Speaker 4 (00:47):
Here's today's episode of the Castle Podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
So yeah you hello, brothers.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
We're on a break. We're on a break, another break,
break break.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
We are on our first We're on our first break,
and I'm happy to get a tour.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
I'd like to title this first break break smake.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Yeah, because I'm thinking of everybody out there and listening
land are probably going, yeah, okay, so they're on a break,
Like what are they doing on a break? Are they
just eating and sleeping or you know exactly. I think
that we're going to have three pretty crazy, diverse things
that we've all been doing on the break.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
You know, for me, I'll go first. It's all a matter.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
It's like, before I even go on the leg of
the Happy Together tour, I make all these appointments for
dentists and doctors and everything that you need to get
done that we don't have any time to do. If
you don't literally make the appointment, then it's never going
to get done. And then when you so I got
(01:53):
home and I'm looking at my calendar, I'm going, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yay,
and so so, yeah, I've been to three dentists. I've
been to a couple of doctor's appointments, and Mitchell, yes,
I am a medical guy right now this this particular week.
And then but yeah, but so today was that as
soon as I'm unnumb.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I didn't tell everybody about your mouth.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Well, okay, so I got that crown foot in there today. Now, guys,
I gotta tell you. So, this was a tooth that
didn't need an implant, It didn't need anything like that.
It just was an old tooth that was buckling on
the edges. And so he goes man, let's just crown that,
and so it's without a root canal.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
This is just a straight crown.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
And what happened today, which usually takes months and gobs
and gobs of money because the dentist does the root
canal and does all that prep and then somebody else
makes the crown. Well, guys, I sat there today, almost
like a three D printer, and they took a picture
and they put the cube of this material that is
(03:00):
the crown, so ceramic, I imagine something like that.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
And they take a square and they put it in
this machine. And then in about forty minutes, this machine
is like going. It's like a lathe, you know, it's going. Man,
it's chipping away at this square. Now it's no longer
a square. And then at the end of it there
is the crown and.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
They just open the door. They take the crown out
of there.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
We go in and I watched it happen, and then
we put it in and it's perfect.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
It's like a statue of a crown in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, that's what I heard.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Statue building, right.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
So, but it was very strange looking, and you know,
and I said.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
To Tom, doctor Tom, I said, so, wow, it's like
a three D printer. He goes, yeah, it's not a
three D printer, it's something else.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It's just one.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
But he goes, but by next year or the year after,
we're going to be three D printing everything. And I go, wow,
So no more prosthetic technicians. The people that make the
crowns and bridges and the full uppers and lowers and parcels.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That guy is not going to be needed ever again.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Young children going to school don't become prosthetic text and funny,
we laughed, and doctor Ton goes, hell, they're not going
to need me in a while, you know. And then
but you did say that they already have a robot
that is that does the teeth, like the robot did
the the prostate. Well, now they've got a robot, but
the dentist still needs to be behind everything and twisting
(04:26):
and turning the knobs.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
The Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah much, it's like they come up. They'll have teeth
that will chew for you, but you're gonna need the mouth.
It's like that.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
And look at so you guys saw this, So all
those three here, so that's.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
All brand new you.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
I didn't have any of that on the whole first leg,
I felt like, yeah, yeah, I always tried to have.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
The mic like right here, and I would sing like that.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
And so when I was up, I'm the only one
who saw that.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
The cat has no teeth up top.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I'm the only one who saw that.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
But anyway, so but that's all going to be over
and it's a great thing.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
And and that's it from me, man.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
I'm just I'm going to take the next few days
to rest actually and get ready to go.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But I do have some appointments next week as well.
It's crazy, it's crazy. So that's me though. That's what
I've done.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I've already make my appointments actually, guys.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
And you know how short the leg is.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
In between this end of this leg and then starting
the third leg, we got to go to Friday Harbor
and I have actually.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
In between all of that, I've squeezed in the.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Last dental appointment to get that guy put in, okay,
and so and that's like on the twenty third, We're
leaving on the twenty fifth. I'll back on the twenty fourth,
and yeah, yit. So anyway, you can see it hasn't
been very relaxing yet.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
No, your break sounds like brig schmake too.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
So that's my break.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
What do you guys have, Susan, you want to go,
I'll go, Oh no, I think painting.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
So we're gonna we'll do my mind's more, you know,
more along ear lines, Paul.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So usually I just do want everybody to know when
I come home my mo and I learned this from
Howard Kaylin. We're home for two weeks. Those first three days,
not a nobody you just stop because you guys are like, well,
you have heard us talk about how our bodies feeling okay,
But it's also you have been in a bubble. What
(06:28):
carts you all around you? Your thinker is just literally
on pause for very minimal activity. So when you come
home to the real world, where there's schedules, times, cars,
places to go, people to see coming going, it's very
alarming right away. So that's what we normally do. I
got home on this break. Now we have our Nina,
(06:50):
our beloved Nina, and a lot of people know Nina,
that's Russ's mom. And a mom was in the hospital
with pneumonia and a blood clot or two while I
was gone, and so so she got released the day
before I got home from break and so came home
to a schedule of you know, because Mom is a homegirl.
