- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for American mama's. Dear mama's, have
- 0:02Speaker 1: you ever told someone to get off your lawn?
- 0:04Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our Americ and mama's Mama Mama.
- 0:19Speaker 1: And joining us now are American mama is Terry Ediville
- 0:21Speaker 1: and Kimberlye Burlison. I kind of have, but it was
- 0:26Speaker 1: a long time ago.
- 0:26Speaker 2: I mean, like, liters very close.
- 0:31Speaker 1: You're old, stop shooting fireworks off on Christmas Eve because
- 0:36Speaker 1: we've got babies who are trying to go to bed.
- 0:40Speaker 1: It was Christmas Eve. It was Bailey's first Christmas Eve,
- 0:43Speaker 1: so our first Christmas Eve as parents, and we just
- 0:47Speaker 1: got him down and some kids down the street shart
- 0:49Speaker 1: and shooting off fireworks, and so I went out aside
- 0:53Speaker 1: and I was I chewed the kids out for shooting
- 0:55Speaker 1: off fireworks as Santa was supposed to be coming, and
- 0:58Speaker 1: they're all like, yes, sir, And then I'm walking back.
- 1:01Speaker 1: I'm twenty eight years old. I was going to say
- 1:03Speaker 1: you're young, and I'm like, I just told kids to
- 1:05Speaker 1: get off my law.
- 1:07Speaker 2: But something, Yes, when you have that baby, it does,
- 1:10Speaker 2: it does.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I have no problems telling those kids to get off.
- 1:13Speaker 1: So have you ever told anyone to get off your lawn.
- 1:15Speaker 3: I've never said that. I think that that whole thought
- 1:19Speaker 3: process is, are we now becoming those people? The old people?
- 1:23Speaker 3: And I think we were around before the internet, and
- 1:26Speaker 3: so we're seeing just how life is completely different now
- 1:28Speaker 3: because of the Internet. Because and so get off my
- 1:32Speaker 3: lawn is more. Can everybody just calm down? Can everybody
- 1:35Speaker 3: just kind of take a minute here? Can everybody just
- 1:38Speaker 3: kind of chill? And I think that comes from getting older?
- 1:40Speaker 3: Don't you wish that we had the wisdom in our
- 1:43Speaker 3: twenties that we only gain by getting older, you know,
- 1:47Speaker 3: because I feel like I wish people would chill these days.
- 1:50Speaker 3: It just seems like everyone is so uptight, you know,
- 1:53Speaker 3: just relax, It's all going to be okay. Remember Mom
- 1:56Speaker 3: said that to us all the time, It's always going
- 1:58Speaker 3: to work out, and we hated her saying that.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:00Speaker 1: But but isn't just everybody chill? Isn't like like a
- 2:03Speaker 1: gen X thing? I mean, you can go boomers or
- 2:06Speaker 1: more silent generation is like get off my lawn.
- 2:08Speaker 3: That's a gen X version of get off my lawnch.
- 2:11Speaker 1: It's just yeah, but that's like a gen X thing.
- 2:13Speaker 2: But yeah, okay, let me. Let me push back on
- 2:15Speaker 2: this a little bit, because when you're having an argument
- 2:19Speaker 2: with your spouse, okay, and that's I don't know what
- 2:22Speaker 2: that's like. Yeah, y'all really don't. Okay. So when Kevin
- 2:25Speaker 2: and I have an argument and it's getting it's a
- 2:28Speaker 2: loud Christian disagreement. If he tells me to freaking chill
- 2:34Speaker 2: or relax, yeah, I go opposite about one hundred and
- 2:38Speaker 2: eighty and it's not good. So I'm like, I just
- 2:41Speaker 2: that though. Yeah, yeah, that's a button, But I think
- 2:44Speaker 2: that it my way of handling the ones. Like I
- 2:49Speaker 2: think about the girls online that are trying to tell
- 2:53Speaker 2: you know their child is trying to tell parents how
- 2:55Speaker 2: to raise their children. Yeah, I roll my eyes. I'm
- 2:58Speaker 2: just like, oh, you'll see one day, hopefully see one day.
