1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Scrubbing In with Becca Tilly and Tanya Ren and I 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: Heart Radio podcast. Hello everybody, we are scrubbing in scrubbing 3 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: in on a Tuesday. You will notice it is not 4 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: Monday but Tuesday. It is in fact Tuesday. And I 5 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: feel like we haven't done a podcast together in a 6 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: minute because I think the last time we did your 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: skin like so beautiful. Thank you for saying that. I 8 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: have been dying to get a facial for months and 9 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: I finally got one, and she just does things to 10 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: my skin that like no one else has ever been 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: able to do. She just like cleans me out. It's 12 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 1: like a colonic for my face. Yeah, I love that 13 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: for that, I guess um. But yeah, honestly, the last 14 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: time we did our yeah, because you weren't feeling well 15 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: or something. Was that it no, no, no, sorry. I 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: had Caitlin Bristow's podcast. I was on off the vine 17 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: immediately after, so I think I was like, I'm just 18 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: gonna do it from here. But little did I know 19 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: we would be separated for a week so long. I know, 20 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: I feel like I haven't seen each other. There's a 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: lot to cover, and we have to get into the 22 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: amazing race and what's going on with that? We need 23 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: to get into the summer. I turned pretty because we 24 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: have heated heated uh sides on that Mark's birthdays tomorrow. 25 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: There's it's just like a lot happening. There's a lot 26 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: going on. Where do we begin? Should we start with 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: the summer? I turn pretty well. Maybe I could get 28 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: into that after the break because I feel as though 29 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: we just have some housekeeping. So the reason why we 30 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: didn't do a podcast yesterday is because Becca went to 31 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: this movie premiere and she invited Sonny and myself to 32 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: be her guest. And in Becca fashion, I love you 33 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: so much. Detail is not so good. Becca is not 34 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: so good with the details. So she's like, oh, that's 35 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: gonna be Monday afternoon. It will be around one. I 36 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: was like, perfect, this is perfect, you know because I 37 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: normally can get to the podcast by noon on Mondays. 38 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: I need to pull up thet I got the details 39 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: the night before, and I was like, I'll never make 40 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: it because I don't finish with Ryan Todada. I can't 41 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: go go buy and pick up my dog anyway. Long 42 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: story short, Sunny and I couldn't make it. And let 43 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: me tell you, I haven't heard the end of it 44 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: from Sunny, she is pissed. She's not talking to me 45 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: right now. She was really excited about her Red carpet debut. 46 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: She was looking forward to it, and she was like, Mom, 47 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: this was my big break and you ruined it for me. 48 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: You need to really like look at your priorities. So 49 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: you know, I'm taking a hard look. So what actually 50 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: happened is that I invited her and I said it's 51 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: at twelve. I said it's at noon. There was no 52 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: one o'clock, there was no vague afternoon. I have the 53 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: text right here, it's at twelve noon in Westwood, So 54 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: details are right clear. Hold on, but in now, and 55 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: like when premieres happened, you say noon, that's like the carpet. 56 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: So the carpet usually goes on for like an hour 57 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: before the event. So and in my mind, so this 58 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: is not your fault. In my mind, I'm thinking we'll 59 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: show up at noon for the carpet and then the 60 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: movie starts, probably like one or one thirty. Well, so 61 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: I get the details of like arrival time because because 62 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: they were everyone was allowed to bring their dogs. Obviously 63 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: this was a different type of premiere and they were 64 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: a little more, you know, details that we had to 65 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: sort out, and timing needed to be precise because they 66 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: were walking the dogs on the carpet. It was hilarious, 67 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: and so I sent in her my little spreadsheet I 68 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: got when I got it and was like, here, I 69 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: have to be there. My call time for Phoebe is 70 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: at eleven ten, so it's early, and she's like, there's 71 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: no way I'll make it. I'm like, sorry about that 72 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: movie starts at twelve. I'm just kidding. I'm just passing 73 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: along what I have. So she, you know, ends up 74 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: saying she's not gonna be able to go. So we 75 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: end up going to the premiere and it is hilarious. 76 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: Like so the movie was um, Paus of Fury. I 77 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: thought it was Paulsive Fury, which paulsi Fury and Um. 78 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: They put all the dogs in like a black suv 79 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: and then drove around like made the looper on the 80 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: parking lot and then let them get out, and they 81 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: hired people to be like cheering papara toe on the carpet. 82 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: And it was the funniest thing because Phoebe had on 83 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: a dress, which she never wears clothes. I was shocked. 84 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: She wore clothes, and she was like going up to 85 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: the people acting like they were her fans, like like 86 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: going up and letting them pet her as if she 87 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: were an actor, like touching their hands. Do you understand, 88 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: Like nothing makes me happier than stuff like this, Like 89 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: I like, I would have been thriving at this place. 