00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 5: your oldest Yeah, Jackson. That's amazing, man. Yeah, super proud.

41
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 6: He's really worked hard, you know, he's actually come into his.

42
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 3: Own with football, and I'm really proud of him.

43
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 2: I mean, he's putting in all the work and doing

44
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 2: all the things that it takes to play this sport

45
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 2: and to play it well, and he's gotten a lot

46
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: more discipline.

47
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 3: So I'm super proud of him.

48
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 4: Just because it's worth hammering it into everyone's brains once more.

49
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 4: We are in Texas and this is high school football,

50
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 4: and you played high school football in Texas. I did,

51
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 4: and I think that people have a sense of what

52
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 4: that means. But what does that mean to you?

53
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 6: Well, it saved my life, But I think generally speaking

54
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 6: with just Texas and Texas.

55
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 3: Football, it's just a way of life for us here.

56
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 2: It's just something that we do and that we love,

57
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 2: and we love competition and good sport, and you know,

58
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: I think this is all part of it, and it's

59
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: it's great because it teaches these kids so many life

60
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: skills and life lessons and it is legitimately a true

61
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 2: joy of mine to watch watch the boys compete in anything.

62
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 5: So, Okay, what do you mean it saved your life?

63
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 6: Oh?

64
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 3: Because I was that was a hellion?

65
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

66
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 3: I had.

67
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 6: I didn't have a lot of structure and discipline, and

68
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 6: football gave me an outlet and it gave me something

69
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 6: to hyper focus on. And I think if I didn't

70
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 6: have that, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have I would

71
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 6: have made it through high school.

72
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 5: How do you see it playing into your son's life currently?

73
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 5: Do you think it's playing a similar role. Is it different.

74
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 5: I think it's a lot different.

75
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: I think he just has a true love, a genuine

76
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: love for the game, you know. And I loved it,

77
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 2: but I needed it like I allowed it to define

78
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: me and be my everything and all consuming. And and

79
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think jack is there. I

80
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: think he just loves his sport and loves to compete for.

81
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: Jackson's part of it.

82
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 5: It's a lot.

83
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 3: It's a lot healthier with him than it was than

84
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: it was with me.

85
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,400

106
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 7: football is just as much as I do. And I'd

107
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 7: say it's just a fun family tradition.

108
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: I would say, I mean, we.

109
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 7: All grow as a family from football, and yeah, it's

110
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 7: just fun. Because Ashley likes Texas, I like LSU, So

111
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 7: that's definitely a fun little like not a rivalry, i'd say,

112
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 7: but you know, it's fun sometimes, you know when you

113
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 7: know they'll both be playing on Saturdays, and I mean

114
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 7: we root for each other, but at the end of

115
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 7: the day, we both only like one team.

116
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 5: Yeah right, yeah, yeah.

117
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've definitely admitted that once or twice.

118
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 5: What kind of like sports parent are you?

119
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 8: Like?

120
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 4: How would you describe yourself involved?

121
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 2: I've told it way down and I told Jackson this

122
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: was gonna happen, which is true.

123
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 6: I mean, actually gonna test to it like before.

124
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: It's like I'm a fan, I'm a parent, I'm a coach,

125
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 2: like I'm trying to help.

126
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 5: Well.

127
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: Now, the the environment completely changes once they get into

128
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 2: high school school. Yeah, like real, like you know, they

129
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 2: have a lot of coaches and they have them there

130
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: for a reason, right, but yeah, I mean I get

131
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: into it.

132
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 3: Let them know.

133
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 2: When I saw I want to see him, you know,

134
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 2: pancakes somebody or see a great block that results in

135
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: a touchdown or a great run or a catch. I'm

136
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 2: still very involved.

137
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 3: But very I'm cool.

138
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 5: What do you think it means for your dad to

139
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 5: see you play?

140
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 3: I think it's cool.

141
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 7: It's so fun to like have that, like you know,

142
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 7: he's been on the field at one point and now

143
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 7: like I'm on the football field and you know, I've

144
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 7: played for me. But it's also cool that they support

145
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 7: me and what I do. I'd be playing like a

146
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 7: different sport like maybe baseball or basketball, and they'd be

147
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 7: just as into it as they are.

148
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 3: For boy.

149
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, and I think that's really cool that day support

150
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 7: me and everything that I do.

