Of the country's Oregon Trail.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Speaking of that the show I was talking about, you
just gave it away.
Speaker 6 (02:02):
Then once upon a time, Ma and Palm and Mary
and Lawa left the big woods of Wisconsin and moved
to the prairie.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
They had new life.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
I was waiting for them. Every day and every night.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Was an adventure.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
And even though they were all alone, they're very small
against the sky and the stars, they were happy because
they were a family.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And they were together.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
What.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, On the ninth of July, the year of Our
Lord Hours twenty twenty six, Little House in the Prairie
is being rebooted on Netflix.

for me. I was too young, didn't care. So I
think I've seen, like, you know, thirty second glimpses of
it because I would just race to change the channel.

They want you to learn something.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
You should learn something about. Well, first of all, taking
care of your body.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
Has nothing to do with the prairie. You should look
into that before you watch Netflix in July. Yeah, maybe
watching a treadmill.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I'm not gonna watch it, dude.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
No, it's not boring. You guys played that stupid video

Yeah, for food, That's what I'm saying. Same thing, Yeah,
same thing.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Hm, why did you turn my lights off?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Because I don't like the way I look on the
camera when the lights are on. I look like in
the movie, like Moby.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Oh. I don't think that's true the whale.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, anyway, all right, I'm on face. Zacho was texting
me just now because he's got the runs, saying that
he watched the entire new series reboot of Malcolm in
the Middle yesterday. Jeez, But he said it was only
four episodes and he was sad because he couldn't believe
that after the fourth episode was done.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, that's what he says. He would like to tell
us about it, but he's got the runs.

but I yeah, I haven't seen the Hobbit. I haven't
seen any of them.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
You can skip the Hobbit trilogy. I think they're flawed
but fun. But the first three are also it's essentially
a nine hour movie, and the third one one best picture.
It was more of a legacy win though, because really
again it's they filmed them all at the same time.
Speaker 2 (06:52):

Speaker 1 (08:38):

Speaker 4 (08:39):

Speaker 5 (09:26):
Buy Last night this is kind of sports adjacent. Last
Night was the final episode of Born to Bowl on HBO,
episode five.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Last one.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
It's the last one.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It was the last one already. Yep.
Speaker 5 (09:39):
It's kind of sad man again. It definitely uh reiterated
the fact that their lives are tough. The bowlers, the
pro bowlers, I don't want to watch that.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
They don't make a lot of money.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
They don't make nearly the money that you think, very very,
very few of them make significant money. I didn't think no,
but you would think that the time bowlers, maybe not
multi millions, but you would think the top bowlers are
doing okay.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
And it looks like only a couple of them are
doing okay.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
The rest of them really grind and it just looks
like depressing. They are constantly heartbroken, they're constantly frustrated with themselves.
They're always fighting back tiers, like why is this happening
to me? It's like the life of a poker player.
It does sound like it really does. It's a lot
of heartbreak and a lot of travel in the driveway.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
They're all in the driveway cloud, but they have to
live in that driveway.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Yeah, so it was a it was kind of an emotional,
tough watch, rough life those guys, I think.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
But they all love bowling. So again, that's why it's
called Born to book. They just like this. But it's
over five episodes and done. Have I ever told you
that I love you, that you're my hero. Graz Yes, and.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
Matt's family owns a bowling alley in Saint Cloud.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Which is a great river bowl? Can we bowl there
for free? I am probably know I know.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
A guy so he his parents bought it with I
mean he was when he was a kid. That's what like,
that's how he earned money growing up, Like on weekends
he would clean the bowling alleys.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
He a hustler. Probably your dad was the hustler. Dad.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
He's, you know, a better bowler than I am. He
has his own ball.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
That's hand bag. Ye takes it seriously, but hasn't.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
I don't you know your high scores?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I've never I've never bowled it. I bowled like upper ones,
but I I've never been in the league.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
He has an upper one, but it's been a while.
He's not currently an active really bowler.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
But but his brother currently runs that bowling alley the
what's it called? So if you ever need any like
secrets of the trade, like greasing the lanes, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yep, oxen.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
So if I need to know how to gress the lanes,
I reach out to Mark.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I wasn't truested in them, by the way, how they
how they they grease them differently? Yeah, that one episode
talks about the different patterns that I had no idea.
I just thought you greased had some bitch.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yeah, but when you get to tournaments and stuff, don't
they have to.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Be so I think they're normally uniform.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
But what Chris is saying is there is like a
series that there are four or five different patterns and
you have to bowl on each one of the different patterns.
So it's it's fair everybody has to bowl on all
of them. But there are different patterns and they're like
animal shaped or something. There's weird names for them. Who
knows what the sniffler and then they have to adjust
to the different oil patterns.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
My brother in law is who runs the now you're
just texted it. He is listening. I M I must
have said grease the lanes. He said it's oil oil oil. Yeah,
so I just married into the bowling lane family, so
I didn't grow up in it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):

