Speaker 1 (00:02):
Slow Cooker week at morvihe samon Joey dot com. Somehow
that minutes just to speed it up for you, It
actually does slow cooker.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Yeah, yeah, it's sun for the producer's nail. I love
hearing from you. Reach out anytime on Instagram, Facebook or
eight seven seven three one zero four MSJ. What do
we have in that bag? David?

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Well, we're gonna get to Susan's question in a second
because she needs Murphy and Sam's help on her device.
She wants to buy her new hubby. I'm writing, but
first I'm to read a sweet message from Marietta. She says,
you guys make my thirty minute commute to work bearable
with my six year old, with my six year old
along for the ride in the car.

Speaker 4 (00:36):
Wait.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
I love the family, family friendly subject matter, and I
love the dynamics of your trio. Thanks for making my
morning radio fun again.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Thank you.

Speaker 5 (00:46):
Name.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
What a cool name. And I wonder if your nickname
is Mary or you don't stand for that because you
have a cool name or Yetta.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
Oh yeah, this is pretty.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
That is cool?

Speaker 6 (00:55):
All right?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Look, yeah, reach out anytime. I love hearing from you.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
And Susan says, hey, guys, I would like to purchase
a handheld game device for my hovey. I know he
likes to play a game on his phone where he
flies and lands different kinds of planes and different locations.
Are there any handheld gaming devices that aren't outrageously expensive
that you know of?

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Hmmm, sounds like he has the ultimate handheld gaming device already, maybe.

Speaker 6 (01:19):
Called a smartphone.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, well, a million game.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
There's a ton of software out there that are really
computer based games, So maybe what you should look for
is something that is a joystick or something that goes
with a regular PC. Because what do they call the
flights flights? It sounds like a flight simulator that he's flying.
My dad was into those, and they're really sophisticated and
cool these days. But that's about the best that I
can think of. If you really want that experience, you

(01:43):
needed to have it on a bigger screen, not just
a smartphone.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
I bet he would love that.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
That's just my thought, my recommendation. I'm surprised that you, Murphy,
have never done that or your dad like a game
where you're taking off and landing planes. Every time they
get together Murphy and his dad and they end up
talking about aviation and your dad learned to fly and
had lessons and love's flight.

Speaker 6 (02:07):
Do you have a license?

Speaker 1 (02:09):
He had his license, so you know I used to
play those games, I guess, you know back in the
early Windows days, like Windows ninety five ninety eight, I
had one of those.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
I just hadn't thought about it in a while.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
They are kind of cool, so realistic now that would
blow your mind.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yeah, they're really I mean they have even the squak
channels and all those kind of things where you hear
pilot talk and you can talk with other people who
are flying to It's.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Like a fantasy football of fly. Yes, okay, look, Marietta
and Susan, thank you so much. Reach out anytime. We
love to hear from you on Instagram or Facebook.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
And when you get a sec today, go ahead and
follow us on Instagram like is on Facebook when you
get a movement. That way, you'll always know when we
go Facebook live and we always love to hear from you.

Speaker 5 (02:52):
So thank you.

Speaker 6 (02:54):
You know, I'm having some trouble sleeping lately or falling asleep, Sam,
because you think.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Medio Sam, what I do is I actually drink Sleepy
Time tea.

Speaker 5 (03:03):
That's not a commercial by the.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Way, we make sleep Time Tea at.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
The Sleepy Time Extra that has the I mean, it's
just in it. Well, I'm probably gonna say this one.
It has just basic herbs. I think it has Valerian,
which is supposed to be a sleep aid.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Sorry, that reminds me of Game of Thrones Valarian Steel. Sorry,
of course everything it is not, you said Valerian.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
But anyway, so what did you find it helps you?

Speaker 6 (03:28):
Well, yesterday we had some suggestions in the producer's mail bag,
and I think Sue had suggested I get the Calm app,
which is what you have for meditations.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Like on your Amazon Echo right, no no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 6 (03:41):
On my phone. I got on my phone okay, and
on part one of the sections on the call app
is bedtime Stories or sleep stories, to which is sleep Okay.
So I downloaded it and I got this story. And
and there's this lady talking about a waterfall.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Mia was in her garage when she first heard the sound.
The open door looked out on a damp and cloudy afternoon.
A blanket of gray had hung in the sky.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Oh my gosh, she soon blanket of gray.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
That is Tamora. That is she's the one who actually
does the meditations. Oh so you know her, well, not personally.
I just spend ten minutes with her every morning.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
Jofviy awesome.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
And Tamra is telling me the story about how this
lady goes and she walks into the forest and she
finds the waterfall and it's when she gets to the
waterfall she breathes in deeply and releases slowly. Yeah, and
there's like twenty one minutes long, and as a long
time for that, I mean, it relies, I'll tell you.
I'll say this for it. It relaxed me good. It
did not knock me out because it ended at twenty

(04:43):
one minutes and I was still awake. But it had
relaxed me nice enough its purpose, Yeah enough that I
didn't fall asleep during it, but I fell asleep shortly
after it.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
You know what is so funny to me about this?
You both have the same girlfriend. Now. Her name is Tamra. Yeah,
she's in your life daily.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
She's great, though, I mean, really, I didn't do that
ten minute alf every day. I didn't didn't realize that
she read the bedtime stories. Now, if I could spend
morning and evening with her without knowing that, Jody, if
you're okay, I wonder.

Speaker 6 (05:13):
If that's her normal delivery or if like in real life,
she speaks faster.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Or it's that's her delivery for her work.

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
So it's like a calm centered person to me, she's
probably like that every day.

