Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You know, it's wild what it is almost officially the summer,
Like Memorial Day isn't that far from this very moment.
It's next Friday weekend. Memorial weekend would be next weekend. Yeah,
that's kind of crazy that I mean. And then the
summer means that you're halfway through your year, which means
it's already it may as well already, which you can

(00:22):
round up if you're running up by ten. So welcome
to the My Day Friday podcast. My name is Anthony,
I'm Carl Murray. And before we get into anything, quick
reminder that we launched another podcast and it's totally different
than this one. So this is more of us just talking.
We'll read some of your emails, especially in this podcast today,

(00:43):
which is more of like a follow up the last
week's podcast. The podcast that we launched back in February
is called the Morning Show Podcast. And how would you
describe it. It's the daily dose of audio you need
to make your day a little better. Very good, Carl.
It's almost like someone else wrote that down back in
the day, and then you're back in the day when
we were launching it. Yeah, that's the best way to

(01:05):
describe it. It's essentially a everything you love about radio
morning shows without everything you don't love. So we would
love for you to check that out. It's called The
Morning Show Podcast, and there will be a link to
that podcast in the description of today's Monday Friday episode. Now,

(01:26):
we also last week talked about things you changed as
a parent, because neither of us are parents, but things
you changed as a person when you became a parent.
We're gonna get into those emails a couple other things.
Should I wish I do hear Carlamura this one Friday,

(01:53):
it's Pete went from Far Boy and you're listening to
my two favorite people, Carla Marie in a Today Friday. Hi,
I'm carry hi only Hi I'm dressing Hi am Jays
I will and you'll listen to Yes. I hope you're

(02:15):
having a phenomenal weekend so far or maybe the middle
of the week. If you're listening to this on a Wednesday,
I know that even though we call it the Monday
Friday Podcast, you might not listen to it until Saturday
or Sunday. But either way, thank you very much for
hanging out with us. Um we we do want to
get into a couple emails. Yes, because we weren't that

(02:35):
great at responding to Hello at Carla Marine Anthony dot com.
This is how we respond and this is how we're
gonna do it. So the first thing we mentioned about
two weeks ago was is there anyone out there who
thinks they've listened to like all of the things that
we've put out, like every piece of audio or even video.
And Ericape says she has listened not only to every

(02:56):
Monday Friday podcast, but she has listened to every watched
every Twitch show or YouTube. She has listened to every
on demand version of our old radio show Damn that
we had, and we used to have a bonus podcast
called the Last Called Podcast. Listen to all that, Let's see.
Porsche W said all podcasts, she's listened to, every single one.

(03:16):
Nicole Nicole W said My Day Friday, the Morning Show podcast,
and Twitch She's watched everything. And then Lindsay said, although
she has watched every podcast, she has not watched every Twitch.
She's listened to every podcast. Yes, listen to every podcast.
She has not watched every Twitch, which is okay. Twitch
is also tougher because it is live, you know, and
if you're not in it live. I don't know, even

(03:38):
though it's on YouTube or you can watch a few
subscribe on Twitch, a lot of different A lot of
people watch on YouTube as like they're cooking. That's true. Yeah,
you just don't have the immediate interaction, but people will
leave comments and stuff like that. It's still a great show. So,
Carla Marie, uh. Since we were last on this podcast,
you've had a very interesting week with Max Murrie. I

(04:00):
have my cat, my favorite cat, favorite cat decided last
Sunday morning at two am she was going to vomit
and then continue to vomit for thirty hours. She threw
up twelve times. Could you imagine you as a human
threw up twelve times without like not being hungover? Right,
I can't imagine the twelve times being hungover. That's like
or what I'm just saying for no reason, right? And

(04:23):
I finally get her to her vet. I kept calling
all these e R places over the weekend and they
were like, she probably should be seen, but like so
and I found this out. There's actually a vet and
a vet tech shortage across the country. My cousin's a
vet tech in Jersey, and she said it's so bad, right,
now my friend is a VET tech here at an
e R place and she's been working thirteen hour shifts.

(04:45):
It's like, so now is the time to come a
VET tech? Just saying I think there's there's a shortage
in a lot of jobs for a couple of reasons.
One and I mentioned this on the Morning Show podcast
not to get Graham, but like people died. A million
people died of COVID or of COVID related things in
the last two years, and so many people are like, yeah,
but them were over sixty five. But yeah, Like, but

(05:07):
you could be a VET till you're like eighty. And
I guess what happens when when older people who are unretired,
who are not retired, I should say, um, I guess
what happens when those employed older people die, someone takes
their jobs and you move up and then that that
lower level. You also do have a lot of people
who put school on hold, Like even if it was
VET school, right and you're in VET school or you're

(05:28):
about to go to VET school, I'm gonna wait a
year or I want the in person, I'm just not
going to do it now. I think there's gonna be
there's also an interesting thing happening with entry level jobs
because for such a long time we were told like
this happened with us when we got into radio. It's like, oh,
you gotta pay your dues, right, you're gonna make crap money,
you're gonna struggle, you're gonna be taking advantage of and

(05:51):
all of it was seen as paying your dues until
you got that big job. And don't get me wrong,
I don't think when you come out of college you
need to be making four hundred thousand dollars to do
a task that you know it might not be as
important as other jobs, but in a company. But the
interesting thing is now that so many people can make

(06:11):
money on their own on their own terms, whether you're
an Uber driver or whether you're a delivery person whatever,
an Instagram influencer, because guests who TikTok and Instagram influencers
tend to be younger people. Um, you're seeing people say, well,
I don't want to go work for that company make
crep money beyond their schedule all the time. I'm just

(06:32):
gonna do things on my own and even if I'm
not making great money, I'm still doing it on my
schedule for myself and I think that's one of the
things that's creating a void as well. Yeah, and for sure, obviously,
like when you get into the jobs that are like
I said, like bets and stuff that require schooling and
then internships and like residencies, like so it's not like

(06:53):
you can skip over those things, right like, oh, two
years past, I'll just skip you know, the things I
had to do or move forward just because time passed,
Like those are certain jobs that you can't fast track.
You can try and saying you can't rush those, so
I'm gonna be I'm a vet tech. I think, do
you know how long is that supposed to take? Because
my cousin's a vet in Canada and it took her

(07:13):
a while. It's apparently really hard because it's not just
all my friends took the animal studies class at University
of Rhode Island and I didn't know. All they do
is complained about how hard it was, and I was
so glad I didn't because you're not just learning the
human body male versus female. You're learning everything. But there
are some vets that are just cat mets, and I
would go there. I'm so good with Max, but I

