Speaker 1 (00:03):
All right, break it down. If you ever have feelings
that you just fons ay and Cat, gotcha, Cob and
locking a brother, ladies and bolts, you just follow an
the spirit where it's all the front over real stuff
to the chill stuff and them.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
But Swayne, sometimes the best thing you can do it.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Jes stop you feel things. This is feeling things with.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Amy and Cat.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Welcome to feeling things. I'm Amy and I'm Kat, and
we are starting the show off with exhibit A. If
you have been listening to every episode we've ever done so,
like you listened last Tuesday and a pe before that,
but specifically last Tuesday, I was telling Kat that some
tangerines are the size of a ping pong ball.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
First of all, good job on saying ping pong ball.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, I practice, because this is this is a court
of law. And I have presented to you a tangerine
the size of a ping pong ball.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
May I hold it?
Speaker 4 (01:04):
You? May you know what you didn't do. But I
have a couple of things to say. One, you didn't
bring a ping pong ball to put this next to it?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yes, I did, and then I forgot it. Convenient convenient, Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I got a ping pong ball from my boyfriend's house.
We were cleaning out his garage yesterday, and I stuck
it in my pocket and then I don't know where
it fell out of my pocket or why it left
my pocket, or if I ended up putting it on
the counter, but it did not make it home with me.
And I'm very mad because I had Exhibit A and
Exhibit B. Well, so now I only have a This
is bigger than a ping pong ball. No, it's not same.
(01:39):
Also if you were to peel it, for sure, okay.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Also, I go back to this is my other thing
that I'd like to say one. Two more things.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
One, what about this one is a ping pong pong
because that's my other.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
This was actually a little bit bigger.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Oh okay, so I did give you this smaller one.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
I have two things I'd like to say, okay. One
is this is not the size that she brought to
show us. The one she showed us was like a cutie.
It was like both of these together.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Period. New sentence.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Why are you defending her? I'm not defending her. I
just think that you feel as though you got scammed.
And in case people didn't listen last week, which we
encourage you to go back download that. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But you're defending me.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Well, I'm just saying you felt like you got got
and you're some idiot that fell for some eyeball scam
where she was telling you that it was the size
of tangerine, and you went around and you were telling everybody,
and you went on Instagram and you shared it and
you talked about on the podcast and you were so
fascinated with your new fun fact, and then you were
feeling so duped and you were like, I cannot believe
(02:46):
I got scammed. And I'm here to say, like Kat,
you didn't like, You're okay, You're not an idiot. Yes,
the dangerines, those tangurines in particular, which I didn't have
to go very far to find, they just I think
they were in my fridge.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I think that I would feel less confused if she
just would have brought a ping pong ball right, because
the point of her fact was that it was crazy.
This isn't that crazy, Like it's a little bigger than
I thought an eyeball would be that I wouldn't say, wow.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, maybe she just heard somewhere one day herself that
was the size of a tangerine, and she thought that
all tangerines are that size, and so she was like, wow,
it's this and so she brought it. And you know,
some people are color blind, like maybe she's size blind,
you know, like maybe all tangerines look the same size
to her. You know, that would be a real problem
(03:41):
or she to your point, she should have just brought
the ping pong.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Ball or checked her facts, which is what I will
be doing from now on.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Right, So there you go. But moving on, we have
a little quick email question that we got that I
thought we could address, okay, at the top of the show,
because what is Walker Hayes saying in our song our
theme song, So if you didn't know, Walker Hayes wrote
and performed and recorded and directed and produced our Feeling
(04:10):
Things song that plays at the beginning, and he says,
Amy and Kat got you covered like a umbrella. That
was that clear, yeah, umbrella? Because Jessica wrote in she said, hey,
love the podcast, ladies. What in the world does he
say in your intro? Amy and Kat got you covered
like a blink? Big blink, big blink. And then she
said thanks, So yeah, that's it. We got you covered
(04:33):
like an umbrella.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Maybe it's umbrella.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
That's a difficult word, because didn't you say you couldn't
remember umbrella ella?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Oh, but you knew umbrella. You just thought it was
hand on your shoulders. You're talking about Rihanna's song Umbrella. Yeah,
I would say, uh, I thought she said in the
song she would say umbrella ella ella, like under my
umberella ella ella, you said, and I would say under
my forever ever Ever it's so good, Okay, So maybe
(05:06):
umbrella is a really hard word to singing a song.
Maybe just sometimes it's hard to hear. Walker is great
with words and rhymes and making things work, and I
think that was a little clever line he did there,
like we've got you covered like an umbrella because you
know what umbrella covers you? Yeah, I know. I like
that line, yeah a lot. So there you have it, Jessica,
(05:28):
Now you.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Know Okay, Well, I have the feeling of the day.
Do you need to say it together?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I don't know that we have a thing like it's
time for the feeling of the day off that feels off,
it's time. I know we do the email of the day,
but what email of the day is the email? Oh?
The day.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I think we have been doing feelings.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Maybe one day we'll upgrade to imaging. Do you know
what that is? That would be like when you listen
to the radio show or like on the Bobby Bone Show,
we have tons of imaging because it's a live radio show.
So there's stuff that's like playing, like between breaks and
stuff that Ray, our audio producer, he's back there hitting
the imaging live like Bobby. It's like a stinger. You
go in and out of stuff or in and out
(06:15):
of segments, and there's imaging that we have made like
what your what year? What was it?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Or imaging is like a sound bite.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
If we play a game, we may have music that
goes with it, so our imaging would be well, we're
doing our own imaging, just live, you and me. We
have no buttons, nothing pre recorded, nothing created obviously, that's
why every episode's a little different.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Wait, so we could create that and then Kat could
press Cryocat could press boom and.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Bright there, but the way we roll, we don't really
have buttons yet. So we could s Sham could probably
put it on her phone and then bring the phone
over and then we have play and then it airs.
That'd be pretty sweet, and it would be like like
on the Bobby Bone Show, imaging. That's like but bones.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Wait, why do they call it imaging if it's a sound?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know when you said.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Imaging, I thought it would be like something that scrolled
across the screen.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
You know, how you're using it is audio, but we
call it imaging.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
All right, Well, I do have the feeling of the day. Okay,
do you want to hear what it is. I'm very
excited to hear what it is.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I've been feeling very playful. Oh tell me more.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
When you think about playful, what do you what words
come to mind with that?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
I think about, Well, my cat Maggie is laying here
on our coffee tables. She's not in the use I
think of playful. No, but when, because she's laying right
here and I see her in my peripheral vision. Right
when you said that, I was thinking about the time
that I had a whole conversation with Maggie, my cat,
about how the cat on the cover of her cat food,
(07:45):
who's her long lost sister that's now modeling in New York,
And Maggie's jealous, Like, don't be jealous of your sister?
That's now modeling on the food the cat food bag. Like,
I know you miss her and you're stuck here in
Nashville in a house, do you called?
Speaker 3 (08:01):
But you live a good life too.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
She wouldn't even survive the wild, I know. But also
I think she's laying here with us because she's depressed
because her pairkeep friend died. Do you want to talk
about it? It's fine, sounds like you want to talk
about that. We don't need to talk about it. That's
not playful. I feel like she's sad, okay, Like I
wish the camera could get on her, but.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
It does look like she's in mourning.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh, I'm telling you she is. She was just wailing
at the top of the stairs where she used to
go like now to get let in so she could
sit by the bird. And now there's no bird, and
she just she's like I have nothing to listen. She
just mews like and so now maybe I could do
a playful story with her about how the bird went
to go a model in New York too.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
That would be so depressing me to be a model.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Right, But that's playful, right, Like whenever I do that
sort of stuff where with my cat or with my
kids where I do playful things.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
I do think if you don't mind, could you share
the little PSA that might be helpful to other people
so their birds don't pass.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
So yeah, what you learned about birds?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Oh well yeah, I mean the running theory is that
I potentially well yeah, I potentially killed the bird. Do
you want to talk about how maybe with incense? We
got it for my daughter's eighteenth birthday. Chris Imsworth was
the name of the bird, Rest in peace. She named
it that. Clearly she must be a fan. She's like,
(09:25):
I hate sense where christen'sworth now. I think she's very
attracted to him. So she named her bird after him.
And I decided to burn incense. I hadn't burned it
since we got the bird, and it fills the whole
house like it's I love incense. And then the next
day Chris was at the bottom of the cage and
(09:46):
then I googled it and a veterinarian had laid out
the top eight things that are like toxic to birds
or yeah, and candles and incense right there. Who knew? So,
if you have a bird, or you're thinking about getting
a bird removed, the can with sense. Yeah, but why
would you burn a candle that? Like, why would you
burn You might have them for okay candlesticks, I thought
(10:11):
candlesticks don't have sense. Sure you can sell you there. Yeah,
but you can have candlesick. Make sure any little smoke
they had.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
The smokers at the scent.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Well, I know they have weak respiratory systems.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That's good to know. That's not common knowledge. No, because
they live in the wild and there's all kinds of
smells out there.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, that's your theory. Can I share my theory? Sure?
I think the bird was like eighteen years old when
you bought it. You just didn't know. Okay, he was
on his last leg and.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Now you're blaming yourself when really, like the pet store,
did they have a birth certificate?
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Also, they could have faked it.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
You can rewrite that story if that helps, Like when
is that we're rewriting it? Just for sure?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Yeah, we don't know what happens. You might as well
write a story that is helpful and not hurtful. You
didn't kill the bird feeling like it did they sold
your daughter's friend old geezer bird.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Maybe Yeah, it was a gift from her best friend.
Her best friend gifted for the bird for her eighteenth birthday,
and I think she wanted, like birds can live fifteen
twenty years. I think she thought she was gonna have
Chris Himsworth forever. And he lasted like two weeks. Okay,
but in my theory, he did last pretty long.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
For a bird.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, you're right because he was oldeen. Okay. Anyway, geriatric.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Barkeet, you gave him a really nice last two weeks
in life.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Let's get back to being playful.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Okay, I'm feeling playful because I'm actually have been feeling
this for a little a couple of weeks. Two weeks ago,
I went out to eat with my husband and we
just were going to We're going to a new to
us restaurant.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
But nowhere did you say new to us?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It was new to us.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Okay, it's not like you said, we are going to
a nude restaurant. We're feeling really playful, so we went
to a nude restaurant. So you went to a new
to you, new to us, Yes to new to me, okay,
not nude to you.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
N E W got it to me.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
And well, actually I had been there once, I said
to us, because we both had not been there together,
so as a couple and the couple, we had never
been there together. Anyway, we were just going to dinner
on a Friday night, and so he got home from
work and I said, I have an idea.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
He said, what I.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Said, Let's pretend like we're on vacation and we're visiting Nashville.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
And he was like, I'm not doing that. I think
he like didn't get it. But I was like, we
can go get drinks somewhere and then walk to the
restaurant from where the drinks are, maybe go to like
a rooftop somewhere somewhere that I think, because I've lived
here my whole adult life, it's like, oh, yeah, the
Thompson Hotel.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
What's that place called? Yeah, the Thompson at the top.
