Speaker 1: Made uh Desan John, I'll pace Sunny sun on.
Speaker 2: I had a vision nat here.
Speaker 1: Everybody, welcome to our show. I'm your host, Lynnette and
Speaker 1: Stephanie over there.
Speaker 3: Hello, Hello, it's stupid.
Speaker 2: And that's our show.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's Friday.
Speaker 1: Yes it's the weekend, and uh, let's see. You know,
Speaker 1: it's been kind of so weird having Natalia gone at
Speaker 1: the house because well, now it's she left, and then
Speaker 1: I got family that came to town. But in between,
Speaker 1: there was like I don't know, four or five days
Speaker 1: where it was just me and Sonny hanging out. And
Speaker 1: Sonny does his own thing, goes and hangs out with
Speaker 1: his friends and stuff. So I'll be like, do you
Speaker 1: want to eat dinner tonight? No, I'm gonna go eat
Speaker 1: dinner with my friends. Or he'll say yeah, I'll eat dinner,
Speaker 1: and then he falls asleep, and then I'm texting him like, hey,
Speaker 1: what do you want for dinner? What do you want
Speaker 1: for dinner? I'll make you want me to make the chicken? Sleeping,
Speaker 1: he doesn't answer. Then he wakes up at eight o'clock
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, sorry, fell asleep the fuck.
Speaker 2: You know. He's a typical teenager.
Speaker 1: At that age, and it's just it's interesting, like how
Speaker 1: quiet the house has become and how like weird it's
Speaker 1: gonna be weird when your.
Speaker 2: Twins are gone.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're gonna see well I see too much
Speaker 3: of John as it is, you know, because he works
Speaker 3: from home. I mostly work from home. And it is
Speaker 3: like we're just gonna be staring at each other all
Speaker 3: the time. We're gonna have to come up with other
Speaker 3: projects to keep busy because only takes so much of
Speaker 3: like what person without the without distractions and the kids
Speaker 3: and things to do and can you take the I'm here?
Speaker 3: Can you like.
Speaker 1: It's just gonna be like, yeah, now I want to
Speaker 1: listen to a podcast. Yeah, yeah, it's really it's it's strange.
Speaker 1: But I got a lot of good suggestions on Facebook.
Speaker 1: By the way of uh, what to give Phil for treats?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know if you saw that. No,
Speaker 1: but people were like, don't give them those those raw
Speaker 1: hide bones.
Speaker 2: I immediately went out in the backyard, dug his bone
Speaker 2: up and threw it away.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, a lot. There's a lot of controversy about
Speaker 3: raw hide bones. What are they just bad for dogs?
Speaker 1: It's not good digestible, yeah, I see it stuck some.
Speaker 1: And then there's you know, different opinions on bully treats,
Speaker 1: which Phil usually enjoys a bully treat some plate. Some
Speaker 1: people are like, yeah, it's okay, but just once a day,
Speaker 1: you know. You got, of course, keep an eye on them.
Speaker 1: I always give them this stuff when I'm around, right,
Speaker 1: But and then, but I'm gonna be looking into something
Speaker 1: better for Phil. That's more, I guess, digestible and healthier.
Speaker 1: So if anybody has any suggestions, I'm sure we'll get some.
Speaker 2: But thank you, I.
Speaker 3: Need some suggestions, if I may be so bold and
Speaker 3: hit up our audience. So Penelope does not like her food,
Speaker 3: and she's always been extremely finicky since we got her.
Speaker 3: When we got her, the rescue told us to give
Speaker 3: her merricks. They were giving her merricks salmon, and the
Speaker 3: woman who had her was like, she's very picky about
Speaker 3: what she eats, but we found this food that she likes. Now,
Speaker 3: the rescue only had her for like six weeks, but
Speaker 3: they had already been through the fact that she doesn't
Speaker 3: eat a lot of food. It's crazy to me love
Speaker 3: snacks though, like loves people food, you know, But anyway,
Speaker 3: So we tried that food. She ate it for a
Speaker 3: little while, then she like just stopped eating it. She
Speaker 3: didn't want it. So then we've tried so many things,
Speaker 3: and then we have her on this food for like
Speaker 3: overweight dogs for senior who are low low activity dogs.
Speaker 3: And then we add a little bit of ground beef
Speaker 3: to it, which you would think she would love, and
Speaker 3: she will is when we first start, and then she
Speaker 3: gets over it really fast, and now she leaves her food.
Speaker 3: She just won't eat. So I need something else to
Speaker 3: feed her. I've tried ground turkey. I make the turkey
Speaker 3: and the beef in broth so it's more flavorful. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know what to feed her. Oh. I used
Speaker 3: to try the Farmer's Dog because it was our sponsor
Speaker 3: years ago, and they sent us a bunch and she
Speaker 3: really liked it, you know, for like a month, and
Speaker 3: then she went and then she just lost interest in
Speaker 3: that and didn't care.
Speaker 1: Saying to me, because I got a dog that NonStop,
Speaker 1: wants to be fed constantly, will not turn anything down.
Speaker 1: In fact, jumps up and will snatch a bagel off
Speaker 1: a kid's blake.
Speaker 3: Right, Well, we would love a bagel, but she just
Speaker 3: doesn't want dog.
Speaker 1: Doesn't want dog food. Phill will eat whatever I give him.
Speaker 1: He's been on the same dog food for a while.
Speaker 1: All his vet put him on this prescription like dry kibble,
Speaker 1: but you have to wet it, get it soft, and
Speaker 1: he loves it, eats it all the time.
Speaker 3: I think the prescription dog food is a scam.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I know a lot of people whose dogs are on
Speaker 3: prescription dog food, and I just have I just wonder it.
Speaker 1: Is like a brand though, that we can get online.
