Hello and welcome back to so you got a lifestyle for your hosts for Rita and Lisa to lifestyle undergrad students trying to navigate our future careers. This is Episode 15 the half birthday extravaganza are you doing today, Lisa? I'm doing good. I have a bit of a life update. So I've recently been looking a little more into potential things for what to do after undergrad and for various financial reasons. I'm now considering Oh, maybe it wouldn't actually be too bad to do a Master's since you know with iPads and everything. It's not too too different from just working the lab assistant job after undergrad because it doesn't pay much. And one thing I have wanted to do and have thought about doing is living in Vancouver for a couple years just because I love the mountains and it's just so beautiful there and warmer. I was thinking the weather might be nicer for me, it's hard to tell because it rains a lot. So yeah, anyways, I'm considering they have like a cancer programme there where it's just like a research Master's, but it's a bit more like just cancer focus, which I think is kind of cool. And so because of this, I was thinking, Okay, if I'm applying for this programme, like this fall, I think I want to visit Vancouver maybe just one time before I do that, I mean, it's not strictly necessary. Like it's just a couple of years, I'd be down to go without visiting first, but if possible, maybe. And so I was talking to my parents and we were thinking maybe the coming reading week, so which would be like this October 2021 might do a little trip there. And so you know, like I got excited about it. I know I started like looking into things I already told you a little bit about this, but didn't go into enough detail. And so I'm gonna tell you about these two tourist attractions that I found in Vancouver. Okay. Okay, so the first one is called capilano Suspension Bridge Park, and it's like this park that has a suspension bridge, but they also have like this thing called a treetops adventure. And it's not what you think it is. It's not that thing where they put you on like a chair and the zip you across the zip line. It's not that well, I'll just let them describe it to you. Okay, she talks adventure is one of the most popular experiences at capilano Suspension Bridge Park and is the first venue of its kind in North America offers a squirrel's I view of a thriving coastal floor. So it's essentially just kind of a jungle gym made like, you know, those YouTube videos where people make mazes for their hamsters. Yeah. It's kind of like that for humans. And it's completely true. Like it really is a squirrels I

Unknown Speaker

02:18

view like, it's

Lisa Shen

02:18

not a bird's eye view. They're very honest. It's kind of like, if you imagine a tree as being this is Vancouver. And it's like forests are kind of old. So they're, they're pretty tall. You're about like mid height of the tree. So very, very appropriate for a squirrel. And yeah, basically, that line alone is good to make me go there, though. It's not very accessible. And I don't know if I can really do it. But I'm going to go there and we're going to see what happens whatever podcast episode during that time, the squirrel the week is you. I was actually thinking one of the questions that we were going to ask today could be who is more like a squirrel? But I thought that that would be way too obvious of an answer. Yeah, definitely. And the second thing that caught my eye was this Sea to Sky gondola thing. So you know, it's one of those things where you take a gondola ride up a pretty tall mountain, and I was looking through their prices, right? If you scroll down, they have the you know, like adult price, senior price child price, but then I saw that they also have this thing that's called Buster the dog. Okay. And then in parentheses, it said, in all caps ride down only and I was like, what, what? Also, how does it get up? Exactly, exactly. I was like, Okay, and so I navigated through their website and found more information about this whole buster, the dog situation, and he has like all these rules where, okay, it's like you can take your dog up, but then once you get to the top, you have to put them into this special doggy playpen at the top of the mountain. Because for some reason, apparently, like they're not okay with you just having your dog on a leash. So like, honestly, if I go to this gondola, I'm going to spend like a solid 10 minutes just interacting with the dogs. Yeah, I just want to know like, what catastrophes have happened in the past. We must pin up the dog. Do you want to know though can be pretty sad.

Unknown Speaker

04:14

Oh, no, that's so true. Oh

Unknown Speaker

04:16

my goodness.

