Speaker 1: Help We Suck At Being Newlyweds.
Speaker 2: With Dean Aungler, Haylen Miller Keys, and Jared Haven, an
Speaker 2: iHeartRadio podcast. Hello everyone, Welcome to an all new episode
Speaker 2: of Help We Suck At Being Newlyweds? I am joined
Speaker 2: by Dean Bell and Jared Haven.
Speaker 3: Is that legal? Is that legal now? Dean Bell?
Speaker 1: No, Kalen Bell No.
Speaker 2: Once we figure out this house situation, then we'll change
Speaker 2: our names. And then we have to make sure that
Speaker 2: we're not traveling for a bit because we have to
Speaker 2: change our passports and all that. So trebling.
Speaker 1: That's why I haven't changed my address on all my
Speaker 1: billing for credit cards or banking information. It's still my parents'
Speaker 1: house because if I change it, I have so much
Speaker 1: direct the positive that comes out of there, for between
Speaker 1: Audrey's and my business personal business. It's like I'm not
Speaker 1: going to go through each and everything and then have
Speaker 1: to change all of my billing address. So just you know,
Speaker 1: I still get mail at my parents' house.
Speaker 2: That seems like the most five years old. But what
Speaker 2: are you going to do when you moved to Virginia?
Speaker 1: Who the hell knows? They'll probably still get mail. Then
Speaker 1: my dad will mail it to me like a third party.
Speaker 4: I always wonder how much mail I'm still getting at
Speaker 4: like my old house, like from that I lived in
Speaker 4: like ten years ago.
Speaker 1: You know, do you ever have anxiety that you're getting
Speaker 1: mail about how if you don't respond it's the irs
Speaker 1: that you're gonna get arrested?
Speaker 3: You know? I do?
Speaker 1: Sometimes there's probably a Warren out for your arrest right now.
Speaker 4: I do sometimes get anxiety for that. But I'm like,
Speaker 4: if it's really that important, they wouldn't be sending me mail.
Speaker 3: Mail the place.
Speaker 2: So if there's a worn out for your arrest, they
Speaker 2: don't notify you, right like it's just a known thing
Speaker 2: amongst cops because you had a Warren out once and
Speaker 2: you didn't know.
Speaker 4: I think I did know. Oh, I think I did know,
Speaker 4: But I don't. I think I had a feeling. It's
Speaker 4: not like I knew. It's not like I was informed. Hey,
Speaker 4: you have a Warren towse.
Speaker 2: You should be notified, right Yeah, unless that's like a
Speaker 2: flight risk thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's good. That's a good point.
Speaker 4: But no, I don't, Jared, to answer your question, I
Speaker 4: don't really get anxiety about that. I maybe to have before,
Speaker 4: and it's actually kind of funny because the girl that
Speaker 4: lives in the first house I lived in LA was
Speaker 4: I think a guest on this podcast at one point
Speaker 4: because she went on a reality show and she was
Speaker 4: getting some big mail for me and she thought it
Speaker 4: was like an IRS thing, and I was like, no,
Speaker 4: this is this is pointless. Mail is so stupid. Mail
Speaker 4: has no purpose mail. The only thing mail is good
Speaker 4: for is wait, I'm sorry, there's nothing that mail is
Speaker 4: good for. The only thing that mail is good for
Speaker 4: I just got a new credit card and that came
Speaker 4: in the mail yesterday. That's the only thing I could
Speaker 4: think of that mail has served a purpose for. Like everything,
Speaker 4: everything should be electronic, everything should be on email.
Speaker 3: How do you get paid for this podcast? Bro?
Speaker 2: Mail could be direct deposit.
Speaker 3: It should be direct deposit. We're living in the past.
Speaker 4: It's so it's and I'll go take this to the
Speaker 4: grave because, like you said, Jared, if something incredibly important
Speaker 4: is being sent to my house that I lived in
Speaker 4: ten years ago, I would never know. And there were
Speaker 4: times in my life where I was like, I wonder
Speaker 4: if this is gonna sound so stupid. I wonder if
Speaker 4: this envelope has like a transmitter and if I if
Speaker 4: I open this letter, then this organization will know that
Speaker 4: I open the letter, and then I'm more liable to
Speaker 4: follow through the orders on it. Because there were times
Speaker 4: where I was like, oh, like you know, whether it's
Speaker 4: like a court order or whatever it is.
Speaker 1: That would be like the nineteen eighties version of having
Speaker 1: read on your text messages.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, Like, well I wonder I always wonder what
Speaker 4: they would be. But no, I don't have stress about
Speaker 4: that anymore. Because that's my argument. If I go to
Speaker 4: court and they're like, we've been trying to reach you
Speaker 4: for three years, four years, what's up, bro, I'd be like, Yeah,
Speaker 4: you've been trying to reach me via mail. What do
Speaker 4: you expect me to do? Get my mail and open it? No,
Speaker 4: thank you.
Speaker 2: It's so funny when you and Jerry go on these tangents.
Speaker 2: You sound like grumpy old men.
Speaker 1: Sometimes are either children or grumpy old men. I don't
Speaker 1: really tell a.
Speaker 4: Difference how the grumpy old man complain about mail. If anything,
Speaker 4: I'd be complaining about email. True, do you want me to
Speaker 4: click on something?
Speaker 2: Why don't you just mail it.
Speaker 5: Over?
Speaker 2: Fact?
Speaker 1: You know what it's going to turn into email? Because
Speaker 1: as the older generation dies off. It's not used to
Speaker 1: email and used to mail. Now we're getting older, we're
Speaker 1: used to email, and it's going to be something else.
Speaker 1: It's going to be like dms on Instagram, just DMB.
Speaker 2: I think we were very hard on gen Zers for
Speaker 2: the longest time. I think gen Zers are going to
Speaker 2: change the world.
Speaker 3: Is that the one below us? Yeah.
Speaker 2: I just think they're so aware of the world and
Speaker 2: they want change to happen, and they're so I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think everyone was so hard on them. They're like
Speaker 2: these stupid kids. They grew up with iPads. But I
Speaker 2: think they're going to be the ones that change the world.
Speaker 3: Yeah. How much screen time do you give Dawson? Uh,
Speaker 3: you know, there's a few.
Speaker 1: We try to limit it, but he definitely watches like
Speaker 1: a couple Powers of TV.
Speaker 2: Yeah in there, Miss Rachel.
Speaker 1: I mean, what are we going to do. There's nothing
Speaker 1: we can do. Yeah, it's just there. We grew up
Speaker 1: on TV. He's gonna have TV a part of his life.
Speaker 1: He's gonna have phones a part of his life. We
Speaker 1: try to reduce it. We try to interact while watching.
Speaker 1: I mean there's things that we supplement, but it's like
Speaker 1: it's simple, what are we.
Speaker 3: Supposed to do?
Speaker 4: Here's the difference, and that it doesn't exist. The biggest difference,
Speaker 4: and it probably isn't even that big of a difference.
Speaker 4: But when we were kids, we would have to like
Speaker 4: once a week at seven pm, we would have to
Speaker 4: sit in front of the TV at six fifty seven,
Speaker 4: and you get excited for your TV show to come on.
Speaker 4: But now kids can just go on their iPad and
Speaker 4: be like, I want this episode on right now, Boom
Speaker 4: it's on.
