Episode Transcript

(00:12):
All right, everyone, welcome back to Cutting Loose Chronicles
podcast. I am your host Jess, and I need
to warn you about my next guests.
When they walk into a room, people immediately think, oh
great, the beautiful people are here to make us all feel bad
about ourselves. OK listeners, I need to put out
a hot alert because actually there are two awesome people who

(00:37):
happen to have won the genetic lottery.
Luckily for us, they're here to share their secrets, not about
looking great, but about workingout together, running a
successful pool business in the hot Florida, and keeping their
marriage strong and lustrous. Ladies and gents, I bring you
Alan and Erica Barrow. Hello.

(00:57):
How's it going? AKA Mississippi titties.
OK, I didn't know if you wanted me to say that or not or if I
was going to say it, but in my former podcast, which we don't
even talk about the name, Erica was a guest on called
Mississippi Titties, and it was a very successful episode.
I must say. Thank you.
They're hard to miss. They are hard to miss.
You know what? They can barely fit at this

(01:18):
table, but they're here. We made it work.
I want my listeners to know exactly who we're talking to.
Let's start out with this. How did the two of you meet?
Honestly, funny story, I was single, he was single, and
neither of us were looking for commitment and I was bored and

(01:39):
well, I don't know, I wasn't looking for commitment.
I don't know about him but I wasbored one day and I started
going on Facebook and there's a dating app on Facebook.
Oh dating apps you went. You met about a dating app.
Yeah, it's called Zoosk. Zoosk and I met the weirdest
people and I had the most fun messing with them.
Me and my girlfriend said I would show them the text, this

(02:00):
and that. And then this stubborn, strong,
independent man. I had a whole thing saying don't
just wink at me, tell me something special about
yourself. Make me laugh and everybody
followed my rules 'cause I'm a rule person.
I'm to take charge. He just winked at me and he had
sunglasses on in his picture anda crooked smile.
And I wait a minute, how did he wink at you?

(02:20):
He just it's like just a you click the wink button.
Like slide to the left, slide tothe right, the electric cha cha
or whatever it's called. OK, so of course Zoosk, so how
long, how many years ago, how many years ago was that?
May was nine years ago. So that's what it was.
I don't remember. So what other dating websites
were out there at the time? All of them, honestly.

(02:43):
I have no idea that she wasn't even supposed to be on the
dating site. A buddy of mine talked me into
downloading it, trying it for a couple days and her thing popped
up so I figured she was cute. I'll just wink and keep moving.
Didn't think she'd actually talked to me, so here we are
nine years later. Funny story though, we talked
for like we did. We did back and forth texting on

(03:04):
the app and then exchanged phonenumbers and it took him like
over a week and a half to actually call me.
And then when I heard his voice,I was like, Oh my God, I was
like sexy voice it. Is a pretty good voice so if you
so he winked at ya and then he wait let a week go by before he
made his move. I well, I waited a couple days

(03:24):
before I responded to him because I was like, look at this
stubborn man, see if he did anything else that he didn't.
So then I reached back out. I'm like, all right, you asked
you to not just wink, tell me something about stuff and you
just went ahead and just winked at me.
Got my curiosity. So we started texting on there.
Then we started texting back andforth phone.
And then we his friend finally convinced him to say just call
her, just call her. So he called me and then we

(03:45):
talked for hours and hours and it was like 2 weeks and we
finally needed agreed to meet up.
I was like, oh gosh, nerve racking.
And I've never known Mr. Allen over there to ever be kind of
shy like that. I'm kind of surprised because
I've known you for a number of years now.
Yeah, it's, I don't know, I justa how should I put this?

(04:05):
He thought I was out of his league.
Yeah, I don't try to come on too.
Strong. It was the titties, wasn't it?
Yeah. It was definitely.
The titties. It was the titties.
It was just the whole, the wholeaspect of it.
I mean, like I said, I wasn't exactly in a good spot in my
life at that time. So I was lucky to have a New
Girl talk to me more and less anything else that I was going
through. So that was many, many years
ago. But she, she was, she was funny.

(04:25):
I actually as soon as it said, you know, don't just wink, say
something. I I actually winked and just
went on to be a smart ass thinking she would pretty much
ignore it. What does the wink think?
Make me go somewhere dirty, You know, I just never say wink.
I think I know it winks. It's not a butthole.
OK, that's what I'm picturing and you guys have that humor.

(04:47):
He. Gets a lot of winking in his.
I actually have that humor. There's plenty of winks.
Thanks guys. OK, so then you on your date,
everything went good. Nine years you've been married
now actually. Remember when you guys?
We were friends then, too. Yeah, we got.
We've been married. It'll be 7 years this August.
We've been together nine years in April.
Yeah, went and they loped on us.We did, yeah.

(05:08):
I didn't want to do all the planning.
I started it and I was like, this is frustrating.
We've both been married, been there, done that.
Which which is actually a funny story because we got married
during red tide on the beach. Didn't know it was red tide.
There's dead fish in our weddingpictures.
It's awesome. Well, if you let Jess handle it,
you wouldn't have had dead fish in the background.
But listen, the whole downtown town, Siesta Key was pretty much
dead. So we had got into Tommy Bahamas

(05:30):
Restaurant, we got into all the clubs, all the stores.
We didn't have to wait. Everything was super easily.
Accessible Siesta Key FL Listeners, if you guys don't
ever visit Florida, come visit Siesta Key.
We will be there this August, won't we?
Celebrating our anniversary. Actually, funny story is that we
were driving up there, we decided we're going to go ahead
and get married. So we found somebody that would

(05:51):
meet us on the beach to do it. And I was we pull up, we get
there and the smell is is horrid.
It's, it's bad, so bad. And she actually asked me.
She goes, is it supposed to smell like that?
You know, me being the man, I'm like, yeah, baby.
That's what he said. He's like, it just rained.
It's just the smell of rain on the concrete. 10,000 lbs of dead
fish was scraped off the beach like an hour before we showed.

(06:14):
Up How long did you guys date before you got married?
2 1/2 years. That's good.
Yeah, we got, we got engaged after six months.
That's OK. Yeah, I was surprised, but he
did it in front of my family. He got me a Christmas present.
And at the time I was manager ofemergency departments and my
chair made my back hurt. And I was kept saying, oh, I
need to get one of those butt cushions, you know, support your

(06:35):
back. See butt everyone she loves.
See Butt, I do love butt. She likes her, but since she
cannot lie and no other brother can deny, and when a muscular
guy walks up in her face, you know she's going to take her
place. She likes her butts.
Little in the middle, but she likes her butts.