151
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 4: Does it feel like destiny that you were gonna be

152
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 4: a good father? Like was that always gonna happen? Was

153
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 4: that a guarantee? You think, like, was that always in

154
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 4: the tea leaves?

155
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: Well, no, because I was a shitty, horrible father for

156
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: the first seven years.

157
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 6: Is life, you know, the alcoholic addict.

158
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 3: So no, I think it's something you have to really

159
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 3: work at, you know.

160
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,239
Speaker 2: I think there's a drastic difference between being a parent

161
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: and having children. For me, being a parent is an

162
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: honor and it's the joy of my life.

163
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 6: And you know, I'll.

164
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: Look at our boys and I'm just in awe of

165
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: just how much more advanced in all the ways they

166
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: are and where.

167
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: I was at their age. Yeah, just how much quite

168
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: frankly better humans they were than me at that age.

169
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 2: You have to be fair across the board. I'll also

170
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: been very honest with them about how I was and

171
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: decisions I made and the things that I did that

172
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 2: I'm not proud of, and that you know, I've been

173
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 2: very very.

174
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: Open with them about that, and so I think.

175
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 6: That that's that's played a role.

176
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 3: In some decision making processes.

177
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 5: Okay, Ashley, and what kind of parent are you watching

178
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:26,679
Speaker 5: these games?

179
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: I am every bit the annoying football mom who loves

180
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: all of the school spirit and the buttons and the

181
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: moms and the homecoming posters and the sparkly paint and

182
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: all the things. I am eating this up. I love it.

183
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: We have waited for this day. Jackson is playing Texas

184
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: High school football, which is what it's all about in

185
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: this state, and so I am very proud football mom.

186
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,479
Speaker 4: A couple of dumb questions we got to ask. Okay,

187
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 4: homecoming is coming up for you? What's your mind frame

188
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 4: about that? Do you care?

189
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 5: Are you into it? What's your deal? Bro?

190
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 7: Honestly, dude, Like, I'm just I don't really care. I mean,

191
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 7: I think it's kind of like, I mean, I get

192
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 7: its tradition, tradition, but man, they go.

193
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 3: All out for that.

194
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 7: It's like everywhere and it's not even it's like two

195
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 7: weeks I think. I mean, me and Ash just made

196
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 7: that sign last night that you saw. It's like, man,

197
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 7: it's so much God.

198
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 4: And Okay, I do want to take a little divergence here.

199
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 4: There are some poster making supplies.

200
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 5: Why is at the house? Currently? Explain what why you

201
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 5: about the posters and what they're for.

202
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: Trust me, everyone that has a teenager or twenty something

203
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: knows all about it. But the promposals or the hokoposals,

204
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: Hoko is short for homecoming. That's how the kids ask

205
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 1: their date, their potential date for homecoming or promise. Now

206
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: they have to do a witty poster and give a

207
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: little gift.

208
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 7: I'm asking a friend to hoko and you usually just

209
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 7: you know, you go to their their friend's house and

210
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 7: they come out. Then you just ask and that's pretty

211
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 7: much it. And that's why I think it can be

212
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 7: like a little silly sometimes.

213
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, you hold up the sign basically as a way

214
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 4: of asking your girl out. Yeah, got you so. But

215
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 4: you're going with it. You seem to have a pretty

216
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: good attitude about it.

217
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 7: I mean, yeah, i'd say, yeah, Ashley's enjoying a lot,

218
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 7: I'd say that.

219
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 5: But you know, it's fun.

220
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,719
Speaker 7: It's definitely some quality time with really everyone. Whole process.

221
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: Jack and I begrudgingly, Jack and I are going to

222
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: be creating our witty little poster.

223
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 5: To ask a girl to homecoming.

224
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 4: Correct, and it has to be it's like a public

225
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 4: display also, that's a part of that, right.

226
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 5: This poster is not something you do in solitude.

227
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: Pictures are it didn't happen.

228
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 4: In front of it, in front of everybody, the correct man.

229
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 4: May the Lord be with these children, that's.

230
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: Just a different world. It's a game change. It's a

231
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: different world out there. It's dog eat dog world. Yeah,

232
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 1: you gotta have a poster and you better have a witty.

233
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 4: Saying what are you expecting tonight? What position is Jackson at?

234
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 4: Is he starting?

235
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: Like?

236
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 5: Where? What's going on here? Yeah?

