Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
We asked to talk about question. We'll get your answers
here in just a few moments. If you could get
back with an X if they suddenly came into money,
would you?

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Would you? And if you've ever been dumped?

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Lord knows, I experienced this enough times and had a
producer of mine who's found out that his wife was
messing around on him, and then she left him and
he was absolutely wrecked. And I just remember he came
and staved with me for a week and he was
so devastated, and it was so painful for me to

(00:40):
watch too, because I couldn't do anything about it, and
he just wanted he just wanted to rewind and just
just have her back, just make everything okay.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
I just wanted to be okay. I just wanted to
be okay, right.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
As long as as long as she stays with me,
then I can look past the infidelity, you know, this
sort of thing. And then like two weeks later, he
said to me, he goes, you know what, I don't
even know if I want her back right now. And
I thought, okay, that's some growth there you go. If
she came into a lot of money. Would you wanna
would you want to get back if you came into

(01:15):
a lot of money, which would you take her back?
By the way, fine twist later on in the story,
she definitely was interested in rekindling that relationship because the
guys that she had left him for were subpar.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Fair to say, every week at six o'clock we do it.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
There's no business like shelf business.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
We'll start with the Master of the butt Fumble.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yesterday we thought, oh my gosh, Mark Sanchez has been stabbed.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Today we get an update on that story.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
This morning, former NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports analyst
Mark Sanchez facing a battery charge after a stabbing incident
in downtown Indianapolis.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
Now just from that, you might think he stabbed somebody.

Speaker 5 (01:59):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
Investigators with the Indianapolis Police Department say Sanchez was initially
hospitalized as the stabbing victim, but then later officers arrested
the former quarterback for his alleged role in the incident.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Oh so wait, if he got stabbed, is he not
the victim?

Speaker 4 (02:17):
According to police, the incident occurred between out of towners
in this alley.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
I can't see it. It's TV from a by the
way and wasn't considered a random act of violence.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
Investigators say an argument between the two men quickly escalated
just after midnight Saturday, leading to Sanchez sustaining injuries consistent
with stab wounds. Police say Sanchez, who is still hospitalized,
faces misdemeanor charges including battery, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle,
and public intoxication, adding all involved parties have been identified

(02:49):
and no further suspects are being sought.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Man, he went straight into cop talk, there didn't he?
No other suspects. All parties involved have been identified.

Speaker 4 (02:59):
Fox Sports providing an update, saying, in part, our thoughts
and prayers are with Mark thought spassed that everyone please
respect his and his family's privacy during this time.

Speaker 6 (03:10):
Well that was ABC's Kajati reporting. We've also learned the
sixty nine year old man was cut on his cheek
and treated and released from the hospital. Sanchez is now
in stable condition.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Okay, so Sanchez gets picked up right. The other guy
is just treated and released. Oh, I got ugly fast.
He was supposed to call the game today in Indianapolis.
I guess, So what's he doing drunk at midnight? If
he has to call the game in India. I think
that was an early game. Hold on, let me check.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Are you a sports fan? Yeah? About British sports. I
know nothing about American football. Oh okay, all right, I'm
going to give you a half pass for that, So
that's fine. I'll allow that. If you were to tell
me no sports, and I was gonna give you, definitely
a giant demerit, but uh, I'll let it pass. I'll
let that go. That's fine. Yeah, anyway, I think it

(04:02):
was the early game. So even if it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
The early game, what are you doing out at midnight
getting all smashed and then picking fights with people? And
if he was, didn't say he was entering somebody's vehicle,
So did he try to pull somebody out of the
vehicle and then beat him up? The heck is wrong
with you? I mean at some point? Oh yeah, that

(04:25):
was the early game. Yeah, started at ten am our time,
so that would have been Indianapolis is central times, so
that would have been at noon. And he's out at
midnight getting into bar fights and getting stabbed. I don't
know about you, guys, but if I'm working the next day,
I gotta have eight hours sleep. I gotta get up,

(04:47):
and I'm checking to make sure all my prep is
up to date, and then I'm getting to the studio early.
And for Pete's sake, he's got to get in there
and get his makeup and everything else done. And I mean,
good Lord, a little fast and loose with your second career.
There bub and I think he's done. I think that
is going to be it for Mark Sanchez. He is
d u n uh NEPO death NEPO death report. Did

(05:15):
you see Ike Turner Junior died.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yesterday?

