<v Speaker 1>Right out the gate here, I'm just gonna lay it

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:06.680
<v Speaker 1>out there. I'm gonna speak on behalf of the viewing

0:00:06.760 --> 0:00:09.200
<v Speaker 1>audience and simply put, I mean, what do you what

0:00:09.240 --> 0:00:11.719
<v Speaker 1>do you have to say for yourself? What is it

0:00:11.760 --> 0:00:15.680
<v Speaker 1>that you have to say for yourself? How dare you? Melissa?

0:00:15.920 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>How dare you? I know you got everybody all riled

0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 1>up in saying yourself.

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 2>I got everyone riled up last week and I had

0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 2>a few people, one hundred people write me and ask

0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:29.560
<v Speaker 2>me to please explain myself.

0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Would you like to offer up a retraction? Okay, because I,

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 1>as your husband, I don't know that I've ever been

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:40.040
<v Speaker 1>uh so so reluctant to lend my support over over

0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to your side of the table. You lie for shame

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 1>for shame.

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 3>I like, you say the same thing, and I'm the

0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 3>only one that gets in trouble.

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:48.720
<v Speaker 1>I am joking just to make this like super duper clear,

0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>totally joking. Welcome back to the New World Old Soul Podcast.

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back, guys.

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 3>If you're back, thanks for coming.

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 1>You mean set the stage here in real time. It's

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>been like three days, four days since we record, since

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>we posted on this channel previously, and a good chunk

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>of that conversation revolved around the halftime show the Super Bowl,

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:12.319
<v Speaker 1>regushing about the Seahawks. I know it was a very

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 1>small portion of the conversation, but it got people really

0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:15.680
<v Speaker 1>fired up in the comments, and so they wanted to

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 1>come in here to address some of the questions and

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:23.040
<v Speaker 1>concerns and confusion that so many people expressed. And we're

0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>joking here in the onset about all of this, but

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:28.560
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's been a thing, and Melissa has been stewing.

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 3>I've been about it.

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 1>We're being totally honest and transparent here.

0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 3>I've been. I've been stewing.

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:37.800
<v Speaker 1>This is like read this one and I'm like, no, well, okay.

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.760
<v Speaker 3>I felt a little misunderstood.

0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:45.440
<v Speaker 2>And I think people I think people got pretty upset

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 2>over what I mean. I guess I just didn't coming

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 2>out of the podcast, I didn't see that it was

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 2>going to cause a big upset, but then it did.

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 3>And I couldn't tell if it was just people.

0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Did you say a big upset?

0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't tell if it was just people kind of

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 2>like jumping all on the bandwagon, or if what I said.

0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 3>Was actually that upsetting or that confusing.

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 2>So I had some people that I do recognize as

0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 2>regulars writing me and saying, could you please clarify because

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 2>it was so off brand for you that we were

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 2>left feeling very confused because it doesn't mirror what you

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:19.840
<v Speaker 2>normally say.

0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I didn't necessarily feel that way. I mean, I

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 1>put the episode together and I was a little shocked

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 1>by it as well. I guess here's what I think happened,

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:30.119
<v Speaker 1>and let's let's review exactly what it is that was said. Basically,

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>we expressed that we were very happy this US won

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a Super Bowls the halftime show, I indicated that I

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 1>left the stupid bad Bunny thing on because I didn't

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 1>want to miss a second of the game, rather than

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>turning over to the kid rock performance that was produced

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.600
<v Speaker 1>by Turning Point USA. So many of our audience it

0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:48.160
<v Speaker 1>sounds like, did go over to watch.

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 3>With the Great American halftime shows, Great.

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:51.600
<v Speaker 1>American half I'm shure, I love it. I'm glad that

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>people moved over. I would have moved over to had

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>it been like of greater significance to me. It just

0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 1>really wasn't quite Honestly, I said that I took a

0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 1>bathroom break. I want to got something to eat. The

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>stupid bad bunny thing was on TV. I to be

0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>totally honest with you, I don't know that I digested

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.640
<v Speaker 1>more than twenty seconds of that halftime show. I said

0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.360
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast that it was in Spanish, So if

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 1>there was anything that I was supposed to take offense to,

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>it went over my head, right, Okay, you.

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Said, Okay, So I said that. I basically I wasn't

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:23.680
<v Speaker 2>really surprised by it, or like I thought that they

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:24.960
<v Speaker 2>were going to go on there and make a really

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.320
<v Speaker 2>big political statement, like an anti ICE political statement. And

0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>then when I watched it, I mean I had no

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>idea what he was saying. But when I watched it,

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.680
<v Speaker 2>I was like, okay, Like to me, it just looked

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.360
<v Speaker 2>like all these different Latin countries.

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 1>You also were like sitting in front of the TV plane.

0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.840
<v Speaker 3>No, I mean we took it. We made pizza. It

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 3>was a bathroom break. I was changing Mica.

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I was like a talk about the game.

0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the halftime show to us is like recess whatever,

0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, get up and do what you need to do.

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 2>But we did have it on, and I did glance

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 2>at it a few times, and I figured we were

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 2>going to come on here and at least briefly talk

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.279
<v Speaker 2>about it. I didn't know it would become such a controversy,

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.760
<v Speaker 2>and so from the little bit that I saw, I

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:05.240
<v Speaker 2>was like, okay, so basically he's saying that any part

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:08.520
<v Speaker 2>of the America, South America, North America, all these different

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 2>countries are all American.

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Wait, But we didn't know that at the time,

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 1>because again, well, I.

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 2>Mean that's when I gathered from it. I thought it

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 2>was going to be like an anti Ice statement. When

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:17.479
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't, I was like, okay, I.

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Would just want to provide a little context here. So

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:22.960
<v Speaker 1>we watched the game on Sunday, obviously Super Bowl Sunday.

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:24.719
<v Speaker 1>We came in here the next morning, it was Monday morning.

0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>We were like glowing from our wind, like we indicated

0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:29.400
<v Speaker 1>on the episode, and we offered up our opinion on

0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 1>all things, including the halftime show. It was at that

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 1>point that I think, just in the internet space and

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:37.679
<v Speaker 1>in the media, that they were all all these narratives

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:40.160
<v Speaker 1>began to be pushed. We had tons of people referencing

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Glenn Beck, who as far as like breaking down.

0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.159
<v Speaker 2>So there were some there were different podcasters that I

0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 2>guess a lot of you guys listened to that broke

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 2>down the bad bunny lyrics. He's saying, I think four songs.

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 2>One of them was explicit, the other three they really weren't,

0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:57.600
<v Speaker 2>So one was bad. Now a lot of people are saying,

0:04:57.600 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 2>why wasn't he fine? Why wasn't he you know, why

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 2>was he allowed to sing this song and everything?

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.920
<v Speaker 3>So what was explained.

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:08.000
<v Speaker 2>After the fact after, Like, if you look up the

0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.520
<v Speaker 2>original lyrics, the song is horrible. We didn't know that

0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.039
<v Speaker 2>at the time when we recorded the podcast. We just

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.240
<v Speaker 2>came on here and talked like we were talking.

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:17.359
<v Speaker 1>We didn't understand what.

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:18.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we didn't know what they were saying.

0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 2>When I read the lyrics, I was like, oh my gosh, yeah,

0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:24.280
<v Speaker 2>that the song was really really bad. But then later

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:29.479
<v Speaker 2>I discovered through doing more research that the really explicit

0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 2>parts were actually retracted.

0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 3>From the song.

0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 2>He didn't sing them or perform there was It was

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 2>the radio version, So the really bad parts where you're like, oh, wow,

0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 2>he actually didn't sing those during And I'm not defending him.

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I think he was a horrible garbage choice. Nobody knew

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 2>who he was. He sings explicit content, he dresses in

0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.800
<v Speaker 2>women's clothing, he does all kinds of stuff that I

0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 2>would consider not family friendly. The NFL is definitely just

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:56.799
<v Speaker 2>like sticking it to Yeah.

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 1>I will say, maybe we didn't place enough emphasis on

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.719
<v Speaker 1>that part of it. We didn't like the choice the dancers,

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 1>the like the gyration and everything, and maybe sad to

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 1>say on our part, but it wasn't just that Partners

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>wasn't surprising or shocking. It was completely expected by both

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>myself and Melissa, and so when we saw it, I

0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know that it required any further comment. Show maybe

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:16.360
<v Speaker 1>pointed that on the episode.

0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:19.919
<v Speaker 2>Sure, but we're I guess I wasn't surprised by the

0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 2>dancing because a lot of people are referencing the dancing.

0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't surprised by it because it's no different than

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 2>what we saw last year or the year before, or

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:27.599
<v Speaker 2>the year before or the year before.

0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it goes all the way back.

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Rihanna's dancing her halftime show was by far way more

0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 2>gross and she.

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:36.039
<v Speaker 3>Was pregnant while doing it.

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:41.000
<v Speaker 2>And then like j Low's and Shakiro were poll dancing

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 2>during the halftime show, Beyonce's dancers were like a newer

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and they were dancing just as bad. It's the norm

0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:52.560
<v Speaker 2>that it's just gross, which is why Turning Point offered

0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:54.560
<v Speaker 2>up an alternative, and I think that's great.

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:56.600
<v Speaker 3>I think that we can You know.

0:06:56.720 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Everybody speaks with viewership because you were ship equals dollars,

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.040
<v Speaker 2>you speak with your dollars. So I think it's great

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 2>that there's an alternative. So what I stated last week

0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 2>that really upset people's right is where I got in

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:13.920
<v Speaker 2>trouble there that Kid Rock wouldn't have been my personal

0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 2>choice for family friendly entertainer because I don't consider kid

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:24.160
<v Speaker 2>Rock to be family friendly. Now, if you aren't very

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:27.400
<v Speaker 2>familiar with kid Rock, and all you know is what

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:32.120
<v Speaker 2>you've seen lately or what you've been told through other podcasts,

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 2>then I can understand why you were upset with me.

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:38.600
<v Speaker 2>But I grew up listening to kid Rock and seeing

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:43.880
<v Speaker 2>his many arrests and the stuff he does and the

0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:48.720
<v Speaker 2>heavy oh yeah multiple times for different assaults, and the

0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 2>video that you know, so there is stuff like kid Rock.

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>To me was always I wasn't allowed to listen to

0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 2>Kid Rock.

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.440
<v Speaker 1>We foolheartedly believe in the power of redemption.

0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Yes, however, okay, so this is this is where else

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 2>I got in trouble. So I had quite a few

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Christian people saying, well, so how dare you judge him?

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Because he is now saved, he is now a Christian,

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:14.800
<v Speaker 2>he's now a christ follower. Therefore, you are not allowed

0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 2>to cast judgment. You're not allowed to cast shade. I

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.040
<v Speaker 2>was accused of doing or question somebody's salvation.

0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 3>Now I know Matthew.

0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Seven verse one, you know, judge not lest you be judged,

0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 2>And I understand that. I do feel like that verse

0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:38.000
<v Speaker 2>is taken out of context. I know, because we all

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 2>it's not that you should go around judging everyone like obviously,

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:44.000
<v Speaker 2>like if you continue reading, it talks about removing the

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:45.839
<v Speaker 2>plank out of your own eye so that you can

0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:48.480
<v Speaker 2>help the person with the speck in their eye. It

0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.040
<v Speaker 2>doesn't say don't help your neighbor with the speck in

0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 2>their eye. It says, first, remove the plank out of

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:55.480
<v Speaker 2>your own and so I.

0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Think it's more roll capable of judgment. Well, what is

0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>judgment without authority? I guess because kind of always my thing.

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:02.880
<v Speaker 1>You're you're able to form your own opinions, and you should.

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 1>You should fully embrace that. It helps you to navigate

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.199
<v Speaker 1>the world and help you to stay safe. Okay, you're

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 1>casting judgment upon somebody anybody moving on.

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 2>So okay, So going back a little bit before I

0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 2>really did into the whole judgment thing is because I'm

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 2>not like a judging mcjudge your pants. But I do

0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:24.280
<v Speaker 2>use discernment and I do use caution based on people's

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>past actions because I think that there's a character issue

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.840
<v Speaker 2>and can people change. Yes, people are like, what about

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.840
<v Speaker 2>the Apostle Paul. Yes, the Apostle Paul was a terrible person,

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 2>hunting down Christians and advocating for their murder, and then

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 2>he became the Apostle to the gentile and a great

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 2>great man. Now that doesn't mean that just because somebody

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.480
<v Speaker 2>claims to be a Christian that now we can no

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.559
<v Speaker 2>longer question anything.

0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:51.360
<v Speaker 3>That ever happened in the past.

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:54.080
<v Speaker 2>We have to just accept their word and then just

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 2>blindly trust them.

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 1>So we're talking about skepticism. Yeah, based on person's prior actions,

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>we have to use that.

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 2>So think about the church body, Like you can have

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:07.720
<v Speaker 2>somebody that gets out of prison for a crime against

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:12.959
<v Speaker 2>a child and they say, I'm now completely new, I've

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 2>found Christ and I'm a different person, and I left

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:17.960
<v Speaker 2>that person in the past and I would never ever

0:10:18.000 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 2>harm a child again do we and they want to work.

0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 3>In the Sunday school. And we see this in churches,

0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 3>we see it.

