00:03:57,846
so I wanted to
expand my stomach.
88
00:03:58,020 --> 00:03:59,108
You pre-game.
89
00:03:59,281 --> 00:04:00,675
Mm hm, I'm quite the pre-gamer
90
00:04:00,849 --> 00:04:02,285
when it comes to eating, yes.
91
00:04:02,459 --> 00:04:04,461
I don't, I just wait.
92
00:04:04,635 --> 00:04:06,811
But given that that's
not an actual answer
93
00:04:06,985 --> 00:04:08,291
for a Thanksgiving food item,
94
00:04:08,465 --> 00:04:10,641
I am going to award
you the point.
95
00:04:10,815 --> 00:04:11,966
Of course you are, thank you.
96
00:04:11,990 --> 00:04:13,514
You're so generous.
97
00:04:13,688 --> 00:04:16,473
For any of you listeners
out there, you can do this.
98
00:04:17,692 --> 00:04:20,346
It takes a lot of time
and a lot of hard work,
99
00:04:20,521 --> 00:04:22,523
but I felt so
accomplished in the end.
100
00:04:22,697 --> 00:04:24,220
Having done it myself,
101
00:04:24,394 --> 00:04:25,545
I think it made the food
taste that much better.
102
00:04:25,569 --> 00:04:26,875
And you can take this mindset
103
00:04:27,049 --> 00:04:29,138
to all other aspects
of your life.
104
00:04:29,312 --> 00:04:31,358
I am getting the
signal from my producer
105
00:04:31,532 --> 00:04:34,056
that it's time to listen to a
few words from our sponsors.
106
00:04:34,230 --> 00:04:35,840
And when we come back,
107
00:04:36,014 --> 00:04:38,582
we're gonna be reading
your comments and emails.
108
00:04:41,368 --> 00:04:42,064
Good show today.
109
00:04:42,238 --> 00:04:43,500
Oh, you too.
110
00:04:43,674 --> 00:04:44,674
Thanks.
111
00:04:45,546 --> 00:04:48,636
So, we've got something
to talk about.
112
00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:51,508
Oh, that sounds serious.
113
00:04:51,682 --> 00:04:52,509
Good news.
114
00:04:52,683 --> 00:04:55,033
Well possible good news.
115
00:04:55,207 --> 00:04:56,774
Okay, hit me.
116
00:04:56,948 --> 00:04:58,515
Okay, so you know
how we've been doing
117
00:04:58,689 --> 00:05:00,430
this podcast for
the last few years,
118
00:05:00,604 --> 00:05:02,693
and so far things
have been really good?
119
00:05:02,867 --> 00:05:04,478
Mm hm.
120
00:05:04,652 --> 00:05:05,435
We've had great reviews
and a steady increase
121
00:05:05,609 --> 00:05:07,132
in our listenership,
122
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:10,571
but a few months ago
it's sort of plateaued.
123
00:05:13,443 --> 00:05:15,053
Okay.
124
00:05:15,227 --> 00:05:18,274
We can drum up some ideas
to get more listeners.
125
00:05:18,448 --> 00:05:21,973
Right, well, I
might have a solution.
126
00:05:22,147 --> 00:05:23,734
You know how we were
talking about reaching out
127
00:05:23,758 --> 00:05:25,803
to one of those bigger
podcast networks?
128
00:05:25,977 --> 00:05:30,068
Yeah, wider audience,
more advertising revenue.
129
00:05:30,242 --> 00:05:31,482
But I thought we were too small
130
00:05:31,592 --> 00:05:33,028
for them to take us seriously.
131
00:05:33,202 --> 00:05:35,073
Well, I reached
out to a few of them.
132
00:05:35,247 --> 00:05:36,771
I sent off some
links and one of 'em
133
00:05:36,945 --> 00:05:39,426
just got back to me saying
we might be the perfect fit
134
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,819
to fill a void in their
female demographic.
135
00:05:41,993 --> 00:05:43,473
Are you serious?
136
00:05:43,647 --> 00:05:45,432
It's nothing concrete
yet by any means,
137
00:05:45,606 --> 00:05:49,218
but you know, they're gonna
be taking an extra look at us.
138
00:05:50,045 --> 00:05:51,045
That's great.
139
00:05:51,133 --> 00:05:53,004
Yeah.
140
00:05:53,178 --> 00:05:55,459
So, I was thinking that since
we're starting off December,
141
00:05:55,572 --> 00:05:58,706
it would be really fun to
come up with a cool idea
142
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,578
to engage the listeners
for the rest of the month.
143
00:06:01,752 --> 00:06:03,537
Okay.
144
00:06:03,711 --> 00:06:05,428
We have the award show buzz
with all the female nominees
145
00:06:05,452 --> 00:06:07,018
and the progress being made.
146
00:06:07,192 --> 00:06:09,586
Right, which is great but
I was thinking this year,
147
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,066
it might be cool to do something
148
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,416
a little bit more Christmas-y.
149
00:06:16,463 --> 00:06:19,335
I like Christmas as
much as the next person.
150
00:06:19,509 --> 00:06:20,815
Oh, do you now?
151
00:06:20,989 --> 00:06:23,207
Unless the next
person is literally you.
152
00:06:23,383 --> 00:06:24,688
Thank you.
153
00:06:24,862 --> 00:06:26,187
I mean, I like
me some Christmas.
154
00:06:26,211 --> 00:06:27,996
- Yeah.
- But don't we have
155
00:06:28,170 --> 00:06:29,824
enough of it out there?
156
00:06:29,998 --> 00:06:31,434
Oh, as opposed to the lack
157
00:06:31,608 --> 00:06:33,436
of Hollywood awards
coverage out there?
158
00:06:33,610 --> 00:06:35,525
- Oh, oh good point.
- Yeah.
159
00:06:35,699 --> 00:06:37,397
Did you have any ideas?
160
00:06:37,571 --> 00:06:41,444
No, nothing certain yet,
but I'm marinating on it.
161
00:06:41,618 --> 00:06:43,620
Big things to come, I promise.
162
00:06:43,794 --> 00:06:44,882
Hey, congrats.
163
00:06:45,056 --> 00:06:45,753
This is a really
good first step.
164
00:06:45,927 --> 00:06:47,668
Yeah.
165
00:06:47,842 --> 00:06:51,976
Okay, so we will think about
it and we will talk later.
166
00:06:52,150 --> 00:06:55,980
Right now I've got to
meet Mary for lunch.
167
00:06:56,154 --> 00:06:57,994
Oh, that's funny, I'm
meeting Erik for lunch.
168
00:06:58,069 --> 00:06:59,810
Do you think it's
the same place?
169
00:06:59,984 --> 00:07:01,551
Who knows?
170
00:07:01,725 --> 00:07:03,311
But if it is, it certainly
isn't a coincidence.
171
00:07:03,335 --> 00:07:04,735
They're one of those
perfect couples
172
00:07:04,815 --> 00:07:06,643
who tell each other everything.
173
00:07:06,817 --> 00:07:08,471
Something we can
all strive for, right?
174
00:07:08,645 --> 00:07:09,645
Right.
175
00:07:12,388 --> 00:07:14,303
- Oh, Jasmine?
- Yes, Ma'am?
176
00:07:14,477 --> 00:07:15,652
Hi.
177
00:07:15,826 --> 00:07:17,132
You can call me Laura.
178
00:07:17,306 --> 00:07:18,544
I just want to
officially meet you
179
00:07:18,568 --> 00:07:19,743
and welcome you to the team.
180
00:07:24,792 --> 00:07:26,271
Thanks for meeting me today.
181
00:07:26,446 --> 00:07:28,665
I love having a
lunch date with you.
182
00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:30,362
Me too.
183
00:07:30,537 --> 00:07:32,428
But it sounded like there
was something important.
184
00:07:32,452 --> 00:07:33,975
Did you want to talk about it?
185
00:07:34,149 --> 00:07:35,498
Yes.
186
00:07:35,672 --> 00:07:38,893
So, I'm not sure if you noticed,
187
00:07:39,067 --> 00:07:40,677
you probably didn't notice
188
00:07:40,851 --> 00:07:42,655
because you were a little
busy at Thanksgiving,
189
00:07:42,679 --> 00:07:44,701
running around, handling
everything yourself and all.
190
00:07:44,725 --> 00:07:45,856
Okay, I get it.
191
00:07:46,030 --> 00:07:47,467
Go on.
192
00:07:47,641 --> 00:07:50,644
So, I wasn't drinking
at Thanksgiving,
193
00:07:52,297 --> 00:07:55,387
and there's a very
wonderful reason for that.
194
00:07:55,562 --> 00:07:56,882
Oh my goodness, you're pregnant.
195
00:07:57,999 --> 00:07:58,999
A baby?
196
00:07:59,130 --> 00:08:00,697
Oh, that's awesome!
197
00:08:00,871 --> 00:08:02,022
You are gonna be like
the best dad ever, man.
198
00:08:02,046 --> 00:08:03,352
Thanks, man.
199
00:08:03,526 --> 00:08:04,832
It's still a little early,
200
00:08:05,006 --> 00:08:06,200
but we wanted to
make sure we told
201
00:08:06,224 --> 00:08:07,269
you and Laura first thing.
202
00:08:07,443 --> 00:08:09,053
Wow!
203
00:08:09,227 --> 00:08:10,683
So, that's what Laura and
Mary's lunch is about.
204
00:08:10,707 --> 00:08:13,580
Well, that and we wanted to know
205
00:08:13,754 --> 00:08:15,756
if you and Laura would
be the godparents.
206
00:08:15,930 --> 00:08:16,757
Yes!
207
00:08:16,931 --> 00:08:18,106
Are you kidding me?
208
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,280
Yes.
209
00:08:19,324 --> 00:08:20,717
That would be...
210
00:08:20,891 --> 00:08:22,719
Oh man, that would
be such an honor.
211
00:08:22,893 --> 00:08:24,025
Wow.
212
00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:26,897
"I'm gonna be a godfather."
213
00:08:27,071 --> 00:08:28,508
Don't do that again, please.
214
00:08:29,465 --> 00:08:30,684
- No promises.
- I know.
215
00:08:31,685 --> 00:08:33,121
"I'm the godmother."
216
00:08:34,426 --> 00:08:36,385
Please, don't do that again.
217
00:08:36,558 --> 00:08:38,082
No promises.
218
00:08:38,256 --> 00:08:39,936
In fact I can guarantee
I will do it again.
219
00:08:40,389 --> 00:08:41,216
Please don't change your mind.
220
00:08:41,390 --> 00:08:43,131
Never.
221
00:08:43,304 --> 00:08:45,481
I couldn't think of
anyone else I'd rather.
222
00:08:45,655 --> 00:08:47,265
I'm so excited for you.
223
00:08:47,439 --> 00:08:48,919
And for me, actually.
224
00:08:49,093 --> 00:08:51,182
I'm just a little sad
225
00:08:51,356 --> 00:08:53,445
that we aren't gonna
be pregnant together.
226
00:08:53,620 --> 00:08:54,925
Are you kidding me?
227
00:08:55,099 --> 00:08:56,623
Do you think the
world could handle
228
00:08:56,797 --> 00:08:57,275
both of us being pregnant
at the same time?
229
00:08:57,449 --> 00:08:58,450
Yes.
230
00:08:58,625 --> 00:09:00,148
With you I can only imagine.
231
00:09:00,322 --> 00:09:02,411
You know, our kids could
be pretty close in age
232
00:09:02,585 --> 00:09:05,109
if you'd go ahead and
get hitched already.
233
00:09:05,283 --> 00:09:07,242
I'm not even dating anyone.
234
00:09:08,286 --> 00:09:09,549
You could be.
235
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:12,980
You know, I always
thought it'd be fun
236
00:09:13,117 --> 00:09:15,337
if you and I had kids
around the same time.
237
00:09:15,511 --> 00:09:17,600
You know, they could be
on the same baseball team.
238
00:09:17,774 --> 00:09:20,429
They could ride bikes to school
together, stuff like that.
239
00:09:20,603 --> 00:09:22,257
I'm one very key ingredient away
240
00:09:22,431 --> 00:09:23,693
from making that a reality.
241
00:09:24,955 --> 00:09:26,522
Why don't you just ask her out?
242
00:09:26,696 --> 00:09:27,696
Who?
243
00:09:28,785 --> 00:09:30,091
Laura.
244
00:09:30,265 --> 00:09:31,614
Oh, come on man, you know Laura.
245
00:09:31,788 --> 00:09:34,574
I do know Laura, and I know you,
246
00:09:34,748 --> 00:09:36,750
and I know you two are
perfect for each other.
247
00:09:38,316 --> 00:09:39,753
You're in love with each other,
248
00:09:39,927 --> 00:09:41,487
but neither of you
is gonna make a move.
249
00:09:41,581 --> 00:09:43,321
With her being Miss
"Modern Independent,"
250
00:09:43,495 --> 00:09:45,715
I can hardly imagine that
she'd want me to ask her out,
251
00:09:45,889 --> 00:09:47,630
and she clearly doesn't
see me that way.
252
00:09:47,804 --> 00:09:50,328
So, while you're probably right,
253
00:09:50,502 --> 00:09:51,782
I also really love
our friendship
254
00:09:51,939 --> 00:09:53,133
and I don't wanna mess that up,
255
00:09:53,157 --> 00:09:54,855
so it's probably for the best.
256
00:09:56,247 --> 00:09:58,510
He's my producer and my friend.
257
00:09:58,685 --> 00:09:59,729
That's it.
258
00:09:59,903 --> 00:10:01,862
That doesn't have to be it.
259
00:10:02,036 --> 00:10:04,038
If he was interested,
he would ask me out.
260
00:10:04,212 --> 00:10:05,300
You think so?
261
00:10:05,474 --> 00:10:06,736
Really?
262
00:10:06,910 --> 00:10:08,433
He knows you better than anyone.
263
00:10:08,608 --> 00:10:12,394
You think he would ask Miss
"Modernly Independent?"
264
00:10:12,568 --> 00:10:15,702
Yes, that's me,
but I'm also a girl
265
00:10:15,876 --> 00:10:19,575
and I'd like to be treated
like a lady and romanced.
266
00:10:19,749 --> 00:10:21,709
Besides, I don't wanna
risk losing our friendship.
267
00:10:21,838 --> 00:10:23,492
Some risks are worth taking.
268
00:10:25,363 --> 00:10:26,843
Let's be done talking about me.
269
00:10:27,017 --> 00:10:28,410
Let's raise a...
270
00:10:29,629 --> 00:10:33,720
Let's raise a fry to you
and me having a baby.
271
00:10:33,894 --> 00:10:37,245
Well, actually it's me and Erik
272
00:10:37,419 --> 00:10:40,552
that are having-
To you and me having a baby.
273
00:10:43,207 --> 00:10:44,339
To havin' a baby.
274
00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:47,951
We got nine months
to prepare ourselves
275
00:10:48,125 --> 00:10:49,649
for the adventure that awaits.
276
00:10:51,389 --> 00:10:53,740
What's all this "We"
and "Us" talk?
277
00:10:53,914 --> 00:10:55,567
I'm this kid's godparent,
278
00:10:55,742 --> 00:10:58,309
and that is a role I plan
to take very seriously.
279
00:11:01,399 --> 00:11:03,663
To us molding the future.
280
00:11:07,362 --> 00:11:08,687
You know, we could have
toasted without drinks
281
00:11:08,711 --> 00:11:10,191
like normal people, right?
282
00:11:10,365 --> 00:11:11,777
Oh, you think I'm
gonna let my godchild
283
00:11:11,801 --> 00:11:13,411
be raised like a normal person?
284
00:11:13,585 --> 00:11:14,585
Not a chance.
285
00:11:16,197 --> 00:11:18,199
I knew this was
gonna be a mistake.
286
00:11:19,548 --> 00:11:20,897
I can feel that.
287
00:11:21,071 --> 00:11:22,309
You know, I have a
ton of baby names
288
00:11:22,333 --> 00:11:23,639
for you whenever you're ready.
289
00:11:23,813 --> 00:11:26,555
Oh, that's so kind of you,
290
00:11:26,729 --> 00:11:29,166
but I think Erik and now can
take care of this on our own.
291
00:11:29,340 --> 00:11:31,778
Okay, so I'll write
him down for later then.
292
00:11:31,952 --> 00:11:33,257
- Ladies.
- Hey.
293
00:11:33,431 --> 00:11:34,539
- Mary, a hot cocoa for you.
- Oo.
294
00:11:34,563 --> 00:11:35,695
Thank you, babe.
295
00:11:37,218 --> 00:11:38,218
Oh,
296
00:11:39,263 --> 00:11:40,588
well, do you think
I'd be bold enough
297
00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:42,789
to get Miss "Modern Independent"
298
00:11:42,963 --> 00:11:45,226
a drink and deprive her
of getting one herself?
299
00:11:46,793 --> 00:11:48,446
Okay.
300
00:11:48,620 --> 00:11:50,753
Well speaking of that, we
should get back to work.
301
00:11:50,927 --> 00:11:52,755
Bye.
302
00:11:52,929 --> 00:11:54,148
- Gimme a call.
- Okay.
303
00:11:54,322 --> 00:11:54,975
- Yeah, gimme a call.
- Okay.
304
00:11:55,149 --> 00:11:56,149
Nice work.
305
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,280
Y'all have a good show.
306
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:01,827
How'd it go?