Speaker 2 (05:21):
He was in Los Angeles. Died uh one day after
his birthday, sixty seven years old. I don't think we
have a kidney failure. So there you go.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Ike.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Ike was obviously Ike Turner son, but also Tina Turner son.
So Iken Tina Turner son, Ike Junior, and Ike Junior
has now passed away.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
He was sixty seven. There you go. If you are talkback,
will continue with more.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Showed his news here in just a few moments, but
our our talk back, and I wanted to get to
a few of these because you guys.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Have been great at responding and I love you for it.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
If you found out that your ex suddenly came into
money inheritance. Amazing job, you know found their bitcoin wallet
from twenty twelve.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
If you find out that they suddenly came into money,
would you get back with them now? Would you try
to get back with them if they called you?

Speaker 3 (06:16):
Would you give it another shot? Just kind of curious.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
And remember every relationship is different too, So maybe money
was the reason you broke up in the first place,
and if that problem is solved, maybe everything else was
done dynamite.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
I don't know. I'm not your.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Counselor Pete's sake. Would you get back with an X
if they suddenly came into money. If you're listening on
the iHeart radio app, click that talk back button and
let us know some.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
Of your feedback.

Speaker 7 (06:37):
Now, Hey, yeah, I get back with an X.

Speaker 8 (06:39):
Doesn't mean I have to stay with them very long.

Speaker 7 (06:42):
Just get what I want and get out.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Cala.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
That sounds like you. Then you say that you'd be like, yeah,
I get back with an X. That's what I thought.
Woul drag me into this? Yeah, that's interesting. God, I'm
in that same boat though. I've been dumped so many times,
and when you get dumped, it's just like I just
wanted to stop.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
I just want to I wanted to go back to
when it was good.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Hey, Chris, No, I couldn't go back with my eggs.

Speaker 9 (07:12):
Simple reasoning is I met the love of my life.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
After that, life's been really well went up. I bought
one hundred and fifty points, bought a house, good investments.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
A kids in law enforcement.

Speaker 10 (07:23):
Everything went great after I got rid of my ex,
or she got rid of me, however you want to
put it.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Oh, well, she got rid of you. Maybe that was
blessing in disguise. Wow, good for you. That's the hardest
thing about a breakup for me. Fortunately, I'm married, so
I haven't been broken up in twenty three years or something.
I'm just trying to think married twenty one plus dating
plus other stuff, right, So I'm just thinking, Yeah, I

(07:48):
don't think I would want to get back with an X.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
I don't think so. But when you're dumped, there's nothing
you want more than just turn back the clock a
little bit, all right.

Speaker 8 (07:57):
I would never eat out of the trash for money.
I would gladly live on my teacher salary before I
would ever consider going back with my ex for money.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
I love that she called it eating out of the
trash with money. I actually would eat out of the
trash for money. Just FYI, if anybody has an extra,
you know, a lot of money hanging around.

Speaker 7 (08:20):
I do. Actually, yeah, I will actually pay you to
do that.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Hey, will you? Will you answer me this time? Seriously?

Speaker 2 (08:26):
This the first woman there that said that she would
get back with an X. Doesn't mean that she has
to stay with him?

Speaker 3 (08:32):
Yeah, is that you network because you kind of hinted
at that earlier.

Speaker 7 (08:37):
Well, I just said it depends on which ex And did.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
You ever break up with somebody? Or was money ever
the reason for a breakup?

Speaker 11 (08:46):
It would have to be layered. But his lack of
motivation was definitely a turn off. A protector and a
provider was definitely like, yeah, no, I can't.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Okay, you sound like doctor Wendy.

Speaker 7 (09:00):
Need it, you need it, you need it?

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Okay, all right.

Speaker 7 (09:04):
I thought this was a safe space. I felt little gig.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
To make sure that you're your authentic self.

Speaker 7 (09:10):
Yeah, yeah, No, I definitely love protectors and providers. I don't.

Speaker 11 (09:13):
I don't date broke men, you know, not in a
gold diggy way, but in a security type of way.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah okay, yeah, yeah, right, No, I get that.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, if you were with somebody who was financially secure
and then the bottom fell out, say that things went badly,
would that be the end of the relationship.

