Oh my god?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
In terms of what like the utensils?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Is this something that keeps you up at night?
Speaker 4 (01:39):

Speaker 4 (02:03):
Hey, this is this is advance.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't know which one it? Oh I found it?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
No, no, not, there is no advance. There is no advance.
There's no advanced conversation. All you know is it's dinners
on Friday night. It's now Friday morning, and you just
find out Marie is on a feeding too.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
I'm having a conversation and no, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Not giving you that option.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
How are you setting the table where Maria is gonna
sit like everybody else's You're gonna put out a fork
and a spoon and a knife, maybe even a chaser.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
You don't have to use it the You mean a charger.
What did I say, chaser?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Oh no, a charger the plate.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yeah, you may already have like a bowl out there
for a salad or.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Sutting everything out to make everything.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Just so that she can push it all away to
put her shake right there.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
It's uniform, and then I'll give her an.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Honestly, like inviting Kristen and mic over this week, only
this week.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
What are you supposed to do? Does she need to
be near and out? What ask Kelsey? What are you
supposed to do? I think what is protocol?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I think Diane's right.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
No, I think that's jog.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You don't call attention.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
You know what calls attention the tube?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
But oh, she's not using the tube at the table.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Oh so when she sits down to eat, she just
kind of crosses her arms and looks at everybody.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
You want to do whatever it is that makes them
the most comfortable.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
So have the chair reclined so that the tube that
goes into the nose, and I know it's staple to
the forehead, it just kind of sits there a little
more easily. Ellie, Can I ask this though? Is the
surgical tape is the only No? Not the person. Uh,
I've seen it where they stable, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
That's usually when they're unconscious.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
No, this person was awake.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
They got the feeding tube put in when they were
unconscious and they stabled it to the forehead. Are all
feeding tubes nasal? No, So some of them go down
the throat. I thought some could go directly to the stomach.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Ew.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Sorry, sorry, there's that making them feel comfortable?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
So this was it, this silverware and the flat that
this was just about you being disgusted.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Wait, so they just sit I don't know that I've
ever seen one that just goes right to the stomach.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
So they do. That's in a more dire situation in
a hospital.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
So they just sit at the table with like they're
wheeling of shake and it just kind of goes right.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
I don't know. Can we please get someone on the
line who has more experience with this?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
No, but nobody on a feeding tube is gonna call
me right now.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Wh they could go to a party you can.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Call to be honest, I'm talking about somebody who's dealt
with something like this. Maybe not how to prepare the
table or set the table, but just the ins and
outs of the feet of.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
A feeding tob.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yes, if you like, if you have a feeding tube
and you go to a restaurant, you know, like sometimes
like the waitress will come over and if everybody orders
a cocktail, they take away the wine glass or something.
If they if they sit down and may see that
you've got your really shake going in, they just take everything.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Like I'd even take the napkin. Where are you spilling?
Speaker 1 (05:32):
You're oh, you got on your tummy.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
This is not going to end well.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Now that's why I don't think you leave their plates.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
But back to the placement of the two oh yeah,
which you asked about.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Oh, I don't know if this.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Is a short term feeding tube. Is that person coming
to the dinner you should No?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I would no, I absolutely.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
I bet a lot of people just respectfully decline, Oh,
I'm sorry, I've got something else that evening.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Well, that's that's horrible dinner at home.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
No, i'd rat oh another shake. No, I would rather
go be around whatever it's for.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
But you're talking about someone who still has it stapled
to their head. Well, someone who's been in some major
major trauma.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Okay, so so it goes down my throat, So what
is it like just stick out of my throat like
it's a long tongue.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Again, I would think that the person who's fund and
about is directly into the stomach, hidden by the That
is the worst.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
What as opposed to being in your nose or your mouth.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
At least if it's in your mouth you could taste it. Well, No,
I guess it still goes into two. I guess you're
not tasting it. Oh no, if I had to see
it in your mouth, I'd be like, how do you
swallow with that?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Very unsatisfied?
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yeah, no, that's a problem. And then what's the delivery system?
What do you mean you're just talking about the placement
of the.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Own I'm not giving you old shape, My.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
God, I'm not talking about who's preparing it.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Hey, I threw the turkey and a cup of water
in a food process or can get down the tube.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Keep in mind, if you weren't with us five minutes ago,
if this started with a thoughtful I would use best
to describe it. It's thoughtful question.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And I still have that question.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I think now it's devolved into something a little bit
more rude.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
No, it's not rude. People deal with this every day.
Please don't see me next time.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
Oh, now, you don't want to be seated next to
that person.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
So you can have a bag and a pump the oo.