- 3:01Speaker 2: But I don't know. I don't know that i've ever.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I'm so impressed with this crew coming up. And I
- 3:08Speaker 2: told mine when they were little, I said, your crew
- 3:10Speaker 2: was going to save this country. I didn't know how,
- 3:12Speaker 2: I didn't know why or where that was even coming from.
- 3:16Speaker 2: But I'm so impressed, especially these kids that are coming
- 3:19Speaker 2: out of college, the ones that I've talked to and
- 3:23Speaker 2: they've got such good heads on their shoulders, and they
- 3:26Speaker 2: they laugh about their middle school or high school high
- 3:29Speaker 2: jinks and things like that. But they're so aware. They're
- 3:33Speaker 2: so polite to me.
- 3:34Speaker 1: So you don't mind them being on your lawn.
- 3:36Speaker 2: I don't mind.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Don't you feel like that you're a little fearful. I'm
- 3:43Speaker 3: fearful of people today that I wasn't earlier long ago. Well,
- 3:48Speaker 3: like certain kind of people. I don't know who's unhinged.
- 3:50Speaker 2: You know.
- 3:51Speaker 3: That's why if we're driving and Mike is is you know,
- 3:53Speaker 3: being too aggressive? I'm always saying, Mike, you don't know
- 3:56Speaker 3: what's going on. You don't know if they have a gun,
- 3:58Speaker 3: you don't know. Oh sorry, you told me. Well, I
- 4:00Speaker 3: was going to tell you. There's a I think I
- 4:02Speaker 3: sent it to you. And Lindsey a bride. She was
- 4:06Speaker 3: a girl who's getting married. She got on there and she,
- 4:09Speaker 3: you know, she looked like your typical you know. Anyway,
- 4:13Speaker 3: she got on there and she said, I don't want
- 4:15Speaker 3: to give advice. I don't want to give advice to
- 4:17Speaker 3: anybody who's getting married because right now it is hell
- 4:20Speaker 3: trying to plan a wedding. I sent out a disclaimer
- 4:24Speaker 3: to everybody that we invited. I said, let me tell
- 4:26Speaker 3: you something.
- 4:27Speaker 2: We are not going to tolerate any bigots, any racist,
- 4:31Speaker 2: any whatever at our wedding. This day is about Ryan
- 4:34Speaker 2: and I. In my head, I'm thinking it's Ryan and me.
- 4:36Speaker 2: But go ahead, and she said, she goes, this is
- 4:39Speaker 2: the weddings about Ryan and I. And not only that,
- 4:42Speaker 2: but we will throw you out. My bride, my maid
- 4:45Speaker 2: of honor, my matron of honor. They're going to have
- 4:47Speaker 2: swords on their back and they're going to be my security.
- 4:50Speaker 2: So if you come in here with that kind of attitude,
- 4:53Speaker 2: I thought, well, what a peach. Oh get off alone,
- 4:57Speaker 2: I said. I told Kevin, I said, this is what
- 4:59Speaker 2: I said in a message to oh unhinge Jessica and
- 5:04Speaker 2: Ryan and say, look, hey, we're gonna get you something
- 5:08Speaker 2: really cool from your registry. Uh we just cannot make
- 5:11Speaker 2: it this year, but good luck to y'all. I don't
- 5:13Speaker 2: want to go where she's saying, you better not be hateful,
- 5:16Speaker 2: even and she's saying it with the most hateful look.
- 5:19Speaker 2: She's saying, this is what y'all can do. If you
- 5:21Speaker 2: need somebody to look to for advice, this is me.
- 5:25Speaker 2: I'm gonna send it to y'all. You and Wendy it is.
- 5:27Speaker 1: I have actually yes, and I feel like I should
- 5:31Speaker 1: get them a NERF sword because they want to role
- 5:34Speaker 1: plays as so, I guess.
- 5:36Speaker 2: You do have some in that generation that still have
- 5:38Speaker 2: work to do.
- 5:39Speaker 1: But overall, okay, so so you have you guys haven't
- 5:43Speaker 1: done as much yelling at kids to get off your
- 5:45Speaker 1: line as I have our heads.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I wonder if they could do that. I wonder if
- 5:52Speaker 2: if this generation, because they're able to say whatever they
- 5:53Speaker 2: want whenever they want, I wonder if they're able to
- 5:55Speaker 2: do like that and just have that quiet strength I like.
