by the way, Sadie, I'm so proud of her. She's
been driving around.
Speaker 1: I love that she's been.
Speaker 3: It's been a little bit forced, as I told you,
because apparently Xander is treating her like a chauffeur and going, hey,
can you take me here? Can you take me there?
And I think I told you this last week? She complains,
but I'm like, it's good for you. She's getting more confident.
She's been driving to school.
Speaker 1: Wow, that's great.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And we offer, We're like, if you if
you need us to drive you and pick you up,
it's fine, and she's like, I got it.
Speaker 1: That's great. I love that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm kind of proud of her for that. So
so it's Saturday evening. It's kind of early Sadie's like, hey,
my friend and I are going to go because we're
going to a party tonight and Xander's coming with us.
So I was like okay, and she's like, so, but
I need dad to drive us.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: So we were kind of up what we were doing now.
So keep in mind if you listen to our Tuesday show,
I was so bone freakin tired. Like my feet I
don't know if my feet have ever hurt that bad,
Like I had blisters on my feet just from walking
back and forth. My everything hurt, my legs hurt, my
back hurt. I was so done. Yeah, and if you
remember from last week, I'm like, move it. Even after
the whole thing's over, been there eight hours, I'm like
moving chairs back, Like where is everybody? They're not helping.
So finally, you know, I just was like fuck it,
I don't care. I'm leaving.
Speaker 1: Like I was like, it's not mye Like, yeah, well,
people got there early.
Speaker 3: I got there early, but I felt bad because some
of the other people that got there early were still there.
But I was like, dude, I gotta go. I had
people at home waiting to be walked. And then I
knew something about some party that was happening. I was
really too tired to think about it. But I was like, Okay,
there going to a party and John has to drive them.
So then we're going home and John said. John's like, yeah,
so the kids, so I have to drive them two
thousand Oaks, which not to be not to be SNL,
but like thousand Oaks is not that close to our house.
It's kind of far. So I was like thousand Oaks,
Like who do they know in thousand Oaks? So we
get home, I'm so tired, and I really haven't eaten
that much, but like I'm thinking, like am I going
to go try to get some food? Am I going
to order in? I'm so tired, I just want to
go to bed. So John's like, don't worry, I'll drive
them out two thousand Oaks. So say they're all they're
waiting to go, and they're like, we need to go
now because we got to get there early because we're
scared they're going to stop letting people in. And I'm like,
stop letting people in, you know, And of course they're like, yeah,
we get like an Instagram party close. It's Jamie Fox's
daughter's sweet sixteen part.
Speaker 2: Of somebody's whose kids went to that too, and it
is a big kashaw.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 2: It is a kashaw getting in and out, okay, and
his my friend's kid has gone I think two years
now in a row.
Speaker 1: It's a big thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh, it's a big thing. Every teenage girl in
the valley was at this thing. It turns out, so
I'm just like Jamie Fox's daughter. So Sadie's like, well,
my friend so and so is friends with a girl
who's really good friends with her. Name's like Annalise. I
think with Annalise. So I'm like, oh okay, Like they're
I was like, where is it. They're like I think
it's at his house. So I'm like okay. Like at
this point, I'm just like whatever, like go okay, have fun. Yeah,
So Xander's meeting his girlfriend there. She's going with a
group of her girlfriends. My kids are going like a
little bit later because we had just gotten home, right,
they go home, they change into costumes, they're ready to go.
I'm like, bye, have a good time, yah, And John's like,
don't worry, I'll take them both. I'll go both both ways,
both drives. Like I'll go out there and then okay.
So I'm like okay. So then I started getting texts
from John. At like like thirty minutes later, he's texting me.
He's like, this just the road there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: He's like, first of all, this is in like funny
Shadow Ranch, which is not this is like really not
even thousand Oaks. It's like way south. He goes, I'm
on some rural road. I have a picture of like
the traffic jam, which I could post on.
Speaker 1: I was just talking to my friend, uh over the week. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well yeah, it was yesterday and he was telling me
he was going to pick up his kids from this party.
Speaker 1: So there's no wife.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that looks like you're trying to get
into a state. She's showing me a picture. Yeah, the traffic.
It looks like Dodger Stadium traffic.
Speaker 3: Yes, so it's that's insane. Yeah. So he he's like,
I don't know what to do. He goes, I'm basically
stuck on this road and it's just like stop traffic. Right,
there's no Wi Fi. So at this time he's sending
me the pictures. I was getting them, but he's like,
it's not his way to drop them. This is not
his way to just take them there. So then he
gets there. Here's a picture. It's that's like hard to see,
but that's like that's outside, that's not has nothing to
do with the party. Yeah, it's like a concert venue.
It's like the forum. So but but at this point
understand that, like I'm in I'm laying in bed, still
fully dressed. But I'm like, okay, He's like, I don't
know how we're going to get there. He's like, I've
been sitting in So then eventually I'm getting like a
few updates. Then I just stopped getting updates from him
because he had no WiFi. Yeah, so apparently what happened
is he got he finally they're in the car. They're
stuck there. It took like forty five minutes to get
like a mile, you know, because they're just stop traffic.
So then he gets there, there's he said, there's just
kids everywhere. There's thousands of kids. It's not even at
the house. It's at this drop off point where they
get on shuttle buses. Now Sadie is now starting to
panic and she's like, I don't I don't want to
do this. Yeah, just take me home. But apparently Xander,
who's meeting up with his girlfriend. He's apparently already there
and Sadie's friend are like, oh, we'll be fine, like
let's just go, let's just go. So she's like all right.
