The US feels different now, and she's unsure how to describe the feeling.1:36 - 2:14: Different Frequencies"The birthplace of this world."James and T discuss how the United States feels very different than Europe.

You were there, too, right?"Both James and T describe the recharging effects of their respective times away. Both admit that returning to the US brings a sense of "weight" and anxiety. However, the feeling of safety abroad has helped T explore and trust herself more.3:38 - 4:55: Safety in the Unknown"That feeling safe has allowed me to start exploring and actually feeling who I am."T discusses the internal shift she experienced in Europe, feeling a sense of safety and freedom to explore her identity. In contrast, the US feels overwhelming, especially after being away for a while.4:55 - 5:38: Noise and Disconnect"All these old voices in my head."T talks about the internal noise she hears when she's back in the US. James confirms that he's noticed the same thing. T describes going camping with her parents, and how even though she loved the land, the noise was overpowering.5:39 - 7:04: The Search for Tranquility"I did have a picture in my head."T describes her initial expectations for the camping trip, looking for tranquility. However, the constant sound of cars and the noise of the environment didn't match her picture.7:04 - 7:35: Living the Experience"It took me weeks to kind of like, no, you lived the experience."T realizes it took a while to let go of her expectations and embrace the realities of the trip. James agrees, and how living in Amsterdam, they haven't heard a car pass by in weeks.7:36 - 8:37: Noise as a Signal"The noise that was in the background, now I notice it."James and T realize that the noise they're experiencing now is the "quiet" they didn't even notice before.8:38 - 9:54: White Noise and Subliminal Messages"It sounds like white noise."T describes the internal noise returning after being away, as well as the external "noise" of American society. The pair discuss the subliminal messages we're bombarded with, especially in the US.10:57 - 12:01: The Success Myth"Are you happy?"James describes how American culture emphasizes extrinsic values like possessions and wealth, which can lead to unhappiness and a sense of failing.12:01 - 12:57: Beyond the External"We just set ourselves up for failure."The pair continues to discuss the societal pressure and the disconnect from our true selves.