What's it called?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Now, I'm blanky.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
I went on a date there one I know.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
That's I am envisioning that.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What is it called? Jackson?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Jackson.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Yes, let's go there and get a drink and then
let's go walk to dinner and then we can do something after.
And the whole time while we were there, I kept
being like, we're on vacation, We're on vacation.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
And I swear to god, I thought I was on vacation.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Did Patrick feel like he was on vacation? It was
just annoyed because he's like next to even like a vacation.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Warmed up to the idea and I was like, we
can order whatever we want for dinner because we're on vacation.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I love this.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Yeah, I did trick myself. It felt more fun. Like
when we're waiting for our table, I was like, nobody
knows that we live here. They might think that we're
from like Alaska.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Yeah, I don't think that they're thinking like nobody's thinking
about Warner where they're from.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Okay, first of all that.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You look around and wonder where people are from.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
I'm like, yeah, are you on vacation? Are you just
like on a first date? I love playing that game
Finance on the first date? Are you do you love
your partner?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Like?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Are you just with a friend? Like I, oh, you do.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
So if you look at another wondering people's stories, eating
like while, but you don't ever get an answer to
your question. You just look over and you're like, I
wonder if they actually like each other? And then I
go and ask them like are you guys really in
love or do you?
Speaker 4 (14:09):
You don't ever do that where you like cut each other,
write somebody's story.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
No, but I mean maybe I'll start because this is
a playful thing. Yeah, Like it's something you can do
of like just like yeah, when you're on a date,
like make up stories about everybody else around you. Yeah.
I wonder where they came from. Yeah, down under. I
wonder if they just got out of jail. I wonder
what they were in for. Yeah, see how that could
be fun. Yeah, so she hit her boyfriend with a
(14:36):
car and let him die in the snow. Speaking of
I'd like to bring that back up right now.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Well, I have one more place.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
I still want to be playful before we get into
like Karen Reid like you that ignites some drama.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Yeah, people, I have one more So first of all,
I recommend that because, especially if you live in a
city that people visit a lot, I feel like sometimes
I get jaded towards things, and that helped me have
a little bit more fun.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
My second thing that we did was this past weekend,
we did something called Patty Day, which you can insert
that with anybody. It can be Amy day, can be
Nancy Day. It can be Catherine Day, can be whatever
you want. I mean, I would pick somebody's name that's
involved in the day. But what it is is we
started this last year. Patrick, my husband, just planned a
(15:23):
day for me and two of our couple friends from
start to finish, from.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
The beginning of the day to the end of the day.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
He planned an itinerary and didn't tell anybody what the
itinerary was until it was time to do that next activity.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So the day before he texted us.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The first location time and then where it was, and
then we didn't find out what the next thing was
until it was time to do the next activity. So
you just kind of like got to fly with the
seat of your pants.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
That's so fun. I know, I texted you and I
was like, I want of you y'all's friend today. Yeah,
but I mean I know it's a thing you'll do
with those other couples. But maybe next year you can come.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
And I made shirts this year.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
He was jealous of the shirts. I mean they were retro,
like the paint like they were supposed to be, like
you made them or you had them made.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
First of all, I'm now into airbrush t shirts of course,
I bought an airbrush. I took a class and I designed.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
The shirt class where.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
I ordered them on Etsy.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Oh see, but do you see how you get with hobbies?
And I one hundred percent believed that you maybe took
some five dollars online airbrush course and you bought this
airbrush thing and you made those shirts. Honestly, if that exists,
I'll do it. Those shirts were cool.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It was supposed to be ironic, like funny.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Oh I loved it. I thought it was so great.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
He was embarrassed by the shirt, but who cares, Well,
he wasn't going to wear it. But then everybody else
was like, these are so cool, so he woren't.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
He were It's like it's Patty Day. Yeah yeah, And
you look at them and you go, you're on BACAE.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Isidic form vacation again? Because I think people definitely thought
we were from out of town.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Oh with your matching t shirts? One hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
The second well, the third location was a really nice place.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I think they probably didn't want to let us in.
How long does it last? I saw y'all went to
Pinewood Social.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
When to Pinewood Social had brunch, Well, it was like
late lunch.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Which if you ever visit Nashville, that's a really fun
place to go. That was.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Oh and the crazy thing is we got sat next
to a table and they were celebrating a birthday and
they had taped all these green and blue balloons all
over the booth and we were right next to them,
so it looked like I got those green and or
Patrick did got those balloons for our table because they
matched our shirts.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
So extra.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Then we did the bowling there, so that was the
second spot. Then he took us to the one one hotel, No,
the Joseph.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Is that a hotel? You were there? I know?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
One hotel and Joseph I think.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
I think we went to the Joseph and we were
supposed to go to the rooftop of the Joseph, but
our reservation wasn't ready yet, so we went to the
speakeasy under the Joseph, which also has a restaurant in
it called Yolan.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
It's very good, fancy Italian food.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
But yes, we went to the speakeasy and the speakeasy
was really nice, and I think that they were like.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Y'all stroll in with your matching two years.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Yeah, the waiter was like, I don't know if the
waiter was not friendly, because that was the vibe.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
You know, here's not friendly.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Would you look at him and be like, we're on vacation.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
That's where I found the ice cube with the flowers
in it, And you're like, this is your next hobby,
And I was like, I'm.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Already googling how to make these ice cubes. Oh that
was legit. So there, Yes, Cat posted about it so
you can tell people. But yeah, it was like the
most beautiful ice cubes I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Yeah, it was a huge rectangle and then it had
pretty like wild flowers all in it. So I googled
that I'll be making those. So then we went to
the rooftop of the Joseph, which was very nice. It
even had like a sign on our cabana that he
rented that said Van Buren because of our reservation.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Wow, that was pretty cool. Just for people that might
want to plan this themselves, like if they want to
do like a fun day like this with their friends.
And I get that Patrick's planning whole thing, but it's
obviously three couples, so six people like, do y'll just
(19:12):
split the bills?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Or oh, pay for your own stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
You pay for your own stuff. Okay, well I might
have budget, like I can't Patty Day that Wow. Patrick
is really nice. He's reserving all this stuff and doing it.
But y'all go into it knowing like, hey, this is
a fun day we're going to do, and everybody takes
care of their bill respectively.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
But you also could do this and I we didn't
need to go to that fancy of the caban. I
was a little much. I think Patrick just didn't really
know what and it was cool. But you could do anything.
You could just go to somebody's backyard where like the
next it's like a progressive day, like a progressive dinner.
Like the next course, we're going to go to Sonzo's
house and play poetry for Neanderthals. That game, we like,
(19:51):
that could have been one of the stops. Or now
we're going to go to this place and get ice cream,
like you could do this with your kids.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
You know, it was fun.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I love it. So okay, thank you for sharing your playful,
your feeling of the day. Feeling that's right, yeah, feeling. Yeah,
I have a feeling and it's happy, okay, because I
have something that you're going to be like your jaw
might hit the floor about something that I got for us,
which you're very into now you let's let me see.
(20:21):
You'll guess it when I tell you that it's something
that you rejected for like two years, Like I was
raving about it left and right, and you were like,
this is stupid snail snail sermum, Yeah, twenty five percent
off code, which I know you texted me the other
day like Hey, I'm gonna get this and I'll just
use the code. And I'm like, wait, if you have
a better cold, just wait, because the better code is
(20:41):
happy twenty five and I think until May thirtieth, which
I want to reach out to him because that's there's
thirty one days in May, so i'd be like, it
ends on May thirtieth, but I know from now today
is May twentieth, when people are listening to this. Oh,
Shannon just told me, Oh, they have a sale, a
different sale that's starting May thirty first, so it's got
(21:02):
to cut off. So you'll have ten days from May
twenty to May thirtieth. A twenty five percent off is
like the highest percentage that I've ever had for a
Biopell code, and this is a company I'm at completely organically.
When I was posting about them on Instagram a couple
of years ago, my face person Carrie, she told me
about it. She was like, I learned about this, I think,
like on YouTube. Some double or triple board certified dermatologist
(21:25):
was like, put this nail serum on your face, and
she's like, you got to order right away. I ordered
it on Amazon and was so nervous on how to
use the ampules. It is confusing. I do have a
how to on my Instagram Radio Amy, and you pop
the ampules and you can do like these treatments, which
I know something that what you can feel playful when
(21:46):
you're doing the treatments because it's like you're out a spa.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
I'm out a spa.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yes, I'm at a spa. Yes, okay, I like that treatment.
You can do your little poppy little ampule pop like
sort of like you're popping the bottle of champagne. It's
like because it's so nice, the crunch is very satisfying.
It's like, oh my gosh, we should go Shannon. I
think I have an ampul up in my bathroom, like
top Dwarf. If you want to grab one. We'll pop
(22:11):
one live here because you'll be able to hear it,
I think, so I'll do it right into the mic
because it really is it's like a ASMR. Yeah, is
that how you say it? ASMR? It's so satisfying. I
like to like keep on crunching, I know, but when
she crunch, you can crunch the cridle it because I
try to get every ounce out of that that I
can and I'm like squeezing it. But Happy twenty five
(22:31):
is a code they have until well May thirtieth, so
don't wait till the thirty first, although they will have
some other sale, but it's the products that I use
that now Kat really loves too, and so it's a
link specific that they created for my page. But I
love when things just happen organically because I was just
posting out them and they're like who is this girl?
And they DM me and they're like, what how did
(22:53):
you find us? We're just we're like a small company,
like we and they have been like the sweetest and
they've given codes and just really if we've ever done giveaways,
like they always want to be a part of it.
And I have been a big fan for a long time,
and then Kat didn't believe the hype, and then she
tried it and she was like, okay, fine, I believe
(23:14):
it now, So why did I waste all my time?
You need to waste all the time not using it? Yeah, yeah,
if you could go back, But hey, you have it
here now, okay, ready, yeah, we're gonna are you gonna
pop it that way? Have it and then I'll I
pop it that way. I won't pop it that I'll
pop it that way just to begin, and I'll do
it upside. I get it. It's not gonna leak out. Okay,
I'm a snail expert, secretion expert. Now do you have
(23:38):
to say this secretion? We're at the spaw. We're at
the spaw. Okay, so ready one? Two? Wait, I need
to work out. I need to work out my hands.
I'll yale one. Now I'm nervous and I'm like sweating. Okay,
ready ready one? Two, guys, the pressure it's not this hard.
