My name is Jack, and today I'm here with my co-host, Social and social. What are your when you fly somewhere, what are your necessities like? What are your travel necessities? What must you have when?00:00:31JackYou get on that plane.00:00:33JackTo make the the.00:00:34JackThe trip the the most comfortable it can be.00:00:38XochitlUM.00:00:40XochitlYou know Jack.00:00:42XochitlI'm kind of like just to suffer.00:00:43XochitlThrough the flight kind of person, I'm.00:00:45XochitlNot really picky.00:00:49XochitlMy trip, but I guess a couple things I absolutely have to have are a cell phone, obviously for entertainment purposes my earphones so I can listen.00:01:04XochitlTo music or what?00:01:06XochitlAnd uh, a book or like my laptop just so I can read or just do some work or like something while I'm on the plane. And I always take try to take something to cover up like a a hoodie, a jacket, a shrug because it gets really cold on an airplane.00:01:26XochitlAnd UM.00:01:28XochitlI remember this one time. I was like, I traveled in a T-shirt and I was absolutely freezing my arms off and.00:01:39XochitlI was. I was dying. It was so cold.00:01:43XochitlAnd I asked the lady, hey, can you can I can I get a blanket because they give them pants and she said no, that's only for first.00:01:50XochitlClass and there.00:01:51XochitlWere literally no passengers like on this plane. It was just like me and like two other people I don't.00:01:56XochitlKnow why there?00:01:56XochitlWere so few.00:01:57XochitlPeople, but they wouldn't give me a blanket.00:02:00발표자UM.00:02:02XochitlBut you just I, you know, I don't really like the whole first class distinction anyway. It's just so stupid and.00:02:10XochitlThat jerk behavior made me like it just made me so mad, but I was like, I'll never get on an airplane without something to cover up because I was literally so cold I had to put my arms inside my shirt.00:02:20XochitlBecause I just couldn't handle how.00:02:21JackYeah, I was going to ask you, did you do the old inside the shirt move? Because that's pretty much all you can do at that point. Otherwise you're just going to be so uncomfortable.00:02:31XochitlYeah, it was bad. Like my fingers were like stiff from how cold it was.00:02:35JackWow. Yeah, that's terrible. And I can't believe they wouldn't give you a blanket. That's nuts.00:02:41XochitlYou throw these out anyway. Come on, just give.00:02:43XochitlMe one or whatever like.00:02:44JackI think I've.00:02:45JackTaken I've stolen like 20 of them by now, you know.00:02:50XochitlI know a lot.00:02:50JackLike when I'm all over my house.00:02:51발표자Of places.00:02:53XochitlYeah, I know it's crazy airlines. They get cheaper and cheaper every like the flight gets more and more expensive, but the airline itself cuts costs every possible way every year.00:03:03JackYeah, the the seeds get closer together and just slowly, all this stuff is happening and yeah.00:03:08XochitlThat's spring beans. Yep.00:03:13JackMy travel necessity is the same. I I have to have a hoodie like I always travel with a hoodie no matter what. Because like you said, if you get cold, I just throw the hoodie up over my my head and cinch it down and just kind of disappear into my clothes. I don't. Does that make sense?00:03:33XochitlYes it does.00:03:33JackIt's like it's like a shield, you know? It's like I don't wanna deal with I I don't wanna be sitting next to somebody. I'm already cramped in there. I have to have my phone. I have to have headphone.00:03:46JackI am because I you. I will listen to podcasts. That's my, you know, as a podcaster, I'm also a huge podcast fan. I probably listened to 15 or 20 different podcasts, a lot of true crime. And so I'll have a whole bunch queued up for a flight, and I'll kind of listen to them.00:04:08JackThroughout the flight at certain times.00:04:10JackTo just kind of.00:04:12JackKill that you know, because I'm usually flying 1516 hour flights. Right. I'm going back to America from South Korea, which is on the other side of the of the.00:04:22JackEarth. So it's really a long flight and you, I need those little treats. That little podcast episode.00:04:23발표자Right.00:04:31JackAnd here and there