90 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, she would have been like it it 91 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: was made for you. And I know as a stage mall, 92 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: I know. No, Well, we only saw one get out 93 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: before before us, because Ali ended up coming in her 94 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: dog Brooks. He wore a little Hawaiian shirt and and 95 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: so there was this dog. You know, I can't I 96 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: don't know that the actual title of the dog, but 97 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: the mop looking dogs. You know, he got out before us, 98 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: and he could tell he had been in the business 99 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: for a minute. He went straight to the carpet was 100 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: you know he was. I know, Sonny would have just 101 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: been totally in her element, Like I missed. Need to 102 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: prioritize pitch. We'll pitch Sonny for other dog movies. But um, 103 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: when we went into the theater, like we went into 104 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: the theater and all that there was like so many 105 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: people with their dogs. It was really cute. It was 106 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: a really funny event. I'm genuinely sad that you missed it. 107 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,119 Speaker 1: I'm genuinely sad too. Um So that was really fun 108 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: and some other over the weekend. This might be a 109 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: bigger topic. I don't know, Maybe we can get into it. 110 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: But Haley and I watched her three year old niece 111 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: like like, her parents went out of town and we 112 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: were the parents for three days. My god parents so 113 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: much respect. I realized so much about myself, and I 114 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: think Hayley did too. But I I love kids, like 115 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: I'm very naturally drawn to kids. I'm very good with kids. 116 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: I love I love babies. But I realized the really 117 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: crucial part is being able to give them back, you know, yeah, 118 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: like not having to deal with like the not so 119 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: fun parts, like the crying and the like going potty 120 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: and all those things. I realized I took a deep, 121 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: deep look into my soul and my desires and and 122 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: what I always thought I wanted versus what I thought 123 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: what I'm supposed to do according to like society's like 124 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: next steps or whatever. A lot of people are having 125 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: this epiphany. I literally was just talking about it, really yeah. 126 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: I think I was talking to Mark about it. Yes, 127 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: we had a good discussion this morning because Tany has 128 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: a birthday coming up soon and it's milestone ish. Yeah, 129 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: it's not milestone, but it's like thirty five. Thirty five 130 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: is not thirty four, you know what I mean. It's 131 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: just not. It's just not. It's just not. And so 132 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: it's making me like, really take this hard, look at 133 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: you know what I want. I always thought I wanted 134 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: like a boatload of kids, and now you know what 135 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Like, I'm I'm getting older, Like you know, 136 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: Mom's back is hurting. Yeah, also my back is hurting 137 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: too at thirty five, Like what's gonna happen at forty 138 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: five and fifty five? You know, like I gotta pick 139 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: these kids. You're you're sure you want kids one day? Yeah, 140 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: I definitely want like at least a kid, I think, 141 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: which is a big change because you used to be 142 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: like you want four kids and it all planned out. Not. Yeah, 143 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: but I was also like gonna get married at twenty three, 144 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, knocked up at twenty four, knocked out. Well, 145 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: but here's okay. This was the conversation and really romantic 146 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: in that way. This is the conversation Haley and I 147 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: were having. Why do people where I guess my thought 148 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: process and I am not I know this is a 149 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: very sensitive topic. And this is a very sensitive topic 150 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: for both people who maybe our parents and also for 151 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: people who want to be parents. And maybe it's been 152 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: hard to conceive. So I don't want to be insensitive, 153 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: but I'm asking this from a perspective of someone in 154 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: my position, What are the prose of having a child? 155 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: Like what makes you? Why do you want a child? 156 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: Because I'm very nurturing, Like, imagine you know how I 157 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: am a Sonny I can't imagine, Like I love her 158 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: so much and she feels like she literally makes my 159 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: day so like she makes my life so full of love. 160 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: Could you imagine a child your own flesh and blood? 161 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: Like do you know how much joy that's gonna bring you? 162 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: You're not going to even think about the like sleeplessness 163 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: and the like running around. I don't think that's I 164 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: think that's a very romanticized view of the situation. You think, 165 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: so I do because and this is what I'm I 166 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: was telling Haley this because she goes. I just don't 167 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: know if anyone genuinely enjoys being a parent. I don't 168 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: know I disagree with that because, like Haley, I gave 169 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: her the example she loves to work like she loves working, 170 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: you know, if she didn't have a girlfriend who needed 171 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: attention like she would through the long days. But there 172 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: are people who just love being a parent and love 173 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 1: doing the things that you do as a parent, the good, 174 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: the bad, the ugly, all of it. But what I'm 175 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: realizing is people are finally being honest about like, of 176 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: course I have immeasurable joy with this child, and also 177 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: it's really really hard, and it's really challenging, and there 178 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: are times where I miss my old life. I miss 179 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: like the sleep and the freedom and doing whatever I want. Mark, 180 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: you can weigh in here as you are the only 181 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: person in this group that has children. But I am 182 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: curious what what are you stand on that. I mean, 183 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: my kids are sixteen and thirteen, so I mean teenagers, 184 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: home stretch, all that stuff. Um, I think that I 185 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: don't love every element of it, but I wouldn't trade 186 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: it for anything. My life before kids, I don't really remember. 