1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: I made a decision, I'll pay Sunny Sun yet on

2
00:00:07,719 --> 00:00:09,359
I had a vision.

3
00:00:10,839 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 2: Nice.

4
00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 1: What's up everybody?

5
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 3: Welcome to a brand new year. For crying out loud,

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,440
we missed you, guys. It's a brand new twenty twenty six.

7
00:00:24,039 --> 00:00:27,359
I hope you guys are all feeling well. I missed you, Stephanie.

8
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,239
We haven't been in the studio for two weeks.

9
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:31,399
Speaker 2: Two whole weeks.

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: That's a long time for us.

11
00:00:33,719 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 2: Listen.

12
00:00:34,039 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: We've been doing this show fifteen years now.

13
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we rarely ever miss a week or an episode.

14
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 2: We really don't, and we we're only going to miss

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,719
one week. So we pre recorded two shows with LB right,

16
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,520
which is why you didn't get a Patreon that week.

17
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:57,200
That was like a bridge too far. Yeah, but this

18
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,200
was our first like vacation. And then one week into it,

19
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,959
you messaged me and you're like, okay, so we end. No, girl,

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,560
we have another week off, and You're like, what, it's

21
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:09,760
already been like a month.

22
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,719
Speaker 3: It seemed like it was forever because I was in

23
00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:15,480
Chicago still and I was coming home the night before

24
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,040
when we usually record on a Monday, and I was like, what,

25
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,959
what was What's going on for tomorrow? And Stephanie's like, girl,

26
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,159
we have another week off. I was like, oh, that's Rallelujah.

27
00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:30,280
I know yeah, because I was coming home late the

28
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,840
night before from Chicago, I would have been.

29
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, yeah. It's it feels like so much has happened.

30
00:01:38,519 --> 00:01:40,400
It feels like it's been a year.

31
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,079
Speaker 1: It has. It feels like a lot of life. Yeah.

32
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:52,959
Speaker 2: I trip, Yeah, I've not taken any trips, but the

33
00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:54,040
kids have been home.

34
00:01:56,519 --> 00:01:58,159
Speaker 3: And I have a gift for you that you're going

35
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:58,640
to open.

36
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:01,239
Speaker 2: Then I'm going to open on the error. Yes.

37
00:02:01,879 --> 00:02:04,159
Speaker 1: Should we talk about that? Want me to set that up?

38
00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: Yes?

39
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 3: So okay, there's this guy that we found years ago.

40
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,039
His name is Robert Phelps and you can look at

41
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:23,120
him on his Instagram. His his instagram is Robert pH

42
00:02:23,319 --> 00:02:29,120
e l P. Robert Phelp Phelps p h e l P.

43
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:35,360
S Art Robert Phelps Art on Instagram. And he is

44
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:42,840
this phenomenal gifted artist that paints mostly animals, people's pets.

45
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,159
And somebody had him pay Molly for us years ago

46
00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:49,919
and we loved it so much, which I still have

47
00:02:50,039 --> 00:02:53,639
that's up in our house. And then I had him

48
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:58,159
paid whenever somebody in the family's little doggie passed away,

49
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,240
I would have him paint a little art, you know,

50
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,879
for their dog, and it was really I liked it.

51
00:03:05,879 --> 00:03:08,039
It was a nice gift to give to people. And

52
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,400
then he also painted Phil out of Nowhere, like somebody

53
00:03:11,439 --> 00:03:14,719
had him do Phil, and he just sort of captures

54
00:03:14,759 --> 00:03:19,360
your your animal's soul. It's really hard to explain unless

55
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,680
you know your dog. Like you can look at the

56
00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:24,439
painting and go, oh, it's beautiful, but when you really

57
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,639
know your pet, you see he really has this gift

58
00:03:28,719 --> 00:03:31,199
of capturing their soul, like their eyes.

59
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,319
Speaker 1: You see it in his paintings.

60
00:03:33,759 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 3: So when people passed away, I was like, I really

61
00:03:36,919 --> 00:03:39,039
want him to paint a picture of people for you,

62
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,240
because we never give each other gifts and we don't

63
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,599
need to, but this was kind of important.

64
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,199
Speaker 2: I really wanted it was so sweet of you, and

65
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,879
I'm so excited and so should I?

66
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: Yeah?

67
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,319
Speaker 2: Should I open it? So? He so, So.

68
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:55,439
Speaker 1: I have it here wrapped.

69
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,319
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna videotape it and we'll put it on

70
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,120
our Facebook page, yeah, or Instagram.

71
00:04:02,199 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: So he sent me a card. Dear Stephanie. It was

72
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:08,680
an absolute joy painting such a beautiful girl. I hope

73
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,800
this painting helps keep her shining with you always warm

74
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:12,759
regards Robert.

75
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 3: Oh okay, and by the way, this has been sitting

76
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,839
in my house for a week.

77
00:04:18,319 --> 00:04:28,399
Speaker 2: Okay. Oh, I like that he sent like wrapping paper, Ellie.

Speaker 2: Okay.

80
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: So Stephanie sent me a couple of pictures of people

81
00:04:43,079 --> 00:04:44,519
that I sent along time.

82
00:04:47,560 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: Oh oh, oh my gosh.

83
00:04:59,319 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: Look at me. And I asked for Oh my god,

84
00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:12,160
so exact is it? But not but not like not

85
00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:14,839
like paint just painting the picture right, you're so.

86
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: Right, like he capt spirit, He captures it.

87
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,199
Speaker 2: Should I bring do you want to bring it closer?

88
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,879
Speaker 1: Okay? So we'll take I'll take better pictures and we'll

89
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:23,319
post it.

90
00:05:23,399 --> 00:05:27,959
Speaker 2: Okay. And I asked for her tags because the picture

91
00:05:28,439 --> 00:05:31,160
had really old tags and it wasn't the weren't the

92
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:34,279
her tag that she usually wears. So I asked if

93
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,040
it could be. So he had to go off of me,

94
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,399
just explaining like a pit like the tags, yes, and

95
00:05:40,439 --> 00:05:43,959
how you wanted it and did he yes, it's perfect.

