Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the best Bits of the week with Morgan number two.
What is up? Everybody? Happy weekend? Morgan here, it's the
best Bits. We're bitsing it up as kickoff. Kevin just
said as we came into the office, what's up, Babby,
what's up? You're excited to be on the Best Bits
this weekend. Of course, we got some things to talk
about and we're gonna like kick it off with something

(00:23):
that it's kind of dark but more just like I
felt like the worst person ever. Oh geez, I know
I've had a lot happen in my life recently, so
we just got to get to it. Okay, you ready
for this? Yes? All right, here we go. So coming
at number seven, we got an update from Eddie on
his no parenting Sunday situation, how that's going, if they're
going to keep doing it, and that whole thing, and
it just brought up for me, I felt like the

(00:46):
worst cat owner ever. Now let me tell you why. Okay.
So I got back from our iHeart Country festival in Austin.
I was exhausted and I napped all day Sunday and
Hazel Room we were kind of mad at me, which
are my dog and my cat and they're always mad
when I get back from somewhere because they're like, you
left us, you abandoned us, and they're kind of mad

(01:06):
at me. But you know, over the day they came
back around. You know, I was feeding them. Life was
good again. Well that night, I thought Hazel was still
mad at me. This is the first time I had
like full on left Hazel and like somebody had to
stay over and Remy was there. It was like the
first time for all of that. So I just really
thought she was mad at me. And normally she's out
and about, but she wasn't. So I had put something

(01:29):
in the pantry before I went to bed, and I
closed the door because my pantry is always closed. I
did not realize Hazel followed me in there. Oh no.
And so I go to bed like normal, and I'm
not thinking anything of it because I'm like, oh, she's
just mad at me, and she doesn't typically sleep with
me at this point, I've tried. She doesn't want to
sleep with me yet. She just normally wakes me up.
That's the only time I see her. But so like,

(01:50):
as I'm going to bed and all this is happening,
me not seeing her is pretty normal. And then I
wake up the next morning and I go and like
open up the bedroom door or like going open up
her her window to let her look out, and I'm
not seeing her in the room that she typically sleeps in.
I'm like, where is she? I looking on the bed,
She's not under there. I'm like, okay, maybe she's downstairs.

(02:10):
So I go downstairs to start, you know, making their
food or whatever, and she's not on the chair that
she typically sits in. I'm like, where is this cat?
And all of a sudden I walk in through the
kitchen and all I hear is this faint you, like
so faint. And I'm like, oh my god. And I
open up the pantry door out bus Hazel, and she's

(02:30):
like this freaking woman locked me in the pantry all night.
Oh my gosh. She was probably so confused. Oh my god,
this poor cat was probably meyowing at me all night.
I was so tired. I slept so hard, like did
not hear anything. I think she she had tried to
jump up on my like recycling bins and stuff. Things
were kind of scattered in there, and she had pete
on the paper towels, which like my fault my fault,

(02:52):
like girl, pete, where you need to pete, that's my fault.
And I know she made commotion and I just did
not hear it where me didn't even hear it, like
Remy had. I don't think slept much over the past
weekend when I was gone. She doesn't sleep very well
when I'm not there, and so I think she was
knocked out, like nobody moved. And so when I went
into the pantry and as soon as I saw her

(03:12):
bus out, I just collapsed onto the floor and I
just started crying. I was like, hey, so, I'm so sorry.
I swear this does not normally happen. I did not
realize you. And she's become a little shadow, like she
follows you in the kitchen because she loves food, like
this cat loves food, and she will shadow you in
the kitchen. And I just did not think twice about it.
And oh my god, when I tell you, like I

(03:34):
cried in that entire day. I felt so horrible. And
she was fine after, like she ran out and she
just kind of looked at me like what did you
just do? And she doesn't normally eat overnight anyway, so
that was fine, but she obviously didn't have her litter
box and she didn't have water. So I'm like, for
like seven hours, this poor cat was trapped in this
pantry not knowing what was going on. And when I

(03:55):
just tell you, I felt like the most horrible person
in life.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
I'm sure you did, but I mean that's like an
honest mistake.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
It is, but like this is a living, breathing thing
we're talking about, yes, and I am you know, I
call my mom and I called my dad. I was
like hysterically crying. This is at like four point thirty
in the morning, and mind you, like right before I'm
heading into work. Oh and I'm like panicking and I'm
calling them and I was like, why are we getting
woken up? And I'm I'm sobbing. I feel like this

(04:23):
horrible person. And they're like, Morgan, it's okay, Like did
you learn a lesson? And I was like, yes, I
learned a lesson, but I didn't want to learn this way,
like no, terrible. So I felt like the worst coutuner
of my life. But it's all see, you'll never do
it again. You'll never do that never, right, Oh my god?
I have I have checked every time I go to bed.
Now I check every door. I'm like, where are you?

(04:45):
I need to put my eyes on both of you.
And I had the same thing happen when I had
Remy as a puppy. Now this has happened. I did
not lock her in a pantry, but we had I
lived in an apartment at the time, and it was
all indoor, and so when we came in from outside,
I would always let her run on my flour to
like go to the door. It be like her little
off leash moment, and she'd always run there and for

(05:06):
like thirty minutes. One time I had thought she followed
me in, and she did it. And then when like
thirty minutes past and I couldn't find her anywhere, I
opened up the door and she's just sitting there, like, yo,
you locked me out. Gosh, I have a thing with doors, clearly,
Like guys, I just am not anticipating these cute little
animals to be my little shadows. So you're just not

(05:28):
used to it yet. So that's probably what it is.
I'm used to it with Ramy. That happened when she
was a puppy, like in our first year. But yeah,
this is the first obviously three months with Hazel.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Okay, no more shutting doors for you, Like you have
to leave them crossy, I have.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
To close them. You know why, because both of them
get into everything, Like the doors have to be closed,
or my trash would be everywhere, the food would be everywhere,
my clothes would be everywhere, like they would get into everything.
So everything stays closed and everything's put behind those doors
and cabinets because I've also learned Hazel can get into
habbinets if she wants to, so like it has to
say clothes.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Okay, So I don't know how to solve this, but
that's the thing. Like a dog would probably like Remy,
if you put her, if she was in the closet,
what do you think she would have done?

Speaker 1 (06:11):
And scratch and I would it would have been very loud, right,
Hazels mews are so soft. I know that's and I
know she was me owing all night, so I know
that's why it was so faint and that it just
broke my heart. I was like, I swear, and then
I gave her whatever food she wanted for the day.
I was like, here, eat it all. Do you want
to go for a walk with you? Like I would
try to show, Like, I swear this never is going
to happen again. This shouldn't have ever happened. You know.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
I bet she found a nice comfy spot, she fell asleep,
and then she just started me owing when she heard you.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
I hope I'm downstairs. I do hope she fell asleep,
but I mean, coming from what she came from, Like,
come on, Morgan. So I had my moment where I
felt like the worst person ever. I'm still recovering from
this worst person moment ever. Do you have one of these?
Can you make me feel any better?

Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'm like, oh, well, I was gonna say, I don't
think any of the one compared to that.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
It's okay, they don't compare. I don't want anybody to
can that because that was like, but maybe somebody else
has like done similar things with their animals. They feel
really bad. Oh, I'm sure this.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Will help them happen before totally.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
You know, I hope not, but I well, you know,
I hope for at least maybe in a similar situation.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
My only thing that happened this week that I felt bad, yeah,
was I got a to go order and it was
just like you go up to the window to get it,
and they were like, do you want a receipt and
I'm like, yeah, so I can put a tip on it.
And they're like, oh, we don't like have that. We
don't have you like sign it. So I didn't give
them a tip.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
I felt really bad because I always liked to tip
on the di order. Where was this place at? Was
it local? Yeah? Well it was a barbecue ed Lea's.
Oh okay, And they don't allow tips.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Huh huh not when you because I just get it
from the window outside.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, and I've never seen that.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Usually you sign a you know, the receipt. And they
were like, oh no, don't worry about it. But I'm
like I always liked I just feel bad, you know.
I like to give them a little something to you.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Do you ever, because I worked to go for a while,
so I will always give something. It's normally like one
to five dollars, depending on how big the order is. Yeah,
but do you ever tip like twenty percent on order?

Speaker 2 (08:03):
I usually do or more because I mean it's just me,
so it's really not that much.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
Anyway. It's usually like ten dollars, you know, so I yeah,
so that's we're the same. So it's like it just
depends on like if it's a five dollar order, if
it's a twenty dollars order, yes, yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
And if they're really nice to me, like if they're like, hey,
you know, welcome in, then I give them more. But
if they don't even like look at me or whatever,
I'm like, okay, you get like a dollar. It is,
it really is because they're you're probably not expecting a
tip because like when I was a server, you know,
when someone tipped on a to go order, it was
like rare, like they never did and I.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Was like, wow, I just put this in a bag,
thank you. Well. And at least my experience as being
a to go person at Buffalo Wild Wings, we made
minimum wage. We weren't below like servers were okay, oh
yeah yeah, so I do think to go make but
I don't know that that's everywhere. That was a corporation,
so it could speak a lot differently than local places.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah, I don't know how that works. I go because
I never I just was a server and mine was
like two dollars an hour.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Oh no, girl, girl. I started out as a host,
and then I was a to go person, and then
I was an expo, and then I was a server
and as I was about to be a bartender, which
is the thing I wanted to do the entire time
I went to college, so worked that whole time.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Oh my god, to not be able to.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Do that, but I went through every every level besides
cook at Buffalo offings. And it's probably a good thing I
wasn't cooking wings because I'm a vegetarian and I would
not go over well, I know that would have been
so weird. Yeah, but it's fun to watch them because
as the expo, you would always be the food deliver,
like you'd always go and make sure everything's getting delivered,
and so I'd always get to watch them make the wings.
And so they'd always because at Bubble they have all

(09:35):
these different spins like the sauces, and so they put
them in these buckets and they'd be spinning them. That's
how they make the the wings on the sauces. I
don't know if they still do that, but that's how
they did it. Then I didn't know that, yeah, because
I never a giant like specific bucket for each sauce.
And then they dumped how many wings they need when
whether it's the in bone or the boneless, right, the

(09:55):
two different versions, Yeah, or bone in. But I said
in bow same thing. And then they yeah, like pump
the sauce on there and they shake them up really hard.
It was fun to watch. That's cool. Yeah, I didn't
know that at all. The more you know, yes, and
I will still eat at Buffalo Wild Wings. So I
had a good experience there, and that tells you that
is good. Well you still lead to the place you

(10:16):
were a server. No, that's not good, So don't say
their name.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
I won't like I get PTSD basically when I drive by.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh yeah, that's not good. Okay, Well Buffalo anyway, safe,
great experience there? Okay, fair, But yeah, you'res definitely doesn't
compare to mine. But I appreciate you sympathizing with me.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
I do sympathize. But I think she was fine.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
I think she forgot about it already because you give
her so much love. Other than that, I hope so.
I know dogs have very short term memory. I think
cats have longer term memory, though. But she's not holding
a grudge. No, oh no, she's been loving and wants
to hang out all the time. But it did take
a few hours after that She's kind of like, what
the like, is this my life now? And I'm like no,
She's like, I never want to go back there, polase,

(11:02):
God never. But yeah, so it was it was a
traumatizing experience for both of us, to say the least.
So it's okay, no, but you are watching the animals
for me this weekend because I got a wedding, yes,
and I'm so excited to hear how it goes. Because
Abby told me the last time she was on Best
Bits she's kind of afraid of cats. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
I was like, oh, fun fact, I'm terrified of cats. Yeah,
I guess because I didn't like grow up with one
in my house. I've never lived with one, so I
I'm scared of what they're going to do when I'm sleeping.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
I think, well, he's not going to bother you when
you're sleeping, but she if she hears your alarm, she
may come in and check on you and be like,
you awake, You're gonna feed me? Yet she does. Yeah,
she doesn't do anything at night, but she does have
like sometimes she'll just start playing with toys in the
middle of the night, or she'll play with cabinets, which
is why I told Abby she has to come over
and I have to like tell her what this sounds like.

