Kat and Moose Podcast
Self-Soothing and Say Something
Ever wondered how a simple act of vulnerability could transform your understanding of yourself? Join us this week on the Kat and Moose podcast as we celebrate the astounding success of Producer Sara's captivating new podcast "SEQUESTERED," where she shares insightful tales from her time as Juror # 11 on a murder trial in Chattanooga, TN. Thanks to Moose's genius marketing skills, honed from years in the music industry, Sara's podcast has attracted an impressive audience and numerous interviews. Amidst all the hoopla, we ponder the idea of turning this episode into a prayer request and praise report session, using humor to explore personal truths and the challenge of revealing them to a trusted confidant.
This episode also takes us on a nostalgic journey back to the 1980s, a time of quirky parenting practices and bizarre events like the cyanide-laced Tylenol scare. We reminisce about childhood antics that persist despite our parents' best deterrents, and how these shaped the adults we've become. There’s laughter in recalling the carefree ways of the past, like teething remedies involving whiskey, and a reflection on how these experiences have guided us to seek self-awareness over external validation.
Prepare for laughter as we recount travel misadventures, like leaving valuables behind during flights or the dreaded airport security chaos. With the looming task of obtaining a Real ID, we share the amusing trials at the DMV and the modern challenges every traveler faces. Whether it’s the tangled web of identification or the nostalgic memory of browsing cassette tapes, our tales promise to resonate with anyone who’s ever felt the stress of travel or the pull of the past.

Welcome to the Cat and Moose podcast. I'm Cat and I'm Moose.
Speaker 2:This is a true life podcast where we explore the quirks of being human. Hi.
Speaker 3:Cat, Hi Sarah, Hi everyone. I didn't actually say that to you, even though we've been hanging out for the last five minutes.
Speaker 1:Hi, sarah. Well, I didn't give you much of a choice either. Why, what do you mean? Well, because I immediately was when you were like I might have to pop out. I was like I got because you have your own podcast. Well, I do, but that's not why. Yeah, I'm really proud of you, sarah. Like, congratulations on um sequestered. I know we talked about this last week too, but I just am really proud of you and I think the marketing that you guys have done um for your podcast about your experience as a juror number 11, um.
Speaker 1:I've really been impressed with you guys, thank you. Thanks, kat, yeah, welcome.
Speaker 3:Moose is killing it in the marketing world and all of the social media things that I absolutely hate doing, but I'm doing my best. She actually was as amazing. I just have to brag on her for a minute because she's taken all of these skills that she's used in her music industry job over the last 20 plus years and she's just supplying them to this podcast and going let's just write a press release and send it out. And I'm like what, how do you just write that and where do you send it out to? Where do you just put a press release to? And she found like 80 emails and it was more than that. But yeah, but like just customized each press release for each County she was sending it to, or at each you know, whether it was to the news channels or podcast people, or I've had three interviews, all this attention and excitement around it and it just it's fun.
Speaker 3:It's cool to see, um, just something that we just were like we have to do something about, like act on this now and just see it turn into something you know, or just already getting a buzz. I guess we don't know if it's turned into anything yet, but it's fun to feel the buzz around it. That's awesome.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm super, super impressed, and I was out on the road this past week with one of our clients and a particular band member of this client came up to me and she was like so have you watched the interview that Sarah did? And I was like no, I haven't watched it yet because I've been working all day and she was like, oh my God, it's so good, it's so professional. I'm like you are an international sensation.
Speaker 3:Yes, dignitary Sarah.
Speaker 2:What I think is cool is that, uh, sarah has just like stepped up to the plate, like if, if the roles were reversed and I was the one, I would not want to do all of these interviews and things like that, and she's just like sure, I'm just sharing my experience.
Speaker 3:It's not that it's more, it's not as oh sure. Um, I've definitely had some hesitation cause I don't like being seen in that light, you know, just on camera. But it's fine, it's good and it has been fine and fun and I feel really like excited to meet these people. And, anyway, that's not the podcast we're on today.