You can have a a gravity bag.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Oh that's like like some smokers have like gravity pellets
and stuff like that, where like it burns and it
falls down and you can hear it go crank clunk.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Clank, So like when they're done with like their appetite.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Or shake, you hear gounk and then you get to
the main meal.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Shake.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Now you from what you just said a moment ago
would require the person to bring for the gravity bag
their own ivy.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Poll Why hey, I can hang it from like a
curtain rod or something like that.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
God, it's like eating with a lefty. And then you
can just have a feeding syringe. What is that a
connector or valve to regulate the feedings. It goes right
into your tube, sending the formula into the body the bag.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
So is that like if you have a port you
just put it right in the bag.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Of pump that we first listen is a continuous feeding.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Like, so I guess we'll wait till everybody's done to
have dessert.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Stop eating.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Mari will never be done.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
At this point, you'd have to understand if someone is
hesitant to call.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
In, why would you be hesitant to call in?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Just don't sound super understanding.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I am the most empathetic person.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
In This is weird because this started discussing accommodations.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Okay, but now I'm educating myself that one day, God willing,
I run into somebody, I run into this problem.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I though how they want to be treated.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I've at most people who are on a feeding tube
can attend a social event and no one would ever know.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
B as zero chance. Let's see play the food play
the food play, the food play, the food nothing play
of food? And that did anybody notice?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Whoa?
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Everybody's eating? What at that?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Oh? The conversation got quiet. Why is Marie the only
one talking?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Anybody notice?
Speaker 6 (09:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Because she never takes a bite.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Oh, you're standing on my cord found them cord?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yes, answered what your own original question? And it was
Diane's thought too. For the person who's also attending, who's
counting plates? Yeah, everyone gets a plate?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
No? No, because I look around and I go, oh,
what are.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
They eating What are they eating salmon?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I guess you're eating air over there. I was just looking,
go what are you sick?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yes? Actually I am, oh boy.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Or just dude, get on ozembic, like you can still
eat and lose the weight.
Speaker 2 (10:38):

This is Amy?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Amy. I don't even know at this point what you're
calling about.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
I actually had a dinner party at my house and
the south of my coworker had throat cancer and was
radiation and didn't eat food. He had a stomach feeding tube,
and I had the same panic. I thought, oh my god, yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Wait wait, so hold on, So was he was was
if his was temporary? Was it like staple to his forehead?
Speaker 7 (11:15):
No, he had a tube directly the stomach. You actually
could didn't even know, Like he just looked like a
normal person and like he didn't have a tracyotomy or anything.
Speaker 8 (11:25):
He just looked like a normal person.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
He just couldn't eat any food because of his throat
cancer at the time.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
But couldn't you know he had a tube that was like,
for example, under his shirt. I'm sure for example, yeah,
it's under your under there, But like, for example, freaking rude.
So did he just go sit in the living room
while everybody else is there, or did he just kind
of kick back with his arms crossed and be like, hey,
(11:52):
it's good.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
None, he just sat and I I didn't know what
to do with the table because I didn't know about
the food either.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
So I sat at.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Dinner plate and a and a glass because I didn't
know if he was gonna if he could even drink water,
or so I just sat at dinner plate at a
glass and he didn't use anything, and we just he
just sat and enjoyed the conversation while we were all eating.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
When dinner was over, did you just put it right
back in the cabinet or did you wash it? No?
Speaker 7 (12:21):
I put it right back in the cabinet.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Would have told him, Hey, Hank, I noticed you didn't
eat right back in the counter.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Oh all right, all right, very good, very good. Well
there's your answer. But she did it because she was scared.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I don't know, Iris says, blender on the table like
a neutral bullet experience.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Oh wait, hold on Elliott's blendings.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Diane, you know better than him, Hi, Elliott in the morning,
or do you blend everybody's food. Like everybody has a shake,
I'll shake everybody has a shake.

Oh so they went in through there? Did they remove
part of your tongue? No?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Beautiful, happy to hear it. Hey, so you had you
had a feeding tube into your stomach?
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Yes, right under, right under the where where the rib
change comes together, right at that little pointy bone right
for your stomach against Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Hey, So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
If you had to go to dinner, would do you
want somebody to put a plate out for you or
is it just blender on the table.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Well, I couldn't. I couldn't do the blender. I had
supplements that I just pour into the.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Tube like an insurer almost right, Oh, so like a
shake yeah.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yeah, yeah yeah, but it had all the new shirts
and stuff like that. I couldn't. They didn't want me
to put anything down the tube from a blender because
in my blog tube right.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Trust me, I know that feeling. Hey, what is and
you can't taste anything? Right?
Speaker 6 (14:43):
No? No, no, it's I didn't take anything oldly.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
For a year. Could you imagine you go a year
without tasting buffalo sauce?