0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:26.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean there was a church right by where we

0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:29.200
<v Speaker 2>used to live in Washington State that allowed somebody who

0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>served time in prison for a crime against a child

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:33.960
<v Speaker 2>to serve in their Sunday school.

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:35.480
<v Speaker 3>And then seven.

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:39.120
<v Speaker 2>More victims over the course of three years, ended up

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:44.320
<v Speaker 2>surfacing because they trusted what this man said.

0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 1>We can discount a person's past, all that has to

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 1>be higging into consideration.

0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.959
<v Speaker 3>I think it's okay to use discern mine.

0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I completely agree with you, especially as a parent.

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.520
<v Speaker 1>So with regard to kid Rock, So with regard.

0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.520
<v Speaker 2>To kid Rock, he has a colorful past and a

0:10:58.559 --> 0:10:59.520
<v Speaker 2>colorful present.

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:03.960
<v Speaker 3>It's not that he's just like this, you know, like yes,

0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:05.040
<v Speaker 3>like let's have tea.

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, kid Rock is kid Rock, Like he still

0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:12.120
<v Speaker 2>gets up there and like like you know his music, yeah,

0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.840
<v Speaker 2>and you know he's still you know, on his Instagram

0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:17.760
<v Speaker 2>there's still a pretty recent picture of remember when bud

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Light didn't suck, And he's got Pamela Anderson crawling on

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:21.959
<v Speaker 2>him in underwear and you know, like.

0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:25.120
<v Speaker 3>He's still a little rough around the edges. And that's fine.

0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.280
<v Speaker 2>You can be a Christian and be rough around the edges.

0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.320
<v Speaker 2>God tends to pick people that are rough around the edges.

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:32.319
<v Speaker 2>We are a little rough around the edges. All I'm

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.800
<v Speaker 2>saying was he wouldn't have been my first pick for

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:40.760
<v Speaker 2>family friendly alternative entertainment because what I saw when I

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.480
<v Speaker 2>did watch the halftime show was that he performed one

0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:48.400
<v Speaker 2>of his more sketchy songs in my opinion, and he

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 2>performed it in English where we could understand the lyrics.

0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:53.720
<v Speaker 3>Yes, that's the song.

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:56.240
<v Speaker 2>So the very first song that he came out and performed,

0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:57.640
<v Speaker 2>he sang verse one two.

0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:00.360
<v Speaker 3>A lot of people were like, I didn't hear any bad.

0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:02.640
<v Speaker 2>It's like, well, maybe he just couldn't understand him, because

0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 2>if you actually go and look up the.

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 4>Lyrics, I don't consider that should be family friendly copyright trick.

0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 4>Maybe I'm an uppity, old prissy mom, but I don't

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:16.680
<v Speaker 4>find that song verse one to be family friendly.

0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.440
<v Speaker 1>It's artistic expression. And maybe some people have a very

0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 1>through low threshold for this.

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:22.839
<v Speaker 3>I guess they do. With the kid.

0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I've ever considered you to be one

0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:27.360
<v Speaker 1>of those people. But yeah, from a parental perspective. If

0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Turning Point is going to market their entire show as

0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:31.880
<v Speaker 1>being quote unquote family friendly, which was that the case?

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.560
<v Speaker 2>I just want to I mean, people were calling it

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:35.640
<v Speaker 2>the family friendly one.

0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:37.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that Turning Point did so.

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:39.280
<v Speaker 1>And the point, the point you made to me here

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 1>in our private discussion here in our home, was that

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:44.080
<v Speaker 1>bad bunny, right.

0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:48.599
<v Speaker 2>We didn't expect anything good from him. I expected that.

0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:48.280
<v Speaker 3>That to suck.

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:52.599
<v Speaker 1>There were no curse words in his performance. They were retracted.

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 2>They were retracted instead of using the effort because people

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 2>are accused four efforts.

0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:58.160
<v Speaker 3>No, he actually said fight.

0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Not that that's read either. He's on Marvel Choice Television

0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 1>and FCC being the FCC right covers.

0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 3>Fine.

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 1>You pointed out that Kid Rock during his performance actually swore.

0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, okay, can I can I just read you what

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:15.040
<v Speaker 2>he actually sang at the Turning Point halftime show verse one.

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 2>This is this is what it is, and this is

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.800
<v Speaker 2>for the questions that don't have answers. The Midnight Glancers

0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 2>and the topless Dancers, the can of Freaks, cars packed

0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:27.840
<v Speaker 2>with speakers, the G's with the forties and the Clicks

0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:31.120
<v Speaker 2>with the fevers. Okay, the Northern Lights and Southern comfort,

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:34.000
<v Speaker 2>and it don't matter if your veins are punctured. Reference

0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:37.960
<v Speaker 2>to heroin, all the crackheads, the critics, the cynics, and

0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 2>all my heroes at the methadone clinics, all you bastards

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 2>at the I R s. For the crooked cops and

0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.480
<v Speaker 2>the cluttered desks, for the shots of Jack and the

0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 2>caps of meth, half pints of love and fifth of stress.

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:57.640
<v Speaker 2>All the hookers that are tricking out in Hollywood like this.

0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:01.600
<v Speaker 2>He sang this live the Alternative Halftime Show.

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that song, and I'm not going to like that

0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:06.520
<v Speaker 1>for kid rock. First, well, I thinks hilarious that you're

0:14:06.559 --> 0:14:07.240
<v Speaker 1>not one of these moms.

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:10.240
<v Speaker 3>I know read how old I am.

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>That song is from when we were in high school.

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I think like that.

0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.000
<v Speaker 3>I remember so I heard it and I was like, oh.

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Like that's what he said. His entire messaging with his

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 1>performance is the fact that he's a change man now

0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:23.240
<v Speaker 1>and he left all that in the past, right, so

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 1>fair enough.

0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.720
<v Speaker 2>Like for me, I loved the symbolism. I loved this

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:29.160
<v Speaker 2>is the you know, kid rock, and then he's being

0:14:29.240 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 2>kid rock and then like, don't I know I look

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:32.560
<v Speaker 2>so old right now?

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh? God, my kids are gonna cringe.

0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.360
<v Speaker 2>And then the name goes out, and then there's that

0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.840
<v Speaker 2>beautiful duo that plays like the orchestra music.

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:42.880
<v Speaker 3>Yes, and then he's.

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Reintroduced as Richie right, his real name, and he comes

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 2>out and he shares the gospel, and to me, that

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:51.480
<v Speaker 2>was so powerful and so beautiful, and I absolutely love it.

0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:56.720
<v Speaker 2>I just wish that maybe, like maybe if he had

0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 2>come out and just did the like kid rock part

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:00.840
<v Speaker 2>and then saying that first part you.

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.960
<v Speaker 3>Know it of the song and then maybe didn't.

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Sing verse one and then like the like I feel

0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:08.080
<v Speaker 2>like it could have been done a little bit more

0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 2>family friendly, just me if I were in charge. Clearly

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm not because I'm a big lame, dorky mom that

0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:17.840
<v Speaker 2>thinks everything's inappropriate, so clearly I don't get to be

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.280
<v Speaker 2>in charge. It was my personal opinion that I didn't

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 2>find that to be family friendly either, and I have

0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.080
<v Speaker 2>questions about, you know, whether or not.

0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:28.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, you know what.

0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:31.640
<v Speaker 2>I just want to see everybody doing better and everyone

0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:34.560
<v Speaker 2>trying to protect the little innocent ears of children. If

0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:36.440
<v Speaker 2>you know kids are going to be watching, they're gonna

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 2>be in the audience, Like we can all do a

0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:41.080
<v Speaker 2>little bit better. The NFL can do a whole lot better,

0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:44.040
<v Speaker 2>like way better. Why haven't we done a Carrie Underwood

0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:47.880
<v Speaker 2>halftime show? She works with the NFL. She's an incredible

0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 2>live performer. She keeps it clean. Like, let's do like

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Carrie Underwood and like Chris Stapleton, or he did the

0:15:56.200 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 2>National Anthem and it was so good. It was so good,

0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:02.680
<v Speaker 2>So let's do a time show anyway. I'm just I

0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:04.280
<v Speaker 2>just think we can all do better, Like why does

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:05.560
<v Speaker 2>it always have to be provocative?

0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Why does it always have to be dirty? Why does

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 3>it always have to.

0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Have like because it works because it's defective.

0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I just think like if they did a really clean one,

0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:15.400
<v Speaker 2>everybody would like it.

0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Cold Play Coldplay was good.

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but everyone made fun of that choice, like, oh Coldplay.

0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think I was one of those people, but

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:23.120
<v Speaker 1>actually end up liking it.

0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:25.520
<v Speaker 3>It was really good. It was clean. I mean, I

0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:27.520
<v Speaker 3>thought that Bruno Mars one was good. I don't know. Anyway.

0:16:27.560 --> 0:16:29.640
<v Speaker 2>People were upset that they felt that I was judging

0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 2>kid Rock, and I'm not judging his salvation.

0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 3>I would never do that.

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Kid Rock could be a completely changed person, and I

0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 2>seriously pray to God that he is, because he'd be

0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.360
<v Speaker 2>very powerful, you know, or he is being the fact that.

0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:44.560
<v Speaker 1>You were questioning his authenticity in the moment as Parmy,

0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe we got people riled up, and all you were

0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:48.640
<v Speaker 1>saying just for the sake of clarification here like you

0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're not, you don't you have you don't have

0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>any real reason to doubt his authenticity with his current

0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:56.000
<v Speaker 1>day messaging. He does have a very checkered pass and

0:16:56.120 --> 0:16:59.120
<v Speaker 1>that is valid and relevant and something that should be

0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>taken in consideration. And these are the things that you

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:01.640
<v Speaker 1>referenced last week.

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Me as a parent to remain cautious. Would I want

0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:09.280
<v Speaker 2>him to hang out with Niveah? Probably not, based on

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:11.560
<v Speaker 2>past references to young girls and stuff.

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:12.240
<v Speaker 3>No, I wouldn't.

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, Yeah. The thing the thing that I found the

0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:17.120
<v Speaker 1>most troubling was what it is was that you brought

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.280
<v Speaker 1>up last week about was the lyrics.

0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh, the lyrics?

0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean he has lyrics in a song that's young.

0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:28.520
<v Speaker 3>Ladies, young ladies like a underage. Some call it statutory,

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:30.800
<v Speaker 3>but you know what it would be.

0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 1>For him, and not that it would be necessarily wise

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:33.800
<v Speaker 1>for him to do so, but to address some of

0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:34.439
<v Speaker 1>this stuff head.

0:17:34.320 --> 0:17:36.320
<v Speaker 3>On, like yeah, like yeah, that used to be me.

0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you know, like offer up just maybe what

0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:41.800
<v Speaker 1>his mindset was, and hey, that was me in the past.

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Not that you need to like explain yourself. Like I said,

0:17:43.720 --> 0:17:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not good. I'm not a pr person.

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:45.840
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I don't know.

0:17:45.960 --> 0:17:47.919
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it's better to just like let the past be

0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:49.760
<v Speaker 2>the past. But I mean those of us that grew

0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:53.119
<v Speaker 2>up with it are going to remember it. So yeah, no,

0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.640
<v Speaker 2>I hope that he's a completely changed person, and maybe

0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.320
<v Speaker 2>he is. And nobody's salvation is anyone else is to

0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:00.000
<v Speaker 2>judge us between you and your creator.

0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:01.840
<v Speaker 3>But when you say that you.

0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:05.159
<v Speaker 2>Can't judge anyone at any time, I think that for

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:09.600
<v Speaker 2>a Yeah, I just think that that's very disingenuous and

0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 2>kind of hypocritical, because everybody makes judgments every day. When

0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.560
<v Speaker 2>you go to a job interview, the person interviewing you.

0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Is judging you.

0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:20.159
<v Speaker 2>They're judging your past, or judging your education, They're judging

0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:22.560
<v Speaker 2>what other people have said about you. They're making a

0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.119
<v Speaker 2>judgment on whether or not to hire you. When you

0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:28.439
<v Speaker 2>interview a nanny for your children, you are judging that person.

0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:32.280
<v Speaker 2>It's an interview judgment. You're judging the way that they

0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:34.639
<v Speaker 2>make you feel. You're judging the answers that they have

0:18:34.720 --> 0:18:37.240
<v Speaker 2>to your questions. You're judging what people in the past

0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:40.280
<v Speaker 2>have said. When you're walking down the street at night

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 2>and you see somebody walking towards you and they look

0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 2>a little sketchy, like it's not a little old lady,

0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:48.240
<v Speaker 2>you will make a judgment on whether or not to

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.840
<v Speaker 2>cross the street based on that person's appearance alone. And

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:53.879
<v Speaker 2>if you don't make that, if you're like, nope, I

0:18:53.920 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 2>can't judge anyone, and you just keep walking and the

0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:58.439
<v Speaker 2>hair is on your neck, are standing up like cross

0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:00.760
<v Speaker 2>the street and you're like nope, can't judge anyone, and

0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 2>then they shank you prison style. You're gonna wish that

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:07.760
<v Speaker 2>you had listened to Jiminy Cricket, Like, we judge people

0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:15.960
<v Speaker 2>every day based on their actions, their words, mostly their actions,

0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes just the way that the way that they

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 2>make us feel.