(07:35):
understand you can be a cat vet right or a
large animal farm animal vet or whatever. But I'm pretty
sure and anyone can correct me. You still have to
go through all of the other schooling. You can't just
go to whatever university or school and say, hey, I
only want to learn about cats today because they don't
have like a cat specific class. Well, and I have
to be able to cut animals open. I guess I

(07:59):
have to find out. So. Um there's a vet in
England who has helped me a lot with Max. He's
a fan of Elvice Round in the Morning Show. He's
been on the t J Show podcast. His name is Brian.
He's amazing. He will randomly send me photos of like, hey,
this happened. Do you want to see it? And I'm
like yeah, yeah, yeah. Or he's like, oh I had
this an we get birth, like twelve baby pigs. Do
you want to say it? I'm like, yes, you know,

(08:20):
I got to see this week. He didn't. He's never
had this happen before. Um, a mom cat got I think?
Is it? Master sitist? You know want like your breast
milk gets stuck in the ducks. That's the thing that happens.
He had to like do surgery and like get it
all out. That's so I think I want to do it,
but I can't. I couldn't deal with the people like me,
like my vet had to deal with all week. So

(08:42):
why why were you bad to your vetex? I was, no,
no, no no, it's been very nice. I was texting them
daily about Max. Take her to the vedom Monday and
they're like, we don't know what's wrong with her. Um,
we're gonna do an X ray and they gave her
some anti nage of medication. She as they told me,
it refused fluids when they took her to the back,
so she said I'm sorry, no, thank you. So we

(09:02):
go home and she stopped throwing up. She didn't get
much better. So that was Monday. By Wednesday, she still
hadn't eaten since Saturday, so it's a lot of days,
a lot. They took her in as an urgent care
patient and she spent the day there and I was
just like I would text them, call them, just checking in, Hey,
this is what's going on, because like you don't like

(09:23):
the only way to take care of a sick animal
is to over not overtreat, over react, I guess because
you don't actually know what's wrong. So if I was
just like, she's thrown up, she'll be fine, And aren't
cats Like they don't really show what they're sick, other
than sleeping a little more every time I right or anyone,
I was like, I know, she seems like she's acting fine.

(09:43):
Like know, the whole thing with cats is that they
do everything they can to hide the fact that they're sick.
Do you think that's like a survival mechanism, Like, Oh,
I can't let other predators know that I'm sick because
then they're going to make me their prey probably, or
they're gonna like fight me for my food because they
know I'm weak. Probably. So I haven't even shared this yet.
I'm waiting for the full story from the vet. But
she got an ultrasound here today that a shave a

(10:05):
little belly and sedator because she was not having it,
and they found that her intestines are a bit swollen
and it looks like or like double layering or something
which could be inflammatory bowel disease or a g I
track disease. Okay, yeah, what inflammatory bowel? I thought it

(10:28):
was inflammatory? Do you have that? I don't, so I
guess something similar, but she doesn't have your it's just inflame.
She's not pooping everywhere. I feel like I got great
bowels that you forgot to the other day. But did
I really it's the second third time. Well, listen, I've
been here for over a year. If I forgot three times,

(10:48):
I'd say that's pretty good. And you know, I'm glad
you brought that up, Carl Marie, because Carla Mae doesn't
flush when she peas. Okay, if it's yellow, let it mellow,
crown flush it down. No, because regard list of the color,
there is an odor. It is in there for like overnight. Okay,
I don't do it overnight, in the middle of the night.
I do because I'm not flushing in the middle of
the night. It's cloud What do you do You think

(11:10):
there's a radiator in there? Like, I don't flush in
the middle of night. It's too noisy. Never there's You
even have a special the special toilets that have like
the half flush. You have to close the lid also, Yeah,
so it shouldn't stink. No, it stinks worse when the
lids closed because it keeps all of it in there. Okay,
we as a planet do not have enough water for

(11:31):
you to flush every time you then you need to stop,
and I'm gonna starting the tub. No, the whole part,
the whole point of those like half flushed toilets is
it uses less water if you tell it, Hey, I
just peet, I just tinkled. No, it's just not how
that works in this house. If it's yellow, let it mellow.
If it's brown, flush it down. Shout out Mrs chen In,
my seventh grade science teacher who taught me that you

(11:53):
should always flush, because then you get a ring as well. Okay,
no one's coming over live here. Then you clean it.
That's what we have a spray for in there. But
I shouldn't have to anyway. This is all because you
forgot flush your poop. Yeah, it happens. I guess three
times in a year and a half ain't too bad anyway.
So Max is okay. She's on a bit of pain

(12:15):
meds right now. They were originally treating for pancreatitis, even
though her blood work said no to pancreay titis. But
they were like, this is what it seems like. She's
on anti naja pain meds and an appetite inducer. Is
that it. I feel like there's one more thing. She's
eating her food and she's high as ful sounds fun.
So not to one up Max or anything, but I've
had a rough week as well. I woke up this

(12:37):
morning and I guess this just happens as you get older.
And I'm I'm nearing my birthday. It's about a month away.
Oh my god, I forgot Um you better. Um. I
woke up this morning and my wrist hurt for no reason.
And I'm not talking like sore, like oh I worked
out yesterday and I have a little store. I'm talking
my wrist hurt where I was like I can't move

(12:58):
my hand. That was like my neck last week. Why
does this happen? And I still I went. I did
my day at the gym because I don't gonna missed
another day. It hurt a lot. Maybe shouldn't did that,
So I had to like scale back on some of
the exercises. You need to go to the chiropractor who
will work on it. Yeah, I do. I think what

(13:19):
I'm gonna do. Actually, this is very adult of me.
I'm gonna do a week of appointments. Okay, So I'm
going to have a chiropractor appointment. Dentist appointment. Um, this
is like my regular week, what else, oh, dentists? So
I want to go a chiropractor dentist set up my physical.
The last time I went to the dentist was literally

(13:39):
the week after we got fired from my Heart Radio
because we both realized that I guess I don't know
if this works with every how this works with every company,
but with the insurance and the way that I Heart
Radio worked, if you got fired on the first day
of the month, you had your insurance for the rest
of the month. If you got fired like we did,

