00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,879

Speaker 1: Oh boy, I'm dying. No, I'm kidding. You went to

8
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:35,920

9
00:00:36,039 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

10
00:00:36,399 --> 00:00:39,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, you opened up to me while we were.

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,119
Speaker 2: Not wearing masks in the lobby and the lobby and

12
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:45,840
you're like you better stand not just six feet twelve feet.

13
00:00:46,439 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: So you didn't mean it, didn't mean to, It just

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,280
sort of happened. So all right.

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: I think I talked about my girlfriend don before on

16
00:00:55,679 --> 00:00:57,600
Patreon maybe one time or something.

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,479
Speaker 1: I mentioned her. She the one with a head injury.

18
00:00:59,759 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, she fell in Vegas and yes, she had to

19
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,599
get stitches in her head. She was in the hospital

20
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,879
for like two, like ten days, right, yeah, yeah, and

21
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,920
she has like all these side effects ever since.

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,719
Speaker 4: Like she used to be able to drive no problem o.

23
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,959
I mean she was she was Glenn's first girlfriend right

24
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,959
when I met Glenn, and I didn't know Glenn had

25
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,920
a girlfriend. And I remember like being at Glenn's house swimming,

26
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,000
and then I remember seeing like red cowboy boots sticking

27
00:01:29,079 --> 00:01:31,439
out of the bushes. Did I tell you this? She

28
00:01:31,519 --> 00:01:33,359
was spying on us and she was going to kick

29
00:01:33,359 --> 00:01:35,680
my ass and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, so

30
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,319
we've been friend since I was fifteen, she was sixteen. Okay, Yeah,

31
00:01:40,439 --> 00:01:45,560
she was a spitfire back then. And yeah, so she

32
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,319
hasn't gone out in a long time. She had a

33
00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:49,719
bad falling out.

34
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: With her and her husband and these other another couple.

35
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 4: That I also grew up with. They were really close.

36
00:01:57,439 --> 00:01:58,640
They would travel all the time.

37
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,359
Speaker 2: But you know what's interesting is as they got older,

38
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,799
they had kids, right, so now their kids are are

39
00:02:03,879 --> 00:02:06,680
this around the same age, and they would go to Vegas.

40
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,879
They would go on vacations all the time. The two

41
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,400
families and the two kids grew up together. So the

42
00:02:14,479 --> 00:02:18,400
other couple, they have two boys, and then she's got

43
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:18,919
one daughter.

44
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 4: Don's got a daughter. Now they're all around the same age. Okay,

45
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,840
it's interesting because I mean this really isn't they Her

46
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,240
daughter ended up dating one of the boys. Their daughter

47
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,800
right now is twenty one, twenty two, so she's dating

48
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,759
one of the boys' best friend. Okay, hence, which just

49
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,560
caused a domino effect and just made people on both

50
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,599
sides upset about things. And I guess and they had

51
00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:53,919
a huge falling out, huge like I think that one

52
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,919
of the boys was jealous about it, even though that

53
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,000
she's like a sister.

54
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: Don's daughter is like a sister, had he always maybe

55
00:03:01,039 --> 00:03:02,159
carried a torch, I think.

56
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 4: So everybody, I mean everybody thinks that yeah, so or

57
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,879
he's too overprotective or something, and it just it caused

58
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,080
a lot of friction. And so now they don't talk.

59
00:03:13,319 --> 00:03:16,719
And that was like her. I mean, they got tattoos

60
00:03:16,719 --> 00:03:19,400
on their wrist, matching tattoos. They went to an all

61
00:03:19,439 --> 00:03:24,199
Catholic girls school and studio city together, and now they

62
00:03:24,199 --> 00:03:28,280
don't e macculate heart No Carvallis, Oh, I haven't heard

63
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:31,120
of it. It's not one of the big ones. It

64
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,280
was Carvalice. I wonder if anybody out there knows what

65
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:36,960
I'm talking. We have a lot of people that we

66
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,639
are from the valley, yeah, like the valley and stuff.

67
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,159
So yeah, so she my girlfriend, Don really hasn't had

68
00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:46,520
a lot of friends.

69
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: And so Suzanne and I try and keep up with

70
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,599
her and we keep in touch.

71
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,719
Speaker 2: But the patreon we did not to like uh out

72
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,199
the Patreon. But it had to do with the fact

73
00:03:57,199 --> 00:03:59,919
that other friends were kind of concerned about.

74
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,319
Speaker 1: Her right right, and her you know, brain injury. Right, Yeah,

75
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,639
but she's been acted a little bit weird before that.

76
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,240
She's always been a little kookie.

77
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's so hard to tell what's the difference

78
00:04:11,759 --> 00:04:14,360
between her and her brain injury.

79
00:04:14,599 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: Right.

80
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: It's funny though, because everybody she makes fun of her

81
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,439
brain injury. But but she and her husband are really close.

82
00:04:23,519 --> 00:04:25,519
They get you know, the daughters out of the house

83
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:29,560
and they've been married twenty three years. And I know

84
00:04:29,639 --> 00:04:31,480
Susanna and I have talked about it, like we should

85
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,240
have don over more off and we think she's lonely.

86
00:04:34,079 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: You know, blah blah blah.

87
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 4: So I was talking to her the other day and

88
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:40,920
I was like, don you know you, why don't you

89
00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:41,560
just come down?

90
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 2: Because she lives kind of far. I said, why don't

91
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,160
you just come down, spend spend the night with me.

92
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:49,000
I have a guest room, hang out with me, you know,

93
00:04:49,199 --> 00:04:50,519

94
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: Just come down.

95
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:55,199
Speaker 4: She loved it, like, oh my god, she was so excited.

96
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:58,639
You're talking about your Malibu house, yes, in Membo. Yeah,

97
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,759
so you had another like girls yes, another girl's weekend.

98
00:05:02,519 --> 00:05:06,680
So yeah, so she she was so.

99
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: Excited and I said, you know, well, just it's gotta

100
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,120
be like a special treat.

101
00:05:11,319 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 4: It was, Yeah, it really was. And she and Suzanne.

102
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,319
Suzanne was like she couldn't come, but she's like, Lynette,

103
00:05:20,399 --> 00:05:23,879
just know you're doing a good thing. I love Don

104
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,279
And she's like no, but I really Suzanne is a

105
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:28,360
worry wart, and she's like, I do worry about her

106
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,839
because she is by herself a lot, her husband works

107
00:05:31,879 --> 00:05:36,639
a lot. And so anyway, so she came down and coincidentally,

108
00:05:37,399 --> 00:05:43,600
Mike Gerstein is in town, okay, and Glenn sent me

109
00:05:43,639 --> 00:05:49,279
a text, and so Glen sent me our other friend Scott,

110
00:05:49,319 --> 00:05:53,600
who's really we're close with, and Mike Gerstein and and

111
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,879
said that there's a band, one of his friends's bands

112
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:02,600
playing at this like outdoor bar area in Ventura County.