0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:23.320
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes people just feel off.

0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:26.000
<v Speaker 2>And as parents, you have to judge people to know

0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.639
<v Speaker 2>who's safe and who's not around your family.

0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:29.480
<v Speaker 3>And if you're not.

0:19:29.480 --> 0:19:32.640
<v Speaker 2>Making judgments because you feel like you can't, then you're

0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:34.400
<v Speaker 2>not being a good or safe parent.

0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Are we talking about like an evaluation or an assessment.

0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Because when I think of the word judgment, like I said,

0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:40.840
<v Speaker 1>always think that it has some weights behind it. Yeah,

0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Like a judgment is something that is cast from somebody

0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:46.680
<v Speaker 1>with a means of authority, right, you know what I mean.

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 1>And I think biblically that's what we're referring to as well. Yeah,

0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:51.280
<v Speaker 1>but you to a form year own opinion to have

0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:53.880
<v Speaker 1>that discernment, exercise that discernment is not the same thing.

0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you can't say like that person's not safe. Like

0:19:58.240 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 2>if I came on here and I was like, I

0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.200
<v Speaker 2>don't leave Kid Rock and I don't think he's saved,

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:05.119
<v Speaker 2>and I think he's going to Hell, that's judging somebody's salvation. Ye.

0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Just still, there's no judgment. You're not changing anything, You're

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:10.560
<v Speaker 1>not altering his life moving forward. That's you're expressing an

0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:13.480
<v Speaker 1>opinion based on your own analysis and discernment. That's not

0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the same as judgment. That's what I mean. All Right, Guys,

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:18.040
<v Speaker 1>we've been telling you all about Angel Studios for quite

0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:20.680
<v Speaker 1>a while now, and that's because they're producing fantastic faith

0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 1>based films, documentaries, and children's programming. We've previously struggled to

0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:27.359
<v Speaker 1>find programming that aligns with our family's values and isn't

0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 1>completely corning because if we're all being honest with one another,

0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:32.680
<v Speaker 1>some of the faith based films can be just a

0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:35.280
<v Speaker 1>little cheesy and they aren't necessarily that entertaining.

0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I have to agree, but Angel is actually breaking

0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:41.040
<v Speaker 2>them mold by creating exceptional films and shows that are exciting, relatable,

0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:43.919
<v Speaker 2>and actually good, like really really good. They also have

0:20:44.040 --> 0:20:46.800
<v Speaker 2>some really great children's content like Young David, King of

0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Kings and the title Twins that kind of shows that

0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:51.159
<v Speaker 2>you can feel good about your children watching.

0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this week I was exploring some of the new

0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:55.240
<v Speaker 1>content that Angel's bringing us this year, including the already

0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:59.120
<v Speaker 1>in theaters very lighthearted comedy solo meal Young Washington, which

0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>is coming out in July for America's two hundred and

0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:03.880
<v Speaker 1>fiftieth anniversary. It looks excellent, And another one that I'm

0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:06.200
<v Speaker 1>so excited to watch with the kids is an animated

0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:08.919
<v Speaker 1>adaptation of Oril's Animal Farm, which is coming out in

0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:09.800
<v Speaker 1>just a couple of months.

0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:10.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:12.440
<v Speaker 2>So, if you're tired of the same old streaming platforms

<v Speaker 2>to angel dot com. Slash nWo has to become a

0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Premium Angel Guild member. I think that it just gets

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:45.399
<v Speaker 2>used out of context, and then everybody goes around judging

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.560
<v Speaker 2>people throughout their lives. That's how you know who's good

0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:48.720
<v Speaker 2>to have in your life and who's not good to

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:50.160
<v Speaker 2>have in your life. You make a judgment on whether

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:51.520
<v Speaker 2>or not you're going to date someone when you're on

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.080
<v Speaker 2>a date. You make a judgment on whether or not

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 2>you're going to have a second date with somebody. These

0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:58.480
<v Speaker 2>are judgments, so like you can't say, well, I can't

0:21:58.560 --> 0:22:00.440
<v Speaker 2>judge that person. And they totally gave me the ick

0:22:00.720 --> 0:22:05.040
<v Speaker 2>and I didn't really like that. They've you know, served

0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:06.600
<v Speaker 2>some time in prison. But he asked me on a

0:22:06.600 --> 0:22:08.119
<v Speaker 2>second date, and I shouldn't judge him, like.

0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 3>No, of course not. You shouldn't go on a second

0:22:10.320 --> 0:22:11.000
<v Speaker 3>date with that person.

0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:13.400
<v Speaker 1>So, if I'm hearing you right, you're doubling down. Basically,

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.640
<v Speaker 1>you were not ashamed you expressed.

0:22:15.920 --> 0:22:18.520
<v Speaker 2>I am saying that I think that that the verse

0:22:18.640 --> 0:22:22.840
<v Speaker 2>is used is cherry picked and used anytime that somebody

0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:24.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't like what you're saying.

0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying with with what it is that you've expressed

0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:28.359
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast episode last week that got you in

0:22:28.400 --> 0:22:29.119
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of trouble.

0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, I mean, I I stand by what I said.

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:37.560
<v Speaker 2>He wouldn't have been my first choice because I, like,

0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:41.639
<v Speaker 2>I really found the first song to be not family friendly, inappropriate,

0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:44.040
<v Speaker 2>and not necessary, and so I kind of wish that

0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:47.640
<v Speaker 2>he had made a different choice in that regard. And

0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, but I mean, I understand the symbolism. I

0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:52.280
<v Speaker 2>think the story was beautiful.

0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:55.439
<v Speaker 1>I just yeah, his messaging was great. The part of

0:22:55.440 --> 0:22:58.000
<v Speaker 1>this that really bothered me. And it is like when

0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:00.000
<v Speaker 1>you were referencing thisbody put like this was off brand

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.480
<v Speaker 1>for us. We don't come in here or do anything

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:06.520
<v Speaker 1>that we eventually post online with the mindset of like,

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:08.440
<v Speaker 1>oh is this on brand, Like, we're not those people.

0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:09.639
<v Speaker 1>I know that there are a lot of people that

0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:12.159
<v Speaker 1>operate online like that, we are not one of them.

0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Another thing that stood out to me that I felt

0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:16.960
<v Speaker 1>like I wanted to address is just the fact that, like, well,

0:23:17.000 --> 0:23:19.760
<v Speaker 1>you guys should have done more research before talking about

0:23:19.800 --> 0:23:21.879
<v Speaker 1>this subject. Do we always do a lot of research? No?

0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Do we do? Sometimes do we not do any research?

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Looking at myself in prett regular Yeah, it doesn't mean

0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:29.399
<v Speaker 1>that I can't come in here and also express my opinion.

0:23:29.440 --> 0:23:32.359
<v Speaker 1>This is not a news outlet. We are not a

0:23:32.440 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 1>legacy media source for all of you to come on

0:23:35.440 --> 0:23:38.719
<v Speaker 1>here and educate yourself. Sometimes we're just expressing our opinions.

0:23:38.760 --> 0:23:39.840
<v Speaker 1>We've said this before, like.

0:23:39.760 --> 0:23:42.800
<v Speaker 2>If something's going on in the news or that a

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:44.680
<v Speaker 2>lot of people are talking about it, sometimes we don't

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:46.560
<v Speaker 2>want to go on and listen to what everyone else

0:23:46.600 --> 0:23:48.080
<v Speaker 2>is saying about it and then parrot that.

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:50.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Sometimes it's done intentionally.

0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because we want to be more authentic and that

0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:57.040
<v Speaker 2>like we're not just repeating what everybody else is repeating,

0:23:57.080 --> 0:23:59.119
<v Speaker 2>Like there was definitely like a narrative around the whole thing.

0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think that's what other people it was like

0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:01.879
<v Speaker 1>I thought you guys were on this side, and so

0:24:01.880 --> 0:24:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you should have been parroting what everybody else.

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:07.320
<v Speaker 2>Also narrative, this is unexpected, like everybody celebrated this and

0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 2>you're poking holes.

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:11.000
<v Speaker 1>And I will say, as a result, does that mean

0:24:11.000 --> 0:24:12.360
<v Speaker 1>that you guys are going to be sometimes right when

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:14.040
<v Speaker 1>you say that we're dumb and we shouldn't speak about

0:24:14.040 --> 0:24:16.640
<v Speaker 1>certain things? One hundred percent. We're not coming in here

0:24:16.720 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 1>trying to be correct or right. We're just expressing our opinions.

0:24:19.960 --> 0:24:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I've said this before, I pointed this out.

0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like if you were at our house for a

0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:24.919
<v Speaker 2>barbecue and we're just talking about this stuff, this is

0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:25.800
<v Speaker 2>how we talk about it.

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:28.159
<v Speaker 3>You're like you're just talking with your friends and.

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:30.359
<v Speaker 1>Stuff that doesn't jive for anybody out there. As if

0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:32.119
<v Speaker 1>you were like, I understand it, I respect it, I

0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:35.120
<v Speaker 1>do appreciate the feedback like that feedback is always one

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:37.639
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent welcomed here, and I'm not I would never

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:39.600
<v Speaker 1>make the claim like, oh, we're right and anybody else

0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:41.040
<v Speaker 1>is wrong, or you guys are right and we were

0:24:41.040 --> 0:24:43.200
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent roight, Like I'm glad that you're standing

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:44.800
<v Speaker 1>up for what it is. That you believe in and

0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:46.720
<v Speaker 1>you're you're standing by what it is that you reference.

0:24:46.760 --> 0:24:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean, and I'm glad that people ask me

0:24:48.359 --> 0:24:51.200
<v Speaker 3>to clarify. But yeah, so to clarify, we hadn't read

0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:52.159
<v Speaker 3>the Bad Bunny lyrics.

0:24:52.200 --> 0:24:54.440
<v Speaker 2>They were worse, and we thought, apparently he didn't sing

0:24:54.480 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 2>the worst of parts, but the song is inappropriate. It

0:24:56.480 --> 0:24:58.399
<v Speaker 2>should not have been performed. I found the dancing to

0:24:58.440 --> 0:25:01.440
<v Speaker 2>be discussing. I found the choice to be completely pointless

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:04.280
<v Speaker 2>and a total just kind of up tours from the NFL.

0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:07.800
<v Speaker 3>So I didn't like that.

0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:11.360
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't meaning to defend Bad Money in any way,

0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 2>Like I really thought that was a garbage show. I

0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:18.000
<v Speaker 2>really liked the turning point one. I thought all of

0:25:18.040 --> 0:25:20.040
<v Speaker 2>it was great. I thought all of the performers were

0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:22.919
<v Speaker 2>really wonderful. I just didn't like that one little portion

0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:25.960
<v Speaker 2>that I thought could have been nixed. Like if it

0:25:26.000 --> 0:25:28.520
<v Speaker 2>were up to me, I would have been like, eh, Richie,

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:32.040
<v Speaker 2>could we maybe like that a little early, like, maybe

0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 2>don't perform the full verse one because there's some you know,

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:37.280
<v Speaker 2>children that are gonna be listening to this as a

0:25:37.320 --> 0:25:41.840
<v Speaker 2>safe alternative, and it's in English, and there's some references

0:25:41.880 --> 0:25:43.000
<v Speaker 2>to some shady characters.

0:25:43.000 --> 0:25:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there you go. So you guys make sense of

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 1>our mindset coming in here last week and saying what

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:48.600
<v Speaker 1>we said.

0:25:48.680 --> 0:25:50.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, maybe that's just gonna make people more mad,

0:25:50.800 --> 0:25:51.920
<v Speaker 3>so bed.

0:25:52.200 --> 0:25:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, moving on, staying on the topic of mostly kind

0:25:55.680 --> 0:26:00.399
<v Speaker 1>of catching a lot of flak this week, reluctantly sold

0:26:00.480 --> 0:26:02.520
<v Speaker 1>our horse, LExEN. And for those of you who have

0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 1>been watching Good Simple Living for quite a long time,

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:07.000
<v Speaker 1>know that he was our horse. You said three years

0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 1>on the video. I think it's been more than three years,

0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 1>though it has.

0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 2>I think it was, yeah, four years in September, maybe

0:26:14.160 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 2>four years, so it's been like three and a half.

0:26:16.640 --> 0:26:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Regardless, it's something that we were bummed to have to do.

0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:22.600
<v Speaker 1>We tried to lay it out for everybody out there

0:26:22.600 --> 0:26:24.680
<v Speaker 1>ahead of time. But Melissa in the comments once again

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:27.040
<v Speaker 1>like people were just giving mama like it's been a

0:26:27.080 --> 0:26:29.760
<v Speaker 1>tough week from a tough week. Yeah, try to be

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:31.920
<v Speaker 1>very receptive to everything. Like I just mentioned a second ago,

0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:35.080
<v Speaker 1>that everybody has to say with regards to anything to

0:26:35.080 --> 0:26:37.560
<v Speaker 1>put out there, I appreciate your input, appreciate you watching.

0:26:38.160 --> 0:26:40.800
<v Speaker 1>And we tried to lay the foundational groundwork for like, hey,

0:26:40.920 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>we're making plans to sell the horse here. But I

0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:46.080
<v Speaker 1>think seeing lex In back in the trailer.

