    37: Brooke and Kelsey Make a Podcast (ft. Kelsey Kreppel)

    enOctober 06, 2022

    Podcast Summary

    • Discussion on a popular streamer revealing his face and setting boundariesTransparency is important, but setting boundaries and practicing self-care are equally crucial.

      The line between mainstream pop culture and personal life can be blurred, especially in the age of social media. During a recent podcast, the hosts discussed the revelation of a popular streamer's decision to reveal his face to the public. While acknowledging the significance of the news, they also reflected on the implications of constantly engaging with such news and the importance of setting boundaries. Additionally, one of the hosts shared her personal experience with coffee and its impact on her energy levels, leading to a conversation about how individuals with autism may be affected differently. Through this conversation, the hosts emphasized the importance of understanding and accommodating individual differences. Overall, the podcast highlighted the importance of being transparent while also recognizing the need for balance and self-care.

    • Understanding individual differences in sleep and work schedulesRespecting individual differences in sleep patterns and work schedules can lead to improved productivity and well-being.

      Our productivity and energy levels can be influenced by various factors, including our sleep patterns and mental health. The discussion revealed that some people, despite not having autism, might prefer longer rest periods and feel more energized after taking extended naps. It was suggested that this could be due to exhaustion from the day or an anxiety-related issue. Some people may struggle with early work schedules and find that their performance improves when they have more time to prepare. Ultimately, it's essential to understand and respect individual differences and find ways to accommodate various working styles to ensure optimal productivity and well-being.

    • Unexpected emotions at a birthday partyDuring personal celebrations, be mindful of others' emotions and needs, as small incidents can have a big impact.

      Even during joyous occasions like a birthday party, there can be unexpected and emotional situations that require sensitivity and empathy. During a podcast discussion about cookies and a shared birthday party experience, the host shared an incident where she saw a friend, Tristan, in tears in the hallway but chose to focus on her own birthday celebration instead. Tristan was distraught because he was denied entry into the girls' bathroom and was subsequently told he couldn't cry in other areas of the party. The bathroom attendant's insistence on enforcing rules led to Tristan's inconsolable tears, and the host felt badly about her initial reaction to ignore him. This incident serves as a reminder that it's important to be aware of others' emotions and needs, even during personal celebrations.

    • Misunderstandings and Exclusions in Social SituationsEmpathy and understanding can lead to meaningful connections and resolutions in seemingly challenging social situations

      Even seemingly minor interactions can lead to significant emotional responses, especially when issues of identity and acceptance are involved. Tristan's experience in the bathroom at a party, where he was misunderstood and excluded, ultimately led to a heartfelt conversation and resolution. However, Kels' own experience of the night, marked by her trust in the people around her and her own coping mechanisms, also showcases the importance of support and self-care in navigating challenging situations. Despite the unexpected events, both women found solace and connection in their shared experiences, reminding us that empathy and understanding can go a long way in creating positive and memorable moments.

    • Unexpected experiences can evoke complex emotionsPeople's reactions to unexpected situations can range from disgust to intimacy, highlighting the complexity of human emotions

      People's reactions to unexpected situations can vary greatly. In the shared story, a woman experienced an unusual moment when another man cleaned her face with his saliva in front of her fiancé. While she initially tried to joke about it, she later felt ambivalent about the incident. Some people might have found it disgusting, while others could have seen it as an intimate moment. The woman acknowledged that her response fell somewhere in between, neither fully disgusted nor falling in love. The conversation also touched on astrological signs and the importance of acknowledging others' birthdays to make them feel loved. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the complexity of human emotions and how they can be influenced by unexpected experiences.

    • Astrology and Personal ExperiencesAstrology can influence self-perception and relationships, but personal experiences shape our understanding of ourselves and others

      Astrological signs can influence how we perceive ourselves and our relationships with others. The speaker, who identifies as a Cancer, shares her experiences of getting along well with Cancers but having complicated relationships with Cancer men. She also reveals her past career as a preschool teacher and shares a humorous, albeit slightly controversial, story about a difficult co-teacher named April. Despite the speaker's acknowledgement of the limitations of astrology and her own limited knowledge of Geminis, she finds it intriguing and enjoys exploring the connections between signs and personalities. The preschool story adds an unexpected element to the conversation, showcasing the speaker's resilience and sense of humor in the face of challenging situations. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of self-discovery and the role that astrology and personal experiences can play in shaping our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

    • April's Absence and MisunderstandingsThe start of the school year brought uncertainty as teacher April was absent for two weeks due to a supposed honeymoon, but upon meeting her, it was revealed she hadn't married. Initial interactions were filled with misunderstandings, but the speaker remained curious to learn more.

