Speaker 1: The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan.
Speaker 2: It's Listener Q and Daytime.
Speaker 1: We're Morgan in a show member answer almost all your questions.
Speaker 2: Here we are Part three Listener Q and A.
Speaker 1: Here we are.
Speaker 2: We got some notes from listeners, Eddie, Okay, it's for
Speaker 2: both of us. Think. Yeah, I tell negatives sometimes that
Speaker 2: they're just like funny.
Speaker 1: Are the telling us like, hey, this is what you
Speaker 1: should do better?
Speaker 2: No, like sometimes I'll give suggestions and stuff.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: This, Lisa from California says she doesn't want you to
Speaker 2: do the hair transplant. You look great and you should
Speaker 2: own it.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Lisa.
Speaker 2: See these are good ones.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I like that.
Speaker 2: Kathy from Boston wanted to say she loves the Best
Speaker 2: Bitch Show.
Speaker 1: So shout out, shout out.
Speaker 2: Kathy Sierra from New York says we're her two favorite
Speaker 2: on the show. Yeah, great shout out. And then Ibby
Speaker 2: actually send me an email from a caller who was
Speaker 2: hoping that maybe on the Best Bits I could start
Speaker 2: listening TV shows that the show suggested each week. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna look into this one, but I'm not sure if
Speaker 2: I can make it work because we kind of like
Speaker 2: randomly s shows and sometimes it happens off of show,
Speaker 2: sometimes during the show. I don't know if it's all
Speaker 2: done in the same week.
Speaker 1: But she is right though, I would say, like every
Speaker 1: week someone talks about a show.
Speaker 2: I know, but like, so every week, do I just
Speaker 2: be like Amy mentioned American Nightmare. Okay, okay, so yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: so I gotta find a way to do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's once a month where I'm like gathering them all.
Speaker 2: This is gonna be hard to keep track though.
Speaker 1: I think I think we're doing a pretty good job
Speaker 1: though as a show to cover what's out there. We
Speaker 1: are because like really there's a lot of TV out there,
Speaker 1: and I mean I don't really contribute a lot to it,
Speaker 1: but like a lot of you guys watch a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff, and I love hearing about it from you
Speaker 1: all because well at.
Speaker 2: Least helps because there's so much to filter through to decide.
Speaker 1: About to watch exactly. Sometimes it takes me an hour
Speaker 1: just to find out what I'm gonna watch, like searching everything.
Speaker 2: I will say, though, Twitter, you should follow us on X, Twitter,
Speaker 2: X whatever you want to call it. I always live
Speaker 2: tweet when we talk about shows always, so if you
Speaker 2: follow that, you'll get those updates in real time. I
Speaker 2: think that's the only place that I put it, like
Speaker 2: all the time. Listener Q and A. Okay you ready, ready, Okay,
Speaker 2: we're kicking off because Jane from Ohi, did I say
Speaker 2: that right? My friend's a little foggies. I can't really
Speaker 2: don't think where's are coming off for Vertigo?
Speaker 1: Yeah you said that right?
Speaker 2: Okay. Jane from Ohio wants to know how often you're
Speaker 2: working out eat Shane, how it's going.
Speaker 1: Ooh, good question. So Jane, we work out about three
Speaker 1: days a week, but I've added a fourth day, not
Speaker 1: not just by myself, because the three days a week
Speaker 1: is Bobby. We have a trainer, so Bobby and I
Speaker 1: work out together. The trainer goes to Bobby's house and
Speaker 1: sometimes Ben Rector, the artist, he shows up. I'd say Ben,
Speaker 1: I'd say, Ben is like a two days a week guy.
Speaker 1: He like he always says like, yeah, yeah, man, three days.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it three days a week, and then
Speaker 1: like this the third days, like yeah, man, I got
Speaker 1: to write a song with someone, and yeah he's busy dude.
Speaker 1: So whenever we get him, it's always a pleasure, right,
Speaker 1: It's great, it's cool and I like having been there
Speaker 1: because it slows the rotation down. Oh, so you don't
Speaker 1: have toes the three man rotation. We get a little
Speaker 1: more break with that. So when Ben shows up, I
Speaker 1: love it.
Speaker 2: Does Bobby compete with you when you all are working out?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Or is it just pretty solo? Well, because like when
Speaker 2: you're in a workout environment in general, you accidentally kind
Speaker 2: of compete with people. Does that make sense?
