It was a radio off quickly? 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.760 Y Yeah, okay, because for a while it was in 0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:04.360 everything and then it like five years ago it started 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:06.680 popping up in everything again, which is really cool, cool 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.480 life of a song to have. So was that the 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:13.120 first single from lit My Own Worst Enemy? 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:14.000 First? 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:15.240 First? 0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.920 That was the first song that went to radio with us. 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:21.360 So the album that was called you know Lit whatever 0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:23.800 that was before A Place in the Sun got it. 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.959 So A Place in the Sun was our first major 0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:26.919 label record. 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:28.200 Yea enemy was on that. 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:30.039 We might have got a little bit of like college 0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:33.800 radio love on the album before A Place in the Sun, 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.199 but yeah, I was it was minor. 0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:37.319 It was like it was building block. 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:40.240 So Lit the record still stayed the name Lit. It 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:41.640 was self titled. Right at that point we. 0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.360 Changed it to Tripping the Light Fantastic. 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.720 Yep, Okay, that's a lot different than Lit. And yeah, 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:48.720 so is that the one though that was heard that 0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:52.200 got you guys the big looks that then created A 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.840 Place in the Sun? Or was it all the music 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:56.680 from A Place in the Sun that somebody heard and 0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:57.600 that really was it? 0:01:57.880 --> 0:01:59.880 Yeah? It was the new batch of songs? 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:01.520 Who hear's those? How does that work? 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:07.040 We had a manager and we we were shopping and 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.520 just getting turned down by everybody, even my owners. Sentiment 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.560 got turned down by everybody, including our CAA who ended 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:14.160 up signing us. 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:15.399 They turned it down the first. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.480 Time, What with what reason? Or did they not even 0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:19.079 give one? All you got back was in it? 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:20.760 I mean back then they would just say we don't 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:22.520 hear a hit, we don't hear a single or whatever. 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.280 And two of the four songs on that demo that 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:27.400 everyone passed on ended up being huge hits. 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.960 So who heard it as it later? Was it somebody 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:31.680 different that worked. 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:33.920 With the radio guy at RCAA Records heard it? 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:39.840 And at the time what was on the radio? Was it? 0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.600 Was it other rock stuff or what? Because my years 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.040 get blittery at this point, was that sound a lot 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.960 different or was that sound just a growth of what 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.640 was already starting to be popular because it was after 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:53.240 the nineties grunge stuff. 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.040 Yep, it was a lot different at the time. It 0:02:56.120 --> 0:03:01.280 was really mixed up and you know, like Blink was 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:03.480 getting big around the same time. We would tour together 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.079 like a warped tour and all that. We were both 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.959 kind of bubbling over. We were sort of the first, 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.440 I guess alternative rock band to start kicking doors open 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:12.680 at like pop radio. 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.160 Was it boy band time? 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:16.120 But then that was pretty huge then too. 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.840 Yeah, yeah, But on alternative radio and rock radio, it 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:20.520 was a lot of you know, it. 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:25.800 Was creed and corn or chili peppers, biscuit biscuit corn. 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:27.480 Those guys wimp Biscuit was coming up. 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.720 Moby Oh yeah, Moby dang mobe in a long time. 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:34.760 I mean that's when Minem was like an alternative Yeah, yeah, 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:35.600 you know why because it was white. 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:36.920 Yeah, crazy, I mean so. 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.280 And I worked in pop radio forever, worked in alternative radio. 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:44.200 So did you guys get we'll say service to alternative 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.760 radio first?

You know, the one everyone's talking about. 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:32.440 Now, the one that all the crap went wrong? Well, 0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:35.839 what was it as bad as the documentary shows. 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:38.720 With what you guys saw, No we saw because there. 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:39.039 Was no water. 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:40.960 I mean from what I saw, it was like everybody 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.279 was like dying of thirst and everything was burning down. 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.200 That wasn't your experience. 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.440 We got in and out first day, so we just 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:50.440 I mean it was it was awesome for us. 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:52.960 We were on tour with Offspring at the time, and 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.160 so both bands played day one and then we kind 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.200 of when all hell broke loose at Woodstock, we were 0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:01.479 already like two shows later, you know, playing amphitheaters. 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:03.080 And in this subject that would have been good for 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:04.719 the documentary. You got the stories kind of fun and boring. 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:05.880 You're like, yeah, we had a great time. 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:06.599 It was awesome. 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.960 I mean, there was a lot of shenanigans going on, 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:11.080 but it was like. 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.640 Yeah, from what the theme of that that documentary was, 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.200 because I remember it part and again, I was a 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:20.599 big alternative kid. I was like country of marketsas so 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:22.599 country music talked about where I was from, but alternative 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.039 music talked about what I felt. And I was the 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.400 first generation of napster so when Napster hit, like I 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.560 would just hit the letter L, download every song on 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:32.560 that started the letter L in every format and just 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:35.520 have the ability. At the time, I thought was my 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:39.080 rightful I deserved every song for free. I mean idiot, 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.000 because we all thought that, or least I thought that. 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:45.719 But you know, it was a a download streaming kid. 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:47.440 It was also a CD kid. 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.440 I was also a tape kid, so I was able 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.640 to have really all of that type of culture. I 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.200 guess the only thing I missed was vinyl. But was 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.599 a big alternative kid. And so when they showed that 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.200 festival and they would the front like all the bands 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:05.599 playing it, it seemed like a pretty aggressive, harder rock 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.800 festival than maybe what the original was. Did you guys 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:10.000 feel that at all? Or was that just the music 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.799 at the time. Was it just like this is ninety 0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:14.880 nine or ninety six, this is just what's popular right 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:16.480 now more than it is we're trying to create some 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.240 rock fest version two. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:19.919 Yeah, it was. 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.120 I feel like a lot of the heavier stuff came 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.560 out at night, but there were some you know, Elvis 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.840 Costell actually played, I didn't get to see him. 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:29.520 Like Jewel played too. 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:31.960 I think there were Noel and like Cheryl Crow and 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:34.000 it was like g Love and Special Saw.

