Speaker 1: I made a de song, Oh face sunny sound. I
had a vision. Why it's nice. What's up everybody? Hi,
Hi Stephanie. How are you? I'm good? Thank you? How
are you? I'm good? Happy Friday? You too? Thank you?
So's uh, what's happened?
Speaker 2: Well? On Monday when we were recording for our Tuesday episode,
you were going to tell me a story.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well okay, you were sort of like, should this
be Patreon?
Speaker 2: And I was like, listen, bitch, I told basically something
that should have been Patreon and spent the whole episode
talking about it.
Speaker 1: So you can write, okay, okay, air your dirty laundry. Well,
everybody keep it. That does eat? Okay, don't turn me
in or say anything because I think the mom's like
active on Facebook now listen. I don't get me wrong.
I love this mom and I've known her since kindergarten
because it's Jensen's mom, and I love the family. I
love her husband. I know you do. Yeah, great people,
and she's she's been like a very good friend of
mine for a long time. But I don't know. No,
I don't like to get involved in the little dramas
that happen, and I'm grateful that she has a son
and not a daughter. Otherwise I'd be getting dinged constantly. Right,
The drama with the girls are a lot different. But
you know, like the one time I went up to
they do the school parent at the student parent lunch
and when you bring it right, I walked on to
the campus, I got like one foot onto the campus
and got like attacked by her and another mom going, hey,
did you hear about the drama with the boys. Do
you hear what's going on? Like Sonny said shut up
or get out of here or something, or or said
you were on the bank. You're joining the jump on
the bandwagoners on the basketball courts, and I was like,
uh what. And also it's like have you met Sonny. Yeah,
I'm gonna immediately assume I know. And that's what she said.
And she's like, that's furious motives right to like somebody's kid, right,
And that's what I said. I go, well, God, that
doesn't sound like Sonny, but probably. I mean, look, they're
getting older, they're on the basketball courts every day, they're competitive,
and they're with each other every day. They're gonna have
some drama. It's gonna happen. And she's just like, well,
I just don't want, you know, everybody's feelings to get hurt.
And it really wasn't nothing. It was a no nothing,
and I just was like okay, and then I had
to go find like Natalia's friends, a moms or whatever, right,
but okay, and then that was that. Then then the
other day, I was during the week and I don't know, yeah,
it was during the week, and I was having a
nice evening with at him and the kids and we
were laughing or whatever, and then I got a long text.
And usually that's when I put my phone away and
I don't check it, and then I come back and
then I look at it and then there's a bunch
of texts.
Speaker 2: That's when I'm that's always when I'm like, look that
I had something that I really need to tell you.
And then it's like eighteen texts later and you're like, oh, yees,
four days later you're like, oh, shoot, no, I'm just
looking at this.
Speaker 1: I know. I yeah. But so I get the one
from the mom and it's long, and it's like, hey,
you know, because okay, so here's the setup. So for
some reason, during like one week two weeks ago, it
was it was a coincidence, like Sonny had something going
after school with his dad. I can't remember. I think
he was going to work with dad or he's doing
something I can't remember. Uh. Anyway, so uh, Jensen wanted
to play dight after school he couldn't. Then there was
another day where Sonny was like exhausted and came home
and which is unlike Sonny usually is full of energy,
and he was exhausted and he came home and he
was all in the same week that it was the
same day he was like, Jensen was calling and calling
and calling and calling, and and then I get the
text from the text goes to me and to Olga,
like from the mom like, hey, Jens wants to know
Sonny's around. And I said to Olga, Sonny, do you
want to play with Gens? And he's like, I'm so exhausted, Mom,
I'm totaled. I'm too tired. So I like text back
like sorry.
Speaker 2: You know, by the way, he's so only a couple
of months out of his head injury, that's true.
Speaker 1: I don't even think about that.
Speaker 2: Sometimes he's going to be tired and he should know
his own body. Sorry to like jump right, in and pretend. Yeah,
but he should know his limits and when he needs rest,
he should take it. Yeah, I forgot about that. I
actually forgot about his head injury. So yeah, and then
I said and I said, Sonny. Oh, and then I
had to take Sonny to a practice that night, so
I took him to practice.
Speaker 1: I said, did you did? Because then he rested up
for his practice is like six thirty to seven thirty,
so by then he had energy. And I said, did
you call back Jensen yet? No, I'll talk to him tomorrow.
I go. But he's like, Adam, it's fine, he's fine,
I'll talk to him tomorrow. I go. But Jensen is
like Natalia. They are a lot alike. And Jensen's sensitive
and he's a go getter and Italian's a go getter
and they're like, you know, and Sonny's a no getter
and it's like, you know, he's like me, like soe
Xander right see total yeah, like it's someone's.
