1
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,958
(upbeat music)

2
01:00:05,333 --> 01:00:06,125
Hashtag relatable.

3
01:00:06,916 --> 01:00:09,333
Hashtag relatable, like Olympus.

4
01:00:10,291 --> 01:00:12,333
Rising above the Serenget.

5
01:00:13,041 --> 01:00:13,500
We're always trying

6
01:00:13,500 --> 01:00:14,250
to be educational here.

7
01:00:14,583 --> 01:00:16,958
You shrink basically, so you contract.

8
01:00:17,791 --> 01:00:18,166
Guys, we have that.

9
01:00:18,333 --> 01:00:19,791
So, it's all good, we're good people.

10
01:00:20,250 --> 01:00:21,125
It always has been.

11
01:00:21,125 --> 01:00:21,708
Aww, aww.

12
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:24,291
So some things do change.

13
01:00:24,500 --> 01:00:25,500
This is so cool, you

14
01:00:25,500 --> 01:00:26,833
almost forget they're naked.

15
01:00:27,083 --> 01:00:28,416
By the way, you look like a buffoon.

16
01:00:29,666 --> 01:00:30,625
Really, you're gonna wear that?

17
01:00:31,166 --> 01:00:32,250
Yeah, millennials.

18
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:34,083
I'm good at a lot of things.

19
01:00:34,500 --> 01:00:35,708
I'm just not great at anything.

20
01:00:36,250 --> 01:00:37,166
You're a worthless

21
01:00:37,166 --> 01:00:38,708
talent, just for the record.

22
01:00:39,166 --> 01:00:40,583
Sadly, there's always somebody out there

23
01:00:40,583 --> 01:00:41,583
that's gonna do it better than you.

24
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:43,583
You saw his face in the video.

25
01:00:43,583 --> 01:00:44,625
Yeah, he was not a fan.

26
01:00:45,416 --> 01:00:46,208
Yeah, stop worrying about what other

27
01:00:46,208 --> 01:00:46,916
people think of you.

28
01:00:46,916 --> 01:00:47,333
You do you.

29
01:00:47,916 --> 01:00:48,833
See, I listen.

30
01:00:49,958 --> 01:00:50,750
I mean, you remember

31
01:00:50,750 --> 01:00:51,750
our first date, right?

32
01:00:52,416 --> 01:00:53,625
You make fun of me for it

33
01:00:53,625 --> 01:00:54,500
all the time, it comes up.

34
01:00:55,291 --> 01:00:55,708
Comes up.

35
01:00:56,041 --> 01:00:56,708
I know, it was--

36
01:00:56,916 --> 01:00:57,916
Sounds like it might come up again.

37
01:00:58,916 --> 01:01:00,000
I still don't see what's funny about it.

38
01:01:00,333 --> 01:01:01,083
Just to give it a kick.

39
01:01:01,333 --> 01:01:02,416
Oh, that was so hardcore.

40
01:01:03,083 --> 01:01:03,958
The quote, "metro

41
01:01:03,958 --> 01:01:06,958
sexual" was a label back then.

42
01:01:07,250 --> 01:01:08,666
And maybe I should have had

43
01:01:08,666 --> 01:01:09,708
a glass of wine, and then--

44
01:01:09,875 --> 01:01:10,666
Because these are one of these stories

45
01:01:10,666 --> 01:01:11,791
that we don't want our kids to hear.

46
01:01:12,666 --> 01:01:14,000
So while it hasn't been a dry January,

47
01:01:14,250 --> 01:01:14,708
it's definitely been

48
01:01:14,708 --> 01:01:17,291
more of like a damp January.

49
01:01:18,166 --> 01:01:19,833
Probably more acceptable in Vegas than--

50
01:01:19,833 --> 01:01:21,708
It absolutely is.

51
01:01:21,833 --> 01:01:23,083
They're also at an age

52
01:01:23,083 --> 01:01:24,583
where we're having conversations

53
01:01:24,875 --> 01:01:26,333
that are material.

54
01:01:26,916 --> 01:01:29,000
You'll never believe what dad told me.

55
01:01:29,541 --> 01:01:30,041
You know, I didn't

56
01:01:30,041 --> 01:01:31,208
know my biological father.

57
01:01:32,041 --> 01:01:32,958
I wanted to raise my kids

58
01:01:32,958 --> 01:01:34,166
differently than I was raised.

59
01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:36,291
Jumping out of a window, I

60
01:01:36,291 --> 01:01:37,333
could have got away with it

61
01:01:37,583 --> 01:01:39,166
because there's no proof of it.

62
01:01:39,208 --> 01:01:40,166
What are you going to

63
01:01:40,166 --> 01:01:41,791
do in the big moments

64
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,500
when it really matters?

65
01:01:44,625 --> 01:01:45,750
Your dad's being arrested at

66
01:01:45,750 --> 01:01:47,083
least for you for it, right?

67
01:01:47,375 --> 01:01:48,500
How can we trust you with the big things

68
01:01:48,500 --> 01:01:49,125
if we can't trust you

69
01:01:49,125 --> 01:01:49,791
with the small things?

70
01:01:50,125 --> 01:01:52,416
You were on the straight and narrow path.

71
01:01:52,833 --> 01:01:55,458
I was like the straight jacket path.

72
01:01:55,541 --> 01:01:58,500
There's a lot of junk on YouTube.

73
01:01:59,333 --> 01:01:59,500
Absolutely.

74
01:01:59,541 --> 01:02:00,500
And so we thought we'd

75
01:02:00,500 --> 01:02:01,458
put our own junk up there.

76
01:02:02,208 --> 01:02:02,625
I agree.

77
01:02:02,625 --> 01:02:04,125
Yeah, no, that's not on brand.

78
01:02:05,083 --> 01:02:06,958
You have to utilize social media.

79
01:02:07,458 --> 01:02:10,083
It is the conduit to the people.

80
01:02:10,583 --> 01:02:12,250
Wow, it really is

81
01:02:12,250 --> 01:02:13,708
falling far from grace, huh?

82
01:02:14,666 --> 01:02:15,291
Oh, I don't know how to

83
01:02:15,291 --> 01:02:16,541
turn on the TVs in our house.

84
01:02:17,041 --> 01:02:19,375
Wow, like that's your dream?

85
01:02:20,250 --> 01:02:22,250
Struck comedy gold with that one.

86
01:02:22,666 --> 01:02:23,500
A long time ago,

87
01:02:23,500 --> 01:02:24,833
didn't some book come out?

88
01:02:25,625 --> 01:02:27,750
Okay, well we are far from that goal.

89
01:02:28,125 --> 01:02:29,458
Are we taking bets on this?

90
01:02:29,708 --> 01:02:30,250
Do we care?

91
01:02:30,750 --> 01:02:32,375
For me, it's all about

92
01:02:32,375 --> 01:02:33,875
the time we spent together.

93
01:02:33,916 --> 01:02:34,458
I know everybody was

94
01:02:34,458 --> 01:02:35,416
waiting on this one too.

95
01:02:35,458 --> 01:02:36,500
Oh, that was another cliffhanger.

96
01:02:37,291 --> 01:02:39,125
Oh, you can do me more.

97
01:02:39,916 --> 01:02:41,166
You practically finished my...

98
01:02:42,083 --> 01:02:42,541
Sand castles.

99
01:02:45,291 --> 01:02:48,333
(laughing) You tried to hold it in.

100
01:02:50,458 --> 01:02:51,583
We cannot end with

101
01:02:51,583 --> 01:02:52,625
that every single time.

102
01:02:53,083 --> 01:02:54,125
Welcome to the Mr. and

103
01:02:54,125 --> 01:02:55,166
Mrs. English podcast.

104
01:02:55,500 --> 01:02:55,875
I'm Megan.

105
01:02:56,250 --> 01:02:56,833
And I'm Sean.

106
01:02:57,083 --> 01:02:58,166
We're here to talk about

107
01:02:58,166 --> 01:02:59,791
the wild ride of raising kids,

108
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,083
growing careers, keeping life together

109
01:03:02,083 --> 01:03:03,333
in the middle of all the chaos.

110
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,000
So buckle up, because we're all

111
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:07,416
in this crazy journey together.

112
01:03:10,708 --> 01:03:11,416
Two, seven.

113
01:03:11,458 --> 01:03:13,208
Two, seven, we're in February already.

114
01:03:16,333 --> 01:03:18,625
Okay, I think everything's rolling.

115
01:03:19,583 --> 01:03:23,166
And the last time I said, I muted it out,

116
01:03:23,166 --> 01:03:24,541
if in case anybody noticed it,

117
01:03:24,541 --> 01:03:26,875
but I was saying it's episode four,

118
01:03:27,083 --> 01:03:28,333
or it's episode three, when it was

119
01:03:28,333 --> 01:03:29,250
actually episode four.

120
01:03:29,750 --> 01:03:30,375
Yeah, so now we're

121
01:03:30,375 --> 01:03:31,541
recording episode five.

122
01:03:31,541 --> 01:03:32,875
Now we have to get it straight.

123
01:03:32,875 --> 01:03:33,875
We're on episode five.

124
01:03:34,291 --> 01:03:35,291
Moving into February now.

125
01:03:35,791 --> 01:03:36,000
Yep.

126
01:03:36,666 --> 01:03:37,375
Can you believe how fast

127
01:03:37,375 --> 01:03:38,250
the year is going already?

128
01:03:39,458 --> 01:03:39,666
No.

129
01:03:39,916 --> 01:03:40,500
It's February.

130
01:03:41,083 --> 01:03:42,416
I know, I know.

131
01:03:42,750 --> 01:03:43,750
I said that on morning cereal.

132
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,708
I said, hey, it was January 31st,

133
01:03:47,708 --> 01:03:48,250
was the last day of

134
01:03:48,250 --> 01:03:49,125
morning cereal that I said it,

135
01:03:49,166 --> 01:03:50,083
and I'm like, hey, no frets.

136
01:03:50,416 --> 01:03:51,208
You got a whole 12

137
01:03:51,208 --> 01:03:52,375
hours left to make January

138
01:03:52,375 --> 01:03:52,958
what you want it to

139
01:03:52,958 --> 01:03:53,666
because January's done.

140
01:03:54,458 --> 01:03:56,000
Hope you made the most of it.

141
01:03:56,375 --> 01:03:56,625
Right.

142
01:03:58,041 --> 01:03:59,250
It flew.

143
01:03:59,500 --> 01:04:00,375
And part of it, you were

144
01:04:00,375 --> 01:04:01,583
out of town for so long.

145
01:04:02,250 --> 01:04:03,125
It is, yeah.

146
01:04:03,125 --> 01:04:04,333
It's just getting back in.

147
01:04:04,625 --> 01:04:05,500
You know what I should do?

148
01:04:05,958 --> 01:04:06,166
What?

149
01:04:06,208 --> 01:04:06,791
Here, hold this.

150
01:04:07,083 --> 01:04:08,666
We're gonna cut in just a minute

151
01:04:08,666 --> 01:04:10,125
because I can't do Mr. and Mrs.

152
01:04:10,125 --> 01:04:11,500
without wearing my wedding ring.

153
01:04:12,041 --> 01:04:13,583
We don't wanna start some rumors, so.

154
01:04:13,625 --> 01:04:14,250
Right, exactly.

155
01:04:14,500 --> 01:04:15,500
I got mine on, so you--

156
01:04:15,583 --> 01:04:16,791
Hey, everybody, hold on.

157
01:04:17,125 --> 01:04:17,583
This is a cut.

158
01:04:17,750 --> 01:04:17,958
Pause.

159
01:04:19,541 --> 01:04:20,458
Talk amongst yourselves.

160
01:04:22,208 --> 01:04:23,333
It's just like coffee talk.

161
01:04:26,250 --> 01:04:26,791
Good to know.

162
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:29,750
All right, I'm back.

163
01:04:30,083 --> 01:04:31,458
Good news is I didn't lose my ring.

164
01:04:31,750 --> 01:04:32,541
Well, that's good.

165
01:04:32,916 --> 01:04:33,958
We both have it on.

166
01:04:33,958 --> 01:04:35,125
It truly is a Mr. and Mrs.

167
01:04:36,166 --> 01:04:36,958
Yeah, we're officially

168
01:04:36,958 --> 01:04:38,083
Mr. and Mrs. now, so.

169
01:04:38,750 --> 01:04:39,541
Welcome back, everybody.

170
01:04:40,791 --> 01:04:42,416
Yeah, geez, a lot of drama there

171
01:04:42,416 --> 01:04:43,375
at the very beginning of the show.

172
01:04:43,833 --> 01:04:44,000
Right.

173
01:04:44,500 --> 01:04:44,750
Lost ring.

174
01:04:45,125 --> 01:04:45,666
Lost ring.

175
01:04:45,666 --> 01:04:46,833
It's a hook, though.

176
01:04:47,833 --> 01:04:48,916
Hopefully it grabbed your

177
01:04:48,916 --> 01:04:50,666
attention for all that drama.

178
01:04:51,125 --> 01:04:51,333
Yeah.

179
01:04:51,666 --> 01:04:53,833
Well, we spent hours writing that.

180
01:04:54,291 --> 01:04:54,583
Hours?

181
01:04:54,583 --> 01:04:55,583
Coming up with that drama.

182
01:04:55,583 --> 01:04:56,666
It's comedy gold.

183
01:04:57,458 --> 01:04:59,500
But this, so you didn't have your--

184
01:04:59,583 --> 01:05:00,000
Comedic drama.

185
01:05:02,166 --> 01:05:02,916
I don't know, yeah.

186
01:05:02,958 --> 01:05:03,666
I thought it was, yeah.

187
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:05,583
I was more drama than comedy there.

188
01:05:06,333 --> 01:05:07,666
People were dying.

189
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:09,000
Oh, he lost his ring.

190
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:09,416
That's hilarious.

191
01:05:11,500 --> 01:05:12,416
It's not funny,

192
01:05:12,416 --> 01:05:13,250
because you actually

193
01:05:13,250 --> 01:05:14,458
have lost a wedding ring.

194
01:05:14,791 --> 01:05:15,250
That's true.

195
01:05:15,791 --> 01:05:16,250
That's true.

196
01:05:17,041 --> 01:05:19,583
The original wedding ring is

197
01:05:20,625 --> 01:05:22,000
somewhere in the Dominican Republic.

198
01:05:22,583 --> 01:05:23,208
Yeah, that thing floated

199
01:05:23,208 --> 01:05:24,083
straight to the bottom.

200
01:05:24,666 --> 01:05:25,833
So we have platinum

201
01:05:25,833 --> 01:05:27,541
rings, way off tangent here,

202
01:05:27,541 --> 01:05:28,541
but we have platinum rings.

203
01:05:29,375 --> 01:05:31,041
And the original ring,

204
01:05:31,875 --> 01:05:32,500
for those of you that

205
01:05:32,500 --> 01:05:33,041
were at our wedding,

206
01:05:34,291 --> 01:05:35,000
this is a small

207
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:35,958
percentage of people listening,

208
01:05:37,208 --> 01:05:38,750
at our wedding, I would

209
01:05:38,750 --> 01:05:40,041
literally put my hand,

210
01:05:40,500 --> 01:05:41,666
I'd let people hold my ring,

211
01:05:41,666 --> 01:05:42,375
because it was so heavy.

212
01:05:42,750 --> 01:05:43,916
Platinum in that time was

213
01:05:43,916 --> 01:05:45,166
less expensive than it is now.

214
01:05:45,833 --> 01:05:46,375
The pure metal.

215
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:48,833
And it was a quarter of a pound,

216
01:05:49,208 --> 01:05:50,750
is how much my ring weighed.

217
01:05:51,166 --> 01:05:51,916
And it was heavy.

218
01:05:52,458 --> 01:05:53,541
To give everybody an

219
01:05:53,541 --> 01:05:54,541
example of what it was,

220
01:05:54,541 --> 01:05:56,000
I'd put it in one hand and we

221
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,208
put a whole stick of butter.

222
01:05:58,166 --> 01:05:59,583
So if you ever hold a stick of butter,

223
01:05:59,583 --> 01:06:00,083
I don't know if that's

224
01:06:00,083 --> 01:06:01,000
old school or not either,

225
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:02,708
but a stick of butter in the other hand,

226
01:06:03,250 --> 01:06:04,375
which weighs exactly a

227
01:06:04,375 --> 01:06:05,500
quarter pound, by the way.

228
01:06:05,541 --> 01:06:05,791
Right.

229
01:06:06,458 --> 01:06:07,125
We're always trying

230
01:06:07,125 --> 01:06:07,958
to be educational here.

231
01:06:08,375 --> 01:06:08,916
Right, right.

232
01:06:10,083 --> 01:06:10,916
And they weighed the same.

233
01:06:11,375 --> 01:06:12,041
Yes. And they weighed the same.

234
01:06:12,458 --> 01:06:14,958
Yeah, and so we also weren't aware,

235
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,041
and another educational point,

236
01:06:17,791 --> 01:06:19,458
salt water, it makes your hands,

237
01:06:19,666 --> 01:06:21,041
or it makes you shrink,

238
01:06:21,541 --> 01:06:22,666
basically, or contract.

239
01:06:23,125 --> 01:06:23,791
Guys know that.

240
01:06:24,333 --> 01:06:24,708
Oh, okay.

241
01:06:25,208 --> 01:06:25,416
Didn't--

242
01:06:25,416 --> 01:06:26,166
Cold salt water.

243
01:06:26,833 --> 01:06:28,458
I was not aware of this,

244
01:06:28,458 --> 01:06:29,833
so even I'm learning things

245
01:06:29,833 --> 01:06:30,833
in this particular episode.

246
01:06:30,875 --> 01:06:32,291
George Costanza told us all about it,

247
01:06:32,500 --> 01:06:33,958
but that's another tangent, so go ahead.

248
01:06:34,416 --> 01:06:36,125
Yeah, but essentially your hands shrink

249
01:06:36,125 --> 01:06:37,666
when you get into salt water.

250
01:06:38,291 --> 01:06:40,375
So you had some

251
01:06:40,375 --> 01:06:41,333
contraction in your finger,

252
01:06:41,333 --> 01:06:42,250
your finger got skinny,

253
01:06:42,250 --> 01:06:44,375
and the ring sunk to the bottom.

