1
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,333
(upbeat music)

2
01:00:05,625 --> 01:00:07,750
My back does not appreciate that at all.

3
01:00:08,291 --> 01:00:09,208
Was it worth it?

4
01:00:09,333 --> 01:00:10,208
No, not at all.

5
01:00:10,583 --> 01:00:11,500
No, no.

6
01:00:11,583 --> 01:00:12,875
I mean, I've got some stories.

7
01:00:13,250 --> 01:00:15,916
Oh, you have some incredible stories.

8
01:00:16,375 --> 01:00:17,500
Acquiring minds want to know,

9
01:00:17,500 --> 01:00:19,500
well, we'll just tell you what it was.

10
01:00:20,333 --> 01:00:21,708
Getting old, this is what

11
01:00:21,708 --> 01:00:22,833
they say about getting old.

12
01:00:22,833 --> 01:00:24,666
It's not necessarily graceful.

13
01:00:25,625 --> 01:00:26,333
I'm talking to the

14
01:00:26,333 --> 01:00:27,291
lady that's in an e-brace.

15
01:00:27,750 --> 01:00:28,541
I know, like

16
01:00:28,541 --> 01:00:31,500
stereotypical, like old couple.

17
01:00:32,333 --> 01:00:34,375
I don't enjoy running at all.

18
01:00:35,125 --> 01:00:36,791
They had to drag me off the

19
01:00:36,791 --> 01:00:38,708
floor as I'm like whimpering.

20
01:00:39,375 --> 01:00:40,416
And I'm laying there

21
01:00:40,416 --> 01:00:41,458
for like 20 more minutes

22
01:00:41,458 --> 01:00:42,625
because I can't move.

23
01:00:43,250 --> 01:00:46,125
No, I laid there like a limp dead fish.

24
01:00:46,666 --> 01:00:47,708
That day was the greatest thing.

25
01:00:47,708 --> 01:00:48,500
They gave me laughing

26
01:00:48,500 --> 01:00:50,250
gas, I got a shot, but yeah.

27
01:00:52,458 --> 01:00:53,333
That couple's in trouble.

28
01:00:53,625 --> 01:00:54,333
Did you know it?

29
01:00:54,375 --> 01:00:55,416
The physics of being

30
01:00:55,416 --> 01:00:56,541
nine months pregnant,

31
01:00:57,041 --> 01:00:58,458
bending down, trying to, you know,

32
01:00:58,458 --> 01:00:59,916
they're all about you

33
01:00:59,916 --> 01:01:01,458
and taking care of you.

34
01:01:02,500 --> 01:01:03,000
Hello?

35
01:01:04,166 --> 01:01:05,541
Yeah, I totally stole

36
01:01:05,541 --> 01:01:08,250
your show that night.

37
01:01:08,916 --> 01:01:09,916
I mean, I did get a

38
01:01:09,916 --> 01:01:10,708
medal of honor for it.

39
01:01:10,750 --> 01:01:11,583
You did, you did.

40
01:01:12,166 --> 01:01:13,458
You got that gold medal.

41
01:01:14,083 --> 01:01:14,625
Gold star.

42
01:01:15,125 --> 01:01:15,625
Hey, Jesus.

43
01:01:15,958 --> 01:01:16,458
Yeah, praise Jesus.

44
01:01:16,916 --> 01:01:17,125
Ha!

45
01:01:18,083 --> 01:01:19,291
You're not gonna win this.

46
01:01:19,291 --> 01:01:20,500
Yeah, yeah.

47
01:01:21,958 --> 01:01:22,791
We're both smiling at

48
01:01:22,791 --> 01:01:24,500
each other because I think

49
01:01:24,500 --> 01:01:25,000
that's one of those

50
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:26,166
things that you believe

51
01:01:26,291 --> 01:01:27,083
that you help a lot.

52
01:01:28,083 --> 01:01:28,708
And then there's things

53
01:01:28,708 --> 01:01:29,750
that we pay people for.

54
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:30,708
And then there's things

55
01:01:30,708 --> 01:01:31,791
that we pay people for.

56
01:01:31,958 --> 01:01:33,541
Which gets longer and longer.

57
01:01:34,583 --> 01:01:37,500
You ran head first into a moving car.

58
01:01:37,791 --> 01:01:38,000
Yes.

59
01:01:39,083 --> 01:01:40,541
My brother, which just got hit by a car.

60
01:01:41,666 --> 01:01:42,750
I still think it was a sabotage.

61
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,541
Someone cut his brake

62
01:01:46,541 --> 01:01:47,458
line, his brake line.

63
01:01:47,791 --> 01:01:48,000
Yeah.

64
01:01:49,166 --> 01:01:51,000
Yeah, it's a pretty wicked scar.

65
01:01:51,916 --> 01:01:53,083
Isn't that always how it happens?

66
01:01:53,083 --> 01:01:53,791
It's always how it happens.

67
01:01:54,041 --> 01:01:55,250
It's always the one more time.

68
01:01:56,583 --> 01:01:59,458
And it is a gash that you could measure.

69
01:01:59,458 --> 01:02:01,583
And I was like, I will

70
01:02:01,583 --> 01:02:02,375
go with a little master.

71
01:02:03,083 --> 01:02:04,250
And I've been there for a while now.

72
01:02:04,250 --> 01:02:05,208
It's like when I was younger.

73
01:02:06,250 --> 01:02:08,541
So for the record, don't do this.

74
01:02:08,583 --> 01:02:09,125
Don't do this.

75
01:02:09,125 --> 01:02:11,416
Just, you know, I was like, what?

76
01:02:11,416 --> 01:02:14,500
And I, 2008, believe it or not, was a

77
01:02:14,500 --> 01:02:15,666
really long time ago.

78
01:02:16,083 --> 01:02:17,625
Yeah, I mean, and that's bad,

79
01:02:17,958 --> 01:02:19,041
but I think her

80
01:02:19,041 --> 01:02:21,333
justification, even after the fact,

81
01:02:21,875 --> 01:02:22,875
that's almost worse.

82
01:02:23,500 --> 01:02:24,500
Blase about it.

83
01:02:24,500 --> 01:02:25,375
I just wanted you to

84
01:02:25,375 --> 01:02:26,666
have a dose of reality.

85
01:02:27,666 --> 01:02:30,041
And who gave her, who,

86
01:02:30,041 --> 01:02:31,666
I mean, who named her?

87
01:02:32,583 --> 01:02:34,250
Don't you dare have a positive attitude

88
01:02:34,250 --> 01:02:35,000
going into something that

89
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:36,625
could just ruin your life.

90
01:02:37,291 --> 01:02:38,333
They got a name for that lady.

91
01:02:39,583 --> 01:02:39,791
Aww.

92
01:02:42,291 --> 01:02:42,958
No, I'm coming.

93
01:02:43,416 --> 01:02:44,250
Oh, yeah.

94
01:02:44,541 --> 01:02:45,666
I'm gearing up and I'm coming.

95
01:02:45,958 --> 01:02:46,666
I will get you.

96
01:02:47,458 --> 01:02:48,166
Megan's back to back

97
01:02:48,166 --> 01:02:49,041
to back to back to back.

98
01:02:49,041 --> 01:02:51,333
You are a very important person.

99
01:02:51,583 --> 01:02:53,250
A Blensingney-Burner incident.

100
01:02:54,666 --> 01:02:55,375
Once in Burners, I lost

101
01:02:55,375 --> 01:02:56,625
my eyelashes, by the way.

102
01:02:56,833 --> 01:02:57,666
I don't know what that

103
01:02:57,666 --> 01:02:58,791
means, but that sounds dangerous.

104
01:02:59,416 --> 01:03:02,333
Well, that don't go well together, right?

105
01:03:02,333 --> 01:03:03,750
Because we're idiots, right?

106
01:03:05,250 --> 01:03:06,458
I, you know, I got away with it.

107
01:03:07,041 --> 01:03:07,958
One was super fun.

108
01:03:08,208 --> 01:03:09,291
That was the Halloween blizzard.

109
01:03:10,125 --> 01:03:10,708
Yeah, we couldn't even

110
01:03:10,708 --> 01:03:11,791
see out some of our windows

111
01:03:11,958 --> 01:03:14,000
because there was just too much snow.

112
01:03:14,500 --> 01:03:14,791
Yeah.

113
01:03:14,791 --> 01:03:15,750
The actual temperature

114
01:03:15,750 --> 01:03:17,833
was negative 36 degrees

115
01:03:18,583 --> 01:03:19,500
and the wind chill was

116
01:03:19,500 --> 01:03:22,041
negative 66, I think.

117
01:03:22,958 --> 01:03:24,125
We were wearing heated

118
01:03:24,125 --> 01:03:25,458
apparel at this point.

119
01:03:26,500 --> 01:03:26,666
Randy.

120
01:03:26,958 --> 01:03:27,208
Randy.

121
01:03:27,541 --> 01:03:29,916
I can't put my arms down.

122
01:03:31,291 --> 01:03:32,291
Aww, if you have a

123
01:03:32,291 --> 01:03:34,000
doxy, they hate snow, so.

124
01:03:34,625 --> 01:03:35,833
We're not on the same page all the time

125
01:03:35,833 --> 01:03:36,375
because you're not

126
01:03:36,375 --> 01:03:38,791
necessarily finishing my excursions.

127
01:03:39,166 --> 01:03:39,750
There you go.

128
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:40,541
That one works.

129
01:03:41,708 --> 01:03:43,458
Welcome to the Mr. and

130
01:03:43,458 --> 01:03:44,291
Mrs. English podcast.

131
01:03:44,791 --> 01:03:45,166
I'm Megan.

132
01:03:45,583 --> 01:03:46,125
And I'm Sean.

133
01:03:46,416 --> 01:03:47,458
We're here to talk about

134
01:03:47,458 --> 01:03:49,083
the wild ride of raising kids

135
01:03:49,083 --> 01:03:50,000
and growing careers,

136
01:03:50,458 --> 01:03:51,541
and keeping life together in

137
01:03:51,541 --> 01:03:52,708
the middle of all the chaos.

138
01:03:53,375 --> 01:03:55,291
So buckle up because we're all

139
01:03:55,291 --> 01:03:56,750
in this crazy journey together.

140
01:03:58,583 --> 01:04:02,416
How did you know it was

141
01:04:02,416 --> 01:04:03,333
episode 11 so quickly?

142
01:04:05,333 --> 01:04:06,416
Episode 11 so quickly?

143
01:04:06,458 --> 01:04:07,833
Yeah. Well, last week was episode 10.

144
01:04:08,208 --> 01:04:09,666
Oh, okay.

145
01:04:10,916 --> 01:04:11,125
Seriously?

146
01:04:11,833 --> 01:04:13,208
Yeah, I haven't been counting, I guess,

147
01:04:13,208 --> 01:04:14,041
as well as you have.

148
01:04:16,208 --> 01:04:17,000
When I do the video,

149
01:04:17,541 --> 01:04:18,541
when I put the things up,

150
01:04:18,583 --> 01:04:20,583
everything's episode 10 or

151
01:04:20,583 --> 01:04:22,458
episode 10 teaser, episode 10.

152
01:04:22,541 --> 01:04:23,416
Yeah, yeah.

153
01:04:23,458 --> 01:04:24,833
So yeah, I'm very aware.

154
01:04:24,833 --> 01:04:25,291
You are.

155
01:04:25,291 --> 01:04:25,916
Episode 11, yeah,

156
01:04:25,916 --> 01:04:26,666
we're into double digits.

157
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:27,333
It's crazy.

158
01:04:27,875 --> 01:04:29,583
Wow, yay, we made it.

159
01:04:29,625 --> 01:04:30,750
Yeah, great stuff.

160
01:04:31,208 --> 01:04:32,541
Well, welcome everybody, episode 11.

161
01:04:33,083 --> 01:04:33,500
Episode 11.

162
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:34,458
That's right.

163
01:04:35,500 --> 01:04:36,833
Well, I know we, if you

164
01:04:36,833 --> 01:04:37,916
see me looking uncomfortable

165
01:04:37,916 --> 01:04:39,333
and squirming a little bit if you're

166
01:04:39,333 --> 01:04:40,208
watching it on YouTube,

167
01:04:40,583 --> 01:04:41,791
I know you can't tell when,

168
01:04:42,375 --> 01:04:43,791
maybe I'll groan a little bit or whatnot,

169
01:04:43,791 --> 01:04:44,666
but we were taught, I

170
01:04:44,666 --> 01:04:45,625
left you last week saying,

171
01:04:45,625 --> 01:04:46,375
"Hey, it's spring."

172
01:04:46,625 --> 01:04:48,000
And we're gonna start

173
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,791
cleaning up for spring

174
01:04:49,791 --> 01:04:50,500
and doing some of this.

175
01:04:50,500 --> 01:04:51,416
Well, I was yesterday.

176
01:04:51,708 --> 01:04:52,791
You were, you worked

177
01:04:52,791 --> 01:04:54,375
outside a lot yesterday.

178
01:04:54,375 --> 01:04:55,375
Yeah, I got a lot of

179
01:04:55,375 --> 01:04:56,875
some weed pulling going on,

180
01:04:56,875 --> 01:04:58,416
some of the weeds,

181
01:04:58,416 --> 01:04:59,458
cleaned up some of the bushes,

182
01:05:01,208 --> 01:05:02,000
trimmed up some of these

183
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,375
trees and stuff in the backyard.

184
01:05:03,791 --> 01:05:05,875
But the long and the short of it is,

185
01:05:05,875 --> 01:05:07,500
my back did not appreciate it.

186
01:05:07,500 --> 01:05:09,000
No, it did not.

187
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:10,000
As much as you appreciate it

188
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:11,458
and I appreciate the house looking nicer,

189
01:05:12,333 --> 01:05:14,541
my back does not appreciate that at all.

190
01:05:15,291 --> 01:05:15,958
Was it worth it?

191
01:05:16,333 --> 01:05:17,166
No, not at all.

192
01:05:17,666 --> 01:05:18,708
No, no, no.

193
01:05:18,708 --> 01:05:20,250
I feel terrible for you.

194
01:05:20,250 --> 01:05:21,875
I mean, you've been

195
01:05:21,875 --> 01:05:23,750
plagued by back spasms

196
01:05:24,041 --> 01:05:26,958
and herniated discs and

197
01:05:26,958 --> 01:05:28,458
all of that for years now.

198
01:05:29,416 --> 01:05:30,833
Well, yeah, but I mean,

199
01:05:30,833 --> 01:05:32,000
I had it under control.

200
01:05:33,333 --> 01:05:34,333
It was really from my

201
01:05:34,333 --> 01:05:37,875
early 20s to maybe my early 30s

202
01:05:37,875 --> 01:05:40,250
because the last real bad one was the

203
01:05:40,250 --> 01:05:41,208
night bear was born.

204
01:05:41,250 --> 01:05:42,083
Yeah, uh-huh.

205
01:05:42,125 --> 01:05:44,250
We know that story pretty well, but yeah.

206
01:05:45,500 --> 01:05:46,750
No, I mean, I didn't know

207
01:05:46,750 --> 01:05:47,833
what it was for the longest time

208
01:05:47,833 --> 01:05:48,541
and I don't know if it was

209
01:05:48,541 --> 01:05:49,625
just because I stopped playing

210
01:05:49,625 --> 01:05:50,666
so many sports and I

211
01:05:50,666 --> 01:05:52,458
wasn't stretching as much.

212
01:05:52,458 --> 01:05:54,333
But I think the long and the short of it,

213
01:05:54,333 --> 01:05:55,583
the root cause is just lack of

214
01:05:55,583 --> 01:05:58,458
flexibility in my hamstrings,

215
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,916
which causes back spasms kind of.

216
01:06:02,750 --> 01:06:03,916
And this isn't just your

217
01:06:03,916 --> 01:06:05,041
run of the mill back spasm.

218
01:06:05,458 --> 01:06:06,708
I mean, I've got some stories.

219
01:06:07,041 --> 01:06:09,875
Oh, you have some incredible stories.

220
01:06:09,875 --> 01:06:10,750
And this is also, a lot

221
01:06:10,750 --> 01:06:11,750
of people would probably,

222
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:12,666
they see you stretching.

223
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:14,083
You stretch a lot.

224
01:06:14,125 --> 01:06:14,541
All the time.

225
01:06:15,291 --> 01:06:16,333
Especially soccer games on the sidelines

226
01:06:16,333 --> 01:06:17,083
where you've been standing

227
01:06:17,083 --> 01:06:18,833
or sitting in lawn chairs,

228
01:06:18,833 --> 01:06:20,291
which aren't great support.

229
01:06:21,041 --> 01:06:22,458
And I don't think anyone's

230
01:06:22,458 --> 01:06:23,416
ever really asked you like,

231
01:06:24,166 --> 01:06:25,541
hey, why are you stretching,

232
01:06:25,750 --> 01:06:27,333
like in the middle of just everyone?

233
01:06:27,375 --> 01:06:28,875
Yeah, it's not my gymnastics career.

234
01:06:30,041 --> 01:06:30,583
No, no.

235
01:06:31,125 --> 01:06:32,750
So for those of you who have always,

236
01:06:33,125 --> 01:06:34,458
inquiring minds want to know,

237
01:06:34,458 --> 01:06:36,583
well, we'll just tell you why it's

238
01:06:36,583 --> 01:06:37,750
because of the bad back.

239
01:06:38,416 --> 01:06:39,708
Yeah, I hate to say it's bad back

240
01:06:39,708 --> 01:06:40,166
because now that I

241
01:06:40,166 --> 01:06:41,041
know for the longest time,

242
01:06:41,041 --> 01:06:41,875
I didn't know what it was.

