Chapter 1: What is the theme of the episode?

133.024 - 139.731 John Smith

I'm a snake. I'm a slithery, slithery snake. Are you a snake? No, that's an audio.

0

139.991 - 151.242 Morgan

Apparently, if you don't make the change right now at this New Year's juncture, going to a different direction, then you will be another 12 years repeating what you just did the last 12 years.

0

151.843 - 166.929 John Smith

I am having the craziest deja vu. I think we've been... We've been here before. And I probably say this, like, please, can you tell me where this deja vu is coming from in a past episode? But yeah, the Chinese zodiac stuff is, it's powerful.

0

167.97 - 168.65 Morgan

Chinese animal.

0

169.731 - 170.892 John Smith

Okay. What year are you?

171.472 - 176.036 Morgan

Me? Oh, I'm 1957. I know what I am.

176.876 - 184.54 John Smith

I'm the year of the dog, 1994. 1994. So my friend actually- Loyalty, reliability, and a sense of justice.

184.78 - 192.143 Morgan

And by the way, apparently- If that ain't me. I got a better one for you. Apparently, you find your mate from your Chinese animal.

192.543 - 192.824 John Smith

Yeah.

Chapter 2: How do you recognize a relationship at a crossroads?

499.325 - 499.826 John Smith

Absolutely.

0

500.166 - 505.429 Morgan

And you know the difference. We don't even have to pretend. We know what the difference is.

0

505.649 - 516.916 John Smith

You will definitely know. I've had boyfriends in the past that would disappear every weekend and their excuse was, oh, I'm up in Canada. I don't have great phone service.

0

516.936 - 518.176 Jane Doe

It's all the bullshit.

0

518.216 - 542.33 John Smith

You're in Canada, not Antarctica. And when you start dating someone, and for me, that person was Justin, that genuinely likes you, it's shocking. I remember directly sitting down with a friend and being like, is this what it feels like when someone likes you? Like you feel the difference. So don't be with people that don't even like you. Don't do it.

542.99 - 544.251 Morgan

I think we got that one covered.

544.351 - 546.512 John Smith

That's crossroad. You're turning. You're gone.

547.415 - 551.078 Morgan

Move on down the road, baby. We're going to move to number two.

551.378 - 552.019 John Smith

Number two.

Chapter 3: What should you do if you're being ghosted?

2852.758 - 2853.038 Morgan

Really?

0

2853.058 - 2853.999 John Smith

That sounds really good.

0

2854.219 - 2855.761 Morgan

We can do that because I have to go to Costco.

0

2855.981 - 2857.402 John Smith

There we go. Let's get these stories done.

0

2857.442 - 2860.625 Morgan

Let's go. One more. Let's knock it out. We're on number five.

2861.277 - 2870.283 John Smith

Hi, THT and FKS family. I got hooked on THT this year. And when I binged through all of those episodes, I started FKS. And I love it just as much.

2870.523 - 2871.063 Morgan

You do.

2871.363 - 2872.864 John Smith

If not more.

2873.585 - 2874.986 Morgan

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
