- 0:00Hey, I'm Stephanie.
- 0:00I'm Meredith.
- 0:01And I'm Heather.
- 0:02And welcome to, this is My Circus.
- 0:05Um, as you know, because of the intro, we have our guest today.
- 0:09So we are super excited to have you.
- 0:10I'm very happy to have Heather here.
- 0:12Heather's been a friend of both of ours for a very long time.
- 0:15Yes.
- 0:16Football Mama Uhhuh.
- 0:18Our babies were bobble bobbleheads first year putting on football helmets Yep.
- 0:22And bumping into each other on the football field and Yep, absolutely.
- 0:26I immediately loved y'all cuz you're Eagle fans.
- 0:28Yeah.
- 0:28Yeah.
- 0:29I am the Eagle fan, so it was, was so nice the shout so funny.
- 0:34Sport just as crazy, right?
- 0:37Yeah.
- 0:38Yeah.
- 0:39I, um, I remember that first year, not much cause I was just so overwhelmed with everything.
- 0:45But I remember you guys specifically at the Kings Mountain game In the Rain.
- 0:51In the Rain Game by chance.
- 0:53It was the only one we won.
- 0:55It wasn't exactly that.
- 0:57That's probably why I remember it seemed Cause it's the only one we won.
- 1:00And um, gosh, yeah.
- 1:01I'll never forget that day.
- 1:02And that feeling and watching those kids and watching Juicy and Yeah.
- 1:06Um, Jackson and Dylan out there and I probably couldn't even tell who was who cause they all looked at this.
- 1:12Yeah, I probably did at that point.
- 1:13Didn't even know the difference between defense and offense, meaning neith, but, um, meaning neither thought.
- 1:18I still get confused.
- 1:19Jackson laughs at me cuz I make up names of things.
- 1:22Like a safety, I think should be a tackle back.
- 1:27I bet.
- 1:27Awesome.
- 1:28It makes sense because they tackled'em in the backfield.
- 1:30Yeah.
- 1:30Yes.
- 1:30But we're gonna call that the tackle box.
- 1:32It's not the backfield now, it's the tackle box.
- 1:34Oh.
- 1:35See.
- 1:36Huh.
- 1:36I'm always learning.
- 1:37That's great.
- 1:38So when I, um, when I met my husband, I hated sports.
- 1:41Yeah.
- 1:41He could not stand football, basketball.
- 1:43Really?
- 1:44All, all he watched hated'em.
- 1:46And so, like, our family grew up until the Panthers came along.
- 1:49They were Cowboys fans, of course.
- 1:50And so I had like a cowboy.
- 1:52All right.
- 1:53I know, I know.
- 1:53I, I learned.
- 1:55You learned.
- 1:55Yeah.
- 1:56So, so, um, I had one cowboy shirt.
- 1:58I used to wear it to work.
- 1:59People would like roast me.
- 2:00Oh my god.
- 2:01Those are cowboys.
- 2:02And so I met Adam when we, we, we started getting serious.
- 2:04We lived together.
- 2:05Mm-hmm.
- 2:06And I went from like, oh man, I wish this, I wish this man would quit watching sports.
- 2:10I hate football.
- 2:11I hate basketball.
- 2:11Why does he always go college now too?
- 2:14So then eventually it got to where, I would find myself watching like football with him.
- 2:19Course.
- 2:19Of course.
- 2:19Yep.
- 2:20And I would be laughing when his team would lose the Eagles.
- 2:22I'm like, oh, they lost football.
- 2:24You know what a flag was.
- 2:25At the same time I'm learning the game.
- 2:26I'm like, what'd they throw that flag for?
- 2:27Oh, that's a false start.
- 2:28Oh, okay.
- 2:28So I'm learning.
- 2:29Yeah.
- 2:30And so then I got to wear it.
- 2:31I realized that anytime they lost, like our weekend was ruined.
- 2:34So I would start cheering for him.
- 2:36I'm like, okay, let's go Eagles.
- 2:37Can we please be in the green team?
- 2:40But we wanna go to dinner tonight with the good attitude.
- 2:42Please win.
- 2:42Yeah.
- 2:43And then as, as it progressed, we got married, we had Juicy, and then when Juicy started playing sports, that's when I became like, I can't imagine Heather with no sports in her life.
- 2:53You so boring.
- 2:54I was so boring.
- 2:55I mean, I'm still more, I totally am.
- 3:00Yeah.
- 3:00But it was, it was good.
- 3:01Like that's why I, I tell everybody the story when they're like, oh, you used to be a Cowboys fan.
- 3:04No, I used to not know nothing about sports.
- 3:06Right.
- 3:06That was the only shirt I had with any sports was so I would wear it.
- 3:10But now I've come to my.
- 3:11My senses and yep.
- 3:14They're, um, rivals, right?
- 3:16They're in the same complex, divisional, they hate each other.
- 3:19Plus everybody hates the Cowboys except for the Cowboys fans.
- 3:22Dunno if there's any out there.
- 3:23You're not, no additionals.
- 3:27I'm no, I'm not a cowboys.
- 3:28Yeah.
- 3:29So now like, like especially at work, I'll find, I'll find myself.
- 3:32Like, like the guys will come to me and they'll be talking about the games and stuff.
- 3:36Yeah.
- 3:36And like I can carry a conversation on like, I can, you know, we, I fill out the, I think these are illegal, so maybe edit this part out.
- 3:42But I would Harley cards, like we would put money on the game.
- 3:45Oh yeah.
- 3:46And I had no pro promise y'all there a football season last year I had one card where everyone of my predictions was a hundred percent right.
- 3:52Well one what?
- 3:53Everybody's bloody So I We should do a girl one of those this year.
- 3:56Yeah.
- 3:56You not here.
- 3:57We barely watch the fall since the Eagles on the Super Bowl.
- 4:00Well you just got that on top.
- 4:01You were like, we won football.
- 4:04We walk away and like business Really, really like Yeah.
- 4:08Consumed my entire life.
- 4:09I gotcha.
- 4:09And I'm like, well we finally got the Super Bowl.
- 4:13I'm good.
- 4:13Yeah.
- 4:14Yeah.
- 4:14You guys can stop now.
- 4:17We're good.
- 4:19That's funny.
- 4:20But like, being a sports mom on the weekends and I know, you know, lacrosse and all that, I mean, it's hard to catch games.
- 4:25Like on s we, we don't get to watch any, like I, I would record my, like, I like Clemson.
- 4:29Yeah.
- 4:30I would record the Clemson games and then on the Sundays, like the Eagles, we, nine times outta 10 we're recording them.
- 4:34And by the time we can actually watch'em, we're too tired.
- 4:36So yeah, we might catch it a couple days later and then it's not as fun.
- 4:39Cause you already know who won, so.
- 4:41Yeah.
- 4:41What do you, what'd you do?
- 4:42I was just laughing at Dylan.
- 4:43Oh, hey Dylan.
- 4:46Hi Dylan.
- 4:47Um, I, we borrowed your chair so I'm sorry.
- 4:49Sorry.
- 4:50Just, you just wanted Dad's extra ones in there.
- 4:52You need it?
- 4:53Two thumbs up.
- 4:54Um, no.
- 4:55Did he give a thumbs up?
- 4:56He gave two.
- 4:57Sure.
- 4:58Heather there.
- 4:58Somebody Juicy thumbs up is a thing.
- 5:02Heather, we have pictures of Heather that does it.
- 5:05Like she'll be posing with like pro football players like the Panthers and, and she'll be like two thumbs up.
- 5:12So it's a funny thing.
- 5:13It was, I like, I just did it at Juicys graduation, the eighth grade graduation all night.
- 5:17Yeah.
- 5:17Um, he was sitting there.
- 5:18We, I caught him, kept giving me the side, I like look it up at us.
- 5:20And so at the end, right after he walked and he sat back Dale, I was like, And the girl side of it was laughing so hard.
- 5:28That is funny.
- 5:29So when Dylan played football Yeah.
- 5:32Um, you know, cuz they can't hear on the field.
- 5:34No.
- 5:34Um, unless it's like one of those really crazy moms like, and then who, I know some of them, but none of them are in this room.
- 5:42We have exciting news about basketball.
- 5:44Yes, I saw yesterday, but let's announce.
- 5:46Okay.
- 5:46So, um, our a a U team, the War Eagles were Jackson and Juicy are on the same team.
- 5:51Played this weekend in a tournament in Lake Wally called the Memorial Day Classic.
- 5:55Is that right?
- 5:55Heather?
- 5:56Like, Wally like go classic.
- 5:57Um, and they went, won the gold championship.
- 6:01Yeah.
- 6:02That's kept it home.
- 6:03Yep.
- 6:03So loved it.
- 6:04And it was, that last game was an amazing game.
- 6:07Yes.
- 6:08Um, it was like back and forth the entire game.
- 6:11And Juicy even said after we were leaving, he was like, after all the excitement went down and he was like, mom, he was like, you know, crush elite's kind of becoming our um, our rock levels.
- 6:19Yeah.
- 6:19I was like, yeah, because it's not even like them swapping baskets back and forth, but the fans like, we always do our defense chance, we're like defense.
- 6:26The crowd gets in, so Yeah.