Speaker 2: Bought bugging him to make plans, right, yeah, it's like
and Sadie's more of the go because she's always like,
who are we playing with?
Speaker 1: What? Can you call this person? Can you call that person?
Can I have a sleepover? Can they sleep over here?
Speaker 2: Can they?
Speaker 1: That's what I get from Italians. In between. Elvi's kind
of mellow. Yeah, she's a little more of a no getter.
Sometimes she's got it in her and sometimes she does. Yeah,
that's good, that's good. It's a good balance. Yeah. So
you know, and and he's sensitive and I know that,
and I said, well, you should probably text him. He's
been calling you and calling you, and even Natalia was like,
Sonny called Jensen back and he's like, I'm just tired
and I just want to go to practice. And you know,
was there anything else behind it? Do you think?
Speaker 2: That's what I asked him. And we've been kind of
Was he at all like a little bit underwhelmed by
hanging out with Jens?
Speaker 1: No, I asked him. I said, something happened? What's going on?
And he's like, no, Mom, it's just a coincidence this week, okay,
you know, and I because he would tell me, yeah,
So I said, okay, all right, and then and then
like a couple of days later, like I brought it up,
everything going good with the boys, and then he's like,
why is everybody asking me about how me and the
boys are doing. Everything's fine, Like Olga asked me, why
don't I want to play that? Played it? Oh so?
So then the next week he uh, okay. Then it's like,
can'da bitch be tired? I know, leave me the fuck.
So the next week he has this trampoline and he
got he finally got the the the basketball hoop put
up for his that's his Christmas present and he really hasn't.
He really wanted that basketball hoop and it got put
up and he was all excited. So Monday, were you
going to school? And I said, so, what are you
guys doing after school today? And I said, Sony, why
don't you He's like, I'm getting on that trampoline. And
I said, why don't you invite Jensen over? And you
guys go on the trail and he goes, I would,
but Olga doesn't let anybody come over after school because
Olga picks them up and I'm like, what do you
and she's like, he goes no, He's like, we're not
allowed to have playdates after school and to tell he's like, yeah,
she doesn't let us. And I noticed that they haven't
had any playdates and it's good because they need to
focus they need to get you know, on track with
their homework, and they've gotten so much better, their grades
have gotten better, and so I said, well, I think
we can make an exception one day. I think Jensen
really wants to see you, and he was like okay.
So then that day he comes home, no Jensen, and oh,
And I text Olga and I said, I think you
know this, you know this, you should probably have Oh.
This was after I got the text from the mom.
So then at the end of the week, I got
a text, long text, and it was like I was
talking to Jensen before bed tonight and he is feeling
really bad because he thinks said he did something because
he feels like Sonny never wants to do anything with him.
And Sonny's answer is always like if I say you
want to go do this, he'll say no, it's okay.
He'll say no, it's okay. That's his answer, like no,
I don't want to do it, and I just don't know, like,
and you know, I call him and he doesn't call
me back, and he's always you know, busy after school
and so you know, and so she's telling me all
this in the text, and now I'm like, oh, Jesus
crime Andy what And then so I text back and
I said, this, you know, breaks my heart. I'm sorry
because I rarely get this text and this is kind
of like the first time right from her, right, She's
not dramatic, right, So I was like, oh, this breaks
my heart. I said, it's just been such a cool
I said, you know, Olga and I were talking the
other day, like, Sonny hasn't asked for any any to
play with anybody, you know, because it's not Olga's not
like every day, you know, no play dates, but once
in a while they can, you know, go do something.
And he hasn't like usually some like at least once
or twice a week he wants to go do something.
And so I said, you know, it's weird. You know,
Olda and I were talking that he hasn't asked for anybody.
I really, Jens shouldn't take it seriously seriously. This was
coming off of a day, this is what happened. This
was coming off of a day where she planned a
day for them, and she said, I'm going to take
Jensen to this skate park where Jensen has a scooter
and his little brother has a scooter, and Sonny can
use his little brother's scooter. And we have helmets. I
got sunny, he's got his helmet, and I want to
take them to the park. Can Sonny go? And I said,
oh my god, he would love that. Sure. So she
picked them up and it was a nice day and
I had he had a great time. And now I
came home and he's like, I got my where's my
Amazon gift certificate from Christmas? He's like, I'm buying. I'm
going to go on Amazon buy a scooter. I want
a scooter and got like for like sixty bucks. And
I was like, a I get a scooter. And then
after that day, it was a nice day. And then
she was putting him to bed and he was saying this,
and I was like, but so you're like, well they
just hung out. That's what I said. I said, Sonny
had a great day. And he's like, all, you know,
inspired to go get in scooter now. And he was
actually saying like Jensen was showing him how to do everything.
