Speaker 1: I made a decision. Sunny sound. I had a.
Speaker 2: Vision, like, n.
Speaker 1: What's happening everybody. It's Friday, Friday, Happy Friday. I'm at
the river right now. You are at the river right now.
Twenty degree heat.
Speaker 2: Apparently many years ago, when I was five months pregnant.
Did I ever tell you this story? I'm sure I did.
I'm sure I told you at the No, because I
was pregnant with Elbe, so I wouldn't have been podcasting yet.
But I have this friend who i'm no longer friends with,
who kind of an unstable person. Yeah, but we would
take trips together sometimes always kind of a mistake.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we went.
Speaker 2: We were going to Palm Springs. I was five months
pregnant with Elbe, so first baby. And I'm not saying
I wasn't even super paranoid during that pregnancy, but I
was very like, you're like every symptom is you know,
You're always like, oh, I hope this doesn't hurt the
baby whatever. You know, it's a pomp Springs. It's one
hundred and thirteen degrees there. It's so hot, and I
was just extra overheated because I was pregnant, right, not
just a little bit pregnant. You know, I'm five months.
I'm like showing, you know. And we it was so
hot that it was hard to go from the Our
hotel room was like twenty yards from the pool, and
even that, like walking across the grass to get to
the pool, was like I'm going to die, right, And
she had no patience for me. She was just like,
it's not that bad. I'm like, it's so bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I couldn't.
Speaker 2: It was having the most miserable time. I just wanted
to go home. So finally I was just like, look,
I can't do it. We're going to have to do
something with air conditioning, right right.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So she's like, okay, well let's go to a movie.
You're going to go to a movie. But then she
was like, you know what, we'll go to the movie,
but let's get our nails done first. So I'm like okay.
But even just driving around was so hot, and you
first have to get in the car and then get
you're in the AC and even though you're not driving far,
it's just the whole drive you're so hot because it
doesn't have time for the AC to kick in. And
she's just like, oh my god, you're complaining so much,
and I was like, okay, I'm trying. I'm feeling sick.
So then we get to the nail salon I walk in.
The smell was so bad, right, because everything smells so
much worse when you're pregnant. You're so strong. And this
is she didn't have kids, never did have kids, was
not into the idea of having kids, wasn't particularly interested
in a friend like that. Pregnancy. Yeah, so she was
so mad because I was like, I cannot get my
nails done, and she.
Speaker 1: Was just like, well, what can you do? Oh god?
Speaker 2: And I was like, well, I could go fucking home
right now. You can't. But I was like, well we
could go to the movies, like we were going to
go to the movie. So she was like, well, I'm
getting my nails done and I was like, okay, well
I can't be in there. So I don't know where
I went. There was like maybe something like a couple
doors down. So she made me go sit in some
other place while she got her nails done. My god,
for like an hour, and then she finally was done,
and then we went.
Speaker 1: To a movie.
Speaker 2: And then I was like, I want to go home.
We were supposed to stay another night and I was like,
I want to go home.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, and she never forgave me. Yeah, I
have a friend like that. It's that, you know, when
they don't have kids and they just don't get it. Yeah,
they just want to do things. It's so funny though.
Heat stroke. Did you hear about this TikTok chick that
got heat stroke and had to get airlifted and our
friend this story, it's okay, this woman, she's this girl,
this young girl went went hiking and her friends were
with her, and they were going on this hike and
it was very very hot in Los Angeles and apparently
like they're live streaming it and they're posting it on
the tickety Talk and all that stuff, like, look at us,
we're hiking. Immediately this girl she's heavy set, okay, and
she starts her cheeks start getting bright red and she
starts to have to sit down and she has heatstroke
and or she's like she feels like she's getting heatstroke,
she's having diarrhea, and her friend is live streaming it
and her friend pinned it to the top of her account,
like here's our ordeal that poor Mandy went through for
like it's it happened like two years ago, so she
like had it pinned to her. She had diarrhea. She's
videotaping her having the diarrhea, and she's wiping it with
the wipes, the on fleshible wipes, and the friend is
doesn't want to litter, so the friend is putting the
wipes in her back back and she's videos and she
like pins it to the top of her thing, and
then she had to get airlifted out of there. They
had to get the helicopter to airlift her as she's
got the diarrhea. No, she's spitting like a rotisserie chicken
like up in the sky, having the diary and her
being dripping, and her friend's like, oh, poor Mandy. There
she got sugar warning, bigger warning. Oh my god, poor Mandy.
Speaker 2: There she goes, look at my friend, My poor friend,
but like, poor friend, what kind of.
Speaker 1: Friend are you? That's terrible, horrible right that there's videocobable
not of the diarrhea bar but there's video of it
of her getting airlifted and her having the heat drug
and she can't go on.
