Speaker 2: are you ready to answer questions?
Speaker 1: I'm ready. As long as there are no hot dog questions,
Speaker 1: there's no more.
Speaker 2: I put them all on the part one. So if
Speaker 2: you want to know Eddie's thoughts, feelings, emotions on everything
Speaker 2: related to hot dogs, go listen to part one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all there. I spilled it all out. Hey,
Speaker 1: I threw it all up over there for you.
Speaker 2: We didn't need that hot dog talk.
Speaker 1: It's all thrown up over there.
Speaker 2: Most because he doesn't want to talk about it anymore.
Speaker 2: So just go listen to that one. Some shout outs.
Speaker 2: If I could do a lunch with the group, you
Speaker 2: two would be the best duo I hang with.
Speaker 1: And that is like, yes, you don't you trust me?
Speaker 1: You want to have lunch with us too?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Eddie and I are pretty fun.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you why lunchbox would eat all your food,
Speaker 1: Like I'm not kidding. You think I'm joking. Like He'll
Speaker 1: be like, well, what is that? And you'll tell him
Speaker 1: and they be like, and he won't even ask you,
Speaker 1: just grab it. You don't want to that Amy, I
Speaker 1: mean she'll diagnose you with some kind of disorder. And
Speaker 1: then Bobby, Man, I don't even know he'll talk to you.
Speaker 2: We are growing this morning, Eddie.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Bobby will talk to you now
Speaker 1: he will, but but for sure we're the best. Scuba
Speaker 1: would be kind of fun. Ray you get fed up,
Speaker 1: They're gonna be drinks sling. I mean we'll probably have
Speaker 1: some drinks too, right, yeah, we both have what are
Speaker 1: we doing lunch?
Speaker 2: Yeah, go have some Mexican food and Margarita's love it
Speaker 2: because that's your favorite.
Speaker 1: Love it. Margarita is the best because of your No, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's my go to. That's my go to. For sure.
Speaker 2: I just made sure everybody knows.
Speaker 1: Morgan, that's weird.
Speaker 2: Amy from Orlando says, I love in all caps you.
Speaker 1: Eddie, I love you. Who is that Amy? Yeah? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: it's Amy. She's acting like.
Speaker 2: I'm from Orlando. Are all right? Pregnant with my first?
Speaker 2: Would love parenting tips from Eddie the dad Morgan in Mississippi.
Speaker 1: Also, Morgan, are you pregnant? Oh man? This is awesome?
Speaker 1: Having a baby's awesome. It's just an amazing thing. Let
Speaker 1: me give you the best advice. Don't And it's gonna
Speaker 1: sound stupid because like, oh, okay, that's easier said than done.
Speaker 1: But don't worry. Like a lot of people worry about
Speaker 1: having their first baby, you're going to realize when you
Speaker 1: have your second baby and your third baby, and if
Speaker 1: you want to have more babies, you're going to realize, like, man,
Speaker 1: I was taking things way too serious with my first
Speaker 1: because it's your first, and it's natural to worry about like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, am I is are they eating enough?
Speaker 1: Like are they? Why are they crying so much? Why
Speaker 1: they like? Trust me. Doctors are great to kind of
Speaker 1: walk you through these things. Your parents, they've been through it.
Speaker 1: Listen to them or anyone else that you trust that
Speaker 1: has been parents. Listen to them. We've been through it.
Speaker 1: It all works out like and and somehow I remember
Speaker 1: bringing our first born home and being like, what do
Speaker 1: we do with this thing? Like right, and that's a
Speaker 1: natural thing.
Speaker 2: What happens now.
Speaker 1: The fact that they trusted me and I was like
Speaker 1: twenty eight, maybe twenty nine, twenty seven, I don't remember.
