first off, how was the wedding this weekend?

I officiated my first wedding successfully. I married two people.

sure of that you have to have a personial marry.
Speaker 4 (00:18):
But actually, as you're saying that, I'm like, shoot, I
need to remember to send in the marriage license.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
Oh wait, I gotta write myself a note you. So,
I guess that's one thing I forgot to tell you.
That is the one thing that when I started doing weddings,
I was warned by the people from that church that
we all do the.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Mail in Universal Life Church.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
They on their paperwork, they say many times people's mistake
is that they're supposed to mail in the thing. Yeah,
it's not a bad idea to have the couple be
the responsible party so that if they don't mail it in,
it's not your responsible.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Well, it is in my possession.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
I have it, So I guess I'm respond five to
go to the post office anyway, today.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
The post office, Today's Columbus.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Got I got to change on my to do list.
But it was great. It was a beautiful wedding.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
I got through the the officiating part and we had
a great time. And then my kids, Lucy and Smith
were a junior junior bridal party junior bridesmaid and junior groomsmen,
so they had the night of their lives celebrating Haley
and Brendan as well. Haley as one of their babysitters.
(01:29):
That's how we know her. And I thought it was
funny though, because they got to hang with the bridal
party all day. So all the girls, all the guys,
and my kids, we are very I talked to them
a lot about vaping and smoking and those sorts of
things and how they're really really bad for you, and
I hope you guys never pick up this habit, so
(01:51):
they are very aware. I've told stories in the past
of Smith walking up to people who are smoking and
he's like, you're gonna die love that, And I always
tell him, Okay, we don't, we don't go that, we.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Don't go that far, but okay, you're like, yeah, you're
listening to me right.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Well, at some point during the wedding reception, all of
the groomsmen and the bridesmaids had a room that they
had gotten ready in. All their stuff was in there,
and so my kids were in and out of the
reception and then hanging out in there because there was
a TV. So they were watching TV with some of
the like ring bearers and stuff, and somehow they found
(02:28):
they realized that many members of the bridal party vaped
or did zins or had tobacco whatever it was. My
kids saw it and went around, collected it all and
hid it to protect them so that they wouldn't die.
(02:48):
And then Smith came up to me and he's like,
I'm going to tell their moms, because all the parents
were there, I'm going to tell their moms that their
kids vape.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I was like, Smith, I'm pretty suh her.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
They're aware.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
But so it was confiscation.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I'm sure they all because we left before the end
because it went late. I'm sure they all came back
and were like, where's my dre's my stuff?
Speaker 3 (03:13):
I don't even know.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
In the car on the way home that they told
me they hit everything.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I'm like, I notice that the bridal party was jittery
during the time they were doing this, and they're like,
what the hell's going on?
Speaker 6 (03:26):
I used to do this when I was younger, when
I was like a smaller, like very small child, younger
than even Smith is. At this age, my dad used
to smoke, and his mom used to smoke. My grandmother
and whenever I used to see like Heartens and Newports,
whatever the hell they had laying around the house, shout
out the Newports, shout out to Newports marine bikes, green
box with the white tip. I used to hide them.
(03:47):
I remember like breaking them in half and like leaving
them there. I think my grandma beat the hell out
of me one day.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
I paid money for these. You don't miss it.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
She was cigarette as a mom.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
I'm proud, like they got they get the message, but
also slightly embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I was the opposite of this.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
I used to steal my parents alcohol and cigarettes and
use it when I was a kid, Like I didn't
look at it like that, like my mom was a
smoker and my mom and dad were drinkers. But I
used to like, man, I was like, give me some
of that. I wanted some puff Puff Puff pass originated
when I think it was like, maybe ten.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
You are insane. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
So Here's the interesting thing with this is that Smith
and Lucy now have older siblings because of this, you know,
this marriage that you got, you guys got into.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Do any of those kids do it yet? Or no?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Because wait till well let me tell you, wait till
they go to college and do that. Because I because
my kid was supposedly an athlete too. Now he's zinning
and sinning and doing all the rest of this stuff.
I think it's something with East Lancing. I think what
they do is. I think in East Lancing they give
you a spartan's shirt to go to all the games
and a pack of or a carton of or whatever
(04:59):
it is, the little plastic thing, circular thing.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Did you zen it all? Did you send her smoking
in college?
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I've no, I don't really, I've never really smoked, but
I did one zin.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
I ended up throwing it up. You vape it all? No,
I never done that. You never shout out to as.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I've done it before. But I don't like do it.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
I feel like I feel like even the goodie kids
are the kids that are doing all this well.
Speaker 3 (05:22):

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:25):