- 6:27Bang on the bleachers.
- 6:28I have a bruise to prove it.
- 6:29Like, oh my gosh.
- 6:30Gosh, Heather.
- 6:31Oh, so we, uh, we get loud and then Yeah, they're on defense.
- 6:35They try to do it, you know, their fans try to mimic and then we'll hit a three in their faces and kind of quiet that down a little bit or so them, and then they'll do it by, uh, but it's really one of those games where just the lead kept swapping back and forth and it was tied a lot, and it was intense from start to finish when all those kids, both teams gave like everything they had.
- 6:55Mm-hmm.
- 6:55So, Success.
- 6:56And if it wouldn't been for Jackson's n one at the end, like No, I'm telling you, I think we would've went his, his overtime maybe even lost the game.
- 7:03Cuz he, he took that an one got, he got lucky.
- 7:06Give him his credit.
- 7:08Good.
- 7:09And he's learning to dunk.
- 7:11Like, that's awesome.
- 7:12We have, we have like, I love it.
- 7:14I, I see this, I don't even know where it came out of.
- 7:16Like I'm, if I have, I missed a couple months or something.
- 7:18I where it seems like when Juicy was learning it, there was like months of trying, I don't know what, I never even saw Jackson try before.
- 7:24He is the white.
- 7:25He's the white, that's why he calls himself.
- 7:28Speaking of Dunking is Juicys hand.
- 7:30Okay.
- 7:30Yes.
- 7:30Oh, I, yes, I, I saw that on Facebook, but he grabbed the rim when he was dunking and so Two Hands is new for two, right?
- 7:38Yes.
- 7:38So he grabbed it and this is what I'm, I'm always worried about like their fingers getting Yeah.
- 7:42Yeah.
- 7:42Tangled up in a rope or whatever happens up there.
- 7:45So the, what hap what happened on this?
- 7:47This was, the game started.
- 7:49I was sitting like in the corner by the team cause I like to try to record.
- 7:52Um, so I was sitting over there and he came over there.
- 7:55Miss Meredith, you got a bandaid.
- 7:59All I had was like, Monsters.
- 8:01Band-aids, like, um, monster eyeballs, monster stuff?
- 8:04Like lime green, right?
- 8:05The lime green sports table.
- 8:06No, they so good like that.
- 8:08He was fine with it.
- 8:09Yeah.
- 8:09Cause we bought him Brown yesterday and he was mad.
- 8:11He was like, why can't you miss married?
- 8:13I was like, back here, we gotta get this rap before the game.
- 8:16Like, well, you know, that gets so sweaty.
- 8:19It's so gross.
- 8:20So I was like, this is not gonna stay.
- 8:21So I had like three bandaids on it all the time.
- 8:23All the while like watching the court.
- 8:25Cause it was a timeout.
- 8:26it the, yeah.
- 8:27Special timeout.
- 8:28Right.
- 8:28It was one of those games.
- 8:29It was one of those parents yelling at the coat.
- 8:31The reference.
- 8:32Is that what was going on?
- 8:33Yes.
- 8:33You didn't know I was too busy.
- 8:35Carrying your son.
- 8:38So, okay.
- 8:38So that's, that's the only reason I knew.
- 8:40Like, I kept seeing him holding his finger and kept looking at him, wiping it on again.
- 8:43But I didn't realize that he was bleeding and stuff until this special time out.
- 8:47When, um, there was, the parents were, the other team were like yelling at the ref, like the lady was cussing at him.
- 8:53And so the ref, like the ref called a timeout and he went, he asked them to get the, the administrator out in the hallway.
- 8:59So, um, so the next game after our championship yesterday, um, the score was wrong.
- 9:05So apparently the, like the referees, like, it was like, Like five, six minutes into the game.
- 9:10And they were the, those guys on the scoreboard were given the points to the wrong team.
- 9:12So they were, the score was right, but it was backwards, like home and gas.
- 9:16Okay.
- 9:16And so, um, the fans started getting like irate.
- 9:20Mm-hmm.
- 9:20And one of the guys got up outta the stands, he walks like over there to where the, uh, pass the ref, pass the game to the scoreboard.
- 9:27And he yells at them, y'all need to get the effing score.
- 9:30Right.
- 9:30And those guys are like, what?
- 9:31So let me, let me back this up a little bit.
- 9:33These two guys are on the scoreboard, are high school basketball players, right.
- 9:36They're there because Coach Jackson asked for a, this weekend, he like runs a score.
- 9:40I'll give you like X dollars a right.
- 9:42Like nothing.
- 9:43They're there, you know, to volunteer and their time on the weekend Yep.
- 9:46To make sure that those, these scoreboards get ran.
- 9:48Right.
- 9:48Okay.
- 9:49And so the guy walks past them, he goes over there to the administrators and he's like yelling and talking junk to them.
- 9:55Uhhuh.
- 9:56And the coach for the blue team, he like, he looks over at, um, the administrator and he was like, you need to tell these idiots to get the score right.
- 10:04And they're kids.
- 10:04And the referee was like, hold on a minute, these are kids.
- 10:06He was like, these are, these are kids that you're talking to.
- 10:08And the guy was like, I don't care.
- 10:09So it got so ugly.
- 10:10And then next thing we know, I promise you, you know, the taller riff that was riffing him.
- 10:14Yeah.
- 10:15So, um, next, this is not funny, we can tell it is really serious.
- 10:22We know this, this guy that had came by the stands like this, this like big dad bond.
- 10:27Yeah.
- 10:28Red calf.
- 10:29Like just, you feel like he was going grilling after he got left out of there.
- 10:33So he's like getting the administrator, he's yelling at the administrator about, y'all need to get his these rs, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 10:38Well, the one raft turned around and like all you see was his fist balled up.
- 10:42And he was like, who?
- 10:43So nok, you're no kaba talking to me.
- 10:44Like, like he was getting his face and oh my god, his fist are back here.
- 10:48But he's like, he's gonna hit me back.
- 10:49Somebody invisible was holding him back.
- 10:52The guy that was over it was like, tried to break it up and he was like, just go sit back down.
- 10:56Coach Jackson stood up and like yelled at the guy in the crowd.
- 11:00He was like, Hey, you have another problem, uh, with these two right here.
- 11:03You talk to me, you don't talk to my players.
- 11:04You talk to me.
- 11:05And the guy was like, okay, okay.
- 11:07He's a big dude.
- 11:07He's a big dude.
- 11:08And he was mad.
- 11:09He kept staring at that guy.
- 11:10Like you could see, like he would look at his phone, shake his head, he would look back up like, well, good for him though, but cause love of that, he needs that protection.
- 11:16Like, you know, like I, you know, it's always scary when your kids play for a coach.
- 11:20You don't know if you can tru.
- 11:21Well, I mean, yeah, we've been lucky, right?
- 11:23And so to know, like, to see that, like I just know he's got the back, got those kids back.
- 11:27Yeah.
- 11:27Yeah.
- 11:27So I love that.
- 11:28Now is Crush Gastonia?
- 11:30No, I don't know where they're, they're out of South Carolina for some reason it's not thinking Spartanburg, but um, Probably, I'm only thinking Orangeburg because they're orange.
- 11:37Orange.
- 11:37I thought that same thing.
- 11:39I They look like the, like Yeah.
- 11:40Orange and purple, like the crushed sodas.
- 11:41Okay.
- 11:42And we crushed their dream.
- 11:43I asked, cause remember I told you about the fight on the field with lacrosse.
- 11:46Mm-hmm.
- 11:46But that, that thing was called the crush and they do fall too.
- 11:50Yeah.
- 11:50And I, cuz I thought of that too.
- 11:52Yeah.
- 11:52Um, look, but I do know Jackson's exhausted because that dude in that last game was, he's huge.
- 11:57Big's huge.
- 11:58And you know, except what the does and, you know, big doesn't bother him as long as they're not too fast.
- 12:04Like he doesn't mind pushing'em around.
- 12:06But yeah.
- 12:06But he was tired.
- 12:08But, you know, I um, have a tendency does.
- 12:10Stalk teams and edit this and stuff.
- 12:15So after the game, I was just, I was on their page because I was really just trying to figure out where they're from.
- 12:19Cause I, right.
- 12:20Juy said that I told him before they're outta Winston Salem, but I don't remember that.
- 12:23And so I was just the crush.
- 12:25Yes.
- 12:25And so I'm googling trying to figure it out and I I ended up finding that big boy.
- 12:29Yeah.
- 12:29Yeah.
- 12:30Him, um, like his, yeah.
- 12:31And so I went on his, on his dash on his dad, dad.
- 12:36Dad.
- 12:38She, oh, she would be the president of the, she had got a good future business.
- 12:45Uhhuh, I think.
- 12:46So I'll do the undercover work.
- 12:49Right.
- 12:50I feel like I can blend in really.
- 12:52Good.
- 12:52Tell about Yeah, you do.
- 12:54I would love to wear disguises though.
- 12:55Yeah, that would be awesome.
- 12:56And you do all the stalking?
- 12:57Yes.
- 12:59A legend.
- 12:59Stalking.
- 13:00Good.
- 13:01Well, look, the kids only, he just turned 14 last month, so I was thinking like he's huge.