      During the first crucial two weeks of the school year, teacher April would be absent due to her honeymoon. This was a significant concern for the speaker as it meant she would miss the important transition period for the students. Despite her absence, the speaker was unable to find out much about her from the other teachers. When they finally met, it was revealed that she had not gotten married and there had been no wedding or honeymoon. The first interaction between teacher April and a student, Robert, involved a misunderstanding over a lunchbox. Despite these initial misunderstandings, the speaker remained curious and looked forward to getting to know teacher April better. The legality of the teacher-student ratio was also discussed, with the speaker mentioning that there had been a body present in the classroom for legal purposes, but it could have been anyone. Overall, the speaker was navigating the start of the school year with a mix of curiosity and uncertainty.

    • Toxic learning environment caused by abusive teacherAddressing teacher misconduct promptly and effectively is crucial for a safe and nurturing learning environment, involving ongoing support and communication between teachers, administrators, and parents.

      The presence of an abusive and unprofessional teacher, despite complaints and concerns from other teachers and parents, can create a toxic learning environment for children. The discussion reveals that teacher April's behavior towards her students was physically and emotionally intimidating, leading to fear and anxiety among the children. The teachers' attempts to address the situation by documenting complaints and involving higher authorities were met with resistance and continued employment of the teacher. This case highlights the importance of addressing teacher misconduct promptly and effectively to ensure a safe and nurturing learning environment for students. Additionally, the situation underscores the need for ongoing support and communication between teachers, administrators, and parents to foster a collaborative and productive educational community.

    • A teacher's unusual behavior after her husband's death reveals a shocking truthSuspected criminal activities can hide behind seemingly normal behavior, impacting those around us unexpectedly

      Sometimes the truth behind unusual situations can be shocking and complex. In this case, a teacher's seemingly casual behavior after learning of her husband's death led the speaker to suspect something was off. Upon investigating, they discovered he had a criminal past and had stolen $200,000 before disappearing. The teacher had married someone else and the wedding may have been a way to escape legal trouble. The speaker was left to handle various school duties alone after the teacher was fired for physically harming a student. Despite the chaos, the teacher seemed unaffected by her husband's death, possibly due to her involvement in criminal activities. This situation highlights how the truth can be more complicated than it initially appears and how it can impact those around us.

    • Overcoming challenges in first year of teachingDespite unexpected difficulties, both individuals remained committed to their students and found joy in their experiences, adapting to new situations and discovering creative teaching methods.

      Despite the challenges and difficulties faced during their first year of teaching, both individuals remained committed to their students and found joy in their experiences. They shared stories of unexpected changes, unsupportive colleagues, and even physical altercations, but emphasized that the children were always the reason they continued to teach. One individual even found a love for teaching younger children when their original partner teacher quit on the first day. Through these experiences, they learned to adapt and find positivity in unexpected situations. Additionally, they introduced the concept of using pop culture fidgets during circle time as a fun and engaging way to discuss current events with their students.

    • Comparing BeReal and TikTok preferencesWhile TikTok offers a larger user base and more content, BeReal is cherished for its ability to connect users with genuine connections.

      During the conversation, Conner and the speaker discussed their preferences for different social media platforms, specifically comparing BeReal and TikTok. They agreed that while TikTok has a larger user base and more content, BeReal holds a special place as it connects users with people they genuinely know. The conversation also touched upon the blurring lines between various apps and the loss of favorite SNL cast members. Despite the loss, they appreciated the performances of Miles Teller on BeReal and SNL's season premiere. The speaker expressed their dislike for ASMR and shared an interest in a specific TikTok user's content. Overall, the conversation showcased a shared appreciation for authentic connections and the entertainment value of various media platforms.

    • Personal experiences and perceptions influence opinionsPeople's interactions and experiences with celebrities or figures can greatly impact their opinions, while personal experiences with animals can also lead to memorable moments or challenges.

      People's personal experiences and perceptions can greatly influence their opinions about celebrities or pop culture figures. During a conversation, one person shared their disinterest in Tom Cruise due to his unpleasant personality, while another spoke fondly of their encounter with Benny Drama (a comedian) and how it turned out to be an embarrassing experience. The discussion also touched upon the topic of Chili, a cat who went through a phase of being less affectionate, and how the owner had to deal with a situation where one of the cats got entangled in a bag. In short, personal experiences and interactions can shape our perspectives and memories of people and events in significant ways.

    • Exploring the World of Pets: Curiosity and ApprehensionThe speaker expresses her curiosity and apprehension towards owning pets, sharing her experiences with bunnies and cats, and expressing her fear and lack of knowledge about cats. She also reflects on her recent experiences with dating apps and finds comfort in watching Ben Stiller movies.

