Check check check Hello, Hello, check check check flies a microphone on.
Hello Steve, there he is.
Some know me as Stephen, some know you as Stephen, Yes, but I know you as Scoob.
Scoobs, how is the life? Give me a little check in? How are you?
Which bits? Which bits of the bits that we doing right now? This is the question, answer one, or.
We can just hang out something.
We're just talking and stuff.
We haven't even made it, did all right? Scoobimmy, how's life going?
What's what's happening right now?
Life is very interesting right now? Okay, life is different, Life is good. Life will be very busy very soon.
Okay, So does that mean some good things things are happening?
Yeah, you know exactly what you're doing here, Morgan. You know what you're doing.
Huh Yeah, I know how to ask some questions.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have me to butter me up. Yet you already going into the hard questions usually like it's not hard questions.
Questions how's life? That is a softball question.
Okay, all right, Yeah, life is good. Thank you for asking how's life for you?
It's good.
We're talking about you right now, though you can't dodge that. I don't think I didn't even know what was happening. So you say some good things happening really soon. Does that mean there's like things that have happened and we have official answers and.
Stuff to things.
I don't know if we have official answers or we're allowed to say official answers, but I do know that somewhere between October and January, things will be different. Oh that means you're in a good way, though, in a great way.
You say that, But that means you're leaving.
I don't know if I'm leaving.
Okay, okay, so you don't know if you're leaving, but between October and January, something's going to change.
I would say, I'm not you're not leaving.
Yeah, but that's a good thing. Yeah, Well, I think it's a good thing.
That you're not leaving, but it's you were chasing your dream. So I don't want to be like, well, that's a great thing.
Because that's awesome. Now, I've failed.
I'm confused now exactly.
We'll have to that's a that's a deep tease, as we say in the industry. The payoff will happen on the Bobby Bone Show, hosted by Bobby Bone's cost Amy Brown Lunchbox.
We don't need to go on, right, That's that's what that is. How's life is a dad?
Life is a dad is great. They're getting older and it's scaring the crap out of me. Yeah, oh yeah, because like, like my son now is hitting an age now where he's almost seven and he's starting to not care as much like he cares, but like whether there'll be a moment. Yesterday I sat next to on the couch and he got up, went to the other side of the couch and I went to them, and I followed him over that that side of the couch and went to the other side of the couch. And I was like, what dude, He's like, just leave me alone, dad. I was like, you still want to cuddle? He didn't want to cuddle anymore. I was like, dang, but I have two other kids. So I was like, all right, well, final, go cut up with your sister. So then I had two. I have both of the sisters around me. It was really nice. Oh so, yeah, that was weird. But he's into Star Wars now. I've been trying to get him into Star Wars for a minute. Okay, he's went to Disneyland in July and he could care less about Star Wars. But now we have two lightsabers that we got there, and so we'd let we fight every day. We have lightsaber fights.
It no longer cuddling, but we will fight with sabers.
Yes, we'll fight with sabers. And he knows lines and when he messes up, he's like, almost do this again, all right? Take two?
Edakin, Edakin, Oh, so you guys are acting out movies.
Ordering the scenes, and then we even have like choreography with our lightsabers of our fight scenes and stuff. It's actually really cool.
We have this on video. Have you been recording it?
I have, I have it. It's in my brain. I've been watching it because it's so awesome, like immersing in the moment and I'm like, oh my god, my son is a really good actor.
Doesn't you need this memory? Like locked in for life? You know he used to have like home videos.
Oh yeah, my dad used to do, like he would rent the video camera. This is for older people. Back in the day, you had to rent a video camera from a guy. He would bring it to your house and it was this massive camera, almost like a Hollywood type camera. He'd bring it to your house because if it's a VHS tape in it, and then he gives you a tutorial on the camera and you rent it for a day or a weekend or whatever.
You eat it.
It was too expensive to buy a video camera. You had to rent it from somewhere. It was crazy.
See that was like your childhood.
Then you moved to my childhood where we had the They were still big, but they were the compact like everybody had one, like.
The JBC camcorder.
Yeah, and they weren't VHS, but they were the littler tapes. Yes, still tapes, but it was a little and everybody had them.
