<v Speaker 2>she's like two seventeen recovery. This is Corey and people

82
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.439
<v Speaker 2>like what, Yeah, Corey was the dude I've met him before.

83
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.199
<v Speaker 4>Well, this is twenty twenty four in America. So sometimes

84
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.560
<v Speaker 4>people will call us let's when they're.

85
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Messed up. I didn't want to say fed up, intoxicated,

86
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:26.680
<v Speaker 2>oh yeah, or you know, a little not there, And

87
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.560
<v Speaker 2>it could really confuse him. This one guy, thinking of

88
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:31.639
<v Speaker 2>in particular, he'll call it. He'll start singing on the

89
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 2>voicemail like it'll just be like we come in and

90
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 2>we're like, oh, it was a rough weekend, you know

91
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>for that guy. But if he calls new answer and

92
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>he'd be like huh, like it's going to trip him up,

93
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.600
<v Speaker 2>so it'll be fun and interesting. And then when they

94
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 2>start calling and that, you know the people, they're always like, oh,

95
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:55.399
<v Speaker 2>is Corey there? You know their accents? Yeah, from America

96
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:58.279
<v Speaker 2>and they were like, oh, that's good, because have you

97
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.800
<v Speaker 2>interested in the like and the health insurance and blah

98
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.560
<v Speaker 2>blah blah. You want to be Man of the Year award.

99
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.199
<v Speaker 2>That'll really trip him up.

100
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:09.240
<v Speaker 4>It's usually something personal because our phone number at one

101
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.360
<v Speaker 4>time was not a business line, right, And so then

102
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 4>I'd be like, this is a business and they just click.

103
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I know, some ass hung up with me last week.

104
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:24.199
<v Speaker 2>He's like Mary there and I'm like, no, yeah, those

105
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:27.079
<v Speaker 2>are the ones and they hung up. I was like, oh,

106
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:28.959
<v Speaker 2>I don't hang up on me. I hang up on you,

107
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 2>m jerk. I was talking to one guy today early.

108
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:36.759
<v Speaker 2>His name is Daniel. Apparently that's popular name in the

109
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Middle East wherever he may be from India, I would assume,

110
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 2>but I really don't think that's his name.

111
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:44.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't think so.

112
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:50.120
<v Speaker 2>And he was really trying to sell me some insurance

113
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:52.959
<v Speaker 2>and he I don't think it was met with the

114
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>answers I was giving him because he was real kind

115
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:56.680
<v Speaker 2>of confused. You could tell there's like a sheet in

116
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.720
<v Speaker 2>front of him, and he didn't really know where to

117
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.879
<v Speaker 2>pivot it. Finally, when I was like no, and he's

118
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:09.720
<v Speaker 2>like oh, and it was just the awkward dismount for us.

119
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:13.240
<v Speaker 2>And then I wished him a good day and goodbye, Daniel,

120
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:17.879
<v Speaker 2>and he's like, who oh, that's me. He's gonna go

121
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:19.879
<v Speaker 2>to those Boston. What do I say when they just

122
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:21.319
<v Speaker 2>talk about this other stuff?

123
00:06:21.879 --> 00:06:25.199
<v Speaker 4>I get the Facebook message scammer versions of those is

124
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:26.040
<v Speaker 4>they're fun to play with.

125
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:27.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't get those.

126
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 4>In the same corners of the internet I.

127
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:34.800
<v Speaker 2>Am, I guess not. And I'm not sad that I

128
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:39.720
<v Speaker 2>don't get those. I'm just saying Corey looks a little lost.

129
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.800
<v Speaker 5>We'll stay on the corner of the internet. I'm on there.

130
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>We go, Mitch and Justin will play over there. I

131
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:49.680
<v Speaker 2>wish I had the dick pick to drop, which we

132
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:51.560
<v Speaker 2>got to play it now that I brought it up.

133
00:06:52.360 --> 00:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>So yesterday, yesterday you were doing a podcast with one

134
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:01.879
<v Speaker 2>Justin Burke.

135
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:09.480
<v Speaker 4>And the Treasure of You Found Entertainment. Yeah, you my

136
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:12.040
<v Speaker 4>holy Grail is what I called it. Okay, yeah, that's

137
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 4>it is.

138
00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>It's something that I'm about to play it and you're

139
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:18.360
<v Speaker 2>gonna lose your mind if if you hear this. But

140
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna play in the whole context. So are you

141
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.360
<v Speaker 2>playing both or just the one? Okay, that wasn't one

142
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:26.680
<v Speaker 2>whole clip. That was a little bit of this one,

143
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.480
<v Speaker 2>and there was like thirty seconds of talking in between

144
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:31.279
<v Speaker 2>the first and the second one. I just sent them

145
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 2>to you like that, and I think I put them

146
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:36.079
<v Speaker 2>those all right, Well, let's just give that a listen

147
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:36.560
<v Speaker 2>real quick.