- 13:05But I was thinking that's another Jackson.
- 13:06Like everybody sees Jackson and they're like, oh man, there's no here.
- 13:09He's big.
- 13:09And that's not like he's a baby too.
- 13:11Yeah.
- 13:11I believe he looks, he looks more, he's got the mustache That was crazy.
- 13:15But I wouldn't, I I Because you sold the birthday post on social media, did you tell him happy birthday?
- 13:20No, I didn't.
- 13:21In and out.
- 13:21I'm inching out there incognito.
- 13:23Like he never knew I was there.
- 13:25Do you have saying a profile, Meredith, did you know what part of stalking is to not make yourself known, right?
- 13:31Yeah.
- 13:31Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 13:33You can't like it.
- 13:34I, I'd have on the, the glasses with the mustache in the nose being like, have you that you can't go to church in Alabama like that?
- 13:40No.
- 13:41Cause it is against the law.
- 13:43That's against the law.
- 13:43Yes.
- 13:44That's crazy.
- 13:44Um, Dun laws.
- 13:46Yes.
- 13:46Oh my goodness.
- 13:47I got, I've got some too.
- 13:49Hell, in Mississippi you're talking about the church, uh, too.
- 13:51Yeah.
- 13:52In Mississippi it's against the law to, um, it disrupt any church service.
- 13:56You can get a fine.
- 13:57Yeah.
- 13:57You can get a i that two.
- 13:59Yeah.
- 13:59It's crazy.
- 14:01Why, I wonder why what, like how much were they disrupting that they needed to Right.
- 14:06Put that in writing.
- 14:06Let's, so many questions with all of these laws.
- 14:08Yeah.
- 14:08Like so many questions.
- 14:09I thought this dumb law was funny.
- 14:11Okay.
- 14:11Or strange, according to one town's laws.
- 14:14And he groomed to be, must prove himself manly.
- 14:17Y'all saw this one too?
- 14:18Yes.
- 14:18And it makes no sense.
- 14:19Okay.
- 14:20So he, he either has to hunt and kill six black birds.
- 14:25Or three cows.
- 14:27How is that one or the other?
- 14:28Like three cows?
- 14:30Should it be the other way around or Maybe, but it'd be easier.
- 14:34And I don't, we're gonna get in trouble by the end of Hawaii.
- 14:37I know.
- 14:38But I would think it'd be easier to get the cows.
- 14:40They got trouble Three big cows or six, little two bounders.
- 14:44I is there like, okay, here's my question is, is there ways that you are allowed to go about it and ways you're not?
- 14:53Like, do you have to use like tools?
- 14:56Right?
- 14:58That's a good question.
- 14:59They like a serial killer, like, like kit in the area that you So I'm fine.
- 15:04Like I don't, uh, yeah, that's a good question.
- 15:05I don't have all of your answers.
- 15:07I know these, I have, I'm not even gonna promise I'm gonna research that.
- 15:11Yeah.
- 15:11I just wanna see the reactions of the men when they lay all these dead carcasses in front of their like bride to bee and they're like, Hey honey, will you marry me?
- 15:19Yeah.
- 15:19That's a deal breaker.
- 15:20Sorry buddy.
- 15:21We only got, we only got five black birds and one pigeon, so no, sorry, I'm vegan.
- 15:29Yeah.
- 15:2920 birds right.

- 15:33I did.
- 15:34Um, let's see.
- 15:35You may not fish using an Uzi.
- 15:39Good to know.
- 15:40Good to know.
- 15:41Mississippi law.
- 15:43Wow.
- 15:44Well, I guess with the cattle saying like, you can't steal the cattle because that can invoke a hanging.
- 15:50So to buy the cow and did you, did you know that if you walk a dog in Mississippi, it's illegal for it to not have a diaper on?
- 15:59I did see that and I was like, that's disgusting.
- 16:01Like, no, I, I've changed enough diapers in my life.
- 16:04Yeah.
- 16:05Um, I also have, uh, a dumb criminal.
- 16:09Mm-hmm.
- 16:09Me too.
- 16:10You do too.
- 16:10Heather, were you to find one?
- 16:11I found one.
- 16:12Okay.
- 16:12So I'll, I'll go.
- 16:13You got two.
- 16:14Okay.
- 16:14You do one.
- 16:15Which one do you wanna No, no.
- 16:16It's the same criminal.
- 16:17Same, same crime.
- 16:19Same two criminals.
- 16:20Yep.
- 16:20So, in this situation, um, two Mississippi men tried to scam the, uh, the state lottery.
- 16:26They took a.
- 16:27A losing lottery ticket, Uhhuh for a hundred thousand dollars and they glued the winning numbers at the top.
- 16:34So then they went, turned it in.
- 16:35Yeah.
- 16:36So this was back in 2020.
- 16:37They submitted it to the, um, to the lottery.
- 16:39And then when they, yeah, when they realized what, what happened?
- 16:42They called the police.
- 16:43They're like, Hey, these two guys just did that.
- 16:44So yeah, both of them ended up getting charged with, uh, like tampering with, um, a lottery ticket.
- 16:49Oh my gosh.
- 16:50Yeah.
- 16:50So they asked what was crazy.
- 16:52Is that a felony?
- 16:52Yes.
- 16:53And what was crazy is like combined what they, what their bail ended up in mm-hmm.
- 16:58Was like what they wanted, what they would've won.
- 17:01Oh, 50,000 each.
- 17:05They ended up paying it.
- 17:06That is, that's the about dumb as you get.
- 17:08Yeah, that is, unless it worked well.
- 17:11And some of these are like scan ticket now, like don't you scan?
- 17:16Well that wasn't that long.
- 17:17No, no.
- 17:19I feel it was still like scan.
- 17:23I mean, I feel like it should have been, but I don't, I don't play the lottery a lot.
- 17:26Well he has another one.
- 17:27It's funny.
- 17:28Okay.
- 17:28Just not, you know, one of y'alls, but that's 2014, uh, 30 year old Roger Beasley Jr.
- 17:33He was, um, he was driving, this is you.
- 17:35I'm so sorry.
- 17:36No, no, go ahead.
- 17:36Let's do it.
- 17:37So he was driving down the road, the cops got behind, they were gonna pull him over just for just a normal, uh, traffic violation.
- 17:43And the set up pulling over, he decided to flee from the cops and he ran right into their police academy training.
- 17:49Oh my gosh.
- 17:51Yes.
- 17:51That's pretty funny.
- 17:52That's pretty dumb.
- 17:53Yeah, that's, that's pretty funny.
- 17:54Uh, but that he also had, uh, charges for distributing crack cocaine, resisting grass, careless driving, and his bond was$51,670.
- 18:06Sometimes the numbers that these people come up with, I'm just like, what?
- 18:09Okay.
- 18:10So mine's a little different.
- 18:11It has nothing to do with carbs, it has nothing to do with lottery.
- 18:14Um, has to do with stupid people though.
- 18:17Um, right.
- 18:17So, uh, Nathan Mark Hardy took the love of seafood to a new level while shopping in a grocery store.
- 18:24The 35 year old saw some lobsters and shrimp that he just couldn't resist.
- 18:28So what did he do?
- 18:30He put it in his cargo shorts.
- 18:32That's right.
- 18:32He tried to leave the store with two live lobsters and two bags of.
- 18:38Jumbo shrimp straight into his shorts.
- 18:40That is glove.
- 18:41Lobster.
- 18:42That is a shrimp boil.
- 18:43I do not wanna think.
- 18:44I know.
- 18:46I am glad that it went into the cargo.
- 18:49Short pockets.
- 18:50I'm, I'm assuming, I'm assuming I'm not down his pants like the alligator.
- 18:54Very true, very true, very true.
- 18:57We talk about animals a lot.
- 18:58Speaking of alligator, I don't know if y'all saw this, but I saw it on, uh, TikTok and this just happened.
- 19:03True story.
- 19:03You can look it up.
- 19:04I don't, I don't know where it happened at.
- 19:05No.
- 19:05Florida.
- 19:06Florida.
- 19:06It was definitely Florida.
- 19:07It had to be Florida.
- 19:07So in this, she called 9 1 1 panicking because her 15 year old daughter was at a local swimming hole.
- 19:14I don't know what a local swimming hole in Florida looks like, but me.
- 19:17It's a bathtub like the house with a door block.
- 19:20I'm picturing a swamp in Florida, but Okay.
- 19:23Exactly.
- 19:23So, so, um, she's on this, uh, float and an alligator, like a nine foot alligator, chases her outta the water.
- 19:30She ends up pulling, there was a tree limb that was hanging down.
- 19:32She jumps on the tree.
- 19:33Limb is able to get up in the tree, but now the alligator's like jumping at her, hissing at her, circling her.
- 19:38So the mom called the, uh, police and like was screaming, please get here.
- 19:41Please hurry, please get here.
- 19:42And like, I think it said 30 minutes later, the police arrived.
- 19:44They ended up having to shoot the gator.
- 19:46But, uh, oh my gosh.
- 19:47Yeah.
- 19:47But that's crazy.
- 19:48Just like, yeah, like wrap his mouth.
