  I got excited, and he got excited, and it was just a ripple effect.
• 0:15
  Rex is very on edge, and he barks all the time now.
• 0:19
  So tell me, why is Rex on edge these days?
• 0:22
  Because Dylan- got a puppy for his birthday- from his girlfriend.
• 0:28
  And Clifford- Mm-hmm who is the cutest- He's, he's 100% adorable.
• 0:34
  He doesn't even wanna hear us now, you know.
• 0:35
  So yes, my new granddog- Yeah Clifford is, he is the cutest little guy.
• 0:40
  Yeah.
• 0:40
  He's very rambunctious, very hyper, and very much a lab puppy.
• 0:44
  He's a puppy, yeah.
• 0:45
  So he keeps us on our toes.
• 0:47
  Uh-huh.
• 0:47
  Rex- Mm-hmm is trying to love him.
• 0:52
  Yeah.
• 0:53
  It's...
• 0:53
  Puppies are so hard.
• 0:55
  Yeah.
• 0:56
  So you guys got him in November-ish?
• 0:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 0:59
  So he's, nine months-ish old- Mm almost?
• 1:01
  Yes.
• 1:03
  Yes.
• 1:04
  They're, they're like newborns.
• 1:05
  But we're doing training- Mm-hmm which is going pretty good.
• 1:08
  Good.
• 1:09
  We have, the e-collar- Okay that we just started using- Yeah this week.
• 1:13
  And- Like a buzzy thing?
• 1:14
  Uh-huh.
• 1:15
  Eh, but it's not well, there is shock on it- Right but we don't use the shock.
• 1:17
  Yeah.
• 1:17
  We just use the vibration.
• 1:18
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:19
  And that has been a game changer.
• 1:22
  Good.
• 1:23
  It's not even on if like...
• 1:25
  And he just hears the vibration, he- Yeah stops in his tracks.
• 1:27
  Perfect.
• 1:28
  Perfect.
• 1:29
  That's good.
• 1:29
  Yeah.
• 1:30
  At least something's getting through to him.
• 1:31
  Mm-hmm, yeah.
• 1:33
  But he is adorable.
• 1:34
  He is so sweet, and when he's tired- Oh, yeah he is so sweet.
• 1:37
  Yeah.
• 1:38
  But I've got bruises everywhere, I've got scratches everywhere- Oh, he's- bites everywhere questionable.
• 1:42
  Yeah.
• 1:43
  So...
• 1:43
  But- And that's because of Clifford.
• 1:45
  Yes.
• 1:46
  And I love his name.
• 1:47
  Yes.
• 1:47
  I think he should've been named Dennis the Menace.
• 1:49
  Oh, 100%.
• 1:50
  Yeah.
• 1:50
  But yes, Clifford, it like, it just fits him.
• 1:53
  And he is just a goofball.
• 1:55
  He is.
• 1:56
  I don't know if he's gonna outgrow much of that.
• 1:58
  I don't think so.
• 1:59
  Like, he's all personality.
• 2:01
  Yeah.
• 2:01
  Like 100%.
• 2:02
  Well, I have seen many of the videos you've made and shared on socials, because they have their own social, right?
• 2:08
  They do.
• 2:09
  Yeah, they have their own TikTok.
• 2:10
  Oh my gosh, it makes me laugh.
• 2:11
  Yeah.
• 2:11
  It makes me laugh.
• 2:12
  What's their TikTok?
• 2:13
  Rex and Clifford.
• 2:14
  Very creative.
• 2:17
  But, they're polar, polar opposites- Mm-hmm in personality, and Clifford wants Rex to love him so much.
• 2:25
  Yeah.
• 2:25
  And Rex is like,"Bro, back up." Get up off me Very much like that cartoon when we were growing up where it was the big bulldog and the little yappy dog, like,"Hey, Spike.
• 2:35
  Hey, Spike." Mm.
• 2:35
  And yeah, that kind of thing.
• 2:37
  Yeah.
• 2:37
  Clifford wants to cuddle so bad with Rex, and he'll slowly like inch over to where Rex is laying.
• 2:43
  And he does this lean, And then he makes this face like- is he gonna, is he gonna bite me?
• 2:46
  Is he gonna bite me?
• 2:48
  Is it coming?
• 2:48
  That's adorable.
• 2:50
  So.
• 2:51
  Oh my gosh.
• 2:51
  And then I'll catch them, too, I'll walk in the room and they'll be like laying next to each other.
• 2:54
  Rex not so much.- It's not Rex's choice.
• 2:56
  It's- Right totally Clifford.
• 2:57
  He's like held hostage.
• 2:58
  Yeah.
• 2:59
  Clifford snuggles.
• 3:00
  I'll catch them snuggling, and then they like both look at me like,"You caught us." Yeah, yeah.
• 3:04
  Oh, I love it, though.
• 3:06
  Mm-hmm.
• 3:06
  So he's doing pretty good at night though, right?
• 3:10
  Yeah, well, he's sleeping in with Dylan.
• 3:11
  Yeah.
• 3:12
  Out of the crate.
• 3:13
  This week he'll be in crate'cause Dylan's at the beach.
• 3:15
  Yeah.
• 3:15
  But, That's the, one of the hardest parts though is getting up with him every so many hours when they're newborns.
• 3:21
  He actually did great from the start.
• 3:23
  Good.
• 3:23
  The first A couple of nights- Mm-hmm um, was a little rough, but he was, seven weeks- Right eight weeks old.
• 3:28
  Right.
• 3:28
  Um, but after that, he's been great.
• 3:30
  Good.
• 3:31
  Yeah.
• 3:31
  I mean, as far as that goes.
• 3:32
  As far as that goes.
• 3:34
  He loves to eat Dylan's, Hey Dudes.
• 3:36
  He loves Hey Dudes.
• 3:38
  Oh my gosh.
• 3:38
  Um, Dylan has lost, four pairs so far, I think, and a pair, two pairs of Crocs.
• 3:43
  Labs are chewers, right?
• 3:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 3:44
  Like, they are big chewers.
• 3:46
  Yes.
• 3:46
  Very much so.
• 3:47
  I- Yeah spend a lot of money on- bones and treats.
• 3:50
  On hiding things from them.
• 3:51
  So I saw, like, the wooly mammoth bone over there.
• 3:55
  It's a rib.
• 3:56
  From a wooly mammoth.
• 3:59
  Oh, so I went to get, a new collar for Clifford'cause the trainer said he needed a different type of collar, Yeah Working on walking.
• 4:06
  Yeah.
• 4:07
  So- Like a harness thing?
• 4:07
  No, actually she said harnesses are not good for big dogs.
• 4:10
  For little dogs they're fine.
• 4:11
  Okay.
• 4:11
  But for big dogs they're counterintuitive.
• 4:13
  Mm.
• 4:14
  If they're pullers.
• 4:15
  Okay.
• 4:15
  It gives them more leverage- Oh against you.
• 4:18
  Oh, okay.
• 4:19
  So, I went to the pet store to go get the new collar, and I'm like,"Do you have anything for, like, super aggressive chewers?" Mm-hmm.
• 4:27
  "Because I am spending too much money- Right on-" I just cashed out my 401to get some bones.
• 4:33
  Yeah.
• 4:33
  Yeah.
• 4:33
  Pretty much.
• 4:34
  And so she's like,"Oh, well, try these ribs." And she's like,"And then, um, there's, is a bullhorn." Yeah.
• 4:40
  And so I got...
• 4:41
  I only, I didn't think that he would like the bullhorn.
• 4:44
  He's not as much of a chewer- Mm-hmm as the puppy.
• 4:48
  Yeah.
• 4:48
  So I only got one of those, but they both like it, so I'm gonna have to go back and get- Yeah a second one.
• 4:51
  Does it seem to be lasting, though?
• 4:53
  Eh, well, that's been- That- Like, since last weekend there's, there's pretty, there's a lot left on- Yeah on the wooly mammoth- Yeah and the horn.
• 4:59
  Um, the horn is, like, still pretty much- Good, okay together, so.
• 5:03
  One of our dogs is a bigger chewer than the other, and ours is our boxer He's the one who wants to chew.
• 5:08
  The hound mix, hound and boxer, she's not into it.
• 5:11
  She wants to play with a ball.
• 5:12
  That's her thing.
• 5:13
  Well, Clifford likes that, too.
• 5:16
  Don't get me wrong.
• 5:17
  He is not a one-dimensional dog.
• 5:19
  And he loves to tear apart anything that has stuffing- Oh, yeah whether it be a stuffed animal or a pillow.
• 5:25
  Oh.
• 5:25
  So Dylan had, four pillows that have been de-fluffed.
• 5:30
  Oh, Clifford's just giving it to Dylan left and right, isn't he?
• 5:34
  So, yeah, we're working on it.
• 5:37
  Well, he's adorable.
• 5:38
  I love him.
• 5:39
  Same we'll get there.
• 5:40
  But he won't be on the pod- Yeah because, he will be trying to eat the microphone.
• 5:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 5:44
  Yeah.
• 5:44
  Well, you know, we already have one star.
• 5:46
  Yes.
• 5:46
  You cannot have two.
• 5:47
  Tell me, what else has been going on?
• 5:49
  Dylan graduated.
• 5:51
  He did.
• 5:52
  So- I can't believe it.
• 5:52
  Congratulations thank you.
• 5:54
  You were there for it.
• 5:54
  I was there for it.
• 5:56
  Yeah.
• 5:56
  Of course.
• 5:57
  So- I'm glad I was able to be there that was, that was something.
• 6:00
  Yeah, yeah.
• 6:02
  I kind of got in my, in my feelings a little bit about it.
• 6:05
  Of course, yeah.
• 6:05
  But he did, you know, he passed.
• 6:07
  Yeah.
• 6:07
  He got through it.
• 6:08
  So I got Jackson's, uh, report card in the mail today.
• 6:11
  They go, they take their exams, and then they're like, they're done.