187 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: I don't know what I did with all that time, right, 188 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: I don't really I have a hard time remembering what 189 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: my day to day was before I had kids, that's 190 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: how much of a dad I am. Um. But I 191 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: wouldn't I wouldn't want to go back to that, and 192 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: I'm not looking forward to going back to that when 193 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: they're off in the world. I don't know how to 194 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: describe it. I don't know how to describe the joy 195 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: of it. But the joy definitely outweighs the downsides. Yeah, 196 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: I think so too. And you know what's funny. I 197 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: was so we were working on our July goals and 198 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: one of my July goals was to work out three 199 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: times a week. And I was sitting there and I 200 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: was reading it. I was like, isn't this so crazy 201 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: that that my goal is to work out three times 202 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: a week? I used to work out seven days a week, 203 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: for one hour, every single day, seven days a week 204 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: for years. Like this wasn't just like a flash in 205 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: the pan. This was like my life, like a like 206 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: a you know, you know, clicking an outcow and uh 207 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: and Red Star was just like, yeah, you know, but 208 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: now you have a relationship, you have you know, I 209 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: have his two kids and I have a dog, and 210 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: it's a whole different there's a whole different set of 211 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: responsibilities that come with that you know what I mean, 212 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: and you don't think about it. You don't realize what's 213 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: happening until you're like in it and you're like, WHOA, 214 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: I can't believe I used to like work out a 215 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: full hour every single day, seven days a week without 216 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: a break. Yeah, so you're saying like once you have. 217 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 1: And also I will say, I know it's different when 218 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: it's your own child, Like I I know that there's 219 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: like I don't really like dealing with other people's dogs, 220 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: but I'll do anything for Phoebe. So like, I to 221 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: a degree understand that that um thought process of everyone 222 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: says that, like, it's so different when it's your child. 223 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: I agree, But what you're saying is like, and what 224 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: Mark saying is, once you get to a certain point, 225 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: you can't remember life the life that you had before then, 226 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: and you wouldn't necessarily want to go back. It's just different. 227 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: But I do think it's better, not well it was 228 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: better worse, but waiting, I'm like, I'm so glad that 229 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: I that when I thought I wanted to have kids 230 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: and I didn't, because I know myself so much better 231 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: now and I feel like I've lived so much life 232 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: and um, I just think I'm going to be a 233 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: better parent altogether now than I would at Yeah, for 234 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 1: me personally, yeah, I think you haven't gone through it. 235 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: It prevents me from judging anybody because there is enough 236 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: downside that if somebody says I'm not sure I'm into that, 237 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: I'd be like, yeah, okay, cool, you know, like it's 238 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: not for everybody. Parenthood and and and a parenthood. And 239 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: I probably before we had kids, I would have been like, 240 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: what what you don't want to what? What's the purpose 241 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: of being here? What are you gonna do with the 242 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: rest of Like what? That's that was my mindset before 243 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: a Now that I had kids, I'm like, yeah, it's 244 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: great and I love it. But if somebody doesn't want 245 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: to do it, cool, you know, whatever you want to do. See, 246 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. And I also think I used to 247 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: have that mentality to like, why wouldn't you want to 248 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: have kids? Like what's the purpose of life without having 249 00:12:54,400 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: children creating humans that are uh, contributing to the society. 250 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: But um, the one thing I will say is that 251 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: Haley and I were an amazing team. So if it 252 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 1: ever came to making that decision, we became closer as 253 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: opposed to like butting heads, which I was surprised. I 254 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: was surprised by that because I wasn't sure like how 255 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: even just how we are like navigating Phoebe sometimes I'm 256 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: like mm hmm. But she was a lot more patient 257 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: in areas that I'm not, um, And then I was 258 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: a lot more of the disciplinary and than she Like 259 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: she got worked, she got taken advantage of, and I 260 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: finally was like, Haley, tell her no, and she was like, 261 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: I know, I'm scared of her. I was like, let 262 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: her cry the tantrum last thirty seconds and she's onto 263 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: the next thing, Like it's that easy. Um. So to 264 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: all the parents out there, you have my utmost respectum. 265 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: And to the people who are also questioning it, I'm 266 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 1: right there, Eastern, I'm right there on you know, Yeah, 267 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: life is a non breeder is pretty great. Yeah, but 268 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: it's such like it's such a mind trip, because like 269 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: I was saying, I don't know if I when I 270 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: was talking to you, when I got my eggs checked, 271 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: they were basically like, okay, so yeah, you're, you know, 272 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: pretty fertile. If you want to have a kid by 273 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: thirty seven, naturally you should be good and then but 274 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: he was like, but if if you don't, then I 275 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: would look at freezing your eggs thirty five. And now 276 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I've been now thirty five, so do 277 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: I freeze my eggs? And then I'm thinking do I 278 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: want to freeze my egg I don't really want to 279 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: do it? Like then am I going to regret if 280 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: I don't do it? So I'm like, my whole life 281 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: right now is focused on thinking about the future and 282 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: not living in the present. So I'm like taking away 283 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: my joy of my day being so preoccupied with the 284 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: future when I need to just like chill and you 285 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: have a whole year of thirty five. You didn't say 286 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: right when you thirty five? You know what I'm saying 287 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: pretty geriatric? Yeah, that they are pretty dramatic. The way 288 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: that like, that's that's the part that sucks for women 289 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: is that you are on a time like just you 290 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: are on a time crunch that you don't have control over. 291 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: You know, like that's stressful and there is that that 292 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: element that makes it a little more puts a little 293 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: more pressure on the situation. But um, yeah, wow, what 294 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: a what I would ride? Becca had a ride. I 295 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: also realized like cleaning up pe and stuff. I was 296 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: just like, oh, and I know, yeah, she's like, well, 297 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: she was actually really good about like potty training, but 298 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: she has a little you know, they have like little 299 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: toilets and you have to like they be it and 300 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: then you pour it out just like you know kids stuff. 