Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
Speaker 1: demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: We were talking earlier about about in laws and whether
Speaker 2: or not you get along with your in laws.
Speaker 3: Hi, guys, my brother in law is a piece of work.
Speaker 3: He's just like Gary. He's insecure. He's a no at all.
Speaker 3: He's got an ego, can't stand to be told when
Speaker 3: he's wrong. He's just a complete lame.
Speaker 4: Bye, what did you do today?
Speaker 5: A complete lame?
Speaker 1: I remember his voice. He doesn't like us, but yet
Speaker 1: contributes often, consistent, consistently. It is time for swamp watch.
Speaker 5: Politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar. And
Speaker 5: when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing that lollipops. Here
Speaker 5: we got.
Speaker 6: The real problem is that our leaders are done.
Speaker 4: The other side never quits, so.
Speaker 5: I'm not going anywhere.
Speaker 6: So now you train the.
Speaker 5: Swat, I can imagine what can and be unburdened by
Speaker 5: what has been. You know, Americans have always been going
Speaker 5: at president. They're not stupid.
Speaker 2: A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 5: Why have the people voting for you were not swamp Watch.
Speaker 5: They're all counterad.
Speaker 1: Are you living with foot pain? Have you been diagnosed
Speaker 1: with plant or fasci iis Visit the Good Feet Store
Speaker 1: learn how you can find relief without shot, surgeries or medications.
Speaker 4: Swamp Watch brought to you by the Good Feet Store.
Speaker 2: There is mounting pressure here and abroad to have some
Speaker 2: sort of a decision from President Trump about what he's
Speaker 2: going to do with Iran, and as of just a
Speaker 2: short time ago, Caroline Levitt, the White House Press Secretary,
Speaker 2: read a statement from the President.
Speaker 7: I have a message directly from the President, and I quote,
Speaker 7: based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of
Speaker 7: negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran
Speaker 7: in the near future. I will make my decision whether
Speaker 7: or not to go within the next next two weeks.
Speaker 5: There you go, within two weeks.
Speaker 2: We've seen that window before, the window of ultimatum, of
Speaker 2: ultimate ultimatum to use the president's own term, So we
Speaker 2: don't know what the plan is. He did have yet
Speaker 2: another meeting with the National Security Council in terms of
Speaker 2: the briefing of what's going on, and it's only getting
Speaker 2: hotter between Iran and Israel. Israel struck a couple of
Speaker 2: Iran's nuclear facilities again, and Iran struck in Israeli hospital,
Speaker 2: among other things, and hurt about two hundred plus people
Speaker 2: in the in Beersheba is where that hospital was, in
Speaker 2: the southern part of Israel.
Speaker 1: It's written up saying the president hasn't made up his mind.
Speaker 1: I believe the president has made up his mind. What
Speaker 1: do you think. I think this is a president that
Speaker 1: would have a very hard time resisting sending in the
Speaker 1: B two with that massive bomb that only we have
Speaker 1: to bust up that nuclear bunker in Iran.
Speaker 2: Well, he may have made this decision a long time ago.
Speaker 2: There's something going on between he and Tulca Gabbard right
Speaker 2: now as well. She's the Director of National Intelligence and
Speaker 2: testified before Congress just a short time ago that according
Speaker 2: to the intelligence community, Iran doesn't have a nuclear capability
Speaker 2: and that the Ayatola has not given them the green
Speaker 2: light to you.
Speaker 8: IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a
Speaker 8: nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Kameni has not authorized the
Speaker 8: nuclear weapons program that he suspended in two thousand and three.
Speaker 1: Now, but she's a Russia for lack of a better term.
Speaker 1: She likes Russia, she has ties to Russia. It's well documented.
Speaker 1: Russia doesn't want the United States to get involved with
Speaker 1: Iran directly like this.
Speaker 5: But so she's you're saying she's lying.
Speaker 4: I don't know, she's spinning it.
Speaker 1: She's certainly spinning it to create some sort of feeling
Speaker 1: that Iran doesn't have what everybody fears.
Speaker 2: Well, but this brings up an issue that came up
Speaker 2: during the first Trump administration, and who's he then getting
Speaker 2: his intelligence from? If she's the driver of se Gabbard,
Speaker 2: if she's in charge of seventeen intelligence agencies and is
Speaker 2: the mouthpiece for them to the president, who's he getting
Speaker 2: his information from?
