Speaker 2: Yeah you didn't say anything, keep going.
Speaker 1: I see I was saying. Today we're all uh, all
three of us in our own different ways, not really
running on all of our cylinders.
Speaker 3: So I didn't sleep. I think at all. You ever
have those nights? Yes, It's like I think I got
a body as a sleep trigger. And if I don't
fall asleep at the time, like I get tired, I
full darted bear, I have to turn off the show
wherever it is and.
Speaker 1: Go to sleep.
Speaker 3: And then I didn't fall asleep, and then John fall
asleep snoring away. I having a great getting disease, and
I was like, oh god, I'm I'm pretty still awake.
And then my mind started going, and then I started
thinking about things that are bothering me, and it was like,
oh God, how am I going to go to sleep now?
So then then I had I started going, okay, stop
thinking about things that are bothering you, like try to
do a little like meditation, try to just like drift off.
And then right when I'd be like, oh, I think
I'm drifting off. I think I'm starting to fall asleep,
I'd be like.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not, I'm not still awake. Same, you know,
I think it happens to me like a couple times
a year. Well just one night where I just don't sleep,
like just feel like I've been up all night. It's
always the night before I got to get up and
do something the next day. Yeah, it's never on a
Saturday night when nothing going on Sunday morning. It's always
and uh uh. And what I noticed too, what I
do and I want to go back to sleep. I
try to shut my brain off. But one of the
things I notice that I do is my facial expression.
I like try as if like I'm trying to concentrate
on fod, like my face will tense up, like like
like a little kid closing their eyes waiting for surprise
for their birthday, you know, like you're squinting, like trying
to make yourself falls. And I have to tell myself like, okay,
relax the facial muscles doing that too. Yes, yeah, it
makes a big difference. And then as soon as I
start to feel like I'm falling asleep, no, then I
just get snapped back. I had a rough night too. Well,
Kaylin's not feeling great, no, smart, what's my general?
Speaker 2: I just I didn't really sleep last night either. I
was like sneezing constantly all the way over here. I
fel kind of nauseous. Perfect, it's like a general, a
general not great feeling.
Speaker 1: I feel nauseous too, but it's because I'm hungover.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what happened, well yesterday.
Speaker 1: What happened yesterday was Labor Day and Suzanne just got
back from taking her daughter Gracie to college. The night
before dropping her daughter off, so she was like in
New York.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, no, I remember all our college y Yeah,
it's in the city.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the one that starts with the peace yeah, pace, pace. Yeah.
So she got she dropped her daughter off. She was
there like all week, and she was like, I want
to plan Labor Day for us to get together because
I know I'm gonna want to see you and talk
to you, and like, you know, that's her only child
and she's taking her all the way across country. So
I get it and her boyfriend and they decided they
were going to go like get a there's these things
called resort Pass. It's an app and you just get
on there and you just put a hotel or wherever.
Most hotels have these now pay twenty five bucks and
you get a day by the pool, like like you know,
a day, you know, a past to sit by the pool.
So she's like, we're gonna get it for Lux Hotel
on sunset or yeah, sun sunset, and I was like great, okay,
and then she says, do you want should we invite
Don my other girl Kookie girlfriend down and her husband Steve. Okay.
Don does not have good short term memory. She has
good long term, not short term. So Don has always
kind of been one of those fibbers in life. And
by the way, before we start started this show, what
did I say? I told you? What did I say?
You said?
Speaker 3: I told Don, I'm going to bag on you on
my podcast tomorrow And she said, go ahead.
Speaker 1: I don't care. I don't care. Yeah, So but this
is one thing I didn't tell her. But Susanna and
I were kind of cracking up because we've known donn
our whole life, like it's nothing new, all right, So
we invite her and her husband. They say they're in Okay,
two weeks ago before Labor Day, she I bring it up, Oh,
and I buy the pass. I go, well, if you
guys are gonna go, I'll go online. I'll buy the passes,
I'll take You know, you guys should just venmo me.
So I go on, I buy the pass and two
weeks ago she we're talking and I go, okay, so
like Labor Day, Suzanne's leaving for New York and Labor
Day we're going to the Oh yeah, that's right. Oh shit,
I forgot. Oh. Then she goes her husband, Steve has
a meeting on Labor Day. So Steve's not gonna go.
But and I get it, like if I asked Steve,
he would just go. I don't want to go. But
why does she have to make up some lie that
like he's got a meeting on Labor Day. For God's sake,
you've had a meeting on Labor day, okay whatever. I
was like, okay, no problem. You know they already venmo me.
So I was like, all right, you guys, you can
by the way you can read, you can get a
refund up to twenty four hours hours before the before
you go. So and so I tell her this and
she's like, okay, you know, so she we forgot, we
forget about it. Then uh then she tells me, oh,
two days before it. While Suzanne's still in New York,
I'm talking to her on Friday night. I'm talking her
on the phone and she says, she goes. She goes, Oh,
so Steve's probably not gonna make it. And I don't
say anything, and she goes because it's his annual trip
to Delmark with the boys.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: But I was like, God, just say Steve doesn't want
to go. I was like, uh huh, okay, that's fine. No,
but I'm still coming. I'm like, okay, all right. So
then then the morning and then another thing comes. But
then Steve then then in the morning, Uh, she takes
forever to get to my house anyway, whatever. So she
ends up spending the night last night, and we were fine, like,
did you go to the hotel? So we did. We
went to the hotel. We had a great time, caught
up with Suzanne. Was nice. We had you know, a
couple of beers by the pool, you know, nothing big.