Speaker 3: And you know, I wonder what that's going to.
Speaker 2: Do to them, not having to wait for their show. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's gonna having to sit through the commercials because if
Speaker 2: you if you leave during the commercial you might come back.
Speaker 4: You're gonna give them so much entitlement because they're gonna
Speaker 4: be like everything that I want, I get right then.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but too much.
Speaker 2: What I'm saying is people are so critical of gen
Speaker 2: z ors for that reason, and I think they're not
Speaker 2: as bad as people think they're going to be.
Speaker 1: I was looking up dating for gen Zers because jen
Speaker 1: Alf is too young as of right now, and I
Speaker 1: was trying to see if there's any gen z like,
Speaker 1: if there's anything in the dating world of gen Z
Speaker 1: that is repetitive or we can kind of talk about.
Speaker 1: But the problem is the biggest thing. It's said that
Speaker 1: gen Z is getting rid of dating apps. They're not
Speaker 1: going on dating apps as much anymore, and they're trying
Speaker 1: to They said that they'd rather There is a poll
Speaker 1: that said they'd rather clean a toilet than go back
Speaker 1: on a dating app because it's.
Speaker 3: Too much work.
Speaker 2: It's like a hard time job.
Speaker 1: I know, so dramatic, but my point being is that
Speaker 1: it's hard to take anything from that because gen Z
Speaker 1: is still so young. What is gen Z like in
Speaker 1: the late twenties at best? Of course, you don't have
Speaker 1: to be on a dating app because it's not like
Speaker 1: you're thirty five and being like, Okay, I really want
Speaker 1: to meet someone. So's I'm on the.
Speaker 2: Twenty eight so I think.
Speaker 3: They are eleven, so they'd be twenty six. It's the oldest.
Speaker 3: The oldest gen Z is twenty six.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But also they're like they're so cool. I don't
Speaker 2: want to put that in quotations, because they actually are cool.
Speaker 2: They're very cool, and they just don't care about anything
Speaker 2: and anything that is was like cool for us. They
Speaker 2: are anti so if we love dating apps, they're gonna
Speaker 2: hate them. They're like the antithesis of us.
Speaker 3: Well, it's like you ever see the movie twenty one
Speaker 3: Jump Street Yeah, with uh Channing Yeah and Jonah Hill
Speaker 3: hilarious movie, And then did you ever see twenty two
Speaker 3: Jump Street, Yeah, which is even Wait no, I think
Speaker 3: twenty one Jump Street is the movie where they go
Speaker 3: back to school, right, and then it's flip.
Speaker 2: Flops, like two is de Franco, right, yeah?
Speaker 4: Right, so twenty two right, they go back and then
Speaker 4: it flip flops like Jonah is the cool kid because
Speaker 4: he exactly exactly establishment.
Speaker 2: Right, right, So that's no, he's not anti establishment, he's
Speaker 2: not cool, which makes him cool.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, but exactly. But then he like rents in
Speaker 4: the track me and they're like, oh, I love how
Speaker 4: you messed up that track me.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't remember that.
Speaker 3: Like they made a point.
Speaker 1: It's really good that in the nineties when they were
Speaker 1: growing up, it was the high school jo was the
Speaker 1: cool kid.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 1: There's even a scene in that movie that I remember
Speaker 1: when they first go back to school. Channing Tatum has
Speaker 1: his backpack on, he has one strap on his shoulder,
Speaker 1: and Jonah has both strap over his shoulders, and Channing's like,
Speaker 1: bro get rid of the one strap.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, it's not cool.
Speaker 1: You can't do that anymore. And he's like, but everybody
Speaker 1: else has two straps.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. No, no, it's not cool. It's not cool.
Speaker 1: And then the coolest kid played by Dave Franco comes
Speaker 1: up to Jonah and he's also wearing the two straps
Speaker 1: because they so that in the nineties the cool kids
Speaker 1: wore one strap, but now the cool kids are the
Speaker 1: smartpet ones who wear both straps. They just are also
Speaker 1: drug dealers in that movie, right.
Speaker 3: It's a dream boat.
Speaker 4: And then he pulls up in his muscle car and
Speaker 4: he's like, how many miles pre on you getting that thing?
Speaker 3: Like five? And he's like, try four. What about you?
Speaker 4: He goes, oh, this runs off of the recycled grease
Speaker 4: from the Chinese restaurant down the street. It's like, okay,
Speaker 4: a man, all right, let's talk about Bachelor.
Speaker 2: Great movie, let's talk about Bachelor. We are all Jared,
Speaker 2: are you flying out today or tomorrow?
Speaker 3: Flying out tonight?
Speaker 1: No? Well it's not right eye because seven thirty LA
Speaker 1: is three hours for yer.
Speaker 3: So we land at eleven.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 1: We did that because we're hoping Dawson sleeps.
Speaker 3: On the flight.
Speaker 2: You're bringing Dawson hours.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we're bringing Dawson.
Speaker 2: Oh great, and he's coming to the mansion.
Speaker 3: The mansion, I believe.
Speaker 1: So, so you guys are going to meet Dawson.
Speaker 2: Well, I've met him at iHeart Studios. Remember we were
Speaker 2: recording the podcast and actually brought him up. Yeah, we both,
Speaker 2: we all were there. The relaunch of the podcast.
Speaker 1: Was that like a year and a half ago.
Speaker 2: February I joined, so almost a year.
Speaker 3: I'm excited for him to call me Unky.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see him.
Speaker 4: He's gonna look at me and he goes, go uncle Deany,
Speaker 4: Uncle Dean. Well we'll practice on the plane.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean he's he's awesome right now. Yeah, he's in.
Speaker 3: He's just the best.
Speaker 1: He's he's prime Dawson.
Speaker 2: And you've flown with him quite a bit to Virginia. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We usually do like hour flights. It's the cross country
Speaker 1: ones that just suck because an hour you can get
Speaker 1: through because even if it's bad, it's only bad for
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes. So you just got to like figure
Speaker 1: it out. Six hours that's why we went late, because
Speaker 1: it's like, please sleep, because he just gets restless. It's
Speaker 1: like moving left and right and he's kicking the seat
Speaker 1: and he just wants to get up and he's like
Speaker 1: flaring his body and then he gets tired of the
Speaker 1: phone because he just wants he wants to run around.
Speaker 2: I have a question for you. Have you seen those
Speaker 2: tiktoks where like a girl or a guy someone a
Speaker 2: baby's crying and someone will pick up the baby next
Speaker 2: to them on the plane and like walk them around.
Speaker 2: What if a stranger took Dawson? How would you feel?
Speaker 3: No, strangers aren't picking up children and walking them around the airplane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen this happen all over TikTok.
Speaker 3: I would be so mad.
Speaker 2: Well, if the baby's screaming, the mom is stressed, is stressed.
Speaker 3: I would like if I was on an airplane.
Speaker 2: And you looked over at me and you're like, can
Speaker 2: I help you?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah yeah, if they asked, of.
Speaker 2: Course, they're not just gonna snatch the baby.
Speaker 3: Well you didn't. You didn't clarify.
Speaker 2: I thought that was implied because I would do that.
Speaker 3: I would walk a baby around on an airplane if
Speaker 3: the mother snatching the baby.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, just being like, hey, can I help
Speaker 2: you out, and like walking the baby up and down
Speaker 2: the aisles. Would you be cool with that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're not going I would be staring
Speaker 1: at them, but also at the same time, I'd be
Speaker 1: able to sit down and breathe for a second, So
Speaker 1: that's really nice.
