Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Analuia podcast, bringing you redemptive analogies each week, everything from Disney to Naruto. We're here to present the Gospel in a more animated way. Get ready to raise a hallelujah. It's time for Analuia.

Speaker 2:

And you're watching to another episode of the Analuia podcast. My name is Josh and we thank you for inviting us back into your listening ears this week, and we also hope you enjoyed the last couple of weeks with our anime around table special. So much fun with that, so much fun with reconnecting with some old guests that we've had on the show prior and talking about our favorite anime series. If you want to listen to those, which we encourage you to do so you can do so by going to your podcast platform or on all major ones Spotify, apple podcasts, stitcher, what have you and we also have a YouTube channel if you're. If you, anytime that we do a podcast, we do have a video component that is generally the unedited full conversation of the podcast, so we encourage you to go there and check that out as well so you can see our lovely faces each week. But speaking of lovely faces, I am going to bring my lovely wife, rebecca.

Speaker 1:

Hey guys.

Speaker 2:

And you'll notice something different about Rebecca. She's wearing glasses, but they're. Oh, did you just get glasses? Well, no, she usually wears contacts, but she won't do worry about that for too much longer, rebecca. Tell them why.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I usually wear contacts on the show because, just like you can see now, there's this like glare and I hate that. So, yeah, I have decided, after like 26 years wearing glasses and contacts, that I'm going to get LASIK eye surgery. So I'm really excited. That happens literally on two days and just a couple of days. So I'm really excited that I'm going to to do that. I'm going to be a whole new person. So, yeah, that'll be really nice that I don't have to plan around things with my glasses, because there's a lot more planning than you would think. If you don't wear glasses or contacts, like you don't understand, there's a lot of extra thoughts that come along with having that, depending on what you're doing for the day. So, yeah, I'm really excited.

Speaker 2:

Awesome, Whole whole new Rebecca and you all get to see that next week.

Speaker 1:

That's right. Yes, next week We'll get to tell you all about.

Speaker 2:

And then I look too different to you all because it's probably the same when she doesn't have glasses, but we'll notice a difference, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I will.

Speaker 2:

Well, is that time of year again. Some of you it's spooky season, some of you it's fall hard this season, and for the rest of us we don't really care. It is October and that is when Halloween happens. Now we've gone back and forth the Halloween. I'm pretty much good on my stance of like. You know, I don't mess with the demonic, the witchcraft, all that which is embedded in all the paganism of Halloween, but we seem to be. You know, we, we teeter-totter a little bit each year. So, rebecca, where are we this year? Short and sweet of it.

Speaker 1:

So the short and sweet of it is, like you said, we've gone back and forth over the years of like completely saying no, nothing to do with Halloween at all. To well, I mean, you know, trick or trading is fine dressing up, and I think we've finally landed on at least this year. We've landed on that. The trick or treating is fine, dressing up is okay. Like you said, don't mess with the demonic, because there's a lot of nasty gross stuff, absolutely.

Speaker 1:

And making the like. I don't know if you've seen the like meatloaf foot that's like all gross and gory like the food that's gory food and and they use like candy corn for the toenails. Yes, yeah, it's just no, the best is slivered almonds.

Speaker 2:

No, no, no, no. Let's not talk about that anymore.

Speaker 1:

But so the point is that, yeah, don't.

Speaker 1:

I don't think messing with that is is really good, because that's kind of glorifying gore and right, don't, I don't know? That just seems kind of wrong. But like dressing up, whatever. There's people who, you know, cosplay all throughout the year, so why would it be okay to cosplay every other day, except for, you know, halloween? Yeah, there just seems kind of like. And you know, I mean I've got a friend who has that was a Wiccan at one point, that was a witch and into witchcraft and stuff, and she's a Christian now, but it's she's like, honestly, most of the stuff that they show on like movies and TV shows, like it's it's not real, that's not real magic it's, it's just kind of like make believe, like interesting. Okay, I think you can go down a dark hole with some of that If you let it in. Always, always, always, listen to Holy Spirit and what he's telling you. If he says this is not something you need to participate in at all, then don't do it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it is. It is between you and God, honestly, absolutely and in the end of the deal. Now, that couldn't be a lead into. Now we're going to talk about spooky movie, no we depends on who you are.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, spooky for feminists.

Speaker 2:

We'll get into that in just a minute. Yeah, but we said we sent out a poll on our Instagram earlier this week Well, actually last week and we asked what do you want us to talk about next? And we gave a few options and the majority of you answered Snow White and the seven doors. That's right. We're taking a trip all the way back down to Disney Hope, disney 1937 wasn't Snow White?