Speaker 5: Because he says he doesn't care what she says.
Speaker 1: Of course he doesn't. He believes that they are going
Speaker 1: there is a gift to Putin. She's there to keep
Speaker 1: things nice and copasetic with Putin and Trump. She's there
Speaker 1: to be a mouthpiece for Russia. There's just there's no
Speaker 1: way that she is true to her title.
Speaker 2: But if this, if this plays out this way, if
Speaker 2: this continues to go down the road of her saying
Speaker 2: that there is no nuclear program in Iran and him
Speaker 2: saying there is she's not going to last in that job.
Speaker 1: If there was no program in Iran, then everyone is
Speaker 1: just off their ass. All the intelligence that we have
Speaker 1: not named Tulsi Gabbard is wrong.
Speaker 4: Get out of here. I mean not you.
Speaker 1: Wow, but I think she's nutcase. Do you have another
Speaker 1: ic coffee today or something I did? I did, I
Speaker 1: made it at home.
Speaker 2: Did you see the ongoing speaking of the fracturing of
Speaker 2: political parties going after I'm asking, I'm asked, Sorry, Tucker Carlson,
Speaker 2: going after Ted Cruz and vice versa.
Speaker 1: I missed it thinking about your allegation and the Prime
Speaker 1: Minister of Israel's allegation that.
Speaker 6: Killing terrorists is a good thing. Killing people are trying
Speaker 6: to murder Americans is a good thing because if you're
Speaker 6: America first, you want to protect Americans. So taking out
Speaker 6: killing O'samovan Laden was a fantastic.
Speaker 5: But you don't believe that they're trying to murder Trump?
Speaker 5: Or yes, yes, but why aren't you calling for military
Speaker 5: action against Tehran right now?
Speaker 6: Because they're not very effective in terms of hit men.
Speaker 6: Their hitmen are not very effective.
Speaker 1: I do think this was one of the most contentious
Speaker 1: interviews I've seen between two Republicans in name or at
Speaker 1: least the voting registration in a very long time.
Speaker 2: Tucker Carlson also asked Ted Cruz do you know how
Speaker 2: many people live in Iran? And Ted Cruz is like,
Speaker 2: I have no idea, And then Tucker Carlson, very smugly
Speaker 2: and calmly ninety two million.
Speaker 4: Like that's a gotcha moment.
Speaker 2: Well, because he says, you want to do away with
Speaker 2: the Iranian country, but don't have an idea of how
Speaker 2: many people could potentially be killed with it, And Ted.
Speaker 5: Cruse like, now, I'm not trying to kill the country.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get rid of the awful politicians and
Speaker 2: leaders that have turned that country into an absolute toilet bowl.
Speaker 5: It was, it was very well.
Speaker 1: Where is Tucker Carlson these days on Trump and everything
Speaker 1: that's going on.
Speaker 4: I haven't paid attention.
Speaker 5: They do not agree?
Speaker 4: They do, that's for sure? Is that because he is like, why.
Speaker 5: Listen the whole thing about Telsea Gabberby.
Speaker 4: Is it an America first type thing?
Speaker 5: Or well?
Speaker 2: Yeah, like if the President campaigned on keeping us out
Speaker 2: of getting out of and keeping us out of foreign wars,
Speaker 2: this would go against that promise right?
Speaker 4: Is he a Russia apologist?
Speaker 1: He has been very cozy with Vladimir poop Okay, so
Speaker 1: he and Tulsi are all in bed with Putin. I
Speaker 1: don't know about Tulsi, but Tucker has definitely been a
Speaker 1: little bit more of a soft shoe with Vladimir Putin
Speaker 1: than others have.
Speaker 5: A soft shoe soft shoes. Yeah, he's a good buffer shoes,
Speaker 5: a good buffer.
Speaker 4: What does that even mean? Soft shoe?
Speaker 5: I'm wearing soft shoes right now, are you? Yeah? Those
Speaker 5: aren't just rubber.
Speaker 4: You really phoned it in for a Thursday. Are you
Speaker 4: dealing with something?
Speaker 5: I'm wearing a belt? All right?
Speaker 4: What are we doing? How to say no at work?