Speaker 1: We can just it's not like I guess it. I
Speaker 1: guess it was a brand of food that was suggested
Speaker 1: for Phil because of his digestive and because he can't
Speaker 1: gain weight and stuff. And he's slimmed down really nicely
Speaker 1: since we moved, so he's gotten used to get you know,
Speaker 1: table scraps from Adam.
Speaker 2: Now that's been cut out, and he used to get
Speaker 2: in the.
Speaker 1: Trash all the time, and he would get into people's
Speaker 1: backpacks all the time. Not in our house anymore. Now
Speaker 1: it's like everything is shut on the lockdown.
Speaker 2: He hasn't gone.
Speaker 1: Got an into anything, which is great, except for one
Speaker 1: time when I left and I came back and his
Speaker 1: cabinet was open. He I accidentally left it ajar and
Speaker 1: he got it open and got into his treats. It's
Speaker 1: like jerky treats. Oh, which was fine, there wasn't that
Speaker 1: much left, but whatever. But other than that, No, he's
Speaker 1: been great, like he's he's been fine. But uh yeah,
Speaker 1: he's he's.
Speaker 2: Been in better shape. And the coyotes are back now.
Speaker 1: By the way, they're out of control in our neighborhood.
Speaker 1: Sonny walking home at night sees them all the time. Really,
Speaker 1: Anthony got into our house and came into town on
Speaker 1: Sunday night. He ran an aaron down the street. He's like,
Speaker 1: I almost hit a coyote there. And then Saturday morning,
Speaker 1: I'm sitting like in the kitchen and I hear it
Speaker 1: was like ten am in the morning, and I hear like, oh,
Speaker 1: like them howling, and I go, it sounds very close.
Speaker 2: I look outside. They're in my back yard. Oh no,
Speaker 2: there's like the read at least that I could see
Speaker 2: in my backyard just.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what the hell. Phil doesn't even care.
Speaker 1: He's just sitting there looking out the window.
Speaker 3: Oh my God, would lose her mind.
Speaker 1: I mean imagine, I don't A lot of people say
Speaker 1: that they're afraid if they won't come by Phil, but
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: If they're in a pack, I'm scared.
Speaker 3: Oh I've heard that if they're in a pack, they
Speaker 3: don't care. They don't take down a big dog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm not leaving Phil outside. I haven't since
Speaker 1: they came around the first time. But they came around again,
Speaker 1: and it's just it's it's insane.
Speaker 2: So uh.
Speaker 1: And then last night we were going to bed and
Speaker 1: it was like, I don't know, eleven thirty, twelve o'clock
Speaker 1: and you hear them.
Speaker 2: Like they're right outside our door.
Speaker 1: I've never had I've never seen this many in our neighborhood.
Speaker 1: I guess because we live we're right up against the foothills.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I mean. Our neighborhood is right near the
Speaker 3: Ela River and there's end right by a park where
Speaker 3: there's a whole area where they go. But like knock
Speaker 3: on Wood, I haven't had like.
Speaker 2: A scary Yeah, they probably.
Speaker 3: You remember I went through a period. There was one period.
Speaker 3: I guess maybe it had been a really bad drought
Speaker 3: and they were hungry and I don't know, but I
Speaker 3: was seeing them a lot and having Remember I had
Speaker 3: to like call John to come get me one time
Speaker 3: because two of them were following me with Piedelope. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and I had to call John to come with the
Speaker 3: car and put us in the car and take us home.
Speaker 1: It's scary when you're out walking the dog and there's
Speaker 1: like two of them or whatever. Yeah, and asked Sonny,
Speaker 1: I go, aren't you bothered by them? And you're walking
Speaker 1: at home late at night? And he's like, now, they're
Speaker 1: they're scaredy cats. They don't they don't come near me,
Speaker 1: like he can see him, like kind of far away,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't seem to doesn't bother him.
Speaker 3: I feel like I'd want to bring like an airhorn
Speaker 3: with us or something.
Speaker 2: I got him one.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, he won't take it with him.
Speaker 3: Oh, I've got my kids trained to take pepper spray
Speaker 3: with them when they're out wandering around at night.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean Sonny's you know, over
Speaker 1: six feet tall, and he's eighteen now and stuff.
Speaker 2: And he's not that far from his friends.
Speaker 1: His friends all live so close, especially in this new house,
Speaker 1: they're very close by, right, so he can just walk
Speaker 1: over and to their house and then just walk home.
Speaker 3: Well, we have a lot of like really nosy neighbors
Speaker 3: who can be very persistent, and I feel like, you know,
Speaker 3: you could tell them like, hey, i'm kind of busier.
Speaker 3: I'm listening to a podcast, but they don't listen. So
Speaker 3: sometimes just a little quick spray of pepper spray, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's there, you go can ward them off. And then
Speaker 3: it's also preventative because then they might think twice before
Speaker 3: going like, hey, what's up, like nice weather we've been having.
Speaker 3: Then they're like, maybe not with her because she's pepper
Speaker 3: sprayed me.
Speaker 1: That's funny because I was Anthony was like, uh, he
Speaker 1: had a T shirt on with these guys on it,
Speaker 1: and I was asked him about it. It said blink
Speaker 1: one eighty two, but it wasn't three faces that are
Speaker 1: blink one eighty two And he goes, oh, he goes,
Speaker 1: you don't get it, and I said no, and he goes,
Speaker 1: then you don't watch Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen that show?
Speaker 3: I've seen it, but like a long time ago, but.
Speaker 2: He loves it and he and then he showed have
Speaker 2: you seen it?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but a long time ago, the early like
Speaker 4: four or five seasons, which I think were about like
Speaker 4: ten years ago, maybe longer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So he showed me two episodes last night before
Speaker 1: we went to bed, and one of them they moved
Speaker 1: into the suburbs and the neighbor was just nosy and
Speaker 1: the guy just had enough of him and like threw
Speaker 1: his commuter and mug at him and oh like.
