Speaker 1: Yah, Welcome to this episode of Pod meets World, part
Speaker 1: of our Sleepover edition.
Speaker 2: We're now freezing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I from being really really hot inside to being
Speaker 1: really cold.
Speaker 2: Hold for the plane.
Speaker 3: No, I don't say we hold for the plane. This
Speaker 3: is nature, man, happens in life. Nature is the place, right,
Speaker 3: Nature is the plane. This is part of life.
Speaker 4: This kind of nature, my natures in a tent.
Speaker 5: This is the most camping you'll ever get out of me.
Speaker 1: In case you've forgotten, we are at the Boy meets worldhouse,
Speaker 1: spending the night.
Speaker 2: We're in our pajamas, and.
Speaker 4: We looked at it this, you know, for the first
Speaker 4: time in the right place.
Speaker 5: Yes, we're the place.
Speaker 4: But what I realized is when we were pitching what
Speaker 4: we imagined your house looked.
Speaker 2: Like I was pitching this house, really but I.
Speaker 4: Said, brick and pillars. Do you remember I realized I
Speaker 4: subconsciously was.
Speaker 5: I was like, we grew up in Eric.
Speaker 4: This was like, this is what I imagined Will grew up
Speaker 4: in Connecticut. Because this is during West Coast people.
Speaker 6: Think East Coast writer has never been able to reality
Speaker 6: from the exactly Eric Will, Eric Eric Will.
Speaker 1: Whatever, we thought it would be a good idea to
Speaker 1: get into our history with sleepovers.
Speaker 2: Did you guys do.
Speaker 5: A lot of sleep You're going to address the tent?
Speaker 1: I wasn't because this is writer's.
Speaker 5: Natural habitat out in front of the house. This is
Speaker 5: actually your tent, isn't it? Okay?
Speaker 6: I say to ask if he could help us with
Speaker 6: producing this bit. He did say, do you want a four,
Speaker 6: six or eight?
Speaker 3: Some?
Speaker 6: Why do you have all of them? And he said
Speaker 6: I have a ten? Also, nice writer. Essentially a t.
Speaker 2: Is the wilderness.
Speaker 5: Walking? Did anyone bring bear spray? I'm just kiddous.
Speaker 2: No, I am still so thirsty, but.
Speaker 5: This is not becoming a problem.
Speaker 2: The hai made me thirsty.
Speaker 5: I kind of yeah.
Speaker 6: I pitched this bit because I know you guys were
Speaker 6: going to be sleeping here, and I have a very
Speaker 6: mixed history with childhood sleepovers. And I guess my question
Speaker 6: to you guys was am I alone in it?
Speaker 5: I just have a couple of pretty bad sleepover stories.
Speaker 4: I mean, I definitely I have one with the one
Speaker 4: I could bad was like when I asked to go
Speaker 4: home because I was uncomfortable in my friend's house, who
Speaker 4: is still one of my best friends to this day.
Speaker 4: And it was one of the first times i'd ever
Speaker 4: hung out with them. And you know, of course I
Speaker 4: was reading in the situation right. His stepdad was an abusive,
Speaker 4: drunk person, and like he was.
Speaker 6: His house was again nervous not mixing TV in reality, No,
Speaker 6: this was really happened.
Speaker 1: Yes, a friend who got beaten up by a friend
Speaker 1: by her dad.
Speaker 4: This is still one of my best friends to this day.
Speaker 4: And and and you know, basically, like I knew even then,
Speaker 4: I called my mom, and my mom and I used
Speaker 4: to have a code to like be able to say, like,
Speaker 4: I'm uncomfortable. I actually don't remember what it was.
Speaker 3: You had a code for if you slept at somebody's
Speaker 3: house who had a drunken, alcoholic time.
Speaker 7: It was.
Speaker 4: My parents were just always like, if you ever want
Speaker 4: to go home for any reason, you use.
Speaker 2: A specific ghost specific codes.
Speaker 5: This is a ghost. That's a ghost. There's a Pacific
Speaker 5: ghost here, dude.
Speaker 4: Ghost.
Speaker 6: It's funny to even hear writers say the time I
Speaker 6: went home because I could go the other way.
Speaker 5: The time I stayed.
Speaker 2: You only stayed at one sleepover.
Speaker 5: I mean, very minimal amount.
Speaker 2: Why did your parents keep letting you go?
Speaker 6: They wanted me to be able to like do it
Speaker 6: but you would freak out.