(14:00):
very close to the end of the month seven days
before the month ended, you only had until the end
of the month. So regardless of when you got fired,
expired at the end of that calendar month. So we
got fired on the twenty fourth. Yeah that sounds right. Um,
And that was a Friday, obviously, and we had to
gather our emotions for the weekend. And on Monday we

(14:21):
realized like we really had four more days. I was
like I was getting I went to the German cholerance.
I was like, can you please fill my face off?
Like all this different stuff. So I remember calling my dentist.
And luckily I had this dentist for a while. She
knew what I did for a living because it was
right down the street from my apartment. And I said, Hey,
this is gonna sound really weird. Uh, do you have
any spots I am wide over this weekend? Do you

(14:44):
have any spots for a cleaning? Um? She's like, are
you in pain? I said no, but I got fired
and I'm not gonna have health insurance after this week
and she's like, you know what, let me call there's
a couple of people I might be able to move around.
And then they got me into and they got Carla
Marine as well. Then they told me I had seven
cave of these, I had none, but I didn't my
and then my other dentist was like, no, every every

(15:05):
dentist apparently has a I guess a parameter or the threshold.
That's the word threshold for cavities. So I didn't have seven,
but I'm so grateful they got me and they cleaned
me up, and then I went back and got like
two filled. And now I have a different dentist who,
um is wonderful. I didn't have any cavities then, which

(15:25):
was great. I have a feeling it's gonna be way
worse now because and this is this is gonna get
slightly depressing. I feel like I gotten to a point
for a while where I just wasn't taking care of myself.
I think everyone's gotten there, you know, especially, I mean,
there was there was a lockdown because of the pandemic.
There was the fact that we got let go. Like
I was a mess for a while in terms of
just not having any real structure, and I kind of

(15:47):
like fell apart, not in like I wasn't moping around
every day. I just didn't do the things that I
would normally do to take care of myself. And some
of that was brushing even brushing my teeth multiple times
a day, and that's acceptable. Um So I feel like it.
I'll probably have a capital or two when I go back.
I definitely have something going on. I go on Tuesday
to get a cleaning. I can make an appointment for
you when I'm there. No, I'm going to go to
my my dentist here. I got a hundred all off coupon.

(16:11):
Gotta gotta check on that Obamacare. See what's going on. No,
we don't have dental well. I has to have to
also check on my Obamacare to see if I can
make a regular doctor's appointment. Okay, are you gonna do
a colonoscopy next? Why not? It's not that birthday? Where
do you think I'm doing well? Is it? If it
runs in your family, you're supposed to get a check
now and it doesn't. You have no telling issues in

(16:32):
your family? M No, Honestly, I've had a couple of
family members with various cancers. Like nothing that has been right.
He seems hereditary. Um, and I you know, knock on wood.
I'm I'm kind of blessed in that regard, But like,
don't you feel like you should get it checked? Why not?
I just don't need to because everything is working fine,

(16:52):
everything feels fine. But like this is called preventative care.
That's why I have to go and I get pasts mirrors.
What kind of old ask disc Russian are we having
right now? We're going to Costco for fun tonight. Okay, now,
let me explain something. When I go to get my physical,
if anything comes back at any of those charts and
they're like, oh this is a little high, blah blah blah,
I have no problem saying Okay, well, is there a

(17:13):
test I should take? Like right now? Camera up the butt,
light me up whatever, like literally put a flashlight, jam
it up there and do what ever. You starts around,
go spelunking. I don't care who who signs up for
that job? How was there a shortage of vet text
not a shortage of butt camera people? Because but camera
people probably make a lot more money. What are we
talking here? I don't know. I don't know. What is

(17:34):
your name as a doctor? Then camera person? Oh, I
don't know. I'm googling because that's what I have to
I know one of my friends gastro ontologists, yeahrologist, all right,
Remember they made me poop in a bag and I
had to bring it to get tested. I don't remember that. Yeah,
you were so mad when I told you how to

(17:55):
do it. I have no recollection. I had to put
like a bag in my toilet because they were didn't
know what was wrong with me. Again, I have no
recollection of this. And I would have been fine if
I lived the rest of my life like that would
have been totally fine. Now that we've gone through cat problems,
getting older, my my sore, my limp wrist, isn't that

(18:17):
a band limp biscuit. Do you like my joke? No? Wow,
it's caffeine gummy had just kicking in. It makes me funny, Carla. Yes,
she did force She force fed me a caffeine gout
me before we kicked out this podcast. These gummies, I'll
tell you what. This is a great commercial for Seattle
Gummy company. They have fueled my week. Well, let me

(18:38):
tell you it's not that I was tired necessarily before
we did this podcast, but I did wake up. Um,
I went to the gym. Right, it's the heaviest week
of the program that I'm doing, so I really pushed
myself at the gym. And then on top of that,
I've been catching so many Pokemon tired, exhausted egg. I

(18:59):
think it's time to put it away. No, I can't.
I'm so close. I'm most stop in Pokemon Emerald. It's
so good, I'm gonna snap. It's so bad. I want
to snap that screen. How No, this screen, this is
actually very valuable game Boy Now for all the nerds
out there, this is the game Boy Advanced sp Okay,
did you ever have a game Boy color car? Yeah?

(19:20):
And you take pictures with it or something? What the
camera attachment. Do you still have that in like your
parents house somewhere? Because I was about to buy one
for fifty bucks the other day. It was green. That
doesn't answer my question. You let go? Uh we have to,
I mean we I went there, I went up into
the crawling closet. This seven. This is what I'm gonna

(19:41):
need you to do when you go back. Now you're
coming with the Marie's household. You don't want me in
that house, especially if there's two There's two reasons you
don't want me in that house. One, if we're if
you tell me there's pokemon stuff there, You're gonna go
catch them all. I'm gonna catch them all. Secondly, I
feel like from what I have seen in the Marie
household North Arlington, New Jersey, on shout to the street.

