Speaker 1: Oh my right, Ellie, Yeah, I remember her. I remember

61
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,560
when she was born because I was in the hospital.

62
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,199
So she's five. That's when I had my hysterectomy.

63
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: Oh wow, she was born the same.

64
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: Week I had my Yeah, wow, I know.

65
00:03:27,879 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 2: Time flies. I know if five is the big one,

66
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,240
is the big one?

67
00:03:33,479 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know he's getting to the Patrick's getting to

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,879
the corner office, except he's got the little baby. Yeah yeah,

69
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:41,159
so he's still got a little time.

70
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:41,719
Speaker 2: Yeah.

71
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 4: But man, that five, I thought that wasn't until.

72
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: Like, no, yeah, that's it starts. It starts like five to.

73
00:03:49,159 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: Like six seven.

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: He's in a cubicle.

75
00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: It's like, yes, he's he's he's out of the mail room,

76
00:03:55,879 --> 00:03:58,039
but he's not Yeah, he's not in the corner office yet,

77
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,080
that's true. Feel like he's still because the baby is

78
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,479
like what not even not even like like he's over

79
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:05,800
a year.

80
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:08,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he's You think he's good going on too?

81
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh wow, okay, so he's still he's going he's

82
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,840
still in the mail room. Now he's in the mail

83
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:20,600
room with the baby. But she's like that's like a cubicle. Yes,

84
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,639
he's got some plus. As I always say, when they're five,

85
00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:27,120
they can kind of be your buddy, right and depending

86
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,920
on the personality. Well, I always said when they knew

87
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,199
that if they got in front of if they walked

88
00:04:32,199 --> 00:04:34,000
in the street, they're gonna get it by a car,

89
00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:37,279
like you know. And then at five was when like

90
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:39,439
Sonny was going downstairs to turn the TV on by

91
00:04:39,519 --> 00:04:42,120
himself when he get up up in the morning to

92
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,560
watch the History Channel, remember that.

93
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: Trains.

94
00:04:48,079 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 4: It is so nice that I can just walk out

95
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:50,560
and turn the TV.

96
00:04:51,079 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

97
00:04:52,199 --> 00:04:55,399
Speaker 4: I have to Yeah, so little, that little thing helps

98
00:04:55,399 --> 00:04:55,839
so much.

99
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: It does. Yeah, when they don't have to like come

100
00:04:59,639 --> 00:05:02,160
to you in the morning when they wake up and

101
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:03,920
wake you up for everything.

102
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 3: It's funny because now they can turn the TV on,

103
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,079
but now they both fight over the remote, so we're

104
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,480
constantly going like, don't touch the remote, that it's only

105
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,199
for adults. And then it's like, I don't want you

106
00:05:13,199 --> 00:05:15,600
to go turn the TV on. I don't want to

107
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:18,000
get out. So I think they're getting a little confused

108
00:05:18,079 --> 00:05:20,319
by by the long laying down.

109
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,959
Speaker 1: That's so funny. See, I got lucky because Sonny would

110
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000
get up and in the morning like clockwork at eight am,

111
00:05:28,079 --> 00:05:31,759
and Italia would just asleep the sleep asleep, so she

112
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,519
would be sleeping in like her mama, and Sonny would

113
00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:38,920
go on the on the yeah, play with his trains.

114
00:05:39,639 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 2: I feel like I didn't quite get that because you know,

115
00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:47,319
by the time LB was old enough to do that,

116
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,160
the twins were only two, so there was a lot

117
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,759
I think I was always yeah yeah, having to be

118
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,160
woken up. Yeah. I don't think she could handle trying

119
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,600
to help Sadie Sider at two years old. Yeah yeah, yeah,

120
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,759
that was kind of a nightmare. I don't I don't

121
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,959
miss those days. I don't not those days. I miss

122
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,279
Elb being five, and then I miss her being like seven,

123
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,040
I miss all those I miss seven with LB. Yeah,

124
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,879
she came home. I was we have like this great

125
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,360
little talk because she was telling me that because and

126
00:06:24,399 --> 00:06:26,959
I'll get to this too, because Xander is right at

127
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,959
that age because he's a junior when we're and Sadie two.

128
00:06:31,319 --> 00:06:36,120
But Sadie's probably on a slightly different trajectory trajectory than Xander.

129
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,839
But we were talking a lot about college and how

130
00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:46,920
and her messed up journey. But you know, because she

131
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,720
got turned down for all those schools, it made her

132
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,680
getting into them after the year of Pierce that much sweeter.

133
00:06:55,319 --> 00:06:58,160
It was actually such a beautiful feeling, like she's so

134
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,839
relieved and happy, and you know, she wouldn't have had

135
00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:03,240
those high highs without the low low Yeah, you know.

136
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,560
But also she was telling me that, you know, a

137
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,000
lot of people sometimes are like, you know, cause they're

138
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,759
they think it's cool that she goes to UCLA, but

139
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,839
when they find out she lives in LA people are like,

140
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,639
do you ever feel like you're too close to home?

141
00:07:17,839 --> 00:07:21,360
And she's like, hell no, I love it. I love

142
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,560
that I can just you know, She's like, I still

143
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,160
feel like I'm fully a college student. I have my

144
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,000
own life at my apartment. I'm I don't feel at

145
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,680
all like, I don't go to college. She's like, but

146
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,720
I love the idea that I could just go home

147
00:07:36,759 --> 00:07:39,839
for an afternoon even if I want to, and I have,

148
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,959
like I know where my car is. I could get

149
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,839
to my car if I knowed it, I could get

150
00:07:43,879 --> 00:07:47,600
to other stuff. And she's like and honestly like, I

151
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,839
like being able to see my parents, Like, I know,

152
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,439

00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:46,080
though it's eighteen and older. And I said, why didn't you?

167
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,480
Why did you?

168
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 2: You know?

169
00:08:47,799 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: And she goes because I left my real idea at

170
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,080
home in Santa Barbara. I'm like, okay, that's not good.

171
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:54,919
Speaker 2: Good because.

172
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: I know I know she didn't she forgot so so

173
00:08:59,759 --> 00:09:02,159
she was like okay. So anyways, they got kicked out,

174
00:09:02,159 --> 00:09:04,639
so her other friends got in and then her and

175
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,919
her bff that she grew up with, who went with them.

176
00:09:09,879 --> 00:09:11,960
They did. They didn't take they took their ID.

177
00:09:12,879 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, why they they thought it was a fake. Yeah,

178
00:09:17,879 --> 00:09:18,240
I mean.

179
00:09:18,159 --> 00:09:21,919
Speaker 1: It was, but I mean they I guess, yeah, they

180
00:09:21,919 --> 00:09:26,120
took it and well they they let the girls in,

181
00:09:26,879 --> 00:09:28,799
but then the two girls went back but they were

182
00:09:28,879 --> 00:09:32,360
keeping the ID and then they had the balls or

183
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,879
their friend but they kept something like that. I don't know.