148
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:42.040
<v Speaker 7>And so that really got me thinking about how well

149
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.519
<v Speaker 7>that movie dictated that, you know, with talking to a psychiatrist.

150
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:52.319
<v Speaker 7>The thumbnail totally does not dick pick the movie at all.

151
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:58.000

157
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:18.480

158
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:21.680
<v Speaker 2>with this new slang and this ohio giddy or I

159
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:26.199
<v Speaker 2>don't even know what it's called. No but that doesn't

160

00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.079
<v Speaker 7>Totally does not dick pick.

162
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:29.839

165
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.080
<v Speaker 4>I like turn, I like side to side, looking for you,

166
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:49.360
<v Speaker 4>like nobody heard this. Nobody heard this, It's recorded. And

167
00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:54.120
<v Speaker 4>then twenty seconds later it got even better with the

168
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:58.120
<v Speaker 4>dick pic and I couldn't not say something, yeah, one.

169
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 7>More again, And so that really got me thinking about

170
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:04.919
<v Speaker 7>how well that movie dictated that, you know, with talking

171
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:10.480
<v Speaker 7>to a psychiatrist. The thumbnail totally does not dick pick

172
00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 7>the movie. Whatever.

173
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:19.720
<v Speaker 4>I tried to say something the first time, anyway, I

174
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:23.879
<v Speaker 4>could not. I had I had to acknowledge it.

175
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:27.399
<v Speaker 2>You had to at that point, you know, the first one. Okay,

176
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 2>like you there's more coming. If we stopped him every time,

177
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:32.840
<v Speaker 2>it would better be a podcast.

178
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.840

188
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:15.240
<v Speaker 4>seconds apart.

189
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:17.679
<v Speaker 2>So check out the white knuckling It podcast.

190
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.799
<v Speaker 4>Thinks I'm I'm mixing it down to post it and

191
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:21.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm chopping them up to.

192
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Send you.

193
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:26.759
<v Speaker 5>Guys are both on the shit list.

194
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:29.399
<v Speaker 7>Now, Well, I would have felt totally does not Dick

195
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:31.120
<v Speaker 7>pick that doesn't.

196
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:34.440
<v Speaker 4>I would have felt this bad, just a little tiny

197
00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:37.639
<v Speaker 4>bit bad if it was like his memory card. But

198
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.840
<v Speaker 4>there was also the issue with the memory card, and

199
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:42.799
<v Speaker 4>so it was my memory card. And so I was like,

200
00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:44.879
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna do whatever I want with what I'm in

201
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:45.600
<v Speaker 4>possession of.

202
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Nine tents in the law, but in that case, it's

203
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent of the law that's yours.

204
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:53.120
<v Speaker 4>So he was in there, he's like, I don't consent

205
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:57.200
<v Speaker 4>to any of this, you guys for defecation or something

206
00:10:57.240 --> 00:10:57.559
<v Speaker 4>like that.

207
00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he didn't use that word.

208
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:04.399
<v Speaker 4>It's defamation, right, so I would assume.

209
00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:09.360
<v Speaker 2>He, yeah, he would defication. He's probably been sued for that,

210
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:10.840
<v Speaker 2>so he might know that word. Though.

211
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 4>That was my thing.

212
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I just losing it.

213
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:23.200
<v Speaker 5>You don't have to start something having English class. You're wrong.

214
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.080
<v Speaker 2>That's why Martie wants to start a book club.

215
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:29.759
<v Speaker 5>We could start pronunciation.

216
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.799
<v Speaker 6>Specifically, for I know there's not a lot of words

217
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.919
<v Speaker 6>in the Pooh books either, so we can start them

218
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:38.720
<v Speaker 6>out lightly.

219
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:45.200
<v Speaker 2>And I'd be afraid how how we mess up the

220
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:46.159
<v Speaker 2>word tigger.

221
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:51.799
<v Speaker 7>Totally does not.

222
00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:58.720
<v Speaker 5>We need to pack this ship out the deck like

223
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:00.159
<v Speaker 5>we never even recorded this.

224
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:01.440
<v Speaker 4>No, we don't know.

225
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:08.080
<v Speaker 2>That might be can wait to call some some fun

00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:14.159
<v Speaker 4>Oh I'm crying. Okay, what we're.

243
00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Talking about recovery and stuff.

244
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:23.559
<v Speaker 4>Burst over today we are so recording.

245
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:24.759
<v Speaker 2>It's her first day.

246
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:28.120
<v Speaker 6>So you started on a Thursday, which most people are like,

247
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 6>why would you start on a Thursday? Well, because this

248
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.440
<v Speaker 6>is what we do, and it fell on our paydays

249
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:37.879
<v Speaker 6>to where you would have to miss paycheck and and

250
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:39.960
<v Speaker 6>how we do our paydays like we pay up to date.

251
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:42.000
<v Speaker 2>So it just made sense that you started on Thursday.