(06:57):
Little in the middle, but she likes her butts.
I said little in the middle, butshe likes her butts.
And gave me a pillow for Christmas and I was so excited
about this present and he thought he was going to be
pranking me and giving me this stupid present for Christmas.
And I would be like, Oh my God, this is what I got for

(07:19):
Christmas. And then he really romanticized
me with the engagement ring. But I had so excited about the
damn. Pillow.
I was so excited about the butt.So the ring was stuck in the
crack of the butt pillow. Now he turned around and I he
says, honey, that's not your real Christmas present.
Yeah, well, actually she turned around and showed everybody the
butt pillow because she was ecstatic about her ass not
hurting anymore at work. And then it turns out when she
turned back around, I was on oneknee and she couldn't believe

(07:40):
it. So.
It's all fun and games until youhave butt pain, right?
Yeah, I mean butt pain will takeanyone down.
When you got a bad back, you gotto have support.
So that's really romantic. So you are engaged at six
months, You got married after 2 1/2 years.
When you did engage get engaged,you gave her a butt pillow and
the ring was stuck in the crack of the butt pillow, No.

(08:01):
Actually, I had the ring. It should.
Have been stuck. It should.
Have been in the butt pillow butit wasn't oh you.
Had it and did you deliver in your crack?
No, not in front of. My dad, no.
Too much hair. Yeah, Yeah.
Yeah, actually her parents, whenI asked to marry or her dad
actually told me, he said you can have her hand in marriage.
We got to take the rest of her. Well, guys, thanks for sharing
that. Let's also dig a little deeper.

(08:23):

Facebook under L Tech pool and spa ask for ocean.
And we do automation Wi-Fi hookups for pools.

(09:04):
I've been doing it for many years, so he pretty.
Much can fix everything and anything that has to do with the
pool and he does. And we also saw the equipment

Say the pool, name it say, say the business again.
It's. L tech pool and spa OK.
And it's in Bellevue, Florida. Bellevue.

Poolandspa.com. Yeah.
And you sell pool. We sell pool equipment,
supplies, spa supplies, spa equipment of course mostly

(09:47):
repair service, things of that effect.
Just a small retail family ownedstore superstar.
Employee Ocean. She started with us when she was
15. How?
Apropos and she's. 19 I know that's what I thought.
That was a joke when I saw and she had blue hair when she
applied for the job. And Long story short she's 19.
She's now our manager and she's amazing.
She is. She's literally only missed I

(10:07):
think 4 days of work in the entire time she's worked for us.
And two of the days I told her do not come in.
You just had a car accident and had stitches in your ear.
You're not coming to work. She still showed up.
That's. Great.
I like to hear about the young work with work ethic.
She's very, very good. I like hearing that she.
She took a lot off of my shoulders because it started off
just me and him. It was my idea to him start his
own business here and we got it all together and we opened it on

(10:32):
September. It was.
September, actually. August 7th, 2017, Yeah.
Well, that's the day we decided to do it, but the doors didn't
open till the first day of September and it just took off
well. That's great, now you also offer
pool cleaning. No, actually we do not.
We used to do pool cleaning. Probably miss keeping employees
who actually want to show up forwork.
So I went ahead and sold the pool route.

(10:54):
Now we just do service repairs. I have one guy who works with me
as a helper and he does a couplethings by himself.
And then of course I have a couple employees from the store,
but I'm not. We don't do cleanings anymore.
OK. We used to, and I used to do it
because every time an employee would quit, I'd have to take
over while I was nursing. You keep that red hair, all that
chlorine, she's a redhead, everybody.

(11:15):
Yes, it was rough. I'd have every kind of
sunscreen, hat on, coverage. Just saying.
If I had to have somebody clean my pool, it'd be you, 50.
Pools a week, that's. That's really it.
Plus, we'll get into what you dofor a living on a very, very
decorated nurse. Thank you.
Cardio nurse. Every kind of nurse.
Yeah, mostly emergency room. But in the state of Florida, we

(11:37):
all know that is brutally hot. What I want to know, Alan, is
walk us through a typical day onthe job and how you are able to
not pass out. Yeah.
Last Monday, put it this way, last Monday I left the house at
216 lbs about. I came home at 3:00 in the
afternoon at 2:11. I can drink water all day long

(11:57):
and I never use the bathroom, sweat it all out and just do it
all over again. But I've been doing it for
years, so it's not like when yousit in the sun long enough, you
get used to it, you know? Not me.
I'm out. No landscaping.
I'm never going to be a landscaper.
I'm never going to do pools. I'm not going to be
construction. I would.
Always fall in the pools on accident.
Uh huh. Wink wink.

(12:18):
Yeah, when I was cleaning pools,because I would get.
So hot. It's, it's hot.
I don't know how he does it. He's bending over pumps.
He's he's I've done. It for so long you just get used
to it. I got to.
Know I got to know that stuff I can go.
All day long, without any suntanor shirt on, I.
Totally turned on the watching him work.
It is so sexy because he's just so smart and he's got it down

(12:38):
and he can just look at something and figure it out and
he just busts out the tools and the muscle sweat.
Stripping down off of his burly.Muscles so I when I used to go
with him, Oh my God, he would just OK do.
You guys ever? Oops, did you?
Have you ever, you know, took out no one's home they're on?
Vacation never. Never, because I know someone

(12:58):
who did not. You guys OK.
Thank you and I'm going. To say who?
It's not even in Bellevue. It's in Crystal River, FL And
she said she would take our clothes off and she got into the
pool and they had cameras. They had cameras, yeah.
No, I'm good. No, we we behave.
Yeah, well. We behave once we're on vacation
and let's. Just say this person does not

(13:19):
groom herself downstairs and let's not.
Discuss that. Why?
OK. Well, she had a.
Merc. Still not going to say the name.
OK, I would, but I think she clogged the pool filter, you
know what I mean? Oh my God.
So. And that's not the strangest
thing I've heard of when it comes to clogging pool filters,
by the way. Oh.
That's what my next question. Give me some crazy stories.

