with Winthrop tonight because hemakes me feel sad when I don't
take him outside.
SPEAKER_00 (00:50):
Yes, I was there.
SPEAKER_04 (00:51):
And I played soccer
in flip-flops, and I'm looking
down at my foot now and it isbruised.
SPEAKER_00 (00:57):
It's a poor choice
that we could.
Don't think that we can callwhat you were doing playing
soccer.
SPEAKER_04 (01:03):
I kicked the ball
once or twice with my flip-flop
on.
SPEAKER_00 (01:08):
I don't think that
I've ever told you this, but I
have to tell you that when I gethome at night, well, this part
you know, when I get home atnight, uh I'm just usually
really exhausted from my my job.
Yes.
And all I want to do is just sitaround.
Yes.
But have I told you this that Ihave an alarm set on my phone?
SPEAKER_04 (01:27):
No.
SPEAKER_00 (01:28):
Yes.
The alarm simply is labeled Playwith Me Daddy.
SPEAKER_04 (01:34):
Oh, that's so sad.
SPEAKER_00 (01:36):
No, it's just a
reminder that I gotta not let
his like every day I see thatnotification, I gotta remember
not to let his childhood go awayfrom us.
Because he's already.
I feel like we talk about thisevery week, something that he
has said that just doesn't feellike something that an
eight-year-old says.
But I still think of him as afour-year-old.
(01:57):
That's part of the thing.
Like you left for four days.
Wherever the hell you I went toTampa.
Um, whatever you supposedly weredoing.
Work.
And I was trying to get him outof the house um on that Monday
because you left Sunday and youcame back on Sunday.
SPEAKER_03 (02:13):
That's not true.
I left on Monday, but okay.
SPEAKER_00 (02:15):
It felt like you
left on Sunday.
No, you didn't.
Yes, I did.
Was it the Tuesday then?
I guess it was the Tuesday.
SPEAKER_04 (02:21):
Oh, right, because I
took him to school on Monday.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was Tuesday.
SPEAKER_00 (02:23):
It was the Tuesday.
The first day that you weregone.
SPEAKER_04 (02:25):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_00 (02:25):
First morning that
you were gone.
I I got up and I got up late,right?
Because it's always difficultfor me to get up on time if
you're not there.
And sent him downstairs to dohis things.
I got myself ready.
I had fixed him a breakfast andI'd given given him his clothes,
and like a fucking idiot assumedthat that was he's eight and
(02:48):
everything will take care ofitself, and then I can just come
down and we can go.
When I got downstairs, he haddone none of the things.
SPEAKER_03 (02:54):
He just sat in front
of the TV, yeah.
SPEAKER_00 (02:56):
Yeah, he did, yeah.
And so I had to take the dog outbecause that's the thing that
you usually take.
SPEAKER_03 (03:00):
I usually do, yeah.
SPEAKER_00 (03:02):
So I said, Winthrop,
eat.
Yeah.
So I take the dog out.
Of course, the dog takes ages.
SPEAKER_04 (03:08):
The dog knows when
you're in a hurry.
SPEAKER_00 (03:10):
No, yeah, he's he's
a very mean little thing.
And hopefully, when he gets hissurgery tomorrow, they remove
his attitude.
SPEAKER_04 (03:20):
Are they are they in
his teeth that need to come out?
Is that where his attitude is?
SPEAKER_00 (03:24):
I don't know where
it is, but he's got a big
attitude.
So finally I get in, and therehe is, Winthrop, still not
having gotten ready, stillhaving a breakfast?
Ate no breakfast.
And so I said, Winthrop, we'vewe gotta go now.
Uh turned off the TV.
Of course, he pitched a fit thatI turned off the damn K-pop
(03:45):
demon hunter soundtrack thathe's fully obsessing of fully
engaged in um hyperfixationmode.
Oh my god.
And I said, Winthrop, we're notgonna be able to have you watch
a little bit of TV in themorning.
And he says to me, No, Daddy,it's a tradition.
SPEAKER_03 (04:04):
It's a tradition.
SPEAKER_00 (04:05):
It's a tradition.
Yes, the pass down throughthrough the Wilson forebears to
you, Winthrop.