184
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,840
But they got in for like a couple of minutes

185
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,200
and then they got they they went and got him

186
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,720
and then kicked him out. Yeah, something like that. So

187
00:09:43,919 --> 00:09:46,559
they were like holding on. I think the guy had it.

188
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,399
Speaker 2: And wanted to show his manager because he was suspect

189
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,919
sus So that's what happened.

190
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: So her other girls went in. But anyway, it was

191
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,840
nice because they both came home and hung out with

192
00:09:57,879 --> 00:10:01,600
me in my bedroom on Saturday night. It was really cute.

193
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:06,159
And then yesterday, I because I'm going on a trip

194
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,480
we'll talk about and I'm going to Florida, and I

195
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,639
don't have any like summer clothes. So I took Natalie

196
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,720
out to lunch and went to the mall and we

197
00:10:14,759 --> 00:10:16,960
had a nice time. And then she drove home back

198
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,519
to Santa Barbara with no ID. With no ID, but

199
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:21,639
at least she has it there.

200
00:10:21,759 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and she probably because this is how it goes

201
00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:28,399
with the fake ID, she probably has a backup ID.

202
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 1: No, she said she doesn't have one. She lost that

203
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,759
one too. She's like, now I'm all fresh out of IDs.

204
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,759
I'm like, all right, well that's good, you don't need one.

205
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: Oh no, I'm sure she'll order another one. That's gonna

206
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,000
It's not that expensive is the crazy part. And they

207
00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:44,879
get too thought it was going to be like I

208
00:10:44,919 --> 00:10:47,240
thought LB would have spent like five hundred dollars because

209
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,799
she said it was expensive. It was like one hundred dollars.

210
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:51,440
She had two IDs.

211
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it was like fifty for an for

212
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,720
one ID or I guess they send you to Yeah.

213
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:02,279
Speaker 2: Elbie said that her. Okay, so the fake id's work

214
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,200
really well at this one bar that's near UCLA. Her

215
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,559
ID is scannable, so they scan them and if it scans,

216
00:11:10,639 --> 00:11:13,679
most people are like great, you know. And she's used

217
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:19,480
it at Target, at like grocery store if they need

218
00:11:19,519 --> 00:11:22,399
to scan the ID. But she told me that there

219
00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:27,159
are certain bars in Westwood that are known for being

220
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,840
sticklers and will will take your ID. But I'm like,

221
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,399
how do they how can they prove that? Like if

222
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,799
they if it scans, it scans, right, And She's like,

223
00:11:36,279 --> 00:11:40,480
not necessarily some people. Some places are just really strict.

224
00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: Caitlin, did you have a fake ID?

225
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 4: I did?

226
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,759
Speaker 1: I feel? Who do you ad a fake ID?

227
00:11:44,919 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah, We've talked about this ten of times. I

228
00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:49,919
had the welfare I d remember that did that looked

229
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,480
nothing like me? And I had the other ID that

230
00:11:52,519 --> 00:11:55,559
I got from someone's purse that I stole.

231
00:11:55,519 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: Right right, I'm not proud, I know, bragging. I was

232
00:11:59,399 --> 00:12:02,200
a terrible I found, you know, I found my idea.

233
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,120
I found a California driver's license had a rat concert

234
00:12:06,159 --> 00:12:09,879
on the floor and then she was brown hair, brown eyes,

235
00:12:10,519 --> 00:12:13,600
and my height, my weight, And I went to the

236
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,720
DMV and I memorized her info and I said, I'm

237
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:21,399
Diane Warren and I lost my ID and at the

238
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,159
time they're like, okay, they take your picture and then

239
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,960
you just change your mailing address to my mailing address,

240
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:30,840
is what I did. I mean, now that I think

241
00:12:30,879 --> 00:12:31,919
about it, that's criminal.

242
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,919
Speaker 2: I think, like, oh, you stole someone's identifications. Yeah, yeah,

243
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:41,240
back in the eighties. Oh well, remember the story about

244
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:46,039
how I had taken I guess i'd taken I probably

245
00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:49,360
didn't steal her whole purse, but I think I the

246
00:12:49,399 --> 00:12:52,159
purse was in a bathroom and I went in the wallet.

247
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,639
I took the wallet and then I left it like

248
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,120
I took. But whatever it was, I stole. I stole

249
00:12:57,159 --> 00:13:01,440
her ID. And then you know, this was Springfield, Massachusetts,

250
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,320
so pretty small. All the same people went to all

251
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,399
the same bars every weekend, and it was very much

252
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,960
like Thursdays we go to the kegroom, Fridays we go

253
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,240
to the bar association. Yeah, Saturday we go to this place.

254
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:18,799
So one whatever day, I was using the girl's ID. Also,

255
00:13:18,879 --> 00:13:21,720
she looked nothing like me. She was tall with red hair.

256
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,720
Oh my, but I didn't you know, whatever they listen,

257
00:13:25,759 --> 00:13:28,919
it's a mafia to usually didn't give a fuck, right right,

258
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,799
whatever you're showing me, ID, I don't care. But one

259
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,639
bouncer knew the girl whose ID I had, oh, and

260
00:13:38,639 --> 00:13:42,240
was like the fuck, like this is my friends, you know,

261
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,200
this is not you. And then he took the ID

262
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,879
and kicked me out and said, don't ever come O.

263
00:13:47,799 --> 00:13:50,919
That sucks, I know.

264
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 1: And I used Wendy's ID when she gave me one

265
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,759
of her driver's license to get into the Red Onion.

266
00:13:56,039 --> 00:13:58,919
She's like, here, just try it. She's ten years older

267
00:13:58,919 --> 00:14:01,799
than me, so I was like nineteen, you know, but

268
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,159
it said I was twenty nine. And she had green

269
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,320
when he has big green eyes and black hair at

270
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,039
the time, like pale skin, and I got this like

271
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,200
fro and brown eyes and nothing like her, and I

272
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,440
got taken away soon as I tried it. They're like, nice, try.

273
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,639
Speaker 2: Did you ever have one taken away? Kaitlin?

274
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,759
Speaker 3: No, I didn't, but I got them at the same

275
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,080
time that I was dating someone, so she got two

276
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,480
as well. We both got two each, and both of

277
00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:33,879
hers got taken away pretty quickly, and they never taken

278
00:14:33,919 --> 00:14:36,240
away hers dead and mine didn't. I never got mine

279
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,799
taken away. But they were Arizona. They were Arizona. I

280
00:14:40,919 --> 00:14:44,240
d's and I remember going to a bar that one

281
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,000
up at Universal and I give it to the bartender

282
00:14:48,279 --> 00:14:50,679
and he looks at it and then he points to

283
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:53,000
his arm and there's like a number on his arm

284
00:14:53,799 --> 00:14:56,080
and he's like, looking at me, give me a thumbs up.

285
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,879
Speaker 4: Like look, look thet thumbs up. And I was like,

286
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,480
what are you talking about. He goes, it's it's our

287
00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:01,759
area code in.

288
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 3: Arizona, and I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, totally cool man, Yeah,

289
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:06,480
I got you.

290
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:11,639
Speaker 2: Now, that's what they would like.

