- 0:17Speaker 1: I got to sleep in.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Oh.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Anytime I can go past 3.30 in the morning, it's
- 0:22Speaker 1: a win.
- 0:23Speaker 2: So what is sleeping in for you then? Like 4
- 0:24Speaker 2: or 5?
- 0:26Speaker 1: Well, I do wake up around 4, but then I
- 0:28Speaker 1: realize it's not a work day. And then I wake
- 0:30Speaker 1: up around 7. Ooh, that's late.
- 0:33Speaker 2: 7.15. I feel late about that.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Well, now it's all about the kids. So if the
- 0:36Speaker 1: kids are sleeping in, then we're sleeping in.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Do they sleep until 7.15?
- 0:38Speaker 1: 6.45, 7.
- 0:38Speaker 2: But they'll jump up in the bed.
- 0:42Speaker 1: And just kind of chill.
- 0:43Speaker 2: Do they ever go in and just make a waffle
- 0:45Speaker 2: or something? Like a frozen waffle?
- 0:46Speaker 1: Not yet. The house would be completely burned down if
- 0:49Speaker 1: they even attempted that.
- 0:51Speaker 2: You're not going to put a toaster on the floor?
- 0:52Speaker 1: I'm sure we're not far from those days.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Yeah, you probably are near those days.
- 0:55Speaker 1: I was so tired on Friday. I had one job.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Take my daughter to tennis practice.
- 1:02Speaker 2: How'd that go?
- 1:03Speaker 1: It went so bad. She did great, but guess what
- 1:05Speaker 1: I forgot? The tennis racket.
- 1:08Speaker 2: You kind of need that.
- 1:09Speaker 1: One job.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Now she's playing handball, Cubby.
- 1:12Speaker 1: It was handball. But the teacher was very cool. He
- 1:15Speaker 1: let us borrow something for a few minutes. Then my
- 1:17Speaker 1: wife was nearby, so she brought the tennis racket. But
- 1:20Speaker 1: a shout out to the coach of the tennis practice team.
- 1:23Speaker 1: His name is Luis.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Super cool dude. And we were talking and, you know,
- 1:29Speaker 1: young looking guy.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:30Speaker 1: And I'm like, do you have any kids? Because he's
- 1:32Speaker 1: so good with the kids. He's like, I got nine.
- 1:36Speaker 2: His nine kids.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Nine kids.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Nine kids.
- 1:38Speaker 1: I think the oldest is 34, I believe, and he
- 1:41Speaker 1: started at 19 making kids.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Making kids.
- 1:46Speaker 1: I did the math.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Making part of the kids.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Louisa, if you're listening, I believe you told me 34
- 1:50Speaker 1: is your oldest.
- 1:51Speaker 2: That's crazy.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Mainly all of them are out of the house. A
- 1:54Speaker 1: couple of them are home, but he said he has
- 1:56Speaker 1: one that's a cop and one that's a marine.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Is he a grandparent? At 34, he should be a grandparent.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I think he is a grandparent. I'm not sure. But
- 2:03Speaker 1: nine kids.
- 2:03Speaker 2: He's making some people. He's making like a crowd over there.
- 2:06Speaker 1: He really is. Making a new football team. How was
- 2:09Speaker 1: your weekend? Did you work?
- 2:11Speaker 2: I did work. And then yesterday we went to, I
- 2:15Speaker 2: just kind of wanted to go downtown. The fire museum,
- 2:18Speaker 2: New York City Fire Museum, reopened after a long renovation.
- 2:20Speaker 2: So we went.
- 2:21Speaker 1: You told me that's a good kid place.
- 2:22Speaker 2: It is a good kid place. It's not very big,
- 2:24Speaker 2: but they have old fire trucks in there. They have
- 2:27Speaker 2: one you can get in the cab. And so all
- 2:28Speaker 2: these kids were getting in there and like pushing the
- 2:30Speaker 2: buttons and stuff and making noise. Did one of them start? No,
- 2:34Speaker 2: I didn't start. They have like the old school kind
- 2:37Speaker 2: of 1890s, 1880s fire trucks, like the Gangs of New
- 2:40Speaker 2: York era fire trucks in there.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Oh, that's cool.
- 2:42Speaker 2: It's pretty cool. Yeah, lots of really cool stuff, like
- 2:45Speaker 2: the old hats they used to use, old awards. Do
- 2:48Speaker 2: you know that in the old days, if you were insured,
- 2:51Speaker 2: this is how fire companies started, insurance, you'd buy insurance
- 2:54Speaker 2: for your house, and insurance companies would hire people just
- 2:57Speaker 2: to protect those houses. Right. And no other houses would
- 3:00Speaker 2: be protected. And eventually they realized, well, if the house
- 3:02Speaker 2: next door is burning, we've got to help that one
- 3:04Speaker 2: because it might burn our client. So that's how it started.
- 3:06Speaker 2: You paid for someone to come.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Would they always be hanging out at the house for safety?
- 3:11Speaker 1: Or just if you did have a fire, they would
- 3:13Speaker 1: only go to your house. But if you had a fire,
- 3:14Speaker 1: you didn't have insurance, they wouldn't go to your house.
- 3:16Speaker 2: They wouldn't go to your house. You had a sign.
- 3:17Speaker 1: But it wasn't like they were hanging out in front
- 3:18Speaker 1: of your house all the time.
- 3:19Speaker 2: You had a sign like this place is insured by so-and-so.
- 3:21Speaker 2: And I guess the insurance companies knew the map because
- 3:23Speaker 2: how many people were, you know, 100 people in a town?
- 3:26Speaker 2: So that's how it started. Isn't that interesting?
- 3:28Speaker 1: Well, if that rule was still happening in 2026, you
- 3:30Speaker 1: could make, like, ChatGPT could make a fake sign. Put
- 3:34Speaker 1: it in front of your house.
- 3:35Speaker 2: I'm insured.
- 3:36Speaker 1: I'm insured. It would look just like the other signs.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Then you've got to pay for it afterwards, though.
- 3:39Speaker 1: That's true.
- 3:40Speaker 2: That's true.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Interesting.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Interesting.
- 3:41Speaker 1: This is in Soho, you said?
- 3:42Speaker 2: It's in Soho. It's on Spring Street, just on the
- 3:45Speaker 2: other side of Eric.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Called the Fire Museum?
- 3:47Speaker 2: It's called the New York Fire Museum.
- 3:49Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.
- 3:49Speaker 2: All right.
- 3:50Speaker 1: We're coming to speak at a cool, two pretty cool things.
- 3:52Speaker 1: What is that jingling, by the way?
- 3:53Speaker 2: Oh, it's my keys. Oh, okay. In case I got
- 3:55Speaker 2: to go.
- 3:56Speaker 1: All right. All right, two pretty cool things coming up
- 3:59Speaker 1: next on Light FM.