Speaker 5: She was the same way. She would always call and
Speaker 5: have to leave.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I don't know if I was like afraid
Speaker 6: or if I mean I probably was afraid, but I
Speaker 6: also like, there are certain things that happened while I
Speaker 6: was at sleepovers that like I wonder if I set them.
Speaker 5: Up to leave?
Speaker 6: Oh interesting, Like one time at my friend Russell's house,
Speaker 6: he had a bunk bed and then I went home
Speaker 6: because I genuinely hit my head against the fan in
Speaker 6: his room, like the ceiling fan, and so I had
Speaker 6: like a bump on my head and was like time
Speaker 6: to go home.
Speaker 5: But I was like thrilled. Do you know what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 6: Like like I found it out, or like I skim
Speaker 6: knees and then I'm oh, I gotta come come, you know,
Speaker 6: And I think, maybe would you would you hurt yourself
Speaker 6: a little self harm? Maybe I don't think on purpose,
Speaker 6: but or maybe on purpose. It's just like subconscious, but
Speaker 6: like I never wanted to say at friend's houses, and
Speaker 6: yet I always tried.
Speaker 3: I wanted to try because you'd feel bad and I
Speaker 3: would just get embarrassed. So like, well, okay, so I'm
Speaker 3: the only other person I've ever heard of this happening
Speaker 3: to is Bill, one of the Bill Daniel's sons. So
Speaker 3: from the time apparently that I was old enough to
Speaker 3: raise my head in the crib, I would bump my
Speaker 3: head to go to sleep.
Speaker 5: So I would literally put.
Speaker 3: My arms in front of me like this, and I
Speaker 3: would repeatedly slam my head hundreds.
Speaker 5: And not thousands of times.
Speaker 3: And apparently it's a nervous thing that a very small percentage,
Speaker 3: and you don't do this anymore, Nois, but I did
Speaker 3: until I was like ten or eleven to fall asleep.
Speaker 3: So I and what would happen was in the middle
Speaker 3: of the night, sound asleep, I would start doing it.
Speaker 3: So I would wake up with my friends like holding
Speaker 3: my head down, like what the.
Speaker 5: Hell is wrong with him? I'm slamming. So that was
Speaker 5: several times I woke up very embarrassed.
Speaker 3: But the other time was when I gave the other
Speaker 3: kids at the party lice.
Speaker 5: I had it once.
Speaker 3: I did not know, but I was really itching my
Speaker 3: head and then we all had it. Point yeah, at
Speaker 3: one point it was it had some some some problems.
Speaker 6: Wait, so Daniel, you went to sleepovers and like never
Speaker 6: had a problem. You were just like I love it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I usually really liked it.
Speaker 5: I mean we did high school too. You were one
Speaker 5: of those people I did.
Speaker 4: I have.
Speaker 1: But but at the sleepover I did, I was a
Speaker 1: scaredy cat, like I don't like scary stuff, and a
Speaker 1: lot of sleepovers were focused around scary things. I think
Speaker 1: I told the story when we had Daniel Harris over.
Speaker 1: I they I came to a sleepover a little late,
Speaker 1: don't know why, but they were already in involved in
Speaker 1: Halloween five and I had never seen such a thing.
Speaker 5: And I was like a Dutch stuck in like a doctor.
Speaker 2: There's he's stopping through it. And I was traumatized.
Speaker 3: I haven't been able to be in an air duct
Speaker 3: since I have not been really stopped traveling.
Speaker 2: By I never did it again. I'm exactly right.
Speaker 5: Taking the stairs from now on.
Speaker 2: And then we did play. I mean, you know the
Speaker 2: story A fart knocker.
Speaker 5: I mean, no one else knows it. What is fart? What?
Speaker 5: What is this? She started with?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 5: The story knock to me like, do you think I
Speaker 5: should summon the spirit?
Speaker 2: Shuld I tell? Should I tell the story?
Speaker 4: Or going to die? No?
Speaker 5: I think you should?
Speaker 1: Okay, so is a feather a board played the Ouiji board.
Speaker 1: But no, you is there a spirit here?
Speaker 7: Yes?
Speaker 2: Are you a good spirit?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 2: And what is your name?
Speaker 5: Far knocker? Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: She was like, four teenage girls, two of us are
Speaker 1: coming up with a start knocker.
Speaker 5: It was real. So from probably I love the West,
Speaker 5: madam and mister what his David you won't laugh?
