Speaker 1: Hey, it's Amy here and we are back with another
Speaker 1: Sunday sampler. It's clips from some of the podcasts that
Speaker 1: came out this week on the Nashville Podcast Network, like
Speaker 1: The Bobby Cast, my podcast Four Things with Amy Brown,
Speaker 1: so Losers with Lunchbox, and Ray Movie, Mike's Movie podcast,
Speaker 1: Get Real with Caroline Hobby, and more. This week on
Speaker 1: the Bobby Cast, Bobby talked with radio veterans Tony Randall
Speaker 1: and Chris Rochester of The Tony and Chris Show. They've
Speaker 1: been in radio over thirty years, so they have a
Speaker 1: bunch of stories, like the time they interviewed Garth before
Speaker 1: he was famous. As you may know, a new podcast
Speaker 1: joined the Nashville Podcast Network Family a few weeks ago.
Speaker 1: It's called In the Vets Office with Doctor Josie and
Speaker 1: it's all about animals. So check that out if you haven't.
Speaker 1: Josie's an amazing storyteller. You're gonna love it. And another podcast,
Speaker 1: It's Near to the Fam is Take This Personally with
Speaker 1: Morgan Hulsman. This week she had on two guests, therapist
Speaker 1: doctor Alexandra Solomon and country artist Kylie Morgan. So you're
Speaker 1: going to hear from both of them. Let's get started
Speaker 1: with a clip from Take This Personally.
Speaker 2: This week, I have on doctor Solomon, who is beyond
Speaker 2: an expert with over twenty years of experience. She studied
Speaker 2: psychology and women's studies at the University of Michigan, and
Speaker 2: she also received her PhD in counseling psychology.
Speaker 3: Thank you for joining me, and.
Speaker 2: I want to get your expertise on several topics, but
Speaker 2: we're going to dive right into the deep end.
Speaker 4: To start, I.
Speaker 2: Want to talk to you about the ways that we
Speaker 2: invalidate ourselves. I'm guilty of it. I know a lot
Speaker 2: of people are of saying others have it worse. How
Speaker 2: do we get away from doing that and feeling that way?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well the only way that I know
Speaker 5: how to do it is with something in something that
Speaker 5: comes from psychology, which is called dialectics. So dialectics. You know,
Speaker 5: our research has shown that a lot of our emotional
Speaker 5: resilience and emotional well being rests upon our ability to
Speaker 5: hold a dialectic. And a dialectic is a space where
Speaker 5: competing truths, where two things are true at the same time,
Speaker 5: two things that seem opposite are actually both true. I
Speaker 5: had a terrible day and I am blessed. Those both
Speaker 5: are true. We can be blessed and suffering that both
Speaker 5: those things can be true. I don't have to prove
Speaker 5: that I have it worse than anybody else in order
Speaker 5: to be entitled to my suffering, and the way that
Speaker 5: I do that is by holding both my grief and
Speaker 5: my gratitude, my courage and my fear, the fact that
Speaker 5: I'm whole as I am, and I'm.
Speaker 6: Forever a work in progress.
Speaker 5: Like these things that just seem like they can't possibly
Speaker 5: both be true at the same time are as part
Speaker 5: of the thing that makes being.
Speaker 6: Alive so complicated.
Speaker 5: So I think if I have one of those moments,
Speaker 5: I certainly have had those moments where I am just
Speaker 5: in the suck. I am just like suffering and struggling
Speaker 5: and want to host a big old pity party for myself.
Speaker 5: And then I'm just like, ah, I'm being ridiculous because
Speaker 5: there are people who have, you know, quote unquote actual problems.
Speaker 6: Both those things are true.
Speaker 5: Yes, I am absolutely blessed and I am absolutely burnt
Speaker 5: out or struggling. So that's where I try to go,
Speaker 5: because You're right, if I cannot validate my own suffering.
Speaker 5: You can bet that I'm not going to be able
Speaker 5: to validate the suffering of people around me, and then
Speaker 5: I'm not going to be very fun to be around
Speaker 5: because I'm going to be judgmental and dismissive, you know,
Speaker 5: and like roll my eyes at people. And that's not
Speaker 5: going to be a recipe for healthy relationships.
Speaker 2: And being self aware is kind of one of the
Speaker 2: big buzzwords right now in psychology and therapy.
Speaker 4: Visit living up to all the hypes. Should we be
Speaker 4: focusing so much on that? And what does that look like?
Speaker 2: If somebody hasn't ever heard the word self aware and
Speaker 2: they're like, what do I need to do with that?
Speaker 2: What would be the first steps you'd tell someone to
Speaker 2: get through this first phase to be on that journey.
Speaker 6: Self awareness is my that's my jam.
Speaker 5: That's how I spend really all day every day is
Speaker 5: supporting people in different ways to understand with curiosity and
Speaker 5: with compassion who they are and why they are the
Speaker 5: way that they are.
Speaker 6: And I think it's it is essential.
Speaker 5: If what people want is high quality relationships, whether that's
Speaker 5: relationship with partner, relationship with their family members, relationship with
Speaker 5: their kids, we have to be willing to get curious
Speaker 5: about why we are reacting the way we are reacting
Speaker 5: in any given moment, like that's just the work of it.
Speaker 5: So I think the first step is to just begin
Speaker 5: to notice how we're talking to ourselves, notice when we
Speaker 5: have rise and fall of different emotions during the day,
Speaker 5: Like just getting really curious and starting to view our
Speaker 5: thoughts and our feelings and our behaviors as data. It's
Speaker 5: just data that we then can sit with and wonder about.
Speaker 5: I think one of the things, you know, you started
Speaker 5: off by asking about kind of what's changed in the
Speaker 5: last couple of decades the whole field of self help.
Speaker 5: As I was growing up in the eighties, my mom
Speaker 5: always had a stack of self help books next to
Speaker 5: her nightstand. So self help isn't new necessarily, but we're
Speaker 5: living in this really exciting time with social media of
Speaker 5: podcasts where there's so many resources that somebody can bring in,
Speaker 5: and I think just listening to different podcasts that are
Speaker 5: about relationships or about psychology, or reading, you know, following
Speaker 5: different Instagram accounts, there's like daily small doses of self
Speaker 5: awareness work. I think those are really gentle ways to start,
Speaker 5: especially if someone's not interested in committing to therapy or
Speaker 5: something like that. But there's little things we can do
Speaker 5: each day to just begin to check in with ourselves.
Speaker 2: How do you suggest I think it's hard for people
Speaker 2: to receive feedback. There's criticism and there's unkindness, but then
Speaker 2: there's feedback. And because of social media, there is also
Speaker 2: this other side that we've seen, this very cruel side
Speaker 2: of the world. So it's really easy to loop in
Speaker 2: feedback with criticism and negativity. So how do we kind
Speaker 2: of look at something like, Okay, this is feedback to
Speaker 2: help me versus criticism to hurt me.
Speaker 6: That's right.
Speaker 5: I think that's a very very good point. It's all
Speaker 5: about the strength of the relationship.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I will not take feedback from somebody where I have
Speaker 5: a sense that there's an ulterior motive or a hidden agenda,
Speaker 5: or a lack of willingness to be in dialogue with me,
Speaker 5: in community with me. I won't take feedback from somebody
Speaker 5: where if I don't have a sense that somebody has
Speaker 5: my back or has my best interest at heart, or
Speaker 5: who really can feel the core of me as a good,
Speaker 5: decent person, they don't get the right to give me feedback. Right,
Speaker 5: You know and that so that I think it really
Speaker 5: is about the strength that's I want us to be
Speaker 5: cultivating the kinds of relationships where there's enough trust that
Speaker 5: then feedback feels like a generous gift rather than an attack.
