Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm glad I didn't. I'm going to
send them to their home instead of their house out
there because there was so much food. And you know,
Adam with the food, like he's packing like salmon collars
into my suitcase. And salmon collars are these things they
sell in Washington only, which you're delicious. It's like the
fatty part of the salmon and it's so good. But uh,
He's like you know, doesn't want anything to go to

Speaker 4: But.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get rid of it is sorry. And so

Speaker 1: Phil? Phil went on a fucking yacht, sorry, on a
yacht over with his stepdad Rob, where Rob lives on
a boat.
Speaker 3: Rob kept it for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rob's is a surrogate daddy, so he goes there
when we're out of town, which is rare.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we stayed with them in their house. So anyway,
they they're leaving early. So we decide to go on
an adventure and go to Lateral Falls, Portland. And it
was a beautiful drive from where you were. Yeah, everything's
a drive.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is he the one that thought of this.
Speaker 1: They well, they're that family that gets up and goes,
you know, like I'm still waking up and you wake
up and they get the bacon and they're already good morning.
They get the coffee going. Like I said, they're very hospitable,
and they're you know, like especially the dad. The dad's
the one that likes to grill the steaks and cook
like you take these like Jimmy like takes pride and
cooking and and I love that he works hard. He's
a hard working guy and he deserves it. So he
deserves his time off. And he likes to entertain, which
I appreciate. And uh so they they they leave. We
they tell us where to go.
Speaker 3: There's like screen and goers though.
Speaker 1: I know there's this great hike with waterfalls. It's beautiful,
you guys should go check it out. So they tell
us how to get there. Of course GPS doesn't. It's in,
it's out, it's in, it's out. It's like where you are, like,
you know, it's it's no network. And next thing you know,
you're going in the wrong direction. And then Adam and
I are arguing the whole way. Are you said to
go left? You didn't tell me anyway? But no, we
had a nice time. We had a great morning. And
you know what's so funny is after so the samples,
the dad is mister Sample is, his mom is Armenian,
and his father is like, you know, was raised on
a ranch, you know, and the wife is Japanese, like
Adam says, little Cami is half Japanese in all heart.
She's so cute because she her and Adam are are
simpatico that little Cama, Like she loves the deviled eggs.
She's nice to her dad. And the funniest thing was
one of my favorite movies, mister Corolla is Master and Commander.
Have you seen it. Adam like threw his fork down,
got up, walked around the table, hugged her because it's
his favorite movie, Master and Commander. It's the movie with
Russell Crowe on a ship, right, yeah, Russell Crowe, Jude Law. Yeah,
It's like it's like a dude's movie, Like they're in
a storm, you know, in batting down the hatches and
kind of a survival kind of Master and Commander, and
Adam loves that movie. So those two, yeah, there it is.
Speaker 3: What's wrong with this kid?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Those two they read and read. They're
two voracious readers, both with them, especially the oldest one.
She reminds me a lot of LB. She's so sweet
and she loves to read and she's just so all right.
So first of all, they mister Sample, uh he decides
that he well, he doesn't decide. He offers, you guys
want to go on the whitewater rafting again like we
did last year. Sunny and I both at the same
time say no, Adam gonna tell you both at the
same time say hell yes. So he we said, all right, well,
well all we're all gonna go. Time comes and Sonny
and I don't want to go, and uh they all
everybody else wants to go. And then Sonny and I
are like, do we have to go? And then Adam
came up like a day after we got there, and
mister Sample already bought the tickets.
Speaker 3: And good white water rafting tickets.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he bought him for everybody for all of us
and all eight of us and he I said to
missus Sample, I said, is there any no way that
we can like bow two of us bow out? And
she asked him and he said, well you can, but
you know, you just don't get your money back. But
that's fine, like you know, and uh, we're like Dad,
Dad's gonna make us go. Adam's gonna make us go
because he's not gonna want to waste two tickets and
blah blah blah because it's okay, it's expensive. And then
Adam got to town and uh he next morning we
wake up and I say to him, Sonny and I
really don't really want to go today to the White
like Sonny and I have been dreading it. And actually Taleene,
the oldest sister, she doesn't want to go either. The
elb want. She doesn't really want to go either. And
and I was like, it's fine, you guys don't have
to go, I said, Billy, He's like, hey, I'm paying
for the I want to give mister Sample money. I
I won't have it any other way. I want to
give them money for all eight tickets. And I said,
but they don't refund too. They won't refund our tickets.
He said that's fine. I was like, oh thank god.
So they I'll go white water rafting and me, Sonny
and Tolleen A like get off scot free. I mean
we went first. We went hiking in caves first before
the white water rafting, so we went on that and
then we said goodbye and took our two separate Laurental cars.
They went wide water rafting.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 1: I went and helped to Natalia get dressed in her
wet suit because that's a huge pain in the ass.
And she freaks out when she's trying to put on
her you know, like when anything is tight on her.
She like, you know, remember I told you she got
stuck in the back of my Tesla when I first
got it in Betwens seats and she got freaking like
she So I knew she'd be I knew she would
need help, and Adam is useless, and I don't want
to make missus sample have to do it, so I
stayed with her and got her dress, and of course
she's free. She's crying, she can't doesn't feel good. I
want to get it off of me, but I I'm like,
but you can't get it off you. You have to
wear a wetsuit. You have to, but it's so tight.
I'm like, but you have to if you.
Speaker 3: Have chest is feeling tight right hearing about.
Speaker 1: It or you know, because they like they don't like
pull the straps.
Speaker 4: Ever since my weird Ninja experience.
Speaker 3: I thought about her because I thought, go back to.
Speaker 4: Magic Mountain, which I'll tell you about in a few minutes.
It was super fun, nothing really to tell. But I
can't go on that ride. I start getting like a hurt,
like your chest, like somebody sitting on your chest. Well,
like just thinking about that, having had that feeling is
giving me a bad feeling.