• 6:13
  They never want to go to that place again, even though there's like another week of school left.
• 6:16
  So I got it in, and I sent him a picture of it.
• 6:19
  He did not do great in Spanish Two, and he did not do great in Statistical Mathematics.
• 6:25
  I'm okay with both of- He passed.
• 6:27
  So, I- That's all that matters right.
• 6:29
  I sent him a, Snap of the envelope, and I was like,"Should I be worried?" And it's like, To the parents of Jackson Hill.
• 6:35
  And he was like,"No, bro, we got this." And I opened it and sent it to him, and it was like, you know, 100 or, in football class, obviously.
• 6:41
  Yeah.
• 6:42
  And then, you know, Bs, and then like a 70, which it is passing.
• 6:47
  And he was like,"I'm so tough." And I was like,"Well, you passed." Is that a C?
• 6:52
  I would take a C.
• 6:53
  Cs get degrees.
• 6:56
  Hey, as long as it's not a F.
• 6:58
  I know.
• 6:59
  I know.
• 6:59
  And he had to work really hard to e- Let me take that back.
• 7:03
  He doesn't work hard at anything.
• 7:05
  No.
• 7:08
  Catch a ball.
• 7:08
  He, y- yes, when he's not broken.
• 7:10
  But he's not a bring books home and study kind of kid.
• 7:12
  He is like,"I'll just do my best and see what happens." Yeah.
• 7:15
  Dylan's not a studier.
• 7:16
  Oh, no.
• 7:18
  No.
• 7:18
  Mm-mm.
• 7:18
  So we'll see how that serves them in the future.
• 7:20
  But, anyway, Dylan- He made it.
• 7:23
  That's all I care about.
• 7:24
  He made it.
• 7:24
  Dylan made it.
• 7:25
  I'm so proud of him, and he's got a new job, right?
• 7:29
  Yes, he did.
• 7:29
  He started his new job this week.
• 7:30
  He really likes it.
• 7:32
  Good.
• 7:32
  He worked for a week, and now he's going on vacation for a week.
• 7:34
  That's okay.
• 7:35
  That's okay.
• 7:36
  So did he go for like a grad week kind of thing?
• 7:38
  I think it was his second week, I guess.
• 7:39
  No, his, friend Fisher, invited him to go.
• 7:42
  They go for like a week, just like a family vacay.
• 7:44
  Nice.
• 7:44
  And it's, they're going deep sea fishing and- Love it all the boy things.
• 7:47
  All the boy things.
• 7:48
  Yeah.
• 7:49
  I've never been deep sea fishing.
• 7:50
  I did once.
• 7:53
  I wasn't a fan.
• 7:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 7:54
  I, I don't fish- Yeah so like it's just not for me anyway.
• 7:56
  Yeah.
• 7:56
  And I take that back.
• 7:57
  We went on an excursion, which is like- Oh, yeah they, we didn't actually fish, like we drank.
• 8:01
  When you're on a banana boat and they're playing Caribbean music and passing around the punch, you're not really fishing.
• 8:06
  Yeah.
• 8:07
  They just have like the poles like set up.
• 8:08
  Yeah.
• 8:08
  And they're like,"Oh, the, the...
• 8:09
  If you wanna reel it in when it comes in, like let us- let us know." And I was like- Far past.
• 8:15
  Yeah I don't wanna touch...
• 8:16
  I don't even wanna see it.
• 8:17
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:17
  Like, we can stay in the water.
• 8:19
  Right.
• 8:19
  You can stay in the water.
• 8:20
  Take care of that.
• 8:20
  Actually, I don't even want a pole.
• 8:22
  Nope.
• 8:22
  Bring me another- Just- fruity, fruity drink.
• 8:24
  Just let me tan.
• 8:25
  Yeah.
• 8:26
  Yeah., But.
• 8:27
  he loves fishing.
• 8:28
  He loves doing all that stuff.
• 8:31
  Yeah.
• 8:31
  The thought of fishing sounds so relaxing when you think of like on a pond and it's quiet.
• 8:36
  I don't think so.
• 8:38
  But- No then I start thinking about all the bugs, and then just sitting there and not being able to do anything else.
• 8:43
  I'm such a doer.
• 8:45
  I can't sit still.
• 8:46
  Right.
• 8:46
  Like, that's like too much like- Right calmness.
• 8:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:50
  That's not for me.
• 8:51
  It's not for me either, because I'm usually listening to a podcast or a book, I'm doing something, and I might be texting somebody at the same time.
• 8:58
  It is never...
• 8:59
  And that's not good for us, right?
• 9:00
  We need to be able to- I can step back for a minute, but- No it, I don't like...
• 9:05
  the voices in my head get so loud.
• 9:08
  I told Dylan.
• 9:09
  If I stop going and doing all the things at once, I probably would just start crying.
• 9:16
  Like- Yeah legit, if I let my mind just like settle- Fall apart it would take me in all the bad directions.
• 9:22
  Yeah.
• 9:23
  So I was like- Yeah"Yeah, s- sitting still is not for me." Well, just keep her busy.
• 9:26
  Yeah.
• 9:26
  Just keep her busy.
• 9:27
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:27
  Keep her moving.
• 9:28
  Yep.
• 9:28
  Yeah.
• 9:28
  So that's, I just keep going.
• 9:30
  Yeah.
• 9:30
  Just keep swimming.
• 9:31
  Just keep swimming.
• 9:32
  I hear you, Dory.
• 9:33
  Touch the butt.
• 9:35
  Well, he's gone for the whole week?
• 9:37
  Yeah.
• 9:38
  He'll be back Sunday.
• 9:39
  I'm like,"That's a lot of Clifford." That is a lot of Clifford.
• 9:42
  I had told Brian last year that I wanted to go, like in football practice for the summer, they get a dead week.
• 9:48
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:48
  And they don't practice on Fridays.
• 9:50
  So essentially they get, after practice on Thursday, then they're free all the way until like that Monday in 10 days.
• 9:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:59
  And I had told Brian last year, I wanna go after Jackson gets out of practice on Thursday, and we're gonna go and be gone for like 12 days somewhere, and I don't wanna do anything work-related.
• 10:09
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:10
  Ask me if I've even booked anything yet.
• 10:12
  And this is in like three weeks.
• 10:14
  Nope, I can't pull the trigger.
• 10:15
  I don't know what's wrong with me.
• 10:17
  I cannot pull the trigger I don't even know where we're going.
• 10:20
  I don't even know what we're gonna do.
• 10:21
  You just gotta, like, open up a map and blindfolds, I guess.
• 10:24
  Yeah, I think so.
• 10:25
  I might...
• 10:25
  I'm stressing myself out about it.
• 10:27
  Okay, so I'm like this when I shop.
• 10:29
  When I go to the mall, I wanna look at every store and look at everything, and then circle back and buy everything.
• 10:35
  I don't go to the mall.
• 10:35
  I just shop online.
• 10:36
  Well, yeah, that too now.
• 10:37
  But, like, when I was younger- Yeah and I would go, I would wanna go to The Limited and Express and about, you know, my favorite places.
• 10:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:43
  And then look at everything, and then I'd circle back, and I'd buy the things that I wanted, but I wanted to see what everybody had first.
• 10:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:51
  And now I feel like I'm doing that on Airbnb.
• 10:54
  So anything else happening fun?
• 10:56
  I thought about maybe starting to date, and then I was like,"No," because I'm scared of people.
• 11:02
  And I decided that like I probably have not been to date.
• 11:09
  It's a whole different world.
• 11:11
  But the last time I had to like talk in a dating way- Mm to somebody was when I was 16.
• 11:19
  Yeah, and things are so different now.
• 11:22
  Are you terrified?
• 11:23
  I was like- Really"I can't do this." Well, it's, it's just like they're, you're always accessible, and they don't just want a call, they want a video call.
• 11:34
  Mm-mm.
• 11:35
  Like- Mm-mm.
• 11:37
  Right.
• 11:37
  People are scary.
• 11:38
  Like, I'm scared.
• 11:39
  And people are scary.
• 11:40
  So I was scrolling on social before I came over here and just going through reels and stuff, and it was dating of the'80s.
• 11:47
  And it was like these women, who were probably in their 40s, well, they were probably younger, they just looked like they were in their 40s'cause all the- The hair and makeup and the- Mm-hmm.
• 11:56
  And they were like,"What's your best quality?" And she's like,"I own a timeshare." And they were like,"What do you have on your nightstand?" And this dude, who you don't wanna think about this with, is like,"I have whipped cream on my nightsta-" Yeah, just- I think dating was probably scary in the'80s too.
• 12:14
  But the'90s and 2000s when you and I were dating- Yeah it was great.
• 12:19
  Well, we weren't dating each other.
• 12:21
  Well, that did sound like we were.
• 12:24
  We were not.
• 12:25
  If I'd have met you first...
• 12:26
  Yeah.
• 12:27
  100%.
• 12:28
  It would've saved a lot of- Lot of heartache headaches and heartache.
• 12:34
  That's hilarious.
• 12:35
  Yeah, so.
• 12:36
  That's funny.
• 12:36
  I get on every freaking, like, a random dude's messaging all the time.
• 12:41
  Some dude on Facebook just, messaged.
• 12:43
  I'm like,"Do I know you?" I mean,'cause I'd met so many people when we were doing cornhole stuff- Yeah at, different events.
• 12:48
  Yeah.
• 12:48
  And so people would randomly message me, just go,"Oh, hey.
• 12:50
  What's up?" Right.
• 12:51
  And I'm like,"Oh, do we, do I know you?" And- That feels different though than now.
• 12:56
  Yeah.
• 12:57
  Well, uh, but like I still get like random stuff like,"Oh, are you still doing?" Okay.
• 13:00
  And I'm like,"No." So this guy messages and he's like,"Oh, hey." And I'm like, do I know you?" Mm-hmm.
• 13:08
  And he's like,"Well, you look really familiar." And I'm like,"Okay.
