Speaker 1 (00:00):
And welcome back everybody. Today is August twelfth, that happens
to be National middle School middle Child Day.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Today's National middle Child Day, and appropriately it won't get
any attention.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I mean, who knows it could be National middle School
Day too, you never know. But we're celebrating National middle
Child Day. And our good friend Bruce Hopman is on
the phone. He's the founder at International Middle Child Union.
Bruce you there, Oh, I'm here. Okay, Bruce. We had
some fun with you last year on this day. And
(00:38):
first of all, the International Middle Child Union, what is it?
And what do we do with it?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Okay? So the Union was born because the irony of
being given a holiday, the middle Child Day, that nobody
pays attention to, was just too great to bear. And
I felt like this must stop. They're giving us this holiday,
Let's try to get some attention to it. So that
is the mission of the International Middle Child's Day. I
do everything I can every year to try to raise
(01:06):
awareness for it. Clearly not working. Nobody knows his middle child.
Plus we've got all these to start, like, thank you
Taylor Swift, thank you for announcing your out. It's like
not enough of a you know, today's National Julian Fry Days,
like we have to compete with other days today. We
don't get that to ourselves. We have to share that.
(01:28):
I was I'm watching the news last week and going
on and on about National Chicken Wing Day, and like,
you know, yeah, not enough for meat, a lot of work.
But but but that's not even the point. Chicken wings
get more more attention than the middle children. So this
is my this is my mission to raise awareness.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Bruce, Can I ask you a question, can you make
a living with this?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Absolutely? Absolutely not, absolutely not. This is this is a passion,
This is a this is I feel like I could
make the world a better place if I could just
get a little more attention to the middle children, at
least on National Middle Child Say. That's why today, of
course all my social media feeds at Midkid Union, I'm
playing Name that middle child. Every hour on the hour,
(02:18):
We're asking a question. You know, it's a trivia game.
Can you identify this middle child? And every hour and
a half hour the answer, So all day long you
could be thinking about middle children. What a great what
a great way to spend the day.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
You know, all of a sudden, this is getting very sad.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I gotta tell you at the end of Middle Child today,
it's there's a lot of you know, it's it's a
sad time, bad time. But I'm trying, you know so,
and you guys, thank you so much for helping get
the word out.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I think we're the only ones. We're so supporting that
helping you every year get the word out. But I
got to ask, middle child syndrome does it exist?
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Well?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I think this is living proof, right, I mean, who
else like yeah, yeah, but of course the firstborns and
the I forget what the makeup of the crew there is.
We have firstborn, we have any middle.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Children LDN first born?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Yes, I am right, So I think I think subconsciously,
I think the firstborns and the last borns they're a
little possessive of all the attention they got, right Like,
they like that. They don't want to share it with
the middle children. And by the way, in the middle
in a family, if you're not the firstborn or last born,
you're a middle child. So in a family four, there's
like two middle children. In a family of five, there's
(03:33):
three middle children. So the firstbornes that the last thing
they want is to share that attention.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Well interestingly enough, soy to keep it away. Yeah, Lisa,
who's sitting right here with me, happens to be a
first child, and she didn't get any attention.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
They skipped right over.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
Yes, you know what.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Also at my blog smackdablog dot com, there's a whole
post there about middle child energy. You can be a
firstborn but be given off middle child energy. If you
ever felt left out, left alone, or left behind. Yes,
you know what it feels like to be a middle child.
You know, so middle child syndrome is really it's also
like a state of mind. You could be a first
born and there, guy, I don't know why, after getting
(04:14):
attention and all, how you could end up feeling that way.
But uh, we're welcome, you know, welcome to the union.
Smign on up. Well, we're glad to have as many
members as we can.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
Have on Bruce's LinkedIn here. He's his political party and
middle Child Party, the founder of.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Look, I know a thing or two about meaningless titles.
I'm the founder of the International Middle Child Union. I'm
the I'm the founding father of the Middle Child Party.
I'm also the commissioner of Middle League Baseball. So I.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well, you know, I'm flattered, Bruce, that we are literally
the only people that pay attention to you every year.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Sure, I am touched. I am touched by by how
gracious you're being towards the middle child. This is not
something a middle child is used to it. As a
matter of fact, at any point, I expect the rug
to be pulled out. This is all a big gag.
