Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two.
What is up, y'all? Welcome to the Best Bits. I'm
Morgan and super excited to bring on a show member
with me this weekend. That is a brand new triple dad.
Triple dad, yeah, because you're not taking a brand new dad,
but you're now a new dad of three. Yes. Yeah,

(00:22):
we are out and numbered and we are overwhelmed. Yes,
and Scuba Steve, thanks for coming on, and we're gonna
talk all about the baby, but we're gonna talk about
some other things and dive into it because you know,
we gotta hook line and sinker. Oh yeah for listeners, right, yeah,
just in the middle, give a little cushion, yes exactly.

(00:42):
So we gotta get started though, because we got a
lot to talk about and coming in at that number
seven spot. Anna Kendrick was on the show this week.
It was her first time ever being on the show
and it was cool to hear from her as an
actor and just her whole orc and everything she does,
and talked about why she never goes to see her
own movies in public. Just to really cool interview all
the way around. But we're not going to talk about
Anna Kendrick Scooba. We are going to talk about some

(01:05):
movies or TV shows that you're looking forward to seeing
this year. It's twenty twenty three, we're in January. Yes,
we got a lot of stuff coming out this year.
Is there anything you're excited to see as far as
movies and TV shows go? There isn't any that I'm excited,
mostly because I don't really know what's coming out as
far as TV shows. I haven't died. I was opportunity

(01:26):
to leave, and normally I look at Netflix and what's
coming up, mostly for guests and stuff, but I like
checked out. Really Yeah, Hey, you know, when you do
have two other kids and a new kid, that's kind
of what you do. I have other things I'm excited
about that are coming this year, not moving TV related.
If you want those, yeah, of course I want those.
I'll give my movie and TV shows, but I want
to hear yours first of all your random categories. So

(01:48):
my category is only one thing is theme parks. Okay,
a lot of really cool things coming at Universal in February.
Universal Studios in Hollywood first, because it's smaller landscape. They
did the exact same thing with Harry potter. They open
there for a smaller easier to get going. They're opening
up and you're probably seen it online in the tendo world,

(02:09):
did see where you literally you immerse yourself you go
down that long set of escalators, which, by the way,
you have been to Universal Hollywood. I haven't. I don't
know how this. So if you ever go, and anyone
listening who has been, they're probably thinking the same thing.
The escalators. It is so scary, so universal. In Florida,
it's flat, there's no mountains or hill, so everything's fine.
But in Hollywood it's built on like a mountain a canyon,

(02:31):
and so the theme parks and the studios are all
over this mountain and there's like roads everywhere. But for
people who go to the theme park to separate from
the top part of the park and the bomb part
of the park, there's all these escalators that are going
down a mountain and they're big escalators. And we're not
talking like ten steps, like I'm talking like hundreds of feet,
multiple ones. And I've always thought about this, like how

(02:52):
has no one ever fallen and like hurt themselves with
drinking and just being a theme park and all that,
And I don't know how I got in this tangent
of the of the escalators, but I always remember the
escalators being like, how has the one ever hurt themselves
on this? This is so scary, and they say don't
sit on them. I feel like it's safer to sit
on the escalators then it will be to stand on them.
M okay, that's definitely a new one. I've never heard

(03:14):
of sitting on an escalators, so these must be pretty terrifying.
If you saw. It's one of those ones where you
look up at it and it's like the stairway to Heaven.
It's so high up that it's intimidating and scary. Going up,
it's not so bad, but but going going down on it,
or going up and then looking back down at it,
I'm like, holy crap, how is this the means of
transportation to get down to the bottom side of the
theme parks? Yeah? Your escalators is gonna be as scary
as you ride at an amusement park. Yeah, almost like

(03:36):
you would need a ride to get down there. I'd
rather have that than take esclats what are they called
gondolas or gondola? Yeah, less liability, I feel like, yeah,
with alcohol involved in a theme park. But anyways, you
take the escalators to go all the way down to
go to the new part of the park and it's
Nintendo World, okay, and that's the first one coming to
Hollywood Orlando gets. There's I think I think the first
one was overseas in China. Universal in America is the

(03:58):
first one. Then Orlando will be the bigger one because
they've got more landscape to cover. To say, Orlando always
gets some big stuff, the biggest one that comes in
twenty twenty four. But this year, in February, a month
from now, Hollywood Studios opens up there in Nintendo World,
and it looks so freaking cool. I did see somebody,
somebody I follow with an iHeart. They got like early
access I think, and they were posting pictures of it,

(04:18):
and I was like, wow, this is insane. Yeah, they
give you early access. Or when I was an annual
passholder like that, would go randomly on a Tuesday and
no one's there and I was walking by Harry Potter
World wasn't open yet, and then some lady was like, hey,
what are you doing. I'm like, just me and my
wife were walking around. I want to ride some rides.
You want to go check out the Harry Potter World
almost like are you serious? And she they like, open
up this lifted gate and let like me and some
random people go in and check out the world. So

(04:40):
they do that a lot. They're like surprised guests to
check it out in advance. It's really cool. Yeah, that's
really cool. You just hope you're like a lucky one,
and then you see somebody else so you're like, dang,
I didn't get lucky. Yeah, you walk by and they
don't pick you, but they pick somebody else, Like whoa
why not me? Yeah? Exactly. That bitterness would kick in
very quickly, major bitterness. So that I'm excited about, which
I don't know when I'll be able to go see it,
but I'm excited for it some point to go see it.

(05:01):
Hopefully hopefully go see it this year. And then Tron
at Magic Kingdom in Orlando disney World, and we talked
about this one a little bit last time you were on,
and I think it opens very soon. Yeah, I believe
it's I mean within I mean a few months or
maybe even like this month in January. Yeah, that looks
that's gonna be a it's a one of a kind
of experience for that, right, I think. Okay, so amusement parks,

(05:24):
I like it. Yes, that's very exciting things to go
and visit. And you know I am talking about So
this year is my big thirtieth birthday. Yeah, and I'm
gonna do it up because you know, you only turned
thirty one, of course, And so I we're thinking of
going out to Disneyland and Newport Beach and that'd be
my thirtieth trail. Oh that'd be awesome, yeah, right, because
I like people will crap on it because it's older

(05:45):
and smaller, but I like it because it's the original.
So you can kind of see because you've been a
disney World, and it'd be cool for you because you
did it in reverse. You could see the I guess,
the evolution of things from where they started there to
where he took it and had more space and of
course more technology and more money and resources to take
a ride like Forsembled Pirates of Caribbean, very different from

(06:05):
La to Orlando. You'll see a lot of those differences,
and it's really cool to experience that well. And I've
heard that the food is better at Disneyland too, which
I'm excited really, and it's all it's right. It's much
easier to get to because it's all right there, you
have you have um what I guess it is like
their magic Kingdom is the Castle Park which is on
the left, and you have California ad Venture on the right,
and then all right there as you walk into it,
almost like a tea. You have at the base of

(06:26):
the tea is their Downtown Disney and all their hotels
and stuff. So there's no driving all over the place
to go from park to park or like long commutes.
You just everything is walkable within right there. It's it's
so cool. See, I love that And the whole reason
I really want to go though, is because they I
think it was last year or the year before they
release the Marvel area. Yes, yeah, and that's what I

(06:47):
want to see because I'm a huge nerd when it
comes to Marvel's, so I want to go and experience
that for the first time. I haven't seen it when
I left. When we moved here to Nashville, it was
on our construction because we used to be Bugs life
and it's just outdated. It was cool. Well, I do
love Bugs, I felt, Yeah, it was really it was
really cool because like they made it like they had
like tall grass and you're writing rides. It was like
a like takeout and you're writing in the takeout cup
or whatever. Very cool, but it's kind of outdated. Marvel

(07:10):
is definitely more on brand for where they're at now. Yeah,
for sure. So I will see if it pans out,
but that's my plan. That's what I'd like to do
for my Thirtiethahs. So cool. It's so many fun, right,
and then cars Land is so cool with the Lightning
McQueen ride is so much fun. And Credit Coaster. Oh
my god, you're gonna have an awesome time, right, it's
like the perfect I was like we can go out

(07:30):
and hang out in Newport Beach and then we have
like a day where I gonna go be my true self,
which is a total nerd dizealand it's like the best
of both worlds. Oh yeah, and Space Mountains better because
it side by side versus a singular one. Yeah. Oh,
it's just you're gonna have an awesome time. Okay, you're
like eating out for yeah, yeah, can I go with you? Yeah?
Can I go in your luggage? Yeah? Of course, Yeah,
so yeah, that's because I decided to go. I was like,

(07:51):
you know what, I can't guarantee that I'm gonna get
married or that I'm gonna have a bachelor at party,
but I can guarantee this year that I'm gonna turn thirty,
So I'm gonna throw a huge party for it. And
you're gonna Newport Beach, which is beautiful. Yeah, the whole,
the whole of Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna, all that
Santa Monica, Venice, well, Venice on so much because of
all the poop on the ground and the Yeah, okay,
that's an interesting revelation we have. The further you go

(08:12):
up on the beaches, it gets, it gets much more seedier,
and especially now it's it's gotten, the crime is really bad.
So I recommend you stay Manhattan Beach and down. Okay,
you're you're safe there. If you get towards OC, you're better.
Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Seal Beach. Oh my god, I'm
gonna say I heard it. I've heard also a lot
about Laguna Beach, and I think that's near there. It is. Yeah,
I think you have more fun in Huntington's Newport and

(08:32):
Seal Beach. Especially Seal Beach it's like a hidden gem
which is very close to Newport and all that I
have like a boardwalk and restaurants like great brunch spots.
Even Long Beach is really awesome. Now, Okay, you're going
to You're gonna have a lot of fun. I'm real
excited for you. Yes, Okay. We we were debating all
the places that you could possibly go for thirtieth. I
was like, yeah, what's not super expensive that people would
be able to do it? And it's kind of like

(08:54):
we can do an activity. I don't want to like
spend the whole week in drinking. I want to like
have some good food, be able to chill out, and
then also like have a fun activity. And this is
what we came up with, and I was like, this
is totally perfect. It's very funn Yeah, and there's a
lot of cool like comedy clubs you can go to
and see like people like I mean, Bob Saget passed,
but he would do these this place in Manhattan Beach

(09:15):
and he'd like ten bucks and he'd be an act
you would see on an arena tour and they're they're
just working out their sets and stuff. So a lot
of cool, a lot of cool little hidden gems within
that area you're going to be traveling to. Okay, well
if it gets a books, for sure, I'm coming to
you for all the things to do. Oh yeah deal, yes, okay,
So amusement parks was yours? You have any other amusement
park rides or anything you're excited about that you know of? Um,

(09:37):
I know that the Majana part is going to be
opening at Epcot, but I think it's towards the end
of this year, maybe early next year. My sister was there,
she's an annual pass and lives in Orlando, and Bob
Iger was there the other day. This is so funny.
So she I saw she posted on Instagram and I
was like, holy crap, is that Bob Iger. She's like, yeah,
he's right behind me. And then he like followed us
for a while, but not like intentionally. And then I
was like what was he? Like what did you experience?

(09:59):
And she goes, she was, so we randomly were walking
in the abcot and about to go to the bathrooms
by the front entrance, right there by the ball and
then there he was. He was just walking around saying
hi to people and employees and checking on the new
development behind the wall. They won't say Majana behind the wall,
and she goes. He looked like a fake robot that
almost like birds aren't real. I'm convinced bob Iger isn't real.
I feel like when he goes to bed, they plug

(10:20):
him in and then unplug him set him free during
the daytime. His teeth are so white, his skin doesn't
have any imperfections, and his clothing is perfectly put into place,
almost like an animatronic literally like Disney. Yeah, which was
kind of crazy to think about, because Disney had these
animatronics since the fifties that back then and even now
are so mind blowing and so realistic. What if this

(10:41):
is their creation of like like I know this is
so far fetched, but what if this is their experiment
to have the ultimate version of an animatronic that leaves
the ride and can move around and function like an AI,
but like a really amazing AI. And he's like in
charge of the whole company exactly, and they make me
charge of the company. But it's like it's like a
collective data and like it runs through like us whatever

(11:02):
of all the things that we should do and just
I don't know. It's a conspiracy theory. Hey, I love
a conspiracy theory. Okay, real life animatronic Bob Iger. I'm
looking at a picture of him right now and he
does kind of look not real. Yeah, yeah, it's a
it's a robot, robot programmed with even almost Walt Disney's
brain or concepts or ideas or idealism, and it goes

(11:23):
through a filter and an algorithm and it created this. Yeah,
like maybe maybe Walt Disney was the first of where
it was like they're like replicating his genes or whatever.
To continue on. Yes, you can't do Walt Disney because
it's too freaky. Yeah, so you go you create a
guy named Bob, and Bob Iger is a weird name. Yeah,
it doesn't like in Walt Disney's a strange name. Yeah.