Speaker 1: But the fact that they trusted me to take that
Speaker 1: little baby, put it in a car seat and drive
Speaker 1: it home and get it out and put it in
Speaker 1: our house. Like that was weird to me. This cannot
Speaker 1: be legal, right, Like you just let me and my wife,
Speaker 1: who's like just delivered the baby, like take it home,
Speaker 1: and now we don't know what to do, and there's
Speaker 1: no manual that says like, all right, you do this.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can google stuff and it tells you
Speaker 1: what to do, but like these instincts just kick in
Speaker 1: where like it just tells you what to do and
Speaker 1: it's I would just say, enjoy it. Don't stress so
Speaker 1: much about it. The baby's gonna be okay if it's
Speaker 1: doing something abnormal. Doctors are really good on like walking
Speaker 1: you through that kind of stuff. But like, other than that,
Speaker 1: enjoy it. It's an awesome, beautiful thing.
Speaker 2: Definitely easier said than done.
Speaker 1: Easier said than done. But you don't realize it till
Speaker 1: after you have your first baby and you have your second,
Speaker 1: where you're like, man, I should have enjoyed our first
Speaker 1: a little more because like you're so stressed out because
Speaker 1: it is stressful. It's like it's so weird and foreign
Speaker 1: to us. That we're taking care of a baby.
Speaker 2: You just grew this human inside of you and now
Speaker 2: it's all a sudden outside of you.
Speaker 1: Yes, but we're meant to do that and like we're
Speaker 1: equipped to do that, and it's just it's a good thing.
Speaker 1: So just enjoy it.
Speaker 2: That's a good piece of advice. And my sister's about
Speaker 2: to have her first kids.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see her being a mom. I don't
Speaker 2: think they're freaking out.
Speaker 1: Yet, yeah, because she hasn't had it.
Speaker 2: But the carrier just arrived. The what do they call it?
Speaker 2: Why can't I come up with it?
Speaker 1: You mean, like the yeah, the carrier, like the baby carrier?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, carry right, Yeah, so many baby things I bought,
Speaker 2: but yeah, no, I bought a bunch of baby stuff
Speaker 2: for them. I did, like a little advent calendar, baby
Speaker 2: advent calendar for them to open up stuff.
Speaker 1: That's another thing too, And not not to slam your calendar,
Speaker 1: which is cute, it's awesome, but like, don't buy too
Speaker 1: much stuff. You don't need a lot of things. Like
Speaker 1: I remember what what would frustrate me is we would
Speaker 1: buy all kinds of toys and then he would just
Speaker 1: play with the toilet paper roll, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, and that's funny. I didn't buy I think
Speaker 2: I bought one toy. The rest of it was like
Speaker 2: things for mom, things for you know, all the after
Speaker 2: care what happens, and it's all on a redistry. Is
Speaker 2: all stuff she wanted.
Speaker 1: And it's cute to buy them, like you know, brand
Speaker 1: name little onesies, but don't get like a bunch because
Speaker 1: that onesie you're gonna end up giving it away or
Speaker 1: like giving it to someone else in like two months.
Speaker 2: Because they grow so fast, so fast. Good tips. How
Speaker 2: is the chicken business? Carrie from Springfield, Missouri.
Speaker 1: So the chicken business is nonexistent. I haven't made a
Speaker 1: chicken in like I would say, about a couple months.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've been busy with hot dogs.
Speaker 1: I've been eating hot dogs. But but I am working
Speaker 1: on something and we're moving. We're moving on something that's
Speaker 1: not chicken, but we're getting closer and closer.
Speaker 2: It. Okay, this is exciting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's really exciting.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to hear about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it happens. Yeah yeah, Okay, it's very exciting.
Speaker 1: And it's a slow role because like just everything I
Speaker 1: do is a slow role, but like we're actually moving.
Speaker 1: Stuff's getting registered, stuff's getting like official, stuff's moving.
Speaker 2: Okay, I love this for you.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so Chicken know something else in the works.
Speaker 2: Daniel wants to know. Are you more of a what
Speaker 2: a burger breakfast sandwich person or burger person?
Speaker 1: Burger person? I've never been like a taketo Like what
Speaker 1: a burger breakfast guy? They have taketo's, Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know if they have them everywhere, Like I don't know,
Speaker 1: I haven't. I really haven't had one in a long time.
Speaker 1: But like I remember, yeah, they would have good ones,
Speaker 1: but I just wasn't a breakfast what a burger guy?
Speaker 2: Do you like breakfast sandwiches in general?
