Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Cat and Moose podcast. I'm Kat and I'm Moose.

Speaker 2:

This is a true life podcast where we explore the quirks of being human.

Speaker 3:

Hey, hi, hey guys.

Speaker 2:

Oh, we're announcing, okay, any other? Oh, sarah didn't get to tell anyone about her boo-boos while she was on tour.

Speaker 1:

No, oh no, sarah, you don't have a boo-boo person out there, don't worry, I've caught moose up on all of the boo-boos and scratches and bruises.

Speaker 2:

I think how many there was, at least like 12.

Speaker 3:

There were several, mostly bruises and a few scratches.

Speaker 1:

Now, is there an abusive situation going on, or like you got to? Tell our listeners what to get beaten up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, tell us about your new job, sarah. You don't have to share the artist, but tell us what you're doing.

Speaker 3:

I am out on tour with an artist Started in. Well, last weekend was my first run of shows and it'll go through mid-June and my job is the immersive director and so I am in charge of setting up multiple photo op kind of set pieces out in the concourse and on the main entry plazas for all of the fans to experience as they enter into the arenas. The idea is for them to enter into the experience of the tour. That's really cool, that's smart, it's really fun. It's a lot of work, it's a lot of manual labor. I have help, but I'm still doing working my ass off. Good for you, that's good, it's fun.

Speaker 3:

I love having a job, but just something. I love having something to pour my effort and energy and passion into. Yeah, it fits you very well, it really does, and I've had gigs here and there and I'm doing things. I've always got something going on, but this is the first full-time thing I've had in a while and it feels good to have something to just pour all of my energy into this one thing instead of having to just gig and split up my attention elsewhere. So it's good.

Speaker 1:

I'm excited. Good, that's awesome. So how are these set pieces hurting you? How are you getting hurt?

Speaker 3:

Well, you know it's funny, I almost never remember how I'm getting hurt. I have this it's like a four and a half inch scratch down my leg. I don't know how I got that scratch, but I got it on the first day and someone else pointed it out to me.

Speaker 2:

I like to think of Sarah as let me start over I like to think about Sarah as a I was about to say the freaking same damn thing perpetually as a seven-year-old boy that has fallen out of a tree. But that's just part of the excitement of climbing and so like there might be a broken bone here and there.

Speaker 3:

No, I've never broken a bone Never. I'm very safe. I do get bumps and scratchies. Cat's missing a few of my fingers.

Speaker 2:

Cat's missing a finger. Well, cat, how'd you get rid of those two fingers? Well no, I was just I was just.

Speaker 1:

You tricked us yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm a magician, I mean that in itself is worth being a patron Gosh.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, look at this, Is this a new? Like a double flip-off. Are you in a gang? What are you doing?

Speaker 1:

I'm just trying to show you my three broken bones. Wait currently.

Speaker 2:

No, they've been broken. Oh, okay, okay, great, yeah, all of them were on your left hand.

Speaker 3:

The fingers that are extended are the broken ones. Yeah, oh, I see.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that ring finger. It looks like it got caught in a conveyor belt or something.

Speaker 1:

It did get caught in my sister's dog's collar.

Speaker 3:

Oh, my God, my fingers oh my God, it broke my finger.

Speaker 1:

And do you remember how this one broke Moose? No, but I'm not getting blamed for it. I know you're not, but you were there when it happened. Well, remind me, this is when I caught a football before we went and jumped out of a plane together.

Speaker 2:

Did that really break? I do remember that it did.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, so the football.

Speaker 2:

I gotta be honest. You should just say it was from skydiving. That's way cooler than catching a football before we went skydiving yeah that's true. Actually, my parachute went out and this is all I broke was my finger.

Speaker 1:

But then that would be not telling the truth.

Speaker 2:

And I like to tell the truth, I'm such a little goody-two shoes. We are a nonfiction podcast, people we tell the truth. And this one, sarah and Moose, I mean this is a show about boo-boos, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's Sarah and Moose. You guys were here when I broke this one.

