Speaker 1: Rom bargenpo podcast It's fun. But how pay podcast it's
Speaker 1: him and now Prombag podcast It's hot. Oh yeah. Oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, one other thing that was another one
Speaker 1: of our fabulous theme songs from the band Dawes. They
Speaker 1: are just a great group of guys that I met
Speaker 1: at the Olympic Auditorium during Mexican Wrestling night. H Those
Speaker 1: guys are a hoot and they know their stuff. They
Speaker 1: really know how to play instruments, which is important when
Speaker 1: you want to start a band. Welcome back to our show.
Speaker 1: Anyone listening knows that a while back, I used to
Speaker 1: be a doulah. Yes, for a few months or so,
Speaker 1: I worked in a small Polish village and I helped
Speaker 1: deliver the babes no education or training. It was just
Speaker 1: very intuitive and very knowledge jible. And if you're ever
Speaker 1: in Poland and you find yourself in a beautiful small
Speaker 1: town called Malburg, pop into their local elementary school. You'll
Speaker 1: find a whole classroom of children I delivered. They're doing great.
Speaker 1: One kid still has his unbilical cord. Actually, Alexander, he's
Speaker 1: like four, Um, Where's what's going on? Where's this story going? Oh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Today's episode is on childcare. To the parents out there,
Speaker 1: you made a human. Now what you rinse them off?
Speaker 1: You wrap them in a towel, then you you put
Speaker 1: them down somewhere. And what do you do between meals?
Speaker 1: Just sit there, read a book? How do you fill
Speaker 1: the time with these strange creatures? That's your Is this
Speaker 1: your childcare advice? Yes it is. But before we get
Speaker 1: to all of that, let's read some of our online comments.
Speaker 1: Right Welcome to our online comments segment today. I actually
Speaker 1: showed Ron our podcast page on Apple Music, and there's
Speaker 1: a whole section where people can write in and tell
Speaker 1: me how much they like me. Well, they can leave reviews,
Speaker 1: so that's it. Okay, they just leave reviews great, good,
Speaker 1: So a whole host of reviews, and we have the
Speaker 1: page pulled up right here. So what I wanted to
Speaker 1: say is that some of them might be not so nice.
Speaker 1: I mean, people actually tend to avoid reading their reviews
Speaker 1: online because with every nice one, there's always a few
Speaker 1: really mean ones, you know, So just something to keep
Speaker 1: in mind. Run, are you listening, I'm reading? Okay, Oh look,
Speaker 1: this guy gave our podcast a star. He gave us
Speaker 1: one star. He wrote garbage, terrible, trash podcast. See, this
Speaker 1: is what I was trying to say. I'm confused. What
Speaker 1: does he mean? Um? I think he's just saying that
Speaker 1: our podcast isn't really his cup of tea. He's being confusing.
Speaker 1: I mean that comment is random, random alert. It seems
Speaker 1: like he's out of his mind or on a bender
Speaker 1: or something. You know. Let's just look at another one. Okay, Oh,
Speaker 1: here we actually have another star another one star review. Okay.
Speaker 1: It starts by saying stupid poop. Okay, well that's funny.
Speaker 1: And he also said this is a poop podcast, worthless, shameful. Oh,
Speaker 1: who do you think he's talking about? Here? You for me?
Speaker 1: I feel like I don't know. Well, it's about our show.
Speaker 1: It's not about me. Well, it's not about me. I'm
Speaker 1: not stupid poop. Okay. I mean, can you for absolute
Speaker 1: certain say that he's not talking about you specifically. I
Speaker 1: think he just doesn't like our show. Okay, Carolina, Sure,
Speaker 1: it's about our show. Sure, Okay, one more. Let's look
Speaker 1: at this one. Oh, this one gave us like eight
Speaker 1: million stars stars, a constellation of stars. All right, this
Speaker 1: guy says, Ron is du man, dude, Wow, Ron's demand dude,
Speaker 1: Ron is demand. Are you just rereading it? Oh? My god?
Speaker 1: Are you getting emotional? What can I say? He's a
Speaker 1: good writer who said the art of criticism was dead.
Speaker 1: My god. The reviews are in and I'm the man.
Speaker 1: It's official, Carolina, We've got to do this more often.
Speaker 1: I mean, it says it says it right here. I'm
Speaker 1: the man, and I think this was really helpful feedback.
