1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:16,399
Made us have pace, sunny sune
on, I haveasione n Hey, everybody,

2
00:00:16,559 --> 00:00:19,760
welcome to you for crying out loud. It's me stuck me a little

3
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,519
strange voice, but for the best
reason. I'm here with my one of

4
00:00:24,559 --> 00:00:31,440
my besties and somebody that is a
absolute audience favorite Julie Kaysam, well,

5
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,119
thank you, I thought you were
going to say, and someone who is

6
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:38,399
a diehard f cooler, which I
totally am, even though I know you

7
00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:42,240
haven't talked to you all the time. That's crazy. Literally listen every week

8
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,880
and then Wednesdays when the Patreon comes
out, I can't wait till seven am

9
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:49,240
because that's when it, at least
on the West Coast, it comes out

10
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,880
at seven am. And I've been
meaning to ask you if you could just

11
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,520
like set it so it comes out
at like twelve am, yeah or whatever.

12
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:02,399
I think that it's just for everybody
on all over the you know country.

13
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:03,680
It can just right when they wake
up because maybe they go to the

14
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:06,959
gym early or what. I don't
know. Last week's actually, for the

15
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,680
first time, I said it for
three am because I wanted them at the

16
00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:11,640
East coast. But I'll do it. I'll do it. Midnight and so

17
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,000
what I'm looking I'm looking out for
our patreon folks over here that like the

18
00:01:15,079 --> 00:01:19,280
first thing in the morning. Let
me ask you this, Julie Casem When

19
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,959
you listen to Patreon, aren't you
always like, yeah, I know this

20
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:26,239
story already, it's funny because well, actually probably not if it's Lynette.

21
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:30,799
If definitely if it's not Lynette.
And then with you sometimes yes and sometimes

22
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,159
because we we used to talk all
the time when I wasn't working, and

23
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,840
now that I'm working, we're kind
of hit or miss You'll call, I'll

24
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,799
miss it. I'll call, you
won't answer. We're busy, so like

25
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,719
I don't hear all the stories.
Actually, so it kind of works out.

26
00:01:44,359 --> 00:01:46,840
Yeah, or again I get to
text you and be like, who's

27
00:01:46,879 --> 00:01:49,319
Lina talking about? Who are you
telling? You know? So I get

28
00:01:49,319 --> 00:01:52,959
the insides right, that is that
is true? That is true? Uh,

29
00:01:53,319 --> 00:01:59,040
which you know what's annoying is that
the last Patreon we did, so

30
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:02,120
I I have a little update.
Well you know what, I'll save that

31
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,640
for. I'll save that for Patreon. The update. Oh but yeah,

32
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,400
but people were trying to guess in
the patri in the patreton, the patreon

33
00:02:09,439 --> 00:02:12,759
ap people were trying to guess,
and I was like, no, that

34
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,560
defeats the purpose. Like she was
so paranoid that even our Patreon listeners would

35
00:02:16,599 --> 00:02:20,840
know who she's talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah and say something.

36
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,159
But anyway, So I was deleting
comments on Patreon, oh, because people

37
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,800
were guessing the right one. They
tend to guess when they don't know,

38
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,120
and normally it's okay, like it's
fun, but this particular instance is like

39
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,719
no, no, no, stop, stop stop. Oh my god,

40
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,520
somebody figured out the one where and
you know who it is? I think

41
00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:44,639
the comedian. I had no idea. And then I was reading all the

42
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,120
comments and I was like, oh, okay, because Giovanni completely figured out

43
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,759
who we were talking about and then
wrote a whole thing. And at that

44
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,800
point I was like, wow,
whatever, Yeah, if he finds out,

45
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,919
I mean, I don't know,
we're not we're not friends. Yeah,

46
00:02:58,039 --> 00:03:00,919
it's fine, it's well my kidding. Let's say hi. Do you

47
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,560
speaking of people that listen all the
time, let's say hi to some of

48
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:08,919

72
00:04:58,399 --> 00:05:02,319
Tell me. The day you are
listening to this, which is tomorrow for

73
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:10,120
us, is my husband's sixtieth birthday. My god, sixty yeah, sixty.

74
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,759
It doesn't look a day over fifty
nine. I mean, he looks

75
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:17,680
so good. How dare you on
his behalf? So okay, can we

76
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:23,720
just talk about men's birthdays? Yes? Please? Because, by the way,

77
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:27,040
my husband's turning fifty this year.
So I was talking to you,

78
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,920
okay, So I was racking my
brain for what am I going to do

79
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000
for my husband because he doesn't want
to party, He doesn't even want people

80
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:39,399
coming over. He doesn't want to
acknowledge that he's going to be sixty.

81
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:46,240
He's feeling upset about it. Right, he hates many many years ago when

82
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,279
we'd been together. I mean we've
been together for a while, maybe like

83
00:05:50,439 --> 00:05:56,720
two years. Yeah, I fum
a surprise party. Okay, so it

84
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,319
must have been. I don't remember
what birthday it was for, but it

85
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,040
was anyway, But I fewm a
surprise party. And I didn't know that

86
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,319
he hates surprise anything. He's got
really bad social anxiety. I knew he

87
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,040
had social anxiety already. I knew
this, but I didn't think. But

88
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,439
in my mind, see, sometimes
we do things for other people that we

89
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,759
would like done for ourselves, right, And I'd once had a surprise party

90
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:26,040
and it was so fun like it
was really I was truly surprised, that

91
00:06:26,199 --> 00:06:30,480
feeling of walking into a place.
It was my friend Bonnie McFarlane and my

92
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,480
friend Lisa had thrown up for me. And I mean, just to go

93
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,399
back, because I want to know, if you've ever had a surprise party.

94
00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:42,279
No I have not. Okay,
Well, this was like truly a

95
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,600
surprise. That's cool when it's truly
your like completely thrown off taking a clue,

96
00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:50,560
that's the best no idea. And
at the time Bonnie was kind of

97
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,680
a newer friend to me, so
I wasn't and Bonnie and I were writing

98
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:59,959
a script together. So we're at
my apartment in Santa Monica. She's over

99
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,759
I'm wearing like literally like no no
makeup, and you know, in your

100
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,759
twenties that's the thing, like you
don't go you don't go out to bars

101
00:07:06,759 --> 00:07:10,639
with no makeup on. But I
was like, we're literally hanging out.

102
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:13,720
I think I'm wearing sweats or overalls. At the time I was putting in

103
00:07:13,759 --> 00:07:18,920
to my overalls, I had these
railroad like railroad engineered yep, you know

104
00:07:18,959 --> 00:07:25,079
the ones with the pintries. Yeah, osh koshash overall. I only know

105
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:30,120
this because I remember from photographs now. But so, so I'm with my

106
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,120
friend, it's kind of and she's
like, let's let's like take a break

107
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,560
from writing and like, let's go
get a drink. And she wanted to

108
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:39,120
go to this the Coronet Room,
which is on Losiana Go, which is

109
00:07:39,519 --> 00:07:42,920
real far from where we were.
So I'm like, well, a,

110
00:07:43,319 --> 00:07:46,120
no, like I don't feel like
going out, I'm tired, and b

111
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:49,240
if we were going to go get
a drink, why would we go all

112
00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:54,480
the way to that place? That's
pretty far. So she just sprung it

113
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,839
on you, like so casually,
like, hey, let's go out tonight,

114
00:07:57,079 --> 00:08:00,560
even though she's got this whole thing
planned. She and my our other

115
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,839
friend had planned it, yes,
and everybody taking ricks because usually you'll be

116
00:08:05,879 --> 00:08:07,560
like, oh, on Saturday,
can we let's just go grab some dinner.