Speaker 1: Not really?
Speaker 2: Oh I love a breakfast, Sammy.
Speaker 1: Breakfast for me is like, and this has only been
Speaker 1: in the last five years. It's like a fuel thing.
Speaker 1: Like it's it's never like unless like it's a Saturday
Speaker 1: morning and the kids are like, hey, Dad, will you
Speaker 1: make me whatever? Then we'll make like pancakes and all
Speaker 1: that stuff. But for me, like breakfast is like you've seen.
Speaker 2: Me two wellld egg you're two eggs in your banana.
Speaker 1: And a banana like and fruit like whatever bowl fruit
Speaker 1: and like yogurt like that's it. Like I try not
Speaker 1: to make breakfast a big deal, but unless it's the weekend,
Speaker 1: then we'll make it a big deal.
Speaker 2: That's fair. I think I've turned into the same way.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just what happens when you become an adult,
Speaker 2: or maybe okay, I actually need something just to save
Speaker 2: me throughout the day. And we're pancakes and.
Speaker 1: We're kind of always running, like you know, it's always
Speaker 1: just like quick, I gotta get some in my stomach
Speaker 1: so I can go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know that's that's a funny part. My
Speaker 2: boyfriend will make me in the morning when he stays over.
Speaker 2: He always makes me scrambled eggs with cottage cheese. He
Speaker 2: does my favorite thing.
Speaker 1: Does he see you off? Yeah, he packs your little breakfast.
Speaker 2: We leave at the same time, so he'll like make
Speaker 2: but it always takes me longer to get ready, right
Speaker 2: because of course I makeup my hair and everything, and
Speaker 2: he always like has thirty extra minutes. He'll just go
Speaker 2: down and make me eggs, like here you go. So
Speaker 2: now I actually eat before work, which never used to
Speaker 2: be the case.
Speaker 1: Are they good? They're so to be honest, be honest.
Speaker 2: He makes them better than I do, really, And I
Speaker 2: can't have scrambled eggs now without cotta cheese. They make
Speaker 2: it so much fluffy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, heard of that, and cheesier.
Speaker 2: It's just youngier.
Speaker 1: So do you put cheese in them too?
Speaker 2: A little bit? But not we put nutritional yeast on it.
Speaker 2: I'm really trying to up my yeast in game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, never heard of that.
Speaker 2: It's like it's supposed to. It's very minimal protein, but
Speaker 2: it's an additive. That's cheese. It's like if you added spice. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: it's just like that, but it's cheesy and it has
Speaker 2: like three grams of protein.
Speaker 1: So why are you trying to get your protein out?
Speaker 2: I just I'm working on my health pretty hard, paying
Speaker 2: really attention to I thinks I'm consuming trying to get
Speaker 2: rid of a long COVID.
Speaker 1: That is always a good thing. Give my smell back, Yes,
Speaker 1: that's the goal, so you can start smelling the things
Speaker 1: around here.
Speaker 2: Okay, Eddie, I have to ask you this.
Speaker 1: Because is it a hard question.
Speaker 2: It's not a hard question, but it's one that you
Speaker 2: and I have already talked about. Okay, and we talked
Speaker 2: about this right after it happened. But I keep getting
Speaker 2: people who love to roll into my dms and bring
Speaker 2: it up. Julian asked me to ask you how you
Speaker 2: feel that I compared your dad's death to my.
Speaker 1: Relationship for people still talk to you about that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I still on the daily all the time get
Speaker 2: hit up for this, So Eddie, I would like you
Speaker 2: to finally respond to because for some reason, the Internet
Speaker 2: feels a certain way guys like like I would let
Speaker 2: this one go.
Speaker 1: I would like I would just kind of let it go.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a big deal to me, you know, like
Speaker 1: death is death, obviously, Yes, my my father's death was tough,
Speaker 1: and I think it was good when we talked about
Speaker 1: it here, Like I really didn't have anyone. I had
Speaker 1: a few friends that I talked to about it, but
Speaker 1: like a long form conversation about that with you was
Speaker 1: really good and helpful, like I think, and I honestly
Speaker 1: don't even it didn't stand out to me that like
Speaker 1: that was even happening. I think you talking about what
Speaker 1: you were going through me talking about what I was
Speaker 1: going through kind of worked, just bouncing off each other.