Speaker 2: Just flipped out on him. So reminded me of that.
Speaker 2: But it's cool.
Speaker 3: It was the blink. It's just it.
Speaker 1: Once you watch the show, it kind of makes sense
Speaker 1: cause they're it's kind of like watching improv actors. You know,
Speaker 1: there's like lunch great guy and the other one are
Speaker 1: like really over the top characters, but it's really witty
Speaker 1: and funny and smart and uh. I Then after seeing
Speaker 1: and getting to know the characters, then it kind of
Speaker 1: made sense, Like they're posting his blank what aytail, but
Speaker 1: they're not I see a T shirt? Because they're these
Speaker 1: crazy characters, right. And Danny DeVito's one of the day,
Speaker 1: he's like the main character.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And Kristin Olsen plays the is the woman in that show,
Speaker 3: and she also plays in Hacks. She plays Gene Smart's
Speaker 3: character's daughter. Oh she's she's really funny in that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: she's a really funny actress.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they very all of them. The cast is great,
Speaker 1: really funny, and the writing's funny. I only watched two episodes,
Speaker 1: but I was like, oh, okay, I'm I'm hooked.
Speaker 2: I'm in Yeah.
Speaker 3: See, I can't go back to shows that There's been
Speaker 3: too many seasons, too many seasons. It was hard enough
Speaker 3: to do Breaking Breaking Bad, you know, because those shows
Speaker 3: came out when the Twin we had had twins, my
Speaker 3: life changed so much. I had such a different like
Speaker 3: I was into football, was I kept up on things.
Speaker 3: It's like I went into some kind of black hole
Speaker 3: in the early years of the Twins where I just
Speaker 3: couldn't I was tired all the time. I could not
Speaker 3: watch some of these big shows that came out. Breaking
Speaker 3: Bad was one of them, and everyone was talking about it.
Speaker 3: Oh and then The Shield had been out for a while,
Speaker 3: and I freaking loved that show. But I think we
Speaker 3: stopped it. We had to stop watching it. And then
Speaker 3: it was later when the Twins got older, we were like,
Speaker 3: let's watch all of The Shield, like from start to finish.
Speaker 3: I loved that that show.
Speaker 2: So it still holds up.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know, because it now again. When we
Speaker 3: watched it, the Twins were a little older, but it
Speaker 3: was still years ago. It was still sorry, at least
Speaker 3: eight years ago or longer. But then Breaking Bad, it
Speaker 3: was just like, oh my god. We kept trying to
Speaker 3: watch the first season when the Twins were a little
Speaker 3: and we'd get through like a couple episodes, but then
Speaker 3: we'd forget to watch it for a while and then
Speaker 3: I'd be like, now we got to start over because
Speaker 3: I don't remember what happened. And then at some point
Speaker 3: we were like, we're doing this, We're gonna commit, and
Speaker 3: then we watched the whole thing. Another one that's like
Speaker 3: that is The Wire. I never watched The Wire.
Speaker 2: I never watched The Wire. If you watch The Wire,
Speaker 2: of course it's good.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's great.
Speaker 3: We've tried it. So John and I have tried it
Speaker 3: a bunch of times and we can't get hooked in
Speaker 3: what What's wrong? Times?
Speaker 4: It just takes a show a couple of times to
Speaker 4: get into it. Like with Breaking Bad, I think it
Speaker 4: took me like three tries before I really got hooked
Speaker 4: into it. And I mean, it's my favorite show of
Speaker 4: all time. So once I got hooked, I was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was breaking bad.
Speaker 1: I got hooked really quick and I but I watched
Speaker 1: it after it was over, and every I've done that
Speaker 1: now with a couple shows, like everybody talks about how
Speaker 1: great it is, and I think that was another show
Speaker 1: when my kids were little. One of the other shows,
Speaker 1: Game of Thrones, that everybody was talking about, and I
Speaker 1: never and I was like, I'm not into dragons and
Speaker 1: fantasy in any way, you know. But then when it ended,
Speaker 1: so many people I respect that were like, like James
Speaker 1: baby Doll Dixon.
Speaker 2: I was talking to him.
Speaker 1: He's like, Baby, you think I'm into these fantasy shit
Speaker 1: dragons and shit, I'm not into it either, but you
Speaker 1: gotta watch it. It's fucking phenomenal, you know. So I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, let me try it. But the
Speaker 1: other thing is I didn't have anybody to watch it with.
Speaker 1: Everybody else is watching with people, so they can, you know,
Speaker 1: bounce it off, like what's going on here?
Speaker 2: This story?
Speaker 1: There's a million storylines, and so I didn't have anybody.
Speaker 1: But my nephew Nicholas was like, answer, Lynnette, any questions
Speaker 1: you have, text me. So I would text him late
Speaker 1: at night and then the next morning he'd give me
Speaker 1: the answer, so that helped, and then I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: this is a great show. Meanwhile, it's been over like
Speaker 1: two years about that point.
Speaker 3: I'm always curious as to how these kinds of shows
Speaker 3: come about because I'm so simple in what I like.
Speaker 3: I'm like, give me a show where it's like, it's
Speaker 3: about like this relationship. You know, this girl meets a
Speaker 3: guy and like all the fighting that happens at the
Speaker 3: beginning of the relationship until it's like, well, there, won't
Speaker 3: they get to get That's all I need? And then
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that sounds good, pretty easy to pitch.
Speaker 3: I don't need. And then there's like a king and
Speaker 3: that king have like eight k sons and then the
Speaker 3: sons all I'm like, yeah, I can't yeah, but how
Speaker 3: did those get pitched? Like why do you need all that? Still, like,
Speaker 3: I don't know. I guess development executives are way smarter
Speaker 3: than me and can see have some forethought to like
Speaker 3: what's going to be a good show. But imagine trying
Speaker 3: to pitch Game of Throne.
