Made a decision. I'll face sunny sad on I had a vision. So
what's up, everybody, It's for crying all out fcll mother. Is we
already did Patreon? Yes, we did. That's done a very good Patreon
surprising. Yeah, And we have a special guest episode this week with Kate
Casey from This Reality Life a lot of reality show time. We'll gossip with
her, yeah, I can't for sure. But before we even do any
of that, let's say hi to our people like Polly Pancakes and Valerie,
Bubba Fenwick and Athena Ginchard g Chard and Katerina get your moller checked and Hero
your kids love you as they should. Yeah, and Rita rocks the bassinet
with a lot all of everybody else, every single last one of them,
but especially Elizabeth Williams kids yea and Jacob Crowley is very growley and Aaron who
does And Rachel is still a newcomer yeah in her own way. And Randy
may aimes she may have one or two many names. Yeah, does not
have blue hair anymore, though that's because she does care now and Nikki call
you girls, and Ashley so chic and Leslie is oh gosh, still accosting
people and coughing. There's two less two. One can't stop coughing and one
can't stop accosting. Also, speaking of accosting, Gabby and Missy they're out
there, who they're out there? And I Shaan Vajpai still so cute.
Look at her, look out her. And Kelly Bryant is going to take
your kids to hip hop class whether you like it or not, so look
out. Lock your kids down, and Alicia from the City of al Monte
and uh and Sarah's the fun. Oh and Jennifer get up and Sandra it's
not easy being green and Krista get the strap and Stufe. Do you ever
do that thing with your kids whenever they talk, you talk over them,
you know, like you would you would do like what they're saying, like
mommy, I'm hung or on top of them saying and then they go,
stop you ever a torture your kids? Caleb, it's the best. Ye,
it's so fun. I love doing all the old classics. And we've
talked about this, like where you're listen they're singing along to the radio and
then you go like, oh, who who is this and they go,
it's Taylor swift and you go, yeah, let's keep it that way.
That one and then the one where you go where they're where they're trying to
tell you something but the music sloud, so you look like you're about to
turn down the music, but then you turn away up all right. I
would do the thing where inn Italia would be in her CARSI crying, crying,
crying, and then I would just push the window down and then blast
with air and stop her from crying for a second, and then roll it
back up and start crying again. Window goes down, blaster with the air.
She doesn't know what the deal, stop crying. That was fun.
Those are some good tips klaas yah. Yeah, learn from us how to
funk with your kids. I used to. I remember the one where I
go, I'll study in Italia. Your birthday's coming up this year. We
can't afford to birthday party, so we're just gonna flip a coin and have
one birthday party. That's a good one for twin. That was fun.
I canna compete, yes, Like I'm gonna give you guys a week and
like whoever's like the best kid does the most chores, Like that's who gets
a birthday party right, and the other one so sorry, see you next
year. Let's see you next year. But don't worry. Next year it'll
be fun it we'll have a great time, will do it up even better
than this year. But no, like what you know, my kids and
I I feel like people would be legitimately just horrified at the way my kids
and I talked to each other because years ago I would tell you that John
and I would just swear at each other constantly and you know, what's up,
asshole, like constantly, but you know, somewhere along the line,
and sadly it was not this year, it was. It's been a while.
But I just do that to my kids and they do it to me
all the time. And like my kids will like Sadie'll just be like,
Mom, why are you such a whore? Like that? And we laugh
like I don't. I think it's really funny. And the thing is like,
obviously they know better. They would never talk that way at school.
Like the thing that's interesting is they're really good kids and they're very respectful and
if it came to something that was like like they're not okay with any kind
of how do I put this, Like if you said something that wasn't politically
correct. They would call it like they would not think that's funny. But
somehow if you're saying, you know, calling it them, who's right or
like assholes or whatever, that's hilarious. Like they're totally down with that,
right, Yeah, I love it. And they do it all the time.
And Elbi is so funny with it too, like, and they we
love to deadpan it to each other, like Elbie'll be like, Mom,
I have a question for you. Why all the whorring? And we try
to like get each other with that, like like Sadie'll do it to like
Mom, it just seems like lately you've been such a whore. Like and
if they get like if I don't see it coming, it really makes me
laugh right right, if I see it coming, I'm like to slow.
It's called sense of humor, and that's good thing. But I just feel
like if somebody was listening in, they'd be like, wow, that's horrible
fishing your kids, you know. But then here I am on a pretty
big podcast letting you know that that my young children. My tween year old
called me a horror and I called them hors We love it, right,
Speaking of Horse Italia. She she had her wisdom teeth out, Oh yeah,
on Friday. And I guess, you know, everybody like Elbie had
hers out, Italia's got hers out, Gracie Suzanne's daughters getting hers out next
week. But so Sunny not so much. I don't know what the deal
is. But hers, she had all four had come out on Friday.
