Ways to be a happier person in twenty twenty six, Bro,

authentically to your values. You must let go of social

Speaker 3 (11:15):
Be consistent. To live a life that's consistent with your values,
you might have to be authentic, which means being honest
and being who you truly are playing. Listen to your
inner voice. When you hear your authentic inner voice telling
you that you're not meant to be doing this, that

(11:37):
means sidestep it and move on to something.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Else, or just pretending to be somebody who you're not.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
Make sure you're walking the walk, walk walk, walk the talk,
walk the walk. If you're gonna talk to talk, you
have to walk the talk. You have to walk the walk.

Jet Puget Sound showdown. It's gonna be a fresh meat game.
Two brand new contestants going at him will go looking

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Can't believe that when you turn fifteen, all you have
to do is go down to the Department of Licensing,
give them your name, show them your stuff, and they
go all right, go ahead, hop behind the wheel of
a car.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
I thought you couldn't hop behind the wheel of a
car without the learner's permit and without some sort of
in the state of Washington, some sort of you're with
a driving school.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yes, he's with a driving school. It starts tomorrow. Oh yeah,
but he got his permit last week. Because you get
the permit within ten days of your session starting.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
Sure.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
The minute he got his paper, I said to the lady,
so he could technically drive with me in the car
right now, right.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
She's like, uh huh.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
I'm like, really we could, just Like if I want
to drive down to Tacoma, I couldn't. She's like, mm,
so just let us know where you guys are going
to be. And my Joshua is so like me. He
can't wait. Like some of his friends don't care too
much about it, like they'll kind of get to it
when they get to it. But because we have baseball

(13:48):
season coming up, we could not wait. We had to
do it right away. And that I couldn't wait. I personally,
I couldn't wait.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
To drive me too.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
I used to steal my sister's keys, couldn't wait to Camery.
And josh is the same way. He's wanted to drive
every day he had his permit. And he is a
good driver. And I am a terrible passenger, Oh my god.
And everyone who knows me, everyone who's friends with me,
will tell you they've never driven with me in a
car as the passenger, unless they're picking me up from

(14:19):
a doctor's appointment where I have to be driven around
because I always drive because I love.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Drives, as do I. I am not a good passenger, terrible.
I will I drive Rachel's car when we all use
her car, huh. And when I had to ride Shotgun
to teach Bailey how to drive, that was I feel
your pain.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
And even when I go down to visit my parents
in Florida, Like the minute I get down there, I'm like,
move over, Dad, and I start driving because I just
I have control issues and so I don't know about you.
But my one complaint. He's a great driver. He's listening
to me, he's making smart decisions, he's being defended.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
The video you sent he was driving rather fast.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, in the cemetery the minute he got his permit.
The one complaint I have, and this I think is
very very common, most likely, is that I keep feeling
like he's too close to the right side when we're
going down, I feel like my side is gonna go
and hit every car on the side. And he's like,

(15:23):
I understand that you feel that way, but I'm not,
I promise you, And I'm like.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
You're tired.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Needs to hug the line. You cannot be slamming me
into these cars. You'd be very impressed with me. I'm
being chill, but in my in my body, I'm screaming.
And now I know like for the next year, everywhere
we go, he's.

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Going to be like, can you drive? Can I drive?
Can I drive?

Speaker 2 (15:49):
So it's just gonna be like a terrible year of that.
But it's it's kind of amazing because from the first
time when I sent you that video of him driving
in the cemetery, he's driven like four times five times
since he good like I had him doing some crazy things.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Okay, is he but he's not in traffic yet though.
He's like, we're talking parking lots, Like, uh.

be trying to move up to that. No, that was
the big thing I wanted to do.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
So I want to volunteer at the hospital too. That
sounds awesome. Good for you, Thank you, Thank you guys.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
We'll see you later.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
All by a baby cuddler, Baby cuddler, Somebody on tech says.
I started an eight week pottery class, very excited to
learn new things. One of my former coworkers was very
serious about learning new things. Is always improving your skills.
Pick up an instrument, pick up a new language. I
don't know where some people find the energy. I don't

(24:07):
want to learn a ton of new things.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
I just want to have the energy in the stuff
I have to do already.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
I do have two things.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
I don't really use the word resolution, but two things
I'm going to focus on, at least at the beginning
of the year. The first is some people say fifty
fifty two hikes, which is a hike a week, fifty
two hikes I'm gonna do. I'm not going to do
fifty two hikes. I want to do forty. I'm gonna
say forty hikes. So I want to go for more
hikes because I've started to get lazy about actually leaving

(24:36):
West Seattle, and I'll just be like, oh, go to
Lincoln Park, or I'll go down to Alcai. I just
got to get in the car and just go up
by ninety Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
But you can't do that now because every time you
get in the car, Josh wants.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
You want to drive, I know, no, Well he's at school, sure.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
And then I want to make more soup instead of
buying soup because Josh and I love soup and I
have a crock pot, so I don't see why I'm
not making my own and soup.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yeah, hiking and soup makeing.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
Hiking and soup making, those are my two intentions. What
about you?