113
00:06:02,959 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: Okay.

114
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 4: It just sort of close to Malibu, sort of. Yeah,

115
00:06:06,399 --> 00:06:09,120
like I wasised it. It was only like thirty five

116
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:13,079
forty minutes Okay. So I said to Don, Don, and

117
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,000
if you've had a couple of cocktails, you could do

118
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,759
that even faster.

119
00:06:16,079 --> 00:06:19,639
Speaker 2: Totally get there faster. It's a shame because I really

120
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:21,800
could get there faster. I didn't take uber.

121
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,199
Speaker 4: But yeah, so I said, like Don, her and Glenn were,

122
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,040
you know, boyfriend and girlfriend. They still are, They still talk,

123
00:06:30,199 --> 00:06:34,120
you know, right, They actually had a huge falling out

124
00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:35,120
over politics.

125
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,879
Speaker 2: Oh that oh yeah, Oh that's what the patreon was

126
00:06:38,959 --> 00:06:39,920
kind of about.

127
00:06:39,639 --> 00:06:40,439
Speaker 1: Too, right.

128
00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 4: She was like, she's she hates Trump and Glenn has

129
00:06:45,399 --> 00:06:49,759
always been conservative and he, you know, like they would argue.

130
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, I didn't get no.

131
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 4: They would constantly send me try and get me, like

132
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:55,279
they would send me a text. I would get this,

133
00:06:55,439 --> 00:06:57,240
Like all of a sudden, Glenn would send me a

134
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,800
text and said, Don fucking thinks I'm Don called me

135
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,040
a racist asshole.

136
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: I don't care. You guys argue this, what is this

137
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:04,600
nineteen eighty seven?

138
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you two are fucking arguing all over

139
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,399
all over again, Like, leave me out of it. They

140
00:07:10,399 --> 00:07:13,040
had a huge falling out after not falling out, but

141
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,000
they they bet a thousand dollars on the election. He

142
00:07:16,079 --> 00:07:19,600
took Trump, she took Biden, and he's pissed and he

143
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,720
took it out like he was yelling at her I

144
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,000
don't know.

145
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:22,959
Speaker 1: They got in a huge fight.

146
00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:25,839
Speaker 2: So when she came over on Saturday, I said, I

147
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:28,319
just got a text from Glenn and she's like, yeah,

148
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,319
I didn't get a text from Glenn. I said, well

149
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,839
I told him. I said that's crazy because Don's coming over.

150
00:07:33,959 --> 00:07:37,240
Maybe we will come, I don't know. And he was like, yeah,

151
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,959
I don't know. He said some shit about Don and

152
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,879
I go, yeah, I probably doesn't want to pay her

153
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,279
money exactly.

154
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,759
Speaker 1: Exactly, And.

155
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:49,959
Speaker 2: Are there any ATMs out there right Inventura? Yes, I

156
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,519
know for you to stop at before we get there.

157
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:57,439
She was like, pay up, motherfucker. So she was like, yeah,

158
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,920
Glenn didn't send me a tex. I go, it's fine, Glenn,

159
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,360
You're with me. He doesn't you know, Glenn, He's not

160
00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:06,120
going to be mad. And uh so she was really excited.

161
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 4: She goes, Lynette, I have not had like nobody like

162
00:08:08,959 --> 00:08:12,800
everybody else, like nobody's really done anything this year in

163
00:08:12,879 --> 00:08:15,199
twenty twenty, and she was like, I have not been

164
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,279
out of the house all year, like since the beginning.

165
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,800
You know, she really has been trying to you know,

166
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:23,360
heal and stuff from her injury.

167
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: So she's like, I would love to see everybody.

168
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 4: Oh my god, and I would too because I haven't

169
00:08:29,279 --> 00:08:30,600
seen Mike Gersteine a long time.

170
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: So I'm like, but let's check this place out. What

171
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:36,240
is it? Where is the band's playing? So it was

172
00:08:36,279 --> 00:08:37,559
an indoor outdoor.

173
00:08:37,759 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 4: The band was indoors, but they open it up so

174
00:08:40,279 --> 00:08:42,399
you can sit outdoor, and you know, it's one of

175
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:43,840
those kinds of places.

176
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: So you could be indoors. Yeah, there was people.

177
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: I thought, that's not a cloud yet or maybe Inventuridis maybe,

178
00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:54,279
or maybe they're considered indoor out I don't know, but yeah,

179
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,600
they had tables indoors.

180
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: Oh wow.

181
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 4: But Glenn got there early to reserve a table. And Glenn,

182
00:09:00,919 --> 00:09:02,919
even though he's a Trump he was a Trump supporter.

183
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,240
He he always like he believes in the masks and

184
00:09:07,279 --> 00:09:07,720
the COVID.

185
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: He's not that.

186
00:09:08,399 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: He's not that crazy. So he doesn't think that people

187
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,679
that wear masks or pussies.

188
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:20,759
Speaker 1: No, he doesn't. Wow, who the fuck would think that? Yeah,

189
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,200
he doesn't go that far. Okay.

190
00:09:22,279 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 4: You know he's got a wife and he's got three kids,

191
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:27,240
and I love that he's got three he's got three

192
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,759
daughters and a boy, which I love because he was

193
00:09:29,799 --> 00:09:32,480
such a dick when he was a teenager to girls,

194
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:38,120
especially to Dawn sou But now he's the sweetest guy anyway.

195
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,399
Speaker 2: So and Mike is a liberal, and so is Scott

196
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,360
the other ones. So I you know, I know that

197
00:09:44,399 --> 00:09:46,399
there's going to be arguing and stuff. I was like,

198
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,399
I'm excited. All right, let's go.

199
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:49,759
Speaker 1: I said, let's do it. Let's go.

200
00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:53,759
Speaker 2: So we'll wear our masks, will sit outside, and we'll

00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:56,960
take an uber. So we went and it was so

but I know they're not going to though.

236
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, it's already been ten years. I've been

237
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,200
doing the podcast ten years and you haven't thus far.

238
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,320
So I'm not that concerned. You're not going to all

239
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:19,200
of a sudden be.

240
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,279
Speaker 1: Like, listen, I finally listened to your podcast. It's not

241
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,879
gonna that's not gonna happen, except for with John.