(20:05):
From what I have seen, your dad specifically likes to
keep a lot of things, and your mom likes to
buy a lot of things. My dad keeps, my mom
brings them in, and my dad won't let her get
read of them. It's it is a whip for me.
I am the antithesis of that. I am a don't
buy me anything, and I'm going to throw everything out,

(20:27):
So help me up there. Putting me up there, Carlbury,
whether it's an attict, putting me down there in a basement,
out there in the garage, up down or out wherever
you put me. Uh, your parents are gonna get real
mad because they'll they'll come back to the house with nothing.
There will be literally out. You're just going to help
me find Yeah, But then I'll look at something and
be like, why does why does your mom need an

(20:49):
engraved plate with It's a great question. I asked the
same questions, why do you need fifteen curtains? But here's
what I would do. I would just throw it out
because my momm has taught me that's what she does
with my dad. My dad will never hear this. Ever,
when he goes fishing for the weekend, she does like
she'll purge crazy because the garbage will come before she's

(21:12):
even putting stuff in the car and thrown it out
at like or donated it right whatever. But now a
few years ago, my brother bought ring cameras the whole
house and my like, my mom doesn't even have the apps.
Just turned the cameras. He will know, he will know it.
It chimes when the freaking tree moves in the wind
here ding ding all the time, and he'll like be like,

(21:33):
what are you throwing out? So I've done it to
her before before we move on, because there was the
game Boy Talk a second ago, and we might have
to go explore go spelunking in in Freddie Marie's basement. Um,
I you spelunking twice in this podcast today. One was
about butts and the other was about storage. So this
is the game Boy Advanced sp So you had the

(21:56):
original game Boy right that you had the Game Boy
Pocket which was thinner, and he had the Game Boy Color.
And the Game Boy Color did have a at the
time a very high tech screen because it had it
was screen, but it wasn't like back lit like your
phone is, right. It was like if possible to see

(22:18):
the screen at night. So then they came out with
a light or something. There was a light attachment in
which I have um. Then they came out with the
Game Boy Advance, which was very similar to the Game
Boy Color, different types of games, better graphics, and it
was like long ways, it was like kind of how
you But then they came out with the game Boy

(22:41):
Advanced SP which is this foldable one that I have.
And if you look at the back, this is how
you know if you're on eBay, or if you're on
um offer Up or one of those websites, or even
at a garage sale, right, and you see a game
Boy that folds like, I need to know if that's
a good one or not. You look at the back
and the model number. We'll say A G S one

(23:04):
oh one. Let me tell you why, Because an A
G S one oh one has a backlit screen, which
is why when I turn it on you could see
it in the dark, because it actually has light that
comes from it. Why can't you just turn it on?
Why are we gonna look at these stupid numbers? Because well,
I'm saying, if if they don't have a cartridge in there,
or if if it's not charged right, or if it's

(23:25):
a bad picture online, if it's an A G S
zero zero one, that means it's not a back lit screen.
Less valuable mind took photos and you can print them
as tiny little stickers. Yeah, we gotta find that. I mean,
the camera's really not worth a lot. What's the game
boy color? Green? The green game Boy color? If it's

(23:46):
in good condition, it has the back the back panel
for the batteries. Do you know if it has the
back panel for the batteries opposed to not having a backpacker?
Like it's open? Yeah, like someone lost it. Why would
you lose the panel? You have no idea how many
game Boys I have come across as I scoured the
internet do people put their batter Think about it. It's
with a kid, generally speaking, and it words in storage.

(24:08):
It gets it just gets lost. It's not like it
doesn't work without the battery panel. Um. I would say
that game Boy color, it depends on the shade of
green it is. You could get a hundred bucks for it.
I was hoping for a couple hundred No, no, no,
Although the one that I have been looking for. And
if you got one, hit me up and we'll talk
and maybe I'll buy it from you. Um is the

(24:30):
game Boy Micro? Think about this for a second, car
and everyone listening. I went to the Nintendo store in
New York City one day when I was working for
my dad. I had just graduated high school, I believe,
and they came out with a thing called the game
Boy Micro. Have you ever heard of this? So? The
game Boy Micro had a backlit screen like that when
I was talking to you about And they didn't really

(24:51):
make it for a long time, because it's right before
they launched, like their new verb, like they don't even
call things game boy anymore. It was DS right, this
came out right before or that. It's called the game
Boy Micro and right, and I bought one for I
think it was eighty nine or nine dollars about a
year ago. I asked my brothers because we used to

(25:12):
have in our parents attict like all of our games,
and said, hey, has anyone seen my game Boy Micro?
I was just in Ridgewood and I couldn't find it.
My brother's a goal. I gave it to my friend.
I think he may have sold it for like fifty bucks.
People are selling that thing now, especially the model that
I had, for five hundred dollars. So your brother owes
you five dollars. No, Justin or Michael Justin, He does

(25:34):
not owe me anything. It was just up there. He
had a friend he wanted to give it to. Anyway,
that's fine. If my sister's old took something little and
sold some of that was mine, Justin, Uh, it does
not owe me anything for it. But I've been scouring.
I've been scouring looking on offer up and stuff like that.
I've reached out to a couple of people. They're not
great at responding. Might have to rate them low on
offer up. But if you have a game Boy Micro,

(25:57):
do you want to reach out to me? Go for
it at we're st Anthony on Instagram. Why was it
called Gameboy because it's only for boys? Right? You know what,
It's a great question because I don't have the answer
to because I feel like that was kind of I
was like thirteen when I got my first one. It
wasn't only for boys. And that's I can tell you
that because back in the day you proved something wasn't

(26:19):
just for boys by making a pink one. That's what
they would do. And there was definitely a pink game
Boy advance. Now, the last thing we got to talk
about today and we were we got onto a little
aside about our parents. Okay, so last week I don't
even know how we got to it, but we were

(26:40):
talking about how as a parent, whether it's friends we
have known family members, everyone says you change a little
bit when you become parents. Obviously you're a little more
protective all of those things, and that's not what we're
talking about. What we were talking about was charcter traits
or habits that you tried to break or remold when

(27:03):
you became apparent because you didn't want to either pass
them down or you knew how those character traits or
habits held you back. We basically talked about leading by example.
So we got a bunch of really really good emails.
We're not gonna read all of them word for word,
but like this one from one Vasco said when he

(27:23):
became apparent, he has two kids. Now, his big thing was,
you've always got to learn to change with the times
because the things that your kids are dealing with aren't
the things that you were dealing with over years um.
But also to support their dreams regardless of what they are.
And I think that is something that this generation, for
better or worse, has done more than other generations, because

(27:48):
my parents did. But but when you think about it,
you go back a couple of generations and it was
like your parents, if you weren't a lawyer, a doctor,
or what are those, you know, a businessman whatever that means,
but this man businesswoman, you were kind of like a
failure and there are so many different avenues, kind of
like what we were talking about with entry level jobs.

