We're starting with Sterling eating cookies not being in the matrix with double doubles sound.
Previously experience
was horrible.
Stirling 2:46
It wasn't actually like technical difficulties, but we created a situation like multiple timelines overlapping Yeah, it was. It was a little trippy. It was a nice little feedback loop.
Hillary 3:01
Now you know what it's like to have visual and audio close. Okay,
Stirling 3:07
I'm like trying to figure out this microphone came with a mic stand. But I couldn't exactly figure out how to use it because either it needs another piece or I just ran out of attention for that task. Got it? I mean, yeah, like 37 mason jars in all the rooms of my house. Totally. But I'm not sure what to do with it. I mean, use the box. In mason jars are like my answer for all. Yeah, I mean, I don't disagree with you. I just would need like the next step. I'll just hold it. I'll just be I'll just be like, stand. Okay, great. Perfect. Hi Ellery. I love you. You're rolling everything out with you all week, because I've been listening to the first episode of our podcast and editing it so like, I've heard you every day this week. I know it's been a week for you. But mine we've been hanging out every day.
Hillary 4:18
So I've been hanging out with you every day. I'm like the cosmic realm anyway. It's same same but different.
Stirling 4:26
Names same but different. I want to put that on a T shirt to the whole t shirt collection. How do you feel about that? Let's make close. Oh, for sure I have. I have a sketchbook full of designs and I'm sure you have more than one sketchbook full of designs but I really would love to do that. So yes, okay.
We should probably make them like the self fulfilling print on demand, like or downloadable design kind and not something that we actually Have to mail to people because I am abysmal at actually mailing things to people.
Hillary 5:08
It takes so much time I do it with my art prints. And I'm like, this is all of the time.
Stirling 5:15
Yeah, like maybe just don't do that, like maybe just sell your art of digital downloads, and never ever ever have to deal with package fulfillment. Also, adult coloring books, that's a thing. Oh, yeah, have like scans or pictures of your line drawings before you fill them in so beautifully and your amazing artwork that you make that no one's listening to the podcast can see because this is an audio format. But in case you didn't know Hillary makes really pretty things with like, physical medium, like, I don't know, watercolors. What do you use?
Hillary 5:51
Yeah, watercolors and oils. And yes, I should do more of that. And I'm super down to do more of that great idea. And you'll be my manager.
Stirling 6:01
I'm really good at ideas. Yeah, that's my strong suit. I have all the ideas that are f*****g good ones. Someone do something with one, take them and fulfill them. Right. I'll give you 10 for one deal, great ideas.
Hillary 6:21
Totally. Okay, so today is Friday. It doesn't really matter because this will exist for forever and eternity. But in case you're wondering when this recording was made, it was happening on a Friday.
Stirling 6:36
Yeah, Friday, that's Freitas day. We're both hella Germanic. So that means something in the ancestral lineage right there. Although you know what's really interesting, so I'm talking about Freya, who is the goddess of beauty she's like really similar to Aphrodite, in Norse Pantheon. So like Northern Europe region, they conquered a lot of people. So she has been a lot of great places. But the strange thing is even though Freya is part of the integral, core Pantheon and like Norse and Germanic lore, and has a lot of parallels to Aphrodite, and Venus, etc. In the Norse Pantheon, it's actually acknowledged that Freya was a goddess that came from somewhere else and all the Norse god, the acier liked her so much. And she was so beautiful, and she was the one in charge of the golden apples that like gave youth and beauty and vague pseudo immortality to the gods because they weren't actually immortal, but they could eat free as golden apples and sort of be immortal, that they kept her there like you can be part of our Pantheon even though you come from somewhere else that's so long ago that no one really knows where that's from. Like even in the folklore they specifically say, we took this goddess from some other culture and put her in our array of goddesses because she's that dad.
When I heard that much like i think you know, we don't care where you came from girl you're pretty comfortable with
pink we wear pink on Wednesdays we wear pink. And Fridays phrase day, I mean, some people might argue and say it's phrase day and that's her twin. But please, Friday's phrase day, Come at me, bro, come at me.
Hillary 8:22
Oh, man, your your head full of knowledge is quite something. That's another trait of autism and girls. info dump my special interest. Doesn't matter if no one else can read their facial cues anyway. There was a little lag in that that sounded those slightly insane. But I don't know if that was because there was a lag.
Let's be honest.
Yes,
Stirling 8:57
I have much much of the informations so good about very particular things than being one of those things. Perfect.
Hillary 9:09
Okay, speaking of all of the things and the information, what do you want to do first you want to do like the interest outras and talking about like our stories, or like and follow that train? Or do you want to do like a little clip on the dreams and things like that first? What do you want to do first?
I don't care.
Unknown Speaker 9:39
Whatever you want to do first,
Hillary 9:42
let's
let's like do it. Let's talk about our backgrounds. And then I think that'll like warm us up and then we'll do intros and outros. Let's do it so that we like then we can kind of like get the energy flowing just like you were talking about. I like going into your background about all of your things.
Unknown Speaker 10:06
Okay, Tag, you're it, you go first. Okay, let's Ah, he was asking, let's ask each other questions. Like, why don't we do that? So, you want to ask me questions first, or you want me to ask you? Um, wait, what we have to pause again, because I have to pee again because I drink all the way.
Stirling 10:35
