Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: It's not about the money money.
- 0:05Speaker 2: I fully think we need to take this on air
- 0:09Speaker 2: because yesterday after the show, we were sitting in your office, Gabe,
- 0:13Speaker 2: and you were looking at a truck cover, like a
- 0:18Speaker 2: cover for the bed of your truck. Yes, and you
- 0:21Speaker 2: are giving me all like the specs on it. I
- 0:23Speaker 2: watched a video is about it? Yes, of course, until
- 0:29Speaker 2: you told me how much it costs the price tag
- 0:32Speaker 2: on this thing. And even Meghan, who does mid Days
- 0:36Speaker 2: on Big ninety eight point seven, and she heard and
- 0:40Speaker 2: was like, wait a minute, what when I tell you
- 0:43Speaker 2: Gabe has lost his mind. He wants to spend twelve
- 0:49Speaker 2: one hundred dollars for a cover for the bed of
- 0:53Speaker 2: his truck. And the best part is the man already
- 0:57Speaker 2: has a cover, so it's not like you don't even
- 1:01Speaker 2: have the thing. You have it. You just want this
- 1:04Speaker 2: new and improved version. And I get that, but twelve
- 1:08Speaker 2: hundred dollars, sir. And Gabe is sitting there telling me like, yeah,
- 1:12Speaker 2: but I can find like a coupon code for it.
- 1:15Speaker 2: There's still a labor day coupon that's active. And it's like, uh, hello,
- 1:19Speaker 2: what about your literal wife? Who what are you saying
- 1:23Speaker 2: to me, would your wife be okay with this? And
- 1:25Speaker 2: Gabe did not. I have an answer for that.
- 1:29Speaker 3: I could get this thing, install it on the back
- 1:32Speaker 3: of the truck, hashtag truck community, and I don't think
- 1:36Speaker 3: she would notice.
- 1:37Speaker 2: She would notice twelve hundred dollars out of your bank account.
- 1:40Speaker 2: I think she'd notice.
- 1:41Speaker 3: That game not my spending money. I'm not gonna use
- 1:44Speaker 3: our spending money. I'll use my spending money.
- 1:47Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I feel like that is a
- 1:49Speaker 2: big purchase to make without consulting your partner. What is
- 1:54Speaker 2: the biggest purchase you have made behind your partner's back
- 1:57Speaker 2: or that your partner made behind your back? One? Oh, sorry,
- 2:02Speaker 2: one nine eight seven. I want to know, because Gabe,
- 2:04Speaker 2: one time, I want you know what. I will start
- 2:07Speaker 2: it with this. I'm not married to this man anymore,
- 2:10Speaker 2: but once upon a time, when I was married to
- 2:13Speaker 2: the father of my children, I got a phone call
- 2:15Speaker 2: while I was out at brunch with my girlfriends and
- 2:18Speaker 2: he said, just so you know, when you come home,
- 2:20Speaker 2: there's a new TV in the living room. It was
- 2:23Speaker 2: eight hundred dollars and I'm not returning it. What what
- 2:30Speaker 2: that's a lot of money. I mean, he's lucky that
- 2:33Speaker 2: I was at brunch and fully like three mimosas in
- 2:37Speaker 2: because I think my reaction would have been a lot worse. Sure,
- 2:40Speaker 2: but then I got home and like, how would I
- 2:42Speaker 2: return a seventy inch TV? So I guess I just
- 2:46Speaker 2: lived with that, but I was not happy, and I
- 2:48Speaker 2: just feel like, Gabe, don't buy this truck bed cover.
- 2:52Speaker 3: Yeah, biggest behind the back purchase you've ever made or
- 2:56Speaker 3: willing to admit to? Or what is the number before
- 3:01Speaker 3: you do the old significant other check in?
- 3:04Speaker 1: Like are you four hundred bucks? You're fine?
- 3:08Speaker 3: Five hundred is when you got to ask the hobby
- 3:10Speaker 3: or the wifey.
- 3:11Speaker 1: And I'm not saying ask, but you're just doing a
- 3:14Speaker 1: little check in.
- 3:15Speaker 3: You're the old check in, like, hey, can I blow
- 3:18Speaker 3: five hundred dollars?
- 3:19Speaker 2: Mine is three hundred and fifty dollars. That's a great number, Yeah,
- 3:23Speaker 2: because I literally just did that.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Oh it makes sense why that is the number? Yeah.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Now, if you just tuned in. Angie and I were
- 3:35Speaker 3: talking about six or seven minutes ago, you know, what's
- 3:37Speaker 3: a big giant purchase you have made behind your partner's back?
- 3:42Speaker 1: Now I haven't done it.
- 3:43Speaker 3: I was talking to Angie what I thought was inconfidence
- 3:46Speaker 3: in my office, and.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Here she brought it to the air.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Good news.
- 3:52Speaker 3: There's this truck thing that I want that's like twelve
- 3:54Speaker 3: hundred bucks. Yeah, And I was telling Angie I could
- 3:57Speaker 3: get it, put it in and put it on the
- 3:59Speaker 3: truck or whatever.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Corey would never know. I don't think she'd have a clue.
