A first grader hands a bus driver a note—“Call 911. My mom is being held hostage.”—and everything stops. We walk through what happened, why a quick-thinking adult matters, and the unglamorous systems that make help possible: routes, names, addresses, dispatch, and the calm to act when rules say “no phones.” That story threads into our life in schools—Kefla’s first IEP in a decade, the anxiety and pride of getting the details right, and the daily tug-of-war between data demands and the five-minute rituals that actually move learning forward.

We talk vocabulary gaps you can hear in a room, how standards crowd out synonyms, and how a simple circle—“How are you, really?”—teaches feeling words, builds trust, and quietly makes readers. We even bring AI into the mix: useful when your prompts have shape, a burden when teachers are already sinking. And because life isn’t just heavy, we veer into homecoming plans, chili season supremacy, a cursed chicken Philly quest that ends in hangry surrender, and a house divided over Napoleon Dynamite and Adam Sandler. Marriage gets its humor chapter: Tulum misadventures, kids improvising duct-tape casts, and why you shouldn’t sit by us at serious events. We close with EV tire lessons (rotate them!), spa bucket lists, and a simple truth—this podcast is our weekly ritual of noticing, laughing, and building a small legacy our family can revisit.

If you care about family, schools, relationships, safety, and the tiny habits that keep a community humane, press play and ride with us. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a laugh and a push, and leave a review to help others find the show.

that I could, because uh it'sbeen 10 years since I've done my
last one.

(02:45):
And uh they was like, well, youyou can be the evaluator.
So I was being the evaluator,typing the minutes, paying
attention, and I was writinglittle notes about, you know, uh

know, being, I guess saying,handled from top to bottom, you
know, fine-toothed comb, makingsure the uh child is getting all

(03:07):
the accommodations andmodifications they need.
So uh it was good becauseeverything that I put into the
system um for the most part wascorrect.
I'll say about 93% correct.
The other stuff was just minorlittle things.
They say, well, just change thisand change that.
Um but it wasn't like, oh no,you messed that up.

(03:28):
So I was I was excited aboutthat.
I'm I'm I'm pleased that itturned out great.
Um what else uh this week?
Oh man, it was hard to get inthe gym.
Like, I I mean not getting inthere, but once I'm in there,
yeah, it was tough.
But what's so cool was uh mybuddy Wayne, who's always in

I said, dude, I felt the sameway, so I felt good about that.
Um but back in there, becausethis week I was supposed to be
going heavy for a while.
I was supposed to be going heavyfor a month.
And then, because I I taperedoff last month, and I just I did

(04:12):
uh because two months prior Iwas doing heavy.
So now I I tapered off this pastmonth and I was just doing
repetitions.
Um you know, moderate weight,but now I'm gonna go heavy and
I'm not doing cardio at thebeginning or intense cardio.
I was running last month month.
This month now I'm just walkinguh 15 to 20 minutes inclined and

(04:36):
then going heavy because if Irun, I'll be too weak to go
heavy, you know.
And so uh I gotta pick up mycardio over these next two
months because I have that dealwith uh Doggy Land, where I'm
supposed to be, you know, in thecharacter suit for the uh
Arizona bowl.
So I gotta get my stamina back.
So I need to get me a weightedvest because that suit is like

(04:59):
30 pounds.
So and it's Arizona.
Yeah, but it's gonna be Yeah,but still, it's is it's we're
coming from cooled air, thenwe're gonna be going to a kind
of hot temperature.

When I did it this summer.
That's interesting.
I need to check that.
But anyway, I'm trying to getthat right.
And um, so I'm making sure getmy get my diet right too.

another spot here, yeah, thenit's it's so spread it out that
it's like you don't get to seeeverybody.

SPEAKER_00 (14:59):

after like an after-gameconcert, old school concert
would be cool.
You know what I mean?
Like, cause because theneverybody's like you know, at
the stadium or on the lawn,somewhere where just the old you
know, alums are there.
That would be dope.
You know, but like you said,when you can have people

(15:37):
spreading out, spread out atthese different spots, that's
what kind of makes it like, ah.
Because remember when we went tothat other thing, it was it was
it was okay.
Because remember they said themusic they were supposed to
have, they was the live band wassupposed to play from this time
to this time.
And they didn't even play.

SPEAKER_03 (16:15):
Yeah.
So we'll see how it goes thistime.
But um I'm looking forward toseeing some of my uh Frat
brothers who uh it's their uh30th, 30th, not about say 35th,
30th uh reunion for them thisyou know year.
And so that's gonna be cool tosee some of those guys because

(16:35):
they were the the the main groupof guys I hung out with when I
transferred to Alabama State.
So um we'll see.
We'll see.
Yep.
And then after that, we are I'mjust trying to help him get to
Thanksgiving.

SPEAKER_00 (16:54):
Are you really?

SPEAKER_03 (16:55):
Yes.
Well, we got this drive.
We gotta make that drive to Butwe're gonna split it up.
With your titty.

SPEAKER_00 (17:03):
We're gonna split it up.
I think one thing I'm lookingforward to is I'm going to a
conference.
I've and so I get to go just mefrom my team.
So it's like a solo getaway formyself.
So I'm excited about going tothe um the conference.

(17:26):
That's like mid-October.
So I'll get three days to um dosome uh restorative practice,
like going to some workshops andconference that's related to
that.
So I'm excited about learningmore, growing my knowledge in

(17:48):
that area.
So um, yeah, I'm always excitedabout a conference.
I like when I get to go and it'sjust me because then I could
just do whatever I want to do.
I want to sit and order hotwings and eat them in my hotel
room, I can do just that.

(18:08):
Yep.
So I like to have a night whereI just do room service and order
food in and just sit and veg onthe bed.

SPEAKER_03 (18:18):
There you go.
So And also when you attend aconference by yourself, you
know, you don't have to say whatwhich, you know, breakout
sessions you want to go to,which one you want to go to?
And and because I know when Iwent to those football and
baseball coaching clinics, youknow, they always thought I was
different.
Well, one, I always went toevery breakout session.
Most coaches don't go, they justsit there in the lobby and talk

(18:40):
to each other because they'reoff work for a day.
Um But I would always it wasjust different things that I
would try to pick up, you know.
And um nine times out of ten, Iwas always the the only coach
from my group going to theopposite direction.

SPEAKER_00 (18:57):
Yeah.
You know, so well, and for me, Iguess now it may be because I'm
getting closer to 50.
But the last few conferencesI've been, I don't care where
everybody else is going.
I'm going where I want to go.
Yeah.
That's how it should be.
Yeah.
Really?
So yeah, I I've done that.
I just think when it comes downto like figuring where where

(19:17):
you're gonna eat, and sometimes,you know, you just have to be
social.

SPEAKER_03 (19:22):
Yeah.
But um I understand eating withyour group.