Then we get we uber there, you know, and then
we uber back and oh and I had to pick
up Phil. I'll tell this on Friday Show. But I
had to pick up Phil in the uber. There's a
doggy uber by the way, there is no I didn't
know that. Yes, Suzanne called it for me. She's like, yeah,
give me your phone, I'll find it, like scroll all
the way down. It says for dogs transportation. It makes sense,
right because everybody travels with their dogs.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 1: So anyway, so we had a great day. We come
home and she's like, I'm gonna I'm gonna come in
because then she uber to my house. So we get
home at like six o'clock, seven o'clock in the evening,
and she's like, I'm just gonna come in and chill
before I have to get in another uber. And I'm like, okay, like,
you have plenty of time to get right, just go home.
I know, I know. But so she comes in and
by the way, Suzanne's like, Lynette, you've changed throughout the
years because you are a lot. You used to never
have patients, especially for Dawned, and now you're like overly
nice with her, you know. And I'm like and Suzanne's like,
I have no patience. I used to have all the
pa It's like we flipped and I said, I, you know,
I don't know what it is I feel, you know. Huh.
She's got a lot of injuries and you know, medical ailments,
and she's on a ton of medication for her blood.
She's got blood thinner, She's on all kinds of shit.
Speaker 3: She drinks on that and she drinks.
Speaker 1: Yes, so she she was she is allowed. She did
actually yesterday at the pool only have like I think
she only had one glass. Actually, uh, unless she snuck
a night and see. But it took forever anyway, it
took forever to get serviced by the pool. Maybe that's
why I don't know. And we weren't there very long.
Suzanne got tired real quick. She was like, I'm exhausted.
I want to go home. So eventually, so we were
all there for like three hours, not long, right, but
then yeah, So she continued and stayed throughout the night
and then opens up wants to open up my bottle
for that I got for my birthday of wine. And
I'm like, are you sure it's okay? Ask Steve. So
I made her text Steve, and Steve said, she can
only have one glass, and I said, and she already
had a glass by the boy. He said, yeah, she
can have one glass. So she had one glass. I
had a glass, and I hate wine, and it just
made me like I was ready for bed. And I
wake up this morning and like another half. Like she
had another glass after I went to bed. Not it
was still a lot of wine left. But she only
had another glass. But still anyway, she spent the night, yes,
And I am like, I didn't get much sleep because
she snores and she's loud, and she's one of these
sleep talkers when she talked, like in her sleep she talks.
She's one of these active sleepers, you know, like their
brain doesn't shut off. Yeah. Like she's like yeah to
Steve and her in her sleeve like Steve, you know.
And I'm like and then she goes, oh, was I
talking in my sleep? Oh my god.
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, I'm exhausted just hearing the story.
Speaker 1: I also because I didn't yes, yes, And because you
didn't sleep, Yeah, you should be taking a nap right
now while I tell the story. I know I'm done.
I so long. She left in the morning, she left
this morning. Yes, but did you have to be like, okay, no, no,
because she didn't she wasn't planning on spending the night.
She didn't have her medication, and she's got to get
home to those medications otherwise she could have a seizure.
Oh And I was like, oh, hell no, So she
she woke up. I think she woke up right before
I woke up. And then uh yeah, and then I
ordered bagel. We were starvings. I got bagels and then
she left. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's tiring.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I was just thinking about this is well, you'll understand
why I connected these two topics, but I was just
thinking about when having sleepovers, when the kids have sleepovers,
and how when they were young, it was always such
a ksha. I lived in fear of the kids having
sleepovers at our house, even though you know, I like
to be the hub.
Speaker 1: I like all the.
Speaker 3: Kids to hang out at our house, but sleepovers were
always so so much work because you're like, well, because
my kids started having sleepovers when they were young, like seven,
Ilbie did, and she liked having sleepovers at our house.
She didn't like going to other people's houses as much.
But it was always like Okay, where are they going
to sleep, like, because when they were really young, they
didn't have they had twin beds, so it was like
then we would have an arrowbed.
Speaker 1: An arrow mattress, you know.
Speaker 3: But then you have to make sure that you have
food they like for dinner. And then a lot of
times they get sad, you know, when it starts getting late.
But then even when they even when that part, sometimes
you'd have to like and listen. Other people had to
do that with Lbie. I'm not complaining about other people's
kids in this circumstances. Just like sleepovers, I remember being
so fun when I was a kid that I really
wanted my kids to have that experience, like slumber parties.