96
00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: Ah, oh, I love it.

97
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 3: So you see what I mean, how he captures their

98
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,759
soul like it just you can like just like stare

99
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:54,160
at it.

100
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to put it in my office. I'm going

101
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,160

110
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,399
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. You know who else I want to

111
00:06:23,439 --> 00:06:26,399
think is a my GLP lady.

112
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: Ah, how's that going.

113
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:30,879
Speaker 2: I just want to say that I've kind of come

114
00:06:30,959 --> 00:06:34,759
full circle on the you know, I was really anxious

115
00:06:34,759 --> 00:06:38,920
about it and then and then I got some heat

116
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,920
a little bit when I was like, yeah, I've been

117
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,319
taking the GOLP and it's good. Oh. Then I was

118
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,959
feeling a little bit like I'd taken too much. I

119
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,639
do have to get used to it because when I

120
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,680
first was on it, as I said, I couldn't I

121
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,920
was like, I can't eat at all. But then I

122
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,160
I went down in the dose and I was basically

123
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,000
microdosing one MILLI you start at two point five, but

124
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:11,160
then I was doing one. But anyway, long story short,

125
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:14,519
I've adjusted out and now I'm at like almost two

126
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,879
and a half, almost at what most people start with.

127
00:07:17,439 --> 00:07:20,120
And it's pretty great. And I'm going to tell you

128
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:24,959
why it's the I can understand why I've heard that

129
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,879
people like Oprah have gotten sober using it, like even

130
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,319
though they just took it to lose weight. It does

131
00:07:31,399 --> 00:07:36,160
something to the sort of compulsive feeling that you want

132
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,839
to just overeat and that you can't get full. And

133
00:07:38,959 --> 00:07:41,319
it's like it's not just a physical thing. It doesn't

134
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:44,160
just make you feel It does also make you feel

135
00:07:44,199 --> 00:07:48,279
full quicker. It just changes a little bit of something

136
00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:50,680
in the way your brain works so that you don't

137
00:07:50,759 --> 00:07:55,319
feel like, oh my god, I can't get satisfied right right.

138
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,120
It really does work in a way that I haven't

139
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,800
felt like, I'm so much less compulsive about sugar, so.

140
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,079
Speaker 1: Like the sugar cratings are completely gone.

141
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,319
Speaker 2: Well I'm not going to say they're completely gone, that

142
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,920
would not be true, okay, but like I originally lost

143
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:16,040
some weight, but also you know how like, well you

144
00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:18,720
probably don't have this, this is like a me thing.

145
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,800
But in the past, always whenever I've lost weight, even

146
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,240
if I didn't have a lot of weight to lose.

147
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,959
But if I had some weight to lose and then

148
00:08:25,959 --> 00:08:30,120
I lost some weight, a compulsive feeling would kick in.

149
00:08:30,199 --> 00:08:32,399
It's very all or nothing. My brain is very all

150
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,080
or nothing. So it felt very much like, well, if

151
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,200
I lost some weight, then now I could be.

152
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:41,519
Speaker 1: Really skinny, right, you know, Yeah, I'm going to keep going.

153
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 2: And it's not if you're thinking like, oh, that's just anorexic.

154
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,240
It's not that. It's more like I have to be

155
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,159
working towards something. I've got to achieve this. I'm already

156
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,840
I'm having control, so now I want to stay in control,

157
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:58,120
and but I'm not having that this time. I'm like, Okay,

158
00:08:58,159 --> 00:09:01,360
I lost some weight. I fit back into my like cool,

159
00:09:02,039 --> 00:09:05,240
Like I'd like to keep the feeling going of not

160
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,600
feeling like thinking about food all the time. It really

161
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,399
does do the thing that they say reduces the food noise.

162
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,720
And our girl, my girl Karen, who I is in

163
00:09:18,759 --> 00:09:22,600
our Facebook group, has been helping a lot of our

164
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,919
fcol people wow. And she said that she will do

165
00:09:26,639 --> 00:09:29,600
fifteen percent off. She's not an advertiser on our show.

166
00:09:29,759 --> 00:09:32,720
I just a bunch of people were saying like, can

167
00:09:32,799 --> 00:09:37,120
I use your girl? Because some of the things that

168
00:09:37,279 --> 00:09:40,559
even things we advertise, which are great and I have

169
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,879
a friend who's using one of our advertisers, but it

170
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,639
is a little bit more pricey because you have to

171
00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:49,879
sometimes pay for months up front. You know, they get

172
00:09:49,919 --> 00:09:52,200
you in with an introductory price, but then you're going

173
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:54,919
to pay more. Listen, you get for that, you do

174
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,120
get ongoing care from doctors. But if you don't feel

175
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,399
like you need that, yeah, and you just want the

176
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,960
medication right, good instructions, and she sends you everything you need,

177
00:10:05,159 --> 00:10:08,159
it's it. Yeah, so you're just staying at that at

178
00:10:08,159 --> 00:10:11,240
that dose, you're not you feel like you don't need to.

179
00:10:11,519 --> 00:10:16,440
I've gotten a couple more vials of it, and but

180
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,639
I have been well, no, I did go up. So

181
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,440
I had originally gone from two to one, and then

182
00:10:21,519 --> 00:10:23,960
I've slowly climbed back up and now I'm back at

183
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,159
like a little over two. Okay, But and it's doing

184
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,840
the thing that it was doing before. Listen, some people

185
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,919
are on like fifteen, Wow, you can go way up.

186
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,519
She's but it's not like I'm It's not like you

187
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:37,440
know Heroin right, you need a lot?

188
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you.

189
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 2: Guys know what I mean. Like you know when you're

190
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,080
doing like, yeah, heroin and you're.

191
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,159
Speaker 1: Feel like you need more.

192
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I got to shoot him a lot more.

193
00:10:50,159 --> 00:10:53,159
Do I get the same high? God? Darn it? Well

194
00:10:53,159 --> 00:10:53,840
that's great.

195
00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 3: I like that that you now feeling like you can

196
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,519
fit into your jeans and feeling better.

