In this podcast, Morgan and Scuba Steve nerd out over the things they’re excited to experience and see in 2023. Scuba Steve talks all about the birth of his 3rd child, and Morgan gave an important dating reminder. They both shared the last time they were proud of themselves and if they’ve ever been a hero in a situation.
It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two. What is up, y'all? Welcome to the Best Bits. I'm Morgan and super excited to bring on a show member with me this weekend. That is a brand new triple dad. Triple dad, yeah, because you're not taking a brand new dad, but you're now a new dad of three. Yes. Yeah, we are out and numbered and we are overwhelmed. Yes, and Scuba Steve, thanks for coming on, and we're gonna talk all about the baby, but we're gonna talk about some other things and dive into it because you know, we gotta hook line and sinker. Oh yeah for listeners, right, yeah, just in the middle, give a little cushion, yes exactly. So we gotta get started though, because we got a lot to talk about and coming in at that number seven spot. Anna Kendrick was on the show this week. It was her first time ever being on the show and it was cool to hear from her as an actor and just her whole orc and everything she does, and talked about why she never goes to see her own movies in public. Just to really cool interview all the way around. But we're not going to talk about Anna Kendrick Scooba. We are going to talk about some movies or TV shows that you're looking forward to seeing this year. It's twenty twenty three, we're in January. Yes, we got a lot of stuff coming out this year. Is there anything you're excited to see as far as movies and TV shows go? There isn't any that I'm excited, mostly because I don't really know what's coming out as far as TV shows. I haven't died. I was opportunity to leave, and normally I look at Netflix and what's coming up, mostly for guests and stuff, but I like checked out. Really Yeah, Hey, you know, when you do have two other kids and a new kid, that's kind of what you do. I have other things I'm excited about that are coming this year, not moving TV related. If you want those, yeah, of course I want those. I'll give my movie and TV shows, but I want to hear yours first of all your random categories. So my category is only one thing is theme parks. Okay, a lot of really cool things coming at Universal in February. Universal Studios in Hollywood first, because it's smaller landscape. They did the exact same thing with Harry potter. They open there for a smaller easier to get going. They're opening up and you're probably seen it online in the tendo world, did see where you literally you immerse yourself you go down that long set of escalators, which, by the way, you have been to Universal Hollywood. I haven't. I don't know how this. So if you ever go, and anyone listening who has been, they're probably thinking the same thing. The escalators. It is so scary, so universal. In Florida, it's flat, there's no mountains or hill, so everything's fine. But in Hollywood it's built on like a mountain a canyon, and so the theme parks and the studios are all over this mountain and there's like roads everywhere. But for people who go to the theme park to separate from the top part of the park and the bomb part of the park, there's all these escalators that are going down a mountain and they're big escalators. And we're not talking like ten steps, like I'm talking like hundreds of feet, multiple ones. And I've always thought about this, like how has no one ever fallen and like hurt themselves with drinking and just being a theme park and all that, And I don't know how I got in this tangent of the of the escalators, but I always remember the escalators being like, how has the one ever hurt themselves on this? This is so scary, and they say don't sit on them. I feel like it's safer to sit on the escalators then it will be to stand on them. M okay, that's definitely a new one. I've never heard of sitting on an escalators, so these must be pretty terrifying. If you saw. It's one of those ones where you look up at it and it's like the stairway to Heaven. It's so high up that it's intimidating and scary. Going up, it's not so bad, but but going going down on it, or going up and then looking back down at it, I'm like, holy crap, how is this the means of transportation to get down to the bottom side of the theme parks? Yeah? Your escalators is gonna be as scary as you ride at an amusement park. Yeah, almost like you would need a ride to get down there. I'd rather have that than take esclats what are they called gondolas or gondola? Yeah, less liability, I feel like, yeah, with alcohol involved in a theme park. But anyways, you take the escalators to go all the way down to go to the new part of the park and it's Nintendo World, okay, and that's the first one coming to Hollywood Orlando gets. There's I think I think the first one was overseas in China. Universal in America is the first one. Then Orlando will be the bigger one because they've got more landscape to cover. To say, Orlando always gets some big stuff, the biggest one that comes in twenty twenty four. But this year, in February, a month from now, Hollywood Studios opens up there in Nintendo World, and it looks so freaking cool. I did see somebody, somebody I follow with an iHeart. They got like early access I think, and they were posting pictures of it, and I was like, wow, this is insane. Yeah, they give you early access. Or when I was an annual passholder like that, would go randomly on a Tuesday and no one's there and I was walking by Harry Potter World wasn't open yet, and then some lady was like, hey, what are you doing. I'm like, just me and my wife were walking around. I want to ride some rides. You want to go check out the Harry Potter World almost like are you serious? And she they like, open up this lifted gate and let like me and some random people go in and check out the world. So they do that a lot. They're like surprised guests to check it out in advance. It's really cool. Yeah, that's really cool. You just hope you're like a lucky one, and then you see somebody else so you're like, dang, I didn't get lucky. Yeah, you walk by and they don't pick you, but they pick somebody else, Like whoa why not me? Yeah? Exactly. That bitterness would kick in very quickly, major bitterness. So that I'm excited about, which I don't know when I'll be able to go see it, but I'm excited for it some point to go see it. Hopefully hopefully go see it this year. And then Tron at Magic Kingdom in Orlando disney World, and we talked about this one a little bit last time you were on, and I think it opens very soon. Yeah, I believe it's I mean within I mean a few months or maybe even like this month in January. Yeah, that looks that's gonna be a it's a one of a kind of experience for that, right, I think. Okay, so amusement parks, I like it. Yes, that's very exciting things to go and visit. And you know I am talking about So this year is my big thirtieth birthday. Yeah, and I'm gonna do it up because you know, you only turned thirty one, of course, And so I we're thinking of going out to Disneyland and Newport Beach and that'd be my thirtieth trail. Oh that'd be awesome, yeah, right, because I like people will crap on it because it's older and smaller, but I like it because it's the original. So you can kind of see because you've been a disney World, and it'd be cool for you because you did it in reverse. You could see the I guess, the evolution of things from where they started there to where he took it and had more space and of course more technology and more money and resources to take a ride like Forsembled Pirates of Caribbean, very different from La to Orlando. You'll see a lot of those differences, and it's really cool to experience that well. And I've heard that the food is better at Disneyland too, which I'm excited really, and it's all it's right. It's much easier to get to because it's all right there, you have you have um what I guess it is like their magic Kingdom is the Castle Park which is on the left, and you have California ad Venture on the right, and then all right there as you walk into it, almost like a tea. You have at the base of the tea is their Downtown Disney and all their hotels and stuff. So there's no driving all over the place to go from park to park or like long commutes. You just everything is walkable within right there. It's it's so cool. See, I love that And the whole reason I really want to go though, is because they I think it was last year or the year before they release the Marvel area. Yes, yeah, and that's what I want to see because I'm a huge nerd when it comes to Marvel's, so I want to go and experience that for the first time. I haven't seen it when I left. When we moved here to Nashville, it was on our construction because we used to be Bugs life and it's just outdated. It was cool. Well, I do love Bugs, I felt, Yeah, it was really it was really cool because like they made it like they had like tall grass and you're writing rides. It was like a like takeout and you're writing in the takeout cup or whatever. Very cool, but it's kind of outdated. Marvel is definitely more on brand for where they're at now. Yeah, for sure. So I will see if it pans out, but that's my plan. That's what I'd like to do for my Thirtiethahs. So cool. It's so many fun, right, and then cars Land is so cool with the Lightning McQueen ride is so much fun. And Credit Coaster. Oh my god, you're gonna have an awesome time, right, it's like the perfect I was like we can go out and hang out in Newport Beach and then we have like a day where I gonna go be my true self, which is a total nerd dizealand it's like the best of both worlds. Oh yeah, and Space Mountains better because it side by side versus a singular one. Yeah. Oh, it's just you're gonna have an awesome time. Okay, you're like eating out for yeah, yeah, can I go with you? Yeah? Can I go in your luggage? Yeah? Of course, Yeah, so yeah, that's because I decided to go. I was like, you know what, I can't guarantee that I'm gonna get married or that I'm gonna have a bachelor at party, but I can guarantee this year that I'm gonna turn thirty, So I'm gonna throw a huge party for it. And you're gonna Newport Beach, which is beautiful. Yeah, the whole, the whole of Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna, all that Santa Monica, Venice, well, Venice on so much because of all the poop on the ground and the Yeah, okay, that's an interesting revelation we have. The further you go up on the beaches, it gets, it gets much more seedier, and especially now it's it's gotten, the crime is really bad. So I recommend you stay Manhattan Beach and down. Okay, you're you're safe there. If you get towards OC, you're better. Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Seal Beach. Oh my god, I'm gonna say I heard it. I've heard also a lot about Laguna Beach, and I think that's near there. It is. Yeah, I think you have more fun in Huntington's Newport and Seal Beach. Especially Seal Beach it's like a hidden gem which is very close to Newport and all that I have like a boardwalk and restaurants like great brunch spots. Even Long Beach is really awesome. Now, Okay, you're going to You're gonna have a lot of fun. I'm real excited for you. Yes, Okay. We we were debating all the places that you could possibly go for thirtieth. I was like, yeah, what's not super expensive that people would be able to do it? And it's kind of like we can do an activity. I don't want to like spend the whole week in drinking. I want to like have some good food, be able to chill out, and then also like have a fun activity. And this is what we came up with, and I was like, this is totally perfect. It's very funn Yeah, and there's a lot of cool like comedy clubs you can go to and see like people like I mean, Bob Saget passed, but he would do these this place in Manhattan Beach and he'd like ten bucks and he'd be an act you would see on an arena tour and they're they're just working out their sets and stuff. So a lot of cool, a lot of cool little hidden gems within that area you're going to be traveling to. Okay, well if it gets a books, for sure, I'm coming to you for all the things to do. Oh yeah deal, yes, okay, So amusement parks was yours? You have any other amusement park rides or anything you're excited about that you know of? Um, I know that the Majana part is going to be opening at Epcot, but I think it's towards the end of this year, maybe early next year. My sister was there, she's an annual pass and lives in Orlando, and Bob Iger was there the other day. This is so funny. So she I saw she posted on Instagram and I was like, holy crap, is that Bob Iger. She's like, yeah, he's right behind me. And then he like followed us for a while, but not like intentionally. And then I was like what was he? Like what did you experience? And she goes, she was, so we randomly were walking in the abcot and about to go to the bathrooms by the front entrance, right there by the ball and then there he was. He was just walking around saying hi to people and employees and checking on the new development behind the wall. They won't say Majana behind the wall, and she goes. He looked like a fake robot that almost like birds aren't real. I'm convinced bob Iger isn't real. I feel like when he goes to bed, they plug him in and then unplug him set him free during the daytime. His teeth are so white, his skin doesn't have any imperfections, and his clothing is perfectly put into place, almost like an animatronic literally like Disney. Yeah, which was kind of crazy to think about, because Disney had these animatronics since the fifties that back then and even now are so mind blowing and so realistic. What if this is their creation of like like I know this is so far fetched, but what if this is their experiment to have the ultimate version of an animatronic that leaves the ride and can move around and function like an AI, but like a really amazing AI. And he's like in charge of the whole company exactly, and they make me charge of the company. But it's like it's like a collective data and like it runs through like us whatever of all the things that we should do and just I don't know. It's a conspiracy theory. Hey, I love a conspiracy theory. Okay, real life animatronic Bob Iger. I'm looking at a picture of him right now and he does kind of look not real. Yeah, yeah, it's a it's a robot, robot programmed with even almost Walt Disney's brain