Speaker 11 (09:35):
Well, from what I understand, and you're a man, please
answer me this. I feel like when a man doesn't
have money or have it together, he doesn't feel like
his best self. So it's hard for him to give
himself when he's just feeling like less than Yes, so
you would still need to like not even provide financially,
but provide emotionally and be there from you in a
relationship with this in.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Just a moment, because I love what you're doing here,
because I've been through this personally. Okay, I love this.
We'll talk in just a few moments. And what wouldn't
you do for money? For some people, it means traveling
to Saudi Arabia. You're gonna find out why.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Next, you're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Get more of your thoughts on whether or not you
would get back with an X if they suddenly came
into money. We had had one moment this is I
don't eat food out of the trash for money.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
I'm not getting back with an X for money. I
love that. I love that. And then Cayle is like,
you know what depends on which X wound? Yeah? Was
it the hot one?

Speaker 7 (10:43):
The kind one?

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Why'd you break up in the first place?

Speaker 11 (10:47):
Kindness sometimes just isn't enough. Chris, you understand, Oh that
was it?

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Did you dump somebody because they weren't the bad boy?

Speaker 5 (10:54):
No?

Speaker 7 (10:57):
You know, I lived along like Chris. It's hard to
remember things.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
I've had a few. All right, all right, that's interesting.
All right, we'll get to more of your thoughts of
that here in just a second.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
First, there's no business like show business. What would you
do for big bucks? Would you perform at a comedy
festival and one of the most oppressive countries on the planet.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
This has been a controversy if you've missed this, as.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
A number of really big name comics we're invited to
go to the re odd Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Oh, boil boy.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
We cancel comics in the United States for saying things
and then Saudi Arabia invites them. That seems upset down
from NBC News talking about this, because some comics were
very upset with their colleagues, I'm.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
Not doing it. That is good. Then they doubled the
bag and I was like, oh, Shane Gillis, by the way,
he said no, and then they doubled the offer.

Speaker 12 (12:03):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
So I already said no.

Speaker 13 (12:06):
I took a principled stand, yeah, against Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
How do you even promote that.

Speaker 14 (12:11):
I've been getting a little bit of flack just because,
like my dad died nine to eleven.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
So Pete Davidson, who I think did perform, They're like,
how could you possibly go there?

Speaker 9 (12:20):
In the world of comedy and controversy?

Speaker 7 (12:23):
An amazing show, an amazing crowd.

Speaker 9 (12:25):
Tonight some big comics drawing a line in the sand
and blasting some big names Scheduled to perform at the
ongoing Rion Comedy Festival put on by Saudi Arabia. The
bill reads like the Who's Who of comedy, the likes
of Dave Chappelle, Kevin Hart as He's in Zari, Pete Davidson,
and Lewis c. K. And on a podcast circuit, some
comedians are talking about how much they say they're.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
Being pretty much, they're payingty three hundred and seventy five
thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Wow. Would you do it for three hundred and seventy
five thousand dollars?

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Kaila, three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars for one gig.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
They're gonna fly over there. That's a lot for one
shout Now a lot of other people are getting one
point six million. Whoa holy how?

Speaker 9 (13:10):
But with the money come censorship rules. Ots Goo Okotska,
saying she declined the invitation and posted a screenshot of stipulations.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the royal family, and any
religion are off limits. NBC News reached out to Saudi
event organizers but have not heard back to independently confirm
the rules. Tim Dillon joking about Saudi Arabia on his
own podcast, I was fired from the Riod Comedy Festival.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
They officked three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars in
e can for what.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
My agent called me, and he said, there they heard
what you said about them having slaves.

Speaker 9 (13:48):
Human Rights Watch says the watchdog organization joke documented a
soaring surge and executions this year and human rights violations the.