And the last time she's had surgery was when she was six five or six
and she had her adnoid and her tonsils taking out. And I just remember
she was at the children's hospital. She came out of it and at a
surgery, and she was really agitated and blah blah blah. But she was
so young back then, so I didn't even you know, I didn't really
think about back then. So you know, I take her on Friday.
We go to the dentist's office. He says, I really like the dentist.
He's like, you know, it'll will be done in thirty minutes.
And I was like, really, it's gonna be that fast and he's like
oh yeah. I said, all right, okay, so I'll wait go
oh yeah, Nassy. She'd be like, you're covered by insurance, right,
right, No, they never are going right now. So then so
I left my phone at home, so I was about to drop her and
and the dentist place was like right up the street, so I was gonna
drop her off, and then once she goes in, go back and get
my phone. But then they're like, He's like, I wouldn't go too
far. She's gonna be done in thirty minutes. I was reading a really
good article in the magazine, really sad about I'll tell you later. But
anyway, so okay, so i'm I'm I wait there for her. The
lady comes out, she's like, oh, while we were waiting to go
in for her surgery, two twin boys come walking out and they look like
you know with you know, the old school with the thing tied around their
head, the ice pack. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like I always
picture, Yes, I always picture the night stalker because because now hear me
Richard Ramirez, because when he was out night stalking and there was a sketch
of him on the news and he was in East LA and those gang bangers
found him and chased him down and beat the fuck out of him until police
showed up. He was in the back. There was a on the cover
of La Times Nightstalker caught and he's in the back of the police car with
thing around his head because he got beat looking so pathetic. Seventies cartoon.
Now go google it. If you don't believe me, go look it up.
That wasn't that's Natalia. Okay. So yeah, so they have the
ice pack that goes around the head all the way around that like ties up
the top velcros at the top. Of course, hair gets stuck. And
then anyway, so these two boys are walking out. They're like seventeen year
old boys, and their mom's with them, and she's walking with both of
them. You know, they just were put under and she good twins.
Mom knows how to get get her back. Get her to two for one,
right, that's what I was thinking over with, get it over with.
So I'm looking at the boys and they look and I go to Italia,
that's gonna be you. And they looked fine, like they were like
kind of like, you know, smiling a little whatever, like kind of
loopy out of it, sleepy, but fine. Okay, So they walk
out. So Natalia is not nervous. The only thing she's nervous is is
for the ivy. The ivy. She doesn't like that a part. Yeah,
So I said, okay, that's that'll be done in a second,
and then you'll be you'll be put out. You're they're gonna put you out,
Okay. So I'm waiting in the back. So I'm waiting for her
now not so much with Natalia. So the lady comes out and she goes,
your daughter's done. She did fine, she's in the little recovery room,
like you can come back and get her. She's crying, and I
was like, oh, I didn't even like. I was like, you
know, I didn't think like you're gonna get your teeth pulled, You're gonna
go home. I'm gonna wait on you. You'll be fine, you'll be
back at school on Monday. Have a good day. So she's crying,
I was like, huh oh, oh, all right, So she is
not even crying, she's pissed. She was like, there's supposed to.
First of all, she wanted to keep spitting, and the nurse was like,
no, you can't spit. No spitting, no sucking, no you
know, no straws, no spitting. She kept saying like I want to,
you know, I'm trying. I don't I want to spit, and
the lady was like, you can just dab, dab your lip, don't
spit, just dab, and she's like, slip. She's not listening to
the lady. She's just spitting all over herself, all over the lady,
all over me. She's got gauze in her mouth, she's crying, she's
upset. And I was like, and then she's giving me. The lady's
giving me instructions, you know, go ignoring it, just ignoring n italiat
like telling me what you know what to do. Then the medication is called
in at the by the way, call the medication in like the night before,
because then I get in Italia situated and I call the right a pharmacy
and they're like, yeah, I'm not ready yet. It'll be ready in
forty five minutes. And they're like, she can take a she can you
know, she can take a pain medicine as soon as she gets home if
if you want her, you know, because once the stuff starts wearing off,
you're gonna want to be on top of it, right the you know,
the high ibuprofen whatever. So I was like, okay, So so
I'm now Natali is upset. So as soon as we walk out, she's
like, they didn't even put me under. They didn't put me out.
They didn't put me out. I was awake the whole time, and I
go, I don't think so, Natalia, I think you were put out.
I told you it was gonna be so fast you're gonna think. And
she's like, no, I'm telling you, they didn't put me out.
