Hi, this is Rachel McAroy. Hello, this is Griffin McAroy. And this is wonderful. I'm feeling very peaceful today. Oh, I'm glad what uh, what changed?

0:28.0

Well, I've been chewing a conatia. Oh, yeah, what does a conatia look like? Uh, plant. Uh-huh. And so you just put that plant in your mouth? Found some wild

0:42.0

echinacea in the yard while I was doing my gardening, dug it up or perhaps snipped it off the tree that it grows off, popped it in my, popped it in my

0:53.3

head. That's the sound of the echinacea. Yeah, okay. And it's giving me lots of calmness, centeredness, centeredness. Uh-huh. Are you on my level now? I'm, you and you are always so calm and centered. That's the two words I would use to describe you all the time. And wait a minute. Are you being sarcastic? Are you being sarcastic? And also, are you on the echinacea and have been

1:23.3

since as long as I've known you? Um, well, and now this is just who I am. Okay. This is my level just all the time. Sands echinacea. If I took echinacea, you would be dead. Your heart would stop. You would still be living and walking, but your heart would be at like two BPMs. Yeah.

1:41.3

And it wound that we measure our heart rate and the tempo of songs. Beats per minute. The same measurement. That's beautiful. I know it's beautiful. It's like our bodies are always making music. And these are the kinds of

1:54.1

observations that I can make now that I'm on the echinacea I found in our yard. Yeah. It could have also just been some roots of a plant or a bush that I would look at. And I was like, I don't, I, that seems like echinacea to me. Shoot it up. And it gave me calmness. So here's, that's what it is. Could it have been toxic? Some sort of toxic plant that I have been poisoned by. Yeah. I'm worried about that a little bit. I think for sure, for sure.

2:24.1

But all I know is I love you. I love our family. And I love this show. Yeah. And I'm excited to do it with you. I think I am deeply addicted to echinacea. Do you have any small honors? Oh, you gave me so much time. I did. And I was sitting there. I mean, obviously listening to you and tending. Yes. But also trying to come up with something to say. Yes.

2:54.9

What do you go first? Why don't I go first?

2:59.7

This is nice. This is nice for the listener because they think we're probably like generally positive upbeat people that don't have any trouble thinking of positive upbeat things. But hey, turns out.

3:10.1

Well, it's a muscle. We've been. It is a big muscle. And we've been doing this show for three or four years now. So the question of like, I could, I could say just jelly beans.

3:22.1

But you know this. They know this already. Yeah, they know jelly beans. Have we talked about gushers?

3:29.3

Probably I got gushers from a grocery store and I brought them home. And I was like, what are these like? It was actually more like you to break off a piece of the break of gushers.

3:38.0

The gushers fuse together. But we like that about gushers. We love the gooey mess they make. So there it is. Gushers. Happy now. America.

3:46.9

I came up with my small wonder in your rant. Good. Let me say the vacuum vacuum. We got a good one. Yeah.

3:57.9

We've done dust busters. This is big. This is not dust busters. This is tall vacuums. Everybody stop writing that complaint. We know. We know we've done dust buster.

4:08.7

I am surprised continually how when you vacuum a carpet all of a sudden it's like, look, look at this room. Look at this room now. Look at this house. I just moved into yesterday. Yeah. Yeah.

4:19.7

Yeah. We've been having to do that a lot because we are finally that bathroom finally getting our house fixed from when it froze in February.

4:27.7

Yeah. When you make a bathroom, you need a lot of different people in the village. Oh, it's like a pizza pie isn't that

4:34.5

through. And so we've had a bunch of different people coming through and everybody kind of has different policy on what they

4:40.5

Yeah, what they will and won't track through your house. And they're doing hard work. They're working their butts off. We're not once they complain. Luckily we have vacuum.

4:48.5
