Life is very interesting right now? Okay, life is different,
Life is good. Life will be very busy very soon.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Okay, So does that mean some good things things are happening?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Yeah, you know exactly what you're doing here, Morgan. You
know what you're doing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have me to butter me up.
Yet you already going into the hard questions usually like
it's not hard questions.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Questions how's life? That is a softball question.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Okay, all right, Yeah, life is good. Thank you for
asking how's life for you?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It's good.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
We're talking about you right now, though you can't dodge that.
I don't think I didn't even know what was happening.
So you say some good things happening really soon. Does
that mean there's like things that have happened and we
have official answers and.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Stuff to things.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I don't know if we have official answers or we're
allowed to say official answers, but I do know that
somewhere between October and January, things will be different. Oh
that means you're in a good way, though, in a
great way.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
You say that, But that means you're leaving.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't know if I'm leaving.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Okay, okay, so you don't know if you're leaving, but
between October and January, something's going to change.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I would say, I'm not you're not leaving.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, but that's a good thing. Yeah, Well, I think
it's a good thing.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
That you're not leaving, but it's you were chasing your dream.
So I don't want to be like, well, that's a
great thing.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Because that's awesome. Now, I've failed.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I'm confused now exactly.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
We'll have to that's a that's a deep tease, as
we say in the industry. The payoff will happen on
the Bobby Bone Show, hosted by Bobby Bone's cost Amy
Brown Lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
We don't need to go on, right, That's that's what
that is. How's life is a dad?
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Life is a dad is great. They're getting older and
it's scaring the crap out of me. Yeah, oh yeah,
because like, like my son now is hitting an age
now where he's almost seven and he's starting to not
care as much like he cares, but like whether there'll
be a moment. Yesterday I sat next to on the
couch and he got up, went to the other side
of the couch and I went to them, and I
followed him over that that side of the couch and
went to the other side of the couch. And I
was like, what dude, He's like, just leave me alone, dad.
(02:55):
I was like, you still want to cuddle? He didn't
want to cuddle anymore. I was like, dang, but I
have two other kids. So I was like, all right, well, final,
go cut up with your sister. So then I had two.
I have both of the sisters around me. It was
really nice. Oh so, yeah, that was weird. But he's
into Star Wars now. I've been trying to get him
into Star Wars for a minute. Okay, he's went to
Disneyland in July and he could care less about Star Wars.
(03:16):
But now we have two lightsabers that we got there,
and so we'd let we fight every day. We have
lightsaber fights.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
It no longer cuddling, but we will fight with sabers.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yes, we'll fight with sabers. And he knows lines and
when he messes up, he's like, almost do this again,
all right? Take two?
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Edakin, Edakin, Oh, so you guys are acting out movies.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Ordering the scenes, and then we even have like choreography
with our lightsabers of our fight scenes and stuff. It's
actually really cool.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
We have this on video. Have you been recording it?
Speaker 3 (03:42):
I have, I have it. It's in my brain. I've
been watching it because it's so awesome, like immersing in
the moment and I'm like, oh my god, my son
is a really good actor.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Doesn't you need this memory? Like locked in for life?
You know he used to have like home videos.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Oh yeah, my dad used to do, like he would
rent the video camera. This is for older people. Back
in the day, you had to rent a video camera
from a guy. He would bring it to your house
and it was this massive camera, almost like a Hollywood
type camera. He'd bring it to your house because if
it's a VHS tape in it, and then he gives
you a tutorial on the camera and you rent it
for a day or a weekend or whatever.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
You eat it.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
It was too expensive to buy a video camera. You
had to rent it from somewhere. It was crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
See that was like your childhood.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Then you moved to my childhood where we had the
They were still big, but they were the compact like
everybody had one, like.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The JBC camcorder.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Yeah, and they weren't VHS, but they were the littler tapes. Yes,
still tapes, but it was a little and everybody had them.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
And so I have so many home videos from growing up.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yeah. Then the playback was you had to have that
one tape that was the size of a tape, but
in the middle you put that little tape inside of
it to put it in the VHS player.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yep, the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Yeah, okay, yeah, so yeah, you're the next version up
from my version. Okay, yeah, And we did have those
towards the end of like my childhood. But it was
like when that came out, I was like, whoa, you
could buy one and then like you get oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
See, but now with your phone, you have a home
video all the time, so of me making sure to
cap I know it makes sense to use a of
that for your memory and just to always have those experiences,
but like, all you have to do is capture one,
so you.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Just have one.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I need to get my wife to be like, hey,
next time we do it, can you record us doing it?
And she may have one recorded because I'm not paying
attention because I literally am just so much in the
moment because now I'm super emotional seeing him getting older
and him changing and becoming different. I'm like, I got
to really enjoy while he's the way he is right now.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
He's coming into his own. He really is becoming he's own,
little boy, little man.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
He is?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
How old is he?
Speaker 3 (05:27):
He's in first grade? So he turned seven in a
few months.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah, I know, that's wild.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I know, does time fly by as fast as everybody
says it does?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
When you're a parent.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah, I think ever since high school. When I got
out of high school, time got fast, but then it's
just gotten faster and faster and fat. Like even when
I go on a vacation now, I'm already in my
head being like, oh my god, I'm gonna remember the moment,
Like I'm already at the beginning we're having left yet
I'm like, I'm gonna I'm gonna stap my fingers and
we're gonna be driving home, or we're gonna be getting
back on the plane. It's gonna be over. And sure enough,
(05:58):
you're like, it's over, We're going back home. Now, what
the hell do you feel?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Like?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That's because we have more stuff to do and take
up our time in our days because right, like, if
you look at the process of people over time, I
don't feel like we have done anything differently for that
time to go faster.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
We just put more in our schedule.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, so it it goes faster and busier.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yeah, because you're right because back then, like in the nineties,
growing up, the days were so long because there wasn't
much to do, Like if your friends couldn't play then
you just sat at home watching TV or or hung
out with your siblings or whatever. Yeah, there wasn't like
a I got to answer emails, I gotta go to work,
I gotta go drive here, I got to pick this
person up, I have to go to the grocery store, da, DA,
there's less things. That actually makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
And like, as you get older, especially like right now,
time feels like it passed fast. But everybody says when
you have kids, time really passes fast and you have
multiple schedules on your what schedule.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And where the days were longer when you weren't doing anything.
Days felt longer because you weren't doing anything, and days
took forever to come to an end. Yeah, that's a
great point.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, I feel like that's why.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Maybe so maybe if like for a week, we don't
have anything on our schedules and it's just a blank canvas.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
A wonder what that would feel like.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, if that would feel like time is just passing
really slowly, or it's like no, this is still quickly
and that's just the course of how we evolve as
we get older.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah, Like when you're a kid, you think someone's older
and taller and you realize, oh, they were nineteen years
old and they were only five 't eleven. But because
of the perspective, yes, yeah, I think you may have
cracked the cut on time. Maybe you know, let's go,
let's get out of here.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Can't do an easy trivia, but I can have some
great theories exactly, totally.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
A lot of concepts you have there, not actual structured ideas,
but concepts.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Okay, I'm smart, let me live. You know what's funny?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I was thinking about this as we talked about like
getting older and stuff. Huh, you don't know something that
I've matured in. What's that is my drink choices?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Okay, yeah, that's I think that's another thing of evolving
in life. You go from like pop offs to like
actual nice cocktails.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So I used to have, like every time I go
to a bar and go anywhere, it's really like a
Tito's sprite.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
That was kind of my my drink was vodka sprite. Okay,
And now pretty much everywhere I go is it Cosmopolitan?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Oh you're fair, you got the pinky out and you're.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Drinking I carry Bradshash Wow.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
And then nice glass and Martin Martini you put alives
in it? Or no?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
No, it's always a little pink one.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So sometimes they put a little flour or okay, little umbrella,
just depends where you go. What they're like varnishes, but
there's no olives in the cosmos.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I would recommend. I don't know they have They probably
don't have them here, but I know for sure on
the West coast and in Hawaii, a laichi martini. Okay,
you know the little chi chi or leechi, depending on
how you say it.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Yeah, what is it?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
So?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
What does it taste like?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
It's just really it's like almost like a plum, but
it's super sweet, okay, and it is delicious. And then
they put the they put the light chi in there,
and then you can eat that when you're all done,
the laichi chi. And then I know the one that
is similar to it. I think it's called like a
rasp buttant or a ram buttant that.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Is like a pomegranate, like a little mini pomegranate.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Yeah, they're really small. They're like like maybe the size
of like a quarter and they're like yellowish white.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
And then the ones you may have seen because they're
at publics, I think it's called a rambutant. A rambutant.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Now I feel like you're just making a ram no
these right here?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, rambuten or rambutant does look a lot like light cheese. Yeah,
so yeah, there is them. Yeah, so in the inside
like that, but on the outside shell they look like
almost like a like a like a like a little
remember that little mind Sleeper game on. It's like kind
of like that. But they sell these at publics. You've
probably seen them, or now you'll see them because the
type of mind.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I don't think I've ever seen him before, but now
I will.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Yeah, they're using any of the berries. So they're similar
to a.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Leichi, but they're not are they hard or soft?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
They're super soft. They have a have a pit, so
there's a seed in the middle, but the actual outside
is very jelly white, is like the whole thing. Yeah. So,
like so you have the outside shell which has all
like the hairs on and everything, and then it's like
a reddish brown and then you split that pop it
up and the outside is like a gel like almost
like a jelly type fruit, but it's like super soft.
