It's cute. Good morning. It's Josh and Chantel. Let's let's start over then. Okay.
Well, how how am I starting over? There was a restaurant. There was a restaurant, and they brought back an all you can eat menu. So there was all you can eat wings, riblets, shrimp. And there was a woman who showed up, and she started sharing her all you can eat order with everyone at her table.
Well, that's not how it works. The waitress came over and said, hey. I'm sorry. That's not allowed. The all you can eat meal is just one meal for one person.
Correct. The woman who ordered got pretty irate, and she said, that's not what it says. That's not what it says. It did say that in some fine print. It says per person, And then things escalated when she got her bill and Had to pay for all of them.
Charged an all you can eat meal for everyone at the table, which was $16. Per person. Per person. And how many people How many people were there? Even if it's 4, you're into it $64.
Yeah. So she got upset and started belaying the waitress. And cops were called, and her friends were like, calm down. What are you doing? We'll pay the bill.
It's no big deal. This is our fault. We didn't read. Still, the woman went back down and said that that wasn't. She thought it was per table.
Even after the waitress was like I don't know what to tell you. Yeah. You thought wrong. They did end up paying. The woman was arrested for disorderly conduct.
And, if you go to eat at an all you can eat place, it is not per table. It would not. It usually is not. Whenever is it per table? It's not.
If it was per table, it would be a $100 or more. Yeah. It wouldn't be $60. Talking about? Like, this this is crazy.
Yeah. I think she tried to She tried to pull a fast one. Yes. She did. She got busted.
Yep. And she was mad that she got caught, which is typically why people are mad. Be better. What are you doing? Like, that's terrible.
Also, all you can eat blech. You love a buffet. Come on. You like it when there's, like, skin on top of food that's been sitting there for a minute. Who doesn't?
Yeah. Communal spoons, sneeze guards, buffets have it all. They did a new report of the 6 deadliest jobs in America. Okay. Who did the report?
Mike Rowe? Who did the the dirty job report? You said deadly job, not dirty. Okay. Yeah.
What's up? What? Radio workers, number 1. Radio DJ's most deadliest job? Yeah.
I somehow don't think that's true. We put our life on the line every No. Day. Nope. And I'm not even gonna pretend that's real because there are people out there doing way more dangerous things.
There is. So drivers and truck drivers, that's Really? Like, FedEx, UPS, truck drivers, all those delivery drivers. That's some of the The long haul drivers too. Right?
So all the guys are on the freeway. That's road truckers. Number 6. That's number 6. Aircraft pilots and flight engineers, that's number 5.
Okay. What? I'm just look. There's flights. There's 100 and 100 of flights every day.
Yeah. Thousands around the world. Yeah. But there's not, like, airplane accidents every day. Well and they've listed it by they compared a 1,000 workers and how many deaths per a 1,000 worker a 100,000 worker.
So there's 36 deaths per 1,000 a 100,000 workers for aircraft pilots and aircraft engineers. I see. K. Number 4, construction. 39 deaths per 100,000 workers.
Fishing and hunting workers. Wait. What's a fishing worker? Is that what you wanna get into? I'm just you this sounds like I get paid to fish.
But also So I'm real interested in that. I can see how hunting would be dangerous, but fishing isn't that dangerous. You haven't been to some of the places I go fishing. It's dangerous. How's it dangerous?
Wildlife. K. Rattlesnakes. Okay. Drowning.
Alright. Just hiking injuries in general Have you seen being in remote wilderness? Rattlesnakes where you've been fishing before? But I know that one of my favorite places to go is a place where rattlesnakes exist. You'd never take me there.
That's why I didn't take you there. Good job. I'll never I won't go there. That's rattlesnakes are terrifying. I'm terrified of them.
Roofers. Have you ever seen a rattlesnake? Yeah. I have. You have?
Yes. Oh, yeah. That one time. I remember. We were on that hike.
We're on that hike, and it was right in the middle of the path, and nobody saw until we were right next to it. Well, that's how they work. And we didn't even hear it. The dog didn't even notice. Because it was sleeping until it had felt the vibration, and then it let us know we were there.
And then we I was freaked out the whole rest of the hike. Alright. Sorry. Go ahead. K.
Roofers is number 2. Okay. Deadliest job. That's fallen off of stuff. Yeah.