307
00:12:01,851 --> 00:12:03,548
No luck on my end.
308
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:06,464
She didn't say no, but
she's waiting for him.
309
00:12:06,638 --> 00:12:08,038
He's waiting for her.
310
00:12:08,162 --> 00:12:09,946
So, what do we do?
311
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,037
Now, I think we need to
take this into our own hands.
312
00:12:14,211 --> 00:12:15,691
Hm, what do you have in mind?
313
00:12:15,865 --> 00:12:17,451
Well, we've got our
work cut out for us,
314
00:12:17,475 --> 00:12:19,739
but this is gonna be really fun.
315
00:12:50,073 --> 00:12:51,509
This is gonna be so much fun.
316
00:12:53,381 --> 00:12:55,165
Oh!
317
00:13:07,525 --> 00:13:09,310
What are you doin' in here?
318
00:13:09,484 --> 00:13:11,312
Working.
319
00:13:11,486 --> 00:13:13,203
Don't you have your
own office to do that in?
320
00:13:13,227 --> 00:13:14,924
Yes, but I don't
have a comfy couch
321
00:13:15,098 --> 00:13:18,798
in my office and
you're not there.
322
00:13:18,972 --> 00:13:20,887
Yeah, 'cause I'm
working in my office.
323
00:13:22,279 --> 00:13:24,325
How was your lunch
with Mary yesterday?
324
00:13:25,239 --> 00:13:26,980
Good.
325
00:13:27,154 --> 00:13:30,157
How was your lunch
with Erik yesterday?
326
00:13:31,375 --> 00:13:32,375
Good.
327
00:13:33,725 --> 00:13:34,833
"They made me
328
00:13:34,857 --> 00:13:36,032
an offer I couldn't refuse."
329
00:13:36,206 --> 00:13:37,251
What are you doing?
330
00:13:37,425 --> 00:13:38,687
Uh, Brando, "The Godfather."
331
00:13:38,861 --> 00:13:40,602
What are you doing?
332
00:13:40,776 --> 00:13:42,188
I think it's pretty obvious
what I'm doing.
333
00:13:42,212 --> 00:13:43,605
We're gonna be godparents!
334
00:13:43,779 --> 00:13:44,867
Yes!
335
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,320
You gotta work on your Brando.
336
00:13:46,434 --> 00:13:47,434
Yeah, sure.
337
00:13:47,565 --> 00:13:48,871
Okay.
338
00:13:49,045 --> 00:13:50,525
Well, in other news,
339
00:13:50,699 --> 00:13:52,396
I think I may have stumbled upon
340
00:13:52,570 --> 00:13:55,312
the perfect Christmas
idea for the podcast.
341
00:13:55,486 --> 00:13:58,359
That's funny, so did I.
342
00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:00,056
- Really?
- Yeah.
343
00:14:00,230 --> 00:14:01,753
You first.
344
00:14:01,928 --> 00:14:03,862
Well, I got an email from
a listener this morning
345
00:14:03,886 --> 00:14:05,496
and it suggested that we do the,
346
00:14:05,670 --> 00:14:07,324
Christmas Challenge.
347
00:14:07,498 --> 00:14:09,587
Yep, well, this listener
must have doubled down
348
00:14:09,761 --> 00:14:11,459
because I got the
same exact email.
349
00:14:12,677 --> 00:14:13,809
What do you think?
350
00:14:13,983 --> 00:14:15,376
- I like it.
- Yeah?
351
00:14:15,550 --> 00:14:16,990
Yeah, we do a new
Christmas-y thing
352
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:18,572
every day leading up
until Christmas Day.
353
00:14:18,596 --> 00:14:20,294
Yes, no, I think it's perfect.
354
00:14:20,468 --> 00:14:22,644
I think it's a really fun
way to engage the audience
355
00:14:22,818 --> 00:14:24,515
and capture the
network's attention.
356
00:14:24,689 --> 00:14:25,734
Yeah!
357
00:14:25,908 --> 00:14:27,214
Yeah.
Yes.
358
00:14:28,476 --> 00:14:29,477
What?
359
00:14:29,651 --> 00:14:30,651
Where?
360
00:14:32,088 --> 00:14:37,050
I present to you, the Christmas
Challenge calendar board.
361
00:14:38,442 --> 00:14:40,594
So, you were pretty confident
that we were doing this?
362
00:14:40,618 --> 00:14:41,618
Was I wrong?
363
00:14:41,663 --> 00:14:42,664
No, you were not.
364
00:14:43,970 --> 00:14:45,512
Well, I'm glad we're
on the same page then.
365
00:14:45,536 --> 00:14:47,036
But the listener's
email did not detail
366
00:14:47,060 --> 00:14:48,975
what we were gonna
be doing each day.
367
00:14:49,149 --> 00:14:50,802
Well, actually I did get a list
368
00:14:50,977 --> 00:14:52,630
and in order for
them to be done in,
369
00:14:52,804 --> 00:14:54,826
but per the listener's
request, I didn't look at it.
370
00:14:54,850 --> 00:14:58,071
Oh, you did this
board blindfolded.
371
00:14:58,245 --> 00:15:00,508
No, I used the
power of an intern.
372
00:15:00,682 --> 00:15:01,857
The what?
373
00:15:03,250 --> 00:15:05,643
- Jasmine made it.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, Jasmine.
374
00:15:06,775 --> 00:15:08,646
So, shall we?
375
00:15:08,820 --> 00:15:10,083
Yes!
376
00:15:12,085 --> 00:15:13,608
Well, thanks to this listener,
377
00:15:13,782 --> 00:15:15,349
I think this is gonna be
378
00:15:15,523 --> 00:15:16,804
an interesting month
leading up till Christmas,
379
00:15:16,828 --> 00:15:17,655
don't you think, Paul?
380
00:15:17,829 --> 00:15:19,309
I do think so, yes.
381
00:15:19,483 --> 00:15:20,963
I think it's gonna
be a really fun way
382
00:15:21,094 --> 00:15:22,419
to get into the
Christmas spirit, yeah.
383
00:15:22,443 --> 00:15:23,748
Yes!
384
00:15:23,923 --> 00:15:25,402
All right, well,
let's get started.
385
00:15:25,576 --> 00:15:28,318
Paul, will you please
reveal day number one?
386
00:15:28,492 --> 00:15:32,235
Oh, the moment we've
all been waiting for.
387
00:15:32,409 --> 00:15:34,063
Paul is standing
up and reaching over
388
00:15:34,237 --> 00:15:37,675
to our Christmas Challenge
board and reviewing number one.
389
00:15:37,849 --> 00:15:41,331
Day number one,
"Christmas music!
390
00:15:41,505 --> 00:15:43,507
Kick off the season
by getting the warm,
391
00:15:43,681 --> 00:15:45,857
fuzzy feeling inside
you by pushing play
392
00:15:46,032 --> 00:15:48,817
on some classics,
some favorites.
393
00:15:48,991 --> 00:15:50,514
Any kind will do,
394
00:15:50,688 --> 00:15:53,865
but play Christmas music
and let it work its magic."
395
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,042
Oh, Christmas music, huh.
396
00:15:56,216 --> 00:15:58,044
Well, that's an easy one.
397
00:15:58,218 --> 00:16:01,134
I think I'm gonna be getting
through this list pretty fast.
398
00:16:01,308 --> 00:16:03,136
Okay, so any of you
indie poders out there,
399
00:16:03,310 --> 00:16:05,225
please feel free
to join us on this.
400
00:16:05,399 --> 00:16:07,531
Yes, and we will be
posting every item up
401
00:16:07,705 --> 00:16:09,533
on our website so
you can join along
402
00:16:09,707 --> 00:16:11,753
and participate in this
Christmas Challenge with us.
403
00:16:11,927 --> 00:16:14,190
Hey, make it a family affair.
404
00:16:14,364 --> 00:16:16,062
Or you can join me in showing
405
00:16:16,236 --> 00:16:18,586
that you could enjoy
Christmas independently
406
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,240
if that's what you want.
407
00:16:20,414 --> 00:16:22,285
And I'm gonna do this
one for everyone.
408
00:16:22,459 --> 00:16:26,333
Here's some Christmas music to
get us in the holiday spirit.
409
00:16:37,474 --> 00:16:38,998
You know, it's day two.
410
00:16:39,172 --> 00:16:40,695
Day, number two, indeed.
411
00:16:40,869 --> 00:16:42,349
Yes.
Hm.
412
00:16:42,523 --> 00:16:43,587
I listened to
Christmas music yesterday
413
00:16:43,611 --> 00:16:45,134
for like 24 hours straight,
414
00:16:45,308 --> 00:16:47,348
and I gotta say, it's kinda
workin' its magic on me.
415
00:16:47,397 --> 00:16:48,833
What about you?
416
00:16:49,008 --> 00:16:51,793
I listened during
the show yesterday.
417
00:16:53,012 --> 00:16:55,014
I'm ready for my next task.
418
00:16:55,188 --> 00:17:00,019
All right, well let's
roll in five, four.
419
00:17:04,284 --> 00:17:06,068
Christmas time is upon us.
420
00:17:06,242 --> 00:17:08,592
Welcome to day two of this
crazy adventure that we're on.
421
00:17:08,766 --> 00:17:10,246
To reveal day two,
422
00:17:10,420 --> 00:17:12,335
I'm going to throw it to
Mr. Christmas himself,
423
00:17:12,509 --> 00:17:13,292
Producer Paul.
424
00:17:13,467 --> 00:17:14,771
Mr. Christmas.
425
00:17:14,945 --> 00:17:16,305
That's a title I
could get used to.
426
00:17:17,252 --> 00:17:18,776
Paul is reaching up.
427
00:17:18,950 --> 00:17:20,256
He's grabbing number two
428
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:21,537
from our Christmas
Challenge board
429
00:17:21,561 --> 00:17:23,564
and executes it perfectly.
430
00:17:23,738 --> 00:17:25,695
- "Christmas cookies."
- Oo.
431
00:17:25,869 --> 00:17:27,436
I don't even have
to read the rest
432
00:17:27,611 --> 00:17:30,353
of this because Christmas
cookies are my jam.
433
00:17:30,527 --> 00:17:31,528
Cookies are good.
434
00:17:31,702 --> 00:17:33,748
So, what do I need to do today?
435
00:17:33,922 --> 00:17:36,272
"You are gonna need some energy
for the rest of this list,
436
00:17:36,446 --> 00:17:37,882
so let's give it to ya.
437
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:39,417
Everybody loves
Christmas cookies."
438
00:17:39,493 --> 00:17:40,885
- True.
- "So, share some
439
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:43,932
with friends, family,
even strangers,
440
00:17:44,106 --> 00:17:47,588
really anybody who could use
a little extra holiday cheer.
441
00:17:47,762 --> 00:17:50,417
And don't forget to enjoy some
yourself while you're at it."
442
00:17:50,591 --> 00:17:51,418
Great.
443
00:17:51,592 --> 00:17:53,594
So you heard it, poders.
444
00:17:53,768 --> 00:17:55,074
It's,
445
00:17:55,248 --> 00:17:56,945
"Cookie time!"
446
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,121
We're so lucky.
447
00:17:59,295 --> 00:18:01,776
We get to eat cookies
as part of our job.
448
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,049
Merry Christmas.
Thank you, kindly.
449
00:18:38,073 --> 00:18:39,074
Of course.
450
00:18:54,611 --> 00:18:55,917
Merry Christmas.
451
00:18:56,091 --> 00:18:58,049
Some fresh baked
Christmas cookies.
452
00:18:58,224 --> 00:19:00,574
And I included some fun
things to help you decorate.
453
00:19:00,748 --> 00:19:03,142
You and Mary can get into
the Christmas spirit.
454
00:19:03,316 --> 00:19:04,396
Oh, thanks, man.
455
00:19:04,447 --> 00:19:05,013
This is very nice of you.
456
00:19:05,187 --> 00:19:06,754
Yeah.
457
00:19:06,928 --> 00:19:07,537
I'm sure the missus will
be very happy to get these.
458
00:19:07,711 --> 00:19:08,756
Mm hm.
459
00:19:08,930 --> 00:19:10,125
I even predated some so you can
460
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:11,343
just dig right in if you want.
461
00:19:11,367 --> 00:19:12,847
Even better.
462
00:19:13,021 --> 00:19:14,390
Is this part of your
Christmas podcasting?
463
00:19:14,414 --> 00:19:16,590
- Yeah.
- Do I smell cookies?
464
00:19:18,331 --> 00:19:20,178
It's like she has superpowers
now that she's pregnant.
465
00:19:20,202 --> 00:19:22,161
You wanna hang out?
466
00:19:22,335 --> 00:19:24,424
No thanks, I got some
more cookies to deliver.
467
00:19:24,598 --> 00:19:26,165
All right, well good luck.
468
00:19:26,339 --> 00:19:27,775
Thanks.
469
00:19:27,949 --> 00:19:29,187
I'm sure I'm smelling cookies.
470
00:19:29,211 --> 00:19:30,212
What are they?
471
00:19:31,082 --> 00:19:32,736
Okay, well I better get goin'
472
00:19:32,910 --> 00:19:34,279
and you better get
her these cookies.
473
00:19:34,303 --> 00:19:35,348
Yeah, thanks man.
474
00:19:39,917 --> 00:19:41,397
As we said last time,
475
00:19:41,571 --> 00:19:43,158
we are changing up the
format a little bit
476
00:19:43,182 --> 00:19:45,749
to be a daily mini pod
leading up until Christmas.
477
00:19:45,923 --> 00:19:49,405
Paul, will you reveal
what we are doing today?
478
00:19:49,579 --> 00:19:51,233
"Hang a wreath.
479
00:19:51,407 --> 00:19:53,453
There will be more Christmas
decorating to come,
480
00:19:53,627 --> 00:19:56,064
but let's start with
a wreath on the door.
481
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:57,848
Just a way to warm your heart
482
00:19:58,022 --> 00:20:01,243
as you walk into the door
of your home or office."
483
00:20:02,723 --> 00:20:07,467
Well, I don't have a wreath
on me here in the studio,
484
00:20:08,729 --> 00:20:10,078
but that doesn't
mean I can't get
485
00:20:10,252 --> 00:20:14,691
a little creative and make one.
486
00:20:14,865 --> 00:20:16,650
All right.
487
00:20:16,824 --> 00:20:19,218
Like I always say, don't let
anything stand in the way
488
00:20:19,392 --> 00:20:21,698
of you achieving your goals.
489
00:20:22,612 --> 00:20:25,528
With a little creativity,
490
00:20:26,790 --> 00:20:31,230
out of the box thinking
and some extra red bows,
491
00:20:31,404 --> 00:20:34,929
you can really
accomplish anything.
492
00:20:35,103 --> 00:20:40,064
So, I am gonna have
Jasmine, our trusted intern,
493
00:20:41,283 --> 00:20:42,850
she's brand new and lovely.
494
00:20:43,024 --> 00:20:44,330
You're gonna hear from her soon.
495
00:20:44,504 --> 00:20:46,897
She is going to just put this up
496
00:20:47,071 --> 00:20:49,596
on the site so you can see it.
497
00:20:49,770 --> 00:20:53,861
All that's left to do is
hang up this brand new wreath
498
00:20:54,035 --> 00:20:57,430
that I made right
now on the podcast.
499
00:20:57,604 --> 00:21:01,999
Good luck to all of you out
there on your Christmas journey.
500
00:21:02,173 --> 00:21:03,827
Wow, very impressive.
501
00:21:04,001 --> 00:21:06,352
It looks like we've got a
Picasso in the studio, everyone.
502
00:21:06,526 --> 00:21:07,744
You're so kind.
503
00:21:10,747 --> 00:21:13,141
Hey, how's the
mama to be feelin'?
504
00:21:13,315 --> 00:21:14,838
She's good, man.
505
00:21:15,012 --> 00:21:16,642
Well, consumin' a lot
of Christmas cookies,
506
00:21:16,666 --> 00:21:18,755
but she says it's
due to the pregnancy.
507
00:21:18,929 --> 00:21:21,671
I however, think
it's just an excuse.
508
00:21:21,845 --> 00:21:24,021
Yeah, well, let's
not get in the habit
509
00:21:24,195 --> 00:21:26,937
of cookie shaming pregnant
women now, all right?
510
00:21:27,111 --> 00:21:28,915
Yeah, I guess you're right.
511
00:21:28,939 --> 00:21:30,506
How's the Christmas
Challenge going?
512
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,552
It's going pretty good.
513
00:21:32,726 --> 00:21:34,597
You know, I was
hoping that Laura
514
00:21:34,771 --> 00:21:37,861
might be a little bit more
excited about it, though.
515
00:21:38,035 --> 00:21:39,341
What are you talkin' about?
516
00:21:39,515 --> 00:21:41,212
Well, you know,
517
00:21:41,387 --> 00:21:43,190
I was really hoping that we
could do these things together,
518
00:21:43,214 --> 00:21:45,062
but she seems more interested
in just checking items
519
00:21:45,086 --> 00:21:48,045
off a list than really getting
in the Christmas spirit.
520
00:21:48,219 --> 00:21:49,830
Well, maybe she'll
get into it soon.
521
00:21:50,004 --> 00:21:52,441
I mean, you're only
on day three, right?
522
00:21:53,703 --> 00:21:55,096
Maybe she needs a
little bit more,
523
00:21:55,270 --> 00:21:57,185
you know, motivation
or encouragement.
