Episode #26: The Slightly Offensive Brigade

In this episode of Dad, You Should Never Say That, Micah and Addie swap stories from a whirlwind trip filled with travel chaos, a surprise circus performance, vegan food, and a brand-new truck adventure that definitely went off the rails. 

They brainstorm their future family reunion competition, the SOB Rivalry, complete with an oath, membership perks, and an over-the-top initiation plan. To wrap things up, they dive into a wild “Am I the Asshole” Reddit post, compare Easter basket disappointments, and, as always, keep the conversation funny, chaotic, and very on brand.

We made it to twenty-six.

SPEAKER_02 1:25

We did. We're even with the year.

SPEAKER_00 1:30

Does that mean this is the last one we have to do? 'Cause it's 2026. We're gonna do one episode a year. Now that we're now that we're famous.

SPEAKER_02 1:41

And it's gonna be like a four-hour long episode.

SPEAKER_00 1:45

Yeah, now that uh people recognize us at the uh airport. They buy us beers. And uh yeah. I wish no, I don't actually really want that to happen. That would be a little sketchy.

SPEAKER_02 2:04

For people to like actually listen to this and like know who we are.

SPEAKER_00 2:07

Yeah, like one, it's cool if you listen to us, but two, if you start like trying to talk to me at the airport.

SPEAKER_02 2:13

It's I think that'd be pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 2:16

I mean it would be. Granted, we'd have to have like shirts of our faces on there and probably the name of the cop, because no one can see what we look like. So no one would be able to know what we look like unless they're like families.

SPEAKER_02 2:27

Well, well, no, because we've like the the the Instagram. Well that and also the Instagram of go check out the Instagram, Dad, you should never say that.

SPEAKER_00 2:37

SPEAKER_02 2:47

Go follow it. Uh the only thing.

SPEAKER_00 2:49

Wait, you're missing a letter. D Y Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 3:01

SPEAKER_00 3:17

It's host. We're the only people that follow our own podcast account.

SPEAKER_02 3:22

No, no, no, no. Our podcast account only follows us.

SPEAKER_00 3:26

Oh, I thought we were like the only two people that like are actually watching our Instagram account. Because then I was gonna be real.

SPEAKER_02 3:35

Some of our stuff has like 700 views and oh um, like 300 views, stuff like that. Like our older stuff has some views.

SPEAKER_00 3:45

Like our graphics?

SPEAKER_02 3:47

Yeah, yeah. Like our episode info. Not many likes, but does have that's fine.

SPEAKER_00 3:54

We need to figure out how to make little mini movie reels. Reels. Like if I'm on the toilet, I could give some parental advice and put that in as a reel. Is that how reels work?

SPEAKER_02 4:09

No. Um no.

SPEAKER_00 4:12

We should have reels in the car.

unknown 4:16

No.

SPEAKER_02 4:16

Anyway, do you wanna do you wanna do you wanna finally intro us?

SPEAKER_00 4:20

Oh, I forgot I recorded. Uh Welcome to the Dad, you should never say the podcast. The podcast where daddies and daughters actually just me and her talk. Uh, we come up with topics and the points don't matter. As soon as the summer games start, then the points will matter. But right now we are scoring evenly every episode. Um Riot gets 10 points, Red gets nine because she's younger and she doesn't get the extra point.

SPEAKER_02 4:57

That feels a little ageist. Anyway um, so I can't really ask you how your week was because I was with you for part of your week. Um, how was your week except for the part that I was with you?

SPEAKER_00 5:09

Um I basically worked. Worked, worked, worked, worked, worked. Because I had a I had to do like a week's worth of work in like three days. Because then we basically traveled all day Thursday and then partied Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

SPEAKER_02 5:27

Well, as much, as much well, we partied till about 8 30 p.m. because that's when gramps goes to bed. We party stayed up with grandma until like 9 30.

SPEAKER_00 5:40

No, we were going to bed at like 10, 10 30. Normal adult times. I don't know if my mom sleeps. I think she was still up, like working on her phone or something.

SPEAKER_02 5:53

Who knows? Which is she's probably down, she's probably down in the basement with a loom.

SPEAKER_00 5:59

That's true. One of them she has my mom has lots of looms.

SPEAKER_02 6:05

And sewing machines that don't really work.

