WEBVTT

1
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>So I found this list that this woman shared of

2
00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:26.839
<v Speaker 1>questions her dad asks her before she can invite her

3
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:32.439
<v Speaker 1>boyfriend over. And I'm curious to you guys' take on these.

4
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:40.759
<v Speaker 1>What are important personal stories that shaped who he is today? Okay?

5
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I mean I don't hate. I don't hate the idea

6
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:49.039
<v Speaker 1>behind that question, like do you know him? I think

7
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:51.840
<v Speaker 1>that's what the you know that I was trying to

8
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:52.079
<v Speaker 1>get to.

9
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.719
<v Speaker 2>I was almost curious as to that. I kind of

10
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.960
<v Speaker 2>figured that's what the case was. But like, it doesn't

11
00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:58.359
<v Speaker 2>say how long they've been together.

12
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:01.240
<v Speaker 1>No, this is for any This is just what the

13
00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 1>dad does before he can invite a boy. Is this

14
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:07.840
<v Speaker 1>girl exactly? What does that matter? Well?

15
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:12.519
<v Speaker 3>I mean is she a thirteen year old with a boyfriend?

16
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Or right? How many life experiences does he haven?

17
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:16.319
<v Speaker 3>Right?

18
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:16.799
<v Speaker 1>Right?

19
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:20.799
<v Speaker 3>Is this an adult woman who's hopefully going to marry

20
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 3>this human or this.

21
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Guy that I think if it's an adult human, then

22
00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:29.680
<v Speaker 1>this is weird. I think he's trying to like give

23
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 1>her tools to know on whether rather than.

24
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.480
<v Speaker 2>He's cute maybe like a sixteen seventeen year old girl.

25
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, so here's no where did he go to school?

26
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:43.439
<v Speaker 1>And did he graduate Okay, so this is definitely after

27
00:01:43.519 --> 00:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>high school, then maybe I think these are good questions.

28
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Like here, I'm trying to give you tools for when

29
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:55.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm dead. Okay, another word, or don't.

30
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:57.040
<v Speaker 3>Waste my time bringing him home. I don't want to

31
00:01:57.040 --> 00:01:59.519
<v Speaker 3>meet him if if you don't know enough about him.

32
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.959
<v Speaker 1>Does he have a family history of diabetes, blood disorders,

33
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:06.879
<v Speaker 1>sickle cell sickle cell disease, or cancers? Now we've taken

34
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>a turn here. Yeah, you just got black all of

35
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:11.840
<v Speaker 1>a sudden. Is he black? The girl that posted this

36
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:16.599
<v Speaker 1>was black? Okay, that makes sense. Then having those sickle.

37
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 2>Cell absolutely absolutely, you did not preempt us with what

38
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:22.439
<v Speaker 2>race she was.

39
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter, no, but that makes sense, it does.

40
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I if it's a white dad asked if

41
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 2>that could be perceived as extremely racist.

42
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that's what I'm saying. If I ask

43
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>all these diseases, I'm not judging. I'm just covering all

44
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:37.919
<v Speaker 1>the diseases, covering all of them. Has he ever had aides?

45
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Has he read sex? Said medical history, which I think

46
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>is weird. I think there's nothing wrong with trying to

47
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.639
<v Speaker 1>teach your kid like, hey, get to know someone. Oh yeah,

48
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:51.360
<v Speaker 1>ask questions but when you start going like the next one,

49
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:55.240
<v Speaker 1>does he have any past surgical procedures? I am not

50
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:59.680
<v Speaker 1>clear on what that would be important for other than

51
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:01.800
<v Speaker 1>to get to a deeper layer of information.

52
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:04.800
<v Speaker 3>Maybe plastic surgery. Was it?

53
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 1>Well? A lot of men don't have plastic surgery, and

54
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of them aren't spies.

55
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.439
<v Speaker 3>True, but I maybe it was for you know, if

56
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 3>you're thinking about having children with this person, don't expect

57
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:17.560
<v Speaker 3>them to necessarily look like that.

58
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.039
<v Speaker 1>Again, I think that question is like a really deep

59
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:23.560
<v Speaker 1>leveled we're trying to get into the third or fourth

60
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.639
<v Speaker 1>level of your life rather than I'm just trying to

61
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.639
<v Speaker 1>get to know you. Yeah, that question is a little bizarre.

62
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>You may be right, But if we're having that question,

63
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I think there's nothing wrong with asking your partner if

64
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:38.639
<v Speaker 1>they've had surgical procedure, but you're just coming over for dinner.

65
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's an important question rather than uh,

66
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:48.039
<v Speaker 1>what was your life like? What was growing up like? Oh?

67
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 1>My dad was never there and I was a latchkey

68
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>kid and I've never you know, used a fork. That

69
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of shit's important. I think when did you start dating?

70
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>And how many girls has he dated prior to you.

71
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>So I like this question, and I also don't like

72
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:10.120
<v Speaker 1>this question. I like this question from a dad's standpoint.

73
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't like this question on a I trust you

74
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 1>as somebody that uh is an offspring of mine? Right,

75
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 1>it feels like I don't trust you. I would agree

76
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:21.399
<v Speaker 1>with that.

77
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.680
<v Speaker 2>I I don't see what the point of it is

78
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.800
<v Speaker 2>because people, Yeah, it's the past. People date, and sometimes

79
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:31.480
<v Speaker 2>people date a lot of different people. Sometimes people just

80
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>don't date. Maybe just that one person he fell in

81
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:34.800
<v Speaker 2>love with the first piece of ass you got a

82
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:35.120
<v Speaker 2>hold of.