Speaker 1:

the very first animated movie, full length feature feature yet because Paul had this stuff with.

Speaker 2:

You know, Nick Nelschor, Silly Symphony, all that stuff kind of leading up to Snow White. Now if you don't know the story Snow White, I'm going to give you a basic synopsis, Crash Course. Otherwise you can go and get a book at your local library and I know that guy said library. I will say to the day I die so Ferris wanted the land. Queen gets jealous. She doesn't like her Since the huntsman after her. Oh, please don't kill me. So I can't do it. She runs off into the woods and someone's upon a cottage where she paints. It's where children live, but it's actually little men on the side of her, for two in the in the movie.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, they don't ever say dwarfs, Do they?

Speaker 2:

know they don't. And of course, Snow White being Snow White, she's hired as their living maid. Probably doesn't get paid in the vein, and so for you know, shelter.

Speaker 1:

I mean that's, that's quite a lot.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, anyway, the Queen comes in a old old wish lady disguise and Snow White being Snow White, she's this poison apple. She gets into the sleet of death. All this, all the animals and all the dwarfs are sad. Prince Charming comes, kisses her with a consent and she wakes up and they go on to their castle in the sky.

Speaker 1:

Beautiful, beautiful Josh.

Speaker 2:

Now, rebecca, you've liked this movie a lot more than you thought you would. Now you've already seen it, but it's been a while.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it had been a while. I generally just don't like the character of Snow White. She's kind of annoying.

Speaker 2:

Well, and that's kind of like what this whole episode is based around on is.

Speaker 1:

That she's annoying.

Speaker 2:

No, oh, the characteristics of Snow White and the allusions to different aspects of the story that Adam and Eve in the book of Genesis. But before we get onto that, rebecca, you said something about feminists and feminism. I'll add the ring on that, because you had some stuff to say while you were watching.

Speaker 1:

I had quite a lot to say while we were watching.

Speaker 2:

Now keep in mind everyone this was made back in 1937. So the ideologies and philosophies of what were a woman's place was was very different.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, very, very different. Yeah, because the liberation for women didn't really come around, or at least they didn't start to enter the workforce until like the 60s. The 60s were man. It was a time of activism and rebellion. I mean, you have the civil rights movement, you've got the gay liberation movement, you've got the women's rights. I mean so many different things were going on at the time in the 60s. But anyway, I had a lot of fun actually watching the movie, because I was, I don't know. We just made fun of it and called out crazy things.

Speaker 1:

Her little high-pitched voice, I mean everything about her, the way that she looks is just like classic, what a man would want to see. And yeah, she was. Just I could tell she was definitely written, a character written by men and certainly visually portrayed by men. Granted, I don't know the history and background of the making of the movie, so I guess I shouldn't comment too much on that. But she, I forget what I was going to say. Honestly, I went off on a tangent and now I've forgotten. But yeah, I'm surprised at myself that I'm much more of a feminist than I thought I was, and that's really been this year. That's been a growth point this year for me just kind of like waking up, becoming aware of the different standards that men have for women and women have for women and society has for other people, and it's a bunch of it's a mess, it's a lot of a mess.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, I mean essentially when Snow White bleeds the city which, by the way, I mean I think it's kind of funny that the queen is like, hmm, what can Snow White do? Have her go out and pick flowers, because I guess that's all she's good for picking flowers. And so she gets all dressed up and looks nice and goes out to pick flowers, until the huntsman tries to murder her, which he doesn't. So she runs away to the cottage and there she thinks, oh, I can help these little children clean things, even though they're dwarfs. And yeah, it just seems like the way that it was portrayed was just like that's the only thing that she could do or that she could give. I mean, looking back on it, like I guess it kind of makes sense that, yeah, she didn't have a penny to her name, she didn't have anything. So what could she give? Maybe they. If she cleaned and cooked for them, then they would let her stay. So maybe I was a little too harsh on the movie when we were watching it. That's, that's my, my quick take.

Speaker 2:

Well, that leaves right into the song what's so I work? When she rides up the cottage and has befriended the woodland creatures, what's so I work? You would think when you see Snow White she's already turned on like cooking clean. She cooks that as far as clean, she does almost nothing. She does a little bit. That is true, the animals do the codwoods and do the laundry. They most of the sweeping and she sweeps like a few little veins.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I guess she cooks at some point in there because there is a pot of stew Right when the dwarfs come home.