or concepts or ideas or idealism, and it goes through a filter and an algorithm and it created this. Yeah, like maybe maybe Walt Disney was the first of where it was like they're like replicating his genes or whatever. To continue on. Yes, you can't do Walt Disney because it's too freaky. Yeah, so you go you create a guy named Bob, and Bob Iger is a weird name. Yeah, it doesn't like in Walt Disney's a strange name. Yeah. So in that same kind of vein of just having an out there name. Oh yeah, let's start this conspiracy theory. I believe in it. Yeah it's yeah. But if it's true that who cares though, like you should be offended by or whatever people that's ridiculous, Like that's awesome. They were able to create a lifelike animatronic that left the riding and walk around and have opinions and thoughts and run a company. Yes, listen, I'm forever conspiracy theory. I think it's hilarious. I love looking at the universe a little bit differently than we're supposed to. Yeah, yeah, okay, well this is good. I like it. I like it a lot. I also want to talk about some things because there is so many you haven't seen them yet, and some of these are Netflix, okay, and there's so much coming out this year, even just oh gosh, like Disney in general. Speaking of Disney, I'm excited for the new season of Mandalorian, which is Star Wars coming out. There's so many Marvel movies, Aunt Man in the Wasp, Quantum Mania. We've got Guardians of the Galaxy Volume three. Yes, like some really good stuff coming out. And then Netflix has a rom com coming out with Reese, where there's been an Ashton Kutcher called Your Place or Mine that I am so excited for. We're starting to enter like. I believe rom coms are making a comeback in a good way. I don't think they ever went away, but I think the quality of the the ones that we used to watch in like the nineties early two thousands is coming back. Oh yeah, because that quality definitely went down. Yeah, and I feel like we're getting back there. Yeah. Yeah, And that's what I love because Reese Withersman is like Queen of Romcoms. Ye. Ashton Kutcher is also like the keying I guess she could say yea so perfect mix totally. Yeah. So that one's coming out on Netflix I'm excited for. And then, funny enough, I never watched How I Met Your Mother. Oh you didn't know, Well I didn't, which was like a really popular TV show, huge, Yeah, But I did get into the remake, which is How I Met Your Father with Hillary Duff. Yes, because I'm a huge fan of Hillary Duff. I just love pretty much everything she does. And so that first season I watched loved it. In the new season of How I Met Your Father is coming out this month. Is that I saw when I received that. I'm not really sure if it they go on Hulu, but it seems like it's also on live television two or is that one only on Hulu? You know? I don't know. And the reason I say I don't know is because I think I'm going to be doing like the free trial of Hulu to be able to watch this, because listen, I have so many freaking streaming services at this point. I do have Disney. You can do the bundle where it's Disney plus, ESPN Plus and Hulu and it's only like fifteen bucks a month. Wait what? Yeah? You should? You should almost if you haven't done it, and if you can't upgrade and it doesn't make sense, you should almost cancel your Disney Plus, get a new email or whatever. I use another email and resign up for the bundle. And I believe it's like fourteen ninety nine or fifteen dollars for all three of those, because we have a lot for Disney per month? How much do you pay for Disney? Check your bills, girl, I'll tell you right now. Let's just go one way up. But I'm pretty sure Disney was like nine, it's like ten ninety nine. But then they did the plus bundle thing. It was all three of those. Yeah, let me look, let me look at Yeah. You may you may be getting shafted it. You may want to just cancel it all together and start fresh. Maybe it's not well, Okay, I buy the yearly because listen, buy year Disney. I I'm gonna keep forever pretty much. And they do give you a discount for buying yearly, so that that is okay, that makes sense. Then, okay, so you are right. It's well for premium it's ten ninety nine a month for Disney, so not as bad as I thought. It's as I always see the like one hundred dollars charge that I get come through yearly, and that's what I was thinking of. Yeah here, yeah, they have bundle plans, yet use your plan the trio here you go trio which is Hulo, Disney and ESPN plus twelve ninety nine a month, and then the premium with no ads is nine. Okay, Hey, that I can do. Yeah, I like it. I'm gonna I'm gonna look into this now. I appreciate exactly. Yeah, just over here being miserable that I have to keep doing the free subscription. Don't buy Hue Solo too, because and then you're gonna spending even more money. I would just say, probably better just to cancel Disney Plus if you can't add it, well, you know on scuba. This helps me because if I do ever actually have a guy over at my house, then he can watch sports, because as of right now, I have zero sports on television. That's ESPN plus Boom, so then you have all three. That's true. If you want to watch sports that there's a game on or something that's on us. That's typically why I don't because I just don't have it. So I don't try to go like buy it. Yeah, true, true, true, Not very often. I'll just catch it up on social media. Okay, yeah, that's probably. Yeah. I'll be honest too. I mean, I like sports, but I don't mostly because the time. But I don't. I'm not a super passionate sports fan. I have the teams that I like and I enjoy, but I'm not like we're people that work here like lunchbox or whoever where they're just like if they live and die by it. Like I just don't have the energy for that on in the background for pretty much everything. Oh my god. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm not saying just it's not for me. Yes see, I'm the person who has like sitcoms in the background, like yeah, Friends, New Girl. I recently started watching The Mindy Project. Oh okay, it's a good show, which I had never watched before, and I'm obsessed with it. It's a great show. She's an incredible ep and actress. The evolution of that show is awesome. Yes, I'm currently on season two. That's how much i've been in one week. Alf they're like twenty minute episodes. Yeah, it was like forty thousand episodes per season. They're so good though. They're awesome though. Yeah, I'm obsessed. I'm like, why has nobody told me about the show before I can? Okay? Cool, Yeah, that's a great show to get into. Yeah, and another thing that I've been watching recently because I want to know, like, if you've binged anything even though you're you know, you're a lot going on at the house. Yeah, Mindy Project was one of them. And speaking of rom coms, The Wedding Year with Sarah Highland came out on Netflix. Okay, one of their first new movies and it was really good. How was she as because that's the one from Modern Family, right, yes, so how is she transitioning from always doing TV to doing like a film? It's like her first film. I don't think it's her first film because i've seen her another thing, especially even before Modern Family too. Okay, and I thought it was great. She's I think the cool thing about her that I like watching is she's so genuine. You know how sometimes you would watch actors and you're like they're really fighting to play this character. Yeah, with her, it's almost like everything just feels very natural. Okay, that's just who she is. Yeah, And that's how I felt like watching her in this movie. It was just very much her Okay, And it may not be who she is in real life, but that's how I felt watching her. Okay, like I could be convinced that was her in real life. But that means that she's doing a great job at a role because you think that's her when whenever someone plays that role so well with would be good, bad or whatever, you're like, Okay, I won. Yeah, I forget some we had on the show. They're talking about the role. I think it's the guy, Um, I forget his name, but he wasn't Walking Dead on our show a few years back, The Bad Guys, the bald guy, Yeah, Michael something. I think his name is Frank cast. Google is great for this. Brian Cranston, no um, Walking Dead Dean nor Walking Dead Bad. Yeah, he's in the first season that he had, like the arm that he had put on whatever. He's one of the bad guys, cass who did we have on? He was the really mean guy Michael I think his name was Michael something, but he wait, no, that's a Michael Michael. There's Michael Rooker. Oh you could have told me Guardians the Galaxy, Guardians the Galaxy. Yes, yes, Dush, you're done that? Yeah? Where he plays that, always plays that like that mean tough guy. And then I think Bobby asked him, He's like, do you ever have that problem in public or whatever? Or do you want to say anything? He's like no, He's like, if people view me as that, he goes, that means I'm doing my job because because in real life, I'm just this, you know whatever, just normal dude, happy, nice guy. But if I evoked that kind of feeling, then I did a really great job in my role because you I convinced you. Yeah. So yeah, so it's a great thing, yes for sure. And I think there's a lot of that now, especially with with this one. I also watched The People We Hate at the Wedding with Kristen Bell Okay on Amazon, and that was really cute. Okay, these are both rom coms. That's why I say I feel like the quality of rom comps is kind of coming back. Yeah, and both of these are really enjoyed. Okay, Amazon, Netflix, two different things. There's also okay, were you a fan of the National Treasure movie? Oh? Yeah, I love the movies with Nicolas Cage. Okay, well you can watch this Nias Cage. Was that Tom? Yeah, Nicholas Cage, you got it? Who's the moment Tom Hanks? When Tom Hanks was doing it? Thomas Hank did National Treasure? He did Thomas Hank excuse me? Did you do some sort of thing like that where he remember his hair being like jet black and like like parted back or something. Yeah, but I don't think that nothing National Treasure related. It's definitely Nicolas Cage. Nikolas Cages that one. Okay, he steals the Declaration of Independence? Yes yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, But so you can watch this with your kids on Disney because the daughter, right, yeah, it's well not Nicholas Cage's daughter, but there's a National Treasure TV show. No, she's not his daughter. Oh I thought that this was his daughter, like his daughter or something. Well, so I haven't quite figured out, because they dropped one up so a week. There is somebody in there, and I'm not sure her connection to the old show yet. I haven't quite figured it out or the old movies. But there's a new one that is a daughter of somebody. But they introduced those characters right in the first episode, so it could be the blonde character in here that I haven't quite found her connection yet. Okay, you might be referring to Okay, gotcha the Da Vinci code. That was Tom Hanks okay, which felt like national kind of right, Yes, the same damn thing. Fair. I was so confused. What is that? Sorry, No, it's okay. Thomas Hanks, Thomas Hanks. That but that was the best thing I've heard all day. Thomas Hanks. I think only his mother calls him that. Maybe his wife too. Yeah, well you've seen him, so maybe you can call him Thomas. Maybe when you at a very professional level, you know, Yeah, please call me Thomas Morgan. Oh well, the National Trevor TV show Okay on Disney Plus is really good. Okay, cool? I would love to see that. It's safe for kids, right, yeah, you can probably want it? Gets like, there's definitely action in it, but they won't know what's going on. It's not like bloody or gory or anything. There's just definitely some like fight scenes and stuff like that. But it is really good, and each week I get excited when a new episode drops. That's how I know it's good. Okay, cool. I love the weekly because I'm we talked about before, how you I'm a crotchy old man with like with things like that, and I feel like giving it once a week it was always so special because then you had something to hold onto for a whole week and the excitement of waiting for it and the anticipation and the conversation and the speculation and then like, binging is fine, but on some things, I feel like but some things you want to kind of wait for it and have that. I feel like anticipation in waiting and patience is overlooked and forgotten and it's such a beautiful thing. Yes, I do like it that we're doing it with new shows, and I like binging old shows because it's like everybody's already seen it, yes of course that yeah, yeah, yeah, So I do like the balance of that. That's what they should only be. I feel like old shows should only be bingeable because they're old shows and they've already happened. They're not real time, and all new shows should be once a week. Okay, Hey, you heard it from Scuba Steves. So if something changes, Scooba, Steve's in on the FBI and they changed everything. Yes, I've been wanting this for a long time, that's what I believe. And then the last one, I watched all of the Mission Impossible movies for the first time. Okay, yep, because they are a lot, a new one coming out this year and a new one coming out next year, ninth and tenth, right, so that's seven and eight okay, very much, almost six of them. Fast and Furious type thing where they're just coming out with so many Oh my gosh, was so much better, way better. Fast and Furious is super corny and dumb. Yes, and I didn't I didn't have any anticipation going into these movies besides the fact that it's Tom Cruise and their action movies. That was it. Yeah, and then you know that he's doing a lot of the stunts himself, which is even more incredible. Yes, I loved them, Okay, really enjoyed these action movies. And now I'm excited to be a part of them coming out in theaters this year and next year watching them. Yeah, yeah, that's really cool. And I one of my favorite ones was Ghost Protocol if you happen to remember that at all vaguely, Yeah, I saw when it came out, so was a while ago. Yes, And this is where Jeremy Renner gets introduced as a character, and it just kind of like really picks up. It's kind of the middle of the thing. And but yeah, I enjoyed them. So if you're looking for like a I feel like if anybody wants to see like a binging movie series, that's the one that's what they should watch. Yeah, it's a great From what I remember, those movies are