00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Minnesota Goodbye, Here we go. What do we do on

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye? If you're new here?

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 2: What do we do?

4
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: We mostly read emails. I mean, if you got something

5
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: you want to bring up, a question or a comment,

6
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: or don't know, a complaint or observation or just something

7
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,479
Speaker 1: that you like, you know, pet peeve or whatever, we'd

8
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: love to hear from you. You're really what you're The

9
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: show is really all about you, and then we get

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: to read your emails. Yeah, so before we start, is

11
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: there anything that you guys want to bring up? Anything

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: on your mind? What do you want to bring up?

13
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 3: Can you tell I'm wearing Bailey's brown mascare today or

14
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 3: does it look exactly like the mascure I normally wear,

15
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 3: Because the amount of people that were like Jenny use

16
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 3: brown makeup instead, I'm telling.

17
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: You brown eyeliner.

18
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: I'm not okay, So maybe it's that though, But still

19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 3: as I'm putting it on, I'm like, this looks exactly

20
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: like the black mascara I use already.

21
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I have brand new mascara that looks the

22
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 4: same as all the other mascara you've used.

23
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 2: So all right, Well, thanks Bailey, welcome.

24
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 3: I was in need of a new mascara right now,

25
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 3: and I didn't want to buy any because I want

26
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 3: fresh ones for Bali, which is a chick thing. I understand,

27
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: but I was like, I'm holding off, So I appreciate.

28
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: You anyone, You're welcome.

29
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 1: I will make a observation as a guy that we

30
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: don't care. And I don't mean that in a mean way.

31
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: We don't notice. We don't care, like when you get

32
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: your nails done, we don't notice. We don't think some.

33
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: Guys do not like goes out of his way to

34
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 3: pay for a lot Alyssa to get her nails done

35
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 3: and stuff, not because he needs her to have her

36
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: nails done, but he does things like that. So I

37
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 3: think some people are like that. I gave up on

38
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 3: getting my nails done years ago. That shit was so

39
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: annoying to maintain.

40
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: Oh it's exhausting.

41
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: So I get that, and Susan will get her nails done.

42
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: It's like where you're going. She's got going down to

43
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: the nail salon and she's there for I mean, what

44
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: does it take ninety minutes? Maybe is that realistic?

45
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 3: Depends on what you're getting done. But listen, once I

46
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 3: get to a life of like what Susan does, I'm

47
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: getting my nails done, like that would be a perk,

48
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 3: But right now, life's too busy and I'm athletic, you know,

49
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 3: I'm in the gym. I don't need to be breaking

50
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 3: nails left and right.

51
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

52
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

53
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: And a lot of the time when Susan gets her

54
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: hair done, she'll be like, you like my hair, and

55
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, uh, yoh, because we just don't. And it's

56
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: not that we're rude, even though it might come across

57
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: this room. We're just don't observe things like that. Yeah,

58
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: you know, Okay, All right, here we go. First email,

59
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: I was listening to you all talk about love and

60
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: how rare it is. We had a really interesting conversation.

61
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting yesterday because it just kind

62
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: of came to me like it's so hard to find

63
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: somebody that we love. But when you do find somebody,

64
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: you want it to be reciprocated. Yeah, And what a

65
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: miracle it is in a way that you find somebody

66
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: of all the people that are out there, you find

67
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: somebody that you're comfortable kissing and holding hands with and

68
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: making love with and spending the weekend and going on

69
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: a road trip with you find this person that you

70
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: connect with, but they also have to connect with you.

71
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: That kind of it seems like a you know, like

72
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: you found I don't know, something in a haystack, like

73
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: a needle in a haystack, because it seems so rare,

74
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: but at the same time, it happens all the time. Yeah,

75
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: people fall in love every day, and then other people

76
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: will be like, I can't find anybody, and it's like, well,

77
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: I think if you can't find anybody, you've done something

78
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: wrong or you're your own worst enemy. Like well, I

79
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: want a guy who's this and this and this, and

80
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: you can't match. You can't meet up with somebody like that.

81
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, Okay, Anyway, she says, I can tell

82
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: you my experience with true love. About thirteen years ago,

83
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: I was with a guy. We were absolutely happy. I

84
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: thought he was my guy forever. Then we both met

85
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: and worked with another guy who was awesome, but my

86
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: guy at the time ended up being a complete drunk

87
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: and we eventually broke it off three years later. Then

88
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: still working with said other guy for years, he was

89
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: married and we never crossed that boundary, but there was

90
00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: something truly there. He finally got divorced and spens time

91
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: with himself, and then finally found himself back to me.