We're not even on air, and you're just like trying to,
you know, appease a middle child.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Well, we're giving you the attention you never got from
your mom and dad.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
This is this is true. This is true, and and
and I don't and I clearly don't know how to
handle it, but I again appreciative. Get the word out there.
I don't want to have to do this every year.
You know, I love talking to you guys. But it
wouldn't it be great at one year everybody just knows
it's middle child.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Then yeah, it would be fine not talking to you.
But but we like talking to you when we do both.
But I should mention that, uh, Bill Gates was a
middle child.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Bill Gates was a middle You don't don't ruin the
trivia game here, don't ruin the trivia game. It might
be one of it might be one of the questions.
I don't want to spoil it right now, we've got questions.
This is going up from eight in the morning till midnight,
every hour, and you know, so Bill Gates might be
in there.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Where do we go?
Speaker 3 (06:01):
So on on Twitter, on on Instagram and on threads
at midkid Union, and the question will be popping up
every hour and popping up every half.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I oh, I'm gonna play.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Yeah, don't you have a strange podcast name? What's the
name of your podcast?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Pay no attention to this podcast?
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Its way?
Speaker 3 (06:26):
It worked, It really worked, It really worked. No one
paid attention. So I should have said, it's not a suggestion.
It's just a funny title. It's not a it's not directions.
Were listening, but you know, Bruce, have it.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
This is interesting. There's a good chance we lost thousands
of listeners having you on, But that's okay with us.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
It's middle Child's Day.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
It makes sense.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
One day you lose a few thousand listeners. What's the
big deal.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, what's the big deal? We'll get more bout Bruce.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
We love you, but we're hungry. We gotta go baby.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Kiss.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Okay, National Middle Child Day, and they suggest there is
a middle child syndrome. They were neglected and right they
do it.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
But they say that middle children have the biggest personalities.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
I believe that.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Well, based on this next guest, you could be right.
I think I am my son. Alex is on the
phone from Florida.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Good morning Alex, Good morning Billy and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Uh so, Alex, I got to ask you, you're our
middle child. Did you feel neglected growing up?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
What do you think?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Well?
Speaker 4 (07:30):
I would think not, well, I don't think it was
a justified feeling, but yeah, I definitely had the middle
child syndrome, I think is what they call it.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Yep, you felt forgotten.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
I felt like a forgotten child. I mean my older
brother was the firstborn and my younger brother was the baby.
So what does that leaf or am I? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, Well I got to be honest with you, Alex.
There was that period, No, the culture period, or is
trusting it in some sort of a culture's long hair?
And listening to Green Day twenty four hours.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
The whole thing. First of all, Green Day is played
on I want to wait in a fami. That's not
all music.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
No, Green Day's really not played on Kiss, but they
did do our very first iHeartRadio Music Festival.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
All I know is this whole bit seems to evolve
over time.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
It was goth.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Now I was in a cult.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Well you you were approaching goth. But then I put
an abrupt end to it.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I had teenage angst. I had an identity crisis.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
So maybe you were expressing your anger at being neglected.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah, probably is that? Is that what the expert was
saying earlier on the show.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Definitely, I think the expert really.
Speaker 6 (08:48):
Knew much.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Expert is. Yeah, maybe we won't stick with that term.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Now, how you feeling about your life right now? Do
you feel like you're getting enough love?
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
I do.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
There's an abundance of love. I'm really coming to my own.
It took a long time, but I definitely, you know,
middle child syndrome was the thing. I felt like the
black sheep. Would you say I was the black sheep?
Black sheep?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Not at all, not at all. I would argue you
might have been my favorite at times.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Yeah, definitely the favorite, but I definitely got in the
most trouble. It was probably the most work.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Well, Okay, now that you open that chapter. Yeah, you were, yeah,
kind of a trouble maker.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
A big personality, lashing out.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Yeah, so you were lashing out all that time. I
thought you were just expressing yourself, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, I mean I don't know if the two are
mutually exclusive.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah, so is there something I can do to make
up for that period where you felt neglected?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
You've done more than enough. Okay, I'm in my era
of trying to make up for for for my wrongdoings.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Justin did you immediately go to the money thing?
Speaker 6 (10:05):
Well, you know, you tend to hit people off sometimes
a few bucks here and there.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
You know, I always a little walking around money.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about that, but you know what,
Alex look at it. I'm like, Bruce, Alex kind of
got through it, got passed, and he came back on it.
