  Speaker 1: What's up, friends? After Show Podcast. Here we go. It's
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: a Monday. It is September 21st, the day before my birthday. Man,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: crazy day. Things always seem to come up when you
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: least expect them. Anyway, yeah, good weekend. I'll get to
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: that in a moment. But I had this whole plan
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: of doing a whole recap of my weekend and things
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: going on, jingle ball this week. But I have to
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: pick up my wife's Aunt Franca. If you're a longtime listener,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: you remember Franca. She lived with us when I first
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: bought the house with my mother-in-law downstairs, and then they
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: did not get along. I mean, they're sisters. They're like
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: best friends, but they couldn't live together. So Franca ended
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: up moving out, and she ended up moving to Florida
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: with her son and his family. So now she's coming
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: to visit. So I'm going to pick her up. She
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: lands at 10 a.m. So Nani was going to drive
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: all the way down. I'm like, I'll just pick her up.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Just tell her 10.30. By the time she gets off,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: gets her bag, gets out, it's going to be around
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: 10.30 anyway. And then last night we got hit with, well,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: we have to film a Jingle Ball video this morning.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: So it's going to be very tight. We have to
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: get off the air soon and film the video. And
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: then I have to get in my car and drive
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to Logan Airport. So only got a couple of minutes
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: with you guys. But I love you, man. I always
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: think about the After Show Army. I think about, like,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: this thing that we have, the people that listen to
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: this podcast and make me a part of their routine,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: make this podcast a part of their routine. And all
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the changes that have happened and different co-hosts and now
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it's just me. And I love it. People leave talkbacks.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: They chime in. They give recommendations on things that I
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: talk about, which I really do appreciate.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Hey, Justin, just catching up on the show, after show podcast. Listen,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: cruise is the way to go. I just came off
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: a cruise this past August. I went on the Carnival
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: of Mardi Gras. This is my third year in a
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: row going on that one. Now I'm looking for a
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: new one for next August. Trust me, man. I have
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: two girls, eight and 13, and I'm telling you, cruising
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: is the way to go. You're not going to regret it, man.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: It's the best I've Ever. That's the only way I
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: travel now.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes. I remember him. We met. Bex and I
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: met him. I believe it was Bex. Yeah, met him.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: But thank you so much. So, yeah, we were all
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: set on the cruise, right? And then last night she
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: says to me, I'm rethinking the cruise. And I'm like, no,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: we're going on the cruise. We decided it. We're going
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: to try it out. But last night she was like, no,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do some more research and figure out stuff.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, I don't know, man. Just pick somewhere
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and we'll go. She's looking at Punta Cana and all-inclusive resorts, Bahamas.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I think we should do the cruise, honestly. I really do.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's seven nights. It's a full week.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: We fly to Miami. They stop at multiple islands, Bahamas, Mexico, Honduras.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I think those are the three. And I think it's
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a good– I'm with you, man. I think it's a
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: good thing to try. Everyone that goes on cruises loves cruises.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: And then there are the other people that don't and
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: for whatever reason– But I don't know. I'll report back
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: on this. But you know the wife. She's the boss.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: So I have to go along with what she says.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: You don't want to upset her. But speaking of her,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: my beautiful wife, threw the best birthday party with me.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I mean for me this weekend. Oh, my God. It
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: was great. So Saturday night we went to Nightmare in
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: New England. It is a haunted house attraction in Litchfield,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: New Hampshire. That was a good time. If you haven't been,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: I recommend it. It's like five haunted houses that you
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: walk through. One's a hayride. One's outside walks. You walk
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: through the woods and then three other houses. And they
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: have all like your typical guys, you know, characters walking
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: around and food. They have a bonfire. It's a really
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: good time. DJ, you know, with kids, if they're old enough,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I took Abel. It wasn't too scary for him. You know,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: he kind of just walked with me. It was a really,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: really great time. So check that out. And then the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: birthday party. My birthday is tomorrow, but she had this
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: big plan to have the party outside in the backyard
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: with the giant projector that she just bought. So have
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the football game on the pads at 1 o'clock. And
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: then I didn't know this, but she was planning to
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: hire a hibachi chef to come in and cook hibachi
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: for all the people, all my friends at the party. Unfortunately,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: it rained. We had to move inside. So she had
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: to do all the decorating, all the setup inside. canceled
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the hibachi, and got Chipotle catering. You know me. I