242
00:11:25,879 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: And he always listens to the one time that I

243
00:11:29,639 --> 00:11:32,360
say something that upsets him single call him a dad

244
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,519
bought or oh yeah, to laugh about his single foot,

245
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,559
and that's the one he chooses to listen to. And

246
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:42,120
then I have to be confronted with him holding he

247
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,799
holds his phone up where he's recorded the one area,

248
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:48,320
and then I'm like, oh my god, how come you

249
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,720
don't listen to the rest of the episodes where I

250
00:11:50,759 --> 00:11:52,960
say other not so bad things about it. It's still

251
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:58,360
bad kidding John, I'm sure you're listening to this.

252
00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I know nobody else gives a shit.

253
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,919
Speaker 2: I go on like a John sabbatical for you know,

254
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,600
six months after the last bad thing, and then I

255
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,360
finally go it's like the groundhog coming out to just

256
00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:14,000
see what the I'm like, oh, he hasn't listened in

257
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,200
a really long time. I could complain about the complaining

258
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,720
things and then boom the hammer come yes totally, but anyway,

259
00:12:20,759 --> 00:12:23,120
go on, okay, yeah, so you're here, we go, we

260
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,320
get there, we get there.

261
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 4: We uh, you know, see everybody, they're all sitting outside.

262
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,279
They got a table and we're we're just it was

263
00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:31,879
so we're so happy to see each other.

264
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:33,039
Speaker 1: Everybody was hugging.

265
00:12:34,279 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 4: You know, and then we sit down and uh, and

266
00:12:38,159 --> 00:12:41,360
then I don't know, Like we were just talking and

267
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:43,679
having a good time, and the band wasn't coming on

268
00:12:43,879 --> 00:12:46,720
till like another hour from the time we got there, right,

269
00:12:46,919 --> 00:12:49,679
so you know, at least we could talk and not

270
00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:52,519
scream at each other. Once the band starts playing gets

271
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,000
loud with we didn't even notice. All of a sudden,

272
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,480
I look around, the fucking place is packed. Oh, the doors,

273
00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:05,240
the outdoors, everywhere, it was packed with people. And I'm

274
00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:07,720
going like, and luckily we were. We were in a

275
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,720
good spot. Otherwise I would say, and there is nothing

276
00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:14,440
else going on in that city, Like there's everything is

277
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,480
around us is shut down. It's not like we can go, hey,

278
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,000
let's go sit over there. There was nothing else.

279
00:13:20,159 --> 00:13:23,039
Speaker 2: In fact, it's weird because I almost went to go

280
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,679
see something in Ventura. It was a oh it was

281
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,279
the the y Yachte Crew band was playing, but they

282
00:13:31,279 --> 00:13:33,279
were at a drive in. But it was going to

283
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,240
be a whole cashaw really was yeah. I was like,

284
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,519
you buy a ticket. It's this big outdoor place Ventura.

285
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,039
It's like the Ventura Fairgrounds. OK, and then you have

286
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,200
to but it was like you pull up your car

287
00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:47,480
and then it's like for you buy a ticket for

288
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:50,360
this way in sections and it's a drive in, and

289
00:13:50,399 --> 00:13:52,799
I was like, and then they're like, you can't you

290
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,240
if you get outside of your car.

291
00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: You can be outside of your car, but.

292
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 2: Only if you're right next to your car, like you

293
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,279
could put a chair next right next to your car,

294
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,559
but you're within a little So they're very they're very strict,

295
00:14:05,759 --> 00:14:09,120
and it seemed like just not that fun right to

296
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:11,720
be in what's the Yeah, I know, sit in a

297
00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:15,679
car and listen to Yachtley Crew. Yeah, I mean, well,

298
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,279
you know me, I'd probably like that anyway, but it

299
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,200
seemed like a hassle to drive all the way to

300
00:14:20,279 --> 00:14:22,519
Ventura to be in my car at a drive in,

301
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,240
And I was like, that just seems hard.

302
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: So I didn't.

303
00:14:25,519 --> 00:14:28,879
Speaker 2: But I'm surprised that there's places there that have live

304
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,919
music and don't enter into outdoor.

305
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,799
Speaker 4: They're indoor outdoor at least this place. They didn't seem

306
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,360
like they gave a fuck, like they I was watching them, like, okay,

307
00:14:38,399 --> 00:14:40,679
so now the place is getting packed. People for the

308
00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:44,000
most part had masks on, and then I've start to

309
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,360
look around. Then you start seeing the masks come off.

310
00:14:46,759 --> 00:14:48,879
Then you start seeing people getting up and walking over

311
00:14:48,879 --> 00:14:49,279
to the bar.

312
00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: Now there's people at the bar and they're talking and

313
00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:54,480
screaming at each other and they have their masks off.

314
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,639
Oh no, you know what I mean, Like this is

315
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,279
not good. I don't even trust the drink. You know,

316
00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:03,840
I don't want to get anything to drink because I

317
00:15:03,879 --> 00:15:06,320
don't want people spitting into my drink, you know what

318
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:06,679
I mean.

319
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to go.

320
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 4: The waitress is nowhere to be found, and she's got

321
00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:14,080
her mask on, but still like I don't I don't

322
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,279
want her to walk it from So I had like

323
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,360
one beer because it was in a bottle, and then

324
00:15:21,399 --> 00:15:23,399
like somebody else got a bunch of beers for us

325
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,159
and took the chance and went to the bar.

326
00:15:25,879 --> 00:15:28,559
Speaker 2: And then that was it. Like we had two beers.

327
00:15:28,679 --> 00:15:32,519
I would not have hugged them goodbye, m M. But

328
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,919
I did, thank you for your honesty.

329
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: I did.

330
00:15:37,799 --> 00:15:40,679
Speaker 4: But you know, for the most part, we were outside,

331
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,320
and we stayed outside. And I don't say that for

332
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,080
the most part, I didn't even go inside to pee.

333
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,320
I didn't go out. I didn't I didn't go in.

334
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,399
I stayed outside. But don stayed outside the guys would

335
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,000
go and get the beers and stuff like that, but

336
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,600
I didn't, and Don had to really pee and she

337
00:15:57,879 --> 00:16:01,879
like basically held her breath and went in. But you know,

338
00:16:02,039 --> 00:16:05,000
and then I had to spray the anti bacterial spray

339
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,519
of spraying everybody down, So you know, I believe that

340
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:10,600
I was pretty careful.

341
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:11,639
Speaker 2: You know.

342
00:16:11,759 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: The next morning I thought about it, and I was

343
00:16:13,759 --> 00:16:15,799
I felt like I wouldn't.

344
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 4: Say I felt safe, but I felt like I was good.