They didn't put me out. Okay. The doctor calls later on the check
and I said, she's saying that you didn't put her out, and he
goes, oh, no, we put her out. She was out,
That's what I thought. So she's screaming, cry, give me this,
give me that. I can't. You know, she's irritated. She can't
get comfortable. I get her at home. She already makes a bed for
her on the couch, puts all her blankets down there. But yet she's
putting gauze in, then taking the gauze out, spitting gauze in, gauze
out. She can't get comfortable. I'm like, just go to sleep,
Go to sleep, just like I'm like Bethany, like you know, on
a scary island, like just go to sleep. Yelling at her, trying
to have patient like, I know, I know, you just cry and
I can't understand her because she's an I'm my mouth, I'm all swollen.
I go, you're not that swollen. You're not. So I give her
a mirror so she can see, especially when she's drinking water. She can't
drink out of a straw, drinking water, she's dribbling. I get her
a mirror so she can see. It's just a blood bath and a shit
show. And I'm trying to get her settled. And finally I'm like,
oh my god, and I'm making stew soup so the night before in a
crackpot so that she can have that for you know, when she's hungry.
Okay, she's not hungry yet, even though she can't eat or drink from
the night before. Blah blah blah. She's just all she can think about
is the gauze going in. The gauze is coming out, the gauzes,
and she's ripping it out of her mouth, and I'm like, you have
stitches back there, bitch, be gentle, don't just rip it. She's
hysterical and Natae is not really a crier. This must have been a reaction
to the anesthesia. Yes, So I'm thinking, okay, So I tell
Sonny keep an eye on her. I'm going to the I'm gonna go to
the Rite Aid to go get you know, because Elbie had her and she
was like, I think she's a universal the next day, right see,
so okay, so she was like ready to drive later. I was like,
you can't drive for the rest of the day. She was like,
I feel fine, right. She never took a pain poll. Yeah,
see, every and the doctor says everybody's different. Like, I'm like,
I saw those twins walk out. They were fine, and he's like every
the anesthesia, like everybody can fuck you up. Yes. So I go
to write aid. I come back, She's out, sound asleep. I'm
like, thank God. But then I'm like, okay, she didn't that
They said she should take the pain med when when you get it, because
once this thing starts to wear off, it's gonna hurt. So I'm like,
I don't. I don't know what to do. So so I call
Olgad. I'm like, she sound asleep. Do I just let her sleep?
She goes no, I would wake her up and make her take it.
And I was like I kind of don't want to make her up like
she was a screen. I know, because she has a lot of she's
she's numb, right, so probably when she would wake up, I don't
know that she would necessarily be in that much pain. Yeah, see I
didn't know, so I was so I was afraid. So I wake her
up. She was. I was ready for battle, another blood bath.
She just woke up, no problem. I give her the pill. I
said, take this. She takes it, she swallows it, she puts
the thing gently back in her mouth out again. Then she wakes up.
Then I see her and I like, I'm in the kitchen, I'm watching
her, and she wakes up, like a few hours later, and right,
oh boy, here we go. I'm like, how are you doing?
How you doing? Totally fine? She didn't even remember. She was
like, I don't even remember coming home. And I was like, anesthesia,
Yes, it really affects her. Good to know though, right for
like later, right and now. I was thinking when she had her surgery,
she was a nightmare. When she came out of anesthesia. Same thing.
She wanted the thing off her finger. You know, when you're in
the hospital they put the thing blood pressure thing she was a nightmare, and
then when she fell asleep and woke up later, she was fine and doesn't
even remember, so she doesn't remember anything. But I was like, holy
fuck, like Jesus, like, is it a girl thing? Like I
see the boys. The boys that I'm thinking to myself, Sonny would probably
be fine. I don't know, but Natalia she just was a nightmare.
But when she woke up, she was totally fine. She's been fine after
that and she's just been resting. She still has pain. Really. I
think it's because in the beginning she kept taking the things, the gauze in
and out, and she was She still was bleeding a lot the next day.
So still here she is on a Monday. She's home not feeling good.
Last night she was in pain. When did she have it on Friday?
Friday? M hm, afternoon. Yeah. She should be good in
another day, I hope. So I think she'll have a follow up,
probably in a week. Yeah, No, they didn't have I don't they
said that. The Oh yeah, I guess it was such a blur for
me too. They're giving me all this instructions and she's just screaming and crying,
blood coming out, spitting trying to spit, trying not keep her from
spitting. Don't spit. Yeah, that sounds really hard. Yeah, it
was is the polar opposite. Although when she was younger, she had to
have like four teeth pulled. I'm trying to remember if the first no,
she's she's had teeth pulled where she had to be put out because she had
to have adult teeth pulled, and then she and that was a couple years
before the Wisdom teeth. But yeah, she woke up a sheet. Well
John took her right. I can't remember why, but I think I think
it was like suit right after I broke my foot so I couldn't do anything.
