Speaker 2: thank you. All right, we're going for it. Sam from
Speaker 2: South Texas, Why do you not talk about your wife
Speaker 2: on the show much?
Speaker 4: That's easy. Yeah, she doesn't want me to talk about
Speaker 4: her on the show much. My wife's a very private person,
Speaker 4: and you know she from the very beginning, like we
Speaker 4: I guess it's it's different for different people on the show, right, So,
Speaker 4: Like if I would have met my wife while I
Speaker 4: was on the show, I think she would have been like,
Speaker 4: you know what, that's your job, Like this is all
Speaker 4: I've known of you, so do what you do. But
Speaker 4: my wife and I we met long time ago, like
Speaker 4: a long long time ago. We got married a long
Speaker 4: time ago, and so getting on the show and talking
Speaker 4: on the show and sharing my life was something new
Speaker 4: to me, new to her, and we kind of did
Speaker 4: it together. And from the very beginning, she's just like, yeah,
Speaker 4: don't talk about.
Speaker 3: Me on the radio.
Speaker 2: Was there a segment that happened, Like, I think.
Speaker 4: There was one in particular. I remember there is one
Speaker 4: thing that happened when she kind of drew the line
Speaker 4: with my family being talked about on the radio, and
Speaker 4: that was Lunchbox.
Speaker 3: Of course it always does.
Speaker 4: We had like we had all gone to dinner or
Speaker 4: something and my son, my oldest son, now, he was gosh,
Speaker 4: I don't know, he's probably five at the time, yeah,
Speaker 4: and five or six, I don't know, and he was
Speaker 4: running around like while people were eating, and he would
Speaker 4: jump on people's laps and like it just this is
Speaker 4: kind of the way he was. And Lunchbox got on
Speaker 4: the radio the next day being like like and his
Speaker 4: wife are just terrible parents. Like we were trying to
Speaker 4: eat and he kind of bothered everyone and like, you know,
Speaker 4: like it's the last time we're gonna eat. And so
Speaker 4: she heard it and she was just like, he didn't
Speaker 4: say that while he was there, Like why is he
Speaker 4: acting like that now? And like, don't ever talk about
Speaker 4: our son like that, and she got so upset, and
Speaker 4: so I said, all right, well, like what do you
Speaker 4: want me to do. She's like, I don't want you
Speaker 4: to talk about our kids or me or any our
Speaker 4: stuff on the radio. And that was very early on,
Speaker 4: and I was like, okay, okay, that deal.
Speaker 3: Deal.
Speaker 4: But as you know, we talk a lot, yeah about
Speaker 4: our lives in the radio, and so slowly I would
Speaker 4: kind of run things by her and be like, I
Speaker 4: want to.
Speaker 3: Talk about this. Can I talk about that?
Speaker 4: And she'd be like, okay, you can talk about that,
Speaker 4: but don't mention this.
Speaker 2: Yeah. She had an editing level to that correct.
Speaker 4: And it took me about a good solid two years
Speaker 4: to get it down to where we both understood what
Speaker 4: I can talk about what I couldn't talk about.
Speaker 2: Well, it's a lot of learning, yes, because things happen
Speaker 2: you're not it could happen for the first time. You're like,
Speaker 2: I don't know if this feels okay to me, maybe
Speaker 2: not okay to her.
Speaker 4: And it's funny too because even in person, like if
Speaker 4: we're out somewhere and somebody recognizes me and comes up
Speaker 4: to me, I'll say hi to them, and I look
Speaker 4: back and my wife's gone. She's like the iris it
Speaker 4: like it's unbelievable. And so I'll always be like, all right,
Speaker 4: good meeting you guys. And then I'm like, where's my wife. Now,
Speaker 4: I gotta go find my wife.
Speaker 2: Like good on her though, figuring out how to dip
Speaker 2: out of it.
Speaker 3: She's so good at it. She's so good at it.
Speaker 2: She's like a mini Sherlock. Home it's like goodbye.
Speaker 3: So there's your answer.
Speaker 2: No, that's good. I don't think I even knew like
Speaker 2: that part of the story. DeBie wants to know how
Speaker 2: all the kids are getting along as they're getting older.