254
01:06:45,375 --> 01:06:46,125
Quickly, because it was heavy,

255
01:06:46,458 --> 01:06:48,166
and I spent two days, it

256
01:06:48,166 --> 01:06:49,000
was before kids, right?

257
01:06:49,250 --> 01:06:50,333
Oh yeah, that was pre-kids.

258
01:06:50,333 --> 01:06:51,416
Yeah, yeah, it was early on.

259
01:06:52,416 --> 01:06:53,833
Long story short, the new ring,

260
01:06:53,833 --> 01:06:55,083
still the second original one,

261
01:06:55,708 --> 01:06:57,541
and it has survived,

262
01:06:57,875 --> 01:06:58,541
although I've had a

263
01:06:58,541 --> 01:07:00,000
couple scares here and there.

264
01:07:01,041 --> 01:07:02,791
But it survived, and it weighs less,

265
01:07:03,083 --> 01:07:04,708
because the whole point of the platinum

266
01:07:04,708 --> 01:07:06,125
being so expensive then was,

267
01:07:06,750 --> 01:07:08,791
it's quadruple the price that it is now.

268
01:07:09,375 --> 01:07:11,333
So the ring I have now is also platinum,

269
01:07:11,500 --> 01:07:13,458
but it weighs like a quarter of a bit.

270
01:07:14,041 --> 01:07:14,541
Yeah, a quarter of a quarter.

271
01:07:14,541 --> 01:07:16,291
So what is it, a 16th of a pound.

272
01:07:16,875 --> 01:07:17,666
I don't know if that math's right,

273
01:07:17,666 --> 01:07:18,333
because I went quick.

274
01:07:18,791 --> 01:07:21,250
Yeah, but drama and

275
01:07:21,250 --> 01:07:23,458
emergency evaded, right?

276
01:07:23,458 --> 01:07:24,541
We did find the ring, it

277
01:07:24,541 --> 01:07:26,541
was just in your little thing

278
01:07:26,541 --> 01:07:27,583
right on your sink.

279
01:07:27,625 --> 01:07:28,541
Yeah, yeah.

280
01:07:28,541 --> 01:07:29,791
It's all good, we're good people.

281
01:07:30,958 --> 01:07:31,625
We're good people.

282
01:07:32,291 --> 01:07:33,333
So, and I did wear it

283
01:07:33,333 --> 01:07:34,041
when I was in Vegas,

284
01:07:34,541 --> 01:07:35,000
because here's the

285
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:36,083
other cliffhanger, right,

286
01:07:36,083 --> 01:07:37,000
that we left everybody with.

287
01:07:37,250 --> 01:07:38,291
I know everybody was like,

288
01:07:38,291 --> 01:07:39,833
we gotta tune in to

289
01:07:39,833 --> 01:07:40,833
Sean and Megan's podcast,

290
01:07:41,250 --> 01:07:42,833
because Sean was gonna

291
01:07:42,833 --> 01:07:44,083
find out for all of us.

292
01:07:44,125 --> 01:07:44,416
Right.

293
01:07:45,083 --> 01:07:45,916
Right, whether or not

294
01:07:45,916 --> 01:07:48,375
Michael Jackson's Cirque du Soleil

295
01:07:48,708 --> 01:07:50,000
one show was still in Vegas.

296
01:07:50,375 --> 01:07:52,375
Yes, and the result is?

297
01:07:52,625 --> 01:07:53,000
It is.

298
01:07:53,875 --> 01:07:53,916
Yes!

299
01:07:56,125 --> 01:07:57,750
It's like, it is, yeah.

300
01:07:58,083 --> 01:07:59,000
It always has been.

301
01:07:59,208 --> 01:07:59,458
Aw, aw.

302
01:08:00,750 --> 01:08:02,125
But just to confirm it was there,

303
01:08:02,125 --> 01:08:03,000
not just posters everywhere,

304
01:08:03,208 --> 01:08:04,166
Bear and I went and saw it.

305
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:05,750
And obviously, I

306
01:08:05,750 --> 01:08:07,083
mean, generationally Gen X

307
01:08:07,083 --> 01:08:09,750
or even good Gen X,

308
01:08:10,416 --> 01:08:12,666
I mean, if you're a parent of Gen X,

309
01:08:13,083 --> 01:08:14,333
from the Gen X generation,

310
01:08:14,333 --> 01:08:16,083
if you're a parent worth anything,

311
01:08:16,708 --> 01:08:17,833
your kids should know

312
01:08:17,833 --> 01:08:19,166
Michael Jackson, right?

313
01:08:20,041 --> 01:08:20,250
Absolutely.

314
01:08:20,625 --> 01:08:21,791
Yeah, so Bear loved it,

315
01:08:21,791 --> 01:08:22,958
because they played all,

316
01:08:22,958 --> 01:08:25,333
most of his hits, really cool.

317
01:08:25,583 --> 01:08:26,250
It was a little less

318
01:08:26,250 --> 01:08:28,875
Cirque du Soleil than say,

319
01:08:28,875 --> 01:08:30,416
oh, was, or some of the other ones

320
01:08:30,416 --> 01:08:30,958
that we've seen over

321
01:08:30,958 --> 01:08:32,791
there, Raw and Zumanity.

322
01:08:33,166 --> 01:08:34,208
You know, to that point,

323
01:08:34,625 --> 01:08:36,666
Zumanity is no longer there.

324
01:08:37,083 --> 01:08:38,416
So some things do change.

325
01:08:38,625 --> 01:08:40,041
Remember, we figured that out

326
01:08:40,041 --> 01:08:41,083
when we went back last year.

327
01:08:41,125 --> 01:08:44,458
Yes, and I think you had a famous quote.

328
01:08:45,041 --> 01:08:46,083
We went to Zumanity again,

329
01:08:46,875 --> 01:08:48,416
we're early marriage probably.

330
01:08:49,250 --> 01:08:50,916
And that is an adult Cirque show.

331
01:08:51,125 --> 01:08:52,000
It was an adult Cirque show.

332
01:08:52,041 --> 01:08:53,208
It was an adult Cirque show.

333
01:08:53,583 --> 01:08:56,583
And Innocent Sean leans over to me,

334
01:08:56,583 --> 01:08:57,833
middle of the show, and he's like,

335
01:08:58,291 --> 01:08:59,208
this is so cool, you

336
01:08:59,208 --> 01:09:00,541
almost forget they're naked.

337
01:09:02,125 --> 01:09:03,208
They're topless, but yeah.

338
01:09:03,708 --> 01:09:05,666
It was hilarious.

339
01:09:06,083 --> 01:09:07,000
I'm like, yep, almost.

340
01:09:08,041 --> 01:09:08,833
We might lead with that

341
01:09:08,833 --> 01:09:10,000
one on the highlights.

342
01:09:12,250 --> 01:09:12,416
(laughs)

343
01:09:12,416 --> 01:09:16,500
So yeah, it was fun, a great show.

344
01:09:16,875 --> 01:09:18,416
It was funny because Bear and I got in,

345
01:09:18,416 --> 01:09:19,416
we were heading late,

346
01:09:19,416 --> 01:09:20,583
we got there late almost,

347
01:09:20,750 --> 01:09:21,666
running in to get on

348
01:09:21,666 --> 01:09:22,833
time, for whatever reason.

349
01:09:23,500 --> 01:09:24,416
Oh, he told me why, but

350
01:09:24,416 --> 01:09:25,166
keep going with your story

351
01:09:25,166 --> 01:09:26,291
and I'll remind you.

352
01:09:26,541 --> 01:09:27,208
Okay. Keep going.

353
01:09:27,416 --> 01:09:28,250
Yeah, so we're sitting

354
01:09:28,250 --> 01:09:29,791
down, we get down to our seats,

355
01:09:29,791 --> 01:09:30,541
we sit down, and I'm

356
01:09:30,541 --> 01:09:31,375
trying to take a picture,

357
01:09:31,625 --> 01:09:32,750
you know, of Bear and I

358
01:09:32,750 --> 01:09:34,083
with a stage in the background.

359
01:09:34,750 --> 01:09:37,000
And this girl kind of gets in,

360
01:09:37,250 --> 01:09:38,083
if you saw my Instagram

361
01:09:38,083 --> 01:09:40,291
post, which if you looked at it,

362
01:09:40,291 --> 01:09:41,916
there's a slight pink blur

363
01:09:41,916 --> 01:09:43,833
behind Bear and I in the stage.

364
01:09:44,541 --> 01:09:45,000
And I didn't even

365
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:46,333
notice it really at the time,

366
01:09:46,333 --> 01:09:47,708
because people were taking their seats.

367
01:09:48,291 --> 01:09:49,333
But the long and the short of it,

368
01:09:49,333 --> 01:09:50,416
the guy that she was with,

369
01:09:50,833 --> 01:09:52,416
and you see all kinds of people in Vegas,

370
01:09:52,416 --> 01:09:54,125
so you just, you never know.

371
01:09:54,125 --> 01:09:54,958
I mean, when we lived there,

372
01:09:54,958 --> 01:09:55,666
we saw a lot of people

373
01:09:55,666 --> 01:09:56,583
dressed really weird,

374
01:09:56,583 --> 01:09:57,333
and that was normal.

375
01:09:58,125 --> 01:09:58,833
So I didn't think

376
01:09:58,833 --> 01:09:59,916
much of these two people,

377
01:09:59,916 --> 01:10:01,125
but he actually said to me,

378
01:10:01,458 --> 01:10:02,875
like one foot away from me,

379
01:10:02,875 --> 01:10:04,000
he's like, oh, sorry about that,

380
01:10:04,291 --> 01:10:05,666
like, sorry she was in your shot.

381
01:10:06,291 --> 01:10:07,666
I was like, oh, no big deal, you know?

382
01:10:08,125 --> 01:10:09,375
Like have a great night, whatever.

383
01:10:09,875 --> 01:10:11,000
Long story short, they're

384
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:12,625
the two stars in the show.

385
01:10:13,125 --> 01:10:14,041
Oh my gosh, really?

386
01:10:14,291 --> 01:10:15,208
Yeah, yeah, because

387
01:10:15,208 --> 01:10:16,500
there's like five people

388
01:10:17,041 --> 01:10:18,250
that kind of like take

389
01:10:18,250 --> 01:10:19,833
on Michael Jackson's.

390
01:10:19,833 --> 01:10:21,250
One's his shoes, one's

391
01:10:21,250 --> 01:10:23,000
his glove, one's his hat,

392
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:23,875
one's his sunglasses.

393
01:10:24,583 --> 01:10:25,208
I can't remember what

394
01:10:25,208 --> 01:10:25,916
the other one was now,

395
01:10:26,125 --> 01:10:27,500
but they were, she was the

396
01:10:27,500 --> 01:10:28,791
sunglasses and he was the shoes.

397
01:10:29,250 --> 01:10:31,041
Oh my gosh, that's super cool.

398
01:10:31,083 --> 01:10:31,833
Yeah, yeah.

399
01:10:32,041 --> 01:10:33,083
So I'm glad I wasn't

400
01:10:33,083 --> 01:10:34,291
like, thanks a lot, man,

401
01:10:34,291 --> 01:10:35,041
you ruined it.

402
01:10:35,125 --> 01:10:36,833
And by the way, you look like a buffoon.

403
01:10:37,916 --> 01:10:38,875
Really, you're gonna wear that?

404
01:10:39,375 --> 01:10:40,500
Yeah, millennials.

405
01:10:43,416 --> 01:10:44,250
I had no idea.

406
01:10:44,250 --> 01:10:45,791
Well, you said it was a great show.

407
01:10:46,125 --> 01:10:47,166
It was, it was awesome.

408
01:10:47,500 --> 01:10:48,458
It's talent that I wish I

409
01:10:48,458 --> 01:10:49,750
had, but I love watching it.

410
01:10:49,750 --> 01:10:50,500
I'm just so impressed with

411
01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:51,875
people that have that talent

412
01:10:51,875 --> 01:10:53,125
to dance and sing, it's

413
01:10:53,125 --> 01:10:53,958
just, it's cool talent.

414
01:10:54,458 --> 01:10:56,541
It is, and it reminds, I think, people

415
01:10:56,541 --> 01:10:57,541
who get to watch it,

416
01:10:58,000 --> 01:10:59,500
just like, oh my gosh, I'm so thankful

417
01:10:59,500 --> 01:11:00,875
there are really talented people

418
01:11:00,875 --> 01:11:01,916
because I enjoy watching

419
01:11:01,916 --> 01:11:03,166
those really talented people.

420
01:11:03,833 --> 01:11:04,500
It was funny as we

421
01:11:04,500 --> 01:11:05,500
were preparing for this,

422
01:11:06,166 --> 01:11:07,125
and I was thinking about last week,

423
01:11:07,125 --> 01:11:07,958
what we talked about in

424
01:11:07,958 --> 01:11:09,375
confidence at work and whatnot.

425
01:11:09,375 --> 01:11:10,750
I was literally just thinking about this,

426
01:11:11,916 --> 01:11:13,041
that that would have been

427
01:11:13,041 --> 01:11:14,708
a good point to bring up

428
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,333
on last week's show was how we always

429
01:11:18,333 --> 01:11:19,708
just laugh about like,

430
01:11:20,166 --> 01:11:22,958
man, I am, I'm good at a lot of things.

431
01:11:22,958 --> 01:11:24,750
Like I can do all kinds of things, right?

432
01:11:24,750 --> 01:11:25,708
And I'm not shy about that.

433
01:11:25,708 --> 01:11:26,708
I'm good at a lot of things.

434
01:11:27,125 --> 01:11:28,416
I'm just not great at anything.

435
01:11:28,916 --> 01:11:29,875
You're a jack of all

436
01:11:29,875 --> 01:11:30,750
trade master of none.

437
01:11:31,250 --> 01:11:32,541
Yeah, that's exactly what it is.

438
01:11:32,583 --> 01:11:34,166
But that is just, you

439
01:11:34,166 --> 01:11:34,791
know, that's average.

440
01:11:35,041 --> 01:11:35,750
It just kind of fades

441
01:11:35,750 --> 01:11:37,000
into the minutia sometimes,

442
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:37,916
and it's frustrating.

443
01:11:38,333 --> 01:11:41,000
I wish I was, you know, really good at

444
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:42,083
something like that.

445
01:11:42,541 --> 01:11:43,958
Be really cool, but I'm not.

446
01:11:45,083 --> 01:11:46,333
It would be really cool.

447
01:11:46,708 --> 01:11:48,500
But the other thing we talk about is,

448
01:11:48,708 --> 01:11:49,416
yeah, sure, jack of all

449
01:11:49,416 --> 01:11:50,625
trades, master of none.

450
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:52,833
But if you're really only good at,

451
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,666
if you're exceptional at one thing,

452
01:11:55,166 --> 01:11:56,458
and that's what you have to do.

453
01:11:56,666 --> 01:11:57,625
And if you can't make

454
01:11:57,625 --> 01:11:58,833
that one thing work,

455
01:11:58,833 --> 01:11:59,583
then what do you do?

456
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:00,791
At least you have backups.

457
01:12:01,416 --> 01:12:03,250
If you're just like me and

458
01:12:03,250 --> 01:12:04,708
just kind of average, right?

459
01:12:05,375 --> 01:12:07,375
Because you say the same thing, right?

460
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:09,083
I could go a lot of different directions

461
01:12:09,083 --> 01:12:09,625
because I'm not

462
01:12:09,625 --> 01:12:11,833
exceptional at one particular thing.

463
01:12:11,875 --> 01:12:12,500
And I think we're above

464
01:12:12,500 --> 01:12:13,541
average at some things.

465
01:12:13,541 --> 01:12:14,625
And I mean, like, how

466
01:12:14,625 --> 01:12:15,416
many people out there

467
01:12:15,416 --> 01:12:16,250
feel that same way?

468
01:12:16,250 --> 01:12:17,416
I would imagine a lot of people are like,

469
01:12:17,416 --> 01:12:18,375
I am really good at this.

470
01:12:18,375 --> 01:12:19,666
Like, I just do this well.

471
01:12:19,916 --> 01:12:20,833
Whatever it may be that

472
01:12:20,833 --> 01:12:23,083
you do well, you know,

473
01:12:23,083 --> 01:12:24,583
but ultimately, like we

474
01:12:24,583 --> 01:12:25,375
tell our kids, you know,

475
01:12:26,041 --> 01:12:27,583
sadly there's always somebody out there

476
01:12:27,583 --> 01:12:28,666
that's gonna do it better than you.

477
01:12:28,666 --> 01:12:28,916
Yeah.

478
01:12:29,791 --> 01:12:30,000
Usually.

479
01:12:30,875 --> 01:12:32,500
I mean, there's a handful

480
01:12:32,500 --> 01:12:33,958
that we all know are, you know,

481
01:12:33,958 --> 01:12:34,666
the goat, but.

482
01:12:35,125 --> 01:12:36,666
Right, but you gotta do you.

483
01:12:36,958 --> 01:12:37,625
You gotta do you.

484
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:38,625
Be true to yourself.

485
01:12:39,041 --> 01:12:40,500
Yeah, that was a quote on Morning Serial

486
01:12:40,875 --> 01:12:41,625
at one point this week.

487
01:12:42,083 --> 01:12:43,041
See, I listen.

488
01:12:43,333 --> 01:12:44,750
And you listen very well,

489
01:12:45,125 --> 01:12:47,250
and you have a memory that's top-notch.

490
01:12:47,250 --> 01:12:47,625
It's incredible.

491
01:12:48,125 --> 01:12:48,791
Megan was showing it

492
01:12:48,791 --> 01:12:49,541
off on the sidelines,

493
01:12:50,083 --> 01:12:50,875
and I wish you were there,

494
01:12:50,875 --> 01:12:52,250
because there's two of the dads

495
01:12:52,250 --> 01:12:53,000
were kind of going back

496
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:54,500
and forth on Anchorman,

497
01:12:54,833 --> 01:12:56,916
and then they threw in some Top Gun,

498
01:12:56,916 --> 01:12:57,750
and Megan wasn't there for

499
01:12:57,750 --> 01:12:58,416
one of the conversations,

500
01:12:58,708 --> 01:13:01,416
and Megan's got like an idyllic memory.

