SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
3:15
SPEAKER_00: If you are listening to this, um try to download our episodes.
3:22
SPEAKER_00: Yes, the listens are great, the follows are great, but what's tracked for us is when you guys download these.
3:29
SPEAKER_00: If I'm being honest, I don't even give a shit if you listen to it.
3:33
SPEAKER_00: I'd prefer that you listen to it, but the download is what goes to our uh what we see.
3:40
SPEAKER_00: Uh unfortunately, I've done a lot of, I'm sure there's ways, and we'll find out eventually, but I haven't found out ways to look at like views and listens because the only podcast I've ever downloaded was The Basement Yard.
3:52
SPEAKER_00: I just listened to them.
3:53
SPEAKER_00: Right.
3:53
SPEAKER_00: I just play, I don't download them.
3:55
SPEAKER_00: That's yeah, so I don't know, like, yes, we're at almost 500 downloads.
4:01

4:04
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, like we don't know.
4:06
SPEAKER_00: Um, but back to the story.
4:08
SPEAKER_00: So got you know, kid, if you're listening, uh make sure you download those.
4:12
SPEAKER_00: But yeah, yeah, I was able to prostitute out our podcast.
4:16
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it felt great.
4:17
SPEAKER_00: Fucking whore.
4:17
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
4:18
SPEAKER_01: I've done it, I've done it once or twice.
4:21
SPEAKER_00: That was the first time it was with just somebody absolutely random for me.
4:24
SPEAKER_00: It always feels wrong.
4:26
SPEAKER_00: I always feel so wrong.
4:28
SPEAKER_00: You remember the clip I sent you yesterday from Joe Sanegato from the basement yard.
4:33
SPEAKER_00: Like, him and Frank all the time talk about how they feel like they have imposter.
4:37
SPEAKER_00: Like, I don't know if I told you everything, but like they sold out Radio City, yeah.
4:41
SPEAKER_00: And then sold out Madison Square fucking garden for the podcast live show.
4:46
SPEAKER_00: That's crazy.
4:47
SPEAKER_00: Like, and and I love it because they're two friends, guys.
4:50
SPEAKER_00: And I'm pitching these guys, right?
4:51
SPEAKER_00: I don't care.
4:52
SPEAKER_00: I love these two guys.
4:54
SPEAKER_00: Um, Joe is one of the most genuine, authentic people I think I've ever watched on the internet, and they're fucking hilarious, they're lifelong friends.
5:02
SPEAKER_00: They I mean they met in pre-K.
5:04
SPEAKER_00: Wow, they're from Queens, New York.
5:06
SPEAKER_00: Nice, um, and and it's wonderful.
5:09
SPEAKER_00: And um, but yeah, um I lost where I was going with that, but that's okay.
5:16
SPEAKER_00: Um, but yeah, so you know, maybe someday we'll get there.
5:21
SPEAKER_00: Maybe, you know, you never know.
5:23
SPEAKER_00: Maybe we can be whores for the business too.
5:25
SPEAKER_00: I don't give a shit.
5:25
SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
5:26
SPEAKER_00: Just pay, give me a check so I ain't gotta work a regular fucking job anymore.
5:29
SPEAKER_00: Like, that's really all I want.
5:30
SPEAKER_00: I want to be able to set my own schedule.
5:32
SPEAKER_00: Like, he was talking further in that episode, uh, that interview that he was being interviewed from.
5:37
SPEAKER_00: He said, you know, he says, I only have a small team.
5:40
SPEAKER_00: Like, dude, like they do a lot.
5:41
SPEAKER_00: Like, he has like four or five different podcasts, like he has his own Senegato studio.
5:45
SPEAKER_00: Like, this dude is built something from nothing.
5:47
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, like when I said I first started watching him, this dude was making fucking uh YouTube videos in his mom's basement.
5:54
SPEAKER_00: Jesus.
5:54
SPEAKER_01: Um, so uh I mean we're not much different.
5:59
SPEAKER_01: We're making podcasts in my dad's ads.
6:01
SPEAKER_00: That's another reason why it's like you know, but what he said was is he was like, you know, you've seen the one where he said, just fuck if people listen.