291
00:15:11,679 --> 00:15:15,039
Speaker 1: They well, like so not that, but like at the time,

292
00:15:15,159 --> 00:15:17,480
like me and my friends had had fake id's. Anytime

293
00:15:17,519 --> 00:15:19,200
you went to one of the bars, they would always

294
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,240
go what's your sign? What what year were you? Or like,

295
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,519
you know, they'd ask you, you know, questions that you

296
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:26,799
should know off the top of your head, right yeah,

297
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,000
like nobody ever.

298
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: The good thing for LB is that, well a she

299
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,320
has a good memory. So she has a different address

300
00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:38,360
obviously because she lives in New Jersey. But her info

301
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,519
is the same, except for the year is one off. Okay,

302
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,039
it's always going to be twenty one this year. Yeah,

303
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,879
but so it's the year's one off, so it but

304
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,919
her name is the same. Uh, Like I said, the

305
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,759
address is different but her birthday is the same. It's

306
00:15:54,759 --> 00:15:56,919
just one year office. So she said she has been

307
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,320
questioned before really a target. Yeah, we'll ask her, you know,

308
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,440
oh or whatever, what what year were you born? And

309
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,200
then she says it and then they're like, oh, okay,

310
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,320
or her address she's been asked for.

311
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: Before, right, right, Yeah, gotta memorize that ship.

312
00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:14,399
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, but she still says she gets nervous when

313
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,960
she has to show it, like at a target.

314
00:16:16,279 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't blame her.

315
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,399
Speaker 2: Wow. I can't believe though, that Natalia got hers taken.

316
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: Away her and her friend they both did. Yeah, that's

317
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,279
so crazy. But it was nice because they came in

318
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,840
my room. They hung out with me. I was watching

319
00:16:31,919 --> 00:16:36,840
the interview with what's her face on dateline Valo.

320
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 2: Or Valo? Did you see that?

321
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:46,679
Speaker 1: Did you see that interview? Oh my god, she's insane.

322
00:16:47,159 --> 00:16:50,440
She she just was rambling. I mean, Keith Morrison was

323
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,679
like making mocking her, like voiceover mocking her. But like

324
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,759
it was, you have to watch it. It's she kept

325
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,399
rambling and she acted like it was disgusting. I can't

326
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:05,200
even imagine what she was thinking when he was talking

327
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,880
to her about her kids, and she was like yeah,

328
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:14,000
you know my daughter, uh whatever, Kaylee whatever her name was. Yeah,

329
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,920

332
00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:26,400
anyways because she had pancreatis or some ship. Like, oh

334
00:17:30,519 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 2: She's not getting out of jail for she's she's in

335
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:36,359
safe for her kids. But now she's being tried for

336
00:17:36,519 --> 00:17:37,599
her brother.

337
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: She's being yeah, for her No, for the ex husband.

338
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 2: The husband, yeah, that one of the ex husbands.

339
00:17:45,559 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: Right.

340
00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 2: And then there was one that's that claims that there

341
00:17:49,039 --> 00:17:49,880
was an attempt on this.

342
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: Yes, right, like his niece her nieces Yeah, yeah, yeah

343
00:17:53,519 --> 00:17:56,440
that guy. Yes. And she's representing herself.

344
00:17:56,799 --> 00:18:00,559
Speaker 2: Oh perfect, isn't that great that I hope the cameras

345
00:18:00,559 --> 00:18:05,559
are in the courtroom. Yeah. I cannot even believe, like

346
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,400
just and why even try her? Just leave her in jail, right, right.

347
00:18:10,759 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: And she told her son, her son has a podcast,

348
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,759
her oldest son has a podcast, and he he was

349
00:18:17,799 --> 00:18:21,400
interviewed and he like he doesn't he hasn't like spoken

350
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,920
to her, but except for on the podcast. And she

351
00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:28,759
told him that she asked Kaylee to put the little

352
00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:32,920
boy to bed, and he was like, he was screaming,

353
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,599
and and she said, you know how, Kaylee gets really

354
00:18:35,759 --> 00:18:38,079
like doesn't like it when kids scream in the in

355
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,680
the building or whatever, or in the apartment. So she

356
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,440
put her hand over his mouth and his nose and

357
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,720
she accidentally killed him. And then she felt so guilty

358
00:18:47,799 --> 00:18:51,079
that she killed herself. That's what she said to her son.

359
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

360
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,519

365
00:19:07,799 --> 00:19:10,279
When they came to us and asked if this product

366
00:19:10,319 --> 00:19:14,039

369
00:19:20,839 --> 00:19:23,480
the change, suspecting we might be going to the change.

370
00:19:23,559 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, everybody's bracing for it.

Speaker 1: About that.

427
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 2: My speech and debate this. This may go parton because

428
00:22:42,279 --> 00:22:44,400
I have a cop I want to break it down.

429
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,240
I want to tell you all the irritations too. Yes,

430
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:50,000
because that's the fun part. Okay, Yeah, even though people

431
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,079
will sometimes be like, god, you know, you complain a lot,

432
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,000
but it's fun. It's called venting, right, it's called doing

433
00:22:57,079 --> 00:23:03,119
a podcast. Okay. So there's so much to break up.

434
00:23:03,079 --> 00:23:04,519
Speaker 1: To Part two to Friday.

435
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we may have to may have to

436
00:23:06,599 --> 00:23:11,039
get to the that part. But so Friday, this was

437
00:23:11,079 --> 00:23:14,240
two days of this. So this was the big it's

438
00:23:14,279 --> 00:23:19,519
the state qualifier. So Xander, leading up to this, he's

439
00:23:19,559 --> 00:23:23,799
been working really hard. He's been rehurt practicing a bunch

440
00:23:23,799 --> 00:23:28,960
of times, and like a few days before this event,

441
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,440
he had been practicing with me and he just got

442
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,039
he got upset. He was like because he would forget

443
00:23:35,039 --> 00:23:37,920
a line. And then he was like, I just I'm

444
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,799
putting so much pressure on myself and.

445
00:23:40,519 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: That's what makes him good.

446
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,079
Speaker 2: Though. I have that stand up background, and I'm like, listen,

447
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,480
don't suffer the way I did. You know. I was

448
00:23:48,559 --> 00:23:52,440
kind of giving him the really doesn't matter, Like I said,

449
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:56,000
it's so subjective, because it really is. These judges, their

450
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,279
decisions on these are all over the place, right half

451
00:24:00,319 --> 00:24:02,519
these judges have never judged before. They don't know what

452
00:24:02,519 --> 00:24:05,279
they're doing. They don't bother to like watch a video

453
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,119
and figure anything out about it. Sort Of like me,

454
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,200
I was just gonna say, no, you need I watched

455
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,440
the video. You didn't understand.

456
00:24:12,559 --> 00:24:14,759
Speaker 1: You need to do a training for these parents them

457
00:24:14,839 --> 00:24:16,079
get there a half hour early.