(13:40):
Just give me a couple. This is this is a little off the
chain, but OK so I we were actually doing a green and
clean, which is what that means is you actually have to drain
the pool, pressure wash it get everything out of it, fill it in
and let it fill back up and it'spretty much like a new pool
cause the. Pool looks like a swamp looks
like. A swamp.
OK, so we were at a I'm not going to say what mayor, county
police officers house we were at.
We were at a county sheriff's house.

(14:01):
I'm not going to say which one, but we were draining the pool
and as it starts draining I start seeing the form of a penis
come up out of the bottom of thepool.
Oh. I like this.
Apparently he had about, I wouldsay a good foot and a half long
rubber dildo at the bottom of his pool that he didn't know was
there until we drained it. Oh, sorry.
That was a it was, it was, it was something different to I had

(14:24):
to scoop it. I actually had that.
Bang, you guys heard? Was the rubber dildo actually
fallen on the table? I kept it just, you know, I
couldn't let it go. But it we, we've had some
strange things. I've seen barbecues and pools.
I've had some that people have plumbed that look like Doctor
Zeus. You I don't have no idea what
they were thinking or if they understand how water, how, you

(14:45):
know, works or flows. I should say.
It's just it's, it's, it's different.
Everything's different. I'm an electrician.
I'm a plumber. I I have to know every trade
that way I can get it done because it's not just one thing
and everything is always different.
It's not like I do the same routine over and over again and
I. Want to say here that we won
Marion County's best of the besttwo years in a row, and the
second year we didn't even run and we still got voted best of

(15:08):
the best. The guy that runs it could not
believe it. He's like, I've never seen
anything like this before, OK. So that's why I want to ask you,
your reviews are off the chain. I looked them up.
They're great. Thank you.
And what would you say that you have a lot of competition?
No. It's it's I have competition.
The difference I feel is that I'm honest.
I'm actually brutally honest with my customers.
I have a lot of them that enjoy it and I have some that don't

(15:30):
like me for it. But if it's something that needs
to be taken care of, I'm going to fix it the way put at my
house. I'm not going to fix it the way
you want it fixed. I understand it may not be
within your budget and it's kindof a little more expensive than
you like, but if you want it to last a long time and it'd be
right, this is the way to do it.I have turned down jobs because
I refuse to do things half ass. Pardon my French, you're.
Excused. OK.

(15:51):
Still. Do buttholes OK?
We're not. This show's not explicit yet.
Air quoting yet? OK, I have to say this though, I
don't want I don't want to catchthe explicit, you know, title
because I don't know, sometimes younger moms might or dads might

(16:12):
frown on their younger clienteleor like their younger listeners
tuning in. But you know, listeners
discretion is advised. We'll say that part.
There you go. How?
Do you think, do you think that since COVID business has changed
at all actually? COVID I, it's funny to say, but
I was considered essential. They wouldn't, they wouldn't

(16:33):
shut us down because of a clean water, water clarity.
You can't have all the pools turning around in people's
houses, having bugs and God knows what else and the stuff
that can come out of those pools.
So they, we were allowed open. I never closed.
I stayed busy the whole time actually.
We got busier. I had to quit working nursing
for almost 6 months to help him get catch up because nobody was
at going anywhere and the kids were at home and driving the

(16:55):
parents crazy. So the money that they had, they
used to fix the pool, they got new pumps, they got salt
systems, they had to keep their chemicals and their pools clean.
They had to do all this stuff. So we got so busy and we've
stayed busy, but we will say that prices of everything got
insane. Chlorine jumped, I don't know,
five times since when we first started.
And four of those five times wasjust in the two years of COVID,

(17:19):
which was insane. So of course, we had to raise
our prices and customers were like, listen, we don't know what
to tell you. This is what it is.
Yeah, that. Same kind of boom that COVID put
on there. People being at home also
created all the animals. Everyone got pets and stuff and
then when they all went back to work they started flooding the
animal shelter so they didn't want that pet anymore.
I have a huge animal rescue and that just pisses me off when
people do that. They are your family and shame

(17:41):
on you for not treating them like family.
But the flip coin? Is is that what it did for
animals? Is more businesses are.
I'm sorry Erica, my foot is on her leg with me.
These two are. Playing footsies under the table
and I missed. My pedicure yesterday, so I'm
sure you're bleeding, but but you know, now animals eyes
notice have got more rights. You know, they're opening up

(18:02):
businesses are open up more to water, water bowls being outside
the doors. And shoot, we all have big plans
after this show today to go havesome fun at a pool and let's
just say the Hard Rock hotels where we're going and they just
let your animals come and if youspend the night, they'll give
you a dog bed. I think that's cool.

(18:22):
Does that count for me? That's where you'll sleep on.
That's where I. Can sleep on the dog bed.
You don't. Behave.
That's normal. So thank you for telling us
about your profession and your business, and I hope the
listeners will be blowing you up, hopefully.
So if you need super proud of. Them.
I will plug the website and the name of your business.
Appreciate it on our episode at the end, we'll tack it on.

(18:46):
And then Erica, let's get into you.
Oh. Boy.
Very decorated, seasoned veterannurse that just helped my family
out not too long ago. Literally 2 weeks ago with my
father being in the hospital. But tell us about you.
Tell us about your career, your path, your journey.
So I started going to nursing school when I was 27 years old

(19:10):
and I had two kids at home, one in diapers, and I was just, And
she had almost died from interception.
And the nurse there in the pediatric unit at Shan's, she
understood that I was not going to leave my child.
I wasn't going to go to the Ronald McDonald House.
I was going to do anything. I would sleep on the floor and I
wasn't showering. I wasn't going home.
And so she gave me some things from her locker, some shampoo,

(19:32):
some conditioner, change of scrubs, everything.
She was amazing. And when I got my kid home safe
and I worked for a doctor at thetime where my daughter kept
getting sick, her immune system was low.
She's like, why don't you just stay home with your daughter and
go back to nursing, Go to nursing school.
And I'm like, OK. And I literally left that day
and I signed up for nursing school and graduated top of my
class. And I got into the emergency

(19:52):
department as a nurse intern anddid most of that my most of my
career. When I left, I was an interim
director after about 15 years and I was a manager for three
years. It was a fun, stressful, high
energy. Very critical thinking, common
sense beyond your balls, on yourfeet.