Speaker 2:

Now the character Snow White is likened to the character of Eve, because Eve was naive, he was gullible.

Speaker 1:

I have a feeling, though, like I could be friends with Eve. I don't there's not a lot about her in the Bible, but I think we could be friends. I'm not sure I would want to be friends with Snow White, I mean honest.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was probably more tolerable than Snow White.

Speaker 1:

Oh, because she's just oh, man, I don't know she, because she's just like the whole wishing well and she's the little high pitched voice. It's just kind of annoying.

Speaker 2:

I mean, it is annoying after a while.

Speaker 1:

I'll give you that little nasally singing.

Speaker 2:

And I never, okay, I never got that scene. The wishing well, Well, yeah that. But then the prince is like hey, you're wishing it, true? And what do you do? You run away.

Speaker 1:

She did.

Speaker 2:

Like a nanny you run away.

Speaker 1:

Oh no. Well, think about that though, Josh. Like how many times have you met someone that you're like, oh gosh? When you actually meet them, you're like oh, this is scary, I don't do I read. Is it okay to like them? So I guess I can see that.

Speaker 2:

I was never scared, and anytime I met someone I was like all right, do this.

Speaker 1:

You were never scared to ask a girl out.

Speaker 2:

Oh, ask her out. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, that. I thought, I thought you were, like you know, actually meeting them. That the date or something, and no, but you were never nervous. Oh yeah. Yeah, I was nervous but I became more confident. And when I was more confident I just, hey, you want to go out? But if it was a no, I was like, hey, that's fine.

Speaker 1:

Apparently. Josh got game.

Speaker 2:

I didn't have the game.

Speaker 1:

But now you don't need it, so that's good.

Speaker 2:

Nope, but getting on to more of the illusions. So he has to know why he keeps saying illusions.

Speaker 1:

I don't think that's the right word.

Speaker 2:

Like a Lou. So the allegories, the allegories, yeah. Maybe, so the allegories there's another word. So white and in the same, towards to the look of the story of Genesis.

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

So he has no white he obviously with the character traits. He also had the Queen, which is Satan. We had the magic mirror, which I thought I could Dean as a little Satan, like he's just a, a minion, for.

Speaker 1:

He's just kind of neutral. Yeah Well, he's. I mean, she, the Queen, even like, calls him out when she's doing her come magic mirror. Tell me the truth she calls him a slave.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and that's one thing I never noticed before.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I didn't notice until this time either. Um, I thought that was. I thought that was really really interesting.

Speaker 2:

The seven Georgia's. I thought I could be like the seven virtue's, but not really.

Speaker 1:

Sneezy, sneezy's a virtue.

Speaker 2:

No, no, I said, I thought, yeah, and say he's not. No, we can just call them again. They're not really in the. They're not really mentioned in the Bible or the book of Genesis. Partying angels maybe.

Speaker 1:

I mean there, I mean seven is the perfect number.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

So I mean, maybe it's like the perfection of God who's helping Eve along and be their companions.

Speaker 2:

Right, right and then the Prince Christ. We could make that correlation.

Speaker 1:

Absolutely.

Speaker 2:

Or Holy Sphere, one of the two.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, I think I think for sure, because the Princeton at the end of the movie he comes and gives life to Snow White so we are, so it's like we are dead without Christ. Yeah, when we've ingested sin into our lives, basically.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because when we get to that scene near the end where nobody today would delete this, so Queen turns into old Granny. She goes up to Snow White and she's like oh, what's she got there? Gooseberry thai, I know, it's apple pie. That means the men's mouth water.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she's making the pie for Grumpy too. Yeah Well, she's sweet on.

Speaker 2:

Grumpy.

Speaker 1:

As she is.

Speaker 2:

But she's like, oh really, so yeah, I've got all these apples here and it won't. But can I, can I come in and the wooden creatures like Attacker and Snow White has sympathy on her and she's like won't you have one? This is no ordinary apple, this is a wishing apple. Bs, no, no, so wishing, but again, just like the serpent in the book of Genesis, did God really say that? Did he really say you'd eat at this tree? You will surely die? Well, when God says surely, it doesn't mean might, it doesn't mean coulda, woulda, it means surely it means you will.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and what they? What Eve didn't realize is that God was talking about a spiritual death. Right, not a physical, not a physical death and it was like it's kind of like Ignorance's bliss in a way, is what they were both Adam and Eve were living in, because they didn't know that there was good and evil in the world. And once they tasted of the fruit of the tree, which probably wasn't an apple, it was probably like a, I think, a fig or a permission or something like that.