Now it's not like still stuck with him. Yeah, no offense, Bruce,
I just had on speaking of.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Doing fine, Alex, are you going to be at another
five star hotel this weekend?
Speaker 4 (10:34):
Not this weekend? I did briefly visit the Breakers in
Palm Beach the past week and I don't know if
you guys saw that.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Yes, you know what you know what, you don't he
needs any walking around?
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I think he's fine. Aren't you leaving for Paris and
Greece and Italy in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
It's not Greece in Italy, but it is Paris, and
then it's going to be the south of France.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You're doing fine, middle child.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Hey, this is Ayana Grande and we're back with Billy
and Lisa in the morning on a Hey Billy Now,
the Entertainment Update with a Billy.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Consta big Taylor Swift announcement just after midnight last night
at precisely twelve twelve, and on August twelfth, it was
revealed on the Kelsey Brothers podcast. She's got a new
album and we've got it.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
I wanted to show you something.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
Okay, what do we got?
Speaker 5 (11:32):
We got a briefcase yep, Mick Greens on it.
Speaker 8 (11:36):
Yep.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
This is my brand new album, The Life of a Show.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Girls Jason Kelsey's over the top one.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
He was wearing a Taylor swift T shirt. He's all it.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
So that was the podcast right after midnight last night.
The complete podcast will stream tomorrow night at seven o'clock.
And uh, we've got producer who is the biggest Swifty
I know.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
Of and wearing Taylor gear today too in honor of.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
It layers Taylor Swift. Yeah, so what does this all mean?
What do you know? What does swifties know that the
average person doesn't know?
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (12:15):
I feel like the number one thing that you need
to know is that there might be a Sabrina collab
because on Taylor Nation's Instagram post yesterday there was twelve
pictures posted of her incomplete orange symbolizing t S twelve
and there was a picture included with Sabrina Carpenter.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
So hopefully they'll be a collab with her.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
And then also Max Martin is allegedly going to be
producing most of this because she made a Spotify playlist
that had all of her songs from Red In nineteen
eighty nine and Reputation that were produced by Max. So
everybody's thinking it's going to be a big pop album
with Max Martin production.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Which is what we need from Taylor. We need something
all pop and fun and dancy.
Speaker 8 (12:55):
It'll be perfect for you know, I was gonna say
this summer, but actually we don't know what it's gonna
be released, so it'll perfect for whatever and.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
If from Want All Pop. I guess Max Martin the
guy to go to, right jes Oh absolutely.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
I mean he's produced so many of the biggest pop
hits of the past twenty plus years. He did Ariana's
break Free. If you remember, Ariana Grinde talked about working
with Max and now he's the one that got her
to change the way she said one of the words.
Speaker 9 (13:18):
One of my favorite most hilarious Max Martin memories and
this man, I love him so much. He's such an
incredible friend and inspiration to me. But one of my
favorite memories is when we were making break Free. I
was a lot younger and I did not want to
do the intonation on.
Speaker 10 (13:38):
Say a ayah, and he was like, no, it really
needs to be like pingy like me, like annoying. It
has to be like saya loya. And I was like fine,
like this le YadA wya And that's what made it
to the record.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
He was like, y, thank you, that's all I knew.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
What a song.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
He was right, yeah, absolute jam.
Speaker 6 (14:07):
We played Style early in the show and he produced
that Yeah too.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
I think that's my favorite Taylor Swift song.
Speaker 6 (14:12):
Well it makes sense for you. You pop album on
the way it.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Was about Harry Styles.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
That's right, it was so clever, So producer Riley, will
this album be all about she and Travis?
Speaker 8 (14:32):
I think that it's gonna be a lot of love songs. Yeah,
But I also think that it sounds like she wrote
it while she was on the Era's tour, So I
think a lot of it it's going to be about
her life as a pop star, like the struggles that
she's gone to. I mean life of a show Girl
as a title kind of implies like something like that.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
So I'm excited as a Swiftie. What's the biggest Taylor
Swift song of all time in your mind?
Speaker 8 (14:55):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (14:56):
Her favorite?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
You mean?
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah, my favorite Taylor Swift.