458
00:24:16,279 --> 00:24:21,839
Speaker 2: I shouldeh, Well, they so pay. They have somebody who does,

459
00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:25,400
like tell everybody how to do it. But it's so

460
00:24:25,559 --> 00:24:29,559
much information that I think people, especially if they're anything

461
00:24:29,599 --> 00:24:31,559
like me, they tune out. They don't they've never done

462
00:24:31,559 --> 00:24:34,400
it before, so they're like, wait, what yeh, she's telling

463
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,400
everybody okay, and then this round is like this, and

464
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:37,960
this round is like this, and then you're gonna want

465
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,599
to do this, and then you're going to this one

466
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,480
needs a time, right, this one doesn't. I have no

467
00:24:42,519 --> 00:24:45,759
idea what's going on. So you get these judges that

468
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,160
really do it incorrectly when they're in the room, and

469
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:55,000
it's frustrating for the students. But anyway, so.

470
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,279
Speaker 1: What was his speech are?

471
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 2: So his speech is it's called there's a a lot

472
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:05,720
of different categories of speeches. Some speeches, now I'm going

473
00:25:05,799 --> 00:25:07,960
to sound like the lady who tells it. Some speeches

474
00:25:08,039 --> 00:25:12,359
are you're doing someone else's speech. So there's something called declamation,

475
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,880
and that is you've memorized a speech that somebody else

476
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,720
has given and that's pretty cool, Like you have to

477
00:25:19,759 --> 00:25:21,559
make it sound like your own, and you know it,

478
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,559
have to make it believable. But Xander's speech is even

479
00:25:25,599 --> 00:25:29,480
harder because it's original, so it's called original oratory. He

480
00:25:29,519 --> 00:25:32,920
wrote the speech himself. It's a ten minute speech, and

481
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:39,079
his speech is about it's loosely about toxic masculinity, but

482
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,240
it's about how men, because of the way society is,

483
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,759
it's not acceptable for men to show vulnerability, and how

484
00:25:46,799 --> 00:25:49,240
we need to change that. How there's more than one

485
00:25:49,279 --> 00:25:53,400
way to like be a guy, and how the idea

486
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,880
that men are not supposed to be emotional or show

487
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:03,039
vulnerability often leads to mental illness and depression, physical symptoms.

488
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,480
And we need to be able to embrace ourselves and

489
00:26:06,519 --> 00:26:10,400
that there's not one way. And it's a great speech

490
00:26:10,799 --> 00:26:13,400
and there's a lot of humor in it. Yeah, And

491
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,960
I have told him, I'm like the fact that your

492
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,119
speech is funny is going to stand out. But it's

493
00:26:21,079 --> 00:26:24,400
you know, it's scary and you're standing up and okay.

494
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:29,160
So the way it works is each room has one

495
00:26:29,279 --> 00:26:34,319
judge for all the preliminary rounds. So basically, you think,

496
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,359
because people pictured it in their minds, like you're in

497
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,799
a big auditorium with all these people and one by

498
00:26:39,839 --> 00:26:41,640
one they go up and they give a speech. No,

499
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,720
it's not like that, right, there's a ton of kids.

500
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:48,720
You'd be there for five days. If every kid has

501
00:26:48,759 --> 00:26:51,599
to know what it is is it's you're out of school.

502
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,200
They split them up into classrooms. One judge per like

503
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,640
seven kids. You might have five, six or seven kids.

504
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: There's one judge that could be a parent that just

505
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:04,880
started that day.

506
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 2: Literally, yes, and they're the only one in the room. Yeah,

507
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:14,640
that's so. No, one's doesn't sound checking their work or yeah, exactly,

508
00:27:15,799 --> 00:27:20,720
so it really you could have so you you might get,

509
00:27:20,759 --> 00:27:23,319
I might get, like, let's say I get. I'll tell

510
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,000
you the ones that I got that day. But there's

511
00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:29,880
there's a thing called impromptu, which is basically these kids

512
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,880
get two minutes, they get a topic, You give them

513
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,839
a topic, the judge does, they get two minutes to

514
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,640
think about it, and then they get five minutes and

515
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,079
they have to give a speech off the top of

516
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:40,480
their head.

517
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: That's insane. And you were saying like and then something.

518
00:27:43,759 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 2: I judge that one yesterday you did, Yeah.

519
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: What were some of the topics?

520
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 2: One of one kid got the topic table and it

521
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,640
was terrible. I mean it had nothing. A lot of

522
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,559
times these kids will have some set speeches in their

523
00:27:57,599 --> 00:28:00,759
mind and then they'll try to shoe horn it into

524
00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:03,680
the topic they get, but you can sniff it out

525
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,480
a mile away. It's like a fake id like I'm

526
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:10,359
taking this now. But then so then so you watch

527
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,039
all of your kids. But so if a category is

528
00:28:13,039 --> 00:28:17,640
a pretty big category, like Xander's category had twenty seven kids,

529
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:22,400
so there were four different rooms, then that's the first round.

530
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,799
Then they do a second round and they're in with

531
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,119
different kids and a different judge. Wow. Then there's a

532
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:33,079
third round, different kids, different judge. Then of those kids,

533
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:37,039
whoever's ranking the highest, they go to a semi final round. Wait.

534
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,359
Speaker 1: So when they go to the different judges, different kids,

535
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,240
different judge, they're still doing the same they're still.

536
00:28:43,079 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 2: Doing the same speech. Okay, and they do it throughout

537
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,519
the year. Okay, So okay, but when does the impromptu

538
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,200
ones come in or there? So it's all happening at

539
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,039
the same time. So you go into this giant room

540
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,799
with all the judges at eight o'clock in the morning,

541
00:28:58,319 --> 00:29:01,200
and then they do they they give you a ballot,

542
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,839
which means that you're you're on your computer, and so

543
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,200
you see what is on your ballot and it's like,

544
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,559
I see, oh, you have an impromptu And then I

545
00:29:10,599 --> 00:29:13,079
go to a room. It tells you what room you're in,

546
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,319
and then there's seven kids waiting outside that classroom and

547
00:29:17,519 --> 00:29:21,599
all of the other judges. Some other people might get impromptu,

548
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,960
but some people might get humorous interpretations. Some people might

549
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,720
get Xander's category original oratory. There's so many there's a

550
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:35,559
lot of different categories declamation. There's dramatic, interpretation. There's some

551
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:40,359
of the categories of There was a duo improv which

552
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,319
Xander competed in, but it's that's not a category that

553
00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:50,079
can go to the stack competition. Okay, so certain categories

554
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:54,680
don't qualify, aren't They're not like serious enough, right, So

555
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,640
Xander was only competing in his original oratory, which is

556
00:29:58,839 --> 00:30:02,519
more I don't want to say it's more prestigious. It's

557
00:30:02,599 --> 00:30:05,319
just harder because there's more kids in it. So the

558
00:30:05,359 --> 00:30:08,160
biggest ones are impromptu. A lot of kids do that

559
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,799
because they don't have to prepare, so a lot of

560
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,400
kids compete in that, which it is an art form,

561
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,480
though it is like you have to be able to

562
00:30:16,559 --> 00:30:19,839
be really well spoken and fake confidence because like if

563
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,920
you get a topic and you're like, right, but the

564
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:29,240
original one. Oh, there's also one called original prose and poetry,

565
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:33,960
and that's the one. The first one I ever judged,

566
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,079
where I told you I was like, wait, what the

567
00:30:36,079 --> 00:30:39,319
fuck like and I had to stop them all in

568
00:30:40,119 --> 00:30:43,279
between and I was like, wait, so this somebody wrote

569
00:30:43,319 --> 00:30:46,519
this right? And they're like, yeah, we did. And I

570
00:30:46,599 --> 00:30:51,200
was like that does not seem possible, Like what right?