Speaker 5 (05:23):
She's probably liked that. The checkout line.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, oh, Murphy, Sam and Tamara. You guys like, no,
you're looking for something good to read. Check out are
not so serious book club. There's always a lot of
good recommendations there. I'm reading it by Stephen King several
years late, but I wanted to know what all the
hooplaws about. Don't want to see the movie.

Speaker 6 (05:42):
It's scary.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
There's some scary parts, of course, but it's a really
good book.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
It's interesting to me that that's so different. Same story,
but like movie you won't do, but the book you will.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Well, I just want to do the book first. I
need to know what I'm in for, scary clowns, what
you're in because I can close a book. I don't
want to walk out on a theater experience.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
Well, I agree with you on that too. There you go.

Speaker 6 (06:01):
The other day this past weekend, I had my belated
birthday party, my son Jackson, and Sam and my mom
picked up Maddie at her house and brought her up
to the party, came up, and then they went home
together afterwards. But I was talking to Maddie on the
phone last night and she said, you know, I really
did have a good time writing with Mimi. First of all,

(06:22):
I'm thinking, uh.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Oh, what did me me tell her?

Speaker 6 (06:25):
Yeah, because my mom is really old school, so she'll
get into some of those old stories that I've heard
a million times.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
And you know that kids, I mean kids love that.
Though your children love to hear the stories from Grandma.
I know I did as a kid.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Or even if they don't know, they love it. They
need it.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Right because it's a connection and something special and it's
kind of like this little time transport thing.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
Yeah. I think the things that got her the most
were when she started talking about your daddy, you know, well,
your daddy this, and your daddy.

Speaker 5 (06:52):
That, your daddy meaning you me.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Yeah, And she did tell Maddie, and I've seen the
pictures of this about how how chubby of a child
I was. Oh, Sam, I'm sorry, I was really really little.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
That's okay.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
You know, we had one of those blow up pools,
you know, the little four foot around I'm aware of it. Yeah,
and we've got like thousands of pictures of me just
sitting on there like a bump on a log.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Wow, you know with just you're the oldest. That's why
you have thousands of pictures of you just doing nothing.

Speaker 6 (07:22):
The good news is she didn't show her any of
those pictures because those are all at my mom's house, right,
But she did go tell me because matt Mom, Mimi
says that you were you were really fat when you.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
So your mom doesn't tell that story that she's told
a million times about how she almost died in childbirth.

Speaker 6 (07:38):
No, she wouldn't tell that to Maddie, and she would
maybe when Mattie's older.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
But isn't that an exaggerated story and not real?

Speaker 6 (07:45):
It's just that you were my head was so big.
They had a choice, my dad had a choice of me. Whoaw,
my mom looks like everything worked out.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Just find those stories. Maddie needs that. She's longing for
that relationship with her grandmother. And where else is she
going to hear stories about you, Sam? Nobody else is
gonna have I'm gonna tell them I love hearing from you.
Jump into the conversation anytime at eight seven seven, three
one zero four six seven five's.

Speaker 5 (08:18):
Calling for you. Jody, morning, good morning.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Good morning. How are you, darling.

Speaker 7 (08:24):
I'm doing good?

Speaker 5 (08:26):
Sweet Wow.

Speaker 7 (08:27):
I just heard you talking about the book it. Yeah,
and I'm a huge fan. I just read it far
as the ten Times Top Summer WHOA, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I love it.

Speaker 7 (08:38):
I just love it.

Speaker 8 (08:40):
I've read it. I don't know.

Speaker 7 (08:43):
I think I was like thirteen when I first read it.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Wow, that's a big book. You're not intimidated by books
the size of books.

Speaker 7 (08:51):
No, No, this one. It's just it's not just about
the clown. It really isn't. It's about friendship, and that's
that's what it's. It's the very end of the book
makes me cry every time.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Oh wow. You know, I love a lot of friends
who tell me this. I have another friend. I thought
I was telling the guys who said, Jody, you love
to read, you like Stephen King, you should give it
a try it. Every time I've grabbed it in the library,
it's like, man, I need or is it a book?
Is it a door stop?

Speaker 7 (09:23):
It is intimidating, but it will not take long to
get into it.

Speaker 6 (09:28):
It really won't.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Okay, good deal for me.

Speaker 7 (09:31):
Harder to get into.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Oh well, i'll see. I'm on the third book. So yeah, man,
you smoke everybody. So have you seen the new movie
I have.

Speaker 7 (09:43):
I went on Saturday by myself.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Oh you're really brave. Okay, So was it great?

Speaker 7 (09:50):
It was really good. It was better than the TV
version back in the nineties. Right, it is different from
the book, but it's very well made. I mean there's
always difference. They can't do it right.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
No nobody can touch what a book can do. It's true,
it's so true. Well, look, thanks so much for that.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
You'd so welcome. We appreciate the call.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Berger.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
You know, it's funny that she said the length of
the book is intimidating. That was the subject matter of
the book.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, I've read plenty of Stephen King and it's not
all just scary. It's very intelligent. That's why he's the master.
So maybe I should need to get over myself because
I have picked it up so many times and never
I know, it's just it's the equivalent reading books Netflix
all right, eight seven seven three one zero four six

(10:39):
seven five. We love hearing from you. We love hearing
from you, and you can join the conversation. Join the
show anytime eight seven seven three one zero four MS
J call or text.

Speaker 5 (10:52):
How are you, Julie, Great Nose shows. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
To work in the morning. Sweet, I love you God. Sweet.
Question for Sam okay.

Speaker 7 (11:04):
And the sleeping Yes, they all talked about the Amazon Echo.

Speaker 6 (11:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (11:10):
I can't remember if Sam has an echo or not.

Speaker 6 (11:13):
Yeah, oh yeah, I got one.

Speaker 9 (11:14):
But okay, look up what. I was having a lot
of trouble sleeping at.