Speaker 8 (15:00):
I have so many because I have like favorite albums
and then songs from album is yeah exactly.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
That's hard.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
That's a broad question on it.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (15:08):
I feel like maybe like shake it Off for twenty two,
like because those were like charting like pop.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah, shake it Off.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
That was a big song.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
The Today Show used shake it Off this morning as
they were doing the whole Taylor Swift thing.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
And do we predict a lot of sports references on
the album?
Speaker 5 (15:27):
In her lyrics there might be because that'd be funny,
that would be fun And what's the orange thing?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Well, I think that.
Speaker 8 (15:35):
I mean, I don't know why she chose orange, but
I do know that she's been kind of teasing Orange
as an album like coming up, and people were excited
to see that it was confirmed Orange because she had
posted after the Era's tour something that said see you
next Era and it had an orange background.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
So I have to say. I'm on her website right now,
Taylor Swift dot com and if you go to do
the pre pre order, it says ships before ten thirteen,
twenty twenty five, and then it says this is not
the release date. Official release date to be announced.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Will that be announced tomorrow night at seven o'clock on
the podcast?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I have a feeling we'll get release date tomorrow on
the podcast.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
I gotta tell you, Taylor Swift, she's got this thing
for all these little intricacies with her life and her
projects and her albums and her songs and her videos,
all these little hidden secrets. You get the impression that's
all she ever does is work on it.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
And you know what surprises me is that it's in
such secrecy shrouded in secrecy. Do you know how many
people know about what's going on and just like keep
it under wrap.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
You know, there was a.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
Rumor that she was filming a music video kind of recently,
and people were like, what could it have been for?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
And now it all makes sense.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, when and where was she making this new album
all of these songs?
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Where is the video being shot?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
I think in New York, but don't quote me on that.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
And I think she's going to do the super Bowl
halftime show now I'm gonna forget. It could be October tenth,
after the release dates.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I saw somebody say twelve twelve, So December twelve.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Okay, I'm just thinking that the ship the ship date, maybe.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
The ship dates album.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 6 (17:10):
The thirteenth. It's a Monday, so we'll find Okay, thank you.
Producer Riley are in house, swifty.
Speaker 1 (17:15):

They'll have a block party in Roxbury. They're getting a
street named after them. I gotta tell you, we got
two or three weeks between now and August thirtieth, time,

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Minds, what does she stay on my mind?
Speaker 4 (17:52):
How do we have that?
Speaker 1 (17:56):

Iggy Azalia, remember she had a huge hit the song
Fancy with Charlie XCX. Yeah, she said she's retiring from music.
She's focusing on being a crypto entrepreneur.
Speaker 13 (18:36):
Sometimes I'll have the itch be like I need to
get in the studio. I miss it and I don't
want to be a slave to that cycle of promotion,
concert and music industry politics, having to share more of
myself than what I'm comfortable with. It's one thing to
sacrifice those things when it's just you, but I would
also be signing my son up to sacrifice those things.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 8 (19:01):
Though.
Speaker 1 (19:02):

on OnlyFans.

at it for two seconds.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
From the Planet Fitness Kids One Away Studios, we're back
with Billy and Lisa in the morning on.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Okay, a couple of things this morning. First and foremost,
you cannot walk the halls of this building right now
without talking about Taylor Swift. Every corner I turned there
was another group of people talking about Taylor Swift.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
I think they're covering it on our rock station. Wa.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Yeah, everybody's talking about Taylor.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
It's like all over the building. Like you could leave
and go to the company upstairs and they'd be talking
about the Taylor Swifts album announcement last night, which is weird,
huge story. Yeah, and then there's watching TV lately now
is it me? Between The Hunting Wives.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
Okay, which is?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
And then the follow up that I watched after The
Hunting Wives, Unspeakable Sins. I mean, boy, have they raised
the bar when it comes to sex. I have to
stop halfway through because I feel creepy and dirty.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
The Hunting Wives for me is next level creepy and dirty.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
I haven't watched it yet, but oh I just feel
like Bill, those are hot and steamy shows.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah, what's going on in your house? I don't know,
but don't even think about watching Unspeakable Sins.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
Then is it? Wait?
Speaker 1 (22:42):
If you watch that one, more sex than you will
ever see in a movie, a TV show or anything.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
More than The Hunting Wives.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
More sex than the Hunting Wives. It's a non stop
sex in uh. And then I keep seeing Gerard Butler's
name tossed around. I think he's in a big new
movie or something. But on Netflix yesterday I watched Gerard Butler.