- 4:03Speaker 2: I like it.
- 4:04Speaker 1: I got good news and bad news.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Okay.
- 4:06Speaker 3: The good news is I found almost the exact same
- 4:08Speaker 3: thing for only about eight hundred and fifty dollars, So
- 4:11Speaker 3: I'm saving.
- 4:12Speaker 1: A couple bucks.
- 4:13Speaker 3: Oh gosh, that's the good news. The bad news is
- 4:16Speaker 3: Corey's listening this morning and she said, no, you cannot
- 4:18Speaker 3: get the truck cover. So thanks for nothing, Angie. And
- 4:25Speaker 3: we like starting to show off on a positive note
- 4:27Speaker 3: every day, and we are gonna do that again with
- 4:28Speaker 3: some little victories. If you have a little victory, by
- 4:31Speaker 3: the way, don't forget to tell it to us. That's
- 4:33Speaker 3: seven oh one two eight zero one nine eight seven.
- 4:36Speaker 3: And if if you don't want to text it, maybe
- 4:38Speaker 3: you want to send us a voice memo. We've discovered
- 4:41Speaker 3: over like the last month and a half that you
- 4:42Speaker 3: can do that. That's pretty cool.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Yeah, or you can also just like call us and
- 4:46Speaker 2: we can talk to you.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Yeah, you can.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Yeah, people sound like when they're uh, they want their
- 4:55Speaker 3: crush to call them in like middle school.
- 4:57Speaker 1: You can always call me and we can talk.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Yeah, that is how.
- 5:02Speaker 1: What's your little victory, Angie?
- 5:04Speaker 2: So today I got into work and I realized that
- 5:07Speaker 2: I forgot my phone.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Your panic stricken.
- 5:11Speaker 2: I mean not so much. I'm not. I'm not screen addicted,
- 5:15Speaker 2: Gabe wink, No, but I do. I actually use my
- 5:18Speaker 2: phone for work a lot, and so I just felt
- 5:22Speaker 2: very naked without it, and very thankfully Mikey, my sweetheart,
- 5:26Speaker 2: who drops me off at work every day. He's so nice.
- 5:28Speaker 2: He wakes up with me. He had already like driven
- 5:31Speaker 2: back home. He's already like driven back home, and I
- 5:35Speaker 2: was calling my cell phone from my office phone, which
- 5:39Speaker 2: I never use, and then he realized, oh, that's not
- 5:41Speaker 2: my phone, that's Angie's phone. And then he texted you, GiB.
- 5:46Speaker 3: I was a part of this issue, yeah, and said.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Like, tell Angie she forgot her phone. I'm going to
- 5:51Speaker 2: bring it back to her. So he drove all the
- 5:52Speaker 2: way back to bring me my phone. And that was
- 5:54Speaker 2: very sweet. So thank you Mikey, I love you. I
- 5:56Speaker 2: know you're listening, probably on the podcast later because he
- 5:59Speaker 2: listens to the.
- 6:03Speaker 1: That is nice he gets up with you.
- 6:04Speaker 3: If Corey had to get up when I got up,
- 6:06Speaker 3: there is zero and I'd almost say negative chance I
- 6:11Speaker 3: would wake up at that time if I didn't have to.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Yeah, not in and of itself is pretty sweet. Yeah,
- 6:17Speaker 2: it's very sweet. What's your little victory game?
- 6:20Speaker 3: My little victory Yesterday, right around a little after lunch,
- 6:26Speaker 3: Corey at her work is allowed to like kind of
- 6:28Speaker 3: go for a walk in the middle of the afternoon,
- 6:30Speaker 3: you know, without like cloking out or whatever on exactly
- 6:32Speaker 3: know how it works, but either way, So ween Noa
- 6:35Speaker 3: and I went and visited her and went on a
- 6:37Speaker 3: walk with her in the middle.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Of the day yesterday, which was sweet. Yeah, it was
- 6:41Speaker 1: very nice.
- 6:41Speaker 3: So you know, that just might kind of be part
- 6:43Speaker 3: of the routine or whatever where no one gets to
- 6:46Speaker 3: go see ma in the middle of the day, right
- 6:48Speaker 3: around lunchtime. So it's kind of nice just walking around
- 6:50Speaker 3: with her yesterday in the middle of the afternoon.
- 6:52Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Ah, We're in love.
- 6:56Speaker 1: The Corneus show him far Ago.
- 7:04Speaker 2: I feel like adults at sporting events either it brings
- 7:09Speaker 2: out the best in them or the absolute worst. Some
- 7:13Speaker 2: of the worst grown up behavior I've ever seen has
- 7:17Speaker 2: happened at a sporting event. And we just saw that
- 7:21Speaker 2: viral thing with that ceo who stole a hat from
- 7:25Speaker 2: a kid at the tennis match. The tennis player was
- 7:28Speaker 2: trying to give the kid the hat and then he
- 7:31Speaker 2: just snatched it from the kid. Now I love that
- 7:33Speaker 2: it ended happy in that the tennis player found the
- 7:38Speaker 2: little kid once the story went viral, and then gave
- 7:40Speaker 2: him like a new hat and some more merch and
- 7:42Speaker 2: they hung out and it was a good thing. But
- 7:44Speaker 2: that CEO like, how dare you? And that guy doubled down.
