  Welcome to Rick and not Michelle chick.
• 0:02
  I'm not Michelle Chick. And I'm Rick.
• 0:05
  Welcome. Howdy.
• 0:05
  Come on in. Kick, kick shoes off and let's
• 0:09
  chat. OK, So I really, really want to
• 0:13
  hear your review of the Superman movie.
• 0:15
  First off, did you go to the early showing or did you wait
• 0:19
  for Megan? Because that's critical
• 0:21
  information. You did wait for her.
• 0:24
  No, I did not. So.
• 0:26
  No. No.
• 0:26
  But she knew. But she knew.
• 0:27
  She knew. So I had.
• 0:28
  I had talked to her couple days before and said, you know,
• 0:32
  traditionally I go on the first showing of any superhero movie.
• 0:35
  Now, I have not done it in a long time because Marvel hasn't
• 0:37
  been that good. But I did go see Super.
• 0:40
  I did go see Superman Thursday before it opened.
• 0:43
  And then and then I did go see it again on Friday with Megan.
• 0:47
  Yes. Yeah.
• 0:48
  So I've I've got a couple times. OK.
• 0:51
  And your? What are your thoughts?
• 0:53
  Well, I, I think what I think is it is the best comic book
• 0:59
  accurate movie you're going to find.
• 1:02
  So if so, if you're a huge fan of the comic books and
• 1:05
  especially of what they call the Silver Age, you're going to love
• 1:08
  this Superman. He's not this Superman is not
• 1:12
  all powerful. I mean, he's still powerful, but
• 1:15
  he's not at that extreme to where he can push a planet with
• 1:18
  a pinky and he's on. So he gets I I think I it's
• 1:22
  interesting and and again, spoiler talk, but I mean, he
• 1:25
  spends most the he spends most the movie getting his getting
• 1:27
  his butt kicked. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:29
  But but at the end you get that heroic, you know, he puts it all
• 1:34
  together and here comes Superman.
• 1:36
  There's a lot of great cameos. They did really good with the
• 1:39
  Green Lantern hot girl, the different DC superheroes that
• 1:43
  are in there sprinkled in. For me, if if it's so funny, I
• 1:48
  would buy that movie today for 50 bucks.
• 1:50
  Absolutely. It was that good.
• 1:52
  So I'm going to put that one probably for me in my top three
• 1:56
  of all time of of just superhero movies and what made me think
• 2:00
  about it here. So as I was watching it,
• 2:02
  Michelle, I remember 1978 and my very first Superman movie, which
• 2:08
  was Christopher Reeve. So I know everybody else loves
• 2:10
  Star Wars and all that, but for me, superheroes was my jam.
• 2:15
  And to see and to see Christopher Reeve and Superman.
• 2:17
  So for me, I was funny. I was talking to a Co worker.
• 2:20
  He was like, well, this has got to be your favorite Superman
• 2:22
  movie. Well, I'm like, well,
• 2:24
  nostalgically I got to put Superman #1 because when you're
• 2:28
  8 years old and how you view the world and then and then how you
• 2:33
  view view the world as a middle-aged person is totally
• 2:35
  different. So at, at 8 years old, you're in
• 2:38
  this oddest, whoa, you know, I had never seen that.
• 2:42
  Now I've seen a billion superhero movies.
• 2:45
  So it wasn't like, and it's still I, I, it was entertaining.
• 2:49
  I loved it. My son and I went.
• 2:51
  He has not seen it yet. So I don't do any.
• 2:53
  I don't want to do any spoilers, but he was talking, we're gonna
• 2:56
  go in a couple weeks, but he was talking about well, I hope he
• 2:59
  hopes it's woke. It's woke.
• 3:01
  And so, so I don't, I personally, I think there was
• 3:04
  some analogies in there, but I don't think it's.
• 3:07
  I mean, Fox News was calling it woke.
• 3:09
  Yeah, right. So, so there aren't.
• 3:11
  There aren't. Necessarily.
• 3:13
  Yeah, there there are analogies in there.
• 3:15
  There's no doubt there is you know, there is some analogies,
• 3:18
  but I mean what I what I say it's on the nose now.
• 3:21
  Now AJ my Co worker disagree with it goes it's on the nose.
• 3:24
  I'm like, well, I I didn't feel that.
• 3:27
  And he's like, oh, it's on the nose it's right there in your
• 3:29
  face. So I will I will 1 little bit of
• 3:32
  spoiler talk for me, which it really hit me at an emotional
• 3:36
  core by the fact I will do 1 little bit of have you seen up
• 3:40
  Michelle? No, but Shaylee went to go see
• 3:43
  it. Her friend made her go see it
• 3:45
  because her friend likes one of the actors.
• 3:47
  And then I don't even know which one it is.
• 3:48
  And I I think that the only superhero movie she's ever seen
• 3:53
  is probably The Avengers. And she said it's pretty good.
• 3:55
  She liked it. She oh good.
• 3:57
  She was kind of dreading going to see you because I don't think
• 3:59
  she knew anything about Superman, but yeah, she enjoyed.
• 4:01
  It I will I will say it's two hours and it goes so fast that I
• 4:05
  mean it's just a rapid fire thing.
• 4:07
  So and it's and it's funny and you got crypto the Super dawg.
• 4:11
  I mean there's a lot of great things that steal the steal the
• 4:13
  show. But I will say this for for me,
• 4:17
  the best part of the movie, very, there's a twist in the
• 4:21
  movie to where so again, as you know, his story rocketed earth
• 4:25
  as a as a little baby, the Krypton blew up.
• 4:29
  And so he's in the fortunes of solitude at the very beginning
• 4:32
  of the movie and they're replaying a message from his
• 4:36
  real parents. So Jorrell and Laura, his real
• 4:39
  parents. And so, but half the messages is
• 4:41
  garbled. He doesn't know what the other
• 4:43
  half of the messages. So all the time he's there, he's
• 4:47
  like he's like my parents said, you know that I was I was here
• 4:50
  for good. I'm here for good.
• 4:52
  I'm here to help people. They love me.
• 4:55
  And and that was playing there. Well, Lex Luthor breaks into the
• 4:58
  fortress and steals the message and unguardable the end parts of
• 5:04
  the message. And you discover what she uses
• 5:07
  against Superman in the movie that his parents at the very end
• 5:10
  says, we love you now. We want you to conquer.
• 5:14
  We want you to be a conqueror. Use your power, you know, use
• 5:17
  your strength, be a conqueror, take many wives, a harem, all
• 5:21
  these different things. So Superman at the start of this
• 5:24
  movie has believed that his parents were benevolent, you
• 5:28
  know, and, and that that that he was there for to do good.
• 5:32
  And so through the movie, he's doubting himself and can't, you
• 5:35
  know, trying to get his head straight in that situation.
• 5:38
  And so and, and it's interesting because this Superman is 30
• 5:42
  years old. He's not middle-aged or tonight
• 5:43
  he's like, he's still young. And we, and when we were 30 and
• 5:46
  come on, when we were 30, we still didn't have anything, not
• 5:49
  everything figured out. And having life experience.
• 5:52
  Yeah, so it was interesting through the movie, his parents,
• 5:55
  his his adopted parents or the the kids would try to call him
• 5:58
  and he cut he was he was never rude, but he kind of throw he
• 6:01
  would kind of, you know, fluff him off if that made sense.
• 6:03
  You're like, oh, that that that's your parents did it.
• 6:06
  So again, this message comes out, Lex Luthor use it against
• 6:09
  and the whole world turns against Superman.
• 6:11
  But at the end of the movie, as he wraps up, as he succeeded,
• 6:15
  did what he was supposed to do, they say, hey, play, play that
• 6:18
  message from your parents. And guess who the parents are
• 6:23
  now? It's the it's the, it's the
• 6:25
  foster, it's the Kents, it's the foster family.
• 6:29
  So that's how they kind of yeah, because and and they have a big
• 6:32
  middle in the middle of the movie.
• 6:33
  He's talking to Paul Kent and and and Paul Kent is like, yeah,
• 6:37
  your choices make you basically. And you've seen that the TV
• 6:40
  trailer makes you the man of who you are.
• 6:43
  So. So that was a nice twist in the
• 6:45
  movie to where, and I believe this really happens to a lot of
• 6:49
  kids that have been abandoned or don't know their real parents.
• 6:52
  They have an idol a lot. Oh my gosh, an idyllic vision of
• 6:56
  who they think their parents are.
• 6:59
  So, so having been a foster kid and been pushed into the system,
• 7:03
  it's like, I've talked about this a lot.
• 7:05
  I, I knew my biological parents. I, I mean, I love my biological
• 7:09
  parents, but I, but I did not have, because of what happened.
• 7:13
  I did not have that emotional attachment because I wasn't
• 7:19
  really raised by them. I was, I wasn't raised by them.
• 7:23
  So my morals or my values and where did, where did, where did
• 7:27
  my work ethic come from? Well, it came from my foster
• 7:30
  parents. And so for me, that direct
• 7:32
  correlation, that great, that great twist to where at the end
• 7:36
  of the movie and then, and then they, and then the great, they
• 7:39
  have a big, you know, they show all of his kid movies, his baby
• 7:42
  movies and shows you how loving, how loving the adopted parents
• 7:46
  are, right? So for me, that was the best
• 7:49
  part of the twist. If you're a, if you're a foster
• 7:50
  kid or you're a, or a kid who doesn't know who their parents
• 7:53
  are, it, it was a, it was a neat for me, took me right back to
• 7:58
  being 8 years old. And I, I even wrote about that.
• 8:01
  It's so funny. I even in my book, if you read
• 8:03
  my book, there's a there's a journal passage for my foster
• 8:07
  mom in her own. I only have a couple things that
• 8:10
  she wrote in her journal about me, but one of them was Virgil's
• 8:14
  going to go see Superman and that and so I know exactly
• 8:17
  March, it was March 8th, 197078. So I know exactly, you know, or
• 8:22
  79. So I know exactly when that that
• 8:24
  journal entry is in. So I put that in the book, not
• 8:27
  before. I haven't seen this Superman
• 8:28
  movie, but, but her writing in her journal about how I was so
• 8:32
  excited to go see Superman and, and just so in my book, there
• 8:36
  are some, there's a couple journal entries that my mom made
• 8:39
  that correlate with some of the stories that I told.