Speaker 1: Do yeah, let's take a commercial break, Carolina and I
Speaker 1: are going to toast some champagne over these reviews. Stay tuned,
Speaker 1: will be back with a childcare expert. Carolina, We did it.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the childcare episode of the Ron Burgundy Podcast.
Speaker 1: Many people have been writing me asking for my experience
Speaker 1: as a doulah and asking me how to take care
Speaker 1: of their little ones. But what we decided to do
Speaker 1: is to speak with another expert beside myself about some
Speaker 1: of the most important questions of your life as it
Speaker 1: pertains to children. So joining us here in studio is Liz,
Speaker 1: our childcare expert. Liz. Thank you for coming on the
Speaker 1: podcast today, Thanks for having me. Thank you. Yes, and so, Liz,
Speaker 1: what exactly is your title? How should I address you?
Speaker 1: You can address me as Liz, Okay, I can tell
Speaker 1: you some of the things that I do every case. Yes, um, So,
Speaker 1: I run a developmental center for young children ages two
Speaker 1: to five, and so we get to really be partners
Speaker 1: with families um in their children's development and it's pretty wonderful.
Speaker 1: And we get to know the kids really well and
Speaker 1: get to see them grow and develop over years. So
Speaker 1: you know your stuff, I hope so. Yes. Um, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm a doula, so we're kind of cut from the
Speaker 1: same close. What conversation topics do you broach with a baby?
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what they know or or
Speaker 1: what they like. Hell, I don't even know anything about them.
Speaker 1: Great thing about talking to babies is every moment that
Speaker 1: you're in relation with a baby, that you're connected with
Speaker 1: the baby. They're learning how to exist in the world.
Speaker 1: So you can talk to a baby that proven. We
Speaker 1: don't know that. We know that for sure. Babies they're
Speaker 1: very smart. Okay, I think we'll agree to disagree on
Speaker 1: that one. Have you seen a baby fly helicopter? That's
Speaker 1: a good point. Yes, thank you, I appreciate that feedback. Yeah. Um,
Speaker 1: what's the best trap to get a baby to stop crying?
Speaker 1: There are no tricks to get babies to stop crying.
Speaker 1: But babies are absolutely perfectly wired to be responsive to
Speaker 1: soothing by a parent or a caregiver. So a baby
Speaker 1: who stops crying as a baby who isn't hungry or
Speaker 1: isn't hurting, or isn't exhausted, and so so they're trying
Speaker 1: to express themselves and the only way they know how to,
Speaker 1: because they're not that smart, is to cry. Yes, so
Speaker 1: like a bottle full of rum and coke, that's not
Speaker 1: that's an old wives that's helped you. Yes, well, that's
Speaker 1: what my mother used to do to me, right, and
Speaker 1: you do sometimes still and tears. Have a sip of
Speaker 1: rum and coke out of a baby's bottle that will
Speaker 1: call me? That makes it feel more special? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you feel and you feel really big when you're holding
Speaker 1: it because it's small for a baby's hand. I didn't
Speaker 1: realize that that's what was happening. From a psychological psychological
Speaker 1: psych psychological psychological got it. And here's a question that
Speaker 1: comes up a lot. I'm sure, how do you teach
Speaker 1: your kids that farting is embarrassing. It's a really hard
Speaker 1: thing to do because so much of our work with
Speaker 1: little kids focuses on not pouring our shame and despair
Speaker 1: at being humidating them. So there is a little moment
Speaker 1: that you have to switch into, and it really is
Speaker 1: how big they are, because it's how gross their farts are. Huh,
Speaker 1: So little fartstars are shame free. And then it's right
Speaker 1: around that six year old birthday they get when it
Speaker 1: gets nasty because it's individual for every chime. I mean,
Speaker 1: even as an adult, you know, farting is funny, but
Speaker 1: it's not. We've had to talk to Ron about how
Speaker 1: farting is. Ron parting is embarrassing, but it's got it funny. Now,
Speaker 1: how do you teach children leash manners? You know? Because
Speaker 1: mine tugs at his when I take him to Disneyland.
Speaker 1: I put him on a leash and he just tugs away.
