Claud is a Gift

23:17not really I smoked a lot in high school and I think that See, I didn't. I'm opposite. Do you know that theory of like you only have like 11 good smoking years in you or something? That really scares me. Nine? Seven? That really scares me. Eleven? Sorry. Which one? I don't know. I think it might be seven because 11 feels like a lot. Seven. Or maybe even four. I did those seven, I would say. I didn't start smoking weed until I was 26 or seven years old. Oh, really? Maybe 27, yeah. Wow. I never did before that. oh you missed like smoking weed in high school and like going to 7-eleven and getting a slurpee i think that's really good that i missed that it was so fun i know but i didn't need it i think it was good that it didn't find me then we would see like a cop in the 7-eleven and be like

24:05just getting our slurpee sir and we're allowed to by the way that's so fucking funny oh my god oh my god oh my god that's so funny no now i'm just getting Now I say I get high like maybe twice a week. That's a good number. It feels okay. What do you do? Do you watch a movie? Sometimes. Watch a movie. Go on a walk. Go out to a bar with a friend. Hang out. Hang out. I don't drink. That's over for me. I'm not drinking anymore. Okay, cool. Drinking's got to be over. Totally. I think we might need to end drinking in general. As I'm hungover right now, I would agree with that. Yeah. Yeah, today you're on board.

24:40I was out until three in Chicago last night. You're hungover on my podcast. I'm really sorry. I didn't want to say it. Claude. I know, but it's fine. It is. I'm doing amazing. It really is. You never would have known. You're kicking ass. This is how I am when I'm not hungover, too. I will say you seem very normal to me. I didn't really drink that much. You seem like yourself. Hungover from the night of just being awake. That's just the gift of hope you get from friendship. Being up too late. Exactly. The gift of hope you get from friendship is the theme of the episode I've decided. Can we title it that?

25:11The gift of hope you get from friendship. Too long. Too long? Yeah. Fuck. Fuck. What'd you say?

25:23Chance, I don't know if the mic will pick it up, but Chance just off in the corner of the room going, it is a gift. Shut up. One time, one time, one time that was me. I was on mushrooms and I was, I had a duplex apartment. It was like two bedrooms. I had three roommates. It was like two bedrooms on the top floor, then a staircase that went like right into the living room kitchen and then two bedrooms on that floor. And I was on mushrooms and I was sitting on the top of the stairs and my two of my roommates were like having a conversation in the kitchen. And they were talking about like. This these people we knew from college and like the guy was like always leading the girl on.

26:08And I knew these people from eight years ago or whenever. her at least I thought I knew them I actually am not even sure if I really do and I was sitting on top of the stairs and I was like you're right like he does lead her on and I was like crying and I was like it's so true like and she's so sweet and he like I just don't think he even knows he's doing it and then like five minutes later I hear them go hello hello they're like someone there no for five minutes that is so funny oh my god i'm crying i was like responding to their conversation yeah thinking they heard me and i was part of it one time i was uh helping a friend move who was uh on my bad side and so i was talking negatively about them while we were helping them move and i had moved i had moved the mattress a mattress that i was on the front end of carrying a mattress behind me like kind of like this and my other friend was behind and we were carrying it together right out of the house and then we're walking down the street to the car to like put it in there and i start talking shit on the friend that we're helping move not realizing that that friend had taken over the back end of the mattress from my friend so i was talking shit to them about them without realizing it so i was like i was like yeah i just don't know what the fuck he's thinking like god he's like he's like totally like i don't know even what i was saying but i was talking so much shit and then i turn around when we go to put the mattress and he's just like hey and it was so fucking awkward that sucks but also i wasn't wrong so i was just like i literally spent sorry went back and grabbed more stuff from the house what's your friendship like now uh really strong he's but it's complicated because he's um he has a really important job he's um he's the president which is like so random yeah of the country and so it's just like hard because he's like obviously i don't feel like he's switched up but he's just gotten really busy right right like so he's it's been the same as he's always been no he's like still my friend is in there somewhere but it's like he's busy and like yeah he's just been like we don't talk as much on the phone as we used to as much as you'd like i bet that's really hard but i remember the good times and like I have hope that when he's not in this job anymore like we'll like kind of get back to the way things used to be but yeah sometimes you can never go back to the way things used to be right I mean but we used to have so much fun yikes yeah it's hard sometimes really big job and they like I don't want to say he's changed because that doesn't feel fair but like yeah he's just like going through with something right now so like and that happens and that's like sort of the cycle of friendships like yeah but you know when you get on the other side of this your friendship's gonna be stronger than ever i had somebody tell me once that when your friend gets famous you have to give them three years to be really weird i think i know who told you that yeah yeah who grace maybe or did i tell you that because grace told me that someone told me someone in our friend group is spreading this and yeah that's what's happening with um dj okay oh this donald i yeah i just call him dj it's like from back in the neighborhood Right, not totally.