524
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:58,360
Yeah, maybe.
525
00:21:59,796 --> 00:22:00,836
Well, I gotta go.
526
00:22:00,928 --> 00:22:02,277
Did you tell him?
527
00:22:02,451 --> 00:22:04,061
I will.
528
00:22:04,235 --> 00:22:06,126
Paul, Mary says thanks
for the Christmas cookies,
529
00:22:06,150 --> 00:22:09,066
and if you have any more, feel
free to dump 'em off here.
530
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,241
Okay.
531
00:22:10,416 --> 00:22:11,523
I'll drop some off tomorrow.
532
00:22:11,547 --> 00:22:12,679
Thanks, man.
533
00:22:12,853 --> 00:22:13,853
You're a lifesaver.
Bye.
534
00:22:20,034 --> 00:22:20,861
How's it goin'?
535
00:22:21,035 --> 00:22:23,211
Not great.
536
00:22:23,385 --> 00:22:25,039
What do you mean?
537
00:22:25,213 --> 00:22:26,853
They're taking very
different approaches
538
00:22:26,997 --> 00:22:29,157
and she's not interested in
doing this with him at all.
539
00:22:29,260 --> 00:22:32,394
Well, let's give it some
time and see if that changes.
540
00:22:32,568 --> 00:22:35,266
She can't do the
whole list by herself.
541
00:22:35,441 --> 00:22:36,703
I don't know.
542
00:22:36,877 --> 00:22:38,618
She's a pretty
determined person.
543
00:22:38,792 --> 00:22:39,880
There's still time.
544
00:22:42,012 --> 00:22:45,407
Um, what, um,
545
00:22:46,669 --> 00:22:48,497
what did he say
about the cookies?
546
00:22:48,671 --> 00:22:49,977
He'll bring them tomorrow.
547
00:22:50,151 --> 00:22:51,195
Tomorrow?
548
00:22:51,370 --> 00:22:53,154
I know, he's a horrible friend
549
00:22:53,328 --> 00:22:56,897
who's clearly not doing his
role as godfather any justice.
550
00:22:57,071 --> 00:22:58,289
Mm mm.
551
00:22:58,464 --> 00:22:59,639
- What?
- I need all these.
552
00:23:00,944 --> 00:23:02,555
It's the season of
giving, not taking.
553
00:23:06,776 --> 00:23:07,776
Good morning.
554
00:23:08,778 --> 00:23:10,127
Care for a breakfast cookie?
555
00:23:10,301 --> 00:23:12,260
What's a breakfast cookie?
556
00:23:12,434 --> 00:23:15,089
They're breakfast cookies.
557
00:23:15,263 --> 00:23:16,395
Wow, what a balanced meal.
558
00:23:16,569 --> 00:23:17,570
Mm hm.
559
00:23:17,744 --> 00:23:19,049
Do you happen to have any-
560
00:23:19,223 --> 00:23:20,244
- Oh, I got you right here.
561
00:23:20,268 --> 00:23:22,052
Very clever.
562
00:23:22,226 --> 00:23:23,489
Thank you very much.
563
00:23:23,663 --> 00:23:25,055
Wow.
564
00:23:25,229 --> 00:23:27,144
You are rolling day
two into day four.
565
00:23:27,318 --> 00:23:28,678
Well, you don't
have to just stop
566
00:23:28,798 --> 00:23:30,158
an activity because
the day's over.
567
00:23:30,321 --> 00:23:31,681
I mean, I haven't
stopped listening
568
00:23:31,845 --> 00:23:33,412
to Christmas music
since the first day.
569
00:23:33,586 --> 00:23:35,501
It's about getting into
the spirit of things,
570
00:23:35,675 --> 00:23:37,633
not just checking
items off a list.
571
00:23:37,807 --> 00:23:39,461
Well, I think if
I'm doing my list,
572
00:23:39,635 --> 00:23:40,984
the listeners will be happy.
573
00:23:41,158 --> 00:23:42,551
Sure, but keep in mind
574
00:23:42,725 --> 00:23:44,901
we've also gotta
impress the network.
575
00:23:45,075 --> 00:23:46,468
You're right.
576
00:23:46,642 --> 00:23:48,122
I should step it up for them.
577
00:23:48,818 --> 00:23:50,080
Mm, nice.
578
00:23:51,386 --> 00:23:52,909
"For day four's activity,
579
00:23:53,083 --> 00:23:55,346
we are gonna be writing and
sending Christmas cards.
580
00:23:55,521 --> 00:23:57,827
It's a great way to keep
in touch with old friends
581
00:23:58,001 --> 00:23:59,438
and reacquaint ourselves
582
00:23:59,612 --> 00:24:01,178
with those we may
have lost touch with.
583
00:25:01,064 --> 00:25:03,676
Day seven is write
a letter to Santa.
584
00:25:03,850 --> 00:25:05,765
It's an activity that
brings so much joy
585
00:25:05,939 --> 00:25:07,418
to kids each year and can bring
586
00:25:07,593 --> 00:25:09,508
the same to you as an adult."
587
00:25:15,818 --> 00:25:18,517
"Dear Santa,
588
00:25:20,736 --> 00:25:22,303
how are you?
589
00:25:24,653 --> 00:25:25,785
Things are good here."
590
00:25:30,093 --> 00:25:32,574
"Dear Santa,
591
00:25:35,577 --> 00:25:40,539
thank you for all the
joy that you have brought
592
00:25:41,975 --> 00:25:45,805
and continue to bring to
children all over the world.
593
00:25:46,936 --> 00:25:50,549
You are a true
inspiration to us all.
594
00:25:50,723 --> 00:25:53,552
Merry Christmas, Paul."
595
00:25:55,379 --> 00:25:57,556
"I know what I want
for Christmas this year.
596
00:25:59,122 --> 00:26:03,562
I want the network to
pick up our podcast."
597
00:26:04,606 --> 00:26:05,606
Yeah.
598
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,439
"P.S., please help us get
acquired by the podcast network.
599
00:26:12,962 --> 00:26:16,096
Laura really deserves it."
600
00:26:21,014 --> 00:26:22,755
All I'm saying is
that we're a quarter
601
00:26:22,929 --> 00:26:24,539
of the way through this,
602
00:26:24,713 --> 00:26:27,847
and so far, I feel like
maybe you're not caring
603
00:26:28,021 --> 00:26:30,589
as much as I expected you to.
604
00:26:31,807 --> 00:26:34,897
Oh, well, I'm
coming in every day
605
00:26:35,071 --> 00:26:36,856
and I'm doing
everything on the list,
606
00:26:37,030 --> 00:26:39,510
so what is it exactly
that you want me to do?
607
00:26:39,685 --> 00:26:41,861
Well, yeah, you are completing
608
00:26:42,035 --> 00:26:44,646
the list and reporting to
your listeners about it,
609
00:26:44,820 --> 00:26:46,648
which is great.
610
00:26:46,822 --> 00:26:49,999
I just feel like there could
be more energy put behind it.
611
00:26:50,173 --> 00:26:51,218
Does that make sense?
612
00:26:51,392 --> 00:26:52,828
Yeah.
613
00:26:53,002 --> 00:26:55,178
Do you want me to be
sprucing up the podcast?
614
00:26:55,352 --> 00:26:57,528
Like, we could put
some more work into it.
615
00:26:57,703 --> 00:27:00,357
I mean, it's not like we're on
TV or anybody's watching me.
616
00:27:00,531 --> 00:27:01,881
You're right, we're not on TV,
617
00:27:02,055 --> 00:27:04,361
but pretty soon somebody
will be watching you.
618
00:27:05,754 --> 00:27:07,190
What?
619
00:27:07,364 --> 00:27:08,884
I talked to the
network this morning,
620
00:27:08,975 --> 00:27:10,430
they really like
what they're hearing,
621
00:27:10,454 --> 00:27:11,814
but before they
commit any further,
622
00:27:11,978 --> 00:27:13,327
they wanna send
somebody down here
623
00:27:13,501 --> 00:27:15,895
and check out how
our operation works.
624
00:27:16,069 --> 00:27:17,157
Okay.
625
00:27:17,331 --> 00:27:18,419
When?
626
00:27:18,593 --> 00:27:19,638
Today.
627
00:27:19,812 --> 00:27:21,291
Okay.
628
00:27:21,465 --> 00:27:23,250
Paul, wait, what did,
what are you saying?
629
00:27:23,424 --> 00:27:24,468
Paul?
630
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:25,948
Paul, are you...
631
00:27:28,821 --> 00:27:31,650
Hey Jasmine, I need three copies
632
00:27:31,824 --> 00:27:33,260
of this put on my
desk right away,
633
00:27:33,434 --> 00:27:35,436
and then this needs
to be proofread,
634
00:27:35,610 --> 00:27:36,850
retyped and put on Laura's desk
635
00:27:37,003 --> 00:27:39,048
before our two
o'clock recording.
636
00:27:39,222 --> 00:27:43,052
And then this needs to be
collated and delivered to HR ASAP.
637
00:27:43,226 --> 00:27:44,532
I'll get right on these on.
638
00:27:44,706 --> 00:27:46,882
But oh, where is
the HR department?
639
00:27:47,056 --> 00:27:48,164
I don't think I've been there.
640
00:27:48,188 --> 00:27:50,016
Okay, you know what?
641
00:27:50,190 --> 00:27:52,385
Nevermind, I'll just take that
one back then, do it myself.
642
00:27:52,409 --> 00:27:54,237
That was really
painful to watch.
643
00:27:54,411 --> 00:27:55,238
What are you talking about?
644
00:27:55,412 --> 00:27:56,936
I'm talking about
645
00:27:57,110 --> 00:27:58,217
the busy producer guy
routine you're doing.
646
00:27:58,241 --> 00:27:59,590
Well, excuse me for trying
647
00:27:59,765 --> 00:28:01,165
to give off a good
first impression.
648
00:28:01,201 --> 00:28:02,637
Oh, is this person coming soon?
649
00:28:02,811 --> 00:28:04,595
Honestly, I don't know.
650
00:28:04,770 --> 00:28:06,356
I just know that a Michael
is supposed to be here today,
651
00:28:06,380 --> 00:28:08,060
so I figured I'd get
down here to greet him
652
00:28:08,121 --> 00:28:09,272
and then got a little
carried away giving off
653
00:28:09,296 --> 00:28:10,732
the impression that maybe
654
00:28:10,906 --> 00:28:12,275
we're a bigger deal
than we really are.
655
00:28:12,299 --> 00:28:13,692
I know.
656
00:28:13,866 --> 00:28:15,563
You know what?
657
00:28:15,737 --> 00:28:16,975
These need to go
to our sponsors,
658
00:28:16,999 --> 00:28:18,392
so let's just get right on that,
659
00:28:18,566 --> 00:28:20,133
and then this, hi,
660
00:28:20,307 --> 00:28:21,707
needs to be completely redone.
Hi.
661
00:28:21,830 --> 00:28:23,353
Hi, Chad.
662
00:28:23,527 --> 00:28:24,896
Pay no attention to the
show going on over here.
663
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:25,984
Paul's just having a little bit
664
00:28:26,008 --> 00:28:26,705
of a nervous breakdown.
665
00:28:26,879 --> 00:28:27,879
No, I'm not.
666
00:28:28,010 --> 00:28:29,272
Thank you.
667
00:28:29,446 --> 00:28:30,099
- I'm gonna go to work.
- Okay.
668
00:28:30,273 --> 00:28:31,274
Real work.
669
00:28:31,448 --> 00:28:32,449
Good luck with Michael.
670
00:28:32,623 --> 00:28:33,623
- Okay.
- Have fun.
671
00:28:33,712 --> 00:28:34,800
- Thanks.
- Okay.
672
00:28:36,627 --> 00:28:38,107
Did I get you the
licensing agreement?
673
00:28:38,151 --> 00:28:39,543
Mm.
674
00:28:39,718 --> 00:28:42,459
Oh, I forgot to
hand these to Laura.
675
00:28:42,633 --> 00:28:44,461
Okay, I'll get these to Laura,
676
00:28:44,635 --> 00:28:47,813
the podcast host in the
third office down the hall.
677
00:28:50,816 --> 00:28:51,816
Yeah.
678
00:28:52,774 --> 00:28:53,774
Okay.
679
00:28:53,819 --> 00:28:55,385
And these need to be-
680
00:28:55,559 --> 00:28:56,996
- Tabulated.
681
00:28:57,170 --> 00:28:59,825
Got it.
Tacked to a bulletin board.
682
00:28:59,999 --> 00:29:01,043
Yeah, what about those?
683
00:29:01,217 --> 00:29:02,377
Do those need to be shredded?
684
00:29:02,436 --> 00:29:03,829
And do those need to go
685
00:29:04,003 --> 00:29:05,443
to the printers for
balloon printing?
686
00:29:05,482 --> 00:29:06,309
No, stop.
687
00:29:06,483 --> 00:29:07,833
Jasmine, just stop.
688
00:29:08,007 --> 00:29:09,399
Okay, did you say
balloon printing?
689
00:29:09,573 --> 00:29:10,574
What are you doing?
690
00:29:10,749 --> 00:29:13,403
Okay, we're waiting for Michael.
691
00:29:13,577 --> 00:29:14,946
Does that look like
a Michael to you?
692
00:29:14,970 --> 00:29:16,450
No.
693
00:29:16,624 --> 00:29:17,775
Sorry, Paul, I just
really felt that one.
694
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:19,496
You know, I thought that Michael
695
00:29:19,670 --> 00:29:20,149
would be really impressed
if he walked in on that one.
696
00:29:20,323 --> 00:29:21,020
Maybe.
697
00:29:21,194 --> 00:29:21,890
Hi.
698
00:29:22,064 --> 00:29:22,804
Are you Paul?
699
00:29:22,978 --> 00:29:24,284
Yes.
700
00:29:24,458 --> 00:29:25,522
I couldn't help but overhearing.
701
00:29:25,546 --> 00:29:26,610
You're waiting for Michael?
702
00:29:26,634 --> 00:29:27,809
Yeah, that's correct.
703
00:29:27,983 --> 00:29:28,983
Hi.
704
00:29:29,811 --> 00:29:30,551
Hi.
705
00:29:30,725 --> 00:29:31,725
I'm Michael.
706
00:29:32,814 --> 00:29:33,814
I'm sorry, what?
707
00:29:33,859 --> 00:29:35,295
I'm Michael.
708
00:29:35,469 --> 00:29:37,297
Well, actually it's
pronounced Michale.
709
00:29:37,471 --> 00:29:38,951
Oh, oh.
710
00:29:39,125 --> 00:29:40,822
You're Michael?
711
00:29:40,996 --> 00:29:42,156
Michale.
712
00:29:42,302 --> 00:29:43,651
She does look like a Michale.
713
00:29:43,825 --> 00:29:45,305
Okay, thank you
so much, Jasmine.
714
00:29:45,479 --> 00:29:47,176
Hi, I'm so sorry.
715
00:29:47,350 --> 00:29:49,352
It's such a pleasure
to have you here.
716
00:29:49,526 --> 00:29:51,137
Thank you, I'm glad to be here.
717
00:29:56,098 --> 00:29:57,273
Hi.
718
00:29:57,447 --> 00:29:59,275
Hi.
719
00:29:59,449 --> 00:30:02,191
Paul, I see that you found a
fellow Christmas enthusiast.
720
00:30:02,365 --> 00:30:04,672
Oh, hi.
721
00:30:04,846 --> 00:30:06,630
It is such a
pleasure to meet you.
722
00:30:06,805 --> 00:30:10,025
I have been a fan of yours
for quite some time now.
723
00:30:10,199 --> 00:30:11,505
That is so nice of you to say.
724
00:30:11,679 --> 00:30:13,376
Thank you.
725
00:30:13,550 --> 00:30:15,180
And I've been loving the
recent Christmas episodes.
726
00:30:15,204 --> 00:30:17,250
It's really put me into
the Christmas spirit
727
00:30:17,424 --> 00:30:19,252
as you may have noticed.
728
00:30:19,426 --> 00:30:23,038
Oh, I even brought some of
the cookies that I made.
729
00:30:24,692 --> 00:30:25,998
Wow!
730
00:30:26,172 --> 00:30:28,087
And don't worry,
I did it myself.
731
00:30:28,261 --> 00:30:30,176
No pre-made dough or
store bought cookies here.
732
00:30:30,350 --> 00:30:33,266
As you say, we can do anything.
733
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:34,223
This is great.
734
00:30:34,397 --> 00:30:35,703
Thank you so much.
735
00:30:35,877 --> 00:30:36,898
That's so kind of
you to do this.
736
00:30:36,922 --> 00:30:38,358
I really appreciate it.
737
00:30:38,532 --> 00:30:40,142
And as much as I've
enjoying this, Paul,
738
00:30:40,316 --> 00:30:41,859
I feel like you might
wanna get back downstairs
739
00:30:41,883 --> 00:30:43,382
before we start so
that you can be there
740
00:30:43,406 --> 00:30:46,105
when the big network
big wig gets here.
741
00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:48,194
I don't mean to be rude.
742
00:30:48,368 --> 00:30:49,673
I'm so sorry.
743
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:51,458
If you would like
a tour, Jasmine,
744
00:30:51,632 --> 00:30:53,634
one of our interns would
love to take you on a tour
745
00:30:53,808 --> 00:30:56,028
or if you're really
close with Pauly here,
746
00:30:56,202 --> 00:30:59,031
he might want you to join
him in the big show down-
747
00:30:59,205 --> 00:31:00,597
- Okay, Laura?
