Speaker 1 (00:00):
They talk better than they These are the radio blogs
on the Fresh Show. A right, I like writing in
our diaries, except we say them aloud. We call them blogs.
I'm going to do one today, deer blog. And I'm
not sure if anyone has ever been in this situation before.
But so last week, of course, was the holiday, and
(00:20):
we were off and my sister had the baptism for Mayve,
my almost one year old niece, and so we were
in Dallas at the beginning of it, and we did
the baptism thing and that was very nice. And then
normally we would travel to we go to the same place.
It's like a beach vacation. We go, and we've gone
(00:41):
every year for like twenty something years. We didn't go.
This year's plans got a little messed up. But like
for my parents, this is their one vacation a year
that they take and they invite everybody to come from
the family and it's fun. And it originally started because
we were trying to avoid certain family members and so
we literally just isolated ourselves to it an island where
certain people couldn't find us. Literally that was how this started.
(01:03):
It was it was it was to partition ourselves away
from members of the family that were required to be
included because my grandparents mandated it, and then my mom
of course had to host it too. So it was like,
in your house, you do the work, you do And
I love my grandparents, all right, Pete, but it was
you do the work, you do everything. And by the way,
we're inviting some folks that you do not like to
(01:23):
be in your home, well, because it's Thanksgiving. So anyway,
that got snapho and my sister's like, now we're having
Thanksgiving in Dallas and have a nice Thanksgiving. Basically I
don't have enough room for everybody, which I love her,
but it's kind of true. She has a kind of
a small house. So we wind up going third wheeling,
your boy, you're third wheeling with my parents, as I
have been doing for decades now, to California, to Malibu
(01:48):
outside of LA and we stayed in a hotel and
my mom planned all of this. It was like, you
got your own room and want you to come with us,
you know, so you know, cause I don't know where
they I don't know where they I was supposed to
go and Thanksgiving because if I don't hang out with them,
I don't know where I'm supposed to go, and so we
show up to this place and I just have to
just say it like it is. This is a very
nice hotel on the beach, very very nice. This was
(02:10):
a this is a place you take someone to have
an affair. This was a sex hotel. Now it wasn't
if you're in the Chicago Land area, this wasn't Ciberis.
It wasn't like an actual like by the our sex
rental hotel that someone's parents on this show used to
go to when someone on this show was a child. Yes,
and that's traumatic now that you know what they what
(02:32):
they were doing when they went there.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Now that I'm aware of what happens there, and.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
If you don't know, if again, if you're unfamiliar with
the Siberis, I would encourage you, if you're above over
the age of eighteen, to google what that is. It's
a it's a it's a slip and slide extravaganza. It's
a room with a shaky bed in a hot tub,
and it's or a hotel with rooms that have I
mean it is you go there to do that mirrors
and lads, yeah, swings and know into a garage and
(02:57):
you're right into the next door is the hotel room.
And none of you have ever been there. No, but
it's like even designed for discretion. Yes, like design No,
a little too fast right, so that people don't know
you're there. Even so, it wasn't that kind of hotel,
but it was like it was a sex It was
a very sexy hotel. Like this is absolutely a place
that you take someone to beat romantic. I had a
(03:19):
vibrating bed. No, I was a microwave in there. I
wish I did. No, But the hotel I was at prior,
I saw a microwave in the hallway, and that's how
I knew you were there. I was like, Kiki came
to the baptism. Oh my god, she really just trying
to get in the will. There was a microwave in
the hallway. Actually, that's how I knew you weren't there,
because you would have picked that thing up, yeah, and
put it in your room. I literally put that on
(03:40):
my story. I'm walking down the hallway of this first
hotel and I'm like, this is a microwave in the hallway.