Speaker 5 (14:36):
After this headlines as well Power Trip Morning Show back
after this on the fan.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Man, I gotta tell you, I'm so confused about whether
my windows are open shut?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Sorry? What are they good or are they bad?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I don't know how, I don't know what to think
about it.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Well, do you have good windows?
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Again? I don't I'm confused.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Well, if you have good windows, make sure they're closed
or open. But if you have bad weight No, if
you have bad windows, then you have them.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Can you start?
Speaker 5 (15:09):
No? No, no, no again, they have to be good windows,
but they have to be it's got to be your dog.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Wait a minute, either way, get them at windownation dot com.
That part is correct, right, wind donation dot com. That
part is absolutely correct. All right, you guys want to
try something?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, man?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Uh, do you guys know what what team codes are
in professional sports?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Like like uh, like.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
The Y Yeah exactly, but for for NHL or MLB
like team names, right, almost all of them for stats
have like a three letter code.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, I guess I don't know. Yeah, I mean I'd
never thought about it.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Yeah, so I thought this is stupid, But let's just
try this. Uh. The Minnesota Wild take on the Anaheim
Ducks tonight, and the Anaheim Ducks code is Ana. Pretty easy.
It's the first three letters in Anaheim. So I have
twenty words. This is one of those things that if
this game works, I'm gonna really regret doing twenty, so
(16:14):
in the future I have to keep prepping for twenty.
I hope this game either bombs or we just figure
out it would do less. I have twenty words that
include the letters Ana consecutively somewhere in the word, so
it doesn't have to start with Ana. It could be
in the middle, could end, but it's a NA in order.
This is inspired by my friends at Trivia Mafia. They
(16:34):
played a game semi similar on their No Brains, No
Light Bulbs pop podcast, and I'm like, I'm gonna steal that.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Must steal that. So I took a variation of what
they did, and I'm like, I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
So like the people in Kansas City stole a game.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Idea, No, that was a direct rip off. This is
a yeah. This is an adaptation.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
See hell all right, so let's not even yell out
our name. Let's just yell out the answer. Whoever yells
out the answer first gets the point. Everybody understand it's
just a word. So I'm gonna actually let's actually keep
track of score. Why Now, let's just to see if
this works. All right, Marnie, Hawk and Sauce.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Here we go.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Every single answer has a NA for the ducks in
the answer.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Here we go. Number one, the forty first state Kansas?
Speaker 6 (17:28):
What?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Oh boy, what DoD I thought it was.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
India?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Nope, Ana, Nope, And it was Venezuela forty first state.
And a oh, I'm thinking fifty first. Well when Trump proposed.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
A fifty first Oh sure, okay, sorry, okay, forty first,
forty first.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Let me just backtrack, and it's not Kansas at least
a guest Montana, got it. See, there we go. So
you start with the terrible guest, but you end with
the right answer. Montana is the right answer, all right.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Number two a state of disorder due to absence of
authority anarchy.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Sauce leads two to nothing. Here we go. Number three
nation home to the c N Tower, Canada, Canada, and
Marnie's on the board. Marnie has one, Sauce has two,

Speaker 5 (18:40):
Number four a large handkerchief, typically having a colorful pattern
worn tied around the head or the neck?
Speaker 2 (18:48):

Speaker 1 (18:50):
There?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I'll give it to me. Wow, jesus, how many do
you say that?
Speaker 5 (18:56):
That was pretty close. I'll get you both the points.
So Sauce has too. Marnie has two hot cas one
number five. Again, they all have a n A somewhere
in the word. A mainly African finch with a melodious
song too can Oh my.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
God, I'm just guessing. Man. Do you know how the
game works though? Right? But I have to have a
n A consecutively. That's two of.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Them, don't I know it?
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Some mainly African finch with a melodious song. It's mostly yellow.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
Your guesses are so close but so bad simultaneously, because
none of them include a na Iguana is the right answer.
You're on the right pass Sauce, but it has to
have a n A in the words.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Yeah, you'll get it. Uh. Marnie has seven, Hawk cast six,
Sauce has three. There's a five to go here, we
go almost done.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Sixteen Luke Skywalker's dad Anakin is correct.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
That's four, well done.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Seventeen Cuba's capital Levana. Sauce was first. That's five. Look
at this late comeback. Marnie has seven, Hawk has six,
Sauce has five. There's three to go. Oh, A couple
are tough here. Let's see a couple of these last
ones that are not easy, including this one.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
So if you guys know.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
This number eighteen A generalized supernatural force or power. This
is like nerds know this. Nerds love this word. Leroy

Dungeons and Dragons World video games use this word a
lot four letters.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
A generalized supernatural force or power.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
Manma got it? That is exactly the correct answer. That's mana, yeah,
absolutely well done. All right, Marty, hold on, look at this.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
They're charging you have seven day they each have six,
and there's two to go, and I don't have tie breakers. Whatever.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Okay, Nirvana, Nirvana is the answer.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Got it all right?
Speaker 5 (26:42):
So Marnie, he caught you, Sass caught you seven, seven
to six. So, Chris, if you get this right, even
though there's twenty, since I gave you guys both a point,
this would be a three way tie. Here's number twenty
last one an annual calendar containing important dates such as
astronomical astronomical data and tide tables, an almanac, almanac, And

All of you got seven because I gave you, guys
eat your point for the one that was almost simultaneous,
seven to seven to seven.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
That was fun, well done.

