  Speaker 1: I don't get any joy out of it. I didn't
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: even participate, but everybody else did. Most everybody else did.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: It was pretty funny, including my my my thirteen year
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: old Henry. He did the hottest one, the two million,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: whatever that number is. They got a scale right, and
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: it was the hottest one that they had. Yeah, candle power. Anyway,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: he was just he ran into the bathroom. We just
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: heard him in there and he yelled God damn. Oh
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that got big laughs out of everyone. Boy, it must
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: be a guy thing.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: My husband we bought that hot ones thing and he
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: did it with one of his friends and he completed it.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: He walked around like he just hulk smashed a building.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Like he was like, yeah, it was like the biggest
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: testosterone boost I've ever seen in my life.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I guess it is a certain can you take it? Thing?
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Because my brother the you know, served in Iraq several times.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Guy really likes taking on the hot sauce.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Wow, how interesting?
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Uh? What was I leading up to? Oh? These couple
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: of things I came across, I don't know, they don't
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: fit in. I'll do that.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, you know, I walk around with
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: crippling joint pain all the time. So I'm good, Frankly,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: you burn your mouth with hot sauce. I'm good over here.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I got my thing.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: You got you.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: It's always don't see the appeal.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: It's always seemed a little bit to me like I'll
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: take these players and pinch you really hard? Is it here?
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: How about I pinch you here really hard.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Wow can hold her hand over a burner loss, although
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: you're not going to give yourself third degree burns obviously
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: with hot sauce.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: So the the Hot Sauce game thing came with a
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: stack of cards and questions on them, and the way
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to play the game is you can either
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: answer the question or eat the hot sauce. And the
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: questions are like embarrassing or revealing. So it's kind of
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: a you know, thirteen year old. Now we've reached it
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: worked up to the really hot hot sauce, and here's
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the question. The questions were way too filthy and dirty.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: My son chose poorly. I should have looked at the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: box before we bought it at Target. I was looking
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: through it. I mean, just like this is for early
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: twenty something drunk people sitting around. I mean, you know,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: what was your worst one night stand? And just you know,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: just stuff like that, a lot of them. But I
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: dug out for parenting. I dug out a bunch of
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the questions that were okay for the family and parenting,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: and then we did those and we didn't end up
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: doing them for the Hot saucing. We just tried the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: hot sauce on chips. But this was just conversation starters.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I just needed something we got. We're all sitting around
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and after like the initial I don't know if anybody
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: else has I've ever had this happen before, but get
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: all the family together and everything like that, and there's
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a big burst of energy. Then that kind of a
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: bit of a lull happens, and now we got to
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: come up with something we gotta Well, first of you,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: of all, you go out to eat like nine times,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: but when you can't constantly go out to eat, so
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: he gets so.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: So many cookies. I am now a cookie addict. Oh lord.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: So I dug out some of the questions and what
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: was the one I was going to do before I
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: get to the final one? Oh, this is a pretty
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: decent one. It was kind of interesting because I'm there
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: as a parent with my kids, and then my parents
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: were there with their kids and grandkids, and the question
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: was what trait would you least like to pass down
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to your kids?
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Oh that's heavy.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I thought it was damned interesting. Again with
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the family relations there. It was interesting me because my
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: dad said, patience, I wish I I wish I had
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: more patience. I don't have much patience. I never have
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and I don't like that, and I wouldn't want to
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: pass that along. And I thought, huh, I've kind of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: got that patience. I've got different things that bothered me
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: more than that. But like, my son really has no patience.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: So and I have no idea if that's a genetic
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: thing or not.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of it is.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: What would your answer be.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, my god, mine, that might be it. Uh yeah, yeah,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: it would be something like that. Yeah, just patience, ability
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: to look, you can make your point later. I'm thinking
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: back to you know, I was a young parent and
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: ran a little hot and there were times it took
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: me a while to learn. Look, you can't make the
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: point tonight with your angry, misbehaving kid. Just plant the seed,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: throw a little fertilizer on it, and just leave it alone.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: And don't you know, don't try to close the deal
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: with a kid who's freaking out or whatever. Just let
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: it rest. Something like that. Just I don't know how
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: it'd phrase it exactly. Give me a minute, I could
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: probably come up with it.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: But it was interesting to have, you know, hear my
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: dad say it. With me there and then I've got
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: one from my mind was procrastination. I just I don't
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to pass that on to my kids,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and I have to one of them, but not the
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: other one. So that's cool, Katie. Since you're planning to
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: have a family, what trade of years would you not
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: like to pass along?
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: I would say my anxiety or my lack of ability
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: to identify what's in my control, Like I tend to
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: worry about things that I can't do anything about.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to bring that up on the air.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I was interesting with a very big group of people
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: and like the weather conditions getting worse, there the different
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: levels of being worried about it, given that the result
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: is going to be the same either way, the person
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: that worries zero about it or the person that is
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: and I'm not going to mention any names, infinitely worried
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: about it, like to a really high point, the result
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: will be the same way, the same either way, which
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: is very interesting about worry and.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: The challenge in front of you will be the same.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and not to be too much of a downer.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Is like my son who's got a variety of issues.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: He said, I don't want to pass along my OCD,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: which was Michael, anything you don't want to pass along
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: to your cats?