(24:02):
I think I'm nervous. I think I'm nervous. No, no, no,
don't take it out. You don't take it out. You
have it like this and then you put this sleeve
on it to protect it. Right, and then it's not
this hard. I think I'm just nervous. And then I
really didn't want any juice to drip because I don't
want to waste this, because I will save it like
(24:23):
this and I will use that tonight before bed or
maybe even in the morning. I'll link the page where
all the items that are twenty five percent off. It'll
be products that I have used for the last couple
of years, ever since I got to know them and
then started using all their various things. But the ampules
that situation in particular is the ten sage forty and
(24:47):
Shana and I were talking about this the other day
about hell, yeah, it's a priceier thing, but it's a
it's a treatment that you do, and so it can
last ten days or you can get a pack and
save it for like special occasions when you on that glow,
like if you're wanting to going to pretend vacation or something,
or pretenda day. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Also just something nice if you want to have like
a special fancy day. Yeah, like if you're going to
a dinner or something like on my vacation dinner.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And so I just thought it was so fun that
they were doing twenty five percent off for us. So
that is the confirmed code happy twenty five to get
the twenty five and then I'll link that in the
show notes, so you have the radio Amy specific link.
But cool, that would make you happy. That's a feeling.
Happy's a feelings felt like you got nervous, like happy
(25:35):
as a feeling. Right, I am nervous on this wedding
for some reason. Like when I couldn't pop that ampuel,
I was like, huh yeah, I gotta work out my hands. Yeah,
did you used to have those little like yes, my
mom did.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
My parents had them too. I'm like, what do those actually?
Maybe they do work?
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah, I think it's important to exercise your hands, like
to prevent I.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Can't say I ever saw my parents use them, but
I know we had them.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Yeah, definitely. It's probably some infomercial thing that she bought.
Was like, oh yeah, get me one of those or five.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
We had all those kinds of like ab roller things too,
like a little crunch errom machine.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Same, my dad used to do that though I watched
them app roller Okay, those were clutch. So I got
a DM from a listener about the Karen Read case
that I want to share here because we didn't just
get this DM. We got multiple emails, We got lots
of people with lots of thoughts.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
I feel like I need to clear the air. So
read the DM.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
So I read the DM just kind of sum up.
We have a lot of listeners in Boston. Shout out Boston, Boston.
So this is hey me, I heard you talking about
Karen Read on the podcast. I'm from the Boston area,
and most of this area overwhelmingly thinks she is innocent.
There is so much evidence that didn't get put into
these documentaries. Well put I got it back up because
in case somebody hasn't listened last week, I was like,
(26:48):
I don't know if she did it, and Kat over
here was like, she did it.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
But I said, if I was on the jury, I
wouldn't have said she did it.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
You just couldn't. You definitely couldn't for it because there
was still reasonable doubt. Right. Yeah, we're a lawyer podcast.
Now we know the words. Okay, back to the DN.
The Canton PD was already under federal investigation. A cop
was grooming a fourteen year old and got her pregnant
at sixteen. She was found dead, originally ruled suicide then
(27:19):
later ruled homicide and the officer was accused and other
officer's accused of covering it up. I also don't believe
that the documentary showed the nephew of the homeowner that
had bloody and scraped up knuckles the day after and
he claimed that he fell on ice. I have been
watching the trial and the homeowners and their family's stories
are inconsistent. They also destroyed their phones and some cards
(27:42):
on military bases, which when you do that on a
military base, you can't. You can't dig through and get
stuff like that from a military base. So they did that. Oh,
I didn't know why that was important. Okay, that makes sense,
because why not just choose a random dumpsters.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
He was just trying to find a random one, and
that was the random one he found. But to get
on a military I've never done it before.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I didn't know how you was You.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Mean got well, I mean he obviously had access to
the military base. But what's interesting about a military based
trash is you can't go through it no matter who
you are. I guess because like classified. Yeah, okay, that
makes sense. They went on to say, I can't wait
to hear what the rest of the show thinks, because
this is also something that we're doing on the Bobby
Bone Show, Like I had them watch it too, which
(28:24):
we've talked about it, but now we're just doing an
update here. It's insane and I'm not a conspiracy theories
type person. I respect law enforcement tremendously, but this seems
so corrupt.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
And I don't know if you read this part she
said the homeowners rehomed their eight year old dog, ripped
up the carpet in their basement, and immediately sold their house.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh yeah, I skipped over that, but yes, that's similar.
So there's the cop with the SIM card that you
got rid of that, and then yeah, the homeowner got
rid of the dog, and you're.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Like what, So okay.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I appreciate these messages because we got a couple emails
about it too that were similar stories. And I got
some dms of people who are following the case that
sent me some things. And I don't know who it
was that multiple people told us to listen to the
Crime Junkie episode of this, which isn't that old of
an episode.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I think it came out. Is that documentary old?
Speaker 2 (29:16):
No, the documentary is I don't know when it came out. Obviously,
it's gaining popularity right now because it has the trial.
That documentary is the first trial, which everybody kind of knows,
especially since there's a new trial right now, that that
was a hung jury, so it's a mistrial and so
now she's being tried again, and that's what's happening currently
(29:38):
at this moment. Yeah, unless it ended like yesterday, which
I don't know because like by the time people are
hearing this side, I think.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
It's probably still good. Oh yeah, I don't know how
long these are supposed to ast. But I'm having adhd thought.
You know how I was wondering, why would they be
recording that throughout the trial when they made the documentary.
Do you think she got money from that and that's
how she's paying for her lawyers? Because I was really
wondering her defense has to be so expensive to have
to do it again.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Yeah, I don't know. I would imagine that she made
some money from that. And then I which like I too,
wonder about her legal fees, and I wonder if they're like, Okay, cool,
we're getting publicity because we're going to be on TV
thanks to your trial, so maybe we'll give you a
little discount. Do they have a documentary discount?
Speaker 4 (30:21):
They should a documentary discount. Okay, I feel like I
need to do some backtracking.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Go for it.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
I guess when I was watching the documentary because of
the way it ended, even though I didn't watch the
last fifteen minutes, she just seemed, like I said, her
vibe seemed so nonchalant. Again, how do you act? I
don't know what the right way to act is, but
it was throughout like you're you're she did it, she
didn't do it, she did it, she didn't do it.
And I think I just ended on the she did it.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
You know, I.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Forgot about a lot of this stuff. Also, why wouldn't
the documentary talk about.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
The nephew who knows?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
That's a huge piece.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
And I'm now listening to that crime Drunkie podcast. It's
two hours long, so I'm only halfway through it. She overwhelmed, overwhelmingly,
feels so far innocent in.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
The way that they're presenting.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Yeah, and I think she does a pretty good job
of presenting facts. And then when something's weird, they're like,
that's weird, isn't it? And Yeah, if this is true,
maybe I'm doing some digging out my own brain. Maybe
a part of me wants her to be guilty, because
that would suck if that.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
Many people are involved of framing another person, Like I hate.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
That the like we trust law enforcement. We want to
believe they would never do something like this, and that
would really really suck if people that we trust our
lives with are doing a cover this, like a big
cover up like this.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Yeah, I don't wish.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
Her to have killed him, but I wish more that.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
That was not a thing that happened.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
That there's this big of a conspiracy within law enforcement
with people like you said, that sucks. So I think
my mind is also a little biased because I want
this not to be a real thing.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I know, Well, the fact is somebody did it, and
it's like how I don't know what's going to be
the final verdict of this new trial, but it's pretty
it's pretty sad and crazy because you want justice for
John for sure. I mean, she wants that, hopefully, the
police want that. Everybody wants that, but it seems so divided,
(32:31):
like team Pink and Team Blue. I don't like that,
I mean neither because it's not that's not justice for John.
It's not like pick a side. It's just like, let's
figure out if he killed him.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's what they're saying on Crime Junkie, where she was like,
we've lost the plot. It's not even about this.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
The people are harassing his parents, like John's parents walking
into like the court and stuff, and that sucks. So
it should be the people that we're supporting is they
lost their son. Watching that documentary, you forget that somebody
died almost which is weird.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And like for her, she's fighting for her life and
her innocence of like I didn't do this. And sometimes
I know when I see her getting like celebratory in
anyway or smiling or laughing or acting fun, I'm like, hah.
But then years have passed, right, years of past. She
has to move on a little bit, and of course
she wants justice too, but it is a little weird
when she like high fives her lawyer, You're like, wait
(33:24):
a second.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Or or something.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
It feels allowed to move.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
This can be true at once. I can be happy
that something's going well for me, and I'm not. I'm
trying not to get convicted of murder, and so I
can be happy when I have a win and also
still be sad that my boyfriend died.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Right, except for it is kind of she was like
texting that other cop like hey you're hot. Yeah, and
he's like, you're cheating on your boyfriend.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
It doesn't mean you heard.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Her dead, right, And even if she hit him with
a car, and doesn't mean you wanted to kill him, right,
it's not I forgot about this. But the injuries are
weird then, yeah, the entries of the dog bites, yes,
everything's it's all weird.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
The whole thing is just it doesn't look like somebody
got hit.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
I know. We just thought it'd be a fair to
follow up so Kat could proclaim she's still she doesn't know,
because last week she was saying, I'm sorry, Karen, it
didn't mean to be so, but also she could but
also she could have maybe done it, so so then
I'm not sorry. It's just one of those things where
it's like, oh, we don't know, and it's terrible, and
I just would never want to be in that situation.
I mean, imagine like your boyfriend dies and you had
(34:27):
nothing to do with it, but then all of a
sudden you're being accused of murdering him and then that's
now your life and you know you have legal bills
at the imagine that wazoo. And then the whole world
is seeing that, Yeah, you texted some other cop like hey,
you're hot, and then also that you called your boyfriend
like fifty times saying I know you're hooking up with
(34:48):
another woman right now.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
That was maybe the cringiest part of the whole thing,
is watching that guy read those text messages.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Oh yeah, Corine, just central for.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
The world to see.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
Yeah, I would be more. I would throw my SIM
card in the military get trash too.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
I get it, I get it, I.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Get it, I get it.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
I'd be like, I do not want any of the
guy that did it. That's not the guy that threw
the SIM card in. Then it was yeah, But honestly.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I don't think it's why. I say, there's two Brian's,
like the dog owner as a Brian. There's a Brian
Higgins and a Brian something else. Yeah, maybe so, and
they both have goatee's and they're both police officers, so
it gets confusing. But I think one of the Brian's
threw away the SIM card on and the phone and
the military trash, and then the other Brian got rid
(35:37):
of his dog conveniently, conveniently and his carpet and sold
his house. I saw an article the other day this
is a little bit related, but like only six two
(36:00):
percent of Americans would put their reputation on the line
to like be a reference for a friend. I thought
that was low, Like what is the quality of our
friendships here America?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
A reference for a.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Like a job, or put their their reputation on the
line like that would be like if my friend wanted
to come and work at my company, that okay, I
wouldn't say, like, oh yeah, I wouldn't vouch for them,
would be like a good person.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
But would you lie?
Speaker 2 (36:27):
But I think most of my friends would be good
at a job most.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
So what about the friend that asked and there wouldn't
be good?