• 8:42
  So Joe's blue ribbons in there. There's a correlation, her
• 8:45
  journal entry and then my so you can see me flesh out that real
• 8:48
  story. So for me, if you're a foster
• 8:50
  kid, if you're somebody thinking, I mean, cuz that's the
• 8:55
  hard reality for kids. That is the hard reality for a
• 8:58
  kid who's been abandoned that they really put the parent
• 9:02
  that's not there on a pedestal and they really think that that
• 9:06
  parent, that parent can't do any wrong.
• 9:07
  And that parent may not be may not be that great.
• 9:11
  And you've there's a great foster kid movie called instant
• 9:14
  family with with Mark Wahlberg and and Isabella Merced and you
• 9:21
  got to watch it. It's wonderful where she has she
• 9:24
  just my mom's coming back for me.
• 9:26
  It's going to be perfect and my mom really wants me and all
• 9:29
  these things go on and then and in anyway, it's a great movie.
• 9:33
  So for this, for me, the Superman.
• 9:35
  I mean, you can talk about the woke stuff, sure, but for me,
• 9:38
  that correlation, that correlation between and and to
• 9:42
  the movie, he's blown off his his foster parents, he's blowing
• 9:45
  them off and has this, you know, my my real parents, my
• 9:48
  biological parents. And then at the end of the
• 9:50
  movie, you realize that that those who gave him the values,
• 9:54
  those who gave him the morals, and it wasn't even them.
• 9:58
  He's still in control. You know, 'cause my foster mom
• 10:00
  Pearl used to always say, Virgil, every action has a
• 10:04
  consequence. Every action has a consequence.
• 10:07
  So even, and it was interesting enough, I got arrested in high
• 10:12
  school. I don't, I don't ever talk about
• 10:13
  it. I don't, I don't ever talk about
• 10:15
  it 'cause I'm ashamed of it and embarrassed by it, but I don't.
• 10:18
  But I didn't read. This story.
• 10:20
  What's that? I don't think you've told me
• 10:22
  this. Story No one knows, no one
• 10:23
  knows. So no, no one knows.
• 10:25
  But and I don't and I don't like to talk about it.
• 10:27
  I but I've only been arrested one time in my entire life.
• 10:31
  It was it was expunged off my record.
• 10:33
  So technically it doesn't exist. And I remember when mom picked
• 10:36
  me up at the police station and I was bawling, I was crying and
• 10:42
  I was and my dad had already passed away.
• 10:44
  My foster dad had already passed away.
• 10:46
  And so I'm sitting there talking to my foster mom and I'm like,
• 10:49
  well, Dad's looking down. He's so ashamed.
• 10:51
  He's so embarrassed. You know, I'm so humiliated.
• 10:55
  And you know, because I always, you know, to me, you can say it.
• 10:58
  I come off as holier than thou sometimes.
• 11:00
  Come on. You can say, you can say it.
• 11:03
  You know, a lot of people think I'm a lot of people think I'm a
• 11:05
  goody goody. I mean, I think that's a fair
• 11:08
  statement. I think to some degree, you know
• 11:12
  we. Because I don't party.
• 11:14
  I don't party. I mean, you know what I'm
• 11:16
  saying? If you.
• 11:16
  Don't drink alcohol. No, you never have.
• 11:18
  No, I don't at all. I just no, no.
• 11:20
  And and I try. I'm not perfect as far as from,
• 11:24
  but I do try to be a pretty good person.
• 11:28
  Right. For the most part.
• 11:29
  So mom picks me up. She's talking to me and I'm and
• 11:32
  I'm crying, ready for the lecture.
• 11:34
  And she goes and she just literally goes.
• 11:36
  Everybody falls down. Everybody makes mistakes.
• 11:38
  Virgil, what you do going forward is what defines you.
• 11:43
  If you continue this behavior, you're going to, you know,
• 11:45
  you're going to reap what you sow.
• 11:47
  And so those are the little things that that every action
• 11:50
  has consequences. So, yeah.
• 11:52
  So that movie for me took me right back to 8 years old and
• 11:56
  the foster parent, the biological correlation.
• 11:59
  And then outside of that, it's a fun movie.
• 12:01
  Go see it. I'm going to see it.
• 12:02
  I'm going to go see it again with Logan in a couple weeks.
• 12:04
  And I'd I'd buy it today. So it just really has, it has a
• 12:08
  lot of great messages in there and, and maybe there's some
• 12:12
  woke, maybe there's some woke messages.
• 12:14
  The best part of it, the best part of the Superman movie is,
• 12:19
  is being a good person. Right.
• 12:22
  That that is Superman to me. And I and I used to people and
• 12:26
  now, now I can honestly answer the question.
• 12:28
  So for years I've been a big Superman fan or a superhero fan
• 12:31
  for 40 plus years. I can finally answer the
• 12:34
  question because everybody asks me who's your favorite
• 12:36
  superhero? And I always say, well, Superman
• 12:38
  was my first, but I like them all.
• 12:40
  No, no, I can, I can quantify today that for me, Superman is
• 12:44
  my my favorite because he's my first.
• 12:46
  And then just the just the be a good person.
• 12:51
  He's a big Boy Scout man. Love Batman for different
• 12:55
  reasons. Batman, yeah.
• 12:57
  Everybody wants to be Batman. Everybody wants to be.
• 12:59
  Everybody wants to be Batman. I get it, you know, but but, but
• 13:03
  for me, it's like, because even in the movie, they make such a
• 13:06
  great point to see Superman saving a squirrel out of a tree,
• 13:10
  saving children, all these different things that really
• 13:13
  exemplifies who Superman is. And And so Batman, Batman might
• 13:19
  let you die. Yeah, he'll do his best to save.
• 13:23
  Depend on the day for. Batman, it does depend on the
• 13:25
  day and and as I always say, who's writing it?
• 13:29
  Who's writing the story? Because remember, these are
• 13:31
  fictional characters. So it's, it goes back to that
• 13:34
  big joke of like, well, can Batman beat Superman?
• 13:36
  Well, who's writing it? The writer decides if I decide
• 13:40
  that, yeah, so, so if it's going to be an evil Superman, it'll be
• 13:43
  an evil Superman. But they really did a great job
• 13:45
  and and kids and family should go see it and you and I think
• 13:49
  you and Jay would enjoy it a lot.
• 13:50
  And and you know, I'm going to go see with Logan because I
• 13:54
  really want to see if he can pick out the woke message in it
• 13:57
  and see if he I'm sure. I'm sure he will.
• 13:59
  I was not woke. I was not woke enough.
• 14:02
  Like we talked about last week, I feel like everybody's just
• 14:05
  labeling wokeness with whatever they don't agree with.
• 14:09
  Like why can't you just go watch this movie, enjoy this movie and
• 14:13
  not think anything of like it's woke or it has this message or
• 14:17
  that message. Just go have a good time.
• 14:19
  That's what we used to do when we were younger.
• 14:21
  It's a. Popcorn movie.
• 14:22
  There wasn't, no. Hidden message or trying to
• 14:25
  decode what it is, or the conspiracy or you know, just go
• 14:29
  watch it and have fun. Shoot.
• 14:30
  Well, the and and and if you want to, if if you want to go
• 14:33
  see it, I'm sure Shaylee said the dog stole the show.
• 14:37
  Did she not say the dog stole the show?
• 14:39
  I mean, you know, she loves animals.
• 14:41
  And so I had told. Her.
• 14:43
  I told her because she it was kind of driving going especially
• 14:45
  after she heard it was over 2 hours and I go oh don't worry,
• 14:49
  there's a dog in it, you'll love it.
• 14:52
  Super dog, a super dog. So the dogs fly.
• 14:55
  You know, there's all these there's all these great scenes.
• 14:57
  It's it that's also what makes this movie so much fun is James
• 15:01
  Gunn said he took in a stray dog, took in a stray dog.
• 15:05
  And so this, well, Crypto was a real dog in in comic books, but
• 15:08
  he modeled it after his, after his rescue.
• 15:11
  And he said when he first got this rescue, he ate his, he ate
• 15:14
  his computer, ate his shoes, destroyed the house.
• 15:17
  And so and so that's what made him want to write this story.
• 15:20
  He said, well, what if the dog, what if my dog really had
• 15:22
  superpowers? And so he wrote Crypto in the
• 15:26
  Superman movie because Crypto does exist in Superman.
• 15:29
  And the dog is he's he's a dog, but he's destroying.
• 15:33
  I mean, he's destroying crap as a dog would.
• 15:36
  So. So yeah, there was some, I'm
• 15:37
  sure there was. There'll be some great scenes
• 15:39
  that you'll actually enjoy about it is because.
• 15:42
  Yeah, if you've ever had a an unruly dog that you can't keep
• 15:45
  control of, this is that. It's not.
• 15:48
  Yeah, because he because they they do a great thing where it's
• 15:50
  he the dog is average intelligence for the dog.
• 15:53
  It just happens to have superpowers.
• 15:56
  So it so it fetches toys, but it doesn't fetch toys like you
• 15:59
  know, or different things that it does.
• 16:00
  So, you know, it breaks through walls and you know all these
• 16:04
  different things. So I think you'll love it a lot.
• 16:05
  So I definitely highly recommend it.
• 16:08
  Didn't mean to get so much into Superman but I was love the
• 16:11
  movie and really love the correlation with the foster
• 16:13
  parents. Right, well, I'm so glad I I
• 16:16
  feel like now I'll probably cry because Will.
• 16:20
  When we get to. That.
• 16:21
  Part There's some scenes, yeah, yeah, there's some crazy scenes
• 16:24
  and Lex Luther is evil, so it's good.
• 16:26
  You'll love it. I think was Holt plays Lex
• 16:28
  Luther. He's great.
• 16:30
  OK. All right, we'll go see it.
• 16:32
  Let's switch gears to the Emmy nominations.
• 16:35
  Yeah. What did you think of them
• 16:37
  today? Well, one of my favorite shows,
• 16:39
  I'm looking right now. I love this new show on the WB
• 16:42
  called the Pits. So and I, I so Noah Wyler.
