Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's John Jay and Rich. I got this message from
my sister yesterday. I don't want to get into politics,
but I have to just bring this up. So there's
something going on with Trump and the whole birthright citizenship.
But you guys hear about that, which I don't totally understand.
But my sister messages me. She goes, you're a birthright citizen,
So what does that mean? So my mom's from Mexico,

(00:21):
I'm a first generation American citizen. My mom's from Mexico
and my dad's from the Netherlands. And my sister tells you, Now,
they both passed away, so I can't call them and
ask him. But she said they both got their green
cards because I was born here day. And I was like, so,
what do they ship me? Where where do I go?
If they're getting rid of birthright citizens?

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Is that what they're doing.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
I don't know how. I really don't know a whole
lot about it, other than I think maybe like from
now on, if you're born in America, depending on you know,
the immigration status of your parents, you may not automatically
be a citizen.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
But I don't tell me. I got to go, and
they're like, well, wait, so where'd I go. I'm half Mexican,
half Dutch.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
I guess they send you to Greenland because that's to
be part of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
I'll go to the Netherlands and we go there.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
You don't want to go, Maybe go there six months
out of the air and six months out of your Mexico. Like,
I'm most stressed, and they're onto me, they're onto you.
I thought my parents came here legally. May males are
wrong anyway, So I'll me talk about some TV. So
my son Jake Richard talking about the movie or the
TV show Showgun, which is supposed to be a greathow
it's excellent.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
There's just a lot of reading because there's a lot
of different languages.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
And which is interesting because you're a reader, but you
don't like you don't want to sit through it.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
Well, because a lot of times when it comes to TV,
I prefer to just listen to dialogue and not even
watch it sometimes. So if I have to read it,
then I got to really pay attention.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
So one of the number one shows is Squid Games
season two. Right, So my son Jake, he's in the
anime and he watches freaking every anime. In fact, two
out of my three boys are anime freaks. So Jake
says to me, you should watch squid Games and its
original the way it's originally met and read this and read.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
The what do you call it? The subtitles.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
So I started doing that yesterday and I'm on I'm
watching I'm on an episode four Squid Game season two,
and he's right, it's.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
So much better.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
What I don't know, probably because the acting is better.
Maybe because when you watch squid Game, I mean the
the acting is they have to replace words with other words.
So instead of like we'd be like, oh, that's kind
of weird, you know, they'd be like, well that is
very strange. Indeed, like you hear stuff like that, it
just sounds a little off.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
The acting is a little weird, but I mean that
it's like I'm watching it and it works. I was like, man,
he's right, So I'm gonna watch the rest of Squid
Games like that.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
You're gonna read it?

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 6 (02:36):
I watched this movie called Trained to Bussain a couple
of years ago, and it was like all in Japanese
and you had to read the subtitles, and it's probably
one of the best movies I've ever seen. I cried
like a baby at the end of it, and I
literally had to read while watching the movie that.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
But now now I'm not, what are you watching right now, Payton.

Speaker 6 (02:54):
Season three of America's Next Time Model?

Speaker 5 (02:57):
Wait from like two thousand and three.

Speaker 6 (03:01):
Yeah, like you could tell how poor the quality of
the video is, but that is just top tier television,
the best kind of television, Like thank you Tyra Banks
for America's Next Time Model, like a good show, quality TV,
quality TV. Like it is so messy in all of
the best ways, Like I'm seeing the brutal oh my gosh,
and some of the stuff that she'd like they say

(03:21):
on there, I'm like, you could not get away with
that nowadays, which is why I think watching and now
I'm like, you.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Mean like body shaming or something?

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Yeah, like right now.

Speaker 6 (03:29):
So the season I'm on, they have like one plus
size model and it's like her story is really inspiring
to watch. But some of the stuff they say, I'm like,
oh my gosh. But there's this one girl on the show.
Her name's Kelly, and she kind of reminds me of me,
Like she's like it's from the suburbs. She's a black girl,
but like kind of grew up around all like white people,
so she's a little whitewashed, right, and so I'm like,

(03:49):
I kind of relate and I connect to her, and
I'm watching this show and I'm like, that girl is messy,
Like I love her.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I see everything up the show.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Did you google anybody to see where they are? Now? No,
not yet.

Speaker 6 (04:00):
I'm waiting until the very end. But there's one girl
on the show that I'm like, I think that you
win it because I recognize who you are.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Oh that's cool, because there's I know there's a couple
of people from that show that have gone on to
be pretty big famous people, but I don't remember who.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
I know, Adrian Curry I think was her name.

Speaker 5 (04:16):
Oh, that's right.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
She was one of the first ones. So she went
on to become a famous model.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
And then she married one of the Brady's from Brady Bunch,
but I don't and then they had their own reality show,
married married a Brady or something.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
There's a couple that went on to Victoria's Secret too.
I'm just not remembering their names, but she would know
the Whey are you watching it?

Speaker 6 (04:34):
I'm watching it on Hulu.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Okay, that's so funny.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
I would never ever in a million years A goo
to Hulu be watch a show from two thousands three?

Speaker 2 (04:42):
What about you, Kyle? Did you catch up on anything?

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah, I'm actually I I'm just started selling the City.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
It's good Netflix.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
I feel like I'm behind because it's not I don't
even think it's in the top ten anymore. But like,
I love selling Sunset right and I love selling the OC.
It's neither of those.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
But it's good.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
But I have nothing else to watch, and I always
get sucked into the reality shows.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
The conflict will happen, it gets there.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Yeah, I'm like, I've already seen some conflict. It's okay.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Did you start the other show that they were talking
about yesterday?