Speaker 1: Well, we hold each other accountable, so, like I think more,
Speaker 1: Bobby always goes first. So basically, the trainer has been
Speaker 1: working with Bobby a lot longer than any of us,
Speaker 1: so he focuses the workout around Bobby. The rest of
Speaker 1: us kind of have to keep up, got it and
Speaker 1: Bobby's and he's gonna love this. But Bobby is always
Speaker 1: a little heavier than us, like weight in the weights,
Speaker 1: I would say ten to fifteen pounds more than me
Speaker 1: and Ben, but I will say proudly it's Bobby and
Speaker 1: then me a little heavier and then ben'zi loois.
Speaker 2: Well, that's impressive for like you have to remember too,
Speaker 2: Bobby's been working out every day for years.
Speaker 1: For years, for a long long time.
Speaker 2: In the last year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, impressive, Yes, I'd say I'm about ten ten pounds
Speaker 1: below Bobby as far as the weights that we.
Speaker 2: Week, you feel stronger, healthier.
Speaker 1: I feel stronger for sure, healthier. I mean, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I've been working on that. I feel exhausted, Like I
Speaker 1: feel exhausted every day, and so kind of that's kind
Speaker 1: of what I don't like about it. And then the
Speaker 1: trainers always just like, don't you guys love this, and
Speaker 1: we're like, no, we hate it. We don't like this
Speaker 1: at all. But so those are the three days a week,
Speaker 1: and then on Wednesdays that's our day off. My son,
Speaker 1: my sixteen year old, goes to a like a Bible study. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like on the other side of town,
Speaker 1: so it's like a twenty minute drive to get there,
Speaker 1: and so there's for me, it's a two hour Bible study.
Speaker 1: So I don't ever like go back home. I'd rather
Speaker 1: just drop them off and then like do something hang out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but what I used to do is just sit in
Speaker 1: the parking lot and watch like basketball on my phone
Speaker 1: for two hours, like really or just kind of like
Speaker 1: or maybe I'd take work with me whatever, I'd sit
Speaker 1: in the car. And then I realized there was a
Speaker 1: YMCA by there, and so I was like, I have
Speaker 1: a membership to all the YMCAs in the area. So
Speaker 1: so like two weeks ago, I was like, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna go in and just like work out a little bit.
Speaker 1: So I started doing that.
Speaker 2: Good job.
Speaker 1: I have a basket, they have a basketball court, so
Speaker 1: I'll just shoot hoops. Then I'll run on the on
Speaker 1: the what do you call elliptical? Yeah, and then I
Speaker 1: feel like it.
Speaker 2: You have a little elliptical runner. Oh yeah, I like
Speaker 2: it watching your basketball while you're doing the elliptical.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what I do. I watched my basketball and
Speaker 1: I've bet on it too. I've been a lot of
Speaker 1: basketball games. But but what I like Wednesday for is
Speaker 1: my cardio is not that great, so I kind of
Speaker 1: like use that to just do cardio stuff so I'm
Speaker 1: not so like tired when we do our workouts.
Speaker 2: No, that's good. Yeah, I'm so proud of you.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: That was good.
Speaker 1: Up, Thank you. But March is going to be my
Speaker 1: anniversary for working out with Bobby and the trainer.
Speaker 2: You're going to make it a year, a whole years.
Speaker 1: You can change your life, you can't change your life.
Speaker 2: So proud. Okay, let's talk about in the last year
Speaker 2: you were saying how like you're kind of exhausted, and
Speaker 2: even in the part one you kind of mentioned it too.
Speaker 2: Lauren and Virginia wants to know how your mental health
Speaker 2: is doing, because like a couple of months ago, did
Speaker 2: to check in and you're like, I don't feel great.
Speaker 2: You did the what was what was our advertise that
Speaker 2: you worked with Better Help?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, Better Help was awesome.
Speaker 2: Did some therapy. So how are you feeling? Where are
Speaker 2: you now?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I'm a lot better as far as
Speaker 1: like the family goes. Like I always talk about my kids.
Speaker 1: I love my boys, but like it's a lot. It's
Speaker 1: just a lot because there's when you kind of deal
Speaker 1: with one issue with one of the boys, then there's
Speaker 1: another issue with one of the other boys, and it's
Speaker 1: just it's like whack the mole, you know, all right,
Speaker 1: whack the mole, all right, dealt with that problem. Boom,
Speaker 1: and then another one pops right up on the other side,
Speaker 1: Like all right, let's deal with this one, and then
Speaker 1: boom and then and then it's like what your grades
Speaker 1: are bad again? Like we just dealt with this, Like
Speaker 1: why are we dealing with this? And so there was
Speaker 1: a time when it was really it was tough because
Speaker 1: my wife and I just felt like every day we
Speaker 1: were dealing with something like every single day, and then
Speaker 1: on top of that, you're kind of in the same
Speaker 1: routine of things every single day. We do this, we
Speaker 1: do that, we pick them up, we take them to practice,
Speaker 1: we go home, and then we're exhausting, we go to bed,
Speaker 1: and then we wake up and we do it all
Speaker 1: over again. And then the weekend comes, ooh, time to rest.