It so as he just comes out withthese things.
SPEAKER_03 (04:16):
It's a tradition.
SPEAKER_00 (04:17):
And I what?
SPEAKER_04 (04:18):
No, I was gonna say
that's like when we went to
volleyball and we hadn't beenthere in a while, and he sat
down and he looked at me and hegoes, refresh my memory about
how volleyball works.
Yeah, that's it.
What eight-year-old says,refresh my memory.
SPEAKER_00 (04:29):
I don't know.
I don't know.
F5 my memory is what he shouldsay, because that's the way they
said it.
I I should invent my own likelanguage.
Oh yes.
F5 would be, you know.
Refresh.
Refresh, yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (04:40):
Well, because six
seven is surely driving you
insane.
SPEAKER_00 (04:44):
I still don't
understand what six seven means.
SPEAKER_04 (04:46):
I don't think anyone
really does.
SPEAKER_00 (04:48):
If you're listening
to this podcast right now and
you don't know what I mean whenI say six seven, me neither.
It's a thing that the kids saynow.
They just say six seven, butapparently they don't know what
it means.
SPEAKER_04 (05:01):
They don't.
It doesn't mean anything,really.
It's just they they it's just athing.
Um, but yes, no, I am downstairswith him and I say, Winthrop,
put your clothes on.
I hand him his clothes, and thenI will go into the kitchen and
start making his lunch andmaking his breakfast, and then
continue to say, put yourclothes on.
And he eventually does it, andthen I have to say, eat your
breakfast, eat your breakfast,eat your breakfast.
(05:23):
See, this is a problem.
You weren't down therecontinually saying, Eat your
breakfast.
SPEAKER_00 (05:27):
Well, whatever it
was, we finally got it going,
and then the next the Wednesdaymorning was a little bit easier
because we had already kind offorgotten that you know that you
were a thing.
SPEAKER_03 (05:38):
So thank you.
So at least I am no longer atradition in this family.
SPEAKER_00 (05:44):
Traditions are
easily broken.
I don't know.
Um, but no, yeah, it was it wasI by the time Thursday rolled
around, we were we were cookingwith gas.
We were doing well.
SPEAKER_04 (05:54):
Well, I should have
just stayed gone.
SPEAKER_00 (05:55):
Yeah, well, no,
because I didn't sleep.
SPEAKER_04 (05:58):
I don't sleep when
you didn't sleep well either.
I I miss you, I know.
I miss you when I'm gone.
And the thing is, like I wentfor work, right?
And we were all there.
It was lovely.
I have a lovely group of Gen Xwomen friends that we all live
in different only two of us livein Gainesville, and I wish that
we could be together all thetime.
Like I'm actually tearing upthinking about how much I love
(06:19):
these women and how reallyimportant I think that you know,
female friendships are, as aremale friendships.
I'm just a female.
SPEAKER_00 (06:25):
And we I don't need
you to go having male
friendships.
SPEAKER_04 (06:29):
We had a fabulous
time, and it's like we didn't
even say goodbye to each other.
We all just left after lunch onThursday, and I walked out of
the hotel and I texted them, um,bye question mark.
And they were like, Yep, I'malready at the airport here, but
we don't like we didn't feel theneed to make a big deal about it
because we were in each other'slives all the time.
And but I am not the personthat's like, let's go out, let's
(06:50):
do all the things when I'm on awork trip.
And I love seeing my friends.
We had a great dinner, but I wasin bed by 8:30.
Like, I they were having likelate night karaoke.
Some of these people were, andsome of these people were going
to to trivia, and no, thank you.
I want to be in my bed, I wantto be like cozy in this bed and
not have to tell anybody to goto sleep, but I didn't sleep
(07:10):
well either.
One because I miss you, and twobecause these pillows were
messed up.
There were five pillows on thisbed, and each one of them was a
different thickness.
Like it started out with flatand it went to Mount Everest.
And like I could not decide whatangle my neck needed to be at,
and I'd fall asleep one way andwake up on another one and hurt.
It was a problem.
(07:32):
Also, I faced the runway ofTampa International Airport, so
I could hear planes too.
