Made a decision have Pace Sunny Sun on. I hadasion night. So what's
up everybody. Welcome to for crying out loud. I'm so excited. It's
our Friday show. YEP, lots to talk about, last to talk about.
Sometimes our Friday show happens and we're like, got nothing. We did
a good Patreon this week to get check it out. Yeah, a really
good one, I think. Yeah, it's kind of relatable. Yeah yeah,
yes, unless people want to judge us and judge away and funk off.
Yeah you want to get mad, go ahead, good, get mad
get. We don't care. It's your opinion. It's your opinion. Yeah,
we have a podcast, but we get a podcasting at our audience.
Yeah, you guys get a podcast. Let's see what you guys come up
with. Sometimes I think about that and I'm like, we're getting paid to
talk about our personal lives and then people get to just sit back and judge
the hell out of our personal lives and say whatever they want and are on
the Facebook and disagree with us, and it's like all right, but like
it's not a two way street, Like I don't get to disagree with your
choices. Yes, right, And it's like you know, well, they
put their lives out there, so you know, that's that's part of the
comes, part of the part of the business, except that we're not famous.
That's the thing, I know. So you're choosing. It's not like
it's being foisted upon you, like it's on the ABC lineup. Yeah,
that you kind of have to watch. Well, even if it was streaming,
turn on Netflix, find something else to watch. Well, that's the
thing. Like if you don't like, you know, like I know,
there's certain people that are hate listeners, you know, yeah, and God
bless you because I do the same thing. I hate watch things. I
hate listen to things too sometimes like what like like like like some of the
some of the Housewives, I don't I'm turned off by good example, yes,
And I just like, like, I know Lisa Vanderpunpt does a lot
for dogs, but I don't like the way she flaunts her rich and it's
like, yeah, I'm you know, good for her and everything, but
like her and her husband, it's like, we get it, you're rich.
You don't have to drive a pink fucking Bentley around Like I don't know,
it's just it's a turn off to me. And some of the other
housewives. You said you were watching Orange County. Oh my god, I
just started watching Orange County and I like watching it. I don't like I
don't know if I like any of them. I don't like any of them.
They're all terrible. The only one I kind of remember liking was Gina
from Jersey. But she's annoying. She's annoying, but like Heather bugs a
fuck out of me, and she's just like a I don't know, she
just seems like a fame whore. See here we are judging everybody. Alexis
is on. So Alexis, Yeah, Jesus drugs. She's back. She's
back, and she's dating Shannon's ex boyfriend. So Shannon had a boyfriend for
a couple of years named John Janssen. Yeah, John, and now yes,
and Alexis is dating him. Now. It's a it's all whole toxic
mess. But you know, Shannon got a massive d UI yet, I
don't know if like a bigger DUI a big d UI. Well, she
was triple the legal limit, and she hit an apartment building or a house
or something, right with her dog in the car, with her dog in
the car exactly, and she's still drinking because she's like, I don't have
a drinking problem, really not an alcoholic. Yeah. So she's mad because
a lot of the other women are like, you have you thought about maybe
quitting drinking or like going to rehab and she's like, no, I like
drinking. I'm just having two drinks too, and that's all I'm having.
But then they showed they had this scene where Tamra's at the gym with Emily,
who I also don't like, yeah, and has like sort of it
seems like an abusive husband, Shane, Right, she's always like, wow,
I've Shane. Anyway, they're together and then Tamra, who I also
don't like at all. Right, but Tamra's telling a story about how post
Dui, Shannon's talking about the Dui and she's not drinking or whatever, and
they went there doing some live event together and she's like and then Shannon.
So she's Tamra's mad at Shannon kind of not not distancing herself because she said.
They go to this live event and Shannon's like, I'm not drinking.
But then she sees her with her coke go over to the bar or whatever
and pour herself pour vodka into her drink. So she was like, it's
just fake. It's just like what is she doing? You know which,
Listen, I'm not judging, like I'm it's not really judgment. It's just
like I don't want to say I've been there because I haven't had a DUI
and I haven't. I haven't gone through that. But I feel like it's
hard to watch somebody, especially as a reformed drinker. It's hard to it's
hard to watch somebody be at that level of denial. And also with Shannon,
it sometimes doesn't feel it doesn't feel well, it's just it feels like
also entitlement. Yeah, it's like, but I'm Shannon, Yeah, and
I should and I'm different and I have had a hard life and I should.
Yeah, and I've but I watch that and I just go I've seen
it. I've heard the stories. I have a lot of friends who have
been where Shannon is, and you just know where this story goes. Yea.
So it's it's not even like a hate watch. It's more like just
like a yeah, boy, army watch arms crossed. It's okay, girl,
yeah wow, I want to like send her just go call me.
But like what I gotta watch it now. But yeah, so, I
mean, yeah, that's to our topic. Hate watch. But I wouldn't
watch Orange County Housewives and then contact each of them and they're wrong in their
lives and I disagree, well, mostly because they would never respond to me.
