I looked at the rundown today and I thought my birthday would be in there and it was not.

And I was like, oh God, do I say something?

Do I remind them?

Speaker 4

I didn't have to do that.

You'll remembered.

Speaker 6

Thank you.

Here it's for the ball.

Let's here it for easy.

Speaker 1

We did promise.

Speaker 7

You know.

One thing we love about Thursday episodes is we can do whatever we want.

Speaker 3

We wants like a mom and dad are on vacation, the dogs at like the Doggie Hotel, and the kids get to just throw a house party exactly.

Speaker 7

Yes, It's like Aaron's party.

Can get it, Come get it, Aaron Carter.

People around the book, everyone to go to sing oh his song oh my god, I miss that one.

Yeah, I mean the video was basically a feature film.

Anyways, so we sometime we lean into the games on this podcast, we lean into giving advice.

Speaker 1

We got a little bit of everything on Thursdays.

Speaker 3

Little sugar and a little spice.

Speaker 7

Mmm, little everything nice.

So we talked about this game on Monday.

We played it on my birthday around the pool and Tanya really took to it.

Speaker 3

Really loved it.

Speaker 6

At first, she was playing it incorrectly.

Speaker 1

At first, she didn't quite get the concept.

Speaker 3

And now that I do.

I played it all weekend with my family.

We played on Sunny's birthday and it's just it's been a big hit.

Speaker 7

So the game is basically like one person in the group closes their eyes.

Everyone else one person holds up a number and you agree on a number between one and ten.

You don't say it out loud, you just hold it up, so like, for instance, I could Tanya's eyes are closed, I hold up before got.

Speaker 1

It, Tanya.

Speaker 7

We're gonna say open your eyes, and then Tanya is gonna give us a category.

Speaker 1

It can be anything.

Speaker 7

It could be like a description of your first day at work, and you, as the people who know the number, are trying to describe what that category is in that number between one and ten, one being the worst, ten being the best.

So, for instance, when we first did it, Haley chose fast food restaurants and Tanya's and the number was seven.

Tanya chose Carl's Junior, and Haley was a little confused by that ranking.

And so then when it was all said and done, Tanya said, Carls Junior c A R L S j R.

That's seven, which is not how you played, but she got it.

Speaker 6

How you play If that's how you played it, you.

Speaker 3

Know, yeah right, yeah right, I should have known that.

Yeah, the champion, Yeah exactly.

Speaker 1

It's if you played it that way, everyone would win.

Speaker 7

So anyways, you wanted to play, you wanted to try it on the podcast.

Speaker 3

Yes, and I would love to be the first one to guess.

Speaker 1

Okay, but you have to you have a do you have a good category?

Speaker 8

Two?

Speaker 7

Okay, So Tanya is gonna this is gonna translate way better on the video that Crystal edits.

Speaker 8

But also listeners can play along with Tanya because they also don't know the number.

Speaker 6

True, So true, great.

Speaker 7

You're all playing with Tanya Tanya's team.

Okay, so Easton, you choose the number since it's your birthday between one and ten?

Speaker 6

Right, mm?

Speaker 1

Okay, got it?

Speaker 3

Yes, I'm looking now, yes, okay, the category is candy.

Oh yes, and I like candy.

Speaker 6

Milky Way good one, Mark.

Speaker 3

I'm thinking it's definitely above a five.

Speaker 6

Do we all give one?

And then she makes an official yea yeah, ok do you have one?

Speaker 4

Uh, Jolly Ranchers, mm hmmm mm hmm.

Speaker 1

I'm gonna say orange Starburst.

Speaker 6

Please take us through your thought process.

Speaker 3

So the Milky Way, I was thinking it's like a seven because who doesn't love a new game chocolate Caramelly fight, Jolly Rancher, I think is a one between the one and the eight.

I'm really thrown Becca.

Choosing Orange Starburs leads me to believe it's not Red Star Wars, which would be a ten, or a Pink, which would be a nine.

Orange is kind of mid.

I'm gonna say six.

Speaker 9

Yes, you are really good at the game that Yeah, so it's a real high because you kind of have to find the average because because you're kind of guessing, yeah, like what.

Speaker 1

Well, everyone's got different opinions, everyone opinions, and you're also.

Speaker 7

Me to.

Speaker 3

Fruity Suckable is like the worst camp.

Speaker 5

I love Jolly Ranchers, but I thought you were so so on.

I thought you were six seven.