And so I have so many home videos from growing up.
Yeah. Then the playback was you had to have that one tape that was the size of a tape, but in the middle you put that little tape inside of it to put it in the VHS player.
Yep, the whole thing.
Yeah, okay, yeah, so yeah, you're the next version up from my version. Okay, yeah, And we did have those towards the end of like my childhood. But it was like when that came out, I was like, whoa, you could buy one and then like you get oh my gosh.
See, but now with your phone, you have a home video all the time, so of me making sure to cap I know it makes sense to use a of that for your memory and just to always have those experiences, but like, all you have to do is capture one, so you.
Just have one.
I need to get my wife to be like, hey, next time we do it, can you record us doing it? And she may have one recorded because I'm not paying attention because I literally am just so much in the moment because now I'm super emotional seeing him getting older and him changing and becoming different. I'm like, I got to really enjoy while he's the way he is right now.
He's coming into his own. He really is becoming he's own, little boy, little man.
He is?
How old is he?
He's in first grade? So he turned seven in a few months.
Yeah, I know, that's wild.
I know, does time fly by as fast as everybody says it does?
When you're a parent.
Yeah, I think ever since high school. When I got out of high school, time got fast, but then it's just gotten faster and faster and fat. Like even when I go on a vacation now, I'm already in my head being like, oh my god, I'm gonna remember the moment, Like I'm already at the beginning we're having left yet I'm like, I'm gonna I'm gonna stap my fingers and we're gonna be driving home, or we're gonna be getting back on the plane. It's gonna be over. And sure enough, you're like, it's over, We're going back home. Now, what the hell do you feel?
Like?
That's because we have more stuff to do and take up our time in our days because right, like, if you look at the process of people over time, I don't feel like we have done anything differently for that time to go faster.
We just put more in our schedule.
Yeah, so it it goes faster and busier.
Yeah, because you're right because back then, like in the nineties, growing up, the days were so long because there wasn't much to do, Like if your friends couldn't play then you just sat at home watching TV or or hung out with your siblings or whatever. Yeah, there wasn't like a I got to answer emails, I gotta go to work, I gotta go drive here, I got to pick this person up, I have to go to the grocery store, da, DA, there's less things. That actually makes a lot of sense.
And like, as you get older, especially like right now, time feels like it passed fast. But everybody says when you have kids, time really passes fast and you have multiple schedules on your what schedule.
And where the days were longer when you weren't doing anything. Days felt longer because you weren't doing anything, and days took forever to come to an end. Yeah, that's a great point.
Yeah, I feel like that's why.
Maybe so maybe if like for a week, we don't have anything on our schedules and it's just a blank canvas.
A wonder what that would feel like.
Yeah, if that would feel like time is just passing really slowly, or it's like no, this is still quickly and that's just the course of how we evolve as we get older.
Yeah, Like when you're a kid, you think someone's older and taller and you realize, oh, they were nineteen years old and they were only five 't eleven. But because of the perspective, yes, yeah, I think you may have cracked the cut on time. Maybe you know, let's go, let's get out of here.
Can't do an easy trivia, but I can have some great theories exactly, totally.
A lot of concepts you have there, not actual structured ideas, but concepts.
You know.
Okay, I'm smart, let me live. You know what's funny?
I was thinking about this as we talked about like getting older and stuff. Huh, you don't know something that I've matured in. What's that is my drink choices?
Okay, yeah, that's I think that's another thing of evolving in life. You go from like pop offs to like actual nice cocktails.
Yeah.
So I used to have, like every time I go to a bar and go anywhere, it's really like a Tito's sprite.
That was kind of my my drink was vodka sprite. Okay, And now pretty much everywhere I go is it Cosmopolitan?
Oh you're fair, you got the pinky out and you're.
Drinking I carry Bradshash Wow.
And then nice glass and Martin Martini you put alives in it? Or no?
No, it's always a little pink one.
So sometimes they put a little flour or okay, little umbrella, just depends where you go. What they're like varnishes, but there's no olives in the cosmos.
I would recommend. I don't know they have They probably don't have them here, but I know for sure on the West coast and in Hawaii, a laichi martini. Okay, you know the little chi chi or leechi, depending on how you say it.