Speaker 1:Well, I was going to ask once we started talking about our podcast, I was going to ask, you know, it seems like just about every week we say something like we're a science podcast or we're a psychology podcast or we're a whatever, and I was wondering this week if I could have a moment of our podcast that could be a prayer request podcast and a praise report podcast.
Speaker 2:Okay, I love that. Oh, we've got plenty of listeners with religious trauma that would really appreciate those two phrases. So, yeah, bring it on. Yeah, good, awesome, what is your prayer? Tell me what we need to pray about for. Is this an unspoken prayer request or a spoken one?
Speaker 1:Yeah Well.
Speaker 2:I have two.
Speaker 1:I have two the unspoken prayer request is what do I do with the question that you asked last week about? What are you afraid to tell the truth about? Yes, I haven't been able to find anybody to tell my answer to Well.
Speaker 2:can you tell us?
Speaker 1:Are you looking?
Speaker 2:No Like. Are you looking for?
Speaker 1:people I am making a prayer request. Who can I possibly tell my innermost and most authentic, most heinous truth to?
Speaker 2:I mean, you've got us two plus at least a thousand other people listening, I mean the difference between you and I is I would never put out that plea because I don't want people to know.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2:Same, but you aren't willing to share that publicly. Is what I'm gathering? No, absolutely not like.
Speaker 1:Absolutely not and in neither, I would imagine, are either of you right?
Speaker 3:no, I doubt it. Are we allowed to ask any leading questions?
Speaker 1:oh sure, yeah of course, just kidding, I wouldn't want that and now I have leading questions.
Speaker 2:uh, can I'm just gonna ask one. The thing you don't want to tell the truth about it is the reason why you need somebody to tell it to for the witnessing of it. Is that where that feels like to you, like just?
Speaker 1:to have them witness it with you. Yeah, I need, I need, I need for it. I think that that would the best word I can come up with is disarm. Oh yeah, the truth, I like that. Okay, you know, it's like if I can just say it out loud and just be witnessed and be heard, then it'll probably like totally dissipate.
Speaker 2:Yes, like it probably won't be that that big of a deal. It's like the power of it goes away. Yes, that big of a deal.
Speaker 1:It's like the power of it goes away. Yes, yes.
Speaker 2:Well, what if we say it and then just beep it out? No, I don't trust you on this. We can't have record of it. Is what you're saying.
Speaker 1:No, I'm not saying we can't have record of it. I'm saying I don't trust you with record of it.
Speaker 2:Is it illegal? Yeah, is it illegal. Is it something? We know about you. Yeah, I doubt it oh.
Speaker 1:I don't know. Oh okay, uh okay. Enough leading questions onto my praise report. Okay.
Speaker 2:Praise report.
Speaker 1:Well, that was my first prayer request. My second prayer request, um, is that, um, I and my second prayer request is that and it sounds very similar and it's not regarding the same thing I am dealing with a handful of situations in my life, like work, personal life, school job, like my whole being, where I really need a lot of discernment. And so we had I gave a big speech a few podcasts ago about angels, unemployed angels and them just sitting around needing work, and I really just could use some discernment. Angels, okay, I just need some discernment because I have a lot of things that feel very like on the line. It's like, well, I could do this or I could do that, and I don't think it's one of those things where I don't think either way.
Speaker 1:In any of these decisions that I have to make, I don't think there's a right or wrong, I think there's a good and I think there's a best, you know. And so, like I really am needing discernment, like, do I just go with good or do I go with best? Like what? Like what do I do? And so those are my two prayer requests. So, for all of you religiously traumatized, if you want to jump back into how your body felt when you were religiously traumatized and offer me some prayers. That'd be really nice. And then, while you're in that state, maybe I can do something that would not traumatize you and offer you a praise report, in that I have had my second prolo therapy session with my right foot and today, as we are recording right now, I have zero pain in my foot.