197
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,759
Speaker 2: And yeah, it doesn't stop from wearing hugely baggy sweats

198
00:11:01,759 --> 00:11:05,120
every day, of course not. But I can see why

199
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,000
people like it for other compulsive things. I know people

200
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,039
who have used it to help quit smoking, for like

201
00:11:12,279 --> 00:11:13,120
it can help.

202
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.

203
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:18,759
Speaker 2: No, I'm not suggesting that you go to GLP. I'm

204
00:11:18,759 --> 00:11:21,200
just saying it's it's a cool side effect.

205
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: Yes, no, I've heard about that.

206
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 3: And I amn't going to have an appointment soon with

207
00:11:25,879 --> 00:11:30,519
my doctor knock around for my yearly checkup.

208
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 2: So I have one coming up, you do, yes, I

209
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:36,720
wonder if we have it the same day. I feel

210
00:11:36,759 --> 00:11:41,360
like my knock around appointment, I can't remember.

211
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: Off they may, I mean it's soon?

212
00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:44,639
Speaker 2: Is it soon? Yes?

213
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, mine's not for a while. Mine's for like a.

214
00:11:48,279 --> 00:11:51,000

00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, mine's from like in a month. Oh

216
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:55,440
I just made the appointment.

217
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so Thursday's actually really perfect because tomorrow I'm

218
00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:02,759
getting a tattoo.

219
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: You are yes, and what are you getting?

220
00:12:06,399 --> 00:12:09,399
Speaker 2: And where you're thinking. If you're thinking, oh, you're going

221
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,480
to get a tattoo of Pepo, you would be incorrect

222
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,639
not getting a tattoo of Pepo. I'm getting a tattoo.

223
00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:18,720
I think I said this before of the I want

224
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:20,759
the outline of the state of California.

225
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: That's cool on my forearm really like, oh, I'm by

226
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:25,679
your wrist.

227
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,759
Speaker 2: Like but like here right under your risk forearm. Yeah, yeah,

228
00:12:29,799 --> 00:12:33,639
like above my wrist, how big? See funny thing you

229
00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:36,440
should say that. So when I was with Sadie, I'm

230
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,919
going to the guy at the Honorable Society where Sadie

231
00:12:40,919 --> 00:12:44,320
got her big tattoo. And of course I don't know

232
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,279
with tattoos. I feel like a lot of people are

233
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,519
of the mind that bigger is better, but I'm not

234
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,879
of that mind. Now. Yeah, So he showed me three drawings.

235
00:12:51,879 --> 00:12:54,600
He was like, I made three designs for you, and

236
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,480
the smaller of the designs was still a little too

237
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,000
big for me. But then say I was like, yeah,

238
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,519
I think this, but like a little bit smaller than that.

239
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,360
And Sadie's like, what, no, that's that's so small. And

240
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,320
I was like, it's not that small, you know. He

241
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,559
don't want a giant I don't want to be I

242
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,440
don't want my arm to be like Caliver, right, just

243
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,519
want it to be like kind of something for me.

244
00:13:18,799 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that.

245
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 3: Somebody I know just got a tattoo of their their

246
00:13:23,279 --> 00:13:27,639
kids first initial on their arm, like right, kind of

247
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,679
like on the inside of their arm, near the back

248
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,200
of the by the elbow, on the opposite side of

249
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,200
the elbow. Okay, just a little, just a little like initial.

250
00:13:36,519 --> 00:13:40,279
But it's so small it looks like dirt. Oh that's

251
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:40,679
the thing.

252
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: And but but it is just an initial, it's not anything.

253
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, this would be a good couple inches.

254
00:13:46,879 --> 00:13:48,799
Speaker 1: Yeah or what see, that's the thing you want it.

255
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 3: You don't want it too little because then somebody's going

256
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:52,720
to be like, you got something on your arm?

257
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,639
Speaker 2: No, no, no, but I think the design, I think

258
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,480
the one that he drew was like three inches. It

259
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,360
was pretty big. I I don't want like a little

260
00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:04,039
one where you'd have to be close to it. It is, right,

261
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,639
but like okay, like that two inches big? Yeah, like

262
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,360
two and a half inches me. Yeah, I don't know.

263
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:17,039
That's great anyway. Doing that, John was annoyed.

264
00:14:18,279 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: Because well, John doesn't have any tattoos, does he?

265
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: No? No, No, he's a loss from Connecticut. He's there.

266
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:31,879
The man has no he has edge in his personality

267
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,279
and in his but he's not an edgy man. The

268
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,559
guy's been wearing listen, he was like a gap guy.

269
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,840
I think maybe J Crew. I got him into Lucky brand,

270
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,080
but that was years ago, and now Lucky is like

271
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:47,720
the official Dad brand.

272
00:14:47,919 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, like it's not like cool, right right, No, but.

273
00:14:52,919 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 2: He's been He wears the same jeans and the same

274
00:14:56,159 --> 00:15:00,399
like the same look as for like twenty something yours.

275
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a that's a dude. I had to do that, Sonny.

276
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 3: I had to update his wardrobe for Christmas because he

277
00:15:07,639 --> 00:15:10,799
was wearing the same Nike sweatpants, the kind that's tight

278
00:15:10,919 --> 00:15:14,039
around the ankle, and Natalian and I were like, dude,

279
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:16,960
that's not cool, Like you don't want to wear you know,

280
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,120
sweat You want sweatpants that are just lay flat around

281
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,320
the ankle, just a straight leg, not not bunches up

282
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,480
around the ankle. Yeah, so I got him some like

283
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,279
Alo sweatpants, not like these, right.

284
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: Or like what I'm but I got a pair. I

285
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,879
know what you're saying. I got a pair of sweats

286
00:15:34,919 --> 00:15:36,559
that are like just the straight leg.

287
00:15:36,679 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, the straight leg. That's what he needed. So I

288
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,679
got him a pair of those. Somebody gave him jeans

289
00:15:41,679 --> 00:15:45,759
for Christmas. He has not worn jeans since he was

290
00:15:45,799 --> 00:15:50,080
six years old. Never You've never seen sonnywear jeans.