Speaker 1: How do you teach them don't pull on the leash
Speaker 1: so much? The kids on leash is something that I
Speaker 1: never understood until I actually started working with young children,
Speaker 1: and then I thought, wow, someone had a very smart idea,
Speaker 1: because how can you possibly keep them safe? So, like
Speaker 1: teaching anything to a young child, you repeat, you model,
Speaker 1: you provide consistent support. So any treats. Do you give
Speaker 1: them food treats? It depends. People may find this controversial,
Speaker 1: but I trained my child by giving walter kibble. Yeah
Speaker 1: was it kibble? Or no? It was real kibble. Yes,
Speaker 1: you took a hated it. He didn't respond well, So
Speaker 1: I turned kibble into milk duds, and then he learned
Speaker 1: not to pull on the leash. By the way, has
Speaker 1: anyone seen my kibble? Is my bag of kibble still
Speaker 1: there in the studio? Someone took it. I snack on
Speaker 1: kibble occasionally, But that's that's nothing to do with what
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Um, what do you say when your
Speaker 1: kids shows you a picture they drew and I don't
Speaker 1: know how to phrase this and it's a piece of
Speaker 1: s Do you tell them you like it? You know,
Speaker 1: I'll probably ask questions about it, just let's face it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes the letters are backwards and you know, you can't
Speaker 1: even figure out what they're drawing, and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1: I'll find something in it that really grabs my attention
Speaker 1: that I really like and start the conversation that way.
Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't lead with it's not meeting our quality standards.
Speaker 1: I told my son once when he was in third grade.
Speaker 1: And I meant this with nothing but affection. But watch it, dummy,
Speaker 1: Ron sent you a picture of Run that Run found unflattering.
Speaker 1: I'm not raising a mon net, that's for sure. Continue.
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting question. Well, my dad used to kick
Speaker 1: me out of the car and have me walk home
Speaker 1: when I was being a real sass mouth. Um, can
Speaker 1: I have him arrested for child abuse today? You probably
Speaker 1: can't have him arrested for child abuse today. But I'm
Speaker 1: really sorry that happened to you. That must have been
Speaker 1: really hard. Yeah, I mean, in hindsight, I kind of appreciate.
Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't equipped emotionally with the tools to
Speaker 1: kind of help me along. Um so, but it was Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was weird. Yeah, that sounds like that was really
Speaker 1: really hard for you. Because this is before navigation or anything.
Speaker 1: How did you find your way home? Well? I didn't
Speaker 1: for like a month. One year you lived with That
Speaker 1: was when you said that that was your wolves year,
Speaker 1: that was my wolves, my coyote year. Yep. Um. But
Speaker 1: speaking of my father, I mean, could I could I
Speaker 1: literally send police to his nursing home right now like
Speaker 1: a swat team? No? Okay, okay, I was joking. By
Speaker 1: the way, I would never do that unless you said yes.
Speaker 1: That's why I was really careful to say a firm no.
Speaker 1: I didn't want you to think that you could negotiate
Speaker 1: with that. I wanted to be really strong so you
Speaker 1: could feel really safe and secure with the answer that
Speaker 1: I was giving you, which is no. Ron, what parting
Speaker 1: is embarrassing, but it's funny, Liz, what's a trick or
Speaker 1: um on terms of how to talk to children that
Speaker 1: more you see most people do wrong? Is that too
Speaker 1: broad of a question. Oh no, that's pretty top of
Speaker 1: mind for me. Um. So adults parents are blowing it constantly.
Speaker 1: There are two things that when I see parents doing
Speaker 1: that I know is really well meaning, I get really
Speaker 1: excited about how to gently adjust them out of the habits.
Speaker 1: And the first is when parents say, use your words
Speaker 1: when their child is having a tantrum or struggling. The
Speaker 1: parent is trying to say, hey, we can talk this out.
Speaker 1: I'm here, I can listen to you. But what they're
Speaker 1: actually saying is, you know that hardest thing for you
Speaker 1: to do, the most difficult way that you have to communicate,
Speaker 1: use that right now while you're in a panic and
Speaker 1: you're crying and you're struggling. Um, So instead of saying
Speaker 1: use your words, all advise parents to offer their kids
Speaker 1: what they know their kids are trying to say in
Speaker 1: that moment. This is helping me so much because Ron
Speaker 1: was having a tantrum earlier today and I did, I was,
Speaker 1: I was, I said your words, and he was having
Speaker 1: it was there was he was trying to formulate the words,
Speaker 1: but they weren't coming. Now I see that was me.