And then the inside there's a seed, but it's kind
(09:57):
of almost like a texture of maybe like a plumb
on the inside where like super soft. Yeah, but it's
all a one piece. It's really good. And they also
put them in like Bubba drinks. You can get light
chy your Bubba drinks and usually make them like it's
a little jelly of some sort. Really good.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
I do love a boba drink. When I first had
my first boba, though, the texture was weird.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It was like, what am I am? I feel like
I'm eating eggs.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Get a little tapioka balls, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Little like fish eggs or something.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, they have a little chewy and gummy and when
they get super cold they get hard. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
You know what's funny is that's that's like me like
as a vegetarian, just not having had a lot of
experience with things. That was like genuinely, when I first
saw bobas, I was like, why are people drinking fish eggs? That?
I thought it was terrible And it wasn't until somebody
maybe try like a chocolate I was like, this is
so good.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Why have I not been drinking?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I was like, oh, because they thought these were little
fish eggs at the bottom balls like pudding.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Right, it's like a putty tapioka yeah, similar to that.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Okay, Well, now that we're on that, did you have
a moment where you feel like you like really matured.
Maybe it's now like in your adult from being an
adult to being like a dad, did you have a
moment where you're like, oh, I'm truly a dad now.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Like a dad moment or just maturing in general, like
kind of like how my drink.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I was like, Oh, yeah, I've grown up. I'm not
drinking the same things anymore. It's a small thing, okay.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
In your day to day life where you're like, oh wow,
maybe it was a moment where you're like, I'm a
dad and I can't do this anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Yeah. I think the dad thing maybe be in the
first one. When he was born, my son and he
came out, I was like, oh shoot, like perspective on
everything is completely different now. I have a whole different
responsibility now and not responsible for this person, but I'm
also responsible for keeping myself alive because I don't. I
want to be there for this person for as long
as I possibly can be, especially to a point where
they can will remember me as an adult. I would
(11:40):
hope I'm there for everything. So I think that would
be a big moment. Another moment was maybe when we
bought our first house, I was like, whoa, Like, we
own a home and we're no longer renting, and who
oh my god, I don't think I ever could afford
a home.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
He had a mortgage.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
He had a mortgage, which is cheaper than rent, by
the way, But just the hardest part I learned about
buying a home is having the money down to buy
the home, because once you have the money down, the
payment on a mortgage is way cheaper than rent. Then
you're owning something, and for the most part, depending where
you live within the country, well.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And depending on how much you're able to put down,
right exactly, because that's where it really gets people too,
because you can put some down, but then the payment
months of months get is higher.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
The taxes are higher too, and then all the fees
and stuff. I think it's ten percent is the one
where you want it to be. It's where you avoid
fees and higher taxes. But then a lot of them
they do like the five percent. Maybe it's twenty percent.
I think it's twenty percent down to avoid everything, which
is a lot. It's even ten percents a lot, but
a lot of times they do like the two or
three or five first time buyers, which is great, but
then on the back end, you're spending a little more money.
(12:38):
But then you own a home, so you should putting
money towards something versus just you know, literally throwing it
in the air and get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Yeah, it's funny. I wish they would have taught us
about that stuff in school.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
They don't teach about financial economics or anything.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
There's nothing they teach you, you know.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I feel like school is truly only a thing to
get you ready for the workplace. Workforce. Think about the bells.
Oh yeah, like almost like like the bell rings you
gorings at lunch, You go to lunch, the bell rings,
Lunch is over, and you go back to work, and
you're learning a lot of like just like mundane some
of it. It's good to know it because knowledge is power.
You got to learn how to read and write and
math and all that. But once you get past the basics,
(13:12):
then it's all like you're taking tests. You're learning for
a standardized test and the school can get funding.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Well, there's a you can go down a really deep
rabbit hole on this. I remember reading into it. I
do not know where it came from and where it
lies because I can't of course place the video now,
but it was something of how the industrial revolution is
what changed and how we had to start going to
school because of it. There's this whole like theory of
history of and we just like never.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Woke up one day and been like, no, we probably
shouldn't do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It was more like we're just going to keep continuing
down that path to be this like workforce. Yeah, because
of that revolution that happened.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, we're all work for it. We're not really focused
on us as human beings and how we are, the
way we are and what we are, what we are,
and just enjoying even just enjoying planet Earth. Yeah, the
planet Earth is truly a gift in itself. Think about this.
In our galaxy. This is one of the very few
that actually has oxygen and water and all the things
that come together to make what we have, and we're
able here to we're here to supposed to experience it.
(14:10):
A lot of us never do. We don't because we're
in this workforce and that I didn't realize that makes
sense to an industrial revolution, right, it makes a lot
of sense.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah, Oh, I want to take a quick break, but
I want to dive into this market.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I want to take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Well we have to.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh so you want we have to? So you don't
want to then no, yeah, we said you want to
take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Though No, sorry, I mean we have to.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'm legally obligated right now to take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Hold on thoughts.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
All right, thanks, I already forgot it.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Okay, I hope you remember.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
It because you took that damn break and I forgot it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I had to. I've been legally contracted to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Okay, Well I'm not so I could have said no, no.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Breaks start, both of us are Hey, back to the workforce. No,
it was it was a really cool rabbit hole that
I went down that I never really thought about. But
it was just this entire process of like they basically created,
like the Industrial Revolution happened. They created systems to put
us in a workforce to continue that same process.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
And then it's like we never stopped.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
To be like, hey, let's reevaluate because we're not like
no longer in this situation. That was why the industrial
rued it, and instead we just continued and we've stayed
that way.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
So now we're just this place of like workforce.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And they also talked about the comparison to Europe, where
Europe's very different there's a lot of work life balance
and there's not this that happened. It was a really
crazy rabbit hole that I went down about that. I
think you would love it.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
I would love to see that is something you saw
on was like a was it a video series a documentary?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
It was on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
I think it was like this YouTube series and they
were just talking about this whole process. And I was
on it for a while because that's typically also where
all you're because it's probably labeled like a conspiracy theory
or whatever, just because it's a free thought, that's not
a norm.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
And so it was wild.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I'll see if I can find it to have you
watch it, because it was it was interesting. Changed my
whole perspective on schools and now I'm like that made
sense why schools were not being taught thing to like
live our lives, where being things that will help us
just in the workforce. No, continue and get jobs, because
that's your the whole point. You're a senior in high
school where you're gonna go to college. Okay, once you're
in college, what are you going to do with your life?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Exactly?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah, that's the whole question you get. It's not like, hey,
do you know how to manage your money? Do you
know how to make sure like you're going to be
able to survive in the life?