301 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: But um, but then there's like and then there was 302 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: moments where she was napping and then as soon as 303 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: on the monitor she was awake. I was so excited 304 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: to go and get her and be like good morning, 305 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: you know, say hey to her. So I I get 306 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: the like ebb and flow of I got a tiny 307 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: glimpse into the ebb and flow of parents. You know 308 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: who posted something very like I thought it to be 309 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: so pre found and it's like not profound at all, 310 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: but hold on. Sometimes the most profound it's the most simple. 311 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: Shane Mitchell posted this, and I found it to be amazing. 312 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: She said life is amazing, and then it's awful, and 313 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and 314 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: the awful, it's ordinary and mundane and routine. Breath then 315 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: the amazing. Hold on through the awful and relax an 316 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: exhale during the ordinary that's just living, heartbreaking, soul, healing, amazing, awful, 317 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: ordinary life, and it's breathtakingly beautiful. Why didn't you like it? 318 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: And I thought I thought I did. I don't know. 319 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: She didn't like it, I didn't like Yeah, Yeah, it's true. 320 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: I mean I think if everything was just always blissfully amazing, 321 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: we would never appreciate it, And if everything was horrible, 322 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: we want it. What's the point. Yeah, that's a good quote. 323 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: And also when things are mundane, it's to notice the 324 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: amazing things in life. A sunset or a hug from 325 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: your kid or whatever it is, there's stuff within them 326 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: in vane that you can really get great joy out of. Yeah. Oh, 327 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: and the other thing that we talked about was like 328 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: I was saying, maybe if if my life had gone 329 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: in a different direction, and maybe if I didn't have 330 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: the you know, ability and financial freedom to travel and 331 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: to do things and to experience things, maybe that life 332 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: of like have being a mom would would appeal to 333 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,959 Speaker 1: me more. But I think in my life I'm just 334 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 1: too selfish. Like I love being able to sleep in 335 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: and I love having my own schedule and being able 336 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: to travel whenever I want to. So I think it's 337 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: just like maybe if my life had looked different, my 338 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 1: desires would would be different at this point. But it 339 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: was fascinating, it was like interesting and um, it was 340 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: very introspective in a really hilarious way. Like there were 341 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: some really funny moments and we were like, that would 342 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: be a great TV show to watch, just like people 343 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: who were on the fence watching a kid in their 344 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: life for a weekend and like panning back and forth 345 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: to the parents on vacation. Not that they can change 346 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: their life because they have a child, but good stuff, 347 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: good stuff. So, speaking of TV shows, Yeah, we're gonna 348 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: come right back and we're gonna get into the great debate. 349 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: Great teaser, Tanya. You know Tanya, she's a teaser, sharp 350 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: as attack, and we'll be right back. Okay, we are back. 351 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: And so Tanya, what was the thing with the amazing right? 352 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they posted like that there was casting. A 353 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: scrawber posted that they were casting. So I reposted it 354 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: and then like, uh, I posted Becca and Red Stars 355 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: responses on my Instagram story. CBS like reposted it and 356 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: then they tagged amazing race. So I feel like this 357 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: has legs and I don't know when to say like, 358 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: let's go. I love this. It's exciting, and I I feel 359 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: like they'd be silly not to take former Bachelor contestant 360 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: Beckett Tilly and best friend's boyfriend along on the amazing race. 361 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: It's a great pairing, it's a great storyline. It's a 362 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: great storyline. And even better storyline would be like would 363 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: it be comical to be you and Robbie versus me 364 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: and Haley? No? I want nothing to do with this 365 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: great this race, this great, this is a great race. 366 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: I don't I don't want anybody yelling at me to 367 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: get into an airplane. I don't want anybody yelling at 368 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: me because I don't know my northeast, south and west. 369 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: Like I am going to be a better cheerleader from 370 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: the seats, so I'm gonna cheer on. If you want 371 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: to be Haley's partner, you can be Haley's partner. If 372 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: you don't want red Star, that's fine. But I can't. 373 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: I can't go in. But it's just not me. This 374 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: is a This is how I feel too, Like if 375 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: Haley I could do it well and I knew that 376 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: we I just know myself. I am so competitive. I 377 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: feel like Robbie and I could literally scream at each 378 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: other and there will just be no like like maybe 379 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: I'd be like, don't even look at me tonight, and 380 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: then the next day and be like, hey, we're ready 381 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: to go. But that's the thing like I couldn't handle. 