Yeah, what is it?
So?
What does it taste like?
It's just really it's like almost like a plum, but it's super sweet, okay, and it is delicious. And then they put the they put the light chi in there, and then you can eat that when you're all done, the laichi chi. And then I know the one that is similar to it. I think it's called like a rasp buttant or a ram buttant that.
Is like a pomegranate, like a little mini pomegranate.
Yeah, they're really small. They're like like maybe the size of like a quarter and they're like yellowish white.
Yeah.
And then the ones you may have seen because they're at publics, I think it's called a rambutant. A rambutant.
Now I feel like you're just making a ram no these right here?
Yeah, rambuten or rambutant does look a lot like light cheese. Yeah, so yeah, there is them. Yeah, so in the inside like that, but on the outside shell they look like almost like a like a like a like a little remember that little mind Sleeper game on. It's like kind of like that. But they sell these at publics. You've probably seen them, or now you'll see them because the type of mind.
I don't think I've ever seen him before, but now I will.
Yeah, they're using any of the berries. So they're similar to a.
Leichi, but they're not are they hard or soft?
They're super soft. They have a have a pit, so there's a seed in the middle, but the actual outside is very jelly white, is like the whole thing. Yeah. So, like so you have the outside shell which has all like the hairs on and everything, and then it's like a reddish brown and then you split that pop it up and the outside is like a gel like almost like a jelly type fruit, but it's like super soft. And then the inside there's a seed, but it's kind of almost like a texture of maybe like a plumb on the inside where like super soft. Yeah, but it's all a one piece. It's really good. And they also put them in like Bubba drinks. You can get light chy your Bubba drinks and usually make them like it's a little jelly of some sort. Really good.
I do love a boba drink. When I first had my first boba, though, the texture was weird.
It was like, what am I am? I feel like I'm eating eggs.
Get a little tapioka balls, yeah.
Little like fish eggs or something.
Yeah.
Yeah, they have a little chewy and gummy and when they get super cold they get hard. Yeah.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
You know what's funny is that's that's like me like as a vegetarian, just not having had a lot of experience with things. That was like genuinely, when I first saw bobas, I was like, why are people drinking fish eggs? That? I thought it was terrible And it wasn't until somebody maybe try like a chocolate I was like, this is so good.
Why have I not been drinking?
I was like, oh, because they thought these were little fish eggs at the bottom balls like pudding.
Right, it's like a putty tapioka yeah, similar to that.
Okay, Well, now that we're on that, did you have a moment where you feel like you like really matured. Maybe it's now like in your adult from being an adult to being like a dad, did you have a moment where you're like, oh, I'm truly a dad now.
Like a dad moment or just maturing in general, like kind of like how my drink.
I was like, Oh, yeah, I've grown up. I'm not drinking the same things anymore. It's a small thing, okay.
In your day to day life where you're like, oh wow, maybe it was a moment where you're like, I'm a dad and I can't do this anymore.
Yeah. I think the dad thing maybe be in the first one. When he was born, my son and he came out, I was like, oh shoot, like perspective on everything is completely different now. I have a whole different responsibility now and not responsible for this person, but I'm also responsible for keeping myself alive because I don't. I want to be there for this person for as long as I possibly can be, especially to a point where they can will remember me as an adult. I would hope I'm there for everything. So I think that would be a big moment. Another moment was maybe when we bought our first house, I was like, whoa, Like, we own a home and we're no longer renting, and who oh my god, I don't think I ever could afford a home.
He had a mortgage.
He had a mortgage, which is cheaper than rent, by the way, But just the hardest part I learned about buying a home is having the money down to buy the home, because once you have the money down, the payment on a mortgage is way cheaper than rent. Then you're owning something, and for the most part, depending where you live within the country, well.
And depending on how much you're able to put down, right exactly, because that's where it really gets people too, because you can put some down, but then the payment months of months get is higher.
The taxes are higher too, and then all the fees and stuff. I think it's ten percent is the one where you want it to be. It's where you avoid fees and higher taxes. But then a lot of them they do like the five percent. Maybe it's twenty percent. I think it's twenty percent down to avoid everything, which is a lot. It's even ten percents a lot, but a lot of times they do like the two or three or five first time buyers, which is great, but then on the back end, you're spending a little more money. But then you own a home, so you should putting money towards something versus just you know, literally throwing it in the air and get rid of it.