(07:13):
We got her home from the hospital. We've all been
taken care of her. It has been a litany of
oxygen tanks, Walgreen runs, padsh meds and and scheduling, scheduling.
I mean, we're looking at we got this big giant
eagle at my mother in law's house, and it has
(07:34):
all of our names on it's jewels. It's Kelly, it's Nick,
it's Susan, it's Miranda, and we are so and sos
from two to six, and then so and SOEs from
six to this, and then somebody's asleepover and then sometimes
these signals get very crossed. And then there's this lady
in the middle of all of it, going, what in
the hell's going on here? You guys know, Sydney's dependent women.
(08:01):
She's been running our shows for us for the last
twenty years that I've been involved. And now and she
is pay owed because what everybody's in her house. You've
seen her house. It looks like a showroom. She's you know,
it's hilarious and like Mom's heading down dementia rod But
right now, Mom's still very much Mom enough to know
(08:23):
that this is all bullshit. To quote her, and I
know we don't usually cuss here, but I'm simply telling
you what my mother in law's been saying. Well, she
says to us, because we you know, we have to
give her morning meds and nightmads, and anybody who gives
it to her, well, in her mind, she's had them
already six times a day. She told Mary the other day, well,
you're the third person trying to ow d me before
(08:45):
noon because she just sees that she's taking her pills
and know we're giving them, and it's.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Well, that's too funny.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
It's been pretty entertaining. And I'll tell you what though.
We've had some laughs and Mom has you know, Mom
knows everybody is. We're not even there yet, but and
she still says she's going to call the cops on
us because we stole her car.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Is she going to lunch still and doing no?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
That?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
See I left, she got sick, went to the hospital
nine days and that chick is not to be found.
We are following around with the longest green cord and
the machine she's on oxygen shifts and ships. She cannot
be she can't walk alone. Yeah, so until she gets
in that bed at night, and and and look she's
(09:32):
up and running. Though she sid's doing good, she's coming back.
She in fact, she's doing too much. She's on blood
dinners if she falls and cracks her head or you know.
So it's been that. So I personally just feel like
I went to a medical facility, my daughter and my
granddaughter to it. And in between all of this, I
(09:53):
got s J and Miranda and we're having as much
fun as we can and and uh really uh. And
then to your point about the next break, I am
not coming home because my people home are going places.
Miranda will be gone, Rust will be on the road,
and it's such a short turnover. I'm going to go
(10:16):
see our dear friend Becky Rosetti. And for all the proclamation,
Becky's not doing it, guys, She's just sailing on, beginning
to sail on. And it's okay that everybody knows, and
everybody does know they've been helping. So I'm going to
go see beck during the next visit and see you
guys and Friday Harbor. So for my summer, I get
(10:38):
a T shirt that says break shmake no break. But
I tell you what, so grateful to be home because
it was driving me nuts being out there with all
this stuff going on with my mom in law, and
I couldn't get back, you know, you know me, guys,
that's not.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So I can tell it's you come a little bit like, Okay, Susan,
shift is coming up? Well where Susan? Well, who's going
to cover for Susan?
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Now you oh oh oh, look looks leaving the third, fourth,
and fifth. You should have seen that. And here's the thing, guys,
if I wasn't doing what I do, I would excuse
the class and I'd be the shift because that would
be easier than all this, you know, coming and going
(11:26):
to the new can and new can't and what we're doing.
Oh my gosh, the pads all the wrong way. We
want them rectangular, they're not. You know, it's just it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
But like a lot of families, a lot of families
outsource what you're doing for her, and so of course
she's thriving. You know, that's because of all of you.
And that's the good news there too.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
It is the good news. And you know, eventually we'll
will outsource. And but that will only be for those
practicalities will always be. Mom gets to stay home and
you know, fingers crossed as.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Long as as long as she can argue with you,
I think you keep you get a keeper.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
I don't think that is ever man. This girl, she
gives us to imagine. But I want to also end
up by saying, I'm incredibly grateful to be home, to
have a great family to help take care of. And
our teams have been amazing, and Nicholas is he's been
you know, right up in there and Miranda and the baby,
and it's been great. So I'm grateful for my breach.
(12:25):
Make okay. Now, along similar lines, but somewhat different, take
it away, Bob Well.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I went to Texas. The parental units took off. They're
not there, and they leave behind the two and the
four year old boys, and I entered the world of
the two and the four year old boys, the Ben
and Jack world, and it's like it's so different because
you know, we have Phoebe and we have Savannah, and
(12:54):
for people that understand things, we're a very online family
in terms of we see each other. There's kids and babies,
and you know, we all see each other's growth. And
everyone's going and we have two year olds around them,
four year olds around and so you wonder about them.