243
01:06:42,541 --> 01:06:45,250
So I do have a couple, what is it?

244
01:06:45,250 --> 01:06:45,916
Bulging discs.

245
01:06:46,500 --> 01:06:49,541
I've got a couple degenerative discs.

246
01:06:50,083 --> 01:06:51,458
So I do, I have got some

247
01:06:51,458 --> 01:06:53,041
back issues in the future

248
01:06:53,041 --> 01:06:54,875
that are gonna really kind of come to,

249
01:06:56,166 --> 01:06:57,583
it's gonna come to a head at some point.

250
01:06:57,583 --> 01:06:59,208
That hasn't yet.

251
01:06:59,208 --> 01:06:59,916
I've also got another

252
01:06:59,916 --> 01:07:01,250
issue in my neck now too,

253
01:07:01,250 --> 01:07:03,416
where I've got a pinched

254
01:07:03,416 --> 01:07:05,708
nerve in my neck through my spine

255
01:07:05,708 --> 01:07:07,000
because that's, now

256
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:08,375
that's another new issue.

257
01:07:08,750 --> 01:07:10,083
Getting old, this is what

258
01:07:10,083 --> 01:07:11,208
they say about getting old.

259
01:07:11,208 --> 01:07:13,083
It's not necessarily graceful.

260
01:07:13,958 --> 01:07:14,875
I'm talking to the lady

261
01:07:14,875 --> 01:07:15,958
that's in a knee brace.

262
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:17,541
I know, like one

263
01:07:17,541 --> 01:07:19,958
simple fall on a ski slope,

264
01:07:20,166 --> 01:07:21,500
like not doing anything crazy.

265
01:07:21,750 --> 01:07:22,791
Yeah, I know, we are at

266
01:07:22,791 --> 01:07:25,708
like the just stereotypical

267
01:07:26,458 --> 01:07:28,958
like old couple with these injuries,

268
01:07:29,541 --> 01:07:30,750
which is ironic because

269
01:07:30,750 --> 01:07:33,958
you especially work out,

270
01:07:33,958 --> 01:07:35,708
you keep it loose, you went for a run

271
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:36,791
right before you were

272
01:07:36,791 --> 01:07:38,083
out doing yard work,

273
01:07:38,083 --> 01:07:39,208
which really helps your

274
01:07:39,208 --> 01:07:40,166
back most of the time.

275
01:07:40,250 --> 01:07:41,916
That's why, that is why I run.

276
01:07:42,541 --> 01:07:44,708
I don't enjoy running at all.

277
01:07:44,958 --> 01:07:46,208
I know some people love it and whatnot.

278
01:07:46,458 --> 01:07:47,666
I do like getting out and

279
01:07:47,666 --> 01:07:48,666
it's nice in the morning

280
01:07:48,666 --> 01:07:49,708
and the sun and the birds

281
01:07:49,708 --> 01:07:50,416
and all that kind of stuff.

282
01:07:50,416 --> 01:07:51,708
I do like that, it's in then,

283
01:07:52,458 --> 01:07:54,375
but it's mainly to keep my back loose.

284
01:07:54,833 --> 01:07:55,875
So I have to stretch, I

285
01:07:55,875 --> 01:07:57,083
have to get at least a run

286
01:07:57,083 --> 01:07:59,625
in every other day to get my back loose

287
01:07:59,625 --> 01:08:01,125
or else I get these back spasms.

288
01:08:01,125 --> 01:08:02,291
But to my point earlier,

289
01:08:02,625 --> 01:08:03,958
I've had it under control

290
01:08:04,125 --> 01:08:07,416
for 10 years now, almost 15 years now.

291
01:08:07,916 --> 01:08:08,750
This is kind of the first

292
01:08:08,750 --> 01:08:09,916
time, and I'm not bad right now.

293
01:08:09,958 --> 01:08:10,958
It's just tweaked just

294
01:08:10,958 --> 01:08:13,708
slightly, but more so than usual.

295
01:08:13,708 --> 01:08:15,500
I don't know why this time is worse,

296
01:08:15,750 --> 01:08:18,000
but I mean, I've been,

297
01:08:18,791 --> 01:08:19,500
I used to always do it

298
01:08:19,500 --> 01:08:21,208
playing basketball after,

299
01:08:21,791 --> 01:08:23,375
now this is just in my 20s.

300
01:08:23,375 --> 01:08:25,000
So this is after I was done

301
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,125
on actual teams and whatnot.

302
01:08:27,125 --> 01:08:27,958
So I'd be playing pickup

303
01:08:27,958 --> 01:08:29,875
games at 24 hour fitness

304
01:08:29,875 --> 01:08:30,666
or something like that.

305
01:08:30,666 --> 01:08:32,416
But I remember one

306
01:08:32,416 --> 01:08:34,333
time I went up to jump,

307
01:08:35,125 --> 01:08:36,583
to get a rebound or something like that,

308
01:08:36,583 --> 01:08:37,958
and I felt it the second I jumped

309
01:08:38,083 --> 01:08:39,000
and I literally came

310
01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:40,416
down crashing to the floor.

311
01:08:40,958 --> 01:08:41,458
And again, these are

312
01:08:41,458 --> 01:08:42,416
not just run of the mill,

313
01:08:42,625 --> 01:08:44,250
like I'm gonna limp around back spasms.

314
01:08:44,708 --> 01:08:45,666
These are back spasms

315
01:08:45,666 --> 01:08:48,416
that I'm literally yelling,

316
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:50,666
whimpering in public

317
01:08:50,666 --> 01:08:52,458
on the basketball floor.

318
01:08:53,208 --> 01:08:55,250
They had to drag me off the floor

319
01:08:55,666 --> 01:08:58,708
as I'm like whimpering, like grimacing.

320
01:08:59,708 --> 01:09:00,500
Because it's, I mean,

321
01:09:00,500 --> 01:09:02,791
it is, it's full body.

322
01:09:02,791 --> 01:09:05,208
I mean, outside of my kidney stones,

323
01:09:06,750 --> 01:09:07,833
this is by far the

324
01:09:07,833 --> 01:09:08,958
worst pain I've ever had.

325
01:09:09,333 --> 01:09:11,000
Oh, yeah, well I remember.

326
01:09:11,375 --> 01:09:12,416
You've had them now.

327
01:09:13,041 --> 01:09:14,041
Yeah, at once.

328
01:09:14,083 --> 01:09:14,583
You had something

329
01:09:14,583 --> 01:09:16,291
similar a year ago or so?

330
01:09:16,416 --> 01:09:18,083
A couple years ago, yeah, it was awful.

331
01:09:18,375 --> 01:09:18,833
It was awful.

332
01:09:19,208 --> 01:09:19,916
And I remember saying, I'm

333
01:09:19,916 --> 01:09:21,375
like, I hate that you have it,

334
01:09:21,375 --> 01:09:22,041
but I'm glad you have an

335
01:09:22,041 --> 01:09:23,416
idea of what I went through

336
01:09:23,416 --> 01:09:24,625
back then because I

337
01:09:24,625 --> 01:09:27,375
mean, I remember at CSU even,

338
01:09:27,708 --> 01:09:29,208
I had this one of the first times

339
01:09:29,208 --> 01:09:30,375
and I was just on the couch,

340
01:09:30,583 --> 01:09:31,666
they got me back to the couch.

341
01:09:31,708 --> 01:09:32,500
I have to have people.

342
01:09:32,791 --> 01:09:33,416
So literally to finish

343
01:09:33,416 --> 01:09:34,500
that 24 hour fitness one,

344
01:09:35,375 --> 01:09:38,000
they dragged me off the

345
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,166
court of basketball court,

346
01:09:39,166 --> 01:09:39,541
which is a pickup

347
01:09:39,541 --> 01:09:40,291
court, you know what I mean?

348
01:09:40,291 --> 01:09:40,916
Like all these guys who

349
01:09:40,916 --> 01:09:41,708
don't know each other,

350
01:09:42,041 --> 01:09:43,875
they're like, get the guy off the court,

351
01:09:44,083 --> 01:09:44,625
you know what I mean?

352
01:09:44,625 --> 01:09:45,833
Like what is wrong with this guy?

353
01:09:46,625 --> 01:09:48,125
Writing the chalk around you, apparently.

354
01:09:48,500 --> 01:09:49,250
Yeah, well no, they

355
01:09:49,250 --> 01:09:50,125
dragged me off the court.

356
01:09:50,125 --> 01:09:52,166
I'm a foot off the line now

357
01:09:52,666 --> 01:09:53,500
and I'm laying there

358
01:09:53,500 --> 01:09:54,583
for like 20 more minutes

359
01:09:54,583 --> 01:09:55,791
because I can't move.

360
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,125
I cannot move anything in my body

361
01:09:59,125 --> 01:10:00,750
and if you've ever done this,

362
01:10:00,750 --> 01:10:01,458
you know everything

363
01:10:01,458 --> 01:10:02,500
runs through your back,

364
01:10:03,250 --> 01:10:05,125
your posture, your core,

365
01:10:05,583 --> 01:10:06,208
all that kind of stuff.

366
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:07,583
So moving your neck,

367
01:10:07,958 --> 01:10:09,041
moving your head anyway

368
01:10:09,583 --> 01:10:10,500
goes through your core.

369
01:10:11,833 --> 01:10:13,625
So I literally cannot move without it

370
01:10:13,625 --> 01:10:14,833
sending just a shock

371
01:10:15,875 --> 01:10:18,083
of the second worst pain I've ever had

372
01:10:18,583 --> 01:10:19,916
and it's lasting.

373
01:10:20,166 --> 01:10:21,708
So I laid on the side of the basketball

374
01:10:21,708 --> 01:10:23,000
court for 20 minutes.

375
01:10:23,625 --> 01:10:25,666
Like I can't only imagine

376
01:10:25,666 --> 01:10:26,666
what those people thought.

377
01:10:27,416 --> 01:10:28,250
They didn't know you.

378
01:10:28,250 --> 01:10:29,833
What is that guy doing?

379
01:10:30,708 --> 01:10:31,375
Well, especially if you're

380
01:10:31,375 --> 01:10:32,333
playing with like older players

381
01:10:32,541 --> 01:10:33,875
in your 20s and

382
01:10:33,875 --> 01:10:34,750
they're looking at you like,

383
01:10:34,750 --> 01:10:35,500
you're in your prime,

384
01:10:35,500 --> 01:10:36,416
man, what's going on?

385
01:10:36,666 --> 01:10:38,250
It's not like I got off the court

386
01:10:38,250 --> 01:10:39,541
and went and sat down on the bench

387
01:10:39,541 --> 01:10:40,083
and you know, I was

388
01:10:40,083 --> 01:10:41,208
just putting my head down

389
01:10:41,208 --> 01:10:42,625
and like just taking a

390
01:10:42,625 --> 01:10:44,875
moment to catch myself.

391
01:10:45,208 --> 01:10:48,041
No, I laid there like a limp dead fish

392
01:10:48,500 --> 01:10:49,208
on the side of the

393
01:10:49,208 --> 01:10:50,375
basketball court for like 20 minutes

394
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,375
till finally I think

395
01:10:52,375 --> 01:10:53,916
somebody like went and got a manager

396
01:10:53,916 --> 01:10:55,625
or maybe I asked for that.

397
01:10:55,625 --> 01:10:55,916
Right.

398
01:10:57,041 --> 01:10:57,916
Like I need help.

399
01:10:58,625 --> 01:11:00,708
I gotta get home now.

400
01:11:00,791 --> 01:11:01,791
Cause I can't walk.

401
01:11:02,166 --> 01:11:03,875
I can't move, let alone walk.

402
01:11:03,875 --> 01:11:04,541
I drove there.

403
01:11:05,291 --> 01:11:05,916
Long story short on

404
01:11:05,916 --> 01:11:07,250
this particular event,

405
01:11:07,250 --> 01:11:09,375
I've done this badly

406
01:11:09,375 --> 01:11:11,875
during that 10, 15 year period.

407
01:11:11,916 --> 01:11:12,083
Yeah.

408
01:11:12,625 --> 01:11:13,333
More than a handful of

409
01:11:13,333 --> 01:11:14,375
times, maybe less than 10,

410
01:11:14,541 --> 01:11:16,000
but I mean the bad, bad,

411
01:11:16,083 --> 01:11:17,375
I've tweaked it a million times.

412
01:11:17,458 --> 01:11:17,708
Right.

413
01:11:17,791 --> 01:11:19,416
But the bad, bad ones like this one,

414
01:11:19,875 --> 01:11:21,458
I was in Kansas City at this time

415
01:11:22,291 --> 01:11:26,125
and the manager of 24 hour fitness

416
01:11:26,833 --> 01:11:27,166
Uh huh.

417
01:11:28,125 --> 01:11:29,416
And three other guys

418
01:11:29,416 --> 01:11:32,833
carried me to my car,

419
01:11:33,166 --> 01:11:34,791
put me in the backseat of my car.

420
01:11:35,291 --> 01:11:37,333
The manager had have somebody follow him

421
01:11:37,333 --> 01:11:39,666
as he drove my car 15

422
01:11:39,666 --> 01:11:41,041
minutes to my apartment

423
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:43,208
in Kansas City where

424
01:11:43,208 --> 01:11:44,958
they then had to drag me

425
01:11:45,708 --> 01:11:48,791
up to the stairs and lay me on the floor,

426
01:11:49,250 --> 01:11:50,916
my third bedroom apartment building.

427
01:11:51,875 --> 01:11:52,291
What?

428
01:11:52,541 --> 01:11:53,875
Where I had a roommate at the time

429
01:11:54,791 --> 01:12:00,500
and I laid on that floor sweaty, right?

430
01:12:00,500 --> 01:12:01,250
I had been playing basketball.

431
01:12:01,250 --> 01:12:02,583
Oh yeah, yeah, you're not clean.

432
01:12:03,083 --> 01:12:04,333
For two days, for 48

433
01:12:04,333 --> 01:12:07,041
hours, just grimacing in pain.

434
01:12:07,041 --> 01:12:08,458
I tried to like wash

435
01:12:08,458 --> 01:12:10,500
myself with like a wash rag

436
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:11,791
because I was sweaty.

437
01:12:12,125 --> 01:12:12,458
Yeah.

438
01:12:12,458 --> 01:12:13,458
And now it's all dried on me,

439
01:12:13,458 --> 01:12:15,166
but I cannot move because

440
01:12:15,166 --> 01:12:16,708
the back spasms are so bad.

441
01:12:17,333 --> 01:12:19,125
48 hours into it, you know,

442
01:12:19,125 --> 01:12:20,208
at the time I was in college,

443
01:12:20,500 --> 01:12:21,833
I was, you know, I worked at

444
01:12:21,833 --> 01:12:22,875
like the Cheesecake Factory

445
01:12:22,875 --> 01:12:23,500
or something stupid.

446
01:12:24,083 --> 01:12:26,250
Not stupid, but just what

447
01:12:26,250 --> 01:12:27,250
you do when you're in college.

448
01:12:27,291 --> 01:12:27,500
Right.

449
01:12:27,500 --> 01:12:28,083
You know, I had three

450
01:12:28,083 --> 01:12:29,250
jobs at the time probably,

451
01:12:29,250 --> 01:12:31,500
but I didn't have medical insurance

452
01:12:31,500 --> 01:12:32,833
because I'm working all part time jobs

453
01:12:32,833 --> 01:12:35,500
to work around 20 credit hours.

454
01:12:35,500 --> 01:12:37,333
You know, now I'm a non-traditional

455
01:12:37,333 --> 01:12:38,416
student at the time.

456
01:12:38,708 --> 01:12:39,500
So, you know, I'm just

457
01:12:39,500 --> 01:12:40,250
trying to make things work.

458
01:12:40,250 --> 01:12:41,791
Don't have, it was so bad.

459
01:12:42,375 --> 01:12:44,958
Well, I'm also having to use the restroom

460
01:12:45,333 --> 01:12:46,166
in the middle of the

461
01:12:46,166 --> 01:12:47,333
floor of the family room

462
01:12:47,333 --> 01:12:48,500
because I can't get to the bathroom.

463
01:12:48,833 --> 01:12:49,833
I literally did not

464
01:12:49,833 --> 01:12:51,916
move from that position,

465
01:12:52,583 --> 01:12:55,125
just writhing in pain all

466
01:12:55,125 --> 01:12:56,708
night long, all the next day.

467
01:12:57,250 --> 01:12:59,333
So I called an ambulance to come get me.

468
01:12:59,333 --> 01:13:00,416
They gave me laughing gas.

469
01:13:00,416 --> 01:13:01,208
They took me down the

470
01:13:01,208 --> 01:13:02,125
stairs in a stretcher.

471
01:13:02,916 --> 01:13:04,958
So when I have these things,

472
01:13:05,500 --> 01:13:08,166
and if you've ever had them, they're bad.

473
01:13:08,791 --> 01:13:09,083
Horrible.

474
01:13:09,458 --> 01:13:11,166
And I don't know, I think everybody says

475
01:13:11,166 --> 01:13:11,625
they have a high

476
01:13:11,625 --> 01:13:12,791
tolerance, pain tolerance.

477
01:13:13,166 --> 01:13:14,666
I have a high pain tolerance.

478
01:13:15,250 --> 01:13:16,541
I mean, I can't feel, whatever.

479
01:13:16,916 --> 01:13:17,708
I have a high pain tolerance.

480
01:13:18,166 --> 01:13:18,708
Yeah, yeah.