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Would you lie? Oh?
Speaker 3 (36:36):
I don't know what I would do because I wouldn't lie.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
I would be a character witness or a reference for
somebody that I could do that for. But if I
thought you killed your boyfriend, I wouldn't go and do that.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Well, yeah, but obviously that I killed my boyfriend. I'm
just talking about our everyday friends, like.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
You know, So I guess my point is so, Like,
it's different if you were going to go work at
a job and I didn't work there, Like, if it
was you just wrote me as a reference.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Which can you write your friends as your references? You can't?
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
It'd be different. I'd be like, who cares, I don't care.
I want you to get a job, so sure you'd
be good at this. But if you were coming to
work for me at a company and I really cared
about my job and my reputation at that company and
I did not think you would be a good fit
or I didn't know, I would either say I don't
know or I would say I'm not going to do it.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Wow, that would be hard, though. It would be hard
to do. I think it would be hard, Yeah, because
if I show up and I'm like this lazy, Yeah,
my work ethic is horrible, and then it would your
reputation on the line, and then people don't trust me,
and that could hurt me. Okay. Hold On Shannon pulled
up the exact article. It says sixty two percent of
Americans would be willing would be willing to put their
(37:45):
reputation on the line by acting as a reference for
a loved one's job or apartment application. This suggests that
a smaller percentage thirty eight percent, would not be willing
to do so.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Oh, that makes sense because most people would do it.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
No, but sixty two percent seems low to me. That's
my point.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
I feel like, what, I don't think it's that low. Okay,
it's again it depends. I want more information. I want
to know what job it is.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Okay, Well, I guess it's just this is a vague
survey of Americans. There's lots of chi. I got more questions. Okay, Well,
I wonder how many people would be a character witness
for there that's a bigger deal. Yeah. Well, my friend's
husband's coworker was character witness also. But again, I don't
know if I was supposed to share that. So I
(38:32):
should have said, anybody can nail down who you're talking about?
Have reversed it. I should have set made up like
I should.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
I should have said, it does sound like you made
that not but I did.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
I didn't. I should have said to be more like,
just so if my friend's listening, I'm talking about her,
I should have said my friend's wife co worker.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
Also to add this, who's a man like the wife,
the coworker, the coworker of the way.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Okay, you being a character witness, isn't saying you did
or you didn't.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Yeah, I know, it just sounded like I had classified
information and I don't think I do, But.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
I think you I mean that feel you feel a
little close.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
To the inside scoop? Yeah yeah, how how crazy is
it that I know someone who is married to someone
that works with someone that was testifying in this trial
that everybody's talking about.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
Do you know what we call that? I'm nothing burger?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Nothing burger?
Speaker 4 (39:36):
It's like nothing where you got this like hot gossip
on the case. Yeah, yeah, Actually don't know who this
person is, if it's a mail or woman, what they said,
what they did, how it went, if it really happened.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Is that what you say to your clients when they're
in your office and they tell you some story and
you're like, you know what we call that? And therapy
A nothing burger? Who calls it that? I who calls
it that?
Speaker 4 (39:58):
Like?
Speaker 2 (39:58):
You would never say that to a client.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
You're not my client. You're not talking about like your trauma.
You're like, I got this inside scoop? And then it
was like.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
A it's cool. It's cool, it's cool. Maybe I'll try
to find out more info.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
It's a plain cheeseburger. How about that?
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Okay, plain cheeseburger. No ketchup, no ketchup, no toppings, no mayo,
no pickle.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Well, no mayo is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
I don't have to have it on a burger. But
I love mayonnaise. I love chicken salad. I love mayonnaise
on my sandwiches. I love Could you eat it with
a spoon? Yeah, I could eat mayonnaise. I you know
how my dad uses mayonnaise, or he did on grilled cheese,
reast and peace on grilled cheese. He like some people
(40:44):
butter the bread and then put on the skillet, but
my dad would basically butter it with mayonnaise Helman's mayonnaise,
And oh it just makes.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
The perfect I need to stop talking about it, crispiness.
I'm just thinking about it, and I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
You don't like anything white. Cat hates a race. You
don't like anything white.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I like mozzarella cheese.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (41:13):
I like parmesan cheese. I like Caesar salad dressing. If
you don't tell me what's in it? This is gonna
throw you for a loop. I like ranch, if you
don't talk about the ingredients of it, we're just basically.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
Like mayonnaise with a little seasoning in it.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Yeah, it's like sour cream. Stop but you don't like Okay, Well,
I got that DM from Instagram, but we also got
all those emails. But I know you're getting dms too,
So DMS things are blowing up thanks to Karen Reid,
which I was like, gosh, we should have really done
a major, major deep dive and delivered something similar to
(41:48):
like crime Junkies, and then we could be like in
on this, but instead we're not. We're not a good resource,
so people when it comes to this trial, we're not
a lawyer podcast. Although I might get more info from
my friends husband's coworker, I'll keep you to that and
then we'll have an exclusive. Okay, but I'll let you
know on that.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
The downloads are gonna be off the chart because you're
gonna have this like secret piece of information off the charts.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
But speaking of Instagram, I did want to talk about
a post that I saw Upworthy put up, and it's
unhinged parenting hacks from parents all over the country, and
I thought they were kind of funny and they may
or not be helpful for some of our listeners, and
we can share them with everybody now if you want to. Yeah,
you want to do the first one. This one made
me lol.
Speaker 4 (42:30):
Whenever it's bedtime and they are still stuck on Netflix,
I changed the language to Greek or Polish and tell
them they don't understand because they're too tired and it's bedtime.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
And that is definitely an unhinged parenting hack. So yeah,
if your kids, I mean, they have to be young
enough to not really understand exactly what's happening. But that's
pretty that's funny. Yeah. Oh yeah, you just don't understand
because you're tired every time for bed, so it'll be bad.
You'll understand in the morning.
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Brain's not you need some rest.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
One parent said, we did Cinderella Sundays, where we cleaned
all morning and then they wore their princess dresses to
a fancy candle at dinner, followed by a dance party
like quote unquote ball. She got onto like they were
scrubbing the bathroom, cleaning the house, but then they got
(43:22):
to go to a ball at night. That's sweet Cinderella Sundays.
I'm gonna try that on my kids.
Speaker 3 (43:27):
I'm gonna try that on myself. I hate cleaning. Okay.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Uh. Mom told the kids she was allergic to loud noises,
so when she was overstimulated, she would say.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
She was having an allergic reaction. And then you don't
want your mom to have an allergic reaction, so quiet down.
Another mom hid all of the stuffed animals and said
they ran away because the bedroom was dirty, and then
the animals sent a postcard from another kid's clean room,
and then her kids they clean their room and the
(43:56):
animals returned. Okay, I have to say that is that
is next level thinking.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Yes, Also that sounds like so much work, but it's
probably not.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
But also some of this stuff where like they're gonna
end up in your office, like because you're a therapist,
as when they're adults, and they're gonna be like, well,
one time, all my stuffed animals disappeared and then I
got a postcard that they were at this other kid's
room because their room was clean. And then later I
found out my mom did that.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
To wait, that's like, oh, my animals running away from
me and I don't want to be with me because
I was dirty. Yeah wait, that could be sad.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Right, or like, so what if someone came and sat
in your office and they're like, we useduff Cinderella.
Speaker 4 (44:38):
My mom made me dress up in rags, like we
would have to clean the house all day. But your stepdaughter,
Yeah no, I think these are fun and silly and
they're playful.
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Yes, speaking of they're playful tie in our Also, I
heard one feeling this wasn't on this, but I heard
a girl on Instagram talking about this.
Speaker 3 (44:58):
Chelsea explains it all.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
She gives like babysitter hacks and stuff like that and
parenting hacks even though she's not a parent. She babysat
when she was younger, and she said to get when
she babysat, to get kids to put to go to bed,
you know, it's so hard always like you know, tell
people that they can't understand the language of the TV.
She would have them do a pajama runway show. So
(45:20):
she'd be like, Okay, it's time for the pajama Runway show.
Go put your pajamas on. And so then it would
get the kids to get ready for bed. They put
their pajamas on, and then she would have them walk
down the hall and do their runway and then they
would go to bed.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
Oh I love that. Yeah, I feel like that could
backfire a little bit. But at least he gets them in
their pajamas because they all hyped up and they're ready
for their fashion show. And then they add music. Yes,
and they'd be like, I need a change again, yeah
my second look. Yeah, but then they've got to like
brush their teeth. And I mean I was a nightmare
to care for as a child, Like I never wanted
(45:52):
to listen to the sitter. I never wanted to go
to bed. Really, I was not easy.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
You know something that my mom did from little brother
that helped him.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
This is a hack.
Speaker 3 (46:01):
I feel like this is not that creative.
Speaker 2 (46:03):
Maybe it is.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
When my little brother was in elementary school, he would
have these I don't know if there are nightmares or
he I think it was a nightmare, Like I think
he dreamt this that there's alligators crawling all over his walls,
and so he wouldn't sleep in his bed and he
had like cool room.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
He had a race car bed. You know those kids.
Oh yeah, it's legit.
Speaker 3 (46:25):
I never got one of those, or did you want one?
Speaker 4 (46:28):
No, but the girls had like the little playhouse bed
I had like a little anyway, I'm not I've moved
on from it, clearly anyway. So he would sleep in
my parents' room every night, and they tried the charts.
They tried all the sticker charts and stuff like that,
but he just got so scared. So my mom made
him alligator spray, and she brought him into the kitchen
and she got in one of those.
Speaker 2 (46:48):
Like spray bottles you would use for your hair or use.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
We use them for our hair, and she put water
in it, and then they would put they put all
these spices in the bottle, and my mom was like,
this is.
Speaker 2 (46:58):
Kind of spices. Though now I'm worried his room's gonna
smell like she could have, honest pepper, I have no idea.
It's like very garlicy, a little onion powder.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
Honestly, she could have pretended to put them in. I
don't remember that part. But she pretended to make a spray.
And then before at night they would spray his room
with alligator spray, and no alligators showed up.
Speaker 2 (47:20):
So cute. I love that idea.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
H Then I don't think that would send him to therapy.
Speaker 2 (47:26):
No, not at all. Like my mom, it might be
a little weird when he gets married and he's got
his alligator spray his girlfriend or his wife or whatever,
she's like, what's going on. He's like, I got to
keep the alligators away if he like never grows out
of it, but you know, it's like someone's security blanket.
Speaker 3 (47:47):
Wait a second, I should check in with him and.