Speaker 7 (11:19):
Night being the mom of five teenagers.

Speaker 8 (11:24):
It'll do that. I'm constantly thinking about what you have
to going on plus the work.

Speaker 9 (11:29):
Yeah, and I find ocean waves very soothing. And they
have outs to where you can play the sound of ocean.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
Waves on the Amazon and you can play it first.

Speaker 6 (11:42):
I bet they have. I bet they have like waterfalls
and crickets and all that kind of stuff. Huh.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
Oh.

Speaker 10 (11:47):
Yeah, you can do rainforest, but not so much.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
For they have rainstorms, but sometimes the thunder kind of Jersey.
What do you What do you think, Sam? Would that
keep you awake? Would add stuff to your brain?

Speaker 6 (12:07):
No, I'm going to have to try it up. My
only issue with those digital things like that is that
it Sometimes they're loops, and so I'm going to say,
I'm going to start concentrating on when it loops and
starts repeating.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Are your own worst and right there.

Speaker 6 (12:23):
But I'm willing to give it a shot. I never
even thought of that.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
I'm gonna bring it into the room thenetting Yeah, well
the waves.

Speaker 9 (12:30):
You really can't kill a loop.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
It's just you shouldn't be able to tell. Now he's
going to try, Julie, this is a beautiful, a beautiful suggestion.
We thank you for it. Thank you, you're an angel.
He's going to be up listening for the loop.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
Yeah, I'm gonna give it a spen.

Speaker 5 (12:48):
Though it's funny that you say that because I have
you to say.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I guess some of the original sound effects and things
that I've downloaded in my phone have done that same thing.
But I still don't keep me awake at night, eventual
drift off. It's still relaxing a truly.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
At first, for the same reason I can't meditate.

Speaker 5 (13:06):
Julie, thank you.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Eight seven seven three one zero four six seven five.
All right, we all know the way that we some
some of us watch TV shows today is to binge them.
You know it's a term. Now it's a verb. You're
gonna go home and binge something and you do it together,
And it's sort of a negative association because you know, truly,

(13:28):
anytime we've binged a show together, Murphy, it's harder to
remember if you watch two and three episodes and then
two and three episodes another day. It's harder to remember
when you have to wait a week for something. It's
almost like that that one first show you watch sort
of sits with you in marinates all weeks, talk about
it at work, right, and so it establishes itself better,

(13:49):
Like it took me a long time to watch mad Men,
and I liked that.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
It did, but it didn't take you as long as
you thought. And I think that of any of the
shows that you and I have watched together, except for
maybe the Sopranos, we would do as many as three
episodes in one shot potentially.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
But yeah, that was it, and I can't feel like
it is there.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
I can't do any more than that.

Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, and what you did Sam with Stranger Things Too
is called a binge race.

Speaker 6 (14:14):
Yes. Netflix has actually come up with a term where
if the day it comes out, you're waiting for it
because you're gonna blow through it, all right, it's bene racing.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
You didn't plan to do that. It just happened to you.

Speaker 6 (14:24):
It just you can't stop.

Speaker 5 (14:25):
Well, see, that's it. It's that.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
And when Jody and I watched the first episode, which
that's as far as we are in the season two,
I wanted to do the second episode, but it's too late.

Speaker 6 (14:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (14:33):
I mean, do you find that you're like, you don't
go to bed, You're stay up to late.

Speaker 6 (14:37):
Yeah. Maddie and I were up Saturday night till almost
midnight and we gotta finish.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Yeah, yeah. So it's called the binge race. Well, you
know all the negative reasons not to do that, because
you're not being active. You know, your brain's rotten away,
you don't remember it anyway, blah blah blah. But there
are a couple of good things about it. And I'm
sure you experienced and I've experienced this every time with Murphy,
with you, Murphy, when we watch something together, it's a
shared experience, right, It's so thing we look forward to together.
So it's actually a positive thing for couples. So it's

(15:04):
something that you sort of bond over. And I feel
that way me too. I'm like, I can't wait for
whenever you can't watch with me. I'm like, man, it's
a shared experience, Sam, So you and Maddie, Maddie.

Speaker 6 (15:13):
For what we made it because right, because it's like Maddie,
you know it's out today, right, let's do it together.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
And that show will be an iconic thing for her
in her childhood. That's a shared memory now, even though
it was pop culture.

Speaker 5 (15:26):
I do like the shared experience part. Though You're right,
it's funny.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
I am so not qualified to give Sam any sort
of online dating advice just because it's not something I've
ever done, you know, I mean, just has been together
for a long time. But when you had the profile
pick disappear on you right as you were about to respond,
really did think that, you know that that could be
a scam or something like that, and.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
So she was too good to be true.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah, and so Ellen actually is is confirming that. Thanks
Ellen eight seven seven three one oh four MSJ.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
You do have to.

Speaker 11 (15:59):
Watch out for scam because there are people on there
that aren't who they say they are.

Speaker 6 (16:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (16:05):
So Murphy was right on that, Yes, and I would
get these men that would be in way different states,
like really far off from me, and they would be
these hot, like firefighter dudes, and it was called the
same type of message that they would send. It was,

(16:27):
you know, I'm looking for that special someone, and it
was kind of like a generic yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
You know to me, when somebody puts that kind of
effort forth for something that's a sham or whatever you
want to call it, you wouldn't it be better to
put your effort towards something else that's legit. I just
can't understand it, Like how much work has to go
into getting some ladies.

Speaker 6 (16:49):
Or what they're looking for?

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Probably money?

