Speaker 1 (00:17):
Well, we're back.
Looks like you all chilled out,laid out over there.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Episode 38, if my memory is correct.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Only because I had to look it up.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
That's right.
That's our secret.
I always ask you, look it upreal quick and see what episode
this is.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
You're chilled out.
You're laid out.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Me and the dog Winston is making another
appearance as our guest.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
He'll let Winston sit with him, but I can't ever sit
with him.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Well, he jumps up in the chair, I jump up, and so
when you get home, I don't lethim get down.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I'd like stay up here , buddy.
Oh, he didn't like that.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
He's just a few weeks out from my haircut, but it's
grown really quick.
Hadn't been three weeks?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
yeah, it has has it.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's beenalmost a month maybe so time
gets away from you pollen,pollen is everywhere oh my
goodness by the way I've noticedI've been taking.
I had to wash my car off beforeI could ever go anywhere
yesterday.
Yeah, because I couldn't seeout the window, uh-oh.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Been taking Window windshield.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Is it window or windshield?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
What's that Windshield?
Do you call it a window or awindshield?
Your window is on the side,windshield's in the front.
My windows are on the side, Iwas looking.
Out your windshield, who knowswhere I live and windows.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
I just smash the gas and go.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
So I took a video when we left church just a
minute ago.
Did you look at it?
Of course you didn't.
Did you, did you not?
I sent you a video.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Oh no, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's like a 10-second video.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Let me watch it.
I'm watching it right now.
That's fine.
I'm going to tell everybody.
I'll put it on YouTube.
It's nothing, but it's where wehad a lot of rain.
It just looked like a pond.
We had a lot of rain last night.
In the ditch where it flows, itjust looked like you have spray
painted yellow in the backwater?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
It sure does.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
It looks nasty.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's nasty.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
It is nasty.
I was just bawling, and I justfound it interesting.
I watched it, didn't I?
Yeah, I just saw you.
No, so what I'm saying is Istarted taking Flonase.
I heard that it thanks forsniffing Speaking of Flonase.
Yeah you sniffing to the mind.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
All my babies have runny noses.
I have a hard time the kids innursery.
Yeah, every one of them haverunny nose.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
So I have a hard time breathing at night.
Deviated septum my nostrils arepretty much closed up.
I'm a mouth breather oh Lord, Ismack when I eat, and part of
that is because I can't breathethrough my nose.
Good, so he says so I try, IfI'm aware I will not smack, but
(02:40):
I don't ever think about it, soit's just happening until
somebody tells me either you orNicholas says you have got to
stop smacking.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That's the only time I know I'm doing it.
He's just as bad as you now,nicholas.
Yeah, he's getting there, is heyes?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
So my point being was I took this Flonase.
It's helped my niece out withher.
She's had sinus issues whatevermy understanding is.
She went to the doctor issues,whatever my understanding.
She went to the doctor.
She's got bad deviated septum,all this stuff.
Instead of surgery he suggestedflonase and he has like cleared
her up to where she can breathegood at night and everything.
So now word gets back to meabout it so I'm like, hey, I'll
(03:14):
try it.
Two squirts each nostril everyday for a week, then you go down
to one and I've been taking itfor probably three weeks now, no
difference, but I think it'smade a big difference.
On allergies, when you know, Ihad allergies really bad, um,
(03:35):
and now not as bad, but I stillhave them, but with all this
pollen being out in it all dayyesterday it's horrible uh, not
a sniffle or anything.
So I do think it's working onthe allergy side of it.
But that's for opening me up atnight and stuff to be able to
breathe out.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Maybe you should take it at night instead of in the
morning.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
You think that's what it is.
Is it like a fix?
Possibly you like bam, likewithin the hour.
Within the hours I think so,should I not show my dirty boots
?
Maybe I should.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Well, I mean, I got my dirty foot right here.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Well, you can probably see it when I'm like
this right.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
You can.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Can you?
Yes, so maybe I should just dothis right here, sorry.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
I mean, you can see my foot if you watch us on
YouTube.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, check us out on YouTube and TikTok.
Tiktok's grown a little bit.
Has it yeah, youtube isstagnant.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I got my fellows, my fellows.
No, I don't have no fellows.
Fellow followers my followersgo into the TikTok.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Are they?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Every time I if you ever get on when I'm on I always
tell them to go.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Okay, follow.
Yeah, if we can start doing alive, that'd be great, but I did
put a video out there wherewe're talking about the
astronauts that were stranded inspace when they came down and
did the splash down people lovethat well, I had a bunch of
comments about you know whetherit's stupid for me thinking that
, or some people saying what'syour point and others saying I
(04:59):
agree it looks totally fake.
But to the person that saidwhat's my point, I explained my
point.
I said that I believe thatastronauts went up in space.
I believe we went up there andgot them, I believe they landed
in the water and all that wastrue, my point was being that it
looked fake.
That was my point.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So you just had to get that off your chest yeah,
but anyway, so we've had.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
so we've had a lot of people like that pretty good
bit, like 3 000, that,000.
That's fine.
Other people say like Stop.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
What You're being noisy.
Speaker 2 (05:28):

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yes, you are.
Speaker 2 (05:30):

He wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Couldn't record yesterday because you weren't
dialed up and I worked outsideall day.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Don't blame it on me.
I wanted to record Friday.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Friday I couldn't.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Why.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
For some reason I couldn't Thursday, I could have
Thursday, I couldn't Wednesday,I could have Tuesday.
But you know, when you recordon Tuesday, it seems like you
release on Monday and thenTuesday you go ahead and record.
No, you're like I got all weekto record, so you don't do it on
Tuesday, wednesday, Thursday.
Friday.
So tell me what's your news,what you've got going on.
I had several things I want totalk about, but you don't want
me to talk about this stuff.
You don't want me to talk aboutanything that's in the news.
(06:17):
I'm not going to try and everget political, which you know.

go political.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
No, no no, no, no.
You asked me what Doge was.
I wouldn't even get into this,I'm just telling you.
But anyway, and then there's acave that legit.
There's a cave that thegovernment has all this
paperwork in for all the people,like when you try and retire
and all this kind of, and it iscrazy but I don't get into all
that.
But no, what I'd like to talkabout is topics like when things
(07:08):
happen like every day, justweird stuff.
I see in the news article and Iwant to bring it up, but you're
like, I don't want to do stufflike that because you do it on
the other one the other podcast.
Well, but it won't be the samestuff, maybe sometimes.
Hey, maybe we do it here beforeI do it on the other podcast.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
You talk about there.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I know.
But I like certain topics and Iwant to bring up certain things
too that I know.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I didn't think that you didn't know about Doge.
Maybe you should just do one byyourself one day.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
A podcast by myself.
No, just do an episode on hereby yourself.
I was going to say you'rekicking me off our podcast.
That's what it sounded like.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
No, you should just do one on here.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Do an episode by myself.
Just me, the dog and the camera.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I'll be the camera guy Woman.
I'll be the camera woman.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I'll zoom in and out, you'll move.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
I'll move back and forth.
You'll be professional BecauseI'm professional.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
So I want two cameras .
Can we get two cameras?
And then you've got to get aswitcher that hooks up to that
to do audio.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I would rather our video be a little bit closer
than it is.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
What do you mean?
Get up and move it right now.
Why don't you talk to thepeople and then I'll move the
camera?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
closer how about no.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Do you want to close up?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
No.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
If we get a close-up, we're going to have to put
these chairs closer together andnot have them angled.
They'll be like that and we'llbe facing forward.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
That would be awkward .
Speaker 1 (08:34):
To face forward.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
We're angled at each other so I can look at, but if
we're sitting side, by side.
I've just been watchingpeople's and they just go closer
up than let's like we're justgonna say you make it sound like
we need like a love seat and wejust sit on a love seat facing
the cameras.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It's only, it's kind of like one of these, these
reality shows where we just needto hire somebody to be our
production team and they justhold the camera and video well,
I've tried to pay nicholas to dothis kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
He don't want anything to do with it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
He ain't going to do squat, no matter what.