fantastic. I loved all of them. Yeah, they're some more than others, but I definitely love them. It's almost kind of like the the r version of like the I know they still make them though, But James Bond where it was really biger than seventies. Yes, like the action thriller, and there was a bunch of them and a bunch of yeah, the same kind of thing for us. I haven't seen the James Bonds, so maybe that's I like doing these movies series where I binge and like see if I like them today, and Bond I think you liked too, because it's cool because the Bonds change over time. Yeah, you know, it starts with Shatner and how many of the how many of those are there? There's a lot of them. I don't feel like anything's gonna be as bad as when I tackled Marvel and Star Wars. So that's a lot. And that's also confusing because it's all over the place in different worlds and everything. James Bond is just James Bond. It's just different actors throughout the different decades. But it starts from one. It goes all the way to mere. So probably fifteen of them, maybe fourteen nighteen sixty two. Okay, wow, and let me let me count one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seven, eighteen, nineteen twenty two four. That's more than Marvel. Wow, that is more than Marble. But easier to decode. What's one too? Yeah? There is? Yeah. Yeah, we talked about the show. I felt like, yeah, yeah, but it's easier for you to figure out the chronological order of it versus Marble. You need a freaking map to figure out what goes next because there's so many there's so much crap on that. Wow, this is great. Yeah, I'm looking at all of them, all the different like names of them and stuff that would be a like, that's like, that's commitment. That's a lot. I didn't realize there's that meant. I thought fifteen Okay, But are all like the og Ones really good or they kind of like ma now I haven't I've only seen maybe a couple of the og Ones, but I feel like they're classics, so you have to kind of appreciate it for what it is, like kind of you're going to Disneyland and seeing the classic in the original I feel like you have to see it because I don't know if they all intertwine or if it's important, but I feel like it's important for the integrity of the series. Yeah, well that's what I think. It's really cool to watch movie series and just see like what has transpired over time. And that's why I wanted to watch Mission Impossible because I was like, yes, Marvel's so cool because of how it's been created and how they've created this whole universe, but Mission Impossible was just kind of standalone, and it's just been such good movies that they keep making more. Yeah, I'm like, okay, like, so let me see what this is all about. And that was kind of what happened. Yeah, so well maybe I don't know. I don't know this big tackle tackle what happened in like two thousand and six. Maybe that's like five Yeah, maybe that's where I start. That's a full project. That's almost like the entire year. You would need to start it now. You would think scuba, but I've beene those marvels in like a month. Okay, well they never mind. Then summer break you'll be able to finish it. Your flight to La and back. Yeah that's true. Okay, you got anything you've been watching? Um so yeah, so we binging we did actually been something. We're not all the way through. We partial binge and we're now getting into towards the end of it. Okay. It's called it's are of the ninety day franchise. It is called Love and Paradise the Caribbean, a ninety day story on TLC. Wait, so a part of like ninety day Fiances yeah, so fiance is the og. It's original. But then because because it did so well, they've almost extended the octopusy tentacles out and created different for a long time and throw the tentacles out and create different worlds within it. They've got like, you know, the overseas where people from America go overseas to their love, which is the reverse because in ninety day Fiance, it's somebody from you know, like Japan or whatever coming to America and that's that's that part. But it's the reverse. It's ninety day in reverse where an American goes over to Europe or over to Iran and leaves the American lifestyle, which is actually really interesting, leaves the American lifestyle to go to their lifestyle, and a lot of them live in thord world countries and their family was like, why the hell are you going to live in the middle of nowhere Africa? And I love him da And then when they go back to America back and forth, the guy cheats on him or girl cheats. It's so much. But then they have different other versions of like after the ninety days and single life, and they have pillow talk, which I hate that one Phillo Talk is the worst because it's it's it's all the episodes, but they have previous cast members sitting on their beds like commentating throughout the episode, and it's so annoying because, yeah, that's not fun. It's not fun because sometimes are fun, but sometimes are just like dumb and sometime it's like you're talking over the episode and I want to watch it and I hate that's the worst one. But this one is interesting because it's the newest one, that's what they've given us. But it's cool because it's the it's the Caribbean, and I love the Caribbean. It's beautiful, so it's fun to watch it. But it's always people going over to the Caribbean different islands for their love. And then it's the now. It's a different take of like all right, you're gonna come to America or I'm gonna come to you, and there's just a lot of cheating and a lot of drama, and it makes me feel good about my life because their lives are so it's in such shambles. So I think we watch it for that reason, and we've watched i think six of the ten episodes so far. Okay, so it's like a reality show. Oh, very reality. Oh yeah yeah. I wasn't sure if it was like scripted or if no, it's real. I mean I'm sure there's some there, maybe some you know, yeah, but it's full on reality. Dang, and it's is it TLC TLC yeah, tance. I almost recommend if you just like something fun and something like because when it first came out it was mind blowing. It was like, I think it came out like in twenty twelve, and I watched the first season, You're like, whoa, this is groundbreaking. It was wround the first time Married at Sight first came out. It was in that era Married at First Sight ninety day Fiance and I remember watching it going like whoa doing this? Calling it out what it is because a lot of them are like, he's a gold digger, he's just trying to come to America or vice whatever that kind of thing. And and then you and it's fun to watch from almost like Bachelor, where you see who's still a couple and who has kids or who divorced. You're like, oh, I knew that was gonna happen or that kind of stuff. Was the Duggers on TLC. They're a TLC family too, Yeah, okay, but they're not this ninety day fiance. No. The Duggers is like that um that Big Family one. Okay, I can't I can't keep the counting or whatever. Yeah. TLC is basically almost like a human Experiment channel where they're like that they they kind of like, you know, put a glass cage around a family that's different and unique. And was that also the TV that had wife swap or was that something that was something else? But it was like it was like that's the kind of stuff it is. Yeah, youah, the Little People show they call Little People, Big World or whatever, The Duggers nineteen and counting things. That's also where remember the one UM plus eight johnny Ca plus eight was on there. I had a wedding show where it was like you go and like you got four weddings. Yes, yeah, I love that show, but I was getting married. I love watching that and you should talk crap about the other weddings and stuff. You could tell who was like really wants the winter. Actually, you could tell who really needs the honeymoon because their weddings sucked and they were they're broken. Then the lavish in the hamp Dunes and they get the free honeymoon. You're like, they don't need it. Yes, but that show was awesomes It was so cool. Do I still make any ones of that? I don't think somebody it's definitely Saturday, Saturday morning, between like six am and nine am. They play the hell out of it. Dang, I need to get tlz is so I can start watch. Yeah you do. Yeah, you gotta have TLZ. Do you not have a cable provider or like or cable cable anymore? Okay? I think TLC's on an app, so you could do it there, or a lot of those shows maybe on other platforms like Hulu. The reason I had to get rid of cable is because I kept watching Hallmark all the time. You weren't watching anything good. I'm just kidding. No, it was like it was like I was just watching you know what I mean, like background noise. I still do it now, but that was not Okay. I like this. I like this show, and this is a good suggestion for a reality show. Yeah, anything else you guys have watched um And then the other thing, this is the more of a kid related one. It's on netflixum Sonic Prime. So it's Sonic, you know, Sonic A Little Blue Hedgehog. Yeah, Jim Carrey, yes, yes, and yeah those movies. So they haven't they've had animated movies or animated TV shows in different versions of niations. The nineties, they have like a nineties morning cartoon Sonic. They had an anime Sonic that came out in the mid two thousands. But this is like the next generation Sonic. So it's really crisp, clean animation, digital graphic animation, and it's really cool because it's Sonic, but it's got some like time travel slash like ultimate Alternate universes love that, which is kind of really cool. So kind of I watch it going, oh, it's really cool, and as someone who grew up in an era of Sega Genesis and Nintendo being really cool, and it's really it's for me. It's fun to watch. So I liked it. I know, I'm I'm all game for it. I love the Sonicketchhog movies. Yeah, so I think you may actually like if you like the movies, you may actually like this animated one because it is pretty cool what they do with it. Okay, yeah, I like it. I'm game for this. I like your suggestions. Thank you. Yeah, And I would also like to knowledge that we have definitely talked about all these TV movies and things we're excited for for thirty minutes. And that's fine, that's perfectly. It's fun, you know why, Because it's a new year. It's a new year. We can do it how we want. By the way, it's a podcast. This isn't time for breaks for radio. I know. I just looked how it's like, dang, we geeking out hard. Yeah, we gonna play a song, play commercials. When we do play commercials, we don't play commercials by a certain time. One thing I want to cap with that you may already know us. But when you go to Disneyland, because you went to I caught MGM, but it's Hollywood Studios in Orlando. We went to Universal. I don't know if that's the same thing. No universals separate. So when you went to Disney you didn't go which steam parks did you go to? We went to Disney World and then we went to Universal Studios. Well, we went to Disney World, Like, there's four parks, do you remember? We went all four? Was okay? Cool? So you did you go off that's why I thought. I wasn't sure. So in Hollywood, you you're a tower of terror. Oh I didn't, but my family didn't. Oh dang, so you're not going to see the difference. Oh I'm such a baby. That's a major Listen. I don't like roller coasters either, but I just jumped myself into it. Once you get into it, it's the initial fear factor of getting onto it. Once you're on it, it's fine. Okay, let me tell you something. Splash mountain. Yes, yeah, a baby drop. It's like forty feet Okay, I cried, he's a baby drop. I cried. Oh, then you would not be able to constant dropping. My my family convinced me because they were all doing it and they're like, you will be fine. And ultimately I was fine, Yes, but I was shaking and I was crying the whole Wow. It's that the It's not a fear of heights. I don't have a problem with hys. I have a fear of the stomach drop. I hate it so much that it made me cry. The only way to combat that is to scream as loud as you ff and can. That's for me that whenever the drop comes you just gotta just you have to let it out, you know, when you get paralyzed in fear. That was me. But okay, but but I feel like screaming it releases the paralyzed. I was literally paralyzed, tear coming out of my eye and I was shaking, and my mom was just like, Okay, Morgan doesn't need to ride it, yea, let's go put her on a small roll. Let's go walk around guys as a leaver diss. So, so yeah, I don't. I don't ride anything with the drops, but I did ride some of the role coasters and I was fine. I did the new Guardians of the Galaxy. It's and if they're like and if they're upside down and stuff, I'm even fine. It's just when the drop happens that really messes with my like whole nervous system. I just shut down. So the difference in that is the Disney World is old, it's two tea, It's based on the Twilight Zone. The one of Disneyland is Guardians the Galaxy thing, and it's so because I'm so afraid of those two and I feel like the Guardians of the Galaxy version is smoother and not as bad as the Orlando one because it's they redid, it's totally refurbished, and the drops are really smooth, and then the soundtrack distracts you from all the dropping, and it's so fun and so cool. Maybe because you're in California, maybe popping edible and and then you wait, wait thirty minutes fort to hit and then just go on it. You won't feel it. It would be great. Oh god, I'll probably feel it worse. I'll probably be freaking panicking. I take a deep brad, drinks and water, have fun, let loose. I'm not afraid of a lot of things with that. Okay, Yeah, but I did get experienced the Guardians of the Galaxy ride, the new one. It's just phenomenal, Like that's the best ride they have all their parts with. So I'll take I'll take that. I'll just focus on that experience, yeah, instead of trying this new one and not be bummed that I'm missing the Guardians of the Galaxy ride. Yeah, you from California, but you got the you got the other stuff we're talking about, like the what's it called? Um, what do you like Marvel? Marvel? Oh? Yeah? If everyone goes right now, like I'll be marvel. I'll just be finding Captain America and eating some food. And the food's awesome there, yes, especially if you go during your birthday months it's October October? Oh are they doing food and wine? Then I don't think they are. I think food and wine happens in Florida that time that time, but I think LA is springtime. That's okay, because I