Speaker 11 (16:51):
Yeah, yeah, and you know, they may not even be
in the States. I don't know. It may be you know,
they're somewhere else and then they're going to tell you
this story and then they're going to get try to
get your money or whatever. But it was it was
very frustrating to have the search and to determine, you know,
who is doing that and is correct and who is not.

Speaker 6 (17:13):
So your advice to me is to take down my
firefighter pictures.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Right, ask you if you had firefighter pictures, you up
your odds? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (17:22):
Probably so, right.

Speaker 5 (17:24):
Don't be misleading.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Eight seven seven three one zero four six seven five
anytime you want to join us.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
I have had a few, like Allen said, from out
of the country, looked at her for you know, basically
looking for a husband.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Are those pictures they're enticing?

Speaker 6 (17:43):
Pretty enticing?

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Okay, so but those are the ones clearly that an't
armed out right.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Well yeah, uh, one can dream, Sam, but sorry, yeah, yeah, yeah,
join us anytime. Let us know about your experiences online
eight seven seven three one zero four m s J
eight seven seven three one zero four MSJ to jump
in anytime to the conversation Sam. More online dating advice

(18:10):
and stories for you.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
Yeah, because I'm on two sides plenty of fishmatch dot com.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
All right, casey, what's your story.

Speaker 9 (18:17):
I've actually met my fiance on nice. There are some
very strange people out there.

Speaker 6 (18:23):
Yeah, I can vouch for that, so you.

Speaker 11 (18:26):
Have to be very careful.

Speaker 9 (18:27):
But one of the rules that I had always said
is my first date with them was gonna.

Speaker 11 (18:33):
Be at lunch.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
Nice.

Speaker 7 (18:35):
Yes, because I.

Speaker 9 (18:36):
Only had an hour for lunch, and I always as
a female, it's kind of difficult for men to take this.
But if I didn't think it was going to work out,
I paid for lunch. That way, I didn't feel obligated
to have to go out again.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
I feel you, okay, so, but it does work.

Speaker 9 (18:52):
There are some really good people out there, you just
have to weed through the bad ones to find the
good ones. And actually were getting married next year.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Nice. So Casey, how long were you on Plenty of
Fish before you weeded through and found him?

Speaker 9 (19:09):
About a year, I guess.

Speaker 6 (19:11):
And you've gone on other dates?

Speaker 8 (19:12):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (19:12):
Yeah, yeah, I'd gone on a few dates, a few
lunch dates.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Yeah, a few lunch.

Speaker 9 (19:18):
Dates and maybe one or two after work dates or
something like that. But you know, you know very quickly
if they're going to match with you. But you know,
I agree, I didn't take the time to waste the time.
And you know there was a requirement.

Speaker 7 (19:33):
You had to have a job.

Speaker 9 (19:34):
You needed to be able to support yourself because I'm
not going to support you. You know, things like that,
and just take take your time and don't jump into
something very quickly because lord knows, I know it could
be the wrong jumping.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
Yeah, yes, I know that Sam's been there before.

Speaker 6 (19:52):
I've jumped a few times too.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
I love you bring up a very good point, you know,
right away, especially when you're sitting across from somebody at lunch,
you there really want to be there and know more
about them, or you don't.

Speaker 6 (20:04):
Right, Yeah, thank you, Jasey.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
The thing she's talking about is called chemistry. I believe
you either have chemistry with somebody or you don't. You
really can't force it, and you.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
Can pick that up in the first five minutes I
think really quickly.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, I say give it the lunch Okay, anytime you
want to jump in and join us eight seven seven
three one zero four MSJ. You know, we were discussing
this the other day, and we were talking about it
with our girls at the dinner table the other night,
Sam Murphy and I about there being almost too much

(20:37):
information thanks to the world of social media. Social media,
in whatever feed you're looking at, there's almost too much
information coming at us all the time. So you have
to learn to self regulate. It's not healthy to be
looking at other stuff all the time. We were talking
about this with our girls because Taylor was telling us
about what was it a second social media site? Did

(21:00):
some some of her pewers have?

Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, Well, you've got your regular account, then you've got
your spam account.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Have you heard of us.

Speaker 5 (21:06):
I've never heard of a lot put it that way.

Speaker 6 (21:08):
A regular Facebook and a spam Well it's not.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Facebook for them, no way, like Instagram or Snapchat.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Under a different alias, so that they can be more
expressive about things for you know, they only allow certainly
about other people.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Oh, producer David's got his hand out. Oh do you
mean like a f Instagram, your fake Instagram? Oh, I
don't know. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
I had some of the college kids that I went
to college, they're still in college now that they have
one of those. Right, very expressive. It sounds like very
star with the public to see if they know.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Okay. And this is what Murphy. What piece of advice
Murphy whipped out at the table, which I thought was huge.
So anybody on social media check this out. This came
from a grandfather, a friends grandmar.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
A friend of our said his grand his favorite grandfather's
saying was, never put anything in writing that you will
regret later because it lasts forever.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
It does.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Never put anything negative or ugly in writing that you
don't want to stick because you can't take it back.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
I believe that email for text for social media.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
I mean, his grandfather was around long before the internet,
you know what I mean. So this was just like
you know, notes and you know whatever. But now, whether
it's an email or anything that you I mean to me,
even if it is your quote unquote fake account, just
because it's fake doesn't mean that the words aren't gonna hurt.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
Or that it's not gonna eventually reach the person you're
venting about.

Speaker 5 (22:23):
Truth.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
I just think it's ridiculous. And when you have a
true problem with someone, the thing to do is either
get on with your life and let it go, or
talk to them about it. You know, we've lost a
little bit of that. So I love that advice.

Speaker 5 (22:39):
Yeah, it's like it's good for anybody fix right.