(11:44):
So in that same kind of vein of just having
an out there name. Oh yeah, let's start this conspiracy theory.
I believe in it. Yeah it's yeah. But if it's
true that who cares though, like you should be offended
by or whatever people that's ridiculous, Like that's awesome. They
were able to create a lifelike animatronic that left the
riding and walk around and have opinions and thoughts and
run a company. Yes, listen, I'm forever conspiracy theory. I

(12:04):
think it's hilarious. I love looking at the universe a
little bit differently than we're supposed to. Yeah, yeah, okay,
well this is good. I like it. I like it
a lot. I also want to talk about some things
because there is so many you haven't seen them yet,
and some of these are Netflix, okay, and there's so
much coming out this year, even just oh gosh, like

(12:28):
Disney in general. Speaking of Disney, I'm excited for the
new season of Mandalorian, which is Star Wars coming out.
There's so many Marvel movies, Aunt Man in the Wasp,
Quantum Mania. We've got Guardians of the Galaxy Volume three. Yes,
like some really good stuff coming out. And then Netflix
has a rom com coming out with Reese, where there's
been an Ashton Kutcher called Your Place or Mine that

(12:49):
I am so excited for. We're starting to enter like.
I believe rom coms are making a comeback in a
good way. I don't think they ever went away, but
I think the quality of the the ones that we
used to watch in like the nineties early two thousands
is coming back. Oh yeah, because that quality definitely went down. Yeah,
and I feel like we're getting back there. Yeah. Yeah,
And that's what I love because Reese Withersman is like

(13:09):
Queen of Romcoms. Ye. Ashton Kutcher is also like the
keying I guess she could say yea so perfect mix totally. Yeah.
So that one's coming out on Netflix I'm excited for.
And then, funny enough, I never watched How I Met
Your Mother. Oh you didn't know, Well I didn't, which
was like a really popular TV show, huge, Yeah, But
I did get into the remake, which is How I
Met Your Father with Hillary Duff. Yes, because I'm a

(13:30):
huge fan of Hillary Duff. I just love pretty much
everything she does. And so that first season I watched
loved it. In the new season of How I Met
Your Father is coming out this month. Is that I
saw when I received that. I'm not really sure if
it they go on Hulu, but it seems like it's
also on live television two or is that one only
on Hulu? You know? I don't know. And the reason
I say I don't know is because I think I'm
going to be doing like the free trial of Hulu

(13:52):
to be able to watch this, because listen, I have
so many freaking streaming services at this point. I do
have Disney. You can do the bundle where it's Disney plus,
ESPN Plus and Hulu and it's only like fifteen bucks
a month. Wait what? Yeah? You should? You should almost
if you haven't done it, and if you can't upgrade
and it doesn't make sense, you should almost cancel your

(14:12):
Disney Plus, get a new email or whatever. I use
another email and resign up for the bundle. And I
believe it's like fourteen ninety nine or fifteen dollars for
all three of those, because we have a lot for
Disney per month? How much do you pay for Disney?
Check your bills, girl, I'll tell you right now. Let's
just go one way up. But I'm pretty sure Disney
was like nine, it's like ten ninety nine. But then

(14:32):
they did the plus bundle thing. It was all three
of those. Yeah, let me look, let me look at Yeah.
You may you may be getting shafted it. You may
want to just cancel it all together and start fresh.
Maybe it's not well, Okay, I buy the yearly because listen,
buy year Disney. I I'm gonna keep forever pretty much.
And they do give you a discount for buying yearly,
so that that is okay, that makes sense. Then, okay,
so you are right. It's well for premium it's ten

(14:55):
ninety nine a month for Disney, so not as bad
as I thought. It's as I always see the like
one hundred dollars charge that I get come through yearly,
and that's what I was thinking of. Yeah here, yeah,
they have bundle plans, yet use your plan the trio
here you go trio which is Hulo, Disney and ESPN
plus twelve ninety nine a month, and then the premium
with no ads is nine. Okay, Hey, that I can do. Yeah,

(15:15):
I like it. I'm gonna I'm gonna look into this now.
I appreciate exactly. Yeah, just over here being miserable that
I have to keep doing the free subscription. Don't buy
Hue Solo too, because and then you're gonna spending even
more money. I would just say, probably better just to
cancel Disney Plus if you can't add it, well, you
know on scuba. This helps me because if I do
ever actually have a guy over at my house, then
he can watch sports, because as of right now, I
have zero sports on television. That's ESPN plus Boom, so

(15:37):
then you have all three. That's true. If you want
to watch sports that there's a game on or something
that's on us. That's typically why I don't because I
just don't have it. So I don't try to go
like buy it. Yeah, true, true, true, Not very often.
I'll just catch it up on social media. Okay, yeah,
that's probably. Yeah. I'll be honest too. I mean, I
like sports, but I don't mostly because the time. But
I don't. I'm not a super passionate sports fan. I

(16:00):
have the teams that I like and I enjoy, but
I'm not like we're people that work here like lunchbox
or whoever where they're just like if they live and
die by it. Like I just don't have the energy
for that on in the background for pretty much everything.
Oh my god. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm not saying
just it's not for me. Yes see, I'm the person
who has like sitcoms in the background, like yeah, Friends,
New Girl. I recently started watching The Mindy Project. Oh okay,

(16:23):
it's a good show, which I had never watched before,
and I'm obsessed with it. It's a great show. She's
an incredible ep and actress. The evolution of that show
is awesome. Yes, I'm currently on season two. That's how
much i've been in one week. Alf they're like twenty
minute episodes. Yeah, it was like forty thousand episodes per season.
They're so good though. They're awesome though. Yeah, I'm obsessed.

(16:43):
I'm like, why has nobody told me about the show
before I can? Okay? Cool, Yeah, that's a great show
to get into. Yeah, and another thing that I've been
watching recently because I want to know, like, if you've
binged anything even though you're you know, you're a lot
going on at the house. Yeah, Mindy Project was one
of them. And speaking of rom coms, The Wedding Year
with Sarah Highland came out on Netflix. Okay, one of
their first new movies and it was really good. How
was she as because that's the one from Modern Family, right, yes,

(17:05):
so how is she transitioning from always doing TV to
doing like a film? It's like her first film. I
don't think it's her first film because i've seen her
another thing, especially even before Modern Family too. Okay, and
I thought it was great. She's I think the cool
thing about her that I like watching is she's so genuine.
You know how sometimes you would watch actors and you're

(17:26):
like they're really fighting to play this character. Yeah, with her,
it's almost like everything just feels very natural. Okay, that's
just who she is. Yeah, And that's how I felt
like watching her in this movie. It was just very
much her Okay, And it may not be who she
is in real life, but that's how I felt watching her. Okay,
like I could be convinced that was her in real life.
But that means that she's doing a great job at
a role because you think that's her when whenever someone
plays that role so well with would be good, bad

(17:46):
or whatever, you're like, Okay, I won. Yeah, I forget
some we had on the show. They're talking about the role.
I think it's the guy, Um, I forget his name,
but he wasn't Walking Dead on our show a few
years back, The Bad Guys, the bald guy, Yeah, Michael something.
I think his name is Frank cast. Google is great
for this. Brian Cranston, no um, Walking Dead Dean nor

(18:06):
Walking Dead Bad. Yeah, he's in the first season that
he had, like the arm that he had put on whatever.
He's one of the bad guys, cass who did we
have on? He was the really mean guy Michael I
think his name was Michael something, but he wait, no,
that's a Michael Michael. There's Michael Rooker. Oh you could
have told me Guardians the Galaxy, Guardians the Galaxy. Yes, yes, Dush,

(18:29):
you're done that? Yeah? Where he plays that, always plays
that like that mean tough guy. And then I think
Bobby asked him, He's like, do you ever have that
problem in public or whatever? Or do you want to
say anything? He's like no, He's like, if people view
me as that, he goes, that means I'm doing my
job because because in real life, I'm just this, you
know whatever, just normal dude, happy, nice guy. But if
I evoked that kind of feeling, then I did a
really great job in my role because you I convinced you. Yeah.

(18:50):
So yeah, so it's a great thing, yes for sure.
And I think there's a lot of that now, especially
with with this one. I also watched The People We
Hate at the Wedding with Kristen Bell Okay on Amazon,
and that was really cute. Okay, these are both rom coms.
That's why I say I feel like the quality of
rom comps is kind of coming back. Yeah, and both
of these are really enjoyed. Okay, Amazon, Netflix, two different things.

(19:10):
There's also okay, were you a fan of the National
Treasure movie? Oh? Yeah, I love the movies with Nicolas Cage. Okay,
well you can watch this Nias Cage. Was that Tom? Yeah,
Nicholas Cage, you got it? Who's the moment Tom Hanks?
When Tom Hanks was doing it? Thomas Hank did National Treasure?
He did Thomas Hank excuse me? Did you do some
sort of thing like that where he remember his hair

(19:30):
being like jet black and like like parted back or something. Yeah,
but I don't think that nothing National Treasure related. It's
definitely Nicolas Cage. Nikolas Cages that one. Okay, he steals
the Declaration of Independence? Yes yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, But
so you can watch this with your kids on Disney
because the daughter, right, yeah, it's well not Nicholas Cage's daughter,
but there's a National Treasure TV show. No, she's not

(19:52):
his daughter. Oh I thought that this was his daughter,
like his daughter or something. Well, so I haven't quite
figured out, because they dropped one up so a week.
There is somebody in there, and I'm not sure her
connection to the old show yet. I haven't quite figured
it out or the old movies. But there's a new
one that is a daughter of somebody. But they introduced
those characters right in the first episode, so it could

(20:15):
be the blonde character in here that I haven't quite
found her connection yet. Okay, you might be referring to Okay,
gotcha the Da Vinci code. That was Tom Hanks okay,
which felt like national kind of right, Yes, the same
damn thing. Fair. I was so confused. What is that? Sorry, No,
it's okay. Thomas Hanks, Thomas Hanks. That but that was
the best thing I've heard all day. Thomas Hanks. I

(20:38):
think only his mother calls him that. Maybe his wife too. Yeah,
well you've seen him, so maybe you can call him Thomas.
Maybe when you at a very professional level, you know, Yeah,
please call me Thomas Morgan. Oh well, the National Trevor
TV show Okay on Disney Plus is really good. Okay, cool?
I would love to see that. It's safe for kids, right, yeah,

(20:59):
you can probably want it? Gets like, there's definitely action
in it, but they won't know what's going on. It's
not like bloody or gory or anything. There's just definitely
some like fight scenes and stuff like that. But it
is really good, and each week I get excited when
a new episode drops. That's how I know it's good. Okay, cool.
I love the weekly because I'm we talked about before,
how you I'm a crotchy old man with like with

(21:20):
things like that, and I feel like giving it once
a week it was always so special because then you
had something to hold onto for a whole week and
the excitement of waiting for it and the anticipation and
the conversation and the speculation and then like, binging is fine,
but on some things, I feel like but some things
you want to kind of wait for it and have that.
I feel like anticipation in waiting and patience is overlooked

(21:41):
and forgotten and it's such a beautiful thing. Yes, I
do like it that we're doing it with new shows,
and I like binging old shows because it's like everybody's
already seen it, yes of course that yeah, yeah, yeah,
So I do like the balance of that. That's what
they should only be. I feel like old shows should
only be bingeable because they're old shows and they've already happened.
They're not real time, and all new shows should be
once a week. Okay, Hey, you heard it from Scuba Steves.
So if something changes, Scooba, Steve's in on the FBI

(22:04):
and they changed everything. Yes, I've been wanting this for
a long time, that's what I believe. And then the
last one, I watched all of the Mission Impossible movies
for the first time. Okay, yep, because they are a lot,
a new one coming out this year and a new
one coming out next year, ninth and tenth, right, so
that's seven and eight okay, very much, almost six of them.
Fast and Furious type thing where they're just coming out
with so many Oh my gosh, was so much better,

(22:25):
way better. Fast and Furious is super corny and dumb. Yes,
and I didn't I didn't have any anticipation going into
these movies besides the fact that it's Tom Cruise and
their action movies. That was it. Yeah, and then you
know that he's doing a lot of the stunts himself,
which is even more incredible. Yes, I loved them, Okay,
really enjoyed these action movies. And now I'm excited to
be a part of them coming out in theaters this
year and next year watching them. Yeah, yeah, that's really cool.