117
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:09,560
So at least you have a few
days lead up, you know that

118
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,600
the plan is in place. Correct
to just do it like a couple hours

119
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:15,319
prior and be like, hey,
you want to head over to this bar?

120
00:08:15,399 --> 00:08:16,279
What if you were like, no, we were in our twenties,

121
00:08:16,279 --> 00:08:22,040
we weren't moms, we weren't like
organizational. And she told me later that

122
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:24,360
she was starting to freak out.
She wasn't going according to right. I

123
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:28,759
think in her mind we were pretty
happy, go lucky, like we didn't

124
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:35,120
have kids, a coup I don't
have. In her mind it was like,

125
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,039
why wouldn't she want to like go
grab a drink. It's like,

126
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,320
what are we doing? You know, And normally I think I would I

127
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,799
think I normally would have. So
it was surprising to her that I was

128
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,039
like, absolutely not, I really
don't feel like it. So then she

129
00:08:50,159 --> 00:08:54,519
started to be so then I think
she got a phone call. I don't.

130
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,000
I don't feel like we even had
cell phones in those days, so

131
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,039
I'm trying to remember how down.
Maybe she got a call on the landline

132
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,320
or she pretended. I don't remember
what it was, but the point is

133
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,639
she was she was getting kind of
more desperate, and I swear to god,

134
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,120
I had no idea. But she
tells me that if I really at

135
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,919
that point, if I hadn't said
okay, she was just gonna have to

136
00:09:16,919 --> 00:09:22,799
tell me because oh, she was
getting calls somehow from our other friend that

137
00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:26,120
was like dude, what the fuck? Like people are here phones back then

138
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,000
or something. I maybe there was
a page, I don't remember. The

139
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,840
point is, finally I was like, all right, all right, if

140
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,960
you're really not, because she's like, I just can't, I can't write,

141
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,279
Like I just I have to go
take a break, and like yeah,

142
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,039
So I said, okay, okay, okay, okay. So we

143
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:48,600
get there and I walk in and
I do remember very specifically seeing somebody that

144
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,240
I knew that was a friend of
mine and thinking, oh my god,

145
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,519
like, what's it was? My
friend Mike Maddox. I was like,

146
00:09:54,759 --> 00:09:58,559
what's mag Maddics doing? Here and
I got hi, and he's like hi,

147
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,279
and then I as I'm kind of
looking around, there's like people have

148
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:05,200
balloons, and I swear to God, though, I was like, so

149
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:11,080
when was your actual birthday? Probably
like a week later or something or maybe

150
00:10:11,159 --> 00:10:15,200
yeah, maybe like in the next
couple days. Yeah, so but I

151
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:20,399
still it's I was so surprised and
shocked that I was like, I still

152
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:22,279
it took my brain a bit to
register, so I was like, what

153
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,480
is he doing here? And then
finally somebody else because they didn't yell surprise.

154
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:30,600
It was just all my friends were
at this bar, and then they

155
00:10:30,639 --> 00:10:33,600
started and then happy Birthday, And
I was like, how do you know?

156
00:10:33,639 --> 00:10:37,159
It was my birthday? And then
I start seeing that everybody there is

157
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,840
somebody I know, and I was
like, oh my god. I was

158
00:10:41,879 --> 00:10:46,159
so surprised. I was very happy. I was very flattered. So what

159
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,080
did I want to do for John? I wanted to give him that feeling?

160
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,240
Of course, little did I know
that's a terrible feeling for him,

161
00:10:52,799 --> 00:10:56,840
right, like so uncomfortable. Yeah, he well, but you he was

162
00:10:56,879 --> 00:11:00,320
only two years in, so you
probably didn't fully know the extension. Maybe

163
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:03,240
less than that, maybe it was
like a year. Maybe I had we've

164
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:05,000
been together like a year and a
half. I don't. Somehow I already

165
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:09,279
was friends with his friends. Yeah, maybe it was two years. But

166
00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:13,279
I called every single one of his
friends. I had them meet me at

167
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:16,759
the hotel. It's one of the
hotels on the beach, Casa del Mar,

168
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,559
because it's a nice hotel on the
beach, a fancy hotel. And

169
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,440
I had everybody just meet in like
the lobby, at the lobby, but

170
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:30,480
there's a big open lounge, yeah, lounge restaurant. Yeah. So I

171
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,039
had all of this, you know, and we were like early thirty.

172
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,679
Yeah, so I was it was
we hadn't been together that long anyway,

173
00:11:37,919 --> 00:11:43,200
John, we took him out.
We went with my his best friend and

174
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,559
his best friend's wife, so they
are our best couple friends. Yeah,

175
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,600
and then we so he thought he
was going down for his birth He thought

176
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,279
he was just going out for his
birthday, just with our other couple friend.

177
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,120
So we took him out. We
went to sushi and he got a

178
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,440
little bit drunk, and then we
were like, let's go for an drink.

179
00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,080
Let's go have a drink, and
he was like okay, you know,

180
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:09,039
so we walk into the bar area
to, you know, we tell

181
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,320
him let's go to the Casa del
Mar's. It was walking distance too,

182
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,320
so he was like, okay,
so we anyway, we walk in there,

183
00:12:15,639 --> 00:12:20,159
and he had a similar experience,
except for much worse for him because

184
00:12:20,519 --> 00:12:24,080
he walks in and I thought,
my a close friend of his, I

185
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,360
thought gave away the surprise. He's
in there. He's got like a gift

186
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:31,000
in his hand. He sees John, but we haven't gotten to the area

187
00:12:31,039 --> 00:12:35,120
where everybody's gonna say surprise. So
he's just walking like he'd gotten it about

188
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,960
or he just walked in, and
John had no He was just like,

189
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,600
oh, hey, Keith, what
are you doing here? And Keith is

190
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,480
like, hey, buddy, you
know, just like a oh, I'm

191
00:12:43,519 --> 00:12:46,279
here meeting some friends or whatever.
And John goes, oh, okay,

192
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:50,120
we're having a drink, you know. Anyway, then we walk over to

193
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:56,200
the area and then everybody goes surprise. And John's face was so stunned,

194
00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:58,879
and not in a good way,
like it was very he was very shocked.

195
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,279
He got kind of pale. He
like didn't know what to do.