And so Phoebe's the girls, and we get the kids
monogram forsh you need big chairs for the two year olds.
(13:17):
And Phoebe the girls, she sits in it, she watches TV.
She sits with their dolls. You know. The two boys
have each their chair. These become slides, jungle gyms, monkey bars,
weapon weaponry. You know. It's it's like they're one fall
away from like, please don't fall. I can't have a
bump on the head. I can't have a trip to
(13:38):
the emergency room during this time. I can't have any
of this. I want to lock them up into the
toy closet. So yeah, and then and then and then,
God bless him. The four year old who's potty training,
and he goes to school, he's mentally decided that I
need to regress. My parents are gone, that never been gone.
(14:01):
I don't know what to do about this. I don't
know anything about the party anymore. So I'm dealing with that.
And and sure enough Dad comes home and I have
to go to potty and the sentence I dreamed of
for five days. I heard her on his he was
barely in the door, and Ben saying, go to the party.
(14:22):
And it's but they're they're.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
About the thirty minute meltdown.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Well, well we have only once in the five days
did the two year old Jack have a have a
bona fide in his bedroom? Two year old melt down
at bedtime? You know, won't This is how Jack is emphatic.
You know, I won't sleep ever. And he's just standing there.
(14:55):
And then and at this point, I'm a grandfather. I'm
giving in. You know, you want ten cookies? Here, have
tenk cookies?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
You know you want to stay up too? Fine, I
just want.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
They got along, Paul, You had two boys, they got along, Okay,
all of a sudden everything's great. Then all of a
sudden somebody has something that is theirs, but the other
one's decided it isn't theirs. It's there, it's his or
you know, and everyone knows whose it is. But we're
going to pretend there's something. And they right out right
out of the hand, and the fit hits the sham
(15:31):
with the two year old. If he takes any oh
my god, it's so amazing. But then then the two
year old. Jack's a sidekick, you know, he does everything
Ben does. But they'll just run. They have this big
house with a wooden floor, and they'll just run, run, run,
don't fall, don't thank God, don't fall, don't fall. How
(15:52):
do you?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
How did you manage that? Because look, I have one
and wooden floors and she's a runner, and I am
in a pretty big state of perplexity because I mean,
one smack, And how did your two boys?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You can't? You just you pray to God and you
and you honestly hope that they don't hit each other
or anything, because you know what can happen. People fallow
the wrong way. You got to slow them down, you know,
and you got.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
The way rubber and rubber shoes on them right so
they don't.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Slip barefoot, barefoot, their barefoot.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
That's better.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
It's so hot out, you guys, this is Texas. It
is so hot out. We're not even outside.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
They do a lot of TV time? Can stick them?
Can you stick them?
Speaker 1 (16:37):
In?
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Turn the TV?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
I gave Okay, well, yeah, TV time. Here's what you
want to do. At seven am when they get up,
you want to turn Bluey on. And at seven pm
when it's bedtime. You want to turn BLUEE off, but
you can't do that. Okay, So we did two rounds
of TV is all I gave them, and then they
play with each other. You know, they're boys. They get
(16:59):
into this stuff out of nothing, you know. So that
was cool. And it's just changing the diapers with the
two year old every single time. And I did it
every time, and every time he laid back it screamed
for a minute and say only mommy, only Mommy changes diapers.
(17:21):
And I'm saying Mom's not here, Mom's not here, Mom's
not here?
Speaker 3 (17:25):
And is he rising? And is he arching? And doing everything?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Only for a second. All I got to do is
like I tap to take his pants. If I put
the pants on my head as a hat, I win. Okay.
If I if I put a clean diaper, cross it
on my head while I'm changing the real one, I win.
I know how to do them, you know, and make
him still in that setting. I said. Only once was
the meltdown, like am I going He's not going to stop,
(17:50):
He's not going to I'm giving.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
In and you take them hours.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
The problem was simply that his at seven pm, it
was his bedtime. But Ben his brother was still down stairs.
I find out this is the problem, this is what's
in front of me. You know, in the old days,
I would have been laying them down, thinking, thinking the
diaper pin was sticking.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Remember, figure that bel crow is going on?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Why is he screamed? Just never checked the diaper pin.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Don't you hate it when you have it on backwards
and you're almost there and you finally got it and
you realize, ah, now the bell grows backwards.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
And Bob, did you take them to chuck e cheese
or anything?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
You know, they are not of an age for behavior.
If I said, okay, behavior thinking, look at me, like,
what are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (18:43):
You know, no, that's an acquired reality.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
They don't eat. I don't know how they gained weight.
They don't eat. You make these they don't How do you?
Why don't you eat?