0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 3>Showed his eyes just look sad. That's just a look

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 3>on his face. His eyes always look like that.

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>No, but we were both really sad about it. And

0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:55.400
<v Speaker 1>but then people, I think a lot of horse people,

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:56.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe non horse.

0:26:56.119 --> 0:26:59.000
<v Speaker 3>People, non horse people, you shouldn't.

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:02.080
<v Speaker 1>You shouldn't have another animal. How dare you get rid

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>of that horse? That poor horse. The worst thing that

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:07.199
<v Speaker 1>ever happened to that horse was meeting you.

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:11.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean no, I don't think so. He was

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:12.960
<v Speaker 3>on the reds when I found him.

0:27:13.040 --> 0:27:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Explain yourself.

0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:17.680
<v Speaker 2>No, actually he was on the farm at Root sixty six,

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:19.080
<v Speaker 2>so he was fine over there. But he would have

0:27:19.119 --> 0:27:20.480
<v Speaker 2>been sold to who knows, you know.

0:27:20.840 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 5>But anyway, so with LExEN as a as a young rider,

0:27:28.400 --> 0:27:30.320
<v Speaker 5>there was not a horse that I wouldn't ride, Like,

0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:31.879
<v Speaker 5>I'm not afraid of riding.

0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Like Jeremy seeing me ride and it made him really

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:36.280
<v Speaker 2>nervous because he's like, Okay, you look care like you're

0:27:36.400 --> 0:27:38.280
<v Speaker 2>just like running down the stretch.

0:27:38.400 --> 0:27:40.840
<v Speaker 1>You would cut that one corner. Yeah, I'm not a

0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:45.359
<v Speaker 1>horse guy. Melissa is very talented with with riding, and

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:48.439
<v Speaker 1>she would just haul chi booty and cut these corns on,

0:27:48.520 --> 0:27:49.640
<v Speaker 1>like please don't follow.

0:27:49.880 --> 0:27:52.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've done barrels and things like that. So like,

0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:54.600
<v Speaker 2>my balance on a horse is really good. I feel

0:27:54.600 --> 0:27:57.280
<v Speaker 2>really confident of horse changes directions that I can. You know,

0:27:57.359 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm I have a you know, I'm sticky, so I can.

0:28:01.160 --> 0:28:05.560
<v Speaker 2>But I'm not afraid of LExEN. But I know that

0:28:05.640 --> 0:28:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Lexin is capable of hurting somebody and it doesn't take much.

0:28:10.280 --> 0:28:10.919
<v Speaker 1>She was erratic.

0:28:11.119 --> 0:28:13.520
<v Speaker 2>He was very erratic, and he was very spooky, and

0:28:13.880 --> 0:28:16.800
<v Speaker 2>so that was a problem for me, and I didn't

0:28:16.840 --> 0:28:18.240
<v Speaker 2>know that about him when I got him. And people

0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:19.879
<v Speaker 2>are like, you can't just sell a horse that doesn't

0:28:19.880 --> 0:28:21.880
<v Speaker 2>work for you. You have to make it work. No,

0:28:22.000 --> 0:28:24.000
<v Speaker 2>you don't. You don't have to make it work. And

0:28:24.040 --> 0:28:25.880
<v Speaker 2>if you force it and you try to make something

0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:27.520
<v Speaker 2>a fit, that isn't a fit.

0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:30.320
<v Speaker 3>This is how people get killed or paralyzed.

0:28:30.680 --> 0:28:34.199
<v Speaker 2>And that horse bucked off my cousin and broke his

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:37.080
<v Speaker 2>back and his ribs. Now, he's never bucked with me,

0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:39.240
<v Speaker 2>but when I saw that, I knew that he was

0:28:39.280 --> 0:28:40.280
<v Speaker 2>then capable of it.

0:28:41.000 --> 0:28:43.280
<v Speaker 1>And sorry, Matty about that.

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know that that horse was capable of that,

0:28:47.160 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 2>and that was two years into owning him. We sent

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:53.520
<v Speaker 2>him to trainers, We hired people, we tried, and what

0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 2>every trainer told us at the end was this is

0:28:56.080 --> 0:28:58.760
<v Speaker 2>not a family horse. And the last trainer had him

0:28:58.800 --> 0:29:01.720
<v Speaker 2>for two months, bunch of money into them, and she

0:29:01.920 --> 0:29:04.760
<v Speaker 2>was like, you need to sell him. He's not ever

0:29:04.960 --> 0:29:06.400
<v Speaker 2>going to be a family I don't like.

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Hearing that though, And they'll just take thousand excused, like yeah.

0:29:08.920 --> 0:29:10.800
<v Speaker 1>The mentality seemed to be like, hey, you took this

0:29:10.920 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 1>horse all like, he's not your responsibility for life.

0:29:14.320 --> 0:29:16.080
<v Speaker 2>But I feel like because they're like, oh, you know,

0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:18.200
<v Speaker 2>I adopt animals and I would never move an animal.

0:29:18.240 --> 0:29:20.960
<v Speaker 2>I said, well, are you a parent? And no, the

0:29:21.000 --> 0:29:23.040
<v Speaker 2>dogs are my Okay, you're not a parent.

0:29:23.480 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, not all animals are the same, right.

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Like if you're talking at a cat, now, if you're

0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:29.760
<v Speaker 2>talking about a dog, I said, well, would you keep

0:29:29.760 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 2>a dog if you found out that it bites?

0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:33.160
<v Speaker 3>I know my dogs don't bite.

0:29:33.760 --> 0:29:36.560
<v Speaker 2>No dogs are animals, And I know people personally that

0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:38.280
<v Speaker 2>have had dogs for three and four years that all

0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:39.240
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden bit somebody.

0:29:39.360 --> 0:29:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Loodle's not biting anywhere.

0:29:40.600 --> 0:29:42.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean he's a Golden retriever. This is kind of

0:29:42.640 --> 0:29:46.320
<v Speaker 2>breed specific. But let's say you adopt pit bulls. I'm

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 2>going to pick on that breed for a second.

0:29:47.800 --> 0:29:50.239
<v Speaker 1>Because before we even go there, I've owned three pit

0:29:50.360 --> 0:29:51.120
<v Speaker 1>boles in my life.

0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 3>I've owned two, just so we're on the stackage here.

0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 2>One was a nightmare. One was very docile. Yeah, but

0:29:57.680 --> 0:29:58.400
<v Speaker 2>was he capable?

0:29:58.480 --> 0:29:58.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:29:59.080 --> 0:30:02.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's breed specific. So let's say that you

0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:05.520
<v Speaker 2>adopt pipples. They're very, very sweet. You have a child

0:30:05.680 --> 0:30:08.440
<v Speaker 2>two years in the child pulls on in the ear

0:30:08.520 --> 0:30:10.400
<v Speaker 2>or something like a baby would do like Micah has

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:13.120
<v Speaker 2>no you know, he would pull and roll all over

0:30:13.120 --> 0:30:15.560
<v Speaker 2>a dog he doesn't have any pole hair things, and

0:30:15.560 --> 0:30:19.040
<v Speaker 2>the dog gets annoyed and bites. Do you then feel

0:30:19.040 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 2>obligated to keep that dog over the safety of your child.

0:30:23.480 --> 0:30:25.640
<v Speaker 2>If you do, you have no business being a parent.

0:30:26.080 --> 0:30:28.080
<v Speaker 2>And I feel the same way with horses, only horses

0:30:28.120 --> 0:30:31.360
<v Speaker 2>are bigger and they're more capable of destruction and hurting

0:30:31.400 --> 0:30:32.280
<v Speaker 2>and killing and maiming.

0:30:32.360 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 1>It's a bad analogy in a sense though, because Lexin

0:30:34.200 --> 0:30:37.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't have the personality and demeanor of like uh of,

0:30:37.840 --> 0:30:42.360
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't violent. I mean, I think I suppose all

0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:44.600
<v Speaker 1>of them are capable, because there's thousand pound animals, but.

0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:46.760
<v Speaker 3>The horses are capable. But there's good fits and bad fit.

0:30:46.920 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Was gonna say it was just simply a compatibility issue

0:30:49.680 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 1>between him and also he was a great horse. I

0:30:51.760 --> 0:30:53.840
<v Speaker 1>missed him tremendously like that. When he was driving off,

0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:55.560
<v Speaker 1>I was legitimately bummed. Yeah, so was I.

0:30:56.400 --> 0:30:58.120
<v Speaker 3>I thought Lexon was going to be my forever horse.

0:30:58.320 --> 0:30:58.560
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:30:58.680 --> 0:30:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Picked him out. I loved him.

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:03.560
<v Speaker 2>His grand manners were amazing him and I actually rode

0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:08.360
<v Speaker 2>really well together. But yeah, it sucks just knowing that

0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:11.760
<v Speaker 2>he's capable, and more than capable because he's very spooky,

0:31:11.960 --> 0:31:14.920
<v Speaker 2>so he would just fly off whenever, like you never

0:31:15.000 --> 0:31:17.200
<v Speaker 2>knew when something was going to set Lexon off. And

0:31:17.240 --> 0:31:18.840
<v Speaker 2>I thought, if I wasn't paying attention or I had

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:20.920
<v Speaker 2>my feet out of the stirrups, or I was you know,

0:31:21.040 --> 0:31:26.000
<v Speaker 2>something happened and I got you know, paralyzed, or I

0:31:26.040 --> 0:31:30.640
<v Speaker 2>broke something or worse, it would just be so irresponsible.

0:31:30.680 --> 0:31:32.360
<v Speaker 2>And then to be able to look back and say,

0:31:33.120 --> 0:31:35.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, I always kind of knew this about this horse.

0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:36.240
<v Speaker 3>I knew he was a risk.

0:31:36.600 --> 0:31:39.360
<v Speaker 2>As a parent, I think Anybody who's ever been a

0:31:39.400 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 2>parent knows that your worst fear is something happening to

0:31:43.080 --> 0:31:46.760
<v Speaker 2>your children, but your next worst fear is something happening

0:31:46.800 --> 0:31:51.680
<v Speaker 2>to you and leaving your children, because like I know,

0:31:51.760 --> 0:31:54.400
<v Speaker 2>that's like a huge fear of mine, because then it's like, then,

0:31:54.480 --> 0:31:58.360
<v Speaker 2>what who's going to be their mom? Are they going

0:31:58.440 --> 0:32:01.120
<v Speaker 2>to have a mom? Are is she going to be

0:32:01.200 --> 0:32:03.520
<v Speaker 2>mean to them? Are they going to get what they need?

0:32:03.640 --> 0:32:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Is there going to be this gaping hole in their lives?

0:32:05.720 --> 0:32:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Like I fear leaving my children almost more than anything else.

0:32:10.840 --> 0:32:11.960
<v Speaker 3>Like it's this nagging fear.

0:32:11.960 --> 0:32:13.720
<v Speaker 2>And I remember my mom telling me that when I

0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:15.960
<v Speaker 2>was a kid, and when I became eighteen, she's like,

0:32:16.080 --> 0:32:18.440
<v Speaker 2>I feel sad that you guys aren't little anymore, but

0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:22.000
<v Speaker 2>I feel relief because every day I worried about leaving

0:32:22.040 --> 0:32:25.560
<v Speaker 2>you and having something happen. And so I have that

0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:27.600
<v Speaker 2>fear too. And you can say it's an irrational fear,

0:32:27.600 --> 0:32:28.720
<v Speaker 2>but I think every parent has it.

0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:31.240
<v Speaker 1>I definitely have it the entire time. I'm also a

0:32:31.240 --> 0:32:33.800
<v Speaker 1>cough leaving the house every day. It was a tremendous

0:32:33.800 --> 0:32:34.280
<v Speaker 1>fear of mind.

0:32:34.640 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So, and I know that, yes, you can step

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:38.760
<v Speaker 2>off a curve and you can get smacked by a

0:32:38.800 --> 0:32:41.440
<v Speaker 2>bus right or you can get sick and that's outside

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:46.840
<v Speaker 2>of your control. But you can minimize risk. And I

0:32:46.880 --> 0:32:50.280
<v Speaker 2>think as parents it's smart to minimize risk to yourself

0:32:51.000 --> 0:32:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and to your children. I mean, there's so many men

0:32:53.960 --> 0:32:55.600
<v Speaker 2>that are like as soon as I became a dad,

0:32:55.640 --> 0:32:58.600
<v Speaker 2>when my baby was born, I sold my motorcycle, like

0:32:58.680 --> 0:33:01.240
<v Speaker 2>you hear that all the time. Or I sold my

0:33:01.320 --> 0:33:03.360
<v Speaker 2>little car, my little race car that I always thought

0:33:03.400 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 2>I would have.

0:33:04.240 --> 0:33:06.840
<v Speaker 1>That le is dangerous again, I'm trying to pound home that. Yeah,

0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:09.440
<v Speaker 1>it just was. It became a compatibility thing, Like we're

0:33:09.440 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>getting older. Sorry mama, but riding at forty two is

0:33:12.560 --> 0:33:13.920
<v Speaker 1>not the same as riding at sixteen.

0:33:14.040 --> 0:33:15.960
<v Speaker 3>You don't bounce like you don't bounce like.