- 19:50Well, they said too, they said as soon as the deputy went in there to try to wr like do the, uh, like the, what is it?
- 19:55Like the dog pound uses the little leash.
- 19:57Oh yeah.
- 19:57As soon as he went in there to try to get that so that he, um, yeah, he started attacking, like tried to attack the deputy too.
- 20:02So it sounds like, yeah, like maybe I get right.
- 20:05Peace.
- 20:05I was joking.
- 20:07Those Ja sex.
- 20:09STDs.
- 20:09STDs.
- 20:10Yes.
- 20:11Oh my gosh.
- 20:12Poor Jackson.
- 20:13Oh my gosh, y'all, these kids are not smart.
- 20:15So that was mean, but it's the truth.
- 20:20Listen, the.
- 20:23The eighth graders had an opportunity to go to Washington, DC for their trip.
- 20:28Jackson did not go because the only reason he wanted to go was to pick his roommates that he stayed in the hotel with.
- 20:34And I'm like, bro, you do that every weekend at our house.
- 20:36So if they don't wanna pay me$600, they can come for a weekend weekend.
- 20:39Alex, y'all figure out which one you wanna sleep in.
- 20:41That happen.
- 20:42They still came, but I ain't got no money.
- 20:44Um, so she, I was like, Jackson was, yeah, Jackson was looking at his, apparently it's the thing now for all the kids to have each other on like, I guess the snap, they can sell the location, but I think some of'em have each other on life.
- 20:57360.
- 20:58I told you Dylan's girlfriend locked him down on that.
- 21:01Yes.
- 21:02So Jackson's like looked at his one day and he's like, oh, I didn't know that Messiah was in Virginia.
- 21:08And I was like, I see in Virginia.
- 21:10He was like, cuz he went to dc.
- 21:12Now I know that they did have some activities where they went to Virginia, but I was like, well maybe they went to do Virginia, you know, something in Virginia or whatever.
- 21:20He was like, Well, they're in Virginia.
- 21:22And I was like, no baby.
- 21:23They're in Washington, dc And he was like, is that not in Virginia?
- 21:26And I said, Uhuh.
- 21:29Like Uhuh?
- 21:30No, it's not.
- 21:31He might've got that from Juicy because Juicy, look, I'm serious.
- 21:34Juicy had a football tournament.
- 21:36It was a Cam Newton tournament.
- 21:37We didn't make it to it, but it was a Washington DC football tournament and it was held in Springfield, Virginia.
- 21:46Maybe, maybe six is right down the street.
- 21:48No, no.
- 21:49Kim isn't smart either.
- 21:51It's what you're saying, right?
- 21:52I mean, allegedly.
- 21:55So I, I was like, okay, Jackson, it's not there.
- 21:57I said, oh, you're right, it's Maryland.
- 21:59And I'm like, no.
- 22:02And he's like, what state is it in?
- 22:03I'm like, it's not in a state buddy.
- 22:05He's like, it's gotta be in a state.
- 22:06He said, is it in Washington?
- 22:08Oh God.
- 22:09I'm like, no.
- 22:09Okay.
- 22:10So finally, finally, I, I, you know, told him, I was like, it's, it's not a state.
- 22:14It's, but for the people.
- 22:15Yeah, for the people that maybe don't know where, where is it?
- 22:17Exactly.
- 22:17So it is not in a state, it's, it's, it's a atory.
- 22:25Yes.
- 22:26So it's exactly.
- 22:27But thank for those listeners who might not know.
- 22:31Things happen for reminding me to tell them, but it's on the border of like Virginia and Maryland, like it is in that area.
- 22:37The next day is when the kids got outta school early on Thursday and a bunch of'em are meeting to hang out.
- 22:42Yeah.
- 22:43And I was like, Hey, hey, hey.
- 22:44While you're all here, so Anthony, who I've talked about before, can we just go ahead and reveal his real name?
- 22:50What's Village?
- 22:51Anthony.
- 22:52Anthony.
- 22:54And I'm like, okay guys.
- 22:56What state?
- 22:57Disclaimer, Rex, let's have you breathing.
- 23:01I like, okay, what state is dcn ma?
- 23:04Same thing.
- 23:05Maryland, Virginia, whatever.
- 23:07Um, the only one who got it right was Corbin.
- 23:09And he, well, he got it the closest to right?
- 23:12He said it's in a district.
- 23:14Okay.
- 23:14So he had one of the right words.
- 23:16Smart.
- 23:16So none of our kids who are going into high school and they also didn't know how many states there were.
- 23:22A hundred percent.
- 23:23I didn't know either.
- 23:24Like until I was an adult.
- 23:25I don't know what, maybe it was just one of those things that stuck with me then I didn't pay attention in class.
- 23:30That's so cool.
- 23:31Like, like I was not, I was too interested in like what was going on after in the social life if I like that's, think I ever even left like Northtown South one until I lose.
- 23:4117.
- 23:42Like you could still know where I could, what the state is.
- 23:45I also never read a, like a geography book or, so I'm hearing that I was the nerd of the book.
- 23:52You're the nerd, y'all.
- 23:53I was too busy stalking people sports, trying to find the next party.
- 24:01Oh my gosh.
- 24:02I'm, I'm leaving.
- 24:07Thank you for party.
- 24:08So, um, Heather and I have a story.
- 24:11Steph does not know.
- 24:12Okay.
- 24:13We've got a story and before we revealed a story, we have not looked into like we, we've looked into statute of limitations.
- 24:21So there is a chance We're already started.
- 24:23Yeah.
- 24:23Yeah.
- 24:23So, so we're just gonna go ahead and say that we're gonna use our names in this situation instead of who it actually occurred with.
- 24:30Yes.
- 24:31That way it will protect those that we're involved in case there is some kind of.
- 24:36Lawsuit or arrest or, right.
- 24:39So cops come.
- 24:40You wanna start us off, Heather?
- 24:41All right, let's start it off.
- 24:43So, um, our, our sons, our friend Sylvia, our, that we met through football mm-hmm.
- 24:49Basketball also.
- 24:50Um, she had a daughter that she was actually turning 16, but, um, she was celebrating her quinceanera a year later because of, uh, COVID.
- 24:59So they did a year later.
- 25:00Um, so yeah, so that's, uh, it's a Mexican celebration for when girls to turn 15, I think.
- 25:07Yeah.
- 25:07There's entering a woman womanhood.
- 25:09Yes.
- 25:09Yes.
- 25:10And so they had like this whole, like, we were Googling, we were actually texting each other like, Hey, I know I learned that you don't need to do this.
- 25:16I remember Googling was that you're not supposed to wear the same color as the birthday girl because we didn't, they, they take it like, it's so serious.
- 25:21You don't wanna disre be disrespectful at all.
- 25:23Yeah.
- 25:23And that's one, like the biggest things you would be disrespectful is if you wear the same color as the birthday girl.
- 25:27So I texted Marito was like, Hey, we can't wear Royal Blue.
- 25:30Yeah.
- 25:30So, um, so we were, you know, we were so prepared for this party cuz we knew neither one of us had ever been.
- 25:35Right.
- 25:35I've never even heard of this before.
- 25:38And you know, you heard Yeah.
- 25:41I had never, what'd you say?
- 25:42Well, I think, I think I knew it, but maybe through Selena, like watching a movie, Selena?
- 25:46I don't, I don't know.
- 25:46I don't know in my real life knew about it.
- 25:49But, but in your other life, in my like TV life, I think I was up in one or two, but yeah, so the party, I think it was like three or four.
- 25:57We were supposed to get there until something like that.
- 25:59Yeah.
- 25:59So, and it was uber fancy.
- 26:01I'm talking wedding reception.
- 26:03It was beautiful.
- 26:04It was, but I mean like, Not plastic dollar store tablecloths.
- 26:08I mean like fabric tablecloths, chair covers with the pretty bows on the chairs.
- 26:13Very ornate.
- 26:15Yeah.
- 26:15Centerpieces.
- 26:16it was glamorous.
- 26:17It was, it was very glamorous.
- 26:18Yeah, it was beautiful.
- 26:19And then, So, yeah, so we show up, with our sons, super awkward.
- 26:24Like, first of all, they're already mad that they're not able to wear athletic, right?
- 26:28Like, bro, why do I go to wear pants, bro?
- 26:31Why can't, why can't I wear like pants?
- 26:33Just wanna wear my right.
- 26:35Pretty much.
- 26:35So they're, they're aggravated with that.
- 26:37So we're there, and then first of all, we didn't realize that like the birthday girl is gonna be way later.
- 26:44So we were there like probably way too early.
- 26:46And so we're there and we're, we're sitting there.
- 26:49Well, so juicy, uh.
- 26:51Jack said, oh, maybe edit.
- 26:53They're just stared at each other.
- 26:54And like looking at the table, it just like me and Mary stared at each other looking at the table So we're sitting here, we're waiting on the, the family to arrive and they did.
- 27:01And they got her, she was in the.
- 27:03That her mom and grandma and her Aunt Simon, we know nobody other than like us, the the primary family, our table each other.
- 27:11Yeah.
- 27:12And then like the, the birthday girl and her family.
- 27:14Yes.
- 27:14Like they're, this is a full venue and we are lost.