So he drops him off, which I'm sorry, but I
was like, okay, but how were you thinking we were
going to be able to pick him up again? He's
like he had that internet and he goes, I don't know.
I guess I just figured they'd figure it out. So
I'm like, but I don't know this until he's back
close enough that he has WiFi again. Then he calls me.
He's like, oh my god, that was such a shit show.
He's like, I waited in this crazy line. I finally
was able to drop him off. He's like, there's all
these security guards. I rolled down the window. I'm like,
how I just want to drop them off, like I'm
not coming to this party. And I guess the security
guards were like, okay, well let him off, but then
you got to veer off, like don't go to the
parking lotder You're going to be stuck there. You're not
getting out. So they told him how he had to
make like some hair point turn, turn around, get back
to the main road, which also took time because there
were other cars that had just dropped off and ubers.
Speaker 1: You know, could you imagine if you drove them?
Speaker 3: No, well, what we were what we were imagining is
if Sadie had driven, because we didn't know. He's like,
I am just thank god that Sadie didn't drive there.
She would have had an absolute panic attack. Like he's like,
it would have been difficulty level ten, you know for
this new driver. But he's like, thank god it was
me driving. Okay. So he lets him off, he leaves.
I'm like, he goes, I just now have back reception.
So of course now I'm like, wait what so they
have no reception? I said. He's like yeah, I go, well,
how are we going to find him again? And then
he gives me It shows me the pictures of like
he's like, there were just see of thousands thousands of
pick the fuck that. This is not the party, by
the way, this is the spot, the drop off spot
where they're going to get on shuttle bus. Yes, so
I said, so there was no he goes, there is
no way to wait there to see if they're going
to get in. He goes I there were cars behind me.
I had to leave, so I was like, okay, So
now I'm racking my brain. I'm just okay. So then
I try to text Sadie. I'm like, hey, just seeing
if you have cell reception. Nothing doesn't. It's undelivered delivery
that it doesn't deliver. So then I text Xander and
it does deliver and it's in blue right, So I'm like, okay,
he does he has cell reception, but he's not answering me.
So I'm like, well, maybe it's just really loud, maybe
it's just crazy, maybe he's not checking his phone. Okay,
like maybe they have cell reception. But then like a
long time goes by and he never responds to me,
so I'm like and Sadie's text is still not delivered
at this point. So then I'm I'm starting to like
panic a little bit because I'm like, well, if they
didn't get into this thing, how are they going to
tell us that they need to get home. Xander supposedly
had an Uber app on his phone, but I'm like,
if he doesn't have reception, how's he gonna call an uber?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 3: So I'm starting to have like and I'm so tired.
Speaker 1: So there's no cell reception at the drop off place either,
because I.
Speaker 3: Know it's it's so far off the beaten path, it's down.
John said it was like remote.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Right, So okay, so this is what happens. So now
I'm just starting to get really nervous and I don't
know what to do. And John's like, I'm not like
freaking out, but I was like, I just don't feel comfortable,
Like we can't they can't contact us. We can't contact them.
How are we gonna go get him? There's no meat
And in my mind, I'm like, why didn't you just
like pick a meat spot, like just go just in case. Yeah,
but he's he said, there's just no way to do,
Like we're It's.
Speaker 2: Funny because I was talking to my friend who had
to pick up his kid goes to school with Jamie
Fox's kid. Oh really yeah, and so he so he's
gone like two years in a row, and the dad
went to uh yes, and so it was a it
was a shit show both Like last year, he remembers
trying to he didn't go to the party.
Speaker 1: He just dropped off. Okay, So what he.
Speaker 2: Did was he told his son this year, meeting you
at midnight, meet me at this one spot.
Speaker 1: Well, of course that doesn't. He's like, okay, got it.
Speaker 2: And he's not only picking up his son, but he's
picking up the other two friends that his son's with.
So he gets that he's in the same like it's
you're driving your drive.
Speaker 1: It's like there's traffic. It's just a fucking shit shot,
like going to a concert.
Speaker 2: And he goes to the spot and he's waiting and
he's giving it. Now it's a half an hour and
now sun shows up. But now he's supposed to take
the other two kids home. He's like, well, where's what's
his face? And what's his face? Well, one is on
his way, he's just taking a leak. Now he's gonna
meet he's coming. So then then that second kid shows up.
Now this other one kid is stuck at the party
and they don't They're like, we got lost, they got
we got separated.
Speaker 1: We couldn't find him.
Speaker 2: But he knows that at midnight he's supposed to come
and whatever.
Speaker 1: And now they're waiting and it was.
Speaker 3: Just to be responsible for another freaking kid.
Speaker 1: That's exactly exactly.
Speaker 2: And then the kid came showed up and he was
like buzzed, and he was like mouthing off a little bit,
like why do we got to leave so early and
stuff like that, and He's like, hey, I'm fucking e
didn't get home until like three o'clock in the morning,
picking the kid up at midnight because that's how long
it took to get in and out and no cell
service and it's just a fucking disaster.
Speaker 1: What do they do? Put this thing online?
Speaker 2: Like, is every kid in the San Fernando Valley im
united to Jamie Fox's party?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Why?