(28:08):
There are so many different avenues to not only make
money and make a living, but to enjoy your life.
There's also so many jobs that parents don't even like
now they were back then, they were like five jobs.
Right now, it's like, oh, there's all these things I
don't understand. I think parents have taken this a back
seat a bit because they don't understand, and we all
The thing we do understand is that the world is

(28:30):
evolving super fast, and because of technology, I think there
is a way bigger gap between us and our parents
and then even like even like our friends who are
having kids now now their babies, but when they get older,
I feel like technology is actually making the gap wider. Yeah,

(28:51):
to a certain point. Um, I think if you're a
generation and where probably where it'll be interesting to see
us like gen Z who grew up with high speed
computers and internet their whole lives. They probably won't have
as difficult of a time understanding their kids technology as
we will or our parents did with us. Because it's

(29:13):
crazy that our parents us has got to be the
biggest what a jump and by the way that age
range would go from like parents that were having their
kids in the mid eighties to those to those kids now.
And it's like, I mean, cell phones didn't exist. The Internet,
other than being used for that by the government, did

(29:33):
not exist, like all of those things that we take
as commonplace. The way you're listening to us right now
didn't exist. Didn't even exist. If you were listening didn't exist.
How wild is this If you're listening to us on
your phone with your wireless headphones. Everything that you're doing
now did not exist. Like if you just plopped right now,

(29:56):
people would be like, look at this weirdo to have
fake headphones and is here without wires? Idiot the tampons,
like exactly, So that's kind of crazy to think. So
thank you to Wan for sending an email. Kelsey G
said her big thing is being more patient and not
letting things get her mad, leading by examples specifically in

(30:18):
that regard, and then this is a tough one, leading
by example when it comes to your phone usage. We
talked about that you talked about in the Morning Show podcast.
I believe right well, yes, And because the study was
that kids that screen time can make kids be more
susceptible than things like a d D anxiety depression or whatever.
And it was like telling parents, you are the kids

(30:41):
will see you on your phone and think it's okay,
and the best medicine is a good example. Exactly so.
But I have said before how my parents, now, granted
I'm an adult and they are older obviously, are on
their phones and iPads more than I am. Yeah, I
mean I'm on my phone a lot, but I would
say my dad is on his He's scrolling on Facebook
more than my mom does. But my mom, she's a

(31:03):
Candy Crush lady. Yeah. Same, And listen, I get the
Facebook and my mom is Candy cry and I get it.
Like I'm sitting here playing Pokemon, right, It's there's really
not much of a difference between Pokemon and Candy Crush.
And Candy Crush, I don't know if you were your
family was all about these things, like Candy Crush is
really just the updated and much more expensive version because

(31:25):
you have to have an iPad or a computer to
play it, or a phone. Um of the old school
video poker games. You guys have those in your bathrooms
growing up? Yeah, we had those, and then when we
got like our first computer. My mom would just play
Solitaire all the time. On the computer. We did Hearts
and I played Solitaire, but Hearts was a big one.
How do I have Doneload? I'm gonna play that solid

(31:46):
here and mind Sweeper It's what I'm gonna play. I
never liked mind Sweeper. I didn't like it until like
a few years ago, when I learned it all the
numbers meant. I think that's why I didn't like it,
because when I was a kid, I was just clicking thing.
There were no instructions and you couldn't google it. Be
first off, car I'm pretty sure you can download one
of the eight thousand Solitaire apps. I want that. I
want that same change. And then I wanted to like

(32:07):
go the cards go everywhere when I win. So I
have a PC and we're recording on a PC right now.
Let me see a Solitaire. Solitaire Collection is the app
that comes on this computer. Oh look at this, Carla Murray.
That's not the right one hold on casual Games by Microsoft.
It came with the game there's a Gateway three thousand. Well,

(32:31):
I don't know if you guys, I heard it, okay,
level one, Gateway three thousand or two thousand. I'll never
I will like core memory. Right there is when that
computer box got deliver to our house and it was
I don't know what's going on. You need the sounds
or twitch. The all over print of the box was
a cow because that was whatever and it was massive,

(32:53):
and my brother bought it for all of us. Oh man,
mind sweeper is on here, but I might have to
download the app so it doesn't come preinstalled. God, let's
bring this Classic Solitaire. It's the Klondike cards. All right,
this isn't the same, but it'll do. But this is
it's very It's as similar as you can get with
using new graphics. Oh, the sounds. I'm here for this.

(33:18):
Let people just hear the sounds. Oh well, I got
really no more moves right now, give me a second.
I'm just checking cut. Okay, well we're not gonna sit
here and just play Soliditaire. But yeah, the sounds are
didn't go through. Did people hear that? I think so? No, wait,
don't talk. I'll look at the numbers there. Yep, everyone

(33:42):
heard that. Whoa you ruining my game? You can start
a new one. No one cares, so that will be
cathartic for me, that will be my version of the game. Boy.
I don't think cathartic is the right word there, because
cathartic is like it's sad but also relieving. Playing Solitaire
should not be a sad experience unless it's your only

(34:03):
option in life. Psychological relief through the open expression of
strong emotions. Crying a good cry is cathartic. People use
that word improperly correct all the time. I'll be better now, however,
I do you need a good cry? And I said
this the other day, I haven't cried this week? Do

(34:27):
you cry every week? No? Dealing with Max, like when
Caroline was sick, I was in a ball holding her crying,
but she was also like lethargic, and that scared me.
And we were about to go on a two week vacation.
I was about to leave her behind. It was awful.
Like with Max, I knew I could be here and
do whatever I needed to do for her, but there
were so many times when I was just like I'm
gonna have a breakdown and like my eyes were well up,

(34:49):
but I never cried, And I'm like, who is this
person I hated? I need to cry? Do you think
and that this kind of goes back to our parenting thing, right.
I feel like when you become a par aren't you
realize sometimes you just have to deal with things and
not dealing not in a bad way, Like you have
to put on that brave face sometimes and you know
that even though emotionally it could be taxing, it could

(35:11):
be draining, physically taxing and training, but you just do it.
And I think that's the mode you were. I think
so too. But here's what's crazy. I think raising a
cat or four of them is nothing correct, nothing like
raising a child. So many parents product to me this
week and said, it's way worth having a sick pet
than a sick kid because I can't communicate yea even
like and just even babies verse, even when they're infants,

(35:34):
like just the whole medical side of it is like
being a better just ruling things out and whatever. So
I was like, going, oh, so many times this week
I had felt like, you know, after a good cry,
you feel like you just cried, and I kept feeling
like I had cried, and I was like, but I
didn't cry, Like what's going on? And I felt like