Speaker 2:

But what's a, what's a permission?

Speaker 1:

A permission is like a pear, I think. A permission, Whether that, or it's like closer to passion fruit or something like that, I'd have to like no apricots. I'm sorry, Permissions are like apricots yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay, okay, okay, I can see that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and they grow on trees Anyway. So what was I even saying? When they ate it, they didn't know, they didn't. When they ate it, they, they became aware of good and evil Right?

Speaker 2:

yes, and they were ashamed of their nakedness, and so they got clothes out of leads or burlap sacks or whatever.

Speaker 1:

Burlap sacks. Do you think they had time to make burlap sacks?

Speaker 2:

They, they got leads, burlap sacks weren't invented until way later.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. The Bible says fig leaves. Fig leaves okay, Specifically Well, you're.

Speaker 2:

You're our resident biblical expert.

Speaker 1:

I don't know about expert, but, but it did save big fig leaves Um in there, and so that's what they they clothed themselves with. Either that or it. Was it fig leaves, or was it? Yeah, I think it was not animal skins, um, cause I don't think at that point they had killed animals. There's a lot of people that believe that in the Garden of Eden they were well as pertho vegetarians or vegans and I'm not one that subscribes to that idea or doctrine.

Speaker 2:

Why Well, another one, not vegan? Number two, don't want to be number three.

Speaker 1:

I mean just because that's how it was then doesn't mean that. I imagine it has to be that way now.

Speaker 2:

The wedding feast in heaven is going to be a smorgasmorg.

Speaker 1:

Lots of meat, meat and are they going to have pork there, you think?

Speaker 2:

Uh, and it's a kosher, I know that's why I'm asking. So maybe not that, but maybe ice cream they love ice cream, oh my goodness. But yeah, so it was the spiritual death again, not a physical, and it came with consequences. But God dig them, you know. A second chance and that's what we see in the end of the movie is Prince Charming comes up to Snow White, gives her the breath of life. She's reborn in a way. She's now brought that, she's a new creation.

Speaker 1:

You can say yeah, and, and you know, god always had that plan. He, he made us with free will, because what is love without free will? It's not real love. And he knew that we were probably going to eat of that tree.

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah, yeah, nothing. Nothing changed God. That's a surprise.

Speaker 1:

Right, and so he had a plan. He was like all right, I'm going to make these people. They're going to betray me.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

And which still hurts, I'm sure, and we're going to sever that connection that they have because God was walking with them in the afternoon, just like hanging out, walking with them.

Speaker 1:

Was that the pre-incarnated? Pre-incarnated Christ? I forget what the official term is, but like Christ before he was born into the world, was that? Was that how that happened? We don't know. But I mean, they had a perfect relationship and then and then they ate of the knowledge of the, from the tree, of the knowledge of good and evil, and they all of a sudden had to be cast out. But God was like I've got a plan, though After a long time, it was like 3000 years or something, maybe more than that, I don't remember. You know they that that he would bring Jesus into the world, that he would send his son, his, his body into the world to be flesh, so that we could know the father, that we could know him and be saved, and to build that bridge again for that relationship. And yeah, that's what the prince does he found. He found us and brought us back to life because we were dead inside bed… but we are live again.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I was with the. The Evanescent song. Wake me up inside.

Speaker 2:

Oh, and you're not in the of the bonus track on Skidda, which is Dead Inside.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, it did not go that direction in my brain.

Speaker 2:

Now, another thing that you can make an argument for is one of my favorite scenes in this movie just because I personally think it's funny and we'll play a little bit of a here and we'll get some commentary is the hand washing scene, because they're bad liars and they said that they washed their hands recently. The Dwarves did and they're like well, show me, and they are called out by Snow White.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she doesn't. She makes no bones about it. Yeah, she's like mmm.

Speaker 2:

And Doc is trying to shuffle.

Speaker 1:

He's like well, when recently, yes recently, recently, last year, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I like how Doc is like, so jumbled up in his like wording is like hey, ask her where a whole she, you know who we are. Ask her what she's doing here and who she is. Yeah, yeah, oh, who, who, who, who, what are you and who are you doing? I mean, who are you? Okay? So this is. I read somewhere that this could be a allegory for that ism. So you guys think so. This is when they're going to wash the hands and it's like a big ordeal for them. Here we go, Step up to the top. Pain on disgrace. Just pull up your sleeves and get them in place, Then scoop up the water and rub it on your face and go. That's how you wash your hands and how you wash your face.