Speaker 1: I don't think it was anything I didn't. I not
Speaker 1: once did I think like that's weird, she's comparing a
Speaker 1: dog to my dad, Like, no, so I would let
Speaker 1: the son go. Yeah. I thought it was helpful. The
Speaker 1: conversation was very helpful, and I'm glad I got to
Speaker 1: talk about it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I felt like we were healing together. Yeah, that
Speaker 2: was a podcast that was beneficial. Listen, guys, I would
Speaker 2: never I would never ever do that to anybody. That
Speaker 2: would never be my intention. But Eddie is someone who
Speaker 2: we have great conversations. Yeah, and I felt also talking
Speaker 2: about that would take away me making him spend an
Speaker 2: hour of talking about something that's really hard.
Speaker 1: And sure, like and what are you gonna do? Ask questions?
Speaker 1: Just sit there like no, I mean you were definitely
Speaker 1: there were definitely things when you're grieving. You're grieving like
Speaker 1: it's just whatever it is, and which is weird. It
Speaker 1: really is weird to think about that, like like a
Speaker 1: dog's death versus human death.
Speaker 2: The breakup.
Speaker 1: What, oh, I'm sorry the breakup. Yes, I was thinking
Speaker 1: of something else. Sorry no, no, no, I was thinking of a lunchbox.
Speaker 1: But yeah, like yes, the breakup, and it's I know
Speaker 1: it's different. I know it's completely different, but like you're
Speaker 1: talking about stuff like this pain like it. I honestly,
Speaker 1: it did not stand out to me. It didn't be
Speaker 1: like wow, I can't believe this is happening. I'd there
Speaker 1: you go and even like back that up with like
Speaker 1: I why did not even say dog's death, Like, I
Speaker 1: don't even know why I thought that. I think I
Speaker 1: was thinking about lunchboxes.
Speaker 2: But well, and he just had brought it up on
Speaker 2: Best Bits last week.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, and I didn't hear it, and
Speaker 1: I saw people talking about it, and I want to
Speaker 1: go back and listen to it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really hard, and I like that's why
Speaker 2: I love Best Bits. I feel like it's a space
Speaker 2: that we can sit here safely and just talk about
Speaker 2: stuff that's going on. Because the show we're in compact
Speaker 2: times where you have to do certain things. This gives
Speaker 2: us the space to just like human and talk about things.
Speaker 2: But Eddie, in case there is any inklean of you
Speaker 2: that felt that way, I'm very sorry.
Speaker 1: I want to be honest with you. Not one ounce
Speaker 1: of it, like didn't even think twice about it.
Speaker 2: Well, Julian. Julian and a very handful group of people
Speaker 2: would love for me to address.
Speaker 1: That, and I don't do you want to say, Julian,
Speaker 1: thank you for bringing that up for the last time,
Speaker 1: so we will no longer talk about that.
Speaker 2: I remember because this got brought up after that episode aired,
Speaker 2: and I want to say it was about a year ago.
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, we're at the year. We're at the year mark.
Speaker 2: And I remember coming up to you after that episode
Speaker 2: aired and I saw a lot of those comments. I said, Eddie,
Speaker 2: did I like do something wrong here? Did I make
Speaker 2: you feel any certain way? Did I go about this
Speaker 2: the wrong way? And you were like, Morgan, stop listening
Speaker 2: to stupid people on the internet. That was your responts me.
Speaker 1: I just I just think that, you know, it's it's
Speaker 1: easy to just tell someone like why did you say that?
Speaker 1: Why did you talk? Why would you do that? But like, honestly,
Speaker 1: it's not easy to talk about that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: So like, yeah, we're being very natural here, and I
Speaker 1: think that conversation was very natural, and that's what we
Speaker 1: would be talking, that's how we would be talking outside
Speaker 1: of this room about our lives, and so like, I
Speaker 1: didn't think twice about it, Morgan, so.
