Speaker 1: Mojo in the morning show. So when we talk about
Speaker 1: all of us as parents, I think we are all.
Speaker 1: If we were going to give a grade, I think
Speaker 1: we are all. A's right. I think we all.
Speaker 2: I think we strive to be we fail sometimes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I will say this, for the most part,
Speaker 1: our kids aren't fed up, right, Oh that's a fact. Yes,
Speaker 1: extremely blessed with how they's turning out. But when it
Speaker 1: comes to being a parent, when it's a sports parent,
Speaker 1: Shannon might be a d because because Shannon seems to
Speaker 1: fail sometimes with her kids sporting events effort. What happened? Well,
Speaker 1: the other day you told the story about you know smithfield, Yeah,
Speaker 1: wrong field, that it's wrong field for him.
Speaker 2: I think that was Lucy Lucy's Now.
Speaker 1: Listen, listen to.
Speaker 2: This you guys. I did not grow up playing a
Speaker 2: single sport zero. I did theater, I sang, I did ballet,
Speaker 2: So that, like I am, I'm I'm still very much learning.
Speaker 2: My kids are really great competitive swimmers. They pretty much
Speaker 2: swim all year round. Summer swim, though, is a different beast,
Speaker 2: And if you are a swim parent that has a
Speaker 2: kid in summer swim, you understand this. They are very
Speaker 2: passionate about their teams, and so Lucy and Smith's team,
Speaker 2: their team color is purple. So when I go to
Speaker 2: their swim meets, everybody, all the parents are wearing purple.
Speaker 2: I don't really have anything that's purple, so I try
Speaker 2: to wear like a neutral color so that I'm not
Speaker 2: wearing the color of the opposing team. And at this point,
Speaker 2: they've been swimming for this team for a couple of years,
Speaker 2: so I like kind of know the colors of what
Speaker 2: the other teams are, and I've avoided wearing those colors
Speaker 2: until this week when I knew the other team and
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I'm pretty darn sure that they're green,
Speaker 2: Like their team color is green, so mental note, don't
Speaker 2: wear green. I show up in navy blue. I get
Speaker 2: to the swim meet, I see all the hordes of purple,
Speaker 2: purple bathing suits, purple dresses, purple shirts, whatever. And then
Speaker 2: I see the other team. Their entire teering section is
Speaker 2: in navy blue. Up, So I like walk I walk
Speaker 2: out into the pool deck and Lucy walks up and
Speaker 2: She's like, oh my god, go home and change right now.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm not going home and changing, like at
Speaker 2: this point. I'm here, I've parked my car, I've walked over.
Speaker 1: We good and it's and it's not a situation where
Speaker 1: and it.
Speaker 2: Sounds stupid, but it is a thing.
Speaker 1: It's a home swimming pool. You can buy merch. Like
Speaker 1: they don't have merch there.
Speaker 2: You can't do that. No, So like you're stuck purple?
Speaker 2: Why do you not like purple? No, I just don't
Speaker 2: have a plethora of purple in my closets and opportunity
Speaker 2: to shop. So here's the other thing. I don't belong
Speaker 2: to this swim club, so it feels kind of strange
Speaker 2: to me to wear. Yeah, like it's as you could.
Speaker 2: It was ninety degrees, you know, So that is tough.
Speaker 1: That is tough when you show up at an event, you.
Speaker 2: Know, uncomfortable. Anyway, I don't belong to this club. So
Speaker 2: I get there and I'm like, all right, can I
Speaker 2: buy myself to cheer them on? And then I'm like,
Speaker 2: f f F, I'm wearing the wrong color.
Speaker 1: Kevin, Anna and Bianca, Lydia and Zach I. My kids
Speaker 1: were never swimmers, but I've gone our friends, Uh, Jessica
Speaker 1: and will Christy their kids swam, and Chelsea and I said,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go see.
Speaker 2: It light blue.
Speaker 1: There's a different it's.
Speaker 2: A different ways. I'm it sounds so dumb. She's wearing
Speaker 2: their own color. They will eat you a lot.
Speaker 1: So if these parents are like they're like country club parents,
Speaker 1: so they're they're kind of already like they got a
Speaker 1: little uh, you know, google their bougie. But they drink
Speaker 1: and they party and they get kind of kind of
Speaker 1: crazy and they get a little caddy. And I bet
Speaker 1: you that those I bet you the parents talking about
Speaker 1: talking about you.