- 7:48Speaker 2: He was like, well, you have to take what you want,
- 7:51Speaker 2: and so I took it like ill gross. But I
- 7:54Speaker 2: feel like the some of the worst behavior I've ever
- 7:57Speaker 2: seen in grown ups has been ever at sporting events.
- 8:01Speaker 2: Have you witnessed something like that? Oh?
- 8:04Speaker 3: Yeah, So I used to be an umpire for softball, right,
- 8:08Speaker 3: and I mean like little kids softball. I'm talking oh okay,
- 8:11Speaker 3: third through sixth grade girls and then seven to high
- 8:13Speaker 3: school girls, just a slow pitch summer softball league again
- 8:17Speaker 3: and only one time, thankfully, only one time in the
- 8:21Speaker 3: ten years or whatever that I did that, maybe not
- 8:23Speaker 3: ten five years, and I did that. I did have
- 8:25Speaker 3: to throw one coach out of a game. Once you
- 8:27Speaker 3: throw them out, yeah, I had to ask them to leave.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 8:30Speaker 3: So most of the coaches, and I'm bragging here, but
- 8:32Speaker 3: most of the coaches liked when I did the games
- 8:35Speaker 3: because I hustled whether I got the call right or wrong.
- 8:38Speaker 3: At the very least, I would at least run out
- 8:40Speaker 3: to try to see it. A lot of times you'd
- 8:41Speaker 3: have umsu would just sit behind the plate and not.
- 8:44Speaker 1: You know, put a ton of effort in.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Okay, so at the very least they couldn't yell at
- 8:48Speaker 3: me for not trying or not trying to get close
- 8:51Speaker 3: to the player or whatever. So most of the time
- 8:52Speaker 3: I got along with just about everybody. But I did
- 8:55Speaker 3: have to chuck out this lady out of a game
- 8:57Speaker 3: because her team was losing twenty six to zero.
- 9:00Speaker 2: And of course that was my fault.
- 9:02Speaker 3: You know, not the eighteen errors they had in the
- 9:04Speaker 3: second right, but it was my fault that they were
- 9:07Speaker 3: down twenty six zero, So I'd ask her to leave.
- 9:09Speaker 3: I also played in have you ever been to like
- 9:12Speaker 3: a Beer League? Softball game.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Yes, my ex played up.
- 9:16Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and I love playing, you know, on
- 9:19Speaker 3: Thursday night softball with the boys and Sundays or whatever.
- 9:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:22Speaker 3: I tell you what, though, you run into some of
- 9:25Speaker 3: the worst I mean worst thirty five to forty five
- 9:30Speaker 3: thirty year old men on the history of Earth. They
- 9:33Speaker 3: think they're going to play for the Minnesota Twins tomorrow.
- 9:36Speaker 3: They really do think they are going to the league.
- 9:39Speaker 3: They're screaming at Umson other it's just so stupid.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Oh, it's incredible.
- 9:45Speaker 3: You are literally I'm watching you between innings, go drink
- 9:49Speaker 3: a beer and then go bat.
- 9:51Speaker 1: What this sport is not that serious?
- 9:53Speaker 3: Okay, you could eat chicken wings in the dugout and
- 9:57Speaker 3: still play this game.
- 9:58Speaker 2: That's what I've seen.
- 10:00Speaker 1: Incredible.
- 10:01Speaker 2: I feel like people get just way entirely too worked up,
- 10:05Speaker 2: and for what reason. I feel like, Oh, when I
- 10:07Speaker 2: first moved here, there was a big hullabaloo that I
- 10:11Speaker 2: saw on the news about like parents getting all worked
- 10:15Speaker 2: up at a hockey game.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and parents fighting in hockey.
- 10:18Speaker 3: It's a whole different animal, too, right, And I get
- 10:21Speaker 3: it thrown down a hockey.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Games and it's like, no, that's supposed to stay on
- 10:25Speaker 2: the ice, isn't it? What is the worst grown up
- 10:28Speaker 2: people behavior you have seen at a sporting event? Seven
- 10:31Speaker 2: oh one to two, eight oh one to nine eight seven.
- 10:33Speaker 2: I think we just all need to take a deep breath.
- 10:35Speaker 1: That's right.
- 10:36Speaker 3: And you know the worst part is most people, most parents,
- 10:40Speaker 3: most adults, most whatever, are pretty cool, like laid back
- 10:43Speaker 3: and just enjoying whatever day game they're at or participating in.
- 10:47Speaker 3: It's always the one or two that are the loudest
- 10:51Speaker 3: that everyone hears and everyone sees and kind of ruin
- 10:54Speaker 3: it for everyone else.