• 13:10
  Well, who are you?" Like- Yeah and he's like,"Oh, well, I- maybe you're one of my client's family members." And I'm like,"Well, what do you do?" Yeah.
• 13:19
  And he's like,"I do construct- or remodeling or something like that." I'm like,"Yeah, no." No.
• 13:24
  Don't think so.
• 13:24
  I don't think that we know each other.
• 13:25
  And so I just left it at that, like- Yeah didn't accept his friend request and just left it at that.
• 13:29
  He messages me like,"Good morning, beautiful," and sends me like reels.
• 13:33
  And I'm like,"We don't know each other.
• 13:35
  What are you doing?" Yeah.
• 13:38
  He's just shooting his shot, man.
• 13:40
  Shoot your shot somewhere else.
• 13:41
  Heck yeah.
• 13:42
  You would think that like the non-responses was a response.
• 13:45
  It's crazy to me.
• 13:46
  My self-esteem, I couldn't...
• 13:48
  If I, if I just didn't get a response or like a, on read or whatever, or whatever the kids say these days- Mm-hmm I would be...
• 13:57
  No, I couldn't handle that.
• 13:58
  I couldn't handle the rejection of nothing.
• 14:02
  But they don't think that.
• 14:04
  They just keep...
• 14:04
  They're bolder behind a, you know, keyboard warrior.
• 14:08
  But he he's been bold.
• 14:09
  He doesn't need to be bold.
• 14:13
  Wait, is he loaded?
• 14:15
  I don't know.
• 14:16
  I don't...
• 14:16
  his profile picture, he's got, a younger daughter, and I'm like,"That's a no for me." Oh, no.
• 14:20
  Yeah, no, no.
• 14:21
  Where I'm at right now, I'm not ready to take on any kind of- Uh-huh, 100%, I get that anything.
• 14:27
  I do think we need to start asking, though, for a credit report.
• 14:31
  Oh, no, there's gonna be a whole background check.
• 14:33
  Oh, so I told you, though, my friend's a police officer- Yes in Charlotte, and her, ex-husband was a air marshal, and so he told me when I'm ready to start dating, they've got, tons and tons of, people that they can introduce me to, and if I'm- Resources and if I'm not comfortable going on the date, that one of them will chaperone me and, like, sit two tables away.
• 14:52
  Sweetie, I appreciate the offer, but that's my job, is to wear a hat and a trench coat and sit two tables away.
• 14:59
  So inconspicuous.
• 15:01
  Nobody would ever guess it was me.
• 15:04
  I'm like,"Mm, I'd say I'd probably end up crying on the date," and that's just not- I feel like that's a movie.
• 15:11
  That's not the vibe I'm trying to go with.
• 15:14
  I feel like that's a movie.
• 15:16
  Like, my life is like a Lifetime movie.
• 15:20
  But we're, we're turning into the, the happy- Hallmark?
• 15:24
  Uh-huh, uh-huh.
• 15:25
  We're, we're moving away from the, Lifetime chaos movie, and we're moving into a, the happy Hallmark movie.
• 15:31
  I like that thought process.
• 15:34
  Well, we're here.
• 15:34
  I like that.
• 15:35
  Yeah.
• 15:36
  So yeah.
• 15:37
  Dylan told me to date a tattoo artist so he can- Yeah get some more tattoos.
• 15:40
  Such a great idea.
• 15:41
  I was like,"Find me a single one.
• 15:43
  If there's any single, tall-" Like, the vibe of, like, badass, but, like, will be really nice to me out there.
• 15:51
  Uh-huh.
• 15:51
  Uh-huh.
• 15:52
  Yeah.
• 15:52
  I, I mean, put it out there.
• 15:53
  Yeah.
• 15:53
  Go for it.
• 15:54
  Tattoo artists could be really beneficial.
• 15:57
  Like, the whole vibe.
• 15:58
  Oh, yeah.
• 16:00
  Some of them, though.
• 16:00
  Like, some of them- Yeah like, not so much, but- Right some of them have that- Yeah vibe.
• 16:05
  Yeah.
• 16:05
  Absolutely.
• 16:06
  I, I've got, like, probably the worst taste in men, so.
• 16:09
  Well, that's okay.
• 16:10
  Oh, maybe I need to go with the complete opposite.
• 16:14
  No.
• 16:15
  Let's just wait and see what happens.
• 16:16
  The accountant.
• 16:18
  No, I feel like they're mean at home.
• 16:20
  Mm.
• 16:21
  Could be.
• 16:22
  I don't know.
• 16:22
  I feel like the ones who look clean cut and nice are the scary ones at home, Everybody's crazy.
• 16:28
  I think so.
• 16:29
  That's just life.
• 16:29
  I really do.
• 16:29
  It scares me.
• 16:30
  Yeah.
• 16:30
  It scares me to date.
• 16:32
  It's a whole fear Well, just, just enjoy all the voices in your head for now All the voices in my head.
• 16:41
  And we'll, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
• 16:43
  That reminded me, did you see the baby raves?
• 16:46
  No.
• 16:46
  So there's this DJ who used to, do raves- Uh-huh in the UK, and he started raves for, toddlers and their parents, like during the day.
• 16:56
  Oh my goodness.
• 16:57
  I was like, where was this when Dylan was- That's so up his alley.
• 17:02
  he, remixed, like, the Wheels On The Bus and like- Oh my God you know, all of these.
• 17:05
  So what are the...
• 17:05
  Are the toddlers just like bouncing?
• 17:06
  Oh yeah, They all got glow sticks and like, oh, like they glow- Oh, I love it and they, like- They're going for it going for it.
• 17:11
  Oh my gosh, that's great.
• 17:12
  He would have had the best time.
• 17:14
  That would be great.
• 17:15
  Yeah.
• 17:15
  So that was, my teenage years was raves.
• 17:18
  So I was like, where was this when Dylan- Uh-huh was little.
• 17:22
  He likes concerts and he likes doing all that kind of stuff.
• 17:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 17:25
  Yeah.
• 17:26
  The Radio Groove Owl.
• 17:26
  Mm-hmm.
• 17:27
  Y'all went to that one, right?
• 17:28
  I saw that they were coming back at some point.
• 17:30
  Yeah, but so they're getting a lot more popular now.
• 17:32
  Mm.
• 17:33
  Um, I think the first concert we went to, the tickets were like$89- Mm-hmm each, and then the second one was like 130- Mm-hmm each.
• 17:42
  For the pit tickets it was like 200 and something each.
• 17:45
  Dylan's like,"Well, we already...
• 17:46
  We went to so- went to the last two.
• 17:47
  Like, let's take this one off." Yeah.
• 17:49
  And then Ticketmaster's fees- Oh my like all their extra fees, it was like$600.
• 17:54
  I do not understand all of the fees on things.
• 17:57
  I will never understand why there's a handling fee when you're emailing me my ticket.
• 18:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 18:02
  The...
• 18:02
  It will never make sense to me.
• 18:04
  Yeah.
• 18:05
  Ever.
• 18:05
  Yeah.
• 18:06
  We've been watching the basketball playoffs, and now they're, like, in the championship series I guess is what it's called, and I was scrolling on X last night while we were watching the game and something popped up with how much the tickets cost.
• 18:18
  And floor side seats, it was game two out of seven- Mm-hmm were$50,000.
• 18:26
  And wait, I might have that wrong.
• 18:28
  Might've been, might be game three is$50,000.
• 18:31
  But anyway, still ludicrous.
• 18:32
  And then the next game after whichever one I was looking at were, like,$200,000 per ticket for the floor.
• 18:42
  That is insane to me.
• 18:44
  Mm-mm.
• 18:45
  I cannot imagine- I need to date somebody that can afford that.
• 18:47
  Yeah, that's why I was asking for the credit check.
• 18:50
  Oh, and yeah, so in the questionnaire we can just be real...
• 18:53
  'Cause apparently we're gonna make a questionnaire, survey, something, I don't know, application.
• 18:57
  Yeah.
• 18:57
  Whatever we wanna call it.
• 18:58
  Um, we're gonna ask, like,"What's the most extravagant event you've ever been to?" Like, we're gonna be subtle with the questions.
• 19:05
  And if they say,"Well, I've been to the Super Bowl, da, da, da," we're gonna be,"Okay, check." Yeah.
• 19:11
  If he's like, you know,"I went to the monster truck rally when it was in Bessemer City, North Carolina," we're gonna be like,"Er." No shade against Bessemer City or monster trucks.
• 19:25
  Well.
• 19:26
  You know what?
• 19:27
  I, I married for love last time.
• 19:29
  Rich bunny this time.
• 19:32
  Absolutely.
• 19:32
  I- I'll tell, I'll tell Brian my next husband's gonna be rich.
• 19:35
  Well- Facebook show, you know, my algorithm changes, weekly now and I hate it.
• 19:40
  I'm back to animals, which I'm happy about but- Oh, yeah but before it was, like, where to meet rich men and, like, like, these videos of these, like, dating coaches in Charlotte.
• 19:50
  And I was like,"Why am I getting- Oh my gosh dating coaches?" That's hilarious.
• 19:55
  Yeah.
• 19:56
  So, We're gonna get Will Smith, Hitch come in here and...
• 20:00
  No, it was these female dating coaches and, where you're supposed to go to, to meet.
• 20:05
  And I'm like, first of all, one, I am such a, jeans and a T-shirt or, shorts.
• 20:09
  Uh-huh.
• 20:09
  Like, I am not, a dress up.
• 20:11
  Yeah.
• 20:12
  Are we supposed to dress up again?
• 20:13
  I know.
• 20:14
  Well, I guess if you're trying to, like, bag a- I, I guess a millionaire, you gotta- Well, yeah, I guess.
• 20:20
  I'm, I'm just not that- No not like that.
• 20:24
  Not.
• 20:24
  But we can do it.
• 20:25
  I used to be, like, very dress up.