And he never, you know, he never says anything's going
on or anything. I think it's just he hasn't been
wanting to do play dates or whatever. And so here's
where they so then I sent her a long, thoughtful
out text and I never she never text me back,
really no answer. And then I was on a group
text with somebody by a bunch of their moms about
something else and I answered she but she never. She
never answered me. She never said anything, and I thought
it was really strange. I don't like, did I say
something in the text like that sad did not genuine?
I don't know, but I just said, like, Sonny's fine,
he doesn't have any beefs because I know, you know,
I've asked him, so I don't know. And then and
then she's like, please keep this quiet because I don't want,
you know, him to feel like you know, and here
I am talking about it on the podcast. Well, so
but I did ask him, and he's like, why is
everybody asking me about you know? And I said, just
I don't know. I said, he's been wanting to play
date have play dates with you. So anyway, it's just
that it's just the whole not texting me back and
the mom you know, I'm just not used to that
is and I'm I don't like when I get it's
a nothing kind of you know, but nothing like why
do I get this like long text about you know,
it broke her heart, and he's like upset coming off
of a great day. I don't know, it's just that's
interesting that it was coming off of a great day. Yeah,
I said you had a good time. Yeah, okay, you
never didn't say anything. I was talking to him when
I was putting them to bed. Nothing, you know, And
so I don't know, it's weird.
Speaker 2: I have an opposite perspective you too, well, just I
had a situation. I don't know if I ever talk
to you about it on the podcast. Maybe I tried
not to in case they listened. But Sadie had a
thing with one of her friends that they were like
bff's all summer.
Speaker 1: Did I tell you about that? No? I don't.
Speaker 2: It was like her absolute BF. They hung out all
the time in the summer. I sometimes they slept over
at her house. They slept over at my house. We
had long days together, went to trips to Magic Mountain.
And then school started, and the suddenly Sadie was asking
for some playdates with the girl on the weekend and
the week and then always busy, and then every time
I asked, they said no, sorry, she can't and it
was like it was weird to me because we'd gone
from spending so much time with her. And then Sadie
said that the girl wasn't being nice to her at
school and was being like kind of icing, that s different. Yeah,
And then so then I eventually did write a similar
maybe a little bit of a Gensen mom type.
Speaker 1: Text, and I was like, hey, I oh.
Speaker 2: I tried to keep it light at first, and I
was like, hey, I hate to keep asking, but you know,
Sadie really wants to have a playdate. But if it's
if something's going on and she doesn't want to, just
tell me, so I can stop asking because I starting
the mom Ever, like, then she wrote back. So then
there was a long pause and she didn't answer. Then
she wrote back and she was like, no, we're just
really busy.
Speaker 1: On the weekends. We just have a lot of activities. Sorry.
So then I was like, but see that doesn't match
up with the behavior at school, right, And I get
that now this is a difference. This is a different scenario.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I've been on the other side of
it where I've been like not want like going, not
trying to make.
Speaker 1: A big deal, but like what's going on? But then
I did.
Speaker 2: I say it's something going on and she was like nope,
But then yeah, But then Sadie was like, she doesn't talk.
Speaker 1: To me anymore.
Speaker 2: She'd but BFS with this other girl now and she's
completely not acting like my friend. And there was this
part of me that really wanted to go Can we
talk about this to the mom?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: But I didn't because I reeled it in because I
didn't want to. And this is a different scenario. I
know it's different, but I'm saying I reeled it in
and I didn't say anything. Months and months went by
because we're talking. These two kids have not had a
play date since the summer and it's now January, right,
But I didn't say anything because Sadie asked me not.
Speaker 1: To also because she was like, it's not to help.
She's not going to play with me at school because you.
Speaker 2: Told her mom, like she's not being nice to me
at school, and you know, so I didn't And then
all of a sudden this weekend, Sadie's like, can I
have a playdate with this person? And I said, uh,
I mean, if you want to talk to her, if
you want to FaceTime her, or whatever, text her and see,
I'm not reaching out to don again.
Speaker 1: Not again. I did, I had. I can't tell you
how many times I asked and was told no, is
this the same family that doesn't do sleepovers.
Speaker 2: No, that's a different one. That's who she ended up
becoming friends with. And then I had to work on
those people and warm them up nice. And they've spend time,
they spend lots of time together and they're really good friends.
