  Hello and welcome to the Nicki Kristen In the podcast Podcast
• 0:13
  episode #4 Kristen has some big news for us.
• 0:18
  She will be undergoing surgery very soon because why not?
• 0:22
  So we're just going to jump right into.
• 0:23
  This. Yeah.
• 0:23
  So I have to have my gallbladder removed.
• 0:27
  Like, what the heck? Of course this happened while we
• 0:30
  were unemployed and like between insurances.
• 0:33
  Insurance expired yesterday. Yeah, so today's the day we're
• 0:36
  supposed to get our new insurance, but apparently that's
• 0:38
  not ready yet from the underwriting team.
• 0:41
  Good time. So I'm now currently without
• 0:42
  insurance at the moment. I'm waiting for that.
• 0:45
  They said it should be like a day or something, so that's not
• 0:46
  so bad. OK, Yeah, it shouldn't be a big
• 0:48
  deal. But what all happened is like,
• 0:50
  because we knew that our insurance was going to be
• 0:52
  ending, I got all my medical stuff done.
• 0:55
  Which is smart. I did not.
• 0:56
  I did not schedule any of those appointments.
• 0:58
  I think I feel like you had them all before, did you not?
• 0:59
  You set up as soon as we lost. Them no, I pretty much set
• 1:01
  everything up. Yeah.
• 1:02
  I was like I, I needed to get blood work done, but it needed
• 1:04
  to be done by like April 15th or something.
• 1:06
  So I was like, well let me get it done now.
• 1:08
  And my blood work came back like abnormal for this one particular
• 1:12
  thing. And so because of that, I had to
• 1:14
  have an ultrasound and I'm like OK, well let's schedule it
• 1:16
  quick. Let's schedule it quick because
• 1:17
  I got to, I got to get this insurance.
• 1:19
  Thing done that's. A good point, yeah.
• 1:20
  And that's when they were like, oh, you have gallstones?
• 1:22
  And I was like, isn't that supposed to be painful?
• 1:23
  And they're like, you're not feeling anything.
• 1:26
  Yeah, you have a weird pain thing.
• 1:28
  Like, yeah, I'm surprised that. I mean, I, I feel like you are
• 1:32
  feeling pain. You just don't know it because
• 1:33
  you've been in pain for so long for other things.
• 1:35
  Yeah, but maybe not. Maybe you're maybe you've just
• 1:38
  numb from there. I don't know.
• 1:39
  And so I called my doctor and had a video conference with her.
• 1:42
  And I was like, hey, I she's like, you're going to need
• 1:44
  surgery. And I was like, well, should I
• 1:46
  wait till I'm experiencing symptoms or should I just get it
• 1:49
  done now? She's like, how are you not
• 1:51
  experiencing symptoms? She's like, you have a very
• 1:53
  large gallstone. And I was like, well, I don't
• 1:56
  know what to tell you. Yeah.
• 1:57
  And she's like, any chance you're just in pain constantly?
• 1:59
  And I was like, I don't know, just schedule the darn I'm too.
• 2:03
  Stressed to be in pain. That's how I feel.
• 2:05
  I'm like, I don't know, I don't feel anything at this point.
• 2:07
  I'm running on the caffeine and good vibes at this point.
• 2:11
  The. Good news is this is not your
• 2:12
  first surgery. So you are pretty, pretty open
• 2:15
  and pretty versed, well versed in surgery.
• 2:17
  So you had the knee thing, which was like probably the biggest
• 2:19
  one. Was that your first one?
• 2:21
  No, I mean, I've had surgeries before I've.
• 2:23
  Had because you had like a bunch of ear stuff.
• 2:25
  Yeah, right. Thing, it's like I've had my
• 2:26
  tonsils out, like I've had my wisdom teeth out.
• 2:29
  Those all required surgeries, yeah.
• 2:31
  And then yes, my knee thing was the big surgery, my knee
• 2:34
  surgery. And then after that I had AC
• 2:37
  section, which is considered a surgery as well.
• 2:39
  I was there for that one. And then yes, and now I'm going
• 2:41
  to have gallbladder surgery. You had the thing in your
• 2:43
  shoulder too. That's right.
• 2:45
  I had that was an outpatient. So it's so is gallbladder.
• 2:47
  Apparently it's like a very quick and easy thing.
• 2:49
  I'm in and out. It's just like a local, a local
• 2:53
  surgeon or internal surgeon that's going to do it.
• 2:55
  So I don't have to like see a specialist or anything.
• 2:57
  Well, that's good. But yeah, it's the recovery
• 2:59
  because I'm currently the only one working and so I need to
• 3:02
  make sure that I'm still seeing my clients and that I'm working.
• 3:06
  Yeah, which I mean you could do alltel out.
• 3:08
  So that's. Good.
• 3:09
  True, I just. Need to be mentally in a good
• 3:11
  place where I don't feel like I'm on pain medication, stuff
• 3:15
  like that. What do you think?
• 3:16
  I know, I'm like, I don't know man, we all have problems.
• 3:20
  Why don't you just take a pill? No, I know.
• 3:22
  So I I'm hoping to get it like on a Wednesday and because
• 3:26
  that's my day off technically and then move my clients maybe
• 3:29
  to the weekend or something. I don't know.
• 3:31
  We have to. Figure out I don't want to jinx
• 3:32
  it or anything, but like I have had no surgeries I well, I, I
• 3:36
  mean technically I got my wisdom teeth taken out yeah I count.
• 3:39
  I don't know if I. Count that was no, because that
• 3:41
  was yeah, that was done like in house.
• 3:42
  I'm going. To knock on wood, but like,
• 3:44
  yeah, I haven't. I don't know, Like, it's scary
• 3:47
  to me because like, I've never done it before.
• 3:49
  And like the fact that I would be unconscious and someone would
• 3:53
  be working on me would be scary, but like you're so used to.
• 3:56
  This. I'm so used to it.
• 3:57
  I know that's a weird thing to say.
• 3:58
  Like I'm so used to it. Like I don't feel like the fear
• 4:02
  of it. Yeah, I'm like terrified for
• 4:05
  surgery. Like I even for little stuff.
• 4:08
  Give me that sweet anesthesia, but.
• 4:10
  I mean that's what it is like I guess they they give you stuff
• 4:12
  that makes it go away. Anyway, because I'm.
• 4:14
  Feeling anything like they had to give me a Xanax for my teeth.
• 4:17
  Yeah. Because I was like, this is this
• 4:19
  is like freaky. My gosh.
• 4:21
  And then, well, and then like I had to sit up because I have a
• 4:24
  fat neck. Yeah, like I had to like, sit.
• 4:25
  You were. Going to choke yourself with
• 4:27
  your own neck if you if you laid down.
• 4:29
  Which I thought was because I was fat, which I think it is.
• 4:32
  I'm kind of fat. But I it also the reason why I
• 4:34
  snore. Yeah.
• 4:35
  And so I think I just have a a narrow neck hole.
• 4:38
  You don't have a narrow neck hole, you have a thick.
• 4:40
  I have a thick, Yeah, I have a thick neck.
• 4:42
  So like, but I got this mouth guard.
• 4:44
  Yeah. And that kind of keeps my throat
• 4:46
  open while I sleep. And it's supposed to stop me
• 4:48
  from snoring. Did it work?
• 4:49
  No, it doesn't stop you from it's the.
• 4:51
  Well, hold on. I you're still gonna wear it
• 4:53
  every night? Well, yeah, it's less.
• 4:56
  It's not as. Aggressive.
• 4:57
  It's not of aggressive like it used to be a buzz saw and now
• 5:00
  it's just kind of like a normal kind of regular.
• 5:03
  OK, so it helped a little bit because there's.
• 5:04
  Sometimes I've woken you up and I've been like, hey, put in your
• 5:07
  mouth guard and you're like itching and I'm like, oh, OK.
• 5:13
  That's just how normal people snore.
• 5:20
  What did I say? Oh, I can't.
• 5:21
  Do it again. Caught me.
• 5:26
  I'm go over that. Yeah, All right.
• 5:28
  Well, good. I'm glad I invested the $70.
• 5:30
  Yes, you're still wearing it every night.
• 5:35
  All right, so now I'm going to talk bowling.
• 5:36
  So we I went to this big tournament last weekend where
• 5:40
  like I was in Reno and we had the ball on this sport pattern
• 5:43
  and everything like that. But we're not going to talk
• 5:45
  about that. Well, we'll talk about that
• 5:46
  briefly. I did fine.
• 5:48
  It's much better than expected. Yeah, I was supposed to average
• 5:51
  according to my average. My my sport average is 170.
• 5:55
  This is what I average. I got a 200, which is kind of
• 5:58
  the one thing I wanted to do while I was there.
• 6:00
  Yeah, I was like, if I can bowl a 200, I will have known that I
• 6:03
  tried like my best. And then there was this other
• 6:05
  event called like the 4040 frame game, which I killed like I was,
• 6:10
  I was on fire on that game. So I'm excited to see the
• 6:13
  results of that. But this is some more along the
• 6:15
  lines of I have a USBC account, which is like the United States
• 6:20
  Bowling Congress or something. I don't know.
• 6:22
  It's the official bowling thing, OK.
• 6:25
  And on there it keeps records of everything that you've done ever
• 6:28
  in bowling. So like I have records on there
• 6:31
  from when I was bowling back in the 2, early 2000s before I
• 6:34
  quit. And then I have new records on
• 6:36
  there now. And it has like your name and
• 6:38
  everything like that. So I wanted to see what my
• 6:40
  average was. And I also went and looked up
• 6:44
  all the other NICs. What was my last name?
• 6:46
  Well, that's a weird thing to do.
• 6:48
  What a wild thing to do. Well, I wanted to see who's the
• 6:51
  best Nick. Oh my God.
• 6:53
  So I got me thinking like do you ever Google yourself and see if
• 6:56
  you won like the name game? You know what I mean?
• 7:00
  Like cuz you're telling me you've never googled like
• 7:02
  Kristen? Flower.
• 7:02
  No, we I've. Got 1 Googled this.
• 7:04
  Kristen is so much better than like or this.
• 7:06
  Kristen's really losing their life.
• 7:08
  Yeah, I did that in bowling and I'm the second best.
• 7:11
  I'm the second best. The second best, Nick?
• 7:13
  Yeah, there's no way. I'm the second best Nick with my
• 7:16
  last. Name.
• 7:16
  Oh, OK, alright. Well, that's great.
• 7:19
  I know like but the other ones like way I'm like.
• 7:23
  I have googled Kristen Flowers and I haven't found anything
• 7:26
  super noteworthy. OK, so you're the only one that
• 7:28
  kind of pops up. Yeah.
• 7:30
  I mean, like I there's other Kristen Flowers is that pop up?
• 7:33
  But they're like real estate agents or things like that.
• 7:36
  So I mean, I don't know how you determine how you won.
• 7:39
  Well, mine was based on an average, Yeah, yeah.
• 7:41
  So like, I don't know how. Well, I mean, you look at their
• 7:42
  lives and you look at their houses and you stalk them a
• 7:44
  little bit. Well, no, I didn't know.
• 7:46
  That you go let's see well, they have a bigger.
• 7:47
  House normally because I'm like, is anything bad pop up about me?
• 7:50
  And then I'm like, oh, there's another Kristen Flowers, but I
• 7:52
  didn't, like click on it. And a part of me wants to follow
• 7:55
  every single Kristen Flowers. Yeah, I want to add them as
• 7:58
  friends so that when when I like all of their posts, yeah, it
• 8:02
  will look like they liked their posts and.
• 8:04
  Kristen Flowers. Like the pathetic Yeah, I'm.
• 8:07
  Just All right, well, there. So for bowling, I'm winning.
• 8:10
  I'm kind of winning. I'm second best, yeah.
• 8:11
  But I'm going to keep practicing so that I can be the best nick
• 8:14
  there is out there and. Be your best you, don't compare
• 8:17
  yourself to other Nicks. You should Google yourselves and
• 8:20
  see who's winning. What a weird thing to do.
• 8:23
  We had a request for hold my beer to come back.
• 8:25
  I put that in to make like a song on our song making
• 8:29
  software. Apparently the phrase hold my
• 8:31
  beer is copy written. Did not.
• 8:33
  Know that are we not allowed? Is it by us?
• 8:35
  No, we didn't file the. Big work for that.
• 8:36
  So it's a good thing we're not running on the radio anymore.
• 8:39
  So I can't do the whole thing. But I have this thing, so I have
• 8:42
  a new hold my beer. I don't know if you saw if
• 8:48
  you're watching this, you saw that, but you didn't hear
• 8:49
  anything. But I'm gonna show you a video
• 8:51
  and instead of having to explain the story, there's a whole thing
• 8:55
  that we can watch. So it is right right here.
• 9:00
  You're not in the you weren't in the driver's side.
• 9:02
  You think I'm that stupid? Sure, ma'am.
• 9:04
  Can you tell us start your video and tell us your name, please?
• 9:08
  Well, you got to start your video right all.
• 9:12
  Right, let's. See.
• 9:13
  Let's start with that. I just entered the default
• 9:16
  judgement. Is there as me?
• 9:18
  You cannot be driving, ma'am. What are you doing?
• 9:21
  Come on. I'm not driving, I'm a passenger
• 9:24
  in a car. You're still not.
• 9:26
  I'm not hearing cases. With Do you believe her?
• 9:29
  No, no. Come on, what makes you think
• 9:31
  that she's lying? Because of the seat belt and the
• 9:33
  window placement. OK.
• 9:35
  People driving or as passengers in cars?
• 9:38
  OK. I will pull over right?
• 9:39
  Door of us coming out to everybody's house and doing
• 9:42
  these on boats and stuff in the summer, I don't know.
• 9:45
  I'm sorry, I have an emergency. I'm going out of town for a
• 9:48
  family member, but I will have my driver pull over.
• 9:51
  Hang on one second. I'm sorry.
• 9:53
  I don't know that I wasn't. Allowed to be in a car but hang
• 9:55
  on one second. Am I crazy or does it not look
• 10:00
  like you're driving that car? I'm not driving.
• 10:04
  The car. I'm a passenger in the car, Sir.
• 10:08
  What side of the car are you on? I'm on the left hand side.
• 10:13
  How would you be on the left hand side if you're a passenger
• 10:15
  in the front seat? Am I missing something?
• 10:18
  Left hand, right hand side. I'm sorry, I've been sitting in
• 10:21
  a room I didn't know. Yeah, the seat belt's coming off
• 10:24
  of the of the driver's side. They're trying to.
• 10:30
  Actually, now you're lying to me, right?
• 10:32
  No, I got. Sir.
• 10:33
  Oh, don't lie again. Let me see the driver.
• 10:38
  Let me see the. Driver Oh, that.
• 10:40
  Look at that face. Let me see the drive.
• 10:43
  Hang on one second. I have to ask their.
• 10:46
  I have to ask their permission. Now.
• 10:48
  Doubling down. Quick thinking what are you
• 10:53
  doing? You're not going to pretend to
• 10:56
  be the driver. Well, you're not in the you
• 10:57
  weren't in the driver's side. Do you think I'm that stupid?
• 11:01
  Unreal. So that is Kim.
• 11:04
  She did later admit that she was lying to the judge, which she
• 11:07
  didn't really have to. No she really statement said I
• 11:10
  take responsibility appearing on a zoom court hearing while I was
• 11:12
  driving with poor judgement. I regret that decision.
• 11:15
  I panicked at the moment and made the wrong call instead of
• 11:17
  pulling over and asking to reschedule.
• 11:19
  I am truly sorry. I am human, I made a mistake.
• 11:21
  Oh my gosh, I understand. But like, my goodness, like why
• 11:28
  lie three times? It's so obvious the window
• 11:33
  placement. There is no window here when
• 11:35
  you're a passenger. Like there's no seat belt that
• 11:38
  comes down like that. My first reaction was like, Oh
• 11:41
  well, on Zoom it's reversed. Stop it because.
• 11:44
  Like. Sometimes you're way out of
• 11:46
  this. Sometimes when you film like it,
• 11:47
  it reverses the, the film or the video or whatever.
• 11:50
  So I would have my first instinct would have been like,
• 11:52
  oh, sorry, it's reversed, you know, zoom.
• 11:54
  It's weird, like. As you're like clearly steering,
• 11:58
  her arms are in front of her and like slightly moving.
• 12:01
  So. Wow.
• 12:03
  Remember not to light, don't say hold my very light of the judge.
• 12:06
  That's basically what I'm trying to say, but thank you for
• 12:09
  listening to the podcast. Episode 4.
• 12:10
  The Nick and Chris in the podcast will continue on Spotify
• 12:12
  and YouTube. I'm trying to get it on Apple so
• 12:14
  that it's easier for a lot of people.
• 12:15
  I know that most people listen on the Apple podcast app, so I'm
• 12:19
  trying to get it there. But I think you have to be
• 12:20
  approved for that. And we're on only four episodes.
• 12:23
  So we're we're working on it. Look.
• 12:24
  It's a work in progress, all right, I.
• 12:26
  Have since our last episode. I've had two people say that
• 12:28
  they were willing to sponsor our show by the.
• 12:31
  Way wild. So I'm just going to shout them
• 12:33
  out so the bank. Hold on a second.
• 12:35
  Are they willing to spend money? Yeah, we.
• 12:37
  Are unemployed. I just want.
• 12:37
  To show them I'm going. To show them because this time
• 12:42
  we can charge how much, how much we can charge.
• 12:43
  So if just one shout out on this one podcast for the Clark County
• 12:49
  trash Pandas. They're a basketball team, a
• 12:52
  professional basketball team that are coming to Clark County.
• 12:55
  I was supposed to DJ for them during their home games and
• 12:58
  still can I still can it's just not till March.
• 13:00
  They were supposed to start this year, but they ended up pushing
• 13:02
  it back to next year. The guy that bought the the the
• 13:05
  team likes the show and listens to the podcast.
• 13:08
  So Brandon, if you're hearing this, shout out to the Clark
• 13:12
  County Trash Pandas and go like them on Facebook.
• 13:14
  They're adorable. I'm going to start, I'm going to

• 13:20
  podcast that you're listening to.
• 13:21
  Go and like them and say that Nick and Kristen sent me and
• 13:24
  we'll see if we can charge more than I was planning on.
• 13:26
  And then go ahead and list in the YouTube comments of this
• 13:30
  video how much we should start charging for sponsorships.
• 13:32
  I like that. Too.
• 13:33
  Yeah. All right.
• 13:33
  Well, thanks for listening.