0:33:15.960 --> 0:33:17.960
<v Speaker 1>You used to. You don't have the same balance that

0:33:18.000 --> 0:33:21.120
<v Speaker 1>you once did, and the situation is just different. We've

0:33:21.160 --> 0:33:24.400
<v Speaker 1>got five kids, four kids that were still really responsible

0:33:24.400 --> 0:33:27.200
<v Speaker 1>for caring for day to day and it's just it

0:33:27.240 --> 0:33:30.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't it didn't suit our life. Currently with word is

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 1>that we find ourselves. I want to work too. We

0:33:31.920 --> 0:33:33.760
<v Speaker 1>want to get another horse, because it's still a dream

0:33:33.840 --> 0:33:36.280
<v Speaker 1>of Melissa and I to be able to ride around here,

0:33:36.360 --> 0:33:39.160
<v Speaker 1>and you know, so we need to find another like Super.

0:33:39.720 --> 0:33:40.800
<v Speaker 3>We need another Bruse.

0:33:40.960 --> 0:33:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we need another Blue, something that like we can

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:45.720
<v Speaker 1>both confidently hop on and yep, they're just very sound

0:33:45.760 --> 0:33:46.959
<v Speaker 1>and won't take off on anyone.

0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:49.000
<v Speaker 2>I need the horses that I know when the kids say,

0:33:49.000 --> 0:33:50.440
<v Speaker 2>can we go out and ride? I don't have to

0:33:50.480 --> 0:33:53.400
<v Speaker 2>go out there and wear them out or ride them

0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:54.920
<v Speaker 2>first or anything. I want the kids to be able

0:33:54.960 --> 0:33:56.680
<v Speaker 2>to go out there and be confident and be safe

0:33:56.680 --> 0:33:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and be able to jump on bare back and ride around.

0:33:59.360 --> 0:34:02.000
<v Speaker 2>And every horse is capable of being a horse, but

0:34:02.680 --> 0:34:05.520
<v Speaker 2>there are some that are far less Like I really

0:34:06.080 --> 0:34:08.680
<v Speaker 2>really would be surprised if Blue did anything stupid because

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:09.160
<v Speaker 2>he never has.

0:34:09.320 --> 0:34:10.760
<v Speaker 1>So you don't have to. You shouldn't have to explain

0:34:10.800 --> 0:34:12.520
<v Speaker 1>yourself to anybody. But so much of the feedback we

0:34:12.520 --> 0:34:15.279
<v Speaker 1>got was negative and kind of targeted at you. But

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:17.120
<v Speaker 1>this is this is something that and people are just

0:34:17.120 --> 0:34:19.120
<v Speaker 1>going to like, you're not going to convince anybody to

0:34:19.160 --> 0:34:22.279
<v Speaker 1>just say that you're trying to justify it. But it's

0:34:22.680 --> 0:34:25.440
<v Speaker 1>very common in like the horse community to because again,

0:34:25.560 --> 0:34:28.800
<v Speaker 1>the compatibility is such a major factor when when finding

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:29.880
<v Speaker 1>and committee to a work.

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:32.440
<v Speaker 2>You can't tell. Like when you go test ride a horse,

0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:34.920
<v Speaker 2>you can't tell. They can be so great in the

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:36.680
<v Speaker 2>arena that you're riding them in, and then you get

0:34:36.680 --> 0:34:39.319
<v Speaker 2>them back to your house and they're still great, and

0:34:39.360 --> 0:34:41.640
<v Speaker 2>then their true colors start to show over the course

0:34:41.680 --> 0:34:44.160
<v Speaker 2>of like six months or even a year, like little

0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:46.239
<v Speaker 2>little quirks, little things like.

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:47.239
<v Speaker 3>That you didn't know set them off.

0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Like dating somebody, Yeah, exactly, can't tell from a first day.

0:34:50.920 --> 0:34:53.799
<v Speaker 2>You can't like things that you didn't know scared them

0:34:53.840 --> 0:34:57.279
<v Speaker 2>like you could. Everything's been fine. They've been desensitized in

0:34:57.320 --> 0:35:00.200
<v Speaker 2>so many ways. Yeah, yeah, or a snake.

0:35:00.120 --> 0:35:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Was across the path, or not the horse, but anyway.

0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:05.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like with Debbie, she was really calm, but

0:35:05.400 --> 0:35:07.200
<v Speaker 2>like one day I dropped my cell phone and she

0:35:07.600 --> 0:35:12.600
<v Speaker 2>reared up, slipped over, pulled the whole round pen onto her.

0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:15.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was insane because I dropped my phone.

0:35:15.600 --> 0:35:18.680
<v Speaker 1>I was crazy, Like where did that come from? The

0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:20.959
<v Speaker 1>pony we had? I think a lot of this also

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:22.440
<v Speaker 1>stems from the fact that we have gotten rid of

0:35:22.440 --> 0:35:24.000
<v Speaker 1>We got rid of Debbie, we got rid of Cota,

0:35:24.040 --> 0:35:26.120
<v Speaker 1>and now you're gonna ready to getting Redlex.

0:35:26.360 --> 0:35:28.200
<v Speaker 3>It's hard to find a good fit horse.

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:32.400
<v Speaker 2>Horses have on average like ten owners, sometimes up to

0:35:32.440 --> 0:35:35.239
<v Speaker 2>twenty owners because horses are horsey, and you have to

0:35:35.239 --> 0:35:38.200
<v Speaker 2>find the right fit of horse and person and you

0:35:38.239 --> 0:35:40.799
<v Speaker 2>can't force it. And so sometimes you have a horse

0:35:40.800 --> 0:35:42.680
<v Speaker 2>for six months and you're like, this isn't a good fit.

0:35:43.080 --> 0:35:47.120
<v Speaker 2>You have to be open to that, otherwise you're gonna

0:35:47.120 --> 0:35:49.600
<v Speaker 2>get stuck with a horse that is going to hurt

0:35:49.600 --> 0:35:51.040
<v Speaker 2>you or just you're not going to enjoy.

0:35:51.680 --> 0:35:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Horses are horsey, Okay, yeah, for future reference.

0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Yes, horses are horsey.

0:35:57.280 --> 0:35:59.399
<v Speaker 2>So I mean ages are No, they're animals, and they're

0:35:59.400 --> 0:36:02.120
<v Speaker 2>big animals. So I don't even know if the next

0:36:02.160 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 2>one will be right for Again, it is.

0:36:03.480 --> 0:36:06.919
<v Speaker 1>What it is. We are shopping for a replacement horse.

0:36:06.960 --> 0:36:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure those people that are giving Melissa a hard

0:36:08.960 --> 0:36:10.640
<v Speaker 1>time we're not happy about hearing that, but it is

0:36:10.680 --> 0:36:13.840
<v Speaker 1>what it is. Never going to satisfy or appease everybody

0:36:13.880 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 1>out there, But that's that's where we stand, and that's

0:36:16.239 --> 0:36:18.040
<v Speaker 1>the explanation for it. Again, not that you should have

0:36:18.080 --> 0:36:21.480
<v Speaker 1>to explain yourself. This isn't justification. It's just where we

0:36:21.520 --> 0:36:22.799
<v Speaker 1>are in life. It's part of the reason that we're

0:36:22.840 --> 0:36:25.040
<v Speaker 1>downsizing period. It's just you know, Melissa and are getting older,

0:36:25.080 --> 0:36:27.680
<v Speaker 1>the older set of kids are getting older, and we

0:36:27.760 --> 0:36:30.879
<v Speaker 1>might get back into like cheap one day, or having

0:36:30.960 --> 0:36:33.560
<v Speaker 1>backyard chickens again one day. These are still things that

0:36:33.560 --> 0:36:36.800
<v Speaker 1>we're incredibly passionate about. But between trying to like homeschool

0:36:36.840 --> 0:36:38.880
<v Speaker 1>and raise our children here at home and running our

0:36:38.880 --> 0:36:41.320
<v Speaker 1>own business and just all the work that is associated

0:36:41.360 --> 0:36:43.600
<v Speaker 1>with that and trying to make sure that Melissa and

0:36:43.600 --> 0:36:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I are in a good place, we have so much

0:36:45.160 --> 0:36:46.799
<v Speaker 1>on our plate as it stands, and if that means

0:36:46.800 --> 0:36:49.680
<v Speaker 1>that chickens need to go for the time being, the

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:50.640
<v Speaker 1>chickens are going to be gone.

0:36:50.760 --> 0:36:52.560
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, yeah, we kind of like looked around

0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:54.400
<v Speaker 2>and we did an assessment, and we're like, what is

0:36:54.440 --> 0:36:56.360
<v Speaker 2>it that we can do to simplify our lives to

0:36:56.400 --> 0:36:58.239
<v Speaker 2>be able to because we want to focus a lot

0:36:58.239 --> 0:37:00.960
<v Speaker 2>on food production, and that takes so much time and diligence,

0:37:01.360 --> 0:37:05.040
<v Speaker 2>and since we moved here, our garden has suffered so significantly,

0:37:05.120 --> 0:37:07.759
<v Speaker 2>Like we haven't been good to gardeners because we've been

0:37:07.800 --> 0:37:09.839
<v Speaker 2>so busy with this and this and this and this

0:37:09.920 --> 0:37:11.880
<v Speaker 2>and this and this and this, and so it's like,

0:37:11.920 --> 0:37:13.799
<v Speaker 2>if we can look around and we can nix a

0:37:13.840 --> 0:37:16.840
<v Speaker 2>few things. We can actually have time to focus on

0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:18.319
<v Speaker 2>what we really want to focus on.

0:37:18.960 --> 0:37:21.120
<v Speaker 1>It's been so frustrating for me because we were like

0:37:21.360 --> 0:37:23.200
<v Speaker 1>really good gardeners at one point.

0:37:23.080 --> 0:37:25.759
<v Speaker 3>We were we love it so much, food about it.

0:37:25.800 --> 0:37:27.239
<v Speaker 1>I love it, but just feeling like you don't have

0:37:27.239 --> 0:37:28.640
<v Speaker 1>the time to like do everything it is that you

0:37:28.680 --> 0:37:31.440
<v Speaker 1>want to do like it. And for me, it has

0:37:31.520 --> 0:37:33.000
<v Speaker 1>primarily to do with the fact that the kids are

0:37:33.000 --> 0:37:35.120
<v Speaker 1>getting older, Like I'd rather go take my boys to

0:37:35.160 --> 0:37:36.800
<v Speaker 1>go do something like I want to go hiking the

0:37:36.840 --> 0:37:38.759
<v Speaker 1>spring and summer whole lunch com on and I have

0:37:38.840 --> 0:37:40.560
<v Speaker 1>been running and that's just something that I do with

0:37:40.640 --> 0:37:42.239
<v Speaker 1>him as a means of like father son bonding. I

0:37:42.239 --> 0:37:45.960
<v Speaker 1>don't necessarily want to run getting older, like it hurts, Yeah,

0:37:45.400 --> 0:37:47.840
<v Speaker 1>but it's something that we can do together. And you know,

0:37:47.840 --> 0:37:50.239
<v Speaker 1>when I'm committed to doing things like that and making

0:37:50.239 --> 0:37:52.279
<v Speaker 1>that the priority, things like gardening are going to fall

0:37:52.280 --> 0:37:54.880
<v Speaker 1>to the wayside. So while it does frustrate me, I'm

0:37:54.920 --> 0:37:56.560
<v Speaker 1>okay with it. It's just where we are currently.

0:37:56.800 --> 0:37:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:37:57.320 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so we all the chickens go.

0:37:58.840 --> 0:38:01.680
<v Speaker 2>We gave the sheep to our friends, which I mean

0:38:01.680 --> 0:38:04.719
<v Speaker 2>they just live right down the road, and they are

0:38:04.760 --> 0:38:08.080
<v Speaker 2>not missing us. They're being so spoiled. They dressed up

0:38:08.080 --> 0:38:08.920
<v Speaker 2>for Valentine's Day and.

0:38:08.880 --> 0:38:11.200
<v Speaker 1>It's really cool that we're friends with these people too.

0:38:11.320 --> 0:38:12.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah we get to see them on a regular braces.

0:38:12.880 --> 0:38:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah we get to see the sheep all the time anyway.

0:38:14.600 --> 0:38:16.839
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, they're doing awesome. So, I mean, we always

0:38:16.880 --> 0:38:19.520
<v Speaker 2>make sure that our animals go to good places when

0:38:19.560 --> 0:38:21.360
<v Speaker 2>we do need to move them along.

0:38:21.840 --> 0:38:24.480
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, it's just we're in a different season now.

0:38:24.520 --> 0:38:26.520
<v Speaker 2>And when our kids were all little and we had

0:38:26.600 --> 0:38:31.080
<v Speaker 2>like this adorable little farm, and I didn't do any

0:38:31.120 --> 0:38:34.360
<v Speaker 2>of this, you know, like I wasn't working, and homeschool

0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:36.960
<v Speaker 2>is so much simpler when everyone was in elementary school,

0:38:37.000 --> 0:38:40.040
<v Speaker 2>and now it's harder now, and there's more.

0:38:40.360 --> 0:38:41.959
<v Speaker 1>It's the irony of so many of us that broke

0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:44.480
<v Speaker 1>into this online space doing things like this, you know,

0:38:44.520 --> 0:38:47.359
<v Speaker 1>like hobby farming and home setting is at for those

0:38:47.400 --> 0:38:49.279
<v Speaker 1>of us to where you know, we've taken it to

0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:51.279
<v Speaker 1>such an extent that it's become like a full time job.