Speaker 2: Anything, so there's not the video doesn't have the diarrhea.
Speaker 1: No, I don't know if now she took it down
or something. I don't maybe there is, I just I
don't see it. But I didn't want to see it.
But but yeah, I mean the fact that her friend
like thought it was a good idea to just like
document the whole thing.
Speaker 2: It's terrible.
Speaker 1: It's terrible anyway, that's the heat stroke story.
Speaker 2: So you but right now you're not having heat strokes
and praying. Yeah, I'll pray for.
Speaker 1: You, Thank you. I probably hopefully on a boat or
floating in the river.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's cooler by a river, because it's no, because
that's not really the same as being near an ocean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's no, it's pretty brutal.
Speaker 2: I's ocean breeze.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he has ac his house, so you'll bring
like spray bottles, and he has misters outside on his
on his where you know, his balcony or whatever. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, we spring really hot here. And I feel bad
for Bob, my dog.
Speaker 1: I know how was he doing.
Speaker 2: He's doing fine.
Speaker 1: I love him so much.
Speaker 2: You're going to have another dog.
Speaker 1: Shit, he can't wait.
Speaker 2: I love Bob. I'm like obsessed with Bob. Now, Bob
is still very timid, so I am gonna at some point,
I feel like, got to get the summer pass. Yeah,
I'm gonna put him in some kind of socialization training class. Yeah,
because he's just so scared of everything. Yeah, he loves
his walks though, but he's very I think because of
the heat, because I remember this with Pepo. He's pretty
low energy right now. He just wants to like lay around.
Most people with their dogs are noticing that.
Speaker 1: Really, Yeah, Okay, they're not like one of my friends like, yeah,
my dog is just sitting in the corner just like panting,
even though the AC's on an area.
Speaker 2: No, the AC's on in our house.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they're like they kind of I think are
sensitive to it. Or even like when you take them
out for a walk and they come back, it's just
like they're just.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just like collapses.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: But he my dog does remind me a lot of
phil because he will eat anything anything, So he will
find and you just have to constantly hold on to
him because if you're walking and you're in our park
near our park, he will you found like a little
plastic ramikin that you would get with like ranch stressing
in it, right that you would peel the top off
the you know people throw their trash on the ground. Yeah,
he gets one of those. It's in his mouth. You
are not getting it out now, I know. And he
I'm pretty sure he swallowed one of those like five
days ago, but he like crushed it up in his
mouth and then swallowed it. And I'm immediately like, am
I going to have to get this dog surgery over that? Only?
Speaker 1: I mean those kinds of things Phil would eat, soy
sauce packets, ketchup packages, like yeah, when you go on
a walk with him, he just grabs it. Like I
told you he swallowed a bird hole, you know, and
that like was I looked it up and it was
like it's okay. You know, they'll whatever. But if they'll
usually kind of get rid of it, it'll come out
on its own. The only time you gotta work. You
just got to look. You just got to keep watch.
If you see that he ate something that's foreign, if
he starts to not want to eat, or he starts
to drool a lot like phill with jewel, Like you
could tell like he's not feeling good, then you got
to take them and get him checked.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to get pet insurance.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Now after lecturing you about it so many times, I know,
Like I told John the other day, I was like, Okay,
we got to get pet insurance for Bob and he
was like, we don't have it. No, I didn't shop
around yet. You have it for Penelope, had it for Penelope. Yeah,
But we canceled it towards the end because it was like,
it goes the problem with pet insurance. Yea, is it's great,
Well it's really it's not great. It's for in case
there's a catastrophe. It's great if they're having surgeries, like
it would have saved you a lot of money with Hill.
So if you have a dog, and I see that
in our future with Bob, I see like potential stomach
surgeries in his future because it's just really impossible to
watch every single thing that they might eat. But the
problem is as they get older or your premium goes
up constantly. So towards the end, it was like for Bob,
they wanted like three hundred dollars or something a month,
which was it started it was like nineteen dollars a month,
you know, and then every it just constantly goes up
until when they're old when you're like, well, I don't
really you know, Penelope wasn't having those kind of right, right,
and it doesn't cover a lot of stuff. So every
time I would bring Penelope to the vet to like
check something, it's eighty dollars for the exam, right, and
then if there's treatment or medication, it covers a percentage
of that. Towards the end to get the premium down,
I was like, well, just do fifty percent. So then
you're not even like yeah yeah, but with Bob, yeah
you should probably get it. Do you know where the
Moses Vet Hospital is twenty four hour? Yeah, okay, that's good.