Yeah, it's funny. I wish they would have taught us about that stuff in school.
They don't teach about financial economics or anything.
There's nothing they teach you, you know.
I feel like school is truly only a thing to get you ready for the workplace. Workforce. Think about the bells. Oh yeah, like almost like like the bell rings you gorings at lunch, You go to lunch, the bell rings, Lunch is over, and you go back to work, and you're learning a lot of like just like mundane some of it. It's good to know it because knowledge is power. You got to learn how to read and write and math and all that. But once you get past the basics, then it's all like you're taking tests. You're learning for a standardized test and the school can get funding.
Well, there's a you can go down a really deep rabbit hole on this. I remember reading into it. I do not know where it came from and where it lies because I can't of course place the video now, but it was something of how the industrial revolution is what changed and how we had to start going to school because of it. There's this whole like theory of history of and we just like never.
Woke up one day and been like, no, we probably shouldn't do that anymore.
It was more like we're just going to keep continuing down that path to be this like workforce. Yeah, because of that revolution that happened.
Yeah, we're all work for it. We're not really focused on us as human beings and how we are, the way we are and what we are, what we are, and just enjoying even just enjoying planet Earth. Yeah, the planet Earth is truly a gift in itself. Think about this. In our galaxy. This is one of the very few that actually has oxygen and water and all the things that come together to make what we have, and we're able here to we're here to supposed to experience it. A lot of us never do. We don't because we're in this workforce and that I didn't realize that makes sense to an industrial revolution, right, it makes a lot of sense.
Yeah, Oh, I want to take a quick break, but I want to dive into this market.
I want to take a quick break.
Well we have to.
Oh so you want we have to? So you don't want to then no, yeah, we said you want to take a quick break.
Though No, sorry, I mean we have to.
I'm legally obligated right now to take a quick break.
Hold on thoughts.
All right, thanks, I already forgot it.
Okay, I hope you remember.
It because you took that damn break and I forgot it.
I had to. I've been legally contracted to do that.
Okay, Well I'm not so I could have said no, no.
Breaks start, both of us are Hey, back to the workforce. No, it was it was a really cool rabbit hole that I went down that I never really thought about. But it was just this entire process of like they basically created, like the Industrial Revolution happened. They created systems to put us in a workforce to continue that same process.
And then it's like we never stopped.
To be like, hey, let's reevaluate because we're not like no longer in this situation. That was why the industrial rued it, and instead we just continued and we've stayed that way.
So now we're just this place of like workforce.
And they also talked about the comparison to Europe, where Europe's very different there's a lot of work life balance and there's not this that happened. It was a really crazy rabbit hole that I went down about that. I think you would love it.
I would love to see that is something you saw on was like a was it a video series a documentary?
It was on YouTube.
I think it was like this YouTube series and they were just talking about this whole process. And I was on it for a while because that's typically also where all you're because it's probably labeled like a conspiracy theory or whatever, just because it's a free thought, that's not a norm.
And so it was wild.
I'll see if I can find it to have you watch it, because it was it was interesting. Changed my whole perspective on schools and now I'm like that made sense why schools were not being taught thing to like live our lives, where being things that will help us just in the workforce. No, continue and get jobs, because that's your the whole point. You're a senior in high school where you're gonna go to college. Okay, once you're in college, what are you going to do with your life?
Exactly?
Yeah, that's the whole question you get. It's not like, hey, do you know how to manage your money? Do you know how to make sure like you're going to be able to survive in the life?
Yeah?
Yeah, yeah.
Crazy.
And it's also funny that you brought up It's not really funnycase. I'm not laughing, No one's laughing, but it's interesting that you brought up not laughing when you talked about the comparison from here overseas, because even when you look at our foods and I'm sure you've seen videos of this online where our foods are even different from what they put in it because of preservatives and stuff like even something as simple as frosted flakes over there, it's called something little bit different, but it has the tiger on there and all that stuff, but the ingredients of inside the cereal is completely different to where it's healthier over there, and it's actually way worse for us over here.