Speaker 2: Was in the hospital, I was like, is this heart knocker?
Speaker 6: When our baby was born premature? She did look at
Speaker 6: me serious and do you think this is?
Speaker 5: But I do know. I want to know what.
Speaker 4: Because boyd is the way into the meaning of life.
Speaker 5: Truth, it's the realm of the people. Don't know that
Speaker 5: most of.
Speaker 4: The government policies are based on this military plan is.
Speaker 6: I will say that what Danielle did tell me this.
Speaker 6: Originally she stands by the idea that no child of
Speaker 6: that age, a girl would have done. But what if
Speaker 6: she says, what if you brought up to her? Because
Speaker 6: I know you've never brought up to her, and we
Speaker 6: thought about it, but what if you brought up to
Speaker 6: and she was like, I know, like you're all kids
Speaker 6: from it, Like you're like, this is the time to
Speaker 6: come together to bring fart knocker back, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Should bring it up.
Speaker 5: I'll bring it up.
Speaker 2: But it's taunted me for my whole life. Fart knocker.
Speaker 5: Really really, I know, it's just like you as a joke.
Speaker 5: You took it seriously. She thinks, No, girl, that I
Speaker 5: believe this.
Speaker 2: It was not one of us. It wasn't.
Speaker 5: It was so long. That's a long decade.
Speaker 2: You could start.
Speaker 5: There, it's not there.
Speaker 2: His name could be fart but now we kept going okay,
Speaker 2: and it was spelled right, kay.
Speaker 4: So much more of it, just, you know, come up
Speaker 4: with a name like an actual dude.
Speaker 5: She is lit with a choke name. Is it a
Speaker 5: great yes? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes answer answer.
Speaker 6: Once you get past the t, right, we already have
Speaker 6: far great joke. Once you get past the T. Going
Speaker 6: through knocker is a long bit.
Speaker 2: What makes that genius?
Speaker 4: Somebody?
Speaker 2: So you think one of us there?
Speaker 4: Maybe?
Speaker 3: Are you honestly wondering if somebody fourteen came.
Speaker 2: Up with the name of fourteen we were younger, we
Speaker 2: were twelve.
Speaker 5: Well there you go.
Speaker 4: No twelve year old is gonna come up with your
Speaker 4: art knocker watching Nickelodeon, think.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I do wonder like I do think that there
Speaker 6: is something to be said that if you were to
Speaker 6: ask these other girls and they said, yeah, I still
Speaker 6: think about it, that would be pretty scary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if there's four girls just thinking about fart knockers
Speaker 3: all the time, anything you can't get fart.
Speaker 5: Knocker on my mind. I'm thinking of the movie poster right, anything.
Speaker 7: Twice silent, but Tedley exact part knockerxactly, exactly, fall in
Speaker 7: this fall exactly, and then it's part knocker too.
Speaker 3: Dut Chevin Shark, Yes, that's.
Speaker 5: His right hand man. Is the short three is definitely
Speaker 5: smelling the.
Speaker 3: Great?
Speaker 5: Oh, how do we make the franchise?
Speaker 6: I guess this is a good time to also admit
Speaker 6: that I'm Something I've never fully said out loud is
Speaker 6: that I did have a blanket, like a blanky and right,
Speaker 6: and one time fourth grade is a little wait for
Speaker 6: the late for the woobie though.
Speaker 5: Yeah, from the movie made me the woman give me
Speaker 5: the woobie anyway, got great movie.
Speaker 6: So I would take it with me, but my mom
Speaker 6: would hide it in the pillow so that the kids
Speaker 6: didn't see it, which is fine.
Speaker 2: And then one time you brought your own pillow with you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you brought your own used your pillow to
Speaker 5: hide your blanket.
Speaker 6: By the way, one of the sides of the pillow
Speaker 6: is just extremely swollen. It was very well And so
Speaker 6: one time my friend Ryan, his dad did find like
Speaker 6: was going through my stuff, like not in a mean way,
Speaker 6: but it was like moving my stuff into a bedroom
Speaker 6: and then the woobi fell out and he was like,
Speaker 6: is this your blanket?
Speaker 5: Oh god, he called you out.
Speaker 3: Did you have an abusive alcoholic code word sound your blanket?
Speaker 5: I think it's too it's too old for come on,
Speaker 5: I mean, that's not good. You went hold.