Good but this other girl was a real heartbreaker for
Sadie because that was like who she thought of as
her closest friend, her first like closed BF.
Speaker 1: And John was even really bummed about it.
Speaker 2: He's like, it's so disappointing because it was Sadie's first
life person she really liked and was fun and sparkly personality. Anyway,
the mom, I was like, I'm not I'm not texting her, right,
I'm not, so if you want to work it out.
So then Sadie worked it out with the girl and
she was like, yeah, she wants to and her mom
said yes. So I texted the mom and I was like,
apparently the girls want to get together, You're welcome to
bring her over. And she was like sure, I'm going
to bring her over at such and such a time.
I wasn't home because I honestly didn't even want to
be there, and like I was just like, yeah, it's
been like six or seven months.
Speaker 1: You know, that's weird. But John said, but she came over.
Speaker 2: I was with the other I was shopping with Xander
and taking Elbie and her friends somewhere. I have too
many kids. But apparently they had a great time, and
I was glad that I didn't make a bigger drama
out of it, right, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, yeah, because there's still the real did is
I know?
Speaker 2: So I'm saying I'm kind of coming in on your
side too, where it's like it doesn't always necessarily.
Speaker 1: Have to be right, the parents working it out and
getting envited. It's like you can't. Yeah, and on Stadie's right,
it's not going to change her and like she's not
gonna go because your mom said we should be friends.
That the icing out and so why do the girls
do like girls do that? And I don't get it,
Like it's I know that Natalia's has she's seen it,
and Natalia is sort of kind of doing it to
one of her friends now and I don't like it,
and and she's like, she's like, you know, because I
took her and Olivia to dinner and we kind of
talked about their friends and they have another friend and
that they were close with, and she's like, I don't know.
I just we ask her if she wants to come
and do stuff with us, and she doesn't. She just
wants to, like, you know, be with her other friend.
And I don't know. It just breaks my heart because
they were like so good.
Speaker 2: I don't know, the dynamics in this at this age
are so crazy, like they really do. LB and her
was in a little group and one of the girls
in their group was like, I don't want to be.
Speaker 1: Friends with you guys anymore. You're boring.
Speaker 2: Yeah bye right bye bitches. And now she's friends with
this other girl, and they're all like, what happened?
Speaker 1: What happened?
Speaker 2: She doesn't neat lunch with us anymore. She has like
totally new friends. See the other girl and they're like,
we didn't, we didn't, we don't know what happened. The
same the same exact.
Speaker 1: Natalia has a sister that goes that went to middle
school and she's in seventh grade, and there was a
little close she was close with like four of them
and they were very close. And then one of them,
as soon as they started middle school, one of them
had a birthday party sleepover and invited everybody but one
of the other girls like yeah, and that it was horrible, and.
Speaker 2: That girl is I feel like the mom should have
insisted that I the girl of the mom. I little
controversy with the mom.
Speaker 1: She doesn't get along with another mom who I really
like and respect, and I don't know that mom very well,
so I trust what the mom I do know, and
she's like she's a batch right right, and she's had
some run ins with her, and so I get it.
But the girl I took her once to Disneyland with
me because she's friends with the big sister anyway, and
she's really sweet. She's a really sweet girl. And all
of the girls are really sweet. The one that got
iced out is super sweet and was on like Natalia's
basketball team. And that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Even if the moms don't get along, don't you just
go like you can't just suddenly eliminate like like thee.
Speaker 1: Doesn't give it, like she doesn't look at it that way.
I think she's just like, well, let them make their
own decisions. If that's their decision, that's their decision. So
I don't like that. I don't like it either.
Speaker 2: I don't like that you don't know, making your own
decisions at zero eleven, the rest of don exclude one
girl when they didn't even.
Speaker 1: Do if you know, I know, isn't that? So from
what I understand, the rest of the other girls are
closer with that girl that got iced out and they
iced out the oh the icy ier. Yeah, the ier
they iced out the iicer. The icer became the icy right,
so she's the icya. Now she got banished, Oh, she
got sent to the course. It didn't work out. Yeah,
it didn't work out for her. So now she's kind
of I don't know, but but I've also heard that
she's gone off with other like the popular kids, you know,
because there's new kids. They all meet new kids at
the middle school and then they go off and start
their own relationships. And it's like, I worry like that,
you know this is going to happen.
Speaker 2: It's so different now, like than when we were I
can't even imagine my mom like getting involved I know
my mom could not have given a shit less Yes,
I know my mom.
Speaker 1: Gon you speak English. My mom gave zero fox about
my social life. Yeah, my mom. Like my mom didn't
like most of my friends. She only liked the pretty ones.