So anyway, John took her. And then when she came in the
house, she was just being funny and she was like her raw like laughing,
and John Kavidio she was going to be a good day. Then she
went to sleep. Then she woke up a few hours later. Never was
like hurting enough to take a pain pill. And then literally by like the
next day, maybe not the very next day. The next day she was
up and around and doing stuff. And then the day after that she was
literally universal all day. I'm fine, so I know I guess everybody's different,
but I respond to anesthesia. I I've had some really bad reactions.
I've had a bad reaction going under to the point where I thought this was
many years ago. I was like twenty It was when I had a brust
reduction surgery. I remember I'm feeling anxious even thinking about it when they gave
me the first medication. So you know how they'll give you a medication when
you go under, and they say this is going to relax you, and
then then they give you the next one to put you to sleep and go
count from a hundred. Well, somehow they gave me something. It's the
paralytic drug that makes it so that you don't move during surgery. Well,
I was a hundred percent sure that I couldn't breathe and that I was dying
like I could. I thought I couldn't breathe, and I was trying to
tell them ill. I mean, I swear to god, I remember this
like it was yesterday, and it was like thirty something years ago. And
I remember trying to tell them like in it like you're in a nightmare and
you can't scream like that, And I was like, oh my god,
I can't breathe that I'm going to die, and they don't know because I
in my mind, I'm like, well, I must not be hooked up
to a monitor yet, so they don't know because I'm clearly I'm not breathing.
I can't breathe, so I think I eked out like I can't read,
you know, and they're like, no, you're breathing. And then
I was like like nodding my head like I'm not and I started to panic
and they're like, okay, we're putting you out right now, and then
they put me out. I've had quite a few surgeries since then, more
minor surgeries like for five woods and stuff, and I've always been like,
listen, I get I don't know what it is, but I don't have
always have a good reaction to anesthesia, so like put me out fast,
and they do, like they're like, okay, now when I get put
out, I always tell them I go, I had a really bad reaction
once and I'm scared of it, so just put me out and they're like
okay, gonn, I wow, we can do that. Yeah. You
know. You hear all these nightmares of people like oh I woke up during
surgery and jazz Like I'm like, fuck that shit. Oh yeah, all
right, we have to take a quick break to talk. You know what,
Let's talk about something that is absolutely helpful for anxiety of all kinds that
if you want. This is basically how you take a chill pill. This
is a literally chill pill. Yes, micro dose, it's Loomy Labs product,

My brain just kind of all the noise gets shut down and I can just
and it's and you don't feel high. I feel like, oh, oh
my god, like a lighten Like I like, the anxiety and the stress
kind of just is lifted. That's how John describes it. And John some
you know, it is kind of having to be self motivated, and he's

So Natalia, who's always on the go, go go, is now downtime,
which I love. She's got like a you know, revolving door of
first her boyfriend's coming over, then her friends are coming over, then her
boyfriend's coming back, then her friends or other friends are coming like cat.
But then so I made plans to go out on Saturday night. I haven't.
I haven't gone out a while, So I made plans to go with
my girlfriends, and uh, Natalie was like, what are you doing?
Are you you gonna? Can you watch movies with me tonight? And I
was like, oh, I thought that you had friends coming over right now.
Everybody's busy, So and so's working. Her boyfriend can't come over,
he's got this to do. So I was like, oh, yeah,
of course, yes, Like I've been wanting to watch a movie with her.
So we were like, okay, well, movie to watch, blah
blah blah. So then she was in the She saw this scary movie in
the movie theater called talk to Me. Have you heard of this? Oh?
Yeah, have you seen it? I have not. I've heard very
very good things about it, though. Well, Natalia saw it in the
movie theater, and I remember her calling me and saying, I saw the
scariest movie. And she loves scary movies and she was terrified. She was
like, I could not sleep alone. I had to go to her friend
Devin's house to spend the night. She did not want to be alone.