was like, I could go back for food and wine festival in Florida, but I was like, no, I could go to the other one and they can get to see another park. So that was ultimately what was decided. Okay, cool, that's smart. Then. Yeah, and their food there in general, outside of food and mine time is phenomenal. Yeah, because I was I impressed with Disney World as much. Okay, yeah, but and there was like a few favorite standouts, but not overall. I wasn't like, this is really good. You should be checking your give the Disneyland app Oh yeah, okay, cool, good. I know I got experienced with that. Now you need to make your reservations for restaurants the moment that they open up, because I know it's like I think it's every six months they go out six months, So you should be checking the reservations as as soon as you can because those reservations for Disney Tip. Yes, like I would even check now, Like as we're talking, I'll look just for S's and Giggles, I will look for you. But that was the one thing you have to do. You have to look at your reservations in advance because all those restaurants are very popular. And the one that's the coolest experience is in Pirates of Caribbean. They have an actual restaurant in the ride and it's like New Orleans cuisine, but it's just such a cool ambiance because you're outside and it's like it's bright and I need to grease you. Go inside it's completely pitch black and you got the boats going by and really great food. It's such a cool experience. Okay, I like this. I'm looking into this one. Yeah, all the pro tips. I appreciate it, especially because I know people are probably planning their vacations right now, so we're getting all the ideas out there. So as far as you can go is three months at a time. So if you're going in October, then what minus tensil in minus three, so January or July. Sorry the other Jay, so in July the screw, so start checking around June July for a reservation. Okay, okay, I got you. I appreciate the pro tips. Like I said, I'm gonna be coming back to you and I get I'll figured out annual pass weeks ago, once a week. So I got all the tips exactly. See, we're good, we got this. Okay, we're moving on from from TV movies stuff finally, Jesus, I know. Listen, hey, I can geek out all of it. Yeah, but it's only on the things that I really like to watch. I can't like watch all TV movies. It's just like certain genres. Yeah yeah, and that's okay. I got my genres too. Yeah. Okay, his kids in crap Kids crap an amusement part. That's actually what it is. Coming out of the verse. Six. Amy's son shared some hygiene advice on his personal radio show that he started, and y'all love hearing his radio show. So I wanted to include that one here. And we're gonna keep this one short and sweet because you know, like I said, we just geeked out hard for a little bit. But I would like us to share some quick advice because and I'll tell you why Scuba. This happened to me recently. I had to end things with a guy that I was talking to, and it reminded me that there's a reason why you don't ghost people, even when it's really hard. I did not want to send this text message. I did not want to be mean to somebody. I did not want to let them down or you know, I felt bad that I was essentially letting them go. Yeah, But even through all of that, through a lot of anxiety that I had in a full drive to Atlanta that I had to think about it, I still ended up sending the text and he was very apreciative that I communicated and told him. So my piece of advices, don't go even though it's really freaking hard and a lot easier to do that than it is to send the text message. It is, and I feel like it's I feel like chromatically and I think maybe therapeutically, it's probably better to cut ties. Like I remember my wife was telling me one of our friends, who was best friend growing up, became a drug addict. And you know, when you're a drug adict, you say and do things you don't mean you're in a different state. And it was like that for years, and then as a best friend, you try to hold on and try to hold on, and then they get to a place where you just you can't anymore, and you've got your own life, you know, the other thing, and they go down a dark path and eventually their family it's their responsibility to bring them back up, and she did. And then one of the things they tell them is you have to reach out to all the people you did wrong, especially the ones that were like, you're really good friends. And instead of ignoring it and be like, okay, let's start fresh and move on, they're like, no, you can't start fresh until you communicate to those that not saying you did wrong to this guy, but people that you either you were with and something happened you just connected for whatever reason to in this situation doing wrong. You have to go back to them and talk to them and try to make amends. Nothing it to be the best friend. In your case, the same thing too, you don't be best friends with this guy, but at least cut it off, move on and know that you cut it off and gave your response and had an amicable split. Exactly that I was looking for. Yeah, having communication and be all right cool, well deuces, yeah, don't call me ever again. But you know now why and you are good. We're good. Yeah, And at least just to your point, it provides a lot that you probably don't have to spend time in therapy doing if you just send the text message or make the call or whatever you have to do, which is very hard to do. I'm not saying it's easy. It's not like you're you write your name down a sheet of paper. Oh gosh. No, it's a lot because as you start thinking about emotions are involved people's hearts, like and you just realize that you could hurt someone, not intentionally, but and so that's my piece of advice, no matter how hard. And maybe send the text message to make the phone call. Do not ghost on people. Just do it, Just end it if you need to. Yes, some piece of advice. What you got. My piece of advice is don't have more children than you and your wife. I like this, and you know what you're leading us in. So we're gonna that's our teaser. Yeah, we're going into this. Okay, all right, this is perfect because in at number five is us talking about Dolly Parton and her coming on the show. We talked about this because it was her birthday this week. Yeah, and these are really cool stories and I love Dolly Parton. You can see all that on Bobby Bones dot com or our social media. We posted videos of it. But because of a birthday, you know, you had the birth of a child. That's my relation here. I need to hear all the details. That's your segue that Ti. Yes, and your piece of advice was not to have more children though, Yeah, that is one thing, and I don't. I don't want to. I don't want it to sound like I regret having my third child of one hundred percent, don't. I just not saying. And if I were to have another in retrospect, would've done it. No, I would still have done it because I still want more kids. Even now having a third child. I think we could do it again and have a four child, whether my wife agrees with that or not. I was gonna say, I feel like this is one sided. Potentially Scuba yes, um so, But in the scenario that we're in right now, I haven't been two or three weeks. God is it overwhelming? Because well, especially in this maybe it's different for everyone where if so, let's say, for example, if we had our kids and then waited what we were thinking about doing, waited ten years, then it probably would be easier because then you've got two kids that are you know, ten and eight, and they're a little bit more aware and they can communicate a little bit more. But when you got a kid that's four and when that's two, it's nice to get them all done back and back and back like that. But the four year old is just he has big feelings, so trying to figure things out. Lots of transitions already with having another a sibling and now another sibling, and then him trying to figure out you know, he's still at that age of like trying to figure out who he is, you know, not saying who he is. But he's four, you know, he's about to go to school. It's a lot of transieriencing a lot of things for the first time, yes, exactly, and his communication is there, but it's not he's four. He's communicates like a four year old and he's huge. So like when we go to basketball games or anywhere in public, they think he's like six, and I'm like and then I'm like, and I'm like, no, Like, if he that's something that you know, a four year old would do, the like they kind of give him a weird look or me and weird looking. I'm like, no, he's And I'm like, I'll say something like, oh man, big feelings for a four year old, and then something will go he's four, and I'm like, yeah, he's four, that's why he's acting that way. May looking he's much bigger and older, but he's only a four year old kid, So you know, give us a little grace here. Yeah, he's gonna have tantrums. He's freaking four. But then you got and then you got a two year old who just got off breastfeeding, you know, a year ago, and now mom was whipping out her boobs and give him to another child, and she's like whoa, And she's very jealous and she's too so she can't fully communicate at all because she's too and um, and so I caught her. I caught her the other night. We were laying in bed and my wife is breastfeeding our newest baby, and I saw her like do one of these things where she slowly started up with her mouth up and like go for the other boob. And then I was like, du what are you doing? And she looked at me like, oh shoot, caught red handed. Caught red handed. And of course it hasn't you, tan trum. And you can't explain her because she's too like, maybe you can't do this because she doesn't get it, she doesn't care, she doesn't know. She wants it to give me that milk right there. So our solution was my wife, when she's breastfeeding with one boob, she'll put on like a hawker one of these things and pull milk from her other boob and then we'll put that in like a bottle or a cup and give it to her to keep her happy. And she loves it because breast milk is great. It's like it's really it's I mean it's liquid gold. Yeah, so and she loves it, so she's all right. That was our little compromise every once while to give her a little hit of it's like giving a shot of whiskey, you know, at sugar, a little bit of sugar, yeah exactly. Yeah. And then a new baby who's a new baby, and of course it literally has you can't control anything about it. It is what it is. So it's it's overwhelming. It's a lot. Okay, it does sound like a lot, just hearing like the bare minimum of what's happening. Yet, are you guys getting any type of sleep whatsoever? Um, somewhat yes. Her, I think a little bit more less than me because she is breastfeeding, and in the early stages it's cluster feed city like it is, like, which cluster feeding means like they eat like every freaking thirty minutes. They'll eat, spit up, throw up, poop, and then want to eat again. And then as soon as you feel like they're gonna be fine and go down, they want to eat again and eat again and eat again. And it's just really tiring on her. But it's our third time doing it, so it's you know, she's got it. It's totally fine, but it's very tiring on her. Yeah, And then for me, it's almost like lunchbox aet of best. He's like, you're like a single parent with two kids, because then I have to always take care of the other two because she's tied to that one. Yeah, but it's awesome though, so I mean it it sounds like sound awesome, but in the end it's awesome. Do you feel like you're bonding more with your two other kids kind of right now in this moment. Oh yeah, definitely much more. And I feel like less bonding with the other one, which feels weird. But she's getting the bonding which is more important because she's the sole provider for that kid right now. That's my wife is everything to that baby because she's providing everything for it. Yeah, all of its nutrients. Well yeah, but it was a hell of a process to get that baby here though, totally crap. So what happened? If you want to talk about it else? Do yeah? Okay, a whole list of bullet points are what happened? You can give me everything. I'm not going to push you tell. I'll tell everything except for names, names and locations and what about gender? Think? Yeah, girl, girl, she's a girl. Yes, she's a girl. So we have two girls and one boy and the family by yes, old this is a boy and two younger girls. Okay, um, and I feel for your father having all girls. Another side note, Yes, yeah, he can talk about all the girl things all day long. I'm sure. Yes. Um. So the way it all started was so it was Christmas time, and it's the third kids, so things a little bit different. And it's as far as the birth thing goes because the third time, so like you come at any point, which for any kid, but I don't know all the logittics behind it, but like, hey, your baby can come now. Because we kept having all these doctors appointments like oh, it looks like it's gonna be mid December, and then we go to appointment, they go, oh, not quite yet, it's gonna be in maybe another week. And then we go another appointment. Not quiet rat. It's like waiting for um, you know, like a repairman to come to the house. Oh, we're almost there. We're almost there, and it never shows up, and you're like, when the hell is the baby going to come? And then finally we have this our final appointment, and it was like I think December twenty eighth, and we go and she's like, oh, looks like it's almost here. And I was like, well, you know, what is it. She's like, well, you're not really quite a centimeter dilated. She was, but I'm going to scrape the membrane. Which it's a lot of information, but they basically go up in there and they moved some things around they kind of help get it out. It's almost like a light induction. It's a full induction or like inducing is when they will give you like potosa and a couple other things that kind of like push the baby out. So it's like a kind of like a the appetizer to extracting a baby. Okay, so it's a weird or like or like the first attempt of trying to get it to come out. So they did that and then she's like she she was, we have another appointment for you. I think it was like two days later, the thirtieth or thirty. First she's but I have a feeling we're not going to see you. Then we may see you sooner or no. My day all messed up. But it was like we went in, we went in one, We went in one day, and she's like, I may not