Speaker 1: At no time to rest, because now it's games like, Oh,
Speaker 1: I got to take them to games. You gotta take
Speaker 1: them to that game. Oh, this game is at the
Speaker 1: same time as the other game. You got to take
Speaker 1: them to that game. And then you go over there,
Speaker 1: Oh we haven't eaten. Oh crap, I gotta go pick
Speaker 1: up food. And it's just like that constantly, And so
Speaker 1: I think we kind of have a grip on it
Speaker 1: a little better. Yeah, we got to grip on it
Speaker 1: a little better. And I know one that's been bugging
Speaker 1: me a lot is just like finances, because it's expensive
Speaker 1: to have four boys, four kids.
Speaker 2: It's expensive to just be by yourself. I can't imagine
Speaker 2: having a whole freaking family.
Speaker 1: And it kind of pisses me off that like everything
Speaker 1: I make goes like away so quickly, you know, so like.
Speaker 2: Hey, this is also why we need to get you
Speaker 2: in investments and don't listen to latch box.
Speaker 1: No, no, I know, and not those kind of investments.
Speaker 2: No, Like I can help you more than he can help.
Speaker 1: But that's the scary thing. It's like, man, we spend
Speaker 1: so our expenses are so much because of like everything
Speaker 1: that that we need for the kids, and I don't
Speaker 1: spend anything on myself. Like really, I have forty dollars
Speaker 1: a month that I gamble with and that's it. Like
Speaker 1: I don't don't buy I don't like go I don't
Speaker 1: buy coffee, I don't go out to eat, I don't
Speaker 1: I play golf, but I haven't golfed in like three months.
Speaker 1: It's been so cold, Like I was gonna say it's
Speaker 1: been cold though, yeah yeah, so like summertime, sure, I'll
Speaker 1: spend money on golf, but I don't spend money on myself.
Speaker 1: So there's there are seasons of like, man, like it's
Speaker 1: so hard to save money when all of my money
Speaker 1: is just going.
Speaker 2: Out well, you know, I look at life and the
Speaker 2: way that you're talking about that in general too, I
Speaker 2: feel like we have been set up just to survive,
Speaker 2: Like we haven't been set up And I don't know.
Speaker 2: If it's like our country, I don't know, if it's society,
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. I just don't feel like
Speaker 2: in general we've been set up to like live and
Speaker 2: thrive and like enjoy life. We've really been set up
Speaker 2: to survive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what everybody's doing based on like our
Speaker 1: economic systems.
Speaker 2: What you're saying, yeah, and like the way that how
Speaker 2: expensive everything costs, the mental health in our in how
Speaker 2: everybody's feeling. Like you look at if you talk to
Speaker 2: a group of people right now, I bet you everybody
Speaker 2: would be like I'm surviving. Not one of them is
Speaker 2: gonna be like I Am living my best life. Like
Speaker 2: I just don't know how to be kid, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean? Like that doesn't happen very often unless
Speaker 2: like somebody's just really good at prioritizing that. But like
Speaker 2: life doesn't make it easy to prioritize that with the
Speaker 2: way that we have to work and the way that
Speaker 2: we have to pay for things.
Speaker 1: Then whatever, and it just feels like we're gonna be
Speaker 1: doing this for a long time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like it never ends, Like it never ends. It
Speaker 2: actually gets worse.
Speaker 1: Huh. And then I'm thinking like, oh, okay, good, like
Speaker 1: I got one almost in college, it's gonna be great.
Speaker 1: Oh we gotta pay for his college forgot about that.