Lisa Shen

04:18

What if it's named after Buster prepared? Oh, no. Oh, no. If I ever go there, I'm gonna ask them minimum wage employee. Hey, like, do you know the story? And they're gonna be like, just be quiet and look at the view. But yeah, I'm excited to go to those places. Yeah, that sounds super exciting. Yeah, COVID permitting. How are you doing? I'm doing pretty good. I had duty last night. So I'm a little bit sleepy right now. But and by the way, when free This is duty, it's for fellow duty. Oh, yeah. Like you can't just say that. Like Who are you Batman? Oh, yeah, don't mind me. I was just like being a vigilante around Montreal. Actually, I was on like a Call with some friends last night on duty and duty for some reason with that group of friends refers to like biological duty as in taken on. Yeah, so when I whenever I say the word duty to them they're like ha she said duty. Ladies and gentlemen, the responsible upper your floor fellows in McGill University. No one like them are prestigious. Yeah, but one exciting thing that did happen actually just an hour ago is that we signed a sublease agreement for this. Oh my god, that's so exciting. So sad. It's not a 12 month. I've been I've been trying to convince Frieda to sign a 12 month lease and live in Montreal for a year. Yeah, to be clear, because she will potentially Yeah. Four years of me living here and her not visiting. Yes. It's not just because I want her to like stay in Montreal for another year. And like away from me. She actually wants me further permanently. Yeah, but yeah, it's really nice. The people who are subletting to us Let it off for really cheap, which was surprising. Yeah, it's a really nice place. And it has a balcony, which is very nice. Nice view. Yeah. As a kid, I was always like, oh, like, I want a balcony. Like I want a balcony. And I remember when we bought our house that we live in right now, my parents, you know, like to I don't think they were really going to consider my opinion. But they were like, Lisa, what do you what do you want? And I was like, I would really like a porch. Because I didn't know that there was different words for like a porch. Oh, balconies. I was five. I thought a balcony was called a porch. On a porch. I want a porch. And they're like, okay, she like really wants a porch. I don't know if I told them balcony if it would have like, changed their mind. Like bought the house. And I was like, Oh, just have a balcony. Well, I guess like I thought before?

Unknown Speaker

06:49

Yeah.