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
And it's also funny that you brought up It's not
really funnycase. I'm not laughing, No one's laughing, but it's
interesting that you brought up not laughing when you talked
about the comparison from here overseas, because even when you
look at our foods and I'm sure you've seen videos
of this online where our foods are even different from
what they put in it because of preservatives and stuff
like even something as simple as frosted flakes over there,
(16:45):
it's called something little bit different, but it has the
tiger on there and all that stuff, but the ingredients
of inside the cereal is completely different to where it's
healthier over there, and it's actually way worse for us
over here.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, you know, that's you know, it's funny you.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Say, it's a lot of different foods and drens.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
This has been popping up a lot on my timeline
lately is like I saw Jillian Michaels, you know who
that is.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
She was like Health, Big Fitness.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, she's on that one TV show like the had
to Lose Weight or whatever.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, And then there was like health experts that came
out and I've seen they've been talking to Congress. They're
talking about our foods and like what is in them?
And there there was even a congress woman who brought
a fruit loops box of cereal from the US and
from Canada, and Canada's literally.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Had no colors and ours had colors.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
There you go, and it was like, why are we
not eating and consuming the same what's happening?
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Yeah, well, why are they getting at that? And why
are we getting this?
Speaker 2 (17:35):
And then all the things that are banned here are
there that they're not banned here?
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Crazy? Took this long for us to realize that because
people have been traveling forever and people have the internest
around for a while, why has no one ever blown
this whistle?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think it's because for a long time we saw
it as a culture thing, right, Like you go to
these different places, you're like, oh, culturally this is they
do like farm to table Europeans do like farm to
table and then you come to America, it's like, oh,
you guys love like these processed foods. It's like truly
people come and they get that experience and then they
like it because they're getting the American experience.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
True, yeah, they just yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
And so I don't think until like we really started
to realize that people were getting sick and not feeling good,
like yeah, it's like long COVID right, like you're now
seeing the long term all dat.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It looks like yeah, because you couldn't ever tell that
five years in or whatever.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And also when did it start happening, because our food
hasn't always been that way?
Speaker 3 (18:23):
No, it hasn't. No, it it recently started, I think
with the lastly thirty years.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, like a couple decades and the whole like sugar.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
I really think a lot of when all the marketing
stuff started happening, the commercials of like make sure you
know you drink your milk or anything of that, where
they really started to like push us in one direction.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
It's really where that probably.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Took off a lease, even push cigarettes like hey, cigarettes
are good for you and it makes you really cool. Yeah,
and they were like everywhere and people are, yeah, I
gota smoked cigarettes. They're really cool. We my doctor smoking
cigarettes right now in my office.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Now it's like, don't do that because it's everything's in
industry right, everything is making people money.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Were you ever conscious enough, because it definitely was around
when you were born, know that when they would be
like smoking a non smoking section, Like you go to
a restaurant, they're like smoking or non smoking. You remember
that ever being asked from like a server or not server,
but the hostess.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I feel I got restaurants ever since I was young.
It was always non smoking at that point. But we
would go to like bowling alleys and stuff, and bowling
nowings wouldn't be.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Yeah yeah, but when you go to a restaurant like
Red Lobster, you get a red Lobster and they go, oh,
I'm mean in a party like uh seven smoking or
non smoking?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
You know what I do.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Now that you're saying that, it's like it's just like
young Morgan when it happened.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
But yes, yeah, And it's the weirdest thing is like
you're like, oh, it must be like in a completely
different area where it's like it's like closed off with
a door and a wall, and so it separates no
smoking and non smoking was literally just same restaurant. It's
just one side of the restaurant and one was the
other side of the restaurant. Travel travel. Yeah, by the way, yeah,
it's it's it's like it's like it's like a gas
or whatever it is, and it goes all over the
(19:49):
damn place. And then, by the way, the bathroom was
always by the smoking section, So if you had to
go to the bathroom, we'd walk into the smoking section.
You have to smoke all around you. And if you
were in that section that was next to the smoking section,
which then my mom would complain a lot. She's like, oh,
we could smell the smoke. I have three kids or
four kids. Oh I'm sorry, man, We'll move you over there.
But it was still over there too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Yeah, doesn't make any sounse. This is so true because
my mom would also complain.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
This, Yeah, h we're too close to it. Like the
only way to not be in a non smoking section
was to eat outside. That was it.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Well, And that's also funny you say that because when
I was a Buffalo Wild Wings waitress, I'd be like,
would you like Like they'd be like is there a
smoking I'm like, if you want to sit outside on
the patio, okay, okay, Like I even remembered that being
a thing. But then when I was working at Buffalo,
they banned it entirely at restaurants.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Is when I think that happened.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Okay, Yeah, it was weird. I was like, even as
a kid, I logically was like, but that doesn't make sense. Mom,
it's the same building. She's like, I know, I know it.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Whatever, it's not even just the same. It's the same.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Everything, same room, the same place. It's the same open
wide space. The only thing separating it was the bar,
But the bar was it was like, it just was
mind blowing.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Yeah. Well, and you know, hindsight's always twenty twenty right
when you're doing it, it's happening, and it's just the norm.
You don't know to question it or do anything differently
until one person does it again.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
It's all about research and data. People are like, well,
people are still going in, they're exposed to it, and
it's actually bad for them, so we can't do it anymore.
Even like seat belts, Well, people are dying on cars
because of There's a thing called physics and there's three
laws and they come into play and so a seatbelt
is needed.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Or then like the development of like debit credit cards
is like, no, we only use cash.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
That's a communist thing. We ain't doing that.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
So funny, it's it is funny to see like the
way we've evolved, but also just the more knowledge we have. Yeah,
it's scary.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
The more things you hear about. I don't want to
know anymore. I know, you get to a point where
you're like, I do you know?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yep. Some it's good, though someone's like this is this
is great, and so we're like, oh my god, it's good,
but I'm also scared.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
It just makes you feel very you have a lack
of control of situation because there's not a lot you
can do right, Like you can only eat so healthy,
but if it's in everything you're touching and nothing, like,
there's nothing you can do so so many levels. Okay,
we're done on our little tangent, will be right back,
or you take one more quick break that we have
to take.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Okay, we have to take its obligated. I know you've
you said it differently the time. Last one was like
I want to take a break and I was like, well,
I don't want.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
To take a break trying to be gently nice about it.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
You know, all.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Right, have you ever received a gift that brought you
pure happiness? And let me tell you this is why
this came out. Because my friends sent me an emotional
support pickle and emotional support pickle, and every time I
see it, I smile.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's a little sown pickle, like a little green sown pickle.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Okay, And it literally says, I'll pull it up so
you can see it. It says emotional support pickle. I
will always be around to let you know that you're
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Oh oh, I was envisioning actual pickle. Well, at some
point you have to eat that thing and get another
a little sown I was all saying some email pickle,
like seventy five times. I was like, well, there's a
good thing. I'm definitely following along. There's a pickle involved
in this.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Well, it's been my happiest gift I've gotten and reaching
you got one. One of my friends gifted my group
of my girlfriend's gifted them, gifted one to me. Gotcha, okay,
send me a little care package and that was in it.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
And I was like this is the cutest little thing ever.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Has me like try to destroy and rip it.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
No, it's it's up on the table, but Hazel does
try and whack it sometimes.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Pickle that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, she thinks it's one of her cat toys.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
But that's that's been made me really happy. So anything
recently you've gotten that just made you happy, And you're like,
I just never would have known I needed or wanted this.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
I don't really get a lot of gifts.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I would have been thinking a little bit if you
were answering.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
But it's okay, stupid fires. By the way, happy weekend.
It's Wednesday, and so I'm middled of workday.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I had a cancel meeting, which is fine to do this,
and then I got to go to the grocery after
this and get some stuff for my kids fall festival. Anyways,
what would I say is a gift that made me go,
oh my gosh, wow, I haven't got one of those
in a while, So I don't really know. I think
maybe or just.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Something that it could have been.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
You bought something for yourself and it made you so
much happier than you really anticipated.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I'm trying to bring some happiness.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
What's it like to be happy?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
And that was a depressing twist.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
You asked, and I gave you the answer.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
I was trying to make you happy.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You didn't have to ask happy questions when we're probably not.