Speaker 5: And that's what there was right with my husband. I
Speaker 5: trust that he's in my corner. I trust that he
Speaker 5: has my back. I trust that whatever he wants and
Speaker 5: needs to say to me is in the service of
Speaker 5: everyone in our family feeling safe and understand and held
Speaker 5: and celebrated, rather than to take me down or to
Speaker 5: prove some point or to diminish me.
Speaker 7: You guys go to San Diego. How long were you
Speaker 7: on together in San Diego?
Speaker 8: Ninety three to two and fifteen years?
Speaker 9: Fifteen years?
Speaker 10: I think, well, that last year was just paid out there.
Speaker 9: You got paid for a whole year.
Speaker 11: Oh more than that.
Speaker 9: It was the craziest thing.
Speaker 8: We won't go into the radio company that did it,
Speaker 8: but before it was we were making really good money.
Speaker 8: That they had built a station across the street for us,
Speaker 8: and we went across the street and then halfway through
Speaker 8: it we were number one, beating our old station that
Speaker 8: had never been beaten before.
Speaker 7: Okay, let me let me for those that don't know,
Speaker 7: so across the street means a rival. So you were
Speaker 7: working at a different station and a clear channel built
Speaker 7: a station and then they said, hey, come so they
Speaker 7: hired you away from your old station.
Speaker 9: Yes, got it, And.
Speaker 8: We were crushing like they put a ridiculous bonus in
Speaker 8: if you could beat your old station because it was
Speaker 8: always number one, and we did it in the first
Speaker 8: book and everybody was losing their mind.
Speaker 10: And then a new Jane clarify one quick thing. They
Speaker 10: didn't hire us away like we just went for more money.
Speaker 10: There's a story behind it. We wanted to stay at
Speaker 10: Casso Win. Oh if we were there for ten years,
Speaker 10: wasn't a big contract negotiations?
Speaker 9: Then you picked them.
Speaker 10: It was a big contract negotiation. The contract had been
Speaker 10: negotiated in principle. We just hadn't signed the contract yet.
Speaker 10: Everything was done for our wives. I delay it is great.
Speaker 10: And then the VP at the at that time was
Speaker 10: an insurance company that owned Cassel Lincoln Financial. She saw
Speaker 10: it the deal and she said, what what are we doing.
Speaker 10: We're not paying these guys this money and they're like,
Speaker 10: yes we are. This is what the market will bear,
Speaker 10: this is what the top shows are making. She says, well,
Speaker 10: we've never paid a show this much and we're not
Speaker 10: doing that. So she renegged on the deal.
Speaker 8: Wow, she next the deal just and then she sent
Speaker 8: word down when they'll either take it what they're doing
Speaker 8: for another year one year contract so we can find
Speaker 8: someone cheaper, or they can go to another market and
Speaker 8: we'll tell everybody they ditched for more money.
Speaker 10: And that was the caso in way because there were
Speaker 10: some names that came out of there. Jack Diamond back
Speaker 10: in the day, Lisa Dent who went to Chicago had
Speaker 10: great success. It was a station where if you left,
Speaker 10: if you were successful and left, you left the city.
Speaker 10: Nobody had ever stayed because there was no country station
Speaker 10: who would take him on ever. So this was right
Speaker 10: before the holidays. It was weird because we always took
Speaker 10: two weeks off at the end of the year and
Speaker 10: we're packing up our stuff. But then we basically called
Speaker 10: the buddy of ours and said, hey, can you come
Speaker 10: help us get this out. We're going to empty out
Speaker 10: the office because we knew when we left we were
Speaker 10: leaving for good. And our agent called the guy's a
Speaker 10: clear channel and said, hey, would you be interested in
Speaker 10: Tony and Chris, and they were like, absolutely, but they'll
Speaker 10: never leave KSOM. I mean, they're killing it over there.
Speaker 10: And he was a funny story and he told them
Speaker 10: what happened.
Speaker 12: They said.
Speaker 10: The guy was like, give me a couple of days
Speaker 10: because now we're in the holidays. Books are closed. Obviously,
Speaker 10: long story short, it got done. And when we left
Speaker 10: Kson before Christmas two weeks before, came back in January
Speaker 10: to a brand new radio station that had been built
Speaker 10: for us.
Speaker 7: Was that a super stressful, intense time for you guys. Yes,
Speaker 7: that you talk about it now, it's like how ham
Speaker 7: But really at the time, it was like, oh my god, horrible. Yeah,
Speaker 7: I'm like, what am I going to do?
Speaker 8: I've I got he hurt, even though the other station
Speaker 8: you loved everybody at the other station, and then you're
Speaker 8: coming on and it was just weird and like jealous
Speaker 8: that there's people in our seats and across the street.
Speaker 9: How quickly did they hire someone new? Pretty quick? They
Speaker 9: had to Actually, I take that back, like a year.
Speaker 10: They put in like a mid the midday guy and
Speaker 10: somebody and they were on there for that only it
Speaker 10: was a year.
Speaker 9: And they're dead man walking. It almost doesn't matter who
Speaker 9: it is.
Speaker 10: Yeah, they knew well they and the nice thing about
Speaker 10: to their credit, they weren't hiring them to do the
Speaker 10: morning show and then get rid of them when they
Speaker 10: were done. The guy stayed on with the company for
Speaker 10: a while doing midday the things, but you know, they
Speaker 10: did what they had to do, and then they hired
Speaker 10: a show that was, in my opinion, not awesome. But
Speaker 10: it's tough because they're putting people together who weren't already
Speaker 10: a show, and that's that's risky.
Speaker 9: What was it like at the new place?
Speaker 10: Initially?
Speaker 9: It was great initially well with.
Speaker 8: The GM when he hired us, he goes, look, our
Speaker 8: afternoon guy is a good kid, he's the PD. Will
Speaker 8: you guys kind of train him how to be a PD?
Speaker 9: And you knew how to be a PD? Huh did
Speaker 9: you guys know how to be a PD?
Speaker 13: Well?
Speaker 9: I think we knew. We knew how to be cast
Speaker 9: on by the best.
Speaker 10: We knew how to be KSL.
Speaker 8: And so then we would say, like, the first thing
Speaker 8: they're going to do is say call all the record
Speaker 8: labels and say if you do anything with them, we're
Speaker 8: not going to play the records. So we said, let's
Speaker 8: get the PD or the music director at k and
Speaker 8: I X to be our music director also, so that
Speaker 8: takes away that leverage.
Speaker 9: And you know, so we were little things like that. It
Speaker 9: was a brand new station.
Speaker 10: We weren't reporting, but ANIX was and so it was
Speaker 10: Gwynn Foster so and so that that held. They couldn't say, well,
Speaker 10: we won't play it anymore. So well neither were Canix.
Speaker 8: So we we crushed them and we're I mean, it
Speaker 8: was just rocking and it was great. And then the
Speaker 8: new GM come in and the new GM. The afternoon
Speaker 8: jock was not the PD was not smart.
Speaker 9: How long was your turn? Your new contract for five years?
Speaker 8: And when the new GM come in, the GM basically
Speaker 8: said I don't need a morning show's input.
Speaker 9: I've got a PD right here.
Speaker 10: I didn't believe in country either, So it was we
Speaker 10: were out of the.
Speaker 9: Gate fundamentally a bad just a bad fit. Yeah.
Speaker 8: And then as soon as that happened, we got cut
Speaker 8: out of the loop on everything and the decision started
Speaker 8: being weird. Like I remember one day being at CMA
Speaker 8: the roundtable thing, and the lady walked up and goes, boy,
Speaker 8: it's a tough day for you guys. And we're like what,
Speaker 8: and she goes the PD's calling all the regionals or
Speaker 8: the record reps and telling them that we don't need
Speaker 8: you anymore because they decided they're going to start leaning
Speaker 8: more Old Country.
Speaker 9: We're like what.