Speaker 3

On them, not six seven, more like one twoday.

Speaker 6

All right, so let's go next.

Speaker 1

Okay, so close, you're picking the number?

Speaker 3

Okay?

Is everybody ready?

Speaker 1

Yep?

Hold one?

Speaker 2

No, there's only time Cricket got it?

Speaker 3

Okay, that's sorry to say.

Speaker 1

Is there a point five?

Okay?

Speaker 3

Mark?

Speaker 1

What's our category?

Speaker 8

Oh gosh, our category is Taylor Swift Songs.

Speaker 3

Oh that's an excellent category.

I've not played with it.

I cannot wait to take that one home with me.

I'm gonna say blank space.

Speaker 10

M okay to me, that is a solid song.

Upper tier, I'm gonna say not el each tier.

Champagne Problems takes a little higher.

Speaker 6

I think takes a little bit higher than I was what I was thinking, because I was almost in the six area like before.

Champagne Problems lifts us up a little bit.

Speaker 4

Easton, Uh, I'm going to say Invisible String.

Speaker 6

Oh, that raises is even higher.

So I'm between eight and nine right now.

Eight nine.

I'm going to follow Easton's lead and go with nine.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 10

Yeah, you guys, I'm so impresed.

Speaker 3

Blank Space was like one of her best songs.

Speaker 8

Seven on that one, and then she brought me up to an eight, and he brought me up to a nine.

Speaker 7

Well, because I was thinking of two ends, No, because that's a ten for him.

Speaker 1

That's it's on his top.

Speaker 7

Yes, So, and then I was gonna say Cruel Summer, which I also feel like he is on.

Speaker 6

Okay, okay, cool sory would be good.

Speaker 3

I was thinking blank Space was.

Speaker 6

It's a little it's one of those songs that I just off drilled.

Speaker 8

Shake it off would be much lower than that.

Yeah, what certain songs have been drilled into my Sarahbellum from working at KISSFM that I never need to hear them again.

Speaker 6

I've heard the heck out of them.

Speaker 1

Honestly.

Speaker 7

That category would be hard with, like really like a low number, you know, I would play it.

Speaker 6

Yeah, we have a few.

Speaker 1

Alright, you want to close.

Speaker 4

I'm closing my eyes.

You pick mm hmm, okay, ye're good, all right.

Speaker 6

What's the category?

East?

Speaker 4

The category is cartoon characters.

Speaker 3

Hmmm, I don't know many?

Speaker 6

Yeah, the one who wants to be a chicken hawk.

Speaker 7

I'm saying the parrot from Jaffar's Parrot Iago.

Speaker 4

Whoa wow, quite the leap.

Yeah, okay.

I was thinking it was low because we've got characters you don't know the names of.

But then the Yaga is a main cast.

Speaker 5

Yeah that didn't know the name of Yaga.

Speaker 4

I'm going with two.

Speaker 7

Wait, mine was more because he's kind of a bad villain and he's like just a sidekick.

Speaker 1

Like a hair.

Speaker 6

That's why I went with Catherine.

Speaker 1

Just had to ignore what he said, Shepherd.

Speaker 3

You gotta ignore that.

Speaker 1

We swept it for it was really a thrill.

Speaker 6

I don't know.

Speaker 7

I'm curious if our listeners got these right.

Speaker 5

This is like our cycles are synced up.

Like I didn't get to that crazy.

Speaker 1

That was crazy.

Speaker 7

I felt a lot of I don't ever want to go last again.

That was too much.

Speaker 8

Well, let's take a break and then we'll decide if we're going to continue or we're gonna.

Speaker 3

Okay, okay, we'll be right back.

Yeah, and I also I am so proud of the progress you made from counting the letters to where you are now.

Thank you.

Speaker 3

I'm not nothing if I'm nothing.

I'm not a student.

I'm not nothing but a student.

I'm not nothing if I'm not again, if I'm not nothing, if i'm anything, I'm not a student.

Speaker 6

I'm nothing if not a student.

That's what you're trying to say.

Speaker 1

That was wordy.

You had a lot of little extra words in there.

Speaker 8

Anonymous, Dear Tanya, Becca, Mark, and Easton.

I got married last month in Mexico.

It was awesome.

I didn't expect the emotional roller coaster afterwards, but it was joyous.

But there was some sadness that lingered because some of her close friends didn't show up, even two ex roommates I cared about deeply.

They canceled last minute and did not reach out afterwards.

Speaker 6

It made me.