6:08
SPEAKER_00: Right, just make it.
6:10
SPEAKER_00: And I think, you know, while we're recording, that's my mentality.
6:14
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, me too.
6:14
SPEAKER_00: But I need to throughout the week think like that because you know, when we have a one, two, sometimes even a zero.
6:20
SPEAKER_00: Zero, yeah.
6:21
SPEAKER_00: It's disheartening.
6:22
SPEAKER_00: It is because we, you know, we've said multiple times and continues to say, we don't get paid for this.
6:28
SPEAKER_00: No, we put our own money into it with this kind of stuff, with my you know, my laptop, with the mics that you've bought.
6:35
SPEAKER_00: Like we've both put so much time and effort into this.
6:38
SPEAKER_00: But you know, it it I don't want to say it hurts because you know it it's a slow grind.
6:44
SPEAKER_00: It is like even his podcast, I mean, it was out for almost five, six years before it picked up.
6:49
SPEAKER_00: So it might take us.
6:50
SPEAKER_00: It could, and that's okay.
6:51
SPEAKER_00: As long as you know, we both enjoy still doing it, and that that's really what's most important.
6:56
SPEAKER_00: I look forward to it every Sunday fucking week, dude.
7:00
SPEAKER_00: It's it's it's therapy.
7:02
SPEAKER_00: It's therapy.
7:03
SPEAKER_00: We've said it multiple times and we'll continue therapy.
7:05
SPEAKER_00: Yep.
7:07
SPEAKER_00: But yeah, so Bob, you had an interesting fucking afternoon.
7:12
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
7:13
SPEAKER_01: I was uh we talked about doing this a couple days ago because you know, we're not really busy right now, which is holiday shocking.
7:21

7:21
SPEAKER_01: Uh my wife's been having some issues the last couple days with her knee.
7:26
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
7:26
SPEAKER_01: And um I was unaware.
7:29

7:32
SPEAKER_00: Oh, hey, hey, my wife's knees are fucked up.
7:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that doesn't it could be more reasons than but no.
7:37

7:39
SPEAKER_01: Um unfortunately, we're uh approaching middle age.
7:43

7:45
SPEAKER_01: And um yeah, she's only uh what a few months younger than you.
7:50
SPEAKER_00: So she'll be 45 this year.
7:52
SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
7:53
SPEAKER_00: So then yeah, she's only eight nine months, then she's already, I mean, really, technically, 45 is about middle aged.
7:59
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I'm technically supposed to get my prostate played with and and a fucking uh camera shoved up my ass.
8:06

8:27
SPEAKER_00: She was going back, but she got a job at this place called um New Digestive Wellness, um, where she assisted colonoscopies and shit like that.

8:39
SPEAKER_00: I told her the first day, I was like, you have a shitty job.
8:42
SPEAKER_00: I couldn't help it.
8:43
SPEAKER_00: No, I couldn't help it.
8:44
SPEAKER_00: I couldn't imagine why.
8:45
SPEAKER_00: I used to say shit randomly, like, man, you have to deal with the worst shit every day.
8:50
SPEAKER_00: Like But she loved it though.
8:52
SPEAKER_00: Like, she, you know, none of that shit bothered her or something like that.
8:55
SPEAKER_00: The only reason uh when she got pregnant with Ty was right around the time that like her mom started really getting sick.
9:03
SPEAKER_00: But I mean, we've talked her dad is a worker.
9:07
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he said he still works.
9:08
SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, and he's 74.
9:11
SPEAKER_00: Wow.
9:11
SPEAKER_00: And I mean, I'm talking he still puts in like 35 to 40 hours a week.
9:16
SPEAKER_00: Um but he had come to her and said, Hey, how much would it how much money would I have to give you to give up your house and come move here and take care of your mom?
9:24
SPEAKER_00: Damn.
9:25
SPEAKER_00: And I mean, obviously I thought I was like, we don't need no money.
9:29
SPEAKER_00: You know, she helped me take care of my dad.
9:30
SPEAKER_00: I mean, that's the least I could do.
9:32
SPEAKER_00: And they've I mean they were she her mom was amazing to me, and uh uh her dad is I mean he's actually taught me more and treated me more like an actual son than my own father sometimes.