Speaker 3: Because they hire they have like a big club promoter. Yeah,
and then it just gets out it's on Instagram and
so okay, so okay, so no, no, no, no, that's
this is basically the story. Yeah, except that my kids
never got into the party. Spoiler alert, they didn't go
to the party. It was such a shit show. So
I'm starting to like.
Speaker 2: Get I would have been if I were you two
after the day you had and we.
Speaker 3: Had we had no meeting spot, no meeting spot. So
John's like, well, should I just go out there and
try to find them? And I was like no, well
that doesn't seem to make sense. So I have this.
I can't think of anybody, but I have this bright
idea that I do have. Xander's girlfriend's mom. Okay, I
have her text I've I think I met her once,
like we said hi, and she seems really nice. But
we've texted a couple of times. So I text her
and I was like, hey, like now, but by the way,
I'm thinking, like, there's no way Xander was even able
to meet up with her, Like she's not with my
kids they were meeting up with her. She was with
her own friends. So I'm like, this is already a
long shot because I don't know if I don't know
if they found each other in this enormous crowd. So
I text her and I was like, hey, do you
have cele reception with your kid? Let's call her Jay.
I'm like, do you are you in contact with Jay?
Like do you have cell reception? And she's like, oh,
I don't know. And I said because apparently, like there's
no cell reception down there, and I cannot get a
hold of my kids, and it's like supposed to be
a big mess down there. Like I probably would have
said Kashaw, like she wouldn't have gotten it, you know,
then I would have had to explain which Kashaw means,
and then I would have had to tell her I
have a podcast and then she might listen to it.
Speaker 1: So that's all and now that road now.
Speaker 3: So I said. She was like what, I No, I
didn't know this, and I said yeah, apparently, and then
I start. I was like, yeah, it was like really
crazy and there's no cell reception and it's like a
massive crowd and I don't know something about shuttle buses.
And she's like, uh, well, hold on, let me try
to see if I can get a hold of Jay.
So I'm like okay. So then she gets back to me.
Basically she's like, so, yeah, every nobody's having cell reception.
She goes, but one of my friends, she's like, Jay
is with like eight other girls, and she's like, and
one of them does one of the other parents has
had contact with her daughter. And I was like, oh, okay,
that's good to know, just because she's like, but nobody
else seems to be able to get their phones to work.
So I was just gonna like, this is just insane.
Reads you a little bit of my nervous Yeah.
Speaker 2: So the city have to like shut it down. At
some point like what does the city not get involved?
I mean, especially with traffic back bumper to bumper on
the freeway and shuttle buses and no, why I don't
know yea.
Speaker 3: So she's like, she goes, Okay, Jay's phone is either
off or dead, but my friend's daughter texted and she
has reception. She goes, want me to make sure that
Xander and Sadie found Jay, And I was like, in
my mind, I'm like that it's just such a long shot.
But anyway, she wrote, Okay, Jay is with eight girls,
so if we need to get a hold of someone,
I know a few of them have phones that are working.
So I'm like, okay, thanks, I haven't heard back from
my kids. They do not have reception, and I said,
but I guess it's probably going to be a few
hours till they want to leave the party. Anyway, so
she writes, Spotty's service with Jay, but I think they're
trying to leave. So I'm like, Okay, that's not good.
And this, by the way, this is only at nine
forty five, so it's not like I'm thinking. I'm thinking
at this point like they're they're in a long line
and they can't like it's not fun, you know. So
I said, do you know if they're with Xander and
she wrote they can't even they can't get into the party,
and then she wrote, yes, they're all together. So I
was like, it's good, okay, okay, So then I was
able to calm down a little bit that they're all together. Meanwhile,
though I have not I have no way to get
a hold of my kids. And it turned out later
both their phones totally not working at all, zero cell receptions.
So maybe it had to do with you know, maybe
a couple of kids had a different like maybe we
have like T mobile and maybe they had something else
that was able to get a tower, you know, like
so only like one so one girl out of the
group of Jay's friends, one girl's phone had reception, but
she was only at like ten percent battery. So it
was like it was like alive, right, it was like
who are they going to eat first? You know what
I mean. They're like so this one girl, so they're
all like crowded around this wall, like sheeting up in
a battery, yes, yes, going like and they're trying to
ration out this girl's batteries. So like some people are
trying to get a hold of their They're trying to
figure out a plan to leave. Apparently I only found
a lot of this out on the back end, like
from my kids. But so she wrote, she wrote, eleven
of them are all together. They're sitting on a shuttle,
but the shuttle isn't moving because the parties stopped letting
people in. So I'm like, okay, are they on a
shuttle going toward the party or away from the party,
And she's like, from what I understand, they're just waiting
down the street, but sitting in a shuttle. Then she's like,
I'm trying to see if I can order an uber.
So this was like what you were dealing with at
that rave that tell you went to where their batteries
are out.
Speaker 1: You're trying to.
Speaker 3: Right somebody's going stolen. You're sending the ooh, you're trying
to send the uber.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get an uber to get right.
Speaker 3: So I said, they don't have reception though to order
an uber, and she's like, I could order it for
Jay Xander and Sadie and Sadie's friend and to go
to your house. And I was like, okay, I go,
I don't know. I can't get a hold of my kids.
She's like, no one's phone is working, and then she
wrote only one of the eleven is working. And then
I said, how do we get an uber to them
with no location? And she's like, I have an address,
so okay. So then she's apparently so here's what ended
up happening. She's try she tries to send them an uber.