- Yeah?
748
00:31:00,771 --> 00:31:02,382
This is Michale.
749
00:31:05,385 --> 00:31:06,865
Hi, Michale.
750
00:31:08,257 --> 00:31:09,824
Nice to meet you.
751
00:31:09,998 --> 00:31:11,391
Hi.
752
00:31:11,565 --> 00:31:14,785
Michale is from the
network where ironically
753
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,700
there's no Michael
who works there,
754
00:31:16,875 --> 00:31:21,575
and she's here to check out
how our operation works.
755
00:31:21,749 --> 00:31:22,924
I'm so sorry.
756
00:31:23,098 --> 00:31:25,100
I'm, I'm so sorry.
757
00:31:25,274 --> 00:31:26,536
I'm sorry.
758
00:31:26,710 --> 00:31:27,710
Me too.
759
00:31:41,638 --> 00:31:43,684
So Michale, if you
have any questions
760
00:31:43,858 --> 00:31:45,705
for me before the show, I'm
happy to answer some as well.
761
00:31:45,729 --> 00:31:47,253
Oh, thank you so much.
762
00:31:47,427 --> 00:31:51,518
More than anything, I'm
just happy to be here.
763
00:31:51,692 --> 00:31:54,434
Thank you so much, I'm
really just happy to be here.
764
00:31:54,608 --> 00:31:55,608
Oh.
765
00:31:57,045 --> 00:31:58,438
I forgot to take
you off of mute.
766
00:31:58,612 --> 00:32:00,135
- Oh.
- There we go.
767
00:32:00,309 --> 00:32:01,504
- Sorry.
- Now she can hear you.
768
00:32:01,528 --> 00:32:02,355
Okay.
769
00:32:02,529 --> 00:32:03,834
Thank you, Laura.
770
00:32:04,009 --> 00:32:05,575
You can just pretend
I'm not here.
771
00:32:05,749 --> 00:32:07,629
I'm just going to be a
silent observer.
772
00:32:08,013 --> 00:32:09,144
Great.
773
00:32:09,318 --> 00:32:11,146
That was my fault.
774
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,298
Okay, well, I'm all set in
here whenever you're all set.
775
00:32:13,322 --> 00:32:14,517
Yeah, we're all sudden here.
776
00:32:14,541 --> 00:32:18,153
We are on in five, four.
777
00:32:19,241 --> 00:32:20,721
So, I count down silently
778
00:32:20,895 --> 00:32:22,535
and then she just knows
to go on and talk.
779
00:32:24,507 --> 00:32:25,507
Yeah.
780
00:32:26,814 --> 00:32:29,034
Hello, hello, hello.
781
00:32:29,208 --> 00:32:32,863
I hope that you aren't getting
too sick of me and Paul yet.
782
00:32:33,038 --> 00:32:34,909
You're probably not used
783
00:32:35,083 --> 00:32:36,693
to this daily dosage from us,
784
00:32:36,867 --> 00:32:39,131
but I really hope that
you're enjoying yourself.
785
00:32:40,523 --> 00:32:41,523
Right?
786
00:32:41,611 --> 00:32:42,611
Isn't that right, Paul?
787
00:32:43,831 --> 00:32:45,659
Yes, that is correct.
788
00:32:49,576 --> 00:32:54,494
Okay, well, let's just jump
right into day eight then.
789
00:32:55,408 --> 00:32:56,191
- Oh.
- Day eight.
790
00:32:56,365 --> 00:32:56,887
Yes, day eight.
791
00:32:57,062 --> 00:32:58,062
Okay.
792
00:33:02,589 --> 00:33:05,070
Oo, a Christmas tree.
793
00:33:05,244 --> 00:33:06,985
Personal favorite of mine.
794
00:33:09,465 --> 00:33:11,511
Let's see what the
card has to say about it.
795
00:33:11,685 --> 00:33:13,600
Oh, right.
796
00:33:14,688 --> 00:33:15,688
Yeah.
797
00:33:17,299 --> 00:33:19,171
In my opinion,
best bakery in town.
798
00:33:19,345 --> 00:33:21,192
Oh, well thank you again
for the hot chocolate.
799
00:33:21,216 --> 00:33:22,609
Oh yeah, it's the best way
800
00:33:22,783 --> 00:33:24,263
to keep warm on a
cold day like today.
801
00:33:24,350 --> 00:33:25,829
Hey, if you two don't mind,
802
00:33:26,004 --> 00:33:27,324
I would love to
tag along with you
803
00:33:27,396 --> 00:33:29,094
when you do your
Christmas tree shopping.
804
00:33:29,268 --> 00:33:31,246
You know, kinda get a feel
for how you work together.
805
00:33:31,270 --> 00:33:33,707
We actually do the
activities on our own.
806
00:33:33,881 --> 00:33:34,882
Oh.
807
00:33:35,056 --> 00:33:36,362
I just assumed from listening
808
00:33:36,536 --> 00:33:38,059
that you two were really close.
809
00:33:38,233 --> 00:33:39,713
Yeah.
810
00:33:39,887 --> 00:33:41,473
I mean, we've been
best friends for years.
811
00:33:41,497 --> 00:33:42,605
You know, Laura
likes to live the life
812
00:33:42,629 --> 00:33:44,326
that she talks about on the air,
813
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:46,894
and I guess being independent
is a big part of that.
814
00:33:47,895 --> 00:33:49,592
I see.
815
00:33:49,766 --> 00:33:51,806
Well, I guess I'll just
have to keep listening then.
816
00:33:51,899 --> 00:33:54,423
I'm sure I can get a feel for
your work from the office.
817
00:33:54,597 --> 00:33:56,164
Oh, well, I don't
have any commitment
818
00:33:56,338 --> 00:33:57,750
to being independent if
you'd like to join me.
819
00:33:57,774 --> 00:33:58,993
I'd love to have you.
820
00:33:59,167 --> 00:34:00,777
- That would be great.
- Okay.
821
00:34:00,951 --> 00:34:02,997
I gotta warn you, I do my
Christmas tree shopping
822
00:34:03,171 --> 00:34:06,000
just a little bit differently
than most.
823
00:34:15,487 --> 00:34:17,272
I decided to step
out of the normalcy
824
00:34:17,446 --> 00:34:19,534
of the Christmas
tree lot this year,
825
00:34:19,708 --> 00:34:24,062
and step into nature's
Christmas tree lot, nature.
826
00:34:26,934 --> 00:34:28,283
I'm venturing out into the woods
827
00:34:28,456 --> 00:34:30,764
to pick my own tree
and cut it down.
828
00:34:30,938 --> 00:34:33,679
I hope it inspires you to
know that you can do that too.
829
00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:38,598
And I have found a winner.
830
00:34:39,860 --> 00:34:43,210
The next sound you hear
will be metal to wood,
831
00:34:43,385 --> 00:34:46,127
sawing down the tress and
listening to the tree fall.
832
00:34:47,607 --> 00:34:49,826
Now, the key is to look
at it from all angles.
833
00:34:51,001 --> 00:34:52,457
Most trees have a weak
side and sometimes
834
00:34:52,481 --> 00:34:54,047
that's just what
you need to be able
835
00:34:54,222 --> 00:34:56,572
to perfectly fit it in
the corner of a room.
836
00:34:56,746 --> 00:34:58,487
And then sometimes you need-
837
00:34:58,661 --> 00:35:00,639
- Sometimes you find the
perfect tree from all angles,
838
00:35:00,663 --> 00:35:02,163
which gives you more
room for decorating
839
00:35:02,187 --> 00:35:04,232
and the ability to
put it in a window
840
00:35:04,406 --> 00:35:06,713
so it can be enjoyed
from all sides.
841
00:35:06,887 --> 00:35:07,540
Boom.
842
00:35:07,714 --> 00:35:08,714
Wow.
843
00:35:08,758 --> 00:35:10,673
Isn't that a beauty?
844
00:35:10,847 --> 00:35:12,545
I know, right?
845
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,373
Would you like the honors?
846
00:35:14,547 --> 00:35:16,375
I mean, I can give it a go,
847
00:35:16,549 --> 00:35:19,117
but maybe be ready
to jump in and help.
848
00:35:19,291 --> 00:35:20,640
This is the perfect tree.
849
00:35:20,814 --> 00:35:22,008
You've got plenty
of room down there
850
00:35:22,032 --> 00:35:23,599
at the base to make a cut,
851
00:35:23,773 --> 00:35:25,229
but you don't have to
worry about making it even
852
00:35:25,253 --> 00:35:26,776
'cause we'll just
make it straight
853
00:35:26,950 --> 00:35:28,909
before we put it in the stand.
854
00:35:29,083 --> 00:35:30,563
This is so great.
855
00:35:30,737 --> 00:35:31,817
I wonder how Laura's doing.
856
00:35:31,912 --> 00:35:33,043
I hope she's all right.
857
00:35:34,523 --> 00:35:35,655
All right.
858
00:35:35,829 --> 00:35:38,005
Oh, we're gonna do this.
859
00:35:38,179 --> 00:35:39,180
Oh, right there.
860
00:35:39,354 --> 00:35:40,703
Oh, that's the stuff.
861
00:35:48,015 --> 00:35:50,017
Oh, oh.
862
00:35:50,931 --> 00:35:52,367
Take that, nature.
863
00:35:56,066 --> 00:35:57,066
Ah, man.
864
00:36:14,041 --> 00:36:18,393
I cut down the tree, and
I feel so accomplished.
865
00:36:19,916 --> 00:36:22,180
Now I just need to get it to
the car and drive it home.
866
00:36:27,794 --> 00:36:29,361
I need to get it to the car.
867
00:36:30,579 --> 00:36:31,579
Oh.
868
00:36:33,887 --> 00:36:35,758
Star first and decorate.
869
00:36:35,932 --> 00:36:36,933
You decorate after.
870
00:36:37,107 --> 00:36:38,107
No, no, no.
Yeah.
871
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:39,762
The star definitely goes last.
872
00:36:42,504 --> 00:36:43,897
Oh, Laura.
873
00:36:44,071 --> 00:36:44,724
Hey.
874
00:36:44,898 --> 00:36:46,378
Hi.
875
00:36:46,552 --> 00:36:48,138
I didn't realize
you were out here too.
876
00:36:48,162 --> 00:36:50,991
Yeah.
877
00:36:51,165 --> 00:36:52,340
You okay?
878
00:36:52,514 --> 00:36:53,167
Yeah, I'm great.
879
00:36:53,341 --> 00:36:53,994
Yeah.
880
00:36:54,168 --> 00:36:55,168
Okay.
881
00:36:56,475 --> 00:36:58,259
Would you like some help?
882
00:36:58,433 --> 00:37:00,087
You know I don't.
883
00:37:00,261 --> 00:37:01,261
All good.
884
00:37:01,306 --> 00:37:02,306
Yeah.
Okay.
885
00:37:05,397 --> 00:37:07,790
Laura, that's a really
great looking tree.
886
00:37:07,964 --> 00:37:09,052
Oh, thank you.
887
00:37:09,227 --> 00:37:10,924
So is yours.
888
00:37:11,098 --> 00:37:13,143
Are you sure you're okay?
889
00:37:13,318 --> 00:37:15,407
Yeah, yeah.
890
00:37:15,581 --> 00:37:16,581
Okay.
891
00:37:16,712 --> 00:37:18,105
Well, we'll see you later.
892
00:37:18,279 --> 00:37:19,628
Bye, Laura.
893
00:37:19,802 --> 00:37:21,108
Have you guys see my car?
894
00:37:22,327 --> 00:37:23,327
- Sorry.
- Okay.
895
00:37:27,114 --> 00:37:28,681
Isn't it a good
thing that she's here
896
00:37:28,855 --> 00:37:31,336
and enjoying herself so much?
897
00:37:31,510 --> 00:37:33,599
Doesn't that bode well for
you joining the network?
898
00:37:33,773 --> 00:37:36,471
Yeah, but does she
have to be so happy
899
00:37:36,645 --> 00:37:38,038
with Paul all the time?
900
00:37:38,212 --> 00:37:40,127
He's the producer of your show.
901
00:37:40,301 --> 00:37:43,652
It's kind of his job, right?
902
00:37:43,826 --> 00:37:45,698
Well, it's just ever
since she got here,
903
00:37:45,872 --> 00:37:48,483
they have been
completely inseparable.
904
00:37:48,657 --> 00:37:49,919
She's shadowing him.
905
00:37:50,093 --> 00:37:52,139
No, it's the Christmas
Challenge thing.
906
00:37:52,313 --> 00:37:53,633
Ever since the
Christmas tree day,
907
00:37:53,706 --> 00:37:55,534
they've done
everything together.
908
00:37:55,708 --> 00:37:57,710
Day nine, Christmas
shopping together,
909
00:37:57,884 --> 00:37:59,842
day 10 wrapping
presents together,
910
00:38:00,016 --> 00:38:03,368
day 11 toy donation
together, day 12 eggnog.
911
00:38:03,542 --> 00:38:05,326
Okay, slow down.
912
00:38:05,500 --> 00:38:07,130
There's nothing wrong with
drinking eggnog with someone.
913
00:38:07,154 --> 00:38:08,198
Oh, no.
914
00:38:08,373 --> 00:38:10,026
They decided it would be best
915
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,508
if they made homemade eggnog
from scratch together.
916
00:38:16,555 --> 00:38:18,054
They did the same thing
with the warm hot meal
917
00:38:18,078 --> 00:38:19,775
and hot chocolate
for days 13 and 14.
918
00:38:19,949 --> 00:38:22,169
Well, have you thought
about joining them?
919
00:38:23,692 --> 00:38:26,782
Or asking Paul to do any of
these daily things with you?
920
00:38:27,827 --> 00:38:28,871
I can't.
921
00:38:29,045 --> 00:38:30,656
Why not?
922
00:38:30,830 --> 00:38:32,875
The whole point of my
podcast is that I'm showing
923
00:38:33,049 --> 00:38:35,617
that I can do all of
these things by myself.
924
00:38:36,879 --> 00:38:38,533
What would it say
to my listeners
925
00:38:38,707 --> 00:38:40,753
if I was just doing
everything with someone else?
926
00:38:41,928 --> 00:38:44,887
Maybe they would
think it's Christmas,
927
00:38:45,061 --> 00:38:47,368
and it's not about checking
things off of a list
928
00:38:47,542 --> 00:38:49,239
or doing things alone,
929
00:38:49,414 --> 00:38:52,286
but about spending time
with the ones that you love.
930
00:38:54,897 --> 00:38:56,159
Babe, I'm home.
931
00:38:57,639 --> 00:39:00,338
It's day 15,
Christmas movie time.
932
00:39:00,512 --> 00:39:02,601
Speaking of time
with loved ones.
933
00:39:03,950 --> 00:39:04,733
Laura, are you joining us?
934
00:39:04,907 --> 00:39:06,126
No.
935
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:08,302
You two have a
wonderful time together.
936
00:39:08,476 --> 00:39:11,479
I don't wanna be a third
wheel, or a fourth wheel.
937
00:39:11,653 --> 00:39:13,481
Are we counting the
little one in your belly?
938
00:39:13,655 --> 00:39:16,397
Sweetie, we would be
happy to have you join.
939
00:39:17,659 --> 00:39:19,313
Or you could call Paul.
940
00:39:19,487 --> 00:39:21,402
No, I think I will
go home by myself.
941
00:39:21,576 --> 00:39:23,230
I'm sure he and
Michale are watching
942
00:39:23,404 --> 00:39:25,232
a Christmas movie
together right now.
943
00:39:26,929 --> 00:39:28,191
Think about what I said.
944
00:39:29,715 --> 00:39:31,875
It's so much better to share
these things with someone.
945
00:39:36,374 --> 00:39:37,592
Oo.
946
00:39:37,766 --> 00:39:39,072
It's that time of year, folks.
947
00:39:39,246 --> 00:39:41,161
It's time to sing.
948
00:39:42,641 --> 00:39:44,841
It seems that the Christmas
board is repeating itself.
949
00:39:44,947 --> 00:39:46,558
If you recall,
950
00:39:46,732 --> 00:39:49,517
we started this adventure
with Christmas music.
951
00:39:49,691 --> 00:39:51,911
Yes, that's true, but
this kind of Christmas music
952
00:39:52,085 --> 00:39:55,523
is to be performed
by you for others.
953
00:39:55,697 --> 00:39:58,396
It's time for
Christmas caroling.
954
00:40:01,877 --> 00:40:04,140
Oh no, that one's way too hard.
955
00:40:04,314 --> 00:40:06,665
Oh, no.
956
00:40:06,839 --> 00:40:08,449
Hey, what's goin' on?
957
00:40:08,623 --> 00:40:10,495
Hi.
958
00:40:10,669 --> 00:40:13,280
Well, I'm looking up Christmas
carols for me to sing tonight
959
00:40:13,454 --> 00:40:16,109
that won't bring physical
pain to the listener.
960
00:40:16,283 --> 00:40:18,154
Come on, I've heard
you sing before.
961
00:40:18,328 --> 00:40:19,982
You've got a lovely voice.
962
00:40:20,156 --> 00:40:22,724
In fact, we could use that
voice of yours tonight.
963
00:40:22,898 --> 00:40:24,247
What are you talking about?