Speaker 6 (14:54):
No?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Seriously, what was the thing?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I wonder what what did you miss the most?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Like?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
What what type of food tasting?
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Just about everything? And what was really bad? I live
in the Four Corners area of Colorado and we have
swamp coolers, which is basically just a big barsh on
your roof and water and a fan and the blows
that pulled air. And I had a dairy queen and
(15:23):
a restaurant across a pretty fancy restaurant across the street.
So in the summertime, my swamp cooler is stucking that grilled.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Hamburger, you know? And yeah, yeah, exactly, Hey, what was
the once once you got the two about, what's the
first thing you ate?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Or is it like you got to start with like
rice and white bread.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Well I had I had to take some before they
took it out. I hadn't proved that I can swallow property.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
So it's just liquids.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
And hey, let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
So you're you're going to a dinner party, right, you're
going to a dinner party.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
What do you want? Like, do you want me to
have anything on the table for you?
Speaker 6 (16:11):
I don't. It wouldn't matter. That was around people who
are eating anyways, and yeah, no, I.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Mean listen, we're still eating. But it's just the like
from the court. Thank hey, thank you sir, thank you.
Are you still out in the four Corners area?
Speaker 6 (16:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Oh awesome, awesome, Hey, I appreciate the phone call, Thank
you sir.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
But you would still feel like you want And maybe
he's right.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Maybe the person with the tube is like, I don't
give a fly an f It doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yes, Ben Right's my mom had her stomach removed and
she would quote unquote eat at night when she slept.
That's when her feeding tube was in her nose.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So what did she do, Like if they went out
to a restaurant, she just sit there.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
I can you can you're not going. I I've been
around you. When you eat, you chat it up quite
a bit and don't even care if there's food in
your mouth. You can still be part of the conversation.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Yeah, I know, but it's just awkward that you're not
part of like everything that's good, Like part of the
conversation is the.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
How good the food is?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Well, no, not even that, because sometimes the food isn't good,
but like the ebb and flow of like I'm talking
and now I stop so I can't eat, so that
Diana will go, like Marie hasn't shut up yet, Like
it's just NonStop. It just feels like you would be
out of your regular function. Or maybe I'm supposed to pretend.
I don't even notice.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
We already heard you count plates Tom with what might
be the most practical but the I think the meanest
of the suggestions. Instead of awkwardly having to place these
between guests around the corners of the table, can you
just use the feeding to persons place mat for all
the serving dishes.
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Oh, it's like a trivit.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well you know what, you always know where when it
makes its way around the table, it just stops in
front of Marie.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
No, burns on my table.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Let me go to line eight.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Hi, Ellie in the morning. By the way, a lot
of people who have had feeding tubes. I'm sorry, Hi,
who is this? Hey?
Speaker 8 (18:09):
This is Colin, your local truck driver.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Hey, what's going on in Colin? Not much?
Speaker 8 (18:14):
I had a feeding tube in for a year and
a half for a freshman and sophomore year of high school.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
High school.
Speaker 8 (18:21):
Yeah, ooh, I give you this lineup. I was fourteen
and I weighed seventy eight and a half pounds.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Oh my god, you're barely the size of like a
like a duty What is the correct?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Why did you?
Speaker 8 (18:34):
Can?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
I ask why? Cancer?
Speaker 8 (18:37):
I had chromes of these? That was in the early
stages of me finding out I had chroms of these.
Not to dust all some cobwebs on this. I actually
called about ten years ago in relation to all this,
and I.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Don't even remember yesterday.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Well, correct, I had an issue with chromes and I
did number two out the front twice. I don't know
if that that dust salt the cob web, no.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
But I'm sure I laughed and too, Jesus so did
they just had so?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Did they have a tube that went into the stomach
and then write out the ass no.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
No, no.
Speaker 8 (19:09):
In my situation, I had a nasal feeding tube, so
it was in.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Every three weeks stapled.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Did you go to school with a staple feeding tube
down your nose?
Speaker 8 (19:20):
It wasn't stapled. It was just like little little double
sided scotch tape, if you will. But yeah, I was
in my fourth yet all the attention you best, The
girls were all attracted to youth.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Great, Hey, what was the best nickname you got?
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Come on, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
The Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
That's what you got out of that?
Speaker 4 (19:47):
You are you are desperate to veer away to a
different topic.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
It was so so what did you like?
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So what did you do? Like if you had like
a family thing you had to go, you did nothing.
You just sat there with a tube in your nose.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
My situation home, I was like Tyler was saying, I
got sped at night about three thousand calories pretty much
just high protein, high calorie shape. And during the day
I could still eat normally. I didn't really have much
of an appetite just because when I was in the hospital,
I didn't feed me for a month.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Oh, you were still able to eat, so you could
go to like a dinner party and at least nibble
on something.