83
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Those people do exist. I don't think it's any of

84
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:41.079
<v Speaker 1>the dad's business. I don't disagree.

85
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:43.920
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't ask my daughter that I know she's dated

86
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.000
<v Speaker 2>people more than just one person.

87
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 1>I think. I don't care. I think a lot of

88
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:54.319
<v Speaker 1>parents try to parent in a reactionary way. For example, Hey,

89
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I want to bring this guy i'm dating over, Okay,

90
00:04:56.920 --> 00:05:00.439
<v Speaker 1>does he have any past surgical procedures? What's his family history?

91
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Does he have sickle? Sell like, that's not the time

92
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:06.199
<v Speaker 1>to parent. That is out the window at that.

93
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 2>Point, and you're not learning anything about the person. To me,

94
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:15.040
<v Speaker 2>I think their character is way more important. The boyfriend

95
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:18.720
<v Speaker 2>in this case, the character is way more important than

96
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:24.040
<v Speaker 2>the past surgical procedures or you know, stuff like that,

97
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:27.839
<v Speaker 2>and you don't get to find out. Maybe you can

98
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.639
<v Speaker 2>see what kind of character they are by asking these questions.

99
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I agree that character like, what's their character like? And

100
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:36.879
<v Speaker 1>maybe a question of what personal story shape. You can

101
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:42.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of give examples of that character, but ultimately you'll lie.

102
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>So your character I cannot judge until you are in

103
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>front of me. Until I see you conduct yourself in public,

104
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:54.600
<v Speaker 1>That will tell me your character. How you act when

105
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.879
<v Speaker 1>a grandma is on the street corner trying to cross

106
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:02.120
<v Speaker 1>the street. If you see trash, if you throw trash

107
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:03.879
<v Speaker 1>on there, you know what I'm saying, Like, I'm gonna

108
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>start judging your character off those behaviors. Do you hold

109
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>the door open for my daughter? I'm judging you in

110
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.079
<v Speaker 1>those moments. Another one, what does he do for a living?

111
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>That feels like a fair question. I think there's some

112
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.439
<v Speaker 1>primer questions, like to get me ready for the visit

113
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.920
<v Speaker 1>that are a fair game. Hey, what does he do

114
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:26.879
<v Speaker 1>for a living? He's a he's a copy machine salesman.

115
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, I mean it's better than being a crack salesman.

116
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:37.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. One of them you saw a business future, right,

117
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:42.439
<v Speaker 1>one of them you didn't. Who does he live with?

118
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Another great question?

119
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Okay, does he still live with his parents? Is he

120
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:50.519
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven and still living with parents? Okay? Or is

121
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:52.120
<v Speaker 2>he on his own? Does he every probably if he

122
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:55.040
<v Speaker 2>will copy printers or if he sells brek?

123
00:06:55.199 --> 00:07:00.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? True? Why did he break up with his last girlfriend? Again,

124
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.839
<v Speaker 1>we're into a question. I think that you should have

125
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.759
<v Speaker 1>had that seed planeted with your kid a long time

126
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:08.600
<v Speaker 1>ago to get to know someone and not just go

127
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:09.519
<v Speaker 1>off looks.

128
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:13.319
<v Speaker 2>But you said it before. What's it matter because they'll

129
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.160
<v Speaker 2>there's a chance, a good chance they'll just lie about it.

130
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:19.639
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't mean that because someone could lie, you shouldn't try

131
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:21.639
<v Speaker 1>to find out because then they can go well you

132
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't ask. It's on you, right at least if he goes,

133
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>oh he dated you know Lindsey, and you go, I know, Lindsay, Lindsay,

134
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>did you date George his piece of shit? Right? Yeah?

135
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Of me every day? Yeah? Uh? Does he make you

136
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:41.759
<v Speaker 1>feel supported and safe?

137
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:44.879
<v Speaker 3>It's a good question for a dad to ask a daughter.

138
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Yes, But here's my problem with that question. If she

139
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:52.519
<v Speaker 1>really likes him and he's I'm just gonna go with

140
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:55.959
<v Speaker 1>the leather jacket, you know, cigarettes rolled up in the

141
00:07:56.040 --> 00:08:00.079
<v Speaker 1>sleeve kind of shit. Ray yeah, well yeah yeah, but

142
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:06.199
<v Speaker 1>like that mentality. Ah, she's gonna tell him, Yes, a kid,

143
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:10.079
<v Speaker 1>unless you have a solid relationship with your kid, which

144
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:11.839
<v Speaker 1>if you did, you wouldn't need to ask these questions.

145
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:15.920
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna just say yes, yeah, right, because they want

146
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>to date them. What do you like most and least

147
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.439
<v Speaker 1>about him? I think that's a great question. That's probably

148
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>the best question on that list. And asking to me like.

149
00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Blood work, right, it's weird, man, unless it's like looking

150
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:35.039
<v Speaker 2>for like does he have a family history of cancer,

151
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:39.039
<v Speaker 2>like with the diabetes or whatever? If I get it,

152
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.440
<v Speaker 2>trying to see if there's long term here. But it's

153
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:44.240
<v Speaker 2>still weird.

154
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:47.840
<v Speaker 1>It is. It feels a little old school, right.

155
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 3>Like if he did have a history of cancer in

156
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:52.679
<v Speaker 3>his family, what she's supposed to just dump him?