Now it was on the bay and it wasbeautiful.
I went with um my good friendJessica and we had dinner and we
watched the sunset.
Like we went right at it, it wasbeautiful, but on the other side
of the hotel, airport, sun, notsun country, southwest to be exp
(07:52):
it's exact.
I watched all the southwestplanes take off and land.
SPEAKER_00 (07:56):
Did was there a
window or did it was it just
open air?
SPEAKER_04 (07:59):
It's just no open
air.
I just yeah, yeah, it was awindow.
Goodness.
It was a nice hotel, but I butwe had food and it was like it
wasn't good food.
Like the first night was like anit was supposed to be like a
family dinner.
You weren't there, and it it waslike they had dueling pianos to
entertain us, but I'm confusedby dueling pianos.
(08:23):
Are they supposed to bebattling?
Is it like a rap battle forpianos?
SPEAKER_00 (08:27):
I think that that's
the original conceit, but that's
not what it is anymore.
Now it's just a couple of peopleplaying piano together.
SPEAKER_04 (08:34):
And in my head, they
they play like Billy Joel, or
they play like Garth Brooks, orthey play these songs, but no,
they were playing like well,they were doing K-pop Demon
Hunter songs, but then they werejust also playing, I don't it
was like Shake It Off.
I don't know.
I was very confused.
They were just playing the samesong together.
SPEAKER_02 (08:53):
Right.
SPEAKER_04 (08:54):
There's no dueling,
yeah.
No, there was duading.
SPEAKER_02 (08:56):
Yeah.
SPEAKER_04 (08:57):
Maybe they
misspelled it.
Maybe it's supposed to beduading pianos, I don't know.
But anyway, so then the next dayI went to Top Golf.
SPEAKER_00 (09:05):
And I you went why
why did you go to Top Golf?
SPEAKER_04 (09:09):
Because it was an
event.
It was it was an event, it wassupposed to be like a team
building event.
SPEAKER_00 (09:13):
Okay, t team
building, the worst.
Go ahead.
SPEAKER_04 (09:15):
Okay, so but you've
not been to Topgolf.
SPEAKER_00 (09:18):
No, I don't I assume
it's like putt-putt.
I've been to like putt-putt.
I've been to these indoorputt-putt things.
Is that what top golf is?
SPEAKER_04 (09:24):
No, no, no, no.
Topgolf is open.
SPEAKER_00 (09:26):
Okay.
SPEAKER_04 (09:27):
You are elevated,
okay, and it basically looks
like a giant batting cage.
Like it goes all the way out.
There's um netting like aboveand all around, like a fence.
SPEAKER_00 (09:38):
So it looks like it
looks it's a- You're describing
a driving range.
SPEAKER_04 (09:41):
It's a driving
range, but it's wider.
So it's like kind of almost likea baseball diamond.
SPEAKER_00 (09:45):
Okay.
SPEAKER_04 (09:46):
And there are these
big targets on the ground, like
giant targets.
Like you, so it's like you'realmost like you're playing
darts, but by hitting the golfball.
Okay.
And they all have trackers onthem.
So it it calculates for you likebowling on the screen, and it
gives you points for like hangtime, it gives you points for
however many miles an hour itgoes.
(10:07):
Like it has all of these metricpoints.
And then it has different gamesyou can play.
Now, I played zero games.
I sat and drank my club sodawith Lyme and just watched the
people because I had a migraineall day.
And so I just sat and watchedthe people do this.
But it was open air, it waslovely.
There, um, you can order food,there's a bar, and it you could
(10:27):
like program the games.
So there was one that was AngryBirds.
So it had like an Angry Bird,like you look, remember how I
used to play Angry Birds on yourphone and what it looked like?
It was a structure with thelittle angry pigs, right?
It would show that on thescreen, and then the golf ball,
how far you hit it and where ithit would knock down something
on the screen.
That's cute.
SPEAKER_00 (10:47):
That's cute.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I mean it's cute.
Yeah, I could see where a bunchof dudes would get into it.
But isn't your workplace mostlynot dudes?
SPEAKER_04 (10:56):
No, no, no, no,
because it wasn't my team is
mostly not dudes, but it waslike four or five teams from my
work there.