Speaker 2:That's huge.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's huge.
Speaker 3:Holy smokes On your second treatment.
Speaker 1:That is incredible, yeah, and they said that I might not really notice significant impact until a fourth or fifth treatment, so the fact that I'm on treatment too. I had my first one in late November and then I had my second one last week. And as I was walking around my house today I was like why am I so weird? Like everything in my body is weird. Why is it weird. So I kind of did like a body scan and I was like I'm not in pain.
Speaker 2:I'm not in pain right now.
Speaker 1:That's incredible, kat, and I don't know if it's going to last a day. I don't know if it's going to last an hour, I don't know if it's going to last a lifetime, but this is my shout out for woo, woo, regenerative PRP prolotherapy. Woo, woo, regenerative PRP prolotherapy. I'm for it, I'm a fan.
Speaker 2:What a praise, praise the Lord.
Speaker 3:Raise your hands to the Lord. Is that the song? Hey, do you remember the last time?
Speaker 2:you didn't have pain in that foot. I thought you were going to ask something else.
Speaker 1:It was January of 2020. Wow, yeah.
Speaker 2:Five years years. I thought you're gonna say do you remember the last time you raised your hand in praise?
Speaker 1:and I would like you to answer that oh, it was just the two nights ago in washington dc. I could not help myself like good for you good for you a concert with one of our clients, and he was singing a song that I have heard him sing 8,000 times.
Speaker 3:And I literally was like yeah, they went up.
Speaker 1:Well, just this one went up.
Speaker 2:Like I was so excited.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just my right hand. Partial praise.
Speaker 2:I had our friend Teresa, who recently passed away. I would always tease her because whenever I would say that she was dangerous to stand next to in church, because she would put a hand up like this, but then she'd start circling with it and so her eyes would always be shut. So you would get the claw at some point during the worship service yeah.
Speaker 1:And did that somehow bless you? I'm sure it did in some way. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I yeah, yeah, yeah. I love washing over it, just washed right over me won't he do it okay.
Speaker 2:so I looked up the word discernment and, uh, cat, here is what it says it is Okay. And it says the ability to judge. Well, and then it says here's an example an astonishing lack of discernment is how it's described. And then, in Christian contexts which I think you might have brought along, it says perception in the absence of judgment, with the view to obtaining spiritual guidance and understanding.
Speaker 1:That.
Speaker 2:That is what I'm talking about Perception in the absence of judgment, with a view to obtaining spiritual guidance and understanding. And then an example in a sentence would be without providing for a time of healing and discernment, there will be no hope of living through this present moment without a shattering of our common life. That's bullshit.
Speaker 1:Who talks like that? Nobody even knows what that means. Like that's, yeah, that's like Thomas Merton stuff.
Speaker 2:Hey, I love Thomas Merton. No, me too.
Speaker 1:It takes about 10 years to understand what he's saying.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it love me some Thomas Burton stuff. No, me too. It takes about 10 years to understand what he's saying.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like reading Richard Rohr. You know, it's like wait, wait, wait, what? Like? I read a Mary Oliver poem on Facebook the other day and of course I thought of you because I know how much you love her work, Moose and I read it like six times and I was like I think maybe I'm understanding the first line, like after six times. Yeah, you gotta be in the.
Speaker 2:You gotta be in the right head space to sit there and take it in. Um, yeah, so wait. The reason I'm bringing this up is I think it's curious to me that you need outside confirmation on something.
Speaker 1:Well, it's curious to me too, If I could rid myself of whatever that is. I think, I would achieve enlightenment, like I would become enlightened right in that moment, when I did not need some sort of outside influence or opinion or something. And I really loved actually that definition that you read, the one that was in the Christian context, because it said without judgment, yeah, Perception and the absence of judgment. Yeah, it's like just perceiving what is not what I perceive is, but what actually? Is you know, it's very, it's actually very Taoist, I agree.