157
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 1>Yes? Right? What answer here is gonna negate the situation

158
00:08:57.120 --> 00:08:59.960
<v Speaker 1>because a kid, if they really want to date this individual,

159
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 1>is going to circumvent that answer, right, And again I

160
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>think the works you've missed the chance for work by

161
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:11.879
<v Speaker 1>this point, and to set that stuff up, Yeah, my

162
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>kid goes, hey, I want to bring George over. I'm

163
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be I'm gonna be great. Let me ask you

164
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:17.960
<v Speaker 1>some questions about George so I know who he is,

165
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Not like I need to approve his visit in a

166
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:25.200
<v Speaker 1>home we share together, exactly. But you just bring him

167
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.200
<v Speaker 1>over and I'll ask him the question. Now that's a

168
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:32.559
<v Speaker 1>different thing. I got no problem whoever my daughter dates

169
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:34.919
<v Speaker 1>bringing over and making them feel uncomfortable.

170
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:37.120
<v Speaker 3>My dad was never like I want to make him

171
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.399
<v Speaker 3>feel uncomfortable. Like sure, he joked about, oh, when you

172
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.200
<v Speaker 3>start dating and bring a guy home, I'm going to

173
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.240
<v Speaker 3>be sure to cleaning my shotguns or something. But he

174
00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:47.480
<v Speaker 3>was It was very simple for him. If he could

175
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:49.919
<v Speaker 3>hold a conversation with a guy that I was seeing,

176
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:53.120
<v Speaker 3>then it was cool. But if he couldn't, if he

177
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:57.000
<v Speaker 3>could not converse with this gentleman, he wasn't for me.

178
00:09:57.279 --> 00:09:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So I think that's wild. Yeah, it was this great,

179
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>I know, but that's not an accurate red flag. Meeting

180
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:06.600
<v Speaker 1>the father of somebody your dating is incredibly nerve wracking, right,

181
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:10.720
<v Speaker 1>And to put make that be the threshold on whether

182
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:13.279
<v Speaker 1>they're worthy or not, it's hardly fair.

183
00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Right, What if he's just, you know, very charismatic and

184
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:17.879
<v Speaker 2>knows how to answer the question.

185
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Sure, but he did right the beaver. Uh it did work.

186
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:26.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean there was one guy in particular that I

187
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:29.120
<v Speaker 3>remember that I really crushed on, really hard, and he

188
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:31.159
<v Speaker 3>could not hold a conversation with me. It was like

189
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:36.080
<v Speaker 3>he was he was nervous and it didn't matter how

190
00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:39.519
<v Speaker 3>many times he would come over and he just might

191
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:41.600
<v Speaker 3>have was like, I can't get anything out of him,

192
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:44.720
<v Speaker 3>Like what did he want? He just wanted to hold

193
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:45.440
<v Speaker 3>a conversation.

194
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:47.039
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he didn't want to talk to your dad.

195
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:50.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but it didn't work out, right, But you know.

196
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:52.360
<v Speaker 1>But in the grand scheme of things, maybe he just

197
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to talk to your dad, right, Yeah, him

198
00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:58.919
<v Speaker 1>not talking to your dad hardly warranted whether you guys

199
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:02.399
<v Speaker 1>worked out or not. Well, I look where they're at now. No,

200
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:06.639
<v Speaker 1>I get the correlation, right, I get the correlation. But

201
00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:10.840
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't mean anything because maybe your husband met him.

202
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:13.519
<v Speaker 1>But would he have passed that test? You'd like to

203
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 1>think yes, right, but there's no way to know.

204
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:19.399
<v Speaker 3>Well, what's weird is the first night that I ran

205
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:23.039
<v Speaker 3>into my now husband. I was twenty two years old

206
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 3>and at a bar having dinner with my dad, and

207
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:30.039
<v Speaker 3>Kevin had came up and approached us, and we hadn't

208
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:35.080
<v Speaker 3>seen each other since high school. And I said, holy shit, Kevin,

209
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.320
<v Speaker 3>what's going on? And he was like, Lindsey Wow. And

210
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:41.000
<v Speaker 3>then he stuck his hand out and introduced himself to

211
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:42.919
<v Speaker 3>my dad right, and my dad was like, oh, do

212
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.039
<v Speaker 3>you have is your dad so and so? And he's like, no,

213
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 3>that's my uncle. He's like, oh, we work together. And

214
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:48.960
<v Speaker 3>they just started chatting.

215
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:52.039
<v Speaker 1>So your dad's went, yeah, your dad's all went down

216
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:58.759
<v Speaker 1>immediately because of somebody he knows. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just

217
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:02.840
<v Speaker 1>saying that those type of things hardly warrant a real

218
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:10.120
<v Speaker 1>threshold test in relationships, because any of these questions kids

219
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:16.720
<v Speaker 1>in dating is like wild. I found out yesterday, hold on,

220
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.759
<v Speaker 1>I got a day. I found out yesterday somebody I

221
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:27.320
<v Speaker 1>dated in high school died, right that. I told her

222
00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:30.279
<v Speaker 1>they died, But I didn't remind her I dated that. Oh.

223
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:37.080
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't mean. What are you talking about? What

224
00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:40.440
<v Speaker 1>define serious at that age? Well? Was it a high

225
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:44.320
<v Speaker 1>school sweetheart? What does that mean when you say serious?

226
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 1>What does that mean at that level? Did we talk

227
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:52.480
<v Speaker 1>about marriage? No? Were we married? No? Were you sexually

228
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:54.960
<v Speaker 1>active with her. I was trying to remember that. I

229
00:12:55.000 --> 00:13:00.399
<v Speaker 1>don't recall. Maybe that's horrible, but I don't. I don't

230
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:10.000
<v Speaker 1>think so. I don't think so. I can't get a handy. No, No,

231
00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:13.279
<v Speaker 1>we had a I think I had a really great relationship.