501
01:13:01,625 --> 01:13:02,375
Uh, I'm--

502
01:13:02,750 --> 01:13:04,416
I mean, like, it's very close.

503
01:13:04,625 --> 01:13:06,041
I mean, you have

504
01:13:06,041 --> 01:13:09,375
verbatim memorized movies,

505
01:13:09,625 --> 01:13:10,500
movie scenes without

506
01:13:10,500 --> 01:13:11,875
like memorizing them.

507
01:13:11,875 --> 01:13:12,708
You just know them.

508
01:13:13,375 --> 01:13:14,750
In fact, yesterday was funny,

509
01:13:14,750 --> 01:13:17,208
because I won't go too into detail on it,

510
01:13:17,208 --> 01:13:18,583
but after the fact, we got into the car,

511
01:13:18,583 --> 01:13:19,875
and you said, "Just for the record,"

512
01:13:20,458 --> 01:13:21,666
he didn't quote that exact.

513
01:13:22,666 --> 01:13:23,166
He misquoted.

514
01:13:23,708 --> 01:13:24,333
I did say that.

515
01:13:25,458 --> 01:13:29,500
Now, I have watched that movie a ton.

516
01:13:29,500 --> 01:13:30,000
It was one of my

517
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:31,125
favorite movies as a kid,

518
01:13:31,541 --> 01:13:34,208
so for me not to know it

519
01:13:34,208 --> 01:13:35,500
would have been a shame,

520
01:13:36,041 --> 01:13:37,083
and would have really

521
01:13:37,083 --> 01:13:38,125
then just been a waste

522
01:13:38,125 --> 01:13:41,750
of all the tens, if not hundreds of hours

523
01:13:41,750 --> 01:13:43,291
I spent in my life watching that movie.

524
01:13:44,083 --> 01:13:45,166
Well, I mean, like, Anchorman,

525
01:13:45,166 --> 01:13:47,125
I've seen that movie twice,

526
01:13:47,750 --> 01:13:49,125
but it's got so many one-liners

527
01:13:49,125 --> 01:13:49,708
that I've probably seen

528
01:13:49,708 --> 01:13:51,083
those one-liners a hundred times,

529
01:13:51,083 --> 01:13:52,125
you know, on clips or

530
01:13:52,125 --> 01:13:52,916
whatever they might be.

531
01:13:52,916 --> 01:13:53,916
You punted Baxter.

532
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,000
I just stood there like a puppy, like,

533
01:13:57,166 --> 01:13:57,958
"Yeah, yeah, that's a funny one,"

534
01:13:57,958 --> 01:13:59,250
and then he goes and he says his,

535
01:13:59,250 --> 01:13:59,875
and I go, "Oh, yeah, yeah, that's funny,"

536
01:13:59,875 --> 01:14:00,791
and I'm trying to think.

537
01:14:00,958 --> 01:14:02,041
My brain's like, "Blip,

538
01:14:02,041 --> 01:14:03,000
blip, blip, blip, blip, blip,"

539
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,500
and once I find one, it's like,

540
01:14:04,666 --> 01:14:05,625
"Oh, he just said that one,"

541
01:14:05,625 --> 01:14:06,333
you know, "Blip, blip,

542
01:14:06,333 --> 01:14:07,000
blip, blip, blip, blip,"

543
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:08,041
trying to find it again,

544
01:14:08,250 --> 01:14:10,666
and I got in maybe one of them.

545
01:14:11,500 --> 01:14:13,208
I think mine was, "That

546
01:14:13,208 --> 01:14:14,416
escalated really quickly."

547
01:14:16,916 --> 01:14:18,000
(laughing) But one of them, he

548
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:19,875
was already on his 15th,

549
01:14:19,875 --> 01:14:20,750
you know, because he

550
01:14:20,750 --> 01:14:22,416
had 20 and I had won,

551
01:14:22,416 --> 01:14:23,250
so I eventually just

552
01:14:23,250 --> 01:14:25,125
kind of like slinked away.

553
01:14:25,875 --> 01:14:26,000
(laughing)

554
01:14:26,083 --> 01:14:27,666
But your thing, I would say,

555
01:14:27,666 --> 01:14:29,333
so I can memorize movie quotes,

556
01:14:30,083 --> 01:14:32,041
worthless talent, just for the record.

557
01:14:33,416 --> 01:14:35,708
You can do songs, like you will hear

558
01:14:36,083 --> 01:14:37,791
the first note of a song

559
01:14:38,208 --> 01:14:39,916
and know exactly what that song is,

560
01:14:39,916 --> 01:14:40,208
and you'll be like,

561
01:14:40,208 --> 01:14:41,291
"Oh, I love this song,"

562
01:14:41,750 --> 01:14:43,416
and I'm like, "I have no

563
01:14:43,416 --> 01:14:44,291
idea what you're talking about."

564
01:14:44,291 --> 01:14:45,875
And I can sing it on key, too.

565
01:14:46,125 --> 01:14:47,458
Most people think of that. Yes, yes.

566
01:14:48,250 --> 01:14:48,958
I wouldn't know, you've

567
01:14:48,958 --> 01:14:49,833
never sung in front of me.

568
01:14:49,875 --> 01:14:50,416
I'm just kidding, that's

569
01:14:50,416 --> 01:14:51,333
a total lie, I can't sing.

570
01:14:52,333 --> 01:14:53,375
I have no real talent

571
01:14:53,375 --> 01:14:55,125
whatsoever, that's usable.

572
01:14:55,125 --> 01:14:56,250
It's not true, it's

573
01:14:56,250 --> 01:14:57,208
just Jack of all trade,

574
01:14:57,458 --> 01:14:58,041
master of none.

575
01:14:58,333 --> 01:15:00,625
Yeah, I know, but I don't like that, so.

576
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,916
Anywho, Vegas was fun, you know,

577
01:15:04,458 --> 01:15:05,875
got to spend some time getting to know

578
01:15:06,041 --> 01:15:07,333
more of the parents on

579
01:15:07,333 --> 01:15:09,291
our oldest soccer team,

580
01:15:09,708 --> 01:15:11,416
which was nice, because that's a team

581
01:15:11,416 --> 01:15:12,708
that we just joined this year.

582
01:15:13,500 --> 01:15:15,916
We just haven't spent a

583
01:15:15,916 --> 01:15:16,541
lot of time with them,

584
01:15:16,541 --> 01:15:17,083
for whatever reason.

585
01:15:17,375 --> 01:15:18,041
I think there's some newer

586
01:15:18,041 --> 01:15:18,916
people on the team, whatnot.

587
01:15:18,916 --> 01:15:20,291
So that was great, seeing those guys.

588
01:15:20,333 --> 01:15:21,458
We stayed at the Mandalay Bay,

589
01:15:21,458 --> 01:15:23,708
which was a nicer spot to stay at,

590
01:15:23,708 --> 01:15:24,750
got a nice steak dinner.

591
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:26,333
I got to try some more bourbon.

592
01:15:26,666 --> 01:15:27,375
Probably a bigger sip

593
01:15:27,375 --> 01:15:28,333
than I usually give him,

594
01:15:28,666 --> 01:15:29,500
and you saw his face

595
01:15:29,500 --> 01:15:30,375
in the video, I think.

596
01:15:30,416 --> 01:15:31,416
Yeah, he was not a fan.

597
01:15:32,416 --> 01:15:34,500
It was a, "Why would you do this?"

598
01:15:35,208 --> 01:15:35,958
Kind of a face.

599
01:15:36,166 --> 01:15:37,916
Gosh, when was the first

600
01:15:37,916 --> 01:15:39,000
time you tasted alcohol?

601
01:15:40,250 --> 01:15:43,166
I was young, so.

602
01:15:43,458 --> 01:15:43,666
Four?

603
01:15:44,625 --> 01:15:46,333
No, I mean not four, but.

604
01:15:46,541 --> 01:15:47,541
My grandma used to say

605
01:15:47,541 --> 01:15:48,208
they would put whiskey

606
01:15:48,208 --> 01:15:49,875
on our gums to make us go to sleep.

607
01:15:50,166 --> 01:15:51,958
Yeah, I would say, I

608
01:15:51,958 --> 01:15:52,750
think a lot of grandparents

609
01:15:52,750 --> 01:15:55,000
did that, like our grandparents' age.

610
01:15:55,250 --> 01:15:55,500
Yeah.

611
01:15:56,750 --> 01:15:59,125
So what we would do when I was a kid is,

612
01:15:59,375 --> 01:16:01,541
my dad would have his Manhattans,

613
01:16:01,541 --> 01:16:03,083
that was kind of his drink.

614
01:16:03,875 --> 01:16:06,208
And so he'd be grilling, and we'd go out,

615
01:16:06,208 --> 01:16:07,000
and he would let us have

616
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:08,875
teeny tiny sips of his Manhattan.

617
01:16:09,750 --> 01:16:12,250
And I just remember it evaporating.

618
01:16:12,625 --> 01:16:13,291
How old were you?

619
01:16:14,541 --> 01:16:16,666
I would have been maybe fourth grade

620
01:16:16,666 --> 01:16:19,208
that I can remember by the first time.

621
01:16:19,250 --> 01:16:20,875
But, I mean, it's terrible.

622
01:16:20,875 --> 01:16:21,916
It's not like you were chugging it,

623
01:16:21,916 --> 01:16:23,625
and yeah, you have to develop a taste.

624
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:27,083
It was not a pleasant experience at all.

625
01:16:27,083 --> 01:16:29,416
It was just like, "Dad, let us try it."

626
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:31,583
Yeah, I remember once,

627
01:16:31,583 --> 01:16:32,583
and that wasn't the first time I tasted,

628
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:33,958
but some of those

629
01:16:33,958 --> 01:16:35,208
things, like a good bourbon,

630
01:16:35,625 --> 01:16:37,958
or wine for sure, you have to develop

631
01:16:37,958 --> 01:16:39,416
a little bit of a palate for it, right?

632
01:16:39,750 --> 01:16:40,166
Absolutely.

633
01:16:40,458 --> 01:16:41,541
It's not immediately you tasted it,

634
01:16:41,541 --> 01:16:42,000
like this is the

635
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:42,791
greatest thing in the world.

636
01:16:43,166 --> 01:16:44,541
In fact, beers like that with me,

637
01:16:44,791 --> 01:16:46,458
I am not friends with

638
01:16:46,458 --> 01:16:47,625
a lot of people I know,

639
01:16:47,958 --> 01:16:49,250
simply because I don't drink beer.

640
01:16:49,500 --> 01:16:50,458
I just, I don't like it.

641
01:16:50,791 --> 01:16:51,416
For whatever reason, I

642
01:16:51,416 --> 01:16:53,541
can't get on board there.

643
01:16:53,625 --> 01:16:54,916
You tried, honestly.

644
01:16:55,125 --> 01:16:56,958
You gave it the good college try.

645
01:16:57,666 --> 01:16:58,416
Pun probably intended

646
01:16:58,416 --> 01:16:59,416
there with college and beer.

647
01:16:59,625 --> 01:17:02,291
But, you know, when we were early dating,

648
01:17:02,291 --> 01:17:03,416
because my family is

649
01:17:03,416 --> 01:17:04,333
primarily beer drinkers,

650
01:17:04,708 --> 01:17:05,916
and I drank beer.

651
01:17:06,166 --> 01:17:06,416
Yeah.

652
01:17:07,291 --> 01:17:08,041
I mean, you remember

653
01:17:08,041 --> 01:17:09,000
our first date, right?

654
01:17:10,041 --> 01:17:10,500
Yeah, of course.

655
01:17:11,583 --> 01:17:12,833
You make fun of me for it all the time.

656
01:17:12,833 --> 01:17:13,333
It comes up.

657
01:17:13,875 --> 01:17:14,500
It comes up.

658
01:17:14,791 --> 01:17:15,500
I know, it was--

659
01:17:15,750 --> 01:17:16,666
Sounds like it might come up again.

660
01:17:17,166 --> 01:17:17,500
I know.

661
01:17:18,416 --> 01:17:19,166
It was fabulous.

662
01:17:20,083 --> 01:17:22,500
We go to a bar, right?

663
01:17:22,583 --> 01:17:23,875
I mean, or it was a--

664
01:17:23,916 --> 01:17:24,500
It was a sports bar.

665
01:17:24,500 --> 01:17:25,000
Sports bar.

666
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:26,333
Because there was pool and whatnot there.

667
01:17:26,333 --> 01:17:26,541
Yeah.

668
01:17:27,208 --> 01:17:29,250
And you ordered a grilled

669
01:17:29,250 --> 01:17:31,250
chicken and a Smirnoff ras,

670
01:17:32,166 --> 01:17:33,791
and I ordered a burger and beer.

671
01:17:34,666 --> 01:17:35,000
And--

672
01:17:35,375 --> 01:17:36,750
I still don't see what's funny about it.

673
01:17:37,666 --> 01:17:39,000
Smirnoff ras is awesome.

674
01:17:39,500 --> 01:17:40,333
In fact, if you recall, I

675
01:17:40,333 --> 01:17:41,916
drank it down at two inches,

676
01:17:42,500 --> 01:17:44,333
and I asked the waitress kindly

677
01:17:44,333 --> 01:17:46,041
if she'd give me a shot of Smirnoff

678
01:17:46,250 --> 01:17:47,500
to top off my Smirnoff

679
01:17:47,500 --> 01:17:49,083
ras, just to give it a kick.

680
01:17:49,083 --> 01:17:49,958
Just to give it a kick.

681
01:17:50,375 --> 01:17:51,208
Oh, that was so hardcore.

682
01:17:53,291 --> 01:17:55,041
Yeah, you were definitely more of the man

683
01:17:55,041 --> 01:17:56,125
on that order than I was.

684
01:17:56,708 --> 01:17:57,833
Yeah, although then, of

685
01:17:57,833 --> 01:18:00,083
course, we played pool,

686
01:18:00,333 --> 01:18:02,041
and then you were like, no, no, no.

687
01:18:02,041 --> 01:18:03,708
I do know my way around a sports bar

688
01:18:03,958 --> 01:18:05,875
because you did crush me at pool.

689
01:18:06,583 --> 01:18:07,708
Rightfully so, I'm terrible.

690
01:18:08,791 --> 01:18:09,708
Not good either, so.

691
01:18:10,791 --> 01:18:12,000
That's how I won my

692
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:12,916
man card back, though,

693
01:18:12,916 --> 01:18:14,125
is because I destroyed you at pool.

694
01:18:15,166 --> 01:18:15,541
Not really.

695
01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:17,666
It didn't bother me, but

696
01:18:17,666 --> 01:18:18,791
we did think it was funny

697
01:18:19,083 --> 01:18:22,125
because when the server brought our food,

698
01:18:22,625 --> 01:18:24,583
they handed you the burger and beer

699
01:18:24,583 --> 01:18:25,666
and handed me the grilled

700
01:18:25,666 --> 01:18:27,625
chicken and Smirnoff ras.

701
01:18:27,666 --> 01:18:28,416
I did forget that part.

702
01:18:28,708 --> 01:18:30,250
So, that was the funny part to me,

703
01:18:30,250 --> 01:18:32,458
was that the server mixed it up.

704
01:18:32,458 --> 01:18:33,458
That was a time, what,

705
01:18:33,458 --> 01:18:34,750
I was 27 then, maybe?

706
01:18:35,250 --> 01:18:36,083
27, 28, yeah.

707
01:18:36,083 --> 01:18:37,000
Yeah, somewhere in there.

708
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:38,250
I've always tried to eat healthy,

709
01:18:38,458 --> 01:18:39,958
but that was a time in my life,

710
01:18:40,250 --> 01:18:41,125
some of my friends who

711
01:18:41,125 --> 01:18:41,875
may listen to this too

712
01:18:41,916 --> 01:18:43,500
remember the time, and I brought it up

713
01:18:43,666 --> 01:18:44,875
probably in the first episode here,

714
01:18:45,708 --> 01:18:47,625
that was the quote,

715
01:18:47,625 --> 01:18:51,041
"metrosexual" was a label back then.

716
01:18:51,083 --> 01:18:52,000
Yeah, yeah, it was.

717
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:53,791
Right, for just a guy that was clean,

718
01:18:53,791 --> 01:18:54,833
took care of himself,

719
01:18:56,333 --> 01:18:57,583
smelled good, took showers.

720
01:18:57,875 --> 01:18:58,833
I felt like, just like

721
01:18:58,833 --> 01:18:59,875
regular everyday things,

722
01:18:59,875 --> 01:19:01,791
because I like to be clean and whatever.

723
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:05,375
And so, that metrosexual vibe

724
01:19:06,041 --> 01:19:07,791
was always in the back of my mind, like,

725
01:19:07,791 --> 01:19:08,500
"Oh gosh, what am I,

726
01:19:08,916 --> 01:19:10,083
am I totally just always

727
01:19:10,083 --> 01:19:11,833
"burning my man card in front of people?"

728
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:14,208
And that was a time I felt like I did.

729
01:19:14,333 --> 01:19:15,291
Yeah, you didn't though.

730
01:19:15,500 --> 01:19:17,500
I mean, 20 years later,

731
01:19:17,500 --> 01:19:18,916
I think it was just fine.

732
01:19:18,916 --> 01:19:20,291
I knew you well enough to not think

733
01:19:20,291 --> 01:19:21,333
anything weird of it.

734
01:19:21,458 --> 01:19:22,291
Yeah, yeah.

735
01:19:22,333 --> 01:19:25,000
So, it may have been like our first date,

736
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,333
but we had talked for

737
01:19:26,333 --> 01:19:28,375
so long before we dated,

738
01:19:29,041 --> 01:19:29,958
before we went on a date.

739
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:32,041
Well, what got me on that one,

740
01:19:32,208 --> 01:19:32,916
which was funny though,

741
01:19:32,916 --> 01:19:33,416
it was just talking about

742
01:19:33,416 --> 01:19:34,250
some of those first ones,

743
01:19:34,250 --> 01:19:35,833
and I had tasted alcohol before that,

744
01:19:35,833 --> 01:19:36,666
but I remember the first

745
01:19:36,666 --> 01:19:39,791
time I had proper, like, cap,

746
01:19:40,708 --> 01:19:44,166
was, had it been 18 probably, maybe 17?