Speaker 1: Right, well, I think it was a book, right, yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was books. Yeah, which that's always a good start.
Speaker 1: I could start there, but uh, Yeah. Like the other
Speaker 1: thing too was you know you we don't. It doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like you have these anymore. But these big shows
Speaker 1: that came along, it's like people the excitement was watching
Speaker 1: it once a week and then talking about it with
Speaker 1: your friends. And that was the fun when I was working,
Speaker 1: you know, that's what we would do, you know, talk
Speaker 1: about it the next day, can't wait to then you know,
Speaker 1: cliffhanger and talk about it next week. Now it's like
Speaker 1: everybody just binge watches everything and it's like, oh, I'm
Speaker 1: not at the end yet. I'm only on season three
Speaker 1: and it's kind of lost. It's it's excitement that way.
Speaker 3: Well, that's why it's interesting that like Max and Netflix
Speaker 3: even some of them are doing are doing a rollout,
Speaker 3: well not Netflix, more Max.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Amazon, Amazon and Max will do rollouts weekly.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think they're trying to recapture that, you know.
Speaker 3: But some people are like like you and me that
Speaker 3: were like, well let me let let me let it
Speaker 3: be over so that I can just watch the whole thing.
Speaker 3: We're still figuring out ways to binge it.
Speaker 2: Are you still watching Love Is Blind? UK?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's done, it's done. Oh the finale is on today. Okay,
Speaker 3: so we're recording today on a Monday. Holy shit finale.
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna air though, at nine pm tonight,
Speaker 3: so I will. I will watch it, probably after I
Speaker 3: watch The Bachelor, because you know, I have to watch
Speaker 3: The Bachelor and the record that tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Now, would you say it's like one of the better seasons.
Speaker 3: These things are always like candy to me. It's like,
Speaker 3: while I'm watching it, I'm like, oh my god, I
Speaker 3: want to see every episode. Well, here's the thing. When
Speaker 3: you get to the wedding episodes, I fast forward through
Speaker 3: the entire thing, like I get invested, and then I
Speaker 3: make my predictions and I'm like, oh, I think this
Speaker 3: couple's going to get married. I think this one's not.
Speaker 3: But then I don't care about it.
Speaker 2: Don't try their dressage dresses.
Speaker 3: I do not care about the whole day of the
Speaker 3: wedding because I'm like, it doesn't matter if they say no,
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter that I watched twenty minutes of them
Speaker 3: going like I I'm really excited. This could be the best,
Speaker 3: this could be the rest of my life. I'm putting
Speaker 3: on my dress. I'm talking to my dad like I
Speaker 3: don't care shut up and fast forward even through the
Speaker 3: vows I don't care. I get to the end, and
Speaker 3: then when they say the thing and now is the
Speaker 3: time that we ask is if Love is blind? That's
Speaker 3: where I come in. And then I go, oh, okay,
Speaker 3: I thought so, right, But then it's the reunion. That's
Speaker 3: what I'm all about. Lynette and I. You guys might
Speaker 3: recall went to the reunion of the Love Is Blind taping. First.
Speaker 3: It kind of sucked because right, but if you recall,
Speaker 3: it crashed, so it couldn't. We waited for hours in
Speaker 3: the cold studio, and also we got no juice because
Speaker 3: it was live. So what everybody saw was what we saw, yes,
Speaker 3: all the only difference is that we saw them like
Speaker 3: sitting on the couch, we can see who seemed actually
Speaker 3: kind of happy, but no questions were asked.
Speaker 1: That weren't aired, right, Yeah, it was tortuous sitting in
Speaker 1: that studio in the freezing cold.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And they kept going dunung okay, and they kept going, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna start, and you'd hear the beginning of Netflix
Speaker 1: going du dung, and then you'd wait and wait and
Speaker 1: they go, all right, we're not it's not ready yet
Speaker 1: still crashing.
Speaker 3: And they took our phones. Oh that's right, So we
Speaker 3: had no phone, no phones, so we had to talk
Speaker 3: to each other.
Speaker 2: And they think we were starting to get hungry.
Speaker 3: We were starving.
Speaker 2: We were starving.

Speaker 2: any thoughts?

Speaker 4: wouldn't want it like either really hot or really cold

Speaker 4: cold and windy and I don't want that. But yeah,
Speaker 4: I guess a spring would probably be preferable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's nice Carl's Bad. I used to go there
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. We used to go for
Speaker 1: camping and stuff. My friends would go camping, but not
Speaker 1: my family, right. Yeah, that's it's nice down there, very nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, my family used to go camping and I hated it,
Speaker 3: really didn't like it. No, because well, no, I don't
Speaker 3: really remember. I would tell you about how because the
Speaker 3: road trip part I would just be bored and get carsick,
Speaker 3: and like my little brother and sister really annoyed me,
Speaker 3: you know, and just having so much work involved, and
Speaker 3: like packing up all the coolers. I still remember the
Speaker 3: taste of like food that came out of a cooler
Speaker 3: that had been frozen, but then kind of thought and
Speaker 3: like just not a good and the taste of like
Speaker 3: canteen water, and just like it just was like, why
Speaker 3: don't we just stay home.
Speaker 1: I could read a book, I could sleep out in
Speaker 1: the backyard. And now our the high school, I think
Speaker 1: it was more And when we were in junior high,
Speaker 1: the school that I went to, the Magnet School, would
Speaker 1: always at the end of the year go like camping,
Speaker 1: have a camping trip, and I used to look forward
Speaker 1: to it because I'd be well, go away from my
Speaker 1: family and just be able to go hang out with
Speaker 1: my friends for a few days with the school and.