Speaker 2: Well, I just wanted to give you space to finally
Speaker 2: respond because I finally moved to the questions. I was like,
Speaker 2: dang it, Okay, that's funny. We're gonna take a break.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back. Okay, a few more questions. The
Speaker 2: hard stuff's over.
Speaker 1: Oh that was it? That was it? Okay, good, all right?
Speaker 2: Looking back to when the show first started, looking back,
Speaker 2: were you the only one that was married with kids?
Speaker 1: This is interesting. So when we first when we moved
Speaker 1: to Nashville, when I joined the show, I was the
Speaker 1: only parent on the show. And I wasn't supposed to
Speaker 1: be on air, Like it wasn't like I was just
Speaker 1: a video guy. I came on because I'd done the
Speaker 1: TV my whole career. Never was a radio guy. And
Speaker 1: Bobby was like, I need to I need a TV
Speaker 1: guy on, Like I need a video aspect to this
Speaker 1: show because it was really before any kind of like
Speaker 1: big digital internet and internet a digital social media stuff.
Speaker 1: Like Bobby was way ahead of it where he was
Speaker 1: just like, we need to get a visual part of
Speaker 1: this of our show, a daily visual. They would do
Speaker 1: little things here and there, Lunchbox would take his camera
Speaker 1: out in the street or whatever.
Speaker 2: But like Lunchbox would oh my gosh, I need to
Speaker 2: go back.
Speaker 1: And watch it. Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, there's some
Speaker 1: good stuff, but like a daily visual. It was kind
Speaker 1: of like that was my job. But I was the
Speaker 1: only parent, so whenever there was any kind of parenting
Speaker 1: question or a parenting conversation, they'd be like, Eddie, get
Speaker 1: on the mic. I didn't have my own mic, so
Speaker 1: I would just like kind of walk over, and then
Speaker 1: it went from there to like, all right, give Eddie
Speaker 1: a mike, and then it went from there too, I'm
Speaker 1: just sitting at the mic the whole time to like
Speaker 1: now I still do videos, but I'm talking the whole time.
Speaker 2: That crazy.
Speaker 1: It is very crazy, and it's fun to tell that
Speaker 1: story to people that are just tuning in to the show,
Speaker 1: like people like, hey, I've never really listened to you show.
Speaker 1: I listened to it the other day. It's really cool.
Speaker 1: How did you get started? And like, let me tell
Speaker 1: you this is my story. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Do the foster kids ever ask about their bio parents
Speaker 2: and will they ever get to the chance to meet
Speaker 2: their bios? This is from Madison.
Speaker 1: Madison is a deep question. Yes, so one of them's older,
Speaker 1: one of them's younger, the younger one we got when
Speaker 1: he was a baby, so it's easier for him to
Speaker 1: not ask about his biological parents because he's all, we know,
Speaker 1: never met them. I mean he met them, but he
Speaker 1: doesn't remember them at all, and so to him, we
Speaker 1: are his parents. And then the older one has memories
Speaker 1: of you know, he came to our house when he
Speaker 1: was four, so he has memories of his biological parents,
Speaker 1: so he talks about them more. He's going through therapy now,
Speaker 1: which is awesome, Which is so cool to see him
Speaker 1: come out of therapy and be much happier. It's and
Speaker 1: he's not a he's not like a sad kid, and
Speaker 1: he's not like a kid that's always down. But when
Speaker 1: he comes out of therapy and whenever he opens up,
Speaker 1: which it's taken a long time for him to open
Speaker 1: up in therapy, but whenever he does, there's a smile
Speaker 1: on his face. His day is better. He's chipper, he's
Speaker 1: laughing more because there is a sense of like, more understanding.
Speaker 1: Every time he goes to therapy, he understands more of
Speaker 1: what happened, more of his of his story, and more
Speaker 1: he realizes it's not his fault. Because kids grow up
Speaker 1: thinking it's their fault, which is bizarre, but unfortunately it's
Speaker 1: the reality of like any kind of situation like that
Speaker 1: where they just think that, like, why didn't they want me?