That's where we go wrong. We were we invite it. We're like,

that? Sure? I don't know if I want to get into this.
What is it? What's it about? Well? I was gonna bring it.
I don't know, maybe save it for next week, but I was
gonna talk. Okay, I know this is an old story, but uh
so, you know, I like to fall asleep to documentaries, like like
true crime stuff. I don't know why, but it just lulls me to
sleep. So there's a on twenty. There's like a twenty like you go
to Hulu and sometimes twenty twenties, you know, top five betrayal episodes,
and I'm like, okay, let me see what this is all about.
So I click on it. I'm trying to get filled to watch with me.
So wake up, wake up, pay attention. This is gonna be
good. So there's like a different bunch of different episodes. There's the one
uh uh, well, there's that the one where the where he killed his
wife, he and he killed his two children, his two daughters and put
him in the oil tank. There's that one Chris watch Chris wats thank you
and anyway. So then there's the slender Man one. Okay, so I
know this is an old story, but I I wanted to watch it because
now I don't I mean, I kind of remember the story, but I
wanted to see after reading about it. One of the girls turns out has
schizophrenia, Oh, early onset schizophrenia, and she her father and her but
her father, you're right there, Stephanie, not the glasses off her faith.
Okay, her father has schizophrenia. Okay, but but you know,
they the parents never really knew that she had it. They just thought she
was quirky. She was twelve. Was this where the three girls, yes,
this went and murdered or two girls murdered. Two girls went out and
took they had to sleepover. They were in sixth grade, they were twelve,
and they took their third friend. They planned it for months to kill
her, and they took her to the woods and stabbed her a bunch of
times, but she survived. She crawled away right, And they blamed slender
Man. And they the two of them thought that they had to do it
for to be safe from slender Man. Okay, they thought that slender Man
would kill their family if they didn't. Well, one of them said that,
and it's the one that had early on set schizophrenia. But the parents
really didn't know. And do you think she really did, yes, that
she had it. Yeah, she really believed that about slender Man. Or
do you think she's just a sociopath that wanted to she's a sociopath, but
also she was she was you know with early like sometimes with schizophrenia, they
hear voices or they think that someone's talking to them and telling them to do
stuff right. And that's what was happening with her because I was watching her
interview with the with the detective in the and then I was watching the other
one being interviewed, the other girl who I don't think who doesn't have schizophrenia.
But it was a perfect storm because she was, she had she was,
she had something else. I cannot can't remember what it was, but
she was like depressed, and at that age they can confuse reality with fantasy
very easily. And she hooked, happened to hook up with the other girl
that has schizophrenia and is being told that the Splendor, Miss slender Man is
trying to kill her families and this is what she they have to do.
So she's telling the other girl this. You know, I think one of
them is Morgan. Morgan's the one of schizophrenia, and Anissa is the other
girl that's kind of like, you know, caught up with this this girl
and her fantasies and if they're at that age where they can confuse it and
then shit goes sideways. So the girl so anyway, yes, they said
that, like they so when you're watching her the Morgan, the girl of
Schizophere and getting interviewed, it was really interesting because she was so flat,
she had no emotions, and you know, they were you know, she
was like, well, we had to kill her because that's what Slenderman wants.
And he was like, well, but but she's your friend. She's
like, yeah, I know, and it's too bad. And she even
researched going to jail crime. You know, she was reading all these dark
books. She was writing in her journal like you know, like very disturbing
stuff like I want to you know, I want to kill somebody when it
feels like what what it feels like to kill somebody. But her parents didn't
know because she's twelve and she's just kind of quirky. They interviewed the mom
and the mom was like, say, the mom said, so, we
always thought she was quirky, but there was something in her past, like
she never had empathy. We watched this is why I wanted to, she
said. We watched Barbie, but we were afraid to show it to her
because Barbie's mom Barbie, uh uh sorry Bamby, Bamby's mom. I was
like, I know, Barbie, Barbie doesn't seemed that dark. Yeah,
okay, Bamby and Bambi's mom gets killed, right, So we thought she
was gonna be upset. When she watched the scene, she was like run,
Bamby, get out of there. Go Run. Didn't bother her at
all. She had like kind of the opposite effect. So she never really
had a lot of she's never had empathy for like movies and stuff. And
this starts to think about me and you when we were talking about our kids,
like you know, they we'd like we'd be crying when they were younger,
we were crying, but they were just like, yeah, what can
I get some popcorn? You know, so like yeah, like those are
kids. And then she said she did tell her about slender Man. She
did come to her and tell her and she showed her, you know,
videos of slender Man and this is what's going on and blah blah blah.