196
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:09,440
And then I think he take him
a minute to warm up. He warmed

197
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,440
up. I think he was very
flattered, as I had been. But

198
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:18,919
but for him, there was like
this after effect where he got very anxious

199
00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:22,200
about like how did I act?
Did I pay attention to people? Did

200
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,639
I seem gracious enough? Like?
Who was there? Did I you know

201
00:13:24,639 --> 00:13:30,639
what I mean? Overthinking the entire
thought everything basically told me, please don't

202
00:13:30,639 --> 00:13:33,519
ever do that. Please don't ever
do that again. That was the biggest

203
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:41,320
nightmare, like it still reverberates his
soul. I really fucked up little,

204
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,320
did you know? So bringing it
back to this milestone birthday, Yeah,

205
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,919
I've only been with him for two
big fortieth. That must have been for

206
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,360
his fortieth wow, yeah, fortieth, fiftieth and now sixtieth. Yeah,

207
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,360
although no, I don't think it
was because well, wait, have you

208
00:13:58,399 --> 00:14:05,440
guys, Helen been together for thirty
years? We've been married twenty years now,

209
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:07,480
and we were already together four years, so we've been together twenty four

210
00:14:07,519 --> 00:14:11,240
years. Okay, Okay, So
anyway, the point is, I was

211
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,720
like, what am I gonna do
for his birthday? Because it's really hard

212
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:18,120
to shop for him. There's not
like things that he wants all I know.

213
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,679
It's so hard to like buy stuff
for spouses or boyfriends it's like,

214
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,519
especially at this age, you kind
of can just buy whatever you want,

215
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:31,399
right Yea, so I said to
you. And also i'd post I procrastinated

216
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,879
too long to be able to like
order him some fun stuff that you see

217
00:14:35,919 --> 00:14:39,240
online right now. I was like, oh, there's a hoodie with with

218
00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:43,039
people. I could have people put
on a hoodie, you know. But

219
00:14:43,159 --> 00:14:45,200
you see that stuff and you're like, well, I have four days.

220
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,000
So I called you. Yeah,
this is all coming back to Julie Case.

221
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,279
I called you and I was like, girl, what am I going

222
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,399
to do for John's birthday? And
do you remember what you said? Yeah?

223
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,080
I was like, get him an
experience, yeah, and get him

224
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,879
a gift to take him to a
answer something right. And I was like,

225
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,600
that's a really good idea. So
then I had the idea of like,

226
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:11,879
he likes the comedian Taylor Tomlinson.
And I knew that coming up in

227
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,080
Netflix. Netflix is a joke.
Yeah, for the series, I knew

228
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,639
there was this. There was going
to be Taylor Tomlinson with Michelle Buteau,

229
00:15:20,399 --> 00:15:26,240
Sarah Silverman and somebody else Nikki Glazer
maybe oh wow, And I was like,

230
00:15:26,399 --> 00:15:30,039
oh, maybe he I know,
he likes Taylor Tomlinson, maybe I

231
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,399
could get tickets to that. So
I looked at the tickets and they were

232
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,080
a Thursday night, which I work
on Thursday night. So I'm like,

233
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,120
well, I wouldn't be able to
go, but I guess I could.

234
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,000
Maybe I could buy him tickets with
the kids. So then I don't know

235
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:46,200
how I thought of it, but
I was like, well, who but

236
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:50,159
he doesn't even really that's not I
was like, who's his favorite comedian?

237
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,840
And I was like, well,
John Mullaney. Yeah, So I look

238
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:58,240
up John Mulaney and he's freaking like
Hollywood Bowl on May four? What are

239
00:15:58,279 --> 00:16:03,360
the chances that it's so random?
And I was already come through here a

240
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,639
few times. So then I look
and I see that there are tickets available,

241
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:10,960
and then I called the kids in. I was like, hey,

242
00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:14,639
guys, blah blah blah, what
do you think about getting him tickets to

243
00:16:14,759 --> 00:16:17,919
this? And they're like, yes, he would love it. So then

244
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,679
I'm like, Taylor Tomlinson or John
Malaney and they were like, oh,

245
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,799
John Mullaney one hundred percent Taylor is
They did. But here's the funny thing,

246
00:16:27,519 --> 00:16:32,799
Xander had. John had just made
Xander watch a Taylor Tomlinson Special and

247
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,639
I was working at the time,
and he said that John said, eh,

248
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,600
her new specials like not that great? Okay, it was okay,

249
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,480
yeah, so I was like,
okay, per So then I call LB

250
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,360
and she was like, yes,
that sounds great. We're all in town.

251
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,840
So I bought the tickets. So
we're going to surprise him with the

252
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,720
with the tickets, and I think
it'll be very special to him because he

253
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,320
loves stuff like that the whole you
know, he's very sentimental. Do I

254
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,679
love that the kids are old enough
now that you can go do that.

255
00:17:03,919 --> 00:17:06,440
You know, it's a whole different
world with what we can do with our

256
00:17:06,519 --> 00:17:10,559
kids now. It's so fun.
Yeah, so what are you planning for

257
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:11,519
you? Wait, wait, one
more thing. Okay, so what are

258
00:17:11,559 --> 00:17:15,440
you doing the day tomorrow, the
day of his birthday? Guys gonna go

259
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,440
to the day? Are you working? I am? But so we were

260
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,400
thinking of going out, okay,
on like the weekend, which would have

261
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:26,599
just passed. But then I was
thinking, you know when you go out

262
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,119
on the weekend and then the actual
birthday comes such a dud, Yes,

263
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,359
totally, Like that sucks. Then
you're like, well, we already celebrated

264
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,039
your birthdays. You're trying to like
have a good attitude the day of,

265
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:45,359
and I totally get that. You're
like, I'm gonna go to Coffee Bean

266
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,359
and get you a coffee. Oh, you stay in bed, I'll walk

267
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:56,880
penal Bee right. Which it's like
I watch every Way exactly, So it's

268
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,240
just not it doesn't hit. It
doesn't hit the same as when you actually

269
00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:03,319
have something planned. I know.
Agree. So I said, hey,

270
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:07,119
even though I teach, I teach
my writing class on Tuesday nights, but

271
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,319
it only goes it's like from five
to six forty five, and the kids

272
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,240
have a later start at school on
Wednesday. Anyway, So I was like,

273
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,519
do you want to just do your
birthday on your actual birthday? And

274
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,400
we can go to dinner as soon
as I'm done with you know, we

275
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,839
could go to dinner like seven,
are you guys going to Benny Hannah No

276
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:27,480
favorite, Stomping my favorite. We're
just gonna go for sushi perfect, and

277
00:18:27,559 --> 00:18:30,759
then Sadie's going to bake him the
cake and then we'll give him his we'll

278
00:18:30,799 --> 00:18:36,039
give him his gift perfect so special. I think it'll be really happy because

279
00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:38,680
it'll be a gift he likes it's
still going to be low key. Yes,

280
00:18:38,799 --> 00:18:45,319
no special guests, not going to
appearances. No, nobody came to

281
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,720
our house and making him go.
Because this is John. If I want

282
00:18:48,759 --> 00:18:52,240
to have people over, he's gonna
be like, but our front lawn looks

283
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,079
terrible, like our landscaping. I'm
like, no, he's gonna care,

284
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,880
but you have to have our kitchen
redone. I'm like, I know,

285
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,200
but so we're gonna have friends over
in like ten years, That's what I'm

286
00:19:03,279 --> 00:19:06,920
saying. We never, as you
know, we never ever Undertanze, yes,

287
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,720
because John's like, there's nowhere for
people to be. We don't have

288
00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:11,920
a backyard, and I'm always like, all right, well I'm just gonna

289
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,640
have to keep waiting for those invites. Anyway, what are you gonna do?

