<v Speaker 3>twenty five, and I saw it the first day. It's

<v Speaker 3>the second time i've seen it now. The first time

<v Speaker 3>I saw it, I was actually stuck in traffic and

<v Speaker 3>I tried to grab a picture, but I know wasn

<v Speaker 3>me on my hone, so I didn't try.

<v Speaker 1>That too long.

<v Speaker 3>oh oh, like big guy didn't have enough time in December.

<v Speaker 3>Here he is again hanging out in the summertime, looking

<v Speaker 3>for the North Pool.

<v Speaker 4>I am just like so excited.

<v Speaker 1>I don't know why.

<v Speaker 3>It instantly put me in a good mood, but seeing

<v Speaker 3>Santa in the summer months, I was like, my dude,

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so it's like the metal assembly decoration with the Santa,

<v Speaker 3>you know.

<v Speaker 1>And he's right side, like he's standing, he's.

<v Speaker 4>On his side.

<v Speaker 3>It's not too much eggnog, for sure, but it's just

<v Speaker 3>so funny.

<v Speaker 4>It is just such a sight to see.

<v Speaker 3>In June in Denver, Colorado, a big Santa decoration on

<v Speaker 3>the side of the road of I twenty five. So

<v Speaker 3>No, it's on I twenty five, right on northbound nine

<v Speaker 3>twenty five on the side on the shoulder, the less

<v Speaker 3>just hanging out on your left.

<v Speaker 4>If you're going northbound, it's gonna be right there.

<v Speaker 1>You're driving.

<v Speaker 4>And if you send pictures of reindeer, well we may

<v Speaker 4>have a pass for you.

<v Speaker 1>That's a feat, Katie. You missed out. What's that you

<v Speaker 1>missed out?

<v Speaker 2>Because you weren't in the studio and it was quiet,

<v Speaker 2>and I was eating an apple. Oh that's about halfway

<v Speaker 2>through that beach, and I looked over at Josh and

<v Speaker 2>I go, hey, I apologize.

<v Speaker 1>This is probably one of the loudest foods you can eat.

<v Speaker 1>That sported on my face. Okay, he was into it, though.

<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

<v Speaker 2>I was just sitting here, just crunching away on a

<v Speaker 2>big old honey crisp from Costco, and I was like, man,

<v Speaker 2>this is the loudest food you can eat with so

<v Speaker 2>I was almost disgusting myself out. I was like, I

<v Speaker 2>didn't say anything, and I just apologize.

<v Speaker 4>I was like, I'm sorry, you're getting your fruits in.

<v Speaker 1>I guess get my fiber.

<v Speaker 3>In right, getting my fibers in fibers about annoying as

<v Speaker 3>protein right now, isn't it like he just needs I

<v Speaker 3>had no idea. It was so important, really get idea.

<v Speaker 2>You know why I'm getting my fiber in. I'm gonna

<v Speaker 2>tell you a little story really quick.

<v Speaker 4>Okay.

<v Speaker 2>I went to the doctor yesterday. I've just been feeling off,

<v Speaker 2>and I think it's manopause, all right.

<v Speaker 1>I think he's just manopauseical.

<v Speaker 2>I'm just off and doc is like, hey, bro, let's

<v Speaker 2>run some blood tests. I mean, you just did your

<v Speaker 2>physical about six months ago. He's like, but let's just

<v Speaker 2>recheck some stuff. He's like, I'm gonna add some things

<v Speaker 2>to it, oh, just to see if we can pinpoint

<v Speaker 2>why you've just been a little little funky, you know,

<v Speaker 2>not sleeping good. And we talked about low T and

<v Speaker 2>all that, and I'm like, hey, when when does that start.

<v Speaker 2>He's like, well now, and I said the S word

<v Speaker 2>out loud at my doctor.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So anyway, he's gonna run a bunch of tests

<v Speaker 1>on the which it won is funny to me. He's

<v Speaker 1>running a whole STD test on me.