382 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: I know. I wouldn't be able to do that with Haley, 383 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't be able to just like get over 384 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: if she yelled at me, or she wouldn't be able 385 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: to get over if I yelled at her. I would 386 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: hate it. But I think I think Robbie and I 387 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: could could fight and do well do people fight on 388 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: that show? It's so good, It's so high, it's so 389 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: high stress. And the thing I would be most stressed 390 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: about is not having like consistent showers like that really 391 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: stresses me out and sleep. But otherwise, yeah, that's I 392 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: think there's a lot more downtime than you think, you know, 393 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: because they showed those air airplane rights. They look like 394 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: they're about ten seconds long, and they're like twelve hours. 395 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: You know, I think there's more. You'll get more sleep 396 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: than you expect, That's what I would guess. Yeah, but 397 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: I can't. I don't sleep on planes. Well, that could 398 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: be a problem. For saying I think that you all 399 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: leave at the same time in the morning, So I 400 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 1: think if you get there, and I'm not sure exactly 401 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: I haven't Washington peers, but I think there's more downtime 402 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: than you think. I need to talk to someone who's 403 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: been on the show and get like the inside scoop 404 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: on what it's really like to see if if this 405 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: is something that I because nothing would destroy my confidence 406 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: and ego more than being the first to go home. Still, 407 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: I think you should go in blind. Honestly, I think 408 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: you and Robbie should just do it. Like I'm so 409 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: down to be your biggest cheerleader, Like I will make 410 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: shirts team whatever we come up with a team name. 411 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: I will like cold call people if you need votes, 412 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: like I don't know what there's no killing, but like 413 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: I will be your number one cheerleader. I'm gonna steer 414 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: the ship. I just I don't know when to start steering, 415 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: Like I need somebody to be like, let's go. Wait. Also, 416 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: if there was voting, though, I do feel like we 417 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: could really win because when I know the scrubbers could 418 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: do that, there's no voting, Well, it's just us performing really, 419 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: so so if anybody works at casting for Amazing Race, 420 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: send me a d M and tell me how I 421 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: should do this the best way. What do you have 422 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: to do? Do you have to submit a video? Now? 423 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: How does it work? No clue, I don't I don't 424 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: really know. Well, I think all those shows are kind 425 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: of the same, like just different. There's different avenues of 426 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: of casting. You know, you're the street. You probably don't 427 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 1: have to make a video. If they want, I could 428 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,239 Speaker 1: probably like send them pictures of your basketball skills, some 429 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: maybe his ping pong playing. Do they care about that? 430 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if those specifically would be interesting, but 431 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: maybe like we go film us like skydiving or something. 432 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: You guys skydive on that show. Oh they're doing like 433 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 1: dangerous things, like we probably would have to sign a 434 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: waiver that like signed our life away. I actually think 435 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: The Bachelor, I'm telling you watch it. It's so good. 436 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: I promise. If you what was the show you randomly 437 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: got into that, we were all, oh my gosh, at Cake, No, 438 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: that's very show.

Let we go 441 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: on into please please I did. I We've talked about this. 442 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: I didn't like the structure of that show, with different strokes, 443 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: different folks. That's true. Okay, well we'll wait to hear 444 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: hear what happens. Yeah, and then the meantime we can 445 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 1: talk about a different show, which is The Bachelor. Summer 446 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: I turned out pretty oh yeah yeah, very different, very 447 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: different shows. So let's just get it out there. Whose 448 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: team are you on? Okay, this isn't this isn't very 449 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 1: clear for me. It's very one or the other. It's 450 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: not because you're Jeremiah or your team reading the book 451 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: and it's different in the book. Okay, well off of 452 00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: the TV series, of the TV series. I love Jeremiah, 453 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: and I think Jeremiah is who I would go for, 454 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: But I think for Belly, I'm team Conrad.

Do you enjoy waking up and 459 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: wondering does my partner love me today or do they 460 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: not love me today? Or do you enjoy the the 461 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 1: unstability of walking through sand under your feet, or would 462 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: you rather have a hard cement ground to walk on? 463 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: So okay, so you're saying that Jeremiah, who has hooked 464 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: up with boys and girls all summer long and has 465 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: talked about his freedom of hooking up with girls and 466 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: boys all summer long, is hard, solid ground. He's never 467 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: toyed with Belly like Conrad has. You never know what 468 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: kind of Conrad you're gonna get.

No, Jeremiah shows up, He's 471 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: got a birthday present. He's smiling, taking her to the 472 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: airport to pick up her best friend for her birthday. 473 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: He's happy he's there. Con Conrad is a question Mark 474 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: got her something so thoughtful, and it just didn't feel 475 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: like it was the time that it was going to 476 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: be worth giving it to her. Also, yeah, okay, okay, Jeremiah, 477 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: do you think he's the solid choice, safe choice? Do 478 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: you like the safe choice steady Eddie if you like 479 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: to call him, what steady Eddie? Okay, steady Eddie. Steady 480 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: Eddie didn't seem interested in Belly until she until he 481 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: saw that she was interested in somebody else. So you're 482 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: telling me, okay, okay, that no, I didn't interrupted thing, 483 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: that I didn't interrupt you stupidest.