I know. And then the number one most dangerous job in America is logging workers. I can believe that. Jumped the number 2 job roofers, 58 deaths per 100,000 workers. Logging workers, 101 deaths per 100,000 workers.
That is a huge jump from number 2 to number 1. Dude, trees I falling or felling trees is very dangerous. The chainsaw is very dangerous. The the roads they drive those trucks on very quick are dangerous. The logging is not where it's at when it comes to Safety.
I'm sure they do everything they can to be safe. But But that is still happen. There's a lot of there's a lot of potential danger there. That's why it's number 1 on the list. I get it.
But what's the day most dangerous kind of fishing? I don't know. I would have to say Alaskan king crab since they called the show deadliest catch. Because that's in the North Sea. Yeah.
You're out there. I know. Don't mess with it. It's wild out there. I got looped on the algorithm Yeah.
Where it was just North Sea TikToks and Reels. The grandeur of the of the sea and the power of water and these giant vessels looking so tiny out there. No. Forget about it. I'm gonna stick to my I'm a land lover.
Land lover. Stick to my safe radio job. Good news to get you going, we call it. This is kind of a fun little story. So, last month in Lisbon, Ohio, people came out for the Hopples Rodeo.
Oh. It's an annual, event in the community. A couple of vendors were set up selling different foods and stuff. Okay. Bert and Roxy Kelly were one of those vendors.
They sell chicken wings, and they have supported the event by purchasing some different raffle tickets that both benefited sponsors each night. And, if your raffle ticket was drawn, you would win a cash prize. That's how raffle tickets work. Right? Well, doing different stuff.
This particular one was for money. Okay. Bert, he he said, I'm gonna buy this raffle ticket. And he said, if I win, I'm donating whatever money we win to this night's sponsoring charity. Day 1 Okay.
Bert and Roxy had their, their number drawn. And as they promised, the $800 that they won was donated to the Tough Enough to Wear Pink charity, which is a breast cancer awareness charity. Fantastic. Right? One of the organizers of the rodeo named Cathy Woods, she was thankful for Bert and Roxy and their generosity.
And she said participants like the Kellys are the ones that make not only the rodeo, but the world a much better place to be a part of. I think that's very cool, because, you know, obviously, they were like, hey. We're here. We're doing the vendor thing. We got a little extra cash.
We'll buy a raffle ticket each night and just see what happens. And so he kinda did it as a little a little fun thing, and it turned around, $800 to help people. That's so great. I think it's awesome. So well done to those guys.
It's good news. Two thumbs up, buddy. Yeah. On classy 97. What is one thing that if offered, you would never say no to?
What is something that if it was offered, I would never say no to? A a a proper no strings attached real free getaway. Okay. Not one where I have to Well, that's an option. Join some Choice.
Yeah. No. That's fine. That's good. You you didn't give me guidance.
You just said, what is it? That's fine. Give me a real, you get to go here all inclusive. Everything's paid for, transportation, somewhere to stay, food. You would just have to show up at this time and be ready to go.
And you're gone for a week, and you'll come back. Everything's cool, and it's all taken care of while you're gone. I love it. That is like a no offers me that. Because it doesn't exist.
No. It doesn't. Here's some other options that people gave for things that if they were offered, they wouldn't say no to. A paid day off. Just, hey, take the day off.
The day. Or if your boss is like, hey. We're closing early. Get out of here. You're never gonna be like, oh.
Simpler things than what I said. Let me stay and work, please, boss. A nap? Somebody's like, hey. Go take a nap.
Nobody ever offers me that. I offer it to toddlers when we had them. Go take a nap. And they went, nah. Yeah.
Nobody ever offers it to the parents, and the parents are the ones who need it. Go take a nap. Okay. Yeah. I've I've turned on your white noise.
I don't need that. I don't need that either, but some people do. I got your little special blanket. Let's take your shoes off. Turn off the lights for you.
Doesn't that sound nice? Yeah. Nobody ever offers me that. A breath mint? Do you ever say no to a breath mint?
I don't, actually. Because I always feel like if somebody pops in a mint and they're like, you want one? I probably need it. I know. That's that's why I always say yes to, like, oh, you're are you suggesting something?
How about some pizza? Would you like a slice of pizza? Every time. Somebody offering to pick up the check? Yeah.
I'm not I'm not gonna stop you. I always say no. You always argue. Yeah. Because I never feel like I feel somebody says they wanna do it, let them do it.
