I I used it for a while. >> That's not efficient. >> Feel as clean for some reason. >> But it the feeling and and the objective truth is that you This is ████ really primal. >> Yes. >> Oh, yeah. >> Yes. If we go to ████ gum on the sidewalk, if I do a manual toothbrush, I bet you I clean that gum way better than electric one will. >> Yeah.

You're still moving. >> Hey, they have some that play songs while they are on. Yeah. Plays music and stuff. Ever seen that? >> The songs one. >> It's mainly for kids, but >> that'll be dope if they play the song of the exact link you're supposed to be brushing it for. Then when it's song's over, oh, cool. Done. >> That'll be tight. I'd do that one. >> How long are you supposed to do it for? >> Like two minutes. >> That's too long. >> I get bored.

You just eat a Reese's and then just get in there. >> That's why I don't like mint flavored um ice cream and stuff. Oh, because it reminds you of toothpaste. >> It feels like toothpaste ice cream. >> Oh my god, you're going to ruin mint ice cream for me. I love mint >> mint ice cream. >> I like mint. Yeah. >> I don't like mint ice cream, but I like mint in a gum or or tooth care.
3:33 >> Yeah. >> You like You don't like mint in your fur? >> Not really, but I put it in >> mixed with other ████ >> Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. A little mint leaf. >> Okay. What's What did you say your thing was? >> Working out. >> It never gets easier. >> That's relatable. Yeah. >> Because you challenge yourself to make it harder, but then if you stop, you come back. >> Yeah. >> And then you got to redo it all over again. Yeah. >> And and you're older. >> Yeah. >> But >> the feeling is good after it's done. >> Yeah. The feeling of accomplishment is nice, although rare. >> Yeah. >> You You got something? You look like you're thinking pretty hard. >> Oh, sorry. No, I was just thinking about I was just trying to think about never gets easier. But you But you don't like it. Or do you like you never But how what's the most consistent that you've gone? >> But I mean there'll be there'll be times
4:24 where I go every day. Okay. >> There'll be times where I do something like twice a day like when I was really really like into it. >> Yeah. >> But that's more like my friends are going. >> Okay. >> So they're like >> you just go for the hang. >> We're hanging so might as well work out or do an act physical activity. It might not just be the gym. It might be like okay after this we're going to do kicks at the park or like after this we're going to go hike or whatever. So there's a lot of physical activity >> and the physical activity doesn't get easier. >> Yeah. >> Kicks at the park sounds pretty fun. >> It doesn't. Yeah. >> Like it's maybe it gets a little easier cuz you get better at it. >> Yeah. >> But I don't think the word easy and work out ever fits together. >> That's true. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> If it's getting too easy, you're probably not >> right. That's that's that's the thing. Yeah. >> Okay. What about for you, Bart? I think for me it's always the the mental
5:16 feeling before something. >> And I think the everything I do for long enough ends up feeling easier. The mental hump of it. >> Um except for hanging out with my mom. >> That that's the one thing >> I always have to like >> I have to gear up for it. I have to get myself in the mental space. But like even stuff I hate doing like let's say laundry or whatever I think if I get a routine going a system going I do it regularly >> then the amount I have to like take a deep breath gets smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller and then it becomes part of me and then now it's like even as boring as brushing my teeth is I just know I have to do it so I just do it. So it's like it's like it's like no speed bump >> but everything in the beginning always feels like it's like a dunk before you go. >> When your mom sends you videos to watch do you watch them beginning to end?
6:07 >> ████ no. I don't even watch it. I already just >> ████ ████ Like ████ funue videos like whatever. Like the minute I even see a text from my mom >> out of 10 videos, how many is fun? >> It's all ████ What if she sent you uh what if she sent you the the sexual kung fu guy? >> What if she sent you? >> Yeah. What if she's been sending you gold and you have no idea? So it could have been great content. So this is the last video she sent me. I don't even know what this is. is ████ Jack Maw. >> It's literally Jack Maw. >> Jack Maw. >> And then there's this ████ fune video and I wrote, "Sorry, I don't understand." >> And then let's say, >> "You didn't even try. >> I don't even try." >> Oh my god. >> I know it's ████ ████ >> It's just bad thumbnail. Maybe the video is >> Yeah, bad marketing manager.