Lisa Shen

06:51

Yeah, very exciting. Yeah, one of the nice things about it is that there's a connected depth to the main floor. And a depth is a depth enduro for people who don't live in Montreal. It's basically like a convenience store, except a little more. And the thing is with this stuff is that it has pretty much everything you could need to buy from a grocery store at slightly elevated prices, which is really bad because I was talking to you earlier about how it's already bad that there's vending machines in the building I live in now because I keep buying late night snacks. And so now a dub with everything I could want. That sounds like the dream honestly. Like that's what that's worth the price of a couple of dollars. I'll take it. Yeah, I think one of the student residences at UBC Not that I've been stalking them like crazy. Also has that and if I got that residence, that would be really cool. Yeah. Also, when you were telling me about this UBC Vancouver stuff. Yes. It wasn't like you were like, I'm considering moving to Vancouver. It was like I already figured out what I'm doing in the next two years in Vancouver. I've already lived there. I've already bought my plane ticket. I have plans for whale watching in like November. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, so pretty. But yeah, I'm excited. You You found a place yeah, I'm excited to already fried out what's the squirrel of the week. The squirrel of this week is bagel squirrel. This actually comes from one of my co workers who's been doing like kind of social media programming for his for fellow students. So one of his things is to post a really cute animal on Oh, that's so nice. And then this week he is visiting his partner in Ottawa. And this is like a squirrel that lives near her. Oh, Otto a squirrel. Yeah. Yeah, and basically the squirrel apparently leaves bagels for her on the fire escape. Which is adorable. Wait, but like specifically bagels and not other baked goods. It says specifically bagel. That's so weird. Like, do you think there's like a Tim Hortons like near her house that just tosses all the bagels out back? That's how this girl is getting these bagels. So why is the squirrel sharing? Haha, maybe the Ottawa squirrels are just nicer. Yeah, maybe Yeah. The further north you go the more Canadian they get. Yeah, that's really cute. Yeah, it's also kind of funny because when whenever we do these kind of floor, follow promo things in our respective Facebook groups or on social media. It's usually all the other floor fellows who are like, Oh my god, so cute. And all that stuff. I would definitely be that student who's just they're not engaging. Unless it's a squirrel, then it might be like, Oh, yeah, so it's just all the other four fellows hyping each other. That's very cute. I'm glad you're at your job consists of this. This podcast is sponsored by kicking back alpaca ranch chicken back. alpaca Ranch is an alpaca farm. You're calling wood Ontario that's run by Carolyn and Doug Lillian. They were Beautiful alpacas offer close up alpaca tours and create wonderful products from alpaca fibre. At the moment other tours are in small groups and lasts between 45 and 90 minutes. During this time, you'll get the chance to pet the alpacas feed them treats and take lots of photos. You even get to learn all sorts of interesting facts about the species like why they don't like it when you touch their heads. Plus, after the tour, you get to visit their store and check out some cute alpaca products. I was surprised to see the range of items they offer including socks, dryer balls and get this alpaca plushies made using real alpaca fibre. I myself have visited their ranch this past summer. My favourite part of my tour was without a doubt seeing all the cute baby alpacas who are also known as Korea's they're just so so adorable. My favourite Korea was pipsqueak who is a small fluffy white alpaca. But lately I think I'm taking a real liking to Paisley who is a young alpaca that looks like she always has a tiny smile on her face. It's especially fun getting to feed them treats the feeling of their mouths, nibbling against your palms is just such a delight. kicking back alpaca Ranch is open year round and are currently following all government protocols regarding COVID-19 you can book a tour at WWW dot alpaca tours.ca. Their alpaca products are also available for purchase online at www dot laslett. com that's lslyn.com or at the link in the show notes. You can also follow him on social media at the links in the show notes for cute alpaca photos, but most importantly, book a tour and pay those cute alpacas a visit. So what are we doing today, Lisa? Well, today in honour of our podcasts half birthday, whoo,

Lisa Shen

11:44

we're going to be playing a game called How well do you know your co host? That's right, we're switching it up. So since this is the 15th episode, we're going to be at the same time three to one answering a total of 15 questions about each other. And you know, like if you're thinking wow, like, well, that'd be super chaotic, especially in audio format. The answer is yes, we hope you enjoy. Alright, so how this is going to work is that me and Frieda are going to alternate between asking questions from this list that we have over here. And we're going to count down three to one and then we're going to answer at the same time, we'll see if we have the same answer. And if not, maybe we'll have a little fight about it. So we're gonna start with questions that are more related to podcasting content. So question number one is who is more likely to be late to a podcast meeting three to one photos? Okay, I have elaboration on this though, because I feel like I feel like you're way more likely to completely forget about a podcast meeting like I don't think I've ever completely forgotten and just been like napping. I feel like I'm almost more likely to be late. But when I'm late, it's like maybe like five to 10 minutes, but I feel like you're definitely more likely to be like catastrophic. Or just absent. Yeah, I think that's pretty fair. The problem is that usually we're not late at the same time. So there's always someone waiting. Yeah, like we're both late to the same thing.

