Speaker 1 (00:00):
Blogs are audio journals, like for writing in our diaries, Paulina, Yes, take.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
It away, thank you so much, dear blog. Uh yeah,
So you guys know, when you go to the doctor
or wherever you go, right, even when you get like
boat talks or whatever, they'll be like, oh, who's your
emergency contact? And I always hated that question because I
don't know what scares me, Like what emergency about to
go down?

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Right, you know, like what do you think is gonna happen?
What are we thinking?

Speaker 2 (00:24):
So then I realized that I don't know if I'm
just kind of wired this way at this point because
I am thirty two years old, i am married. I've
been married for like a year and a half, technically
been with the person for about four years. Stille, though,
my emergency contact is and probably forever is gonna be

(00:45):
my mom and I can't go and change it. And
I actually feel silly putting another man's name, like I
can't i'm that man name, Like he's not my dad obviously,
I mean that's a whole the conversation because my dad
never made the cut anyway. But it's like I'm just
so used to my mom and like that's in my eyes,
that's my emergency contact.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Yes, and then I look at.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
It and I'm just like man like, But technically he's
my family now like when you get married, that's your
new family.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
And we have a child.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Yes, they made a human with me, so technically he
is family. Are you.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
The eye's the lord? He is my family, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
And like I love my husband, like I picked, I
picked a great man. However, that man is not going
to make the car when it comes to my emergency contact.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Really, because I would think that your husband, the father
of your child with whom you share a residence, correct,
would need to be the first person to get the call.
I would think not your mom, and March is going
to kill me for that. But because my mom is
listening out, probably screaming going no, no, no, no no, I
don't care if you get married, that that'd be can

(01:50):
learn second after me if something happened, that would be
my mom's attitude about this. But I think it should
probably be your spouse.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
It should be like keywords should however, you.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Know Gigi, my daughter, I think that could.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
Be her emergency contact. Actually I'm number one, call me.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
First, girl, like I'm mom, call me, But you know
put dad on there too. That's her father, like Hobby
is my husband and fighter piece, the best emergency contact
ever that you could ever call.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
He's the best. He is the emergency content for all
of them.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
He has better during birth though, honestly, be honest, who
was more helpful during birth?

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Honestly, they're both good. He just was very quiet.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
I mean he's always quiet, but he was very quiet,
like he wanted to cut out. I was gonna say yeah,
but he held it together. My mom was doing breathing.
She almost passed out from breathe.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
It was right. I don't know, some kind of skit
she was doing. I'm going with mom.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
That's an excellent point. The man is a fireman, like,
that's an excellent point. Like by definition, he is the
he is, he's the person the emergency contact call is
that girls.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Like fire outfit.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Right, No, I understand, but like to be honest too, though,
I am.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Gonna do like the whole double standard thing.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
He better I better be his, like, I better be
his emergency contact.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
How to do CPR, No, this man knows how to
do CPR. You know how to carry you out of
a hot building. But you want them to call Martinsarts.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Building.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
She was in her womb. Nobody knows her like her mama,
thank you. See, it's like it's a mom thing.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
I'm very connected to her, like I don't know. I
just I want my.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Mom to always be that that emergency contact.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I just I wonder I wonder this. And I don't
know who should call our lawyer friend Morgan or not.
But I wonder how often it happens that people put
like as a beneficiary, because you normally it would be
that if you're married, I would think the beneficiary of
like your life insurance or whatever money at work, or
you'll four oh one k or whatever it is, that

(03:50):
that would go to your significant other. I think is
usually the way that works. Probably if you're married, the
same person who is your emergency content. I wonder how
often it happens so like mine is my for everything
is my mom because I'm not married. I wonder if
people ever forget to change that, you know what I mean? Like, oh,
I don't know, because last time I filled out who

(04:11):
the person beneficiary for my four oh one k was
was like maybe you do it every year. I'm not sure,
but I don't know. I just click through it because
it hasn't changed. So what happens if I get married
and then God forbids something happens to me, I'm in
a hot building and Hobby doesn't come save me, and
then my mom gets paid out, and then you know,
my wife is like, well, if I had one, we'd

(04:32):
be like, hey, where's that dough? You know, like I
got to pay bills and stuff. I wonder if that
ever happens where the person's like, well, I'm I was
the contact, I was the beneficiary goes to me and
then they can't.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
That's a good question, because we do what a selective
enrollment whatever elected rollment, we do that.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
And I actually changed mine to Hobby shocker.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
I did from my mom to Hobby because I was like, well,
you know, I want you to like obviously care for
our daughter. God for a bit, something happens, But honestly,
don't think I'm changed on his.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
And I don't like that. I trust it.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I trust my in laws with my life, like they
are amazing. I want the lottery with my in laws.
But at the end of the day, I'm like, all right,
you know, like we got to make sure we are
good in that way.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
We are set.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
I love my in laws, but let's make sure that
comes to me. I know what I'm saying, give me untimely.
You know he's amassing of my husband. Let's let's make
sure that. But if I die, let's make sure that
money goes to Mama Martina. Okay, good, I'm more.