29:21Yeah, I just hope that he'll, I don't know, I just hope he'll come out on the other side of this job, like the guy that I used to know. He's not taking the fame well. No. It doesn't seem like. It's gone straight to his head. It's gone straight to his head, and he's being like, yeah, I don't know, we just used to joke about stuff. We'd be like, oh, you know, whatever, but now it's like he's really doing really crazy stuff. I thought we were kidding, but it turns out he was serious. that's really you thought everything he was saying was a joke yeah like you'd be like oh my god DJ that's hilarious we used to hang out back in the day and he'd be like I'm gonna do mass deportations and I'd be like DJ but then no he straight up is right which is crazy oh Caleb I'm sorry I know it's hard and it's hard but sometimes your friend succeeds and like things change I can't even remember why we started talking about this well that's because it's gone on for so unnecessarily long it's like the podcast is over I think he's going to be like, he cannot still be doing this.

30:19Yeah. Anyway, no, let's change the subject. This episode is brought to you by PayPal. You know how a mom's bag has everything? Sunscreen. Snacks. A stapler?

You're right. I'm very forgetful. Yeah. And there's always something I forget to say and then I really don't forgive myself. Yeah.

30:57Because I really want to tell you things. Maybe instead of trying to be better at remembering, you could get better at forgiving yourself. One time, Caleb, I asked you. Oh, my God. Chance, don't cry. It's okay. Chance is crying now because I'm so profound. Chance. One time, Caleb said to me, One time you were like, I was like, Caleb, you're so good at making decisions. Do you remember this? I was like, you're so good at making decisions. How are you so good at making decisions? And you're like, it's not that I'm good at making decisions. It's that I can handle it if I make the wrong one. Yeah.

31:28I tell a lot of people this in my life. I tell so many people that in my life, too, because you told me. Yeah. Well, that's what it is. People say this to me a lot. I have a lot of friends that are indecisive and struggle with decisiveness. and they asked me the same question of like, how are you so good at making choices? And like, it's not that I never make the wrong choice. It's just that I know that if I make the wrong choice, there will be consequences and I'm prepared to handle them. Right. And that's just what, you just have to get, you don't have to get better at making choices. You have to get better at accepting consequences.

31:58Right. That's all. It's just so good. Thanks. And then I was like, my response was like, I can't handle it when I make the wrong decision, which is why I can't make a decision. that's really fair anyway i'm gonna get into my story yeah tell your story okay so i was it was it was like a really really really hot day and i was the train the trains weren't working and i was running late to a meeting and i had to take an uber to the west village yeah do you know this story yeah i love this story wait how do you know it did i tell you when we were biking oh yeah yeah is it okay if i tell it now of course it's for them not me i'm nobody i'll tell you guys I was in an Uber and I was so I was heading into the West Village from Brooklyn and I was heading up like 6th Ave and 6th Ave turns like one the far left lane goes to the Holland Tunnel which goes to New Jersey and it's always like so backed up and I was in this Uber and the Uber like I was the whole ride was supposed to take like 25 minutes and I had been in the car for like 40.