Speaker 4: Oh, man, like they're they're brothers. Like they get along
Speaker 4: like brothers. They fight and they have fun. They're goofy,
Speaker 4: and they kind of mess with us as a team
Speaker 4: as a group. All the stuff that just you know,
Speaker 4: they're they're awesome. And what I love about it is
Speaker 4: like especially the two men ones, my two middle boys,
Speaker 4: they're like just every minute of the day there together.
Speaker 4: When we pick them by school, there together, when we
Speaker 4: drop mob at school, they get out.
Speaker 3: Out of the car together.
Speaker 4: If they're at home and they start fighting, we have
Speaker 4: to separate them and as soon as like five minutes
Speaker 4: go by, they're back together again.
Speaker 3: It's really been best friends.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And what's cool is like I can't wait to see
Speaker 4: like them as adults. I feel like they're gonna be
Speaker 4: like you and your sister, you know.
Speaker 3: Where like like just talk to each other all the time,
Speaker 3: all the time.
Speaker 4: They know everything that's going on. I think even when
Speaker 4: they get married, they'll probably be like, yeah, hey.
Speaker 3: Man, like what you do with your wife and this.
Speaker 2: They're close in age, so that helps a lot. They're
Speaker 2: not in the same age, so right, there's.
Speaker 3: Another one year apart.
Speaker 2: Okay, they're really close. Yeah, so they'll go to school
Speaker 2: together for the rest of their life.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So they're doing really, really well. And there is definitely
Speaker 4: the gap between you know, the older son and the baby, Yeah,
Speaker 4: obviously because the baby's five and my older one sixteen.
Speaker 4: So there's the gap there. But and props to my
Speaker 4: oldest son too, Like he doesn't just get home and
Speaker 4: go to his room. We're like go hang out with friends.
Speaker 4: If he's around, he's around, and he talks to the boy. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's involved. He talks to the boys, jokes to the boys,
Speaker 4: do you guys all.
Speaker 2: Go as a family to like all the basketball games
Speaker 2: and stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Sometimes sometimes it we'll do like a game together and
Speaker 4: then either I'll leave with one of the boys and
Speaker 4: then maybe come back later in the day, or my
Speaker 4: wife will leave with two of the boys or one
Speaker 4: of the boys.
Speaker 3: It kind of works better that way, yeah, because you're
Speaker 3: not all worn out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I mean when we walk into a place,
Speaker 4: it looks like a rock band's coming in. Like there's
Speaker 4: a group of six people.
Speaker 2: You guys need to get a little bus to drive around.
Speaker 4: Yes, there is a family that I know and that
Speaker 4: plays a lot of sports too, and like I think
Speaker 4: they have six kids.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and they drive a sprinter van.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's hilarious because they pull up and that
Speaker 4: door slides open and all these kids pour out of
Speaker 4: it and it's hilarious.
Speaker 2: That's how it was with our family. We had a
Speaker 2: blue bus that had like it wasn't like a sprinter
Speaker 2: van now, the old school, so they had like the
Speaker 2: TVs and stuff in it. All four of us girls
Speaker 2: would be back there. We'd be going to volleyball term
Speaker 2: and I mean everything we'd be try like tracking along
Speaker 2: in it.
Speaker 3: I get it was your car just completely messy.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't remember that car, but I imagine
Speaker 2: that we made it.
Speaker 3: Like my kids, like they just mess our cars up.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like you can't have nice cars.
Speaker 3: The other day, I try to roll my window down
Speaker 3: and it was.
Speaker 4: All like like what's happening in the back window And
Speaker 4: there was like a jolly rancher stuck between the window
Speaker 4: and the door, and I'm just like, what is happening.
Speaker 2: This is why my dad to this day still yells.
Speaker 2: I mean he's like take your trash when you leave.
Speaker 2: Still as a thirty year old when I ride, like.
Speaker 4: Ask my kids next time you see him, asking him, Like, hey,
Speaker 4: does dad say anything when you park the car?
Speaker 3: When he parks the car when you get home? Every time,
Speaker 3: it's like take what's yours out of the car.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was funny. We were just talking about that
Speaker 2: when I was home for my sister's bridal shower. It
Speaker 2: was like, it's so funny. Get mad at the kids now,
Speaker 2: Like we talked about my decent nephew and like your
Speaker 2: kids and you get mad at them for doing stuff.
Speaker 2: You're like I did that though, Like I was doing that.
Speaker 2: I was leaving the lights on, I was trash and everything.