747
01:19:45,375 --> 01:19:46,125
Somehow, running around

748
01:19:46,125 --> 01:19:46,916
with a bunch of people

749
01:19:46,916 --> 01:19:48,458
in high school, we got

750
01:19:48,458 --> 01:19:49,375
into somebody's house

751
01:19:49,375 --> 01:19:50,333
in the Broadmoor, and

752
01:19:50,333 --> 01:19:51,250
that's like a swanky,

753
01:19:51,791 --> 01:19:53,041
used to be like a very

754
01:19:53,041 --> 01:19:55,166
uppity, rich, large house

755
01:19:55,541 --> 01:19:56,791
in Colorado Springs, where I grew up.

756
01:19:57,583 --> 01:19:58,083
We were trying to find

757
01:19:58,083 --> 01:19:59,041
alcohol or something,

758
01:19:59,041 --> 01:20:00,833
like just trying to find something to do.

759
01:20:01,041 --> 01:20:01,833
Like, are these one of these stories

760
01:20:01,833 --> 01:20:02,958
that we don't want our kids to hear?

761
01:20:03,916 --> 01:20:04,333
I don't know.

762
01:20:04,541 --> 01:20:05,333
I don't think, I don't know.

763
01:20:05,375 --> 01:20:05,791
Because I know they

764
01:20:05,791 --> 01:20:06,625
listen to this at times,

765
01:20:06,625 --> 01:20:08,750
but one story short is, we found,

766
01:20:09,291 --> 01:20:12,916
a wine, and it was an open, like, cab,

767
01:20:12,916 --> 01:20:13,666
and I remember we were like

768
01:20:13,666 --> 01:20:14,666
passing the bottle around,

769
01:20:14,666 --> 01:20:15,666
like just taking it to

770
01:20:15,666 --> 01:20:16,583
the face, chugging it,

771
01:20:17,208 --> 01:20:18,833
and it was so bad.

772
01:20:19,208 --> 01:20:20,500
Obviously, that's not how you drink wine.

773
01:20:20,500 --> 01:20:21,583
No, that's not how you drink wine.

774
01:20:21,583 --> 01:20:22,125
You sip wine.

775
01:20:22,958 --> 01:20:24,666
And you enjoy the flavor of wine.

776
01:20:24,708 --> 01:20:26,000
Don't do elbows up, like.

777
01:20:26,166 --> 01:20:26,541
No.

778
01:20:26,625 --> 01:20:27,291
It's another long

779
01:20:27,291 --> 01:20:28,166
story, we'll get into it

780
01:20:28,166 --> 01:20:29,208
some other time, probably.

781
01:20:29,791 --> 01:20:31,166
Yeah, yeah, no, no, no,

782
01:20:31,166 --> 01:20:32,583
you sip it, you enjoy it.

783
01:20:32,916 --> 01:20:33,625
I mean, that's how

784
01:20:33,625 --> 01:20:35,000
bourbon is for you now.

785
01:20:35,625 --> 01:20:36,375
Yeah, yeah.

786
01:20:36,416 --> 01:20:38,125
And that's not at all how it was

787
01:20:38,166 --> 01:20:39,625
when I would take a sip of my dad's

788
01:20:39,625 --> 01:20:41,166
while he was grilling our dinner.

789
01:20:41,625 --> 01:20:43,125
You didn't elbows up in fourth grade.

790
01:20:43,500 --> 01:20:44,500
Oh, gosh, no.

791
01:20:44,708 --> 01:20:45,875
I mean, like, it had to

792
01:20:45,875 --> 01:20:46,916
have been the smallest sip.

793
01:20:47,208 --> 01:20:47,500
Yeah.

794
01:20:47,833 --> 01:20:48,583
It's terrible.

795
01:20:48,791 --> 01:20:49,166
So I think our

796
01:20:49,166 --> 01:20:50,833
parenting philosophy there is,

797
01:20:50,833 --> 01:20:51,583
you know, if they're,

798
01:20:52,166 --> 01:20:53,291
let them be curious now

799
01:20:53,291 --> 01:20:54,375
while we're around.

800
01:20:54,791 --> 01:20:55,208
Sure.

801
01:20:55,250 --> 01:20:56,375
I mean, just sipping, I mean, obviously,

802
01:20:56,375 --> 01:20:57,458
we're not giving them

803
01:20:57,458 --> 01:20:58,958
drinks, they're kids.

804
01:21:00,041 --> 01:21:03,250
But I never once tasted

805
01:21:03,250 --> 01:21:05,708
alcohol at my house growing up.

806
01:21:05,833 --> 01:21:06,083
Yeah.

807
01:21:06,666 --> 01:21:08,166
That was not, and there was

808
01:21:08,166 --> 01:21:09,500
beer in the house, really.

809
01:21:09,583 --> 01:21:10,750
I don't remember there

810
01:21:10,750 --> 01:21:11,458
being like Coors Light

811
01:21:11,458 --> 01:21:12,125
or something like that.

812
01:21:12,333 --> 01:21:12,916
I don't remember any

813
01:21:12,916 --> 01:21:13,791
other kind of alcohol.

814
01:21:13,791 --> 01:21:15,583
I don't think there was ever spirits.

815
01:21:16,250 --> 01:21:17,166
Yeah, and we always,

816
01:21:17,416 --> 01:21:18,875
see, and we always had that,

817
01:21:19,541 --> 01:21:21,166
but it was very, I mean,

818
01:21:21,416 --> 01:21:22,958
my parents, thankfully,

819
01:21:22,958 --> 01:21:24,583
they always drank very responsibly.

820
01:21:24,833 --> 01:21:25,500
It was, you know,

821
01:21:25,666 --> 01:21:26,958
social drinking or, you know,

822
01:21:26,958 --> 01:21:27,541
on a Saturday night.

823
01:21:27,583 --> 01:21:28,416
And boy, do they still.

824
01:21:28,750 --> 01:21:32,916
Yeah, I mean, it's just part of it.

825
01:21:33,333 --> 01:21:34,833
But they never locked a liquor cabinet.

826
01:21:34,875 --> 01:21:37,333
I mean, it was always like so.

827
01:21:37,625 --> 01:21:38,583
And that never bit

828
01:21:38,583 --> 01:21:39,250
them in the butt either.

829
01:21:39,458 --> 01:21:40,166
I mean, it's not like

830
01:21:40,166 --> 01:21:40,916
any of your siblings

831
01:21:40,916 --> 01:21:42,541
ever threw big parties and

832
01:21:42,541 --> 01:21:44,083
refilled the liquor cabinet

833
01:21:44,083 --> 01:21:46,666
with water in the bottles.

834
01:21:47,291 --> 01:21:48,041
Yeah, that was

835
01:21:48,041 --> 01:21:49,250
siblings, so that wasn't me.

836
01:21:49,250 --> 01:21:49,750
I know.

837
01:21:50,791 --> 01:21:52,083
Yeah, my siblings had

838
01:21:52,083 --> 01:21:54,916
some ragers, but yeah.

839
01:21:55,666 --> 01:21:58,208
It was never like a taboo thing.

840
01:21:58,208 --> 01:22:00,125
So I think, at least for me,

841
01:22:00,125 --> 01:22:01,583
I definitely learned to drink

842
01:22:01,583 --> 01:22:03,708
responsibly because of that.

843
01:22:03,958 --> 01:22:04,583
Oh, no, there are always.

844
01:22:04,583 --> 01:22:06,625
I'm being facetious when I talk about

845
01:22:06,625 --> 01:22:07,208
your parents like that.

846
01:22:07,375 --> 01:22:08,500
They're great people

847
01:22:08,500 --> 01:22:09,666
who drink responsibly.

848
01:22:10,083 --> 01:22:11,375
Yes, yeah, so.

849
01:22:11,416 --> 01:22:11,958
You can enjoy it, because

850
01:22:11,958 --> 01:22:12,875
that's what it's for, you know.

851
01:22:13,208 --> 01:22:14,208
It is. When done right.

852
01:22:14,791 --> 01:22:16,625
It is, and we're talking about drinking,

853
01:22:16,625 --> 01:22:17,500
but like we were just

854
01:22:17,500 --> 01:22:18,416
talking the other night

855
01:22:18,541 --> 01:22:21,000
how this January schedule,

856
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:21,791
I hear a lot of people

857
01:22:21,791 --> 01:22:22,958
talking about dry January,

858
01:22:24,500 --> 01:22:25,583
and we did not intend

859
01:22:25,583 --> 01:22:27,208
to do a dry January,

860
01:22:28,083 --> 01:22:31,708
but every weekend, we have had something

861
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:33,416
like almost every weekend evening,

862
01:22:33,750 --> 01:22:35,750
and that's primarily, if

863
01:22:35,750 --> 01:22:37,083
we're gonna have a glass

864
01:22:37,083 --> 01:22:38,833
of something, it's on a weekend.

865
01:22:38,833 --> 01:22:40,125
It's pretty rare, it's on a weeknight.

866
01:22:41,958 --> 01:22:43,416
And we're like, so while it

867
01:22:43,416 --> 01:22:44,458
hasn't been a dry January,

868
01:22:44,458 --> 01:22:44,958
it's definitely been

869
01:22:44,958 --> 01:22:47,583
more of like a damp January.

870
01:22:48,458 --> 01:22:51,541
It has, it has, and to the point where,

871
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:53,166
well, I did contemplate a

872
01:22:53,166 --> 01:22:54,458
dry January, if you recall,

873
01:22:54,458 --> 01:22:57,166
like on December 30th for 15 seconds.

874
01:22:57,875 --> 01:22:58,875
Right, and then we're

875
01:22:58,875 --> 01:23:01,000
like, gosh, we were off.

876
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:02,333
We were on PTO at that time.

877
01:23:02,333 --> 01:23:03,708
I was like, well, but do

878
01:23:03,708 --> 01:23:04,875
you want a glass of wine?

879
01:23:06,250 --> 01:23:07,416
Absolutely. And it wasn't, absolutely.

880
01:23:07,458 --> 01:23:08,958
That was flushed down the toilet quickly.

881
01:23:09,916 --> 01:23:11,125
It was a terrible idea to begin with.

882
01:23:11,625 --> 01:23:13,458
Yeah, yeah, but I mean,

883
01:23:13,708 --> 01:23:17,833
because Friday night was, we were busy.

884
01:23:17,833 --> 01:23:19,041
I mean, we didn't get home till nine,

885
01:23:19,333 --> 01:23:20,541
you know, with different kids things,

886
01:23:20,708 --> 01:23:23,291
and you don't really wanna be the person

887
01:23:23,291 --> 01:23:24,750
picking up your kid in a school line

888
01:23:24,750 --> 01:23:27,125
after you had had a couple cocktails, so.

889
01:23:27,750 --> 01:23:28,333
Well, I remember where I

890
01:23:28,333 --> 01:23:29,166
was going with it now though,

891
01:23:29,166 --> 01:23:30,458
is because when I was in

892
01:23:30,458 --> 01:23:31,750
Vegas two weeks in a row,

893
01:23:31,791 --> 01:23:33,041
which gets old, right?

894
01:23:33,083 --> 01:23:33,416
Yeah.

895
01:23:34,083 --> 01:23:34,875
I mean, if the whole family

896
01:23:34,875 --> 01:23:35,666
was there, it'd been great,

897
01:23:35,666 --> 01:23:37,500
but it was just one-offs and whatnot,

898
01:23:37,500 --> 01:23:38,250
and it was a weird

899
01:23:38,250 --> 01:23:39,000
schedule when we were there

900
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:40,541
this last time, because we had games

901
01:23:40,541 --> 01:23:41,333
that we had to rest in

902
01:23:41,333 --> 01:23:42,500
between, we can't walk,

903
01:23:42,500 --> 01:23:43,625
because coach didn't

904
01:23:43,625 --> 01:23:44,541
want them walking around.

905
01:23:45,333 --> 01:23:47,958
But I did drink when I was there.

906
01:23:47,958 --> 01:23:48,750
I mean, I had my usual

907
01:23:48,750 --> 01:23:50,958
old-fashioned two nights in a row.

908
01:23:51,041 --> 01:23:51,333
Yeah.

909
01:23:51,833 --> 01:23:52,916
I had two at one place

910
01:23:52,916 --> 01:23:54,500
and one at the other place.

911
01:23:55,291 --> 01:23:55,458
(laughs)

912
01:23:55,875 --> 01:23:57,125
I might not have been quite as damp as,

913
01:23:57,750 --> 01:23:59,000
my January wasn't as damp as yours.

914
01:23:59,166 --> 01:24:01,416
Yeah, I was single parenting at home,

915
01:24:01,541 --> 01:24:03,875
I'm like, eh.

916
01:24:03,875 --> 01:24:04,208
Probably more

917
01:24:04,208 --> 01:24:05,500
acceptable in Vegas than drinking

918
01:24:05,500 --> 01:24:07,250
a lot at home. It absolutely is.

919
01:24:07,541 --> 01:24:08,375
Yeah, and I mean, we

920
01:24:08,375 --> 01:24:09,625
had some late night games

921
01:24:09,625 --> 01:24:10,250
and things like that

922
01:24:10,250 --> 01:24:11,666
where it was just like, no.

923
01:24:11,958 --> 01:24:14,000
And for me, it's more fun

924
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:16,083
if I'm gonna have a cocktail

925
01:24:16,083 --> 01:24:17,208
or a glass of wine, I

926
01:24:17,208 --> 01:24:19,333
would rather do it with you

927
01:24:19,541 --> 01:24:22,291
than you just kinda feel like a lush.

928
01:24:22,833 --> 01:24:25,375
But anyway, but that, I'll

929
01:24:25,375 --> 01:24:26,916
bring it back to the first story

930
01:24:27,083 --> 01:24:29,083
of Michael Jackson one and

931
01:24:29,083 --> 01:24:30,125
why you were running late,

932
01:24:30,833 --> 01:24:31,708
because I hear from

933
01:24:31,708 --> 01:24:33,000
our oldest the other day,

934
01:24:33,583 --> 01:24:34,125
I don't know where you

935
01:24:34,125 --> 01:24:35,791
had gone to, but he's like,

936
01:24:36,125 --> 01:24:38,583
"Mom, I learned so many

937
01:24:38,583 --> 01:24:39,875
things about dad at dinner."

938
01:24:40,416 --> 01:24:41,583
And I was like, "Really?"

939
01:24:42,291 --> 01:24:44,708
He's like, "I learned so many stories

940
01:24:44,708 --> 01:24:46,458
"that I had never heard."

941
01:24:48,333 --> 01:24:49,750
And so I think that's where--

942
01:24:49,791 --> 01:24:50,375
Maybe I should have

943
01:24:50,375 --> 01:24:51,375
been drinking too many.

944
01:24:51,500 --> 01:24:53,208
You guys were deep in conversation,

945
01:24:53,458 --> 01:24:55,666
which is I think why you may have been

946
01:24:55,666 --> 01:24:58,416
rushing to get to one.

947
01:24:59,375 --> 01:25:00,416
Well, I mean, we've talked about it.

948
01:25:00,666 --> 01:25:01,750
Our kids are getting at an age

949
01:25:01,750 --> 01:25:03,083
that we can have great

950
01:25:03,083 --> 01:25:04,041
conversations with them

951
01:25:04,041 --> 01:25:05,375
and they're fun and

952
01:25:05,375 --> 01:25:07,000
they're also at an age

953
01:25:07,166 --> 01:25:07,833
where we're having

954
01:25:07,833 --> 01:25:10,166
conversations that are material.

955
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:15,000
These are baseline conversations that

956
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:16,041
kinda set a direction

957
01:25:16,041 --> 01:25:17,791
and expectation and setting

958
01:25:17,791 --> 01:25:20,708
lines in the sand sometimes,

959
01:25:21,166 --> 01:25:21,958
but also knowing you

960
01:25:21,958 --> 01:25:22,791
don't have to be perfect.

961
01:25:24,416 --> 01:25:25,083
So, I mean, yeah, we had

962
01:25:25,083 --> 01:25:26,125
some really good conversations

963
01:25:26,458 --> 01:25:28,708
there and I don't remember, I don't

964
01:25:28,708 --> 01:25:29,333
specifically remember

965
01:25:29,583 --> 01:25:30,416
which ones I shared with

966
01:25:30,416 --> 01:25:31,333
them, so maybe offline.

967
01:25:32,500 --> 01:25:33,416
Offline, I'll tell you

968
01:25:33,416 --> 01:25:34,500
which ones he told me about.

969
01:25:34,500 --> 01:25:35,875
There was nothing I didn't know about

970
01:25:35,875 --> 01:25:38,291
and I think it was completely appropriate

971
01:25:38,291 --> 01:25:39,833
that you shared the stories that you did,

972
01:25:39,833 --> 01:25:41,250
but it goes back to like

973
01:25:41,250 --> 01:25:42,041
you were sharing stories

974
01:25:42,041 --> 01:25:43,083
about maybe times you

975
01:25:43,083 --> 01:25:45,000
didn't make the best choices

976
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,750
or times when, you know,

977
01:25:46,750 --> 01:25:47,791
like the time you were roofied.

978
01:25:49,375 --> 01:25:51,958
Long story also happened in Vegas.

979
01:25:53,833 --> 01:25:56,083
Anyway, it was fantastic because--

980
01:25:56,083 --> 01:25:57,250
Not in the last two weeks though.

981
01:25:57,291 --> 01:25:58,333
It was not in the last two weeks.

982
01:25:58,833 --> 01:25:59,791
That was also early.

983
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:00,833
20 years ago.

984
01:26:00,833 --> 01:26:02,541
Yeah, yeah, it was early on.

985
01:26:03,791 --> 01:26:05,666
But yeah, he was loving the stories

986
01:26:05,875 --> 01:26:07,791
and was full laborgasted.

987
01:26:08,166 --> 01:26:09,083
Really? Oh yeah.

988
01:26:09,083 --> 01:26:11,875
Cause he's always just so straight faced.

989
01:26:11,875 --> 01:26:13,750
He's a very mellow kid, very mellow.

990
01:26:13,791 --> 01:26:15,708
So I'm surprised, I guess

991
01:26:15,708 --> 01:26:17,375
I'm happy they landed at least.

992
01:26:17,875 --> 01:26:18,958
Oh, they landed, like

993
01:26:18,958 --> 01:26:19,916
they made an impression.