(35:55):
you had the release. I felt like I had the
exhaustion of crying. It was bizarre. So going back to
the emails of things you changed once you became apparent,
this one is great for Melissa h because it's two parts.
It's what she changed and what her husband has changed.
So she said that she has gone out of her
way to be more polite to strangers and do things

(36:15):
like if you see a stranger dropping something like you
help them pick up their groceries or like little things
like that to prove to your children and lead by
example that it is okay too. First off I must
do is be polite to strangers the others to help
people out. But I love this, she said. Her husband
what he had to change as his kids started understanding

(36:35):
the world was he had to stop screaming in the car.
And this is a big one because people like road
rage is a real thing. But even if you don't
get out of your car and like throw I don't
know something in your back seat at the driver of
your angry at but just cursing people out in your
car and having kids that see that all the time,

(37:00):
that actually that makes them think that that type of
language and that type of reaction to menial things that
they didn't even see it, like they're like when something
like someone not making a left at your pace and
then losing your mind about it, that makes those overreactions
seem normal. I don't know that I can change myself.
That's the one thing. So I talked about my brother

(37:21):
justin earlier and how he sold my game Boy Micro
for fifty bucks even though now it's worth like five
hundred anyway, Um, and for the record, don't offer me
your game Boy Micro for five hundred bucks. I'm not
buying it for that. I'm looking at like the hundred tu.
But my my middle brother Michael, is the calmest, nicest person.

(37:43):
But when he gets behind the wheel, and it's not
like he's a crazy he's not ramming into people. He
just a switch turns on and he's like a maniac.
He's just cursing people out left and right. Oh, there's
an airplane outside. I thought there was a ship coming
down the street or something. So that email of things
that they changed when they became a parent was from
Melissa h Okay. So she changed being nice to be

(38:05):
not nicer, just overly being nice to fingers, like making
it a point to lead by example of like holding
doors open extra long for people and things like that,
and then her husband had to take a chillip hill
when he was driving. I have a story. I'm also
going to tell us on Twitch on Monday, So if
you're there on Monday, I just have to tell him
now in case I forget the world these herics. It
was the cutest thing ever. I A lot of this

(38:25):
conversation happened because I said, when I go to the chiropractor,
there is a daycare and all the kids are playing
in the playground. I have to wear masks, and I'm
always like, put my mask on before I get there
because I want to lead by example. So every time
I always try to listen to what the kids are
saying because they're hilarious. And there was one kid who
was up against the fence as I was leaving, and
he was there by himself and he's going, Hi, Hi, Hi,

(38:48):
and I was like hi, and go I like your
shirt and he goes, it's Thomas and it was Thomas,
and I was like, I know Thomas. The trainey goes
to and ran away and I was like that. And
we talked also in the Morning Show podcast about how
an interaction with the stranger can make your day. That moment,
I was like, that just actually made my day because

(39:08):
that cute little kid. I was just like, juju, I'm
going to do that for our hype trains on Twitch
from now on. We have three more emails that I
want to get too real quick about things that people
changed when they became a parent, the habits or the
characteristics or whatever parenting things that they wanted to make
sure didn't get passed down. Um. This one was actually
I think really important for not only setting an example

(39:29):
for your children, um, but for yourself. Lindsay emailed and
said she stopped using violent hyperbole, and for a second,
I was like, why what do you What do you mean?
So things like she said, I'm gonna go jump off
a bridge. Yeah, things like that. And I guess because
her I can't remember if it was her daughter or

(39:50):
her son, UH started parenting her and I would say
these like crazy suicidal things at school. And she realized,
even though in her mind was just hyperbole, like it's
a throwaway sentence, it sounds so crazy that when you
hear it coming from the mouth of the kid, you know, like,
what is wrong with you? No, don't say you're going

(40:11):
to jump off a bridge, or the one I used
to say all the time. Do you remember my saying
in New York, Carl, Actually not even just New York,
I said in Saddle all the time, I'm gonna light
this whole building on fire and burn the whole place down.
She would say this. I just pulled up Lindsay's email.
These are the other ones. If you don't shut up,
I'm going to stab you in the eye, shoot me now.
That just seems violent, and shoot me now. So I'm

(40:32):
thinking about I'll go f myself. Well that yeah, kill me. Yes.
I still say some of those things, but I think
being on the radio, I stopped saying a lot of
that because I don't think I've ever said on the
air the words I'm gonna kill myself. No, probably not,
because but I mean that was a thing we would

(40:53):
all say, right. It was like saying like, oh, I'm
just gonna kill myself then, right, And what a weird
thing to say, I know, And I I think it
got to a point in my adult life where I realized,
like the weight of those words, and that's not something
to joke about, even like jump off, like different things
like that. And the weird suicidal things that we said,
but it's true. And I remember there was a bit
on as the show once it was like, what things

(41:15):
you threaten your kids with that they don't know are fake?
And I'll never forget. A mom called in and she
was like, I filled my kids so many times. If
they don't stop talking in the backseat or something, I'm
gonna rip off their arm and shove it in their ear.
And for some reason that made me think a bit
of it all, like it's so ridiculous, You're not going
to do it. Why are we saying? Another one another
email about things that people changed about themselves once they

(41:38):
became parents. I thinks they wanted to lead by example.
This one's from Kerry, who said she has two step kids, UM,
and I think from the email they've been in her
life now for like six or seven years. She said,
I wanted to lead by example of finishing things that
I started instead of just saying that I was going
to get something done, I'd actually come through with it
because I wanted my kids to look to do that

(42:01):
as well. UM. And she said it's also important for
her and her husband to not fight in front of
the kids. And each other with respect. And well, also
I feel like kids should see what a real relationship
is also like to an extent, if you know how
to fight and argue responsibly, because and I think anyone
can think back to a fight their parents have had

(42:21):
where you're like, wow, I should not have seen that
or heard of those things being yelled back and forth.
And that's not to say those relationships aren't great. When
you're in a relationship, sometimes you just get heated, and
sometimes you say things you don't necessarily mean, and and
you know your most vicious fights will be with the
people that you love the most, unfortunately, But making sure

(42:43):
your kids know how to fight and know what's appropriate
in terms of the way they should be treated as well.
And I also think not even like relationships like husband
and wife, whatever it is, husband and wife, wife, your
siblings also like if if I'm complaining about my sister
to my kids, they're not going to treat each other respectively,