Speaker 1: Yes, well I'll keep going. Then, So they put the
life vest on her and they can you know, and
they're they're pulling and they're strapping in there, put the
helmet and they're fixing it, and she's just like And
Adam has a very calming effect, and I said, He's.
Speaker 3: Like, why is she crying?
Speaker 1: What's the matter? And he comes over and he talks
to her and he says, like Daddy, when he goes
in the race car, I have to be I feel
the same way. I know how you feel.
Speaker 4: Worst feeling the worst feeling because by the way, he's
car have you been in a RASUW you did it? Yes?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, and I freaked the fuck out.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They strap your ass in.
Speaker 4: You're strapped and you're in and the helmet is on
you and clipped down and you're just like, oh my god,
I think I can't breathe.
Speaker 1: And when you're a strapped to the seat, you cannot
move out of the seat. Adam is saying to her, like,
I know how it feels. I've been in there for
two hours. I'm strapped in there.
Speaker 3: For two hours.
Speaker 1: And he's like, tell you remember last year you felt
this way. But remember after like we got out and
we got out into the world and got onto the
they take you on a bus up to the top
of the falls. He's like, you remember how much fun
you had? And she's like next, she was like totally calm,
Like he has this like he's like a little Buddha,
him and Cammy. I'm telling you those two, so hey.
Speaker 3: I think of when I think Adam Carolla just.
Speaker 1: Buddha, Buddha no, right, because that's what they said to
him too. That's what Molly, Jimmy's wife said to him,
or somebody said to him about the oscars, like it's
good that you were there because you have this calming
effect with Jimmy. Anyway, then so long Suckers, Sonny, me
and Tolleen got in the car, went home, drove home.
It took us an hour to get back to the cabin.
But we were so happy, like so happy. And then
Jack samples, like, meet us at six point thirty, you drive.
Speaker 3: An hour out there to help her put her wet
seat on.
Speaker 1: No, we went to the caves. From the caves, got it.
Then we went the whitewater was right down black. So
then you came came back. What you guys do? I
cleaned and then I mean, I you know, they're dishwasher
was broken. I wanted to make the place look nice
for when they walked in. I want, you know, they're
cooking and cleaning, and so I clean and then I
relaxed and read a magazine and answered it couldn't get
any reception, so I couldn't like I could answer email.
Nothing was going out. Everything's stuck in that outbox. I
hate that anyway. But then and then we went out
to dinner. So then the day we leave, which was
yesterday morning, the samples leave early. They tell us there's
a beautiful waterfalls, like forty five minutes on the way
to the Portland Airport. You're gonna love it. It's an
easy hike. You go up, you go, it's a loop.
You just go all the way up and then you go.
You see the waterfalls and you come all the way down,
and it was beautiful. Except Natalia is one of those
like you know, she's constantly like, let's get out and
like enjoy the day, like woo. She's like my mom,
like let's go go go, and she wants to, you know,
love life and go outside and picnic and blah blah blah,
and me and Sonny are like bye, you and Adam
can go do that shit, Sonny and we want to
go home and be left alone. Sonny's watching the flash
and what disposition now he's got He's got his mama.
Uh so then so she's the whole time like let's go,
go go, And then we get there in a half
hour into the hike, she's like, I'm done, done, done,
Can we go back. We're like, you don't go back.
You go all the way around, like do you ever
you don't see you're not seeing people walking back, you know,
next to us, like going back down the hill. They're
going up and they go around, they go down, and
it's like it's like a twenty two minute hike or whatever.
But it's beautiful, beautiful, And we're talking, Adam and I
are talking, and she does then she starts getting cranky,
like could you not talk about pod carting, casting, whatever
you guys talk about? Can you not talk about adults?
Can we talk about So he's like, all right, let's
talk about the bridge you and I jumped off of yesterday.
And they jumped off a bridge when they went white
water rafting. So he's like, I tell you, don't you
think that lady that takes the have a picture of
people that they do the thing where they they jump
off the bridge and like a magic mounta where you
go down the roller coaster and they take your picture
and then you can go buy it.
Speaker 3: You know, what do you mean jump off a bridge?
So they went bungee jumping.
Speaker 1: There is one point of there's out of the three
hour whitewater rafting excursion, they pull over a couple times
they have a snack, you know, and then you pull over.
Then there's one time where they pull over underneath a
bridge and it's deep enough where if people want, they
can go up to the bridge and jump. We have
a photographered lady that stays there and she takes your
picture and you can buy it at the shop when
you're done. And and n Italian Cammi did it last year
and looking at the two, I mean, it's like a
I don't know how many feet up it's it's I
don't know, it's like a twenty story jump. It's pretty high. Wow,
it's high. It's very high, and the water is forty
degrees and it's rushing, so not only do you have
to jump and swim to the boat, but yeah jump
into the freezing.
Speaker 3: That sounds really dangerous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's deep and they let him. Kids do
it all the time, and last last year an Italian
Cammi did it. And to look at those little two,
they're up on top of the bridge. They look like
little teeny tiny, like five year old stick figures up there,
and all the adult most adults don't even do it,
but the kids, like teenagers, and everybody's like, wow, look
at those two. So this year Adam's like, I'm jumping,
not only am I jumping, but I'm gonna do a flip.
And she's like, now, Daddy, you're not gonna do a flip.
You're not allowed. You're not allowed. He's joking, but so
he went up and jumped. So then he's now on
the hike and she's like he's like talking. He's like,
all right, let's talk about what you want to talk about.
Remember when we jumped yesterday. Don't you think the lady
should not be standing where she There's no reason for
her to stand there because then she only gets the
like from your forehead up, like she's not getting a
good shot of you. She could easily stand ten feet
back and get a nice wide shot of you jumping.
But there's no reason for her to be standing where she.
Speaker 3: I get what?