see you at the next point, which is three days later. And then it was the very next day we saw her, and we saw it, but it was for labor. So she did this whole scraping thing. And then that night at eleven forty five pm, I hear her and the little of my sleep, she goes up. My water broke and I was like, I was like, huh, water broke. Then she was to go back to bed. It's fine, and I was like, I was like, look back then, it's fine. It's final. Let's you know, if anything changes, and I was all right, so I went back to wait wait, wait. So it's not like the movies where it's like water broken, you have to go right away. All that's all crap. Yeah, that's I mean, maybe there's a version of it, but it's not like that. It's like whoa, it's like a gushing amount of water. It's like, we're gonna go now. Like labor is a very long intensive process, and the water breaking is different versions of it. So maybe somewhere it's like splash and then it's like, oh, we gotta go. But in a lot of the scenarios, water breaks, which means that I guess, like that whole sack thing happens and I don't want to grow shot, but that whole thing happens, and then that means the baby starting to then make its exit strategy. Got um. So it means I mean it could be an hour, it could be two hours, but it's all based on contractions. And I think the rule is five one one. So if you have a contraction for lasting five minutes for every hour or something like that, where basically if the contractions are closer together, which I can't feel, she feels and she can tell me, and she has an app and she tracks that. She okay, here's contraction one, and then she'll time it and if it's within a certain window and it happens a certain frequency, then it's time. Okay, now it's time to go to the hospital. And then now you're in a window of labor time, and labor time can be thirty minutes to twelve hours two days. So how long after her water breaking did you guys go to wait to go to the hospital. So broke eleven forty five pm and then she told me go back to bed, and then she woke me up around one thirty two am and she said, oh, it's really bad, like it's a lot of pain, a lot of pain. Okay, all right, what do you want to do? And I guess a little backstart before that, my mom wistus to fly in to watch my two current children that are here on this earth, who have to be watched by somebody. Yeah, because you can't take into the hospital. You can't, you know, you have to stay home. Yeah, they don't occur children to be there in the birthing room for all of those reasons. Yeah, I get it. I understand that. And so they're like, you know, so we have to have someone to come watch them, and we don't live here. We don't mean we live here. We don't have family that lives here. If we're not from here, we're transplants. And so we had to schedule that and figure out who's gonna be. That's who's gonna come up to watch our kids. And that was a whole another thing we were dealing with two months beforehand, so we weren't sure, like who's going to watch the kids? And then we're trying to figure out between my wife's side of the family or my side of the family, who's available and when you're in. And the most difficult thing is we don't know when the baby's coming, like we're talking about it, you know, a moment ago. So I can't really give them an exact date. Like you plan, are you playing your trip for your birthday? You have a date you're gonna get there to day you're gonna come home. But this it's like, hey, you know it's gonna be in this window, and we can't buy your flights yet, and we don't know when it's gonna be, but can you tell your work that you're gonna have to leave the drop of a hat like those kind of things. So it's a little difficult. So the best person for it was my mom to come up. But she has a thing where she's watching my grandmother, who is on her own, So then you have to get somebody to come in and watch my grandmother while she comes in and watches our kids. So that was the logistics we had to deal with. So my uncle had to come down to watch, you know, his mom, which is my mom's mom, and then she would come up to us. But they also telling him like, also, I don't know when it's gonna be. Could be on Christmas. I know you got your whole thing going on. It could be it could be on New Year's I don't know when it's gonna be. YadA yadah. So then that was our choice, was my mom. It was the one that worked, and then we did all that logistics. So we booked her flight to come out early before we thought was a date was gonna be January six, Well, let's have her come out a week in advance and you know, be here. And then we got news that it could be closer to New Year's like, oh, let's let's get her in after Christmas so my uncle can do his thing, and then let's have her fly in the twenty sixth. Well that's when Southwest had that whole thing, all the cancel flights and all this crap. And I saw it because the next morning, I'm like, are you're coming in? And then I looked like that morning at like two am, and I'm like, oh no, yeah. I was like, already are we stressed about having this someone come? Have someone come watch our kids for a baby that could come in any moment. Now we don't have anyone to watch our kids, and maybe they can come in any moment. We don't know when she can get here, because they were saying delays, we're gonna go all way up until the end of the week, and I'm like, holy crap. I was like, so we're already We've been stressed this whole time, for like the last three months about all of this, and then the moment finally comes. We thought we'd have it all buttoned up and then it flips on us again and we're like, what the's going on right now? It was so stressful. And then the moment we were able to book a flight, then I booked a flight for December thirty. First, I'm like, okay, cool. I was like, just keep that damn thing in you. Whatever you gotta do, Like, don't do anything that you that you would do in the past to try to get it to come out. Do everything. And that's the opposite. I try to keep that damn thing in you because this is this is our only option to watch the kids. And then so then on that early morning it was basically the night of the thirtieth, eleven PM going into December thirty. First morning at two am, that's when she's like, oh my god, it's coming. Oh my god, it's coming. I can't hold it any longer. M's flight is eight hours away of a landing in Nashville, and I'm like, just eight more hours. Hold it in. I gotta pick her from the airport, like come on. Yeah. She's like, I put them in so much pain. I can't do anymore, and I feel guilty, and I'm like I'm like, all right, crap, here we go. I was like, who we gonna find to watch our kids at two in the freaking morning? Yeah, well I take you to the hospital. So then we start calling who used to be a nanny that used to watch our kids, who's like our sitter here and there when we need to do things like if we want to have a date night, or if we need them to go to doctors, depployments, whatever. We kept calling her, but she's twenty four. Oh yeah, she's either out or passed out at a it was a Friday night or something about, like, yeah, it was one of those things. Trying to call her over and over and over and over. She didn't answer a text or didn't answer and then we're like, oh, crap, wass Maybe we talked to our neighbors. They said that they would help out. Call them. They're not answering, they're not no one's responding, And I was I was like, let's try this. I was like, just for kicks, I was like, she's twenty four, I'm like FaceTime her. She's always facetiming people. Maybe the sound of the FaceTime ring will hit her in her drunken stupor to wake up versus her ring tone or the vibration whatever, And sure enough FaceTime she responded immediately, and I was like, oh yes, and we're like, hey, so um, this is having right now, and she's like, oh my gosh, I'll be there in like an hour. So then I'm like, okay, now you get a hold on another hour. Can you do this? So we start packing the bag, get every ready, keep not saying that the kids they're asleep, still, try to keep them relaxing, common they have no idea. And then so she comes in and boom, and we pack up my truck and drive out at three in the morning and head to the hospital. And then we get to the hospital and do that whole thing. And you get to at four in the morning and no one's really there, and it's New Year's Eve, so it's you know, it's I think it was a Saturday, was a news eve, so it's short staffed, it's a holiday, nobody's there. It's possibly a lot of the which we'll get to it a second, the second stringers, not the a team. Yeah, not saying it wasn't a team there, because there was, but you get a lot of that, you know, because it's the holiday, it's the weekend. It's that's how it is an in the industry. You got the people trying to make a name for themselves coming into work and I'm like, great, cool, and here we go, here we go. But it's my third kids, so I'm not too nervous, but I'm just nervous about all the circuit stances around it. Yeah. So we get to the hospitals four in the morning. They started doing all the check in, triage, you get to the room, all that kind of stuff. And then following Elce we get settled. She's fine, She's in labor, but it's not like a lot of pain. She's getting through it. And I'm really hungry. We haven't eaten anything since yesterday dinner. Like god, I'm so hungry. And I was like, she can't eat anything because they want to allow it based on you know, she's having she's having labor. You can't eat all you can have his jello and soup and water. Oh my gosh, I can't imagine. It's awful. So I'm I'm gonna go down to the You mind if I go down to the cafeteria and get something. I'm like, I'm really hungry. I'm willing to fight it with you, and I eat. She goes, no, you need to eat, because then you become an ass, become a jerk. Like I need you to be on your best behavior and be here for me and have the energy, So go get some food from me. I'm like, you're right, I need to be here a needy present. Need you have the energy. So let me get some food. Go downstairs with the cafeteria. And again it's Saturday, so it's not full staff. It's not fresh food. It's food from the night before, the breakfast from yesterday, which I found out in a very terrible way. Oh, go to get the food. I order it, and I could tell it's all crapped me yesterday because it's in like buckets over like a heated lamp. And I'm like, but I was so hungry and I was so tired, I wasn't making rational decisions. I almost got sushi, which should have been stupid too, because I would probably have been just as bad, if not worse. So I get my food to go back to the room and I eat it and eat the grits. I feel like it's fine, making okay, but I eat this like pork sausage and it was fine, but I felt like something was off. But then I'm just not thinking. So we're doing the whole labor thing and everything's all good, and then we get to a point where then she can't handle the pain anymore and she's like, I need an epidural. Like, all right, we'll get the lady in for an epidural. She comes in. Hey, my name's nurse Da Da Da Da. Won't let you know off the bat, I'm in nurse in training. This is my seventeen time doing it, seventeen time doing it, so I used to be a triage nurse, so I do have experience, but I want to you know, this is not I'm in training. And if you don't know what epidural is, which you may know, or oh yeah, yeah, it goes into your spine, which you don't want anybody in training doing that, okay, because if you if you go, if you're like a hair off, you'd be paralyzed. You could die, which she tells us, She's like, here's the symptoms, and I have to say this, Um, you could die or you could be paralyzed for life. Is that okay? And I'm just like, oh my God, it's a tradey. Well that's hard, Like that's her for a woman. I obviously have not been in that position, but to be told that and you're in the most pain you've probably been in your entire life. Yeah, and you're like, well, yeah, I want it. No, I don't want to die, you know, I don't want to be paralyzed. But it doesn't hend like I have a good option right now. I have a choice because you're here and it's a holiday and there's someone else coming. Yeah. So I was like, good God. So we're like okay, sure, and she's okay, Well, I have to wait for Tom to show up. And I was like, well, who's Tommy? Well, Tom's Tom is like the supervisor or whatever. Yeah, he's been doing for fifty years. And so we're waiting for Tom. And so Tom is, you know, probably strapped thin as well because it's the holidays and that kind of stuff. So we start playing music and because I always when we have when we do the birthing, I always have music because I feel like it's so awkward if it's silence in there. And one of the nurses was like, oh my god, you have great music. You're playing I love the playlist and the music. She goes. It's always so awkward. Well, I don't want to say it's awkward. I'm like, no, it's awkward. You come into a room where a woman's breathing heavily and there's a husband they're freaking out or or awkwardly just sitting there, and you need something to break the ice or make the room a little bit more fun. And I've always fel like music as the best way to do that. Okay, pro tip if you're gonna have a child, bring in a Bluetooth speaker and have not necessarily have music ready. If you want to have a playlist, it's fine. Or now there's baby music. Yeah, So I just play all the songs my wife likes, and I play albums that we like and whatever. She's Casey Musgraves, we played a little bit of that. We played, you know, justin Timberlakes, suit like all kinds of stuff, classic rock everything, and they were just loving it. And then Tom comes in and I'm so because I'm so nerved with stuff, I started playing David Bowie's song You may not know it, but it goes this is ground control to major tom um step in through the room and as right as he was walking in, I play that and he walked into it and he was like, okay, guys, all right. But I felt like that had dad jokes going. You had dad jokes on cue on cue with music like I was on it. It was a moment where I felt like, God, it was awesome. I'm proud of myself here for this. Yea um. But yeah, so that's a tangent on that. So he comes in and he comes in. He could give oh, he could care less. So he goes and sits on a couch behind me kind of like almost you're sitting there like ah, all right, you got it right, And she's ever there going like okay. She's like shaking and putting