I always feel like they're doing it just because they I don't know. Do you know what you say? What? That's really nice of you. Thank you.
I'll get you next time. And they always go, okay. And then occasionally, they follow you up on it, and you go, hey. It's my day to treat you. You wanna go grab something?
And they go, actually, yeah. Let's go. Alright. It's a it's an opportunity for a second invitation, and then you balance out, then you feel fine about it. Alright.
I'll try that next time. How about flowers? You ever been offered flowers? Here, have a flower. No.
Aw. Me neither, buddy. You've never been offered flowers? No. No.
Been given flowers? Flowers. Yeah. It's never been like, here, would you like this? Yeah.
I bet I bet the kids have done that. I got you this flower. Oh, yeah. I guess they have when they were little. Yep.
Have a dandelion Yeah. Or 6. I got you this flower. Thanks. Yeah.
My I vased all of those little dandelions. I know. How about a hug? Aw. Bring it in.
I think there are probably sometimes I'd say no. I know. But a hug's fine. If somebody was just like, come here. Come give me a hug.
Ask to give a hug the other day I know. To one of our buddies. Yeah. He said, can I hug you guys? Yes.
Spot us at the store. It was like, my favorite people, which was very fun. Lovely. Yep. Unexpected and nice.
It is. Yeah. And you wouldn't say no to it. Offer someone a hug. Or See if they say no.
Inclusive Or that all expense paid, full on week long trip. Or a nap. Nobody ever offers me a nap. If I say to you, PEMDAS. Okay.
Do you know what that is? It's gotta be an acronym for something. Yes. What's it for? You don't know?
Off the top of your head. Like I do. I feel like you would if I took it. Yeah. It's a math acronym.
That's right. It's the order of operations. It is. That's right. Good job.
Yeah. You know it then? Yeah. I know the order of operations. Yes.
But you know PEM does. Yeah. I've heard that before. Yes. I've never heard that before.
Yeah. Never. And I know the order of operations. I'm sure I was taught it. I just don't the acronym, I don't remember learning that at all.
The kids were talking about this the other day. Yeah. And I said, is this new? Are they just teaching students this acronym? No.
I don't remember learning it unless I just pushed it out of my brain with all the other math lessons I learned. I was like, I'm never gonna I'm never gonna need this. It's it is one of the the greatest things that, gets quizzed on the Internet. Oh, really? Where they'll put up a math equation, and then and they'll go, what's the answer?
And the comments are filled with a whole bunch of people that don't know the order of operations. Agreed. Because a lot of people just do math like they're reading. From left to right. Which is not how math works.
No. It isn't. And I know that even. Because of PEMDAS. PEMDAS.
Yeah. PEMDAS is parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. That is correct. It's along the same lines as, Vemshnop. Which is all of the names of the planets from, Saved by the Bell.
Yes. But there's no p at the end anymore. Oh, you're right. So it's inaccurate. Yeah.
Well, I don't even remember who said that, but that was The priest did. Did he say it, or was it what he taught Zach so that Zach could do the thing? That. Yeah. And it's because he got a concussion that episode.
And so he said There it is. Yeah. All of a sudden, I want a tortilla with sugar and cinnamon on it. I don't know what what what the back to school just happened. I That was great.
You passed the test. I really thought maybe I'd be the only one who was like, I've never heard of PEMDAS, Order of operations. I know, but I don't I've never heard that acronym before. Yeah. Yeah.
Sure I have, but I don't remember. Not a real memorable word. Pepitas? Yeah. I'll never forget it now.
Well, you'll see it, and you'll go, that's familiar. I just don't know where from. And then you'll say something like it has to do with math, and then you go, oh, yeah. It's the order of operations. That's what happens.
The more you know. Oh. When does school start? I know I don't know when every I don't know when area school starts. I know that the 2 districts here in Idaho Falls, District 91 and District 93 both start on the same day.
Yeah. I know some some kids are already back in school. Some of them Oh, I'm so sorry, kids. Like, in different parts of the country. Like, there are there are people who start at the very beginning of August.
There's there's People in Arizona that have already started. There are there are year round schools. Yes. Like, there's there's a lot of different varying starting and ending dates. But as far as what's happening in East Idaho, yeah, it So Sure.