291
00:15:50,159 --> 00:15:53,679

Speaker 3: And I was like, well, they're nice that you can

296
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,120
wear them, like if you get dressed up and you

297
00:16:05,159 --> 00:16:07,120
got to go out to a nice restaurant or whatever.

298
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:10,639
But he's like, yeah, other than that, probably never gonna

00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,519
shirt Okay, And then did you guys, do your seafood.

334
00:17:50,519 --> 00:17:53,039
Speaker 3: Oh my god, we went to Bob Chin's. We're not

335
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,559
going there anymore. First of all, I just only started

336
00:17:56,599 --> 00:17:58,599
going to Chicago in the last few years since this

337
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,279
the divorce. They have been going to Bobchin's for twenty

338
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,279
years with their other family that they get together. There's

339
00:18:05,519 --> 00:18:08,440
Wendy's friends get together with their kids. They come every

340
00:18:08,519 --> 00:18:13,079
Christmas Eve. Wendy, remember two years ago Wendy got sick,

341
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,480
yes from bobchin It was two years ago. Same thing

342
00:18:17,599 --> 00:18:21,759
happened again this year. So last year she didn't eat

343
00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:25,039
any shellfish. This time she ate one of those little

344
00:18:25,039 --> 00:18:28,759
mini crab claw leggy things she had, like one or

345
00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:29,319
two of them.

346
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: Woke up in the morning vomiting.

347
00:18:32,559 --> 00:18:36,519
Speaker 3: Diary everything I had to do the whole spread, got

348
00:18:36,599 --> 00:18:39,359
up early in the morning, did everything, like helped her

349
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,839
put I you know, she laid in bed, told me

350
00:18:41,839 --> 00:18:44,200
where to this time. She didn't even care what platters

351
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,839
I put them on. She's like, just do whatever you

352
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:51,599
want to do. And same thing happened again. So she's

353
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,039
alertic she is allergic. Yeah, Susanne, the same thing happened

354
00:18:55,039 --> 00:18:57,640
to Suzanne later in life, like all of a sudden,

355
00:18:57,759 --> 00:19:01,839
she can't have shellfish, Like the same thing, same symptoms,

356
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,000
same everything comes on a couple hours after you eat it,

357
00:19:05,559 --> 00:19:08,880
and so she's just like I thought, she was hoping

358
00:19:09,599 --> 00:19:13,119
that it was maybe she ate something bad that night, right,

359
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,400
But she stayed away from shellfish throughout the years. And

360
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,240
now she went there again and had a little bit

361
00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:22,359
of shellfish. Now she's allergic to it, I think, so

362
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,519
she can't have it. But it was pretty bad to

363
00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:28,880
wake up Christmas morning knowing that you got like two

364
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,920
other families coming over with their kids showing up at

365
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,559
like ten am with the big locks and bagels spread

366
00:19:35,599 --> 00:19:37,799
that needs to be put out and all the you

367
00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:41,039
know traditional stuff she makes, like upside down French toast

368
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,680
casserole thing that she makes, like you know, got to

369
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,519
put it in the oven and gotta do this, Gotta

370
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,079
defrost the breadth, got to cut up the tomatoes and

371
00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:53,240
the onions for the blocks, and so it was fine,

372
00:19:53,279 --> 00:19:56,160
but I like had a full day of putting everything

373
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,400
out and doing it all for her, which was which

374
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,359
was fine, but that sucks.

375
00:20:02,759 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it sucked for her. Yeah, it was pretty bad.

376
00:20:05,599 --> 00:20:08,759
Speaker 3: But she felt better as the day went on, and

377
00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:11,279
then so yeah, that we did our gift exchange, but

449
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:32,960
had this lingering cough on the way to the airport. Okay,

450
00:24:33,079 --> 00:24:34,960
I know that, I know you know this about me.

451
00:24:35,079 --> 00:24:38,759
I hate being in an uber, like I just want

452
00:24:38,759 --> 00:24:39,759
to say, hey, can you.

453
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: Just scoot over and let me drive? It drives me.

454
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,079
Speaker 3: I break out in hives now, especially if we have

455
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,279
a flight to catch. So Sonny and I were leaving

456
00:24:51,319 --> 00:24:54,960
to go to Chicago, you know, two days before Christmas

457
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,519
Eve or a day before, and all I kept hearing

458
00:24:58,599 --> 00:25:02,920
with the rain is there's traffic. Not the lax is packed.

459
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:07,519
Leave extra early. So we're set. I set up for

460
00:25:07,559 --> 00:25:10,119
the uber to show up at a certain time, let's

461
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:15,400
say ten am, and the uber lady doesn't show up

462
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,599
till like ten oh three. Okay, usually they get there early.

463
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,359
This she didn't show up till ten oh three. So

464
00:25:23,519 --> 00:25:26,440
then I'm like, okay, so she's she got here, let's go.

465
00:25:26,519 --> 00:25:29,000
So we get we get our stuff. Now I know

466
00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:31,480
that we're we have plenty of time, but we're also

467
00:25:31,839 --> 00:25:34,160
we're not cutting it close, but we're not leaving us

468
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,720
with a ton of time. So so I so I

469
00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:41,920
get outside and I said, my son's coming with his suitcases.

470
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:43,519
First of all, she doesn't get out of the car

471
00:25:43,759 --> 00:25:46,400
to help with the suitcase. Fine, even though my suitcase

472
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,640
is really heavy. Then she she does get out when

473
00:25:49,759 --> 00:25:52,599
Sonny comes with his bags, and she she says, is

474
00:25:52,599 --> 00:25:54,960
there a target that we can stop to on the way?

475
00:25:55,279 --> 00:25:58,559
Speaker 2: Wait? What on the way to lax.

476
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's dry having us to lax Is.

477
00:26:02,039 --> 00:26:03,839
Speaker 2: And then also I set it up.

478
00:26:04,039 --> 00:26:07,039
Speaker 3: She's three minutes late, which is kind of a big

479
00:26:07,079 --> 00:26:10,319
deal when you're you know, like we gotta goah and

480
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:11,759
we're taking us.

