Film character

May 25, 2026

14:48
Let's double bag it then.
BeccaGUEST
14:49
We're packing everything, and then, like, Orlando was like, "Did you, did you, did we order enough bins?" And I was like, "Well, this is the same amount of bins I ordered last time," totally forgetting that last time we didn't order enough bins.
BeccaGUEST
15:00
So we're getting to the end of these bins, and I'm like, "Fuck, we still have so much, so much to pack, and we have no bins left." And so then by the day the movers came and th- they're taking the bins, I'm like, okay, the trash bag is just...
BeccaGUEST
15:12
Like, we're shoving things in-
17:44
Baker's, fresh for everyone.
BeccaGUEST
17:50
Geico presents a 30-second podcast between your podcast.
BeccaGUEST
17:54
Today's story is shared by one of our listeners.
BeccaGUEST
17:56
It's called Betrayed By Bill.
6:36
What was it like going into labor?
BeccaGUEST
6:39
It was actually, I didn't really know I was in labor, and I told my fiance to go to work that morning 'cause I was like, "Oh, no, no.
BeccaGUEST
6:45
Like, it's nothing.
BeccaGUEST
6:46
I'm totally fine." Um, but I woke up at 6:30 in the morning, and I had, like, some stomach cramps, and I thought it was maybe just, you know, like I had to poop or something.
BeccaGUEST
6:56
But when I went to the bathroom, and I noticed there was a little bit of blood coming out, and I was like, "Oh, either this is concerning or it's my mucus plug." So, gotta start paying attention to things.
BeccaGUEST
7:05
And then all of a sudden, I just got these wild cramps while I was sitting on the toilet, and I was like, "This...
BeccaGUEST
7:11
Hmm," and I couldn't breathe very well through them or think or be on my phone.

5 MINS LATER

12:31
How was postpartum for you?
FeifeiHOST
0:53
But before you do that, would you mind explaining the phrase in over your head?
BeccaGUEST
0:59
Sure.
BeccaGUEST
1:00
Imagine you have many things to do, and it almost feels like you're drowning in your tasks.
BeccaGUEST
1:05
The phrase in over your head comes from the literal dangerous situation of being in water that is deeper than your height.
FeifeiHOST
2:10
Becca, what else do we need to know about this phrase?
BeccaGUEST
2:13
Well, don't forget the preposition in at the beginning, in over your head, because if I say over my head without the preposition in, it means I didn't understand something.
BeccaGUEST
2:24
For example, if I don't understand someone's joke, the joke goes over my head.
FeifeiHOST
1:24
And what makes you think that?
BeccaGUEST
1:27
Well, the last time we had such a big project coming up, we had to produce a lot more programs very quickly.
BeccaGUEST
1:34
I'm not entirely sure, though.
BeccaGUEST
1:37
It is just a hunch.
FeifeiHOST
2:24
[upbeat jingle] So it's like an intuition you have about something, when you think something is true even if you can't explain why.
BeccaGUEST
2:35
Yes.
BeccaGUEST
2:36
We can have a hunch, follow a hunch, or act on a hunch.
BeccaGUEST
2:40
It's not so much that we try to prove our hunch is true, but we go along with it.
EllieGUEST
133:20
Mm.
BeccaGUEST
133:20
Another one is y- something that you've been raised with.
BeccaGUEST
133:23
I mean, unless you were, let's say, converting for them in relig- if you wanted to bring religion into that, but I don't see the context of that.
BeccaGUEST
133:31
But you're talking about, like, what you were before, and in my cases, I would not want to date a man that used to be a female.
BeccaGUEST
133:38
Sorry.