Speaker 8 (13:56):
Riod Comedy Festival as part of Mohammad bin Selman's deliberates
strategy to deflect attention from the reality of the human
rights crisis in Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 9 (14:05):
The festival coinciding with this seventh anniversary this month of
the assassination of Washington Post columnist Jamal Koshoji poof.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
So is it wrong to do the comedy festival because
it's an oppressive country or is it right to do
the comedy festival to introduce Western values to an oppressive
country so that they can experience what it's like to
have some freedoms. Baily rules by the way roughly, and

(14:36):
Bill Barr talked about this too, is you can make
front of the royal family and no jokes about religion.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
Interestingly enough, there was one hold on Jessica.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
Curson, who was a lesbian, and she performed there. Now
she says she regrets doing it. She sent a statement
to the Hollywood Reporter said she was surprised to be
asked to perform at the Read Comedy Festival.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
She went so far as to request.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
A guarantee that she could be openly out as a
lesbian on stage and perform gay material as is common
in her act, saying, I hope that this could help
LGBTQ plus people in Saudi Arabia feel seen and valued.
I'm grateful that I was able to do precisely that.
To my knowledge, I'm the first openly gay comic to
talk about it on stage in Saudi Arabia. I received
messages from attendees sharing how much it meant to them

(15:31):
to participate in a gay affirming event. At the same time,
I deeply regret participating under the auspices of the Saudi government.
So comics again trying to thread the needle and.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Make a killing.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
So do you turn down three hundred and seventy five
thousand dollars million dollars one point six million dollars for
the gig out of principle or do you kind of
rationalize it and say, look, is gonna do this and
and uh, and we can use this to democratize in
the Middle East. Right, That's a good question. I don't

(16:09):
know the answer to it. Frankly, I think, uh, you
do what you think is right. Because I'm not big
on canceling comics, so I am glad to see the
other comics who are being critical aren't saying now, never
go to another Bill Barr show again. You know, nobody's
saying that, so or Bill Burr, I said Bill, Bill

(16:30):
Barr's former attorney general.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Uh, Bill Burr.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
Nobody's saying, don't don't go see them, don't go see Bill.
None of the commics you're saying that. They're just saying
I vehemently disagree with that decision. I think that's how
we should disagree in this country. We should disagree with
up being disagreeable. Right, all right, if you're on the iHeartRadio,
I hit that talk back button or question tonight, would
you get back with an X if they suddenly came
into money? But a few more of your talkbacks I

(16:54):
want to share with you're here in just a few moments.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
Get him in here as well.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
And and then I've got some probing questions about this
very topic.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Next, you're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
I'm Chris marrold more stimulating talk.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
We hope according to some of our talkbacks, it is
not our talk back tonight is would you get back
with an X if they suddenly came into money? Kayla
says how much money in which X? Okay, right, sounds
like love? That sounds like love? Would you do it?

Speaker 5 (17:36):
The answer to your question is l to the note,
Hell to the note. I Am not getting back to
that shack, no matter how much money she wins. So
I'm gonna call her. I'm just calling her to my advice,
and not to blow that night is because I know
how bad she is.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
She's gonna blow that money.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
So no, I'm only calling her to offer my advice.
As I kind I ask your advice. I don't blow
the money because I don't want you to come back
and borrow from me. That's it.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
I can you imagine being his ex and I'm just
imagining the scenario shaking out here, so I know, maybe
they had a bad breakup, maybe he dumped her and
she's been pining away, and all of a sudden she
wins the lottery and she calls him.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
And she says, she says, all of her problems are solved.
I've got money now, And he says, listen, take some
advice from me. Ah, do not blow through that money,
because I don't want you coming back to ask me
for more of it.

Speaker 3 (18:49):
You talk about being rejected.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
Oh, but do you think it's more important for it, Kayla?
Because you've got You know, we had guys They're like,
I'm not getting back with an X, but we've had
women that are like I might.

Speaker 11 (19:04):
Yeah, which one do I think is batter? Out of
the guys that wi the girls?

Speaker 9 (19:07):
No?

Speaker 3 (19:07):
No, No, I mean like, is there a is there
a societal gender role expectation? Like even you talked about it.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
You want somebody that's going to protect, protect you and
keep you secure?

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Right, yes, Okay, so that's Those are not the criteria.
If I'm thinking back to the conversations I've had with
doctor Wendy Walsh, who comes up at seven o'clock tonight,
those are not some of the leading criteria that men
look for in a woman. Yeah, is it more likely
that a woman would get back with an X then

(19:40):
it would be that a guy would get back with
an X.

Speaker 13 (19:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (19:44):
That's a doctor one based on the money? Okay, yeah,
based off the money?

Speaker 3 (19:48):
All right, back to the talkbacks, Chris, really, Yeah.

Speaker 10 (19:53):
You gotta listen to Kla she's the adult in the room. Okay,
your whole this whole question shows Yeah, insecurity at its worst. Yeah,
why is it part of your show?