A fiddle fig leaf.
That looks pretty good.
You had a.
We had a real fiddle fig leaf.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
But it died because a manna can't keep any plant or
tree shrub anything A succulent.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
You can't kill a succulent.
Speaker 2 (09:35):

It's those like little plants,like the little, just like a few
years ago we went to not we, asin me, and you, we, as in the
women's group went to the plantplace on Airport Road.
Whatever the name of it'scalled Plantique.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
And made the little bowls and it had several
different plants in it Succulentyou can't kill a succulent.
I don't remember anything.
The little bowls, in it hadseveral different plants in it,
succulent you can't kill asucculent.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't remember anything.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I can't kill a succulent.
I don't mean to, but I just did, and those other plants that
they say you can't kill, likeyou get from funerals.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yeah, I think that's what most of our plants have
come from.
Is funerals, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:23):

I'm like, no, we ain't, I can'tdo it.
I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
You think you could keep a cactus alive?
Surely you could keep a cactus.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Well, once in a blue moon it died, I don't know, I
don't know either, but that poorfiddle fig, I wanted that thing
so bad.
I think we just don't have agood place in our house to get a
little bit of light, becauseyou need a little bit of light,
you don't need a lot, and Iwanted it over in this one
certain corner and we'd have tomove it to the light every once
(11:07):
in a while.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Well, it's got.
You know these big old.
Well, you see the fake leaveson it, but they're huge leaves.
They have huge leaves and theyjust drop off.
Yeah, and they start turningWell, they drop off, and then
some of them start turning brown, and then I'm trying to decide
is this what it does?
Is this one of those things.
Because I didn't know what afiddle fig tree.
(11:29):
I've never known one before.
This was a few years ago.
And then I found out that no,that's not what they're supposed
to do, and it died.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
It died.
You tried to bring it back.
It was too late Too late.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, if I'd have realized what was happening,
instead of me just thinking, hey, it's shedding its leaves for
this time of year.
If I'd have took action then.

but that's a lot.
It was a lot like last week.
Jody said you hadn't been live,are you not gonna do it?

almost burned out of it a littlebit.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
So when you say a live, what do you mean?
So you're going on what?
Speaker 1 (16:52):

I show you how to use press onnails and save money so you're
one of those that save moneylook our friend let me hold on,

Speaker 2 (17:10):
So you're talking about, you have it to where it's
showing like your nails it'scalled a flat lay you're doing a
flat lay I do a flat lay, soyou're like the camera's looking
at your nails and you're justdoing okay.
Speaker 1 (17:21):