Speaker 1: And then she's like, all right, bye, I'm gonna go
catch up with So Sonny is in front and he's
chugging along the trail in the front of us. This
trail is just a trail, right, and it's like it's
three it's two and a half people wide, is what
it is. So it's not a huge long white but
it's slippery. It's because it's muddy and it's wet. So
we get to the waterfalls. Now we're gonna make our
way back down. Okay. So she gets bored of us,
and she catches Sonny keeps going, and she keeps yelling
for him, Sonny, wait, wait for us, Wait, don't keep
going ahead, so he'd stop, wait, catch up, stop, wait,
catch up. Finally she goes, I'm going off with Sunny.
And then I thought we were close to the end
where we parked the cars. And I said all right,
and Adam said, just go. You guys could just go,
just meet us at the bottom, meet us at the bottom,
and we are not near the bottom. And I said no, no, no, no.
I said, wait, wait, wait, wait, you guys, if you're
going to run off, I said, the two of you
stick together. There's so many people and they're so nice.
Everybody's sweet. Every Portland's nice, and even the too. I mean,
everybody's very nice. I mean, I'm sure there could be
some pervert in the bushes, but for the most part,
there's families everywhere. So you guys stick together, don't Sonny,
I said, Sonny, don't run off without your sister. You
always need to be because he likes to run. I said,
you stick with her, and I said, and also kind
of stick with us, like, don't go too far ahead.
So but I don't think he heard me say that.
He heard Adam say, stick together, go ahead. Meet at
the bottom. And they started to run, and I said,
but don't go too far wait and stick with us.
Don't get so far ahead. I don't know where we're
at right now. So they run. They take off. Now,
Adam and I are talking to my I'm complaining about
the bridge thing. And a few minutes later she catches up.
Now she's with us, and she's like, oh, she's like,
Sonny ran off, blah blah blah, I'm tired. Now she's
now she's in the complaining moment, like can we go?
I'm tired, I'm hungry, I'm tired a good Sonny, doesn't
you guys are boring? Sonny ran off blah blah blah blah.
She's also got like Cammy withdrawal. I think at this
point because she just left her best friend she's been
with for five days and so so then I'm like,
where is Sonny? And she keeps doing this thing throughout.
Speaker 3: The whole hike.
Speaker 1: She's going Sonny and Adams keep going like Natalia, stop
yelling for Sonny. People are trying to enjoy themselves. They
don't want to hear you. By the way, it sounds
like you're saying mommy because somebody said somebody lost looking
for their mom. And she's like, no, no, that's our
daughter yelling for her brother named Sonny. Oh it sounds
like mommy. So okay, like stop, you're alerting people. And
Adam's always like relax, relax. So she's like yelling. First,
now I'm going, well, wait, where did how far did
he go? And I go I thought the parking lot
was coming up, and I keep Now I'm asking people
do you know how much further? And they're like you
got a little ways to go? And now I'm like,
all right, well where's Sonny? I don't why would son
he keep going? Like, don't you think he's also a
little bit of a chicken shit? I would think he
would like, you know, slow his roll a little bit
and not go off by himself, by himself on a
trail like yeah, there's people, but it's not crass on Disneyland.
Yeah you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, after I find my son, So what happens?
Speaker 4: So you're so you're you're starting to So.
Speaker 1: Now I'm a little concerned, and she's yet, now I'm
going Sunday, Sunday, And I said, why would I don't
want to like alert and Italian and she's a when
you're on a trail, you can't really hear what the
other you know what I mean. So I'm going, why
would he? Like, wait, like, I can't believe he went
this far without us, And he's like, he's fine, he's
going to be at the bottom. He's going to be
at the bottom. Well, how does he know where to go?
And he goes, there's only one way to go, it's down,
and then there's just a trail and everybody around here
is very nice. It's fine, he's gonna be at the bottom.
And so I'm telling the Italian to Talian son. She goes, Mommy,
I'm getting worried. Now I'm worried. Now I'm starting to worry,
like where where is he? Where is he? And she
starts helping dying.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, this would be albe.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Now she's having a nervous breakdown. She
starts crying. Now she's made a me nervese. I'm like,
he's fine, he's fine, he's fine. Then we get to
a fork in the road. Oh no, uh huh, and
it says loop trail this way, and then nothing this way,
and we're like, what's the loop trail and he's like,
it's the loop right, and I go, I guess I
don't know how many trails. We've never done this trail before.
We didn't look at it on a map. We just
pulled up, parked, got out, and maybe there's other trails.
How do I We don't know, So do we go
this way? And he goes, no, we don't want the
loop trail. We want to go to the right, so
we keep going to the right. He's gonna he's gonna
be down by the water anyway, so stop yelling for
him because and I'm like, why is there water by
the parking lot? I don't know why Adam kept saying that,
But I'm like, I don't think there's gonna be water.
I don't hear water. And he's like, he's like, he's fine,
let's go to the right. So we go to the
right and we don't see anybody, and now we're going
away down and I'm like, Adam, this is not right.
And now I'm getting nervous. Now in Natalia is full
on hysterical.
Speaker 3: My chest is hurting. Where is he? Where is he?
We're lost? How come he's not lost?
Speaker 1: Like, how do we know he's not lost? He could
have slipped and fell down a mountain. She's like, oh
my god. And I's like, he's okay, He's okay. And
then he's like, yeah, this isn't right. And we got
to a complete dead end. So he turned around, went back,
and he goes. And then we asked somebody goes to
get back down. They said, yeah, no, you want to
go to the loop. You want that way. And he's like, Now,
Sonny's not. Sonny's smart. We're the dumb ones. We went
the wrong way. Sonny's smart. He knows he'll ask if
he gets stuck, he'll ask. And I'm going like, and
Natalia's crying. She's like and then she touches something and
all of a sudden, like welts start. She gets alert,
some kind of allergic reaction to her hand. I'm like,
this is just getting worse. This is what I was
gonna say the beginning of the morning. So the samples,
this is what I was telling you about how he
is and she's Japanese. Right. They are the sweetest, nicest family. Like,
they're so polite to each other because the daughters are
super they're like two lbie's, you know, they're super sweet
and super polite, and they're just like yes, my love,
and they talk qui. You know, they talk blah blah blah.