So there were a significantportion of dudes.
But there were, I mean, a ton ofwomen.
I mean, actually, the pro thegame that I was sitting and
watching, um, I was for surecertain this one dude was gonna
win, but was beat handedly by anot dude.
SPEAKER_00 (11:18):
Oh, well, very good.
Love that.
Yeah, it was good.
SPEAKER_04 (11:21):
It was good.
So it was interesting.
I was all like, because my dadplayed.
I mean, I grew up, my dad wasgone all the time playing golf.
My brothers played golf.
Um, he would occasionally let medrive the golf cart.
He taught um lessons once heretired.
He worked at a driving range,and golf is just not in my
blood, like it is everywhere inmy family.
(11:42):
Makes sense if we're Scottish.
I guess that makes sense.
Although my DNA has beenupdated, and I'm back to being
Irish and Scottish.
SPEAKER_00 (11:49):
That sounds dirty.
How is your DNA updated?
SPEAKER_04 (11:52):
Well, because the
the ancestry.com, they're
constantly refining their theirdata pools, I guess.
And the more samples you take,the more you can narrow it down.
And so uh it told me I was like3% Irish.
Well, I'm back to being 30%, Iwas like 12% Scottish and 3%
Irish, where I grew up thinkingmy whole life I was Irish, but
(12:13):
it now has refined and it'supdated since the two years ago
that I did it, and I'm now like30 something percent northern
Irish and southern Scottish.
Maybe I was like born in the thethe water.
SPEAKER_00 (12:27):
Well, very good
though.
That must make you happy becauseI I know that that you like
growing up you really held on tothe fact that you were Irish.
SPEAKER_03 (12:35):
Yes, but I'm
Northern Irish.
Okay, dairy girls.
SPEAKER_00 (12:39):
Okay, well, I don't
know how I feel about that then,
as long as you're not like thatslag one.
SPEAKER_04 (12:44):
Oh my god, you are a
horrible, horrible person.
Anyway, I went to Top Golf andit was fun, and then um Thursday
I came home and by then you guyshad figured out how to do life
without me.
So that's fine.
SPEAKER_00 (12:55):
One of the ways that
we figured out how to do life
without you is that I orderedDoorDash every day.
SPEAKER_04 (12:59):
That's and the thing
is like you can cook.
Like you are a good cook.
Why did you not cook?
SPEAKER_00 (13:05):
Huh?
Because I didn't want to.
SPEAKER_04 (13:12):
But you didn't.
He didn't go to sleep.
SPEAKER_00 (13:14):
Well, try to go to
sleep.
Yeah, I was just tired.
Um, and I got some good brisket,so there you go.
Brisket that Winthrop loves?
Okay.
Parents out there, does your kiddo this?
One night he absolutely lovessomething that you give him for
the first time, the next time hehates it.
Yeah.
How does that happen?
(13:34):
How does that happen in like 12hours where where he loves
something and then he hates thatvery same thing?
SPEAKER_04 (13:41):
This from the kid
that eats the same damn grape
jelly and crustable in his lunchevery damn day for the whole
school year.
I don't know.
I the only thing I can tell youis because you wanted him to do
it.
SPEAKER_00 (13:54):
No, that's exactly
what it is.
He's such a contrarian.
Yeah.
And I don't know where he getsthat.
Sorry about that because youthat's you.
Um, but that pisses me off, man.
It makes me like I was gonna sayit makes me- Not want to feed
him.
No, no, no.
You kind of have to.
No, um, by law.
SPEAKER_04 (14:14):
You're morally
obligated and legally obligated.
SPEAKER_00 (14:16):
I was gonna say it
makes me not want to tell him to
do things because I just knowthat he's more likely to do what
I want him to do if I don't tellhim to do it.
But I also can't reversepsychology him anymore.
No, oh no, he knows he stressesthat out.
Like he does this thing where hewill well, he will just talk
nonstop or he will sing nonstop.
Especially now because of theK-pop demon hunter thing, he's
(14:39):
just singing these damn songsjust endlessly.
And so I will go to redirecthim, I'll ask him a question,
and he will say to me, You'rejust asking me that because you
don't want me to sing.