<v Speaker 2>I'm laughing at it because I laughed in the in

<v Speaker 2>the doctor's off, He's like, you got syphilis or HIV?

<v Speaker 1>And I was like, what I help not, you know, legitimate.

<v Speaker 2>Questions because I've just been fatigued and off, Yeah, okay,

<v Speaker 2>that's fine.

<v Speaker 1>I go, hey, man, I've.

<v Speaker 2>Been with my wife for like twenty five years. I

<v Speaker 2>was like, the risk is low, I go, unless she's

<v Speaker 2>you know, yeah, what's going on, you know when I'm

<v Speaker 2>not home. Uh, but I found that part incredibly funny.

<v Speaker 2>So anyway, so he does this thing, he's clicking away

<v Speaker 2>on his laptop, you know, initiating all these tests and

<v Speaker 2>everything that that he wants done on me. And then

<v Speaker 2>I go to a separate room where the lady draws

<v Speaker 2>the blood.

<v Speaker 1>Sweet little old lady. Okay, she's just the sweetest I've

<v Speaker 1>seen her before.

<v Speaker 2>And we're in there just chit chat, and she's like, Okay,

<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna we're gonna do this test and this test,

<v Speaker 2>and she's just kind of going through everything. She's like, oh,

<v Speaker 2>I need this many vials of blood and remember she goes, oh,

<v Speaker 2>and then did he tell you that he needs a

<v Speaker 2>stool sample?

<v Speaker 4>Oh? You can't just do that on command?

<v Speaker 2>Like, I'm like, is that where the syphilis is?

<v Speaker 1>Is that where you would find the syphilis.

<v Speaker 4>So you have to take that home, right, that's a

<v Speaker 4>home sample.

<v Speaker 1>Well. I panicked in the moment write this. I was like,

<v Speaker 1>I'm at the doctor's office. I don't think I'm.

<v Speaker 2>Gonna go down the hall and do that and bring

<v Speaker 2>you back like a turd on a napkin.

<v Speaker 1>I don't know how it works. What does that do

<v Speaker 1>they hold a Ziplin bag under me? Or like, how

<v Speaker 1>does that work?

<v Speaker 4>Cocktail napkin?

<v Speaker 1>What do you mean you would need a you need

<v Speaker 1>a broad paper towel napkin?

<v Speaker 2>And I was like it was funny too because I

<v Speaker 2>kind of had just the stomachache yesterday too, like just nerves,

<v Speaker 2>you know, and all that. And I was like, this

<v Speaker 2>is probably not the best time to get it's not steol.

<v Speaker 2>I haven't had a lot of apples in the morning,

<v Speaker 2>a lot of apples. My fiber intake is exquisite, you know.

<v Speaker 2>I had a slight panic in the moment, like I'm

<v Speaker 2>going to destroy that bathroom.

<v Speaker 1>Because it's not gonna be good and I don't know

<v Speaker 1>how to collect it when it's watering. It's on my hands, sir,

<v Speaker 1>you're dying.

<v Speaker 2>The doc will come in and be like Yep, you

<v Speaker 2>got the syphals slips on it.

<v Speaker 1>So anyway, No, she hands me this thing that they call.

<v Speaker 2>That like I think it called the hat or something

<v Speaker 2>like that, and it looks like a hat. It looks

<v Speaker 2>like it's got a wide brim on it and like

<v Speaker 2>a hole.

<v Speaker 1>It looks like a cowboy hat.

<v Speaker 2>And you apparently put that on the toilet at home,

<v Speaker 2>thank god, and you go in the hat and it

<v Speaker 2>collects it.

<v Speaker 1>And then she proceeds to tell me. She's like, oh,

<v Speaker 1>just give.

<v Speaker 2>Me a cup, like almost like a ur analysis. It's like,

<v Speaker 2>we just need to fill it up to hear it.