The dad is just like Adam though, he's like, tough
en up, you're fine, blah blah blah blah blah. You know,
but he's just like, you know, just a dude, normal guy.
And but they're so sweet. So I said, let's all
start out the day after we on our four on
our trip with just the four of us to the falls.
Let's be like the samples and be nice to each other.
And they're like yeah, okay, and so He's like yeah,
and Adam's like yeah, okay, all right, so we're all
gonna be nice and yes, my love, can you pass
me water? Sure? I'm passing the water. Then it lasted
like a half an hour.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would laugh so hard if John talked to
me like that.
Speaker 1: Until like, they don't talk to each other. They talk
to the kids like that. Oh, they're nice to each other,
but they like he's he's you would love jad Jack
Sample has got a great sense of humor, and he
jokes with her all the time. He tells her to
it tough enough, like you're too nice all the time
because she's Japanese. It's her way, you know. And he's like,
you know, baby, you don't have to be nice to
find everybody, you know. Yeah, so she uh so there.
So we're trying to be like the Samples. But now
it's like we're arguing with each other. So she tells
things start to weld up, and now she's like, no,
like this trip is just getting worse and worse. We're
mean to each other. She's got a rash. Sunny's lost.
I'm picturing now, I'm picturing we're gonna have He was
wearing a bright blue long sleeve Nike shirt and I'm thinking,
good thing he's got that shirt on, because now when
the search party goes to look for him, you know.
Speaker 4: At this point, had you made a Facebook post that
said that Sunny has been kidnapped into sex trafficking.
Speaker 1: I'm just getting there. It's getting there, it's coming. So
I'm like, oh my god. Now I'm kind of nervous.
I'm like, Adam, where is how do we know we
didn't go off another trail? Like, how do we know
he went through right direction? And so so.
Speaker 4: Anyway he made at this point, I would be comforting.
I would be like, okay, he at some point he
would have just asked, see what he would have seen
somebody and just said which way is down?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: But Adam is doing his deductive reasoning in his head,
and he's going, there's there's four possible he could have
gotten abducted, highly highly unless you're in the IKEA living
room area, right, highly impossible. Chances are almost noneall chances.
But two, he went now now, and now you're left
with him going in the wrong direction. However, there weren't
that many. There was that only that one juncture there was.
Why would Sonny's not in Sunny's not gonna go off
into the bushes and you know, make his own trail? Okay,
So that's out. So now you're left with him basically
going down and waiting for us at the bottom of
the mountain, like you said, and I said, but but
why it's like quiet, like, well, I don't think Sonny.
I would think Sonny would stop and wait or come
back or come back or keep going. Yeah, but then
I'm thinking, but what if he starts going back the
other way? And then what if he does go on?
I don't know. It's just like he's gonna get lost.
And I'm thinking search party, Like somebody they're gonna get
me the helicopter. Daddy's gonna have to pay for it
and they're gonna have to do a search party for it.
Jet Yes, med Jet, thank you, call back to one
of our sponsors.
Speaker 3: And so now.
Speaker 1: Right she's hysterically crying with welts on her hand, and
I'm like, she's like, it's hurts, it hurts. I'm like it,
it's fine, it's fine. I'm thinking it's gonna start to
swell up and then her our throat's gonna start to
close up.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: And I'm going we're gonna miss the flight. That was
like the last thing she kept saying, We're gonna miss
our flight. We're gonna miss our flight because we're gonna
be looking for Sonny and I want to know where
he is, Mommy, Why can't we hear him? Why doesn't
he answer us? Why doesn't he answer us? It was
this way for what's fine.
Speaker 3: Did she ever?
Speaker 1: Everybody needs to stop stopes he he was like laughing,
like Natalia stop, He's like, she's he's fine, he's fine.
He's at the bottom, like we said, that's yes, he's fine,
he's fine. And uh and he's like and Natalia, stop
screaming for him, because you're ruining it for other people
are trying to enjoy nature. And we passed. This is
when five minutes before we get to the bottom, we
pass a group of family like that, pulled over under
a tree. I said, because I'm starting to ask people,
have you seen this little boy? And then when I
do that, and starts and and she's to the point
where she's doing the ugly cry loud and doesn't give
a fuck who hears her, sees her because she and
she's usually like embarrassing frankel ya, he's got.
Speaker 2: No zero to give, like she's usually yes, she had
a few like usually like I don't want to draw
attention to me, like like you know, like that in
that way she don't don't care.
Speaker 1: I go to tell you, she.
Speaker 3: Goes, I don't care. Where's my brother?
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, all right, relax, now, come on, relax,
And I say to this group of family, did you
see a little boy with the blue shirt, long sleeves.
I said yeah, and they go, yeah, he just ran
by a little like not more than five minutes ago.
And I said okay. And I said the one guy
goes he was on a mission, that little dude. And
I was like, okay. So now Sonny has this little
macho thing sometimes where he feels like he has to
prove to everybody that he can be independent, even though
he can't fucking brush his teeth or forget his toothbrush
or plug in his iPad at the end of the night.
But so then we start, I start going to Lexander
A Xander I forgot about.
Speaker 3: So we have like the same kids.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're like yes, right. So then we get to
the we get to the bottom. She's crying and Adam's ahead.
Adam goes ahead of us, and at the bottom, now
there's a highway now spits us out by a highway,
not where the parking lot, not to where I thought
it was gonna take us. But and then I was
like huh, and she's like, where are we? And I
was like, gets to relax. Then she starts crying out
loud again all over. Adam goes, no, to this way
is the parking lot. But why isn't he waiting here?
I said, because we're on a highway. He's not gonna
sit on the side of a highway. He sees the
parking lots over there. He's probably walked over to where
the parking lot is. There's a lot of people over
there's picnic tables. He's probably over there. And as we're.