(11:51):
Otherwise she's gonna think somebody's breaking into the house. Yeah,
I'm glad you told me, but that's how fair is.
But she like tries to get in the cabinets. Oh yeah,
it just sounds like it just keeps sounds like somebody's
like open it constantly.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
I would have thought it was like a ghost or something. Honestly,
I'd be like, Okay, what's happening.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Oh yeah, that's this is why I'm prefaces. I didn't
to my girlfriend who watched him last weekend when we
were gone, and she was like, what is happening? So
reminder for me a lot of Listen, I'm having a
lot of learning lessons with having a new animal in
the house. Yes, So I'm excited to see how this
goes for you too, Terrified of cat. I think you
may fall in love with cats this weekend though, because

(12:26):
Hazel's awesome. What if I do?

Speaker 2 (12:27):
What if this is like a life changing moment for me?

Speaker 1 (12:30):
I think it might be because she's so loving and
she just loves people. When she kind of opens up
that trust, she may hide from you all weekend. We
do not know. I hope not. I know, I hope
not either, But I hope she turns at least a
little bit of your your scariness away. I would love that, honestly,
it would be super cute. Yeah, okay, okay, but yeah,
I'll keep you up to date, but I'll text you

(12:50):
throughout the weekend. Yes, and everybody make sure check on
Abby makes sure that she's not afraid of anything while
she's watching The Animal. I know. Oh we did to
Neil Sounds also on this week, who was awesome? She
did a cover of Landslide and I don't know about you, Babby,
but like I got chill bumps. I loved that performance.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Loved it because it is so her own. No one
else sounds like her, and that's what I love about
her voice.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
It's so like distinct. Yeah, and you know, if anybody
like is hating on it or anything, like, I just
want to say, a cover is meant to be a
cover for a reason. It's not supposed to be the
same song. It's supposed to sound different, right, That would
be boring if they all sounded the same. Yeah, Like
when you cover a song, does it sound the same? Usually?

Speaker 2 (13:31):
When I do it, Yeah, because I not like me,
I don't have like a super distinct voice. I would
say like tanil so mine or probably maybe a little boring,
but I think hers is super amazing.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
But if you were to record cover a song, yeah, Like,
say there's a song that you choose and you dec
had to like record it for an album, wouldn't you
want to make it a little bit different?

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Oh yeah, that's like the fun part to make it
your own and be like, how can I make it different?
Because you don't want it to sound exactly the same.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
It's the same. I feel like you're just constantly comparing
the two instead of it being like, this is totally different.
It's a version of this song. Hmm, you throw in
your own like flair. Yes. Like a great example is
fast Car that Luke Colmb's covered on and it's so good,
but it's so different than the original song. Huh, and
I love it, But I would like I would at
this point choose to put on Luke Colmb's Fast Car version.

(14:22):
I would too, Oh my gosh, that would okay, I'm glad.
I'm the only one pants like gives me goosebumps. I
don't know why it just because it just like brings
you back. It just feels like his voice on it
just feels so perfect. Mm hm. So you know, cover,
if you can cover any song and you're gonna record it,
what is it going to be?

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Dang, that's a hard one, I gotta think.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
I mean, you do the the Heads, Carolina Tales, California.
That is your kind of go to song, that is.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
My go to I guess I could do that one.
I like slower songs, like you know, I used to
sing Landslide all the time too. Now I'm like, I'm
not gonna tempt that again. That what has been done
the best way it can. Sparado from the Eagles, Like,
that's one of my favorites.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
I'm gonna be honest. For one second, I thought you
said and I was like a country version of how
does Sparado go? By the Eagles?

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Don't you fing it cold in the winter time, the
skymon snow and the sun don't shine.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
It's hard to till than that from the day. I
don't think i've heard the song before, really. I don't
think I was exposed to a lot of Eagles music though,
so that's probably why. But when I'm seeing it sounds beautiful,
So now I need to look into the song. See
that's what covers zoo. If you heard it before, maybe
you go listen. I know, like you very jaded Eagles player. Wait, way,

(15:47):
you're jaded? Well, like like, I just don't understand.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Okay, yeah you just yeah, but that one is definitely.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
Like listen, I use a lot of words out of context.
I was like, hold on, and that may not be
what jaded means. Which is really funny because my sister
sent me a hilarious article that I'm going to read
at the end of his best bits that is going
to make you laugh about the fact that a lot
of people have a hard time with the English language.
I don't think he meant jaded. I'm not sure. I'm
very naive. Yes, there it is. That's better naive. I

(16:17):
means you're just like so tired of it. Yeah, okay,
I'm not that. I haven't even gotten that to that point.
I'm just naive. I don't know anything about the Eagles
besides Vince Skill. Isn't that the same one? Yeah? Yeah,
that he went in. Yeah, he's part of it. Vince Skill.
I know country music, I know the Eagles pretty much
every other genre. I don't, but yeah, okay, yeah that's fun.

(16:40):
I like it. Well, I want to talk about something
because she got to record a new album on a
train while she was living on a train for like
fifteen days and just crazy experience and the way she
talked about it was super cool. What's something that you
hope to do in your lifetime? It could be anything
in the world. It could be as bizarre as crazy
as you want it to be. What's the one thing

(17:00):
that you hope to accomplish in your lifetime?

Speaker 2 (17:02):
I want to like backpack like across the world, like oh,
I feel that.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Like Europe.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
I'm saying, like, don't even have a plan, just like
fly over there and just be gone like six months.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, I would love love to do that. I feel that.
What would be the first place you start? I'm gonna
say Switzerland? It's so pretty. You know who has a
house there?

Speaker 2 (17:26):
She and I Twain what Yeah she does not?

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Yeah she does. I'm so jealous. Right, so you go see,
shouldn't I? Uh, okay, that's right there, and backpack all
over Where would you end? So?

Speaker 2 (17:39):
I don't even know because I don't even want to
just stay in Europe, Like I want to go all
over the place, every continent. That's what I'd love to do,
is visit every continent.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
I'm with you, like I would do this with you.
I would, I genuinely. There are some days where I'm like,
can I just quit everything and go travel the world? Yeah?
If I could bring Rumy and Hazel with me to
literally travel the world, I know I can do it
in the United States, Like, I could probably find a
way to make that work. If I could bring them
with me to go travel the world, I would do
it in a heartbeat. If somebody gave me a million

(18:10):
dollars and said, you can go travel the world with
your dog and your cat, do whatever you need to do,
I'd be like, yes, I'm out. I'm see you later.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
That is a dream, Like a dream you can't even imagine.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Yes, so cool, like just seeing all the different places.
Like my entire like feed most of the time is
like travel stuff. I'm like, y'all need to quit that
because that's hard. Is it like wonderlust? Whatever? Are you
what's the what's the word for? Like?

Speaker 2 (18:34):
I think it's wonderlust. Yeah, I have a like you
just want to you just want to go. My friend,
that's like our age. She bought an art she quit
her job last year, bought an RV and traveled for
six months around the US, and I was like, oh
my gosh, she had like she had the best time ever.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I want to do that so bad. I do too,
ray and I often every time raise on. We somehow
get on these standards of like how we don't want
to like get to a point of retirement and that's
when we do it all like we want to do
it now. But you know how hard that is, Like
it is really hard.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
It's like when do you have the time to do
that unless you have unless you quit your job, right yeah?
And you like you don't want to do that if
you have your dream job, why would you quit it?

Speaker 1 (19:12):
Yeah? Right, yes, but somebody gives me a couple of
million less we travel for me? Oh sorry, I gotta go.
I'm going. Yes, I've just been now out in the
universe for both of us.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
How are we gonna get the million? I think winning
the lottery is the only one. I don't know who's
gonna give us some money.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
I might have to start playing the same way lunchbox does.
And just like you know, let's go, Oh my god,
please do and then you win. You just started playing.
I went and boyd a lottery ticket one time because
I didn't get in on like the office one and
I was like, you know what, I just want to
go and buy it and then it'd be a hilarious story
if I ended up winning. But I didn't and I
ended up paying more money than I wanted to, and
I was like, I'm never playing the lottery ever again.

(19:49):
That's how they want nothing.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
Yeah, stupid, you think you're gonna win the first time?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, that was genuinely my feeling. I was like, but honestly,
I was just doing it for the plot, Like I
didn't really actually want to play the lottery. I just
wanted to do it to win and come on the
show and be like, guys, I won, but nothing. I
won zero dollars, stupid, not even fine. And I meant
to spend twenty dollars and somehow I managed to spend
forty dollars. No ask me how that have happened. I
have no idea what happened in the gas station. It's

(20:15):
like I blacked out. When I was I was like,
I need a lot of tickets he's like, oh, here,
and then he had already pulled them and I was like, well,
I feel like that's bad luck. If I don't buy
them all, it probably is.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Well I guess not really because you didn't win. But
you know what, somebody told me that you at least
win a minimum of how much you spend. And I'm like,
that's not accurate.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
That's not very excited.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
And I was like, oh, I'm gonna spend twenty dollars
on this scratch off. I have to win at least
twenty and I won zero. I was like, they lied
to me.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, who told you? I don't remember. I really don't
feel like that's some lunchbox logic. I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
I think Scooba Steep told me, oh, oh my check
after this, so I think it was we were talking
about lot of your tickets. He's like, you're guaranteed to
win what you spend.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
There's literally no guarantee any of it. No, that's not
what the lottery is. Otherwise everybody would be playing yead
never lose, yeah, because then you just gain money that.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
No, we're maybe they were messing, yeah, I think they were.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
They're probably trying to get you to spend some money,
and I'm like, okay, because I believe them. Well, when
you're naive lottery players, what do you know.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, I'm just trying to get advice from the guys
that know right now.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Dude, they mess with us all the time. I think
he was. So that's the other thing you and I
hope to do in our lifetime is win the lottery
so we can shove it in all our faces. That'd
be awesome. I can't wait for that day. Yeah, this
is like, this is honestly what it kind of like
relates to this, Like, what I really want to be
able to do is go through a portal to like
another planet or another time, a portal. I hope that

(21:47):
happens in our lifetime, where the technology to create portals happens.
I've always had this theory that basically everything we see
in the movies will someday come true. It's just a
matter of time. And so I mean you see portal
all the time into to other worlds, to other timelines,
to heck, to go to freaking Australia from the United States. Yes,

(22:08):
And I would just love the experience of that, like
technology being here for people to have such cool experiences
and it not cost an arm in a lake and
you just have to like go through a portal and
it's like so accessible to everyone. Uh huh, Like that
would be so cool to experience in my lifetime, even
if I'm like ninety five, I'm about to hit the grape.
That's the last thing you do. Yeah, like this is

(22:29):
on my list to do, Like I have to go
through a portal, that'd be awesome.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Right, Well, that does bring me why are flights still
like twenty hours across the world? Do they not have
a better system we can't get on like some supersonic
plane or something.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
I think we have the technology, but it's being used
in warfare, being used for civilian life. I guess what
I'm saying is, can we let us use them too?