Thank you so much, thank you, Mark. 485 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: So what you're telling me, if the Team Jeremiah people, 486 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: you're saying that you would like someone who only wants 487 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: you as soon as you're into somebody else. He only 488 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 1: really likes the chase because that's what Jeremiah wanted. He 489 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: wanted the challenge of Belly because he knew she was 490 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: into somebody else. However, Conrad, throughout all the flashbacks you see, 491 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 1: was so sweet and loving and kind to Belly because 492 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: he loves her. But he's literally he was carrying the 493 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: weight of spoiler spoiler alert alert. I'm giving a spoiler 494 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: alert so that they can skip. He was carrying the 495 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: weight of the information of his mom being sick and 496 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: didn't have anyone to turn to. He's eighteen, or however 497 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: old he is. His dad cheated on his mom. He 498 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: is carrying a lot as an eight year old boy 499 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 1: who's also in love with his best friend, who who 500 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: he didn't have the capacity to give to her. Let 501 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: me tell you something. We all don't like somebody until 502 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: we like them. That argument is so like. No, I 503 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: feel like you're so against that in every other podcast, 504 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: like Hayley. You didn't like Hayley until you liked her. 505 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: She existed, she was in the world, and I've always 506 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: liked your your This is not a compared that was 507 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: it not an equal comparison. I've never seen this show, 508 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: and I agree with Becca. I'll tell you that right now. 509 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: What just a more rational argument than the other one 510 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: talking about mine' so rational? I love Jeremiah and Ration 511 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: now I'm I'm rooting for Jo. I love Jeremiah, and 512 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: I think I think the show is so perfectly casted. 513 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: But Belly loves Conrad like she will never fully be 514 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: able to get give Jeremiah John Mayer. But is he 515 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: a better partner for me? No? Absolutely not. Yeah, exactly, 516 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: those are not the same time, are terrible spot on. 517 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: You don't love Jo, you love Jeremiah. If your team Jeremiah, 518 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: then you know Belly would never be able to give 519 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: him what he wanted or deserved Jeremiah. Yeah, because Belly 520 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: loves Conrad. That's what she thinks. Everyone should know that 521 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: Tanya has removed the microphone from the cradle when is 522 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: sitting back in her chair to really get into this, 523 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: because I don't understand that you're I'm like I and 524 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: my choice is the is makes the most sense. Well, 525 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: let the scrubbers decide. Yeah, what an argument at the end, 526 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: it makes the most sense. No, Jeremiah is he's fun, 527 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: he's sweet, he's the best friend. But he's not He's 528 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: there's no, He's not a heartbreaker. Conrad is not a heartbreaker. 529 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: Conrad is like navigating broken her heart once? Why what 530 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: making out with her and like leading her on and 531 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: then saying I can't do with this. You already broke 532 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: her heart ones how many times you want him to 533 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: do it? Before he was like a side Now more 534 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: this he's saying, I cannot. I want to be able 535 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: to love you, but I can't because there's too much 536 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: going on in my life and I want to do 537 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: it the right way, but I can't give you that 538 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: right now. You know what people say here we go, 539 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: strap in, strap in for what people say, right person, 540 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: wrong time is just the wrong person. You literally wait, you, 541 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: you of all people are saying this, that's right, So okay, 542 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: So you and Robbie. Okay, so oh sorry, okay, we're 543 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: going back. You and Red Star had a relationship and 544 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: at the time things were just not working. Something was 545 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: not working. So y'all had what reference as the trigger event. Yeah, wrong, 546 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: wrong time, wrong time. However, he knew it was the 547 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: wrong time. He knew he met me too early on, 548 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: but he knew you were the right person. That was 549 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: the wrong time, but he was, he was exactly what 550 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: I'm trying to know. He was the right person at 551 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: the wrong time, the wrong per Yes, your argument you 552 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: are the wrong person for him. No, No, because no, 553 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: because it was the wrong time, but he made at 554 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: the right time. He's like, I'm not letting you go 555 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: because you are the person for me. So I'm just 556 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: going to work through all this stuff and I'm not 557 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: letting you go like Conrad was trying to do. He 558 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: didn't just yeah, what happened, He worked through stuff out. Yes, 559 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: he worked through the stuff. No, because they made out 560 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: a week before then he said, woke up the next 561 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: day and said I can't do it, and then it 562 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: ended with them working it out on the beach. It 563 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: sucks to get defeated. Defeated, and I do have to say, 564 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: I do have to say I have a thing with whoever. 565 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what the word is or the verbi 566 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: verbiage for the job the person who puts the music 567 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: to the sound to this, to the to the shows. 568 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: Because every time Conrad and her had like a romantic moment, 569 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift would play in the background. Every single time, 570 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: It's like, you know what this feels sexist? Isn't the word? 571 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: What's the word? Preferenced? Biased? Biased? Thank you? The soundtrack 572 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: as a whole was just absolutely incredible. Yeah, it's really good. 573 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: Every song. I was like, why didn't Jeremiah get any 574 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift songs? I mean, this is a like fictional show, right, 575 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: It's not like a game show or something. Do they 576 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: get equal opportunity to have in the background? No, because 577 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: I think whoever that person in that role is is 578 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: clearly team Conrad. Is that like the music producer? Is 579 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: that something like that? Um music editor. I'm looking forward 580 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: to Crystal's video of this because running on her chair 581 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: with an indignant look on her face is going to 582 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: be hilarious. I just like that she basically repeated every 583 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: point that I was trying to make just in her 584 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: own way, but all the points led back to my 585 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: original point, which which is the way to go. M Okay, okay, 586 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: you can still like Jeremiah, but you're wrong, not wrong. 