Speaker 2: They're all talking about me.
Speaker 1: I know what, Well, I just I just take a
Speaker 1: link for a purple shirt that says swim mom. So
Speaker 1: we're good. Next, gosh, do you have your car decorated?
Speaker 1: Because I see also when I you know, it's driven
Speaker 1: in you know, Orchard Lake.
Speaker 2: And yeah, well that's a thing.
Speaker 1: I'll see these cars decorated. The parents like and they
Speaker 1: draw like, first off, I love my kids. My kids
Speaker 1: went to these all these wonderful kids school, Notre Dame Prep,
Speaker 1: Marris Grade School. I would never put a fighting Irish
Speaker 1: thing on my car. I don't put things on my car.
Speaker 1: I don't know, and I would never even if my
Speaker 1: kids and Joe played for the Catholic League Championship for
Speaker 1: football and baseball. I don't think I would even let
Speaker 1: my kids draw on the car. Like these kids, don't
Speaker 1: they do that on their car? That's the thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what is it that they're drawing with? Is it? Like?
Speaker 2: I think there's like a car paint car markers, right,
Speaker 2: I think they actually sell those on Amazon.
Speaker 1: Like if Luke said to me, he goes, Dad, can I,
Speaker 1: you know, write writing on the car? I would probably
Speaker 1: say no too. I used to show up at games
Speaker 1: at Notre Dame Prep and I hated green because a
Speaker 1: guy that is two hundred and eighty pounds wearing green
Speaker 1: is not good looking. Shrek, do you know what?
Speaker 2: You were a green quartership earlier this week and it
Speaker 2: was a pleasant surprise to see you in not black
Speaker 2: or navy.
Speaker 1: The sun goes to Michigan States. You can't get away
Speaker 1: from it. Yeah, I and that's true. But green. Back
Speaker 1: in high school days, I actually would go on to
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame University that was the University of Notre Dame.
Speaker 1: I would go on their merch page and buy better
Speaker 1: stuff because the school bookstore Notre Dame Prep, it wasn't
Speaker 1: good like bad stuff? What kind of So how do
Speaker 1: we grade Shannon as a mom on this? One hair
Speaker 1: with Lucy Heart was there? It was your heart?
Speaker 2: Thank you?
Speaker 1: Give you a for heart execution. When is the next swim?
Speaker 2: Do they have Sunday?
Speaker 1: So?
Speaker 2: And I know the colors of this that's the color
Speaker 2: of black and white.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you don't want black.
Speaker 2: We got to so I'm not wearing black and white.
Speaker 1: So they don't wear purple all the time?
Speaker 2: They do? They do. I'm saying the opposing team is
Speaker 2: black and white.
Speaker 1: I asked you a question about swim because again I
Speaker 1: was a little confused when I was there with the Christies.
Speaker 1: Do you like, do you your kid is only There's
Speaker 1: your kid only swim like one time out of the
Speaker 1: whole day? Multiple?
Speaker 2: Well, it depends. I mean Lous and Smith are in
Speaker 2: They're usually in like four different events each.
Speaker 1: I feel bad for the kids who you can tell
Speaker 1: don't want to be there when it's a sport like swimming,
Speaker 1: because if the kids that want to go in the pool,
Speaker 1: you're like everybody sees you because you're swimming against everybody.
Speaker 1: Like it's not like in basketball or whatever that you Yeah,
Speaker 1: you play in the sand or playing the infield. Whatever,
Speaker 1: you guys have.
Speaker 2: To come to one, pick weeds.
Speaker 1: Honestly, I would come. It's a party, like it's no party.
Speaker 1: Where are they getting the drugs at the at the bar?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah bool? Oh yeah. This is the most lits
Speaker 1: for ever. Yeah yeah, I'm telling you man, that's that's
Speaker 1: out of all the sports. That would have been my
Speaker 1: favorite sport if the kids were going to play it.
Speaker 1: Somebody said that there's window crans. What is that? Yeah, crayon,
Speaker 1: I say everything. Now, you said craig On, You said,
Speaker 1: I say crayons. Crayons. Remember when they dropped the sixty
Speaker 1: four box with the sharpener in.