481
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:19,875
These bring me to my

482
01:13:19,875 --> 01:13:21,041
knees, not even to my knees,

483
01:13:21,125 --> 01:13:21,958
prostrate to the ground

484
01:13:21,958 --> 01:13:23,875
for hours, days on end.

485
01:13:24,208 --> 01:13:26,958
So I figured out that laying down on them

486
01:13:26,958 --> 01:13:28,333
was the worst thing I could do.

487
01:13:28,375 --> 01:13:28,666
Yeah.

488
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:30,500
Like that day was the greatest thing.

489
01:13:30,500 --> 01:13:31,666
They gave me laughing gas.

490
01:13:31,666 --> 01:13:32,708
I got a shot in the butt.

491
01:13:32,708 --> 01:13:33,291
I mean, yeah.

492
01:13:33,875 --> 01:13:34,875
(laughing) So like adrenaline

493
01:13:34,875 --> 01:13:37,125
and all kinds of stuff.

494
01:13:38,458 --> 01:13:39,958
But staying active,

495
01:13:40,416 --> 01:13:42,666
staying loose, walking on it,

496
01:13:42,666 --> 01:13:44,541
trying to keep it loose is what helps.

497
01:13:45,125 --> 01:13:47,041
So if I kept the cameras rolling

498
01:13:47,041 --> 01:13:48,333
after I sit here for 40

499
01:13:48,333 --> 01:13:49,458
minutes and then try to get up,

500
01:13:49,458 --> 01:13:50,208
it would be pretty funny.

501
01:13:50,333 --> 01:13:52,083
It'll look like I'm 98 trying to get up.

502
01:13:52,291 --> 01:13:53,416
Oh, we should try that though.

503
01:13:53,791 --> 01:13:54,500
I'll go for a walk.

504
01:13:54,958 --> 01:13:56,500
We're gonna have to go for a walk, yeah.

505
01:13:56,500 --> 01:13:57,375
And then watching you

506
01:13:57,375 --> 01:13:58,083
get up and you're...

507
01:13:58,375 --> 01:14:00,916
Oh man, you all are gonna be like,

508
01:14:02,166 --> 01:14:03,000
that couple's in trouble.

509
01:14:03,250 --> 01:14:04,208
But you know it now,

510
01:14:04,208 --> 01:14:04,833
because when you did

511
01:14:04,833 --> 01:14:06,500
it, I remember being like,

512
01:14:06,541 --> 01:14:08,000
see, you can't put your

513
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:08,916
socks on, it's impossible.

514
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:11,000
You gotta bend your neck, everything.

515
01:14:11,958 --> 01:14:14,583
Well, I say, so I've really only been

516
01:14:14,583 --> 01:14:16,833
through one of these.

517
01:14:16,833 --> 01:14:18,291
I think one of the really bad ones,

518
01:14:18,291 --> 01:14:19,708
we were still living in separate cities.

519
01:14:19,750 --> 01:14:21,125
And so I wasn't there to

520
01:14:21,125 --> 01:14:23,708
see all the nitty gritty.

521
01:14:24,625 --> 01:14:27,250
But I jokingly say that you're the reason

522
01:14:27,250 --> 01:14:29,250
I went into labor with our first one,

523
01:14:29,958 --> 01:14:30,833
our first child,

524
01:14:30,833 --> 01:14:32,708
because you were getting ready

525
01:14:32,708 --> 01:14:34,375
to go to work that day

526
01:14:34,375 --> 01:14:36,250
and I was very pregnant

527
01:14:36,250 --> 01:14:36,916
and you couldn't put

528
01:14:36,916 --> 01:14:37,916
on your socks or shoes.

529
01:14:37,916 --> 01:14:39,583
And so I had to help you

530
01:14:39,583 --> 01:14:41,250
put on your shoes that day.

531
01:14:42,333 --> 01:14:45,541
And just, you know, the physics of being

532
01:14:45,541 --> 01:14:46,500
nine months pregnant,

533
01:14:47,166 --> 01:14:48,125
bending down, trying to

534
01:14:48,125 --> 01:14:50,083
help a man put his shoes on

535
01:14:50,375 --> 01:14:52,041
was probably enough to send me into labor

536
01:14:52,041 --> 01:14:52,875
because I went to the

537
01:14:52,875 --> 01:14:53,625
doctor and they're like,

538
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,333
yeah, you should probably stay here.

539
01:14:57,166 --> 01:14:57,708
You're welcome.

540
01:14:58,083 --> 01:14:58,666
Yeah, yeah.

541
01:14:58,958 --> 01:15:01,041
But then you poor thing, you

542
01:15:01,041 --> 01:15:03,208
had to walk with me for hours.

543
01:15:04,208 --> 01:15:05,125
You know, that's what you do

544
01:15:05,125 --> 01:15:06,500
when you're in labor, you walk.

545
01:15:07,083 --> 01:15:07,625
Yeah, you literally

546
01:15:07,625 --> 01:15:08,583
went into labor that night.

547
01:15:08,875 --> 01:15:10,333
So to make sure people go,

548
01:15:10,333 --> 01:15:11,375
and everybody that's had a kid knows it,

549
01:15:11,375 --> 01:15:12,125
like they tell you,

550
01:15:12,125 --> 01:15:13,125
like, you're not quite ready,

551
01:15:13,375 --> 01:15:14,250
do some laps. Do some laps.

552
01:15:14,875 --> 01:15:15,875
And at one point you're

553
01:15:15,875 --> 01:15:17,833
like, I gotta sit down.

554
01:15:17,875 --> 01:15:18,500
And being a good

555
01:15:18,500 --> 01:15:19,625
supportive husband, I'm like, well,

556
01:15:19,875 --> 01:15:20,791
I mean, obviously I can't

557
01:15:20,791 --> 01:15:21,750
just like send my pregnant,

558
01:15:22,083 --> 01:15:23,750
my nine, my literally giving birth

559
01:15:23,750 --> 01:15:24,708
and the next 24 hours

560
01:15:24,708 --> 01:15:26,500
wife on her own out there.

561
01:15:27,083 --> 01:15:28,833
So I mean-- You walked with me.

562
01:15:28,833 --> 01:15:29,875
You were faster than me.

563
01:15:30,541 --> 01:15:31,500
I'm dragging a leg.

564
01:15:31,791 --> 01:15:32,833
You were, you were.

565
01:15:33,375 --> 01:15:35,291
And then, quite

566
01:15:35,291 --> 01:15:37,833
literally, as I'm giving birth,

567
01:15:39,791 --> 01:15:41,041
the nurses are like, do

568
01:15:41,041 --> 01:15:42,500
you need a place to sit, hon?

569
01:15:42,500 --> 01:15:44,333
You know, they're all about

570
01:15:44,333 --> 01:15:46,458
you and taking care of you.

571
01:15:46,750 --> 01:15:46,958
Very concerned about me.

572
01:15:47,708 --> 01:15:48,250
And like making sure

573
01:15:48,250 --> 01:15:49,166
that you're comfortable.

574
01:15:49,458 --> 01:15:49,958
And I'm like--

575
01:15:50,125 --> 01:15:50,791
As I'm standing

576
01:15:50,791 --> 01:15:52,375
bedside, but trying, you know.

577
01:15:52,916 --> 01:15:53,333
Trying to--

578
01:15:53,333 --> 01:15:54,000
Standing straight up

579
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:55,041
on a hard floor though,

580
01:15:55,416 --> 01:15:57,250
is the worst. Was really, was the worst.

581
01:15:57,958 --> 01:15:58,875
For a long period of

582
01:15:58,875 --> 01:15:59,916
time in the same spot.

583
01:15:59,958 --> 01:16:02,000
Right, which the first is

584
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,708
always a very long process

585
01:16:04,958 --> 01:16:06,000
to get that baby out.

586
01:16:06,375 --> 01:16:10,541
So I just remember being like, hello.

587
01:16:11,333 --> 01:16:15,333
I totally stole your show that night.

588
01:16:15,333 --> 01:16:16,083
It was pretty funny.

589
01:16:16,333 --> 01:16:18,000
Yeah, as you gave birth.

590
01:16:18,291 --> 01:16:18,708
Yeah.

591
01:16:18,791 --> 01:16:19,583
They're more concerned

592
01:16:19,583 --> 01:16:20,708
with my pain than yours.

593
01:16:21,750 --> 01:16:22,500
Well really, because they

594
01:16:22,500 --> 01:16:24,000
see the pain that I had,

595
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:25,041
they see that all the time.

596
01:16:25,041 --> 01:16:26,125
And they're like, she's gonna be fine.

597
01:16:26,500 --> 01:16:27,500
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's probably true.

598
01:16:27,541 --> 01:16:28,041
She's fine.

599
01:16:28,583 --> 01:16:29,500
This is just the process.

600
01:16:29,791 --> 01:16:30,000
Yeah.

601
01:16:31,125 --> 01:16:33,583
But this guy, he's in a lot of pain.

602
01:16:33,875 --> 01:16:35,000
You were probably white as a sheet.

603
01:16:35,458 --> 01:16:37,791
I don't really, sadly,

604
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:38,708
I don't really remember

605
01:16:39,833 --> 01:16:42,458
your face being pale or whatever.

606
01:16:42,458 --> 01:16:43,125
I remember being very

607
01:16:43,125 --> 01:16:44,000
conscious of the fact

608
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:44,833
that you were in pain and

609
01:16:44,833 --> 01:16:45,791
that this was a sacrifice

610
01:16:46,291 --> 01:16:47,333
for you to be like--

611
01:16:48,375 --> 01:16:49,125
It's going too far,

612
01:16:49,125 --> 01:16:49,875
it's saying sacrifice.

613
01:16:49,916 --> 01:16:51,458
Well, yeah, yeah, it was very--

614
01:16:51,666 --> 01:16:53,833
I was in pain, it was uncomfortable.

615
01:16:54,166 --> 01:16:55,041
I was probably grimacing.

616
01:16:55,875 --> 01:16:58,583
I mean, you do what you do.

617
01:16:58,833 --> 01:16:59,541
Anybody else would

618
01:16:59,541 --> 01:17:00,291
have done the same thing.

619
01:17:00,625 --> 01:17:00,833
Oh yeah.

620
01:17:01,500 --> 01:17:02,250
I mean, I did get a

621
01:17:02,250 --> 01:17:03,083
medal of honor for it.

622
01:17:03,083 --> 01:17:03,916
You did, you did.

623
01:17:04,458 --> 01:17:05,791
You got that gold medal.

624
01:17:06,541 --> 01:17:07,791
Gold star, no, I didn't.

625
01:17:07,833 --> 01:17:09,708
And that's why I always

626
01:17:09,708 --> 01:17:11,125
laugh in church, right?

627
01:17:11,666 --> 01:17:13,041
When you have to stand and

628
01:17:13,041 --> 01:17:15,041
sing during the worship period.

629
01:17:15,958 --> 01:17:17,291
I'm swaying back and

630
01:17:17,291 --> 01:17:18,833
forth because I cannot stand

631
01:17:18,833 --> 01:17:20,083
straight up on a hard surface.

632
01:17:20,125 --> 01:17:21,291
Yeah, well I just thought it was

633
01:17:21,291 --> 01:17:22,708
because the spirit was moving you.

634
01:17:23,083 --> 01:17:24,291
Well, that's what I was going with this.

635
01:17:24,541 --> 01:17:26,000
I think people behind us think,

636
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:27,333
oh man, that guy is into it.

637
01:17:27,333 --> 01:17:29,500
He's got the sway going on.

638
01:17:29,791 --> 01:17:31,166
The spirit is in him.

639
01:17:31,541 --> 01:17:32,041
Praise Jesus.

640
01:17:32,166 --> 01:17:32,750
Praise Jesus.

641
01:17:33,916 --> 01:17:34,083
(laughing)

642
01:17:34,208 --> 01:17:34,458
Holy.

643
01:17:36,041 --> 01:17:36,916
Can I get a witness?

644
01:17:37,125 --> 01:17:38,541
Yeah, no, that's me

645
01:17:38,541 --> 01:17:41,000
keeping my back loose.

646
01:17:41,500 --> 01:17:43,166
Yeah, well, because it's a cement floor.

647
01:17:43,416 --> 01:17:44,791
You're just trying to keep it loose.

648
01:17:45,666 --> 01:17:46,541
People that know know.

649
01:17:46,875 --> 01:17:47,833
Oh yeah, yeah.

650
01:17:47,833 --> 01:17:49,083
You know, it's, and I

651
01:17:49,083 --> 01:17:49,958
don't want to do it again.

652
01:17:50,208 --> 01:17:52,000
It was, my day's a

653
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:53,125
bit, I guess pulling weeds

654
01:17:53,250 --> 01:17:55,750
and bending over all that

655
01:17:55,750 --> 01:17:56,666
kind of stuff in the backyard.

656
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,000
It's got to come to an

657
01:17:58,000 --> 01:17:59,041
end, I'm getting old for that.

658
01:17:59,833 --> 01:18:02,125
Yeah, or at least a shorter duration.

659
01:18:02,458 --> 01:18:03,541
It would have been helpful

660
01:18:03,541 --> 01:18:04,708
had I been able to help you.

661
01:18:05,250 --> 01:18:07,416
I don't have that bending radius yet.

662
01:18:08,250 --> 01:18:09,875
I mean, I've pulled quite a few weeds.

663
01:18:10,458 --> 01:18:11,375
I can help.

664
01:18:11,750 --> 01:18:13,333
So we could get twice the

665
01:18:13,333 --> 01:18:14,500
work done if I were to help.

666
01:18:15,958 --> 01:18:18,833
Yeah, we're both smiling at each other

667
01:18:18,875 --> 01:18:20,208
because I think

668
01:18:20,208 --> 01:18:20,916
that's one of those things

669
01:18:20,916 --> 01:18:23,041
that you believe that you help a lot in.

670
01:18:23,500 --> 01:18:25,625
No, no, no, I wouldn't say I help a lot,

671
01:18:25,625 --> 01:18:27,083
especially since we've moved here.

672
01:18:27,916 --> 01:18:29,458
I haven't done any yard

673
01:18:29,458 --> 01:18:30,750
work since we've moved here.

674
01:18:31,166 --> 01:18:32,583
It's a big property.

675
01:18:32,583 --> 01:18:33,833
So it would be a shocker

676
01:18:34,208 --> 01:18:35,750
if you actually got out there and helped.

677
01:18:35,791 --> 01:18:36,541
Yeah, I haven't

678
01:18:36,541 --> 01:18:37,708
pulled weed, you're right.

679
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:38,958
I pulled weeds though at

680
01:18:38,958 --> 01:18:40,666
our house down the street.

681
01:18:40,708 --> 01:18:44,958
Yeah, I don't, I will make sure I say

682
01:18:45,791 --> 01:18:48,125
you pull more than your

683
01:18:48,125 --> 01:18:49,500
weight at this household

684
01:18:49,750 --> 01:18:51,625
that in no way, shape or form say that.

685
01:18:52,791 --> 01:18:53,625
You're lazy about that.

686
01:18:53,958 --> 01:18:55,666
You're busy doing your

687
01:18:55,666 --> 01:18:56,541
own stuff the whole time.

688
01:18:56,958 --> 01:18:57,750
We've always been really

689
01:18:57,750 --> 01:18:58,958
good about divvying up things

690
01:18:59,041 --> 01:19:00,833
and generally speaking, that's one

691
01:19:00,833 --> 01:19:01,916
you don't have a lot of time for.

692
01:19:03,166 --> 01:19:05,000
You don't have a green thumb,

693
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:06,208
so it's nothing that you enjoy.

694
01:19:06,916 --> 01:19:07,208
No.

695
01:19:07,583 --> 01:19:09,208
But I always get a laugh at it.

696
01:19:09,208 --> 01:19:09,875
Every time you do it,

697
01:19:09,875 --> 01:19:10,708
you've done it for 20 years

698
01:19:10,708 --> 01:19:11,416
that I've known you like,

699
01:19:11,416 --> 01:19:12,666
oh yeah, let's go do weeds.

700
01:19:12,666 --> 01:19:13,250
And I'm like, okay.

701
01:19:13,583 --> 01:19:13,791
Yeah.

702
01:19:14,458 --> 01:19:16,083
I think in your mind,

703
01:19:16,083 --> 01:19:17,416
you're doing more weeding

704
01:19:17,416 --> 01:19:19,000
than you really actually are.

705
01:19:19,250 --> 01:19:20,875
Like springtime, I think I would help,

706
01:19:20,875 --> 01:19:21,416
but it's like the

707
01:19:21,416 --> 01:19:24,208
weeding is like a three season

708
01:19:24,208 --> 01:19:25,916
out of the year kind of a thing.

709
01:19:25,958 --> 01:19:26,750
You gotta keep up on it.

710
01:19:26,791 --> 01:19:27,833
And you gotta keep up on it.

711
01:19:27,833 --> 01:19:29,500
And that's where I fall off.

712
01:19:29,750 --> 01:19:30,833
Like I'm like all gung ho

713
01:19:30,958 --> 01:19:33,041
those first couple really nice weekends.

714
01:19:33,375 --> 01:19:34,000
I'm like, let's pull

715
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:35,083
weeds and let's mulch.

716
01:19:35,958 --> 01:19:37,458
And then I'm like, okay, we did that

717
01:19:37,458 --> 01:19:39,041
for two, three weekends, I'm good.

718
01:19:39,375 --> 01:19:40,125
Yeah, yeah.

719
01:19:42,041 --> 01:19:42,625
It's not one of those things

720
01:19:42,625 --> 01:19:43,833
you can just kind of be over.

721
01:19:43,833 --> 01:19:44,541
I'm over this one.

722
01:19:45,083 --> 01:19:45,541
Right, right.