Speaker 3 (20:09):
Insecure? Man? Yeah? Be better, do better? Wow?

Speaker 11 (20:13):
Well, no, it's in the news. Chris it's not your insecurities.

actually Doctor Windy and I are going to cover this
topic too later in the show. Be Better, don't be better? Chris,
be you man better? No, No, don't listen to that
guy be better Better? Well, he did say, I'm very
mature and I'm the only adult, and listen to me.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
So listen to better.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
You're right, be better Better?

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Why is it that he like? I get that you
don't like the question, but why does it turned into like,
be better? Be better? What is that about? When did
that come about? Is that a gen z thing that
that is now trickling up? It was like, be better?

Speaker 7 (20:54):
I kind of like that term.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
It's like talk that trolling, isn't it?

Speaker 7 (20:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:57):
Why is this a part of your show? Be Better?
It's not the thing I would have talked about be better?
Are you kidding me? We're coming out of a football game.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
I got an hour and a half show tonight and
we've been crushing it out of the talkbacks. Obviously, people
are interested in the topics, sure, And I feel like
relationships and money are the kinds of things that everyone
can relate to.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Heart strings and purse strings Radio one on one, be better.
Oh okay, all right, you want to bitch about ice
raiding some more than is that? Caylea, bring up the

Speaker 7 (21:41):
He needs to be better, be nicer. On the talkbacks.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
I love that he's like, shows your insecurity just to
let me help you guys out. I'm a performer who
constantly seeks affirmation through applause. So I am all insecure. Yeah,

(22:07):
just ball of insecurity, this guy right here.

Speaker 7 (22:10):
So we love you, Chris.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
No, I appreciate. I'm not fishing for a compliment. I'm
just telling you when it comes to insecurity, You're not
breaking any news to me.

Speaker 7 (22:18):
We all got our things.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Be better, be better, Kilan. Right from the talkbacks, did you,
by the way, did you listen to this one? Is
it clean? Yes? Okay, good evening. I definitely would get
back with the next if she got into a lot of.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
Money, sure, and I would slowly drain your account and
put it in my private account and then turn around
and say, Okay, I guess we're not working out anymore.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Goodbye. How about that? Catch me outside? How about that?
How about that?

Speaker 7 (22:45):
Okay, I like that.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
We have all these evil plans that are coming about.
Be better. No stomach, not good, not goodie, Brigitta.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Yo.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
So suppose something happened between you and your beautiful husband.

Speaker 13 (23:09):
Yeah, I'd get back with him for the money.

Speaker 7 (23:12):
We got a kid.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 7 (23:15):
And if you drained all the money, he'd be gone.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
It is not easy being a single mom in Los Angeles, right,
So nobody wants to do that. No, so, yeah, you
cant back. So this is my wife.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
And I went through some some trouble here in the
last few years because, uh, you know, I lost my
gig and I was doing fill in work. The Sunday
Show was one of my filling jobs, and I was
doing some stuff in San Francisco and Dallas, and I
was very honored to be doing those things, which is
a nice little ego boost. You know, you're you're getting
phone calls from Major Marcus. They don't want to hire you,

(23:47):
but they want you on their on their station, so
you know, kind of a mixed bag. But I I
was doing. I was contributing to the household income. I
wasn't making a bunch, but I was doing okay. I
was making about fifty grand a year doing fill in work. Okay,
not great. My wife was definitely the bread winner. My

(24:07):
wife still makes more money than I do. That's because
she's very smart. She started her own company. So that said,
there were times when this comes to Kala's point where
you want a provider and what did you say?

Speaker 7 (24:21):
What were the two words protector and provider?

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Protector and provider?

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Okay, And I think she felt like I was not
protecting so and I felt like that was really unfair
because I wasn't spending my time lying around to the couch.
I was working, in some cases more doing fill in
work than I was during the week. But it was all,
you know, sporadic. So I get a phone call going, hey,

(24:48):
can you cover today? Or I'd get a phone call saying, hey,
we got somebody that's taking vacation for two days next week,
can you cover that kind of thing. So the rest
of the time, and you know, I'm stay in contact
with my agent and trying to trying to land gigs
and this kind of thing, and final something came along,
and it's great, But I spent so much time that
I wasn't working that I tried to fulfill the other roles.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
So she was working.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
She worked from home, so it was I was making
her lunch, I had dinner ready at five or five thirty,
whenever she wanted it. The house was cleaned, the laundry
was done, you know, the lawn was mode, all this stuff,
and I wasn't really getting any credit for that, And
I think it was really interesting to see, looking back