Like even the other day Jake was 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.120 like tickling me or I can't remember, he wasn't tickling 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:53.319 me like he went to grab me for a hug 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:55.240 or something, and she would start barking at him. So 0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:58.199 she's more protective. And I think that's since the pregnancy. 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:00.679 I hear a lot of women and say that that 0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:03.520 they become more protective when they're pregnant, So you're not 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:04.280 the first time, which is. 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:05.760 Kind of the most like beautiful thing. 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:08.640 I love that so much, Like that a dog can 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:10.920 just sense like a new family member. 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:14.079 Yeah, I don't know that, they're just they're so aware. 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:15.760 How do you think she'll do when you bring the 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:16.280 baby home? 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:18.800 So we we always talk about this, like I think 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.120 she loves kids. We have neighbors that have kids, so 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.120 I feel really confident about that. We've also just been 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.560 like we have to make sure we get her attention. Still, yes, 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:30.400 but I think i'd be fine, Like we're gonna do 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:33.199 the whole like let the baby lay in the blanket 0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:36.079 and then let her smell the blanket and then introduce 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:36.640 her to the baby. 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:37.840 But I feel like she'll be totally fine. 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:39.680 Yeah, I think so. I mean, I know her, so 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:41.880 I think so. But I do think that's really important 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:43.640 for listeners out there. If you know you're gonna want 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:47.000 a family. Exposing your dog and getting them desensitized and 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:51.360 socialized with kids is so important because yeah, I mean, 0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:52.960 it's going to be a huge part of your life. 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:56.160 And I will be interested to hear your feedback on 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.040 the age old question of do you love your human 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:02.120 children more than your for children, because I'm convinced I won't. 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:04.800 I mean too that makes me like crying. 0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:06.880 Like I've heard people be like, oh, you won't even 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:07.840 care about your dog anymore? 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:10.600 Yeah, And I'm like that breaks my heart right now. 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:11.640 It's not possible. 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:14.320 It's not I mean, I think you know, we have 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:17.200 enough love to go around, and I'm sure like there 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:19.600 will be times where it's annoying if she's barking, the 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:22.240 baby wakes up or whatever, or like taking her out 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.760 and we're just kind of like swamped be a challenge. 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.559 But I just don't think I could love her, no, 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:29.200 any of us. 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:33.240 No, I don't think so either. So you know, you're 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.000 a musician, you're on tour a lot. Has she gone 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:37.520 on tour with you? And how does she do? 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:41.079 She does so well. I'm like so impressed with her. 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.600 I'm just a proud mom. She does so well, so 0:11:44.640 --> 0:11:47.880 we her big tour was We did like a run 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.760 with Dan and Shay and you know, I feel like those. 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:52.160 Guys are like dog people too, totally. 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.720 So it was amphitheaters and she loved it, and like 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:58.160 everybody loved her backstage and of course, like when the 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:00.920 show's going her sound check, that's like loud and scary 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:02.480 for her, but we would just throw her back on 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:04.280 the bus and she was fine. 0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:06.800 She was totally fine, and she's flown. She's a really 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:07.360 good traveler. 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:09.720 She loves car rides, so I think because we did 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.920 that like very early on in her life that she's pretty. 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:14.120 Used to them. 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.080 She's such a like an entertainer's dog. 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:18.680 She is, Yeah, she is, and she loves music and 0:12:18.720 --> 0:12:21.480 she loves like I mean, she is in Jake studio 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:24.040 with him recording every single day and that's just her life. 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:24.840 She's a studio pup. 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.800 So Max's husband, Jake is also a very talented musician. 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.319 Have either you or Jake written a song about her? 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:36.200 Or we definitely have written like joke songs, Yeah, like 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:37.319 nothing's making my. 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.520 Record like at home that you'll sing to her. 0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:41.120 Yes, she's a theme song. 0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:43.680 Will you maybe give us one little hint of what 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:44.480 that sounds. 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.520 Like do you remember the show Pepraham? 0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:47.440 Yeah? 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:48.760 Do you remember it? 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:49.840 Yeah? 0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:52.760 So her theme song is will Lev will Leby.

But 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.640 your advice to me was, don't rush to the next 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:07.600 season while a really good season is already happening. Don't 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.800 rush to the season of being engaged. Be present, be 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:13.560 where my feet are, and then that will come if 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:16.600 its meant to be in God's timing. And I really 0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:18.520 liked that advice and it made me feel like it 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.760 is okay to take things slow and there's no need 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:21.920 to rush to get engaged. 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:23.400 Or to get married. 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.560 Yeah, well, everybody's on their own timeline. But I was 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.160 just giving you my perspective, even though that's how we 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:31.680 did do things. And I did get engaged my senior year, 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:35.360 and then we got married right after I graduated. I 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:39.280 really realized that I felt like planning for the wedding 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:43.040 and planning for the marriage overlapped with me enjoying the 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:45.880 very end of my senior year of college. And it's 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:49.320 like these two seasons really overlapped. And so I was 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.880 just trying to share my perspective and I liked it. 0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:54.760 No matter what's happening with your friends, you were on 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:58.000 your own timeline, and it's okay to draw things out 0:14:58.040 --> 0:14:59.840 a little longer than maybe other people are. 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:02.520 So Ben, you're Ben. 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:04.600 So I was mind you had been which happened to 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:08.880 be her beIN's bff. But what's the flower story since 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.240 we were talking about flowers earlier. Oh into my head 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.800 about what he did when y'all were in junior high. 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:16.160 Yeah, well, my Ben and I, actually you're beIN and 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:19.040 I too. We all met in middle school youth group 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:23.680 at church. So my Bin, we actually became boyfriend girlfriend 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.440 in middle school and kind of dated a little bit 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:26.080 through high school. 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:27.840 Then we broke up and he dated somebody else for 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:28.400 a long time. 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:30.680 We don't need talk, We don't really need to talk 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:33.280 about all the details of that. But nonetheless, he had 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:35.440 come over to my house. And I was in gymnastics 0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:37.680 and a dancer in high school. So it was like 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:39.680 my freshman year of high school, and I had done 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.040 some performances and sometimes you would get flowers. 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:44.440 People would bring you roses. Oh, good job on your performance. 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:48.760 Well then I would save those roses like that dozen roses, 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:51.760 dry them, hang them upside down, dry them, and then 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:53.760 they'd be sitting around my room really beautiful. 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:55.320 And so Ben comes over. 0:15:55.400 --> 0:16:00.240 He sees, oh, she likes dead flowers, okay, And so 0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:04.120 his stepmom and dad had a recent anniversary. His dad 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:06.960 had given some flowers. The flowers were about to be 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.200 thrown out because they were wilty and gross and ugly, 0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:12.760 and Ben's like, oh no, no, no, don't throw them out. 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:18.320 Christie loves dead flowers. So then he brought me his 0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:25.080 parents old used dying that anniversary flowers because he thought 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.960 I would love them. And so the differences they weren't 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:29.760 the flowers given to me, they were. 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:30.840 Given to somebody else. 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:34.080 So I think that's the sentiment of keeping dried flowers 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.240 is typically that's because they were given to you alive and. 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.200 Beautiful, and then you saved them. 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:40.520 I think it's cute. 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:42.400 That is thirteen or fourteen year old brain. 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:46.760 I thought, Oh, she loves dead Wait a second, Christie 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:48.119 loves dead flowers. 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:51.200 That's a cute story. I love that. 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:56.240 So do you have any thoughts on dating even though 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.840 you haven't dated since your twenties, or what you would 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:02.360 hope that I look for in my next relationship. Not 0:17:02.400 --> 0:17:04.159 the qualities in the person, because I know that you 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:08.560 love my former Bin. Yes we've known him forever, so 0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:11.359 it's not I do about that be very special to me, 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.280 but more so that what you hope for me and 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:18.960 maybe what I look for, like traveling or being spontaneous. 0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:20.200 Spontaneous spin could be that, but. 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:21.359 I'm you know, working on that. 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:25.679 Or are you and Ben looking for pickleball people to 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:27.240 like play with y'all something like that? 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:28.680 Or people to sit around the campfire? 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:30.040 Would you like them? 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:32.240 Him to want to hike in the mountains with us 0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:35.520 and ski, which you know my Bin did all Wait, 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:36.840 why did I get to wait? 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:37.479 No? 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.040 No, I mean, all of those things would be wonderful, 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.359 but I think the main thing I want to see 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.239 is I just want to see you really light up 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:47.800 when you're with them, And I honestly don't care about 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:51.320 anything else.