Speaker 3: Walking, that's where all the kidnappers are.
Speaker 1: There's the guy in the white man. As we're walking,
I see this little blue long sleeve boy come running
up the stairs up to the sidewalk, and he's like
he just finished it. But he went in a different
like at the end went to the I don't know.
He went a different little direction and went up and
saw Adam, and he saw Dad and then he and
then we saw I see I said, Natalie, I see him,
I see him. Stop crying. I see him. And she couldn't.
Then she can't control her. I like you do, he said, yeah,
She's like where And I go, I can see him,
trust me, And she's like, is it? She's like, and
I go, don't even talk to him because I was
mad because I had a walking stick. I go, I'm
gonna beat him with this stick, and I said, don't
even talk. I said so, and then I saw him
and he was he was going to cross the street,
but cars were coming because we.
Speaker 3: Just sat title for this show. He said stop and
beat him with a stick.
Speaker 1: Beat him. I said, stop, don't don't cross, and then
he's and then I said, and then I and then
he crosses, and I say, I don't even want to
talk to you. And I kept holding us, had my
arm around the tie, and I kept walking and he
and uh and uh. He was walking behind us, and
I think he was a little nervous, because I think
he got he was nervous, he said. At first he
said he got nervous because he didn't know where. I said,
later on, I said, did you not know where? How
come you were just running off by yourself? And did
you not know we weren't like right behind you? And
he said, in the very beginning I first saw him.
He said, he w a little nervous because he didn't
see us. And he ended the hike and didn't know
if he should go to the car, if he should
stay there or what. And anyway, he does the little
lip quiver and his eye starts to well up in tears,
and I said, do you know why she's crying? Take
a guess, and he's like, I said, don't talk, don't
even talk. And then a was like, don't make him
feel worse how he feels about all right, I go,
but he needs to learn his lesson. He can't do that.
We get in the car and I'm talking like he's
not there. I go, he is not allowed to do that.
You can't just run off without even though we said
go ahead, but we did say stick with your sister,
which you didn't clearly. And the other thing, you didn't
wait for us. You just kept going. You just kept
running ahead of us. And that's not okay in a
forest where you don't know where you are. This is
you know, there's people everywhere, but that doesn't matter one bit.
That's not the point. You cannot do that. That's you're
not allowed to do that. And then Adam was like,
why I do agree with mommy. That's she's right, you're
not you shouldn't know. Yeah, and then he's like his
tears are rolling down his face and he's like, I
feel nauseous. And I said you do. And he's like, yeah,
do we have any water? He goes, I feel like
I'm gonna throw up. I said why, and he goes,
because they've been running so much. That's why he feels nauchious.
He felt nauseous right like you run track. He didn't
feel nauseous because he was running. He felt nauseous because
he was fucking scared out of his wits, because he's
a scaredy cat. And that place was it was a
little intimidating if you're by yourself. If I was by myself,
I'd be like and I ran off, I would be like,
where is everybody? You know? I mean it, you know,
there's people everywhere. But still it was just, you know,
not a good situation. But it was. And then it
was quiet in the car and I was mad at him,
and and then Adam goes, well, everybody, I guess the
samp try and be like the samples lasted us no
more than about an hour and forty minutes.
Speaker 3: I would be like a record for our family too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it was. And then he's like, listen and
now we have a funny story to tell. Oh yeah,
real funny. So but it wasn't all in all, it
was a good trip. It was a good trip except
for Sonny.
Speaker 4: I know that feeling where you're like, okay, I'm sure
everything's fine.
Speaker 3: But I would have been panicked too.
Speaker 4: When my stomach would I would have been, of course
imagining the worst, like, oh my god, I think one
can't find him.
Speaker 3: We're gonna have to.
Speaker 1: I thought maybe he would have slipped because he's he
doesn't have a good balance and there are parts of
the trail gets narrow and it's slippery because it's so muddy,
and the shoes he had was was kind of slippery.
They weren't good hiking shoes. So I thought, oh, what
if he slipped and fell? And Adam starts laughing, He's like,
what fall into?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: The weeds on the side of the mountain, Like there's
it wasn't a cliff where he could slip and fall
off a cliff. There was like the side of a
mountain where he would have had to like fall into
a bunch of you know, tall grass and trees. So
but I just didn't lie. I don't know. This was
an awful feeling, and Natalia crying.
Speaker 3: And how long did it take her to get over it?
She bounces back kind of.
Speaker 1: She bounced. Yes. As soon as I said I can
see him, she she did the thing and then she stopped,
and then she didn't want She didn't talk to him either.
She was mad at him. She was pissed.
Speaker 3: She's like that, you ruined my.
Speaker 1: Hike too, I go, No, to be fair, your hike
was already room before he took off, because you were
pissed off at us for talking about podcasting. So so there.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's a crazy story.
Speaker 1: I know, I know. I did think we were going
to have to go get a park ranger and have
you know, branch out and go in two to three
different directions and have them tell us, well, there's only
one trail, Like I just didn't even want to get
to that point.
Speaker 4: One time, years ago, I was just at the park
and the kids were young enough where it was definitely
a judgment call whether to I was taking one of
them to the bathroom and the other one I was
taking Sadie and needed to go to the bathroom, which
was like not far from the plague the playground at
the park, but like just far enough that you couldn't
really see the playground anymore.
Speaker 3: And I think the kids were.
Speaker 4: Like five, and it was just that border line where
you're like, you know where Xander was like I just
want to stay here, and like I don't want to
come with you to the bathroom and go wait in
line for the bathroom.
Speaker 3: I'm playing, right, I'm fine, leave me alone. Yeah. So
I was like, all right, all right, I'll be right back.
Speaker 4: There's a bunch of kids and parents around, and it
was fine, you know, but you still just have that like, okay,
I'm walking leaving my five year old and I am
walking out of sight, which in my mind seemed like
very paranoid of me to even be worried about that.