994
01:26:20,333 --> 01:26:21,833
His eyes lit up, I'm like,

995
01:26:21,833 --> 01:26:24,041
you'll never believe what dad told me.

996
01:26:24,166 --> 01:26:24,500
Really?

997
01:26:25,291 --> 01:26:26,875
Oh my gosh, that's funny, wow.

998
01:26:27,083 --> 01:26:28,250
Yeah, so.

999
01:26:28,500 --> 01:26:29,458
Hopefully it's for the

1000
01:26:29,458 --> 01:26:31,208
better than not, you know,

1001
01:26:32,083 --> 01:26:32,708
not for the worse.

1002
01:26:33,041 --> 01:26:36,916
I think my philosophy is, I don't know,

1003
01:26:37,166 --> 01:26:38,083
right, wrong or otherwise.

1004
01:26:38,750 --> 01:26:39,541
I think it was really

1005
01:26:39,541 --> 01:26:40,500
good that you shared that

1006
01:26:40,541 --> 01:26:42,083
because I think parents,

1007
01:26:42,541 --> 01:26:43,375
or kids think of their

1008
01:26:43,375 --> 01:26:44,750
parents sometimes as--

1009
01:26:45,333 --> 01:26:46,083
Perfect. Perfect.

1010
01:26:46,583 --> 01:26:47,541
And unrelatable.

1011
01:26:48,375 --> 01:26:49,916
Because they were perfect all the time.

1012
01:26:49,916 --> 01:26:51,875
And it's like, no, we

1013
01:26:51,875 --> 01:26:53,666
did the same stupid stuff

1014
01:26:53,666 --> 01:26:55,291
that you are probably going to do.

1015
01:26:55,333 --> 01:26:55,583
Yeah.

1016
01:26:56,458 --> 01:26:58,416
And for me, it's different too,

1017
01:26:58,458 --> 01:27:01,708
because I grew up in a household that,

1018
01:27:03,500 --> 01:27:04,750
by the time I got to my adolescence,

1019
01:27:05,500 --> 01:27:07,291
it was difficult.

1020
01:27:07,583 --> 01:27:08,750
I didn't have the greatest relationships

1021
01:27:08,916 --> 01:27:10,583
with either of my parents

1022
01:27:10,583 --> 01:27:13,000
because there's so much corolling

1023
01:27:13,083 --> 01:27:14,166
between the three of us.

1024
01:27:14,166 --> 01:27:15,375
There's a defensive here,

1025
01:27:15,375 --> 01:27:16,541
and this one's protecting me,

1026
01:27:16,541 --> 01:27:17,500
and this one's terrible.

1027
01:27:18,333 --> 01:27:19,125
So there's a lot of that.

1028
01:27:19,125 --> 01:27:20,333
I never had those conversations.

1029
01:27:21,083 --> 01:27:22,791
I can't remember having a heart to heart

1030
01:27:22,791 --> 01:27:24,333
with my parents, ever.

1031
01:27:24,875 --> 01:27:25,375
And I'm not trying to

1032
01:27:25,375 --> 01:27:26,083
throw anybody on the bus.

1033
01:27:26,083 --> 01:27:26,833
All those relationships

1034
01:27:26,833 --> 01:27:27,958
are fine and mended now.

1035
01:27:28,958 --> 01:27:30,041
We've all grown through that.

1036
01:27:30,500 --> 01:27:31,291
Let's just put that there.

1037
01:27:31,583 --> 01:27:34,208
But as being my own father now,

1038
01:27:34,208 --> 01:27:35,666
and someone that I didn't

1039
01:27:35,666 --> 01:27:36,875
know my biological father,

1040
01:27:38,333 --> 01:27:39,625
I had a testy

1041
01:27:39,625 --> 01:27:42,708
relationship with the father

1042
01:27:42,708 --> 01:27:44,041
that I grew up with.

1043
01:27:44,541 --> 01:27:46,125
Again, like I said, we've mended,

1044
01:27:46,125 --> 01:27:47,333
because I'm not trying

1045
01:27:47,333 --> 01:27:48,833
to stir up anything here

1046
01:27:48,833 --> 01:27:49,666
by any means.

1047
01:27:50,750 --> 01:27:52,208
But I wanted to be different.

1048
01:27:52,583 --> 01:27:53,541
I wanted to raise my kids

1049
01:27:53,541 --> 01:27:54,916
differently than I was raised.

1050
01:27:55,458 --> 01:27:57,041
And it's not like I grew up in the slums

1051
01:27:57,166 --> 01:27:57,791
or anything like that.

1052
01:27:58,083 --> 01:28:00,875
But I wanted to do it different.

1053
01:28:01,250 --> 01:28:02,916
And so part of that

1054
01:28:02,916 --> 01:28:04,375
is me wanting to share

1055
01:28:04,375 --> 01:28:05,500
some of these things with them,

1056
01:28:05,500 --> 01:28:06,166
and being open,

1057
01:28:06,166 --> 01:28:07,458
having those conversations,

1058
01:28:07,458 --> 01:28:09,625
because I don't have a

1059
01:28:09,625 --> 01:28:12,541
father figure in my life at all.

1060
01:28:12,833 --> 01:28:13,000
Period.

1061
01:28:13,625 --> 01:28:14,583
That I can go to and

1062
01:28:14,583 --> 01:28:15,500
bounce things off of.

1063
01:28:15,500 --> 01:28:16,333
I never have.

1064
01:28:17,041 --> 01:28:18,458
From the time I was 13 on,

1065
01:28:19,083 --> 01:28:20,125
I've never had a father figure.

1066
01:28:20,750 --> 01:28:21,458
Which is probably why

1067
01:28:21,458 --> 01:28:22,291
I've always been closer

1068
01:28:22,458 --> 01:28:23,916
to girls in my life.

1069
01:28:24,416 --> 01:28:25,000
And that's why it's been

1070
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:26,291
difficult for me to carry on

1071
01:28:26,375 --> 01:28:27,583
male relationships,

1072
01:28:27,583 --> 01:28:28,833
because at a young age,

1073
01:28:28,833 --> 01:28:30,041
I never knew how to have a

1074
01:28:30,041 --> 01:28:31,291
relationship with a male.

1075
01:28:31,291 --> 01:28:33,041
Because I never had a real father figure.

1076
01:28:33,041 --> 01:28:33,541
Even though I had a

1077
01:28:33,541 --> 01:28:34,958
father that was providing

1078
01:28:35,208 --> 01:28:38,208
and doing things that a father back then,

1079
01:28:38,208 --> 01:28:39,500
I guess, is expected to do,

1080
01:28:40,041 --> 01:28:42,291
it still wasn't an ideal situation.

1081
01:28:43,125 --> 01:28:46,041
So I'm trying to do it differently now,

1082
01:28:46,041 --> 01:28:48,041
and hopefully not mess that up.

1083
01:28:48,875 --> 01:28:50,291
Well, it had a

1084
01:28:50,291 --> 01:28:52,083
positive impact on our son.

1085
01:28:52,375 --> 01:28:54,708
And it's age appropriate, right?

1086
01:28:54,708 --> 01:28:56,250
I mean, you were sharing

1087
01:28:56,250 --> 01:28:57,500
stories of things that,

1088
01:28:57,875 --> 01:28:58,791
within the next five

1089
01:28:58,791 --> 01:29:00,250
years, he may have to face.

1090
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:02,750
And I think it was

1091
01:29:02,750 --> 01:29:04,666
very relatable for him.

1092
01:29:04,666 --> 01:29:06,333
Oh, I remember one of the stories now is,

1093
01:29:06,666 --> 01:29:07,333
jumping out of a

1094
01:29:07,333 --> 01:29:09,416
window at a party that was--

1095
01:29:09,625 --> 01:29:11,250
I wasn't sure if you wanted to go there.

1096
01:29:11,250 --> 01:29:12,875
I had totally forgotten this story.

1097
01:29:12,875 --> 01:29:13,916
That was just a funny one.

1098
01:29:13,916 --> 01:29:14,708
It was hilarious.

1099
01:29:15,291 --> 01:29:16,166
Because he was taught, yeah.

1100
01:29:16,250 --> 01:29:16,708
I mean, he's getting to the

1101
01:29:16,708 --> 01:29:17,625
age where people are starting

1102
01:29:17,750 --> 01:29:22,083
to drink at parties, and, you know.

1103
01:29:22,500 --> 01:29:23,291
We hope he makes

1104
01:29:23,291 --> 01:29:26,250
better choices than that.

1105
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:28,750
But, I mean, he's around it,

1106
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:30,208
and, or, I mean, will be

1107
01:29:30,208 --> 01:29:32,083
within the next couple years.

1108
01:29:32,083 --> 01:29:33,041
I'm just shocked at what they know

1109
01:29:33,041 --> 01:29:34,500
already at this age.

1110
01:29:34,500 --> 01:29:35,333
And we actually just said

1111
01:29:35,333 --> 01:29:36,291
it to you this morning that,

1112
01:29:36,875 --> 01:29:37,750
and we talk about it a lot

1113
01:29:37,750 --> 01:29:40,208
on this podcast, probably,

1114
01:29:40,208 --> 01:29:42,250
of just how much technology

1115
01:29:42,250 --> 01:29:43,958
has made our lives faster,

1116
01:29:43,958 --> 01:29:44,708
and we get more done,

1117
01:29:44,708 --> 01:29:46,625
but we're exposed to more,

1118
01:29:46,625 --> 01:29:48,625
and the kids are exposed to so much more.

1119
01:29:49,208 --> 01:29:50,250
I mean, I can only imagine

1120
01:29:50,250 --> 01:29:52,708
having access in a phone,

1121
01:29:53,291 --> 01:29:54,791
a screen, to what they have

1122
01:29:54,791 --> 01:29:56,916
access to, if I was that age.

1123
01:29:57,208 --> 01:29:57,666
You know, and my

1124
01:29:57,666 --> 01:29:58,791
girlfriend then had that.

1125
01:29:58,791 --> 01:30:00,791
I mean, like, the

1126
01:30:00,791 --> 01:30:03,250
self-discipline that they need to have,

1127
01:30:03,291 --> 01:30:06,875
and the morals in the North Star Compass,

1128
01:30:07,291 --> 01:30:08,666
to make the good decisions in life,

1129
01:30:08,666 --> 01:30:11,750
I mean, it is just, what,

1130
01:30:12,916 --> 01:30:13,875
multitude's more important.

1131
01:30:14,166 --> 01:30:16,958
Right, right, and harder.

1132
01:30:17,208 --> 01:30:17,625
I mean, that was

1133
01:30:17,625 --> 01:30:19,333
something that we didn't have.

1134
01:30:20,291 --> 01:30:21,708
I think we were probably

1135
01:30:21,708 --> 01:30:23,500
both working professionals

1136
01:30:23,583 --> 01:30:26,166
before it was common to have, you know,

1137
01:30:26,625 --> 01:30:27,291
iPhones, certainly.

1138
01:30:28,750 --> 01:30:30,375
But I remember I was in college,

1139
01:30:30,833 --> 01:30:31,625
right after college is when

1140
01:30:31,625 --> 01:30:32,458
I got my first cell phone.

1141
01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:34,750
I'm aging myself, but,

1142
01:30:34,958 --> 01:30:37,250
yeah, I mean, it's insane.

1143
01:30:38,083 --> 01:30:40,000
I remember taking pictures in college,

1144
01:30:40,375 --> 01:30:42,583
and it's like, would

1145
01:30:42,583 --> 01:30:43,291
I want those pictures

1146
01:30:43,291 --> 01:30:44,125
on the internet now?

1147
01:30:44,166 --> 01:30:45,500
No, not that they were

1148
01:30:45,500 --> 01:30:47,583
super damaging or anything,

1149
01:30:47,583 --> 01:30:49,208
but it's still not who you would want

1150
01:30:49,208 --> 01:30:53,333
your social media persona to be.

1151
01:30:53,333 --> 01:30:55,333
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1152
01:30:55,333 --> 01:30:56,125
I think the

1153
01:30:56,125 --> 01:30:58,291
repercussions are so much worse.

1154
01:31:00,125 --> 01:31:00,916
They are, you know,

1155
01:31:00,916 --> 01:31:01,416
that's what I'm telling,

1156
01:31:01,416 --> 01:31:02,375
like, nowadays, just

1157
01:31:02,375 --> 01:31:03,708
one picture can derail,

1158
01:31:04,666 --> 01:31:06,000
depending on what you want to do in life,

1159
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:06,500
and where you're

1160
01:31:06,500 --> 01:31:07,833
trying to get into and go.

1161
01:31:07,833 --> 01:31:08,750
I mean, one picture,

1162
01:31:09,083 --> 01:31:10,833
like, we always go back,

1163
01:31:10,833 --> 01:31:12,000
and I won't speak to it

1164
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:12,791
specifically, obviously,

1165
01:31:12,875 --> 01:31:13,375
but I know there's

1166
01:31:13,375 --> 01:31:14,250
one picture that I took

1167
01:31:14,250 --> 01:31:16,500
that was just, you know, I was like,

1168
01:31:16,500 --> 01:31:17,208
maybe I can take a

1169
01:31:17,208 --> 01:31:18,125
two-day picture I took.

1170
01:31:18,333 --> 01:31:18,916
Nothing horrible,

1171
01:31:19,166 --> 01:31:20,333
obviously, but something I'm like,

1172
01:31:20,333 --> 01:31:21,375
you know what, that is not

1173
01:31:21,375 --> 01:31:23,125
something that I want out there,

1174
01:31:23,791 --> 01:31:24,583
because I just don't

1175
01:31:24,583 --> 01:31:26,333
ever want that to come up,

1176
01:31:26,583 --> 01:31:29,541
and have to explain that to people,

1177
01:31:29,875 --> 01:31:30,750
even though it's innocent.

1178
01:31:31,125 --> 01:31:33,416
Yeah, it was naivete that probably--

1179
01:31:34,166 --> 01:31:35,000
Yeah, stupid.

1180
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:35,250
You know?

1181
01:31:36,166 --> 01:31:37,666
Yeah, but yeah, you

1182
01:31:37,666 --> 01:31:38,375
gotta grow up for that.

1183
01:31:38,375 --> 01:31:39,166
You gotta look up for

1184
01:31:39,166 --> 01:31:41,958
that, but at 14 or 15, 16,

1185
01:31:42,083 --> 01:31:42,708
however old you are,

1186
01:31:42,708 --> 01:31:44,041
22, for crying out loud,

1187
01:31:44,041 --> 01:31:45,666
I mean, you're not using

1188
01:31:45,666 --> 01:31:46,708
your brain half the time.

1189
01:31:46,708 --> 01:31:47,625
You're not thinking about it.

1190
01:31:47,625 --> 01:31:48,583
You're just having a fun time.

1191
01:31:48,583 --> 01:31:49,041
You're not thinking

1192
01:31:49,041 --> 01:31:50,125
about the consequences,

1193
01:31:50,416 --> 01:31:52,750
and I feel like we hamper on that so much

1194
01:31:52,833 --> 01:31:55,041
that your consequences for

1195
01:31:55,041 --> 01:31:56,291
that one little thing now

1196
01:31:56,291 --> 01:31:57,958
are just multiplied.

1197
01:31:58,625 --> 01:32:00,000
I could've got away with it,

1198
01:32:00,125 --> 01:32:02,583
because there's no proof of it, you know?

1199
01:32:03,166 --> 01:32:05,500
Now, I mean, on the

1200
01:32:05,500 --> 01:32:06,291
internet, it lives forever.

1201
01:32:06,666 --> 01:32:07,416
Yep, exactly.

1202
01:32:07,833 --> 01:32:09,291
So thank God these aren't out there for--

1203
01:32:11,416 --> 01:32:11,916
I know, it's not like

1204
01:32:11,916 --> 01:32:12,458
we were talking about--

1205
01:32:12,458 --> 01:32:13,625
You guys should be careful what I say.

1206
01:32:13,625 --> 01:32:14,916
I know, not like I was talking about

1207
01:32:14,916 --> 01:32:17,583
having sips of Manhattan at fourth grade.

1208
01:32:18,583 --> 01:32:19,125
Your dad's being

1209
01:32:19,125 --> 01:32:20,291
arrested as we speak for--

1210
01:32:21,666 --> 01:32:23,500
(laughs) He's a really good man.

1211
01:32:25,291 --> 01:32:28,333
Yeah, but it makes parenting, I think,

1212
01:32:28,750 --> 01:32:29,958
completely different now,

1213
01:32:30,416 --> 01:32:34,125
and I think while you were in Vegas

1214
01:32:34,291 --> 01:32:36,708
having really fun talks with our son,

1215
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:38,208
teaching him about maybe

1216
01:32:38,208 --> 01:32:40,250
some of the life choices

1217
01:32:40,250 --> 01:32:41,291
you had picked, good,

1218
01:32:41,291 --> 01:32:43,125
and maybe some of the not so good ones.

1219
01:32:44,041 --> 01:32:45,125
It's normal, everybody does it.

1220
01:32:45,166 --> 01:32:46,041
Everyone does it, yep.

1221
01:32:46,583 --> 01:32:48,041
I was also having to parent,

1222
01:32:48,041 --> 01:32:49,125
and that was one of the things

1223
01:32:49,125 --> 01:32:50,541
that I kept saying to our daughter

1224
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:52,500
last weekend in particular.

1225
01:32:53,958 --> 01:32:55,333
You came home, and I

1226
01:32:55,333 --> 01:32:56,166
was like, I am exhausted.

1227
01:32:56,500 --> 01:32:59,666
I have parented the

1228
01:32:59,666 --> 01:33:01,500
entire time you were gone.

1229
01:33:02,041 --> 01:33:03,833
You kinda get breaks every now and again

1230
01:33:03,833 --> 01:33:04,541
where your kids are just

1231
01:33:04,541 --> 01:33:05,375
making the right choices

1232
01:33:05,666 --> 01:33:06,958
and there's not a whole lot of drama

1233
01:33:06,958 --> 01:33:08,208
and anything going on,

1234
01:33:08,208 --> 01:33:08,833
you get those breaks.