SPEAKER_00 (19:24):
Yeah, eating with your group, and you have to be
social.
I mean, it's just it's just anexpectation.
So um sometimes it's nice justto be able to go somewhere and
you don't have to be social,it's just a choice.
So if I choose to talk tocertain people that that may be
in a session with me or orwhatever, then I that's a
choice.
But if I just want to go andjust kind of be in my own little

(19:46):
world, I can do that too.
Um, so yeah, I just like kind ofhaving the choice on how social
I feel that I want to be,because you don't always want to
be.

SPEAKER_03 (19:59):
Yeah, you don't want to always be on all the time.

SPEAKER_00 (20:01):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (20:01):
So it's not you have to be on.
I know I have to be on all thetime, you know, in my job.
Like I said, I don't have theoption, you know, you can sit
like you say, well, I'm workingat Brown today, just, you know,
doing my stuff.
I'm working here today, I'mworking in my cubicle today.
I gotta be with the kids, on,you know, and and it's

(20:22):
different.
When it was um P and you know,I'm working out with him and
stuff like that, that's naturalon.
But this other stuff on is like,you know, a lot of patience, a
lot of, especially when thelittle ones keep farting around
me.

SPEAKER_00 (20:38):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (20:39):
Yeah.
You know.

SPEAKER_00 (20:40):

SPEAKER_03 (20:44):
And I thought her phone, I was like, what's your
phone doing vibrating?
And she was like, excuse me.
So, you know, the little plasticchairs, it sounded just like the
phone vibrating.

SPEAKER_00 (20:55):
You did not think that was her father.

co-teacher, um, when she heardme say that, she she started
chuckling.
And she said, Here, he said,Well, at first I did too, but

I finished today um on my way tothe gym, and I can't even get

That's how good the audiobookis.
It is so freaking good.
But it's it's, you know, iftrigger warning, if you
kidnapped or mental illnesses,um slight violence, um does have

(24:02):
a couple uh sex uh scenes.
I think just maybe two.

SPEAKER_00 (24:06):
Um I think you said the title of the book last time.

SPEAKER_03 (24:09):
I did, but they need it.
I don't think nobody listeningto it.

SPEAKER_00 (24:12):
Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 (24:13):
Y'all need to listen to that book.
Yeah, because because um I toldsomebody else, I told somebody
else about it, the book, andthey ain't even tried to listen

So um I went I read went to thenext person close to me, um,
Malachi Brown.
So if he don't listen to thebook by the end of next week,

(24:34):
he's cut off too.

SPEAKER_00 (24:35):
Well, first of all, I just tried to get on Audible.
It's asking for different codesand all things.
I don't even have easy access.
So even if I wanted to, Icouldn't.

SPEAKER_03 (24:47):
But you had access before, right?
No.

SPEAKER_00 (24:50):
I never used Audible.

SPEAKER_03 (24:51):
What when you remember you, where were you
listening to those audiobooksfrom?

SPEAKER_00 (24:55):
What audiobooks?

SPEAKER_03 (24:56):
Remember you was listening to a few audiobooks
and you was like, yeah, I'velistened to them.
You were sharing the uh theaccount.

SPEAKER_00 (25:02):
Well, now it's telling me I gotta have special.

SPEAKER_03 (25:04):
So did were you listening to Audible?

unknown (25:06):
Uh maybe.

SPEAKER_00 (25:12):
Don't recall.

SPEAKER_03 (25:13):
Okay.
It's all good though.
But um, just let me know whatyou need, sweetheart, and I'll
make sure you have it, okay?

SPEAKER_00 (25:19):
Okay.

SPEAKER_03 (25:20):
All right.
But anyway, um, that story wascrazy.
I was just trying to think,like, like, I don't know what,
you know, because I I I don'tdrive the bus for like bus
routes.
I drive the bus for field tripsand stuff like that and games.
But just imagine, like, if akid, if I was driving.

SPEAKER_00 (25:36):
And it just said call 911.
It didn't say anything about me.

SPEAKER_03 (25:39):
Then the kidnapped it just said call 911.

SPEAKER_00 (25:41):
It just said call 911.

SPEAKER_03 (25:42):
I would just, I mean, I know I would, but I I
know I would drive off a littlebit so so that he wouldn't be
like, hey, what the hell theydoing standing, you know.
I would definitely drive off andthen plus you you can't pull
your phone out on the busanyway.
They'll you fire, you send youto jail.
Um, they don't even care ifyou're doing it for that.
I know they wouldn't.
I know they wouldn't.
They wouldn't care.
But um, I would pull off around,like try to park somewhere,

(26:05):
emergency park.
I would call 911 and then I'llcall dispatch and let them know
why I had to pull over.
But that would be insane.

SPEAKER_00 (26:14):
Yeah, he broke two of her ribs and punctured her
lung.
Were they dating or were theybecause uh It just says he's
accused of having assaulted thewoman several times throughout
the night.

SPEAKER_03 (26:27):
That's what I was wondering.
Did they know each other?
Like he just bust in the house.

SPEAKER_00 (26:29):
Kicking her enough force to break two ribs and
puncture her lung.

SPEAKER_03 (26:34):
At the very beginning, they don't say
nothing about him knowing.

SPEAKER_00 (26:36):
And then it says she was unable to call for help.
Yeah.
So she wrote that on the note.
And um crazy.

SPEAKER_03 (26:49):
That's crazy.

SPEAKER_00 (26:50):
Yeah, and he oh, it says domestic abuse.

SPEAKER_03 (26:53):
Oh, so they knew each other.

SPEAKER_00 (26:54):
It says he had he has been charged with armed
kidnapping, willful injury,domestic abuse assault with the
intent to inflict seriousinquiries and obstruction of
emergency communications.

SPEAKER_03 (27:07):
And how much again?

SPEAKER_00 (27:08):
1,500.
I remember reading that part.
I said$1,500.

SPEAKER_03 (27:12):
Because if you do a uh 10% of that.
That's$15,000.

SPEAKER_00 (27:15):
Oh, wait, no.

SPEAKER_03 (27:16):
$15,000.

SPEAKER_00 (27:17):
Oh no, I'm sorry.
I thought that was a 10%, the$1,500.

SPEAKER_03 (27:20):
No, that's if if that's his So that's$150?
Yes.

SPEAKER_00 (27:23):
You're lying to me.

SPEAKER_03 (27:24):
Okay.
Okay.

SPEAKER_00 (27:27):
After doing all of that, but he's oh look, it says
he's also being detained throughimmigrations because he's from
the Bahamas.

SPEAKER_03 (27:34):
Yeah, from the Bahamas, yeah.
So the uh ICE.
So Ice has him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So yeah, he he ain't goingnowhere.
If it is$150 to pay, he's stuck.
Like sure.

SPEAKER_00 (27:47):
Uh-huh.
Yeah, I don't know if I got if Iwould have gotten a note that
said call 911.
I wondered if the bus driverlook at it and say, why?
Because I'm sure the ch thechild knew what was going on,
because I'm sure they heard allthe commotion.

SPEAKER_03 (28:00):
And it depends on who, because you know, some
people, other than, you know, alot of people in your family,
you know, um, they may have seenthe note and be like, what's
going on?
Why should I call 911?
You know, where?