Speaker 2: I didn't have care in the world.
Speaker 4: And I hate it when other parents are just like, hey,
Speaker 4: let them be their kids, Like no, you can't just
Speaker 4: let them be, like we're teaching them how to grow
Speaker 4: to be adults.
Speaker 3: Oh, and you don't leave trash in your car Like yeah,
Speaker 3: but that's my car.
Speaker 2: It's different because you also know that you're gonna take
Speaker 2: the trash out at some point. Correct, they're never going
Speaker 2: they're gonna leave it forget about it first.
Speaker 4: Can you imagine if like they went to like, say
Speaker 4: your house, like or they hung out with you, right
Speaker 4: like Morgan, you pick them up, You're gonna take them
Speaker 4: to a movie, and they just like leave all their
Speaker 4: wrappers in your car, like you would think, like any
Speaker 4: what are you.
Speaker 3: Doing, like teach your kids how to like pick up
Speaker 3: their trash.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really more about them being somewhere else.
Speaker 3: Just with you.
Speaker 2: I totally get it. All right, We're gonna take a break.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back. We've got Connie from New Mexico.
Speaker 2: She wants to know if you feel like you're getting
Speaker 2: mean like Lunchbox.
Speaker 3: No, not mean.
Speaker 4: I think the album where I get sucked into is
Speaker 4: when lunchbox. Like, I'm always trying to like egg on
Speaker 4: lunchbox because I think it's funny. I think it's funny
Speaker 4: when he's like mean and then everyone makes fun of
Speaker 4: him for being mean, and so I like to kind
Speaker 4: of egg him on so that he can be more mean,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 2: But the problem vicious cycle, it really is, and.
Speaker 4: I think it's gotten to the point where like we
Speaker 4: need to chill. But what's funny to me is that
Speaker 4: when I, like, I get sucked into his meanness because like,
Speaker 4: I would never just make fun of him, but I
Speaker 4: like making fun of him to get his reaction.
Speaker 2: React.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's almost like it's almost like when there's like
Speaker 4: a chihuahua, you know that's like and then you're just like, oh,
Speaker 4: that's so funny.
Speaker 2: Have some weird experiences, but yeah, growing up, And I'm
Speaker 2: just saying, like, you have some weird experiences.
Speaker 4: I think I have trauma with you always because like
Speaker 4: my dad, so we had a chew all growing up.
Speaker 4: Side note, we had chew all growing up, and my
Speaker 4: dad loved that Chewawa. And I think my dad loved
Speaker 4: that chew more than he loved us any of us,
Speaker 4: probably right, And and like the whole family hated that,
Speaker 4: you all because he was just like, hey, don't mess
Speaker 4: with her, Like, hey, don't, guys, you're making her mad.
Speaker 4: And just like so we would like just kind of
Speaker 4: she would sit on the top of the couch like
Speaker 4: the very like right.
Speaker 2: You would traumatize this and and.
Speaker 4: She hated to be touched. And every time we would
Speaker 4: walk by, you touch and she got and.
Speaker 2: You deserve that.
Speaker 4: She didn't want to be so every time we walk by,
Speaker 4: we would give a little tickle and she'd snap at
Speaker 4: us or whatever.
Speaker 3: And that's almost like lunchbox, like I love doing a
Speaker 3: little tickle when.
Speaker 2: I pushing the button.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's so easy. It is easy to it's
Speaker 3: so easy.
Speaker 4: So but then the problem is you get sucked into
Speaker 4: his kind of net and then you're.
Speaker 2: Mean and then you're feeding off energy in that room.
Speaker 2: I know that room is really small. You feed off
Speaker 2: whatever energy is right, and this is strong. It is
Speaker 2: a real strong, okay, but not worried about.
Speaker 3: Worried about it.
Speaker 4: But you know what, though, it is true because like
Speaker 4: this past week, like there was all this like talk
Speaker 4: about oh Eddie's being mean to Abby, and it's like
Speaker 4: I felt a little bit of what Lunchbox goes through,
Speaker 4: because I'm like, I wasn't being mean. I was being
Speaker 4: helpful and honest, and I'm not Lunchbox honest or like
Speaker 4: you suck you can't sing. No, it's just like Abby,
Speaker 4: You're just standing there, like, if you're gonna do a
Speaker 4: showcase for a record label, which whatever wasn't true. If
Speaker 4: you're gonna do this, you gotta stir it up. You
Speaker 4: gotta like, you know, like really sing, you gotta entertain.