Unknown Speaker

13:09

Yeah,

Lisa Shen

13:09

but I mean, it's been better. Yeah, I mean, we've talked about this before because in high school, I was absolutely crazy about being on time like I was so like, we're trying to brag about I used to be so on top of everything. And then I feel like over uni Frieda has been getting better at like scheduling and like being on time for things that I've gotten progressively more relaxed about it, like officially reached that point where we're like, in the middle, and I think we're like about to cross check. All right, so question number two is who eats more often during meetings? three to one, Lisa? Okay, here's the thing. What is eating me? Because even if it's a meal, I feel like it's you. But if it's like a snack 10 minutes before the guest is about to arrive? Definitely. I beg to differ. I think it's always I think I've eaten a meal maybe like once or twice. That's true. Now, okay, I accept, like the number of times that we've had a guest pop up and like their thing is shown in grey, but it seems like they're about to be fully in the room soon. And I have like a half of the bar in my mouth. It's just it's too many times you think I would learn Yeah, I think at the beginning I used to get like really nervous about like, we still not done her snack. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker

14:30

It's okay. I

Lisa Shen

14:31

think I was just chilled out since then.

Unknown Speaker

14:33

Yeah,

Lisa Shen

14:34

question number three who has done the most embarrassing thing while recording three to one Lisa. Okay, do you know that kind of bias when people take multiple choice quizzes are multiple choice studies and they this answer the same thing for everything. I feel like I'm having that kind of bias. Or maybe it's just the questions are asking like because I feel like the most embarrassing thing that like has happened is just you know, like some kind Have bodily function or some kind of bodily? Yeah. I was trying to spare them I think same bodily function sounds way worse. Okay, everyone, I just want to say fritas threshold for what is like too embarrassing to be included on the podcast is way less conservative than my guess. me. I'm like, okay, we like should talk about burping. I like dough on my employees to hear that for you to like, bring it all. I have no shame on the podcast at all. I'm just saying like people burn. That's a normal thing. Yeah, it's that is a thing. So yeah, like, that's probably the most embarrassing Actually, I don't know if this is the most embarrassing, but it is pretty funny about when you're telling dog rock about you're very flatter. And also you're taller. Why are you bringing it up again? Can you make it sound like I just decided that would be like a nice conversation topic. Like we were literally talking about peeing on nude beaches. I feel like it wasn't too much of a stretch. It was just funny that you decided to personalise in two years. Yeah, but like, have you met me? That's like a core part of my identity. Yeah. Yeah, but I think we generally just like fall like things fall over or just stumble over words. Lots of little embarrassing things I think happened. The other day, I went to unplug my humidifier and just randomly turn on the lamp. Because I like for context for this humidifier. It looks like like it's not it's bigger. It's just beside my lamp. Yeah, it's beside her lamp. I didn't even see it, though. I'm doing my own business. But she told me that she did. Okay, question number four is who's more likely to have a tech issue during a meeting? three to one? Yes. Yeah, that's

Unknown Speaker

16:52

fair.

Lisa Shen

16:53

The guess is a pretty fair answer. Yeah. But they're also allowed to have tech issues because, you know, they're, they're not supposed to. Yeah, I think we've had a huge range in the tech capabilities, or I guess that's definitely true. But I think that's just because there's a huge range of the tech capabilities of people including lifestyle undergrad, graduates, whatever. Yeah, yeah. But I feel like generally, you are more likely to have tech issues. Okay, here's the breakdown in my brain is that I think pre new computer, it was definitely me because it took so long to load. And then my computer cannot do multiple things at once. But now with new computer, I can beat Lisa to everything, which is very okay. The funny thing that is about that I want to say is I feel like for me, since I got my new, it's gotten worse for me. Yeah. The sound settings on windows are just buried under like five layers of clicking. A basic thing changing your input volume. Why was it so hard to find? Yeah, I find this kind of funny because before you got this new computer, you were kind of making fun of me for like not being able to find this sounds

Unknown Speaker

18:02

like this.

Unknown Speaker

18:04

I just couldn't.

Lisa Shen

18:07

I just couldn't conceive that like the 100 people who worked on like the Windows software all thought it was like a good idea. Or just like maybe one intern like put it there, and then no one bothered to check. Question number five, who comes up with more ridiculous business idea three to one, Lisa? Yeah. I think we both do come up with a decent amount of business ideas, but I feel like minor like this is a logical step to take. Like my ideas are all really reasonable. And I just feel like your ideas are just completely out there. No, it's not a bad thing. They're just creative. And it's good to have that.