Ind I watched it my boyfriend on Sunday.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
We're on a huge Butler or TV. It's a movie,
it's another war.
Speaker 14 (23:16):
Butler's always saving somebody in a CIA mission.
Speaker 7 (23:19):
He plays the same guy in every year.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
He's like Liam Neeson.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Yeah, Yeah, it's intense. It's in the Middle East. Yeah,
he's a good actor. He is Gerard Butler. But again
he plays the same guy in every movie.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
But The Hunting Wives has literally taken over the world.
It's all over my my algorithm.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yes, next level.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
So some of the rails are funny.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
Yeah, it's it's just every every scene.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Yeah, they're doing is besides the sex though. Is the
storyline good?
Speaker 5 (23:42):
Is the storyline is great? The plot is great, there's
a there's there is.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Yeah, Hunting Wives, there's a better story. Unspeakable sins, unspeakable sins.
They're just having sex.
Speaker 14 (23:52):
Like I feel like the sex in Hunting Wives, although excessive,
is placed in a way that is used as a
power move most of the time.
Speaker 7 (24:01):
Well, I do want to win the control people, you know.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
What I mean.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
It's like when my dad would read Playboy, and then
he would say he'd read it for the articles.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
A lot of guys did that. Oh no, well you
don't see the interviews. They have great interviews in Playboy. No,
you're looking at it for the naked women.
Speaker 5 (24:17):
Yeah, no, there's she's having sex with everyone, right, and
that's that's Meline Ackerman.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
We had her on the show, anyone or anything like
she just like an inanimate object should have sex. But
it's it's like crazy, how.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
That's for she is? Yeah? So sex cells?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Right?
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Yeah? What it is?
Speaker 1 (24:38):
So the lesson to be learned as you head out
on your day today, okay, is so long as you're
talking about either Taylor Swift, the Hunting Wives, or Unspeakable Sins,
you're in sync with society. That's what people need to
know today today. That's what you want. You want to
be up at least partially up on any of those three.
(24:58):
And if you want to throw und Her in there,
that's fine. Because the Hunting Wives, everybody's watching it. So
if you're like me and haven't watched it, it's like
a phone mall. You cannot be it. What they used
to call the water bubbler. You can't be around the
water bubbler. If you're not up on Hunting Wives, you
have nothing to say. It's very true. Nobody's interested in
talking to you today if you're not watching Hunting Wise.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
So my wife's watching it alone. She didn't ask me
if I wanted to watch it, So we have our
own shows.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
Yeah, I can say that. Couples do that.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Well, I have the bedtime of a toddler. I'm in
bed at seven o'clock.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
But a woman watching Hunting Wives I was watching it alone,
could change or her entire beliefs.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
It's funny. I mean I could change everything.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You could come home one day and say she's not
into men anymore.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
Yeah, the storylines, yeah, in all different ways.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
I think she's a few episodes in so some some
things have happened.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
Nothing she's she said nothing to me about it, or
yeah nothing. I don't think it did anything to her.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
You know, it didn't. She didn't want to make you
feel bad.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
She's not interested anymore.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Okay, she want to.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
Hurt your feelings.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
Let's not go down that road.
Speaker 7 (26:07):
No, I'm sure she's so interested, but she didn't want
you to feel weird.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
I'm against the Hunting Wives. No, here's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Now, she's gonna start comparing you to that.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
Oh this is scary. You've gotta yeah, that's a lot
to compete with. Oh man, you have you get yourself?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Like I wanted to be a lesbian afore watching them.
Speaker 6 (26:32):
I'm never watching the Hunting Wives now it's.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Hey, is it my imagination or we playing one jam
after another on the show this morning.
Speaker 6 (26:44):
Yeah, we had bb rexa I'm good earlier. I love
that song Kasha right there. Yeah, jam really good.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
And now we got some leftovers. Let's go get them.
Speaker 6 (26:53):

I kiss want to wait, that's what we are. But yeah,
talk talk back, leftovers. We're just talking about the Hunting Wives.
Check this out.
Speaker 12 (27:02):
I just wanted to say I heard you guys talking
about The Hunting Wives a few weeks ago on the Vineyard,
we got to meet Mailan Akerman. That's all you say
it super sweet, super nice, super kind. Took a picture
with my niece and she said that they were open

Man.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Maybe you're geting it on The Hunting Wives. I don't know.