232
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:17.399
<v Speaker 1>I thought we had a Listen. I'm confident in my

233
00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 1>life I have caused unconsciously harmed people. I dated everybody

234
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:27.559
<v Speaker 1>ass But I don't think people are aware of that. No, no,

235
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:29.519
<v Speaker 1>hell no. They don't think about it until you go

236
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.919
<v Speaker 1>to therapy, and that brings that shit up. I can

237
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:37.000
<v Speaker 1>reflect on my life and know that there are people that,

238
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:41.799
<v Speaker 1>maybe on purpose and most of the time not on purpose,

239
00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:47.159
<v Speaker 1>that I have caused undo real harm on And maybe

240
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:50.600
<v Speaker 1>she was one of those people. I don't know. It's

241
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:53.759
<v Speaker 1>like my ex, my ex wife, right who died. I'm

242
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:57.799
<v Speaker 1>confident I caused harm on her. I don't know what it.

243
00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Was, right, she would probably say you did. She would

244
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:06.080
<v Speaker 2>probably and give you all kinds of examples. Probably probably likely.

245
00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:07.840
<v Speaker 2>But maybe it's because.

246
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Does that make me bad? Though? And great? And really

247
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:14.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm speaking in general terms, but like, does that make

248
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:15.519
<v Speaker 1>you bad? I don't think so.

249
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Cause trauma on somebody they can't and it sucks. But

250
00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 2>one could also say it's on them. You know, it's

251
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:29.480
<v Speaker 2>not your actions, it's it's their reactions that caused the trauma. Right,

252
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.960
<v Speaker 2>It's not anything you did, it's just how they reacted

253
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.879
<v Speaker 2>to it and how they continue to react to it

254
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:38.519
<v Speaker 2>that causes the trauma. I don't think it makes you

255
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:41.399
<v Speaker 2>a bad person. I'm sure there's people out there.

256
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:43.799
<v Speaker 1>That that that.

257
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.240
<v Speaker 2>That do things on purpose and to cause harm and

258
00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.399
<v Speaker 2>trauma to people, but I think a lot of us

259
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:51.559
<v Speaker 2>do it subconsciously. We don't even know that we're doing

260
00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:54.639
<v Speaker 2>it until way later down the road when they that

261
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:57.080
<v Speaker 2>other person has had their therapy s action and they're like,

262
00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:58.559
<v Speaker 2>you need to go talk to the therapist. Is like,

263
00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:00.120
<v Speaker 2>you really need to go talk to this person and

264
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:01.960
<v Speaker 2>so you can get over it. And then they come

265
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 2>back and they're like, hey, she's like, no, you did

266
00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:07.000
<v Speaker 2>some shit to me. Yeah, fucked me up pretty good.

267
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 2>And I didn't think about it at the time, but

268
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:12.159
<v Speaker 2>my therapist says so, And I just wanted to let

269
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:13.080
<v Speaker 2>you know that's how you feel.

270
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:14.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's how I feel. We'll come back. But to

271
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:17.639
<v Speaker 1>tie that up to what the list is, I got

272
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.879
<v Speaker 1>cross with her dad, oh wow, and like to the

273
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:22.759
<v Speaker 1>point where like he got mad at me, and he

274
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:26.679
<v Speaker 1>was a he was a very large presence of an individual,

275
00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>even though I was in high school. I mean just

276
00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>he was a he was a large man. Yeah, And

277
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:36.559
<v Speaker 1>every any trouble I got in with him was all

278
00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:40.440
<v Speaker 1>because of her getting caught drinking all these things, because

279
00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:43.919
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't drinking she was. But I got in trouble

280
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.039
<v Speaker 1>because I was the older one, oh right, and they

281
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:50.080
<v Speaker 1>just pinned it on me. And I didn't throw under

282
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:53.279
<v Speaker 1>the bus, and but I got cross with him, and

283
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:56.519
<v Speaker 1>I didn't mean I did anything wrong. So my point

284
00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:58.720
<v Speaker 1>being is that those things there's no way to know

285
00:15:59.080 --> 00:16:02.679
<v Speaker 1>right now. As far as I don't think you, I

286
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.759
<v Speaker 1>don't think people militia, people sit down and plan to

287
00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:09.080
<v Speaker 1>do harmful things. I think, like, let's take a classic

288
00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:12.279
<v Speaker 1>example of like an abuser. I don't think an abuser goes,

289
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:15.720
<v Speaker 1>how can I abuse this person today? I think that's

290
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:19.200
<v Speaker 1>what they know. They think that's a relationship.

291
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:21.519
<v Speaker 2>That's fair to say, that's fair to say. They do

292
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:24.000
<v Speaker 2>it all subconsciously. You're the hero of your own story.

293
00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:28.600
<v Speaker 1>And so I don't I don't think people, well, some

294
00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:31.519
<v Speaker 1>people too I don't think so. I'm sure there's some people.

295
00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:35.480
<v Speaker 2>There's there's a small group of people that are just

296
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:38.759
<v Speaker 2>fucking hateful assholes that are like, oh, can't I destroy

297
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:40.200
<v Speaker 2>this person's world in the.

298
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.679
<v Speaker 1>Worst case scenario? Right? Hitler thought he was doing good

299
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.360
<v Speaker 1>right right, So I know he wasn't like, how can

300
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:51.240
<v Speaker 1>I hurt these people today? He was believing in the

301
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:54.399
<v Speaker 1>cause right right right, So to him, it wasn't bad.