Speaker 1:

Wow, those sons got on there. It takes a lot more scrubbing oh, it does. So what is this for?

Speaker 2:

This is like an allegory they said to like that ism. And I mean maybe you're like cleaning off, like you're being washed of your sins. Why don't you go and make me sick on it? Grumpy is very against it, but yeah, it's just like over the top. If you needed a commentary or an instructional on how to wash your hands or face their hair is ribbons. Yeah, that's right, you're tongue grumpy. But yeah, that's been said to be like an allegory for that ism. That's what you guys think.

Speaker 1:

I think that's a bit of a stretch. Personally, I mean, I see where people are coming from when they say that, but yeah, I think a bit of a stretch there.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and maybe I just want to play it because I like that scene so much. There's a lot more to it, which is also funny. You guys make sure to watch it. Maybe you have the old BHS copy of it, or DVD even, or Disney plus, god forbid. As I said before, I've always liked, you know, different aspects of the story. I've never read the friends fairy tale version of them. Sure, it's a grim. Yeah, the dark grim.

Speaker 1:

I wonder if that is that, why is that why we use that word that way? Grim, well, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Grim.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, is that because of Grim's fairy tales?

Speaker 2:

It may be.

Speaker 1:

That would be interesting. When were they written?

Speaker 2:

Well, I don't know, but John Soto would the guy on YouTube.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I guess he would.

Speaker 2:

Interesting histories behind. I like his stuff with the folk yeah but with someone in the sun, george, the ideologies for how women looked and I think that set the precedent for Disney princesses throughout all the decades, because we haven't seen like a plus size Disney princess. We've gotten different ethnicities.

Speaker 1:

Not many, but yes.

Speaker 2:

Well, we just had a Colombian Disney princess and there, oh, what was?

Speaker 1:

it Enchanted.

Speaker 2:

En canto.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's not a princess movie.

Speaker 2:

Well, no, I mean, but she could be some other princess Maybe. Well, the long is not a princess either.

Speaker 1:

I guess that's true. She meets the emperor, though.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, by association, no by association.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, there's, but yeah, there haven't been very many stories.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, not too many. Hopefully, maybe in the future and no Disney trying to be all inclusive, maybe you'll see it.

Speaker 1:

I mean that would be great. I mean everyone deserves to see someone like them on screen in like a princess role. Every little girl deserves that, I think. So, yeah, I hope they do make more.

Speaker 2:

And you thought you were through with this and you said you didn't mention a hi-ho. And I gotta mention it. Hi-ho ought to work. We go is one of the best songs in the movie, I would say, because I had it on VHS as a sand lawn but I skipped it every time, so I didn't like it that much.

Speaker 1:

It's very singable though.

Speaker 2:

It is very simple.

Speaker 1:

I hope it's off. Don't work, make go and though.

Speaker 2:

Okay. So they must be loaded because they mind for diamonds and rupees and all these.

Speaker 1:

What do they do with all of those things?

Speaker 2:

They just hoard them. Well, they put them in a vault and they leave the king on the hook, where anybody could get it.

Speaker 1:

They're not very smart.

Speaker 2:

No, no, and so why doesn't very smart either?

Speaker 1:

So one's very smart? Actually, no one's very smart.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no situation. Well, maybe the magic mirror, since that's true, maybe only smart one. I can't say that the prince we don't know him. Yeah, no for all, but maybe two minutes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he literally is just like I'm your one true love.

Speaker 2:

It's just so. So accepting to say on the way is oh, you're here, I guess go on to live together in your castle.

Speaker 1:

This guy made of clouds.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so that okay, is she like still dead?

Speaker 1:

Maybe that's the real grim story. Tale is that she did die and that he decided to like die with her, and they both went up to the evidence.

Speaker 2:

You know, I'm inclined to believe that, because that. Well that's the image, or at least in the Disney version that that kind of alludes to, that maybe.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I don't know why put clouds there. It doesn't really make a lot of sense, unless it's like the ethereal.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean. I mean, you could draw many different conclusions from that.

Speaker 1:

I mean for our little allegory here of Adam and Eve and Jesus, like yeah, we do go to heaven.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the kingdom of God.

Speaker 1:

And so I think you can make that an earlier to Josh. You were saying that the colors that represent snow white. You've got her. Oh yeah, black as ebony, skin white as snow and lips red as a rose. Black, white and red. What were you going to say about all of that?