290
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,240
Okay, So for speaking of surprise
parties, you'll remember this, you

291
00:19:21,319 --> 00:19:23,640
know what. Let's take a quick
break first, so then we can just

292
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:29,640
talk to you continuously after that and
talk about something that makes a great gift

293
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:33,319
for everybody that you love in your
life. And it's Quin's. Yes,

294
00:19:34,319 --> 00:19:40,400
imagine upgrading your wardrobe with luxury essentials
at unbeatable prices. I'm gonna tell you,

295
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,039
somebody who's done that like four times
over. And that's Kaylin our Pard.

296
00:19:44,279 --> 00:19:48,200
I'm hearing Kaylin talk about Quins and
he's purchased this and this he's wearing

297
00:19:48,319 --> 00:19:52,440
right now. I'm wearing these performance
sweatpants I'm wearing right now. So they

298
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,440
gave us the first set of them, and I loved them so much I

299
00:19:55,519 --> 00:19:59,839
went back and bought these ones in
a different colors. Wow, that's what.

300
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:04,160
That's my go to where I wore
these to Easter Sunday yesterday. It's

301
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,920
my Easter Sunday best and I pads
performance sweatpants because I love them so much.

302
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,599
That's not an endorsement. I don't
know what is. And I was

303
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:18,400
just wearing my Cashmere bubblegum pink V
neck sweater that is so cute. It

304
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,920

00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,160

So for Jamil's fortieth you'll remember this,

312
00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,519
Stephanie, I think you will.
So at the time, so he's

313
00:21:00,599 --> 00:21:03,599
forty nine now, but at the
time, he was playing soccer every Sunday

314
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,200
morning. Yeah, so he'd leave
the house whatever, get back at like

315
00:21:07,559 --> 00:21:10,920
eleven, let's say. So I
was like, that is really the only

316
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,480
time we can have a surprise party. Is so random. But at the

317
00:21:15,519 --> 00:21:18,079
time, our kids were a lot
younger. Bella would have been nine,

318
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,599
Sophie would have been five, and
your kids were like around this literally the

319
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,000
same age. Yeah, And so
I was like, okay, let's make

320
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:29,880
it like a whole kashaw as Lynette
would say, and have we have a

321
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:36,279
very big backyard, so let's have
like a water slide and pool party and

322
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,119
cater like I think we had Mexican
catering and a margarita machine and let's just

323
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,920
make it for kids and adults.
Everybody come. So that's what we did.

324
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:48,240
So I was like, okay,
So I planned this entire thing,

325
00:21:48,319 --> 00:21:51,960
I mean to this day, he
says he was surprised. I don't know,

326
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,119
because I had to like have all
the tables delivered, the margarita machine

327
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,559
delivered a day before while he was
at work two days before on a Friday.

328
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:03,839
So and then I just shoved it
all in the garage, you know.

329
00:22:03,039 --> 00:22:07,920
So then the morning of he leaves
for soccer and then I pull everything

330
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,119
out set up really quickly, which
I did, but I'm still I don't

331
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,960
know. And so we had a
ton of people, and do you remember

332
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,079
that there were You're acting like you
weren't there. Were you not there?

333
00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:22,640
You know? I have the worst
memory. I probably was there like you.

334
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,960
Yeah, I gotta now, we
gotta go revisit the pictures and see

335
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,799
if there's photo of it. It
was because that was like there would have

336
00:22:29,839 --> 00:22:34,920
been elementary school moms exactly like you. Laura Helena was there, I know

337
00:22:36,039 --> 00:22:37,839
for sure, like I got a
look or maybe you were busy that day

338
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,319
for some weird reason. I don't
know. I'm sure I wouldn't have been

339
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:42,920
too busy to come, right,
but anyway, go on. So then

340
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,559
so what we did is we all
gathered in the front and then he walked

341
00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:51,480
in the door and everybody's like surprise. I do remember that. I do

342
00:22:51,799 --> 00:22:55,119
remember having to like get ready to
say surprise. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

343
00:22:55,319 --> 00:22:57,359
And then we had like a huge
soccer cake because he's such a soccer

344
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:03,319
yes, yes, fan, yes, anyway, so that was so fun.

345
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,039
And then everybody just you know,
partied around the pool the rest of

346
00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:07,799
the day. So that was fun. Say, he enjoyed that. He

347
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,000
loved it. And I even asked
him the other day because his birthday's coming

348
00:23:11,079 --> 00:23:12,880
up, and I'm like, no, like, be honest, were you

349
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,960
really surprised, Like we're past it
now you can tell me. He's like,

350
00:23:17,039 --> 00:23:19,440
no, no, I was surprised. He's like he said, I

351
00:23:19,559 --> 00:23:23,000
saw something I can't remember if he
saw someone walking outside he goes, So

352
00:23:23,079 --> 00:23:26,799
I kind of was like, what's
going on here? So he's like I

353
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,400
kind of had some idea like what
and then, But but other than that,

354
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:33,240
he didn't know it would be that
many people right right right, And

355
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,319
I had like some of his old
frap buddies come like like Jim, yes,

356
00:23:38,559 --> 00:23:44,680
exactly, everybody from work to his
old FRAP bros to like our new

357
00:23:45,039 --> 00:23:48,000
friends that we met flown in.
I want to say Jim flew in.

358
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,839
Yeah, that's best friend like his
brother. Yeah yeah, yeah, okay,

359
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,480
yeah, and then Jim proceeded to
get blasted and then every time,

360
00:23:56,599 --> 00:23:59,640
So this is Jamille's best friend and
he's like a brother to him. And

361
00:23:59,759 --> 00:24:03,240
but whenever Jim drinks, he wants
to wrestle your meals, which meels like,

362
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:07,079
dude, I'm too old for this. Like they're just looking a nice

363
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,039
time, throw down some beers and
just chill. And then there's chill,

364
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:15,599
like tackling him on the grass.
You're just like, all right, let's

365
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:22,160
do this. That's so funny.
I feel like he brought his son with

366
00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:26,519
him dad divorce, Yeah exactly.
He brought was like sleeping in the other

367
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,359
room for a while. Yep,
he was little, yeah exactly. Yeah,

368
00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:36,480
so that was super fun. So
now he's turning fifty and I feel

369
00:24:36,519 --> 00:24:40,960
like the pressure's on. But I
kind of feel like I'm I may be

370
00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:47,359
getting away with something here because we
have been building a house in Lebanon for

371
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,359
the last I don't even know how
many years. It's finally finished. So

372
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,440
we're all going to Lebanon, oh
okay, in June and taking his mom

373
00:24:56,599 --> 00:25:00,039
to go see the house and the
whole thing. So I feel like I

374
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,559
feel like for him, that's like
his big fiftieth of like going to Lebanon.

375
00:25:04,759 --> 00:25:07,200
I put my heart and soul into
this house. Like to me,

376
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,480
to him, that's like a big
culmination of like fifty years of like,

377
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,480
Wow, look what I've worked towards, Look what I've done, and now

378
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,359
we have to go back and enjoy
it. So his birthday is July twenty

379
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,440
second. Oh so you girl,
that's far away. I can't get away

380
00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:26,079
with that being the fiftieth. Yeah, no you can. No. I

381
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,720
think I was gonna say, you
can. I thought his birthday was like

382
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:30,359
soon. No no, no,
no, no, no, can't really

383
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,440
be like, well, we're gonna
be something. We're gonna be birthday.