- 10:55Speaker 2: I think it's one of those things where if you
- 10:57Speaker 2: have it in you to kind of be the worst,
- 11:00Speaker 2: what will bring it out is a sporting event.
- 11:03Speaker 1: That's right.
- 11:03Speaker 3: And I do want to give that CEO a tiny
- 11:05Speaker 3: bit of credit, not a ton, because I think we
- 11:08Speaker 3: saw who he really was in that moment and he
- 11:10Speaker 3: just kind of got caught. He did come out and
- 11:12Speaker 3: apologize and reflect and say, hey, that was insane.
- 11:14Speaker 2: I don't know what I was thinking he did.
- 11:16Speaker 3: He did come out and say here the double down,
- 11:18Speaker 3: and it's after the.
- 11:19Speaker 2: Whole planet was like, oh, like you're a scumbay.
- 11:23Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, So at the very least he did apologize
- 11:27Speaker 3: for getting caught.
- 11:33Speaker 1: There is someone in this studio who may or may.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Not use a lot of millennial slang here on Big
- 11:39Speaker 3: ninety eight point seven, Angie, why do you do that?
- 11:42Speaker 2: I can't help myself. It's the way I was raised.
- 11:45Speaker 2: But there's there. So, Okay, Mike and I we have
- 11:49Speaker 2: a twenty two year age gap, and for the most part,
- 11:52Speaker 2: I don't ever really feel it, like I think we're
- 11:55Speaker 2: very well suited. But then there are things that happen
- 11:59Speaker 2: where it's like, oh, yeah, we're from a different generation
- 12:02Speaker 2: with each other because he's technically gen X okay, and
- 12:08Speaker 2: I'm you know, millennial. And so he finally yesterday, and
- 12:12Speaker 2: this was funny to me because you used this word
- 12:15Speaker 2: literally just like five or six minutes ago. Yesterday, he
- 12:19Speaker 2: finally asked me to explain a slang term that you
- 12:24Speaker 2: and I use all the time. And he had been
- 12:28Speaker 2: too scared to ask, and he said, I'm sorry, I
- 12:33Speaker 2: hate that. I'm laughing. I hate when people do that.
- 12:35Speaker 2: But when I was talking to the kids and I
- 12:38Speaker 2: said that something was fire, I was like, oh my gosh, yeah,
- 12:41Speaker 2: I know that's fire. And he finally goes, that's what
- 12:46Speaker 2: is that? I was like what, and he asked, what
- 12:51Speaker 2: does fire mean?
- 12:52Speaker 1: You use it?
- 12:53Speaker 2: Gabe uses it? And then I'm thinking, because you guys
- 12:56Speaker 2: just went golfing together over the weekend, so if you
- 12:58Speaker 2: said fire, it's like, okay, what exactly is that true?
- 13:02Speaker 1: I let that rip a few times and he's.
- 13:05Speaker 2: Not a dumb person. I know that he has context clues.
- 13:08Speaker 2: He knew that it was something good. But he was like,
- 13:11Speaker 2: but what exactly when you say something is fire, what
- 13:14Speaker 2: do you mean?
- 13:15Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 13:15Speaker 2: And I was like, yeah, just that it's like so great,
- 13:18Speaker 2: Like it's so if something's fire, like it's.
- 13:21Speaker 3: Amazing, it means business for how dope it is. Yes,
- 13:24Speaker 3: that that also was some slang there. It means business
- 13:27Speaker 3: for how awesome it is.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Yeah, oh gosh, I've also used like I stood on
- 13:31Speaker 2: business and he's like what and I'm like, oh, this
- 13:35Speaker 2: is rough. But yeah, sometimes it's just hard. Is there
- 13:38Speaker 2: any slang that you do not know and you've been
- 13:42Speaker 2: too afraid to ask? We'll try and figure it out together.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Seven No One two eight oh one nine eight seven.
- 13:47Speaker 2: I did find out that there's a new like texting slang,
- 13:51Speaker 2: and so you know, when the millennial way is to
- 13:56Speaker 2: have a crying laughing emoji. Yeah, when something's really fun.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Then it changed to the skull emoji, like that you're dead,
- 14:04Speaker 2: Like it's it's so funny you died the new one,
- 14:07Speaker 2: and I've been using it because I'm trying to be cool.
- 14:10Speaker 2: I'm not a regular mom. I'm a cool mom. Is
- 14:12Speaker 2: the the wilting rose, so like the rose that's like
- 14:17Speaker 2: wilting and you know die?
- 14:19Speaker 1: I got it, Yeah, I got it. Yeah, I got
- 14:20Speaker 1: it that.
- 14:21Speaker 2: When something is so hilarious, like you just put that
- 14:25Speaker 2: like that means that you're dying.
- 14:26Speaker 3: So we're now using slang with emojis, isn't. Yeah, that's
- 14:30Speaker 3: how far we've gone.