The Access one in Woodland Hills that would be ours.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: But anyway, he ate that thing a little while ago,
and he's been fine. I mean he eat everything that
he seems fine, but I haven't seen it come out
in his poop. I mean, it was a hard piece
of plastic right that Sometimes you don't really see it.
Sometimes it just I don't know what happens to the shit,
but like, literally, I hope it doesn't just get stuck there.
Speaker 1: Well, then you'll know if he's not feeling good, if
he's drooling or stuff like that then you'll know, yeah,
and that's when you got to take him. There's been
so many nights in the middle of the night that
I've had to take Phil. Like I mean, I remember
when I had the kids were young, and Adam wasn't
home or something or out of town, and Phil was sick,
and I was like, how do I get him to
the hospital. The kids are sleeping, and I called the hospital.
I'm like, this is the symptoms, this is what he ate,
and they're like, you got to get him in now.
And I don't remember what I did. I guess I
waited till the morning and then took him to school
and then took him I guess. But yeah, many many
times Bill had surgery, probably three times more than that.
Well he was rush of the ass, but a lot
there's a lot of times where they do see it
and then they can give him stuff to get it
moving and get it out, which we've done many times.
But the surgery, yeah, no, I think it's for surgery. Well,
not compare not his last surgery, that's different, but to
remove something. I think it was probably four times. Remember
he swallowed that big plastic ball looked it was like
the size of a pink. It was bigger than a
ping pong ball, yeah, and it was black or something.
Speaker 2: Like well that see, but that ramikin was kind of
like the size of a ping pong ball.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but those are squishy, right, Like.
Speaker 2: No, it's hard. It's like hard plastic, you know, if
you're like, get some chicken tenders somewhere and they serve
you like there's imagine like McDonald's, you know, like the
sauce that goes with chicken McNuggets like that, but like
a little bit round, like a hard plastic thing that
you feel off the top, right, And he had ground.
He grabbed one before it was like look like ranch
and then was trying to get every drop of the
ranch out of it. One other time he did that,
he carried it all the way home and then he
dropped it for one second, and then I grabbed it, but.
Speaker 1: This time I didn't see him drop it. You ever,
try and get into his mouth and yeah, he is no.
Speaker 2: His jaws are like a steel Try now, he's just like, oh, nobody, no,
this is mine, finders keepers, You're not getting this.
Speaker 1: It's all mine, right, And.
Speaker 2: Then I get so frustrated, and I'm like Bob this
is very bad for you. Had I talked to him,
I try to put my fingers to pry open his
jaw to get it out. Nothing, he won't do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so many days of that? Yeah, is there a trick?
You know what?
Speaker 2: I should carry? Like food with me? I should carry
like a little bit of treats or something. Yeah, I
could give show him something else.
Speaker 1: I think I try that and they just swallow it
and then go, okay, give me that now, like it
goes down fast. Oh you could try it, though, you
could try it. It's worth the try. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. You know what we should talk
about though? Yeah, Hello Tushy, Hello, Tushy.
Speaker 1: I'm so excited that they're a new sponsor because I'm
going to use that in my new house.

the street, which is fine. She asked me if she
could leave it. I was like, that's fine. So yes
fighting this cold. So yesterday I was like, you know,
I've been doing a lot of like going through closets
and getting rid of stuff and thinning the herd out.
And then I was like, okay, I'm gonna lay down
and take a nap. I lay down and I get
a text from Italian and she's like, my friend call her.
Lila is I don't know why is there? I thought, yeah,
she's like, Lila's there, and Natalia wasn't there. She was
at her friend's house that was like twenty five minutes away.
She's like, can you let her in? And I was
like yeah, but why because her car's like okay, yeah,
I let her.
Speaker 2: And she says she's back from Europe or she's back leaving.
Speaker 1: She was back after being gone for two months and
her car being parked. Okay, so I go and I
was like hey Lila and she's like, missus Corolla, my
car isn't starting. It started and I got it down
to the bottom of the street and then that's stalled out.
I think I need a jump start. And I was like, well,
I don't know what you want me to do a
bad it's my naptime. I was like are you kidding me?
I was thinking to myself what and then I go, okay,
I have an electric car. I don't have jumper cables,
you know, and why is it? Natalia home to deal
with this? So I was like, well, do you have
triple A? And she's like no, and I was like
why now what Now it's like my problem. So I'm like, okay,
well come on it like uh and I'm thinking and
then I call it. Talia go like where are you
and she's like, well, I'm at so and So's house.
I'm on my way home and I'm not going to
be there for This girl traveled eleven hours from Tokyo
and all she wanted to do was get home and
go to sleep. She didn't sleep. She's afraid to fly.