can do them face to face, butmost people want to see what
you're doing.
So, um, my friend got her okay,so it's been spring break
around here.
Um, we'll go back to costa rica.
I gotta tell this.
My friend got her daughter'snails done acrylic nailsrylic
(17:43):
nails.
Ladies will know what I'mtalking about.
$90.
You know how much mine were $14.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
$14.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
These are $18.
$18.
These are $18.
$90.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
How long do they last ?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
though Probably not long.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
I don't know what, probably not long is.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Maybe a week.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Really.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It depends on how rough she is on them.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
So what does that mean?
So you go to a nail place andthey put and it's acrylic nails,
that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They put on Yep.
They put acrylic on your nails.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Is that special rate for something special, or is
that the regular?
Surely it's not that much tohave nails put on, is it?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah, that's why I'm trying to get women to change,
Because I can get a two-weekwear out of an $18 pair and
they're reusable.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
How many times can you reuse a pair of nails?
A couple, three?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Yeah, well, it depends on.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Wear and tear.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, do I reuse them ?
No, because I got so many.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So what do you do?
You throw them away after youwear them one time?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
No, I can't throw them away.
I give them to my friends.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
So you're swapping nails?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I'm about to do a big old sale.
Pre-worn nails you're giving toNot necessarily they're
different sizes and the ladiesthat I give them to their nails
are bigger than mine.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
So they'll use the ones that.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I didn't use most of the time.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
How do you not use nails?
I mean when I buy.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
There's 30 nails in a box.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Okay, so I didn't know.
I thought there was 10, sinceyou have 10 finger, nails?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Well, no, because everybody's nails aren't the
same.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
So there's different sizes.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
So there different sizes?
Yes, okay, yeah, so there'sthree different sizes per nail,
like small medium.
You said 30.
I know because there's halfsizes in there, because some
fingers you might need a halfsize whatever happened to just
painting the nails you have onyour hands.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Can you, can I not?
Speaker 1 (19:30):
like grow these nails out and then it flakes.
It takes forever to.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Is fingernail polish a thing of the past?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
For me it is because it takes too long.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
So what do they do when you go to a nail place?
Is it like Most?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
of them get dip powder and stuff like that, so
that dries like that when you'reputting it under.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I don't have a clue what I'm just saying.
Is it?
The fake nails like blah andthey paint the nails when they
put them on.
Is that what they?
Speaker 1 (19:57):
do yeah, yeah, they put like tips on them.
So anyway, I'm going to maybego to Costa Rica if the passport
gets back.
I guess I didn't believe inmyself, so I didn't get my
passport early.
They got to have the passportback because they got to have
the number off of it.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
for their part, Red Aspen, red Aspen, yeah Right.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
So part red aspen, red aspen, yeah right, so so
you're saying how long to get apassport back.
I expedited it so he said thatwas on on the very front end of
four weeks.
And did you know that yourpassport don't just go to one
central place like it goes toone place, but but then the one
place which I think might beAtlanta, might be like the place
, then that place sends it toother places to fix it, then
(20:45):
they send it back and that placesends it back out.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
To fix it.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
To like whatever they do.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Put it in the system or whatever.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
I don't know what they do, and then they send it
back.
I don't know what they do, andthen they send it back.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
But he said yeah, it's not.
He said there's no tellingwhere it'll end up, because I'm
like is there a number I cancall to make sure they get it?
Is there something?
I?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
can do?
I don't think there's nothingthat you can do, because it's
the government for the most part.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So you're just waiting.
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
That's why, if you're waiting to the last minute,
you're taking a big-time chance.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I should not have waited to the last minute, but—.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
I think mine's out of date.
It's 10 years and you said theother day that— it's been 10
years since I've been.
It's been 10 years.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
so I thought that too .
But you know what else we'vegot to do this year?
No clue.
The star, if we're going to flyanywhere.
The star.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
You got to have a star on your license.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Oh, what am I To fly.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
So if I don't, I can't fly.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
So just out of the blue something happens.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
No, this has been going on.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Nope.
So out of the blue, I have tofly somewhere for whatever
emergency.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I can't.
I mean in the United States.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
You have to have one for the United States.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
You have to have a star.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Is that like an extra payment?
Probably.
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We'll talk about it next time.
We'll have that discussion nexttime.
I don't know.
I have to look it up.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Why don't you know?
You're talking about having tohave a star, but you don't know
anything about it.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
So when I had to look it up.
Why don't you know You'retalking about?
We're having to have a star,but you don't know anything
about it.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Why so, when I go to Arizona, get in your mic oh.
When I go to Arizona.
See if you wear headphones,you'd know.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
When I go to Arizona, is it called domestic?
When you fly out of the UnitedStates, what's it called when
you just fly inside?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Domestic is inside.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Domestic is inside, okay, so you can talk.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I thought you were going to talk while you're
looking at that.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Well, I can't talk in type too, All right.
Why do you have to have thestar on your driver's license?
It indicates a real ID, a realID compliance license license
meeting federal securitystandards for identification and
is required for boardingcommercial aircrafts and
(23:06):
assessing certain federalfacilities.
So you have to have it.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
So I still don't understand understand.
So if I'm if I'm getting adriver's license, that's an
official document for me, butit's not to vote, to do all
these things, to do whatever.
So why are you notautomatically putting a star on?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
if your driver's license or state id has a star
in the upper right hand corner,it's already a real id compliant
.
Nothing more is needed do I?
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I have a star.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No, you don't, Because they just started it a
few years ago and then year 2025is when it's going to be
mandatory to have it.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
What I'm saying is Can?
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I fly without a star ID.
Beginning May, the 7th of 2025,every air traveler 18 years of
age and older will need a realID, compliant driver's license,
state issue enhanced driver'slicense or another acceptable
form of ID to fly within theUnited States.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
So my driver's license is not good enough.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
You gotta have that star on.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But I can use another form.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What is that?
This makes no sense can Itravel in the us without my star
?
If you are travelingdomestically, you will only need
one valid form ofidentification either your real
id, which is the star, oranother acceptable alternative
(24:37):
such as, but what I'm saying isI know what you're saying, but
I'm just telling you I don'tthink you do.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
My point is being am I having to do an extra step to
get a star on?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
my yes.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
So when I go my driver's license is expired,
I've got to go get it filled out.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Is it not automatic?
Nope, are you sure Nope?
Is it not automatic?
Nope.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Nope, it wasn't last time when I got mine.
Nicholas had to get his.
Did he have to redo his?
Speaker 2 (25:06):
He'd just been 16, though, so this would have been
a few years ago.
Yeah, it would have been fouryears ago.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Yeah, so if it's just now, starting.
No, it's been going, it's justbeen mandatory.
This year is when you've had tohave you not heard about this
no have you not heard about this?
I?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
don't travel, so maybe that's why I tone it out.
Tune it out.
Do you tune it?
Do you tune it out or tone itout?
I do both I tune it out andtone it out so I didn't look.
If they told me sorry, Jody,you can't get on this airplane,
you don't have a star on yourdriver's license.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
I'd be like you got your wallet in your I was going
to say your purse.
You don't have a purse?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
No, my purse is in the truck.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
You don't have it.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
No, I just took it out before I came in here.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
I was going to wait to do mine because at our
location where you get yourlicense and stuff, you got to go
to a different building to dothe star.
You got to go over to thebasement of the courthouse, not
the little annex where we justgo and renew our license I'm
gonna have to research this onmy own, because I don't, I still
don't understand you just gottahave it, I can go get a
(26:15):
driver's license.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
That is good for anything.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Put it on there now, but surely it is?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I don't see you ask.
Because it's a valid a driver'slicense.
It's valid meaning as long asthere's not the expiration date,
you're still in when it's good,it's valid.
But you're telling me that if Iuse my valid driver's license
to get on a plane, I can't Ifyou don't have that star on it.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
You can't Because it's not valid because I don't
have a star.
Yes.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
But it's valid for anything else in my life.
I want to do with it.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Nope, I don't know.
I got him riled up now.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I mean, if this is true, it's bureaucracy.
Yes, that word.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
I feel you.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I can't even say it Bureaucracy.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, I said it, so anyway.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Bureaucratic crap is what it is.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
So you research the star and you tell us more next
week.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
I wish you gave me a heads up.
I'd have had it ready for thistime.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I really didn't think about it until a while ago.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
I feel like there's a star on my driver's license.
I really do.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
I'm going to need you to pause and go get it Because
you hadn't had.
No, because I renewed yoursonline the last time it needed.
Mine renews next year.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Can you talk for two minutes while I go around and
get it?
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Sure, without pausing , can we talk about nails?
You talk about nails.
I'm going to talk about goingto Costa Rica without Jody.
I'm really nervous.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And you do that.
You tell everybody why you'renervous, and then let's see if—
I need you to run.
Oh, I'm going to walk reallyfast.
I need you to run.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Okay, go, I'm timing you Two minutes.
Go, we're going to costa rica.
(28:09):
I'm excited but I'm verynervous.
But I think my um, I think Iwill fly to atlanta and my uh
director will be in atlanta, sohopefully we will be on the same
plane, flying from Atlanta to.
There's two airports at CostaRica and I almost chose the
wrong one.
I can't remember now what it,which one it is, but anyway.
(28:34):
So yeah, all because of nails,I am getting to go to Costa Rica
.
It is LIR Airport I can't saythat Liberia, not the other one.
They told us not to do theother one, so they have plans
(28:55):
for us.
We can do excursions, we can.
I don't know if you've been toCosta Rica.
Tell me about it.
Tell me some things.
I didn't get the upgrade to thepool side.
I am going to be on the gardenside, but that's okay.
At least I made it.
Well, hopefully I'll make it ifI get my passport.
(29:16):
If I don't get my passport, I'mnot booking a flight yet,
because if I don't get mypassport, there's no sense in
having a flight.
So that was fast.
What are you having to pay for?
Huh?
Speaker 2 (29:27):
If you had a free trip, what are you?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
paying for you.
Just pay for your flight,everything else is free.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
All right, jody's going to pull out his.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Oh, and by the way, if you're a guy out there and
you're listening, and if you'rea guy, if you're watching right
here, the best thing for awallet is see, I've got the
little he loves these.
It's the little insert.
Is this the insert part?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
No, I think I actually bought that one.
All right, you bought this likethis, but the first time you
knew about it, it was an insertin a wallet, in a wallet I had
bought you.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
yeah, like it wasn't a trifold, it was a bifold and
it had that, it had this piecethat pulls out and it keeps your
credit cards and everything.
Well, now I saw I used that toa war.
It was an auburn yeah uh wallet.
So you bought me this one, andit holds all your credit cards
on one side.
Well, you've seen them.
Now to where you can push alittle button and it's good, and
then?
(30:16):
some, some of our metal.
I don't think I don't evercarry a wallet.
It's always in my side door.
I don't.
So.
I heard a long time ago theysaid a lot of men's back issues
is because their wallet being sothick and they're driving it
affects their back.
Well, so I used to have a thickwallet but I've gone to this.
(30:38):
But I never wear a wallet whileI'm driving or it's never in my
back pocket.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
It's always in the side door.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
So anyway that's what I'm saying and, by the way, I
forgot in this picture I've gotlong hair.
I've just seen that, so I knowyours don't have the star on
there, so, for anybody thatdoesn't know, I used to have
long hair for a short period ofmy life Three years.
How long did it take to grow itout?
Three years.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
It took a little minute.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah, I'll never do it again, though.
All right, all right.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Do you need me to look at it for you?
Speaker 2 (31:05):
I can see it way, way down here.
There's a heart on it, so Iguess that's a, that's a donor
way out there.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Oh my goodness, so you're a donor, it's gonna be in
the right right top corner, Ithink it said I don't have it.
I didn't think you did.
When do you expire?
Speaker 2 (31:25):
oh, that's that fine print on there.
Uh, I've got till 27 okay.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So if you're gonna fly before that, you've got to
go get a new one are these goodfor two years?
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I mean five years, five years.
Why didn't I say two years?
It's been a while since I'vebeen.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Mine expires next year.
Is it three years?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No, no, because that's two years.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
He's had to already get one.
So is it four years?
Because I'm pretty sure I don'tknow, or he has, or Nicholas
has to get one this year.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
I don't know.
I don't know.
We might better check his andmake sure he's not out.
I don't understand the wholelicense thing.
Getting one sure Photo ID sure,paying for it every four or
five years, that's a crock.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
What are we paying for?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
It's the same thing with your license plate, your
tags.
Did you?
Speaker 1 (32:16):
know, with a passport getting a picture, you had to
pay extra to get a picture.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
And you got to have a picture.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And you got to have the picture on it.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
It's an added cost.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
So if I would have but I could have took my own and
took it to him.
But there was all thesespecifics you had to do and I'm
like forget that.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
They can just take it .
Speaker 1 (32:35):
And he says don't smile.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Yeah, you're not supposed to smile, don't smile
real big, but, buddy, my eyesstood out.
Is that what he said?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, he gave me one of the pictures I need to give
it to you.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
You got big eyes.
I do have big eyes, but theywere blue.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
The blue stood out like I got to show it to you.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
It is really blue.
Your eyes don't stand out to meanymore.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Because you're used to it?
Maybe because I'm used to it.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Probably I've been around you for all these long
years.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Excuse me.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
But I do remember you used to have big eyes.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I used to have big eyes.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah, I don't know if you do anymore, because I don't
recognize it Because you don'trealize?
Yeah, Realize.
So you recognize, realize andwhat I say, man to go.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
This is just a hodgepodge episode, by the way.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
That's fine, I like it.
I like to just go home.
Jody does not.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Jody wants structure, he wants to talk politics.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
No.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I still hadn't heard that he's proud of me for
earning this trip.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
How many times do I have to say I just didn't say it
on camera.
I'm proud of you.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
No, that's sarcastic.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
I am proud of you.
I told you that that's a bigdeal for you to win something.
I just think you screwed up nothaving a passport and now
you're going to miss out on thefree trip.
Shut up, that's all I'm saying.
Shut up.
And I'm not going.
Speaker 1 (33:51):

If I earn it, I don't take a weekend off.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
You think I'm gonna take several days like a
vacation to another state, orit'll make it without you maybe
anyway, but no, I like structureon the episode.