for the win, and I'm not sure you get it.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
Yeah, Tech, what was password?
Speaker 2 (27:37):
One hundred percent. Now it's time. Speaking of the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
We just mentioned Nirvana got inducted in twenty fourteen. How
about that, man, Here's the old list from this year,
because American Idol announced it last night. The Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty six. Phil Collins,
Oh hell Yeah, Oasis.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Yeah, Man, Champagne, Supernova.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Yeah, shot A Wales, Iron Maidens Finally, I.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Don't know why they weren't and that's one of the
greatest rock bands of all time. Probably two minutes to midnight.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
How does it go? Too?
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Man? It's I've Been Fired.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
And Joy Division.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
New Order Yeah, okay, like like two or three New
Order songs are ten out of ten.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
The diverse class it really is, really is.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
You have some some questionable ones in there, but who cares.
They can do whatever they want. Here's the ones that
missed the cut. Nominees that just missed the cut that
people think they got Rise did not make it, and
they are eligible because they've been around for at least
twenty five years. Lauren Hill didn't make it, Pink didn't
make it, Black Crows didn't make it.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
So as You're happy people, not that. No, Jeff Luckily No,
Melissa Ethridge surprising.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
No. In excess sorry, Bob Hagen in Excess falls short
yet again and for the third time. She was nominated
in twenty one, in twenty three and now miss it
in twenty six. I know it's the rock and roll
Hall of Fame, but clearly pop stars get in as well.
Mariah Carey still not in what I know, oh really
still not in that is she should be in for
(29:24):
her Christmas slammer, but just in general. Again, it's when
people say, well, she's not rock and roll, that's not
how it works. There are pop stars in there, and
she has been a huge factor for thirty years.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
Ye huge.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
She shouldn't calm down, no doubt in my mind.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
Future Hall of Famer Billie Eilish has her concert film
coming out in a couple of weeks and the trailer
just dropped. It looks freaking awesome. James Cameron directed it.
That show was one of the best concerts I've seen
in a long long time. Billy is a ten out
of ten. I'm going to be floored if my girls
don't want to go see this. So even though we
saw the concert, I would definitely go see the movie
(30:01):
as dumb ass.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It's that good.
Speaker 5 (30:03):
I want to see how they did it because it's
a spectacular show. So I can't wait to see how
they pulled that off.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Do week.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
It's similar to Taylor Swift's in that it is just
the concert or is there.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Behind the scene. I believe it's the making of the concert.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Based on the trailer, it looks like it's how James
Cameron and Billy had the vision for it and how
they pulled it all off. So it looks like a
lot of behind the scenes, which is I would argue
that the other main reason I want to.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Go is to see so it's not just a concert
of hers for fans to spend money on.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Right, Yeah, this is, But even if it was, it
would be worth it because Billy is that good.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Yeah, this is great. She's the best.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
We lost another member of the Wizard of Oz cast,
Son of a Bitch, who Valerie Lee played one of
the child munchkins. She died at the age of ninety four.
So we're down to exactly one one person left who
appeared on screen and Wizard of Oz and it was
(31:01):
also a child munchkin.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Only one actor or actress is left from that movie.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
There's even one exactly yeah not nuts Uh yeah, I
don't know one. This gal Valerie was six when she
was cast and celebrated her seventh birthday while she was
on the set. She won a couple of a couple
of other movies. But uh yeah, that's it. So the
other one is ninety six year old Priscilla Montgomery Clark.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Is now the only remaining cast member from Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
Nuts prea cool, pre cool, Now what Paul's hand is up? Now,
let us before anybody asks a question or answers that,
let's all just remember you're asking about somebody who's currently
ninety six, currently.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Ninety six fire Away, the lady that was in Wizard
of Oz, who is currently ninety six wood Hawk.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
I respect. I mean she's an actress and she's a
what she's an actress. She's an actress, a legendary, legendary. Yeah,
and you know.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Excuse me for a second, Okay, that was it was
odd there, it was not.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
I mean, we're going to find out that was something
that was that goes over the stream for YouTube.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
It's true.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
I just didn't want to be offensive. It's true.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
By the way, this Billie Eilish thing looks sweet.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Yeah, it's that show was ten out of ten. Man,
she's incredible. Yeah, Today's National Dolphin Day.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
I don't know what that means. How do you celebrate that?
Speaker 5 (32:47):
A new trend parents are paying up to fifty thousand
dollars to hire career.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Coaches for their kids. Yeah, fifty k though for career coaching.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I was reading about this. Kids are having a hard
time what do they call it? Failure launch? Kids are
having a hard time picking something to do because they've well,
you know, there's a bunch of reasons, I guess a million. Yeah. Yeah,
So just people that help them kind of focus, because
it's not just that they don't know what to do
with themselves. They're overwhelmed by the fact that they don't
know what to do with themselves, and they get depressed
because they don't know what to do with themselves. So
(33:19):
they just need somebody to help them focus.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
I guess we were talking about the industry. We were
talking about that yesterday. It was a room of Chris, myself, Abbott,
and liber and all four of us have kids that
are in that like late teen's, early twenties range, right,
kids that are essentially on the brink of hitting the
job market yep. And we were like, what a scary
overwhelming Like you just said, time to be that age, right, Martie,
(33:41):
You're in this conversation as well. It's scary as hell
because think if you were thirty right now or forty and.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Going, what am I going to do for the next
thirty or forty or fifty years? What if you're.
Speaker 5 (33:50):
Eighteen and going, I haven't even started my life yet
and I don't know how I'm going to find a
job that lasts the next fifty or sixty years. That's overwhelming.
It is, Yeah, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I don't know?
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Man?
Speaker 5 (34:01):
Not even like what are you capable of doing? What
are you smart enough to do? What are you physically
capable of doing? Just what are you going to do financially?
That's going to keep you afloat for the next six decades?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (34:11):
That's why I say gamble, Yeah, I'll tell you what man,
just gamble.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I'll throw it lucky. Because I love books, and you
guys know, I listened to audiobooks a lot. There's a
book i'm listening to right now called just came out,
called What to Make of a Life. And if you're
spinning your wheels, I don't care. If you're seventy and
you're like, I don't know what I'm doing with the
rest of my life. I think my life is over.
I don't care if you're twenty and you're like, I
don't know what to do with myself. Listen to this book.
This guy takes a look at people from all different
(34:38):
walks of life and kind of follows them. All of
the subjects had to be deceased because he follows their
entire life. He and his research team and looks at
their entire life and how many times they came to
a cliff and their life fell apart, and then how
they came back. And it's about continuing to keep, you know,
(34:59):
your head on a swivel, to find things that you enjoy,
and then concentrating on the things you enjoy so that
you can love what you do. It. It's really a
fascinating book. It's called What to Make of a Life,
And it's really helping me. It's really really good. I'd
encourage you to read it or listen to it. It's
really good What to Make of a Life?
Speaker 5 (35:15):
Good stuff, fantastic advice. But think about this for a second.
Think about having to explain to an eighteen year old,
this is how hard the rest of your life's going
to be. So make sure you know what I'm saying, Like,
for sure, that's why the world overwhelmed, I think is
the perfect word that you use. It's like, I just
don't even know what to tell kids that age when
they're like, I'm thinking about going into this, and I'm
going there's going to be no money in that, like
(35:35):
within the next couple of years.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
But you don't want to tell them not to chase
their dreams either.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
And you can't predict the future exactly, don't know, and
it's so hard for sure. And also I think we
have conditioned our kids, I know I did, to believe
that their job has to be something that is the
joy of their life. And I'm not saying this shouldn't be.
I'm just saying that sometimes it's called work for a reason, yep.
And sometimes well sometimes working at I'm just throwing out
(36:01):
a place, not offense to anything, but sometimes work at
a quick trip means you meet the love of your life,
and you also run into a person who happens to
end up being a CEO at some point in their life.
And so you got to take the steps to get there.
That life isn't about the end game. Life is about
the journey to get there. And you got to the
only way to live your life is to live your life.
And you can't expect to have joy with your first job.
(36:25):
You have to have your first job to find the
joy of your next job, and the next job in
the next job.
Speaker 4 (36:29):
And why is it so different now for an eighteen
nineteen twenty year old than when we were I think
we didn't have this conversation and you just started working.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Why is it so different?
Speaker 1 (36:43):
I have an answer for you. Again, this is a
small part of it. But from what I was reading,
and this is not my thinking, this is what social
scientists are finding out. Our kids have been so inundated
with the highlights of life that they have no idea
that not all life is a highlight. And so we
just got a job because we needed to get a
(37:04):
job because that's what we were supposed to do. That's
what we were told to do. They've been shown their
entire life that your job can be being a rock
star and you should be happy every moment of every day.
So the failure to launch is being overwhelmed, but also
not being as turned on by your first job as
the person you saw on TikTok is by their first job.
We've conditioned them that they have to be happy every
(37:26):
second of every day and there's no struggle. And we
were set up in condition because our family, our parents struggled,
and so they told us this is how life is.
We didn't do that for our kid. We showed them
social media that showed them the life should be perfect
all the time.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
And think about this, mar and two back to like
the social media thing. I remember like when Harper was
like five or six, and I started to do the
whole like, hey, what do you want to be when
you're older?
Speaker 2 (37:47):
And as soon as she realized that you could be a.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
YouTube person, she's like, I want to be a YouTube
star and it's like, oh boy. And what sucks about
that in terms of hard work is the people that
are really really successful on YouTube or Instagram. Most of
them work pretty hard, right, There's there's a there's an
illusion of Oh, I just make videos and I make
tons of money and I'm super famous. But a lot
of them have to really grind to get good at
(38:11):
the craft market themselves, connect with the right people. There's
a lot behind the scenes that is probably a lot
more difficult than we're going to give it credit for.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
But the kids don't see that.
Speaker 5 (38:19):
They just see, Oh, this guy's having the most fun ever,
this must be the easiest life of all time. It's like, well,
that guy might have might have been living check to
check for five years trying to build a following, and
then some spark hits and now he's got millions of
dollars and he's rich in fame. So they don't even
see the work. It's just the illusion of instant fame.
And then there, of course are cases of instant fame,
(38:40):
and they want that fascinating.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
It sucks. That part sucks.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
In this book, there's a there's a he, like I said,
he puts two people at similar lives beside each other
and follows the trajectory of their lives to see what
happened to him, and one of them's John Glenn, you
guys obviously remember. And the other is Gordon Cooper, who's
a guy we don't know his name, but he had
a very similar life. They both were pilots, uh, test pilots,
(39:05):
all these things and uh they did crazy stuff, right
and and and Gordon Cooper his book. Uh, they asked
him why were you so happy? Why were you why
were you so pleased with your life as a test
pilot even though it was so dangerous? And he said,
I love this line. He said, I discovered my truest element.
(39:27):
In other words, I and it didn't make me famous
like John Glenn, but I found the thing that made
my life click in the place. You don't have to
be rich, You don't even have to have a You
could you could You could be somebody who collects trash
for a living. If that, if that is your truest element,
if that clicks in your life, then you're going to
be happy, whether you're rich or poor. Not not jubilant
(39:47):
every day, but fulfilled. That's a better word, fulfilled, whether
you're rich or poor. I love that idea. The process
of discovery does not allow for a perfect record. The
process of discovery does not allow for perfect record. Keep
that in mind. Don't avoid the struggle. The struggle is
the way to learn so you can get where you're going.
Speaker 5 (40:05):
Another thing that the generations after us aren't super used to, right,
is we grew up with failure. Yeah, we failed all
the time, all the time, and now everybody gets a
blue ribbon.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
And I know that's a cliche, but it's the truth is.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
True, it's the true money gets rewarded.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
Yeah, So it's it's hard because it's you know, like
it's hard to even like, my youngest got pretty good
news yesterday and when it comes to something that she's
involved with, and I'm like, yeah, but you worked your
ass off, so if it hadn't gone your way, I
still would have been just as proud, and you should
have still been just as proud. So it's hard, though,
because they take failure so much differently than I think
than we did.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
You're so right, you nailed it. That is so true.
And again it was an overcorrection. And and that happens,
you know, in the in the in the search for
protecting our kids from what may have happened to us,
we overcorrected. That happens to every generation.
Speaker 5 (40:57):
That's swings absolutely, and their generation, their kids are going
to have some kind of weird swing as well.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
Yep. Yeah, we were latch key kids, right is that
what they call it? Latch key kids?
Speaker 2 (41:06):
A little too much freedom?
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Probably, so we went from being latch key kids to
being helicopter parents. Yeah, we over corrected.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yeah, somewhere in the middle is probably the right answer.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
All you can do is love them, though, That's all.
And let me try. Trust me, no matter how good
a job you do or how bad a job you do,
you're going to mess up. The only thing you can
do right is love them. That's the only thing you
can do.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
That is true. Well said well on that note.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah, I do love them, and I'm hoping we're setting
them off in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
And if the kids or surf side.
Speaker 4 (41:45):
Oh boy, that is a tough one.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
What if you get kids inside were talking the beach?
I see, can they just get him a job at surfside?
Speaker 1 (41:54):
A good idea?
Speaker 2 (41:55):
Yeah, good idea? See you it's best?
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Yeah, sure, Look kids, mommy's passion is surf sid Wow.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
Yeah we've noticed.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
Oh, by the way, kids, you're not going to college.
Speaker 2 (42:09):
Oh ma, it'd been nice if you showed up to
a game or two.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
The other passion is gambling.
Speaker 5 (42:15):
That's if you're gonna learn anything in the last twenty minutes.
It's that kids, just go to the casino and cross
your fingers right.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
The Power, The Power, all said. The Powers Morning Show
has been doing that for twenty five years. Almost look
at how good it s turned out for us.
Speaker 5 (42:28):
Just sad, gamble, roulette, super fun life.