345
00:16:19,919 --> 00:16:22,519
And then like at the end of the night, Mike,

346
00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:26,120
who's an insane driver and drives like a maniac, tells

347
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,480
us that he's driving for Lyft back home where he lives.

348
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:34,720
He drove out from Arizona. Mike's not exactly the go getter, right,

349
00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:36,360
He's a no getter. He's a brick layer.

350
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,519
Speaker 1: He's a brick a layer. Now I don't even know

351
00:16:38,559 --> 00:16:39,039
what he does.

352
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 4: I mean, he's I don't know, but he's he's driving

353
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,559
for Uber and Lyft.

354
00:16:43,799 --> 00:16:46,279
Speaker 1: And he was like, I'll take you guys home, and.

355
00:16:47,919 --> 00:16:49,759
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, You're going to wear your mask

356
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,159
the whole time, right, He's like, of course, I said okay,

357
00:16:53,799 --> 00:16:55,000
And I said, but I'm serious.

358
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,519
Speaker 1: I wouldn't like, you know, Mike, I go, Mike, I.

359
00:16:57,519 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 2: You know, like Donn and I were just like, let's

360
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,159
all three wear our masks, okay, And he's like, yeah,

361
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,119
it's fine. So he fucking drove us like he was

362
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,480
fucking with us the whole time he was driving. He

363
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:14,240
was driving through the canyons like scaring us, and like,

364
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,119
I mean, Mike, that's what I'm like, Mike and Glenn always.

365
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: Driving through a canyon.

366
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 2: So to get that straight shot down the.

367
00:17:24,759 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: No we were in we were more like inland. You know.

368
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,839
Speaker 4: We had to get off the freeway and drive I

369
00:17:31,839 --> 00:17:36,759
don't know, north oh or whatever away from the ocean

370
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,640
with the back to the north. Yeah okay, so uh yeah,

371
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,720
So we were about twenty minutes off the freeway, so he

372
00:17:42,759 --> 00:17:43,799
had to get on the freeway.

373
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 2: Then he had to take the canyon, had to take

374
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,160
like Malibu Canyon home.

375
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,839
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but we've driven that canyon together a million

376
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,039
ka billion.

377
00:17:52,759 --> 00:17:55,599
Speaker 2: Times and he'd had some drinks. No, he doesn't drink.

378
00:17:55,599 --> 00:17:56,440
He's clean and sober.

379
00:17:56,519 --> 00:17:57,759
Speaker 1: Oh what a me?

380
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know I should of gone, I know, you

381
00:18:02,079 --> 00:18:06,319
and Mike get out and oh Kaylin Kayla party pooper.

382
00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: I like that because it's a good idea.

383
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 2: I'm already starting my holidays shopping, yeah, are you Yeah?

384
00:18:13,599 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: I like to get on it early.

385
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 2: That's smart. Every year I say I'm going to do that,

386
00:18:18,559 --> 00:18:20,400
you know, well every year I I do.

387
00:18:20,519 --> 00:18:21,599
Speaker 1: I do start early.

388
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 2: But then as it gets to be, like, you know,

389
00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:24,920
a week before, I'm like.

390
00:18:25,279 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: I do anything, sayd the enough? I got lb too

391
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:29,680
many things? And I hate that.

392
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you have three kids, it's so hard

393
00:18:32,839 --> 00:18:37,160
because they do they are aware, they can't help themselves.

394
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 1: They're aware of who got what, and you know, you know,

395
00:18:41,039 --> 00:18:42,519
I always this.

396
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,279
Speaker 2: So this was a pain in the butt. I told

397
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,000
you that Elb So Elby just had her birthday.

398
00:18:47,039 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to know.

399
00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:52,839
Speaker 2: How was the birthdays? Okay, it was really great. So

400
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,680
I had planned. So I feel like last week I

401
00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:02,160
told you that Elbie's friends mom had COVID, so we

402
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,000
were having our little COVID scare. So I took so

403
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,759
everybody in our little friend group. So she hadn't seen

404
00:19:09,799 --> 00:19:13,480
this friend for a week, so it was pretty sure

405
00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:16,640
that the girl got the girl's mom got COVID during

406
00:19:16,839 --> 00:19:20,119
that school week. Not that she's in school, but you

407
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,079
know what I'm saying, And Elbie hadn't seen her that

408
00:19:22,079 --> 00:19:24,480
whole week. She'd seen her the weekend before, so we

409
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,880
were pretty sure our kids were fine and hadn't been

410
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,440
exposed to it. But obviously, just in case, with Elbie's

411
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,279
birthday coming up, we all got tested.

412
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: Everybody was negative.

413
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 2: Did the cheek swab again this time really no weight.

414
00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:43,319
Speaker 1: It was really easy. Yeah, I just signed up online.

415
00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:45,640
And I know some people are going to be like, oh,

416
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,000
the cheek swabs not as not as what do you

417
00:19:49,039 --> 00:19:52,319
call it? Reliable? Really? But here's the thing, this is

418
00:19:52,319 --> 00:19:53,240
how you have to think of it.

419
00:19:53,599 --> 00:19:57,880
Speaker 2: Everybody in Elbe's little circle and their parents and siblings

420
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,799
got tested, and we all tested NEGA, So it would

421
00:20:01,839 --> 00:20:05,559
have to be unreliable in such a way that everybody tested.

422
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: Negative, right right exactly, So.

423
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 2: I mean I could understand if one person in the

424
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,880
group tested positive, then we might all be like, Okay,

425
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:16,039
well maybe our results aren't sure. But everyone tested negative,

426
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,799
so we knew that her mom got exposed after the

427
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,839
kids had seen her. And then the girl Elbie's friend

428
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,119
ended up testing positive. She did and was sick. She

429
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,200
was not that sick, basically said it was like a cold,

430
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,039
like a bad cold, but you know, fifteen years old. Yeah,

431
00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:38,400
and did have symptoms lat so it made me hyper

432
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:44,079
aware of So I had planned for LB a dinner

433
00:20:44,279 --> 00:20:49,079
at an outdoor place and with it was going to

434
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:55,200
be seven kids total. Okay, So anyway we did that.

435
00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:00,200
I went with my friend, one of the Elbe's friends,

436
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,000
the mom that I always hang out with, and so

437
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:08,119
we It's so funny because you know, even though Elbie's

438
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,680
turned sixteen, I mean there's still like there's still a

439
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:11,400
little girl.

440
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,799
Speaker 1: Girl in a lot of ways, you know. And my

441
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,279
friend was saying, this is funny. I hope she doesn't

442
00:21:18,279 --> 00:21:20,200
listen to this. Well, it doesn't really matter. I'm not

443
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,279
nothing bad, but this is just like.