Speaker 1: Sleeper parties, that's what you used to call it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But like if I had my friend used to
sleepover like every other weekend, and then I would sleep
at her house on the other weekend, and I just
remember always being so fun and not I remember her
mom being really hands off. This was my friend and
I wrote about her in Drunkish who was super wealthy.
Her father was this owned a record company. So I
had this So I was young, like between the ages
of six and maybe twelve. I was really good friends
with this girl. I've never been able to find her.
And I know I've told you this before, but she
lived in this Hue Mongus house in the Hollywood Hills
that it used to be the.
Speaker 1: Jackson's used to live there.
Speaker 3: Wow, and it had I mean, it was just a
massive mansion and I had I just remember thinking as
a little kid, like how fun it was because we
would go for hikes, yeah, and doing air quotes because
it was like a hike to go all the way around.
There was a path that led around the outside of
our house.
Speaker 1: With all these views.
Speaker 3: Then they had it was like a separate house that
was a maid's quarters.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: And then there was an upstairs in a downstairs and
downstairs there was a whole huge sauna and like a
room that went under the swimming.
Speaker 1: Pool that you could like look wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they had like two swimming pools.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 3: It was crazy. But my point is her mom. It
was the seventies, so it was super hippy dippy, you know,
and the mom would just be like, you guys are
on your own, like go in the kitchen and find
yourself food or maybe a maid would like make us
a meal and then uh, if we were being too loud.
I just remember the mom would come marching into the
room with no shirt on, like just boobs swinging in
I'd just be like okay, bagdad, and then we'd be
like oh shit.
Speaker 1: Like then we'd be like, sorry, titties are coming down
the hall.
Speaker 3: Yes, wow, my stepfather. One time when I was having
a sleepover. I remember we were camping and he came
storming over because we were being loud to like our tent,
and he was naked, ugh, penis swinging in the wind,
and I just remember being very traumatized by that, like,
that's not cool, right, Dad's I don't care. That was
also probably like the seventies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a thing. I think, just nudity hey
yeah yeah yeah, just or half walking around your bron underpants,
right whatever.
Speaker 3: But it was funny because we were very pretty poor.
So she lived, like I said, in this ginormous house
with super rich step dad. I think it was her
mom's boyfriend and they all lived together. And then I
lived in a duplex in like a bad part of town,
and we would My id of fun was like we
would walk a block to Montgomery Ward. Oh yeah, steal
candy and then like get a bunch of wacky packs,
you know those with the stickers with the like you
bum coffee.
Speaker 1: Oh do you remember those? Do you remember wacky packages?
Because I didn't eat I didn't eat a lot of candy.
Speaker 3: It wasn't it wasn't candy. It was it was like collectors,
like garbage pail kid cards. It was like baseball cards,
but they were takeoffs on ads. Oh, so it would
be like, I don't I can't remember the only one
that comes to mind is you bum coffee. And they
were stickers. And then you also got these like cards
that made a puzzle. It sounds and there was a
it was like the nineteen seventy five series. So anyway,
my friend Cheryl would get money, come with like a
bunch of like fifty bucks, and then we would just
buy a ton.
Speaker 1: They were like ten cents each for these wacky packs.
Speaker 3: We would buy a ton of them, bring them home,
bring home our loute. Anyway, sleepovers were fun at that point,
but cut to being a mom and having kids that age,
it's so much work.
Speaker 1: It's not like it was in those days where you
just go, yeah, go back, Can I figure it out?
Speaker 3: Go find some candyd eat watch team watch movies on Cinemax. No,
you have to like make sure that they're happy and
watching appropriate TV and make sure you ask permission from
the other mom if their kids allowed to watch like
this movie all that stuff. Anyway, now that my kids
are sixteen going on seventeen, the Twins the other night
they had, they had like there were like nine kids
in our house if you count lb because elb was
it was Elbie, Sadie, Xander, their friend, Izzy, Jack, Rebecca, Christo,
lyleout Crocodile.
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, a huge amount.
Speaker 3: School Well yes, well one girls it's Sadie's friend, goes
to a different school. But it was just like a
big pack of kids. And I was like what, I
don't know, doesn't hurt me, Like, you know, they all
spent the night. I mean, I woke up in the morning,
went to go walk the dog, and there were like
Xander and his friends like on sleeping bags on the
floor in like our back room. There's like a sofa
back there, another kid there, another kid on the regular sofa,
another kid on the arrow bed, Sadie in her room,
and body with another bodies everywhere. Body's body's bodies, and
I just was thinking, I love this so much and
there's no work involved. They all walked to go get food.
They all went to like Shakeshack and got themselves dinner.
They walked back. I didn't hear from any of them.
They watched TV or whatever. It's so nice And I
just want to say to all the parents that are
feeling like and Caitlin, you're not even at sleepovers yet.
When you get there, you're gonna want to shoot yourself
because it's a lot of work. But just know, in
a few years you're gonna be like it.
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, it is. It's I remember when the
kids were old enough. Natalian never likes spending the night
at her friend's house either. She always wanted everybody at
our house. And it was when they're young, you have
to yes, you have to make sure you have to
get the bedding, bedding, all the bedding is there, Like enough,
did somebody need a pillow to get a pillow from
the couch, you know, like improvised, right, And then but
then once they hit a certain age, like at the teenage,
the teen years, like she just just took it, took
over and they just did their own things. I love
in the living room. Yeah, it was maybe so happy.