She flew by herself for eleven hours. This poor goes
she's really sweet and it's like, I'm like, what am
I going to do? Kick her to the curb and
so I go, where's your car? She goes, well, he
was able to like kind of it just died, so
you know, this steering wheel. But she's like, I got
it to the side of the road pretty good. Well
spoiler alert into the story when I went to go
see her car. Cars in the middle of the street
in an intersection, like I mean a little bit to
the side, but not really. She's not near any curb.
She was like eight feet from the curb. She was
just in her like hazards were going. I was like, oh,
my alone. So anyway, I'm like, okay, you don't have triple.
Speaker 2: A, but do you have triple A?
Speaker 1: Oh it expired. It expired, Okay. So then I was like,
I guess we just I don't I go, let's call
a tow truck driver. And my car wasn't at home.
Sonny had my car, so I was thinking I would
go to the gas station, go get you know, the
jumper cables like I did for Natalia, and go get
the gas tank the gas can.
Speaker 2: Because Natalia has an electric car too.
Speaker 1: No she doesn't, she doesn't, no, So I was thinking,
you know, when she's on her way home, I could
go get the jumper cables and we can jump it
with an Italian's car. But Sonny had my car, so
we're both like with no car. So and she's like,
my dad said that he could call a tow truck
drive and he'll pay for it. So so she's like,
here's the tow truck number. Can you call and like
tell him the address? So I call the guy and
he's like, okay, I can be there in forty five minutes. Great, okay, great,
So like, here's a popsicle, Lilah, take a nap. You
want to take a nap with me? I'm sure you're tired.
And she's like yeah, I'm okay, I'm okay. She is
like sitting there with her popsicle, and I'm just like, so,
how's your trip, you know, just like okay, forty five
minutes or is an Italian to get home sooner? Well,
now Natalia is stuck in like this accident on the
freeway and she's dead stop, can't get off the freeway,
and she's like, mom, I'm still kind of like twenty
minutes on Saturday. This was yesterday, okay, yeah, on the
two ten there was like a huge accident, just dead stop,
and I was like, okay, well somebody's or where's sunny
like with my car, you know anyway, but I can't
even if I had my car, I can't jump her
because I have an electric car. So I gotta wait
till she gets there. So we're waiting for the in
I'm just like forty five minutes then the guy. Then
Natalia's not home. Then forty five minutes comes and goes
and I call the guy. I'm like, hey, Caesar, where
are you And he's like, oh, we're on our way,
but you know we got we just we have so
many stops. And I was like well, but he's like ah,
He's like like forty five more minutes, and I was like, okay,
all right. Then I called Natalia, how far are you?
And now she's moving. So then she finally she gets home.
Speaker 2: But how's gonna tell okay, because she does she has
supper cables in her car.
Speaker 1: No, but we can go to the gas station, buy
the jumper cables, come back and use her car to
jump start lyya, so she can go take a nap
and I can go take a nap. Okay. My head
was like my like sinuses were killing me. Anyway, so
Natalia is like I'm almost there. I'm almost there, and
she comes home and I should have told her just
stop at the store at the anyway, she turns around,
goes back to the gas station, gets and I go
ask him how to use the jumper cables because I've
never forgot but you can just google it, like you
can google it, right, But I go, just ask the guy.
So she comes back with the jumper gables. I go,
did the did you ask the guy? And she goes yeah,
and I go what did he say? And he said
google it. It's like I don't know google it, so okay.
So then we get in the top me Italia's car
goes up to the Lila's car. She gets in front
of it. Now Sonny's home, so he's like, I think
I know how to do it. I let me do it.
So he comes down. We're all standing there. We opened
Lila's car and her battery is easy pas, it's right there,
negative positive boom. We'll put up Natalia's car. Where's the battery?
Oh no, cannot find the battery anywhere, and like trying
to lift shit like break I don't like plastic covering.
We're like trying to find the battery. I call Mike,
I like face time with him, and he was like, oh,
He's like, it could be in her trunk, and so
I like go to the trunk. Meanwhile, her trunk is
filled with shit, clothes, volleyball like tennis shoes, Like you
know when you have to lift the bottom of the
the thing. I'm looking. I lifted up. No battery there.
So now Mike's like, hold on. So now Mike's on
the phone, but he's googling where's the battery on Natalia's car.
He's like, go to the left, go to the there's
like this area where you just lift this flap and
there it is. There's the battery. So we find the battery.
And then somehow Sonny knew, so he could Sonny connected
the battery, but he knew to take the black and
ground it. You don't need to put the black on
Natalia's car, you just have to like attach it to
her hood. I didn't know that, okay, I thought it
was negative and positive and boy, so he knew that.
And Mike was like, yeah, that's what you do. Started
the car. She got it started, boom, Okay, it's running.