Speaker 1: Oh and then and then and then we have three
Speaker 1: more on top of that. Oh great, and then our
Speaker 1: youngest is five years old. Oh my goodness, this is
Speaker 1: never going to end, like it really it's I have
Speaker 1: days where it's just like weighs on me hard, or
Speaker 1: like this is going to be it's going to keep
Speaker 1: going for a while. But one thing when I mentioned
Speaker 1: betterhelp is one thing that I did take that was
Speaker 1: really good from that was the therapist that I talked
Speaker 1: to was like, hey, what I think. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I was talking about like on vacation or oh,
Speaker 1: I know what I was talking about. I was talking about,
Speaker 1: like we need like a housekeeper. We need someone to
Speaker 1: come in and like just clean our house once a
Speaker 1: week because like we all we do that, and as
Speaker 1: much as I get the boys to do it, they
Speaker 1: suck at it, and I have to do it over them,
Speaker 1: or my wife has to like do the dishes over
Speaker 1: because their dishes are terrible. Yeah, you know, like you
Speaker 1: know it's like nice put the laundry away, and then
Speaker 1: they just met completely mess it up and you're just like,
Speaker 1: if you know what, forget it, I'll just do it.
Speaker 1: And so the therapist is like, yes, get yourself a housekeeper,
Speaker 1: or like somebody that comes in and cleans your house,
Speaker 1: or somebody comes in that mows your a yard guy whatever.
Speaker 1: Invest in yourself. And I'm like, what do you mean
Speaker 1: invest in yourself? And it was so true, Like you
Speaker 1: would spend money on a nicer refrigerator, one that didn't
Speaker 1: break every four years or every three years, right, that's
Speaker 1: an investment. You would invest in something that would help
Speaker 1: you in any other thing. You get yourself a nice
Speaker 1: like vacuum cleaner, because you want your your carpet to
Speaker 1: be cleaned, Like you invest in a vacuum cleaner. You
Speaker 1: don't want to buy a vacuum cleaner, but you invest
Speaker 1: in it. Invest in those things so that you can
Speaker 1: focus on whatever you want to do versus what you
Speaker 1: always need to do. So that was kind of cool,
Speaker 1: and like we do have someone that comes by and
Speaker 1: like cleans like once a week now not every two
Speaker 1: weeks probably, And I do have a yard person that
Speaker 1: comes by and does the yard because that was me
Speaker 1: all the time, because it's like, oh I forgot it.
Speaker 1: Look at the grass, it's like overgrown. Now I got
Speaker 1: to do that, and so that's cool, And I've never
Speaker 1: ever been on board to doing that. Like my whole
Speaker 1: life is just like I can do the dishes, like
Speaker 1: I can clean, I can mop the floor like, I
Speaker 1: can do that, no big deal. I can cut the grass.
Speaker 1: But if I can just get rid of that part,
Speaker 1: then I have like an hour to do something else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have some extra time to spend with your
Speaker 2: family and so yeah, so I have a little bit
Speaker 2: more living.
Speaker 1: But I am doing a lot better mental health wise.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I'm glad to hear it. I feel like
Speaker 2: that perspective changes the way you think about things, So
Speaker 2: I like it. Well, thanks for sharing being a little vulnerable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, thanks for that question.
Speaker 2: Yep, thanks Lauren. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break.
Speaker 2: Coming back. We got more family talk. Great, all right,
Speaker 2: Andrea wants to know if you think you will ever
Speaker 2: show pictures of your wife or your kids.
Speaker 1: That's funny, Andrea, I would I would have showed it
Speaker 1: a long time ago, like I'll always showed my wife
Speaker 1: a long time ago. But she will not have it.
Speaker 2: So you don't think you'll ever be able to post
Speaker 2: a picture of her.
Speaker 1: No, she won't do it, Like there aren't very many
Speaker 1: pictures of her, like in my phone, because she doesn't
Speaker 1: like to take pictures, like if there's whatever, like if
Speaker 1: we're all on the couch and like, oh, that's a
Speaker 1: cute picture, and I take a picture, She's like don't, don't,
Speaker 1: what are you doing and she'll cover her face and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not gonna do anything. But then I
Speaker 1: just want to keep it. And even her parents are
Speaker 1: just like stop doing that, like we're gonna want to
Speaker 1: have pictures of you when you're like older, like whatever,
Speaker 1: And so she doesn't kids.
Speaker 2: Are gonna want pictures.
Speaker 1: Do you tell her that, yes, your kids are gonna
Speaker 1: want pictures all that stuff. She doesn't like taking pictures,
Speaker 1: and she one hundred percent does that. Will never ever
Speaker 1: have a picture out or want me to post a
Speaker 1: picture about her.
Speaker 2: That's funny. I think people loop like kind of put
Speaker 2: your wife in with your kids. How like you don't
Speaker 2: post about your kids. That's why they think you don't
Speaker 2: post about your wife. It's funny that like she's the
Speaker 2: one who do not post.