Speaker 6 (20:24):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
I would eat anything I could still eat if I
had the appetite for it.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Right, I got youa unfortunately different issue. How do you
clean the chair that the guy just crapped in at
a dinner party?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah? All right, very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, sir.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Yeah, our sea rights a bit different scenario as well.
But when your jaw is wired shut?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Oh wait, two things, two things. Number one right down,
truck driver. He just said he was a truck driver.
That reminded me of something jaw wired shut.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Go ahead.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Meals do have to be blended and you suck them
all through a straw, so you wouldn't need a plate.
I'm assuming that's what Arcia is saying, or any silverware
for that set up either.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Who did I just read? Oh?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I think it was when Dylan Strom got his teeth
knocked out.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I think he was.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
His jaw wasn't wired shut, but I think he was
all liquids for a little bit, and he was like
it was really hard. I mean, think about how much
of those guys are burning that. It was really hard
to keep up with his with his nutrition while he
was on liquid diet.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
I bet it was super difficult.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, but you know what, like no see, but having
your jaw wired that's so temporary.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Number one.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Number two, that would suck. I mean it sucks that
if least people know, like if you show up, they
would have heard, like what's wrong and you go like, oh,
I broke my jaw. Just drink everything, and then all
of a sudden you become a topic of conversation and
hopefully you don't talk a lot during the dinner, but.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
At least maybe they al But as opposed to just.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Maurice just sitting there with no explanation and not saying anything.
At least Mike's got the tube down his nose, I
could at least see.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
But this is again the short term long term. You
said that a jaw would be short term if a
feeding tube is going to be in use for a
long period of.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Time and I want it into my stomach.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
But everyone would probably kind of know, or.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
You don't know your co worker like for example, for example, okay.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Wouldn't your coworker at some point keep you up to
date on their partners no issues.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Here's here's what here's what I'm going to say, right,
So the there was at the end of the year.
At the end of the year, there was a dinner
we all went and Aaron Hyland went and.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
His wife went. Have you ever spent any time with
Aaron Hyland's wife?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now I may know that she's on a feeding tube,
But you didn't go to this dinner.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yes you did.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
It wasn't at the end of the year. It was
in like September.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Oh yeah, okay, oh I'm sorry. Is that the beginning
of the year.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
No, but when you say in December?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Yeah, no, no, but you thought you did a holiday dinner?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
No no, no, but you the no, no, we're talking
about the same dinner.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
God who hosted it, Roach the.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
Gregory the But you know, but you wouldn't have known
whether whether Aaron's wife was on a feeding tube or not. Yes, yeah,
you're right right if she walked in and was like
and had a had staple? Are you just talked to
a guy who did the staple in high school.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Which Tyler loves the same thing.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
You think higher high school?
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Do you think everybody at the high school was like, well,
I don't have anything to say to him.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
He's got double sided tape.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
No, everybody made fun of him because of the hose
in his nose, not because of the tape versus the staples.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
It's the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
And if you didn't have one of the staplers, that
would unhinge.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Hey, sweet Fain, why don't you put it under the skin.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
If you're putting a band poster, it.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Could get it in The margins were so restricted.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
But that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
You wouldn't necessarily know that somebody is on a feeding tube,
even if it's a close co worker.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
But wouldn't Aaron give you a heads up?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He may have, I may know, and you're not telling us.
I would have told you in Gossip off the air.
But there's a part of me that would also go, hey,
I just found this out. Watch Diane get uncomfortable.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
I have gossip. I would have sprinted back from Sean's
handing Aaron. I gotta get backed
You are in charge of hosting a dinner party, okay, right,
And well, I don't I don't like saying party. You're
in charge of hosting a dinner at your house. I
don't know why you would. But it's not like you're
in charge of hosting a dinner and it's it's kind
of a nice dinner, right, It's not just like.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hey, everybody come over and let's have some pizza.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
So, but you're in charge of hosting a dinner and
there's gonna be ten to fifteen of you at this
at this dinner.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Doesn't matter who the attendees are, family, friends, co workers.
Do we care?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
I'm gonna say not family, maybe friends, co workers. Maybe
there's spouses or you know, like coworkers, okay, co workers,
all right, I guess it could be a friend whatever.
But there's gonna be there's gonna be fifteen, twenty of you,
(00:55):
whatever the case is. And it's it's more formal than hey, everybody,
just grab a slice of pizza or.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
We just made some wings. You're gonna sit down and
you're gonna eat.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Okay, Now, you're getting everything ready and you want it
to look nice and you want it to be nice right,
you find out leading up to the dinner party that
one of the attendees, so it could be a spouse
of somebody if you didn't know, or whatever is on
(01:24):
a feeding tube? Okay, what do you put it where
they're sitting?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Oh my god?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
In terms of what like the utensils?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Is this something that keeps you up at night?