Speaker 1: Let's walk through that. Let's do a do over on
Speaker 1: Ron's tantrum and walk through what maybe you could do
Speaker 1: the next time to help you guys stay connected in
Speaker 1: that really hard moment. Is that okay? Yeah? Sure. So
Speaker 1: Ron's crying, I'm just gonna let him go. So what
Speaker 1: I would say right there is, Ron, I see you
Speaker 1: looking for your bag of a kibble and you seem
Speaker 1: really frustrated that you can't find it. Would you like
Speaker 1: some help so we can look for your kidble together.
Speaker 1: It's I Ron, I still see that you're looking at
Speaker 1: your kibble. I'd like to help you, but it's up
Speaker 1: on a high shelf. You hm, partying is embarrassing by
Speaker 1: your face. Sorry, that is sort of usually where it ends.
Speaker 1: I usually lash out and I always apologize. That's my
Speaker 1: rule is seven days. I have to apologize within seven days.
Speaker 1: And I wait. I waited out, and sometimes it doesn't come,
Speaker 1: but sometimes it does, and sometimes it comes at the
Speaker 1: eleventh hour, end of day six exactly exactly do children, um,
Speaker 1: have you ever been bitten by a child? I was
Speaker 1: bitten by a child about thirty seconds before I left.
Speaker 1: Their teeth marks? Can you show I can't show you
Speaker 1: the teeth marks, but there are teeth marks. There usually are,
Speaker 1: so they this this child really clamped on wow, and
Speaker 1: it was great. It was one of my favorite moves,
Speaker 1: which is the sneak attack, which is it's a pretend
Speaker 1: leg hug and then I go, I fall for the hug.
Speaker 1: Every time that a misguided show of affection or was
Speaker 1: it out of anger? In this case, it was a
Speaker 1: child who just had too much kids inside the little
Speaker 1: body at that moment, So it wasn't. This is a
Speaker 1: child I have a great relationship with, We have a
Speaker 1: good rapport which each other. He wasn't trying to hurt
Speaker 1: people exactly, and he just got so fired up, too
Speaker 1: much person in a little body, and I've got to
Speaker 1: bite someone, so he chommed me right as I walked out.
Speaker 1: There is a famous football player, well soccer, Louise Suarez,
Speaker 1: and he's bitten players at opposing teams a couple of times.
Speaker 1: What does that say about how was he raised as
Speaker 1: a child? Do we do the tool of you just
Speaker 1: bit me? I think you would say the truth of
Speaker 1: what happened, you would label it, you would offer help,
Speaker 1: you would offer a boundary, and in that moment you
Speaker 1: would have to say, I can't let you bite me.
Speaker 1: I can't let you bite me, Louise Sorez exactly, And
Speaker 1: so it illustrates that it's and if you do it again,
Speaker 1: there'll be consequences exactly. Yeah. Gotta be funny if if
Speaker 1: you ever had a chance to meet Louise Sourez in person,
Speaker 1: just bite him right away on the cheek, preemptively two
Speaker 1: show that I was dominant for no, just like I
Speaker 1: know your tricks. I'm gonna bite you before you can
Speaker 1: bite me. I don't know if I would encourage that
Speaker 1: strategy with adults or with kids. I see that sometimes
Speaker 1: play out with very little hold on Liz. Sometimes you
Speaker 1: are backed into a order in a certain situation and
Speaker 1: you've exhausted all other ways of negotiation, and the only
Speaker 1: way to get out of it is to bite someone
Speaker 1: shark your way right out. We've all been there. They
Speaker 1: messed up my order at Starbucks like three times one day,
Speaker 1: and finally I just reached across the counter and I
Speaker 1: bit the young lady in the hand. I guess what
Speaker 1: happened next time I came in They had my order right.
Speaker 1: So I'm just saying it's hard to I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not in support of it, but there are just sometimes
Speaker 1: when it's the only option. Yeah, No, it's true. And
Speaker 1: on occasion when I'm on a transcontinental flight and I'm
Speaker 1: just bored, No it's a it's a red eye, we'll
Speaker 1: just randomly bite someone on the foot and then scurry
Speaker 1: back to my seat so they can't see that it
Speaker 1: was you. Well, just to get it, just because I'm
Speaker 1: bored up, all scurry like a little like a little
Speaker 1: field now us back to my seat, giggling like a
Speaker 1: school girl. Oh that's so. I wish you hadn't told
Speaker 1: me that. There is nothing more pleasurable than hearing someone
Speaker 1: up in first classgowing someone just bit me and knowing
Speaker 1: it was you. But yeah, I've got my technics shots.