(20:14):
Some amazing stories, some amazing people I work with.
I'm still friends with them to this day.
I could not imagine myself doinganything else.
I've done some other stuff on the side, you know, simple
stuff. PRN job some home health pool.
Cleaning pool. Cleaning in between all of it.
Yeah, I did electrophysiology for about 5 years.

(20:35):
Now I'm working for Monogram Health, which is much more my
pace. You know, I'm older, bones and
joints hurt and I've got a greatjob working with Monogram Health
and they specialize in kidney failure patients and the
comorbidities that lead to that.So I absolutely.
Amazing. So give us just give us a quick
story about one of your favoritenursing.
I like the one that you tell about the light up dildo.

(20:58):
I thought it. Was a butt plug.
No, it's a dildo. Oh God, I'm going to catch the
E, the explicit but tell the story, So what the hell, let's
catch it. I was, it was on, I was on night
shift at this time and it was probably like 3 or 4 in the
morning. And this gentleman and his, we
thought was his wife came in andthe nurse was the older lady and
she was triaging him. And then she kept telling the

(21:19):
guy, you want to sit down. He's like, oh, no, I'm good.
I'm comfortable. And he's like, I just, I'm
having pain in my, in my, in my bottom.
And she's like, is there anything in there?
He's like, no, I just don't, I don't know where this pain is
coming from. She's like, you're sure
nothing's in your bottom? And he's like, no, I swear.
I think maybe it's just hemorrhoids or something.
So she brings it back and she weput him in a private room and
she pulls me aside. She goes, I'm pretty sure
there's something in his butt. And I'm like, OK, so we get him

(21:42):
in the room and I had butt. Butt butt, butt.
I love butts. And funny story, in my family
dinners we always talk about butt or poop.
It is hilarious if if it's not brought up at a dinner that's.
Why we get along so good at the family.
Every. Time We can't have dinner
anywhere without somebody bringing up a fart joke, a butt
joke. There's got to be some.
Something's got to be said aboutthat.

(22:02):
You know what? I call that home.
That's my. Maiden last name actually it.
Is actually Holm that was. True, yeah.
How fitting OK. Continue.
But we put the guy in the room and he's laying on his side and
I had this PA who is hilarious. He's very vibrant and vocal and
speaks his mind. And he comes in and he lifts up

(22:24):
the sheet and he looks and he's like, Sir, there's something
flashing and he's like, what? He's like you said, there's
nothing in here. But I see a flashing light
coming out of your rectum, Sir. And he goes, I'm going to need
you to relax. I'm going to try to pull this
out and I'm like. Well, I don't understand.
So he, he was, he thought that he could hide from the the

(22:45):
nursing staff and the doctors that he had something stuck in
his butt that lights up, I think.
He was just so embarrassed because the nurse that was
triaging him was like in her 60sand oh, that's.
Why I think? I don't know, yeah.
Could couldn't have been the flash and dildo in your butt.
I don't. Know they get embarrassed, you
know I would be. Embarrassed so.
So my nurse, my PA attempts to try to pull it out, but it is so

(23:06):
far up there. And when the the rectum flexes
and it, it won't relax for you to pull it out.
Yeah. And he was pulling and he's
like, and he's like, sure, you have to relax.
I'm in the corner trying not to laugh.
Long story short, we had to conscious sedation and moderate
sedation, getting a little propofol.
And we get it out and it comes out and that thing is at least
12 inches long. And it's, it's purple and red

(23:29):
and it's built like a rocket. And it was flashing lights and I
was and nobody. In the emergency room, like in
the waiting area, I saw his likecoming through his pants, his
britches, first of all. Was there nobody with a camera?
That's the first thing out of it.
He's half asleep. You don't dope them up.
No, he has a camera. Camera's in my memory.
Although I love to see the pictures exactly, I can't.

(23:50):
I can't be giving you the stink eye that long because.
Nowadays we get. It out and we, the doctor sets
it on the counter behind us and he leaves.
Doesn't even turn it off, just leaves it on the counter.
I monitor the guy, I come out fresh.
Batteries they were. They must have been.
It was still going that one. Was it there?
Did anyone start disco dancing? Were they energizers?
Oh. We had some jokes.
I had some of the men, paramedics come in.

(24:12):
They had to get a look at. They all heard about it because
word travels fast. I go out into the hallway to
tell his, which I thought was his wife at the time, that he's
all done and you know how to watch him for an hour and you
can take him on. She had split.
She left him. How old would you?
Say they were. I would say, I think he was like
in his late 50s, early 60s. And I go out to the triage
nurse. I said, hey, do you know where

(24:32):
the wife's AT? And she goes, that wasn't his
wife, that was his mistress. She told me that she had to
leave and that he had to find his own way home.
And, well, we. All know there's no way the wife
would have done that for him. Yeah, so, I mean, could have
been a paid mistress, who the heck knows?
But that Lady left him high and dry, got me.

(24:54):
It was terrible. And then housekeeping came in to
clean the room and he was my little Spanish guy and he didn't
speak very good English. And he came out with it in his
hand, not wearing a glove. And he was like, well, wait a
minute. Hold on, stop, he said.
He had it in his hand without a glove on.
Yes. He thought it was an instrument
that we used and this is. One of the people that worked
there, he was. Spanish and he very very little
English older gentleman. Trooper, Yes, Trooper and.

(25:18):
I. I told him I said put that down,
put that down. He's KKK, no?
Man, you're good. Hold on to it.
It's the best story in the world.
So did you ever tell him what itwas?
I just let the guy have his beat.
You let the guy sleep, sleep that night.
Because I'm sure if he didn't know, he could probably live a
better life not knowing he picked up a dirty no.

(25:40):
We told him no of. Course you told him.
How could you not tell me I had to get?
I got my Co worker Spanish interpreter.
You just. Couldn't help yourself, could
you? It was.
So fun his new. Name is Dirty Sanchez?
We asked. Him, if we could take a picture
with it. So there was a picture.
Well, we asked him. He said no, no, no, no, no, no,
no. You know, he did his little
thing and he threw it. We've.
Got family at home. We can't hold on to that it.
Went in the red bag and it neverwas turned off.