Speaker 4: There was an article on the Wall Street No that
Speaker 4: was good.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: According to Multiple Sports, the Dodgers are expected to announce
Speaker 2: today some sort of a sweeping initiative to assist migrant
Speaker 2: communities impacted by the recent federal immigration enforcements that have
Speaker 2: been taking place. In fact, there are camera TV cameras
Speaker 2: that are placed outside Dodger Stadium covering this story that
Speaker 2: have apparently also captured some ice agents or homeland security
Speaker 2: investigators in the parking lot at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1: There is a reason why office space has such a
Speaker 1: cult following, and it's because, if you've seen the Major
Speaker 1: Emotion Picture, the character, the lead character in it, just
Speaker 1: decides he doesn't want.
Speaker 4: To do stuff at work anymore. He's he's a guy,
Speaker 4: he's a droll.
Speaker 1: He works for a data company, and it's all very
Speaker 1: you know, exactly what you would expect from somebody who
Speaker 1: inputs data nine to five kind of thing. He's got
Speaker 1: three different bosses, they ask for the same thing. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of redundancy, and he's like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm just not going to do it anymore. And when
Speaker 1: you're watching the movie, you feel almost like a weightlifted
Speaker 1: from your own shoulders. It's like, ah, that's refreshing. Well,
Speaker 1: there was an article in the Wall Street Journal that
Speaker 1: kind of told you.
Speaker 4: How to do that, how to say no at work,
Speaker 4: Just no, no, I'm not going to do that.
Speaker 2: Well, let's go back to why it's hard to say no.
Speaker 2: A lot of people are concerned that if you say no,
Speaker 2: you might damage the relationship with whoever's asking you to
Speaker 2: do something.
Speaker 1: Well, in a lot of jobs, if you say no,
Speaker 1: there will be people behind you that will say yes,
Speaker 1: and then they will get the job in the paycheck
Speaker 1: and your sol I come from a school of thought
Speaker 1: of you allow it to everything. No, you say yes
Speaker 1: to everything. Oh, especially in radio. Oh can you work
Speaker 1: Christmas morning? Absolutely?
Speaker 4: I can.
Speaker 1: You said yes to everything to get on the air.
Speaker 1: Can you work weak ans, yes, I can. Can you
Speaker 1: work nights? Yes I can? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: it's how you Can you work for free?
Speaker 4: Yes I can. I mean we all did that.
Speaker 5: While you're here. Could you take the garbage out?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure I can. Absolutely.
Speaker 5: I'll be the best garbage taker out or you've ever seen.
Speaker 1: And that's what you have to do in some jobs.
Speaker 1: But I guess there comes a time when things become
Speaker 1: a little bit unnecessary, like company dinners, unnecessary meetings, saying
Speaker 1: yes to being available when you're on vacation or at home,
Speaker 1: things like that. I guess when you're not, when you're
Speaker 1: not twenty two trying to make it in radio, it's
Speaker 1: okay to say no once in a while.
Speaker 2: Every once in a while there is a I said that.
Speaker 2: You know, there's a perception that if you say no,
Speaker 2: you're going to ruin a relationship that you have with
Speaker 2: your coworker or supervisor, whatever.
Speaker 5: But the work that was done by this columnist.
Speaker 2: Talking to a bunch of different people, employment coaches, workplace advisors,
Speaker 2: they've said, people would actually perceive you as more decisive
Speaker 2: and purpose driven if you say no, if you say
Speaker 2: no the right way, and people much rather have you
Speaker 2: say no upfront than to say yes and realize maybe
Speaker 2: you've bit off more than you can chew, or you
Speaker 2: can't come through with the project, or your TPS reports
Speaker 2: are late even though you said you would be able
Speaker 2: to do them on This.
Speaker 1: Is like when they said yes to inviting Dayton to
Speaker 1: training camp for DCC, knowing that she was probably going to.
Speaker 4: Get a no.
Speaker 1: Eventually, she started watching that Why don't you just say
Speaker 1: no right away? It's three hours of my life yesterday
Speaker 1: I put three hours. Yeah, I loved every moment your
Speaker 1: couch meanwhile, was begging for forgiveness. That was hurtful, unnecessarily, Yes.
Speaker 5: You know, I'd rather say no right away then I'd
Speaker 5: be stuck in that What would you say you do here?
Speaker 4: Oh? Such a good movie?
Speaker 2: They said, choose your words when you do refuse something,
Speaker 2: you have to frame your response with empowered language. For instance,
Speaker 2: the I don't signals your no stems from who you
Speaker 2: are and the rules that you have set for yourself.