(22:48):
And I one of my favorite ones was Ghost Protocol
if you happen to remember that at all vaguely, Yeah,
I saw when it came out, so was a while ago. Yes,
And this is where Jeremy Renner gets introduced as a character,
and it just kind of like really picks up. It's
kind of the middle of the thing. And but yeah,
I enjoyed them. So if you're looking for like a
I feel like if anybody wants to see like a
binging movie series, that's the one that's what they should watch. Yeah,

(23:11):
it's a great From what I remember, those movies are fantastic.
I loved all of them. Yeah, they're some more than others,
but I definitely love them. It's almost kind of like
the the r version of like the I know they
still make them though, But James Bond where it was
really biger than seventies. Yes, like the action thriller, and
there was a bunch of them and a bunch of yeah,
the same kind of thing for us. I haven't seen
the James Bonds, so maybe that's I like doing these

(23:32):
movies series where I binge and like see if I
like them today, and Bond I think you liked too,
because it's cool because the Bonds change over time. Yeah,
you know, it starts with Shatner and how many of
the how many of those are there? There's a lot
of them. I don't feel like anything's gonna be as
bad as when I tackled Marvel and Star Wars. So
that's a lot. And that's also confusing because it's all
over the place in different worlds and everything. James Bond
is just James Bond. It's just different actors throughout the

(23:53):
different decades. But it starts from one. It goes all
the way to mere. So probably fifteen of them, maybe
fourteen nighteen sixty two. Okay, wow, and let me let
me count one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seven, eighteen,
nineteen twenty two four. That's more than Marvel. Wow, that

(24:15):
is more than Marble. But easier to decode. What's one too? Yeah?
There is? Yeah. Yeah, we talked about the show. I
felt like, yeah, yeah, but it's easier for you to
figure out the chronological order of it versus Marble. You
need a freaking map to figure out what goes next
because there's so many there's so much crap on that. Wow,
this is great. Yeah, I'm looking at all of them,
all the different like names of them and stuff that
would be a like, that's like, that's commitment. That's a lot.

(24:38):
I didn't realize there's that meant. I thought fifteen Okay,
But are all like the og Ones really good or
they kind of like ma now I haven't I've only
seen maybe a couple of the og Ones, but I
feel like they're classics, so you have to kind of
appreciate it for what it is, like kind of you're
going to Disneyland and seeing the classic in the original
I feel like you have to see it because I
don't know if they all intertwine or if it's important,
but I feel like it's important for the integrity of

(25:00):
the series. Yeah, well that's what I think. It's really
cool to watch movie series and just see like what
has transpired over time. And that's why I wanted to
watch Mission Impossible because I was like, yes, Marvel's so
cool because of how it's been created and how they've
created this whole universe, but Mission Impossible was just kind
of standalone, and it's just been such good movies that
they keep making more. Yeah, I'm like, okay, like, so

(25:21):
let me see what this is all about. And that
was kind of what happened. Yeah, so well maybe I
don't know. I don't know this big tackle tackle what
happened in like two thousand and six. Maybe that's like
five Yeah, maybe that's where I start. That's a full project.
That's almost like the entire year. You would need to
start it now. You would think scuba, but I've beene
those marvels in like a month. Okay, well they never mind.

(25:43):
Then summer break you'll be able to finish it. Your
flight to La and back. Yeah that's true. Okay, you
got anything you've been watching? Um so yeah, so we
binging we did actually been something. We're not all the
way through. We partial binge and we're now getting into
towards the end of it. Okay. It's called it's are
of the ninety day franchise. It is called Love and

(26:04):
Paradise the Caribbean, a ninety day story on TLC. Wait,
so a part of like ninety day Fiances yeah, so
fiance is the og. It's original. But then because because
it did so well, they've almost extended the octopusy tentacles
out and created different for a long time and throw
the tentacles out and create different worlds within it. They've

(26:25):
got like, you know, the overseas where people from America
go overseas to their love, which is the reverse because
in ninety day Fiance, it's somebody from you know, like
Japan or whatever coming to America and that's that's that part.
But it's the reverse. It's ninety day in reverse where
an American goes over to Europe or over to Iran
and leaves the American lifestyle, which is actually really interesting,
leaves the American lifestyle to go to their lifestyle, and

(26:47):
a lot of them live in thord world countries and
their family was like, why the hell are you going
to live in the middle of nowhere Africa? And I
love him da And then when they go back to
America back and forth, the guy cheats on him or
girl cheats. It's so much. But then they have different
other versions of like after the ninety days and single life,
and they have pillow talk, which I hate that one
Phillo Talk is the worst because it's it's it's all
the episodes, but they have previous cast members sitting on

(27:10):
their beds like commentating throughout the episode, and it's so
annoying because, yeah, that's not fun. It's not fun because
sometimes are fun, but sometimes are just like dumb and
sometime it's like you're talking over the episode and I
want to watch it and I hate that's the worst one.
But this one is interesting because it's the newest one,
that's what they've given us. But it's cool because it's
the it's the Caribbean, and I love the Caribbean. It's beautiful,

(27:30):
so it's fun to watch it. But it's always people
going over to the Caribbean different islands for their love.
And then it's the now. It's a different take of
like all right, you're gonna come to America or I'm
gonna come to you, and there's just a lot of
cheating and a lot of drama, and it makes me
feel good about my life because their lives are so
it's in such shambles. So I think we watch it
for that reason, and we've watched i think six of
the ten episodes so far. Okay, so it's like a

(27:52):
reality show. Oh, very reality. Oh yeah yeah. I wasn't
sure if it was like scripted or if no, it's real.
I mean I'm sure there's some there, maybe some you know, yeah,
but it's full on reality. Dang, and it's is it
TLC TLC yeah, tance. I almost recommend if you just
like something fun and something like because when it first
came out it was mind blowing. It was like, I
think it came out like in twenty twelve, and I
watched the first season, You're like, whoa, this is groundbreaking.

(28:15):
It was wround the first time Married at Sight first
came out. It was in that era Married at First
Sight ninety day Fiance and I remember watching it going
like whoa doing this? Calling it out what it is
because a lot of them are like, he's a gold digger,
he's just trying to come to America or vice whatever
that kind of thing. And and then you and it's
fun to watch from almost like Bachelor, where you see
who's still a couple and who has kids or who divorced.
You're like, oh, I knew that was gonna happen or

(28:36):
that kind of stuff. Was the Duggers on TLC. They're
a TLC family too, Yeah, okay, but they're not this
ninety day fiance. No. The Duggers is like that um
that Big Family one. Okay, I can't I can't keep
the counting or whatever. Yeah. TLC is basically almost like
a human Experiment channel where they're like that they they
kind of like, you know, put a glass cage around

(28:58):
a family that's different and unique. And was that also
the TV that had wife swap or was that something
that was something else? But it was like it was
like that's the kind of stuff it is. Yeah, youah,
the Little People show they call Little People, Big World
or whatever, The Duggers nineteen and counting things. That's also
where remember the one UM plus eight johnny Ca plus

(29:21):
eight was on there. I had a wedding show where
it was like you go and like you got four weddings. Yes, yeah,
I love that show, but I was getting married. I
love watching that and you should talk crap about the
other weddings and stuff. You could tell who was like
really wants the winter. Actually, you could tell who really
needs the honeymoon because their weddings sucked and they were
they're broken. Then the lavish in the hamp Dunes and
they get the free honeymoon. You're like, they don't need it. Yes,

(29:43):
but that show was awesomes It was so cool. Do
I still make any ones of that? I don't think
somebody it's definitely Saturday, Saturday morning, between like six am
and nine am. They play the hell out of it. Dang,
I need to get tlz is so I can start watch.
Yeah you do. Yeah, you gotta have TLZ. Do you
not have a cable provider or like or cable cable anymore? Okay?
I think TLC's on an app, so you could do
it there, or a lot of those shows maybe on

(30:04):
other platforms like Hulu. The reason I had to get
rid of cable is because I kept watching Hallmark all
the time. You weren't watching anything good. I'm just kidding. No,
it was like it was like I was just watching
you know what I mean, like background noise. I still
do it now, but that was not Okay. I like this.
I like this show, and this is a good suggestion
for a reality show. Yeah, anything else you guys have
watched um And then the other thing, this is the

(30:26):
more of a kid related one. It's on netflixum Sonic Prime.
So it's Sonic, you know, Sonic A Little Blue Hedgehog. Yeah,
Jim Carrey, yes, yes, and yeah those movies. So they
haven't they've had animated movies or animated TV shows in
different versions of niations. The nineties, they have like a
nineties morning cartoon Sonic. They had an anime Sonic that
came out in the mid two thousands. But this is

(30:47):
like the next generation Sonic. So it's really crisp, clean animation,
digital graphic animation, and it's really cool because it's Sonic,
but it's got some like time travel slash like ultimate
Alternate universes love that, which is kind of really cool.
So kind of I watch it going, oh, it's really cool,
and as someone who grew up in an era of
Sega Genesis and Nintendo being really cool, and it's really

(31:09):
it's for me. It's fun to watch. So I liked it.
I know, I'm I'm all game for it. I love
the Sonicketchhog movies. Yeah, so I think you may actually
like if you like the movies, you may actually like
this animated one because it is pretty cool what they
do with it. Okay, yeah, I like it. I'm game
for this. I like your suggestions. Thank you. Yeah, And
I would also like to knowledge that we have definitely
talked about all these TV movies and things we're excited

(31:29):
for for thirty minutes. And that's fine, that's perfectly. It's fun,
you know why, Because it's a new year. It's a
new year. We can do it how we want. By
the way, it's a podcast. This isn't time for breaks
for radio. I know. I just looked how it's like, dang,
we geeking out hard. Yeah, we gonna play a song,
play commercials. When we do play commercials, we don't play
commercials by a certain time. One thing I want to
cap with that you may already know us. But when
you go to Disneyland, because you went to I caught MGM,

(31:51):
but it's Hollywood Studios in Orlando. We went to Universal.
I don't know if that's the same thing. No universals separate.
So when you went to Disney you didn't go which
steam parks did you go to? We went to Disney
World and then we went to Universal Studios. Well, we
went to Disney World, Like, there's four parks, do you remember?
We went all four? Was okay? Cool? So you did
you go off that's why I thought. I wasn't sure.
So in Hollywood, you you're a tower of terror. Oh

(32:12):
I didn't, but my family didn't. Oh dang, so you're
not going to see the difference. Oh I'm such a baby.
That's a major Listen. I don't like roller coasters either,
but I just jumped myself into it. Once you get
into it, it's the initial fear factor of getting onto it.
Once you're on it, it's fine. Okay, let me tell
you something. Splash mountain. Yes, yeah, a baby drop. It's
like forty feet Okay, I cried, he's a baby drop.

(32:36):
I cried. Oh, then you would not be able to
constant dropping. My my family convinced me because they were
all doing it and they're like, you will be fine.
And ultimately I was fine, Yes, but I was shaking
and I was crying the whole Wow. It's that the
It's not a fear of heights. I don't have a
problem with hys. I have a fear of the stomach drop.
I hate it so much that it made me cry.

(32:58):
The only way to combat that is to scream as
loud as you ff and can. That's for me that
whenever the drop comes you just gotta just you have
to let it out, you know, when you get paralyzed
in fear. That was me. But okay, but but I
feel like screaming it releases the paralyzed. I was literally paralyzed,
tear coming out of my eye and I was shaking,
and my mom was just like, Okay, Morgan doesn't need
to ride it, yea, let's go put her on a

(33:19):
small roll. Let's go walk around guys as a leaver diss. So,
so yeah, I don't. I don't ride anything with the drops,
but I did ride some of the role coasters and
I was fine. I did the new Guardians of the Galaxy.
It's and if they're like and if they're upside down
and stuff, I'm even fine. It's just when the drop
happens that really messes with my like whole nervous system.
I just shut down. So the difference in that is

(33:41):
the Disney World is old, it's two tea, It's based
on the Twilight Zone. The one of Disneyland is Guardians
the Galaxy thing, and it's so because I'm so afraid
of those two and I feel like the Guardians of
the Galaxy version is smoother and not as bad as
the Orlando one because it's they redid, it's totally refurbished,
and the drops are really smooth, and then the soundtrack
distracts you from all the dropping, and it's so fun

(34:04):
and so cool. Maybe because you're in California, maybe popping
edible and and then you wait, wait thirty minutes fort
to hit and then just go on it. You won't
feel it. It would be great. Oh god, I'll probably
feel it worse. I'll probably be freaking panicking. I take
a deep brad, drinks and water, have fun, let loose.
I'm not afraid of a lot of things with that. Okay, Yeah,

(34:24):
but I did get experienced the Guardians of the Galaxy ride,
the new one. It's just phenomenal, Like that's the best
ride they have all their parts with. So I'll take
I'll take that. I'll just focus on that experience, yeah,
instead of trying this new one and not be bummed
that I'm missing the Guardians of the Galaxy ride. Yeah,
you from California, but you got the you got the
other stuff we're talking about, like the what's it called? Um,
what do you like Marvel? Marvel? Oh? Yeah? If everyone

(34:46):
goes right now, like I'll be marvel. I'll just be
finding Captain America and eating some food. And the food's
awesome there, yes, especially if you go during your birthday
months it's October October? Oh are they doing food and wine?
Then I don't think they are. I think food and
wine happens in Florida that time that time, but I
think LA is springtime. That's okay, because I was like,
I could go back for food and wine festival in Florida,
but I was like, no, I could go to the

(35:07):
other one and they can get to see another park.
So that was ultimately what was decided. Okay, cool, that's smart. Then. Yeah,
and their food there in general, outside of food and
mine time is phenomenal. Yeah, because I was I impressed
with Disney World as much. Okay, yeah, but and there
was like a few favorite standouts, but not overall. I
wasn't like, this is really good. You should be checking
your give the Disneyland app Oh yeah, okay, cool, good.