Speaker 1: Imagine having an eight year old at your house said,
Speaker 1: of course you didn't.
Speaker 2: I already got that.
Speaker 5: I believe. Of course, of course you went home. Now
Speaker 5: I will also I will also admit.
Speaker 6: I mean, this is something I've said on another podcast once,
Speaker 6: is that I didn't pooh in a public bathroom until
Speaker 6: I was thirty six.
Speaker 5: It's a lot of anxiety.
Speaker 6: But also going to the bathroom in a friend's house
Speaker 6: sounds at that time, sounded like a nightmare.
Speaker 5: Now it's a metal for fart knocker.
Speaker 3: Yeah, telling my god, you you you you had a
Speaker 3: lot to work on.
Speaker 5: I think as a kid, Yeah, a little more than most.
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, I had problems, but mine were usually
Speaker 3: giving other kids some horrible disease or something.
Speaker 1: Also say that the first that first sleepover, I think
Speaker 1: it was the one about Halloween five.
Speaker 5: Uh was this different than a far Knocker night.
Speaker 1: It was a different than a Farncker night. So we
Speaker 1: would spend the night over there. Sometimes the night before.
Speaker 1: A lot of my friends would work at the Rose Bowl,
Speaker 1: like the not the Rose Bowl, the Rose Parade. They
Speaker 1: would get up early in the morning and go help
Speaker 1: do the flowers on the break and I never did.
Speaker 1: But I would go to the sleepover the night before,
Speaker 1: and I had just moved from Orange County. And we
Speaker 1: did donuts after a sleepover, Donuts the morning after a
Speaker 1: sleepover or.
Speaker 5: A donuts donuts like you around.
Speaker 1: And your dad would like, go get donuts. You know,
Speaker 1: you'd wake up in the morning and then my dad
Speaker 1: would come in and.
Speaker 2: You'd never put donuts.
Speaker 5: It's just the way you said.
Speaker 3: We did donuts, donuts like you were freebasing something in
Speaker 3: the morning, wet.
Speaker 8: Them mainlining donuts. We did a donuts in the lawn
Speaker 8: and we did donuts.
Speaker 5: It's like we just explained. Let me tell you about
Speaker 5: my crazy sleepover.
Speaker 6: We talked to us in the middle, so you.
Speaker 2: Ate, we ate donuts.
Speaker 1: But then at this sleepover in Calabasas, they had bagels
Speaker 1: and I had never seen a bagel, and I had
Speaker 1: was like no idea what a bagel was, and I
Speaker 1: didn't understand why.
Speaker 2: It was the hardest doughnut I had every.
Speaker 5: The weird kids, you were the weird kids.
Speaker 2: This is a terrible donuts.
Speaker 7: Bagel, Darlic.
Speaker 2: How were you grew up in Los Angeles?
Speaker 6: Come on, Orange County, Orange County. I remember my aunt
Speaker 6: and uncle opened a bagel shop. This is really this
Speaker 6: is true in Orange County when I was well for
Speaker 6: a little But the weirdest part about it was I
Speaker 6: was in like middle school and like every block had
Speaker 6: in Calabasas and will the Niles had a bagel shop.
Speaker 5: It was on every block. And what I got there,
Speaker 5: they go, it's the first one in our county.
Speaker 6: And I was like and so like and so yeah,
Speaker 6: I guess that doesn't make sense that you would have
Speaker 6: thought it was hard, don't.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean yeah, but at the time, nobody did bagels.
Speaker 7: I'm not.
Speaker 5: After sleepovers we used to do do bagels, and don't.
Speaker 3: He did, and donuts after a sleepover too. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: you were the weird kids. That's what that's what I'm
Speaker 3: learning from.
Speaker 6: How we get along our kids. I do wonder, like
Speaker 6: I think about everyone so a while about when they
Speaker 6: sleep over, are they going to try to get out
Speaker 6: of it? Like will they take this in my gem?
Speaker 5: And he's not into it? Oh, really to do it?
Speaker 4: Really, he's done like maybe two sleepovers, but he doesn't.
Speaker 4: He'll he'll say he wants to do it, but he's
Speaker 4: had me pick him up once. How old he's how
Speaker 4: old he's nine?
Speaker 5: All right? Well when he starts smoking seven, he'll want
Speaker 5: to get out of the Well, he's done it.