I'm just kidding now. I'm just all like crazy to
see if I can somehow a gift to pop in
my head.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
That's okay, I can't think of what.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Oh my wife got me overalls.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Oh we did talk about you were wearing the overall.
You haven't warn them for a while.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
It's been it's been summer. It's been one hundred fing
degrees outside the studio.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's freaking antarctica.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
I still do other things when I leave here. I
have to go pick up the kids and do all
this stuff i'm outside. But she got me overalls. And
I've always wanted overall since I was a kid because
Criss Cross and they had that song, so I remember
just seeing the basic make you jump that one jump jump,
come on, make it jump jump.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I got a reference.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yes, because there's another one House of pain jump around,
and they're pissed off because they had that song first,
and they had to overshadow Criss Cross because Criss Cross.
I think this came out first, and they kind of
like screwed him, like, well, we have a song called
jump Around, said the same kind of thing almost but
different anyways, and the guy in House of Pain is
also he Lo.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
So I just actually know I really want to hear
the story. I just I had jammed my finger in
a door this morning, and I just actually like put
it on the chair and scrape to this.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
STA actually started trying not to cry.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh my gosh, you take another break so you can
cry more commercials continue. So yeah, it's ever clear. Ever
Clear is the rapper and House of Pain? He was
ever clear first he failed started House of Pain with
his friends that jump around, jump up, jump up and
get it down, yea jump. It came ever clear, and
(26:04):
you merely might know what it is like, what it's like,
and you really might know what it is like that
which you play music? I played for you? I know.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
House of Pain?
Speaker 2 (26:18):
But which Okay, House of Pain and Chris cross Cross.
Which one had the overalls?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
The Criss Cross because there were two kids that wore
the overalls, but they wore them backwards. I was like, man,
it's so cool, I want overall. So bad, and then
I wanted them for a long time. Then I just
kind of like, I'm never going to get them. It's fine,
is what it is. And then overalls were like hard
to find, you can't find anywhere, and then I forgot
about it. And my wife one day we were somewhere
and I was like, oh my god, overalls. I've always
wanted overalls. And she remembered that and she got me
a pair of overalls for Christmas. I think it was
(26:47):
this past year.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I feel like it was this past year because I
feel like this is a recent gift because.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I wore them in February for CRS or March whatever
it was. Yeah, and I was like, I was like,
oh my gosh, you got me overalls. I've always wanted overalls.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
You wore them for you wore them a few times,
like within span. But then it did get summer too, yeah, then.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
It got hot yeah yeah so yeah. And then so
that was one of those moments where I was like, man,
this is like something I wanted for my childhood. And
so it's been like twenty plus years, you know, wanting this,
and you remember almost thirty years.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Actually, geez, your wife made childhood scuba happy.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah. I remember I almost I think I was crying
a little bit. I was like, Wow, this is what
it feels like to be happy. This is so cool.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
No, listen, Scuba, let me tell you something. That childhood
side of you that like has stuff in there.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
Like I was on a on a therapy call and
I like basically I had said something. She goes repeat
that and she's like, how old do you feel right now?
And I was like six and it just came out
of my mouth like I wasn't even thinking yeah, And
she was like, yeah, this childhood morgan something happened there.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, you should probably dive into that. And I'm like
freak or she yeah, or she been what's happening right now?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yeah? And that was probably like for you that moment
where like the whatever age you were like when you
wanted of.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Nineteen ninety seven opening it up and not being there,
but then this time in this alternate universe, it was like,
oh my god, and.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
It was that childhood version of you that's now healed
because you got it exactly. Is that crazy, actual real concept,
Like there's a childhood version of you that was like
that really hurt you.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
I finally checked the box because like.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That, when people talk about trauma, it could be so
many different things. It doesn't have to be like she
pointed out to me, She's like, you could have been
left with your grandparents for a weekend and it really
made you sad, and like that can be something you
hold on to for decades. So for you, the deck,
like you could been holding onto for decades at that Christmas,
you didn't get those overalls.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I know it's been buried, and I just buried it
because we bury our emotions.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Yeah, and you were never able to get a pair.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
And now all of a sudden, like now that childhood
version of scuba, whether you were six, seven, eight, nine ten,
however old.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Was now healed thirteen fourteen, fifteen sixteen, I could keep going.
I'm not gonnall.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Okay, anyway, I think it's one hundred now said were
good if they could see your face. You guys a
(29:10):
lust Fox Council Hunter two.
Speaker 1 (29:11):

then keeps naming names.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
I'm like, I don't care, there's nobody that care, Derek,
and he'll just like keep it's a thing.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Anyways, what about Elizabeth?
Speaker 1 (29:24):

Speaker 3 (29:26):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
As I start to you know, date again, get me
what what do you think is a great first day?
Because I feel like my great idea of a first
date has kind of changed.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
What was your great idea of a first daid?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Well before, I'd.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Always to like, go grab a drink and you get
to know each other for a little bit whatever. But
now I think it's either you should go on a
walk because no obligation.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
That could be short, that could be long, and we
had to buy anything. There's no certain things. It's like
the perfect first date.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I would say, you should say, if we were to
go to church on Sunday, which one would you pick?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:01):
No, no, no. The first question I'm asking before we
even get to the day is what is yours? How
attached to it are you?
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Or do you go on a Saturday for Sabbath? How
many candles do you light around Christmas time? Do you
like candles that already put up a Christmas tree?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You want to know something really funny?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Huh. I'm not Catholic, by the way, so we can't mix.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
I'm not like truly ready to start talking about like

I just responded, I said, you're about six months too
late because I just had my heartbroken by.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
A Jewish man. I don't need that lesson.
Speaker 3 (30:53):

you've seen the trailer. It's the mom who's like, you're
never marrying my son or whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
I mean, I'm not kidding me. It literally looks like
my life.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
What's that one with Jennifer Lopez? Similar kind of script
where it's like, you're never marrying my sollar, you're not
good enough for my son.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Isn't that monster in law?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Monster la?
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yea?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
I think that's that one.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Yeah, that's a great Mecanic Yes, and.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Yeah the mother is like you're not good enough. Yes,
same kind of same exact script, but just different.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Just know about religious not religion.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Yeah, that was about money.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, just so happens to be one of my celebrity
people that I look like.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
She's a podcaster and he's Jewish.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Exactly, and it looks like your ex for real.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
That's crazy anyways.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Oh wow, okay, yes.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Well I'm perfect idea for our first aid.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
I think the walking around is great because my third
day with my wife was walking around San Francisco. We
have one of those ones where we met about my place.
She parked in my garage wasn't an innuendo for anything,
or parked in her garage, that'd be an innuendo. But
we just walked around. We just walked around. We just
literally parked the car and we walked all around San Cisco.
And I didn't have a lot of money, so I
we just kind of walked around, went to like maybe
(33:04):
two We got ice cream at one with spot, we
got a snack somewhere, and then we ended up at
a bar and had a couple of drinks and then
I parked my car in a garage.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
At least you're married now, so's But I.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Think the walking around is a great one because again,
again you're not tied to anything, and it gets too weird.
You can just start f and.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Running totally be like, you know, this has been great exactly, squirrel,
and you can't have any of those scenarios where like
I was trying like Venmo or Vimo request you and
be like pay me for that work.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Doesn't it work out or whatever?
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Out? Yeah, you know, that's a great I think the
walking around is a great one, Like go somewhere downtown,
meet and just walk around downtown and just see where
you end up.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
And it's a little bit more personable too, like you're
standing next to somebody trying to actually talk to them.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
You're walking, yeah, walking and talking. Yeah. I think it's great.