Speaker 3: I like them all being at our house. It's kind
of a free for all and they're just all hanging
out and everybody's happy and they can all, you know,
And I love that Xander is starting to feel a
little more entitled.
Speaker 1: He's our kids.
Speaker 3: It is always asking permission for everything.
Speaker 1: Would it be okay if so and so spends the night?
Speaker 3: And I'm always like, Xandra, do I ever say no
like to that?
Speaker 1: Of course? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And then that night he didn't even ask, like just
there were just just kids everywhere, and I was like,
good for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, that's nice. It's nice, so fun.
Speaker 3: Should we let's take a quick break and talk about
our newest sponsor.
Speaker 1: Yes, we have a new sponsor, fabric.
Speaker 3: By Gerber Life. This is term life insurance. Here's what's
so great about it. Like we think we're taking care
of our kids by enrolling them in after school lessons

not offer enough protection for your family and it may
not follow you if you leave your job. Yes, that

even the math class that she's getting out of the way.
She likes the teacher because he was like he says,
she tells me, he says, how many kids are here
that need math for their major? No one raise their hand,
And he was like, that's what I thought. So I'm
gonna make this as easy and simple as possible. And
I think it's a hybrid too. It's one of her
classes that's hybrid. So she only has to go, like,
I don't know, one day a week and then there's
a bunch of study stuff. But he told them that
he's going to give them a whole like any quizzes,
it's gonna be you can use your notes and he's
going to give you a template of the quiz which
is basically the quiz to study and it cannot be
easier to take his class.
Speaker 3: That's great, which is great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so she has that, she has journalism, she likes English,
and she has a film which is another one time.
Those are fun classes. Yeah, And she has a list
of movies and I'm like, let me help you pick
and she's like, all right, I'll she I'm like, tell me,
can you think of one movie on the list? And
she said, uh, there's that movie lady Bird.
Speaker 3: Okay, that movie, Yeah, I didn't love it.

Speaker 1: Or there was also Moonlight? What's Moonstruck? Was the movie
with Chaer right Moonlight?
Speaker 3: Moonlight was the movie.
Speaker 1: That was at the at the Oscars read yes, at
the very end they got it wrong. Yes, Moonlight was
supposed to win. Yeah, so she's gonna watch that one Moonlight. Yeah,
I mean she might like Ladybird. I didn't that wasn't
it isn't it like a coming of age?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's with the Yeah, it's with the director. Stephanie

two movies recently that were not dominated for Oscars. Didn't
that movie Free Ladybird win something? It did? Yeah, it
won something. It was nominated. I remember you didn't like it. Why?
I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just didn't love it. But I also didn't love
Barbie the way everybody else did either.
Speaker 1: Even watch Barbie, you didn't. No, should I watch it?
Speaker 2: It's a fun movie. Yeah, yeah, Ryan Gosling crack me up?
And that I loved it so hard at Ryan Gosling
in that movie.
Speaker 1: I love him.
Speaker 3: It was listen, it's a fun movie, and I had
a good time watching it. But I just had some
issues with like the message. I don't know. I just
didn't feel that it was this feminist message like everybody
else did. I was like, they're still all hot, so
I don't not really sure, and the one that's not
is the weird Barbie. So yes, I guess we're learning
that you can be super hot but also be a lawyer.
But I don't I didn't.
Speaker 1: That's just me, you know, I speaking of Ryan Gosling.
I don't know if I watched a movie. I don't
think I told you. If you guys haven't seen it.
It's pretty good. Beyond the Pines, Place Beyond the Pines,
Place beyond the Pines with him. It's really good. It's
based on a book. Okay, that's why it was so.
I watched it on the plane. I did not see
the very end because we landed, but I got the
gist of it. No, I I mean it was literally
the last ten minutes I didn't see. But it was
really good. I enjoyed it. Okay, Yeah, it's good. Is
any bad?
Speaker 2: It's a little sad. I really liked it too, though.
I think that's where he met his wife. Even so,
they have great chemistry.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, That'sley Cooper, isn't it. Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, A Place beyond the Pines.
Speaker 1: It's really good.
Speaker 3: I saw, you know, if you're looking for like like
highbrow entertainment, I saw the Gary Coleman documentary.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 3: I saw that, you did.
Speaker 1: I didn't watch it yet. I'm going to watch it
because I was withdrawn last night. It's gonna be my
Monday evening viewing.
Speaker 3: She didn't want to watch it.
Speaker 1: No, she passed out, and I was so tired I
went to sleep. But no, it was it good.
Speaker 3: It's it's okay. No, it's not that good. It also
took me like four tries to get through it. I
kept we kept starting it, and it would get into
it and then I'd be like.
Speaker 1: Was I asleep? Was I I think I missed something?
