The Cruise Show. It's ludicrius Cruz. Damn what up? Though?
This is meted Man and you're listening the Cruise Show. Now,
we ain't cruise control hating the Cruise Show a real
ninety two to three cruise show. After I was podcast,
let's get straight to it.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Hey, Today we talked about older siblings, younger siblings, blended
families and all that, and one theme was very consistent.
Jackie hated being the little sister. Yeah, your list of
reasons for hating being the little sister.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
You're the girl, the princess, bro, That's exactly why. Because
I was the only girl, and I just felt like
I was just so like stay here protecting.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
You were protected by your parents and god.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Oh great, but like I still feel like I just
didn't like, I don't know, I was the more what's
the word.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
I was outgoing.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
I wanted to be with my friends, and my brother
wasn't that. So I felt like my parents were just
like always like, okay, because you're that, we're going to
keep you in here because we don't know how to
deal with a kid like that. And so I feel
like that was just kind of it was just like
it sucked because then I felt like for anything that
I did and I got in trouble for it was

(01:11):
like the end of the world. Because my brother never
got in trouble. So it was just like I was
I'm the bad kid.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Were you sheltered?

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I guess in a way for certain things I was,
But like, I know that I'm the bad kid because
my brother never got in trouble because he never wanted
to go out.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
He never did anything to risk anything.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
You were the most you were the more outgoing.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Plus I don't know. With the daughter, it's different though.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Bro, Yeah, I get that, but at the same time,
it's like, bro, I can't.

Speaker 6 (01:39):
But that's interesting because usually the youngest kid, like the parents,
if they have one or two older, then by the
time the youngest one comes, they're like pretty much over it.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah yeah, but Jacob wasn't necessarily a bad kid.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
Now, and Jacob had parties when my parents weren't there
and we were out at softball tournaments. I've never gotten
in trouble now, my mom knows and like, yeah, but
I mean I just like, I don't know. I just
felt like if I did something wrong, it was like
you're the problem, You're the bad.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
You're the bad child. Maybe I think I.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Was okay because look at you now. My brother is waiting.
I'm still a little fucked up in the head.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
We all are.

Speaker 6 (02:24):
Jack.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
I go to therapy. I go to therapy. My brother doesn't,
let me put it that way.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Does he need therapy? He might, You don't, Yeah he does.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, we all do.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah. Period, we're all recovery from childhood.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
I think all of us have stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yeah, but yeah, I hated being the youngest.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
I always wanted a little brother.

Speaker 6 (02:42):
To wait, what's the age difference between four and a
half years? Okay?

Speaker 4 (02:46):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, four and a half years.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
So yeah, the only time we were in school together
was elementary school.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
You gotta think for a girl, for a daughter, bro, Like,
they got to keep you off the pole, and they
got to make sure you you don't get pregnant.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Dude.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I was literally I was in my parents' site twenty
four to seven all the time. I never left their site.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
Because for you, when you finally got to leave their site.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
Twenty what year is it twenty five, twenty twenty three,
because that's when I moved out.

Speaker 6 (03:15):
But honestly, oh my gosh, okay, yeah, I guess.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
She moved out like later, like recently.

Speaker 4 (03:22):
Two years ago.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
I don't, but like yo, but they also installed crazy
work ethic. They made you tough, right, you can put
up with a lot, you can you can take a punch.
I guess you are very strong minded. You're also very
street smart. Yeah, you're very careful, but you're also very brave. Bro.
I think they also gave you a lot of good time.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
And they did. They did not No, my parents did
an amazing job. Yeah, but I just feel like it's
just easy to be to like joke with them, like,
oh this is why, because like my mom is very
much my miiho with my brother and she won't admit it,
or she will and then she's just like, oh, your
daddy's girl. I'm like, yeah, I know that, but at
least I admit it.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah, it was the problem.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Yeah, you have a younger brother, yes, who was treated
better my younger brother.

Speaker 6 (04:14):
Do you have any sisters?

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (04:16):
But she passed away before I was born less.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Don't you remember when what's his name was here and
we challenged a j berre Remember remember that?

Speaker 6 (04:26):
I don't think I was here for that one.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
I was wild.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
But it's all good.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, but yeah and a half, there's a big difference,
you know, Like I think, like my kids, they're twenty months,
so it's like they're all treated the same because they're
so freaking and then he does have some privileges because
he's older, right, Like Crew said today on the air,
like older kids always kind of get the better ship
and then get more responsibilities along with the better.

Speaker 5 (04:49):
Stuff, you know.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
So yeah, so I think, but they're both treated relatively
the same because they're so close. Your age got four
and a half years, like you said, you didn't even
go to school together.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
Yeah, my kids have gone to school and also grow up.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
That was the thing that pissed me off when I
was in high school is that when I entered freshman year,
there was still some people that knew my brother that
were seniors and they're like, oh my god, you're Ramere's
little sister.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
I'm like, I fucking hate that.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
I used to get that too, like all your Robert's brother,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
I hated that.