SPEAKER_04 (14:51):
Yeah, no, he knows.
SPEAKER_00 (14:52):
So, like, I don't
know what to do.
I don't want to be like, um, Idon't want to raise my voice at
him because he doesn't likethat, and I don't like doing
that, but he there's certainthings he's got to do, and I
gotta tell him to do it.
SPEAKER_04 (15:06):
Yeah, I don't know.
SPEAKER_00 (15:07):
And he's so
hard-headed, or maybe he's just
inertia boy that once he's in adirection, it takes the will of
God and all of the force ofEinstein's gravity to move him
to a different trajectory.
I don't know what it is, but heis nigh yon impossible.
SPEAKER_04 (15:26):
You know, I started
to say, well, maybe we could
like feed into this demon hunterthing and tell him that Guima,
which is the, I think I saidthat right, the the massive
demon is gonna take him if hedoesn't do these things.
But one, I don't I think thatthat's what we grew up with
church, and so we shouldn't dothat, tell people the demons are
coming for them.
Yes, I'd rather not.
Second of all, tonight he wastalking to me about it, and the
(15:49):
the the whole conceit of thisfilm is that the main girl is
part demon, but she's trying tohide it.
SPEAKER_00 (15:55):
She's got a little
of the devil in her.
SPEAKER_04 (15:56):
Yes, she's trying
what was her daddy too.
Um, and she's trying to hide it,and then eventually the whole
can the whole point of the movieis like not hiding who you are
and being full of yourself.
And so he said to me, you know,in the movie where Ginu says
something to Rumi where he'slike, but you're a demon.
What if she just said, Yeah, Iam, and then she went to be with
(16:19):
the demons?
Like she just was like, and I'mno longer a demon hunter, I'm
just a demon.
I was like, Well, the moviewould end, but also I'm glad
that she made a good choice tolike he was like, Oh, really?
Like he was disappointed.
I think he wanted her to justgive in to the demon.
SPEAKER_00 (16:32):
It's just he's he's
feeling the calling of his own.
Yes.
Um, you know, I didn't know thatthis whole K pop demon hunter
thing was like a cultural thing.
It's like a phenomenal.
Like, I just assumed that it wasjust like a little thing that he
had grabbed onto.
No, no, no.
But like frickin' everyone'stalking about this damn movie.
And this is why you're a betterparent than I am.
SPEAKER_04 (16:52):
I am a good parent.
SPEAKER_00 (16:53):
Because of what you
just did.
You just talked to him and toldme about like the plot using the
actual character names and theplot of the thing.
Don't fucking know anythingabout this thing.
It's like it's torture.
It's torture for me.
SPEAKER_04 (17:07):
You should let
yourself watch the movie because
let myself let I'm keepingmyself watching.
You are though.
I think you like you are youare.
SPEAKER_00 (17:14):
There's no one part
of me that wants to see it, and
the other part of me is keepingall of me, does not want to see
it.
All the parts of me are like,it's cute and it's funny.
SPEAKER_04 (17:23):
And didn't we have
didn't you guys watch it like
like the the older children wereinto it?
SPEAKER_00 (17:29):
Oh, yeah, they were.
Andrew is the 21-year-old andDaniel's the the the over
21-year-old.
SPEAKER_03 (17:35):
And they're 25 and
23, but okay.
SPEAKER_00 (17:38):
Andrew is not 23.
Is he?
Jesus.
Okay.
Um anyway, the two boys andDaniel's partner, Raven, um,
came over, and they were soRaven has seen it before, and
she she loves it.
She loves it, and she teared upat the at the appropriate part.
Oh, yeah, no, and uh happy I wasfor them too, because they they
took the heat off me while I wasI was about to say fixing
(18:00):
dinner.
No, while I was callingDoorDash.
DoorDash.
They were watching this damnmovie, but I just I can't make
myself watch this thing.
I just can't.
It's it's cringe.
SPEAKER_04 (18:11):
It's oh my god,
you're cringe for saying cringe.
I was aware of it being thismassive thing, but he was never
into it, so it wasn't part ofour lives.
Like it was super big thissummer.