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Or yeah, what an odd thing? I mean.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
I would have a I would have a text conversation.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
No no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What are you doing
at where they're gonna sit?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Don't say well, I'm gonna send a text and find
out it?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah, I think you ask No, what are so when
they walk in the door, No, say.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Hey, this is this is advance.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't know which one it? Oh I found it?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
No, no, not, there is no advance. There is no advance.
There's no advanced conversation. All you know is it's dinners
on Friday night. It's now Friday morning, and you just
find out Marie is on a feeding too.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
I'm having a conversation and no, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Not giving you that option.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
How are you setting the table where Maria is gonna
sit like everybody else's You're gonna put out a fork
and a spoon and a knife, maybe even a chaser.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
You don't have to use it the You mean a charger.
What did I say, chaser?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Oh no, a charger the plate.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yeah, you may already have like a bowl out there
for a salad or.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Sutting everything out to make everything.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Just so that she can push it all away to
put her shake right there.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
It's uniform, and then I'll give her an.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Honestly, like inviting Kristen and mic over this week, only
this week.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
What are you supposed to do? Does she need to
be near and out? What ask Kelsey? What are you
supposed to do? I think what is protocol?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I think Diane's right.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
No, I think that's jog.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You don't call attention.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
You know what calls attention the tube?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
But oh, she's not using the tube at the table.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Oh so when she sits down to eat, she just
kind of crosses her arms and looks at everybody.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
You want to do whatever it is that makes them
the most comfortable.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
So have the chair reclined so that the tube that
goes into the nose, and I know it's staple to
the forehead, it just kind of sits there a little
more easily. Ellie, Can I ask this though? Is the
surgical tape is the only No? Not the person. Uh,
I've seen it where they stable, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
That's usually when they're unconscious.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
No, this person was awake.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
They got the feeding tube put in when they were
unconscious and they stabled it to the forehead. Are all
feeding tubes nasal? No, So some of them go down
the throat. I thought some could go directly to the stomach.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Ew.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Sorry, sorry, there's that making them feel comfortable?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
So this was it, this silverware and the flat that
this was just about you being disgusted.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Wait, so they just sit I don't know that I've
ever seen one that just goes right to the stomach.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
So they do. That's in a more dire situation in
a hospital.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
So they just sit at the table with like they're
wheeling of shake and it just kind of goes right.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
I don't know. Can we please get someone on the
line who has more experience with this?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
No, but nobody on a feeding tube is gonna call
me right now.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Wh they could go to a party you can.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Call to be honest, I'm talking about somebody who's dealt
with something like this. Maybe not how to prepare the
table or set the table, but just the ins and
outs of the feet of.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
A feeding tob.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yes, if you like, if you have a feeding tube
and you go to a restaurant, you know, like sometimes
like the waitress will come over and if everybody orders
a cocktail, they take away the wine glass or something.
If they if they sit down and may see that
you've got your really shake going in, they just take everything.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Like I'd even take the napkin. Where are you spilling?
Speaker 1 (05:32):
You're oh, you got on your tummy.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
This is not going to end well.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Now that's why I don't think you leave their plates.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
But back to the placement of the two oh yeah,
which you asked about.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Oh, I don't know if this.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Is a short term feeding tube. Is that person coming
to the dinner you should No?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I would no, I absolutely.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
I bet a lot of people just respectfully decline, Oh,
I'm sorry, I've got something else that evening.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Well, that's that's horrible dinner at home.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
No, i'd rat oh another shake. No, I would rather
go be around whatever it's for.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
But you're talking about someone who still has it stapled
to their head. Well, someone who's been in some major
major trauma.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Okay, so so it goes down my throat, So what
is it like just stick out of my throat like
it's a long tongue.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Again, I would think that the person who's fund and
about is directly into the stomach, hidden by the That
is the worst.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
What as opposed to being in your nose or your mouth.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
At least if it's in your mouth you could taste it. Well, No,
I guess it still goes into two. I guess you're
not tasting it. Oh no, if I had to see
it in your mouth, I'd be like, how do you
swallow with that?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Very unsatisfied?
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yeah, no, that's a problem. And then what's the delivery system?
What do you mean you're just talking about the placement
of the.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Own I'm not giving you old shape, My.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
God, I'm not talking about who's preparing it.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Hey, I threw the turkey and a cup of water
in a food process or can get down the tube.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Keep in mind, if you weren't with us five minutes ago,
if this started with a thoughtful I would use best
to describe it. It's thoughtful question.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And I still have that question.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I think now it's devolved into something a little bit
more rude.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
No, it's not rude. People deal with this every day.