For the large majority of Idaho Falls children Yeah. School goes back in exactly 2 weeks and 2 days. Alright. That's exciting for a whole bunch of people and very unexciting for a whole bunch of other people. Now becomes the time when as parents, we go, oh, our kids have had no routine, no schedule.
Also saying now is the time? So you wanna take this 2 week window and actually do something with it? No. No. No.
No. Yeah. I'm saying, like, now is the time that we've gotta be like, alright. It's time for bed. We gotta start wake.
Yeah. I get it. I get what you're saying. A little routine. Because you gotta get that practice in because that first day of school is gonna hit hard.
Yeah. I I hear what you're saying, but I'm telling you, as as king procrastinator, I did not ever try to do anything 2 weeks before. I was I was dreading it. I was, no. This is lame.
I'm not gonna do it. And it would be the night before, and I'd be like, I should have done this 2 weeks ago. That. Yeah. So it's good.
2 weeks and a couple of days. If you don't start tonight, you know, wait till Sunday night, I guess, but you gotta start somewhere. You gotta. I know. Because it's or don't.
And then just Do it. Just just do it. Just then you gotta wake up and on that first day of school. You're like, I'm here doing this. Yeah.
I've had no schedule all summer. Going to bed at 2, playing video games. Looking at looking like bed head. Waking up at noon. Yeah.
These are all really good things that can happen. I like I think I think every time change, every every time there's a big thing you need to be preparing for, just don't. Although, I think I think the 1st day of school is a little bit differently. It hits different because you're excited and you're nervous. Yeah.
And so you're it's easier for you to wake up on the 1st day of school. It's the 4th day of school. Exactly. Yes. It's like that Wednesday, Thursday, and you're like No.
No. I don't wanna go I remember what it is. Oh, yeah. I forgot over the summer, and now I remember. And I saw my friends, and so now I'm done.
I wanna go back to bed. I'm I'm just gonna I remember what this is. Yeah. Once you remember what it is, you're like, I've had enough. That happens a lot sooner for a lot of kids too.
Usually, that happens on the second day. Kids are like You think? I don't know. Maybe not. I think second day, you're still pretty hyped up.
You just saw everybody. You didn't get a chance to really connect with everybody over recess, you know, or in the halls or whatever. So by the time you get to, like, yeah, Thursday, you're like, oh, this lunch and learning structure, rules. Math, reading Yeah. Homework.
Science. You know? Ugh. Right. Right.
Right. That's what I'm talking about. So you got 2 weeks 2 days ish. A couple of weeks. Take advantage.
You know? Squeeze the last little bit out of summer and, and also But also get all that back to school shopping done. Squeeze the last bit of summer out, but also try and go to bed at a decent time. Or don't. Or just Just don't.
Crazy. Have you ever been in the proximity of a close talker? Mhmm. And you try to take a step back Mhmm. And they just follow you and they are close.
It's similar to, like, magnet walker. Somebody who walks real close to you. And I'm a person that I like to have a little bit of space. I have a bubble. It's invisible, but I don't like people to get too close.
Yeah. I'm not, I'm not big on the close talking thing specifically because a lot of times there's, Spit? That's fine. Yeah. Spit.
I don't like it. I don't like it. It's not even like, it's that, but it's also I don't I don't need you to smell or feel whatever might be coming from my mouth also. You know? Like, then I see if somebody's too close to me, then I start to panic, like, is my deodorant working?
When was when was the last time I brushed my teeth? I start to panic and get, like, sweaty going, don't get too close. There's no reason to talk that close. There isn't. Just back up.
You can hear me just fine. Yeah. Yeah. I don't need you. Like, me and this microphone are pretty close.
Yeah. You have to be. Right? Right. But it's an inanimate object.
It's different. When you're talking to me as a close talker, I'm not a microphone. Take a step back. The worst part is when they don't take the hint that they're too close. And then when you just start to step back Yeah.
And get further away, and then my body language changes. And I start, like, getting uncomfortable and antsy and dancy, and then I got my arms crossed because I'm in a protective closed off Right. Body language situation. And feel trapped. Maybe you should take a step back.
I don't wanna be this close. You do close. Did you have a recent close talker experience? There was just something that brought the idea of a close talker back into my brain, and I went, oh, yeah. I wanna talk about that because, that makes me uncomfortable.