• 16:47
  I love Noah Wyler. Yeah, he's, he's lead actor.
• 16:50
  He's he's in there an outstanding drama series.
• 16:53
  But there's a lot, there's a lot of great shows.
• 16:56
  I will admit some of these I have not seen.
• 16:58
  I mean, I do know a lot about them.
• 17:00
  Oh. OK, well I do watch Severance.
• 17:02
  Have you watched that? I have not watched Severance.
• 17:04
  Is that on Apple? Yes, that's the one.
• 17:06
  That's the one streaming service I do.
• 17:08
  I have them all but Apple, so I know that it's a fun move.
• 17:12
  I I like, I like hacks. I've seen hacks.
• 17:15
  I love hacks. Yep, I've seen the residents.
• 17:18
  Love the residents. Abbott Elementary.
• 17:20
  I love Abbott Elementary. There's a lot of, believe it or
• 17:23
  not, the superhero one, The Penguin.
• 17:25
  I have not seen it. I know I have HBO either, but I
• 17:28
  mean, I'm because again, I'm so burnt out on superheroes.
• 17:30
  I love superheroes, but I've gotten to the point where I'm
• 17:33
  just so burnt out on superheroes.
• 17:36
  I love, yes, and call me old. I don't care.
• 17:40
  I love Kathy Bates and Matlock. Have you seen that line?
• 17:42
  It's on. TV.
• 17:43
  I've watched it one time and honestly I just could not.
• 17:47
  Could I get into it? I love it.
• 17:49
  I love it, but I will. Have a hard time with any of
• 17:52
  those shows? You know, like.
• 17:54
  I'm surprised by all. The.
• 17:56
  I love Elsbeth. Oh my gosh, I.
• 17:58
  Well, I know because she's from True Blood, so I love her.
• 18:01
  Yeah, just as an actress. What are my favorite shows?
• 18:03
  I could not. I couldn't do it.
• 18:05
  I but I like, but I like those procedurals.
• 18:07
  So I'm a guy who likes Columbo, you know, those detective shows.
• 18:11
  I like them a lot. I like action.
• 18:12
  I like action and detective shows.
• 18:15
  But there are some stuff that you think that I, I mean, I know
• 18:17
  like The Last of Us, yeah. Like which I was fine, OK, Which
• 18:22
  I, when that when I heard about that show, which I love Pedro
• 18:25
  Pascal, and when I heard about the show, I was like, I thought
• 18:30
  it was based off of the book because, you know, it's based
• 18:33
  off of a book and a video game. And so here I am telling my
• 18:37
  children, Benjamin and Jackson, Oh my gosh, you know, The Last
• 18:42
  of Us is based off of this book. And they corrected me.
• 18:45
  They said no, mom. It's originally based off of a
• 18:48
  video game that we play. Oh wow.
• 18:51
  I'm going what? What?
• 18:57
  What? What stupid.
• 18:59
  I did know. Spoiler alert, I did know what
• 19:02
  was coming in Season 2, I just didn't think it was going to
• 19:04
  happen that soon because it really happens in the video
• 19:08
  game. OK, OK all.
• 19:09
  Right. So it's staying true to the how
• 19:13
  the video game is so. So when you're looking down the
• 19:16
  list or do you have any particular favorites?
• 19:18
  I'm looking down the list right now.
• 19:21
  Probably Severance, which I feel like so I feel like The White
• 19:24
  Lotus, which I think it's only nominated for best show, right?
• 19:27
  Best drama Best drama I. Don't think any of the actors or
• 19:31
  actresses, which I loved Walter Groggins in in this last season
• 19:36
  because he's in the Righteous Gemstones, Uncle Uncle Babybilly
• 19:40
  or whatever his name is and I love him.
• 19:42
  So a little bit disappointed he didn't pick up a nomination, but
• 19:47
  they've won a whole bunch. I do know Jean Smart got
• 19:51
  nominated again and she has one for Hacks.
• 19:54
  So yeah, I feel like the shows are pretty representative.
• 19:57
  I've seen a lot of them. Surprising.
• 19:59
  Usually I've only seen one or two so.
• 20:01
  When I do the Oscars, I'm like, what are these 5 movies?
• 20:04
  I don't know what they are, but I usually I've seen one of the
• 20:07
  Oscars, but I mean there's some good ones.
• 20:09
  Only murders in the Building. So I, I've seen, I saw the first
• 20:12
  season. I didn't see the other seasons,
• 20:14
  but I, but I, I love that. I mean, there's a there's a lot,
• 20:17
  there's a lot of good stuff in here if you're looking to vote,
• 20:19
  you know, and a lot, I mean, well, gosh, I'm looking at just
• 20:22
  the great lead actor, Sterling K Brown.
• 20:23
  He's phenomenal. Gary Oldman's phenomenal.
• 20:25
  That's going to be a tough, that's going to be a tough
• 20:28
  category. They're all going to be tough.
• 20:31
  But but yeah, these are all good.
• 20:34
  Have you and you've not watched White Lotus?
• 20:36
  I know White Lotus is the big buzz.
• 20:38
  I've watched all three seasons except for this last one.
• 20:41
  Jennifer Coolidge was not in and so it was a little like, oh, I
• 20:46
  miss Tanya. That was her character in the
• 20:48
  last the first two seasons. So I love Jennifer.
• 20:51
  Again, look at the list. I think there's a lot of great.
• 20:54
  Normally when you look at these lists, you're like, what is this
• 20:56
  stuff? So I, I think there's a lot of
• 20:58
  great these Emmys. I think there's a lot of good,
• 21:00
  good stuff in here that that is a good variety.
• 21:04
  But, and also usually what happens in these situations, you
• 21:08
  either don't win or you sweep it.
• 21:11
  Right. So it just depends on who's the,
• 21:13
  IT just depends on who's the favorite in here.
• 21:16
  Right, which I feel like White Lotus in like past Emmys picked
• 21:20
  up a whole bunch of them and again, they're only nominated
• 21:23
  for. And then, and then I also look
• 21:24
  at it sometimes too, which is always a surprise, but sometimes
• 21:28
  when they get towards the end of their career, it's a Gimme.
• 21:30
  So so I I again, I love. Kathy Bates Yeah, that's what
• 21:36
  I'm looking. When I'm looking right here, I'm
• 21:38
  like, OK, Kathy Bates or like you said, Gene Smart are are
• 21:41
  people I look at like phenomenal.
• 21:43
  I love them anyway, but I'm like, OK, they're getting
• 21:45
  towards the tail end. Do you do you just give it to
• 21:48
  them? I.
• 21:49
  Mean short, Do you have the Bates's one?
• 21:54
  Yeah, she's won Emmy. Yeah.
• 21:55
  So she's. Won.
• 21:55
  So they've won before. Yeah, they've won, so I can see.
• 21:59
  You know, if it was a Susan Lucci area.
• 22:02
  I knew you were going to go with Susan Lucci every.
• 22:03
  I was like, who's Susan Lucci? But yeah, Susan, 13 years.
• 22:07
  I mean, come on. I would, I would have quit
• 22:09
  showing up after after, after the first, like couple years,
• 22:12
  like, OK, guys. Yeah, so and, and even from the
• 22:16
  Susan Lucci thing, that's ridiculous. 13 years.
• 22:19
  She was like the daytime queen of meanness, right?
• 22:23
  I mean, she was, but there are a lot of.
• 22:25
  There is or whatever. You want to.
• 22:27
  Call and if you want to talk soap operas.
• 22:29
  I used to love Days of her Lives and Young and the restless.
• 22:31
  So if you're curious with. Those Yeah, those are my 2 jams.
• 22:34
  You know when you're home sick from school, you want surprises,
• 22:36
  right? And the young?
• 22:37
  And the restless yeah, bow and hope.
• 22:39
  And then I used to like Danny Romanati and cricket.
• 22:42
  Cricket was. Hot on the Young and the
• 22:43
  Restless. Cricket was hot.
• 22:44
  They've both been back on The Young and the Restless.
• 22:47
  Well, now they're like. Because they just celebrated
• 22:48
  their 50th anniversary, they're the same age as me, and so
• 22:52
  they've been having these past characters come back, so it's
• 22:54
  been kind of nice to. Watch kind of cool.
• 22:57
  So I mean, I know General Hospital is huge.
• 22:59
  I never I've I've seen maybe one or two episodes of that, but I
• 23:02
  yeah, for and it was a big deal. It was interesting when I went
• 23:04
  to college, Days of Our lives at noon.
• 23:07
  Everybody would gather in the common area for Days of our
• 23:09
  lives when I was in college. So good memories.
• 23:12
  I mean, Days of Our Lives was fine until that whole Marlena
• 23:16
  got possessed by the devil. I think that's when I kind of
• 23:19
  was like, yeah, I can deal with people being killed and.
• 23:23
  Well, even going back to what's the weird 1, the tinny one, I
• 23:26
  was like, OK, tinny, no. Oh, Santa Barbara, wasn't it?
• 23:29
  That's Santa Barbara. Yeah, yes, I'm like, OK, creeper
• 23:33
  tell. Me and Creeper for me.
• 23:34
  Dad, like I was like, no, thank you.
• 23:38
  Oh. I'm so yeah, good list for
• 23:40
  sammies. Very good.
• 23:43
  So let's see a list for the dumbest shows.
• 23:47
  So I currently am watching a show that I think is would
• 23:51
  probably be on this list. And we started watching it I
• 23:55
  think a few years ago. I got sucked into it.
• 23:58
  It was probably, you know, when COVID had kind of stopped
• 24:02
  production of shows and the writers strike and it came up in
• 24:05
  what, like one of the top 10 things on Netflix to watch it is
• 24:11
  the Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch. Have you heard about the show?
• 24:14
  No. It's on The History Channel.
• 24:17
  This is its sixth season. And I think I came in about
• 24:23
  Season 3 when I stumbled upon it and I watched all three seasons
• 24:26
  and then it comes out every time around this time of year, every
• 24:31
  year. And so I'll give you, here's the
• 24:33
  overview. I copied it off of IDBM or
• 24:36
  whatever it's called. OK, so Skinwalker.