33:10Jesus. Because he was like kind of not, just he wasn't driving great. Yeah. And so we were in the city and I was like, oh my God, like I've already missed the first like 20 minutes of this meeting. Like this is horrible. And we're sitting on 6th Ave and I'm like, okay, finally. Like it looks like the traffic's like breaking up on 6th Ave. Like the Holland Tunnel lane is like standstill traffic, but there's three other lanes going up 6th Ave that are just like flying. I was like, okay. Like I'm texting like be there soon. and I'm like texting, texting. I look up and I'm like, we're sitting in the Holland Tunnel Lane.

33:42Yeah. And I was like, oh no. Like if we go to New Jersey, like my whole day is over. Like I'm in the super for another hour. So I was like, excuse me. God, I cannot imagine you trying to do this. I know. Cause I was like, I know I'm not like, I never say anything ever. Yeah. Other than like, how's your day going? You know? But I was like, excuse me. like I think this is the Holland Tunnel lane and we're already we've been sitting in this lane for so long it's already like the dotted lines are gone like it's a single line like we're about to turn left into the Holland Tunnel and I was like it was a fucking nightmare it's a nightmare it would have added like an hour yeah and I think uber charges me for that so I was like excuse me like I think you might be in the wrong lane and then he just starts like yelling at me and he's like you think i'm in the wrong lane why don't you drive the wheel like well like i will i'm sorry like i'm sorry like get in the passenger seat i'll drive and he's like i'm in the right lane this is the right lane to be in like i was like i'm so sorry i said anything like totally like keep going he's like i can drive the car like i'm gonna drive the car i was like okay okay and then his phone rings and he answers immediately and it goes on the car phone and it's like happy birthday And that was after like 40 seconds of like back and forth.

35:02And then we went to New Jersey. And that was my birthday present to him. It is so funny for him to be screaming at you, get a happy birthday call, and then do exactly what you were worried about. I was like. King. I was like, look what we've done now. Where we ended up. There are people missing me in the West Village right now. I missed the entire meeting. That is so funny. Did you get forgiven about the meeting? Yeah, I was fine. I'm like early. I'm always early. Yeah. And so when I'm running late, it's like a fighter. Like my whole body starts like freaking out. It makes sense. That's not your nature.

35:44No, it's not my nature. I have a problem where anytime I'm early, my friend will inevitably be late. And so that's just my luck in the universe. Yeah, yeah. So it creates these wait times for me that are like 40 minutes. Where like I've come 15 minutes early and they've come 30 minutes late. Right. And it has amounted to me sitting here for 45 fucking minutes. That's tough. And so then I'm more upset with them than I even deserve to be because I exacerbated it by being early. Right, right, right. And the whole thing is just a nightmare. That is really hard. And I'm not European, so I'm not okay with this.

36:15No. I think being on time is really nice. I love being on time. Maybe this is my hot take. Yeah. Being on time is like, I think it's really rude to be late. Yeah. I really do. I think it's so rude to be late. I know. I try not to care so much because things happen, but it's like, man, I really don't. I feel bad when I do it, and I really don't like it when people do it to me. I don't like it. Like, I don't like it. I text people when I'm running four to five minutes late. Yeah. I say like 10 minutes before if I know I'm running like five minutes late. Yeah. I say, I'm so sorry I'm running five minutes late.

36:50Be there soon. To me, it's seven minutes. Seven minutes is the moment where it's - Because that's 10 almost. Yeah, seven's where it's like, now I'm looking around going, where the fuck is this person? Right. Five minutes I go, of course. Seven minutes is when you need to say something. Right. 20 minutes is when you need to be very apologetic. 20 minutes is like, you've done something crazy to me. Yeah, yeah. 15 - You didn't plan correctly. Exactly. Or someone died in front of you. Like, something has to have happened that was crazy. If you're regularly 20 minutes late to stuff, I do feel that you're rude.