And I just too want if 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:26.600 I meet somebody, I need to make sure that they'll 0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.680 pour into my kids as well. 0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:29.440 That would be. 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:32.480 Part of you lighting up around them because you're not 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:35.720 having to dim any part of yourself to accommodate. 0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:39.200 And you know, Ben is wonderful. You're Ben is wonderful, You're. 0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:43.199 Been a lot, been, They're all they're just great Ben. No, 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:46.480 But what I was just saying is you you you're 0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:46.800 a Ben. 0:19:48.560 --> 0:19:49.400 You have a hen. 0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:54.119 I know, but weird to now say your beIN or 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:56.119 my bin because he's not my beIN anymore. And he 0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:59.359 probably always say you're been I know which I'm and 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.879 I will refer to him that way sometimes too, and 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:03.440 then I still call him uncle Ben. 0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:07.200 Yeah, and you should. Yeah, he is your own beIN. 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.119 I just think out of respect for how how he's 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.480 progressed in his life right for me to say my 0:20:13.600 --> 0:20:17.959 bin right, it's weird because he's in a relationship. 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:19.040 Which is great. 0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:21.560 You know, you'll both have so much to offer people, 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:25.840 and you as a couple had lost your way with 0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:28.800 each other because of a lot of factors. And so 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:31.160 I really hope it for both of you that as 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:33.720 you move on, because y'all are co parenting, you've got 0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:37.119 these children. Of course, I love him and will always 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:39.760 be family, but I would like to see for both 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.960 of you that spark in whoever your partners are in 0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:43.879 the future. 0:20:44.840 --> 0:20:45.920 We're going to do it live. 0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:52.240 We are the one, two, three sore losers. 0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:54.720 What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most 0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:58.399 about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions, 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:01.080 because I'm pretty much a sports genius. 0:21:01.320 --> 0:21:01.520 Y'all. 0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:02.159 It's Sison. 0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:03.080 I'm from the North. 0:21:03.119 --> 0:21:04.600 I'm an alpha male. I live on the. 0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:06.840 North side of Nashville. With Bayser my wife. We do 0:21:06.920 --> 0:21:10.119 have a farm. It's beautiful, a lot of acreage, no animals, 0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:15.359 a lot of crops hopefully soon corn pumpkins, rye. I 0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:19.359 believe maybe a little fescue to be determined. 0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:23.399 Over to you, coach, And here's a clip from this 0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:25.320 week's episode of The Sore Losers. 0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:29.760 It's like, you deposit, I deposit let's say, last Friday, 0:21:29.880 --> 0:21:32.159 and then it puts the date of this Wednesday, so 0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:33.960 then it looks like I just gambled on Wednesday. And 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:37.240 then Beazer goes, oh, oh, I just saw the checking account. 0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:39.720 Oh you've been gambling. No, I mean actually technically I 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:43.520 deposited a week ago, but the stupid site decides to 0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:46.240 delay it. It takes it from my account immediately. Yeah 0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:48.760 it's small soapbox. But then it puts it that it 0:21:49.359 --> 0:21:52.200 the transaction happened two days ago. Nope, I'm pretty sure 0:21:52.200 --> 0:21:53.359 I haven't bet in like five days. 0:21:53.720 --> 0:21:55.399 Okay, arrest my kids. 0:21:55.440 --> 0:21:57.840 It's sort of like when you charge your credit card 0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:00.760 in the uber. You wrote in the uber on Wednesday 0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:03.679 thank you, and the charge doesn't show up till Friday, 0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:05.560 and it's like, well, why were you taking an uber 0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:07.359 on Friday. No no, no, I took an uber on 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:11.280 Wednesday from the airport, but it doesn't show up till Friday. 0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:13.600 I didn't actually get in the uber on Friday. 0:22:13.880 --> 0:22:14.239 Thank you. 0:22:14.280 --> 0:22:17.280 I rest my case, but not fully. Also, when you 0:22:17.320 --> 0:22:20.800 go to a restaurant or a bar, it puts fifty 0:22:20.800 --> 0:22:23.760 five dollars charge, but it won't put the tip on 0:22:23.840 --> 0:22:27.880 there for four days later. But the tip was factored 0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:31.000 in immediately. Why can I not see that total that 0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:32.880 next morning when I wake up hungover? 0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:37.159 Also question, why does sometimes you look at your bank account, 0:22:37.200 --> 0:22:40.760 it's like, okay, you spent fifty four dollars at this restaurant. 0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:44.560 Then the next line is twelve dollars from that restaurant. 0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:46.879 They don't do it in one transaction. Sometimes they do 0:22:46.920 --> 0:22:49.320 it in two transactions, so they put the tip separately. 