Speaker 8: So we had to call and get that stopped, and
Speaker 8: then like six weeks later, without telling anybody, they flipped
Speaker 8: it to New Country.
Speaker 9: It was just weird.
Speaker 8: But anyhow, when we were saying the last year we
Speaker 8: just got paid out, we were calling our agent, and
Speaker 8: our agent finally just said one day he goes, guys, Paul,
Speaker 8: you know Paul I do, and he goes, guys, you're
Speaker 8: trying to win and you will not win. They want
Speaker 8: you gone, and we're like, well, what do we do?
Speaker 8: And so we went and said, if you don't want
Speaker 8: us here, let us out, and they were like, oh no,
Speaker 8: we want you here, but we need you to sign this.
Speaker 8: And it was a list of you will not easy
Speaker 8: ask stuff, You will not talk more than twenty seconds
Speaker 8: of break, you will never say your name, you will
Speaker 8: run no imaging with your name.
Speaker 10: If traffic's more than sixty seconds behind out of this window.
Speaker 10: I mean, all these crazy reasons they could fight out a.
Speaker 7: Where was this coming from, like what you actually have
Speaker 7: some clarity from it now because you're far removed, But really,
Speaker 7: what was happening?
Speaker 8: What was the goal in Well, we found out because
Speaker 8: of an email. Basically they wanted to save the money.
Speaker 8: Did they were paying you guys, the GM.
Speaker 10: They were trying to get us for cause because it
Speaker 10: was an ironclad contract.
Speaker 7: And that's why they were giving you all these stipulations.
Speaker 7: They were ready for you to break one because they
Speaker 7: were so hard to maintain.
Speaker 8: Paul was just like, take the checks in our building
Speaker 8: to get out of Remember when the craze happened where
Speaker 8: everybody was buying everybody. Yes, we had Jeff and jer
Speaker 8: Dave Shelley and Chainsaw us AJ. The four biggest morning
Speaker 8: shows in San Diego were all in one hallway and
Speaker 8: that was a lot of money, a lot of money
Speaker 8: back then. And they just the new GM come in
Speaker 8: and goes, I don't want that, Like they replaced our
Speaker 8: show when we left with two part timers who at
Speaker 8: one of which had never been in a radio station
Speaker 8: six weeks before.
Speaker 10: It's kind of like when George gets fired from the
Speaker 10: Yankees and they're like, who's doing your job now? An
Speaker 10: intern he comes in on Mondays.
Speaker 7: You know, it's like out that GM came in with
Speaker 7: a completely different agenda, and he was trying to put
Speaker 7: the pieces together to eliminate a lot of cash being
Speaker 7: paid out to talent.
Speaker 9: Didn't believe in talent basically.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was probably the beginning of the end for
Speaker 10: talent in San Diego anyway at that time.
Speaker 8: So for a year we just our agent just said,
Speaker 8: just go in, get do the weather, the calls, and
Speaker 8: play solitaire all morning and cash those checks.
Speaker 10: So in the meantime, I'll work to get you out
Speaker 10: of this, and he eventually did and they had to
Speaker 10: pass eighteen months to do nothing, which is great.
Speaker 14: You're listening to in the ves office with doctor Josie Horschak.
Speaker 15: I'm so excited about our guest today in the VETS office.
Speaker 15: We have my friend and my mentor, doctor Cindy Charlie,
Speaker 15: are joining us. Doctor Cindy is a VET that was
Speaker 15: like me in general practice for quite a while and
Speaker 15: then she decided to pursue a residency and become a
Speaker 15: board certified canine and feline a veterinary dentist in oral surgeon.
Speaker 15: She's really gone on to become the most saw after
Speaker 15: dental guru really in the vet world, and she has
Speaker 15: spent years going all over the country training veterinarians about
Speaker 15: vets industry. She taught me everything I know about VET dentistry,
Speaker 15: and she has such enthusiasm for the subject that you know,
Speaker 15: is amazing and really helps educate doctors and owners and
Speaker 15: she's just it's contagious.
Speaker 4: So I'm excited to have her here today.
Speaker 14: Awesome, All right, let's talk about teeth with doctor Cindy.
Speaker 15: Hi, doctor Cindy, we are so excited to have you
Speaker 15: in the VETS office today.
Speaker 16: Welcome, thank you, happy to be here.
Speaker 15: I know I mentioned a little bit in my intro,
Speaker 15: but doctor Cindy was a general practitioner like I am
Speaker 15: for almost twenty years, and then she decided that she
Speaker 15: wanted to be a board certified veterinary dentist. Can you
Speaker 15: explain what exactly that means for the listeners?
Speaker 16: Sure? I always call it my midlife crisis. So what
Speaker 16: I realized early in my practice career was that nothing
Speaker 16: had a big impact on how my patients felt than
Speaker 16: to work in their mouths and eliminate world discomfort. And
Speaker 16: so I had an opportunity to become a specialist. Just
Speaker 16: like as a person you go to an oncologist or
Speaker 16: a radiologist or internal medicine specialist. All those specialists exist
Speaker 16: in the world of veterinary medicine also, and so I
Speaker 16: went back to become a board certified veterinary dentist. So
Speaker 16: there are probably about one hundreds of us or so
Speaker 16: in the United States, not very many. It's a relatively
Speaker 16: new specialty in veterary medicine. But I went back and
Speaker 16: did that because I felt it gave me an opportunity
Speaker 16: to really impact patients' care.
Speaker 15: And I think a really interesting thing that listeners may
Speaker 15: not know until they listen to this podcast is that
Speaker 15: in veterinary medicine, it's very different than in human medicine.
Speaker 15: When pets come to their general practitioner, we really do
Speaker 15: what we feel comfortable doing until we're like, this is
Speaker 15: maybe above my pay grade. I'm going to send them
Speaker 15: to a specialist. So at any given moment, we can
Speaker 15: be an ophthalmologist, a dentist, a cardiologist. What are some
Speaker 15: of the things that you typically see that general practitioners
Speaker 15: are sending to you rather than doing themselves.
Speaker 16: Yeah, So the greatest thing about being a specialist is
Speaker 16: we have an opportunity to triangulate. So it's the veterinary specialist,
Speaker 16: it's the general practitioner, it's the owner, and it's the
Speaker 16: patients in the middle. So there's three of us putting
Speaker 16: our heads together to be a as we can about
Speaker 16: providing the pet with the best care. So some of
Speaker 16: the common cases that I would have referred to me
Speaker 16: would be a pet with a fractured tooth for a
Speaker 16: root canal, a pet with a oral tumor, a cancerous
Speaker 16: tumor to have treatment for that, a doog that got
Speaker 16: hit by a car that had a fractured jaw, a
Speaker 16: hat or kitten that was born with a cleft palate.
Speaker 16: Like kids are born with cleft palates, puppies and kittens
Speaker 16: are sometimes born with that. Also, patients that may be
Speaker 16: a high risk anesthetic patient that the general practitioner isn't
Speaker 16: comfortable working on. So those types of cases that are
Speaker 16: beyond what the general practitioners cofortable working on and often
Speaker 16: get referred.
Speaker 15: I think what would be fun to do is, you know,
Speaker 15: ICEE patients, every single day, I'm doing an exam from
Speaker 15: toes to nail, toes to nail nose to tail, and
Speaker 15: a big part of that is doing a really good
Speaker 15: thorough oral exam. So a lot of time were talking
Speaker 15: about dentistry in general practice, and I thought it'd be
Speaker 15: kind of fun to role play what I'm hearing owners
Speaker 15: say to me on a daily basis and then hearing
Speaker 15: what you have to say back. And this is not
Speaker 15: to make fun of owners or listeners, like this is
Speaker 15: it's our job to educate you. And you just don't
Speaker 15: know what. You just don't know, So that's what that's
Speaker 15: what we're here for. So the very number one thing
Speaker 15: that I hear when we talk about oral health and
Speaker 15: dentistry is, you know, doctor Josie, I never brushed my
Speaker 15: dog's teeth growing up. We never had any issues. And
Speaker 15: now you're recommending a teeth cleaning or a dental for
Speaker 15: my pet, and it's so expensive, hundreds of dollars, maybe
Speaker 15: one thousand dollars, Like, why what is going on here?