Speaker 3: And then John would go, let's just turn it off
and we'll watch the rest tomorrow. Next day, I'd be like, oh, go,
let's watch. Let's get this done. Gary Coleman documentary.
Speaker 1: Listen what you're talking about, Willie.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it would show Bo was and then he and
then I'd watch like I'd have to keep going back.
Speaker 1: You ever do that?
Speaker 3: I not remember this party. Then I'd rewind more and
John would be like, really you were asleep for that part.
I'm like, I got I have no memory of that happening,
go back, and then it's like, oh, I guess I
only got through like ten minutes of the movie the
first time.
Speaker 1: So then I'd get.
Speaker 3: Through like another you know, like twenty twenty five minutes,
fall asleep again, get tired, go but thing.
Speaker 1: That's what happens when you're a darted bear. It takes
out your memory too.
Speaker 3: Yes, and see, I don't learn a lesson. John's always like,
don't get under the covers, don't.
Speaker 1: Get under the covers, And I'm like, but I gotta
get under the covers because it's so warm. I now,
so you're just gonna fall asleep. I'm like, I am not.
I'm really into this. I really want to see this.
Speaker 3: Okay, and then I'm asleep. So so Gary Coleman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, why don't you just tell me? He had his.
Speaker 3: Wife who was I remember razy pants? Yeah, like she's
out of her mind.
Speaker 1: Didn't she try and take him for his money insteady? Yes?
Speaker 3: But also okay, you do end up you watch this
thing and you feel so bad for Gary Coleman because
everybody just wanted to squeeze the little guy for his money.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So he starts out on you know, different strokes. He
starts out on a couple shows his parents, right commercial.
Then he did like an episode of Good Times, and
then I think he was like maybe a regular I
don't know, but then he got different strokes and then
would you talk about yeah, uh, would you talk about
Conrad Bain, I don't know his name by the show,
mister Drummond, you're talking about, mister Drummond. What was that?
Speaker 1: What was the theme song to different Different Strokes?
Speaker 3: It takes different strokes, it takes different strokes through the world.
Speaker 1: Whatever was that it though, that's I could think of it.
It takes uh, you take the good, you take the bad,
you take the both.
Speaker 3: And then that's the fact I know she was probably
also on right, would you talk about Lisa?
Speaker 1: What you talking about? Two D.
Speaker 3: So apparently later on in his career he was like
horrified by having to do that tagline. He was he
just felt violated by every time everybody's like, can you
do the line? And he'd be like, I don't want
to do that anymore. Also, you know, he had like
these kidney issues that I'm sure you know that, and
he was on dialysis and then he had a kidney transplant,
but then it went bad. At a certain point he
had no kidneys at all, so he was just getting
dialysis and he was really sick. And that's why he
was so small because of the kidney disease and all
the immune immunosuppressant suppressant drugs that he was on. So,
you know, he he was like unhappy and and he
didn't want to work. I mean, I'm kind of spoiling
the documentary, but na, I'm later in the documentary he
meets he's just unhappy, and he meets this woman and
she seems like a meth head. I don't know. She
seems pretty fucked up. And she immediately is like, you
need to go work, you need to make money. How
are we gonna supposed to pay our bills? Which, okay,
she a bit of a point that they need money,
but like she could go work, I guess she'd go.
She's probably also seems to be not saving her money
for meth, so she's like, I don't know. But anyway,
So when Gary Coleman died, a lot of people thought
that she did something because it was an abusive relationship.
Speaker 1: It was super toxic.
Speaker 3: The police had been called, he'd almost filed a couple
times the restraining order but then called it off at
the last minute. She was violent.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then they found him like with a massive
head injury on the kitchen floor with full with blood everywhere.
So there was they couldn't figure out the exact they
couldn't prove that she did it. But oh, most people
think that she caused his death. I thought, he Oh,
and then she called nine one one. This is the
best slash worst part. When she called nine one one,
she was like, not really crying. She was just like, yeah,
you know, I found you know Gary. They were she'd
married him, but then they got divorced. But then they
were still living together because she didn't have anywhere to go,
I guess. So anyway, the nine one one operators like, okay,
can you like, can you do chest compressions?
Speaker 1: And she's like, ooh no.
Speaker 3: There's so much blood. I'm not gonna that's It's like
I don't want to be that close to all that blood.
Speaker 1: Oh. And then nine one one.
Speaker 3: Operators like okay, but is he breathing and she's like,
I don't know. It's ooh, there's so much blood. It's
just gross. I don't I can't handle that much blood.
So she wouldn't. So the nine one operators like, can
you help him? And she's like no, I can't.
Speaker 1: Wow, Yes, what a bitch, it's crazy. What did I
thought he passed away due to complications? No?
Speaker 3: No, wow, they said, she thinks she her story, but
when you watch the documentary, you're like, oh, yeah, I
like her for this one hundred percent. She claimed that
she heard a loud thud and he fell and like
hit his head and but there was way too much
blood and way too much like a head in a
huge head injury. And some of the people were like, look,
he didn't have that far to fall.