Speaker 2: And you were trying to provide constructive feedback correct.
Speaker 4: And then of course they said she was nasal, and
Speaker 4: so I just jumped on that and made the joke like,
Speaker 4: well maybe she covers everyone Nelson's you.
Speaker 2: Do like having little quips a thing.
Speaker 3: It's just a little joke. It's not mean. It's just funny.
Speaker 2: Hey, whatever makes sleep at night.
Speaker 3: Hey do I sound like a little too defensive little but.
Speaker 2: It was funny. I was just telling Lunchbox the other day.
Speaker 2: I was like, man, you just really I hate the same.
Speaker 2: I wish there was like another way to say it.
Speaker 2: I was like, man, you just love to beat a
Speaker 2: dead horse.
Speaker 3: Like you.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you don't know when to pull back. I'm like,
Speaker 2: it's totally cool to your opinion. You just got to
Speaker 2: pull that back after you've stated.
Speaker 4: I think that me, Lunchbox and Bobby are in the same,
Speaker 4: are the same where we like to if you react,
Speaker 4: we like to keep pushing.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you do. You're like, we're like, how many
Speaker 2: more buttons can we make? Light up?
Speaker 3: But but your job is to not react. Your job.
Speaker 4: If you are the other side of this, and I'm
Speaker 4: telling you this is how you stop it. You just
Speaker 4: say like okay and then just stop it and that's
Speaker 4: it and there's nothing we can do to that. You
Speaker 4: can just be like, all right, whatever, and we have
Speaker 4: to stop. We can't keep going because it's no longer funny.
Speaker 4: But if you start getting defensive and you're just like, no,
Speaker 4: Lunchbox that he's gonna keep going and he's gonna keep
Speaker 4: going and it.
Speaker 3: Will not end.
Speaker 2: No, You're totally right. And most of the time I
Speaker 2: can do that, I'll just laugh it off. I'm like whatever,
Speaker 2: But sometimes when it keeps coming, like multiple days in
Speaker 2: a or something, I'm like, okay, okay, this is building
Speaker 2: up and I'm about to lose it on you. And
Speaker 2: he knows it. He'll see me. Sometimes he'll be like, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm like not today. He's like okay, and we just
Speaker 2: keep moving and I'm like I have my limit and
Speaker 2: my mom is pretty high, like I have a pretty
Speaker 2: high tolerance for things. But I hit a point and
Speaker 2: I'm like, nope, we're not doing this today. Like sometimes
Speaker 2: I'll make some quick like first thing when I walk it,
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, not right now.
Speaker 3: And he's like god it, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2: But that's the only time he ever backs off, because
Speaker 2: every other time he does and that's only off when
Speaker 2: we're like in the hallway. Okay. Lauren from Virginia wants
Speaker 2: to know what do you care about most? Whoa very
Speaker 2: broad but.
Speaker 3: What do I care about most?
Speaker 2: Man? The Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 4: I mean, no, I do love my Dallas Cowboys, but
Speaker 4: I can't care. It's almost like it's that it's that,
Speaker 4: you know, if you had a relationship with someone that
Speaker 4: all I do is just let you down all the time.
Speaker 4: You're like, you still love them, but.
Speaker 2: You're like you're in a toxic relationship with the Dallas.
Speaker 4: Would I would? I'd say that's accurate. It's like it's
Speaker 4: like when you not maybe not your boyfriend, not your wife,
Speaker 4: not your husband, not that, but more of like your
Speaker 4: brother where or your sister where, Like you try to
Speaker 4: get a hold of them, you try to make plans
Speaker 4: to go to dinner, and they just never show up
Speaker 4: or they don't want to or whatever. And you're just like,
Speaker 4: you're still my brother. I love you, You're still my sister.
Speaker 4: I love you, But like I'm giving up on inviting
Speaker 4: you places. It's like that got it, you know what
Speaker 4: I mean.
Speaker 2: That's where you're at right now.
Speaker 3: I love my Cowboys.