0:22:49.840 --> 0:22:50.800 Explain it to me. 0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:52.040 That I can't. 0:22:52.600 --> 0:22:55.600 The other one is, so say we see in the 0:22:55.880 --> 0:22:57.600 this is a pretty close to example. You see in 0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:01.720 the account eight hundred dollars. Baserwell pay a couple of 0:23:01.760 --> 0:23:06.920 things electricity, water, sewage, still says eight hundred dollars. Then 0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:11.480 she'll pay garbage eight hundred dollars. So then I log 0:23:11.520 --> 0:23:15.600 in we've got eight hundred dollars. Oh yeah, I'm gambling, baby. 0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:18.320 Oh no, no, no, no, There's five things I've paid 0:23:18.320 --> 0:23:20.640 for that hasn't gotten removed yet from the checking account. 0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:25.120 So the system in our checking account isn't advanced enough 0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:27.560 the second you pay for something to subtract it from 0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:29.840 that total, so I know the exact amount of money 0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:30.520 in my account. 0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:33.680 They're setting you up to overdraft. I don't know why 0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:34.119 they do that. 0:23:34.240 --> 0:23:37.560 I don't understand because sometimes I'll submit a reimbursement for 0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:41.360 work and I will say, okay, yeah, blah blah blah. 0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:44.160 We went to iHeart and Austin and I'm like, all right, yeah, 0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:46.240 this is the weekend I put the dates were there, 0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:49.280 and then I put my Uber receipt and they're like, 0:23:49.440 --> 0:23:52.080 that is not in the dates that you were there. 0:23:52.200 --> 0:23:55.639 And I'm like, dude, I can't help what the like 0:23:55.720 --> 0:23:58.639 how it comes through the transaction two days later like 0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:02.960 it was obviously in Austin. I live in Nashville. It 0:24:03.080 --> 0:24:06.000 was like, you can tell that I didn't go down 0:24:06.040 --> 0:24:08.120 there for a separate trip like a day later after 0:24:08.160 --> 0:24:08.840 I came back. 0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:10.200 And then I have to fill. 0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:11.960 Out a form that says this is why it says 0:24:12.000 --> 0:24:14.600 that it's like guys common sense. 0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:17.679 And also why to never share an account guys, this 0:24:17.680 --> 0:24:20.480 should be the explanation. So I don't get to see 0:24:20.520 --> 0:24:24.560 the savings account. The account is in both of our names, 0:24:26.160 --> 0:24:31.360 Raymonds Sisson and Laura Sison, and she sees our checking account. 0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:35.600 I see our checking account, she sees our savings account. 0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:39.040 I don't see our savings account. For all I know, 0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:40.639 we don't even have a savings account. 0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:41.240 So when you. 0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:43.639 Log in, the savings account doesn't show up when you 0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:44.120 log in. 0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:46.080 Correct, And we went to the banker and we said, hey, 0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.000 it doesn't show up that I have a savings account. 0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:48.919 I don't know. 0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:52.000 There's some glitch in the system. So you're probably gonna 0:24:52.000 --> 0:24:55.280 have to start a new account. Okay, So then we 0:24:55.320 --> 0:24:59.880 would cancel this entire thing, transfer our small amount of money. 0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:02.760 It probably pretty easy. You can do it in one transaction, 0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:05.200 and then the savings account's got to get transferred over 0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:08.200 all because there's a glitch in the system. To this day, 0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:10.160 I still don't see the savings account. So I send 0:25:10.200 --> 0:25:13.199 her a text, Hey, how's the savings account looking. I 0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:19.000 don't have access to it. I coach technology and sometimes 0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:23.520 there's advancements and sometimes we regress. I'm blown away by 0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:24.000 it right now. 0:25:24.080 --> 0:25:27.200 Takecare, dude. We have a little code box. You type 0:25:27.200 --> 0:25:29.920 in a code. Boom boom boom, check your kid in. 0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:33.040 And we have three kids. Boom boom boom, check them in, 0:25:33.560 --> 0:25:35.280 and when you go to get them out, hit your code. 0:25:35.359 --> 0:25:36.720 Check out, check out, check out. 0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:40.840 About a month ago, I go and I type in 0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:43.400 my code to check them out, and only two of. 0:25:43.320 --> 0:25:46.000 Their names are on there. Thought I had three. 0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:48.720 I said, I don't know if it's a big deal 0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.800 because I figured this is how you keep your numbers. 0:25:51.920 --> 0:25:54.080 But it only has two of my kids here, So 0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:55.760 can I check the third one out? And they're like, yeah, 0:25:55.760 --> 0:25:58.440 it's kind of a glitch. We're working on it. We'll 0:25:58.440 --> 0:26:00.280 get it back up and run out. I'm like, cool, yeah, 0:26:00.280 --> 0:26:03.280 glitches or bitches. Well guess what I went yesterday. It's 0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:05.680 been over a month. I still only got two kids 0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:09.560 on there, so their numbers are off every single day. 0:26:09.800 --> 0:26:11.840 There is no way they know what how many kids 0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:14.840 are at that school. Because one of my kids is 0:26:14.920 --> 0:26:17.439 unaccounted for every time I drop him off at school. 0:26:17.720 --> 0:26:19.919 Well, you just wan up me. That's actually terrifying. But 0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:23.119 if something happens, blame it on a glitch and they're 0:26:23.160 --> 0:26:25.120 just like, oh, we're working on it. Well a month later, 0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:28.960 guess what, we haven't fixed it. Yeah, banker, If my 0:26:29.040 --> 0:26:31.119 wife leaves me and just fy, I have no access 0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:32.520 so I can't even see the savings account. 