• 20:27
  I have very much not do that now.
• 20:31
  Well, because we don't have places to go that that's needed- Yeah maybe.
• 20:34
  I used to have, so many pairs of stiletto heels- Oh, yeah for every single outfit.
• 20:40
  Yeah.
• 20:40
  My closet was lined with heels.
• 20:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 20:45
  When I quit working at the eye doctor's office and started working more in the tech world, because I had worn scrubs for so long, I did not know how to, dress an outfit for, business casual or business.
• 20:59
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:00
  It was the weirdest thing to be like,"What do I wear now, guys?"'Cause, you know, you go out, you wear a certain thing.
• 21:07
  You wear your scrubs, but that, that business part is, is different, so.
• 21:11
  Yeah.
• 21:11
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:12
  I mean, now I can dress for, like, a yacht if I can just wear a bathing suit.
• 21:17
  Perfect.
• 21:17
  I'm sure they would not mind if you just wore a bathing suit, so.
• 21:20
  So- And, and the captain's hat.
• 21:22
  I, I could do...
• 21:23
  I, I look cute in a hat.
• 21:24
  Yeah, you do.
• 21:25
  Yeah.
• 21:25
  You really do.
• 21:26
  Um, speaking of algorithm, I had a really, really, really bad day on May 2nd.
• 21:31
  Really bad day.
• 21:31
  It's the day that Jackson broke his collarbone.
• 21:33
  Okay.
• 21:33
  Yes.
• 21:34
  Before that I had a wedding that day.
• 21:36
  It was just, like, a six-hour wedding.
• 21:38
  Not a big deal, just going and doing the things.
• 21:40
  Backing out of my garage on the way to the wedding, I rammed into Jackson's car.
• 21:46
  I'm talking- I was going pretty fast.
• 21:50
  'Cause I, like, I was backing up and, like, turning so I could go forward out of the- Mm-hmm the way my, my, my driveway is.
• 21:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:57
  Um, and Brian's like,"Why don't you just go all the way back backwards?" And I was like,"'Cause I can't drive backwards." And he was like,"Obviously." So I had already done that, so I was rattled about that.
• 22:07
  Then got to the wedding, and it's always kinda, you know, just nerve-wracking getting everything set, making sure you have everything done at the right time, and then I get the call about Jackson's collarbone, and they're taking him, they had to take him to the urgent care, and his stats dropped.
• 22:21
  So he was playing rugby and he got tackled and it happened.
• 22:23
  but his stats dropped at the urgent care and he almost blacked out.
• 22:27
  Come to find out his pulse was really weak, his blood pressure was, like, 60 over 40.
• 22:33
  Like, real- all, all the dangerous things.
• 22:34
  His lab results, like, came back just not even making any sense because apparently his adrenaline had just, yeah, wiped him out So he was at urgent care and they had to transport him via ambulance to the hospital, to the emergency room, and that was a lot- Yeah with me not being there.
• 22:50
  Right.
• 22:50
  I'm in the middle of something that I'm trying to build.
• 22:53
  I could not walk away.
• 22:54
  Brian's a great father.
• 22:56
  Yeah.
• 22:56
  He took care of it.
• 22:57
  Jaz was there'cause she was working.
• 22:59
  But anyway, during all this, I'm pulling up something on my phone.
• 23:02
  I needed to figure out how to do something at the wedding, like the, you know, the Steno things that go- Yeah under the heat things.
• 23:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 23:09
  I could not figure something out.
• 23:11
  So I go into TikTok or whatever to, look it up, and it said something about,"Do you need a mental health evaluation" or something.
• 23:18
  I was like,"How did you know?" Like, how did it know to pop up?
• 23:24
  It was the craziest thing and I, I took a screenshot of it'cause I was like, Okay.
• 23:28
  Like, I know you listen to everything that I say, and I guess that's where you're getting it from." But that was just super, super crazy.
• 23:36
  I bypassed the mental health check.
• 23:39
  I am okay.
• 23:40
  Well, I'm glad, and I'm glad that Jackson's healing.
• 23:43
  He is.
• 23:44
  He is.
• 23:44
  By the time this drops, we'll be at six and a half weeks, which will be over halfway- Mm'cause 12 weeks is, like, 100%.
• 23:51
  So he's getting there.
• 23:52
  It's, really rough with it being the summer before his senior season with football.
• 23:57
  This is when he should be at the camps and making the contacts and having the conversations.
• 24:02
  So I tell myself every day, God knew this was gonna happen a long time ago." Yeah.
• 24:07
  And- Everything happens for a reason it does.
• 24:09
  And, and you know, sometimes you don't wanna hear that- Yeah you know what I'm saying?
• 24:12
  Mm-hmm.
• 24:12
  I have to remind myself, it's part of the plan.
• 24:14
  This is part of His plan.
• 24:15
  Yeah.
• 24:15
  But anyway, he'll, he'll be fine.
• 24:17
  He'll be able to play.
• 24:18
  He'll be able to hopefully participate in some camps later in the summer and still do some things, and he's still getting some conversations with colleges, so that's exciting.
• 24:25
  But- Yeah So that's been kind of where my head's been the past six weeks- Yeah is dealing with that.
• 24:31
  I was helpless at first.
• 24:32
  Like- Mm-hmm it is bad.
• 24:35
  Mm-hmm.
• 24:36
  Well- Yeah I'm glad he's on the mend.
• 24:37
  Me too.
• 24:38
  Me too.
• 24:40
  What else is going on?
• 24:41
  Wedding business is pretty busy.
• 24:43
  I know.
• 24:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 24:43
  I'm so happy for you.
• 24:44
  Thank you.
• 24:45
  It's, it's pretty busy.
• 24:46
  It's, uh...
• 24:47
  I've had a little bit of a break now.
• 24:49
  I, I, I'd given myself the summer off because I thought we would be going to camps and doing things.
• 24:54
  Um, but I start back up in September- Yeah with weddings in September and October.
• 24:59
  And you might get, like, a last-minute- Uh, yeah appoi- you know, appointment.
• 25:01
  I saw this thing, so I follow all the wedding pages on the socials, and one was like, um,"Our photographer was supposed to come to the rehearsal last night.
• 25:08
  They didn't come.
• 25:09
  We can't get in touch with her today.
• 25:11
  Uh, like, we need somebody." And I was like,"Oh, that's tough." Yeah.
• 25:15
  That sucks.
• 25:17
  Mm.
• 25:17
  I mean, things happen and who...
• 25:18
  I hope that the photographer's okay, but that's just- Yeah terrible.
• 25:22
  My sister, her makeup person didn't come.
• 25:26
  I was at my sister's house, and the wedding was at my brother's house in the backyard.
• 25:30
  So she's called me, and I was in the middle of getting ready.
• 25:32
  Mm-hmm.
• 25:33
  Early, thank God.
• 25:34
  I, I was the first one to get in the shower.
• 25:37
  Yeah.
• 25:37
  She calls me, she's like in tears, and she's like,"Did you bring like all of the things with you?" Yeah.
• 25:41
  And I was like,"Yeah, I've got everything." And she's like,"Can you please come?" And I was like,"Yes, I will be there." Yeah.
• 25:48
  Yeah.
• 25:48
  So I, I am not great at makeup.
• 25:50
  I'm like, I mean, I can like barely put my own on.
• 25:52
  I'm very, very basic.
• 25:54
  I think you do good, though.
• 25:54
  Like when we do like Halloween and you do the things.
• 25:56
  I mostly be like, that like spooky, like scary- Yeah things.
• 25:59
  Yeah.
• 25:59
  Like not like pretty makeup for a wedding.
• 26:01
  Like I can do like, I can make you look like a- A skeleton a skeleton.
• 26:05
  But I can't...
• 26:06
  And that's if I'm like staring at a picture and I can like recreate it.
• 26:09
  Yeah.
• 26:10
  But like for wedding makeup, I did my best.
• 26:15
  I mean, things happen.
• 26:16
  You know, things, emergencies come up or whatever.
• 26:18
  Like I said, I hope that photographer's okay, but that would just really suck.
• 26:21
  Yeah.
• 26:22
  So yeah, that's just kind of been what I've been going, you know, Jackson life and, and that.
• 26:27
  Well, now that we've caught up on everything- Mm let's just have a little chatty chat about what the people wanna hear about.
• 26:32
  Okay.
• 26:33
  So did you watch The Crash on Netflix?
• 26:36
  I did watch The Crash.
• 26:37
  I actually watched it twice.
• 26:38
  Okay.
• 26:39
  Because there was so much going on in that- Mm-hmm I needed to reabsorb, like I wanted to watch the first part again after I finished it.
• 26:47
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:48
  Because I feel like the whole vibe changes throughout the whole thing.
• 26:51
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:52
  Um- Did you watch any of the other documentaries?
• 26:54
  No there's episodes on Mean Girls Kill or whatever it's called- Okay On Hulu.
• 26:59
  And, there's a couple of like specific episodes dedicated to this- Oh on different crime shows.
• 27:04
  Platforms- Yeah and stuff?
• 27:05
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:06
  No, I didn't know that.
• 27:07
  And I watched part of the Mean Girl one, and then I don't know, one of the dogs did something that I was- but what did you think?
• 27:15
  Do you think that she got what like sentencing-wise?
• 27:18
  I don't think It's so complicated- Mm-hmm for me.
• 27:20
  Like, I don't- I don't believe her I don't believe her.
• 27:20
  I don't think she was trying to kill them.
• 27:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:28
  I just think thought she, nothing pertained to her, laws and, or I think she was very reckless.
• 27:34
  Yeah.
• 27:35
  And, I think she didn't think she would get hurt.
• 27:37
  Like, I think that she thought things just don't apply to her.
• 27:40
  Okay.
• 27:41
  Is that how you...
• 27:41
  McKenzie?
• 27:42
  McKen- McKen- Kenzie, yeah.
• 27:44
  Sorry.
• 27:44
  Kenzie.