Speaker 2 (22:50):
Please write yes, Like I don't want to sit on
a plane for twenty hours.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
I mean you have to know that technology is beyond
what we know, because like we get like little like
bits of it. Right when they're like, oh, the flying
car is here, and like there's somebody that's created the
flying car. I'm like, listen, we're seeing the flying car
in the news. I don't want to know what's not
in the news, because I know there's more technology behind
that that we aren't seen about and they're not telling
us about, right, you know, because they're find finding ways

(23:14):
to monetize it, I guess pay for it, and they
probably have to do like safety tests and all that. Yeah,
I do want to be safe, like, don't give me
something that's not safe, but like also let's not keep
it to you know, and try and monetize a crop
out of it. Let's just like let people see.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
The world, right, we only have so much time on
this earth. Yeah, let's get it moving.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
We have things to do. It's all a lie. Everything's
a lie, I know. I do like that though about
the portal, right, good idea portal and traveling, which are
you know, we're on the same wavelength, Yeah, we're they're together, yes,
And you know what I really appreciate about us right
now is that we both chose things they're not at
all work related, right, because I've noticed that so many

(23:52):
people get wrapped up in the idea of it. I
love what we do. I have so many goals in
what I want to do, but like I also have
goals outside of my work life, and I want to
keep it that way. I would love to most of
my goals to be personal because work isn't life, and
we've been led to believe that work is life and

(24:12):
it's not. So I'm so proud of us right now.
We're sitting here and like, of all the things that
we could have chosen, we chose two things that are
not at all related to that tether of our lives.
Me too proud of us that.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
We also know we don't want to like work our
life away and we don't want to like so we
don't see but like during the week we're just thinking
about work. Yeah, but it's like outside of it, You're like, Okay,
there's there's also more to life that you need to
also see, prioritize, exam.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Balance, which is why I'm so proud of us. Abby.
That's the five. We're in the studios. Actually we got it.
We barely hit it. Look at us, all right, it's
time to talk. I heart Country Festival because we we
were in Austin last weekend and you and I just

(25:02):
had a freaking time. Now. Coming in at the number
five spot is young listener LJ, who, if you guys
remember like months ago, called into this show, and his
mom was surprising him with tickets to the festival, and
Bobby's like, well, hey, come hang out with me backstage.
So he basically had this whole epic weekend in Austin
and all those pictures, Like his mom sent me all

(25:23):
these pictures that we can put up on our website,
so they're all up at Bobbybones dot com and anybody
can like go Reliveihart Country Festival through LJ, which is
pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Line.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
He's a really cool little kid and it was cool
to get to meet him in that whole family. But
I want to talk I Heart Country Festival because you
and I had some funny experiences. Yeah what in the
Yeah we did. And I say that because you and
I were hanging out with the guys most of the time,
which is why those experiences were very interesting.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Exactly anything with them, it just turns into what is happening.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
And one of those being that I really wanted to
see the bats come out from under the bridge. And
we had left party. So Friday night we had two
parties that we had to go to. One was like
the pre iHeart Country Festival party for like radio people
basically and some advertisers. And then another one was for
all of the label people, and then that we also

(26:13):
had to stop at. So after the first party, we
were walking to the other one and we were right
by the bridge. Do you know what the bridge was
named at the Congress Street Bridge? Yeah, like the iconic
Bridge of Austin. Yes, that's what I'm going to name it. Yeah,
And apparently baths come out from there, like every night
at dawnt dusk. Oh my gosh. I just had this

(26:34):
conversation the other day. I was like, wait, which dusk
dust done? We come out fore night basically before as
the sun's going down. And I got really excited because
we were leaving at the time that that was happening,
and the bridge was right there, and so Edie's like, oh, yeah,
the baths are probably gonna come out in like five minutes.
I was like, I've always want to. I've been to
Austin I don't know a handful of times now and
I've never gotten to see the bats. I'm like, oh

(26:56):
my god, we're right here, let's go see the bats.
So we walk over there because I'm list into Eddie Abby.
How long did we stand at the bridge? For forty
five minutes? Yeah, at least yeah, they did Bat's ever
come out? No, they did not, but they said that
they were about to every five minutes. Every five minutes,
we did a TikTok live video because I was like, oh,
this is hilarious, and these two, I'm not kidding you,

(27:18):
probably every other minute. And there was multiple people standing
at this bridge, right, So it wasn't like we're standing
there and nobody's there, right. There were a lot of
people aligned us. It was packed, and so every time
they'd be like, oh, the bats are coming here, they come, here,
they come for forty five minutes.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
I'm sure the people in front of us hated us.
I really do think so.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
I think they were really glad when we decided to leave.
They were so annoying. Lunchbog at one point was like,
are we the annoying ones on the bridge right now?
I was like, yes, you have been the whole time.
They're always the annoying ones. Let's put that there. That's
just how they act. And then, you know what's funny
is what I've noticed and I love this about my dad.
Whenever we go in public, he has like a stage, right.

(27:56):
My mom calls it his stage. When he's around us girls.
It's like he gets up on his stage and he
like does all his jokes and he's so excited. That's
so cute and so and he does it in public too.
I think it's a dad thing. And what I'm picking
up on is Lunchbox and Eddie when they're in public
have this stage that they like to go on. Yes,
and they and it's it's a very dad thing to do.
That's a dad thing because they're gonna be like, oh

(28:18):
my god, Morgan talking about dad thing. It's endearing. I
love when my dad does it. It's hilarious. But like
when these two do it, yous are a bunch of hooligans.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
No, it seriously was like they were doing a skit.
I'm not even kidding, and they in front of a crowd,
like they were like, oh, oh.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
You see that, that's the bad literally Beavis and Buthead
in real life. I'm not even that's what they do
the whole time. I was like, who are they talking
to themselves themselves the whole time? So that was the bad?
Do you have? Do you have anything else you wanted
to add about it? In bas No, but they'd be like, oh,

(28:54):
there's one right now, and it was just like a
regular bird.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
And then they're like, no, you got to watch for
one because because it's the leader, and then all the
rest will follow. They're like, there's the leader. Just everything
about it.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
The experience was not good. So next time, if we
ever come to Austin and somebody wants to actually help
us see the bats, let abby and I know, yeah, yeah, seriously,
we're not going with lunchboxinetti. Nope. What else happened? Oh
that second party we went to, they had a candy bar.
Oh okay, yep. It was like a closet full of candy.
You can just go in and get anything else. And

(29:26):
they had an ice cream machine and they had okay,
so I know what I did. I want to know
what you all chose. Okay, So what I did was
I had a little cup. And what we learned was
we were in like the place that I heard had
like rented out for this party was like a like
a private bar that people have to like be out.
So now we understand why there's a candy bar there. Yes,
it was like an exclusive club, so it makes sense

(29:48):
that they have a candy bar. I'm like, most bars
wouldn't like this, but on a candy bar. So I
want to know what your choices were in this candy bar.
So what I had was peanut m and m's. I
had airheads, snake twigs, candy cats, listen. I had a
cup that I put everything in kit kats. I had
a sour straw, and then I had ice cream which

(30:09):
I got from the soft shore machine with fudge and
caramel on it. And then I had an oatmealk cream pie.
And those were my choices from this whole, this whole
crazy bar that we had. What a mixture. I didn't
let me tell you that oatmeal cream pie saved my
life Saturday night because we got back from the festival
and I had like not eaten anything, and I did
not want to go find food. So I got back
to my hotel room and that was my dinner. It
was an oatmeal cream pie and the fries you did

(30:31):
get fried. That was Friday night, though Saturday next night. Yes,
after a whole crazy day that we had, Like I
had two breadsticks like five o'clock and then when I
got back was like twelve, and I had an oatmeal
cream pie. That was my dinner. And you're probably very
excited to see that oatmealk cream. O. My god, I
was so happy I saved it. Yeah, so happy.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Because so you get in late, like you're like, I'm starving,
any I want anything?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
And I had my cup of candy and you don't
want to go find food because you don't want to,
like especially in a new time. You're like, I don't
want to go search all over the town for right.
So I'm glad you ate yours. What was in your
your cup of candies? Okay?

Speaker 2 (31:04):
I had chocolate or Hershey's kisses. I had skittles sour
gummy worms, is the main part. I just got, like
my entire cup was full of so our gummy worms.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
And remember I put it in my purse.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yes, And then we were waiting for the fries and
it like knocked over and I just had canvas Skittles
was everywhere.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Yeah, and you didn't get ice cream. I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
I feel on the ice cream. I don't know why
I wasn't feeling it. I guess just like mixing, like
dairy and alcohol. I don't I don't know, even though
I love Bushwalkers, which.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Is literally makes me dairy and alcohol. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
Me why I do the things I do. I've told
you this before. Why I don't like the things I
feel like, I'm really weird.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
You know you were eating fries? Did you eat the
fry butts when we were? Because I had that. I
had the fries, I had nowhere to put them. Oh
my god, I just want to throw them on the streets.
Oh my gosh. You didn't even think about it until
this moment that you can go the entire fry. I
ate there, and you had multiple fries. We were also
all little little on toxic at Friday night.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
So I guess I didn't care. I was like, I
just need it.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah, you had the butts. I'm so proud of you.
Who are you in the litter fry butts around Austin?
There would have been a trail of fry butts from
the fry plights back to our hotel room and something
Eve been like, is that the fry Bandit like, who
was here? Oh my gosh, Wow, I did? That's crazy?