Speaker 4: I love them, and every year I do think it's
Speaker 4: our year, and I do, you know, think we're going
Speaker 4: to go to Super Bowl. But I can't go all
Speaker 4: in until we start winning games. Now I'm not not
Speaker 4: to say that mid season. If we're like winning seven
Speaker 4: games in a row, I'm back to We're like, oh
Speaker 4: my gosh, I love you, You're my best friend. You
Speaker 4: want to go to dinner again, you want to go
Speaker 4: to dinner. Let's go to dinner. I'll pay this time.
Speaker 4: But then when they like lose in the playoff game,
Speaker 4: You're just like, see, this is why, this is why
Speaker 4: we don't go to dinner.
Speaker 2: That's a toxic, really timultuous relationship, So what do I
Speaker 2: care about?
Speaker 4: No, it's not the Dallas Cowboys. I think just my family.
Speaker 4: Like really, when it comes down to it, like I
Speaker 4: love other things, and I love other people, and I
Speaker 4: love all this, but like I do everything.
Speaker 2: For my family, you know, like good old family man
Speaker 2: like that.
Speaker 4: Like that's when when it comes down to it, that's it.
Speaker 4: What's what's beneficial to my family? Like is is this
Speaker 4: good for my family? Like if I go do this,
Speaker 4: like if I go to dinner with my friends on
Speaker 4: a Friday night, or to I take my kids to practice,
Speaker 4: like you know, it's like that kind of thing.
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: I just say, this is why you're saying that, like
Speaker 2: when people become parents, they disappear.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's exactly why.
Speaker 4: But true, true story because like even like me and
Speaker 4: some of my really good friends, like I don't talk
Speaker 4: to a lot of my really good friends because like
Speaker 4: we're just busy with our family. I saw one dad
Speaker 4: a couple of days ago that I used to talk
Speaker 4: to all the time, and I'm like, dude, how you been.
Speaker 3: He's like, oh man, I'm busy, Like how how are
Speaker 3: you guys? They're like, yeah, busy. We kind of looked
Speaker 3: at each other and it was like that whole like
Speaker 3: I understand.
Speaker 2: Well, this is also why I feel like it's important
Speaker 2: to have friends in your phase of life. Yes, like
Speaker 2: you can have all different kinds, but it's very important
Speaker 2: to have friends that understand the position in your life.
Speaker 2: You're totally so like you're not mad at each.
Speaker 4: Other, then you're no, no, we looked at each other
Speaker 4: and we're just like I get it, Like I get it.
Speaker 3: I miss you too good to see you.
Speaker 2: Also, we're going to get back to this crazy life
Speaker 2: right right, all right, Christina, I almost say Kristen Christina
Speaker 2: in Virginia wants to know your favorite too much access
Speaker 2: shoot so.
Speaker 3: Far ooh that's a good one. Gosh, we had some
Speaker 3: really really good fun ones.
Speaker 2: I'm biased, I have one, but I'm biased of course.
Speaker 3: That was really cool. I loved Kansas State.
Speaker 4: Kansas State was the first school that we went to
Speaker 4: where we felt like really welcomed, not to say that,
Speaker 4: and no one really like they didn't treat us well.
Speaker 4: Kansas State was like this place is yours.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's just how Kansas people are.
Speaker 4: You want to go on the field, that's your field.
Speaker 4: You want to go in the press box. That's your
Speaker 4: press box. You want to go to the locker room, you
Speaker 4: want to lift weights, let's do it. Yeah, And that
Speaker 4: was really cool. I'm like, wow. The head coach, he's like,
Speaker 4: I think it was his birthday. And I made the
Speaker 4: joke of like, were you going to chili to night?
Speaker 3: Like what are you gonna do?
Speaker 4: You're going to like dinner with your family? He's like, yeah,
Speaker 4: we might go do dinner. And he literally was like
Speaker 4: what do you are you guys in town? Are you
Speaker 4: guys spend the night? Like do you want to come?
Speaker 3: And are like no, we gotta leave. We can't go
Speaker 3: to dinner with you.
Speaker 2: Tracks. That's just Kansas, Like Ks are just good people.
Speaker 4: That was really cool. But I have to say that
Speaker 4: my favorite. Gosh, there's so many, there's so so many,
Speaker 4: And we have a whole series coming out that's cool
Speaker 4: called Legends.
Speaker 3: I don't even know what we've talked about this and
Speaker 3: I might get.
Speaker 4: In trouble for this, but where we've talked to athletes
Speaker 4: that aren't playing anymore and they're like legends in the
Speaker 4: sport and we've gone to their houses and it's.