571
00:30:51,359 --> 00:30:55,000
They're like, yeah, these are all written by us. They're original, unbelievable,

572
00:30:55,039 --> 00:30:57,880
And I was like, you guys are this is crazy?

573
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,720
I was because from that first round I ever did,

574
00:31:02,759 --> 00:31:06,000
I'm like, these kids are such freaking go getters. They're

575
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:12,559
so talented it's crazy. And the category that Xanders in

576
00:31:12,759 --> 00:31:16,480
is another original. They're giving these ten minute original speeches.

577
00:31:17,519 --> 00:31:23,680
They're so good. The competition is fierce. So okay, So

578
00:31:24,599 --> 00:31:29,240
Friday was the first it started. That was round one

579
00:31:29,799 --> 00:31:33,839
and I was supposed to be driving another kid. So

580
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,279
this is the thing I'm going to complain about. Why

581
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,279
they're the parents that are go getters, that offered, that

582
00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:43,799
are volunteering to judge. And then they're the parents who

583
00:31:43,839 --> 00:31:46,359
do not give a fuck at all, don't even know

584
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,960
where their kids are, has no idea what day it is.

585
00:31:49,039 --> 00:31:51,920
I don't think even understand what their kids are doing.

586
00:31:52,319 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: Well, that's the crazy part because the first thing when

587
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,839
you said that to me, my first my first thought was,

588
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,160
what wouldn't you want to be in the car alone

589
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,640
with Xander? Or wouldn't this other kid want to his

590
00:32:05,799 --> 00:32:07,880
parents want to be alone in the car so that

591
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,720
they can go through it and talk it through as

592
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,440
they're on their way down there, and give them confidence,

593
00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:15,079
like they don't even they don't even go to the

594
00:32:15,119 --> 00:32:15,960
thing to watch.

595
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,039
Speaker 2: It is shocking.

596
00:32:17,319 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

597
00:32:18,559 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 2: First of all, there's not really it's not really conducive

598
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:25,119
to going to watch because there's nothing to watch. If

599
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,160
any judging, you're not going to see anything, you can't.

600
00:32:28,279 --> 00:32:30,759
You could go in a room and watch your kid

601
00:32:31,359 --> 00:32:34,480
and some parents do it that are like Tiger moms

602
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,680
or Tiger dads. But it's weird because you're going to

603
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,640
be in a room judging. A parent was like, oh,

604
00:32:41,799 --> 00:32:43,119
that my kid's in here.

605
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,119
Speaker 1: Do you mind if I watch? You're going to be like,

606
00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:47,440
I get that, guess. But what about at the end

607
00:32:47,519 --> 00:32:49,319
when they want award ceremony?

608
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, very seldom do they show up for that.

609
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,039
Speaker 1: They don't say like what time is the award ceremony

610
00:32:55,079 --> 00:32:57,960
and I'll come down and meet you. That's crazy.

611
00:32:58,039 --> 00:33:01,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyonece in a while, but I will tell you

612
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,920
that at the beginning of the awards ceremony they always

613
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:11,119
say call your parents for your ride, because right, don't

614
00:33:11,279 --> 00:33:13,160
I don't know, I mean, maybe you know what. I

615
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:18,319
don't want to speak for other parents. But at our school, no, okay,

616
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,559
So I go to school, the coach is bringing a

617
00:33:21,559 --> 00:33:24,799
couple of the kids and the parents that are judging

618
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,160
were asked to if we could carpool because we were

619
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,559
going straight from school to another high school across town. Okay,

620
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,359
so I get there the kid I'm supposed to be driving.

621
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,720
Now we have to leave early the school because it's

622
00:33:39,759 --> 00:33:42,920
a freaking drive. It's in Burbank and we're in North

623
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,799
ridg This is on Friday after Friday after school and

624
00:33:47,039 --> 00:33:50,839
our school it's just so I get there, the kids

625
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,559
are all like in one room waiting for parents to

626
00:33:53,599 --> 00:33:57,240
take them. So I get Xander, and I'm supposed to

627
00:33:57,279 --> 00:34:00,960
take this other kid, let's call him Tommy Tommy. So

628
00:34:01,039 --> 00:34:03,119
I go to sign out. I sign out Xander and

629
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,319
I try to sign out Tommy and the office ladies

630
00:34:06,359 --> 00:34:09,880
are like, oh no, we don't have permission from Tommy's

631
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:14,039
parent for you to to release him to you what.

632
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:20,400
So immediately annoyed, of course, So I was like, well,

633
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,679
what do you mean, Like does he need permission? They're like, yeah,

634
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,079
his mom was supposed to email.

635
00:34:26,159 --> 00:34:27,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tommy's mom dropped the ball.

636
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,559
Speaker 2: Tommy's mom was supposed to email the school and give permission.

637
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,920
So now I'm like, Tommy chop chob what's up with

638
00:34:34,079 --> 00:34:38,599
your Your mom didn't send an email? And he's like, yeah,

00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:40,440
I don't know. I texted her this morning and I

640
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,480
asked her to, but I guess she didn't. And I

641
00:34:42,559 --> 00:34:46,800
was like, okay, what's that got to do with me?

642
00:34:47,199 --> 00:34:51,199
Like I get hurt, like how did you not during

643

00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,840
know in my anxiety, am I crazy?

645
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:58,079
Speaker 3: Now?

646
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,559
Speaker 1: It's just like that generation, And I think, or well,

00:35:26,199 --> 00:35:30,679
wants to talk to you, jeez. So Tommy's mom gets

657
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:35,159
on the phone. She's like, I let's just say I

658
00:35:35,199 --> 00:35:38,039
do not understand what she's saying. Okay. She has a

659
00:35:38,159 --> 00:35:43,320
very thick accent, and she's like, I don't understand if

660
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,480
she's true. So I'm just trying to speak to her,

661
00:35:46,559 --> 00:35:49,559
and I'm like, hey, Tommy's mom like, I'm here. We

662
00:35:49,599 --> 00:35:53,599
have to go, but they don't have your permission. And

663
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:56,639
so the I was like, could bless you? Excuse me?

664
00:35:57,639 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: I said, bless you? The fuck kind of sneeze is

665
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:05,679
at it's a kitten sneeze.

666
00:36:06,679 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 2: So I try to have Tommy's mom talk to the office.

667
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,679
They're like, no, we can't do it over the phone.

