Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning, And if you
look at the news right now, you might be worried
that the world's becoming too stable, too harmonious, happy. That's
how everybody feels.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
You.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Well, don't pain it, because things are still dramatic and
tumultuous as ever in all of our personal lives.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
So let's bring back.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
The chaos with another edition of What's on Your Mind?
Starting with Brooke Brook, What's on your Mind?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
You know this is gonna sound kind of deep, but
I think I finally understand what true love is.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Oh, you've been married, What are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
When I was younger, I thought true love was like
big romantic gestures and exotic vacations together and gazing into
one each other's eyes and being so attracted to the
person that you're with.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Now you're not into any of that stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
That stuff's cool, right, But that's not where the real
stuff happens.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Okay, where does the real stuff happen?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
True uve happens at two in the morning. We have
multiple puking children, and you're covered in vomited and you're
having to do laundry, and you have a partner who
is right there with you making it all happen.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I say, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
It is absolutely disgusting.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Yea smells terrible.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
True love does not smell good.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
But kind a partner who will share all of that
with you and take all that work on that is amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
I guess the Harmony has to change their slogan to
whatever bromellsmells.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Keeps up in the morning where your children are.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
And bounty and when you just hear the sound of
the irping from the other room, you're not going to
go into the battle zone alone.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
That that right there.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Is knowing that you have somebody.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
I'm glad you found it, bro, Yeah, but I hope
you all find it somebody.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
But Jose, what's on your mind?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Well, recently I had the honor of being a pallbear
on my grand funeral, and I was a pallbearer for
my grandpa as well. So I have done this before,
and the last time we did it, my dad was
right in front of me, so I assumed, Hey, we're
gonna do the same thing. Well, right before the funeral,
my dad tells all the groomsman, hey, guys, I threw
my shoulder out and so I need to use my left,
(02:19):
so I follow him to his side so he can
use his left.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Now I'm using my left, but I'm still behind my dad.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
So I'm like, things are gonna be fine.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Right.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
So it comes to pulling up the casket, I can
barely hold it right, I am like struggling immediately, and
I almost drop it because my left grandma because on
my left arm. So what they do is they see
the caskets struggling and they tap my dad out, thinking.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Oh it's the old old guys.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Yeah, so they sup in my little fifteen year old nephew, my.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Thirteen year old nephew. Sorry, helpful, You're right, Brook, not helpful.
I am doing all the work.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
My hand hurts so bad, it's like white knuckles. After
we get it on, my uncle looks back because we're
still in a procession, and he's like, walk in Jose,
come on, man, you know.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
So I'm humiliated. People know something's going on. Right, the
casket was not even right.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
But after the ceremony, we have to move her back
into their hurts right, so I request. I'm like, put
me on the right side, let me use my right
hand a strong arm.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I did, and then.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
I'm like dude, I'm gonna flex, I'm gonna hot dog
and I'm gonna like lift this up. Then I'm gonna
really show out.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Over my shoulder, do a full like clean Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
But then I realized that I should have made a
scene at the funeral. But the rumor at the end
of the funerals like Jose almost dropped Grandma. I'm like, no,
I did not almost drug Grandma.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
And I love Grandma and I never did. I did
not drop her. He did just for the history.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
If anyway, Paul Baron out there, you gotta do some
curls or something.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Sometimes, you know, weird fitness trends start in like accidental ways.
So next week, join Jose at the gym for coffin
squats with grain.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I gad rip all the muscles in my shoulders. So
much pain right now.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
You're gonna get so many good gains though, So Alexis,
tell us what's been on your mind?
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Speaking of fitness trends, I found a hack to motivate
myself to work out after like a night out. Yeah
the next.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Morning, not sure.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
I work out in the morning, yes, girl, I know.
And I started this because first, like when you choose,
we're going to get drinks like as friends. I make
sure it's within like six miles in my.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
House, and I know it's a pretty big grea.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
No, I don't uber. I drive and I park at it.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Okay, drinks, I go out and then my car is
left there and in the morning, so I get home somehow,
one way or another, you know which, that's.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
The responsible part of what you're doing.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
I do get home, and then the next morning I
have to get my car.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Naturally, and it's like close enough.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
So it's.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Expensive to uber.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Exactly how many what's on your minds we're going to
do before it's Alexis got her car too, because you
didn't wake up.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
I checked a side and then the next morning I
had my five and a half mile run to.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
My car hungover, I was.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
That's why I was smart enough to leave a water
bottle inside my car when I went out to dinner,
so then when I get to my car, I have water.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
It's like old Alexis is taking such good care of
future Alexa.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Every time Alexis does something dumb or cheap, instead of
saying I made a mistake, she says, I figured out
a new life.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I would do it again.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
And if you see me hungover running, find your business.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
All right, jeffyone's on your mind.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Guys.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I have the nicest neighbor, And when I tell you
the story, you're all going to be jealous because you
don't have neighbors like this. But his name is Tony,
and he's a little bit older than he's like, married
with kids. And I think he must feel bad for
me because I'm a new homeowner and I'm a total
(06:07):
novice of taking care of stuff outside of the house.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
I out in the yard.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah, he heard about your mailbox fiasco.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, And I just I don't have a lot of
the big landscaping tools and equipment stuff that everybody else has.
All the power tools, right, So he lets me borrow his,
and he always gives me a tutorial on how to use.
Like yesterday he was showing me how to weed whack
this area. So he lets me hold it and I'm
(06:33):
whacking while he stands behind me. Wait a minute, and
he's just guiding me, showing me how to grip it,
how to like throttle it up, and he like whispers
over my shoulder instructions like okay, lower, give me more.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Sure, that's how you're supposed to, like teach a girl
to play pool.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
You feel that, Yeah, I feel that that's how it's done.
This is actually actually really reassuring. And it's not just
what the weed whackers either. He's he's doing it with
like my hedge trimmers.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Even did it with the rake. You didn't know how
to use a rap, not properly. We did the rake lessons.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Even though there were there weren't any leaves for us
to rape. He still wanted to show me the proper technique.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Stroke stroke poll.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Is too violent, you gentle strokes across the lawns.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
If you're enjoying it, we love this for you.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, he really is the greatest neighbor ever. He even
puts one of his AirPods into my ear so nice said, he.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Wants you to be in rhythm with you to send them.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I knew you'd be jealous of everything. We haven't got
there yet, but I'm excited to learn. That's what's on
our minds. And you can text into seven eighty five,
nine to two, tell us what's been on yours.