the needle in, and then they go to like put it in, do it, and he goes, now you want to go a little higher here, and like it was like they're working on a car, and it's just like if something happens, it happens, and then we'll just fix it. Like this is not a car, it's my wife, Like you told me, the last thing is she could die or be paralyzed. You're gonna pierce her spine? Please, don't ep this up, but I'm trying to. But I don't want to exude that energy or even say my wife so, and I don't want to. I don't want to make her nervous because I'm sure she deals with people because it's their seventeen time, so I'm sure sixteen times before that, especially number one, I was gonna say, could you imagine being when she walks in, She's like, this is my first time. I feel like, no, get the dot. I believe in what you're doing, but absolutely not, absolutely not, no chance in hell. And it's funny because fast forward and it's another slight tangent. Our chiropractor just had a baby, like two days before our baby. And he goes, yeah, we had this nurse that came in. She said that it was a trainee and dada for epidurro, and I told her to get out because it's our first kid. I'm like, oh my god, you probably had and they went to the same hospital. I'm like, you probably got our training. I was like, we were fine. The third kid. He goes again, not our first kid. I messed around with that, and I'm a chiropractor and I know about spines and he's getting the hell out or she's getting the hell out. So, yeah, she's doing this. I don't want to upset her. I don't want to freak her out, because if we freak her out, you put it under pressure, she will mess up. So I just wanted to keep her confident. I was like, what's your favorite song? And I played her favorite song. It's something to keep her happy and like cool and calm. A lot happening in this birth room round, yes, and I want her to just do it right. And then they go to do it, and I've seen it happen twice now the epidur also, I know it should look like they turned around there was freaking blood every Oh my god, I would have passed out. I would have been like, no, absolutely not. I could tell she did a terrible job and had to poke multiple times or whatever. And I was like, oh my god, what is happening right now? And my wife's like, she goes, is everything fine? But yeah, having's fine. It looks great because I don't want to her to freak out. You're like internally freaking out, but outside I need to be completely calm, keep my composure because if I'm not calm, then the energy of the room is not calm, and then they're gonna kill my wife and then I'm gonna be on my own with three kids. So f that. So I had to be as calm as possible and I was, and they did the epidural and that was all good, and everything is fine. But go into the birthing and then I would think I thought maybe it was maybe about three hours later, we start to get into like serious pushing time. And then our doctor comes in and she's the freaking absolute greatest ob g I N doctor, which she does more. I mean, she does birthing, but she's an OBI doctor, so she does it all. You know. Yeah, girls, you know I'm talking about yes, which I learned for the first time this this time around. I was in the waiting room and I was like, why are these older women here? Are they having babies? Like, what's going on here in my life? Goes No, it's a vagina doctor. She checks vaginas just not just burst. God, they don't just do birth. Yeah, she could checks them all. I would come here too. I would love to share. If I'm fact with you, my ob gyn, who I go see every time I'm home, is actually the same guy who gave who my mom gave birth with all four of our girls. Oh yeah, it's so cool. So I still go to him because he's so good. Yeah, very good apparently. Yeah that's that's a cool for him unless we really cool perspective wise, like I birthed you and I come and see you, yep, all down the line. I believe my sister, she's the only one in our family that's had kids besides my mom. Is she also gave her niece and my niece and nephew with him in the family doctor for you, Like, if I ever get right now, I'm gonna have to be at home to have birth with him. You have to go back home to do it, and our insurances crap. It's Blue Cross, Blue Shield of Illinois and we're in Tennessee, so we had to pay out of state fees because it's cheaper for the company. I want to getting all that crap so you can. Basically, my whole point is you can bet birth your child anywhere and it'll cost a crappola because we have crappy insurance. Lovely, So go to Kansas City and do it, or sorry, witch Tall, Kansas and have your baby there because it won't matter where you have it because they will be covered properly. True side note, um welcome. And then that was another thing that sound very exciting to have a child at scoop. But I'm not sure how I feel. No, it's cool, it's great, like no, like no, I'm not being so castlic like it three times now, so apparently I enjoy it. Every time I heard these breath things stories my friends just have it, I'm like, I really don't like the idea of all of this. Yes, sounds like a lot. Well, I mean, you could just have if you want to have a kid, you could have one to do a C section and it's like an operation. You're in and out, you're done. Recovery process is a pain in the ass, but it's much of an easier day of process. But so anyway, so we're gonna doing the birth and it's the third one and it maybe our last one. And I've seen them all. I've watched them. I've seen the whole process and it's so fascinating and I think it's so cool and I think it's so like I I look at women, I'm like, good god, you guys are so incredible that you're you have this superpower, you grow an effing human being in your body and then you push it out and then it grows up to become a huge an adult. Like that's something that guys can't do. And we and like we are a part of the process. Of course, we're a key piece, but we can't do the end result of making it like we started, but we can't finish it and we can't do it. And it's just like, it's so incredible. So the nurse who's helping out because it's now the part where the it's dilating, the centimeters are growing and the baby's heads starting to come out, and she's like, hey, do you want to do you want to see it? I have a mirror I can slide over for you to watch it. She goes. I would say ninety eight percent of women don't want to watch it, she goes, but there's that you know, two percent doesn't want to watch it. And she's like, I'm fine, And I was like, dude, babe, I was like, it's gonna be the last one. I was like, you should see it, and like like not, I'm totally serious. When you should don't see the whole birthing process. But at least look at what you're able to do, because when you're doing it and that part of the process, it's pushing. So you're in this stage where the contractions are closer, and every time there's a contraction to get the baby to come out, the woman has to like almost lift her head up. So my job is to hold her neck up because you have to hold the head because she's having to push, and the nurse has the legs up on stirrups and she's down there trying to help with the baby. And so my job is to help hold my wife's hand so she can squeeze it for support and for the pain release. And I have to hold her head up because she has to hold her head up for ten seconds ten Mississippi breathing while pushing. And I'm like, you should totally see it, Like it's really fascinating that you can do this, and if it's your last time doing it, you're not gonna watch videos on YouTube like see you push the baby like this is so cool. And she's like, you know what iff it slide that me run over and then and so she saw it, she's like wow, and as she's pushing. I can see her looking at it going like, holy crap, I'm doing this, and I was like, yes, And I feel it was more motivating and an experience for her that this is the last one she got to see her push it. She didn't do the she didn't see the whole process, but for a good you know, I would say twenty thirty pushes, which is probably like an hour. She saw her push the baby from where there was a little bit ahead to like almost the full head coming, and I was like, look, you can do it, Like this is so cool. Like I always remember this moment that this isn't something you're able to do and we can't. So whenever men put women down, say after you, dude, like you can't make a baby, you can't handle that crap. Yeah, so she said, so it's really cool. So she's able to see that. Doctor comes in the whole birthing thing and I cut the midcle cord. Welcome to the the planet Earth, here you are. And then the baby comes out. They clean it up to a certain degree, do the skin to skin time, and I start having this like massive headache and I'm like God, and I'm like, maybe it's because I haven't had a lot of water, and I haven't eaten since my cravvy breakfast at seven am. And now it's almost two pm. I'm like, man, I got a really bad headache. Oh then my mom got she flew in flight, came in. Everything's good. My wife's friend, I'm going to go pick her from the airport to help us out, and brought her to my house, which was nice, huge help. And but now I need to go back to the house babies out to get my mom because she was gonna come earlier. We're gonna show her the routines and show her all the stuff. You know. It's she doesn't she hasn't seen my kids like a year, so she didn't know what we do, bedtime routines, food, what do they eat? All those like little things you know, like a dog. You know, I have a dog. There's a routine things you do. You have to explain it to a dog sitter. Yep, so the same thing. Go to home. I have to go home and tell them I'm all about it. So we're so we um have the have the baby wait a little bit. My mom's all good. But my ham coming home and help you out, mostly with like routine for a nighttime, and um, I'll bring you some food for the kids and everything, and um we're doing this and I'm like, okay, all right, baby, you're good. Now it's like four o'clock, so yeah, you're good, You're good. My headache becomes even worse. It's super strong, and I start having that feeling, you know, the feeling of like throwing up or you feel something the back of your throat, and I'm like, am I gonna throw up? And I'm like no, I just have a headache. I just I just need water. So I started drinking a lot of water. Driving home, I'm about maybe ten minutes from the house and all of a sudden, I have this feeling. I'm like, oh my god, I'm gonna I'm gonna throw up. I was like, what the hell's wrong me. I get to a turn. I turn and I was like, I can't make it. I can't. I can't make it home. I was like, I can make a home and throw up. I'll be fine. And I was like I can make it home. And I was like, make a home. I'm breathing. I was like, oh no, I can't make it. I turn. It's a it's a red it's about to turn red on the red light. And I pull over into like the back of a Jiffy Lube and I and I throw up in my mouth before I get to the Jiffy Lube and I have to hold it up my mouth, pull in park and park as fast as I can. It's not like five thirty because it's kind of dark and it's behind like a restaurant, and they just start blowing chunks in the back of a Jiffy Lub parking lot. And it's New Year's Eve. Yeah, so people think I'm drunk. And I hear a guy going, oh, I'm like, no, no, no no, no, food poisoning. I had some crappy food, Like you really think i'd be driving right now. No, no, dude, I just came from the hospital of food boysoning. I feel terrible and the so then I'm worried that I'm gonna get pulled over for a DUI or something, and so I'm paranoid. I'm throwing up in the back of a parking lot and I'm like, holy crapping. And so I get home and then I get home and then I have to like I get home and you know how when you throw up, you just it and you probably feel like at this point, I've had no sleep, I've had an hour of sleep. But then foo food poisoning. But then I feel it's like such a woos. So my wife just pull push the human being out of her body and they can't really bitch complain to her about my food poisoning because she's a birth to human. But I want to complain. I want to feel bad, but I can't feel back because so it's like I don't mean crap, like this is nothing. So then I tell I tell my wife. I'm like, hey, I just threw up, and she's like, what the hell? And I explained the food. She's like, yeah, you weren't looking good. I could tell something's wrong with you. I'm like, yeah, that's what I'm janis. And she's like, just stay home for a couple of hours because now the baby's you know, out, get your mom set up, do your thing. And here I am at home, lang on the floor. Okay, mom, so what you do this? Sorry? Trying to breathe through telling and exactly, and then I throw up again, and then I go take a shower to clean up, and then it would end up being two hours or three hours. And then my wife is now texting me because she hasn't eaten anything since yesterday's dinner as well, and now she's hungry and she all she wants to sushi because she hasn't had sushi in nine months. And so I was like, but now it becomes like, it's okay, take your time to get down. I'm hungry, go pick up the food. I'm hungry, Go order something please. And it's Newars even downtown Nashville, and there's and so I have to then navigate back into downtown Nashville as they're doing all these road closures and there's traffic everywhere, and there's drunk people everywhere, and I'm like, oh my god, this is absolute mayhem. And so and then I'm also nervous because I'm not feeling well. I'm gonna get pulled over for and they're gonna think I'm drunk. And now because as New yar As even all it's crap, and I'm just like, all it's crap is going through my head. I'm like a continued amount of stress. But I can't show my cards because my wife went through a lot of crap so it's just like it was. Oh my god, it sounds like in the forty eight hours of this all happened. It was like everything bad and good that could happen possibly happened. Oh yeah it could. Then everything bad that happens, something even greater happened. So it's just what I'm saying, bad and good, but like makes it all in one. Normally it's just like forty eight hours of bad or forty eight hours good. You got bad and good in forty eight hours. My goodness, it was a whirlwind. But baby is here. Mom is healthy, baby is healthy. All is good. Yes, that's the most important thing, too, is yes, baby self, wife was healthy. Well. I love hearing all of that in the