Speaker 8 (05:44):
My mom used to smoke and I kept telling her
that she.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Was gonna murder me.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
What do you mean, murder you? Because you thought she
was gonna die.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
She was smoking around me. Oh, she was murdering you,
and you thought you were going to die because of
the the smoke that you were getting, the secondhand smoke.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You're murdering me.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
By the way, back in the day, I don't know
how old you are, Lynn, but back in the day,
parents would smoke in cars.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
Kids listen, Andre in fourth grade, I don't know, I
don't remember your last name. Every time he came to school,
his coat smell like a car in the cigare.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Oh believe me, now, it's weed. How many kids do
you see? I bet you teachers see this, And if
you're a teacher, you got to call it out. Kids
come to school smelling like weed because their parents think
that it's fine, but they're in the car smoking with this.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Now the cracked window you think is getting the air. Now,
the worst is.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
It gets in the air conditioning system, Like we're If
you smoke in there long enough, you don't even need
to have you smoking in the car. You could smell
it when you pump up the heat in that car.
What's up, Taylor, how you doing?
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (06:50):
Good morning. So when I was eight, my mom passed
away due to an overdose. Fifteen, her mother also passed away.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
We're sorry overdose, man.
Speaker 8 (07:00):
Yeah, I know, sad story, and I'm saying it with
a smile on my face because I love their memory.
I kind of live for them. Anyway. I was convinced
that if I started smoking, then I would it was
gonna one was gonna lead to another, and I was
gonna end up dead just like them. And so I
didn't do anything throughout high school. And then when I
was eighteen, I don't know if something clicked and someone
(07:22):
finally tear pressured me into doing it. So I started smoking.
And it was just really funny because now my sister,
who's fourteen, my youngest sister. Every time I see here.
She sees me at my babe and she's like, Taylor,
that bad.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
You're not supposed to do that.
Speaker 8 (07:39):
You know, choking around like a kid.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Taylor.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
You know, you know the goal in life is obviously
to stop generational hurt. The way you stop it is
to not imitate it. I love that you love their memory,
but man to know that they've gone too soon because
of those those horrible habits.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
I definitely have to be better than they were. You know,
I've had my own salt.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
And it's tough. It's an addiction. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (08:08):
I really prided myself on knowing that I have stayed
so much stronger. I've actually out at this point.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Keep trying, Taylor. We love you.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Take care of yourself. Thank you for sharing with us. Kayla,
you have a question.
Speaker 8 (08:21):
Lydia says, Yeah, so I've heard you guys mention it before.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
But what are.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Zen Oh what are zin's?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Zin's? Are zin's are or?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
No? What do they call them? They call them? You're
in between your lip tampons?
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (08:42):
There nicotine patches or pouches that do you remember the
day when they used to be dipping and people would
have them in a pouch.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It was like, uh oh yeah, yeah. I forget what
they used to call those things. What were they? What
were they called that when they when the dip was
in a in a pouch? It was bandits.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I think they were called something like that, free dates bandits,
but they have they're basically little nicotine pouches. It's just
pure nicotine that everybody likes to stick in their mouth
and they look like douchebags when they do it.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
So I'm and I'm not gonna lie to I'm not
gonna lie.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I've tried it twice in my life and I've gotten
sick both times, so it's not happening ever again.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Stop it, Tommy.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Yeah, I think now from from now on, I'm just
gonna go straight to meth.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
And we're gonna we're.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Gonna start cooking. Is math Monday. What's going on?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
How you doing? Mary?
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Hey, how are you guys? Good morning?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Good morning? What's going on? Well?
Speaker 7 (09:39):
I am a nurse. I work at one of the
local children's hospitals here in Michigan, and we have parents
that will actually like go outside into their car the
parking garage and it's like smoke weed and then they'll
come back inside to their kids that are, you know,
in the hospital, and it'll just reek up everything you
(10:00):
can smell, like the trail of marijuana. And I'm not
against it by any means, but it's like.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Doing it around their kids they're sick, you know the.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
Hospital, like, yeah, there's getting high.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Where's the oldor liss we where's the what's going on? Edibles?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
They will if they if they want to be responsible
to their kids that are sick in the hospital, do
an edible instead of breeze pen.
Speaker 8 (10:28):
Yeahs have no smell, not really spell anybody.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Do we know if the breeze pen you can you
still get the effects of it, uh around you if
if it's on you or no, it may not smell,
but can it affect the kids?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I don't think so. Well.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
The problem though, is you're smoking, and come on, you
have to think that the stuff that comes out of
your mouth that goes into the air is getting to
somebody else.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
You shouldn't do it around your kid.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Want to it out.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
You shouldn't be allowed to smoke anywhere around at children's hospital.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
You would think right anyway, why like even in the
ground parking would be a smokeless zone. But especially like
the people that work at the hospital. Can you mention
work in the hospital. You passed through these hospitals. Sometimes
they'd be on break smoking. They got right, what's what's up, Trace,
how you doing?
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Good morning?
Speaker 4 (11:15):
How are you guys?
Speaker 1 (11:16):
We're good. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I'm Bianca's friends.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
Hey, sister, Hey, So I have a horror story about
dip that you guys were just talking about.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
So, my dad he used to like when I was younger.

He used to what do you call it, Like, do dip?
I don't know, with the pouches. Yeah, he would dip.
Yeah you did. Yeah, So he used to dip.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
So he would like spit it into like a water bottle, okay,
and like, you know, do you like in the in
the car or whatever.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Well, my sister thought it was doctor pepper. Pepper started
being chunky.
Speaker 7 (11:56):
He grew up out of the window of the car.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I would like, yeah, O, my god, God, that's the worst.
That is that is the worst?
Speaker 2 (12:08):

like I have that taste in my mouth right now,
and I'm gonna have it all morning.