Brother, it sure is, Martin. See you Friday. I'll see
your Friday. See your Friday.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Is anybody outside my door? Well you guys look for me.
Speaker 2 (42:38):

Speaker 1 (42:39):
I sure hope not.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
You just talked about starting over tomorrow five thirty to nine.
See you then. I already have a wonder for now.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
You don't give it a shot.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
It's the fun of it. Love you, Amma.
He pooped himself in my studio. I'm telling you just

came over here.

No, I was.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Trying to make you laugh because you're gonna punch.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
The computer, right, Why would you punch the computer?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
He was hawk because I'm trying to figure out why
I'm being charged so much by a phone company. And
the phone company keeps telling me I can't get into
my account because it's restricted. But who could it be
restricted from? I'm the one.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I'm it's me.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Don't restrict me from me.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
My phone has been whacking out lately with the my Bluetooth.
My Bluetooth has been won't connect, won't connect, disconnects from
my car AirPods. I think it's trying to make me
(01:05):
get a new phone because the mine's like three years old.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
So I try to reset it. It's all up to date.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Stay restricted?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Lord?
Speaker 5 (01:18):
Does it see that?
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Why is it restricted? Okay, I'll have to take care
of that on my own time.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
We need like tech guidance people. Wouldn't that be nice?
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Sheet and send it down to San Anton and see

He's not here.

