The Kyle & Jackie O ShowDuring last calls one of our listeners hit a soft spot in Kyle's heart. Feelings of regret and guilt flowed back to Kyle after chatting about his father. Have a listen to hear what went down.
What did you ring the chat about, by the way, anything important?
Yeah, so I actually did it. It's actually a bit personal. This question will probably be best do it for you, Kyle. I've heard you handing out your invitations a little earlier on. Yes, I'm in a bit of an invite predicament myself. So basically I'll give you a quick rundown my parents' divorce. While when I was a lot younger and now my dad wasn't really in the picture. He sort of lived his own life, went off and did his own thing in spite of my mom. So you know, she raised us by herself. Within the last year she he sort of come back into the picture. Now I'm getting married a month after you, Kyle, and I'm just wondering, should I sort of let my guard down and just forget about everything he'd done and invite him.
Or is he Is he back in your life or back in your mum's life.
No, he's back in my life now. So pretty much he went and lived, he partied, He lived a single life. No jealous as I'm you know, as I'm yeah, obviously gotten a little bit old. I'm getting married.
You worry here though, Michael is you worry offending your mother because it feels to me like you may you want to open the door to your dad, but you don't want to disrespect everything that your mother went through. The drama, the loneliness, you know, it was all on her. I think you asked her, would you be on h That's a good idea because I'd hate for you to not feel wonderful on the.
Wedding so important because your mum's been the one there for you. So that's what I definitely ask her and see what she says.
And so yeah, I have asked mom, and she she's been all right with it. It's more the fact of knowing what she actually went through. It's more me just sort of trying to accept that, because.
Bro, this is what Michael, Michael, this woul happened with me, Like I took my mom's side and I tortured my dad for years, and like I was homeless for a while. So there was a lot of other weird shit, not just the mum shit. But when he came back around, I made it as difficult as possible. I actually got off on how sad he was and how much you tried to make good. I actually enjoyed watching him suffer because I felt that, you know, he needed to suffer. And then when he got cancer, when he got cancer and died, I regretted not being more open to him. Sorry, sorry, sorry, it's not about me. It's a week of cold crying. I regretted it. I regretted it, and I thought, what a waste, what a waste of time that was. Now he's gone, you can't speak, you can't say anything. So you made it him.
You You really did make amends though.
But I just I regretted and my brother regretted it, and we both still to this day. I think only three days ago, my brother and I had a quick chat and we just once again, we're like, how bloody, how much? What idiots we were? What a waste of time, you know, and we could have had that with him. So if your mum's okay, I'd say you give it a go, because like, you get married once, well in Jackie's case.
That yeah, I think, yeah, you only get married once, and I'm ready.
Yeah, sorry, I've got myself. I'm a man again.
Now.
I'm sorry I was a man. The a b C.
If they keep hearing me cry everything, But it's such a such an invaluable lesson from someone who has lost their father now to know how much that hurts Kyle and hearing it in his voice, and so that should tell you everything. Michael learned from someone who's been through it and know that you may regret it later on.
Brought up because I knew, Yeah, me and Kyle situation was so close and yeah just even yeah, hear him cry, It's like, yeah.
You never get you never get over. You keep torturing yourself, like you just continue to punish yourself and you regret your actions.

So we'll make good luck and I hope you have a wonderful wedding. Yeah, thank you very much, No worries, thanks Michael. The big front.
I don't say that it's okay to cry, like it's okay last.
Time I cried, and through such a You know, I've got such stress going on because I'm looking at the newspaper articles about Idol, right, and you read one and it says the Idols know good because Kyle's too soft, he's lost his touch, he's too nice. And then the next article is like, how dare say this is the second time you've mentioned this. Whoever, I want to be yourself. It's never please when you what people think. Since I've had babies, do that too, a whole different things. Yeah, guys, if you can just drop it down the plug, hold do it because this is a whole new I love my life, but crying too much.