Speaker 15 (27:38):
Oh my god, I watched or started to watch The
Hunting Wives last night on your recommendation. I got about
halfway through, I just found it too creepy. I'm not apprude.
It wasn't the sex so much, it was just the
overall sense of the atmosphere of the relationships creepy.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
Oh, it's definitely creepy.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
That's why it's good.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
You got to go into watching it understanding it's going
to be creepy, totally the whole show. She's right. Yeah,
it's like the Happy Gilmore Too movie. Right, people that
are trashing it. You go in knowing it's going to
be a terrible movie, but right, it's yeah.
Speaker 14 (28:17):
Yeah, you can't judge yourself for watching it, you know
what I mean, Like, I feel right as a society like, ooh,
maybe I shouldn't be watching this, like it seems too much.
Speaker 7 (28:26):
But don't judge yourself for consuming that content.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
That was a show.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Yeah, exactly, that's right.

this week of David Justice. That's Helly Berry's ex husband
who says that he left her because she wasn't motherly
and she did not cook or clean. So that led
(31:18):
us suit into a discussion about deal breakers. What are
your deal breakers?
Speaker 5 (31:22):
Hi, guys, It's PJ Anonymous deal breaker first thing for me,
I'm thirty two years old, a man that cannot grow up, Like,
why are you still out partying? Why are you still
at the bar?
Speaker 16 (31:33):
Last call?
Speaker 8 (31:34):

Just go home, yeah, go home.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
Fair.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
No, I'm sorry.
Speaker 14 (31:55):
If you're like late twenties, early thirties and you still
don't know what you want in life, or you got
broken up with when you were seventeen, you're still not
healed yet, well, like go to therapy please, okay, sorry,
Well that's.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
One way of saying it. Another way is the talkbacker.
And yeah, I agree, it could get a little creepy
once guys are just going out every night, and.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
Yeah, I was thinking, like into your thirties, that's when, Yeah,
it's time to grow up. Twenties are okay? Oh yeah
that's your party era, right, or some guys.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Are still doing it in their fifties.
Speaker 6 (32:26):
True, you know, yeah, they never grew up. Also, today
is a National Middle Child Day, August twelfth. We had
Bruce on Bruce Hotman, who's the founder of an organization
that basically recognizes the forgotten middle children. So this is
their day.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
The union was born because the irony of being given
a holiday, the Middle Child Day that nobody pays attention to,
was just too great to bear. And I felt like
this must stop. They're giving us this holiday. Let's let's
try to get some attention. So that is the mission
of the International Middle Child Day.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Yeah, the forgotten ones.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
You know, he DMD all of us and he said
that is an Instagram was blowing up. Oh good for him, Yeah,
really blowing up.
Speaker 6 (33:04):
Oh okay. Well we also got Alex Costa on that's
Billy's son who is a middle child, and we had
to ask him do you feel forgotten? Do you feel
like you know a middle child?
Speaker 4 (33:16):
I felt like a forgotten child. I mean, my older
brother was the firstborn and my younger brother.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Was the baby.
Speaker 4 (33:22):
So what does that leave oh, am I.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Yeah, I have no doubt knowing my son Alex, since
I do. He was positioning himself for some sort of
a payout.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
Yes, well yeah, well he has a lot of trips
coming up, so but he is a middle child.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
This is Doug. Every year, my mom and I were
both middle children, so we celebrate National Middle Child Day.
We used to do ice cream, but as I've gotten older,
we started to do drinks. So Mom for listening, cheers
and having National Middle Child Day.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
I have a question, since my parents are both middle children,
should I call them today? No, I wish come.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
You know, they won't even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:59):
Yeah, my parents haven't reached out today yet. Night.
Speaker 6 (34:03):
And it's nice a Doug that he celebrates with his
mom every year. Yeah, get off for drinks. That's cool.
I remember Doug, you know, I remember Doug when he
was just a chubby little kid.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
By the way, somebody needs to tell Bruce the founder
it's not really a holiday.
Speaker 6 (34:20):
Listen. If you missed the interview, check out the podcast.
It's actually really entertaining. You can find that in the
iHeartRadio app. You just searched Billy and Lisa in the morning.
Any other questions.

it yesterday. We've got Karen Reid's lawyer coming on the show.