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, yeah, fall, what do you
mean fall? Like trip over the carpet fall? Or was
he standing on a stool to reach something? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And it was kind of confusing because I thought he'd
fallen down the stairs. It seemed like she pushed him
down the stairs, but I don't know he was because
he was found in the kitchen.
Speaker 1: Right, it's you.
Speaker 3: You should watch the documentary though, because there's a lot
you don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah about Arnold. Right, I'm gonna watch it. Yeah,
did you didn't watch the Scott Peterson?
Speaker 3: I started to and then I was like, oh, but
I was like, I already know this story. I've heard
a million podcasts about it, I've seen I've seen documentaries
about it, So I was like, what new information are
they going to have? They're not changing my mind?
Speaker 1: That's what I thought. He is innocent?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I can't.
Speaker 1: We can talk more about it, I know because what
people have been talking on our Facebook page about it, right,
Like somebody I saw a post about it, uh or
maybe was it on our page? Somebody was saying, like
I went in knowing a fully that he is guilty. However,
after watching it, is it a possibility that he could
just be an asshole, shitty husband?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Innocent?
Speaker 3: No, you can't have that many coincidences. Why is he
out fishing? Why did he buy a boat without anyone's knowledge?
Why was he making those weights? Why was he fishing?
Chris eve Well, let's and why was the body found there?

Speaker 3: Yeah, why are you?
Speaker 1: I thought you had eye surgery. Why is the the
paper two inches from your face? Okay, I'm glad you
have noticed that.
Speaker 3: I'm glad you asked because remember how I used to
be before pre surgery. How Yeah, just like before I
got progressive glasses. Though, so my eyes I still am.
I'm still totally near sighted and far sighted. I have
old eyes, so I need the glasses that have far
vision and close vision. But when I had the surgery,
the surgery was to correct double vision, which is totally correct.
But when I'm wearing the my these are distance glasses,
so I can't see anything close up. Because I didn't
get new progressed I have them. They're coming in like
a week, okay, and then I will have I will
never have to do that anymore.
Speaker 1: Right, my old glasses.
Speaker 3: That corrected my double vision and did far near that's
where you noticed.
Speaker 1: I didn't have to do that anymore, I see, Okay,
all right.
Speaker 3: Usually I bring my other glasses, you know, those pink ones, right,
I bring those because I can see the paper. Yeah,
but I forgot them today. Yeah, okay, why lack of
sleep exactly? And well, we didn't talk about why Kaitlin's
what's going on with you?
Speaker 1: Oh? We did, didn't we? You weren't feeling good and
you were tired. Everybody didn't get a good night's sleep
last night. I don't know your two's excuses are you
didn't have down in your bed?
Speaker 3: And then Tuesdays are busy for so the Bachelor finale, Yeah,
is on tonight. There's three it's three hours. So I
have to teach at five my my writing class, some
from like five to six thirty, and then at eight
I have to watch The Bachelor for three hours, take
all the notes, and then tomorrow morning wake up record
Wow Rose Pricks Wow, Yeah, and then go get a crown.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 3: So, so I go to my dentist. I feel like
I was going last week.
Speaker 1: Yeah you did? They canceled or something.
Speaker 3: They said, oh, they're having plumber plumbing issues.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they rescheduled for later that week. I go in.
Speaker 3: I'm all tense, you know, like this is gonna suck
so bad, but I gotta do it. I gotta, like,
you know, man up. So I go in and she
comes in. The dentist comes in and she looks my
tooth and she goes, oh, they already filled it with,
so it's like a temporary stuff in there. They already rebuilt.
I don't know what she called it. Not a dentist, Lynnette.
I did obviously, I went to dental school, but I
didn't fully graduate. She was like, they already did the
rebuild or whatever. And I was like, okay, I don't
know what that means. She's like, well, normally people come
in and they have this like some petty in there.
They fill it with something that's very temporary, could come
out at any minute. But he put in like hard stuff.
She's like, made a tooth like it can last. And
I was like, okay, so what now it has to happen.
She's like, well, I have to make the craw. I
have to file down, whittle down the tooth until it's
just a nub. I was like, well, what is the point.
What was the point of fixing the tooth? Like why
can't you just, like I don't know, put some hard,
hard stuff over it, right instead of stuff? Yeah, didn't
go to didn't go to dental school, but it seems
like kind of common sense, right, you know, I.
Speaker 1: Would do it porcelain on right, Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, put something there, use some kind of light beam. Yes,
the stuff they.
Speaker 1: It went home depot. Yeah, we could do it. I
could bring it in.
Speaker 3: I'll stop at home depot. I'll bring you this. Just
tell me what I need exactly, like or a picture
of the stuff, or the dentist store.
Speaker 1: Dentist store.
Speaker 3: I'll go to the dentist store.
Speaker 1: Is there one around us?
Speaker 3: There's gotta be one.
Speaker 1: Where do you get your stuff? This mirror, I'll go.
Speaker 3: I'll go to that place. I'll order from Amazon. Listen,
I got you covered. You don't have to go out
of your way, But like, can we just avoid this whole?
Why do we have to undo all the work?
Speaker 2: Then?