- 14:30Speaker 2: I haven't used that yet with Mikey because he just
- 14:33Speaker 2: learned fire, so I can't. He can't do too much.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Just seven oh one to eight zero one eight seven,
- 14:41Speaker 3: Angie and I, I say, are would have a doctorate
- 14:44Speaker 3: in millennial slang?

- 16:26Speaker 2: the news came out to the family, and when they
- 16:29Speaker 2: asked if I already knew, I was honest and said yes,
- 16:33Speaker 2: but that it wasn't my place to share. I didn't
- 16:36Speaker 2: mention the pregnancy either, because again, not my story to tell.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Now my mom and my other sister are mad at
- 16:42Speaker 2: me for keeping it from them, and things feel really tense.
- 16:46Speaker 2: So here's my question. Am I the problem for keeping
- 16:49Speaker 2: my sister's secret or was I right to honor her
- 16:52Speaker 2: trust even if it hurt the rest of the family. Okay,
- 16:56Speaker 2: Mom and sister, let's chill out.
- 16:58Speaker 3: Okay, Well, what do you expect to snitch on her
- 17:00Speaker 3: sister right now?
- 17:02Speaker 1: Granted I would, I'm telling.
- 17:08Speaker 3: My older brother or younger sister. Yes, they have tormented
- 17:13Speaker 3: me for years. I can finally get back at them
- 17:16Speaker 3: with a big, heavy secret.
- 17:18Speaker 2: You best believe I'm taking that opportunity. Okay, Gabe, that's
- 17:22Speaker 2: actually very fitting for you. I understand that, I do
- 17:26Speaker 2: understand where you're coming from, but I think no, I
- 17:29Speaker 2: think your family, your mom and your the rest of
- 17:33Speaker 2: the family, whoever it is, is being ridiculous because it
- 17:38Speaker 2: is not your place to share that information. That was
- 17:41Speaker 2: being a good loyal sister. They recently reconnected, so I
- 17:44Speaker 2: think there probably was some drama there before. So imagine
- 17:47Speaker 2: you just reconnected and then you're gonna betray their trust immediately. No,
- 17:52Speaker 2: I will say, moms feel, and I am a mom,
- 17:56Speaker 2: moms feel very entitled to know everything about their and
- 18:01Speaker 2: I understand that when like the kids are younger, right,
- 18:05Speaker 2: because you have to like guide your kids and whatever.
- 18:07Speaker 2: And so for me, I always tell my kids, like, listen,
- 18:11Speaker 2: I understand you guys are brothers and you tell each
- 18:14Speaker 2: other things. But if there's ever anything where you feel
- 18:16Speaker 2: like your brother is in some sort of serious situation
- 18:20Speaker 2: or you know whatever, you have to tell me because
- 18:23Speaker 2: I'm your mom. But when you're an adult, you don't
- 18:27Speaker 2: have to tell me because that isn't you know, my
- 18:30Speaker 2: place or their place to snitch. I've been in this situation.
- 18:34Speaker 2: Several times where my mom thinks that my siblings have
- 18:36Speaker 2: should have ratted me out to her. Really yeah, And
- 18:40Speaker 2: then my siblings are always like, no, that's Angie's story
- 18:44Speaker 2: to tell, and she gets like really offended. Yeah, and
- 18:48Speaker 2: I get very annoyed. And so I identify very hard
- 18:52Speaker 2: with Adriana, because stop, you don't get to know everything
- 18:56Speaker 2: just because you feel like it. We're all adults now,
- 18:59Speaker 2: so we get to tell in our own time, whatever
- 19:01Speaker 2: our situations are.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Why wouldn't the mom just be mad at this, the
- 19:05Speaker 3: daughter who didn't tell her that she was pregnant and eloped?
- 19:08Speaker 3: Why are we I feel like we're skipping part of
- 19:11Speaker 3: our anger letder?
- 19:13Speaker 1: All right?
- 19:15Speaker 3: I think the top of the ladder should be the
- 19:17Speaker 3: kid who did it right. We're upset with the girl
- 19:20Speaker 3: who didn't tell you. I'm we're missing we're missing a
- 19:24Speaker 3: step here.
- 19:25Speaker 2: What do you think? Seven oh one two eight oh
- 19:27Speaker 2: one to nine eight seven. Should Adriana have snitched out
- 19:31Speaker 2: the big secret? Or was she right to keep it
- 19:34Speaker 2: to herself? Adriana wrote in wondering if she was the problem,
- 19:45Speaker 2: She reconnected with her sister recently, who told her a
- 19:48Speaker 2: big old secret, which was that she and her dude
- 19:51Speaker 2: eloped and that she's pregnant, and so Adriana kept the secret.
- 19:56Speaker 2: Now it's out in the open, and her mom and
- 19:59Speaker 2: the rest of her family are mad at Adriana because
- 20:02Speaker 2: when they asked if she already knew, she said yes,
- 20:06Speaker 2: and so they thought, how dare you? You should have
- 20:09Speaker 2: told us the secret? So is Adriana the problem for
- 20:13Speaker 2: keeping this secret for her sister?