Yeah, you know, that's you know, it's funny you.
Say, it's a lot of different foods and drens.
This has been popping up a lot on my timeline lately is like I saw Jillian Michaels, you know who that is.
She was like Health, Big Fitness.
Yeah, she's on that one TV show like the had to Lose Weight or whatever.
Yeah, And then there was like health experts that came out and I've seen they've been talking to Congress. They're talking about our foods and like what is in them? And there there was even a congress woman who brought a fruit loops box of cereal from the US and from Canada, and Canada's literally.
Had no colors and ours had colors.
There you go, and it was like, why are we not eating and consuming the same what's happening?
Yeah, well, why are they getting at that? And why are we getting this?
And then all the things that are banned here are there that they're not banned here?
Crazy? Took this long for us to realize that because people have been traveling forever and people have the internest around for a while, why has no one ever blown this whistle?
I think it's because for a long time we saw it as a culture thing, right, Like you go to these different places, you're like, oh, culturally this is they do like farm to table Europeans do like farm to table and then you come to America, it's like, oh, you guys love like these processed foods. It's like truly people come and they get that experience and then they like it because they're getting the American experience.
True, yeah, they just yeah.
And so I don't think until like we really started to realize that people were getting sick and not feeling good, like yeah, it's like long COVID right, like you're now seeing the long term all dat.
It looks like yeah, because you couldn't ever tell that five years in or whatever.
And also when did it start happening, because our food hasn't always been that way?
No, it hasn't. No, it it recently started, I think with the lastly thirty years.
Yeah, like a couple decades and the whole like sugar.
I really think a lot of when all the marketing stuff started happening, the commercials of like make sure you know you drink your milk or anything of that, where they really started to like push us in one direction.
It's really where that probably.
Took off a lease, even push cigarettes like hey, cigarettes are good for you and it makes you really cool. Yeah, and they were like everywhere and people are, yeah, I gota smoked cigarettes. They're really cool. We my doctor smoking cigarettes right now in my office.
Yeah.
Now it's like, don't do that because it's everything's in industry right, everything is making people money.
Were you ever conscious enough, because it definitely was around when you were born, know that when they would be like smoking a non smoking section, Like you go to a restaurant, they're like smoking or non smoking. You remember that ever being asked from like a server or not server, but the hostess.
I feel I got restaurants ever since I was young. It was always non smoking at that point. But we would go to like bowling alleys and stuff, and bowling nowings wouldn't be.
Yeah yeah, but when you go to a restaurant like Red Lobster, you get a red Lobster and they go, oh, I'm mean in a party like uh seven smoking or non smoking?
You know what I do.
Now that you're saying that, it's like it's just like young Morgan when it happened.
But yes, yeah, And it's the weirdest thing is like you're like, oh, it must be like in a completely different area where it's like it's like closed off with a door and a wall, and so it separates no smoking and non smoking was literally just same restaurant. It's just one side of the restaurant and one was the other side of the restaurant. Travel travel. Yeah, by the way, yeah, it's it's it's like it's like it's like a gas or whatever it is, and it goes all over the damn place. And then, by the way, the bathroom was always by the smoking section, So if you had to go to the bathroom, we'd walk into the smoking section. You have to smoke all around you. And if you were in that section that was next to the smoking section, which then my mom would complain a lot. She's like, oh, we could smell the smoke. I have three kids or four kids. Oh I'm sorry, man, We'll move you over there. But it was still over there too.
Yeah, doesn't make any sounse. This is so true because my mom would also complain.
This, Yeah, h we're too close to it. Like the only way to not be in a non smoking section was to eat outside. That was it.
Well, And that's also funny you say that because when I was a Buffalo Wild Wings waitress, I'd be like, would you like Like they'd be like is there a smoking I'm like, if you want to sit outside on the patio, okay, okay, Like I even remembered that being a thing. But then when I was working at Buffalo, they banned it entirely at restaurants.
Is when I think that happened.
Okay, Yeah, it was weird. I was like, even as a kid, I logically was like, but that doesn't make sense. Mom, it's the same building. She's like, I know, I know it.
Whatever, it's not even just the same. It's the same.