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Done? No, Maybe jealousy sometimes you get jealous of others
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: a little bit.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, a little bit envious. Interesting, that's a good one man. Yeah. Yeah.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, speaking of cats, Michael, for what it's worth, our
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: daughter brought her cats with her and they have been
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: were in my home.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: For gosh, when did she get here? I know there's
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: an s on there, is it? Two or fifteen?
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Two?
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Two cats, brothers, very very cute little fellas.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: I'm at least provisionally, I'm not on team cat like
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: versus dog. But I had a lot of fun with
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: the cats, really enjoyed their company fellas.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: And then so one more card and this will be
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the end of the One More Thing podcast for today.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: The question was have you ever shoplifted? And there are
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: only two people that had in our big group. I
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: never have. Maybe we answered some questions here, Michael, have
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: you ever shoplifted?
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: No, Katie, No on accident, but no on accident. Yeah,
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I walked out of it. I walked out of a
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: target with a parasun glasses on my head and when
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: I got realized it, drove back, returned them, got a
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: crazy look.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: That's sent in mind. It is. Yes, absolutely, as a kid,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I fell under the sway of some older boys who
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: were not a good influence at all. I was probably
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: eight years old, I might have been nine something like that,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: and there's some of the neighborhood boys and they kind
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: of adopted me and that's what they're doing, and I'm like,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: all right. It was a good learning experience, though it
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: honestly was because the because we got busted because we
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: were stupid kids, and the whatever you call the security
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: guy at the stag prevention Uh, yeah, exactly, that's the
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: term I was looking for, chewed us out. I mean,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: like really till there were tears. And then mom and
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: dad came and it was like oh And at that
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: young age, I hadn't fully appreciated that I am a
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: extension of my parents and my siblings and my family.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: And we have a joke I probably shouldn't do the
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: accent we do it in but as our kids embark
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: on something, they will say to each other, we will
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: say to them, bring pot pride to family. And it
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: helped me really appreciate that.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one. That's a good thing. It
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: didn't happen in you know, modern California up until a
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: month ago, that nobody would have busted you, you know.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Just all right, could Yeah, built a career as a criminal,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: probably a very successful career. So one more thought on
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: the hot sauce thing. While I do not find any
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: joy in seeing who can endure the most pain to
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: their nerve endings in their mouth, the idea of trying
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: to maintain your cool and like speak coherently while you
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: are dealing with the hot sauce that is very funny.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's why. Yeah, that's why that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: show is funny. Just google the Shack episode, watch it.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: So on the did you shoplift? Two people in the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: group of everybody said yes. My one niece said yes,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: and we're all shocked, and and she said, yeah, she
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: kind of does it for fun. And I have a
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: friend who, like super successful. It's a very smart person
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: who who went through a big shoplifting phase in their
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: twenties and it was just the thrill of it. That
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: wasn't stuff they needed or anything. They got like a
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: thrill out of it. It's like people who lie for
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: the thrill of it or whatever. So I've never had that.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: But then my dad shockingly said I did once. I
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: did once, And it was like, for some reason, my dad,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: now that he's eighty seven, tell stories that he's never
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: told ever in his life. And I don't know if
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: he didn't think we could handle it or what, but
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: he tells stories now that we're like my brothers and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I are always like where, why were you holding onto
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: this your whole life?
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Right? I had that experience with my eighty four year
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: old dad this past summer. He was in the Air
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Force during the Vietnam War and he got out in
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: the early seventies, and he explained because he'd quote unquote
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: explained why to me earlier in my life, but he'd
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: left out like a lot of it, which was he
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: was fully cognizant of how dishonest the Department of Defense
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: and the White House were being about the war and.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: He hated it. Wow, that's interesting.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: And he'd never uttered a word of that to me.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: That is interesting. Yeah, So my dad says I did once,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: and we're all like what. Because my dad is super honest,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: law and order guy, which I really appreciate, And he said, Yeah,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I was in the army and I was working KP
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: in the kitchen and I stole something out of the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: kitchen and took it back to my room, and I
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: felt so guilty about it. The next day I never
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: stole anything again. We said, what did you take? Hey,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: here it comes a gallon jar of olives.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Well, one of the great pleasures in life.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: What the freak are you gonna do with a gallon
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: of olives? You're one thing you steal in your whole life.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: You're gonna sit back and enjoy those What you're gonna
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: do of olives?
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Long day in the kitchen? You canna pop a little olive?
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I guess that's part of the hole.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: You grow up without electricity or indoor plumbing thing, you know,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: the joy of an olive may have been pretty exciting
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: for that part.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: It's like when I read Tom Sawyer to the kids,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: they are like, why are they getting so excited about
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: an apple? Well, they didn't have apple. I guess that's
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: one of was my dad a jar of olives stolen
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Army olives. The guy that was with him stole a
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: half gallon of ice cream and stuck it under his shirt.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: On on the way back to the barracks, they got
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: stopped and had to stand in the hot sun for
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: a while, and that ice cream started to melt and
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: he became one big wet stain of ice cream. I
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: don't know, I didn't ask for My dad must have
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: stashed the gallon jar of olives, because that's not easy
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to e'd either.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, oh, of all, I don't think.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: No, surely you can't suit case of gallon jar of olives,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: not with that attitude. You can't.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: Okay, ship, you see what I put up with? Well,
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: I guess that's it.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Oh and and all Back