384
00:25:33,519 --> 00:25:37,559
The other thing we are doing,
I believe is one of my besties,

385
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:45,000
Andrea Stephanie knows her well. Her
parents have a gorgeous home on a private

386
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,279
lake in Idaho. Basically there's like
I don't even know, maybe ten homes

387
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,680
on this lake and they have every
single toy you could think of, ATVs

388
00:25:52,839 --> 00:25:56,720
and skiing. We're gonna ski,
We're gonna tube, we're gonna roast marshmallows,

389
00:25:56,759 --> 00:26:00,759
We're gonna a TV We're gonna do
all of it. And his birthday's

390
00:26:00,839 --> 00:26:03,839
July twenty second. We leave July
twenty third to go to Idaho for that,

391
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,880
So that's also kind of like going
to Idaho, will celebrate his birthday

392
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,480
there, So like those, but
there's nothing like specifically that I've planned per

393
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:15,839
se. That's hey, Jameial,
this is just for you your fiftieth birthday.

394
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,960
I mean, what I would love
to do is plan for him and

395
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:23,160
his buddies to go to Europe and
do some sort of like historical like trip

396
00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:27,720
through Europe following Napoleon's march or I
don't know something. He's a total history

397
00:26:27,759 --> 00:26:32,640
buff. Yeah, but he's like
not a nerd. He's a total nerd.

398
00:26:32,759 --> 00:26:36,119
He's like he's like John, where
he knows a lot about a lot

399
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,440
of things. You know, I
know very little about very few things.

400
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:45,440
I just don't. I don't know
a lot I James don't, and I

401
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,519
don't even pretend. And Jamil is
kind of like John in the way that

402
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:55,279
like loves to be asked shit like
yes, go, like what can you

403
00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:56,960
kind of explain to me, like
what's going on in the Middle East?

404
00:26:57,039 --> 00:27:00,160
He'll be like all right, have
a scene like, for instance, he's

405
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,839
been dying to watch Showgun. I
don't know if John's been into this,

406
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,839
yes, And I was like,
you know what, I'm gonna be the

407
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,000
good wife. We're gonna do this. We're gonna sit down and watch Showgun.

408
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,880
And I was like, what the
fuck? What is happening? Who

409
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,319
are these people? I knew nothing. He's like, well, you got

410
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,799
to kind of know the history.
So we're pausing and we're going through the

411
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,359
history of it, and I was
like, still don't get it. So

412
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,759
I tapped out after like thirty minutes
in episode one. I'm like, honey,

413
00:27:25,839 --> 00:27:26,839
like, it's not gonna be fun
for you because I'm gonna be asking

414
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,160
so many questions, right, but
that is fun for them. Unfortunately,

415
00:27:30,559 --> 00:27:34,519
Unfortunately, they can't wait for an
excuse. They're like they sense. They're

416
00:27:34,599 --> 00:27:37,240
like, I feel like, you
don't understand what's going on. Literally,

417
00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:40,119
no no, no, no,
no no no, you don't have to

418
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,079
pause it. I'll catch up and
they're like no no, no, no,

419
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,359
no no no no no, let
me pause it. Let me tell

420
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,119
you. And then it's like,
okay, let's go back one hundred years

421
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,799
before this took place. Literally We're
never literally through this, so now I

422
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,519
feel bad. But what we do
is he comes home, we have dinner,

423
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,960
we hang out, and then we're
like and break. I go in

424
00:27:59,039 --> 00:28:00,799
the room and I watched it down
to Abbey and he stays out and watch

425
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:06,200
his Showgun and I could not be
happier toill me fine with that. We

426
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,319
just got done. We're way behind
on every show, but we just got

427
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:15,039
done binge watching together Homeland, which
was I just loved it. He kind

428
00:28:15,079 --> 00:28:19,720
of, I don't know, by
the by by season five he was like,

429
00:28:19,799 --> 00:28:22,799
Okay, I get it, like
I'm good, and I'm like,

430
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,440
no, it's just getting good.
So we kind of were watching it together.

431
00:28:26,519 --> 00:28:29,480
So I feel like we did the
together thing and we've been bonded over

432
00:28:29,559 --> 00:28:32,440
that and now we're kind of doing
our own thing right, which works out

433
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,880
well. So anyway, I don't
know how we got onto this topic.

434
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,319
Oh, we were just talking about
him being a nerd. A nerd yeah

435
00:28:38,359 --> 00:28:42,680
that he would like to go see
like Napoleon shit, Yeah, exact is

436
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,720
a World War two nerd. As
you know, Yes, he just wants

437
00:28:45,839 --> 00:28:49,400
everything. He made the kids watch
Masters of Air, which was a recent

438
00:28:51,079 --> 00:28:52,759
thing that was on you know,
Apple it's on Apple. It's by the

439
00:28:52,799 --> 00:28:56,200
same people that did Band of Brothers. And yes, okay, Jamil would

440
00:28:56,279 --> 00:29:00,279
love that. Oh yeah, yeah. That was after Saving Private Ryan came

441
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:02,440
out and then they did Band of
Brothers, which is a great show.

442
00:29:02,519 --> 00:29:04,079
Oh yeah. And then they did
The Pacific which was all right. And

443
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,640
then I tried to watch Masters of
Air but I wasn't really into it.

444
00:29:07,119 --> 00:29:11,400
Is it about like the pilots?
Pilot, Oh, Jamille would love that.

445
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,799
He knows every single plane. He
can tell you like, this is

446
00:29:15,839 --> 00:29:18,319
a B two bomber, it was
used in this war. This that that

447
00:29:18,599 --> 00:29:21,319
he knows all of that. Jail
was going to go into the Air Force.

448
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,039
Oh my god, yes he went. He took the test as a

449
00:29:25,079 --> 00:29:26,880
senior in high school. He wanted
to go into the Air Force. He

450
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,559
was like, that is what I
want to do. And he took some

451
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:36,480
tests that you take to like then
to see what your you know, intelligence

452
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:38,480
level is to then do something I
don't know, and he like was talking

453
00:29:38,519 --> 00:29:44,519
all the guys and then was it
the Iraq War back then that happened and

454
00:29:44,599 --> 00:29:47,359
Shamil's like, oh wait, but
I don't know that I want to be

455
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,039
like bombing my people. You know. I mean he's not obviously he's not

456
00:29:51,119 --> 00:29:52,480
Iraqi, but you know what I'm
saying, like going over the Middle East

457
00:29:52,519 --> 00:29:56,640
and he's like, oh, this
is going to get uncomfortable, and I

458
00:29:56,839 --> 00:29:59,920
you know, there was a lot
there, and then his parents are like,

459
00:30:00,039 --> 00:30:02,960
please don't do that, like just
go be a doctor and let's just

460
00:30:03,119 --> 00:30:06,880
be cool with that. So yes, So he is very knowledgeable about any

461
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,039
airplane that was used in any war
at any time. He will tell you.