9:46
SPEAKER_00: Uh I I anyways your wife was uh having knee issues.
9:52
SPEAKER_01: I ended up taking her to the hospital and they they went through and did an ultrasound to check for blood clots just to make sure, you know, because it kind of crept up like, you know, pretty quick.
10:03
SPEAKER_01: And that came back normal, and then they took her back for x-rays, and that was pretty much normal minus the degeneration in her knee joint through arthritis.
10:14
SPEAKER_01: So literally the poor the poor thing is having an arthritis flare-up.
10:19
SPEAKER_01: And the funny part is here's the best part for me.
10:23
SPEAKER_01: The doctor writes her off work for the next five days.
10:27
SPEAKER_01: Oh shit.
10:28
SPEAKER_01: She calls her boss, and this stupid asshole is like, Well, you need to find coverage.
10:33
SPEAKER_01: She's like, that's not my fucking problem.
10:35
SPEAKER_01: That's your problem.
10:36
SPEAKER_01: That's a manager.

10:45
SPEAKER_01: It's like, I dude, I'm telling you, if I ever get the chance.
10:49
SPEAKER_01: If I ever get the chance.
10:51
SPEAKER_01: She won't let me go up there, but I'm telling you, if I ever get the chance.
10:54
SPEAKER_00: I have been in that situation so many times with Rihanna where I'm like, say the words.
10:58
SPEAKER_00: We're gonna have a conversation.
11:00
SPEAKER_00: There's there's a person I'm not gonna name names because there could be a chance that they have or will watch this, but there was a certain person that had some things to say about Rihanna, and I almost went looking for him.
11:17
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
11:18
SPEAKER_00: But I, you know, the better half of me talk me out of it.
11:24
SPEAKER_01: It's it's not worth an assault charge in the end.
11:26
SPEAKER_00: I am not a badass by any stretch of the word, but I'm also not scared of nobody.
11:32
SPEAKER_00: Right.
11:33
SPEAKER_00: And the small circle that I have, if you come at him with some bullshit, best believe we can either talk it out with words or we can scrap.
11:43
SPEAKER_00: I mean, that's really what it's gonna come down to.
11:45
SPEAKER_00: And I can tell you this, I know I'd whoop his motherfucking ass.
11:48
SPEAKER_00: So there's that.
11:50
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
11:50
SPEAKER_00: But, anyways, um that's unfortunate though.
11:54
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that was my afternoon.
11:55
SPEAKER_00: Um, you know, it nothing about going to the fucking hospital is fun.
12:01
SPEAKER_00: Never.

SPEAKER_00: No matter I don't if you go for a fucking tetanus shot because you gotta cut, you're gonna be there for four fucking hours.
12:08
SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah, we were there for four hours.
12:10
SPEAKER_00: And and what's funny is is I can remember what last 15, maybe 20 years, these express clinics, these uh Yeah, and they're just as bad now.
12:18
SPEAKER_00: It's not even that.
12:19
SPEAKER_00: It's the whole purpose of those was to make it faster and easier for more in you know, oh yeah um dangerous or life-threatening things in the hospital, and it didn't do shit.
12:33
SPEAKER_00: No, it's still a pain in the ass to go to the fucking hospital.
12:36
SPEAKER_00: Like I I I I I hate it.
12:38
SPEAKER_00: Um, the last few times I've had to go, I've just been lucky that they've had to take me in a fucking ambulance because you know last time I went, that's how I well we'll talk about it in a future episode.
12:49
SPEAKER_01: So yes, foreshadowing people.
12:51
SPEAKER_00: Uh but yeah, I um yeah, fucking, you know, arthritis is you know it's no joke.
12:58
SPEAKER_00: Well, and like my mom, my mom, my dad and my grandmother, like they got to the point where like their fingers started going crooked because they had it so bad.
13:08
SPEAKER_00: So I get to look forward to that shit.
13:10
SPEAKER_00: Hopefully, not only did they give me diabetes, I get that shit too.
13:13
SPEAKER_00: It's like the fuck.
13:15
SPEAKER_00: These are the gifts that just keep on giving.