And the mom was like, yeah, but I never thought she thought it
was real. She said, when I was twelve years old. I remember
reading it like Stephen King books. I was totally into it, so I
thought, you know, that's what she's doing. So I never never occurred
to me she thought it was real, and I didn't think she was thinking
he was talking to her. She never said anything like that. So yeah,
So anyway, it's just it's I don't know. It was really interesting
watching it again and like really watching like their interviews and seeing the difference between
the two girls and what one thought was you know, reality, and the
other one. They both knew it was wrong and they were like and then
the more was like, so am I gonna Am I gonna go to jail?
Or am I gonna go to a Seye asylum? I'd rather go to
the seyant asilum. Oh no, she goes, I don't think I'll go
to a saint I don't think I should be put in a Seine asylum.
But I could see going to jail. She knew it was wrong, but
she had no and her mom said the first time she saw her after she
was arrested, she walked in and she looked at her mom. She goes,
why are you here? You know why? She didn't think her mom
would come no, She just look like, what are you doing here?
Like she was just kind of living. She was reading about what would happen
after she killed somebody. Well, they they thought they were going to walk
to Slenderman's mansion. So they just killed her and then or tried to kill
her and then left and started walking. They had a list of like flashlights
and like matches and how to survive in the wilderness for a few days.
So they were just wandering around walking. But didn't they find them like on
the road. Yeah, they were just yeah, they were walking, and
so they thought they were going to slender Man. So but then the other
girl who doesn't have the schizophrenia, Nisa, she was crying. She was
upset, you know, she showed emotion, but she thought too. She's
like, well, you know, Morgan was telling me that this slender Man,
you know, can come and kill our family in like a second.
And then you're watching these then they show the videos. Well then I started
watching the documentary on HBO Max and they show these videos and if you're fricking
twelve, and they show other twelve year olds that are going like, oh
my god, slender Man's after me. And it says like if you dream
a slender man, that means he's coming for you. That's a sign that
he's coming for you. And when you're twelve, not like Freddy Krueger.
Yeah, it's like the new the new Boogeyman, you know. And when
you're twelve, like and you're delusional and you have you're hearing things. So
was slender Man a movie or was is it just like a myth? It's
a It started like in two thousand, it's in the documentary. It started
like in two thousand and ninth. Somebody like created it for a class or
something and then put it like on you know, on four Chan, and
then wrote a story about it, and then people took off with it and
then they were like putting they or putting his like like is he's standing you
know? Then they show kids, like real pictures of kids running and he's
like standing behind them, you know, with the no face and the law
like he's you know, he's very tall, he's got tentacles on his back.
He's slender. He's slender, yeah, very slender. Yeah, no
face, well alsopic face. Yeah. See now you got me like started
on this whole thing. I was I don't know it's supposed to be a
fun show, but I just I was just watching it like last night on
and off when I was trying to sleep, and it's just interesting what made
these girls you know, flip and you know it just they happened to come
together and then they they planned it for like months. We remember when we
we've talked about this like years ago, where when these when people kill together,
like just how does it? How do you fuck up with somebody else
who has also homicidal tendencies? Like are you just like how does the conversation
start? Just like having coffee and you're like, man, like I could
just kill over killing somebody right now. And then the other person goes me
too, and then you're like what are you doing? I'm kind of stay
right and then do you ever does that? There's the one person ever go
oh my god, I totally thought you were joking, but like, oh
you're no. I'm I'm serious though, me too, Like I'm serious,
Like how when do there how much of it is calling each other's bluff?
And then you're like, oh my gosh, let's drive. Let's start like
casing a neighborhood and see if anybody's like walking by themselves, Like what and
then do you ever go like, oh my god, I actually was joking,
like you're serious, like I'm calling the police. I mean, but
and then they start being partners in literal partners in christ right now, Like
how does this do you find him? Is it a Craigslist kind of thing?
Is it? Like right, you find him on Facebook? Marketplace?
Because you hear about this all the time that two people are involved in this,
I know, and they just I think a lot of it is drugs
and you know, like that kind of stuff like to but like what was
it that not the Hillside the Strangler or the Strangler guys? Yeah, yeah,
in like San Francisco, right or am I missing? They were?
They were here in La not Beyonco? Yeah yeah yeah, y Bianco and
Bono there was We've talked about this years ago where we were trying to figure
out how those two met. Yeah, they were Were they brothers or cousins?
I think they were brothers. I don't think they were brothers. Now
what was the Side strangler? The guys? The two guys Hillside Stranger?
How are they related? But they were related? I think they were cousins.
So the Bono guy like had a like a Mecca was a mechanic in
East la and had a shop. But then his his Bianco or whatever,
the other guy he starts art like wanting to kill and like rape and kidnap
and stuff. And then he like hooked up with his cousin at his shop
one day and was like, Hey, this is what I want to do.
And it's his cousin's like, yeah, okay, count me in.
We need gas money, I'll pay, you know, like it's insane.
Yeah, their cousins, you were right produced I'm busy right now, Bono
Bono and uh but like okay, so I guess maybe it runs in the
family. Right, So you're like, oh my god, I'm Kenneth and
Angelo Kenneth and Angelo Bianci and Angelo Bono or Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Bono.