Speaker 3: It's like, am Sadie.
Speaker 4: But then it takes a while because the line was
really long because there's just one one. It's one little stall,
you know. It's not like some parks that have a
bunch of anyway. So it's one at a time where wait,
we have to wait in line. It's it takes a while,
and now I'm like, well, I can't go. I can't
leave the line. I don't want to leave her in
line for the bathroom by herself. I also don't want
to do that. I can't drag her out of line
and go back.
Speaker 3: Because she has to pee.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I stay with her. I'm like, you know,
Xander's fine, I stay with her. She finally peas. Then
we go back.
Speaker 3: I can't. I don't see him, and I had that
same thing where I was like, oh my god. Look
and of course I'm like, oh my god.
Speaker 4: And then the story when I have to report to
the police that I lost my kid is I'm going
to have to say I let well, I left him
here plan by himself, unattended in the park, and I
mean I was freaking out, you know, for like it
felt like an hour. I know, it was like ninety
seconds of not being able to you know. And then
I look around, and then of course I see the
red T shirt and I was like, oh, no, mine,
there is but that feeling just even when you just
can't find them for a minute.
Speaker 1: Last for a long time, I know, I'm telling you,
Like it seemed like forever until we saw him, I'm like,
I'm a fuck. I can't. Like when I hit him
with the stick, I didn't, but since I saw him
a little lip quivering as I will, holding up. But
it was fine. We had fun.
Speaker 3: Our kids are still like babies. I know, the I
don't know.
Speaker 4: It goes back and forth for me, this age this
you know, nine and a half for tween years or eleven,
but that there's still babies, Like there's still babies. I
mean even Lbie is twelve, but she's still still she's
so innocent, right, She's just so she's just a kid
in some ways, And I just just like what, I
still feel very protective of all the kids.
Speaker 3: I don't want to be overprotective.
Speaker 4: So it's like you have that battle in your mind
where you're like, Okay, they're fine, they're smart people. They
should be able to maneuver a trail packed with hikers
and just meet us at the bottom. At the same time,
I would have felt way more comfortable, like you, if
the twins.
Speaker 1: Were together, right, if they were together, right, But the
fact that yeah, yeah, like we went the wrong direction, right,
and yeah when pan Adam was like he's smarter than us,
he went the right way, because we were like, well
if he went that way, well, if he went that way,
he saw that there was a dead end, turn around,
went back the same way we did. I go, but
that trail was empty, there was no people, and what
if there was. I mean, that's like all the stuff
I was thinking. And he said he almost got lost.
He said, because, he said, because it came to that
point where there's the trail loop thing. But I just
asked somebody and they said, oh, yeah, you just go
that way and goes down and uh.
Speaker 3: Wow, smart kid, Wow, smart cookie.
Speaker 1: I gotta take my t shirt off because I'm hot.
Speaker 3: Oh go ahead, aren't you hot?
Speaker 4: Strip Not really, I don't think I'm wearing anything under
this sweatshirt.
Speaker 1: This tank tap is so thick, it's.
Speaker 3: Like it's like a bombus sock.
Speaker 1: But a take.
Speaker 3: So Hi Brandon, Hello, how's it going?
Speaker 4: It's going.
Speaker 3: That's a big a plaint about how's your car?
Speaker 4: Oh, it's all fixed.
Speaker 3: Fixed up, and it looks better than I did before. Actually, nice,
very nice. So my kids are still in school.
Speaker 1: They're still in school.
Speaker 3: Yeah, isn't that insane?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're lot, I mean, so endless.
Speaker 3: We're so done. Mentally we are out of school.
Speaker 4: But physically when is their last day? It was painful
to wake them up this morning. I know last day
is Thursday and this week of this week. Yes, So
when you're listening to this, they're still They're in their
second day of the week in school, and I wanted
to read you something that I thought you would appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, more teacher appreciation, not an appreciating going.
Speaker 4: On now I understand. Okay, this is really not that bad.
But basically, this is a letter to the third grade parents.
Next week is our last week of school. We can't
believe it's here already. Students have worked so hard all
year long, and now it's time to enjoy a well
deserved break sort of, while taking time to relax and
be with family this summer. It is also important to
continue good reading habits in order to maintain their level.
Students should find time to read and then in all
caps every day they can read nonfiction fiction, comic books, magazines,
et cetera. Every year, kids reading levels drop over the
summer anywhere from one to three levels. This then means
that they spend the first six to eight weeks of
school making up this summer loss. This is a tremendous
amount of time that doesn't need to be lost. We
recommend that you really work to set goals for their
reading the summer. We have spent copious amounts of time
getting them on their quote just right. Independent level research
and experience has shown us that the more time they
spend on books they can fully comprehend, the more progress
they will make. So we're including a list of leveled
book recommendations to help you with book selection this summer.
We're also including a summer reading plan that increases in
minutes as the summer goes on. No pressure to use
this plan except pressure. We just thought we would share
it in case you find this helpful. If your child
is unmotivated, uh, thank you, yes, both of mine are.
One thing you can try is offering up an incentive
at the end of the week if they meet their goals.
A small prize might help them stay motivated. Some things
you might do special time with mom or dad, cupcake,
trip to the library.
Speaker 1: Every day, my favor time.
Speaker 4: Like what do you think we're doing? You really think
they're going to be like, oh, really, a cupcake.
Speaker 3: Bitch. You're taking me to froyo every day.
Speaker 4: It's summertime, spending time own us at a trip to
the library.
Speaker 3: Is that right?
Speaker 4: If you're good, I'll take you to the library. I
would bribe them to go to the library. It takes
a cupcake to get them to go.
Speaker 3: To the library. I know, where's my list of bribes
to get the library? Trip to the park.
Speaker 4: Okay, now you're smoking cracks, right, Really, a trip to
the park is going to motivate my kids. I'll take
it to the box twenty seventeen, and the kids are
not three.