(32:23):
You did? I caught you? Okay, it can be done.
It can't be You just need a little liquid courage. Also,
the guys dragged us into a jazz room, which ended
up being really cool. It was called the Elephant Room,
the Elephant Room, and we were in like this random
jazz room after this Friday night. Friday night was really

(32:44):
the more fun festivities, and Saturday it was like work.
We were working, right, but we were in the Elephant
Room and it's really cool. It was like we were
underground and there was jazz music. Plane that was really I.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Wasn't expecting that. They're like, you want to go in here,
and we're like, okay.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
The best pride that was when Lunchbox texted and asked
for it. So at that point it was abbing me,
Eddie and Scuba and we're all just hanging out whatever.
And then Scuba or Lunchbox sext me was like, where
are you guys? And I texted him back and he
showed up and Eddie and Scub were like, how did
you know we were here? And like he like played
it off. I'm like, dude, guys, I texted him, Yeah,
why do you think on any level that Lunchbox would
somehow wander into an underground jazz bar. He would never

(33:18):
in his life, dude, never. But this this is my
my extra teachiest film, and I want to know if
you also had this experience. But I can't tell if
Lunchbox and Eddie are just like cheap or if they're
lazy and let me let me tell you why both
so we were we were all together like multiple times

(33:39):
this weekend, and for breakfast Saturday, I paid for my
breakfast with Lunchbox and for the jazz room. Oh my gosh,
I tried to pay even though my card like declined,
because it was like, where are you at? Why are you?
What are you in the jazz room in Austin, which
my debit card has never been declined? So that was
an interesting experience. But I was gonna pay for all

(33:59):
of the It's not only for our covers, but for
our drinks. And at no point in time did the
guys ever try and pay in these situations. And on
my uber home, like back to the airport from our hotel,
I rode with Eddie and I also paid for the
you but.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Oh my gosh, I remember, I remember when they set
the check down and I was just kind of like
both they acted like they didn't see it.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Yeah, they did the whole like look around and they
called the girl move on a first date.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Yes, I was like, what is going on and then
you were like, oh, I'll get it. But then it declined,
and then people just sat there because I was going
to but I was like, no, I'm going to see
what the guys do.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, they did not, Like Eddie didn't at any point
in time try and pull his card out. They don't.
What is it why? And so I don't know if
it's if it's because they're cheap or because So here's
the thing. When you when we go on these work trips,
we can write everything to the company and they pay
for as long as it's like genuinely part of what
we're doing. And so I was like, okay, well this

(34:51):
is you know, like work drinks. I'll just ride it,
send it into the company. I don't think they want
to send in more seats. No, they don't get this
who done? So, like even though they wouldn't have to
pay for it, I don't think they want to have
to send in the receipts. Yeah, it's just extra work.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
They have to like take a picture of it, go
in fill out the form.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
So I cannot tell which it leans more of if
they're more just cheap or if they're lazy. They always
do that and you know what they did in Vegas
for me?

Speaker 2 (35:19):
What they ordered all the really expensive stuff and I
try to stay with him budget because they only give
us so much per day. Yeah, you know, they wentint
crazy like they were buying ever like really expensive drinks,
like an expensive steak, and then they made me split
it three ways.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
That's rude.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yes, I didn't even bring that up. I don't even
trn right now.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
I know it's rude.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yes, they were like, so then mine was maxed out,
like at my max for just one meal, and I
was like, thanks a lot, guys like I'm over here
worried about budget, and then they split it three ways
so that theirs goes down.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Oh, I don't understand them. I don't either. I'm glad
I'm not the only one with this experience, though. Oh
I'm sure. Yeah, And that's rude. No, I really I
feel like you should. I feel like you should tattle
on them. I feel like that's some spell to tea.
Can is it too late? No, listen, call them out.
They deserve that. I tried to call about this was

(36:14):
a rejected, rejected segment. I tried to do it. My
other tea got spell about lunchbox making me carry his bags,
so I already had one tea to spill.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
That was a good one I should have turned mine
into because guess what he did the same thing. He
made me carry his When I got to the venue
with him, Are you serious? He was like, can you
go put this somewhere? And I'm like, can you not?
But I was like, my job is kind of to
help everybody, so like, you know.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Okay, but isn't it mostly to help Bobby though, yeah,
it's not to help lunchbox. Yes, I let him slide.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
But now that I look back, I'm like, wait a minute,
Wait a minute. He did it to Morgan, now he
did it to me. Okay, I did you know.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
Now I'm just gonna sit here angry. Yeah, I'm kidding him.
Can we change a subject? I am trying to get
a little mad right now because we're both experiencing the
same things on a brider note, not only like we
talked a little bit about it our flight back, but
not only did our flight Our flight back from my
heart country was crazy because Eddie Scuba, Mekane Brown, his wife,
Jordan Davis, Mitchell Timbaney, I'm all on our flight. Wow, Wow, Yeah,

(37:13):
I had no one on mine. I went later. You
did go later. You wanted to explore a little bit.
But yeah, it was it was crazy. I've never been
on such a star studded flight before.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Seriously, did any of the other passengers like act a
certain way? Like did they try to talk to them?

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Really? The only interactions I saw happening were with Kane Brown.
I saw a lot of people go up to Cane Brown.
Oh they did what did they say? Getting pictures with them? Wow?
I did see that happened. Interesting, but not the other ones.
But it could have happened. I just didn't see it.
I just saw Caan pretty much the whole time we
were around him when we were sitting like waiting for
the plane. Yeah, got there pretty early, like shout out
to them than I did, which is also another funny thing.

(37:51):
Scuba wanted to get there like two hours before the plane.
Mind you, this was an early flight. Okay, oh my god,
I do not get there. I also have tsa prechech
I'm made sure of that, Like I'm very that helps me.
But we were sitting in the lobby and Eddie and
I were like, okay, let's leave at like six fifteen.
Our flight left at seven forty. I took about fifteen
minutes to get to the airport and Sco was like, no,

(38:13):
I'm leaving at five And I was like, sir, I'm
not getting up to go ride to the airport with
you at five am and I can have a whole
other hour of sleep. And sure enough, they ended up going.
They didn't go as early as five, but they went
at like five thirty and Eddie and I left like
six ' ten and we got there like probably five
minutes after them.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Oh my gosh, it did nothing.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
So this is you know tsa prechech orth it Yeah,
one and two. If you have TSA Pretech, don't get
to the airport so frickin' early right like shopping, He's
like walking up and down shops like he's like, I
have to make it back on this flot. I'm like, scuba,
So do I like you to go? Hack? Yeah? Why?
Why are something? It's really funny.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
I feel like there's like two types of people in
this world. There's ones that want to get there like
over two hours early, and then ones that I mean
just right then, like I don't need I.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
Feel like that's a dad thing. I'm not gonna lie
because my dad always wanted to go to the airport early.
He's like, we have to make sure we have plenty
of time. I'm like, we will have plenty of time
for you at this time. That is true.

Speaker 2 (39:14):
Every guy in my family is always like that.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
Yeah, I think it's a diverse girl thing. I'm like,
last minute, I'm like, I only need like twenty minutes. Well, yeah,
like let me grab a water real quick and then
I'll be there, especially if I'm like in the B group,
I don't even need the right at the time it
starts boarding exactly.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
They do, like the family boarding town. Mean, see, you
have plenty of time, Like I don't want to.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
Hang out at the airport. What are yours doing? Like
people go and like eat at the airport. I'm like, no,
I'll eat at home and then I'll like come here.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Yes, I don't want to like hang out there all day.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Some people do though. That's funny, though there are You're right,
there are two types of people, and I would argue
that it is a little bit of a diverse girl thing.
So now I'm very curious if there's any women out
there who like to get to the airport like still
early because I personally don't know any that I can
think of. I don't either or like like and let
maybe it's like an international flight, cool, I'd probably get
there early because I'd be a little bit nervous about everything,

(40:04):
especially if I've not really done it before. But domestic
flights what, no I even like checked the traffic. I'm like, oh,
I got twenty minutes right on the dot, like this
is how long it's going to take me? Right? Yeah?
Oh that's funny. Two types of people. Well, we are
going to talk about some fun things. A homeless guy
gave Eddie a duck, so Eddie drives a jeep. Ducking

(40:25):
jeeps is this whole big thing, which I don't know
how he didn't know this because I ducked him, which
I mentioned in the segment, Like I ducked him and
he threw away the duck, like he knew deep ducking
was a thing? Yeah, what did he think it was?
I think Eddie is kind of like Dorian, has a
little bit of short term ember last sometimes, and I
think that's part of having kids too. I think there's

(40:46):
some things that just leave the bank and they never
come back. And so I had ducked him before, which
was a funny thing. But it made me think about
this because, like, most people don't understand the hype about jeeps,
and I totally get it unless you drive one and
you're in kind of the whole vibe of it, What
do you care and why do you're like, why are
people waving at each other and why are they giving
each other ducks? Like it's so cool to be in it.

(41:08):
I love it. I love waving up people and I
love them people give me a duck. It's like my
favorite thing in the world. Yeah, hence why I like
did a whole spree of like I did, like over
Christmas time, I went and ducked a whole bunch of people.
After I got my first duck, it was like this
whole thing. Yeah, and it became a whole thing. But
what's something that people upsess over and you just don't
get it? Oh gosh. I mean, because there's a lot

(41:28):
and you can list a bunch, doesn't just have to
be one. But I know jeeps are one for some people.
They're like, I do not understand this hype. I love
my jeep, though I get the hype.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
Well, I have one right off the top of my head.
It is like TV shows that people have stuss over
that I don't understand.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
I never get it. You're so funny with TV shows?
Am I like that? I miss every question in trivia
on TV shows and movies, Like I just I don't
understand the hype over things You're not a pop culture
person would be the better way to describe it. I
guess so because you don't like TV shows, movies, you
don't really like like magazines. Do you like spend a

(42:05):
lot of time on social media?

Speaker 2 (42:07):
Not as much as many other people. Yeah, it's like
people that we work with, obviously, But I feel like
in radio you do have to kind of be like
pop culture up to.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Date, like your you're relevant to a point on culture,
but like you're not gonna choose it right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
What are other things that people What are big things
that people obsess them?

Speaker 1 (42:27):
I mean, mine's sushi. I do not I hate sushi
and people love sushi. Poh really do they like? Are like,
oh sushi, Like we're gonna go to the zoo place,
let's get sushi. I don't get it. I don't either.
I don't like sue Ramen. Ramen, Yeah, ramens enough.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
I don't know why you pay fifteen dollars for a
bowl of ramen.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
When you can have it for like seventy five cents
maybe at home.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
Yeah, because I grew up eating, you know, ramen.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Yeah, And I'm like, why do you go there? What's
the big obsession?