0:38:51.400 --> 0:38:53.800
<v Speaker 1>It really has gotten in the way and it inhibited,

0:38:53.840 --> 0:38:56.400
<v Speaker 1>ironically enough, our ability to do all of that farming

0:38:56.560 --> 0:39:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and homesteading that so many of us originally desired for ourselves. Yeah,

0:39:00.760 --> 0:39:02.840
<v Speaker 1>it's not thoselves I see it in a lot of people.

0:39:03.080 --> 0:39:04.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, for sure.

0:39:04.080 --> 0:39:05.960
<v Speaker 2>And I mean when we moved out here, like, yes,

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:09.200
<v Speaker 2>we were trying to homestead and be self sustaining, but

0:39:09.239 --> 0:39:11.040
<v Speaker 2>we were also trying to build a house and raise

0:39:11.040 --> 0:39:13.120
<v Speaker 2>a family, and so yeah, there's just a lot of

0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:14.719
<v Speaker 2>things that kind of fellow the wayside that we want

0:39:14.760 --> 0:39:15.600
<v Speaker 2>to get back now.

0:39:15.880 --> 0:39:17.560
<v Speaker 3>And so it's just a matter of priority.

0:39:18.120 --> 0:39:21.760
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I mean with a horse, like I didn't

0:39:21.800 --> 0:39:23.439
<v Speaker 2>have every day to go out there and train him.

0:39:23.600 --> 0:39:25.839
<v Speaker 2>I mean he needed an hour day and I didn't

0:39:25.880 --> 0:39:28.640
<v Speaker 2>have it. So unfortunately he had to go somewhere where

0:39:28.640 --> 0:39:31.000
<v Speaker 2>they did have the time to do that. And so yeah,

0:39:31.120 --> 0:39:33.160
<v Speaker 2>we'll find something old that doesn't need that.

0:39:33.719 --> 0:39:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay. Final topic for today's episode of the podcast is

0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:38.759
<v Speaker 1>something that Melissa brought to my attention, something that was

0:39:38.960 --> 0:39:40.399
<v Speaker 1>pretty disturbing. Yeah.

0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:42.320
<v Speaker 3>First you didn't think it was a big deal until

0:39:42.320 --> 0:39:43.360
<v Speaker 3>you started looking.

0:39:43.080 --> 0:39:45.160
<v Speaker 1>At it didn't sound real to me. Let's jump in

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:47.680
<v Speaker 1>showing we have said this repeatedly, but we were living

0:39:47.719 --> 0:39:50.960
<v Speaker 1>in unprecedented times, seeing so many attacks against godly values

0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:53.160
<v Speaker 1>and the family, So it's more important than ever that

0:39:53.280 --> 0:39:55.080
<v Speaker 1>we have a plan to help our kids internalize what

0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:57.120
<v Speaker 1>they believe and actually own it for themselves.

0:39:57.239 --> 0:39:58.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's why we'd love what our friends over

<v Speaker 2>best you can, you raised your family and maybe you

<v Speaker 2>even built something that you can leave behind for those

0:41:00.400 --> 0:41:02.960
<v Speaker 2>that you love. But the truth is sometimes we are

0:41:03.040 --> 0:41:05.160
<v Speaker 2>so busy building that we don't take the time to

0:41:05.239 --> 0:41:07.880

<v Speaker 1>not a burden.

0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, unfortunately, many of us have seen the results of

0:41:21.640 --> 0:41:25.040
<v Speaker 2>families fighting lengthy probate and costly attorneys when estates are

0:41:25.080 --> 0:41:27.880
<v Speaker 2>not clearly and legally planned out using a trust, and

0:41:27.920 --> 0:41:29.600

0:42:08.239 --> 0:42:11.000
<v Speaker 1>me about all of this crazy stuff that is happening

0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:13.080
<v Speaker 1>with Frieda who I brought up before. If you remember

0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:14.759
<v Speaker 1>the breast milk ice cream, that is the brand we

0:42:14.760 --> 0:42:16.480
<v Speaker 1>were talking about. But what's going on with these guys?

0:42:16.560 --> 0:42:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so this is all the rage right now. There's

0:42:19.000 --> 0:42:21.600
<v Speaker 2>a brand called Freedom Mom. Now, you guys might remember

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:26.920
<v Speaker 2>there was this not sucker for babies and you foot

0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:29.920
<v Speaker 2>the end and the baby's nose when they had a cold,

0:42:30.000 --> 0:42:32.440
<v Speaker 2>and then there was a straw and then you sucked

0:42:32.520 --> 0:42:34.840
<v Speaker 2>on the end and you would watch the snot go

0:42:34.920 --> 0:42:36.759
<v Speaker 2>up the straw and you would stop before I get

0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:43.520
<v Speaker 2>to your mouth. Hopefully you never wanted to go gas. Yes, yeah,

0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 2>So that was their first product and it was called

0:42:45.600 --> 0:42:46.440
<v Speaker 2>like freedom nose.

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:49.480
<v Speaker 3>I believe it was their first product. And then she

0:42:50.080 --> 0:42:50.919
<v Speaker 3>the owner.

0:42:50.800 --> 0:42:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Which is a mother of four and a businesswoman, she

0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:57.640
<v Speaker 2>greatly expanded into there's Freedom mom, and there's freeda baby.

0:42:57.520 --> 0:43:01.680
<v Speaker 1>And Chelsea her shorn Yes, okay, CEO.

0:43:02.120 --> 0:43:05.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she's the CEO. She is a mom.

0:43:05.280 --> 0:43:09.319
<v Speaker 2>Now the mistake I think she made was kind of

0:43:09.320 --> 0:43:11.160
<v Speaker 2>the scrub Daddy mistake.

0:43:11.239 --> 0:43:12.520
<v Speaker 3>Now it worked for scrub Daddy.

0:43:12.640 --> 0:43:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Scrub Daddy's great. What scrub Daddy do scrub Daddy for me?

0:43:15.600 --> 0:43:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Grub Daddy decided to hire a bunch of gen zers

0:43:20.320 --> 0:43:24.279
<v Speaker 2>for their ad campaign marketing team. It became I mean,

0:43:24.280 --> 0:43:30.680
<v Speaker 2>this is like softcore sometimes even more on their Instagram page.

0:43:30.800 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Their marketing is so dirty.

0:43:32.680 --> 0:43:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Scrub Daddy.

0:43:33.400 --> 0:43:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, you didn't know that.

0:43:35.120 --> 0:43:36.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm so out of the loop on these things. You

0:43:36.800 --> 0:43:39.600
<v Speaker 1>bring this stuff up. And so here's how our day

0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:43.040
<v Speaker 1>to day life goes in the house. There it comes downstairs.

0:43:43.120 --> 0:43:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I was like, mom, look at this. And Melissa's like, hey, Novia,

0:43:47.040 --> 0:43:49.360
<v Speaker 1>how about this? And they go back and forth, and meanwhile,

0:43:49.440 --> 0:43:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm just like making breakfast for myself.

0:43:52.360 --> 0:43:54.040
<v Speaker 3>Jeremy still only using Facebook.

0:43:54.160 --> 0:43:55.080
<v Speaker 1>So then she was just giving me.

0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:57.239
<v Speaker 2>A Two weeks after we see something, he's like, oh

0:43:57.239 --> 0:43:58.000
<v Speaker 2>my gosh.

0:43:57.719 --> 0:43:59.719
<v Speaker 3>Did you see this for like, yeah, two weeks ago,

0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:00.960
<v Speaker 3>because this just.

0:44:00.920 --> 0:44:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Happened with one thing. That's why she's saying this. But

0:44:03.440 --> 0:44:05.080
<v Speaker 1>she's trying to convince you to get on Instagram.

0:44:05.120 --> 0:44:08.320
<v Speaker 3>I will not do it, remain on Facebook.

0:44:09.040 --> 0:44:10.719
<v Speaker 1>I have no desire. I don't need more social media

0:44:10.760 --> 0:44:11.719
<v Speaker 1>in my life, any less of it.

0:44:11.800 --> 0:44:16.479
<v Speaker 6>Okay, So the scrub Daddy team anyway, hired a bunch

0:44:16.520 --> 0:44:20.960
<v Speaker 6>of gen zs and their marketing is so dirty, I

0:44:20.960 --> 0:44:23.960
<v Speaker 6>mean so dirty, but it has like skyrocketed the popularity

0:44:24.000 --> 0:44:26.080
<v Speaker 6>of scrub Daddy because everyone thinks it's funny.

0:44:26.360 --> 0:44:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Really yeah, oh yeah, so no wonder this is happening right, Well.

0:44:29.680 --> 0:44:32.840
<v Speaker 3>It's not just them Duo Lingo the owl.

0:44:32.920 --> 0:44:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh that owl is so dirty and so inappropriate and

0:44:35.520 --> 0:44:39.520
<v Speaker 2>he's such a jerk and like that's what people like. Yeah,

0:44:39.840 --> 0:44:42.279
<v Speaker 2>so again it's just a bunch of gen zers. Now,

0:44:42.320 --> 0:44:46.040
<v Speaker 2>these people are not parents, they're younger, and they think

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:48.560
<v Speaker 2>everything is funny. I mean, there this is a group

0:44:48.600 --> 0:44:51.879
<v Speaker 2>that makes like nine to eleven jokes and Holocaust jokes.

0:44:51.880 --> 0:44:54.960
<v Speaker 2>They think everything is funny and everything is a.

0:44:54.920 --> 0:44:55.399
<v Speaker 3>Free for all.

0:44:55.480 --> 0:44:57.800
<v Speaker 1>What makes this difference about freedom? What makes this different

0:44:57.880 --> 0:45:00.560
<v Speaker 1>about Freedom Baby, I think is their product lineup in

0:45:00.600 --> 0:45:03.640
<v Speaker 1>the fact that they make things specifically for babies. Yeah,

0:45:03.640 --> 0:45:06.680
<v Speaker 1>which makes this really weird and beyond I mean awkwards

0:45:06.719 --> 0:45:08.239
<v Speaker 1>and not even the right word to use, because in

0:45:08.280 --> 0:45:09.879
<v Speaker 1>the case of dual lingo, I think in a couple

0:45:09.920 --> 0:45:11.920
<v Speaker 1>of examples that I have seen that I just remembered

0:45:12.360 --> 0:45:14.359
<v Speaker 1>it was funny. At least the ones that I saw

0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>were funny. Maybe sometimes there are some vulgarities there.

0:45:17.400 --> 0:45:20.480
<v Speaker 2>I find the scrub daddy stuff to go way too far,

0:45:20.760 --> 0:45:23.480
<v Speaker 2>especially for Instagram, because there are children that you know

0:45:23.560 --> 0:45:25.120
<v Speaker 2>it's there and like seek it out.

0:45:25.200 --> 0:45:29.200
<v Speaker 1>But if it brings in, like if your sales go

0:45:29.400 --> 0:45:32.560
<v Speaker 1>up and you gain popularity and followers online, it's no

0:45:32.640 --> 0:45:34.799
<v Speaker 1>wonder that other companies are going to do the same thing.

0:45:34.880 --> 0:45:36.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, and it's a lot of companies they jump on

0:45:36.800 --> 0:45:40.040
<v Speaker 2>each other's stuff and leave inappropriate comments.

0:45:39.880 --> 0:45:41.319
<v Speaker 3>Which is I think what you saw a little bit

0:45:41.360 --> 0:45:42.040
<v Speaker 3>with Freeedo Baby.

0:45:42.560 --> 0:45:46.200
<v Speaker 2>So the director of packaging who has since been removed

0:45:46.200 --> 0:45:48.279
<v Speaker 2>from the website. This has become such a big deal

0:45:48.320 --> 0:45:50.399
<v Speaker 2>and so many people are going over to Freedom Mom

0:45:50.760 --> 0:45:52.880
<v Speaker 2>that they took the meat the team down.

0:45:53.440 --> 0:45:55.319
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to provide some examples since we haven't

0:45:55.360 --> 0:45:57.160
<v Speaker 1>as a about what it is that you were discussing.

0:45:57.239 --> 0:45:59.880
<v Speaker 1>So Free to Baby has their online accounts, This on Instagram,

0:46:00.040 --> 0:46:01.080
<v Speaker 1>one's on X that I'm looking at it.

0:46:01.200 --> 0:46:03.440
<v Speaker 2>It's on Instagram, but they've kind of scrubbed the Instagram

0:46:03.440 --> 0:46:06.080
<v Speaker 2>because it's become such a big deal. Their X page,

0:46:06.120 --> 0:46:08.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if they've scrubbed it, but.

0:46:09.160 --> 0:46:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Making some like sexually explicit, but like the semi borderline,

0:46:13.880 --> 0:46:17.400
<v Speaker 1>like witty, so it's not too blatantly like discuss things.

0:46:17.480 --> 0:46:19.480
<v Speaker 2>I think that it's a bunch of gen zers that

0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:23.480
<v Speaker 2>thought it was funny. But because it's like it's products

0:46:23.480 --> 0:46:27.160
<v Speaker 2>for babies, it's completely discussing and inappropriate.

