#010 - A Bunch of Turkeys

  • Summary

  • - Robin thinks its adorable/hilarious that John spends time in the wilderness pretending to be girl animals and/or emotionally manipulating boy animals (as the girl animals surely do).
    - John recounts telling a client who works in a school (and gets a little cut off in the recording) about the behaviors of animals he hunts; the client says these animals sound like teenagers.
    - Robin thinks Daylight Savings is the dumbest thing ever, and arrived at this conclusion mostly through observing John's hunting practice.
    - John decides to backcountry camp on this particular hunt; not his usual choice.
    - Robin likes it when John hunts closer to home, which makes for local eatin'.
    - Both R&J highly recommend bacon wrapped quail.
    - Robin is struggling to balance the call of writing with the call of fiber arts.
    - She takes a deep dive and attempts to share her personal philosophy of health - Artist, Athlete, Addict - and how she arrived at this idea, through years of living with illness.
    - Robin wants to destigmatize Artists, Athletes, and Addicts; how all of us, at one point or another, say "I don't have an artistic/athletic bone in my body" or "that person is an addict, but not me." She thinks that every single one of us is all three.
    - John notes that each - Artist, Athlete, Addict - can be used as helpful tools, or hurtful weapons.
    - Robin's definition of Addict: a person who needs medicine. Full stop.
    - The way to achieve balance is to know when you're medicating/knowing and acknowledging when you need medicine.
    - Robin's mind is further blown (John's less so) of the etymology between text and textiles, her two chosen crafts.
    - John describes learning a single macrame knot.
    - John stares at hills all day; Robin stares at fibers all day. Both can spend a whole day doing so and end the day with nothing to show for it.