Speaker 1: I can't feels weak just coming out of your mouth.
Speaker 1: I can't I've got this, or I'm so overwhelmed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's so much awful. That's so untrue. Cognitive dissonance is
Speaker 1: what you're hearing when you say I can't.
Speaker 2: As opposed to I don't do more than I or
Speaker 2: I don't take on more than I know I can.
Speaker 5: Do something like that. I'll have to work it out.
Speaker 1: When have you been asked to do something that you've
Speaker 1: wanted to say no, but you've said yes?
Speaker 9: Uh?
Speaker 1: Oh, your face right now is smiling, and that is
Speaker 1: always a troubling sign.
Speaker 5: Is because I smiled immediately.
Speaker 2: Uh, It's been a long time since I've been asked
Speaker 2: to do something I didn't want to.
Speaker 4: Oh, I know what it is, but.
Speaker 5: I always do it. That's the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I mean I know because that's who
Speaker 1: you are well, and it's good.
Speaker 5: It's not just me and my attitude. There's a lot
Speaker 5: of people.
Speaker 4: There's other people that work here exactly.
Speaker 2: And if I do something, I want to be able
Speaker 2: to do it to help other people.
Speaker 1: You're also, your character is not one that shies away
Speaker 1: from any work, no matter what it is, even if
Speaker 1: you don't want to do it, even if I don't
Speaker 1: want to do it or I think it's pointless. In
Speaker 1: some case, it's a part of your fiber. It's not
Speaker 1: a weakness. So with that said, do you think you
Speaker 1: could come.
Speaker 5: I don't.
Speaker 4: I can't.
Speaker 5: I don't bite off more than I could.
Speaker 1: There was a story about a woman who runs a
Speaker 1: legal brothel, and this was in Newsweek. The headline is,
Speaker 1: I run a legal brothel. Here's what it's taught me
Speaker 1: about people's fantasies. Okay, now I saw this this morning
Speaker 1: and I thought, well, that might be fun to talk about.
Speaker 1: And I was like, it probably won't be It'll probably
Speaker 1: be super gross, and I don't need to know all
Speaker 1: the corners of people's minds and things like that.
Speaker 4: But then I aired on the side of I'm very curious.
Speaker 2: I'm very curious, speaking of which, we're taking your talkbacks
Speaker 2: on your relationships within laws, good bad, awful.
Speaker 10: Hearing shadows of course, I king, Yes, my ex mother
Speaker 10: in law was a nightmare after the fact. She was
Speaker 10: a nice person when I worked with her. She sets
Speaker 10: me up with a blind aid with her daughter. Fast
Speaker 10: forward a couple of years. We had a relationship, a
Speaker 10: horrible marriage, and a divorce. Oh because of my ex
Speaker 10: mother in law getting involved.
Speaker 5: Ever again, so nasty. I don't.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: There was an article in Newsweek about a woman who
Speaker 1: runs a legal brothel, and here's how it begins.
Speaker 4: It's just kind of proof that.
Speaker 1: The spectrum of what people are into fantasy, sexually, whatever
Speaker 1: is a large spectrum. As I mentioned, here is how
Speaker 1: it begins. He arrived merely with a toolbox, a jumpsuit
Speaker 1: and an urgent look on his face. He nodded blightly
Speaker 1: to the receptionists, checked in with the same quiet formality
Speaker 1: someone might use at a dentist's office, and then went
Speaker 1: upstairs in the brothel. For the next hour, he repaired
Speaker 1: the sink, adjusted the shower head, ran tests on the toilet.
Speaker 1: He had his own set of tools. The sex worker
Speaker 1: he had booked played along, letting him go about his
Speaker 1: performative plumbing uninterrupted. When time was up, he changed out
Speaker 1: of the jumpsuit back into his normal clothes, thanked her
Speaker 1: for a wonderful evening, and walked out the door with
Speaker 1: the calm satisfaction of a man who had just fulfilled
Speaker 1: a deep need. Okay, what that's what he's into? How
Speaker 1: is that considered sexual? Because for him, for him, it
Speaker 1: is for him doing plumbing tasks gets him to that location,
Speaker 1: gets him there. We don't know if that's what happened, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't know if there was that action
Speaker 1: we do with him, but it certainly seems like doing
Speaker 1: that in front of a woman gave him the satisfaction
Speaker 1: that he was seeking.