Speaker 1: I know, nobody wants to push me on swing.
Speaker 4: They're gonna look at me like I'm high. They're going
to be like parks, what are you talking about? Uh,
I'll read a book to avoid a trip to the park.
That's what my kids would say. Yeah, frozen yogurt, A
new book. I mean, wait, let's just find let's stop there.
A new book. A new book is going to motivate
my kids.
Speaker 1: To buy a new book.
Speaker 4: That's all I'm doing is buy n kids books so
that they'll read. A trip to the beach. Well we're
going to go to the beach anyway. A movie theater, outing,
a fidget spinner, a five dollars toy, et cetera. Nothing big,
but just something to keep them going. Listen, I listen,
I gott we dropped them off at your house.
Speaker 1: Whoever wrote that letter you read with them? Yeah, I
keep them going.
Speaker 4: We know that when they return to school in August,
their fourth grade teachers are going to be so impressed
with they're reading. This summer is also a great time
to keep practicing their multiplication and division facts. Oh yeah,
some students need to work on their automaticity. If they
spend five minutes a day practicing, they'll be ready to
go for fourth grade math. Now I get that, I
really do. I understand my kids are not thereat in theory.
It sounds great, and these are caring teachers. I love,
By the way, I love love both these teachers. I'm
not bagging on the teachers because and I'm not just
saying that both of the kids teachers, both these third
grade teachers are amazing, dedicated, enthusiastic. The kids both love
their teachers and they love each other's teachers. It's just
so like not for my kids, are just not those kids.
Here's the and this so here's the plan. Here's the
reading goals. Yeah, okay, June nineteenth to the twenty third,
they want them to read every day for twenty five minutes.
The twenty sixth through the thirtieth read for thirty minutes.
The third of July through July seventh, thirty minutes. Then
July tenth, they bump it up thirty five minutes a day,
then starting on the twenty fourth of July, thirty five minutes,
then thirty five minutes the next week. Then August seventh,
they want take it up forty minutes a day, August fourteenth,
forty minutes a day, August twenty first four. Okay, by
the way, that doesn't sound maybe the people whose kids
love to read, that probably doesn't sound like a ton
your kids are going into fourth grade.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, but imagine kids.
Speaker 4: Imagine the powers power struggle that goes into when your
kids do not want to read and every day.
Speaker 3: So right now, we're still doing those book goals where they.
Speaker 4: Read three yesterday, I must have told my kids to
read forty times for I'm feel you for every minute
that they were supposed to read. Was me going, guys,
remember this is the last push. This is the last
week that you had to do these book goals. I
really want you to finish the three books. Are you reading?
Did you start reading? Why are you reading?
Speaker 3: Why is the shower running? When I just told you
to start? Now? You didn't want to read. You didn't
want to tak a shower for the last month.
Speaker 4: But suddenly, when I'm really forcing the reading, suddenly now
is the perfect time for a shower. No, turn off
the shower, sit your butt on the can. And then
I turn into this like the reading gestapo. And I
don't appreciate my role, and don't say feel your pain.
Speaker 3: Anybody who will find them a book they really like.
Speaker 4: There are no books that Sadie really likes. I don't
care if it's the easiest, most fun. I'm trying graphic
novels at cartoons. I don't care what you read. Just
read something I don't like that. That's boring? What about
this book? This is about a fucking middle schooler? How
could you not this is I don't it's boring.
Speaker 1: Oh and they judge it by the cover too.
Speaker 4: Every looks boring. I know there's Elbe. Almost anything I
show her, she's like.
Speaker 3: All right, I'll try that.
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 3: She just wants to read, So I never had to
deal with it with her. I didn't have to.
Speaker 4: I mean, for those of you who have been listening
to the podcast a long time, yes, when Elbe was
in fourth grade, there was my problem with the reading.
Back then for her was that they're just so focused
on the number.
Speaker 1: Of books and not on the page none.
Speaker 4: So Albi was like, I want to read a book
that's three hundred pages, and I was like, go for it.
Speaker 3: Read what you're interested in.
Speaker 4: If you want to read that book, you should, Yeah,
but I can't finish three. I can't read nine hundred pages.
That's in five days. So I'd be like, you know what,
then you should be exempt from that, and I'll talk
to your.
Speaker 3: Teacher and just read three. Just read the three hundred
page book.
Speaker 4: But the teachers would be like, well, that's just not
how we do it. So then I would be like,
just do what you want, Alb.
Speaker 3: You're reading.
Speaker 1: Who cares?
Speaker 3: And by the way, Albi's a fabulous student.
Speaker 1: Of course, of course. I mean it's so super hard
to get them to motivate while they're in school. You
want us to motivate them while they're out of school.
And like we went on the vacation, I'm like, don't
forget to break in your books because we're going to
an Asian family. They don't they don't read. They're all reading,
so don't look like the dumb two twins that come
around with no books. And Natalie's like, no, no, I am,
I'm bringing our workbooks. And I go, you are, and
she goes, yeah, mister sample said to bring him to
put him in the fire, so when we do our schmores,
we can we can burn the fire. I was like, no, no,
you're missing the points, bitch.
Speaker 3: Your own were bringing kindling, Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm not carrying those. You're gonna put
them in your backpack. I'm not gonna carry that shit.
But then they bring the book. Did they read? Not once? No. Tolleen,
the oldest sister, she read Nicholas Sparks books too, by
the way, Wow, she's Louise. But the other three, I mean,
Cammy loves to watch TV, and so do my kids,
especially on a vacation. So those three were down watching
TV forever every minute they could chance. They again, I'm like,
can you guys just read for a few minutes or
Sonny since we're not going white water rafting, And he's like,
don't even don't even say it, because he knew what
I was gonna say. We're gonna go back to the
house and read. Because I kept saying that to Tolleen's
I knew that's what she wanted to do, right, and
that's what I want to do. And I said, so
that's what you're gonna No, No, sat underneath a blanket
and watched Flash.