668
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,639
That she has to send an email. So I was like,

669
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,519
you need to send an email, but I cannot understand her.

670
00:36:16,519 --> 00:36:18,039
So I'm like, I'm gonna put you back on the

671
00:36:18,039 --> 00:36:21,880
phone with Tommy. So Tommy's like, Mom, you have to

672
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,840
email the school, and he's just telling her the email address. Okay.

673
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,159
Then he's like, okay, she's doing it right now. You

674
00:36:28,199 --> 00:36:32,920
know how that went. So I'm like, did you get

675
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,840
the email from her? They're like nah, yet nothing. So

676
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:37,760
that goes on for a while.

677
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 1: Guy's going this way, this guy's gone that way.

678
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:45,679
Speaker 2: What do you want to me? Hi? I am now

679
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,480
I'm tense. I'm about to go into traffic. I'm ten

680
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,840
for you. At this time, we got stuck in traffic.

681
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,280
There was an accident, so I was like, we got

682
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,599
to leave school early this time because I was legitimately late.

683
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,400
It was such bad traffic, couldn't even get to the

684
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,280
like the four h five. I was like, I am

685
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,039
not doing that again. Oh and especially now with all

686
00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:09,840
the fires and road closures on a Friday afternoon, you

687
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,400
can't get any everything's always and I got to take

688
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,519
like four different freeways. I got to be on the

689
00:37:14,519 --> 00:37:16,760
one eighteen, I gotta be on the five. I got

690
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,280
to be on the four h five. And it's gonna

691
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:19,880
be a nightmare cut off, right, lawson?

692
00:37:20,119 --> 00:37:20,639
Speaker 1: Yeah?

693
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:25,159
Speaker 2: Right. So so now I'm just getting so mad. So

694
00:37:25,199 --> 00:37:27,320
I'm like, Tommy, you got to call your mom back.

695
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,639
I don't think that she has the correct email address.

696
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,800
Oh meanwhile, our coach is upset too, and she's like,

697
00:37:33,559 --> 00:37:36,559
just text her at the email address because so then

698
00:37:36,599 --> 00:37:38,960
you hear Tommy on the phone with his mom going no,

699
00:37:39,199 --> 00:37:43,480
it's dot Org like no you did. Then Tommy's like, well,

700
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,800
my mom's driving right now, of course, And I'm like

701
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,519
I look at the coach. I'm like, I don't know

702
00:37:49,599 --> 00:37:51,639
what to tell you, but I can't. The coach figured

703
00:37:51,679 --> 00:37:53,159
that why do you have to get in the middle

704
00:37:53,159 --> 00:37:57,079
of that like can't well, because she's responsible. There's no

705
00:37:57,159 --> 00:38:00,920
assistant coach, there's nobody. She's a response for all of

706
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,840
these kids and making sure that they equally, that they

707
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,960
all get there, that they all have permission to leave

708
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,559
school early, and that they all have rides home. Because

709
00:38:09,639 --> 00:38:12,360
oh there's more, there's more to this. I love it.

710
00:38:12,559 --> 00:38:16,320
I love it. But first, Oh, you know what, we

711
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,760
have a new sponsor that I'm really excited about because

712
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,519
you know how I've told you that how picky Penelope

713
00:38:23,679 --> 00:38:28,239
is with her food. Yes, we have a new dog

714
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:32,480
food company called Spot and Tango, and they sent us

715
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:36,400
some food to try and people loves it. Listen. Spot

716
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,840
and Tango is a personalized dog food subscription that delivers

717
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,360
high quality, ready to serve meals, snacks, and supplements right

718
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,119
to your door, so no more last minute pet store runs.

719
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:51,800
And as you know, I have tried so many different foods.

720
00:38:52,159 --> 00:38:54,800
I've had so many different dog foods. I spend money

721
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:58,280
on really expensive foods. I've tried the ready to eat

722
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,239
foods that take up room in your fridge. What I

723
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,960
love about this is that it's dog food in a package.

724
00:39:05,079 --> 00:39:07,519
They only send you enough to last you through the month.

725
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,960
And then they'll just send you more. So, you know,

726
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,119
most kibbles packed with fillers and some kind of like

727
00:39:13,199 --> 00:39:16,159
mystery ingredients and who knows what's really in it. But

728
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,320
spotan Tango does things differently. Their unkibble meals are made

729
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,760
with human grade ingredients including USDA meat, fruits and veggies,

730
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:29,360
no artificial stuff. They use a fresh dry process fresh

731
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,760
ingredients and they're gently cooked and freeze dried to lock in.

732
00:39:33,039 --> 00:39:36,559
But the most important thing is that people loves it.

733
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:39,239
It's delicious to the dogs and you can tell because

734
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,920
when you open the package, it actually has like a

735
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,599
really strong odor, which dogs love.

736
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, they do.

737
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:49,559
Speaker 2: You know, they're all so Spot and Tango is offering

Speaker 1: And let me tell you about Honeylove Shapewear because I

745
00:40:17,079 --> 00:40:20,320
discovered them on my own when I bought their crossover

746
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,760
bra because it gave me all the support of a

747
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,920
traditional bra without using any underwire. It's one of the

748
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,800
I bought two of them and I wear them all

749
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:33,400
the time. But they also their Honeylove's best selling product

750
00:40:33,519 --> 00:40:37,320
is Superpower Shorts, which is is the go to. It

751
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:42,440
targets compression technology and it distinguishes between the areas of

752
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,079
where you want more support and areas where you need

753
00:40:45,159 --> 00:40:48,559
less compression. It lifts up that booty, it does it,

754
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,599
and it also has a nice little area where you

755
00:40:51,639 --> 00:40:56,559
can just unsnap and easy access to go potty. But yes,

756
00:40:56,679 --> 00:41:00,480
so ladies, uh, you know, if you're struggling to take

757
00:41:00,679 --> 00:41:04,000

Honeylove is the one for you. And they have all

00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:41,519
Speaker 2: Hey, so okay, listen, we let's not spend too much

768
00:41:41,519 --> 00:41:46,119
time on Tommy. We eventually got Tommy released from school again, obviously,

769
00:41:46,159 --> 00:41:49,440
I guess eventually. Were you late? We were not late?

770
00:41:49,559 --> 00:41:51,920
Oh good, we were fine. There was no accident, so

771
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:56,199
there's just very normal traffic. We were actually early. After

772
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,679
all that, we had fun and Tommy was really fun

773
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,360
and and we listened to music and then we got

774
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,559
to school, to the school where it was being held

775
00:42:06,039 --> 00:42:08,440
and there was only one round though, but it was fun.