Speaker 4: I don't think I wouldn't even if I was a parent.
Speaker 4: I don't think I would because baby his head off,
Speaker 4: because it's kind of my job to make the baby
Speaker 4: stop screaming. That's some random stranger.
Speaker 2: Stranger picks up Hunter and he's like new face, and
Speaker 2: then he's intrigued and stops crying for a second.
Speaker 1: Bro, wait till Hunter is alive, screaming hours on end,
Speaker 1: and you're just like, I love you so much. Please
Speaker 1: someone take him away from me. Someone take him away
Speaker 1: from me, because it's just natural. Bro, Like, I mean,
Speaker 1: as much as you're gonna love your kid, they're tough,
Speaker 1: they're going they don't like they're they torture your life,
Speaker 1: not intentionally, but because they're a baby, they don't know
Speaker 1: what the hell's going on.
Speaker 3: They're gonna scream or they're gonna hit you.
Speaker 1: Or they're gonna bite you and they're gonna laugh, and
Speaker 1: then they're gonna ooop in your hand and you're just
Speaker 1: gonna be like I need like I just need a minute, guys,
Speaker 1: I need a minute. You know, it's just natural alse
Speaker 1: you're going to lose your goddamn mind.
Speaker 2: When does the crying and screaming phase pass? Is that four?
Speaker 1: I mean he's I don't know, I mean he's he
Speaker 1: throws tantrums now sometimes really depends, like he'll throw himself
Speaker 1: on the floor now and just scream and you're like oh,
Speaker 1: and then of course he hits his head on the
Speaker 1: floor like he'll he'll not hard, but like when he goes,
Speaker 1: he'll like knock his head and then he'll scream more
Speaker 1: and it's like, broh, just relax. I don't know when
Speaker 1: the screen face stops. But you know what my pet
Speaker 1: peeve is and we talked about on the podcast before,
Speaker 1: especially on plane traveling with the kid, it's the people
Speaker 1: that get pissed off when Dawson's crying and they, like
Speaker 1: you can tell they keep like looking back and like
Speaker 1: roll their eyes or like I remember one time we
Speaker 1: had Dawson and he was like flaring his body a
Speaker 1: little bit because he wanted to get up. And this
Speaker 1: was like forty five minutes into the flight, and he
Speaker 1: kept kicking the chair in front of us, and we
Speaker 1: were trying to stop him, but he's like wrestling out
Speaker 1: of our arms. And it happened like three or four times,
Speaker 1: and the person in front of us is like whipped
Speaker 1: his head back and just kind of looked at us,
Speaker 1: and it's like, bro, turn your head around. Don't look
Speaker 1: at me. Like it's so annoyance because you, oh, sometimes
Speaker 1: I look around.
Speaker 3: That's you.
Speaker 2: I would never like you're like.
Speaker 3: That child is being so loud on the airplane.
Speaker 2: Five year old kicking my chair. Yeah, I'm going to
Speaker 2: be pissed.
Speaker 1: That's different when we have a baby in our lap
Speaker 1: who's very clearly uncomfortable, trying to get out of our arms.
Speaker 3: We're just trying to relax him. Are they so?
Speaker 1: Like? I remember people talking about how like, oh, we
Speaker 1: should be we should be aware if we're sitting next
Speaker 1: to a baby on the flight, and it's like, everyone
Speaker 1: chill out. This is why if you don't bring headphones
Speaker 1: on the plane, it's nobody's fault but your own. If
Speaker 1: you're listening to my crying kid get headphones. Like, guess
Speaker 1: what you get to do when you leave the plane.
Speaker 1: Guess what you get to do. You get to walk
Speaker 1: off and you get to go to the bathroom. You don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about anything. You go find your car,
Speaker 1: You get to breathe, you get to you could stop
Speaker 1: and you could look at magazines for a minute if
Speaker 1: you want to your stand.
Speaker 2: Stand up in the plane and be like, I don't
Speaker 2: want him to be trying. You think I want this,
Speaker 2: which reminds me of I know we were on a trip.
Speaker 1: It goes to my head.
Speaker 2: Semi recently with a friend and someone asked for a
Speaker 2: photo and this friend he kept getting bombarded with photos
Speaker 2: and he's like blocking the view of the show we
Speaker 2: were watching. It was so funny. And this woman was
Speaker 2: like again, like the fifth person came up to ask
Speaker 2: for a photo, get out of my way, please, She's like,
Speaker 2: are you serious? And he was so sassy. He was like,
Speaker 2: you think I want this?
Speaker 4: You think I want to be here taking these pictures
Speaker 4: with these people, And like He's.
Speaker 2: Like in the nicest way, in the nicest to which
Speaker 2: I could see you just standing up there and being
Speaker 2: like you think you want this. Do you think I
Speaker 2: want this?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's you know what it is.
Speaker 3: It's just people.
Speaker 1: And oh he's talked.
Speaker 2: About it on the podcast.
Speaker 1: I will keep okay, okay, okay, and let the mysterious
Speaker 1: the mystery live on. I it's annoying because people. What
Speaker 1: I find is that people just are human beings and
Speaker 1: they're looking for things to complain about. I don't know,
Speaker 1: I just from working in hospitality where I've worked with
Speaker 1: many people, I've waited on many people, and being a
Speaker 1: part of the Bachelor and being able to talk to
Speaker 1: many people. Just people say things, and people do things
Speaker 1: that they don't even necessarily believe, but they just say
Speaker 1: and do them because for some reason, like in their reaction,
Speaker 1: they just they say things and there's no rhyme or reason.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're just negative.
Speaker 1: But also like it's just like it's it's amazing how
Speaker 1: people just say things. I know that sounds so vague,
Speaker 1: but I wish I could explain it better, But they
Speaker 1: just do and say things that they don't even like
Speaker 1: necessarily mean. But still it's just like I don't get it.
Speaker 3: But I guess being a human.
Speaker 4: It's like the equivalent to being a child that's screaming.
Speaker 4: Loud humans as adults just blurt out the first thing
Speaker 4: that they think. I guess, or they just serve so reactionary.
Speaker 4: But I was going to say too about back to
Speaker 4: the plane, thing about the loud children. What really makes
Speaker 4: me angry in those situations is when the parent is
Speaker 4: not doing anything to help ease the situation for the child,
Speaker 4: Like if they like if if Dawson's kicking in the
Speaker 4: back of the seat in front of him, and I
Speaker 4: look back and the parents are just like sitting there,
Speaker 4: zoning off into their own world. I'm like, hey, parent,
Speaker 4: this is your job to like mend at the situation
Speaker 4: with your child, like calm him.
Speaker 2: Down, like she's like scrolling on their phone.
Speaker 4: Here's something, because your child is making everyone else's your
Speaker 4: experience here worse. And if I look back at you
Speaker 4: and you're not trying to fix the situation, I'm going
Speaker 4: to be mad at the parent.
Speaker 2: And if there's a parent like stressed and doing everything
Speaker 2: they can, like totally understand babies are uncontrollable. So that's
Speaker 2: right word. Uh So, yeah, I agree, I agree with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's my that's my peeve with that.