(43:06):
respective respectively, with respect, with respect, because they're seeing how
I treat my sister. And that's another thing, and it
just everything is lead by example, and it's also interesting, like, Okay,
let's say Carlbarry hypothetically 're in a situation. Actually, no,
I'm going to fast forward and then go back. So
let's say you have a daughter one day and somehow,

(43:30):
whether it's through a text message you you read over
her shoulder or something, you see that there's a boy
calling her stupid, like a boyfriend or something. Right, But
think about how many arguments adults get into where they
name call one another in front of children, with thus
making the child believe that it is okay to be
talked to like that. Well, I think that if someone

(43:52):
called me stupid, how would I respond? And I think
I hopefully she sees that at some point and where
I'm like, you don't talk to me like that, and
then she says, you don't talk to me like that, Chad,
go yourself. But thinking about how many kids are raised
in relationships where the parents, even if they're loving, great parents,

(44:13):
they get into arguments that escalate like that, and then
it becomes okay for your kid, Like your kid thinks
it's okay to talk to people and be spoken to
that way. You know, I don't, I don't know. This
is this is why they started um going back to
kind of what Lindsay said about things that you say
or whatever, and then the kid says, I'm at school.
So when I was in pre K, so you're like four,

(44:35):
my older sister was nineteen and there was this girl,
Victoria who would bullieve me at school all the time,
like push me, knocked me over, block me out of
the circle, just like whatever it was. And I would
come home and cry and be like, Victoria is this
Victoria did that? Like she's so mean to me. Let's
find this girl now. And my sister was like, will

(44:56):
you tell her if she doesn't stop, your sister's gonna
are we not recording? She said, you tell her if
you're If she doesn't stop, your sister is going to
come to school and beat her up. Okay, So I said,
I got to school and I was like, my sister
is gonna beat you up if you don't stop. So
then Victoria told Miss Northrop and Ms Northrop was like,

(45:18):
I had to call my mom. Was likely Marie is
threatening that her nineteen year old sister's gonna come beat
up a four year old. So they yeah, it's it's
less cute when that person is a grown adults. Now
if you're older. Sister was eight, so it would be
totally different. We had a Christmas party at my house.
My mom let me invite all my friends and we
did little Christma party, a little grab bag. We were

(45:39):
like four or five years old. You know what that
bitch did at my Christmas party? Why did Victoria come
to your party? If she was so you had to
invite everyone even back then. But back then you could
bring cupcakes to school. And I was thinking about this today,
how kids these days don't understand why you can't bring cupcakes.
There's no outside foodle out in school. Peanuts, peanuts? Who's
putting peanuts and cupcakes? And poison? Who's putting poison in

(46:02):
their own kids cupcakes? Anyway, this bitch at my Christmas
party at my house, We're all sitting in the little
circle about to play game, and my there was like
a thumb tack from decorations that my mom had. She
put it next to my hands. I put a thump,
like home alone, this kid. I love. I love Victorias.
I would love to. Can I call Jefferson Elementary School
and be like, can you give me the full names

(46:24):
of everyone who was who was in PreK? I want
to see where she is? Probably not, but I feel like,
from what you've told me about North Arlington, New Jersey,
are most of the people still there now? She moved
like shortly, I'd like she was gone. My friend Jennifer
was gone. Robert, my crush was gone. We're done with this.
I'm not gonna go through your whole kindergarten class here.

(46:45):
The last email, though, that I want to get to
is from Leney from Queens and he it's a long email.
I'm not gonna read everything in it, but there was
a lot of really good stuff in here. Um. He
said that growing up in a house where his parents
were immigrants, he rarely saw them because they worked so much,
and there was a language barrier. Because he grew up
here his parents did not UM. And I think this
happens with a lot of first generation people, like you're parents.

(47:10):
Usually the reason you emigrate generally is the situation where
you are probably wasn't that great, right, So when your
parents moved to a new country, their goal is to
give you a better life, right. They don't want you
to deal with the things they did there. So it
becomes all about school and finances and your work and
your promotions. And there's probably a disconnect with all parents

(47:35):
and like actually asking their kids how they're doing and
how they're feeling, as opposed to have like what happened
to school? You know? Um? And he talks about that.
He said one of because of that, one of his
things he does now with his daughter is he tries
to really ask her how her day is at school,
not just about the academic side of it, but like,
how are you feeling today? Did you have fun like things?

(47:57):
Did Derney Victoria stick you with the tech? She she
definitely goes by Vicky. Now, no offense anyone Vicky. I'm
just saying, here's a lot of Vickies that listen to
this point. I know. I'm just saying, now, maybe it
is one of them, could be. Um. And then I
love this because it also goes to what we've been
talking about about leading by example, even if you're not
a comfortable, if it's not something you've always done. Um.

(48:19):
He says that he's never been necessarily an extrovert, but
when he's he's tried ever since he had a daughter,
to network more and to have more conversations with people
in the groups that they're his family is in because
he wants his daughter to feel comfortable talking to people
and networking and and bettering herself that way, and now

(48:41):
it's second nature. He was able to break his own
mold and you know, kind of design yourself in the
light you want to be and then lead by example
for his daughter. So then, Anthony, what are you changing
if you have a daughter, a daughter specifically or just
specifically a daughter. Actually, I don't know if I changed

(49:01):
either both. Um. I think I could still do better
with my temper. It's not what it was when I
was like twenty two. Um, I could still do a
little better in controlling my emotions that way, but more so,
I need to be better at routine. That was just

(49:23):
going to say the same thing. And my my family
was never really like a routine family. And it's it's
hard when you own your own business and you don't
have like that nine to job type of thing. Right. Um,
but I can always get things done, Like hard work
has never been an issue for me. But getting into
a routine and doing the menial things I need to
do on time has been a huge barrier for me

(49:47):
in my whole life. And I don't want my kids
to end up with that same I'll call it a
defect that I have. I also think having kids will
force you into a routine, maybe because they have to.
They eventually get on a routine. That's true. And I
had when I was fostering cats, I was much better,
like waking up on time, making sure they ate. You know,
it's true because if I had to do it for myself, like, oh,

(50:07):
i'll eat later, It'll be fine. It's true, it really is.
And like not putting, like hitting snooze, like I don't
want my kid to see me hitting snooze. Like if
I'm yelling at they're asked to get up, I gotta
make sure I'm getting up. And what am I wearing?
Am I putting on my clean clothes? Am I actually
folding my laundry when I living in a pile? Like
things that I'm going to yell at my kids for
I think about all the time that I do now,
And I think about that in the sense of And
I said this. I was interviewed this week for the

(50:29):
Morning Brew and it will be out eventually, And I said,
how one of the things I started, by the way, yes,
I started doing to make my mornings better is the
night before, at the very least organizing the kitchen. And
this way when I wake up, when I come down
the steps, the first thing I see isn't chaos. And
I say I I always think back to my parents

(50:50):
who never left a single dirty dish in the sink.
Like nothing was ever left in the sink unless they
said to me, just go put your dish in the sink.
It was like if they had dish, it got washed
and dishwasher like nothing like, nothing left the sink. A
piece of laundry that ever, nothing ever went from it
went dryer, basket, drawer immediately folded, immediately out of the dryer.