Speaker 2:

I think I know, but Well, it's also interesting because those are the colors that the queen uses to deceive snow white, because she gets hair white as snow. She, her cloak is black as raven and her on the red. Yep apple is red as a rose.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that is interesting. Yeah, so that's not what I thought you were going to say, oh what did you think I was going to say? Well, I thought you were going to say like good and evil, black and white, good and evil, oh yeah, war between each other. But then the blood of Christ comes in between and say right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're right. You're right, You're right, I didn't think about that. Yeah, that's very feasible, because you do have that struggle between you know, snow white and the queen trying to battle for her soul, basically, and the prince is like I got it. But yeah. So if you haven't already figured out, you would definitely recommend this film. I know a lot of you have probably seen it, but in case you haven't ever seen it or you've, been on time maybe you could already watch.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, go back, watch it again or at least watch the dollar store version of happily ever after Never again, no, no no, I will not be watching that again. I had the VHS of that for some reason. I don't know why, but yeah, maybe because I like the bad song. During that time I was very uncultured.

Speaker 1:

Man. Well, did you want to talk about the live action movie of Snow White coming out?

Speaker 2:

We don't know much about it. I mean, we know that's coming out sometime in 2024. But aside from that, there's been like a casting decision, but then that decision was changed. I don't know what that is now Casting decision was changed. Yeah, so far they don't?

Speaker 1:

they didn't tell anybody what it was.

Speaker 2:

Well, they told that the person who was going to be playing Snow White is no longer going to be playing Snow White oh really. Well, that's why I thought it again. That could be a rumor. I don't know the full extent of it, but what I would like to talk about is we're just going to take a couple minutes and what are our favorite things about fall?

Speaker 1:

Oh about, fall, OK PSL's.

Speaker 2:

Classic.

Speaker 1:

Can't go wrong.

Speaker 2:

Something else that you like personally. That's not basic.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I mean really. I love the crispness and the air that begins to come.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, the weather in the morning has been top tier.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's just been so nice. I love more like fall winter clothing because I feel just so cozy and like wrapped up and secure.

Speaker 2:

You can't go wrong with a good hoodie and my thing in for my entire.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, and the cable knit sweaters and oh yeah, all of that. I love it. That's one of my favorite things about fall. But also it means that the holiday season is coming up.

Speaker 2:

Yep and once October passes, is like Thanksgiving and Christmas are like right together.

Speaker 1:

Really close. Yeah, yeah, we man, we start off even at work. We fall is intense. We end up because we've got our, we're planning our like Thanksgiving meal with everyone in the office, or the 17th I think, the Friday before before that. Then we leave, we go, then we're off for Thanksgiving and then, like, basically the next week, all of a sudden, boom, we are right into into Christmas and we're doing dirty Santa at work.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So we're going to do Angel Tree. That's coming up here really soon. Actually, we have until like the second or the first of December to get all that stuff in. So it's just, it's a lot. There's a lot going on the next couple of months here and they will fly by so fast.

Speaker 2:

They will indeed.

Speaker 1:

But I mean fall specifically, though I like that things are, they start to slow down during the fall and in the winter months, and I honestly think that God did that by design. You know, I think he did that by design because summer is like spring and summer is like go, go, go, go, and even you know fall, harvest time, but then winter comes and it's like woo. Okay, we're going to calm down and take a rest. And I tell you what I need a rest.

Speaker 2:

I think, well, I mean coming out this week, you get a full week off.

Speaker 1:

A week. Well, for the most part, yeah. I think I'm about ready to admit that I'm pretty close to burnout and that's not good.

Speaker 2:

No, no. But you know what You're going to have a week off. We're going to go to a pumpkin patch here in a couple of days and it's going to be fun. And you know what are your guys's favorite fall things? You know, tell us, DM us at least a comment on our Instagram, because we love fall. I mean, I love the pumpkin spice lattes. I like going to different events around that time. I love apple cider. I'm on my favorite things. But yeah, what are your favorite things?

Speaker 1:

Making a pumpkin, Josh, you were. You saw someone on TikTok do this and thought that we should do it. It was like a fall themed day. Oh yeah, fall day, Fall date.

Speaker 2:

I had the food menu. It's namely sugar-free sweets. But menu.

Speaker 1:

Nonetheless.

Speaker 2:

It's on savory, yeah. So I haven't decided on exactly when we're going to do it. We're going to do it really soon. It's going to happen and also, tomorrow is our sixth year anniversary and it's very exciting. It's very exciting. We're going to celebrate. I thought we would do the fall day that day, but now we're just going to have a nice day and it's just celebrating being together. So happy early anniversary.