252
00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:48.639
<v Speaker 2>But what has has anything surprised you so far? Nothing? No, no, no.

253
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:52.320
<v Speaker 3>I already kind of knew what was probably headed my way,

254
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:54.240
<v Speaker 3>and then I was going to be working in the

255
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:59.200
<v Speaker 3>office with these guys, so I was like, you know,

256
00:13:59.320 --> 00:14:03.120
<v Speaker 3>that wasn't ever like a contemplation like can I work

257
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:06.759
<v Speaker 3>with these guys? Or I knew that I could, And

258
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:09.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, sitting up there, you just don't know what

259
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:12.519
<v Speaker 3>you might hear, And that's okay.

260
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:18.159
<v Speaker 4>Sitting up there, you hear everything that happens in this

261
00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:22.919
<v Speaker 4>office space you do. It's it's wild. And I think

262
00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:25.559
<v Speaker 4>I told you that before, and you're starting to I

263
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:26.759
<v Speaker 4>know you've noticed.

264
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:30.480
<v Speaker 5>But then there's times it's like really silent.

265
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:33.200
<v Speaker 3>So like me and Cory were sitting here today, I

266
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:35.200
<v Speaker 3>know he's doing Texas, so I can just see his

267
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:36.159
<v Speaker 3>brain smoking.

268
00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:38.960
<v Speaker 4>That's probably his fate.

269
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.799
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, yeah, that's my brain Too's like printing out

270
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:43.919
<v Speaker 2>the same thing any time.

271
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:45.879
<v Speaker 5>I know.

272
00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.840
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like, like, why did I put that in

273
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:50.960
<v Speaker 2>the other expenses category? What is that?

274
00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:51.159
<v Speaker 4>Now?

275
00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:52.960
<v Speaker 2>I gotta go back to quick books and change it

276
00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:56.039
<v Speaker 2>and put it in whatever I want, you know. I'm like, man,

277
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.519
<v Speaker 2>it'd be easy to say, have two categories, you know,

278
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.200
<v Speaker 2>but instead I got like fifty. And then I'm like,

279
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:03.320
<v Speaker 2>where did I find the six forty? Where's it at?

280
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:03.559
<v Speaker 4>You know?

281
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:06.919
<v Speaker 2>I find six seventy of it? And I'm like, well,

282
00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:10.000
<v Speaker 2>ten dollars is fine, whatever, So you can't find that,

283
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know whatever, let's get on the taxes. And

284
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:17.039
<v Speaker 2>then since we made like eighteen gazillion dollars last year,

285
00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:20.360
<v Speaker 2>which we did not make eighteenazillion dollars, but I had

286
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to do the other form, which is like the not

287
00:15:23.039 --> 00:15:25.039
<v Speaker 2>the it doesn't have the easy on the end of it.

288
00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:29.039
<v Speaker 2>I love in those forms. You can use those for anything. No,

289
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.960
<v Speaker 2>not this one. So I'm like day one into like

290
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:35.240
<v Speaker 2>day six, I think there's like six days probably into

291
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:43.000
<v Speaker 2>this bad Boy. Yeah, it's it's it's not dick pick.

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Like I'll pay you and he's like that's all right.

304
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:18.639
<v Speaker 2>And I asked like three other accounts in the area.

305
00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:22.480
<v Speaker 2>They're like, no, I'm good. I'm like, will you help

306
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:23.720
<v Speaker 2>me with them? Well, what do you need to know

307
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:27.200
<v Speaker 2>how to do them? No, I'm good. I was just

308
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:28.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna tell you to put like if you get gas,

309
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.000
<v Speaker 2>put that in your travel expenses. You know, shit, you

310
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:35.919
<v Speaker 2>can figure that part out, but file them for me. No.

311
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.639
<v Speaker 2>So last year it was easy because I could use

312
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.879
<v Speaker 2>the easy form, and this year, yeah, it's gonna be

313
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:45.440
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna take some time, but it just goes to

314
00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:49.399
<v Speaker 2>show you that there's a lot that people can do

315
00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:51.399
<v Speaker 2>when they don't think they can. Well, I don't know how.

316
00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:54.759
<v Speaker 2>That shouldn't be an excuse. Not in twenty twenty four,

317
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:59.320
<v Speaker 2>because you can figure out how I got to October fifteenth.

318
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.039
<v Speaker 2>The file the boys, So I'm glad I started him

319
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:05.079
<v Speaker 2>early this year instead of starting on October fifteenth like

320
00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:07.519
<v Speaker 2>I did last year. Because they find you it's like

321
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:09.559
<v Speaker 2>fifty bucks a day and I don't care for a nonprofit.

322
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:12.119
<v Speaker 4>Oh like, we didn't have to pay any taxes. That's

323
00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:14.880
<v Speaker 4>how they got his ass is you ain't gonna be

324
00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:17.319
<v Speaker 4>paying us no taxes, so we're just gonna let you go.