Isn't that horrible right? The overweight ones were lazy? Don't
to hang out with that of Pama. She's a lazy.
She's a lazy. She doesn't like the work that. She
doesn't like her to do anything. She gets a bad
a grades that. Don't hang out with her. You don't
need to hang out with her. Oh, Tina, you're pretty,
hang out with a Tina. Where's the Tina? Where's Tina? Josephine?
She always calls my friends by the wrong names too.
I like that she gives them all Italian names. Yes,
she'd be like, why don't you hang out with Maria?
She did that. Josephine was one name. You're like, her
name's Dola. I know, Dahlia. You with all of your friends,
Jefe and Maria and the Santa Margarita. You don't need
to hang out with those people. I'm like, who are
those people? I don't you're making up names? Mom?
Speaker 2: She listen Jesus, where's the Tony? Just every all guys
are Tony and all girls are Maria murryeh oh.
Speaker 1: And then my boyfriend Mike Gerstein came over like She's like,
I don't not like him. Why daddy likes him? He's
a nice Jewish boy. I don't like him. I don't
trust him because in the end, he's going to win
and you were going to lose. That was her line,
Like like what when? What what? I don't know what
you're talking about? When what she's she would have Oh god,
was she talking about your virginity? I think that's what
she was talking about. Like, don't to hang out with him.
He's a brick layer. That's that's another thing. Everybody was
a brick layer. Anybody that was lazy and no good
for me and not a good boyfriend was a brick layer.
But I don't understand that even that is that like
as a job, Yeah, he's a brick because that sounds hard.
That's like manual labor. Yeah, that means like they're not
making any money. Oh, there's no good they're not making
any money. What if it's union because Mike worked for
the cable company. Oh, it would come over and he's
a cable layer, yes, and he would like rig our cable.
So we got free cable. I wouldn't go out every
couple of months though, like Mike, you got to come
back over. And she enjoyed the free cable, which was
fine for her because she got to watch Jakala Lane
in the morning and work out in the morning with
a Jacque Lane. She loved Jacqueline. Oh my god, my god.
Speaker 2: We had we had stolen cable when I was everybody
every late twenties, I feel like living in Santa Monica.
So we got somebody back. But the cable person would
sometimes you could pay them off. You give them like
fifty bucks and they'd hook through your apartment building, right,
they'd just let they would have the cable come through
your into your unit, into your unit, passed through, right,
and then they would just put it out a connector
so you'd get cable, connect it off of everyone else's cable, right, fifty.
Speaker 1: Bucks and you'd just have cable. But then how much
was cable by you think about my dad had a
nice job. I mean, we weren't spit poor, but we
were middle class. Like, why can't you pay like I
don't know. Wasn't it like twelve ninety nine a month
or something like we don't need a cable. I don't know.
I mean I think it was expensive. Yeah, maybe it was.
Speaker 2: But I remember then there was a big scare because
the cable companies were going around checking everybody's.
Speaker 1: Units to see if you were stealing cable. Yes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then I believe, because this was a long
time ago, but I believe that they did come through
because you know, we didn't own our unit.
Speaker 1: We rented and then one day we came and there
was no more cable. Yeah, that happened to us. It
was a sad day really, because Mike was like, I
can't I'm sorry, I can't go. I can't do it.
I'm gonna get in trouble. And I'm like, really, it
was horrible. You're like, isn't it just a little connector?
I know? And we had the old TV, Like the
TV was horrible. Well, I grew up with the TV
where you got changed physically changed the channel. Yeah, remember those.
Speaker 2: That's no joke that we go Like when I was
a kid, you had to get up. There were no
remote controls. Three channels, four channels, right, you had CBS, NBC, ABC,
and then Fox even came a little later, right, but
we had we had Channel five, Channel five and Channel
fifty two, that one that you really needed the antenna
to get Channel fifty two so I could watch Kimba
the White Lion.
Speaker 1: Right. I remember going to my friend's house. She was
a rich one who lived in the hills, and and
she had cable and she had on TV and Select TV,
and there there was a Channel X, right, yeah, I
think so, I don't. I just remember that you could
get movies, yes, And there was the movie Through the
Green Door or through the Green Glass, okay, and behind
the Green Door, Behind the Green Door, yeah, the last
Maryland Chambers. Yeah, porn, but it was it wasn't like
I think she didn't she couldn't have it or something.
It kind of was like, you know, staticky, and I
remember watching it going what the fuck is going on?