0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:33.439 It's just a glitch. 0:26:34.080 --> 0:26:37.600 So what happens when my wife runs to Mexico and 0:26:37.680 --> 0:26:39.720 I'm trying to get access to the savings account that 0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:41.760 I don't ever see or it doesn't even exist in 0:26:41.800 --> 0:26:42.280 my account? 0:26:42.400 --> 0:26:43.280 Oh, it's just a glitch. 0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:45.640 Hey, go to the divorce lawyer. So do you guys 0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:47.520 have any accounts? Yeah, we have a savings account. We 0:26:47.520 --> 0:26:49.040 why don't you pull me up the pull. 0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:52.199 That up for me, coach, Sorry sir, Well, actually I. 0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:55.000 Can't pull it up. So you're telling me that she's 0:26:55.040 --> 0:26:57.240 the only one that has access to that account. 0:26:56.920 --> 0:26:58.080 I'm sorry, that's her account. 0:26:58.160 --> 0:27:01.440 Then, yeah, that's bad news. It looks like she's only 0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:03.720 one that can get money from that account. That's gonna 0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:04.760 be hard to prove in court. 0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:08.920 And then don't even get me started on our payment 0:27:09.000 --> 0:27:11.359 system here at work. If you want to log in 0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.720 to see a pay stub, Oh, my god, I've told 0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.200 Laura this course. She goes, She goes, hey, why can't 0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.560 you just pull it up on your phone? You don't understand. 0:27:18.920 --> 0:27:21.440 At work, we have to go through about eight different logins. 0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:23.920 Now they have it on a separate portal. You click 0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:26.879 on that portal, you click five times to finally reveal 0:27:26.960 --> 0:27:30.000 your pay stub, and then it's in Morris code. 0:27:30.119 --> 0:27:37.840 You can't freaking code. I go, hey, regular, pre post update, downsize? 0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:39.880 What held all these categories? 0:27:39.960 --> 0:27:40.360 What are you. 0:27:40.280 --> 0:27:41.080 Getting paid for? 0:27:41.960 --> 0:27:42.160 Ray? 0:27:42.240 --> 0:27:43.360 I also get one. 0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:46.240 Cold no uh endorsement. 0:27:46.760 --> 0:27:48.760 But then they don't tell you which endorsements you're getting 0:27:48.760 --> 0:27:50.080 paid for, so you don't even know if you got 0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:53.160 paid what you're supposed to get paid, because if you're 0:27:53.160 --> 0:27:55.840 doing a commercial for this place or this place, the 0:27:55.880 --> 0:27:57.760 salespeople just put it in there and you don't know. 0:27:57.920 --> 0:28:00.960 Okay, then I get paid all of them. I don't know. 0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:03.280 But then the thing that really got me was a 0:28:03.320 --> 0:28:06.960 separate portal from the portal. So we go into one portal, 0:28:07.040 --> 0:28:09.960 then we have to teleport to another portal, and then 0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:13.639 finally to a third portal to finally once we portalize. 0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:16.200 But if you need something from a year before typically 0:28:16.200 --> 0:28:19.840 from taxes. You then have to de portal to another portal. 0:28:21.040 --> 0:28:25.640 Sometimes technology bends you over, takes a two by four 0:28:25.960 --> 0:28:26.800 and sticks it. 0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:29.879 Rock You want to hear another technology story, And I 0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:30.880 tell her, Honey, I'm sore. 0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:32.440 Why do you think I'm walking weird? 0:28:32.560 --> 0:28:36.480 That two by four didn't feel good. I went to 0:28:36.560 --> 0:28:38.640 a home improvement store the other day. 0:28:38.800 --> 0:28:41.920 Oh, welcome man, happy to do it? How happy and healthy? 0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:43.880 And that's a different store. 0:28:43.960 --> 0:28:45.000 That's that's shuddering. 0:28:45.480 --> 0:28:47.760 Yeah, I saw they're shuddering a lot of locations. That's 0:28:47.840 --> 0:28:50.240 not happy and healthy. That is just depressing and sad. 0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:55.000 And I am looking for this new I need a 0:28:55.040 --> 0:28:57.960 new faucet for the sink. And I find it on 0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:01.760 the website and it says it it's seventy four dollars. 0:29:02.560 --> 0:29:05.120 That's a good price. I find it on the aisle 0:29:05.320 --> 0:29:07.280 r it's made of gold, and it tells you it's 0:29:07.280 --> 0:29:12.800 on aisle five bend ten cool, perfect, go get it there. 0:29:13.440 --> 0:29:14.760 It's one hundred and ten dollars. 0:29:14.760 --> 0:29:15.800 It's a damn good drink. 0:29:16.760 --> 0:29:20.120 And I'm like, well, that doesn't make much sense. So 0:29:20.200 --> 0:29:22.960 I walk up to the customer service desk and I 0:29:23.000 --> 0:29:27.240 mean I literally type in the UPC code off the 0:29:27.320 --> 0:29:30.120 box and it pulls up exactly, so it's the same one. 0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:32.280 I know it's the same one. I do it twice 0:29:32.440 --> 0:29:34.640 to double check my work. And I go up to 0:29:34.680 --> 0:29:37.000 the count and I said, man, I'm a little confused. 0:29:37.560 --> 0:29:41.400 I said, on the website it says it's seventy four dollars. 0:29:42.920 --> 0:29:45.040 Now in the aisle says it's one hundred and ten dollars. 0:29:45.920 --> 0:29:47.040 She goes, let me take a look at that. 0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:47.880 Sure. 0:29:48.120 --> 0:29:50.760 She grabs a box, looks at my phone. She goes 0:29:50.880 --> 0:29:53.239 other different products, and I said said, no, no, no, 0:29:53.280 --> 0:29:55.840 I typed in the UPC code. She goes, no, she 0:29:55.880 --> 0:29:57.920 looks at it. She goes, no, it's definitely a different product. 0:29:58.960 --> 0:30:00.640 This one's different than the one you have on your phone. 0:30:00.640 --> 0:30:03.600 And I said, okay, we'll tell me the difference. She's well, 0:30:03.640 --> 0:30:05.640 I don't know what the difference is, but they're obviously different. 0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:08.440 That was the answer. I mean, I can't tell you 0:30:08.480 --> 0:30:09.640 why they're different, but they're different. 0:30:23.240 --> 0:30:25.240 Hey, it's Mike d And this week a movie Mike's 0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:27.800 Movie Podcast, I shared what I think are the top 0:30:27.880 --> 0:30:30.800 five final lines in film of all time. I did 0:30:30.800 --> 0:30:32.960 my research, so I'm going to share a few picks 0:30:32.960 --> 0:30:34.680 of mine with you here, but be sure to subscribe 0:30:34.680 --> 0:30:37.680 to my podcast to hear this entire episode. Here what 0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:40.320 took the top spots in all the honorable mentions. But 0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:42.920 right now, here's a little bit of movie Mike's movie podcast. 