325
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:20.519
<v Speaker 4>We're not gonna remind you. Just go on. And it's

326
00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 4>like day want too fine?

327
00:17:22.559 --> 00:17:25.240
<v Speaker 7>I got your asked two times because you can't drive.

328
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:27.079
<v Speaker 2>I can't drive.

329
00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:28.960
<v Speaker 4>Somewhere down the line, someone to be like, how much

330
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:29.839
<v Speaker 4>do you guys paid for taxes?

331
00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, we're not supposed to pay any but we have

332
00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:32.200
<v Speaker 2>paid this.

333
00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:34.119
<v Speaker 4>They got sneaky about it.

334
00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:37.000
<v Speaker 2>We're paying taxes. We got fined nineteen hundred dollars if

335
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:41.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm not filing taxes on time. Yeah, glad it's nice

336
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:44.720
<v Speaker 2>and even I bought to wait another day and added

337
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:45.640
<v Speaker 2>fifty bucks to it.

338
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they'll find a way if you don't get on

339
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:52.200
<v Speaker 3>that and start and do it. Yeah.

340
00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:57.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's just it's yeah, and there's like eighty other

341
00:17:57.880 --> 00:17:59.680
<v Speaker 2>things I'm doing all the time. It seems like too.

342
00:17:59.759 --> 00:18:03.079
<v Speaker 2>So that's what I was. And Mitch, you're kind of

343
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:05.680
<v Speaker 2>in the same boat, like you've taken on different now

00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:07.839
<v Speaker 2>you're doing this podcast, you're doing that podcast. She got

345
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:10.920
<v Speaker 2>a son, You're trying to be social, you know, like

346
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:15.160
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to balance it all, man, you know it.

347
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:17.079
<v Speaker 4>End up staying up until one o'clock in the morning

348
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:19.160
<v Speaker 4>just so you can talk to everybody that you're trying

<v Speaker 4>to you know, be around and be here and go home. Kid.

350
00:18:24.599 --> 00:18:27.640
<v Speaker 4>The other day, I was like, I've committed my time

351
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:31.759
<v Speaker 4>to four podcasts, and it seemed like a lot until

352
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:32.559
<v Speaker 4>I was doing that.

353
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it takes time, especially when you're the one editing

354
00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:38.200
<v Speaker 2>them and you're putting things together that that takes the

355
00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:41.200
<v Speaker 2>most time. Obviously, it really tick pics my whole day

356
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:43.920
<v Speaker 2>digs fixture right up.

357
00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:49.359
<v Speaker 4>But it'd be a real tiger sometimes I couldn't go

358
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:52.279
<v Speaker 4>it's been here, it's been here this whole.

359
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:58.319
<v Speaker 3>Time, letting it all here right now to defend himself.

360
00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:00.000
<v Speaker 4>So we made up the cigarette.

361
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:04.319
<v Speaker 5>What's of his book?

362
00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:10.279
<v Speaker 4>I'm never gonna be able to look at his friend,

363
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:17.119
<v Speaker 4>his tiger friend obviously the best part of this tiger

364
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:17.599
<v Speaker 4>has that.

365
00:19:17.720 --> 00:19:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Energy, man, what energy?

366
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:24.759
<v Speaker 4>You know?

367
00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:30.119
<v Speaker 9>You know, if making a statement, I was making a

368
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 9>statement man, you know, just.

369
00:19:39.839 --> 00:19:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Like justin what's up, he'd be.

370
00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:52.640
<v Speaker 10>Like, fabulous, Oh, I think I needed this podcast.

371
00:19:56.119 --> 00:19:58.559
<v Speaker 2>But it's it's tough and we get busy sometimes. And

372
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:03.279
<v Speaker 2>I was scored. One of my idols. His name is

373
00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Gordon Keith, and he does radio in Texas, but he

374
00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:09.119
<v Speaker 2>does this discord thing and he was talking on there

375
00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:13.839
<v Speaker 2>and somebody asked him, you know, what's what's your biggest vice?

376
00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:16.400
<v Speaker 2>And they know he doesn't drink or smoke anymore, and

377
00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:19.039
<v Speaker 2>he was like, well, my biggest vice is like would

378
00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:21.240
<v Speaker 2>probably be just that I always feel like I never

379
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:23.599
<v Speaker 2>accomplished anything. He's like, I have this long list of

380
00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:25.279
<v Speaker 2>things that I want to do and I want to complete.

381
00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:27.960
<v Speaker 2>I can never get them done. And there's always something

382
00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:30.559
<v Speaker 2>that I didn't plan on that day just happening and

383
00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:33.599
<v Speaker 2>just taking me in a different direction and just and

384
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:39.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, dude, that's how I feel. Yeah, And I

385
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:42.319
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you feel that way, Corey, but yeah.

386
00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:45.799
<v Speaker 5>Like time management is not a friend of mine.