Oh, was it?
Oh, yeah.
It's been around that long.
It was super big this summer,and they did a thing where they
sold Netflix was like, Oh, watchme capitalize on this.
So they put it in the theatersas a sing-along.
(18:33):
Imagine that if you had to dothat.
SPEAKER_00 (18:36):
Nope.
SPEAKER_04 (18:37):
And like uh people I
that I work with were taking
their kids to the theater to seeit for the sing-along, paying
lots of money to go do it.
I was aware of it, he just wasnever interested in it.
And I think I asked him once ifhe was interested in it, and he
said no.
But it was about three weeks agoor a month ago, you had to work
late.
(18:58):
And so I told him if he got ashower, he could get in bed in
our bed and we could cuddle andwe could watch something.
And he said, Okay, and then hesaid, Well, we might as well
just go ahead and watch K-popdemon hunters because
everybody's talking about it.
SPEAKER_00 (19:12):
I see.
SPEAKER_04 (19:12):
So he was like, not
super like I need to see this,
but kind of like it's culturalcapital and I need to be able to
talk about it.
SPEAKER_00 (19:18):
Yes.
SPEAKER_04 (19:19):
But I think he's
hitting after the big like
everybody's kind of like chilledon it a little bit.
It's still a big deal.
SPEAKER_00 (19:26):
No, it's still a big
thing.
I I'm still I'm hearing about itmore now than I ever have, in
fact.
SPEAKER_04 (19:31):
Well, isn't that the
Bernie Maiden Mayhaw syndrome?
What is that called?
SPEAKER_00 (19:36):
Bader Minah.
The yellow car syndrome.
Yes.
Yes, yes.
SPEAKER_04 (19:40):
I think that's what
that is.
Anyway, he is going to be babysaja for Halloween.
We are having a Halloween partyin which a good friend of ours
is coming, and he and his wifeand his kids, he is also
dressing as baby Saja, and babySaja raps in the movie.
And so our child has challengedthe 40-year-old to a rap battle.
He's already decided it's gonnatake place in the backyard.
SPEAKER_00 (20:02):
Oh, jeez.
Yes, this eight-mile part two,eight-year-old mile.
Oh gosh.
Anyway, y'all heard of K-popDemon Hunter?
I should title this episodeK-pop Demon Hunter too.
SPEAKER_04 (20:15):
I mean, people look
at Google and you'll get some
you'll get some lessons.
SPEAKER_00 (20:18):
If you want to email
us, familiarwilsons at
gmail.com.
If you want to talk about K-popDemon Hunters, I will hand the
email straight to Amanda.
But we have a couple of emails Iwant to catch up to.
Now, we didn't um broadcast lastweek, so these are these are
from a couple weeks ago, but butwe haven't read them yet.
So, first we have our friend Leocatching up with us.
(20:38):
He says, First of all, theflashback game you play is now a
TV show called The Perfect Line.
Oh, it's a great show, whereasthe host provides the anchor.
If it's broadcast in your area,I recommend checking it out
because I think you'll enjoy ittoo.
So there you go.
SPEAKER_04 (20:53):
I did not know that.
Thanks, Leo.
SPEAKER_00 (20:54):
He goes on the talk
of the rapture drives me nuts
every single time I hear it.
Of course, we had that rapturethreat a couple weeks ago and we
did an episode about it.
He said, first and foremost,it's not biblical.
The concept of it was firstintroduced in 1830 by Margaret
MacDonald, then popularized byJohn Nelson Darby through his
movement known asdispensationalist theology.
(21:18):
Bet y'all did not know that youwere going to get some big-time
Christian history uh knowledgeuh in this podcast.
It became popular and basicallyaccepted as truth in 1909 with
the publication of the SchofieldReference Bible.
I think that's SchofieldReference Bible.
What's sad to me is that everytime some nut job proclaims it's
(21:41):
time, there are those who,especially in disenfranchised
populations, who selleverything, quit jobs, and so on
only because they believe thattime is up.
I saw far too many videos thistime around of this happening,
and it literally broke my heart.
Yeah, no, they they takeadvantage, you know.
They're like, you need to getrid of all your stuff, so give
it to me.