She was freaked out in the dark. She said her friend had to leave
in the middle of the movie. She was like, it was the scariest
Like a Facebook ad for this movie. How they're like people are saying they
can't get through the first two minutes. I remember the back in the day
when they were like when The Exorcist came out and they were like, people
are throwing up right and the out the the Witch Blair Witch Project. Yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. People are having heart attacks. Remember
how scary they that scared was, yeah, and that was supposed to be
a good thing. People are happy to be hospitalized. This movie. You're
like, oh my god, I must see it immediately. People are in
comas, you know. So she's so, she's so. So we're looking
on iTunes for like a movie to watch, and that comes up and she
goes, Mom, that movie is so scary, and I go, can
we watch it, and she's like really, like do you really like you're
you're gonna sleep with me tonight? Then? And I'm like, okay,
so we watched time I'll sleep with my daughter? Hell yes, oh yeah,
so we watch it. It was good, but it wasn't like I
wasn't. You know. Do you feel like if you were at the theater
you would have been more scared or do you feel like this was like a
peer pressure, like oh my gosh, I'm with my friends and let's let's
all get hysterical about it. I mean, I think absolutely being in a
theater it would have been a different than sitting in the living room and watching
it. Like what's it about? It's about this, Okay, this girl
and her teenage friends. There's this hand that's like a like it looks like
as if somebody took a cast of a hand, you know, like plaster
of Paris, and it's just sitting like as if the hand is reaching out
and it's from the elbow all the way. Okay, So they take the
hand, they sit it down on the table, They light a candle,
they say, talk to me. You grab the hand, and you see
a spirit immediately. Whoever's in the chair. But you can only do it
for sick for ninety seconds. Otherwise the spirit will stay with you if you
go longer than ninety second. So you see the dead, And how did
they find out that that's a thing. They're just they're men dangers. Yeah,
they're like, after ninety seconds, it's all over. Tis got right?
Okay, Yeah, it's a whole felt possessed by a spirit, so
you don't so cut it off at eighty nine seconds, right, okay.
So and they make it a you know, it's a it's a thing.
They get parties together and people do it and they're like, I want to
do it, and I want to do it, okay. And also they
learned about a special teeth whitening thing the spirit with the hand. And also,
oh, this is a great way to get your teeth white, right
TikTok is? So yes, So you say that and then the spirit shows
up and then you gotta cut it off anyway. Suffice to say, obviously
somebody doesn't cut it off at ninety seconds, and then the spirit is around.
So and the girl, the main girl, her mom passed away and
she, you know, kind of wanted to talk to her mom. So
you know, hilarity ensues, right anyway, it's it's that's kind of what
it's about. And you know, of course there's jump scares and shit like
that, and of course it's gross, like you're looking at dead people and
you know that guys are off, you know. And then there's like graphic
scenes where the kid like as they like bang his head against the wall and
like one guy stabs him. He can't take it, so he stabs himself
in the eye. Oh yeah, it's graphic like that kind of stuff.
I know it doesn't bother me because I know it's not real, right,
But I like psychological throwing me too much more than just gore for the sake
of Like, I will never watch there's some movie like like a Saw movie
or anything where they're like taking hostages from like in a hotel and killing it.
I don't know, I'm sure there's a movie like that. I don't
want to see that. What I don't understand wanting to watch people be gruc
tortured and killed. Yeah. Now, Like I loved the sixth Sense because
I was like, oh, it's like it's like I like movies that are
about real people like that have combined slice of life with something that you know,
like a ghost story or something where and even the twist at the end,
it's just yes, yeah, it's as good. She's seen the sixth
Sense. So so I always loved the others with Nicole Kidman huh and that
kind of hat Did you ever see that show? Yeah? Okay, So
I was so after we watched her dumb scary movie that didn't really do much
for me, but I I was like, oh yeah, oh god,
Mom, isn't it really scary? I was like yeah, huh, it's
like okay, So like I'm so scared. Please, let's can we watch
one that I want you to watch? And then we're flipping through and then
we see the Texas chainsaw masker. This is exactly what I don't want to
see, right, And then I was like I've never seen it and she
was like, yeah, it's supposed to be scared. So I'm like,
all right, let's just let's fast forward through some of it. Let's just
get to it like obviously, like right, so we see it is so
I read to see the mailman coming over the whole like, oh, I've
got a letter for you. Hey, do you want to invite me inside
for some iced tea. Like, let's skip through that, right. So
we're watched and we read we read the synopsis what it's about. So we
get the gist. Okay, they're in you know, a van traveling or
whatever. They passed the meat factory, the butcher and so we fast forward
and we get to like the real stuff, right, and it tells like
this is dumb, And I'm thinking, you think this is dumb? What
about your dumb movie? But okay, so we get through that anyway,
I'm like, can we watch the others now? Please? So we put
on the others. We get half hour into it, this bitch falls asleep.
Of course she does, How dare you, Natalia? No? I
know? So then I was like, okay, I'm going to bed.
So I turned the TV off. We went to sleep, and that was
that. But she says that today after when I come home, she said,
we can watch it. So I'll let you know. Oh, thank
you, Natalia. Ya, it's gonna stay away. What's the scariest movie
you've seen? Klin? Probably one of my favorite horror movies. It came
out a few years ago. It's called Hereditary. I just watched it.