      The speaker expresses her curiosity and apprehension towards owning pets, particularly a chinchilla and a cat, as she has limited experience with them. She shares her encounters with free-roaming bunnies and cats, and her attempts to interact with them have led to mixed results. She also expresses her fear and lack of knowledge about cats, having never owned one before. The speaker also mentions her recent experience with dating apps, expressing frustration and confusion about the users she encounters. She finds solace in watching Ben Stiller movies during a weekend spent resting due to a stomach bug. Overall, the conversation highlights the speaker's desire for companionship, whether it be through pets or romantic relationships, but also her hesitance and uncertainty in navigating these areas of her life.

    • A woman's unconventional approach to finding a connectionUnexpected interactions can lead to meaningful connections, and genuine authenticity and personal compatibility are essential in relationships.

      Sometimes, in the quest for finding a connection, we can encounter unexpected interactions and make unconventional decisions. In this case, a woman went on a dating app with the intention of finding a Ben Stiller lookalike, but instead found three men who caught her attention. She engaged with them, and based on their interactions, made a decision to "marry, fuck, kill" between the three. The decision was influenced by their authenticity and personal connection, as well as their unique quirks. One man asked about toothpaste brands, another complimented her shy smile, and the third expressed attraction. While some may find this approach unconventional, it highlights the importance of genuine connection and personal compatibility in relationships. Additionally, the woman's willingness to engage with these men and consider their perspectives, even if they were unconventional, shows a level of openness and curiosity that can lead to unexpected and meaningful connections.

    • Plans and Nerves for an Upcoming PerformanceThe speakers discuss their upcoming performance, mentioning a nerve-wracking piece with quick notes and a friend they'll call for support. They also share an embarrassing moment from a past church performance.

      The speakers in this conversation are discussing their plans for an upcoming performance and expressing their nerves about it. They mention a specific piece they will play, which includes quick notes, and joke about potential mistakes. They also mention a friend they will call during the performance and invite viewers to watch the full episode on TMGstudios.tv. Additionally, there is a reference to an embarrassing moment from a past church performance. Overall, the conversation revolves around their upcoming performance and the anticipation and nerves that come with it.

    On episode 168, we welcome Chuck Wisner to discuss the importance of conscious conversations in building deeper connections and understanding between people, the role of active listening in conscious conversations, how it can transform our relationships and interactions, strategies for cultivating empathy and compassion during conversations, why these qualities are essential for effective communication, how ego and internal storytelling disrupt relationships, how practicing mindfulness can improve our ability to communicate with others, the ways in which conscious conversations can be used to address difficult topics, examples of conscious conversations in action, creativity from collaboration and why it shouldn’t matter who gets credit, practical tips and exercises for developing the skills and habits needed for conscious conversations, how readers can apply these strategies in their daily lives, and what Chuck learned from meeting the Dalai Lama.

    Chuck Wisner is president of Wisner Consulting. His client list includes companies such as Google, Rivian, Apple, Tesla, Harvard Business School, Ford, and Chrysler. Wisner was a senior affiliated mediator with the Harvard Mediation Program and was among the first to be certified through the Mastering the Art of Professional Coaching program at the Newfield Institute. He was also a specialist in organizational learning and leadership as an affiliate with MIT’s Center for Organizational Learning. His new book, available now, is called The Art of Conscious Conversations: Transforming How We Talk, Listen, and Interact.

    Brought to you by Eight Sleep’s Pod Cover sleeping solution for dynamic cooling and heating; Cometeer delicious hyper-fresh, flash-frozen coffee; and AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement.

    Hello, boys and girls, ladies and germs. This is Tim Ferriss. Welcome to another episode of The Tim Ferriss Show, where it is usually my job to sit down with world-class performers of all different types to tease out the habits, routines, favorite books, and so on that you can apply and test in your own life. 

    This time, we have a slightly different format. I’m the guest, and you asked the questions. 

    I recently sat down with subscribers to my email newsletter for a fun and live Q&A on YouTube.

    To join these exclusive Q&A sessions in the future, it’s simple. Just sign up at tim.blog/friday

    Every Friday, you will receive my free 5-Bullet Friday newsletter—a short email of five bullet points. It’s one of the most popular newsletters in the world.

    Each newsletter describes the five coolest things I’ve found or explored that week, often including books, gadgets, tech workarounds, tricks from experts, strange experiments, and weird stuff from all over the world. My subscribers have seen many, many things at the edges before they’ve gone mainstream. 

    In this episode, I answer questions on resurrecting “forgotten” languages, dog training, writer’s block, reducing alcohol intake, AI companions, training the “good enough” muscle, low-back pain, the importance of weight training and muscle mass, travel recommendations for Japan, managing fear of death and the descent to death, breaking negative self-talk, and much, much more. 

    Please enjoy!