Speaker 1: So what's good at least well is we cannot thank
Speaker 1: you enough. Thank you so much visiting us here. You
Speaker 1: are providing a service that is invaluable to the youth
Speaker 1: of America and to our relationship, and you helped us out.
Speaker 1: Yes exactly. Thanks again, thank you. And now for our
Speaker 1: nursery rhyme segment with composer and musician John Ryan. Welcome
Speaker 1: to the podcast, John, how are you today. I'm very well,
Speaker 1: nice to be here. What do you say we we
Speaker 1: kick it off with a little row row row your boat. Um.
Speaker 1: This is one I have fond memories of singing this
Speaker 1: nursery rhyme with my mother as a little boy. She
Speaker 1: used to sing it to me to entice me into
Speaker 1: the tub when it was bathtime. And oh man, did
Speaker 1: I hate bathtime as a kid. I just loved being
Speaker 1: covered in dirt and sand and motor oil. You know
Speaker 1: how kids today play with that slime stuff. When I
Speaker 1: was a child, we didn't have slime, So I used
Speaker 1: to play with a can of Pen's oil motor oil.
Speaker 1: I just poured all over myself, even into my mouth,
Speaker 1: and laugh like an idiot. If I could If I
Speaker 1: could have it my way, I would have stayed covered
Speaker 1: in motor oil all day long. But Mom wouldn't have it.
Speaker 1: You just don't want a child covered in motor oil
Speaker 1: rolling all over your white couch. Anyway, we would just
Speaker 1: sing this during bathtime when my mom would help scrub
Speaker 1: the motor oil off my tiny body. John, quick question
Speaker 1: before we start. Did you play with motor oil as
Speaker 1: a as a baby? Exclusively? That's what I thought, Carolina.
Speaker 1: How about yourself? Oh no, not come on, I just
Speaker 1: not once, not ever. That might cause brain damage. I
Speaker 1: think every child has had a fond memory of playing
Speaker 1: with motor oil. John, why don't we start here? Road, road, Road,
Speaker 1: your boot gently down the stream, merely, merely, merely, merely
Speaker 1: life is but it's lovely, just the way I remember it. Wow,
Speaker 1: that was beautiful, short and sweet. Next up, hot cross Buns.
Speaker 1: This nursery rhyme is one I think we're all familiar with,
Speaker 1: and it's called hot cross Buns. I've always been interested
Speaker 1: in the origin of nursery rhymes and these little songs.
Speaker 1: They seem to have existed forever in some shape or form,
Speaker 1: usually a simple melody with simple lyrics dating back to
Speaker 1: the nineteenth century. So I was curious about the history
Speaker 1: behind hot cross Buns, so I looked it up on
Speaker 1: the computer last night. This song was originally written ages
Speaker 1: ago by a couple of guys you actually might be
Speaker 1: familiar with. John Lennon and Paul McCartney recorded over two
Speaker 1: sessions on July THIRTI, nineteen sixty two, one in the
Speaker 1: morning and one in the afternoon. The final version of
Speaker 1: hot Cross Buns were all familiar with is actually a
Speaker 1: combination of the seventeenth and twenty first take of the song,
Speaker 1: produced by George Martin and appearing on the Beatles second
Speaker 1: UK album With the Beatles. It's just such specifically wrong
Speaker 1: information with a little bit of Beatlemania. Children and adults
Speaker 1: have been singing hot cross Buns ever since, So let's
Speaker 1: give it a dry hot cross buns, Hot cross buns.