Speaker 4: He's done it since. But this was when he was
Speaker 4: like seven. He was adamant I could do it, and
Speaker 4: he had already done it once said like five or
Speaker 4: six and was fine. But when he was seven, he
Speaker 4: was like, I could do it. And then he made
Speaker 4: me go pick him up, and I was like I did.
Speaker 3: I went to Sleepway camp a lot, and my first
Speaker 3: Sleepway camp I went through. I had the greatest time.
Speaker 3: I was there for like a week and a half.
Speaker 3: I had so much fun.
Speaker 2: How old were you third grade? Okay.
Speaker 5: So then fourth grade I did boy Scout camp. I
Speaker 5: got two days in.
Speaker 3: I was mosquitoes and tents and like, you got you
Speaker 3: don't set up your.
Speaker 5: Tent, You're netting right, You're gonna get killed in the night.
Speaker 5: And I was like, I have a stomach ache, and
Speaker 5: I was out.
Speaker 7: Wow.
Speaker 2: I did girl Scout camp.
Speaker 5: Did you?
Speaker 1: I wasn't a girl scout a girl scout, but I
Speaker 1: went with my friend who was a girl scout.
Speaker 5: You were allowed to bring civilians.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was a civilian in the in the girl
Speaker 2: Scout God and.
Speaker 5: You did you learn the handshake and everything?
Speaker 4: I don't can't remember the girls scout handshake.
Speaker 5: No, I'm making it up.
Speaker 3: It was never a girl scout, so I have no
Speaker 3: idea and make a hell of a cookie though.
Speaker 2: Yes they do.
Speaker 1: But it was really fun. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And
Speaker 1: there was like a girl there who was really cool.
Speaker 1: Her name was Rachel, and she was like kind of naughty,
Speaker 1: like you just knew she.
Speaker 4: Was kind of girl.
Speaker 5: The other girl with.
Speaker 1: Chel A lot of Rachel's and they're cool. One of
Speaker 1: them is a doctor. One of them invented fart knockers,
Speaker 1: and I don't know what happened to the other Rachel,
Speaker 1: But she was the one who was like had a
Speaker 1: experience with boys, and she she knew stories. I was
Speaker 1: maybe thirteen and she was maybe thirty or four. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and she like could tell stories and she was cool.
Speaker 1: But anyway, we one night had to not sleep in
Speaker 1: our tents. We took our sleeping bags out and we
Speaker 1: like hiked somewhere and then just laid down in our
Speaker 1: sleeping bags to go to sleep. And I had a
Speaker 1: sleeping bag that felt like was this material, And I
Speaker 1: had just been whispering and talking to Rachel and whatever,
Speaker 1: and it.
Speaker 2: Was like, Okay, we really have to go to sleep now.
Speaker 1: And I tucked myself inside my sleeping bag and then
Speaker 1: I heard on the top of my sleeping bag and
Speaker 1: I went Rachel stopped and scratching, yes, like scratching like
Speaker 1: this on on right here on my chest of my
Speaker 1: sleeping bag.
Speaker 2: And so I pulled my head out like this.
Speaker 1: And a bat went, oh my its wings right in
Speaker 1: front of me and then flew off, and I shrieked
Speaker 1: of woke up the entire camp.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was very cool.
Speaker 3: I woke up in the middle of the night in
Speaker 3: my little crappy apartment in Amsterdam, and there were two
Speaker 3: mice having a meeting on my chest.
Speaker 5: God, looking at each other right on conversation.
Speaker 4: I was like, can I help you?
Speaker 3: The sitting right on my chest like seriously going back
Speaker 3: and forth taking notes like this, and I.
Speaker 5: Was just like looking down like hello, and they kind
Speaker 5: of looked at me like oh, it's up, and they
Speaker 5: excuse me.
Speaker 4: Weird, weird.
Speaker 5: It was really weird. It's like, oh my god, Yeah,
Speaker 5: where were you Amsterdam?
Speaker 6: I mean, you guys sound like you had better times
Speaker 6: at sleepovers. I mean, Danielle does sound insane. Also, I
Speaker 6: like sleepover. I didn't even I couldn't even go to
Speaker 6: sleepway camp. Like when you said that, I still got anxious. Really,
Speaker 6: some sleep boy camp is awesome. I'm sure it's great.
Speaker 6: I just I wouldn't be able to do it.
Speaker 2: What were sleepovers at the Strong House? I mean what.
Speaker 5: Somebody's dropping somebody's dropping a stone.
