  Speaker 1: After show, Army, What's up? Welcome to a Monday. Thank
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: you so much for listening. As always, I appreciate it
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: so so much.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: It is the day after Easter. I hope you had
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: a great Easter with your family.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Hopefully you ate a lot of good food and spend
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of quality time with the fam.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: I know I did.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I had a great weekend, you know, spent a lot
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: of time with the family, which I love. Doing gets
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: a little bit stressful because you know, we have two
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: young children. But we went to the movies on Saturday night.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: We saw the Super Mario Brothers movie, which my kids
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: loved well.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Abel did.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Jemma is a little bit too young, especially for Super Mario.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I feel like if it was Paul Patrol or something,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: she might be more into it. But she didn't really
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: get it. She got kind of flustered halfway through the movie,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: so she really wasn't disruptive, but she was kind of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: squirming around, sitting on my lab, sitting on her lap.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Wasn't watching the movie, but my son was locked in
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: and it was a good movie. We saw the first
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: one of the theaters and it was the first movie
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: that my son ever sat through. Imagine that his mind
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: is a little bit crazy. His brain, he's got active brain,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: what I call it, so you know, it's hard for
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: him to focus. But the Mario Brothers movie was the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: first one that he sat through, so he sat through
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: this one too. He's also sat through a separate movies
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: since then.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: This one.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: He was really young, well like two or three years
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: ago whenever the last movie came out, but he loved
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it more than the first one. I thought the first
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: one was better because it had more of the city
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: in at Brooklyn or of course Mario and Luigi are from.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: This one was all space, which was cool, you know,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: but you know, all the galaxies and they had Yoshi,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: which is good. So check it out if you have kids,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: they'll love it, trust me. And then Easter yesterday was
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: at my house. We did not go out to eat
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: as we typically do. We stayed home, low key, a
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: bunch of food Nana cooked, and Nannie cooked a bunch
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: of you know, Italian food.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Stuffshells, meatball, sausages.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: There was pizza gana, there was a ham, there was
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: mashed potatoes.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, it was good.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: And I had a couple of my buddies over Mike
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and Allen came over and spent the day. We did
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: some sna ice bath before dinner, so we get out
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: of the ice and the sauna feeling like a million bucks,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: and then we smashed a bunch of food.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: So it was great.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: It was a great time. So and my reading continues.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I'm just checking in all the things. I'm trying to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: hit everything that I want to share with you guys.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: My reading continues. I finished the Verity book, which was
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the Colleen Hoover book.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Who you know it's a girl's book. I didn't know that.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: You know, I talked about that, I posted about it.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I did not know that it was a girl's book.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: It was just recommended to me by all of you.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I got multiple recommendations for that book. I knocked out
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: out in like two days. Great book, great book, great twist.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be a movie in October, so that's good.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I'm continuing my streak of reading books and then watching
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: the movies. And yeah, I mean halfway through it, I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: was reading it and there was like some real intense
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: sex scenes, you know, and it's from the female's point
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: of view. So I'm reading it thinking to myself, this
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: is really like a chick book.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: But I still liked it. It was still good.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: But I will say, and I'm wondering if you agree
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: with me on this, if you read a lot of
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: these types of books, these thrillers, these so called you know,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: quote unquote chickbooks. Because I've read so far The Housemaid,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I read The Silent Patient, and now I've read Verity,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: which are three kind of similar books. You can usually
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: predict what's going to happen, and the storylines are all
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: pretty similar. Right, There's well, at least in The Housemaid
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: of Verity, there were two females, one guy, two are married,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: and then the guy starts banging the other girl, and
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: then there's a crazy twist at the end. The Verity
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: had a good twist. I kind of predicted it, but
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: it was still.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Good when it came. And it was creepy.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: There were a couple of creepy parts where I was
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: reading in bed, in bed before I go to sleep,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and how is a little bit shook? I had a
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: little bit shook when I get up to go to
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the bathroom in my dark house. I was like a
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: little freaked out by it. I don't know, you have
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to read the book to check it out, or just
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: see the movie comes out in October, or read the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: book and then see the movie.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: But I did order.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Project Tail Mary, which is in theaters now, which is
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: going to continue my streak of reading a book and
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: then watching the movie. I know Lisa saw, producer Riley
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: saw it. They loved it. It was number one at