387
00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:49.400
<v Speaker 2>And that's kind of what he said too, because he

388
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:53.640
<v Speaker 2>said he'll he'll find himself on point, on task and

389
00:20:53.680 --> 00:20:58.319
<v Speaker 2>then once he goes off task, which we all have

390
00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:00.640
<v Speaker 2>to do. Everybody in this world has to do that

391
00:21:00.680 --> 00:21:03.559
<v Speaker 2>at some point, and he just spends out of control

392
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:04.920
<v Speaker 2>with it. And it's so.

393
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:08.160
<v Speaker 4>Relevant here too with what we do because like today

394
00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:12.720
<v Speaker 4>somebody should you know, two seventeen recovery dot com and

395
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:15.200
<v Speaker 4>you get the guy's treatment. Yeah, I'll drop it. I'm

396
00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:16.839
<v Speaker 4>doing and I'll be there. You know, That's that's what

397
00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:20.920
<v Speaker 4>I do. We're dropping center. We had that happen today.

398
00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:23.200
<v Speaker 4>That doesn't happen every day, but we had that happen today.

399
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:26.079
<v Speaker 4>We had that happened yesterday. And you know, it's like

400
00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:28.920
<v Speaker 4>you take time out of what you're doing to you know,

401
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:31.119
<v Speaker 4>sit and talk to people and try to guide them

402
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:34.160
<v Speaker 4>or help them. And it does like you have a

403
00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:36.079
<v Speaker 4>you kind of have a plan in your head of

404
00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:38.960
<v Speaker 4>what you want to get done in that day. But

405
00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:42.359
<v Speaker 4>our job is literally to let go of that sometimes

406
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:43.319
<v Speaker 4>to help people.

407
00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:47.240
<v Speaker 2>And today's situation was so frustrating for us because we

408
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:50.039
<v Speaker 2>can only do so much. We're not homeless shelter, we're

409
00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:53.960
<v Speaker 2>not or anything like that, and we try to get

410
00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:56.680
<v Speaker 2>people connected to the services that we can and they

411
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:58.880
<v Speaker 2>come in they're not from our area, so that already

412
00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:01.680
<v Speaker 2>is a handcuff. But hey, if we need to eat

413
00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:03.759
<v Speaker 2>some gas costs, we will, you know, to get a

414
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:06.400
<v Speaker 2>person safely wherever they need to go. Well, the rest

415
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:08.920
<v Speaker 2>will all wash out, you know if we do good

416
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:11.240
<v Speaker 2>and good will happen to us. So that's kind of

417
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:13.440
<v Speaker 2>how we look at that. But you know, there were

418
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:16.240
<v Speaker 2>a lot of things in play, and then we're you know,

419
00:22:16.279 --> 00:22:20.759
<v Speaker 2>making phone calls and stuff, and these people are known already,

420
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:23.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's just like, okay, well they're and everybody was

421
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 2>just kind of acting shady, like, oh, well, they're trying

422
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:28.279
<v Speaker 2>to get one over on us. Okay, even if they were,

423
00:22:28.359 --> 00:22:32.599
<v Speaker 2>they're asking for help and we have to do what

424
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:34.720
<v Speaker 2>we can to get them help when they ask for help.

425
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:38.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, we can't just be like, oh, we don't

426
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:41.200
<v Speaker 2>do that because it's Friday. You know, that's other people

427
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:43.599
<v Speaker 2>can do that. I don't work for other people, you know,

428
00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:48.279
<v Speaker 2>but what we do here is the damnedest to get

429
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:52.160
<v Speaker 2>that person where they need to go. And it sucks

430
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.279
<v Speaker 2>when we can't facilitate that, you know. And it was

431
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:58.079
<v Speaker 2>out of our hands. Like if that was a place

432
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:00.279
<v Speaker 2>for that person to go or those people to go

433
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:04.240
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, we would have taken them. But there was

434
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:06.160
<v Speaker 2>just no place. And next thing, you know, it's two

435
00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:08.640
<v Speaker 2>thirty and it's like, well it's two thirty and it's

436
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.319
<v Speaker 2>a Friday, so yeah, you know, like the chances of

437
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:14.599
<v Speaker 2>you getting to a place because the closest place to

438
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:17.519
<v Speaker 2>us is out well that already said no, it would

439
00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:19.519
<v Speaker 2>have to be next week. So it's just like an

440
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:22.759
<v Speaker 2>hour and a half away. You know what's next? Yeah,

441
00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:25.279
<v Speaker 2>you know it's three hours to get up north. It's

442
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:29.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, four hours to Detroit. Where are you gonna go?

443
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:36.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, sometimes Hope does stop at five o'clock on Friday, unfortunately,

444
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:39.680
<v Speaker 2>and that's that's too bad. Sometimes it doesn't. But you know,

445
00:23:39.759 --> 00:23:42.599
<v Speaker 2>most places, they they're businesses and they have to go

446
00:23:42.640 --> 00:23:43.960
<v Speaker 2>home and see their families too.