Speaker 2: But I was going to say, I'm really excited to
Speaker 2: see Dawson in The Bachelor. Yeah, in the Bachelor mansion
Speaker 2: where you guys didn't meet there, but it's the beginning
Speaker 2: of your love story in a direct.
Speaker 4: Better bring a tuxedo for him to wear on the
Speaker 4: front steps of the mansion.
Speaker 2: Hold a little rose. We've thought about this.
Speaker 3: You've better, you better do it.
Speaker 1: We'll just like we'll like pour water on the steps,
Speaker 1: so glistening night one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should act as the producer, the behind the
Speaker 2: scene producer who's watering down the driveway and then you're like,
Speaker 2: he's pulling up, he's pulling up. You could do a
Speaker 2: whole skit about it.
Speaker 1: There's somebody else coming. Maybe I forget who it is,
Speaker 1: but I think that has a girl in the franchise,
Speaker 1: like a child, because we were joking about how we
Speaker 1: need to film like them in front of the mansion
Speaker 1: together as if like baby Bachelor. Yeah, the baby Bachelor.
Speaker 1: So I don't know who could be coming with the girl,
Speaker 1: but we definitely thought about that. Oh yeah, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get so much content of Dawson in the mansion. But
Speaker 1: the thing is the mansion is definitely not as so
Speaker 1: much content. It could be great. The mansion is not
Speaker 1: as personal to us as Paradise is. Like I've been
Speaker 1: to the mansion since night one, and it's cool being
Speaker 1: back there, but I don't feel as nostalgic towards it
Speaker 1: as when we go to Paradise and I'm like, holy
Speaker 1: sh like this is bringing.
Speaker 2: The mansion also looks different, right because the decoration team,
Speaker 2: what do they called the that team comes and like
Speaker 2: makes it completely different.
Speaker 1: The art department, art department. Yeah, yeah, I mean right,
Speaker 1: it's still like it does look different, I mean from
Speaker 1: when we were there.
Speaker 3: I don't know what's gonna look like tomorrow night.
Speaker 1: I mean this was years ago when we were there,
Speaker 1: probably like three years ago, I guess now. But there's
Speaker 1: like in the Rose ceremony room, you know, it's pool
Speaker 1: tables and tons of tables and chairs, so it doesn't
Speaker 1: look the same, but it's still cool, like because the
Speaker 1: structure of the house is the exact same, you know, everything,
Speaker 1: So it's still cool being back there, Like oh, this
Speaker 1: is like this is the room we slept in, Like
Speaker 1: my bunk bed was over there, and and then this
Speaker 1: is the pool in the hot tub, and you know
Speaker 1: we used to hang out over here, and it's it's definitely,
Speaker 1: it's really cool.
Speaker 3: Kaitlin's excited.
Speaker 2: I am excited. I haven't been back since since we
Speaker 2: lived in the mansion.
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
Speaker 2: Have you been back?
Speaker 4: Of course not, I'm I'm not excited. I would rather
Speaker 4: not go if I didn't have to.
Speaker 2: But why are you so negative?
Speaker 3: I just I don't. I don't care about it.
Speaker 2: Oh, I think it'll be cool with all our friends there.
Speaker 3: It'll be fun to see our friends. But like we
Speaker 3: could just go out to a restaurant or a bar
Speaker 3: or something. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just think it's such a guy thing, to be honest,
Speaker 1: I think it's such a guy thing because I'm in
Speaker 1: the exact same boat. Like I'm excited to go back,
Speaker 1: Like it's cool being at the mansion, but if given
Speaker 1: the choice, I'm staying home. Like I love you guys all.
Speaker 1: It's just like that's so I don't feel like I'm
Speaker 1: at too. I don't want to, But the same time,
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to rain on
Speaker 1: the parade of everyone's excitement, you know. But I think
Speaker 1: it'll be fine, and once we're there, Once we're there,
Speaker 1: I think we'll have a lot of fun. It's like
Speaker 1: getting me there and then like, oh, okay, this is
Speaker 1: actually fun. Yeah, but the thought of going, I'm like,
Speaker 1: can I just I just.
Speaker 3: I just want to chill. I don't want to go. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And for the listeners who aren't aware, we are all
Speaker 2: flying to La tomorrow, heading to the Bachelor mansion having
Speaker 2: dinner there. I think that's our only plan, right, just
Speaker 2: have dinner.
Speaker 3: We're having dinner at the mansion.
Speaker 1: I have no idea.
Speaker 2: I don't think anyone knows what we're doing. I heard dinner,
Speaker 2: and that's all that I know.
Speaker 1: I know Ashley's recording the podcast.
Speaker 2: There, Okay, I figured there would be some podcasts recording.
Speaker 4: I want Kayla and I to pull up to the bachi.
Speaker 4: I want to Kayla and I to pull up to
Speaker 4: the front doors on the of the mansion with my motorcycle.
Speaker 4: But she said, I am you scared to ride in
Speaker 4: the back back?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Do you know how wy do those roads are getting
Speaker 2: up to Yeah, getting up to the mansion.
Speaker 1: You could just you guys could no, no, no. What
Speaker 1: you do is you drive to the mansion and then
Speaker 1: you know how like there's the gate before.
Speaker 2: You go I'll do that driveway for sure.
Speaker 1: You just hop on the back of his bike and
Speaker 1: make it look like you're riding up.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: Or you could just do a whole skit guys, Kaitlin,
Speaker 1: where you're the bachelorette and Dean's whole gimmick is that
Speaker 1: he pulls up in the motorcycle looking all cool and stuff,
Speaker 1: trying to win your heart, and then it.
Speaker 2: Just whisks me away on his motorcycle.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you'd be too Scaredy you rode on the
Speaker 4: back of a motorcycle for ten hours when we did
Speaker 4: rode to Hannah.
Speaker 2: Shall we recap why I don't get on motorcycles anymore.
Speaker 4: We were in one accident and we both walked away unscathed.
Speaker 4: If anything, that is still some confidence, that is. And
Speaker 4: also that was because someone else was at fault and
Speaker 4: there aren't gonna be many cars driving up.
Speaker 2: That can such a scary drive, even in a car.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're driving, but not if I'm driving.
Speaker 2: If anyone's driving, can get on my.
Speaker 4: Freaking back and thank you can bring it two helmets,
Speaker 4: so you're gonna you're gonna wear it and you're gonna.
Speaker 2: Get go from the gate. It's the long driveway.
Speaker 3: You used to be so brave. What happens?
Speaker 2: I got into a motorcycle accident.
Speaker 3: It was one accident, and we both were fine.
Speaker 2: And your handle up was crushed into your hand.
Speaker 3: You're so dramatic. My hand was fine.
Speaker 2: Thankfully, I had a what are those things at? Deep boy?
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, helmet. No, when you get into bag,
Speaker 2: thank you in air bag. Thankfully, I had an airbag,
Speaker 2: which is your backag motorcycle.
Speaker 4: My body observed the blow and she just fell into
Speaker 4: me and she was totally fine, and so was I.
Speaker 1: But what happened.