723
01:19:45,958 --> 01:19:46,541
It's like, oh, I did

724
01:19:46,541 --> 01:19:49,166
laundry two months ago.

725
01:19:49,208 --> 01:19:49,750
Two months ago.

726
01:19:49,750 --> 01:19:50,333
Do it again?

727
01:19:50,541 --> 01:19:50,916
Yeah.

728
01:19:50,916 --> 01:19:51,583
Yeah, you imagine?

729
01:19:52,208 --> 01:19:52,416
Yeah.

730
01:19:52,708 --> 01:19:54,208
And that is, I mean, I'd be interested

731
01:19:54,416 --> 01:19:55,458
how our listeners kind of

732
01:19:55,458 --> 01:19:57,458
divvy up chores in the house.

733
01:19:58,041 --> 01:20:01,041
Like we have, we kind of

734
01:20:01,041 --> 01:20:02,333
have like a pretty clear line

735
01:20:02,333 --> 01:20:04,916
of like, these are the things you do.

736
01:20:04,916 --> 01:20:06,666
These are the things I usually do.

737
01:20:07,041 --> 01:20:07,583
And then there's a few

738
01:20:07,583 --> 01:20:09,250
things that we do together, but.

739
01:20:09,666 --> 01:20:10,375
And then there's things

740
01:20:10,375 --> 01:20:11,625
that we pay people to do.

741
01:20:11,625 --> 01:20:12,375
And then there's things

742
01:20:12,375 --> 01:20:13,166
that we pay people to do.

743
01:20:13,541 --> 01:20:14,791
Which gets longer and

744
01:20:14,791 --> 01:20:16,416
longer and longer every year.

745
01:20:16,416 --> 01:20:16,875
And now.

746
01:20:17,166 --> 01:20:18,541
It's gonna get even longer.

747
01:20:18,541 --> 01:20:19,791
Well, it's gonna get even longer, yeah.

748
01:20:19,791 --> 01:20:20,208
We're gonna get some

749
01:20:20,208 --> 01:20:21,583
people to weed for us.

750
01:20:21,833 --> 01:20:22,000
Fantastic.

751
01:20:24,750 --> 01:20:26,041
It's just, you just put

752
01:20:26,041 --> 01:20:27,000
more things on that list

753
01:20:27,125 --> 01:20:28,500
until you're in an old person's home

754
01:20:28,500 --> 01:20:29,375
and you're paying people to

755
01:20:29,375 --> 01:20:30,166
help you go to the bathroom.

756
01:20:30,666 --> 01:20:31,583
That's just where it ends.

757
01:20:31,958 --> 01:20:33,333
And we're about halfway down that list.

758
01:20:33,625 --> 01:20:34,083
We are.

759
01:20:35,625 --> 01:20:36,416
Oh man, if they start

760
01:20:36,416 --> 01:20:37,583
helping us go to the bathroom,

761
01:20:37,583 --> 01:20:38,416
we're in trouble.

762
01:20:38,916 --> 01:20:39,666
Yeah, I mean.

763
01:20:40,333 --> 01:20:40,583
Yeah.

764
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:42,083
Yeah, don't, yeah.

765
01:20:43,458 --> 01:20:44,166
Well, cause we've tried

766
01:20:44,166 --> 01:20:45,041
to have our kids help.

767
01:20:45,625 --> 01:20:46,208
Help with what?

768
01:20:46,541 --> 01:20:47,375
Like some of the.

769
01:20:47,375 --> 01:20:48,500
Let's be clear what we're help.

770
01:20:48,500 --> 01:20:49,458
Not going to the bathroom.

771
01:20:49,500 --> 01:20:50,416
Not going to the bathroom.

772
01:20:50,416 --> 01:20:51,708
Gosh, they've never, no.

773
01:20:52,250 --> 01:20:54,041
But like the weeding,

774
01:20:54,583 --> 01:20:56,041
wasn't it a couple of weeks ago,

775
01:20:56,083 --> 01:20:58,750
I was, where was I?

776
01:20:58,750 --> 01:21:00,291
Cause I can't really go outside.

777
01:21:00,291 --> 01:21:01,833
You were probably weeding, helping honey.

778
01:21:02,041 --> 01:21:02,833
I was, yeah.

779
01:21:02,875 --> 01:21:03,833
You know how much you like to do that?

780
01:21:04,458 --> 01:21:05,333
Such a help on it.

781
01:21:05,375 --> 01:21:05,916
Such a help.

782
01:21:06,416 --> 01:21:07,333
You had the kids doing

783
01:21:07,333 --> 01:21:08,583
hard labor outside though.

784
01:21:09,333 --> 01:21:10,458
Just a few weekends ago.

785
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:12,708
I honestly don't remember where I was.

786
01:21:12,708 --> 01:21:13,750
Well, our oldest is still

787
01:21:13,750 --> 01:21:15,375
paying off from the hood,

788
01:21:15,583 --> 01:21:16,875
the $600 hood that we had

789
01:21:16,875 --> 01:21:17,958
to replace on somebody's car.

790
01:21:18,833 --> 01:21:21,000
Quick side note story here.

791
01:21:21,750 --> 01:21:24,916
Eight months ago, our oldest is blazing

792
01:21:25,666 --> 01:21:27,000
down a little hill

793
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:27,916
right next to our house,

794
01:21:27,958 --> 01:21:30,125
literally 300 feet down the street.

795
01:21:30,583 --> 01:21:32,500
It's a hill down to a T intersection

796
01:21:33,125 --> 01:21:34,666
that to one side is a

797
01:21:34,666 --> 01:21:35,791
cul-de-sac and the other side,

798
01:21:35,791 --> 01:21:37,750
I mean, it's not heavily used.

799
01:21:37,750 --> 01:21:38,041
No, it's not.

800
01:21:38,083 --> 01:21:39,416
Especially from the cul-de-sac one.

801
01:21:39,791 --> 01:21:41,000
No, no.

802
01:21:41,041 --> 01:21:42,833
Long story short, I mean,

803
01:21:43,166 --> 01:21:44,166
when do we teach our oldest

804
01:21:44,166 --> 01:21:45,750
to look both ways in crossing the street?

805
01:21:46,083 --> 01:21:46,500
I don't know.

806
01:21:46,500 --> 01:21:47,666
I think that's been a standard rule

807
01:21:47,666 --> 01:21:49,416
since he learned to follow directions.

808
01:21:49,541 --> 01:21:50,791
Yeah, I think so.

809
01:21:50,791 --> 01:21:51,833
Most kids know that by

810
01:21:51,833 --> 01:21:52,750
the time they're walking.

811
01:21:53,125 --> 01:21:53,708
Yeah, yeah.

812
01:21:54,250 --> 01:21:56,041
Anyways, he didn't do this on a bike

813
01:21:56,291 --> 01:21:59,916
and he ran head first into a moving car.

814
01:21:59,958 --> 01:22:00,625
Yes, he did.

815
01:22:00,625 --> 01:22:01,333
On the street.

816
01:22:01,958 --> 01:22:04,583
He went over the handlebars, landed.

817
01:22:04,958 --> 01:22:06,166
He's fine, a little scuffed up.

818
01:22:06,500 --> 01:22:07,541
Hopefully learned a lesson.

819
01:22:08,083 --> 01:22:08,416
Yeah.

820
01:22:08,458 --> 01:22:11,708
But bent in the front wheel of his bike

821
01:22:11,833 --> 01:22:14,916
and same thing with this person's hood.

822
01:22:15,208 --> 01:22:20,750
Yep, so we agreed to help with the cost

823
01:22:20,750 --> 01:22:21,625
of the hood of the car.

824
01:22:23,041 --> 01:22:24,875
Of course, our youngest is traumatized.

825
01:22:25,291 --> 01:22:26,041
I don't think he's

826
01:22:26,041 --> 01:22:27,083
ridden his bike since then

827
01:22:27,083 --> 01:22:28,250
because he watched the whole thing.

828
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:33,583
That's always a very unsettling thing

829
01:22:33,625 --> 01:22:34,666
when your youngest

830
01:22:34,666 --> 01:22:36,041
comes home and is like,

831
01:22:37,291 --> 01:22:38,875
my brother just got hit by a car.

832
01:22:41,416 --> 01:22:42,875
It doesn't help the same hill.

833
01:22:43,333 --> 01:22:44,458
A year earlier, he went

834
01:22:44,458 --> 01:22:45,750
down there and his brakes--

835
01:22:46,333 --> 01:22:47,250
Oh, the little one.

836
01:22:47,291 --> 01:22:48,125
Veiled, yeah, our youngest.

837
01:22:48,791 --> 01:22:50,583
Why he was already

838
01:22:50,583 --> 01:22:51,875
traumatized by that hill.

839
01:22:52,250 --> 01:22:52,333
Yes.

840
01:22:52,375 --> 01:22:54,375
And that just took it to the next level.

841
01:22:54,791 --> 01:22:55,958
And he hasn't gotten on his bike since.

842
01:22:56,916 --> 01:22:57,958
Early's gone down that hill.

843
01:22:57,958 --> 01:22:59,500
His brakes failed going down

844
01:22:59,500 --> 01:23:00,833
and he ended up getting

845
01:23:00,833 --> 01:23:03,000
stopped by the trash cans

846
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:04,333
when we're out.

847
01:23:05,541 --> 01:23:07,416
I still think it was a sabotage deal,

848
01:23:07,791 --> 01:23:11,375
but someone cut his brake lines.

849
01:23:13,375 --> 01:23:14,333
Insurance money or something.

850
01:23:15,416 --> 01:23:16,625
They went out and he

851
01:23:16,625 --> 01:23:17,666
just went straight in,

852
01:23:17,708 --> 01:23:19,083
yelling straight into the--

853
01:23:19,083 --> 01:23:20,208
I mean, actually,

854
01:23:20,500 --> 01:23:21,416
thank God it was trash day

855
01:23:21,500 --> 01:23:23,041
because he ran into some

856
01:23:23,041 --> 01:23:25,291
big plastic trash cans.

857
01:23:25,291 --> 01:23:27,583
Trash cans instead of a brick house.

858
01:23:27,583 --> 01:23:29,208
At full speed going

859
01:23:29,208 --> 01:23:29,875
down that little hill.

860
01:23:29,875 --> 01:23:30,500
So anyways, yeah.

861
01:23:31,375 --> 01:23:33,125
And we've had some trauma in our family

862
01:23:33,125 --> 01:23:34,083
because that's where my

863
01:23:34,083 --> 01:23:35,375
scar on my chin came from.

864
01:23:35,375 --> 01:23:36,458
Most people can't see that,

865
01:23:36,750 --> 01:23:39,416
but I had 11 stitches before they knew

866
01:23:39,416 --> 01:23:40,958
how to do stitches back in the day,

867
01:23:40,958 --> 01:23:42,458
so I still have a nice scar on my chin.

868
01:23:42,500 --> 01:23:44,166
Yeah, it's a pretty wicked scar.

869
01:23:44,833 --> 01:23:46,541
And that's from riding a

870
01:23:46,541 --> 01:23:49,083
bike down a hill one more time.

871
01:23:49,541 --> 01:23:50,500
My mom's like, "Hey,

872
01:23:50,916 --> 01:23:51,666
we're going somewhere."

873
01:23:51,916 --> 01:23:53,375
And I said, "One more time, of course."

874
01:23:53,958 --> 01:23:55,666
Ran down the hill, little jump in the--

875
01:23:55,750 --> 01:23:56,916
Isn't that always how it happens?

876
01:23:56,958 --> 01:23:57,666
It's always how it happens.

877
01:23:57,916 --> 01:23:59,208
It's always the one more time.

878
01:23:59,500 --> 01:24:00,583
Yeah, I was trying to do

879
01:24:00,583 --> 01:24:02,208
a jump at the bottom of it

880
01:24:02,208 --> 01:24:02,625
because it was a nice

881
01:24:02,625 --> 01:24:03,625
little dip down there.

882
01:24:04,375 --> 01:24:06,291
Not only did I catch air,

883
01:24:06,291 --> 01:24:07,250
but I jumped off my bike

884
01:24:07,250 --> 01:24:08,666
same time, landed right on my chin.

885
01:24:10,291 --> 01:24:10,541
Wow.

886
01:24:10,958 --> 01:24:11,250
I can't remember if

887
01:24:11,250 --> 01:24:12,666
that was 11 or 14 stitches.

888
01:24:12,666 --> 01:24:13,208
I had a couple.

889
01:24:13,833 --> 01:24:15,375
Yeah, and that's a pretty wicked one.

890
01:24:17,041 --> 01:24:18,375
Our youngest has had the same--

891
01:24:18,958 --> 01:24:20,166
They've gotten better at stitches,

892
01:24:20,166 --> 01:24:21,291
because his little--

893
01:24:21,375 --> 01:24:22,041
He had half the

894
01:24:22,041 --> 01:24:23,958
stitches, but he has no scar now.

895
01:24:23,958 --> 01:24:24,416
He has no scar. Already.

896
01:24:24,916 --> 01:24:25,750
Or, I mean, it's right.

897
01:24:25,750 --> 01:24:26,708
You can't see it.

898
01:24:27,125 --> 01:24:28,041
And it's-- Yeah.

899
01:24:28,375 --> 01:24:29,416
Yeah, his was just,

900
01:24:29,833 --> 01:24:32,500
someone landed on him at daycare.

901
01:24:32,500 --> 01:24:34,458
I remember, I get a call from daycare,

902
01:24:34,458 --> 01:24:36,208
and they're like, "You're gonna have to

903
01:24:36,208 --> 01:24:37,166
come pick your son up.

904
01:24:37,166 --> 01:24:38,458
Like, he needs stitches."

905
01:24:38,458 --> 01:24:40,583
And I'm like, "Show me a pic."

906
01:24:40,583 --> 01:24:41,166
I'm thinking that

907
01:24:41,166 --> 01:24:42,500
they're overreacting, right?

908
01:24:42,541 --> 01:24:42,833
Yeah.

909
01:24:43,291 --> 01:24:43,708
I was like, "Can you

910
01:24:43,708 --> 01:24:44,500
just send me a picture?

911
01:24:44,500 --> 01:24:45,291
I'm on my way, but can

912
01:24:45,291 --> 01:24:46,208
you send me a picture?"

913
01:24:46,333 --> 01:24:46,541
Yeah.

914
01:24:47,166 --> 01:24:50,000
And it is a gash that you could measure.

915
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:52,000
And I was like, "I

916
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:53,000
will go a little faster."

917
01:24:53,916 --> 01:24:54,916
Yeah. But that one was pretty--

918
01:24:55,291 --> 01:24:56,791
He wasn't doing anything bad,

919
01:24:57,000 --> 01:24:58,666
or his friend didn't mean to hurt him.

920
01:24:58,708 --> 01:25:00,708
Yeah, straight down to the tile floor.

921
01:25:00,708 --> 01:25:02,000
Yeah, straight down to the tile floor.

922
01:25:02,625 --> 01:25:03,833
And what, four years

923
01:25:03,833 --> 01:25:04,791
old, three years old?

924
01:25:04,833 --> 01:25:05,333
Yeah, three.

925
01:25:05,666 --> 01:25:07,041
Yeah, three, three.

926
01:25:07,041 --> 01:25:07,916
He was still up there.

927
01:25:07,958 --> 01:25:08,791
He was, yeah.

928
01:25:09,291 --> 01:25:10,458
Yeah, because the poor kid,

929
01:25:10,458 --> 01:25:11,666
as he was getting stitches,

930
01:25:11,666 --> 01:25:14,166
he's like yelling, "I have a gold potty."

931
01:25:15,208 --> 01:25:15,791
And he was like

932
01:25:15,791 --> 01:25:17,000
strapped down at that time,

933
01:25:17,083 --> 01:25:18,291
and literally she was sewing,

934
01:25:18,625 --> 01:25:19,750
and we were like, "Just

935
01:25:19,750 --> 01:25:21,500
go in your pants, buddy."

936
01:25:22,125 --> 01:25:24,125
And he was, yeah, poor kiddo.

937
01:25:24,125 --> 01:25:25,041
Was that how they made him do?

938
01:25:25,208 --> 01:25:26,083
Because I wasn't there for that.

939
01:25:26,083 --> 01:25:26,666
Where was I?

940
01:25:26,666 --> 01:25:28,458
You were with the two older kids

941
01:25:28,458 --> 01:25:29,833
out in the waiting room, yeah.

942
01:25:30,375 --> 01:25:31,625
Oh, I'd got there, I showed up late.

943
01:25:31,916 --> 01:25:32,750
You showed up late. And I was with them.

944
01:25:32,958 --> 01:25:34,000
That's right. Yep, yep.

945
01:25:34,083 --> 01:25:34,958
And you were inside there.

946
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:36,750
Yeah, so I think you were just,

947
01:25:37,708 --> 01:25:38,291
you were man on the

948
01:25:38,291 --> 01:25:39,125
fort with the other two.

949
01:25:39,541 --> 01:25:40,458
I felt so bad.

950
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:42,208
Well, they've come a long ways on that.

951
01:25:42,208 --> 01:25:43,458
We were talking about, just today,

952
01:25:43,458 --> 01:25:45,166
you're looking at your incisions,

953
01:25:45,958 --> 01:25:46,416
and I don't think

954
01:25:46,416 --> 01:25:48,625
you're gonna have any scars.

955
01:25:49,875 --> 01:25:53,208
No, it'll be so, within three years,

956
01:25:53,208 --> 01:25:54,083
I will have zero scars.

957
01:25:54,333 --> 01:25:55,333
Maybe in a year, I'll have

958
01:25:55,333 --> 01:25:56,666
just these teeny tiny ones.