462
00:30:10,359 --> 00:30:15,160
So John's father fought in World War
Two and was in the Air Force

463
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:22,359
and flew one of those planes.
I'm going to say B seventeen and now

464
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,319
I can't remember the name of the
plane. John would be so upset right

465
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:30,920
now. He's obsessed with his dad's
history. And well, what happened is

466
00:30:32,359 --> 00:30:36,720
what happened is that the mission he
had to fly, all these they had

467
00:30:36,759 --> 00:30:40,839
to fly like twenty five missions before
they could be released after they finished their

468
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,519
and somehow with him, I think
they had to fly some extra missions.

469
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,599
As soon as they were done.
A new flight crew, you know,

470
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,240
with a bombadier and the pilot and
they a new team went in on that

471
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,920
plane and I think on their second
mission they all died. Oh, god.

472
00:30:56,279 --> 00:31:00,920
Yeah. Wow, So he made
it through. I mean it could

473
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,039
have very easily not. I mean
it was crazy. But at one point

474
00:31:06,519 --> 00:31:11,160
the bomber on his plane, like
they got hit, I believe, and

475
00:31:11,319 --> 00:31:17,960
there they lost the bomb bombadier on
his plane Like he's been through it,

476
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,920
Wow, John, I mean no, I'm just talking about it, just

477
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,480
talking about No. I mean his
dad really went through it, and and

478
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,960
he his dad didn't really talk to
him much about that stuff. And I

479
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,200
think there's like a thing with him
where to feel closer to his dad.

480
00:31:34,279 --> 00:31:41,480
I think he's always been really interested
in everything surrounding the planes and the history

481
00:31:41,559 --> 00:31:45,640
and the stories, and he knows
everything about it. Oh my god,

482
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,720
Okay I can't. So we talked
about that hours they could do. Yeah,

483
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:55,359
that's so funny. That's wild.
Yeah, I love I love Jamille

484
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,799
and Jamille. Let me let me
say something about Jamil. He is so

485
00:32:00,279 --> 00:32:05,200
he's he's like he can be a
little Noah Ali right, and then but

486
00:32:05,359 --> 00:32:08,079
then if you if you sort of
push back a little bit, he will

487
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:13,480
soften you. Guys. You guys
have an interesting relationship in that way because

488
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,640
Stephanie, you like to be not
right, to challenge, you like to

489
00:32:17,799 --> 00:32:22,039
challenge, that's what it is.
And he likes to challenge. So if

490
00:32:22,079 --> 00:32:23,279
you say something, he's going to
challenge it. If he says something,

491
00:32:23,319 --> 00:32:27,119
you're going to challenge it, right, which I like to see you guys

492
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,640
kind of like talk about stuff.
It's good, but it's on the side.

493
00:32:30,799 --> 00:32:32,039
Yeah, yeah, yeah, of
course. But sometimes I just want

494
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:36,119
to know what he knows about stuff. But sometimes his stuff that he gets

495
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,559
challenging about will be like just opinion. Like he'll be like, Okay,

496
00:32:39,599 --> 00:32:44,279
you've got to try this tea and
then I'm like, he's like, it's

497
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,680
really good. It's like from you
know, it's from my people or whatever.

498
00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:49,799
Then I'll try the tea and I'm
like, you know, this is

499
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,119
discussing. It tastes like dirt,
and he'll he'll go like, what are

500
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:58,160
you talking about? It's delicious.
The nutrientsisness coming from the mother lamb.

501
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:01,000
It doesn't have any preserves. Not
that he's a health nut because it's not,

502
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:05,839
but like he will find an argument
as to why you should like this

503
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,240
tea. Right, yes. But
the one thing that we but it heads

504
00:33:08,279 --> 00:33:13,680
on, like early in our relationship
was he had decided when your kids were

505
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,160
very little, you know, where
I'm going with this the Kuman. Yes,

506
00:33:19,799 --> 00:33:24,200
So Julie's kids were babies, like, uh like Sophie must have been

507
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:29,720
one and Bell was four or something. Yeah, yeah, and Jamil was

508
00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:31,839
like, Okay, we are gonna
get them. You do a better jamial

509
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,640
voice than I do, but you
you tell me Jamil's what he does.

510
00:33:36,559 --> 00:33:37,640
Was like listen. So we got
to get him into Kuman. Like,

511
00:33:38,759 --> 00:33:40,799
I'm not kidding when I tell you
Bell it was four because she was in

512
00:33:40,839 --> 00:33:45,319
preschool. And I was like,
so does everybody know what Kuman is.

513
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:51,720
It's like it's it's a it's like
a it's not totatoring, it's it's like

514
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,680
your kids are gonna be geniuses.
We're gonna we're gonna train them up.

515
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,440
They're gonna already be ready. Yeah, we're gonna start them early. Get

516
00:33:57,519 --> 00:34:00,680
in. You're gonna they're gonna blow
everybody away with their math skills and they're

517
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,200
reading comprehension skills. Yes, because
you're coming here every week and we're just

518
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,680
gonna like work on it. And
Jimmil is very very big on education,

519
00:34:07,119 --> 00:34:13,400
yes, and his whole family is, and I mean but pressure. Yeah.

520
00:34:14,039 --> 00:34:19,480
So anyway, so then we uh
so so he really wanted them to

521
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,719
get into Kuman. I was like, all right, I mean fine,

522
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:27,119
it can't hurt this and that.
Okay. Bella, who was four at

523
00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:30,679
the time, is the sweetest kid, Like she's a great She's a great

524
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:36,000
child to have because she's just kind, she's people pleasy, like she's like

525
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,679
she's up for anything. She's literally
like I remember when she was like five,

526
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,039
I'd be like, we're going to
do this, and then oh,

527
00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:42,760
we can't go. She'd be like, all right, what are we gonna

528
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,280
do, like kind of like an
lbie, like let's just make the best

529
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,239
of everything whatever situation put me,
and we're gonna have fun. She's the

530
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:52,039
best. Yeah, it's Elbe's the
same way. So as a parent,

531
00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:55,480
it was easy, right, Like
she never really complained about anything except I

532
00:34:55,679 --> 00:35:00,719
swear to God this is the truth. We're in Encino and I'm holding her

533
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,320
and we're walking up the stairs to
go to Kuman and she bit me,

534
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,599
which never in her life has she
been a child or done anything meat like

535
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:13,039
this is just not in her DNA
And I was like, my god,

536
00:35:13,079 --> 00:35:15,480
it four years old. She knew
like, bro, this is where I

537
00:35:15,519 --> 00:35:17,880
don't know where you're taking me,
but I don't want to go here.

538
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,920
Mom's not really on board. Dad, so like but she literally and I

539
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:27,800
was like, what Bella. So
we walk into Kuman and I'm holding her

540
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,800
and but can I just interject that
prior to this, just to prior to

541
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,679
this, you were talking about it
and you were saying, Jimmil is making

542
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,840
us go and I had an argument
with him. Yeah. Yeah. We

543
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:43,199
had a birthday party. I believe
it was your kid's birthday party. I

544
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,400
think it was Laura. I feel
like, OK, well, I was

545
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,760
like JIMMYO, because this is me. Yeah, I was kind of being

546
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,119
funny. Yeah, but I was
like JIMMYO, Julie tells me you want

547
00:35:52,119 --> 00:35:54,360
to put the kids in Kuman,
Like stop, what are you thinking about?