(26:03):
It went into the red bag, flashing.
That's a great way to see if energizers really do last that
long. Exactly.
Exactly, Yeah. That's that's the story I'll
never forget. So the.
Guy wakes up and then he grabs his wallet and he leaves.
We had. New change of drawers we had.
To have him get a ride, he had to pay for a taxi or did he call
the? Wife.
Not that I know of, because thatwould.

(26:23):
Have been great, we had. To because we had to sign for an
Uber driver like because he we can't let him drive home.
Here's my. Thing I'm married so I
understand what it's like to have a wife.
So I mean, how do you explain that when you get home and she's
like, how you been babe? You know it's a rough day at
work. You want to sit down?
No, I'm good. Especially she does your laundry
that day. What's that mystery spot here?
How do you talk your way out of that one?
Because I. Check all the cracks and of all

(26:45):
the indoor that goes into my washing machine and you know
they. Asked his name and address, so
he got a bill. I know who ate what.
I know who ate what. Corn.
Dana had corn. Hey.
What did the corn on the cob sayto you after you ate it?
Oh, I've heard this. Somebody here see you.
Tomorrow, see you later. All right, so let's move on
because gross, gross. But funny.

(27:06):
OK, so but one more question about the pool, Alan.
I want to know what everybody wants to know, everybody.
When someone pees in the pool, can you do you have a way of
telling that someone has been peeing in the pool?
We've. All heard the stories.
One kid just couldn't quite holdit in and pee right there in the

(27:27):
pool. It's definitely gross to swim in
someone else's pee, but is it unsafe?
And does the water really turn dark blue?
When you got to go, you got to go.
And sometimes you got to go. On a hot summer day, while
floating neck deep in the middleof a pool, it might be
attempting to just pee peep right there in the water.

(27:48):
But you really, really shouldn't.
That's because it's not quite asharmless as it seems.
Here's why. Experts say that the average
residential backyard swimming pool has about two gallons of
bee in it at any given time. Luckily, that's only 100th of
1%. But even still, a little pee in

(28:09):
a pool can go a long way. You see, cool water is treated
with a chemical called chlorine,which helps kill Vaccine Syria
and keep the water nice and clean so that people don't get
sick from swimming in it. It's also what gives pool water
that nice aquamarine color. The problem is, chlorine doesn't
react well to things like dirt, sweat, body oils, and most of

(28:32):
all, me. When chlorinated water combines
with urine, it creates a compound that stays in the
water. According to the American
Chemical Society, both red eyes and pool smell that we all know
and don't really like, or a result of, well, you guessed it,
leftover pee molecules in the pool water.
So if you've really got to go, just be sanitary and go pee in

(28:56):
the ocean. And now you know that it's
probably best to just pee in thetoilet, not in the pool.
No, there's no way to that's. Excellent news other.
Other than the fact of it's going to be depending upon how
much way if you've drank enough water, no, your pee's going to
be diluted enough through you won't see it.
If you of course are an alcoholic and you pee dark
urine, it may show up as it comes out of your shorts and.

(29:18):
Dissipate. Yeah, exactly.
The worst is fecal matter. If somebody happens to he means
poop. Should we shit in the pool?
Thank you. Nurse.
Yeah, thank. You by the way, yeah, that's the
worst because then you have to pretty much dose the pool like
20 parts per million of chlorinefor the next three to five days
to burn the bacteria, which is a.
Lot of chlorine, you think? It's a little unnecessary.

(29:39):
I mean, one little tiny turret falls out of a baby diaper and
then you got to shut down the whole theme park if it's.
Spongy, I mean. What's spongy mean?
What do you mean what spongy's worse?
Yeah, if. It's spongy, the texture.
Do we want it spongy or not? A spongy if you've ever.
Eaten any spongy's better? I'll have to.
Check. OK, so L tech pool and spa.
L tech pool and spa. The man knows what he's talking

(30:01):
about. Thank you.
OK, here's what I really want totalk about.
OK, we're going to jump into thefitness topic.
So we're all gym rats, of course, but you know, there's
different versions of gym rats out there.
What do you? Call a gym rat by the way,
because they go to the gym 5-6 days a week.
I'm a gym rat. Exactly.
Ding, Ding, Ding. Tell him what he's won, Erica.

(30:21):
My titties? No, your partner is what you
win. It is a proven that couples that
work out together stay together.Couples that live together stay
together. Would you all agree?
I think so because I go through my phases where I am like not
wanting to go to the gym, I justwant to work out at home and it

(30:43):
changes things. And then there's phases where
like I'm injured and I can't work out.
So then I get like depressed andI don't feel good about myself.
And so it changes how sexy I feel, which changes the
marriage. He's always been amazing.
He's always made me feel beautiful and sexy.
But it's, you know, as a woman, it's a mental thing.
And then, you know, you go through menopause, which I'm
doing now, and bodies change, hormones, everything changes and

(31:05):
it makes it difficult. But I have decided that working
out with him is a good motivation for me because I
he'll keep me going. He's like, babe, I'm like, some
days I'm like, babe, I'm just not in the mood.
He's like, baby, you know, you'll feel better when you get
there. You get going and he's always
right. So wait a minute.
Hold on, wait. A second can we record that one
more? Time say it one more time and

(31:26):
he's. He's always right when he states
I'll feel better if I go to the gym with him.
Are you happy with that, Alan? It'll do.
I can edit the rest out. It does.
Say her five reasons for couplesto work out the benefits.
There's one increases happiness.What you just said.
It increases happiness and improves your efficiency.
So like, if you're there and you're sluggish a little bit and

(31:47):
you, you know, you should probably do a little more higher
of an incline on the treadmill, but you're like, I just worked
all day, blah, blah, blah. You have someone to back it to
help you. Yeah, that's.
Something I can't do. I'm not an afternoon workout
person. I have to which to mean many
people seems insane, but I usually get up about 4:00 in the
morning. We I should say correct?
I'm sorry. We get up at 4:00 in the morning
and usually at the gym by 5530. I'd rather work out first thing

(32:10):
in the morning. I I seem to do better at the end
of the day after being in the heat and work all day long.
The last thing I want to go do is sweat around a bunch of
people who are in my way. In the morning, nobody's there.
It's nice, it's open, you know, in the afternoon.
I completely. Agree.
In fact, at my salon, everyone'sinto working out right now.
And one of the girls, Rhonda, she goes in at 3:30 in the
morning, does the treadmill until she starts her boot camp

(32:34):
class and then she does that. Then she goes home, gets
showers, comes to work, works a full day and then I feel like
she does not crash, no. You don't actually.
And what's? Great though, is because this is
healthy. This is healthy and and you
asked about what do I call a gymrat?
So let's go back to that. So yes, I call you a gym rat.