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
And I'm reporting to the parents. Yeah, yeah, he's great
to eat and everything. These boys eat food, you know,
they want cookies and we got the favors.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yeah, they're still milking. He doesn't eat. I mean Miranda's
Miranda would only eat Kraft mac and cheese and broccoli
till she was four. That was it. And he said, Look,
no kid ever died. She's she's fine. They're okay pretty much,
(19:31):
always so good.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
But I have to think, how are they gaining weight?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
You do have to wonder. Yeah, it's five days. It's
like and at first time, I mean spaghetti, Well, no
one likes spaghetti. Maybe apparently they don't like this. I mean,
I get the little meals the mom left, you know,
the little frozen dinosaur chickens, you know, right right, I
love those, and but but I introduced boys. I introduced
(19:59):
them to me aprile cookies and uh, maple cookies became
became bounty became bribery tools became.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah, and they.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Know how to take them in the middle. They're so funny.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
They will never for well, Ben want forget it.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I gotta tell you the TV shows. Look, you guys,
they were brutal to Charlie Brown. They abused him, they
called him names, you know, the Three Stooges. Not like
we went out and acted like them. But this is
what we're watching. Okay, these kids are not watching anything like.
They're learning about engineering, community help, uh, you know, solving kindness,
(20:45):
you know, and so all of these shows are teaching
something where our shows were simply entertaining us. Okay, it
was kids being it was kids being mean to other kids.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
The Rascals they always had some money. They were going.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
That was reality TV, you know that that kind of
education with the Rascals.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
We're sitting six boys watching the Rascals and they hit
that sign up on their clubhouse no girls allowed, and
we're like it darn right, you know, like we're.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
All over that. But look that that kind of that
kind of children's programming came in with Sesame Street. That
was the first maybe we should try and teach them
a little more than not.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
You're right, Sesame Street. Sesame Street pushed it a little
because burning in like these are two kids without parents
with their own apartment.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
I'm with you. I think there was some underlying thing
going on.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I'm scared at the door.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
They they were roommates to guys.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Parents, they roomies. Yea, And I.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Mean it's kind of beautiful because you know, I mean,
you you're gonna learn every anything else out there, so
it's kind of nice. They're sending them out with the
idea to you know, be nice.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
But they tried to balance Sesame Street with Barney and
now We're gonna love everybody. So Barney was like and
people were saying, it was your kid of Sesame Street kid,
you have? Mine was sesame? Oh mine, Mine was a
Barney kid.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
You know. My first husband told me he's because Miranda
was of Barney age. He was popular during her time.
And Peter said to me, he goes, look, can my
kid please at least learn to talk before you let
her listen to Barney because I don't wander to talk
to me Like, good warning, dude. You know, yeah, Peter,
(22:43):
I can give you that.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
It's funny.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
I had my kids watch Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
I thought that was probably the most important influential movie
that they could see to help them in the future.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Our children watch The Electric Company in Street Brother, I
watched it with them.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
They watched Street, but those were the movies I wanted them.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh yeah, we saw the real deal.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Reporting on the Blue Generation later as I watched them, Well, what.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
We're gonna want is, we're gonna want you to check
in with their parents, and then we're gonna want an
update from the parents exactly how the kids regurgitated their
trip with you back to.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Them to say, Ben, you know the four year old.
This guy's like doing fifty nine piece puzzles of the
Universe on his on his bedroom floor, real real puzzles.
He's doing computer puzzles. He's doing he's already getting, like
Logan gets where they're I can't explain these smart little kids.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Okay, smart, I got one too, I do. She's doing
a half and she can count back from ten in
the heartbeat.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
You know, you hear Logan and his friends on the
headphones on a Saturday morning. You hear Logan on the headphone.
They're talking. They're not playing a video game. They're they're
writing and creating it, and they really are. You know,
they're going, there's money in that box. Is the room
you go into?
Speaker 3 (24:05):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
And they've got the grid on the side that's black
and white with all the commands. I don't know how
they learn it.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
There's a careers have now a video game?

eight year old and it's so easy because their self
sufficient that they're over I need my mommy here, I
want me now. None of that yeah, yeah, yeah, And
so how is is Claire still playing ball? Yeah? She
her team, she was the championship. They won the whole thing. Okay, beautiful,
(24:45):
the whole thing. And it's so funny because I went
to some games and the softball I'm used to coming
from serious, serious, serious sports. Okay. Never did I get
a sense any of the parents of the softball team
here ever knew the score, ever really knew anything the
record of the team. I even play Courtney and cleared themselves.