481
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,519
Speaker 2: To a fucking flight and it's raining.

482
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 3: And it's like in lax Is supposedly like packed right now,

483
00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:22,200
and is there a target we can stop to? And

484
00:26:22,279 --> 00:26:25,720
I was like, my stomach drop. I go why she

485
00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:28,480
said I have to use the restroom really bad. I

486
00:26:28,519 --> 00:26:31,359
was like, bitch, go in my house, like you can

487
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,799
use my list, go go. She takes her sweet time,

488
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,839
she doesn't have an urgency in her step. She goes

489
00:26:38,839 --> 00:26:41,759
into my house. She's in there for a couple minutes.

490
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,559
I'm like, oh my god, this is a nightmare. Then

491
00:26:45,599 --> 00:26:46,799
we get back into the car.

492
00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:47,319
Speaker 2: I know.

493
00:26:48,839 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 3: It was like I was texting Wendy, like I hope

494
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,839
we don't miss our flight, you know, because she was

495
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,920
driving so slow. She kept breaking when you didn't need

496
00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:02,480
to break. And I'm not, like, I know, I'm a

497
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,880
like fast driver, aggressive driver.

498
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that she likes.

499
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: Soon as the highway opened up, she could have like, okay,

500
00:27:10,759 --> 00:27:12,480
let's pick it up to the speed limit. No, she

501
00:27:12,559 --> 00:27:15,920
went ten ten miles an hour under the speed limit

502
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,079
and kept breaking for no. You know those people that

503
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,279
break for no reason, They just keep hitting the brake,

504
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,119
Like why are you breaking? Is this your first time

505
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,960
driving it? I broke out in a sweat. It was

506
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,359
one of the worst experiences ever. On the way to Lax, yeah, like,

507
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,400
can we stop at Target? That's how my vacation started.

508
00:27:35,559 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 2: That's crazy, crazy, like looney.

509
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: Tune, looney tunes.

510
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,799
Speaker 3: But then I made a note of this on the

511
00:27:42,839 --> 00:27:46,759
way back from Chicago and we were at Chicago Sunday night.

512
00:27:46,799 --> 00:27:50,319
We go through security and you know, like you're they

513
00:27:50,519 --> 00:27:53,519
when you go into the security, they have you like

514
00:27:53,599 --> 00:27:56,039
they go okay, put your hands over your head and

515
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,559
you know, hold still, don't move. The thing slides around

516
00:27:59,599 --> 00:28:02,160
your body and then they go okay, step out.

517
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: So I did that.

518
00:28:03,519 --> 00:28:05,319
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened came over me, but I

519
00:28:05,319 --> 00:28:08,200
put my arms down and then the lady's like, okay,

520
00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:10,440
step out, and I stepped out, and as I stepped out,

521
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,319
I did the worm like that with my hands. I

522
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,680
was like and I did a little like thing with

523
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,440
my feet, like like did like a little robot.

524
00:28:20,319 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: And the lady was like, oh hey, and she's like, wait.

525
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 2: You gotta do it with me.

526
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: And then she grabbed my hand and we did the

527
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,160
like the wave thring like through our arms and she's like,

528
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,759
you go with your bad self.

529
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,599
Speaker 2: I go, Sonny, did you just see that? Did you

530
00:28:36,599 --> 00:28:38,960
see that? He's like, y oh my god, so embarrassed.

531
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,799
He's like, yeah, I saw it. Oh my god, that's amazing.

532
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know why, but I was like.

533
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,599
Speaker 2: Somebody had filmed that, it would have gone viral. I know,

534
00:28:50,319 --> 00:28:51,880
moment with the airport security.

535
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was great.

536
00:28:53,559 --> 00:28:56,519
Speaker 2: Like who says the airportsa has no sense of human right?

537
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,640
I know, I couldn't believe it.

538
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 3: I just I don't know, like I didn't expect her

539
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:01,920
to participate.

540
00:29:02,839 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 2: Not so cute. Yeah, oh my god, I was. This

541
00:29:08,559 --> 00:29:11,759
is going to sound totally off topic, but you're going

542
00:29:11,839 --> 00:29:14,000
to understand how I made the connection in my brain.

543
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:16,960
But I was at the gym the other day and

544
00:29:17,119 --> 00:29:22,240

546
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,880
in the gym, and I'll never understand. I'll never really

547
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,640
understand why. Maybe it's my lifestyle, but why do you

548
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,400
need to be taking off all your clothes at the gym?

549
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,480

00:30:19,079 --> 00:30:23,000
day somebody took it to oh oh, like a way more.

565
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,920
I was like, wow, is this person just seeking attention

or they're just very free? But they were completely naked

567
00:30:31,279 --> 00:30:34,960
and then they were in front of the mirror, posing

568
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:39,880
and taking pictures of themselves. Oh my god, like for

569

over her shoulder and herself full bush like everything. I mean,

00:31:04,839 --> 00:31:07,880
I tried not to look like I it was quick, right,

577
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,720
and then I looked away, but then I was like, wow,

578
00:31:10,799 --> 00:31:16,079
what is she? I don't get it.

579
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,519
Speaker 1: I don't I don't get it, but I mean to

580
00:31:19,599 --> 00:31:20,279
each his own.

581
00:31:20,519 --> 00:31:23,559
Speaker 2: I guess, I guess if you're just feeling good, you're

582
00:31:23,599 --> 00:31:29,720

583
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 3: Oh god, shit, that bad that you can't have yourself

584
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,880
is a day. Right, Oh my god, we see you

585
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,000
know that whole thing by heart.

586
00:31:37,279 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: We used to, I know. So okay, I have like

587
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,200
so many things, yeaky, all right. First of all, I

588
00:31:46,279 --> 00:31:50,200
had my Honka party. So this was after, this was

589
00:31:50,319 --> 00:31:53,000
pre Christmas, but there was a Honka party. I want

590
00:31:53,039 --> 00:31:55,000
to say. It was like on the twenty first at

591
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,200
my friend's house. And remember how much I love like

592
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,119
a white elephant gift exchange and to remember, well, I

593
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,720
don't know if you remember, but I was going to

594
00:32:03,759 --> 00:32:08,279
bring back my Yiddish refrigerator magnets that I actually that

595
00:32:08,319 --> 00:32:12,200
I won. So I won them the last last year

596
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,920
ago and it was horrible and I had an early number.