Speaker 8

Realize some relationships I valued may have been more one sided than I want to admit.

I haven't heard about this side of getting married, the mix of gratitude, disappointment, reflection on friendships.

I'd love your advice and how to process these feelings and how to move forward without bitterness but still honor what I'm feeling.

Thank you for all the meaningful conversations you share on the podcast.

Listening to you both always makes me feel seen and grounded.

Speaker 6

What's nice?

Speaker 7

Well, first of all, congratulations, Yeah, you're so happy for you.

Speaker 3

We love weddings in Mexico.

Speaker 1

We love a destination Mexico wedding.

Did you have this happen at all?

Speaker 3

Not at my wedding per se, But I think the whole experience of like getting engaged, getting married, you do put all these expectations and like you see everybody else do it, so you have all these like things in your head, and like, especially in your thirties, it's different with than when you're in your twenties.

I mean like I never had I didn't do a bridal shower, I didn't do there was like we didn't do an engagement party, you know what I mean.

Like there's just stuff we didn't do because it was just like it's just so much.

And then you do like you feel like, oh, I'm disappointed that I didn't.

I couldn't pull it together and do that for myself, you know what I mean.

It's like you're only gonna have that once in your life.

And I think you just put so much expectation.

There's so much expectation on everything that it can lead to disappointment and so it's like I think, and also the post wedding blues is like such a thing because you spend so much time and energy into this.

You know, if it's destination, it's a weekend, right, and then it's over and you just like have this crash.

And it's so true.

I feel like a lot of people don't talk about all the emotional ups and downs that come with this season of life.

Even though it's the majority of it's high, right and you're like riding a high, there are these like these roller coasters and these disappointments, and I think it they're totally normal and they're totally valid.

I was really hurt.

I had some people that couldn't make it that did hurt my feelings.

But the end of the day, it's like those people that couldn't make it, they had to make a choice, you know, and at the end of it, they like regretted it and they're like, I wish I would have just like not done this work thing.

And I think you you can figure out, you know, what relationships you want to keep and what relationships you don't, And I feel like that your wedding is like a really good test of that.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I think that destination weddings there, it's a little more effort and time and money.

Speaker 1

Going to them.

Speaker 7

I think that what you experienced to people that you care about a lot, canceling last.

Speaker 3

This minute is crazy and.

Speaker 7

I don't know the reasoning, so all I have is what I have, which is that they cancel lust minute and didn't reach out.

I find that to be very rude and inconsiderate to you, because when you're planning a wedding, you're accounting for every person that says they're going to be there.

You're counting for their meal, their seats, they're everything just about them their part in it.

So I feel really sad that they first of all canceled and then also didn't reach out.

And I think maybe that's a sign of they're not a friendship that you need to move forward with.

If they didn't even take the time to congratulate you or share their sadness and missing out on your weekend.

Yeah, and if you need some closure on it, I think you just can reach out and say, hey, I have been thinking about this, and I understand it was a destination and maybe too much for y'all to get there, but I'm really sad that I haven't heard from y'all, and I just I needed to express that if we can move forward in this friendship.

Speaker 3

And like you do this thing in your head where you're like, oh, like I went to their wedding, so they're for sure gonna come to mine.

And then when they don't like you, also, that's like a letdown and a disappointment because you're like, oh, I thought our relationship was this and you clearly don't.

Speaker 10

Yeah.

Speaker 3

So I definitely had several of those where I was like, oh, dang, like, okay, it is.

It's very eye opening, and I think it's a good lesson in life.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Speaker 7

And I again, I think if there are people that you care about and you want to have relationships with, I think you it warrants a conversation because I do think a wedding is a pivotal moment in your life and the people that are there for that.

It's almost like who's going to be in this next season with me carrying us through our marriage and you know, like being there for the highs and the lows.

And I think if you want those people for to be there now and this season of life, you have a conversation.

But I also think if if you feel ready to let go of those relationships, then this is a time of going, Okay, I'm entering a new chapter and the people that were there are my people, and I don't need everyone who was a part of past seasons of my life to be part.

Speaker 1

Of my life now.

Yeah, but sure to focus on the joy.

Speaker 5

There is a dude I was working with a lot and hanging out with and can you Alison, really we invite him to our wedding and then the day of like, as I'm like walking, I was like taking my phone out of my pocket to like walk down the aislds like, hey, bro, not gonna make it sorry, Like like I was having like a you know, watching a football game or something, and we like I hung out them like two times after that or maybe even once, and like I haven't that was the end of the friendship basically, and maybe that would have happened anyway, but like I was, we still talk, like I still talk about it.