Speaker 2 (42:52):
Like people were suggesting that No, Austin, They're like, there's
a great ramen place.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
I was like, not gonna go there. Thing I've ever
had like fancy ramen, I don't either. I've definitely had
the ro what's like the iconic one in the bowl
bowl of ramen ramen soup. Oh I don't know. Yeah, yeah,
the white with like orange lettery. Yes, I know what
you're saying. I never had that fancy ramen. Yeah, like

(43:17):
in a bowl and it's like fifteen dollars. Nope, that's
a good one. I just won't. I'm not gonna do it.
Same way with sushi. Do you like sushi? No, okay,
I don't like seafood.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
I have the I get the California rolls if they
I guess that has a crab in it. But I
get the veggie rolls if there is, and it's just
like cumber carrots avocado.

Speaker 1 (43:36):
See, I've tried the I've tried the veggie roll. That's
when I tried to get on the sushi cake. And
I hate seaweed. I learned really okay, not a fan
of seaweed. I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
I just like the rice how it's like sticky that's
really so good.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
Well, and some people say they make them without seaweed,
but I've yet to find any without seaweed. So if
that ever happens, I will try it. But for now,
do not understand the hype on sushi. I don't either.
Let's see what else is there. There's multiple I had,
like so many and now they're all just like gone
for my brain to remember lost Dory moment.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
Yeah, I guess mine is like shoes like the Air
Force one and all those that I don't understand the
hype those of What makes them so special? Or like
the what are Kanye's.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
Oh Yeazy easys?

Speaker 2 (44:21):
What is the obsession with that? They don't I don't
even think they're good looking.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
Yeah, Yeezy's, I don't find I'm very attractive. I do
think the Air Force ones are cool.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Yeah, those are better, But like I think it was
a easy Yeah, I think. I'm just like, I think
they're kind of ugly.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
Sorry, no, I'm with you. I don't think they're they're
cute either, Like I would never buy a pair. I
also like, I love the idea of the red heel,
the Louis Bauittons. Yeah, that's I love the idea of them.
But so many people I've seen posts like these are
so uncomfortable. I'm like, why would I buy something that
I would never wear? I know, because usually things that
are popular they're really comfy. Like, you get them because

(44:58):
everybody loves them for so many reasons.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Yeah, and you're like, Okay, I'll pay that much because
it's worth it. They're comfortable, But everyone that I are
not comfortable.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
Yeah. I think that the Louis Baton, red bottoms and
the easy I think the reason most people get them
miss because they're like a piece or state they say
something by owning them. Yeah, I don't care, listen, I'm
buying like a twenty dollars dress. That was the best
part about this weekend is I had a lot of
people call mom at my dress. I'm like, thank you,
it was twenty dollars, but.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
You're like, you didn't have to say that because people
would have thought it was privory.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
You know, but that was even more reason why I
wanted to because I'm like, guys like they don't have
to and you and I didn't we talk about this
because I was like, I went shopping and I saw
dresses for like five hundred dollars that I loved. I
thought they were so cute, But there is no way,
am I right mind? Could I ever spend that money?
Not a dress? Nope, like one time, maybe a few
time dress. I don't understand, even like the CMA ones

(45:53):
that I wear and stuff I rent them.

Speaker 2 (45:55):
That's true because you're like, I'm gonna wear this once
and then what am I gonna do with it?

Speaker 1 (45:58):
I'm not gonna back in whereas I love it and
I want to keep it, but like not for seven
hundred dollars, No, I'll rent it for a hundred bucks
and like I look really good, cool for the night.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
You know what is funny whenever anyone compliments things like
I'm like thanks TJ. Max, and I'm like, wh why
do you why do you have to go there? Like
why do you have to go there? It's like a
flex that you're like I got it for a deal.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
Listen, I would rather flex and it's for a deal
than be like it's guchee, Like that's just not my energy. Yeah,
it's from tar Ja and this is from Forever twenty one.
Leave me alone. Seriously, it's so funny. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
I think Bobby even complimented it was like it looked
like a vented sweatshirt and he was like, oh, I
love that, And I was like thanks TJ.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Max.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
He's like, you didn't have to say that, Like I
was just saying I liked it. You could just say
thank you.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
I was like, Okay, Yeah, I don't know why I
said that either. I think it's just that because most
of the time, like if somebody likes it, you're like, oh,
like if you want it, you can go get it. Yeah.
I think that's what it is. I think that's our
I think that's our Midwestern energy because I do the
same thing. Yeah, it's very much just like oh yeah,
like I got it from here, like I'm not trying
to gate keep my life phone. Does I hear you
like it? Cool and you don't. That's also cool because

(47:04):
sometimes you feel weird being like hey, where'd you get that?
So I'm like, I'm saving you the awkward asking yeah
by just saying thanks, you know, Walmart Or My favorite
is like the very girl thing that you do when
like you're wearing a dress or something. You're like and
somebody's like, oh, I love your dress, and I'm like thanks,
it has pockets. Yeah, we get so excited we get pockets.
I know, it's so convenient. Yeah, they are. They're very convenient.

(47:26):
So that that was the thing, and uh, we we
got started on that from things. I was trying to
figure out where we were at. And this is our
timeline of the best bits. What are other things? Yeah,
I got nothing. I don't either. No, I got know
so many coming into this podcast. I lost all of them. No,

(47:46):
I do not remember. It's okay, we can. Well, you
know what we're gonna talk about is one thing that
you don't understand, and that is TV shows and movies. Okay,
I'm checking out you guys. I want to tell you something.
So this is coming in because lunch Box has a
new business idea that involves country artists and I'll just
leave that there. I wanted to know. So I just
started binge watching a show on Hulu called The Royals okay,

(48:10):
and it's from several years ago, like not several, probably
like six or seven, and it was on E for
a long time. I need to know if you've ever
watched a TV show and then realize you've already watched.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
It before, oh many times probably.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
Okay, So this is what happened to me. I like
started watching Royals on Who. It's really good, by the way,
Like I love it, and I'm in the second season
and I have like an aha moment. I'd had some
like deja vue, like I feel like I know these characters,
and then I have like some aha moment and I'm like, oh,
like crap, Morgan, you've watched this freaking show before and
you're just that you don't remember. No, I don't remember

(48:44):
like the whole part. I just remember like one very
specific piece of it, and it's like I blocked the
whole show for my memory. What in the world. No.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
A lot of times I do count on like Netflix
for saying you've already watched this right to tell me,
because I honestly think I did that.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
And I, well, I want if there's just so much
to consume that like I've just consumed so much that
I can't possibly remember all of these different plot lines
or whatever. Yeah, but like an entire show that I
just forgot that I watched once upon a time. I
started watching it because like, oh, this looks good. I've
never seen it. Uh huh Oh that's weird that it
didn't even didn't even know. I was like, I started

(49:20):
watching the trailer and I was like, oh, this looks
like something I would watch.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
So you I did watch it maybe, but the first
time you watched it, you were just kind of it
was just in the background, you know, like you were
like working or cleaning or you know.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
I mean that's how I watched for which everything. I mean,
well that's.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
True, but I was like, maybe you just really were
not focusing.

Speaker 1 (49:37):
I mean maybe, but like, do you think can you
recall any like pinpoint of a show that you're like, Oh,
I definitely didn't realize I watched this before.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
No, I actually just did this anatomy of a scandal?

Speaker 1 (49:45):
Have you seen that? Wait? Is it called scandal? No,
anatomy of a scale? Oh that's like it's like okay,
I think, yeah, well there's something called scandal, so I know,
big TV show, But.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
I don't know when this one came out, because I
know I've watched it twice, but I don't think it
was that long ago. So I'm like, I'm having issues
in my brain. If I already felt like a recent watch.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
It's not like it was like five years Atgolrton. This
was recent. There's something happening in my do you like
love yourself? You're like, oh, I found like a good
thing for me watch and you're like, well, no crap,
you're already found it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
I think I watched it when it first came out,
but I know I need to look at when it did.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
You haven't seen that. Though I've seen something you haven't,
I don't think, so what's it? But is it like
thriller murder s because listen, no, not my vibe Anatomy
of a scandaled Netflix. Let's see, let's see. Oh oh,
he's just like ooh, I'm you really like it. I
feel like I would like it. Oh wait, but it's
twenty twenty twenty two, so it was last year that

(50:42):
it came out. So I probably watched it when it
first came out, and then you just rewatched it recently.
Here's is even worse. At least might have like six
years in between. That's weird unless I'm having daytobee or so. No.
I did.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
No, I watched it again because I was like, ooh,
this looks good. And then I was like, no, I've
seen all of this.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Okay, so it's not weird. So it doesn't know. I
don't think it's our brains abby. I think we've just
had too much to consume and we don't realize that
we've already consumed certain things. Yeah, but I don't consume
very much. Okay, I'm trying to give a lot of life.
Unless you want to go to a brain doctor. Might
need to do that or get more sleep. This does
look good, though. This looks super interesting. I really think

(51:21):
you would like it. Sophie's privileged life as a wife
of a powerful politician James unravels when scandalous secrets surface
and he stands accused of a shocking crime. No, it's
so good that I watched it twice in one year,
but I want to watch it again. Did you like
it the second time? Yes? I loved it all right,

(51:42):
it was even better. See and I'm like in the
Royals and I'm like, oh, I already watched it, but like,
I'm still going to keep watching the rest of it
has four seasons. Yeah, why not exactly, But you make
me feel better about myself books. I really felt like, dang,
I'm an idiot. No, now I feel like an idiot
if mine was. I mean, you give yourself six years.
And I will say I did watch something new for
the very first time, genuinely, for the first time that

(52:04):
I really liked. I love the sci fi stuff, like
I'm all about Ready Player one upload on Amazon. It
was a great show. I'm like a free guy. Those
type of movies and those vibes are like my favorite
of all time. And so on our way to Austin,
I watched the first Pacific Rim and then on the
way back I watched the second Pacific Rim. Yeah, and

(52:25):
they were so good. How many are there are? Two? Two?
And maybe they come out with They ended the second
one like there could be a third one and maybe
it's close enough. These aren't like super older in like
the last five years, I think, so, I think they
could come out with a third one. But I loved them.
They're like right up my alley? Are they Like they
reminded me of Transformers, which is another movie series like,

(52:46):
especially when people when people question my nerdness, just listen
to me right now. I am a huge nerd. I
loved these for like the sci fi experience of them
and the way that they like kind of they were
remind me have Transformers in a sense, and that's one
of my favorite movie series. But so if you're looking
for something to watch and you like sci fi, I

(53:07):
don't think Abby's gonna be watching this. But if you're
out there and he likes sci fi and you like
the kind of things I'm talking about, and you haven't
seen Pacific rim like, are they the best of all time? No,
but they'll still give you that little itch that she
got to scratch for some sci fi technology action based movie.
Got you know?

Speaker 2 (53:23):
I did watch two movies on the way and coming
back from Austin.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
What did you watch? So?