Unknown Speaker

18:51

They're cute. Yeah, I

Lisa Shen

18:52

like them. Yeah, but minor just like here is a problem we're having this is a potential solution. You're like, let's do a squirrel. Yeah, let's let's mail physical postcards. $5 month patrons even though it's gonna cost us $1 it's all worth it. Okay, now moving on to the not podcast related questions. Question number six, who's more likely to lock themselves out of their house more than once? I feel like I need a minute to think about this. Because the fact that it says more than one is like tripping me up because like, what is it saying? Like, is it really saying like, who is less likely to learn from their mistakes? I feel like that might be me. three to one, Lisa. Okay, but here's something I've actually never locked myself out of my house. But also, I've never lived in a house where it was possible to get locked out. only ever lived in a dorm or in my family house where there's usually someone at home if I forget my key or something Yeah, I think this has also been the case with living at home is that we have a lot yeah, we have a lock that is just a code that nobody, please tell me more about your locks on your house before. But then also as a kid, I used to be very forgetful. And so as an adult, I'm like, ultra careful that I don't forget things. I feel like, because I've just had a history of like forgetting things everywhere. And so luckily, this apartment and my last apartment, I have not locked myself out once. That's good. I have this one thing whenever I'm out, or just in general, like not even when I'm out. But when I'm just like, at someone else at a place that does not my room or my home, right? I just I'm constantly misplacing my phone. Constantly. Like it's like, like you're like, Oh, yeah, like she forgets where it is like once or twice, like, no, it's like, I'll put it in my pocket. And then a minute later, I'll be like, Oh, wait, I need to check where we are. Then I'll be like, Where's my phone? This will happen like 10 to 20 times a day. Yeah, it's recent to like, I never had an issue with this prior to the pandemic. So there's a correlation or causation. Yeah, I also do that a lot. I just throw it on the bed, and then it gets mixed up in my sheets. Yeah. And someone starts calling you and you're like, crap, crap. Yeah, I feel like this question is just listen for you to reveal way too much about the security. Also on the theme of revealing way too much about our securities Oh, yes. Yes. In all my past places, I've always done the thing of phone wallet keys as I'm cutting out the door. Yes. The apartment that I'm in now has like a card as the key. So it's okay. I've had to like adjust to be like phone wallet. Well. But oh, but my brain hasn't fully adjusted. So it actually goes phone wallet. Keys. No, wait, well. Oh, my goodness. I want to make a poster that says that. Question number seven, who is more likely to adopt a cat 321 Lisa. Okay, but here's the thing, like I'm scared of cats. I think you're in general more likely to adopt an animal. But also, I thought it was funny that you specifically wrote cat because you wrote this question on the dog. Yeah, I'm actually allergic to cats, but I like them more than you do.

Unknown Speaker

22:27

I did not know your

Lisa Shen

22:28

Yeah. since forever, but I also really liked so I usually just said no sounding like a dude, why like

Unknown Speaker

22:42

so much.

Lisa Shen

22:45

Yeah, I mean, I couldn't put dog because I felt like that. Yeah, I also liked what you said that I'm more like likely to adopt an animal but like, meaning that I'm more likely to adopt anything that isn't a human. Like, I feel like you're you're more likely to adopt a human child at this stage in our life. Yeah. Yeah, you'd also probably do a better job of raising them also the cat to probably like, it's like the hero you need versus the hero. You deserve. The hero the cottony. I'm the hero they get. So enjoy this woman who's afraid of you? That's okay, that makes us both heroes. Hmm. Question number eight is who is most likely to laugh at the wrong moment, three to one vote. Why do you think it's you? I just feel like you have better understanding of social cues. I feel like you claim this but you're actually not bad at that at all. I feel like Yeah, but that's because like, I'm not bad at it when I interact with you, or with other people who are slightly strange, I guess. I think I noticed it more because I do the editing. So I have to, like hear any graffiti. Yeah. But the other thing is that I think I'm also likely to laugh at the wrong moment, because my computer used to be very laggy. And so tragic story. And then.