Speaker 6 (22:41):
I think I'm gonna get my Finstagram account.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
To that.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
Special surprise for you guys this morning, because somebody that
we love a lot has been through a lot lately.
Former producer Drew joins us this morning. Hey Dolan, Hey
guys are going great.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
In case you don't remember, producer Drew was with us
in the very beginning for a long time, and now
he's an established attorney, you know, with a roster of celebrity.

Speaker 6 (23:09):
Being a law man, a Hollywood attorney.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Okay, that's right.

Speaker 10 (23:15):
Some would say I've moved downwards since leaving, y'all.

Speaker 6 (23:18):
Oh, I would know that, Emily.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
No, Look, I want to get straight to why we're
visiting with you because I heard some news the other
day that it made my heart drop. You are how
old now?

Speaker 10 (23:34):
Thirty nine years old?

Speaker 2 (23:35):
And what happened the other day?

Speaker 10 (23:36):
I had a heart attack?

Speaker 5 (23:38):
You know what? When we heard that, I was I mean,
I was just mortified.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
So tell us about the day, all right.

Speaker 10 (23:45):
So I woke up at four thirty on Saturday morning,
which is not my normal, and it feels like I
got a fist and not in my d middle my
chest and I sit up and I sit still, and
it's okay, it's manageable, but kind of freaked out, little bit,
a little concerned. Yeah, not going away?

Speaker 2 (24:02):
Is that what you thought immediately? That's hart A little.

Speaker 10 (24:04):
Concerned about it. Yeah, because I woke up and that
woke me. That's what woke me up. If I sat
still and set up, it would get better. If I
laid down, it hurt. If I got up and walked
around for any length of time, it hurt. I just
sat there. I watched some TV. I'm trying to you know,
do something. You know, Okay, you know, I'm thirty nine.
It's got to be in ingestion. It's got a million
different things other than what it could be. Okay, And

(24:28):
finally Letdy wakes up. We talked about it. I'm concerned
enough where I've decided to talk to her about it.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
That's probably yea once you let her in on it,
your wife, because I know what the reaction is going
to be.

Speaker 10 (24:38):
Go get somebody look at it.

Speaker 8 (24:39):
There I go, and they do a couple.

Speaker 10 (24:41):
Of EKGs and everything looks fine. One the place I
was that originally tells me, well, our EKG machine is
not working very well. We're not getting a great reading.
Everything looks fine, but just out of an abundant precaution,
we're gonna why don't you go to the er instead? Okay,
get in the car and drive the er. In fact,

(25:02):
I'm so unconcerned about this. Letty went to the movies
with the kids.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
Oh are you sure?

Speaker 2 (25:08):
But you did end up it was a heart attack.

Speaker 10 (25:11):
So the next time I see a doctor, he's like,
you're getting admitted to the hospital, budding, you're having a
heart attack. All right, God, there goes my Saturday.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
I cannot even believe you. All right, stick around with
us a little bit more. We want to talk about
this a little bit more. Stop laughing, Sam, I'm gonna.

Speaker 6 (25:27):
Watch the game today too.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
We're visiting with former producer Drew and we love and
we don't get to chat with very often. But we
heard some news the other day that really well shook
me up. And I know Sam's face went pale when
you heard this, Sam, that you had drew a heart attack.
I did at thirty nine years old.

Speaker 10 (25:50):
Part of my Saturday.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
You woke up, you had this like it felt like
a fist sitting on your chest. You go to the hospital,
even without the wife and kids. You're like, I'm just
gonna take care of this and see what's up. And
they admitted you because you were having a heart attack.

Speaker 10 (26:05):
Yes, Livings there at the hospital with me. At this point,
we're sitting there like, hey, you know what, I'm adopted.
I don't really have a lot of medical history on this.
Why don't you text my birth mother and ask her
if we got any family history of this? Kind of
good idea, but like a decade ago.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, okay, it's okay.

Speaker 10 (26:23):
We get back a text message and says, Oh, yeah,
every male in the family's had heart problems. In fact,
every male's had a heart attack before the age of forty.

Speaker 8 (26:31):
Eh.

Speaker 6 (26:32):
Well, now you're a member of the family.

Speaker 10 (26:34):
I'm a winner in the genetic lottery.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
True.

Speaker 10 (26:37):
And so at that point, now my doctor is a
little more concerned, and we're going in for the heart cast,
the heart caster on Sunday where they take something a
tube and they run it up a vein and they
go to my heart and take a look and see
what's going on.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
And you were blocked, right, I had one.

Speaker 10 (26:51):
Hundred percent blockage in my left artery.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
To so at that.

Speaker 10 (26:56):
Point I'm told, I'm told, before I go into the
heart cast, if everything's fine, you'll be out in fifteen minutes.
If everything's not fine, maybe a little longer. Three hours later,
I woke up, True, and I got a scent foot
in that left artery to keep it open. And I've
got a bunch of new fun medications I get to take.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
But I'm told, forever, when your diet is different, isn't
it the.

Speaker 10 (27:19):
Probably need to be different. Anyway, I'm getting to discover
all those vegetables I've been pushing off the plate for us.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
I remember that he hated vegetables.

Speaker 10 (27:29):
I'm now learning about what sodium means and how much
I should have and oh, oh dear God, how much
you get when you go to places, and you know
how much if you don't pay attention, how much sodium
you can take in in a given day is unbelievable.
And I'm not a big salt guy, but I'm still here,
and that's the beauty of it. I get a chance
to make some changes and do some things and see

(27:49):
if I can work on that in the future, you know,
hopefully learn some lessons.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
So glad you're okay, And we appreciate you sharing the
message because you know what everybody and by the time
we get into thirty be asking those kind of questions
about history and the family.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
That's right.