13:17

SPEAKER_01: When we get a spring and fall in Ohio.
16:06
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I mean, when I was younger, it was always summer, just because that's when I could fucking grow and be an idiot.
16:11
SPEAKER_00: But um, now that I'm older, fall is my absolute weather, it's you know, especially since I lost all that weight.
16:19
SPEAKER_00: I mean, shit, there was times, you know, when I was hitting 350, 360 that I mean it would be 35 degrees out and I'd be out in a t-shirt.
16:28
SPEAKER_00: I'd be in a t-shirt because I'm like, I'm I'd be too hot.
16:31
SPEAKER_00: Oh now I like it because once it dips under like 65, 60.
16:36
SPEAKER_00: I can throw that hoodie on and I'm not hot.
16:38
SPEAKER_00: Oh, I love it.
16:39
SPEAKER_01: That's what I love about the kids doing marching band, because come October, it's hoodie season.
16:44
SPEAKER_01: It's hoodie weather.
16:45
SPEAKER_01: I get to sit, watch football, wear my hoodies.
16:48
SPEAKER_01: It's amazing.
16:50
SPEAKER_01: Eat a pretzel.
16:53
SPEAKER_01: I wish they sold beer.
16:54
SPEAKER_01: That'd be awesome, but it's a high school game.
16:56
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they ain't selling that shit out there.
16:57
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, of course not.
16:58
SPEAKER_01: But it would be sweet.
17:00
SPEAKER_00: I would take a beer.
17:01
SPEAKER_00: They'd have to they'd have to give you a one beer limit.
17:04
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, with a band.
17:05
SPEAKER_00: Actually, I don't even think it'd be the beer you'd have to worry about.
17:07
SPEAKER_00: It'd be the moms that drink a fucking half a case of wine.
17:10
SPEAKER_00: Right.
17:12
SPEAKER_00: Karen's the Karen's will come out.
17:14
SPEAKER_00: The women are gonna come after us after that.
17:16
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you know, there's some out there that are, you know, especially sports moms.
17:20
SPEAKER_01: I will say this because my wife is a sports mom, because the the girls did play sports at one point, and they're fierce, man.
17:27
SPEAKER_00: Oh they're worse than the they're they're worse than the dads.
17:30
SPEAKER_00: When Ty was playing soccer, I shit you not, the moms were always the loudest and most like vocal.
17:39
SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, they fucking they take their kids' sports fucking seriously.
17:43
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and it's just it's youth league stuff, it's not I don't know.
17:47
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, like they're yeah, right.
17:49
SPEAKER_00: But you know, I mean I got behind Ty too, but some of them people I was like you need to take a freaking tone it down, Tammy.
17:57
SPEAKER_01: But take a Valium or something.
17:59
SPEAKER_00: Fuck man.
18:00
SPEAKER_01: I know my dad was my dad was brutal with me when I was because I bowled on you know Saturday mornings for years, and you know, you'd throw a shitty shot and walk back and he'd be like, arms crossed, just looking at you know what you did wrong.
18:15
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
18:16
SPEAKER_01: Why don't you come down here and throw the damn ball?
18:18
SPEAKER_01: At least he was there.
18:19
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he was there.
18:20
SPEAKER_00: I g I I can I give him that.
18:23
SPEAKER_00: He was there.
18:24
SPEAKER_00: Like I've said before, my dad came to my mom and dad.
18:27
SPEAKER_00: My mom, I I've told this story before, but my mom, my dad was very controlling, so my mom wouldn't do anything if it wasn't with my dad or nothing like that.
18:35
SPEAKER_00: So my dad came to our freshman year at East, unfortunately, we only had at our highest 16 kids total.
18:42
SPEAKER_00: Really?
18:43
SPEAKER_00: You were playing three-way.
18:44
SPEAKER_00: Oh dude, I there was six of us that never left the field.
18:48
SPEAKER_00: Ugh.
18:49
SPEAKER_00: Um, but because of that though, some of them would drop off because they couldn't handle it.
18:54
SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
18:55
SPEAKER_00: And uh so we only got to play three games.
18:57
SPEAKER_00: No, I played a lot of JV and I dressed for varsity.