Yeah, that one, was it really scary? I would say it was
pretty scary. Yeah, that's a good one. Here's the problem with scary
movies. They're not real, Like, no matter what's happening, you know
what I mean, Like, here's how you can scare the funk out of
me. A documentary, Yeah, like a scary documentary, Like if it
really happened, then I'm in like, oh god, that could happened to
somebody. But like as soon as you're like, oh, this is a
horror movie that it's meant to scare you, don't Isn't it hard to suspend
your disbelief, aren't you? Just like? No, I love horror movies
and yeah, and all the bloody ones and that. Yeah, they'll scare
the crap out of me, and I love it. There was one that
came out last year that's very violent and very scary and very good. It's
called Smile. Very creepy too. Oh I've seen it. I kept looking
at it because we're looking for scary movies. I kept seeing this Smile thing.
You watch it? No, Well, it's it's like, you know,
it's like the other one. It's very violent, but it's very creepy
and it's a good that was a good one from I like creepy, but
documentaries that's basically. I just watched ones called The Long Island, you know,
right, serial Killer. I watched that about the guy. Yeah,
they just caught that, They just caught. Yeah, that was interesting.
I just watched a documentary that was so good because because our guest Kate Casey.
It's called Never Let Him Go. It was one of the ones on
her list. It's a four part documentary. It's one of the best documentaries
I've seen in a long time. Really, Never let Him Go. Never
Let Him Go. Okay, So it's about it's about a guy who either
who they thought committed suicide, we don't say committed suicide, died by suicide
in Australia. And he was gay, and he was in his twenties,
and there was a rash of LGBTQ hate crimes happening around the same time.
But the Australian police they trapped it up to a suicide because they found his
clothes and like his ID, so he could easily be identified in any way.
His brother fought for like over thirty years to try to find out what
actually happened to him. There's so many good kind of wists. It's like
there's a there's a female police officer who you think you're gonna love at the
beginning. Well, and we'll talk about this with Kate, but in case
anybody doesn't listen to our interview episodes, you think it's one of those ones
where you're like where you're at. First in the first episode, you're like,
Okay, does this need to be four episodes? Like what are we
going to do for four whole episodes? Right? But then like the second
episode, you're like, okay, yeah, and you could have concluded it
here. But then the third episode like kind of takes a turn and you're
hearing all about this officer who was like the only woman on this all male
like team investigative team investigating homicides. And at first you're like, oh my
gosh, like how cool, Like she's like feminist power, like oh,
but then by the end of that episode, you're like this woman is a
full on bitch, like fuck her. And it's like and then anyway,
and it's it's got a good a good ending. It's got a lot of
like where you're like, well, but but is it or isn't it or
is it or are they? Are we ever gonna find out? Is this
gonna be thinking? And it's really really really good. I like stuff like
that where you're like sad because you're like I can't believe this happened, but
you're also like really invested in it. I don't know. That's the kind
of thing that Yeah, I like that. I love it. Like like
remember when we years ago when we watched Dear Zachary, Yes, and it's
like that I was crying. I felt like I'm not kicked in the stomach,
Like there's if you don't know what happens in that documentary. You start
off all innocent, just like, oh, this is kind of sad,
and then you're like, oh my god, Like that is one of the
best documentaries. Like I don't like to be scared, but I like to
be I like to be made sad. Yeah, me too? Is that
weird? Now? I like it too. I think Dear Zachary is one
of the best documents. And it kind of had some sense of humor here
and there. Do you remember that? Yeah, because it's the friend who's
making the documentary, so you're like, he's friend a friend, right,
he has some humor about his friend. It's not like the mom made the
documentary and is right, it's all sad, right, right, Yeah,
but that knocked me out, like I couldn't function for like a day,
I know, after I saw that. Yeah, and then I'll get like
John will just be like, why do you do that to yourself? Because
I love something crying. He's like, why would you watch that? And
I'm like, well, why do people watch I guess scary movies like right,
Like I don't like that feeling, right, I don't want to feel
anxious. I should feel morbidly depressed, like like a normal person, right,
who doesn't want to just be crying their eyes out and not able to
like have to go to sleep, right, I know. Yeah, I
haven't seen a good documentary in a long time. So what's it called.
It's called Never Let Him Go, Never Let Him Go? Yeah, it's
I believe it's Ulu. Yeah, I'm almost sure was on Hulu. Okay,
Oh my god, I watched Also Winning Time. Did you watch the
last episode? Assholes are going to talk about it? The last one yet?
Oh my god, it's so good. I don't It's like the best.
I look forward to it. The only thing that really really really sucked
was I thought it was gonna be like ten episodes. It's not. It's
over only seven. So last night was the last one. But we didn't
know. John and I both didn't know, so we were all excited.