0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:48.000 So at number five from nineteen eighty five, Back to 0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:51.840 the Future, Doc played by Christopher Lloyd, has this final 0:30:51.920 --> 0:30:53.880 line in response to Marty. 0:30:53.920 --> 0:30:55.160 Hey, Doc, we've better back up. 0:30:55.160 --> 0:30:57.000 We don't have enough road to get up to eighty. 0:30:56.800 --> 0:30:58.880 Eight ROAs where we're going. 0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:09.920 We don't need roads. 0:31:05.720 --> 0:31:08.520 To have such an epic movie like Back to the Future, 0:31:08.640 --> 0:31:11.640 you need a great ending, and Back to the Future's 0:31:11.680 --> 0:31:14.960 final line completely nails it and sums up all the 0:31:15.080 --> 0:31:18.440 adventure in this film. I believe Back to the Future 0:31:18.720 --> 0:31:21.360 is a perfect film. I have a lot of movies 0:31:21.400 --> 0:31:23.920 I believe are perfect films for me that I would 0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:26.840 rate a five out of five. But maybe if I 0:31:26.920 --> 0:31:29.160 had to make a list, there are just ten perfect 0:31:29.240 --> 0:31:30.280 films of all time. 0:31:30.640 --> 0:31:31.240 Back to the. 0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:33.080 Future is one of those movies. 0:31:33.360 --> 0:31:36.720 If aliens came down on this planet and had no 0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:39.600 idea what a movie was, I would show them Back 0:31:39.600 --> 0:31:42.560 to the Future because it has action, it has adventure. 0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:45.040 It has sci fi, although if you are showing this 0:31:45.120 --> 0:31:47.440 movie to an alien, they would be like, what is 0:31:47.480 --> 0:31:51.800 this ancient technology? You stupid humans? And then it has romance, 0:31:52.040 --> 0:31:55.200 It has some weirdness between guy and his mom. Yeah, 0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:59.240 it gets into every category you can imagine. I feel 0:31:59.640 --> 0:32:03.840 it is a perfect film and it embodies everything that 0:32:03.920 --> 0:32:07.400 I love about movies. For the most part, when I 0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:09.600 go back and think about this movie, this is always 0:32:09.600 --> 0:32:11.960 the quote that sticks out to me. And while putting 0:32:11.960 --> 0:32:14.440 together this list, I almost forgot that this was the 0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:16.360 fact final scene in the movie. 0:32:16.800 --> 0:32:19.120 What a great quote. That is why back to the 0:32:19.160 --> 0:32:20.880 future Rhodes, We're going. 0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:24.080 We don't need rhads is at number five at number 0:32:24.120 --> 0:32:26.720 four from two thousand and two Spider Man, who was 0:32:26.760 --> 0:32:29.560 played by Toby maguire. He is Peter Parker, he is 0:32:29.640 --> 0:32:32.720 Spider Man, and this is the final line of dialogue 0:32:32.720 --> 0:32:33.560 in that movie. 0:32:33.840 --> 0:32:37.440 Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never 0:32:37.560 --> 0:32:45.240 forget these words. With great power comes great responsibility. This 0:32:45.280 --> 0:32:53.400 is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider Man. 0:32:54.480 --> 0:32:57.040 There are so many reasons why that is such a 0:32:57.080 --> 0:33:00.160 great final line. If you rewatch Spider Man from two 0:33:00.200 --> 0:33:03.240 thousand and two. The movie starts with him saying, who 0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:05.560 am I? Are you sure you want to know? And 0:33:05.600 --> 0:33:08.880 he goes into this little monologue setting up the entire 0:33:08.920 --> 0:33:12.640 story to come, and then it ends with that answering 0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:14.920 that question, stating it again, who am I? 0:33:14.920 --> 0:33:15.160 I am? 0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:15.880 Spider Man? 0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:19.440 I love Out of every superhero, I think he has 0:33:19.520 --> 0:33:23.560 the best hero journey and struggle of what it takes 0:33:23.640 --> 0:33:28.200 to be a superhero, all that he sacrifices of wanting 0:33:28.240 --> 0:33:30.920 to have love in his life, wanting to be with 0:33:31.120 --> 0:33:35.400 MJ but then also knowing his responsibility to the city 0:33:35.440 --> 0:33:38.560 of New York to be that friendly neighborhood Spider Man. 0:33:38.800 --> 0:33:41.360 I think that is such a great struggle. And director 0:33:41.400 --> 0:33:44.680 Sam Raimi did such a fantastic job with the storytelling 0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:47.200 in this movie to bookend it like that, to open 0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:51.120 asking that question and close it up by answering the 0:33:51.200 --> 0:33:55.600 question and then cutting to some great Spider Man swinging footage. 0:33:56.120 --> 0:33:57.200 And then you also. 0:33:57.040 --> 0:34:00.560 Work in one of the most memorable superhero quotes of time, 0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:04.640 one of the best mantras, with great power comes great responsibility, 0:34:04.880 --> 0:34:07.640 which we heard earlier in the movie spoken to him 0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:10.080 by his uncle Ben as he was passing away. So 0:34:10.200 --> 0:34:13.080 to bring that quote into this it is so perfect. 0:34:13.120 --> 0:34:16.640 It tells you exactly who Peter Parker and Spider Man 0:34:16.800 --> 0:34:20.799 is and also is foreshadowing of what's to come in 0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.680 two and how his story will be wrapped up in 0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:26.279 spider Man three. So I think that is such a 0:34:26.280 --> 0:34:28.759 great ending. And you think, with Spider Man being my 0:34:28.760 --> 0:34:31.440 favorite character, that would be number one, but you'd probably 0:34:31.480 --> 0:34:33.640 think that is where I would go, but not putting 0:34:33.640 --> 0:34:34.799 that one at number four. 0:34:35.000 --> 0:34:36.080 At number three. 0:34:35.960 --> 0:34:40.719 From nineteen ninety it is Goodfellas Henry Hill played by 0:34:40.800 --> 0:34:45.000 ray Leota. I just love it when movies and with 0:34:45.120 --> 0:34:48.520 a really big, important monologue, and that is exactly what 0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:53.160 happens in this movie. This is my favorite Martin Scorsese movie. 0:34:53.200 --> 0:34:56.160 It's the movie that turned Rayle Oda into a superstar. 0:34:56.480 --> 0:35:00.319 He played real life goodfella Henry Hill, and this you 0:35:00.400 --> 0:35:03.480 really everything you need to know about this character, who 0:35:03.480 --> 0:35:07.960 throughout the entire movie is doing everything in order not 0:35:08.120 --> 0:35:10.520 to live a normal life. It is what he hates 0:35:10.560 --> 0:35:12.640 the most in life. He doesn't want to wait in 0:35:12.719 --> 0:35:16.560 line like everybody else. He wants the best treatment, he 0:35:16.600 --> 0:35:18.840 wants to eat at the best restaurants, he wants to 0:35:18.840 --> 0:35:21.760 have the money, drive the car, live in the fancy house. 