Unknown Speaker

24:12

Yeah.

Lisa Shen

24:14

That's so true. I mean, yeah, I guess there's two ways of interpreting this question. I know this one person through the poetry stuff that I do, and I Skyped them once to talk about some poetry things. And they have this this type of humour where they go so quick, between like funny things and sad things. Like whoa, wait, that was funny, but then also depression, but then like, oh, you're hilarious. But then when do I just like I'm scared to start laughing if they say something funny. I'm gonna keep laughing while they talk about something tragic. That's how I feel about watching patriot act on Netflix, where it's like the topics are super serious, but the jokes are really funny. I feel weird about Yeah, believe the difference there is that Hassan Minaj is not going to judge you. If you like. Question number nine who is most likely to be in a commercial? I feel like I'm just sensing a common theme among like all these answers.

Unknown Speaker

25:13

Okay.

Lisa Shen

25:14

321 Lisa? Yeah, I think Lisa, you know, has the personality for entertaining. Wow. I'm not. I feel like that was an insult. But I think you're, I think it also is a great podcast. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I mean, you basically just told me I have the personality that suits commercials, which means the personality to hold a Roomba and be like this thing change? Which I mean, like, honestly, I can see myself doing in real life, I think almost in a commercial for the ziplining place in Vancouver. Joe, do you think he would sponsor Oh my god, this is gonna be another alpaca mentioned on the podcast before but how you didn't you were wary about sponsoring an alpaca farm or vice versa being sponsored by an alpaca farm because they have a physical location. And I was like, Woody, I see no problem with. And then they almost I certainly sponsored an entire year, or something like that. Yeah. But I think yeah, I think you'd be excited about to do the commercial. But then also, one time I was watching a sitcom where these two people were hired to be background actors. But then they were just so enthusiastic, that they were really bad at being background actors and got fired from that role. And I feel like that's a potential problem. That was a good run into where she's just too enthusiastic. Well, being in the back. Wait, what you're saying I was in a commercial, I would be in the background. If you were hired to be someone who's like just a background actor, you would just be very excited. Yeah. I'd be like, Oh my god, what does that bouncing thing do? What does it bounce the light? Oh, my God. Yeah. Exactly. Oh, my God. What does that do in post production? Right. So this makes me question whether you are most likely to be in a commercial if you were like a background? Oh, yeah. Like I'll get I'll get cut off. Maybe for adorable reasons. Question number 10 is who's more likely to become a hoarder three to one lease sign? Yeah, I actually I agree with your answer. I forgot that neither was an option. either of us are particularly hoarding tendencies. The thing is, I feel like the reason I wouldn't become a hoarder is it would just bother me after a point. And I'd be like, no, like, we got to deal with this. And I feel like the reason you wouldn't become a hoarder is that you just you just as a person don't gravitate towards things. So like, if there was anything you would hoard it would be like plastic bags or something. Something very functional. Yeah, yeah, I think that's very accurate. Okay, question number 11. Who is more likely to go Bungee Jumping?

Unknown Speaker

27:56

Hmm.

Lisa Shen

27:57

This is a tricky one because I'm afraid of height. weight. Okay. Don't give me information. No, I'm afraid of heights.

Unknown Speaker

28:04

I didn't know that.