Speaker 3 (25:06):
My only intention was to be more financially responsible, and
I have become an absolute pain in the ass in
the last two weeks two and a half weeks when
it comes to what everything just in general, to be
more strict on the budget, and I have broken down

(25:27):
everything and I'm in absolute pain. Are you going after
Rachel's stuff too?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Like?

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Going after Rachel's stuff?

Speaker 4 (25:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (25:34):
What does that even mean?

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Well, because you know, obviously she's your wife, but she's
got different expenses than you, because she's a woman. Like,
are you going after her moisturizers and stuff like that?
You know she can't have any of that, Noel, what
about flying first class?

Speaker 4 (25:49):
Is that going to take a hit?

Speaker 3 (25:50):
Of course not. Okay, Now, figure out we were going
to reduce the number of times we will travel this year.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
Okay, but don't be ridiculous. I'm not trying to be ridiculed.
I'm just asking questions. So what took the bag.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
It's funny because when you bring up Rachel, I said, okay,
here's the deal moving forward for at least a little while. Yeah,
we're going to tighten the you know, tighten belt a
little bit. Okay, you can have your choice, right, moisturizer
stuff or wine or what?

Speaker 4 (26:18):
Well, that's rough.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
What would you choose?

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Well, I'd have to go with moisturizer stuff. Really, I
love my face products and my skin products. I get
crazy as.

Speaker 3 (26:30):
The she, but she has to live with me, so
she couldn't give up the wine sober.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, that's a fact. You know, you could buy cheap
booze and do it like hobo style, with like a
can of malt liquor in a in a paper bag.
You don't have to buy very expensive booze.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
I don't see that happening.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
I can't believe you're tightening your.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
Because it is okay, it's just more like examining things.
I'm like, holy crap, Like God forbid. You open up
your phone and you go into like uh like if
you're on an iPhone and you like you go in
to settings and go into where your like your Apple
I D and stuff is there's a button there that

(27:10):
says payments and subscriptions. Be shocked as to how many
things you've subscribed to over the years that you don't
realize and you're paying monthly in all this crap, have you?
And then and then I decided to go down the
rabbit hole of what do I get for my cell
phone benefits? What do I get from my credit cards
benefits them? And then I'm canceling things and they're like, oh,

(27:31):
we got to use our points points and I and
I may have given up the the ad free stuff
on all the streaming platforms, all this stuff. So it's
so it's but I'm I know, and I'm a pain
in the ass. I know, I am.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
Have you considered maybe trying to make some money for
the household by selling some of your shoes?

Speaker 3 (27:53):
Okay, I thought you were going to say feet pictures,
because both considered that Jody and Bender. Jody shared earlier
this morning that her son Josh, who's now fifteen, got
his learner's permit, and Jody terrified out of her mind.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
Although he's a good driver, he is.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
Yeah, you're now flowers, you're now riding shotgun, terrified out
of your mind. Everybody's now chiming in.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
Hey, Jody, this is Gail and Burien. So I learned
to drive when I was living in Michigan and my
dad used to take me to the shopping mall parking
lot early on a Sunday morning before the mall was open.
But in the winter, in particular, when it was tons
of snow and tons of ice and the mall parking
lot hadn't been plowed yet, he would reach over and

(28:42):
grab the wheel and send the car into doughnut spins
on purpose.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Nice driving with dads.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Good morning, Jody and Bender. Happy New year, Jody. Everything
you said about your son spot on and the driving.
My son recently also turned fifteen, and it's terrifying. He
got through all the online school. He even took his
knowledge test, which he passed with flying colors. But it's

(29:11):
that drifting to the right when I'm a passenger, so scary.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
Thanks, you know what.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
That is what the car appears to be drifting to
the right, which is what you were talking about earlier.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Yeah, that my side where I'm sitting is just gonna
be like goo goo goo gong and start hitting all
the cars.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Right.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
It appears that way because you never ride on the
right side of the car.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
Never ever, even when I was married, I always drove
like I don't I'm not a passenger. Yeah, the only
time anyone has ever driven me. My friends and I
were joking about it on Saturday, my friend at a party,
the Seahawks watching party, and uh, They're like, the only
time you've ever been a passenger is when we've had
to pick you up from the hospital to an appointments

(29:55):
like post colonoscopy, post i appointment, And even then, I'm like, oh,
I think I can do it. Real, But I fancy
myself a very good driver, a good combination of offense
and defense roomed on the streets of New York City,
because that's where me and my stupid friends the minute
we got our licensees bye and.