Speaker 4: I was a guy was turning left illegally through a
Speaker 4: double yellow and I was in the right lane and
Speaker 4: he or no, it was like so either like he
Speaker 4: was in my lane and doing an illegal you turn
Speaker 4: or turning left illegally either way illegal turn. Never saw me,
Speaker 4: never saw us on the motorcycle, I guess. And it
Speaker 4: was a fifty year old motorcycle. Gosh, I love that motorcycle,
Speaker 4: and the brakes just had never been serviced and so
Speaker 4: the stopping power wasn't very good, and so he turned
Speaker 4: and I like, I for five seconds, I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: we're hitting him, We're hitting him. We're hitting him, and
Speaker 4: I'm just slaming the brakes the whole time. But the
Speaker 4: breaks were so bad. I was like, we're hitting him more,
Speaker 4: hitting him. I'm sy And so we were only going
Speaker 4: like fifteen or twenty five miles.
Speaker 2: But it was in Brentwood and there's like those crazy
Speaker 2: curved roads in Brentwood, so we were coming around a
Speaker 2: big bend and we remember it's so crazy. Obviously you
Speaker 2: were in the front, so you remember it better than me,
Speaker 2: but we remember it so differently. I remember him pulling
Speaker 2: out in like I guess making a U turn of sorts,
Speaker 2: but like backing out of a driveway and like doing
Speaker 2: something crazy right by this turn, so like nobody could
Speaker 2: see him coming, and he was, you know, illegally blocking
Speaker 2: this drive.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it was just a fifty year old motorcycle
Speaker 4: with bad breaks. This is now a twenty twenty one
Speaker 4: with fancy new breaks. I even got a nice little
Speaker 4: seat on the back for you, a little backbar to
Speaker 4: lean back on.
Speaker 2: Dane put in a seat for me one time. Was
Speaker 2: it this motorcycle And I am walking out through the
Speaker 2: neighborhood and I just see the seat bar lying in
Speaker 2: the road, I'm.
Speaker 4: Like, oh, oh no, that was a I ordered a
Speaker 4: little suction cup seat before I saved the permanent seat,
Speaker 4: and then the suction cup just fell off.
Speaker 3: I even took off the exhaust. You know how hard
Speaker 3: it is to take off an exhaust.
Speaker 4: I took off the exhaust and added footpegs for you
Speaker 4: and a big sissy bar for you to just leak.
Speaker 4: You can literally sit on the bike and lean back like.
Speaker 3: You can lean back like that. We can't hear you,
Speaker 3: I know, but that's just doing it to prove my point.
Speaker 3: And and I put footpegs on there for you and
Speaker 3: to see and a little lean back sessions.
Speaker 2: I'll think about it. But honestly, that was traumatizing for me,
Speaker 2: and you need to recognize that that was traumatizing.
Speaker 3: Okay, but if I'm the source of that trauma, like,
Speaker 3: let me fix it, and you're not letting me fix.
Speaker 2: It, I don't think that's how it works.
Speaker 3: Yes, stop being traumatic.
Speaker 1: Just don't do it, Kal, I mean, this is how
Speaker 1: this works.
Speaker 3: Don't do it. Don't do what.
Speaker 2: Get on the motorcycle.
Speaker 3: Go on the motorcycle. No, Jared, you're a swissy. On
Speaker 3: my side here, I have.
Speaker 2: A photo of the two of you. You Jared on
Speaker 2: the back of his dirt bike going when we first
Speaker 2: started dating in Tahoe. Yeah, did you ride it or
Speaker 2: did you just take a photo?
Speaker 3: I think it was just.
Speaker 1: He definitely didn't ride it.
Speaker 3: I don't remember.
Speaker 1: I don't remember riding a dirt bike.
Speaker 4: It was like it was also an older dirtbike, and
Speaker 4: it was at elevation, so it was having a hard.
Speaker 3: Time to start.
Speaker 2: Wells, I think you peeled off with Wells and you
Speaker 2: and else drove back together.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Probably well is brave, and also Wells rides motorcycle, so
Speaker 4: he understands how safe they actually are.
Speaker 3: It's not that I actually want to learn how to
Speaker 3: ride a motorcycle. I can teach you.
Speaker 1: I would never want to go on the back of
Speaker 1: somebody else's motorcycle.
Speaker 3: I'll teach you at the mansion.
Speaker 4: I know, I hate being on the I rode on
Speaker 4: the back of my brother's motorcycle and I was like twelve,
Speaker 4: and he'd rode like a bat out of hell. It's
Speaker 4: scared the crap out of me. And I was like,
Speaker 4: I'll never sit on the back of the motorcycle again.
Speaker 4: And then you travel to like the Southeast Asian countries
Speaker 4: and like that's how they get around. Is like if
Speaker 4: you order a taxi, a guy pulls up on a motorcycle,
Speaker 4: you have to jump on the back. And then it's
Speaker 4: a stranger. You're like, do I wrap my arms around him?
Speaker 4: What do I do? And you have all this like
Speaker 4: how close are we going to get here? And I
Speaker 4: hate it because you're so you have I have a
Speaker 4: control freak. You have no control, and you're just like
Speaker 4: at the mercy of this guy that's driving that you've
Speaker 4: ever met before and he's driving like a maniac, because
Speaker 4: that's just how everyone drives out there. So yeah, I
Speaker 4: personally would never get on the back, but Kaylin, like
Speaker 4: that's where you belong, not that you belong on the.
Speaker 3: Back, but like you you're perfectly back there.
Speaker 2: I'll feel safer in Colorado because people drive less dangerous.
Speaker 2: People drive so safely in Colorado. They're just like slow drivers.
Speaker 3: That's not entirely true though.
Speaker 2: Okay, then I won't get on your motorcycle.
Speaker 4: That's just you have this notion in your mind where
Speaker 4: everyone in La drives like an idiot and everyone in
Speaker 4: Colorado drives like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like a saint.
Speaker 2: Yes, and in Vegas. Vegas is so scary. La is
Speaker 2: so scary, so I'll feel better In Colorado.
Speaker 4: Vegas is scary because it's like you could be driving
Speaker 4: at six pm and there might be a drunk driver,
Speaker 4: like driving barely down the street or something.
Speaker 2: Sir, everyone here is drunk.
Speaker 4: That's what I'm always worried about. So anyways, Yeah, back
Speaker 4: to the mansion.
Speaker 2: Back to the mansion.
Speaker 1: Well, I want to talk about a different mansion. Uh,
Speaker 1: what's going on with the house in Colorado? The last
Speaker 1: time they're talking to you guys on the podcast, was
Speaker 1: you were actually getting a phone call from your realtor.
Speaker 2: Yes, we got the counter offer. It was they took
Speaker 2: a tiny, tiny bit off of the asking price, which
Speaker 2: we accepted.
Speaker 3: We should have played harder ball.
Speaker 2: Harder ball, we didn't. We love it and we close
Speaker 2: in a couple of weeks. Yeah, so we're under contract.
Speaker 5: Well, congratulations, you guys are new homeowners. Hopefully we're waiting
Speaker 5: till we close. We've been under contract now three times.
Speaker 5: Granted we haven't seen the previous two homes and we've
Speaker 5: seen this one. We're pretty much there in terms of
Speaker 5: like closing, So I can't wait. I'm not allowing myself
Speaker 5: to get excited until the date we have actually closed,
Speaker 5: you know.
Speaker 1: And I also feel like homes homes are like kids
Speaker 1: because this is your second that you guys were owning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's like not.