Speaker 2:

Remind us, I am on trauma overload. I can't take on anyone else Me too.

Speaker 1:

It's when I threw myself and one of our colleagues off of a four-wheeler. It almost killed me.

Speaker 3:

You guys, this four-wheeler. I have tried to put that out of my memory.

Speaker 2:

If you've been listening for a while you know the story, but this four-wheeler accident nearly killed Kat. It rolled over on her. Actually it wasn't very hurt, but it was scary.

Speaker 1:

It almost landed on top of me at full force 9.8 meters per second squared rolling down a hill. Rolling down a hill. It was the angel of the Lord who protected me.

Speaker 2:

The angel of the Lord, it wasn't the Lord. It was their angels.

Speaker 1:

Well, some people would argue that they're one and the same and I don't need to get into that theological debate. Oh, why, not Okay, we can Okay. Back to the forerunner. Is God the same as God's angels?

Speaker 2:

I want to stay on that. The best part about that event is that we had just gotten there.

Speaker 3:

We hadn't started the event that was the pre-like.

Speaker 2:

let's go look at the property we're going to talk about God and the universe and how they are for us.

Speaker 1:

I think we were there a full 22 minutes and we got the fuck out, yeah, and the only thing that had to happen is I almost had to die.

Speaker 2:

I was behind you and I just remember, once I got up to where you were, you were under it and I thought this is not okay.

Speaker 1:

Not good, I've never ran that fast Well and I've never run very fast, but I've never, I've never cleaved to my best friend. Cleaved Like that day.

Speaker 4:

Like I don't know the right word.

Speaker 2:

Can you look up cleave, I can see what cleave is.

Speaker 1:

I know husband cleaves to their wife and I felt like. I felt like what I really needed in that moment.

Speaker 2:

Are you husband and?

Speaker 3:

I'm the wife. No, no, no, this means to glue, to adhere, to join, to stick.

Speaker 2:

I picture cleaving with somebody Putting their legs around me.

Speaker 3:

What's funny is isn't that also like? Doesn't it kind of also mean the opposite? Like a cleaver is like a meat. Cleaver separates things Well yeah, skin muscle.

Speaker 1:

I don't know what a meat cleaver is. Oh, but can we go back to like when, when I was very scared and I needed you?

Speaker 2:

And I was there, I allowed the cleaving.

Speaker 1:

And I know, and it just like I was, so thankful, like I was so thankful. And then like having Sarah there is like this rock, steady, like guys go to the hospital.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, check out your non broken bones. You don't have to worry about it. Yeah, yeah, so.

Speaker 1:

I was just really grateful to if I had that near death experience. I'm glad that I had it with you guys is what I'm trying to say.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just, it was great. I mean soon after everything fell apart. Covid happened.

Speaker 3:

Well, not just that, our company fell, it was the beginning of the end, probably because we wrecked.

Speaker 1:

We wrecked our clients. Four wheeler.

Speaker 2:

Or they wrecked us one or the other.

Speaker 1:

Anyway, maybe they were trying to kill us.

Speaker 2:

Anyway, you guys, this is gonna be a great episode because I just came from a therapy appointment, so I haven't quite processed my trauma. I'm still processing it. But can I dive in and tell you, because both of you, can somebody give a recap of the crying doll and how she came into our existence, the blood coming from her eyes? I would like to try, may I try, please.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so, moose, I have heard you talk about viewing yourself kind of as a house with many rooms in it, and the house has people living in certain rooms, and in one of these rooms there is a seven year old girl that is sitting in the middle of the room crying and she's like all like balled up, like just sitting there like holding her knees, and for some reason I have laid it upon to you, upon that her, that she's crying blood and she yeah, that's what I remember.