Speaker 16: Yeah? So years ago, we really didn't pay much attention
Speaker 16: to the mouth. Even when I graduated from veninary school,
Speaker 16: I didn't learn much about dogs and cats and their
Speaker 16: teeth and oral discomfort. I learned dogs and cats had teeth,
Speaker 16: but that was about it. So we've gotten a lot
Speaker 16: smarter in ventary medicine as we've gone on, And what
Speaker 16: we know now now is that oral disease is a
Speaker 16: huge source of discomfort and pain for the patient. And
Speaker 16: very seldom will you or did I have a patient
Speaker 16: come to us or the owner come to us and say,
Speaker 16: my dog's mouth is painful, my cat's mouth is painful.
Speaker 16: So that hidden source of discomfort is what we're actor
Speaker 16: to try to treat before the daughter cat stops eating.
Speaker 16: And in order to do that, we have to put
Speaker 16: the patients under general anesthesia. Our patients don't just open
Speaker 16: their mouths and say, ah, clean my teeth and do
Speaker 16: a complete oral exam, so general anesthesia, preoperative lab work,
Speaker 16: providing the best pre anesthetic evaluation that we can, providing
Speaker 16: monitoring during anesthetic event. All of those things cost money
Speaker 16: and require talented people on our team to assist us.
Speaker 16: And so yes, doing a dentistry procedure under general anesthesia
Speaker 16: can be expensive, but if we make it part of
Speaker 16: our pets annual care, If we do an annual procedure,
Speaker 16: then that could be less expensive over time. Instead of
Speaker 16: ignoring the fact until we get to the point where
Speaker 16: the jargat cat isn't eating and they've got a tremendous
Speaker 16: amount of discomfort, and we have to impove a lot
Speaker 16: of their teeth to a lot of oral surgery that
Speaker 16: becomes more expensive.
Speaker 15: Yeah, and I think you know, owners just don't know
Speaker 15: on the back end that there's so much that goes on.
Speaker 15: It's not just a teeth cleaning, like you said, it's
Speaker 15: we've got all those nurses that are helping with you know,
Speaker 15: getting them ready for surgery and inducing them, intimating them.
Speaker 15: It's just like all the things that would happen to
Speaker 15: humans at the human hospital. So there's a lot of
Speaker 15: talented people involved. There's a lot of work that goes
Speaker 15: on behind the scenes. And then it's not just a
Speaker 15: dental cleaning. We're taking full mouth X rays, which is
Speaker 15: a huge diagnostic tool. I'll maybe let you expand on
Speaker 15: that a little bit. And you know, cleaning is a
Speaker 15: kind of belittling what we do because we use high
Speaker 15: speed hand tools to really clean those teeth and then
Speaker 15: we're probing them to see is their disease that we
Speaker 15: can see with our eye and around the gun line.
Speaker 15: I mean, there's a it's a quite a process and
Speaker 15: it's not just a dental cleaning.
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think the word dental. Historically we've used the
Speaker 16: word dental to describe what we're doing, and that totally
Speaker 16: under estimates the time, skill, and talent needed to complete
Speaker 16: the procedure. So a comprehensive oral and radiographic evaluation under
Speaker 16: general anesthesia is probably better wording to describe it to clients.
Speaker 2: It's not just.
Speaker 16: Getting your clean. It's not what you think the groomor
Speaker 16: may or may not be able to do. There's a
Speaker 16: lot more to it.
Speaker 17: Good little food for yourself. Oh, it's pretty bad, it's
Speaker 17: pretty beautiful. Beautiful.
Speaker 4: That's a little more said.
Speaker 17: You're kicking with full thing with Amy Brown.
Speaker 1: All right, I got four questions to ask your friends
Speaker 1: or your kids around the dinner table, or your significant other,
Speaker 1: whoever you hang out with your coworkers like this, just
Speaker 1: little conversation starters that could be good. And we do
Speaker 1: high low around the dinner table a lot. When my
Speaker 1: niece was here, she had a friend visiting her for
Speaker 1: the weekend and we were doing high low and her
Speaker 1: friend said, Oh, I love rose thorn bud, and you
Speaker 1: share the rose of what's going on in your life.
Speaker 1: At the moment, which is a recent success, like it's
Speaker 1: just it's already there, it's happened, it's awesome. You share
Speaker 1: a thorn, which is a current challenge that you have,
Speaker 1: and then you share a bud, like what's budding in
Speaker 1: your life? What's an opportunity with something you're looking forward to?
Speaker 1: And so those are three questions right there. What's your rose,
Speaker 1: what's your thorn, and what's your bud?
Speaker 14: So I'll ask you, Okay, my rose right now is
Speaker 14: more about my children, but.
Speaker 18: As a mom, that's you know, it's for me.
Speaker 14: We got really good teachers this year and last year
Speaker 14: we had a very difficult year, so we were nervous
Speaker 14: about it, and it's just eliminated so much stress for me.
Speaker 1: I think even of just acknowledging that and having gratitude for.
Speaker 18: It is Yeah, this woman's amazing.
Speaker 1: It reminds me of taking all the little things in
Speaker 1: your day and looking at like what's going right, because
Speaker 1: sometimes we can get wrapped up in what's going wrong.
Speaker 1: That's an easy thing to sort of overlook, like, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: we got teachers, they're good, like onto the next But
Speaker 1: it's pausing and thinking, oh gosh, this actually really is
Speaker 1: going to be so great for our year, and I'm
Speaker 1: getting very thankful.
Speaker 14: You really notice it when you didn't have a great
Speaker 14: year the year before, it matters.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess it's probably something I've not really thought
Speaker 1: much about or taken for granted because I've typically had
Speaker 1: good teachers. What about a thorn?
Speaker 18: I think I have arthritis.
Speaker 1: That is definitely a thorn.
Speaker 14: I have this burning sensation in my knee. It almost
Speaker 14: feels like a sunburn. And I don't run and I
Speaker 14: walk every day, so it could either be runners knee
Speaker 14: but I don't run, or arthritis, and all signs are
Speaker 14: pointing towards arthritis. So I officially bought an arthritis brace
Speaker 14: the other day.
Speaker 1: It can come up at any age, depending on what's
Speaker 1: been going on. I feel like sometimes when it's going
Speaker 1: to rain, my joints will flare up. But I definitely
Speaker 1: don't have arthritis. But yeah, I know some teenagers that
Speaker 1: really deal with it, and it can be crippling, bilitating.
Speaker 14: You know, I went down the WEBMZ rabbit hole and
Speaker 14: I have to just turn it off.
Speaker 1: What about a bud for you? An opportunity?
Speaker 18: I have a really exciting brand deal coming up.
Speaker 14: Can you say, who I haven't like finalized it, but
Speaker 14: zip lock bags?
Speaker 4: Oh that's exciting, isn't that?
Speaker 14: Fun's it was something I had on my vision board
Speaker 14: to get more brand deals and yeah, we started talking
Speaker 14: on Instagram with all my recipes and yeah, there's an
Speaker 14: opportunity there.
Speaker 18: So it's silly, but it's exciting.
Speaker 1: Well, my rose would be Stevenson getting baptized last weekend.
Speaker 1: That just seeing a beautiful rose lines up with that
Speaker 1: because there was probably some thorns and buds in that.
Speaker 1: And to see the growth that he's had and how
Speaker 1: far he's come in him making that commitment and wanting
Speaker 1: to and just how excited he was and seeing friends
Speaker 1: that showed up to celebrate him. Probably had ten buddies there.