Speaker 4

That was like eight years ago, and I'm like, remember how Austin didn't come to the wedding.

Speaker 7

I was kind of you know, yeah, Well, I also think there's also a lack of respect of texting you on the day, Like, which is crazy to to not give you any heads up before but then to break the news like on the day.

Speaker 1

Is it just shows character?

Like that's a character flaw.

Speaker 3

Yeah, because I might trying to think of like obviously things come up, but I'm like, oh, if you're sick.

I still think if somebody were sick, I'd be like, come on, let's go wow rally.

Speaker 1

Well, they might not.

I don't know that.

Speaker 7

If someone's like really sick, I don't know that I want them spreading their germs around.

Speaker 6

I would this morning.

Speaker 3

I tried to kick him out of the building on my wedding day.

If you're coming, Like if I invited you to my wedding and you're coming and I'm so excited you're coming and you're sick, I'd rather you come sick.

Speaker 6

You're very sensitive to germs though I am.

Speaker 3

But on my wedding day, Like, who cares if you get sick after your wedding day.

You get sick on your honeymoon, am I My honeymoon was months after.

Speaker 6

I'm just saying not everyone, but my way.

Speaker 3

We should normalize that because going on a honeymoon right after wedding seems so crazy.

Speaker 4

I thought, even turning your wedding and do a super spreader normal Yeah.

Speaker 7

And I think if you get sick on someone's wedding day, you text someone that's not the brider groom, yeah, and like have them kind of figure out how to deliver the news, because I think the bridergroom having to take on not only reading that and it throwing them off in their vibe, but also having.

Speaker 1

To know what to do with that information is not fair.

So don't be that person.

Speaker 7

And also don't go super spread your sickness and what unless you mascot and sit in the very back and then leave.

Speaker 1

I don't want that so.

Speaker 3

For your wedding, but you better be there.

Speaker 8

And I see it from Paulina.

She called it the audacity Hi beca Easton Mark and Tanya alphabetical order.

That you have weekly with a long distance best friend is so fun.

Speaker 1

And I realized that sometimes.

Speaker 7

I was on a podcast recently and I was talking about scrubbing in the community, and I was saying, how special it's been because people have connected in different parts of the country and the world just through like liking this podcast, you know, and it's such a special, special community we've gotten to build and like people who have friendships and they've moved away and they you know, grew up together.

I do, but I thought I had to eat it.

Speaker 3

Yeah, like a dry cake.

There's nothing worse than a dry cake.

That would make me a sick of to bring it down, because you you gotta bring it down of hair.

Speaker 1

It's a little.

Speaker 3

Dry, slightly dry, but I'm gonna eat it, go out on that.

Speaker 7

No, no, no, no, Okay, I'm closing my I'm not doing last again.

Speaker 1

It was too much.

It was too much, So I'll close my eyes.

Speaker 6

Okay, okay, okay, A.

Speaker 1

Birthday day, like I want you to walk me through the day for east.

Speaker 6

Oh my gosh, oh for Easton.

Yeah, a birthday day for east.

Speaker 7

Based off the number that y'all chose that that type of day on his birthday.

Okay, Okay, Easton, you should go first.

Speaker 4

Let's see.

Speaker 5

Uh It's well, it's gonna start by I have to get up super early and I have to drive in traffic all the way across town and record a podcast about recapping episodes of my Dream of Genie.

And then I have to walk home barefoot and everyone forgot my birth.

Speaker 1

Oh my god.

Speaker 3

One, I mean, what.

Speaker 8

Do you need to go?

Speaker 7

Yeah, it wasn't one.

Speaker 6

Ones and.

Speaker 3

Do it again.

I'll go.

Speaker 6

All right, Okay, yeah, we got it.

Speaker 3

Okay.

My category is thanksgiving foods for Easton's birthday.

For Easton's birthday, I thought we're off the birthday team.

Speaker 6

No, we don't have can do giving giving to the season.

Speaker 3

Okay, Okay, I'm trying to think.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I'm gonna say green Bean Castle.

Speaker 11

Not bad next, Uh, it's mashed potatoes, but they're the instant kind gross.

Speaker 6

Yams.

Speaker 3

I love yams.

Speaker 1

I love well okay, so prime average yeah.