Speaker 1: As cool as the first one now in terms of like, hey,
Speaker 1: my god, congratulations, you guys bought a house, you know,
Speaker 1: like with Dawson, everybody's like, oh, oh my god, you're
Speaker 1: having a kid. That's so exciting. Holy crap, your life
Speaker 1: can change, blah blah blah. And then you know, hopefully
Speaker 1: when we have a second people are like, oh, that's great,
Speaker 1: like congrats, what else is new? And then the third
Speaker 1: you guys, Oh my god, you guys have a new house.
Speaker 1: That's awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's more so the move. And I was thinking
Speaker 2: about this yesterday. We've had like four people visit us
Speaker 2: in Vegas. Not very many people come, but I think
Speaker 2: a lot more people are going to come visit us
Speaker 2: in Aspen.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't count on it.
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 2: I think I think a lot more people people like
Speaker 2: Vegas is fun, whatever, but we live in the suburbs
Speaker 2: of Vegas. If people want to come to Vegas, they're
Speaker 2: not going to stay here. And I feel like people
Speaker 2: love our friends, love DISKI especially.
Speaker 3: But I just say I wouldn't bank on getting excited
Speaker 3: about people coming to visit, because then if people don't
Speaker 3: come to visit, then you're sad.
Speaker 2: Oh if they don't come, it's fine. I love being alone.
Speaker 2: But I think more people are going to come visit us.
Speaker 3: I'm not excited as much. I'm not as excited as
Speaker 3: Kalen for many reasons.
Speaker 2: Of the house.
Speaker 3: Yeah, ah, be excited.
Speaker 4: We're like out of this house, and like moving is
Speaker 4: just so sucky.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's moving to a different state. Yeah, moving to
Speaker 4: a different state, like a thousand miles away. We have
Speaker 4: to pack up all our junk. And you've got a
Speaker 4: lot of junk, honey.
Speaker 2: I've been already started packing.
Speaker 4: Well, good, because you got a lot of junk, honey.
Speaker 4: It's just it's going to be such a pain in
Speaker 4: the butt. And then like you're not once you get there,
Speaker 4: you're still not done because then you have to unpack,
Speaker 4: and then you're still not done because then you have
Speaker 4: to organize, and you're still not done because then you
Speaker 4: have to buy more sites.
Speaker 2: All sound like great things to me. I don't see
Speaker 2: a problem in it. Yeah, it's just it's just be positive.
Speaker 1: Ski.
Speaker 2: The day that we move and Kaylin.
Speaker 3: I was gonna I was gonna be critical in a way,
Speaker 3: but I can't remember what it was.
Speaker 2: Of course you're so negative.
Speaker 4: Come on, sorry, there is critical and negative the same thing.
Speaker 4: No oh, I remember.
Speaker 3: Now. We were looking houses and it.
Speaker 4: Was like we would found a house that was like
Speaker 4: three hundred thousand dollars cheaper. I'd be like, ooh, this
Speaker 4: looks awesome and we can like redo things in it.
Speaker 4: And she's like, no, do you have an idea? How
Speaker 4: much is gon cost to redo the kitchen? It's going
Speaker 4: to be five hundred thousand dollars And I'd be like,
Speaker 4: it's not going to cost that much, and then we
Speaker 4: end up buying a house that's that much more expensive.
Speaker 3: Anyways, it's just stressful.
Speaker 2: Tell us more negative things.
Speaker 4: Am I being negative? I'm just being critical. I'm being
Speaker 4: real real because I'm stressed. It's it's it's a big
Speaker 4: it's a lot, it's a big move. What are you
Speaker 4: stressed about?
Speaker 3: The big move?
Speaker 4: Just the move or the moving. The price is a
Speaker 4: lot of money. It's the more money than I've ever
Speaker 4: seen in my entire life.
Speaker 3: And just the move. I think the move is the
Speaker 3: big part of it. Like, what are we going to do?
Speaker 4: Hire movers to drive our stuff out to Colorado for us,
Speaker 4: because there's no way we can fit all this in
Speaker 4: any of our car.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course we're gonna hire movers.
Speaker 3: It's expensive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well you wanted this.
Speaker 3: I don't you say that, but you wanted it.
Speaker 2: We both want it. Yeah, you want it more than.
Speaker 3: We that's not necessarily true. I'd say it's fifty to fifty.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm excited about the house. I don't care if
Speaker 2: you're that's good.
Speaker 3: That means that your excitement can temper my non excitement.
Speaker 4: Now that I'm not excited, I just I just know
Speaker 4: that there's a lot of steps to get there. And
Speaker 4: that's what I think about when we're talking about moving,
Speaker 4: all the steps.
Speaker 1: I don't think it as many steps as you think
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 4: I just I hate packing and I hate unpacking. I
Speaker 4: just hate it so much. And if we ever, I
Speaker 4: don't think we're I don't think I ever want to
Speaker 4: move again. After we live in Colorado.
Speaker 2: We probably won't.
Speaker 1: I think you could also hire the movers to like
Speaker 1: disassemble furniture and assemble it.
Speaker 4: While I can do all those things, I feel weird
Speaker 4: paying someone to do them for me, you know, like
Speaker 4: if I.
Speaker 3: Can do something I don't want to. I mean, that's
Speaker 3: the service you're paying for. Yeah, I don't know, So
Speaker 3: don't feel guilty. That's their job.
Speaker 1: They want to make more money unless you could tip them.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 4: I just I feel weird paying someone to do something
Speaker 4: that I can do. And I also think that like
Speaker 4: people don't they are not as careful with belongings as
Speaker 4: they are with their own possessions.
Speaker 1: And so it's like, well, if you get insurance, they
Speaker 1: will be because if they if you get insurance on it,
Speaker 1: you can get insurance on things on movers.
Speaker 3: That's what we did.
Speaker 1: And so if anything breaks, they you know, they come.
Speaker 1: They like inspect all the furniture to make sure, like, oh,
Speaker 1: there's a ding here, so that's not us, it's gone.
Speaker 1: The same thing when trading in a car, and then uh,
Speaker 1: you know, then if you get back and you're like, hey,
Speaker 1: this bedpost is broken, they're.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, well you got any good You got any
Speaker 3: good recommendations for moving companies for us?
Speaker 5: Ye?
Speaker 2: Do?
Speaker 1: I can talk to you all of it. I can
Speaker 1: talk to you off air about it if you want.
Speaker 3: Well, just drop a name real quick. Maybe we'll get
Speaker 3: a new sponsor.
Speaker 1: Mayflower, Mayflower, Mayflower is the way to go.
Speaker 3: It's a good that's a good classic American.
Speaker 2: My friend moved from LA across the country and she
Speaker 2: has a lot of vehicles. So they loaded up her vehicles,
Speaker 2: went to drive across country. Got a mile down the road,
Speaker 2: a rock hit their Tesla windshield shattered it a mile,
Speaker 2: a mile into cross insurance. Yeah, it was fixed, but
Speaker 2: could you imagine I'd be mile in.
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. That's why my excitement is tempered
Speaker 4: because of things like that.
Speaker 3: Rocks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like there's covered covered trailers that you
Speaker 2: could get.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, probably, Like what am I gonna do with
Speaker 4: my motorcycle?
Speaker 3: I have to drive it, ship it. I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: ship it. That sounds so you can just throw them, bro.