She tries like eight times. They just keep canceling because
I guess the ubers get to where there's just bumpered
um for traffic. So she's like, it keeps saying eighteen
minutes away. The uber's eighteen minutes away. And she's like
it canceled.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So then and this is so here's from the other
side of the story that I found out later. Apparently
they were basically it was freezing cold out. These girls
are all in Boostie's and so they they go knock
on a shuttle. I think it was like one of
those situations where it's like a it's not the shuttle
that's hired by the party that's going back and forth.
It's one of those like party buses that you know
how they park outside of concerts and they charge you
an arm and a leg to like drive you home, right,
but they'll charge you like two hundred bucks. Right, it's
like an uber. But they're free range, right, they're not
working for a company. They're like doing their own thing.
So apparently the kids, some driver took pity on them
and let them sit in the car in their little shuttle.
And then in my mind, I was like, they should
have just paid, we would have split it to drive
me home, but they guess they didn't think of that.
And so then some family or some group wanted to
pay for that shuttle, so they all got kicked off.
So then apparently they couldn't get any service on their phone.
So the one girl with service, she got an Uber.
There were so many of them that they had to
split up. So the one girl, so my kids group
was on their own. This other girl with the only
one with phone reception, got on an Uber and left. So,
oh my gosh, So Sadie and Xander and their front
they all kept walking. They walked like they said, like
a half a mile up this, up this road until
they got reception enough to call, Like they couldn't text,
so then John gets a call. They weren't panicked, but
they were like we don't. We can't get out of here,
like the Ubers keep canceling. Oh, so John's like, all right,
give me a landmark. Like they were a little bit
out of the traffic jam because they'd walked like off
that road. So basically they were like, Okay, here's the
we're at in front of a house, here's the address.
There's like fairy lights, and John's.
Speaker 1: Like, all right, horror movie.
Speaker 3: So John went and got them and they were all
a little bit like traumatized but hungry. So John de
del Taco drop j off at her house. The mom
was super grateful because all the Ubers canceled.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just such a fucked up situation. So
all the way up.
Speaker 3: So I'll tell you though, what was happening at the party.
When let's take a break, let's talk about Via.
Speaker 1: Oh do I need a Via right now to relax
after you're listening to that story.
Speaker 3: I know. Via Hemp is one of our newest sponsors.

Speaker 1: Nice.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So okay, Sadie, one of Sadie's friends, the one
who she thought was friends with Annalie Fox, did get
into the party. So that girl went super early though.
Speaker 1: That's how they got in.
Speaker 3: She was smart. Yeah, they went up like six forty five.
Speaker 1: Oh wow.
Speaker 3: So she was at the party, but she said, so
I was privy to I. Sadie and I took a drive.
It was really sweet. Sadie's been a little bit low lately,
so LB was like, Sadie, come down to UCLA on
Sunday and let's hang. And it was really sweet.
Speaker 1: Oh that's so cute.
Speaker 3: That a sweet, big sister thing to do. So I
was driving Sadie down there and this girl was they
were they were on the phone on speaker, so I
got to ask questions and I was like, okay, girl,
She's like, first of all, it was a shit show.
It was massively crowded, like it wasn't She didn't have
a good time because it was too crowded. It was
just packed bodies together. And I was like, what was
there food? She's like yeah, but it was like too
much stuff was just kind of open food She's like,
but then they had so they basically built like a
carnival in Jamie Fox's yard. Wow. So a lot of
it was outdoors and they had like a ferris wheel,
they had rides geez. But there were so many people
that you couldn't get on anything, like, you couldn't enjoy it.
She's like, but they did have some food outside that
was like sealed, Like they had hot dogs that you
could get that were like, she goes, so I had that,
She's like, I had a few things just that were covered.
But basically she didn't really recognize any celebrities except for
Chris Brown was there, to which I was like.
Speaker 1: I heard that he was there too.
Speaker 3: Well, he beat Rihanna?
Speaker 1: Is that like That's all I think about when I
hear Chris Brown.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think of Rihanna's face being beaten on
the side of the road, and I'm like, okay, you know,
like that's your big get is Chris Brown. And then
I saw some pictures. So then Xander found videos. So
if you you can go on Instagram and you can
put in in your search terms Jamie Fox Halloween party,
and you will see video of this crazy party and
it is insane. It absolutely looks like a concert.
Speaker 1: That's like a Coachella.
Speaker 3: Massive people massive, just just bodies together.
Speaker 1: Fun is that?
Speaker 3: I know? So Xander when he was looking up the videos,
he was like, I'm actually kind of relieved that we
didn't get into that party. It sounds it looked horrible.
Speaker 2: Because what what can you even do? Like, I guess
maybe you look around for celebrities. I'm sure you don't
even see Jamie Fox.
Speaker 3: Probably no, Jamie Fox was like on the stage with
Chris Brown, Like It's not like he was like mingling.
There was no mingling. It was yeah, just sardines. And
apparently in the house as well, like there was just
no you couldn't breathe.
Speaker 1: I let people in the house, I think so.
Speaker 3: I think parts of it right, I think there were
some parts that you could go in, but mostly it
was outside.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I was probably freezing outside. Yeah,
and I'm sure there's a line. I can't imagine the
bathroom situation, oh yeah, you know. I mean they must
have had Quarterer potties with the line. And I don't know,
I'm too old for that. Fucking shit.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that no one sounded like a nightmare.
Speaker 1: It does sound like a nightmare.