Speaker 1: I hate that.
Speaker 3: Also, I was like, my dentist does not suffer fools, and.
Speaker 1: I'm a fool.
Speaker 3: So I totally cop to the fact that I have
a lot of unreasonable anxiety. But I was like, hey,
so when I got the root canal done, they gave
me nitrous because I was a train wreck, like very scared.
And she was like uh huh, and I said, so
so is it. But this isn't gonna hurt. Like now
I feel like you're undoing all the work and are
there like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought that you were over the hump of
all that. That's what I thought.
Speaker 3: And I was like, now you're telling me what i'm
hearing all You're gonna be filing down my entire tooth,
like drilling it all the way out.
Speaker 1: And she's like uh huh.
Speaker 3: And I was like, well, that's not good news to me.
That's bad news. And what if you hit a nerve?
And she's like, well, there are no nerves because you
had a root canal, it's all. There's no nerves in
your tooth.
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, but you could slip and
heard the nerve someplace out. It's just it's not like
a fucking canyon. It's like a very small real estate
you're dealing with. There's the tongue, there's the top part
of the mouth, there's.
Speaker 3: There's next door, neighbor's.
Speaker 1: Door, neighbor teeth, the ones across the street. They could
be hit, shrapnel could be flying exactly, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: So I was like I still, She's like, I can
still numb you anyway. I was like, yes, I think
that's a fine idea. So then she's like, well, what
is it that makes you so anxious? And I said,
I think at some point somebody hit a nerve. I
had some dental work where somebody hit a nerve. By
the way, I think it was her. Okay, I didn't
want to say that, but I've been going to her
for a long time, you know. I tried to go
like probably before your time. Somebody traumatized me. It was
her and she hit a nerve and then I screamed
and she was like, it doesn't hurt. So so then
she's like, okay, well i'll numb you up so that
in case, like and then she's almost rolling her eyes.
It's almost audibly annoyed that, like, obviously she's not gonna.
Speaker 1: Don't like doing that because they don't want to wait
and you know, wait for you to get numb. And
I hate waiting to to be numb, I know, but
I do know the idea of just drilling out the tooth,
and I feel it. So anyway, then she's like, so,
why don't you just like get your doctor to prescribe
you something, you know, do something to relax, get take
a pill or something to relax. And I was like, well,
I can't do that. Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's because to me, there's a big difference between getting
nitrous oxide in the moment while they're doing it, and
then the second they're done, it's it's out of your system.
As opposed to like taking something like an audavan. I'm
gonna feel that's gonna I'm gonna be like.
Speaker 1: Oh, I like this right now. Then I'm going to be.
Speaker 3: Like how many do they give me? I doubt they're
going to prescribe just one. And then I'm going to
be like, oh, I'm feeling really anxious, so I think
I might need to take an ad I have.
Speaker 1: It's not going to be good for me.
Speaker 3: So anyway, that is, uh, what's today too? That's tomorrow?
Speaker 1: Really? Yeah, well good luck Sonny's having his wisdom teeth
out tomorrow. Oh shit, it's been this long. This office
doesn't do anything. You know, they do like usually on
Mondays or whatever they do their oral surgeries. And I'm like,
I can't come on a Monday. So finally they were
like two months ago, They're like, okay, we got something
on September fourth. I'm like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, that
sounds good. Then I get the text yesterday and don't forget.
I was like, oh, Sonny, don't forget tomorrow. Get your
wisdom teeth out so cause last time he got sick,
he was throwing up all right, I'm no. I think
that had a lot to do with some nerves made.
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Well, the wisdom teeth.
Speaker 1: See.
Speaker 3: The thing that's so beautiful about getting your wisdom teeth
out is your safe knock you out? Yeah, yeah, I don't.
I have no fear about being knocked out.
Speaker 1: I like it. Yeah, like wake me up when it's over, right,
and then I like to be like, oh.
Speaker 3: We're done. Like that felt like it's no time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it doesn't feel like you were asleep or anything.
It's like, goody quick. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I can handle the after pain me too, much more
easily than.
Speaker 1: The anticipating something might. Yeah, yes, I get it. I
get it. A lot of people feel that way. But
you know, when I took Natalia to get her wisdom teeth,
I you know, explained to her everything and she doesn't
get scared or anything. She's like, yeah, whatever, okay. So
they knock her out and she was I sure I
talked about but she was a crying mess, a crying mess,
and she kept saying, they didn't put me asleep. I
was awake. The whole time, and I'm like, no, I'm
pretty sure. And then when the dentist called the chag
go you guys put her to sleep, right, he goes, oh, yeah,
she was out. They said, you see Natalia, but she
was a crying mess. So we'll see how Sunny's gonna do.
I keep thinking, like, they're you know, they're eighteen, they know,
like they're not little kids. They'll handle it. Well, she
didn't handle it very well. We'll see how he does.
Speaker 3: I think Obi had hers And when she was eighteen,
and I got to be honest, she was fine, Like
she was fine. I really woke up, was being funny,
and then by I swear to God, like two days later,
she was at Universal Studios with her boyfriend.