Speaker 1: She's the one. And as far as my kids go, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think eventually, like I think once my son is
Speaker 1: like old enough to make that decision for himself, like
Speaker 1: the older one when.
Speaker 2: He is getting pretty close.
Speaker 1: He's sixteen. But I mean I would say, like he
Speaker 1: doesn't even have an Instagram account, so he doesn't want one.
Speaker 2: Did he have like I remember at one point he
Speaker 2: had like an art one yeah, be real? No no, no,
Speaker 2: he had like an art Instagram or is taking pictures.
Speaker 1: Of oh h places and places?
Speaker 2: Yeahs and places?
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he know. He never even asked me about it.
Speaker 1: I think that account is still on my phone. But
Speaker 1: for him, no, he just doesn't. He doesn't want it.
Speaker 1: Like he's cool. He's on his phone, like he watches
Speaker 1: YouTube videos and stuff, and she's not on TikTok, but
Speaker 1: he'll watch. I mean you really, if there's a real
Speaker 1: it makes it on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, the trans the way it goes down is
Speaker 2: like it starts on TikTok, it goes to real and
Speaker 2: YouTube probably about the same time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he just watches YouTube videos, and I like
Speaker 1: that because I don't mind him consuming what's out there,
Speaker 1: like all the funny stuff. I don't mind him watching that.
Speaker 1: It's just like I don't want him posting stuff himself
Speaker 1: and then regret it later and you know the whole
Speaker 1: you know, like I still still in my mind on
Speaker 1: like Thirteen Reasons Why, which I watched I don't know,
Speaker 1: eight years ago. The interacting with people, it's it's an
Speaker 1: extra element. That's the adds on to being a teenager
Speaker 1: that like you don't need.
Speaker 2: Are his friends on like he some okay some are?
Speaker 1: They do snapchat a lot, No, they don't want it.
Speaker 2: The only thing he does good for him.
Speaker 1: The only thing he does is be real, and he
Speaker 1: rarely does be real. But but yeah, so I like
Speaker 1: I like that. He doesn't like that. He doesn't want
Speaker 1: that really. So, but if you know, he goes to
Speaker 1: college or whatever, and he's just like gets an Instagram
Speaker 1: account all of a sudden, and he's like, hey, Dak.
Speaker 2: Even if he just goes to college and doesn't have
Speaker 2: an Instagram account and you're like sending him off, would
Speaker 2: you post.
Speaker 1: A picture maybe. I don't know, it's just if he
Speaker 1: wants to. If he wants it. He's kind of like
Speaker 1: my wife too though, like he's just like no, no, Dad,
Speaker 1: don't take a picture of me or whatever. Even if
Speaker 1: like he knows I'm not gonna post it.
Speaker 2: He's gonna go to college and like his whole world's
Speaker 2: gonna open and everybody's gonna be on Instagram. He's gonna be like, dang, well,
Speaker 2: Dad could just post me. I could get a couple
Speaker 2: of followers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, I know. I know.
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, would you guys foster again after maybe a
Speaker 2: few of them leave the house.
Speaker 1: This is from Shelby and South Dcota Shelby. If you're
Speaker 1: asking me, the answer is and no, i'd be asking
Speaker 1: my wife probably, so I don't know, like, yeah, we're
Speaker 1: so far from empty nesters, Like so far.
Speaker 2: Yeah you just said the youngest is.
Speaker 1: Five, Fine, he just turned five, So like no, like we.
Speaker 2: But even just a few like what if the oldest
Speaker 2: one leaves?
Speaker 1: See this is something that like we always do, Like
Speaker 1: I tell my wife, like why do we make our
Speaker 1: lives so hard? Like ever every time, like we're like, ooh,
Speaker 1: you know what we got through this this part of
Speaker 1: our life that was so difficult, and now it's like
Speaker 1: it feels good. It feels too good. We should do
Speaker 1: something to like make it harder again, and so and
Speaker 1: so that's kind of always my perspective on it, and
Speaker 1: she's like, no, we're not making it harder. We're able
Speaker 1: to do something that we weren't able to do. And
Speaker 1: so that's kind of where like the first time we fostered,
Speaker 1: that's kind of the reason why, because like we're finally
Speaker 1: able to do that, Like we're over our financial stuff
Speaker 1: and we do have a little extra money and we
Speaker 1: can foster kids if we need to and make a difference.
Speaker 1: So let's try it. And now we adopted them. And
Speaker 1: I don't know, I wouldn't say like no one, but
Speaker 1: right now, no, one hundred percent.