19:00
SPEAKER_00: Nice.
19:01
SPEAKER_00: But um Yeah, they only came to the three freshman games.
19:05
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but they no wrestling matches, no, you know, and then when I actually started getting good, you know, not I don't want to say good, but when I started really getting into a rhythm and and you know, whatever.
19:18
SPEAKER_00: Um Yeah, I I didn't have much of a a cheering section when I played sports, unfortunately.
19:25
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it was it was mostly just my dad.
19:27
SPEAKER_01: I mean my mom would come once in a while, but you know, when when I played softball as an adult, you know, I had my my ex and the kids, and you know, my sister and her husband would show up with the kids and you know that would be cool because but it was a church softball thing.
19:44
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I mean the more I think about it, I don't really know if I've had much of a cheering section in anything I've ever done.
19:50
SPEAKER_00: Um yeah.
19:51
SPEAKER_00: I mean, probably why I never stayed creative with anything.
19:54
SPEAKER_00: I just never, you know, and and and and I get you know, you're supposed to be your motivation and all that, but it helps when somebody else sees it.
20:04
SPEAKER_00: Well, that's encourages you.
20:05
SPEAKER_01: I I think that's the thing that we're that you're figuring out working with me doing this, it's like being an an act, you know, an artist myself, you know, music speaking, I mean the motivation's always there and you're starting to understand what it's really, really like.
20:21
SPEAKER_00: I mean I always understood that like I don't I don't even know how to how to say what I'm trying to say.
20:32
SPEAKER_00: Like my my issue back then was always that it could never interfere with work.
20:38
SPEAKER_00: Right.
20:39
SPEAKER_00: My thing now is how can I find it how can I find a time for it with work.
20:46
SPEAKER_00: Right.
20:47
SPEAKER_00: Um, so I think that was a big problem.
20:49
SPEAKER_00: But again, you know, I didn't have I mean Vonnie and and and and Jermaine always said that like, you know, I I could spit, you know what I mean?
20:58
SPEAKER_00: Like I could write, I was a good writer and shit like that, but you know, that was it.
21:04
SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
21:04
SPEAKER_00: Like I didn't you know I I just I I didn't have a lot of people, you know, come I just didn't.
21:12
SPEAKER_00: I mean honestly, like the the good thing is is I'm more sad about it now than I think I was then.
21:18
SPEAKER_00: Right, right.
21:18
SPEAKER_00: Like back then, like I I also had a hostile like me and my dad, like we had years when we got along and everything was great, but when I was a teenager, it was hard.
21:30
SPEAKER_00: He was just he was just a bastard.
21:33
SPEAKER_00: So um I just wanted to be away from the house.
21:37
SPEAKER_00: So as long as I wasn't at the house, I was happy, you know.
21:41
SPEAKER_00: And again, though, it kind of goes to like what you were saying.
21:44
SPEAKER_00: Um, he would have nothing but critiques any fucking way.
21:47
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, how I could do this better, how I fucked that up.
21:50
SPEAKER_00: Like, so I mean it was almost probably a blessing in disguise if we're being honest.
21:54
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, my dad was a lot a lot of the same when it came to sports, but it in fact, me and my Sister were talking about this the other day.
22:01
SPEAKER_01: It always felt like with with our dad, there was like a higher standard that he ex like expected, and it was like if you didn't meet that, it was kind of like rah rah rah and then it's like, but now that we're older, it's kind of like well, you know, it's I I will say this.
22:18
SPEAKER_00: I I've said this, my dad always had good sayings, and and he did have good advice, yeah.
22:26
SPEAKER_00: Uh uh a lot of the time.
22:29
SPEAKER_00: And one thing he told me is something that I had to tell Ty.
22:33
SPEAKER_00: Because after I graduated, we went through a good period where we got along, and I remember telling him, I'm like, yo, I'm like, where was this shit when I was a teenager and a and a kid?
22:43
SPEAKER_00: And he goes, I don't know how to raise a friend.
22:46
SPEAKER_00: I had to raise my son.
22:47
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
22:48
SPEAKER_00: And it kind of clicked.
22:50
SPEAKER_00: Now, he was still a little barbaric and Anderthrall with it in the way he did shit, but I got that.