Speaker 4: She says.
Speaker 1: To some this may sound bizarre or laughable, maybe just
Speaker 1: playing sad, but she said, as the manager of a
Speaker 1: legal brothel, this was just another Tuesday. Over the past
Speaker 1: nine years that she has worked there, she says she's
Speaker 1: seen about every expression of sexuality you can imagine and
Speaker 1: some you cannot imagine. She said, from classic role plays
Speaker 1: surrounding one's age or pets, to the strangely specific like
Speaker 1: this one is like men being aroused by women playing
Speaker 1: with toy cars or eating pizza. So matchbox cars are
Speaker 1: a thing Okay, I have a brother. He loves max
Speaker 1: Car matchbox cars. Sure, I'll still get him one from
Speaker 1: here and again when I see him at the grocery store.
Speaker 1: I don't think as much as he loves matchbox car
Speaker 1: and listen.
Speaker 4: I don't know what he's in do with his girlfriend,
Speaker 4: but I don't think it entails her playing with a
Speaker 4: matchbox car.
Speaker 5: No. This woman also says.
Speaker 4: Oddly, he's also a plumber, and.
Speaker 5: Maybe there is some connection there.
Speaker 2: Uh, there's one guy who couldn't get aroused unless the
Speaker 2: woman he had booked red car manuals to him out loud.
Speaker 4: Same dude that we're talking about.
Speaker 1: My brother loves car manuals or loves reybuilding transmissions and
Speaker 1: the like.
Speaker 2: The guy who paid for an hour simply to sit
Speaker 2: quietly while the woman played with her hair and watched cartoons.
Speaker 4: My brother also loves cartoons.
Speaker 5: Is this dude?
Speaker 1: I need to make a phone call. I don't you
Speaker 1: know what he should live his life? If this is
Speaker 1: based on him, that's cool, Like whatever, be happy.
Speaker 2: In some times, she says that she's seen people break
Speaker 2: down crying halfway through.
Speaker 1: That's a problem if you're crying during any sort of
Speaker 1: sexual experience. I think that's definitely something to work on
Speaker 1: with a trained professional.
Speaker 5: Well, that's maybe why they're doing it.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I mean like a trained head, like a
Speaker 1: neuro profession to start somewhere.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess one of them.
Speaker 1: Said that they booked time just to be insulted, because
Speaker 1: that's what helped them release control. She says, in each
Speaker 1: of these cases, the brothel she works then it works in,
Speaker 1: is not a place of debauchery. It's a stage where
Speaker 1: people try on versions of themselves that the outside world
Speaker 1: simply will not allow.
Speaker 4: Hmmm.
Speaker 1: I don't think it would be a problem. Like if
Speaker 1: you went home to your wife tonight and you said,
Speaker 1: you know what I want to do tonight, like cry
Speaker 1: right in the middle. No, no, no, that's not a that's
Speaker 1: not negotiable.
Speaker 4: But if you said, like, will you play.
Speaker 1: With some Matchbox cars and watch Scooby Doo, she'd be
Speaker 1: fine with that. She'd be like, Oh, that's what you're right, Like,
Speaker 1: that's not.
Speaker 4: A big ask.
Speaker 1: You wouldn't have to go to a brothel and pay
Speaker 1: someone for that, Like she would do.
Speaker 5: That maybe, yeah, but there would be some follow up.
Speaker 4: There'd be some questions, yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2: Like where Are you gonna get that matchbox cars the
Speaker 2: Vaughn's Okay, yeah, because I'm not taking it out of
Speaker 2: my son's room.
Speaker 1: Nor don't make it weird me. Okay, Hold on a second.
Speaker 2: You're the one who's painting this pretty interesting picture of
Speaker 2: your own brother.
Speaker 4: I know I'm gonna have to catch up with him.
Speaker 4: Make a call, see how things are going up there.
Speaker 2: All right, you're in laws? Are they great? Are they awful?
Speaker 2: Do they do they fit the stereotype? We'll talk about
Speaker 2: it when we come back.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: AM six forty.
Speaker 4: Do you love a story of a frivolous lawsuit?
Speaker 5: Much depends?
Speaker 2: Is it written on yellow legal pad by a prisoner?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 5: Oh, those are my face.
Speaker 1: Woman in North Carolina is suing her former workplace overclaims
Speaker 1: that a supervisor intimidated her with.