means nothing, they just got sayextra hey, if you want to pay a
little extra.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It might make feel good yeah, that just means he'll
put it in the mailbox one dayearlier Instead of waiting until
tomorrow to let it go out inthe mail.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Stop, pardon that Stop.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
He's putting it out there this evening.
That's all.
That meant $30.
And he got 20 of it.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Oh, is that right yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Was it cash?
Did he say cash?
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I bought a money order because he said a money
order would go faster.
I said even faster than apaying with the debit card.
Well, I paid with the for themoney order with the debit card,
but he had to send the moneyorder with the passport.
So if I'd have paid with adebit card, how does he send the
money?
Speaker 2 (37:05):
he got you well, I did it, did you did you make the
money order out to just acertain person?
Speaker 1 (37:12):
No, I made it out to whatever place he said yeah,
here's my name.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Make the money order out to this and I'll make sure
it gets there.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Yeah, so he got it.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
How much is a total amount?
How much is a passport?
Speaker 1 (37:26):
What did I pay Before ?
Speaker 2 (37:28):
the $30.
Let's just say what's the baseprice $190.
$190 for a pass Wow.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
I did not know that it's for 10 years.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Yeah, but I used mine twice.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
You got one.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
I know.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
I really don't remember paying that for years.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Well, that was 10 years ago, so it was a little
bit cheaper.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, that wouldn't go up.
You think that goes up?
Speaker 2 (37:53):
Who knows?
Yes, I do.
Price of eggs went way up.
Why wasn't a passport?
Speaker 1 (37:59):
I don't know.
I was trying to rack my brain.
I don't even remember gettingyours I was not expecting, I was
thinking $70.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
I was thinking $50, maybe $70.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
Yeah, 70.
Speaker 2 (38:11):
Yeah, I was thinking 50, maybe 70.
Yeah, hmm, that hurt.
I'm speechless now.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Uh-oh, I'm in trouble when we get off now.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Jody's done, I'm done .
I got nothing else to say.
That's why I can't take offwork, because I'm having to pay
for stinking passports.
That's right.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
But it's good for 10 years, so I won't need one when
I win this trip every year.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
And I haven't needed mine in nine years.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Well, that's your problem.
You ain't going back toHonduras.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
I didn't think of where it was All right, you got
anything else.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
No.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
You done talking about your trip.
I guess we got stuck on.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
No, you talk about it , I was just, no, I'm good, got
stuck on this passport.
I know I can't get away from it.
You're mad at me now, so you'reready to get off and holler at
me what do you think, Winston?
See, he didn't deny it.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
What do?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
you.
He said, leave me alone Allright, I got pizza to eat.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
No, you said you was going to talk about that one
thing.
What?
The topic 20-year-old?
Oh it's too.
We're already like how far intothis thing.
We're like 40 minutes in, Ican't talk, I don't even have
all the paperwork.
No, there was this guy thatI'll just tell you a little
quick about it, the paperwork.
No, there was this guy thatI'll just tell you a little
quick about it, the highlightshe was like 13 years old when he
(39:38):
got basically locked in hishouse by his father and
stepmother and he's locked upfor 20 years, had very little he
was very isolated of, of course, but he had very little outside
his room.
Time, put it that way, he hadchores and all that stuff and
they barely fed him.
It was just sandwiches and liketwo cups of water a day and he
(40:03):
ended up making a fire, I guesshe was what did he get to make a
fire with?
oh, it was hand sanitizer.
The alcohol out of handsanitizer.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (40:14):
And something else.
Did you hear that?
Yes, I did.
My stomach just made thecraziest noise.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
I hope you can hear it.
I hope that didn't come throughbecause that was bad.
I hope you can hear it on themicrophones.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
So he didn't have hardly anything to eat, he said.
Sometimes he'd actually evendrink out of the commode.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
Just crazy stuff like that, so he had a bathroom in
his room, though.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Well, I guess he had access to it, but as he got
older, more padlocks and stuffgot put on the door because he
was getting older.
But that's another reason whythey started feeding them less
and less, because he's I thinkhe's he was at least 30, maybe
32, I can't remember the articlenow he did this fire.
(41:01):
It was like his last resort.
You gotta think about this.
If you're locked in your houseand you're at like year three
and you know how bad it is,you're not realizing hey, I've
got almost 20 more years of thisto go Right.
Yeah, you're thinking any dayI'm getting out of this.
So, anyway.
So he got attention from thefire.
That's what saved him.
Firefighters came in police,all this stuff, and they found
(41:25):
out his story.
Anyway, he weighs.
We're talking a 30-year-old.
He weighed 68 pounds 68 poundswhen they got to him.
So I don't know.
You know him being malnutritionand all that over the years.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
What was the reasoning?
I don't know.
Why did they do?
Speaker 2 (41:43):
this.
His father passed away lastyear.
I thought it was just a stepmomand before I found that I was
thinking I bet the dad's buriedin the backyard apparently,
because I'm thinking the stepmomwas the main role player in
this, but it was the father andthe stepmother, so the dad had
just as big a thing.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
I don't even know why they wanted to do that.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Well, if I had the article, I could have read the
whole thing to you.
Oh yeah, let's not do that yeah, well, she's not gonna, you
know, admit to any of it becauseshe's got a lawyer, all that
kind of stuff, but anyway.
So I just thought that wasinteresting and you find you
hear these things, you'rethinking there's no way.
You know, people do this toother people and sure enough.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
I mean, you think, why couldn't he get out as he
got older?
Speaker 2 (42:26):
but he had no strength if he wasn't eating
stuff I guess they keep you towhere you're not getting many
calories, you're not gaining anyweight.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
And you're not using muscles.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
And you're probably being just threatened.
Well, I mean, if they threatenyou, you're like well, if you
think it's bad now, if you tryand escape, I can make it ten
times worse.
I know that's horrible when youdon't have have any energy,
it's hard to get motivated totry and escape or do anything to
get out right.
I feel you yeah all that so Imean, it's not like you can get
(42:58):
a burst of energy and kick downthe door or overtake your
stepmother, whatever causeyou're.
You know she's two or threetimes your size and she's caused
it that's caused it.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
That's horrible, it is.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
I hadn't heard anything else about it since
they got him but, what is theprotocol in trying to get
somebody back to health?
That weighs one-third of whattheir average weight should be.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
And you'd think it probably stunned his growth.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
You know like he's probably not top-line.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
I think all of his teeth were rotted out, things
like that, because you know hehadn't had any kind of care
whatsoever.
I mean what do you do?
But there's nothing he can do.
He's just going with the flow.
So I think he was allowed likeoutside.
No family member or anythinglike, anything like well, there
was the day there was like anuncle that says that he just
knows that one year that he camearound at christmas every year
(43:55):
and then, like one year, youknow, the kid wasn't there and
ever since that year he justnever was seen.
Just like school, he stoppedgoing to school.
Yeah, there's a few times thatthe the police got called for
like a wellness check for andall this kind of stuff and
everything.
Just how it just gets kickedout of the rug, you know.
(44:15):
And then I found out too, ifit's, I think if they get called
to the house and if it wasproven, there's nothing there,
like after five years, theydestroy the records of any kind
of call to the house, so there'sno records at all.
So I don't know, it's just oneof those things that you know.
It just happened.
(44:35):
It's horrible.
How many other people are likethat right now?
Speaker 1 (44:40):
All right, is that all you got?
Speaker 2 (44:41):
That's all I got.
Speaker 1 (44:42):
I think you're ready for pizza.
Speaker 2 (44:44):
I am.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
Maybe we won't hear that noise again.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Winston, you ready for pizza?
Let's go.
Get pizza, let's go.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
Really he's ready.
See, he's ready, let's go get abone.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
You want to get a bone?
Let's go get a bone, and he'sgone.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Now you got to give him a bone.