SPEAKER_00 (28:18):
And I was but but I guess what I'm thinking of is
They're not like us.
I'm just kind of thinking, like,if they said call 911, maybe the
bus driver was aware where helived.
I'm like, how do the police knowwhere to go?

SPEAKER_03 (28:31):
Bus driver told him.

SPEAKER_00 (28:33):
If you call 911, how do he know it's his because I
guess if they picked up from thehouse?
Yeah.
Because for for like if you ifwe're thinking of our community,
the kids all go to the front.

SPEAKER_03 (28:45):
But you also know who I got the note from.

SPEAKER_00 (28:47):
So do the bus drivers know address?
They know all the kids'addresses.

SPEAKER_03 (28:52):
Or you took you know their names, yes, so that's what
I'm saying.
You if you know the kids' name,you get you can get the bus the
uh bus route.
Okay.
You know, they're registered.
Yes, they're registered.
Okay.
So they'll say, What's yourname?

SPEAKER_00 (29:02):
So if they called in the city.
Timothy Smimothy.

SPEAKER_03 (29:04):
Yeah, so then they'll say Timothy Smimothy
lives at 1515 West Northwestplace.

SPEAKER_00 (29:10):
So maybe that's what they did.
Right.
So yeah, it's because he was hewas just a first grader, so he
may not.

SPEAKER_03 (29:16):
Yeah, some yeah, I knew I knew I live, boy, when I
was a little boy.

SPEAKER_00 (29:19):
Yeah, we all knew that.
That was a requirement.
Yeah, you had to say But some ofthese babies move so much they
don't they can't keep up withtheir address.

SPEAKER_03 (29:26):
And they don't even know the telephone number.

SPEAKER_00 (29:28):
Mm-mm.
Because the phone number changesor even if it don't.

SPEAKER_03 (29:32):
They just don't know it.
The button.
They hit the button.
Like if they can't read, theylook for the picture.

SPEAKER_00 (29:39):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (29:39):
And bang, that's it.

SPEAKER_00 (29:41):
So that I'm sure the mama was thankful.
Yeah.
But I'm sure um even for thebaby, he knew what that note
said as a first grader.

SPEAKER_03 (29:52):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (29:54):
So he knew to get that his mommy needed help.

SPEAKER_03 (29:56):
Yeah.
We were talking today in uh oneof my um Not a PL, but um guided
coalition where a team of uhteacher leaders come together
and we was talking about how toincrease maybe you know literacy
or something like that.
And my group was talking abouthow to increase vocabulary

(30:17):
amongst um our students.
Because let's say, for example,if you give the word mad, um
sad, happy, okay, but then yousay, you know, I feel happy,
okay.
Like what kind of happy?
I don't know.
Like they don't know any othersynonyms for happy for happy,
right.
Or any other, because mad may bejust frustrated.

(30:41):
It may be whatever, you knowwhat I mean?
And so we were we were talkingabout how can we get kids to uh
because when they're trying topull the context clues out of
the story, they don't knowactually how that character was
feeling because they'll see theword and it may not say mad or
happy.
So they were like, I don't knowhow you felt about it.
And so I was thinking and I waslike, you know what?
When we did vocabulary, we hadto write down, some days we do

(31:05):
synonyms, antonyms, you know.
So we had to know all of thesedifferent things about one
particular word.
But I recalled, you know,helping a student with their
vocabulary and then, you know,for another course, and it's
just the word and the meaning.
You know, they don't even haveto I mean even even back then in

(31:26):
our day, we had to write down,was it a noun or an adjective?
We had to write that down, andwe had to write the meaning.
You know, then we had to writeum a synonym for it and use a
synonym in a sentence so that wecan expand our vocabulary.
But that's not the case anymore.
You know what I'm saying?
So um, and I've noticed thatjust when you talk to kids,

(31:51):
their vocabulary is basic.
Like everything is, you know howwe say when teaching, you now
teach to the standard, that youdon't teach all the other world
stuff about just so if I go toanother country or oh, I know
that because I just, you know,my teacher just taught me that.
Kids don't know that now.
If it's not based off a standardS, this standard S4 or whatever,

(32:13):
they don't know the extra littlestuff.
You know what I'm saying?
And so I just thought that wouldthat was that was interesting.
I was like, dang, so and so meand another teacher was like,
well, if we keep doing this,like no doubt AI is gonna take
over some people's capabilities.

SPEAKER_00 (32:32):
That's why I think it's that thing to me, that's
where the relationship buildinghap should happen.
And to me, that helps to gobeyond text.
So let's say, for instance, whenwith teachers having some sort
of what do you do as arelationship builder with your

(32:56):
students?
Do you have check-ins, likewhere they can check in where
what they're feeling today?
Do you circle up and havecertain on Mondays or whatever
day, and y'all have a questionthat you discuss?
Like, if you could go anywherein the world, where would you go
and why?
Like, what are you doing to growand build relationships?

(33:20):
Because then to me, that isdiscussion that happens outside
of the um content that not onlyallows them to talk about things
beyond school, but then alsobuilds connection between you,
the teacher and the student, andthe students and students

(33:40):
together.
But then you're gonna maybe talkabout some of the other feeling
words.
Maybe somebody else will sharesomething different of a feeling
word that that you didn't know,or they're gonna share about a
place that they would like to goto, or maybe you mention
something and somebody says, Oh,I've been there.

SPEAKER_05 (33:57):
Right, right.

SPEAKER_00 (33:58):
You know, so like to me, that is what kind of creates
a complete uh classroomcommunity where it it doesn't
just revolve around content andstandards, but there's some
human, I guess some human, Idon't want to say, well, human
aspect.
Yeah, human.

SPEAKER_03 (34:17):
Um to it.
It's it's um I will tell youthis, it is hard to do just
seeing the classroom.
And I'm I'm not saying it's it'snot hard to do if you do it.

SPEAKER_04 (34:28):
Right.

SPEAKER_03 (34:28):
But it's hard to do because there's no time for it
anymore.
When I tell you some of theseclasses, and and and and I know
why they ran that way, isbecause the demand that they're
receiving from above, it's this,then hit this, then hit this.

(34:48):
Like really it's almost likethat.

SPEAKER_00 (34:50):
But what that but what they don't understand is
that if you could do therelationship here that that that
they you would get so much more.

SPEAKER_03 (35:03):
Trick Crete, I agree.
But data students data isthey're so data-driven that they
don't have time.
And this is the complaint thatmany of us have.

SPEAKER_00 (35:14):
But do you think that that that is admin?
Because there are some schoolsthat are doing.
There are there are some.

SPEAKER_03 (35:22):
There are some.
There are some.
And but when I tell you, and andthe and some of those ones that
are doing those things are someof the ones who will say, well,
I'll just it's it's kind of likeask for for forgiveness rather
than permission, because the wayit's coming down, and that's why
you hear a lot when I when I'mtalking to people, a lot of

(35:43):
people do not want to go intoadmin because they're seeing the
same thing, that it is sorobotic, so structured uh to the
point that there's no freedomfor that, that old aspect of
classroom, getting to know mystudents and all that.
And this is when they want youto do it.
Character ed, which is not everyweek.