Speaker 2:

Well, I don't think you're wrong at this point. I used to feel very like you had appanced me, like you had cleaved to my inner child that was grieving. But so here's what happened today. So I knew today was gonna be an important therapy session, just because of what's going on in my life emotionally and well in every way, if I'm being honest. So today felt like okay, perfect timing. Sometimes therapy appointments feel like what the hell am I gonna talk about? And sometimes it's like, ooh, that's perfect.

Speaker 2:

And I walked into this one and gave a little bit of context to what's going on in my life and then we immediately go into parts work which I'm a huge fan of and my therapist. We identify very quickly four parts that each have something to say, and three of those parts were critical parts and like one of them would say like da, da, da. And then I would say, oh, that same one is saying this and she's like oh, so there's another person in the room and I'm like gosh, I literally started laughing at one point. I was like they're multiplying, I'm like.

Speaker 2:

But what is interesting is I was fully in like trans, like mode when I was processing, kind of some of these feelings and what originally started as this in my mind I was picturing this baby laying on the ground, throwing a fit, like just screaming, like the baby shouldn't be able to talk, but it's saying I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die. And it was just like throwing a fit and at first I'm like whoa, all these years of therapy if you know anything about internal family systems like kind of the goal is to talk to the grandpuba, which is the inner child right Like the exiled child that we've left behind. And so today was very tender. All this was kind of coming up and I thought there she is, she's a little baby. She was underneath a pew. I have no idea the religious trauma that might have.

Speaker 1:

I was just gonna say hello. Religious trauma.

Speaker 2:

Somebody left her under a pew and she's talking at like age zero. That in itself is traumatizing, but anyway. So all this is happening and my therapist I am a sitter name because she's so fantastic she all of a sudden real, for some reason, recognizes that I actually need to tell this baby to chill for a minute in a little bit different ways and said what about this one over here? And I had said something she had written down that she thought that one had said All this to say.

Speaker 2:

Halfway through I realized that this baby is battery powered and is just like a red herring that this other part over here threw out to get my attention. And this isn't even a part like it was weird. I've never experienced anything like that. But the whole point is she said I want you at this point to look at how everyone is facing this baby and paying attention to it. And she said, even though they're annoyed by it, because that's what their feeling was. She was like they're paying attention to it. How does that feel? And that was kind of the system working it out. So I would pay attention to this feeling is what it was. But I did not have the heart to tell my therapist that the baby was battery powered.

Speaker 1:

That's sorry, I guess that's not funny. It was funny. I thought it was very funny. It is funny Liz.

Speaker 2:

In my mind, if they really want me to go into my inner self. The six year old who was having trouble with the baby who was whining really needed the work, which is what we did the work around, thank goodness. But I think she put that battery powered screaming baby through under a pew so I would pay attention then when I got internal I know this all sounds crazy 12 times a session I go. I don't have any of this, shit's true, and my therapist just starts laughing.

Speaker 2:

I mean, yeah, your therapist is saying, now that you're talking to this part, how are you? What is it saying? I mean, you're trusting that what's coming up is what it's saying, but sure hell no.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and it's like the practitioner is kind of, in essence, a guide right, like just kind of helping you figure your shit out, and it's not terribly different than the body work modality that I like to practice. Yeah, okay. So can I get a little clarity around the battery powered baby? Yes, please, okay. So who was it that generated the battery powered baby?

Speaker 2:

that actually wasn't a real baby, yep that would be the six year old version of me, or a part that is six years old, and she is the one that criticizes. Say that I'm like I'm not doing good, whatever that means I'm not doing well, she's the one that goes tough it up. Yeah, pull up your bootstraps. Yep, you're not normal. Normal people can handle this, you know, and she's six. But what she really needs is to be held, yeah, and like go, is it? You know? Is it tough being so tough when you're six years old? Like that's shit she needs.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, you don't have to be in charge of this. You're six, right, you're six.

Speaker 2:

Be a six year old, you can actually just go play.

Speaker 1:

Yeah yeah, wow, and so was her creating the battery powered baby. Was that fun?