Speaker 1: It's the same when I shipped my car from Rhode
Speaker 1: Island to l A. I think it costs me like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, like thirteen dollars something like that, something
Speaker 1: right around there. Dude, think of how much you're going
Speaker 1: to pay in gas you're not saving that much money
Speaker 1: if you drive it.
Speaker 2: True.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess, I guess. It's just those are the
Speaker 4: things that are stressing you.
Speaker 2: Can you say something positive?
Speaker 3: Mm? Bananas? I like bananas, like the way they taste.
Speaker 1: That house is going to be awesome. You're gonna love
Speaker 1: living in it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm excited to ski. We'll see how that
Speaker 3: all goes. I got an MRI on my what's your timeline? Oh,
Speaker 3: to move?
Speaker 1: Yeah, like when are you guys planning on getting out
Speaker 1: of there?
Speaker 4: That's another thing too, well, so we'd probably be there
Speaker 4: early January. But then we have to like rent this
Speaker 4: house out. That's a big undertaking.
Speaker 2: It's not as big as you think, but yeah.
Speaker 5: Would be.
Speaker 3: It's big. And then we have to be landlords.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I mean I hate, I hate, hate,
Speaker 4: hate landlords and.
Speaker 2: Now I have to be a good one.
Speaker 3: Now I have to be one of them.
Speaker 1: Well, now you hate yourself, bro.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right. It should be a happy about it work.
Speaker 2: But our timeline we close in a few weeks, and
Speaker 2: they keep asking if we're going to be there for closing.
Speaker 2: We thought we'd be in Tanzania, but we will actually
Speaker 2: be home so I don't know if like maybe we
Speaker 2: drive out there unpack some stuff during closing, or we
Speaker 2: do everything remotely. But then we have Christmas with his
Speaker 2: brother in Bozeman, so it'll probably be January.
Speaker 4: Wait, yeah, that's a good point. I just saw his
Speaker 4: email this morning about being out there for closing. But
Speaker 4: we're going to be and we're gonna try and go
Speaker 4: to Boseman. So are we gonna be able to do that?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I was gonna talk to you off air. So
Speaker 2: there's a lot to discuss.
Speaker 3: It's just so much traveling.
Speaker 4: Where's Bozeman, That's Colorado, Montana. It's like it's on Tana.
Speaker 4: It's like a twelve hour drive from Colorado from Basalt
Speaker 4: at least.
Speaker 3: But what are you doing for Christmas.
Speaker 1: In Rhode Island.
Speaker 3: I don't think Ashley's too happy about it.
Speaker 1: Oh well, what are you gonna do? The problem is
Speaker 1: is that her dad is working at the hospital the
Speaker 1: day after Christmas, so he can't go to Rhode Island
Speaker 1: for Christmas. Oh she too, I know, but my sister
Speaker 1: and her brother in law.
Speaker 3: I have to talk more to him. They're moving.
Speaker 1: He's in the Coast Guard and he just got he
Speaker 1: got a promotion, but he's getting assigned to a different location.
Speaker 1: So they're moving to New York, in upstate New York.
Speaker 1: So it's like six hours away. So and that's supposed
Speaker 1: to be happening in June's So this is like their
Speaker 1: last Christmas in Rhode Island for a little while. So
Speaker 1: I don't know what we're gonna do. I don't know
Speaker 1: we're gonna figure it out. We're going to figure it out, Ashley,
Speaker 1: but plan is to stay in Rhode Island.
Speaker 2: Honestly, there's nothing better than being home for Christmas. Like,
Speaker 2: I'm so excited to go to Bozeman, but just waking up,
Speaker 2: going downstairs in your own living room is so nice.
Speaker 2: Not having to travel go to Virginia. No, I'm saying, like,
Speaker 2: when we have Christmas here and we're just like already here,
Speaker 2: it's nice to not travel.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then it feels less like Christmas. Oh, but
Speaker 4: I guess if people are here with us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pros and cons to both.
Speaker 1: So having Dawson, I'm very excited for when he probably
Speaker 1: next year. I'm excited for this year because it'll be
Speaker 1: fun seeing him open the toys and seeing all the
Speaker 1: presents and the colors, and he's gonna be like ooh,
Speaker 1: but when he is able to communicate more and have
Speaker 1: a better understanding of bro, there is a fat guy
Speaker 1: who comes down the chimney and he's gonna bring you
Speaker 1: so many toys. So you're gonna wake up Christmas morning
Speaker 1: and there's gonna be all these toys that weren't there
Speaker 1: the night before. And I'm so excited for that, and
Speaker 1: so I want to be home for those moments. So
Speaker 1: this year, I'm a little bit more flexible because I like,
Speaker 1: I want to be home when he is fully aware
Speaker 1: of what's going on, and I feel like that starts
Speaker 1: next year. This year, it's more of like, you know,
Speaker 1: he's just colors and ripping things open and running around when.
Speaker 2: He opens gifts, is he like excited and he's aware
Speaker 2: that this is a present?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he knows.
Speaker 1: I think it's he's just he's just opening things and
Speaker 1: he knows that things are in there that he can
Speaker 1: I think everything is a toy to him as of
Speaker 1: right now. So I guess he's a little he doesn't
Speaker 1: know the idea of gifting or presence, but he knows
Speaker 1: the idea of toys. But The problem is I think
Speaker 1: he thinks everything is a toy because he'll grab things
Speaker 1: and start throwing them and it's like, no, that's not.
Speaker 2: A toy, buddy.
Speaker 1: So if he like it, whether it be his a
Speaker 1: box or like, you know, because he has boxes in
Speaker 1: his room that we put his toys away in his
Speaker 1: chest and he knows that, like he opens it up
Speaker 1: and he grabs a toy.
Speaker 3: So I'm curious.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's the same thing with gifts, where like
Speaker 1: he you know, he likes just like ripping the paper,
Speaker 1: and he likes opening the boxes and just like grabbing
Speaker 1: what'sever in there. So I think he enjoys that element
Speaker 1: of it, which is a lot of fun for us
Speaker 1: to watch.
Speaker 2: Have you seen those tiktoks where the kids are gifted
Speaker 2: a potato or an avocado and some kids are so
Speaker 2: they like throw it and they're so angry, and then
Speaker 2: some kids are so sweet and they're like, thank you
Speaker 2: so much, Mom, I love you so much. But I
Speaker 2: guess he's not that age yet where you can where
Speaker 2: you can test it verbalized.
Speaker 4: But I plan on if we have kids, I'm going
Speaker 4: to be like, hey, Santa is not real. I'm giving
Speaker 4: you these gifts are from me.
Speaker 2: It's so magical for them to believe in something that's fake.
Speaker 3: I want all the credit. I want all the.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fine, with all due respect, With all due
Speaker 1: respect to the parents out there who don't tell their
Speaker 1: kids the story of Santa Claus, who tried to, who
Speaker 1: say like they don't want a lot of their kids.
Speaker 1: I don't think I could. Just you and I don't
Speaker 1: have anything in common. That's what it really comes to.
Speaker 2: It like magic. They get to believe in magic, but magic.
Speaker 4: Isn't real, So why would I want to instill that
Speaker 4: belief early on?
Speaker 2: It's like it's it goes hand in hand with being
Speaker 2: a child and being just like so pure that you
Speaker 2: get to believe.
Speaker 3: I want the kids to know that I'm the reason
Speaker 3: he's getting presents.
Speaker 2: He will for the rest of his life now one day.