SPEAKER_00 (36:04):
No.

SPEAKER_03 (36:05):
And once you have it, then it's like the kids
like, I only see you, I'm notopening up to you that I don't
know, no, no.

SPEAKER_00 (36:12):
Yeah, that makes zero sense.

SPEAKER_03 (36:13):
Exactly.
And so it's and and it's andit's not even the stuff that the
kids are going over sometimes incharacter ed is all is it's like
uh a prefix menu.
You know, the prefix menu, if Idon't like this, I can't even
offer.
It's like no substitutions.
So they go in there and they'relike, y'all didn't even just

(36:37):
sometimes just ask us, or let'ssay, what's going on?
What's the culture like oncampus today?
What's been happening?
What is there something that'sreally, you know, what's what's
going on?
You know, do we need to knowsomething?
That those are greatconversations.
And but but when you're in thosecontent classes, they I'm
telling you, and me being inthis new position, I'm seeing

(37:00):
it.
And I'm like, whoa, I thank GodI had health.
And now I see why myrelationship was so different
with my kids, because in health,one, it's an elective, so they
they're not as uh rigid.

SPEAKER_00 (37:10):
It's not as rigid, yes.

SPEAKER_03 (37:11):
And and and you know, they kind of, oh, as long
as ain't nobody dying down therein the PE hall, y'all okay.
But it also, my topics opened upmore for conversation.
Um, but it's just and and I'mtelling you, I've I agree, you
know, I'm a relationship person,but I see it.
And some of these teachers thatwant to, based off of their

(37:34):
leadership, meaning like theirdepartment head, and we gotta
hit these standards, guys.
We can't do this, we can't.
Like there's no time for both ofthem.

SPEAKER_00 (37:42):
I just feel like five minutes.

SPEAKER_03 (37:46):
I'm listening.

SPEAKER_00 (37:48):
Five minutes.

SPEAKER_03 (37:49):
Listen, Kree.
Listen, I'm with you.

SPEAKER_00 (37:52):
Five minutes, but And y'all are blocked scheduled.

SPEAKER_03 (37:56):
There are times, baby, when we when as soon as
they sit down, bam.
It's automatic because they gotthe learning target or they got
the learning.

SPEAKER_00 (38:05):
I don't hear complaints about vocabulary and
expansion and all the thingswhen you can't give five minutes
to the piece that would assistin that.

SPEAKER_03 (38:16):
And that's what's so hard.
Cause even when I when I broughtthat, because I I um use our
buddy ChatGBT to help me come upwith a measurable goal of how we
can use uh um how we can putvocabulary across all subjects,
you know.
Um and what did Chat say?
Oh chat gave me somethingamazing.
And I but I gave it, I gave itto the principal too.

(38:38):
Because he likes AI, and I'mtelling him, I said it's about
the prompt.
And I have to keep telling someof the principals don't like,
but I say it's about the prompt.

SPEAKER_00 (38:44):
Yeah, is how you ask.

SPEAKER_03 (38:45):
Right.
You still have to do the work.

SPEAKER_00 (38:46):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (38:47):
They're just it's just like them, you go into a
leadership page and they'regiving you a manual.

SPEAKER_00 (38:51):
You've got to also know what you want.

SPEAKER_03 (38:53):
That's right.

SPEAKER_00 (38:54):
And so when you just on there all willy-nilly, you
don't know, so you don't knowwhen they give you one thing,
like, ah, that ain't quite whatI want.
Let me ask, uh, can you put thisin?

SPEAKER_03 (39:03):
You know, Chat is amazing for a creative mind.

SPEAKER_00 (39:06):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (39:06):
For an ADHD mind, because if you say all these
different things that's on yourmind, chatter do like this, and
it's kind of like the matrix,those numbers, and all of a
sudden they come together.
But anyway, with my group, westarted thinking about it and we
was like, this is amazing.
But then we all stopped andsaid, But that's more work for
the teachers.
And we was like, Yep.
So we know they're not gonna doit.
You know what I mean?
That's that's the first thingthat we're thinking of is like,

(39:29):
they're not gonna do it becauseit's it's gonna be another thing
on their plate.
Um, it's so sad.
It it is it is very sad, youknow.

SPEAKER_00 (39:38):
Um, but I have to talk about this forever.

SPEAKER_03 (39:41):
Me too.
And we we should jump off of itnow, but um because that makes
zero sense to me.
It does, but when it's comingdown like that, it's so much in
education that makes zero senseto us that we wish that we could
just design it the way we wantto, but you know, it is oh Lord.

SPEAKER_00 (39:59):
But the thing about it is there are some people that
are doing the works.
There are people, there areschools that are doing the
things to grow well rounded umand students who are who will,
you know, I won't say be anasset to our society, but they

(40:22):
will be because they will bethey will be um individuals with
the with a good amount ofempathy.
They're gonna be individuals umwho can hear the perspective of
others.
They're gonna be pe they'regonna be people who um know how

(40:44):
to regulate and cope when thingsget challenging, like they're
preparing, they're gonna knowhow to communicate and disagree
respectfully.
Like all of those things you cando as as relationship building
things that take five minutes aday or 15 minutes one time a

(41:04):
week is just uh essentiallycontributing to positive people
in our world.
I mean, like people who who arejust well-rounded.
And I just think not doing thatbecause you're worried about
standards that some of thesebabies are never gonna use in
their careers.

SPEAKER_03 (41:24):
Yeah um But you and I both know that the people that
create a lot of these standardshave they even stepped foot in
the classroom or they've beenout of the classroom so long
that they're forgetting that,oh, we need to get these
relationships back.
Yeah.
Because a lot of that stuff was,you know, some of our parents
were sitting down at the tablewith us, helping us with our
homework.
But now it's different.

(41:44):
You know what I'm saying?
And so you got now people don'teven give homework.
So that aspect of sitting downwith your kid, teaching them
things, saying, oh no, it'slike, you know, like what was
this answer, Mom?
Oh, it's kind of like when youX, Y, and Z.
Yeah.
That's gone now.

SPEAKER_00 (41:59):
You know, so it's it's needed.

SPEAKER_03 (42:01):
It is it's needed like now.
Or like or you're likeyesterday, I guess you should
say.
It's needed like yesterday.
For sure.
So, all right, pull your phoneout.
Yes, let's do some questions andanswers.

SPEAKER_00 (42:16):
Okay.

SPEAKER_03 (42:17):
So I can learn a little bit about you that I
don't already know.

SPEAKER_00 (42:21):
Okay.

SPEAKER_03 (42:21):
All right, you got it?
I got it.
I was getting ready to go into acommercial.

SPEAKER_00 (42:25):
All right, no more commercials.
Because we aren't getting paid.
All right.
What's the worst TV show one ofus forced the other to watch?

SPEAKER_03 (42:38):
Oh man, it was some movie you made me watch that one
time.

unknown (42:41):
What?