Speaker 2 (53:28):
I watched Whitney Houston on the way there.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
Yes, well you tell me that so freaking good, so good,
because it's just fry. What didn't you cry? Didn't some
of you were crying from that? You're like the little
tear eyed No, the guy next to me was crying. Remember, Oh,
I do remember that. But you were I thought you
were a tear eyed, Like I thought it made you
kind of sad.

Speaker 2 (53:43):
Well, it is sad, like her story how it unfolds it.
She like had such a bright future and then like
getting married to this guy and it just went all
downhill and drugs and all that.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
So that was sad.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
Yeah, I mean she was really young, she was in
her forty eight I think, and like she.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
Had a daughter and everything like that was sad.

Speaker 2 (54:02):
But I just love movies that have like the music
in it because I love all her songs and so
she like sang all of them, and it was just
that was really good. Then on the way back, I
watched Deep Water Horizon.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
It was about like the oil.

Speaker 2 (54:13):
Spill, like the BP oil spill, Like it was very
like action, like it exploded.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
In the middle of the ocean and they always out
how to get real. It was a documentary. Yeah it's
based on a true story. Okay, so but it's a
true story. Yes, Like it was so good. Like I
love movies like that that are like real. Like that's
why I can't get into the sci fi because they're
not real, right, Like I just need it to be like.

Speaker 2 (54:35):
A real storyline. But this one was really good.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
See you like living in real life. I like living
in fantasy. That's what I picked up on that. That's
the difference. Yeah, that is the difference. Okay, what we
gotta give our ratings? What do you give the Whitney
Houston movie? Ooh, four out of five? Four out of
five okay, Whitney's Whitneys Microphones, okay, and then what about

(54:58):
deep Water Horizon? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (54:59):
That was oh dang, I would say four also, four
out of five or out of four oil spills dang?

Speaker 1 (55:06):
So good?

Speaker 2 (55:07):
Okay, maybe because I don't watch many movies still compare
it to but I really like them. Like I wanted
to go come home and watch Deepwater Horizon again.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
I do like watching movies on repea. I'm that weird person.
I'll watch them again, okay, because.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
That's how I am with Bridesmaids, you know that movie.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
Yeah, that's how I am.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
Every time it's on TV, I will watch it because
it's so hilarious.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
I feel like you have to have some of those
movies that you just love to put on though if
you don't middle a little so I go, you have
Cover and then mine's the Halloween that's weird. Still. Yeah, yeah,
you got a little bit of an in you Abby,
it's okay, is okay? I still accept you. This is
a weird balance we got going there. Okay, let's see

(55:48):
the first specific ram. I give a four and a
half out of five. Wow. Brain melding what wait, I
don't know how to explain it. Bring brain melting is
what they gotta called it. I know, sci fi, man,
but I have no idea what it's about. And then
I give the second one because the second the second

(56:09):
ones or never as good as the first one. I
give it a three and a half out of five.
Uh monsters Okay, Yeah, I actually was gonna watch one
of those on the way back, but I saw the
other one instead, the Pacific Rim. Yeah, you're used to
watch it kind of like it really good. Yeah, it's
still it's a little bit more real life than not,

(56:31):
because it's like it's the idea that an alien species
invades and they're like, how would they handle it? Which
is kind of crazy to think about because the whole
time I was sitting there like, dang, we really don't
know what we would do. See then I could probably
do that. Yeah, so they'll try this one. You could
you could potentially watch, but I know I give you
assignment and it's like a year later that you finally
watch it. So I'm not holding my breath.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
But okay, before the next podcast, I will watch it.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Okay, for sure. Deal. We had doctor Lori on this
week who evaluated Eddie's stuff that he thought was like
super valuable and listen, I love Eddie. What in the
world possessed him to be like, I have these glass
bottles and they're valuable. I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (57:13):
I saw them sitting there and I was like, wait,
what is this?

Speaker 1 (57:17):
Why would he ever think that? I don't know. Did
we talk about glass being valuable? I don't want Okay,
I think he just thought he had had him for
so long. They like people assume that when something's old,
it's valuable. No, I don't think that is. Those two
do not necessarily go together.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
No, but I think he did interesting class.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
But glass, okay, glass, so his glasses got not like
glasses seeing glasses like glasses that you'd put drinks in. Yeah,
so he got that evaluated. Do you have anything you
own that you think is super valuable or could be valuable?

Speaker 2 (57:53):
You know what I do have is well, my grandpa
gave me like gold coins. Oh yes, about ten years ago,
and so I'm just gonna hold on to them.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
But I feel like, well they are gold, so whatever
the price of gold. We did learn that because Eddie
had a silver coin. She's like it all matters on
the price of gold, which is crazy to think about
because you could have something now that's not worth anything,
but then like twenty years later, for whatever reason, like
silver or gold spikes, it could be worth hundreds.

Speaker 2 (58:26):
I also have a lot of barbies. I don't know
if those were ever Did we ever hear if those
are worth a lot?

Speaker 1 (58:33):
Did she say anything? I think she said it dependent
on the barbies kind of like the Beanie babies. Pretty
similar in that, like I had to have very specific
thing that's the most interesting about is they also have
to be in like mint condition, and they got to
have like especially like if you had barbies that are
like in the box and they were a special addition,
like I think there was like a beanie baby. There
was like a Princess Diana beanie baby, and if you

(58:53):
had that in mint condition, it was worth a lot.
I know I had that one too. I have Beanie
Baby too, same trust me, parents storage in it they
never got rid of anything. That's how mine are. Like everything.
I'm like, no, you never know what's gonna and I'm
very thing I get. I've always given them a hard time,
but I'm very thankful for it now, especially because a
lot of the clothes are like coming back in style.

(59:13):
I'm like, Mom, what she got in your closet? She
still ever clothes some of them?

Speaker 2 (59:17):
Yeah, Because I asked my mom, She's like, I got
rid of all of it. I was like, but all
of that is now back in style. She's like, I
wish I would have kept it because I could probably
wear it exactly.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
So she did still have a lot and that's why.
So that's her excuse now for everything. She's like, it's
gonna come back and style in like ten years, so
just keep it. And I'm like, okay, well we can't
keep everything. Yeah, I'm running out of space. Yes, so, yes,
I'm with you on those. What else is there? Ninja Turtles?
Is that gonna be? You collected Ninja Turtles? Yeah? Like,
what of the Ninja I never got I watched it,
but I never like got into Ninja Turtles like Action figures.

(59:48):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (59:48):
My brother collected all that like action figures like wrestlers,
WWE wrestlers and what Batman.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
And just wasn't there like a Gi Joe.

Speaker 2 (59:58):
Yeah, probably that all of that stuff that I really
didn't care about.

Speaker 1 (01:00:02):
But we do have it so well, and it's your brothers,
so you probably want to hold onto it for a while,
I would imagine. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, we'll probably
never get rid of this. Yeah, no, and you shouldn't.
I mean, there's certain things that you should always hold
onto and like you can pass down. It's really cool
to have like generational like something to pass down.

Speaker 2 (01:00:19):
Yes, that's also the reason that I keep everything. I'm like, what,
then my kids they can have toys that I played with, which.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Is really funny to think about though, because like, let's
be honest, when we do have kids, they're not gonna
want them. They're gonna be like, I want the new toy,
Like what's the new toy that they just saw on TV?
Especially with social media, they'd be like, oh that new
TV I want that, right.

Speaker 2 (01:00:38):
Like they'll maybe want like one doll, but they're not
gonna want this entire collection though. Yeah, they'll be like
I want this. I don't even know what's core right
now for kids toys, but it's sure not.

Speaker 1 (01:00:47):
Oh and it changes all the time. We have There
are some like my my niece is really into pollypockets,
which is something that I played with a lot growing up.
Polly Pockets.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Oh my gosh, do you think that's gonna be worth
a lot?

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
I doubt it. Well, no, they got rid of mine.
I had a abby. I had probably a collection as
big as a table. I loved pollypockets. That is all
I played with for several years. Like I loved them.
I still to this day, Like if I had that collection,
I would probably still play with it. I love pollypocket
and I would play all the games online that they
came out with or whatever. But yeah, I got actually
sold them one of our No. So somebody out there

(01:01:20):
is having a heyday with my polly pocket collection. I
hope they're having fun so too, because I really curated
a really great collection.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
Dang.

Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
Yeah, it was a bummer. It was sad. It was
in this very leopard case. Like I even had cases
for it. That's how many I had. I loved pollypocket, man.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
I think I have a few, but I don't think
I had like a full collection like that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
It's cool to see my knees playing with them. Now,
I'm like, dang, this is like full circle. It feels
like it is cool to watch that. But not very often.
I don't think that happens with old toys. I don't
think so. But barbies have stayed around. Polly Pockets did,
Ferbies didn't. We had a lot of ferbies.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
Furbies are weird. So their eyes h just the whole
thing about them.

Speaker 1 (01:02:03):
Do they talk or move their eyes? Did remember their
eyes with like blank and their kind of like little
ears would go, Yeah, we always had the big ones
that we'd buy, but then we'd always get the little
ones and the McDonald's Happy Meals.

Speaker 2 (01:02:13):
Oh yeah, those are cute.

Speaker 1 (01:02:15):
Yeah, so we had. We also have all of our
toys from the Happy meals. My mom kept all of those. Really,
there's like a bin of our Happy Meal toys and
those actually maybe were something because they're very vintage. M hmm,
that's true. Like what is one I'm trying to think
what what's an example of one of the toys. I mean,
it was always it was always relevant to pop culture.
So if you think about it, like the mini Furbies

(01:02:36):
or like they had many action figures for different things.
It just depended on whatever was going on at the time.
Like I'm gonna have to when I go home, maybe
for Christmas or whatever, I'll have to like show some
of the bins of things that we have. It's are crazy,
do it? Uh huh? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
See that that kind of stuff is what needs to
be brought in, not little glass.

Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
Sorry, Eddie. I'm just like, I don't know where he
got that. That would be worth a lot. But was
there something like as a kid that you ever collected
and you're like, oh, this is really cool and then
you look back and you're like, why did I collect that?

Speaker 2 (01:03:07):
Okay, this is probably weird, But I used to love
to play store, like on a cash register, yeah know,
and so I seriously collected cash registers, Like I even
got that for my birthday.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
I got like a legit one for my grandpa. But so,
how many cash registers do you have?

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
I probably have like seven now. I still have them,
like all different kinds. I had a Barbie one, like
what was my first one? And it would like scan,
you know, like it would like pretend scan and it
had like money you could put into it, and they
just got more advanced like every year, Like every year,
I got a new cash register and would play store.
See yeah, and then I got one that was red
like Target, and then it had the little beep beep.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
I don't know, that's so weird, that's funny. Did you
not do that? No? I loved it. We just would
like get invisible. It was like grocery store or like
grow ups, like where you're like act like you're married
or whatever, so stupid. Yeah, that would be on like
the playground and you're like playing I'm married to him,
like no, he's mine. And then you have kids, yes too,

(01:04:04):
the little baby dolls that act as the children. Yes,
that's hilarious. So like House played House, Yes, yeah that's
what it's called. Not family played House. But yeah, house
more than store though, but I like store better because
it's more fun, I know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
And then I also it was like a teacher and
I had a fake class, so I had like a
chalkboard on my wall and I would always ask my
first grade teacher. I was like, hey, can you make
like twenty copies of our assignment so I can take
it home to my class.

