Whisper Transcript | Transcript Only Page

00:00:00.000 | How do we decide who does what around the house?
00:00:02.800 | Amy, what do you say?
00:00:04.240 | - This is Chris's segue to try to get credit
00:00:07.280 | for all of the work that he does.
00:00:09.120 | Because I would say Chris leads a lot of our digital life
00:00:12.640 | and I lead a lot of our physical life.
00:00:14.580 | And so it kind of breaks down that way.
00:00:17.240 | But in all reality, I don't know that we necessarily
00:00:21.700 | have conquered this whole,
00:00:24.440 | how do we divide household responsibilities?
00:00:27.920 | I think there are natural divisions of responsibility
00:00:31.760 | that just naturally, I actually very much enjoy
00:00:34.720 | doing laundry, it's therapeutic for me.
00:00:36.920 | You manage a lot of the financial stuff
00:00:39.520 | or having to call banks and deal with payment stuff
00:00:41.960 | because honestly, it's my nightmare.

00:00:46.000 | Understanding those things and funneling
00:00:49.720 | those responsibilities where maybe one person enjoys it
00:00:53.240 | or where doesn't find it to be such a burden
00:00:55.960 | makes a lot more sense than trying to equally split 50/50.
