Mini Rager

0:13Speaker 1:Welcome to the Mini Rager, where we rage but just.

0:16Speaker 2:A little bit.

0:20Speaker 3:You love decorations like people. I love decorations. People love decorations and they don't them, and then you love decorations. Yeah, I do, like I've genuinely like I just I don't love them enough to stockpile an entire house worth of to transform from holiday to holiday. And you do. So I want to hear about, like the process. Yeah, and it's like and also I want to know, like, is there ever a year where we're like I just don't feel like it.

0:58Speaker 2:No, okay, because we're getting we're getting in there, and then it's like I have to turn over. I turn over my entire apartment, all the art, all the bedding, just everything becomes Halloween, and then it turns to Christmas. Then it turns like year round. So it's like fun to switch it around. And I am I'm just me. I live alone, okay, and I have a little porch and there's a big inflatable dinosaur with a bunch of skeletons up there and pumpkins and I like them and it's cool. It's fun.

1:27Speaker 4:I will tell you that it's whack do wild what I do.

1:31Speaker 2:I tend to video it because I just go this is crazy, let's show people. But I went around to Burbank Halloween. There's a map Halloween Halloween map, right.

1:42Speaker 3:We wanted to go for a hot second. It looked down at the two small children we have and we're like, oh, that's not happening.

1:51Speaker 2:You should have just come to my house because I want to tell you what you want to know. When I got rage over the decor in the Rige's neighborhood of Te Luca Lake and also the richest there was one curb Bank and.

2:06Speaker 1:I am telling you it was sad.

2:10Speaker 2:Listen. There was a few houses that go all out. I posted it on my Instagram. There's one a out of Michael Myers and it's like fifteen million decorations.

2:17Speaker 1:It's hardcore.

2:18Speaker 2:But then some of the other houses that I remember from last year had a lot more in some of them.

2:22Speaker 1:We're talking about. Imagine, if you live on Candy Kate Lane.

2:26Speaker 2:You've got to you've got to bring it up.

2:29Speaker 1:We can't choose.

2:30Speaker 3:You have to have it for Halloween too, because the name is a little misleading, I.

2:35Speaker 2:Know, but okay, if if you're on if you're on Candy Corn Line and all the houses are whack. Could do wild decorated corner Candy Corn. I switch it for Halloween because you said we have to do all the holidays.

2:49Speaker 1:Oh so these aren't real streets. No, no, god, I'm calling it that.

2:53Speaker 2:It's just in Burbank into Luca, like really nice neighborhoods where they have the moolah. Okay, we're living in mansions here to decorate.

3:02Speaker 1:Okay.

3:03Speaker 2:And their test was parked outside with one of them had a huge truck that was towing their fun jeep.

3:10Speaker 1:I was just like, wow, these places their Tuesday car. Yeah, like what?

3:14Speaker 2:And some of them were really nice. Some of them just had like some lights and us skeletons.

3:21Speaker 1:Some were like it was like a one sad pumpkin.

3:25Speaker 2:Yes, what I have better decorations and what you are doing and I don't have any money. It's come on, come on, there's a lot of airca come.

3:38Speaker 3:I have the saddest, most random, small amalgamation of Halloween decorations. Yeah, and it's still sounding like more than what some of what you were like, Yes, but like I've got like one light up grave that's already broken. It's like the grave is made out of styrofoam and it's broken, but.

3:58Speaker 1:It still lights up.

3:59Speaker 3:I've got like one hand that comes out of the dirt and like a black cat that like with a spike that you.

4:07Speaker 1:Put in the ground. We don't have enough dirt for.

4:10Speaker 3:Any of this to go into these I was so livid at like one house having seventeen mannequins, probably all done by a set decorator with amazing lights, and like somebody built a pirate ship with a spooky pirate behind it and like a waterfall comet, like it's set decover.

4:35Speaker 2:Youre right, it's La La land. There's a bunch of creatives. They're going wild. And then the neighbor they don't have anything, they have nothing like and I'm like, are you going out of your house?