Everything, same room, the same place. It's the same open wide space. The only thing separating it was the bar, But the bar was it was like, it just was mind blowing.
Yeah. Well, and you know, hindsight's always twenty twenty right when you're doing it, it's happening, and it's just the norm. You don't know to question it or do anything differently until one person does it again.
It's all about research and data. People are like, well, people are still going in, they're exposed to it, and it's actually bad for them, so we can't do it anymore. Even like seat belts, Well, people are dying on cars because of There's a thing called physics and there's three laws and they come into play and so a seatbelt is needed.
Or then like the development of like debit credit cards is like, no, we only use cash.
That's a communist thing. We ain't doing that.
So funny, it's it is funny to see like the way we've evolved, but also just the more knowledge we have. Yeah, it's scary.
The more things you hear about. I don't want to know anymore. I know, you get to a point where you're like, I do you know?
Yep. Some it's good, though someone's like this is this is great, and so we're like, oh my god, it's good, but I'm also scared.
It just makes you feel very you have a lack of control of situation because there's not a lot you can do right, Like you can only eat so healthy, but if it's in everything you're touching and nothing, like, there's nothing you can do so so many levels. Okay, we're done on our little tangent, will be right back, or you take one more quick break that we have to take.
Okay, we have to take its obligated. I know you've you said it differently the time. Last one was like I want to take a break and I was like, well, I don't want.
To take a break trying to be gently nice about it.
You know, all.
Right, have you ever received a gift that brought you pure happiness? And let me tell you this is why this came out. Because my friends sent me an emotional support pickle and emotional support pickle, and every time I see it, I smile.
It's a little sown pickle, like a little green sown pickle.
Okay, And it literally says, I'll pull it up so you can see it. It says emotional support pickle. I will always be around to let you know that you're a big deal.
Oh oh, I was envisioning actual pickle. Well, at some point you have to eat that thing and get another a little sown I was all saying some email pickle, like seventy five times. I was like, well, there's a good thing. I'm definitely following along. There's a pickle involved in this.
Well, it's been my happiest gift I've gotten and reaching you got one. One of my friends gifted my group of my girlfriend's gifted them, gifted one to me. Gotcha, okay, send me a little care package and that was in it.
And I was like this is the cutest little thing ever.
Has me like try to destroy and rip it.
No, it's it's up on the table, but Hazel does try and whack it sometimes.
Pickle that makes sense.
Yeah, she thinks it's one of her cat toys.
But that's that's been made me really happy. So anything recently you've gotten that just made you happy, And you're like, I just never would have known I needed or wanted this.
I don't really get a lot of gifts.
I would have been thinking a little bit if you were answering.
But it's okay, stupid fires. By the way, happy weekend. It's Wednesday, and so I'm middled of workday.
I'm sorry.
I had a cancel meeting, which is fine to do this, and then I got to go to the grocery after this and get some stuff for my kids fall festival. Anyways, what would I say is a gift that made me go, oh my gosh, wow, I haven't got one of those in a while, So I don't really know. I think maybe or just.
Something that it could have been.
You bought something for yourself and it made you so much happier than you really anticipated.
I'm trying to bring some happiness.
What's it like to be happy?
And that was a depressing twist.
You asked, and I gave you the answer.
I was trying to make you happy.
You didn't have to ask happy questions when we're probably not. I'm just kidding now. I'm just all like crazy to see if I can somehow a gift to pop in my head.
That's okay, I can't think of what.
Oh my wife got me overalls.
Oh we did talk about you were wearing the overall. You haven't warn them for a while.
It's been it's been summer. It's been one hundred fing degrees outside the studio.
It's freaking antarctica.
I still do other things when I leave here. I have to go pick up the kids and do all this stuff i'm outside. But she got me overalls. And I've always wanted overall since I was a kid because Criss Cross and they had that song, so I remember just seeing the basic make you jump that one jump jump, come on, make it jump jump.
I got a reference.
Yes, because there's another one House of pain jump around, and they're pissed off because they had that song first, and they had to overshadow Criss Cross because Criss Cross. I think this came out first, and they kind of like screwed him, like, well, we have a song called jump Around, said the same kind of thing almost but different anyways, and the guy in House of Pain is also he Lo.