(25:13):
A mother and a player were shocked that they were
in the championship game. So you just lose track of things.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Maybe unless those primary players, it still might just be.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Well, think of the baseball days championship game. Man, it's like,
you know, we're packing coolers, we're packing cars. Where the yeah,
oh right, the championship game. Oh I didn't.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Here's today's episode of the Castle Podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
So yeah you hello, brothers.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
We're on a break. We're on a break, another break,
break break.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
We are on our first We're on our first break,
and I'm happy to get a tour.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
I'd like to title this first break break smake.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Yeah, because I'm thinking of everybody out there and listening
land are probably going, yeah, okay, so they're on a break,
Like what are they doing on a break? Are they
just eating and sleeping or you know exactly. I think
that we're going to have three pretty crazy, diverse things
that we've all been doing on the break.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
You know, for me, I'll go first. It's all a matter.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
It's like, before I even go on the leg of
the Happy Together tour, I make all these appointments for
dentists and doctors and everything that you need to get
done that we don't have any time to do. If
you don't literally make the appointment, then it's never going
to get done. And then when you so I got
(01:53):
home and I'm looking at my calendar, I'm going, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yay,
and so so, yeah, I've been to three dentists. I've
been to a couple of doctor's appointments, and Mitchell, yes,
I am a medical guy right now this this particular week.
And then but yeah, but so today was that as
soon as I'm unnumb.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I didn't tell everybody about your mouth.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Well, okay, so I got that crown foot in there today. Now, guys,
I gotta tell you. So, this was a tooth that
didn't need an implant, It didn't need anything like that.
It just was an old tooth that was buckling on
the edges. And so he goes man, let's just crown that,
and so it's without a root canal.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
This is just a straight crown.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
And what happened today, which usually takes months and gobs
and gobs of money because the dentist does the root
canal and does all that prep and then somebody else
makes the crown. Well, guys, I sat there today, almost
like a three D printer, and they took a picture
and they put the cube of this material that is
(03:00):
the crown, so ceramic, I imagine something like that.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
And they take a square and they put it in
this machine. And then in about forty minutes, this machine
is like going. It's like a lathe, you know, it's going. Man,
it's chipping away at this square. Now it's no longer
a square. And then at the end of it there
is the crown and.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
They just open the door. They take the crown out
of there.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
We go in and I watched it happen, and then
we put it in and it's perfect.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
It's like a statue of a crown in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, that's what I heard.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Statue building, right.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
So, but it was very strange looking, and you know,
and I said.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
To Tom, doctor Tom, I said, so, wow, it's like
a three D printer. He goes, yeah, it's not a
three D printer, it's something else.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It's just one.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
But he goes, but by next year or the year after,
we're going to be three D printing everything. And I go, wow,
So no more prosthetic technicians. The people that make the
crowns and bridges and the full uppers and lowers and parcels.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That guy is not going to be needed ever again.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Young children going to school don't become prosthetic text and funny,
we laughed, and doctor Ton goes, hell, they're not going
to need me in a while, you know. And then
but you did say that they already have a robot
that is that does the teeth, like the robot did
the the prostate. Well, now they've got a robot, but
the dentist still needs to be behind everything and twisting
(04:26):
and turning the knobs.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
The Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah much, it's like they come up. They'll have teeth
that will chew for you, but you're gonna need the mouth.
It's like that.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
And look at so you guys saw this, So all
those three here, so that's.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
All brand new you.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
I didn't have any of that on the whole first leg,
I felt like, yeah, yeah, I always tried to have.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
The mic like right here, and I would sing like that.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
And so when I was up, I'm the only one
who saw that.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
The cat has no teeth up top.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I'm the only one who saw that.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
But anyway, so but that's all going to be over
and it's a great thing.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
And and that's it from me, man.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
I'm just I'm going to take the next few days
to rest actually and get ready to go.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But I do have some appointments next week as well.
It's crazy, it's crazy. So that's me though. That's what
I've done.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I've already make my appointments actually, guys.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
And you know how short the leg is.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
In between this end of this leg and then starting
the third leg, we got to go to Friday Harbor
and I have actually.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
In between all of that, I've squeezed in the.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Last dental appointment to get that guy put in, okay,
and so and that's like on the twenty third, We're
leaving on the twenty fifth. I'll back on the twenty fourth,
and yeah, yit. So anyway, you can see it hasn't
been very relaxing yet.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
No, your break sounds like brig schmake too.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
So that's my break.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
What do you guys have, Susan, you want to go,
I'll go, Oh no, I think painting.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
So we're gonna we'll do my mind's more, you know,
more along ear lines, Paul.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So usually I just do want everybody to know when
I come home my mo and I learned this from
Howard Kaylin. We're home for two weeks. Those first three days,
not a nobody you just stop because you guys are like, well,
you have heard us talk about how our bodies feeling okay,
But it's also you have been in a bubble. What
(06:28):
carts you all around you? Your thinker is just literally
on pause for very minimal activity. So when you come
home to the real world, where there's schedules, times, cars,
places to go, people to see coming going, it's very
alarming right away. So that's what we normally do. I
got home on this break. Now we have our Nina,
(06:50):
our beloved Nina, and a lot of people know Nina,
that's Russ's mom. And a mom was in the hospital
with pneumonia and a blood clot or two while I
was gone, and so so she got released the day
before I got home from break and so came home
to a schedule of you know, because Mom is a homegirl.