(35:28):
I know I got experienced with that. Now you need
to make your reservations for restaurants the moment that they
open up, because I know it's like I think it's
every six months they go out six months, So you
should be checking the reservations as as soon as you
can because those reservations for Disney Tip. Yes, like I
would even check now, Like as we're talking, I'll look
just for S's and Giggles, I will look for you.
But that was the one thing you have to do.

(35:50):
You have to look at your reservations in advance because
all those restaurants are very popular. And the one that's
the coolest experience is in Pirates of Caribbean. They have
an actual restaurant in the ride and it's like New
Orleans cuisine, but it's just such a cool ambiance because
you're outside and it's like it's bright and I need
to grease you. Go inside it's completely pitch black and

(36:10):
you got the boats going by and really great food.
It's such a cool experience. Okay, I like this. I'm
looking into this one. Yeah, all the pro tips. I
appreciate it, especially because I know people are probably planning
their vacations right now, so we're getting all the ideas
out there. So as far as you can go is
three months at a time. So if you're going in October,
then what minus tensil in minus three, so January or July.
Sorry the other Jay, so in July the screw, so

(36:35):
start checking around June July for a reservation. Okay, okay,
I got you. I appreciate the pro tips. Like I said,
I'm gonna be coming back to you and I get
I'll figured out annual pass weeks ago, once a week.
So I got all the tips exactly. See, we're good,
we got this. Okay, we're moving on from from TV
movies stuff finally, Jesus, I know. Listen, hey, I can
geek out all of it. Yeah, but it's only on
the things that I really like to watch. I can't

(36:56):
like watch all TV movies. It's just like certain genres.
Yeah yeah, and that's okay. I got my genres too. Yeah. Okay,
his kids in crap Kids crap an amusement part. That's
actually what it is. Coming out of the verse. Six.
Amy's son shared some hygiene advice on his personal radio
show that he started, and y'all love hearing his radio show.

(37:17):
So I wanted to include that one here. And we're
gonna keep this one short and sweet because you know,
like I said, we just geeked out hard for a
little bit. But I would like us to share some
quick advice because and I'll tell you why Scuba. This
happened to me recently. I had to end things with
a guy that I was talking to, and it reminded
me that there's a reason why you don't ghost people,

(37:40):
even when it's really hard. I did not want to
send this text message. I did not want to be
mean to somebody. I did not want to let them
down or you know, I felt bad that I was
essentially letting them go. Yeah, But even through all of that,
through a lot of anxiety that I had in a
full drive to Atlanta that I had to think about it,
I still ended up sending the text and he was
very apreciative that I communicated and told him. So my

(38:02):
piece of advices, don't go even though it's really freaking
hard and a lot easier to do that than it
is to send the text message. It is, and I
feel like it's I feel like chromatically and I think
maybe therapeutically, it's probably better to cut ties. Like I
remember my wife was telling me one of our friends,
who was best friend growing up, became a drug addict.
And you know, when you're a drug adict, you say
and do things you don't mean you're in a different state.

(38:24):
And it was like that for years, and then as
a best friend, you try to hold on and try
to hold on, and then they get to a place
where you just you can't anymore, and you've got your
own life, you know, the other thing, and they go
down a dark path and eventually their family it's their
responsibility to bring them back up, and she did. And
then one of the things they tell them is you
have to reach out to all the people you did wrong,
especially the ones that were like, you're really good friends.
And instead of ignoring it and be like, okay, let's
start fresh and move on, they're like, no, you can't

(38:45):
start fresh until you communicate to those that not saying
you did wrong to this guy, but people that you
either you were with and something happened you just connected
for whatever reason to in this situation doing wrong. You
have to go back to them and talk to them
and try to make amends. Nothing it to be the
best friend. In your case, the same thing too, you
don't be best friends with this guy, but at least
cut it off, move on and know that you cut

(39:05):
it off and gave your response and had an amicable split.
Exactly that I was looking for. Yeah, having communication and
be all right cool, well deuces, yeah, don't call me
ever again. But you know now why and you are good.
We're good. Yeah, And at least just to your point,
it provides a lot that you probably don't have to
spend time in therapy doing if you just send the

(39:25):
text message or make the call or whatever you have
to do, which is very hard to do. I'm not
saying it's easy. It's not like you're you write your
name down a sheet of paper. Oh gosh. No, it's
a lot because as you start thinking about emotions are
involved people's hearts, like and you just realize that you
could hurt someone, not intentionally, but and so that's my
piece of advice, no matter how hard. And maybe send
the text message to make the phone call. Do not

(39:46):
ghost on people. Just do it, Just end it if
you need to. Yes, some piece of advice. What you got.
My piece of advice is don't have more children than
you and your wife. I like this, and you know
what you're leading us in. So we're gonna that's our teaser. Yeah,

(40:08):
we're going into this. Okay, all right, this is perfect
because in at number five is us talking about Dolly
Parton and her coming on the show. We talked about
this because it was her birthday this week. Yeah, and
these are really cool stories and I love Dolly Parton.
You can see all that on Bobby Bones dot com
or our social media. We posted videos of it. But
because of a birthday, you know, you had the birth
of a child. That's my relation here. I need to

(40:29):
hear all the details. That's your segue that Ti. Yes,
and your piece of advice was not to have more
children though, Yeah, that is one thing, and I don't.
I don't want to. I don't want it to sound
like I regret having my third child of one hundred percent, don't.
I just not saying. And if I were to have
another in retrospect, would've done it. No, I would still
have done it because I still want more kids. Even

(40:49):
now having a third child. I think we could do
it again and have a four child, whether my wife
agrees with that or not. I was gonna say, I
feel like this is one sided. Potentially Scuba yes, um so,
But in the scenario that we're in right now, I
haven't been two or three weeks. God is it overwhelming?
Because well, especially in this maybe it's different for everyone

(41:11):
where if so, let's say, for example, if we had
our kids and then waited what we were thinking about doing,
waited ten years, then it probably would be easier because
then you've got two kids that are you know, ten
and eight, and they're a little bit more aware and
they can communicate a little bit more. But when you
got a kid that's four and when that's two, it's
nice to get them all done back and back and
back like that. But the four year old is just

(41:32):
he has big feelings, so trying to figure things out.
Lots of transitions already with having another a sibling and
now another sibling, and then him trying to figure out
you know, he's still at that age of like trying
to figure out who he is, you know, not saying
who he is. But he's four, you know, he's about
to go to school. It's a lot of transieriencing a
lot of things for the first time, yes, exactly, and
his communication is there, but it's not he's four. He's

(41:53):
communicates like a four year old and he's huge. So
like when we go to basketball games or anywhere in public,
they think he's like six, and I'm like and then
I'm like, and I'm like, no, Like, if he that's
something that you know, a four year old would do,
the like they kind of give him a weird look
or me and weird looking. I'm like, no, he's And
I'm like, I'll say something like, oh man, big feelings
for a four year old, and then something will go
he's four, and I'm like, yeah, he's four, that's why

(42:15):
he's acting that way. May looking he's much bigger and older,
but he's only a four year old kid, So you know,
give us a little grace here. Yeah, he's gonna have tantrums.
He's freaking four. But then you got and then you
got a two year old who just got off breastfeeding,
you know, a year ago, and now mom was whipping
out her boobs and give him to another child, and
she's like whoa, And she's very jealous and she's too

(42:37):
so she can't fully communicate at all because she's too
and um, and so I caught her. I caught her
the other night. We were laying in bed and my
wife is breastfeeding our newest baby, and I saw her
like do one of these things where she slowly started
up with her mouth up and like go for the
other boob. And then I was like, du what are

(42:58):
you doing? And she looked at me like, oh shoot,
caught red handed. Caught red handed. And of course it
hasn't you, tan trum. And you can't explain her because
she's too like, maybe you can't do this because she
doesn't get it, she doesn't care, she doesn't know. She
wants it to give me that milk right there. So
our solution was my wife, when she's breastfeeding with one boob,
she'll put on like a hawker one of these things
and pull milk from her other boob and then we'll

(43:21):
put that in like a bottle or a cup and
give it to her to keep her happy. And she
loves it because breast milk is great. It's like it's
really it's I mean it's liquid gold. Yeah, so and
she loves it, so she's all right. That was our
little compromise every once while to give her a little
hit of it's like giving a shot of whiskey, you know,
at sugar, a little bit of sugar, yeah exactly. Yeah.
And then a new baby who's a new baby, and
of course it literally has you can't control anything about it.

(43:43):
It is what it is. So it's it's overwhelming. It's
a lot. Okay, it does sound like a lot, just
hearing like the bare minimum of what's happening. Yet, are
you guys getting any type of sleep whatsoever? Um, somewhat yes. Her,
I think a little bit more less than me because
she is breastfeeding, and in the early stages it's cluster
feed city like it is, like, which cluster feeding means

(44:04):
like they eat like every freaking thirty minutes. They'll eat,
spit up, throw up, poop, and then want to eat again.
And then as soon as you feel like they're gonna
be fine and go down, they want to eat again
and eat again and eat again. And it's just really
tiring on her. But it's our third time doing it,
so it's you know, she's got it. It's totally fine,
but it's very tiring on her. Yeah, And then for me,
it's almost like lunchbox aet of best. He's like, you're
like a single parent with two kids, because then I

(44:25):
have to always take care of the other two because
she's tied to that one. Yeah, but it's awesome though,
so I mean it it sounds like sound awesome, but
in the end it's awesome. Do you feel like you're
bonding more with your two other kids kind of right
now in this moment. Oh yeah, definitely much more. And
I feel like less bonding with the other one, which
feels weird. But she's getting the bonding which is more
important because she's the sole provider for that kid right now.

(44:47):
That's my wife is everything to that baby because she's
providing everything for it. Yeah, all of its nutrients. Well yeah,
but it was a hell of a process to get
that baby here though, totally crap. So what happened? If
you want to talk about it else? Do yeah? Okay,
a whole list of bullet points are what happened? You
can give me everything. I'm not going to push you tell.
I'll tell everything except for names, names and locations and

(45:09):
what about gender? Think? Yeah, girl, girl, she's a girl. Yes,
she's a girl. So we have two girls and one
boy and the family by yes, old this is a
boy and two younger girls. Okay, um, and I feel
for your father having all girls. Another side note, Yes, yeah,
he can talk about all the girl things all day long.
I'm sure. Yes. Um. So the way it all started
was so it was Christmas time, and it's the third kids,

(45:32):
so things a little bit different. And it's as far
as the birth thing goes because the third time, so
like you come at any point, which for any kid,
but I don't know all the logittics behind it, but like, hey,
your baby can come now. Because we kept having all
these doctors appointments like oh, it looks like it's gonna
be mid December, and then we go to appointment, they go, oh,
not quite yet, it's gonna be in maybe another week.
And then we go another appointment. Not quiet rat. It's

(45:53):
like waiting for um, you know, like a repairman to
come to the house. Oh, we're almost there. We're almost there,
and it never shows up, and you're like, when the
hell is the baby going to come? And then finally
we have this our final appointment, and it was like
I think December twenty eighth, and we go and she's like, oh,
looks like it's almost here. And I was like, well,
you know, what is it. She's like, well, you're not
really quite a centimeter dilated. She was, but I'm going
to scrape the membrane. Which it's a lot of information,

(46:15):
but they basically go up in there and they moved
some things around they kind of help get it out.
It's almost like a light induction. It's a full induction
or like inducing is when they will give you like
potosa and a couple other things that kind of like
push the baby out. So it's like a kind of
like a the appetizer to extracting a baby. Okay, so
it's a weird or like or like the first attempt
of trying to get it to come out. So they

(46:37):
did that and then she's like she she was, we
have another appointment for you. I think it was like
two days later, the thirtieth or thirty. First she's but
I have a feeling we're not going to see you.
Then we may see you sooner or no. My day
all messed up. But it was like we went in,
we went in one, We went in one day, and
she's like, I may not see you at the next point,
which is three days later. And then it was the
very next day we saw her, and we saw it,

(46:58):
but it was for labor. So she did this whole
scraping thing. And then that night at eleven forty five pm,
I hear her and the little of my sleep, she
goes up. My water broke and I was like, I
was like, huh, water broke. Then she was to go
back to bed. It's fine, and I was like, I
was like, look back then, it's fine. It's final. Let's
you know, if anything changes, and I was all right,

(47:19):
so I went back to wait wait, wait. So it's
not like the movies where it's like water broken, you
have to go right away. All that's all crap. Yeah,
that's I mean, maybe there's a version of it, but
it's not like that. It's like whoa, it's like a
gushing amount of water. It's like, we're gonna go now.
Like labor is a very long intensive process, and the
water breaking is different versions of it. So maybe somewhere
it's like splash and then it's like, oh, we gotta go.