You knew that that was like right on the tip of your tongue. Well,
they're Italian, you know, they're my people, right right. I
just all those guys like hey, it's Thanksgiving. They're like making small talk
and then they're like, God, like much turkey right now? You know,
it would be a great way to burn off this dinner. Drive around
and like rape and kill somebody. Yeah, and then the other guy's like,
I was thinking that the rest of this family is so boring. Let's
go drive. I mean what, yeah, how did they How do you
let that leak out? Like? What is the conversation that you're having?
How does that work? Yeah? It's crazy. It feels like an inside
thought, you know what I mean, Like you'd be like, oh,
I'm having these thoughts, but I'm not going to tell people, right,
But you know, it could be like, you know how like when we
were in high school or you know, when we would meet, like you
know how, we would have fun, like want to go out like have
fun, and then you're like stuck with your boring friends. And then you
meet another friend that wants to go out and have fun. You're like,
hey, you and I are a lot of like let's go have fun.
Yeah, maybe it's like that, but that's my especial and so do you.
I mean, maybe you're watching like some kind of movie and then you're
like, God, that's crazy, right that they like murdered somebody. And
then your friend's like yeah, real crazy, kind of fascinating though, right,
And then I don't know, maybe you're just like, well, that's
so crazy. I could kind of see I gotta see. Oh me too,
I can see that too. I was thinking, yeah, yeah,
because there was this one dateline or one of those ones that where there were
it was a guy at a girl and it was a boyfriend and girlfriend and
they were at her house like what they she was house sitting for a friend.
And then the kid, the other kid, was like, well,
I got it, I have to go, and she I don't know.
They were feeling a little story and then randomly, so then she gets killed,
and there they blame the guy, the boyfriend, right, but he's
like, dude, I let I swear to god. I left. And
then it turns out that it was like these two guys that were just like
I feel like killing somebody, and they went to that they turned off the
electricity. They were like, they were like not, they were like acquaintances.
They found out that this girl was going to be like house sitting,
and they were like we're gonna go. We're gonna go kill her. Yep.
They were going to kill the guy too, but he left, so
they're like, well, this opportunity, it's not a total loss, right,
She's still there? My god. Yeah, yeah, but those two
were young guys. You guys hooked up and were like, let's go.
Both wanted to kill people, but it was a little bit, like you
said, because one of them was more psychotic than the other one, that
one of them talked the other one into doing it. Yeah. I mean
if when you watch this documentary the psychiatrist that they interview about the case,
it's like it's it just takes one that's really you know, maybe hearing a
psychotic having a psychotic episode, and then you just get hooked up with the
next person that might have those same tendencies, right, and it happened to
be two twelve year old girls, which is crazy. Well, let's take
a quick break and talk about something much lighter, which is mint Mobile.
I love a great deal, you know, but I don't like to,
like work really hard for a good deal, as you like a shortcut.
But this company, it's easy, no hoops nobs. It's mint Mobile.
It's really easy to get wireless for fifteen dollars a month with the purchase of
a three month plan. And it really is that easy fifteen dollars a month.
The longest part of the process is the time you spend on hold waiting
to break up with your old provider. They really try to try to keep
you. And Kaylin, you're going to make the switch? I am.
Yeah. I have been paying fifty five dollars a month for my mobile carrier,
who's not even one of the major ones, and I've been looking into
Mint and I mean forty five dollars for three months is like that's less than
one month of what I'm paying now. And so you came along and yeah,
I've even been thinking of switching to them, and I'm excited to give
to give the dry well to get this new customer offer and your new three
month premium wireless plan for just fifteen dollars a month, go to mint mobile
dot com slash f cool. That's Mint mobile dot com slash fcol. Cut
your wireless bill to fifteen bucks a month at mintmobile dot com slash f cool.
Forty five dollars upfront payment required equivalent to fifteen dollars a month. New
customer on first three month plan only. Speed slower above forty gigabytes on unlimited

details. Okay, on a lighter note, can I tell you something fun.
Yes, that I did the other day with my kids. Okay,
So Sadie and Xander have for the past like few Thursdays have gone to sin
karaoke and I'm like, I do not like to sing karaoke. I'm just
gonna say that, haven't. It's not really my thing. Yeah, but
it seemed like kind of a fun thing for kids to do. I was
always like, that seems like a fun thing. So they were going.