I was like, well, wait a minute, go for a
little drive around the block. First, you know, stalls out again.
Oh no, yeah yeah, and not in a convenience spot either.
In the mill street. Now neighbors are like, you guys
need help, and we're like, no, we got it. Anyway,
jump started, so I left. I was like, you guys
know what you're doing. Good bye bye, because they were
like cause Sonny's like, I got it, Mom, just get
out of the way. I was like, all right, I'm
going back to my house. Anyway, they jump started again
and they were off on their way and she got
all the way home. She got all the way home. Yeah,
but it took two jump starts. Oh god, after a
car sat there for two months.
Speaker 2: Such a nightmare.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know what, the kids now know how
to fucking jump start their car. And Natalian knows where
her battery is in her car, and she has spark
plugs and a gas tank gas can in her car.
Speaker 2: Nice. Yeah, I cannot believe. I mean, I know this
was Tuesday's episode, but I can't believe she ran out
of gas. I can, Yeah, although I have been close,
so I don't know who am I to judge, because
I've had a couple of trips where I was driving
home with all the kids in the car I met.
My biggest one was fourth of July. We were totally
on e and then we'd gone to this you were
on tree club, was on the gas tank on empty,
on empty yeah.
Speaker 1: And because it was Fourth of July, we were on.
Speaker 2: We were roll amazing, we were rolling. It was so
fun to see the fireworks that way. But then right
then you start to come down. Yeah, paranoid. Yeah, no,
I don't know what happens on e I've never done
it either. You've never done it either. No, Okay, yeah,
people say it's amazing. That's the one drug that I'm like, oh,
I had to quit before I ever tried that.
Speaker 1: Now, you know, I hear it's amazing, but I hear
also like the down, Like my friends were doing it
back when, like in our twenties, and I was always
afraid because they would hit the comdown was really bad,
and I was like, that looks terrible. I'll just smoke pot.
Speaker 2: When I used to do cocaine, I mean, people loved it,
and I loved it for like ten minutes, right, It's like,
oh my god, this is the most incredible feeling. But
as soon what is that great high was done and
it was like literally like ten to twenty minutes, Yeah,
until it starts, you start to go, well now I
need more. Yeah, and then you could never get that
feeling back. The comedown for me was so god awful,
I am. That's really why I quit, right.
Speaker 1: I know. I remember when I went on that trip
with my friend, that Amy Amy. I didn't even give
her a face.
Speaker 2: Losing kids, Yeah not her kids are keys close closter keys.
Speaker 1: Yes, last keys. I was like, fuck this bitch. But yeah, wait,
oh you were on e you run on empty.
Speaker 2: And I don't know why I hadn't gotten gas before,
but we were in a mini van, which eats gas.
I don't remember why we were so low, but we
had gotten lower. We were at a country club, so
we had gone the other way because we were like, well,
we got to hit a gas station before we anyway,
there were no gas stations, so we ended up having
to turn around, and I was so weting bullets. I
was like, we're going to run out of gas. And
coming down we were coming down like receive a boulevard
and all these people were coming from the same country club,
so it was bumper to bumper traffic, and I was
having such a heart attack because I'm like, how is
the tow truck going to get to us?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: It's not They're not going to be able to, Like,
we're gonna have to pull off the road. It's gonna
take the tow truck two hours. The kids are getting upset. John,
it's like, everybody calmed the fuck down. We're gonna be fine.
We're not going to run out of gas. And I
was like, how can you say that? We're like below
empty right anyway, we made it down.
Speaker 1: Oh you made us Yeah, I mean it's the worst.
When I had the Tesla for the very first time,
it's like a it's like an iPhone, so it's like
the Batman, like the battery is going. It was like
ten o'clock at night on the two ten freeway. It's dark,
and I was just like, yeah, I think I get
and that's like one percent. I'm almost home, Like no problemo.
Everything goes dark and that's it. You're just done. And
they have to flatbed at home too, Like they can't
just oh I don't remember why, but yeah, they had
to put it on a flatbed.
Speaker 2: They couldn't juice it up.
Speaker 1: No, they can't. You got to get it told back
home and then well then at home you have the
charger at home.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't have like mobile chargers that they can
help you with an electric car, not that.