• 27:44
  Yeah, Kenzie.
• 27:45
  I think that they were probably high on something.
• 27:47
  I know that they said that the- Oh, 100% the report came back.
• 27:49
  Yeah.
• 27:49
  I don't, I think they were on something.
• 27:50
  They were at a party.
• 27:51
  I think that he was talking to somebody else, and she was quite pissed off.
• 27:55
  Yeah.
• 27:55
  And she was driving like an idiot'cause she was mad.
• 27:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:58
  And she couldn't regulate her emotions and- Yeah there was, I think, other, probably other substances involved.
• 28:03
  Agreed.
• 28:04
  Yeah and, apparently there's like text messages that came out from a couple days before saying why- I, I guess they were having trouble.
• 28:12
  Yeah.
• 28:12
  Relationship trouble.
• 28:12
  Yes, yes, yes.
• 28:14
  Um, so there was, they, like, lots of different stuff is coming out- Yeah after this documentary has already been released.
• 28:20
  Yeah.
• 28:21
  I think that she was pissed.
• 28:23
  Yeah.
• 28:23
  And I think that she- Well, so this is what I mean by, things transition throughout the whole.
• 28:29
  You have a perception in the beginning of kind of what these kids are like, and then you get to know them a little bit through, especially her and her personality and how she responded to people after this, trying to get, endorsements and all the things.
• 28:44
  She was a very selfs- is, s- she's still with us.
• 28:47
  She's a very self-centered young lady.
• 28:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 28:50
  And she's very controlling and bossy.
• 28:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 28:54
  I just think that it was...
• 28:56
  Anyway, go ahead.
• 28:57
  I think...
• 28:58
  I don't believe for one second that she doesn't remember.
• 29:00
  No, I don't either.
• 29:01
  I think that she knows exactly what happened.
• 29:03
  I don't know if her lawyers told her to say that, or I don't know if she just decided to say that on her own.
• 29:07
  Parents,'cause apparently- Right let's talk about her- I'm not a fan.
• 29:09
  Let's talk about her parents, okay?
• 29:11
  Not a fan.
• 29:12
  So Dad said that she has gotten in trouble at school for bullying.
• 29:15
  Mm-hmm.
• 29:15
  And he went to pick her up because she was suspended, and he asked her,"Did you do it?" She said,"No," and he said,"Good enough for me." Right.
• 29:22
  So I tend to believe Dylan because I can more times than not tell if, like, he's hiding something.
• 29:31
  Yeah.
• 29:32
  And we have a very way, way, way- way very open communication.
• 29:39
  Um, sometimes, like- A little too much.
• 29:42
  But, I understand, that parent thing.
• 29:45
  Like, oh, like, my kid said he didn't do it, he didn't do it.
• 29:47
  Yeah.
• 29:47
  But, but I would also wanna hear what the teacher said or what, what, why they believed that this was occurring.
• 29:53
  But don't you also kinda know his character a little bit?
• 29:56
  Right.
• 29:57
  100%.
• 29:58
  Like, he- Yeah has never been in that role- Right of a bully.
• 30:01
  Right.
• 30:01
  He's always been...
• 30:03
  Right.
• 30:03
  I'm not saying- Yeah and you're not saying that our kids are perfect at all.
• 30:06
  No.
• 30:08
  I know, I, I know that my child is not.
• 30:10
  Now, his friends, he's gonna give them beep.
• 30:12
  You know, they're gonna rag each other all day long.
• 30:15
  But just- Now, she's- If somebody told me that he was just mean to a stranger, I would not believe that at all.
• 30:20
  Right.
• 30:20
  But I get the vibe from a lot of the stuff I've seen is she was the, very much the mean girl- Yes of the school.
• 30:28
  She was.
• 30:29
  Just- Very much so just not a nice person.
• 30:32
  Mm-mm.
• 30:32
  Not at all.
• 30:33
  So, that's a whole nother topic, but that's a, that's a big problem now is that- Mm-hmm parents are like,"That not my baby." Well, that and they're just letting their kids do the thing.
• 30:43
  She was living with her boyfriend at 17 while she was still in high school for no reason.
• 30:47
  Not like she had a bad home life and needed a couch to sleep on, but like, he said she's mature enough to do it.
• 30:54
  And they were, like, making dinners every night.
• 30:57
  But then did you, did you catch where he said,"Oh, well, he's got money and, and she likes- Yes nice things." Yes.
• 31:02
  Like, what?
• 31:03
  Exactly.
• 31:04
  And you know how many Google searches I've done on how did Dom get his money?
• 31:08
  And I can find nothing.
• 31:10
  Well, there's TikToks on that.
• 31:11
  Yes.
• 31:12
  Well, There is very, credible sources apparently- Okay From wherever.
• 31:16
  People around her inner circle.
• 31:18
  She was doing- I don't know how to say it properly, like sex work, um, on Snapchat.
• 31:27
  Oh.
• 31:27
  Like pictures for money.
• 31:29
  Well, that's great as a minor.
• 31:31
  Yeah.
• 31:32
  meeting guys I I think it said- Oh, God with, like letting them like suck on her toes and like...
• 31:38
  And so h- her and her boyfriend were fighting about that stuff too,'cause obviously like- Yeah, not okay but she wanted more money they said something in the, doc, and I can't remember what it was, about, he was in pharmacy sales.
• 31:51
  Okay.
• 31:53
  Yeah.
• 31:55
  I, I hate it for the other kid.
• 31:58
  Was it- Mm-hmm Devion?
• 31:59
  Oh my gosh.
• 32:01
  He just got stuck in the wrong vehicle.
• 32:03
  Uh-huh.
• 32:03
  And then the mom's testimony at the end.
• 32:06
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:06
  "Oh, well, he was a new friend." Yeah.
• 32:08
  Like, okay.
• 32:09
  Yeah.
• 32:09
  Was he- Like, yeah.
• 32:11
  It was terrible.
• 32:12
  I was- It was terrible.
• 32:13
  Her, at the very end, it...
• 32:15
  She should have sat down.
• 32:16
  She should not have even tried to get up and say anything.
• 32:19
  No.
• 32:20
  No.
• 32:20
  Mm-mm.
• 32:20
  She should've.
• 32:21
  She's- She, she put that nail in the coffin.
• 32:24
  Yeah, she did.
• 32:25
  It was...
• 32:26
  okay, You know,'cause I try to relate everything to, movies or songs.
• 32:29
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:29
  But I totally had, the mean girl whole thing in my head.
• 32:33
  And you know, the mom that is like the cool mom.
• 32:35
  She's like,"Uh-huh.
• 32:35
  Uh-huh." Yeah.
• 32:36
  I- that's what I felt like- Oh, yeah her, McKenzie's mom, was trying to be the cool mom.
• 32:41
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:41
  And- Mm-hmm.
• 32:42
  I could see that.
• 32:43
  So at first I was like, they're just dressed so, like, uh.
• 32:46
  You know, you see these people and you're like,"I think I would wear something a little bit nicer than just a T-shirt." And I was so Do you remember, like, when we used to listen to, um, True- what was it?
• 32:59
  The- TCO?
• 33:00
  Patrick, yeah.
• 33:00
  Yeah.
• 33:01
  And Patrick was like,"Put, put a comb through your hair." Yes.
• 33:04
  Yes, yes.
• 33:05
  Yes, that's who he- Exactly.
• 33:06
  Yeah.
• 33:07
  I was so distracted though by what...
• 33:09
  Like, he had on a T-shirt with, like, a flannel over it and, and I was just so put off by them.
• 33:14
  But when I watched it the second time, I noticed that most of the other parents were dressed pretty casually too, and I was like, it just comes off different from them than it does everybody else.
• 33:24
  So I think that they, I think, are trying to project a, like- Relatable small town- Yeah relatable, you know, vibe.
• 33:32
  Like, we're just parents having a coffee.
• 33:33
  Yeah.
• 33:33
  Yeah.
• 33:33
  So, yeah.
• 33:34
  Like, so I don't...
• 33:35
  I think that, that they were trying to- Yeah go that route.
• 33:38
  Yeah.
• 33:38
  I, I just, I wasn't a fan of them.
• 33:41
  I just...
• 33:42
  They did not parent her.
• 33:43
  Mm-mm.
• 33:43
  They stopped at some point.
• 33:45
  Like you said, she wanted to be the cool mom.
• 33:47
  She wanted to be a friend, she didn't wanna be a mom.
• 33:48
  Yeah.
• 33:49
  Is how I feel.
• 33:49
  Yeah.
• 33:49
  And then listening to all the the phone calls- Right that have come out from jail and, Mm-hmm.
• 33:56
  My stomach turned when they were interviewing her in jail, and just the things.
• 34:01
  The hairstyle choice.
• 34:02
  I know.
• 34:05
  I- Yeah.
• 34:06
  She's trying to- Look- put on that, hard- Mm-hmm like, I'm- Mm-hmm so tough- Mm type of whatever.
• 34:12
  Yeah.
• 34:12
  I don't know.
• 34:13
  And then What did she say to the producer that they left in and I was like,"Oh my God"?
• 34:18
  I don't remember she said something like,"Am I coming across like-" Oh yeah, she looked at, like, her, I guess her lawyer might have been there- Yeah or somebody, and she looked at them, and she was like,"Can I say that" or something, or,"Am I coming across..." I wanna come across- Yeah like, a certain way.
• 34:32
  Yeah.
• 34:32
  And I was like, She said that out loud?
• 34:34
  And then they left it in there, and I was like,"Oof." Yeah.
• 34:38
  Yeah, that was great.
• 34:39
  So what do you think?
• 34:40
  Do you think that it was intentional murder for she was trying to kill him?
• 34:45
  Not necessarily them,'cause again, I think Devion was just an innocent bystander.
• 34:49
  Did you search TikTok at all- No after you watched it?
• 34:52
  So I did'cause, you know, I'm like, I wanna know everything.
• 34:55
  Oh, please.