0:35:22.080 --> 0:35:24.640 And the worst thing you could do to a person 0:35:24.760 --> 0:35:27.560 like that is put him into witness protection where he 0:35:27.640 --> 0:35:30.839 has to be just a normal citizen. So I'll get 0:35:30.840 --> 0:35:33.759 into more of why I love this final line, but 0:35:33.880 --> 0:35:35.400 here it is from Goodfellas. 0:35:35.640 --> 0:35:37.880 Right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with 0:35:37.960 --> 0:35:40.440 Marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup. 0:35:41.719 --> 0:35:43.400 An average nobody. 0:35:44.400 --> 0:35:46.560 Get to live the rest of my life like a shnook. 0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:50.040 I love the touch that Scorsese put on the ending 0:35:50.120 --> 0:35:53.239 of this movie when well, first it flashes back to 0:35:53.320 --> 0:35:56.200 some things that happened in the movie. You have Joe 0:35:56.280 --> 0:35:59.239 Peshi shooting a gun at the screen, but right is 0:35:59.320 --> 0:36:03.480 Raliotic closes the door, you hear the sound of a 0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:06.880 jail celle closing. And I think that's such a fine 0:36:06.920 --> 0:36:10.320 little touch to add to this scene, because him going 0:36:10.400 --> 0:36:14.440 back into his house in the suburbs is basically him 0:36:14.440 --> 0:36:17.880 being in prison. Because at the time that this scene happens, 0:36:17.920 --> 0:36:20.960 he rat it on everybody in exchange for not having 0:36:21.000 --> 0:36:23.600 to go to prison, and even though he didn't go 0:36:23.880 --> 0:36:28.320 into a real physical prison, his home has now become 0:36:28.719 --> 0:36:32.000 that exact same thing, and like you said, he wanted 0:36:32.040 --> 0:36:34.719 fancy spaghetti instead he got egg noodles in Ketchup. I 0:36:34.719 --> 0:36:37.440 would always find myself saying that line. And this movie 0:36:37.440 --> 0:36:40.200 also starts with one of the best opening lines of 0:36:40.239 --> 0:36:43.480 all time, which is an episode for another day, but 0:36:43.560 --> 0:36:47.480 it embodies everything I love about a crime movie. The rise, 0:36:47.719 --> 0:36:50.320 Oh and then the fall when they fall so hard 0:36:50.800 --> 0:36:53.080 and you see him just standing there in his robes, 0:36:53.200 --> 0:36:56.719 so defeated. What a great line, What a great delivery 0:36:57.120 --> 0:37:00.680 from Ray Liota rip from nineteen ninety eight, number three. 0:37:00.920 --> 0:37:02.600 I have a good fellas. 0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:12.960 Carl Line. 0:37:13.880 --> 0:37:16.480 She's a queen and talking with a song. 0:37:18.360 --> 0:37:21.759 She's getting really not afraid to fings episode, so just 0:37:21.880 --> 0:37:22.479 let it flow. 0:37:23.000 --> 0:37:27.920 No one can do we quiet, Cary Line, It is 0:37:28.040 --> 0:37:29.440 sounding Caroline. 0:37:31.080 --> 0:37:34.120 Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby. 0:37:34.160 --> 0:37:39.359 And here is a clip from this week's episode. You 0:37:39.480 --> 0:37:42.000 are really wonderful at sharing your story because like you're 0:37:42.280 --> 0:37:44.080 you have such a testimony for your life. But like 0:37:44.120 --> 0:37:46.839 you were married and your wife died four weeks before 0:37:46.840 --> 0:37:49.200 you went on American Idol, How did you must have 0:37:49.239 --> 0:37:50.080 the courage to do that? 0:37:50.360 --> 0:37:52.440 Well, there was a few things because quite honestly, I 0:37:52.440 --> 0:37:56.120 didn't want to go after that. I just when you 0:37:56.200 --> 0:37:59.000 lose someone, you feel like you amputate a part of 0:37:59.000 --> 0:38:01.520 your soul. And I don't know, you know, I know 0:38:01.600 --> 0:38:02.880 that we've all went through losses. 0:38:03.280 --> 0:38:05.760 Their wife. I mean that's like, that's serious. 0:38:05.920 --> 0:38:08.160 And if you think about, like the scriptures talk about that, 0:38:08.239 --> 0:38:12.120 you are one, right, so they're really the amputation felt 0:38:12.160 --> 0:38:14.239 so real. I didn't want to do it. I did 0:38:14.320 --> 0:38:15.520 want to do it because she's the one that got 0:38:15.600 --> 0:38:17.879 me to want to do it. But then the try 0:38:18.040 --> 0:38:18.520 was four. 0:38:18.320 --> 0:38:20.879 Weeks after her being so raw. 0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:23.240 Oh, it was absolutely and it was unexpected. 0:38:23.320 --> 0:38:25.160 Right, she went in for like her heart was beating 0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:27.680 really fast and like she had heart issues, but like 0:38:28.040 --> 0:38:29.600 nobody was expecting it. 0:38:29.680 --> 0:38:33.000 Hurt past her surgery had a ninety percent success rate, 0:38:33.800 --> 0:38:36.200 and I remember saying goodbye to her. 0:38:36.400 --> 0:38:37.800 I went to work that day. 0:38:37.800 --> 0:38:39.520 You thought it was going to be so routine, well 0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:41.280 not routine, but just like I knew. 0:38:41.080 --> 0:38:42.640 It was kind of a big deal because it's a 0:38:42.640 --> 0:38:45.440 heart surgery and it's always a big deal. But I 0:38:45.480 --> 0:38:47.279 didn't want to acknowledge that it was a big deal. 0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:50.200 And plus the doctor gave me enough confidence. I had 0:38:50.200 --> 0:38:52.840 my faith to stand on. You know, I think sometimes 0:38:52.840 --> 0:38:55.279 when we have our faith to stand on, you know, 0:38:55.320 --> 0:38:59.759 we can become oblivious to some situations. That's where I was. 0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:01.440 I mean, I was twenty seven. I didn't want to 0:39:01.480 --> 0:39:04.040 acknowledge that. So I went to work that day. I 0:39:04.040 --> 0:39:10.000 worked at the cheesecake factory, of all places, and I 0:39:10.040 --> 0:39:10.520 could barely. 0:39:10.560 --> 0:39:12.600 I think I was probably the worst server that day. 0:39:12.840 --> 0:39:15.200 Wasn't a good server anyways, you know, I just absent 0:39:15.239 --> 0:39:18.680 minded a lot of my mind and she I got 0:39:18.680 --> 0:39:21.000 the call and I that the surgery didn't go as well, 0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:22.920 went to the hospital, never went back to work again, 0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:24.960 stayed in the hospital. They put on an artificial heart. 0:39:25.040 --> 0:39:27.640 It was like a two week process, and when we 0:39:27.719 --> 0:39:31.759 prayed to all the tears dried up. I mean I 0:39:31.800 --> 0:39:34.280 had no tears left in my body. And she passed 0:39:34.280 --> 0:39:37.680 away unexpectedly. Going on the show for artificial heart put in. 0:39:38.320 --> 0:39:39.879 So what they do is they if your heart stop, 0:39:40.040 --> 0:39:42.680 if it stops working and it's about to lose it, 0:39:42.800 --> 0:39:47.000 to put you on a transplant list. They'll put you 0:39:47.000 --> 0:39:48.759 on an artificial heart, which is this huge machine. I 0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:51.399 forgot what they call it, and it's they put these 0:39:51.840 --> 0:39:54.000 they had these two tubes just in her chest, like 0:39:54.080 --> 0:39:55.640 doing the work of her heart for her. 0:39:56.120 --> 0:39:56.640 I think. 