444
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 2: You know mo chat, right, would you guys like to

445
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:27,359
hear the mom chat anyway, So it's just a difference

446
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:34,480
of like everybody thinks that they're like Okay, I was

447
00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:38,160
saying that we I had the reservation for seven and

448
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,319
then I had forgotten that I wanted to be at

449
00:21:40,319 --> 00:21:42,599
the restaurant because we were gonna do cake. I didn't

450
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,039
want to just drop them off and like what give

451
00:21:46,039 --> 00:21:49,240
her my credit card? I mean I could have, look,

452
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,400
I could have I could have just let them go

453
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,319
and given them my credit card and then just come

454
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:55,680
and picked them up afterwards.

455
00:21:56,079 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: But Albie, I know my daughter, and I knew that

456
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,599
that would make her little anxious. I knew that she

457
00:22:01,799 --> 00:22:05,599
likes to know that there's somebody yes like that too.

458
00:22:06,079 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 2: I knew that she would not want me sitting at

459
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,559
her table like she's not five, but at the same

460
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:14,200
time like wanting to know that I'm in the vicinity

461
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:14,799
so that.

462
00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:19,079
Speaker 1: She could text me, which spoiler alert she did for

463
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:20,079
no big deal.

464
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 2: But you know, they want to know that you're around.

465
00:22:23,279 --> 00:22:28,640
Absolutely so. But her friend, her friend, it's my friend,

466
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:33,160

00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,960
but I was like, it's just double check because it

496
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,400
doesn't make sense. Yeah, right, yeah, that you can't put it,

497
00:23:54,519 --> 00:23:57,200
especially when you're all right, hold on. She comes back,

498
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,279
I'm sorry, dear, Yeah, we won't be able to do that.

499
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,839
I said, well, what do you think is going to

500
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,160
be like the wait? Oh, I have no way of knowing.

501
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,359
But when you come, you see if there's a table available.

502
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: So I call my friend.

503
00:24:11,319 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 2: Oh, and she says, but the table that your kid's

504
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,279
gonna be at is a long table, so you and

505
00:24:16,319 --> 00:24:18,079
your friend could probably sit at the end of the

506
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,079
table and it won't even like interfere with.

507
00:24:20,079 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 1: The So I called Eslie.

508
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, so, you know, me, being a no getter,

509
00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:29,039
I had forgotten to try to make a reservation, but

510
00:24:29,079 --> 00:24:30,960
it wouldn't have mattered anyway, because they don't.

511
00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:32,599
Speaker 1: Take reservations for two right.

512
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:37,759
Speaker 2: So I said, they said we could possibly sit at

513
00:24:37,759 --> 00:24:40,960
the end of where the kids and she's like, no,

514
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,160
absolutely not, like these kids they're too old, like they're

515
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,400
not gonna want to sitting at the table. So I

516
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,880
was like, yeah, I agree, I agree, But I'm just saying,

517
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,880
like we should just go there, suss it out, and

518
00:24:54,519 --> 00:24:57,599
if if it seems like we can do that, then

519
00:24:57,599 --> 00:25:00,440
we can. Otherwise she's like, no, no, no, we should

520
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,680
go to another restaurant, like in the neighborhood. I was like, okay,

521
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,880
but it is a Friday night, like it might be hard.

522
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,119
I go, we'll just play it by ear, we'll see

523
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,839
what happens. Right. So we get there, we tell them

524
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,440
the situation and they're like, oh, oh, there's an hour

525
00:25:14,519 --> 00:25:19,279
wait of course for tables okay. Then, so my friend

526
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,039
is just adamant about we can't sit with these kids.

527
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:24,759
They're so independent. She was like, my daughter would kill me,

528
00:25:25,079 --> 00:25:27,440
which I kind of understand. But here's the thing that

529
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,720
I said to my friend. I was like, they're not

530
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:35,720
that independent because first of all, her daughter call like

531
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,319
we'll go do something, and her daughter will be blowing

532
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,279
up her phone the whole time, which.

533
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: I pointed out to her.

534
00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 2: I was like, you think these kids are so independent

535
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,279
because they say that. I was like, but Ava, Ava's

536
00:25:46,279 --> 00:25:48,400
her daughter. I go, Ava calls you all the time,

537
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,519
like we'll sit down and your phone is ringing and

538
00:25:51,559 --> 00:25:54,119
it's Ava with like a question or whatever. I was like,

539
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,279
so it's not like that unusual that I want to

540
00:25:56,319 --> 00:25:57,680
be in the restaurant, right.

541
00:25:58,039 --> 00:25:59,599
Speaker 1: She was trying to get me to leave the.

542
00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:02,559
Speaker 2: Restaurant really somewhere else, and I was and then she's like,

543
00:26:02,599 --> 00:26:05,039
I haven't seen you. You seem like nervous about this,

544
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,279
and I was like, no, I'm not nervous, but I'm like,

545
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,200
I don't want to leave. I want to eat in

546
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,559
the restaurant. I understand that totally. Like it's her birthday.

547
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,000
I want to make sure I don't want to go

548
00:26:15,079 --> 00:26:18,000
somewhere else. Be in the middle of eating something and

549
00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:20,519
be getting text from Lbie going are you coming or

550
00:26:20,519 --> 00:26:22,960
we're going to We're ready for cake or whatever, which,

551
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:28,160
sure enough is kind of what happened because she had okay,

552
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,400
so so she starts texting me. Towards the end, they

553
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,720
were they ate their food. It was great, It was

554
00:26:34,759 --> 00:26:38,480
really fun. They had fun. They ordered whatever they wanted,

555
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,440
which was kind of cute to like not pre order food.

556
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,119
I was like, just be reasonable, don't start ordering a

557
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:48,720
bunch of sushi. Yes, in this place, it was called HQ.

558
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,440
It was a gastropub. Oh have you ever been there? Oh?

559
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,160
Speaker 1: I have a friend that goes there all the time.

560
00:26:54,319 --> 00:26:57,119
Oh yeah, yeah yeah. It's a really cute place. I

561
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:01,039
know that area. Wow, yeah, okay, really cute.

562
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 2: It's a little bit like it's reminiscent of like the

563
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,079
hard Rock Cafe. There's like guitars on the wall, and

564
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,720
it's got a fun, like kind of trendy atmosphere, even.

565
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:12,559
Speaker 1: Though it's in Woodland Hills, California.

566
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, and it was all outdoor seating

567
00:27:15,599 --> 00:27:17,720
and they're sitting at this little like a wooden bench

568
00:27:17,799 --> 00:27:20,720
and it was like they're playing music and it was fun.