92
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: He is the love of my life and I wouldn't

93
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: change our story for anything. I truly knew we were

94
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: meant to be together from day one, but I respected

95
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: our boundaries and spouses because they both had somebody else

96
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: and let things happen naturally. I knew right away he

97
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: was my soulmate, but I had to let him take

98
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: his time, and I'm so glad I did. We've been

99
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: together six years and his ex girlfriend found herself a

100
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: man for her too, so we co parent. It's not

101
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: always easy, but we are so much happier. Isn't that interesting?

102
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: How how love came to this couple? She ran into

103
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: somebody at work and loved them, and they loved her back.

104
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, That's what I was saying yesterday. Is that, like,

105
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 4: not only do you think, wow, what a miracle, I

106
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 4: have met someone who also likes me back in the

107
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 4: same way. But it usually not usually, but like often

108
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 4: happens multiple times in your life?

109
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, not just once?

110
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think would you agree? And I don't

111
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: know whether it's true, but would you agree that each

112
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: love you find is more powerful than the last love

113
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: have you had. Maybe you don't agree.

114
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 3: I don't think I've had enough life experience to make

115
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: a comment on that.

116
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, and.

117
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 1: I could be wrong, and it could be and now

118
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: that I say it out loud, I might be completely

119
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: wrong because I think for a lot of people, there's

120
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: the one that got away, and that was ten years ago,

121
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: and they still think about that guy or that woman

122
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: even though they're moderately happily married to somebody else. Yeah, okay,

123
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: next one, don't say my name. You were talking about

124
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: Tuesday about family dynamics for holidays, and I got some

125
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: crazy ones to navigate. It's a longer email, but I'm

126
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 1: going to see if I can skim through it a

127
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: little bit. Here. I am married with a toddler six

128
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: month old baby. My husband's parents are divorced and both remarried.

129
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: His mom's parents are divorced as well, so on his

130
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: side we're always invited to every side's holiday gathering. We

131
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: would have his mom's house three times, one time with

132
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 1: her dad there, another time with her mom there, and

133
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: last time with her husband's side, and it goes on

134
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: and on and on, basically to talk about how they

135
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: have I think, They say, I don't know. Not eight here,

136
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: it is eight parties. For a typical year at Christmas,

137
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: we are invited to a total of eight parties and

138
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: they say, oh, no pressure, no pressure. But if we

139
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: skip or come later or leave early, people get pissy.

140
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: But one year we're all at my husband's mom's house

141
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: with her husband's side, if you can follow that, and

142
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: my husband's stepdad's mom was upset. We were leaving early

143
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: to go to my grandma's for her party. She said,

144
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: how old is your grandma? Said, she's ninety four. She said, well,

145
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: I guess she's older than me, so you can go

146
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: see her. It might be her last Christmas. After all,

147
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: channeling my inner wan Nita, I almost replied, bitch, my

148
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: grandma ain't going nowhere, but you might be.

149
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 2: WHOA.

150
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: That's got to be tough. Family dynamics are such a

151
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: tough subject with me and my husband. We're so blessed

152
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 1: everybody lives so close to us, but that also makes

153
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: it hard to navigate who we see and how to

154
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: keep it even as possible. The longer we've been married,

155
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: the more rude comments we get from the extended family,

156
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: the easier it is to cut out parties we genuinely

157
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: don't enjoy going to. We only get so many years

158
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: at Christmases with our kids being young, and I don't

159
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: want to spend them constantly checking the time and running

160
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: all over the place. I feel for you, because that's

161
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: got to suck. I already feel a little bit bad

162
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: for Allison. I mean, she's blessed in the biggest way.

163
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: She's blessed. She's got me and Susan, she's got Justin's

164
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: mom and dad, and she's got her own little family.

165
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: So on Christmas it could be something like Christmas Eve

166
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: is with us, Christmas Morning is five hours with her

167
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: and her little girls, and Christmas afternoon is Justin's mom

168
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: and dad, you know, And that's just the way it is.

169
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Christmas time is like the one time

170
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: in my opinion that's like so fun and magical that

171
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: I'm willing to do all of the different Christmases and

172
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 3: all of that stuff. Like when I dated someone, we

173
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 3: did kind of like switch around holidays of where we went,

174
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 3: but like we would do Christmas Eve here in the

175
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 3: Twin Cities and then get up in the morn and

176
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: drive to my hometown and like get to my Christmas

177
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 3: Day stuff by like one pm and be whatever. So

178
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 3: like sometimes we'd miss certain things, but I didn't mind

179
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 3: that because I just it's so fun.