Speaker 2 (47:50):
See if he still has to spray. What if he
never he still does it, but he's like, my wife
doesn't know, and like every night he's like, this is
little like teeny Yeah, I wish that were true. Kind
of ask him we need to follow up, okay, like
we need to know an update. And I feel that
(48:10):
that we robbed people of Jessica's note to us at
the beginning, because that is what I pulled for our
email of the day. Remember when Jessica's asking about what
Walker Hayes is saying the umbrella. Yeah, that was our

But Swayne, sometimes the best thing you can do it.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Jes stop you feel things. This is feeling things with.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Amy and Cat.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Welcome to feeling things. I'm Amy and I'm Kat, and
we are starting the show off with exhibit A. If
you have been listening to every episode we've ever done so,
like you listened last Tuesday and a pe before that,
but specifically last Tuesday, I was telling Kat that some
tangerines are the size of a ping pong ball.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
First of all, good job on saying ping pong ball.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, I practice, because this is this is a court
of law. And I have presented to you a tangerine
the size of a ping pong ball.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
May I hold it?
Speaker 4 (01:04):
You? May you know what you didn't do. But I
have a couple of things to say. One, you didn't
bring a ping pong ball to put this next to it?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yes, I did, and then I forgot it. Convenient convenient, Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I got a ping pong ball from my boyfriend's house.
We were cleaning out his garage yesterday, and I stuck
it in my pocket and then I don't know where
it fell out of my pocket or why it left
my pocket, or if I ended up putting it on
the counter, but it did not make it home with me.
And I'm very mad because I had Exhibit A and
Exhibit B. Well, so now I only have a This
is bigger than a ping pong ball. No, it's not same.
(01:39):
Also if you were to peel it, for sure, okay.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Also, I go back to this is my other thing
that I'd like to say one. Two more things.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
One, what about this one is a ping pong pong
because that's my other.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
This was actually a little bit bigger.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Oh okay, so I did give you this smaller one.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
I have two things I'd like to say, okay. One
is this is not the size that she brought to
show us. The one she showed us was like a cutie.
It was like both of these together.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Period. New sentence.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Why are you defending her? I'm not defending her. I
just think that you feel as though you got scammed.
And in case people didn't listen last week, which we
encourage you to go back download that. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But you're defending me.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Well, I'm just saying you felt like you got got
and you're some idiot that fell for some eyeball scam
where she was telling you that it was the size
of tangerine, and you went around and you were telling everybody,
and you went on Instagram and you shared it and
you talked about on the podcast and you were so
fascinated with your new fun fact, and then you were
feeling so duped and you were like, I cannot believe
(02:46):
I got scammed. And I'm here to say, like Kat,
you didn't like, You're okay, You're not an idiot. Yes,
the dangerines, those tangurines in particular, which I didn't have
to go very far to find, they just I think
they were in my fridge.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I think that I would feel less confused if she
just would have brought a ping pong ball right, because
the point of her fact was that it was crazy.
This isn't that crazy, Like it's a little bigger than
I thought an eyeball would be that I wouldn't say, wow.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, maybe she just heard somewhere one day herself that
was the size of a tangerine, and she thought that
all tangerines are that size, and so she was like, wow,
it's this and so she brought it. And you know,
some people are color blind, like maybe she's size blind,
you know, like maybe all tangerines look the same size
to her. You know, that would be a real problem
(03:41):
or she to your point, she should have just brought
the ping pong.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Ball or checked her facts, which is what I will
be doing from now on.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Right, So there you go. But moving on, we have
a little quick email question that we got that I
thought we could address, okay, at the top of the show,
because what is Walker Hayes saying in our song our
theme song, So if you didn't know, Walker Hayes wrote
and performed and recorded and directed and produced our Feeling
(04:10):
Things song that plays at the beginning, and he says,
Amy and Kat got you covered like a umbrella. That
was that clear, yeah, umbrella? Because Jessica wrote in she said, hey,
love the podcast, ladies. What in the world does he
say in your intro? Amy and Kat got you covered
like a blink? Big blink, big blink. And then she
said thanks, So yeah, that's it. We got you covered
(04:33):
like an umbrella.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Maybe it's umbrella.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
That's a difficult word, because didn't you say you couldn't
remember umbrella ella?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Oh, but you knew umbrella. You just thought it was
hand on your shoulders. You're talking about Rihanna's song Umbrella. Yeah,
I would say, uh, I thought she said in the
song she would say umbrella ella ella, like under my
umberella ella ella, you said, and I would say under
my forever ever Ever it's so good, Okay, So maybe
(05:06):
umbrella is a really hard word to singing a song.
Maybe just sometimes it's hard to hear. Walker is great
with words and rhymes and making things work, and I
think that was a little clever line he did there,
like we've got you covered like an umbrella because you
know what umbrella covers you? Yeah, I know. I like
that line, yeah a lot. So there you have it, Jessica,
(05:28):
Now you.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Know Okay, Well, I have the feeling of the day.
Do you need to say it together?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I don't know that we have a thing like it's
time for the feeling of the day off that feels off,
it's time. I know we do the email of the day,
but what email of the day is the email? Oh?
The day.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
I think we have been doing feelings.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Maybe one day we'll upgrade to imaging. Do you know
what that is? That would be like when you listen
to the radio show or like on the Bobby Bone Show,
we have tons of imaging because it's a live radio show.
So there's stuff that's like playing, like between breaks and
stuff that Ray, our audio producer, he's back there hitting
the imaging live like Bobby. It's like a stinger. You
go in and out of stuff or in and out
(06:15):
of segments, and there's imaging that we have made like
what your what year? What was it?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Or imaging is like a sound bite.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
If we play a game, we may have music that
goes with it, so our imaging would be well, we're
doing our own imaging, just live, you and me. We
have no buttons, nothing pre recorded, nothing created obviously, that's
why every episode's a little different.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Wait, so we could create that and then Kat could
press Cryocat could press boom and.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Bright there, but the way we roll, we don't really
have buttons yet. So we could s Sham could probably
put it on her phone and then bring the phone
over and then we have play and then it airs.
That'd be pretty sweet, and it would be like like
on the Bobby Bone Show, imaging. That's like but bones.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Wait, why do they call it imaging if it's a sound?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know when you said.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Imaging, I thought it would be like something that scrolled
across the screen.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
You know, how you're using it is audio, but we
call it imaging.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
All right, Well, I do have the feeling of the day. Okay,
do you want to hear what it is. I'm very
excited to hear what it is.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I've been feeling very playful. Oh tell me more.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
When you think about playful, what do you what words
come to mind with that?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
I think about, Well, my cat Maggie is laying here
on our coffee tables. She's not in the use I
think of playful. No, but when, because she's laying right
here and I see her in my peripheral vision. Right
when you said that, I was thinking about the time
that I had a whole conversation with Maggie, my cat,
about how the cat on the cover of her cat food,
(07:45):
who's her long lost sister that's now modeling in New York,
And Maggie's jealous, Like, don't be jealous of your sister?
That's now modeling on the food the cat food bag. Like,
I know you miss her and you're stuck here in
Nashville in a house, do you called?
Speaker 3 (08:01):
But you live a good life too.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
She wouldn't even survive the wild, I know. But also
I think she's laying here with us because she's depressed
because her pairkeep friend died. Do you want to talk
about it? It's fine, sounds like you want to talk
about that. We don't need to talk about it. That's
not playful. I feel like she's sad, okay, Like I
wish the camera could get on her, but.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
It does look like she's in mourning.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh, I'm telling you she is. She was just wailing
at the top of the stairs where she used to
go like now to get let in so she could
sit by the bird. And now there's no bird, and
she just she's like I have nothing to listen. She
just mews like and so now maybe I could do
a playful story with her about how the bird went
to go a model in New York too.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
That would be so depressing me to be a model.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Right, But that's playful, right, Like whenever I do that
sort of stuff where with my cat or with my
kids where I do playful things.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
I do think if you don't mind, could you share
the little PSA that might be helpful to other people
so their birds don't pass.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
So yeah, what you learned about birds?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Oh well yeah, I mean the running theory is that
I potentially well yeah, I potentially killed the bird. Do
you want to talk about how maybe with incense? We
got it for my daughter's eighteenth birthday. Chris Imsworth was
the name of the bird, Rest in peace. She named
it that. Clearly she must be a fan. She's like,
(09:25):
I hate sense where christen'sworth now. I think she's very
attracted to him. So she named her bird after him.
And I decided to burn incense. I hadn't burned it
since we got the bird, and it fills the whole
house like it's I love incense. And then the next
day Chris was at the bottom of the cage and
(09:46):
then I googled it and a veterinarian had laid out
the top eight things that are like toxic to birds
or yeah, and candles and incense right there. Who knew? So,
if you have a bird, or you're thinking about getting
a bird removed, the can with sense. Yeah, but why
would you burn a candle that? Like, why would you
burn You might have them for okay candlesticks, I thought
(10:11):
candlesticks don't have sense. Sure you can sell you there. Yeah,
but you can have candlesick. Make sure any little smoke
they had.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
The smokers at the scent.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Well, I know they have weak respiratory systems.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That's good to know. That's not common knowledge. No, because
they live in the wild and there's all kinds of
smells out there.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, that's your theory. Can I share my theory? Sure?
I think the bird was like eighteen years old when
you bought it. You just didn't know. Okay, he was
on his last leg and.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Now you're blaming yourself when really, like the pet store,
did they have a birth certificate?
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Also, they could have faked it.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
You can rewrite that story if that helps, Like when
is that we're rewriting it? Just for sure?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Yeah, we don't know what happens. You might as well
write a story that is helpful and not hurtful. You
didn't kill the bird feeling like it did they sold
your daughter's friend old geezer bird.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Maybe Yeah, it was a gift from her best friend.
Her best friend gifted for the bird for her eighteenth birthday,
and I think she wanted, like birds can live fifteen
twenty years. I think she thought she was gonna have
Chris Himsworth forever. And he lasted like two weeks. Okay,
but in my theory, he did last pretty long.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
For a bird.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, you're right because he was oldeen. Okay. Anyway, geriatric.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Barkeet, you gave him a really nice last two weeks
in life.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Let's get back to being playful.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Okay, I'm feeling playful because I'm actually have been feeling
this for a little a couple of weeks. Two weeks ago,
I went out to eat with my husband and we
just were going to We're going to a new to
us restaurant.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
But nowhere did you say new to us?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It was new to us.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Okay, it's not like you said, we are going to
a nude restaurant. We're feeling really playful, so we went
to a nude restaurant. So you went to a new
to you, new to us, Yes to new to me, okay,
not nude to you.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
N E W got it to me.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
And well, actually I had been there once, I said
to us, because we both had not been there together,
so as a couple and the couple, we had never
been there together. Anyway, we were just going to dinner
on a Friday night, and so he got home from
work and I said, I have an idea.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
He said, what I.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
Said, Let's pretend like we're on vacation and we're visiting Nashville.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
And he was like, I'm not doing that. I think
he like didn't get it. But I was like, we
can go get drinks somewhere and then walk to the
restaurant from where the drinks are, maybe go to like
a rooftop somewhere somewhere that I think, because I've lived
here my whole adult life, it's like, oh, yeah, the
Thompson Hotel.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
What's that place called? Yeah, the Thompson at the top.