Speaker 4: Jumping through fires, throwing things into the fire. We were
Speaker 4: camping out. We were camping out by by ten by
Speaker 4: ten on.
Speaker 5: We were always up in the woods, of course, so
Speaker 5: we were we.
Speaker 4: Would have we had we had a meadow and we
Speaker 4: would just we would just be camping out and then
Speaker 4: we would be making treks through the woods. For there
Speaker 4: was a rope swing that a neighbor had over a lake,
Speaker 4: and so we would trek in and be terrified because
Speaker 4: he had dogs, giant dogs.
Speaker 5: God. Yes, we would have to.
Speaker 4: Sneak over on tkey. Yeah, well we were, we were
Speaker 4: jumping the fire dickey. That was a ritual. And then
Speaker 4: and then yeah, we then we would of course we
Speaker 4: were like little pyros, of course, and it was and
Speaker 4: then yeah, we would sneak in, sneak off to the
Speaker 4: to the rope swing through the woods, and then like
Speaker 4: the one sleepover I remember is like my girlfriend Maureen,
Speaker 4: We've talked about her. She was staying at right Joel's house,
Speaker 4: which is like only a mile through the woods. And
Speaker 4: then like her friend was dating mine. Yeah, and so
Speaker 4: like you want to make out, so we had to
Speaker 4: like sneak through the woods and hopefully meet up halfway.
Speaker 4: And then parents showed up and like cars were chasing
Speaker 4: and we were like running away. Yeah, and like I
Speaker 4: did finally meet up with Marine, and I just remember
Speaker 4: she had eaten garlic salsa and so I finally got
Speaker 4: the kiss her and it was.
Speaker 5: The most disgusting thing I've ever tasted in my life.
Speaker 5: It was I kissed her and I was like, but I'm.
Speaker 1: Gonna it was disgusting, but worth it.
Speaker 6: She tasted like a bad doughnut. That is the opposite
Speaker 6: of anything I've ever I mean, the entire strong experience
Speaker 6: of childhood is the opposite of.
Speaker 5: What I had. You also didn't grow up in the woods, though, No,
Speaker 5: we did the same thing. In the woods.
Speaker 3: If you had access to the woods, the woods were
Speaker 3: your playground.
Speaker 5: Allowed them to come to the ranch and sleep.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, not everybody, but but yeah, no,
Speaker 4: for the most I mean, like Mariene's parents. You know,
Speaker 4: girls a lot of times their parents would, but it
Speaker 4: was mostly boys, you know, but and you know, yeah
Speaker 4: it was. But we just love camping out. We loved
Speaker 4: having you know, we felt like we were surviving. I
Speaker 4: remember like taking French bread and just burned it over
Speaker 4: the fire like we were cooking something like just the
Speaker 4: eating and feeling like I'm surviving.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: This is like when I was eleven, I had really
Speaker 4: just rand Lord of the Flies because the movie was
Speaker 4: coming out, and I was like.
Speaker 5: Obsessed with like we could survive on our own. Yeah,
Speaker 5: was it?
Speaker 6: Was it bad to go to sleep first? I asked
Speaker 6: this as like.
Speaker 5: Now just feel like, yeah, we always stayed up, like
Speaker 5: if you.
Speaker 6: Fell asleep, was it like they put your finger in
Speaker 6: water or whatever? Then yeah, I didn't the worst.
Speaker 4: If you mess with me when I'm asleep, I the worst.
Speaker 4: And it goes back to that because if I sleep
Speaker 4: with my.
Speaker 3: Brother, I remember having to wake you up a couple
Speaker 3: of times and we did a tour or something. Immediately
Speaker 3: started punching, angry and swinging, and I was like, ah, like.
Speaker 6: Yes, it was bad. It was so because you were
Speaker 6: always nervous to fall asleep first.
Speaker 2: So I don't because your brother would mess with you.
Speaker 4: They used to mess with me, and so.
Speaker 6: Yeah I would. That's another reason I'd go home from
Speaker 6: these big sleepover parties.
Speaker 2: We used to do the Like I don't know why.
Speaker 1: Why is when you have a slumber parties everything supposed
Speaker 1: to be scary because I remember also remember spending in
Speaker 1: a bathroom and like saying, oh.
Speaker 2: What very bloody mair? Why because it's.
Speaker 5: Awful and it's empowering.
Speaker 4: It's empowering for kids to talk about the things that
Speaker 4: the adults don't talk to them about.