302
00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:58.120
<v Speaker 1>He wasn't twiddling his thumbs in an evil way. Though

303
00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:01.720
<v Speaker 1>we know that now, I mean, we knew it. We

304
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:03.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of knew it. Then I could go down that

305
00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:04.200
<v Speaker 1>ratherittle I won't.

306
00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, maybe it is all subconscious, regardless of who you are.

307
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:09.359
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it is all subconscious. We don't mean to I

308
00:17:09.400 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 2>don't mean to hurt anybody. It happens. But again that

309
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:15.799
<v Speaker 2>goes back to is it is it something I did

310
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:17.799
<v Speaker 2>or is it just just your reaction?

311
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:20.599
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so this is okay, I'll go down. This is

312
00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:25.559
<v Speaker 1>fucking wild. So there's this theory that your subconscious doesn't exist.

313
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:27.799
<v Speaker 1>It's just a thing that we have said for a

314
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:31.039
<v Speaker 1>long time, that you have the subconscious that to almost

315
00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:35.359
<v Speaker 1>absolve you from responsibility, and that what happens is if

316
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you will, you have a case. You have a plethora

317
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:44.039
<v Speaker 1>of Marvel characters in your head and the majority of

318
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:47.400
<v Speaker 1>them are really bad actors in your mind, and you

319
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:52.799
<v Speaker 1>learned you have a managing of traffic air on who

320
00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:56.720
<v Speaker 1>you let run your life? Okay, sorry, and then you

321
00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:02.279
<v Speaker 1>say things like subconscious to absolve yourself like it wasn't me,

322
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:06.839
<v Speaker 1>it was my subpetious rather than you have these thoughts

323
00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:08.640
<v Speaker 1>or characters. You and I've kind of talked about this,

324
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.960
<v Speaker 1>that you have a responsibility to police the thoughts in

325
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:17.079
<v Speaker 1>your brain and go, I don't want to be that

326
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>type of person that every now and again that character

327
00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:25.119
<v Speaker 1>will get out and then it becomes normal. Right. It

328
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:29.200
<v Speaker 1>doesn't feel odd the more that that parcharacter is, yes,

329
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:30.400
<v Speaker 1>an abuser, think of like.

330
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:33.160
<v Speaker 3>An abuser or a serial killer who says, well, they

331
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:35.960
<v Speaker 3>were hookers and that's why I was correct.

332
00:18:36.039 --> 00:18:41.599
<v Speaker 1>Right. If you're choosing, hey, I shouldn't kill anybody regardless

333
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.519
<v Speaker 1>of what they do, just because I don't agree with it,

334
00:18:46.759 --> 00:18:49.880
<v Speaker 1>then then yeah, you would know that, Hey, that's not okay.

335
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.599
<v Speaker 1>What about the child molesters? Can we kill them? Yeah? Hot?

336
00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Take No, I don't think you should kill the child molesters,

337
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:58.920
<v Speaker 1>they should go through due process and be handled that way,

338
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:01.519
<v Speaker 1>and then what happens in the jailhouse stays in the jailhouse.

339
00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Is that big stand, I think is what it was

340
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:07.680
<v Speaker 2>the movie with Rob Schneider, and there's like Rob's like

341
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:09.720
<v Speaker 2>he runs the prison now right. I think I've talked

342
00:19:09.720 --> 00:19:11.519
<v Speaker 2>about this movie on this podcast before as a matter

343
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:14.200
<v Speaker 2>of fact, and it's like, all right, from here on out,

344
00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:18.000
<v Speaker 2>there's no more rape. And it goes one of those

345
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:20.000
<v Speaker 2>big things like brings this kid down. He's like, what

346
00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:21.519
<v Speaker 2>are you in here for? And he's like, I mean

347
00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:24.119
<v Speaker 2>here for twenty years for selling weed? And he's like, now,

348
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:27.599
<v Speaker 2>should this guy right here get raped every.

349
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:30.359
<v Speaker 1>Day for selling a little bit of weed? Right?

350
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:32.839
<v Speaker 2>No? And then one of the other inmates is like,

351
00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:34.640
<v Speaker 2>what about the child molesters?

352
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Can we rape them? And he's like, the punishment fits

353
00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:40.640
<v Speaker 1>the crime. I'm for it, Go for it. There's a

354
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:42.160
<v Speaker 1>comedian that tells I think I've said this on the

355
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:44.599
<v Speaker 1>air that he tells a funny thing about like we

356
00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:47.759
<v Speaker 1>all are pretty lucky that we're not child molesters, because

357
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:50.240
<v Speaker 1>if you think about it, when I was little, I

358
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:54.839
<v Speaker 1>liked little girls m but I don't need more, but

359
00:19:54.880 --> 00:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>I still love grape juice. Yeah, it's fair. We all

360
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 1>make our decisions. Now, was it your subconscious that said, no,

361
00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:09.839
<v Speaker 1>I need grape juice? I still like that? Right? At

362
00:20:09.839 --> 00:20:13.680
<v Speaker 1>some point you made the logical choice to not like

363
00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:17.519
<v Speaker 1>little girls anymore, but liking you know, sweet tarts was

364
00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:24.160
<v Speaker 1>still okay, right, and animal crackers. So what you're saying,

365
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:26.839
<v Speaker 1>Corbin's we all have a child in Lester inside us,

366
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:29.960
<v Speaker 1>but we just keep it down inside. Michael Berger at

367
00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:34.680
<v Speaker 1>iHeartMedia dot Com. No, you said that. I never said that.