What's it called?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Now, I'm blanky.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
I went on a date there one I know.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
That's I am envisioning that.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
What is it called? Jackson?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Jackson.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Yes, let's go there and get a drink and then
let's go walk to dinner and then we can do something after.
And the whole time while we were there, I kept
being like, we're on vacation, We're on vacation.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
And I swear to god, I thought I was on vacation.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Did Patrick feel like he was on vacation? It was
just annoyed because he's like next to even like a vacation.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Warmed up to the idea and I was like, we
can order whatever we want for dinner because we're on vacation.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I love this.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Yeah, I did trick myself. It felt more fun. Like
when we're waiting for our table, I was like, nobody
knows that we live here. They might think that we're
from like Alaska.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Yeah, I don't think that they're thinking like nobody's thinking
about Warner where they're from.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Okay, first of all that.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You look around and wonder where people are from.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
I'm like, yeah, are you on vacation? Are you just
like on a first date? I love playing that game
Finance on the first date? Are you do you love
your partner?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Like?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Are you just with a friend? Like I, oh, you do.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
So if you look at another wondering people's stories, eating
like while, but you don't ever get an answer to
your question. You just look over and you're like, I
wonder if they actually like each other? And then I
go and ask them like are you guys really in
love or do you?
Speaker 4 (14:09):
You don't ever do that where you like cut each other,
write somebody's story.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
No, but I mean maybe I'll start because this is
a playful thing. Yeah, Like it's something you can do
of like just like yeah, when you're on a date,
like make up stories about everybody else around you. Yeah.
I wonder where they came from. Yeah, down under. I
wonder if they just got out of jail. I wonder
what they were in for. Yeah, see how that could
be fun. Yeah, so she hit her boyfriend with a
(14:36):
car and let him die in the snow. Speaking of
I'd like to bring that back up right now.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Well, I have one more place.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
I still want to be playful before we get into
like Karen Reid like you that ignites some drama.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Yeah, people, I have one more So first of all,
I recommend that because, especially if you live in a
city that people visit a lot, I feel like sometimes
I get jaded towards things, and that helped me have
a little bit more fun.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
My second thing that we did was this past weekend,
we did something called Patty Day, which you can insert
that with anybody. It can be Amy day, can be
Nancy Day. It can be Catherine Day, can be whatever
you want. I mean, I would pick somebody's name that's
involved in the day. But what it is is we
started this last year. Patrick, my husband, just planned a
(15:23):
day for me and two of our couple friends from
start to finish, from.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
The beginning of the day to the end of the day.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
He planned an itinerary and didn't tell anybody what the
itinerary was until it was time to do that next activity.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So the day before he texted us.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The first location time and then where it was, and
then we didn't find out what the next thing was
until it was time to do the next activity. So
you just kind of like got to fly with the
seat of your pants.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
That's so fun. I know, I texted you and I
was like, I want of you y'all's friend today. Yeah,
but I mean I know it's a thing you'll do
with those other couples. But maybe next year you can come.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
And I made shirts this year.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
He was jealous of the shirts. I mean they were retro,
like the paint like they were supposed to be, like
you made them or you had them made.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
First of all, I'm now into airbrush t shirts of course,
I bought an airbrush. I took a class and I designed.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
The shirt class where.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
I ordered them on Etsy.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Oh see, but do you see how you get with hobbies?
And I one hundred percent believed that you maybe took
some five dollars online airbrush course and you bought this
airbrush thing and you made those shirts. Honestly, if that exists,
I'll do it. Those shirts were cool.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It was supposed to be ironic, like funny.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Oh I loved it. I thought it was so great.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
He was embarrassed by the shirt, but who cares, Well,
he wasn't going to wear it. But then everybody else
was like, these are so cool, so he woren't.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
He were It's like it's Patty Day. Yeah yeah, And
you look at them and you go, you're on BACAE.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Isidic form vacation again? Because I think people definitely thought
we were from out of town.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Oh with your matching t shirts? One hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
The second well, the third location was a really nice place.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I think they probably didn't want to let us in.
How long does it last? I saw y'all went to
Pinewood Social.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
When to Pinewood Social had brunch, Well, it was like
late lunch.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Which if you ever visit Nashville, that's a really fun
place to go. That was.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Oh and the crazy thing is we got sat next
to a table and they were celebrating a birthday and
they had taped all these green and blue balloons all
over the booth and we were right next to them,
so it looked like I got those green and or
Patrick did got those balloons for our table because they
matched our shirts.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
So extra.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Then we did the bowling there, so that was the
second spot. Then he took us to the one one hotel, No,
the Joseph.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Is that a hotel? You were there? I know?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
One hotel and Joseph I think.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
I think we went to the Joseph and we were
supposed to go to the rooftop of the Joseph, but
our reservation wasn't ready yet, so we went to the
speakeasy under the Joseph, which also has a restaurant in
it called Yolan.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
It's very good, fancy Italian food.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
But yes, we went to the speakeasy and the speakeasy
was really nice, and I think that they were like.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Y'all stroll in with your matching two years.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Yeah, the waiter was like, I don't know if the
waiter was not friendly, because that was the vibe.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
You know, here's not friendly.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Would you look at him and be like, we're on vacation.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
That's where I found the ice cube with the flowers
in it, And you're like, this is your next hobby,
And I was like, I'm.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Already googling how to make these ice cubes. Oh that
was legit. So there, Yes, Cat posted about it so
you can tell people. But yeah, it was like the
most beautiful ice cubes I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Yeah, it was a huge rectangle and then it had
pretty like wild flowers all in it. So I googled
that I'll be making those. So then we went to
the rooftop of the Joseph, which was very nice. It
even had like a sign on our cabana that he
rented that said Van Buren because of our reservation.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Wow, that was pretty cool. Just for people that might
want to plan this themselves, like if they want to
do like a fun day like this with their friends.
And I get that Patrick's planning whole thing, but it's
obviously three couples, so six people like, do y'll just
(19:12):
split the bills?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Or oh, pay for your own stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
You pay for your own stuff. Okay, well I might
have budget, like I can't Patty Day that Wow. Patrick
is really nice. He's reserving all this stuff and doing it.
But y'all go into it knowing like, hey, this is
a fun day we're going to do, and everybody takes
care of their bill respectively.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
But you also could do this and I we didn't
need to go to that fancy of the caban. I
was a little much. I think Patrick just didn't really
know what and it was cool. But you could do anything.
You could just go to somebody's backyard where like the
next it's like a progressive day, like a progressive dinner.
Like the next course, we're going to go to Sonzo's
house and play poetry for Neanderthals. That game, we like,
(19:51):
that could have been one of the stops. Or now
we're going to go to this place and get ice cream,
like you could do this with your kids.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
You know, it was fun.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I love it. So okay, thank you for sharing your playful,
your feeling of the day. Feeling that's right, yeah, feeling. Yeah,
I have a feeling and it's happy, okay, because I
have something that you're going to be like your jaw
might hit the floor about something that I got for us,
which you're very into now you let's let me see.
(20:21):
You'll guess it when I tell you that it's something
that you rejected for like two years, Like I was
raving about it left and right, and you were like,
this is stupid snail snail sermum, Yeah, twenty five percent
off code, which I know you texted me the other
day like Hey, I'm gonna get this and I'll just
use the code. And I'm like, wait, if you have
a better cold, just wait, because the better code is
(20:41):
happy twenty five and I think until May thirtieth, which
I want to reach out to him because that's there's
thirty one days in May, so i'd be like, it
ends on May thirtieth, but I know from now today
is May twentieth, when people are listening to this. Oh,
Shannon just told me, Oh, they have a sale, a
different sale that's starting May thirty first, so it's got
(21:02):
to cut off. So you'll have ten days from May
twenty to May thirtieth. A twenty five percent off is
like the highest percentage that I've ever had for a
Biopell code, and this is a company I'm at completely organically.
When I was posting about them on Instagram a couple
of years ago, my face person Carrie, she told me
about it. She was like, I learned about this, I think,
like on YouTube. Some double or triple board certified dermatologist
(21:25):
was like, put this nail serum on your face, and
she's like, you got to order right away. I ordered
it on Amazon and was so nervous on how to
use the ampules. It is confusing. I do have a
how to on my Instagram Radio Amy, and you pop
the ampules and you can do like these treatments, which
I know something that what you can feel playful when
(21:46):
you're doing the treatments because it's like you're out a spa.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
I'm out a spa.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yes, I'm at a spa. Yes, okay, I like that treatment.
You can do your little poppy little ampule pop like
sort of like you're popping the bottle of champagne. It's
like because it's so nice, the crunch is very satisfying.
It's like, oh my gosh, we should go Shannon. I
think I have an ampul up in my bathroom, like
top Dwarf. If you want to grab one. We'll pop
(22:11):
one live here because you'll be able to hear it,
I think, so I'll do it right into the mic
because it really is it's like a ASMR. Yeah, is
that how you say it? ASMR? It's so satisfying. I
like to like keep on crunching, I know, but when
she crunch, you can crunch the cridle it because I
try to get every ounce out of that that I
can and I'm like squeezing it. But Happy twenty five
(22:31):
is a code they have until well May thirtieth, so
don't wait till the thirty first, although they will have
some other sale, but it's the products that I use
that now Kat really loves too, and so it's a
link specific that they created for my page. But I
love when things just happen organically because I was just
posting out them and they're like who is this girl?
And they DM me and they're like, what how did
(22:53):
you find us? We're just we're like a small company,
like we and they have been like the sweetest and
they've given codes and just really if we've ever done giveaways,
like they always want to be a part of it.
And I have been a big fan for a long time,
and then Kat didn't believe the hype, and then she
tried it and she was like, okay, fine, I believe
(23:14):
it now, So why did I waste all my time?
You need to waste all the time not using it? Yeah, yeah,
if you could go back, But hey, you have it
here now, okay, ready, yeah, we're gonna are you gonna
pop it that way? Have it and then I'll I
pop it that way. I won't pop it that I'll
pop it that way just to begin, and I'll do
it upside. I get it. It's not gonna leak out. Okay,
I'm a snail expert, secretion expert. Now do you have
(23:38):
to say this secretion? We're at the spaw. We're at
the spaw. Okay, so ready one? Two? Wait, I need
to work out. I need to work out my hands.
I'll yale one. Now I'm nervous and I'm like sweating. Okay,
ready ready one? Two, guys, the pressure it's not this hard.