It's not great. Not a fan. Or when people just walk too close, you're gonna bump into me. I don't care for that. Give me some room.
I need some space. Yeah. Easy. Yeah. I, I agree.
There's a thing in scouting called the blood circle. Right? That's yeah. If you if you are using a pocket knife, no one should be within your arm's length. That's, yeah, that's a talking circle.
That is a talking circle. It's my breath circle. Stay out. Step back. Social distance, man.
You're too close. I'll be nice about it. Yeah. Jeez. Just stop it.
It's weird. Emery has volleyball tryouts. Yes. Next week. Next week.
And so we went last night, and we were trying to get some practice in. It went okay. We were all a little bit rusty. She got a little bit tired because we did a lot of chasing the ball rather than, hitting and bumping Right. Setting that ball.
That is true. And then we figured out a good system. We finally had it going on. On the way home, we were just kinda talking about, you know, doing your best and and trying your hardest and what's the best that can happen. And, she is 14, almost 15, so she's, you know, sassy.
And that's how I raised her. Right. And that's fine. I wanted to she told me, I don't need a pep talk right now. Yeah.
And I went, oh, okay. I'll keep my mouth shut. I didn't. I kept going. After that, you start giving her a pep talk.
I didn't hear her say she didn't need a pep talk. I just kept going. I looked at her like I didn't say anything. I just gave her a look like, oh, dad's allowed to give you a pep talk? And she goes, I didn't ask for him.
I didn't ask for one for him from him either. And I went, good. I'm glad. Because it shouldn't just be me she's going after. It should be both of us.
I didn't hear her say that. I and even if she did, I'd be like, yeah. You actually do. So listen up because this is all good stuff. So let's go.
I just I like that she when I gave her a look like, oh, dad's allowed to give you, she knew exactly what I meant. And went, yeah, I didn't ask for one from him either. So I don't want a pep talk from either one of you. Too bad. Back off, parents.
Too bad. Listen up. Open them ears because here it comes. Pep talk. We have life Yesterday, it was brought to my attention that, there's a a a radio station.
I don't even know where they are. I can't even remember. It's kind of unimportant. But they have a multi person morning show. And one of the people was on vacation or was sick or maternity leave or something.
And she was unavailable to do a, like, celebrity gossip report thing. That's a segment that she regularly does. But they had found this, AI software that you can load audio into, and you can make the AI say in that person's voice kind of the script. In that person's voice? Yeah.
So they plugged in Yeah. Audio from her doing the reports and then plugged in a new script and had it do the report in her absence and said, yeah. This is AI. Whatever. So let me let me also say the actors went on strike.
Yes. The writers went on strike all over AI stuff. Video game voice over artists are on strike right now over AI voice stuff. Right. And when this was brought to my attention, I think yesterday or the day before, whatever it was, I said, no.
Nope. Do not consent to my voice being part of this. I wasn't listened to very well, nor were you in your absence. What? I know.
I gave no consent. That's what I'm saying. And and listen. There's there's a lot of, like, livelihood here. Like, this is kinda my job.
This is like my job. Yes. So I'm concerned about it as I should be that, you know, the technology exists that can do that stuff, say that stuff in my voice. So even with my nonconsent, it was created, and, and it exists. And this is this is legit.
This is an AI. This is AI. Good morning, Classy Nation. It's your boy Josh here with the fabulous Chantel. And guess what?
Today is National Cotton Candy Day. Oh, boy. Another food holiday. What's next? National brussels sprout day?
Don't knock it till you try it, Chantel. Chantel. Okay. It's weird. It is weird because it sounds like you.
It's too weird. But not, like, 7, like, younger. Yeah. Or it's just not right. It's off a little bit.
Mine sounds totally cute. A lot of, like, weird vibrato and stuff. Candy is a classic. I mean, who doesn't love that fluffy, sugary goodness? Seriously, Josh?
Cotton candy is basically just sugar spun into a cloud. It melts in your mouth and leaves you with nothing but a sticky mess. Right. You get it. It's strange, though.
Weird. It's really, really weird. And I'm again, I don't I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like it.
I don't wanna be a part of it. I don't wanna be plugged into it. I don't want anything to do with it. And, also, is that what I really sound like? Yeah.
I do really sound like cotton candy. That's exactly what you sound like. So No wonder you never listen to me. Whatever. It's just strange.