story of craziness. I'm sad that things went kind of wrong, but happy to hear everybody's good, Yes, thank you, and here feeling better. Why baby, you're doing great? Yeah, all good and healthy. Yeah. All the adjusting is happening now. Yeah, so that's where we're at now. Yeah, the acclimating to the new life with three children. Well, I cannot wait to keep hearing. It sounds like pure fun chaos. Yeah, it's fun for you because you're not loving it. Yep, I gonna go home and binge watch my movie. Yes, you can watch James Mom from top to bottom. Oh man, Well, we're gonna have more stories it at a different point in time, I'm sure. So we'll go ahead and get into this next one. Lunchbox is coming in at number four. He finally got his roof repaired. And you know, I bet he's pretty proud of himself, or at least his wife was very proud of him for doing this. So I want to talk about the last time you were genuinely proud of yourself for doing something not work related. Getting a minivan. Okay, it was inevitable with three kids. Yeah, we had a truck. It's a five seater, three car seats in the back. Wait, hell on, do you still have your trucks? So my truck. I think that was the That was the debate for a very long time. I was gonna say, I have not seen a minivan out and I still see the truck. Yes, yes, So it was a debate of well, we're gonna get a minivan, you have to get rid of a truck, yea, because of the financial side of it. And I was I'm not getting rid of truck. I've always wanted a truck, and I felt so hard to get that dang truck. And then so we for a long time of conversation and compromisations. I don't know i's a word, but who gives a crapm compromising and all that. We finally were like, look, babe, it's gonna be easier on you because I remember the other two kids, especially the infant. If we drive anywhere, the infant needs a lot of attention, and if we have a five seater with three car seats and her in the front, it's much harder for her to manage and deal with the infant. Other two are easier plussing. You got the one of them that may squeeze the arm or pull or hurt the infant unintentionally. So you're about to tell me that you can vince your wife to get rid of her car for a minivan. Yeah, so we got rid of her Prius, which that she's had since twenty eleven. It's like her baby, and it's in great condition. It's awesome, Cuba. You're telling me right now because this segment happened a few months ago where you told those she didn't want to quit her job, and now she also lost her car. But I got her a minivan. That's awesome. It's got leather seeds staying now like it's a proud thing. But I do not think she's gonna be happy about this. No, she's well now that we've now that we have it, and she understands the convenience of it and the and the benefits of having the minivan and all things that I pitched her, and it's coming to fruition and it's all great. Yeah, you keep talking yourself into that, suba. You're talking yourself into that. By the way, it's a proud moment that I got the minivan that we needed, and I wanted I feel for your wife right now because I heard all about this birthing story, the job and now the car. But she loves it. And then she was like, no, you know, you're right, it's time to get rid of the priests and let someone else enjoy her. I was like, you're right, you're right, it is your poor wife. I think I needed to go check on your wife, genuinely do. I'm a little concerned. It's happy, she's finding it's good, trust me. Oh my god. Yeah, Okay, you know what next time? You know how lunchbox brings audio of his wife, I need audio of yours. I need like proof of life happiness. Yeah, yeah, that's her right now. She's gotten rid of a lot of things. I'm feeling for her right now. What are you proud about it? Morgan? It was like, dang it, I got called out. Well nothing near a minivan situation. But I made hot chocolate and whipped cream from scratch, okay, and that was very exciting for him. Saw that on your Instagram? Yeah? Yes, made whipped cream from scratch. Yes, and the hot chocolate, both of which I have never done before in my life. So the hot chocolate, I'm not trying to downplay it. I don't seem like it's as impressive because you just it's like chocolate and like the milk. Well, no, okay, so let me tell you most of it. It's most Both two of these things are not hard. Okay. What cream to me seems like it'd be very difficult. No, okay, so let me tell you. The hot chocolate is cocoa. It's sugar, vanilla and milk okay, and chocolate chips. Okay. That's it. Five ingredients and you basically melt that all together. But I had just never I'd always just bought the packets convenience. Yeah, yeah, so I never knew that you could, Like essentially, I just never knew you can make this from catch until Yeah, recently I've been obsessed with hot chocolate and then whipped cream. The only three ingredients you need are heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla. So but then how do you make it to where it's like out of the candle? So heavy whipping creamy port in able, and you just keep whipping it, just keep going, keep adding sugar until it starts getting and it's a hot sugar, a whole lot of sugar and home my whipping cream. Okay, we just keep going until it keeps keeps whipping, and once it's starting to get that whipp texture, you had a little bit of vanilla, and keep whipping it a little bit more and there you have it, whipped cream. Literally heavy whipping cream turned whipped. That is so cool and I'm also just so envious of you to have the time to be able to do that. Yeah, I was like, I didn't buy it anymore, but I'll learn how to make a new thing, fuller opposite our life right now, completely opposite. Yeah, and that's why it's awesome. I love that for us, Yes, I love it. I love it more for you too, yes, yeah, oh yeah, but I was listen, I was really I get proud of myself anytime I can make something that I never only thought to make. Yes, it's the best time putting that. Yeah, because because it has been so convenient for you to just the powder and the marshmallows and move on. Yeah. Because my mom when this Homeway whipping room is like my mom's like our families Okay, yeah, she makes homemade I've seen and suf and every time she teaches me, she's like, Morgan, you sure remember this is like what we did before grocery stores had all of these different things. Correct, Yes, And so she teaches me these things and I get reminded that, you know, it's not that impressive, it's just actually what they used to do. Well, I'm really glad that both of us are proud of ourselves for things, even if they're very different. Yes, okay, we're just moving forward from its scuba. Yeah, I love that. That's what life is. Yeah, Yes, that's it. And at that number three spot speaking of kids and talking about Scuba Steven his life. Eddie and Amy also shared some kids stories recently of crazy things that have happened in their lives with their kids, and you guys love hearing kids stories. So this is definitely a big one up there. And I want to talk about I went to Atlanta this weekend. I saw that weekend. Yeah, never been to Atlanta before, Okay, cool, and it was a really cool experience. I didn't know what to expect. Okay, it's just a big city and I had the best time. It looks like you did. Yeah, yeah, just exploring the city. Ate a lot of good donuts and also crazy enough, President Biden was also there at the same time. I was, oh, wow, was it crazy because like crows off like blocked like blocks. Yes, and we saw it. We saw his like vehicle. Yes, that's what it's called. I was like, I don't know what it's called. I want to say procession, Like yeah, yes, all the different black dot SUVs and the long car and everything crazy motorcadd it like blocked so much traffic and thankfully we weren't dealing with traffic. We were like bopping around some Bars. Yeah, but it felt so weird to be there while president was there because it was m OK Day and huge for Atlanta. Yeah, and obviously that's where things happened with MLK, so that's why he was there. But it was just really cool. It felt really weird to be in the same place that the president was at the same time. Oh yeah, it's very weird because I lived in San Francisco and it would happen a lot when they traveled. I think that was when Brock Obama was president. I remember going to work one day and I was driving down We're I always driving and I couldn't. I was like, what the hell? Were always police cars are everywhere? It must be a murder or something. And I go over another block and I still can't go down that block. And I went over another block and I still like, what in the hell is happening? And then I went around another block and I finally got to go over and then I had to go all the way down like you had a major detour. And then you realize, oh, Barack Obama is at the OMNI and there they square. That whole thing. Isn't that crazy? Just and it makes the most sense because he's a world leader, right, he's a president of a whole country. But it's just crazy the security that comes around that. I felt like it was a movie I was seeing witness in real life. Yes, yeah, it didn't feel real, very surreal. Yes, it's indifferent than like when I went to Washington, DC, because like you see the White House and you're like, oh, that's cool, but it's I'm in a different city that I didn't plan on seeing that. Yes, seeing that and like being there where the president was. So aside from Atlanta being just an awesome city to visit, was there initial like Oh, I'm going there because I want to do this or I want to see this. No, So my two of my best friends moved there and I just went to go visit him. And I was like, I've never been to a end of before. So I packed up my dog and one of my girlfriends end up coming along, and we just went and went around. We went and saw a stone Mountain Park, which is literally this giant stone and they carved like a structure in it, which I don't know why they carved a structure in it never makes sense to me. Why would they ruin like a really cool like original stone that's massive, but they did you know, for humans? Yeah, yeah, but talk about conspiracy theory. I'm pretty sure this is the next area. Fifty one think inside that stone is definitely alien. There's a hidden door and there's one hundred percent aliens inside. There's like an elevator that goes like a thousand feet up. Things huge, and it doesn't make any sense. Yes, I don't think ever heard of it. It's called Stone Mountain Park and it's a state park, so it is like an official one, and I don't think people would travel there just to go to that. It was just like I wanted to just oh my god, what the hell it's huge? Whoa. I wanted to like see and experience something. I like going on hikes and seeing cool views, especially when my dog comes along. And so this is where we went. But I was just sitting there and I was like, I just don't understand. I did not understand what this place is. Probably not even a real stone. It's probably like Hollywood where it's like it's got a bunch of like things around it and like fabric fabric to make it look like it's it's a rock. No, it's entirely real. Wow. Okay, yeah, it's it's real, Like we looked up facts and stuff at it. But all I'm saying it is so large that this thing has to be empty inside and there's aliens in there. Oh yeah that's my conspiracy. Yeah, I'm with it. I'm all about it. I need it, I love it. I want more of it. Yeah, because it just like landed there, you know what I mean, Like, how did this like huge stone just be there? Yeah, and all of a sudden, you know what I mean, Like and it's a state park, it's protected. Yeah, exactly, there's something. There's something to it. But yeah, it was a funny like Detro was like we're gonna do this. Its like my friends that live there were like, okay, sure whatever, why not, We'll do it one time. That'll be it for them. Yes, And so we went and it was a funny experience. It wasn't like a state park where you go like, oh, so beautiful. It was like, oh that was weird. Yeah, that's what it was. You kind of have the also like weird vibes being there. You feel something, I get you. Yeah. Yeah. So and just the whole fact that we sculpted something and it also feels weird. I'm like, whyouldn't you just leave it as it was? Leave it yeah exactly, and just make it a park exactly. So. But besides that, yeah, it was awesome and we bopped around, went to some bars. I got a lull too drunk on a Saturday night. I gotta try some yummy donuts. I loved it up and filming because that's they say that that's like the filming mecca of our country, and you know, I didn't really. We went to a lot of holiday weekend That's why I never mind. I was going to say that's possible, because we went into a lot of different pockets and we didn't see it. We didn't even see like filming set up anywhere, either like sets or anything like that. I don't know. Holiday Hollywood, I love it. Whenever it's a holiday, they're like, take the whole week off, we're not doing anything. Hey, you know how I like that. That's awesome, awesome. Yeah, Hollywood has a great scott. I mean they have grueling schedules when they are working, yeah, but they got a lot of time off if it's a television show or it's whatever their productions. Thank you for adding jealousy to my list of things today. Because my friend David he is like an aspiring act or whatever and he does voiceover is he actually has some pretty good commercials that were in Super Bowls. Um. But he was back in oc He's from that Seal Beach which we're talking about earlier, which I love, and he was flying I think he was from Chicago to back home, one of the two. He lives in Chicago now. And he met, you know, Zachary Levi, the actor he was in Chozam or whatever. They were at a bar and he was just like sitting there and he looks over He's like, holy shit. And then he told me he's like they had a twenty minute conversation just about life and things, and then they got into like what you know, what you know? What do you guys do and whatever? And he's like told what he wants and he's like, do you have any advice? But I hate to bug your fast would just like like elevator pitch advice, like what thing I should do? He was like, if you're not Atlanta, you're wasting your time. Really, He's like, he's like, if you're wanting to do you know, television shows, especially if you have a want to do the world of like the CW, like like what he would do, like flash that kind of thing, or any kind of acting. He was if