Speaker 1: One A penny to a penny, Hot cross buns. I
Speaker 1: have no daughters, Give them to your sons, A penny
Speaker 1: to a penny, hot cross bun. I'd like that you
Speaker 1: did the version from the earlier take. Yeah, the Bootlegs, Yes,
Speaker 1: thank you. Of course John Brian would know it's from
Speaker 1: the Bootlegs. Carolina you had no idea. I guess I
Speaker 1: need to be I don't know educated more on the
Speaker 1: history of the Beatles. You just have to collect all
Speaker 1: the imports. That's That's what it comes down to, collecting
Speaker 1: the imports. Okay, this next one, this is personally one
Speaker 1: of my favorite nursery rhymes. I was. I was an
Speaker 1: extremely colic a three year old, so my mother had
Speaker 1: to sing this to me every night to fall asleep,
Speaker 1: and boy did it work. Um John, I think you're
Speaker 1: familiar with this tune as well. It's it's an it's
Speaker 1: an old, old nursery rhyme. I believe it's an old
Speaker 1: Dutch classic. It is, and it's called play in the Well.
Speaker 1: No one knows what time it is. Everyone knows what
Speaker 1: time it is. Time for a nap, no time for
Speaker 1: a treat, no time to read a book. No, what's
Speaker 1: that you say, Let's go play in the well. It's
Speaker 1: a cold art of mourn, So let's play in the well.
Speaker 1: We play in the well until the cold wind blows.
Speaker 1: We play in the well, and the old lady knows. Joseph, Maria, Gertrude,
Speaker 1: and Paul they never came back. They never came back.
Speaker 1: At all, what's that you say, Let's go play in
Speaker 1: the well. It's a cold autumn morn, so let's play
Speaker 1: in the well. The old lady screams in the middle
Speaker 1: of the night, she lost her hand from the wolves.
Speaker 1: What a fight? Joseph, Maria, Gertrude and Paul. They never
Speaker 1: came back. They never came back. They never came back.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, it brings back such joy, really does. A
Speaker 1: personal favorite of mine. It's so dark. It's dark, as
Speaker 1: in like a cozy little bedroom, dark like Grandma's quilt. Yes,
Speaker 1: it is dark. There's some blade runner um, I don't
Speaker 1: think so. And then it's about four missing children. Actually
Speaker 1: that one is actually based on a true story. Yes,
Speaker 1: so sure, all right. This next one is probably the
Speaker 1: most famous nursery rhyme I can think of. It's so famous.
Speaker 1: I think if you went up to someone on the
Speaker 1: street right now and pulled out a switchblade and held
Speaker 1: it to their neck and screamed, name a nursery rhyde,
Speaker 1: this is the one they would think of. Even in
Speaker 1: the state of panic and tear of being randomly accosted
Speaker 1: by someone with the switch blade, The first thing that
Speaker 1: would probably pop into their head would be Twinkle Twinkle,
Speaker 1: Little Star. A fun fact about this song. It's it's
Speaker 1: lyrics come from an English poem written by Jane Taylor. Wait,
Speaker 1: that wasn't really a fun fact. Caroline asked you to
Speaker 1: gather some fun facts about some of these nursery rhymes.
Speaker 1: What's what's fun about that? It's hard to find a
Speaker 1: fun fact. But the lyrics come from an old poem.
Speaker 1: Some lady named Jane wrote, that's a fact. Who cares?
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's not a fun fact. Try to
Speaker 1: find something. We need to have a sidebar conversation about
Speaker 1: what constitutes fun facts, because you could have just said
Speaker 1: I couldn't find any fun facts. It's just a basic fact.
Speaker 1: Because it set my expectation. You were exciting. I was
Speaker 1: so excited for the fun fact, and it's just a
Speaker 1: basic fact, all right, John, First of all, I apologize
Speaker 1: for all that back and forth. John, Twin Twinkle little Star,
Speaker 1: How I wonder what you above the world so high
Speaker 1: like a diamond in the sky, whin the blazing sun
Speaker 1: is gone, when he nothing shines upon. Then you show
Speaker 1: your little light, twinkle twinkle all the night in the
Speaker 1: traveler in the dark. Thanks you for your tiny spark.
Speaker 1: How could he see where to go if you did
Speaker 1: not twinkle? So the dark blue sky you keep often
Speaker 1: through my curtain's peep for you never shut your eye
Speaker 1: till the sun is in the sky as you or
Speaker 1: bright and tiny spark lights the traveler in the Dokh,
Speaker 1: I no not what you are. Twinkle Twinkle to star,
Speaker 1: Twinkle twinkle. That's gorgeous, John Bryan, everyone that was epic. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it might be hard to fall asleep to that for
Speaker 1: like little kids. No, that's gonna love them to sleep
Speaker 1: into a deep rem state off the first note. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna now sing Bob a black Sheet. I mean, musically,
Speaker 1: it's very similar to another nursery rhyme, Twinkle Twinkle little stir.