Speaker 2:I agree, it is very Thomas Merton.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So do you know what the right thing to do is?
Speaker 1:I don't. I mean, if I did, I would not be spending 20 minutes of all of our precious time talking about it Well, I'm enjoying these 20 minutes, me too. Yeah, I'm liking it, yeah, I'm digging it.
Speaker 2:I'm going to ask you again Do you kind of know what to do?
Speaker 1:Oh, do I kind of know. I kind of know. Okay, yeah, kind of know.
Speaker 2:But I don't know what would it take for you to know.
Speaker 1:An outside person.
Speaker 3:If an outside person is not an option.
Speaker 2:There is not an option.
Speaker 1:So the only other person besides an outside person would be God themselves.
Speaker 2:Okay, for God to tell me, okay so another, another prayer report is that the lord drops wisdom and knowledge into your soul and well, and being yes, yes, yes, yes, now you said, moose, that you had a topic that is going to completely like send us off into outer space, like space, yeah it sure is okay.
Speaker 2:I want to talk about something that popped in my mind a couple weeks ago, and maybe we need a whole spin-off of a podcast. That's just this, but what the hell happened in the 80s is what I would like to call it oh I mean where to begin I know I mean some of the best music ever agreed I totally agree.
Speaker 3:Yeah, were any of you in a car seat?
Speaker 2:no in the 80s, no nope no, none of us were in a car seat. That's what I'm saying. There was slinkies, no car seats. Like our parents had no idea where we were, my mom would always say, go play in traffic and I just had to be home when it got dark. Yeah, lots of crap happened in the eighties that nobody really talks about. So I would like to talk about something that happened to me in the eighties. Oh, okay, okay, I was born in 1978, by the way, so I wasn't you know, I was like, uh, so I wasn't you know.
Speaker 2:I was like what is that called A tween in the 80s? Yeah, sure, I was also a toddler, because it's a decade long.
Speaker 3:You were two years old.
Speaker 1:No but this happened later in the 80s. Here's my point, that is not a tween.
Speaker 3:Here's my point.
Speaker 2:Parents are divorced. All I want in my life is to be able to self-soothe by sucking my thumb. That's really all I want. These two humans I know it's their first time through the world as well, but they really. They caused some trauma in my life by breaking up and all that, whatever, and so all I want is a thumb. I'm not asking for much more, just to suck my thumb, yeah, and so I remember being at my dad's house during the summer, and he was. I don't know if my mom tasked him with it or what, but he was bound and determined that I was going to quit sucking my thumb, and he put hot sauce on my thumb.
Speaker 2:Like doesn't that just sound like something that would happen in the 80s.
Speaker 3:Yes, terrible Tabasco, that's what I got, you got it too, tabasco sauce.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and see, I don't think that. I don't really think I had a thumb sucking problem when I was teething and I blame my mother for how much I like to drink still.
Speaker 3:When I was teething, my mom would rub whiskey on my gum. I know that's what they did. Yeah, that was also just fine.
Speaker 1:Oh, it was totally fine, and chances are I was happier than any baby in this modern day. Like who has, like, you know what's it called? Like the lidocaine stuff that you put? You know it's like no, just use whiskey, like that's brilliant. Yeah, you know it's like no, just use whiskey, like that's brilliant, yeah.
Speaker 2:I know, I think the people who are raising kids in the eighties. They just had alcohol around and it was. It was like cat. It was just categorized as medicine at that point. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So they were like what do we use to feel better Whiskey? Let me put a little on my finger.
Speaker 1:Give it to the kid, yeah, yeah. So your dad put hot sauce on your thumb and did that rid you of your thumb sucking habit?
Speaker 2:I mean, I don't think so. I really don't, because I think I ended up sucking my thumb till I was like 12, which got me to 1990, for the record.
Speaker 3:But good job, thank you, but that's self-soothing at its finest.