7:00 >> It just looks like Chinese foot medicine or something. And then this is how my doctor chose how my mom texts which is like which is like ████ ████ >> is number one whatever number two everything is a ████ listing >> every Buzzfeed article everything is a list eight way to kill your labor >> there's like health facts and stuff >> wait that's very organized though you're organized too >> like nine ways to be a good son number one contact mommy >> number two contact mommy >> sends me this I don't I don't know what the hell this is. Probably some Chinese or Taiwanese military. What? >> I don't know what the hell that is. >> She's trying to connect with you cuz she knows your military. So they're like, "Hey, look at Taiwan. Look at a rocket. You like rockets, son?" >> No, it's probably like, "Oh, watch out. The economy or the world's over." >> Oh, she's buying into some propag,
7:53 oh look, war going to stop. Maybe your Bitcoin not so safe. Like that kind of ████ dude. Oh my god. Look at this. Look at this. >> A ████ scroll is what that is. >> What does that mean? >> I've never seen anybody write Chinese calligraphy like a scroll on I'll try to read it and then you try to translate in English. >> Okay. >> Uh I don't like the blacks and you shouldn't either. NO. OKAY. WAIT. NO. NO. I know that one. >> Have you heard that one? >> I know. I have often. Often. So that And but that one
8:43 >> I don't like. >> I DON'T LIKE A BLACK. >> YEAH. THAT WAS NUMBER ONE. >> She started off kind of hard. >> Jesus. >> Okay. No, that one I listen to all the time. That one. >> What is it? But it's crazy that she said that too. Maybe it's just like she copy and paste something because she said um no way. She's like if you eat ████ like if you like just grind it out. >> It's a common proverb. >> Yeah. It's a common you you'll be great. So make sure you grind is >> I don't know why she wanted to send me that on a Saturday at 2:30 p.m. And then your mom be doing like horosy quotes just randomly >> like ████ grind now sleep later. >> She's trying to motivate your ass now. >> What's the second one? The second one is uh it doesn't even make sense which is like the Marine Corps >> and then
9:35 something for some something ten you know what those things are. So these are like these like um you know those monastery monk Buddhist for a day camps. >> I don't know why she lists that. Uh, wait. I think I think my mom might have been using voice memo. She's translating. There's a lot of errors. So, there's that. And then then she talks about ████ like, see, >> what does that one mean? >> Um, I think she's talking about So, one thing that's always plagues my mom is uh whether or not her parents went to heaven. ████ 12 fortune tellers confirmed that they went to heaven. >> She's still like, "I'm not sure. >> I'm not sure. Maybe maybe I still got to go do more." >> A ball of anxiety. >> Yeah. So maybe I got to do some more. And then so I think what she was saying
10:25 is like, "Oh yeah, all the work that we used to do at the monastery in the Buddhist temple." I think it did work. >> So in her belief system, >> but that's right after you got to eat ████ so you could be more successful. >> You got to eat ████ >> On a ████ 2:30 on a Saturday, she sent me that ████ >> in the belief. Uh there's something she can do in her life to determine whether or not her parents end up in heaven now. >> Yes. I guess like if they're at a certain level, you can get booster points by doing some other thing and then you send those booster points back. >> Sending like meal tickets to jail. >> Yeah. >> I learned about um hellotes. Have you heard of hell notes? >> No. >> Like I saw my Chinese friends burn like fake money. I thought it was so cool. And then so I was like, "What do you do that for? It's for my ancestors to use in hell. But the hell note like heaven we do that. >> But they called hell notes though.
11:16 >> Oh, I see. But yeah, but we do that. It's very common sell when I was like in second grade or some ████ I was like, can I have that monopoly money? And they gave me some. And I thought I was so rich and I'm like when I go to when I go in the afterlife, I can use this. >> Oh, you were burning it for yourself. >> I don't know what I was thinking. I was in second grade. >> You you know, you could use u you you could use they burn houses, too, so that they could have in a ████ house. >> Yeah, like but they have a toy HOUSE YOU BUY. >> OH, >> IMAGINE SITTING UP. >> What the ████ >> But they live it out there. They live. Trust me. This one. >> All right. One more one more thing from your mom's list for Jason to translate. >> This is my mom at the on vacation. >> That's nice. That's nicer than getting like a a health video.
12:07 >> Stuff like this. I'm like, cool. Now you're being a human being. I like that. >> Yeah. >> Because my mom like when she's by herself and ████ she's pretty happy, right? >> Cute, >> right? Like she's happy. >> And then so I'm like, "Cool. This is Yeah. This is this is when I can connect with you and and be cool." Not when you're like >> like ████ like this, dude. This is ████ so sad. >> She set a whole ████ dinner table for empty ancestors to eat at. >> Is that something you do though normally >> with my mom? Yeah. She does crazy ████ like this all the time. >> Like a Buddhist belief. Yeah, people do do that though. >> Yeah, but yeah. >> Oh, okay. >> She's all like, "Look at it's your grandma, your grandma, your auntie, your uncle." And you're like, "I don't see anybody." >> ████ like six bowls of rice out and ████ a whole platter so people could eat, but really it's like the flies coming.
12:59 I'm like, "Dude, the ████ >> I'm going to ask Gio to start sending you that ████ when you're gone. I want a normal relationship, you know, not ████ ████ >> Yeah, I can see why that doesn't get easier. >> Dining table.