And you get to go like where would you want
to go, Like I want to score over here and
grab some quick snack or something, you know.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
And then it can evolve to something else exactly.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Yeah, then you can park his car in his driveway,
but eventually you're driving a horse.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Ever does anymore anyone knows? And I have to sit
here talking about Netflix.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
Maybe that's not my life exactly. Don't ask me where
they can find me. I don't care where they can
find me.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Okay, well you can go listen to my new podcast
take this personally.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
I take my take, my take this personally.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Okay, you know, actually we should I both use it
because I have a childhood trauma like specialist therapist on
there talking about Okay, childhood trauma and how it impacts
you in adulthood, also how parents can be better like
parents and helping their kids to not hopefully grow up and.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Experience some of the things that like maybe we've experienced.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
That's a good one. Yeah, you're hitting two good buttons there. Okay, yeah,
I didn't law how does there hit chi good buttons there?
Speaker 1 (34:41):
I know it was just a reference to buttons.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
And then we were talking about the inn window with
the garage.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
You get your mind out of the gutter? Mine never was?
Speaker 1 (34:47):
You already put me there?
Speaker 3 (34:48):

Life is very interesting right now? Okay, life is different,
Life is good. Life will be very busy very soon.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Okay, So does that mean some good things things are happening?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Yeah, you know exactly what you're doing here, Morgan. You
know what you're doing.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Huh Yeah, I know how to ask some questions.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have me to butter me up.
Yet you already going into the hard questions usually like
it's not hard questions.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Questions how's life? That is a softball question.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Okay, all right, Yeah, life is good. Thank you for
asking how's life for you?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It's good.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
We're talking about you right now, though you can't dodge that.
I don't think I didn't even know what was happening.
So you say some good things happening really soon. Does
that mean there's like things that have happened and we
have official answers and.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Stuff to things.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I don't know if we have official answers or we're
allowed to say official answers, but I do know that
somewhere between October and January, things will be different. Oh
that means you're in a good way, though, in a
great way.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
You say that, But that means you're leaving.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't know if I'm leaving.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Okay, okay, so you don't know if you're leaving, but
between October and January, something's going to change.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I would say, I'm not you're not leaving.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, but that's a good thing. Yeah, Well, I think
it's a good thing.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
That you're not leaving, but it's you were chasing your dream.
So I don't want to be like, well, that's a
great thing.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Because that's awesome. Now, I've failed.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I'm confused now exactly.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
We'll have to that's a that's a deep tease, as
we say in the industry. The payoff will happen on
the Bobby Bone Show, hosted by Bobby Bone's cost Amy
Brown Lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
We don't need to go on, right, That's that's what
that is. How's life is a dad?
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Life is a dad is great. They're getting older and
it's scaring the crap out of me. Yeah, oh yeah,
because like, like my son now is hitting an age
now where he's almost seven and he's starting to not
care as much like he cares, but like whether there'll
be a moment. Yesterday I sat next to on the
couch and he got up, went to the other side
of the couch and I went to them, and I
followed him over that that side of the couch and
went to the other side of the couch. And I
was like, what dude, He's like, just leave me alone, dad.
(02:55):
I was like, you still want to cuddle? He didn't
want to cuddle anymore. I was like, dang, but I
have two other kids. So I was like, all right, well, final,
go cut up with your sister. So then I had two.
I have both of the sisters around me. It was
really nice. Oh so, yeah, that was weird. But he's
into Star Wars now. I've been trying to get him
into Star Wars for a minute. Okay, he's went to
Disneyland in July and he could care less about Star Wars.
(03:16):
But now we have two lightsabers that we got there,
and so we'd let we fight every day. We have
lightsaber fights.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
It no longer cuddling, but we will fight with sabers.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yes, we'll fight with sabers. And he knows lines and
when he messes up, he's like, almost do this again,
all right? Take two?
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Edakin, Edakin, Oh, so you guys are acting out movies.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Ordering the scenes, and then we even have like choreography
with our lightsabers of our fight scenes and stuff. It's
actually really cool.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
We have this on video. Have you been recording it?
Speaker 3 (03:42):
I have, I have it. It's in my brain. I've
been watching it because it's so awesome, like immersing in
the moment and I'm like, oh my god, my son
is a really good actor.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Doesn't you need this memory? Like locked in for life?
You know he used to have like home videos.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Oh yeah, my dad used to do, like he would
rent the video camera. This is for older people. Back
in the day, you had to rent a video camera
from a guy. He would bring it to your house
and it was this massive camera, almost like a Hollywood
type camera. He'd bring it to your house because if
it's a VHS tape in it, and then he gives
you a tutorial on the camera and you rent it
for a day or a weekend or whatever.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
You eat it.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
It was too expensive to buy a video camera. You
had to rent it from somewhere. It was crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
See that was like your childhood.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Then you moved to my childhood where we had the
They were still big, but they were the compact like
everybody had one, like.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The JBC camcorder.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Yeah, and they weren't VHS, but they were the littler tapes. Yes,
still tapes, but it was a little and everybody had them.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
And so I have so many home videos from growing up.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yeah. Then the playback was you had to have that
one tape that was the size of a tape, but
in the middle you put that little tape inside of
it to put it in the VHS player.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yep, the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Yeah, okay, yeah, so yeah, you're the next version up
from my version. Okay, yeah, And we did have those
towards the end of like my childhood. But it was
like when that came out, I was like, whoa, you
could buy one and then like you get oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
See, but now with your phone, you have a home
video all the time, so of me making sure to
cap I know it makes sense to use a of
that for your memory and just to always have those experiences,
but like, all you have to do is capture one,
so you.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Just have one.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I need to get my wife to be like, hey,
next time we do it, can you record us doing it?
And she may have one recorded because I'm not paying
attention because I literally am just so much in the
moment because now I'm super emotional seeing him getting older
and him changing and becoming different. I'm like, I got
to really enjoy while he's the way he is right now.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
He's coming into his own. He really is becoming he's own,
little boy, little man.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
He is?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
How old is he?
Speaker 3 (05:27):
He's in first grade? So he turned seven in a
few months.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah, I know, that's wild.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I know, does time fly by as fast as everybody
says it does?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
When you're a parent.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah, I think ever since high school. When I got
out of high school, time got fast, but then it's
just gotten faster and faster and fat. Like even when
I go on a vacation now, I'm already in my
head being like, oh my god, I'm gonna remember the moment,
Like I'm already at the beginning we're having left yet
I'm like, I'm gonna I'm gonna stap my fingers and
we're gonna be driving home, or we're gonna be getting
back on the plane. It's gonna be over. And sure enough,
(05:58):
you're like, it's over, We're going back home. Now, what
the hell do you feel?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Like?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That's because we have more stuff to do and take
up our time in our days because right, like, if
you look at the process of people over time, I
don't feel like we have done anything differently for that
time to go faster.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
We just put more in our schedule.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, so it it goes faster and busier.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yeah, because you're right because back then, like in the nineties,
growing up, the days were so long because there wasn't
much to do, Like if your friends couldn't play then
you just sat at home watching TV or or hung
out with your siblings or whatever. Yeah, there wasn't like
a I got to answer emails, I gotta go to work,
I gotta go drive here, I got to pick this
person up, I have to go to the grocery store, da, DA,
there's less things. That actually makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
And like, as you get older, especially like right now,
time feels like it passed fast. But everybody says when
you have kids, time really passes fast and you have
multiple schedules on your what schedule.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
And where the days were longer when you weren't doing anything.
