Speaker 1: Welcome to the two seventeen were numbering broadcast. If you
Speaker 1: don't make mistakes, you won't learn.
Speaker 2: With your host Corey Winfield, like, oh my gosh, I'm
Speaker 2: going into a place there can few people like talking to.
Speaker 1: Walls And there was some of that, but it was
Speaker 1: still pretty co host party Winfield.
Speaker 3: They don't get that sincere messaging, then they're not going
Speaker 3: to have that conversation on a level where maybe you
Speaker 3: can get through to them.
Speaker 1: Special guest Corey Smoker.
Speaker 4: I don't want to hear the hero over here, but
Speaker 4: then I know what you're skipping down the street over
Speaker 4: there doing.
Speaker 3: You know't got your wab.
Speaker 2: It is the thirtieth of January twenty twenty six, the
Speaker 2: first podcast of the new year.
Speaker 1: Welcome.
Speaker 2: I've been busy, Yeah, stuff going on, man, Corey Smoker,
Speaker 2: Arnie Winfield.
Speaker 1: In the studio today.
Speaker 4: We all finally made it in one room together.
Speaker 2: I know it's been it's been a while, it's been
Speaker 2: in forever almost. I think the last podcast we did
Speaker 2: was the seven year anniversary. I was December fifteenth. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so I was like we got to get one in
Speaker 2: before January ends.
Speaker 4: Yes, I feel like there was that one that you're
Speaker 4: trying to make me the special host.
Speaker 3: Was that before that or after?
Speaker 2: I'm not sure you'll yeah, okay, it could have been
Speaker 2: this morning.
Speaker 1: I have no idea. We're here now, yes, yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's going well.
Speaker 2: And I was thinking about the podcast and what I
Speaker 2: used to use it for and man, it helped, you know,
Speaker 2: to get stuff off my chest. And lately the reason
Speaker 2: why I kind of haven't been new a podcast because
Speaker 2: I've just been afraid that I'm going to take the
Speaker 2: the stuff that's just going on, the stuff that I'm
Speaker 2: too close to and just like ah, and I don't
Speaker 2: want to use this as like a platform to do
Speaker 2: like that, you know. So it's just like kind of
Speaker 2: important to get back to having fun again and to
Speaker 2: doing this podcast. And I think of topics tons throughout
Speaker 2: the day. I'm like, maybe we should do a podcast
Speaker 2: about that. And I think it's good that you guys
Speaker 2: are sitting down and we're actually going to do one today,
Speaker 2: are actually doing one right now. But one thing I
Speaker 2: want to talk to you guys about is AI and
Speaker 2: how it runs your life, because I can see how
Speaker 2: many emails that I get that just come and I'm
Speaker 2: just like, hey, I wrote that, and then I feel like,
Speaker 2: because my vocabulary and attitude, I guess whatever you want
Speaker 2: to say isn't the best. So like I'll type it
Speaker 2: out like oh, here's what I would say back, and
Speaker 2: I'll throw it into some AI and then it'll kick
Speaker 2: back the same thing pretty much that was sent to me.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, okay, so I know someone used AI
Speaker 2: to send this to me, and I'm using AI, so
Speaker 2: we're pretty much just using AI to say hello to
Speaker 2: each other, which seems kind of weird.
Speaker 4: But I don't know, because you're you're typing in there
Speaker 4: way you want it to stay. AI is just formattying
Speaker 4: it in a better language, yeah.
Speaker 1: And taking out cuss words and stuff.