Speaker 2: Loved it, loved it. But I never went on one
Speaker 2: vacation with my family.
Speaker 1: Not well, once when I was like seven, they took
Speaker 1: me to Cleave one to visit my relatives.
Speaker 2: Other than that, never really never went on a vacation ever.
Speaker 3: No wow. Yeah, And just as far as traveling, just
Speaker 3: the one trip to Cleveland.
Speaker 1: Just the one trip to Cleveland, I was the first
Speaker 1: time I got on a plane after that. At that
Speaker 1: point was when I was like in my early twenties
Speaker 1: working at an entertainment company. When I went for Nappi
Speaker 1: convention in Miami, that was like this first time as
Speaker 1: an adult being on an airplane.
Speaker 2: I used to be so scared to fly too.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: I was terrified of flying for a long time.
Speaker 3: But so did you feel, because I know I did
Speaker 3: when you were growing up, like seeing all these kids
Speaker 3: going like on ski weekends and stuff, or Hawaii. It's
Speaker 3: a big thing to take your kids to Hawaii. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I was always like, wow, I'll never never poor.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: So on my street every Fourth of July weekend or
Speaker 1: when Fourth of July came around, there was my next
Speaker 1: door neighbor. Ray had a big camper that my mom
Speaker 1: hated and planted palm trees to try and hide it.
Speaker 1: So they had a camper. They had three kids. Then
Speaker 1: the people across the street, they were good friends with them.
Speaker 1: They had two kids, so I was friends with both family.
Speaker 1: I hated Fourth of July because every year would come around,
Speaker 1: they invite me to go with them, and I wasn't
Speaker 1: allowed to go, and they all left town and they
Speaker 1: were all gone, and they would be camping together, and
Speaker 1: I was so upset and miserable, Like what I remember
Speaker 1: crying going why can't I just go with them?
Speaker 2: Why?
Speaker 1: Like my parents were weirdly overprotective at some times, and
Speaker 1: it's like, can't let me go camping with the next
Speaker 1: door neighbors both of them?
Speaker 2: What the fuck? And then why not?
Speaker 1: You guys don't even take me on vacation? How might
Speaker 1: let the neighbors take me?
Speaker 3: And would the neighbors ever say, like, who will ask
Speaker 3: your parents?
Speaker 1: They thought my mom was crazy, so they got it.
Speaker 1: They were like, Okay, we don't need any interaction with
Speaker 1: Helen Paradise.
Speaker 2: We're cool. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I wasn't ever every year was I hated it because
Speaker 1: all my friends were gone.
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, but I needed today. It's my birthday today, Yeah,
Speaker 3: today's your birthday.
Speaker 2: I forgot.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, happy birthday.
Speaker 2: Whatter you thought about it when I was thinking about
Speaker 2: fourth of July? Bitch you buried?
Speaker 3: What are you doing for your birthday?
Speaker 2: Oh? I?
Speaker 1: Uh, Suzanne is coming over and then like around three,
Speaker 1: because she wants to see the kids, Anthony's.
Speaker 2: Kids, because she used.
Speaker 1: To babysit Anthony with me and Anthony was her favorite,
Speaker 1: like I would take Nicholas or Megan. She always bonded
Speaker 1: with Anthony. In fact, Anthony and Sam his wife, lived
Speaker 1: with Suzanne when they first were married and get like
Speaker 1: living out here in California. They shared a how Suzanne,
Speaker 1: so she's pretty close with them, and she's never met
Speaker 1: their their son. She met the daughter like when she
Speaker 1: was two, but she's never she hasn't seen the daughters
Speaker 1: now six and Wesley's like three. So she's coming over
Speaker 1: and we're just.
Speaker 2: Gonna hang out.
Speaker 1: Like Anthony kept going, let's go to dinner for your birthday,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't want to go sit in
Speaker 1: a restaurant, Like, let's just hang out at my house, Suzanne.
Speaker 1: And by the way, Suzanne only has tonight because she's
Speaker 1: taking Gracie on Tuesday to New York to drop her off.
Speaker 3: Where's she going to school?
Speaker 2: I think Pace is the name.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, okay, this is just a coincidence. Yeah, so
Speaker 3: you know my friend who has a gracy, right, my
Speaker 3: Suzanne who has a Gracie, whose kit is just is
Speaker 3: at NYU, just moved her kid into NYU.
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: So they must be the same age. Yeah, because her daughter, well,
Speaker 3: her daughter was always one year younger than my daughter than.
Speaker 2: Elbie Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, so.
Speaker 3: She'd be like one year older than No, but I
Speaker 3: guess the same as your kids, because it was a
Speaker 3: year and a half. Yeah, because your kids are only
Speaker 3: one My kids are about when one grade level behind
Speaker 3: elbe yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, because they just graduated and
Speaker 3: Elver graduated last year. Right, yeah, so they're the same
Speaker 3: age as my Gracie, isn't that?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: And I remember Suzanne was giving birth to Gracie and
Speaker 1: I was like trying very hard not to throw up
Speaker 1: because I had like morning sickness.
Speaker 2: Oh with my kids.
Speaker 1: Right, so my kids came nine months later after Gracie, Okay,
Speaker 1: nine months older. So yeah, they're dropping her off in
Speaker 1: New York. Of course, Suzanne like that's her one and
Speaker 1: only child all the way across the country. But but
Speaker 1: she has family out there that in the city where
Speaker 1: she'll be able to see a lot that she's close with,
Speaker 1: so that's good. But anyway, yeah, Suzanne's coming over later,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna hang.
Speaker 3: Out, so just her and not Jodie.
Speaker 2: No, no, no.