447
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:44.039
<v Speaker 9>And.

448
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, it's just frustrating and you kind of

449
00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:49.559
<v Speaker 2>feel like you lose sometimes and you know, I don't

450
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:51.519
<v Speaker 2>want us to feel like we lost, you know, because

451
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.119
<v Speaker 2>we couldn't connect someone. But we did all that we

452
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:58.000
<v Speaker 2>could do. You feel that, Cory, Yeah, I mean we tried.

453
00:23:59.000 --> 00:24:02.880
<v Speaker 3>You know, we called to different places, We gave them,

454
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:07.279
<v Speaker 3>we let them use our work phones to call and

455
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:10.599
<v Speaker 3>do an intake, and you know there was stipulations and

456
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:14.440
<v Speaker 3>rules at that one that weren't you know, the client

457
00:24:14.519 --> 00:24:17.279
<v Speaker 3>didn't want to agree with. And then the other place

458
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:21.160
<v Speaker 3>they couldn't take the one until Tuesday. And you know,

459
00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:23.960
<v Speaker 3>I had gave the best suggestion, but like again, that's

460
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:26.359
<v Speaker 3>just a suggestion, like hey, I would call this place

461
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:29.759
<v Speaker 3>and at least get the intake process done so if

462
00:24:29.799 --> 00:24:32.079
<v Speaker 3>worst comes the worst Tuesday, you have a place to

463
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:36.480
<v Speaker 3>and that you know, well it's not today.

464
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:39.880
<v Speaker 5>So you know, I did the best we could.

465
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:43.279
<v Speaker 3>And I offered that you know, we have meetings here

466
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:47.599
<v Speaker 3>on Saturday and Sunday, and that they were welcome to

467
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:50.480
<v Speaker 3>come and attend our meetings. And you know, I wish

468
00:24:50.519 --> 00:24:53.839
<v Speaker 3>them the best of luck and and hopes that they

469
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:57.519
<v Speaker 3>can you know, find a place and get to where

470
00:24:57.559 --> 00:25:00.440
<v Speaker 3>they need to go. But I mean there's two size

471
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:02.119
<v Speaker 3>of it, Like I sit here and I want to

472
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 3>meet that I want to get them somewhere, but at

473
00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:07.599
<v Speaker 3>the same time, like, was I working harder than them

474
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:08.119
<v Speaker 3>to get there?

475
00:25:10.079 --> 00:25:12.400
<v Speaker 2>And there was a place in Grand Rapids that was

476
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:16.279
<v Speaker 2>like I'm on now and talking about guiding light and

477
00:25:16.279 --> 00:25:19.359
<v Speaker 2>we prefer people there a lot. And that's when you

478
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:21.960
<v Speaker 2>can really kind of sort out the people that are

479
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:23.920
<v Speaker 2>just saying stuff that they need to say to try

480
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:26.559
<v Speaker 2>to get in somewhere and the people that are actually

481
00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:30.200
<v Speaker 2>wanting it. Because the people that are wanting it go, So.

482
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:33.039
<v Speaker 4>Here's a possible plug for them, and a question for

483
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:34.440
<v Speaker 4>you because I wasn't sure I.

484
00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:38.480
<v Speaker 7>Is there totally does not Dick pic doesn't.

485
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:39.279
<v Speaker 2>Pick the question.

486
00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:48.960
<v Speaker 4>Is there? Women's open? Yes, awesome. So know before they

487
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:51.200
<v Speaker 4>were talking about June and I just hadn't followed up

488
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:55.240
<v Speaker 4>with them since Choll I think maybe the end of June. Yeah,

489
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:57.400
<v Speaker 4>And so that's cool. That's really cool because that was

490
00:25:57.440 --> 00:25:59.640
<v Speaker 4>a long time and you know, work a long time

491
00:25:59.640 --> 00:25:59.960
<v Speaker 4>in the work.

492
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, gouting light is it. It's a kind of a

493
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:04.279
<v Speaker 2>different program. They're not funded through the state. They're runoff

494
00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:09.680
<v Speaker 2>donations and they have this program. It's long. It's like

495
00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:13.160
<v Speaker 2>nine months, which is how it probably should be. And

496
00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:16.079
<v Speaker 2>it's not for everybody, just like every other program isn't

497
00:26:16.119 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 2>for everybody. There's there's not one that's just tailored for everybody.

498
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:21.519
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's gonna be happy. Some people bitch sometimes when they

499
00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:23.440
<v Speaker 2>go to a place or I can't vape and I

500
00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:26.599
<v Speaker 2>can't smoke, or can't do this, I can't use my phone.

501
00:26:28.200 --> 00:26:28.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, make me.

502
00:26:28.839 --> 00:26:33.119
<v Speaker 6>Work out, hurt my back, you know, like there's there's

503
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:34.880
<v Speaker 6>different places that don't work out for I went.