Speaker 3: Really freaking cool.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's awesome.
Speaker 3: You go to their house and you're like, Wow, you
Speaker 3: made a lot of money.
Speaker 2: That's what you're thinking.
Speaker 3: Wow, you have a lot of cool stuff. No, because
Speaker 3: like we went to wine, I'm just giving your art time.
Speaker 4: We went to one in Oklahoma where it was like,
Speaker 4: this is what if I had a lot of money,
Speaker 4: m m, this is what.
Speaker 3: I would build.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like the look at kind of post athlete life.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that are like they can't play sports anymore, so
Speaker 4: what do they do? They build a sports complex in
Speaker 4: their house, like on their property. So like that's cool.
Speaker 4: But I would say Arkansas, I'm gonna go to Arkansas
Speaker 4: because when we went to Arkansas basketball, it was the
Speaker 4: first time that we got to sit through a real
Speaker 4: practice and it was full fledged practice, a full practice,
Speaker 4: and we didn't play. We didn't we weren't goofy, we
Speaker 4: didn't dress up like, we were't cameras rolling. We just
Speaker 4: sat and watched them practice practice, like and it was
Speaker 4: really unbelievable just to see kind of the drills that
Speaker 4: they do, how they prepare for a game, how the
Speaker 4: roles of the different coaches have. Like you know, he
Speaker 4: would come out and be like, all right, coach so
Speaker 4: and so, tell him about the uh just for example,
Speaker 4: they weren't playing Kansas. Tell tell tell them about kansastateen
Speaker 4: can't stay at offense. Here we go and he gets
Speaker 4: a big marker. But we got the number five here,
Speaker 4: and number five likes to do this. The number four
Speaker 4: does this all the time. He's they're the number three shooting,
Speaker 4: three shooting in the in the country. They like to
Speaker 4: drive the ball, bah whatever, and like it was just
Speaker 4: these guys no basketball, way different than we do.
Speaker 3: But they just.
Speaker 2: Really too much access.
Speaker 3: It was really too much access to where we didn't
Speaker 3: understand what they were saying.
Speaker 2: What is happening?
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Like I coached my kids basketball team and I thought
Speaker 4: I kind of need basketball and that I don't know, crap.
Speaker 3: These guys know basketball.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, you know they're trying to make it pro too.
Speaker 2: You know. They got about their life.
Speaker 3: That's their life, so that makes sense. Auburn was really cool.
Speaker 3: We've done a lot of really cool ones.
Speaker 2: You're only allowed to have one.
Speaker 4: You're right, I'm sorry, just one Arkansas because we sat
Speaker 4: in their practice.
Speaker 2: Okay, we'll be right back. We got two more questions,
Speaker 2: all right, So we've got to their kind of advice
Speaker 2: ideas things. So Christina, I think this one is geared
Speaker 2: towards and the next one is definitely curus towards you
Speaker 2: because I can help about one. Christina is planning a
Speaker 2: thirtieth birthday for someone who wants to party but also wants.
Speaker 3: To relax and have that you let's go.
Speaker 2: Yes, But like, if you think of anything while I'm
Speaker 2: talking about these, I don't know, well, you still war
Speaker 2: thirty times of change. Oh my goodness. Now like before
Speaker 2: you can yelled at when I called you guys dad
Speaker 2: or like dad jokes, and now you're like, yeah, that's me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right. All I tell is dad jokes.
Speaker 2: If I'm not, you finally accepted everything. It only took
Speaker 2: like five years, that's right. I think there's a few
Speaker 2: things that come to mind. You need to go somewhere
Speaker 2: that you can do some fun hiking or lay by
Speaker 2: a pool, and then also have this kind of environment
Speaker 2: where there's things to do and the things. Yeah, definitely
Speaker 2: do a trip for your thirtieth if you can, because
Speaker 2: I think the thirtieth is such a big year, and
Speaker 2: we put so much focus on when people get married
Speaker 2: and they have babies, and those are the times we celebrate.