SPEAKER_03 (42:42):
I don't even remember.
Well, oh man, it it ended so Ican't even go into it, but it
was it ended so just it upsetme.
It was probably about two yearsago.
I can't think of the movie, butwe watched it downstairs, and it
was just, I was like, what?
You made me watch this.
I was so remember we were so madat the end, how it ended.

SPEAKER_00 (43:03):
It was like I can't remember.
Was it a Tyler Perry movie?

SPEAKER_03 (43:06):
It might have been, I don't know, but it it ended so
I'm talking about I wasfrustrated for like a week
thinking about it, and I wasjust so ticked off how it ended.
It may have been a Tyler Perry,but anyway, it was um had to be
one of them.
Uh other than that, you know, umI I watch all the I watch

(43:27):
everything else, you know.
I'm good.
But I just know that I can'tthink of the movie, but you made
me watch something one time thathad me so discombobulated for at
least a week.
I was livid.
I was beside myself.

SPEAKER_00 (43:46):
Now, um also he's a lot of shows that I watch.
It's like I can't watch this.
First, he he does well, then helosing.
This is just too much for mynerves.
I can't take it.

SPEAKER_03 (43:59):
Yeah, I hate to see people never do well.
Like, for example, Tyler Perry,Sisters or Jotima.
I know it's drama, but likeeverything in your life is just
jacked up.
Okay, so then this is not theshow for me.
You know what I mean?
I need to have where you have tohave a bad time and then come.
I gotta see you win.

(44:19):
I just it for me, my psyche, ifyou are what I deem to be a
deserving person, I need to seeyou win.
I don't need to see the worldjust beating you down every
time.
Like, I can't.
Because you might need to move,you know, if it's in your city,
move, go to another city,because this city is not hidden
for you.
But it's it really does, becauseI um I'm I take in everything

(44:43):
feeling-wise.

SPEAKER_00 (44:45):
Okay.

SPEAKER_03 (44:45):
You know what I'm saying?
And then it just too much, itgets too much.

SPEAKER_00 (44:50):
I think for me, your shows are really the dry humor
shows you like.
Like.

SPEAKER_03 (44:58):
What's one of my favorite ones?
Before we got married, we waswith Daryl Nim.
We watched it, and nobodylaughed.
I was the only one laughing.
And I still laugh on that movieto this day.

SPEAKER_00 (45:09):
Napoleon Dynamo?

SPEAKER_03 (45:10):
Yes, indeed.

SPEAKER_00 (45:11):
I was gonna name that.
My God.

SPEAKER_03 (45:14):
That movie is just It's the best, it's one of the
greatest movies of all time.

SPEAKER_00 (45:19):
No, and he would go around, he thought it was so
funny.
You have my taunts.

SPEAKER_04 (45:26):
I'm just like, why?

SPEAKER_03 (45:28):
I showed that movie every every year, every semester
for health.
We were talking about umself-esteem, bullying, stuff
like that, how he was bullied,but he carried a high level of
self-esteem, and it's okay to becool in the skin that you're in,
even if your group is an awkwardgroup.
Yeah, at the end of the movie,everybody fell in love with

(45:48):
them.
That is a important veryimportant movie.

SPEAKER_00 (45:51):
Yeah, uh, yeah, I loved it.
Yeah, some of that I just don'tlike even like um I think you
and Koli like Adam Sandler.

SPEAKER_05 (46:01):
Yes, that's my good.

SPEAKER_00 (46:03):
And his movies, and one day Khali's like, come over,

He loves the same little AdamSandler uh humor, and yeah, uh
those things I'll Koli knowwhat's up.
I'd rather not.

(46:24):

So I would think that that islike some of those dry humor
things that you're dyinglaughing at, and I'm just like,
I'll pass.

SPEAKER_03 (46:35):
You have to see, it's like it's it's so much more
into the how they did it andwhat they wrote it for and
stuff.

(54:33):
Are are we the ones that'scrazy?
That's what I see our titlewould be.
Oh, that would be because wealways saying everybody crazy.
But maybe since there's thatmany people that's crazy, maybe
we the ones that crazy, we justsee it differently.

SPEAKER_00 (54:46):
Uh-huh.
Yeah, that's what we all expect.

SPEAKER_03 (54:48):
Our title be are the we the ones that's crazy.

I like that one.
Um it could be the title of ourpodcast.

SPEAKER_03 (55:11):
Refreshingly normal podcast available on all podcast
platforms.

SPEAKER_00 (55:16):
And then we would have things that would like kind
of because it kind of kind ofcoincides with are we the crazy?
Because then maybe it'll showthings that we think are
refreshingly normal, and thenother people be like, uh uh.
Oh, y'all crazy.

SPEAKER_03 (55:28):

SPEAKER_00 (55:36):
That's what I would call it.
Um, the sitcom.
All right.
Um, if we wrote a book aboutmarriage, what would the
funniest chapter or content inthe marriage book be?

SPEAKER_03 (55:53):
Um I would have to say, I'm gonna just say um, it
would have to have something todo with Tulum.
Cause that last day of Tulloonain't nothing.
I was trying to think the otherday, just I said, have we had a
funnier moment with Ricky theRaccoon and Malachi and them

(56:18):
birds?
Like, it really, like, butthat's what us witnessing that
kind of stuff happens on aregular for us.
You know what I'm saying?
And so I I just think thechapter where um we would
probably call it like uh You'llNever Believe What Happened, or

(56:42):
it'll be titled, uh, oh,remember that one time when, you
know.
Um, but yeah, we we would wewould or laughter is the best, I
don't know, I wanna say medicinefor marriage.

(57:02):
I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 (57:03):
Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (57:04):
Because we we do laugh, like we've had some hard,
hard laughs.
Like, frequently.
Yeah, that's one thing about us,I've you know, you and I, we
will we would have some hardlaughs.
Like, even when we're not withour boys, we're not with our

(57:24):
parents, we have some hardfreaking laughs.

the humor in marriage, maybesomething like that.

And then your eyes all of asudden go.
Oh, what is that?
No, it's alright, don't worryabout it.
Cause I was talking to you, andthen all of a sudden you just
like I wasn't talking to you.

SPEAKER_00 (01:05:23):
That ties my hide.

SPEAKER_03 (01:05:25):
Well, your hide gonna be tied.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (01:05:28):
That's alright.

SPEAKER_03 (01:05:30):
Yeah.
But that's what that's what Ido, and that's what you do.
But don't nobody do let you doby do.
Whatever.
Alright.
What's next?

SPEAKER_00 (01:05:41):
All right.
Last one.

SPEAKER_03 (01:05:44):
Okay.

SPEAKER_00 (01:05:46):
Um, who's I already know the answer to this.
What is it?
Well, I don't know.
Who's more likely to survive azombie apocalypse and why?
Y'all know why he is?

(01:06:07):
Because he's gonna leave me.
Let me tell you what he did tome when we were dating.
We went to a haunted house,right, as a group.
We in the haunted house, ofcourse.
The monsters and saw people arecoming at you.
I duck, he takes off running andleaves me.

(01:06:33):
Start from the beginning, andleaves me with the Saul man.