504
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:36.839
<v Speaker 2>Through Guiding Light and it didn't didn't work for me.

505
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:40.480
<v Speaker 2>But I still think it's a great program, you know.

506
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:42.559
<v Speaker 2>And it's it's a place where people can go, especially

507
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:45.559
<v Speaker 2>if you're if they're serious about wanting the change that's needed,

508
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.400
<v Speaker 2>you want to change your whole life, give it a shot.

509
00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:51.519
<v Speaker 2>It's great. And they have like apartments. It's called the

510
00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Iron Horse or Iron House probably would make more sense.

511
00:26:55.680 --> 00:27:01.200
<v Speaker 2>It's not how it's not a horse. Oh is that?

512
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:03.400
<v Speaker 4>Sorry? Excuse me, Gez.

513
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.640
<v Speaker 7>But they oh totally does not Dick pic.

514
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so that that Dick pics hallway there yet. So

515
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad we got on AIRLA. But they they have

516
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:17.759
<v Speaker 2>this program where you can go live in these apartments.

517
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:20.119
<v Speaker 2>And I was talking to a guy last week. I

518
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:22.599
<v Speaker 2>offered it to him and he's like, well, I'm not

519
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:26.279
<v Speaker 2>trying to do no transitional sober living. I'm not standing

520
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:28.759
<v Speaker 2>in no sober living house. I'm like, well, actually it's apartment.

521
00:27:28.799 --> 00:27:32.160
<v Speaker 2>You have a roommate, and you'd have to be sober. Yes, well,

522
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:33.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to do all that. I just need

523
00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:36.680
<v Speaker 2>a place to live. I'm like, well, huh, I'm so

524
00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:39.480
<v Speaker 2>confused right now, so confused. And I don't know if

525
00:27:39.480 --> 00:27:40.799
<v Speaker 2>they would have taken him, but I was like, here's

526
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:42.599
<v Speaker 2>a phone number if he didn't even want it. You know,

527
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:45.039
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of crazy how some people will be setting

528
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:47.119
<v Speaker 2>their waists and I'm sure I was like that I

529
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:49.400
<v Speaker 2>would leave a treatment after a week, after a day

530
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:52.640
<v Speaker 2>something wasn't going my way. Nope, can't do it.

531
00:27:54.079 --> 00:27:56.559
<v Speaker 3>That just shows me that they're not at that absolute

532
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:01.720
<v Speaker 3>defeat yet, not ready to just you know, make a decision,

533
00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:05.119
<v Speaker 3>you know, be that totally humble, like okay, they got

534
00:28:05.119 --> 00:28:07.599
<v Speaker 3>all these rules, just go there, just to bide by

535
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:08.359
<v Speaker 3>them for today.

536
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:12.359
<v Speaker 2>Well I have to be there for my kids or

537
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:14.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, my kid has this thing, or I'm trying

538
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:16.720
<v Speaker 2>to the kids. That people use that a lot because

539
00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:18.720
<v Speaker 2>they think people are just gonna be like, oh, you know,

540
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:20.799
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna do an exception because you're waiting for your

541
00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:23.200
<v Speaker 2>kid and sometimes I have to go back to jail.

542
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.519
<v Speaker 2>I have to go back to prison. Well, how are

543
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:28.920
<v Speaker 2>you gonna tell the warden, Hey, I need to go

544
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:30.880
<v Speaker 2>out because I need to go to see the judge

545
00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:32.720
<v Speaker 2>and get my kid back so I can have them

546
00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:35.839
<v Speaker 2>in here. Like those are your options. Like, if those

547
00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:38.640
<v Speaker 2>are your options, that's a bad choice, especially if you're

548
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:40.960
<v Speaker 2>doing for someone else. Well I gotta protect this person

549
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:43.000
<v Speaker 2>or I gotta stay here for them or do this

550
00:28:43.079 --> 00:28:43.799
<v Speaker 2>for that person.

551
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:45.279
<v Speaker 3>Huh.

552
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:48.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well you're gonna go back to jail or prison

553
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:50.160
<v Speaker 2>and you're not going to see your kid for another

554
00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:53.279
<v Speaker 2>five years. Then, like how how's that winning?

555
00:28:54.359 --> 00:28:59.279
<v Speaker 3>Or Like what I was thinking is like, well, I mean, okay,

556
00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:01.960
<v Speaker 3>so you're you're you need to go back to court

557
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:04.519
<v Speaker 3>because you're fighting for custody back from your kids and

558
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:08.079
<v Speaker 3>they're going to terminate your rights. But yeah, I mean,

559
00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:11.240
<v Speaker 3>you're you're doing You're living like this right now and

560
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:14.799
<v Speaker 3>you're homeless, Like maybe you should try to go and

561
00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:16.200
<v Speaker 3>start helping yourself.