Speaker 10 (28:03):
If you don't have a medical history, go get it.
If you don't know what sodium and cholesterol are and
what levels look like, go find out right. And if
you have any issues whatsoever, don't be a hero, go
get checked. It could save your life.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Listen to you.

Speaker 9 (28:16):
Yeah, there I go.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
Yeah, I love you. Take care, Okay, all right, Murphy,
you remember what we had last night for dinner? What
did you have God and tell Sam Oh.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
I had a sandwich last night. It was I had
to stop and think for a minute. It was kind
of a crazy night. I just put together a turkey sandwich,
which is great. We had some homus on the side,
really good. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (28:39):
Yeah, we use regular bread or toast regular.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Bread, regular bread. I toasted mine. The thing is, I
bring this up. I literally think it might make sense
for me, just for the time being, to stop cooking
dinner at night. I lately the girls come home from
school so hungry and they eat, so they eat a
third meal at three point thirty and four o'clock in

(29:02):
the afternoon, and they snack too. And all these years
I've been cooking dinner, and dinner's ready around what's six
or six thirty, depending on what we have going on
when we're home.

Speaker 6 (29:11):
They don't want to and they don't want to eat.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
How many times lately I think ten times I can
count lately I have cooked like, look Phybe your favorite stuff,
Look Taylor, your favorite thing, and they're like, I'm not
really not hungry, And that's because they had eaten something
significant an hour of ago.

Speaker 6 (29:27):
Don't feed them a big snack, because I mean, I
always heard this when I was a kid. Oh hell yeah,
And I tell mine too, you're going to ruin your dinner.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
I agree with that, told them that because that's also
a life habit that could be a problem later on.
Oh I know that big of a snack later and
then the late dinner, but.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
They're really hungry and they start doing homework or whatnot.
I don't want to be the person who's always going nope,
no more if they're really hungry. I don't want to
be that person.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
I think it's kind of a responsibility, don't you. I mean,
we are unfortunately, we are the good cops and the
bad cop.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
It was like you're being a bad mom there, right,
I'm gonna be bad cop.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
But I think it again is about getting them back
on a schedule. They just they're just now fresh back
in their school schedule. So maybe it just needs a
tweak like Sam saying, I.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
Guess you didn't like that turkey sandwich. Nice little break for.

Speaker 5 (30:16):
Me for a while, you know me.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
I don't expect you to do that, but I do
think that we all need, the four of us need
to be able to sit down.

Speaker 5 (30:21):
I love good time, quality time, right.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Kind of like come in here anyway, you're going to
eat one spoonful. Come in here and sit with us anyway.

Speaker 6 (30:27):
If you need to blame it on me, mister Sam says,
I don't need.

Speaker 5 (30:31):
To give you that.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
No, that's okay. I can handle it. I can handle them.

Speaker 6 (30:36):
Well, I'm good for you.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
Thanks, No, no need.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
My nephew Asa surprised and proposed to his fiance and
you know, marriage, and the way that they did it
was really sweet. My family, you know, loves the beach,
as you know, and so, uh, they were at Pensacola
Beach for this proposal.

Speaker 5 (30:59):
Over the week in the whole family are just no
part of the family.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
Obviously Jodie and I weren't there, but.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Obviously we weren't in.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
That well, I mean they were, you know, they wanted
to make sure that the circle was was tight, just
because they didn't want her to know. It was a surprise, right,
and you start bringing in too many people from out
of town all of a sudden, you know what I mean, that's.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
What's going on here, right.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
So so, but my sister did send the pictures back
and it was really really beautiful.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
That's the thing. That's how we learned that was the
coolest part. One one of the coolest things that I've
ever received on a text was a picture of him,
you know, down on one knee on the beach in
a heart. Yeah, rose petals everywhere.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Apparently his dad, you know, my brother in law and
my father who was there, you know, mid made this
with rakes, a sand shaped heart, heart shaped right right,
and then it was filled with rose petals.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
This is the part. Do you know how many rose
petals were in there?

Speaker 6 (31:58):
Now?

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Three thousand rows and that's a fortune.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
It's well, how how many roses is that there's a
lot of petals on one rose?

Speaker 1 (32:08):
I don't know, Matthew, you know, I don't know if
there's ten pedals on a rose, thirty roses.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Your sister told me three hundred roses. Your sister said
there were fifty candles, but they wouldn't stay lit because
of twenty five twenty mile an hour guss the beach.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
I know, with all the tropical warnings in place, I'm
glad that the weather held out for him. What a
sweet thing it's to see the pictures and it's exciting
and it's and really special too to see your nephew.
I mean, who in your mind is ten years old forever, right, Yeah,
you know who's now grown up? Posing and proposing is
really it's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
Proposal on the beach is something else? Now do you
think they'll get married on the beach. We haven't had that.
We don't know what they're planning.

Speaker 5 (32:46):
My brother got married on the beach. Yeah, maybe maybe
maybe you will.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Beach weddings are beautiful.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
It gives us a reason to go, doesn't that.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
If get invited? Huh, that's a joke anyway, can you congratulation?

Speaker 6 (33:00):
Of course, we'll go beautiful.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yeah, we'll put the picture on our Facebook page today. Okay,
so you can see those how many rose petals?

Speaker 5 (33:06):
Three thous thousand?

Speaker 1 (33:10):
So Jody and our girls typically get really excited when
they see yard signs as they're driving along. Those for
garage sales, and then the big ones are the estate sales.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
It reminds me of my grandmother. And it's so funny
to me that Phoebe, who is twelve, loves the garage sales.
Sometimes on a Saturday morning and we have nothing going
on and I'm looking way forward to sleeping late, she
will wake me up and go, can we go find
a garage? Sale or on states heal, mom and you, uh,
we sometimes do she loves it.