0:46:26.560 --> 0:46:28.000
<v Speaker 1>And given everything that's going on right now.

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:30.960
<v Speaker 2>So everything going on right now and with kids and

0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:34.640
<v Speaker 2>the sexualization of children, I find it to be very distasteful.

0:46:34.719 --> 0:46:37.240
<v Speaker 3>Again, maybe it's just me being uppity, like I can't.

0:46:37.040 --> 0:46:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Even I want to provide you guys with examples of

0:46:38.600 --> 0:46:40.160
<v Speaker 1>what we're talking about her Maybe you're familiar with it.

0:46:40.160 --> 0:46:41.520
<v Speaker 1>But this one right now I'm looking at right now,

0:46:41.520 --> 0:46:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I can read. Hopefully it's not in missard. Okay, camera,

0:46:44.600 --> 0:46:45.480
<v Speaker 1>you can read this one.

0:46:45.560 --> 0:46:48.759
<v Speaker 3>Okay, well, okay, So they have a snotsucker. I own it.

0:46:48.840 --> 0:46:50.600
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know any of this when I bought this stuff.

0:46:50.920 --> 0:46:54.640
<v Speaker 2>So I own the quick thermometer, the three and one thermometer,

0:46:54.760 --> 0:46:58.480
<v Speaker 2>the snotsucker, and the nebulizer, all from Free to Baby.

0:46:58.520 --> 0:47:02.320
<v Speaker 2>I use their oh crap cradle cap. That's what it's

0:47:02.360 --> 0:47:04.799
<v Speaker 2>literally called, oh crap cradle cap.

0:47:04.880 --> 0:47:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You have a problem with stuff like that. I had a.

0:47:06.480 --> 0:47:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Problem with it that it didn't work, But no, I

0:47:09.360 --> 0:47:11.440
<v Speaker 2>don't have a problem so much with that. It's a

0:47:11.480 --> 0:47:14.000
<v Speaker 2>little weird to put crap on like whatever. Like when

0:47:14.000 --> 0:47:16.359
<v Speaker 2>I got the bottle, I was like, that's weird, and

0:47:16.360 --> 0:47:18.200
<v Speaker 2>that was kind of the and then I squirt it

0:47:18.280 --> 0:47:20.520
<v Speaker 2>on his head and moved on with my day. But

0:47:21.000 --> 0:47:24.279
<v Speaker 2>the snotsucker, which Mike absolutely hates that that thing. I

0:47:24.320 --> 0:47:26.040
<v Speaker 2>was trying to vacumunt his nose and he was like

0:47:26.080 --> 0:47:30.839
<v Speaker 2>acting like I was just torturing him. On the side

0:47:30.840 --> 0:47:33.319
<v Speaker 2>of the box, it says I'm a power sucker and

0:47:33.360 --> 0:47:35.719
<v Speaker 2>so that one, like, I guess I just didn't even

0:47:35.719 --> 0:47:39.919
<v Speaker 2>notice that one there, right, And then on their humidifier

0:47:40.040 --> 0:47:42.200
<v Speaker 2>on the box, it says, I get turned on easily

0:47:42.440 --> 0:47:44.000
<v Speaker 2>because it's like a touch humidifier.

0:47:44.520 --> 0:47:45.880
<v Speaker 3>But we all know what they're saying.

0:47:45.960 --> 0:47:47.520
<v Speaker 1>So this is their product packaging.

0:47:47.960 --> 0:47:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the three and one thermometer I just bought. And

0:47:51.640 --> 0:47:53.799
<v Speaker 2>I did notice this box when I bought it. It

0:47:53.840 --> 0:47:56.200
<v Speaker 2>was literally right before we left for our trip. On

0:47:56.239 --> 0:47:59.520
<v Speaker 2>the side, it says, how about a quickie? And I

0:47:59.600 --> 0:48:03.400
<v Speaker 2>just like and then like they have a rectal thermometer.

0:48:03.480 --> 0:48:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Cuse okay, yeah, yeah, okay, No, don't take this too far.

0:48:07.320 --> 0:48:10.080
<v Speaker 1>I just don't want to. It's it's so blatantly like

0:48:10.200 --> 0:48:10.960
<v Speaker 1>over the top.

0:48:11.200 --> 0:48:12.759
<v Speaker 3>Well, I wasn't gonna read all of them. It just

0:48:12.760 --> 0:48:14.920
<v Speaker 3>says this is the closest your husband's going to get

0:48:14.920 --> 0:48:15.480
<v Speaker 3>to a three song.

0:48:15.760 --> 0:48:18.880
<v Speaker 1>See unnecessary, especially if you make good products. Let your

0:48:18.920 --> 0:48:20.560
<v Speaker 1>product speak for yourself and just come up with some

0:48:20.680 --> 0:48:24.560
<v Speaker 1>very straightforward advertising and marketing because it's it's their products

0:48:24.560 --> 0:48:26.440
<v Speaker 1>for babies, and it is there parents that are buying it.

0:48:26.480 --> 0:48:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I guess this is my biggest thing. Yeah, if you're

0:48:28.160 --> 0:48:29.920
<v Speaker 1>talking about a sponging will be clever because it has

0:48:29.960 --> 0:48:33.000
<v Speaker 1>a face and maybe like whatever, right, But when you're

0:48:33.000 --> 0:48:36.600
<v Speaker 1>talking about parents, or especially like young parents like that

0:48:36.640 --> 0:48:38.319
<v Speaker 1>are that are dealing with their six week old baby,

0:48:38.360 --> 0:48:40.160
<v Speaker 1>like nobody wants to think or like being that mindset

0:48:40.200 --> 0:48:42.520
<v Speaker 1>when considering a product to use on that very.

0:48:42.400 --> 0:48:44.480
<v Speaker 3>Child freedom mom stuff's pretty bad too.

0:48:44.520 --> 0:48:47.600
<v Speaker 2>It's just like very insensitive, Like it makes you feel

0:48:47.600 --> 0:48:50.280
<v Speaker 2>like you're after you give birth and you're like gross

0:48:50.320 --> 0:48:51.040
<v Speaker 2>and stretched down.

0:48:51.400 --> 0:48:53.000
<v Speaker 1>A Brett Cooper example.

0:48:52.719 --> 0:48:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Like Brett Cooper was talking about she got like the

0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:58.279
<v Speaker 2>postpartum Kit and then she's like, literally I was reading

0:48:58.320 --> 0:49:00.240
<v Speaker 2>the box and I was she was telling her Husban

0:49:00.320 --> 0:49:03.240
<v Speaker 2>all it's like I just like this makes me feel

0:49:03.520 --> 0:49:04.080
<v Speaker 2>like ichy.

0:49:04.160 --> 0:49:06.360
<v Speaker 3>I don't like it. I don't like this brand.

0:49:07.080 --> 0:49:09.719
<v Speaker 2>And then because it was like it talks about like

0:49:09.840 --> 0:49:12.560
<v Speaker 2>clean yourself up, you're gross and like you're all stretched

0:49:12.600 --> 0:49:13.520
<v Speaker 2>out now, and like.

0:49:13.480 --> 0:49:17.279
<v Speaker 3>These kind of references that just are not what you like.

0:49:17.440 --> 0:49:19.840
<v Speaker 2>It should be about, you know, the beauty of motherhood

0:49:19.880 --> 0:49:23.360
<v Speaker 2>and self care, and like it was just inappropriate. But

0:49:23.400 --> 0:49:25.680
<v Speaker 2>then when you look at the meet the team, it

0:49:25.760 --> 0:49:28.400
<v Speaker 2>makes sense. It's a bunch of young people that aren't parents.

0:49:28.760 --> 0:49:32.400
<v Speaker 1>So they're all like one of these parents, but they

0:49:32.480 --> 0:49:33.920
<v Speaker 1>literally go out of their way to point.

0:49:33.760 --> 0:49:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Out that they're not parents, Like none of them are

0:49:37.280 --> 0:49:40.120
<v Speaker 2>parents except for the CEO. All of these people are

0:49:40.160 --> 0:49:46.320
<v Speaker 2>like order processing specialist, dog mom, proud title, senior international

0:49:46.360 --> 0:49:49.480
<v Speaker 2>e commerce manager. Technically I'm a parent. He just has

0:49:49.480 --> 0:49:53.040
<v Speaker 2>four legs, a tail, and zero respect for human space

0:49:52.360 --> 0:49:56.360
<v Speaker 2>personal space. A brand director is just a dog. First

0:49:56.360 --> 0:49:59.879
<v Speaker 2>of all, that's my child. And then like the guy

0:50:00.080 --> 0:50:03.439
<v Speaker 2>low Hers, like you know, I'm not a parent, but no.

0:50:03.480 --> 0:50:06.840
<v Speaker 1>The heart stepped on enough ran director of packaging. That

0:50:06.880 --> 0:50:09.719
<v Speaker 1>guy that you mention the hardest thing about being a

0:50:09.800 --> 0:50:14.239
<v Speaker 1>parent or the kids, Wow, he loves children. Good for you.

0:50:14.520 --> 0:50:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I think your kids never see that.

0:50:15.880 --> 0:50:18.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, to me, the worst thing is a picture

0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:20.239
<v Speaker 2>of the baby when the snotsucker kind of went a

0:50:20.320 --> 0:50:24.120
<v Speaker 2>rye and went all over their face. The reference to

0:50:24.280 --> 0:50:27.719
<v Speaker 2>that picture is so disgusting, Like I don't know the

0:50:27.719 --> 0:50:30.000
<v Speaker 2>worst one, that's by far the worst one, and it's

0:50:30.000 --> 0:50:35.400
<v Speaker 2>somebody else's baby, and I just find that So.

0:50:34.920 --> 0:50:36.760
<v Speaker 1>So what do you mean of somebody else's bab.

0:50:36.760 --> 0:50:39.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's somebody sent that in as like probably

0:50:39.400 --> 0:50:41.440
<v Speaker 2>funny of like, look what happened to my baby, and

0:50:41.480 --> 0:50:42.759
<v Speaker 2>then they put the caption what.

0:50:42.719 --> 0:50:43.759
<v Speaker 1>Do I do with this for the sake of the

0:50:43.800 --> 0:50:45.720
<v Speaker 1>podcast episode? Do I put this stuff off on screen?

0:50:46.160 --> 0:50:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I can't with that.

0:50:48.680 --> 0:50:52.799
<v Speaker 2>There's I have a picture where the baby's blocked out. Yeah,

0:50:52.920 --> 0:50:54.880
<v Speaker 2>but I mean there's just like all kinds of stuff

0:50:54.920 --> 0:51:00.359
<v Speaker 2>on here, like relax well from here. It just it's

0:51:00.360 --> 0:51:02.960
<v Speaker 2>so inappropriate, and it's every box and every product.

0:51:03.040 --> 0:51:05.000
<v Speaker 3>It's not like, oh, you're just taking that too.

0:51:04.880 --> 0:51:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Far again, I feel like I cannot you know what,

0:51:08.960 --> 0:51:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just going to put this one up on screen

0:51:11.200 --> 0:51:12.279
<v Speaker 1>and everyone can read it for them.

0:51:12.320 --> 0:51:15.400
<v Speaker 2>So it's important to show this stuff is hanging at Target,

0:51:15.880 --> 0:51:17.680
<v Speaker 2>It's hanging in the shelves at Target.

0:51:17.960 --> 0:51:20.560
<v Speaker 1>What are we doing? Like, where where do things go

0:51:20.600 --> 0:51:21.040
<v Speaker 1>from here?

0:51:21.239 --> 0:51:22.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:51:22.239 --> 0:51:24.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean the fact that we can not normalize this,

0:51:24.880 --> 0:51:26.799
<v Speaker 1>but the fact that we all become so numb to.

0:51:27.640 --> 0:51:30.440
<v Speaker 2>It's like if you don't think it's funny, then then

0:51:30.440 --> 0:51:34.920
<v Speaker 2>you're just such a boomer, you know, Like I'm.

0:51:34.800 --> 0:51:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Just I guess I'm just a little more disturbed by

0:51:36.200 --> 0:51:37.480
<v Speaker 1>the fact that, like you said, this stuff is right

0:51:37.600 --> 0:51:39.960
<v Speaker 1>like literally on their box. But even you said acknowledge

0:51:39.960 --> 0:51:42.160
<v Speaker 1>you didn't even notice it because you've just kind of

0:51:42.200 --> 0:51:45.400
<v Speaker 1>liked the whole bad money thing. We're so numbs to it.

0:51:45.440 --> 0:51:47.960
<v Speaker 1>You you literally have just come to expect it and

0:51:48.000 --> 0:51:49.920
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't even impact or affective in the way that

0:51:50.200 --> 0:51:50.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe it should.

0:51:51.160 --> 0:51:53.799
<v Speaker 2>Right, Well, yeah, I think we see it on you know,

0:51:54.560 --> 0:51:56.759
<v Speaker 2>we see it on television, We see it in our advertising,

0:51:56.800 --> 0:51:59.520
<v Speaker 2>we see it all over Instagram and Facebook.

0:51:59.560 --> 0:52:01.720
<v Speaker 3>Ad can pains to desensitize.