You know. We turn it on and it like gets to the end and
it fucking wraps up, and you're like, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, slow down, Like there's so much more. You could
have done three more episodes, but it's all in the like they tell you
basically what happens. They chirron, you know, they tell you, and
you're like, what you lazy assholes, like make the make more episodes?
How right? So mad, it's so good. I have not watched one
episode yet, so I'm gonna love it. I know, I can't wait
yesterday or no on Saturday. So years ago, when I was first dating
John, I really tried to like football because he was really into football,
and so I would you know, and I like, I like a story
behind, you know, should we do should we do another ad? Real
quick? And then we will rap with this. This episode is sponsored by

so back in the day, I needed like some kind of a story
behind the teams, like and John knows that about me. So he told
me about the coach of the Giants years ago, not Tom Coughlin, the
coach before that. Oh my god, what's his name? Put up her
coach coach of the Giants. Oh my god, you guys are gonna know
who I'm talking about. People are gonna be yelling coach before Tom Coughlin.
He's still a coach anyway. He told me. Jim Fossil. Okay,
Jim Fossil. So, Jim Fossil. He told me was this code was
not? Hadn't been like anyway. He basically promised the team that he was
going to get him to the playoffs, to the super Bowl or to the
playoffs whatever, you know, I don't know, I don't know that much
about it. Whatever. And then he did and he was like supposed to
be one of the nicest coaches. Like he did it by not screaming and
yelling at his players, but by being nice. So he John gave me
like somebody to root for, Like we got to root for this coach.
It's a really nice guy. So then I became like really into the Giants
and Tiki Barber and like I had Michael Strahan and I had the players that
I liked well. And then and then I could like really get girlfriend points.
I like, oh, I really like football. You know, I
didn't know that much about it, but then then you get interested because you're
kind of invested. And then I would ask questions and like learn about plays
and like, you know, I'm off for like yelling for my team and
you know whatever. Betting, you know, I like to gamble a little
bit. But then I had LB and it was like, well, that
out the window, because when you have a kid, I don't I mean,
I'm sure there are many women who are actual football fans who like,
don't let having a baby stop them from enjoying football. But remember I was
kind of playing at liking football in the first place, so I was still
holding on by a thread to my love of football. I didn't really have
a true deep love of football, yea, So it was very easy to
just be like, I can't like I have a baby. Then only a
couple of years later, I had twins. So John would complain like,
oh, you never want to watch football anymore, and I was like,
bitch, I got babies, you know, but I have to tell you
that I sat down. He was he's been. And then John went through
a really long period where he because of the concussions, and he didn't like
the way the NFL was dealing with, you know, not being straight with
the players about CTE and all that stuff. He was like kind of boycotting
it for a while, which was fine with me. I was like,
yeah, that's what I'm doing. I'm boycotting it. Not that I'm too
busier and interested. I'm just like morally opposed to football, like you,
honey, you know. But then now John's feels like enough has been,
like the players know what they're getting into and blah, blah blah. So
now he's kind of kind of watching it again. Saturday, he was watching
the Colorado Colorado State, which is Colorado game, and I was like,
you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna get back to girlfriend points, right almost
nineteen years later. Yeah, when you talk about getting into it for a
story too, the story behind Colorado is great, right, yea with Sanders
and like, so johnn is the quarterback, he's another son that plays on
defense, and he's like he took this team that was horrible and now they're
they're incredible. They were like one in ten, they were right eleven last
year and now they're three and now. But Sanders, yeah, before that,
they coach the opposing team was talking shit about Deon Sanders too, so
leading up to the game, they were all like, oh, this is
personal cult of the opposing team of Colorado State is a dick. Yeah,
oh so and yes, so all I needed, like I sat down to
just earn some girlfriend points and be like, I'll watch football with you.
And of course that's an invitation to John to like, you know, he's
an encyclopedia about everything. He's like, oh, you're gonna sit down with
me? Puts his arm around me. He's like, okay, so here's
what. So he tells me all the stuff, which so he's like,
well, I said, who are we rooting for? And he's like,
well, it's kind of complicated because Colorado State is the underdog. But Colorado
Deon Sanders and Dion Sanders came in and basically was like, I'm gonna turn
this team around. I'm going to send you all packing. What did he
say about his Louis Vatan? He was like, uh, yeah, he
was being very kind of braggy and brash and like he fired he made a
bunch of the players from the team transfer and then he brought in Yes.
He was like fuck this you you all are not hard workers and like you're
not here to win, and like because they were a losing team, right,
so he was like bye this. Of course, I was like,
well where did they? Did they transfer to good schools? They definitely not
not with that record. They weren't like getting scholarships for you know, maybe
a few of them. And so now I'm feeling bad as mom of a
college kid. I'm like, well, I can't finish their education like that
anyways. Yeah, but so Colorado State though, were a bunch of fucking
bitches in this game, so many personal fellows, Like I'd never seen anything
like it. They sent one kid to the hospital. Oh my god.