Speaker 1: I'm aware of. They didn't back then. Maybe now, but
no they do now. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: No nightmare. One time when I was in my twenties,
like early twenties, drunk driving my stupid Mazda, Like you know,
I don't know how drunk I was. I'm not bragging
about being drunk people, I'm just stating the facts. The
facts were that I was probably been drinking. And I'm
driving on like some freaking like the one ten. You know,
I'm out somewhere far that you don't want to be
a run out of gas. I'm wearing a super tight skirt,
like a really tight skirt, and like some kind of
like satine blouse, like a super tight skirt and a
big wide belt, you know it, and pumps, oh yeah,
and I'm out of gas and I have to get
out of my car, and I'm I'm just starting walking
on the freaking highway, walking down the highway, don't know
where I'm going, Like I didn't have cell you didn't
have cell phones. So I'm trying to get to like
this is the eighties, you know, or maybe ninety eighties,
probably late eighties. I'm trying to walk to the nearest
exit so that i can go find a payphone. Some
guy pulls over. This is how close I was to
getting murdered, Like crazy close to getting murdered. Some guy
pulls up, He's like, hey, you need a ride? Like
kind of.
Speaker 1: Not with you.
Speaker 2: I was buzzed, but like so, I mean he seemed nice.
So I'm like, okay, yeah, come hop in. I'll take
you to the gas station. I'm like okay, oh my gosh. Shockingly,
he drove me to the gas station. We got some
gas in a thing, and he drove me back to
my car and put the gas in my car.
Speaker 1: See, there are good Samaritans out there.
Speaker 2: You probably did try to ask for my number, and
I probably gave him a fake number. But still, yeah,
how did I not get out?
Speaker 1: That's insane? Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 2: Was that not a dateline?
Speaker 1: I know you could have been a dateline. I could
have been talking to Susannah brisk about you right now.
See the dayline episode A girl in the eighties.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd be like, I mean those are the kind
of episodes.
Speaker 1: I like, It's like a girl my age dress, Like
that's how I would dress, like close my hoties.
Speaker 2: My god.
Speaker 1: The worst we had to talk about Scott Peterson.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yes, I just wanted to tell you
one quick story before we'd get to our shows, which
is just that. So I took Xander. So you'll if
you if you listen to Patreon, you'll kind of know
the thing that I was doing. But I went to
a meet and greet for Xander's college with Xander. What

about Exander. I got some parents, I'm gonna get some info.
You're good members for you Yeah, yeah, And it was
really fun. It was really nice. Just so I was
at the school or was it No, it was somebody's house.
It was somebody's house in Sherman Oaks who volunteered to
hold an official like Chapman Welcome. That's really click get
together for two hours, like I said, in the middle
of the day on Saturday. Now, if you listen to
our episode on Tuesday, I wasn't feeling great, but I
rallied in order to do I was like, nope. John
kept saying just don't go, Like I was like, nope, go,
I'm really glad I did every So they did this
whole like little presentation where they did like a Q
and A. And of course I asked questions, but Xander
doesn't get embarrassed by that kind of stuff. Yeah, my
other two don't like me to talk. But Sander's like, Mom,
I heard you asking questions from the other room. You
had some good questions, basically, just like if they don't
have a car, what is there? Like, what's the nearest
how do they get home? I'm talking to other people
that all live near me, so got some good information there.
Apparently Chapman is right near It's like a ten minute
walk from the train station. Oh so they can take
the train to Union station go pick them up.
Speaker 1: That's easy. That's got That's nice. But yeah, yeah, so.

He met a couple kids, which is all I wanted
for him. Who are going to be in his dorm

Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So he's like already like he's like, I'm overwhelmed
because there's so many clubs, so many things I want

All right, So you've been listening to an old podcast
that we love, yes, right, which was what it was?
Speaker 2: It called Teal Swan When you want the Teal Swan? Yeah,
wasn't there also a documentary on h On Who. Yes,
it was so good. But I started listening to you know,
I was feeling really nauseous, so I couldn't really watch TV,
so I was like, I'll just listen to the podcast,
and I listened to the whole thing again and oh
my god, so good. Yeah.
Speaker 1: She was the she was a cult leader that I
can't remember what her deal was or like she wasn't
the one that was turning purple and died and they
carried her. No, that was the god. That was the mom,
the goddess.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, no, Teal Swan is like long brown hair,
was like really good looking and was like constantly marrying
you guys, and I mean a little bit similar that
one was like mother, mother god something.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, Teal Swan does like this online. It's it's very
it's very very culty. And her whole thing is I'm
trying to think of how to put this, but she
she got accused of like letting people like commit suicide
or die by suicide. She was like people would say
I'm suicidal, and her whole thing was being very alternative
about it and being like, well, you know, death is
like really awesome. It's great, right, Yes, it's like the
greatest feeling ever, like when you die by suicide.
Speaker 1: Right. So, because she's done it, like, how do hell?
Speaker 2: She know?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy. I can't how do these people start?
Didn't we want to start a cult? Like how do
these people? Like she's young, She's like, how do you
start these cults? Like the Twin Flames?