Like that's the first time I saw porn. I was like,
holy shit, I must have been eleven. I must have
been the kid's age. Yeah, no, weird.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm trying to remember how old I was when
I saw something dirty, like something.
Speaker 1: On TV or mm hmm. I remember like this guy,
this kid at my school, Mike Stone, and he brought
Playboy and everybody was looking at it, and I remember
seeing it going, oh my god. Then I wanted to
see it. What's going on on the magazine? Let me see?
Let me see? I mean, I but I think I
was like in seventh grade. I think I'm pretty sure
because I picturing the school and it was middle school.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what else, Like, I don't know
what LBC. And I don't want to be like a
total no getter parent, but it's not really a no getter.
It's more like a no wanna know get her.
Speaker 1: Yah. I don't want to know. I want to know getter,
Like I don't want to know what she knows. I
know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I like to think of her as innocent, although I
know she does know stuff. It's interesting. I remember, I
wonder if I ever told you this before. I remember
getting a hold of a copy of my parents The
Joy of Sex pretty young age, and so I knew
kind of you know. But it was like these drawings
of the positions. But in one of the pages, the
woman had this what looked to me to be a
knife and was holding it up against the guy's penis,
and I always was so completely freaked out by that, like,
oh my god, like why is she cutting off his penis?
Like why is she have a knife? And it was
a very scary image to me for many years. But
I didn't want my parents to know that I've been
looking at right joy of sex. Years later, I somehow
it came up. I don't know about the joy of sex,
and I had I don't know if it was to
my mom later. You'd think this would be seared in
my memory if it was a conversation I had with
my mom. But it literally I was like older at this,
like over eighteen when I was like this picture always
freaked me out. And whoever it was, either my mom
or someone else, was like, that's a vibrator. And I
was like, oh my god, thank god.
Speaker 1: John Wayne Bobbit, Oh my god, do.
Speaker 2: You even know what I'm talking now? Okay, it looked
like a knife. It looked like she's holding a night
It was some sexual drawing. Yeah, it was a sex toy.
Speaker 1: Well obviously a knife. To me, artists did know how
to draw a vibrator. They did not, and they freaked
you out. I had the encyclopedias, and then I knew
like like one of them, like I don't know the trial,
you know, like the African tribal whatever people, and I
just remember seeing like the boobs, the women like with
the holding the thing on their heads, with their rights.
I'm like going, oh, they have to walk around naked
like that. Oh my god, that's horrible. I remember seeing that.
And then I remember seeing some other like the boobs
in another encyclopedia, and I would just like, you know,
I was a pervert. I would like look at that,
and then I would I would want to talk to
my parents about it, but I was like too shy,
like all right, go what's going on here. I don't
remember what that other image was, but but I remember
the women carrying the pots on their head and then
like their babies around, you know, on their stomach, and going,
oh my god, can't they cover up? Can they get
some leaves or something? They felt bad so they may
get some leaves? Holy shit? Yeah, yeah, I was a pervert.
And in the end he's going to win. You are
going to lose, and you're like, well I kind of
wanted to. I did win, by the way, when he
went to rehab and he did construction. He was a
bricklayer the rest of his life. I love Mike though
I'm friends with him. Yeah you are. Yeah, it's fine,
I'm fine, I'm one anyway. What else is going on? Well,
we were talking about moms. Yeah, the yeah, so you
had so that situation is not really is there some tension? Then?
Still no? Then I saw her at the game over
the weekend and that was fine. And then I did say, oh,
you know, Olga does tell them like no playdates, and
she goes, oh, that's good to know. She's like that.
That's going to help Jensen because he just didn't know
if he did something or what was going on. And
I love the fact that he loves Sonny so much.
I think it's really sweet. Yeah, I know, I feel bad.
I felt bad, But just the no answering me was weird. Yeah.
And it went on for like a week, right, and
she was like she was available, she was answering other
texts and stuff group text but she never said anything.
I don't know. The whole thing is weird. And I
told Adam he's got to talk to Sonny about sex.
Oh good, he doesn't know about it yet. Well, they
had the film at school, but I don't think, you know,
I think they need to be told what's going on. Yeah,
because I'm sure I'm like you, I don't know. I
don't know what he's I check it sometimes and.
Speaker 2: Well, I know my kids know that to make a baby,
a penis has to go into the vagina. And I
know they were like, oh yeah, and I was like,
exactly right, it's gross, but they they have we haven't really,
we didn't really, there's not a lot of follow up, right,
it happened, right, Yeah, I've never talked to them about
that because they don't want I bring, like, you guys
know the mechanics, you're good everything else you need to know.