Speaker 4 (30:16):
Start driving around New York City. You know.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
So I'm trying to just like be cool and give
him credit. And he's doing really good so far.

Speaker 5 (30:24):
Fine.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
All he wants to do is drive past his friend's houses.
That's all he wants.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
It's all we want to do.

Speaker 4 (30:29):
The first day, he was like, can we drive by
Benny's house?

Speaker 2 (30:33):
And we did. We're like, well, Benny, have him. No,
Benny's a summer birthday. Oh, Josh and his buddy Connor.
The picture with what picture? You sent me a picture?
And there's division is buddy Connor Connor. Josh and Connor
are doing the class together at the same time because
they're taking this session together, and at the end of
this month or mid next month, he will have his purpose.

(30:56):
I know it's good though, like good for him. He's
feeling independence. I have a safe car for him to
drive him. I'm feeling very lucky that we get to
do this together and spend valuable time. And he sees
me as an asset because I am very calm as
far as he knows, other than feeling like I'm gonna
get smacked by every car on the right hand side. Internally,

(31:17):
internally you're screen, I'm on fire. It's okay, yeah. But
to him, I'm like, you're doing great.

Speaker 4 (31:24):
Spanning the glube to find the news you didn't know you.

Speaker 6 (31:28):
Need to know.

Speaker 4 (31:29):
You know that Daily Vender Gazette. Now here's Bender.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
All right, brought to my core contractors Jonas Bender Free.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
Kids in Florida.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
You really think I'm gonna start the new year by
giving you an easy one, like something out of Florida.

Speaker 4 (31:51):
Yes I do.

Speaker 6 (31:52):
No.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
Newburgh Heights, Ohio. Oh okay, three kids ages eight, eleven,
and twelve stole a car crashed it into a home
after watching how to videos on YouTube.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
Ah how did they steal a car? They must have
had the key.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
Well, it's funny that you asked that, because when asked
by police, first of all, all three kids took off.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Oh for sure.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yeah, police caught all three kids. The eleven year old
was driving, not the oldest, but the eleven years had
eight eleven and twelve year old eleven. The eleven year
old was driving, police told. The kids told police they
were watching YouTube videos on how to steal cars. Oh

(32:38):
my god, police said. The kids were later released to
their parents and charges will be filed in a juvenile court.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
I wonder if the YouTube video was like, you need
to switch license plates, you need to you know, change
your hair color, you need to travel off city streets
so that CCTV can't get you, or if it was literally.

Speaker 3 (32:55):
Of all, that's only like Jason Bourne movies.

Speaker 4 (32:58):
I know TV, yeah, or what?

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Or if it was literally YouTube showing them how to
hot wire a car?

Speaker 4 (33:04):
Do you know how to hot wire a car?

Speaker 3 (33:08):
Yeah? You pop the door off. Huh where all the
fuses are? You pull out all the wires, and magically,
you take whatever wires in your right hand with whatever
wires in your left hand put them together, and you
put them together and it'll start the car, just like
in the movies.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
I'm youtubing how to hot wire a car right now
because I'm less impressed.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
Oh yeah, here it is there. It is there, It
is there.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
It is Is any of them labeled? We're famous because
the kids worked for the kids?

Speaker 2 (33:40):
No, but there is a lot. Oh how how they
how to start a car with a screwdriver? Oh yeah,
no problem learning.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Cause you're you're less impressed by the three kids because
it's YouTube.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Yep, I assume they had a key. Also, I don't
even think they hot wearing it.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Why would you think that?

Speaker 4 (34:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
It just feels like an extra step, you know, like
if a kid grabs a key and gets it and drives,
they still shouldn't be doing that.

Speaker 3 (34:09):
Doesn't say that anywhere in the story.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
We're gonna find it.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
It was an inside job that they had the key.

Speaker 4 (34:14):
I'm gonna deep dive it. I'm gonna deep dive that
story I'm gonna google it.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Where you say Newburgh, Ohio, Newburgh Heights, Old Newburg

Speaker 4 (34:21):
Heights home of some bad A kids,