Speaker 2:

Well, I think she was throwing a fit and she was just trying to get some attention and she threw it under there, but ultimately she got attention, which is what's going on. How are you feeling All of that? So, yeah, it was more like a kid growing a fit and you know, that's all.

Speaker 1:

Well, to me, I think of the that, that book that we've talked about before the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I think, is what it's called and one of the characters had dueling brains, oh yeah, and he was so smart that he taught his other brain to not be able to figure out what this brain had already figured out.

Speaker 1:

So it's like he was, like it, intentionally working against himself. Yeah, and so to me, like when it's like your six year old throws the baby that's a battery powered baby under a pew, it's like is that a distraction? Is that a call for attention? And then what is the not wanting to tell your therapist that it's battery powered?

Speaker 2:

Well, I think she knew even if that was an actual part of me, I think she knew somehow she's frigging brilliant that that wasn't where the attention needed to go. It was very interesting, so I didn't. I didn't feel so bad, except in my I tell her everything and I just was like no, not doing that today, not telling her that that is a motorized doll. That's getting weird.

Speaker 1:

I do parts work and I've learned that some of my parts are not even human, they're electronic. Like that makes me feel like you might be living in a society that is grappling with the ethics and morality around artificial intelligence, maybe.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I love artificial intelligence. Personally, I do think that we have a problem when it comes to artistry. We have to protect, yeah, and you know, deep fake stuff is awful. We need to make sure that's regulated, but I do think it's very interesting that we can take something. And the thing I worry about with AI, though, is that things will start looking more standardized, because if people start leaning on AI more and more and more, you could see how you know, say that you're like oh, write me a business plan for this idea. Well, if you don't take that and make it your own, it could become sort of a self-fulfilling prophecy that things start looking more whitewashed and standardized. Does that make sense?

Speaker 1:

Well, it does To me. It's like to me. It's like if you say, write me a business plan and it writes you a business plan, and then you quote, unquote, make it your own, you're starting at a different place than having nothing. Yeah. So, why wouldn't everything start to look, smell, taste, feel the same and it's like? Does that mean that the earth becomes flat?

Speaker 2:

Yes, yes. Also, there are people like me who need a template to spark an idea. I'm kind of that person, and so that's how I use AI is I'm like, before I'm going to write a paper for school, I will say what are your 12 key points around this topic, and I would just get some ideas to spark my paper, and then I separate that and I go and do my paper. But again, I'm depending on that instead of using my own imagination. I could get it. I could get. It's not any different than really Googling, though. It just puts it together a little bit for you, although, whatever, we're all robots. That's what I'm getting at.

Speaker 1:

Is that the grand reveal of today's?

Speaker 2:

episode it is we are robots.

Speaker 1:

So you're motorized battery, not motorized, you're battery operated. Baby is actually AI yeah.

Speaker 2:

I mean it is AI. Yeah, no, that's creepy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's what I'm getting at. It is very creepy. No, so I don't know if AI. Well, I do know that AI participates in this, so I learned today that there are several retailers that are going to start doing away with self-checkout.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I've read that too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so last year the retail industry the physical retail industry lost over $112 billion due to theft from people utilizing self-checkout and not like being honest in what's the word. I'm looking for Integrity Integrity in checking out everything that's how the morals and yeah.

Speaker 2:

How do you get past that thing, though? Because those people police that I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's. The thing that they're saying is that in certain targets, especially in California, that they have AI that is starting to scan and watch people do that process so that they don't steal things. So that's talking about AI kind of made me think about that. I thought it was neat.

Speaker 2:

That's really cool.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I can see that being an issue. I can see how it's helpful, where they can maybe save dollars on not having employees. Think of when you go a lot of McDonald's and fast food restaurants. There's one person at a cash register, everyone else. You got to do it on screens and order your own food, and so I think they're doing away with Humans. Well, maybe they were doing away with humans and now realizing humans are going to hack the system always. We always are.