Speaker 2:I was just thinking about shit that happened in the eighties and I was wondering do you guys remember um, when cyanide was found inside of Tylenol? Oh, it was a big deal, like it's a big yeah. Yeah, it was like uh, I think it was even considered like national terrorism or something, but like I remember the phrase um ended all with Tylenol.
Speaker 1:Wow, yeah, I vaguely remember that Like now that you said it I can go. Yes, I remember that happening, but like I couldn't tell you that would not be in my top 100 list of things that I remember from the 80s you know, but I feel, like I do remember that. And then, when did arsenic happen?
Speaker 2:when people were sending arsenic, it felt like in the 80s or 90s for sure, yeah, yeah, yeah they just started, or ricin, they would send like, yeah, like they would send letters to the Capitol or whatever, and yeah, that was a weird thing. And then the 80s also had a lot of 1-900 numbers, which are so bizarre now.
Speaker 1:We've definitely talked about that before we have. Yeah, we have definitely talked about that before and I think we determined that all of us have one 900 voices if we try.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we totally could. And then of course in the eighties I sure loved I would go to the grocery store with my mom. It was the thrift way and there was a whole aisle of of tapes, like in the grocery store. It carried, it carried all like the latest releases. Do you guys remember that?
Speaker 1:yeah, yeah, I totally remember that, because I was obsessed with that section of whatever store I was in, like my mom, if she ever couldn't find me, that's where I would be. It's like yep and then then it might've been a little bit after the eighties, but I remember being in a store called James way. Do you remember James way? No, it was kind of like a target, like a like a Walmart type thing. Um, and I remember that is where I bought the debut album from Wilson Phillips.
Speaker 1:Oh man, and, and it was in one of those like cd boxes that was like 12 inches high, that the cd was in the bottom, but the whole thing was like the artwork and the credits and all of that.
Speaker 2:Are you sure it was a cd? Yes, it was. It was okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was, but it was like a new thing, like it was like we're in the section where all the tapes were like what you're talking about and then there was this little bitty section of this new cd thing, totally yeah, they were still trying to convert people over yeah, man guys, that doesn't feel like it was that long ago I know, and yet it feels like a lifetime ago as well
Speaker 1:and now we carry small computers in our hands and pockets at all times, right yeah, it's crazy that have thousands and thousands of songs, thousands of songs, right, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2:It's nuts. And then, um, you know, there was the big HIV AIDS scare. I feel like and I it's interesting because I recently saw it was an ad for a documentary about that timeframe and you know but then the movie Philadelphia came out.
Speaker 2:I think that came out in the 90s but a pandemic with covet 19, but like that was an epidemic of its own, that sort of struck during our lifetime that I've never really gone back and gone like how did that affect? I mean I've seen a lot of, like I said, movies about it and things like that. But yeah, okay, so I looked up on reddit tell me what everyone remembers of the 80s and I mean just so many great things came up. Definitely people talked about stranger danger where you know everyone was getting kidnapped, and then the satanic panic. Do you remember that? No, any time somebody would get like found, murdered or whatever. It was constantly blamed on people being in cults oh gosh which is insane, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then this person wrote there was cocaine everywhere. We were buying each other grams for birthday presents when we were 16 oh my gosh, oh my god my god also, we got into bars at 15 and 16.
Speaker 2:if you were born 1966, it was easy to doctor your license and give the six an O. We lived in a city where weed was pretty much decriminalized. Anything under an ounce was $25 fine. Oh my gosh, my first year of high school the seniors had their own lounge where we would smoke cigarettes which is insane to think about that.
Speaker 1:What I do remember that in school I remember there was smoking court. Yeah, there was smoking court. Like when I was in middle school there was smoking court.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't remember that.
Speaker 3:That can't be real. We had like a corner, but everyone knew that's where you go.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh, you guys. I mean, there are probably still ashtrays in the airplanes, don't?
Speaker 3:you think?
Speaker 2:Yeah, they still are. Well, what are you flying?