<v Speaker 1>It's not much. She's like, when you're at home, uses

<v Speaker 1>spoon and just spoon it in. Spoon it in like

<v Speaker 1>ice cream.

<v Speaker 2>Am I gonna use like one of our spoons from

<v Speaker 2>our silver drawing?

<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna use this bachelor or something.

<v Speaker 4>You better use a plastic.

<v Speaker 1>You know what I mean. But then it's like, then

<v Speaker 1>it's in the hat. Yeah, what do you do with it?

<v Speaker 1>You don't you only need a little bit, Leave it

<v Speaker 1>for your son or something in the bowld. Yeah that

<v Speaker 1>I guess. You just walk it out to the trash

<v Speaker 1>can or something on the side. Of the house and

<v Speaker 1>just PLoP it in.

<v Speaker 4>Yes, you do.

<v Speaker 1>You know?

<v Speaker 2>Anyway, I had to tell my wife and children about

<v Speaker 2>this last night at dinner, which made for great dinner conversation.

<v Speaker 2>I honestly don't even know what they were looking for

<v Speaker 2>with that. Maybe somebody can tell me that the doctor.

<v Speaker 2>But yeah, apparently they need a little some jare poo

<v Speaker 2>sample little poop bear. It was funny because I mean

<v Speaker 2>it is truly like half an inch that they need

<v Speaker 2>and the cups, you know, like you know, two three

<v Speaker 2>inches tall. And I told my wife, I was like,

<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna fell this thing to the you did. I'm

<v Speaker 2>gonna fill it all the way up if you just

<v Speaker 2>handed and Jared and I'm like cranking the cap on

<v Speaker 2>and it's coming out the sides. You know what the

<v Speaker 2>funny thing is to after I do it, I have

<v Speaker 2>to put it in the freezer, and I keep it

<v Speaker 2>in the freezer to it yeah. Yeah, so it's gonna

<v Speaker 2>be in there next to the otter pops.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

<v Speaker 2>And then I got to take it back and just

<v Speaker 2>hand it to the lady at the front desk.

<v Speaker 1>I guess is how they want it.

<v Speaker 2>She's like, bring it back in and give it to

<v Speaker 2>the front desk like all those poor people here's yeah,

<v Speaker 2>I might actually put it in the freezer next to

<v Speaker 2>the fudge sickles. That's where don't tell the kids friends

<v Speaker 2>and when they come.

<v Speaker 1>Over there, Oh my life. Would you like a promotion?

<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

<v Speaker 1>Well does it hold up?

<v Speaker 4>Hold a tell me more before I agree to it.

<v Speaker 1>No, I don't know.

<v Speaker 2>You'd get more money, a more prestigious title, but you know.

<v Speaker 3>Like a work Yeah, you're a stranger to hard work though,

<v Speaker 3>like I don't mind working hard.

<v Speaker 1>Well, then you wouldn't fit into this story at all.

<v Speaker 2>Oh story here says Americans are turning down promotions due

<v Speaker 2>to burnout. Uh, people just don't want more work. They

<v Speaker 2>don't want to advance up the corporate ladder because they're

<v Speaker 2>just generally burnt out. They don't want a high paying promotion.

<v Speaker 2>They just want to be where they are and just

<v Speaker 2>keep gliding along. I guess even though they got burnout.

<v Speaker 2>That's weird to me anyway. They want to prioritize work

<v Speaker 2>life balance overclimbing the corporate ladder.

<v Speaker 1>That that's a big part of it.

<v Speaker 3>I think also just the inclusion of AI and how

<v Speaker 3>everybody's job like everybody's worried about it affecting their job first.

<v Speaker 3>But I think that companies are saying, well, hey, if

<v Speaker 3>you don't want to do this, we'll just get a

<v Speaker 3>robot to do it.

<v Speaker 4>So you know what I mean, there's a lot of that.

<v Speaker 3>There's a lot of that contributing to the burnout I think,

<v Speaker 3>to where they're like, I don't want to have anything more.