368
00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:38.160
<v Speaker 1>But with that thought process, it explains why people, you know,

369
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:41.400
<v Speaker 1>go off the rocker, and you know, like you hear

370
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:44.039
<v Speaker 1>the statements of eyewitnesses going he was a great neighbor.

371
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:50.240
<v Speaker 1>There was never a problem until there was the idea

372
00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:54.799
<v Speaker 1>of like grilling your kid's date, Like what's more important

373
00:20:55.279 --> 00:21:03.480
<v Speaker 1>grilling and showing that you don't trust or I trust you?

374
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:09.200
<v Speaker 1>And it is what it is, Lindsey, I trust you.

375
00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:10.839
<v Speaker 3>What is it is? What it is?

376
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:15.079
<v Speaker 1>That's it hardly matters, right, Okay.

377
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.720
<v Speaker 3>You'll figure it out matters because you just have to

378
00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:21.960
<v Speaker 3>have faith in yourself that you raised someone who can

379
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:27.240
<v Speaker 3>find good character characteristics in people and bad ones, and

380
00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:28.799
<v Speaker 3>she'll figure it out on her own.

381
00:21:28.880 --> 00:21:33.160
<v Speaker 1>That series of questions hardly will decide if they're worth

382
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 1>being around, because you can pass all the tests. This

383
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 1>is what I was kind of saying with your dad

384
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:40.079
<v Speaker 1>and his if they can't hold a conversation, you can

385
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:45.039
<v Speaker 1>pass all the tests and it's still end Exactly. I

386
00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:48.119
<v Speaker 1>don't know about you. I think I'm a pretty good guy,

387
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and I've been in many relationships and they ended. Yeah.

388
00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:56.519
<v Speaker 1>Everything happens for a reason, and it isn't because I

389
00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:01.079
<v Speaker 1>did or didn't answer a question correctly, or or was

390
00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:07.480
<v Speaker 1>holding a conversation, or used the salad fork with salad,

391
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:14.400
<v Speaker 1>or haven't had sickle cell right. Yeah, I just think

392
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:17.440
<v Speaker 1>about these things like as you get older, you can

393
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:20.839
<v Speaker 1>do all the right steps and well, Jason Bateman's got

394
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.400
<v Speaker 1>a really great thing about being an actor, and he's asked,

395
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:25.079
<v Speaker 1>how do I become an actor? How do people come

396
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:27.880
<v Speaker 1>am an actor? And he's like, you know, the idea

397
00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:31.440
<v Speaker 1>that you can go to Juilliard and you can have

398
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:34.599
<v Speaker 1>the best acting coach and have the best agent and

399
00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:41.640
<v Speaker 1>still not get signed. Tells me it's about ninety percent luck, right, and.

400
00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:44.559
<v Speaker 2>Being brought into it as a young child and groomed

401
00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:45.960
<v Speaker 2>by Hollywood producers.

402
00:22:46.119 --> 00:22:51.079
<v Speaker 1>But even then, it's luck. How many people How many

403
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:54.240
<v Speaker 1>people do you think let take their kids to be actors?

404
00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Right, I'm sure there's a lot of people that want that.

405
00:22:57.400 --> 00:22:59.759
<v Speaker 2>They see their kid, you know, he's got some kind

406
00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:03.000
<v Speaker 2>of talent, whether it's singing or acting, like, oh, you

407
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:05.400
<v Speaker 2>should hold my mom took me for.

408
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh, Michael J.

409
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Fox movie.

410
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:11.960
<v Speaker 3>They were filming in Chicago, or doing auditions in Chicago,

411
00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:14.039
<v Speaker 3>and we drove because they were looking for a nine

412
00:23:14.079 --> 00:23:17.240
<v Speaker 3>year old girl with curly long hair, and I fit

413
00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 3>that mold. It was Life with Mikey was the name.

414
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I was going to ask what the movie was. Yes, yes,

415
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:29.200
<v Speaker 1>would you take your kids to do that? Yeah? I would.

416
00:23:29.319 --> 00:23:30.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if it was some if they would.

417
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Want to go, sure, sure, that's it. That's a fun

418
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:38.440
<v Speaker 1>way to word that. If there was something you knew

419
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:42.680
<v Speaker 1>is not good for them, would you encourage them to

420
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 1>do it because they are expressing interest?

421
00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:50.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I let my kid play football. It's

422
00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:52.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, not necessarily good for them, right.

423
00:23:54.359 --> 00:23:55.599
<v Speaker 1>So yes, I would.

424
00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:59.000
<v Speaker 3>However, I think I would make sure that I was

425
00:23:59.000 --> 00:24:00.599
<v Speaker 3>there every step of the way.

426
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:06.720
<v Speaker 1>So I could be involved. Until you know a movie

427
00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:09.000
<v Speaker 1>that Ryan Roolds is on and he is like, hey,

428
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:10.559
<v Speaker 1>come talk to me over here, and then you not

429
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:11.559
<v Speaker 1>have eyes on your kid.

430
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:13.519
<v Speaker 2>Or hang out on my trailer for a little bit. Right,

431
00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:15.039
<v Speaker 2>so you the real Deadpool?

432
00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? What about you gimp?

433
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:17.000
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

434
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:19.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, them figured out on your own. That's the thing

435
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:20.720
<v Speaker 2>about life, man, You got to figure it out on

436
00:24:20.759 --> 00:24:22.920
<v Speaker 2>your own. You gotta let them figure out on it.