959
01:25:57,083 --> 01:26:00,208
I mean, the surgeon was saying,

960
01:26:00,208 --> 01:26:00,875
he's like, "I like to

961
01:26:00,875 --> 01:26:02,458
channel my inner plastic surgeon."

962
01:26:03,125 --> 01:26:05,000
And he gave me internal sutures.

963
01:26:05,666 --> 01:26:06,250
It's like, I don't even

964
01:26:06,250 --> 01:26:08,208
have external stitches.

965
01:26:09,291 --> 01:26:12,291
So this is one of those things, again,

966
01:26:12,541 --> 01:26:13,750
we're getting to that age where,

967
01:26:14,666 --> 01:26:15,875
and I've been there for a while now,

968
01:26:15,875 --> 01:26:16,833
it's like, when I was younger.

969
01:26:18,625 --> 01:26:18,666
(laughing)

970
01:26:18,666 --> 01:26:19,666
This could be a segment,

971
01:26:19,666 --> 01:26:20,875
this could be a segment of the show,

972
01:26:20,875 --> 01:26:22,458
recurring one, like, "When I was younger,

973
01:26:22,458 --> 01:26:23,625
"we didn't have this, we did this."

974
01:26:24,125 --> 01:26:26,125
But does anybody get staples anymore?

975
01:26:26,625 --> 01:26:27,000
Do you know?

976
01:26:27,791 --> 01:26:28,416
I think so.

977
01:26:28,875 --> 01:26:30,333
People do get staples, okay.

978
01:26:30,333 --> 01:26:32,291
Well, I mean, I think so.

979
01:26:33,083 --> 01:26:33,833
Because I've got all these

980
01:26:33,833 --> 01:26:35,458
scars on my lower legs, right?

981
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,750
That's what ended my college career.

982
01:26:39,375 --> 01:26:40,291
I call it a career,

983
01:26:40,291 --> 01:26:41,000
but, you know, I mean,

984
01:26:42,041 --> 01:26:43,041
it ended my college

985
01:26:43,041 --> 01:26:44,291
playing basketball days.

986
01:26:44,375 --> 01:26:45,000
Yeah, yeah.

987
01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,833
Was I had surgeries

988
01:26:47,833 --> 01:26:49,166
on both my lower legs.

989
01:26:49,416 --> 01:26:50,500
One of them, a nerve was

990
01:26:50,500 --> 01:26:51,958
cut, and there was an issue,

991
01:26:51,958 --> 01:26:53,125
and there was a long-standing medical

992
01:26:53,125 --> 01:26:54,958
follow-up after that.

993
01:26:54,958 --> 01:26:55,958
But because of that, and there was

994
01:26:55,958 --> 01:26:56,958
exploratory surgeries,

995
01:26:56,958 --> 01:26:57,583
they'd go and reopen

996
01:26:57,583 --> 01:26:58,750
it multiple times, but--

997
01:26:58,875 --> 01:26:59,666
It makes me knee hurt

998
01:26:59,666 --> 01:27:00,583
to even talk about--

999
01:27:00,625 --> 01:27:02,750
I remember when they opened it up

1000
01:27:03,375 --> 01:27:04,541
for the big exploratory

1001
01:27:04,541 --> 01:27:05,750
one, trying to fix the nerve

1002
01:27:06,500 --> 01:27:07,666
in my lower leg,

1003
01:27:08,916 --> 01:27:14,041
they used staples to close it up,

1004
01:27:14,458 --> 01:27:15,291
and I had like 20

1005
01:27:15,291 --> 01:27:17,458
staples going down my leg,

1006
01:27:17,458 --> 01:27:19,708
and it's like, I got a big

1007
01:27:19,708 --> 01:27:20,833
old nasty scar from that now.

1008
01:27:20,833 --> 01:27:21,541
You do, mm-hmm.

1009
01:27:21,958 --> 01:27:23,666
I mean, do they not think

1010
01:27:23,666 --> 01:27:24,666
of that kind of thing then?

1011
01:27:25,125 --> 01:27:26,708
Or is this, because it was a different,

1012
01:27:27,375 --> 01:27:28,625
no, I was the same doctor then.

1013
01:27:28,958 --> 01:27:30,416
I ended up suing this guy, I mean,

1014
01:27:30,416 --> 01:27:31,250
it's not like I didn't

1015
01:27:31,250 --> 01:27:32,208
make any money off of it.

1016
01:27:32,666 --> 01:27:34,333
I did, but such a minimal

1017
01:27:34,333 --> 01:27:35,291
amount that it was ridiculous.

1018
01:27:36,750 --> 01:27:39,875
For losing my basketball scholarship,

1019
01:27:40,333 --> 01:27:41,333
I never played again

1020
01:27:41,333 --> 01:27:43,333
after that at a high level.

1021
01:27:43,833 --> 01:27:45,250
At least, organized.

1022
01:27:46,333 --> 01:27:48,500
I have permanent nerve damage down there.

1023
01:27:49,583 --> 01:27:51,500
And now I have a nice scar from it too.

1024
01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:53,375
That was a big tangent there too.

1025
01:27:53,958 --> 01:27:54,583
When I was young,

1026
01:27:55,333 --> 01:27:56,333
they still used staples,

1027
01:27:57,333 --> 01:27:58,750
and they didn't care about cosmetic,

1028
01:27:59,208 --> 01:28:00,375
not having a big old scar,

1029
01:28:00,375 --> 01:28:01,166
because I've got scars

1030
01:28:01,166 --> 01:28:04,041
all over from the few times

1031
01:28:04,125 --> 01:28:07,708
I've had either staples or stitches.

1032
01:28:08,083 --> 01:28:09,000
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

1033
01:28:10,125 --> 01:28:10,958
And I don't know, I think

1034
01:28:10,958 --> 01:28:12,791
they do use staples sometimes,

1035
01:28:12,791 --> 01:28:14,083
but I think there is,

1036
01:28:15,250 --> 01:28:17,750
medicine has progressed to a point

1037
01:28:17,750 --> 01:28:19,333
that they don't always have to.

1038
01:28:19,333 --> 01:28:20,875
I mean, I remember even

1039
01:28:20,875 --> 01:28:23,000
when our youngest cut his chin,

1040
01:28:23,458 --> 01:28:26,125
it was such a clean cut that it was like,

1041
01:28:26,125 --> 01:28:26,833
well, maybe they can

1042
01:28:26,833 --> 01:28:28,291
glue that close, you know?

1043
01:28:28,875 --> 01:28:29,833
And I was too wide.

1044
01:28:30,833 --> 01:28:34,750
(laughs) But yeah, it's amazing what they do.

1045
01:28:34,916 --> 01:28:37,000
Yeah. Like, I don't know.

1046
01:28:38,916 --> 01:28:40,791
I mean, I know my sister

1047
01:28:40,791 --> 01:28:42,750
had similar surgery to me,

1048
01:28:42,750 --> 01:28:44,625
and she has a massive scar on her knee.

1049
01:28:44,666 --> 01:28:45,833
I was just gonna bring that up, yeah.

1050
01:28:46,166 --> 01:28:47,000
I don't know what

1051
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,000
extent of her injury was,

1052
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:50,541
but I know yours, you know, you checked

1053
01:28:50,541 --> 01:28:51,416
at least three boxes

1054
01:28:51,625 --> 01:28:52,416
of things that had to be

1055
01:28:52,416 --> 01:28:53,541
fixed while they were in there.

1056
01:28:53,583 --> 01:28:55,916
Yeah, yeah, and she had two,

1057
01:28:56,708 --> 01:28:58,958
but I mean, she has a big old scar.

1058
01:28:58,958 --> 01:29:00,291
Yeah, they opened her up. Mm-hmm.

1059
01:29:00,375 --> 01:29:02,875
So, five little incisions for you.

1060
01:29:03,250 --> 01:29:04,166
Yeah, and again, I

1061
01:29:04,166 --> 01:29:05,416
don't know how much more

1062
01:29:05,541 --> 01:29:07,083
or less damage, but

1063
01:29:07,083 --> 01:29:09,250
still, it's just crazy how,

1064
01:29:09,875 --> 01:29:10,500
well, and even when I

1065
01:29:10,500 --> 01:29:12,000
was talking to someone

1066
01:29:12,166 --> 01:29:15,333
about this surgery, this person told me

1067
01:29:15,333 --> 01:29:16,000
it was the worst pain

1068
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:17,250
she's ever had in her whole life.

1069
01:29:17,250 --> 01:29:17,708
She's like, "I've had

1070
01:29:17,708 --> 01:29:18,458
multiple surgeries."

1071
01:29:18,833 --> 01:29:21,000
So for the record, don't do this.

1072
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:21,500
Don't do this.

1073
01:29:21,541 --> 01:29:22,416
This person still

1074
01:29:22,416 --> 01:29:23,500
thinks she's in the right.

1075
01:29:23,500 --> 01:29:24,291
Like, I just wanted to

1076
01:29:24,291 --> 01:29:25,458
bring you back to reality.

1077
01:29:25,750 --> 01:29:27,291
Yeah, because I was like, "Oh, you know,

1078
01:29:27,291 --> 01:29:28,333
"I'll probably, I'll

1079
01:29:28,333 --> 01:29:29,625
be fine, it's all good."

1080
01:29:30,125 --> 01:29:31,125
Part of it was I kept saying

1081
01:29:31,125 --> 01:29:32,458
these things for my own self

1082
01:29:32,583 --> 01:29:33,958
because-- You were staying positive.

1083
01:29:33,958 --> 01:29:34,458
I was trying to stay

1084
01:29:34,458 --> 01:29:35,916
positive and because--

1085
01:29:36,333 --> 01:29:37,916
Try not to freak yourself out.

1086
01:29:38,125 --> 01:29:39,958
Right, like, because I don't know.

1087
01:29:39,958 --> 01:29:42,833
It's scary enough going into surgery,

1088
01:29:43,208 --> 01:29:44,875
even if it is a routine surgery.

1089
01:29:45,375 --> 01:29:46,875
There's a lot of unknowns, and so I was,

1090
01:29:47,250 --> 01:29:48,875
I kept being positive

1091
01:29:48,875 --> 01:29:51,666
for my own self to be like,

1092
01:29:51,666 --> 01:29:53,208
"I got this, I can do this."

1093
01:29:53,208 --> 01:29:54,208
She's like, "It was the

1094
01:29:54,208 --> 01:29:55,500
worst pain I've ever had.

1095
01:29:55,500 --> 01:29:56,875
"I've had multiple surgeries.

1096
01:29:56,875 --> 01:29:58,333
"I've never felt anything this bad."

1097
01:29:59,416 --> 01:30:00,625
And I was like, "What?"

1098
01:30:00,625 --> 01:30:01,500
And I did ask her at

1099
01:30:01,500 --> 01:30:02,083
the time, I was like,

1100
01:30:02,083 --> 01:30:03,666
"When did you have this done?"

1101
01:30:04,625 --> 01:30:05,416
She was like, "2008."

1102
01:30:06,250 --> 01:30:08,208
And I was like, "Okay, that

1103
01:30:08,208 --> 01:30:09,541
was a long time ago, 2008."

1104
01:30:10,708 --> 01:30:11,375
Believe it or not, it

1105
01:30:11,375 --> 01:30:12,791
was a really long time ago.

1106
01:30:13,500 --> 01:30:14,666
And so I'm like,

1107
01:30:14,666 --> 01:30:16,333
"Well, medicine's probably

1108
01:30:16,333 --> 01:30:18,666
"come a long way, I hope."

1109
01:30:19,833 --> 01:30:21,416
Yeah, and that's bad, but

1110
01:30:21,416 --> 01:30:23,166
I think her justification,

1111
01:30:23,750 --> 01:30:25,500
even after the fact, that's

1112
01:30:25,500 --> 01:30:27,416
almost worse of what she said.

1113
01:30:27,458 --> 01:30:28,833
I know. Tell them what she said.

1114
01:30:29,666 --> 01:30:30,958
She's like, "You were

1115
01:30:30,958 --> 01:30:32,625
just being so positive

1116
01:30:32,791 --> 01:30:36,250
"and so blase about it, I just wanted you

1117
01:30:36,250 --> 01:30:37,583
"to have a dose of reality."

1118
01:30:38,625 --> 01:30:41,041
And who gave her, who,

1119
01:30:41,083 --> 01:30:42,625
I mean, who named her

1120
01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:44,500
the reality queen of America?

1121
01:30:44,791 --> 01:30:46,125
I just need to make sure everybody's feet

1122
01:30:46,125 --> 01:30:47,000
are on the ground here.

1123
01:30:47,458 --> 01:30:49,125
Don't you dare have a positive attitude

1124
01:30:49,125 --> 01:30:49,916
going to something that

1125
01:30:49,916 --> 01:30:51,541
could just ruin your life.

1126
01:30:52,291 --> 01:30:53,000
What if they cut an

1127
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:54,125
artery and you lose a leg?

1128
01:30:55,000 --> 01:30:55,583
It's happened.

1129
01:30:56,083 --> 01:30:57,666
I mean, you got a name for that lady.

1130
01:30:58,916 --> 01:30:59,916
Aww. Aww.

1131
01:31:01,833 --> 01:31:02,916
Debbie Downer.

1132
01:31:04,333 --> 01:31:06,666
Jeez, I mean, I know.

1133
01:31:06,666 --> 01:31:06,875
It's just--

1134
01:31:07,708 --> 01:31:09,166
That bugged me,

1135
01:31:09,166 --> 01:31:10,250
though, that somebody took it

1136
01:31:10,250 --> 01:31:12,333
upon themselves to be like, "You're just

1137
01:31:12,333 --> 01:31:13,125
being too positive."

1138
01:31:13,416 --> 01:31:13,833
Yeah.

1139
01:31:14,250 --> 01:31:16,125
"I need to give you a dose of reality,

1140
01:31:16,125 --> 01:31:17,208
"bring you back down to the--"

1141
01:31:17,625 --> 01:31:19,500
Yeah, because it honestly sent me to--

1142
01:31:20,333 --> 01:31:21,541
Because it changed the way you thought.

1143
01:31:21,541 --> 01:31:22,875
It made you nervous again.

1144
01:31:22,916 --> 01:31:24,250
I was terrified.

1145
01:31:24,541 --> 01:31:25,791
In that instant, my

1146
01:31:25,791 --> 01:31:28,000
instinct was to call and cancel

1147
01:31:28,291 --> 01:31:30,541
and make up some excuse to cancel.

1148
01:31:30,541 --> 01:31:33,833
Now, logic pulled through and I was like,

1149
01:31:33,833 --> 01:31:35,375
"You can't do that.

1150
01:31:35,416 --> 01:31:36,958
"That's absolutely stupid."

1151
01:31:37,416 --> 01:31:40,583
But for that split second, I wanted,

1152
01:31:41,416 --> 01:31:43,916
my reaction was to run and avoid.

1153
01:31:44,625 --> 01:31:45,708
Because it scared me.

1154
01:31:46,541 --> 01:31:50,625
But anyway, it is what it is.

1155
01:31:50,625 --> 01:31:53,083
But I mean, yeah, I think the injuries

1156
01:31:53,375 --> 01:31:55,166
have just, I don't

1157
01:31:55,166 --> 01:31:56,125
know, hopefully we can,

1158
01:31:56,375 --> 01:31:57,000
hopefully your back

1159
01:31:57,000 --> 01:31:58,958
isn't, it doesn't seem to be

1160
01:31:59,208 --> 01:32:01,875
one of those high watermark,

1161
01:32:02,208 --> 01:32:04,000
super, super horrible ones yet.

1162
01:32:04,791 --> 01:32:06,375
But you're definitely uncomfortable.

1163
01:32:07,458 --> 01:32:08,041
Yeah, I'm uncomfortable.

1164
01:32:08,250 --> 01:32:09,583
It's one of those things where, I mean,

1165
01:32:10,208 --> 01:32:11,000
it's gonna go one way

1166
01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:12,208
or the other, right?

1167
01:32:12,208 --> 01:32:13,333
And sometimes you just don't know.

1168
01:32:13,333 --> 01:32:14,416
Sometimes another little

1169
01:32:14,416 --> 01:32:15,750
tweak just sends it over the edge

1170
01:32:15,750 --> 01:32:18,125
and then it's two weeks till

1171
01:32:18,125 --> 01:32:19,416
your back to moving normal.

1172
01:32:20,583 --> 01:32:23,500
So I will ask though, what is worse,

1173
01:32:24,666 --> 01:32:26,375
back spasms or kidney stones?

1174
01:32:27,250 --> 01:32:27,541
Kidney stones.

1175
01:32:28,041 --> 01:32:28,750
Yeah, okay.

1176
01:32:29,083 --> 01:32:30,083
Kidney stones are the worst.

1177
01:32:30,541 --> 01:32:32,916
I mean, the last time I had them,

1178
01:32:32,916 --> 01:32:34,916
I think I said to you in one of those,

1179
01:32:34,916 --> 01:32:36,208
and it was like, it took me

1180
01:32:36,208 --> 01:32:38,541
four days to pass these ones.

1181
01:32:39,250 --> 01:32:40,750
And I remember saying like,

1182
01:32:40,750 --> 01:32:42,208
I can understand why people just wanna,

1183
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:44,791
if you're in the worst

1184
01:32:44,791 --> 01:32:46,041
pain you've ever been in

1185
01:32:46,333 --> 01:32:47,666
for an extended period of time,

1186
01:32:48,375 --> 01:32:49,541
I literally said, I can see

1187
01:32:49,541 --> 01:32:50,833
how people might just say,

1188
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:51,875
I'll call it a day.

