promotions are absolutely painful at

0:00:04.500,0:00:08.099

least if you're not in a creative

0:00:05.759,0:00:10.110

I love promotions but if it's something

0:00:08.099,0:00:11.460

that you cringe at every single month

0:00:10.110,0:00:13.799

0:00:13.799,0:00:17.630

0:00:21.810,0:00:26.400

it all the time

0:00:24.330,0:00:28.230

but if it's like if but if it's like one

0:00:26.400,0:00:30.630

of those things like you got you have a

0:00:28.230,0:00:33.059

good pulse you have a good feel on it I

0:00:30.630,0:00:34.920

definitely recommend not using me but

0:00:33.059,0:00:36.500

it's one of those things like god I hate

0:00:34.920,0:00:41.040

this stuff

0:00:36.500,0:00:42.719

check me out anyways hope you enjoy the

0:00:41.040,0:00:47.100

podcast let's go

0:00:42.719,0:00:49.320

so this one is all about downtime and I

0:00:47.100,0:00:50.910

mean I should say offline time downtime

0:00:49.320,0:00:55.949

offline time whatever you want to call

0:00:50.910,0:00:56.370

it in today's digital world we all need

0:00:55.949,0:00:58.590

it

0:00:56.370,0:01:00.930

it is an absolute it's one of those I I

0:00:58.590,0:01:03.390

feel like and this may be a weird

0:01:00.930,0:01:05.489

analogy but and you may get it you know

0:01:03.390,0:01:07.200

when we all switch from like analog

0:01:05.489,0:01:10.229

keyboards like on the phones like the

0:01:07.200,0:01:14.220

QWERTY keyboards the physical keys to

0:01:10.229,0:01:17.759

like digital keyboards digital keyboards

0:01:14.220,0:01:19.740

and it was really weird filling I feel

0:01:17.759,0:01:21.600

like that's how the Internet is now like

0:01:19.740,0:01:25.380

I feel like our lives have actually

0:01:21.600,0:01:27.540

transitioned to being online it just

0:01:25.380,0:01:30.869

feels weird it's not like though it's

0:01:27.540,0:01:32.610

not you're not in touch in in it's not

0:01:30.869,0:01:34.200

how things used to be and I guess I'm

0:01:32.610,0:01:38.030

becoming one of those people it's not

0:01:34.200,0:01:40.950

like it was before what I was a kid

0:01:38.030,0:01:43.409

anyways I want to use this to as a

0:01:40.950,0:01:46.500

springboard a bounce board to talk about

0:01:43.409,0:01:49.710

something that me and Laura just

0:01:46.500,0:01:51.720

implemented into our kind of I wouldn't

0:01:49.710,0:01:54.380

say regular schedule but just in general

0:01:51.720,0:01:56.969

whenever we have friends over

0:01:54.380,0:01:59.909

instead of like doing Netflix and stuff

0:01:56.969,0:02:02.340

like that we've actually started taking

0:01:59.909,0:02:04.360

out board games right both ancient

0:02:02.340,0:02:08.800

things with dust on them

0:02:04.360,0:02:12.420

and what's crazy about this is it really

0:02:08.800,0:02:15.730

brings the attention back to real life

0:02:12.420,0:02:18.010

like everyone has their phone down not

0:02:15.730,0:02:19.330

everyone but for the most part everyone

0:02:18.010,0:02:21.790

has their phone down and we're like just

0:02:19.330,0:02:24.480

talking and chatting and back and forth

0:02:21.790,0:02:26.770

and interacting and thinking about one

0:02:24.480,0:02:28.900

focused thing that we're all focusing on

0:02:26.770,0:02:30.640

you know I mean like when you have when

0:02:28.900,0:02:33.070

you're in a room with when you go to

0:02:30.640,0:02:35.950

hell a restaurant when you go to

0:02:33.070,0:02:38.290

anywhere you everyone has their own

0:02:35.950,0:02:40.870

divided attention into their phone

0:02:38.290,0:02:43.870

there's like the attention it's not on

0:02:40.870,0:02:45.640

one focus thing like the only time you

0:02:43.870,0:02:46.990

see that as a freaking car wreck like

0:02:45.640,0:02:48.580

you see a car or everyone's looking at