Speaker 3

Okay, an average between ten and the mash potatoes are getting me real low.

You said, what green bean castle?

I don't love that either?

Three, no, four, five, five mashed potatoes out of a carton.

Speaker 7

Sometimes they slap you were such a food snob.

Speaker 1

Yes, potato, potato, wouldn't even knowshed.

Speaker 3

Potato and hot water.

Speaker 11

And then you put the I'm busy.

Speaker 7

And you want to know if someone served you instant mashed potatoes and a pan, you would not know.

Speaker 5

I was thinking, real mashed potatoes are to me a ten, which is twice as good as five.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 7

Oh, and actually casserole is like it's not everyone's favorite, but it's delicious.

Speaker 1

And the castle is so gross.

You said not bad when I said it.

Speaker 7

Your reaction right off the bat, I was like, oh, she's gonna gets five, like not bad but not my favorite, and the yams.

Speaker 6

Yams like I can take her leave yams?

Speaker 1

What would be a five to you?

Cranberry sauce?

Speaker 6

I thought about cranberry.

Speaker 3

Cranberry sauce or like um, perhaps some dry stuffing.

No, specifically yes would be like a two no because I'd still eat it.

Speaker 6

Okay.

Speaker 7

I think stuffing in general would be a five for me, like like.

Speaker 3

Like some sort of like pie, like a cherry pie.

Ten apple pie is a ten.

Speaker 6

Ten pumpkin pies of five pie thrill me?

Speaker 3

Not getting it right?

We got it?

Speaker 6

And on fish finishing strong eyes are closed.

Speaker 1

You have a category?

Speaker 6

Yes, I do.

Speaker 1

Okay, wait did you see it?

Shoot?

Speaker 7

Okay, I was showing the.

Speaker 4

Okay, got it?

Speaker 1

Okay?

Speaker 6

Clear, yep.

Clear.

Musicians is my category.

Musicians would be my opinion on musicians.

I don't know.

Would it be how popular they are in current pop culture?

I don't know.

Speaker 4

It's for you to determine how many letters are in their name.

Speaker 6

Right, It could be that who's going first?

Speaker 3

I think we're all thinking.

Speaker 6

I understand that we have an obligation to the listener.

Often I have.

Speaker 3

One in mind, but I I don't think it's going to get us where we need to be.

Speaker 1

Uh, we'll have to speed.

This is deafening silence.

Speaker 3

This what's hard.

It's hard.

It's hard because for several reasons.

Okay, it's just hard.

Speaker 6

That's the main reason.

Speaker 3

Yeah, okay, I got one, all right, here we go Maroon five.

Speaker 8

Maroon five, I think is the kind of the height of mediocrity.

So I would put them at about a five.

So that's my starting point for this conversation.

Plus they're an older band.

They have some popularity now, but they're twenty one years as a band.

Of course, formally Caris Flowers.

So I'm starting at about a five.

And then we're gonna see what Becca and Easton say to guide me if I should go up or down or stay right where I am.

This is me vamping, because neither Easton nor Beca look like they have anything on the tip of the tongue.

Speaker 5

Everyone I keep thinking of it is this is too high.

We're blessed with so many great artists.

Speaker 1

So many I just don't know what.

Speaker 7

Oh, I'm such a good starting point.

Speaker 3

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I have another one there, take it.

Speaker 1

Yeah, throw me one, throw me a bone.

Speaker 10

I'm gonna say, Tom Petty, Tom Petty, how interesting now?

Speaker 8

Tom Petty is a legend who has passed on.

Yes, but I would put him in a higher tier than Ruin five, just because I enjoy a handful of his songs.

All of his songs.

I'm not a stand for Tom Petty, but I enjoy him.

So that's putting me a little higher.

That's putting me up in the six seven range.

Six seven And now Becca is going to drive it home.

Speaker 6

That was me is going to drive it home.

Speaker 5

I think so when you would put at the number we have chosen, which I almost.

Speaker 4

Said out left, is uh Eric Clapton.

Speaker 8

Eric Clapton, No, I can't stand there.

Speaker 4

Wow, here's the thing.

Speaker 8

But that's a hard thing because he's like, you know, it's a guitar players or whatever, but he's also going off the deep end.

Speaker 4

He separated the art from the artist.

Speaker 8

I cannot separate the art from there.

When that artist comes on my radio, it's going off.

But I see what you're trying to accomplish, though, So you're trying to drag me higher.

It seems like you're trying to use my age.