3 HRS 50 MINS LATER

363:23
Yeah, like, what is your opinion on, like, IVF, like people going to sperm banks and stuff?
BeccaGUEST
363:26
Like that
BeccaGUEST
363:26
thatI honestly, I just don't yet have an opinion on that stuff.
Anne MartinNARRATOR
24:26
Thank you for telling me.
BeccaGUEST
24:27
Being bedridden for 18 months gave him lots of time to think, you know? He endured so much pain, but, but I never saw him cry until, until the day your letter came and, and he read that you'd forgiven him.
Anne MartinNARRATOR
24:45
It was only right that I should forgive, too.
BeccaGUEST
24:48
I just wanted you to know he got right with God before the end, and your letter was a big part of that.
BeccaGUEST
24:55
Thank you, Annie.
BeccaGUEST
24:57
Thank you.
speaker_4HOST
19:49
Oh, yeah.
BeccaGUEST
19:49
And that felt like it changed everything for me, because I, I realized that, um, old time music is like one of the most, it's one of the most accessible ways to learn how to play with other people, and it's, um...
BeccaGUEST
20:03
And the, what I like to say is I had been playing guitar incredibly shittily for like 12 years, and it was one of the first times that I really felt like I could learn to play with other people.

18 MINS LATER

speaker_3UNKNOWN
38:45
I don't get to do it very often.
BeccaGUEST
38:47
Yay.
BeccaGUEST
38:47
[upbeat instrumental music]
speaker_0UNKNOWN
4:45
Have a good day.
BeccaGUEST
4:47
Thank you.
BeccaGUEST
4:49
It is so annoying how people never remember to rewind these things.
BeccaGUEST
4:53
Ugh, can they not read? Ugh.
speaker_0UNKNOWN
4:57
I'll help you.
BeccaGUEST
4:58
Thank you.
BeccaGUEST
4:59
So, uh, you and Billy have any fun plans this weekend?
4:20
... at the bonfire because I'm telling you right now, they do an amazing job.
BeccaGUEST
4:25
Oh, it's just, every aspect of this show is amazing.
BeccaGUEST
4:30
To the aspect of the guy going, "I think honesty is the only way you can be." Two seconds later, "I constantly lie to my girlfriend." [laughs]

BeccaGUEST

BeccaGUEST
48:10
I've been pretty upfront that I'm on a GLP-1 journey for myself.
BeccaGUEST
48:14
It's for my health.
FeifeiHOST
1:35
But Becca, what do you mean by a flow state?
BeccaGUEST
1:39
The phrase flow state gained popularity on social media.
BeccaGUEST
1:42
A lot of young people use it as part of their everyday language.
BeccaGUEST
1:46
When we enter a flow state, we feel that we are fully focused on something.
BeccaGUEST
1:50
It's a kind of mental state where we're fully concentrated on whatever we're doing, and because of that, we feel like time moves more quickly.
BeccaGUEST
1:59
We might not think about anything else other than what we're doing, and we might do it more skillfully and easily as a result.
FeifeiHOST
2:29
And is it only work tasks that you feel you get into a flow state for?
BeccaGUEST
2:34
Not at all.
FeifeiHOST
1:28
Hmm, you've got me?
BeccaGUEST
1:30
Well, you've got me comes from the phrase, "I've got your back," which if you think about literally means to support someone.
BeccaGUEST
1:38
Imagine coming down a ladder and your friend is behind you and helping to hold you up or making sure that you don't fall.
BeccaGUEST
1:45
We often use the colloquial expression, I've got you, metaphorically to show support or offer help.
speaker_6SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
2:37
You'll be fine.
BeccaGUEST
2:39
[upbeat music] Sometimes got you can be pronounced as got you, especially in some British English accents.
BeccaGUEST
2:49
It happens when the letter T is followed by a ya sound, like in Tuesday, tuna, and nature.
14:54
Okay
BeccaGUEST
14:54
...
BeccaGUEST
14:54
this is my problem with her.
BeccaGUEST
14:56
She's whining and crying, "Oh, what's society gonna think if we go out in the real world with each other?" You're on a reality show where the entire world is watching you, woman.
BeccaGUEST
15:06
You went on a show-
15:43
Mm-hmm.
BeccaGUEST
15:43
Like, you know, out of 100 people, 13 people matched with people appropriately.
BeccaGUEST
15:49
47, 99 men went after, you know, 99% of all men went after women under the age of 30, you know? [laughs] Like-
18:45
... do we start not allowing s- like, people who have children under 18 on the show?
BeccaGUEST
18:51
Yeah, 'cause it seems so...
BeccaGUEST
18:54
If the idea of this show is to get married at the end and to move in and to be husband and wife, it just seems so traumatizing and dangerous to allow strangers to move into your home with your children.