Speaker 2: I don't know, but oh I watched the Twin Flames
one too. I watched the documentary. I think last week
I told you I've listened to the podcast. I watched
that documentary, right, I am telling you this. Losing my
memory has never been better. Matter like amazing. I've seen
the Twin Flames documentary more than once. I've listened to
the podcast like four times. Felt like it was Brandi's.
I was like, oh my god, I forgot Oh I
forgot about her.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, so good. I forgot about her. He
is such an asshole. I just remember like he was
just so do she and like like spending money on car.
Speaker 2: Twin Flames guy?
Speaker 1: Yes, oh yeah.
Speaker 2: And then he was like, okay, guys, I figured something out.
Like I saw a picture of Jesus and I saw
it and then look at me like, there you go,
I'm Jesus.
Speaker 1: People are like, oh my god, yes, I see it.
I see the resemblance. You get the blue eyes and
the long hair and the go tee yes, yeah, there's Jesus.
Jesus are God right, how does that happen? I just
don't get it.
Speaker 2: But so, but you watched the Scott Peterson thing. I'm
gonna tell you why I did not watch it because.
Speaker 1: I didn't even bother texting you about it.
Speaker 2: I was just like, no, they keep trying to come out.
First of all, we love we love a some market I,
but we have to make fun of him when he's like, no,
he's innocent. No, he's not innocent. There is so much
evidence of his guilt, and people are like, people get
online and they're like, nope, I watched the documentary. There's
a really plausible deniability. Like okay, then who did it?
Then they're like, well, best guess is the burglary the
people that were okay, well that happened after after she disappeared,
right fucking anyway.
Speaker 1: So this is a two part Yeah, so he is
no Karen Reid. Okay, he is guilty. But this is
a two parter. And it follows this lawyer that's been
following the case for years and he believed it's not
Mark IGOs, it's not Mark Ergo, but Garagos is in
it throughout the whole thing. Oh, by the way, I
just say something about Garagos. Remember I was telling you
last week about I had to reach out to Geragos. Yes,
so really quick. Olga is working with this family and
this the mom of the family had some medical procedures
that went wrong, and she really wants to help this family.
So she reached out to me and she's like, can
you reach out to Geragos? And I'm like all right,
Like I hate doing that, you know, I hate asking
for favors, But for Olga, I was like all right.
She's like I know that he's a criminal defense attorney,
but maybe he knows. Anyway, reached out to him, like
within not even three minutes, like immediately. Actually, my partner
of my firm handles these kind of cases. Here's my email,
here's his email, tell her to tell her to reach
out to us. Wow. Yeah, and then he was like
good to hear from you. Missed you And I was like,
miss you too. Thanks. Mark, such a nice guy. But anyway,
he's delusional when it comes to Scott Peterson because he
still thanks. Scott Peterson is innocent, so it's a two parter.
Speaker 2: I feel like he doesn't think that, but he has
to because remember where there was like certain things that
it was like come on, Mark, but but they have to.
If you're the defense attorney, you can't feel like.
Speaker 1: I mean, he probably did it right right to never
I know, but you can't tell because I mean we
talked to him on our podcast about it, maintain and
then like in private, I've We've asked, I've asked him
about it.
Speaker 2: It's not even in private probably allowed to go. No
he's not really did it, no, but no.
Speaker 1: In private, he's like, I absolutely believe he's innocent. So
this guy they're trying to like it's then La Innocent Project, Okay.
Speaker 2: Which is different by the way, right, you were saying,
what is the difference. La Innocence Project is kind of
a like a Republican organization, right, but not the same
thing as as the National Innocence Project National, they don't
take the same kind of cases.
Speaker 1: But isn't there like one for every city. Isn't there
like the New York Innocent Project?
Speaker 2: Maybe, Like I just know that the woman from Orange
County Housewives. Yes, I'm constantly like the La Innocence Project
and talking about she's not that much of a do gooder.
She's right, she's super right wing. Right, it's mixed. This
is like a little bit political, is my point. Okay,
So it's they just the do gooders.
Speaker 1: So they are trying to now come up with this
new here's oh, they're saying that the science has gotten
so much better since back twenty years ago that they're saying, Okay,
So first of all, first of all, they start out
with like this is ridiculous. They're like, okay, let's retrace
his steps. So they go to the house of the
Scott Peterson home and he's like, apparently, according to the prosecution,
he was carried the body out in broad daylight and
put the body in the back of his car, in
the back of his truck. And it's like, but no
neighbors saw that. And it's like, well no, because he
was putting umbrellas in the back of his truck, which
are kind of like as long as a body, and
then he brought her out in a tarp. Like I'm
not gonna like, if I see my neighbor carrying something
heavy in a tar, I'm not gonna be like, gee,
what do you got underneath?