180
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 4: I agree where I would honestly prefer to like cart

181
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,119
Speaker 4: around and be a part of a bunch of different

182
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 4: Christmases on Christmas because it's all about family and I

183
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 4: love my family, but my family is really small, and

184
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 4: every Christmas it's the same people that I see every

185
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 4: single year, and once we like are done opening presents,

186
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 4: we all just kind of sit around and stare at

187
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 4: each other.

188
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 2: So it'd be kind of fun to be.

189
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 4: Like, all right, got to head out and head up

190
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 4: another potla haha.

191
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 2: I think that'd be fun. But I'm a different kind

192
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: of person.

193
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: You're you're that way, you're social that way. Where I

194
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: like a Christmas where I get up, I'm in my

195
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: pjs for most of the day. Maybe somebody comes by

196
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: around eleven and we open up more presents and then

197
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: we you know, I like to I don't like a

198
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: hectic holiday kind of a thing.

199
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 3: I think I'll also I should say that obviously I

200
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 3: don't have kids, so it's very different when you have

201
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 3: to cart around kids and I would want to spend

202
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 3: my Christmas morning waking up slowly with kids and having

203
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 3: them have just like the magic in our home of

204
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 3: opening presence.

205
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: So all right, next one again, don't say my name.

206
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: Thanks for putting that up front because that always helps me.

207
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: Question for Dave how often do you and your wife

208
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: reach out to your kids? Or Jenny Bailey, how often

209
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: do you hear from your parents or do they reach

210
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: out to you or do you call them, text, call,

211
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: FaceTime whatever. I would say it depends on the kid because,

212
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: for example, Beth not that often because Beth has got

213
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: her own family, she's got her own job, she's got

214
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff going on, but probably should do

215
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: more often. I would say once a month ish. With Beth,

216
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: that's not very often.

217
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, what about the Carson.

218
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 1: Carson is he doesn't have kids or a partner, so

219
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 1: we're like probably two or three times a week with Carson.

220
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 2: Like calling or just texting.

221
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: Oh well, I would say yeah, probably if you combine

222
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: everything four or five times a week with a FaceTime

223
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: and a call in there at least once Alison we

224
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: see her more often, So I would say probably twice

225
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: a week. And Chase his mom died, his stepdad died,

226
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: he still got family and things like that. So I

227
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: would say, Chase, I text once a week, call every

228
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: two weeks. How often you talk to mom, Miranda, I will.

229
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 2: Text her daily.

230
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: If I go more than a day without texting her,

231
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 4: I'll be like, oh gosh, I didn't text my mom today.

232
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,479
Speaker 4: So I talk to her all the time, and sometimes,

233
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 4: like I probably call her on the phone every two

234
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 4: or three days and talk to her about I don't know,

235
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 4: twenty minutes every time. I don't remember the last time

236
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 4: I talked to my dad on the phone unless I

237
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 4: needed something. So but he also never calls me and

238
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 4: his whole life. He has always said the phone works

239
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 4: both ways, but then doesn't follow that rule. So I

240
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 4: used to call him more often, and sometimes I feel

241
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 4: bad or I'm like, you know who I haven't talked

242
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 4: to in a while, my dad. But then I just

243
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 4: show up at his house for like he did my taxes,

244
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 4: so I saw him then because I had to give

245
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 4: him my paperwork.

246
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 3: Any it's about once a quarter kind of phone call

247
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 3: with my father outside of seeing him if I'm ever home,

248
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 3: which I'm not home very often. And then my mom

249
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 3: and I really don't have like set times. We talk

250
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 3: randomly a lot of times if one of us need

251
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: something from the other. But then also I am in

252
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 3: a group snapchat with my family, my sisters, my brother

253
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 3: in law, and then my mom, so I feel like

254
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: that's kind of a conversation.

255
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: A lot of times.

256
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 3: And then my mom does send like group chat stuff,

257
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 3: or my sister does of like my niece and nephew.

258
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 3: My dad just doesn't really text, so he's never in

259
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 3: any of that stuff. Yeah, so yeah, it's not very

260
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 3: often with my dad. I feel like I keep up

261
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 3: with my mom a decent amount, but I think I

262
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 3: probably could be better with it.