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the box office, I think, two weekends in a row.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: And I like Ryan Gosling. So I ordered the book.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: It came and I bought one hundred pages in and
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I really really like it, really really good. And I'm
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: not really into sci fi that much. I do like
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: space stuff, but this one is very well written. I
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: can see that I'm really gonna like it. So one
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: hundred pages in on that, and then I got another
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: recommendation from another listener. It's so funny. I'm just ordering
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: books like crazy. A listener sent me a recommendation. You know,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: she's over the weekend. She goes, oh, you should read
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: this book. You would love it. It's called I think
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: it's called Runner, and she tells me about it.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I just went on Amazon. I put in a Runner
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: and there it was ten bucks. I just ordered it.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: So I sent the screenshot right back to her like
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a minute later. She was probably thinking, this dude is nuts,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: But that's what I'm doing. It is getting expensive, though,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna get a library card. I think that's better.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Or someone suggested a kindle would I'm not sure about
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: because I like holding the book, but the kindle would
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: make more sense. But isn't the kindle a screen. I'm
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: trying to get away from screens. I don't know, I
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know how I feel about that.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: So I think the library card is the way to go.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I can go check out several books because I'm knocking
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: them out pretty fast, you know, two three days. I'm
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: banging them out because anytime that I'm going to be
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: on my phone, I.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Just read instead.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: So the trick is I'll so after like when I
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: eat lunch, when I get home, for example, typically what
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I would do is I would be on my phone
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: while I eat my lunch, and then I would be
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: done with eating and I would sit there or lay
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: there and chill until I go to the gym, which
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: could be an hour or an hour and a half, and
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I would just be on my phone swiping, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: So now what I do is, while I'm eating, I'll
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: look at my phone. I'll check what I need to check,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: and then I put the phone away and I read
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: until I go to the gym, and then the same
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: thing I do. I do the same thing at dinner,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: and then after I, you know, do my sauna ice
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: thing that I do every single night. I'll come up,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: I'll look at my phone briefly, just like take any
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: notes that I need for the show, and then I
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: put the phone down and I read until bed, you know,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: And then I'll look at my phone before right before
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I go to bed, to like set my alarms. And
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: that plan seems to be working. And I gotta tell you,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I do feel better. Get I feel like I'm sleeping better.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I feel like I can fall asleep faster because I'm
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: not just swiping and looking at useless stuff, you know,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: every night now that I think about it every night,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: whether it be not falling asleep because I have a
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: song stuck in my head from a real or a
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: TikTok that I watched, or if I watch something disturbing
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: because Twitter is completely disturbing. It's kind of a two
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: way street there on Twitter because I get a lot
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: of my news there, but also there's a lot of
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: really messed up things that are on my algorithm. So
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: if I watch a freaking death video or something, then
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: that's stuck in my head and it ruins my sleep.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I can't fall asleep. But when I'm reading, I feel
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: like I can go right to sleep. So it's been great, man,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I'm really happy about it. My dad was up yesterday.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I was talking to him. He's a big reader, he's
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: always been a big reader. He was happy to hear
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that my dad's old theory. When I think he's right about,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: you know, reading as you get older, how important it is,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: and if you're just staring at a screen all day long,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: it's not good. So you know here, I am mister longevity, right.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I'm really into health and wellness and I love taking
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: care of myself my body, but I'm not taking care
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: of my mind. That's what I feel like as I
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: get older, I don't want to be just staring at
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the phone NonStop. So it's going good. It's going good.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: So I will give a review on Project Hail Mary.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: All right, that's coming for the people that care. I
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: don't know they justin just checking in.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Just want to actually quit the question.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I know you and your family went to the DreamWorks
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: water Park last year in New Jersey. I just put
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the trip there with my little family. I just want
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to know if you have any recommendations, anything I should
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: be aware of, anything you think the little ones would like.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: I have a third year old and an eight year old.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Thanks in advanced brother.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Oh American Dream Yes, we went two years ago to
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: wait No. Last year we went last March. Okay, recommendations.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: So it's a mall. It's the second largest mall in America.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: So they have a ton of stores. They also have
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: things you can do in some of the stores, like
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: they have a virtual reality thing.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: They have a.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Racing thing, so you can do those kind of things.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: And then have the water park and the amusement park.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: So what we did is we separated everything. So we