• 34:55
  And there are, I think three people on TikTok that were in jail with her.
• 35:01
  Okay.
• 35:02
  One was her girlfriend.
• 35:03
  Oh, okay.
• 35:05
  there was two, that were just, inmates.
• 35:06
  Well, they were there and they- Oh interacted with her.
• 35:09
  So I went through, the 15-part story time of being the girlfriend.
• 35:14
  And she, if you were truly, devastated- Mm-hmm And again, I'm not in jail.
• 35:21
  I don't know.
• 35:21
  I guess it's like s- you adapt to survive.
• 35:24
  Yeah.
• 35:24
  I don't really know.
• 35:25
  Yeah.
• 35:25
  But, they called her, Cherela the Killa or something like that.
• 35:28
  And, she was, proud of it.
• 35:29
  So it wasn't like she was like,"Oh, my God," you know.
• 35:31
  Yeah.
• 35:32
  She was, stepping into it.
• 35:33
  She did not appear suicidal to me.
• 35:36
  So I don't know, unless like I was saying before, she felt like nothing applied to her, why she felt like she could do that and not come away with, you know, the injuries.
• 35:47
  I mean, or death.
• 35:49
  Yeah.
• 35:49
  The one girl said...
• 35:50
  Oh, that she's doing drugs in jail l- apparently, according to these people.
• 35:53
  She's, I mean- Not surprised considering- I was there- that she drove and smoke and, you know, did that That was the first thing she was trying to- Yeah get into while she was there.
• 36:01
  And those people.
• 36:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:03
  Um, and while she was high, she had told the one girl that the devil told her that Dom had to die, and that the devil was holding her foot down on the pedal.
• 36:14
  That slipper.
• 36:15
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:15
  The image of the slipper stuck from the pedal.
• 36:18
  First of all, how do you drive in slippers?
• 36:20
  I don't know.
• 36:22
  Well, I guess it's like driving with flip-flops I don't know yes.
• 36:24
  Hearing them go through...
• 36:26
  Was he a detective that was going through, her speed- Mm-hmm and all of that, where she never tried to slow down.
• 36:34
  Did you see the video?
• 36:35
  Yes.
• 36:36
  Oh, my gosh.
• 36:38
  I didn't catch it the first time, but the second time...
• 36:41
  'Cause I could just hear it the first time.
• 36:43
  When you...
• 36:43
  I could see it in the top.
• 36:45
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:46
  You c- obviously can't see a lot, but that, just knowing that moment.
• 36:50
  That terrifies me.
• 36:51
  For our children driving and driving with friends and, the whole thing.
• 36:55
  Right, right.
• 36:55
  And you know, Dylan's got a good group of friends, and so, like- Yeah I don't worry as, as much.
• 36:58
  Yeah.
• 36:58
  But you never know.
• 36:59
  No, you don't.
• 37:01
  Kids, don't drink and drive.
• 37:02
  Yes.
• 37:02
  Don't do drugs and drive.
• 37:03
  Yes.
• 37:03
  Don't ride with somebody who has done...
• 37:05
  Call me.
• 37:06
  Yes, or me.
• 37:06
  Call, call me or Steph.
• 37:07
  We'll come get you.
• 37:09
  No questions asked.
• 37:10
  And that's what I told Dylan.
• 37:10
  I mean, I've had this conversation with him- That's a good- since he went into high school.
• 37:13
  Yep.
• 37:13
  You will never be in trouble for calling me to pick you up.
• 37:15
  Right.
• 37:15
  No.
• 37:16
  Ever.
• 37:16
  I would much rather have that phone call than a phone call from the police station telling me what has happened.
• 37:21
  Yeah.
• 37:21
  Call us.
• 37:22
  Yes.
• 37:22
  If you can't find anybody else, call us.
• 37:23
  My number is 7-0...
• 37:24
  No, I'm just kidding.
• 37:26
  I think she deserved prison.
• 37:29
  Mm-hmm.
• 37:29
  What'd she get, 10 years?
• 37:30
  15 to life.
• 37:30
  15 to life.
• 37:31
  I think if she would've been repentant.
• 37:34
  That's the thing, like, she wasn't.
• 37:35
  If she would've come off differently and not...
• 37:38
  Yeah, I, I think that she would've got a lesser sentence.
• 37:40
  And she was looking for, for brand deals.
• 37:43
  She was- Yeah, like basically from the hospital.
• 37:46
  Yeah, and then- And her mom was encouraging it.
• 37:48
  Yeah.
• 37:49
  It's just gross.
• 37:50
  If my boyfriend died at that, Right I was with Brandon at that time, in high school, Yeah there's no way I would've been excited about Brandon's contact.
• 37:59
  Uh-uh.
• 37:59
  Uh-uh.
• 38:00
  No way.
• 38:01
  So, like, that I guess, and everybody deals with grief differently, I get it.
• 38:04
  But, Well, I just want to judge you.
• 38:06
  I know, but I am judging.
• 38:09
  It just felt so contrived.
• 38:11
  Oh, gosh.
• 38:12
  It felt so planned.
• 38:13
  Like, when they were at the graveside and she's, it just felt so- Mm-hmm fake and just a show and just what she wanted people to see in that moment.
• 38:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 38:25
  I don't believe she's gonna get out early, for good behavior,'cause she's t- the one girl, I guess you can order the records or whatever from the jail, and it's, like, 58 pages of her disciplinary stuff since she's been in there.
• 38:37
  Oh, wow.
• 38:39
  But it sounds like the jail people that work there don't like her.
• 38:43
  Well, she's not very likable.
• 38:44
  No, she's not.
• 38:45
  And, like- It's not like me or you in prison.
• 38:47
  Like, we would win people over.
• 38:48
  She, I think- wants to be the, Top dog the princess of the jail, and, is bossy and- Mm demanding.
• 38:57
  So- Well, she's used to everything being all about her and what she wants, and, and the rules don't apply to her, and she gets everything, and- Yeah it's not like that in there.
• 39:08
  Well, she's very popular among the ladies.
• 39:11
  Mm.
• 39:11
  Oh.
• 39:12
  Have I told you before that I watched Wentworth?
• 39:14
  Yes.
• 39:15
  I'm re-watching it because I have nothing to watch right now.
• 39:18
  It's so freaking fascinating.
• 39:20
  I, I haven't watched it, but you told me about it and I, it's on my watch list.
• 39:23
  Oh my gosh, it's so interesting.
• 39:24
  But I could see her in there.
• 39:26
  She would not do well.
• 39:27
  Apparently she's had m- many of girlfriends.
• 39:30
  And this just happened a couple years ago, right?
• 39:32
  Mm-hmm.
• 39:33
  Yes.
• 39:33
  Okay.
• 39:33
  Yeah.
• 39:35
  Anywho.
• 39:36
  But good vibes to, you know, to Dom's family- Yes.
• 39:41
  Yeah and Devon's family.
• 39:43
  I liked his sister.
• 39:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 39:44
  Oh, She has some ticky tops?
• 39:45
  Yes.
• 39:46
  Ah.
• 39:46
  The live, with the, with the other inmates.
• 39:48
  Oh.
• 39:49
  No.
• 39:49
  Well, they're not inmates anymore, they're, like- Okay out of jail.
• 39:52
  But yeah, she went, she did, like, lives with them.
• 39:53
  Oh, that'd be great.
• 39:54
  Mm-hmm.
• 39:55
  Yeah.
• 39:55
  Gonna have to look.
• 39:56
  Yeah.
• 39:56
  Gonna have to look.
• 39:57
  Lighter note?
• 39:58
  Yes.
• 39:58
  So I was watching- TikTok or whatever, and it's, like, politic time, and we don't do politics.
• 40:05
  Oh, I'm not ready.
• 40:06
  But I do love, a good funny politics story.
• 40:08
  Sure.
• 40:08
  Yeah.
• 40:08
  So in Alaska, there is a dude named Dan Sullivan who is, running for reelection of whatever.
• 40:15
  Uh-huh.
• 40:15
  I don't even know what he's, what he does.
• 40:17
  But, so there's another man named Dan Sullivan who's running against him just to mess with him.
• 40:26
  Oh my God.
• 40:27
  What?
• 40:27
  So the original Dan Sullivan is saying he wants to sue the new Dan Sullivan because- On what grounds?
• 40:35
  Um, like, election tampering because- the, the people don't know who they're gonna be voting for.
• 40:43
  Wow.
• 40:45
  What if the other one wins?
• 40:48
  So then, they showed, the commercial or whatever.
• 40:51
  Mm-hmm.
• 40:51
  And it is like,"This message is approved by Dan Sullivan.
• 40:55
  Do you think Dan Sullivan has done a good job?""Dan Sullivan says he is not doing a good job.
• 40:59
  You should definitely vote for Dan Sullivan," and like- It sounds like, like just Who's on First kind of thing.
• 41:05
  Like- That's hilarious it's...
• 41:07
  I- they had to have said Dan Sullivan, like, 30 times in the 30-second window of- That's hilarious.
• 41:12
  Yeah.
• 41:13
  And then they- That's hilarious they show, like, this happy, like, Dan Sullivan, and then, like- like, this, like, dark, gloomy, like, mean-looking Dan Sullivan.
• 41:20
  That is crazy.
• 41:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 41:23
  His wife was like,"Are you serious?
• 41:25
  Are you really gonna do this?" He's like,"Yeah, it'll be fun." Yeah.
• 41:27
  "It'll be funny.
• 41:28
  Watch." And then- Now here we are- Yeah talking about it all the way on the other side of the country.
• 41:32
  I thought it was so funny.
• 41:33
  That is pretty fu- sounds like something Fitty would do.
• 41:35
  It...
• 41:35
  but, I don't really know Alaska, and I don't know what there is to do out there when it's so cold.
• 41:39
  So he thought about this while he was stuck inside.
• 41:43
  I guess.
• 41:45
  I guess their nine months of darkness that they have or whatever.