Speaker 2: Hey, fair enough, listen, I'm I'm just a messenger deliverying
Speaker 2: the question.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I like fostering, and the fostering is
Speaker 1: so cool, and so I'm not gonna say rewarding because
Speaker 1: it's not anything like that. It's just knowing that what
Speaker 1: you're doing for these children is going to help them
Speaker 1: so much that it feels good that you're actually doing it.
Speaker 2: You know what's funny idy as I hear you talk
Speaker 2: about that, like it's so awesome what you guys do,
Speaker 2: and if you do it again, amazing. If you don't,
Speaker 2: it's still amazing what you've done. But like the way
Speaker 2: that you talk about that is like the way that
Speaker 2: I talk about fostering and adopting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I don't think there's a big
Speaker 1: difference other than like they need your help too. Pets unfortunately,
Speaker 1: like we've turned them into pets, Like they can't survive
Speaker 1: in the wild. They can't like just go like you
Speaker 1: know what, I don't need you, Like I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: live them by myself in the woods, like they can't
Speaker 1: they need us.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And same thing with kids, Like they're born.
Speaker 2: And they didn't ask to be born to.
Speaker 1: Be born in that scenario or with that family. They
Speaker 1: just were born and their situation is they need help
Speaker 1: and somebody need to step up and help them. And
Speaker 1: I just love that and I love that, And you know,
Speaker 1: I think the more people that do it, you know,
Speaker 1: the more we can help.
Speaker 2: This is, the more helping in general. I think if
Speaker 2: there's any way you can help, like find your passion, Yeah,
Speaker 2: and help. We need more help, need more compassion, more
Speaker 2: empathy in the world.
Speaker 1: I think it's important and I'm telling you, like children
Speaker 1: change your life. It's pretty amazing, Like are are the youngest,
Speaker 1: the five five year old. He is a special person,
Speaker 1: like a special special person that needed to be in
Speaker 1: this world. Like there isn't one single person that I've
Speaker 1: met that doesn't like him, not one. Every teacher he's
Speaker 1: had is like, oh my gosh, like we just love him.
Speaker 1: Every friend that he has, every classmate that he has,
Speaker 1: They're like, we love him so much. Oh, he's my
Speaker 1: best friend. We love him. He smiles all the time,
Speaker 1: he laughs all the time. He's never in a bad mood.
Speaker 1: He's never mean. He's rough. He'll punch you, but the
Speaker 1: change there you'll punch you, like especially you're playing sports.
Speaker 1: But he's never mean, like he'll like punch you and
Speaker 1: be like, oh, sorry, he didn't mean to do that,
Speaker 1: like immediately take back, immediately like, oh we didn't mean
Speaker 1: to do that. I'm sorry. I'm working on it.
Speaker 2: You know, well, he he will probably be what is
Speaker 2: known as my therapist has said, I am and maybe
Speaker 2: it's a similar thing. It's called a sparkler. You are
Speaker 2: also kind of a sparkler, Eddie, Like I would put
Speaker 2: you in that same category. So maybe he's picking that
Speaker 2: up from you. Maybe, like maybe sparkler energy is hard
Speaker 2: to come by, but it's really special when you interact
Speaker 2: with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's just so cool to see, like,
Speaker 1: and I why once in a while I go back to, like, gosh,
Speaker 1: like I don't think his life would have been close
Speaker 1: to this, not even close to like, you know, say
Speaker 1: he's born a sparkler. He's supposed to be a sparkler.
Speaker 1: You were supposed to be a sparkler. Okay, maybe I
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a sparkler. I mean I smiled
Speaker 1: all the time growing up.
Speaker 2: I thought you are you were.
Speaker 1: And so if he's meant to be a sparkler, but
Speaker 1: he's in a scenario where like it's nothing but just
Speaker 1: bad stuff, he's not gonna be a sparkler, and that's
Speaker 1: and that's terrible. We need more sparklers in this in
Speaker 1: this world, and like I think about it all the time,
Speaker 1: like I'm so glad we have him so that he
Speaker 1: can be out in the world and like just change
Speaker 1: as soon as he shows up in someone's house. It
Speaker 1: changes the vibe of that house because he walks in,
Speaker 1: he owns it. He's like, hey, like he saw we
Speaker 1: saw his teacher at the grocery store, and he goes,
Speaker 1: how have you been, and like you just saw him.
Speaker 1: You just saw her, like you know, two days ago,
Speaker 1: and he's like, I know, but I don't see her
Speaker 1: all the time. Like that's great, he is.
