Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
I like your Lisa Gilroy impersonation.
Oh, my God. I forgot about that.
Was that on an episode or was that Patreon? I was with you in this chair when I did it. I can't remember what it was for, though. I don't think I could replicate it. It was so good. It's actually one of the better impersonations I think I've heard.
Thank you for saying that. Thank you.
You don't want to try? No, not right now.
But, like, guys, you know, stay tuned because it'll happen one day. Maybe it'll come back to you.
Here we go, everyone.
It's going to be a good episode. I'm excited. I know. I was like, where have you been? Bella, where have you been, loca? It's so funny because it's been, what, like a month and a half? But that feels like a long time. That's actually...
That's insane. I know. That's insane. Oh my gosh. Yeah. I'm like, I've just been, I don't even know what I've been doing. Hospital. You've been having an awful week. Not to speak for you. No, it's like, I'm still not right.

Chapter 2: What health issues are mentioned and how do they affect the speaker?
You know what I mean? But if you're saying the hot food might increase one of the cancers, I can't be taking that into account. I know.
I saw something about nerds too. Nerds candy. If you eat more than like 2000 pieces a year, you're at an unsafe arsenic level. Arsenic? Something crazy. How do nerds have arsenic? I'm going to fact check this. I believe you. I believe you. But I'm glad you are. Just in case. So there's an article that just came out. More than 20 popular candies tested positive for toxic levels of arsenic.
I thought that this was something we left in the 90s. Dude, it's insane. Like, Black Forest gummy bears, Laffy Taffy, nerds, nerd clusters.
They can't keep getting away with this.
I'm just like, it's everything good. I love candy. It's like, it's literally everything good.
But if I were to get nerds in another country, perhaps, ones that put less things into them, would it be different? We should do some research. We should.
We should do some research.
We should have a separate podcast.
I've wanted to start down the rabbit hole back up. I love that idea.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of gut health discussed?
But also there's some little freaks out there. Yeah. There's some little freaks.
And you always, I think it's so special to find that still in this day and age to still be surprised. Oh, you know what I mean? Yeah. Every week I'm like, surely we've seen it all. At this point, there's no way nothing can shock me anymore.
I mean, you sent me the title of the story you found. Yeah. You guys just wait. Just wait. I literally, my jaw dropped. I put my ACOTAR book down. Spoiler alert. If you haven't read ACOTAR, skip a minute. I'm on number three, baby. We made it. Fuck Tamlin. I'm just like, I don't. She just got back from the spring court. Spoiler, spoiler. I know. Okay, wait. That's like a huge. I know. Okay.
I had to stop to record the spoiler, but I'm just like, oh my God, it's so good. Now I'm warring. I'm warring with like where my heart lies though. Well, you don't know if you like fourth wing or ACOTAR better.
I know.
I don't know.
Wow. Yeah. It's definitely fourth wing for me, but I feel like most people I talk to like ACOTAR more.
It's really, it is really, really good. And then people are like, you'll love Throne of Glass even more. So I'm excited to keep reading. I actually downloaded Goodreads. And when I get a little time this weekend, I'm going to make my account. I'm so excited to be friends with you on Goodreads. I don't read very like regularly, though. I go through binges.
You might be back in it now, though. Okay. This feels like a current era for you.