22:56
SPEAKER_00: It was like, okay, the time for that can be later.
22:58
SPEAKER_00: Once I've done my job, then we can be friends.
23:00
SPEAKER_00: But until then, I got a job to do.
23:02
SPEAKER_00: That's right.
23:03
SPEAKER_00: And I respected that, you know, and that's the one thing.
23:06
SPEAKER_00: Like, if you want to talk about punishment and and and whether right or wrong, putting the fear into you to make sure that you're you're well prepared for something, you get it done correctly.
23:19
SPEAKER_00: He definitely put that in me.
23:20
SPEAKER_00: Sure.
23:20
SPEAKER_00: The way he did it, yeah, it was could have been a little, you know, it was a little questionable, but my dad's same with the same thing.
23:27
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you know, but again, you know, I tell people sometimes, like these kids that you know come, like these interns and stuff, I tell them stories and they go, they let you guys get away with that.
23:36
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, dude, nobody gave a fuck what our parents like no it might it was mind your business.
23:42
SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
23:42
SPEAKER_00: If it ain't nothing to do with you, got it the fuck out of it.
23:45
SPEAKER_00: Like, I had friends who used to get the shit beat out of them, and I would just turn my head off.
23:50
SPEAKER_00: That's all you can do.
23:50
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, hey, you don't want to catch a well, I mean, because you know, the old saying, it takes a village to raise it.
23:56
SPEAKER_00: I mean, my dad would tell people I would go stay with him.
23:58
SPEAKER_00: He acts out of line, knock him upside the fucking edge.
24:01
SPEAKER_00: So like I had to always be, you know, on my best, especially if I wasn't at the house.
24:06
SPEAKER_00: My dad was like, You ain't gonna act like no fool and embarrass me in public.
24:10
SPEAKER_00: Like, fuck that.
24:11
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, these kids now, man, especially.
24:14
SPEAKER_00: I I don't have to worry about that with Ty, though.
24:16
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you're lucky.
24:16
SPEAKER_00: Like, he he he's not like that.
24:18
SPEAKER_00: Like, like, even when he was a baby, like I'm I mean a baby.
24:21
SPEAKER_00: Like, if we told him no and shit in the store, he never acted out.
24:24
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
24:24
SPEAKER_00: Like, I mean, he would be upset, but he never like screamed and cried and grabbed, like, he never did that.
24:29
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I didn't have that with mine when they were small.
24:32
SPEAKER_01: It's just like Layla's been great.
24:36
SPEAKER_01: Oh, she's a sweetheart.
24:37
SPEAKER_01: She's got an attitude.
24:38
SPEAKER_00: Well, she's first of all, first of all, she's a teenager.
24:41
SPEAKER_00: Second of all, she's a keener.
24:42
SPEAKER_00: What the fuck?
24:43
SPEAKER_00: But she's got two strikes against her before she's even, you know what I mean?
24:47
SPEAKER_00: Her back's against the wall, but she's a sweetheart.
24:49
SPEAKER_00: She's never been nothing but polite to me.
24:51
SPEAKER_00: Right.
24:51
SPEAKER_00: Um, I dude, you I I've said this time and time again, and I'll say it on air, so people you have done an amazing fucking job with her, man.
24:59
SPEAKER_00: And you're doing the same with Bubba.
25:00
SPEAKER_00: I know he was a little rough, but like we said, like we said though, girls are easy, young, and hard as teenagers, and boys are easy, young are hard young and easier as teenagers.
25:11
SPEAKER_00: Although I'm starting to think that's bullshit because I've been wanting to clock tie a couple times.
25:16
SPEAKER_00: It's kind of crazy, but it's just he's getting that teenage paints attitude, and I'm like, bro, I see why my dad always had a clenched fist.
25:25
SPEAKER_00: Because it's like dog.
25:26
SPEAKER_00: I've had to walk away from mine a few times.
25:29
SPEAKER_00: It's like dog, you know, and and it's and and I'm sure it's with Maddie with you and Sonny with me, it's like I had to be careful what what what what lines I stepped on.
25:38
SPEAKER_00: Like I didn't care what I mean.