SPEAKER_00 6:08

Correct. So, like, why do you need so many? Can you work like two looms? I don't even really know what a loom is. I know it's one of those little things that you like can make comforters and crap with with yarn and whatever.

SPEAKER_02 6:24

Yeah, I I I don't know what a loom was. I don't know what a loom is, but I didn't want to ask and then like get looked at weird.

SPEAKER_00 6:30

She wouldn't have looked at you weird because I don't even know if anybody knows nobody knows the word loom.

SPEAKER_02 6:36

I I wasn't worried about her, I was worried about your brother.

SPEAKER_00 6:38

Oh, well, Zach's an idiot, so it doesn't really matter. That's what you get for being the last boy, is you get all the dumb genes transferred to you.

SPEAKER_02 6:49

Well, he is the only one with a PhD out of the three of you, so um.

SPEAKER_00 6:56

That hurts a little bit. I don't know why you're rubbing and rubbing in the you're rubbing it in. Um hey, my other brother doesn't have one. He's got a master's.

SPEAKER_02 7:07

That's why I said he's the only one who has one out of the three of you.

SPEAKER_00 7:11

No, my other brother has a master's.

SPEAKER_02 7:14

But he doesn't have a PhD.

SPEAKER_00 7:16

No, he I think he was gonna try to work on one and he decided not to. Maybe I should go back and I could be what could I get a doctorate in?

SPEAKER_02 7:27

Um I don't know. Grilling with a pellet grill, sociology, feeding the masses with a you could get it in like humanities, that would be funny.

SPEAKER_00 7:44

Humanities.

SPEAKER_02 7:46

Okay, well, I'm gonna talk about my week a little bit, or more of my day, because my week was kind of boring, and then we'll we'll we'll talk about our trip a little bit. So we went to Walmart today, and we were strolling. Hold on, hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_00 8:03

You're talking about today before you talk about next last week?

SPEAKER_02 8:07

Yes, because I want to show you what I got at Walmart.

SPEAKER_00 8:10

Oh, all right.

SPEAKER_02 8:11

Before it slips my brain. Okay, so we go to Walmart today. I needed, we needed like plates and paper towels for the room, but I was like, hey, let's go, let's go look at the Easter stuff, because Easter's on Sunday. So we're walking around in the Easter section, and look what I found. And I'm gonna explain this for the people listening. It's a duck, but you can you can squish it.

SPEAKER_00 8:36

Doesn't make noise, doesn't squeak.

SPEAKER_02 8:38

I don't know. It's just like a it's like it's like a little it's the duck you put on jeeps. Well, kind of. It's just like squishy, real squishy, and they can like melt. Anyway, I have a whole bucket of them now.

SPEAKER_00 8:51

Oh, squishy ducks.

SPEAKER_02 8:53

In different colors. I think I'm gonna give them out. I think I'm gonna leave them on people's door for are they wait wait wait. But they have little bow ties.

SPEAKER_00 9:02

Inside that container, are they individually wrapped?

SPEAKER_02 9:05

Yes, yes, they are for her protection. I think they're meant no, I think they're meant to give like because we found it in the Easter section of like the the fillers. So I think they're meant to like give in kids Easter baskets. Oh but anyway, I think they're really cute and they're kind of fun to play with because you can just kinda you can just kind of squish them and stretch them and just kind of mess with them.

SPEAKER_00 9:27

You also found the picture you sent me.

SPEAKER_02 9:30

You said you found a uh Yes, we found a squish, we found a stitch squishmallow that is uh like a little Easter bunny. That's a stitch.

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Was that a squishmallow?

SPEAKER_02 9:44

Yeah, it's a squishmallow.

SPEAKER_00 9:46

Oh I learned what a squishmallow is on this trip.

SPEAKER_02 9:51

It's on it's it's on the little tag. But yeah, it's the Disney ones. They had a bunch of them, but we saw the stitch one, we were like, oh my gosh, this is so cute. So I sent it to you.

SPEAKER_00 9:59

Yeah, it was a pretty cool looking stitch. You we have a bunch of stitches.

SPEAKER_02 10:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 10:06

Do you still have all those stitches?

SPEAKER_02 10:08

Yep, they're all upstairs.

SPEAKER_00 10:09

Alright. We had a canopy of stitches at one point.