It is strange. And I'm I'm really, you know, I can understand why there are industries that are saying, hey. Listen. This technology has potential to be a fantastic tool to help in industry, and I I totally agree with that. I think it's a great technological advancement for making things streamlined.
Not a replacement. Do not replace people with it. Like, that's the thing. Right? Like, I don't like that there's that potential, and that's exactly what people are striking about.
The actors are saying, no. Don't plug my face in and my voice in to AI and recreate me. Because they will. Because they will because they can do it way way more, yeah, way less expensive. It's way less expensive to develop an AI and do an AI thing.
Easy because you're not dealing with people's schedules. You're working on your own schedule. Then you don't have to deal with the whole human resources of the whole thing. There's so many pieces that get just robbed away in this in this existence. And so, yeah, that's why I said, no.
I do not consent to being part of this. I know. Stop it. There's there are certain things that that AI currently use you hear it. It's not it's not a 100%.
You can tell. Yeah. But boy, is it wicked close. Taking leaps and bounds every day. Every day.
Yeah. So, again, I understand why people are upset about it. I get it. I don't wanna be a part of it. Don't plug me into it.
Yeah. Don't put me into it anymore. Quit it. Peaches? Yeah.
Don't put me in there. I don't want anything to do with it. That he did it for everybody I know. In the office. Did you ask?
Did you get a written consent? Doubt it. I don't wanna be any part of it, man. Yeah. How'd you get my voice?
That's because we have all of our audio available. It's creepy. It is weird. Stop it. Classy 97.
It's Josh and Chantel. Hey. Stahl. Stahl. Because I because I got the phone.
This is right. Lose your article? Yeah. I got it. You lost it?
I got it. You found it? Okay. Alright. So this happened a couple of days ago.
So this is old news. But when I read it, I went, oh, no. Baby Jessica part 2. Now baby Jessica was the baby who, was trapped in that tube. In a well.
Yeah. And was Lassie involved? No. No. She wasn't in a well.
It was like a in a well. Yeah. You're right. It might have been a well. I don't know.
But it wasn't like you happened in what? Late eighties, early nineties? That sounds about right. I remember being, like, riveted to that news story because she was about to Okay. They are calling it a well.
Knew it. And this was in Texas. Right? So in 1987. 87.
Yeah. She is 38 years old now. Yeah. So she wasn't that much younger than me, and I remember when that happened just being riveted to the TV. Like, I would watch all of the TV stories.
I was only 6 years old, but I was like, what? That can happen? I was terrified. Okay. So couple of days ago in Kansas, a 14 month old toddler fell down a pipe.
It was a foot wide, so not very big, and 12 feet deep. Scary. He wasn't seriously hurt. They tossed down a rope to him. They were like, we can get him out.
They tossed down a rope, but he wouldn't grab onto it, or he would grab onto it, but then let go. How old? 14 months. Yeah. That's really tough.
So they had to use a catch pull that's normally used for catching dogs. Oh, yeah. Like, the thing that the, the the cartoon they have them in real life, but the cartoon dog catchers. Yeah. Like, how does with the with the, the line through it.
Yeah. I know what you're talking about. Like the little Yeah. So that they can they can, yeah, capture animals. Yeah.
No. I'm with you. Okay. So that worked, and they were able to get him out in about 20 minutes. Fantastic.
And they have it all on video. Somebody had a chest cam, and they were all able to get it on video. He's fine. Totally fine. Totally safe.
But I read this story. Glad. Did they not have that well, how deep was the the baby Jessica thing? Oh, I don't know. I can't I don't know how.
She got lodged somehow. Like, it wasn't even the matter of the deepness. She just got had gotten, like, lodged in there. They they had nothing to to get out. She was in there for 58 hours.
It was an 8 inch well instead of 12, and she was about 22 feet below ground. Oh, man. Man, oh, man, indeed. Terrified. Yeah.
It was a PVC pipe, this little boy. A PVC pipe. Inch PVC pipe. 12 foot. No.
But you said 12 inches. It was a foot wide. It was a foot Oh, yeah. It was a foot wide, 12 feet deep. Unreal.
He's I'm glad everybody is okay. That's that's really good news, but yikes. Have there ever been moments in your in your later years in life, let's say the past 10 years? Later years. Listen.
The past 10 years Okay. Where you've stopped yourself and went, wow. That was something that my parents used to say. That was something my dad used to say. That was something my mom used to do.