• 24:39
  Skinwalker Ranch and the surrounding area have been
• 24:42
  referred to as UFO Alley since the 1950s, when numerous
• 24:47
  anomalous events and strange activity began occurring.
• 24:51
  A team of scientists and experts conducts a thorough and daring
• 24:55
  search of the infamous 512 acre property in Utah's Una Tub
• 25:01
  Basin. Hopefully I said that right.
• 25:03
  In an attempt to find out the answers behind more than 200
• 25:07
  years of UFO sightings, strange animal mutations and paranormal
• 25:12
  related mysteries, scientists use the latest in cutting edge
• 25:17
  technology like ground penetrating radar and drones to
• 25:22
  seek shocking discoveries. So it's kind of like the cursive
• 25:26
  Oak Island. I don't know if you've ever
• 25:27
  watched that either, which I think is also on The History
• 25:29
  Channel. You know, like they, they give
• 25:31
  you like little bits and pieces like, Oh my gosh, we found this,
• 25:34
  we found this. And but it's it never amounts to
• 25:37
  anything like nothing like conclusive.
• 25:41
  That's like ghost hunters or different things like ghost
• 25:43
  hunters or different things like that.
• 25:45
  I mean, it's like. But one of the cast members, his
• 25:48
  name is Travis Taylor and he is so he's southern, he's from
• 25:52
  Alabama. And so he has like that really
• 25:55
  like southerly. And when he says like the
• 25:57
  secrets of scheme Walker Ranch and but he this guy is like he,
• 26:02
  I think he's like he worked for NASA.
• 26:05
  He has probably PhDs in like aerospace engineering, I mean
• 26:09
  all kinds of stuff. So he's super smart and I think
• 26:13
  he even he may have testified. Remember when Congress had
• 26:17
  everybody come and testify about UFOs and all that jazz?
• 26:20
  That was just a few years ago. I think he even mm Hmm.
• 26:24
  I think he even testified a few years ago.
• 26:26
  So I I think I just love hearing him.
• 26:29
  You know, we use the Laddar radar, you know, like he's
• 26:33
  saying like these big words in like this southern accent.
• 26:37
  And I think I for some reason I like it.
• 26:40
  I have no idea why. Like I said, it's probably the
• 26:44
  dumbest show. How it's around for six seasons,
• 26:47
  I don't know, but I am invested and so I watch every year, every
• 26:52
  year. You should just reach you should
• 26:53
  just reach out to them and see if you'll come on the podcast
• 26:56
  because we're we're legit. We're a legit podcast.
• 27:00
  I I always think about when I think people are always
• 27:04
  surprised by I always joke. I think I'm way more dude than
• 27:09
  people realize. So for me, when you're talking
• 27:11
  dumb shows like or things that you consider that.
• 27:14
  So I like Ice Rd., Truckers, Pawn Stars, Storage Wars.
• 27:19
  You know, you're like, I love, I do love The History Channel.
• 27:23
  I love World War Two. There used to be a show on The
• 27:25
  History Channel called Top Shot where they would compete taking
• 27:28
  shots with guns and you know, so Yep, so, so marksman, marksman,
• 27:33
  different things like that. So those kind of things interest
• 27:35
  me. And then I'm a real nostalgia
• 27:38
  buff. So the A-Team, Silver Spoons,
• 27:42
  Family Ties. I mean, I watch across a wide
• 27:47
  variety and I don't know. I don't know.
• 27:49
  I don't. I wonder if it's because my
• 27:51
  childhood was taken from me like Michael Jackson to where I tend
• 27:55
  to find comfort in those kind of different.
• 27:56
  I know. I'm just saying those kind of
• 27:58
  shows. Reliving your childhood.
• 27:59
  Yeah, well, so it's it's fun to to watch those, those shows and
• 28:04
  and also I'm big about shows that I could not stay up and
• 28:08
  watch when I was younger. Yeah.
• 28:10
  So so I'll go back and watch something as I'll I'll know
• 28:13
  something as a kid, let's say, let's say it's Three's company
• 28:15
  or whatever. Now that now you get all the
• 28:17
  jokes, you get all the jokes. But recently, just for the fun
• 28:20
  of it, I started watching MacGyver.
• 28:22
  Oh, I loved MacGyver. Right, right.
• 28:25
  But, but I never got to really watch.
• 28:26
  Yeah, I never really got to watch a lot of it as a kid.
• 28:28
  I mean, I know who MacGyver is, but so, yeah, so I kind of do a
• 28:32
  little bit more nostalgia. So yeah, I think my, I think my
• 28:35
  age is showing to where all the hip new shows.
• 28:38
  I will discover the new hip shows later on after after
• 28:41
  everybody says, oh it's. After no one is talking about
• 28:43
  them anymore. Well, there's a good one right
• 28:45
  now that I'm watching called Blind Spot, where she has all
• 28:48
  the tattoos. That was on NBC years ago
• 28:53
  because I think I started watching like season 1 and then
• 28:56
  just kind of faded out. I never.
• 28:58
  Yeah, it's really, but it's really.
• 29:00
  Yeah. But it's an yeah, those kind of
• 29:01
  things. So to me, I tend to discover.
• 29:03
  I know about stuff, but then I tend to discover it later.
• 29:05
  And then I and then I'm always like, why didn't anybody tell me
• 29:08
  this was a great show? I know, I know, I know.
• 29:15
  It's it's one of those things when you get when you get done
• 29:17
  with work or you're done with the job, you just, you want to
• 29:20
  veg more so than try to think. So when I, so when I do get into
• 29:24
  shows, like you said, like white Lotus or different, any show
• 29:26
  that make makes me have to think I'm like, OK, I'll, I'll save
• 29:30
  this for later. It's too much, too much brain
• 29:32
  work. I just want some numbing stuff.
• 29:34
  Right, which for me is like the Real Housewives of like OC or.
• 29:38
  Beverly Hills. Those are the mind numbing shows
• 29:42
  I love to watch. So my husband is like, why?
• 29:52
  I like, I love to see rich people with the same problems.
• 29:57
  I we love to see rich people with the same problems.
• 30:00
  Oh my gosh, I but but they're but they're so rich, it doesn't
• 30:05
  even matter. I mean, yeah.
• 30:07
  So so, yeah. So outside of let's say Survivor
• 30:11
  is a great is good reality or fun, We can't can be fun reality
• 30:14
  TV and that's a hit and miss season.
• 30:17
  You know, we did have a friend named Michelle that was on
• 30:19
  Survivor one year. So of course I watched her
• 30:21
  season. My good friend Faith Martin down
• 30:24
  here in Tri-cities is on the Bachelor in Paradise coming up
• 30:27
  here. I think she's on tonight is.
• 30:28
  She on this one. Yeah, she's on this one.
• 30:31
  She was on the golden bachelor, right.
• 30:33
  So if you watch that she came in 3rd.
• 30:35
  So she's there all the way to the end and they come to the
• 30:37
  tri-cities. So Oh nice, those are those
• 30:40
  exceptions were. But for me it's like Meg, my
• 30:44
  wife Megan is into what love island or what's the one where
• 30:47
  you're blind like like blind. She loves Oh my God, she'll sit
• 30:52
  and watch that non what I'm like, really what?
• 30:55
  I think I watched one season of both of those and then I just,
• 30:58
  I, I was like, I'm out. I can't but.
• 31:00
  You're in on the Kardashians. No, I've never watched.
• 31:04
  I have never ever watched a, a a season, an episode of any of the
• 31:10
  Kardashians. Oh.
• 31:11
  Really. Oh well then I'm guilt, I'm
• 31:13
  guilty. So here's what's interesting
• 31:15
  years ago for me when those shows came in to to vogue,
• 31:19
  right. So I I've seen the Kardashians
• 31:22
  are part of it and then even Ozzy Osbourne.
• 31:24
  So that because remember, there was a time when reality TV shows
• 31:27
  were the big were the big. Things the new thing that
• 31:31
  everybody just. Couldn't.
• 31:31
  So when I was new, when I was new, I would watch at least a
• 31:35
  couple episodes of those. So yeah.
• 31:36
  So I can't lie and say I've never seen an episode of the.
• 31:38
  Of course I have. And same with a lot of those
• 31:41
  other shows. Same as The Bachelor.
• 31:43
  One time The Bachelor had Chicago on the rock band
• 31:47
  Chicago. So of course I had to watch
• 31:50
  their performance. So it's like, yeah, if Richard
• 31:52
  Page or Mr. Mr. was on the Bachelor I or was performing to
• 31:55
  serenade the couple, I'd be like, OK, where's that at?
• 31:58
  So I'm guilty, I think which the.
• 31:59
  Bachelor too, I tried to watch the first season but it's two
• 32:03
  hours long. That's the other thing if if a
• 32:05
  show goes over an hour survivor I can hang on for.
• 32:08
  But right any of them that go 2 hours you have.
• 32:11
  Lost. Well, even.
• 32:12
  An hour even from I have checked out.
• 32:14
  Yeah, even from the show. Like I used to love American
• 32:17
  Idol, you know, or, or The Voice or the voice, but if you but
• 32:21
  because it's like 2 hours, right?
• 32:23
  My brain is like, OK, I and I love seeing those like the
• 32:27
  recaps on YouTube now. Yeah.
• 32:28
  I guess it's just the. Watch this person's.
• 32:33
  I hate how American Idol and the Voice now like they stretch out
• 32:37
  the teaser for like the last 45 minutes of the show.
• 32:42
  It's like just get to it already.
• 32:43
  Like right shit to do. Right, exactly.
• 32:47
  Like, I know you're just trying to eke out every little last bit
• 32:50
  you can get out of people, but come on, let's make this an hour
• 32:52
  show and move on. Now you being from radio should
• 32:55
  understand time spent listening TSL and I know dragging.
• 32:59
  Dragging your art. Dragging your audience law along
• 33:02
  like a dead hooker. Yes, yeah.
• 33:04
  So that's probably why it agitates me even more because I
• 33:07
  know what they're doing and it's like.
• 33:09
  No, I will say, I will say what's interesting about our age
• 33:12
  because I, I do have a bunch of streaming services.