(07:13):
We got her home from the hospital. We've all been
taken care of her. It has been a litany of
oxygen tanks, Walgreen runs, padsh meds and and scheduling, scheduling.
I mean, we're looking at we got this big giant
eagle at my mother in law's house, and it has
(07:34):
all of our names on it's jewels. It's Kelly, it's Nick,
it's Susan, it's Miranda, and we are so and sos
from two to six, and then so and SOEs from
six to this, and then somebody's asleepover and then sometimes
these signals get very crossed. And then there's this lady
in the middle of all of it, going, what in
the hell's going on here? You guys know, Sydney's dependent women.
(08:01):
She's been running our shows for us for the last
twenty years that I've been involved. And now and she
is pay owed because what everybody's in her house. You've
seen her house. It looks like a showroom. She's you know,
it's hilarious and like Mom's heading down dementia rod But
right now, Mom's still very much Mom enough to know
(08:23):
that this is all bullshit. To quote her, and I
know we don't usually cuss here, but I'm simply telling
you what my mother in law's been saying. Well, she
says to us, because we you know, we have to
give her morning meds and nightmads, and anybody who gives
it to her, well, in her mind, she's had them
already six times a day. She told Mary the other day, well,
you're the third person trying to ow d me before
(08:45):
noon because she just sees that she's taking her pills
and know we're giving them, and it's.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Well, that's too funny.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
It's been pretty entertaining. And I'll tell you what though.
We've had some laughs and Mom has you know, Mom
knows everybody is. We're not even there yet, but and
she still says she's going to call the cops on
us because we stole her car.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Is she going to lunch still and doing no?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
That?
Speaker 3 (09:11):
See I left, she got sick, went to the hospital
nine days and that chick is not to be found.
We are following around with the longest green cord and
the machine she's on oxygen shifts and ships. She cannot
be she can't walk alone. Yeah, so until she gets
in that bed at night, and and and look she's
(09:32):
up and running. Though she sid's doing good, she's coming back.
She in fact, she's doing too much. She's on blood
dinners if she falls and cracks her head or you know.
So it's been that. So I personally just feel like
I went to a medical facility, my daughter and my
granddaughter to it. And in between all of this, I
(09:53):
got s J and Miranda and we're having as much
fun as we can and and uh really uh. And
then to your point about the next break, I am
not coming home because my people home are going places.
Miranda will be gone, Rust will be on the road,
and it's such a short turnover. I'm going to go
(10:16):
see our dear friend Becky Rosetti. And for all the proclamation,
Becky's not doing it, guys, She's just sailing on, beginning
to sail on. And it's okay that everybody knows, and
everybody does know they've been helping. So I'm going to
go see beck during the next visit and see you
guys and Friday Harbor. So for my summer, I get
(10:38):
a T shirt that says break shmake no break. But
I tell you what, so grateful to be home because
it was driving me nuts being out there with all
this stuff going on with my mom in law, and
I couldn't get back, you know, you know me, guys,
that's not.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So I can tell it's you come a little bit like, Okay, Susan,
shift is coming up? Well where Susan? Well, who's going
to cover for Susan?
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Now you oh oh oh, look looks leaving the third, fourth,
and fifth. You should have seen that. And here's the thing, guys,
if I wasn't doing what I do, I would excuse
the class and I'd be the shift because that would
be easier than all this, you know, coming and going
(11:26):
to the new can and new can't and what we're doing.
Oh my gosh, the pads all the wrong way. We
want them rectangular, they're not. You know, it's just it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
But like a lot of families, a lot of families
outsource what you're doing for her, and so of course
she's thriving. You know, that's because of all of you.
And that's the good news there too.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
It is the good news. And you know, eventually we'll
will outsource. And but that will only be for those
practicalities will always be. Mom gets to stay home and
you know, fingers crossed as.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Long as as long as she can argue with you,
I think you keep you get a keeper.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
I don't think that is ever man. This girl, she
gives us to imagine. But I want to also end
up by saying, I'm incredibly grateful to be home, to
have a great family to help take care of. And
our teams have been amazing, and Nicholas is he's been
you know, right up in there and Miranda and the baby,
and it's been great. So I'm grateful for my breach.
(12:25):
Make okay. Now, along similar lines, but somewhat different, take
it away, Bob Well.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I went to Texas. The parental units took off. They're
not there, and they leave behind the two and the
four year old boys, and I entered the world of
the two and the four year old boys, the Ben
and Jack world, and it's like it's so different because
you know, we have Phoebe and we have Savannah, and
(12:54):
for people that understand things, we're a very online family
in terms of we see each other. There's kids and babies,
and you know, we all see each other's growth. And
everyone's going and we have two year olds around them,
four year olds around and so you wonder about them.