Speaker 5 (05:14):
And now?

Speaker 3 (05:14):
I was gonna start it, but then I woke up
late this morning, so I did.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
You're talking about me?

Speaker 6 (05:21):
Yea, The Life of College I'm like, what are you
talking about?

Speaker 2 (05:24):
A model?

Speaker 5 (05:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (05:25):
Sex type of college girls.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
It's awesome.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
It's so good.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
I'm on episode seven now days, so I've been good.
I've been whipping through it.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah, a paid.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
What were you saying, by the way, about your hair?
Did you cut your own hair on accident? On accident.

Speaker 6 (05:40):
It was on accident. I gave myself a little trim
because a couple of days ago I took out I
had box braids in my hair, which is basically like
extension hair that you braid into my hair, and I
had to take it out.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
But it's like I have.

Speaker 6 (05:55):
To cut the braid in order to like take it
out of my hair. And I accident cut off like
an inch of my hair randomly with a bunch of
different braids because I didn't realize how long my hair
has gotten, and so I just was giving myself a
little trim, and so every braid that would come out,
like a little inch of hair would just come trickling
out with it too, and I would get so mad
at myself.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
Oh, like he said, noticeable if you don't have a
hair pulled back.

Speaker 6 (06:16):
No, because I have curly hair, you can't know. Okay,
my hair was straight, it would be like a botched haircut,
for sure.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
I was they say, let's do it, let's put you
through in America's Top Model photo shoot, but not if
their hair is also No.

Speaker 6 (06:27):
I would just get I don't think I could last
in America's next Top Model like photo roasting I think
I would cry, they roast they're so mean.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
You know, there used to be a show, do you
guys remember the show Hot or Not? Okay?

Speaker 1 (06:40):
They would bring out like women in bikinis and men
in shorts and they would sit with red laser pointers
and say, oh, yeah, this is wrong hair, and they
would circle their fat and they go it was on
TV and they would say, and then they would have
a big.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Thing like are you that hot or not? Ah, you're not.
But the thing is, these people signed up to be
on the show.

Speaker 5 (07:00):
I think they're not right.

Speaker 6 (07:01):
That's like the trend on TikTok that was like, tell
me what's wrong with me? And you'd post a picture
of you and people would be like, yeah, girl, you
have eyebrow black. You need to dissolve your left fillard's
making you look old. And these people are like you
they are so mean. I'm like, but you literally.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Ask for That's terrible. No way, that's terrible.

Speaker 5 (07:20):
Rich.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
One of the rules you have with your wife to
watch TV.

Speaker 4 (07:22):
Well, I don't have the rules. She has us TV rules. Well,
so this is what happens. So take the show sex
Life of College Girls. My wife was in the bedroom
watching I think The Challenge or Deal or No Deal
Island because she loves all the reality shows and I
just don't really get down unless I catch something, and
I'm kind of in a mood. So I went in

(07:43):
the start the Sex Live of College Girls because of Peyton.
I get five minutes in and the like, this is
a great show. Stacey needs to see this. So we
start watching it and we're in the bedroom and she's like,
here's the thing. I'm kind of tired, so here's the rules.
I don't want you to watch any more of the
show because I'm interested in it, but I don't want
to start a new show that I'm going to be
interested in because I'm going to be up too late.

(08:05):
So she basically told me, here's what I want you
to do. Find one of your nerd shows that you
can watch that I am not interested in, because if
I'm interested in it, you have to stop.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Because she wants to watch it with you.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yes, but I can't go any further. But I also
can't watch anymore without her, so I have to watch
something that's uninteresting for her. So what sci Fi, I guess,
is the only thing she has to care about, So
I don't understand how that works, because don't you need
to move forward with your shows to feel complete? Can't
I just go rogue? I mean I came in and
told her about it. I didn't have to tell her

(08:36):
about it at all. I could have just stayed out
in the other room.

Speaker 6 (08:39):
Because can you watch his sex Life of College Girls
without me? And I get mad every single time?

Speaker 5 (08:44):
But she will do it. She'll advance the show without me.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
In fact, she'll watch the whole series and she'll like,
say John Jay, like like Bad Sisters. I didn't see
one second of Bad Sisters, and she watched the whole
season and she's talking about the whole thing. So she
can watch ahead of me, but I cannot watch ahead
of her.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
My thing is with my wife, very similar rules.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
But I try to never get her involved in one
of my shows in case she presents that. So a
lot of times when I have to overrule and continue watching.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
How do you do that?

Speaker 2 (09:11):
How do you work? This is for work? I gotta
talk about this show on the air tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Culture you ready.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
I gotta talk about the show and it which I gotta.
I gotta watch it. Like sometimes she sits down and
I can see her face I'll look at her and
I can see my wife's profile and she's watching TV
and I can see her her head turn and I
know like she learns sideways, and I'm like, oh god,
she's getting into this and I have to pose it.
And I'll be like, hey, let's go do something, because
I don't want her to get involved in the show
because then I can't it all. The last time this
happened was this movie. I started watching the jd Vance

(09:39):
movie He'll Billy Something. I start watching it and then
I and we positive go. She goes, don't watch anymore
so I can watch you with you. We haven't watched it.
That was six seven, eight months ago. Because because of.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
That, have you had this where I'll be watching something
and my wife stays He'll coming and she'll be like,
what do you want to do tonight? And I'll look
at her and I'm like, well, it's kind of late.
I'm kind of doing what i'd like to do. But
I think that's her way of saying, stop that because
I want to see it. I think that's what she's saying.
I'm not reallyving sure what is that. I don't know,
what do you want to do tonight? I want to
watch this show.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
No, not without me or not