Bye, adios.
Well, we're back.
Looks like you all chilled out,laid out over there.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Episode 38, if my memory is correct.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Only because I had to look it up.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
That's right.
That's our secret.
I always ask you, look it upreal quick and see what episode
this is.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
You're chilled out.
You're laid out.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Me and the dog Winston is making another
appearance as our guest.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
He'll let Winston sit with him, but I can't ever sit
with him.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Well, he jumps up in the chair, I jump up, and so
when you get home, I don't lethim get down.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I'd like stay up here , buddy.
Oh, he didn't like that.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
He's just a few weeks out from my haircut, but it's
grown really quick.
Hadn't been three weeks?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
yeah, it has has it.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's beenalmost a month maybe so time
gets away from you pollen,pollen is everywhere oh my
goodness by the way I've noticedI've been taking.
I had to wash my car off beforeI could ever go anywhere
yesterday.
Yeah, because I couldn't seeout the window, uh-oh.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Been taking Window windshield.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Is it window or windshield?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
What's that Windshield?
Do you call it a window or awindshield?
Your window is on the side,windshield's in the front.
My windows are on the side, Iwas looking.
Out your windshield, who knowswhere I live and windows.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
I just smash the gas and go.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
So I took a video when we left church just a
minute ago.
Did you look at it?
Of course you didn't.
Did you, did you not?
I sent you a video.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Oh no, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's like a 10-second video.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Let me watch it.
I'm watching it right now.
That's fine.
I'm going to tell everybody.
I'll put it on YouTube.
It's nothing, but it's where wehad a lot of rain.
It just looked like a pond.
We had a lot of rain last night.
In the ditch where it flows, itjust looked like you have spray
painted yellow in the backwater?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
It sure does.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
It looks nasty.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's nasty.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
It is nasty.
I was just bawling, and I justfound it interesting.
I watched it, didn't I?
Yeah, I just saw you.
No, so what I'm saying is Istarted taking Flonase.
I heard that it thanks forsniffing Speaking of Flonase.
Yeah you sniffing to the mind.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
All my babies have runny noses.
I have a hard time the kids innursery.
Yeah, every one of them haverunny nose.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
So I have a hard time breathing at night.
Deviated septum my nostrils arepretty much closed up.
I'm a mouth breather oh Lord, Ismack when I eat, and part of
that is because I can't breathethrough my nose.
Good, so he says so I try, IfI'm aware I will not smack, but
(02:40):
I don't ever think about it, soit's just happening until
somebody tells me either you orNicholas says you have got to
stop smacking.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That's the only time I know I'm doing it.
He's just as bad as you now,nicholas.
Yeah, he's getting there, is heyes?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
So my point being was I took this Flonase.
It's helped my niece out withher.
She's had sinus issues whatevermy understanding is.
She went to the doctor issues,whatever my understanding.
She went to the doctor.
She's got bad deviated septum,all this stuff.
Instead of surgery he suggestedflonase and he has like cleared
her up to where she can breathegood at night and everything.
So now word gets back to meabout it so I'm like, hey, I'll
(03:14):
try it.
Two squirts each nostril everyday for a week, then you go down
to one and I've been taking itfor probably three weeks now, no
difference, but I think it'smade a big difference.
On allergies, when you know, Ihad allergies really bad, um,
(03:35):
and now not as bad, but I stillhave them, but with all this
pollen being out in it all dayyesterday it's horrible uh, not
a sniffle or anything.
So I do think it's working onthe allergy side of it.
But that's for opening me up atnight and stuff to be able to
breathe out.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Maybe you should take it at night instead of in the
morning.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
You think that's what it is.
Is it like a fix?
Possibly you like bam, likewithin the hour.
Within the hours I think so,should I not show my dirty boots
?
Maybe I should.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Well, I mean, I got my dirty foot right here.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Well, you can probably see it when I'm like
this right.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
You can.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Can you?
Yes, so maybe I should just dothis right here, sorry.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
I mean, you can see my foot if you watch us on
YouTube.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, check us out on YouTube and TikTok.
Tiktok's grown a little bit.
Has it yeah, youtube isstagnant.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I got my fellows, my fellows.
No, I don't have no fellows.
Fellow followers my followersgo into the TikTok.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Are they?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Every time I if you ever get on when I'm on I always
tell them to go.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Okay, follow.
Yeah, if we can start doing alive, that'd be great, but I did
put a video out there wherewe're talking about the
astronauts that were stranded inspace when they came down and
did the splash down people lovethat well, I had a bunch of
comments about you know whetherit's stupid for me thinking that
, or some people saying what'syour point and others saying I
(04:59):
agree it looks totally fake.
But to the person that saidwhat's my point, I explained my
point.
I said that I believe thatastronauts went up in space.
I believe we went up there andgot them, I believe they landed
in the water and all that wastrue, my point was being that it
looked fake.
That was my point.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So you just had to get that off your chest yeah,
but anyway, so we've had.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
so we've had a lot of people like that pretty good
bit, like 3 000, that,000.
That's fine.
Other people say like Stop.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
What You're being noisy.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Am I.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yes, you are.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I'm fidgety.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
You are very fidgety, I am fidgety.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I got pizza waiting.
I'm about to knock you out.
Pizza is waiting on me.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
We just got out of church Once again earlier.
He wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Couldn't record yesterday because you weren't
dialed up and I worked outsideall day.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Don't blame it on me.
I wanted to record Friday.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Friday I couldn't.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Why.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
For some reason I couldn't Thursday, I could have
Thursday, I couldn't Wednesday,I could have Tuesday.
But you know, when you recordon Tuesday, it seems like you
release on Monday and thenTuesday you go ahead and record.
No, you're like I got all weekto record, so you don't do it on
Tuesday, wednesday, Thursday.
Friday.
So tell me what's your news,what you've got going on.
I had several things I want totalk about, but you don't want
me to talk about this stuff.
You don't want me to talk aboutanything that's in the news.
(06:17):
I'm not going to try and everget political, which you know.
Some things we could talk aboutDoge.

But anyway, and then there's acave that legit.
There's a cave that thegovernment has all this
paperwork in for all the people,like when you try and retire

that.
But no, what I'd like to talkabout is topics like when things

Can we get two cameras?
And then you've got to get aswitcher that hooks up to that
to do audio.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I would rather our video be a little bit closer
than it is.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
What do you mean?
Get up and move it right now.
Why don't you talk to thepeople and then I'll move the
camera?
Speaker 1 (08:20):
closer how about no.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Do you want to close up?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
No.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
If we get a close-up, we're going to have to put
these chairs closer together andnot have them angled.
They'll be like that and we'llbe facing forward.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
That would be awkward .
Speaker 1 (08:34):
To face forward.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
We're angled at each other so I can look at, but if
we're sitting side, by side.
I've just been watchingpeople's and they just go closer
up than let's like we're justgonna say you make it sound like
we need like a love seat and wejust sit on a love seat facing
the cameras.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It's only, it's kind of like one of these, these
reality shows where we just needto hire somebody to be our
production team and they justhold the camera and video well,
I've tried to pay nicholas to dothis kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
He don't want anything to do with it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
He ain't going to do squat, no matter what.
Squat, no matter what.
You didn't turn your blue lighton behind you.
I know what kind of tree isthat.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I don't know A shrub.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
That is not a shrub.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I don't know what you call it.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
You've told me, but I don't know what it's called.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
A fiddle fig leaf.
That looks pretty good.
You had a.
We had a real fiddle fig leaf.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
But it died because a manna can't keep any plant or
tree shrub anything A succulent.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
You can't kill a succulent.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
What was that?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
I can.
It's those like little plants,like the little, just like a few
years ago we went to not we, asin me, and you, we, as in the
women's group went to the plantplace on Airport Road.
Whatever the name of it'scalled Plantique.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
And made the little bowls and it had several
different plants in it Succulentyou can't kill a succulent.
I don't remember anything.
The little bowls, in it hadseveral different plants in it,
succulent you can't kill asucculent.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't remember anything.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I can't kill a succulent.
I don't mean to, but I just did, and those other plants that
they say you can't kill, likeyou get from funerals.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yeah, I think that's what most of our plants have
come from.
Is funerals, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I did, I killed it.
Well, most of our plants havecome from is funerals.
Yeah, I did, I killed it.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Well, we don't have any plants in the house.
We don't have any plants.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I nixed that a few years ago.
I'm like, no, we ain't, I can'tdo it.
I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
You think you could keep a cactus alive?
Surely you could keep a cactus.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Well, once in a blue moon it died, I don't know, I
don't know either, but that poorfiddle fig, I wanted that thing
so bad.
I think we just don't have agood place in our house to get a
little bit of light, becauseyou need a little bit of light,
you don't need a lot, and Iwanted it over in this one
certain corner and we'd have tomove it to the light every once
(11:07):
in a while.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Well, it's got.
You know these big old.
Well, you see the fake leaveson it, but they're huge leaves.
They have huge leaves and theyjust drop off.
Yeah, and they start turningWell, they drop off, and then
some of them start turning brown, and then I'm trying to decide
is this what it does?
Is this one of those things.
Because I didn't know what afiddle fig tree.
(11:29):
I've never known one before.
This was a few years ago.
And then I found out that no,that's not what they're supposed
to do, and it died.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
It died.
You tried to bring it back.
It was too late Too late.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, if I'd have realized what was happening,
instead of me just thinking, hey, it's shedding its leaves for
this time of year.
If I'd have took action then.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I like the one we got now.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Yeah, I just have to dust it every once in a while.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah, spritz it with some water.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Is that what you do, sure Spritz, is that what spritz
?
Is spritz do you spritz stuffto keep it like a regular shrub
or plant?