587 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: Your argument doesn't hold its built that makes sense to 588 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: anybody else For me, well, I'm sure there will be 589 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 1: scrubbers who agree with you, but I think your argument 590 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: is built on the sand and mine is built on 591 00:32:54,800 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: a steady surface. That was the impression I had as 592 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: someone who's never seen the show. You know what, Mark, 593 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: you also have a bias here, Okay, bias towards Becca. Yeah, 594 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: that's heard me. No, we talked today. How long have 595 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: we known each other? Eleven twelve years? Oh yeah. I 596 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: posted that video and I was like, I was trying 597 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: to like fix my hair, so I had like my 598 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: camera and I was like trying to fix my hair 599 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: at work this morning. And Mark was like, I said 600 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: a really nice compliment. So I posted it on my 601 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: Instagram and everyone's like, you can't hear what he said? 602 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: And I was like, oh no, you can't know. You 603 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: can hear us like some commercial for radiology or something. 604 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: You say, I say it now, I say it now. 605 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: It wasn't you didn't. I could have reset it if 606 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: you wanted me to. What I said was, Tanya, how 607 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: long we worked together eleven twelve years? You still make 608 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: me laugh every day? And it's true. That's such a 609 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: nice compliment. It was really nice. And I was like, 610 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: I don't know where it came from, but I think 611 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: I just said something very funny. I came from this 612 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: morning show. I don't remember what it was, but you 613 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: said some stuff in this morning show that had me 614 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: laughing all out.

Um well, we'll let the 617 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: scrubbers weigh in on this. Maybe we'll do a pole 618 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: on the love a pole. I would love a pole. 619 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: I do think that. I think both. I think it's 620 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: so here's the question, what's the better choice for Belly 621 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: for Belly? Um? I I also because I said I 622 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: posted like I was team Conrad for Belly, and so 623 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:44,879 Speaker 1: many people are like he is so dark and like 624 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: I can't give her what he needs acting.

This 656 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: is from anonymous, and she says, by the way I 657 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: pre read this one, this is brutal and tough, and 658 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell her. So let's see 659 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: what we can do. A week ago, I discovered my 660 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: husband of ten plus years has been having an affair 661 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 1: for over a year with someone my kids and I 662 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: both know. We have three kids. The youngest isn't even 663 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: a year old. I'll let you do the math there. 664 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: He is now choosing to go all in with this woman, 665 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,280 Speaker 1: and it is absolutely killing me. I know my worth 666 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: and I will never want to be with him again, 667 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: but it is killing me that this type of woman 668 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: will potentially be around my kids in the future. So 669 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: a few questions. One, how do I stop myself from 670 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: being petty and bitter? And too, how do I let 671 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: go of the control? Mm hmm, you're right, this is 672 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 1: brutal and by the way, and this isn't you guys 673 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: should go first. You're not being petty? Does something petty 674 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: about your dislike of this woman or the situation? No, 675 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: but that when she says that, it leads me to 676 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: believe that she's like acting a certain way the other woman. No, No, 677 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: that she is. How do I stop myself from being 678 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 1: petty and bitter? Well, because she's probably like I don't 679 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: want my kids to be around this woman. So it's like, 680 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: what is she considering petty? Because like I'm with Mark, 681 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: if i'm I'm going to be petty and bitter if 682 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: if this happens to me too. I think the thing 683 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: with being petty and bitter in these situations and look 684 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 1: like I would probably be you know, you would absolutely 685 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: be got to be freaking piste off. I would, but 686 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: but it would be misdirected. I think like being better better, 687 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: being petty and bitter only makes your life. It only 688 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: takes away from your joy, do you know what I mean? Like, 689 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: what's happened has happened in that guy's a scumbag and 690 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: he's going to get what's coming to him, do you 691 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like, you don't need to give 692 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: it to him. You don't need to, you know. I 693 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 1: just feel like, especially with kids being involved, if you're 694 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: trying to do anything petty or bitter towards him or 695 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: this woman, it's only gonna hurt your kids. So I 696 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: feel like, the how do I stop myself from being 697 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: petty and bitter? Just realize that it's taking away your 698 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: own joy in life, Like you're focusing on these people 699 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: that suck versus your life, which you can make amazing 700 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,799 Speaker 1: and like, you know, make amazing for your kids. And 701 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 1: then I think the how do you let go of control? 702 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing. What I've realized is 703 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: everybody is a control freak, and we all want to 704 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: control every aspect of everything in our lives. You want 705 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: to control everything, and we literally control nothing. We can 706 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: only control our emotions and how we react to things. 