The following podcast is a Dear Media Production.
Princess
Oh, my gosh.
Bretman Rock
Hurry up, everybody. Get to class. You're late.
Princess
I can't believe this is our last subject.
Bretman Rock
I know. And we're gonna be back to regular programming after this. And we saved the best for last, which is Home ec. Period. Princess, do you have home egg classes that you remember that were useful to this day?
Princess
Yes, I do. I had the. The typing class. The computer class.
Bretman Rock
Yes.
Princess
And I also.
Bretman Rock
I forgot his name, but he was so strict. I hated that class.
Princess
But that was my homeroom, too.
Bretman Rock
Oh, period. He was a main. I forgot his name. Let's not say his name. His gear. I don't want to get in trouble, but if you went to Ilima Intermediate School, you guys probably know who we're talking about. Girl, he wasn't mean. Like, he was a great teacher. He was really just intense. He's strict, but he liked me. Do I know how to type without looking at my keyboard now? Yes. That class was probably my most useful class.
Princess
Same.
Bretman Rock
Another useful class that I loved taking was yearbook. I don't know if that counts as home ec, but, like, yearbook, she was the best class for me. Like, it. It really helped me exercise, like, my communication skills. Like, because I had to interview people, I had to write essays. It was a lot. And take pictures. So it was a lot of my favorite things in the world.
Princess
I can see that with you. Your book. Like, I feel like, the way you speak, like, you're really good at, like, what you saying.
Bretman Rock
Yeah, I ate. Girl. I also would say it was not part of home ec, but student council. Loved. I loved being in student council and, like, being in charge of, like, you know, my grade. My grade school.
Princess
I also had. I believe I had Spanish for homeic.
Bretman Rock
I never had, like, language besides Japanese, and that was in seventh grade. I suck, though, period. Kat, what does home EC mean?
Ms. Kat
It means equipping individuals for independent living. So basically getting your high schoolers ready for adulthood, period.
Bretman Rock
And with that being said, cue the intro. Bratman to Earth. Earth to Bratman. Girl, you already know who it is. And we're back. Princess, you were saying something.
Princess
So I feel like one good home EC class should have been, like, taxes, Business.
Bretman Rock
Well, yeah, I took business. That was really cool. I was gonna say business was very helpful, but my teacher, he was just a little too cool. I had, like, kind of like one of those, like. I don't know how to describe it, girl. Like, I. I loved him. He was a really great teacher, but I felt like he was too cool. To a point where, like, I didn't really feel like I learned a lot when it comes to business.
Princess
So you guys did business, like, with your taxes and stuff?
Bretman Rock
Yeah, so I learned, like, the, like, how to start a business and stuff and taxes. Like, we learned a little bit about that. But like I said again, like, I feel like he. I wish he went in more when it came to down to it, because I feel like I didn't learn that much things besides, like, the basic knowledge of business, which I feel like I already learned just from, like, growing up with the parents that we had that were business.
Princess
I feel like I would have really enjoyed that class. I didn't make it that far in school, period.
Bretman Rock
And, like, every episode, Mrs. Cat prepped us some questions. And these are all just, like, random different types of home EK classes. And yeah, I hope there is some that I know because I feel like I. One. One class that I wish I took was woodwork.
Princess
Oh, wow.
Bretman Rock
I tried making, like, bird nest. Yes. The other day. Well, not bird nest. Chicken nest the other day. And girl, it was so hard figuring that out and, like, having to cut, but also just, like, the safety of woodwork. I feel like I'm risking my life every time I bring out the saw. So. Yeah. What is one home EC class that you wish you had taken?
Ms. Kat
Business.
Bretman Rock
Oh, yeah, yeah, you said that. I also think automotives would have been nice to do.
Princess
Oh, like car.
Bretman Rock
Like learning how to drive, like, no, car. Like learning car, period.
Princess
Oh, like being, like a car mechanic.
Bretman Rock
Yeah. Mechanical.
Princess
Yeah.
Bretman Rock
Because I could not tell you how to start to even change an oil period. Anyways, with that being said, teacher Cat hit us for the very last time. Wait, while she's looking for hitting. Hitting us. That just reminded me. Do you remember going to school in high in the Philippines and, like, being hit?
Princess
No, I never went to school in the Philippines.
Bretman Rock
Oh, God.
Princess
A year and a half.
Bretman Rock
You missed out, like, in. I don't. I. I know they don't do this anymore when K12 was introduced. But in. When I was in. In elementary school in the Philippines, I went there for first and second grade and beginning schools, obviously, like, kindergarten, preschool. But the teachers would literally punish you if you got, like, answers wrong. So, like, some of the forms of punishments were, like, you have to go like this. This means, like, what you guys don't think. It's, like, not the major look, but, like, for example, we had, like, hygiene as one of our curriculars, and, like, our nails couldn't be long. And. And if your nails were Long. And the teachers could see it. You had to go like this and that. They would hit you with, like, a mallet. And that would fucking hurt. Especially if your nails were long or they would do that. Whenever you would get answers wrong, they would do the typical pulling of the ear or, like hitting you in the butt. But if you were really, really naughty, they would make you kneel on mango beans and they would put salt in it. Oh, and you had to carry books like this.
Princess
And like, I remember the books. I remember the books, but I don't remember.
Bretman Rock
Girl, we got hit. And then, not only that, you all. We also had to stay back every after school on Fridays to clean the whole school.
Princess
That'd be. That's crazy. Like, girl, not the students bullying each other, but this.
Bretman Rock
The teacher bullying you now, literally, girl, the teachers bullied us.
Princess
Oh, my God, but your drinks look so good. What is yours?
Bretman Rock
Oh, today's drink is a Strawberry Dragon fruit refresher with four blueberry shots and a black tea.
Princess
Oh, okay. So mine's just a Strawberry Dream Strawberry Dragon. So basically, I think it's the Sabrina's drink, but this one is with four hazelnut shot and a oat milk. Really good.
Bretman Rock
I think we're finishing off strong because this is my favorite one that I feel like I've taken. I would like, because you guys want to try this? It's the Strawberry Dragon fruit refresher flu. Four blueberry shots and black tea.
Princess
Did I say that?
Ms. Kat
No.
Bretman Rock
If you're driving right now, swerve to Duncan and get this.
Princess
Swerving.
Bretman Rock
Hit us with home economic questions and hit me hard, because this is the last episode.
Ms. Kat
Alrighty. So I'm just gonna do them randomly. Okay.
Bretman Rock
Okay.
Ms. Kat
What is a budget?
Bretman Rock
A budget. Oh, so this is a business question.
Ms. Kat
Yeah.
Bretman Rock
A budget is. It's hard to define budget because I feel like I can only describe budget by saying budget. But like, your set limit on something, like a limit, you set like a budget, you set a limit. Like a spending limit. Basically.
Princess
Essentially, it's a commitment of a certain amount.
Bretman Rock
Okay.
Princess
Big quantity of something. Somewhat.
Bretman Rock
Okay.
Ms. Kat
Cute. I think it's a variety of both of y'. All. So it's managing your money, tracking your income, tracking your expensive. Ensuring you don't spend more than you make.
Bretman Rock
I feel like that's budgeting. But budget. When I first. When I hear budget, it's like, what's your budget? You know what I mean?
Ms. Kat
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bretman Rock
But I feel like what you describe is more like budgeting.
Princess
Yeah, like budgeting.
Bretman Rock
The act of Budget.
Princess
Yeah, Keeping track of.
Bretman Rock
I don't even know what I just said, but period.
Ms. Kat
Okay.
Bretman Rock
Some of us need to budget, though, honestly.
Ms. Kat
Yeah, me.
Bretman Rock
Me as fuck. Especially this month. Oh, my gosh.
Ms. Kat
We're all in that same girl.
Princess
You went.
Bretman Rock
My business manager watching this like, well, you need to listen.
Princess
Listening to yourself with your three Birk.
Bretman Rock
Oh, don't tell them that it's three Birkins and a Kelly Princess.
Ms. Kat
Get it. Right, right. Okay. Who. Who got that? I don't even know.