• 41:48
  I wouldn't survive.
• 41:49
  Jackson's girlfriend lived there for a while.
• 41:51
  I would not survive.
• 41:52
  I don't think I would either.
• 41:53
  Uh-uh.
• 41:54
  I don't think I would.
• 41:55
  I think it's beautiful- Okay from a distance and on TV.
• 41:58
  I'd like to watch it on- But, like, I have no desire- TikTok to go there.
• 42:02
  No.
• 42:03
  Polar bears are mean and, Brian's like,"I've been to Alaska and I'd love to go back," and I'm like,"Ugh, sounds like a dude's trip." I would love, like, to hug a wild penguin, but- Oh, you- that's, that would be my extent of- Right of what I would wanna do in Alaska.
• 42:18
  I'd love to see an arctic fox.
• 42:20
  Okay.
• 42:21
  But I don't want to- I, I...
• 42:23
  mm, I'm good.
• 42:24
  Yeah, I'm fine with that.
• 42:25
  Mm-mm.
• 42:26
  I'm fine with that.
• 42:27
  I, I don't like snow.
• 42:28
  I don't like cold.
• 42:29
  I don't either.
• 42:30
  I'm not a fan of snow.
• 42:31
  I've never liked the snow.
• 42:32
  Yeah.
• 42:32
  It's beautiful.
• 42:33
  You don't even think it's, that's pretty?
• 42:34
  No, it turns into, mush and mud and blah.
• 42:36
  It does turn into mush, but those first couple of days it is really beautiful, and then I'm done with it.
• 42:41
  Fair.
• 42:41
  I'm good.
• 42:43
  I, I grew up in it, so I'm good.
• 42:44
  That's true.
• 42:45
  That's true.
• 42:45
  For me, it's like- Yeah, up north a novelty.
• 42:47
  Yeah.
• 42:47
  Not anymore.
• 42:48
  It d- it barely snows every year now, but it's still cold up there.
• 42:51
  Yeah.
• 42:51
  They don't get the snow.
• 42:52
  But, I mean, we had, legit blizzards where, like, we had, feet- like, multiple feet of snow.
• 42:59
  Taller than Stacy.
• 43:00
  Yeah.
• 43:00
  Taller than my pocket purse.
• 43:01
  We built w- we built, like, igloos.
• 43:04
  That is crazy.
• 43:05
  And, like, hung out in the igloos.
• 43:06
  Yeah.
• 43:07
  Okay, so I get it.
• 43:09
  Yeah.
• 43:10
  Not for me.
• 43:11
  Not for you.
• 43:11
  Okay.
• 43:12
  And then, like, even sledding, like, you have to walk back up the hill, ugh.
• 43:14
  I know.
• 43:15
  I know.
• 43:15
  Let's do that in, like, a foot of snow.
• 43:17
  When you're wearing all the layers and all the things.
• 43:19
  Now, i'll go tubing and s- Oh, yeah, when they, like- When it has a conveyor belt.
• 43:23
  Yeah, it's great.
• 43:23
  Yeah.
• 43:23
  Yeah.
• 43:24
  No.
• 43:24
  100%.
• 43:25
  But no, to have to walk back- Uh-uh up and down.
• 43:27
  No, thanks.
• 43:28
  No, thank you.
• 43:29
  It's torture.
• 43:30
  Uh-huh.
• 43:30
  Absolutely not.
• 43:31
  Yeah, no, that's way too much for me.
• 43:33
  Mm-mm.
• 43:33
  Agreed.
• 43:34
  Agreed.
• 43:34
  Well, good luck to Dan Sullivan.
• 43:36
  And Dan Sullivan.
• 43:37
  And the...
• 43:38
  No, we're not, we don't want Dan Sullivan to win.
• 43:40
  We want Dan Sullivan to win.
• 43:42
  And good luck to the voters figuring that out.
• 43:44
  That would be a mess.
• 43:45
  Oh, but then I did, speaking of, like, Alaska- Uh-huh um, it's really not Alaska, but just- you know how my mind works.
• 43:51
  Right.
• 43:52
  Um, 10 minutes later.
• 43:56
  Speaking of Alaska, did you see the hot dog competition?
• 43:59
  There was a baby killer whale that got s- not a baby, but it was, like, a teenager killer whale.
• 44:05
  It wasn't, like, a full adult, but it wasn't a baby.
• 44:07
  Um, and it got separated from its pod.
• 44:10
  Oh.
• 44:10
  So it, wanted interaction with, something else- Mm-hmm other than itself.
• 44:16
  It's swimming solo.
• 44:18
  Yeah.
• 44:18
  And so he was, at, a town wherever, and it started, chilling with the people.
• 44:24
  That's adorable.
• 44:25
  Like, going up to boats and letting, people pet him and, like, I mean, even, just pet his tongue, At the docks, they would have, hoses and stuff to, like, hose off the boats.
• 44:33
  Yeah.
• 44:34
  And it would take the hose- and, spray.
• 44:37
  People were spraying him?
• 44:38
  No, he would spray- Or he would take it.
• 44:39
  Yeah, he would take it- Oh my gosh from people and spray the people.
• 44:43
  But he was, like, such a- He's a little mischievous thing he was so chill.
• 44:47
  Like, loved going to the people.
• 44:49
  I hope that...
• 44:50
  So what did they do with him?
• 44:51
  Nothing, like- Okay it's like their little town mascot now.
• 44:53
  Okay, perfect.
• 44:54
  I love it.
• 44:54
  Yeah.
• 44:54
  I was gonna be like, did they capture him and put him with a family?
• 44:57
  And- No you know, he ate all of them, but.
• 44:58
  Just- Not a human family.
• 45:02
  That's cute, though.
• 45:03
  Mm-hmm.
• 45:03
  And you know what I'm picturing?
• 45:05
  A little, tiny, baby fat one.
• 45:07
  No.
• 45:07
  And I know you said no, but I am picturing, like, literally, like, the size of Rex as, uh, verse, you know, like, a whale size.
• 45:14
  Anyway, mental pictures.
• 45:17
  Well, speaking of the ocean.
• 45:18
  Yeah.
• 45:19
  Gerald.
• 45:20
  That is so crazy.
• 45:22
  That is so crazy.
• 45:25
  I don't have the story pulled up.
• 45:26
  Do you have it?
• 45:26
  Do you wanna just give an overview of that?
• 45:28
  The dude got stolen off of the beach by a dolphin and put to work for three days underwater by Gerald.
• 45:36
  Like an Odyssey.
• 45:37
  Yeah.
• 45:38
  Apparently they weren't singing, though.
• 45:40
  No.
• 45:40
  He was put to work.
• 45:41
  He was working.
• 45:43
  But the crazy...
• 45:43
  I mean, they did all the tests.
• 45:44
  There was no drugs in his system.
• 45:45
  That's crazy.
• 45:45
  And whatever, type of sediment or whatever from the ocean floor that would be as deep where he said he was- Was present was in his lungs.
• 45:54
  That's crazy.
• 45:56
  And now, it...
• 45:57
  Well, now they've confirmed...
• 45:58
  Well, we're gonna talk about this on the next ep, but- Okay they've confirmed, all these aliens and all these, extraterrestrial stuff, so.
• 46:04
  Yeah.
• 46:05
  I cannot wait to talk about that.
• 46:06
  Could you imagine if Gerald just took the form of a dolphin- A dolphin but he's really an alien?
• 46:09
  alien.
• 46:10
  Tea.
• 46:10
  So many things for me to be scared of now.
• 46:14
  Or so many things for me to try to be friends with now.
• 46:17
  True.
• 46:18
  Friendship.
• 46:18
  But he's, but he- Gerald was, is like kidnapping people to work for free.
• 46:23
  Yeah, Gerald, just ask.
• 46:25
  I'll come down for a day and, and help out just for the experience, you know?
• 46:29
  Yeah.
• 46:29
  I'm all about an experience.
• 46:31
  Yes.
• 46:33
  But yeah, so Gerald's is like a workhorse.
• 46:37
  Yeah, yeah.
• 46:38
  Gerald's, Gerald's a mean boss.
• 46:40
  That was crazy, though.
• 46:41
  Yeah.
• 46:42
  I can't remember, do you remember where?
• 46:44
  It was in like Miami, wasn't it?
• 46:45
  Or like somewhere like south.
• 46:46
  I was thinking Florida.
• 46:47
  So like South Florida.
• 46:49
  Yeah.
• 46:49
  So with my vacation search, do I take Florida off, or do I focus on Florida?
• 46:53
  Focus on it, and then take me with you to Raccoon Island.
• 46:59
  Love it.
• 46:59
  Great plans.
• 47:00
  We'll see.
• 47:01
  I'll probably still be sitting here in three weeks- Yeah We do need to take our road trip to see Tracy Yes.
• 47:08
  Yes.
• 47:08
  Tracy, we're coming for you.
• 47:09
  We're coming for you.
• 47:10
  We don't know when.
• 47:11
  Obviously I'm a bad planner these days.
• 47:13
  I get so overwhelmed.
• 47:15
  Yeah.
• 47:16
  And I don't want to make the wrong decision.
• 47:18
  What's wrong with- Life That's it.
• 47:22
  Life is- That's it is what is wrong.
• 47:23
  Life is what's wrong with us.
• 47:25
  Yeah.
• 47:26
  Um- Life'cause I, like...
• 47:27
  Yeah, I get overwhelmed.
• 47:30
  Yeah.
• 47:30
  And I even, doing the little bit that I do do, like, that I actually get done- Uh-huh it's so hard to stay on track.
• 47:38
  Every time I start to get into something, Dylan'll walk in and be like,"Can you watch Clifford?" Or like- Aw"Hey, Mom, check this out." And of course, like, I am taking every bit that I can and will never tell him,"Leave me alone"- Yeah'cause I love him to death.
• 47:51
  And, I'm so grateful that he still wants to talk to me.