They have they're friends with these two sisters who are in like their music program
at their school. So then like a few Thursdays ago, the dad,
single dad of these two girls brought them and picked up my kids, brought
them, took them to the karaoke place and it's like at all ages,
it's like a little restaurant lounge type place, and took them and like took
them out and bought them food. That's so cool. It was so sweet
love that. So I said to my kids the following week, I was
like, hey, you know, why don't I take you guys to karaoke
and I'll bring those two girls too, Like give the data break. Like
that was sweet of him. Yeah, let me let me be the one
to do it. So my kids asked their friends and they were like,
yeah, yeah, let's go to karaoke. And then right before I was
like trying to work out the time for the plan and to go get them,
and then my kids told me, oh, no, their dad wants
to go too, so we'll they'll meet us there. Okay. So then
partially I'm like, well, how did I get hurt? What do you
need me for? Exactly? I was like, he's already going, right,
he wants to go. Typical is something that would happen to me,
Like I've been stuck with other parents, like I'll make the plan and then
they come along, I'll join you, and I'm like, no, it's
not the plan necessary, No, exactly, make small talk. And it's
also a little bit like okay, so I'm going to take the kids.
John was like, ah, that is Paul, that's between y'all. Like
I'm not interested in karaoke. I mean, I suppose if I was really
like, come on, it'll be super fun, like that would be torture
for him. Of course, it's just not his thing, and it was
a it sounded a little a little bit better to me, But again I
was like, I'm not going to sing, and also like there's already going
to be an adult taking you guys, So what do I how do I
get hurt? But at this point it's kind of late, you know,
and I'd already planned to take them, and now they're going to meet us
there. So I'm like, all right, like this will be fine,
it'll be fun. So we go to the place and he never met the
dad yet, never met the dad, but I had heard that he's a
fund he's like a fun dad. Well dad, yeah, he has full
custody of his three kids, and there's like a story there that's not great.
But like I talked to the one of his daughters is pretty good friends
with Sadie, and she told me, like her dad's great, love him.
He's been a really great dad. He stepped up when the mom left
and like they're happy and they do stuff together. So I was like,
okay, like you know whatever. Anyway, so we get to the place
and it is so cheesy, like it's like and by the way I say
that, but like next week we're going again and Robin's coming and I'm trying
to get you to go and yeah, and I'm like it's cheesy. But
in kind of a very funny way. Well it's karaoke. It's karaoke,
you expect, but Lynette, I had no idea. Calin. This is
for you too, for your information. This is like a cult thing.
People love karaoke and they will go like what there's like a karaoke night at
this place on Wednesday and the people go to Boutland and then on Thursday there's
karaoke at this place. There's a lady who runs the karaoke and it's like
she's like the pied Piper of karaoke and these people follow her around to her
places and they're really into it. Like, right, didn't we go to
a karaoke bar for like a mangry event. Yeah, in Sherman Oaks called
Oak. Yeah, we've done. We've gone to karaoke. We don't get
up there, but yeah we've we've I know what you're talking about. And
I've been to karaoke places kind of recently the last like nine months. There's
one in my area. So and they're always very cheesy and so funny.
Like the people there, but they they, I mean, it's they some
of them really like take it seriously, Okay, But these people all look,
it's you know, to make an old joke. It's kind of like
the Star Wars bar. It's like they're all real odd balls. But then
they're really good singers, so you're like, where did this guy come from.
It's like it was like this couple and then their dad and they're all
singing, and then the dad gets up to sing and you're like doing a
Frank Sinatra song or whatever, and you're like, holy shit, what's happening.
So anyway, I meet, I meet the dad. They meet us.
So it's me and my two Sadie and Xander, and then the dad
his name's Mitch, and his two girls. And he's like super nice,
very interesting background. He for many years he played John Belushi in the Blues
Brothers Show at Universal. Oh really yeah, which is like to get so
so. Then and then he sang and I was like, oh my god,
like he can sing. Oh wow? What he did? I think
he did careless whisper. He did a waam song, and then he did
like a meat loaf song. And he has just like a crazy incredible voice
and he can do almost anything. That's amazing. And then Sadie did not
want to sing and her friend didn't want to sing, but the older sister
of her friend has a beautiful voice. She did a bunch of songs.
They were so into it. And then of course Xander is just a hoot.
I want to know what did he say? He's saying, Well,
first of all, he was like, Mom, you are singing karaoke with
me? And I was like, no, I'm not. He's like,
yes, you are, and I'm signing us up the first song. We're
going to do one together and he and he was like and I was like,
well, what's the song? Because I want to start getting nervous for
it. I do not have a good singing voice. I can sing in
tune, but I do not have a good like tone or like, I'm
not a good singer. And for many years growing up, I was petrified
of ever having to sing because I was so self conscious of not having a
good singing voice and just self conscious in general. I used to have nightmares
about like that I had to go up and sing a song in front of
people. Wow. So in a way it's good for me to do it,
because it's just so uncomfortable that it's funny, like I have to stop
taking it so like your cares, right, except that then all these people
are really good to say very seriously yes, yes, And it's like,
but I'm sure there are you to people like that have to get slatted in
between them, that they have to sit through like drunks. Yes, yeah,
yeah, the one that I want, you know, like singing like
stupid crappy songs. You know the problem they picked like deep cut songs.