Speaker 2: And I cannot believe the day you had and you
couldn't go to sleep. Now you're like your kids are
sucked into Jamie Fox's vortex, right, and you can't get
him out right, and you have no way to get
a hold of him.
Speaker 3: It was so worn and John was pissed. John was
mainly about that because he had been there and seen it,
and he was like, what the fuck is Jamie Fox? Thinking?
How narcissistic is this guy that he is like creating
such chaos? He said, it was like the you know
the fire fire festival. Yes, was like basically, these kids
are stranded out there with like no bathrooms, no cell service,
Like yeah, exactly, they're gonna.
Speaker 1: Like be take pity on them, camp in front.
Speaker 3: Of somebuddy's house, like you know, Like He's like it
was just a nightmare. Oh and by the way, the
fire department had to come because I was wondering just
because some some girl collapsed. There was like a couple
of different incidents where somebody was like too drunk and
like collapsed, and then somebody else was like I think
just from the crowd and the whatever collapse. So yeah,
there were ambulances there, fire department was there, police were there.
Speaker 2: Like, I don't like I would think he would have
to have a permit to have this type of party.
Speaker 3: Maybe he gets it, and maybe he.
Speaker 1: Does get it, but what's in it for him? Is
that fun for you?
Speaker 2: I guess everybody's different and they have maybe wants to
have his kid.
Speaker 1: Have a great party. But then just like they're her friends.
Well that's what I was saying.
Speaker 3: You know what else is a great party? Like one
hundred people?
Speaker 1: Yes, like what do you have to invite the whole
Sam Fernando vite.
Speaker 3: Two hundred people and have a carnival?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Right, right, that she can have fun at. But also
I realized too that this wasn't even really her birthday party.
It was even though it was listed, because it's if
he does this every year, then that's not really her
her birthday party, right, So you're kind of being cheap
if you think about it, like you're just going like,
you know what, it will also be your sweet sixteen party?
Like Okay, how come I didn't get so I get Really, no,
you are already gonna have this party anyway.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's true, that's true.
Speaker 2: That's true too, but I just don't I don't know
what it's in it for him yet to have this
kind of big party and then kids are getting dropped
off to take the shuttle and then they can't get
hold of anybody. They can't get hold of uber, they
can't get hold of their parents, they can't order fucking
pizza outside like, they can't do shit. There's no cell
and and it's not like this was just the first time.
This happened last year to my friend with his son,
same thing.
Speaker 3: I think that's why John was mad, because he was
just like, you have to know that this is what's
going to happen. So you have to know you have
no cell service, you have to know kids are going
to get stranded. You have to know that. Oh my god.
And so the situation apparently that I found out later
was okay, so where they got dropped off, you have
to wait for a shuttle bus to take you to
the thing, but first you have to get in a
different line, and there was no lines. Xander said, it
was just chaos. It was just hordes of people. You
have to go to this first, get a wristband. Okay,
So they're all these people trying to get wristbands well
and oh, this is like a funny part of the story.
So he's like, we were just like we're never getting wristbands.
Like there's so many people and people are pushing and
shoving to get ahead, to get up to the front
of the line. And so one of the girls in
the other little group of friends found a VIP wristband
on the ground like somebody, I guess I've got a
wristband and dropped it and it was different than the
other wristbands. It was like a gold wristband and said
VIP on it. So so this girl was kind of
like us, and so she has this idea. So she
goes up to a security guard and she was like, hey,
I am friends with my my cousin is she says,
she's very good friends with Ann Lisa's cousin, and she's
supposed to be there. She's like on a list. She's like,
I'm VIP. I'm supposed to be in there right now.
They're asking me like where are you. Wow, So this
girl yeah, So somehow, so the security guard and she's like, look,
I have the I already had this ahead of time.
But she's like, my eleven friends were also supposed to
have them and they didn't get them, so like, how
can we fix this?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: So I guess the security guard was like, well, I
need to see proof or something, and he's like, the
girl had something in her phone and I don't know
how she had this, but something that kind of would
make it seem like maybe it was like somebody named
Annalise in her phone and she just thought of that
and she was like, yeah, it's under a code name
or whatever, but it's atal. So the security guard was like, okay,
So they all got risk bands. They all got VIP wristbands.
So they were all like, oh my god, yeah we
did it, Like that's.
Speaker 1: So crazy, like genius.
Speaker 3: Like we just totally finaggled. So they're all got these wristbands,
but now they got to wait in line for the shuttle,
and Xander's like, so you think, like we were all like,
I guess we're going to this party, then we've got
VIP wristbands. But no, the shuttle line was so long
that all of these people, Xander said, were just pushing
and shoving and getting like the shuttle doors would open
for the next group of people and all these kids
would like shove their way on, but then they would
get turned away at the party because they didn't have wristbands.
So it's just people that hadn't waited in the line
for wristbands. We're getting on. So then the shuttles would
come back full of kids, and then so Xander's like,
we just couldn't. I mean, it just was hours of
waiting until we were finally like, screw this, it's not
worth it.
Speaker 1: We're not going to so unorganized.
Speaker 3: I know too, I know, and I guess a bunch
of kids decided to rush the property. So the shuttle
buses were driving. It was only like a half a mile,
but it was like up a hill. So I guess
a group of like one hundred kids decided to just
try to run rush the party, rushed the gates basically,
and then I guess there was a whole Maybe that
was when ambulances had to come because I guess the
security guards were going crazy, like grabbing people and turning
the wow and wow. You know that's going to happen
at your house, right, And you're just like, I don't care.