And so Phoebe's the girls, and we get the kids
monogram forsh you need big chairs for the two year olds.
(13:17):
And Phoebe the girls, she sits in it, she watches TV.
She sits with their dolls. You know. The two boys
have each their chair. These become slides, jungle gyms, monkey bars,
weapon weaponry. You know. It's it's like they're one fall
away from like, please don't fall. I can't have a
bump on the head. I can't have a trip to
(13:38):
the emergency room during this time. I can't have any
of this. I want to lock them up into the
toy closet. So yeah, and then and then and then,
God bless him. The four year old who's potty training,
and he goes to school, he's mentally decided that I
need to regress. My parents are gone, that never been gone.
(14:01):
I don't know what to do about this. I don't
know anything about the party anymore. So I'm dealing with that.
And and sure enough Dad comes home and I have
to go to potty and the sentence I dreamed of
for five days. I heard her on his he was
barely in the door, and Ben saying, go to the party.
(14:22):
And it's but they're they're.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
About the thirty minute meltdown.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Well, well we have only once in the five days
did the two year old Jack have a have a
bona fide in his bedroom? Two year old melt down
at bedtime? You know, won't This is how Jack is emphatic.
You know, I won't sleep ever. And he's just standing there.
(14:55):
And then and at this point, I'm a grandfather. I'm
giving in. You know, you want ten cookies? Here, have
tenk cookies?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
You know you want to stay up too? Fine, I
just want.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
They got along, Paul, You had two boys, they got along, Okay,
all of a sudden everything's great. Then all of a
sudden somebody has something that is theirs, but the other
one's decided it isn't theirs. It's there, it's his or
you know, and everyone knows whose it is. But we're
going to pretend there's something. And they right out right
out of the hand, and the fit hits the sham
(15:31):
with the two year old. If he takes any oh
my god, it's so amazing. But then then the two
year old. Jack's a sidekick, you know, he does everything
Ben does. But they'll just run. They have this big
house with a wooden floor, and they'll just run, run, run,
don't fall, don't thank God, don't fall, don't fall. How
(15:52):
do you?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
How did you manage that? Because look, I have one
and wooden floors and she's a runner, and I am
in a pretty big state of perplexity because I mean,
one smack, And how did your two boys?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You can't? You just you pray to God and you
and you honestly hope that they don't hit each other
or anything, because you know what can happen. People fallow
the wrong way. You got to slow them down, you know,
and you got.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
The way rubber and rubber shoes on them right so
they don't.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Slip barefoot, barefoot, their barefoot.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
That's better.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
It's so hot out, you guys, this is Texas. It
is so hot out. We're not even outside.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
They do a lot of TV time? Can stick them?
Can you stick them?
Speaker 1 (16:37):
In?
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Turn the TV?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
I gave Okay, well, yeah, TV time. Here's what you
want to do. At seven am when they get up,
you want to turn Bluey on. And at seven pm
when it's bedtime. You want to turn BLUEE off, but
you can't do that. Okay, So we did two rounds
of TV is all I gave them, and then they
play with each other. You know, they're boys. They get
(16:59):
into this stuff out of nothing, you know. So that
was cool. And it's just changing the diapers with the
two year old every single time. And I did it
every time, and every time he laid back it screamed
for a minute and say only mommy, only Mommy changes diapers.
(17:21):
And I'm saying Mom's not here, Mom's not here, Mom's
not here?
Speaker 3 (17:25):
And is he rising? And is he arching? And doing everything?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Only for a second. All I got to do is
like I tap to take his pants. If I put
the pants on my head as a hat, I win. Okay.
If I if I put a clean diaper, cross it
on my head while I'm changing the real one, I win.
I know how to do them, you know, and make
him still in that setting. I said. Only once was
the meltdown, like am I going He's not going to stop,
(17:50):
He's not going to I'm giving.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
In and you take them hours.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
The problem was simply that his at seven pm, it
was his bedtime. But Ben his brother was still down stairs.
I find out this is the problem, this is what's
in front of me. You know, in the old days,
I would have been laying them down, thinking, thinking the
diaper pin was sticking.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Remember, figure that bel crow is going on?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Why is he screamed? Just never checked the diaper pin.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Don't you hate it when you have it on backwards
and you're almost there and you finally got it and
you realize, ah, now the bell grows backwards.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
And Bob, did you take them to chuck e cheese
or anything?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
You know, they are not of an age for behavior.
If I said, okay, behavior thinking, look at me, like,
what are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (18:43):
You know, no, that's an acquired reality.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
They don't eat. I don't know how they gained weight.
They don't eat. You make these they don't How do you?
Why don't you eat?