237
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 2: Jackson's starting offense at h BAC and then he rotates

238
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 2: in at Mike linebacker, which is a middle linebacker on defense.

239
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 3: He gets after it, Like what do I expect to see?

240
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 2: I expect to see him get after it full speed

241
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 2: every single play. Yeah, yeah, and play as hard as

242
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 2: he can from the first whistle to the last whistle.

243
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 4: All right, Jake, you told me not to put the

244
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 4: microphone in your face during the game.

245
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't talk with you.

246
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 6: Why what are you going to be like, because I'm

247
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 6: hyper focused?

248
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, right, like your dial.

249
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 3: I'm being a president father. Yeah, don't stick a microphone

250
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 3: in my face.

251
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 5: I won't. I want to, I won't.

252
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 3: Dependent upon how the first off goes, don't do it

253
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 3: to that though.

254
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 4: It's time for me to leave Jake and Ashley alone

255
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 4: and let them watch the game. But we'll be back

256
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 4: after a quick word from our sponsors. Thank you for

257
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 4: sticking around. Let's jump back in with more football and.

258
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 5: More Jackson.

259
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 6: I want.

260
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 4: And the Reedy Lions are victorious. I loved watching you

261
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 4: play football the other day.

262
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was fun.

263
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 4: Go ahead, man, I kind of want to hear. How

264
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 4: is that game from your perspective?

265
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 3: It was intense?

266
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 5: For sure, go ahead.

267
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: It was fun.

268
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 5: It was a good team win.

269
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 7: I think we have a solid team, just sometimes we

270
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 7: got to keep our cool when other teams don't.

271
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 9: Yeah, talk about that a little bit. It seemed like

272
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 9: the other team was getting a little fisty.

273
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 5: Huh, Yeah they were.

274
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 7: They were definitely getting a little mad when we were running.

275
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 5: Out the score.

276
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 7: But we kept our cool towards the end, so it

277
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 7: was nice that we had some class towards the end.

278
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 3: For sure.

279
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 9: Did that come easy for you or did you also

280
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 9: want to start popping off?

281
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 7: I mean, I'd say it came kind of easy because

282
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 7: the following weeks, you know, some of the same things

283
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 7: kinda happen. So it's a learning experience for sure. Just

284
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 7: to keep my cool to you know, not cost my

285
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 7: team any more penalties and needed.

286
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 4: Do you have like any goals for your like, even

287
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 4: just as freshman year, like, where do you what are

288
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 4: you aiming for?

289
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 7: I'm gonna try to in the year with the three

290
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 7: point seven gpa or higher.

291
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

292
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 7: That's like my main goal, I would say, if you

293
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 7: like academic wise, uh huh. And then football honestly, just

294
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 7: keep having success and yeah, just keep working hard. I

295
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 7: think I'll probably be on for our city by junior year.

296
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 5: Okay, that's a goal. There you go.

297
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 4: Okay, another another question I feel compelled to ask because

298
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 4: I feel like it's on everyone's mind.

299
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 5: How old are you?

300
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 3: Fourteen?

301
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 5: You're fourteen?

302
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 4: Okay, you're in school. What's going on with AI and

00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 4: you and school?

304
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 5: What's what's up with that?

305
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 7: I just I've never really used AI for any projects.

306
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 7: Me and you were joking around the other day, chatchy BT.

00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, it actually did. I asked you to bet everything.

320
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 7: I was like, all right, here's the deal, here's the name,

321
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 7: here's some ideas, and it just gave me a breakdown. Honestly,

322
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 7: I was doing it as a joke from the start. Yeah,

323
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 7: but then I saw a good one and I was like, gosh,

Speaker 7: let's just use this one.

325

Speaker 5: And what's it like to watch your little brother play man?

327
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 7: It's definitely a learning experience, for sure, for you, for everyone,

328
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 7: because you know, sometimes like he's new and you gotta

329
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 7: like stay patient. And I remember being his age, and

330
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 7: I'm doing maybe the same as him, or maybe even worse,

331
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 7: you know, but it's definitely a growing experience for him us.

332
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 7: You know, he's doing great, he's adjusting to it.

00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 4: Jamo's step mom, and I'm just curious. I don't think

Speaker 4: you and I have ever really spoken about your journey

445
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 4: as a step parent. I'm just kind of curious to

446
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 4: hear what it was like in the beginning, what it's

447
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 4: like now, and what that evolution has been.