(24:02):
I think I'm nervous. I think I'm nervous. No, no, no,
don't take it out. You don't take it out. You
have it like this and then you put this sleeve
on it to protect it. Right, and then it's not
this hard. I think I'm just nervous. And then I
really didn't want any juice to drip because I don't
want to waste this, because I will save it like
(24:23):
this and I will use that tonight before bed or
maybe even in the morning. I'll link the page where
all the items that are twenty five percent off. It'll
be products that I have used for the last couple
of years, ever since I got to know them and
then started using all their various things. But the ampules
that situation in particular is the ten sage forty and
(24:47):
Shana and I were talking about this the other day
about hell, yeah, it's a priceier thing, but it's a
it's a treatment that you do, and so it can
last ten days or you can get a pack and
save it for like special occasions when you on that glow,
like if you're wanting to going to pretend vacation or something,
or pretenda day. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Also just something nice if you want to have like
a special fancy day. Yeah, like if you're going to
a dinner or something like on my vacation dinner.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And so I just thought it was so fun that
they were doing twenty five percent off for us. So
that is the confirmed code happy twenty five to get
the twenty five and then I'll link that in the
show notes, so you have the radio Amy specific link.
But cool, that would make you happy. That's a feeling.
Happy's a feelings felt like you got nervous, like happy
(25:35):
as a feeling. Right, I am nervous on this wedding
for some reason. Like when I couldn't pop that ampuel,
I was like, huh yeah, I gotta work out my hands. Yeah,
did you used to have those little like yes, my
mom did.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
My parents had them too. I'm like, what do those actually?
Maybe they do work?
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah, I think it's important to exercise your hands, like
to prevent I.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Can't say I ever saw my parents use them, but
I know we had them.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Yeah, definitely. It's probably some infomercial thing that she bought.
Was like, oh yeah, get me one of those or five.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
We had all those kinds of like ab roller things too,
like a little crunch errom machine.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Same, my dad used to do that though I watched
them app roller Okay, those were clutch. So I got
a DM from a listener about the Karen Read case
that I want to share here because we didn't just
get this DM. We got multiple emails, We got lots
of people with lots of thoughts.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
I feel like I need to clear the air. So
read the DM.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
So I read the DM just kind of sum up.
We have a lot of listeners in Boston. Shout out Boston, Boston.
So this is hey me, I heard you talking about
Karen Read on the podcast. I'm from the Boston area,
and most of this area overwhelmingly thinks she is innocent.
There is so much evidence that didn't get put into
these documentaries. Well put I got it back up because
in case somebody hasn't listened last week, I was like,
(26:48):
I don't know if she did it, and Kat over
here was like, she did it.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
But I said, if I was on the jury, I
wouldn't have said she did it.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
You just couldn't. You definitely couldn't for it because there
was still reasonable doubt. Right. Yeah, we're a lawyer podcast.
Now we know the words. Okay, back to the DN.
The Canton PD was already under federal investigation. A cop
was grooming a fourteen year old and got her pregnant
at sixteen. She was found dead, originally ruled suicide then
(27:19):
later ruled homicide and the officer was accused and other
officer's accused of covering it up. I also don't believe
that the documentary showed the nephew of the homeowner that
had bloody and scraped up knuckles the day after and
he claimed that he fell on ice. I have been
watching the trial and the homeowners and their family's stories
are inconsistent. They also destroyed their phones and some cards
(27:42):
on military bases, which when you do that on a
military base, you can't. You can't dig through and get
stuff like that from a military base. So they did that. Oh,
I didn't know why that was important. Okay, that makes sense,
because why not just choose a random dumpsters.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
He was just trying to find a random one, and
that was the random one he found. But to get
on a military I've never done it before.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I didn't know how you was You.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Mean got well, I mean he obviously had access to
the military base. But what's interesting about a military based
trash is you can't go through it no matter who
you are. I guess because like classified. Yeah, okay, that
makes sense. They went on to say, I can't wait
to hear what the rest of the show thinks, because
this is also something that we're doing on the Bobby
Bone Show, Like I had them watch it too, which
(28:24):
we've talked about it, but now we're just doing an
update here. It's insane and I'm not a conspiracy theories
type person. I respect law enforcement tremendously, but this seems
so corrupt.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
And I don't know if you read this part she
said the homeowners rehomed their eight year old dog, ripped
up the carpet in their basement, and immediately sold their house.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Oh yeah, I skipped over that, but yes, that's similar.
So there's the cop with the SIM card that you
got rid of that, and then yeah, the homeowner got
rid of the dog, and you're.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Like what, So okay.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I appreciate these messages because we got a couple emails
about it too that were similar stories. And I got
some dms of people who are following the case that
sent me some things. And I don't know who it
was that multiple people told us to listen to the
Crime Junkie episode of this, which isn't that old of
an episode.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I think it came out. Is that documentary old?
Speaker 2 (29:16):
No, the documentary is I don't know when it came out. Obviously,
it's gaining popularity right now because it has the trial.
That documentary is the first trial, which everybody kind of knows,
especially since there's a new trial right now, that that
was a hung jury, so it's a mistrial and so
now she's being tried again, and that's what's happening currently
(29:38):
at this moment. Yeah, unless it ended like yesterday, which
I don't know because like by the time people are
hearing this side, I think.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
It's probably still good. Oh yeah, I don't know how
long these are supposed to ast. But I'm having adhd thought.
You know how I was wondering, why would they be
recording that throughout the trial when they made the documentary.
Do you think she got money from that and that's
how she's paying for her lawyers? Because I was really
wondering her defense has to be so expensive to have
to do it again.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Yeah, I don't know. I would imagine that she made
some money from that. And then I which like I too,
wonder about her legal fees, and I wonder if they're like, Okay, cool,
we're getting publicity because we're going to be on TV
thanks to your trial, so maybe we'll give you a
little discount. Do they have a documentary discount?
Speaker 4 (30:21):
They should a documentary discount. Okay, I feel like I
need to do some backtracking.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Go for it.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
I guess when I was watching the documentary because of
the way it ended, even though I didn't watch the
last fifteen minutes, she just seemed, like I said, her
vibe seemed so nonchalant. Again, how do you act? I
don't know what the right way to act is, but
it was throughout like you're you're she did it, she
didn't do it, she did it, she didn't do it.
And I think I just ended on the she did it.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
You know, I.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Forgot about a lot of this stuff. Also, why wouldn't
the documentary talk about.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
The nephew who knows?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
That's a huge piece.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
And I'm now listening to that crime Drunkie podcast. It's
two hours long, so I'm only halfway through it. She overwhelmed, overwhelmingly,
feels so far innocent in.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
The way that they're presenting.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Yeah, and I think she does a pretty good job
of presenting facts. And then when something's weird, they're like,
that's weird, isn't it? And Yeah, if this is true,
maybe I'm doing some digging out my own brain. Maybe
a part of me wants her to be guilty, because
that would suck if that.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
Many people are involved of framing another person, Like I hate.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
That the like we trust law enforcement. We want to
believe they would never do something like this, and that
would really really suck if people that we trust our
lives with are doing a cover this, like a big
cover up like this.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Yeah, I don't wish.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
Her to have killed him, but I wish more that.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
That was not a thing that happened.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
That there's this big of a conspiracy within law enforcement
with people like you said, that sucks. So I think
my mind is also a little biased because I want
this not to be a real thing.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I know, Well, the fact is somebody did it, and
it's like how I don't know what's going to be
the final verdict of this new trial, but it's pretty
it's pretty sad and crazy because you want justice for
John for sure. I mean, she wants that, hopefully, the
police want that. Everybody wants that, but it seems so divided,
(32:31):
like team Pink and Team Blue. I don't like that,
I mean neither because it's not that's not justice for John.
It's not like pick a side. It's just like, let's
figure out if he killed him.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's what they're saying on Crime Junkie, where she was like,
we've lost the plot. It's not even about this.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
The people are harassing his parents, like John's parents walking
into like the court and stuff, and that sucks. So
it should be the people that we're supporting is they
lost their son. Watching that documentary, you forget that somebody
died almost which is weird.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And like for her, she's fighting for her life and
her innocence of like I didn't do this. And sometimes
I know when I see her getting like celebratory in
anyway or smiling or laughing or acting fun, I'm like, hah.
But then years have passed, right, years of past. She
has to move on a little bit, and of course
she wants justice too, but it is a little weird
when she like high fives her lawyer, You're like, wait
(33:24):
a second.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Or or something.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
It feels allowed to move.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
This can be true at once. I can be happy
that something's going well for me, and I'm not. I'm
trying not to get convicted of murder, and so I
can be happy when I have a win and also
still be sad that my boyfriend died.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Right, except for it is kind of she was like
texting that other cop like hey you're hot. Yeah, and
he's like, you're cheating on your boyfriend.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
It doesn't mean you heard.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Her dead, right, And even if she hit him with
a car, and doesn't mean you wanted to kill him, right,
it's not I forgot about this. But the injuries are
weird then, yeah, the entries of the dog bites, yes,
everything's it's all weird.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
The whole thing is just it doesn't look like somebody
got hit.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
I know. We just thought it'd be a fair to
follow up so Kat could proclaim she's still she doesn't know,
because last week she was saying, I'm sorry, Karen, it
didn't mean to be so, but also she could but
also she could have maybe done it, so so then
I'm not sorry. It's just one of those things where
it's like, oh, we don't know, and it's terrible, and
I just would never want to be in that situation.
I mean, imagine like your boyfriend dies and you had
(34:27):
nothing to do with it, but then all of a
sudden you're being accused of murdering him and then that's
now your life and you know you have legal bills
at the imagine that wazoo. And then the whole world
is seeing that, Yeah, you texted some other cop like hey,
you're hot, and then also that you called your boyfriend
like fifty times saying I know you're hooking up with
(34:48):
another woman right now.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
That was maybe the cringiest part of the whole thing,
is watching that guy read those text messages.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Oh yeah, Corine, just central for.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
The world to see.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
Yeah, I would be more. I would throw my SIM
card in the military get trash too.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
I get it, I get it, I.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Get it, I get it.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
I'd be like, I do not want any of the
guy that did it. That's not the guy that threw
the SIM card in. Then it was yeah, But honestly.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I don't think it's why. I say, there's two Brian's,
like the dog owner as a Brian. There's a Brian
Higgins and a Brian something else. Yeah, maybe so, and
they both have goatee's and they're both police officers, so
it gets confusing. But I think one of the Brian's
threw away the SIM card on and the phone and
the military trash, and then the other Brian got rid
(35:37):
of his dog conveniently, conveniently and his carpet and sold
his house. I saw an article the other day this
is a little bit related, but like only six two
(36:00):
percent of Americans would put their reputation on the line
to like be a reference for a friend. I thought
that was low, Like what is the quality of our
friendships here America?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
A reference for a.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Like a job, or put their their reputation on the
line like that would be like if my friend wanted
to come and work at my company, that okay, I
wouldn't say, like, oh yeah, I wouldn't vouch for them,
would be like a good person.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
But would you lie?
Speaker 2 (36:27):
But I think most of my friends would be good
at a job most.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
So what about the friend that asked and there wouldn't
be good?
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Would you lie? Oh?
