WEBVTT - Bad Influences 0:00:01.720 --> 0:00:05.000 Wind Down with Janvick, Taylor and Michael Cousin and I'm 0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:06.840 on radio podcast. 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:08.640 Happy Monday. 0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:16.560 Bo. Yeah, so I learned something new about Mike and 0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:21.480 sure we were on We were in New York last 0:00:21.480 --> 0:00:30.120 week and Mike leaned over to me and he goes, 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:31.639 are you guys. 0:00:31.480 --> 0:00:33.440 There, Mark, Yes, yes, we're here, of course. 0:00:33.920 --> 0:00:37.040 Are you ready for this? So he leans over and 0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:40.000 he's just like, you know what just drives me crazy? 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:44.960 And I was like, what, what was it? I don't 0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:51.080 remember the Southwest? Oh yeah, I don't know why. It's 0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:55.800 just when people that are maybe not foreign and live 0:00:55.880 --> 0:01:01.240 in America and get onto a Southwest airplane or are 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.440 boarding a Southwest airplane and they ask a million questions 0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:07.920 because they don't understand how to. 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:11.800 A situation on Southwest? What's that because you don't have 0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:13.280 an assigned seat? Is that the issue? 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:13.520 Yeah? 0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:16.920 Yeah, and people it just blows people's minds. I'm a 0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:20.440 granted we travel so much, I mean, but it made 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.920 me think. I'm like, when when was the first time 0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:27.280 I took a Southwest flight? Like my first experience? I 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:27.920 don't remember. 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:32.399 I think I was super young when I took my 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:33.880 first one. 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:36.840 But how long has Southwest been doing that. 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.759 That's actually a really good question. I don't know. I'm 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:41.960 going to look that up. How long is Southwest? Mark? 0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:44.119 You gotta you gotta see how long I can take 0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:44.480 care of that. 0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:46.319 Yeah, But you know a great thing about Southwest if 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:48.400 I may, because I know some people are a little 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:52.520 bit honked off yourself, like, yeah, they don't charge bag. 0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:56.560 Fees, yeah, and for change fees for Southwest. 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:57.200 I understand it. 0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:59.800 But I'm baffled by that because at this point, if 0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:01.640 they didn't know, what would get mad at them. 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:03.160 But they don't, and I love that. 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.320 You'll see they opened in nineteen seventy one, But when 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.160 did they start doing the seat yourself thing? 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.880 I think it's always been seeing yourself? Maybe really I 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.800 don't I think so, but I mean, obviously I don't 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:21.040 remember remember. But it's funny though, because Mike said that 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.240 if it was an American he gets angry at But 0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.200 then he said that he saw these like two Chinese 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.920 people not knowing where to sit, and he's like, oh, well. 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:33.320 Just someone who's foreign who doesn't maybe isn't from America 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:36.240 and it's new to them. I empathize with that, but 0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:39.160 someone who I guess and it's just wrong for me 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:41.600 to assume that everybody flies all the time and should 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.560 understand it. It's not just asking one question. It's just 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:47.280 I experienced these these group are like three people the 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.320 other day when we're flying back from New York that 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:53.400 just asks like ten questions and just couldn't wrap their 0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:55.200 heads around it. And I just wanted to be like, 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:57.919 just get on the plane, set where you want. Yeah. 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:00.040 I can't imagine what questions two through ten would be, 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:01.760 because the first question would be so I can sit 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:02.399 wherever I want? 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:07.640 Yes, right, It's just funny what you get because like 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.440 you can be very it's just funny what you get 0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:13.960 upset about. Like I think stupid people that are stupid 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:17.320 you don't like, Like I think stupidity really bothers you, 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:20.560 because I know you get a little bit more annoyed 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:23.440 with me when I say things that are wrong or 0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:26.480 I say the wrong grammar, and so I think you 0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:28.680 it's just it's just funny because I think I think 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:31.000 it's just stupid people you don't like. But then who 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.280 on the flip side, though, you'll do some stupid things 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.240 and never but it's like you don't see that. But 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:38.840 it's like you know what I mean, it's just about 0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:39.800 seeing other people. 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:43.440 It's all about my perspective. How is it view the world? 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.760 If you don't view it my way, then it's oh, 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.280 I'm kidding now, it's just one of those things. 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:50.920 I have an interesting topic. Well, I don't even know 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:55.560 if actually I can talk about it. Why if you knew, Well, 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:58.200 because I don't know who listens to the podcast, Like 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.400 if it was someone that listens, and I don't want 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:01.520 to be offensive. 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:05.240 I think you have to go for it now. Now, yeah, 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:07.000 just genericize it. 