How do 3 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: I best describe what a heavyweight short is? 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 2: I think you should just do like a heavyweight short, 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,319 Speaker 2: you say all the things you love about heavyweight, but 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 2: just in a shorter, more digestible format for this fast 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 2: paced world. 8 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: Guess what what you just introduced our heavyweight short. 9 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 3: Oh? 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: Okay, Today's heavyweight short Cody. Right after the break, Cody 11 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: describes his mom, Paula as Cudley. Some of his earliest 12 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: memories are of the two of them just snuggling, just. 13 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 3: Like her laying on the couch and me being small 14 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 3: enough at the time where she had her like her 15 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: legs crolled, you know, and you could almost hide behind 16 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 3: her legs in the couch and make a little ford. 17 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: Paula provided Cody with comfort even when she wasn't around. 18 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: When he was five, she sewed him a blanket stitched 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: with cartoon bunnies, which Cody took everywhere, and when he 20 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 1: grew too old for carrying around a blanket, he still 21 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: slept with it at night. In the summer before Cody's 22 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: freshman year, Paula went in for knee surgery. She suffered 23 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: from arthritis, and over the years the pain had only 24 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: grown worse. Cody's understanding was that the operation was all 25 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: very routine, but on the morning of the surgery, Cody 26 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: remembers being asleep under the bunny blanket when he was 27 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: awoken by his sister. We need to go to the 28 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: hospital right away, she said. It seems that post surgery, 29 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: a blood clot had moved up to Paula's lung. While 30 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: walking down the hospital hallway, she suddenly collapsed. 31 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: We drove to the hospital and you know, like when 32 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 3: we were able to just walk in the room and 33 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 3: my sister and you could just tell from just how 34 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 3: everybody was positioned, just she's dead. And then I just 35 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 3: sat down next to my grandpa. I don't think it 36 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 3: fully hit me. I just remember just just staring and 37 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 3: just sitting and not knowing what to feel. 38 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: Her death was so sudden that nobody in the family 39 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: knew what to feel. At the funeral home, Cody placed 40 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: the bunny blanket in Paula's coffin. The person who had 41 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: always been there to hold Cody and provide him with 42 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: solace during hard times was the person who is now gone. 43 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: As for the rest of the family, rather than joining together, 44 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: they withdrew from one another. His two older sisters and 45 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: his brothers spent most of their time alone in their rooms, 46 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: and their father, who'd been in poor health for years, 47 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: no longer had Paula to look after him. He had 48 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: to be moved into a nursing home. The family was 49 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: falling apart. 50 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 3: My mom was the glue. It's like when she died, 51 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 3: it just we always just kind of drifted in our 52 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: own directions. Yeah, we just didn't know how to talk 53 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: to each other. So I kind of just receded into 54 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 3: my own little my own little room, and did my own, 55 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: my own thing. Just wanted to just be left alone. 56 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: Paula was buried in the cemetery across the street from 57 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: Cody's house. The grave became the place where Cody went 58 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: when he needed to unburden himself. Saying things in his 59 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: head wasn't as good as talking out loud, but talking 60 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: out loud in his bedroom and the rest of the 61 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: family could hear, so he'd walk across the street and 62 00:03:51,320 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: talk to a tombstone. Although still in a state of grief, 63 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: Cody tried to return to normal life. This meant pre 64 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: season football practice, running drills, doing laps, and lifting weights. 65 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: It was while training in the high school's Dingy weight 66 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: room one day that his new coach, Coach Walling, has 67 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: to see him. Coach Walling was like a coach out 68 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: of Central Casting, tall and athletic. He always wore shorts, 69 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: even in the dead of winter. It was Cody's first 70 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: year on the team and he hadn't interacted with Coach 71 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: Walling much at all, so when he asked Cody to 72 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: step out into the hall, Cody's first thought was that 73 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: he was somehow in trouble. 74 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: And I remember walking out and I don't know if 75 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 3: he had said anything or there was a lead in. 76 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: I don't think there was. But the thing that I 77 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 3: remember was just him reaching out and just hugging me 78 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 3: so just so tightly. You know how when you go 79 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 3: for a hug you can do the up dat like 80 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 3: one arm up, one lower. I didn't have that chance, 81 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 3: like he just hugged me. 82 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: Since his mother's death, no one had done just that. 83 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: Cody's family and friends weren't really the hugging type. There 84 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: might have been a couple of polite hugs, some perfunctory hugs, 85 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: but Coach Walling, basically a stranger, was hugging Cody with 86 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: what felt like all his heart. 