(47:42):
But in a lot of the scenarios, water breaks, which
means that I guess, like that whole sack thing happens
and I don't want to grow shot, but that whole
thing happens, and then that means the baby starting to
then make its exit strategy. Got um. So it means
I mean it could be an hour, it could be
two hours, but it's all based on contractions. And I
think the rule is five one one. So if you

(48:03):
have a contraction for lasting five minutes for every hour
or something like that, where basically if the contractions are
closer together, which I can't feel, she feels and she
can tell me, and she has an app and she
tracks that. She okay, here's contraction one, and then she'll
time it and if it's within a certain window and
it happens a certain frequency, then it's time. Okay, now

(48:23):
it's time to go to the hospital. And then now
you're in a window of labor time, and labor time
can be thirty minutes to twelve hours two days. So
how long after her water breaking did you guys go
to wait to go to the hospital. So broke eleven
forty five pm and then she told me go back
to bed, and then she woke me up around one
thirty two am and she said, oh, it's really bad,
like it's a lot of pain, a lot of pain. Okay,

(48:44):
all right, what do you want to do? And I
guess a little backstart before that, my mom wistus to
fly in to watch my two current children that are
here on this earth, who have to be watched by somebody. Yeah,
because you can't take into the hospital. You can't, you know,
you have to stay home. Yeah, they don't occur children
to be there in the birthing room for all of
those reasons. Yeah, I get it. I understand that. And

(49:05):
so they're like, you know, so we have to have
someone to come watch them, and we don't live here.
We don't mean we live here. We don't have family
that lives here. If we're not from here, we're transplants.
And so we had to schedule that and figure out
who's gonna be. That's who's gonna come up to watch
our kids. And that was a whole another thing we
were dealing with two months beforehand, so we weren't sure,
like who's going to watch the kids? And then we're

(49:25):
trying to figure out between my wife's side of the
family or my side of the family, who's available and
when you're in. And the most difficult thing is we
don't know when the baby's coming, like we're talking about it,
you know, a moment ago. So I can't really give
them an exact date. Like you plan, are you playing
your trip for your birthday? You have a date you're
gonna get there to day you're gonna come home. But
this it's like, hey, you know it's gonna be in
this window, and we can't buy your flights yet, and

(49:46):
we don't know when it's gonna be, but can you
tell your work that you're gonna have to leave the
drop of a hat like those kind of things. So
it's a little difficult. So the best person for it
was my mom to come up. But she has a
thing where she's watching my grandmother, who is on her own,
So then you have to get somebody to come in
and watch my grandmother while she comes in and watches
our kids. So that was the logistics we had to
deal with. So my uncle had to come down to watch,

(50:08):
you know, his mom, which is my mom's mom, and
then she would come up to us. But they also
telling him like, also, I don't know when it's gonna be.
Could be on Christmas. I know you got your whole
thing going on. It could be it could be on
New Year's I don't know when it's gonna be. YadA yadah.
So then that was our choice, was my mom. It
was the one that worked, and then we did all
that logistics. So we booked her flight to come out
early before we thought was a date was gonna be

(50:31):
January six, Well, let's have her come out a week
in advance and you know, be here. And then we
got news that it could be closer to New Year's like, oh,
let's let's get her in after Christmas so my uncle
can do his thing, and then let's have her fly
in the twenty sixth. Well that's when Southwest had that
whole thing, all the cancel flights and all this crap.
And I saw it because the next morning, I'm like,
are you're coming in? And then I looked like that
morning at like two am, and I'm like, oh no, yeah.

(50:54):
I was like, already are we stressed about having this
someone come? Have someone come watch our kids for a
baby that could come in any moment. Now we don't
have anyone to watch our kids, and maybe they can
come in any moment. We don't know when she can
get here, because they were saying delays, we're gonna go
all way up until the end of the week, and
I'm like, holy crap. I was like, so we're already
We've been stressed this whole time, for like the last
three months about all of this, and then the moment

(51:15):
finally comes. We thought we'd have it all buttoned up
and then it flips on us again and we're like,
what the's going on right now? It was so stressful.
And then the moment we were able to book a flight,
then I booked a flight for December thirty. First, I'm like, okay, cool.
I was like, just keep that damn thing in you.
Whatever you gotta do, Like, don't do anything that you
that you would do in the past to try to
get it to come out. Do everything. And that's the opposite.
I try to keep that damn thing in you because

(51:36):
this is this is our only option to watch the kids.
And then so then on that early morning it was
basically the night of the thirtieth, eleven PM going into
December thirty. First morning at two am, that's when she's like,
oh my god, it's coming. Oh my god, it's coming.
I can't hold it any longer. M's flight is eight
hours away of a landing in Nashville, and I'm like,
just eight more hours. Hold it in. I gotta pick

(51:57):
her from the airport, like come on. Yeah. She's like,
I put them in so much pain. I can't do anymore,
and I feel guilty, and I'm like I'm like, all right, crap,
here we go. I was like, who we gonna find
to watch our kids at two in the freaking morning? Yeah,
well I take you to the hospital. So then we
start calling who used to be a nanny that used
to watch our kids, who's like our sitter here and
there when we need to do things like if we

(52:18):
want to have a date night, or if we need
them to go to doctors, depployments, whatever. We kept calling her,
but she's twenty four. Oh yeah, she's either out or
passed out at a it was a Friday night or
something about, like, yeah, it was one of those things.
Trying to call her over and over and over and over.
She didn't answer a text or didn't answer and then
we're like, oh, crap, wass Maybe we talked to our neighbors.
They said that they would help out. Call them. They're

(52:38):
not answering, they're not no one's responding, And I was
I was like, let's try this. I was like, just
for kicks, I was like, she's twenty four, I'm like
FaceTime her. She's always facetiming people. Maybe the sound of
the FaceTime ring will hit her in her drunken stupor
to wake up versus her ring tone or the vibration whatever,
And sure enough FaceTime she responded immediately, and I was like,

(52:59):
oh yes, and we're like, hey, so um, this is
having right now, and she's like, oh my gosh, I'll
be there in like an hour. So then I'm like, okay,
now you get a hold on another hour. Can you
do this? So we start packing the bag, get every ready,
keep not saying that the kids they're asleep, still, try
to keep them relaxing, common they have no idea. And
then so she comes in and boom, and we pack

(53:19):
up my truck and drive out at three in the
morning and head to the hospital. And then we get
to the hospital and do that whole thing. And you
get to at four in the morning and no one's
really there, and it's New Year's Eve, so it's you know,
it's I think it was a Saturday, was a news eve,
so it's short staffed, it's a holiday, nobody's there. It's
possibly a lot of the which we'll get to it
a second, the second stringers, not the a team. Yeah,

(53:42):
not saying it wasn't a team there, because there was,
but you get a lot of that, you know, because
it's the holiday, it's the weekend. It's that's how it
is an in the industry. You got the people trying
to make a name for themselves coming into work and
I'm like, great, cool, and here we go, here we go.
But it's my third kids, so I'm not too nervous,
but I'm just nervous about all the circuit stances around it. Yeah.
So we get to the hospitals four in the morning.

(54:03):
They started doing all the check in, triage, you get
to the room, all that kind of stuff. And then
following Elce we get settled. She's fine, She's in labor,
but it's not like a lot of pain. She's getting
through it. And I'm really hungry. We haven't eaten anything
since yesterday dinner. Like god, I'm so hungry. And I
was like, she can't eat anything because they want to
allow it based on you know, she's having she's having labor.
You can't eat all you can have his jello and
soup and water. Oh my gosh, I can't imagine. It's awful.

(54:24):
So I'm I'm gonna go down to the You mind
if I go down to the cafeteria and get something.
I'm like, I'm really hungry. I'm willing to fight it
with you, and I eat. She goes, no, you need
to eat, because then you become an ass, become a jerk.
Like I need you to be on your best behavior
and be here for me and have the energy, So
go get some food from me. I'm like, you're right,
I need to be here a needy present. Need you
have the energy. So let me get some food. Go

(54:45):
downstairs with the cafeteria. And again it's Saturday, so it's
not full staff. It's not fresh food. It's food from
the night before, the breakfast from yesterday, which I found
out in a very terrible way. Oh, go to get
the food. I order it, and I could tell it's
all crapped me yesterday because it's in like buckets over

(55:05):
like a heated lamp. And I'm like, but I was
so hungry and I was so tired, I wasn't making
rational decisions. I almost got sushi, which should have been
stupid too, because I would probably have been just as bad,
if not worse. So I get my food to go
back to the room and I eat it and eat
the grits. I feel like it's fine, making okay, but
I eat this like pork sausage and it was fine,
but I felt like something was off. But then I'm
just not thinking. So we're doing the whole labor thing

(55:27):
and everything's all good, and then we get to a
point where then she can't handle the pain anymore and
she's like, I need an epidural. Like, all right, we'll
get the lady in for an epidural. She comes in. Hey,
my name's nurse Da Da Da Da. Won't let you
know off the bat, I'm in nurse in training. This
is my seventeen time doing it, seventeen time doing it,
so I used to be a triage nurse, so I

(55:48):
do have experience, but I want to you know, this
is not I'm in training. And if you don't know
what epidural is, which you may know, or oh yeah, yeah,
it goes into your spine, which you don't want anybody
in training doing that, okay, because if you if you go,
if you're like a hair off, you'd be paralyzed. You
could die, which she tells us, She's like, here's the symptoms,
and I have to say this, Um, you could die

(56:09):
or you could be paralyzed for life. Is that okay?
And I'm just like, oh my God, it's a tradey.
Well that's hard, Like that's her for a woman. I
obviously have not been in that position, but to be
told that and you're in the most pain you've probably
been in your entire life. Yeah, and you're like, well, yeah,
I want it. No, I don't want to die, you know,
I don't want to be paralyzed. But it doesn't hend
like I have a good option right now. I have

(56:30):
a choice because you're here and it's a holiday and
there's someone else coming. Yeah. So I was like, good God.
So we're like okay, sure, and she's okay, Well, I
have to wait for Tom to show up. And I
was like, well, who's Tommy? Well, Tom's Tom is like
the supervisor or whatever. Yeah, he's been doing for fifty years.
And so we're waiting for Tom. And so Tom is,
you know, probably strapped thin as well because it's the
holidays and that kind of stuff. So we start playing

(56:52):
music and because I always when we have when we
do the birthing, I always have music because I feel
like it's so awkward if it's silence in there. And
one of the nurses was like, oh my god, you
have great music. You're playing I love the playlist and
the music. She goes. It's always so awkward. Well, I
don't want to say it's awkward. I'm like, no, it's awkward.
You come into a room where a woman's breathing heavily
and there's a husband they're freaking out or or awkwardly
just sitting there, and you need something to break the

(57:12):
ice or make the room a little bit more fun.
And I've always fel like music as the best way
to do that. Okay, pro tip if you're gonna have
a child, bring in a Bluetooth speaker and have not
necessarily have music ready. If you want to have a playlist,
it's fine. Or now there's baby music. Yeah, So I
just play all the songs my wife likes, and I

(57:32):
play albums that we like and whatever. She's Casey Musgraves,
we played a little bit of that. We played, you know,
justin Timberlakes, suit like all kinds of stuff, classic rock everything,
and they were just loving it. And then Tom comes
in and I'm so because I'm so nerved with stuff,
I started playing David Bowie's song You may not know it,
but it goes this is ground control to major tom
um step in through the room and as right as

(57:54):
he was walking in, I play that and he walked
into it and he was like, okay, guys, all right.
But I felt like that had dad jokes going. You
had dad jokes on cue on cue with music like
I was on it. It was a moment where I
felt like, God, it was awesome. I'm proud of myself
here for this. Yea um. But yeah, so that's a
tangent on that. So he comes in and he comes in.
He could give oh, he could care less. So he

(58:17):
goes and sits on a couch behind me kind of
like almost you're sitting there like ah, all right, you
got it right, And she's ever there going like okay.
She's like shaking and putting the needle in, and then
they go to like put it in, do it, and
he goes, now you want to go a little higher here,
and like it was like they're working on a car,
and it's just like if something happens, it happens, and
then we'll just fix it. Like this is not a car,
it's my wife, Like you told me, the last thing

(58:37):
is she could die or be paralyzed. You're gonna pierce
her spine? Please, don't ep this up, but I'm trying to.
But I don't want to exude that energy or even
say my wife so, and I don't want to. I
don't want to make her nervous because I'm sure she
deals with people because it's their seventeen time, so I'm
sure sixteen times before that, especially number one, I was
gonna say, could you imagine being when she walks in,
She's like, this is my first time. I feel like, no,

(59:00):
get the dot. I believe in what you're doing, but
absolutely not, absolutely not, no chance in hell. And it's
funny because fast forward and it's another slight tangent. Our
chiropractor just had a baby, like two days before our baby.
And he goes, yeah, we had this nurse that came in.
She said that it was a trainee and dada for epidurro,
and I told her to get out because it's our
first kid. I'm like, oh my god, you probably had

(59:20):
and they went to the same hospital. I'm like, you
probably got our training. I was like, we were fine.
The third kid. He goes again, not our first kid.
I messed around with that, and I'm a chiropractor and
I know about spines and he's getting the hell out
or she's getting the hell out. So, yeah, she's doing this.
I don't want to upset her. I don't want to
freak her out, because if we freak her out, you
put it under pressure, she will mess up. So I
just wanted to keep her confident. I was like, what's
your favorite song? And I played her favorite song. It's
something to keep her happy and like cool and calm.

