- 0:00Speaker 1: This reminds me I need to send This reminds me
- 0:05Speaker 1: I need to send Festus another care package. He's due
- 0:08Speaker 1: for a care package, so I would love some suggestions
- 0:13Speaker 1: of some things I could send.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Fill it with underpants, underpants, just a box of nothing,
- 0:17Speaker 2: but like twenty pairs of underpants. I don't know if
- 0:22Speaker 2: he needs underpants. I don't know if he gets like
- 0:24Speaker 2: but whether he will.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Carry issue underpants.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Like navy shorts, navy underpants, navy pants. But I would
- 0:33Speaker 2: say just as a joke.
- 0:35Speaker 1: I talked to him yesterday morning because we're twelve hour difference,
- 0:40Speaker 1: because he's in the middle of the ocean. Hello, sailor boy,
- 0:45Speaker 1: And I said, what's what's going on? And he said, well,
- 0:48Speaker 1: I saw I got you those shoes for Christmas.
- 0:50Speaker 2: They fit, they work.
- 0:51Speaker 3: He's like, yeah, they're great.
- 0:52Speaker 1: I've been using him because once a week we have
- 0:57Speaker 1: a a IDC challenge, a health clinic challenge, okay, and
- 1:03Speaker 1: the challenges they divide up the people in the clinic
- 1:05Speaker 1: into teams. Yes, and it's like a medical scavenger hunt
- 1:11Speaker 1: where they station fake medical emergencies around the island and
- 1:16Speaker 1: it's a race to see who can get to the
- 1:19Speaker 1: emergency and properly assess it and move on to the
- 1:22Speaker 1: next emergency, and they have to run between. Like so
- 1:26Speaker 1: you start out at the clinic, and he said, the
- 1:29Speaker 1: way it starts is they ask a question, and whoever
- 1:32Speaker 1: answers the question first correctly.
- 1:35Speaker 3: You get like a head start. And so his team
- 1:38Speaker 3: got the.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Head start and they had to run first to the
- 1:41Speaker 1: beach and there's like somebody in the water and it's
- 1:44Speaker 1: an you know, it's another sailor that's acting you know.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Oh no, I need I have.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Jellyfish, got me you And they have to assess them
- 1:56Speaker 1: and move on to the next one.
- 1:57Speaker 2: So I've always really disliked like work situations where they
- 2:02Speaker 2: try to make it fun by making organizing activities.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think, I mean, there's that, but it
- 2:08Speaker 1: also probably is good practice for them, like, Okay, what
- 2:12Speaker 1: would we do if we found somebody floating in the water,
- 2:15Speaker 1: And what are the steps I need to remember for
- 2:18Speaker 1: assessing them to find out what happened?
- 2:20Speaker 2: No, why don't why don't you just why don't you
- 2:21Speaker 2: just study that and do it? But I have to
- 2:24Speaker 2: run to it. And oh and I get points because
- 2:27Speaker 2: it's because it's.
- 2:27Speaker 1: A different way to learn Bill hands on. But so
- 2:32Speaker 1: I was asking him about the shoes and he said
- 2:34Speaker 1: they were great, but they got really wet because I
- 2:37Speaker 1: ran into the water with he.
- 2:40Speaker 2: I told you it was no good.
- 2:42Speaker 4: Let's see, when my son was deployed, I saved every
- 2:45Speaker 4: fast food sauce and put them in a gallon baggy
- 2:49Speaker 4: and sent him those.
- 2:50Speaker 1: That's a great idea because he misses the fast food.
- 2:53Speaker 2: It's one of the things he missed. What was it
- 2:55Speaker 2: that he wanted to go to Taco bacle.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Bell Yeah in Japan's a great idea.
- 3:02Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I know there's a lot of soy sauce
- 3:04Speaker 3: out there.

- 3:12Speaker 2: packets and mayonnaise packets. Yeah.
- 3:14Speaker 1: If you've had a a kiddo deployed somewhere, what did
- 3:18Speaker 1: you send them that they loved? Because he's due, But
- 3:21Speaker 1: I might I might take some of Tasha's ideas and
- 3:24Speaker 1: send her send him some of these snacks. I don't
- 3:26Speaker 1: know if I can send him liqueur chocolates, they probably
- 3:29Speaker 1: will confiscate.
- 3:31Speaker 3: Could I give you some comic books to send him? Oh,
- 3:34Speaker 3: it'd be great, because does he like comic book? Yeah,
- 3:37Speaker 3: because they're just they're just sitting there in my house.
- 3:40Speaker 1: So please, seriously, please, I'm putting a box together.