• 33:14
  I don't have the Apple one, but I've got everything else is I'm,
• 33:17
  I'm OK with commercials because we grew up on commercials,
• 33:20
  right? I'd rather pay 6 bucks for
• 33:22
  something that has commercials then pay 20 bucks for non
• 33:25
  commercials. But I know, like I wonder about,
• 33:27
  I wonder about your kids, Shaylee and all them.
• 33:29
  Are they dead set about not having commercials in their
• 33:32
  their streaming? They are used to commercials
• 33:34
  because of YouTube, because they watch YouTube all the time now.
• 33:38
  And so they are used to commercials and I watch regular
• 33:42
  TV that has commercials. So they've been subjected to
• 33:45
  that all of their life. So they would prefer not to have
• 33:49
  them, but they're not, you know, it's not a thing for like they
• 33:53
  could carry their way basically and they're not going to pay
• 33:57
  extra. Yeah.
• 33:58
  Oh, well, that's good because there are people that will pay
• 34:01
  stupid amounts of money not to have commercials.
• 34:03
  And I'm like, wow. But we grew up on it.
• 34:05
  So to me it's like it's a normal thing.
• 34:07
  So I was curious how your kids handled that.
• 34:09
  Right, yeah, which you don't have Apple TV, which you just
• 34:13
  said, but I had to renew ours. So we had it to watch Severance.
• 34:19
  And then when I knew that Murderbot, which is what
• 34:22
  Alexandra Skarsgard is in, was going to be out, which is it's a
• 34:27
  sci-fi. It should be something that
• 34:28
  you'll like. I don't know, it's based off of
• 34:31
  a book. So I had to renew our
• 34:34
  subscription. And so I just finished watching
• 34:36
  that. I think this last week was the
• 34:39
  the ending episode for that season, but it has been renewed
• 34:42
  for a second season. Thank you.
• 34:45
  Yeah, well, I'm super excited. It's your boy.
• 34:47
  It's your boy. But.
• 34:48
  But I understand, I understand that.
• 34:51
  I understand that I've got, I've got my faves where I'll go out
• 34:53
  of my, you know, we've we've talked about I love Catherine
• 34:55
  Bell and she was on The Good Witch and Jags.
• 34:58
  So I'm, and I love Kelly Clarkson.
• 35:00
  I mean, there's a bunch of folks that I stalk.
• 35:02
  So I hear you. Yeah.
• 35:04
  Yeah, which I don't think he's been on a series since True
• 35:07
  Blood. Like an actual.
• 35:08
  TV Interesting. I mean he's been in multiple
• 35:10
  movies but not an actual series series so it's kind of nice to
• 35:14
  see him. I always I always love it when
• 35:17
  you see an actor and actress to fame like Skyrocket and then you
• 35:21
  see him in TV shows, you see him in all these bit parts long
• 35:25
  before they were famous. So it's always fun to be so
• 35:28
  you'd be watching an old episode of let's say Seinfeld or friends
• 35:31
  and go, wait a minute, that's that's Jake Gyllenhaal.
• 35:34
  You know, it's so you don't or Brad Pitt or whoever and you
• 35:37
  realize they they're all they're paying their dues.
• 35:40
  Have you watched? Speaking of Brad Pitt, have you?
• 35:41
  Seen watched his new movie about the Formula One racing.
• 35:45
  I have not. I hear it's excellent.
• 35:47
  I hear it's good, but I've heard my son Benjamin.
• 35:50
  Who is now totally into Formula One, Formula One racing because
• 35:55
  of that movie. So I think, I think the I think.
• 35:57
  What's happened though, I think movies, so I know that horror
• 36:01
  movies are big these days. I know that superhero movies are
• 36:04
  big these days. And, and so it's hard to get
• 36:07
  the, the I, I think the drama is the one that struggles these
• 36:09
  days to get people to the, to the, the theaters.
• 36:13
  The back in our day, back in our day, it was Kramer versus
• 36:16
  Kramer. There was a lot of dramas on,
• 36:17
  you know, different things like that crazy.
• 36:20
  But I enjoyed. I mean, if you're talking Ricky
• 36:23
  Bobby, tally digging night, tally digging night, Will
• 36:26
  Ferrell, that was my racing movie car racing.
• 36:29
  Yeah, there's my racing. There's my racing.
• 36:31
  Movie so how I mean honestly, how often do you go to the
• 36:35
  movies anymore because everybody's waiting for
• 36:37
  streaming these days I really when we talk about that video
• 36:40
  video killed the radio star I'm streaming killed the movie star
• 36:45
  Oh yeah I really. They just accelerated.
• 36:48
  It. Oh, absolutely.
• 36:50
  I I think the. Majority of people now are like,
• 36:52
  I'll just wait till streaming. I'll just wait till streaming.
• 36:54
  And I think they and I think that the the companies also shot
• 36:57
  themselves in the foot by doing same day during the pandemic.
• 37:00
  Yeah, but. But I mean, they didn't really
• 37:02
  have a choice back. No, they didn't.
• 37:03
  But I but I understand. You know, I understand why the
• 37:06
  people are like, no, now I'll just wait for it.
• 37:09
  It, it. And so very seldom does a movie
• 37:11
  come along where I'm like, oh, I got to go see I got to go see
• 37:14
  that. But there but there are cinema
• 37:16
  files like our friend Dave Edel that will go to IMAX to see F1.
• 37:22
  So my my my Co worker drove the Spokane to go see Superman on
• 37:26
  the IMAX. So I.
• 37:29
  Mean that's cool. It is cool.
• 37:31
  But I'm not I'm. Not that obsessed about
• 37:33
  anything, right? I think I've ever seen a movie
• 37:36
  on the IMAX. So, Megan.
• 37:37
  And I went, Megan and I went. To see Dune on IMAX because
• 37:40
  that's more of a Megan movie. Because she loves the book.
• 37:45
  My wife is way. My wife is way more about books
• 37:49
  than that become movies that she's read.
• 37:53
  I mean, there have been. Movies that I have read the book
• 37:56
  1st and then they are made into a movie and a lot of times it's
• 38:00
  usually disappointing, you know, like the book was better or they
• 38:04
  left out a bunch of thing. Obviously a movie has to be an
• 38:08
  hour and a half hour long compared to this book.
• 38:12
  And so they have to cut things out.
• 38:13
  I get it. But sometimes I feel like, well,
• 38:17
  you just cut out a huge piece of this book and now it's kind of
• 38:20
  wonky in the movie because it it just doesn't make sense.
• 38:25
  So I feel like that has been a struggle for me.
• 38:28
  When I read books and then they come out as a movie, it's
• 38:31
  disappointing. So how interesting.
• 38:34
  Yeah, I don't. Read so she feels the same way
• 38:36
  so. I have to ask her.
• 38:38
  I have to ask. Her about that, she always, she
• 38:40
  doesn't give me a lot of crap. It's so funny is she says I
• 38:44
  don't read real books because because of comic books.
• 38:48
  I'm like, what are you talking? About.
• 38:52
  And so I'm not real books, though.
• 38:55
  Well, it's I, I can, I can read, I can sit down and read a book.
• 39:00
  And I have, but I am much more of a so I'll be watching
• 39:04
  something or I'll be thinking of something and go, oh, I want to
• 39:06
  know more about that. And then I'll go Google it.
• 39:09
  So so I'm much. More.
• 39:11
  And she always jokes. Note everything's on Wikipedia,
• 39:15
  so we go. Round and round about those
• 39:16
  little. Things, but so if I so if I see
• 39:18
  something interest me, I'm like, oh, what is that?
• 39:20
  I'm going to go, I'm going to, I'm going to go read about the
• 39:21
  Titanic. Now.
• 39:23
  I've read a lot about the Titanic, but I've never sat down
• 39:26
  and read a thick book about the Titanic.
• 39:28
  I read it in little excerpts, little excerpts.
• 39:32
  So I love. Lafayette, who was not one of
• 39:36
  our founding fathers because he was from France, obviously, but
• 39:41
  I, I couldn't get into reading his autobiography.
• 39:44
  So instead I did listening to his autobiography and that was
• 39:48
  much better. I feel like when the books are
• 39:51
  kind of slow to start or have those weird areas to them where
• 39:55
  you just can't stay engaged reading.
• 39:57
  So audio books have been great because.
• 40:01
  When I was going back and forth to Yakima, one of the the
• 40:05
  engineer gave me an audio book of Lewis and Clark in the
• 40:07
  expedition. So I popped that in and I so
• 40:10
  did. Did Rick read the book?
• 40:14
  Well, I can tell you that the dog's name was.
• 40:16
  Seamus and how you know all these different things about you
• 40:18
  know, into the book so and I you.
• 40:21
  Know if we retain some of that information?
• 40:23
  Well, the dog's name was. Seaman, I'm sorry, it wasn't
• 40:26
  Seamus, it was Seaman. So for me that was real easy to,
• 40:28
  that was really easy to of course, of course it was.
• 40:35
  I'm just saying little thing and you say that.
• 40:39
  Megan and Kyron and them have the sense of humor of a 12.
• 40:43
  Year old boy. Not me.
• 40:47
  I won't let it show Mr. Goody. 2 shoes, that's what.
• 40:52
  I'm going to call you from now on, right?
• 40:55
  Absolutely. That's all right.
• 40:57
  Well, since we're talking about. Washed up TV shows and
• 41:00
  personalities we could transition to Tori spelling.
• 41:04
  Yeah, what's going on with now? Now for me, Tori Spelling is a
• 41:06
  train wreck. That was one show back in the
• 41:08
  day. Beverly Hills 9O21.
• 41:10
  OII watched that. I watched Melrose Place.
• 41:13
  Me too. Yeah.
• 41:14
  So. I mean so and again it goes it.
• 41:16
  Goes back to that was a social thing at that time, those shows
• 41:21
  were the hottest things on TV and, you know, and we were and
• 41:25
  we were. Yeah.
• 41:26
  And we were in our 20s. I was, gosh, I was, you know, I
• 41:29
  was 20 years old. So of course you watched.
• 41:31
  You watched 9O21-O and you watched Melrose Place.
• 41:34
  Yeah. Jamie Walters.
• 41:35
  Came to the fair, you were not at 1, not there, but I do know
• 41:39
  who you. Yeah, right.
• 41:40
  This is before you. He.