964
00:40:24,422 --> 00:40:25,822
Well, you know,
Christmas caroling
965
00:40:25,901 --> 00:40:27,301
is usually done as
a group activity.
966
00:40:27,337 --> 00:40:29,035
It's not so much a solo thing.
967
00:40:31,646 --> 00:40:33,343
You know-
968
00:40:33,518 --> 00:40:35,278
- So far it's Michale, me,
Jasmine and her boyfriend,
969
00:40:35,302 --> 00:40:37,609
really nice guy, and then
you, if you wanna join.
970
00:40:39,262 --> 00:40:41,351
I think I'm gonna
do this one solo.
971
00:40:41,526 --> 00:40:43,919
Unfortunately, I don't
know any Christmas carols,
972
00:40:44,093 --> 00:40:46,095
but fortunately I
have the internet.
973
00:40:46,269 --> 00:40:47,314
The internet.
974
00:40:47,488 --> 00:40:49,185
Oh, the worldwide web.
975
00:40:49,359 --> 00:40:50,926
I gotcha.
Bye, Paul.
976
00:40:51,100 --> 00:40:52,251
Okay, have fun tonight.
977
00:40:52,275 --> 00:40:53,712
Thanks, you too.
978
00:41:01,894 --> 00:41:04,331
I think I can make this work.
979
00:41:04,505 --> 00:41:06,507
Yes.
980
00:41:06,681 --> 00:41:07,681
Uh huh.
981
00:41:32,228 --> 00:41:33,228
Can I help you?
982
00:41:34,056 --> 00:41:35,057
Hi.
983
00:41:37,364 --> 00:41:38,713
Yes.
984
00:41:38,887 --> 00:41:39,887
Good evening.
985
00:41:40,019 --> 00:41:41,847
I'm here to carol for you.
986
00:41:42,021 --> 00:41:44,086
I don't need to tell you that,
I should just start singing.
987
00:41:44,110 --> 00:41:45,241
Oh, wait a minute.
988
00:41:45,415 --> 00:41:47,635
My wife loves this stuff.
989
00:41:47,809 --> 00:41:48,809
- Oh.
- Honey.
990
00:41:48,897 --> 00:41:50,246
- Okay.
- Come out here.
991
00:41:50,420 --> 00:41:52,248
- Cool.
- We have carolers.
992
00:41:52,422 --> 00:41:53,902
She'll be right here.
993
00:41:54,076 --> 00:41:55,077
Honey, come on.
994
00:41:55,251 --> 00:41:56,252
I'm coming.
995
00:41:56,426 --> 00:41:57,906
Well, hurry it up.
996
00:42:00,039 --> 00:42:01,736
Why are you yelling at me?
997
00:42:01,910 --> 00:42:03,259
We have carolers.
998
00:42:03,433 --> 00:42:05,610
- Oh.
- Oh, well, we have a caroler.
999
00:42:07,307 --> 00:42:08,526
Okay.
1000
00:42:11,572 --> 00:42:12,399
Oh, that's me now.
1001
00:42:12,573 --> 00:42:13,879

1016
00:43:26,168 --> 00:43:28,693
It has been quite
an adventure so far.
1017
00:43:28,867 --> 00:43:32,261
And my caroling last night is
something that we may never,
1018
00:43:32,435 --> 00:43:34,350
ever speak of again.
1019
00:43:34,524 --> 00:43:36,178
And we are well past
the halfway point
1020
00:43:36,352 --> 00:43:39,138
and a dear friend reminded
me about the holidays
1021
00:43:39,312 --> 00:43:41,575
being about spending time
with your friends and family,
1022
00:43:41,749 --> 00:43:44,012
people who mean the most to you.
1023
00:43:44,186 --> 00:43:45,786
I really hope that
these daily activities
1024
00:43:45,927 --> 00:43:47,287
are bringing you
closer to someone.
1025
00:43:50,410 --> 00:43:51,846
It's been a crazy- Told you.
1026
00:43:52,020 --> 00:43:53,543
Yep, you were right.
1027
00:43:53,718 --> 00:43:55,589
She certainly has
a way with words.
1028
00:43:55,763 --> 00:43:57,460
She does.
1029
00:43:57,635 --> 00:44:00,507
And with that, I'm gonna throw
it to Mr. Christmas himself
1030
00:44:00,681 --> 00:44:03,205
and ask you to tell
us what we have next
1031
00:44:03,379 --> 00:44:05,381
for all of our wonderful
people out there.
1032
00:44:08,558 --> 00:44:10,648
"With Christmas
growing even closer,
1033
00:44:10,822 --> 00:44:13,476
it's time to decorate your home.
1034
00:44:13,651 --> 00:44:15,653
It'll fill your spirits
every time you come home
1035
00:44:15,827 --> 00:44:18,090
and do the same to
anyone who passes by
1036
00:44:18,264 --> 00:44:22,877
and sees the lights shining
the way for Santa to find you."
1037
00:44:23,051 --> 00:44:24,051
Well, that's right.
1038
00:44:24,139 --> 00:44:25,793
It is time to decorate.
1039
00:44:25,967 --> 00:44:27,047
And I hope you caught that.
1040
00:44:27,186 --> 00:44:28,840
He said, "Decorate your home,"
1041
00:44:29,014 --> 00:44:30,668
not your house because
it doesn't matter
1042
00:44:30,842 --> 00:44:35,716
if you live in a house or an
apartment or even a hotel room.
1043
00:44:39,546 --> 00:44:41,374
It's your home for
the time being.
1044
00:44:42,331 --> 00:44:44,072
Time to make it festive.
1045
00:44:46,161 --> 00:44:48,250
I heard what you said today.
1046
00:44:48,424 --> 00:44:50,035
Whoever that friend
is sure sounds
1047
00:44:50,209 --> 00:44:52,211
like they know what
they're talking about.
1048
00:44:55,605 --> 00:44:57,477
Even you have good
ideas sometimes.
1049
00:44:57,651 --> 00:44:59,571
It doesn't mean I'm gonna
start listening to you.
1050
00:44:59,653 --> 00:45:02,482
So, you aren't even
going to take your own advice,
1051
00:45:02,656 --> 00:45:04,963
which was actually my advice?
1052
00:45:05,137 --> 00:45:07,705
Actually, I just loaded a
box of decorations into my car
1053
00:45:07,879 --> 00:45:09,576
and I'm gonna bring it over
1054
00:45:09,750 --> 00:45:12,405
to Paul's house and surprise
him, help him decorate.
1055
00:45:12,579 --> 00:45:14,407
Yay!
1056
00:45:14,581 --> 00:45:16,931
Stop wasting time on the phone
with me and get over there.
1057
00:45:17,105 --> 00:45:18,585
Okay.
1058
00:45:18,759 --> 00:45:19,759
I'm invested.
1059
00:45:19,891 --> 00:45:20,891
Bye.
1060
00:45:37,212 --> 00:45:38,692
Aw, man.
1061
00:45:45,003 --> 00:45:47,135
Are you sure you
can spare all of this?
1062
00:45:47,309 --> 00:45:48,963
Oh my gosh, it's
no problem at all.
1063
00:45:49,137 --> 00:45:50,922
You heard Laura the other day.
1064
00:45:51,096 --> 00:45:52,943
It may be a hotel that you're
staying in for right now,
1065
00:45:52,967 --> 00:45:55,032
but it's your home, so you
should decorate it that way.
1066
00:45:55,056 --> 00:45:56,449
Well, I appreciate it.
1067
00:46:02,455 --> 00:46:04,500
Definitely never decorated
a hotel room before,
1068
00:46:04,674 --> 00:46:06,285
but I think it
should be pretty fun.
1069
00:46:06,459 --> 00:46:08,156
Yeah, you'll be great at it.
1070
00:46:08,330 --> 00:46:09,027
I'll load these in your car.
1071
00:46:09,201 --> 00:46:10,289
Oh, thanks.
1072
00:46:34,356 --> 00:46:35,356
Good morning.
1073
00:46:36,532 --> 00:46:38,332
Sounds like you had a
good night last night.
1074
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:39,709
You know what, I did.
1075
00:46:39,884 --> 00:46:41,604
I spent the entire night
decorating my house
1076
00:46:41,711 --> 00:46:44,105
and you know how I love
some Christmas decorations.
1077
00:46:44,279 --> 00:46:45,279
I do.
1078
00:46:46,238 --> 00:46:48,153
I'm glad you and Michale
had a good night.
1079
00:46:49,067 --> 00:46:50,067
Michale?
1080
00:46:54,028 --> 00:46:55,073
Good morning.
1081
00:46:55,247 --> 00:46:56,247
Hi.
1082
00:46:56,378 --> 00:46:57,466
Hi.
1083
00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:58,792
I just wanted to say, Paul,
1084
00:46:58,816 --> 00:47:00,121
thank you again for last night.
1085
00:47:00,295 --> 00:47:01,620
Yeah, did it all
work out for you?
1086
00:47:01,644 --> 00:47:03,298
Yes, perfectly.
1087
00:47:03,472 --> 00:47:04,472
Good.
1088
00:47:09,609 --> 00:47:12,046
So, should we get
today's recording down?
1089
00:47:12,220 --> 00:47:13,220
Yeah.
1090
00:47:14,092 --> 00:47:15,354
Great, let's do that.
1091
00:47:19,749 --> 00:47:21,926
Yesterday's task was a big one.
1092
00:47:22,100 --> 00:47:23,251
Well, that depends on the amount
1093
00:47:23,275 --> 00:47:24,754
of decorating you wanted to do,
1094
00:47:24,929 --> 00:47:26,515
so today we're just
gonna get right to it.
1095
00:47:26,539 --> 00:47:29,020
Paul, what do we have today?
1096
00:47:32,458 --> 00:47:33,807
Yes.
1097
00:47:33,981 --> 00:47:35,504
Okay, before I read this one,
1098
00:47:35,678 --> 00:47:37,855
there's something that I
have to do real quickly.
1099
00:47:39,769 --> 00:47:41,597
Okay.
1100
00:47:41,771 --> 00:47:44,122
For all you listeners, because
this isn't a visual format,
1101
00:47:44,296 --> 00:47:47,081
I'm gonna let you know that I
have no idea what's going on
1102
00:47:47,255 --> 00:47:48,866
and you are not missing much.
1103
00:47:53,914 --> 00:47:56,308
Oh, I take that back.
1104
00:47:56,482 --> 00:47:58,092
Our producer, Paul,
1105
00:47:58,266 --> 00:48:03,141
is, I can't quite describe
what he's wearing.
1106
00:48:04,098 --> 00:48:05,752
It's my Christmas sweater.
1107
00:48:05,926 --> 00:48:09,103
Yes, it's a Christmas
sweater and it's so very-
1108
00:48:09,277 --> 00:48:10,061
- Festive.
1109
00:48:10,235 --> 00:48:11,235
Paul.
1110
00:48:12,628 --> 00:48:15,936
I have to know, why
was it under your desk
1111
00:48:16,110 --> 00:48:17,677
and are you peeking ahead
1112
00:48:17,851 --> 00:48:20,114
to see what we have on
our Christmas calendar?
1113
00:48:20,288 --> 00:48:21,724
No, I have not.
1114
00:48:21,899 --> 00:48:23,770
When we started this
whole Christmas fun,
1115
00:48:23,944 --> 00:48:25,903
I just knew there would be a day
1116
00:48:26,077 --> 00:48:28,862
that would arise where a
Christmas sweater was called upon.
1117
00:48:29,036 --> 00:48:31,647
So, you hoped there would
be a Christmas sweater day?
1118
00:48:31,821 --> 00:48:33,345
Well, maybe a
little bit of both.
1119
00:48:33,519 --> 00:48:36,130
Either way, I bought this
beautiful Christmas garment
1120
00:48:36,304 --> 00:48:38,959
last holiday season but never
had a chance to wear it,
1121
00:48:39,133 --> 00:48:41,962
so when we started the
challenge, I came in,
1122
00:48:42,136 --> 00:48:44,008
hid it under my desk
and was just waiting
1123
00:48:44,182 --> 00:48:46,445
for the perfect moment to
pull it out, which is now.
1124
00:48:46,619 --> 00:48:49,970
It's so you to do that.
1125
00:48:50,144 --> 00:48:52,190
And with that, I encourage
all of you out there
1126
00:48:52,364 --> 00:48:54,148
to go out and get
a Christmas sweater
1127
00:48:54,322 --> 00:48:57,456
that would bring this much joy
to the people in your lives.
1128
00:48:57,630 --> 00:49:00,328
Great, and we are out.
1129
00:49:00,502 --> 00:49:02,635
Please tell me, like how
long have you been waiting
1130
00:49:02,809 --> 00:49:04,550
with the Christmas sweater?
1131
00:49:04,724 --> 00:49:06,006
Hey, I could not wait for today.
1132
00:49:06,030 --> 00:49:07,553
- Wow.
- This has literally
1133
00:49:07,727 --> 00:49:09,527
been marinating inside
of me this entire time,
1134
00:49:09,642 --> 00:49:11,513
and I was just scrolling
through social media.
1135
00:49:11,687 --> 00:49:12,838
I found it and I was like,
1136
00:49:12,862 --> 00:49:15,256
"I do not care what this costs."
1137
00:49:15,430 --> 00:49:17,302
Of course you would.
1138
00:49:17,476 --> 00:49:20,566
I love the lights on
the trees and the like,
1139
00:49:20,740 --> 00:49:21,741
the Christmas string.
1140
00:49:21,915 --> 00:49:23,264
Like, everything about it.
1141
00:49:23,438 --> 00:49:25,353
Do a little dance,
let me see it.
1142
00:49:25,527 --> 00:49:27,225
What's your favorite part?
1143
00:49:27,399 --> 00:49:30,097
Of course, it's the
Christmas trees that light up.
1144
00:49:30,271 --> 00:49:33,361
Mm hm, it's perfect for you.
1145
00:49:34,754 --> 00:49:35,537
No.
1146
00:49:35,711 --> 00:49:37,017
Stop.
1147
00:49:37,191 --> 00:49:38,671
- Oh my gosh.
- Get outta here.
1148
00:49:38,845 --> 00:49:40,083
- Look at this.
- You gotta be kidding me.
1149
00:49:40,107 --> 00:49:41,848
Did you- Oh my gosh.
1150
00:49:42,022 --> 00:49:43,241
It's amazing.
1151
00:49:43,415 --> 00:49:44,242
I...
1152
00:49:44,416 --> 00:49:45,460
There's...
1153
00:49:45,634 --> 00:49:47,071
Literally I am in awe right now.
1154
00:49:47,245 --> 00:49:48,942
I mean, what are the odds?
1155
00:49:49,116 --> 00:49:49,943
We look so cute.
1156
00:49:50,117 --> 00:49:51,162
I feel like we need-
1157
00:49:51,336 --> 00:49:54,426
- Oh, great minds think alike.
1158
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,036
All right, okay.
1159
00:49:56,210 --> 00:49:57,255
Yeah.
1160
00:50:11,791 --> 00:50:13,532
I listened to
your podcast today.
1161
00:50:14,446 --> 00:50:15,795
Sounded like you and Paul
1162
00:50:15,969 --> 00:50:18,232
were having some
fun times in there.
1163
00:50:19,668 --> 00:50:21,192
I assume it went
well at his place
1164
00:50:21,366 --> 00:50:23,020
with the house decorating?
1165
00:50:23,194 --> 00:50:24,238
I'm afraid not.
1166
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:26,588
What are you talking about?
1167
00:50:26,762 --> 00:50:28,199
Well, first of all, I did go,
1168
00:50:28,373 --> 00:50:30,505
but I never made
it outta the car.
1169
00:50:30,679 --> 00:50:32,029
Did you chicken out?
1170
00:50:32,203 --> 00:50:34,074
No, I didn't make
it outta the car
1171
00:50:34,248 --> 00:50:35,728
because when I got there,
1172
00:50:35,902 --> 00:50:39,514
Paul walked out of his
house with Michale.
1173
00:50:40,820 --> 00:50:42,300
So, I left before
they could see me.
1174
00:50:43,388 --> 00:50:46,217
But what about today?
1175
00:50:46,391 --> 00:50:50,047
Well, yeah, we had
a moment, but then...
1176
00:50:51,048 --> 00:50:51,787
Michale.
1177
00:50:51,961 --> 00:50:53,441
Yep.
1178
00:50:53,615 --> 00:50:54,615
Hm.
1179
00:50:55,530 --> 00:50:56,530
Don't give up.
1180
00:50:57,619 --> 00:51:01,580
Honestly, I think I'm too late.
1181
00:51:01,754 --> 00:51:03,364
I missed my chance.
1182
00:51:03,538 --> 00:51:05,410
And honestly, it's
better this way.
1183
00:51:05,584 --> 00:51:08,021
She is perfect for him.
1184
00:51:08,195 --> 00:51:10,850
They're like two happy little
Christmas elves together.
1185
00:51:12,330 --> 00:51:15,115
Now I just need to focus on
making the network deal happen.
1186
00:51:29,999 --> 00:51:31,088
Hey.
1187
00:51:32,176 --> 00:51:33,481
Hi.
1188
00:51:33,655 --> 00:51:35,092
Paul, I'm sorry
for bothering you.
1189
00:51:35,266 --> 00:51:35,831
You're not bothering me at all.
1190
00:51:36,005 --> 00:51:37,005
What's up?
1191
00:51:38,617 --> 00:51:41,010
Can we meet for
breakfast in the morning?