- 27:19Our lost.
- 27:19We don't know what's going on.
- 27:21We're just sitting there like listen to DJ and the, the loud music.
- 27:24And we're like, and we couldn't even talk because we're so close to the vintage and the decoration on our table we're like, sit off like the cups, all that.
- 27:31So it was so fast forward a little bit.
- 27:33The, it gets ready for the time The family gets there, she's on her throne.
- 27:37You know, they get the thing where, um, fancy's chair.
- 27:39Yes.
- 27:39Her.
- 27:40Yeah, she's on her fancy chair and, uh, no, you're looking beautiful.
- 27:43Absolutely gorgeous.
- 27:44She did.
- 27:44Beautiful.
- 27:45her brothers, uh, her cousins, her younger C cousins, they're walking around putting bottles on each table, right.
- 27:53So mm-hmm.
- 27:53He put down four cups for me, Meredith Jackson Juicy, and, uh, these are not small glasses.
- 28:01Let me just throw that there.
- 28:02They were not small glasses.
- 28:04So he, he said, uh, A bottle of Spanish drink in front of us and he and Meredith both look at him and we're like, Hey, you know, what is this?
- 28:13This is alcohol.
- 28:14No, this is not alcohol.
- 28:15This is sparkling water.
- 28:16He was like, the family's the only one What?
- 28:17Cider?
- 28:18Cider.
- 28:18Yes.
- 28:19He was like, the family's the only one allowed to drink alcohol.
- 28:21He was like, the family gets all alcohol.
- 28:23He was like, which makes sense to me.
- 28:24Cuz I was like, okay, that's more expensive.
- 28:25This is cheaper.
- 28:26That makes sense.
- 28:27I do the same thing.
- 28:28Perfect.
- 28:28Mm-hmm.
- 28:29Now remember, let's just backtrack.
- 28:31Mm-hmm.
- 28:32It's us four only sitting in a.
- 28:33Eight seat table.
- 28:34They're speaking a language that none of us understand.
- 28:36We're only white people there.
- 28:37Right.
- 28:38I'm gonna throw that out there too.
- 28:39Absolutely.
- 28:40Like her mom calls us the gringa.
- 28:41Yes.
- 28:41Like she calls us Sat where like the white women.
- 28:44Yes.
- 28:44And so, I mean, it is just, it's, we, we are just really de dependent on everybody else to make sure we are not, and so that, that's what Anthony said and he, and I was like, well, when you know her, give us a little what we're supposed to do.
- 28:58He was like, just watch what everybody else does.
- 29:00He said after, after she answers, he was like, yeah, great advice from a 14 year old.
- 29:04Right.
- 29:04He was like, you'll pour your drinks and then we'll, everybody will toast to the 50 girl and then you'll drink it.
- 29:09We're like, okay, great.
- 29:10I think we asked him like twice or three times, are you probably, are you sure this, this is water, this is salt, whatever, right?
- 29:15Yes, yes.
- 29:15No, it's not alcohol.
- 29:16Okay, great.
- 29:17Perfect.
- 29:18So, no, go ahead.
- 29:19We're sitting there and still awkward.
- 29:21I mean, our boys are literally, I've never seen them like this.
- 29:24I'm sure they're not like this in school, they were nervous and just sitting there.
- 29:27They weren't even talking to, they weren't on their phones, they weren't doing it.
- 29:30They were just like, like staring.
- 29:31Pretty much, pretty much.
- 29:33They're so freaked out.
- 29:34So we poured our drinks, they do the toast, uh, and whatever.
- 29:39And I've not, yeah, I've not taken a sip yet, but Jackson does.
- 29:43And you know, Jackson's a very picky, drinker eater, whatever.
- 29:46He doesn't drink tea, soda, nothing like that.
- 29:48So he took a sip and he was like, or I think he just like maybe got some on his lips and he was like, Ugh.
- 29:53It's like it's rude to not do it, whatever.
- 29:56And I was like, drink the whole thing.
- 29:58So he does.
- 29:59And at the same time, this is.
- 30:06Champagne.
- 30:07So we got the good stuff and I forced my child to drink the good stuff.
- 30:14And it was like a tall, like, was like like a, a big flute.
- 30:17It was a big, it was.
- 30:18And it was full and it was, cause it was only us at the table.
- 30:23It was, so, let's fast forward a little bit to later in the night.
- 30:26Okay.
- 30:26When the dancing starts, the dancing starts.
- 30:29Are they feeling it?
- 30:30Yeah.
- 30:30Oh, so not only when's the dancing, so there's some formal dancing, but it gets to the point where there's, that's what, yeah, the, there's a wardrobe change where the birthday girl goes and changes clothes.
- 30:40Cause she's in the big princess dress.
- 30:42Mm-hmm.
- 30:42So she can get down and party.
- 30:44Yes.
- 30:44She got down and party.
- 30:45So you and I walked outside and we could see in the windows and our boys who I'd been sitting by themselves are all of a sudden leading the con.
- 30:58They had blue like swords.
- 30:59They were like swinging in, I swear.
- 31:03They were like the life of the party.
- 31:05Anthony putting his cousins up there and they're dancing with these beautiful Hispanic girls and they just like out there doing the things and I mean, whatever.
- 31:15Everybody, it was, they were like the life of the party.
- 31:18They were come find.
- 31:19So y'all can tell that they didn't know what those Spanish songs?
- 31:22No.
- 31:22All a sudden they're Hispanic.
- 31:24Those boys are like coming.
- 31:27Oh, Jackson.
- 31:29So that was a year ago, right?
- 31:32A year.
- 31:33A year ago.
- 31:34I'm gonna find out.
- 31:36Kids can stay in touch much easier than we were young.
- 31:39When we were young.
- 31:40You made some dude at the beach.
- 31:41Forget about it.
- 31:42Right.
- 31:43They've got these girls on their snap.
- 31:46They stayed in touch with these girls.
- 31:48Oh.
- 31:48Or the girls are staying in touch with them.
- 31:49I don't know exactly which each direction it goes.
- 31:51This wasn't part of the demise of the girlfriend, was it?
- 31:54No, no, no, no, no.
- 31:58But I'm like, oh my, it was so, it was so bad.
- 32:02It was so bad.
- 32:02At the time, me and marriage were like, oh my God, we're gonna go to jail.
- 32:05Oh my God.
- 32:06The, the defensive and office captain of our football team, and they're, they were, they were, they were.
- 32:13So, and, and technically we did not give alcohol to maters.
- 32:17Right.
- 32:17So I kept hoping we're still safe.
- 32:21We, we were that, that night we did not laugh.
- 32:23I promise you.
- 32:24We were outside, like, we're gonna go to jail.
- 32:26Like, what?
- 32:26Where are we gonna do, we should call our husbands.
- 32:30I was like, I cant.
- 32:31Right.
- 32:31I gave his child booze.
- 32:33Yes.
- 32:34Much better parents than I am, because I would've been like, well, I wave.
- 32:39I'd be like, I'd be join him.
- 32:42So by time we like walked up the side of the building.
- 32:45And get back in to like the front where we can see through the window.
- 32:52It was, we tried to get them outta there before it started showing like, yeah, it didn't, it was so then we just sat on the outside and watched and all unfold.
- 33:01And it was so funny because we were also like, the people near us, they were, they had like balls of tequila and we were like, please keep away from the keys.
- 33:09It was hilarious.
- 33:10Cause I can see at this point they'll be like, So bad.
- 33:17You know, for the longest we didn't like this story, stayed chosen up here.
- 33:22Right here.
- 33:23Like I, we didn't even tell the mom of the first girl.
- 33:26Did the boys know?
- 33:27Like they, yes.
- 33:27Okay.
- 33:27Like, oh yeah.
- 33:28They knew, they knew that night.
- 33:29Like as soon as it happened, we were like, that's alcoholic.
- 33:31We, we both were like, like poking on our drinks to try to, but we couldn't stop'em because they, they downed it like that fast so that it was like medicine.
- 33:39They were just trying to get it in.
- 33:41We were yelling at him.
- 33:43I know I yelled at him.
- 33:44I don't remember if you did, but No, I don't, I don't remember that part.
- 33:47I do like, don't be rude.
- 33:48Yeah, yeah.
- 33:49So anyway.
- 33:49Yeah, but it was, it was, you wanna hand me my mom with a year certificate now I know.
- 33:53And I'll tear in half a shirt with Heather.
- 33:56Was that you didn't do it intentionally?
- 33:58No.
- 33:59Didn't pass on that one.
- 34:00Not at all.
- 34:00But Dylan's teacher came over after school one day, like she was picking something up from the house.
- 34:06And um, so we were sitting at the table talking and.
- 34:10It was his teacher from the year before.
- 34:11So Dylan was like, oh my gosh.
- 34:12Mm-hmm.
- 34:13You know, he loves all his teachers.
- 34:15Yeah.
- 34:15When he was little.
- 34:16Yeah.
- 34:16Not so much anymore.
- 34:18But, um, so we're talking in, uh, something came up about like wine or something, and that child goes, I tried beer.
- 34:27And I'm like, you did what?
- 34:29Oh my goodness.
- 34:30To his teacher.
- 34:31And I was like, Dylan.