10 MINS LATER

28:52
Yes.
BeccaGUEST
28:52
She says, "Yeah, I guess I did, but, like, in that moment, he was flipping a switch in real time," and she apologizes and she reiterates, "I was 100% in with Connor from the jump." No, you weren't, girl.
BeccaGUEST
29:06
We saw you on the honeymoon.
BeccaGUEST
29:08
I need a second discussion with Chris.
BeccaGUEST
29:10
I might even-
15:43
And she's like, "Well, I can move, so I'm okay with that, but I think we need to have a conversation about it." These two have no problems.
BeccaGUEST
15:49
Yeah.
BeccaGUEST
15:50
They're talking about, she tells him, like, "You know, when I was a kid, my parents just introduced a lot of their partners to me, and that was traumatizing.
BeccaGUEST
15:57
I wanna do this right.
BeccaGUEST
15:59
I, I want slow steps into meeting your kids and..."

16 MINS LATER

31:49
I'm like, oh, this got weird.
BeccaGUEST
31:52
That...
BeccaGUEST
31:52
It was a little weird, 'cause it's like that's, I think, a thought I would have.
5:54
Yes.
BeccaGUEST
5:55
Like, you weren't even thought of when he started.
BeccaGUEST
6:00
When he was done having children, you weren't even thought of by your own parents.
BeccaGUEST
6:04
[laughs]

51 MINS LATER

57:27
Bye bye.
BeccaGUEST
57:28
Bye, guys.
BeccaGUEST
57:28
[outro music]
11:43
Exactly
BeccaGUEST
11:43
... we, yeah, so I think we, you know, we, we make, you know, d- positive margins on these properties, and so we see that, and we see that, you know, we're paying off our mortgages diligently, our equity is raising, and, you know, we, we know it's, it's gonna help in the end with our financial independence journey, you know, to, to break away from traditional, you know, work environments in the future.
BeccaGUEST
12:07
But, you know, how, how is it-

13 MINS LATER

speaker_6UNKNOWN
25:24
You have good assets, you have other things, but do you wanna be a real estate investor?
BeccaGUEST
25:28
So I think I'm open to what it looks like because I do like the aspects of, like, end work.
BeccaGUEST
25:34
I'm a project manager, and the real estate investing and managing projects, whether that's flips or, you know, in our case, like a rehab for units, is very much like that.
BeccaGUEST
25:41
So I see potential in that, and I had thought about that very deeply, but now that we're, like, a little closer to where our investments are at, like over 500,000, I'm like, "Do I need to do that?" 'Cause to be honest, like, if I'm, if I told you, like, what my ideal day would be, it is not sitting in front of a computer all day.
BeccaGUEST
25:57
So real estate investing definitely has that draw of flexibility.
20:15

BeccaGUEST
20:16
Little Miss Recap will return in a moment.

[upbeat music] Vic takes her to campus.
BeccaGUEST
20:30
So cute.

33 MINS LATER

53:50
Mm, mm
BeccaGUEST
53:50
... like, what is he thinking when he's gonna watch these episodes? Like, I, I hope actually he watches these episodes and he's like, "Man, I need some help," and he comes to the reunion-
62:30
Becca, same question for you.
BeccaGUEST
62:32
Definitely some similarities, but yeah, I'll go from my own vision.
BeccaGUEST
62:35
Our friends have always had a vision of, like, living on land together but in our own separate houses.
BeccaGUEST
62:41
And so m- if I'm dreaming, my rich life is to have that house that Nikki's talking about within walking distance of s- at least a few of our closest friends, and that garden being a forest garden with fruit trees and berry bushes that you can walk through and find places to sit and just eat out of the garden.
BeccaGUEST
63:04
I want to take four specific types of trips per year.
BeccaGUEST
63:08
A ski trip in the winter, a cl- extended climbing trip somewhere new every year for a mission, a river trip like we just did, um, and a backpacking trip.
BeccaGUEST
63:24
And I wanna go on, like, a month-long climbing trip in Europe.

29 MINS LATER

NikkiGUEST
92:35