• 47:56
  Even if it's to ask me to babysit my grand-dog.
• 47:58
  Yeah.
• 47:59
  But, I, I have such a hard time, going back into something.
• 48:02
  I do, too.
• 48:03
  And I have all these great ideas.
• 48:04
  So I use chat basically as my, like, secretary.
• 48:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 48:08
  'Cause I will just start a project on,"Tell me how to whitewash the brick." And then- I'll start another one on,"Tell me about the different places in Florida." And then I'm like,"How should the collarbone be healing?" And then I'll just keep building and I'll ne- and then I'll be like,"Oh, that's right, we were talking about the brick.
• 48:23
  Forgot about that one.
• 48:23
  Let's go back and touch on that one," while I'm supposed to be cooking dinner.
• 48:27
  Yeah.
• 48:27
  Too much, man.
• 48:27
  Too much.
• 48:28
  Yeah.
• 48:28
  like, ChatGPT tells me that I'm too scatterbrained.
• 48:32
  I'm, I'm not gonna ask'cause I, my, again, I can't take it.
• 48:35
  I can't take it.
• 48:35
  It's like,"Do you, are you sure you wanna start this project?
• 48:38
  Because you've got 14 that you have not completed." And I'm like,"Oh." That's harsh.
• 48:43
  Well, thank you.
• 48:44
  Can you give me a reminder of what I was working on?
• 48:46
  Yeah.
• 48:46
  Tell me about those 14 things'cause I can only remember about two and a half.
• 48:49
  Yeah.
• 48:50
  Yeah.
• 48:50
  So- Oh my goodness it is what it is.
• 48:51
  Yeah, absolutely.
• 48:53
  I would love to talk about am I the A-hole.
• 48:55
  Oh, yeah.
• 48:56
  Yeah.
• 48:57
  Do you have one?
• 48:57
  I do.
• 48:57
  I have one.
• 48:58
  I, I- Okay.
• 48:58
  Yeah Best of Reddit updates.
• 49:03
  Am I the a-hole for kicking a server out of my wedding?
• 49:06
  And I got my wedding because- Mm-hmm you know, I've got my professional here.
• 49:10
  Yeah.
• 49:10
  So it says,"I, 25 female, and my husband, 30 male, got married last Friday." This is from 2022, so this is an old one.
• 49:20
  But,"We planned our dream wedding down to our dream catering company.
• 49:24
  The wedding was beautiful.
• 49:25
  After the pictures, we headed to our cocktail hour, and that's when I saw her.
• 49:30
  My guests were all told to wear dark colors so my husband and I stood out.
• 49:34
  I also asked my guests to wear minimal makeup." Red flag.
• 49:38
  That's weird.
• 49:39
  Yeah.
• 49:40
  "I had assumed that applied to the staff, too." The server, 19-ish, had on clearly too much eyeliner.
• 49:47
  She also had diamond studs in her ears, a flashy ring, and one of those ugly nose studs.
• 49:53
  I think nose rings are adorable.
• 49:56
  I like them on some people.
• 49:58
  Depends on...
• 49:58
  Depends.
• 49:59
  But yeah, go ahead.
• 50:00
  She's 19.
• 50:00
  Do what you want.
• 50:01
  Yeah.
• 50:02
  The staff's uniform was a black long-sleeve shirt, but on her it was too low-cut, and her pants were far too tight.
• 50:10
  It was super distracting.
• 50:11
  She was walking around serving drinks and talking to my guests, which she's supposed to be doing.
• 50:16
  Uh-huh.
• 50:16
  Uh-huh.
• 50:17
  I asked another member of the staff to speak to their boss.
• 50:19
  When the boss came out, I pointed out the server and asked that she be dealt with,'cause she was super distracting.
• 50:25
  Their boss apologized and called the server back into the kitchen.
• 50:29
  Not even an hour later, the server was back out serving food for dinner.
• 50:33
  I called the boss over again and asked if the server could work in the back or go home.
• 50:37
  Her boss said that they were short-staffed tonight, so that she would see what could be done.
• 50:42
  After a couple of hours of not seeing her, I saw the server again behind the bar.
• 50:46
  I called the boss out one last time and told her that if the server didn't leave, I'd be calling the cops.
• 50:52
  Oh.
• 50:52
  The boss finally relented and told the girl to go home.
• 50:56
  My husband and mother-in-law said I was acting crazy and that I probably got the poor college kid fired over nothing.
• 51:02
  My mother and maid of honor said it's my wedding, so I can do as I please.
• 51:05
  It's my wedding, and I don't want someone over-shining me, and the server should know she's at work and not dress up so much.
• 51:13
  I do- In her black button-down shirt.
• 51:16
  I do feel kind of bad because she was pretty young.
• 51:19
  Am I the A-hole?
• 51:20
  Yes, absolutely.
• 51:21
  1,000%.
• 51:23
  I cannot stand...
• 51:26
  I cannot stand...
• 51:27
  I mean, I get kind of the, the concept of wanting your guests to wear a certain color so your pictures look good, like- But to tell them minimal makeup and to demand, I don't know.
• 51:38
  I was, not the bridezilla.
• 51:40
  I was like- Right just whatever.
• 51:41
  Let's get it done.
• 51:43
  But I couldn't imagine being that worried that I was gonna be outshined on my own wedding day.
• 51:48
  Nobody is- Right looking at the freaking caterer.
• 51:50
  Right.
• 51:50
  He either has wandered before- Right, right and she's got a lot of issues with that.
• 51:55
  Yeah, yep.
• 51:56
  I'm making a lot of judgments.
• 51:59
  Or she's just one of those super, super, super insecure girls.
• 52:01
  Yeah.
• 52:02
  And- Or it's both/both yeah.
• 52:04
  Yeah, that is crazy.
• 52:06
  Okay, so, if that was gonna be her expectation that she wanted the workers, servers, DJ, all the people to b- she should have told them.
• 52:16
  And yeah, why would you just assume?
• 52:18
  Right.
• 52:19
  Crazy.
• 52:20
  Now, I do dress on wedding days to b- like, be invisible.
• 52:22
  I do wear all black, I don't wear loud things.
• 52:25
  Right.
• 52:26
  I, loud jewelries, you know, tinkling and all the things.
• 52:29
  Right.
• 52:30
  She was appropriate.
• 52:31
  Uh, I mean, going off of what this says- Yeah I feel like she is definitely the A-hole.
• 52:36
  Yeah.
• 52:36
  And the girl needs her job back with a raise.
• 52:38
  So there was a- A update?
• 52:40
  An update sort of.
• 52:41
  It's from one of the commenters.
• 52:43
  Okay.
• 52:44
  So it says,"Not gonna lie, this sounds like a story my coworker told me.
• 52:49
  After sending the post to my work friend, I confirmed that this is in fact the same wedding.
• 52:54
  Oh my gosh.
• 52:56
  And I have screenshots of the texts I got sent during the wedding.
• 52:59
  Oh my gosh.
• 53:01
  Jesse, I know.
• 53:02
  Just to clarify some things, I saw in the comments though, our...
• 53:06
  One, our uniforms change depending on the weather.
• 53:09
  This was a daytime wedding in 90-degree heat.
• 53:11
  Yep.
• 53:11
  So lightweight, long-sleeve tops.
• 53:14
  Yep.
• 53:14
  The wedding was three and a half hour drive for most of us, so our usual team of 15 people was cut to nine.
• 53:21
  I wasn't there'cause the drive was too long, and- Mm-hmm I'm not comfortable driving that far.
• 53:25
  Mm-hmm.
• 53:26
  She wasn't fired, but she did have to leave early, but that's not a bad thing,'cause that means she didn't have to clean up after the wedding, and she still got paid.
• 53:32
  True.
• 53:33
  Jewelry is allowed at our job.
• 53:35
  It just has to be simple, which is what she had on, simple jewelry and her engagement ring.
• 53:40
  Sounds like it, diamond earrings and a nose...
• 53:42
  Yeah.
• 53:42
  She was actually 18, but she was in high school.
• 53:45
  She can bartend supervised because she's 18.
• 53:47
  Okay.
• 53:48
  Makeup is allowed, it just isn't crazy makeup.
• 53:51
  So eyeliner, specifically winged eyeliner, which is what she had, is in fact allowed.
• 53:57
  We buy our own uniforms and are reimbursed for the cost.
• 54:00
  She accidentally shrunk her pants and hadn't gotten the chance to get new ones.
• 54:04
  My coworkers and I are all laughing at this.
• 54:07
  OP seemingly left out the fact that one of the fathers kept flirting with the staff.
• 54:11
  Some of the guests got poop-faced and tried to steal from the bar.
• 54:16
  Wedding planner walked into the kitchen at one point and almost broke down crying, and the groom and the groomsmen got way too high and left half-smoked blunts all over the place.
• 54:26
  Oh my go- she's got bigger things to worry about than this server with her nose ring, or nose piercing- Yeah whatever.
• 54:32
  Mm-hmm.
• 54:33
  So that was a tea from the company worker.
• 54:36
  Oh my gosh, love it.
• 54:37
  Yes.
• 54:38
  So, yeah, she is definitely the a-hole.
• 54:40
  I bet she's already divorced.
• 54:42
  Oh my gosh, I know.
• 54:43
  Yeah.
• 54:44
  That's insane.
• 54:45
  That's in- He probably started filling out the paperwork that night when he saw that.
• 54:48
  He was like,"Ah, this was a big mistake." I can't even fathom the whole, bridezilla thing.
• 54:54
  To be that, that, obsessed and controlling- Yeah I have not had any to that level Thank God or anywhere close to that.
• 55:01
  Mm-mm.
• 55:02
  I mean, like, you read some of these stories and it's, it's bananas.
• 55:05
  Yeah.
• 55:05
  Like- It is.
• 55:07
  It, they can be.
• 55:09
  It- Which that's gonna have to be a whole nother, ep.
• 55:11
  Ep, yeah.
• 55:11