you're not in Atlanta, you're waiting. Now I'm listening. Okay, I'm going back to Atlanta. Now. Atlanta's got all the very very city, the city, but the outskirts of it as well. I mean, they do a lot of film in there. It's it's become what was supposed to be Orlando was the East Hollywood and that the funct that went away in the nineties. Atlanta has become the East Hollywood. And he goes, if you're not there, you waste your time, dude, because that's where you got to be for anything production, TV movies, voiceovers, all that Atlanta, Georgia. Okay, well, if you see me in Atlanta more weekends, you know why? Exactly me too. They're like, what are you doing here? You see it for sales side on my front yard. I'm going to Atlanta. We're just all lave. Yeah, it was. It's a really cool city. And I do suggest if you if you stop through there or anything, definitely check it out. Okay, cool, So I did. I did go there, but just more crazy that I got to experience in the city with the president. Yeah, that's very cool. It's very surreal, very and in the seat and not just to know about it, because I'm sure it was like on the news or topic of conversation or whatever, but you saw it. That's really cool. It was just a wild experience. Yeah, So all around a really cool weekend. And of course I got to bring my dog and you know, I love that. Okay, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah. And at the number two spot was Old Dominion. They stopped by and they performed one of their new songs, memory Lane. They also performed their first and last hit, you know Lasses and the latest it not their last ever, and they just talked about a lot of things in charit this is where we can start, no, and also that there's a joke that one of the guys made in this interview. It's one hundred percent age joke. There is no feud between them and another band. Just fyi social media. You know, we like to believe everything we hear. They love those headlines. Yes, yeah, so FYI that is true. But this is a really great interview. But more importantly, the performance is so awesome and you can check that out on YouTube at Bobby Bones Show. And then at the number one spot, we're gonna talk about being heroes because Eddie was a hero. He broke up a fight between kids. Oh yeah, and he doesn't think he's a hero, but everybody else thinks he's a hero. And I don't know, have you ever saved anyone? Have you ever been a hero? Trying to think about that. I mean, I've done the opposite of like, well, that's not something to be brought up. That is not what I asked think about. Oh my god, my life between like age thirteen to twenty four, a lot of crazy things. Well you know, I'll let you think. I haven't been a hero to humans. Okay, but I've been a hero to a lot of animals. Okay, yeah, I could speak on a too yet. Yes, I've saved a lot of animals. I've at least five or six docks from the side of the road a lot. I keep a leash and treats in my car in case I ever run into one. Okay, and cats those are harder to catch, though, Okay, I save a lot of turtles. I helped them cross the road. But I have a very traumatizing experience with the turtle. Okay, I've gotten out. I had pulled over. I saw the turtle and it was on kind of like this big street. It wasn't like a highway, but a big street crossing multiple lanes. And I had pulled over and I as I got out and I was like walking toward it, another person drove by and I heard the whole crunch and everything happened. It was. It was the most traumatizing experience in my life. Seconds from saving it, I turned around and I just started bawling, and I was like, that is awful, and I literally cursed the car. I was like, you, I saw that from like a mile away. How could you? It was a huge turtle, like it wasn't like a small one. It must have done it on purpose too. I saw a union, let's get it. Oh my god. So traumatizing. So but still I have saved a lot of turtles, dogs and cats. Yes. So yeah, so your ratio like you have a higher wind column versus a lost column. Yeah, but that one's pretty bad. Now. I'm really scared to get out for turtles because I have I have trauma of that happening. Yeah, oh my goodness, I've never seen it happen like that in person. I've saved a lot. I've had some where where I was like, oh I should I should say that, and one time I turned around and it was unsavable at that time. I've never had it happened right in front of my face. Oh my goodness, to be awful. Yeah. And my mom watched somebody hit a dog and she helped get the dog to the emergency vet because it was still alive and it was okay if somebody's pet and it ended up being okay, and she helped save it. That's awesome. Yeah, but like screw the person who hit him exactly, Like, come on, you not that paying it. I mean people are not paying this and drive anymore, which works the hell out of not listen, I swear it out of the way for squirrels. Like yeah, I'm that person. Yeah, I mean I'm the kind of person in my home, I see a spider and I take a cup and I will put over it, slid a piece of paper underneath it, put the cup over and then throw it outside like they were here before us. Oh my god. Yeah, and they didn't do anything wrong. He's in my house, it's probably oh my god, what am I doing here? I want to get out? And did you squash it? Yeah? I'm trying to get better about that because spiders is another one of my fears. Okay, and I don't like killing them. Yeah, but I get very afraid. It's like a fear based like hit instead of like and then I'm like instant regret, yes, reaction. Yeah, but if I can, even though the suckers move really fast, yes, to do If I can't, I try and save it. Yes, you should definitely try to save it, especially if it could be pregnant. You don't know it's pregnant, babies come out. Yes, my dad did that before in the garage. It went everywhere. My dad was like, I've never seen anything so awful in my life. Well, no, I'm not seeing it. You just killed a mother and all the babies. I don't have a mother now. Yeah, but like he didn't know, like you know what I mean, don't Yeah, yeah, but like, oh my gosh, so very scary, very scary, Okay, because those are mine and I don't have those sparked anything for you for me? Hero wise, God, I wish i'd I saved a dog, like, not saved it from like anything, but I saved it. Um, so I guess I'll tell I'll tell you, and you tell me if it's a heroic thing. But no, I don't think it's like heroic like wearing a cape that kind of thing. But so, when I was living in la I was by myself for the first six months, and I was lonely, and I was like, I need like I missed my dogs already. I had two dogs that were up in the bay with my was who my fiance at the time, my wife, And I was like, I'm just She's like, well, she's like, well, just maybe go to the shelter and look around. And I'm like, you can't take me to the shelter and look around exactly. Yeah, I will play with all of them. And I end up taking all of them my talk car and take them home. And so we did one of those things. We went to the I went to the Sea Maine Society, which she came down to visit and saw a dog there and I was like, and just immediately the song was playing in the Arms of an Angel and she was in the back of the crate and she was like, and there's like not looking anyone. And then I kind of got near it and she did one of those things where I peeked over and looked at me, and then we just had instant connection. And she slowly walked up and the guy came around the corner and he's like whoa, and I was like what. He goes, that dog doesn't That dog's awful. That dog doesn't want anything to do with anyone. It stays in the corner. It's like petrified, it's mean everything. He's like, I can't believe you got it to come to you is what you do? And like, I didn't do that. I just walked up, walked by the cage, and this is what happened. He goes, what do you want to Petter? And I was like yeah. I was like yeah, Petter, and he goes, well, this is Miriam, and I was like, Miriam. They always have the weirdest names. Miriam. That's why no one likes this dog. He's Miriam. They gave it a name for a dog that should never And it was like, okay, whatever. So I start petting in and it starts licking my hand. It's a little shaking you know, because it's still whatever. I was like, what's the dog story? He goes, well, he goes. So the original family had her and they had kids, and she was a little hyper and was jumps a lot, and I was like, okay, well that's what dogs do. Sounds like a dog, a dog with They don't get a dog if you don't want dogs that jump. And so they jumped a lot. It was a little hyperson Then they brought it to us, and another family adopted it, and then the same kind of thing, and then the third family adopted it, and then it was aggressive. I'm like, well, yeah's aggresive because every time it's around humans, it probably falls in love and then it gets disowned. So probably just mentally is effed up in the head and perspective. I get why she's that way. Yeah, she did turned three times. So I adopted her, brought her back to my apartment in Hollywood, and it was just me and I renamed her my own name her freaking Miriam. So I named her Birdie bird dash e like bird e and a rapper, So I named a Birdie, gave her a mohawk. She was my bitch, she was my everything. She was with me everywhere. I didn't say that no drugatory age, you know. I called her that. She was my bitch. This is the thing. It's a female dog, that's technically what it is, but that's what she was. She was might be, So I brought her around everywhere. She's my everything. She was great. So I feel like I saved her because I took her out of that that place, and I had her for a while until I had kids, and then she became aggressive towards my first son, like she nipped them once. And I knew she was a little bit aggressive because she was also aggressive towards my other dogs. Once I guess, long story short, my wife came back down, we got married, We all together in a house. Yeah, I had solidified gig in La so we were there. We were long standing citizens of Los Angeles, so that everything came together, dog seam together. The new dogs had a meet, or the old dogs had meet my new dog. They were kind of okay with her firstand offish, but everything was fine. But then when I had a kid, then maybe all those kids from the previous ones, trauma came back up again and she started becoming aggressive and I was like, oh, she's aggressive. I was like, that makes sense though, and then I was just kind of kept or separated from my son and feel all the things to make sure that they were separated. And then she lunged at him once and I was like, Birtie, like no, and she immediately kind of like how you swashed a spider, you swashed it and meedily go oh. She would do that where she would lunge and I'm like Birdie and she'd go, oh crap, sorry, like you're not the bad people. Those other people were bad, You're good. I shouldn't do this because he was he was like kid, he was trying to like pet it whatever a little aggressive, and she got pissed and lunge at him. And then she went to lunge at him the second time a few months later, and she got him in the face, like really close his eyes and cut him and he was bleeding, and I was like pissed, and I was like, oh my god, I'm like I don't want to kill her, because I was so angry that I was like because she went after him, and I was like, oh my god, I could see myself picking up and throwing her against the wall. Just in the fit of anger, of like coming after my son. Just naturally I'd be like, what the hell and pick up and throw her, not saying I should do that, but I just I had this and it urged to be like, oh my god, you just bit my son. And I was like, I can't do this to her because I love her so much, and if she does it again, I don't I don't know if I can control myself. I was like. So I was like, we had to get rid of her. I was like, but I can't get rid of her because this has been her whole life story. So so, so one day we're at my we were up in San Francisco and I always brought her with me when we'd go up there to visit her family, wife's family, and it was my son's one year birthday. All these people over Birdie's there, and my gay best friend is over there, things Pacy, and he's with his man, and they were like talking about, oh, we're thinking about getting a dog to try it out to see if we want to adopt a kid. And I was like, perfect, and I was like, and I was jokingly, my wife and I were almost like a used car salesman dog right here is perfect. She's wonderful. She's great for a one family household. You have no other pets, you are You both work opposite schedules. Because she's very needing and very attention she would like push her. I love her so much. It's so sad because she would push herself into you. So sweet, so loving, but has that little thing wrong with her. And I'll say, you guys are great though. You work mornings and he's home in the morning. He works nights, you're home at night. Like, this is the best scenario. I was like, we're gonna be here for a week, take her for a trial period. Take her home to Sacramento. You lived by an hour outside. Take her to Sacramento. You have a yard, because we didn't have a yard in La. We had a town home. I was like, you give everything she needs, you need. She needs attention, she needs a yard, and she needs no kids. And you're not having kids anytime soon. And if you adopt they were talking about adopting an older kid, you're the best house for her. Try her out, and if you don't like her, we'll take her back. We'll deal with it. Day one, they both fell in love with her. He goes well, a doctor will take her. She was so happy, and I watched her on Instagram. Now and she goes to Reno, she stays at resort, she goes a ski resort, she gets pappa chetos, she gets hair cut, she gets pedicured, because all leastly she gets pampered. She's living her absolute best life. So she's living a great life with me, but now an even more elevated life with him. So I look at as like, I guess if you could be the judge of this, I feel like I was a hero and I saved her because she could have been in that whole cycle again of that, which is which I felt like, could have been her repeating story of that. It could have ended much worse. I felt like, I do you're you're a piece of her story. I do think there's a hero excited there. Yes, thank you for justifying that. Thank you so much. I appreciated. This is a go one and it's a great story for us to end on. Thank you. Thank you for joining me and hanging out with me, sharing stories.