Speaker 4: A chucky doll.
Speaker 2: Oh this is he left the chucky doll in the
Speaker 2: car or something like that.
Speaker 1: She's suing Trust Bank, saying she suffers from a fear
Speaker 1: of dolls, a phobia, and that she was traumatized into
Speaker 1: treatment because of this. She claims the supervisor left the
Speaker 1: chucky doll on her desk. That doll is very creepy. However,
Speaker 1: if I came to work and there was a Chucky
Speaker 1: doll sitting on my desk, I'd be like, let's go.
Speaker 1: Let's go, Chucky. You and me will burn the whole
Speaker 1: place down right or die. Let's go. Like Chuckie and
Speaker 1: I would be BFFs instantly around here.
Speaker 2: Don't you think.
Speaker 1: Don't you think you'd welcome that kind of friend friendship here?
Speaker 1: Does you see what happens to shake things up?
Speaker 4: Shake things up?
Speaker 5: Why not? Why not?
Speaker 1: That's what that doll did. That family was living its life,
Speaker 1: nice little family. Chucky was like, this is boring, Let's
Speaker 1: shake things up.
Speaker 2: How did you have the strength to stab those people
Speaker 2: all those times?
Speaker 4: Oh? He had sizeable arms.
Speaker 1: Chunky for you know, Chucky was a little chunky, little
Speaker 1: chunk chunk.
Speaker 2: SpaceX rocket being tested in Texas exploded. The company said
Speaker 2: that the Starship experienced a major anomaly.
Speaker 5: Just about eleven o'clock last night.
Speaker 2: Well, it was on the test stand at Starbase, the
Speaker 2: launch site down in the southern tip of Texas. Nobody
Speaker 2: was hurt, no hazards to nearby communities.
Speaker 5: They said.
Speaker 2: It asked people to try not to approach the site
Speaker 2: mark the latest in a string of incidents this year
Speaker 2: that involved the massive rockets. A short time after the
Speaker 2: complete destruction of that rocket, Elon Musk took to Twitter
Speaker 2: and said, just to scratch, do we have horror stories?
Speaker 1: Well, we have nice stories, but people like Merlass, not
Speaker 1: all of them.
Speaker 10: So here's the best part about my in laws.
Speaker 1: They're both dead and I have no more problems with them.
Speaker 4: What good Lord, I put them the creepy as.
Speaker 11: Well.
Speaker 8: I've been married twice and actually my first husband's mom
Speaker 8: embraced my second husband more like her son than she
Speaker 8: did her own son. So we had a very blended,
Speaker 8: splendid family.
Speaker 2: My parents were effusive with their praise of our choice
Speaker 2: of choices of spouses, choices of spouses, and they would
Speaker 2: often say to my sisters and I that they would
Speaker 2: rather if we ever broke up, we ever got a divorce,
Speaker 2: they would take my wife over me, or they would
Speaker 2: take my sister's husbands over them.
Speaker 4: Oh that's a they'd being nice.
Speaker 5: Yeah, But I mean, what.
Speaker 1: Did your mom think about your first fiance?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 5: Probably not impressed.
Speaker 1: Do you remember anything she said? No, they were very timeful.
Speaker 1: It was a feeling you had.
Speaker 2: My brother in law was really the only one who
Speaker 2: said anything afterwards.
Speaker 5: What did he say, like, I knew it wasn't going
Speaker 5: to work out?
Speaker 4: Really?
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was the only Roger. No, he was the
Speaker 2: only one that said anything. Huh.
Speaker 4: Not even your friends, No, No, I.
Speaker 5: Kept it to themselves if they felt that.
Speaker 4: Did he show his math on that or just a
Speaker 4: feeling he had?
Speaker 1: He just said it was a feeling, which was great, yeah,
Speaker 1: because it worked out well. And then they meet your
Speaker 1: wife at the time, your girlfriend, and they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: thank god.
Speaker 2: Right, he clearly has learned his He's learned from his
Speaker 2: mistakes and Shannon.
Speaker 11: In my first marriage, my mother in law and father
Speaker 11: in law were amazing. I just loved them to death.
Speaker 11: And the second marriage, my father in law was awesome.
Speaker 11: My mother in law was a nightmare. They she had
Speaker 11: a weird relationship with her son or he with her.
Speaker 11: And then my older brother married someone that I didn't