Speaker 3:

So, even if you're doing away with payroll, you're going to lose money because the patrons are, I mean, I don't know, they're not all upstanding. I guess maybe that's the best way to put it.

Speaker 1:

I think that's the moral of this story is that People are just like People are bad.

Speaker 2:

People are just like. Hey guys, this is an uplifting podcast. Welcome.

Speaker 1:

You know, a retailer that I really don't like visiting is CVS Pharmacy. Do you guys use CVS? No, I've been in there before you know.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Buying a snack or two, but no.

Speaker 1:

I think that we've talked about it early, early on in the podcast, because I am really grossed out by CVS's because of their gray carpet. I think the carpet is just there's something really disgusting about it and there's carpet in it. Yeah, there's carpet. Exactly, there's an EV carpet in a drugstore.

Speaker 3:

It's not like linoleum. No, it's weird.

Speaker 1:

It's like, at least in the ones that I've been in and I learned today. I was driving down the road the other day and I passed the CVS and I don't use CVS because I don't like their carpet. So this is not a shout out to our sponsor, cvs.

Speaker 4:

Pharmacy.

Speaker 1:

CVS is the largest healthcare organization in the world Really. First of all, and can either one of you tell me what CVS stands for? Yes, Customer.

Speaker 3:

Very Shocked.

Speaker 1:

That's what it stood for in 2014, when they decided nationwide that they were going to stop carrying tobacco products. You guys remember that. I do remember that Can't get your siggies at the health store Makes sense. So what is it? It's consumer value stores. What To me? I just felt completely bamboozled as I was driving by the CVS, that I see CVS's on the corner everywhere and I just am okay with the fact that I don't even know what those letters stand for.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of things like that. What's DHL stand for Delivery?

Speaker 3:

Hall Loads Yep.

Speaker 1:

It's gotta be it. What does?

Speaker 2:

UPS stand for United Parcel Services.

Speaker 1:

Then what is USPS? United States Postal?

Speaker 2:

Service.

Speaker 1:

What about FedEx?

Speaker 3:

Federal Express. Guys, we're in acronym podcast. We are so smart, can I show?

Speaker 2:

you guys a video. Yeah, yeah, okay, here we go, here we go.

Speaker 4:

The opposite of depression is expression, because what comes out of your body will never make you ill. What stays in there does. So, if you have a feeling, all you have to do is invite the feeling, not to judge the feeling there is no right or wrong feeling, there is only your feeling and then invite the feeling, feel that feeling, decide how long you're gonna hold on to that feeling and then you release it. You release it to the ocean, to the universe that is bigger than you. So I hope that you will practice expression, because if you're not, you are going to lead to depression and hopefully that you're not going to really end up as a depressed person and being cheated from the celebration of life. So express your feelings, get it out. What comes out, remember, will never make you ill. What stays in there does.

Speaker 1:

This woman is my spirit animal.

Speaker 3:

Holy slate mocs.

Speaker 2:

Her name is Dr Edith Eager or Egger, I'm not completely sure how to say it, but I saw that and I shared it with Sarah and I was like whoa expression. And then so three things hit me. Just the idea of expression, what does that look like? I'm thinking about that. Secondly, what stays in makes you ill, what goes out doesn't. And then, thirdly, that phrase, celebration of life, like how do we celebrate life while we're here? What did you guys feel from it?

Speaker 1:

I am finding it to be true in my life over and over and over that the movement of energy is a good thing. It's the whole Yin-Yang thing of like nothing changes until something changes, you know. So like if there's something going on inside of me like an emotional feeling, and I'm keeping that to myself and in my own echo chamber with it in my head, then if that is something that festers, or if that's something that gives me anxiety, or if it scares me or whatever it is, and I don't express that like I feel like in my own experience, I agree with her.