<v Speaker 2>You know, they say Americans are increasingly valuing mental health

<v Speaker 2>and well being over a higher salary because at that

<v Speaker 2>higher salary, it comes, you know, you become a babysitter

<v Speaker 2>two of the people underneath you, and you.

<v Speaker 4>Just I just don't have time, money, more problems.

<v Speaker 2>Now, get this burned out gen Zers, gen Zers are

<v Speaker 2>already burned out.

<v Speaker 1>This is coming from the New York Post.

<v Speaker 2>They're claiming that gen Zers and some millennials are so

<v Speaker 2>burned out in corporate America right now that they are

<v Speaker 2>taking many retirements. They're looking to stop working for a

<v Speaker 2>while as part of an adult gap year or many retirements.

<v Speaker 1>I can't get a gap year. How do you do that? Well,

<v Speaker 1>you stop working and you move back in with your parents.

<v Speaker 2>I guess I didn't know this was this is this

<v Speaker 2>is new to me.

<v Speaker 4>That seems to me like working backwards or going but right, Like.

<v Speaker 2>Yes, because you would take a year off and then

<v Speaker 2>you're basically going to be out of a job.

<v Speaker 1>Then you've got to start fresh somewhere else.

<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, But the hashtag adult gap year is trending on

<v Speaker 2>TikTok and thousands of youngsters are ranting about corporate America

<v Speaker 2>and instead just diving full into like side hustle culture.

<v Speaker 2>So I guess if you're doing a side hust you're

<v Speaker 2>not fully retired. But yeah, this story does go on

<v Speaker 2>to say that a lot of them are just kind

<v Speaker 2>of moving back home to you know, help at home

<v Speaker 2>and make your cash stretch a little bit further, but

<v Speaker 2>you not far. That puts you behind. Too far is

<v Speaker 2>like retirement and all that and saving and just keep

<v Speaker 2>working now and sock it away and then you can

<v Speaker 2>retire at like fifty five, you know, and then enjoy

<v Speaker 2>your later years.

<v Speaker 4>Maybe that's going to be possible for this generation.

<v Speaker 3>I really don't. Everything's getting more and more expensive. I

<v Speaker 3>just saw a story that said, like they looked at

<v Speaker 3>women specifically, and it's eighty four percent of women aren't

<v Speaker 3>comfortable with their current salary. They're saying that cost of

<v Speaker 3>living is outpacing what they're making and it makes them nervous.

<v Speaker 4>So I don't know.

<v Speaker 3>Wasifically pointed at women that would that study specifically was women.

<v Speaker 3>But I just I don't know if it's going to

<v Speaker 3>be possible for people to retire fifty five.

<v Speaker 1>Well it is.

<v Speaker 2>You just got to cut back your streaming services. You

<v Speaker 2>got to stop buying the latest iPhones. You don't need

<v Speaker 2>to wear designer clothes, you don't need a driver Mercedes.

<v Speaker 3>You need all those things making which just cost of living.

<v Speaker 3>In general, everything is increasing except people's pay.

<v Speaker 1>Buy chicken, not beef. I'm just saying, hey, what's that

<v Speaker 1>being said? Katie needs a car?

<v Speaker 4>Oh we're saying this again.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Katie needs a car. If anybody has a car

<v Speaker 1>for sale.

<v Speaker 4>Hait up, Katie, Katie is a bike. Katie's fine, But.

<v Speaker 1>Katie's car went could put out of nowhere, and Katie

<v Speaker 1>needs to.

<v Speaker 4>Point out Katie just paid off her car Boom, no moss.

<v Speaker 2>So yeah, Katie, you'll take anything right now, even if

<v Speaker 2>you have a little school bus. If somebody has one

<v Speaker 2>of those little school buses, we want Katie to drive

<v Speaker 2>that around and put the.

<v Speaker 1>Mixed logo on the side.

<v Speaker 4>I'll get my commercial driver's license, a