Lisa Shen

28:05

No, I'm afraid of heights. No, you're like oh, I'm gonna go on this tree top thingy and then I'm gonna go supply that I'm gonna go to the scandal employees. I've had this conversation so many times. My girlfriend were like she said something that radically changed my perspective on everything. She was like, I feel like everything that you truly love. You're also a little bit afraid. Like you're so right. Like I'm a little bit afraid of animals. I love dogs. In my heart, I love cats like heights like rock climbing. I'm like, really into that. Yeah. Fires another one. I love fire. Especially setting them in places I should have no. No, I just Yeah, I just I love fire. 321 Fritos. I would have said either No. Well, I guess neither. And both are equally like they don't I guess it's like, same difference kind of situation. Yeah, this is my thing is that I actually wanted to say equal because I don't think it's likely that either one of us are really going to be bungee jumping, but I think we're equally likely to either do or do not.

Unknown Speaker

29:10

Yeah, I mean, I think

Lisa Shen

29:11

I have a greater desire than you to go bungee jumping. But I think like at the top, I would have a harder time getting myself to take that leap. Yeah, I mean, I'm also afraid of heights. So but I also want to So yeah, I think we're in the same boat was like, actually, I think this is like when in grade 12 we plan to go to Canada's Wonderland. I basically before that trip, told all my friends who'd gone before that they not to let me check it out and to like, make sure I sit in a roller coaster. That's not what I tell people. I'm like, if I run, don't even try to come up. I was like, Listen, I know I'm gonna try to check it out. When I'm there. You have to force me to get into this. And then I did it was really fun. And I went the first ride I took there was the behemoth and the thing is that at this point, so I do this thing a couple times a year where I remember that roller Post her point of view videos exists about half an hour looking through, like all the point of view videos are like the tallest coasters in the world, and especially Wonderland. And so I feel like at this point I've, like, quote unquote, been on the behemoth so many times virtually, that when I actually do it won't be as bad because I'll kind of know when all the big jobs are gonna come. Cuz then you're gonna start anticipating it or, like knowing it, like I like I like being able to prepare myself for it. Okay, question number 12 is who is more likely to win the lottery? three to one? Neither? First of all, it kind of feels like a trick question. Because it's like, it's really, I guess, dependent on how many lottery tickets you buy. But also, there's just so little chance in general, that it's just neither no matter who you are.

Unknown Speaker

30:49

Yeah,

Lisa Shen

30:50

actually, nobody Think about that. This is a weird question for me to write. Okay, it kind of implies that some people are inherently more lucky than others, which is a whole other topic. Yeah. But yeah, I don't think either of us are particularly inclined to buy lottery tickets and stuff. No, I don't think so. I do genuinely think like maybe a couple times a month, just think to myself, like wow, but won the lottery. And I won like $10 million. What would I do with that? And then you'd have a nice time, like budgeting in my head. Yeah, no, I agree. I think it's a good thought experiment. Not a good Yeah. Actual financial situation or financial decision. But yeah, So question number 13 is who is a better liar? It'd be funny if we actually lied about our genuine answer. three to one. hesitation. I feel like in real life context, I don't think you can actually pull off. I have hidden the fact that I am the secrets head of my girlfriend for like, a month and a half before. Yeah, I guess you also could not hide that you got her the omegas plushies. But anyway, I will not add salt to the wound. I think in real life, you're very excited about stuff. But when it comes to a Magus amazing liar, I am not an evasive. What do you mean? I'm not an amazing liar. And it's not that you're an amazing liar is that I'm a very bad liar. Yeah. I just get very anxious and cannot hold my ground. Yeah, yeah. So I guess it's you, but neither of us are great. I mean, what can we say? We're just like, really honest people. Okay, you ready to get to the really good stuff? Oh, man, these are very interesting. Okay, question 14. Who is most likely to start world war three. in brackets it says accidentally or on purpose. So I guess there's like two questions. So maybe when we answer we can say blank and blank. Okay. Sure. Sure. I need to think about this. Yeah. Okay. I think I have my answer. Oh, man. I'm really not sure. Okay. 321. Lisa, and neither. Wow. Yeah, that's it. Really. I felt like I do feel like there was a lot going on there. Yeah. Wait, okay, so let's do with the accidentally, right. Why do you think it's me first? I don't know. I feel like you've told me a couple stories or you're like, yeah, like, I didn't realise the other day that this thing would do that. So like, I did this. And now this happened. Like, I just I don't know why, but I just like had that tone of voice and like that storyline as like a memory in my head, but I can't pinpoint any specific example. It's just to comment that it's just the art go general story. Maybe. What was your answer on this? I said, you me? Okay. Yeah, I guess I don't really have evidence. What what kind of me in all my infinite power possibly. Like write a poem that goes really viral? I think I said you because maybe you'll do something whimsical, that like leads has like a butterfly effect into something really fast. I don't know. It's just like, I think you do things that are more creative. And so potentially also, I just do like more things. And so probably probabilistically. Yeah, yeah, but the other thing we realised from recording this podcast is that I have a really hard time not pressing a button. Like what? I think when we played the jackbox games, there's one game where like, You're not supposed to press a button until the very end. I immediately got into the game and was like, Oh, my God button can I press? And then even older recordings, I'm like, I kind of wonder has the button even though we're not really know, what can I personally do to reduce your chance of becoming president of the unit? Well, you're in luck because I wasn't born in the United States. So well. Yeah. What about the on purpose? What did you say for your own purpose? I don't remember. I think you said you possibly. That seems like something I might Yeah. So it seems like we're both very committed to our answer. I mean, I don't know. Do we really want to go this far? Yeah, I don't know. I can't imagine what we could do to start world war three. Yeah. Like, honestly, this is purely hypothetical because I don't think any of us have Yeah, potential like, what am I gonna do cure cancer and someone suddenly everyone's like, okay, we fixed the cancer now war. Okay. All right. This is the last question. Question number 15. Who is more likely to become ruler of the world?