Speaker 1: Yeah. See, I think Sonny's gonna be like that. I
think he probably will. Yeah, I don't think he's gonna
So when does he leave again? At the end of
this month at twenty sixth?
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Elbe's getting moved in on the sixteenth. Really,
so we're like staggering like Natalia than Elbe than Sunny.
Speaker 1: That's right. Are you excited? You feel like she's ready?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure she's excited.
Speaker 3: I don't like see her that much. As it is,
she is always out doing stuff. She gets up in
the morning, she's gone, she's out at night, she's Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was feeling that way too. Natalia is the same.
Before she left. She was working, or she was out
with her friends, and or she would go spend the night,
you know, somebody's house for a weekend. You know, I
just got kind of got used to it. But now
with her and like Santa Barbara, not that far away,
it still feels like she's at college, but you know,
but but she's still close by. But I still find
myself looking on the thing, where is she? Where is she?
One night, she spent the night at somebody's friends, Like
I know she has other friends down there, but I'm
looking at the thing, and I'm thinking to myself, where
is she? Why isn't she home? It's one o'clock in
the morning. I wake up in the middle of the night,
two o'clock in the morning, I'm texting her. I'm like,
where are you? And she texted me as soon as
she woke up, Sorry, I felt. I went to sleep
at my friend's house, my our girlfriends whatever, and I
can see her roommate was there too, so I didn't
wasn't that freaked out. But I'm still checking on them,
you know, And how often she's been pretty good. She
mostly is texting, but I will, I'll tell her, you know,
call me when you can. I did call her the
other night. She was at a party and like the guy.
The guy was like, are you talking to some Are
you talking to chicks? Are you get inviting chicks over?
And she's like, I'm talking to my mom. Oh my god?
But uh yeah, I mean, uh she does. She she
stays in touch with me. Yeah, we talk. We talked well,
definitely texting a bunch of times a day, not a
bunch of times, but you know, more so than when
she lived at home. You know, she would be gone
all day with her friend whatever. But now that she's there,
I'm like, you know, just keeping in touch. But I can't,
like cut that cord when he goes the same thing,
don't Are you still gonna keep rod? I think I will.
Speaker 3: Robin told me when her son Jack went away to school,
he was like, we're done, Like, I'm off the like
he turned it off and she was like, oh no,
like but she felt it was difficult. She said it
was hard, but she had to respect that he didn't
want her checking on him. I have a feeling that Albie.
I think Ilbie likes that I always know where she is.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It's funny because I was asking my kids the other
day if they think I was just like one of
those things where we were driving home from school and
I was making conversation and I was like, compared to
other moms, do you think I'm like, I know, I'm lenient,
But I was like, do you think, like, compared to
other moms, am I strict?
Speaker 1: Am I like very loose? And I whatever?
Speaker 3: And they said, which I thought was kind of good.
They were like, well, compared to our Mexican friends, you're
very not strict because they have you know, there's been yes,
are super overprotective or just protective. You know, that's the culture.
They don't let them do sleepovers and stuff. So but
then they told me that compared to a lot of
their white friends, I'm not way more lenient, Like I'm lenient,
but they said that they feel more protected by the
fact that I always know where they are. They said
they have a lot of friends who it's like a
free for all, and they have friends that they feel
are not being looked after at all, like that that
they can just do whatever they want whenever they want.
And these kids, this is according to my kids, end
up getting themselves in trouble, like with drugs right right there.
But they're like, so you always know where we are.
You're always checking in with us to make sure we're okay,
like you're on top. And I was like, oh that's nice,
I'm doing something right. Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 1: I have to know where my kids are, at least
up until nobody said anything. Nobody's said like don't follow
me on Life three six anymore or whatever. So it's
fine with me, right. But when I was growing up, yeah,
I read I was the kid. Well we just talked
about it, but I was a kid that never got
to do anything, never was allowed to have sleepovers or
go to well Suzanne was the only one allowed to
sleep over, but I was never allowed to spend the
night over anybody else's house, even if they lived up
the street. You know, they had a Doberman, so I
wasn't allowed to go over there. And it's the Italian culture,
you know. But but I still ended up sneaking out
as I got older, you didn't really stop, but there
was no app to, you know, to find where I am.
Speaker 3: But oh, I can't even imagine. I remember you match
out of my basement window, crawling out with my friend.
We'd wait for my parents to fall asleep, crawl out
the window at like midnight, go to our corner, basically
wait for some guys to come by and like pick
us up. Were driving around drinking beer, getting drunk, and
one time the cops came knocked on the window. We
were like drinking beers and it was like three o'clock
in the morning, and I like lost my mind because
I was like, oh my god, they're going to take
me home and my parents are going to lose it.
Like I was like, they'll kill me.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And what happened did they take did they
take cops?
Speaker 3: Just like I think I cried and was like please,
don't like tell my parents, and you know, I tried,
I'm not drinking, you know, and they were like, all right,
just go go home, and then they didn't. Yeah, yeah, kiddy,
I just can't even imagine back those days, not having
an app and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was different times. Yep.