So I just actually know I really want to hear the story. I just I had jammed my finger in a door this morning, and I just actually like put it on the chair and scrape to this.
STA actually started trying not to cry.
Oh my gosh, you take another break so you can cry more commercials continue. So yeah, it's ever clear. Ever Clear is the rapper and House of Pain? He was ever clear first he failed started House of Pain with his friends that jump around, jump up, jump up and get it down, yea jump. It came ever clear, and you merely might know what it is like, what it's like, and you really might know what it is like that which you play music? I played for you? I know.
House of Pain?
But which Okay, House of Pain and Chris cross Cross. Which one had the overalls?
The Criss Cross because there were two kids that wore the overalls, but they wore them backwards. I was like, man, it's so cool, I want overall. So bad, and then I wanted them for a long time. Then I just kind of like, I'm never going to get them. It's fine, is what it is. And then overalls were like hard to find, you can't find anywhere, and then I forgot about it. And my wife one day we were somewhere and I was like, oh my god, overalls. I've always wanted overalls. And she remembered that and she got me a pair of overalls for Christmas. I think it was this past year.
I feel like it was this past year because I feel like this is a recent gift because.
I wore them in February for CRS or March whatever it was. Yeah, and I was like, I was like, oh my gosh, you got me overalls. I've always wanted overalls.
You wore them for you wore them a few times, like within span. But then it did get summer too, yeah, then.
It got hot yeah yeah so yeah. And then so that was one of those moments where I was like, man, this is like something I wanted for my childhood. And so it's been like twenty plus years, you know, wanting this, and you remember almost thirty years.
Actually, geez, your wife made childhood scuba happy.
Yeah. I remember I almost I think I was crying a little bit. I was like, Wow, this is what it feels like to be happy. This is so cool.
No, listen, Scuba, let me tell you something. That childhood side of you that like has stuff in there.
Yeah.
Like I was on a on a therapy call and I like basically I had said something. She goes repeat that and she's like, how old do you feel right now? And I was like six and it just came out of my mouth like I wasn't even thinking yeah, And she was like, yeah, this childhood morgan something happened there.
Yeah, you should probably dive into that. And I'm like freak or she yeah, or she been what's happening right now?
Yeah? And that was probably like for you that moment where like the whatever age you were like when you wanted of.
Nineteen ninety seven opening it up and not being there, but then this time in this alternate universe, it was like, oh my god, and.
It was that childhood version of you that's now healed because you got it exactly. Is that crazy, actual real concept, Like there's a childhood version of you that was like that really hurt you.
I finally checked the box because like.
That, when people talk about trauma, it could be so many different things. It doesn't have to be like she pointed out to me, She's like, you could have been left with your grandparents for a weekend and it really made you sad, and like that can be something you hold on to for decades. So for you, the deck, like you could been holding onto for decades at that Christmas, you didn't get those overalls.
I know it's been buried, and I just buried it because we bury our emotions.
Yeah, and you were never able to get a pair.
And now all of a sudden, like now that childhood version of scuba, whether you were six, seven, eight, nine ten, however old.
Was now healed thirteen fourteen, fifteen sixteen, I could keep going. I'm not gonnall.
Okay, anyway, I think it's one hundred now said were good if they could see your face. You guys a lust Fox Council Hunter two.

Anyways, what about Elizabeth?
That's what it's subjects here real quick.
That's funny.
As I start to you know, date again, get me what what do you think is a great first day? Because I feel like my great idea of a first date has kind of changed.
What was your great idea of a first daid?
Well before, I'd.
Always to like, go grab a drink and you get to know each other for a little bit whatever. But now I think it's either you should go on a walk because no obligation.
That could be short, that could be long, and we had to buy anything. There's no certain things. It's like the perfect first date.
I would say, you should say, if we were to go to church on Sunday, which one would you pick?
Oh?
No, no, no. The first question I'm asking before we even get to the day is what is yours? How attached to it are you?
Or do you go on a Saturday for Sabbath? How many candles do you light around Christmas time? Do you like candles that already put up a Christmas tree?
You want to know something really funny?
Huh. I'm not Catholic, by the way, so we can't mix.