1192
00:51:41,185 --> 00:51:42,490
Yeah, sure.
1193
00:51:42,664 --> 00:51:44,231
Office break room at eight?
1194
00:51:44,405 --> 00:51:46,320
No, away from the office.
1195
00:51:46,494 --> 00:51:49,323
Can we meet before we go in?
1196
00:51:50,803 --> 00:51:52,631
Yeah, sure.
1197
00:51:52,805 --> 00:51:53,936
Is everything okay?
1198
00:51:54,111 --> 00:51:55,286
Yeah, yeah.
1199
00:51:55,460 --> 00:51:56,939
Everything's fine.
1200
00:51:59,594 --> 00:52:00,987
We'll talk at the cafe.
1201
00:52:02,293 --> 00:52:03,642
Okay.
1202
00:52:03,816 --> 00:52:04,991
I'll see you in the morning.
1203
00:52:05,165 --> 00:52:06,165
Okay, bye.
1204
00:52:17,569 --> 00:52:18,831
Hey.
1205
00:52:19,005 --> 00:52:20,354
Oh, let me- I got you covered.
1206
00:52:20,528 --> 00:52:21,921
Oh, thanks, but I don't do-
1207
00:52:22,095 --> 00:52:23,159
- Do coffee for the
month of December?
1208
00:52:23,183 --> 00:52:24,619
I know, it's hot chocolate.
1209
00:52:26,143 --> 00:52:28,014
It really is a
wonderful month, isn't it?
1210
00:52:28,188 --> 00:52:29,188
Yeah.
1211
00:52:31,844 --> 00:52:32,845
So, what's goin' on?
1212
00:52:34,194 --> 00:52:36,196
Michale's not gonna
walk in here is she?
1213
00:52:37,502 --> 00:52:39,156
No.
1214
00:52:39,330 --> 00:52:40,742
Okay, I wanted to talk
to you away from Michale,
1215
00:52:40,766 --> 00:52:42,126
so that means away
from the office.
1216
00:52:42,202 --> 00:52:43,769
Okay.
1217
00:52:43,943 --> 00:52:45,743
You've been spending
a lot of time with her.
1218
00:52:45,814 --> 00:52:47,512
Yeah, she's been really helpful
1219
00:52:47,686 --> 00:52:50,558
and a lot of fun to do the
Christmas challenges with.
1220
00:52:50,732 --> 00:52:51,732
I know.
1221
00:52:53,387 --> 00:52:56,695
Where do we stand
on the network deal?
1222
00:52:59,698 --> 00:53:01,090
We don't really talk
1223
00:53:01,265 --> 00:53:02,875
that much business
when we're together.
1224
00:53:03,049 --> 00:53:05,007
I mean, we talk about
you and the podcast,
1225
00:53:05,182 --> 00:53:09,011
but not exactly where we
stand with the network per se.
1226
00:53:10,622 --> 00:53:12,556
Okay, well, we're coming
to the end of the month
1227
00:53:12,580 --> 00:53:13,755
and soon she's gonna go back
1228
00:53:13,929 --> 00:53:15,931
to wherever it is she came from
1229
00:53:16,105 --> 00:53:19,021
and I wanna make sure that
we did everything possible
1230
00:53:19,196 --> 00:53:20,327
to make this happen.
1231
00:53:22,111 --> 00:53:24,549
So, what can I do
to win her over?
1232
00:53:26,420 --> 00:53:29,597
She thinks you're awesome,
and she loves the podcast.
1233
00:53:31,295 --> 00:53:32,295
I don't know.
1234
00:53:33,688 --> 00:53:35,473
Maybe just spend
more time with her,
1235
00:53:36,952 --> 00:53:39,651
give her the chance to
get to know the real you,
1236
00:53:39,825 --> 00:53:43,394
see how awesome and amazing
the real Laura Ross is,
1237
00:53:43,568 --> 00:53:46,701
and then like me, she'll
fall completely in love with,
1238
00:53:46,875 --> 00:53:49,400
you know, um,
she'll fall in love
1239
00:53:49,574 --> 00:53:51,793
with the idea of
acquiring the podcast
1240
00:53:51,967 --> 00:53:56,015
and be a win-win for everyone.
1241
00:54:02,151 --> 00:54:04,458
So, I'll join you two on some
1242
00:54:04,632 --> 00:54:07,461
of the upcoming Christmas
challenges, I guess.
1243
00:54:07,635 --> 00:54:08,635
Yeah.
1244
00:54:08,767 --> 00:54:09,898
Yeah, that would be great.
1245
00:54:11,639 --> 00:54:12,639
Great.
1246
00:54:13,685 --> 00:54:15,140
Only eight more
days until Christmas,
1247
00:54:15,164 --> 00:54:17,689
so let's make sure
to make 'em count.
1248
00:54:17,863 --> 00:54:18,994
Yeah.
1249
00:54:20,344 --> 00:54:21,582
Man, I do love hot chocolate.
1250
00:54:21,606 --> 00:54:22,302
You're such a child.
1251
00:54:22,476 --> 00:54:23,825
At heart, yes.
1252
00:54:23,999 --> 00:54:24,999
A child at heart.
1253
00:54:30,528 --> 00:54:32,921
It is one week till Christmas,
1254
00:54:33,095 --> 00:54:35,228
and we are getting down
to the nitty gritty
1255
00:54:35,402 --> 00:54:37,056
of this Christmas Challenge.
1256
00:54:37,230 --> 00:54:38,990
I really hope that you've
been enjoying yourself,
1257
00:54:39,014 --> 00:54:42,540
either listening to our exploits
or joining along with us.
1258
00:54:42,714 --> 00:54:44,759
Paul, will you tell
us what you have next?
1259
00:54:51,592 --> 00:54:54,073
Apparently Paul has decided
to keep this one a secret
1260
00:54:54,247 --> 00:54:55,988
and enjoy it all by himself.
1261
00:54:56,162 --> 00:54:59,513
No, there's no way I would
deprive you of this one, Laura.
1262
00:54:59,687 --> 00:55:02,821
Oo, I don't like
the sound of that.
1263
00:55:02,995 --> 00:55:07,042
Today we are going to
be visiting Santa Claus.
1264
00:55:08,479 --> 00:55:11,177
Like, take a kid to Santa?
1265
00:55:11,351 --> 00:55:13,222
No, you wish.
1266
00:55:14,441 --> 00:55:16,704
"As a child, one of the
most cherished moments
1267
00:55:16,878 --> 00:55:19,228
was always going to visit Santa.
1268
00:55:19,403 --> 00:55:21,796
You sit on his lap,
he listens to you
1269
00:55:21,970 --> 00:55:25,147
and his presence magically
brings you warmth and love
1270
00:55:25,322 --> 00:55:28,020
and you usually get to
walk away with a candy cane
1271
00:55:28,194 --> 00:55:31,023
and an unmatched sense
of wonder and excitement.
1272
00:55:31,197 --> 00:55:34,156
It is now time as adults
1273
00:55:34,331 --> 00:55:36,855
for you to go and
regain that feeling."
1274
00:55:39,292 --> 00:55:41,729
So I'm all for this,
1275
00:55:41,903 --> 00:55:46,821
but I think this should be
a group activity, right?
1276
00:55:51,478 --> 00:55:53,567
Let's all go see Santa.
1277
00:56:23,728 --> 00:56:25,556
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1278
00:56:25,730 --> 00:56:29,255
Now, Sammy, I know you've been
a very good girl this year.
1279
00:56:29,429 --> 00:56:30,952
How do you know?
1280
00:56:31,126 --> 00:56:32,780
Well, because you're
on the nice list.
1281
00:56:32,954 --> 00:56:35,740
But I haven't
checked it twice yet.
1282
00:56:36,871 --> 00:56:38,612
You have been good, haven't you?
1283
00:56:38,786 --> 00:56:40,614
Yeah, I was really good.
1284
00:56:40,788 --> 00:56:42,137
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1285
00:56:42,311 --> 00:56:44,444
Well, that's so good to hear.
1286
00:56:44,618 --> 00:56:45,619
Well, in that case,
1287
00:56:45,793 --> 00:56:47,099
I think you can count on getting
1288
00:56:47,273 --> 00:56:49,231
that robot for
Christmas this year.
1289
00:56:50,668 --> 00:56:51,668
Does that sound good?
1290
00:56:51,756 --> 00:56:52,800
- Yeah.
- Good.
1291
00:56:52,974 --> 00:56:54,411
Ho, ho, ho, ho.
1292
00:56:54,585 --> 00:56:56,630
Have a very Merry Christmas.
1293
00:57:01,374 --> 00:57:02,549
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1294
00:57:02,723 --> 00:57:03,723
Thank you, Santa.
1295
00:57:03,768 --> 00:57:04,812
You're welcome.
1296
00:57:06,031 --> 00:57:07,467
I really think we got a lot.
1297
00:57:07,641 --> 00:57:09,077
Come here.
1298
00:57:09,251 --> 00:57:10,664
Was this so much fun?
Ho, ho, ho, ho.
1299
00:57:10,688 --> 00:57:11,471
- Say bye.
- Bye Santa, love you.
1300
00:57:11,645 --> 00:57:12,777
Okay, let's go.
1301
00:57:12,951 --> 00:57:14,561
Come on.
Ho, ho, ho, ho.
1302
00:57:16,433 --> 00:57:20,654
And that is what we are trying
to recapture for ourselves.
1303
00:57:20,828 --> 00:57:23,048
I can't ever remember
being that happy.
1304
00:57:26,355 --> 00:57:27,355
Hello there.
1305
00:57:28,096 --> 00:57:29,446
Is your little one around?
1306
00:57:29,620 --> 00:57:31,056
Did they run to the potty?
1307
00:57:31,230 --> 00:57:33,798
Oh no, we're here to see Santa.
1308
00:57:34,755 --> 00:57:35,755
What do you mean?
1309
00:57:37,584 --> 00:57:39,760
We're here to see Santa.
1310
00:57:39,934 --> 00:57:41,893
Oh.
1311
00:57:42,067 --> 00:57:43,590
Okay.
1312
00:57:43,764 --> 00:57:45,505
Well in that case I guess,
1313
00:57:46,767 --> 00:57:48,856
you are about to
meet Santa Claus.
1314
00:57:49,030 --> 00:57:51,163
He's just the greatest, right?
1315
00:57:51,337 --> 00:57:52,512
Yeah.
1316
00:57:52,686 --> 00:57:53,707
We're really excited Yeah.
1317
00:57:53,731 --> 00:57:54,558
To meet Santa Claus.
1318
00:57:54,732 --> 00:57:56,211
He's super great.
1319
00:57:56,385 --> 00:57:57,212
This is gonna be the
best day of my life.
1320
00:57:57,386 --> 00:57:58,779
I love Santa so much.
1321
00:57:58,953 --> 00:57:59,650
I just can't even.
Okay, that's good.
1322
00:57:59,824 --> 00:58:01,521
That's enough.
1323
00:58:01,695 --> 00:58:04,568
Now remember, Santa has
lots of other kids to see,
1324
00:58:04,742 --> 00:58:06,657
so you can't stay
up there too long,
1325
00:58:06,831 --> 00:58:10,182
but he loves you so much and
is so excited to meet you.
1326
00:58:10,356 --> 00:58:11,879
We can even take your picture.
1327
00:58:12,053 --> 00:58:14,752
My good friend Chipper
right over there
1328
00:58:14,926 --> 00:58:16,841
just got a new camera
last Christmas,
1329
00:58:17,015 --> 00:58:19,539
and he would be happy
to take your photo,
1330
00:58:19,713 --> 00:58:22,063
or we can use mommy and
daddy's camera as well.
1331
00:58:23,543 --> 00:58:25,676
Not a daddy, but
you can use my camera.
1332
00:58:27,460 --> 00:58:29,201
All right.
1333
00:58:29,375 --> 00:58:30,961
It looks like he just finished
up with his last friend.
1334
00:58:30,985 --> 00:58:32,770
Who wants to go first?
1335
00:58:32,944 --> 00:58:34,423
I'll go first.
1336
00:58:34,598 --> 00:58:35,120
Right this way, little girl.
1337
00:58:35,294 --> 00:58:36,294
Okay.
1338
00:58:36,948 --> 00:58:38,427
Well hello, little girl.
1339
00:58:38,602 --> 00:58:39,753
- Hi, Santa.
- Ho, ho, ho, ho.
1340
00:58:39,777 --> 00:58:41,387
It's so nice to see you.
1341
00:58:41,561 --> 00:58:42,997
Yes.
1342
00:58:43,171 --> 00:58:44,497
Come over here and
sit on Santa's knee.
1343
00:58:44,521 --> 00:58:45,585
- Oh.
- I'm not gonna break,
1344
00:58:45,609 --> 00:58:48,046
you know?
Okay.
1345
00:58:48,220 --> 00:58:49,613
I'll sit right here.
1346
00:58:49,787 --> 00:58:51,227
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1347
00:58:51,353 --> 00:58:54,661
Now, have you been a
good girl this year?
1348
00:58:54,835 --> 00:58:57,751
Yeah, for the most part.
1349
00:58:57,925 --> 00:58:58,925
Hm.
1350
00:58:59,797 --> 00:59:01,059
That's nice to hear.
1351
00:59:02,582 --> 00:59:03,582
You know, Laura,
1352
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,021
we all make mistakes sometimes
1353
00:59:07,195 --> 00:59:10,111
and may upset our mommies
and daddies and our friends,
1354
00:59:10,285 --> 00:59:13,462
but as long as we
work really hard
1355
00:59:13,637 --> 00:59:16,335
to make it right and be good,
1356
00:59:17,989 --> 00:59:21,253
you will for sure get
on that nice list.
1357
00:59:21,427 --> 00:59:22,427
Thanks, Santa.
1358
00:59:22,559 --> 00:59:24,299
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1359
00:59:24,473 --> 00:59:26,998
Now, what is it you
would really like
1360
00:59:27,172 --> 00:59:29,130
for Christmas this year?
1361
00:59:29,304 --> 00:59:31,611
I think I know what I want.
1362
00:59:40,925 --> 00:59:42,361
I know exactly what I want.
1363
00:59:42,535 --> 00:59:45,233
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
1364
01:00:40,332 --> 01:00:41,899
Family photo.
1365
01:00:43,161 --> 01:00:44,161
Very fun.
1366
01:00:45,772 --> 01:00:47,992
Looks like it's time
for another field trip.
1367
01:00:50,124 --> 01:00:51,764
Okay, everybody scooch in.
I have a lot.
1368
01:00:51,865 --> 01:00:53,606
- Oh.
- Scooch in.
1369
01:00:53,780 --> 01:00:55,940
We're taking a family photo
and you guys are my family.
1370
01:00:56,043 --> 01:00:57,915
Thank you so much
for doing this.
1371
01:00:58,089 --> 01:00:59,525
I can take the picture.
1372
01:00:59,699 --> 01:01:01,155
Well, thank you,
but you're family too.
1373
01:01:01,179 --> 01:01:02,006
You've been here
for almost a month.
1374
01:01:02,180 --> 01:01:03,572
Get on in here.
1375
01:01:03,747 --> 01:01:05,009
And I can figure out how to do
1376
01:01:05,183 --> 01:01:07,228
the timer on Paul's
camera, is it?
1377
01:01:07,402 --> 01:01:10,014
Paul, do you think you
could figure out the timer?
1378
01:01:10,188 --> 01:01:11,929
I am not so good
with that camera.
1379
01:01:12,103 --> 01:01:15,672
Austin, could you set
it up on a timer for us?
1380
01:01:15,846 --> 01:01:17,195
Thank you so much, Paul.
1381
01:01:17,369 --> 01:01:19,240
Thank you, Austin.
1382
01:01:19,414 --> 01:01:20,654
Okay, where should I?
1383
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:21,895
Oh, squeeze in right here.
1384
01:01:22,069 --> 01:01:23,069
Okay.
1385
01:01:24,376 --> 01:01:25,376
Great.
1386
01:01:26,421 --> 01:01:28,989
Everybody look at the camera.
1387
01:01:29,163 --> 01:01:30,556
Everyone say podcast.
1388
01:01:30,730 --> 01:01:31,730
Podcast!
1389
01:01:34,603 --> 01:01:36,562
Let's take a look.
1390
01:01:48,269 --> 01:01:49,270
All righty.
1391
01:01:49,444 --> 01:01:50,564
Well, thanks for coming over
1392
01:01:50,619 --> 01:01:51,771
to help make gingerbread houses.
1393
01:01:51,795 --> 01:01:53,318
I think this is gonna be fun.
1394
01:01:53,492 --> 01:01:55,035
Well, I would've had
you over to my house,
1395
01:01:55,059 --> 01:01:56,579
but I figured it'd
be more festive here
1396
01:01:56,625 --> 01:01:58,145
and I don't wanna
make any assumptions,
1397
01:01:58,279 --> 01:01:59,759
but did you happen to have
1398
01:01:59,933 --> 01:02:01,805
all of these ingredients
already in your house?
1399
01:02:01,979 --> 01:02:04,459
That assumption would be
completely correct, yes.
1400
01:02:04,633 --> 01:02:06,592
But what Christmas
would be complete
1401
01:02:06,766 --> 01:02:09,508
without all the gingerbread
house fixins, right?
1402
01:02:09,682 --> 01:02:11,597
Well, thank you guys
for letting me tag along.