1235
01:33:09,291 --> 01:33:09,958
But I was like, this

1236
01:33:09,958 --> 01:33:11,666
has been 72 hours straight

1237
01:33:11,666 --> 01:33:14,958
of me parenting, and I am tired

1238
01:33:15,041 --> 01:33:17,625
because it was complicated things,

1239
01:33:17,625 --> 01:33:19,083
and you wanna say the

1240
01:33:19,083 --> 01:33:20,666
right thing to your kid.

1241
01:33:20,666 --> 01:33:21,958
You don't, you need them to

1242
01:33:21,958 --> 01:33:23,583
understand the severity of it.

1243
01:33:25,333 --> 01:33:28,125
I was just plum exhausted,

1244
01:33:29,291 --> 01:33:30,250
but that was what I tried to

1245
01:33:30,250 --> 01:33:31,375
get across to our daughter,

1246
01:33:31,375 --> 01:33:34,666
was that it wasn't about that moment,

1247
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,291
it was about what are you going to do

1248
01:33:37,291 --> 01:33:38,583
in the big moments

1249
01:33:38,583 --> 01:33:40,375
when it really matters?

1250
01:33:41,916 --> 01:33:44,708
And I was like, you lost some of my trust

1251
01:33:44,833 --> 01:33:48,208
because you didn't make the right choice

1252
01:33:48,791 --> 01:33:49,958
in an easy circumstance.

1253
01:33:50,291 --> 01:33:51,250
Right, right.

1254
01:33:51,500 --> 01:33:52,666
How can we trust you with the big things

1255
01:33:52,666 --> 01:33:53,250
if we can't trust you

1256
01:33:53,250 --> 01:33:54,041
with the small things?

1257
01:33:54,083 --> 01:33:54,333
Yes.

1258
01:33:55,125 --> 01:33:55,375
Yeah.

1259
01:33:55,416 --> 01:33:57,708
So that was my weekend.

1260
01:33:58,000 --> 01:34:00,333
Yeah, so, and maybe I

1261
01:34:00,333 --> 01:34:01,500
should have had a glass of wine,

1262
01:34:01,500 --> 01:34:02,541
and then it wouldn't

1263
01:34:02,541 --> 01:34:03,750
have been quite as hard,

1264
01:34:03,833 --> 01:34:05,708
but those were just

1265
01:34:05,708 --> 01:34:07,708
moments that you can't.

1266
01:34:07,708 --> 01:34:08,583
You know what's kind of funny too,

1267
01:34:08,583 --> 01:34:09,333
is I think about that.

1268
01:34:09,583 --> 01:34:10,541
Yeah, you have to meet that,

1269
01:34:10,833 --> 01:34:13,875
and, but you were so innocent growing up.

1270
01:34:13,875 --> 01:34:15,000
Like you live such a

1271
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:17,500
straight and narrow, like life

1272
01:34:17,750 --> 01:34:18,833
growing up that I'm the

1273
01:34:18,833 --> 01:34:19,750
only one that has the ability

1274
01:34:19,750 --> 01:34:20,708
to share some of those,

1275
01:34:20,875 --> 01:34:22,083
and I wasn't that far

1276
01:34:22,083 --> 01:34:23,458
off the good narrow path.

1277
01:34:23,541 --> 01:34:24,541
Right, but--

1278
01:34:24,583 --> 01:34:25,500
I strayed here and

1279
01:34:25,500 --> 01:34:27,166
there, but I was pretty--

1280
01:34:29,416 --> 01:34:31,458
You were on the straight and narrow path.

1281
01:34:31,958 --> 01:34:34,541
I was like the straight jacket path.

1282
01:34:34,541 --> 01:34:35,791
Like it was not even,

1283
01:34:36,500 --> 01:34:38,500
there was no deviation from it.

1284
01:34:38,500 --> 01:34:40,791
I mean, I didn't,

1285
01:34:40,791 --> 01:34:41,958
well, I would take steps

1286
01:34:41,958 --> 01:34:44,083
of my dad's drink.

1287
01:34:44,125 --> 01:34:45,875
That was in fact the one thing you did.

1288
01:34:45,916 --> 01:34:47,375
That was the one thing I did, and my

1289
01:34:47,375 --> 01:34:48,500
parents knew about it.

1290
01:34:48,875 --> 01:34:50,250
Like it was, it was fine.

1291
01:34:50,291 --> 01:34:51,041
Yeah, he corrupted you.

1292
01:34:51,541 --> 01:34:54,291
Right, I mean, I didn't,

1293
01:34:54,875 --> 01:34:56,250
I still have never smoked

1294
01:34:56,250 --> 01:34:58,416
a cigarette or anything for that matter.

1295
01:34:59,000 --> 01:34:59,208
Never.

1296
01:34:59,875 --> 01:35:02,708
So, you know, when the kids at, you know,

1297
01:35:02,708 --> 01:35:03,625
if it comes to that,

1298
01:35:03,625 --> 01:35:04,416
they're like, hey mom,

1299
01:35:04,416 --> 01:35:04,916
what were some of the

1300
01:35:04,916 --> 01:35:06,041
rebellious things you did?

1301
01:35:06,041 --> 01:35:08,500
I'll be like, you

1302
01:35:08,500 --> 01:35:10,500
know, maybe when I was 20,

1303
01:35:10,916 --> 01:35:13,250
I drank too much alcohol.

1304
01:35:13,916 --> 01:35:16,375
Yeah, I wore an orange swatch watch band

1305
01:35:16,375 --> 01:35:17,791
with a red sweater probably.

1306
01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:19,958
Oh yeah, yeah, actually for me,

1307
01:35:19,958 --> 01:35:20,500
it probably would have been

1308
01:35:20,500 --> 01:35:22,041
a purple swatch watch band.

1309
01:35:22,458 --> 01:35:22,791
Okay.

1310
01:35:22,791 --> 01:35:23,208
With a red sweater.

1311
01:35:23,541 --> 01:35:26,125
Yeah, okay, with a red guest sweater.

1312
01:35:26,916 --> 01:35:28,375
Gotta make sure you gotta set the mood.

1313
01:35:29,125 --> 01:35:29,541
Gotta paint that

1314
01:35:29,541 --> 01:35:31,041
picture for people in the 90s.

1315
01:35:31,375 --> 01:35:32,541
With like the stirrup pants maybe.

1316
01:35:32,958 --> 01:35:34,375
Yeah, Z Cava Ricci for us.

1317
01:35:34,375 --> 01:35:35,000
You guys didn't have Z

1318
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,041
Cava Ricci down there.

1319
01:35:36,333 --> 01:35:36,875
We didn't.

1320
01:35:36,875 --> 01:35:37,291
Or up there.

1321
01:35:37,291 --> 01:35:38,291
Up there, yeah, yeah,

1322
01:35:38,291 --> 01:35:39,083
we were more guests,

1323
01:35:39,416 --> 01:35:41,666
and I think Gerbo was a big one.

1324
01:35:41,708 --> 01:35:42,291
A new Gerbo.

1325
01:35:42,333 --> 01:35:43,583
United, color- But you guys wore

1326
01:35:43,583 --> 01:35:44,791
big pants though, right?

1327
01:35:45,291 --> 01:35:45,541
Yeah.

1328
01:35:45,541 --> 01:35:46,500
Like sagging and all

1329
01:35:46,500 --> 01:35:48,125
that was in back then.

1330
01:35:48,250 --> 01:35:50,583
Yeah, although my, no one

1331
01:35:50,583 --> 01:35:52,000
in my family really sagged,

1332
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:52,708
but yeah, the big baggy

1333
01:35:52,708 --> 01:35:53,958
pants were in carpenter pants.

1334
01:35:53,958 --> 01:35:54,625
Do you remember those?

1335
01:35:54,666 --> 01:35:55,500
Well, Carver Springs, as we

1336
01:35:55,500 --> 01:35:57,000
all know, is Superghetto, so.

1337
01:35:57,750 --> 01:35:59,000
I mean, compared to where you grew up,

1338
01:35:59,000 --> 01:35:59,791
it was for sure ghetto.

1339
01:36:01,333 --> 01:36:01,375
(laughs)

1340
01:36:01,375 --> 01:36:02,500
On the scale.

1341
01:36:02,750 --> 01:36:02,958
Yeah.

1342
01:36:03,666 --> 01:36:05,000
I always call Megan Crispy Connecticut

1343
01:36:05,250 --> 01:36:06,250
because she's just so

1344
01:36:06,250 --> 01:36:07,375
straight and narrow.

1345
01:36:08,541 --> 01:36:09,125
I'm straight and

1346
01:36:09,125 --> 01:36:10,666
narrow, like it's all, yeah.

1347
01:36:12,541 --> 01:36:13,500
I embrace it.

1348
01:36:14,125 --> 01:36:15,208
You do, and you wear it well.

1349
01:36:15,583 --> 01:36:16,083
I wear it well.

1350
01:36:16,083 --> 01:36:17,500
Yeah, I mean, obviously it

1351
01:36:17,500 --> 01:36:18,541
doesn't offend me at all.

1352
01:36:18,833 --> 01:36:20,000
I don't think many of our listeners

1353
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:21,500
are gonna be shocked to hear that

1354
01:36:22,500 --> 01:36:24,250
I really haven't, I

1355
01:36:24,250 --> 01:36:25,041
didn't do anything rebellious.

1356
01:36:26,458 --> 01:36:27,708
Yeah, I agree.

1357
01:36:28,458 --> 01:36:28,875
I agree.

1358
01:36:28,916 --> 01:36:30,416
Yeah, no, that's about on brand.

1359
01:36:31,458 --> 01:36:32,958
But, you know, we talk about social media

1360
01:36:33,291 --> 01:36:34,791
and our kids have to watch that,

1361
01:36:34,791 --> 01:36:37,208
but even now adults are on social media,

1362
01:36:37,625 --> 01:36:38,916
and that's hard for me.

1363
01:36:39,291 --> 01:36:41,166
And I know you and I have talked about it

1364
01:36:41,166 --> 01:36:42,416
because I kicked around right now

1365
01:36:42,500 --> 01:36:44,083
with starting the podcasts.

1366
01:36:45,166 --> 01:36:45,791
And I started another

1367
01:36:45,791 --> 01:36:47,541
company, Aspen Capital Advisory.

1368
01:36:48,333 --> 01:36:51,125
So I am trying to get things out there.

1369
01:36:51,125 --> 01:36:52,375
I mean, in today's world,

1370
01:36:52,375 --> 01:36:52,958
it's not like you just

1371
01:36:52,958 --> 01:36:54,000
throw a commercial up on TV

1372
01:36:54,166 --> 01:36:54,916
or throw something on the

1373
01:36:54,916 --> 01:36:57,083
radio anymore or flyers.

1374
01:36:57,375 --> 01:36:59,958
I mean, you have to utilize social media.

1375
01:37:00,416 --> 01:37:03,833
It is the conduit to the people, right?

1376
01:37:04,708 --> 01:37:08,291
And for me, I am so sensitive

1377
01:37:09,041 --> 01:37:13,416
to annoying people with posts, you know?

1378
01:37:13,416 --> 01:37:16,000
But getting posts up and bringing traffic

1379
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:17,125
to attract people to

1380
01:37:17,125 --> 01:37:18,125
see what you're doing

1381
01:37:18,125 --> 01:37:19,500
both on the podcast side

1382
01:37:20,083 --> 01:37:21,958
and on the financial advisory side,

1383
01:37:22,416 --> 01:37:25,416
you need to get your name and just

1384
01:37:25,416 --> 01:37:26,375
information out there

1385
01:37:26,375 --> 01:37:29,208
and just gotta get content out there.

1386
01:37:30,666 --> 01:37:31,208
So, you know, social

1387
01:37:31,208 --> 01:37:32,375
media for me is weird

1388
01:37:32,375 --> 01:37:33,958
because I'm new to Instagram now

1389
01:37:33,958 --> 01:37:36,125
and every time I post, I'm like,

1390
01:37:36,125 --> 01:37:37,458
I know people are rolling their eyes.

1391
01:37:38,291 --> 01:37:39,083
You know, I'm trying to do something

1392
01:37:39,166 --> 01:37:40,666
that's interesting at least

1393
01:37:40,666 --> 01:37:42,208
and it's not just about our family.

1394
01:37:43,083 --> 01:37:44,500
I mean, I do have a YouTube channel now,

1395
01:37:44,500 --> 01:37:45,416
but it's for the

1396
01:37:45,416 --> 01:37:46,625
purpose of all those things.

1397
01:37:46,625 --> 01:37:48,166
We do some funny things on there too.

1398
01:37:48,625 --> 01:37:50,000
Our daughter and I,

1399
01:37:50,291 --> 01:37:50,916
because we do this

1400
01:37:50,916 --> 01:37:52,208
funny voice with Paris,

1401
01:37:52,375 --> 01:37:52,708
and we have a lot of people

1402
01:37:52,708 --> 01:37:53,625
that are like, oh, I'm gonna get a dog around the house.

1403
01:37:54,416 --> 01:37:55,541
We're just like, well, we should,

1404
01:37:56,125 --> 01:37:57,125
because she narrates our lives

1405
01:37:57,125 --> 01:37:58,375
and to us it's hilarious

1406
01:37:58,375 --> 01:37:59,875
and to mess the world, it's probably not,

1407
01:37:59,875 --> 01:38:03,000
but there's a lot of junk on YouTube.

1408
01:38:03,333 --> 01:38:03,708
Absolutely.

1409
01:38:04,041 --> 01:38:05,000
And so we thought we'd

1410
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:06,041
put our own junk up there.

1411
01:38:06,041 --> 01:38:06,625
So, you know, we've done

1412
01:38:06,625 --> 01:38:08,000
some things called, you know,

1413
01:38:08,250 --> 01:38:09,791
the PB puppies, which

1414
01:38:09,791 --> 01:38:10,750
is Paris and Philly.

1415
01:38:11,166 --> 01:38:11,750
So we have some of

1416
01:38:11,750 --> 01:38:12,666
those things up there too,

1417
01:38:12,666 --> 01:38:13,916
you know, just to bring

1418
01:38:13,916 --> 01:38:16,166
people to the YouTube channel

1419
01:38:16,166 --> 01:38:17,333
and hopefully they stumble across

1420
01:38:20,541 --> 01:38:21,375
or life happens, we'll

1421
01:38:21,375 --> 01:38:23,000
soon be up there, you know?

1422
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:24,041
So just trying to bring

1423
01:38:24,041 --> 01:38:25,500
some of those things to it.

1424
01:38:25,500 --> 01:38:25,791
Yeah.

1425
01:38:26,458 --> 01:38:27,208
I don't know.

1426
01:38:27,541 --> 01:38:29,791
It's just a whole new world

1427
01:38:30,250 --> 01:38:31,250
and it's something that our generation

1428
01:38:31,250 --> 01:38:32,458
doesn't do a lot of.

1429
01:38:33,125 --> 01:38:33,458
Right.

1430
01:38:33,500 --> 01:38:34,250
And I really just don't

1431
01:38:34,250 --> 01:38:35,416
want to be mistaken for,

1432
01:38:35,750 --> 01:38:37,083
A, don't want to be a YouTuber,

1433
01:38:37,083 --> 01:38:38,375
B, I don't want to annoy people,

1434
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:41,000
and C, you know, given,

1435
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:41,791
I've been in finance

1436
01:38:41,791 --> 01:38:43,625
my entire career, right?

1437
01:38:43,916 --> 01:38:45,333
I was a national managing

1438
01:38:45,333 --> 01:38:46,916
director of a professional team

1439
01:38:47,375 --> 01:38:48,458
and I don't want people

1440
01:38:48,458 --> 01:38:49,750
not to take me serious

1441
01:38:50,083 --> 01:38:50,583
because they think I'm

1442
01:38:50,583 --> 01:38:51,708
trying to be a YouTuber, you know?

1443
01:38:51,708 --> 01:38:52,625
So in the back of my

1444
01:38:52,625 --> 01:38:54,375
mind, that's there too.

1445
01:38:55,083 --> 01:38:56,958
Hopefully driving people to the business

1446
01:38:57,166 --> 01:38:58,125
and things like that,

1447
01:38:58,125 --> 01:38:59,833
but hopefully for people

1448
01:38:59,833 --> 01:39:01,208
who know you, like I know you,

1449
01:39:01,500 --> 01:39:02,125
you know, being a

1450
01:39:02,125 --> 01:39:04,375
YouTuber is the furthest thing

1451
01:39:04,375 --> 01:39:05,791
from your mind and you

1452
01:39:05,791 --> 01:39:06,791
and I talk quite a bit,

1453
01:39:07,166 --> 01:39:08,541
you're light years ahead of me.

1454
01:39:09,375 --> 01:39:12,333
I don't do social media.

1455
01:39:12,666 --> 01:39:13,208
Or technology.

1456
01:39:13,708 --> 01:39:15,291
Or technology really, period.

1457
01:39:15,500 --> 01:39:16,708
I don't even know how to do it.

1458
01:39:16,750 --> 01:39:18,000
The amount of times I have to tell you

1459
01:39:18,083 --> 01:39:20,166
how to do simple things on your iPhone.

1460
01:39:20,791 --> 01:39:21,416
Well, I don't know how to

1461
01:39:21,416 --> 01:39:22,625
turn on the TVs in our house.

1462
01:39:22,666 --> 01:39:23,083
Yeah, you can't turn

1463
01:39:23,083 --> 01:39:23,916
on the TVs in our house.

1464
01:39:25,208 --> 01:39:27,875
So, I mean, it does show you

1465
01:39:27,875 --> 01:39:29,333
just how little TV I watch,

1466
01:39:29,333 --> 01:39:30,916
but I mean, I don't know

1467
01:39:30,916 --> 01:39:32,500
how to turn on the TVs.

1468
01:39:34,125 --> 01:39:36,125
So yeah, that's about as

1469
01:39:36,125 --> 01:39:38,208
basic as most people can get.

1470
01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:39,625
If there's an

1471
01:39:39,625 --> 01:39:41,541
85-year-old watching this podcast,

1472
01:39:41,541 --> 01:39:42,416
they're probably like,

1473
01:39:42,416 --> 01:39:44,333
"Even I know how to turn on the TV."

1474
01:39:45,333 --> 01:39:45,500
Yeah.

1475
01:39:45,833 --> 01:39:46,458
You're ahead of me.

1476
01:39:47,000 --> 01:39:47,291
It's not that

1477
01:39:47,291 --> 01:39:49,000
difficult, but it is what it is.