- 20:16Speaker 3: It would have depended on how nice my brother or
- 20:18Speaker 3: sister was to I in that moment, whether I'd have
- 20:20Speaker 3: snitched or not. If they had been real buttholes, I
- 20:23Speaker 3: would have liked, but I would have snitched.
- 20:27Speaker 2: Yeah, I've that tracks. It happens on.
- 20:30Speaker 1: If they were being nice to me that month or not.
- 20:32Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, my sister and I we have always
- 20:35Speaker 2: kept secrets for each other, and then my mom finds
- 20:40Speaker 2: out and she always asks if the other one knew? Yeah,
- 20:45Speaker 2: And I always say no, I had no idea, and
- 20:47Speaker 2: my sister says, no, I had no idea.
- 20:50Speaker 3: That is one hundred percent the correct answer. We got
- 20:54Speaker 3: to give a big shout out to Ali. She actually
- 20:56Speaker 3: sent in the advice that I think, not advice, but
- 20:58Speaker 3: the answer that siblings would go with This is very
- 21:02Speaker 3: real and very true and something I've done a million times.
- 21:05Speaker 3: I would have lied about knowing the secret. But absolutely,
- 21:09Speaker 3: she's not the problem. True. We have to we need
- 21:12Speaker 3: to start respecting self preservation.
- 21:14Speaker 2: Okay that part.
- 21:16Speaker 3: I would say, out of one hundred times that you lie,
- 21:19Speaker 3: ninety eight percent of the time, it's probably not great.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Yeah, all right.
- 21:23Speaker 3: The truth will always set you free, except in a
- 21:28Speaker 3: scenario where mom or dad is gonna lay down the
- 21:31Speaker 3: hammer on you because your brother or sister did something dumb.
- 21:34Speaker 3: At that point, lie, that's the two percent where you
- 21:37Speaker 3: are allowed to lie to keep yourself safe.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Agree, Adriana, you were so right to keep the secret,
- 21:44Speaker 2: But girl, you gotta know when to lie.
- 21:51Speaker 3: Not stay or wide wedding Angie, you were recently in
- 21:55Speaker 3: a wedding. Yes, od, that's right. I will be in
- 21:58Speaker 3: a wedding coming up next weekend.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Are you groomsmen or best man?
- 22:02Speaker 1: Regular old groomsmen?
- 22:04Speaker 3: I'm like the one you really don't need you could
- 22:06Speaker 3: probably replace, Okay, Like realistically, you know I feel, I mean,
- 22:11Speaker 3: I do. This is a very good friend of mine,
- 22:12Speaker 3: but I'm kind of one of those like if Chelsea
- 22:15Speaker 3: his to be wife only wanted a couple bridesmaids.
- 22:19Speaker 1: I feel like I'm just there for like a numbers game.
- 22:21Speaker 3: You'll lift right out, all right, I'm very not necessary,
- 22:25Speaker 3: but still fun. Angie and I were talking about groomsmen
- 22:29Speaker 3: bridesmaid yesterday and we wanted to bring a little It
- 22:33Speaker 3: wasn't necessarily a debate, but a debate to big ninety
- 22:36Speaker 3: eight point seven.
- 22:37Speaker 1: We want to bring it to you which is harder.
- 22:42Speaker 3: Being a bridesmaid or a groomsman seven oh one two
- 22:47Speaker 3: eight zero one nine eight seven. And there are there
- 22:51Speaker 3: are two ways to go about thinking about this.
- 22:54Speaker 2: No, no, no, don't try to say we will plead our cases.
- 22:58Speaker 3: Being a bridesmaid is outlandishly more expensive, wildly more expensive.
- 23:04Speaker 2: Right, but that is about cost, Okay, cost aside, what
- 23:09Speaker 2: is the more difficult rule being a groomsman or a bridesmaid?
- 23:13Speaker 2: And we need you to settle the debate. Obviously, I
- 23:16Speaker 2: think I'm right and that being a bridesmaid is more difficult. Yeah,
- 23:22Speaker 2: and Gabe weirdly thinks he's right that being a groomsman
- 23:26Speaker 2: is more difficult. So we need you to settle the debate.
- 23:29Speaker 3: And for me, it's not necessarily based on what is
- 23:32Speaker 3: more difficult for me. It is I feel like being
- 23:35Speaker 3: a bridesmaid. While it can be a lot, at least
- 23:39Speaker 3: it's it seems kind of fun. You're getting together, You're
- 23:44Speaker 3: all doing your makeup together, your photos, your hair's professionally
- 23:49Speaker 3: done that day. You know that while you will not
- 23:52Speaker 3: be the star of the show, there is a good
- 23:54Speaker 3: chance you are one of the six best looking people
- 23:57Speaker 3: in this room.
- 23:58Speaker 2: Gabe.
- 23:58Speaker 1: No, you know what I mean.
- 24:00Speaker 2: It's not fun. That's a lie perpetuated by big bridesmaid like.
- 24:04Speaker 2: It's not for dudes.