569
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,559
But then I get a text from Alb. She's like,

570
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,880
are we are we leaving soon? And I said, oh, well,

571
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,960
are you guys wrapping up? She goes, yeah, we're done eating,

572
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,960
and I'm like, okay, well they eat.

573
00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:34,519
Speaker 4: Fast, you know, you know what I mean, Like kids

574
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,839
usually are like Sonny and Italia, they're.

575
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,039
Speaker 1: Done, like they're ready for dessert.

576
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,279
Speaker 4: They eat like five six bites and then they're yeah,

577
00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:42,039
kids these days.

578
00:27:42,079 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

579
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 2: But then Alb starts saying, Mom, I'm just this person

580
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,559
wants to know like what time their dad should come

581
00:27:48,599 --> 00:27:51,359
get them. And this person wants to know like and

582
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,640
I said, well, well we're going to do cake and

583
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,000
then she's like she keeps sending me.

584
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 1: Text back and forth.

585
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: So finally I just go over to her table and

586
00:27:59,759 --> 00:28:02,079
I did you guys go you so we were there?

587
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,640
Oh so they ended up finding a table for us. Okay,

588
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,319
they sat them and then they're like, you know what,

589
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,599
we found you a table, which but it wasn't that

590
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:13,160
busy deer. You're not busy deer. There's nobody really, there's

591
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,319
not every table is filled up, deer. Somehow, it wasn't

592
00:28:17,759 --> 00:28:21,039
a Deeri wasn't there, but somebody else was just like,

593
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,200
oh yeah right, oh we found you a spot.

594
00:28:24,279 --> 00:28:26,880
Speaker 1: We were like, okay, great, so we ate our food,

595
00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:28,079
they ate their food.

596
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 2: But I started getting texts like you know, So then

597
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,640
I go over and then Albie says. I was like, well,

598
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:39,559

00:28:39,559 --> 00:28:44,079
like what, I don't Can we just go home? Take

600
00:28:44,119 --> 00:28:49,880
Can we take the girls minus one back to our house?

601
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:50,359
Speaker 1: You wanted to?

602
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,839
Speaker 2: And I said why? And she's like, Mom, you know

603
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,480
I have social anxiety. I don't want people singing me

604
00:28:56,519 --> 00:28:57,839
Happy Birthday at the table.

605
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: I don't like it. I don't want like that focus.

606
00:29:02,279 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 2: Really And you know what though, see here's the thing,

607
00:29:05,039 --> 00:29:08,680
like I know my kid, my other friend, and I

608
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,920
think I was telling you this on the podcast last week.

609
00:29:11,079 --> 00:29:14,119
My friend who sets who set the bar really high

610
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:14,799

00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,039
Speaker 1: All that sushi for lunch. Yes.

614
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 2: That mom was like telling me about how she bought

615
00:29:24,759 --> 00:29:27,160
all this stuff at party City and she decorated the

616
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,640
restaurant where her daughter was having her thing member And

617
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,599
I was like, ID not if I'm going to party City.

618
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,319
Speaker 1: Well guess who went to party city.

619
00:29:33,519 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 2: I was.

620
00:29:35,359 --> 00:29:36,279
Speaker 1: But then when I was.

621
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 2: In party City going Lara, I'm gonna kill you, I

622
00:29:40,799 --> 00:29:44,319
was like, Okay, I'm not gonna go crazy because Elbie

623
00:29:44,359 --> 00:29:47,319
won't like that. She will not like that. She doesn't

624
00:29:47,359 --> 00:29:51,319
want people walking by their table going oh, somebody's turning sixteen.

625
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:52,839
Speaker 1: She would hate that.

626
00:29:53,079 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 2: So I found one little thing that sits on the

627
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,400
table and has got like little like sparkly things.

628
00:29:59,119 --> 00:30:00,599
Speaker 1: Coming off of it. You know what I'm saying.

629
00:30:00,759 --> 00:30:03,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like five bucks, and it like sits

630
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,240
on a little weighted thing and then it has a

631
00:30:05,519 --> 00:30:05,799
and you.

632
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: Could put a little birthday sign on top. Uh huh.

633
00:30:08,039 --> 00:30:09,440
So I put on there.

634
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:14,119
Speaker 2: This card that says hundred percent that birthday bitch with

635
00:30:14,119 --> 00:30:15,000
a picture of Lizzo.

636
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:16,319
Speaker 1: So I put that in there.

637
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 2: So I put that on their table, and then I

638
00:30:18,599 --> 00:30:21,960
had plates that just said sixteen on them for the

639
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:22,640
actual cake.

640
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: Cute. But I did not put any banner up right

641
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,160
right right, she would have died.

642
00:30:28,799 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 2: So and sure enough she was like, I don't want

643
00:30:31,039 --> 00:30:33,279
to do cake here, I want to do it at home.

644
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,319
Speaker 1: So was the plan for all the girls to go

645
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:37,559
back to your house?

646
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:37,799
Speaker 3: No?

647
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:38,759
Speaker 1: That was not the plan.

648
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 2: The plan was to have cake at the restaurant and

649
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,759
then sea sayonara, right, and I was going to drop

650
00:30:45,799 --> 00:30:46,799
them off at home.

651
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 4: Okay, And so she knew that there was going to

652
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,000
be cake, right, Yeah.

653
00:30:51,839 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: Of course.

654
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,319
Speaker 2: But then once she got there and she's there, she decided,

655
00:30:55,359 --> 00:30:56,119
she was like, I.

656
00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: Don't want to do that. I'd rather do it at home. Yeah.

657
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,640

755
00:36:24,199 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 1: So?

756
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,199
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is around the country, but

757
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,360
I think I told there's a place. It's called Curative s.

758
00:36:29,559 --> 00:36:32,480
You are ati VE. I just googled it. And then

759
00:36:32,519 --> 00:36:35,639
they do free testing and they have all these drive

760
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,159
through I don't know if they're all drive through, but

761
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,880
that's the company that's doing them, and uh, and yeah

762
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,960
it's free. Just do you give them your insurance information anyway,

763
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,679
but they don't charge your insurance company, okay, or I

764
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,239
don't know, maybe they I don't know. But so you

765
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,199
can find and then you find the place closest to

766
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,000
you that it's doing it, and then you just you

767
00:36:55,119 --> 00:36:55,960
just make an appointment.

768
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: And they have tons of appointments.

769
00:36:57,599 --> 00:36:59,840

00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,239
go okay, I want to one in like an hour, wow,

771
00:37:03,599 --> 00:37:05,239
and then you just get in line in your car

772
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,199
and then you get the little kit and then you

773
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:11,119
or you could go to any like an urgent care

774
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,760
and it's covered by your insurance, and then you can

775
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:14,880

00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 2: You're like, I know everything, like we will when people

779
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:26,880
go just call your doctor.

