Value of Face to Face Meetings
Transcript:
Jack Butala: Jack and Jill here.
Jill DeWit: Hello.
Jack Butala: Welcome to the Jack and Jill show. I'm Jack Butala.
Jill DeWit: I'm Jill DeWitt. Broadcasting this week from sunny Southern California where 60 degrees is a tad cold for the locals.
Jack Butala: Oh my God.
Jill DeWit: Have you noticed that?
Jack Butala: This weather is something else. It's cold for me.
Jill DeWit: Oh my goodness.
Jack Butala: I grew up in a tundra in Michigan. This is amazing to me. You know what I've noticed about the weather here? There are four seasons, period. Right?
Jill DeWit: That's true.
Jack Butala: Unlike Arizona where there's two but they're just a lot more mild. So, you get the changing of the, you get the fall and the winter and the rainy season and the summer and the spring.
Jill DeWit: It's true.
Jack Butala: Not necessarily in that order but they're so much more mild. In the Midwest it's just ice. Everything freezes. The ground freezes. The water freezes and then in the summer you can even breathe it's so hot.
Jill DeWit: Right and sticky and humid and all that.
Jack Butala: The pendulum swings so much further there.
Jill DeWit: I think it's hilarious because our kid number three who has lived his whole life in Arizona is now, now found himself in Southern California and he's, he's kind of a wimp when it comes to the temperature. I don't know if you've noticed that, Jack.
Jack Butala: I want to put him out in the cold and see what happens, like in the Michigan cold.
Jill DeWit: It's kind of funny. He's like this is, but it's 90 and 90 degrees in Scottsdale and it's 65 here and he's like freezing and this is ridiculous.
Jack Butala: I wonder if there's any truth to that old saying like, warm weather thins your blood out?
Jill DeWit: Oh, I don't know.
Jack Butala: I wonder if there's any real truth.
Jill DeWit: I do think that it takes different people different lengths of time to get acclimated.
Jack Butala: Yeah.
Jill DeWit: You know, for me it took me a long time to get acclimated to the heat in Arizona.
Jack Butala: Did you ever really get acclimated to it?
Jill DeWit: Not really. Well, you know, yes I did. I think at the end there I really did.
Jack Butala: You knew it was over, maybe?
Jill DeWit: Well, just getting in my car wasn't so much of a drastic event as it was when I first moved there. When I ...
Jack Butala: Jill used, Jill used to carry a pair of oven mitts.
Jill DeWit: Oh, my goodness. I'd have towels ... Yeah.
Jack Butala: This car she has now has a wooden steering wheel.
Jill DeWit: Yeah. This ...
Jack Butala: Not because it's a Model T. Just because it's you know, got a wooden steering wheel for accent, for interior accent but she would wear oven mitts to start the car and drive around.
Jill DeWit: I used to right, when I first moved from Southern California to Arizona and the heat was like, what and you'd, I'd have to, you know you'd wear shorts and you'd get in the car and you'd have leather seats?
Jack Butala: Yeah.