Speaker 4: I want to establish it early on. I need to
Speaker 4: drive it into his brain.
Speaker 2: Hey, that's selfish.
Speaker 4: Mom and dad are buying me these things, and that's
Speaker 4: some magical man that lives in the North Pole.
Speaker 2: That is selfish. I'll still sing the songs and then
Speaker 2: it's pointless.
Speaker 4: I'll get like one small present from Santa every every
Speaker 4: Christmas for him, and they'll be like, oh, Santa's gifts suck,
Speaker 4: but Dad and moms their gifts are awesome.
Speaker 1: You'll give him a potato from Santa, so you'd be like, dude,
Speaker 1: Santa sucks.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I hope Santa doesn't even come this year. I
Speaker 3: don't even like potatoes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, get him out of here.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: How old are you guys when you found out Santa
Speaker 1: wasn't real?
Speaker 2: I went snooping for Christmas presents and I looked and
Speaker 2: then I told my siblings. I have a stepbrother who's
Speaker 2: the same age and my older sister and they were
Speaker 2: all conspiring. They all that both of them were conspiring
Speaker 2: in the basement. I think I was like ten or eleven,
Speaker 2: maybe that's old, maybe younger. I don't know eight, but
Speaker 2: they were in the basement, so yeah, I must have
Speaker 2: it was before third grade because we moved third grade.
Speaker 2: And they were like, oh, we didn't want to tell you.
Speaker 2: We've known for years, and I was like, oh, now
Speaker 2: I feel stupid.
Speaker 3: So you just found out through them?
Speaker 2: No, Because I found Christmas presents that said to Kalin
Speaker 2: from Santa. They had like already wrapped them, right, And
Speaker 2: then I went down until.
Speaker 3: My siblings under the tree. They were like in the closet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and my mom like threw sheet over them. So
Speaker 2: it was before third grade.
Speaker 3: Nice?
Speaker 2: What about you, I don't know, you never believed.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to remember when I probably had a similar situation.
Speaker 4: I would always sneak down around like two am to
Speaker 4: see how big the presents were. Maybe like steal a present,
Speaker 4: sneak went away and like open it in my room.
Speaker 2: That's awful.
Speaker 4: And I think I think similar situation, Like one of
Speaker 4: those times I might have like seen someone under the
Speaker 4: tree putting a present.
Speaker 3: I can't remember. I can't remember. I don't want to
Speaker 3: say anything because I don't know certainly when it was.
Speaker 1: Do you remember, Jared, Yeah, I was probably around eight
Speaker 1: eight or not, I guess.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So maybe that's the right age because you start here
Speaker 1: hearing rumble in school about Santa not being real. Those
Speaker 1: losers who spread those rumors awful, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2: And it's their older siblings who earned it for them.
Speaker 1: I know, those jerks. My sister did a really good job.
Speaker 3: She knew.
Speaker 1: She didn't tell me, but then we were so I
Speaker 1: was always kind of speculating whether Santa was real or
Speaker 1: not at this point in my life. And then my parents.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys experienced this as well when they
Speaker 1: had gifts under the tree. Some said from mom and dad,
Speaker 1: and some said from Santa. So my dad got me
Speaker 1: this baseball contraption. I forget what it was, but it
Speaker 1: had something to do a sports and it said from
Speaker 1: Santa on there. But when I opened it, my dad
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I saw this and I really wanted
Speaker 1: to get it for you, blah blah, bah blah. And
Speaker 1: I was like, but it said from Santa. And then
Speaker 1: he was like, oh. And then my mom and my
Speaker 1: now that I know my mom is an adult, like
Speaker 1: the most Nancy way possible, was like, you know, there's
Speaker 1: something we need to tell you. I like, my uncle
Speaker 1: just died, your dog died. She's just like, you know,
Speaker 1: Sanna's Sanna's not real. Yeah, I found out Christmas morning.
Speaker 1: Don't most kids find out Christmas morning?
Speaker 3: Is that weird? I think that's weird. I mean, I
Speaker 3: don't know, I have no idea.
Speaker 2: I've always sort of like, your siblings just come together
Speaker 2: and you like whisper together, but you never tell your parents.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: That is funny, though, One today, my mom was like,
Speaker 1: Sanna is not.
Speaker 4: Real, Jared, There's something we need to talk to you about.
Speaker 4: We're getting a no, I'm just kidding, Santa's not real.
Speaker 1: It's almost like like do you know looking at my
Speaker 1: sister and she's like, yeah, I've known for a little
Speaker 1: while now, and I'm like.
Speaker 2: Oh my, how she found out? Like did your mom
Speaker 2: sit her down? And she's like, hey, Sanda's not real.
Speaker 1: Probably, my mom's so dramatic, that's amazing. I know she's
Speaker 1: just it's funny now, but you know, there's something we
Speaker 1: need to tell you. I think I have a good
Speaker 1: idea of where this conversation is about to go.
Speaker 4: I think what happened for me was we were, uh,
Speaker 4: we were somewhere for Easter, and my mom would always
Speaker 4: hide Easter baskets around the house for us for us
Speaker 4: to find in the morning, like in complete separate locations.
Speaker 4: We were in Steamboat one Easter, and I think I
Speaker 4: found out that trip that the Easter Bunny wasn't real,
Speaker 4: which then fell into like is Santa reel or any
Speaker 4: of these things real? And then eventually that's when I
Speaker 4: found out all those things were fake.
Speaker 2: Is it's just Santa and the Easter Bunny. I guess leprens.
Speaker 3: Leprecauns aren't real leprechauns.
Speaker 2: I hate to break it too. Oh, I believed in
Speaker 2: lepre cons in like kindergarten.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, I like you go from the I
Speaker 1: felt it like that was just such a big jump
Speaker 1: from like Santa the Easter Bunny.
Speaker 2: I guess almost things there.
Speaker 3: Are unicorn that's a good one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but leper couns makes sense. I was thinking
Speaker 1: of like the horror of the leprechauns, like the gold
Speaker 1: at the pot of gold at.
Speaker 2: The end of the rain ferries are crazy that parents
Speaker 2: can just sneak in there, pull your tooth out from
Speaker 2: under your your pillow, your parent without you waking up.
Speaker 2: That's impressible.
Speaker 1: All hard to be sleep. Seriously, it's very impressive. I'm
Speaker 1: definitely waking up, Dawson, and then as I'm slipping like
Speaker 1: a dollar bill Underneathan trying to take his s.
Speaker 2: Just checking making sure.
Speaker 4: I think my parents would like wake me up in
Speaker 4: the morning and they'd be like, how'd you sleep, And
Speaker 4: while they're like talking to me, they would slip their
Speaker 4: hand under the pillow and do the spot I had a.
Speaker 2: Little actually now that I remember, on my bedside table,
Speaker 2: I had a little tooth holder, so my tooth would
Speaker 2: go in the holder and then they'd replace.
Speaker 3: It with the But I think it's crazy that we
Speaker 3: would just used to lose teeth. Yeah, isn't that disgusting?
Speaker 2: And you get so excited when it wiggled.
Speaker 4: Oh, and it would hurt and then you would cry
Speaker 4: and then you would like put it back in your
Speaker 4: mouth and see if it would fill the cavity up
Speaker 4: with the new with the two that you just lost.
Speaker 3: That's gonna do it.