597
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,720
So I picked them and then nobody would steal them

598
00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:21,519
from me, right, So I was like going to get revenge, right,

599
00:32:21,839 --> 00:32:24,880
So I wrapped those, but I tricked people because I

600
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,119
put them in like a gift bag, like I didn't

601
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,640
just wrap it like a little square.

602
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:29,079
Speaker 1: Yeah.

603
00:32:29,279 --> 00:32:31,519
Speaker 2: I was paranoid that people would not pick it. So

604
00:32:31,559 --> 00:32:34,240
I made it seem like really like something cool. Yes,

605
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,519
And I put it in a bag with like really

606
00:32:36,519 --> 00:32:40,559
made it look nice with tissue paper. Yeah. And sadly

607
00:32:41,839 --> 00:32:44,799
a girl who's only like sixteen, a sixteen year old

608
00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:48,079
girl got it, and I was one of the perpetrators,

609
00:32:49,079 --> 00:32:54,960
like would get it back, you know, No, Luckily a

610
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,559
family friend of hers. The mom felt bad for her

611
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,480
and like stole it from her at one point. Oh yeah,

612
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,440
but I we actually our family did kind of well

613
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:09,160

Speaker 1: Yeah.

617
00:33:18,599 --> 00:33:23,119
Speaker 2: And then oh of course, okay, so I've been so

618
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:24,119

630
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,119

but you're going to be leaving. It sounds like you're

636
00:34:22,039 --> 00:34:25,400

648
00:35:03,559 --> 00:35:05,840

00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,599
out in Woodland Hills and she was working at Calbasas.

650
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,639
And then Elby is like when she gets done with work,

651
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,760
is like, oh, hey, my friend, that I only have

652

one day that I can meet her, which was not

653
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,599
true by the way. She ended up seeing her multiple

654
00:35:22,599 --> 00:35:24,639
other times. She was like, this is the time that

655
00:35:24,679 --> 00:35:26,000
I can see her, So I'm going to go have

656
00:35:26,079 --> 00:35:28,760
a late lunch with her as soon as my shift ends.

657
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,440
I'm like, okay, well, what you mean by a late

658
00:35:32,519 --> 00:35:35,800
lunch is dinner because first, yeah, so she didn't show up.

659
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,000
She showed up at like a quarter to eight. I

660
00:35:38,079 --> 00:35:41,639
got there right before the gift exchange, which with lots

661
00:35:41,639 --> 00:35:44,280
of texts from me going hey, are you still coming,

662
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,559
like you're eleven yet?

663
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, but so what did you get?

664
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,159
Speaker 2: So I got like, I don't remember, I got a

665
00:35:55,199 --> 00:35:57,840
gift card. I got a Raising Caine's gift card. By

666
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,079
the way, I don't understand the fuss about raising. I

667
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:02,800
don't get it either. These kids love it. They love

668
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,719
raisin cakes. Do a Starbucks gift card. Yeah, I got

669
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,119
it right. They're getting some fried chicken with like hot sauce.

670
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 3: I know, I know, I know the kids love it,

671
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,599
kids love the raisin cane. Yeah, I just know about

672
00:36:15,639 --> 00:36:19,559
it because they would always want and after volleyball gentlemen.

673
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm trying to think. I feel like so much

674
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,480
has happened while we were on break, but it was

675
00:36:26,519 --> 00:36:30,360
only two weeks. Had I gone to the jazz concert

676
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:39,039
at the kids No? Okay? Oh, also so my kids,

677
00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:43,239
man Xander burns himself out doing being involved in all

678
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:47,360
the things. But they're doing SpongeBob the musical at the

679
00:36:47,599 --> 00:36:49,960
at the kids' school. Oh yeah, I think it's Xander.

680
00:36:50,039 --> 00:36:53,760
Did I tell you he got Patrick? No? Yeah, he's

681
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,480
one of he's like one of the starring roles. Right.

682
00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,920
He kept saying, he's like, yeah, I am not gonna

683
00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:01,599
get I'm not going to get a big part I

684
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:03,960
want to get. And it was I don't know the parts,

685
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,800
but like mister Crabs. Yeah yeah, and he's like that

686
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,199
part seems really kind of fun to me, and that's

687
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,480
what I'll probably I'm hoping to get that part. And

688
00:37:13,519 --> 00:37:15,480
I was like, what about like a bigger role? You

689
00:37:15,519 --> 00:37:17,159
know and he's like, oh no, I can't even hit

690
00:37:17,199 --> 00:37:19,119
those notes, like they're not going to give me a

691
00:37:19,119 --> 00:37:22,599
bigger part. And then I was saying to Sadie, was like, yeah,

692
00:37:22,679 --> 00:37:24,679
Xander's going to get Patrick and I was like he

693
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,960
didn't know, he doesn't think he is, and she's like, mom,

694
00:37:27,679 --> 00:37:31,960
he is, trust me on this. Wow, that's big. She's

695
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,960
like he loves to like play it down like even

696
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,480
though like you're going to get it, and then sure

697
00:37:38,559 --> 00:37:39,079
enough he did.

698
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 1: So now they have to rehearse and that's coming.

699
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 2: It's constant rehearsals makes my life crazy because Sadie. So,

700
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,840
Sadie got a really small part and was like, fuck this,

701
00:37:52,039 --> 00:37:55,679
I'm not being in the play, which I kind of get.

702
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like.

703
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,519
Speaker 2: I don't want to go to rehearsals every day of

704
00:37:59,559 --> 00:38:02,119
my life and then have to be through go through

705
00:38:02,159 --> 00:38:07,639
tech week to have this like no lines, oh en symbol.

706
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,559
Speaker 1: She was like nah, no, no bright and.