Speaker 1: In fact, if you think about it, both Boba Black
Speaker 1: Sheep and Tweet Gold Twinkle Little Star, or T T
Speaker 1: L S as I like to refer to it, are
Speaker 1: also very similar to the Alphabet song, which I'd like
Speaker 1: to refer to as T A S. The Alphabet song.
Speaker 1: It's it's almost like a lot of these nursery rhymes
Speaker 1: just used the same tune over and over again. Do
Speaker 1: you find that John a little bit? You know, they're
Speaker 1: written by three year olds. What do you expect? Or
Speaker 1: it's extremely lazy adults who have no creativity whatsoever. Look,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who just want to make
Speaker 1: money from writing, and they populate many buildings about this time.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't write the same melody over and
Speaker 1: over again, can you? I mean I've watched you work.
Speaker 1: You work your tail off, right, I try you bring
Speaker 1: your lunch pail. I mean, perhaps you've heard some of
Speaker 1: my work I wrote up. Oh that's gorgeous the way
Speaker 1: you dropped it down there, Say what? I was really
Speaker 1: one of my finest. That was a little macabre twinkle
Speaker 1: twinkle scooby doola, Yes, Edgar Allan Poe esque. That's what
Speaker 1: it sounds like when ar Allen Poe wakes up from
Speaker 1: a nap. That's his snooze on his alarm clock. I'm
Speaker 1: so excited about this next nursery rhyme. It's the one
Speaker 1: I sang to my son Walter all the time, and
Speaker 1: he he loved it. So many fond memories of singing
Speaker 1: this nursery rhyme with my my little guy when he
Speaker 1: was a tyke. It's a simple little tune that's been
Speaker 1: a huge part of our lives, always has, always will be.
Speaker 1: There's not a child anywhere in the world that hasn't
Speaker 1: sung this song. I think you should start this one. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me start it with it. M little something. Life's
Speaker 1: like a road that you travel along wind. There's one
Speaker 1: day here and the next day's gone. Sometimes you've been,
Speaker 1: sometimes you stand, Sometimes you turn your back to the wind.
Speaker 1: There's a world outside every darken door, where the blues
Speaker 1: won't aren't you anymore, where the braver free and the
Speaker 1: lover's soul come. Ride with me to the distan shore.
Speaker 1: We will hesitate, break down that garden gate. There's not
Speaker 1: much left to day light the highway. I won't ride
Speaker 1: it all night. If you're going in my way, I
Speaker 1: want to drive it all night long. Forget the words.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna do it this way. I'll keep jumping
Speaker 1: up the part again, Live the high Way. I won't
Speaker 1: ride it all night long. This is for you, Walter.
Speaker 1: I love you so much. If you're going in my way,
Speaker 1: I will drive it night long. M hm oh my God.
Speaker 1: Classic nursery rhyme is that Life as a Highway by
Speaker 1: Tom Cochrane. Thank you for listening. Everyone. This was nursery
Speaker 1: rhymes with John Brian. Thank you John for joining us.
Speaker 1: What a pleasure here. We'll be right back with the
Speaker 1: Ron Burgundy Podcast after these messages. Welcome back to the
Speaker 1: Ron Burgundy Podcast. We're all babies, we've just gotten older. Wow,
Speaker 1: that was really deep. I'm gonna fox some people up
Speaker 1: with that one. When I was a doulah, I once
Speaker 1: helped a Polish woman eager give birth to three Polish babies.
Speaker 1: It's called triplets. It happens once in a while. I
Speaker 1: pressed a damp washcloth up to the mother's forehead and
Speaker 1: brought her three little babies up to her face so
Speaker 1: she could meet them for the first time. They were
Speaker 1: just covered in this red and blue muck. Was just disgusting,
Speaker 1: all of it, and they were loud anyway. That was
Speaker 1: my last day on the job after those triplets. Well,
Speaker 1: three's a crowd. I'm in retirement. But don't worry now.
Speaker 1: My podcast listeners are my real babies, and just like
Speaker 1: my actual child, I'll pay attention to you for another
Speaker 1: two years. We'll be back next Thursday on the Ron