Yes, I agree, but the problem is that if you're at a place
that's not just also a regular bar, it's like you're there for karaoke night.
Okay, then they're all good, right, the only people that are
singing there aren't enough people not taking it seriously and just like fucking around.
Yeah, So then you feel like, well, this is not going to
be good. When I get up there, they're going to be like,
okay, what you got, like, prepare to be disappointed. So anyway,
get up at seventeen exactly. They have that song. Yeah, Xander
was like, you should do at seventeen, you should do that song,
and I'm like, no, I'm not doing that. That's terrible. Bring
them up place. Ever, everyone's crying, not just because my singing's bad,
right, So I get up there and I see it says. I
felt like it was he was putting me up for like, oh, it
said looking Glass, and I was like, is this a blondie? I
for admitted, I was like heart of Glass. I was like, I
don't know this song well enough to sing it, and Xander's like, just
relax, it's not that. And then it comes out and it's Brandy,
You're a fine girl. Oh. I was gonna say it right because who
sings it looking Last, Looking Last? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, there's
a port on a Western and Frandy you're a fine girl. Yeah. So
I sang that with Zamber. Were you the backup? I tried. I
stopped singing at certain points and Xander would be like, mom, come on,
like that's a great song. I love how you picked that song.
And then I did. I didn't do any other songs, but but I
was like, you know what, maybe next week I'm gonna do Please Come
to Boston by David Loggins. H remember that song no Please Come to Boston
Full the Springtime? Then the Courses and she said, hey, rambling man,
why don't you settle down? Okay, it's an ahl kind of down.
Oh that's a good one. That's a great Yeah. Of course I
played it for my kids. It's total yacht rock. Yeah, and they
were like it was it was on the like the Mattel CD or yes,
yes that's where it was. That's where I got it from the Ktale Music
Express. But anyway, fun night. It was just fun watching people.
It was very enjoyable. We ate bar food, had some chicken wings and
some fries, and I was like, this is a fun good night.
Yeah. And then even though I was had totally gone into it going this
is gonna be kind of terrible, like what am I doing? I left
there going like I'm coming back next week. I know. It's the best
when you find that's great, that's real. We stay till midnight. We
closed it down. It starts at eight. We were literally there till like
eleven and forty. That's a great idea, Italia you funny. Yeah,
it was just silly, fun, right, And it was bonding with the
kids. Yeah, that's a nice it's a fun thing to do with the
kids, especially at this age. Yes. Fun. Yeah. And I
was like, you know what, I should feel really lucky that oh,
because when the dad was going to be going, I did say to my
kids. I was like, well, do you guys just want me to
just drop you off there? And they were like no, you said you
were coming. And I was like okay, but I didn't know if you'd
want me there. And they're like, yes, we want you there.
And it was like I was like, oh, it's nice. I'm doing
something with my great it is. It's a great idea. It's something good
to do in bond with the kids. Yeah, you know, and and
it's it's like it's funny because then you can see like their personalities and you
can see like what songs they pick, Like I love that he picked the
Brandy song. Oh okay, so that he picked that song. Then he
did no scrubs. Oh that's a good one too. Oh god does as
he knows so many songs. But he's really music and he was just up
there by himself. Is a guy who done also known as a buster.
Yes, it's a girl. I don't want your number. No, I
don't want to give you mine, and no I don't want to meet you
nowhere, don't want none of your time. It's that's a great Was he
good? He was great? Yeah, it was so funny. I love
that I miss karaoke, I really do you know. We used to do
it all the time. I did, Oh my God, at Jimmy's house.
He had a whole karaoke system back when he was married to Gina.
We would go over there all the time and it was karaoke and it was
it was so fun, and I learned songs like I was like, oh
my god, I never heard the song, but I loved it, Like
because they picked deep cuts too. You know. Our old producer did janis
Ian at seven? That was her song. Oh she really did, Yes,
she did. Oh That's so fun was song. And Gina would make
fun of her, like, oh god, here she goes. You're gonna
bring everybody down. That's the thing about Please come to Boston is My kids
were like, it's too slow, it's a sad one. And I was
like, but I don't. What am I gonna do? Sing like a
rock and roll something right? Well, like sal would sing Forever in Blue
Jean to Melissa, you know, money talks and it don't scream and dance
and it can't walk. Yes, and I can have you here with me.
I'd much rather be forever blue jeans, Baby Boom Boom, boom boom.
Is that Neil Diamond. Neil Diamond. There was a lot of Neil
Diamond, a lot Jimmy did like you know, Sweet Caroline and blah blah
blah. It was so much fun. It was a good I mean,
but I never sang. I was like, never gonna get up and sing
like it's not my thing. This is really like pretty low stakes. Yeah,
is what's kind of funny about it. The only song I sang was
all right, stop doing because I'm about to ruin the image and the style
that you used to I look funny, but yo make a money. See.
So yes, I got around. I'm the new kid in town.