448
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 5: Like for you.

449
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely, it's truly one of the greatest joys and honors

450
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: of my life. We call it bonus mom. First of all,

451
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: I have two amazing steps ons. Like they are both

452
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: two of the most intelligent, hilarious, like to the point

453
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: that when I'm supposed to be disciplining them, I can't

454
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: because Jackson's so freaking funny that like, I just I

455
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: lose it. I'm laughing, And Jake's like really really babe,

456
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: Like he's hilarious, and Jamison is two they're both so quirky,

457
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: they're both so intelligent, and they're both so kind hearted.

458
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: So I'm truly blessed. But yeah, I mean, I also

459
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: had the advantage of knowing both of them before Jake

460
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: and I got together, because he and I were friends

461
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: for five years before we started dating, and so having

462
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,199
Speaker 1: known Jackson was the first person Jackson ever two stepped with.

463
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: You know, he's fourteen now, he was three at the time,

464
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: so that's just crazy to think about. And then I

465
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: remember when Jamo was a teeny teeny tiny little baby,

466
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: and so having known them. You know, Jake and I

467
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: got together when Jamo was two, and just having known

468
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: them for so long, I know that that helps. But

469
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: I truly love being a mother. I love being their

470
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: bonus mom. I love, you know, encouraging them and teaching

471
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: them and just helping guide them. I don't take lightly

472
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: the role that I have in their life in helping

473
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: them to develop into responsible citizens, that give back, that

474
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: are compassionate to others, that show grace in football to

475
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: people who are also kids, and it truly is. It's

476
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: one of the greatest joys. I listen to podcasts sometimes

477
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: about parenthood and I think one of the greatest things

478
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: I ever heard, actually was on a Mel Robins podcast,

479
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: was as a step parent, be sure to give that

480
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: child time with their parent. That's very, very important. So

481
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: in this case, it would be giving Jack and Jmo

482
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: one on one time with their dad, because while our

483
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: situation is a little different, I've been in their life

484
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: the majority of their life for both of them, you know,

485
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: knowing and realizing that this isn't the world they were

486
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: born into, and so really respecting those boundaries and giving

487
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: them that time. But with Jake it's really really important.

488
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: But I also just because we are so blessed and

489
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: they treat me like a mom. I've never looked at

490
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: them as anything other than my own.

491
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

492
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 8: I have a stepdad named Brian, and he's he's really

493
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 8: proud of me all the time, and I miss him.

494
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 8: He's always gone because he's a pilot and he's just

495
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 8: always gone and I miss him a lot. But I'll

496
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 8: be seeing him when I'm with my mom, so that's exciting. Yeah,

497
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 8: he just came back today.

498
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 5: Oh, very cool.

499
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:29,959
Speaker 4: What do you think you're gonna do with him when

500
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 4: you see him?

501
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 8: Probably give him a big old hug and talk to him,

502
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 8: have a nice dinner with him. And yeah.

503
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 3: Cool.

504
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 5: So you have a mom, a dad, a step mom,

505
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 5: and a stepdad. Do you feel really lucky about that?

506
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 8: Yeah? It small love and I'm grateful. Yeah, and I

507
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 8: ask some questions for you. Okay, all right, what do

508
00:24:51,680 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 8: you think about video games?

509
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 4: We need to squeeze in our last commercial break of

510
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 4: the episode, but when we come back, we get a

511
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 4: fat dose of Friday night lights at Jake's old high school.

512
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 5: Welcome back to the good stuff. Here we go.

513
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 4: Let's dig in at a Friday night varsity game at

514
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 4: Jake's alma mater, Coppel High School, home of the Cowboys.

515
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 11: Let's go watch some football.

516
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 5: Jake, what does Copel High School mean to you?

517
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 3: I mean, it's very simple.

518
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 2: I would not be where I am today without the administrators,

519
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 2: the teachers, principals, vice principals, student counselors.

520
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 3: Hell, the janitors were awesome.

521
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 2: And you know, one of them is still there and

522
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: still recognizes me. And when I go to the games

523
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 2: with the family, and they just mean everything to me

524
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 2: because they saw something in me that I didn't have

525
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 2: the ability to see in me at the time and

526
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 2: never gave up on me. And so shout out to

527
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 2: all of them, all the coaches that played a pivotal

528
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 2: role in me being where I am today.

