Speaker 1 (00:00):
So it was just a couple of weeks ago. We
heard Emily was very offended and hurt that she was
not picked by her son Reid, to be the shadow
parent at his school. They had like a shadow day
where a parent could come and hang out with a
kid all day and see what they do. Reid decided
to go with Robert and Emily, and that greatly offended you.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Yeah, I didn't see it coming. I didn't see it coming.
I thought I would have been the one that was chosen,
but I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
You know, the whole thing didn't turn out so well,
so it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It really didn't. I was bumped to not be there.
I was getting updates all day. Robert was kind of
rubbing it in my face. I feel like that he
was the one that was there and I wasn't.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
At you guys, well, oh no, don't stop.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
That looks like the other only child on the show,
dis Guy's daughter. Are we starting to get a pattern? Here?
Are the only kids starting to be like the moms
need to take a step back, you know, as they're
getting older, we're finally cutting courts.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Your courts are ever going to be cut?
Speaker 1 (01:10):
That's a weird thing to say. But yes, Sky's daughter
now has not selected her for something, and Sky is offended. Yes,
what the heck? Now?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
So my daughter this year, sophomore in high school, has
decided to take journalism.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
What is journalism?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Well, according to her, that's a class where you can
get a lot of homework done, and so that's the
reason she picked it. But if you ask other people, basically,
journalism is the paper, the you know, high school paper,
and they write the articles and take the picture.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, I'm on the story.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Her first assignment was about an upcoming football game.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I'm like, I mean she in the sports part.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
I don't like.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Well, she will like with friends to eat candy and
run around, but she doesn't watch the football game.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
She doesn't know anything about.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Wasn't breaking news. The cafeteria changed the nuggets. Here's the story.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
That would be the story that she could you know,
really get into. Is she the Andrea Zuckerman? I was like,
what really?
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Beat?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
She was the editor in chief?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Of course she was.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
And Brandon was just a reporter. Yeah, I remember he's uh,
he wasn't the cool guy.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
No, that's still was cool. Was the cool guy. They
were all cool.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Dead working at the paper, too cool to did you
did you ever? Did you ever use your motorcycles to
deliver papers? No, come on us that paper to wipe myself.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Okay, Andrea, Andrea, what's your name, It's Andrea.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Are you in our group? Look like me?
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah, both of you are forty. Yeah, that's really weird.
That's really weird.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
So the reason she joined the class was because she
heard it was easy get homework done. But really, what
you're doing is, you know, you're writing articles for the paper.
And that's pretty much all I've heard about a journalist. Okay,
my bad, my bad. So that's pretty much all I've
heard about so far. And I heard like kind of
one of the first like I think it was the
second week of school, they had somebody in I want
(03:39):
to say it was like an intern from the UT
talking about talking to the class, being a guest speaker
about all things writing news articles. And I'm like, oh, well,
that's that's cool, that's a that's a good resource. You know,
that's somebody who who works in the field knows what
they're doing.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
So great. So okay, I don't think much about it.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
And then we have back to school night, which was
just last week back to school night I went to
on Thursday, and I go into the journalism class.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Of course.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
You know, I'm excited for all the classes, guys. You know,
I brought a pen just in case I have to
take notes about it, saying I don't know, I don't
know you guys, I don't know what's going on. And
so I'm all excited, and you know, sit down and
I'm being trying to be a star student. And you know, listen,
some parents are talking over in the corner, like road,
(04:35):
I'm sitting.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
In the back cigarette sho.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Oh my god, those will be in there forever.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
So so you know, me, I am star students, sitting
towards the front, sitting up, smiling, eye contact, all the
all the things I do. And that's when the teacher.
I feel the teacher is I contacting me back like
I kind of got the vibe.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
And I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
David that was different.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
He was mouthing f me, f me while he made
direct eye content and was thrusting. No, David lee Roth
was doing that thrusting wearing like cheetah pants with no
shirt and suspenders, doing.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
That to school.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
No different kind of eye okay, And you guy. And
I'm not trying to be whatever, but you guys know
what I'm talking about. Like when a listener sees you
out in public, you kind of get a second look.
It's kind of like it starts with like a double take,
and then it kind of moves into a little bit
of a stare because they're trying to figure out is
(05:43):
it really you? And then it kind of moves into
a bit of a smile. So that's the look I'm
getting from the teacher, or kind of getting the vibe
could this.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Teacher be a list She's just so excited that one person.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Okay, it was a full class. It was a full
class of parents.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
It's so small. She's like taking her phone out to
like Georgia.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
It's a normal size head and yes it is a
Georgia aquarium sweashirt. So it starts talking like all back
to school nights, this is what your student's going to
be doing all year, blah blah blah blah. So of
course I'm hearing all about newspaper stuff and how great
their newspaper is. And then the teacher tells me and
then the second part of the year, we're going to
add something in addition to the newspaper work, and we
(06:33):
are going to start producing a podcast for you know,
for the newspaper, like a podcast version of the newspaper.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Okay, what's the point of the.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
If you like we're we're moving into the new times.