25:40
SPEAKER_00: I cared what Rihanna said, but when she was like, hey, you know, you have the right, it's like, but I still have to be careful because I'm still it's not even about the punishment, it's about how she will perceive me.
25:50
SPEAKER_00: Like, and not that I want her to think I'm her best friend, but I want her to know that I'm both people.
25:54
SPEAKER_00: Like I can I can discipline you, but at the same time, like I can be your best friend.
25:58
SPEAKER_00: Now, it took us to her basically being an adult before we got there.
26:03
SPEAKER_00: But you know, we we have a a really good relationship now, so but you know, she didn't have you know, she had a uh at times crazy childhood too.
26:16
SPEAKER_00: So, you know, I I I can understand why she felt the way she did.
26:19
SPEAKER_00: But you know, we all we can do is the best, you know, as I you know, Jermaine tells me all the time, like we say it all the time, but like there's times Jermaine has sent me a text and I'll say something or say something.
26:29
SPEAKER_00: He'd be like, Man, fuck them kids, man.
26:31
SPEAKER_00: Yep.
26:31
SPEAKER_00: Some days, you know, you have to there's just days it's like, man, I can't believe I fucking created you.
26:38
SPEAKER_01: Right now, especially, and you know, with little dude with summer vacation actively going on right now, it's like well, and they get bored after six and a half minutes.
26:48
SPEAKER_00: It's like that's Ty's problem.
26:49
SPEAKER_00: It's like he wakes up and ten minutes later he's fucking bored, and then he wants to eat me out of house in home.
26:54
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, bro, go take a walk, dog go go play outside.
26:57
SPEAKER_00: Go well.
26:58
SPEAKER_00: The problem with that is is he has nobody to play outside with.
27:01
SPEAKER_00: So, like, you know, I mean, not that you know, when we were kids, we could find shit to do, but like right, there's really nothing for him to do it.
27:08
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, there's no outside activities anymore because he's a little bit older for that.
27:12
SPEAKER_00: He's not a sports guy.
27:14
SPEAKER_01: That that's literally why we're talking about when the boy outgrows the uh the swing set, it's gonna be we're gonna look into a swimming pool because I I have wanted a swimming pool forever, and I'm ready because right now would be amazing as hot as it is.
27:29
SPEAKER_00: Rihannan was has begged her dad for a pool for years.
27:33
SPEAKER_00: We were able to talk him into the trampoline, we were talking into the dogs, like he didn't want pets.
27:38
SPEAKER_00: We were able to talk him into that big ass um jungle gym that we had that I took down.
27:44
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I still say that was one of the saddest days because I know that dog.
27:48
SPEAKER_00: Like I remember like they had to like bring that to us in a truck because there was like so many, and it took me two and a half days to build that bitch.
28:00
SPEAKER_00: Um, but it lasted 11 years.
28:05
SPEAKER_00: I I brought my kids over a couple times to play on it with them.
28:08
SPEAKER_00: And we had the the trampoline, and then Ty's one of those people that like if it ain't video games, yeah, he only wants to play it if somebody else is there, right?
28:19
SPEAKER_00: Right.
28:20
SPEAKER_00: Like, that's just how he is.
28:21
SPEAKER_00: Like, he he has a hard time.
28:23
SPEAKER_00: Like, unfortunately, I mean, we are in this time, but the best way he entertains himself is watching YouTube shorts, you know.
28:32
SPEAKER_00: You know, I I will say this, I'm not a hundred percent like I I'm not for iPad parents that just give it to me here, keep your time.
28:42
SPEAKER_00: But Ty has learned a lot of shit from the internet when I was his age, I was like, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
28:50
SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
28:50
SPEAKER_00: So it's got its pluses and minuses.
28:53
SPEAKER_00: Obviously, there's dangers to it, and there's sick people out there that can fuck.
28:57
SPEAKER_00: Right.
28:58
SPEAKER_00: But, you know, outside of that, you know.
29:00
SPEAKER_01: Honestly, my favorite answer is when that when I start getting a ton of questions from my eight-year-old, it's like, bro, you've got Google.
29:09
SPEAKER_01: Well, I don't know the answer.
29:10
SPEAKER_00: Google it.