Speaker 1 (01:04:31):
And I would like act like.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
I'm a teacher and I remember getting mad at them,
like for talking.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
To all the invisible things. I'm like, hey, I'm writing
you up, John. It was so weird, Like it's so funny.
I was a kid. You just have this like imagination. Yeah.
I wish we all had like that imagination still though,
but it's just so fun I know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
It was just like that innocent, like you're easily amused. Also,
like you don't need technology to keep you preoccupied, Like
I was just downstairs by myself like all day, just
teaching this fake class.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
I'm like, you know, they answered, Julie, that's wrong. How
many times do you think our parents were like, my
kid is loosing their minds because like they've talked to
all these invisible things. Yes, I think.

Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
About that a lot. I'm like, man, my parents probably
thought I was insane.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
You know. I hate speaking of the of the insane thing,
the dream that I have. So I'm assuming you wanted
to be a teacher or a cast register like this person.
I still want to be a cashier. I still do.

Speaker 2 (01:05:29):
I keep saying that. I'm like, at some point in
my life.

Speaker 1 (01:05:31):
Wait, when you were a server, why didn't you do
the to go?

Speaker 2 (01:05:34):
I wonder that No, I was like, why didn't I
work at like Target or something over being a server?
I would have enjoyed it so much more. I still
wonder that to this day. I think I wanted tips,
but I didn't get the tips, so it didn't matter.
You like I wanted to make the money, Yes, but
I go, but I always do the self checkout.

Speaker 1 (01:05:50):
Not familiar. You're a little uh, your little itch scratched.
I literally love it. That's so fun. Twenty years from now,
we're on the abbey. In all our Target stories, it
was gonna be me, how are you today? Did you
find everything? Okay? Honestly, like, there's not many times I'd
be like, I can see it, but I could see

(01:06:10):
and because I have a red but you are where
I know right now, that doesn't help, so I can go.
I'm a Target employee, you are right now. There's there's
photos of me. I would line up all my animals.
I love stuffed animals. I loved leopards and I love monkeys,
and I had multiples of them, and I would line
them all up and I would sing to They're so cute.

(01:06:30):
There are picture evidence of that happening, and I thought
that I was a star. Me and my hair brush
and all my animals. I love that to be a singer,
and that was me. They loved it. They thought I
was a star. That's all that matters. They did. But

(01:06:50):
I also collected every time we travel, you know, when
you like somebody comes up with an idea of like
something you want to get from each place you go.
Do not ask me why I loved playing cards. Like
whenever we'd get babysat, I'd always play cards with my babysitters,
like i'd play war. And I loved card games and
I still do. I still love board games and everything.
But every time we go to a place, I'd collect

(01:07:11):
cards from place playing cards. Yes, you just have all
these decks of cards, Yeah, from Jamaica or like California.
And I'm like, I have a whole like gallon storage
bag of playing cards. And there's like mini versions and
then there's huge versions, and I'm like, why on earth
did anybody allow me to collect playing cards? Why? I

(01:07:35):
don't even know where they are at this point. I'm
sure they are somewhere in our storage unit.

Speaker 2 (01:07:39):
That is like really random, Like why because it's not
like there are things that I could have chosen to
collect yeah, because it's not like they're on display. Like no,
I like to buy shot glasses sometimes, you know, And
I used to do like the penny, the smash penny.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Yes, those were cool. Thosees were cool.

Speaker 2 (01:07:56):
Yeah, but like I'm playing cards.

Speaker 1 (01:07:59):
Don't ask me. And it was it became a thing
like I'm not kidding you. I have at least probably
twenty five of them from like just different places we'd go. Yeah,
and every time it would be like my mission, I'd
be like, Okay, I gotta get my plane. Cards. I
never play. I would never let me play with them either.
Like you're like, don't mess them up. They can they
can't be bent. Like sorry mom and dad that I've

(01:08:20):
made them spend money on these souvenirs that I never used.

Speaker 2 (01:08:25):
You know what you could do almost at this point
you take one from each deck and now you can
just put it all into one deck, true or like.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
Two because you have like half so you can do
two from each one. And now you just have one
deck of all deck and they get rid of all
the rest. I mean you could, but now you don't
have to get rid of it. Because that's a great idea.
That's a way to like salvage those because genuinely, they're
never going I'm not abby. There's many ones. They're the
sizes of my palm is how many? Like what was
I thinking? I don't know? Yeah, what are you gonna

(01:08:54):
do it? Yeah? If you want to, that's a good idea.
You know, you had a good idea. Hey, there we go.
I like it. Well, we were coming in at the
number one spot. We had Dan and Shay on the
show this week and they shared a lot of life
updates for us. You got any like life updates going
on right now you want to talk about? Not really.

Speaker 2 (01:09:13):
My brother's birthday is today May nineteen, he'd be thirty seven,
And so yeah, it's just been kinda like hard because
I was looking at pictures, you know, and the last
time I actually talked to him was his birthday two
years ago. And so it's just sometimes weird because we've
had like so much going on and like so many
fun moments that it's like when I am alone and

(01:09:37):
it like sinks in, Like it's like really hard. Like
I cried a lot last night, Like my eyes are
kind of like puffy, and it's sometimes you feel like
you're putting on an act.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
You know that you have to be like happy all.

Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
The time, and of course I don't really show those
moments on social media, and so I just like, I
don't know just if anyone else is like going through it.
It's like it's okay to be happy and have joy
and to grieve at the same time, because yeah, I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
I mean, yeah, it's super powerful to feel that way.
And I can't imagine what that must feel like for you.
You know, I'm not even gonna try and pretend to
know what that's like. But I sympathize, and I can
see it in your voice and how you're talking and
how that feels. And I think grief is so much
associated with time, but it's like time never really makes

(01:10:28):
it any better. It just puts space in between it, right,
you know, everybody's always like when you grieve something, it's
like time heals everything. I don't think it heals anything.
I think it just genuinely puts space in between what
happened that you can at least start to like move
in steps in a different direction. It's not like you

(01:10:48):
move forward and it's not like you have healed from it.
It's like it's always there. You just have space from it. Yeah,
is really more what time does. And I feel like
that's probably where you're at. It's like there's space there.
But that's also why, like the anniversaries, in the moments
where it comes up and the memories are always going
to be hard, and they should be because you know,

(01:11:10):
my greatest thing that when I talk to my mom about,
like and it's not anywhere near the same, but like
for my mom, it was when she she lost our
family dog last year and we just dealt with the
first anniversary of that, and you you look at it
in a perspective of like, how cool is it that

(01:11:31):
I'm so sad because I had something so big of
love in my life and not a lot of people
get to experience that. But it feels very twisted to
feel that way, right, You're like, yeah, I should feel
so happy that I had so much love and this
whole connection and this thing that feels so important, But
it's like, why I don't want to feel happy about it.

(01:11:52):
I want to feel sad about it. Yeah, it's so weird.

Speaker 2 (01:11:54):
It's like you're trying to convince yourself to feel a
certain way, like you're kind of in denial that but
It's like if you don't look at it that way,
then you're just it's going to eat you alive. Basically,
if you don't have a different perspective and know that
it was a good thing, then yeah, you'll just be
depressed and you don't want and they wouldn't want that either,

(01:12:15):
you know, like they would want you to be living
and have these good memories and not be sad.

Speaker 1 (01:12:20):
So remember the good things. Yeah about what all of
that was. But it is grief is like this this
crazy monster that it could like, I mean, you know,
we see news stories of like people dying of broken hearts,
and I wholeheartily believe that like you could just allow
yourself to kind of drift away if you didn't take
care of yourself after grief happens and after you go

(01:12:43):
through something.

Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
Yeah, And like that's why I think my mom visits
so much, because I know, I mean, like my parents,
they they're struggling with it obviously because they loved.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
Him so much.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
And so I try to give them like as much
as I can and like happy and fun moments and
memories because I know how hard it is. So I
think that's why she visits all the time.

Speaker 1 (01:13:04):
She's going to come for CMAFS too. So but it's
good for both of you guys, because it's you know,
there is no silver lining of it, but it is
that it's brought you guys closer to spend more time
together and understand the value of life. You know. I
think when you, especially as you get older, you just
realize that it really is moving as fast as everybody
says it does. And you're like, how and how is

(01:13:26):
this already happening? How has this already happened in this moment,
And you're like, well, it's not far from me, and
you start to think of a whole lot of things. Yes,
and so at least it's given you guys the perspective
of we need to spend more time together now.

Speaker 2 (01:13:40):
Uh huh no, that is one hundred percent yes. And
that's why even like the travel thing, how it's like, oh,
I'll do it later. It's like we take it for
granted so much that we have a later. It's like
we're not guaranteed anything. We can't like take our time
for granted and be like oh it's okay, I'll get
to it or you know, I'll talk to this person later.
It's like why don't you treat it like you don't

(01:14:02):
and like call them now, you know, tell them things,
because there's a lot of things I wish I would
have told him then that I never did. And that
also really bothers me. That's something that bothers me all
the time, like why didn't I say this? Why didn't
I do this? So it's just like a reminder to
like live a different way and like focus on what
really matters in the moment.

Speaker 1 (01:14:23):
Do you ever at least like kind of write those
things down so you feel like you can kind of
tell him wherever he may be, like you know what
I mean, Like it's kind of a letter to him.
I should write him down.

Speaker 2 (01:14:33):
I do that a lot in the car, you know,
when I'm driving, just like out in the country or
something like, I like talk to him. And what's really
weird about that is when I'm driving, I turn it
on the classic rock station because he love classic rock
and his favorite band was Metallica, And then like a
song comes on, a Metallica song, and I'm like, oh
my gosh, like that gets I'm just like he's here
like listening. It's so weird and stuff like that. It's

(01:14:54):
like the signs that Amy talks about all the time.
Like that is when I believe in signs, because I'm like,
what are the odds that song would come on right now?
Like I feel like he's like saying, you know, it's
gonna be okay, So.