• 41:41
  Performed and I have a poster. I think I still have it
• 41:44
  somewhere. Probably packed away in my
• 41:46
  radio. Crap.
• 41:47
  He hurt. He hurt Donna.
• 41:48
  He. Pushed Donna down.
• 41:49
  This is before. This is before he.
• 41:51
  Became they wrote him in as a jerk.
• 41:56
  Ray Pruitt. His character was Ray.
• 41:58
  Pruitt so good memory. Ray Pruitt, that's.
• 42:02
  What his character? 'S name was.
• 42:04
  I asked. Her if he could, because he's.
• 42:05
  Like, well, what? What's your name?
• 42:07
  What do you want me? You know, what?
• 42:08
  Do you want me to ride on it? And I was like, can you write?
• 42:10
  Will you marry me? And did he do it?
• 42:13
  Yes. He did.
• 42:15
  I like I said, I have it somewhere still because I'm
• 42:18
  holding on to this. I mean, so he was in a show so
• 42:21
  before. Beverly Hills 9O21-O He was in a
• 42:24
  series called The Heights and how do you talk to an Angel Is
• 42:26
  that big song. So for me, that's my Jamie
• 42:29
  Walters song is How do you talk to an Angel?
• 42:32
  I know Hold On was a big hit, number one hit, but yeah, he was
• 42:35
  in this musical series called The Heights.
• 42:37
  And so. But I hear what you're saying.
• 42:40
  I hear what you're saying. And have you seen him these
• 42:42
  days? I've seen, I've seen him, I
• 42:45
  think. Entertainment Tonight or Extra
• 42:47
  something did something about him years ago, but he's not even
• 42:51
  acting. Isn't he?
• 42:52
  Like, no, he's a firefighter, Yeah.
• 42:54
  He's like a policeman and he has like 3 kids.
• 42:56
  And he's married and he hardly has he left and he's bald and.
• 42:59
  He's bald, but I mean, that's OK, there's nothing wrong being
• 43:02
  bald. I'm just saying that yes, he
• 43:03
  doesn't. He's still a good, good looking
• 43:05
  guy. I mean, for his age he's still a
• 43:07
  good looking dude. But yeah, he's totally not.
• 43:09
  Not what? Not what he used to look like.
• 43:12
  OK, well, let's get on to what? Tori Spelling did so.
• 43:15
  She had her old. Breast.
• 43:17
  Implants removed. And this was when she was still
• 43:20
  married to Dee McDermott or whatever the hell his name is.
• 43:25
  And so she asked the doctor if she could keep them, which is
• 43:30
  highly unlikely that they will let you keep them, but this
• 43:33
  doctor did. So he gave her her old breast
• 43:37
  implants back and she had them made into bookends for their
• 43:42
  anniversary and gave them to her husband.
• 43:46
  Yes. So her all the breast implants
• 43:50
  are these book heads which I know like when you die, like
• 43:54
  they take them out and I have them So when you.
• 43:58
  Die. Well, especially if I'm going to
• 44:00
  be. Cremated.
• 44:01
  Because they don't want that, like, you know, yeah, whatever
• 44:04
  they are. Saline.
• 44:05
  Saline gel. Saline.
• 44:07
  That's right. Thank you.
• 44:08
  Saline. Yeah.
• 44:08
  There's different ones, so there's the.
• 44:10
  Saline and there's the gel ones and so usually which they also
• 44:14
  take out like any metal that you had before they So if you've got
• 44:17
  braces or you've got braces. Your braces are coming off
• 44:20
  basically or like a hip replacement.
• 44:23
  Or whatever it is they they remove.
• 44:26
  All that stuff before they. Send you in the incinerator.
• 44:28
  And so I was joking with Shaylee one day because she was talking
• 44:33
  about this like, oh, well, you know, they're going to remove
• 44:35
  your breast implants. Oh, I was telling her that I
• 44:37
  wanted to be cremated. That's how we got on this rabbit
• 44:40
  subject. And she's like, well, they're
• 44:42
  going to remove your breast implants.
• 44:44
  And I said, well, they could just give them to you.
• 44:45
  Then like, here you go and bookends, here's your mom.
• 44:48
  'S boobs. It's right.
• 44:49
  There so and make it A and make it a book.
• 44:52
  I don't think she wants. Bookends what's wrong with
• 44:55
  what's OK? What's wrong with Tori's
• 44:57
  spelling? I mean, now I.
• 45:00
  Do know I knew I. Know that Daddy shut her out of
• 45:04
  all that did this because she did this.
• 45:06
  Or just in general, what's wrong?
• 45:08
  Well, I, I, I feel OK. I do feel bad for for Tori
• 45:12
  Spelling and and then her brothers Randy, who's actually
• 45:16
  very normal. I actually follow Randy on
• 45:18
  Instagram because he's yeah, I do.
• 45:20
  I I follow Randy Spelling and he's pretty normal for the most
• 45:24
  part. But what, what's interesting
• 45:26
  about that whole thing was Aaron Spelling was like the richest
• 45:30
  guy in Hollywood. Like the, the house was 150.
• 45:34
  I mean, the house was insane. It had, it had a candy store in
• 45:38
  there. It had a might as well had a
• 45:39
  McDonald's. The list goes on and on.
• 45:41
  And he didn't leave them. He left them each like $800,000
• 45:46
  like the kids gave it all to candy, the wife, the widow for
• 45:51
  everything. And I'm not, and I'm not saying
• 45:53
  that every kid deserves to get the wealth of their parents, but
• 45:56
  I think, I think number one, I think Tori Spellings is a mad
• 46:00
  spender. She's crazy so and she gets and
• 46:04
  she's always in trouble with with the IRS and all these
• 46:06
  different things that she hasn't paid her bills and she lives a
• 46:09
  lifestyle that she pretty much can't afford.
• 46:12
  I think that's an objection of her dad.
• 46:15
  Probably, Probably. Hurt her a little.
• 46:17
  Bit. Oh yeah.
• 46:19
  Definitely. But yeah, like her, like you
• 46:22
  said, their mom got all the money.
• 46:24
  Like I know. And I wasn't there a huge fight
• 46:29
  between her and her mom. I'm guessing you'd speak.
• 46:33
  Yeah. Go ahead.
• 46:34
  No. They, they were estranged
• 46:35
  absolutely. So when he so when the dad
• 46:37
  passed away, they were estranged basically.
• 46:39
  Well, I thought it was because of like who?
• 46:40
  She her husband or ex-husband, I wouldn't be surprised.
• 46:44
  I would not be surprised. Multiple things kind of
• 46:48
  compounding on each other that yeah, they had a huge falling
• 46:52
  out and it was never really repaired, which is unfortunate
• 46:55
  because Tori has what, 5-6 kids and, well, so I, so I compared.
• 46:59
  Dean McDermott to Kevin, Kevin Federline, like really freaking
• 47:04
  what they call it a succubus or whatever.
• 47:05
  That's just fucking Dean has been in a few.
• 47:08
  More movies and Kevin has been in music videos or had get it
• 47:11
  but. You know, but when?
• 47:13
  I read stories about Britney I. And I do follow Britney on
• 47:15
  Instagram because most of the time she's naked.
• 47:17
  Me too because she's naked. Most of the time.
• 47:19
  But, but I but I do watch her conversations.
• 47:22
  I do watch her conversations and some of the things that I what I
• 47:25
  do think is disgust. OK, I don't know if we've ever
• 47:28
  talked about this. I think it's disgusting when
• 47:31
  someone takes advantage of somebody's else's wealth.
• 47:34
  Oh, yeah. So, so.
• 47:36
  So I was reading about Kevin Federline and all of what he
• 47:40
  gets. It's insane.
• 47:42
  Same as the Kevin Costner divorce.
• 47:44
  I'm not saying now they have millions, you should get part of
• 47:48
  the millions, however, but the ridiculousness of like the Kevin
• 47:51
  Costner wife was like I need to live in the same manner that he
• 47:55
  does like my my level of living. So I'm divorcing.
• 47:59
  So I'm divorcing Kevin Costner even though I had a an affair
• 48:02
  with the personal trainer. I'm divorcing Kevin Costner, but
• 48:06
  but my lifestyle does not. Yeah, and I need to.
• 48:09
  Continue that same lifestyle right because he because that's
• 48:13
  because. That's what I'm accustomed to
• 48:15
  and the courts go OK what? So it depends on if that spouse.
• 48:20
  Has the kids too relative to you know, and that and that's why
• 48:24
  custody. Of their kids so.
• 48:26
  OK, how much money do they need? That's, I guess that's the
• 48:30
  question, because that's that's the insanity is the amounts that
• 48:33
  they ask for rape. You know 120. 5 million, I mean
• 48:37
  125 or 125,000 a month for child support.
• 48:42
  What I mean, they have to pay for their four.
• 48:44
  Nannies and you know that's it and that's it.
• 48:46
  They don't even they technically.
• 48:47
  They don't even raise the kids. And the and the wife who
• 48:49
  divorced, Kevin Costner, still want to live in the same Malibu.
• 48:53
  Well, I need to live in the same Malibu neighborhood, so he needs
• 48:57
  to cover my mortgage. You cheated.
• 49:00
  You cheated. I mean, you should have had a
• 49:03
  prenup. I and and again.
• 49:06
  When it comes to men, I do believe men are not held as
• 49:09
  accountable as women are or in in situations.
• 49:13
  So I am not taking a trust me when you're listening to this
• 49:15
  podcast, I'm not taking a man's side.
• 49:18
  You got kids, you step up, you take care of business, period.
• 49:21
  I think, I think men get away with, I think men get away with
• 49:23
  murder. Basically, when it comes to
• 49:24
  child support, taking care of their kids, who you, you got to
• 49:28
  step up and be be the man. And so but you see these crazy
• 49:32
  stories or going even going back to the Kelly Clarkson divorce,
• 49:35
  you know, my, my, my crush, like they got a divorce and Brandon
• 49:40
  Blackwell or whatever his name is.
• 49:41
  And yeah, I need. I need the ranch.
• 49:44
  And the list just I need 30 million.
• 49:46
  It was just insane. And they go because she has it.
• 49:50
  And going back to Natalie Mains, the Dixie Chicks, she was
• 49:53
  married to Adrian Pasdar, I believe, and and she he tried to
• 49:58
  take her because they live in California.