0:52:01.920 --> 0:52:04.799
<v Speaker 2>You become desensitized to it, and then it becomes like, oh,

0:52:05.120 --> 0:52:07.319
<v Speaker 2>like if you if you don't think it's funny, then

0:52:07.360 --> 0:52:08.040
<v Speaker 2>you're just old.

0:52:08.280 --> 0:52:11.759
<v Speaker 1>It was dark tune like that. Yeah, that's the threesome one.

0:52:12.239 --> 0:52:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, with the baby in that.

0:52:13.960 --> 0:52:17.840
<v Speaker 1>That's beyond right, like dark, it's just dis yeah what.

0:52:18.960 --> 0:52:21.959
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So I think that they totally miss the market.

0:52:22.000 --> 0:52:24.879
<v Speaker 2>They're definitely hurting right now for it because a bunch

0:52:24.880 --> 0:52:26.680
<v Speaker 2>of people are going in and finally, I mean, I'm

0:52:26.719 --> 0:52:29.160
<v Speaker 2>assuming that they're going to revamp their packaging. If they

0:52:29.160 --> 0:52:32.040
<v Speaker 2>don't they double down, then they're probably going to lose

0:52:32.080 --> 0:52:35.759
<v Speaker 2>a lot of parents because parents aren't finding this gen

0:52:35.880 --> 0:52:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Z humor funny.

0:52:36.840 --> 0:52:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Are the products good though you've been using them?

0:52:39.200 --> 0:52:42.760
<v Speaker 2>So I'm yeah, I mean I think the products are fine.

0:52:42.800 --> 0:52:45.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that they's superior to any other products.

0:52:45.239 --> 0:52:47.000
<v Speaker 2>They just they happen to be like a good cheap

0:52:47.000 --> 0:52:48.840
<v Speaker 2>price point when they were available.

0:52:48.400 --> 0:52:50.880
<v Speaker 1>On Amazon, Like, yeah, do we have to do this?

0:52:50.880 --> 0:52:54.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't write it's unnecessary and it's inappropriate, and it

0:52:54.719 --> 0:52:59.800
<v Speaker 2>sexualizes children, and it sexualizes parenthood and the innocence and

0:52:59.840 --> 0:53:01.880
<v Speaker 2>the beauty of that, and it just kind of corrupts

0:53:01.920 --> 0:53:04.239
<v Speaker 2>it and makes it something dirty and funny when it's

0:53:04.320 --> 0:53:06.120
<v Speaker 2>something beautiful and pure and of God.

0:53:06.200 --> 0:53:08.520
<v Speaker 1>And I just how did you catch win of this?

0:53:09.000 --> 0:53:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Uh, it's just it's all over right now. People are

0:53:11.320 --> 0:53:14.960
<v Speaker 2>just I've seen a bunch of I saw it on

0:53:15.080 --> 0:53:17.400
<v Speaker 2>I saw the one thing on the box, and then

0:53:17.440 --> 0:53:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I thought back on the cradle cap thing, and I

0:53:19.520 --> 0:53:22.040
<v Speaker 2>thought like, okay, that's I told Nevada, I think gen

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Z is doing their marketing.

0:53:23.360 --> 0:53:24.120
<v Speaker 3>But I didn't know.

0:53:24.560 --> 0:53:28.120
<v Speaker 2>I had never gone down their Instagram page and looked

0:53:28.160 --> 0:53:29.880
<v Speaker 2>at how disturbing.

0:53:29.440 --> 0:53:31.480
<v Speaker 1>It is as the brand different now.

0:53:32.560 --> 0:53:37.040
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, well my yeah, I unless they revamp their packaging,

0:53:37.080 --> 0:53:38.560
<v Speaker 2>I guess, you know, you just got to do it

0:53:38.560 --> 0:53:41.440
<v Speaker 2>with your ad dollars. But I mean even responses that

0:53:41.480 --> 0:53:43.239
<v Speaker 2>they have like Netflix.

0:53:42.760 --> 0:53:44.720
<v Speaker 3>Wrote what is something?

0:53:45.160 --> 0:53:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Netflix writes a post on x saying, what is something

0:53:47.840 --> 0:53:52.640
<v Speaker 2>that you can say during? But also when you manage

0:53:52.640 --> 0:53:55.920
<v Speaker 2>a brand Twitter account, freeedo Baby jumps in there and

0:53:55.960 --> 0:53:58.640
<v Speaker 2>they're like, oh, something you can say during and also

0:53:58.680 --> 0:54:01.959
<v Speaker 2>something you would say is yeah in your mouth?

0:54:02.760 --> 0:54:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I get it.

0:54:03.239 --> 0:54:08.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what on earth? Hashtag knows freeda, which is our

0:54:08.360 --> 0:54:12.319
<v Speaker 2>first product? Like your product is gross enough, but not

0:54:12.480 --> 0:54:13.759
<v Speaker 2>having to add all that so.

0:54:13.920 --> 0:54:16.480
<v Speaker 1>It's not the bote too much time to is so.

0:54:16.440 --> 0:54:18.279
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, Yeah, I just again, it kind of just goes

0:54:18.320 --> 0:54:20.160
<v Speaker 2>back to like can't we all just do better? Like

0:54:20.160 --> 0:54:22.920
<v Speaker 2>why does everything have to be dirty? Why does everything

0:54:23.000 --> 0:54:26.600
<v Speaker 2>have to be like a raunchy joke in order to

0:54:26.600 --> 0:54:27.320
<v Speaker 2>be funny.

0:54:27.040 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Because you're a stubborn bad bunny fan.

0:54:29.920 --> 0:54:31.560
<v Speaker 3>No, I'm not a bad bunny fan at all.

0:54:31.719 --> 0:54:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Like no, Like I think he's inappropriate too, Like why

0:54:35.000 --> 0:54:36.799
<v Speaker 2>can't we just all do better? Why can't we just

0:54:36.800 --> 0:54:39.400
<v Speaker 2>get back to like wholesome family stuff. Why is it

0:54:39.520 --> 0:54:42.320
<v Speaker 2>only people that grew up with the wholesome not the

0:54:42.320 --> 0:54:42.920
<v Speaker 2>wholesome neess.

0:54:42.960 --> 0:54:45.359
<v Speaker 1>It's not flashy, it's not the dope mean here, it's

0:54:45.400 --> 0:54:48.040
<v Speaker 1>not sexy, it's not appealing to most people nowadays, given

0:54:48.080 --> 0:54:49.080
<v Speaker 1>what it is that we have access to.

0:54:49.160 --> 0:54:53.160
<v Speaker 2>That's the reason why, I mean even comedians, like comedians

0:54:53.239 --> 0:54:56.440
<v Speaker 2>just aren't even considered funny unless they're so raunchy and

0:54:56.480 --> 0:54:59.680
<v Speaker 2>they're so over the top. The Netflix specials by every

0:54:59.719 --> 0:55:02.600
<v Speaker 2>single comedian, you can't have your children watch any of that.

0:55:02.880 --> 0:55:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's non marketed at kids. But like, my favorite

0:55:07.640 --> 0:55:10.360
<v Speaker 1>comedians are those that are are clean and clever. You

0:55:10.400 --> 0:55:11.920
<v Speaker 1>can come up with a bit that's really clever and

0:55:12.120 --> 0:55:14.560
<v Speaker 1>like right in front of your face and very abundantly obvious,

0:55:14.600 --> 0:55:17.200
<v Speaker 1>but you have some like weird, bizarre outlook on it,

0:55:17.200 --> 0:55:18.880
<v Speaker 1>and that's what makes it funny. Like those are my

0:55:18.880 --> 0:55:19.319
<v Speaker 1>favorite kind.

0:55:19.400 --> 0:55:21.200
<v Speaker 3>I think that's harder to be funny though it is.

0:55:21.280 --> 0:55:23.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yeah, yeah for sure.

0:55:23.880 --> 0:55:24.239
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:55:24.320 --> 0:55:26.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I just I just kind of wish everybody could

0:55:26.760 --> 0:55:28.279
<v Speaker 2>do a little bit better. And we need to be

0:55:28.360 --> 0:55:31.840
<v Speaker 2>really careful when we're talking about our children or anybody

0:55:31.840 --> 0:55:36.200
<v Speaker 2>else's children, to like, let's keep this PG their kids,

0:55:36.320 --> 0:55:38.799
<v Speaker 2>let them be kids, let them be innocent. Let's not

0:55:38.840 --> 0:55:41.680
<v Speaker 2>make adult jokes around kids and say like, oh, well,

0:55:41.719 --> 0:55:43.720
<v Speaker 2>the kids don't get it. Like I think it started

0:55:43.719 --> 0:55:46.719
<v Speaker 2>with Shrek. Remember, like Shrek is funny, but it does

0:55:46.760 --> 0:55:49.840
<v Speaker 2>have some adult humor that was like not necessarily a

0:55:49.840 --> 0:55:50.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of in you, I know.

0:55:51.400 --> 0:55:53.200
<v Speaker 3>And they say like, oh, that's for the parents.

0:55:53.280 --> 0:55:55.120
<v Speaker 2>It's like, yeah, but the kids are watching too, and

0:55:55.239 --> 0:55:58.080
<v Speaker 2>kids are clever and kids aren't stupid. They catch on

0:55:58.120 --> 0:56:00.879
<v Speaker 2>to this stuff, and it's just why are we normalizing

0:56:00.920 --> 0:56:05.440
<v Speaker 2>it for children? Even if it's geared for the parents,

0:56:05.840 --> 0:56:09.239
<v Speaker 2>when it involves children, it's unnecessary. We all need to

0:56:09.239 --> 0:56:10.080
<v Speaker 2>do better, Yeah.

0:56:10.760 --> 0:56:13.560
<v Speaker 1>For sure. All right on that note, so I appreciate

0:56:13.560 --> 0:56:15.120
<v Speaker 1>you guys being here once again. We will see you

0:56:15.160 --> 0:56:18.160
<v Speaker 1>next week. Yes, yep, anything else you want to plug

0:56:18.200 --> 0:56:19.480
<v Speaker 1>in here in the meantime.

0:56:19.160 --> 0:56:19.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so.

0:56:20.200 --> 0:56:22.239
<v Speaker 1>Sure, Yeah you feel better? Do you feel better?

0:56:22.600 --> 0:56:24.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean, and I think people are going to be

0:56:24.960 --> 0:56:25.640
<v Speaker 3>just as upset.

0:56:25.760 --> 0:56:28.839
<v Speaker 2>I just it's just kind of where amount as a mom,

0:56:28.880 --> 0:56:31.040
<v Speaker 2>maybe I'm just maybe I just am in a place

0:56:31.040 --> 0:56:36.120
<v Speaker 2>where I want to see anything geared towards kids to

0:56:36.280 --> 0:56:37.319
<v Speaker 2>just be a little bit more.

0:56:37.600 --> 0:56:39.520
<v Speaker 1>It causes stress a little bit more. When you get

0:56:39.520 --> 0:56:41.520
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of people, even just typing words online that

0:56:41.560 --> 0:56:43.360
<v Speaker 1>are directed you, it causes a little bit of stress.

0:56:43.440 --> 0:56:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what causes you to like, okay, was I off, like,

0:56:47.200 --> 0:56:48.520
<v Speaker 2>am I not thinking clearly?

0:56:49.280 --> 0:56:51.840
<v Speaker 3>Am Am I wrong in thinking this?

0:56:52.280 --> 0:56:54.719
<v Speaker 1>And I appreciate that for that very reason, like it

0:56:54.760 --> 0:56:56.520
<v Speaker 1>causes you to reflect and be like, no, let me

0:56:56.560 --> 0:56:57.120
<v Speaker 1>revisit this.

0:56:57.160 --> 0:56:57.319
<v Speaker 6>Here.

0:56:57.480 --> 0:56:59.359
<v Speaker 1>Was I right? And you know, like we're not perfect people.

0:56:59.440 --> 0:57:01.080
<v Speaker 1>We will make this and if we do make a mistake,

0:57:01.120 --> 0:57:02.799
<v Speaker 1>will come in here. But in this case, you felt

0:57:02.840 --> 0:57:03.839
<v Speaker 1>okay about what she said?

0:57:04.040 --> 0:57:05.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I really did.

0:57:06.040 --> 0:57:09.280
<v Speaker 2>And then like funny, the very next day, I watched

0:57:09.520 --> 0:57:11.880
<v Speaker 2>Elie Bestuccy talk about it, and I thought that she

0:57:11.960 --> 0:57:15.719
<v Speaker 2>did a much more eloquent job of explaining pretty much

0:57:15.760 --> 0:57:18.600
<v Speaker 2>the exact same thing that I was saying. So after

0:57:18.640 --> 0:57:21.080
<v Speaker 2>I listened to her podcast, I was like, yeah, that's

0:57:21.080 --> 0:57:22.760
<v Speaker 2>like what I was trying to say. Maybe I just

0:57:22.760 --> 0:57:24.640
<v Speaker 2>didn't say it in a good way.

0:57:24.640 --> 0:57:27.280
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly.

0:57:27.520 --> 0:57:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that'll happen.

0:57:28.560 --> 0:57:31.320
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, she does a good job of explaining what

0:57:31.320 --> 0:57:33.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to say. If anyone wants to check that out,

0:57:33.280 --> 0:57:33.640
<v Speaker 2>all right, this.

0:57:33.720 --> 0:57:35.480