Speaker 1 (13:26):
I won a trip to Costa Rica.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Costa Rica.
Where is Costa Rica?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
I don't know Costa Rica is far away Central America
.
It's far away, it's close toHonduras.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Honduras is 1,700 miles away.
Only reason I know that issince I've been there, but Costa
Rica is like right there besideit.
Speaker 1 (13:45):

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
That's nice.
I won it, so it's free.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
So tell us, what does this mean?
Speaker 1 (13:51):
So I won it with Red Aspen, with my nail business.
If you've been around then youknow a while.
You basically work your buttoff to get so many points and
they upped the points this year,or I would have earned it a lot
sooner if they had kept thesame points.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
What are the points based off of?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Sales and your team.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
What's a team?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
A team of ladies I have.
So this year I only want it forme.
Next year I'll strive for you.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Me.
Yeah, I don't want to go toCosta.
Speaker 1 (14:23):

It won't be Costa Rica nextyear.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
It'll be somewhere different If it's Las Vegas to
the Sphere.
Count me in.
I want to go to the Sphere.
Speaker 1 (14:33):

The next business meeting is actually in.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Tampa.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Arizona, that's close .
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Don't look at me like I know.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
It's called Girls Weekend.
That's where we actually dobusiness.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Well, I would say, I would think that the whole thing
is Girls Weekend, because ifyou're selling nails, I don't
think it's a guy's weekend.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
That's just what they call it, though.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Girls weekend.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
But this one I'm going on.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I don't even think you really have to call it that.
I'm just what I'm saying.
It's like it's a given.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
But it's just something that we call it.
It's called girls weekend.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
But this one's called cozumel.
Nope, costa rica cozumel,mexico cozumel is where we we
cruise cruise to yeah.
So anyway, from december yes,december through the end of
november, you have thesedifferent levels that you build
up to so you're talking decemberof 23 to.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
November of 24?
.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
No, no, no, no, no, no.
24 to 25.
Okay, december, this past,december 24, to tomorrow, is the
last day and I hit it last weekyou said November and you're
saying tomorrow's the last day.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
That's why.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
I'm saying March, march, okay, did I?
Speaker 2 (16:02):
say November?
You keep saying November.
That's why I'm saying March,March.
Did I say November?
You keep saying November.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
That's why I'm what are you talking about?
Why did I say November?
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Don't know, that's why I was trying to.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
My bad December through March, you got four
months to earn these points.
And then my director earnedit's called active two.
She earned a $10 dollar bonus.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
She busted her tail that's a lot of nails.
Is that all you say?
Speaker 1 (16:27):
nails.
No, we sell makeup and stuff,but I, um, I pushed the nails,
but that's a lot.
It was a lot like last week.
Jody said you hadn't been live,are you not gonna do it?
I think when I hit it I kind ofshut down because I was tired,
almost burned out of it a littlebit.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
So when you say a live, what do you mean?
So you're going on what?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I go on TikTok and do lives and get new customers and
push them over to Facebook.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
So what do you do?
Do you just talk about nails onyour live?
I?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
put nails on.
I show you how to use press onnails and save money so you're
one of those that save moneylook our friend let me hold on,
let me say that.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
So you're talking about, you have it to where it's
showing like your nails it'scalled a flat lay you're doing a
flat lay I do a flat lay, soyou're like the camera's looking
at your nails and you're justdoing okay.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
So that's what the videos are the lives okay or you
can do them face to face, butmost people want to see what
you're doing.
So, um, my friend got her okay,so it's been spring break
around here.
Um, we'll go back to costa rica.
I gotta tell this.
My friend got her daughter'snails done acrylic nailsrylic
(17:43):
nails.
Ladies will know what I'mtalking about.
$90.
You know how much mine were $14.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
$14.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
These are $18.
$18.
These are $18.
$90.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
How long do they last ?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
though Probably not long.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
I don't know what, probably not long is.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Maybe a week.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Really.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It depends on how rough she is on them.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
So what does that mean?
So you go to a nail place andthey put and it's acrylic nails,
that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They put on Yep.
They put acrylic on your nails.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Is that special rate for something special, or is
that the regular?
Surely it's not that much tohave nails put on, is it?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah, that's why I'm trying to get women to change,
Because I can get a two-weekwear out of an $18 pair and
they're reusable.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
How many times can you reuse a pair of nails?
A couple, three?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Yeah, well, it depends on.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Wear and tear.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, do I reuse them ?
No, because I got so many.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So what do you do?
You throw them away after youwear them one time?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
No, I can't throw them away.
I give them to my friends.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
So you're swapping nails?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I'm about to do a big old sale.
Pre-worn nails you're giving toNot necessarily they're
different sizes and the ladiesthat I give them to their nails
are bigger than mine.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
So they'll use the ones that.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I didn't use most of the time.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
How do you not use nails?
I mean when I buy.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
There's 30 nails in a box.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Okay, so I didn't know.
I thought there was 10, sinceyou have 10 finger, nails?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Well, no, because everybody's nails aren't the
same.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
So there's different sizes.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
So there different sizes?
Yes, okay, yeah, so there'sthree different sizes per nail,
like small medium.
You said 30.
I know because there's halfsizes in there, because some
fingers you might need a halfsize whatever happened to just
painting the nails you have onyour hands.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Can you, can I not?
Speaker 1 (19:30):
like grow these nails out and then it flakes.
It takes forever to.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Is fingernail polish a thing of the past?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
For me it is because it takes too long.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
So what do they do when you go to a nail place?
Is it like Most?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
of them get dip powder and stuff like that, so
that dries like that when you'reputting it under.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I don't have a clue what I'm just saying.
Is it?
The fake nails like blah andthey paint the nails when they
put them on.
Is that what they?
Speaker 1 (19:57):
do yeah, yeah, they put like tips on them.
So anyway, I'm going to maybego to Costa Rica if the passport
gets back.
I guess I didn't believe inmyself, so I didn't get my
passport early.
They got to have the passportback because they got to have
the number off of it.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
for their part, Red Aspen, red Aspen, yeah Right.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
So part red aspen, red aspen, yeah right, so so
you're saying how long to get apassport back.
I expedited it so he said thatwas on on the very front end of
four weeks.
And did you know that yourpassport don't just go to one
central place like it goes toone place, but but then the one
place which I think might beAtlanta, might be like the place
, then that place sends it toother places to fix it, then
(20:45):
they send it back and that placesends it back out.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
To fix it.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
To like whatever they do.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Put it in the system or whatever.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
I don't know what they do, and then they send it
back.
I don't know what they do, andthen they send it back.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
But he said yeah, it's not.
He said there's no tellingwhere it'll end up, because I'm
like is there a number I cancall to make sure they get it?
Is there something?
I?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
can do?
I don't think there's nothingthat you can do, because it's
the government for the most part.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So you're just waiting.
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
That's why, if you're waiting to the last minute,
you're taking a big-time chance.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I should not have waited to the last minute, but—.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
I think mine's out of date.
It's 10 years and you said theother day that— it's been 10
years since I've been.
It's been 10 years.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
so I thought that too .
But you know what else we'vegot to do this year?
No clue.
The star, if we're going to flyanywhere.
The star.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
You got to have a star on your license.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Oh, what am I To fly.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
So if I don't, I can't fly.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
So just out of the blue something happens.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
No, this has been going on.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Nope.
So out of the blue, I have tofly somewhere for whatever
emergency.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I can't.
I mean in the United States.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
You have to have one for the United States.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
You have to have a star.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Is that like an extra payment?
Probably.
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
We'll talk about it next time.
We'll have that discussion nexttime.
I don't know.
I have to look it up.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Why don't you know?
You're talking about having tohave a star, but you don't know
anything about it.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
So when I had to look it up.
Why don't you know You'retalking about?
We're having to have a star,but you don't know anything
about it.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Why so, when I go to Arizona, get in your mic oh.
When I go to Arizona.
See if you wear headphones,you'd know.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
When I go to Arizona, is it called domestic?
When you fly out of the UnitedStates, what's it called when
you just fly inside?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Domestic is inside.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Domestic is inside, okay, so you can talk.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I thought you were going to talk while you're
looking at that.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Well, I can't talk in type too, All right.
Why do you have to have thestar on your driver's license?
It indicates a real ID, a realID compliance license license
meeting federal securitystandards for identification and
is required for boardingcommercial aircrafts and
(23:06):
assessing certain federalfacilities.
So you have to have it.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
So I still don't understand understand.
So if I'm if I'm getting adriver's license, that's an
official document for me, butit's not to vote, to do all
these things, to do whatever.
So why are you notautomatically putting a star on?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
if your driver's license or state id has a star
in the upper right hand corner,it's already a real id compliant
.
Nothing more is needed do I?