That's where we get Tom Petty or Clapton from I was thinking more current artists.

Speaker 3

Personally, I could give you one more current artist to really tip him over.

Great, you think that's a bad one to give him.

Speaker 7

If it's not, then I am absolutely baffled.

Speaker 1

If that doesn't confuse him, but I don't know.

Speaker 3

I'll keep it to myself, all right.

Speaker 7

No, actually share it, Share it with the class because I'm curious.

Speaker 8

Cali Ucciese Kaliichi Wow.

Interesting because that drags me a little lower.

I think that's another Yeah.

Speaker 4

Singer been ignored, all right, because.

Speaker 6

You two are trying to drag me higher.

Speaker 8

So I'm going to say she's like what she left gum under our counter about five years ago?

Speaker 6

Do you think?

Speaker 7

So that's funny?

Okay, so you want to be you want me to go current?

It's current Maroon five, yes.

Speaker 8

But that's part of it is there are current with quotes around.

If they're still touring, they're still active, they're still putt up music.

Infactally have a song right now that's getting airplay with somebody else.

Speaker 6

I forget who.

Speaker 1

Backstreet Boys.

Speaker 6

Okay, so dragging me lower again, they're not currently relevant.

Speaker 1

They just sold out the sphere.

Speaker 10

Yeah, like days they're like banging, but they're a novelty act.

Speaker 8

They're they're a retro act.

Same thing with them.

Speaker 3

I'm about to walk out.

Speaker 5

I have an idea that this is an artist that, based on data, is massive.

But I know how Mark feels about this person, which would knock it down a little bit.

Huh to where I think we might Okay, and that is uh Sneadville, Tennessee's own Morgan wallen See.

Speaker 8

I can't stand Morgan.

Yes, I don't understand how he has a career.

Speaker 4

But you can't deny.

Speaker 8

Yes, but he's extremely popular.

That's exactly right.

He's extremely popular in hisself out stadiums.

People tend to look the other way when people are racious.

Speaker 6

Monster.

Speaker 8

Okay, So I'm thinking we gotta go.

I think I'm saying seven.

Speaker 6

Yeah.

Speaker 11

Wow.

Speaker 7

So I went Tom Petty only for free Falling because I thought it's a classic song.

He has classic music, but he's not like ten.

Speaker 6

Yeah, that's true.

That's true.

Speaker 1

And it gave me a little hight from the Maroon five five.

Speaker 3

Was like they were peak in the nineties.

Yes, and they're just a little bit below now.

Speaker 6

Which is it came along in two thousand and four.

Speaker 3

I'm just saying Calucies is like breaking records and like doing crazy.

Speaker 6

She's like a last time with Caluci's on our radio station.

Speaker 3

I don't that doesn't matter, it doesn't, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1

It's seven to you.

Speaker 6

Ah, that's a great question.

Speaker 1

Would you say, like doci is the seven.

Speaker 6

In the seven range?

Speaker 3

Oh my god, I can't.

Speaker 1

I'm just saying of.

Speaker 6

Like people that Ravenna.

Speaker 3

That's actually pretty good.

Speaker 1

I know that is.

Speaker 3

I know.

I wish you were right here.

Speaker 6

So anyway, it's.

Speaker 7

Hard with current artists now because a lot of them have a one hit that we sing for a long time and then we don't hear from them again.

Speaker 8

Well, maybe I should have been more specific, maybe like maybe rock artists or current pop artists or rap artists regardless, would Alex.

Speaker 6

Warren had probably a little higher based on the run nine.

Speaker 1

That's actually I think that's a good seven.

Speaker 6

That's not bad.

Speaker 5

I personally he's a hard seven, but I ended.

But also he's another one, like you said, he's just breaking records and everything.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 1

Wow, good time.

Well thanks for bringing it home because.

Speaker 6

We went we got it.

What's the name of that game.

Speaker 3

It's just Wavelength.

Speaker 1

No, that's what.

Speaker 7

There's an actual board game called Wavelength.

That's just called the number game.

Speaker 6

The number game, the ratings game, the ranking is game.

Speaker 1

Yeah, rankings, rankings, ratings.

Speaker 7

Maybe you can come up with something that that is associated with the podcast, but we'll work on that.

Speaker 10

Yeah.

Speaker 7

Yeah, we'll probably never return to this conversation, but we'll try.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 1

That's all for now, Easton, Happy birthday.

Speaker 3

Speaker 1

Speaker 7