(59:42):
A lot happening in this birth room round, yes, and
I want her to just do it right. And then
they go to do it, and I've seen it happen
twice now the epidur also, I know it should look
like they turned around there was freaking blood every Oh
my god, I would have passed out. I would have
been like, no, absolutely not. I could tell she did
a terrible job and had to poke multiple times or whatever.
And I was like, oh my god, what is happening

(01:00:03):
right now? And my wife's like, she goes, is everything fine?
But yeah, having's fine. It looks great because I don't
want to her to freak out. You're like internally freaking out,
but outside I need to be completely calm, keep my
composure because if I'm not calm, then the energy of
the room is not calm, and then they're gonna kill
my wife and then I'm gonna be on my own

(01:00:25):
with three kids. So f that. So I had to
be as calm as possible and I was, and they
did the epidural and that was all good, and everything
is fine. But go into the birthing and then I
would think I thought maybe it was maybe about three
hours later, we start to get into like serious pushing time.
And then our doctor comes in and she's the freaking
absolute greatest ob g I N doctor, which she does more.

(01:00:47):
I mean, she does birthing, but she's an OBI doctor,
so she does it all. You know. Yeah, girls, you
know I'm talking about yes, which I learned for the
first time this this time around. I was in the
waiting room and I was like, why are these older
women here? Are they having babies? Like, what's going on
here in my life? Goes No, it's a vagina doctor.
She checks vaginas just not just burst. God, they don't
just do birth. Yeah, she could checks them all. I

(01:01:08):
would come here too. I would love to share. If
I'm fact with you, my ob gyn, who I go
see every time I'm home, is actually the same guy
who gave who my mom gave birth with all four
of our girls. Oh yeah, it's so cool. So I
still go to him because he's so good. Yeah, very
good apparently. Yeah that's that's a cool for him unless
we really cool perspective wise, like I birthed you and

(01:01:29):
I come and see you, yep, all down the line.
I believe my sister, she's the only one in our
family that's had kids besides my mom. Is she also
gave her niece and my niece and nephew with him
in the family doctor for you, Like, if I ever
get right now, I'm gonna have to be at home
to have birth with him. You have to go back
home to do it, and our insurances crap. It's Blue Cross,

(01:01:50):
Blue Shield of Illinois and we're in Tennessee, so we
had to pay out of state fees because it's cheaper
for the company. I want to getting all that crap
so you can. Basically, my whole point is you can
bet birth your child anywhere and it'll cost a crappola
because we have crappy insurance. Lovely, So go to Kansas
City and do it, or sorry, witch Tall, Kansas and
have your baby there because it won't matter where you
have it because they will be covered properly. True side note,

(01:02:10):
um welcome. And then that was another thing that sound
very exciting to have a child at scoop. But I'm
not sure how I feel. No, it's cool, it's great,
like no, like no, I'm not being so castlic like
it three times now, so apparently I enjoy it. Every
time I heard these breath things stories my friends just
have it, I'm like, I really don't like the idea

(01:02:30):
of all of this. Yes, sounds like a lot. Well,
I mean, you could just have if you want to
have a kid, you could have one to do a
C section and it's like an operation. You're in and out,
you're done. Recovery process is a pain in the ass,
but it's much of an easier day of process. But
so anyway, so we're gonna doing the birth and it's
the third one and it maybe our last one. And
I've seen them all. I've watched them. I've seen the
whole process and it's so fascinating and I think it's

(01:02:52):
so cool and I think it's so like I I
look at women, I'm like, good god, you guys are
so incredible that you're you have this superpower, you grow
an effing human being in your body and then you
push it out and then it grows up to become
a huge an adult. Like that's something that guys can't do.
And we and like we are a part of the process.
Of course, we're a key piece, but we can't do

(01:03:14):
the end result of making it like we started, but
we can't finish it and we can't do it. And
it's just like, it's so incredible. So the nurse who's
helping out because it's now the part where the it's dilating,
the centimeters are growing and the baby's heads starting to
come out, and she's like, hey, do you want to
do you want to see it? I have a mirror
I can slide over for you to watch it. She goes.
I would say ninety eight percent of women don't want
to watch it, she goes, but there's that you know,

(01:03:35):
two percent doesn't want to watch it. And she's like,
I'm fine, And I was like, dude, babe, I was like,
it's gonna be the last one. I was like, you
should see it, and like like not, I'm totally serious.
When you should don't see the whole birthing process. But
at least look at what you're able to do, because
when you're doing it and that part of the process,
it's pushing. So you're in this stage where the contractions
are closer, and every time there's a contraction to get

(01:03:57):
the baby to come out, the woman has to like
almost lift her head up. So my job is to
hold her neck up because you have to hold the
head because she's having to push, and the nurse has
the legs up on stirrups and she's down there trying
to help with the baby. And so my job is
to help hold my wife's hand so she can squeeze
it for support and for the pain release. And I
have to hold her head up because she has to
hold her head up for ten seconds ten Mississippi breathing

(01:04:20):
while pushing. And I'm like, you should totally see it,
Like it's really fascinating that you can do this, and
if it's your last time doing it, you're not gonna
watch videos on YouTube like see you push the baby
like this is so cool. And she's like, you know
what iff it slide that me run over and then
and so she saw it, she's like wow, and as
she's pushing. I can see her looking at it going like,
holy crap, I'm doing this, and I was like, yes,

(01:04:40):
And I feel it was more motivating and an experience
for her that this is the last one she got
to see her push it. She didn't do the she
didn't see the whole process, but for a good you know,
I would say twenty thirty pushes, which is probably like
an hour. She saw her push the baby from where
there was a little bit ahead to like almost the
full head coming, and I was like, look, you can
do it, Like this is so cool. Like I always
remember this moment that this isn't something you're able to

(01:05:00):
do and we can't. So whenever men put women down,
say after you, dude, like you can't make a baby,
you can't handle that crap. Yeah, so she said, so
it's really cool. So she's able to see that. Doctor
comes in the whole birthing thing and I cut the
midcle cord. Welcome to the the planet Earth, here you are.
And then the baby comes out. They clean it up

(01:05:22):
to a certain degree, do the skin to skin time,
and I start having this like massive headache and I'm
like God, and I'm like, maybe it's because I haven't
had a lot of water, and I haven't eaten since
my cravvy breakfast at seven am. And now it's almost
two pm. I'm like, man, I got a really bad headache.
Oh then my mom got she flew in flight, came in.
Everything's good. My wife's friend, I'm going to go pick
her from the airport to help us out, and brought

(01:05:43):
her to my house, which was nice, huge help. And
but now I need to go back to the house
babies out to get my mom because she was gonna
come earlier. We're gonna show her the routines and show
her all the stuff. You know. It's she doesn't she
hasn't seen my kids like a year, so she didn't
know what we do, bedtime routines, food, what do they eat?
All those like little things you know, like a dog.
You know, I have a dog. There's a routine things
you do. You have to explain it to a dog sitter. Yep,

(01:06:05):
so the same thing. Go to home. I have to
go home and tell them I'm all about it. So
we're so we um have the have the baby wait
a little bit. My mom's all good. But my ham
coming home and help you out, mostly with like routine
for a nighttime, and um, I'll bring you some food
for the kids and everything, and um we're doing this
and I'm like, okay, all right, baby, you're good. Now

(01:06:25):
it's like four o'clock, so yeah, you're good, You're good.
My headache becomes even worse. It's super strong, and I
start having that feeling, you know, the feeling of like
throwing up or you feel something the back of your throat,
and I'm like, am I gonna throw up? And I'm
like no, I just have a headache. I just I
just need water. So I started drinking a lot of water.
Driving home, I'm about maybe ten minutes from the house
and all of a sudden, I have this feeling. I'm like,
oh my god, I'm gonna I'm gonna throw up. I

(01:06:46):
was like, what the hell's wrong me. I get to
a turn. I turn and I was like, I can't
make it. I can't. I can't make it home. I
was like, I can make a home and throw up.
I'll be fine. And I was like I can make
it home. And I was like, make a home. I'm breathing.
I was like, oh no, I can't make it. I turn.
It's a it's a red it's about to turn red
on the red light. And I pull over into like
the back of a Jiffy Lube and I and I
throw up in my mouth before I get to the
Jiffy Lube and I have to hold it up my mouth,

(01:07:07):
pull in park and park as fast as I can.
It's not like five thirty because it's kind of dark
and it's behind like a restaurant, and they just start
blowing chunks in the back of a Jiffy Lub parking lot.
And it's New Year's Eve. Yeah, so people think I'm drunk.
And I hear a guy going, oh, I'm like, no,
no, no no, no, food poisoning. I had some crappy food,
Like you really think i'd be driving right now. No, no, dude,
I just came from the hospital of food boysoning. I

(01:07:28):
feel terrible and the so then I'm worried that I'm
gonna get pulled over for a DUI or something, and
so I'm paranoid. I'm throwing up in the back of
a parking lot and I'm like, holy crapping. And so
I get home and then I get home and then
I have to like I get home and you know
how when you throw up, you just it and you
probably feel like at this point, I've had no sleep,
I've had an hour of sleep. But then foo food poisoning.

(01:07:48):
But then I feel it's like such a woos. So
my wife just pull push the human being out of
her body and they can't really bitch complain to her
about my food poisoning because she's a birth to human.
But I want to complain. I want to feel bad,
but I can't feel back because so it's like I
don't mean crap, like this is nothing. So then I
tell I tell my wife. I'm like, hey, I just
threw up, and she's like, what the hell? And I
explained the food. She's like, yeah, you weren't looking good.

(01:08:10):
I could tell something's wrong with you. I'm like, yeah,
that's what I'm janis. And she's like, just stay home
for a couple of hours because now the baby's you know, out,
get your mom set up, do your thing. And here
I am at home, lang on the floor. Okay, mom,
so what you do this? Sorry? Trying to breathe through
telling and exactly, and then I throw up again, and
then I go take a shower to clean up, and
then it would end up being two hours or three hours.