Speaker 1: You can hear about it on the playground, right, Jensen
will explain it to you. And Matthew, oh my god.
Speaker 2: Well Alby has all those like American Girl books, but
I don't know if they really get into the actual
So I should get Elbie's some kind of book about sex.
Speaker 1: Well, I learned sex through Judy Bloom. Yes, that's really
honestly reading how what happens like when a guy approaches
a girl and they start kissing, and the girl gets
excited and then he touches her boob and then he
puts her hand, his hand down her pants, like, h okay,
that's how it goes, right, That's how I think I learned.
He's gonna win and you are gonna lose, I know,
And I'm with you. I don't. I'm a no want
to get her because I don't want to know what
they're looking at. I mean, I have to and I
check it, but I'm scared. And luckily like she doesn't.
She did like that one time a long time ago
when she saw somebody like she googled like pretty boobs.
But yeah, Katy Perry, Yes, oh yeah, Katy Perry. And
then you know, got hooked onto a website that she
shouldn't have been on, right, and uh, and I talked
to her about that. Sonny, he's just he does. He
did look at some boobs, I think I did see,
but I don't think he was searching for it. He
was searching for like funny videos and he was probably
more horrified. Yeah, and like titillated right.
Speaker 2: Literally, I'm sure they'll learn everything they need to know
from Snapchat.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I know, and Instagram what the hell?
I know?
Speaker 2: Why I know Albe's forever showing me memes and like
funny things. She's on all the and I'm always like,
she's just like one click away seeing something that she
really shouldn't see.
Speaker 1: I agree, but we got I got it, Like I
have the restrictions, but I don't think it's real restrictions.
I don't know how well it works. Like I'm trying
to figure out the YouTube restriction and I think I
got it, but I don't know. Even Like I posted
that video of Natalia singing with Phil, and Facebook was like, no,
this is you can't post that. This has somebody else's
property in it. Oh really? Yeah, at Christmas time because
I love that video where she's singing maybe it's cold
outside with Phil and uh, and she's singing it and
she it's the end of a movie and it's playing
and it's the song, and so she's watching it in
her pgs and she's cuddling with Phil and that's being
played on the TV. But I'm focusing on her and
Phil and she's like singing and then she makes Phil's
mouth move a little bit, you know, And YouTube wouldn't
allow of that. No, not YouTube, Facebook. That's so weird
to me. Yeah, they were like, na, this is intellectual property.
Can't and they didn't post it. That's so interesting, I know.
Speaker 2: I mean you see stuff all the time, that's right,
I know, but YouTube, you could probably get away with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't really do YouTube. But they want
to have a YouTube channel. And I don't know how
I feel about that. I know, so do my kids.
They do well, they do.
Speaker 2: I was gonna let them, but Sadie didn't really put
anything on it. But they have one, and then they
didn't they have to make actually make videos. I don't
know a lot of their friends have it. I feel
like it could be probably kind of innocent.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I kind of like, I mean, Sonny and
cousin Sal's son Archie are doing like you know, their
their commentary and oh and he showed video of the game.
They showed it, they edited and they showed videos of
the game and then he said it wouldn't go through
when he tried to post it. Oh uh huh.
Speaker 2: You know what I watched on YouTube last night for
a really long time. Somebody eating rollercoaster accidents. Oh my god,
I know, I'm literally went. I watched so many videos
that were like and I couldn't believe myself. I was like, man,
I'm really into this gory stuff.
Speaker 1: I was like, let me see.
Speaker 2: Well, while we're at it, let's see some airplane crashes
I watched.
Speaker 1: But are you still okay with I'll be going to
Magic Mountain totally. Well, half the roller coaster.
Speaker 2: You only have like a one in seven hundred and
fifty million chance of dying on a roller coaster.
Speaker 1: So that's the most of them. Are those stupid carnivals
and stuff.
Speaker 2: Yes, or really like from a long time ago, or
like in Iran or something like get your safety up
to code, or it'll be like some new one like
some it's the disco creates the first time they ever
tried this new thing, and then it's like it falls down.
But also they're never that graphic. It's always like you're watching.
There's one that's I guess kind of famous because it
was on so many little compilations. This is how long
I was watching We're Woman. It's one of those swing
you know those swings where the ride is just goes around, Yes,
and they're the swings and the swing really fast and
then you get circle and you throw up.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, oh it's you're watching it, watching it, and then
somebody flies off. I was like, Elbie, come here, of
course not they were long since in bed.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I know I do that too. Sometimes
I get sucked in because there's like I want to
read an article that somebody posts on Twitter something, and
I'm reading it, and then uh, and then on the
side there's like, you know, like something like I'm trying
to think of a one that I've seen recently, Oh,
celebrities without makeup, thirty five celebrities, And I'm sitting there,
I'm clicking through all thirty five right right, and they
show with me, they side by side, you know, and
some of them I'm like, what the fuck? They look
fine alone? Like Hillary Duff, She's fine here alone. And
then you know, and then that takes you to like
the divorce between so and so and right, you know,
suddenly you're on a site where somebody through acid in
somebody's face. Oh how did I get what? I know?
