| 0:12.1 | center in the shade, and people think we're freaks, as always. Got to do what you got to do for the |
| 0:16.4 | podcast. We're bringing this content, you know, we're in the charger and we're getting it done. |
| 0:21.8 | Hellcat, buddy. |

| 0:35.8 | Every Monday I'm fired up. |
| 0:37.1 | We're a little loopy. We got Starbucks tea today. We got the Passion tangos with no lemonade. It's about 45 calories for Grande. And I think it's delicious, you know, for a nice little tea. Yeah. It's very refreshing. You know, and that's a good question. Will I get fat by drinking Starbucks? That's going to be my question. |
| 0:55.0 | What do you say? |
| 0:56.3 | Absolutely not, but there's definitely some better choices you can make. And I love, there's a lot of macro hacks. There's a guy I follow on Instagram. He's like a macro barista with like different ways to make your lot tastes better. But anyways, like... I know if you Google Starbucksbucks macro friendly you can find variations of all your |
| 1:12.5 | favorite drinks that will cut a ton of calories and even you know me and kyle we're really big on um |
| 1:18.1 | just doing little things like if you avoid the lemonade you know if you avoid the cream and you sub it for |
| 1:23.5 | skim milk and these little moves you know less pumps of sugar you could be saving like |
| 1:28.7 | four or five hundred calories it's pretty wild like if you get a venty you know double |

| 1:53.4 | You know it's like if someone bought everything for you your entire life you'd have no idea how far a dollar goes |
| 1:59.0 | What what costs but the second you start to understand things you can say say, well, I can't afford this, or maybe I could budget for this. And it's the exact same thing with macros. So I think that's a really, really cool tool you can kind of have. We're also huge advocates of logging absolutely everything.