780
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: That never works for me. That never works. I don't

781
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:34,119
know why. Especially our doctors, especially our doctor is busy.

782
00:37:34,599 --> 00:37:37,639
It's busy, bussy guy being abused.

783
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:45,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a Patreon reference. Yeah, so here's something that's

784
00:37:45,159 --> 00:37:48,960
going on with me. I can't stop eating, Oh god,

785
00:37:49,159 --> 00:37:51,400
I can't. I thought I would eventually get used to

786
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:54,760
the COVID thing and I would stop like eating constantly,

787
00:37:55,039 --> 00:37:57,519
but no, it's still going on.

788
00:37:58,119 --> 00:38:01,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm still not exercise, so we're both in great shape.

789
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: I was looking at my keychain the other day and

790
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:08,639
I'm like, what is this, oh, Ellie Fitness. Yeah, it's

Speaker 1: Right, And I was like, do I still pay for this? Right?

794
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:20,719
I wonder if the US That's a good question that's

795
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:21,519
happened to me before.

796
00:38:21,559 --> 00:38:24,639
Speaker 2: I was like, what, I'm still a member somewhere of

Speaker 1: What.

799
00:38:27,119 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 2: I can't imagine going back either, Like, I feel like

800
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,239
people have gotten used to getting their exercise another way.

801
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,679
It just seems unseemly to go exercise next to somebody.

802
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: Yeah it does.

803
00:38:37,639 --> 00:38:40,360

00:39:17,679 --> 00:39:20,920
get the email. And the woman comes and she goes, honey,

824
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,480
I don't need to hear what your whole day is

825
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,440
all about. I was like, oh my god, I'm so

826
00:39:25,599 --> 00:39:28,320
fucking sorry because I hate when people do that, and

827
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,079
I'm the jackass that was doing it.

828
00:39:30,639 --> 00:39:31,159
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do.

829
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't miss the gym at all. And

830
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,840
I've been going since I was a kid.

831
00:39:36,079 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been going for years. Yeah I don't. I

832
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,719
can't picture myself there anymore. No walking in and like

833
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:45,840
finding parking.

834
00:39:46,119 --> 00:39:49,159
Speaker 1: I know. But the alternative is I just don't exercitt.

835
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,559
Speaker 2: Right, It's not like I found a better way exactly, Like,

836
00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:53,719
how else am I going to get there?

837
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,199
Speaker 1: Because my routine was to.

838
00:39:55,199 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 4: Drop the kids off at school and then get in

839
00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,880
the car and go straight to the gym. Don't go

840
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:02,599
at home, don't go straight to the gym. Otherwise I'd

841
00:40:02,599 --> 00:40:03,239
never work out.

842
00:40:03,599 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 2: So now how am I supposed to work out? When

843
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,159
I'm not taking the kids to school. What am I

844
00:40:08,159 --> 00:40:08,719
supposed to do?

845
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 3: Now?

846
00:40:09,039 --> 00:40:11,199
Speaker 1: I know, make time to do it? Fuck that.

847
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,639
Speaker 2: I feel really guilty about the fact that my life

848
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,199
in some ways is so.

849
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,559
Speaker 1: Much better with no school. I know, and I know

850
00:40:21,599 --> 00:40:23,320
we talked about lot of boy.

851
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 2: Getting comfty, being home and being in their own routine. Yeah,

852
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:32,079
And the thing is, every morning I would hit the

853
00:40:32,119 --> 00:40:34,559
ground running. It was just like I felt every morning,

854
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,239
eyes open up and you're like, okay, and you know

855
00:40:37,519 --> 00:40:41,320
I've I'm you know, even though our listeners yell at us,

856
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,360
you know, I'd still be making lunches.

857
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: Right, you know I would totally.

858
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 2: Because why why do I do this stuff? Because my

859
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,000
kids are too lazy to do it? And then I'm

860
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,760
too lazy to make to yell at them for me

861
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,320
too lazy, right, too lazy to yell at them for

862
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:56,000
being lazy.

863
00:40:56,119 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: That's true, it is.

864
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,119
Speaker 2: And then John gets upset with me. He doesn't it

865
00:41:00,679 --> 00:41:03,519
upset upset, but he gets like, don't do their chores

866
00:41:03,519 --> 00:41:06,360
for them, and I'm like, but they're not gonna do it, right,

867
00:41:06,599 --> 00:41:09,360
they are not gonna do it. I does, I'd nag

868
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,599
and nag and nag. They're not gonna be proactive, right,

869
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,000
And then John's answer to that is, well, okay, then

870
00:41:17,039 --> 00:41:19,119
they should just take the trash out every day.

871
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,039
Speaker 1: But I'm like, but it's not full every day.

872
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 2: What I would like is for them to when they

873
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,079
go to throw something in the recycle, which is next

874
00:41:27,079 --> 00:41:29,440
to the regular trash, instead.

875
00:41:29,039 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: Of going like, oh, that's full, so I'll just put

876
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:31,880
it on top.

877
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: Uh huh, and then they start building a freaking trash

878
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:38,599
tower instead of doing that when it when your next

879
00:41:38,679 --> 00:41:42,599
move is to go on top of the re on top,

880
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,239
that should be a communication between the recycle and you

881
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,719
it's time to take it out.

882
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:48,079
Speaker 1: Yes.

883
00:41:49,639 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 2: How does that not ever going to strike you as

884
00:41:52,559 --> 00:41:55,800
like annoying for me that you're started to build on

885
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,719
top Because then I go and I'm like, okay, so

886
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,159
I guess I'm taking out the trash right, because guess

887
00:42:01,199 --> 00:42:05,079
what they do. They sneak and do that like at night,

888
00:42:05,639 --> 00:42:07,960
and then oh, they're in school in the morning doing

889
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,280
their school. Can't do it. Can't do it, absolutely, I know.

890
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:12,840
And John goes, why don't you wait for them to

891
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,599
do it? And I'm like, because in the meantime, I

892
00:42:15,679 --> 00:42:19,840
still have to use the trash, right, I have that.

893
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 4: How about that, like you know that whole thing too,

894
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,039
where I put them in charge of Like I'll tell Natalia,

895
00:42:26,119 --> 00:42:30,320
you are in charge of the vacuuming fill's hairs everywhere.

896
00:42:30,559 --> 00:42:31,039
Speaker 1: Okay.

897
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,119
Speaker 4: So and then so whenever she wants something, so okay,

898
00:42:34,119 --> 00:42:36,440
so her friend wants to come over, Okay, but did

899
00:42:36,519 --> 00:42:37,239
you do your chores?