529
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 10: I'm Laura Springer. I'm the principal of Cappo High School.

530
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 4: And if I'm not mistaken, you were a coach or

531
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 4: a teacher here when Jake was in high school.

532
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 10: Right, I was, And I was Jake's assistant principal for

533
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 10: a little bit. And my thing about Jacob, knowing him

534
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,919
Speaker 10: as a teenager, you had to see him the grit,

535
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 10: the work ethic, the drive he had as an athlete

536
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 10: was amazing. I kept trying to get that drive to

537
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 10: move over to the classroom side of everything and to

538
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 10: get out of the bed and come to school. And

539
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 10: there might have been a few times when I have

540
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 10: gone to Jake's house and said, get up, get to school,

541
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,479
Speaker 10: because you are going to graduate. I don't care how

542
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 10: if I have to drag you across the stage. But

543
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 10: I have to say, Jacob fo through. Jacob did what

544
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 10: he needed to do, and he is a person that

545
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 10: will always have a huge footprint in my heart because

546
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 10: he is a man that I am so proud of,

547
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 10: in love with my whole heart.

548
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 5: Well, thank you so much for doing that. Till we

549
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 5: have him, I told you absolutely football season, he never

550
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 5: missed a.

551
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,360
Speaker 10: Football what time, I guarantee you. But when that football

552
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 10: is over, I was like, Jacob, if you throw one

553
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 10: more thing across the.

554
00:27:44,720 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 5: Cup tier, how did it feel to go to the

555
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 5: game today? I love.

556
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 2: Look, it's that's my world, man. And you know, I

557
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 2: just dig that atmosphere. I dig the the energy. It's

558
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 2: awesome to be able to show you Jackson and Jamison.

559
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 2: You're like, Hey, this is what it's all about when

560
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 2: you this is why we work hard. This is why

561
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 2: we put in the extra work, because you know, this

562
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: is the feeling that you're you have to look forward to,

563
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 2: and in particular, Kapo High School will be always be

564
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 2: a home away from home.

565
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 10: For me.

566
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 5: It did feel like kind of a world of difference

567
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 5: between Jackson's freshman game and then this varsity game.

568
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 2: It's two different it's two different worlds, and especially in Texas,

569
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 2: when you go from you know, a freshman game and

570
00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 2: probably in the traditional sense of what people are picturing bleachers,

571
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 2: you know, to a high school that like Coppell that

572
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: you know, a lot of college facilities don't look that way.

573
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 4: No, yeah, I mean if people have seen Friday Night Lights,

574
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 4: the iconic TV show, it is very much that they

575
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 4: had a full on what are the jumbo tron you know,

576
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 4: with like digital led I don't even know what that

577
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 4: technology is. It's like a full on, like NFL style

578
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 4: stadium screen to watch up there. Thank you sponsors, Yes,

579
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,239
Speaker 4: thank you to the spot. Yeah, the Orthodon has had

580
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,719
Speaker 4: a bunch of local ads playing.

581
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 5: No, it was, it was. It was remarkable.

582
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 3: It really is.

583
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 2: It's a spiritual deal for me, I mean, especially because

584
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: of how I feel about sport football. Yeah, I owe

585
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: so much of my life to that sport because it

586
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: really pulled them out of a lot.

587
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 3: Of dark times.

588
00:29:53,560 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 2: And John, it was fun to get to share that

589
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: with you, especially you have the boat for the boys

590
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 2: in tow. And of course Jamison, I think it took

591
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 2: five minutes and he was sitting on the turf on

592
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 2: the sideline.

593
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: It's like, listen, if they come over here, you have

594
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 3: to get out of the way.

595
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 5: Uncle Nick was ready to snatch them, I know.

596
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 2: And then I think it was probably a couple of

597
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: minutes later that I snatched him up and then got

598
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 2: in front of actually and Jameson was like, in his feelings,

599
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: you grabbed me and pushed me, and I was like,

600
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 2: because I love you, and you weren't paying attention, and

601
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 2: if one of these guys runs into you full speed,

602
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 2: it's gonna be bad.

603
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 3: Man.

604
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: Pay attention because Jamison, I'm telling you, he's like looking

605
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 2: at the lights, watching his shadow and dancing to watch

606
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 2: his shadow move to his dance moves.