Speaker 2: Yeah, You're just having a good old time with Chris
Brown inside your backyard, eating your hot dog.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile kids are canting, tramp hurt.
Speaker 3: Yes, do we know what was actually wrong with Jamie Fox?
I was going to ask you because he was hospitalized.
I mean I suspected mental health issues, but didn't it
turn out to be like a medical issue, Like nobody
really knows because.
Speaker 2: Now he's okay, right, there was I think there was
talk of like he's going to be out of commission
for a long time.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well remember he was acting like a crazy person
on a movie set, like and they were like, oh,
there's it's because of health reasons. Oh that's why everyone
thought it was like mental health stuff. But then he
was hospitalized. But then nobody ever knew what for.
Speaker 1: But he was hot, Yeah, and he was hospitalized for
a while. And does it say anything.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying it just started with a bad headache,
is what he said. But he was in the hospital
for a long time. All I can I can't really
find anything.
Speaker 1: Did they keep him you in the hospital for a
long time?
Speaker 3: If and what if it was something? Why won't he
say what it was?
Speaker 1: That's that's the weird pot.
Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you be like, oh my gosh, I had meningitis.
I almost died like what there's why keep it so secret? Yeah, yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe we can send your kids out there next year,
do some crack investigating.
Speaker 4: He said he doesn't want to say.
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to say, but I won't say it
on camera. So weird, right, yeah, that is very weird.
Speaker 4: He said he was just gone for twenty days. He
doesn't remember anything while he's in the hospital. Really, yeah,
that was his quote. He goes, he calls asking a
friend for advil, and then I was gone for twenty days.
I don't remember anything.
Speaker 3: Do you think it was like a remember that uh
where that woman like loses time?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yes, yes, yeah, you like your state? Yes
there was a documentary. I was just telling you, yes,
yeah right, yeah maybe it was something like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Maybe he would think he's crazy if he was,
like I was in a future state, right, but why
not it? Yeah it's weird, but yeah that could have happened.
Speaker 2: But then why not talk about it, like, yeah, this
is what happened to me, or have your doctor talk
about it on your behalf. I don't know something, but
to keep it quiet makes a little suspect, little sus.
Speaker 3: Little sus as they say, yeah, so that was my
crazy story. That was all happened in one day.
Speaker 1: That's crazy crazy one day for me? That what time
do you go to bed that night?
Speaker 3: One? Maybe? What I mean, once everybody got home, I
think they didn't get dropped off until like twelve thirty, yeah,
maybe one thirty. I didn't even talk to the kids
that night. I was so tired. I was in a
few states. I mean, all I know is that they
got in the house and I was like, all right, done,
and then I just tried to go to sleep, right, yeah, goodbye.
But when I was checking Life three sixty on John
because I had the other mom, Jay's mom was texting me,
going is he going to be able to drop her
off at home? And I was like, yeah, I'm sure
he will. But then I check and I'm like what
these bitches are at Del Taco? Like you know what
I mean? I was like, does anybody have consideration for me?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I want to go to sleep. I'm sure I could
have gone to sleep knowing everybody was safe, but you know,
at that point, I just wanted to make sure everybody
was in the house.
Speaker 2: Ye yes, yeah, yeah, I know, And I I was
tacking on my friend, like what what this year? Like
he drew the short end of the straw, you know,
because last year his wife had to go get the
kids and.
Speaker 1: She's like no, no, no, no, no, you're going.
Speaker 2: To get them this year. And he was like yeah,
all right, and did not know what he was in for, right,
you know. But luckily they made you know, they knew
to make a meeting spot and even that kind of work,
but not really you know. He didn't get home until
I think like three after dropping the other two. But
I said to him, said, did other parents even thank
you or anything?
Speaker 3: That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 2: No, It's like nope, the fun arya hot hair of attacks, nothing,
nobody nothing.
Speaker 3: Let's take another quick break. Yeah, my kids. One of
my kids has a friend that I won't I won't
say which kid or which friend, obviously, but I've actually
talked about this one on Patreon before. The parents are
fucking nightmares, like they are. I can't say too much
more specifically, but they are really nightmares, and they there.
We have their kid all the time. And this is
a different kid than the one you guys are thinking about,
but always at she's always at our house and she's
absolutely sweet really like this kid but like never has
a dime, you know, and the parents don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, and.
Speaker 3: The dad tried to pick a fight with us over
our lawn sign. We have one of those like oh boy,
no one's illegal or whatever, you know, one of those
corny ass like liptard signs in front of our house.
But you know, but apparently he took a picture of
it and was saying like, look at these people, like
you know, it's like, well, okay, okay, our politics don't
align with yours. But also like our kid's never been
to your house, like right, Like you don't know how
to treat your child? Yes, like and is that really
the fight you want to pick with us? Like right,
who are very good to your kid?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's bizarre, that's not.
Speaker 3: Well, like I would never hold I would never hold
it against the daughter, like it has nothing to do
with her, and she couldn't be like.
Speaker 1: She's and I'm sure you feed her when she comes over, of.
Speaker 3: Course, and she's so polite too, like she's always thankful,
but like I've never gotten like a thank you from
it's all the times that you know, Sadie always Sadie.
Now that Sadie drives. Sadie always goes and picks her up,
brings her to our house, drives her home no matter
how late it is, and you.