548
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,480
And he was like, wow,
it's going to be really good.

549
00:35:57,559 --> 00:36:00,639
Like I think it's important for them
to get a head start, like they

550
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:05,079
don't need Kuman. They're too young, yes, Like they're too young and

551
00:36:05,119 --> 00:36:07,280
he was like, no, they're
not. And we had a thing where

552
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,920
I was like, Julie, Jimial's
being ridiculous and You're like, I know,

553
00:36:09,079 --> 00:36:13,599
but what are you gonna do?
So that's which brings us to so

554
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,360
We would literally walk into Kuman and
the woman is in there and I'm like,

555
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,679
yeah, we just wanted to get
some information and you know, get

556
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,400
her started. And she's like how
old is she? I go she's four,

557
00:36:22,599 --> 00:36:27,079
and she goes, no, even
I mean, she didn't even want

558
00:36:27,119 --> 00:36:30,199
to sell her own product. She
was like, no, no, no,

559
00:36:30,519 --> 00:36:32,920
she needs to go play. She's
four. She's not even writing yet.

560
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,119
Like, they can't even start Kuman
until they can at least hold a

561
00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:38,679
pencil and write. They need to
know the alphabet lady. And I was

562
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:43,719
like, okay, this makes sense. So she was like, oh,

563
00:36:44,119 --> 00:36:46,800
okay, all right, So then
we left, but we ended up we

564
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:52,000
did end up doing Kuman with them
later for math, but that literally lasted

565
00:36:52,159 --> 00:36:55,280
maybe three months, and we were
like, this is so ridiculous because the

566
00:36:55,360 --> 00:37:00,559
math that they do is they're not
teaching math so much. Start giving you

567
00:37:00,639 --> 00:37:04,400
worksheet after worksheet after worksheet, so
you just do repetition, repetition, repetition,

568
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,239
moving on to the next level worksheet, worksheet, worksheet. Okay,

569
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,000
now you've got that down. And
I was like, this is why what

570
00:37:09,119 --> 00:37:12,920
are we doing? So then we
stopped. But yeah that was really funny.

571
00:37:13,079 --> 00:37:15,400
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that
literally. Bella and I talk about

572
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:16,559
it to this day. We're like, those are the stairs that you bit

573
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,599
me? Like, I don't know
how you knew what Kuman was, but

574
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,159
you knew even at four and you
were like no, So anyway, so

575
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,960
that was really funny. I know, all right, let's take a quick

576
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:35,039
break and we'll come right back.
Yeah, and Bella probably, I'm sure

577
00:37:35,079 --> 00:37:38,079
that Jamil had to wrap his mind
around the fact that Bella is not like,

578
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:42,599
she's not trying to be a doctor, no, like she from a

579
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,599
young age was like I just want
to sing and dance act. Yes,

580
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,440
he was like, what is happening? Yeah, I mean, yes he

581
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,480
was. But he himself is an
artist too, so he has that artistic

582
00:37:54,599 --> 00:37:59,840
side, and he was like,
if I could have just fall, you

583
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:04,000
know, done art, I would
have been probably like an animator or something

584
00:38:04,119 --> 00:38:06,440
like that. So he understands that
side of it. He just didn't have

585
00:38:06,519 --> 00:38:09,679
that option. You know, his
family they immigrated here and they just had

586
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:14,639
to kind of go into something that
was going to provide them with a stable

587
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,639
income. So you know, his
brother and sister are engineers and he's a

588
00:38:17,679 --> 00:38:22,280
physician, so he had these two
just a physician by the way. He's

589
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:29,760
the head of adult cardiac cardiac health. He's a adult congenital heart disease.

590
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:35,440
Yes, so thank you for that
same here. I know a little bit

591
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,480
about a little bit about a medical
schools yea, yeah, like that.

592
00:38:37,679 --> 00:38:42,800
I call it something a little bit
different. You say tomato, I say

593
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,280
tomato. But whatever, heartshit anyhow. Yeah. Yeah, he has a

594
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:51,599
very big important job and he helps
a lot of people, and he goes

595
00:38:51,639 --> 00:38:53,800
around the world, not just the
country. He goes around the world and

596
00:38:54,440 --> 00:39:00,400
teaches about new like technology in the
heart. Yeah, he teaches. He

597
00:39:00,639 --> 00:39:07,320
So he's an interventionalist, so he
teaches other interventionalists in the country and in

598
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,440
the world how to implant certain devices
and things like that. So he writes

599
00:39:10,599 --> 00:39:15,519
textbooks, he does. He's a
nerd, like we said. Then,

600
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,599
on the weekends, he likes to
play Warhammer, Yes he does, for

601
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,719
any for any of you that know
what Warhammer is, if you know,

602
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,639
you know, And he travels all
over the country to go to Warhammer tournaments

603
00:39:28,679 --> 00:39:30,840
and he takes it very seriously.
You know, he has fun with it

604
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,360
too. He'll send me videos of
the people that are there and he's like,

605
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,880
babe, okay, and he'll just
like pan and I'm like, oh,

606
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:43,119
way, these basically men that live
in their mom's basement who we're dealing

607
00:39:43,159 --> 00:39:47,119
with, right, But there's a
great community. Honestly, these people are

608
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:51,840
very bright, they're very intelligent,
they're very creative, they're really good at

609
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,480
what they do, and he loves
just being around that environment. So now

610
00:39:53,599 --> 00:39:57,800
this is very Dungeons and Dragons adjacent, right, Yes, it is,

611
00:39:58,039 --> 00:40:00,480
it is, and it isn't.
I mean, I'm sure Warhammer people would

612
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,519
say no, but by the way, that's right. Yeah, Dungeons and

613
00:40:04,559 --> 00:40:07,360
Dragons you kind of sit around a
table and you know, you do your

614
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,519
your stories or whatever, and you
make your own characters. But it's all

615
00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:13,840
just kind of made a Warhammer.
There are these little figurines that you buy

616
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:15,559
them, you paint them, you
build an army with them, and then

617
00:40:15,599 --> 00:40:20,440
oh, Jamil paints the fuck out
of them, out of them sing you

618
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,760
know what he said. He said
during the pandemic, He's like, you

619
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,440
know what's what's not going to change
and you know what's not going to be

620
00:40:25,519 --> 00:40:30,320
unstable are my miniatures. It's like
they're there for me no matter what.

621
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:35,599
It's like, they don't give me
shit, they don't have diseases. I

622
00:40:35,639 --> 00:40:39,000
can go to them every night and
just paint them. So he does.

623
00:40:39,079 --> 00:40:42,920
He paints all of his own figures. In fact, he was just at

624
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,000
a competition last weekend and he won
best Painted Army. So yeah, wow,

625
00:40:47,199 --> 00:40:53,320
you know, yay, Yeah,
you should be very excited too,

626
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:58,559
because speaking of nerdy TV shows,
there's one that Henry Cavell. Oh yeah,

627
00:40:58,639 --> 00:41:01,800
Henry Cavill is a big war and
he was this guy called the Witcher,

628
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,800
which is a big thing. He's
a big nerd too, and he's

629
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,199
helming the Warhammer TV show as like
a major fan and he's going to be

630
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,679
the front of it and he's putting
like all his energy into It's gonna be

631
00:41:10,679 --> 00:41:14,400
awesome. It's gonna be awesome.
And by the way, during the pandemic,

632
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,440
we were like, okay, Jamille's
like we need to buy stock in

633
00:41:17,519 --> 00:41:22,559
Games Workshop, which is the umbrella
of Warhammer. Okay, and I was

634
00:41:22,639 --> 00:41:25,440
like, honey, because it's not
cheap because you have to buy all these

635
00:41:27,039 --> 00:41:29,679
armies and then you buy more because
they're switching things up. It's not a

636
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,960
cheap, you know, game to
play. And I'm like, nobody has

637
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,480
money right now. During the pandemic, nobody's going to be buying this stuff.