SPEAKER_03 (01:06:38):
Start from the beginning.
The beginning.
So we're in the hunted house,and you know, like the people
come out, ah, and she'll go, ah,and I'm behind her.
And so she, you know, alwaysfalling, like turning to me.
And when she turned to me,somebody'll come from behind,
and then I can't run.
I'm like, go forward.
Or she'll hear something frombehind and she'll stop, but

(01:06:59):
there's nothing in front.
And so she'll hear the noise,and I'm like, go, go, go.

SPEAKER_05 (01:07:03):
She's like, ah, what, what, what?

SPEAKER_03 (01:07:05):
I'm like, just go, go.
So we can't go and we're alwaysgetting caught.
And so I was like, I'm veryscary, but I like to be scared
in a structured environment.
Like, I don't watch hauntedmovies, scary movies at all.
I do not.
Um, and so she kept on doingthat, and I was like getting
like just ooh, like, okay, thisis getting real scary.

(01:07:26):
So I said, You all right, youknow, I'm gonna leave you.
So one time the the monster mancame from the front, and then
she fell back, and then one camefrom the back.
And I said, ah! And she justwouldn't go and I just boom, I
just took off running.

SPEAKER_00 (01:07:39):
And left me.

SPEAKER_03 (01:07:40):
Left her.
So I ran out the wrong door andI wound up hitting, I ran into
it out a door and went into likea supply closet, boom, and it
kind of hurt my ribs.
But then we got back in there,and then I was well deserved.
I was like, well, you bettercome on.
And um, so it's about survival.

SPEAKER_00 (01:07:59):
So that's the reason why I would not survive.
Yeah.
Because it is really gonna be.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:05):
I'm gonna tell her to run and she's gonna be, ah,
ah no.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:09):
It's really gonna be gonna get her.
Every man for himself.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:12):
And they're gonna get her.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:14):
So that is the reason why I wouldn't survive
because my husband would justleave.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:17):
Or she ain't paying attention.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:18):
He would just leave me.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:20):
She ain't paying attention because she's playing
um Uno Uno on the phone.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:24):
I love Uno.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:25):
Dying.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:26):
I love it.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:27):
That's all a zombie gotta do, like, free Uno
credits.

SPEAKER_04 (01:08:31):
She's like, oh, I got it.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:32):
Let me all eight up.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:36):
Ooh, free Uno coins.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:41):
And they're gonna eat her up.
Dead.
All right.
Um, well, tonight is thepremiere of Abbott Elementary.
So we're about to get out ofhere so that she can watch
Abbott Elementary.
Did you record it or you forgot?

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:54):
I love how he's saying she.
He loves it just too.

SPEAKER_03 (01:08:57):
I do, but you're the main one.
What when right when I wasgetting in the shower, what did
you say?
Oh, make sure it's good.
And then downstairs, what'd yousay hit Miss Abbott?

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:04):
Because, you know, I ever since we downloaded the new
um iPhone, what is it called?

SPEAKER_03 (01:09:14):
The uh iOS 26.

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:17):
Yes.
There's no room on my phone, sothen I had to switch it up.
So then apps that I'm not usingoften, they delete.
That not deleted, they not um,you gotta download them again.
So then the Hulu came up, then Ihad to wait for it to download.
Then I needed his password.
I just said forget it.

(01:09:39):
So, anyways, I probably have towatch Abbott tomorrow, man.
Tomorrow.

SPEAKER_03 (01:09:44):
But you she could have easily said, um, babe, I
I'm not able to hit record.
Can you do it on your phone?

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:51):
Well, I could have said that.
But every time I ask him aboutan app, he says, Oh, I gotta
download it again because hisphone doing the same dang thing.

SPEAKER_03 (01:10:00):
But don't I download it again right then?

SPEAKER_00 (01:10:02):
Sure you do.

SPEAKER_03 (01:10:04):
Okay, so there's a solution.

unknown (01:10:07):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (01:10:07):
I said we don't have time to be mad, we just we have
time to get it right.

SPEAKER_00 (01:10:11):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 (01:10:12):
That's it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:10:13):

hilarious.
Y'all, my memory has gotten sobad.

SPEAKER_03 (01:11:13):
She was outside and she tripped and she started
singing, I never fall.

But you think I don't remember.
That's the problem.
I remember, and you always say,No, that's wrong.
And I'm like, all right.
And so I stopped, I leave italone.
Because I'd rather be, as Isaid, previous episodes, I'd
rather be happy than be right.
So um gosh.

SPEAKER_00 (01:11:41):
I like the one when they was all, when the little
boy thought they was all high.
When they were when they whenthey were talking in the
teaching out and the studentoverheard them talking about
something.

SPEAKER_03 (01:11:51):
Yeah, yes.

SPEAKER_00 (01:11:52):

SPEAKER_03 (01:11:54):
I like uh when the little girl said, I'm you, Miss
Barbara.

SPEAKER_04 (01:12:01):
The hundred days of school, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (01:12:03):
Or when the one boy told her, Well, you do always

So it's always, I mean, we cango on and on.

SPEAKER_03 (01:12:14):
And the mom, what the mom told her?

Oh, I'm not the one, the two, and I'll be up there to

SPEAKER_00 (01:12:28):
It's so many funny things from Abbott.
I mean, it's so well written.
Um, yeah, I love it.

SPEAKER_03 (01:12:33):
Yeah, we could we could be Abbott.
Like, you know, seeing I Idefinitely know, like said,
let's we said this before, theschool that we worked at in
Dallas could be AbbottElementary.

SPEAKER_06 (01:12:44):
Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03 (01:12:45):
Um I I would love to be on Abbott.
Um, definitely.
I I could be the second janitoror something.
I don't know.
Just but trust me, I'm a perfectfit.
Because I got something I coulddo.
Well, um, so what are yougrateful for?

SPEAKER_00 (01:13:05):
Are we not doing side-eye?

SPEAKER_03 (01:13:06):
Oh, ooh, side eye, yes.
Oh, I had a great one too.
Oh, shoot.
Dang it.
Well, what's so go go ahead.
Uh you going first this time.
Okay.
And I'll I'll try to get it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:13:18):
I am side-eyeing any software that you got to clip
videos for.
Because I'm creatingpresentations.
I gotta clip it because there'sa new little way we got to do
the videos.
And uh nobody has showed me.

(01:13:40):
Maybe my as I'm getting older,technology is not my friend, but
it was quite challenging.
And uh I was so frustrated.
I called my tech guy to kind ofgive me some tech support
because it wasn't no techsupport anywhere in the building
I was in, and my tech support, Itold them, I said, listen, I'm

(01:14:04):
frustrated and I might be short.
It ain't about you.
So I did say that because Ididn't want him to get all his
feelings if I was acting likeshort and and also you got it.

SPEAKER_03 (01:14:18):
I I'm a big fan, you I mean a big proponent of you
have to learn how to separateyour problem from the person.

SPEAKER_00 (01:14:25):
And I am the same because I think it's important
to regulate yourself and dowhatever.
And so I think, you know, ifyou're having a challenging day
that instead of taking it out onother people, or if you kind of
feel like you still in the youstill in the moment, you let
people know, listen, it's notabout you.
I just had a rough day.