- 34:32And he, he's like, what?
- 34:33And I was like, When he was like, oh, well we had that party, that pool party.
- 34:39And um, I kept bothering dad and so to shut me up, he said, fine, taste it.
- 34:45And then I asked Brandon about it later, and he's like, yeah.
- 34:48He's like, well, you know, beer tastes like until you're older.
- 34:51Like it taste gross.
- 34:52Like, it's not like a fruity drink.
- 34:53He's like, I figured like it would end the conversation.
- 34:56Right.
- 34:56And Dylan, he, I said, what happened?
- 34:58He said, well, Dylan took a sip and went, Hmm, pretty good.
- 35:03Oh my goodness.
- 35:04One sip.
- 35:04And my friend was like, yeah, wasn't like whole flu.
- 35:08No.
- 35:08Oh my gosh.
- 35:09It's funny.
- 35:10But he told his teacher and I'm like, And she's like, don't worry, all the kids have tried it.
- 35:14Like when they're little, I think, yeah.
- 35:16Take a sip.
- 35:17Leave me alone.
- 35:17Yeah.
- 35:18And I was, oh my gosh.
- 35:19That's funny.
- 35:19I was mortified.
- 35:20Yeah, I know.
- 35:21Out of all the people for them just go tell the preacher too.
- 35:24Yeah.
- 35:24Right.
- 35:26We do need to cover our book.
- 35:28Yes.
- 35:28And I don't, I know you, I gotta send this one out.
- 35:30You gonna send this one out?
- 35:31Okay, that's fine.
- 35:32You just sit there in pet res.
- 35:34Um, and we can talk about it.
- 35:35So it was Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney?
- 35:37Yes.
- 35:38Okay.
- 35:38Okay.
- 35:39So, okay.
- 35:40Things have been wrong with Mr.
- 35:41And Mrs.
- 35:42Wright for a long time.
- 35:43When Adam and Amelia went a weekend away to Scotland, which.
- 35:47Scotland like, I wanna go.
- 35:49That's like my first place I wanna go to.
- 35:51Really?
- 35:52Like, I just think it's like, I think it's like, like spooky haunted is what I like envision.
- 35:57See, I like spooky haunted, like lots of fo like creepy stuff.
- 36:01Well, I mean outside of like the Caribbean and all that kind of stuff, like first place I could go that like I have to really fly to get there is gonna move somewhere like that.
- 36:08Okay, so they won the trip to Scotland.
- 36:10It might, uh, be just what the marriage needs.
- 36:12Self-confessed, workaholic and screenwriter.
- 36:15Adam Wright has lived with face blindness his whole life.
- 36:19He can't recognize friends or family or even his own wife with every anniversary.
- 36:22The couple exchanged traditional gifts, paper, cotton, pottery, tin.
- 36:26And each year Adam's wife writes him a letter that she never lets him read until now.
- 36:30They both know this weekend will make or break their marriage, but they didn't randomly win this trip.
- 36:35One of them is lying and someone doesn't want to live happily ever after 10 years of marriage, 10 years of secrets and an anniversary they'll never forget.
- 36:44Good.
- 36:44So good.
- 36:45Yeah.
- 36:46I liked it too.
- 36:47I liked it.
- 36:47So good.
- 36:48So I, one of the things that I really liked about this book was, I mean, I did back, go back and forth with like, some history and, and with all the chapters being about the different cotton tin, whatever.
- 37:00But the whole book itself was just a very short period of time.
- 37:03Like days, yeah.
- 37:04Right.
- 37:05Yeah.
- 37:05So just the trip, it was like, it was the trip, it was the weekend or whatever.
- 37:08Yeah.
- 37:08It was like three days.
- 37:09Like the whole book, the whole book took from, from beginning to end was just so, I like books like that.
- 37:14I feel like they move very fast.
- 37:16Yeah.
- 37:16And this book did that really well.
- 37:19Without giving so much information, you get bored.
- 37:22Yeah.
- 37:22Um, cause sometimes when it's, it's like that, it's just put every word that they can in there.
- 37:26But this one I thought was really good because it did give enough detail, um, and kept my attention.
- 37:31Yeah.
- 37:32Which apparently I'm noticing is a hard thing for me.
- 37:35Saying, okay.
- 37:37How do you live with baseline?
- 37:39Like, I, I, I guess if you're born with it, like you guys don't know any difference.
- 37:42Yeah.
- 37:42But like, I'm trying to picture life, not being able to recognize people and like, I functioning Yeah, I know.
- 37:51I don't, is it a real thing?
- 37:52I don't know.
- 37:52I didn't, I didn't know either.
- 37:54I didn't know, I didn't know if it was a real thing either.
- 37:58And at first I was just thinking like he, everybody looked kind of, Like, you look like you, but he forgets what you look like.
- 38:05Yeah.
- 38:05But then the further we got in the book, it was like, it's just blurred.
- 38:08Yeah.
- 38:08Like it, like you could tell his hair a block, the hair, right.
- 38:10Which is like, like you can see colors, you can see like other details, but just not faces.
- 38:15Like, it's so weird.
- 38:15Yeah.
- 38:15Yeah.
- 38:16I didn't feel, but I didn't really feel how much that tied into the book at first.
- 38:21Yeah.
- 38:21And I was like, it got me again.
- 38:23They always get me at the end.
- 38:25That's not really, that was interesting though.
- 38:28It was interesting though.
- 38:29So I listened to this one.
- 38:31Yeah.
- 38:31Um, oh, me too.
- 38:32You did too.
- 38:32Yeah.
- 38:32And really liked the, uh, narrator.
- 38:36Me too.
- 38:36And there was a part in this book that was really creepy because they're in this Scottish.
- 38:42Castle thing church.
- 38:43And the old church was renovated old baby, and, um, like haunted and stuff.
- 38:48Yeah.
- 38:48So, but she sees a face in the window.
- 38:52Well, I, it, I was getting the dogs ready and I was taking'em on a walk at night and it was dark.
- 38:56And then it's like that.
- 38:57And again, a great narrator.
- 38:59That voice is, there was a face and I was like, oh, by yourself, Lou, it'll be ok.
- 39:04Come back.
- 39:05I freaked myself out.
- 39:07Morgan Freeman will do that too.
- 39:08You, yeah.
- 39:09He's got a great voice too.
- 39:10But just the dramatic pause and stuff.
- 39:12It was really good.
- 39:13I think, think the characters were developed really well and then like the twists with each character Yes.
- 39:18That you, I mean, I didn't see it coming.
- 39:19Right.
- 39:20Um, so I think they, she did so good, um, developing each character.
- 39:26Mm-hmm.
- 39:26Without you knowing that it's the character.
- 39:28Right.
- 39:29Did you pick on really fast up on the, how she was signing the letters?
- 39:33Was, um, Apparently from your face You did not.
- 39:37So apparently with the Oh, your wife?
- 39:40Yes.
- 39:41Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 39:41Okay.
- 39:41Okay.
- 39:42And I was like, how much are we gonna give away?
- 39:44Yeah, okay.
- 39:44Because that took me, like, I was not immediately picking up all the, no, I didn't either.
- 39:48And then would he give away this?
- 39:51I know, I know.
- 39:52But yeah, I, that made sense because you followed it along.
- 39:56I think this is one that I would wanna read again, because now that I know who's who and what's what.
- 40:00Yeah.
- 40:01Well, hold on.
- 40:02So I just, when I was like researching the book a little bit, there's a series, they're, uh, Netflix bought it, but they haven't made it yet.
- 40:09Okay.
- 40:10Um, but then I was like, oh gosh.
- 40:12Like, who are they gonna pick for these characters?
- 40:14I know.
- 40:14It was like in my head, because I can't see the face, I'm like, Well, I can't give it away.
- 40:20I know, I know.
- 40:21It's always your, and like, are they gonna make the character like beautiful or like homely because you can't see her and you Right.
- 40:29You know, and it quote doesn't matter.
- 40:31Yeah.
- 40:31Yeah.
- 40:31I, that's a good question.
- 40:32I don't know.
- 40:33Uh, that is one that I, I either wanna read again or watch it.
- 40:36It was pretty in, it was interesting.
- 40:37It was a good one.
- 40:37I would, yeah, I would totally read it again.
- 40:39Loved it.
- 40:40Uhhuh.
- 40:40I would too.
- 40:41So this is the book that I thought we were reading last week.
- 40:44It's why I was so confused because I started last week's book, which was called I C U.
- 40:50But I had read the synopsis of this book and I, it took me a minute to get my, my trains like on the right track.
- 40:56Yeah.
- 40:57And going in the right direction and all that kind of stuff.
- 40:59Mm-hmm.
- 40:59Um, But it was a good book.
- 41:01Yeah.
- 41:01I, I would read it again.
- 41:02Yeah.
- 41:0210 stars.
- 41:03Nine, nine.
- 41:04I can't give everybody a 10.
- 41:06I can't, I haven't given out a 10 yet, I don't think.
- 41:08Yeah.
- 41:09What'd you give it?
- 41:10I, I could say nine.
- 41:11Like, I I totally would read it again.
- 41:14It was definitely anything.
- 41:15Yeah.
- 41:15And different, yeah.