(25:32):
on it now, sort of the the gender role expectations
being reversed. So here I was busting my ass around
the house while trying to pick up these gigs, and
I wasn't getting any credit. You know, she wasn't recognizing
my value because she did zero cleaning at that point,

(25:55):
she did zero laundry. She did because I wanted to
take care of it. I wanted to contribute. She working,
She was bringing the money, so I felt really unappreciated. Now,
how many women out there, and I'm just talking generalities
here about how many women out there have felt wildly
underappreciated because they take care of all the household stuff, appreciated,

(26:16):
raising a kid, right, doing all that.

Speaker 14 (26:18):
Does like more than fifty percent when like all the time,
and I still feel like he's lacking.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Wow, that like do more.

Speaker 14 (26:27):
Honest, No, it's because I also feel stressed. So sometimes
it is hard to recognize that he is pulling more
than his weight.

Speaker 13 (26:35):
Yeah, and mine.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
But your emotion doesn't match the logic, right, No, and
that's not that's not fair to either one of you.
But it's really hard to like, there's something in our
minds from I don't know, our childhood or something that
we have to overcome to start recognizing the other person.
So I felt unappreciated, and then I felt taken advantage of,
and I thought, well, this is really interesting. Then my
wife because we did we did talk to therapist, which

(26:59):
was incredible helpful. My wife kind of had to have
her eyes open, although I don't know if she I
don't know how much they were open. My wife is
kind of hard to read. Sometimes she'll she's like, yeah, whatever,
she's she's type A. We're both type A. Sometimes things
sometimes things hit that emotional block wall, right, that gets
in the way. But I think I think there was

(27:19):
a slight realization that you know, I was doing stuff
and she wasn't recognizing, but like Brigitta just said, she
felt like all of the pressure was on her shoulders
because I wasn't making very much money. So no way,
I'm really interested, really fascinating. Oh wait a minute, No
I'm not.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
No, I'm not. I need to rethink about it. Be better,
do better. Sorry, I will try.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
All right, let's talk to doctor Wendy about this very thing,
because it is nearly fifty percent that would say money
is more important than love. If you had to choose
between one and the other, which would you pick? Hmm,
that's next. I know what, I know what Hollywood would pick.

(28:04):
What's the reality of the situation. That's next.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
You're listening to KFI A M six forty on demand.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Kayla, I think what do you think about the Ali's
performance here?

Speaker 11 (28:18):
I think, Alie, I think Ali was absolutely smashing. He
was Kayla, Kayla, I'm sorry, don't report me to h appropriation.

Speaker 7 (28:25):
Oh wait, that wasn't me. I'm sorry. Kayla's here now.

Speaker 3 (28:29):
Yes, I even had Kla with an American accident. She
just talks British to me the whole time.

Speaker 11 (28:35):
That's called tattle telling in the States.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Thank you so much. Thanks, all right. Yeah, I'm going
to give you what's a passing grade?

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Kayla?

Speaker 7 (28:48):
That's an A?

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Chris, No, what's a passing minus?

Speaker 7 (28:52):
Well?

Speaker 3 (28:53):
I don't want him getting cocky?

Speaker 7 (28:55):
Can we give him a B B minus B plus?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Be all right? I'll try to do better next time.
Thank you? Yeah, next time better? Thank you? Doctor Wendy Walls. Hey,
am I lucky or what? Look? We just Ali is
the new guy here with us? You know we lost Raoul.
I still talk to Raoul. I missed the guy like mad, but.

Speaker 13 (29:19):
It's a hard act to follow.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
It's pretty different vibe to the show. Be able to
replace him, but I will bring my You're not a replacement, No,
you're not a replacement.

Speaker 13 (29:31):
Not a replacement is you're a new addition.

Speaker 3 (29:33):
That's exactly right, it's exactly.

Speaker 13 (29:37):
What do you want to know?

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Well, hang on here, I say thank You's Kyle, your
spectacular brista.

Speaker 13 (29:41):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
Thank you for being very u bluntly honest in that
last segment. I think that was. I think that was.