to to keep me sane. I also will bring a neck pillow. I find that because otherwise your head is kind of is not. It's kind of like a bobble head. Your your head is kind of loosey Goosey.00:04:51JackSo when you fall asleep.00:04:53JackSitting up your head will kind of like your neck will kind of like snap. You know one side or the other, but a neck pillow will.00:05:02JackKeep your your.00:05:03JackNeck stationary, so you can actually sleep with your your. You could sleep sitting up and so I think the neck pillow is a really is a really.00:05:13JackA big one.00:05:13JackFor me, so neck pillow electronic device. I usually don't mess with my computer because I'm too tall.00:05:20JackAll, and there's no way I can get my computer on my lap and comfortably use my computer so.00:05:27XochitlWhy don't you just put it?00:05:28XochitlOn the tray table in front of you.00:05:29JackBecause because my knees.00:05:31JackAre so tight that I can't get the tray table to go flat.00:05:35XochitlRight cause you're like 6 like.00:05:37JackI'm 68 well.00:05:39JackI I shrunk I'm 6-7, I just got measured and now I'm I'm shorter than I was before.00:05:45XochitlThat's insanely tall anyway 6.00:05:47JackYeah, 6-7 is still. I'm still a giant so.00:05:50JackI can't even get the tray and if somebody moves their chair back in front of me, forget about.00:05:55JackIt they're gonna.00:05:56JackBreak my computer. You know, it'll get, like, smashed, like a like a sandwich. So.00:06:04JackYeah, I mean, those are the, those are my, those are my big ones. You know I I gotta have, uh, I gotta have an electronic device to play with and I've gotta have my neck pillow and my hoodie and comfortable shoes that can be slipped off and on easily, you know. No boots.00:06:24JackI would never do that on a.00:06:26JackRight. I don't know how do you feel about taking shoes off on a flight? Are you anti that or?00:06:34XochitlIt's like I would if it weren't, I would if it weren't like I don't agree with doing it, but I wish like I kind of wish I could. I don't know how to explain this. It's like I feel really.00:06:50XochitlLike ohh God, how do I?00:06:53JackLike impolite or or like that, like poor etiquette.00:06:57XochitlWould feel like such.00:06:58XochitlLike a like a jerk. And it would be gross like to to just like, have my feet out. But if it were for my own comfort, I would definitely like take my shoes off and then just like cross my feet if there's no one else. Like next to me in any of the seats. Then I do like I sometimes will take my shoes off and just like cross.00:07:16XochitlMy feet in.00:07:18XochitlCross my legs.00:07:19JackYeah, I would never put my feet up on anything with my, with my socks or anything like that or God forbid, my bare feet. You know that, I mean.00:07:27발표자Oh, God no.00:07:27JackThat's they're so, you know, people clipping their.00:07:28XochitlThat's nice.00:07:30JackNails on the flights and.00:07:32JackAnd all kinds of just nasty stuff, you know, I mean, people, the bad behavior that I've seen on flights is ridiculous.00:07:42JackI do think I think I have slipped my my shoes off UM a few times and just crossed my feet like you said, kept them under the, you know, the.00:07:52JackHeat, but generally speaking I I guess I don't really do that that much. I usually just wear really comfortable shoes.00:08:01JackSo I don't have to.00:08:03XochitlYeah, I wear comfy shoes too, but then, like, sometimes your feet get hot or, like, get just uncomfortable for some reason. And I just, like, take my shoes off, but obviously not like if I knew my feet smelled bad or something, but thankfully they don't stink. And then I just would slip my feet off, slip my shoes off sometimes, but I definitely don't really do that anymore. I think when I was younger.00:08:03발표자If you have that here.00:08:23XochitlLike when I was a kid, I would.00:08:25XochitlDo it more.00:08:25XochitlOften because I just really hated the sensory feeling of like wearing shoes.00:08:31XochitlBut as I've gotten older, I'm kind of over it, so I'm OK with that, but.00:08:39JackAlright, well, I think we had good, good, we.00:08:42JackHave a good.00:08:42JackList I think.00:08:45XochitlYeah.