1189
01:32:52,500 --> 01:32:53,541
Like, it's been a good life.

1190
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:55,750
And I wasn't ready to call it a day then,

1191
01:32:55,750 --> 01:32:56,625
but I mean, because I

1192
01:32:56,625 --> 01:32:57,500
knew this would pass.

1193
01:32:58,291 --> 01:32:59,500
But at that moment I was like,

1194
01:32:59,500 --> 01:33:00,833
I can see living in

1195
01:33:00,833 --> 01:33:02,416
that kind of pain for,

1196
01:33:02,625 --> 01:33:03,333
and at that point it

1197
01:33:03,333 --> 01:33:04,208
had just been four days.

1198
01:33:04,208 --> 01:33:05,000
It had been four days.

1199
01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:06,416
So I mean, I was short of 100 hours

1200
01:33:06,416 --> 01:33:09,041
of just pure, exhausting pain.

1201
01:33:09,500 --> 01:33:10,208
That was rolling.

1202
01:33:10,666 --> 01:33:11,750
Don't get me wrong, it was rolling,

1203
01:33:12,708 --> 01:33:13,750
but it was rolling, I mean.

1204
01:33:14,208 --> 01:33:15,541
It was, I mean, it was crippling.

1205
01:33:15,583 --> 01:33:16,083
We saw it.

1206
01:33:16,083 --> 01:33:17,375
It was crippling, yeah.

1207
01:33:17,416 --> 01:33:20,125
So no, back spasms, I don't wanna pick,

1208
01:33:20,125 --> 01:33:20,708
I don't wanna have to

1209
01:33:20,708 --> 01:33:21,791
pick one or the other, but.

1210
01:33:22,125 --> 01:33:22,750
I was just curious.

1211
01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:24,458
Not even close.

1212
01:33:24,875 --> 01:33:25,125
I mean, they're

1213
01:33:25,125 --> 01:33:26,125
terrible, don't get me wrong.

1214
01:33:26,166 --> 01:33:26,875
Both are awful.

1215
01:33:28,666 --> 01:33:29,958
I mean, back spasms, you know,

1216
01:33:29,958 --> 01:33:31,583
on a level of nine to 10 are a 10.

1217
01:33:31,958 --> 01:33:32,208
Yeah.

1218
01:33:32,833 --> 01:33:34,000
Kidney stones are a thousand.

1219
01:33:34,291 --> 01:33:35,041
A thousand, yeah.

1220
01:33:35,083 --> 01:33:35,875
I wouldn't want either.

1221
01:33:36,666 --> 01:33:37,833
Or wish them on my, well,

1222
01:33:37,833 --> 01:33:38,458
I probably would wish them

1223
01:33:38,458 --> 01:33:39,125
on my worst enemies.

1224
01:33:40,166 --> 01:33:41,083
Only the worst of the

1225
01:33:41,083 --> 01:33:42,041
worst enemies though.

1226
01:33:42,041 --> 01:33:42,791
Worst of the worst.

1227
01:33:43,791 --> 01:33:44,541
The worst of the worst.

1228
01:33:45,416 --> 01:33:46,000
We were talking about

1229
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:46,750
things that we don't,

1230
01:33:46,791 --> 01:33:48,541
that we don't have today.

1231
01:33:48,708 --> 01:33:48,958
Yeah.

1232
01:33:48,958 --> 01:33:50,500
That we do differently

1233
01:33:50,500 --> 01:33:51,291
when we were younger.

1234
01:33:51,958 --> 01:33:52,458
And one of those things

1235
01:33:52,458 --> 01:33:54,000
that we had just this week,

1236
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:55,500
which was scary for us,

1237
01:33:55,875 --> 01:33:57,166
was there was a

1238
01:33:57,166 --> 01:33:59,041
lockdown at one of our schools.

1239
01:33:59,041 --> 01:33:59,833
Yep, yep.

1240
01:34:00,416 --> 01:34:01,583
And we didn't, you know, I

1241
01:34:01,583 --> 01:34:02,375
didn't even know about it.

1242
01:34:02,375 --> 01:34:03,875
I didn't even get the

1243
01:34:03,875 --> 01:34:05,375
email or the notification.

1244
01:34:05,666 --> 01:34:06,541
You did, so at least you

1245
01:34:06,541 --> 01:34:07,666
knew about it real time.

1246
01:34:07,791 --> 01:34:09,500
I did, although I think the,

1247
01:34:09,875 --> 01:34:10,500
I didn't really think

1248
01:34:10,500 --> 01:34:11,875
through it all the way

1249
01:34:12,041 --> 01:34:12,791
because it said, you

1250
01:34:12,791 --> 01:34:14,166
know, this type of lockdown,

1251
01:34:14,375 --> 01:34:15,625
here there was activity in the area

1252
01:34:15,791 --> 01:34:17,291
is how they phrased it in the email.

1253
01:34:17,916 --> 01:34:18,000
Okay.

1254
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:19,666
And so I'm like, okay,

1255
01:34:19,666 --> 01:34:20,791
nothing is at the school.

1256
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:21,916
And that, you know,

1257
01:34:22,916 --> 01:34:23,875
classrooms are teaching

1258
01:34:23,875 --> 01:34:25,583
and everything is resuming as normal.

1259
01:34:25,583 --> 01:34:26,333
It's just, we don't let

1260
01:34:26,333 --> 01:34:27,458
anyone in or out of the school.

1261
01:34:27,833 --> 01:34:28,000
Yeah.

1262
01:34:28,916 --> 01:34:31,541
What I failed to connect the dots to

1263
01:34:31,541 --> 01:34:32,833
is that our daughter

1264
01:34:32,833 --> 01:34:35,250
was outside at athletics.

1265
01:34:35,708 --> 01:34:35,875
Yeah.

1266
01:34:36,958 --> 01:34:39,166
And so she was outside the school.

1267
01:34:40,666 --> 01:34:42,125
Potentially near to the

1268
01:34:42,125 --> 01:34:43,750
perimeter of where it was.

1269
01:34:43,791 --> 01:34:44,500
Wherever it was.

1270
01:34:45,250 --> 01:34:46,333
Yeah, and I also

1271
01:34:46,333 --> 01:34:48,666
failed to appreciate that

1272
01:34:49,166 --> 01:34:50,166
the coaches and

1273
01:34:50,166 --> 01:34:51,333
teachers that were outside

1274
01:34:51,333 --> 01:34:52,083
with the children at

1275
01:34:52,083 --> 01:34:54,750
athletics probably had less context

1276
01:34:55,125 --> 01:34:56,458
than those that were in the school.

1277
01:34:56,875 --> 01:34:57,083
Yeah.

1278
01:34:57,125 --> 01:34:58,000
Because there was

1279
01:34:58,000 --> 01:34:59,000
something going on the intercom

1280
01:34:59,000 --> 01:34:59,500
or something.

1281
01:35:00,375 --> 01:35:03,166
And so I think there was, not I think,

1282
01:35:03,166 --> 01:35:05,000
I know based on my daughter's,

1283
01:35:05,791 --> 01:35:07,416
just based on her explanation

1284
01:35:07,416 --> 01:35:10,333
that it was chaotic and scary.

1285
01:35:10,583 --> 01:35:11,166
Well, she said that

1286
01:35:11,166 --> 01:35:13,333
they're yelling, run, run.

1287
01:35:13,708 --> 01:35:14,166
They're trying to get

1288
01:35:14,166 --> 01:35:15,583
them inside the school,

1289
01:35:15,583 --> 01:35:16,458
into the locker rooms.

1290
01:35:16,875 --> 01:35:18,416
When somebody says that, I mean,

1291
01:35:18,916 --> 01:35:19,791
literally it was on the

1292
01:35:19,791 --> 01:35:21,000
national news, I think,

1293
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:21,875
but just two weeks ago,

1294
01:35:21,875 --> 01:35:22,791
some of our daughter's friends

1295
01:35:22,791 --> 01:35:24,125
were at a cheerleading competition

1296
01:35:24,416 --> 01:35:27,625
where two dads got into a fight

1297
01:35:27,625 --> 01:35:28,583
and were yelling back and

1298
01:35:28,583 --> 01:35:30,458
forth and something fell.

1299
01:35:31,166 --> 01:35:31,500
Right.

1300
01:35:31,541 --> 01:35:31,916
In there.

1301
01:35:31,916 --> 01:35:32,208
Right.

1302
01:35:32,208 --> 01:35:33,000
And when it hit the

1303
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:34,083
ground inside this gym,

1304
01:35:34,083 --> 01:35:35,000
or a cheerleader,

1305
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,166
gymnasium, wherever they were at,

1306
01:35:36,500 --> 01:35:37,791
it sounded like gunshots.

1307
01:35:38,291 --> 01:35:39,875
It wasn't, but it sounded like it.

1308
01:35:40,333 --> 01:35:40,958
And there was stuff,

1309
01:35:40,958 --> 01:35:42,041
social media was on the news,

1310
01:35:42,125 --> 01:35:43,750
all of our people ran for their lives.

1311
01:35:43,791 --> 01:35:44,000
Yep.

1312
01:35:44,833 --> 01:35:47,000
And I just, the different, my point was,

1313
01:35:47,291 --> 01:35:48,916
we grew up in an age where,

1314
01:35:48,916 --> 01:35:50,625
we did not grow up in an age

1315
01:35:50,833 --> 01:35:52,875
where, at least where I lived,

1316
01:35:53,791 --> 01:35:54,791
where that was

1317
01:35:54,791 --> 01:35:56,000
something we had to live through

1318
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:57,791
or worry about, code reds.

1319
01:35:57,791 --> 01:35:58,916
And we tell our kids, I

1320
01:35:58,916 --> 01:36:00,791
mean, how sad and scary

1321
01:36:00,791 --> 01:36:01,750
is that you have to tell our kids,

1322
01:36:01,750 --> 01:36:03,041
like, if it's true, you're in a code red,

1323
01:36:03,666 --> 01:36:05,000
like, I'm sorry, but you need to be in

1324
01:36:05,000 --> 01:36:06,708
the back of the room,

1325
01:36:06,916 --> 01:36:08,750
don't be in the front row, play dead.

1326
01:36:09,375 --> 01:36:10,833
You need to text me.

1327
01:36:10,875 --> 01:36:12,625
If you can do it safely, quietly,

1328
01:36:12,625 --> 01:36:13,583
put your phone, you know what I mean?

1329
01:36:13,875 --> 01:36:14,791
Know that dad's coming.

1330
01:36:15,000 --> 01:36:15,791
I mean, after we saw what

1331
01:36:15,791 --> 01:36:16,875
happens in some of these places,

1332
01:36:17,375 --> 01:36:19,000
in Yuvaldi, in Texas, stuff like that,

1333
01:36:19,416 --> 01:36:21,458
if these first responders

1334
01:36:21,458 --> 01:36:22,958
aren't gonna take it serious,

1335
01:36:23,250 --> 01:36:24,041
and I mean, I get it.

1336
01:36:24,958 --> 01:36:25,500
I don't wanna see

1337
01:36:25,500 --> 01:36:26,416
anybody lose their lives.

1338
01:36:26,458 --> 01:36:26,625
No.

1339
01:36:27,166 --> 01:36:29,250
But if that's your chosen profession,

1340
01:36:29,791 --> 01:36:30,750
and you're sworn to

1341
01:36:30,750 --> 01:36:33,000
protect, you better protect.

1342
01:36:33,458 --> 01:36:33,750
Yeah.

1343
01:36:33,833 --> 01:36:34,750
At risk, because you

1344
01:36:34,750 --> 01:36:35,958
know that's part of the job.

1345
01:36:36,208 --> 01:36:36,458
Yeah.

1346
01:36:36,500 --> 01:36:37,583
But I told my kids, you

1347
01:36:37,583 --> 01:36:39,208
know, like, know I'm coming.

1348
01:36:39,750 --> 01:36:40,541
Oh, yeah.

1349
01:36:40,833 --> 01:36:42,000
I'm gearing up and I'm coming.

1350
01:36:42,208 --> 01:36:42,958
I will get you.

1351
01:36:43,458 --> 01:36:44,708
Well, and I think some parents did.

1352
01:36:46,041 --> 01:36:47,166
And that's why I didn't know about it.

1353
01:36:47,166 --> 01:36:48,333
So I was a little mad after the fact

1354
01:36:48,333 --> 01:36:49,500
that I didn't even know about it.

1355
01:36:49,500 --> 01:36:53,291
Yeah, and I, because it was, you know,

1356
01:36:53,291 --> 01:36:55,500
it seemed innocuous, and

1357
01:36:55,500 --> 01:36:57,125
that it was precautionary,

1358
01:36:57,541 --> 01:36:58,666
and me not making the

1359
01:36:58,666 --> 01:36:59,583
connection, like, hey,

1360
01:37:00,208 --> 01:37:01,208
you know, she's outside.

1361
01:37:01,458 --> 01:37:03,541
Still think of text to me in the future.

1362
01:37:03,625 --> 01:37:05,000
Yeah, is like, hey, did you--

1363
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:05,916
Just so I can be, at

1364
01:37:05,916 --> 01:37:07,208
least I can stay on top of it.

1365
01:37:07,416 --> 01:37:09,208
My schedule, Megan's back to

1366
01:37:09,208 --> 01:37:10,208
back to back to back to back.

1367
01:37:10,208 --> 01:37:12,250
You are a very important

1368
01:37:12,250 --> 01:37:13,375
person when it comes to work.

1369
01:37:14,125 --> 01:37:14,166
So--

1370
01:37:14,208 --> 01:37:15,416
No, I just have a lot of meetings.

1371
01:37:15,583 --> 01:37:16,166
Yeah.

1372
01:37:16,208 --> 01:37:17,791
That's my job, to do meetings.

1373
01:37:18,125 --> 01:37:21,125
Yeah, and, but you've got to,

1374
01:37:21,125 --> 01:37:22,208
when it comes to something like that,

1375
01:37:23,250 --> 01:37:24,916
you gotta at least let me know, right?

1376
01:37:25,250 --> 01:37:26,541
I'm sorry that you're meeting.

1377
01:37:26,541 --> 01:37:27,125
I know you guys are

1378
01:37:27,125 --> 01:37:28,583
solving the world's problems

1379
01:37:28,583 --> 01:37:30,000
in that particular meeting,

1380
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:32,041
but our kids are way

1381
01:37:32,041 --> 01:37:33,000
more important than that.

1382
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:33,208
Yeah.

1383
01:37:33,833 --> 01:37:34,166
Yeah, and it--

1384
01:37:34,166 --> 01:37:35,583
So I've gotta know about that.

1385
01:37:35,916 --> 01:37:36,125
Yeah.

1386
01:37:37,750 --> 01:37:38,750
So that I can stay on top of it,

1387
01:37:38,750 --> 01:37:39,750
because I just have a more flexible

1388
01:37:39,750 --> 01:37:40,625
schedule than you do.

1389
01:37:41,208 --> 01:37:42,208
I can look it up, I

1390
01:37:42,208 --> 01:37:43,000
can, you know what I mean?

1391
01:37:43,041 --> 01:37:43,875
Yeah, yeah.

1392
01:37:43,958 --> 01:37:44,625
If it's really that

1393
01:37:44,625 --> 01:37:45,833
bad, I'll drive over there.

1394
01:37:45,833 --> 01:37:46,500
When I looked it up and

1395
01:37:46,500 --> 01:37:47,458
there was nothing, I mean--

1396
01:37:48,041 --> 01:37:48,916
There's nothing all day long

1397
01:37:48,916 --> 01:37:50,125
once I found out about it.

1398
01:37:50,458 --> 01:37:51,625
And there was like, there was something

1399
01:37:51,625 --> 01:37:53,041
on Keller neighborly--

1400
01:37:53,791 --> 01:37:55,166
There was a bomb threat is what it was.

1401
01:37:55,208 --> 01:37:55,458
Yeah, there was a bomb.

1402
01:37:55,458 --> 01:37:56,625
At the church next to it.

1403
01:37:56,625 --> 01:37:58,875
But, you know, to bring this back around

1404
01:37:58,875 --> 01:38:00,041
to more silly things,

1405
01:38:00,041 --> 01:38:00,583
I mean, like the things

1406
01:38:00,583 --> 01:38:02,250
that we got evacuated for

1407
01:38:02,250 --> 01:38:03,458
school, it was never for that.

1408
01:38:03,458 --> 01:38:04,333
I don't ever, I mean,

1409
01:38:04,333 --> 01:38:05,875
Columbine obviously was the first time

1410
01:38:05,958 --> 01:38:06,833
and that was well after.

1411
01:38:07,291 --> 01:38:08,250
Columbine was crazy too,

1412
01:38:08,250 --> 01:38:09,666
because it was in Colorado

1413
01:38:09,666 --> 01:38:11,041
and I had played basketball

1414
01:38:11,041 --> 01:38:12,458
in that school many times.

1415
01:38:12,500 --> 01:38:13,250
That's crazy to me.

1416
01:38:13,250 --> 01:38:13,666
So I had been to that

1417
01:38:13,666 --> 01:38:15,750
school, obviously not my school,

1418
01:38:15,750 --> 01:38:17,333
but I had played basketball up there.

1419
01:38:17,333 --> 01:38:18,125
And so I was aware of the

1420
01:38:18,125 --> 01:38:19,083
school, I had been there.

1421
01:38:19,208 --> 01:38:19,500
Yeah.

1422
01:38:19,625 --> 01:38:20,208
And that was where the

1423
01:38:20,208 --> 01:38:21,041
first big one happened,

1424
01:38:21,041 --> 01:38:21,916
school shooting happened.