263
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 4: It was a big day for me yesterday. Speaking of Snapchat,

264
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 4: I deleted it from my phone. Oh wow, well well,

265
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 4: well right now I'm having an issue with my text messages,

266
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 4: like I can't open text message because it says my

267
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 4: storage is out. So I thought, okay, what can I

268
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 4: get rid of what one time I miss? And Snapchat

269
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 4: is the thing I won't miss, So I deleted it.

270
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: I think if I were to go through my phone,

271
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: I could probably delete fifty apps that I just I have.

272
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 3: So much shocked me space for that much. It usually

273
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 3: has one of the phones that has like the biggest million.

274
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: Stories I do, like sixty four gigabytes or something stupid

275
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: like that.

276
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 3: That's literally what I said the last time I went

277
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 3: in to get a new phone, which was like three

278
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 3: three and a half years ago. Now, I was like, hey,

279
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: I do a lot of content on my phone, Like

280
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 3: should I get the one with the biggest gigabytes? And

281
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 3: the woman was like, no, you'll be fine, like whatever.

282
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 3: I shouldn't have listened to her because I'm always having

283
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 3: issues with my phone. Yeah, same with space, and I've

284
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 3: paid for the extra storage, but that doesn't give you

285
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 3: extra storage on your phoney a cloud, yeah exactly.

286
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: She goes on to describe kind of her situation. She says,

287
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: I cannot imagine not reaching out to my kids at

288
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: least once a week when they get older, or insisting

289
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: I get to see my grandkids once in a while.

290
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: And she kind of talked about her story a little bit.

291
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: She says, maybe it's a generational thing. My parents didn't

292
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: come to my sports activities, games, sports activities and games,

293
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 1: and I couldn't imagine not showing up to every event

294
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: of my kids. They're always looking for us in the

295
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 1: crowd want us to chaperone on field trips. It just

296
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: seems important to show up. And she goes on to say, Dave,

297
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: remind your kids how lucky they are to have you.

298
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: That is very sweet. I am never gonna say, by

299
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: the way, Alison, you're very lucky to have me. Hopefully

300
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: at this point she feels lucky to have me. And

301
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 1: it's very sweet because you know, when I get a

302
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: Father's Day card, they'll always be like, you are the

303
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: best father ever. I couldn't have asked for a better father.

304
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: So and that's that's how you know you won when

305
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: they say things like that because they don't have to

306
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: uh do do okay? Follow up to my email from

307
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: another Katie says that chocolate doesn't taste like it used to.

308
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: After I sent that in almost the next day, there

309
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: was a news article about the grandson of the Reese's

310
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: and calling out the chains in formula and fake ingredients,

311
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: resulting in Hershey responding on March thirty, first, they're going

312
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: to go back to the original formula details below. I

313
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: feel vindicated. Yes, Brad Reese, the grandson of the founder,

314
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: is like, it doesn't taste like Hershey's, Like Reese's peanut

315
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: butter cups anymore because it's not peanut butter. It's a

316
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: peanut butter cream. Well, what is peanut butter cream?

317
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 3: I don't know that is?

318
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is it? We know what peanut butter is, but.

319
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: Kind of add more creamy.

320
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was still good, but they're going

321
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: back to regular peanut butter. Okay, let's try this one.

322
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: I have not pre read. It says don't say my name.

323
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: That seems to be going around. I'm writing as a

324
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: longtime listener who truly appreciates the value of the conversations

325
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: you bring to your audience. I appreciate that your show

326
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: leans into humor and candid discussions, but I want to

327
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: share a perspective on your On part of your Monday Show,

328
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: where Bailey express discomfort with couples saying they are quote

329
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: trying to get pregnant, I understand the phrasing can sometimes

330
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: feel overly personal and awkward depending on context. And I

331
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: think of the and you think of them being naked lol. However,

332
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: for many people, including myself, Tho's words carry a much

333
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: deeper and more complex meaning. My journey to becoming a

334
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: parent included struggles with infertility and IVF, and I can

335
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: say firsthand that quote trying to get pregnant is not

336
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: a casual or flippant statement. It often represents hope, heartbreak, resilience,

337
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: and an ongoing emotional and physical challenge. So I'll just

338
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: wrap it up here really quick, she says, I wanted

339
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: to share a personal experience for people to reflect on

340
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: while keeping in mind moving forward. I think Bailey is

341
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: wonderfully funny, smart, insightful, and thoughtful. So no hard feelings

342
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: were just in different stages of life. You guys are

343
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: the best from a listener of over twenty years. And

344
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: remember you don't just dart lick if you want to

345
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: make a baby. Not saying her name. That's going to

346