1403
01:02:11,771 --> 01:02:13,140
I would've had you
over to my hotel,
1404
01:02:13,164 --> 01:02:15,601
but well, it's a hotel.
1405
01:02:15,775 --> 01:02:17,081
That's a good point.
1406
01:02:17,255 --> 01:02:18,865
So, have you all
done this before?
1407
01:02:19,039 --> 01:02:20,606
I have.
1408
01:02:20,780 --> 01:02:21,931
It's been a tradition in my
family since I was a kid.
1409
01:02:21,955 --> 01:02:22,955
Oh, cool.
1410
01:02:23,043 --> 01:02:24,523
Fun.
1411
01:02:24,697 --> 01:02:26,283
I'm sure I did it
as a kid or in school.
1412
01:02:26,307 --> 01:02:28,570
I just have no recollection
and I have not done it
1413
01:02:28,745 --> 01:02:30,747
since I entered the
boredom of adulthood.
1414
01:02:30,921 --> 01:02:32,923
Hm, well, before we begin.
1415
01:02:34,925 --> 01:02:37,884
♪ Up on the house
top reindeer pause ♪
1416
01:02:38,058 --> 01:02:38,885
Oh.
1417
01:02:39,059 --> 01:02:40,582
Hm.
1418
01:02:40,757 --> 01:02:42,386
Gotta set the tone
for the evening, right?
1419
01:02:42,410 --> 01:02:43,629
Okay, let's get started.
1420
01:02:43,803 --> 01:02:45,500
Oh, how do we do that?
1421
01:02:45,674 --> 01:02:48,068
Okay, so your plate
is your workstation,
1422
01:02:48,242 --> 01:02:50,331
but also think of it
as your foundation.
1423
01:02:50,505 --> 01:02:52,825
The walls and the roof are
gonna be made outta gingerbread.
1424
01:02:52,986 --> 01:02:54,988
Is that why they're
called gingerbread houses?
1425
01:02:55,162 --> 01:02:56,163
You know what?
1426
01:02:56,337 --> 01:02:57,488
I never thought of it that way,
1427
01:02:57,512 --> 01:02:58,792
but you might be onto something.
1428
01:02:58,862 --> 01:02:59,862
I'm so wise.
1429
01:03:01,342 --> 01:03:03,214
And then you're gonna use icing
1430
01:03:03,388 --> 01:03:04,911
to hold everything together,
1431
01:03:05,085 --> 01:03:06,933
and I suggest getting a
good layer on the bottom
1432
01:03:06,957 --> 01:03:08,393
so it holds the walls up,
1433
01:03:08,567 --> 01:03:10,525
but if you want to
cheat a little bit,
1434
01:03:10,699 --> 01:03:14,573
you can use a few of these
toothpicks to prop the walls up.
1435
01:03:14,747 --> 01:03:17,228
But don't tell anyone I
gave them to you, okay?
1436
01:03:17,402 --> 01:03:18,640
Thanks for lookin' out for me.
1437
01:03:18,664 --> 01:03:19,752
- No problem.
- Hm.
1438
01:03:21,014 --> 01:03:22,534
Other than that,
the sky's the limit.
1439
01:03:22,581 --> 01:03:24,365
You can make any kinda
house you want to.
1440
01:03:24,539 --> 01:03:27,368
I suggest probably putting a
door and some windows on it,
1441
01:03:27,542 --> 01:03:29,588
but hey, you do you.
1442
01:03:29,762 --> 01:03:31,938
Who are the residents
of these houses?
1443
01:03:32,112 --> 01:03:33,742
Oh, that would be those
fine friends of mine.
1444
01:03:33,766 --> 01:03:35,202
Oh.
1445
01:03:35,376 --> 01:03:37,683
Did you make
gingerbread men and women?
1446
01:03:37,857 --> 01:03:39,250
Oh yeah.
1447
01:03:39,424 --> 01:03:40,618
Do you think I would
work with this one
1448
01:03:40,642 --> 01:03:42,122
for as long as I have and not
1449
01:03:42,296 --> 01:03:43,994
have a little sense
of female empowerment?
1450
01:03:44,168 --> 01:03:44,821
Good on you.
1451
01:03:44,995 --> 01:03:45,822
Hm.
1452
01:03:45,996 --> 01:03:46,692
Let's get started.
1453
01:03:46,866 --> 01:03:47,911
Let's do it.
1454
01:03:48,085 --> 01:03:49,347
All right, let's start.
1455
01:03:51,175 --> 01:03:56,049
Okay, so where is
my foundation from?
1456
01:03:56,876 --> 01:04:00,749

Well, ladies, we did it.
1473
01:05:06,815 --> 01:05:08,992
Or looks like two of us did it
1474
01:05:09,166 --> 01:05:13,083
and one of us sort of did it.
1475
01:05:14,388 --> 01:05:17,304
Hey, my gingerbread
house has a story.
1476
01:05:17,478 --> 01:05:20,655
It's a jailhouse, and
people in jail deserve
1477
01:05:20,829 --> 01:05:24,007
a happy Christmas as
well, and this person is,
1478
01:05:24,181 --> 01:05:26,261
he wanted to be home so
badly he climbed all the way,
1479
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,489
like dug a hole all year
long and he's coming out
1480
01:05:28,663 --> 01:05:30,337
with his cellmate and
they're gonna run home
1481
01:05:30,361 --> 01:05:32,232
just in time for
Christmas dinner.
1482
01:05:33,755 --> 01:05:35,951
Yeah, I think the takeaway
here is there's no wrong way
1483
01:05:35,975 --> 01:05:38,282
to celebrate Christmas.
1484
01:05:38,456 --> 01:05:39,544
Yeah.
1485
01:05:39,718 --> 01:05:40,718
Merry Christmas.
1486
01:05:42,068 --> 01:05:43,374
Are you sure you didn't break
1487
01:05:43,548 --> 01:05:44,868
through the roof
of the jailhouse?
1488
01:05:45,028 --> 01:05:46,092
Well, that's the guard.
1489
01:05:46,116 --> 01:05:47,116
- Oh.
- I see it.
1490
01:05:47,247 --> 01:05:48,287
It's like a control tower.
1491
01:05:53,384 --> 01:05:54,665
Are you ready for this one?
1492
01:05:54,689 --> 01:05:55,690
Yes.
1493
01:05:55,864 --> 01:05:57,127
I don't know if you're ready.
1494
01:05:57,301 --> 01:05:58,693
Oh, come on, bring it on.
1495
01:05:58,867 --> 01:06:00,695
A good old fashioned
Christmas party.
1496
01:06:01,783 --> 01:06:03,220
All right, folks.
1497
01:06:03,394 --> 01:06:06,136
We are going to have a party.
1498
01:06:06,310 --> 01:06:08,703
I imagine people all over
the office are slowly closing
1499
01:06:08,877 --> 01:06:11,837
their computers and
getting ready to celebrate.
1500
01:06:12,011 --> 01:06:13,317
Well, keep in mind not all
1501
01:06:13,491 --> 01:06:15,275
of our listeners
work in an office.
1502
01:06:17,408 --> 01:06:19,149
That's right.
1503
01:06:19,323 --> 01:06:21,499
You can translate this to
mean whatever works for you.
1504
01:06:21,673 --> 01:06:23,196
As long as you're celebrating
1505
01:06:23,370 --> 01:06:25,329
this joyful season with
the people in your life.
1506

Isn't that something?
1522
01:07:44,147 --> 01:07:46,018
Yes, thank you to Sarah
1523
01:07:46,192 --> 01:07:47,952
from our marketing department
for sharing her gifts with us.
1524
01:07:47,976 --> 01:07:49,717
This is really special.
1525
01:07:49,891 --> 01:07:51,913
If any of you are talent
scouts here in the audience,
1526
01:07:51,937 --> 01:07:53,504
she is the real deal.
1527
01:07:53,678 --> 01:07:54,983
Mm hm.
1528
01:07:55,158 --> 01:07:56,550
And we still have plenty of room
1529
01:07:56,724 --> 01:07:58,093
if anybody wants to
sign up to show off
1530
01:07:58,117 --> 01:07:59,237
their hidden talent tonight.
1531
01:08:01,207 --> 01:08:03,011
Oh, and if you haven't given
out your Secret Santa yet,
1532
01:08:03,035 --> 01:08:05,472
tonight would be the perfect
opportunity to do so.
1533
01:08:06,647 --> 01:08:08,084
Oh, who do we have next?
1534
01:08:08,258 --> 01:08:11,435
Oh, next up we have
Jude who juggles.
1535
01:08:11,609 --> 01:08:12,958
Wow.
1536
01:08:13,132 --> 01:08:14,240
One of our technical
directors at the studio.
1537
01:08:14,264 --> 01:08:15,544
Apparently he has other talents.
1538
01:08:15,613 --> 01:08:16,917
- Yes.
- Come on up, Jude.
1539
01:08:49,081 --> 01:08:50,430
Wow, how about that?
1540
01:08:53,041 --> 01:08:54,041
Wow.
1541
01:08:54,217 --> 01:08:56,175
Did you know Jude could juggle?
1542
01:08:57,698 --> 01:08:59,328
When he started showing up
at the office a few months ago
1543
01:08:59,352 --> 01:09:00,875
with bruises all over his arms,
1544
01:09:01,049 --> 01:09:02,929
I thought there might be
something up with that.
1545
01:09:03,008 --> 01:09:04,594
I feel like the practice
was probably worth it.
1546
01:09:04,618 --> 01:09:05,768
Do you know how to juggle?
1547
01:09:05,792 --> 01:09:07,185
I do, yes.
1548
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:08,642
I juggle things at
the office everyday.
1549
01:09:08,666 --> 01:09:09,449
Very funny.
1550
01:09:09,622 --> 01:09:10,362
What about you?
1551
01:09:10,537 --> 01:09:11,625
I do not, no.
1552
01:09:11,799 --> 01:09:12,907
Well, there's no time to learn
1553
01:09:12,931 --> 01:09:15,281
like the present is there?
1554
01:09:15,455 --> 01:09:16,606
Hey, Jude, can we get a couple
1555
01:09:16,630 --> 01:09:18,327
of those juggling balls up here?
1556
01:09:19,546 --> 01:09:21,157
Great.
1557
01:09:21,331 --> 01:09:22,069
- Are you serious?
- Why don't you give it a go?
1558
01:09:22,245 --> 01:09:23,245
Yeah.
Cool.
1559
01:09:26,205 --> 01:09:27,205
Here goes nothin'.
1560
01:09:28,468 --> 01:09:29,121
Wow.
1561
01:09:29,295 --> 01:09:30,469
Oo.
1562
01:09:30,644 --> 01:09:34,648
Woo!
1563
01:09:34,822 --> 01:09:36,476
Thank you, thank you.
1564
01:09:36,649 --> 01:09:38,913
- Great.
- Very wonderful attempt.
1565
01:09:41,046 --> 01:09:44,092
Next up we have John, the
nicest custodian in the state.
1566
01:09:44,267 --> 01:09:45,587
He's gonna tell
us all the secrets
1567
01:09:45,746 --> 01:09:47,426
that he learned by
going through our stuff.
1568
01:09:47,531 --> 01:09:48,571
Excuse me?
1569
01:09:48,662 --> 01:09:49,488
Yeah, I'm just kidding.
1570
01:09:49,663 --> 01:09:50,663
He's gonna do magic!
1571
01:09:51,535 --> 01:09:52,970
Everyone, give it up for John.
1572
01:10:16,124 --> 01:10:18,015
I can't believe you guys put
this Christmas party together
1573
01:10:18,039 --> 01:10:19,127
on such short notice,
1574
01:10:19,302 --> 01:10:20,582
and it was so thoughtful for you
1575
01:10:20,737 --> 01:10:22,337
to let all the employees
out early today.
1576
01:10:22,434 --> 01:10:24,523
Well, thanks, but
it's all credit to Paul.
1577
01:10:24,698 --> 01:10:25,786
Oh, come on.
1578
01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:27,614
He's the super producer here
1579
01:10:27,788 --> 01:10:30,138
and him putting together
this party is his talent.
1580
01:10:30,313 --> 01:10:33,011
I have been very impressed
with Paul in my time here.
1581
01:10:34,317 --> 01:10:35,317
Thank you.
1582
01:10:36,057 --> 01:10:37,233
Laura, this is for you.
1583
01:10:37,407 --> 01:10:38,755
Oh.
1584
01:10:38,930 --> 01:10:41,106
I drew your name
for Secret Santa.
1585
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:42,412
Thank you.
1586
01:10:43,587 --> 01:10:44,936
This is-
1587
01:10:45,110 --> 01:10:45,763
- Open it!
1588
01:10:45,937 --> 01:10:46,937
Oh, 'kay.
1589
01:10:48,983 --> 01:10:50,289
Oh.
1590
01:10:50,463 --> 01:10:52,596
I didn't know what to get you.
1591
01:10:52,770 --> 01:10:56,034
I mean, you're Miss
"Modernly Independent,"
1592
01:10:56,208 --> 01:10:58,384
and you're so good
at everything,
1593
01:10:59,864 --> 01:11:02,388
but then I saw you try to
juggle, and it was great, and-
1594
01:11:02,562 --> 01:11:03,911
- It's okay, I was horrible.
1595
01:11:05,173 --> 01:11:06,813
Well, I thought you
might like to learn,
1596
01:11:06,914 --> 01:11:08,675
so I asked Jude and he
said you could have these,
1597
01:11:08,699 --> 01:11:10,744
so Merry Christmas.
1598
01:11:10,918 --> 01:11:11,963
Thank you.
1599
01:11:12,137 --> 01:11:13,921
Sincerely, thank you.
1600
01:11:14,094 --> 01:11:17,184
This is so thoughtful and
yes, I will be mastering this.
1601
01:11:18,752 --> 01:11:22,321
Okay, well, I have to go
get set up for my talent.
1602
01:11:22,495 --> 01:11:23,148
I'm up next.
1603
01:11:23,322 --> 01:11:24,496
Yes.
1604
01:11:24,671 --> 01:11:25,803
Have fun.
Good luck.
1605
01:11:27,370 --> 01:11:30,155
Wow, she's just somethin'.
1606
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:42,689
Our next performer
is a new member
1607
01:11:42,862 --> 01:11:44,561
to our team as of recently.
1608
01:11:44,735 --> 01:11:46,954
Yes, she has been a
wonderful addition to the team
1609
01:11:47,128 --> 01:11:50,044
and you've no doubt seen her
running around the office.
1610
01:11:50,218 --> 01:11:52,177
Yes, please welcome our talented
1611
01:11:52,351 --> 01:11:54,657
and valuable intern, Jasmine.
1612
01:12:00,968 --> 01:12:02,840
Hey, everyone.
1613
01:12:03,014 --> 01:12:06,409
I'm here today to talk to you
about scuba diving, all right?
1614
01:12:06,583 --> 01:12:08,541
And what we need to
know first of all
1615
01:12:08,715 --> 01:12:12,415
is that safety is
number one, okay?
1616
01:12:12,589 --> 01:12:15,200
So, we wanna get our
buoyancy clearing all set.
1617
01:12:15,374 --> 01:12:17,637
Make sure you have a
safe zone of entry.
1618
01:12:17,811 --> 01:12:19,639
All right?
1619
01:12:19,813 --> 01:12:21,835
Let's check our pressure next,
our air pressure, all right?
1620
01:12:21,859 --> 01:12:23,339
We wanna make sure
1621
01:12:23,513 --> 01:12:25,012
we have enough time
down there, all right?
1622
01:12:25,036 --> 01:12:26,230
'Cause if you don't
have enough time,
1623
01:12:26,254 --> 01:12:27,691
you're gonna run out of time,
1624
01:12:27,865 --> 01:12:29,408
you know what I'm saying?
1625
01:12:29,432 --> 01:12:30,583
We don't want that, all right?
1626
01:12:30,607 --> 01:12:31,608
So we've got air checked.
1627
01:12:31,782 --> 01:12:32,846
We got our buoyancy checked.
1628
01:12:32,870 --> 01:12:34,437
All right.
1629
01:12:34,611 --> 01:12:36,691
Make sure we have our water
nice and nice and toasty.
1630
01:12:36,743 --> 01:12:38,353
Just kidding, you
can't control that.
1631
01:12:38,528 --> 01:12:39,678
You kinda just gotta do whatever
you're gonna do, you know?
1632
01:12:39,702 --> 01:12:40,398
All right.
1633
01:12:40,573 --> 01:12:42,053
So, air check.
1634
01:12:43,532 --> 01:12:44,228
Cool, all good.
1635
01:12:44,403 --> 01:12:45,403
All right.
1636
01:12:45,491 --> 01:12:47,145
And then we're gonna enter.
1637
01:12:47,318 --> 01:12:48,842
We'll do entry, that's next.
1638
01:12:49,843 --> 01:12:51,323
All right, we're in the water.
1639
01:12:53,978 --> 01:12:56,459
All right,.
1640
01:12:56,633 --> 01:12:57,633
Interesting.
1641
01:12:58,852 --> 01:13:00,288
Whoa!
1642
01:13:00,463 --> 01:13:03,161
No one's gonna believe
that we saw that.
1643
01:13:03,335 --> 01:13:04,945
We will, we'll know.
1644
01:13:05,119 --> 01:13:07,165
All right, let's put out a call.
1645
01:13:07,339 --> 01:13:08,775
Woo!