(01:14:45):
Like you should do that.
If not, people are gonna judgeyou and think you a nasty acting
person, and so, or a person whodoesn't know how to regulate
their emotions.
And so, anywho, my side eye isto complicated um software when
trying to clip YouTube videos,it frustrated me to no end.

(01:15:08):
Um, I still have not solved theproblem, so I'm waiting for
somebody to give me more techsupport so that I can accomplish
this task for videos in mypresentations, but that's my
side eye.
I'm signing all that foolishnessbecause it was very it was

(01:15:30):
challenging.

SPEAKER_03 (01:15:31):
So, my side eye, I'm gonna let you tell my side eye.

SPEAKER_00 (01:15:37):
I don't know why you want me to tell it.

SPEAKER_03 (01:15:39):
When I when we went to get the Phillies.
Uh huh.
And the first part, I was like,again, and then the second part.

SPEAKER_00 (01:15:47):
Why'd you just tell it?

SPEAKER_03 (01:15:49):
Because you like to tell, Kimani, let me tell you
what's your daddy.
Your daddy did.
Keemani, oh my God.
So Oh yes.
Right, right.

SPEAKER_00 (01:15:57):
Okay, I forgot about it.
Okay.
So when we were on break, we umthere's a place that sells
chicken fillies.
Now, Keith and Kimani have been.
They bragged about it.
Nicole has been several times.
Our cousin Nicole has gone.
They have bragged about, oh mygosh, these are the best uh
fillies.

SPEAKER_06 (01:16:17):
Yep.

SPEAKER_00 (01:16:17):
And so this one, of course, can't eat beef or pork.
Yeah.
So he needs a chicken filly.
And they had a chicken fillythat he just felt like was so
good.
Amazing.
So one time we went, and we knowthey sell out, and we kind of
went later in the evening.

SPEAKER_03 (01:16:32):
About two hours before closing.

SPEAKER_00 (01:16:34):
Yeah.
So when we went, they had soldout of uh chicken fillies.
Um, so we went um last week.

SPEAKER_03 (01:16:42):
Two hours after opening.

SPEAKER_00 (01:16:43):
Two hours after opening, we walk in there and
the man's like, hey, how y'alldoing?
We're like, we're fine.
We look at the board, chickenfillies ain't even wrote on the
menu sign.

SPEAKER_03 (01:16:55):
Not even on there.

SPEAKER_00 (01:16:56):
And he just says very nonchalantly, very
casually, very, I don't give adamn leave.
Oh, we ain't got them today.

SPEAKER_03 (01:17:08):
And that's it.
Like, no, like, uh, we hey, butwe got this, my man.
We we can offer you.
Sorry about that, man.
We got no.

SPEAKER_00 (01:17:15):

Or we go, and we he's he's like,Y'all have a good day.

SPEAKER_03 (01:17:21):
Yeah.
So, yeah And that that that'swhat really pissed me off.
No effort into making sure yourcustomers were happy.
Because you didn't know who wewere with.
You didn't know if we were somekind of uh food critic or
anything.
You know, like back in the daywe used to work at the mall, you
had the secret shoppers come in.
And they would, you know, justsee how you respond to certain

(01:17:42):
events.
So I was so, so turned off, man.
And it's to the point where Ireally don't want to try it
again, but I want her to try itbecause they were so good.
But honestly, myself, and Idon't even want to bash him, you
know, so I ain't even gonna saythe name of the place, but it
was, it's just turned me off,you know.
So I'm like.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:00):
Yep, it's black-owned.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:01):
It's black-owned, you know, and you always wanted
to give them the business andyou know, man, screw it.
Nah.
Gotta be better to do that.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:07):
That ain't the side eye part yet, though.
That's the first part of thestory.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:11):
That got me, that got me like this.
That was the squint eye.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:14):
He was already in his feelings.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:15):
Yeah, that's the squint eye.
So then we would decide to gofind somewhere else to do.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:18):
So we're gonna try to find somewhere to eat.
I was starving because we had itwas a late, yeah, we had a late
start.

SPEAKER_04 (01:18:25):
Yeah, and we worked out and everything.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:28):
And I think I only had a little bit of a couple of
things.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:31):
We bathed it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:32):
Okay, yeah.
Starving.
So I was like, I'll normallywe'll do this.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:36):
After the workout.

SPEAKER_00 (01:18:36):
Yeah, we'll normally do this whole, well, what about
this?
I was like, I my stomach can'teven do that.
Yeah, so I knew he had his heartset on the chicken filly.
So um we ended up at AmericanDeli.
And so we go to American Deli.
He orders his chicken filly withthe lemon pepper wings.

SPEAKER_03 (01:18:59):
Delicious lemon pepper wings was very good, even
though they were about the sizeof my pinky.
Yeah, very good.

SPEAKER_00 (01:19:04):
And um, I ordered something that uh I think a was
it gyro, gyro, gyro, whatever.

SPEAKER_02 (01:19:11):
I ordered Hyro.

SPEAKER_00 (01:19:12):
I ordered a chicken one.
And um, so we get our food.
Um, the Philly, I mean, it isfilled to pass capacity.

SPEAKER_06 (01:19:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (01:19:26):
I mean, it's just filled.
My gyro, giro, gyro, filled tocapacity.
Now, mine wasn't necessarilyfilled capacity with meat.
It just had a lot of all theother stuff.
And like about two sliced mediumonions on it.

(01:19:46):
Yeah.
So, anywho, I was hungry.
The fries were good.

SPEAKER_03 (01:19:50):
Yeah, fries were great.

SPEAKER_00 (01:19:51):
The fries were great.
And so I just was like, it iswhat it is, it's lunch.
We can try again at dinner.
Um, but I his chicken fillyactually from across the table,
yeah, looked good.

SPEAKER_03 (01:20:04):
It looked, it looked like American Daily normally.
I was like, they normallydeliver.

SPEAKER_00 (01:20:08):
I was thinking, I should have got that.

SPEAKER_03 (01:20:10):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (01:20:11):
Anyways, we're eating it.
So I'm down and I'm just eatingmy thing all of a sudden.
I heard somebody say, I justcan't do this.
I just I'm I'm just I wasfrustrated.
And then I hear the I just seehim close the thing, get up, and

(01:20:31):
go to the trash can and throw itaway.
I said, You throw your sandwichaway.
Just no, it's just too much.
They just made it a mess.
I'm just frustrated.
I'm just frustrated with it.
I'm just frustrated with it.
I'm done.
I'm good.
I said, Oh.

SPEAKER_03 (01:20:46):
My bread, for one, it was, you know, normally a
good Philly is like you can, youknow, pick it up and it's not
falling apart.
I couldn't pick it up.
Everything was falling apart.
Um, it was like it was it wasjust so messy, like, like they
cut to the last part of thebread.
Or it's like they just made asandwich out of it and just put
the bread on top of each otherlike that, which is not how you

(01:21:08):
do it, of course.
Um, because the other spot wrapsit up real good like you would
at a regular Philly spot, andthen you can open take the wrap
and you can still eat it.
But this one, it just it everytime I would pick it up,
everything just fall out.
So all I was getting was breadonions.
And I was so just I was like, ahYeah, he said that.