Chapter 4: What is the significance of the 'Cheetah Room' story?
So people are contributing a lot of rules. A really tiny museum-style roped-off area right in front of it.
Oh, yeah, that'd be amazing.
With a framed copy of the rules on the wall outside the room. Maybe a red carpet. Ooh. Yeah. That goes well with Cheetah. Mm-hmm. That's true. Someone says, no flash photography out of respect for all of the visitors.
Well, obviously no phones.
mm-hmm that's already a rule so thank you flash photography feels like more i don't know litigious like it feels more formal polaroids only yeah yeah like this is basically the louvre like no flash photography can't disturb the art but okay i just loved it i love the little picture i'd also like it if they could add some kind of
Maybe like activity or ritual that only can happen in the cheetah room. Ooh. Like, I don't know, when they do their fantasy football draft, it has to happen in the cheetah room.
In the cheetah room.
Or like, you know, I feel like it could become a part of more than just being there with rules. Like they could incorporate it into tradition. I like this. I like this a lot. Yeah, I don't know.
Cheetah Room could, this could become a big hit. He could sell tickets to the Cheetah Room. Yes. Sell those tickets. Yes. Okay, moving on to this next one. This is coming from AITAH. It is titled, Am I the Asshole for Sucking on My Partner's Ziploc? I know. I work from home and I make my partner sandwiches to take for lunch.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of not displaying a daughter-in-law's artwork?
That behavior is weird. Yeah. Quit pushing. Again, I do get seeing it in the garage and being, like, disappointed and sad and a little hurt by that. Of course. I think that that's a very normal reaction to have to it. I just think that you have to kind of have an awareness if you make something for someone, like... I'm taking a risk here. I hope that they like it.
I'm doing this because I want them to be happy. And if having this isn't going to make them happy, then they shouldn't use it. Because then why am I getting them something?
Chapter 6: How should one handle family dynamics regarding personal art?
Then it's for me and not for them.
Yeah. Top comment. Not the asshole. When you give someone a gift of artwork that you made yourself and you don't see your artwork hanging up, that should be enough of a clue. There isn't really a polite way to tell someone, thank you for giving this to me, but I'd really rather you keep it because there's no way I'm ever going to hang it up in my house. She found it in the garage.
You told her you did not have a place for it, and that should have been sufficient for her to get the hint. Continuing to insist that she herself was going to help find a place to hang it was rude and invasive. Why are we not okay with mother-in-laws telling daughter-in-laws how to decorate, but suddenly we're okay with daughter-in-law deciding how the mother-in-law should decorate?
If this person is old enough to be married, she is old enough to have the maturity to recognize that not everyone on the planet is going to enjoy her work. Mother-in-law wasn't rude in the least, but as soon as daughter-in-law tried overruling her and insisted on finding a place to hang it, daughter-in-law absolutely crossed a line.
Yeah.
12K upvotes.
It's also very understandable for someone to just not like your art style. I feel like that's something that artists understand and know. Like you could have a family member who's like, you know what, I'm not interested in podcasts. And you'd be like, all right. Cool. You know what I mean? Like you have to. Hearing my own voice is annoying too sometimes. I don't love editing.
I think a lot of people who create something know like, oh, this isn't for everyone. But that doesn't mean that it's completely devalued to them that I do it. Especially with art. It's in the eye of the beholder. Yeah.
Yeah. We don't have any other updates yet from OP. OP even says like, it doesn't matter if my son painted like this. I wouldn't put it up. Actually, I would have a conversation about why he is drawing women like this. Why are you painting women like Jessica Rabbit? And I get it's a style. Whatever.

Chapter 7: What are the consequences of ignoring a partner's emotional needs?
Reach out and apologize for the fact that she had to, like, see it in the garage and just be like, but again, there really isn't a place. We just downsized. It's not the style of what we have in the house. It doesn't blend with what we have. It doesn't mean that I don't think you're very talented.
Exactly. I appreciate your talents as an artist. Yeah. I just, you know, it's not my style. Yeah. It's not that I hate your art. It's just not my style. But I think you have talent. Yeah. Amazing job. I love seeing it in your home. Yeah. It's just not our vibe. Can't wait to support you at a gallery opening. Yes.
Chapter 8: How can one effectively communicate boundaries in a relationship?
OP does add that she's 29. She doesn't need baby gloves. I wasn't even mean. I literally just said, quote, I'm not a fan of the artwork.
Yeah.
But I think it's the umbrella statement of it all that like kind of is like, but are your feelings valid? If you want to say that, are you entitled? Yeah. But again, like I am in the boat of more flies with honey than vinegar. Yeah. And like I think people just overall like kind of realize how you're talking to people. People need to do that a little bit more.
Yeah. I don't like your art style is a little harsh.
Very clearly, the moment that mattered most is OP getting into this new house of theirs and picking art that mattered to them. But if they would have prepared a little bit more about how to have a conversation with their daughter-in-law about the art, or maybe just hid it better... all of this could have potentially been avoided? I don't know. What do you guys think?
Obviously, big life moments can come with a lot of change. But when you take the time to prepare, like talking with a State Farm agent, you can set yourself up for whatever may come next. Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. Thanks, State Farm! This is coming from Am I the Asshole? It is titled, Am I the Asshole for not supporting my husband quitting his business to become a doctor?
Oh God, that's a long journey.
As someone with a brother who is a doctor.
You're a great guest for this. Thank you.