Speaker 1: That's a core memory that came. And yeah, and watching
Speaker 1: them hug him and high five him and pray over him. Also,
Speaker 1: he's turning fourteen this weekend, so that's a rose as well.
Speaker 1: A thorn for me would be I love my daughter Sashi,
Speaker 1: a lover, She's amazing. Just a recent little thorn was
Speaker 1: she put Hannah all over her face right before the baptism.
Speaker 18: Hannah like a Hannah tattoo. That lasts for weeks.
Speaker 1: Right, well according to Google, because I was freaking out
Speaker 1: trying to google how long is this going to last?
Speaker 1: And we need to get it off asap, and it
Speaker 1: said anywhere from four days to three weeks. Yeah, depending
Speaker 1: on how long you leave the hennah on because you
Speaker 1: have to let it set all about it twelve hours.
Speaker 1: Luckily we got it off in time to where it
Speaker 1: didn't do much permanent stuff. But I mean I was
Speaker 1: getting baby oil and lemon and scrubbing and all. The
Speaker 1: thing's kind of hilarious. It was hilarious. But Ben's family
Speaker 1: was coming in town baptism. There's any family photos out
Speaker 1: in place. She was starting school two days after that,
Speaker 1: and her new job. She's a hostess. And I said,
Speaker 1: you're front facing at it. You were totally the face
Speaker 1: of the restaurant. And you have hando tattoo all over
Speaker 1: your face, which is beautiful in some culture, is not
Speaker 1: your culture, right.
Speaker 4: But it's also typically on your hand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well she put on the face.
Speaker 18: That's hilarious.
Speaker 1: And then my bud would be an opportunity that I
Speaker 1: have might be that I just saw a sign to
Speaker 1: get another cat, because there's this big headline that said
Speaker 1: having a cat reduces risk of a heart attack by
Speaker 1: thirty percent. So I'm like, what an opportunity. I wonder
Speaker 1: what dogs do? Well. I love my dog, but she
Speaker 1: sort of stressed out sometimes, and my cat doesn't stress me.
Speaker 14: How he is pretty great And I am not a
Speaker 14: cat person, and Maggie's wonderful.
Speaker 18: I will second that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's sitting here with us now. So if you're
Speaker 1: looking for your sign to get a cat, A ten
Speaker 1: year study conducted by the University of Minnesota's Stroke Institute
Speaker 1: found that having a feline friend can reduce the risk
Speaker 1: of a heart attack by over thirty percent. These scientists
Speaker 1: followed over four thousand people and discovered the cat owners
Speaker 1: had much lower risk of cardiovascular disease.
Speaker 4: So, huh, bring on the cats.
Speaker 19: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then the final question for this section, so again,
Speaker 1: you're playing this game with your girlfriends, your kids, you
Speaker 1: do rosebud Thorn. And then if you did not know
Speaker 1: the day you were born, how old would you be?
Speaker 14: Okay, I have two answers. Mentally, I'm like eighty seven.
Speaker 14: I feel like I know a lot just having such
Speaker 14: a crazy childhood. You know, I remember being eighteen saying
Speaker 14: to my mom do you feel or however old she was,
Speaker 14: she was in fifty forty, and she was like, no,
Speaker 14: I feel the same way I felt when I was eighteen.
Speaker 14: So there's a part of me that still feels hip.
Speaker 14: But I realized very quickly I'm not sometimes, but I
Speaker 14: think if I was in a room by myself, in
Speaker 14: my head, I'm still like eighteen.
Speaker 18: So that's a double answer. I'm eighty seven and eighteen.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah.
Speaker 4: I kind of like that.
Speaker 1: You got the wisdom, but you're still young and free, yeah,
Speaker 1: and fun and all the things. A dead giveaway that
Speaker 1: you're older, according to gen Z, is if you wear
Speaker 1: high heels when you go out, because now.
Speaker 4: You see I don't anymore. That's the thing.
Speaker 14: Like I feel like I fall into a lot of
Speaker 14: the gen Z trends.
Speaker 1: It's probably because you spend a lot of time on TikTok.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I know. Well now I'm like, okay, I
Speaker 1: got to start where my sneakers are to go out,
Speaker 1: because I am just aging myself when I'm putting on
Speaker 1: my heels, because I still feel like that's what you
Speaker 1: do to go out. So heads up, put on the
Speaker 1: sneakers and I'm not this is not me trying to
Speaker 1: look young, and this is me saying like, thank god,
Speaker 1: the younger.
Speaker 14: Enation is very yeah, like why would you walk down
Speaker 14: Broadway in hills if you didn't have to?
Speaker 9: We're gonna do it live.
Speaker 19: Oh, the one, two, three, Sore Losers?
Speaker 13: What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
Speaker 13: about sports, so I'll give you the sports facts, my
Speaker 13: sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.
Speaker 19: It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
Speaker 19: I live on the north side of Nashville with Bayser,
Speaker 19: my wife. We do have a farm. It's beautiful, a
Speaker 19: lot of acreage, no animals, a lot of crops. Hopefully
Speaker 19: soon corn pumpkins, rye. I believe maybe a little fescue
Speaker 19: to be determined. Over to you, coach.
Speaker 13: And here's a clip from this week's episode of The
Speaker 13: Sore Losers. I'll tell you this right now. There's a
Speaker 13: dad's group see hard path. I'm not doing the dad's
Speaker 13: text thread. No, no, there's no text, there's no communication.
Speaker 13: It is just the first Thursday of every month we
Speaker 13: go out for drinks and I don't know, like a
Speaker 13: start to the month. Hey, Paul. Yeah, I'm hungover a shit,
Speaker 13: got drunk.
Speaker 19: First Thursday, by the way, to start August, go and
Speaker 19: get slaughtered.
Speaker 9: I love it.
Speaker 19: Man.
Speaker 13: Welcome to dudes. Welcome to dude. Listen. And so I
Speaker 13: don't talk to these people. This is how like I
Speaker 13: know some of the dads in the neighborhood, like I
Speaker 13: have their numbers and I text them like that awkward
Speaker 13: thing about hey, I heard nothing but thugs go to
Speaker 13: this school. When I see a school sign in his
Speaker 13: yard and no reply because I don't really know them.
Speaker 13: It's just the first Thursday of every month. This guy
Speaker 13: sends out an email. And here's the great thing about guys.
Speaker 13: You know it's the first Thursday of every month. We
Speaker 13: don't send it three days in advance and say hey,
Speaker 13: anybody want to go to this place to grab a
Speaker 13: drink at you know, eight o'clock on Thursday. He sends
Speaker 13: it out at noon on Thursday and says, hey, tonight,
Speaker 13: we're meeting here bro code. So this first Thursday of
Speaker 13: August we get an email Tenseil and Tangle. Hey, guys,
Speaker 13: I'm out of town for work, Jesse. You think you
Speaker 13: could handle this meet up tonight? Jesse replies, Hey, I'm
Speaker 13: in Arizona all week. Anybody else. So the guy sends
Speaker 13: it to me and says, hey, you want to organize something.
Speaker 13: Puts the pressure on me to get the dads together.
Speaker 13: Just name a spot. So I name a spot. Hey,
Speaker 13: let's meet at this restaurant, Barcelona Line Bar, eight o'clock. Boom,
Speaker 13: let's go. Dude, what a turnout. The only problem is
Speaker 13: the restaurant closed at nine.
Speaker 9: Guys, make it quick.
Speaker 13: So we got there. We got there at eight, like ten,
Speaker 13: eight ten, and like eight forty someone goes you, guys,
Speaker 13: realize it's closes at nine. I'm like, no, eight forty five.
Speaker 13: One of the dad shows up. He was there for
Speaker 13: fifteen minutes. Yeah, you gotta definitely check times. I've learned
Speaker 13: that with brunches, we regularly hit a ten thirty.