(32:55):
I call anyone who goes to the gym at 5:00 in the morning
consistently for more than two days a week.
I call that a gym rat. About four.
And a half years now five years.Because these guys at the gym
take it way too seriously. You know the guys I'm talking
about, like headband, Everlast, belt.
They walk around like they're holding invisible luggage all
the time. Look at that guy's got baggage,

(33:19):
but I can't see it. You know those guys, they're too
intense. They make sounds and machines
they shouldn't. I'm working out.
I'll hear some gaggle go. Go, I look.
Over He's on a water fountain. Like what?
Well, he used to be like 260 lbsand he started having health

(33:39):
issues and heart problems and hewould not go to the doctor to
save his life. And I finally was like, this is
it Next time you pass out, I mean, your heart rate drops to
the 30s. I'm calling 911.
So he finally is like, OK. And I, we have a picture of him
in the pool and he had major mantitties.
That's my man. Titties, but I was.
So I, you know, I still love him.
I know, you know, I thought he was sexy, but when I started

(34:00):
affecting his health, I'm like, this is it.
We're not doing this anymore. You need to change what you're
doing. And he lost and he's I think the
smallest he's ever gotten down to like 195.
And I like him at a nice two 11215.
That's his perfect weight 2. 14 today.
And I can look at him and I can,he'll ask.
I'll tell my he says how much you think I weigh.
And I'll say it. He's like, how do you do it?
Gets on this scale and I'm like on point.
You don't need a scale, you got Erica.

(34:21):
I'm pretty good about it too, I said.
I said get on my back and I'll lift somebody up.
I said. Oh, you lost 2 lbs, I said.
Why do you want to eat a? Salad tonight?
Go take a poop. Or take a poop.
That really does matter. She does.
That constantly but. Another thing is to help achieve
your goals. So if you say I'm going to start
wall Pilates here like probably Monday, that's tomorrow, maybe

(34:42):
Tuesday, maybe Tuesday. And you have someone there like
my mom and I will go to the gym together.
And I'll have to admit, sometimes I would skip it.
I'm tired and I know that my momis counting on me to to go.
So there it is right there increases an emotional bond.

(35:02):
And the best one here is to makeyou fall in love more, falling
in love with one another. I.
Mean, honestly, we go to the gymtogether every day and I, I, I
go to the gym every day to work out.
I like to be by myself. I'm kind of a loner workout.
She likes to work out too, but we both do the same thing.
We pop on her headphones, we give each other little Peck on

(35:23):
the cheek or, you know, we kiss each other and then we go our
separate ways. She does more cardio, I do more
weight lifting and you know, it's a 45 minutes of not having
to be. I guess in the real world, you
know, you, you do your thing, you burn out your stress, you
get it off your mind, you put ona.
Good podcast while you're doing it.
Yeah, actually I I listen to angry metal music, so yeah, but

(35:44):
you're. Going to add what to the list
Cut and loose? I'm going to add cut and loose.
Chronicles, of course. You know that, but it's, it's
like I said, like I was telling you, it's, it's just, it's what
makes us go. And then the rest of the day, I
feel better if I don't go. I feel like crap the rest of the
day. I really do.
It's good for the joints and themuscles and we stretch and it it
just gets everything flowing. The metabolism it everything.

(36:05):
I always feel better. I do 30 to 45 minutes on the
elliptical and I've and then I go and I do my weights.
I do free weights sometimes. Sometimes I do my own body
weight. And then I stretch and we keep
each other. We make eye contact across the
gym. We send each other little kissy
things once in a while. Oh.
My God, get a room already. We.

(36:27):
Flirt while we're there, I'd say70% of the time, right?
And you know, sometimes people go get a room, guys, and it's
like we're just so let me. Just ask you this, how has it
helped the sex area? Oh, it's.
Great. I mean, honestly, before she
would work so many hours, she couldn't go to the gym.
She had to be to work at six. She couldn't, you know, we
couldn't get up in time for where she could actually get

(36:48):
ready to go. And she was all, you know, it
was, it was we were good then, don't get me wrong, But we're a
lot better now for the fact thatwe both run the same kind of
schedule. We both go to gym together.
She feels better about herself. You know, I feel better that
she's trying and that we're bothtrying to work on the same goal
to where, you know, we both are healthy and old together and the
sex is, I mean, what's better than coming home after sweating

(37:09):
to the gym? Exactly.
Sweaty sex. And I know you guys were good
before this because I shared a cabin with you in Tennessee.
Yeah. Sorry about that.
I feel like there was a bow chick about.
Wow, next time. Just high 5.
I could. You're upstairs on the loft,
kind of far from us, so we couldstill hear you could have.
Screamed it though. High 5 coral.
That's all I could hear at 5:00 in the morning.

(37:30):
We thought we were being quiet. Anyway, it's so 71% of men's
libido increases if they work out, and 62% of women's you know
what? They say if you don't keep
moving, it eventually quits working.
Or an idle mind is the devil's playground.
You know what that means? Dementia.

(37:51):
We do not want that. Listen, I do.
I feel sexier when I work out. I feel better about myself,
which makes me want to put on sexier clothes.
It makes me want to be seen naked, makes me not feel
insecure. And I know that man would love
me if I was, you know, hair falling out and scars everywhere
and and, you know, saggy, saggy,saggy.
But because he loves me from my heart and my personality.

(38:12):
But I also know my personality would change if I didn't like
how I felt inside my body. Very.
Motivating. I hope that this conversation
helps listeners, people, men andwomen who don't feel confident
with their partners. I hope that if anyone who's
having sexual problems that they'll listen to this and
maybe. Well, keep in mind too, this

(38:33):
isn't something if you're going to start working out from fresh,
the first six months sucks. Let's go ahead and get that out
your out your head right now. Nothing's going to change.
You're not going to look any different.
You're going to hate it every day.
It's going to hurt. It's going to suck.
But after six or eight months, things start to change.
Things start to feel better, youstart to move more.
And of course, working out is only a small percentage of it.