I'm not like truly ready to start talking about like dating and stuff.
Again, but I did. I did get put myself back on the.
Dating mapp just to like, just to see what's And there was a guy who matches me Scuba that.
Was Jewish line. It was like a pickup.
Line, and I literally responded, No, I wasn't going to.
Match this guy. I'm not going to go out with this man.
I just responded, I said, you're about six months too late because I just had my heartbroken by.
A Jewish man. I don't need that lesson.
Bye.
And apparently there's a freaking Netflix movie coming about out about my life.
About women who are not Jewish dating Jewish guys.
Yes, no, it's Kristin Bell and she's a podcaster and she's dating a rabbi.
Get out of here, you serious.
I'm not kidding.
They must have started writing like last week.
Kidding you.
They win the production real quick.
Kristin Bell is the one that people tell me that I look like too.
That's even more weird, Like.
I'm telling you, what does it come out in like this weekend? This weekend?
Oh so it's like, okay, gotcha, I'm telling.
You it's my life and I refuse to watch it. You know why, because Hollywood is gonna make them have a happy ending.

This, nobody wants on Netflix.
Okay, September twenty sixth.
Who plays the rabbi? Is it somebody?
Yeah, it's it's the guy, Adam.
Brody, Adam brob gotcha.
Yeah, And it's all about and then there's like a you've seen the trailer. It's the mom who's like, you're never marrying my son or whatever.
I mean, I'm not kidding me. It literally looks like my life.
What's that one with Jennifer Lopez? Similar kind of script where it's like, you're never marrying my sollar, you're not good enough for my son.
Isn't that monster in law?
Monster la?
Yea?
I think that's that one.
Yeah, that's a great Mecanic Yes, and.
Yeah the mother is like you're not good enough. Yes, same kind of same exact script, but just different.
Just know about religious not religion.
Yeah, that was about money.
Yeah, just so happens to be one of my celebrity people that I look like.
She's a podcaster and he's Jewish.
Exactly, and it looks like your ex for real.
That's crazy anyways.
Oh wow, okay, yes.
Well I'm perfect idea for our first aid.
Yeah.
I think the walking around is great because my third day with my wife was walking around San Francisco. We have one of those ones where we met about my place. She parked in my garage wasn't an innuendo for anything, or parked in her garage, that'd be an innuendo. But we just walked around. We just walked around. We just literally parked the car and we walked all around San Cisco. And I didn't have a lot of money, so I we just kind of walked around, went to like maybe two We got ice cream at one with spot, we got a snack somewhere, and then we ended up at a bar and had a couple of drinks and then I parked my car in a garage.
At least you're married now, so's But I.
Think the walking around is a great one because again, again you're not tied to anything, and it gets too weird. You can just start f and.
Running totally be like, you know, this has been great exactly, squirrel, and you can't have any of those scenarios where like I was trying like Venmo or Vimo request you and be like pay me for that work.
Doesn't it work out or whatever?
Out? Yeah, you know, that's a great I think the walking around is a great one, Like go somewhere downtown, meet and just walk around downtown and just see where you end up.
And it's a little bit more personable too, like you're standing next to somebody trying to actually talk to them.
You're walking, yeah, walking and talking. Yeah. I think it's great. And you get to go like where would you want to go, Like I want to score over here and grab some quick snack or something, you know.
And then it can evolve to something else exactly.
Yeah, then you can park his car in his driveway, but eventually you're driving a horse.
Ever does anymore anyone knows? And I have to sit here talking about Netflix.
Maybe that's not my life exactly. Don't ask me where they can find me. I don't care where they can find me.
Okay, well you can go listen to my new podcast take this personally.
That's cool.
I take my take, my take this personally.
Okay, you know, actually we should I both use it because I have a childhood trauma like specialist therapist on there talking about Okay, childhood trauma and how it impacts you in adulthood, also how parents can be better like parents and helping their kids to not hopefully grow up and.
Experience some of the things that like maybe we've experienced.
That's a good one. Yeah, you're hitting two good buttons there. Okay, yeah, I didn't law how does there hit chi good buttons there?
I know it was just a reference to buttons.
And then we were talking about the inn window with the garage.