900
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:39,679
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I'm gonna do them. And what do you mean

901
00:42:39,679 --> 00:42:40,639
you're gonna do them?

902
00:42:41,079 --> 00:42:44,079
Speaker 4: What do you mean gonna No, get the vacuum out

903
00:42:44,079 --> 00:42:48,639
before they come. You need to vacuum, right, yeah, right.

904
00:42:48,519 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: They just they don't. They just don't.

905
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,039
Speaker 4: And so now I got to sit there and go

906
00:42:53,159 --> 00:42:56,400
up and downstairs with a you know, it's like you

907
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,800
sit stepping into a cloud of hair just flying everywhere constantly,

908
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:01,639
and I can't take it.

909
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,639
Speaker 1: I can't take it. I have to vacuum. Yeah, that's

910
00:43:04,679 --> 00:43:05,440
the I do too.

911
00:43:05,639 --> 00:43:08,039
Speaker 4: Or how about when how about when I get in

912
00:43:08,559 --> 00:43:11,440
trouble with Adam and Brittany and they're like, just let

913
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,840
them make their own lunches, let them let when they're hungry,

914
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:15,360
they'll eat.

915
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 1: Then you don't have to order them stuff. They'll eat.

916
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 2: Well, they don't though, right, And then what happens is

917
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,159
they get angry and then they get irritated and anything,

918
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,400
you know, anything I say is going to you know,

919
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:28,159
set them off.

920
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: So I have no like, I just I just want

921
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,119
them to get it over. Just eat, you know what

922
00:43:33,159 --> 00:43:36,119
I mean? Like, okay, so I'll make yourself something to eat.

923
00:43:36,119 --> 00:43:36,719
What do you want?

924
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 4: So I'll make it while they're in their class, so

925
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,480
it's ready when they come out. But it's like I

926
00:43:41,519 --> 00:43:44,360
should be like, what are you guys eating tomorrow during school?

927
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,159
Speaker 1: What are you going to eat? I try every night

928
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,559
to tell them that every night, and.

929
00:43:48,519 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 2: They're always like, yeah, that sounds good, and then the

930
00:43:50,519 --> 00:43:51,119
day comes and.

931
00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:53,199
Speaker 4: They're like, I'm not interested. I don't want that. I

932
00:43:53,199 --> 00:43:56,800
don't want something else. Too bad, you know, but well

933
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,000
it's yeah, too bad?

934
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,559
Speaker 1: Is in a fan world?

935
00:44:00,639 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 4: Right?

936
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 1: Too bad? All these people? I know we've talked about

937
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,320
this a million times too. But the whole thing I

938
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,639
refused to be a short order cook, right, Well, then

939
00:44:07,679 --> 00:44:10,679
your kids are not eat. If I was a kid

940
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:11,199
who had a.

941
00:44:11,159 --> 00:44:13,440
Speaker 2: Parent who was like, I'm not a short order cook, right,

942
00:44:13,519 --> 00:44:16,400
and so I didn't eat like I I mean I

943
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,719
didn't I certainly didn't starve, you know, but I'm just

944
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,719
saying it kind of sucked because I didn't I would

945
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,519
have to make go make myself like a hot dog.

946
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 3: I know.

947
00:44:26,159 --> 00:44:28,559
Speaker 4: Ever, see, I think about that when I was a kid,

948
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,639
like I was always hungry, but there was never anything

949
00:44:31,679 --> 00:44:34,480
to eat, you know, right, and no one no one

950
00:44:34,559 --> 00:44:37,159
was cooking me shit, you know, or making me stuff.

951
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,840
My mom she was a horrible cook, by the way,

952
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,760
but she wouldn't you know, she wasn't making my lunches

953
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:43,119
and shit.

954
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: I had to figure that out.

955
00:44:45,559 --> 00:44:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but my mom would make my lunches and they

956
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,960
were horrible tune of like stuff I didn't like.

957
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:53,119
Speaker 1: She like.

958
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,800
Speaker 2: She didn't even remember if I would tell her I

959
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,320
don't like I remember one of her favorite things to

960
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,840
make me and I I'm sure it was because I didn't.

961
00:45:01,599 --> 00:45:04,519
Speaker 1: Like it cream cheese and jelly.

962
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:08,039
Speaker 2: Sandwiches, and I thought that was so disgusting, and I told.

963
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 1: Her I don't like it. Like it was to the point.

964
00:45:10,079 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 2: I was kind of a picky eater as a kid,

965
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,599
so I did not like a lot of stuff. I

966
00:45:15,639 --> 00:45:18,199
had a limited palette. I was a lot like Elbie

967
00:45:18,199 --> 00:45:20,400
when she was younger. And because I remember this was

968
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,280
like we're talking. I remember this was like second grade. Yeah,

969
00:45:24,639 --> 00:45:27,599
I remember very well that almost every day my mom

970
00:45:27,679 --> 00:45:30,760
packed me something disgusting for lunch, never taking into account

971
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,440
if I told her I'm not I'm not going to

972
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,880
eat it, right, so she would just pack it anyway.

973
00:45:36,119 --> 00:45:38,559
It's like, well, okay, But then I was starving because

974
00:45:38,559 --> 00:45:39,320
I had nothing to eat.

975
00:45:41,079 --> 00:45:43,199
Speaker 1: Same with me. So I think I carry.

976
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 2: That memory around and I want them to have food

977
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:46,559
they like they're not.

978
00:45:46,679 --> 00:45:50,559
Speaker 1: Hungry, especially since these days the academics.

979
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,639
Speaker 2: Are so much more rigorous, like you know, know, I know,

980
00:45:53,199 --> 00:45:57,360
and also like Natalia as Sunny, they're both burning calories constantly,

981
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,880
you know, And I just feel like especially and then

982
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:03,320
I got to look out for her because every day

983
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:03,880
she's got.

984
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,519
Speaker 4: Volleyball and so she's got to eat. Because there was

985
00:46:06,559 --> 00:46:08,440
one time I took her, like a week or two ago,

986
00:46:08,599 --> 00:46:11,880

987
00:46:12,199 --> 00:46:15,119
her faces she's sweating, her face is bright red. She

988
00:46:15,159 --> 00:46:17,320
gets in the car and the first thing she announces

989
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,679
that she's starving. I said, well, what about when I

00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,519

991
00:46:22,599 --> 00:46:26,159
drive few, we're gonna go home. You're gonna eat at home.

992
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:31,199
Speaker 2: But sometimes at home there's nothing, so you know, it's

993
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:32,280

994
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:37,119
Speaker 1: I know. Okay, thanks everybody, Thank KLN. You're a parent, now,

995
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:37,960