37:15I think that's really rude. But some people have really bad time management skills. It's like you're born with it. They just don't know how to get somewhere on time. Yeah. I struggle with empathy for that. Me too. I really do. Because we teach it to kids. We teach it to kids. Sometimes adults tell me things that they struggle with that I'm like, for sure. But you do have to solve that now. Yeah. Like, I'm so sorry that that doesn't come natural to you. But it is time for you to go ahead and solve that. You understand that, of course. You know, it's been 50 years. They're like, I'm impatient and I can't read a clock.

37:51It's like, fix it. Yeah. Read a clock. Fix it. I don't know what to tell you. There's a certain point where like you just need to work on that. Yeah. Yeah. It's tough. That's a tough one for me. I could practice more grace though. I can't. I could stand to. I should. Okay. I shouldn't. I should, but I can't. I know that I can't. Yeah. That's crazy. I'm like a ball of fury sometimes. Really? no i'm acting that sounded really adorable i'm acting i just get so rageful if you were ever sincerely mad at me i think i would cry i would cry if you were mad at me i don't get mad i i just get really worked up internally yeah just you know and then i like eat something and i'm fine yeah what do you think is your best quality uh that's such a good question and it can't be like a professional thing it can't be like how good you are at making music because i already know that uh well that isn't i'm i don't know my best quality i can type really fast nice yeah like on i keep seriously yeah i can type and i can do it without looking do we have a computer in here that's not being used chance can you pull up the this episode is brought to you by paypal you know how a mom's bag has everything sunscreen snacks a stapler the new PayPal app is like that but for your money shop, pay, manage your account and earn rewards all in one place and with purchase protection on eligible items biometric security and pass keys you're protected at every step download the new PayPal app to get started see paypal.com slash protection terms WPM test will you do a WPM test for us right now?

Chance, bring it to me first. I just remember this one time. My mom, I think I get it from my mom because one time I was telling her a story. You have to keep telling the story and narrate while I do this, okay? Wait, okay. One time I was telling my mom a story.

40:04I was like, my teacher is being so crazy, giving us all this homework. And she's like, uh-huh, uh-huh. And I look, and she's going like this. Like, she's sending an email, and she's looking at me. Oh, she's sending an email, and she's looking at me while I'm telling her the story. And I don't think she's listening, because she's sending an email. But she's able to look at me. I thought that was really cool. That is really cool. I was like, when I grew up. One of these days. Yeah, exactly. Do you do home keys? Home keys. Like your fingers are all on the home keys in the middle, and then you just know?

40:38Or is it all just free finger? No, no, no, no. That's crazy. Wow. No, it's planted. Can I see what you're doing? Can I hear it? It's the one-minute version. Oh, my gosh. Am I allowed to say, oh, my God, on a podcast? No. All right, I'm taking over. My name's Caleb. You need to hear me. I'm going rogue. This is so true. Are you going to edit this out? No. This is all... Right, right. That's pretty good. Okay, my turn. All you do is start typing and then the timer begins. In today's increasingly hectic and stressful world, Claude is taking their typing test now. So far, they have gotten through two words.

41:35It's not looking good for their speed. What can I tell you guys about me? Why Claude takes their typing test? Well, we're hoping to get a new studio for the podcast soon, guys. I think that would be really neat. We're going to see if it happens or not. I'm moving into a new apartment at the moment, which is very exciting. The address is... Just kidding. You wish, freaks. Go on. Chance moved to New York. I did. Hello. Welcome to New York. Chance, how are you feeling about your New York City move? I feel great. I really love my place. I'm excited to explore the neighborhood a bit more, but I've just been spending a lot of time inside, setting all my shit up just so I can be free for other things.

42:13Yeah. That's really, really good. Yeah, it's really great. We're really proud of you. Thank you. I got a piece of chicken stuck in my teeth. I'll deal with it later, though. No one worry. Claude is nearly done. Just a couple seconds left here on their test. I believe that they've already beaten me, but we'll see. It's hard. Okay. They got their score. What'd you get? Yeah.