Speaker 1: Know, and never like that.
Speaker 2: It's I, you know, I've had the same thing like
the mobile Muffin's.
Speaker 3: Mind in a situation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, lived at my house for so long and we
fed her and took her thing, take took her place,
It took her out to dinners with us family, dinners
and shit, and literally like lived in an italian's room
every summer and never I didn't even meet the mom.
Speaker 1: Never, never a thank you, never a text.
Speaker 2: Never, Hey, you know my mom wanted me to give
you this twenty dollars bill for dinner last say something
like any you know, no, nothing, nothing, what kind.
Speaker 3: Of a weird take advantage?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I could never do.
Speaker 2: I could not let my kid just hang out with
some other family and have them feed her and take
her places and take her to dinner and never like
not a thank you.
Speaker 3: Or also send her to events like where you know
your kid is going. Let's just say to Disneyland or something,
but send them with no money.
Speaker 2: Right, It's baffling, it's yeah, or just offer like how
about I go pick them up for a change.
Speaker 1: Oh instead of you picking them up never dropping them off.
Speaker 3: Never happened one time.
Speaker 1: No, it's strange, I know. Yeah, wow what a weekend.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just thinking too, like how did we
because we did shit like that when we were in
high school, Like we went to crazy to hear about
some party. How did we get home from places?
Speaker 1: Friends?
Speaker 3: But we didn't have cell phones at all? There was
no uber right, I'd say we went to something and
it was just like a massive crowd, because I remember
I did that sometimes me too. I guess we just
drove ourselves there. Yeah, I had my friends drove or
you found a friend and you just got somebody that
you even met them there to give you a ride back.
We would also take the RTD bus, Yes, the Rapid
Transit uh district Rapid Transit.
Speaker 1: It was our TD, and we would take it everywhere
all the time.
Speaker 3: But like for me also, you know, when I was
in high school, beginning of high school, I lived in Spokane.
Second part of high school in spring Field, you could
pretty much well not Springfield Springfield. You'd have to take
a bus or we drove places. But in Spokane, what
you did was. It was like kind of a condensed
area where the stuff happens. So it was a far walk,
but like if you had to, you'd just be kind
of walking drunk at like one in the morning, there'd
be a group of you and if you really couldn't
get a ride, even if it was five miles, you
just walk, right. Yeah, But you didn't go places that
were like twenty miles away, right, I didn't when I
was a kid.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we well we went.
Speaker 2: We would go to Hollywood Boulevard and we'd go see
bands like on Sunset. But that was with my friend
that had a car, right, Yeah, we had hot butt
in the back of her car.
Speaker 1: Because right, your car went over your feet and our
asses would be on fire. But yeah, I mean that's
about the extent of it. But yeah, we would just But.
Speaker 3: Do you ever remember getting like lost somewhere or feeling like,
oh my god, there's no one to call to come
get us.
Speaker 2: Hell, really, I'm sure it's happened. Yes, Yeah, to have
to go to like a phone booth and make a
call to your friend, right, hope they pick up.
Speaker 3: I remember one time, I think I've told this story before,
but where my friend and I got a ride to
this like pizza place late at night, and I think
we'd snuck out of the house. So then we were
at this far pizza place that was like five miles
from home, and somehow the guys left, like we got
left there and then we couldn't My parents would first
of all, they would have killed me. Second of all,
they would not have come to get us, Like that's
how my parents. My parents would have been like, go
fuck yourself. Yeah, figured out no buses were running, I'm
pretty sure at that time. So we had to walk
in the middle of the night.
Speaker 1: See that's the crazy.
Speaker 3: Five mile walk.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I don't think we were drunk or anything, but we
were scared in the middle of the night, and it
was really far and we didn't have like GPS on
our I guess we just knew enough about our neighborhood
to figure out our way home.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have to take the bus. Can we
go again? But you know the valley? So I lived
at Sherman Way in Fallbrook.
Speaker 3: Do it in Guilder Rodner his voice.
Speaker 1: So when I was at sixteen years old, I would
have be afraid to take of the bus. I would
have had to take of the bus.
Speaker 2: Down the Sherman Way and to catch the Blue Line
over to the East Valley and go to Pecima.
Speaker 1: And then I'd be lost to go on the way.
The hell am I doing in a Palakuhima? I'm not
supposed to be in the West Hills.
Speaker 3: Yeah right, you kind of figure out how you figure
it out to ping the mall is these two buses?
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, then them all yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: Our kids, My kids have never seen the inside of
a bus.
Speaker 1: Side of I know though. We did have a little
bus in our town, so they do.
Speaker 2: They would take the bus who blocks up, like you
could probably spit from our house to where they get
dropped off. It's just this little buzzing down that's it.
There was no way they would be able to take
a bus.
Speaker 1: Like we would have to take the bus to the beach,
from the valley to the beach.
Speaker 3: Yes, my friend Cecily, not podcast partner Cecily, but my
friend Cecily also grew up in La on the West Side,
and she was like, oh my god, we would eat
hitchhike she goes. We would take We knew all the
bus routes, she goes. We were always taking the bus
to the beach.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we did.
Speaker 3: Yeah, out on sunset, all the way down to the beach.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: O for hitchhiking, my dad, don't you ever hitchhike? Don't
you you know that some girl got her arms chopped off?
Speaker 1: He would tell me that.
Speaker 2: And here I am later in life, recently watching some
documentary about this.
Speaker 1: I think it was on HBO.