I'm like, Kiky's here.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Everybody knows I love a microwave in my hotel.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's a birthday surprise. But like there were it was
all couples. There was like an old guy and a
very young, very hot girl there. I mean, this is
this is absolutely the place that you take your girlfriend,
not your wife. And here I am just cruising around
my parents at this place. And it was kind of
awkward because then they're talking about how they used to
go there when I was a kid. I'm like, well,
I know what was happening. You know, did you ever
(04:11):
stay in this room? I hope not. It was it
was just weird. It was it was weird, and it
just made me feel very alone because I needed I
felt like I needed to be doing what everyone else
was doing at this place, which was just it. Yeah yeah,
but I'm not sure I have you guys, I ever
felt completely out of place? Like have you ever been
like on a romantic I almost felt like I was
(04:33):
crashing my parents romance, Like I think I should have laughed,
like I should have just gone back to it. I'll
see in Arizona, like I'll be there. I'm gonna go
get a turkey sandwich or something. And this is not
to make me feel bad. I'm just like I'm third
wheeling my parents at this very sexy, romantic place, and
I felt like, I don't know, I felt a little inferior,
like I needed to get on bumble real fast and
(04:54):
find somebody, you know what I mean? No, no, no,
But you guys, have ever been e like been invited
to something and you're like, oh god, this is absolutely
a couple's affair. I mean most of you, most of
you are in couples so or part of a couple,
so I guess it wouldn't matter.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yeah, I don't go ahead, people, I'll just say I
haven't been in a relationship ever, pretty much like I mean.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Well, you're married, so, but.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
IED's a marriage. I swear like my little boyfriends, like
you know, like my little rug dealer boyfriend, Like that
wasn't serious.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
That was a bit of going. Should be taking you
to these nice places. He was a street pharmacist.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yes, we learned that today, a street pharmacist, So shout
out to them.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
This dude was flushed.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Should have been taken you to everywhere you think he would.
Apparently business was bad, but that's okay. So I feel
like I always make myself at home though with any
couples because I was always a single girl, Like I
would just make myself at home, like you don't hang out,
I'm gonna come with you, guys. I'm gonna chit chat,
We're gonna yap. I never wanted to fill out of place,
so I feel like I kind of like immersed myself
into that.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Okay, yeah, I mean I love I do love to
a third wheel. It's never made me feel weird. But
the part I resonated with your story is I think
it was over COVID, Like in my Thanksgiving plans like
finally changed, like when there finally was like a different
plan for it felt very odd and I don't remember
where my parents were, but for some reason I couldn't
be with them, and so I had to do Thanksgiving
(06:11):
with a friend, you know, and like we cooked and stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
But that's odd.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
I mean, your tradition was like the same thing for
so long. That was the part that I felt weirder about.
I think it was just a big emboldened acknowledgment that
I probably should just just throw the talent and get
married or something, because I was just I just felt like, Okay,
one of these kids is not like the other, like
it's probably time, you know, right, Yeah, that's a reason
(06:40):
to get a relationship, though I'm.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Not saying that's the reason. I'm saying that, like, Okay,
I'm the only one, Like maybe I didn't need to
get my act together here, Like I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
You are together? Like what are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Well, I just mean it's enough is enough? Come on,
enough is enough being the only guy at the party
that is on coupled consciously uncoupled. So like, what did you.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Do like when they were off or whatever would you
do at this whole Oh no, I just you drank it.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
I just went everywhere with I did everything they did. Well.
The funny thing is, I think my mom was more
excited to be hanging out with me than my dad.
She hangs out with him all the time. Look, I'll
be honest, I don't hope my parents again lived to
be four thousand years old. But you know, I cherished
the time because it's very rare that I get isolated
time with them both exactly without my parents and the
(07:29):
grandkids and all the distractions. So I'm grateful for that,
but it's all It was also just just big sort
of like I just felt like someone's supposed to At
this point in my life, someone's supposed to be doing
this with me, and I don't know who that person is.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
According to who though, what's supposed to.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Well, I agree, but I guess it's there are times
where you just feel that void. Yeah, and that was
one of the times where I'm like, this could be
so much better and more balanced if I wasn't just
in a room eating everyone's chocolates that were on the pillow.
You know, it's a waste of a hotel, hotel room
(08:07):
for you know what I mean, it's really sexy hotel room. Yeah,
those views were sexy. You Posted's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Your parents can waste of time, you know, you know,