Speaker 6 (33:39):
Drive by and scope it before you get out to
park the car and get out, or you just.

Speaker 2 (33:42):
Park if you see maybe a wee little bit.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
What good does that do scoping it? You don't know
what's in the car.

Speaker 6 (33:47):
Drive by and you look over and it's like, well,
it looks like it's been picked over.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
Yes, sometimes you do that within two seconds.

Speaker 11 (33:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
But inside most of these estate sales, I mean they've
got yeah, they don't empty it in the car board.
It's like you're going through the whole house. They've got
things organized in each room.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
State sales are crazy to me. I mean, you know,
you just never know what you're going to see in there.
Remember earlier this year I bought for like a nativity
set for Christmas and feet one and it was it's
imperfect condition, it's beautiful.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
And I realized I am such a geek because to me,
I walk in and I start seeing people's life story
instead of their things.

Speaker 5 (34:23):
He starts the person he worked for the phone company.
You know, I mean all of that, I just I
just do.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
She must have loved Christmas.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
But the estate sale that you got a text on
earlier this week, Jody, Yeah, really, this is like in
a very high end neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Is that I am Today would be the day, and
I'm too. I feel like, first of all, I need
to be focusing on other things. We're gonna go visit
my cousin Candae this weekend and bring her much needed
stuff because she's still recovering from Harvey, and so I
need to be focused on that, not on someone's priceless art.

Speaker 5 (34:54):
Not on diamond encrusted tupperware.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
But we were I got the email alert about it,
and it's like you could show up. It was yesterday
afternoon for like wine and cheese and getting your number,
a preview party, and then today today would be the day.
And it's art and all this it is higher end
stuff and then all that vintage stuff. Remember Sam, do.

Speaker 6 (35:16):
You feel like you got to dress up for it?

Speaker 2 (35:17):
I hope not.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
It's I mean, look still to me at the end
of the day, I wouldn't be intimidated by it. At
the end of the day. It's a garage sale. It's
an estate sale, you know what I mean. I guess
happens to be in a nicer home.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
It's very hard to keep away. I'm just nervous that
I won't be right.

Speaker 5 (35:30):
Even rich people have drunks.

Speaker 6 (35:33):
Is that how you approach it? When you walk in
this is just a garage to the day, Murphy. I
might need a little assistance. There's some advice from you here.
You know, it's been since Labor Day that I've stopped
drinking Yah Sam again, and in doing so, I guess

(35:53):
because I drank when my go to drink was drink,
and so now when I'm not drink thinking it's like
I've got I've got social situations, or even sitting around
the house. Oh okay, it's like it gets old drinking
iced tea after a while, or then when you switch
over to say, one of those sparkling waters with the

(36:14):
flavors the wonder and orange really good for a while,
and then it's like, okay.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
This is that's going to be true for everything. But
guess what you're in the You're in America. There are
more choices here than anywhere else.

Speaker 6 (36:25):
No, I don't know if I need to come up
with a you know, plot out a grid of a system.
I need to.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Sounds like you letting this get in your way.

Speaker 6 (36:33):
I like to drink a lot, and I don't mean
the alcohol beverage.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yeah, but why do you have to have one go
to beverage. I mean, if you vary it up, then
you eliminate your problems. Water and sometimes just diet soda
and sometimes just tea.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
I can I can give you a new drink idea
every day if you like, for a year.

Speaker 6 (36:50):
That'd be fun.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Okay, can you want to start with this weekend ginger
Ale delicious? Oh yeah, busy.

Speaker 6 (36:55):
You know it's weird about ginger Ale. I never think
to drink of it unless I'm on a plane.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
I know why.

Speaker 6 (37:01):
I mean, they come around and they say, would you
like a soft drink? Got a ginger Ale? Ginger Ale?
Haven't had one of those since the last right.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
Supposedly it's is this true Murphy? Supposedly I was told
to drink it when I was pregnant. It keeps you
from being nauseated or something.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
Yeah, that's ginger and it is that.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
And so I don't know if that's an old, live
stale thing or if it's like the real deal, But
that's the real reason that people would drink it, because
ginger are supposed to be selling your stomach you have
another advantage, Sam. It really over me because I can't
really do a ton of the sugar drinks. You know
what I mean because the type one diabetes. So you
know you can literally go do anything or try anything.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
You also have that option. This is America. Too many options.
Have you been down the cereal aisle? Too many options?
You have every diet option too. But I would do
ginger ale this weekend and then next.

Speaker 6 (37:48):
Week, thought a ginger ale. That's a good idea.

Speaker 5 (37:50):
And they make diet ginger ale toos.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Right, Okay, endless possibilities, you have no problem.

Speaker 6 (37:56):
All right.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
Murphy's on the road today, but with us, he's still there.

Speaker 11 (38:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (38:03):
Yeah, I figured him while I'm traveling to go help
a friend. Excellent about a horse.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
Okay, So we were telling you about our Phoebe, who
is twelve years old, who's a cheerleader. She's a seventh
grade cheerleader, and she decided to up her game recently.
She wanted to drive to try prep. That's what it's called, right, David.

Speaker 3 (38:22):
Yeah, you can call it a prep. Some people call
it a half or just two hands. Okay, it's multiple
names for it.

Speaker 5 (38:27):
It's her.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
But if you don't know what that is. If you're
not in cheerland, which I was not until she became
a cheerleader. It's going up on top letting the.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
Girls standing on tops called.