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:15.920 Okay. Let's say there's someone in the neighborhood that has 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:22.040 a problem child and they were kind of known from 0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:25.880 the last neighborhood for example, like lighting things on fire, 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:31.760 vandalizing I mean to the point of like really gross 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:35.000 stuff that would you know it is throwing rocks and 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:41.719 then also I mean bullying kids, inappropriately touching younger children. 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:45.760 And then you find out they moved to your neighborhood. 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:48.800 What do you think, Because Michael and I've had this 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:52.359 conversation now because now we're on more of a high alert. 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:57.080 If that's some uncertain person moved into our neighborhood and 0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:02.680 it's do you make you or are you nice? Or 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.600 I mean, I don't know how to because I'm now 0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:06.800 a little bit scared because of the things that I've 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:10.520 heard that are not great? Or do you petition to 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:14.640 kick them out of the neighborhood? But can you even 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:15.320 you can't do that. 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:20.640 No, you can't do that. You can't they we don't 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:21.800 have the power to. 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:24.159 I would never want a kid, but I'm just like, what, 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:25.800 what do you like? Do you talk to the kid 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:29.880 that's in high school? And I empathize and I want 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:31.800 to be there, but also the things that I've heard 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:36.320 is scary. They basically we were warned stay away, So 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:38.520 it's do we make ourselves? Does he? 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:38.839 You know? 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.599 Mike was like, do I talk to him? And but 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.160 I'm like, but I don't want him to get scared 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:47.400 and then do something to the house or or bully. 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:49.320 You know, our kids are young. 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.760 But it's just something to be aware of. 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.320 I think, you know, I feel like you were going 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:56.640 to say something to the mom, which I was like, 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.720 I don't think you should say. I don't know. 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:04.719 It's one of those I want to where my heart is. 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:06.880 I want to kind of treat it as innocent until 0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.039 proven guilty, but the. 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:10.760 Cops have already been over there. They were already in. 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.120 He was already in like one of the other houses. 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:13.640 Right. 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:18.080 I understand that I met he seems so nice, but 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.640 when I I mean, my text for my friend was 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:23.599 stay away. He is bad news. He's the kid that 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.000 would potentially go into a school and do some bad 0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:31.039 stuff and that terrifies me for you know, other people, 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.719 especially the other kids in the neighborhood. But I don't 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:35.120 want to be that person either. I would love to 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:37.760 be able to help, but then you also hear the 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:39.919 stories when you help, they are also the ones that 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:40.640 hurt you too. 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.160 So but no, it's just one of those things that you, 0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.000 you know, you want to have a we have a 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.320 good heart about, but at the same time, ultimately you 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.880 have to protect your family and your kids. So it's 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:54.480 it's being able to be empathetic and helpful but also 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.960 keep our kids away. I think that's where we have 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:02.679 to stand with it. Yeah, we can be opened open 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:05.400 to it, but are not with our kids involved. 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.520 You know, my problem is my I play too much 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:09.760 scary movies in my head. 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.040 You did, I mean, you definitely go like worst case scenario. 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.080 I yeah, because our house is kind of like a 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:18.520 fish bowl. We don't have really many shades. So when 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.680 it's nighttime and he's gone, it's just you know that 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:23.920 movie Strangers where I feel like I'm just gonna look 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.680 to the to the all the open windows in the 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:28.720 house and just see these faces appear. 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.640 Oh gosh. And that's why we're having an alarm and 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:32.480 guns in the house. 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.920 And I know, but maybe shades. Maybe before you get 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.320 the alarm of the guns, get some shit. 0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.840 I ask for shades, but Mike says it's going to 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:41.280 ruin the aesthetic of the house. 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:43.200 I put my foot down on that one. 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.400 I'm just like, give me some shades. I feel like 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:47.239 I'm in a fish bowl. 0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:49.640 It's great natural light. 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.400 I wonder if there's a way to tint the windows. 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:54.200 Yeah, don't they have like the you can bring the 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:57.480 tinting down. There's like a sheet a tinted shade, or 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.200 you just hit a button that comes out. 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.280 Even having the reservoir above the windows wouldn't look at more. 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:08.160 Oi yo YOI I think we have some good emails 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:08.840 we should dive into. 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.320 No, we definitely have good emails, I think, but first 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:18.520 let's take a break.