- 24:06Speaker 3: We sort of just sit around all day and get
- 24:09Speaker 3: told to move chairs.
- 24:10Speaker 2: That's the dream.
- 24:11Speaker 1: Very fun, that's the dream. It's like an event.
- 24:14Speaker 2: You know, my gosh, that's what you don't get. We
- 24:16Speaker 2: make it seem like it's an event to trick ourselves
- 24:19Speaker 2: that we're having a good time. No, it's horrible, all
- 24:23Speaker 2: of us getting ready at the same time. In theory,
- 24:26Speaker 2: so cute. Let's have some champagne or whatever mosas, But
- 24:29Speaker 2: you can't drink of mimosa because then you start to
- 24:31Speaker 2: feel warm, and while you're getting ready, you're feeling warm,
- 24:34Speaker 2: and then you're trying to curl your hair, which has
- 24:36Speaker 2: a hot iron thing. By your face, and then you're
- 24:39Speaker 2: hot and you're sweating, and sweating is not good for
- 24:42Speaker 2: makeup application, or when you're trying to keep your edges
- 24:45Speaker 2: from curling, when you're doing your hair, it's it's not good,
- 24:48Speaker 2: it's not fun. So then you don't have the mimosas,
- 24:51Speaker 2: which means you're just sober and in a panic, trying
- 24:54Speaker 2: to make sure that you get everything. You're getting ready
- 24:56Speaker 2: in a place that's not your own bathroom, and so
- 25:00Speaker 2: it's like, wait, did I forget something? Who needs the
- 25:02Speaker 2: curling iron? I need to steam the dress. It's a nightmare.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Gabe and I love that we have put on quite
- 25:08Speaker 2: a show and made you think, oh my gosh, being
- 25:11Speaker 2: a bridesmaid, what a time. It is not a time,
- 25:14Speaker 2: but we do it because we love the bride.
- 25:17Speaker 3: That's right, all right? Seven oh one two eight zero
- 25:20Speaker 3: one nine eight seven?
- 25:22Speaker 2: Uh?
- 25:22Speaker 1: What is more fun or what is harder?
- 25:25Speaker 3: However, you want to narrow this debate down, let us
- 25:27Speaker 3: know this morning on Big ninety eight point seven, not
- 25:32Speaker 3: stay or a wide wedding.
- 25:35Speaker 2: The debate is what which is better to be? I
- 25:39Speaker 2: guess a groomsman or a bridesmaid. I was just a
- 25:42Speaker 2: bridesmaid in a wedding. Gabe is about to be a
- 25:44Speaker 2: groomsman in a wedding, And this isn't your first rodeo
- 25:48Speaker 2: as a groomsman, right, negative? And this is not that
- 25:52Speaker 2: wasn't my first rodeo as a bridesmaid. So I was
- 25:54Speaker 2: saying being a bridesmaid is absolutely worse. And Gabe thinks
- 25:58Speaker 2: that being a bridesmaid is better because it's like more fun.
- 26:01Speaker 2: What is the problem with being groomsman? What don't you
- 26:03Speaker 2: like about it?
- 26:04Speaker 3: It's not that I have a problem with it, but
- 26:07Speaker 3: really it's a lot of waiting around for things that
- 26:10Speaker 3: we don't care a ton about.
- 26:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I generally as like a guy. I don't.
- 26:15Speaker 3: I I'm sorry. I know the bride in the groom
- 26:17Speaker 3: can love them. That's great. I could not care less
- 26:20Speaker 3: about these wedding photos. I really don't. And you sin
- 26:23Speaker 3: around and you wait and you do nothing for twelve
- 26:26Speaker 3: hours before you take eighty photos, and then you stand
- 26:30Speaker 3: around and wait some more.
- 26:32Speaker 2: I think that that's way better because for us, it's
- 26:35Speaker 2: that we care too much about the photos, right, and
- 26:38Speaker 2: so we have to put so much work into looking
- 26:41Speaker 2: the best we can. The I was just a bridesmaid,
- 26:44Speaker 2: and for those photos they were outside in a botanical
- 26:48Speaker 2: garden and the heat it was so muggy. It was
- 26:50Speaker 2: an in Indiana. Yeah, and I didn't realize that the
- 26:54Speaker 2: dress I was wearing because we were just giving a
- 26:56Speaker 2: color palette and you can pick whatever dress you wanted,
- 26:58Speaker 2: so I picked one that I thought, Oh, this is
- 27:00Speaker 2: great for my quote unquote figure. I didn't realize that
- 27:04Speaker 2: the fabric showed moisture in the way that it.
- 27:07Speaker 1: Did not conduce him to the sweat.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Yeah, so I was like sweating so hard. And it's
- 27:12Speaker 2: like I had been so stressed out about these pictures
- 27:14Speaker 2: and then who knows that they even turned out. I
- 27:16Speaker 2: hope that photographer did some editing. And it's like, it's
- 27:19Speaker 2: too much pressure to be a bridesmaid. It would be
- 27:22Speaker 2: so much better to just wade around. Gabe, you think
- 27:25Speaker 2: that that's boring, but you don't know how good you
- 27:27Speaker 2: have it. My sister texted me. My sister VB said,
- 27:30Speaker 2: can you ask Mike if I can be a groomsman?