As a parent, do you feel like you're becoming your parents? Less over the last 10 years. I would say early on, there were things like as, like when when Beck was I guess it it'd probably be about 10 years ago, 10 to 15 years ago. When he was between 5 10, I found myself, saying a lot of things that I then understood why my dad said those. Like, such as?
Put stuff back where it goes. I still say it today, but no one listens. No. Like the vacuum. Guess where it is?
Still next to the piano. Nobody's put it away. That's why. Can't. It has a place where it goes.
I'm not done with it. Dude, you're done with it. You've been done with it for days, clearly. The point is I don't need to get back on the vacuum thing. The but the point is that, like, that specifically was one that was told to me often, and it was you know, with my own stuff, I was pretty organized, and and I I kept my room clean and whatever, for the most part.
I mean, I'm a kid. Right? So I I would have had messes, but it wouldn't have been like a disaster. And I liked orderly things. I like things to be put away.
And so when, when I would borrow a screwdriver and it wouldn't get put back and he'd go to get the screwdriver and it was missing, And then he would find it in my room or where I'd left it in the project. Then it was like, put the stuff away where it goes. Right? Shame. So that as a lesson, I learned a lot as a kid.
And then as a a young parent, I went, dude, put stuff back it has a place where it goes. Put it away when you're done with it. And that same thing. I went, oh, I say that now, understanding where that motivation comes from. 20% of Americans are worried they're becoming their parents.
Do you ever feel worried you're becoming your parent? I think it's a worry. I don't I don't it's definitely not like a, oh, no. Like, I don't dread that. I mean, I'm doing my own thing for sure, on my own style, my own family, my own life.
But You have different problems that arise. Right. Most people first realize that they're acting like their parents at 30 years old. So that's about 10 Sounds about right. 10 to 15 years ago.
And it's it's those moments where you say something and you go, oh. Yeah. I've heard my mom say that. That has come out of my mom's mouth. I like when you get the other end of it where I've said things, and then the kids understand in real time what something means when they accidentally say it themselves.
What? Like, I say, hey. Look. The kids will complain. This is gonna take forever.
And I say, it takes as it takes. Right? It doesn't take it's not gonna take forever. It's there's an end to whatever it is that this thing is, and as long as we focus on that, we'll get through it. That's the message.
Say that. I know. I know. But then Emery was asking Beck something, and Beck said, no. It just takes as long as it Oh.
And mid sentence, he went, oh, no. But then that's just indoctrination. That's not him learning anything. That's just you But because he repetitively. Yeah.
But he processed it in the moment and went, I just said that, and then he realized he said it, but he also realized what it meant. And he went, now I understand. Oh, no. I know. He's like, no.
Right. Duh. Why have you done this? But that you know, I we for a long time, Beck Beck was like, I'm not gonna try. If it's hard, I can't.
He was an I can't kid for a long time, and and we spent a long time working on, don't say I can't. Like, you absolutely can. You have to challenge yourself, and sometimes things are hard, but you absolutely can. Don't don't build a wall of I can't before you even put forth effort. It was the I can't yet.
Yeah. That was the they didn't have to, like, try. I can. Right. You gotta like, I'm never gonna learn how to ride a bike.
Yeah. You are. No. I can't do it. Yeah.
Try it. Let's go. Like, that kind of attitude. Like, you gotta just do it. So these are advice pieces that get passed on.
And, eventually does this pertain to? Eventually, he's gonna be in a situation down the road, maybe starting his own family, whatever it is, and he's gonna have an I can't. And he's gonna go, no. You gotta do it. And then he'll be like, oh, no.
No. But it's never those good positive moments where you go, oh, I'm acting like it's the negative ones where you go, oh, no. I hated it when my mom said that. Yeah. I don't know if I've I don't know if I if I've necessarily had that kind of a moment.
But but definitely, I've had, oh, I've heard that before. And it's fine. It's cool. Just pass it on a little bit more. Here, have some more.
Don't break don't break the cycle. Just keep it going forever. Hey. Do you wanna go to a hatchelorette party? A hatchelorette.
Okay. So Can't. You're not invited. Well, I understand because it's a bachelorette party, which is for the bride. A bachelorette.
It's a hatchelorrette. Right. What are we hatching? Chickens? A baby.