Speaker 2: He's picking up on your energy. He may have already
Speaker 2: had at that, but like he's definitely picking up your
Speaker 2: energy because that's stuff you do.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you know so funny. So I love it.
Speaker 1: I love I'm so glad we did it.
Speaker 2: Oh I love that for you guys. Okay, we're gonna
Speaker 2: take one more quick break and we got two three
Speaker 2: more questions.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, cool, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Eddie, how does it work in your house? Caitlin
Speaker 2: from I think Louisiana, but it also says La, so
Speaker 2: I never know that's like La, but I'm a but
Speaker 2: I said name in state, so I think Louisiana. Okay
Speaker 2: once but maybe La maybe other day. Wants to know
Speaker 2: how you and your wife share the load of kids, jobs, activities,
Speaker 2: Like how does it work in your house?
Speaker 1: Okay? Well, she does most of it. I'll be honest,
Speaker 1: like she does most of it. You just came out
Speaker 1: he does. I mean it's the truth. I mean I
Speaker 1: go to work, and like I sometimes have to travel
Speaker 1: for work, so she carries a heavy load. But I
Speaker 1: mean I would say I am home a lot for
Speaker 1: like a dad that has a full time job. I
Speaker 1: remember my dad. He was never home, Like I never
Speaker 1: saw my dad. And even when I had other jobs,
Speaker 1: I was never home when our first son was born.
Speaker 1: You know, I worked for the news and then I
Speaker 1: worked for another TV station and I worked regular hours,
Speaker 1: so like nine to five, sometimes six, I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: home till like seven, and I wouldn't see him when
Speaker 1: I woke up, and I wouldn't see him till seven,
Speaker 1: and it's only like three hours before like or two
Speaker 1: hours before we have to put into bed, and so like,
Speaker 1: this job has allowed me to be home a lot more,
Speaker 1: even though I do travel. But when I'm home, like
Speaker 1: i'm home by I get to pick them up from school,
Speaker 1: which is cool. Yeah, I get to take them to
Speaker 1: their practices, which is awesome, and be there for their
Speaker 1: practices and be there at their games for most of them.
Speaker 1: And so while I'm present. I do a lot, like
Speaker 1: I've taken on the kitchen, maybe because mostly because I
Speaker 1: like to cook.
Speaker 2: You do like to cook. I do great quality.
Speaker 1: I love to cook. So when my wife is like, oh,
Speaker 1: I've had a day, I'm like, i'll cook, I'll do
Speaker 1: I do it. I got it under control, and so
Speaker 1: I cook a lot. I do. I clean the kitchen
Speaker 1: almost every night. I would say, maybe two nights out
Speaker 1: of the week. She ends up doing it because some
Speaker 1: nights I'm just I'm over it. Like it's been a
Speaker 1: long day.
Speaker 2: I won't try enough right, Like sometimes she's gonna have
Speaker 2: a long day. Sometimes you have a long day.
Speaker 1: Totally. I don't do the laundry. She did threaten me. Refuse,
Speaker 1: she threatened the other day She's like, I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: you do the laundry because I was an idiot, Morgan,
Speaker 1: I was an idiot.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: She when she hangs my clothes, she sometimes I have
Speaker 1: a system in my closet.
Speaker 2: I have all my like, I'm before you even continue,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say you don't get to have a
Speaker 2: system or repicky if you're not no.
Speaker 1: No, listen, listen, listen, Like I organize the system so
Speaker 1: like so if she put hangs the hangs the shirts
Speaker 1: or whatever, like, for the most part she sees where
Speaker 1: they go. But some days she's just like, I got
Speaker 1: to just throw them in there, and so she puts
Speaker 1: the pants with the shirts and the jackets with the
Speaker 1: short sleeves and all that. And I said, hey, you
Speaker 1: did it.
Speaker 2: Question I'm already cringing.
Speaker 1: I was like, did are you going to keep putting
Speaker 1: them all down there? Or like should I just She's like,
Speaker 1: she's like, what do you mean. I said, well, well,
Speaker 1: like they all they all kind of go somewhere, and
Speaker 1: sometimes like if they're not hung up right, like they're
Speaker 1: all wrinkled and whatever, it's kind of worse off, you know.
Speaker 1: And she's just like, how's it not hung up hung
Speaker 1: up right? And I was like, well, that one's inside out.
Speaker 1: And then she makes the caller kind of do that.
