Ben McDonaldHOST
23:16
I know.
RubyGUEST
23:16
I'm a bit mad at youAnd I've moved in out of every single-
Ben McDonaldHOST
29:28
I love it.
RubyGUEST
29:29
You, you like 10.And we show up and I'm, I don't know, there's just heaps of people.
RubyGUEST
31:01
I'm like, "Oh," like, "This is the pub crawl." I'm like, "Oh, hey," like, you know, "Who are you guys?" [laughs] Everyone knows everyone.
RubyGUEST
31:06
It wasn't, it was invite only.
RubyGUEST
31:08
[laughs] We just shown up.
RubyGUEST
31:11
We were like, "We're here for the pub crawl." And they're like a team, they're a team, and they're on their like Christmas- [laughs] "What are you, pub crawl?" And we'd just shown up [laughs] thinking like, we're invited.
5:12
Mm-hmm.
RubyGUEST
5:12
And then white onions.
RubyGUEST
5:14
We'll garnish with a little bit of green onion, and then we have our spicy sauce, and then just our shoyu.
5:31
Yes.
RubyGUEST
5:32
Um, growing up in just the farmers market in the truck has just been a really big blessing.
RubyGUEST
5:37
Um, I feel like I make friends every single week.
RubyGUEST
5:40
I'm meeting so many new people, and I've just grown up around Auntie Pamela.
MeganGUEST
36:28
The Tour de Farce is actually the reason I'm at the start line for the Highland Trail for the first time.
RubyGUEST
36:32
time.After spending a week traipsing across the Scottish Highlands surrounded by the energy and encouragement of inspiring people in awe of the terrain, having the most fun, I was totally convinced.
RubyGUEST
36:46
I'm most excited about the unknowns.
RubyGUEST
36:49
How am I going to feel? How will I react to limited sleep on such techy terrain? What's the weather going to do? How beautiful are the views going to be? As I think I am the only gravel bike this year, the biggest challenge for me personally will probably be the water bars.
RubyGUEST
37:08
I'll have to take them particularly carefully.
RubyGUEST
37:10
I love descending and can get quite carried away, so I will make, so I will be challenging myself to be cautious and make sensible decisions.
RubyGUEST
37:22
One piece of advice for future me would be to just remember that this is what I love doing, no matter how cold and wet I may be, that I am so lucky to be here.
DylanHOST
4:07
Sure.
RubyGUEST
4:07
And yeah.
RubyGUEST
4:09
I, I...
RubyGUEST
4:10
The big question now, and I'm actually not joking, is West is pretty mute in all of these things that have been leaked.
RubyGUEST
4:16
So it's like I don't know if he's like that because he's just being a little bitch, or if it's because he's mourning the death of his grandma.
RubyGUEST
4:23
Um, either way, brutal day for him.
RubyGUEST
4:26
And Amanda is just not very likable, I don't think-
DylanHOST
9:19
Uh-huh.
DianaGUEST
12:19
Has it always been like that?
RubyGUEST
12:21
Yes and no. We've always had a higher percentage of legit calls than other places, but it's really picked up recently.
RubyGUEST
12:30
And before you ask, no, no one really knows why, not for sure.
RubyGUEST
12:36
Uh, some of the field guys think they have a guess, but most of them are full of shit.

23 MINS LATER

DianaGUEST
35:38
O- okay.
RubyGUEST
35:39
I'm gonna have to hang up to do it.
RubyGUEST
35:42
And so I hear back, if you need to run, head somewhere with locks or keep running.
RubyGUEST
35:49
Do I have that?
4:09
Yeah
RubyGUEST
4:09
... you want to look at it.
RubyGUEST
4:10
It's funny, you know, when you're a first-time mom and Dr. Google becomes your best friend, and you look up to all the other people that have had babies and they all talk about this looming four-month regression, and I just remember thinking, "Oh, this is coming up for us." And up until that point, you know, she'd, she'd been waking sort of three to four times overnight, very biologically normal, I think, for that age, and I was so happy getting up and breastfeeding her and it was, you know, it was all going really well.
RubyGUEST
4:34
It started to become more of an issue when she hit that four-month mark, and, um, it was...
RubyGUEST
4:42
Firstly, it just became this nap refusal, and she would only nap for sort of half an hour.
RubyGUEST
4:47
Like, she was catnapping.
RubyGUEST
4:49
And then I thought, "Oh, that's okay.
8:15
And did that entail following a, a plan, or did you have a phone consult, or did you physically go and stay somewhere or...?
28:54
What do you think?
RubyGUEST
28:55
I'm so, so happy.
RubyGUEST
28:57
I've been awake since 4:30 in the morning today, out canvassing in Park Slope and Prospect Heights.
RubyGUEST
29:01
And we've been working towards this for a year, and I'm just so happy to win the New York City that we deserve.
29:07
What's your name? Where are you from?
RubyGUEST
29:09
My name's Ruby.
RubyGUEST
29:10
I live in Crown Heights.
RubyGUEST
29:12
Woo!
28:50
What do you think?
RubyGUEST
28:52
I'm so, so happy.
RubyGUEST
28:53
I've been awake since 4:30 in the morning today.
RubyGUEST
28:56
Out canvassing at Park Slope and Prospect Heights and we've been working towards this for a year, and I'm just so happy to win the New York City that we deserve.
29:03
What's your name, where are you from?
RubyGUEST
29:05
My name's Ruby, I live in Crown Heights.
0:31
It's actually pretty quiet around here today.
RubyGUEST
0:33
(Footsteps running) Molly! Molly! Oh my gosh!
1:04
Oh, yeah, (laughs) that lasagna takes forever to bake.
RubyGUEST
1:07
And then, a puff of glitter, an impish laugh, and...
RubyGUEST
1:13
You were put under a spell? What kind of spell?