(22:01):
Um he continues on.
Amanda, I also love fall, but Ihate the early sunsets.
Before long, it will be gettingdark at 5 30.
I do not like that, Leo.
I agree.
Not sure about you guys, but Ihate the feeling that the day is
almost over at 4 30.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of that.
But this at the same time, itmakes the evenings and the
(22:23):
nights feel longer, which I dolike that.
So I don't know.
It's it's there's a plus and aminus, although we are creeping
uh up to that time where peoplestart to get seasonal, what is
it?
Defective disorder.
Yeah, yeah.
In other words, they getdepressed because it's colder
and it's darker longer.
And so, y'all take take care ofyour mental health and know that
that's coming.
Lastly, Josh, I knew youcouldn't resist the siren call
(22:46):
of meat for much longer.
It doesn't mean you have to be ameat glutton.
Yeah, it does.
Without a doubt, I love veggiesequally as much as meat.
Haha, not me.
Um, and then he ends with, Ithink I'm starting to figure out
why you didn't tell me I leftMiami.
Now that reference is from ashow that we did quite a while
ago.
So good on you, um, Leo, for thecallback.
(23:08):
So there you go.
Thanks, Leo.
SPEAKER_04 (23:10):
Did you hear, did we
talk about the all the people
who were saying the rapture weregonna happen?
And then when people were comingback and saying, Okay, you said
it was gonna happen, and itdidn't that the what some one of
the reasonings was it wasbecause that God didn't know
that we no longer use whatevercalendar that he thought we
(23:30):
used, and so the date was wrong.
SPEAKER_00 (23:33):
You're saying that
God had purchased the wrong
planner.
SPEAKER_04 (23:36):
Yes, that's
basically what they said.
SPEAKER_00 (23:38):
Okay, very good.
SPEAKER_04 (23:39):
Yeah, anyway.
SPEAKER_00 (23:41):
We have another
letter here, another email from
Dan Belson.
Oh goodness, he says good day.
Censor it.
I don't need to censor it.
What are you talking about?
Censor it.
We don't censor on this program.
Good day, Wilsons.
He says, after listening to yourlatest podcast, I knew I had to
get in touch with three pressingmatters.
So pressing that we're readingthem two weeks later.
(24:03):
A, after last week's antics, itappears that Muffy is indeed a
hero and should be treated assuch.
Please pass on my kind words.
SPEAKER_04 (24:11):
I will.
So a little update if you didn'tlisten a couple weeks ago.
Muffy took care of a very drunk,very impaired, I think she was
slip something, girl, and tookher away from very suspect man
and went to the ER with her andmade sure her family was there.
So these girls out there, Gen Zgirls out there taking care of
each other.
Thanks, Dan.
(24:32):
We'll let her know.
SPEAKER_00 (24:33):
Two, he says, I'm
shocked that you haven't quit
your job already, Josh, to seekfame and fortune in the podcast
game.
Don't be afraid to go down theright wing grifting route.
Please ensure you pronounce theword route as us Brits would say
root.
SPEAKER_04 (24:49):
That's incorrect.
Thank you.
And also no no magas here.
Thank you.
SPEAKER_00 (24:53):
No.
Um, but I am gonna go seek fameand fortune in the podcasting
game.
SPEAKER_04 (24:58):
That's just in the
in the self-help world.
SPEAKER_00 (25:01):
Yes, I've started a
new podcast with uh John Spence,
who is a very well-regardedbusiness uh I won't say
influencer, thought leader,that's the the term that I'm
looking for.
But I started a podcast with himabout leading and uh and finding
an awesome life.
So it's it's pretty cool.
You should check it out.
It's called Notes for an AwesomeLife with John Spence.
SPEAKER_04 (25:23):
Um it's really good.
I enjoy it.
Yeah, so I listen to it becauseI enjoy it and not because you
told me to.
Because I wouldn't do it if youtold me to.
SPEAKER_00 (25:31):
That's right.
You and you and Winthrop.
Lastly, he says, finally, greatnews on the pre-menopausal
situation.
Josh, you're an absolute legendto get through such a tough
time.
What a man.