Do you have Crocs on? 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:20.600 I don't have crocs on at the moment because I'm 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.760 at work and I'm a professional and Crocs. 0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:25.400 Are a leisure shoe I was wearing. 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:26.840 I've been wearing them a lot this month, though. 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:28.520 Well, I saw you hiking with them, and I was like, 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:31.240 I don't know if you should be hiking with Crocs 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.280 on I mean, I love Crocs. Jolie calls them her 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:36.960 alligator shoes, but I mean, you've really every time I've 0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:39.439 watched your stories this week or this month, it's been 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:40.240 c October. 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.400 Yeah, I've a you know, I was gonna do every 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:44.760 night of the month. I was going to profile a 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:46.600 different pair of Crocks for my collection, but I only 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:51.200 have three. I ran out of ideas after day three. 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:52.880 But I you know, I took it as a creative 0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:55.680 challenge and I've just been doing original Croc content every 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:56.800 single day of the month. 0:13:58.600 --> 0:13:59.200 That's huge. 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:00.920 Any fine heard from Crocs? 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:01.120 Oh? 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:04.040 Yeah, I've been messing with CROs. I've been trying to 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:05.920 get Crocs. I don't want like money or anything. I 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:07.600 just want them to know that I'm a passionate fan 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.120 and I have some questions for them. Actually, I've been 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:12.840 trying to get them to interview with me. No no answer, 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:16.240 no answer. And then finally Ben Higgins from the Almost 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:19.360 Famous podcast reposted one of my stories and Crocs came 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:20.040 reaching out. 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.520 Wow huge, your celebrity. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.200 Hey I'm just trying to spread the good word. Crocs 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:27.240 are a comfortable shoe. 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:27.720 Hey. 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:31.440 Did anyone read the Kanye West story? By the way? 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:33.240 Yes? Yeah? Interesting? 0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:36.200 What are hey, Tory? Do you want to give the 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:38.480 brief rundown of what the article said? 0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:42.280 Yeah, So basically it's him kind of saying that he's 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:45.960 redirecting his life. There was a lot in the article 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:50.720 about him like starting a church, doing a faith based 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:55.440 Christian album, but his struggle with sex addiction has been 0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:57.520 something he's been dealing with for a really long time, 0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.000 and so he's been opening up about that and basically, 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:02.240 I don't know, I just I think it's a really 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:05.640 interesting article to hear that Kanye West, and I guess 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:07.640 that he's kind of opened up about it prior. I 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:09.600 was looking at some other articles, but it was never 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:11.960 to this extent of him being like, here's where I'm 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:15.960 at and here's where I struggle with and yeah, so 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:19.160 that's basically kind of a little when you read it too, right, Mite. 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:22.280 Yeah, The thing is it's Kanye West. So I feel 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:24.400 like anything he says kind of has to be taken 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:29.120 with a grain of salt. Why because he just he 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:32.800 says outlandish thing and outlandish things, and he just has 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:33.800 is he still. 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.960 Running for president? Didn't say he was running sween twenty. 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.000 Exactly my point. Okay, So the fact that that even 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:41.240 came out of his mouth, it's hard to take everything 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:45.320 he says. And you know, if he claims that he 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:48.440 suffers from sex addiction, then you. 0:15:48.440 --> 0:15:50.960 Know that may that's such a that's such a big 0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:53.360 thing to just come out and say, right, I mean, 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:54.480 that would be kind of It's. 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:57.320 Kind of like when Dax Shepherd said something about that 0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:59.520 and he said, I used to suffer from sex addiction. 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:02.640 He said that, yeah, well, if you're a sex addict 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:03.720 use right, I know. 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.720 But and he's even I'm pretty sure he's in a 0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:08.800 twelve step program for drugs or something like that. But 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:12.520 so it's I don't know. It's just one of those 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:18.720 things that as someone who's open and out about it, 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.960 it's frustrating at times because I feel like in situations 0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:24.080 like this, it's just it just feels thrown. 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:28.440 Around almost if they're not making it. Because when you say, 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.160 like I use, when Dak says like I used to 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.960 be a sex addict, that's almost devaluing what the addiction 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:38.880 is from someone who has a big platform to be 0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:40.880 able to talk about addictions. So saying, like I used to, 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:42.640 that means that you can just get over sex addiction, 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.840 which that's not true. When you're an addict, you're always 0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:47.360 an addict, right, Yeah. 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.480 I mean maybe his not to make this about Dax, 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:53.680 but maybe his thing was more of something else alcoholic 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:56.320 drugs or something that was and maybe the sex aspect 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.760 was just a product of that. So I can understand 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:02.200 maybe someone folks seen more on another addiction if they 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:06.159 if they qualify for multiple addictions. Okay, so I can 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:09.040 understand that. Okay, maybe that's what he was saying. Okay, 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:13.360 But for like Kanye West, it's you know, it's just like, yeah, 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.440 I you know, suffer from sex iction two and then 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:19.400 what he's talking about with just a playborn magazine out 0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:23.040 and and everything, he doesn't really talk anymore about it. 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:25.080 It's just I don't know. Again, it's Kanye. It's kind 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:32.000 of confusing. I'm just afraid of someone just saying it 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:35.440 just to say it, but not understanding or not living 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:39.560 in recovery, or just saying that was a part of 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.200 their life at some point, because it doesn't say anything 0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:44.640 that he currently still does, or he goes to meetings 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:45.480 or anything like that. 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:48.639 So it's just I don't know, do you think people 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.879 can recover from sex addiction? Like when people say that, so, 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:53.679 I think Jada Pinkett also, I don't want to misquote her. 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:55.280 I believe she also said too that she had a 0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:55.879 sex addiction. 0:17:56.840 --> 0:18:01.399 She had, I don't. I don't see how it's a 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.560 past tense thing. It's an addiction, just like anything anything else. 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:08.000 People don't say I was an alcoholic, right. 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.720 I mean, I agree with you, Yeah, No, So, I 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:11.080 mean I. 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:16.200 Think that's just a little frustrating because again of someone 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:21.080 who's trying to, you know, educate people out there that 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.360