(38:53):
I mean, 70% of its diet. If you eat like crap, you don't
care how much you work out. You're going to look like crap.
It's just what happens. You put it into your body, it
comes out to so. There's a lot of stuff.
I agree on that one, but one thing I might want to challenge
you on is the part because it might, it's different for women.
Six months. Yeah, because working out the
first, I think the just mentallyworking out for the first.

(39:16):
I'd say get 3 workouts under your belt.
You know, we call it the eye of the tiger.
And like what Erica said, makes her want.
She's come more comfortable naked, feels more sexy.
I have the same results when I do things like that.
So I just think mentally and when you're mentally healthier,
then that makes you even if you haven't lost the weight goal,

(39:39):
maybe even you want to lose 50 lbs, you know, and you haven't
lost any. Just that alone changes things
which keeps you wanting to continue.
It builds. Up your serotonin levels, which
makes you feel more pleasant andhappy.
Like the Phil Ferrell for what'sthat guy's name?
Pharrell Richard Simmons No. Happy, happy.

(39:59):
What's that? Cisco the black guy.
Pharrell. Pharrell.
What's his name? Steve.
Harvey Yeah, sure. That's him.
Marvin. He sings the song.
Happy. Happy.
Oh, because. I'm happy and along if you let
the wrong with that of you OK, we know.
Anyways, and this ladies and. Gentlemen, is why I love her I.
I'm I'm which one? Mississippi.

(40:21):
Taste. Well, I love.
I love me first. I love both of you.
I am only married to one of you there.
Are never mind say which I gave the boobs at this table, but I
wanted to say that you were one time man titties, right?
I I used to have man titties, yes, I used to go to squeeze
them together and they'd make noise now.
He has. He has bald titties.
Well, yeah, now what? Dick titties don't.

(40:42):
Say that, Dick. Titties.
Now he could pick up a. Quarter off the floor with his.
Man Chesticles. With his chesticles, that's.
What she calls them OK do. You guys, you know what I was
thought we were going to talk about Happy, that Happy guy.
Tell me what we're going to say about him.
It was a. Happiness like get your
serotonin level going and then you know, you always feel happy

(41:03):
all the time. I will want to say this to women
though, because and I heard somegirls saying this to the gym.
They were, they work out with a trainer there.
I mean, he murders them. He, I used to work out with this
guy. He is a beast and I've learned
what he teaches them and I do iton my own.
I don't need him to push me to do it, but these girls need that
accountability and more power tothem.
They were saying I ate everything like I was supposed

(41:24):
to. I've been killed at the gym and
I haven't lost a pound. That is true, but you're gaining
muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat.
Don't go by the scale. Go by how your clothes fit you,
how your muscle tone is, how you're feeling.
I don't even own. AI don't even own a scale.
Oh, I have. 1. I go by the clothes like you're
saying, but by the way, the clothes great advice, but I'm.

(41:46):
Guilty of getting on the scale and I do get myself and I get
discouraged and I have to remindmyself OK, no you know what I do
but I just did the whole body muscle mount thing I'm 98%
muscle mass Well, I just. Thought and 40%. 46% water and
like 26.5 BMI I'd like to do. That I'd like to do that I'm
going to. Make a scale that sounds like
the drill Sergeant from Full Metal Jacket.
We'll see. Right.

(42:07):
So when you stand. On it, be like you're a piece of
track. Put the toy key down.
Yeah, your mother. Hates you, You're fat.
OK, if anyone's listening to this and they go and steal his
idea, we will sue you. We will sue your trademark.
Trademarked WE. Need to get that patented
immediately. You're.
Skinny fat you need to do my must God.
I can see up your nose. Listen, if you work out, work

(42:29):
out for you man. Who cares if you can bench £400.
I don't bench £400. I don't want to bench 400 lbs.
I'm happy with where I'm at. I look good, I stay good.
It doesn't have to be about, youknow, how much you lift or how
much you do or what. But if?
You do. More power to you be.
Happy with you. I know you don't get me wrong.
If you can bitch 400 lbs, you'rean animal.

(42:49):
I just don't know how you wipe your butt.
So I mean, the problem is you can't reach around.
I, I just, I just I just I, likeI said, it's, it's about what
you feel comfortable with, what you like and what you're happy
with. And it's something that you have
to be. It's yours.
Yeah. Show up every morning.
And do you. You know what I mean?
Who cares who's around you Pop your headphones on.
Hell, some days I listen to Blues music.

(43:10):
Sometimes I listen to angry rock.
Some days I listen to, you know,classical music.
It just depends on what I'm in the mood form I.
Love to squat to Beethoven I. Don't do squats.
I hate legs. Legs are my I hate legs.
Maybe you? Should find some Beethoven, it
might inspire you. I, I have a I read my book, my
Kindle on my app and I play music and I, I cruise and people

(43:33):
cannot figure out how I can do all of it at the same time.
But it keeps me distracted. It keeps me from not thinking
about the pain I'm in and it keeps me from worrying about
ever people watching me. What the pain?
I'm in OK. What about people watching?
So that's what I do. I'm on the treadmill, you know,
and I'm just looking around. I hate that that's like.
One of the worst things just sitthere and you're working out and
you look in the mirror and you got some weirdos.

(43:54):
And I'm a guy, so I shouldn't have to feel that way.
But I've more than once looked up and I don't care what any man
says in Jim, if you go to the gym long enough, you figure out
most men body watch more than the women, which is weird.
Yeah, those. Mirrors stop it.
You weirdos quit it I. Had this one guy.
This one guy brings a full camera system and he records
himself. He actually is a great guy.

(44:14):
I really like his name. Michael is.
But I mean, don't bring a camerain fact.
He was going to come on, you know, he is a full tripod and
everything. I he's royal.
He's on Instagram, he's royal. So I have to.
He was going to come on the showmy my former show.
Big I mean, is he cut up like crazy?
Oh, he's OK. He's cool and he's.
But he's the full package on topof it.
He's a good looking. I mean, he's a lean muscular.