Yeah, okay, well you gotta do that. You gotta come to karaoke
and you gotta do that song. It's so stupid. It's just like stupid.
Or goodbye to you. That was another one. Okay, that's yeah.
Yeah. Should we do an ad? Yeah? Oh what was I
going to tell you that? I was like, I have a that I
have a rant about. Well, let's I can't remember. Let's uh,
well, I think let's talk about quins and how much we love quins.

Also, we are love being Tropical Smoothie Cafe. We're on traffic time
now we are, and we love the mocktails. It makes you feel like
you're just like chillin pool side vacation with your delicious drink. It's good for
me because I'm sober. Yeah, so now I get to have a mocktail
like the Island Punch Smoothie, which is peach, guava, passion fruit,
mango, and pineapple. I love. That's my favorite. Mm hmm.
They also have the Mango Berry Cosmo, which is mango, strawberries, cranberry
and lime. Yummy. But not just drinks, no, they have they

It's really delicious. And there's so many Tropical Smoothie cafes to choose from.
Uh, you got one right by you, right, Klein? Oh
yeah, yeah, down means where I picked up our smoothies brought them for
the studio. Yeah, so here's what you're gonna want to do. Uh,
you are going to want to head on down to one of Tropical Smoothie
cafes for teen hundred plus locations or order online or through their app Tropical Smoothie.
You're on Tropic time now, baby m I remembered what I was going
to tell you about. Yeah, so my kids are hardcore hunting for jobs.
Yes, Sadie had a job interview, but it's at the place where
Elbie works, and now she said she had a great interview, but she's
worried. They said it's really hard for siblings to get jobs there. But
Elbe's on her way out because she's going to be going to college, so
we're hopeful of that. But Xander's kind of starting from scratch. And these
days, kids they need to they want a resume, even just to work
at like Menshi's. Yeah, they want them to submit their resume. So
I'm like, well, what are you supposed to put on a resume for
a kid that hasn't really done yet? Right? So first, of course,
I'm like that's stupid, Like, why do you need a resume?
Just go ask for an application. Well, the app locations are online and
they want you to submit a resume. So started googling like first resumes or
you know, resumes for high schoolers. Yes, yeah, trying to find
like a free template, right, super annoying. So wasn't easy. No,
Well, okay, they have them on like Canva, which I eventually
did find for free. But if you look up free resume template, they
send you to these websites and you spend and they're like this is free here,
just fill in your information here right, So you fill it all in
and it takes a while. By the way, AI a lot of them
use AI technologies, so it's like, oh, if you put down pet
sitting, it'll go do you want a description? Here's a description of pet
sitting. I never I don't know how to use AI. If it hit
me over that, well you don't. It gives you suggestions. It's like,
here's the AI suggested that chat GBT thing like, I don't know how
that works. I don't know how it works either, Yeah, but the
AI is just right. Then the app they go here's some descriptions of pet
sitting, and then it's like you can adjust it or but it goes.
Here's some skills that you might have if you're a pet sitter or a babysitter.
It's like works really and it's just that's cool. Describes it. But
then you just kind of change anyway, go through all this work. Have
to take a picture of him because they you can put pictures on them.
Now a picture of Xander, Okay, Xander. Have to put them up
against a white wall, like take a picture of them. It's like these
freaking kids have like professional headshot. It's like, yeah, these they almost
all the samples are like these kind of professional looking pictures. I'm like,
I don't know, he's sixteen, like right. But then the snapshot we
tried to use didn't work that well. It was because he'd had this picture
he wanted that was him when he was in New York. But the building
that's behind him has like a flag, so it looks weird because it's like
the way the picture is, it's like his face with a little American flag,
and he's like, I don't know if I want to be like I'm
American, Like for my picture. I was like, yeah, it is
a little would blur it or right? Okay, So then I'm like,
I need a tool for editing photos. Right, But Linette, I'm so
old that everything is like starting at square one. I'm like, I don't
know what do they do use photos? And how do you even do it?
And how do I blur the like? Well? Yeah, I mean
I think I don't know if there's a well, there's an app already built
into your phone that you can light the pictures or you can tone down the
picture. You can do, right, but I don't know how to use
it for blurring the background or Yeah, I was trying to fix the way
the skin tone was too. I was trying to smooth everything out. Yeah
you can do that, yeah, but I couldn't do it on the regular.
There's an app? Well, I mean there there's a couple downloaded one
You'm peachy. Yeah, it's called Peachy. Yeah the whole kind of name
is that for? Enough? No, I don't know. But like,
so I go through all this work, right, I get this app,
I correct the I make the picture look better. I mean it's worth like
hour two of this, you know, and then we've done all the resume
and then you get to like finish the resume and it's like, hey,
cool, you actually want this resume though you can sign up for like it's
gonna cost you like four ninety five for the for two weeks if you want
to do anything to it, and then after that it goes to seven ninety
five like a week, or you could do a year for like two hundred
dollars. And I was like, fuck yourself, fucking blindsided me with this
bait and switch. I was so mad and I almost paid for it because
I was like, we did all this work, right, maybe I just
give them but it's like it's not just you give them like two ninety five.