Speaker 2: But this guy that they thought was the killer of
the these girls in the seventies and one girl was
found in a ditch with her arms chopped off.
Speaker 1: Yes, And I was do you think.
Speaker 2: That's what you're that's what my dad was talking about
because it was in the seventies and I was a
product of the seventies, my dad, and it's stuck in
my brain, like, don't ever hitchhike.
Speaker 1: My arms are gonna get chopped off.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I was afraid my friends would hitchike and I'd
be like, I'm not chegging. No, no, no, no, no,
I'm gonna get my arms. And now here I'm like
as an adult watching a documentary and it was this
in the seventies, there was a serial killer like kidnapping women,
and one girl was found with her arms hacked off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh my god. Yeah.
Speaker 3: On that note, I remember this Lifetime movie that has
always haunted me, and Mary Lou Henner was in it.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 3: So if you look up, Kaitlin, will you look up
a movie Mary Lou Henner, Lifetime movie about getting abducted.
But basically, these two women got abducted and one of
them got killed and Mary Lou Henner had to like
play dead. But it was a horrible kidnapping. But they
kind of tortured them and then they shot one of
them and they fell down like an embankment, and then
Mary Lou Henner lived. I believe she was shot, but
she played dead and then she had to but she
was like really fucked up, like really hurt. But and
then they left them in the middle of like nowhere
and she had to figure like try to she had
to get fined like somebody. And that movie has haunted me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like their father, No, that's not what it's called.
Speaker 3: No, No, this was like a stranger abduction. Yeah, not
stolen by their father. She's probably been in.
Speaker 1: A quite a few.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gonna be one of those like justice.
Speaker 4: For so fight for justice. The Nancy Kahn story.
Speaker 3: I think that's that could be it read the abstract.
Speaker 2: Uh, it sounds like it's a true true.
Speaker 4: Life drama about a working mom whose life is put
back in jeopardy when the man who was convicted of
stalking her and her cousin comes up for parole.
Speaker 3: No different one, there's two that are kind of similar.
That was a good That was a good one too, though.
Speaker 1: I miss those movies.
Speaker 3: God, I used to love Lifetime movies. I'll figure it
out for you guys and and post it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I remember looking it up and I knew it was.
It's one of those, but it's a it's not that one, yeah,
because there's no stalker. This is about like this. But
I've seen the movie that that Nancy, that Fight for Job.
I've seen that in a few times. It's a good one. Yeah.
I used to be so into Lifetime movies me too, really,
like like I watched them all the time. Yeah, there
was like they were on like weekly. It was even
before they were It was when they were Lifetime movies,
not the Lifetime channel.
Speaker 1: Was it the Lifetime channel.
Speaker 3: It was just like I think there were I think
it was the Lifetime channel, but it was then they
started making a different they started calling them something, they
started rebranding them, right, but this was like straight up
yeah yeah, Lifetime right the best. I think they were
just on every week.
Speaker 1: Maybe I even think I'm thinking.
Speaker 2: Of also the after school Movies of the Week too,
the ABC after School Movies of the Week.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I love those. Do you remember James
at sixteen? There was James at fifteen and James at sixteen.
Then and there was the Portrait of a teenage runaway.
Speaker 2: Yes, it wasn't like Christy McNichol, and yes, I think it.
Speaker 3: Was called Dawn Portrait of a teenage Runaway.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah.
Speaker 3: And then there was like the one about the alcoholic
like Sarah. It was I think as I referenced it
in Drunkish it was like called Sarah like portrait of
an alcoholic teenage alcoholic or something.
Speaker 1: Wow. Then there was one I remember.
Speaker 2: I think it was Molly Ringwall and her and her
boyfriend were in love and then they wanted to kill
themselves and they sat in the car in the garage
killing themselves that way.
Speaker 1: Yes, do you remember that? Yes? Yes, Oh my god.
Speaker 3: We have to find that one.
Speaker 1: Molly Ringwold. I think or I think it was.
Speaker 3: I think it was.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, remember when we felt bad for certain actresses because
they got like roped into only doing lifetime movies. Yes,
there was one that I loved with that Lisa Rena
was in that was years ago, called another Woman's husband.
Speaker 1: Oh, that sounds like something she would be in.
Speaker 3: Right, And like it's like this woman who's married to
this guy. These two women become friends and then and
Lisa Renna's like talking about like this, she meets this
guy and she's like falling in love with him, and
then she's always telling her friend like, oh my god,
like just and she only says his first name or
something because she's like, I guess she knows he's married.
I can't remember if she knows he's married, but she
like can't help herself or whatever. Then of course it
turns out that the husband is her friend's best friend,
and then the best friend is like so mad, you know,
like I can't believe it, and then she feels so
bad and she's like, oh my gosh, I'm so sorry,
and that she breaks up. Anyway, it was like that
was a good one.
Speaker 1: That's a good one, and they should bring those back. Yeah,
I know. Yeah, they should watch the fuck out of those.
I totally would.
Speaker 3: Well, I think, Oh, wasn't it on were they on own?
Oh yeah, maybe he started having Yeah it was. Oh,
it was before they had the Lifetime Movie Network and
it was just Lifetime Channel and they had movies on there.
Right now they have the Lifetime Movie Network where I
guess you could just watch them all the time.
Speaker 1: Oh you could if you have.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I haven't. No, yeah, I guess
we'll leave you with that. Yeah, we don't know. Anyway.