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: love Chipotle. You hear my commercial all the time on Kiss.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: It's no lie. I love Chipotle. But the catering is incredible.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, she had everything. All the meats, plus she
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: had Nani make ground beef to add, but literally you
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: can make your own bowls, burritos, hard taco, soft taco.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: It was great. Shout out to all my friends and
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: family that came. It was also my dad's birthday because
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: his birthday is Friday. So we kind of celebrated both.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: She hung up all these Peruvian flags. It was a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: good time. It was very small, very intimate. But that's
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: how I like it. Either way would have been fine.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: She put so much effort into it. She really is
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: just a thoughtful person to do that for me. So yeah,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: birthday tomorrow. I'm feeling good. I don't get upset about birthdays.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I feel good about them. It's a gift to be
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: able to grow old. And we're here for a short time,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: not a long time. That's how it is. My dad
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: is turning 74 years old and he is struggling a
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: bit and I can't identify with him because I'm not 74.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what it's like to be that age.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: But he's pretty honest with me about it, having anxiety
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and kind of thinking about the end, right? You get
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: to that point where you're thinking about, I only have
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: so many years left. How many years do I have
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: left on this earth? And then I'm gone. Is it
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: five years? Is it 10 years? What are those years
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: going to look like? How am I going to feel? Um,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I can't identify with that, but you know, I hear
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: them out and then I just say to them, look dad,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the way I look at life and I've shared this
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: before is, you know, when we accept life, we accept death.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: All right. We're here for that short time and it's,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it's important what we do in that time. And if
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: I'm able to complete or, or do the things that
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: I want to do in life, be a good person,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: raise kids, raise a family, I'm okay with that. You know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it's just the way it goes. Life's not fair. And
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: then I point out to him, like, look, man, look
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: at your two sons, right? You got, you know, me
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: and then my brother. My brother's a nurse. He does
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: so well. I mean, he's married, has two small kids.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: My brother's like the best person ever. I'm like, you
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: raised two beautiful boys, okay? You have four grandkids who
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: you love. They love you. They're the light of his life.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I'm like, look, you worked your whole life. You raised
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: a family. You know what I mean? You're retired now.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Nothing, not everything's perfect. You know, we go through pain
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: in life. Things happen, divorce and death. And, you know,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: I think the thing with my dad is that he
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: had dreams in life. And I think this is why
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: he's so proud of me, not just as a father
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and seeing your son's success, but I think that with him,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: he had all of these, these goals and dreams that
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: he was not able to accomplish. Um, The thing with
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: my dad is he has like– he has ADD, right?
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: So that kind of plays into it. So the best
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: way to describe it is he had a million different
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: jobs growing up. He just went from job to job.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: He couldn't keep a job. He's been literally everything. He
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: was a film producer, director and, yeah, shot adult films.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: We talk about that in the show. He also was
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: a cab driver. He worked at a shrimp factory. He
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: was a mechanic. He never had one solid career and
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: he ended with working for FedEx. But like the last
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: like 10 or 15 years of his career. But yeah,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: he just never could like lock it down. And I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: don't know. You ever hear that saying that, you know,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: as a parent, you want your kids to be more
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: successful than you are? I feel like this is a
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: perfect example of that. You know, I didn't intend, like
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: you know my story. I've been through a lot of
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: fucking crazy shit, right? And he never, ever thought I
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: would get to where I'm at. But the fact that
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I did, I feel like makes him feel better. So
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: we had a good conversation about that and he was
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: feeling better after it. But yeah, I mean I'm sure
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: when I'm 74, I'll have the same thoughts in my head.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I'm just kind of going to get them out. Look
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: at the positive. Everybody is going to meet that day, everybody,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: no matter what. But it's about what we do in
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: the time that we have here. That's my thoughts on that.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: All right, video time is coming up soon. The show
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: is not even over. I'm recording this during commercials. That's
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: how dedicated I am to the after show, you know.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Because after the show, when it ends, they'll be running
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: around and videos and all that stuff. So I had
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: to record during the show. So don't tell anybody. All right?
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I'm going to post this up pretty soon. But, yeah,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: tomorrow's my birthday. I love you guys. We'll talk later.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Bye.