Days felt longer because you weren't doing anything, and days
took forever to come to an end. Yeah, that's a
great point.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, I feel like that's why.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Maybe so maybe if like for a week, we don't
have anything on our schedules and it's just a blank canvas.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
A wonder what that would feel like.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, if that would feel like time is just passing
really slowly, or it's like no, this is still quickly
and that's just the course of how we evolve as
we get older.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah, Like when you're a kid, you think someone's older
and taller and you realize, oh, they were nineteen years
old and they were only five 't eleven. But because
of the perspective, yes, yeah, I think you may have
cracked the cut on time. Maybe you know, let's go,
let's get out of here.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Can't do an easy trivia, but I can have some
great theories exactly, totally.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
A lot of concepts you have there, not actual structured ideas,
but concepts.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Okay, I'm smart, let me live. You know what's funny?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I was thinking about this as we talked about like
getting older and stuff. Huh, you don't know something that
I've matured in. What's that is my drink choices?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Okay, yeah, that's I think that's another thing of evolving
in life. You go from like pop offs to like
actual nice cocktails.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So I used to have, like every time I go
to a bar and go anywhere, it's really like a
Tito's sprite.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
That was kind of my my drink was vodka sprite. Okay,
And now pretty much everywhere I go is it Cosmopolitan?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Oh you're fair, you got the pinky out and you're.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Drinking I carry Bradshash Wow.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
And then nice glass and Martin Martini you put alives
in it? Or no?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
No, it's always a little pink one.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So sometimes they put a little flour or okay, little umbrella,
just depends where you go. What they're like varnishes, but
there's no olives in the cosmos.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I would recommend. I don't know they have They probably
don't have them here, but I know for sure on
the West coast and in Hawaii, a laichi martini. Okay,
you know the little chi chi or leechi, depending on
how you say it.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Yeah, what is it?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
So?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
What does it taste like?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
It's just really it's like almost like a plum, but
it's super sweet, okay, and it is delicious. And then
they put the they put the light chi in there,
and then you can eat that when you're all done,
the laichi chi. And then I know the one that
is similar to it. I think it's called like a
rasp buttant or a ram buttant that.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Is like a pomegranate, like a little mini pomegranate.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Yeah, they're really small. They're like like maybe the size
of like a quarter and they're like yellowish white.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
And then the ones you may have seen because they're
at publics, I think it's called a rambutant. A rambutant.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Now I feel like you're just making a ram no
these right here?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, rambuten or rambutant does look a lot like light cheese. Yeah,
so yeah, there is them. Yeah, so in the inside
like that, but on the outside shell they look like
almost like a like a like a like a little
remember that little mind Sleeper game on. It's like kind
of like that. But they sell these at publics. You've
probably seen them, or now you'll see them because the
type of mind.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I don't think I've ever seen him before, but now
I will.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Yeah, they're using any of the berries. So they're similar
to a.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Leichi, but they're not are they hard or soft?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
They're super soft. They have a have a pit, so
there's a seed in the middle, but the actual outside
is very jelly white, is like the whole thing. Yeah. So,
like so you have the outside shell which has all
like the hairs on and everything, and then it's like
a reddish brown and then you split that pop it
up and the outside is like a gel like almost
like a jelly type fruit, but it's like super soft.
And then the inside there's a seed, but it's kind
(09:57):
of almost like a texture of maybe like a plumb
on the inside where like super soft. Yeah, but it's
all a one piece. It's really good. And they also
put them in like Bubba drinks. You can get light
chy your Bubba drinks and usually make them like it's
a little jelly of some sort. Really good.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
I do love a boba drink. When I first had
my first boba, though, the texture was weird.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It was like, what am I am? I feel like
I'm eating eggs.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Get a little tapioka balls, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Little like fish eggs or something.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, they have a little chewy and gummy and when
they get super cold they get hard. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
You know what's funny is that's that's like me like
as a vegetarian, just not having had a lot of
experience with things. That was like genuinely, when I first
saw bobas, I was like, why are people drinking fish eggs? That?
I thought it was terrible And it wasn't until somebody
maybe try like a chocolate I was like, this is
so good.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Why have I not been drinking?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I was like, oh, because they thought these were little
fish eggs at the bottom balls like pudding.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Right, it's like a putty tapioka yeah, similar to that.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Okay, Well, now that we're on that, did you have
a moment where you feel like you like really matured.
Maybe it's now like in your adult from being an
adult to being like a dad, did you have a
moment where you're like, oh, I'm truly a dad now.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Like a dad moment or just maturing in general, like
kind of like how my drink.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I was like, Oh, yeah, I've grown up. I'm not
drinking the same things anymore. It's a small thing, okay.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
In your day to day life where you're like, oh wow,
maybe it was a moment where you're like, I'm a
dad and I can't do this anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Yeah. I think the dad thing maybe be in the
first one. When he was born, my son and he
came out, I was like, oh shoot, like perspective on
everything is completely different now. I have a whole different
responsibility now and not responsible for this person, but I'm
also responsible for keeping myself alive because I don't. I
want to be there for this person for as long
as I possibly can be, especially to a point where
they can will remember me as an adult. I would
(11:40):
hope I'm there for everything. So I think that would
be a big moment. Another moment was maybe when we
bought our first house, I was like, whoa, Like, we
own a home and we're no longer renting, and who
oh my god, I don't think I ever could afford
a home.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
He had a mortgage.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
He had a mortgage, which is cheaper than rent, by
the way, But just the hardest part I learned about
buying a home is having the money down to buy
the home, because once you have the money down, the
payment on a mortgage is way cheaper than rent. Then
you're owning something, and for the most part, depending where
you live within the country, well.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And depending on how much you're able to put down,
right exactly, because that's where it really gets people too,
because you can put some down, but then the payment
months of months get is higher.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
The taxes are higher too, and then all the fees
and stuff. I think it's ten percent is the one
where you want it to be. It's where you avoid
fees and higher taxes. But then a lot of them
they do like the five percent. Maybe it's twenty percent.
I think it's twenty percent down to avoid everything, which
is a lot. It's even ten percents a lot, but
a lot of times they do like the two or
three or five first time buyers, which is great, but
then on the back end, you're spending a little more money.
(12:38):
But then you own a home, so you should putting
money towards something versus just you know, literally throwing it
in the air and get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Yeah, it's funny. I wish they would have taught us
about that stuff in school.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
They don't teach about financial economics or anything.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
There's nothing they teach you, you know.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I feel like school is truly only a thing to
get you ready for the workplace. Workforce. Think about the bells.
Oh yeah, like almost like like the bell rings you
gorings at lunch, You go to lunch, the bell rings,
Lunch is over, and you go back to work, and
you're learning a lot of like just like mundane some
of it. It's good to know it because knowledge is power.
You got to learn how to read and write and
math and all that. But once you get past the basics,
(13:12):
then it's all like you're taking tests. You're learning for
a standardized test and the school can get funding.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Well, there's a you can go down a really deep
rabbit hole on this. I remember reading into it. I
do not know where it came from and where it
lies because I can't of course place the video now,
but it was something of how the industrial revolution is
what changed and how we had to start going to
school because of it. There's this whole like theory of
history of and we just like never.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Woke up one day and been like, no, we probably
shouldn't do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It was more like we're just going to keep continuing
down that path to be this like workforce. Yeah, because
of that revolution that happened.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, we're all work for it. We're not really focused
on us as human beings and how we are, the
way we are and what we are, what we are,
and just enjoying even just enjoying planet Earth. Yeah, the
planet Earth is truly a gift in itself. Think about this.
In our galaxy. This is one of the very few
that actually has oxygen and water and all the things
that come together to make what we have, and we're
able here to we're here to supposed to experience it.
(14:10):
A lot of us never do. We don't because we're
in this workforce and that I didn't realize that makes
sense to an industrial revolution, right, it makes a lot
of sense.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah, Oh, I want to take a quick break, but
I want to dive into this market.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I want to take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Well we have to.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh so you want we have to? So you don't
want to then no, yeah, we said you want to
take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Though No, sorry, I mean we have to.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'm legally obligated right now to take a quick break.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Hold on thoughts.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
All right, thanks, I already forgot it.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Okay, I hope you remember.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
It because you took that damn break and I forgot it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I had to. I've been legally contracted to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Okay, Well I'm not so I could have said no, no.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Breaks start, both of us are Hey, back to the workforce. No,
it was it was a really cool rabbit hole that
I went down that I never really thought about. But
it was just this entire process of like they basically created,
like the Industrial Revolution happened. They created systems to put
us in a workforce to continue that same process.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
And then it's like we never stopped.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
To be like, hey, let's reevaluate because we're not like
no longer in this situation. That was why the industrial
rued it, and instead we just continued and we've stayed
that way.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
So now we're just this place of like workforce.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And they also talked about the comparison to Europe, where
Europe's very different there's a lot of work life balance
and there's not this that happened. It was a really
crazy rabbit hole that I went down about that. I
think you would love it.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
I would love to see that is something you saw
on was like a was it a video series a documentary?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
It was on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
I think it was like this YouTube series and they
were just talking about this whole process. And I was
on it for a while because that's typically also where
all you're because it's probably labeled like a conspiracy theory
or whatever, just because it's a free thought, that's not
a norm.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
And so it was wild.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I'll see if I can find it to have you
watch it, because it was it was interesting. Changed my
whole perspective on schools and now I'm like that made
sense why schools were not being taught thing to like
live our lives, where being things that will help us
just in the workforce. No, continue and get jobs, because
that's your the whole point. You're a senior in high
school where you're gonna go to college. Okay, once you're
in college, what are you going to do with your life?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Exactly?