707 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: And I think once you realize that, because I've also 708 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 1: obviously I've seen, you know, I've had a lot of 709 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: friends go through divorce. My boyfriend's been through a divorce, 710 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: and I think that a lot of the time that 711 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 1: back and forth. Stuff comes from wanting to control the 712 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: situation or control the other person and control what's going 713 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: on on the other side, when in reality, like, you 714 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: can't control that, no matter how hard you try, you 715 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 1: just can't. And so once you kind of get to 716 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: that point of realizing you will never control be able 717 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 1: to control what's going on with your ex has been 718 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: and this woman, ever, no matter how hard you try, 719 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,879 Speaker 1: it's only going to hurt your kids if you try 720 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: to do that, and you can just control your side. 721 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: And so that The best piece of advice I got 722 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: was from that old couple that I met in Santa 723 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: Barbara that said that they they've been married for thirty 724 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: five years, they have five kids total. They had two 725 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: kids when they met, and we were asking them all 726 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: these questions about just kind of how that works, and 727 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 1: they said, kids grow where the sun shines, and so 728 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: that was like very very um. We took that advice 729 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 1: to heart and we still say it every single day. 730 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: We're just like kids grow where the sunshines. Like we 731 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: keep it sunny, we keep it bright, we keep it light, 732 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: and we keep it happy on our side. And that's it. Yeah, control, 733 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 1: I do think you can control how you can control 734 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: how you handle it. I don't think you can control 735 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,359 Speaker 1: the feelings you have about the situation in this woman. 736 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: And I don't think it's fair to yourself to expect 737 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 1: to just be able to like move on and and 738 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: put on a happy face. But I do think for 739 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 1: the kid's sake, just at the very least being cordial 740 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: and at least presenting in front of them that you 741 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: both love and care about them. And I don't think 742 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 1: you have to have conversations with this other woman or 743 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 1: conversations with your ex, but I think it's important to 744 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: be able to communicate in a way that's productive for 745 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: the kids. But I also think, like let yourself be mad, 746 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 1: like I would be so pissed, Like I wouldn't just 747 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: be able to be like, oh, I know bitterness is 748 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: only hurting me, Like I would be like, I'm really 749 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: upset that I invested so much of my time in 750 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: my life into someone who's willing to drop what we 751 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: have created so fast. And I think, like reach out 752 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 1: to the people that your support system, your friends, your family, 753 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: and like really lean on them and let yourself be mad. 754 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: And I think for the kids, say you do have 755 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 1: to maybe slap on a happier face than your feeling 756 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: and be nicer to your ex in front of them 757 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: than you would ever want to be. But I mean, 758 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: I think the control issue is having conversations. I know 759 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: um our friend Amber Lancaster, she's been pretty open about 760 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: her relationship with her ex husband and they have a 761 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: child together, and he's really involved in UM their son 762 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: Russell's life, and she's been saying, like, you know, we 763 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: do it for him, and I think it's obviously very 764 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 1: hard and it's not always perfect and pretty, but I 765 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: do know that it will make a difference in your 766 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: kid's life. So it just sucks. I'm so sorry that 767 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: you're going through this and that he's taken this away 768 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: from you. You know, he's taken that perfect family you 769 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: thought you had, and now these kids are going to 770 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: have another mother figure in their lives, not their mom, 771 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: and that sucks. My advice is just too spend as 772 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,359 Speaker 1: little time as possible with your ex and his wife 773 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: and maybe have no communication whatsoever except what's absolutely necessary. 774 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: When the kids are there, be the best mom you 775 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: can be, and when the kids are not there, take 776 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,399 Speaker 1: that opportunity to thrive and just be the best you 777 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: you can be and know that this next chapter of 778 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: your life is not what you planned, that it can 779 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: still be amazing. You can it really. I mean it 780 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like it now because you're miserable and angry, 781 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 1: and I get it. But ten years from now, you 782 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 1: might look back and think, you know, the last ten 783 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: years have been all right. And also you can look 784 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: at it now and think that guy is her problem. 785 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: Now he's not your problem. She has to worry about 786 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: him maybe doing the same thing to her, and you 787 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: get to move on from someone who did not treat 788 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: you well. So and you know what, Like, I think 789 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: that I obviously this situation and is really tough. And 790 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,720 Speaker 1: if it were me, like getting over being with somebody 791 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: for ten years and realizing that they were having an 792 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: affair and cheating, like I would be, I wouldn't trust 793 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: somebody for like a very long time, just because that's 794 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 1: how I am and it's not the right way to be. 795 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 1: But that I just know myself. Um, But just know that, 796 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 1: you know, this season of life is going to be 797 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 1: really hard and you're probably gonna cry a lot and 798 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 1: be really sad. But I do think that sometimes you 799 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 1: have to believe that things work too in your favor, 800 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: and like you know, Red Stars told me so many 801 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: times that like he's never he never knew he could 802 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 1: be like life could be this good and he could 803 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: be this happy, and so you know, Um, it sucks. 804 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 1: And then there's gonna be a season that's really hard 805 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: for you and you feel like you don't deserve this, 806 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 1: and you definitely don't. But I feel like there's gonna 807 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: be something really a lot brighter on the other side 808 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,839 Speaker 1: for you. This is a good moment to go and 809 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 1: look at the shame Mitchell quote. Yeah, way to bring 810 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: it full circle, back up circle. But we're very sorry 811 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: this happens. It sucks.