And that kid they sent to the hospital is a star. He's like,
he's amazingly. He plays two positions. He plays receiver and cornerback right,
and they injured him, yeah, on purpose, a dirty hit black for
the play. Hospital. Yeah. After the play, the guy, uh
personal, they call it targeting, so it was even worse than a regular
personal thought, like they were trying to get him out of the game.
Couldn't see what was happening. So he's a receiver, so they threw the
ball and he's looking up to get the ball. It goes over his head,
but another kid flew across the field from the other side and just laid
him out after the ball had already passed yep. Yeah, And he ended
up having to go to the hospital and he was out for the rest of
the game. So I got I like I might be back in and I
was like, this is not even NFL, this is just college football.
And I was like, this was actually like I was genuinely as excited as
if I was kind of watching a movie, Like I watched the whole and
they went into it went into double overtime. Wow. Yes, I'm not
going to spoil it for you, but what University of Colorado Dion sanders team
one. But they were behind almost the whole time and then like it was
kind of like a Mayor racle at the end. It was like super exciting
all the way through. At one point, I was like, why did
you drag me into this? Only for like the team that I'm now rooting
for, but I hadn't even heard of before I sat down, And now
I'm invested, and they're going to freaking lose, right, And then they
came There was two minutes left and Dion sanders Son the quarterback, led a
ninety eight yard drive the game and then they had to do the extra Yeah,
they had to do a two point conversion. It was amazing. What
time did the game end? Oh? Late? It was playing until like
late at night like it started. It didn't start untill seven, so I
think I was still watching it like eleven, okay, eleven, Yeah it
was. It was a nighttime game. Yeah yeah, wow, but that
was so that was fun. That's fun. Oh, I know, And
I felt like I didn't want John to be like, oh, so you
like football now, because I wanted it to feel like a special treat.
Yeah like that, I damned to sit down with him to watch football.
But now I just might kind of be into it. Yeah, college football's
fun, yeah, especially now that we have college kidsge you know. But
I think I was the reason I thought of that too, is because of
the watching winning time. I was like, god, I'm kind of starting
to see why people love sports and love their team and hate certain teams.
And like the Celtics, man, they were assholes. Yeah yeah, Boston
is like they played dirty and like the fan the Boston fans are insane,
insane. I know, they were, you know, surrounding like the Lakers
store of bus and like trying to attack them and throw it like calm down.
Yeah. Now the East Coast teams are hardcore. Yeah. We're here
out in La la La Land. You know, everybody comes here from someplace
else, right, everybody's a New England Patriot fan out here because they're from
you know, there's just like but like yesterday, like Natalia's boyfriend was watching
One Day football, like she was watching she was doing the girl thing girlfriend
thing with him. She was watching football with him and it was Rams versus
the forty nine ers, and I'm thinking the whole time, Oh, he
must he's got to be this kid grew up here, he's got to be
a Rams fan or whatever. No, he's rooting for the San Francisco forty
nine ers. I was like, are you why. He's like, I
don't know. It's my dad's team, so I just's always been my team.
And I was like, oh, all right, but how dare you?
Exactly so rude? Yeah, you're the good things. Sonny's not here.
He's watching football with his dad, rooting for the Rams like he should
be. It's so funny, though, because I see the addict in me
that comes out that's like, oh, well now I want to go,
like go see a game. And I'm like, well, oh how much
our Lakers season tickets? They're very expensive? But you know what I mean,
Like my brain just starts to go, oh, I guess I'm into
basketball now all the things. Let's go to watch a game. We should
yeah, yeah, because I'm like, oh, Saturday, now I'm watching
college football. Let me figure out, like, how could I go to
a college football game? Like, I know, a bookie for you start
gambling. Yeah, but you know, like you can go to UCLA games.
Yeah. Yeah, we used to go to UCLA when my kids were
into basketball, all of them. We would go see UCLA women's team,
yeah play and it was really fun and exciting. But I just wasn't that
invested. We used to go to the UCLA football games because Drew and Susan
would always have tickets, so we just go to their house. But the
kids, the kids were you know, I don't know, in fifth grade
whatever, take them and their friends to the game and we would sit by
the students section. All the students were right next to us, and it
was so fun. They would do their whole U se la you know whatever
chant they did. Yeah, it was fun. Well, Robin, oh,
Rob, she goes to all the UC games because she went to use
CLA, right, and if LB ends up going to use CLA, that
would be super excited for me. Now there you go. Yeah, that
would be fun. So I mean she's applying that's awesome. We'll see,
we'll see. Yeah, all right, let's been Okay. Tune into our