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah, that's the whole question you get. It's not like, hey,
do you know how to manage your money? Do you
know how to make sure like you're going to be
able to survive in the life?
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
And it's also funny that you brought up It's not
really funnycase. I'm not laughing, No one's laughing, but it's
interesting that you brought up not laughing when you talked
about the comparison from here overseas, because even when you
look at our foods and I'm sure you've seen videos
of this online where our foods are even different from
what they put in it because of preservatives and stuff
like even something as simple as frosted flakes over there,
(16:45):
it's called something little bit different, but it has the
tiger on there and all that stuff, but the ingredients
of inside the cereal is completely different to where it's
healthier over there, and it's actually way worse for us
over here.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, you know, that's you know, it's funny you.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Say, it's a lot of different foods and drens.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
This has been popping up a lot on my timeline
lately is like I saw Jillian Michaels, you know who
that is.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
She was like Health, Big Fitness.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, she's on that one TV show like the had
to Lose Weight or whatever.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, And then there was like health experts that came
out and I've seen they've been talking to Congress. They're
talking about our foods and like what is in them?
And there there was even a congress woman who brought
a fruit loops box of cereal from the US and
from Canada, and Canada's literally.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Had no colors and ours had colors.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
There you go, and it was like, why are we
not eating and consuming the same what's happening?
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Yeah, well, why are they getting at that? And why
are we getting this?
Speaker 2 (17:35):
And then all the things that are banned here are
there that they're not banned here?
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Crazy? Took this long for us to realize that because
people have been traveling forever and people have the internest
around for a while, why has no one ever blown
this whistle?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think it's because for a long time we saw
it as a culture thing, right, Like you go to
these different places, you're like, oh, culturally this is they
do like farm to table Europeans do like farm to
table and then you come to America, it's like, oh,
you guys love like these processed foods. It's like truly
people come and they get that experience and then they
like it because they're getting the American experience.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
True, yeah, they just yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
And so I don't think until like we really started
to realize that people were getting sick and not feeling good,
like yeah, it's like long COVID right, like you're now
seeing the long term all dat.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It looks like yeah, because you couldn't ever tell that
five years in or whatever.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And also when did it start happening, because our food
hasn't always been that way?
Speaker 3 (18:23):
No, it hasn't. No, it it recently started, I think
with the lastly thirty years.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, like a couple decades and the whole like sugar.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
I really think a lot of when all the marketing
stuff started happening, the commercials of like make sure you
know you drink your milk or anything of that, where
they really started to like push us in one direction.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
It's really where that probably.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Took off a lease, even push cigarettes like hey, cigarettes
are good for you and it makes you really cool. Yeah,
and they were like everywhere and people are, yeah, I
gota smoked cigarettes. They're really cool. We my doctor smoking
cigarettes right now in my office.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Now it's like, don't do that because it's everything's in
industry right, everything is making people money.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Were you ever conscious enough, because it definitely was around
when you were born, know that when they would be
like smoking a non smoking section, Like you go to
a restaurant, they're like smoking or non smoking. You remember
that ever being asked from like a server or not server,
but the hostess.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I feel I got restaurants ever since I was young.
It was always non smoking at that point. But we
would go to like bowling alleys and stuff, and bowling
nowings wouldn't be.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Yeah yeah, but when you go to a restaurant like
Red Lobster, you get a red Lobster and they go, oh,
I'm mean in a party like uh seven smoking or
non smoking?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
You know what I do.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Now that you're saying that, it's like it's just like
young Morgan when it happened.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
But yes, yeah, And it's the weirdest thing is like
you're like, oh, it must be like in a completely
different area where it's like it's like closed off with
a door and a wall, and so it separates no
smoking and non smoking was literally just same restaurant. It's
just one side of the restaurant and one was the
other side of the restaurant. Travel travel. Yeah, by the way, yeah,
it's it's it's like it's like it's like a gas
or whatever it is, and it goes all over the
(19:49):
damn place. And then, by the way, the bathroom was
always by the smoking section, So if you had to
go to the bathroom, we'd walk into the smoking section.
You have to smoke all around you. And if you
were in that section that was next to the smoking section,
which then my mom would complain a lot. She's like, oh,
we could smell the smoke. I have three kids or
four kids. Oh I'm sorry, man, We'll move you over there.
But it was still over there too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Yeah, doesn't make any sounse. This is so true because
my mom would also complain.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
This, Yeah, h we're too close to it. Like the
only way to not be in a non smoking section
was to eat outside. That was it.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Well, And that's also funny you say that because when
I was a Buffalo Wild Wings waitress, I'd be like,
would you like Like they'd be like is there a
smoking I'm like, if you want to sit outside on
the patio, okay, okay, Like I even remembered that being
a thing. But then when I was working at Buffalo,
they banned it entirely at restaurants.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Is when I think that happened.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Okay, Yeah, it was weird. I was like, even as
a kid, I logically was like, but that doesn't make sense. Mom,
it's the same building. She's like, I know, I know it.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Whatever, it's not even just the same. It's the same.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Everything, same room, the same place. It's the same open
wide space. The only thing separating it was the bar,
But the bar was it was like, it just was
mind blowing.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Yeah. Well, and you know, hindsight's always twenty twenty right
when you're doing it, it's happening, and it's just the norm.
You don't know to question it or do anything differently
until one person does it again.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
It's all about research and data. People are like, well,
people are still going in, they're exposed to it, and
it's actually bad for them, so we can't do it anymore.
Even like seat belts, Well, people are dying on cars
because of There's a thing called physics and there's three
laws and they come into play and so a seatbelt
is needed.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Or then like the development of like debit credit cards
is like, no, we only use cash.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
That's a communist thing. We ain't doing that.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
So funny, it's it is funny to see like the
way we've evolved, but also just the more knowledge we have. Yeah,
it's scary.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
The more things you hear about. I don't want to
know anymore. I know, you get to a point where
you're like, I do you know?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yep. Some it's good, though someone's like this is this
is great, and so we're like, oh my god, it's good,
but I'm also scared.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
It just makes you feel very you have a lack
of control of situation because there's not a lot you
can do right, Like you can only eat so healthy,
but if it's in everything you're touching and nothing, like,
there's nothing you can do so so many levels. Okay,
we're done on our little tangent, will be right back,
or you take one more quick break that we have
to take.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Okay, we have to take its obligated. I know you've
you said it differently the time. Last one was like
I want to take a break and I was like, well,
I don't want.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
To take a break trying to be gently nice about it.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
You know, all.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Right, have you ever received a gift that brought you
pure happiness? And let me tell you this is why
this came out. Because my friends sent me an emotional
support pickle and emotional support pickle, and every time I
see it, I smile.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's a little sown pickle, like a little green sown pickle.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Okay, And it literally says, I'll pull it up so
you can see it. It says emotional support pickle. I
will always be around to let you know that you're
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Oh oh, I was envisioning actual pickle. Well, at some
point you have to eat that thing and get another
a little sown I was all saying some email pickle,
like seventy five times. I was like, well, there's a
good thing. I'm definitely following along. There's a pickle involved
in this.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Well, it's been my happiest gift I've gotten and reaching
you got one. One of my friends gifted my group
of my girlfriend's gifted them, gifted one to me. Gotcha, okay,
send me a little care package and that was in it.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
And I was like this is the cutest little thing ever.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Has me like try to destroy and rip it.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
No, it's it's up on the table, but Hazel does
try and whack it sometimes.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Pickle that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, she thinks it's one of her cat toys.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
But that's that's been made me really happy. So anything
recently you've gotten that just made you happy, And you're like,
I just never would have known I needed or wanted this.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
I don't really get a lot of gifts.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I would have been thinking a little bit if you
were answering.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
But it's okay, stupid fires. By the way, happy weekend.