1425
01:38:22,333 --> 01:38:22,500
Yeah.

1426
01:38:22,833 --> 01:38:26,250
But that's just, that's a new world thing

1427
01:38:26,500 --> 01:38:28,083
that you gotta find a way to fix.

1428
01:38:28,375 --> 01:38:29,500
But, you know, when we

1429
01:38:29,500 --> 01:38:31,083
were younger, you know,

1430
01:38:31,083 --> 01:38:32,625
we got let out for much

1431
01:38:32,625 --> 01:38:33,791
stupor stuff, you know,

1432
01:38:33,833 --> 01:38:35,708
we read evacuate or whatever.

1433
01:38:36,041 --> 01:38:37,958
I remember one time in science class,

1434
01:38:38,333 --> 01:38:39,875
I was actually the one

1435
01:38:39,875 --> 01:38:40,708
that caused the school

1436
01:38:40,708 --> 01:38:43,083
to evacuate accidentally.

1437
01:38:44,125 --> 01:38:47,041
Me and I think his name was Paul,

1438
01:38:47,666 --> 01:38:48,333
and I will all leave

1439
01:38:48,333 --> 01:38:49,416
last names out of this.

1440
01:38:50,875 --> 01:38:50,916
(laughing)

1441
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:52,458
But we were in science class and like,

1442
01:38:52,625 --> 01:38:53,166
do they still have

1443
01:38:53,166 --> 01:38:54,791
beakers and stuff like that?

1444
01:38:54,791 --> 01:38:57,208
You know, test, what was the--

1445
01:38:57,958 --> 01:38:58,750
Oh, like the Bunsen burner.

1446
01:38:59,083 --> 01:38:59,875
Yeah, the Bunsen burner.

1447
01:38:59,916 --> 01:39:00,958
Bunsen burners are how I lost my

1448
01:39:00,958 --> 01:39:01,958
eyelashes, by the way,

1449
01:39:01,958 --> 01:39:03,166
which you don't believe me that,

1450
01:39:03,208 --> 01:39:04,291
but our youngest has

1451
01:39:04,291 --> 01:39:05,666
incredibly long eyelashes.

1452
01:39:05,750 --> 01:39:06,041
Yes.

1453
01:39:06,041 --> 01:39:07,250
And I used to, I used to

1454
01:39:07,250 --> 01:39:08,916
have comments on my eyelashes

1455
01:39:09,291 --> 01:39:11,500
until unfortunately a

1456
01:39:11,500 --> 01:39:13,166
Bunsen burner incident.

1457
01:39:13,500 --> 01:39:14,708
(laughing) Yeah.

1458
01:39:15,625 --> 01:39:16,750
They, it singed them off.

1459
01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:18,166
They're blonde because

1460
01:39:18,166 --> 01:39:19,333
they were singed for a while.

1461
01:39:19,333 --> 01:39:20,125
I blonde one.

1462
01:39:20,125 --> 01:39:20,833
That's crazy.

1463
01:39:20,833 --> 01:39:21,500
And then they've just never

1464
01:39:21,500 --> 01:39:22,625
grown back to that extent.

1465
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:23,291
Yeah.

1466
01:39:23,291 --> 01:39:25,833
So again, another failure of mine,

1467
01:39:25,833 --> 01:39:29,000
I lost my L'Oreal scholarship there,

1468
01:39:29,000 --> 01:39:30,666
my chance to go professional with this.

1469
01:39:30,666 --> 01:39:31,291
I know, you could have

1470
01:39:31,291 --> 01:39:32,333
been an eyelash model.

1471
01:39:32,583 --> 01:39:33,833
Eyelash model. (laughing)

1472
01:39:33,833 --> 01:39:35,083
Anyways, long story short,

1473
01:39:35,500 --> 01:39:36,500
we ended up putting

1474
01:39:36,500 --> 01:39:40,541
something like sulfur nitrate

1475
01:39:40,833 --> 01:39:43,000
in sulfuric acid or something like that,

1476
01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:43,708
these little black

1477
01:39:43,708 --> 01:39:45,458
nitrate, something like that.

1478
01:39:45,500 --> 01:39:46,250
I don't know what that means,

1479
01:39:46,250 --> 01:39:47,208
but that sounds dangerous.

1480
01:39:47,875 --> 01:39:50,416
Well, A, we're in

1481
01:39:50,416 --> 01:39:51,125
seventh or eighth grade,

1482
01:39:51,458 --> 01:39:53,416
so don't give us, maybe ninth grade,

1483
01:39:53,416 --> 01:39:54,791
because I went, my junior high was

1484
01:39:54,791 --> 01:39:55,375
seventh, eighth, ninth,

1485
01:39:55,791 --> 01:39:58,041
but don't give us two elements

1486
01:39:58,750 --> 01:40:01,333
that don't go well together, right?

1487
01:40:01,375 --> 01:40:02,916
Because we're idiots, right?

1488
01:40:02,958 --> 01:40:03,125
What?

1489
01:40:03,791 --> 01:40:05,375
So for some reason, we thought,

1490
01:40:05,750 --> 01:40:06,750
whether we did it right or

1491
01:40:06,750 --> 01:40:07,666
wrong, I don't even know,

1492
01:40:07,666 --> 01:40:09,625
maybe it was innocuous or whatnot,

1493
01:40:09,625 --> 01:40:10,291
but we ended up putting

1494
01:40:10,291 --> 01:40:12,333
the nitrate into the sulfur,

1495
01:40:14,166 --> 01:40:15,208
the acidic, whatever it

1496
01:40:15,208 --> 01:40:16,291
was, I don't even remember now,

1497
01:40:16,291 --> 01:40:17,500
but I just said it.

1498
01:40:18,666 --> 01:40:23,708
And it created the worst smell

1499
01:40:24,666 --> 01:40:25,583
you have ever smelled.

1500
01:40:25,583 --> 01:40:26,458
I mean, it was like

1501
01:40:26,458 --> 01:40:28,750
rotten eggs, but on, you know.

1502
01:40:29,708 --> 01:40:30,791
(laughing)

1503
01:40:31,291 --> 01:40:33,916
I can't believe you were not a

1504
01:40:33,916 --> 01:40:35,125
troublemaker growing up.

1505
01:40:35,500 --> 01:40:35,666
No.

1506
01:40:36,375 --> 01:40:38,791
But you made the school evacuate.

1507
01:40:39,083 --> 01:40:39,916
I did, yeah.

1508
01:40:39,916 --> 01:40:40,958
Because it smelled so bad,

1509
01:40:41,166 --> 01:40:43,375
not because you set a fire or--

1510
01:40:43,375 --> 01:40:44,166
It must have been ninth grade,

1511
01:40:44,166 --> 01:40:47,166
because this was honors biology or

1512
01:40:47,166 --> 01:40:47,750
something like that,

1513
01:40:47,750 --> 01:40:48,708
now that I think about it.

1514
01:40:48,750 --> 01:40:49,875
Probably chemistry, even.

1515
01:40:49,875 --> 01:40:51,000
Honors chemistry or something like that,

1516
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,166
but this was an honors class, and I

1517
01:40:53,166 --> 01:40:56,250
remember my friend Paul,

1518
01:40:56,541 --> 01:40:57,708
he took the hit for it.

1519
01:40:57,708 --> 01:40:59,000
He actually got kicked out of the class

1520
01:40:59,416 --> 01:40:59,916
because of it.

1521
01:40:59,958 --> 01:41:00,291
What?

1522
01:41:00,541 --> 01:41:01,791
Yeah, and I think that's

1523
01:41:01,791 --> 01:41:02,958
just because I was maybe

1524
01:41:02,958 --> 01:41:05,666
a little better well-known at the school.

1525
01:41:06,500 --> 01:41:06,750
Just, you know.

1526
01:41:06,791 --> 01:41:07,500
Really get a little

1527
01:41:07,500 --> 01:41:08,666
preferential treatment there?

1528
01:41:09,041 --> 01:41:09,708
Yeah, I mean, I was

1529
01:41:09,708 --> 01:41:10,333
in student government,

1530
01:41:10,333 --> 01:41:11,958
I was in yearbook, I was, you know,

1531
01:41:12,291 --> 01:41:13,833
I was voted best of this,

1532
01:41:13,833 --> 01:41:14,875
certain things, you know,

1533
01:41:14,875 --> 01:41:17,375
so I was a known quantity at the school,

1534
01:41:17,375 --> 01:41:19,416
and I, you know, I got away with it.

1535
01:41:20,291 --> 01:41:22,291
I mean, I did, I fessed up to it.

1536
01:41:22,333 --> 01:41:23,083
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1537
01:41:23,125 --> 01:41:23,916
But I didn't get--

1538
01:41:23,916 --> 01:41:24,666
You didn't get the consequence.

1539
01:41:25,083 --> 01:41:25,958
I didn't get any repercussions for it, right, exactly.

1540
01:41:27,291 --> 01:41:28,500
That's hilarious.

1541
01:41:29,166 --> 01:41:30,958
I wonder how they got the smell out,

1542
01:41:31,500 --> 01:41:32,666
or did it just reek for a long time?

1543
01:41:32,875 --> 01:41:33,500
We ended up going

1544
01:41:33,500 --> 01:41:34,458
back in after two hours,

1545
01:41:34,458 --> 01:41:35,500
but we were all outside, it

1546
01:41:35,500 --> 01:41:36,708
was a great break, it was fun,

1547
01:41:36,708 --> 01:41:38,000
but it reeked.

1548
01:41:38,833 --> 01:41:39,583
It was horrible.

1549
01:41:42,083 --> 01:41:42,833
That's hilarious.

1550
01:41:43,583 --> 01:41:44,166
See, we were never

1551
01:41:44,166 --> 01:41:45,458
evacuated for anything.

1552
01:41:45,666 --> 01:41:48,208
I mean, we had snow days that

1553
01:41:48,208 --> 01:41:49,500
would close down the school,

1554
01:41:49,500 --> 01:41:52,166
but we were, I don't, I

1555
01:41:52,166 --> 01:41:53,208
think we were ever evacuated,

1556
01:41:53,458 --> 01:41:54,500
and for the record, there

1557
01:41:54,500 --> 01:41:55,500
were only two snow days.

1558
01:41:56,458 --> 01:41:58,666
I went to school primarily in Minnesota.

1559
01:41:59,000 --> 01:41:59,291
Okay.

1560
01:41:59,833 --> 01:42:02,250
A couple years in Chicago, but for the

1561
01:42:02,250 --> 01:42:03,333
most part, for all--

1562
01:42:03,375 --> 01:42:04,375
Good snow in both places.

1563
01:42:04,375 --> 01:42:05,416
Good snow in both places,

1564
01:42:05,416 --> 01:42:06,291
but there were only two,

1565
01:42:06,916 --> 01:42:07,875
and in all those

1566
01:42:07,875 --> 01:42:09,333
years, and we have, what,

1567
01:42:09,333 --> 01:42:10,625
at least two a year here in Texas?

1568
01:42:11,125 --> 01:42:12,083
Yeah, well, I mean, yeah.

1569
01:42:12,666 --> 01:42:13,333
Colorado, we didn't

1570
01:42:13,333 --> 01:42:14,708
have very many snow days.

1571
01:42:14,708 --> 01:42:15,500
We did get some early

1572
01:42:15,500 --> 01:42:17,333
releases and some late starts

1573
01:42:17,333 --> 01:42:19,458
because of snow, you know, but--

1574
01:42:20,041 --> 01:42:20,916
Occasionally we'd get those.

1575
01:42:20,958 --> 01:42:21,666
They're prepared, those

1576
01:42:21,666 --> 01:42:23,500
cities are prepared for it,

1577
01:42:23,500 --> 01:42:25,000
drivers are prepared for it, I mean.

1578
01:42:25,791 --> 01:42:26,666
Texas or something else.

1579
01:42:26,916 --> 01:42:27,833
Yeah, yeah.

1580
01:42:28,458 --> 01:42:30,250
I do remember, though, the one that was,

1581
01:42:30,500 --> 01:42:31,583
one was super fun.

1582
01:42:31,791 --> 01:42:32,875
That was the Halloween Blizzard.

1583
01:42:33,250 --> 01:42:33,458
Yeah.

1584
01:42:33,958 --> 01:42:35,333
That was so fun, and then

1585
01:42:35,333 --> 01:42:36,833
my older brother's friend

1586
01:42:36,833 --> 01:42:38,416
had to stay with us

1587
01:42:38,416 --> 01:42:39,416
because his mom was traveling

1588
01:42:39,416 --> 01:42:40,458
and couldn't, she was a

1589
01:42:40,458 --> 01:42:41,750
single mom and couldn't come back,

1590
01:42:41,750 --> 01:42:44,250
and so, I mean, it was just

1591
01:42:44,250 --> 01:42:45,625
like, we got to play outside,

1592
01:42:45,625 --> 01:42:47,375
it was warm enough, and we had, you know,

1593
01:42:47,375 --> 01:42:50,666
I think we got 38 inches of snow

1594
01:42:50,666 --> 01:42:51,666
overnight, or something.

1595
01:42:51,666 --> 01:42:52,541
By warm enough, do you

1596
01:42:52,541 --> 01:42:53,916
mean it was like negative 20?

1597
01:42:53,958 --> 01:42:55,083
It was like 30, it

1598
01:42:55,083 --> 01:42:56,291
was, you know, 25 degrees,

1599
01:42:56,291 --> 01:42:57,375
and so when you're in Minnesota

1600
01:42:57,708 --> 01:42:59,083
and it's snowing in 25 degrees.

1601
01:42:59,083 --> 01:43:00,041
Short weather, yeah.

1602
01:43:00,041 --> 01:43:01,541
That's like the best.

1603
01:43:03,416 --> 01:43:04,083
But yeah, we couldn't even

1604
01:43:04,083 --> 01:43:05,166
see out some of our windows

1605
01:43:05,333 --> 01:43:07,583
because there was just too much snow.

1606
01:43:07,833 --> 01:43:08,000
Yeah.

1607
01:43:08,500 --> 01:43:09,166
It was up all over the

1608
01:43:09,166 --> 01:43:10,625
windows, but the worst.

1609
01:43:11,500 --> 01:43:12,333
They canceled school

1610
01:43:12,333 --> 01:43:14,375
because the actual temperature

1611
01:43:14,375 --> 01:43:15,916
was negative 36

1612
01:43:15,916 --> 01:43:17,833
degrees, and the wind chill

1613
01:43:17,833 --> 01:43:20,625
was negative 66, I think.

1614
01:43:22,625 --> 01:43:23,541
So if your memory's

1615
01:43:23,541 --> 01:43:24,958
wrong, worst case scenario,

1616
01:43:24,958 --> 01:43:26,583
you're off by 10 degrees, negative 56,

1617
01:43:26,958 --> 01:43:27,750
but you think it's negative 60?

1618
01:43:27,791 --> 01:43:29,708
It was somewhere in the negative 60s.

1619
01:43:29,708 --> 01:43:31,041
In the negative 60s wind chill.

1620
01:43:31,083 --> 01:43:32,208
Yeah, it was.

1621
01:43:32,208 --> 01:43:32,541
It's gotta be a

1622
01:43:32,541 --> 01:43:33,500
record, that's incredible.

1623
01:43:33,875 --> 01:43:35,375
It was incredible, it was.

1624
01:43:35,791 --> 01:43:36,500
Did you go outside in

1625
01:43:36,500 --> 01:43:37,375
it, just to feel it?

1626
01:43:37,416 --> 01:43:37,666
No.

1627
01:43:37,708 --> 01:43:38,291
How old were you?

1628
01:43:39,083 --> 01:43:39,958
I was in high school.

1629
01:43:40,416 --> 01:43:40,708
Okay.

1630
01:43:41,125 --> 01:43:42,125
At what year, I don't know, but.

1631
01:43:42,166 --> 01:43:43,416
You gotta be such a cracket reporter.

1632
01:43:43,916 --> 01:43:44,541
How old were you?

1633
01:43:44,541 --> 01:43:45,083
Did you go outside?

1634
01:43:45,291 --> 01:43:45,833
What were you wearing?

1635
01:43:46,500 --> 01:43:46,958
When your parents...

1636
01:43:47,958 --> 01:43:50,916
I didn't go outside because, I mean,

1637
01:43:50,958 --> 01:43:52,125
it was so cold.

1638
01:43:52,125 --> 01:43:54,833
It was dangerous. It was dangerous, and I remember it was

1639
01:43:55,083 --> 01:43:56,041
beautiful sunny day.

1640
01:43:56,875 --> 01:43:57,666
I'm surprised your family

1641
01:43:57,666 --> 01:43:58,625
didn't go running in it.

1642
01:43:58,708 --> 01:43:59,125
Yeah, no.

1643
01:43:59,125 --> 01:44:00,208
They pride themselves in running in

1644
01:44:00,208 --> 01:44:01,250
the coldest, stupidest brother.

1645
01:44:01,250 --> 01:44:02,333
The coldest brother, yeah, they.

1646
01:44:02,333 --> 01:44:03,083
We're gonna go for a walk.

1647
01:44:03,250 --> 01:44:04,375
We used to go there for Thanksgiving,

1648
01:44:04,625 --> 01:44:06,750
and they're like, it's negative 20,

1649
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:08,416
or it's negative five

1650
01:44:08,416 --> 01:44:09,291
with the wind chill,

1651
01:44:09,291 --> 01:44:11,541
it's six actual, and they're like,

1652
01:44:11,750 --> 01:44:13,125
does anybody wanna go for a walk?

1653
01:44:14,083 --> 01:44:15,416
Well, and they all live in cold climates,

1654
01:44:15,416 --> 01:44:16,583
so that's like normal.