- 41:16A totally different story.
- 41:17Um, it reminded me a little bit of, um, I don't know if you've ever read J Condra.
- 41:23Creepy, creepy, creepy stuff.
- 41:25Mm.
- 41:25Not in a creepy No.
- 41:27Like I can, it depends on like what kind of creepy, like there's levels of like, you know, like all kinds of twisted, creepy that you can imagine.
- 41:35So I know like we kind of talked about this last week about how this stuff's going on in your life and like it has to come from somewhere.
- 41:41Yeah.
- 41:41For me, the people that make these like super worried like crazy.
- 41:46Mm-hmm.
- 41:46Um, weird movies.
- 41:48Like, do you not think that there is something wrong with these people that are writing it?
- 41:52I mean, maybe.
- 41:53Yeah.
- 41:54Like what was the heck, um, movie?
- 41:57Um, with the little like mannequin guy, not the, I had like the clown dude.
- 42:01Um, on the Tricycle.
- 42:02Yeah.
- 42:02Jigsaw.
- 42:03Yeah.
- 42:03Yeah.
- 42:04Like that movie.
- 42:04Like after I watched that movie I was like, this.
- 42:07Yeah, dude, whoever wrote this needs to like be locked up somewhere.
- 42:10Like the Terrier Juicy and Anthony were like, well, can we watch The Terra too one night when they were in the house?
- 42:16Cause they had just came out.
- 42:16Yeah.
- 42:17I'm like, eh, I started like, like, no, no.
- 42:22See, Dylan loves horror, like, loves horro movies.
- 42:24Like the whole month of October we were watch Avery Horror movie.
- 42:26Yeah.
- 42:27I Creepy or whatever.
- 42:29Like, I like ghosts, like all that.
- 42:30Like, at my job is haunted and so like, I sit Yeah.
- 42:33Like my job, my job is so haunted.
- 42:35Like, there have been several deaths, like years back.
- 42:38First of all there's an, uh, an ancient Indian barrel ground.
- 42:41Like they, they found rock mounds and all that.
- 42:43The formations that they put up over there.
- 42:45Yeah.
- 42:45And so there have been like cardiac arrest deaths.
- 42:48There have been a guy had his brains like knocked out.
- 42:52Uh, there was a homeless guy that went there for shelter and froze death.
- 42:55So they've been like, and, and you can sit there like, I have a spirit box on my phone.
- 42:59And so we'll sit there and talk to'em and they'll tell us like their names and died and, you know, I don't do things that you can't, you can't shoot'em.
- 43:06Yeah.
- 43:07I don't wanna miss one.
- 43:08But you hear like my cousin, she's, she's huge into like, um, paranormal investigation and stuff.
- 43:13So her and one of her friends, they came to my job.
- 43:15We met up at like eight o'clock at night and we went through different part parts.
- 43:18Like in my old office you could hear people walking around and talking up above me and the floors would creak and all that.
- 43:24And so we got like, we got a conversation, no lie.
- 43:27My aunt was down.
- 43:27They're Ghostbusters.
- 43:28Look, my aunt, my aunt was upstairs talking, like yelling you're gonna get outta here.
- 43:33You know you're gonna leave my niece alone.
- 43:35Like she's saying this prayers over me and all this and that.
- 43:38While me and my cousin are downstairs and we had a speaker box on, ex this part's creepy.
- 43:44It came across the speaker box, like words We didn't know.
- 43:47It said fire.
- 43:47We knew that word.
- 43:48Okay, maybe.
- 43:48I'm so sorry.
- 43:51It said, uh, it said fire.
- 43:53It said, um, accident.
- 43:56It said Verne Verne, Virgil.
- 44:00Burner, Virgil, I'm sorry, I don't remember that name.
- 44:03But, so there were, this was the stuff, so while my aunt's up there we're getting these come across the speaker box, so my, my cousin was writing'em down.
- 44:09Mm-hmm.
- 44:09And when my aunt came back down, she was like, Hey.
- 44:11She was like, we were talking to this thing now here, and it's like, sound, we were you, like it said angry.
- 44:15And we could hear my aunt, so we knew she was like loud with the spirit.
- 44:18Mm-hmm.
- 44:19And we were like, were you yelling at?
- 44:20She's like, yes, I'm telling you, you know, you're gonna leave my, my ni my niece alone, blah, blah, blah.
- 44:23And so fast forward, like over the weekend, she was real big into the, who are they?
- 44:29The vae, you know what I'm talking about?
- 44:31Like the moose lodges and stuff.
- 44:32Uhhuh.
- 44:32So she was real big into those.
- 44:34And she would go shoot pool, like especially back.
- 44:36Yeah.
- 44:37So she would shoot pool all the time with these and, um, hang out with all these different like, like older mm-hmm.
- 44:42Veterans, older people, not just men.
- 44:44Right.
- 44:45Trying to make herself like, um, so anyway, so, I've read a story at one of them on Moose lodges over, I think it was Bessemer City, a guy that lived like right on the property.
- 44:56He lived in his camper.
- 44:57It caught fire burned.
- 44:58and his name was whatever had came across the speaker box, y'all.
- 45:01Oh, that's crazy.
- 45:03And so I, I texted my aunt as soon as I saw my aunt, my cousin, I'm like, y'all, hello?
- 45:07And I asked my aunt, I was like, did you know him?
- 45:09She was like, yeah.
- 45:09She was like, he was one of our regulars.
- 45:11Wow.
- 45:11She knew him.
- 45:12And I'm like, oh my gosh.
- 45:13You know, we're sitting here, you're yelling at the spirit to leave me alone.
- 45:15And it's sitting here trying to like, to help us prevent this man's death.
- 45:18And we're like, Hey, go away.
- 45:20So bad.
- 45:21That's crazy.
- 45:22But my dad, like my dad, I'm no lie.
- 45:25My dad died last January, um, last year.
- 45:28And so a couple days after my dad died, I'm in my office at work and like I said, my dad always wore Stetson cologne.
- 45:34Like that was for every Christmas, every every Christmas we, he would get at least three, four bottles of Stetson cologne.
- 45:39We would all like we and horse calendars cuz that's so, I, all of a sudden I'm just sitting there by myself, it's like four or five o'clock in the morning and I just smelled his cologne.
- 45:48Like I smelled the Stetson cologne.
- 45:50And so I was like, okay.
- 45:51So I took my one cell phone that has the speaker box on it.
- 45:53Mm-hmm.
- 45:54Turned it on, just let it like scan the radio frequencies and I had my other one and I was recording my phone like on the table and you hear me say, Hey dad.
- 46:03And then it scans through and then it says, Hey Heather.
- 46:06And it was my dad's voice, like my dad had cancer.
- 46:08And so towards the end with all the radiation and the chemo and everything, he had lost his voice really bad.
- 46:13So he was just barely a whisper.
- 46:14And you hear him like, healthy dad, like say, Hey, that right there that did it for me.
- 46:19That and the fact that like, there's been a couple times that I would be like, all right dad, you know, play me one of your songs.
- 46:24And he'll, it'll play like Neat Loaf or something random.
- 46:26Yeah.
- 46:27Like I knew my dad loved.
- 46:28Wow.
- 46:29But that stuff right there like that, that that's against me.
- 46:31Yeah.
- 46:32Against me and everybody.
- 46:33I listened to it.
- 46:34Cause I, you know, I, you know, right after my, after my dad's death, like it was hard.
- 46:38And so I'm like, yeah, maybe I'm just hearing stuff.
- 46:40But it was clear as day and so I was letting everybody say I do, it's at home.
- 46:44I put it, I took it off my cell phone.
- 46:46Okay.
- 46:46Because we got balled out our company, so I didn't know if they were gonna make me turn my phone back.
- 46:48Yeah.
- 46:49But I have it at home.
- 46:50I'll record it off my computer at home.
- 46:51I'll let y'all hear it.
- 46:52But you can hear, you can see everybody that I, I didn't even know my dad.
- 46:55Yeah.
- 46:55I've slept and listen to him.
- 46:56They're like, oh my God.
- 46:57It says, Hey Heather.
- 46:58And then like my, my mom, my aunt, my brothers, everybody that's heard, it's like, yeah, that's Dad.
- 47:03Like gets his voice pre-cancer.
- 47:05Mm-hmm.
- 47:06It was my dad's healthy voice, so.
- 47:07Wow.
- 47:08Yeah.
- 47:08That's crazy.
- 47:09That is crazy.
- 47:10Yeah.
- 47:10But you say in that made me think of something else.
- 47:13You were talking about his cologne.
- 47:14Yeah.
- 47:15That's one thing in that book that they were talking about smells.
- 47:17Mm-hmm.
- 47:18Like he could recognize people by smells if he couldn't recognize by face.
- 47:21I guess if, you know, you don't have like the scents, all your other senses are heightened.
- 47:26Exactly.
- 47:26Make up for it.
- 47:27Yeah.
- 47:28Would you not be voice though?
- 47:31Unless like there's Oh, your other senses should be heightened.
- 47:34I didn't read the bullet.
- 47:35Want to now?
- 47:37Um, so yeah.
- 47:38Really good.
- 47:39Really good.
- 47:39I thought so.