• 50:01
  She he took her to the clean to the cleaners and said and he's
• 50:04
  an actor. He's an actor goes well, but
• 50:07
  she's the one who provided my lifestyle.
• 50:10
  So I want to go. I want a vacation in Cabo and
• 50:13
  without her paying it for it, I can't do these things.
• 50:16
  What's that kind of that is that?
• 50:18
  Is playing out right now with Denise Richards.
• 50:20
  Have you read about that? No, her husband.
• 50:23
  Her husband. Erin filed for divorce, which
• 50:26
  she was on Real Housewives of Yeah.
• 50:30
  And then she had her own TV show that.
• 50:32
  I just watched this past season or whatever, but she said back
• 50:37
  when she was on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, how you know
• 50:39
  they're never going to get divorced, blah, blah, blah,
• 50:41
  blah, blah. And so when I read this, I was
• 50:44
  like, what? But he's asking for like
• 50:47
  hundreds of thousands of dollars in support like you're talking
• 50:50
  about. You know he's saying you spend
• 50:53
  20. $1000 a month on. Groceries and right, right, like
• 50:57
  this stuff and this, this. Cannot this the insanity makes
• 51:01
  no sense to me. I'm not saying, you know, well,
• 51:04
  I earn my I earn my keep, OK, blah, blah, blah.
• 51:06
  But I just I just I have never understood that mentality.
• 51:11
  So off the soapbox. I fell off the soapbox.
• 51:15
  Prenups, people. Get iron.
• 51:18
  Well, well, I'm a DJ, so. I got I got no money so I've got
• 51:21
  no money so I never have to worry about that, but I will.
• 51:24
  I will give my ex-wife credit Pokey.
• 51:27
  She didn't take the comic book collection, not that it was
• 51:28
  worth that much, but she didn't she she could have been mean and
• 51:33
  sell it and split them. Yeah.
• 51:35
  Yeah, but she didn't do. She didn't.
• 51:36
  Do any of those things. She she got what she asked for.
• 51:38
  She says I want this and I said OK and we could that we could
• 51:43
  talk forever about that big blunder, that big mistake.
• 51:46
  Yeah, I could do a whole therapy session for you on that
• 51:48
  particular situation. Maybe we'll get biggest regret
• 51:51
  of. Biggest regret of my life.
• 51:54
  Well, but you wouldn't have phoned Megan.
• 51:55
  So it's fine. Well, that's what Megan says.
• 51:57
  Because when I came into. Megan with the relation with
• 51:59
  Megan, I'm like, hey, man, I got, I got all this baggage, I
• 52:02
  got all this luggage. And she and, and she was funny
• 52:06
  about that. She's like, well, you know, now
• 52:08
  I don't think she thinks that today because now we've been
• 52:10
  together 17 years. But but at the beginning she's
• 52:13
  like, well, but I got you now. I think she could kick me to the
• 52:16
  curb and not lose an ounce of sleep on that situation.
• 52:18
  I don't know about you and Jay, but yeah, Megan could kick me to
• 52:21
  the I know she could. She she don't need me, you know,
• 52:25
  But I've always been hyper. Independent and so I think that
• 52:28
  like how we grew up, we talked about in past episodes where
• 52:31
  I've had to take care of my brother, my little brother,
• 52:34
  myself. And so you become hyper
• 52:36
  independent and that translate, you know, that goes with you
• 52:40
  into adulthood. And so I as a person am
• 52:44
  independent and I like my time to myself, which again, my
• 52:48
  husband is gone during the week and and this is been our what
• 52:52
  our life has been what 30 some years now.
• 52:55
  He's either travelled for his. Job or.
• 52:57
  Worked away and some of my friends in the beginning would
• 53:01
  say well how do? You.
• 53:03
  How do you do it? Don't you miss him?
• 53:07
  I'm like. I'm like, no.
• 53:09
  I'm like, no, it gives me my time, my time that I need for
• 53:15
  myself. And then when he comes home on
• 53:18
  the weekends, we don't fight about stupid stuff.
• 53:20
  We don't fight about the things that, you know, a couple who
• 53:23
  would fight about to see each other every day like we do do
• 53:26
  the dishes or take off the garbage or blow.
• 53:28
  You know, you're just so fight over that because you have this
• 53:30
  short amount of time together and you realize that this is
• 53:34
  stupid. We're not going to fight about
• 53:35
  it. And you just make the best of
• 53:37
  the time that you have. So, so there you go.
• 53:40
  That's my two cents. So I I like.
• 53:43
  That I think, yes, if I, I think if I wasn't here and just paid
• 53:46
  Megan's bills, that'd be, she'd be happy with that.
• 53:48
  But I'm not, I'm not that wealthy.
• 53:51
  I have to, I have to live here too.
• 53:52
  But her big thing more than anything else is everything has
• 53:55
  its place and I've and through the years I've tried.
• 53:57
  I am now though. I've tried to do better.
• 54:00
  I've tried to do. Better.
• 54:01
  I'm not perfect, but I've tried to do better and just never.
• 54:04
  I always joke. I just don't ever say I'm I
• 54:06
  what? What was it that happened?
• 54:07
  Oh, OK, here's the situation. What drives her nuts is so she
• 54:15
  was at the sink and she was washing a dish or she was
• 54:18
  loading the dishwasher and I had my plate behind her.
• 54:22
  So I waited. I waited behind her and she got
• 54:27
  upset. She gets upset with me because,
• 54:29
  you know, you could tell me to move.
• 54:31
  I'm like, no, I can wait. I can wait.
• 54:33
  And she gets fury infuriated because I will if she if, if
• 54:37
  she's doing something, I won't interfere.
• 54:41
  Like I won't, I won't, I won't go excuse me, right.
• 54:45
  You try to not be. Seen you try to yes and that
• 54:49
  drive. Me yes and and she hates that
• 54:52
  infuriates her that I tried to be how I was raised like oh
• 54:58
  she's ahead of me that's what I was going to say it's.
• 55:00
  It's just based off of but she but she hates it.
• 55:03
  She. Would she, you know, she because
• 55:05
  I don't push her aside and go excuse me?
• 55:09
  So if I anyone would do that though.
• 55:11
  So, well, yeah, but. So, yeah, so that's so.
• 55:16
  But that I'm like, I'm just trying to and oh, and and she
• 55:19
  got mad at me about it. And she goes, oh, she goes, it
• 55:21
  pisses me off. And I said, well, it's going to
• 55:23
  be a long 25 years, you know, Only that pisses her.
• 55:26
  Off Oh no, the list is long. But that's like the main one.
• 55:30
  No, that's one of them, but. Here's the deal about being
• 55:33
  married, and I do believe this. Our relationships and you and I
• 55:36
  have talked about this. Believe it or not, I do have a
• 55:39
  theory that we are all married to the same person.
• 55:42
  They're just in different rappers.
• 55:44
  They're just in different rappers.
• 55:46
  That's all. Because once, because I remember
• 55:50
  that our good buddy Dave Edel, who's married to Sarah, who's
• 55:52
  very beautiful, and our buddy Jack, our buddy Jack is like, Oh
• 55:55
  my God, she's the most gorgeous woman on the planet.
• 55:58
  You know his tongue, Sarah. Edel, Sarah Edel, right?
• 56:04
  And and Dave said one day about Sarah said no matter how
• 56:09
  beautiful they are, someones tired of their shit.
• 56:11
  I. Mean that's true and that's on
• 56:16
  the flip side for them too I'm. Sure, Sarah gets tired of his.
• 56:19
  I'm sure Sarah has started up Dave's shit as well.
• 56:21
  But but I, I love those things because I'm like, yeah, so you
• 56:25
  and I have talked a lot about, oh, the grass is greener over
• 56:27
  there. It's dirt brown.
• 56:29
  It's dirt because you're going to OK at the beginning.
• 56:32
  What you think you're missing is those butterflies in that old,
• 56:35
  you know, like you know that that romance, but then you're
• 56:39
  going to quickly settle in and five year we've talked.
• 56:44
  It's a rarity. It's not to say that it's just
• 56:45
  you know, everybody, everybody's marriage is different to some
• 56:48
  extent, but on the other side it even when I talked to I saw
• 56:53
  Micah a couple months back. We were talking and man, am I
• 56:57
  getting too personal now, but he was talking back.
• 57:00
  These these people are going he. Goes gosh, you know, because
• 57:03
  he's got he's. Got a, he's got a, he's got a
• 57:04
  daughter and he's got a stepson. He's got a dog.
• 57:07
  And he was talking about, man, I can't, I can't get any romance
• 57:10
  time with with my wife. And I'm like, I don't have any
• 57:15
  of those things and I can't get any romance time with my wife
• 57:19
  because. Because there comes a.
• 57:21
  Point where you've been together so long that that that you don't
• 57:24
  get any romance. You don't get any romance time.
• 57:26
  And my son, my son Logan is hilarious because he's his
• 57:29
  girlfriend, her girl, his girlfriend's name is Julia.
• 57:32
  So it's Logan and Julia. And the hilarity is Logan would
• 57:36
  stay with us on occasion with Julia and they'd be all entwined
• 57:39
  watching a movie. Oh, it's so right.
• 57:41
  I love a movie, you know. And and so Logan one time came
• 57:46
  in goes because I don't think you have a good relationship
• 57:47
  with Megan. He goes, he goes, you don't even
• 57:51
  go nearer. You guys don't even act like
• 57:53
  you're married. And I said that's called
• 57:55
  marriage. That's 17 years.
• 58:00
  That's called marriage. That's called.
• 58:02
  Marriage. He goes, he goes, no, we're not
• 58:04
  trying to gobble each other up like, you know, newlyweds or
• 58:08
  well, I just, I just can't breathe.
• 58:10
  I can't breathe without without. I'm like, come on, So Logan's
• 58:14
  going to kill me now that but he is.
• 58:17
  But he's like. So I but I.
• 58:19
  Just make the joke. I'm like, it's called marriage.
• 58:21
  So 30 years, 30 years, come see me. 30 years down the road, I
• 58:24
  will still be alive. Come see me.