Speaker 3: There are there are some times where I think that
Speaker 3: it it can skew the message some if you're not
Speaker 3: if you don't look you back over you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like you'll there's wording and stuff that gets
Speaker 3: put in automatically that you know isn't really exactly what
Speaker 3: I wanted it to say, Like you know, for me,
Speaker 3: like my so I always if I ever use it,
Speaker 3: which I do use it not often, not probably as
Speaker 3: often as my husband, but I do use it. It's
Speaker 3: kind of more when I want it to be like
Speaker 3: more clear and concise instead of like being all over
Speaker 3: the place. Yeah, because I kind of I kind of
Speaker 3: always know what I'm going to say and how I
Speaker 3: want to say it. It's just like wanting to make
Speaker 3: sure that I'm not like repeating myself or you know,
Speaker 3: have it be confusing. I think I feel that I'm
Speaker 3: fairly well spoken and like my vocabulary whatever you want
Speaker 3: to call it. But I don't want to sound like
Speaker 3: I don't try to use like huge big words to
Speaker 3: like sound cool. And so when I think lots of
Speaker 3: times when I put chatje put it in like CHATJEPT
Speaker 3: or whatever, as long as I review it and make
Speaker 3: sure like what's there is what I really want to say,
Speaker 3: then yeah, I'm all for it. It's the bottom line.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I noticed, and it's AI and you hit down
Speaker 2: this morning too. It's how you give it direction and
Speaker 2: what you tell it to do and what you put
Speaker 2: in there. I think I'm horrible at this stuff. I
Speaker 2: was trying to chat with my sisters the other day
Speaker 2: in a text chat, and man it it was horrible.
Speaker 2: And then I kind of put two and two together,
Speaker 2: and like when I do that with chat JEBT or
Speaker 2: the other whatever stuff. It never it's all it's horrible.
Speaker 2: And then I started thinking, like this is why people
Speaker 2: don't understand what I say. It's because this is probably
Speaker 2: what I really sound like, you know, LIKEGBT can't even
Speaker 2: get it out.
Speaker 1: I don't even know how people listen to this? Is
Speaker 1: that what I really sound like?
Speaker 4: Well, sometimes it's like we're covering three things in one
Speaker 4: sentence and I'm like what does that mean? Like what
Speaker 4: am okay? Now?
Speaker 3: What am I supposed to do? Or or you don't
Speaker 3: respond to the like last three text questions and then
Speaker 3: you respond to the first one, but you're not really
Speaker 3: sure what the response is for you tend to do
Speaker 3: that that has nothing to do with AI though. That
Speaker 3: has to do with your you paying attention.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: It comes in fights with me like it's like, seriously,
Speaker 2: this is the fifth time I'm not doing it anymore,
Speaker 2: And I'm like, what hold on? Like you're fighting with me? Like, hey,
Speaker 2: I fighting with me? Maybe this is how I talk
Speaker 2: to my employees like this, This is the directions I give
Speaker 2: to everybody?
Speaker 1: Is everybody want to fight me? Like this? This is bad?
Speaker 3: Knock knock knock.
Speaker 4: I got a mental condition obviously.
Speaker 1: Oh man, Yeah, well yeah, do we tell that story yet? No? No,
Speaker 1: is that going to be your section of the podcast episode? Corey?
Speaker 3: She tells it the best. You know, it's funny because
Speaker 3: she wasn't even there, but she tells.
Speaker 1: It the best.
Speaker 5: I don't know, but I'm all died and no I
Speaker 5: get to I'm sitting here like I'm on the spotlight
Speaker 5: docket right now because both of you looking at me,
Speaker 5: but you two can't look at each other.
Speaker 3: Well, rewind, rewind It's fine. I can compliment the story
Speaker 3: in terms of what actually happened, But all of this
Speaker 3: has to do and why this is getting brought up
Speaker 3: now is all this has to do with, Like Corey
Speaker 3: has attention span pretty much is what this has to
Speaker 3: do with basically, obviously.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now I'll let you guys tell it. Let Corey
Speaker 2: tell the story.
Speaker 4: Well, I just get told the story, so I just
Speaker 4: tell it. There's only the really the one piece, but Pitt,
Speaker 4: so if you just close your eyes and picture this.
Speaker 4: Marnie has Corey go with her to the police station
Speaker 4: because she needs to report damage to her car that
Speaker 4: happened in a parking lot. Well, so I'm not sure
Speaker 4: where because sometimes Corey I see him sitting in the
Speaker 4: car and waiting, and then sometimes he's going in where
Speaker 4: he thought that going in was maybe a good idea.
Speaker 4: But today Corey decided he was going to go in
Speaker 4: and support his wife. And I was like, that's amazing.