0:39:58.000 --> 0:39:59.840 For her it only works in the hospital. 0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:02.560 You can't like live, could never live with it because 0:40:02.560 --> 0:40:04.160 this is massive. I mean, this is back in two 0:40:04.160 --> 0:40:07.680 thousand and eight, this massive machine, and it's basically pumping 0:40:07.680 --> 0:40:11.480 blood for you. And we won on the artificial we 0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:14.920 went on the transplant list. She never made it, and 0:40:15.120 --> 0:40:17.600 I was absolutely devastated, and it was the last year 0:40:17.640 --> 0:40:19.120 I could go on American automt So now I'm kind 0:40:19.120 --> 0:40:21.440 of answering your question. I went on American out of 0:40:21.520 --> 0:40:25.480 reluctantly because it's four weeks after her passing. Because if 0:40:25.560 --> 0:40:27.560 had I not done it then, and I told her 0:40:27.600 --> 0:40:29.080 I would do it, and she was excited for me 0:40:29.120 --> 0:40:31.240 to do it, then I would have no chance afterwards. 0:40:31.280 --> 0:40:32.799 He had twenty seven was the cutoff. 0:40:32.640 --> 0:40:34.160 Twenty eight, and I was going to turn twenty eight 0:40:34.160 --> 0:40:36.440 the next year, so August two thousand and eight, it 0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:39.000 was actually August eight, two thousand and eight was my 0:40:39.000 --> 0:40:42.480 first trial date. And eight means new beginnings if you 0:40:42.480 --> 0:40:46.440 look it up, like number, like numerology in the Bible anyways, 0:40:46.480 --> 0:40:48.359 and so I was like it kind of meant something 0:40:48.360 --> 0:40:50.279 to me thinking and it was the eighth season of 0:40:50.320 --> 0:40:53.560 American Idol. Like all these things, I just kind of, 0:40:53.960 --> 0:40:56.239 you know, run with day twenty eight. All things work 0:40:56.280 --> 0:40:58.200 together for are good. You know what I'm saying, Like 0:40:58.239 --> 0:41:01.000 things work together. And so I went on the show, 0:41:01.080 --> 0:41:03.160 took third place. But here's a good thing for me. Sorry, 0:41:03.160 --> 0:41:06.479 I'm pointing my finger at you, like listen here right here. 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:12.680 I needed something bigger than me. Yes, yeah, I needed 0:41:12.680 --> 0:41:15.359 a bigger vision because when we go through depression, when 0:41:15.400 --> 0:41:17.640 we go through you know, a loss, when we walk 0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:20.640 through unexpected situations, we're disappointed to a place that almost 0:41:20.640 --> 0:41:22.880 like a root of bitterness is on the inside of us, 0:41:22.880 --> 0:41:25.080 and it's kind of poisoning us because we're just so 0:41:25.640 --> 0:41:28.520 bitter at how life turned out. I needed a bigger vision, 0:41:28.600 --> 0:41:32.760 going to La going on a TV show, sharing my story, 0:41:33.000 --> 0:41:35.879 the possibility of a music career, something I did music. 0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:36.720 I had hope. 0:41:37.080 --> 0:41:39.600 You had hope, and you had a place to put 0:41:39.680 --> 0:41:44.240 your pain that could serve others absolutely and yourself, and honestly, 0:41:44.320 --> 0:41:46.720 talking about stuff helps so much. 0:41:47.520 --> 0:41:50.239 The thing that I think, the more that we can 0:41:50.239 --> 0:41:52.719 forget about ourselves and focus on something else is a 0:41:52.920 --> 0:41:58.080 key to finding happiness, to finding purpose and a reason 0:41:58.120 --> 0:42:00.799 to stay alive, and go on the show with this 0:42:00.880 --> 0:42:03.719 mission of if I share my story, and of course 0:42:03.760 --> 0:42:06.399 I was walking it out, maybe they'll give hope to someone. 0:42:06.480 --> 0:42:08.239 You were just as raw as you could be. 0:42:08.600 --> 0:42:10.839 I mean, one of the someone who met me at 0:42:10.840 --> 0:42:13.319 my concert and said I had the gun out that day. 0:42:14.280 --> 0:42:18.520 She said, my my fiance committed suicide months earlier and 0:42:18.600 --> 0:42:21.040 I just couldn't live anymore. The TV's on in a 0:42:21.040 --> 0:42:24.560 different room. She's in a different with the gun, getting 0:42:24.560 --> 0:42:27.960 ready to commit suicide, and she hears a man crying 0:42:28.000 --> 0:42:28.520 on a TV. 0:42:28.680 --> 0:42:31.359 That that sparked her. It just kind of. 0:42:33.040 --> 0:42:35.160 It was that they were telling my story and it 0:42:35.239 --> 0:42:39.839 asked me questions about it, and she walked out. It's 0:42:39.840 --> 0:42:42.839 just piqued her curiosity for the moment, and she saw 0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:46.080 me share my story and she said from that point, 0:42:46.320 --> 0:42:48.560 she said, if he can make it, I can make it. 0:42:49.600 --> 0:42:55.320 I mean, this is one of many. So forgetting about ourselves. 0:42:55.440 --> 0:42:57.040 You know, what's the one thing in our culture. I 0:42:57.040 --> 0:42:59.479 think that maybe is putting us in a deeper pit. 0:43:00.120 --> 0:43:02.520 I know we are thinking about ourselves too much. 0:43:02.640 --> 0:43:04.680 And our feelings and how we feel about stuff and 0:43:04.680 --> 0:43:05.680 how it affects us. 0:43:05.760 --> 0:43:09.960 The ego and you're you're artist, right you saying country music? 0:43:10.080 --> 0:43:12.040 Yeah, I've been an artist sorts for. 0:43:12.200 --> 0:43:16.359 Yes, we are the top offenders because what do we 0:43:16.400 --> 0:43:17.120 do think about? 0:43:17.480 --> 0:43:19.840 You are your brand, You are your what you're putting 0:43:19.840 --> 0:43:20.719 into the world is you. 0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:23.279 And your art's and entertainment. This is where you are, 0:43:23.320 --> 0:43:24.960 This is where I am. 0:43:25.000 --> 0:43:27.960 We constantly have to be on We constantly have to 0:43:28.800 --> 0:43:31.400 be this thing because we want to keep people's interests. 0:43:31.400 --> 0:43:34.240 Because the moment we lose people's interests is the moment 0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:35.800 that part of our identity goes. 0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:37.600 And it's so and it's. 0:43:37.440 --> 0:43:38.800 Like, do you have value anymore? Or do you have 0:43:38.920 --> 0:43:40.279 earth anymore? Who am I? 0:43:40.760 --> 0:43:43.360 And so we think about ourselves more. 0:43:43.960 --> 0:43:45.359 And then you go into the whole why don't people 0:43:45.400 --> 0:43:46.360 like me? What do I need to do? What do 0:43:46.360 --> 0:43:47.680 I need to change? How do I need to like 0:43:48.160 --> 0:43:51.040 sing a dance to perform for you? So you love Megan? 0:43:51.120 --> 0:43:52.400 Why do you think I dance? And I'm no good 0:43:52.440 --> 0:43:54.399 at it? I'm no good at it? 0:44:05.239 --> 0:44:06.240 Hey, thanks for listening. 0:44:06.480 --> 0:44:08.520 If you heard a clip of something you liked, go 0:44:08.520 --> 0:44:09.800 go check it out, go subscribe. 0:44:09.840 --> 0:44:11.920 That would help us a bunch.