SPEAKER_02 10:12

We did. And then the other thing that I got was a giant gummy Easter bunny that I'm gonna eat after this episode.

SPEAKER_00 10:18

What flavor is it?

SPEAKER_02 10:20

Strawberry.

SPEAKER_00 10:21

Oh. It's not just like gummy flavored. What is it? Gummy.

SPEAKER_02 10:27

But it's it's nut-free, dye free, fat-free, and gluten-free.

SPEAKER_00 10:31

So it's free.

SPEAKER_02 10:32

So it's pretty good for you.

SPEAKER_00 10:33

Yeah, but it probably tastes like crap.

SPEAKER_02 10:35

How many, how many sugar, how many in the entire thing, how much sugar do you think is in here?

SPEAKER_00 10:40

Well, if it's fat-free, it's a surprisingly low number. If it's fat-free, it should have no sugar.

SPEAKER_02 10:46

No, it has sugar.

SPEAKER_00 10:48

Oh.

SPEAKER_02 10:48

Let's say nine grams of sugar. No, higher than that.

SPEAKER_00 10:57

Um 36.

SPEAKER_02 10:59

Pretty close. So the total sugars is uh 37 grams.

SPEAKER_00 11:08

How many of that is fiber?

SPEAKER_02 11:10

Which I think zero.

SPEAKER_00 11:12

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 11:14

Okay, but here's what's weird. It says total sugars 37 grams, and then under that it says something added sugars, 37 grams, and then total carbs is 55 grams.

SPEAKER_00 11:29

Horrible for you.

SPEAKER_02 11:31

Well, I mean, no, I mean, this is about I think this is equal to a Dr. Pepper.

SPEAKER_00 11:37

Correct.

SPEAKER_02 11:37

And you should like a thing of Dr. Pepper, I think this is equal to.

SPEAKER_00 11:40

You know how many grams of carbs you're supposed to have a day? A hundred.

SPEAKER_02 11:44

This is only wait, no. This says this says 20% total carbs, 20% of what you're have you're supposed to have a day.

SPEAKER_00 11:53

Mm-hmm. For that's what it says on the box. Really large and charge people.

SPEAKER_02 11:57

Well, you're the sugars is only it's 74% of what you're supposed to have in a day. But I haven't had any sugar today. But I'm probably also not gonna eat this whole thing.

SPEAKER_00 12:06

But you should just die, you should like cut parts off of it and then put like you're in home, like you're watching those homicide pictures. Like dissect, like do the inside of it? Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 12:17

Make it look like a murder scene. Anyway, that was my day. And before that, I in for in uh forensics, we got to learn about um we had a fire marshal come in and he talked about uh arson and fire investigations. So it was pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 12:36

That is kind of cool.

SPEAKER_02 12:37

And then we have a guy on Tuesday coming in giving a guest lecture on entomology.

SPEAKER_00 12:44

Have you ever heard of Fire Marshall Bill?

SPEAKER_02 12:47

No.

SPEAKER_00 12:48

You should Google that after this episode.

unknown 12:50

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 12:51

It's a it's a comedy. Uh yeah. Jim Carrey played it on a show called In Living Color, and it was a sketch they had, and it was about a guy named Fire Marshall Bill.

SPEAKER_02 13:05

Okay, I'll look it up.

SPEAKER_00 13:08

You should put it on our Instagram.

SPEAKER_02 13:11

Okay. Let me let me let me let me ask the marketing team. Marketing team says no.

SPEAKER_00 13:19

Oh, I hate our marketing team. They're the worst. Wait, can I get on there? I think I can get in there. Oh, just post it myself.

SPEAKER_02 13:25

Nope, we have we the the whole board is full. So the marketing board is the marketing board is full.

SPEAKER_00 13:31

We're gonna dissolve this company and create a new LLC to where I own 61% of the stock.

SPEAKER_02 13:39

I think you only need 52%.

SPEAKER_00 13:42

Well, 61 you can't be ever taken over.

SPEAKER_02 13:45

Ah. So I'll give you I'll give you 59% about that. Okay. Anyway.

SPEAKER_00 13:54

Uh okay, so what's the one takeaway you learned from the fire guy?

SPEAKER_02 14:00

Uh no, it wasn't really about that. It was more about like how do they investigate, like, what are the procedures, what books do they go by? Right.