42:35your accuracy was 96 % 53 words that's bad what was yours? mine was in the 80s and mine was also bad just so you know 53 words per minute? I thought I didn't know like I'm better when it's I'm just free flowing this one had rules this wasn't fair this wasn't fair this wasn't a fair test we should have tested you on your own writing yeah just to see what you could have done yeah yeah i'm coming up with it on my own you're still really fast i would have been really fast if i also if you had a desk and like a setup i just feel like an actual keyboard i know that i personally would have done better in that situation right so i can only imagine what you would have done amazing yeah a hundred probably even more i think i've done in the hundreds before really like i think i've done like a hundred eighteen hundred twenty really fast i was moving i will say that was really bad what I did.

43:26Yeah. The work I did. Yeah, your work there was tough. That's funny. It's also funny that the intro to this was you voluntarily saying that's your best quality.

43:41You volunteered that that was your best quality overall as a person and then did one of the slowest. That's so funny. Oh my God, that's so funny, dude.

43:59Wow, I don't know myself at all. No, I think you do because I think you're faster. I think the circumstances were rigged against you. I feel that. I don't think so. Okay, just say that they were so you come out looking better. It was rigged. Just lie on the podcast. Sorry, I keep moving this couch. No, it's okay. You and the couch have a complicated relationship. I can feel it. How's this looking? You look amazing. Really? Don't ever worry about how you're looking because you look great. Thanks, Caleb. So do you. It's really about whether or not you're comfortable and whether or not you enjoy your life.

44:24I am totally enjoying my life. That's awesome to hear. I think run with that. Keep enjoying your life. What percentage of the time do you think you enjoy your life? Okay, so that's tricky because lately I am really busy. And I find it hard to be busy because I get really stressed out about that. Yeah. I get more stressed when I'm not busy. Opposite. Wow. I have total belief that I will be busy again and that things will come my way. I do not have the thing where I'm like, oh no, I need to be busy. It's healthier. What percent do I think I'm enjoying my life? Percentage of minutes in the day, I would say I enjoy my life 92 % of the time.

45:04That's a lot. Yeah. That's awesome. I think I'm really in the pocket of enjoyment of my life. That's really awesome. Yeah. I try to really only, I try to only do things that I like, but sometimes you got to do the dishes. Sometimes you have to, oh my gosh. Or take out the trash or whatever. I have to do the dishes right now. I know. Like literally, I'm not speaking figuratively. No, I could feel that. I literally have to do my dishes. I could feel that there's a dishes problem going on with you. There is. They're not dirty dishes. Well, they are. I was going to say that. Well, then you do not know what we're talking about.

45:38They are dirty. Yeah. But they're not like, I rinse them and then I don't have a dishwasher. So I rinse them and then I put them in the sink so there's not like food on them. Yeah. But they should be, you know, properly washed. No, having a dishwasher is really tough. It sucks. You're living a really hard life. But I only have three plates, so it's not that hard. That's smart. That's how you have to live when you don't have a dishwasher. You have to limit yourself. I don't have, like, a table. So I never host. So I only need three plates. Yeah, just three plates. And I've actually only ever used one or two of them.

46:10Wow, one plate unused. Yeah. For sale plate, never used. For sale plate. for sale quad plate never use i have a red plate a yellow plate and a blue plate the red one i use the most why are they all different colors well i thought that that was cute it is cute right it is cute i just didn't know if maybe there was some other reason i wasn't thinking of it's very cute primary colors yeah because when i when i moved into this apartment it was my first time like living in my own apartment without roommates and it was the first time i was like i have to buy plates you know because usually i just been using my roommate's plates yeah and now we need clod plates i need my plates so i went to the store and i i had so much free will like i didn't have pots i didn't have pans i bought three plates red yellow blue i bought a pot that i'm not even sure like is kitchen safe it has like a cute like round red lid with like a blue circle and like you can't sit really on the stove without balancing it kind it topples over yeah but it's so cute so one of the worst qualities for a pot is that it topples there really needs to be stuff in it yeah so i do have this pot now the one thing about it is it topples over but the pan matches that's nice and that topples too okay that's not good you got the toppling set but it was so exciting to buy it yeah it is fun to do that stuff so fun i have some plates of my own.