1655
01:44:16,833 --> 01:44:17,166
I know.

1656
01:44:17,208 --> 01:44:18,333
And we're like, no.

1657
01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:19,333
I know.

1658
01:44:20,333 --> 01:44:21,125
It's the same family that

1659
01:44:21,125 --> 01:44:22,041
made fun of our kids, though,

1660
01:44:22,041 --> 01:44:23,333
for not knowing how to make a snowball.

1661
01:44:23,333 --> 01:44:24,166
It's like, my kids

1662
01:44:24,166 --> 01:44:25,000
have never been in snow.

1663
01:44:25,250 --> 01:44:25,791
This was before we

1664
01:44:25,791 --> 01:44:26,916
went skiing and all that.

1665
01:44:27,208 --> 01:44:28,750
Yeah, they had never seen snow before.

1666
01:44:29,083 --> 01:44:30,625
I wasn't happy about that comment.

1667
01:44:30,625 --> 01:44:31,125
I'm like, really?

1668
01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:33,625
Anyways, but they, yeah,

1669
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:35,041
some people forget that

1670
01:44:35,041 --> 01:44:37,000
it's not normal to be in negative 66,

1671
01:44:37,666 --> 01:44:38,791
or negative five all the time,

1672
01:44:38,791 --> 01:44:40,000
because our blood down

1673
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:40,833
here definitely thins.

1674
01:44:41,041 --> 01:44:42,000
It definitely thins.

1675
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:43,375
I mean, if we're out at the sidelines,

1676
01:44:43,375 --> 01:44:45,416
and it's anywhere close to,

1677
01:44:46,541 --> 01:44:48,916
anywhere between 30 and 50, I mean...

1678
01:44:50,208 --> 01:44:51,041
We're wearing heated

1679
01:44:51,041 --> 01:44:52,333
apparel at this point.

1680
01:44:53,083 --> 01:44:54,916
If there's a six on it, there is,

1681
01:44:54,916 --> 01:44:55,833
because the wind's cold.

1682
01:44:56,041 --> 01:44:56,875
Yeah, it's cold here.

1683
01:44:57,375 --> 01:44:58,958
I mean, some people

1684
01:44:58,958 --> 01:44:59,625
would think that's crazy,

1685
01:44:59,625 --> 01:45:00,541
but it gets cold here.

1686
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:01,875
What's that kid's name

1687
01:45:01,875 --> 01:45:03,375
in "The Christmas Story"

1688
01:45:03,625 --> 01:45:04,750
who's wearing so many--

1689
01:45:05,125 --> 01:45:05,333
Randy.

1690
01:45:05,958 --> 01:45:07,583
Randy, yeah, I am Randy on the sidelines.

1691
01:45:07,916 --> 01:45:08,125
Yeah.

1692
01:45:08,333 --> 01:45:08,916
All the time.

1693
01:45:08,958 --> 01:45:11,416
I can't put my arms down.

1694
01:45:11,458 --> 01:45:12,166
Yeah, but I'm warm.

1695
01:45:12,791 --> 01:45:14,083
And I look like a fool,

1696
01:45:14,083 --> 01:45:15,291
because I know I'm just like state puff

1697
01:45:15,291 --> 01:45:16,291
marshmallow man out.

1698
01:45:16,750 --> 01:45:18,291
I've got, there have been times

1699
01:45:18,458 --> 01:45:19,750
I've had upwards of

1700
01:45:19,750 --> 01:45:20,500
seven or eight layers.

1701
01:45:20,500 --> 01:45:20,958
Yes, you have.

1702
01:45:20,958 --> 01:45:21,541
On the top.

1703
01:45:21,541 --> 01:45:23,541
And I've had one, two, three, four,

1704
01:45:23,833 --> 01:45:24,791
I've had up to four

1705
01:45:24,791 --> 01:45:26,041
layers on the bottom at a time.

1706
01:45:26,041 --> 01:45:27,041
Yeah, yeah.

1707
01:45:27,125 --> 01:45:28,916
Normally it's two, but one

1708
01:45:28,916 --> 01:45:30,666
of those is fleece lined.

1709
01:45:30,750 --> 01:45:31,666
Yeah, yeah.

1710
01:45:32,166 --> 01:45:33,125
So that technically

1711
01:45:33,125 --> 01:45:34,625
should count as two, but yeah.

1712
01:45:34,666 --> 01:45:35,250
Good self, yeah.

1713
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:37,500
I remember one our daughter had,

1714
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:38,958
and that way we both

1715
01:45:38,958 --> 01:45:40,208
had our ski pants on.

1716
01:45:40,666 --> 01:45:40,791
Yeah.

1717
01:45:41,750 --> 01:45:44,250
But, yeah, I don't know

1718
01:45:44,250 --> 01:45:46,750
why it feels colder in Texas,

1719
01:45:47,625 --> 01:45:48,666
at like the same

1720
01:45:48,666 --> 01:45:52,125
temperature that they have all over.

1721
01:45:52,125 --> 01:45:52,916
And you're like, gosh, in

1722
01:45:52,916 --> 01:45:54,625
Minnesota, 50 degrees feels fine.

1723
01:45:54,625 --> 01:45:56,500
In Texas, it is but cold.

1724
01:45:56,958 --> 01:45:58,625
Well, and in Colorado, you can be,

1725
01:45:58,625 --> 01:45:59,541
I mean, literally it is

1726
01:45:59,541 --> 01:46:01,500
shorts weather at 40 degrees

1727
01:46:01,583 --> 01:46:03,291
outside, and a long sleeve t-shirt.

1728
01:46:03,666 --> 01:46:04,625
Sun is so hot.

1729
01:46:04,791 --> 01:46:05,291
It's incredible.

1730
01:46:06,416 --> 01:46:08,208
It's got the best climate there.

1731
01:46:09,250 --> 01:46:10,666
Yeah, but that's why we get to go back.

1732
01:46:11,166 --> 01:46:12,958
Yeah, we get to go and

1733
01:46:12,958 --> 01:46:14,875
enjoy the snow and play in it,

1734
01:46:15,291 --> 01:46:16,250
but not have to shovel it.

1735
01:46:16,916 --> 01:46:18,791
Because with your back, I don't know

1736
01:46:18,791 --> 01:46:19,208
that you should be

1737
01:46:19,208 --> 01:46:21,208
shoveling snow either at this point.

1738
01:46:21,250 --> 01:46:22,250
Just hire that one out too.

1739
01:46:22,625 --> 01:46:23,708
I gotta get some more jobs

1740
01:46:25,208 --> 01:46:27,083
to afford all these people we're hiring.

1741
01:46:27,750 --> 01:46:28,125
Look, I think it

1742
01:46:28,125 --> 01:46:29,666
doesn't snow here very often.

1743
01:46:29,666 --> 01:46:30,500
Yeah, yeah.

1744
01:46:30,750 --> 01:46:32,708
Like it melts pretty quickly too.

1745
01:46:32,750 --> 01:46:34,416
No, we never, well, no,

1746
01:46:34,416 --> 01:46:35,208
we've never shoveled here.

1747
01:46:35,333 --> 01:46:35,916
We do have a shovel.

1748
01:46:36,166 --> 01:46:37,000
We have a shovel.

1749
01:46:37,583 --> 01:46:40,041
Actually, I did shovel this last time.

1750
01:46:40,041 --> 01:46:40,541
You did?

1751
01:46:40,583 --> 01:46:42,125
Remember I had to shovel the walkway

1752
01:46:42,208 --> 01:46:43,375
to Paris's little--

1753
01:46:43,625 --> 01:46:44,500
Oh, yep, yep.

1754
01:46:44,833 --> 01:46:45,166
Potty spot.

1755
01:46:45,583 --> 01:46:48,708
Yes, if you have a doxy, they hate snow.

1756
01:46:49,291 --> 01:46:50,791
So yeah, we had to shovel the way

1757
01:46:50,791 --> 01:46:52,083
and we actually had to shovel off a spot

1758
01:46:52,083 --> 01:46:54,500
where she would even go to the bathroom.

1759
01:46:54,916 --> 01:46:55,083
Yeah.

1760
01:46:55,666 --> 01:46:57,125
She did not like snow.

1761
01:46:57,875 --> 01:46:58,958
Well, what do we got coming up here?

1762
01:46:58,958 --> 01:46:59,541
We gotta keep this thing.

1763
01:47:00,625 --> 01:47:02,625
Let's see, well, it's

1764
01:47:02,625 --> 01:47:03,333
a spring break week.

1765
01:47:03,833 --> 01:47:06,250
So we'll have, I mean, we're working.

1766
01:47:06,833 --> 01:47:09,291
So, you know, the kids will be around.

1767
01:47:09,291 --> 01:47:10,791
We'll have to, you know,

1768
01:47:10,958 --> 01:47:12,166
find ways to keep them entertained.

1769
01:47:13,291 --> 01:47:16,458
But yeah, we're, I don't know.

1770
01:47:16,458 --> 01:47:18,333
We got the NCAA tournament coming up.

1771
01:47:18,375 --> 01:47:19,041
That's right, we have to

1772
01:47:19,041 --> 01:47:19,916
fill out our brackets today.

1773
01:47:20,250 --> 01:47:21,166
Fill out brackets, yeah,

1774
01:47:21,250 --> 01:47:23,541
selection Sunday as we're recording.

1775
01:47:25,083 --> 01:47:27,166
So it'll be, do you have an idea

1776
01:47:27,166 --> 01:47:28,166
of who you're gonna put for,

1777
01:47:28,791 --> 01:47:29,875
who's in the championship game?

1778
01:47:32,625 --> 01:47:33,500
I don't know, you know,

1779
01:47:33,500 --> 01:47:35,833
I might've put my money on Duke early,

1780
01:47:35,833 --> 01:47:37,541
but they had two injuries this last week.

1781
01:47:38,375 --> 01:47:39,625
Player of the year, I think, up there.

1782
01:47:39,916 --> 01:47:40,708
He sprained his ankle.

1783
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:42,333
Sometimes that's tough to come back from.

1784
01:47:43,291 --> 01:47:44,958
In such a short period of time.

1785
01:47:46,125 --> 01:47:47,166
So no, I don't know.

1786
01:47:47,166 --> 01:47:48,000
It's not my Jayhawks this

1787
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:48,916
year though, that's for sure.

1788
01:47:49,416 --> 01:47:50,750
In fact, by the time this airs,

1789
01:47:50,750 --> 01:47:51,875
they may not even be in it anymore.

1790
01:47:52,250 --> 01:47:53,708
It was so bad this year.

1791
01:47:53,833 --> 01:47:54,208
Possibly.

1792
01:47:54,500 --> 01:47:55,625
It's been frustrating to watch.

1793
01:47:55,666 --> 01:47:56,458
Hopefully they show up.

1794
01:47:57,125 --> 01:47:58,500
Yeah, I think I saw that Tar Heels

1795
01:47:58,500 --> 01:48:00,250
might not even make it.

1796
01:48:00,541 --> 01:48:01,541
Michael Jordan's armor modder.

1797
01:48:01,541 --> 01:48:02,375
Are you kidding?

1798
01:48:02,666 --> 01:48:03,416
Yeah, that's a long way.

1799
01:48:03,416 --> 01:48:04,333
Has that ever happened?

1800
01:48:05,541 --> 01:48:06,875
No, I don't know.

1801
01:48:06,875 --> 01:48:07,708
I don't think so though.

1802
01:48:08,375 --> 01:48:09,708
They've been low seeds before,

1803
01:48:09,708 --> 01:48:11,083
but I don't think they've ever been

1804
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:13,000
in danger of not actually

1805
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:15,250
making the NCAA tournament.

1806
01:48:15,291 --> 01:48:16,458
Yeah, they'll end up in NIT.

1807
01:48:17,083 --> 01:48:17,291
Yeah.

1808
01:48:18,333 --> 01:48:19,583
So I think that maybe there

1809
01:48:19,583 --> 01:48:20,750
was one year that did happen.

1810
01:48:22,041 --> 01:48:24,416
But anyways, it's always fun to watch.

1811
01:48:24,416 --> 01:48:25,541
So we'll have that coming up.

1812
01:48:25,541 --> 01:48:26,250
We got spring break.

1813
01:48:27,458 --> 01:48:29,083
We're trying to figure out how to,

1814
01:48:29,916 --> 01:48:31,375
we're about 100 days out from our

1815
01:48:31,375 --> 01:48:32,666
vacation going overseas

1816
01:48:33,000 --> 01:48:34,666
and that's taken all kinds of planning.

1817
01:48:35,291 --> 01:48:36,458
So we're trying to figure that out.

1818
01:48:36,458 --> 01:48:37,833
We're figuring out, we plan differently

1819
01:48:37,833 --> 01:48:38,750
for these kind of things.

1820
01:48:39,125 --> 01:48:40,000
I don't think we should

1821
01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:41,041
show up on foreign shores

1822
01:48:41,250 --> 01:48:42,250
with no plans.

1823
01:48:42,625 --> 01:48:42,833
Nope.

1824
01:48:43,583 --> 01:48:45,375
You're like, oh, we should.

1825
01:48:45,375 --> 01:48:47,708
Yeah, I think you just haven't thought

1826
01:48:47,708 --> 01:48:48,625
that far down the road yet

1827
01:48:48,625 --> 01:48:49,625
that we need to have a lot

1828
01:48:49,625 --> 01:48:50,625
of things planned out here.

1829
01:48:51,625 --> 01:48:52,208
I have.

1830
01:48:52,208 --> 01:48:56,375
I just, I'm not urgently planning it.

1831
01:48:56,875 --> 01:48:58,666
No, we need, I wanna

1832
01:48:58,666 --> 01:49:01,125
map out some of them.

1833
01:49:01,125 --> 01:49:03,041
I think the whole timeline of like,

1834
01:49:03,041 --> 01:49:04,291
oh, it's still 100 days.

1835
01:49:04,291 --> 01:49:05,083
We still have time.

1836
01:49:05,625 --> 01:49:06,458
No, I mean, again, I

1837
01:49:06,458 --> 01:49:08,875
use the Disney example.

1838
01:49:10,083 --> 01:49:11,916
These hardcore vacationers,

1839
01:49:12,083 --> 01:49:12,708
these things have been

1840
01:49:12,708 --> 01:49:14,583
booked for millennia.

1841
01:49:15,125 --> 01:49:15,708
I mean, those Disney

1842
01:49:15,708 --> 01:49:16,750
people are all over it.

1843
01:49:16,750 --> 01:49:17,500
There's so many things that

1844
01:49:17,500 --> 01:49:18,500
we didn't get to do at Disney

1845
01:49:19,541 --> 01:49:21,500
because we tried to do it five months out

1846
01:49:21,500 --> 01:49:22,833
and people did it 12 months out.

1847
01:49:23,416 --> 01:49:25,166
I think this is kind of the same way.

1848
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:28,208
We didn't get into the steakhouse.

1849
01:49:28,208 --> 01:49:29,083
We wanted to get into,

1850
01:49:30,208 --> 01:49:31,708
we'll figure that stuff out.

1851
01:49:34,000 --> 01:49:35,333
It's one of the few instances probably

1852
01:49:35,708 --> 01:49:38,000
that we're not finishing each other's.

1853
01:49:38,208 --> 01:49:38,458
Sandwiches.

1854
01:49:39,291 --> 01:49:40,750
Sandwiches, vacations.

1855
01:49:41,291 --> 01:49:41,958
Vacations.

1856
01:49:41,958 --> 01:49:43,541
Sand castles, beach.

1857
01:49:44,500 --> 01:49:45,000
I was trying to think how

1858
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:45,958
you could make that come around

1859
01:49:45,958 --> 01:49:49,041
to the vacation.

1860
01:49:49,708 --> 01:49:50,208
A little bit more

1861
01:49:50,208 --> 01:49:52,166
towards what we were saying.

1862
01:49:53,291 --> 01:49:53,916
You could try it again.

1863
01:49:54,166 --> 01:49:55,375
Excursion, I mean, like we could.

1864
01:49:55,375 --> 01:49:56,375
We would just have to--

1865
01:49:56,666 --> 01:49:58,208
Finish, you could try it again.

1866
01:49:58,750 --> 01:49:59,833
Like, you know, it's

1867
01:49:59,833 --> 01:50:01,041
just one of the few things

1868
01:50:01,333 --> 01:50:03,041
that we just haven't, we're not on the

1869
01:50:03,041 --> 01:50:03,875
same page all the time

1870
01:50:03,875 --> 01:50:04,333
because you're not

1871
01:50:04,333 --> 01:50:05,958
necessarily finishing mine.

1872
01:50:06,583 --> 01:50:06,791
Excursions.

1873
01:50:07,166 --> 01:50:07,750
There you go.

1874
01:50:08,166 --> 01:50:09,250
Oh, it works, right?

1875
01:50:09,250 --> 01:50:09,541
A little bit?

1876
01:50:09,583 --> 01:50:10,500
It does, it does.

1877
01:50:10,708 --> 01:50:11,333
I like that one.

1878
01:50:12,500 --> 01:50:13,458
All right, that works.

1879
01:50:13,458 --> 01:50:14,791
Well, let's say goodbye to everybody

1880
01:50:14,791 --> 01:50:15,625
unless you have anything else.

1881
01:50:16,041 --> 01:50:17,458
No, until next time, everyone.

1882
01:50:17,833 --> 01:50:18,666
All right, until next time.

1883
01:50:18,666 --> 01:50:19,125
Have a great one.

1884
01:50:19,500 --> 01:50:19,708
Bye.

1885
01:50:19,916 --> 01:50:20,250
Rock on.