437
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:25.079
<v Speaker 2>You can protect your kids or try to protect them

438
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:29.119
<v Speaker 2>until the fucking day is done, and then things are

439
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:30.319
<v Speaker 2>gonna happen regardless.

440
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know what I mean.

441
00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:35.440
<v Speaker 2>And if they're expressing interest in this and they want

442
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.200
<v Speaker 2>to do it, go for it.

443
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Have had it.

444
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:40.359
<v Speaker 2>That will support you one hundred percent. I'll be there

445
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:44.240
<v Speaker 2>if it falls apart. Yeah, but you got to figure

446
00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:48.359
<v Speaker 2>that on your own. I cannot. I cannot protect you

447
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:51.119
<v Speaker 2>all the time, right.

448
00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:53.759
<v Speaker 1>I just can't. It's impossible. Right. I don't disagree with that.

449
00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:56.200
<v Speaker 1>That doesn't mean I'm knocking on too now. And I

450
00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:58.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of have the attitude of if you wanted to

451
00:24:58.960 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 1>sell drugs, would I let you? Okay, what's the answer.

452
00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:04.960
<v Speaker 2>No?

453
00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Why not? They're showing interest because it's illegal? Well, so

454
00:25:09.039 --> 00:25:12.279
<v Speaker 1>what we just made an argument both of you did

455
00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:14.000
<v Speaker 1>that they should be able to do whatever they want.

456
00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:19.039
<v Speaker 1>I love them, do it well, then sell tic TACs Like, no,

457
00:25:19.160 --> 00:25:19.799
<v Speaker 1>you don't know.

458
00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Now, you're changing what they want to do, right, right,

459
00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:25.039
<v Speaker 2>you can't do that. If they want to sell drugs,

460
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:25.839
<v Speaker 2>let them do it.

461
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:28.839
<v Speaker 1>They've got the question. No, they've got to figure it out.

462
00:25:28.920 --> 00:25:31.160
<v Speaker 2>They've got to figure it out that like, Okay, this

463
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:32.559
<v Speaker 2>is something you want to do, but there are also

464
00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:35.799
<v Speaker 2>consequences that go with it, and you can't protect.

465
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Them all the time.

466
00:25:36.400 --> 00:25:38.319
<v Speaker 2>So if they want to go and fucking sell drugs,

467
00:25:38.359 --> 00:25:40.079
<v Speaker 2>then go fucking sell drugs.

468
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Just know that if you get caught, you're fucked.

469
00:25:43.599 --> 00:25:46.440
<v Speaker 2>You're in jail, and I'll be there to bail you out,

470
00:25:46.640 --> 00:25:48.599
<v Speaker 2>and I'll go to your court I'll go to your

471
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:49.559
<v Speaker 2>courtrooms with you.

472
00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:53.440
<v Speaker 3>But told them there's consequences.

473
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Because they have to learn on their own. But it

474
00:25:55.319 --> 00:25:58.480
<v Speaker 1>doesn't bailing them out show them that there's an out. Yeah,

475
00:25:58.480 --> 00:25:59.599
<v Speaker 1>that you're enabling it.

476
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:02.720
<v Speaker 2>Give them that one free pass like my parents told me.

477
00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:05.160
<v Speaker 2>And if it's only had to been done one, I

478
00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:08.559
<v Speaker 2>will bail you out of jail one time. After that,

479
00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:11.680
<v Speaker 2>no more, my friend will do it. I'll bail you

480
00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:14.759
<v Speaker 2>out of jail one time, and I would do it

481
00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:17.599
<v Speaker 2>for either one of my kids. If all three of

482
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:19.680
<v Speaker 2>them got fucking all three of them got locked up

483
00:26:19.680 --> 00:26:22.079
<v Speaker 2>at the same time, then shit, all right done, all

484
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:25.160
<v Speaker 2>three of you done used your card. But I did

485
00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:27.880
<v Speaker 2>it once. I belgi out one time. The rest of that,

486
00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:30.559
<v Speaker 2>you're on your own. You gotta figure, you gotta learn.

487
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm not far from what you're saying. Like I

488
00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:35.839
<v Speaker 1>believe you've got to give your kids room to make mistakes,

489
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:38.359
<v Speaker 1>but I think I have a responsibility to try and

490
00:26:38.440 --> 00:26:40.599
<v Speaker 1>keep you out of danger as best as possible, right,

491
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:45.039
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes that might mean you're not selling drugs, And

492
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:47.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you should be a child actor again.

493
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:51.200
<v Speaker 2>But this goes back to you know, my daughter's dating

494
00:26:51.200 --> 00:26:52.000
<v Speaker 2>a black guy.

495
00:26:52.119 --> 00:26:54.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't want you dating that black guy.

496
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:56.039
<v Speaker 1>She'd go fucking do it anyway.

497
00:26:56.359 --> 00:26:58.920
<v Speaker 2>The more that you do anything that you push against them,

498
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:00.799
<v Speaker 2>they're going to do it anyway.

499
00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:04.599
<v Speaker 1>I just want to help clean you, help that clean

500
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:05.960
<v Speaker 1>that up of it. I don't think that's a fair

501
00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:09.279
<v Speaker 1>comparison to like something that is illegal, like who you

502
00:27:09.400 --> 00:27:11.799
<v Speaker 1>date that that is what it is, like that there

503
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:15.319
<v Speaker 1>is zero wrong there's a zero wrong person, right right right.