776
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:11,360
It's like such a fun day. You go in there,

777
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:15,079
you bond with like other judges. You. So, I have

778
00:42:15,119 --> 00:42:18,760
a friend. I think I've told you this before, but

779
00:42:19,159 --> 00:42:22,440
she's my friend and my neighbor and her daughter and

780
00:42:22,519 --> 00:42:27,079
Sadie were really good friends in elementary school for a

781
00:42:27,079 --> 00:42:29,119
couple of years, and then they went to the same

782
00:42:29,159 --> 00:42:32,280
middle school very briefly. She's at a different school. But

783
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,800
I've always been like, I've always really liked this mom

784
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,679
so and she's really into it like me. So she

785
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,039
judges every single time. Right. The first time I ever

786
00:42:42,079 --> 00:42:44,440
went I was we were like, oh my god, that's

787
00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:47,960
so I got to hang out. I just hung out

788
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,800
with her the whole day. And it's really sweet because

789
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,519
she said she was like, ever ever since you started judging,

790
00:42:54,559 --> 00:42:56,360
She's like, it's made it so much better for me

791
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,599
because it's like a she goes before you. I would

792
00:42:59,639 --> 00:43:02,159
just be like lonely the entire day, just sort of

793
00:43:02,199 --> 00:43:05,159
like on my computer, like reading my kindle, and she goes.

794
00:43:05,199 --> 00:43:07,119
Now it's like a fun it's like a look forward

795
00:43:07,159 --> 00:43:09,639
to it. My yeah, for sure. Yeah.

796
00:43:10,119 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 1: So was it like from right after school until late

797
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:14,519
in the evening on Friday.

798
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,559
Speaker 2: So normally these speech and debates competitions are only one day,

799
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:21,719
so you'll hear about it it's like on a Saturday.

800
00:43:22,119 --> 00:43:25,159
But this is the big one. This was the state qualifier,

801
00:43:26,039 --> 00:43:29,159
so all the kids were feeling pressured. There's a lot

802
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,320
more kids, you know that they want to qualify for

803
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,760
the state competition. So in Xander's category, there were twenty

804
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,440
seven kids entered. That's a lot, a lot. So like

805
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,000
there the impromptu, there were like the same like maybe

806
00:43:44,079 --> 00:43:47,360
even maybe thirty kids trying to do impromptu. They come

807
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,320
from all excuse me, high schools from around the area. Yes, yes,

808
00:43:52,880 --> 00:44:00,599
they come from a lot of different schools Valencia, a

809
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:05,480
Royal as far as a Royal, Grande, Shamanad, all the

810
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:11,400
all the mostly the valley, right because there's different leagues, right,

811
00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:15,400
but there's a ton of different schools that they come from.

812
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,400
This Taft where LB went. They have a really good team.

813
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,079
So it's the competition is pretty fierce. And these are

814
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,000
these are like brainiac kids.

815
00:44:24,079 --> 00:44:25,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course.

816
00:44:25,519 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 2: Like something that I would have never in a million

817
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,800
year's death, I would have been like nerd alert, you know,

818
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,400
no thanks, you know, but it's like they're there. They are,

819
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:39,440
they're super nerdy kids. But I love it because these

820
00:44:39,639 --> 00:44:43,199
it's and I don't I say nerds, because they're all

821
00:44:43,519 --> 00:44:47,199
pretty smart kids. They're very smart kids and good writers

822
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,800
and you know, but they're also like a lot of

823
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,559
like LGBT, like a lot of kids that like this

824
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,360
is a place where they can express themselves, you know.

825
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:57,079
Speaker 1: Nice.

826
00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So it's like it's just really fun. It's

827
00:45:00,519 --> 00:45:05,360
really fun to see kids from all different backgrounds. Attracts

828
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,440
a lot of you know, just kids that have are

829
00:45:09,559 --> 00:45:14,679
very driven. Put it that way. I mean, I would

830
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,960
say Xander's probably one of the more well rounded kids

831
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,840
because he's just into also into music and theater and well, anyway,

832
00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:26,000
my point is it's really fun, and you know, I

833
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,920
look forward to it. So Friday I did get to

834
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:36,440
judge around and Xander had his round, and then afterwards

835
00:45:36,639 --> 00:45:39,960
it's fun to like debrief. But so here's so the

836
00:45:40,159 --> 00:45:41,960
Saturday was the more fun day that I'm going to

837
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,480
tell you about. But like for my last little story,

838
00:45:46,519 --> 00:45:51,559
this was so annoying. Okay, so I'm getting ready to leave.

839
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:59,119
I've got Xander and I don't have to take home Tommy,

840
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:03,079
but I had agreed to take home another girl that's

841
00:46:03,079 --> 00:46:05,840
a friend of Xander's who doesn't live that far from us,

842
00:46:06,159 --> 00:46:09,440
So I'm totally planning to take those two homes. We're tired.

843
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,760
It's been a long day at school, then it's been

844
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,880
you know, a drive. Then it's been a whole evening.

845
00:46:16,199 --> 00:46:17,880
Speaker 1: It's now like eight o'clock, and then you got the

846
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:19,440
whole big day tomorrow.

847
00:46:19,599 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 2: Have the whole day the next day eight o'clock. It's

848
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,559
like eight o'clock at night, now, okay, because the things

849
00:46:25,599 --> 00:46:28,760
start didn't even start till like six. So then they

850
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,440
had the round. Then there's no award ceremony on Friday.

851
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,320
It's just one round. But now we're all gonna leave.

852
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:37,000
It's like eight o'clock at night. The the girl that

853
00:46:37,039 --> 00:46:39,320
we're with, I'm gonna give her a different name too.

854
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:45,960
Let's call her Mollie. Mollie I've she's great. But Mollie's like, hey,

855
00:46:48,079 --> 00:46:51,760
we have a problem. I'm like, what's the problem. She's

856
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:56,760
like this girl, let's call her Tina. She's like, uh,

857
00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:00,239
Tina doesn't have a ride home, and she's gonna She's

858
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,280
saying she's going to take the bus, but it's like

859
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:08,400
a three hour bus ride. And I was like, me,

860
00:47:09,199 --> 00:47:13,159
I ask somebody else. Now understand, there's really not a

861
00:47:13,159 --> 00:47:15,119
lot of parents who came to help.

862
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:19,039
Speaker 1: So wait, Tina's got a bus ride.

863
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,280
Speaker 2: She's ride Tina. I don't know. I've never seen this

864
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,960
girl in my life. She didn't ask me for a ride.

865
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,199
She and she's got she's like got a post on

866
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:32,639
her face, like she's already annoyed. I don't, like, right,

867
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,679
how did I get hurt? Like I'm the one who's

868
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:36,039
potentially giving you a ride?

869
00:47:36,119 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's very like she's very she's wearing she's got

870
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,159
like headphones around her neck, not wearing them, but like

871
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,679
not like she's has autism.

872
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,599
Speaker 2: And she's getting overwhelmed. No, just that kind of like

873
00:47:51,119 --> 00:47:54,920
kind of badass to cool, too cool. You know. She's

874
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,719
got like a backpack and her little headphones and she's

875
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:02,320
like walking away from everybody. So now, Mollie, she's like, Gena,

876
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,719
where are you going? I think Xander's mom will give

877
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,280
you a ride. So I'm like, she's like, can you

878
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:10,719
give her a ride? I go? Where does she live?