707
00:38:12,039 --> 00:38:14,679
Speaker 2: So she's not in it. So Xander is to stay

708
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,840
after school like three four times a week and she's

709
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,360
not going to be able to drive him home. I

710
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,400
was just gonna say, so how does he get home?

711
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:23,360
You have to go back and you're gonna have to

712
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,719
go get him. Yeah, But like I tea, I'm teaching now,

713
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,119
I'm going into like my season, three nights a week,

714
00:38:29,159 --> 00:38:32,239
I'm teaching. So I'm like, John, that's.

715
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,519
Speaker 1: My name's Paul, that's y'all.

716
00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:39,760
Speaker 2: He's like, I got it. Wow, look good for him. Yeah,

717
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,800
I'll please to go get her. So let's see what

718
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:50,960
else he is. There's right now, there's still stragglers for

719
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,199
the college apps. There's still the private colleges they can

720
00:38:54,239 --> 00:39:00,159
still do applications. And I don't know he's he he's

721
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,480
really only applied to San Diego State, which he got into,

722
00:39:03,519 --> 00:39:07,320
which I told you, I think, right.

723
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,079
Speaker 1: I don't think you told us that that he got into.

724
00:39:10,519 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 2: Okay, So he got into SDSU, which is a great school,

725
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,360
and I think he feels like, Okay, we're good because

726
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,559
it's funny. Elbe did not get in there. So they

727
00:39:23,599 --> 00:39:28,719
do some early admissions right for kind of top students,

728
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,199
and he got early admission and LB did not get

729
00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:36,119
early admission and then also got denied even the later admission.

730
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,679
So I was really, I really have low expectations for

731
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:44,159
what's EPP and with Xander, but he got into that school.

732
00:39:45,159 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: So was he happy.

733
00:39:47,039 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 2: He was very happy. He hasn't seen it yet, but yeah,

734
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,840
he was really happy. But I think it's he already

735
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,760
is kind of low motivation on the apps, and I

736
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,679
think this made it even more. Like the other day,

737
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,519
I'm like, aren't there a few more schools that you

738
00:40:03,559 --> 00:40:06,000
wanted to apply to? And he's like, yeah, I gotta

739
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,559
get on that because the drop dead deadline is in

740
00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:12,679
like ten days, right. It seems like a few days ago, right, Wow,

741
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,360
I haven't heard anything about it since.

742
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: Really, well, maybe he's just gonna stick with San Diego.

743
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, or I don't or I don't know, but I'm trying.

744
00:40:24,159 --> 00:40:28,159
I'm really trying to not make it make me crazy

745
00:40:28,199 --> 00:40:28,519
this year.

746
00:40:28,639 --> 00:40:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good.

747
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:29,679
Speaker 2: I don't.

748
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen a difference with you.

749
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 3: I feel like this time, I feel like you were

750
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,039
so shell shocked from what happened with Elbie and all

751
00:40:39,079 --> 00:40:43,280
her applying and getting not even except it's so crazy,

752
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,320
you know. So I feel like you've now like kind

753
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:50,000
of been a little more like, all right, we'll just

754
00:40:50,039 --> 00:40:51,519
see where the chips.

755
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 2: It's so incredibly disappointing when your kids, you know, work

756
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,760
really hard. There's a lot of pressure on these kids

757
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,719
to for their college applications. The thing is too I

758
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,280
think a lot of people know this, but it's hard

759
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,400
to really grasp it. Your kids can work so hard

760
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,320
on their applications and we, you know, really drive home

761
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,800
the importance of a great essay, and we hire these

762
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:21,880
outside counselors and then you know how long they spend

763
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:26,159
reading these applications, like ninety seconds, like skimmed. You know.

764
00:41:26,559 --> 00:41:28,360
I think they look at the grades, and if the

765
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,159
grades are good enough, they don't I've read this in

766
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,000
several sources. They really don't look at the extracurricular activities

767
00:41:36,079 --> 00:41:39,920
or any extras on the applications or even the essays

768
00:41:40,559 --> 00:41:43,840
until they intil a different round. So like they look

769
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,920
at the grades, they go, okay, moving, we'll move that

770
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:52,400
one on. They don't get more than like a cursory glance, right.

771
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:57,840
So part of me was just like all of the

772
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:02,119
power struggles and the aggravation with Elbe and then to

773
00:42:02,199 --> 00:42:06,639
have her be so sad, yeah, and have a shitty

774
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,840
year at you know, Pierce, but then she got into

775
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,239
where she wanted to go. And also I don't know, Okay,

776
00:42:14,679 --> 00:42:19,159
I'm feeling a little bit like Elbe is going to

777
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:25,239
graduate college this year with a sociology degree. And part

778
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,480
of me is like, Okay, it's great that she's going

779
00:42:28,559 --> 00:42:31,039
to be a college graduate. I just did air quotes.

780
00:42:31,119 --> 00:42:34,679
But like, a lot of what gets you a career

781
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,599
in the world is who you know, how curious you are,

782
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,880
how persistent you are, how open you are to doing

783
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,920
a lot of things. I don't think she's feeling a

784
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,480
little bit jaded about the whole paying for college for

785
00:42:47,519 --> 00:42:53,599
four years, right, yeah, for what it's just I mean,

786
00:42:55,159 --> 00:42:57,719
and elbe part of it is also because Elbie has

787
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,559
been telling me just and I might talk about this

788
00:43:01,599 --> 00:43:04,800
on Patreon, but about how kind of burned out by

789
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:09,679
school she is, Oh really yeah, just by the act

790
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,559
of like studying and finals and midterms and like, and

791
00:43:13,599 --> 00:43:15,719
she's having a little bit of like, I mean, my

792
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:19,199
classes are interesting, but also kind of who cares? And

793
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,239
I was like, yeah, because you're not. There's not this

794
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,760
immediate like, oh as soon as I graduate, I can

795
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,679
finally be a sociologist. Right now, you're just getting an

796
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:34,039
education for the sake of right having an education? Yea?

797
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,320
Is it not going to have much to do with

798
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,719
what she does for a living.

799
00:43:37,679 --> 00:43:39,519
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I do ideal.