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: did three days there. We did one day where we
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: went to New York. We drove into the city and
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: then also kind of went around the mall. We shopped
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: a little bit. We kind of had the kids playing
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: some of those things. You know, they have these ponies
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: that you.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Can ride around the mall.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: You'll see them when you get there. Then another day
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: we did the amusement park. Another day we did the
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: water park. If I was to go again, I would
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: not dedicate an entire day to the amusement park because
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: it's not that big. So you can do a half
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: day at the amusement park and be good. But the
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: water park is giant. It's the biggest water park I've
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: ever ever been to in my life. Easily can do
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: a whole day there. So I don't think you said,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: how long are you gonna be going there? But just
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: you know, factor that in you can do a whole
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: day at the amusement park. We kind of found that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: by halfway the kids were done with all the rides.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: They had done all the rides, you know, five ten times,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: and they were kind of sick of it. It it's a
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: small area, so I don't know if you want to
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: take it and dedicate a whole a whole day there.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: So we did New York.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: We did went to the Sopranos House, we did some
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: sight seeing, and then we did you know, the Mall
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Amusement Park, water park. So enjoy it, have fun. It's
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: it's really really great. And like I said, they have
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: a ton of stuff to do inside the mall, aside
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: from the amusement parks and the water parks.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: So have a blast. It'll be great.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know when you're going, but we went in March.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: It was kind of it wasn't that bad. It wasn't
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: that cold, so we were able to Actually was it cold?
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: I forget. I think it was kind of chilly in
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: New York. So anyway, have fun, report back, let me
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: know what you think. My kids loved it. They actually
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: want to go back. So it was cool to drive
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: around too. I mean the city was rough, but way
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: we stayed was right next to American Dreams kind of
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: overlook New York. Like our hotel room overlook the skyline
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: of New York, which my kids thought was was really cool.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: So that's good. Coming up Wednesday, my wife will be
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: on the podcast Jen. Yes, you guys were right. You
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: predicted it. I think it's Jen That's going to be
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: a podcast, which pretty sure. I was the first one
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: to request that after Way last. But anyways, I'm so excited,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: and give me some questions, sir, or she'd probably hate that,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: so maybe not. Yeah, talk backer Sarah. I think you
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: were the first to suggest that my wife is the
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: most requested person to have on this podcast. I get
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: dms all the time. People mention it to me all
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: the time. You know, I've had my friends on and
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: they always ask, you know, when are you going to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: have your wife jen on?
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Because I get it.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: You know, you hear so much of me, and I
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: talk so much about my family and my marriage and
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: my wife. I tell stories about her, but we've never
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: actually heard from her. So I understand that I just
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: had never asked her because I didn't think she would.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: And then I randomly asked her last week kind of
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: jokingly and she said yeah, And then I didn't think
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: that she was serious. That's why I was kind of
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: teasing it, and she confirmed it. She put it on
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: the calendar, which if you're married and your wife manages
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: a calendar, you know what I'm talking about. If it's
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: not on the calendar, it's not real. And if you
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: try to plan something on a day when something's on
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the calendar for that day, bad bad, bad bad. I
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: know that I learned the hard way. But it's on
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the calendar. Wednesday, she will be in here, and yes,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you can take questions. I did ask her. I said,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: people are gonna leave talk backs asking questions.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Is that okay? She said fine.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: She doesn't seem nervous about it, but she just really
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: doesn't know what it is because she doesn't listen to
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the after show. So she's like, I don't want to
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: What are we going to talk about?
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Is it like an interview? And I'm like, no, it's
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: not an interview. It's a conversation, is what it is.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: And I'll lead it, you know, I'll lead the conversation.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: And I just want to talk to her about us,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: right our life, the life that we've built, a little
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: bit maybe a little bit of her story, what she
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: went through, how we got together, our love story, our children,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: our family, our current situation, getting clean, staying clean. I mean,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: all that stuff is fair game. I don't know where
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: it's gonna go, but it's gonna be all that stuff.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: You know, you can get, you know, some point of view,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: her point of view and her response to all the
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: things that I say. You know, I mean, I I
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: love my wife more than anything. You know that I
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: do nothing but praise her. So yeah, we could talk
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: about everything, her chickens, her love of chickens, her midlife
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: crisis and just her life and her story because I
• 12:38