How I get here? And then you're like, well, let
me see them before and after pictures, right. But I
was just trying to just trying to read, like I
don't know, like a technology article, and the next thing
I know, I'm looking at you know, or celebrities dimples
in their ass at the beach, right, look at these
look at these poor celebrities. I mean, leave them alone,
my god. But I'm going to be the first one
to watch it. I'm gonna sit there while my kids
are going I'm hungry. I want to be there in
a second. Number seventeen and then I don't know where
the one is that you got to swipe that this arrow.
Sometimes I get stuck. I hit an arrow and then
it takes me to an ad and I'm like, now,
fuck that, I don't want that to ad. Go back
and I'm trying to like find it. You're like, I'm
trying to lead John Goodman's fat again or not? Is
he thinner fat? Right now? How much is this a
new picture at all? Wow? I know, trying to get
its load. Come on, be right there. I'm only on fifteen.
Speaker 2: I hate the ones that you have to go to
like that have just to get to the picture or
it takes like four clicks, yes, Like it's like then
they tell you another sentence of the story who you're
going to find out.
Speaker 1: Like had a baby out of wedlock, and You're like, well,
get to the fucking point, and it's like, and then
she met this person. You're like, click again.
Speaker 2: Then you got to click, and then there's an AD
and then you got to click again, and you're like, oh.
Speaker 1: My god, I know. It's like when I was trying
to look at the and ze so I'm sorry whatever
I mean when you go. The thing I hate is
that you click on it and it takes you to
the website and then you start reading it and then
all of a sudden it stops and it says you
would subscribe. Would you like to subscribe? No? And then
I hit no, and then they go, okay, fine, don't subscribe.
There's like one line now that says, okay, if you
don't want the free, if you don't want get twenty
percent off of cac ease next time when you buy them. Whatever, Fine,
that's fine, and you click have you seen that? Yes,
of course, right, like okay, if you don't want the
twenty percent off, fine, yeah, And then I'm trying to
read and then I'm like, are you so rich that
you don't need twenty percent off? Fine? Khakis. I'm trying
to fucking read about the divorce of so and so
or whatever, and and this all this the clicking and stuff,
it just keeps popping up. Or they make you have you.
Speaker 2: Ever done the ones where they literally make you take
a survey to keep reading the article. They give you
like a few a paragraph and then they're like, you
want to keep reading, well, you're gonna tell us which
sunscreen you right, And you're like, oh my god, I know,
and now which ad would you rather see if you
were Yeah, okay, fine, I guess email for tone.
Speaker 1: Fine, and then they're like okay, and then Coppertone sends
you an email. A few days I got a fucking
Coppertone email in your inbox, right, and then it just
starts to pile up.
Speaker 2: It's fucked up, right, and you're like, well, I don't
need it's the winter, I don't need sunscreen right now.
And they're like, well, maybe you shouldn't have taken that
want the teeth whitening treatment.
Speaker 1: No, I'm good, And God forbid, God forbid you're reading,
you're scrolling, God forbid you accidentally touch something like in
the article has lengths to something else like lung cancer,
and it's like lit up and you know you click
on it. Now it takes you to web md about
lung cancer.
Speaker 2: Suddenly you have a lawyer to get your mess of case.
You're like, what, like, I don't even I don't have
I don't even know what that is. I don't have
a mesh insert in my bladder.
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. Why do I need a lawyer
for that? This morning, I was reading something uh on
the tech I get all the tech stuff I love.
I click on it and the next thing I know,
I'm reading about a model that lost both her legs
because she got toxic shock syndrome. No, did you see that?
Of course I did. Now I'm bummed out. And I
was trying to read it about the calls the first
flag like a while ago. I know, I know, I
was so scared. I didn't use a tampon it forever,
not until like eighteen, maybe even twenty. And now I hated.
I was scared of tampons, and I was like, I'm
gonna get toxic shocks.
Speaker 2: And I use them right through that scare really yep,
because it was a big deal and left tampon's in
for way too long.
Speaker 1: Oh shit, I forgot. Oh that's happened to me more.
A week later, I'm like, what my god, Oh my god,