• 58:26
  And I want to see if you're all entwined, like let's watch a
• 58:29
  movie. I mean, I feel like that.
• 58:31
  You know, butterflies and that kind of stuff.
• 58:33
  Like what you talked about. Sure, yes, that kind of wanes,
• 58:37
  but there are still little moments.
• 58:40
  Like somebody commented like Jay and I still hold hands.
• 58:43
  And yeah, that was behind. I think it was like one of our
• 58:46
  friends or something like, oh, you guys still hold hands and
• 58:48
  it's like, well, yeah, like, don't you like.
• 58:50
  I thought that was like weird that, you know, they didn't.
• 58:54
  And so there's still pieces of it.
• 58:57
  It's just not you just grow into your relationship and who you
• 59:01
  are as people and you grow together.
• 59:02
  Oh no, there's the, there's the. There's, there's wonderful
• 59:05
  moments with my wife that I, that I, you know, I, I, I love.
• 59:08
  I remember going to a Christmas party one year at the Town
• 59:11
  Square Media and Megan was there.
• 59:13
  We were, I think twigs or whatever.
• 59:15
  And Dave Edel, no, I just talked about with his wife, Sarah.
• 59:19
  Megan was talking to a bunch of people and he just goes, man, he
• 59:21
  goes. Megan just really lights up the
• 59:23
  room. She's just one of those people
• 59:25
  that lights up the room. And I thought, I look over at my
• 59:27
  wife and I'm like, oh, she does light up the room.
• 59:29
  Or who? Do you know that?
• 59:31
  Of course you know. You, but you forget.
• 59:33
  Come on, you forget what you have right?
• 59:36
  And it makes it. It brings it back into focus for
• 59:40
  you when other people recognize it, right?
• 59:43
  Well. And I saw her because we take
• 59:44
  it, we take each other for granted.
• 59:46
  Dan Yes, yes, because. I and I just saw her recently.
• 59:49
  She I had to MC an event for her with the Sir Optimus here in
• 59:53
  Tri-City and she's the she was the president and she was
• 59:55
  stepping down. She's done her tenure, but she
• 59:58
  got up there and gave this amazing speech and it's one of
• 1:00:00
  those, you know, but but see, that's my problem is I when I
• 1:00:04
  see that I just want to RIP their clothes off.
• 1:00:05
  It's it's no, there's no in between.
• 1:00:08
  But I admire my wife. I yeah, when my wife, when my
• 1:00:11
  wife wears a dress, she's very attractive.
• 1:00:14
  And so she does not like, she does not like the fact that I
• 1:00:18
  want to put my hands all over her because she's I'm like, but
• 1:00:21
  you're hot right now. Great, so you're saying she
• 1:00:27
  should be? Thankful for that.
• 1:00:29
  Well, but oh, she hates it. She.
• 1:00:31
  Hates it. Oh God, she hates it.
• 1:00:34
  I've tried to help you. We need.
• 1:00:35
  We need to. We need to.
• 1:00:36
  Do a whole show on predictability, she says.
• 1:00:40
  I am the most predictable person that on she knows exactly what
• 1:00:44
  I'm going to do. Like I try, I try not to be.
• 1:00:47
  Is does does Jay does? Do you feel that way about Jay?
• 1:00:52
  Yes, he is very. Predictable where I feel like I
• 1:00:55
  it's harder for you touching your hair and.
• 1:00:58
  Your shoulder and you're like, okay, I know where this is
• 1:01:00
  going. Like, I know, I know, like.
• 1:01:02
  You know the moves and so it's like, yes, okay, but then I'm
• 1:01:06
  like, but what do you want? Me to do because, well, you can
• 1:01:10
  be spontaneous and romantic. I'm trying.
• 1:01:12
  What are you talking about? You're like, you put the dress
• 1:01:15
  on, isn't this? Right, right.
• 1:01:17
  Exactly. You know, but so she's so a
• 1:01:19
  great example is if we her biggest frustration is if we do
• 1:01:23
  date night, she says there's an. Expectation.
• 1:01:26
  On date night? As far as what?
• 1:01:29
  What? What is that?
• 1:01:31
  What you do something? No, it has to be.
• 1:01:35
  Romantic. Well, no, no, no, no, not for
• 1:01:38
  her. So, so a great example is so as
• 1:01:42
  a man, as a man on your anniversary and on your
• 1:01:46
  birthday, right? What?
• 1:01:49
  What do men? Expect I'm just throwing it out
• 1:01:52
  there. You could.
• 1:01:53
  I mean, maybe this is too personal, but let's the initials
• 1:01:56
  are AB. And AJ, is that correct?
• 1:01:59
  Well, that doesn't have to be that.
• 1:02:01
  Doesn't have to be that, but just sex in general.
• 1:02:04
  Wow. That's all you're asking for
• 1:02:05
  here. I'm showing for the stars.
• 1:02:07
  Well, I know that that other thing's good too.
• 1:02:09
  But but the funny, but I'm just saying though, she's like, but
• 1:02:13
  she's like, why can't we just go to dinner, you know, and, and we
• 1:02:16
  can and as she says, we can snuggle or we can, we can
• 1:02:20
  snuggle and watch ATV show. And if something happens, great.
• 1:02:23
  No, no, if something happens, great.
• 1:02:26
  But if it doesn't, you can't. Yeah, so.
• 1:02:30
  Have you ever come across those that that that situation?
• 1:02:33
  Like that's how made, but that's how Megan is.
• 1:02:36
  So it's like, so I'm like, I don't know what to do.
• 1:02:38
  I'm like, I don't know what to do.
• 1:02:40
  Oh gosh, yeah, that's right. And then?
• 1:02:41
  And then if I just try to ignore.
• 1:02:43
  Her for like weeks at a time in terms of that she she showed
• 1:02:46
  that's that's that's vacation for her there's.
• 1:02:50
  Yeah, there's gonna be upset. I thought she was going to be
• 1:02:53
  upset. Because you know you're not
• 1:02:55
  trying to make the moves on her, which means you know you're if I
• 1:02:58
  if I never made a move. On her her life would be great,
• 1:03:01
  she would be fine, but in the. Beginning, but in the beginning
• 1:03:04
  it was. Different.
• 1:03:05
  So I look back at my Facebook memories, all the nice things
• 1:03:09
  she used to say about me and not not.
• 1:03:12
  Anymore. Not well, I mean, I know.
• 1:03:14
  She I know she loves me. I know that but but so anybody
• 1:03:18
  got any good advice let me know because I I must I must I must
• 1:03:22
  suck at being married or something.
• 1:03:24
  I think. I think we should have a
• 1:03:25
  marriage. Counselor on before we have we
• 1:03:27
  should the interesting. Thing is but when I but then
• 1:03:30
  when I hear Micah talk about it and he's in the same boat, I'm
• 1:03:33
  like OK I don't feel too bad. I feel like this is a common.
• 1:03:37
  Running theme for married couples like you know you guys
• 1:03:40
  are not the only two with this issue right right and I think
• 1:03:44
  it's and. I think it's one way or the
• 1:03:46
  other. I think.
• 1:03:46
  I think it's flip flop. Sometimes it's the woman,
• 1:03:48
  sometimes it's the man. Brain so.
• 1:03:52
  And it. Depends, especially for.

  US women, depending on where we are in our lives.
• 1:03:56
  So if we're talking, you know, early 20s, yes, we have those
• 1:04:00
  hormones and we want to have sex all the time.
• 1:04:03
  And then once you start to have kids and get super focused on
• 1:04:07
  that, not so much. And then when we start to hit
• 1:04:10
  the older age, when we're, we're really more confident in our
• 1:04:14
  skin and then we are all, all those hormones start peeing
• 1:04:17
  around again and then we want sex all the time.
• 1:04:20
  So for women, I feel like it's a little bit different because
• 1:04:22
  we're going through those different seasons of life.
• 1:04:25
  Interesting and everything. Changes for.
• 1:04:27
  Us, especially relative to our hormones, and so that can really
• 1:04:31
  dictate where we are for us. So it sounds like Megan has not
• 1:04:36
  hit that. I'm waiting for the what?
• 1:04:39
  Is it the the golden bachelor or the golden The golden oldies
• 1:04:42
  tour? Waiting for the golden.
• 1:04:44
  She's 10 years younger so I I guess I got to wait for the
• 1:04:46
  Golden Oldies tour. Not that old, I mean.
• 1:04:49
  You know, once she starts, usually it's 40s, fifties ish
• 1:04:55
  when women start to hit that peak of our hormones.
• 1:05:00
  But the good news again, I know I'm not.
• 1:05:01
  Alone, not alone in that particular situation, but we but
• 1:05:05
  we laugh because she, I mean, at least I laugh.
• 1:05:07
  I don't. I don't think she laughs.
• 1:05:08
  But she goes you're as predict that you're just as predictable.
• 1:05:12
  Last thing. Yeah, I'm like, well, wouldn't
• 1:05:15
  you rather see me coming? That's what I was going to say,
• 1:05:18
  at least. She.
• 1:05:19
  Knows if she could prepare we go oh here we go right exactly I
• 1:05:23
  mean. Come on, I mean, wouldn't you
• 1:05:24
  write? Yeah, when?
• 1:05:25
  And anyway, So yeah, it's a it's a we could do a whole therapy
• 1:05:29
  session on that stuff. We need to get, we need to get a
• 1:05:31
  marriage counselor in here to be hilarious.
• 1:05:33
  Definitely. It would probably take more.
• 1:05:35
  Than an hour though be like, Oh yeah, we could sit.
• 1:05:39
  Well, unpack, unpack it all series.
• 1:05:41
  Well, we we should do an episode about love language because my
• 1:05:45
  as Megan tells me so I will do the dishes.
• 1:05:48
  I will do all these chores. Chores.
• 1:05:50
  It's called chore play. And she goes.
• 1:05:52
  That's not my love. Language SO, so, so yeah, we go
• 1:05:58
  around and around because I'm like, but look at me I, I did
• 1:06:00
  the dishes I, I cleaned the house I'm I'm ready.
• 1:06:03
  That's not my she goes. That's not my she goes, that's
• 1:06:06
  not my love language. So yeah.
• 1:06:10
  All right, Well, we were going to talk.
• 1:06:11