29:11
SPEAKER_00: Well, and that's what I tell Ty.
29:13
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, I I don't I I I know you think I do.
29:17
SPEAKER_00: Right, but I don't know.
29:18
SPEAKER_00: I don't know everything.
29:19
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I don't know.
29:20
SPEAKER_00: Matter of fact, I know closer to nothing than I do closer to everything.
29:27
SPEAKER_00: I'll give I am knowledgeable in some things.
29:31
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
29:31
SPEAKER_00: Um, but unfortunately, the other day I actually used a line that my dad used on me.
29:38
SPEAKER_00: I can't believe it.
29:39
SPEAKER_00: But uh he goes, he goes, let me guess, you forgot again.
29:46
SPEAKER_00: And I turned to him and I go, you know what, boy?
29:49
SPEAKER_00: I said, I forgot more than you've learned.
29:51
SPEAKER_00: Yep.
29:51
SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
29:52
SPEAKER_00: I pulled that line.
29:53
SPEAKER_00: God damn it, I'm like my fucking dad now.
29:56
SPEAKER_00: Like some bullshit, just like Jermaine told me, I sent him a picture, this was months ago, it was probably before Christmas or something.
30:03
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
30:04
SPEAKER_00: And I was, you know, trimmed.
30:06
SPEAKER_00: I'm I'm I'm a little bushy right now.
30:08
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, me too.
30:08
SPEAKER_00: I haven't felt like shaving.
30:10
SPEAKER_00: Nope.
30:10
SPEAKER_00: But uh he goes, Boy, you look like your damn daddy.
30:14
SPEAKER_00: I was like, I still don't know if that's a compliment.
30:16
SPEAKER_00: Right.
30:17
SPEAKER_00: Right.
30:18
SPEAKER_00: Because my dad was a handsome guy.
30:19
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I I will say that he was a good looking dude, and but he was just an asshole.
30:25
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
30:26
SPEAKER_00: I never met him, so I got to be.
30:27
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I still still to this day I tell people we did not have the best relationship.
30:32
SPEAKER_00: I do still have a lot of resentment, but I love the guy because he was my dad.
30:36
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, still your dad.
30:36
SPEAKER_00: Right.
30:37
SPEAKER_00: You know, and and he wasn't all bad.
30:39
SPEAKER_00: You know, he he came through a lot of times and and he did stuff, but yeah, you know.
30:47
SPEAKER_00: So, I mean that was a that was a pretty good just randomized fucking conversation.
30:54
SPEAKER_00: I love doing these games.
30:55
SPEAKER_00: This is so much fun.
30:56
SPEAKER_00: It it's it's wouldn't it be funny if we find out like these are the fucking things that people end up listening to?
31:01
SPEAKER_01: Right, because they're you know little short Well, I know we we're we're long form with an hour like well it we when it's topical, yes, I don't like to say specials, when it's topical, yes, you need time to discuss things.
31:13
SPEAKER_00: Right.
31:14
SPEAKER_00: And as you can see, an hour isn't really even enough.
31:16
SPEAKER_00: Sometimes a few of our episodes, the movies, the music, the video games, the Star Wars.
31:22
SPEAKER_00: I mean, we could do that multiple times.
31:24
SPEAKER_01: Oh, god I mean, so I know the first music episode went it's almost an hour and 20 minutes long.
31:29
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
31:30
SPEAKER_00: But on that note, we hit 80 for the Star Wars.
31:33
SPEAKER_00: I saw that.
31:34
SPEAKER_00: That's I was like, that's awesome.
31:36
SPEAKER_00: Fucking insane to me.

31:39
SPEAKER_01: Very first episode.

SPEAKER_01: Yeah, these guys suck.
31:46
SPEAKER_00: These guys suck.
31:50
SPEAKER_01: But no, I I enjoyed doing these.
31:52
SPEAKER_01: I'm glad it was one of those things that we thought about doing.
31:55
SPEAKER_00: And hold on, hold on.
31:58
SPEAKER_00: You thought about doing don't give me credit for that.
32:00
SPEAKER_00: This was your idea.
32:01
SPEAKER_00: All right, my baby then.
32:02