607
00:30:56,200 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: And I'm like, dude, yeah, that boy have some shadow.

608
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 5: It's just cool.

609
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: It's because you know, I mean, there's so many different

610
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 2: things in the world that you know, there's so many

611
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 2: differences of opinion, and you know, there's so much vitriol

612
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: when you can come together on something as simple as

613
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 2: the game of football.

614
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 3: Like I think.

615
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 2: That that and of itself gives you so much positive energy.

616
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 3: It takes you away from your life for those three hours.

617
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: And you know, you get to get immersed in it.

618
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: And I know that for a lot of diehard fans

619
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 2: that can be.

620
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 5: In the darkness.

621
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 9: You know, it's not always just like a pure meditation

622
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 9: exactly obsession.

623
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 2: But I mean that's you get what I'm saying right absolutely.

624
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 2: It's such a cool because there's just not a lot

625
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 2: of things that that give you that you know, they

626
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 2: give you that euphoria. For me anyway, I mean there's

627
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: not a lot aside from like personal time, my family

628
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 2: and my spirituality.

629
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 5: Shop boys.

630
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: First of all, Nick, thank you for you know, hanging

631
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: in with us. I know you landed last Wednesday and

632
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: we have literally footballed all day every day for the

633
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: past six days.

634
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 5: It was awesome.

635
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 9: How are you doing it's been yeah, I'm okay, coach,

636
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 9: keep me in the game.

637
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 4: It was a ton of fun. I love seeing Jackson's

638
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 4: team win. Ashley, you want to catch everyone up on

639
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 4: the other scores of the week.

640
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: The Coppell Cowboys beat the Booie Arlington Volunteers forty seven

641
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: to twenty six, and Jamison's Cowboys nine U team lost

642
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: buy a field goal late in the fourth.

643
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 5: Quarter final score three to nothing.

644
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 1: That was a controversial.

645
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 3: I'll leave it up to the roof.

646
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: I can't add ten seconds to the clock. Oh yes,

647
00:32:59,080 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: you can.

648
00:32:59,560 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 10: You know.

649
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 2: It's it's crazy though, because it's like the athletes pour

650
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 2: so much time, effort energy into the art, which is

651
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 2: the sport that they've dedicated to, and then the parents

652
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: pour so much time effort energy. You get this kid

653
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 2: to this practice, this kid to this practice. You know,

654
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 2: like I'm already had to order Jamison two new mouthpieces

655
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 2: because he's already chewed.

656
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 3: His first one in half.

657
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 2: All of this time, effort energy is poured into this thing,

658
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 2: and then because of some guy in a goofy outfit,

659
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 2: it can change it.

660
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 9: Yeah, you're like, how dare you take this away from

661
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 9: me and my family? I'm coming after you.

662
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,239
Speaker 1: And here's the crazy part about all of it. You

663
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: know their kids, their kids, I.

664
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 5: Mean even when they get to the league.

665
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're still kids, just like with you know, going

666
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 3: to war.

667
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 2: You're rock in Afghanistan's fought by a bunch of kids.

668
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think that, you know, it develops a lot.

669
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: Of skill sets that a lot of human beings don't

670
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 2: ever get right. Has never been in those types of situations.

671
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: Which is part of the reason we have our boys

672
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: in sports. You know, Jake and I were both in

673
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: team sports, and we saw the benefits of how they

674
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 1: helped us develop as young humans, and we certainly want

675
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 1: to pass that on to them.

676
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 5: Well, the love in the house is very apparent, and

677
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 5: I feel it because I'm also a guest in your

678
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 5: house while we're making.

679
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 4: This this week, and it's just it's been amazing having

680
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 4: dinner with you guys and all that, and uh, you know,

681
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 4: I feel like, you know, the weird uncles off in

682
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:31,959
Speaker 4: the corner.

683
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 11: Are you kidding me?

684
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: Those boys absolutely adore you.

685
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 2: They very fun, so much so that this morning we

686
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 2: were doing our gratitude we got to do on the

687
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 2: way to school. So we make the boys, can we

688
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 2: participate to when we don't just make them? We you know,

689
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 2: start a day with Okay, five things were grateful for?

690
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 2: And why Well, Jamison's fifth thing that he was grateful

691
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 2: for this morning was Nick and I kind of snickered

692
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 2: and then he immediately gets pissy and.

697
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,280