Speaker 3: See that's the thing, it's that I have okay with Elbe?
All right?
Speaker 4: So Elbe is not unless she's really into a book.
She isn't necessarily a kid. She's not a bookworm. She's
not like me.
Speaker 3: You're not going to just find her curled up on
a chair reading her book. It's just not going to happen.
Speaker 4: But she does love to read, and when she gets
into a book, she doesn't want to stop reading. So
she'll read it night before she goes to bed, and
she'll be the kid that's like up till eleven because
I just wanted just a few more pages, mom, Can.
Speaker 3: I just read five more minutes? So, once you get
her into it.
Speaker 4: And there's nothing else that's trying to capture her attention,
she reads. Sadie and Xander No matter what are all about,
Like you have to they're very goal oriented. Sadie will
read okay, so to say her book goal is three
in the week and she's on the last one. She
will read like Okay, to finish this book, I've got
to read half of it today and half of it tomorrow.
So let's just say the book is one hundred pages.
Then she's to be like, okay, I'm at page fifty.
If you go like, well, why if you're liking the book,
why don't you just keep going and then you'll have
less street tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Nope, that's fine. No, I'm done fifty. I'm on page fifty.
Speaker 4: She will never read a minute over what she's supposed
to be reading. It sucks because I let you know, like,
and then it just becomes bossing into it. Now do
you think it's because there's so many other things in
their sphere these days than there was an r Like
there's just well a phone talking on a phone, or
an iPad, or even just each other. Like I had
no brother and sister to play with, a two older
brother that you know, like I think I was, Yeah,
I agree. I wasn't allowed to watch much TV at all,
and I came My mother was a big reader and
she really stressed the importance of reading. And I was
read to a tony as a kid, so I just
developed and it was a such an escape for me.
Speaker 3: I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 4: I loved a good book, and then it definitely was
like a drug, Like it was the thing that I.
Speaker 3: Did before I discovered overeating or drugs or alcohol. That
was like a thing to get like addicted to, like into.
Speaker 1: I would just love to.
Speaker 3: Be lost in a good book. I think a couple things.
Speaker 4: I think that there's so much emphasis on reading now
that it has taken some of the fun out of it.
Speaker 3: Because I don't.
Speaker 4: Remember there being all these like book goals and you
have to read this many pages a day or you
have to read this many books. I think it was
just like loving good stories when I was a kid,
and it was like a thing that we I like doing.
Speaker 3: Then I think for Maddie or Xander trying to get.
Speaker 4: Used to calling e Xander, I think if he was
really allowed to read what he wants to read and
at the pace he wants to read, he would like
reading more.
Speaker 3: I think being forced to.
Speaker 4: Like you have to read only books that we have
that are at this level, this level, I think it
takes some of the fun out for him. And then
for Sadie, I feel like her her she has more
trouble reading, so it's harder for it to be, it
still feels like work for her brain.
Speaker 3: So it still feels like a chore.
Speaker 4: So even when she's read, even when a book is
kind of funny, I think her brain is not. It's
not so automatic. The reading still isn't automatic. So it's
not like she just gets lost in the book.
Speaker 3: It's still work.
Speaker 1: Do you think the more she does it, though, the
more the I mean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it gets easier, but she's it's still not easy
for her to read the type of book she likes
to read.
Speaker 1: What is she reading?
Speaker 3: Well, left to her.
Speaker 4: Own devices, she would want to read just dork Diary.
And I told her, okay, as soon as school's out,
I don't care that dork Diary is not on your level.
As soon as schools out, start with book one and
read for the summer, read dork Diaries. That's all you
have to read, book after book. Just read that every day.
I don't care.
Speaker 1: That's a good idea.
Speaker 3: And she was okay with that. She likes that's all
she likes. She likes. Uh, I'm forcing her to read
this bad Kittie book?
Speaker 1: Im that?
Speaker 3: Andane Zane Xander likes bad kitty.
Speaker 1: What does he reading?
Speaker 4: He's also likes this series called Teddy Mars, which is
just the book about a kid.
Speaker 1: What was that Olga book? You said?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Olga something it was. It's really cute. It's
a new release.
Speaker 3: Like Harper Collins.
Speaker 4: Sends me books sometimes, and this Olga look it up.
It's got like a red cover. Oh loved it. Was
laughing out loud, stopping at every page. And my friend
Megan uh tweeted me or texted me and was like,
oh my god, my daughter. I got it from my
daughter and she's read it like three times already. It's
really cute book.
Speaker 1: Noah, it's funny. It's because you told me about it.
I wrote Olga book and on my notes and then
I remember, like like a week later, I'm looking through
my notes, I'm like, oh, the book, Oh the book book.
What am I trying to tell Olga? I gotta tell
her to go shop? Is there a book that she
needs to get for the kids? I couldn't figure out
what it said, Olga book. Oh you told me nuts.
I'm like, Olga, are you supposed to get a book
for the kids or do you have a book that
I'm supposed to O's like no, I don't know what
you're talking about.
Speaker 4: Here's here's the book found it. It's called Olga and
the Smelly Thing from Nowhere.
Speaker 1: So it's called Okay, it's.
Speaker 4: Got little like cartoon, it's got drawings and graphs and
funny and it's really like laugh out loud funny, like
I'm telling you. Xander was like every page was like,
can I just read you one funny thing from this page?
Speaker 1: Sonny would like that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he would love it. He will laugh out loud.
Olga and the Smelly Thing from Nowhere.
Speaker 1: Awesome.
Speaker 4: I wonder if she's done other books. If there's a series,
I don't think so. I think it's her first one. Also,
Stick Cat and Stick Dog they like. I think there
might be more in that series two. That's a fun
one for them. Oh. Also I think this is written
down the Tapper Twins. Yeah, because that'll be got two
more of those. Okay, Before we wrap, thank you to