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I have a star.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No, you don't, Because they just started it a
few years ago and then year 2025is when it's going to be
mandatory to have it.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
What I'm saying is Can?
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I fly without a star ID.
Beginning May, the 7th of 2025,every air traveler 18 years of
age and older will need a realID, compliant driver's license,
state issue enhanced driver'slicense or another acceptable
form of ID to fly within theUnited States.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
So my driver's license is not good enough.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
You gotta have that star on.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But I can use another form.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What is that?
This makes no sense can Itravel in the us without my star
?
If you are travelingdomestically, you will only need
one valid form ofidentification either your real
id, which is the star, oranother acceptable alternative
(24:37):
such as, but what I'm saying isI know what you're saying, but
I'm just telling you I don'tthink you do.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
My point is being am I having to do an extra step to
get a star on?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
my yes.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
So when I go my driver's license is expired,
I've got to go get it filled out.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Is it not automatic?
Nope, are you sure Nope?
Is it not automatic?
Nope.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Nope, it wasn't last time when I got mine.
Nicholas had to get his.
Did he have to redo his?
Speaker 2 (25:06):
He'd just been 16, though, so this would have been
a few years ago.
Yeah, it would have been fouryears ago.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Yeah, so if it's just now, starting.
No, it's been going, it's justbeen mandatory.
This year is when you've had tohave you not heard about this
no have you not heard about this?
I?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
don't travel, so maybe that's why I tone it out.
Tune it out.
Do you tune it?
Do you tune it out or tone itout?
I do both I tune it out andtone it out so I didn't look.
If they told me sorry, Jody,you can't get on this airplane,
you don't have a star on yourdriver's license.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
I'd be like you got your wallet in your I was going
to say your purse.
You don't have a purse?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
No, my purse is in the truck.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
You don't have it.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
No, I just took it out before I came in here.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
I was going to wait to do mine because at our
location where you get yourlicense and stuff, you got to go
to a different building to dothe star.
You got to go over to thebasement of the courthouse, not
the little annex where we justgo and renew our license I'm
gonna have to research this onmy own, because I don't, I still
don't understand you just gottahave it, I can go get a
(26:15):
driver's license.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
That is good for anything.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Put it on there now, but surely it is?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I don't see you ask.
Because it's a valid a driver'slicense.
It's valid meaning as long asthere's not the expiration date,
you're still in when it's good,it's valid.
But you're telling me that if Iuse my valid driver's license
to get on a plane, I can't Ifyou don't have that star on it.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
You can't Because it's not valid because I don't
have a star.
Yes.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
But it's valid for anything else in my life.
I want to do with it.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Nope, I don't know.
I got him riled up now.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I mean, if this is true, it's bureaucracy.
Yes, that word.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
I feel you.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
I can't even say it Bureaucracy.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, I said it, so anyway.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Bureaucratic crap is what it is.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
So you research the star and you tell us more next
week.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
I wish you gave me a heads up.
I'd have had it ready for thistime.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I really didn't think about it until a while ago.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
I feel like there's a star on my driver's license.
I really do.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
I'm going to need you to pause and go get it Because
you hadn't had.
No, because I renewed yoursonline the last time it needed.
Mine renews next year.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Can you talk for two minutes while I go around and
get it?
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Sure, without pausing , can we talk about nails?
You talk about nails.
I'm going to talk about goingto Costa Rica without Jody.
I'm really nervous.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And you do that.
You tell everybody why you'renervous, and then let's see if—
I need you to run.
Oh, I'm going to walk reallyfast.
I need you to run.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Okay, go, I'm timing you Two minutes.
Go, we're going to costa rica.
(28:09):
I'm excited but I'm verynervous.
But I think my um, I think Iwill fly to atlanta and my uh
director will be in atlanta, sohopefully we will be on the same
plane, flying from Atlanta to.
There's two airports at CostaRica and I almost chose the
wrong one.
I can't remember now what it,which one it is, but anyway.
(28:34):
So yeah, all because of nails,I am getting to go to Costa Rica
.
It is LIR Airport I can't saythat Liberia, not the other one.
They told us not to do theother one, so they have plans
(28:55):
for us.
We can do excursions, we can.
I don't know if you've been toCosta Rica.
Tell me about it.
Tell me some things.
I didn't get the upgrade to thepool side.
I am going to be on the gardenside, but that's okay.
At least I made it.
Well, hopefully I'll make it ifI get my passport.
(29:16):
If I don't get my passport, I'mnot booking a flight yet,
because if I don't get mypassport, there's no sense in
having a flight.
So that was fast.
What are you having to pay for?
Huh?
Speaker 2 (29:27):
If you had a free trip, what are you?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
paying for you.
Just pay for your flight,everything else is free.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
All right, jody's going to pull out his.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Oh, and by the way, if you're a guy out there and
you're listening, and if you'rea guy, if you're watching right
here, the best thing for awallet is see, I've got the
little he loves these.
It's the little insert.
Is this the insert part?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
No, I think I actually bought that one.
All right, you bought this likethis, but the first time you
knew about it, it was an insertin a wallet, in a wallet I had
bought you.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
yeah, like it wasn't a trifold, it was a bifold and
it had that, it had this piecethat pulls out and it keeps your
credit cards and everything.
Well, now I saw I used that toa war.
It was an auburn yeah uh wallet.
So you bought me this one, andit holds all your credit cards
on one side.
Well, you've seen them.
Now to where you can push alittle button and it's good, and
then?
(30:16):
some, some of our metal.
I don't think I don't evercarry a wallet.
It's always in my side door.
I don't.
So.
I heard a long time ago theysaid a lot of men's back issues
is because their wallet being sothick and they're driving it
affects their back.
Well, so I used to have a thickwallet but I've gone to this.
(30:38):
But I never wear a wallet whileI'm driving or it's never in my
back pocket.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
It's always in the side door.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
So anyway that's what I'm saying and, by the way, I
forgot in this picture I've gotlong hair.
I've just seen that, so I knowyours don't have the star on
there, so, for anybody thatdoesn't know, I used to have
long hair for a short period ofmy life Three years.
How long did it take to grow itout?
Three years.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
It took a little minute.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah, I'll never do it again, though.
All right, all right.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Do you need me to look at it for you?
Speaker 2 (31:05):
I can see it way, way down here.
There's a heart on it, so Iguess that's a, that's a donor
way out there.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Oh my goodness, so you're a donor, it's gonna be in
the right right top corner, Ithink it said I don't have it.
I didn't think you did.
When do you expire?
Speaker 2 (31:25):
oh, that's that fine print on there.
Uh, I've got till 27 okay.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So if you're gonna fly before that, you've got to
go get a new one are these goodfor two years?
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I mean five years, five years.
Why didn't I say two years?
It's been a while since I'vebeen.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Mine expires next year.
Is it three years?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No, no, because that's two years.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
He's had to already get one.
So is it four years?
Because I'm pretty sure I don'tknow, or he has, or Nicholas
has to get one this year.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
I don't know.
I don't know.
We might better check his andmake sure he's not out.
I don't understand the wholelicense thing.
Getting one sure Photo ID sure,paying for it every four or
five years, that's a crock.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
What are we paying for?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
It's the same thing with your license plate, your
tags.
Did you?
Speaker 1 (32:16):
know, with a passport getting a picture, you had to
pay extra to get a picture.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
And you got to have a picture.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And you got to have the picture on it.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
It's an added cost.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
So if I would have but I could have took my own and
took it to him.
But there was all thesespecifics you had to do and I'm
like forget that.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
They can just take it .
Speaker 1 (32:35):
And he says don't smile.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Yeah, you're not supposed to smile, don't smile
real big, but, buddy, my eyesstood out.
Is that what he said?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, he gave me one of the pictures I need to give
it to you.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
You got big eyes.
I do have big eyes, but theywere blue.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
The blue stood out like I got to show it to you.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
It is really blue.
Your eyes don't stand out to meanymore.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Because you're used to it?
Maybe because I'm used to it.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Probably I've been around you for all these long
years.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Excuse me.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
But I do remember you used to have big eyes.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
I used to have big eyes.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah, I don't know if you do anymore, because I don't
recognize it Because you don'trealize?
Yeah, Realize.
So you recognize, realize andwhat I say, man to go.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
This is just a hodgepodge episode, by the way.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
That's fine, I like it.
I like to just go home.
Jody does not.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Jody wants structure, he wants to talk politics.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
No.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I still hadn't heard that he's proud of me for
earning this trip.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
How many times do I have to say I just didn't say it
on camera.
I'm proud of you.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
No, that's sarcastic.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
I am proud of you.
I told you that that's a bigdeal for you to win something.
I just think you screwed up nothaving a passport and now
you're going to miss out on thefree trip.
Shut up, that's all I'm saying.
Shut up.
And I'm not going.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
You'll go next time.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
I'm not going.
You'll go, I'm not going.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
If I earn it, I don't take a weekend off.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
You think I'm gonna take several days like a
vacation to another state, orit'll make it without you maybe
anyway, but no, I like structureon the episode.
So if I've got it laid out, kindof like what we get, what I
like to do is say, hey, here'ssome topics that I've got, hey,
(34:17):
here's some stories that I'vefound, hey, or I really want to
talk about this, we're going totalk about this, and if it never
works out, because everythingflows, that's fine.
But I want that structure beingthere to worry when you start
off.
Hey, this is the plan, but wecan deviate real quick instead
of you're in a second.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
You're crickets because I like to just do it.
No, we're not crickets.
Could y'all hear the airplane?
Speaker 2 (34:44):