Speaker 1: You know Suzanne, like I said, she grew up with
Speaker 1: my nieces and nephews right right. It's you know, Anthony
Speaker 1: was even telling me, He's like, we were watching old
Speaker 1: videos at my dad's and we would see you at
Speaker 1: the birthday parties. You and Auntie Suzanne in a corner
Speaker 1: too cool for school, both hungover, like we could see
Speaker 1: in the video like there there's Auntielyn and Auntie Suzanne
Speaker 1: hungover on it. Because there I was like twenty one
Speaker 1: when Wendy was throwing these big birthday parties at her
Speaker 1: house in Canyon Country, and Suzanna and I would go
Speaker 1: all the time, just being around a bunch of little
Speaker 1: kids at age twenty one, right yeah, so.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I'm excited for Oh my god, do you
Speaker 3: know what I you know what I remembered the other day.
Speaker 3: So my sister in law, so my brother and sister's
Speaker 3: kids are so they're their oldest kid is three years
Speaker 3: younger than the twins, so there's a pretty a big so.
Speaker 3: So their son is turning fourteen at the August thirty first,
Speaker 3: So like in a few days he'll be fourteen and
Speaker 3: then their daughter is ten. But when their son, I
Speaker 3: was kind of in the thick of it with my
Speaker 3: kids when their kid was a little, when their son
Speaker 3: was like a little kid, but not in the age range.
Speaker 3: They weren't old enough to be like the big the
Speaker 3: really older cousins. But do you remember that time that
Speaker 3: they had a birthday party? So it just was a
Speaker 3: little bit off for hanging out right, right, So I
Speaker 3: didn't see them quite as much when their kids were
Speaker 3: little and they had moved to like Valencia, But anyway,
Speaker 3: they do you remember when they did a party at
Speaker 3: like Scooter's Jungle And I totally forgot about it, and
Speaker 3: it was a big deal. My sister in law was
Speaker 3: so mad. Well, I was just kind of scattered, And
Speaker 3: I remember that she would always have these It just
Speaker 3: reminded me because she would have had these big, elaborate
Speaker 3: birthdays every year and always invite us, And this one
Speaker 3: year it was like the birth I think I thought
Speaker 3: it was at a different time. I don't remember it was.
Speaker 3: I spaced on the time. Okay, here's what it was.
Speaker 3: By the time I remembered that the party was happening,
Speaker 3: it was. It was basically like almost over or like
Speaker 3: I thought it was at let's just say two, but
Speaker 3: it really was at eleven. So then I realized at
Speaker 3: like one o'clock, and I remember calling. She was like oh.
Speaker 3: She must have been like where are you? And then
Speaker 3: I was like wait, I thought it's it, and then
Speaker 3: she was like, no, it's almost over. And then I
Speaker 3: was like, oh my god, I think she's still a
Speaker 3: little bit mad. To this day. I thought that it
Speaker 3: might have happened more than once, like it was. You know,
Speaker 3: I'm bad with that.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 1: Remember we used to talk about it back in the day,
Speaker 1: like they would be invited to a birthday party at
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, jungle gym somewhere, and I
Speaker 1: would go and show up and there's nobody there and
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, that parties tomorrow, and I was like
Speaker 1: and then Stunny and Italia are like wait what, no
Speaker 1: party right, And then I'd have to take them to
Speaker 1: the park or something.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, go get ice cream.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's our punishment.
Speaker 2: Yes, Oh, it happened a couple times for me too.
Speaker 2: Not like those.
Speaker 3: Indoor play places. There's one that was near us called
Speaker 3: the play Source in the valley, and it happened to
Speaker 3: me at least two or maybe three times where I
Speaker 3: brought them there on the wrong day, so there's no party,
Speaker 3: got the gift, you know, and now you're already at
Speaker 3: play source. The kids are young, they're all jack up
Speaker 3: to go to a party. So then you have to pay.
Speaker 3: You're like, well, it was going to be free because
Speaker 3: it was someone else's birthday and they were going to
Speaker 3: get free snacks and pizza and some cake. Now I
Speaker 3: got to pay twelve dollars for them to go plan
Speaker 3: some shitty you know in the habit trail thing, get
Speaker 3: stuck up. There no other parents to be watching looking
Speaker 3: after the kids, you know, And I'm like, oh, now
Speaker 3: I got to pay, and then still come back and
Speaker 3: then it's the next day.
Speaker 2: Or the worst was. I get there and they go,
Speaker 2: oh that party was yesterday. Oh that's the only thing. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Then they got to go to school, and the kids
Speaker 2: like where were you two?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 3: Then you got to still give them the present because
Speaker 3: you bought it already. Yeah, unless you lucked out and
Speaker 3: you didn't buy it until you just planned to buy it,
Speaker 3: But either way, you had already bought something. Because now
Speaker 3: you're at the party.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 1: And then it's like this should walk of shame, you know,
Speaker 1: like you'd see the parents.
Speaker 2: Where were you on Saturday?
Speaker 3: Yes, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I was there on Sunday though. It's just someone What
Speaker 2: happened to you? Kaylan? Probably not no, not that one.
Speaker 3: No, not Kaylin. I know he doesn't get it, don't.
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 3: What's hard to buying gifts when the kids are young
Speaker 3: for other people's kids, right, there should be some kind
Speaker 3: of a thing they really should have, like a registry,
Speaker 3: but for like kid's birthday parties, because it would just
Speaker 3: make it easier and have like cheap stuff. But like
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, because I'm not going to
Speaker 3: get your kid like you know, the Barbie's Dream House. Yes,
Speaker 3: but like say, like, hey, this is a party for
Speaker 3: seven year old they're really into like Barbie. Can't go
Speaker 3: wrong if you get them some Barbie or you know,
Speaker 3: my generation doll or whatever. They like dolls, they like
Speaker 3: Barbie or whatever. They like hot wheels they like. Give
Speaker 3: me a hint, yes, because they're too young for gift cards, right,
Speaker 3: because kids at a certain age don't care about cash
Speaker 3: or gift cards. They get to a certain age and
Speaker 3: that's all they want. Yeah, right, and they like when
Speaker 3: they got to a certain age, oh my god, give
Speaker 3: them some.