- 47:40Yeah.
- 47:40Yeah.
- 47:40Um, so next, and I've already started listening to this one.
- 47:43I just finished it today.
- 47:44Did you?
- 47:45I did.
- 47:45Okay.
- 47:46It's totally different than like anything we've read recently.
- 47:48It's like a, it's like a good beach read.
- 47:50Yes.
- 47:50So it is called Regrets Only by Erin Duffy.
- 47:53Yes.
- 47:53Um, and as always, our book lists that are on our social medias Yes.
- 47:59Um, that is posted there.
- 48:00And, uh, we're working on our next one.
- 48:02So if you do have recommendations on a book, anybody listening, let us know so we can add them.
- 48:06I do have some people that have messaged me, so we're add getting those.
- 48:09Okay.
- 48:09Nice.
- 48:09Some recommendations Yeah.
- 48:10To the list.
- 48:11Good, good.
- 48:12Um, yeah, this one is definitely nothing like what we've been reading.
- 48:15Yeah.
- 48:16It's a nice switch.
- 48:17There's no murder.
- 48:18Yes.
- 48:19Which, not that I'm opposed to that, I don't mind reading it, but it's nice sometimes to Yes.
- 48:23Just change gears.
- 48:24It's, it's a pallet cleanser.
- 48:25Very much so.
- 48:27Very much so.
- 48:28Oh, and dumb law.
- 48:29Let's do Louisiana next.
- 48:30Okay.
- 48:30Cause we hadn't done that one yet.
- 48:32All right.
- 48:32Dumb law, dumb crab for louisianna.
- 48:34Okay.
- 48:34Um, so yes, I did add a link on our Facebook pages to a sports broad that I was interested in getting and I got it and it looks amazing.
- 48:45Not on, so it's got all these crisscrosses in the bag.
- 48:51Yeah, Lord.
- 48:52And I was scared I was gonna get tangled up, but to be very, very honest, it was easier to put on than any other sports brother really had.
- 48:59Cause the way that the, um, they just had a lot more give, but because of that, it wasn't very supportive.
- 49:04Oh.
- 49:05And with me being a bigger autistic girl, yeah.
- 49:07I need something that's, that's whatever.
- 49:09But I did like the way that I could get it on easy and it felt good on, like, it was a comfortable, it was, um, Like not too tight, not too loose.
- 49:19It had good support, but it just did.
- 49:21Cause the straps just were a little, um, looser.
- 49:26It was not your favorite.
- 49:28My favorite.
- 49:29So I'll still keep it and wear it to, you know, just not to, but it'd probably be like a good like yoga bra or something like that.
- 49:36Still like workout, not uh, yes.
- 49:39But I mean, let's be honest, I don't really do vigorous workouts anyways.
- 49:43We'll probably be okay to keep, but it, it's probably not one to like jump up and down the stands.
- 49:47No, no.
- 49:48Don't.
- 49:48I would not wear it until a sports game thinking it was gonna do its job.
- 49:52It did have three of the, the straps on either side that crossed.
- 49:55So it did, if I did pop one strap, add some reinforcement.
- 49:59But it was, it was, it was so strange.
- 50:01I dunno if y'all have ever felt this way, but sometimes putting on like a porch bar or something like that, I almost get claustrophobic.
- 50:07Yeah.
- 50:07It, because you try to put it and you.
- 50:10Like trying to pull it right and get in it and get yourself situated, all of that.
- 50:15It's, it's a lot.
- 50:16So this one went on and off easily.
- 50:18Um, nice.
- 50:19And it was a nice soft material.
- 50:22But not, not for a vis workout.
- 50:25I mean, how many stars?
- 50:27Well, I'd say I'd give it an eight.
- 50:32You're too generous with the stars, are you?
- 50:35Uh, well, I am apparently like Facebooks.
- 50:38Super buyer because I get targeted with everything.
- 50:41Every ad, like every other thing is an ad.
- 50:44And I got sucked into the bodysuit, like the viral.
- 50:48Oh.
- 50:49So it hasn't come yet.
- 50:50Okay.
- 50:50I ordered it.
- 50:51I ordered like a three pack.
- 50:53Okay.
- 50:53So we will see if it really snatched you.
- 50:55Looks smashed.
- 50:58Are they one size fits all?
- 50:59No, they have like small those words.
- 51:02Good.
- 51:03So yeah, like I think like small is like up to 160.
- 51:07Medium was like up to like two 40 or something.
- 51:10A wide range per each size.
- 51:13No, but I mean like the, like they're like this big and I'm like, and what does that.
- 51:21Where does that space?
- 51:23It goes, it goes here and here pushes the other direct.
- 51:28So I was walking with my mom and I was, she's going on, um, a cruise, so I'm like, well, when they comment, you can try it.
- 51:33Like she's Yeah.
- 51:33Yeah.
- 51:34Smaller.
- 51:35And, um, but she's like, you know, as all wants to be more smashed.
- 51:39Right.
- 51:40So I said, well, you can try it.
- 51:42And, um, she's like, it's, but like it's gotta come out somewhere.
- 51:45Yeah.
- 51:46Where does it like it?
- 51:47It's gonna pop out.
- 51:48The box will pop out.
- 51:50Well, hopefully it'll pop out the top right.
- 51:53Yeah.
- 51:54I cannot wait to hear what you said.
- 51:56Yeah.
- 51:56So once I get it, we can definitely chat about that one.
- 51:59Yeah.
- 51:59Okay.
- 52:00Cool.
- 52:00We can, we can do a, a, a review live.
- 52:04That sounds great.
- 52:05That sounds great.
- 52:06Awesome.
- 52:07Um, so the, the sports bra, I give it a, a retract and give it the six.
- 52:12Yeah.
- 52:13Cause look good.
- 52:13Wash is good.
- 52:14Yeah.
- 52:14All that kind of stuff, but it just wasn't supportive enough for me.
- 52:17Right, right.
- 52:18That doesn't maybe, maybe it's like a list.
- 52:20Yeah.
- 52:21Dusty.
- 52:22Yes.
- 52:23That part out.
- 52:25Yeah.
- 52:25But be maybe a little smaller.
- 52:26That's one in the B reel.
- 52:28Boy, maybe a little smaller chested.
- 52:31Yes.
- 52:32Or maybe somebody, uh, not as old as meme, needing as much support.
- 52:37So I'm sure these, these 105 pound skinny teenage girls, that'd be just right on.
- 52:42Love it.
- 52:42Yeah.
- 52:43So a witch.
- 52:44Have you seen, did they like, let them run around at the high school, like track and stuff?
- 52:49Were you, were you out there, were you watching like the, like just sports bra?
- 52:52No, no.
- 52:53When we were in school, like even like the girls that did like the sports afterwards, they still had to be all the way cooked.
- 52:57Yeah.
- 52:57Yeah.
- 52:58Like, like when our boys were out there the first week of, for both weightlift and football and stuff, like the, the track girls were still there.
- 53:04And like you're talking like, like.
- 53:06No, I mean, it was basically like bathing suits and, and Wonder Jackson wanted to go Yeah, I thoughts really committed to, I'm not, I'm not saying that they were, I'm not saying it like, like you couldn't, they weren't exposed like butt cheeks, things like that.
- 53:20Right.
- 53:20I just couldn't believe it.
- 53:22Like, and, and I'm talking like 21 years ago I graduated, but back then, like, you couldn't even get like the football games unless you're, you know, the shorts and all that were lower than the fingertips and mm-hmm.
- 53:31It's like things have changing a lot now.
- 53:33Yeah.
- 53:34So glad I have a boy.
- 53:35Yeah, absolutely.
- 53:37Yeah.
- 53:37But even Maxie, like when she was in school, I remember there were times that she got sent home, like they didn't, like her shoulders were showing, or they said that, you know, you could see a little bit of rebel and so it's kinda, yeah, those girls are like, on that note, I'm gonna tell a story.
- 53:52No, no.
- 53:52Go for that.
- 53:55It's crazy.
- 53:56All right, so next week, the book is regrets Only.
- 54:00Regrets Only.
- 54:01Okay.
- 54:01And then our state is Louisiana, Louisiana.
- 54:05Okay.
- 54:05That'll be fun.
- 54:06Yeah.
- 54:06And we'll do the Snoop Dogg cookbook review and the snatch body suit review.
- 54:12Hopefully your out, it's probably home from China, so who knows what, we'll see if it does what it's supposed to.
- 54:17She might be wearing it in the podcast.
- 54:20I'll go put it on bathroom and see a live review.
- 54:23Right.
- 54:24I love it when we, when we add videos to Paton.
- 54:28Yeah, absolutely.
- 54:29Which is fill of thought.
- 54:30People want the videos.
- 54:31That's crazy.
- 54:33I wouldn't, I mean, I can see, but I can't see, I I know, I know.
- 54:37I wouldn't wanna be like looking at me.
- 54:40I don't, we're awkwardly keep looking at the camera like, oh, it's there.
- 54:44Like when I'm editing and like looking at like, it's so much funnier to see the reactions of the face than just try to just to hear it, hear it.
- 54:52So I laugh the whole time I'm editing.
- 54:54Yeah.
- 54:54That's funny.