Speaker 2: You should celebrate really big milestones in your life, and
Speaker 2: thirty is a huge milestone. And it's also one that,
Speaker 2: like a lot of stuff is about to change. And
Speaker 2: so if you can do even a little road trip
Speaker 2: doesn't have to be like I'm flying away forever, but
Speaker 2: a little road trip would also be cool. And maybe
Speaker 2: there's something I'm not sure where you guys are at,
Speaker 2: but maybe there's somewhere like that near you all that
Speaker 2: you could do for a road trip. But some places
Speaker 2: that come to mind for me are like a Sedona, Arizona,
Speaker 2: nice really cool hiking. They have some really cool stuff to.
Speaker 3: Go out to, those of the canyon side.
Speaker 2: I was in Sedonia at one point, but we never
Speaker 2: that was in Utah a little bit further. There's not a
Speaker 2: lot of partying in Utah. So that's why I wanted
Speaker 2: to suggest that one Jackson Hole is another one. I
Speaker 2: would suggest they have some insane mountain hike.
Speaker 4: School Jackson Haw, Wyoming. Yeah, and how's that nightlife you
Speaker 4: want to party live?
Speaker 2: Oh, there's some clubs there, not clubs, I should say clubs.
Speaker 2: That's different than a bar. There's bars that are really cool,
Speaker 2: Like there's a cowboy bar there that's awesome, and there's
Speaker 2: some going out in that small kind of area. And
Speaker 2: then another one that comes to that I thought of, Now,
Speaker 2: this is taking it in a kind of different direction.
Speaker 2: You don't really have hiking, but if you want to
Speaker 2: like lay out by the pool and spend some time,
Speaker 2: you could do my own why Oh okay, well, oh.
Speaker 3: Dude, Hawaii is I mean, Hawaii, Miami is corrazy.
Speaker 2: That's party and if you want to party, you have that.
Speaker 2: But you can still lay out and kind of hang
Speaker 2: out by the pool and still have a little bit
Speaker 2: relaxing kind of Miami vice, but not the beach.
Speaker 4: Because the beach is closed early in Miami. Do they
Speaker 4: really Yeah, I mean they don't close, but it's kind
Speaker 4: of just like they die out real early.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 2: See, then you can go to the beach during the day.
Speaker 3: Sure, and then you go and party. Yeah, partied up man.
Speaker 3: And there are some clubs in Miami right.
Speaker 2: Like, so that's that's kind of on the extreme version.
Speaker 2: If you really want clubs, if you just want to
Speaker 2: go out and have a good time, I think Sedona
Speaker 2: or Jackson Hole could work for that. And I'm trying
Speaker 2: to think. Denver's also really awesome. Okay, Denver's a great
Speaker 2: place that you have everything. You have mountains, you can
Speaker 2: go an hour out and you can go and do whatever.
Speaker 2: Denver has a great night life, so much to do,
Speaker 2: lots of places to eat where you can kind of
Speaker 2: do one or the other or both. Those are few places, Okay,
Speaker 2: anything that comes to mind. Yeah, you did say Hawaii,
Speaker 2: but I feel like that's like a.
Speaker 4: Go to forty now, I mean at thirty. Yeah, big
Speaker 4: year for sure, right, But like I don't. I mean,
Speaker 4: I like all those places. I've never been to any
Speaker 4: of the places you said though.
Speaker 2: You've never been to any of those?
Speaker 3: No, the only one on Miami. I've been in Miami,
Speaker 3: but that's the.
Speaker 2: Only one I haven't been to. Okay, but I've heard
Speaker 2: a lot about it from people.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been in Miami a few times, but I mean,
Speaker 4: Jackson Hole, never been there.
Speaker 3: Sedona heard about it.
Speaker 2: I mean, you would love it.
Speaker 4: I bet I'd love it. It seems like it's really
Speaker 4: really cool Denver. I've been to Denver, but I didn't
Speaker 4: party there. I just kind of we played a show there.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2: You got those four.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, Denver's cool.
Speaker 4: Denver's cool, but like, I didn't have that experience there,
Speaker 4: so I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, Denver's Denver's like the og of hiking and
Speaker 2: going out. Okay, at least I feel like that's probably
Speaker 2: because I grew up in Kansas. Right now, So there, Okay,
Speaker 2: this one is for you. Miss Sandy needs some advice,
Speaker 2: and I'm going to make sure I get this all right,
Speaker 2: because it came in like twenty different questions.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: She has an eighteen year old stepson who lives full
Speaker 2: time with them, apparently, and I'm reading this from her perspective.