Speaker 6 (05:18):
I think when you're young, you hate it, But when
you grow up, don't you feel like a little bit
of comfort?

Speaker 3 (05:22):
No, no, no, no, we know what.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
The biggest flex was that just happened recently?

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Is that La Times did an article about Nico and
I during the protest? Sure, and they said Rameirez uh brother?

Speaker 4 (05:37):
So like, yeah, so finally I got my revenge on
La Times.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Because you got to building over your brother. Hell yeah, bro,
they don't know your brother. The story was about you.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Yeah, I know, but I told them, but we were
on my brother's like truck during the protest, so they said, oh,
Ramirez brother.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
So didn't even get a name. He didn't get a name.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Sister.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
No, I wasn't Jacob's sister. Times and his brother, I'm.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
Like, eat it?

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Did you shove it in his face? Oh?

Speaker 4 (06:07):
He brought it up.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
That's crazy.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
The sibling rivalry thing is real, and you just, yeah
so eloquently pointed that out.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
It the same in your family. That's are do you
and your family?

Speaker 6 (06:17):
I mean, I think I was definitely my mom's favorite.
Still I still am.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yeah really, but take care of her though I could.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
Yeah, I'm super connect. I've always been like that careful
with your mom too.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
But but there isn't rivalry with me and my siblings luckily.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
No, it was a little growing up with myself and
my brother bet you know what I mean, for some
odd reason.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
Are you in bed like close in age?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
We're close in age. I guess he's older though, but
h yeah, I mean there was some something there for
sure since we were kids. You know. Now it's different
now we have our families and like my family is
my family now there, I guess I have family, but
I have my.

Speaker 6 (06:56):
Family immediate family.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Yeah, so like, but there there some of that growing up.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
I think my brother is going to be the favorite
forever now because like he had kids first, so he
made my parents' grandparents.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
And you hate kids.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
So there's that.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
There's always that kids.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Yeah, I mean we plan to have at least one.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Yeah, one that she could hate for the rest of them.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
No, I do.

Speaker 6 (07:17):
I think when you have your baby, if you have
a baby, your mom's gonna like everything is going to
shake raper bro.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Heel before you have kids, stop playing.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
Oh yeah that part. Yeah, I can't have kids without
I can't.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Just for trauma, bro, and I I think I've done
that and I've caught it, and I'm like.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
We need to learn that. I need to learn how
to like kids before I have a kid.

Speaker 5 (07:37):
Yeah, that's a good plan.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah, let's start there. I need to liking kids.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Yeah, let's start liking how kids like cry and scream,
because take kids trick or treating.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Take your knees, trigger treating, you know, and now your
nephew when to get you know, when it gets older. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
See that's the thing.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
If I take them trigger treating and I give them
like stuff that they're not supposed to have, I can
always be like, go back to your mom and dad.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
I have to keep my kid.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
It's a whole lot different. Bro. You got to put
them to sleep.

Speaker 5 (08:05):
Yeah, yeah, and they rely on you one thousand percent.

Speaker 6 (08:08):
Yeah, feed them, carry them just because you know how
many times I've heard my kids go dad, and I'm
in the other room, and I go to myself.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
I'm like, what, yes, son, you again?

Speaker 6 (08:24):
Well said my nephew, one of them. He likes me
to watch him play, Like.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Oh yeah, but I have to watch.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Is it like look what I could do?

Speaker 6 (08:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (08:32):
Yeah yeah, like three hours? Like three hours.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
I get home and like, I work out and I
finally sit down after ten twelve hours, I start watching
the show and exactly the time they want to come
talk about everything. They're coming home from their practice and
I don't care about I don't care what. I want
to positive TV. Maybe get through thirteen minutes of a show,
maybe in an hour and a half.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
I had to, like, you know, talk to my mom
the other day.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Like I had called her just to let her know something,
just to like kind of like update her on something.
It turned into a whole thing where she was like,
you only call.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
Me when you need me. I was like, at the
beginning of this call, I called you just to stay hi, like.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
You are your mom, so when I need you, I
need to call you.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Yeah, Like well, at the same time, like I was, no,
she does, but she went to therapy for something else though.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
But like I had to like togger through.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
I was like, okay, well mom, how do you want
me to like talk to you then, like if that's it,
And then she was just like, well, I don't know.
It's Like well, then you can't come at me if
you don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
You need to figure it out. You need try to
figure it out.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
And then she was just like, well I don't know
how to respond. I was like, well, then I think
you and I need to have a talk. Then, like
that's what it is.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
I had to like I had to like locket parent
my mom that day, and then she finally realized, oh
like okay, like.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
There'll be more of that. Yeah, get older and yeah,
get older.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