He's sick. He's at home.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah, he's got he's working from home.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
He's got rot gut that we need you, but explosions

Speaker 1 (01:51):
You know what he's got. He's got that stuff you
get on that one game where you go out in
the woods and you travel from one side.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Of the country's Oregon Trail.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Speaking of that the show I was talking about, you
just gave it away.
Speaker 6 (02:02):
Then once upon a time, Ma and Palm and Mary
and Lawa left the big woods of Wisconsin and moved
to the prairie.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
They had new life.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
I was waiting for them. Every day and every night.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Was an adventure.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
And even though they were all alone, they're very small
against the sky and the stars, they were happy because
they were a family.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
And they were together.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
What.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, On the ninth of July, the year of Our
Lord Hours twenty twenty six, Little House in the Prairie
is being rebooted on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
I has like an episodic show. Yeah that's correct, Okay,
thank you? Who's playing half pint? Ben and Jerry Well
played dual roles.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Who the Hell's half pint? Oh you, I've never seen
an episode.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
I'm with you.
Speaker 5 (03:28):

for me. I was too young, didn't care. So I
think I've seen, like, you know, thirty second glimpses of
it because I would just race to change the channel.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
One of the actors in this show, her first name

Speaker 1 (04:45):
You should learn something about. Well, first of all, taking
care of your body.

into that before you watch Netflix in July. Yeah, maybe
watching a treadmill.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I'm not gonna watch it, dude.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
No, it's not boring. You guys played that stupid video

Speaker 1 (05:11):
It's trying to avoid getting dysenterian STD.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
It's so good.

Yeah, for food, That's what I'm saying. Same thing, Yeah,
same thing.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Hm, why did you turn my lights off?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Because I don't like the way I look on the
camera when the lights are on. I look like in
the movie, like Moby.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Oh. I don't think that's true the whale.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, anyway, all right, I'm on face. Zacho was texting
me just now because he's got the runs, saying that
he watched the entire new series reboot of Malcolm in
the Middle yesterday. Jeez, But he said it was only
four episodes and he was sad because he couldn't believe
that after the fourth episode was done.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, that's what he says. He would like to tell
us about it, but he's got the runs.
Speaker 5 (06:08):

Yeah, but I have not seen that. Maybe the first one,
but I yeah, I haven't seen the Hobbit. I haven't
seen any of them.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
You can skip the Hobbit trilogy. I think they're flawed
but fun. But the first three are also it's essentially
a nine hour movie, and the third one one best picture.
It was more of a legacy win though, because really
again it's they filmed them all at the same time.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
It's one big movie. It's a nine hour movie. Oh
it's nine hours. You can do morell it's nine hours,
by the way.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yeah that I mean, it's all right, isn't it gonna be?
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Like?
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I mean, I didn't quite hear that weather forecast started
with a foot and then it went mah.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Uh forty eight right now? Sixty five is the high?
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Okay, sixty five, that's that's great. A game three degrees
warmer than my basement.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Sixty five today, thirty eight for a high on set?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah what and either day around that.
Speaker 1 (08:59):

thirty eight Saturday.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
We're fine. Just stay indoors, that's fine. I stand doors,
order food. I can ride my motorcycle. Man, where cycle
riding to do?
Speaker 1 (09:15):

Where's your favorite place to go?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
My favorite place to.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Go motorcycle riding?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I like to cruise.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
Buy Last night this is kind of sports adjacent. Last
Night was the final episode of Born to Bowl on HBO,
episode five.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Last one.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
It's the last one.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It was the last one already. Yep.
Speaker 5 (09:39):
It's kind of sad man again. It definitely uh reiterated
the fact that their lives are tough. The bowlers, the
pro bowlers, I don't want to watch that.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
They don't make a lot of money.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
They don't make nearly the money that you think, very very,
very few of them make significant money. I didn't think no,
but you would think that the time bowlers, maybe not
multi millions, but you would think the top bowlers are
doing okay.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
And it looks like only a couple of them are
doing okay.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
The rest of them really grind and it just looks
like depressing. They are constantly heartbroken, they're constantly frustrated with themselves.
They're always fighting back tiers, like why is this happening
to me? It's like the life of a poker player.
It does sound like it really does. It's a lot
of heartbreak and a lot of travel in the driveway.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
They're all in the driveway cloud, but they have to
live in that driveway.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Yeah, so it was a it was kind of an emotional,
tough watch, rough life those guys, I think.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
But they all love bowling. So again, that's why it's
called Born to book. They just like this. But it's
over five episodes and done. Have I ever told you
that I love you, that you're my hero. Graz Yes, and.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
Matt's family owns a bowling alley in Saint Cloud.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Which is a great river bowl? Can we bowl there
for free? I am probably know I know.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
A guy so he his parents bought it with I
mean he was when he was a kid. That's what like,
that's how he earned money growing up, Like on weekends
he would clean the bowling alleys.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
He a hustler. Probably your dad was the hustler. Dad.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
He's, you know, a better bowler than I am. He
has his own ball.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
That's hand bag. Ye takes it seriously, but hasn't.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
I don't you know your high scores?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I've never I've never bowled it. I bowled like upper ones,
but I I've never been in the league.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
He has an upper one, but it's been a while.
He's not currently an active really bowler.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
But but his brother currently runs that bowling alley the
what's it called? So if you ever need any like
secrets of the trade, like greasing the lanes, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yep, oxen.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
So if I need to know how to gress the lanes,
I reach out to Mark.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I wasn't truested in them, by the way, how they
how they they grease them differently? Yeah, that one episode
talks about the different patterns that I had no idea.
I just thought you greased had some bitch.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yeah, but when you get to tournaments and stuff, don't
they have to.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Be so I think they're normally uniform.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
But what Chris is saying is there is like a
series that there are four or five different patterns and
you have to bowl on each one of the different patterns.
So it's it's fair everybody has to bowl on all
of them. But there are different patterns and they're like
animal shaped or something. There's weird names for them. Who
knows what the sniffler and then they have to adjust
to the different oil patterns.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
My brother in law is who runs the now you're
just texted it. He is listening. I M I must
have said grease the lanes. He said it's oil oil oil. Yeah,
so I just married into the bowling lane family, so
I didn't grow up in it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Guys, Sorry about that. Not part of your coach.
Speaker 1 (13:11):