Speaker 1: And she's like, you know what, like if you have
Speaker 1: a problem with it, you do your own laundry. And
Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, no, no, no no, no, don't
Speaker 1: have problem. I don't have a problem with it. I
Speaker 1: don't have a problem with it. I was just telling you,
Speaker 1: if you're able to do it, it would really help me out.
Speaker 1: So then she was like, no, you're doing your own laundry.
Speaker 1: You were done. And she did that for two weeks
Speaker 1: and did my own laundry for two weeks, and then
Speaker 1: she said, don't worry, I'll do it. Like it's okay,
Speaker 1: I'll do it. And she said, but I'm not going
Speaker 1: to do your system. I will put it all down
Speaker 1: here and you can sort out your system.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say that could be the compromise, like
Speaker 2: washing it and you seem to not want to do
Speaker 2: and then you can put it in your system. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I was late for something and I
Speaker 1: wanted to wear a shirt but it was inside out,
Speaker 1: and because it was inside out, the collar kind of
Speaker 1: was doing that and I was like, you're kind of
Speaker 1: messing up my shirt. It didn't go well.
Speaker 2: You know what, though you rightfully got the response either.
Speaker 1: I know, I know I did the laundry for two weeks,
Speaker 1: but but but yeah, so so I don't do the
Speaker 1: laundry really, but everything else, Oh and cleaning, like I
Speaker 1: don't like sweep the floors, but we do have like
Speaker 1: kind of a thing that like you push a button
Speaker 1: and it sucks dust.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what about what about a robot vacuum.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, somebody told me not to do that because
Speaker 1: it picks up toys and jams up.
Speaker 2: Oh there's all there's.
Speaker 1: A always like legos in my house.
Speaker 2: Got it?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: Like that robot vcuum is amazing.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So do you leave it on all day?
Speaker 2: It is kind of like you just you can you
Speaker 2: like I could literally be sitting here right now and
Speaker 2: hit the button and say go clean.
Speaker 1: That's cool.
Speaker 2: So it's but no, it's how doesn't run. It goes back.
Speaker 1: Cover the whole like every area of the floor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you can like block out certain areas if
Speaker 2: you need to, Like you could block out a toy
Speaker 2: area if there's like a toy No.
Speaker 1: No, the toy areas all over the house. It's all
Speaker 1: over the house.
Speaker 2: Fair enough. You maybe got a few more years the
Speaker 2: robot vacuum. Yeah, but yeah, it is really awesome. That
Speaker 2: is cool, and that makes sense. I would not know,
Speaker 2: but that makes sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody told me don't do that. It's like all right, smart,
Speaker 1: that's smart.
Speaker 2: Fair enough, Okay. Last one, Morgan and North Carolina said
Speaker 2: that you and your wife for thinking of doing a
Speaker 2: vow renewal. I don't even remember.
Speaker 1: Yeah, our twenty year like we talked about possibly going
Speaker 1: to because I think, uh, we're eighteen years now, yeah,
Speaker 1: or eighteen years so to be in two in a
Speaker 1: couple of years.
Speaker 2: Okay, So you guys are talking about it early to.
Speaker 1: Uh huh yeah, because I mean it's been a long
Speaker 1: time and so you know, you change, And I think
Speaker 1: vowel renewals kind of cool because you really know what
Speaker 1: you're talking about now, when before you get married, you're like,
Speaker 1: I promise to pick up my clothes like and not
Speaker 1: leave them around, Promise not to like, uh, just stupid
Speaker 1: things like if you do your own, they're stupid, they're dumb.
Speaker 1: You don't even know what you're talking about. Now we've
Speaker 1: been married for like eighteen years. We know what we're
Speaker 1: talking about. We know what we promised to do for
Speaker 1: each other, and so I thought it'd be kind of
Speaker 1: cool because we got married in Hawaii, to go back
Speaker 1: to Hawaii, take our kids to Hawaii and like renew
Speaker 1: our vowels there, oh, and just.
Speaker 2: Have it to be like a family thing. Yeah, that'd
Speaker 2: be cool.
Speaker 1: Well, even when we got married, it was just my
Speaker 1: my family and her family.
Speaker 2: Okay, I remember you saying.
Speaker 1: That it's tiny. Yeah, and so I don't know, maybe
Speaker 1: we can get everyone back together be kind of fun.
Speaker 2: That cool.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We haven't really talked too much about it,
Speaker 1: other than we probably should think about going to Hawaii.
Speaker 1: Back to Hawaii. I love that because we haven't been
Speaker 1: in so long.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you love Hawaiian I love Hawaii, like love it,
Speaker 2: Eddie to talk about Hawaii for like every day.