47:37Really? Yeah. What do they look like? Oh yeah, well my ones in Kansas City have a big red set. Oh, I like that. All red. The red plates, coffee mugs, bowls, smaller plates. I feel like you have really great interior design style. That is very kind of you. I've never seen it with my own eyes, but I feel like you really do. I want to thank you for speaking on that, and I don't think that I do. Really? I think I have decent. Okay. But it's not, I just, there's some things I can't figure out spatially. I get that. I can figure out like a couch and a rug sometimes, but sometimes I end up having really basic taste on accident.

48:11Sometimes I'll like something and be like, you're low key basic. With what? Give me an example. Like the things I like. Totally. Like I'll like a rug and be like, that actually is an ugly rug and not in a cute chic way, but in a way where like a woman from Ohio would have this in her house. Like in an Airbnb. Identically correct. Even better than yes. You have Airbnb style? Sometimes on accident. Okay. Like I really will like something because it's, I don't know. Sometimes I just feel that my interior design taste is not what it needs to be. I think I like really pride myself on having stuff that is kind of really random.

48:48Yeah. And I recently went to a friend's house in LA and they had the same rug as me. And I kind of had like an identity crisis. That's really scary. I was like, that's my rug. Yeah. But your rug, my rug, that's my rug. Where'd you get it from? I got it from, well, an ad. I got it from an ad on Safari website. Internet. I got it on the Internet. I got it from an ad on Safari website Internet. Absolutely, brother. Like, really, it's tassel. Honestly, I bet a lot of people have it. Probably. It was probably like some horrible website like rugs.com or something. Rugs USA. it wasn't that because i know that one okay but all those like rugs usa waif bear target even they all have the same rugs if you notice that yeah and they advertise to people like us they advertise to queer people in brooklyn because they're like you don't want to spend three thousand i'm telling you i went rug shopping yesterday some of them were in the seven thousand dollar range that's insane and i said you just have to be kidding it's really crazy obviously i won't do it i had a budget that had a high budget, but I was like, I will never in my life spend even a half of that on a rug.

50:02Rugs are really expensive. They are, it's crazy. And the lower budget you go, the more people have that rug. And the more that the rug actually sucks. It slips, slides. You get a cheap rug and you're like, this is ugly, looks bad, feels bad, slips and slides. I'm sliding all over my apartment with this rug. It follows me into the kitchen.

50:22It's a damn rug. This gosh darn rug. thing about rugs is you should do stand-up about your rug thing about rugs is they slide that was that by the way I would laugh at that I'm horrible at stand-up I tried it one time but don't ask but sometimes I feel like I have this recurring dream that like oh no I have to do stand-up like the opportunity it's not even an opportunity it's like I have to do it so sometimes that anxiety comes into my real life so I like have to practice jokes on my partner of course yeah and they are so lucky I'll be like like and then do they like it do they laugh or no I think it's like 70 % that's a good hit rate I know many comics would kill I'm like I am so funny in private I believe you and then you put a microphone in front of me and it's like I have three plates.

51:27And that was your big, yeah. And no dishwasher. Three plates was your big closer. Yeah. Oh, I have a question. It's called what's so true to you. I think that if you're canceling plans, I think we're like past the part. Like, I think we're past the age of like, you don't have to say why you can just say, so sorry. Can't make it anymore. Have fun. Yeah. I don't think anybody should expect a novel of like, why? Oh my God. You know, there's chipmunk you know you can't yeah traffic yeah you know you know squirrels like yeah squirrels are always part of it too that's the hard part i like i don't know i don't it's not helpful to anyone yeah because there's always a lie involved yeah of like oh just had the longest day you know and i don't want to i don't want to get a paragraph about it and i trust my friends enough to be like I can't come and know that it's for a good reason.

52:19Yeah. Or even a bad reason. And that's okay too. Yeah. I just also feel like if someone does it to you enough and you're annoyed by it, you can stop inviting them to things or whatever.