1646
01:13:08,949 --> 01:13:10,429
We got limited air here, guys.
1647
01:13:10,603 --> 01:13:11,603
We gotta be careful.
1648
01:13:11,735 --> 01:13:13,084
All right, so solid form.
1649
01:13:13,258 --> 01:13:14,618
We got the froggy
as the first one.
1650
01:13:14,693 --> 01:13:15,693
Goin' on.
1651
01:13:15,782 --> 01:13:17,305
All right.
Ew.
1652
01:13:17,480 --> 01:13:20,874
All these limbs, we're
gonna make it happen, okay?
1653
01:13:21,048 --> 01:13:22,789
All right, there we go.
1654
01:13:22,963 --> 01:13:24,008
Look at us go.
1655
01:13:24,182 --> 01:13:25,531
Look at that, that's a whale!
1656
01:13:25,705 --> 01:13:27,446
Wow!
1657
01:13:27,620 --> 01:13:29,013
You won't be able to see that
1658
01:13:29,187 --> 01:13:30,971
without being in
solid form, all right?
1659
01:13:31,145 --> 01:13:33,254
How much longer do you think
we should let this go on?
1660
01:13:33,278 --> 01:13:35,846
From the ground, up to the top.
1661
01:13:36,020 --> 01:13:38,152
Yeah, I think we should
put a stop to this.
1662
01:13:38,326 --> 01:13:39,675
Yeah, I think so.
1663
01:13:39,850 --> 01:13:41,329
Actually, Laura,
1664
01:13:41,504 --> 01:13:43,264
do you think you could
handle this on your own?
1665
01:13:43,288 --> 01:13:44,985
I had Paul for Secret Santa
1666
01:13:45,159 --> 01:13:46,465
and I was kinda hoping I could
1667
01:13:46,639 --> 01:13:49,163
give him his gift
if that's okay.
1668
01:13:49,337 --> 01:13:50,643
Yeah, sure.
1669
01:13:50,817 --> 01:13:51,644
That's...
1670
01:13:51,818 --> 01:13:52,818
- Cool.
- Don't!
1671
01:13:52,993 --> 01:13:54,559
It's dangerous.
1672
01:13:54,734 --> 01:13:56,910
The real question is when
you're under that big blue,
1673
01:13:57,084 --> 01:13:58,912
you know, and you're lookin' up,
1674
01:13:59,085 --> 01:14:01,393
think about what your future
self on land would say.
1675
01:14:01,567 --> 01:14:03,482
Would they want you
to have this journey?
1676
01:14:03,656 --> 01:14:05,397
Think so, but I'll
tell you what,
1677
01:14:05,571 --> 01:14:07,573
you can't go under
unless you got safety.
1678
01:14:07,746 --> 01:14:09,139
Underwater safety up top foot,
1679
01:14:09,314 --> 01:14:10,750
you know what I'm sayin'?
1680
01:14:10,924 --> 01:14:11,708
All right, thank you
so much, everybody.
1681
01:14:11,882 --> 01:14:13,273
Wow, thank you so much
1682
01:14:13,449 --> 01:14:15,407
to our resident
scuba diver, Jasmine!
1683
01:14:18,236 --> 01:14:19,716
Thank you.
1684
01:14:19,889 --> 01:14:21,457
I was afraid I would
look silly up here,
1685
01:14:21,630 --> 01:14:23,675
but scuba really is one
of my biggest passions,
1686
01:14:23,850 --> 01:14:25,504
so thank you.
1687
01:14:25,678 --> 01:14:27,419
You looked great.
1688
01:14:27,593 --> 01:14:30,291
Really great, and educational.
1689
01:14:32,163 --> 01:14:34,861
That is a tough act to follow.
1690
01:14:35,035 --> 01:14:37,777
So, I'll take my turn.
1691
01:14:38,865 --> 01:14:40,171
Ladies and gentlemen,
1692
01:14:40,344 --> 01:14:42,129
it is time for a
Christmas classic
1693
01:14:42,303 --> 01:14:45,045
that I will try to do my best,
but I would really love it
1694
01:14:45,219 --> 01:14:46,379
if you would join in with me.
1695
01:14:46,438 --> 01:14:47,918
I'm sure you'll know it.
1696
01:14:48,092 --> 01:14:50,094
It is a Welsh melody
from the 16th century
1697
01:14:50,268 --> 01:14:53,576
by beloved Scottish
maestro, Thomas Oliphant.
1698
01:14:54,751 --> 01:14:57,405
♪ Deck the halls with
boughs of holly ♪
1699
01:14:57,580 --> 01:15:00,583

01:15:22,866 --> 01:15:24,737
You guys are wonderful at this.
1707
01:15:24,911 --> 01:15:27,434
Now, the original Welsh lyrics.
1708
01:15:27,610 --> 01:15:28,959
Just kidding.
1709
01:15:31,788 --> 01:15:34,530
We are gonna have
Sarah from marketing
1710
01:15:34,704 --> 01:15:36,923
come back up and
entertain all of us.
1711
01:15:37,097 --> 01:15:38,403
Sarah from marketing!
1712
01:15:45,062 --> 01:15:48,326
You sure know a lot about
Christmas Carol history, huh?
1713
01:15:48,500 --> 01:15:50,546
I did do a little
bit of research, yes.
1714
01:15:51,590 --> 01:15:53,244
Well, I thought it was great.
1715
01:15:54,201 --> 01:15:55,201
Thank you.
1716
01:15:58,554 --> 01:16:00,294
Do you know where Paul is?
1717
01:16:00,468 --> 01:16:02,068
Michale said she
had a present for him,
1718
01:16:02,121 --> 01:16:03,950
but she wanted to give
it to him in private.
1719
01:16:05,517 --> 01:16:06,517
Yeah.
1720
01:16:07,606 --> 01:16:09,695
They're really cute
together, aren't they?
1721
01:16:09,869 --> 01:16:10,696
Who?
1722
01:16:10,870 --> 01:16:12,393
Paul and Michale.
1723
01:16:12,568 --> 01:16:14,288
They're like two peas
in a pod with how much
1724
01:16:14,352 --> 01:16:17,137
they both love Christmas
and both being producers.
1725
01:16:17,311 --> 01:16:18,311
It's really cute.
1726
01:16:19,270 --> 01:16:20,271
Yeah.
1727
01:16:38,332 --> 01:16:39,856
And in conclusion,
1728
01:16:40,030 --> 01:16:42,815
I think we have the most
talented office around.
1729
01:16:45,469 --> 01:16:47,690
I totally agree.
1730
01:16:47,864 --> 01:16:49,664
I hope that you enjoyed
whatever festivities
1731
01:16:49,822 --> 01:16:50,996
you were able to put together
1732
01:16:51,171 --> 01:16:53,130
or are planning for the future.
1733
01:16:54,784 --> 01:16:56,481
And most importantly,
1734
01:16:56,655 --> 01:16:58,695
we hope you had time to
enjoy this with a loved one.
1735
01:17:02,094 --> 01:17:03,619
Let's move on to the next day.
1736
01:17:10,582 --> 01:17:12,976
"Some Christmas
traditions we all know,
1737
01:17:13,150 --> 01:17:14,673
but we don't know
why they continue
1738
01:17:14,847 --> 01:17:17,110
to stick around year after year.
1739
01:17:17,284 --> 01:17:18,808
Mistletoe is one of those.
1740
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,028
If you're standing
under some mistletoe,
1741
01:17:22,202 --> 01:17:25,205
it's bad luck not to
give someone a kiss.
1742
01:17:25,379 --> 01:17:30,297
So find a loved one, find
some mistletoe and find luck."
1743
01:17:36,216 --> 01:17:38,566
Well, you heard it, folks.
1744
01:17:38,741 --> 01:17:42,309
Paul's the producer and you
have to do what he says.
1745
01:17:44,702 --> 01:17:46,009
Only two more days.
1746
01:17:49,925 --> 01:17:50,577
Great job, everyone.
1747
01:17:50,753 --> 01:17:51,753
Keep it up.
1748
01:17:54,931 --> 01:17:56,715
Okay, and we're out.
1749
01:17:59,282 --> 01:18:00,282
Good work.
1750
01:18:01,415 --> 01:18:03,548
And I really think this has been
1751
01:18:03,722 --> 01:18:05,332
a wonderful idea
for the podcast.
1752
01:18:06,898 --> 01:18:08,031
Yeah, it's been great.
1753
01:18:12,252 --> 01:18:13,252
Hey, Laura?
1754
01:18:16,169 --> 01:18:18,563
There's something
that I've been wanting
1755
01:18:18,737 --> 01:18:20,957
to talk to you about.
1756
01:18:21,130 --> 01:18:24,568
I was just wondering if you
had some time maybe later we-
1757
01:18:24,743 --> 01:18:26,397
- Hold on, I've gotta get this.
1758
01:18:26,571 --> 01:18:27,571
Hey.
1759
01:18:29,269 --> 01:18:30,706
Hold on just a minute.
1760
01:18:31,924 --> 01:18:33,969
Hey, this is gonna
take a minute.
1761
01:18:34,144 --> 01:18:36,712
Did you have a question
for me or anything?
1762
01:18:37,930 --> 01:18:40,716
Oh, no, no, I'm fine.
1763
01:18:43,370 --> 01:18:44,370
Thanks.
1764
01:18:45,677 --> 01:18:47,244
I didn't see Michale,
1765
01:18:47,418 --> 01:18:48,898
So when you go see her tonight,
1766
01:18:49,072 --> 01:18:50,638
make sure to bring
some mistletoe.
1767
01:18:50,813 --> 01:18:52,118
See you tomorrow.
1768
01:19:09,092 --> 01:19:13,313
I really thought we'd been
connecting these last few days.
1769
01:19:13,487 --> 01:19:15,620
Maybe it's not
what it looked like.
1770
01:19:17,883 --> 01:19:19,624
No, I think it was clear.
1771
01:19:20,668 --> 01:19:23,976
And honestly, it's my fault.
1772
01:19:26,196 --> 01:19:27,632
I missed my chance.
1773
01:19:33,507 --> 01:19:34,900
And I'm really happy for him.
1774
01:19:38,686 --> 01:19:40,166
They're perfect for each other.
1775
01:19:43,866 --> 01:19:44,910
I'm sorry.
1776
01:19:48,653 --> 01:19:49,785
Me too.
1777
01:19:49,959 --> 01:19:52,178
Thanks, I'm gonna be fine.
1778
01:19:52,352 --> 01:19:54,311
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
1779
01:19:54,485 --> 01:19:55,573
Bye.
1780
01:20:01,318 --> 01:20:06,192
Well, our Christmas Challenge
worked exactly as we wanted.
1781
01:20:07,019 --> 01:20:08,847
Well, that's great.
1782
01:20:09,021 --> 01:20:11,303
Unfortunately, it worked for
Paul and Michale, not Laura.
1783
01:20:11,327 --> 01:20:13,634
No.
1784
01:20:13,809 --> 01:20:14,809
Oh.
1785
01:20:15,723 --> 01:20:17,377
Well, there's still time.
1786
01:20:17,550 --> 01:20:21,338
According to Laura, it's
gonna take a Christmas miracle.
1787
01:20:39,269 --> 01:20:41,880
Is there enough
ice cream in there for two?
1788
01:20:42,054 --> 01:20:43,142
Hi.
1789
01:20:43,316 --> 01:20:44,317
Hi.
1790
01:20:44,491 --> 01:20:47,320
How did, why are you up here?
1791
01:20:47,494 --> 01:20:49,018
I wanted to tell you something.
1792
01:20:50,454 --> 01:20:52,760
How did you know I'd be up here?
1793
01:20:52,934 --> 01:20:55,719
Well, I think I know you
better than just about anyone.
1794
01:20:56,895 --> 01:20:58,505
Well, yeah.
1795
01:20:58,679 --> 01:21:01,682
Look, I've got something
to say and I just,
1796
01:21:01,857 --> 01:21:04,207
I can't wait any
longer to say it, okay?
1797
01:21:04,380 --> 01:21:05,382
Where's Michale?
1798
01:21:07,036 --> 01:21:08,559
Michale went home,
1799
01:21:08,733 --> 01:21:10,430
but I'm not here to
talk about Michale.
1800
01:21:10,603 --> 01:21:12,911
Wait, Michale went home?
1801
01:21:13,085 --> 01:21:14,217
What happened with you two?
1802
01:21:14,391 --> 01:21:15,609
- I thought-
- I love you.
1803
01:21:16,784 --> 01:21:17,785
Okay?
1804
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:19,744
Look, after the Christmas party,
1805
01:21:19,918 --> 01:21:21,615
Michale offered me a job working
1806
01:21:21,789 --> 01:21:23,835
as an executive
producer at the network.
1807
01:21:25,924 --> 01:21:27,099
That's so exciting.
1808
01:21:28,318 --> 01:21:29,406
But I told her no.
1809
01:21:30,929 --> 01:21:32,365
Why?
1810
01:21:32,539 --> 01:21:34,063
Because I'd have to move away.
1811
01:21:35,978 --> 01:21:39,111
I thought about it, and the
more I thought about it,
1812
01:21:39,285 --> 01:21:41,070
the more it didn't feel right
1813
01:21:41,244 --> 01:21:43,444
and I realized that it didn't
feel right because of you.
1814
01:21:45,813 --> 01:21:46,813
Me?
1815
01:21:47,859 --> 01:21:48,859
Yeah.
1816
01:21:51,123 --> 01:21:53,473
I have felt this way about
you for the longest time
1817
01:21:53,647 --> 01:21:55,432
and I just didn't
know how to say it.
1818
01:21:56,999 --> 01:21:58,870
And I didn't want to
ruin what we have,
1819
01:22:00,741 --> 01:22:02,960
but I think you're the most
amazing person in the world
1820
01:22:03,135 --> 01:22:05,094
and working with you has been
1821
01:22:05,268 --> 01:22:07,270
the best experience
of my entire life.
1822
01:22:08,793 --> 01:22:10,553
Everyday, I look forward
to coming into the office
1823
01:22:10,577 --> 01:22:12,492
because I love my job.
1824
01:22:14,016 --> 01:22:15,843
That's because I love you.
1825
01:22:16,018 --> 01:22:18,672
I mean, I have my own office
and I don't even use it
1826
01:22:18,846 --> 01:22:20,413
because I wanna be close to you.
1827
01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:25,200
I...
1828
01:22:33,861 --> 01:22:35,994
We don't want bad luck, do we?
1829
01:22:36,168 --> 01:22:37,168
No.
1830
01:22:37,996 --> 01:22:38,996
No, we don't.
1831
01:23:04,849 --> 01:23:07,199
It's been a crazy
adventure here podcasting
1832
01:23:07,373 --> 01:23:09,288
this Christmas Challenge.
1833
01:23:09,462 --> 01:23:12,683
I am so thankful to
the mystery listener
1834
01:23:12,857 --> 01:23:14,684
who sent this to us.
1835
01:23:14,859 --> 01:23:17,949
You have changed our lives
more than you will ever know.
1836
01:23:19,733 --> 01:23:21,431
For our 24th day activity,
1837
01:23:21,605 --> 01:23:24,216
we have started a new
Christmas Eve tradition
1838
01:23:24,389 --> 01:23:26,653
of spending the
holiday together.
1839
01:23:27,567 --> 01:23:28,718
Something that I look forward
1840
01:23:28,742 --> 01:23:30,701
to doing for many years to come.
1841
01:23:39,579 --> 01:23:41,320
And now we have
come to the last day
1842
01:23:41,494 --> 01:23:42,887
of the Christmas Challenge,
1843
01:23:43,061 --> 01:23:46,151
which means it is Christmas Day.
1844
01:23:46,325 --> 01:23:47,934
Merry Christmas to you all,
1845
01:23:48,110 --> 01:23:51,764
and thank you for being
a part of this with us.
1846
01:23:51,939 --> 01:23:56,205
Remember, family can
mean so many things.
1847
01:23:56,379 --> 01:23:58,946
So, for your Christmas
dinner with family,
1848
01:23:59,121 --> 01:24:01,949
make sure that you're spending
it with the ones you love.
1849
01:24:02,124 --> 01:24:04,735
So, here we go.
1850
01:24:04,909 --> 01:24:06,302
I still feel strongly
1851
01:24:06,476 --> 01:24:08,304
that you can do anything
you put your mind to.
1852
01:24:08,478 --> 01:24:11,523
It's okay to be independent,
1853
01:24:11,698 --> 01:24:14,657
but I've learned that it's
okay to have help sometimes.
1854
01:24:14,832 --> 01:24:18,401
In fact, some things
are better shared.
1855
01:24:20,707 --> 01:24:22,231
And starting in the new year,
1856
01:24:22,405 --> 01:24:24,125
you are all going to
be sharing this podcast
1857
01:24:24,233 --> 01:24:25,843
with a lot more people
1858
01:24:26,017 --> 01:24:28,802
because we will be joining
the Podworks network,
1859
01:24:28,976 --> 01:24:31,414
which is very exciting
because we will be reaching
1860
01:24:31,588 --> 01:24:33,459
a much bigger audience.
1861
01:24:33,633 --> 01:24:36,809
So this Christmas, be
sure to raise a glass
1862
01:24:36,984 --> 01:24:38,116
to the ones you love.
1863
01:24:39,857 --> 01:24:42,773
I guess all there
is left to say is...
1864
01:24:42,947 --> 01:24:44,469
Merry Christmas!