Ms. Kat
Okay, let's see. Let's do a nutrition one. What are the importance of a healthy diet?
Bretman Rock
What are the. Why are they important? Or what are the importance.
Ms. Kat
What are the importance. Like, why? Well, it's like, why, like, why is it important to have a healthy diet?
Bretman Rock
Would you like to go first?
Princess
Why is it important to have. Oh, one, to keep yourself healthy, period. Two. Girl, that's all I got.
Bretman Rock
Well, I think the importance of a healthy diet is truly just so that you're healthy overall. Like your mind, body and soul is healthy, but also just like if you're allergic to things and like, knowing that is also really good. But what is even a healthy diet? You know what I mean? Because I feel like a healthy diet looks for looks. I mean, this is me asking the teacher now, like, girl, what is a healthy diet? I feel like it's different for everybody. Body types, body period. Because we're all allergic to things. We all have different body types. We all have. Our bodies have different means. You know what I mean?
Princess
Yeah. So, yeah, keeping your body healthy and where your body can, like, grow in a.
Bretman Rock
But consciously, when I hear that. But consciously. What the fuck am I saying? But when I first heard what you asked, my mind is. Goes to like, being conscious of what you're putting into your body. That's what I would say is a.
Ms. Kat
Healthy diet for sure. So on here, what they made it very clear was for disease prevention, like cancers artery, like, you know that type. And also, weight management is a big thing. You get increased energy because food is fuel.
Bretman Rock
Right, right.
Ms. Kat
And improve your mood because it goes with mental health.
Princess
Okay, got it, got it.
Ms. Kat
So, yeah, I think you guys hit that a little bit.
Bretman Rock
I feel like. I feel like you are more asking of why it's good. Yeah, but it's okay.
Princess
She did say why, though.
Bretman Rock
I know that's what I'm saying. And I didn't really.
Princess
I don't think we.
Bretman Rock
I was more like, defining it than saying why.
Princess
Well, to keep yourself healthy.
Ms. Kat
Period.
Princess
Oh, okay. I learned something today. Thank you, Ms. Kat.
Ms. Kat