504
00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:18.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying that, like, whatever they want to do,

505
00:27:18.119 --> 00:27:21.039
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna do it anyway, regardless of what it is,

506
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:24.799
<v Speaker 2>whether it's dating somebody of another ethnicity, or whether it's

507
00:27:24.839 --> 00:27:28.440
<v Speaker 2>selling drugs or selling feet picks on fucking only fans,

508
00:27:28.759 --> 00:27:29.519
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna do.

509
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:31.799
<v Speaker 1>It anyway, and there's nothing I can do about it.

510
00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:33.599
<v Speaker 1>That is true. I I you and I agree on

511
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:35.759
<v Speaker 1>that one hundred percent. But when I signed up to

512
00:27:35.799 --> 00:27:39.599
<v Speaker 1>be a parent, I took on the responsibility of trying

513
00:27:39.640 --> 00:27:41.640
<v Speaker 1>to steer them away from those things.

514
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:45.599
<v Speaker 2>And that is fantastic until they turn eighteen, and then

515
00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:46.960
<v Speaker 2>they are they're their own people.

516
00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:48.359
<v Speaker 1>That's a different conversation with adults.

517
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:51.400
<v Speaker 2>And maybe that's why I'm like looking at things differently

518
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:54.319
<v Speaker 2>than you can. Your perspective exactly. All my kids are

519
00:27:54.359 --> 00:27:56.799
<v Speaker 2>all growing up. Every fucking one of them's eighteen and over.

520
00:27:56.839 --> 00:27:57.880
<v Speaker 1>They're all adults.

521
00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And who's just saying they could still get fucked

522
00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:03.079
<v Speaker 2>up later on down the road.

523
00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:04.359
<v Speaker 1>But listen, I did my part.

524
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:06.359
<v Speaker 2>I did my part and did everything I could to

525
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:09.799
<v Speaker 2>make sure that these people grow up to be upstanding citizens.

526
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:12.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, now they're adults and there's nothing I can

527
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:12.880
<v Speaker 2>read about it.

528
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think that's a fun question too, is

529
00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:19.920
<v Speaker 1>what is an upstanding citizen? Well, and and that's rhetorical

530
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:22.960
<v Speaker 1>that I think it's gonna be different for everybody. What

531
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:24.799
<v Speaker 1>is an ups Is it someone who goes to church

532
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:27.200
<v Speaker 1>every day? Is it someone who pays their taxes? Is

533
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:30.759
<v Speaker 1>it someone who? Are you a good person if you

534
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:34.119
<v Speaker 1>pay your taxes but also work in arms deals?

535
00:28:34.319 --> 00:28:34.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

536
00:28:34.599 --> 00:28:34.720
<v Speaker 3>Right?

537
00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you pay the taxes on the arms deals? Yeah?

538
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:41.319
<v Speaker 1>Do you see what I'm saying? Like, what's the movie

539
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:47.839
<v Speaker 1>with Denzel Washington and he's the drug guy in New York? No,

540
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:51.359
<v Speaker 1>he's that's a police officer. Yeah, still drugs involved, drugs

541
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:56.079
<v Speaker 1>are involved, but with t I and uh, he's the

542
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:57.880
<v Speaker 1>boss and he goes up to that guy and shoots

543
00:28:57.960 --> 00:28:59.599
<v Speaker 1>that guy in the other drug guy in the face.

544
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:01.440
<v Speaker 3>Was it something brothers?

545
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:08.599
<v Speaker 1>No? Anyway, in that movie, he's a good dude, but

546
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:13.799
<v Speaker 1>he's also not a good dude. So American gangster. Yeah

547
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:16.200
<v Speaker 1>that's what it is. Yeah. Yeah, he was a bad

548
00:29:16.240 --> 00:29:17.440
<v Speaker 1>motherfucker in that movie, but a.

549
00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Good person too, exactly for for his community.

550
00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:24.960
<v Speaker 1>So he was a good person but got there a

551
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:28.200
<v Speaker 1>different story. That's what I'm saying. He provided turkeys for

552
00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:30.400
<v Speaker 1>everybody and Thanksgiving. He took care of people in the

553
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:34.240
<v Speaker 1>neighborhood and they insulate. But you could argue he wasn't

554
00:29:34.279 --> 00:29:37.200
<v Speaker 1>good dude because he made those moves to insulate himself, right,

555
00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:38.319
<v Speaker 1>kind of like Dexter.

556
00:29:39.079 --> 00:29:43.200
<v Speaker 3>He was a serial killer, but he only killed bad

557
00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:43.920
<v Speaker 3>people that.

558
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Were He wasn't a good dude at all. No, Dexter's

559
00:29:46.839 --> 00:29:49.680
<v Speaker 1>not a good dude at all, no way, shape or

560
00:29:49.720 --> 00:29:53.279
<v Speaker 1>form he thought he was. He was that is a

561
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:58.319
<v Speaker 1>serial killer. They think they're doing good. These people, these

562
00:29:58.319 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 1>people that killed prostitutes, they think they're doing God's work.

563
00:30:03.279 --> 00:30:05.920
<v Speaker 1>That's what Dexter is doing. He thinks he's doing the

564
00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:13.079
<v Speaker 1>work of justice without judge or jury. Right, fascinating all

565
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:17.119
<v Speaker 1>because you want to know who's got sickle cell. I

566
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:19.799
<v Speaker 1>may start doing that with my daughters when they're of age.

567
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Does he have sickle cell? Right?

568
00:30:25.759 --> 00:30:25.799
<v Speaker 3>No?

569
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:30.039
<v Speaker 1>Does he like green peppers? There you go, it's the

570
00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:33.319
<v Speaker 1>hard hitting questions right there. Yeah, that's for me. I