Speaker 19: A lot of these push eleven when they open. Oh
Speaker 19: definitely happened where we'll get there at ten thirty. Yep, guys,
Speaker 19: we're gonna go over there, grab a drink, no reason.
Speaker 19: We're just see her thirty minutes early and they're not open,
Speaker 19: so we go to a pre bar before the brunch.
Speaker 13: You're like the people that when I worked at Sam's
Speaker 13: Club would line up outside the door fifteen minutes before
Speaker 13: it opens, like they have to have the paper towels
Speaker 13: right at ten.
Speaker 9: But here's the thing.
Speaker 19: We were spoiled when we live downtown because those places
Speaker 19: are breakfast slash brunch, so we would just turn them
Speaker 19: into a brunch, whereas the midtown shit, bro, they're not
Speaker 19: pushing noon. I mean, if you want to get in
Speaker 19: and it'd be a good atmosphere, don't go a second before,
Speaker 19: got it.
Speaker 13: But yeah, so the women do get together, but now
Speaker 13: the men. I gotta admit. The men do get together,
Speaker 13: but they don't do it like the women. The women
Speaker 13: like they have a group. My wife organized it after
Speaker 13: she heard about the dad's group. She's like, well, I
Speaker 13: need a mom's group. They just go to someone's house
Speaker 13: and drink wine and eat.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 19: Snow that first guy that dipped out on you guys
Speaker 19: that said he was an Arizona or the other one
Speaker 19: was busy. Yeah, yeah, you can come over and drink
Speaker 19: my liquor cabinet or whatever beer you want, just don't
Speaker 19: pay my wife.
Speaker 13: The only we did have one awkward one. We had
Speaker 13: one awkward one, and.
Speaker 9: It wakes Jim.
Speaker 13: It was last summer and they were like, Hey, we're
Speaker 13: gonna be over at Hector's house. He has a pool.
Speaker 13: I'm like, what the kinky? So it was like twelve
Speaker 13: dads in a backyard in the pool. No women with
Speaker 13: the hangers. No, no women, no no, because it was
Speaker 13: dad's night. Hey Jim, what's your wife up to? And
Speaker 13: what was weird?
Speaker 9: Is you like to swim?
Speaker 13: How many out of twelve? Like, if you're going to
Speaker 13: a dude's night, right.
Speaker 19: If there's a pool involved, I don't know if I'm
Speaker 19: gonna get in if it's just dudes, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 19: That's the question you have to ask yourself. They did
Speaker 19: it on this TV show I watch, and it was
Speaker 19: an all dude get together and they're all on the
Speaker 19: pool together and it just looks gay, which is fine,
Speaker 19: there's nothing wrong with that. I'm heterosexual, though, I don't
Speaker 19: try to get in a pool with five other dudes.
Speaker 13: So then you had to decide like what am I
Speaker 13: gonna do? Like am I gonna roll up in my
Speaker 13: bathing suit? Or am I gonna be one that just
Speaker 13: hangs out on the side of the pool.
Speaker 19: It's tough because then if all the other dads are in,
Speaker 19: you feel ostracized.
Speaker 13: I didn't know what it was gonna be like. I
Speaker 13: was like, no way, anybody's really gonna swim, but I'm
Speaker 13: gonna bring my swimsuit just in case every dude's flipping around.
Speaker 13: Out of the twelve dudes that showed up, hey John,
Speaker 13: throw me at floaty, Well, first we just sat on
Speaker 13: the back patio. Had to drink.
Speaker 9: Hey Jim dive Forard cannon Ball.
Speaker 13: Had to drink. Then we had a second drink, and
Speaker 13: then someone got in the nervous like, hey, we're gonna
Speaker 13: get in the pool. I was like, wean, I'll get in. Well,
Speaker 13: guys are wearing a banana amock ather. Dude is like
Speaker 13: I'm getting in.
Speaker 9: Guy gets it in his boxer.
Speaker 13: When guy's like, I'll hang my feet over the.
Speaker 9: Edge, that's why you can't do, dude.
Speaker 13: And one guy's like, I'll bring a chair over there
Speaker 13: and just watch a guy. That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 9: I'll throw my pool in the water.
Speaker 13: And so there was seven of us that got in
Speaker 13: the pool and three that put their feet over in
Speaker 13: two just satin chairs. That's life. And I mean, I'm
Speaker 13: gonna tell you what I get a text from Garrett
Speaker 13: at least once every couple of weeks. It says, hey, man,
Speaker 13: you going any guys pools night? Come on? But I
Speaker 13: will say the awkward part is the guy that hosted
Speaker 13: that night, that had us over him, had us in
Speaker 13: his pool. I've never seen him since. He ain't He
Speaker 13: ain't come around ever. Yeah, I got.
Speaker 19: Usually those gatherings lead to other things awkward when they don't.
Speaker 13: Well, it was just like, all right, man, well I'm
Speaker 13: gonna go ahead and go you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 13: I'm done swimming. Cool, you got a towel I can
Speaker 13: dry off with. All right, cool, Thanks, here's your towel back.
Speaker 20: Man.
Speaker 13: But he never He hadn't been to another dad's get
Speaker 13: together in over a year.
Speaker 19: Anytime you want with that towel back, I'll just drop
Speaker 19: it off on your porch tomorrow, man, like getting the
Speaker 19: front lawn.
Speaker 13: Man, it's been six months. I just found this in
Speaker 13: lawndry basket.
Speaker 5: There you go.
Speaker 12: Hey, it's Mike d And this week a movie Mike's
Speaker 12: Movie Podcast.
Speaker 11: My wife Kelsey and I.
Speaker 12: Gave our movies of the month, the best and worst
Speaker 12: movies that we saw in July. Letting you know what
Speaker 12: is worth your money to go see in theaters, where
Speaker 12: you should wait to stream at home, and what you
Speaker 12: should avoid altogether. I also gave my spoiler free review
Speaker 12: of the new m Night Shamalan movie Trap, so be
Speaker 12: sure to check out this full episode. But right now,
Speaker 12: here's just a little bit of Movie Mike's movie Podcast.
Speaker 11: What was the best movie you saw in July?
Speaker 4: No question?
Speaker 21: Twisters.
Speaker 11: It's a movie that we went to the theater twice
Speaker 11: to see.
Speaker 21: We have seen it twice in theaters. Now I would
Speaker 21: go again.
Speaker 12: I do want to see it in the forty X
Speaker 12: now because we saw it in Imax, we saw it
Speaker 12: in Standard and right after Twisters came out, Dead Pulling
Speaker 12: Wolverine came out and it took all the screenings of
Speaker 12: forty X out.
Speaker 11: But it's coming back for a week. I just could I.
Speaker 12: Convince you to go see it for a third time.
Speaker 12: I've never done that, I don't think ever. The only
Speaker 12: movies I've seen twice recently one with Blue Beetle because
Speaker 12: we took my mom to go see it.
Speaker 21: Before Black Panther twice once together, once with my family.
Speaker 11: And then before that.
Speaker 12: I think the last movie I saw twice in theaters
Speaker 12: was probably up, but Twisters.
Speaker 9: Was no question.
Speaker 12: Could we go to the forty X because I looked
Speaker 12: into it.
Speaker 11: Some of the.
Speaker 12: Forty X have where you wear the three D glasses too,
Speaker 12: so it's like fully immersive. I don't think I do that.
Speaker 12: I don't think Twisters is that way. I think it's
Speaker 12: just all the effects, the rumbling chairs, the wind, the
Speaker 12: spit in your face.
Speaker 21: I think I would turn the water feature off.
Speaker 11: I think you can. Yeah, you can control some of
Speaker 11: the levels.
Speaker 21: You could twist my arm.
Speaker 12: I just think if there's any movie that you would
Speaker 12: go see in forty X, I think it had to
Speaker 12: be that one.