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Man, I gotta tell you, I'm so confused about whether
my windows are open shut?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Sorry? What are they good or are they bad?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I don't know how, I don't know what to think
about it.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Well, do you have good windows?
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Again? I don't I'm confused.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
Well, if you have good windows, make sure they're closed
or open. But if you have bad weight No, if
you have bad windows, then you have them.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Can you start?
Speaker 5 (15:09):
No? No, no, no again, they have to be good windows,
but they have to be it's got to be your dog.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Wait a minute, either way, get them at windownation dot com.
That part is correct, right, wind donation dot com. That
part is absolutely correct. All right, you guys want to
try something?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, man?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Uh, do you guys know what what team codes are
in professional sports?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Like like uh, like.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
The Y Yeah exactly, but for for NHL or MLB
like team names, right, almost all of them for stats
have like a three letter code.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, I guess I don't know. Yeah, I mean I'd
never thought about it.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Yeah, so I thought this is stupid, But let's just
try this. Uh. The Minnesota Wild take on the Anaheim
Ducks tonight, and the Anaheim Ducks code is Ana. Pretty easy.
It's the first three letters in Anaheim. So I have
twenty words. This is one of those things that if
this game works, I'm gonna really regret doing twenty, so
(16:14):
in the future I have to keep prepping for twenty.
I hope this game either bombs or we just figure
out it would do less. I have twenty words that
include the letters Ana consecutively somewhere in the word, so
it doesn't have to start with Ana. It could be
in the middle, could end, but it's a NA in order.
This is inspired by my friends at Trivia Mafia. They
(16:34):
played a game semi similar on their No Brains, No
Light Bulbs pop podcast, and I'm like, I'm gonna steal that.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Must steal that. So I took a variation of what
they did, and I'm like, I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
So like the people in Kansas City stole a game.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Idea, No, that was a direct rip off. This is
a yeah. This is an adaptation.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
See hell all right, so let's not even yell out
our name. Let's just yell out the answer. Whoever yells
out the answer first gets the point. Everybody understand it's
just a word. So I'm gonna actually let's actually keep
track of score. Why Now, let's just to see if
this works. All right, Marnie, Hawk and Sauce.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Here we go.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Every single answer has a NA for the ducks in
the answer.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Here we go. Number one, the forty first state Kansas?
Speaker 6 (17:28):
What?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Oh boy, what DoD I thought it was.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
India?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Nope, Ana, Nope, And it was Venezuela forty first state.
And a oh, I'm thinking fifty first. Well when Trump proposed.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
A fifty first Oh sure, okay, sorry, okay, forty first,
forty first.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Let me just backtrack, and it's not Kansas at least
a guest Montana, got it. See, there we go. So
you start with the terrible guest, but you end with
the right answer. Montana is the right answer, all right.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Number two a state of disorder due to absence of
authority anarchy.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Sauce leads two to nothing. Here we go. Number three
nation home to the c N Tower, Canada, Canada, and
Marnie's on the board. Marnie has one, Sauce has two,
very good.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
Number four a large handkerchief, typically having a colorful pattern
worn tied around the head or the neck?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Wow? Should we give it to both of you?
Speaker 1 (18:50):
There?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I'll give it to me. Wow, jesus, how many do
you say that?
Speaker 5 (18:56):
That was pretty close. I'll get you both the points.
So Sauce has too. Marnie has two hot cas one
number five. Again, they all have a n A somewhere
in the word. A mainly African finch with a melodious
song too can Oh my.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
God, I'm just guessing. Man. Do you know how the
game works though? Right? But I have to have a
n A consecutively. That's two of.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Them, don't I know it?
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Some mainly African finch with a melodious song. It's mostly yellow.
You'll think of it as yellow.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Canary Hawk was first.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
We got a three way tie to two to two
Nice job Hugs number six a nineteen ninety seven Jennifer
Lopez movie and.

Speaker 5 (22:07):
Name a yellow edible banana? Marni takes the lead again
with six. Hawk and Sauce each have three. Number twelve.
The study of the structure or internal workings of something.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Internal is the keyword. I think like humans in intestinal.
Speaker 5 (22:40):
Intestinal It's like a like a middle school or high
school class kind of Oh uh.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Anatomy. There you go.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Chris gets point number four so Marnie has six, howk
has four, Sauce has three. Uh, number thirteen A Night
ninety nine Billy Crystal, Robert de Niro movie.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
There was a couple of these, but this was the
first one took two words. Sure.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
The sequel, I think the second word was that analyze this, analyze.
This was the original one. Analyze. This was nineteen ninety nine.
Marnie has six, Hawk has five, Sauce has three. Number fourteen. Again,
all of these answers have the letters A and A consecutively.
Speaker 2 (23:42):

Number fourteen controls the activities, business dealings, and other aspects
of an entertainer's career.

and a green coloration.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Chameleon, lizard, Kansas.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
T rex.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Your guesses are so close but so bad simultaneously, because
none of them include a na Iguana is the right answer.
You're on the right pass Sauce, but it has to
have a n A in the words.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Yeah, you'll get it. Uh. Marnie has seven, Hawk cast six,
Sauce has three. There's a five to go here, we
go almost done.