I guess we're slowly moving into the new times. And
that's where I'm feeling extra eye contact. And then the
teacher says, if anybody knows anybody in the podcasting world,
let your child know so they can recommend you as
a speaker for next semester.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
And immediately I'm like, bro, like nail did like nail?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Why did you nail it?
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Excuse me?
Speaker 4 (07:15):
I mean, I don't mean to be braggadocious, but we
have a pretty legit podcast. We do in the world
of podcast people and numbers like nationwide, we come in
the top one hundred for iHeart, we have some of
the best numbers here in San Diego. It just well,
I'm sorry, I'm in charge of pulling all the numbers.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
And I'm very proud of us.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
I'm very proud of us and our podcast pretty legit.
So immediately I'm thinking, oh my god, my daughter is
going to be so stoked, you know, like you know,
because we're besties, like you know.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
We love each other. We hang out, we get boba.
You guys know this.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
And so as soon as I get home, I tell her,
I go, oh, yeah, your journalism class was interesting and
your teacher mentioned if anybody knows any buddy in the
podcast world, they're looking for a speaker. And that's when
my daughter, just like blank, stares me and I go, well,
you know what, I have a podcast, right, and she goes, Mom,
you do a radio show, oh wow, And I'm like,
(08:16):
but but our radio show is also a podcast.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
We have a whole podcast network and.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Podcasts basically our radio shows anyway that they just you know,
you listen to on demand.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Listen to the one podcast.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
No, no, thank god, no.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
And that's the moment I found out. She didn't realize that.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
We fantasy freaking football recording it today week too.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
She may have had to listen to it for that
article she wrote on the football team. And so I
then explained to her, no, mom, actually is part of
a pretty successful podcast.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
If you didn't know it's it is our radio show.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
You know. I didn't want to talk to her about
the p one podcast. I don't want her to start,
you know, dabbling in there here in freaking stories mom
and dad. Nobody needs to be traumatized on that level.
And so I said, so, I think your class would
really like learn a lot, Like I could share a
lot of information. And she's like, no, Mom, that would
(09:14):
be so embarrassing.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
And I just walked away.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Like mic drop, end of discussion. No, Mom, that would
be so embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Listen, Sky, You're fine behind closed doors with with her,
you know, obviously wants to be with you. Whatever. I
heard her friend's booze, odd stuff going on, but whatever
to present you. Yeah, you are in front of the class.
(09:46):
You are. That's a nightmare if your daughter.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
If your daughter was like, hey, could Eddie, Emily or
thor do it different stories.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Yeah, I'll come and talk to the class. It would
be way it would be way.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Funnier, it would be way more comfortable, way cooler.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
No, this is my moments at Scott.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
You're you're not cool. Sorry you're not. I don't know.
I mean like to put you embarrass her like like like, oh, Scott,
you got to learn, Like listen, I get it. Like us,
my kids have had career days at school or like
my daughter at one point was part of you know,
(10:25):
like the announcements, and so there's been like classes and
things that I've kind of thought, oh, I'm gonna get
out to be part of this, and never have I
even been in consideration. So I know, we think we're
cool and we're a big deal and all that stuff,
but our kids' minds they don't. They don't see it
(10:45):
like that. And yeah, well with without a debt.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
It was making me feel better, Like especially Scott, because
you're on another level, because because if Eddie, if your
kids had a class like this, I don't think they'd
ask Skty.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
They probably asked me or Emily. I don't know what
you're laughing at. You were, but but I feel like
this is worse. I don't know your son was involved
in something like that too, where he was involved in
like the school radio thing or whatever radio, and you
(11:21):
weren't you were being incorporated in anything.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I did get asked once to go to a different
elementary school and talk about my job on career day.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
There is by your son or by somebody else exactly,
which is our point that has nothing to do I
have been asked to do that as well, but not
by our own kids. What we're talking about. I know,
you think you're cool with your's hot Austin Texas shirt
you have on right now, but you are not cool.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Weeks ago off air that she's just a cooler mom. Yeah,
you know, just the cooler generation, one of the you're
so cool that he wants Robert to go with.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Him, which is stunning. So sorry, kid, you're not the coolest.
But this is the way it goes. But this is
the way it goes, so you have to accept it.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
It's this journalism classes loss that.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
You're going to be breaking out hot podcasting.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
I can't imagine Sky talking to a class about it.
She would be so like, you know, proper Sky with
too many numbers.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
It would be it would be so mommy, yeah, god,
oh god, yeah, please don't do that. Don't do that.
So it was just a couple of weeks ago. We
heard Emily was very offended and hurt that she was
not picked by her son Reid, to be the shadow
parent at his school. They had like a shadow day
