• 1:57
  Speaker 1: there is some rough moments or whatever. I feel like
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: it was dying down, but now you know this. You
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: know when he's been posting some things on our Instagram
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just like updates or what not, updates but whatever. So
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: it's been ramping up again. But it's all good man.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: You know, It's like life goes on for everybody. It's
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: just it's just one of those things we gotta we
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: got to continue on. And I've said it before, I'll
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: say it again. You know, it's kind of you learn
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: this in entertainment, right show biz. That's saying that the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: show goes on. It's it's that's how it really is.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: You know, we have this show here and when there's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: a change, the show still goes on. You know, you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: heard me talking to Santa yesterday about stuff that we
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: went through. And I remember that, man. I remember I
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: was so low in the totem pole, but these big
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: changes happened, and I remember thinking the same thing, like
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: how are people going to react to this? And they
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: were pissed. They were pissed for sure. You know, I
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: still get comments, I still get the talkbacks every day. People,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you know, angry or whatever, which I don't really understand
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the you know, leaving a talkback in anger, because you
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: have to be listening to the show to leave the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: talk pack. So are you just like opening the app
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: because you're angry? Are you listening and not hearing what
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: you want? So then you leave a talkback? I'm not sure.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, whatever it is, what it is, life goes on.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, we all got problems. I got problems. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: got problems at home. Man. You know, I got a
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: family just like you probably do. You know, it's hard
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: raising kids. It's not easy. You know. I have two kids,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: eight and three. My eight year old abel Is. I
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: love him to death. He's the best kid ever, but
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: he has his own issues. And you know what, parenting
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: is hard no matter when it is, but especially in
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty five with technology in raising them in the
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: digital age. That's kind of what's going on now, is
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you know he you know, he talks to his friends
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: on messenger and that causes problems and then he's on
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: roadblocks and we monitor it, but things still get through. Man,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: it's a wild world, so much different. Last night, my
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: friend Mike came over. He comes over regularly. To do
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the sauna with me, and he said, last night, you know,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: because I was talking to Able about some things whatever,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and he's like, Wow, think about how we grew up
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: versus how they're growing up. When we grew up, there
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: was no technology. I mean, there were cell phones as
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I got older. When I was younger, when I was
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: eight years old, there were no cell phones. There was
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: no technology. But now that's all it is. Everything is technology.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: It's just wild. And he's playing this game on roadblocks.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It's called Steal Brain Rot. It's like the hot game
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: for kids. And the whole point of the game, are
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you ready for this? Is to steal other people's stuff.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: So what's happening, This is what I'm alluding to the issues.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: What's happening is he's playing these game with his friends
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and he's either stealing their stuff or they're stealing his stuff,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: and either way they start freaking out. So he stole
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the kid down the streets stuff. A while back, that
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: kid freaked out, a kid's mother called my wife to say, like,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: can he give it back? And then Abel stole some
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: other kids stuff. And then it happened again last night.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Another kid was stealing his stuff and he was crying again.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: It's crazy. So I say to my wife, get this
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: game off of it. I don't want to want them
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to play it anymore. But it's the hot game that
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: all his friends are playing. So yeah, it's just man.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Sometimes about life is about perspective. You learn that after
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a while. It's about how you look at things, and
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: you got to look at like, what really matters most.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: You know, obviously for me it's my family, it's my recovery,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: all that stuff, you know, my close friends, my job,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: my career. But when it comes to people that you know,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: are upset and want to write nasty things and boycot
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the show and all that stuff, it's like I understand,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: But you know what really matters is my kid man,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: My kids really matters, as me being a good father,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: you know, I was thinking about that recently. You know,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: being a father and becoming a parent has taught me
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: so many things, but one of the top things that
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: it's kind of taught me is that it gave me
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: a purpose in life, right, It gave me a meaning.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I remember, before having kids, I would fear death. And
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: you know, nobody wants to die, right, but I would
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: think about death and get very scared, like, you know,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: is there a heaven? Where am I going to go?
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I'm never coming back Infinity. You start going down that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: rabbit hole and it's tough to get out of. But
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: when I had kids, it kind of made how do
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I put this, It made dying easier almost in a sense.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I know this is going to sound crazy, but maybe
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: you'll understand, but it gave me purpose in life. That
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: my purpose in life was to be a good father
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: to these children and to raise these children the best
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: way that I can and to give them the best
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: life that I can and hope and hope that they
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: grow up to be good humans that help others and
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: live a good life and be there for them every
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: step of the way. And if I can do that,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: if I can get that job done when it's my time,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: it makes it not that bad because my job has
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: been done. Does that make sense? I don't know. But
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that's the important things in life. It's my kids, it's
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: my marriage. It's the the attics that are struggle struggling
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: that I'm trying to help that reach out to help.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You know, it's that addict that you know can't get
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: a day clean, that legit cannot take the kneel out
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: of their arm or the crack pipe out of their mouth.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: They don't know what to do. And they look at
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: me and they talk to me and they're like, how
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: did you do it? And I try to tell them
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: and help them. That's what matters. That's the important thing.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: So it just got to the point where I'm you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: getting so cut up in these comments or whatever, and
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I'm like, is this really important? You know? I know
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: what we do on this show. I know that the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: work that we put in the three of us, it
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: was the four of us put in together. Now there's
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: three of us that we show up every day, and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I put my heart and soul into this show. I'm

• 7:39
  Speaker 1: show together, trying to giving entertaining show, you know, And
• 7:44

• 7:46
  Speaker 1: it is, what it is. But I do my best.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I still show up to work on time. It's the
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: very basics of life, you know what I mean. I
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: just that's what I've done the whole time. That's I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: said it yesterday with Santy Right, hard work beats talent
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: in most cases, I am not talented at all. You
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: may think I am. I don't think I am. But
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I'm a hard worker. Yeah. Can you count on me
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: to get things done? Yeah? Do I put the show first?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Do I put the team first? Is it about the