Speaker 1 (01:15:04):
When I think, you know, we joke about the signs
and stuff a lot, but I think signs are a
way for people who are grieving to feel connected. And
that's why, like I feel for Amy, I feel for
you especially if you feel those in experience those, because
that's that's your way of connecting to them. Like the
physical being of them isn't here anymore, and so you
found like a physical thing that is here that does

(01:15:27):
allow you to connect with them. And I think that's
beautiful because it's so cool. We don't understand life. We
don't understand how it works. We like to think we do,
we don't, you know, So like, if that helps you
feel connected to them, especially somebody that you've lost and
you loved so dearly, who am I to say that
didn't happen, you know, like wholeheartedly yes, And I hope

(01:15:50):
you keep getting the million and one signs that allow
you to have those moments because I do think it's real.
I think it's very real. Those feelings you get are
very real. So yeah, and I bet he's going to
do it even more. He's going to keep playing rock
songs everywhere you go. I know. Yeah, it's weird how
that stuff happens. It really does. And like when I
went to where was it was.

Speaker 2 (01:16:10):
It Luke Homb's concert, I think or Kane Brown one
of them. They sang simple Man a cover of it,
and that's that was like his song, you know, it
like described him perfectly, and so I was like, in
moments like that too, I'm just.

Speaker 1 (01:16:21):
Like, he's here.

Speaker 2 (01:16:22):
So it's stuff like that that I guess is comforting,
but it's still sad at the same time because you're like, oh,
I wish he was here.

Speaker 1 (01:16:28):
It is so very grief is very twisted, and that's
the best way to describe it because it is on
no level does anybody understand grief and what it does
to people. So you know, I feel for you right now,
and I Happy birthday to him. I know it's still
important to celebrate the happy birthdays and the times that

(01:16:49):
stuff you guys would have done and things that you
wish you could have done with him. You still do them.
You do them with your parents, and it's like those
are the moments he'll be with you and he'll he'll
come along for the ride. I know. Thank you. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:17:01):
Yeah, So that's what's going on in my life. Just
you know, there's ups and downs. So but that's life.
I guess you know, it's not always up.

Speaker 1 (01:17:09):
That's well, you know what to make you smile and
yes in this on like a happy note, I want
to so my sister. It's a very known thing that
I don't speak very well. I messed up my word
it is. I'm just I messed up my words or
I say things the wrong way. It's just part of
my personality at this point. But she sent me an

(01:17:29):
article and I just have to like read some of
these with you. It says it's the article is twenty
people who had a really hard time with the English language.
Oh could you relate to all of these? Honestly, I
just laughed so hard. She's like she's texting me, texted
it to me and she was like, I hope this
makes you smile as much as it made me. Because
she's a speech pathologist, which is the hilarious irony of

(01:17:51):
Oh that's so funny and ironic. Yes, yes, And I
literally text her back I said, these are my people.
I feel these people. So somebody treated f what's the
name for rattos? I'm telling you of these will make
you laugh. Yes, what did you get to eat last night?
And somebody goes shrimps camping. I don't know how to

(01:18:12):
smell it. Scamp Oh my gosh, hilarious, I said. A
German Man just came into the pub and tried to
ask for colt. Of course, I try to say that
cutlery like forks and stuff, but ended up saying I
need some food weapons and I will now be referring
to them by nothing else. I this is like a

(01:18:35):
It looks like a thread from Reddit. Maybe it says
I'm at a deptist teeth man trying to say dentists.
These are great. And somebody had to write marshmallows for
like your grocery store tag and it says Masha Moalla,
I think I would do that. Do that one right,

(01:18:56):
and then this one is anyone else here like pizza, pize, pizza,
Peter Paster, pizza, triangle food with topping. This is so
you how funny. Are these lay? Am I wrong? No?

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
They are definitely hilarious because I can see like this
goes on in your brain.

Speaker 1 (01:19:14):
But yes, they're like, you can't tell me none of
this has ever happened for you, where you're just like, dang,
I forgot that word? Yes, and you cut like I'm
not clever enough to come up with other things. I
just forget things entirely. See.

Speaker 2 (01:19:24):
That's why I was like, man, these are very clever.
I don't that doesn't kind I just skip it because
I get annoyed. I'm like, well, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:19:30):
Yep, that's me. This one is I forgot what the
words expiration date were and just asked for the statue
of limitations on this milk. Did you go to the
Did you go to the liquid zoo where you can
walk inside? You mean aquarium? Yes, it's an aquarium, not
a liquid zoo. Liquid I've never heard of liquid zoo,

(01:19:54):
but I like it. I actually I like that. I'll
use liquid zoo and food weapons my whole life. Oh man,
what's your major communication? This is a text. What's your
major communication is yours? I'm doing biology. I want to
be a pedestrian A what like I want to be
a doctor for kids, a poet. Wait, he wrote pedestrian

Speaker 2 (01:20:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:20:21):
God, the peas really get me, man, I'm this is
why I'm laughing. I'm like these people. Pediatrician is what
he was trying to say, But he said pedestrian p dietrist.
And then somebody spelled clan saw in Google as q

have tears in my eyes. I'm go. This one is
meant to say hold on for a second and give
me a minute to a custom, and it came out
as hold me.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
For a second, hold me for a second.

Speaker 1 (01:21:07):
I mean, this one's a tweet, honestly. Our last night
I couldn't remember the word for trombone, so I said
big brass, slide whistle. I love people. This is the
site of humanity that I love.

Speaker 2 (01:21:21):
Same like it's hilarious we're not perfect and we don't
know what we're saying.

Speaker 1 (01:21:29):
Oh my gosh, this one is hilarious. Is for Reddit
and it's somebody writing the question how do you spell?
And they spell They're trying to spell pharmaceutical and they
spell the pharm f A R M A S E
W D I C K E l oh my pharmaceutical
and the person writes, the dictionary isn't helping me. When

(01:21:50):
I Google it shows no results. I want to text
my mom that I want to try therapy and other
natural things before I try pharmaceutical mets. And somebody just
responds to the one word pharmaceutical but it literally looks
like farm as a diggle is what the word spells
out to look like. Yeah, this is great. These are
my people. They are hilarious. I love them. So I'm

(01:22:10):
trying to find this one, but I can't find it. Okay,
what's the what is the relation? Because I may have
said it before and I might be able to.

Speaker 2 (01:22:16):
Well, that's the thing. It's like when they're saying, Oh,
I really don't know. I'm really trying to find it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:22):
I bet there's a lot more of these, and I
bet people have had these moments it's just nobody likes
to share them online. And I'm glad all these people
did for the sanctity of me feeling connected to.

Speaker 2 (01:22:33):
Yeah seriously, Yeah, no I can't find it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:37):
You're gonna find it and just post it on Instagram story. Okay,
make sure we'll make sure we we talked about it. Yeah,
I will.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
Yeah, any other updates for you life updates?

Speaker 1 (01:22:50):
I decided So I think it was a few weeks ago.
I had Eddie on it might have been last weekend,
and we talked about Bumble Premium, and I decided to
buy it for a week. No, you didn't, hold on?
Tell me what's that mean? Listen? I didn't want to
buy it because it's so expensive. And then it like
popped up and it was like you can try it
for five dollars for a week, and I was like, oh,
I'll try it for five dollars before I don't try
it's like thirty dollars for a week. I'm not doing that.

(01:23:13):
But let me tell you it's more confusing because now
I'm just I have three nine hundred and fifty likes
to go through.

Speaker 2 (01:23:22):
Oh I'm so overwhelmed. What So it just means you
get unlimited.

Speaker 1 (01:23:26):
No, you can see who all liked you. Oh, and
then you can choose to like swipe on them and
it's an immediate connection instead of going to the main
page where it's like you're swiping right or left. Yeah,
I have three, nine and fifty. Hold on.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
I do have a question though, when they like you,
are they in your parameters or are they just anybody?
Like do they have to be within a certain you know.

Speaker 1 (01:23:49):
They still have to be within parameters unless they're using
travel mode. Some people if they bought like full blown premium,
you can do travel mode and you can be anywhere.
I don't know why people do that, by the way,
like don't understand.

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
But I mean, like in the age range and everything,
like it's still still in my parameters.

Speaker 1 (01:24:04):
Okay, that's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're seeing a lot
of thirty year olds because I'm trying at least a
little bit. I do my age and then like I
think it's till like thirty seven. Okay, I think it's
what I did, and that was like the max. Yeah.
But yeah, and like so if I hit on any
single one of these, it would immediately connect because they
already liked me. So now I have to either decide
yes or no. So you have so basically I have

(01:24:25):
a curated the like s white page. Oh, I don't
know if I like that? Do you like that? I
don't really know. It feels very overwhelming because every time
I like, do a few of them, there's more that
pops up and I'm like, oh.

Speaker 2 (01:24:38):
Nah, have you been on any dates?

Speaker 1 (01:24:41):
No? Oh, you haven't. Listen listen. I started talking with
a guy yesterday and I learned that he was living
between here in Indianapolis. And I was like, sir, you
did not expose that. You didn't A're not exposed. You
did not want to go word? You did not. No,
I don't what is it? You know what I'm trying

(01:25:02):
to say? Up front? You didn't like disclosed It was
the same same you did not disclose this information when
I swiped with you. Why do they do that?

Speaker 2 (01:25:14):
I don't like You're gonna find out later and it
makes it worse. Just say it up front.

Speaker 1 (01:25:18):
Ah. Oh, So then you're trying to be somebody's tour
guide when they first move here.

Speaker 2 (01:25:22):
Yeah, ain't nobody got time for that.

Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
I got a lot of X At this point, I'm
about to turn thirty. I got a lot of X Okay,
like it's hard to find one. I do have a
decent amount that I've swiped right on, but like there's
just a decent amount that like when I get to
the point of talking to them, I'm like, ick, yeah,
I'm still going through that phase. There hasn't been anybody
that's like popped out unicorn wise that I'm like, this
is worth going on dates for, not even worth texting.

Speaker 2 (01:25:45):
Honestly, then it's yeah, that's good that you know that, though,
because a lot of people just you waste so much
time just being like, oh, I'll try it out, or
you know, or I'm bored, I'll just talk to them.

Speaker 1 (01:25:54):
Now, there's one thing I will not do. It is
when I'm bored or lonely. I will not date to
date because I will will go on dates because I
know that I need to be putting myself out there
and I need to like broaden my horizon. But I
will not date because I'm lonely or bored, because every
time I think about that, I'm like, no, because I'd
rather be bored and lonely than be dealing with some

(01:26:16):
man yelling at me for who knows what. Because I
decided to date the wrong dude boom. Can we just say,
Mike drop on that please? Oh my gosh, same or
be getting cheated on? You know, there's a lot of
variables on that side.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
So oh yeah, I'd so much rather be lonely yeah
and bored yeah than any of the other stuff that
they're wasting my time for.

Speaker 1 (01:26:36):
Exactly. So that's why, as of right now, nobody's been
unicorned enough that I've been wanted to go on a date. Good. Well,
I mean, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:26:45):
I'm not sure it didn't mean good, But I'm glad
you're not just going out with everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:26:50):
But I believe it. It is happening soon. I do you
believe it? Can you manifest that from because I'm tired?
I am when you least expect it. Oh, I hate
that line. I was gonna say, I'm not punching. Sorry.