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
And I'm reporting to the parents. Yeah, yeah, he's great
to eat and everything. These boys eat food, you know,
they want cookies and we got the favors.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yeah, they're still milking. He doesn't eat. I mean Miranda's
Miranda would only eat Kraft mac and cheese and broccoli
till she was four. That was it. And he said, Look,
no kid ever died. She's she's fine. They're okay pretty much,
(19:31):
always so good.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
But I have to think, how are they gaining weight?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
You do have to wonder. Yeah, it's five days. It's
like and at first time, I mean spaghetti, Well, no
one likes spaghetti. Maybe apparently they don't like this. I mean,
I get the little meals the mom left, you know,
the little frozen dinosaur chickens, you know, right right, I
love those, and but but I introduced boys. I introduced
(19:59):
them to me aprile cookies and uh, maple cookies became
became bounty became bribery tools became.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah, and they.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Know how to take them in the middle. They're so funny.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
They will never for well, Ben want forget it.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I gotta tell you the TV shows. Look, you guys,
they were brutal to Charlie Brown. They abused him, they
called him names, you know, the Three Stooges. Not like
we went out and acted like them. But this is
what we're watching. Okay, these kids are not watching anything like.
They're learning about engineering, community help, uh, you know, solving kindness,
(20:45):
you know, and so all of these shows are teaching
something where our shows were simply entertaining us. Okay, it
was kids being it was kids being mean to other kids.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
The Rascals they always had some money. They were going.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
That was reality TV, you know that that kind of
education with the Rascals.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
We're sitting six boys watching the Rascals and they hit
that sign up on their clubhouse no girls allowed, and
we're like it darn right, you know, like we're.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
All over that. But look that that kind of that
kind of children's programming came in with Sesame Street. That
was the first maybe we should try and teach them
a little more than not.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
You're right, Sesame Street. Sesame Street pushed it a little
because burning in like these are two kids without parents
with their own apartment.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
I'm with you. I think there was some underlying thing
going on.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I'm scared at the door.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
They they were roommates to guys.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Parents, they roomies. Yea, And I.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Mean it's kind of beautiful because you know, I mean,
you you're gonna learn every anything else out there, so
it's kind of nice. They're sending them out with the
idea to you know, be nice.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
But they tried to balance Sesame Street with Barney and
now We're gonna love everybody. So Barney was like and
people were saying, it was your kid of Sesame Street kid,
you have? Mine was sesame? Oh mine, Mine was a
Barney kid.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
You know. My first husband told me he's because Miranda
was of Barney age. He was popular during her time.
And Peter said to me, he goes, look, can my
kid please at least learn to talk before you let
her listen to Barney because I don't wander to talk
to me Like, good warning, dude. You know, yeah, Peter,
(22:43):
I can give you that.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
It's funny.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
I had my kids watch Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
I thought that was probably the most important influential movie
that they could see to help them in the future.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Our children watch The Electric Company in Street Brother, I
watched it with them.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
They watched Street, but those were the movies I wanted them.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Oh yeah, we saw the real deal.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Reporting on the Blue Generation later as I watched them, Well, what.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
We're gonna want is, we're gonna want you to check
in with their parents, and then we're gonna want an
update from the parents exactly how the kids regurgitated their
trip with you back to.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Them to say, Ben, you know the four year old.
This guy's like doing fifty nine piece puzzles of the
Universe on his on his bedroom floor, real real puzzles.
He's doing computer puzzles. He's doing he's already getting, like
Logan gets where they're I can't explain these smart little kids.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Okay, smart, I got one too, I do. She's doing
a half and she can count back from ten in
the heartbeat.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
You know, you hear Logan and his friends on the
headphones on a Saturday morning. You hear Logan on the headphone.
They're talking. They're not playing a video game. They're they're
writing and creating it, and they really are. You know,
they're going, there's money in that box. Is the room
you go into?
Speaker 3 (24:05):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
And they've got the grid on the side that's black
and white with all the commands. I don't know how
they learn it.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
There's a careers have now a video game?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yeah, because they have played many of em.
Speaker 4 (24:17):

Speaker 3 (24:19):

Speaker 1 (24:21):
And now I'm in Rhode Island with the ten and
eight year old and it's so easy because their self
sufficient that they're over I need my mommy here, I
want me now. None of that yeah, yeah, yeah, And
so how is is Claire still playing ball? Yeah? She
her team, she was the championship. They won the whole thing. Okay, beautiful,
(24:45):
the whole thing. And it's so funny because I went
to some games and the softball I'm used to coming
from serious, serious, serious sports. Okay. Never did I get
a sense any of the parents of the softball team
here ever knew the score, ever really knew anything the
record of the team. I even play Courtney and cleared themselves.
(25:13):
A mother and a player were shocked that they were
in the championship game. So you just lose track of things.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Maybe unless those primary players, it still might just be.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Well, think of the baseball days championship game. Man, it's like,
you know, we're packing coolers, we're packing cars. Where the yeah,
oh right, the championship game. Oh I didn't.