Speaker 2 (38:39):
I don't know why, it's called prepp.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
The two base bases are holding Phoebe's feet near their
chin at chest level, and Phoebe's just standing and she's
standing up.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
There and she's doing that anyway, anyway, she conquered it recently.
She really wanted to do it, and from the first
time she actually did successfully in practice, she's been waiting
and waiting, waiting to do it. Now we go to
most of her most of the game into the basketball
games where she cheers. And so the other night, Taylor
was at a rehearsal for a place she's doing it

(39:06):
her school. It was a long, long day. We decide.
I even told her said Phoebe, we're not gonna come
to the come tonight that if that's okay with you,
And she's like, oh, yeah, that's fine. So we're sitting
at home watching Stranger Things, the final episode. We're sitting
there watching the last one like this is so good
and this is so awesome, and we're gonna go pick

(39:29):
up the girls in a minute, and I get a
text from a dear friend who sent me a picture
of Phoebe on top doing prep in front of the
whole school in basketball game. I felt like the biggest
loser parent for not being well.

Speaker 8 (39:42):
Judi fuzz I thought something was wrong with a family
member or something like oh no, oh no, like oh wow,
that's cool, Oh wait, we were for that.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
But let me tell you. When we did pick her
up after the game, she's like, mom, we didn't plan it.
It was last minute. They asked me if I wanted to.
I said yes, and she ended up doing it three
times that night.

Speaker 8 (40:02):
So I had a videos and honestly, I think, possibly
this is not rationalization, but you know what, maybe us
not being there didn't put the pressure on her and
she was more comfortable to do that.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
That's true, that's true.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
Yeah, I would.

Speaker 5 (40:15):
I would.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
That would be my first thought.

Speaker 3 (40:17):
I know that always messes up kids, especially when you're
teaching cheer camp. The final day when the parents show up,
that's when they just it's like their first day ever.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Why, I guess because you want to please nobody more
than your parents anyway, So proud of her, We'll I feel.

Speaker 8 (40:30):
Better than I don't feel like a bad parent so much.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
We'll post a picture at Murphy Salmon Jeddie dot com
on our Facebook page this morning.

Speaker 10 (40:38):
It is new and you can eat it.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Sam's found it.

Speaker 6 (40:41):
He's the food dude, one of the sure our number
of sure signs that it's fall here in America. We
got the uh Starbucks Christmas cups. You know, yes, all
the decorations are on the shelves at all your favorite stores.

Speaker 5 (40:52):
And I started some of the stories back in August.

Speaker 6 (40:54):
Yeah and uh Walmot. But McDonald's has rolled out to
make rib once again this year.

Speaker 5 (41:00):
Okay, and that's this time.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
I always yeah, I always get lost in it. I
know that it's only done occasionally, but I never remember
what time of year.

Speaker 6 (41:07):
It's like a permanent, limited edition thing. They roll it
out every year in the fall, late in the fall.
Now all McDonald's don't have it right now because it
kind of makes its way across the country and they
really don't. Like in the old days, I used to say,
mcgrib is kind of back, but now it just kind
of shows up on the menu and it's all over
social media. Hey, the McRib is back. Yeah, So mcgrib.

(41:27):
If you don't have it in your McDonald's right now,
over the next week or suit two, you're going to
see it roll out there. But get it while you
can if you're a McRib fan, because it's going to
go away again.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Question is you guys going to get one?

Speaker 5 (41:38):
Do you know what?

Speaker 2 (41:39):
I don't do that.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
I've made it a somewhat annual pill pilgrimage I've had.

Speaker 6 (41:43):
I've had a few of them and it's like, yeah, okay,
I get what's going on.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Do it once a year.

Speaker 5 (41:47):
Can remember our former producer Drew used to get them
all the time.

Speaker 2 (41:52):
Mcgrib.

Speaker 6 (41:53):
I'm still a quarter pounder man myself.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
You guys ready for America's longest married couple, All bring
their relationship advice. Eighty five years they've been married. How
do you like that? John is one hundred and four
years old and Anne is one hundred years old.

Speaker 5 (42:11):
Woow.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
They met and married during the Great Depression. And it's
simple answers because they had this party recently their eighty
fifth wedding anniversary, but they didn't want to go way
deep into it, so it's simple answers for her. She says,
she thinks you have to like a person before you
love them. Ah, that's the whole friendship thing. So true.

(42:35):
And she said for her, for her joy, the joy
of children and family, she feels added to her life,
meaning she enjoyed having children in a family. It was
the highlight of her life. And I think a lot
of families would tell you that would agree with that sense.
That's what she had to say. John had to say
that his life with Anne has been two things natural

(43:01):
his marriage natural and understanding, meaning they have a lot
of understanding of each other and it's just comfortable. It
sounds like to me natural being with her.

Speaker 1 (43:12):
Nothing too complicated about that. No, he would be if
my grandmother was still alive, she would be one hundred four.
So that's that generation nice. But you know, I love
that his wife said what she said about being friends first.
That's really what she's saying. When you like someone, you
have to like somebody too, not being friends first, because
if you don't have that, it's very difficult to build
the foundation. The little spark can be the thing that

(43:32):
brings you together, but you really do have to have
that bond.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Yeah. I think a lot of people will bring that
up because let's just be honest, in day to day
life with somebody, you're going to not like them sometimes, yeah,
but you still love them.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
Although that's the exception of the rule. For me and Jody,
she loves me all the time.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
I do love you all the time. Yeah, that's what
we're saying.

Speaker 6 (43:52):
I know that you can say that this couple have
anything to say about getting in fights.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
And you know, no, they didn't have anything to say
about that, just that it's very natural and understanding, like
the understanding like letting somebody be who they are, letting
somebody be in a bad mood, that kind of thing.
That's all they had to say. But I just love that,
And they just celebrated eighty five.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
By the time you're in your hundreds, I mean, look,
by the time you're in your seventies and eighties, you've
begun to kind of accept and a better perspective of life.
By the time, what are we going to fight about, right,