Please don't see me next time.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
Oh, now, you don't want to be seated next to
that person.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
So you can have a bag and a pump the oo.
You can have a a gravity bag.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Oh that's like like some smokers have like gravity pellets
and stuff like that, where like it burns and it
falls down and you can hear it go crank clunk.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Clank, So like when they're done with like their appetite.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Or shake, you hear gounk and then you get to
the main meal.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Shake.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Now you from what you just said a moment ago
would require the person to bring for the gravity bag
their own ivy.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Poll Why hey, I can hang it from like a
curtain rod or something like that.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
God, it's like eating with a lefty. And then you
can just have a feeding syringe. What is that a
connector or valve to regulate the feedings. It goes right
into your tube, sending the formula into the body the bag.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
So is that like if you have a port you
just put it right in the bag.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Of pump that we first listen is a continuous feeding.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Like, so I guess we'll wait till everybody's done to
have dessert.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Stop eating.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Mari will never be done.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
At this point, you'd have to understand if someone is
hesitant to call.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
In, why would you be hesitant to call in?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Just don't sound super understanding.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I am the most empathetic person.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
In This is weird because this started discussing accommodations.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Okay, but now I'm educating myself that one day, God willing,
I run into somebody, I run into this problem.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I though how they want to be treated.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I've at most people who are on a feeding tube
can attend a social event and no one would ever know.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
B as zero chance. Let's see play the food play
the food play, the food play, the food nothing play
of food? And that did anybody notice?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Whoa?
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Everybody's eating? What at that?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Oh? The conversation got quiet. Why is Marie the only
one talking?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Anybody notice?
Speaker 6 (09:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Because she never takes a bite.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Oh, you're standing on my cord found them cord?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Yes, answered what your own original question? And it was
Diane's thought too. For the person who's also attending, who's
counting plates? Yeah, everyone gets a plate?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
No? No, because I look around and I go, oh,
what are.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
They eating What are they eating salmon?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I guess you're eating air over there. I was just looking,
go what are you sick?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yes? Actually I am, oh boy.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Or just dude, get on ozembic, like you can still
eat and lose the weight.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Where am I going? Line?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Fo?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Hi Elliott the morning? Hello? Hi? Who's this?
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (10:45):
This is Amy?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Amy. I don't even know at this point what you're
calling about.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
I actually had a dinner party at my house and
the south of my coworker had throat cancer and was
radiation and didn't eat food. He had a stomach feeding tube,
and I had the same panic. I thought, oh my god, yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Wait wait, so hold on, So was he was was
if his was temporary? Was it like staple to his forehead?
Speaker 7 (11:15):
No, he had a tube directly the stomach. You actually
could didn't even know, Like he just looked like a
normal person and like he didn't have a tracyotomy or anything.
Speaker 8 (11:25):
He just looked like a normal person.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
He just couldn't eat any food because of his throat
cancer at the time.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
But couldn't you know he had a tube that was like,
for example, under his shirt. I'm sure for example, yeah,
it's under your under there, But like, for example, freaking rude.
So did he just go sit in the living room
while everybody else is there, or did he just kind
of kick back with his arms crossed and be like, hey,
(11:52):
it's good.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
None, he just sat and I I didn't know what
to do with the table because I didn't know about
the food either.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
So I sat at.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Dinner plate and a and a glass because I didn't
know if he was gonna if he could even drink water,
or so I just sat at dinner plate at a
glass and he didn't use anything, and we just he
just sat and enjoyed the conversation while we were all eating.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
When dinner was over, did you just put it right
back in the cabinet or did you wash it? No?
Speaker 7 (12:21):
I put it right back in the cabinet.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Would have told him, Hey, Hank, I noticed you didn't
eat right back in the counter.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Oh all right, all right, very good, very good. Well
there's your answer. But she did it because she was scared.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I don't know, Iris says, blender on the table like
a neutral bullet experience.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Oh wait, hold on Elliott's blendings.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Diane, you know better than him, Hi, Elliott in the morning,
or do you blend everybody's food. Like everybody has a shake,
I'll shake everybody has a shake.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Hello, Hello, Hello, yeah, Hi, who's this?

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Yes, Ed? What can I do for you?
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Yeah? I've had a beaten tube for what I had
cancer on the base of my tongue, so I couldn't
eat anything for a year. Oh yeah, and uh I
got an extra belly button.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Oh so they went in through there? Did they remove
part of your tongue? No?