(01:08:32):
And then my wife is now texting me because she
hasn't eaten anything since yesterday's dinner as well, and now
she's hungry and she all she wants to sushi because
she hasn't had sushi in nine months. And so I
was like, but now it becomes like, it's okay, take
your time to get down. I'm hungry, go pick up
the food. I'm hungry, Go order something please. And it's
Newars even downtown Nashville, and there's and so I have
to then navigate back into downtown Nashville as they're doing

(01:08:55):
all these road closures and there's traffic everywhere, and there's
drunk people everywhere, and I'm like, oh my god, this
is absolute mayhem. And so and then I'm also nervous
because I'm not feeling well. I'm gonna get pulled over
for and they're gonna think I'm drunk. And now because
as New yar As even all it's crap, and I'm
just like, all it's crap is going through my head.
I'm like a continued amount of stress. But I can't

(01:09:15):
show my cards because my wife went through a lot
of crap so it's just like it was. Oh my god,
it sounds like in the forty eight hours of this
all happened. It was like everything bad and good that
could happen possibly happened. Oh yeah it could. Then everything
bad that happens, something even greater happened. So it's just
what I'm saying, bad and good, but like makes it
all in one. Normally it's just like forty eight hours

(01:09:36):
of bad or forty eight hours good. You got bad
and good in forty eight hours. My goodness, it was
a whirlwind. But baby is here. Mom is healthy, baby
is healthy. All is good. Yes, that's the most important thing, too,
is yes, baby self, wife was healthy. Well. I love
hearing all of that in the story of craziness. I'm
sad that things went kind of wrong, but happy to

(01:09:57):
hear everybody's good, Yes, thank you, and here feeling better.
Why baby, you're doing great? Yeah, all good and healthy. Yeah.
All the adjusting is happening now. Yeah, so that's where
we're at now. Yeah, the acclimating to the new life
with three children. Well, I cannot wait to keep hearing.
It sounds like pure fun chaos. Yeah, it's fun for
you because you're not loving it. Yep, I gonna go

(01:10:18):
home and binge watch my movie. Yes, you can watch
James Mom from top to bottom. Oh man, Well, we're
gonna have more stories it at a different point in time,
I'm sure. So we'll go ahead and get into this
next one. Lunchbox is coming in at number four. He
finally got his roof repaired. And you know, I bet
he's pretty proud of himself, or at least his wife
was very proud of him for doing this. So I

(01:10:39):
want to talk about the last time you were genuinely
proud of yourself for doing something not work related. Getting
a minivan. Okay, it was inevitable with three kids. Yeah,
we had a truck. It's a five seater, three car
seats in the back. Wait, hell on, do you still
have your trucks? So my truck. I think that was
the That was the debate for a very long time.
I was gonna say, I have not seen a minivan
out and I still see the truck. Yes, yes, So

(01:11:00):
it was a debate of well, we're gonna get a minivan,
you have to get rid of a truck, yea, because
of the financial side of it. And I was I'm
not getting rid of truck. I've always wanted a truck,
and I felt so hard to get that dang truck.
And then so we for a long time of conversation
and compromisations. I don't know i's a word, but who
gives a crapm compromising and all that. We finally were like, look, babe,

(01:11:20):
it's gonna be easier on you because I remember the
other two kids, especially the infant. If we drive anywhere,
the infant needs a lot of attention, and if we
have a five seater with three car seats and her
in the front, it's much harder for her to manage
and deal with the infant. Other two are easier plussing.
You got the one of them that may squeeze the
arm or pull or hurt the infant unintentionally. So you're
about to tell me that you can vince your wife

(01:11:41):
to get rid of her car for a minivan. Yeah,
so we got rid of her Prius, which that she's
had since twenty eleven. It's like her baby, and it's
in great condition. It's awesome, Cuba. You're telling me right
now because this segment happened a few months ago where
you told those she didn't want to quit her job,
and now she also lost her car. But I got

(01:12:04):
her a minivan. That's awesome. It's got leather seeds staying
now like it's a proud thing. But I do not
think she's gonna be happy about this. No, she's well
now that we've now that we have it, and she
understands the convenience of it and the and the benefits
of having the minivan and all things that I pitched her,
and it's coming to fruition and it's all great. Yeah,
you keep talking yourself into that, suba. You're talking yourself

(01:12:25):
into that. By the way, it's a proud moment that
I got the minivan that we needed, and I wanted
I feel for your wife right now because I heard
all about this birthing story, the job and now the car.
But she loves it. And then she was like, no,
you know, you're right, it's time to get rid of
the priests and let someone else enjoy her. I was like,
you're right, you're right, it is your poor wife. I
think I needed to go check on your wife, genuinely do.

(01:12:47):
I'm a little concerned. It's happy, she's finding it's good,
trust me. Oh my god. Yeah, Okay, you know what
next time? You know how lunchbox brings audio of his wife,
I need audio of yours. I need like proof of
life happiness. Yeah, yeah, that's her right now. She's gotten
rid of a lot of things. I'm feeling for her
right now. What are you proud about it? Morgan? It

(01:13:10):
was like, dang it, I got called out. Well nothing
near a minivan situation. But I made hot chocolate and
whipped cream from scratch, okay, and that was very exciting
for him. Saw that on your Instagram? Yeah? Yes, made
whipped cream from scratch. Yes, and the hot chocolate, both
of which I have never done before in my life.
So the hot chocolate, I'm not trying to downplay it.

(01:13:32):
I don't seem like it's as impressive because you just
it's like chocolate and like the milk. Well, no, okay,
so let me tell you most of it. It's most
Both two of these things are not hard. Okay. What
cream to me seems like it'd be very difficult. No, okay,
so let me tell you. The hot chocolate is cocoa.
It's sugar, vanilla and milk okay, and chocolate chips. Okay.
That's it. Five ingredients and you basically melt that all together.

(01:13:52):
But I had just never I'd always just bought the
packets convenience. Yeah, yeah, so I never knew that you could,
Like essentially, I just never knew you can make this
from catch until Yeah, recently I've been obsessed with hot
chocolate and then whipped cream. The only three ingredients you
need are heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla. So but
then how do you make it to where it's like
out of the candle? So heavy whipping creamy port in able,
and you just keep whipping it, just keep going, keep

(01:14:14):
adding sugar until it starts getting and it's a hot sugar,
a whole lot of sugar and home my whipping cream. Okay,
we just keep going until it keeps keeps whipping, and
once it's starting to get that whipp texture, you had
a little bit of vanilla, and keep whipping it a
little bit more and there you have it, whipped cream.
Literally heavy whipping cream turned whipped. That is so cool
and I'm also just so envious of you to have
the time to be able to do that. Yeah, I

(01:14:38):
was like, I didn't buy it anymore, but I'll learn
how to make a new thing, fuller opposite our life
right now, completely opposite. Yeah, and that's why it's awesome.
I love that for us, Yes, I love it. I
love it more for you too, yes, yeah, oh yeah,
but I was listen, I was really I get proud
of myself anytime I can make something that I never

(01:15:00):
only thought to make. Yes, it's the best time putting that. Yeah,
because because it has been so convenient for you to
just the powder and the marshmallows and move on. Yeah.
Because my mom when this Homeway whipping room is like
my mom's like our families Okay, yeah, she makes homemade
I've seen and suf and every time she teaches me,
she's like, Morgan, you sure remember this is like what
we did before grocery stores had all of these different things. Correct, Yes,

(01:15:24):
And so she teaches me these things and I get
reminded that, you know, it's not that impressive, it's just
actually what they used to do. Well, I'm really glad
that both of us are proud of ourselves for things,
even if they're very different. Yes, okay, we're just moving
forward from its scuba. Yeah, I love that. That's what
life is. Yeah, Yes, that's it. And at that number
three spot speaking of kids and talking about Scuba Steven

(01:15:46):
his life. Eddie and Amy also shared some kids stories
recently of crazy things that have happened in their lives
with their kids, and you guys love hearing kids stories.
So this is definitely a big one up there. And
I want to talk about I went to Atlanta this weekend.
I saw that weekend. Yeah, never been to Atlanta before, Okay, cool,
and it was a really cool experience. I didn't know
what to expect. Okay, it's just a big city and

(01:16:09):
I had the best time. It looks like you did. Yeah, yeah,
just exploring the city. Ate a lot of good donuts
and also crazy enough, President Biden was also there at
the same time. I was, oh, wow, was it crazy
because like crows off like blocked like blocks. Yes, and
we saw it. We saw his like vehicle. Yes, that's
what it's called. I was like, I don't know what
it's called. I want to say procession, Like yeah, yes,

(01:16:31):
all the different black dot SUVs and the long car
and everything crazy motorcadd it like blocked so much traffic
and thankfully we weren't dealing with traffic. We were like
bopping around some Bars. Yeah, but it felt so weird
to be there while president was there because it was
m OK Day and huge for Atlanta. Yeah, and obviously
that's where things happened with MLK, so that's why he
was there. But it was just really cool. It felt

(01:16:52):
really weird to be in the same place that the
president was at the same time. Oh yeah, it's very
weird because I lived in San Francisco and it would
happen a lot when they traveled. I think that was
when Brock Obama was president. I remember going to work
one day and I was driving down We're I always
driving and I couldn't. I was like, what the hell?
Were always police cars are everywhere? It must be a
murder or something. And I go over another block and
I still can't go down that block. And I went
over another block and I still like, what in the

(01:17:12):
hell is happening? And then I went around another block
and I finally got to go over and then I
had to go all the way down like you had
a major detour. And then you realize, oh, Barack Obama
is at the OMNI and there they square. That whole thing.
Isn't that crazy? Just and it makes the most sense
because he's a world leader, right, he's a president of
a whole country. But it's just crazy the security that

(01:17:32):
comes around that. I felt like it was a movie
I was seeing witness in real life. Yes, yeah, it
didn't feel real, very surreal. Yes, it's indifferent than like
when I went to Washington, DC, because like you see
the White House and you're like, oh, that's cool, but
it's I'm in a different city that I didn't plan
on seeing that. Yes, seeing that and like being there
where the president was. So aside from Atlanta being just
an awesome city to visit, was there initial like Oh,
I'm going there because I want to do this or

(01:17:54):
I want to see this. No, So my two of
my best friends moved there and I just went to
go visit him. And I was like, I've never been
to a end of before. So I packed up my
dog and one of my girlfriends end up coming along,
and we just went and went around. We went and
saw a stone Mountain Park, which is literally this giant
stone and they carved like a structure in it, which
I don't know why they carved a structure in it

(01:18:15):
never makes sense to me. Why would they ruin like
a really cool like original stone that's massive, but they
did you know, for humans? Yeah, yeah, but talk about
conspiracy theory. I'm pretty sure this is the next area.
Fifty one think inside that stone is definitely alien. There's
a hidden door and there's one hundred percent aliens inside.
There's like an elevator that goes like a thousand feet up.

(01:18:36):
Things huge, and it doesn't make any sense. Yes, I
don't think ever heard of it. It's called Stone Mountain
Park and it's a state park, so it is like
an official one, and I don't think people would travel
there just to go to that. It was just like
I wanted to just oh my god, what the hell
it's huge? Whoa. I wanted to like see and experience something.
I like going on hikes and seeing cool views, especially

(01:18:57):
when my dog comes along. And so this is where
we went. But I was just sitting there and I
was like, I just don't understand. I did not understand
what this place is. Probably not even a real stone.
It's probably like Hollywood where it's like it's got a
bunch of like things around it and like fabric fabric
to make it look like it's it's a rock. No,
it's entirely real. Wow. Okay, yeah, it's it's real, Like
we looked up facts and stuff at it. But all
I'm saying it is so large that this thing has

(01:19:19):
to be empty inside and there's aliens in there. Oh
yeah that's my conspiracy. Yeah, I'm with it. I'm all
about it. I need it, I love it. I want
more of it. Yeah, because it just like landed there,
you know what I mean, Like, how did this like
huge stone just be there? Yeah, and all of a sudden,
you know what I mean, Like and it's a state park,
it's protected. Yeah, exactly, there's something. There's something to it.
But yeah, it was a funny like Detro was like

(01:19:40):
we're gonna do this. Its like my friends that live
there were like, okay, sure whatever, why not, We'll do
it one time. That'll be it for them. Yes, And
so we went and it was a funny experience. It
wasn't like a state park where you go like, oh,
so beautiful. It was like, oh that was weird. Yeah,
that's what it was. You kind of have the also
like weird vibes being there. You feel something, I get you. Yeah. Yeah.
So and just the whole fact that we sculpted something

(01:20:01):
and it also feels weird. I'm like, whyouldn't you just
leave it as it was? Leave it yeah exactly, and
just make it a park exactly. So. But besides that, yeah,
it was awesome and we bopped around, went to some bars.
I got a lull too drunk on a Saturday night.
I gotta try some yummy donuts. I loved it up
and filming because that's they say that that's like the
filming mecca of our country, and you know, I didn't really.