879
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:16,159
She's like, well, she kind of lives near school. I'm like,

880
00:48:16,639 --> 00:48:20,360
which is completely out of the way, Like when I

881
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,119
tell you, oh, out of the way.

882
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: God, does Tina go to your kids at school?

883
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,800
Speaker 2: Yes? She was, She's on their team. But I was like,

884
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,599
where's Tina's parents?

885
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:31,599
Speaker 1: Good question?

886
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,159
Speaker 2: Well I find out, Oh, they didn't even know she

887
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:38,639
was here. Oh my god, what the fuck? They don't

888
00:48:38,679 --> 00:48:42,280
know there was a competition, They had no idea. So

889
00:48:43,159 --> 00:48:46,920
do they not read emails? This is what I don't understand.

890
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,840
Do you not understand? Like, look, this it's not Tina's fault.

891
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:57,920
But also and maybe Tina's traumatized by having parents that

892
00:48:58,119 --> 00:49:01,199
just could not give a shit what she's up to. Yeah,

893
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,960
She's like, yeah, I wasn't even really supposed to be here.

894
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:10,039
I'm like, why not, You're on the freaking she was competing. Yeah,

895
00:49:10,079 --> 00:49:12,440
so okay.

896
00:49:12,199 --> 00:49:14,840
Speaker 1: And I'm sure she's a super bright girl.

897
00:49:15,159 --> 00:49:19,639
Speaker 2: Right. So at our school, speech and debate is a class,

898
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,559
so anybody can do it. It's not a club where,

899
00:49:23,599 --> 00:49:26,320
like you know, at some other schools, it's a zero period.

900
00:49:26,519 --> 00:49:29,199
You got to be committed, you got It's a time

901
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,440
where kid gets to school, right. But at our school,

902
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,199
some of the kids are very competitive, but some of

903
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,920
the kids don't care at all, and they're just wanting

904
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,199
to get it like an easy a right, which you know,

905
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:46,880
because it's kind of a participation grade. Right. Anyway, I'm like, okay,

906
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,679
of course, of course I'm going to take her home.

907
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:50,400
I'm like, no, she can't be on a bus for

908
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,360
three hours, it's already dark. Out of course, sure, I'll

909
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:57,079
give her a ride home. This girl does not speak

910
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:02,280
the entire way okay, so we're like, but I'm like,

911
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:06,599
she gave me her address, but she's acting very like

912
00:50:06,599 --> 00:50:12,960
like not bitchy to me, but like really sort of like, oh,

913
00:50:13,079 --> 00:50:15,880
I don't really like asking people for help, Like I'm fine,

914
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,119
I could have just taken the bus, but she's directing

915
00:50:18,119 --> 00:50:20,639
all of that at Mollie, not at me. She's not

916
00:50:20,679 --> 00:50:23,679
including me in any conversation. But you know me, I'm

917
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,480
just being very like, oh my gosh, girl, don't worry

918
00:50:26,519 --> 00:50:29,360
about it. I got you. Like, let's just you're not

919
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,880
taking a bus for three hours. It's not a big deal.

920
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,760
We have nowhere to be. It's fine, right, you know.

921
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,440
I was annoyed inside, but I was I was not.

922
00:50:37,679 --> 00:50:43,039
I was like, get in the car, you know. So

923
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:46,760
we're halfway home, it's really long and out of the way,

924
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:50,559
and then I hear Molly from the back seat Stephanie

925
00:50:51,039 --> 00:50:54,519
we have an issue, and I was like, oh my god,

926
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:59,559
what is it. She's like, Tina doesn't have her keys?

927
00:51:00,079 --> 00:51:04,840
Oh my god, wow, why do you? Now? Can you

928
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:09,360
throw off the fence? Like it's nine o'clock. It's nine

929
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:13,360
o'clock now at night. So I'm like, okay, well, are

930
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,320
your parents home right? Like why do you need your key?

931
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:22,599
You know they're at dinner. I go, okay, why don't

932
00:51:22,599 --> 00:51:25,000
I drop you off where you're Like, let's where are

933
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:25,519
they at dinner?

934
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 1: Huh?

935
00:51:26,079 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 2: Also in my mind, I'm like, they're at dinner at

936
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,480
nine o'clock. I'm already this whole thing is starting to

937
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,280
get really suspect. Yeah, So but I was like, should

938
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,480
I and she's like, no, I'll just just you can

939
00:51:37,519 --> 00:51:40,400
just drop me at my apartment. I'll get in, I'll

940
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,400
find a neighbor to let me in. So now I'm

941
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:43,880
of course picturing or why did.

942
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,559
Speaker 1: She call her mom or dad and say, hey, I'm

943
00:51:46,599 --> 00:51:49,440
on my way home. Can you guys it's nine o'clock parents?

944
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:50,519
What time you guys going to be home?

945
00:51:50,519 --> 00:51:53,280
Speaker 2: It's not really communicating with me. And when I say

946
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,599
I don't really feel comfortable just dropping you in front

947
00:51:55,639 --> 00:51:58,360
of your apartment building and like having you wait for

948
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,000
somebody to leave to let you in, She's like, I

949
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,440
think my front doors probably open to my apartment, so

950
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,920
I just need to get in the building, so don't worry.

951
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:10,159
And I was like at first, I'm like, but I

952
00:52:10,199 --> 00:52:13,039
am worried, Like I don't want to do that. Can

953
00:52:13,079 --> 00:52:15,440
you call your mom or your dad and find like,

954
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,760
you know, no, I can't, Okay, can I drop you

955
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,039
off at the restaurant? It's fine, it's fine, it's fine,

956
00:52:21,039 --> 00:52:22,719
it's fine. And finally I was like fuck it, then

957
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:23,280
it's fine.

958
00:52:23,519 --> 00:52:24,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, what what.

959
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 2: Am I going to do?

960
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,280
Speaker 1: Take her to the fire.

961
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,719
Speaker 2: Exactly. So I was like, okay, I go, okay, yeah,

962
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:35,760
I'm not going to keep arguing with that. So we

963
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,079
get to where her apartment building is and I let

964
00:52:38,079 --> 00:52:42,400
her out and like obviously she got in yeah because

965
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:46,000
she was So there's a part too. She showed up

966
00:52:46,039 --> 00:52:48,800
the next day, oh, and I was it was getting

967
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,159
hinted that I pick her up in the morning, and

968
00:52:51,199 --> 00:52:53,840
I was like, oh, hell, do the fucking no, Oh no,

969
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,199
I have already have a long thing in the morning.

970
00:52:56,559 --> 00:52:59,320
So I was when they were I heard them saying that,

971
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:03,960
and I just comely ignored it. Oh okay, I well,

972
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,039
they didn't ask me, but they were sort of like

973
00:53:06,079 --> 00:53:07,960
I could hear him kind of discussing it. Like the

974
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:09,920
girl like Molly was like, but do you have a

975
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,559
ride in the morning, and she's like no, And I

976
00:53:12,639 --> 00:53:14,480
just didn't say anything. Yeah, and I let her out

977
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:20,320
and anyway, okay, So that was Friday. Then I found