638
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,519
He's like, trust me, and
we bought stock and it almost doubled

639
00:41:38,559 --> 00:41:42,880
within like the like a couple of
hours. Yeah, why did you say

640
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:49,119
something? Staff? Well, insider, what the hell next time? If

641
00:41:49,159 --> 00:41:51,840
you have a tip like that,
you got to share the way I know,

642
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,000
I'll just struggling here over here,
NERD alert, NERD alert. So

643
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:59,360
so anyway, Yeah, so that's
what he does in his free time,

644
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,599
which is great. There's he's not
going to strip clubs, he's not playing

645
00:42:01,639 --> 00:42:05,800
golf for eight hours a day.
He's just like sitting around painting miniatures.

646
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:07,599
Right, Can I write? I
sort of, But I feel like we

647
00:42:07,679 --> 00:42:12,559
don't have time in this episode.
But I feel like in the next episode,

648
00:42:13,119 --> 00:42:15,440
have you ever told the story of
like how you guys met and how

649
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:21,519
you broke up? Probably like years
ago. I don't know, we can

650
00:42:21,599 --> 00:42:23,480
tell that. That's a good story. Oh, thank you. Yeah,

651
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,079
but I also want to give a
little heads up about what we're going to

652
00:42:28,119 --> 00:42:32,079
be talking about on Patreon, making
you tell us so our kids through the

653
00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:37,400
years, yes, have had should
I say how should I say this?

654
00:42:37,559 --> 00:42:40,599
Like ups and downs with their friendships? Yeah? Not with each other?

655
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,960
No, Bella and LB have had
a very stable relationship. Yea, honestly

656
00:42:45,039 --> 00:42:49,639
from day one. For those of
you who are new to our show or

657
00:42:50,079 --> 00:42:53,199
don't remember this, Julie and I
met at the park when our kids were

658
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:57,760
like eighteen months old. They had
they definitely weren't two. We started going

659
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,920
to the same park and we started
to talking and we realized like we got

660
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:06,360
along and we were both bored and
had our one kid. And then Julie

661
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:10,480
was like, hey, does elbe
like Dora? And I was like,

662
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:15,840
well, of course, yeah.
So she was like having a birthday party

663
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,400
for Bella for she's turning too.
Do you want to come? And I

664
00:43:19,519 --> 00:43:22,679
was like okay, So I came
to the party and Albie hid in a

665
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:27,320
corner the whole time because she had
undiagnosed anxiety and was petrified. And Dora

666
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,159
had one of those big ass heads. It wasn't like just a Dora a

667
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,159
girl. It was like a girl
with this big head, giant Dora head.

668
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,400
Yeah, with the hair, and
so I feel you, Alb yeah

669
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,639
yeah, but Elbie wanted nothing to
do with it. But I was like,

670
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:43,039
act right, we're out of like
a party, we're meeting, you

671
00:43:43,119 --> 00:43:45,920
know, at that time, I
was pretty starved for new friends. So

672
00:43:45,199 --> 00:43:50,239
you know, anyway, we bonded
and we I think the girls have celebrated

673
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,639
their birthdays like almost yes, every
year ever since we became friends. Then

674
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:59,679
we brought my other friend Lara into
the mix because Lara was like Lara was

675
00:44:00,559 --> 00:44:04,239
paranoid and felt like I was going
to leave her for new mom friends.

676
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,280
You know, we get it.
We're all friends that have pools. I

677
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,079
mean, yes, she could not
offer the pool, so she was a

678
00:44:10,159 --> 00:44:15,639
little insecure about that. Well I
don't I didn't even know that Casey Kyson

679
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,039
was your dad, which not that
that would mean so much to everybody,

680
00:44:19,119 --> 00:44:22,039
but of course I'm a seventies kid, so you know, eighties kid.

681
00:44:22,119 --> 00:44:25,079
But I didn't even know that at
the time. But then when I found

682
00:44:25,119 --> 00:44:28,559
out, I think I did tell
her like, oh, you know,

683
00:44:28,679 --> 00:44:32,800
she's Kasey Kyson's daughter. And that's
when Lara was like, oh, great,

684
00:44:34,199 --> 00:44:38,559
so you're just moving on up in
the world social climbing mom friends.

685
00:44:38,599 --> 00:44:42,880
Oh now she oh. And then
so the next one I met another woman

686
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,840
at like a Jimberree or my gym, and she and this mom said she

687
00:44:49,039 --> 00:44:52,199
was like very lonely, kind of
had some postpartum and she was like,

688
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:53,920
oh, you know, I have
a pool. You could come over to

689
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,559
my pool and invite your invite some
other moms. So I was going to

690
00:44:58,599 --> 00:45:00,800
invite you and Lara. I go
to tell Lara and she was like,

691
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:07,679
wow, oh okay, So first
it's Kasey Kayson's daughter. Now it's somebody

692
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,039
with a pool, because you didn't
have a pool at that time. And

693
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,280
the funny thing is, even though
Laura it sounds like she might have been

694
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,039
kidding, deep down, she was
not kidding, not kidding, No,

695
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:21,480
not kidding at all. She'll tell
you that she Yeah, she was parannoying

696
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,039
and scared that I was going to
leave her yea for a friend while we're

697
00:45:25,079 --> 00:45:29,199
all like best of friends. In
fact, Laura just called me now while

698
00:45:29,199 --> 00:45:32,400
I'm sitting here talking to you,
and our girls are all good friends,

699
00:45:32,599 --> 00:45:37,440
yes, all really good friends,
still do stuff together, and your daughter

700
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,880
is at UCLA, yes, which
is pretty cool, Yes, pretty amazing.

701
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,400
So anyway, the point is,
over the years, though our girls

702
00:45:46,679 --> 00:45:53,559
had did not go to school together, never ye our own friendship stuff going

703
00:45:53,639 --> 00:46:00,400
on, but yours had a special
kind of kind of yeah hell with something.

704
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:06,800
Yeah, so elbe had a friend
that Stephanie called hot and cold back

705
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:13,679
in middle school, and Bella has
a friend hot and Cold in high school

706
00:46:14,079 --> 00:46:16,880
now college. They don't go to
the same school. But we'll talk about

707
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:21,880
that on Patreon. Yes, because
it's dicey and I don't want to.

708
00:46:22,199 --> 00:46:23,880
Yeah, I'm actually good, really
good friends with the parents. Yes,

709
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:28,800
that's what it gets even diceier exactly. Okay, but before we go,

710
00:46:29,079 --> 00:46:32,599
let's give a shout out to the
Family Skeptical, which is a podcast.