562
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Mh. But some people, they will get it twisted and

563
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:22.319
<v Speaker 2>I would do the same things, man, And I don't

564
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:25.920
<v Speaker 2>know if it's the addiction part or what. And it

565
00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:27.920
<v Speaker 2>just makes you make bad decisions.

566
00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:31.400
<v Speaker 7>It was totally does not dick Pica.

567
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:34.839
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't dick pick how I acted.

568
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:40.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm glad you said what you said, though, because it's

569
00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:45.640
<v Speaker 4>hard for me. It just not And when I say,

570
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:51.440
<v Speaker 4>obviously what you said, Corey the lady one, this is

571
00:29:51.480 --> 00:29:58.519
<v Speaker 4>difficult man, having you both in here, obviously, but it's

572
00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:02.440
<v Speaker 4>hard for me to not just kind of drop it

573
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:05.160
<v Speaker 4>and be like, all right, cool when they start doing

574
00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:09.559
<v Speaker 4>that because for my and I think you guys can relate,

575
00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:14.039
<v Speaker 4>But for me, it never worked. When I started to

576
00:30:14.079 --> 00:30:16.559
<v Speaker 4>do the but this, but that, but this, but that

577
00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:19.359
<v Speaker 4>and the last time was when I let go of

578
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:23.240
<v Speaker 4>all of everything and put the recovery first. Everything I

579
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:26.200
<v Speaker 4>didn't want to do, I let it go and if

580
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:27.759
<v Speaker 4>they wanted me to do it, that's what I did,

581
00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:29.119
<v Speaker 4>and it worked.

582
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:34.240
<v Speaker 3>I had to stop doing a lot of things I

583
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:36.119
<v Speaker 3>like doing and start doing a lot of things I

584
00:30:36.119 --> 00:30:37.119
<v Speaker 3>don't like doing.

585
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:39.519
<v Speaker 2>Things you need to do. That's how I looked at it.

586
00:30:39.640 --> 00:30:42.839
<v Speaker 2>Want need yep, do I want to? I remember having

587
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:45.000
<v Speaker 2>that debate with myself when I was at the treatment

588
00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 2>center last time, and I'm sitting there at the table,

589
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm making a pros and cons list and I turned

590
00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:53.839
<v Speaker 2>it into wants and needs list and do I want

591
00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:55.640
<v Speaker 2>to go to so we're living and live with you know,

592
00:30:55.720 --> 00:31:00.799
<v Speaker 2>eighteen guys or whatever it was? No, do I need to? Yes,

593
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.039
<v Speaker 2>what's gonna happen to me if I go there? You know,

594
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:06.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm afraid I'm gonna catch some sobriety time, you know, like, like,

595
00:31:07.079 --> 00:31:09.319
<v Speaker 2>what's what's the worst that's gonna happen. I'm not gonna

596
00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:11.240
<v Speaker 2>like somebody. Okay, there's a lot of people don't like,

597
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:13.640
<v Speaker 2>you know. And I learned that last time in treatment too,

598
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:18.240
<v Speaker 2>how to only not only control the things like only

599
00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:20.599
<v Speaker 2>that I can control. That might have to be a

600
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:24.119
<v Speaker 2>job because I didn't make any sense. But I also

601
00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:30.039
<v Speaker 2>learned that not everything's my Jesus crime, Ay, what's happening here?

602
00:31:31.079 --> 00:31:36.279
<v Speaker 2>Thanks again for listening. Yeah, yeah, so it was if

603
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:41.480
<v Speaker 2>I can get words out of the mouth, I can't

604
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:44.079
<v Speaker 2>control what other people do, and I only have to

605
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:47.359
<v Speaker 2>worry about the things that I can control. I need

606
00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:51.240
<v Speaker 2>some applause now, yes, yeah, I was trying to say yes,

607
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:55.960
<v Speaker 2>thank you. Thanks, and it made my life so much easier,

608
00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:58.319
<v Speaker 2>and it was it was a better way to navigate

609
00:31:58.480 --> 00:32:01.039
<v Speaker 2>through your life and through the thing that you're going through.

610
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:05.000
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know, but when people get caught up

611
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:07.000
<v Speaker 2>in other people's problems or other people's business there or

612
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 2>other people's things, start doing it for someone else, it

613
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:10.839
<v Speaker 2>just doesn't work. But yeah, if you can make that

614
00:32:10.880 --> 00:32:15.519
<v Speaker 2>wance needs list, it'll it'll really help you kind of determine.

615
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:16.960
<v Speaker 2>But a lot of people aren't ready. And I wasn't

616
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:18.640
<v Speaker 2>ready for the longest time because I still wanted to

617
00:32:18.720 --> 00:32:21.160
<v Speaker 2>drink one day. You know, I'll wait five years and

618
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:24.960
<v Speaker 2>I'll drink. I couldn't wait two weeks. Sometimes after leaving treatment.

619
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:29.480
<v Speaker 3>I always like to say two to like, you know,