4:46Speaker 3:But maybe okay, but maybe they listen to me, maybe they're looking. Maybe the neighbors like I don't have to do anything, No, because you're doing it for the whole block.

4:55Speaker 1:Nope, that's not how it works. That's not how it works. So if you live on a street, you have got to rise up. They need to put it in the hoa rules.

5:05Speaker 3:Then well there's no hoa around there, there's always like in neighborhoods.

5:10Speaker 1:Really it's common sense.

5:12Speaker 2:If you're next to a house that goes ham on it and your little area is is darged on a mat on Instagram that says this is where all the cool houses are. And then you're just a sad house and you don't have anything, and you obviously leave in a mansion and you could hire people to even.

5:29Speaker 1:Get you stuff in like decorate. What are you doing because it brings us joy? How do we know though? Like what if they've fallen on hard times.

5:38Speaker 2:Then sell your house, then sell yourself your hell rat sell your house, Then for go Halloween and Christmas decorations because you know you're providing joy. Joy is limited, it's fleeting, just like happiness. It's the same thing, you know what you could give us just a little bit.

5:58Speaker 3:Just to be clear, these are just people living their life, but they are responsible to provide joy for all of these strangers.

6:04Speaker 1:They are Los Angeles.

6:05Speaker 2:Because we're driving around and we're going, oh my god, what.

6:08Speaker 3:If you learn though, and they were donating all this money?

6:12Speaker 1:They're not, But what if you learned that to wear Jake?

6:17Speaker 3:Why does it have to always be saying, Jude, the wonder your fault?

6:23Speaker 1:Like what if it was you know, does the Animal Society or Saint Jude all out a slide? I know we're on health organized. I don't know anybody Like that's fine, just you just erica, they're done.

6:34Speaker 2:I don't want to hear it, because you're gonna come in to me with an argument saying they're donating it? Literally, does I just as sang, you like three hundred dollars on decor and at least get probably three large items and some light.

6:52Speaker 5:Note if you have three hundred dollars to spend and are torn between donating to starving children or getting a few Halloween decorations to avoid public shaming by this one unhinged woman in Los Angeles sipping champagne while podcasting, please make the right choice. Obviously it's the decorations.

7:13Speaker 1:I guess this is what my thing is.

7:15Speaker 3:It's like I get it, but like I want you to for real answer for real, not just because you love decorations and you're like, look around, what's going on? Like do you honestly believe that these people should have to do this?

7:33Speaker 1:Yeah? I really do. If you are on holiday lane, or if you're on.

7:39Speaker 3:If it wasn't always that way, like what if it's it's built up over time. You're like, I didn't sign up for this, like I'm an Easter person.

7:46Speaker 2:I'm saying, Erica, Erica, you You've got to just what if they're just people love this kid, fucking husband or why or spouse and they're like depressed as hell, and they're like, I don't have an in me to decorate this year.

8:02Speaker 1:Okay, I'll let that. I'll let that slide. But you know what, you know what pure grief.

8:07Speaker 2:I'll let it slide for one year, cute grief, because you know what I'll say to help with that grief, get decorated, get creative, Start setting out, pumpkin, it happened yesterday.

8:18Speaker 1:Hey, it happened yesterday. Start unrap lost. There's spouse in a in a car crash.

8:26Speaker 2:Start on, wrap in that skeleton and you'll go, maybe she's with me yesterday.

8:50Speaker 2:Instead of going to good will, we're gonna put them all on the decorations and it's gonna go outside.

8:54Speaker 1:My late wife is usual wide over the house and she's.

8:57Speaker 2:Got pumpkins and stuff around her, and that that's how we make it work.

9:45Speaker 2:A few stranger lights, put a couple of skeletons, light them up and get a little inflatable.

9:50Speaker 3:But I don't want you to fucking answer unless it's hilarious. I don't want you to answer in like es. I want you to answer for real. I want to hear if you actually think that they should have to do this, like it's.