Speaker 21: I mean, I'm not complaining about saying Twisters for a
Speaker 21: third time.
Speaker 12: Worst case scenario, we leave if it's two, because I
Speaker 12: think you can probably turn off the entire seat, right,
Speaker 12: I mean, you look a little lame with everybody else's
Speaker 12: having fun and you're just sitting there in a normal chair.
Speaker 21: I've just heard that like some people get motion sick.
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, the motions because you don't like roller coasters.
Speaker 21: I'm so anxious.
Speaker 12: I had to convince you in LA to get on
Speaker 12: the Simpsons ride, and that's a virtual reality ride, so
Speaker 12: You're not really going up and down.
Speaker 11: It's just motion.
Speaker 21: But my thing is with glasses. The older I've gotten,
Speaker 21: the more I get motion sick.
Speaker 19: Like.
Speaker 21: I went on a cruise with my family twice, and
Speaker 21: the first time I was perfectly fine, and then the
Speaker 21: last time we went, I was like, oh, I don't
Speaker 21: feel great. And then you and I went on that
Speaker 21: sunset cruise and Cobo, oh yeah, and about thirty minutes
Speaker 21: in I was like, this is a mistake. Like I
Speaker 21: just felt terrible and fun fact about that, I went
Speaker 21: downstairs to the bathroom because I thought I was gonna
Speaker 21: be sick, and I slept and fell and came back
Speaker 21: almost crying. It wasn't The views were great. Cobo was beautiful,
Speaker 21: but I just don't do well with boats.
Speaker 12: The picture we took at those famous arches was like, oh,
Speaker 12: like they had a perfect trip, and then that that
Speaker 12: was the one fun part of it.
Speaker 21: We do have. We have those pictures framed. They're great pictures.
Speaker 21: But yeah, real story was I was miserable. It was
Speaker 21: like unlimited drinks too of our ticket, and I was
Speaker 21: up there like can I get a spry I was
Speaker 21: like a seven up something, So yeah, I'm.
Speaker 20: Like that TikTok's out four thirty. If y'all haven't seen that,
Speaker 20: it's like a senior dog. And then the sound is
Speaker 20: the person being like when my senior dog thinks it's
Speaker 20: time for dinner. What time did you say dinner was four?
Speaker 9: Four thirty?
Speaker 14: Four thirty?
Speaker 21: Okay?
Speaker 9: Thanks?
Speaker 6: What time did you say we were eating at four thirty?
Speaker 6: Four thirty? Oh, four thirty? Okay, thank you.
Speaker 21: But yeah, I feel like the motions. I'd be willing
Speaker 21: to give it a try, though, if you're willing to
Speaker 21: leave if I don't feel good, I could be convinced.
Speaker 11: So still a five out of five.
Speaker 12: To watch A ten a second time in theaters, I
Speaker 12: picked up on more things. I still won't spoil it
Speaker 12: for anybody. I like going back to watch a movie
Speaker 12: because I know it's coming and then I can pay
Speaker 12: attention to those small little details that I didn't, you know,
Speaker 12: catch the first time, put all the pieces together, and
Speaker 12: I think after watching it for a second time, I
Speaker 12: did feel more of that camaraderie that I said it
Speaker 12: kind of lacked from yeah, from the first one, where
Speaker 12: I'm like, okay, I think it takes a few times
Speaker 12: to watch something to really feel that because I didn't
Speaker 12: really feel it chase it. I didn't get that chemistry
Speaker 12: the first time. I thought it was more focused on
Speaker 12: the two leads, but as I rewatched it, I was like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 12: there is some good camaraderie here. I still don't think
Speaker 12: it has the memorable quotes like the first one will have.
Speaker 21: There are some parts, but I also don't feel like
Speaker 21: the first one has much like tension. Yeah, if you
Speaker 21: catch my draft tension, I would rather just say sexual
Speaker 21: tension than ever hear you bark on this podcast again.
Speaker 21: Please stop.
Speaker 12: So for my best I always like to pick a
Speaker 12: different one than you. But I think if I I've
Speaker 12: seen the movie, so I think it would be Twisters.
Speaker 21: Wow, we're gonna have no.
Speaker 12: I decided to go with because I think I went
Speaker 12: into Twisters with really high expectations that were met. But
Speaker 12: for my best, I'm gonna go with the most unique
Speaker 12: in theater experience that I had that I think was
Speaker 12: the most memorable of July, even aside from Twisters. It
Speaker 12: was Long Legs because I've been looking for a scary
Speaker 12: movie that I could really immerse myself in, and also
Speaker 12: in a year where everybody's saying that there's so many
Speaker 12: remakes and reboots. When it comes to just any movie,
Speaker 12: especially in the horror genre, we usually get like, you know,
Speaker 12: Ten Jason's or Halloweens or whatever. So when it came
Speaker 12: to Long Legs, I was like, this is a great
Speaker 12: original horror movie. Didn't really reinvent the wheel, but I
Speaker 12: just loved it from the moment it started to the
Speaker 12: moment it finished. And I think it is a movie
Speaker 12: you have to kind of let yourself buy into it,
Speaker 12: because if you were just to see like a still
Speaker 12: from it, or if you went into it thinking I'm
Speaker 12: going to poke fun of this and it's not gonna
Speaker 12: scare me, then you're gonna be like, ah, this is
Speaker 12: a scary at all. But I think it goes the
Speaker 12: Long Legs mainly because I don't want to pick twisters
Speaker 12: the same.
Speaker 21: As you you could pick twisters.
Speaker 12: Because especially because a third time. But what was the
Speaker 12: worst for July? Because it wasn't really stag month, as
Speaker 12: I'll recap it here at the end.
Speaker 21: We saw it was a great month. I'm just gonna
Speaker 21: go Beverly Hills Cop four. You saw what it was,
Speaker 21: you turned it on on vacation, and I was like,
Speaker 21: this is, as my little brother would say, trash.
Speaker 12: I honestly thought it was going to be better. Well,
Speaker 12: I don't know why I did. I just thought Eddie
Speaker 12: Murphy coming back, that he would. I really think what
Speaker 12: it came down to is I was never a fan
Speaker 12: of that franchise. I think I kind of missed a
Speaker 12: boat on that, you know, being an eighties franchise.
Speaker 21: Bad Boys was better.
Speaker 11: Yeah, And I feel like.
Speaker 12: Those movies ended up being kind of similar, like old
Speaker 12: cops come back, try to do young things still, and
Speaker 12: I just don't really get into kind of the fun
Speaker 12: nature of the Beverly Hills cop movies. That entire movie
Speaker 12: was just him finding different vehicles to be chased in
Speaker 12: or to chase other people in. And I was like
Speaker 12: him and golf car, him in a helicopter, and that
Speaker 12: was really the entire movie. And it felt like it
Speaker 12: was a straight to cable type movie, which I feel
Speaker 12: that was like the biggest grape I've had with Netflix recently,
Speaker 12: is it just feels like just putting that really generic stuff.
Speaker 21: It's like a Lifetime movie a little bit. Yeah, But
Speaker 21: for dudes, listen, I used to love a Lifetime movie.
Speaker 21: Give me a Sunday afternoon and a Lifetime movie marathon.
Speaker 21: Slaps Carl. She's a queen and talking, so she's getting
Speaker 21: really not afraid to faces episode soul.
Speaker 17: Just let it flow.
Speaker 9: No one can do week.
Speaker 11: Carlne his time for Caroler.
Speaker 4: Okay, so I kind of want to hot back though.
Speaker 22: So the FIRSTMAS carriage you felt, oh yeah, so off track.
Speaker 4: It's okay, I love the track. I gotta come back.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the first one I felt so overwhelmed. I was
Speaker 3: just like letting that part of me that was not
Speaker 3: a mom, like, was never going to not be a
Speaker 3: mom again?