(44:36):
I mean, I mean, yes, I know. How should I word it then, he's
not one of those beefy like growlers.
Skinny. And cut up he's not.
From the movie Over the Top, I'min.
Between I'm between big and I'm between cut up.
I don't you're you're great. I'm not the skinny guy you're
about. 63 I'm. 63 I weigh 215 lbs and I'm 52 years old so been

(44:56):
healthy. Fabulous.
Looks great Erica. About 5-10 my.
Wife thinks I'm a child. Well, OK, let's talk about ADHD.
All right, so because I'm sensitive about it too.
We have ADHD, Alan. Yes, it's hard for me to pay
attention, but that's okay. I can do multiple things at one
time and it all seems to work out in the end and it.
Doesn't seem like it opposites attractive.
My sister Kimber, which is Ericas best friend by the way.

(45:18):
Everybody who is also a longtimeveteran nurse, she's got a
boyfriend, Marvin, who was also ADHD.
Do you see a pattern here? We're attracted.
To you weirdos and we love you. Oh, the.
Problem is you're listen, the minute that woman met me, she
said, you know what? I can fix that.
I can fix that. That can't be that bad.
I can fix that. She's still.
Working on it I. Have learned him so well and I

(45:41):
can tell when I need to reel himback in and put him back on
track. And there's other days where I
have to like just let him go. Just let him go.
Just breathe. What people need to know is that
when someone when two people have ADHD, they speak each
others language so they can and Marvin.
So we have and it's and really I'm tired of the rap that we are

(46:03):
flighty. I hate when someone who does not
have ADHD says Squirrel. Because you don't know what you
don't know the hell of that can.I say something I have found
with the people that I love, that are ADHD, that I've gotten
to know. You guys are the most
intelligent people, friends thatI have, Ding.
Ding Ding, tell her what she's won, Alan.
Exactly. She's won a confused 6 point

(46:23):
thought of exactly everything isrunning through her mind at one
time. That's true though.
We are highly intelligent people, and I'm gonna, if I'm
gonna give myself any kind of compliment in the world.
I'm not dumb. Well, no.
You're. Not that's.
ADHD doesn't mean you're dumb, it just means that you think of
6 things at one time and they're.
All wonderful ideas. Yeah, they're.
Great ideas, you just have to focus on the one that you
hopefully gets done. You know that you want to do at
that point in time my. Favorite thing about living with

(46:45):
him is his ADHD. He misplaces everything and he
loses track. I have a funny story.
I broke my keys. Since the 80s, so.
I have two funny stories now. One time he was looking for his
car keys and he swears he puts everything in the same spot,
which he never does. I'm a Virgo, I put stuff in the
same spot. I'm very aware of it.
He had the keys on his boot has boot loop thingy and he did not

(47:05):
even realize they were on his hip and he was looking
everywhere for his car keys. I let him go for like 15
minutes. He was getting so frustrated and
he's like are you just going to lay there not help me find my
keys? And I looked him.
I said do you really want my help?
He's like, yes, I'm like, they're on your hip and he's
like. Listen, I own a.
Business. I'm married to a redhead and I
have four dogs, 2 cats and kids that don't live at home but

(47:29):
drive me insane. So there's a lot on my mind at
one time and then. Another time I asked him for a
thing of water, so he's like, OK, I got you babe.
He goes into the garage, comes back out with his water.
I said babe, you forgot my water.
He's like, Oh yeah, that's right.
He goes back. He goes somewhere else.
I don't know where he went, cameback, sits on the couch.
I said babe, where's my water? He's like, Oh my God, I forgot.
Third time he goes, I don't knowwhere he went.

(47:50):
Comes back, goes into the kitchen.
I said, babe, where's my water? He's like, Oh my God.
Like this happened in like 5 minutes.
I understand. That listen, I.
Mean you. What happens is I get up and I'm
on a mission and I know I'm going to get a bottle of water.
I know I am. And then I hit the garage and I
think to myself, oh shit, I meant to put that away over
here. So I grabbed that and start
putting it away. And the next thing I know, I'm
like, OK, now all my fiber clothes are laying next to my

(48:12):
bug. You got to pick, though.
You know she's going to complainif she sees them on the floor.
And then I walked back in. She's like, where's my water?
I'm like, yeah, about that. You have to love and you have to
love and accept them. But you know what?
If if you get frustrated with that, then there's that's shame
on you as a human being because it's just their beautiful brains
working and you just have to work with it.
You have to. Accept your partner for who they

(48:33):
are. You can't change them.
I love my wife to death, but my wife is a Virgo.
Everything has to be in a box, it has to be planned and it has
to be set up in a little row. And I'm an Aries, OK.
So listen, I OK, so this is my studio, but look, all my pins
are in the little thing and yeah, we keep.
Everything organized. OK, so before we end this and go
into our fabulous game show thateverybody's excited about, it's

(48:54):
everybody's favorite game show, I want one more question about
the the working out together. I want to know has it improved
your communication skills? I mean, it's improved us not
arguing because if we get mad ateach other we just go to the gym
and both work it out and then afterwards we're pretty much OK.
Do you? Like stink eye each other across
the like, I mean. I don't, but she has an

(49:16):
arresting face that'll make you feel like you're just wrong all
the time. Tom had a.
Good fight that you guys had while you're at the gym and the
and the mannerism. Actually, the last time we
fought, it wasn't even really a fight at the gym.
I think we walked in. We were angered at each other.
I might have not kissed her. I think we went our way and then
made asshole. Yeah.
Exactly what kind of a man am I?I think it was.
The other way around. Wasn't you?

(49:37):
Didn't you guys brush your teeth?
Before you go because it's so early.
Yes. Are you?
Serious. Yeah.
Do you? Brush your teeth first or do you
wait till you get back? What one of?
You meth mouse, don't brush yourteeth before you go to the gym
to stop that I heard. That fluoride can make your your
workout not as good, that's not.True at all.
That's what I heard that's like.Saying sex before the gym is not
good. I didn't say that.

(49:58):
OK, I've. Heard people say you're not
supposed to, you're supposed to wait till afterwards but just
no. Butt plugs I can't.
Tell the difference just. No light up butt plugs because.
That materials. Thin that makes.
It hard to sit on the bench. Ouch.
And if you squat, it might fall out.
You got to be careful. He doesn't.
He doesn't squat. That's probably why.
That's probably the real reason he doesn't squat.
I squat. Oh.

Makes things tighter, yes. Actually, the elliptical does
great. Women, please stay on the
elliptical as many as time as you can.

Light up so. So the old is there more
expensive? OK.