Speaker 1:

What stays in really makes me ill, and it's like when I release it, at least there is movement of energy. I don't think that it's as simple as just going. Well, I feel sad today and so I'm just gonna go. Woo, I feel sad and then my feelings are gonna be gone. Like I think that's a little too oversimplified, but I also think that it's like a continuous expression of our feelings, I think is really, really important.

Speaker 1:

I really really like what she said. I think the thing that it makes me worry about is that I think some people might take that so literally and express their feelings in a way that that might be disrespectful or even harmful to others and that kind of Right.

Speaker 2:

But I think, even beyond feelings, if you take the depression compared with expression, as someone who deals with depression, I think it just makes me go. Okay, how do I what is the opposite of what I'm doing look like? And for me that means finding meaning outside of my own bubble. It also means how can I use my voice, like you said, in a positive way, because so many of us believe these ideas that we are no longer relevant and for whatever reason.

Speaker 2:

We have all the reasons in our head, we know what those are, but the reality is is like we're on this planet to use our voice to express what we're talking about, to express what's going on inside of us, because we are interconnected and when you express your voice, it changes me because we're connected, you know. And so I think that is where we get lost sometimes is in the depression of I don't matter, my voice doesn't matter, and it's like if you can find what, as you would say, kat has gotten your goozle, that's what you're to bring into the world. It's the thrill, whatever that is. I had a friend this week say to me I think you're missing thrill in your life and it really made me think and I was like, okay, what's gonna get my goozle next? Because I need a thrill.

Speaker 1:

And the thing that comes up for me specifically in my as a client, like in my body work, work that I do, the thing that comes up for me more than anything is I need to have more fun. Yeah, I think we need to have more fun. I just need to have more fun.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, well, okay, so what are you gonna do about it? I did this with a friend of mine. I have a very good friend of mine who needs I won't say what this is, but needs to go to the doctor for something. It's not life-threatening, it's annoying, it's one of those things. And so I said I have been avoiding this very expensive dentist appointment and I'm gonna make the appointment and two within two weeks. I will make this appointment and I challenge them to do the same. So, kat, in the next two weeks, what is something you would like to do for fun? I know I spoke in some other language there. I was getting tongues.

Speaker 1:

Yes, I was like in the next two years. Oh my gosh, this is putting me really on the spot, Like what is the thing that I'm gonna do that for?

Speaker 2:

fun. Yeah, what's the fun you're gonna encounter in the next two weeks? This shouldn't be hard, well. Well, what sounds like fun to?

Speaker 1:

you Hanging out with you guys Doing what?

Speaker 2:

Oh, I already know.

Speaker 1:

I think it would be fun to play Cornhole.

Speaker 2:

Let's play some.

Speaker 3:

Cornhole Make me play some.

Speaker 1:

Cornhole.

Speaker 3:

Okay, all right, that sounds fun, let's do it Okay it's a date.

Speaker 2:

Great, what else? No, you only have to have one. Oh, just one, okay, great.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, what are you gonna? What's your phrase, sarah? What's my phrase? Yeah, if Moose is lacking thrill and I'm lacking fun, what are you missing or lacking?

Speaker 3:

Oh, okay. So this reminds me yesterday Moose and I were talking about oh, this is good, it was actually started in. No, you tell it.

Speaker 2:

No, you tell it Okay.

Speaker 3:

It started in reference to our dogs, because we are trying to determine what both of our dogs have like the equivalent of like a master's degree in, and they might one might be like being very hypervigilant and aware in the security guard of the house, or whatever.

Speaker 2:

I was giving out master's degrees to everyone, and so then it was like well, what would ours be?

Speaker 3:

So I can't remember what I decided mine was, but I have a master's in. You have a master's in, oh, engineering, because I see and enjoy how things work not literally, I wish I did, but I don't but my whole viewpoint, an advantage point of the world is how does this work? The situation, the conversation, the physical thing, whatever. I like to know how things are fit and go together. And then I'm pursuing a certificate in.

Speaker 2:
