- 0:28Speaker 1: American Radio group chat. I mean we got we got
- 0:31Speaker 1: multiple group chats here, and you guys are in all
- 0:33Speaker 1: of them. And I think y'all are cool, So.
- 0:35Speaker 3: There's no way those are the cool group chats. Those
- 0:39Speaker 3: are necessary necessary. I was watching this real and it's
- 0:42Speaker 3: about you, don't you know that funny comedians Italian Sebastian
- 0:47Speaker 3: Yeah whatever. He was talking to another guy podcaster and
- 0:50Speaker 3: they're talking about group chats and how much they hate
- 0:53Speaker 3: them and getting out of the group chat. And it
- 0:55Speaker 3: made me think of our family. So we have a
- 0:59Speaker 3: group chat. We have like a family group chat, and
- 1:02Speaker 3: we do not abuse that because our children will leave
- 1:07Speaker 3: and roast us. Plus it creates a lot of drama,
- 1:11Speaker 3: So you don't abuse that. If there's a vacation and
- 1:13Speaker 3: you're letting them know some specifics. If there's a few
- 1:16Speaker 3: little things you want to say, it's good for that.
- 1:19Speaker 3: We had another family group chat and it was with
- 1:21Speaker 3: another family member that had a baby, and it was
- 1:23Speaker 3: just it was a lot of posting and sharing. We
- 1:26Speaker 3: as women, we love it. Yes, we have no problem looking.
- 1:31Speaker 3: But men it's information for them. So our husbands were
- 1:35Speaker 3: leaving the group chat, and you know how the bottom
- 1:38Speaker 3: it says Mike Burlison has left the conversation. Yes, it
- 1:42Speaker 3: created some drama and I you know, and you want
- 1:47Speaker 3: to like say, no, he loves you so much. He
- 1:50Speaker 3: just he's at work. He doesn't like to constantly get
- 1:53Speaker 3: notified ding ding, you know. So so we decided. So
- 1:58Speaker 3: I was watching this, I was laughing so hard thinking
- 2:00Speaker 3: about our own family thing, and I thought, it's you
- 2:03Speaker 3: use it within reason, Okay, it's not to be abused.
- 2:07Speaker 3: We don't. This has worked for us, so we're always
- 2:09Speaker 3: you know, there's no hard feelings. There's only a few
- 2:11Speaker 3: of us, you know, but big group chats where it's
- 2:14Speaker 3: a huge group of people.
- 2:15Speaker 4: Yeah, well, this is so interesting that we're talking about
- 2:18Speaker 4: this because I was at a wedding recently and there
- 2:20Speaker 4: was a girl talking about her job, and I was like,
- 2:22Speaker 4: how is it going. She said, well, it's great, but
- 2:24Speaker 4: there's oh my gosh, there's so much drama. And I said,
- 2:27Speaker 4: is it a bunch of women? She said, yes, it's
- 2:29Speaker 4: all women. I was like, gosh, and she said, so
- 2:33Speaker 4: this one got mad at this one. So there's this.
- 2:35Speaker 4: They have their full group chat. Well, then this one
- 2:39Speaker 4: started their own group chat that excluded this one and
- 2:42Speaker 4: started like like, girls are ruthless when it comes to.
- 2:45Speaker 2: This sort of thing.
- 2:46Speaker 4: And I said, how do you handle it? She goes,
- 2:48Speaker 4: I don't respond.
- 2:49Speaker 2: She said.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Then at work, I'm like talking to everybody equally like
- 2:52Speaker 4: this one that they they disregarded and this she said.
- 2:55Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't want to be in a group chat.
- 2:57Speaker 4: I don't want to be a part of this because
- 2:58Speaker 4: if it ever came out what was being said about
- 3:01Speaker 4: this one. I'm on that group chat, but I'm not
- 3:04Speaker 4: saying a word. And my husband current cli yeah, and Kevin,
- 3:11Speaker 4: Kevin does not like I mean, he barely likes our
- 3:13Speaker 4: own little family thread.
- 3:16Speaker 2: You know, he just doesn't.
- 3:17Speaker 4: He just doesn't do that very well because we'll send
- 3:18Speaker 4: you know, reels are sent and all of that, but
- 3:20Speaker 4: he will I will I'll be We were in a
- 3:24Speaker 4: group chat with family members and they were showing, you know,
- 3:27Speaker 4: baby pictures, and it was right after and that's one
- 3:30Speaker 4: of the things that Sebastian said, When do you get out?
- 3:33Speaker 4: When do you say, hey, guys, I love y'all, but
- 3:35Speaker 4: I'm just not a group chat person, So no offense,
- 3:38Speaker 4: which is probably the way you should do it. But no,
- 3:42Speaker 4: he waits till this precious picture is sent, and all
- 3:45Speaker 4: of a sudden, Kevinville has left the conversation. I'm side
- 3:49Speaker 4: texting him and going, what.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Are you doing? Why now? Why?
- 3:54Speaker 4: What? What?
- 3:55Speaker 2: You know what?
- 3:55Speaker 4: I like group chat?
- 3:56Speaker 2: But they just had a picture.
- 3:58Speaker 4: You didn't even heart it, you didn't even like it
- 3:59Speaker 4: for it's like instead a.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Picture of their baby, and you're like, no, I'm done.
- 4:04Speaker 2: That's too far.
- 4:04Speaker 4: I'm out the baby.
- 4:07Speaker 1: That's gotta go. I can't handle babies, especially yours.
- 4:10Speaker 4: You know what I mean, like, just say something if
- 4:12Speaker 4: you have to get out.
- 4:13Speaker 2: This is my advice.
- 4:14Speaker 4: Okay, I love y'all so much, but you know me,
- 4:18Speaker 4: I'm an ne or I gotta get out. It's not
- 4:20Speaker 4: my thing.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I don't know if yours called themselves yours.
- 4:24Speaker 3: So you feel like before you get out of the chat,
- 4:26Speaker 3: you have to announce listen, like, you have to let
- 4:29Speaker 3: it be known why you're stepping out, because it does
- 4:31Speaker 3: create trauma to just leave it.
- 4:34Speaker 1: Love you guys, I'm at work, yeah, it go.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Yes, like forever, like never ever put me in here again.
- 4:42Speaker 1: That you meant like, I'm forever at work, just me, no, exactly.
- 4:46Speaker 3: The worst thing is if you're in a group chat
- 4:49Speaker 3: and you start a side chat with somebody in the
- 4:51Speaker 3: group chat, and you mess up and you accidentally send
- 4:55Speaker 3: a screenshot or something back to the group chat. Ye oh,
- 4:59Speaker 3: that's a that's horrible.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's gonna be a hard friendship to men.
- 5:03Speaker 3: That's a horrible.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Side chats, Yeah, it would be not a great. It's
- 5:10Speaker 1: maybe slightly better idea than a side check, but that's
- 5:13Speaker 1: still yeah, yeah, side we're dealing with bad ideas.
- 5:17Speaker 4: This is the part of phones that kind of hinder
- 5:20Speaker 4: society because you could be in the same room, at
- 5:23Speaker 4: the same table at a dinner and have two people
- 5:25Speaker 4: talking to each other on their phone about somebody's across
- 5:27Speaker 4: from you. Yes, And I hate that because it's like,
- 5:31Speaker 4: before phones, you didn't have this kind of drama. And
- 5:34Speaker 4: I will say sadly it is women. Mostly men don't
- 5:38Speaker 4: do this kind of thing. They don't chat about each other.
- 5:40Speaker 4: I look at Bob over there with his fat thumbs,
- 5:44Speaker 4: a sour look at every pigot.
- 5:46Speaker 2: He's all bad at.
- 5:48Speaker 1: We can't type with our big fat thumb. If you