1478
01:39:49,958 --> 01:39:52,458
Yeah, but all that to say, I mean,

1479
01:39:52,458 --> 01:39:56,375
I think social media can be so positive

1480
01:39:56,625 --> 01:40:00,208
and it can do a lot of great things,

1481
01:40:00,208 --> 01:40:01,750
but there are so many dangers.

1482
01:40:01,750 --> 01:40:02,708
I mean, I think our eyes

1483
01:40:02,708 --> 01:40:03,916
were opened a little bit

1484
01:40:04,416 --> 01:40:06,416
when it was our daughter's coach

1485
01:40:07,041 --> 01:40:08,000
actually gave a whole

1486
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:10,083
parent meeting on social media

1487
01:40:10,083 --> 01:40:11,416
and how you should use

1488
01:40:11,416 --> 01:40:12,958
it to promote your brand

1489
01:40:12,958 --> 01:40:15,541
or the skill and all of that

1490
01:40:16,416 --> 01:40:17,583
and how it should not be used.

1491
01:40:18,375 --> 01:40:20,500
Yeah, you say it's a good thing.

1492
01:40:20,916 --> 01:40:22,500
And I don't even know that I agree with

1493
01:40:22,500 --> 01:40:23,500
that wholeheartedly.

1494
01:40:23,791 --> 01:40:26,791
I mean, there's just so much bad.

1495
01:40:27,083 --> 01:40:28,000
It can be so bad.

1496
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:29,375
Maybe that's-- It can be, yeah.

1497
01:40:29,750 --> 01:40:34,833
And it's unfortunately a necessary thing

1498
01:40:35,416 --> 01:40:36,500
that you have to utilize

1499
01:40:36,500 --> 01:40:38,625
that I don't really love or like

1500
01:40:38,750 --> 01:40:39,750
because when Facebook

1501
01:40:39,750 --> 01:40:41,333
first came out, it was just,

1502
01:40:41,333 --> 01:40:43,583
and even now, I'm never

1503
01:40:43,583 --> 01:40:45,000
on Facebook first off.

1504
01:40:45,791 --> 01:40:47,375
I mean, I know I post a lot to it,

1505
01:40:47,625 --> 01:40:48,916
but again, we're trying to build things,

1506
01:40:48,916 --> 01:40:50,416
but I'm never on it scrolling through it

1507
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,333
because years ago when I used to do that,

1508
01:40:53,333 --> 01:40:53,916
it was like people

1509
01:40:53,916 --> 01:40:55,791
just putting pictures up

1510
01:40:55,791 --> 01:40:57,000
of moments in their lives

1511
01:40:57,000 --> 01:40:59,375
trying to make them look bigger,

1512
01:40:59,375 --> 01:41:00,333
maybe than they really are,

1513
01:41:00,333 --> 01:41:01,041
living a different life

1514
01:41:01,041 --> 01:41:02,166
than maybe they really are.

1515
01:41:03,333 --> 01:41:04,458
And so it's not, and

1516
01:41:04,458 --> 01:41:06,541
that's a widely known,

1517
01:41:07,208 --> 01:41:08,166
bad side effect that

1518
01:41:08,166 --> 01:41:09,250
people are just trying to,

1519
01:41:09,541 --> 01:41:11,250
so I mean, a lot of people are just

1520
01:41:11,250 --> 01:41:12,250
trying to post stuff

1521
01:41:12,583 --> 01:41:13,458
just to make themselves,

1522
01:41:13,833 --> 01:41:15,208
paint themselves in a different light,

1523
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:17,000
maybe look better, like

1524
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:17,708
they're living a better life

1525
01:41:17,708 --> 01:41:19,000
maybe than they really are.

1526
01:41:19,708 --> 01:41:20,958
And I think what we're trying to do

1527
01:41:20,958 --> 01:41:21,833
is just put things up there

1528
01:41:21,833 --> 01:41:23,333
for family and friends to see

1529
01:41:23,333 --> 01:41:24,500
and maybe to be

1530
01:41:24,500 --> 01:41:27,750
entertaining, to bring some people

1531
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:29,666
to the website or whatnot.

1532
01:41:30,125 --> 01:41:31,666
But if nothing else, we're

1533
01:41:31,666 --> 01:41:33,041
just trying to put up stuff

1534
01:41:33,250 --> 01:41:34,333
just to be relatable.

1535
01:41:35,541 --> 01:41:36,375
Hashtag relatable.

1536
01:41:37,166 --> 01:41:38,291
Hashtag relatable.

1537
01:41:38,875 --> 01:41:39,750
I laugh at that because of

1538
01:41:39,750 --> 01:41:41,000
the story from the other night.

1539
01:41:41,625 --> 01:41:44,583
Hell yeah, so we were having dinner

1540
01:41:44,958 --> 01:41:47,875
and our son had said something about math

1541
01:41:48,041 --> 01:41:49,500
and it was a great family dinner.

1542
01:41:49,500 --> 01:41:50,666
Our daughter then was like,

1543
01:41:51,083 --> 01:41:52,958
I'm the smartest person in my math class

1544
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:56,583
and our oldest pipes up immediately with?

1545
01:41:57,500 --> 01:41:59,625
Hashtag relatable, yeah.

1546
01:42:00,500 --> 01:42:01,208
I should have said that dinner

1547
01:42:01,208 --> 01:42:03,666
so it can be used in the opening one,

1548
01:42:03,666 --> 01:42:06,166
but it was perfect timing from the oldest

1549
01:42:06,166 --> 01:42:08,500
who doesn't have the funny bone

1550
01:42:08,625 --> 01:42:10,000
as much as some of the other ones do.

1551
01:42:10,500 --> 01:42:11,458
So when he pulls one

1552
01:42:11,458 --> 01:42:12,791
out like that, it's great.

1553
01:42:12,791 --> 01:42:13,833
It was great.

1554
01:42:14,458 --> 01:42:15,458
She's going on about how

1555
01:42:15,458 --> 01:42:17,291
smart she is, hashtag relatable.

1556
01:42:17,500 --> 01:42:19,000
So that's been-- Hashtag relatable.

1557
01:42:19,416 --> 01:42:21,375
I mean, that's exactly what it was.

1558
01:42:21,875 --> 01:42:22,916
And that has been kind

1559
01:42:22,916 --> 01:42:24,500
of the theme for the week.

1560
01:42:25,333 --> 01:42:26,750
And as you and I were

1561
01:42:26,750 --> 01:42:28,500
talking about Mr. and Mrs.

1562
01:42:29,458 --> 01:42:31,000
I was like, gosh, can

1563
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:32,500
that, can hashtag relatable?

1564
01:42:34,208 --> 01:42:35,500
Can you boil down Mr. and

1565
01:42:35,500 --> 01:42:37,125
Mrs. to just hashtag relatable?

1566
01:42:37,583 --> 01:42:39,625
We like to think that

1567
01:42:39,625 --> 01:42:41,416
we're all in this together

1568
01:42:41,833 --> 01:42:44,041
and we just want to be relatable.

1569
01:42:44,500 --> 01:42:46,166
Yeah, yeah, it's funny.

1570
01:42:46,625 --> 01:42:47,833
That makes me think of I was listening

1571
01:42:47,833 --> 01:42:49,041
to Smart List the other day

1572
01:42:49,541 --> 01:42:51,041
and the guys were talking on that one.

1573
01:42:51,041 --> 01:42:52,583
That's just such a funny podcast.

1574
01:42:53,208 --> 01:42:53,583
Hilarious.

1575
01:42:53,916 --> 01:42:55,875
And one of them was talking about like,

1576
01:42:55,875 --> 01:42:57,208
I just want to be able to, I want to go

1577
01:42:57,208 --> 01:42:58,208
to the grocery store

1578
01:42:58,208 --> 01:42:59,708
and just push up, push the

1579
01:42:59,708 --> 01:43:01,708
cart up and down each aisle

1580
01:43:01,916 --> 01:43:04,208
and just pick out whatever food I want.

1581
01:43:04,750 --> 01:43:07,083
And one of the other guys is like, wow.

1582
01:43:07,708 --> 01:43:09,166
Like that's what, that's your dream.

1583
01:43:09,583 --> 01:43:11,916
I mean, holy cow, hashtag relatable.

1584
01:43:13,625 --> 01:43:16,000
Going to the grocery store is

1585
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:17,916
so out of the normal for him.

1586
01:43:19,208 --> 01:43:20,291
People can really relate to him.

1587
01:43:20,708 --> 01:43:22,291
Oh yeah, really, really.

1588
01:43:23,666 --> 01:43:25,291
See, it's so universal.

1589
01:43:25,833 --> 01:43:28,500
Our oldest struck

1590
01:43:28,500 --> 01:43:30,458
comedy gold with that one.

1591
01:43:30,916 --> 01:43:31,875
Yeah, it was good.

1592
01:43:32,125 --> 01:43:32,375
Yeah.

1593
01:43:32,833 --> 01:43:34,000
It was a good one liner for sure.

1594
01:43:34,583 --> 01:43:36,416
Yeah, it was good to, that was actually

1595
01:43:36,416 --> 01:43:38,250
such a fun family dinner too.

1596
01:43:38,875 --> 01:43:41,125
Our kids were really like

1597
01:43:41,125 --> 01:43:42,166
firing on all cylinders.

1598
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:43,833
I think this is a

1599
01:43:43,833 --> 01:43:44,666
second week in a row now

1600
01:43:44,666 --> 01:43:45,458
where we've been able to

1601
01:43:45,458 --> 01:43:46,625
talk about a family dinner

1602
01:43:46,625 --> 01:43:47,458
that we had, that's--

1603
01:43:47,958 --> 01:43:48,916
I think we have to do it more.

1604
01:43:49,458 --> 01:43:50,125
Yeah.

1605
01:43:50,125 --> 01:43:52,083
Because I mean, a long time ago,

1606
01:43:52,083 --> 01:43:52,875
didn't some book come

1607
01:43:52,875 --> 01:43:54,916
out about how to, you know,

1608
01:43:54,916 --> 01:43:55,666
have a good family,

1609
01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:57,291
relationships and whatnot.

1610
01:43:57,291 --> 01:43:57,833
One of them was sitting

1611
01:43:57,833 --> 01:43:58,833
down and having a good,

1612
01:43:58,833 --> 01:43:59,541
having family dinner.

1613
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:00,791
Every night, I think

1614
01:44:00,791 --> 01:44:02,333
probably those books would say.

1615
01:44:02,583 --> 01:44:03,916
Yes, yeah, okay, well we

1616
01:44:03,916 --> 01:44:05,208
are far from that goal.

1617
01:44:06,708 --> 01:44:07,125
Yeah, once a week.

1618
01:44:07,458 --> 01:44:10,625
Once a week is, hopefully we can have,

1619
01:44:10,916 --> 01:44:11,583
we'll get to like two a

1620
01:44:11,583 --> 01:44:12,541
week over the next couple,

1621
01:44:12,916 --> 01:44:16,416
but yeah, it was so fun to hear the kids.

1622
01:44:16,416 --> 01:44:19,000
They were kind of bragging on themselves,

1623
01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:20,625
which is fun to do in

1624
01:44:20,625 --> 01:44:21,583
a family environment.

1625
01:44:21,958 --> 01:44:22,958
It's a safe environment to do it.

1626
01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:23,375
Yeah.

1627
01:44:23,375 --> 01:44:23,916
You have to be able to

1628
01:44:23,916 --> 01:44:24,750
do that to some degree.

1629
01:44:25,000 --> 01:44:25,916
You have to have somewhere safe.

1630
01:44:26,416 --> 01:44:28,208
They were so proud of themselves.

1631
01:44:28,208 --> 01:44:28,958
That's exactly right.

1632
01:44:28,958 --> 01:44:30,750
They were just talking about a couple

1633
01:44:30,750 --> 01:44:32,208
of their accomplishments from school

1634
01:44:32,416 --> 01:44:33,916
that they were really proud of.

1635
01:44:33,958 --> 01:44:34,166
Yeah.

1636
01:44:34,875 --> 01:44:39,500
In turn, as a parent, I was super proud.

1637
01:44:39,833 --> 01:44:40,083
Yeah.

1638
01:44:40,875 --> 01:44:41,791
And then I learned things.

1639
01:44:42,541 --> 01:44:44,375
Not growing up in Texas, I

1640
01:44:44,375 --> 01:44:46,375
did not learn Texas history.

1641
01:44:47,083 --> 01:44:47,416
Me either.

1642
01:44:47,916 --> 01:44:49,250
Texas is the, well, I

1643
01:44:49,250 --> 01:44:51,000
think in our last episode,

1644
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:52,250
we talked about your

1645
01:44:52,250 --> 01:44:54,458
District 11 education,

1646
01:44:55,541 --> 01:44:58,000
but I learned things from them

1647
01:44:58,000 --> 01:44:59,791
because then they'll start talking about

1648
01:45:00,791 --> 01:45:01,916
Battles of San Jacinto.

1649
01:45:02,500 --> 01:45:03,875
I was like, I've never heard of this.

1650
01:45:05,208 --> 01:45:06,833
Yeah, the Alamo, I've never heard of it.

1651
01:45:09,833 --> 01:45:11,500
Wow, it really is

1652
01:45:11,500 --> 01:45:13,000
falling far from grace, huh?

1653
01:45:16,041 --> 01:45:17,250
No, you're right though.

1654
01:45:17,250 --> 01:45:18,458
Your point is totally right on,

1655
01:45:18,875 --> 01:45:19,416
because I haven't said

1656
01:45:19,416 --> 01:45:20,250
that yet, this episode.

1657
01:45:20,250 --> 01:45:21,250
I say that every episode,

1658
01:45:21,250 --> 01:45:22,125
probably four or five times.

1659
01:45:23,166 --> 01:45:23,916
Yeah, there it is.

1660
01:45:25,916 --> 01:45:27,833
They enjoy that and it's fun

1661
01:45:27,833 --> 01:45:29,000
for them to be able to talk.

1662
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:29,833
And we need to make an

1663
01:45:29,833 --> 01:45:30,833
effort to do that more often

1664
01:45:30,833 --> 01:45:32,500
with them because I think they enjoy it.

1665
01:45:32,500 --> 01:45:34,666
It's really the only

1666
01:45:34,666 --> 01:45:35,750
one-on-one time we get with them

1667
01:45:35,791 --> 01:45:37,083
because they're in the back

1668
01:45:37,083 --> 01:45:38,041
of the car on the way to soccer

1669
01:45:38,041 --> 01:45:39,083
and they get out for soccer,

1670
01:45:39,458 --> 01:45:40,458
or they're on the way to

1671
01:45:40,458 --> 01:45:41,250
school and they get out.

1672
01:45:41,250 --> 01:45:42,666
I mean, there's not a

1673
01:45:42,666 --> 01:45:43,541
lot of one-on-one time

1674
01:45:43,541 --> 01:45:45,708
and you should take more advantage of

1675
01:45:45,708 --> 01:45:47,291
that while we have it.

1676
01:45:48,041 --> 01:45:49,250
Yeah, because it goes so fast.

1677
01:45:49,750 --> 01:45:50,500
Then the three of them,

1678
01:45:51,708 --> 01:45:52,500
because there's not a

1679
01:45:52,500 --> 01:45:53,375
competition involved,

1680
01:45:53,583 --> 01:45:55,125
the three of them are usually,

1681
01:45:55,125 --> 01:45:56,041
okay, maybe fighting for

1682
01:45:56,041 --> 01:45:57,000
attention a little bit.

1683
01:45:58,500 --> 01:45:59,958
I'm next, I get to talk next,

1684
01:46:00,083 --> 01:46:02,291
but for the most part,

1685
01:46:02,291 --> 01:46:04,666
it's a harmonious time

1686
01:46:05,208 --> 01:46:08,958
when we can all download from the week.

1687
01:46:08,958 --> 01:46:09,333
It is.

1688
01:46:09,791 --> 01:46:10,958
Although they do fight, you're right.

1689
01:46:10,958 --> 01:46:11,708
Did you just mention that?

1690
01:46:11,708 --> 01:46:13,500
That they fight for who's talking.

1691
01:46:14,125 --> 01:46:14,833
And one of them will

1692
01:46:14,833 --> 01:46:15,541
be raising their hand

1693
01:46:15,541 --> 01:46:17,250
and by the time we get to them, I forgot.

1694
01:46:17,250 --> 01:46:17,875
I forgot.

1695
01:46:18,500 --> 01:46:20,000
Yeah, it turns into tears.

1696
01:46:20,500 --> 01:46:21,541
Yes, that was our

1697
01:46:21,541 --> 01:46:22,666
youngest, this one, right?

1698
01:46:22,666 --> 01:46:24,166
He's like, I forgot.

1699
01:46:24,750 --> 01:46:24,958
Yeah.

1700
01:46:25,583 --> 01:46:26,625
You felt all bad.

1701
01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:28,833
Which I didn't realize.

1702
01:46:29,333 --> 01:46:30,875
He tells the longest story sometimes.

1703
01:46:31,208 --> 01:46:32,250
Oh yeah, everyone forgets.

1704
01:46:32,291 --> 01:46:33,500
You gotta rap it, bud.

1705
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:35,375
Yeah, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

1706
01:46:35,666 --> 01:46:36,791
Although a story came out

1707
01:46:36,791 --> 01:46:38,000
that I didn't know about you,

1708
01:46:38,458 --> 01:46:39,708
you drew a cartoon about

1709
01:46:39,708 --> 01:46:41,708
someone who forgot their story

1710
01:46:41,708 --> 01:46:42,833
and they were crying.

1711
01:46:43,416 --> 01:46:45,541
Yeah, in fifth grade, Mr. G's class.

1712
01:46:46,500 --> 01:46:47,291
I'd never heard that

1713
01:46:47,291 --> 01:46:48,208
story in all these years.

1714
01:46:48,541 --> 01:46:50,250
Yeah, well, we'll spare the listeners,

1715
01:46:50,250 --> 01:46:51,041
it's not that funny,

1716
01:46:51,041 --> 01:46:52,166
but similar situation

1717
01:46:52,458 --> 01:46:54,500
of somebody waving his hand wildly

1718
01:46:54,500 --> 01:46:55,958
who always had the answers in class

1719
01:46:56,125 --> 01:46:58,291
and finally the teacher, Mr. Greasinger,

1720
01:46:58,625 --> 01:46:59,375
fifth grade teacher at

1721
01:46:59,375 --> 01:47:00,750
King Elementary called on him

1722
01:47:00,750 --> 01:47:01,791
and he forgot.