87 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 3: He held me for a few moments. I remember it 88 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 3: so strongly. I get kind of teary eyed just thinking 89 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: about it, just because it was just something I just 90 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 3: I really needed without knowing it, and I just it 91 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 3: was just something that I needed. It felt caring. 92 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: Shortly after the day of the hug, Coach Walling took 93 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: a job at another school and Cody never saw him again, 94 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: but the moment remained with Cody. From then on, Cody 95 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: started hugging all the time. He became the guy who'd 96 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: hugs friends when they were having a bad day. 97 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 3: And like even now with my wife, I just want 98 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 3: hugs more than anything from her. Like I came home, 99 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: I want to hug before I go to bed, I 100 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: want to hug. And she didn't understand it, and so 101 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 3: actually I had told her this story, and she's like, 102 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 3: that makes sense. Why you want to hug all the time, 103 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 3: Like there's a you know, there's always a few things 104 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 3: you always remember in your life. You know, your your 105 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 3: your kid being born, your marriage, and then for me, 106 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 3: it's that hug. He's going to be included Holy how God. 107 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 3: I wish I could find him and just thank him, 108 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 3: let him know that it mattered. 109 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: After doing some digging, I found out that coach Walling 110 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: is John Walling. He recently retired after thirty six years 111 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: of coaching. I tell Cody I was able to track 112 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: him down. Oh okay, I have his phone number and 113 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: we can give him a call right now. 114 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 3: Would it be okay if we rescheduled for that. I 115 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 3: actually have to be in bed and a half hour 116 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 3: so I can make my time tomorrow. 117 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: Cody's a truck driver and a shift begins at two 118 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: thirty am. I understand why he would want to call 119 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: it a night, but as we continue to talk, it 120 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: feels like something else is at play. 121 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: No, im not like I do, I really do, but no, 122 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 3: that's amazing, Like I'm that give me just one second. 123 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, of course, of course, take what you need? 124 00:07:53,280 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: Thank you?

We 127 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 3: can do it. 128 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: You want to do it? Yeah, okay, let's do it. 129 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 3: It's uh, it's John. Right before I don't. 130 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's yeah, it's John. It's John Walling. Yeah. 131 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: I guess I'll say hi first. 132 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 3: Okay, Hello, this is John. 133 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Hi John, This is Jonathan Goldstein. 134 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: Oh, Hello, how are you. 135 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: I'd let John know I'd be phoning with a student 136 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: of his name, Cody from sixteen years ago. Oh, but 137 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: hadn't said much more than that. I have someone here 138 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: who is wanting to talk to you. 139 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 3: Hi, Hi, John, Hey, what's going on? Hey? Been been 140 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 3: a crazy life. Have a little farm that we live on. 141 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 3: We're up in Marshalltown. 142 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 4: My dad lived in Marshalltown. His claim to fame is 143 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 4: that he was the longest baby born in Marshalltown. 144 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: With the pleasantries and the my dad was a longer 145 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: baby than your dad, macho male bonding out of the way. 146 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: I asked John if he remembers Cody. 147 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: I do, I do. So. Do you remember that that 148 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: summer in the in the weight room, my uh my 149 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 3: mom had passed away, and I remember you reaching out 150 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 3: and just and just give me the this biggest, this 151 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 3: long heartfelt hug, and it meant It's just been following 152 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 3: me for years and years and years now, and I've 153 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: been wanting to thank you for it for the longest time, 154 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 3: because it just meant so much to me. 155 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: When two people overlap in time and space, there's never 156 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: any guarantee that what one person experienced as a special 157 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: moment isn't for the other person just to BLib something 158 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: they sort of remember or want to remember out of 159 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: politeness or kindness. But today this isn't the case. 160 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 3: I do remember that, and I'm sorry. 161 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 4: I remember that very, very vividly what I had lost 162 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 4: my mom in nineteen ninety seven, and so it was 163 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 4: those emotions were still raw and real, and I'm not 164 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 4: sure they ever heal. 165 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: So when coach Walling heard about the boy on the 166 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 1: football team whose mom also died, he felt compelled to 167 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: say or do something.