Speaker 1: It's my fault, it's me. And then when they get
Speaker 1: in trouble here like you don't I'm in trouble because
Speaker 1: you don't like me, got it? No, it's not the case. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: he asks more questions about them than the younger one does.
Speaker 1: Younger one understands he's we've had to talk with him,
Speaker 1: but he's kind of like, okay, cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it didn't affect him. He wasn't. He doesn't have
Speaker 2: the memories, he doesn't have the pieces to reference.
Speaker 1: We uh, probably we're predicting. Maybe the more questions will
Speaker 1: come up later. It'll affect him a little later in
Speaker 1: life when he's older. Yeah, you know, but now that
Speaker 1: he's younger and no, not so much. Like he's six,
Speaker 1: so not so much. But we haven't crossed that bridge
Speaker 1: about you know, getting to see their bios again. But
Speaker 1: I'm we're never opposed to it. It's just going to
Speaker 1: be whatever they.
Speaker 2: Want, yeah, and just whatever is the best thing for.
Speaker 1: Correct the kids correct, And then you have to analyze,
Speaker 1: like what where they are or are they in their life?
Speaker 1: You know, Like honestly, my oldest, the our oldest son
Speaker 1: that we adopted, like he thought that they were dead
Speaker 1: in his mind forever. Like he just thought they figured
Speaker 1: they were dead.
Speaker 2: So, you know, a lot of hard conversations.
Speaker 1: Hard conversations, but they have to be had, and it's
Speaker 1: always better when we have them. And it's always better
Speaker 1: when he talks about it more and the more he
Speaker 1: wants to talk about it, Like, so we're getting there, and.
Speaker 2: How old you said the baby is? Now? I thought
Speaker 2: you said that.
Speaker 1: How he's six? Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 2: How have six years gone by?
Speaker 1: Man? You're telling me like they just fly by? Morgan
Speaker 1: like he was insane because we fostered for I mean
Speaker 1: we they were our foster children quote unquote for four
Speaker 1: through almost four years, you know, so like that's kind
Speaker 1: of why it feels like because it feels like we
Speaker 1: just adopted them because we kind of just did. But
Speaker 1: they've been part of our family for so long.
Speaker 2: That's insane, you know what I mean? Yeaeah, that feels
Speaker 2: like it hasn't been that long since I was adopted.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: Heck, it hasn't even been that long since, like you were, like,
Speaker 2: my wife really wants.
Speaker 1: Us to foster. Gosh, I know, I know. It's such
Speaker 1: a weird thing to look back.
Speaker 2: Life is crazy.
Speaker 1: Yes it is.
Speaker 2: I'm going a little broke here, but because it is,
Speaker 2: we're kind of at that one year mark. How are
Speaker 2: you doing? How's your mom doing? How's your brother?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I talked to my mom yesterday. It's a hard
Speaker 1: time for her. It's hard time for all of us
Speaker 1: because it's the first year. Like we've never done anything
Speaker 1: like this, Like we've never so it's it's funny. It's interesting,
Speaker 1: interesting to see how everyone grieves differently. You know, Like
Speaker 1: my mom is like she wants to like have a
Speaker 1: kind of a thing for his one year anniversary, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, do we have a thing for a death anniversary?
Speaker 1: And and and we had the conversation yesterday and she's like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like I don't know Dowey, Like, uh
Speaker 1: so she she kind of dedicated, she's dedicating a like
Speaker 1: church mass for him back in Texas, and so like
Speaker 1: it we're just kind of learning, you know.
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a right answer either way. I
Speaker 2: think it feels weird not to recognize it, and it
Speaker 2: also probably feels weird to celebrate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, even for me, even the remembering
Speaker 1: is like weird, Like I like her, I love to
Speaker 1: remember his birthday. I love to remember, you know, like
Speaker 1: certain days. But for me, the day he died is
Speaker 1: like I'll always remember it. But I'm like, do I
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to or not. It's
Speaker 1: a weird thing that I've never ever experienced. So talk
Speaker 1: to my mom about that yesterday. She's doing well considering
Speaker 1: you know how hard it is for I can't believe
Speaker 1: it's been a year. Mm hmm, Like that's crazy to us.
Speaker 1: And then just probably you.