1723
01:47:02,500 --> 01:47:04,791
And the waterworks happened and whatnot.

1724
01:47:05,291 --> 01:47:05,958
I thought it'd be a

1725
01:47:05,958 --> 01:47:07,250
great idea to draw a cartoon

1726
01:47:07,583 --> 01:47:08,666
to make sure it was

1727
01:47:08,666 --> 01:47:11,500
captured and archived for history.

1728
01:47:13,041 --> 01:47:15,083
I wanna see this cartoon so bad.

1729
01:47:16,333 --> 01:47:18,041
Honestly, I might have it,

1730
01:47:18,041 --> 01:47:19,083
because it cracked me

1731
01:47:19,083 --> 01:47:19,916
up for such a long time

1732
01:47:19,916 --> 01:47:21,375
and it's not even that funny.

1733
01:47:21,958 --> 01:47:22,875
But in one of my totes

1734
01:47:22,875 --> 01:47:24,875
upstairs, I think I have that.

1735
01:47:25,500 --> 01:47:26,250
I'm gonna go show it to you.

1736
01:47:26,541 --> 01:47:27,958
I am picturing a Calvin

1737
01:47:27,958 --> 01:47:29,333
and Hobbes kind of a thing

1738
01:47:29,666 --> 01:47:30,833
with like just--

1739
01:47:30,875 --> 01:47:31,416
It's two frames.

1740
01:47:32,125 --> 01:47:32,916
Like, yeah, with--

1741
01:47:33,208 --> 01:47:34,375
It's two frames, one with

1742
01:47:34,375 --> 01:47:35,500
his hand up sitting at his desk

1743
01:47:35,500 --> 01:47:36,875
and one with his head on his head.

1744
01:47:38,166 --> 01:47:39,083
Oh, this poor kid.

1745
01:47:39,083 --> 01:47:39,875
Tears flying out.

1746
01:47:40,166 --> 01:47:41,250
Yeah, they were like flying out.

1747
01:47:41,250 --> 01:47:41,500
Yeah.

1748
01:47:41,500 --> 01:47:42,666
Like a Calvin and Hobbes, oh.

1749
01:47:43,958 --> 01:47:46,625
That's fantastic, I love that.

1750
01:47:47,333 --> 01:47:48,708
I wanna see it so bad.

1751
01:47:49,958 --> 01:47:50,833
That's funny, well,

1752
01:47:51,333 --> 01:47:52,208
what do we have going up

1753
01:47:52,208 --> 01:47:52,833
the rest of this week?

1754
01:47:53,041 --> 01:47:53,875
We had an 8 a.m.

1755
01:47:53,875 --> 01:47:54,875
soccer game this morning.

1756
01:47:54,916 --> 01:47:56,333
Yeah, up early.

1757
01:47:56,458 --> 01:47:57,208
Super Bowls from the

1758
01:47:57,208 --> 01:47:58,083
youngest, that was good.

1759
01:47:58,083 --> 01:47:59,416
Always good to get goals out of them.

1760
01:47:59,500 --> 01:48:00,583
Always good to get goals

1761
01:48:00,750 --> 01:48:01,916
and the team played like a

1762
01:48:01,916 --> 01:48:03,250
champ against an older team.

1763
01:48:03,666 --> 01:48:05,833
They showed a lot of heart and fight.

1764
01:48:05,833 --> 01:48:06,750
We still have one more.

1765
01:48:07,041 --> 01:48:07,458
Another one?

1766
01:48:07,958 --> 01:48:08,375
Today, yeah.

1767
01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:12,375
But this week is a very normal week.

1768
01:48:12,375 --> 01:48:13,250
You're not traveling.

1769
01:48:15,250 --> 01:48:16,166
Looking forward to being home.

1770
01:48:17,250 --> 01:48:17,916
We're all looking

1771
01:48:17,916 --> 01:48:19,416
forward to have you home.

1772
01:48:20,083 --> 01:48:21,291
And then looking forward

1773
01:48:21,291 --> 01:48:22,541
to Super Bowl next week.

1774
01:48:22,791 --> 01:48:24,125
Super Bowl, that's right.

1775
01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:25,583
Go Swifties.

1776
01:48:26,416 --> 01:48:27,583
I know, there you go.

1777
01:48:27,583 --> 01:48:28,666
I wonder how many times we'll see Taylor.

1778
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:30,500
A lot.

1779
01:48:31,833 --> 01:48:32,791
Are we taking bets on

1780
01:48:32,791 --> 01:48:34,333
this to see if Travis Kelsey,

1781
01:48:35,125 --> 01:48:36,541
do we care if he proposes?

1782
01:48:36,791 --> 01:48:37,750
There's no way he does.

1783
01:48:37,750 --> 01:48:38,125
You know they're

1784
01:48:38,125 --> 01:48:39,041
making fun of this somehow.

1785
01:48:39,291 --> 01:48:40,583
He and her and all their people.

1786
01:48:40,583 --> 01:48:42,000
100%, he's not gonna propose.

1787
01:48:42,916 --> 01:48:44,458
I bet they do a fake proposal.

1788
01:48:45,041 --> 01:48:45,333
Maybe.

1789
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:47,666
Ooh, we should pull the

1790
01:48:47,666 --> 01:48:48,375
listeners on that one.

1791
01:48:48,416 --> 01:48:49,500
It's a big gotcha.

1792
01:48:49,541 --> 01:48:50,583
It's a big, yeah.

1793
01:48:50,625 --> 01:48:50,833
Moment.

1794
01:48:51,750 --> 01:48:52,791
It'll be like a cliffhanger.

1795
01:48:52,791 --> 01:48:53,916
Who are you cheering for?

1796
01:48:54,333 --> 01:48:55,125
I'm cheering for the Chiefs.

1797
01:48:55,375 --> 01:48:55,791
Yeah, yeah.

1798
01:48:56,291 --> 01:48:58,458
I'm not a huge Eagles fan.

1799
01:48:59,000 --> 01:48:59,166
Yeah.

1800
01:49:00,666 --> 01:49:01,375
So we'll go for Chiefs.

1801
01:49:03,541 --> 01:49:05,375
East Coast team, we're Midwest people.

1802
01:49:06,166 --> 01:49:06,833
Same division as the

1803
01:49:06,833 --> 01:49:07,958
Broncos for me at least.

1804
01:49:08,875 --> 01:49:09,458
I gotta go there.

1805
01:49:09,750 --> 01:49:09,958
Yeah.

1806
01:49:10,666 --> 01:49:12,333
For me it's all about

1807
01:49:12,333 --> 01:49:13,708
the time we spend together.

1808
01:49:13,958 --> 01:49:15,625
I usually cook a lot, I

1809
01:49:15,625 --> 01:49:16,791
make a lot of appetizers

1810
01:49:16,791 --> 01:49:18,333
and I eat way too much.

1811
01:49:18,333 --> 01:49:19,375
So I'm usually full but

1812
01:49:19,375 --> 01:49:20,583
before the game even starts.

1813
01:49:22,375 --> 01:49:24,708
It's another great holiday that you spend

1814
01:49:25,000 --> 01:49:26,166
in the kitchen all day.

1815
01:49:26,166 --> 01:49:27,375
I know, I know.

1816
01:49:28,458 --> 01:49:29,708
But I mean, as long as people

1817
01:49:29,708 --> 01:49:31,625
enjoy what I'm making, then.

1818
01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:32,583
Oh, we do.

1819
01:49:32,791 --> 01:49:33,625
It's always just a

1820
01:49:33,625 --> 01:49:34,916
win-win, kind of lose-lose.

1821
01:49:35,250 --> 01:49:35,625
I don't know.

1822
01:49:36,333 --> 01:49:36,625
Yeah.

1823
01:49:36,625 --> 01:49:37,125
It's kind of difficult.

1824
01:49:37,583 --> 01:49:37,833
Yeah.

1825
01:49:38,458 --> 01:49:40,125
Hey, by the way, and we can end on,

1826
01:49:40,125 --> 01:49:41,583
no we don't have to end on this,

1827
01:49:41,583 --> 01:49:43,208
but I called Lego for

1828
01:49:43,208 --> 01:49:44,500
that missing bag, 27.

1829
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:45,583
I know everybody was

1830
01:49:45,583 --> 01:49:46,458
waiting on this one too.

1831
01:49:46,750 --> 01:49:47,708
Oh, that was another cliffhanger.

1832
01:49:47,708 --> 01:49:49,875
I'd be getting bags and bags of letters,

1833
01:49:50,166 --> 01:49:51,666
handwritten letters asking about it.

1834
01:49:51,791 --> 01:49:52,833
Oh, bag 27.

1835
01:49:53,333 --> 01:49:55,708
And Lego was phenomenal.

1836
01:49:56,291 --> 01:49:57,208
Whoever helped me, I

1837
01:49:57,208 --> 01:49:57,875
don't remember her name,

1838
01:49:57,875 --> 01:49:59,541
which I'm sure she gave it to me,

1839
01:49:59,541 --> 01:50:01,458
but I spent 10 minutes

1840
01:50:01,458 --> 01:50:02,000
on the phone with her,

1841
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:03,041
but she was phenomenal.

1842
01:50:03,625 --> 01:50:05,125
Just filled it no matter what.

1843
01:50:05,125 --> 01:50:06,791
It's free, it's coming in the mail.

1844
01:50:07,583 --> 01:50:09,291
They said it's rare, but it does happen.

1845
01:50:09,583 --> 01:50:09,958
Super nice.

1846
01:50:10,458 --> 01:50:12,416
Oh my gosh, that is fantastic.

1847
01:50:12,916 --> 01:50:14,583
And so the Eiffel Tower

1848
01:50:14,583 --> 01:50:17,083
will have progress again.

1849
01:50:17,416 --> 01:50:17,875
Will rise.

1850
01:50:18,250 --> 01:50:19,000
It will rise.

1851
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:21,791
Wow, it's like a Phoenix.

1852
01:50:22,416 --> 01:50:23,125
No, I thought you were

1853
01:50:23,125 --> 01:50:25,166
gonna go with like Olympus.

1854
01:50:26,166 --> 01:50:28,625
Rising above the Serengeti.

1855
01:50:28,625 --> 01:50:30,125
Oh, I missed it, man.

1856
01:50:31,375 --> 01:50:32,583
That is my bad.

1857
01:50:32,958 --> 01:50:34,083
Yeah, yeah.

1858
01:50:34,375 --> 01:50:35,166
That will be, when

1859
01:50:35,166 --> 01:50:36,083
this actually comes out,

1860
01:50:36,083 --> 01:50:37,166
that'll be a reference to

1861
01:50:37,166 --> 01:50:40,125
last Monday's morning serial.

1862
01:50:40,500 --> 01:50:41,291
Yeah, yeah.

1863
01:50:41,625 --> 01:50:42,541
Yeah, one of the

1864
01:50:42,541 --> 01:50:43,583
greatest lyrics of all time.

1865
01:50:44,291 --> 01:50:45,333
Oh, it is, I mean.

1866
01:50:45,666 --> 01:50:45,916
Yeah.

1867
01:50:46,208 --> 01:50:47,083
It's because

1868
01:50:47,083 --> 01:50:49,333
Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus

1869
01:50:50,000 --> 01:50:51,041
above the Serengeti.

1870
01:50:51,750 --> 01:50:52,375
You can hear a clip of

1871
01:50:52,375 --> 01:50:54,166
that if you go to Instagram's

1872
01:50:54,166 --> 01:50:55,041
morning serial podcast.

1873
01:50:55,541 --> 01:50:57,291
Yeah, I'm excited to hear it.

1874
01:50:58,000 --> 01:50:58,458
I really am.

1875
01:50:58,958 --> 01:51:00,875
I, as a child, I had that record.

1876
01:51:02,083 --> 01:51:03,000
Total half a cup. The actual record.

1877
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:04,000
Yeah, yeah, you told me that.

1878
01:51:04,041 --> 01:51:05,416
Yep, and we used to listen to it.

1879
01:51:05,416 --> 01:51:06,750
We'd be playing in the basement.

1880
01:51:06,791 --> 01:51:07,750
You guys had a lot more records,

1881
01:51:07,750 --> 01:51:08,125
because your family

1882
01:51:08,125 --> 01:51:09,333
was a musical family too.

1883
01:51:09,666 --> 01:51:10,416
We were, we always had music.

1884
01:51:10,916 --> 01:51:12,666
I only had two records.

1885
01:51:13,500 --> 01:51:14,125
We Are the World.

1886
01:51:14,625 --> 01:51:15,541
Yeah, that's a good one.

1887
01:51:15,958 --> 01:51:17,375
Was one, and I'm sure there was something

1888
01:51:17,375 --> 01:51:18,500
on the backside of that that

1889
01:51:18,500 --> 01:51:19,666
I don't recall what it was.

1890
01:51:20,416 --> 01:51:21,708
We had Michael Jackson Thriller record.

1891
01:51:22,666 --> 01:51:23,500
Do you still have it?

1892
01:51:23,500 --> 01:51:24,333
I mean, I'm sure that's

1893
01:51:24,333 --> 01:51:25,708
worth so much money, an original.

1894
01:51:25,708 --> 01:51:26,416
I have just some parents.

1895
01:51:27,208 --> 01:51:27,500
Yeah.

1896
01:51:27,791 --> 01:51:28,541
I remember.

1897
01:51:28,541 --> 01:51:29,333
If there's anything we

1898
01:51:29,333 --> 01:51:30,458
asked them for, I'd want that.

1899
01:51:30,708 --> 01:51:32,125
Yeah, that's, because

1900
01:51:32,125 --> 01:51:33,416
I know we had that one.

1901
01:51:34,166 --> 01:51:35,125
As everybody knows now,

1902
01:51:35,125 --> 01:51:36,166
I'm the world's number one

1903
01:51:36,166 --> 01:51:37,000
Michael Jackson fan.

1904
01:51:38,333 --> 01:51:39,833
You are, and that one is still a show.

1905
01:51:40,166 --> 01:51:41,041
Primarily because he

1906
01:51:41,041 --> 01:51:42,500
and I dance so similar.

1907
01:51:43,125 --> 01:51:45,250
Oh, you can do a mean moonwalk.

1908
01:51:45,250 --> 01:51:47,750
And I've taught it to, as well.

1909
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:49,666
So I passed it on generationally.

1910
01:51:49,916 --> 01:51:51,875
Yes, he can do it very well.

1911
01:51:52,958 --> 01:51:55,666
I, ironically, as the person who spent--

1912
01:51:55,750 --> 01:51:56,333
The dancer.

1913
01:51:56,333 --> 01:51:57,583
15 years dancing, yeah.

1914
01:51:58,041 --> 01:51:59,666
Can't do the moonwalk to save my life.

1915
01:51:59,666 --> 01:52:01,083
Yeah, you're more of a choreographed

1916
01:52:01,083 --> 01:52:01,958
dancer, I would say.

1917
01:52:02,583 --> 01:52:02,916
For sure.

1918
01:52:03,458 --> 01:52:03,500
Yeah.

1919
01:52:03,833 --> 01:52:05,500
That is more my training, so.

1920
01:52:05,791 --> 01:52:08,166
But yeah, I mean, all good music.

1921
01:52:08,791 --> 01:52:11,041
So I am excited though to watch it,

1922
01:52:11,041 --> 01:52:12,208
because maybe during the Super Bowl,

1923
01:52:12,208 --> 01:52:13,375
you can continue to build it.

1924
01:52:13,375 --> 01:52:14,083
Although our oldest

1925
01:52:14,083 --> 01:52:15,208
said that he might invite

1926
01:52:15,208 --> 01:52:16,541
some friends over, so I'm excited.

1927
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:17,458
Okay, all right.

1928
01:52:17,875 --> 01:52:19,833
I'd welcome his buddies over anytime.

1929
01:52:20,500 --> 01:52:21,500
Well, go Swifties.

1930
01:52:21,500 --> 01:52:23,000
Hopefully it's a good show.

1931
01:52:23,541 --> 01:52:25,125
Well, so you're officially

1932
01:52:25,125 --> 01:52:26,208
cheering for the Chiefs then.

1933
01:52:26,250 --> 01:52:26,750
Oh, officially

1934
01:52:26,750 --> 01:52:27,750
cheering for the Chiefs, yeah.

1935
01:52:28,000 --> 01:52:30,000
And I figured that would be the case,

1936
01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:31,583
because as usual, I mean,

1937
01:52:31,750 --> 01:52:34,000
we're so close that, you know,

1938
01:52:34,000 --> 01:52:35,125
you cheer for the same team,

1939
01:52:35,125 --> 01:52:37,500
because you practically finished my--

1940
01:52:38,583 --> 01:52:39,000
Sandcastles.

1941
01:52:40,833 --> 01:52:42,916
(laughing)

1942
01:52:45,708 --> 01:52:46,625
You tried to hold it in.

1943
01:52:48,750 --> 01:52:49,916
We cannot end with

1944
01:52:49,916 --> 01:52:51,041
that every single time,

1945
01:52:51,541 --> 01:52:53,500
with me just throwing out the lamest,

1946
01:52:54,500 --> 01:52:56,333
finished my, like, it's the lamest.

1947
01:52:57,125 --> 01:52:57,833
It's so funny.

1948
01:52:58,583 --> 01:52:59,458
Is it funny though?

1949
01:52:59,458 --> 01:52:59,875
I don't know.

1950
01:53:00,375 --> 01:53:00,791
All right.

1951
01:53:01,583 --> 01:53:02,458
I think that's it.

1952
01:53:02,458 --> 01:53:03,125
I mean, at least we get

1953
01:53:03,125 --> 01:53:04,583
real after at the end of it.

1954
01:53:05,875 --> 01:53:08,708
Have a great week, everyone.

1955
01:53:09,083 --> 01:53:09,833
We'll see you next time.

1956
01:53:10,333 --> 01:53:11,000
Have a good one.

1957
01:53:11,583 --> 01:53:13,750
(upbeat music)
