It's time to meet my brother, Robbie!
Do you mind getting up?
It's time to meet my older brother Robbie!
Introducing Robbie!
Welcome to the video.
Hey there.
If you follow me on Instagram, or if you've watched any videos on my personal YouTube
channel, you already know my older brother
Well you don't really know me.
You might know that he sings.
You might know that he's in a band.
You might know that he's cool.
My name's Robbie, I'm 28 years old.
I live in New York.
I play guitar, piano, sing.
I studied physics in college.
I've worked a few different industries, most recently in the music and entertainment, and
events and media space.
Now I'm going to business school.
All you need know.
Other thing you need to know.
He's single.
You didn't need to know that.
If you're single and live in New York, comment below.
Hit me up.
Hit him up.
@RobJFink.
Oh another thing about Robbie, he's got great hair, so you can't really see it cause it's
kind of gelled back right now.
But can I lift it up, and show them the length?
Just like look at how much hair, it goes off screen.
Jimmy Neutron.
Our days are very different.
I would say that we live very different lives.
Since I am going to business school in the fall, I quit my job in May.
And so in the past couple months, I've had a very unconventional kind of day to day
life.
I've been spending a lot of time outside,
playing a lot of music, getting ready for school.
So when Lucie was adopting my routine, the first thing we did was we cooked up a nice
omelet.
Let's get out our cutting boards.
You don't have a lot of counter space in here, do you?
It's a tight kitchen.
Good work, great, great cracking job.
I think we're getting a lot of shell in here.
It’ll cook off, don’t worry.
He says the egg shells will cook off.
I'm so hungry, you eat breakfast so late.
Shhh the eggs are cooking.
Shhh.
Why don't you tell them what else happened in the kitchen Rob?
Oh we had a spider incident.
You have a spider in your apartment.
Oh my gosh, Rob.
It may have led to, you know, slightly burnt eggs, but it was important.
We were
adopting my routine.
We had to do what I would do
if I found a spider in the kitchen.
We're gonna put your finger right there and we’re gonna lead him onto to you.
Oh no!
Robbie, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
Oh!
He’s in my hand.
Ah! Robert!
There, we got him, he's outside.
He's outside safe and sound.
I feel the web on me.
We're a spider friendly household.
They catch mosquitoes.
Would you rather a spider, or would rather wake up with mosquito bites all over your
body?
Mosquito bites.
That is large and in charge.
See that is beauty of eggs, they don't need to look good.
Yeah honestly, they don’t look good.
Ready?
Yeah why don't we plate these things.
This is yours.
There's some good omelet.
Here's some good omelet.
Great work.
I eat my eggs with a lot of hot sauce.
I know Lucie doesn't like to eat as much hot sauce.
So of course we had to challenge her to eat it the way I would eat it.
Keep it coming.
Cheers again.
Let's hope this is cooked.
I feel it back here.
So then, after we cooked up the breakfast, and had the spider incident, as I said I've
been trying to spend as much time outside as possible, given that it is the summer and
I'm not working.
So first we went up to the roof.
Welcome to the roof.
Wow.
This is so New York City.
We played some music.
But now I know, she’s cute but psycho,
cute but psycho.
It’s pretty and bright on your face.
Middle of the night at my place.
Screamin’ how I’m doing you wrong.
49 missed calls.
Pretty green eyes like waterfalls.
You only want me now that I’m gone.
Call 911 she’s cute but psycho.
And when we were done doing those two things, we did what Robbie has been doing a lot during
the evenings,
which is getting ready for business school.
Yes, there's a lot to be done, to get ready for school.
There's a lot of surveys to be done, a lot of forms to be sent in.
And so to make things a little more interesting, we poured ourselves two glasses of bourbon
on the rocks.
I know Lucie is not the biggest fan of alcohol, especially hard liquor, straight, so hopefully
that was interesting.
Cheers.
Eyes.
Bad luck to not look at someone in the eyes when you cheers.
Cheers.
Kind of tastes like horrible apple juice.
Like apple juice gone rancid.
There's a lot of stuff that I need to get ready for school.
Okay.
So this is the student website that is supposed to have the organized to-do list, and all
of that stuff.
There is a dashboard.
I’m paying rent anyway, but it’s going.
So you breathe in, take a sip, don't breathe in again, and breathe out of your mouth.
Don't use your nose.
Ahh.
That was a lot.
Woo!
Thank you.
Congrats.
I feel–
Is that your first glass of bourbon?
Amazing.
That was my first.
Nice and warm.
full glass of bourbon and it wasn't good.
But it's all gone.