Speaker 2: He thinks since he just turned eighteen, he can do
Speaker 2: whatever he wants, and now he would like to live
Speaker 2: with his mom. However, mom's house is a bit chaotic
Speaker 2: and there's not a lot of rules, and he has
Speaker 2: a full ride scholarship, and our listener, Miss Sandy, is
Speaker 2: worried about him messing it up. Yeah, what can she
Speaker 2: do to help him in this phase of his life?
Speaker 3: Yeah, gosh, that's tough because he's eighteen, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, A lot to break down here, A lot to
Speaker 4: break down here, Miss Sandy. I wonder you read it
Speaker 4: so I wonder what would you think, so step son,
Speaker 4: you think she so it's her.
Speaker 3: Husband's yes, son.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's just.
Speaker 4: So hard because like as a step parent, I don't
Speaker 4: know how much you can actually tell uh stepson anything
Speaker 4: much less than eighteen year old step son, because like
Speaker 4: eighteen years old, it's kind of just like all right,
Speaker 4: that's the Miles Stone age where you're like, you can't
Speaker 4: tell me.
Speaker 3: What to do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it is technically like they are full blown
Speaker 2: they're an adult adult, you know.
Speaker 4: And I think that if there is financial control, if
Speaker 4: there is like a home, you know, like that he
Speaker 4: lives there and you've supported him, and he lives at
Speaker 4: your house, like you have that control. But if he's
Speaker 4: just going to leave and go to his mom's house,
Speaker 4: you have no control. I think you sit him down.
Speaker 4: This is my advice. Understand that you don't have control here.
Speaker 4: Like there's nothing really you can do other than just
Speaker 4: gain his trust and his ear to listen. It's for
Speaker 4: him to listen to you. And because you're right, you're
Speaker 4: only thinking of the best thing about him, like the
Speaker 4: best thing for him, which is to go to school.
Speaker 4: But in his mom's house, unfortunately, is chaotic and is
Speaker 4: going to kind of give him the opposite of what
Speaker 4: you want for him, which is the best thing for him.
Speaker 4: But you can sit down with him, and you can
Speaker 4: get his trust by sitting down with him and say, hey, look,
Speaker 4: i'm looking I'm looking for your best interest here, Like
Speaker 4: I'm looking out for you. This isn't because I want
Speaker 4: you to hang out here. I want what's best for you.
Speaker 4: And what's best for you is to go to college.
Speaker 4: Is I love your mom. Your mom's great, Like, but
Speaker 4: let's be real, it's chaotic over there. It's not the
Speaker 4: best environment for you to grow over there. And plus,
Speaker 4: like I would make ooh, I got a good idea.
Speaker 4: I would make the house a really cool, cool, cool
Speaker 4: place for him.
Speaker 3: Like what do you want? What do you want? You want?
Speaker 4: You want your buds to come, like play video games
Speaker 4: and like hang out and like have a party here
Speaker 4: at the house, like whatever, bring your friends here, Like
Speaker 4: you can hang out here. We can be fun here too.
Speaker 4: But I want you to be responsible because it's best
Speaker 4: for you. I think the conversation is probably best. But
Speaker 4: like to think that you have control. You have no
Speaker 4: control of an eighteen year old son, much less a
Speaker 4: step son.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why do you think I have nothing. I'm not
Speaker 2: a parent, so I'm not even going to try and provide.
Speaker 3: Advice so hard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think you have I think what you
Speaker 2: said is really good.
Speaker 4: And Miss Sandy, here's the deal too, Like you care
Speaker 4: for him, which is an that's a big deal. Like
Speaker 4: I think most stepparents are just like, you know what,
Speaker 4: he's difficult, he's impossible, he's really not my son. I
Speaker 4: think that's the stance that a lot of stepparents take
Speaker 4: sometimes after like when they're having hard times with their
Speaker 4: step kids. Not you, Miss Sandy, Like you can really
Speaker 4: make a difference in his life. So keep going, like
Speaker 4: keep trying to talk and talk it into him and
Speaker 4: create a really fun environment too where maybe he does
Speaker 4: want to hang out at your house more than his
Speaker 4: mom's house.
Speaker 2: I think that's great advice.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 2: You nailed it.
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's a tough one.
Speaker 2: This is why you're called Eddie the dad.
Speaker 3: Edie the dad.
Speaker 4: Somebody came out to me the to day and they
Speaker 4: just like got right in front of my face said