0:02:46.990,0:02:54.700

the car wreck and then they're also

0:02:48.580,0:02:57.850

texting about it the I say this because

0:02:54.700,0:03:02.410

I think it is really key to my health

0:02:57.850,0:03:05.320

and maybe yours to like embrace a lot of

0:03:02.410,0:03:08.020

these older things that we've kind of

0:03:05.320,0:03:11.560

thought of as stupid or as like just

0:03:08.020,0:03:13.630

really old board games for example even

0:03:11.560,0:03:15.370

listen to CDs maybe I don't have a CD

0:03:13.630,0:03:17.830

player so I can't exactly recommend it

0:03:15.370,0:03:21.640

but it's being in touch with just like a

0:03:17.830,0:03:23.260

more physical world maybe a couple did

0:03:21.640,0:03:25.239

few days a month you know I mean I'm not

0:03:23.260,0:03:27.160

talking about like every single day

0:03:25.239,0:03:28.390

let's pull out the board game when I'm

0:03:27.160,0:03:31.170

talking about like you know we had a

0:03:28.390,0:03:33.730

couple friends over instead of like

0:03:31.170,0:03:35.890

looking at YouTube together maybe we do

0:03:33.730,0:03:37.870

something different don't get me wrong i

0:03:35.890,0:03:38.230

love youtube I love all this different

0:03:37.870,0:03:39.970

stuff

0:03:38.230,0:03:44.140

I love engaging in conversation but I do

0:03:39.970,0:03:46.780

think that we are that our age our

0:03:44.140,0:03:48.340

generation we have to think of we have

0:03:46.780,0:03:52.360

to really think intentionally about this

0:03:48.340,0:03:54.790

because we're living in such a lonely

0:03:52.360,0:03:57.459

world right now where everyone feels

0:03:54.790,0:03:59.980

like they have a million friends when

0:03:57.459,0:04:02.049

they have no friends and there's only a

0:03:59.980,0:04:05.850

few friends that are actually there that

0:04:02.049,0:04:09.549

maybe even that are coming from the

0:04:05.850,0:04:11.620

Dupre like I want to say pre-internet

0:04:09.549,0:04:13.030

but it pretty like wouldn't enter in

0:04:11.620,0:04:15.190

what pre Facebook I think I should

0:04:13.030,0:04:19.180

say that pre Facebook because Facebook

0:04:15.190,0:04:21.190

really did alter our trajectory I mean

0:04:19.180,0:04:26.460

in a lot of good ways and a lot of bad

0:04:21.190,0:04:29.380

ways honestly this has this isn't a like

0:04:26.460,0:04:31.270

absolute solution or anything I want to

0:04:29.380,0:04:33.669

use this as just a way of thinking or

0:04:31.270,0:04:38.290

talking about things that are existing

0:04:33.669,0:04:41.560

into like the end of 2019 where where we

0:04:38.290,0:04:43.930

all have we all have actual instant

0:04:41.560,0:04:48.790

access to video chat anyone at all any

0:04:43.930,0:04:51.960

and all times no cost really we can call

0:04:48.790,0:04:56.040

anyone at all times because we're all so

0:04:51.960,0:04:59.050

divided and so like just in our own

0:04:56.040,0:05:03.820

whatever own bubble like we don't do any

0:04:59.050,0:05:05.729

of that stuff and moreover not in person

0:05:03.820,0:05:08.169

pretty much ever

0:05:05.729,0:05:10.330

okay well I don't know if this helped at

0:05:08.169,0:05:14.290

all but this is just my thoughts about

0:05:10.330,0:05:17.020

maybe getting offline for a bit I don't

0:05:14.290,0:05:19.720

think he shouldn't I think that internet

0:05:17.020,0:05:21.790

is good and I think that all this

0:05:19.720,0:05:25.860

connectivity is good but I also think a

0:05:21.790,0:05:31.030

good just laugh with a friend is better

0:05:25.860,0:05:33.850

okay you know promotions are painful

0:05:31.030,0:05:35.740

remember if you hate doing them every

0:05:33.850,0:05:38.530

single month let me do them every single

0:05:35.740,0:05:43.060
