My 81 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: parents complained the whole time, but at least i'd see 82 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: them in concert. 83 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 3: Oh wow. 84 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 2: On the occasional time where the conversation of the trip 85 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: to Barbados has come up, my mom likes to paint 86 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: herself as a victim after all these years. Could you 87 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: imagine if you'd gone through with it and we'd messed 88 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: out on Barbados, you would have gone with the You 89 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: would have gone with a person's mom instead in us 90 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: her and her stepdad behind. 91 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: I would have never forgiven you if you'd done that. 92 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: Oh my God, with cancer, I know to this day, 93 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: I'm still a huge fan of that band. They were 94 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: on hiatus for a while but came back, and this 95 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: whole situation really sticks in my mind, and especially when 96 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: I see them performing on shows and on their two 97 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: tours they've done post hiatus. Yes, I saw them in 98 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 2: a concert and it was a great time. But I 99 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: could have physically met them and gone to a concert 100 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: through make a wish while traveling to another country. 101 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: Without having to pay out a pocket for the experience. 102 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 3: Amazing. 103 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: And I couldn't do any of this all because my 104 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 2: mom felt entitled to making my wish about her rather 105 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: than the actual recipient of it. I understand that she 106 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: didn't care to meet the band herself, but there could 107 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: have been many opportunities available aside from just doing that. 108 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: I nearly died. It shouldn't have even been a question. 109 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 2: That it was my wish and I should do what 110 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: I want for my wish, especially with the extremely high 111 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: chance of the cancer coming back. 112 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 1: So what do you guys think? Do you think Hope 113 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: is in the wrong ear? Do you think the parents 114 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: are in the wrong ear? 115 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 3: You know who's never in the right Adam Levine?