Unknown Speaker

35:30

not even sure. I know what that mean.

Lisa Shen

35:33

I have an answer. Okay. I feel like for this one, we should choose one of us. And not just both or neither. Oh, gosh. All right. There goes my there goes my cough out in 321 leaves.

Unknown Speaker

35:48

Okay,

Lisa Shen

35:49

I save for Rita. Because clearly, as a former fellow, she is one step closer than me having control over people. Those people being the residents of whatever your apartment is. Yeah, to be clear in our role, I don't actually control my students. Oh, that's interesting. I was just gonna say I mean, yeah, I don't think either of us are really super like, I don't even know what ruler of the world means. But also, Lisa is super organised and good at doing things like on a schedule than regular basis before deadlines and stuff. So I just feel like by sheer organisation skills should somehow end up being the ruler of the world. I don't really know how you become ruler of the world. I feel like the way you just logic to that was like if a then B then C, then Zed, like, unders. Right? But okay, you have to understand, like, how that happens. And I don't learn so yeah,

Unknown Speaker

36:49

I like

Lisa Shen

36:50

this question, because it presumes that there is that there one day will be like, not only will you be ruler of the world, you will be the inaugural ruler. Will you use your power for good or for evil? Yeah, I mean, yeah, like if someone offered me that position, I just feel like yeah, like pass. That's way too much responsibility. Like, I don't think I could even be like, Mayor or anything of a city. Like I just don't want to have that responsibility. Yeah, that's the other thing I was thinking about. I was like, I don't know if it's Lisa. Because on the one hand, it's like, yeah, sheer organisational skills. But on the other hand, it's like she's afraid to change to Gmail, so I'm not sure. Again, what does this have to do with becoming really of the world just like changing to a new system and having more responsibilities and stuff? It's like, I feel like you have like to have very well defined responsibilities. I feel like Fritos, really reaching here to apply the day to day functions of our lives to this question, I don't know how else you would possibly extrapolate. Yeah, just like desired have dominion over other people, I suppose. Are you implying that's more for me? No, I'm just applying maybe this is a bad question. We chosen and that is the podcast.