Yeah, for the update that he'stalking about is Amanda now has
the hormone replacement patchfirmly nestled on her buttocks.
SPEAKER_04 (25:57):
Upper buttocks, but
yes.
But I mean, I do I do feeldifferent, right?
Like I'm I'm I got a couple heatflashes or hot flashes, what do
you call those jokers?
But it's much, much better.
It's much better.
Like I feel like I'm a littlechipper.
SPEAKER_00 (26:12):
You're a little
you're a little chatty tonight,
aren't you?
I know I am.
Yes, that's the Amanda that Ilove.
I love you.
Um, okay, so again, if you ifyou want to write us um
familiarwilsons at gmail.com.
SPEAKER_01 (26:25):
No one likes to be
told what to do.
SPEAKER_00 (26:28):
And now is the time
in the program where we tell you
what to do.
Amanda, what should we do?
SPEAKER_04 (26:32):
If you are on the
TikTok, I need you to go over
and I need you to follow JayWomstead.
That is at J.
Womstead W-A-M-S-T-E-D.
He is a middle school teacher inhis 20th year of teaching, and
he will explain 6-7 to you.
If you have any questions aboutany of the memes or any you've
got some children in your lifeand they're saying stuff you
(26:54):
just don't understand, JayWomstead will explain it to you.
I I I find him I find himamusing.
I enjoy it.
It's and it helps you keep upwith the kids.
SPEAKER_00 (27:04):
So you do know what
six seven means?
SPEAKER_04 (27:06):
Means nothing.
SPEAKER_00 (27:08):
Well, can you give
me anything?
Give me anything about sixseven.
SPEAKER_04 (27:12):
Yeah, I'll give I'll
send you Jay Womstead.
SPEAKER_00 (27:14):
So you where does it
come from?
Do you not know any of this?
SPEAKER_04 (27:17):
It's like debated,
right?
So there's this rap song that'sgot six seven in it that maybe
it came from, but now all thesemiddle schoolers have just
picked it up and they say it todrive adults crazy because it
means nothing.
And they'll walk around and go6'7, and it means nothing.
And then there's this littlehand thing where you do your
hands up and down going 6'7.
And I was at the homecomingparade with the children because
(27:38):
oh, we didn't talk about UFfiring their head coach.
SPEAKER_00 (27:42):
I was we also
recommend that.
That's a recommendation.
Fire your head coach.
SPEAKER_04 (27:46):
I mean, it if
they've lost a significant
number of games, but also I'vemany, many feelings on the fact
that we're still paying out thelast head coach.
But anyway, I went to thehomecoming game with the
children, and there were kidsall around yelling at the
floats, six seven, and doingthis just to try to get the
people you know when we werelittle and we used to go honk,
honk at like semi tribes.
SPEAKER_00 (28:08):
Yes, yes.
SPEAKER_04 (28:09):
In the 70s and the
80s, this is the new thing.
They try to get the people to dosix seven.
SPEAKER_00 (28:14):
I dislike it
severely.
SPEAKER_04 (28:16):
Okay, well, go go
watch Jay Womstead on TikTok.
SPEAKER_00 (28:21):
My recommendation is
if you can get yourself in front
of a TV and watch the movie TheBird Cage with Nathan Lane and
Robin Williams, do that.
Very funny.
It holds up very well, andespecially in the climate in
which we find ourselves today.
SPEAKER_04 (28:37):
I am you and Muffy
were having a grand old time
watching it last night.
It was very cute.
SPEAKER_00 (28:44):
Alright, Amanda,
that's all there is.
There is no more.
Final thoughts, anecdotes.
SPEAKER_04 (28:51):
I mean, I'm awake
and I'm ready to just keep
chatting, but you look verytired.
SPEAKER_00 (28:54):
I am very tired and
you're stressing me the hell
out.
I don't like it when I'm tiredand you're like this because it
just makes me feel like like Ihave to stay up and I don't need
you to stay up.
SPEAKER_04 (29:08):
You can't, you just
can't get what you want, can
you?
Like you just I if I'm tired andI don't want to leave the bed
and I'm all like whatever,you're like, I'm worried about
you, and get up and let's go dothings.