Idle, new documentary out by the way.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Wu Tang Clan, Yeah, Luther Vandross.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
You guys are go Van Ross or Van Ross you
can say, you can say it either way.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Yeah, shot A Wales, Iron Maidens Finally, I.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Don't know why they weren't and that's one of the
greatest rock bands of all time. Probably two minutes to midnight.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
How does it go? Too?
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Man? It's I've Been Fired.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
And Joy Division.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
New Order Yeah, okay, like like two or three New
Order songs are ten out of ten.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
The diverse class it really is, really is.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
You have some some questionable ones in there, but who cares.
They can do whatever they want. Here's the ones that
missed the cut. Nominees that just missed the cut that
people think they got Rise did not make it, and
they are eligible because they've been around for at least
twenty five years. Lauren Hill didn't make it, Pink didn't
make it, Black Crows didn't make it.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
So as You're happy people, not that. No, Jeff Luckily No,
Melissa Ethridge surprising.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
No. In excess sorry, Bob Hagen in Excess falls short
yet again and for the third time. She was nominated
in twenty one, in twenty three and now miss it
in twenty six. I know it's the rock and roll
Hall of Fame, but clearly pop stars get in as well.
Mariah Carey still not in what I know, oh really
still not in that is she should be in for
(29:24):
her Christmas slammer, but just in general. Again, it's when
people say, well, she's not rock and roll, that's not
how it works. There are pop stars in there, and
she has been a huge factor for thirty years.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
Ye huge.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
She shouldn't calm down, no doubt in my mind.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
Future Hall of Famer Billie Eilish has her concert film
coming out in a couple of weeks and the trailer
just dropped. It looks freaking awesome. James Cameron directed it.
That show was one of the best concerts I've seen
in a long long time. Billy is a ten out
of ten. I'm going to be floored if my girls
don't want to go see this. So even though we
saw the concert, I would definitely go see the movie
(30:01):
as dumb ass.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It's that good.
Speaker 5 (30:03):
I want to see how they did it because it's
a spectacular show. So I can't wait to see how
they pulled that off.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Do week.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
It's similar to Taylor Swift's in that it is just
the concert or is there.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Behind the scene. I believe it's the making of the concert.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Based on the trailer, it looks like it's how James
Cameron and Billy had the vision for it and how
they pulled it all off. So it looks like a
lot of behind the scenes, which is I would argue
that the other main reason I want to.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Go is to see so it's not just a concert
of hers for fans to spend money on.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Right, Yeah, this is, But even if it was, it
would be worth it because Billy is that good.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Yeah, this is great. She's the best.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
We lost another member of the Wizard of Oz cast,
Son of a Bitch, who Valerie Lee played one of
the child munchkins. She died at the age of ninety four.
So we're down to exactly one one person left who
appeared on screen and Wizard of Oz and it was
(31:01):
also a child munchkin.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Only one actor or actress is left from that movie.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
There's even one exactly yeah not nuts Uh yeah, I
don't know one. This gal Valerie was six when she
was cast and celebrated her seventh birthday while she was
on the set. She won a couple of a couple
of other movies. But uh yeah, that's it. So the
other one is ninety six year old Priscilla Montgomery Clark.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Is now the only remaining cast member from Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
Nuts prea cool, pre cool, Now what Paul's hand is up? Now,
let us before anybody asks a question or answers that,
let's all just remember you're asking about somebody who's currently
ninety six, currently.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Ninety six fire Away, the lady that was in Wizard
of Oz, who is currently ninety six wood Hawk.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
I respect. I mean she's an actress and she's a
what she's an actress. She's an actress, a legendary, legendary. Yeah,
and you know.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Excuse me for a second, Okay, that was it was
odd there, it was not.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
I mean, we're going to find out that was something
that was that goes over the stream for YouTube.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
It's true.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
I just didn't want to be offensive. It's true.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
By the way, this Billie Eilish thing looks sweet.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Yeah, it's that show was ten out of ten. Man,
she's incredible. Yeah, Today's National Dolphin Day.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
I don't know what that means. How do you celebrate that?
Speaker 5 (32:47):
A new trend parents are paying up to fifty thousand
dollars to hire career.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Coaches for their kids. Yeah, fifty k though for career coaching.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I was reading about this. Kids are having a hard
time what do they call it? Failure launch? Kids are
having a hard time picking something to do because they've well,
you know, there's a bunch of reasons, I guess a million. Yeah. Yeah,
So just people that help them kind of focus, because
it's not just that they don't know what to do
with themselves. They're overwhelmed by the fact that they don't
know what to do with themselves, and they get depressed
because they don't know what to do with themselves. So
(33:19):
they just need somebody to help them focus.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
I guess we were talking about the industry. We were
talking about that yesterday. It was a room of Chris, myself, Abbott,
and liber and all four of us have kids that
are in that like late teen's, early twenties range, right,
kids that are essentially on the brink of hitting the
job market yep. And we were like, what a scary
overwhelming Like you just said, time to be that age, right, Martie,
(33:41):
You're in this conversation as well. It's scary as hell
because think if you were thirty right now or forty and.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Going, what am I going to do for the next
thirty or forty or fifty years? What if you're.
Speaker 5 (33:50):
Eighteen and going, I haven't even started my life yet
and I don't know how I'm going to find a
job that lasts the next fifty or sixty years. That's overwhelming.
It is, Yeah, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I don't know?
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Man?
Speaker 5 (34:01):
Not even like what are you capable of doing? What
are you smart enough to do? What are you physically
capable of doing? Just what are you going to do financially?
That's going to keep you afloat for the next six decades?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (34:11):
That's why I say gamble, Yeah, I'll tell you what man,
just gamble.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I'll throw it lucky. Because I love books, and you
guys know, I listened to audiobooks a lot. There's a
book i'm listening to right now called just came out,
called What to Make of a Life. And if you're
spinning your wheels, I don't care. If you're seventy and
you're like, I don't know what I'm doing with the
rest of my life. I think my life is over.
I don't care if you're twenty and you're like, I
don't know what to do with myself. Listen to this book.
This guy takes a look at people from all different
(34:38):
walks of life and kind of follows them. All of
the subjects had to be deceased because he follows their
entire life. He and his research team and looks at
their entire life and how many times they came to
a cliff and their life fell apart, and then how
they came back. And it's about continuing to keep, you know,
(34:59):
your head on a swivel, to find things that you enjoy,
and then concentrating on the things you enjoy so that
you can love what you do. It. It's really a
fascinating book. It's called What to Make of a Life,
And it's really helping me. It's really really good. I'd
encourage you to read it or listen to it. It's
really good What to Make of a Life?
Speaker 5 (35:15):
Good stuff, fantastic advice. But think about this for a second.
Think about having to explain to an eighteen year old,
this is how hard the rest of your life's going
to be. So make sure you know what I'm saying, Like,
for sure, that's why the world overwhelmed, I think is