Let's just say down, yeah, give us your credit card and we'll
charge two ninety five and you can get the first copy, but you can't
print it out. It's like you can't. You can't have it because then
after the two week trial period, we're going to start charging you like eight
dollars a month, and then we're going to charge you like that far what
it's a one time for the agility. This is like I'm like, oh
my god, he's not looking for a job as a lawyer. Like,
he's just trying to get his first job and then he's going to be done,
right, he needs a couple of resumes. So then Xander was like,
Mom, don't worry about it. I'll just take a picture of it
and then I'll recreate it in a different app. But then it's like everything
was just such a project to try to get a job at like Menchees,
to try to get your first minimum wage job. I'm like, why is
it this difficult? But that's really cool though they should have resumes. It's
a good idea, and we did finally figure it out and we did use
John had some templates on like Adobe. But then I did find on Canva
a free one and we did finally get him a resume and now he does
have it. That's great and it was free. Yeah, it just was
a lot of work on this. We had to recreate it on a different
app. Right, I lost a couple hours of time and I was very
mad. I know it can be aggravating, but you know it is.
It's a good idea, and now that you know, I'm thinking about it,
like, and I've been telling like Sonny and Italia that they you know,
they should have but now like when they're going off to college, they're
gonna get jobs, you know, And she's been working at this this restaurant,
right, she's still going strong at the restaurant as a hostess. She's
gonna have to quit, but she's gonna quit soon. And then Sonny was
like looking for a job, but then he's gonna be gone soon too.
So they're gonna start fresh at their new places. And they should have you
know, resumes, and you know, he can put his his his sports
broadcast, his benchwarmers broadcast on that, and she can put her you know,
working with Garagos and working at this restaurant. Like, yeah, she's
got stuff. So it's a good idea. So now you inspired me.
Yeah, and just go to Canva and use the free just some of the
they have a little teeny crown on them if they're pro and then you have
to pay. But the ones that don't have that, they try to trick
you so that you fall in love with what and then you're like, oh,
that's going to cost thirty dollars. But there are a bunch that are
free. But Elle Wee didn't deal with this because her first job was an
online application and it was right at the end of COVID, they'lled out the
online application. It was very very simple, and she had a lot of
availability and they called her right away and she got that job and she's always
had that job. But now she's made a professional resume for looking for an
internship for next summer. Good for her. Yeah, that's great. So
a friend of mine is helping her with that whole process. And then nowadays,
like she's on LinkedIn. She's great. It's all more professional with these
kids. Yeah, in our day, and he asked for it. You
walked into places and you're like, can I have an application? Right?
You just fill it out? Walked to Strawberry Records and you're like, I
want to work here, Cower Records Hiring. Yeah, yeah, it was
yeah, pretty it was pretty simple. But yeah, now with the the
resume stuff, like you know, but it's good. It is good for
them to have and get going and have something like that. I remember my
dad when I was younger, My dad would teach me like how to write
a resume, Like I went to my dad for all that stuff, how
to apply for a job, how you know everything, and and then you
know, like he was really great with like asking questions, and I actually
learned like how to you know, put together my own resume and then took
it from then on it for the rest of my career working you know,
just tweaking it and blah blah blah. So I was thinking, like,
you know, like things that my dad helped me do when I was at
a young age, you know, just like teaching these kids, you know,
like I want to be like how my dad was for them. You
know, like sometimes you know, if they'll get a gift, you know,
send a thank you card. Always send a thing, especially from Uncle
Jimmy, you know, don't you know, get on it, send a
thank you card, like just skills that that's good for the to develop relationships
or whatever. And there were in the professional world. No, absolutely,
Yeah, it's just a little bit challenging because because technology, yes, is
so far beyond what it was when we were in high school, right that
like some of those lessons, the kids look at you like you have a
third head, because they're just like, yeah, you're talking about like I'm
meaning like this this ai shit, Like how is it going to work with
I know that like there's there's the kids had teachers in school that were like,
you know, they could figure out if you used AI on your you
know, chat GBT on your essays or whatever. Is that the case still?
Like in colleges, do they have their own like AI app that can
detect your oh yeah on AI crime? Is that what's going on? Like
yeah, right, yeah, I think they do. The problem is too
though that I think that a lot of kids, there's a lot of these
chat GPT and these AI things are too sensitive and so they think things are
They think kids are cheating when they aren't right right. They had a friend
at school the same thing, like, yeah, he was a good student
and he wrote his essay and the teacher thought he was cheating. Yeah,
yeah, it's okay. It's kind of tricky crazy, Yeah yeah, all
right. Let us talk about our weekly Are guys that get something every week?