Speaker 3:Spirit airlines. We go into any bathroom, there's still a little ashtray that pops out and it says no smoking and it's like, well, why is that even here?
Speaker 2:Well, what's so funny is that there was a smoking section and a non-smoking section.
Speaker 3:Yes, god, what difference does that make? Same with restaurants.
Speaker 1:My sister and I were talking last week about how we flew a couple of times from the United States to New Delhi, india, when my dad was stationed in New Delhi, the United States to New Delhi, india, when my dad was stationed in New Delhi, and she was talking the other day about the smoking section on Lufthansa Airlines, and we were like, yeah, like that was completely normal, completely normal. And then, like just in one week, this week, we've had more aviation crashes in the United. States and it's like let people smoke again.
Speaker 2:Give them whatever substances they are wanting. I mean, you just flew into DCA like days after that happened, right, I did.
Speaker 1:I did, yeah, yeah, it was very weird and I didn't even realize this. It gave me so much compassion for my mom and really it helped me remember that people care about me. But my mom said when I landed in Nashville I always text my mom and my sister when I land. It's just a thing that we do.
Speaker 1:I'm like landed safe in Nashville, like I've made it through one more tin can trip through the air, you know. And and so my mom said back to me and she was like I'm so grateful for prayers answered, especially after last week's tragedy, and I was like what? And it really made me think I was like my mom. My mom was praying that I would be okay which she does anyway, you know but it's like having having even more of a concern for me because of what happened to that plane that was flying into Reagan national airport and that is where was flying into Reagan National Airport and that is where I flew in and out of and clearly I'm fine, I'm still here, it was all okay.
Speaker 2:I'm so glad I texted you and asked if you were nervous about that. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:And I wasn't, and I said this to my mom too. I said how I just have a really strong belief, and I think what that could be translated into is denial. I think it's just didn't complete denial that like, because otherwise I would be too anxious to fly you know, what I mean. If I didn't just live in denial, I'd be like, oh shit, I'm not flying into reagan like you're crazy.
Speaker 2:Well, especially after they showed all of the um airstrips and they're like oh if, if you miss this, you're basically slamming into helicopters in the corridor.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly or right into the Pentagon, you know, no problem. Ok, I have a question for you guys like talking about flying and all of that, all of that. I experienced in my most recent trip, several things happening over the intercom, either on the plane or at the airport, of someone saying something like Mrs So-and-so, if you have left your phone on the airplane at gate G4, please report to the missing items. You yeah baggage thing or whatever. And it seemed like an excessive amount of messages about people leaving their shit, either like at security or on the plane or whatever it is, and it made me recollect the times that I have left something and what a drama fest it was to get my stuff back.
Speaker 1:And so it made me wanted to ask you guys like have you guys ever left anything on a plane and if so, what was your experience like man?
Speaker 3:my, uh, probably most memorable one and most recent one, I want to say it was either last year or the year before. Um, I left my laptop in the back pocket of the seat in front of me.
Speaker 3:And we had already gotten to our next gate and they were about to board and I realized it and I had to run back. I mean it was one of those ones where you have to like take a shuttle to the other like side of the world to get to that other corridor or whatever. And I mean I was sweating so bad and I was just running as fast as I could. I got it. I actually made the flight Like I couldn't believe it. It was like right before the doors were closing, but I was so stressed and just hot, you know which makes you more stressed.
Speaker 3:Yes, yes, stressed and angry for me Awful. What about you?
Speaker 2:I uh, I can't. I know I've left like an iPad on before, um, but the story I remember is I was with an artist who left their bag like outside the bathroom or something and by the time he got back to it there was like police and dogs sniffing it and all of this stuff. I don't know if it was an extra bag and he forgot he had it or what it was, but it was a whole situation where they were believing it might be something more than a bag.
Speaker 1:Well, and somebody listened when they say if you see something, say something.