Bretman Rock
Why? I'm. I'm literally having a brain fart. Like, literally.
Ms. Kat

Bretman Rock
Okay.
Ms. Kat
Okay, so we have the recurring payments, which would be like the same amount. Subscriptions will be under miscellaneous. More. I don't pay, so more. No, miscellaneous. That's under, like, non essential. So more like your mortgage, your car, same amount every month.

Bretman Rock
Okay.
Ms. Kat
For household management, why do you separate darks and lights?
Princess
Oh, princess me. Oh, God.
Bretman Rock
You separate darks and lights because a bleach goes into the lights, and if you put bleach with the dark, it'll, you know, obviously light in the dark. And it's just like, the bleeding, the colors. Like, you don't want to bleed the colors into the light colored ones. That's what I. That's why I separate them.
Ms. Kat
Yeah. So it helps prevent bleeding, period.
Bretman Rock
I would also suggest. May I suggest separating them into threes? Because that's what we do in this household. We do white, colored, and black.
Princess
Of course. Who does not know the black is.
Ms. Kat
With, like, dark brown or dark blues?
Bretman Rock
Some dark grays in there, but yeah, yeah. And then silks as the fourth one. Sorry.

Bretman Rock
I've written checks before, and I literally get, like, sweaty palms every time I write a check because I'm like, oh, my. I feel like I'm gonna do it wrong. And my mom made it seem like you had one chance.
Ms. Kat
Yeah.
Bretman Rock
Because you have to pay if you, like, were to rip out a check. Like, this is what my mom said. If you were to rip out a check, you have to pay for it. And I'm like, what.