Speaker 4: So I'm like sitting here thinking of Corey sitting in
Speaker 4: law jail or police department. And now you see his
Speaker 4: legs shaking, and then he's around and you can only
Speaker 4: see like three things on the wall, so he's definitely
Speaker 4: not reading them because now he just wants to tear
Speaker 4: every one of them apart. And he's in public with
Speaker 4: his wife. So so Corey's getting anxious because now his
Speaker 4: head's running eight miles a minute and he's got twenty
Speaker 4: things to do. He just doesn't know which one we're
Speaker 4: gonna do. And so he goes up to the window
Speaker 4: where the little officers were going behind the window with
Speaker 4: the you know the little metal circle you talked through,
Speaker 4: and he's like, is anyone coming, Like, I mean, are
Speaker 4: they walking up here?
Speaker 3: Like they're on their way here? Someone's coming, right, So
Speaker 3: I got a mental condition.
Speaker 1: Like that. I think it was.
Speaker 3: Pretty you were pretty.
Speaker 4: You were pretty probably.
Speaker 3: To the pretty.
Speaker 1: I was pretty assertive, Yes I was. I was pretty
Speaker 1: assertive saying it.
Speaker 3: But I think I think we had waited. We had
Speaker 3: maybe waited about I would say it was less than
Speaker 3: ten minutes. It was probably like eight or nine minutes.
Speaker 3: But I think what throw them off was we were
Speaker 3: on I had called the police station and they had said,
Speaker 3: you know, you need just find come in, say your
Speaker 3: name at the whatever. We'll let you in and then
Speaker 3: we'll send an officer up to look at your car.
Speaker 3: So that made it sound like we know you're coming,
Speaker 3: and this is what's gonna happen, and it's gonna be
Speaker 3: like being bang boom, kind of like what she said,
Speaker 3: not like oh, you come here and then wait and
Speaker 3: then we'll send it off or see who's available. It was.
Speaker 3: So that was a little misleading, I will see.
Speaker 4: And it's probably because right people they tell people to
Speaker 4: call and come up there, well you don't know when
Speaker 4: they're coming.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well she had said like, you can come up here now,
Speaker 3: and I was like, great, I'm in town, so I'll
Speaker 3: be on my way. Good sounds good. And then it
Speaker 3: was just and I don't get me wrong, it was
Speaker 3: an awkward place. There was a probably some trauma response there,
Speaker 3: like being in that whole area, you know, like not
Speaker 3: that I've not that it's a jail, but it has
Speaker 3: that very kind of there's just.
Speaker 4: That anxiety, Like I get it every time I pull
Speaker 4: into the sally Port and they shut the door behind
Speaker 4: me and I'm like they don't let me out. I'm like,
Speaker 4: come on, you can come in.
Speaker 3: No, I'm good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and not my finest moment, but you know, some
Speaker 2: things checked out because there's a lot of things that
Speaker 2: make sense if something else that did it.
Speaker 3: Yesterday too, when we were went with a taxpit person.
Speaker 4: You told her you have a mental condition.
Speaker 3: No, he didn't, he was just sitting. We were sitting
Speaker 3: and our appointment was at our appointment was at three thirty.
Speaker 3: I told him that we would be there at three
Speaker 3: forty five because I thought I had a zoom that
Speaker 3: was gonna last until three thirty. So I was like,
Speaker 3: is it okay if we get there at three forty five.
Speaker 3: He's like, yeah, no problem.
Speaker 2: She tells everybody got driving the car to get there
Speaker 2: at three thirty.
Speaker 3: No, And then I called I texted the guy. I said,
Speaker 3: literally I was like just kidding. My two thirty canceled,
Speaker 3: so we will be there on time, and he wrote
Speaker 3: back with thumbs up. I'm like great, three thirty. Back
Speaker 3: on for three thirty. So we get there at literally
Speaker 3: three point thirty one. We were coach late and walk
Speaker 3: in and she's like, you can go in the conference
Speaker 3: room and wait for him. So we go in there
Speaker 3: and we wait for him until like it was like
Speaker 3: three forty five, and he's just like, well, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: and I'm like he's like, oh, let's right, I can't
Speaker 3: leave because we drove here together. He's about ready to
Speaker 3: like we wanted to go because he wasn't in the
Speaker 3: room yet.