Speaker 2: There?
Speaker 1: Is that your wife? You got?
Speaker 2: Like come on?
Speaker 1: And then it's like then they go to the but
then he goes to the harbor, and then then he
puts the body in the daylight into the nobody sees him.
Like he's gotten lucky that nobody saw him carrying a body.
I'm like, nobody's looking for people, nobody's paying it anyway,
so they do that.
Speaker 2: Also, he's probably looking around to make sure nobody's.
Speaker 1: Seeing him, right right. Of course, he's like he's camouflage.
Speaker 2: There's a group of people hanging out, He'll just move
the body right right, Hey, guys, nothing to see here.
Speaker 1: Don't worry about what I'm doing.
Speaker 2: He's gonna wait till nobody's.
Speaker 1: Freaking looking right exactly. So, then and didn't he go
there at like five in the morning, I can't remember
what is now They said it was in the middle
morning or that's and he went to the boat. Yeah,
when he took to the boat. Then they said, like
she knew about the boat, the la this is what
they're saying, she knew about that. He was like, he
said that, oh, my wife knew about the boat, and
prosecutions like I don't think so, you just bought the
boat the day before or whatever, and.
Speaker 2: Her family he was like, no, she didn't. She would
have told her to tell us he bought a boat.
Speaker 1: So then they find like her handwriting that says like
marina or like ordering like anchors for the boat. And
they had like an expert looking at that's her writing,
not his writing, so obviously that shows that she knew
about the boat. Then they're like then they then they're
like she was All these neighbors said that they saw
pregnant lady walking the Golden Retriever at ten am that
morning of Christmas Eve, which would you know, exonerate him
or whatever, and that like the cops never talked to
the neighbors, but then they did, but then they destroyed
the cops destroyed evidence, and the cops didn't like report it.
All these things. Then they said, the science is different
now so that they are like doing this whole tide,
like the bodies. So the body showed up near where
he was in his boat. He was off of this
block island or whatever.
Speaker 2: Right now they're trying to say he was framed. That
the burglars knew somehow that he was going to be
out in the marina, and they're like, oh, we'll drop
her body in the marina. They dropped apparently nobody saw
them either, but because they didn't see.
Speaker 1: Scott, like, yeah, that didn't happen.
Speaker 2: So the burglars were like, you know what, we're gonna
also kill somebody. And then we're gonna plot we're just
regular burglars, but we're gonna plot framing it on the
husband exactly, but not directly. We're gonna leave it in
the marina where he where we happen to know that
he goes fishing, right, so that when the body does turn.
Speaker 1: Up, it looks like it said yes, exactly. So there
was that robbery across the street. Then they were saying
like she came out and confronted the robbery first of
all and said like, hey, get out of here before
I call the cops. If you're fucking eight months pregnant
and you've seen in a robbery in progress and a
bunch of shady guys across the street with a van,
you go inside and get behind the window and watch
them and call nine one one. You don't come out
there like hey, motherfuckers, I'm gonna kick your ass if
you don't get Clint Eastwood, right.
Speaker 2: That's what it is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know it is. It was so ridiculous, like, yeah,
so it was a two. It was two episodes of
two almost It was like an hour a half each
episode of this.
Speaker 2: They've done this before though, where it's been like okay,
new documentary about Scott Peterson. I don't know. There's a
lot of money behind this. I guess, yeah, saying that
Mark Gerrgos is financing these projects. But like, I hate
it when then I go on Reddit and people are like, yep,
he's innocent. It's like, oh my.
Speaker 1: God, I know. And they interview Garrgos and it's so
funny because they show Garrygos like they always show back then,
twenty years ago and he's sitting next to Scott Peterson
and he looks so dorky, like he's got that like
handlebar mustache. Yeah, like kind of balding. And now it's
like you look at him and he's like what twenty
five years later, he's better looking than he was back then.
Speaker 2: I know he is a handsome fellow.
Speaker 1: He's a handsome fella. He's like a gray hair like
he's aged well. And he's funny too, He's very funny. Yeah,
we should get him on our show. We should.
Speaker 2: Would he come on?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, I know he's very busy.
Speaker 2: The only thing is I don't know how to He'd
have to come in because I know how to zoom
right right, or we'd have to get or Kaylin could
come in an engineer.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, it'd be fun to have him in. Yeah yeah,
a lot of what the Menendez I don't know.
Speaker 2: Weren't they supposed to get out?
Speaker 1: I guess, and I don't know. I guess it got
delayed or something because of the new attorney general.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So I don't know,
but we'll we'll keep let's look it up and keep
everybody up to date. But let's say hi to our friends.