What? So this is a new thing that's popping up with millennial moms. K. So they're doing a, like, a last minute girl's weekend or week vacation. Only women are invited.
So makes sense. No men. Fine. And it's like a last hurrah for a girl and her or a woman and her friends before a pregnant woman and their group of friends hatches, so to speak. So to speak.
I'm I'm still I don't understand. What do you what? I'm lost on the the hatching part. What are we talking about? A baby.
I see. Okay. I'm I'm working on it. So instead of a a marriage, bachelorette party Yes. There's gotta be a better name in there.
The hatching thing is just it doesn't feel like that's it. Come up with the name. I don't know who did. It's a millennial thing. A lot of people are saying, oh, it's so catchy.
Is it? Now they have also with millennials, they they started this, what's it called? I think it's called the babymoon where it's a couple Right. That takes the vacation before their baby comes. It's like a last like, this is the last time you and I are going to be single before the baby comes.
Let's do one big last hurrah. So now it's these moms that are like or soon to be moms rather that are like, hey, girlfriends. Right. Let's go out. One class, brah.
Once you have a kid, you have no social life. It's just done. So let's throw that out a little bit more. Okay. Sure.
I also feel and I'm all about a party. Well, depending. See, I'm all about leaving a party early. I know. How late is the party gonna last?
Right. How expensive is the party gonna be? Yeah. Let's let's be clear. Who is on the guest list?
Right. The older I get, the less likely I'm gonna wanna go to a party. I'm all about a party. No. I'm not.
Alright. I'm all about having a good time. Usually. But this feels exhausting. I feel like if you're trying to prep for a new baby to come in to the world and you're doing the nesting thing, you're trying to get all your p's and q's dotted.
Yeah. That's it. Dot your p's and q's. Your idioms are fantastic. An idiom.
Alright. Go on. Dot your p's and q's. I just feel now you have to plan a babymoon with your spouse. Now you have to plan aachelorette with your besties.
It just It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work and a lot of time, and I'm exhausted. I wouldn't be even growing a baby. What are you gonna do? Just feel I'm just old and tired.
I've I've got secondhand tiredness for all these soon to be new moms. I know. It's a lot. That now you gotta plan it, then you gotta do the thing. You got the budget.
You got the whole deal. It's work. It's work. Yeah. You know what's also work?
What? Hatching a baby. Exactly. There's gotta be a better name. Take a nap.
We can't. We gotta not call it hatching. I don't like that. It's not a good term. K.
They'll consult you next time. Yeah. They should. Normally, at this time, we would be, having a would you rather this or that question of the day. Doll.
But you, right before I turned on the microphone said, oh, I don't have one. Because you guys distracted me with I know. Something. I So I gotta behind the scenes in studio stuff happening. So I'll just I got one.
I got one. Listen to the music by myself while you while you pick. Okay. Alright. Would you rather travel to outer space or visit every country on Earth?
What do you think? You're gonna visit every country on Earth. 100%. Because you don't wanna go to space. And that is correct.
But every country? Some of the countries are scary, Josh. But I don't have to go where the scariness is. Oh, there's countries that it's scary everywhere. Are you sure?
I'm positive. How long do I have to stay in each country? 6 weeks. What? Hold on.
No. I'll say you get 3 days in each country. There are 195 countries. K. Doing some quick math.
It will take me 585 days to visit all countries for 3 days. For 3 days? 500 and 85 days? Yeah. There's 365 days in a year.
It's just short of 2 years. But you're not accounting travel time either. You gotta put some travel time in there. It's gonna take me 2 years to visit every country for 3 days. Whereas, if you go to space Oh, I'm going on the 2 year world tour.
Absolutely. See you in 2 years while you're in space for 5 minutes. I think I'm gonna go to every country too just because I think that's fascinating. Right. I wanna see every country.
Right. Wouldn't that be a cool Right. Like I've been to all 195 countries. Yeah. That's a cool bragging right.
Right. Yeah. I've been there. Oh, that weird country? Yeah.
I've been there. Right. That'd be cool. It would help you so much with geography to like, oh, yeah. I've I've been there.
I know every one of those countries. And then, yeah, do you get to pick what part of the country you go to? Yeah. Not the scary part. Not the scary part.
Would you rather this or that? It's Josh and Chantal. I've had it up to here. Where? Up to here.