Speaker 4: I thought that.
Speaker 22: First one with the first miscarriage too, Actually, I was
Speaker 22: when I first found out I was pregnant the first time.
Speaker 4: It was not excitement, No, I wasn't ready yet. No, yeah,
Speaker 4: I just was this scary.
Speaker 22: And the miscarriage was the missage was devastating because then
Speaker 22: you finally get on board with it.
Speaker 3: It was the morning I felt excited enough to entertain
Speaker 3: a conversation with Dylan about like, so if we had.
Speaker 4: A boy, would you want to name it like it?
Speaker 3: That was the day I lost the pregnancy, so devastating,
Speaker 3: and I was shocked at I've said this before. On
Speaker 3: other I think I did like a podcast about miscarage
Speaker 3: one timement where I said this, but I was shocked
Speaker 3: at how devastated I was, for how anxious I was
Speaker 3: when I found out I was pregnant, and that kind
Speaker 3: of just made me go, Okay, I wanted to start trying,
Speaker 3: like you're never gonna be ready, You're just as he's
Speaker 3: going to be before you just actually do it.
Speaker 4: So I'm there.
Speaker 3: This was really freaking sad. Maybe we're more ready for
Speaker 3: this than I thought. And you know, I was very comforted.
Speaker 3: So many people told me, like a lot of women
Speaker 3: have one and then you know they had then you
Speaker 3: get pregnant right after, and then you have twins, and
Speaker 3: so I was like, okay, one is normal, one is
Speaker 3: super normal. It was a chemical pregnancy too, Like I
Speaker 3: never even made it to the doctor, so like one
Speaker 3: chemical pregnant.
Speaker 4: Life for babies was like so normal, normal. Just getting
Speaker 4: the uterus ready, yes, one.
Speaker 3: Hundred percent, you're really fertile, like a few months after
Speaker 3: you have one. So I was like, definitely devastated. I
Speaker 3: took two or three weeks and and God is really
Speaker 3: nice to me. I've told the story before, but I
Speaker 3: just feel like you need to say it again this girl.
Speaker 3: It was Drew Baldrid his wife actually.
Speaker 22: Can Balder's by the way, what about an independent art
Speaker 22: I know, I'm so excited for him and proud of him.
Speaker 4: I could although he's very big, but yeah, he's a
Speaker 4: huge man. But I mean I was so stu him.
Speaker 4: You've written with him a bunch, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: We were both signed to this music like back in
Speaker 3: the we kind of signed. Yeah, a publishing company. Amazing,
Speaker 3: so yeah we were we were publishing a fan for
Speaker 3: a while. But I'm I'm so stuked for him. But anyway,
Speaker 3: his wife, I hadn't doctor her in maybe like a year,
Speaker 3: year and a half, maybe two years, And it was
Speaker 3: the night after my miscarriage, my first miscarriage, and she
Speaker 3: texted me, girls, so random, hope you're doing good. But
Speaker 3: I had the most vivid dream last night that you
Speaker 3: had a baby. And I was like, well, that's guysy
Speaker 3: because I lost a baby last night. And she said,
Speaker 3: this is just this has to be Jesus reassuring you.
Speaker 3: She said, I saw it so clearly. You and Dylan
Speaker 3: were in the hospital. You were looking down at a baby,
Speaker 3: and you looked so in love. She was like, so
Speaker 3: just take that as a promise that like that's what
Speaker 3: I saw, and so I thought, wow, God, like thank
Speaker 3: you for this gift, like this picture that you could
Speaker 3: give me, Like I know what's going to happen.
Speaker 4: So I feel like once I went through the two.
Speaker 3: Weeks ish of like heavy grief after that first one,
Speaker 3: I was excited and like hopeful to try again and
Speaker 3: this time good. So my second one. And also, no
Speaker 3: one prepares you for, like the grief when you're trying
Speaker 3: and you take a test and it's negative. That's like
Speaker 3: the worst, like no one praising you spend your whole
Speaker 3: especially as a Christian GID, you spend your whole life
Speaker 3: trying to not get pregnant, and then like you start
Speaker 3: trying to get pregnant and you're like, wait, what is
Speaker 3: this mind effery?
Speaker 22: It's just like a whole there's a whole nother one
Speaker 22: when you get a positive one again though, because you
Speaker 22: can't fully be happy.
Speaker 4: Yeah it was. I got my second positive and I
Speaker 4: was like cautiously you're always a cautious excitement.
Speaker 3: Yes, cautiously happy, and that one was kind of wild.
Speaker 3: I had like a scare. They thought I was having
Speaker 3: a molar pregnancy, which is basically like you're instead of
Speaker 3: a baby growing like your years, fills up with the
Speaker 3: tumors and it's like they birth thrown words like chemotherapy around.
Speaker 3: It was awful, but it was a false alarm. I
Speaker 3: was not having more or pregnancy. It was just way
Speaker 3: earlier than they thought I was. So we ended up
Speaker 3: I ended up making it to eight weeks with that one.
Speaker 3: We saw the heart beat, so yeah, that was super,
Speaker 3: super exciting, and I remember that like all my friends
Speaker 3: were like, you need to get on progesterone. You need
Speaker 3: to get on progesterone, which is like obviously the hormone
Speaker 3: that helps pregnancy stick. And they were like, literally, by
Speaker 3: doctor put me on progesterone. That's what helped me keep
Speaker 3: the baby. So everybody kids telling me that. So I
Speaker 3: asked my doctor at like six weeks. I was like,
Speaker 3: we saw the heart beat, and I was like, should
Speaker 3: I get on progesterone just to make sure that you
Speaker 3: know it helps develop? And he was like, I mean,
Speaker 3: if you want it, I'll give it to you, but
Speaker 3: you have a heartbeat without it, so like and I
Speaker 3: just had this thought where I was like, God, I
Speaker 3: trust you like you brought me this far WITHO. I no, like,
Speaker 3: we'll just I won't get on it, like we'll continue.
Speaker 3: Two weeks later we go back and there's no more
Speaker 3: heart beat. And then three days after that is when
Speaker 3: I wrote Champagne and Sushi and that one I felt pissed.
Speaker 3: I was so mad, like I didn't feel sad, like
Speaker 3: I was sad, but I was like wildly angry. Who
Speaker 3: are you mad at God?
Speaker 22: I was just like, you're a dick. I told him,
Speaker 22: you say that in the song. Yeah, but wait, how
Speaker 22: do you say that? You say it so well?
Speaker 3: I said, it's the bridge.
Speaker 4: It's so good.
Speaker 3: Go it's oh yeah, it's like comes out of the
Speaker 3: second chorus. It's like, right now, my only silver lines
Speaker 3: are Champage and sushi, lighting up a joint, watching a movie, Uh,
Speaker 3: asking God, what the fuck is he doing causing when
Speaker 3: I pray, daring him to sue, we're telling him to
Speaker 3: sue me and hearing him say let it all out,
Speaker 3: You'll never lose me.
Speaker 22: Oh that's like if that's not like God in the
Speaker 22: raw form, I'm like, thank you so much for like
Speaker 22: not acting like we have to be perfect when we're
Speaker 22: having the worst moment of our life that you can
Speaker 22: like actually yell at God and tell God, like, what
Speaker 22: the actual hell, Like, I'm so fucking mad at you
Speaker 22: right now?
Speaker 4: Why is this happening? Like that's a relationship with God. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's a real relationship with God.
Speaker 3: That's what I tell myself when I read fuck You.
Speaker 4: But it's not.
Speaker 22: It's not like it's like you're just it's like a
Speaker 22: parent when you're so mad at your parent, but like
Speaker 22: you know, they still love you and they're like looking
Speaker 22: out for you or whatever. But it's like God, it's like,
Speaker 22: how can this happen?