Speaker 6 (13:36):
No, no, I didn't have to have any surgery, just uh,
real radiation and a little bit of chemo.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Gotcha good and you're you're you're fine now obviously you're calling.
Speaker 6 (13:45):

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Beautiful, happy to hear it. Hey, so you had you
had a feeding tube into your stomach?
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Yes, right under, right under the where where the rib
change comes together, right at that little pointy bone right
for your stomach against Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Hey, So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
If you had to go to dinner, would do you
want somebody to put a plate out for you or
is it just blender on the table.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Well, I couldn't. I couldn't do the blender. I had
supplements that I just pour into the.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Tube like an insurer almost right, Oh, so like a
shake yeah.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yeah, yeah yeah, but it had all the new shirts
and stuff like that. I couldn't. They didn't want me
to put anything down the tube from a blender because
in my blog tube right.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Trust me, I know that feeling. Hey, what is and
you can't taste anything? Right?
Speaker 6 (14:43):
No? No, no, it's I didn't take anything oldly.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
For a year. Could you imagine you go a year
without tasting buffalo sauce?
Speaker 6 (14:54):
No?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Seriously, what was the thing?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I wonder what what did you miss the most?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Like?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
What what type of food tasting?
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Just about everything? And what was really bad? I live
in the Four Corners area of Colorado and we have
swamp coolers, which is basically just a big barsh on
your roof and water and a fan and the blows
that pulled air. And I had a dairy queen and
(15:23):
a restaurant across a pretty fancy restaurant across the street.
So in the summertime, my swamp cooler is stucking that grilled.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Hamburger, you know? And yeah, yeah, exactly, Hey, what was
the once once you got the two about, what's the
first thing you ate?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Or is it like you got to start with like
rice and white bread.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Well I had I had to take some before they
took it out. I hadn't proved that I can swallow property.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
So it's just liquids.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
And hey, let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
So you're you're going to a dinner party, right, you're
going to a dinner party.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
What do you want? Like, do you want me to
have anything on the table for you?
Speaker 6 (16:11):
I don't. It wouldn't matter. That was around people who
are eating anyways, and yeah, no, I.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Mean listen, we're still eating. But it's just the like
from the court. Thank hey, thank you sir, thank you.
Are you still out in the four Corners area?
Speaker 6 (16:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Oh awesome, awesome, Hey, I appreciate the phone call, Thank
you sir.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
But you would still feel like you want And maybe
he's right.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Maybe the person with the tube is like, I don't
give a fly an f It doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yes, Ben Right's my mom had her stomach removed and
she would quote unquote eat at night when she slept.
That's when her feeding tube was in her nose.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So what did she do, Like if they went out
to a restaurant, she just sit there.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
I can you can you're not going. I I've been
around you. When you eat, you chat it up quite
a bit and don't even care if there's food in
your mouth. You can still be part of the conversation.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Yeah, I know, but it's just awkward that you're not
part of like everything that's good, Like part of the
conversation is the.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
How good the food is?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Well, no, not even that, because sometimes the food isn't good,
but like the ebb and flow of like I'm talking
and now I stop so I can't eat, so that
Diana will go, like Marie hasn't shut up yet, Like
it's just NonStop. It just feels like you would be
out of your regular function. Or maybe I'm supposed to pretend.
I don't even notice.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
We already heard you count plates Tom with what might
be the most practical but the I think the meanest
of the suggestions. Instead of awkwardly having to place these
between guests around the corners of the table, can you
just use the feeding to persons place mat for all
the serving dishes.
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Oh, it's like a trivit.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well you know what, you always know where when it
makes its way around the table, it just stops in
front of Marie.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
No, burns on my table.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Let me go to line eight.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Hi, Ellie in the morning. By the way, a lot
of people who have had feeding tubes. I'm sorry, Hi,
who is this? Hey?
Speaker 8 (18:09):
This is Colin, your local truck driver.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Hey, what's going on in Colin? Not much?
Speaker 8 (18:14):
I had a feeding tube in for a year and
a half for a freshman and sophomore year of high school.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
High school.
Speaker 8 (18:21):
Yeah, ooh, I give you this lineup. I was fourteen
and I weighed seventy eight and a half pounds.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Oh my god, you're barely the size of like a
like a duty What is the correct?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Why did you?
Speaker 8 (18:34):
Can?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
I ask why? Cancer?
Speaker 8 (18:37):
I had chromes of these? That was in the early
stages of me finding out I had chroms of these.
Not to dust all some cobwebs on this. I actually
called about ten years ago in relation to all this,
and I.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Don't even remember yesterday.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Well, correct, I had an issue with chromes and I
did number two out the front twice. I don't know
if that that dust salt the cob web, no.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
But I'm sure I laughed and too, Jesus so did
they just had so?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Did they have a tube that went into the stomach
and then write out the ass no.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
No, no.