That was a lot of fun, but it was very different than my daily routine,
which is a lot of mindfulness, and a little bit slower paced.
And includes some elements that he's not all too familiar with.
We actually met up right here at my apartment the next day, and we got started by doing
a mindfulness meditation right here on the bed actually.
Time to meditate.
This is one of my favorite recent meditations.
We’re just gonna play it.
Sit upright comfortably, shoulders down.
I'm very uncomfortable right now, for the record.
You are?
Deep breathing,
relax, try not to laugh.
Today I embrace my potential.
To be, to do, and have whatever I can dream.
Namaste.
Ummm.
How do you feel?
A new man.
Refreshed ready to take on the world.
Limitless!
Then after the meditation, we moved into the living room, and it was time for some morning
yoga.
But before we started the yoga, one thing I wanted just really, I thought it would be
fun
to see, is Robbie burning sage.
And it was not a letdown, I'll tell you that much.
It's all in the wrist.
Can you feel the energy being cleared?
Comment below and let me know if you feel your energy being cleared.
And then we did yoga.
Which was an interesting experience for him.
He's very much like Michael, in that he's not all that limber, and doesn't really bend
and flex easily.
Yeah you know I'm the kind of person who can't reach their toes,
but that being said, I've done yoga before.
I've done yoga with you.
I like it.
I think it's a good workout.
It really gets the blood flowing without needing to move around too much.
And it's hard, harder than you think.
I helped him get into some poses.
I even walked on his back.
Ah, oh yeah.
She cracked my back.
I think we got one or two solid cracks.
Not the best crack I’ve ever had, but a crack nonetheless.
You’re going to break my spine.
Yoga is done.
I don't want to get up.
Then we got out the juicer.
Let's make some juice.
We got a bunch of vegetables, and some fruit.
We got apple,
we got kale,
we got celery.
We got cucumber, lemon, and ginger.
One more.
Carrot.
And a carrot, how could I forget the good old carrot?
Oh there was one more thing.
You sure?
Romaine lettuce.
Lettuce.
We had all those things, we juiced them up, and we drank the juice.
Cheers.
Eye contact.
Cheers.
It's very intense.
I have to say it's not something I would normally drink, but the combination of flavors was
very different, and unexpected, but good.
I can't really drink any more of this.
And then the final thing that I had Robbie do was something that I do every night.
Usually I actually do it a little bit more extremely than we did it.
But I needed to simplify it for him.
So I walked him through my nighttime
You do more than that, usually?
wash up routine.
Yeah.
So I am gonna put this robe on.
I like to be comfy when I am washing up.
I brought you
your own silk robe.
Oh.
Great look.
I always take my hair into a high ponytail like this.
So I brought you one.
Oh wow, look at that hair.
Alright, let's do this.
Look.
Pull the hair out of the face.
Good job.
Great.
We look lovely.
This is out of control.
Alright it's time to wash our faces.
Simple.
Your turn.
Great.
How does your skin feel right now?
Refreshed, clean, stings a little bit.
We're gonna start with this chlorophyll gel.
Just really rub it there.
Oh my goodness.
Now we've got two oils, back to back.
This first is a deep pore cleansing oil.
It smells really good.
Ugh, god.
This is a lot to handle.
Okay the next oil is a little thinner and colder, so it feels really nice.
You put all this on your face every day?
Every single day.
And now this deep intense hydration moisturizer.
This is out of control.
Oh.
And then we just kind of let this soak in, overnight.
How did you like it?
It’s a little overwhelming.
Well, you're glowing.
Thank you.
Alright that's all.
Am I rubbed in?
Yup.
We did it.
Good job.
You look good, how did you feel doing all that?
So to be honest,
I'm someone who, I don't like putting a lot of things on my body especially on my face
when it comes to creams and lotions, and whatever those things were.
I'm particularly sensitive to extreme scents, and they sort of bother me a bit.
So it was an experience.
So definitely not something I would normally do.
But I will say that when all was said and done, my skin did feel very refreshed, very
you know, rejuvenated.
I'm still glowing.
Can you tell?
Yeah.
So after we finished that, it was the official end of us swapping routines.
You guys know from Try Living With Lucie, and all the other routine swapping videos
I've done that I love trying other people's routines, cause I think routines are a very
interesting thing.
We all get so set in our ways, and it's a great idea to get out there, shake things
up, see how other people live life.
And maybe try to incorporate some of their daily lives in things that they do into your
life.
We’ll do it again in the future.
We'll have you do my school homework,
we'll bring you to a recording session, and we'll smoke a joint.
Great.