the perfect word that you use. It's like, I just
don't even know what to tell kids that age when
they're like, I'm thinking about going into this, and I'm
going there's going to be no money in that, like
(35:35):
within the next couple of years.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
But you don't want to tell them not to chase
their dreams either.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
And you can't predict the future exactly, don't know, and
it's so hard for sure. And also I think we
have conditioned our kids, I know I did, to believe
that their job has to be something that is the
joy of their life. And I'm not saying this shouldn't be.
I'm just saying that sometimes it's called work for a reason, yep.
And sometimes well sometimes working at I'm just throwing out
(36:01):
a place, not offense to anything, but sometimes work at
a quick trip means you meet the love of your life,
and you also run into a person who happens to
end up being a CEO at some point in their life.
And so you got to take the steps to get there.
That life isn't about the end game. Life is about
the journey to get there. And you got to the
only way to live your life is to live your life.
And you can't expect to have joy with your first job.
(36:25):
You have to have your first job to find the
joy of your next job, and the next job in
the next job.
Speaker 4 (36:29):
And why is it so different now for an eighteen
nineteen twenty year old than when we were I think
we didn't have this conversation and you just started working.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Why is it so different?
Speaker 1 (36:43):
I have an answer for you. Again, this is a
small part of it. But from what I was reading,
and this is not my thinking, this is what social
scientists are finding out. Our kids have been so inundated
with the highlights of life that they have no idea
that not all life is a highlight. And so we
just got a job because we needed to get a
(37:04):
job because that's what we were supposed to do. That's
what we were told to do. They've been shown their
entire life that your job can be being a rock
star and you should be happy every moment of every day.
So the failure to launch is being overwhelmed, but also
not being as turned on by your first job as
the person you saw on TikTok is by their first job.
We've conditioned them that they have to be happy every
(37:26):
second of every day and there's no struggle. And we
were set up in condition because our family, our parents struggled,
and so they told us this is how life is.
We didn't do that for our kid. We showed them
social media that showed them the life should be perfect
all the time.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
And think about this, mar and two back to like
the social media thing. I remember like when Harper was
like five or six, and I started to do the
whole like, hey, what do you want to be when
you're older?
Speaker 2 (37:47):
And as soon as she realized that you could be a.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
YouTube person, she's like, I want to be a YouTube
star and it's like, oh boy. And what sucks about
that in terms of hard work is the people that
are really really successful on YouTube or Instagram. Most of
them work pretty hard, right, There's there's a there's an
illusion of Oh, I just make videos and I make
tons of money and I'm super famous. But a lot
of them have to really grind to get good at
(38:11):
the craft market themselves, connect with the right people. There's
a lot behind the scenes that is probably a lot
more difficult than we're going to give it credit for.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
But the kids don't see that.
Speaker 5 (38:19):
They just see, Oh, this guy's having the most fun ever,
this must be the easiest life of all time. It's like, well,
that guy might have might have been living check to
check for five years trying to build a following, and
then some spark hits and now he's got millions of
dollars and he's rich in fame. So they don't even
see the work. It's just the illusion of instant fame.
And then there, of course are cases of instant fame,
(38:40):
and they want that fascinating.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
It sucks. That part sucks.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
In this book, there's a there's a he, like I said,
he puts two people at similar lives beside each other
and follows the trajectory of their lives to see what
happened to him, and one of them's John Glenn, you
guys obviously remember. And the other is Gordon Cooper, who's
a guy we don't know his name, but he had
a very similar life. They both were pilots, uh, test pilots,
(39:05):
all these things and uh they did crazy stuff, right
and and and Gordon Cooper his book. Uh, they asked
him why were you so happy? Why were you why
were you so pleased with your life as a test
pilot even though it was so dangerous? And he said,
I love this line. He said, I discovered my truest element.
(39:27):
In other words, I and it didn't make me famous
like John Glenn, but I found the thing that made
my life click in the place. You don't have to
be rich, You don't even have to have a You
could you could You could be somebody who collects trash
for a living. If that, if that is your truest element,
if that clicks in your life, then you're going to
be happy, whether you're rich or poor. Not not jubilant
(39:47):
every day, but fulfilled. That's a better word, fulfilled, whether
you're rich or poor. I love that idea. The process
of discovery does not allow for a perfect record. The
process of discovery does not allow for perfect record. Keep
that in mind. Don't avoid the struggle. The struggle is
the way to learn so you can get where you're going.
Speaker 5 (40:05):
Another thing that the generations after us aren't super used to, right,
is we grew up with failure. Yeah, we failed all
the time, all the time, and now everybody gets a
blue ribbon.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
And I know that's a cliche, but it's the truth is.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
True, it's the true money gets rewarded.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
Yeah, So it's it's hard because it's you know, like
it's hard to even like, my youngest got pretty good
news yesterday and when it comes to something that she's
involved with, and I'm like, yeah, but you worked your
ass off, so if it hadn't gone your way, I
still would have been just as proud, and you should
have still been just as proud. So it's hard, though,
because they take failure so much differently than I think
than we did.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
You're so right, you nailed it. That is so true.
And again it was an overcorrection. And and that happens,
you know, in the in the in the search for
protecting our kids from what may have happened to us,
we overcorrected. That happens to every generation.
Speaker 5 (40:57):
That's swings absolutely, and their generation, their kids are going
to have some kind of weird swing as well.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
Yep. Yeah, we were latch key kids, right is that
what they call it? Latch key kids?
Speaker 2 (41:06):
A little too much freedom?
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Probably, so we went from being latch key kids to
being helicopter parents. Yeah, we over corrected.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Yeah, somewhere in the middle is probably the right answer.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
All you can do is love them, though, That's all.
And let me try. Trust me, no matter how good
a job you do or how bad a job you do,
you're going to mess up. The only thing you can
do right is love them. That's the only thing you
can do.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
That is true. Well said well on that note.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
Yeah, I do love them, and I'm hoping we're setting
them off in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
And if the kids or surf side.
Speaker 4 (41:45):
Oh boy, that is a tough one.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
What if you get kids inside were talking the beach?
I see, can they just get him a job at surfside?
Speaker 1 (41:54):
A good idea?
Speaker 2 (41:55):
Yeah, good idea? See you it's best?
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Yeah, sure, Look kids, mommy's passion is surf sid Wow.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
Yeah we've noticed.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
Oh, by the way, kids, you're not going to college.
Speaker 2 (42:09):
Oh ma, it'd been nice if you showed up to
a game or two.
Speaker 1 (42:12):
The other passion is gambling.
Speaker 5 (42:15):
That's if you're gonna learn anything in the last twenty minutes.
It's that kids, just go to the casino and cross
your fingers right.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
The Power, The Power, all said. The Powers Morning Show
has been doing that for twenty five years. Almost look
at how good it s turned out for us.
Speaker 5 (42:28):
Just sad, gamble, roulette, super fun life.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
Brother, it sure is, Martin. See you Friday. I'll see
your Friday. See your Friday.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Is anybody outside my door? Well you guys look for me.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (42:39):
I sure hope not.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
You just talked about starting over tomorrow five thirty to nine.
See you then. I already have a wonder for now.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
You don't give it a shot.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
It's the fun of it. Love you, Amma.