- 27:33Speaker 2: Being a bridesmaid sounds awful. She's never been a bridesmaid before,
- 27:37Speaker 2: but she's listening to the show and apparently I made
- 27:39Speaker 2: it sound terrible.
- 27:40Speaker 1: Yeah, ah, I will agree.
- 27:42Speaker 3: There's a lot more that goes into your bro to
- 27:46Speaker 3: being a bridesmaid. On the day of, you know, you
- 27:48Speaker 3: probably gotta wake up a little earlier. You got to
- 27:50Speaker 3: do all this getting ready. Yeah, well, at least you're
- 27:53Speaker 3: kind of doing something with a group of people. I'm
- 27:55Speaker 3: a collective's kind of guy. When you're with the collective
- 27:58Speaker 3: achieving a goal. Yeah, it sounds fun to me instead
- 28:02Speaker 3: of it's just like me and my buddies sitting around.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Hey man, you need help putting on suspenders. You know
- 28:08Speaker 3: what I'm saying. Like, it's just there's nothing too much.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Oh, Gabe, you just love the camradie. That's right, That's
- 28:14Speaker 2: what I'm Joseph adorable.
- 28:16Speaker 3: We did get a text from Marissa, and Marissa said, well,
- 28:19Speaker 3: Gabe is right, and being a groomsman is pretty boring
- 28:21Speaker 3: and you wait around for things guys don't care about.
- 28:24Speaker 3: There is so much more that goes into being a bridesmaid,
- 28:27Speaker 3: and that makes it a lot worse and or harder.
- 28:30Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 28:31Speaker 3: I think that is true. I just you know, I'm
- 28:33Speaker 3: just jealous. It just looks so fun. Okay, it's like
- 28:35Speaker 3: a slumber party. I didn't get invited to.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Well, you can be a bride'sman when I get married again, Gabe,
- 28:42Speaker 2: you can be on my side. All right, I'll take that. Okay.
- 28:51Speaker 3: This story was all over the TV in our studio,
- 28:55Speaker 3: Angie Oh, I recall as there was a Fargo native
- 28:58Speaker 3: who's receiving Internet attention for his heroic actions at this
- 29:03Speaker 3: amusement park, John Samson. He called it dad instincts, and
- 29:08Speaker 3: he saved this boy who becomes stuck above or he
- 29:12Speaker 3: became stuck high above the ground at Hershey Park in
- 29:16Speaker 3: central Pennsylvania. Samson, who grew up in Fargo and graduated
- 29:20Speaker 3: from Shanley High School in two thousand and four before
- 29:22Speaker 3: earning a degree from the University of North Dakota. He
- 29:24Speaker 3: now lives in the suburbs of Philadelphia with his family,
- 29:27Speaker 3: and he works as a veterinarian. The rescue, which took
- 29:31Speaker 3: place on Saturday, has gotten global media coverage. He said,
- 29:35Speaker 3: it's absolutely bonkers. Never in my mind when I fathom
- 29:38Speaker 3: this story getting that big.
- 29:41Speaker 1: There is this kid who's.
- 29:43Speaker 3: Like walking along the track of a roller coaster.
- 29:46Speaker 1: It's so weird.
- 29:48Speaker 2: When you are a parent, you're like Spidey sense tingles
- 29:52Speaker 2: when a kid is doing something that is dangerous, and
- 29:55Speaker 2: usually it's for your own kid. But like watching that,
- 29:59Speaker 2: it's like, huh and clearly his spidery sense was tingling. Yeah,
- 30:03Speaker 2: and he saved the day.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:05Speaker 3: So what he does is he like gets on the
- 30:07Speaker 3: roof of this building, shimmy's on up to this like
- 30:11Speaker 3: roller coaster track, gets this kid off with the help
- 30:15Speaker 3: of someone else, he was able to lower the kid
- 30:17Speaker 3: down to another adult. But this story's gone absolutely massive,
- 30:22Speaker 3: he says. I went up the concession stand right away
- 30:25Speaker 3: and I asked, is there a ladder on the outside
- 30:27Speaker 3: of the building that goes up? Which I didn't lead with,
- 30:29Speaker 3: there's a kid up on this monorail and basically becomes
- 30:34Speaker 3: the hero. How cool was that I saw that story
- 30:36Speaker 3: yesterday and then today finding out that this man is
- 30:39Speaker 3: from he grew up in Fargo, which I think is
- 30:42Speaker 3: very very cool. Way to go, John, if you see
- 30:45Speaker 3: that on your TV at some point today or tomorrow,
- 30:48Speaker 3: just no, he's one of us.
- 30:49Speaker 2: That's right.
- 30:50Speaker 3: The world is full of nice people. If you can't
- 30:52Speaker 3: find one, you gotta be one.