SPEAKER_04 (01:21:27):
Yeah.
Do what you did.

SPEAKER_03 (01:21:28):
And I was like, see, there we go.
So I was like, ah, I can't dothis, man.
I said, I'm frustrated.
And I just got my box and justclosed it up and I said, I'm
done, let's go.
And she was like, You just Isaid, yes, because it's
ridiculous.
We done paid this money, and I'mhungry, and I said, it's just
and I never get hangry, but it'sjust like the small things, man.

(01:21:48):
Just just just be, do your job,that's all.
Do your job.
I'm gonna try, I'm gonna tip youwell, I'm gonna do, I'm kind,
I'm polite, I let a lot ofthings slide, but it's like it
just was a sm a messy day.
You know what I'm saying?
And I didn't take it out onthem, I took it out on a
sandwich, and I just trashed it,and I was like, let's go.
So that's my side eye.

(01:22:09):
The poor customer service and apoor made, poorly made um
chicken filly from my spot,American Deli.
American Deli normally comesthrough for me in the clutch,
always.
But not that this time they justit fell short.
Oh, American Delhi.
Come on, American Dell.
I need y'all to do belly.
But anyway.

SPEAKER_00 (01:22:30):
That's his side eye.

SPEAKER_03 (01:22:31):
That's my side eye.
So what are you looking forwardto?
Um, or what are you gratefulfor?
I'm sorry.
So we can end on positiveinstead of side-eye and all
these.

SPEAKER_00 (01:22:40):
Gosh, I'm trying to not make sure I don't repeat
something I'm grateful for, butI guess it's okay.
But um I don't know.
I'm grateful to have, I guess,children, they get excited about
small things.
So, like, there are certainthings that the boys are into,

(01:23:01):
and for other people, they'd belike, they're excited about that
little thing.
But um, so I kind of feel likeperhaps maybe we kind of help
create it that they get excitedabout, you know, little small
things that they do and that maynot be exciting to other people,

(01:23:22):
but it's exciting for them.
Um so I'm glad that they canfind joy in the little things
because that's important.

SPEAKER_03 (01:23:31):
Very important.
Very important.
I'm always, you know, me like ifif anything somebody does for
me, I'm pleased.
Like you'd be like, you don'thave to take that if you don't
like it.
I'm like, I like the gesturewhich makes me like that even
more.
You know what I'm saying?
Um, so yeah, then that that isthat is big.
It's easier for us too whenthey're like that.

(01:23:53):
Because we don't stress about,oh my God, you know.
When we see some of these peoplethese parents who kids, you
know, they're not pleased withanything and they're breaking
their backs trying to give thesekids something that they
probably ain't even gonna likeafter the trend of the style is
out, you know.
Yeah, so we're thankful forthem.
Um I am thankful for, to beperfectly honest, man, um, even

(01:24:19):
though it's not where my visionhas it yet, but I'm thankful for
this podcast.
It's fun.
Um, it's our weekly moments ofcommunication.

SPEAKER_00 (01:24:31):
Um I thought about that too.

SPEAKER_03 (01:24:33):
It allows us to um and I listen to us, like you
said, you know, throughout theclips, I listen through to us um
um at you know on the thecommute, and so it gives us more
it gives me more time to witnessour union from a different

(01:24:55):
perspective, you know, uh tohear it as someone else may hear
it.
Um and even even if it's likeit's not, let's just say it's of
course, you know, I I want it todo great numbers.
I want it to do amazing things,which I know it will do, but
it's still a piece of legacythat's out there.

(01:25:17):
So like if the boys ever wantto, you know, this is let me let
you listen to your grandparentsor if they do have kids, or if
they don't, they have friends.
Hey, listen to my mom and dad.
This is who remember I wastelling you about how great they
were, you know, you know,whatever, once once once you
pass when you're about 98 andI'm still alive, you know, in um

(01:25:38):
Belize somewhere at 102.

SPEAKER_05 (01:25:41):

SPEAKER_00 (01:28:01):
Yeah, look, y'all won't hear about that?
This is my side eye.
It's time to go.
I'm changing this is my side eyeto him.

SPEAKER_03 (01:28:06):
But it's and to me too.
No, and I'm saying this is myside eye too, because I was I
was gonna say that, but Ithought about the chicken
filling.
I was gonna say that.
I was like, how could I everforget it?
Go please tell it.
Okay, it's ridiculous.

SPEAKER_00 (01:28:17):
It is ridiculous.

SPEAKER_03 (01:28:18):
So ridiculous.

SPEAKER_00 (01:28:19):
So, all of you all, maybe y'all need to also hear
this before it's too late,because it's too late for this
guy.
If you have an electric vehicle,you know, you guys don't have to
take them for oil changes andall the things.
Typically, you do your oilchanges, they do your tire
rotations at the same time.

(01:28:42):
Um, because this guy has neverhad an oil change.
He did not think, oh, I need toget the tires rotated.

SPEAKER_03 (01:28:52):
Not at all.
But I always make sure it's donein our cars and the Jeep and the
stuff like that.

SPEAKER_00 (01:28:58):
But also, I'm thinking to myself, now see, for
my car, my Volvo.

SPEAKER_03 (01:29:06):
But that's why we're thinking, because we know it's
it's I don't know.
Let me tell you.
Oh, go ahead.

SPEAKER_00 (01:29:11):
For my Volvo, I will get an email that says Oh I'm
getting no email.
Yeah, I get a thing that saystire rotation.
It's time for oil change.
It's time for like I get anemail.
Now you would think, with allthe technology in that vehicle,
that they too would say yourtires have not been rotated.

(01:29:35):
Or something should come up onthe as a on the screen to say
your tires have not beenrotated.
Um, or have you rotated or haveyou rotated your tires?
Like there's nothing that comesup from updates.

SPEAKER_03 (01:29:48):
Come up, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 (01:29:48):
You get an update new update on the update
computer software, but nothingin regards to like tire or or
whatever.
So this guy has not rotated thetires.
Um turning the lease for the caris is February, turning it in.

SPEAKER_05 (01:30:05):
Turning it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:30:06):
And he um tried to go and see if they would rotate
them.
They was like, child, please.
You can't rotate these things.
You need all four new tiresbecause they're worn so bad on
one side.
And so um, yeah, because hedidn't rotate them.
So for all you uh electricvehicle people, make sure you

(01:30:30):
get your tires rotated becauseyou're not going in for the
normal maintenance.
Uh you need to rotate yourtires.
So side eye for for this wholehusband who didn't think about
rotating.

SPEAKER_03 (01:30:42):
I found some cheap tires that'll get me to the to
the finish line.
Yeah.
So I'm gonna I'm gonna purchasesome cheap ones that'll get me
to the finish line.
Um and they had good reviews.
Okay.