Speaker 8 (19:09):
In my situation, I had a nasal feeding tube, so
it was in.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Every three weeks stapled.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Did you go to school with a staple feeding tube
down your nose?
Speaker 8 (19:20):
It wasn't stapled. It was just like little little double
sided scotch tape, if you will. But yeah, I was
in my fourth yet all the attention you best, The
girls were all attracted to youth.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Great, Hey, what was the best nickname you got?
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Come on, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
The Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
That's what you got out of that?
Speaker 4 (19:47):
You are you are desperate to veer away to a
different topic.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
It was so so what did you like?
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So what did you do? Like if you had like
a family thing you had to go, you did nothing.
You just sat there with a tube in your nose.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
My situation home, I was like Tyler was saying, I
got sped at night about three thousand calories pretty much
just high protein, high calorie shape. And during the day
I could still eat normally. I didn't really have much
of an appetite just because when I was in the hospital,
I didn't feed me for a month.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Oh, you were still able to eat, so you could
go to like a dinner party and at least nibble
on something.
Speaker 6 (20:24):
Oh.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
I would eat anything I could still eat if I
had the appetite for it.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Right, I got youa unfortunately different issue. How do you
clean the chair that the guy just crapped in at
a dinner party?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah? All right, very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, sir.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Yeah, our sea rights a bit different scenario as well.
But when your jaw is wired shut?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Oh wait, two things, two things. Number one right down,
truck driver. He just said he was a truck driver.
That reminded me of something jaw wired shut.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Go ahead.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Meals do have to be blended and you suck them
all through a straw, so you wouldn't need a plate.
I'm assuming that's what Arcia is saying, or any silverware
for that set up either.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Who did I just read? Oh?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I think it was when Dylan Strom got his teeth
knocked out.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I think he was.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
His jaw wasn't wired shut, but I think he was
all liquids for a little bit, and he was like
it was really hard. I mean, think about how much
of those guys are burning that. It was really hard
to keep up with his with his nutrition while he
was on liquid diet.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
I bet it was super difficult.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, but you know what, like no see, but having
your jaw wired that's so temporary.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Number one.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Number two, that would suck. I mean it sucks that
if least people know, like if you show up, they
would have heard, like what's wrong and you go like, oh,
I broke my jaw. Just drink everything, and then all
of a sudden you become a topic of conversation and
hopefully you don't talk a lot during the dinner, but.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
At least maybe they al But as opposed to just.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Maurice just sitting there with no explanation and not saying anything.
At least Mike's got the tube down his nose, I
could at least see.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
But this is again the short term long term. You
said that a jaw would be short term if a
feeding tube is going to be in use for a
long period of.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Time and I want it into my stomach.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
But everyone would probably kind of know, or.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
You don't know your co worker like for example, for example, okay.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Wouldn't your coworker at some point keep you up to
date on their partners no issues.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Here's here's what here's what I'm going to say, right,
So the there was at the end of the year.
At the end of the year, there was a dinner
we all went and Aaron Hyland went and.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
His wife went. Have you ever spent any time with
Aaron Hyland's wife?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now I may know that she's on a feeding tube,
But you didn't go to this dinner.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yes you did.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
It wasn't at the end of the year. It was
in like September.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Oh yeah, okay, oh I'm sorry. Is that the beginning
of the year.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
No, but when you say in December?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Yeah, no, no, but you thought you did a holiday dinner?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
No no, no, but you the no, no, we're talking
about the same dinner.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
God who hosted it, Roach the.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
Gregory the But you know, but you wouldn't have known
whether whether Aaron's wife was on a feeding tube or not. Yes, yeah,
you're right right if she walked in and was like
and had a had staple? Are you just talked to
a guy who did the staple in high school.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Which Tyler loves the same thing.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
You think higher high school?
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Do you think everybody at the high school was like, well,
I don't have anything to say to him.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
He's got double sided tape.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
No, everybody made fun of him because of the hose
in his nose, not because of the tape versus the staples.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
It's the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
And if you didn't have one of the staplers, that
would unhinge.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Hey, sweet Fain, why don't you put it under the skin.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
If you're putting a band poster, it.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Could get it in The margins were so restricted.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
But that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
You wouldn't necessarily know that somebody is on a feeding tube,
even if it's a close co worker.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
But wouldn't Aaron give you a heads up?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He may have, I may know, and you're not telling us.
I would have told you in Gossip off the air.
But there's a part of me that would also go, hey,
I just found this out. Watch Diane get uncomfortable.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
I have gossip. I would have sprinted back from Sean's
handing Aaron. I gotta get backed