(01:20:22):
We went to a lot of holiday weekend That's why
I never mind. I was going to say that's possible,
because we went into a lot of different pockets and
we didn't see it. We didn't even see like filming
set up anywhere, either like sets or anything like that.
I don't know. Holiday Hollywood, I love it. Whenever it's
a holiday, they're like, take the whole week off, we're
not doing anything. Hey, you know how I like that.
That's awesome, awesome. Yeah, Hollywood has a great scott. I
mean they have grueling schedules when they are working, yeah,

(01:20:44):
but they got a lot of time off if it's
a television show or it's whatever their productions. Thank you
for adding jealousy to my list of things today. Because
my friend David he is like an aspiring act or
whatever and he does voiceover is he actually has some
pretty good commercials that were in Super Bowls. Um. But
he was back in oc He's from that Seal Beach
which we're talking about earlier, which I love, and he
was flying I think he was from Chicago to back home,

(01:21:07):
one of the two. He lives in Chicago now. And
he met, you know, Zachary Levi, the actor he was
in Chozam or whatever. They were at a bar and
he was just like sitting there and he looks over
He's like, holy shit. And then he told me he's
like they had a twenty minute conversation just about life
and things, and then they got into like what you know,
what you know? What do you guys do and whatever?
And he's like told what he wants and he's like,
do you have any advice? But I hate to bug

(01:21:28):
your fast would just like like elevator pitch advice, like
what thing I should do? He was like, if you're
not Atlanta, you're wasting your time. Really, He's like, he's like,
if you're wanting to do you know, television shows, especially
if you have a want to do the world of
like the CW, like like what he would do, like
flash that kind of thing, or any kind of acting.
He was if you're not in Atlanta, you're waiting. Now
I'm listening. Okay, I'm going back to Atlanta. Now. Atlanta's

(01:21:50):
got all the very very city, the city, but the
outskirts of it as well. I mean, they do a
lot of film in there. It's it's become what was
supposed to be Orlando was the East Hollywood and that
the funct that went away in the nineties. Atlanta has
become the East Hollywood. And he goes, if you're not there,
you waste your time, dude, because that's where you got
to be for anything production, TV movies, voiceovers, all that Atlanta, Georgia. Okay, well,

(01:22:12):
if you see me in Atlanta more weekends, you know why?
Exactly me too. They're like, what are you doing here?
You see it for sales side on my front yard.
I'm going to Atlanta. We're just all lave. Yeah, it was.
It's a really cool city. And I do suggest if
you if you stop through there or anything, definitely check
it out. Okay, cool, So I did. I did go there,
but just more crazy that I got to experience in
the city with the president. Yeah, that's very cool. It's

(01:22:34):
very surreal, very and in the seat and not just
to know about it, because I'm sure it was like
on the news or topic of conversation or whatever, but
you saw it. That's really cool. It was just a
wild experience. Yeah, So all around a really cool weekend.
And of course I got to bring my dog and
you know, I love that. Okay, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah.
And at the number two spot was Old Dominion. They
stopped by and they performed one of their new songs,

(01:22:55):
memory Lane. They also performed their first and last hit,
you know Lasses and the latest it not their last ever,
and they just talked about a lot of things in
charit this is where we can start, no, and also
that there's a joke that one of the guys made
in this interview. It's one hundred percent age joke. There
is no feud between them and another band. Just fyi

(01:23:16):
social media. You know, we like to believe everything we hear.
They love those headlines. Yes, yeah, so FYI that is true.
But this is a really great interview. But more importantly,
the performance is so awesome and you can check that
out on YouTube at Bobby Bones Show. And then at
the number one spot, we're gonna talk about being heroes
because Eddie was a hero. He broke up a fight
between kids. Oh yeah, and he doesn't think he's a hero,

(01:23:37):
but everybody else thinks he's a hero. And I don't know,
have you ever saved anyone? Have you ever been a hero?
Trying to think about that. I mean, I've done the
opposite of like, well, that's not something to be brought up.
That is not what I asked think about. Oh my god,
my life between like age thirteen to twenty four, a

(01:23:58):
lot of crazy things. Well you know, I'll let you think.
I haven't been a hero to humans. Okay, but I've
been a hero to a lot of animals. Okay, yeah,
I could speak on a too yet. Yes, I've saved
a lot of animals. I've at least five or six
docks from the side of the road a lot. I
keep a leash and treats in my car in case
I ever run into one. Okay, and cats those are

(01:24:18):
harder to catch, though, Okay, I save a lot of turtles.
I helped them cross the road. But I have a
very traumatizing experience with the turtle. Okay, I've gotten out.
I had pulled over. I saw the turtle and it
was on kind of like this big street. It wasn't
like a highway, but a big street crossing multiple lanes.
And I had pulled over and I as I got

(01:24:39):
out and I was like walking toward it, another person
drove by and I heard the whole crunch and everything happened.
It was. It was the most traumatizing experience in my life.
Seconds from saving it, I turned around and I just
started bawling, and I was like, that is awful, and
I literally cursed the car. I was like, you, I
saw that from like a mile away. How could you?
It was a huge turtle, like it wasn't like a
small one. It must have done it on purpose too.

(01:25:01):
I saw a union, let's get it. Oh my god.
So traumatizing. So but still I have saved a lot
of turtles, dogs and cats. Yes. So yeah, so your
ratio like you have a higher wind column versus a
lost column. Yeah, but that one's pretty bad. Now. I'm
really scared to get out for turtles because I have
I have trauma of that happening. Yeah, oh my goodness,
I've never seen it happen like that in person. I've

(01:25:22):
saved a lot. I've had some where where I was like,
oh I should I should say that, and one time
I turned around and it was unsavable at that time.
I've never had it happened right in front of my face.
Oh my goodness, to be awful. Yeah. And my mom
watched somebody hit a dog and she helped get the
dog to the emergency vet because it was still alive
and it was okay if somebody's pet and it ended
up being okay, and she helped save it. That's awesome. Yeah,

(01:25:45):
but like screw the person who hit him exactly, Like,
come on, you not that paying it. I mean people
are not paying this and drive anymore, which works the
hell out of not listen, I swear it out of
the way for squirrels. Like yeah, I'm that person. Yeah,
I mean I'm the kind of person in my home,
I see a spider and I take a cup and
I will put over it, slid a piece of paper
underneath it, put the cup over and then throw it
outside like they were here before us. Oh my god. Yeah,

(01:26:05):
and they didn't do anything wrong. He's in my house,
it's probably oh my god, what am I doing here?
I want to get out? And did you squash it? Yeah?
I'm trying to get better about that because spiders is
another one of my fears. Okay, and I don't like
killing them. Yeah, but I get very afraid. It's like
a fear based like hit instead of like and then
I'm like instant regret, yes, reaction. Yeah, but if I can,
even though the suckers move really fast, yes, to do

(01:26:27):
If I can't, I try and save it. Yes, you
should definitely try to save it, especially if it could
be pregnant. You don't know it's pregnant, babies come out. Yes,
my dad did that before in the garage. It went everywhere.
My dad was like, I've never seen anything so awful
in my life. Well, no, I'm not seeing it. You
just killed a mother and all the babies. I don't
have a mother now. Yeah, but like he didn't know,

(01:26:49):
like you know what I mean, don't Yeah, yeah, but like,
oh my gosh, so very scary, very scary, Okay, because
those are mine and I don't have those sparked anything
for you for me? Hero wise, God, I wish i'd
I saved a dog, like, not saved it from like anything,
but I saved it. Um, so I guess I'll tell
I'll tell you, and you tell me if it's a
heroic thing. But no, I don't think it's like heroic

(01:27:09):
like wearing a cape that kind of thing. But so,
when I was living in la I was by myself
for the first six months, and I was lonely, and
I was like, I need like I missed my dogs already.
I had two dogs that were up in the bay
with my was who my fiance at the time, my wife,
And I was like, I'm just She's like, well, she's like, well,
just maybe go to the shelter and look around. And
I'm like, you can't take me to the shelter and
look around exactly. Yeah, I will play with all of them.

(01:27:33):
And I end up taking all of them my talk
car and take them home. And so we did one
of those things. We went to the I went to
the Sea Maine Society, which she came down to visit
and saw a dog there and I was like, and
just immediately the song was playing in the Arms of
an Angel and she was in the back of the
crate and she was like, and there's like not looking anyone.
And then I kind of got near it and she

(01:27:53):
did one of those things where I peeked over and
looked at me, and then we just had instant connection.
And she slowly walked up and the guy came around
the corner and he's like whoa, and I was like what.
He goes, that dog doesn't That dog's awful. That dog
doesn't want anything to do with anyone. It stays in
the corner. It's like petrified, it's mean everything. He's like,
I can't believe you got it to come to you

(01:28:13):
is what you do? And like, I didn't do that.
I just walked up, walked by the cage, and this
is what happened. He goes, what do you want to Petter?
And I was like yeah. I was like yeah, Petter,
and he goes, well, this is Miriam, and I was like, Miriam.
They always have the weirdest names. Miriam. That's why no
one likes this dog. He's Miriam. They gave it a
name for a dog that should never And it was like, okay, whatever.
So I start petting in and it starts licking my hand.

(01:28:33):
It's a little shaking you know, because it's still whatever.
I was like, what's the dog story? He goes, well,
he goes. So the original family had her and they
had kids, and she was a little hyper and was
jumps a lot, and I was like, okay, well that's
what dogs do. Sounds like a dog, a dog with
They don't get a dog if you don't want dogs
that jump. And so they jumped a lot. It was
a little hyperson Then they brought it to us, and

(01:28:54):
another family adopted it, and then the same kind of thing,
and then the third family adopted it, and then it
was aggressive. I'm like, well, yeah's aggresive because every time
it's around humans, it probably falls in love and then
it gets disowned. So probably just mentally is effed up
in the head and perspective. I get why she's that way. Yeah,
she did turned three times. So I adopted her, brought

(01:29:15):
her back to my apartment in Hollywood, and it was
just me and I renamed her my own name her
freaking Miriam. So I named her Birdie bird dash e
like bird e and a rapper, So I named a Birdie,
gave her a mohawk. She was my bitch, she was
my everything. She was with me everywhere. I didn't say
that no drugatory age, you know. I called her that.
She was my bitch. This is the thing. It's a

(01:29:37):
female dog, that's technically what it is, but that's what
she was. She was might be, So I brought her
around everywhere. She's my everything. She was great. So I
feel like I saved her because I took her out
of that that place, and I had her for a
while until I had kids, and then she became aggressive
towards my first son, like she nipped them once. And
I knew she was a little bit aggressive because she
was also aggressive towards my other dogs. Once I guess,

(01:29:57):
long story short, my wife came back down, we got married,
We all together in a house. Yeah, I had solidified
gig in La so we were there. We were long
standing citizens of Los Angeles, so that everything came together,
dog seam together. The new dogs had a meet, or
the old dogs had meet my new dog. They were
kind of okay with her firstand offish, but everything was fine.
But then when I had a kid, then maybe all

(01:30:18):
those kids from the previous ones, trauma came back up
again and she started becoming aggressive and I was like, oh,
she's aggressive. I was like, that makes sense though, and
then I was just kind of kept or separated from
my son and feel all the things to make sure
that they were separated. And then she lunged at him
once and I was like, Birtie, like no, and she
immediately kind of like how you swashed a spider, you
swashed it and meedily go oh. She would do that

(01:30:38):
where she would lunge and I'm like Birdie and she'd go,
oh crap, sorry, like you're not the bad people. Those
other people were bad, You're good. I shouldn't do this
because he was he was like kid, he was trying
to like pet it whatever a little aggressive, and she
got pissed and lunge at him. And then she went
to lunge at him the second time a few months later,
and she got him in the face, like really close
his eyes and cut him and he was bleeding, and
I was like pissed, and I was like, oh my god,

(01:30:59):
I'm like I don't want to kill her, because I
was so angry that I was like because she went
after him, and I was like, oh my god, I
could see myself picking up and throwing her against the wall.
Just in the fit of anger, of like coming after
my son. Just naturally I'd be like, what the hell
and pick up and throw her, not saying I should
do that, but I just I had this and it
urged to be like, oh my god, you just bit
my son. And I was like, I can't do this

(01:31:21):
to her because I love her so much, and if
she does it again, I don't I don't know if
I can control myself. I was like. So I was like,
we had to get rid of her. I was like,
but I can't get rid of her because this has
been her whole life story. So so, so one day
we're at my we were up in San Francisco and
I always brought her with me when we'd go up
there to visit her family, wife's family, and it was
my son's one year birthday. All these people over Birdie's there,

(01:31:41):
and my gay best friend is over there, things Pacy,
and he's with his man, and they were like talking about, oh,
we're thinking about getting a dog to try it out
to see if we want to adopt a kid. And
I was like, perfect, and I was like, and I
was jokingly, my wife and I were almost like a
used car salesman dog right here is perfect. She's wonderful.
She's great for a one family household. You have no
other pets, you are You both work opposite schedules. Because

(01:32:04):
she's very needing and very attention she would like push her.
I love her so much. It's so sad because she
would push herself into you. So sweet, so loving, but
has that little thing wrong with her. And I'll say,
you guys are great though. You work mornings and he's
home in the morning. He works nights, you're home at night. Like,
this is the best scenario. I was like, we're gonna
be here for a week, take her for a trial period.
Take her home to Sacramento. You lived by an hour outside.

(01:32:26):
Take her to Sacramento. You have a yard, because we
didn't have a yard in La. We had a town home.
I was like, you give everything she needs, you need.
She needs attention, she needs a yard, and she needs
no kids. And you're not having kids anytime soon. And
if you adopt they were talking about adopting an older kid,
you're the best house for her. Try her out, and
if you don't like her, we'll take her back. We'll
deal with it. Day one, they both fell in love

(01:32:48):
with her. He goes well, a doctor will take her.
She was so happy, and I watched her on Instagram.
Now and she goes to Reno, she stays at resort,
she goes a ski resort, she gets pappa chetos, she
gets hair cut, she gets pedicured, because all leastly she
gets pampered. She's living her absolute best life. So she's
living a great life with me, but now an even
more elevated life with him. So I look at as like,

(01:33:09):
I guess if you could be the judge of this,
I feel like I was a hero and I saved
her because she could have been in that whole cycle
again of that, which is which I felt like, could
have been her repeating story of that. It could have
ended much worse. I felt like, I do you're you're
a piece of her story. I do think there's a
hero excited there. Yes, thank you for justifying that. Thank
you so much. I appreciated. This is a go one

(01:33:31):
