Second Date Update and the Dirty on the thirty Mojo
Shannon keV All hanging out here with everybody together. We're
excited that you guys are with us and joining us today. Shannon,
this is a big moment for you because it kind
of remembers a little bit of what you had at
(00:21):
this time. But your daughter, I can't believe I'm saying this,
like this is going to make me feel like really old.
Lucy has her first job. How is that? It's unbelievable.
She's a stockbroker on the New York Stock Exchange. Honestly,
do you ever look at your kids. Do you look
(00:43):
at your kids and say to yourself, Smith is going
to be, you know, a lawyer, Lucy's going to be
a doctor. Because I used to look at my kids like,
first off, I never thought that a my oldest son
would go into radio. I never thought that. I kind
of prated he didn't, but he's doing great. And then
I got a middle son who's gonna be a doctor
in psychology, Like I never thought that.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
It's nice.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah, I mean, I knew Jacob would do something great,
but that's amazing, and he's going to be helping people,
helping the world.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
And then Luke a drug dealer. He got everything. He'll
own a medicinal marijuana.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Or I don't know, make a billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Did you ever look at your kids and wonder what
they're going to do in life?
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Absolutely. I think Smith, who is a is going to
do something really creative, like he'll be honestly, he'll be
like a famous fashion designer or something. Knowing him, Lucy
loves building and stuff, so I could see her being
I don't know, and like an architect or an engineer
like that. Her brain works that way. She loves legos
(01:42):
and drawing things and so, but she is not going
to do any of those things today. She is not
a stockbroker obviously. But she has her first baby sitting
job today, okay, and she last day when were going
to bed, she's so excited and so nervous at the
same time. She's watching one of my best girlfriend's five
year old dog while my friend goes to get her haircut.
(02:02):
And they live in the neighborhood like a couple of
streets over and it'll probably be for an hour. But
for Lucy, this is a really really big deal that
she has her very first babysitting job. And as I
was going to bed last night, I kept thinking to myself,
I remember my first babysitting job and it did not
go well. So I hope that Lucy's day today goes
(02:23):
better than my first. And I was probably right around
her age, she's going to sixth grade. I think maybe
I was in seventh grade where my babysat for this
little girl down the street. Her name was Rachel, I'll
never forget. And when I got there, I was really
into the Babysitters Club book series, and so in the
Babysitters Club book series, they had these things called kid kits.
(02:44):
So I made my own kid kit and it was
basically a shoe box filled with all sorts of books
and crafts and things for the kid that you were
babysitting to do. And so I showed up to the
house and I had my little kid kit. I was
ready to go. I feel like I had anticipated everything
that could possibly happen. And the mom before she left,
(03:05):
she was like, Hey, so I'm going through a divorce
right now, and if my ex husband, if Rachel's dad
shows up, when I'm gone, make sure that you lock
all of the doors and go downstairs in the basement
bathroom and lock and lock the.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Door let him in.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
If I called my mom and told her that, she
would have said come home immediately, but I didn't have
a cell phone. He did come, and he did knock
at the door, and I said exactly what she said.
We just went downstairs in the basement and didn't answer
the door. And that was that. Nothing else happened. I
(04:00):
don't I didn't know the story, but the fact that
she had that she thought it was okay to bring
the seventh grader into her house in that situation to
watch her kid was wild.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I want to hear.
Speaker 1 (04:10):

babysitting job and what went wrong. Is there anybody other

I remember my mom did my job for me. That's
how bad it was. I never babysat at all. But
it's funny. Our best babysitters we ever had, like is
when the kids were really really little. We're like the
boys in the neighborhood that would play with them all
day outside.

She's trying to she's trying to make some money, she's
trying to save up money, so she's offered her services
to all of my friends to be they say, a
mother's helper. So really she would go over to the
house when my friends are there and like take their
kids to the park or something, or just play with
them there. So this is like a little bit more
freedom than that.

started panicing. I ran and got a nice Oh god,
I started jamming holes into the hey. I was being smart, right,
trying to make sure he had air, and we still
couldn't get it open. So I ran across the street.
I got my neighbor. It was an older guy, probably
(10:10):

across to the house, opened up the case, got him out.
My little brother was freaking out to the day's cross
the blob.

water and she refused to take a bath, and I'm like, okay,