It's Wednesday, and so I'm middled of workday.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I had a cancel meeting, which is fine to do this,
and then I got to go to the grocery after
this and get some stuff for my kids fall festival. Anyways,
what would I say is a gift that made me go,
oh my gosh, wow, I haven't got one of those
in a while, So I don't really know. I think
maybe or just.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Something that it could have been.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
You bought something for yourself and it made you so
much happier than you really anticipated.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I'm trying to bring some happiness.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
What's it like to be happy?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
And that was a depressing twist.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
You asked, and I gave you the answer.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
I was trying to make you happy.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You didn't have to ask happy questions when we're probably not.
I'm just kidding now. I'm just all like crazy to
see if I can somehow a gift to pop in
my head.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
That's okay, I can't think of what.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Oh my wife got me overalls.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Oh we did talk about you were wearing the overall.
You haven't warn them for a while.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
It's been it's been summer. It's been one hundred fing
degrees outside the studio.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's freaking antarctica.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
I still do other things when I leave here. I
have to go pick up the kids and do all
this stuff i'm outside. But she got me overalls. And
I've always wanted overall since I was a kid because
Criss Cross and they had that song, so I remember
just seeing the basic make you jump that one jump jump,
come on, make it jump jump.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I got a reference.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yes, because there's another one House of pain jump around,
and they're pissed off because they had that song first,
and they had to overshadow Criss Cross because Criss Cross.
I think this came out first, and they kind of
like screwed him, like, well, we have a song called
jump Around, said the same kind of thing almost but
different anyways, and the guy in House of Pain is
also he Lo.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
So I just actually know I really want to hear
the story. I just I had jammed my finger in
a door this morning, and I just actually like put
it on the chair and scrape to this.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
STA actually started trying not to cry.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh my gosh, you take another break so you can
cry more commercials continue. So yeah, it's ever clear. Ever
Clear is the rapper and House of Pain? He was
ever clear first he failed started House of Pain with
his friends that jump around, jump up, jump up and
get it down, yea jump. It came ever clear, and
(26:04):
you merely might know what it is like, what it's like,
and you really might know what it is like that
which you play music? I played for you? I know.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
House of Pain?
Speaker 2 (26:18):
But which Okay, House of Pain and Chris cross Cross.
Which one had the overalls?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
The Criss Cross because there were two kids that wore
the overalls, but they wore them backwards. I was like, man,
it's so cool, I want overall. So bad, and then
I wanted them for a long time. Then I just
kind of like, I'm never going to get them. It's fine,
is what it is. And then overalls were like hard
to find, you can't find anywhere, and then I forgot
about it. And my wife one day we were somewhere
and I was like, oh my god, overalls. I've always
wanted overalls. And she remembered that and she got me
a pair of overalls for Christmas. I think it was
(26:47):
this past year.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I feel like it was this past year because I
feel like this is a recent gift because.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I wore them in February for CRS or March whatever
it was. Yeah, and I was like, I was like,
oh my gosh, you got me overalls. I've always wanted overalls.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
You wore them for you wore them a few times,
like within span. But then it did get summer too, yeah, then.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
It got hot yeah yeah so yeah. And then so
that was one of those moments where I was like, man,
this is like something I wanted for my childhood. And
so it's been like twenty plus years, you know, wanting this,
and you remember almost thirty years.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Actually, geez, your wife made childhood scuba happy.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah. I remember I almost I think I was crying
a little bit. I was like, Wow, this is what
it feels like to be happy. This is so cool.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
No, listen, Scuba, let me tell you something. That childhood
side of you that like has stuff in there.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
Like I was on a on a therapy call and
I like basically I had said something. She goes repeat
that and she's like, how old do you feel right now?
And I was like six and it just came out
of my mouth like I wasn't even thinking yeah, And
she was like, yeah, this childhood morgan something happened there.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, you should probably dive into that. And I'm like
freak or she yeah, or she been what's happening right now?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Yeah? And that was probably like for you that moment
where like the whatever age you were like when you
wanted of.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Nineteen ninety seven opening it up and not being there,
but then this time in this alternate universe, it was like,
oh my god, and.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
It was that childhood version of you that's now healed
because you got it exactly. Is that crazy, actual real concept,
Like there's a childhood version of you that was like
that really hurt you.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
I finally checked the box because like.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That, when people talk about trauma, it could be so
many different things. It doesn't have to be like she
pointed out to me, She's like, you could have been
left with your grandparents for a weekend and it really
made you sad, and like that can be something you
hold on to for decades. So for you, the deck,
like you could been holding onto for decades at that Christmas,
you didn't get those overalls.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I know it's been buried, and I just buried it
because we bury our emotions.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Yeah, and you were never able to get a pair.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
And now all of a sudden, like now that childhood
version of scuba, whether you were six, seven, eight, nine ten,
however old.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Was now healed thirteen fourteen, fifteen sixteen, I could keep going.
I'm not gonnall.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Okay, anyway, I think it's one hundred now said were
good if they could see your face. You guys a
(29:10):
lust Fox Council Hunter two.
Speaker 1 (29:11):

I'm like, I don't care, there's nobody that care, Derek,
and he'll just like keep it's a thing.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Anyways, what about Elizabeth?
Speaker 1 (29:24):

Speaker 3 (29:26):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
As I start to you know, date again, get me
what what do you think is a great first day?
Because I feel like my great idea of a first
date has kind of changed.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
What was your great idea of a first daid?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Well before, I'd.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Always to like, go grab a drink and you get
to know each other for a little bit whatever. But
now I think it's either you should go on a
walk because no obligation.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
That could be short, that could be long, and we
had to buy anything. There's no certain things. It's like
the perfect first date.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I would say, you should say, if we were to
go to church on Sunday, which one would you pick?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:01):
No, no, no. The first question I'm asking before we
even get to the day is what is yours? How
attached to it are you?
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Or do you go on a Saturday for Sabbath? How
many candles do you light around Christmas time? Do you
like candles that already put up a Christmas tree?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You want to know something really funny?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Huh. I'm not Catholic, by the way, so we can't mix.
Speaker 2 (30:22):

Speaker 3 (30:53):

you've seen the trailer. It's the mom who's like, you're
never marrying my son or whatever.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
I mean, I'm not kidding me. It literally looks like
my life.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
What's that one with Jennifer Lopez? Similar kind of script
where it's like, you're never marrying my sollar, you're not
good enough for my son.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Isn't that monster in law?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Monster la?
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yea?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
I think that's that one.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Yeah, that's a great Mecanic Yes, and.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Yeah the mother is like you're not good enough. Yes,
same kind of same exact script, but just different.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Just know about religious not religion.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Yeah, that was about money.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, just so happens to be one of my celebrity
people that I look like.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
She's a podcaster and he's Jewish.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Exactly, and it looks like your ex for real.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
That's crazy anyways.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Oh wow, okay, yes.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Well I'm perfect idea for our first aid.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
I think the walking around is great because my third
day with my wife was walking around San Francisco. We
have one of those ones where we met about my place.
She parked in my garage wasn't an innuendo for anything,
or parked in her garage, that'd be an innuendo. But
we just walked around. We just walked around. We just
literally parked the car and we walked all around San Cisco.
And I didn't have a lot of money, so I
we just kind of walked around, went to like maybe
(33:04):
two We got ice cream at one with spot, we
got a snack somewhere, and then we ended up at
a bar and had a couple of drinks and then
I parked my car in a garage.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
At least you're married now, so's But I.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Think the walking around is a great one because again,
again you're not tied to anything, and it gets too weird.
You can just start f and.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Running totally be like, you know, this has been great exactly, squirrel,
and you can't have any of those scenarios where like
I was trying like Venmo or Vimo request you and
be like pay me for that work.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