800
00:43:39,639 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 3: But also though doesn't she make connections and you know,

801
00:43:43,679 --> 00:43:47,199
there is a lot of that like yes, going to school, yes.

802
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,599
Speaker 2: But what does that have to do with like the

803
00:43:49,679 --> 00:43:51,559
subject that she's studying in college?

804
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:52,159
Speaker 1: Right?

805
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 2: Right? So then you're like, okay, she She's like, don't

806
00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,519
get me wrong, I love college, but it's a she's

807
00:44:00,559 --> 00:44:03,679
feeling a lack of motivation. And also then once she

808
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,480
graduates college, she's going to have to like figure out

809
00:44:06,519 --> 00:44:08,519
what the hell she wants to do and how to

810
00:44:08,559 --> 00:44:10,199
get a job, you know what I mean. It's not

811
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,880
like you graduate UCLA and there's some like welcoming to

812
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:18,079
the right committee careers. Yes, hey, you graduated UCLA. What

813
00:44:18,119 --> 00:44:19,760
do you want to do? Yeah, we'll figure it out

814
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,920
for you, like right career day. Yeah, now I get it.

815
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:24,480
I get it.

816
00:44:24,559 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 3: Then what I think a lot of kids though, after college,

817
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:32,440
are thinking then, now what kind of thing? Because yeah,

818
00:44:32,639 --> 00:44:35,079
like that doesn't mean automatically you're just going to go

819
00:44:35,159 --> 00:44:39,079
off into the workforce. But so it is also like

820
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,840
is it necessary if you want to do what you

821
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,079
want to do, Like Sunny wants to do sports broadcasting,

822
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,559
is it necessary for him to go to college for that?

823
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 2: You know, for me.

824
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 3: I wanted him to live on his own, have this

825
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,239
college experience, you know, I'd like for him to get

826
00:44:56,280 --> 00:45:00,639
an education graduate college. Same thing with Natalia, but both

827
00:45:00,679 --> 00:45:04,079
of them, like, you know, whatever they want to do,

828
00:45:04,119 --> 00:45:08,239
it's probably going to be using connections with between their

829
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:13,639
parents and our connections. Probably probably it's what it's going

830
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:14,519
to boil down to.

831
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, you're probably right. I mean, they can

832
00:45:20,039 --> 00:45:23,800
work really hard, but yeah, that's partially why I think.

833
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:28,360
That's partially why I'm getting a tiny bit jaded about it.

834
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,800
And now I'm not feeling like, oh my god, Xander's

835
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,000
got to get into a great school, because part of

836
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,840
me is like, and and then what right, then we

837
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,400
take out loans for four years of his education to

838
00:45:39,639 --> 00:45:44,519
go fuck around at school when like he so, I'm

839
00:45:44,639 --> 00:45:48,119
just not going to be that sad if he decides, hey,

840
00:45:48,159 --> 00:45:51,800
maybe I'll just do Piers for you, right or two years?

841
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,559
And do I know I've talked about this before, but

842
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,719
I'm just saying, like I really am feeling like, what's

843
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,039
the point of me being like, come on, Xander, you

844
00:46:00,079 --> 00:46:02,400
got to do those college apps? Because like, do I

845
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,840
really want him to go to Chapman not really expensive?

846
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 1: And like for what same thing.

847
00:46:09,199 --> 00:46:12,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, and even some of these programs where he would

848
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:17,239
be very interested in majoring in music. I'm like, did

849
00:46:17,519 --> 00:46:20,599
I think I told you that? I think I told

850
00:46:20,639 --> 00:46:23,880
you this that I ran into when he did his

851
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,639
big performance, which we might not have talked since then.

852
00:46:27,679 --> 00:46:30,239
They're a big concert, the big music show that I

853
00:46:30,679 --> 00:46:32,960
run the thing. Yeah, I did tell you this because

854
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,679
I told you about giving Anna the money that everybody

855
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,920
raised for her. Yes, yeah, But did I tell you

856
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,840
about the music teacher with me saying that Xander got

857
00:46:42,599 --> 00:46:45,760
applied to Santa Cruz for the music program and his

858
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:50,239
music teacher was like, h really his music teacher went

859
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,079
to Santa Cruz and majored in music and he's an

860
00:46:53,119 --> 00:46:56,320
amazing musician, and he was like, let me talk to

861
00:46:56,360 --> 00:47:01,960
him before that. I was like, He's like, I don't know,

862
00:47:03,119 --> 00:47:06,760
because hey, if he wants to be a musician, he's like,

863
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:11,519
he'd probably be better off gigging around here. Yeah, Like it's

864
00:47:11,559 --> 00:47:16,599
not a great like music scene. And also, I even

865
00:47:16,679 --> 00:47:18,519
though I was in the music program, I had to

866
00:47:18,559 --> 00:47:23,280
take like guitar stuff at the local community college because

867
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,840
the music program it's very sort of classical. It's kind

868
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,519
of old school. Yes, and he's like, I don't know

869
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,480
if it's for him right right, It's like, that's okay,

870
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:38,880
Well it's a good thing you talk to him. Yeah. Yeah,

871
00:47:39,079 --> 00:47:43,320
it's tough, I know, but they're so close to it.

872
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:44,920
I mean, this year, your kids are going to be

873
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,119
graduating high school. Your daughter's gonna be graduating college. Like,

874
00:47:50,079 --> 00:47:52,360
then what and we still have a podcast? Then what

875
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,639
for our podcast? And what for our podcast? No? Same

876
00:47:56,679 --> 00:48:00,000
thing about life with grown kids?

877
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 1: Don't ask him, right exactly?

878
00:48:03,079 --> 00:48:05,559
Speaker 2: Speaking of that, should we say, hello, I've got so

879
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:10,760
much for Friday. Okay, I have shows, do you Okay,

880
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,400

00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,519
and Friday. Yes, I am obsessed with this TV show

882
00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:18,719
called I Am a Killer.

883
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 1: I started watching it because you told me.

00:48:21,679 --> 00:48:27,079
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's so good. It's really it's everything