Speaker 2: There's things going on, working on some things that work
Speaker 2: that was pretty important that they need to get done.
Speaker 1: There's a deadline for that.
Speaker 3: And meeting with the tax person about the taxes for
Speaker 3: the business aren't isn't relative at all.
Speaker 4: No, So it's like, man, it's just this, I mean,
Speaker 4: and we all default of it, right, It's just it's
Speaker 4: the key of patients.
Speaker 2: It might be deeper than that, well, and it be yeah,
Speaker 2: it could be hereditary.
Speaker 4: Who knows, I mean, I know for me, I know
Speaker 4: for me though my patients. I don't have a lot
Speaker 4: of patients.
Speaker 3: I've had to learn.
Speaker 4: You you learn, it's something you learn, especially as being parents.
Speaker 4: Your patients will.
Speaker 2: Grow in situations I think, and speaking of being in
Speaker 2: parents and all that stuff. Marnie, it's been so long
Speaker 2: since you've been on the podcast really that you've talked
Speaker 2: about how it feels being a mama a little boy.
Speaker 2: Oh man, he's nineteen months old, twenty twenty months old.
Speaker 2: You don't know he is twenty months old.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's twenty months old. He's a handful. He's amazing
Speaker 3: and I love every minute of it. Yeah, he's not.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're just things that are like particular to
Speaker 3: each Each child's different, you know, Like he's I'm not
Speaker 3: a very consistent eater, So like that's frustrating because as
Speaker 3: a parent, we need to make sure that we're like
Speaker 3: making sure they're being fed, and if they don't eat
Speaker 3: one thing, then you try something else. So now I'm
Speaker 3: like making compensating, making all these these things hoping that
Speaker 3: he'll consume some of one of them.
Speaker 4: You just start, you make a plate for yourself at thirty.
Speaker 3: But here's where the patience things comes in, is like
Speaker 3: he default is the those cut up peaches or pears,
Speaker 3: you know, and not the ones in like goo, not
Speaker 3: in like sugar, but just in like the fruit juice anyway.
Speaker 3: And I obviously I would opt for fresh fruit over anything.
Speaker 3: He'll do grapes and blueberries, but sometimes he's just spent
Speaker 3: on those, so they get the little cups of them,
Speaker 3: and those are like he loves them. He loves them.
Speaker 3: He'll eat those no matter what. But you need to
Speaker 3: be patient. You need to sit there and like helps,
Speaker 3: you know, feed him the peaches. He will not. Corey
Speaker 3: will not sit there and feed him. He will be like, oh,
Speaker 3: he took two bites and then he started grabbing them
Speaker 3: out and making a mess. And I'm like, okay, that's
Speaker 3: what he does because he's a twenty month year old
Speaker 3: baby boy. Well he wants to feel it, sure, so
Speaker 3: he just puts it away. He just stops feeding them.
Speaker 2: Right or if he wants them, I'll feed it to
Speaker 2: him on a spoon. But I don't just set it
Speaker 2: out for like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he wants them. But you need to sit
Speaker 3: there and wait for him to want them again. You
Speaker 3: don't just put them up and just leave them there
Speaker 3: and you're done.
Speaker 2: I don't just set them on the counters with the
Speaker 2: I don't set them on the table.
Speaker 1: In front of him.
Speaker 4: Put him in the chair in the middle.
Speaker 2: If he wants him again, he knows where they're at.
Speaker 2: He goes up to the table and starts wanting them.
Speaker 3: Mmmm.
Speaker 1: But not in the middle of all his toys that
Speaker 1: he just looks at it. He goes app throwing the ground.
Speaker 1: That's what happens anyway.
Speaker 4: No, well, he just wants his peaches, want to ride
Speaker 4: the truck and stuff, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he pushes them in the truck blueberries.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is. It's a thing go for a ride.