Maybe I don't know what you'retrying to say.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
I don't feel like that was the word I was looking
for, but anyway, I don't knowwords here lately, so there's
that You've lost your vocabulary.
Words are hard.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Words are hard now life is hard as you get older
everything is hard.
I don't when you can't find theword to yeah, I've always been
that way, but it's gotten no,even more of a challenge.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
I'm worse than you.

uh so you pay extra or youdidn't pay extra for them to
speed up the process, I didthirty dollars really yeah that
means nothing, they just got sayextra hey, if you want to pay a
little extra.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It might make feel good yeah, that just means he'll
put it in the mailbox one dayearlier Instead of waiting until
tomorrow to let it go out inthe mail.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Stop, pardon that Stop.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
He's putting it out there this evening.
That's all.
That meant $30.
And he got 20 of it.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Oh, is that right yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Was it cash?
Did he say cash?
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I bought a money order because he said a money
order would go faster.
I said even faster than apaying with the debit card.
Well, I paid with the for themoney order with the debit card,
but he had to send the moneyorder with the passport.
So if I'd have paid with adebit card, how does he send the
money?
Speaker 2 (37:05):
he got you well, I did it, did you did you make the
money order out to just acertain person?
Speaker 1 (37:12):
No, I made it out to whatever place he said yeah,
here's my name.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Make the money order out to this and I'll make sure
it gets there.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Yeah, so he got it.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
How much is a total amount?
How much is a passport?
Speaker 1 (37:26):
What did I pay Before ?
Speaker 2 (37:28):
the $30.
Let's just say what's the baseprice $190.
$190 for a pass Wow.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
I did not know that it's for 10 years.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Yeah, but I used mine twice.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
You got one.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
I know.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
I really don't remember paying that for years.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Well, that was 10 years ago, so it was a little
bit cheaper.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, that wouldn't go up.
You think that goes up?
Speaker 2 (37:53):
Who knows?
Yes, I do.
Price of eggs went way up.
Why wasn't a passport?
Speaker 1 (37:59):
I don't know.
I was trying to rack my brain.
I don't even remember gettingyours I was not expecting, I was
thinking $70.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
I was thinking $50, maybe $70.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
Yeah, 70.
Speaker 2 (38:11):
Yeah, I was thinking 50, maybe 70.
Yeah, hmm, that hurt.
I'm speechless now.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Uh-oh, I'm in trouble when we get off now.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Jody's done, I'm done .
I got nothing else to say.
That's why I can't take offwork, because I'm having to pay
for stinking passports.
That's right.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
But it's good for 10 years, so I won't need one when
I win this trip every year.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
And I haven't needed mine in nine years.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Well, that's your problem.
You ain't going back toHonduras.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
I didn't think of where it was All right, you got
anything else.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
No.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
You done talking about your trip.
I guess we got stuck on.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
No, you talk about it , I was just, no, I'm good, got
stuck on this passport.
I know I can't get away from it.
You're mad at me now, so you'reready to get off and holler at
me what do you think, Winston?
See, he didn't deny it.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
What do?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
you.
He said, leave me alone Allright, I got pizza to eat.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
No, you said you was going to talk about that one
thing.
What?
The topic 20-year-old?
Oh it's too.
We're already like how far intothis thing.
We're like 40 minutes in, Ican't talk, I don't even have
all the paperwork.
No, there was this guy thatI'll just tell you a little
quick about it, the paperwork.
No, there was this guy thatI'll just tell you a little
quick about it, the highlightshe was like 13 years old when he
(39:38):
got basically locked in hishouse by his father and
stepmother and he's locked upfor 20 years, had very little he
was very isolated of, of course, but he had very little outside
his room.
Time, put it that way, he hadchores and all that stuff and
they barely fed him.
It was just sandwiches and liketwo cups of water a day and he
(40:03):
ended up making a fire, I guesshe was what did he get to make a
fire with?
oh, it was hand sanitizer.
The alcohol out of handsanitizer.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (40:14):
And something else.
Did you hear that?
Yes, I did.
My stomach just made thecraziest noise.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
I hope you can hear it.
I hope that didn't come throughbecause that was bad.
I hope you can hear it on themicrophones.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
So he didn't have hardly anything to eat, he said.
Sometimes he'd actually evendrink out of the commode.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
Just crazy stuff like that, so he had a bathroom in
his room, though.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Well, I guess he had access to it, but as he got
older, more padlocks and stuffgot put on the door because he
was getting older.
But that's another reason whythey started feeding them less
and less, because he's I thinkhe's he was at least 30, maybe
32, I can't remember the articlenow he did this fire.
(41:01):
It was like his last resort.
You gotta think about this.
If you're locked in your houseand you're at like year three
and you know how bad it is,you're not realizing hey, I've
got almost 20 more years of thisto go Right.
Yeah, you're thinking any dayI'm getting out of this.
So, anyway.
So he got attention from thefire.
That's what saved him.
Firefighters came in police,all this stuff, and they found
(41:25):
out his story.
Anyway, he weighs.
We're talking a 30-year-old.
He weighed 68 pounds 68 poundswhen they got to him.
So I don't know.
You know him being malnutritionand all that over the years.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
What was the reasoning?
I don't know.
Why did they do?
Speaker 2 (41:43):
this.
His father passed away lastyear.
I thought it was just a stepmomand before I found that I was
thinking I bet the dad's buriedin the backyard apparently,
because I'm thinking the stepmomwas the main role player in
this, but it was the father andthe stepmother, so the dad had
just as big a thing.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
I don't even know why they wanted to do that.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Well, if I had the article, I could have read the
whole thing to you.
Oh yeah, let's not do that yeah, well, she's not gonna, you
know, admit to any of it becauseshe's got a lawyer, all that
kind of stuff, but anyway.
So I just thought that wasinteresting and you find you
hear these things, you'rethinking there's no way.
You know, people do this toother people and sure enough.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
I mean, you think, why couldn't he get out as he
got older?
Speaker 2 (42:26):
but he had no strength if he wasn't eating
stuff I guess they keep you towhere you're not getting many
calories, you're not gaining anyweight.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
And you're not using muscles.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
And you're probably being just threatened.
Well, I mean, if they threatenyou, you're like well, if you
think it's bad now, if you tryand escape, I can make it ten
times worse.
I know that's horrible when youdon't have have any energy,
it's hard to get motivated totry and escape or do anything to
get out right.
I feel you yeah all that so Imean, it's not like you can get
(42:58):
a burst of energy and kick downthe door or overtake your
stepmother, whatever causeyou're.
You know she's two or threetimes your size and she's caused
it that's caused it.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
That's horrible, it is.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
I hadn't heard anything else about it since
they got him but, what is theprotocol in trying to get
somebody back to health?
That weighs one-third of whattheir average weight should be.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
And you'd think it probably stunned his growth.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
You know like he's probably not top-line.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
I think all of his teeth were rotted out, things
like that, because you know hehadn't had any kind of care
whatsoever.
I mean what do you do?
But there's nothing he can do.
He's just going with the flow.
So I think he was allowed likeoutside.
No family member or anythinglike, anything like well, there
was the day there was like anuncle that says that he just
knows that one year that he camearound at christmas every year
(43:55):
and then, like one year, youknow, the kid wasn't there and
ever since that year he justnever was seen.
Just like school, he stoppedgoing to school.
Yeah, there's a few times thatthe the police got called for
like a wellness check for andall this kind of stuff and
everything.
Just how it just gets kickedout of the rug, you know.
(44:15):
And then I found out too, ifit's, I think if they get called
to the house and if it wasproven, there's nothing there,
like after five years, theydestroy the records of any kind
of call to the house, so there'sno records at all.
So I don't know, it's just oneof those things that you know.
It just happened.
(44:35):
It's horrible.
How many other people are likethat right now?
Speaker 1 (44:40):
All right, is that all you got?
Speaker 2 (44:41):
That's all I got.
Speaker 1 (44:42):
I think you're ready for pizza.
Speaker 2 (44:44):
I am.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
Maybe we won't hear that noise again.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Winston, you ready for pizza?
Let's go.
Get pizza, let's go.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
Really he's ready.
See, he's ready, let's go get abone.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
You want to get a bone?
Let's go get a bone, and he'sgone.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