(51:13):
Like what And I'm like, did you have more time
with your day? No? What is the problem. I'll tell
you why. Most likely. Okay, we've had the benefit and
the privilege of living on our own and our space
was entirely our own, right Like even though I lived

(51:33):
with some roommates and stuff in Jersey City and then Hoboken, Um,
I still had my own space. It was my room.
But even when I moved out here, I could let
things go be a little more lack of days ago
because no one else was going to add to that mess. Now,
if you're a parent and you've got three kids, and
all of your laundry is unorganized and in a pile

(51:56):
that gets out of hand so fast that you can
let it get there. So I think that's why it's
so different for your parents and what you grew up
with as opposed to as opposed to the way you've
lived the last couple of years when you're away. When
you're away, I'm like, I just I'm just gonna do
one day of just do whatever I want and not
have to clean up after myself. And that's more of

(52:17):
a respect, not because you're gonna yell at me for
I mean you might, but it's more of like a well,
I'm not gonna leave, Like even though sometimes things everywhere
because I live with another person, it's a respect thing.
But I'm like, you know what, even never about for
a day and then it's like, okay, have to clean.
I think when you have kids, it's probably there's so
much uncontrolled chaos that you if you have something you

(52:38):
can control, you do your best to do that. Okay,
so we if we ever want to happen, you hold on.
Your thing was routine and like snooze, not really snooze,
more of like truly routine. Was the first thing I
thought of, like, I want them to see me. Okay,
my mom. My mom wakes up every day and takes
our calls or answers her emails and and then goes
works out and does whatever. And then she takes care

(52:59):
of us and and does work. So let me this
is this could be a question for anyone and you
can email us hello at Carlon Braine Anthony dot com.
How do you simulate trying to live a better life,
to live by example? Right? Like like all these people
have been saying I changed because I wanted to be
a better example or a better guide for my my children.

(53:20):
If you don't have kids, how do you accelerate the
I want to be a better person part? How do
you get into better habits? Like why why can't you
car them? I'm saying, we are going to have to
hold each other accountable. Now I think, okay, that's fair.
I guess we could do that. We could try at least. Yes,
so starting Monday, we pretend like we have kids. Maybe

(53:41):
we can just can someone let us have a kid
for a week, thank you? That will pretend that if
you can't do anything bad in front of Erica, Max
John or anythin bad. You can't eat fast food in
front of them. That's not good every day. It's not
really available to them. So I don't think it's gonna
like change. We're pretending like they're real. Okay, won't figure
it out. Listen. We've been going on and on for

(54:02):
almost an hour today. This is like the longest podcast
we've done in a very long time. We got to
get to storage and to Costco, so we've got things
to do. Um, it is an adult weekend. I guess
we're gonna do some adult thing. We are leading by example.
We're doing what parents will do on a Friday night.
All right, Thank you so much for hanging out this.
Thank you to everyone. Whether you emailed us about listening
to all of the different things that we've put out

(54:22):
there into the digital space, Twitch YouTube podcast. Um, if
you emailed us about the parenting thing, thank you so much.
Next week what I'd love to have because we did.
We we hung out with parents today, right, What are
we gonna do with next kids? No, next week. If
you are in the dating world right now, you could
still be a parent and being the dating you could. Yeah,

(54:44):
if you're if you're single or an open relationship whatever. UM,
I want you to email us hello at Carla Marine
Anthony dot com with the biggest dilemma you're dealing with now.
It could be the fact that you can't meet anybody,
or there's someone that you're talking to and maybe there's
a disconnect or a barrier. You're dating dilemmas, regardless of

(55:05):
what they are, big, small, medium, email us hello at
Carla Marine Anthony dot com. Okay, the way you looked
at me, it seems like you're gonna email Carlin Murray. No. I, UM,
I have a theory about myself and dating that I
thought of this week that I will say for next week. Okay,
thank you so much for hanging out with us. Don't
forget subscribe to the Morning Show podcast. The link is

(55:29):
in the description of this podcast episode from day Friday,
just hit you know, show more. Scroll down you'll see
the Morning Show podcast. Because that podcast we can actually
make money off of. So we have been like we
get pennies and yeah, a couple of pennies listen, ain't
too bad? Not too bad? Oh, Penny's reminds me of
the Serial Killers because they always talking about if they
get like ten cents, if a commercial place. Well, I

(55:51):
was gonna tell you go listen to the serial Killers
podcast after you listen to our stuff. Yes, um, our
friends Andy and Scotty B, who worked for Elvis end
in the morning show. Scotty B is my friend. Andy
is not my friend. That's why you're not going to
be on. I told them I'm gonna be on. I'm
gonna be back in Jersey and June, I'm coming on
serial Killers and bowl Chat. Bowl Chat is the sister

(56:12):
podcast to Serial Killers. Do you want a fund? A fact?
I spent more Holidays with Scotty B than any other
non family member in my entire life because for a
couple of years in a row, we both worked holidays.
So Scotty be as Jewish, so he would offer to
work every Christmas and he would do like three shifts

(56:33):
in a row on Christmas because all of that was
double pay. Amazing. So and his I believe his wife
would take their daughters to her side of the family
because they're Christians. Now they celebrate Christmas together, but for
a while he wasn't, so we and I would offer
to work early because I could leave by like o'clock,
and I spent Christmas Thanksgiving and New Year's with Scotty

(56:55):
be like four years in a row. Crazy. But their podcast,
like I'm telling you, it kills me, and I hope
you can enjoy it even like not knowing them. So
give it a listen, report back to me, let me
know what you think. If you don't like them, I'll
tell them for you. It's okay, and Andy, if you
somehow listen to this, Andrew, I do love you. We've
said goodbye now for five minutes. See a later. Have

(57:16):
a great weekend.