Speaker 2: Birthdays were so much easier. Yeah, even like.
Speaker 3: By I would say sixth grade, a twenty dollars bill
Speaker 3: goes at they're happy to get that, right, But any
Speaker 3: darker than that Starbucks, Like they're happy to have their
Speaker 3: own money. Yeah, but any younger than that, they don't care.
Speaker 3: They're like, where's my toy? You know. And it's so
Speaker 3: easy to disappoint, you know, or to just not to
Speaker 3: get or when your kids would have a birthday and
Speaker 3: then they get a bunch of crap that's like not
Speaker 3: they're not really interested in. Then you just got to
Speaker 3: regift it.
Speaker 2: Well that's what I would do.
Speaker 1: I would have you know, they would get these gifts
Speaker 1: and stuff and it's like it was either too old
Speaker 1: for them to use yet they're still young, or I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, they're never going to play with this,
Speaker 1: So I would put them in the garage and then
Speaker 1: I would have it backup right yeah right, and then
Speaker 1: wrap it in toilet paper and.
Speaker 3: You know, and it put it in the Trader Joe's bag.
Speaker 3: Happy birthday, peop No but I uh, I always love
Speaker 3: the moms that would, even a little bit too young,
Speaker 3: give you like the Amazon gift card or a Starbucks card.
Speaker 3: I'd be like, genius, thank you, like they get it,
Speaker 3: you know. Even though some people felt like, oh, it's
Speaker 3: just so impersonal to give a gift card. I was
Speaker 3: always like, hell no, a Michael's gift card, thank you?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I loved Michaels. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that
Speaker 1: was the best.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was good with that. I think that that's the target.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: You know what is also great Quints Quints.
Speaker 1: We love Quints, and you know, sweater weather is upon us,
Speaker 1: and there's no better place you're gonna get a good
Speaker 1: deal other than Quince for nice Kashmir sweater. They start
Speaker 1: from fifty bucks. And what we love about Quins is
Speaker 1: they come in all different colors to choose from, which
Speaker 1: is great, and all different types of styles of Kashmir.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you're looking for like the lounge wear,
Speaker 3: the performance shorts for the gym or whatever, Quins is
Speaker 3: still the place to go. Doesn't matter that it's winter,
Speaker 3: they still have them.
Speaker 4: This is their performance shirt that I'm wearing right now.
Speaker 3: I love it. Yeah, wear it. All the time. I
Speaker 3: love her.
Speaker 1: I have I have their jogger pants which I love.
Speaker 1: I have the wrap dress. They also have jewelry and
Speaker 1: things for the house as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the.
Speaker 1: Nice thing is that they partner directly with top factories,
Speaker 1: which let's uh, Quince cuts out the cost of the
Speaker 1: middleman and passes the savings onto us, so making switching
Speaker 1: seasons a breeze with Quince's high quality closet essentials. Go

Speaker 1: dot com slash f co ol M.
Speaker 3: So, I just wanted to give you a little update
Speaker 3: on my involvement at my kids' school. Yes, trying, It's
Speaker 3: so hard, I don't I am. I can be such
Speaker 3: a people pleaser, you know. And remember I usually I
Speaker 3: usually save this for Patreon, but I'm going to try
Speaker 3: to keep this as general as possible as some of
Speaker 3: you who listen to Patreon may know. I am the
Speaker 3: co chair of our kids of the fundraising committee. I
Speaker 3: warn them that I'm not good at this. Like I said, listen,
Speaker 3: I'm better. I like, I have some leadership ability, but
Speaker 3: when it comes to stuff like this, a lot of
Speaker 3: it feels over my head and I get upset by
Speaker 3: all the emails and all the things that I feel like,
Speaker 3: oh am I supposed to answer this. I have no
Speaker 3: idea what they're talking about, you know, chatter up and
Speaker 3: all these websites that they're going to use to do
Speaker 3: the fundraising. I'm like, just tell me what to do
Speaker 3: and I'll do it, okay. But somehow I tried to quit, remember,
Speaker 3: and I got like pulled back in. They're like no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 3: we really need you. So they brought me back in
Speaker 3: and I was like, okay, but I'm not that good
Speaker 3: at this. So here's what it is. I get emailed
Speaker 3: all the time, and I every single time, I'm like,
Speaker 3: do I have to answer that? Like some days there's
Speaker 3: like twenty emails in a day, and I'm like, I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't know what's expected of me. I don't know
Speaker 3: if they're getting irritated that I don't answer. But a
Speaker 3: lot of this stuff is like so I thought that
Speaker 3: the one thing that I would be good at is
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, I will be the way. I will
Speaker 3: reach out to a lot of businesses and ask for
Speaker 3: like stuff for donations for we're having this big fundraiser
Speaker 3: in October. And I was like, I'm good at that.
Speaker 3: I get I think I have connections and I can
Speaker 3: I can get some stuff right. Oh my god, it's
Speaker 3: so hard. I went I spent like two hours looking
Speaker 3: up businesses. Well I was trying. I was like, you
Speaker 3: know what be really easy to get, I think is
Speaker 3: like some passes to the comedy store, the improv. So
Speaker 3: I went on like the website and I'm like, here's
Speaker 3: a general information email. I email them, Hey, like, my
Speaker 3: kids are having this thing. It's a really great school.
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah. Can I get some tickets? You know,
Speaker 3: nothing crickets. Then I was like, here's an easy one.