Speaker 14 (29:47):
I love my husband though nothing could make me leave him.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Yeah, but be honest. Marriage is hard, right, It's not
all it's not all unshine rainbows, it's tough.

Speaker 14 (30:03):
Just sign does not agree it is Oh, no, it is. No,
it's really tough, especially right after you have a child.
We went through some hard Oh. Those therapists are great.
Chris story.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Yeah, so I listen. Thank you for your honesty. I
appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
And I'm sure that coming out the other end, you
love your spouse even more as do Why yep, I
think that. I think that the battle scars that we
make with each other are kind of the things that
we start to love about one another.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Doctor Wendy is with us. She'll probably tell me I'm
all wrong.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
There was a survey done doctor Wendy Walsh, who I
look forward to listening to at seven month survey done
that revealed sixty one percent of people would marry for
love even if it meant a lifelong financial struggle. However,
forty six percent would choose money over love if they
had to decide.

Speaker 12 (30:47):
I know about this study, and if you break down
the numbers, you're going to see that younger people are
more likely to talk about money over love because, think
about it, this is the building stage of their lives.
They're freaking out, they're not making much money. Many of
them are failing to launch or struggling to launch, their
making eighteen dollars an hour, and you know what they're like,
survival is coming before love.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
And aren't the young people the most idealistic, wouldn't They
would be the ones that would say, oh, I need
to have that love.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
In my life.

Speaker 12 (31:14):
No, it's once we have our stuff, we're like, oh,
so our stuff doesn't make us happy. Interesting, So it's
actually about having an emotionally intimate relationship with somebody that
is so good for us it makes us feel better.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
Has that changed over the last few decades or is
it just that the circumstances have changed, because we know
that people are waiting to get married, they're waiting to
have babies, they're waiting, you know, to expand the family,
and a lot of younger people are emphasizing careers first.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
Is that just sort of like, well.

Speaker 12 (31:43):
No, this has to do with Okay, Let's compare say
the year nineteen fifty to the year you know, twenty
twenty five. So in nineteen fifty, the only way a
woman could survive economically, or one of the rare way,
the most common way is to align herself with a
guy to appeal to a guy and have him be
the primary provider. So as women rose not only in

(32:05):
education and careers, they need marriage less But at the
same time, we've entered the information age where you don't
actually need to have big muscles or strength or bravery.

Speaker 13 (32:15):
To make money.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
Right.

Speaker 12 (32:17):
I saw this really cool pilot at the airport the
other day in New York, and she looked like a strong, powerful,
gorgeous black woman, and.

Speaker 13 (32:25):
I'm like, yeah, you go girl. I didn't say that,
but I thought it in my head.

Speaker 12 (32:28):
Yeah, And anyway, So the point is what's changed is
women do not need marriage. However, women have this thing
called a fertility window. So the rubber hits the pavement
in their early thirties and then it's like, oh, so
I have to find a guy now who I connect with,
who might be a good.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Father, And they still seem to want the guy to
be very financially capable a.

Speaker 3 (32:53):
Lot of money.

Speaker 12 (32:54):
That's one of the things we're going to talk about
in my show later today is how there are some
very big celebrity making news where she is so much
more wealthy than he is, and how that's changing how
men perceive themselves in relationships. But I think it's really
incumbent on women to stop holding out and waiting for

(33:14):
this prince charming who's going to have more education and
more money than her, and instead think about a guy
as a best friend and companion, and you know, just
a guy who can be helpful, maybe a good dad.

Speaker 13 (33:26):
Try to date a good dad.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Which brings us back to last week and what we
talked about with Shreking. Where they're looking for, you know,
big bald dumb ogres with bad skin like me. When
is my wife going to realize she got herself a real.

Speaker 12 (33:42):
Cash It's not that they're looking for people who might
be perceived as less attractive. It's that they're understanding that
there is more to a person than just what's on
the outside.

Speaker 3 (33:56):
This is why women are the superior sex.

Speaker 13 (33:59):
Oh well that's without saying.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Yeah, all right, doctor Wendy Walls.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Doctor Wendy after Dark starts at the seven o'clock I'm
looking forward to it. Oh, doctor Wendy, we got to
talk back for you. This guy had advice, Yeah, be better,
do better. Yeah, so we set the bar low.

Speaker 13 (34:14):
I do the best I can, the best I can.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
Thank you.