Speaker 2: And I just don't feel clean it up because I'm
Speaker 2: the guy who has to do it. So Marnie does too.
Speaker 2: She actually does it all, but like when she's not there,
Speaker 2: living rock peaches around the house.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, he'll he'll put all fine like pieces of
Speaker 3: chicken and like his like little fish feed the fish
Speaker 3: thing and trucks and he's having a little egg basket.
Speaker 3: It's really you know what, it's you really you as
Speaker 3: a parent, you recognize like you let things go, like
Speaker 3: there's just stuff where it's just like it's not even
Speaker 3: worth getting upset about, you know, like the carpet, like
Speaker 3: our couches and stuff like whatever, right, I mean it's
Speaker 3: not like we're like it's in our you know, our
Speaker 3: dining room where we like entertain people. This is where
Speaker 3: we live very much, our living room, and so like
Speaker 3: it's gonna look like that.
Speaker 4: That's why you see too what like you know, this
Speaker 4: was one thing that was really hard for Jesse when
Speaker 4: he integrated his household into mine as being a single mom,
Speaker 4: is that he was like, none of your stuff matches.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm. I'm like, well that's because I have a toddler.
Speaker 3: Mm hm, who's you want?
Speaker 4: Watch and wait because you'll see markers and nail polish
Speaker 4: and food and popsicles and spills, and so why would
Speaker 4: I have anything brand new matching like I got all
Speaker 4: family hand doowned stuff because it was like, or you
Speaker 4: have blankets over it because you can take the blanket
Speaker 4: off a lot easier than you can take the couch
Speaker 4: cushing off when they got cheeto.
Speaker 3: Fingers, right right, yeah, And I'm sure there's so much
Speaker 3: more to come. That's the exciting part.
Speaker 4: But I have.
Speaker 3: Realized, like I can't give them markers because our crayons
Speaker 3: even like because he's just he's not there yet, Like
Speaker 3: he doesn't even understand the whole we talked about and
Speaker 3: all that stuff we tell.
Speaker 4: One day when he gets your lipstick and runs away
Speaker 4: with it.
Speaker 3: And he loves my makeup bag, he already knows about
Speaker 3: taking tops off and stuff like that. Oh yeah, Mikayla.
Speaker 4: One time she was in her room and she's, you know,
Speaker 4: real quiet, and next thing you know, I go in
Speaker 4: there and she's got this lipstick and she's at the
Speaker 4: back of the wall, like, you know, making her own
Speaker 4: little measuring thing.
Speaker 3: Oh it's cute.
Speaker 4: Wait, how do you get mad? But at the same time.
Speaker 2: Right exactly, being a parent is really an amazing thing,
Speaker 2: and I know Martie and I we really appreciate and
Speaker 2: love every minute of It's difficult as it can be, but.
Speaker 1: We do have to wrap up the podcast. I did
Speaker 1: want to get in just one before the end of
Speaker 1: the year. What are you saying.
Speaker 4: I was the saying, you guys could still do a
Speaker 4: podcast even though I got to exit.
Speaker 1: Well, I think everybody has to exit.
Speaker 3: Oh true, we had to pick up little little boys
Speaker 3: from daycare and all that good stuff.
Speaker 1: I think I didn't give you the right. AI produced
Speaker 1: her notes.
Speaker 4: Next time a time limit really fast. I do want
Speaker 4: to say that I did Michigan Works had a AI
Speaker 4: in the workforce. I took that little zoom training on Tuesday,
Speaker 4: But I haven't even got to go back and like
Speaker 4: review the notes that I took from it or anything.
Speaker 4: But there was some interesting things on there.
Speaker 1: Cool.
Speaker 3: That sounds great.
Speaker 1: We'll have more updates.
Speaker 3: Well, we'll need to do a couple more of these
Speaker 3: to get really everybody updated on what's going on and
Speaker 3: with everybody. Yeah, because there's more exciting stuff that what's
Speaker 3: happening in.
Speaker 2: Each of our life.
Speaker 1: Yes, and yeah, I think there's some really cool thanks
Speaker 1: going say.