Speaker 3 (36:36):
I don't know what I would do because I wouldn't lie.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
I would be a character witness or a reference for
somebody that I could do that for. But if I
thought you killed your boyfriend, I wouldn't go and do that.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
Well, yeah, but obviously that I killed my boyfriend. I'm
just talking about our everyday friends, like.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
You know, So I guess my point is so, Like,
it's different if you were going to go work at
a job and I didn't work there, Like, if it
was you just wrote me as a reference.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Which can you write your friends as your references? You can't?
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
It'd be different. I'd be like, who cares, I don't care.
I want you to get a job, so sure you'd
be good at this. But if you were coming to
work for me at a company and I really cared
about my job and my reputation at that company and
I did not think you would be a good fit
or I didn't know, I would either say I don't
know or I would say I'm not going to do it.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Wow, that would be hard, though. It would be hard
to do. I think it would be hard, Yeah, because
if I show up and I'm like this lazy, Yeah,
my work ethic is horrible, and then it would your
reputation on the line, and then people don't trust me,
and that could hurt me. Okay. Hold On Shannon pulled
up the exact article. It says sixty two percent of
Americans would be willing would be willing to put their
(37:45):
reputation on the line by acting as a reference for
a loved one's job or apartment application. This suggests that
a smaller percentage thirty eight percent, would not be willing
to do so.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Oh, that makes sense because most people would do it.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
No, but sixty two percent seems low to me. That's
my point.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
I feel like, what, I don't think it's that low. Okay,
it's again it depends. I want more information. I want
to know what job it is.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Okay, Well, I guess it's just this is a vague
survey of Americans. There's lots of chi. I got more questions. Okay, Well,
I wonder how many people would be a character witness
for there that's a bigger deal. Yeah. Well, my friend's
husband's coworker was character witness also. But again, I don't
know if I was supposed to share that. So I
(38:32):
should have said, anybody can nail down who you're talking about?
Have reversed it. I should have set made up like
I should.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
I should have said, it does sound like you made
that not but I did.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
I didn't. I should have said to be more like,
just so if my friend's listening, I'm talking about her,
I should have said my friend's wife co worker.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
Also to add this, who's a man like the wife,
the coworker, the coworker of the way.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Okay, you being a character witness, isn't saying you did
or you didn't.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Yeah, I know, it just sounded like I had classified
information and I don't think I do, But.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
I think you I mean that feel you feel a
little close.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
To the inside scoop? Yeah yeah, how how crazy is
it that I know someone who is married to someone
that works with someone that was testifying in this trial
that everybody's talking about.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
Do you know what we call that? I'm nothing burger?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Nothing burger?
Speaker 4 (39:36):
It's like nothing where you got this like hot gossip
on the case. Yeah, yeah, Actually don't know who this
person is, if it's a mail or woman, what they said,
what they did, how it went, if it really happened.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Is that what you say to your clients when they're
in your office and they tell you some story and
you're like, you know what we call that? And therapy
A nothing burger? Who calls it that? I who calls
it that?
Speaker 4 (39:58):
Like?
Speaker 2 (39:58):
You would never say that to a client.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
You're not my client. You're not talking about like your trauma.
You're like, I got this inside scoop? And then it
was like.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
A it's cool. It's cool, it's cool. Maybe I'll try
to find out more info.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
It's a plain cheeseburger. How about that?
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Okay, plain cheeseburger. No ketchup, no ketchup, no toppings, no mayo,
no pickle.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Well, no mayo is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
I don't have to have it on a burger. But
I love mayonnaise. I love chicken salad. I love mayonnaise
on my sandwiches. I love Could you eat it with
a spoon? Yeah, I could eat mayonnaise. I you know
how my dad uses mayonnaise, or he did on grilled cheese,
reast and peace on grilled cheese. He like some people
(40:44):
butter the bread and then put on the skillet, but
my dad would basically butter it with mayonnaise Helman's mayonnaise,
And oh it just makes.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
The perfect I need to stop talking about it, crispiness.
I'm just thinking about it, and I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
You don't like anything white. Cat hates a race. You
don't like anything white.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I like mozzarella cheese.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (41:13):
I like parmesan cheese. I like Caesar salad dressing. If
you don't tell me what's in it? This is gonna
throw you for a loop. I like ranch, if you
don't talk about the ingredients of it, we're just basically.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
Like mayonnaise with a little seasoning in it.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Yeah, it's like sour cream. Stop but you don't like Okay, Well,
I got that DM from Instagram, but we also got
all those emails. But I know you're getting dms too,
So DMS things are blowing up thanks to Karen Reid,
which I was like, gosh, we should have really done
a major, major deep dive and delivered something similar to
(41:48):
like crime Junkies, and then we could be like in
on this, but instead we're not. We're not a good resource,
so people when it comes to this trial, we're not
a lawyer podcast. Although I might get more info from
my friends husband's coworker, I'll keep you to that and
then we'll have an exclusive. Okay, but I'll let you
know on that.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
The downloads are gonna be off the chart because you're
gonna have this like secret piece of information off the charts.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
But speaking of Instagram, I did want to talk about
a post that I saw Upworthy put up, and it's
unhinged parenting hacks from parents all over the country, and
I thought they were kind of funny and they may
or not be helpful for some of our listeners, and
we can share them with everybody now if you want to. Yeah,
you want to do the first one. This one made
me lol.
Speaker 4 (42:30):
Whenever it's bedtime and they are still stuck on Netflix,
I changed the language to Greek or Polish and tell
them they don't understand because they're too tired and it's bedtime.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
And that is definitely an unhinged parenting hack. So yeah,
if your kids, I mean, they have to be young
enough to not really understand exactly what's happening. But that's
pretty that's funny. Yeah. Oh yeah, you just don't understand
because you're tired every time for bed, so it'll be bad.
You'll understand in the morning.
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Brain's not you need some rest.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
One parent said, we did Cinderella Sundays, where we cleaned
all morning and then they wore their princess dresses to
a fancy candle at dinner, followed by a dance party
like quote unquote ball. She got onto like they were
scrubbing the bathroom, cleaning the house, but then they got
(43:22):
to go to a ball at night. That's sweet Cinderella Sundays.
I'm gonna try that on my kids.
Speaker 3 (43:27):
I'm gonna try that on myself. I hate cleaning. Okay.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Uh. Mom told the kids she was allergic to loud noises,
so when she was overstimulated, she would say.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
She was having an allergic reaction. And then you don't
want your mom to have an allergic reaction, so quiet down.
Another mom hid all of the stuffed animals and said
they ran away because the bedroom was dirty, and then
the animals sent a postcard from another kid's clean room,
and then her kids they clean their room and the
(43:56):
animals returned. Okay, I have to say that is that
is next level thinking.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Yes, Also that sounds like so much work, but it's
probably not.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
But also some of this stuff where like they're gonna
end up in your office, like because you're a therapist,
as when they're adults, and they're gonna be like, well,
one time, all my stuffed animals disappeared and then I
got a postcard that they were at this other kid's
room because their room was clean. And then later I
found out my mom did that.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
To wait, that's like, oh, my animals running away from
me and I don't want to be with me because
I was dirty. Yeah wait, that could be sad.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Right, or like, so what if someone came and sat
in your office and they're like, we useduff Cinderella.
Speaker 4 (44:38):
My mom made me dress up in rags, like we
would have to clean the house all day. But your stepdaughter,
Yeah no, I think these are fun and silly and
they're playful.
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Yes, speaking of they're playful tie in our Also, I
heard one feeling this wasn't on this, but I heard
a girl on Instagram talking about this.
Speaker 3 (44:58):
Chelsea explains it all.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
She gives like babysitter hacks and stuff like that and
parenting hacks even though she's not a parent. She babysat
when she was younger, and she said to get when
she babysat, to get kids to put to go to bed,
you know, it's so hard always like you know, tell
people that they can't understand the language of the TV.
She would have them do a pajama runway show. So
(45:20):
she'd be like, Okay, it's time for the pajama Runway show.
Go put your pajamas on. And so then it would
get the kids to get ready for bed. They put
their pajamas on, and then she would have them walk
down the hall and do their runway and then they
would go to bed.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
Oh I love that. Yeah, I feel like that could
backfire a little bit. But at least he gets them in
their pajamas because they all hyped up and they're ready
for their fashion show. And then they add music. Yes,
and they'd be like, I need a change again, yeah
my second look. Yeah, but then they've got to like
brush their teeth. And I mean I was a nightmare
to care for as a child, Like I never wanted
(45:52):
to listen to the sitter. I never wanted to go
to bed. Really, I was not easy.
Speaker 3 (45:57):
You know something that my mom did from little brother
that helped him.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
This is a hack.
Speaker 3 (46:01):
I feel like this is not that creative.
Speaker 2 (46:03):
Maybe it is.
Speaker 4 (46:04):
When my little brother was in elementary school, he would
have these I don't know if there are nightmares or
he I think it was a nightmare, Like I think
he dreamt this that there's alligators crawling all over his walls,
and so he wouldn't sleep in his bed and he
had like cool room.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
He had a race car bed. You know those kids.
Oh yeah, it's legit.
Speaker 3 (46:25):
I never got one of those, or did you want one?
Speaker 4 (46:28):
No, but the girls had like the little playhouse bed
I had like a little anyway, I'm not I've moved
on from it, clearly anyway. So he would sleep in
my parents' room every night, and they tried the charts.
They tried all the sticker charts and stuff like that,
but he just got so scared. So my mom made
him alligator spray, and she brought him into the kitchen
and she got in one of those.
Speaker 2 (46:48):
Like spray bottles you would use for your hair or use.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
We use them for our hair, and she put water
in it, and then they would put they put all
these spices in the bottle, and my mom was like,
this is.
Speaker 2 (46:58):
Kind of spices. Though now I'm worried his room's gonna
smell like she could have, honest pepper, I have no idea.
It's like very garlicy, a little onion powder.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
Honestly, she could have pretended to put them in. I
don't remember that part. But she pretended to make a spray.
And then before at night they would spray his room
with alligator spray, and no alligators showed up.
Speaker 2 (47:20):
So cute. I love that idea.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
H Then I don't think that would send him to therapy.
Speaker 2 (47:26):
No, not at all. Like my mom, it might be
a little weird when he gets married and he's got
his alligator spray his girlfriend or his wife or whatever,
she's like, what's going on. He's like, I got to
keep the alligators away if he like never grows out
of it, but you know, it's like someone's security blanket.
Speaker 3 (47:47):
Wait a second, I should check in with him and.
Speaker 2 (47:50):
See if he still has to spray. What if he
never he still does it, but he's like, my wife
doesn't know, and like every night he's like, this is
little like teeny Yeah, I wish that were true. Kind
of ask him we need to follow up, okay, like
we need to know an update. And I feel that
(48:10):
that we robbed people of Jessica's note to us at
the beginning, because that is what I pulled for our
email of the day. Remember when Jessica's asking about what