Speaker 3: My kid's been doing the groundlings for years, Like, how
Speaker 3: about some passes for the groundlings? You know, great nothing
Speaker 3: crickets can't get home, you know. Oh, in fact, the
Speaker 3: groundlings when I called them and they were like, oh yeah,
Speaker 3: we sometimes do that. Here's the email to send. Here's
Speaker 3: the email address, sent it specifically to the guy crafted
Speaker 3: it thought about it. I tried to get tickets to
Speaker 3: I Fly, which is like that skydiving thing at the
Speaker 3: Universal I went to. I'm when I tell you that
Speaker 3: I probably sent out like fifteen emails to people no response.
Speaker 1: I feel like, whoever it doesn't surprise me because when
Speaker 1: you send these emails, it seems to me that probably
Speaker 1: on the other end is nobody or somebody that's not
Speaker 1: really enthusiastic about if their job is checking emails to,
Speaker 1: you know, facilitate getting tickets to whatever it is.
Speaker 2: I bet that they're not their have I don't know.
Speaker 1: They seems to me it's just kind of they'll read
Speaker 1: it and then just sit on it for a while,
Speaker 1: and I'll get back to it and then never get
Speaker 1: back to it.
Speaker 2: It just doesn't seem like people.
Speaker 1: For some reason. I just feel like whoever's on the
Speaker 1: other end is not doing you know.
Speaker 3: I guess I just thought it would be easy, because
Speaker 3: you know, when you go to other kids, when you
Speaker 3: go to school functions, there's always these awesome items that
Speaker 3: they have, and I'm always thinking, like, where do they
Speaker 3: get them? Well, obviously they're giving tickets to things I
Speaker 3: emailed like the Pantagious. I was like, would be so
Speaker 3: cool to auction off like a couple of tickets to
Speaker 3: like the Pantagious.
Speaker 2: Ye, that would be great.
Speaker 3: It would be great if one person would it back
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I also think maybe it would might be easier
Speaker 1: to get if you actually talk to somebody on the
Speaker 1: phone rather than just to send an email to Nowhere'sville,
Speaker 1: you know, right.
Speaker 3: I feel like, well I tried that. That's what I try.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Like, for instance, I called Burke Williams. I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: that seems like something I've seen a lot of on
Speaker 3: a lot of auctions. You know, I called Burke Williams.
Speaker 3: I talked to somebody. They're like, oh, that's the corporate office,
Speaker 3: but you have to you have to email. They don't
Speaker 3: have a person that answers the phone for like the
Speaker 3: main like just the because I call the specific Burke
Speaker 3: Williams and they're like, oh, we don't do that. That
Speaker 3: has to come from corporate and you got to email.
Speaker 3: So and that happened quite a few times. Or like
Speaker 3: calling the comedy store. A lot of these places nobody
Speaker 3: answers the phone anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3: That you get a phone tree and they go leave
Speaker 3: a message, and then if you just choose a message,
Speaker 3: they'll go, this voice box is full or what. So.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's a tough job. Yeah you would think.
Speaker 3: I thought i'd be so good at it. Yeah, turns
Speaker 3: out you're.
Speaker 2: Good at it. It's just there. It's not your fault
Speaker 2: that on the other end there's nobody there.
Speaker 3: But how are these people getting these items?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: To me, maybe especially in this town, they probably have
Speaker 1: a friend there or something, right, you know, a connection.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Well, Okay, So I wanted to get tickets to the
Speaker 3: Magic Castle. So I was like, that shouldn't be hard.
Speaker 3: I have a like, I have good friends who are
Speaker 3: literal magicians who work at the Magic Castle. So I
Speaker 3: hit up my friend who's been a magician there for
Speaker 3: twenty years. He was like, I can't help you. He's like,
Speaker 3: they're super cheap about it, and he goes, and even
Speaker 3: if I got you, like a guest pass to go,
Speaker 3: you're still gonna have to they make you buy dinner,
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to pay for parking, Like they don't
Speaker 3: do any kind of like VIP. But I feel like
Speaker 3: I've seen that. I feel like I've seen people get
Speaker 3: it and he's like maybe, but you'd have to ask
Speaker 3: like the owner, right, and I can't do I can't
Speaker 3: get you get it for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what about like local yogurt shops.
Speaker 2: Or yeah, I could do that stuff.
Speaker 3: But like I thought i'd be the hero, right coming
Speaker 3: in with like the big they like, oh, I got
Speaker 3: you backstage passes to something like I thought, like, I'll
Speaker 3: just ask for that people I know people, No, not
Speaker 3: so much. I don't really know that many people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, too bad.
Speaker 1: Like the good old days at ABC, they gave tickets
Speaker 1: to Disneyland like twice a year. You know, you would
Speaker 1: get like two four tickets twice a year or two
Speaker 1: tickets depends on how many people are in your family
Speaker 1: kind of thing. And those were nice because then I
Speaker 1: could I would donate those to people like my friends
Speaker 1: that were doing what you were doing. But now they've
Speaker 1: changed it and even like Suzanne is helping Anthony get
Speaker 1: to Disneyland, you still have to like they have to pay.
Speaker 1: They get a little discount. But you know, those were
Speaker 1: the days, but it is that is a tough That
Speaker 1: is a tough job.
Speaker 3: I mean, our friend Nikki who listens to our show
Speaker 3: who I Love. She owns the restaurant Truckston's, which is
Speaker 3: in Santa Monica. There's there. It's way on the west
Speaker 3: side Torrance. And she gave me a thousand dollars in
Speaker 3: gift cards for that restaurant.
Speaker 2: That's nice.
Speaker 3: So that's really nice. I mean, I don't don't get
Speaker 3: me wrong, I have gotten some stuff, but I just