Speaker 1:Well, sarah, I too left my laptop on a plane. Oh no, and I didn't realize it until I had landed, like. So I left it on the plane. I landed at my destination, the plane went wherever it was going and then, when I got like to my hotel or something, I was like, oh my God, I left my laptop on the plane and I remember I had to call like 50 numbers, I had to talk to like 50 different people, and somehow my laptop made it back to Nashville, um, to like the baggage desk area or whatever, and the person who gave me my laptop back, they said we want you to open it and we want you to log in to prove that it's yours.
Speaker 2:Oh wow.
Speaker 1:Like we want you to like enter your password. Which my password at the time was fantastical it was the name Jesus. I'm like anybody can guess that password.
Speaker 2:I remember most of your passwords were that or Jesus won, yeah, yeah, exactly, not like won the war, but won the number Just right. Yeah, jesus is my number one.
Speaker 1:It reminds me of one of the radio stations we work with in your hometown, Moose WAKW, pointing the way to the one.
Speaker 2:I don't know if they use that anymore, but it was always a finger pointing up on their ads, pointing the way to the one, and the one is up high in the sky, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, pointing the way to the one. So, as far as traveling, you're about to travel today, moose right.
Speaker 2:I am. I'm about to jump on a plane to Houston, and are you? And it's like 300 degrees there you're about to travel today. Moose right I am. I'm about to jump on a plane to. Houston, and are you? And it's like 300 degrees there, is it really February whenever we are? Yeah, nice, that sounds wonderful. I know I want to sweat my pits off.
Speaker 1:Amazing. I'm wondering uh, when you go through security, do you have yet the real ID?
Speaker 2:I think I do. I'm not sure. I think I have the real ID.
Speaker 1:I'm proud of you because you have to have it by May of this year to be able to go through security, or else you have to use like your passport, like you have to have a real ID.
Speaker 2:I'm crossing over to Canada before then.
Speaker 1:But that'll be America by then. So I don't know what you're going to do it might be America.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm going to go down to the Gulf of America sometime this summer and see the Gulf of America ocean.
Speaker 1:Yeah, do it Before.
Speaker 1:I run away to Canada. I went up to is it Goodlettsville, is it Hendersonville? Somewhere like really far, far north of Nashville? Um, and I went to that location to get my real ID done and I had to make an appointment and I had to make it like two months in advance. But it was awesome because I walked in and there was like 10,000 people in line and everybody looked pissed off and the whole room smelled like cigarettes. You know how like any government place is like, you know, and um, and I was like, oh my God, there's no way I'm going to stand in this line, especially cause I booked an appointment and I'm way back at the end of the line and the lady way up front goes is there anybody here that booked an appointment?
Speaker 1:And I was like me, me, and I got to break the whole line I got to literally yeah, I got to go to the front of the line and I was approved for my real ID in less than 10 minutes. It was awesome.
Speaker 2:Great work. What did you need to bring for those listening in Nashville?
Speaker 1:You need to bring 17 forms of identification.
Speaker 2:See, that's why I don't do these things. I would rather leave the country than find my social security card. Just get a new card. I'm just going to create a new identity and start over, well, your social security is not worth anything. I even have a file folder for it, but it's not in there Like where is it it's got to be in there?
Speaker 3:It's not Somebody stole Like, where is it it's gotta be in there? It's not Somebody stole it.
Speaker 2:I need to blame someone. It's never in there.
Speaker 1:I'm not kidding.
Speaker 2:I needed to get that out.
Speaker 1:Oh, it's fun to laugh. So in reality you need to take your social security card and or a passport nine bills that are current, bills that are, yes, that have your name and your address. It's like you have to bring your electric bill or your gas bill.
Speaker 2:You have to bring your fingerprints, yeah, and it can't be a digital bill.
Speaker 3:You have to give your DNA.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you have to give your DNA. Yeah, who's got paper bills?
Speaker 1:these days. Right, exactly, I'm like everything's on my phone.
Speaker 3:So stupid oh boy.