SPEAKER_00 14:09

So, what's the coolest thing you learned? Like uh the temperature of a body turns to ash?

SPEAKER_02 14:14

No, we didn't talk about anything. Like melting skin.

SPEAKER_00 14:17

Melting skin.

SPEAKER_02 14:18

What I'm saying is we didn't get to talk about any of that. We didn't get to see any crime scene photos, nothing. I did the only cool thing I learned, if I'm being completely honest. I mean, it was a cool presentation, don't get me wrong. He was a cool guy. Um, was how you can tell the origin of a fire based on the pattern the fire takes.

SPEAKER_00 14:39

Okay. So, but how do you know where it starts then? Is there a certain way?

SPEAKER_02 14:42

Because there's different patterns. There's different patterns.

SPEAKER_00 14:45

Like circles. But what are you talking about?

SPEAKER_02 14:48

So there's there's a so there's a V-shaped pattern, and depending on where the bottom of the V is, because you know, fire goes up and out.

SPEAKER_00 14:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 14:55

Um, and then there's the reversed V form, which is kind of like almost like a straight line with a little bit of outsies.

SPEAKER_00 15:02

Like an A with no middle.

SPEAKER_02 15:04

Kinda. Isn't that just a V?

SPEAKER_00 15:08

Well, that's just what you said.

SPEAKER_02 15:11

And then the last one is it used to be called the pour pattern, but now it's called the irregular shape pattern, and that's when like you dump gasoline or petroleum or whatever, and then you light that on fire, and it's like the certain shape of the oil that's on fire is charred into the carpet.

SPEAKER_00 15:30

That's called an accelerant.

SPEAKER_02 15:32

I know what it's called. I was giving examples. Um I don't want to use big words for your little brain.

SPEAKER_00 15:37

I'm helping our our uh our real smart listeners. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 15:42

I I didn't want to say big words for your little brain. I didn't know if you would know what it meant.

SPEAKER_00 15:45

I have AI assistant. I can ask it a question real quick.

SPEAKER_02 15:50

Did you turn that on? We don't even have that on. You're lying.

SPEAKER_00 15:53

Not on my phone. Hey Siri, what is accelerated?

SPEAKER_02 15:57

This is a podcast, bro. We don't need to hear from Siri.

SPEAKER_00 15:59

Oh, okay. All right, I'll ask it later. I mean, I already know what it is. I was just trying to cover for you of your lack of uh words.

SPEAKER_02 16:10

Lack of words. Um, anyway. So our trip, yeah, we traveled all day Thursday.

SPEAKER_00 16:18

We went Addie took two planes. I drove three and a half hours, and then we got on the same plane.

SPEAKER_02 16:28

We did. We we went to so I flew from Lubbock to Dallas, and then he picked me up from one airport to Dallas in Dallas, so then we could drive to the other airport in Dallas. Um and the good news is is like security was fine.

SPEAKER_00 16:42

And here's a note for people though. When you drop your car off into a parking garage, drop a pin.

SPEAKER_02 16:51

Take a picture.

SPEAKER_00 16:52

Go ahead, take a picture or some sort of uh reference of where you have parked your car, especially when there's multiple garages.

SPEAKER_02 17:01

Yeah, we didn't know there were four garages.

SPEAKER_00 17:04

Not that we um not from any experience we had and not finding our car when we got back.

SPEAKER_02 17:11

Right, right, of being lost for walking for 15 minutes and we're helping people. Yeah, yeah. Just tips and tricks of that we don't know personally. Anyway, yeah, take a picture, drop a pen, do something. Um but anyway, yeah, so we traveled all day. We got to Indianapolis at like 12-ish, I think. Yeah, and we went to go pick up our car, and so we go outside to the little like fast pickup, and there and there's nobody out there, and it's like, go back to the front desk. So we go back to the front desk, there's one person working, there's three people in front of us, and by the time that we got up there, there were like seven people behind us. There's like no other counters open. Um, and we finally get up there, and they're like, the car you wanted is no longer available. And we were like, We booked this a week ago. How do you not have the car we wanted?

SPEAKER_00 18:08

We were trying to look stylish in a Bronco.

SPEAKER_02 18:11

Yeah, we wanted a little Bronco, we wanted because no, you know, we'd never had a Bronco. We thought it'd be fun. It's close to our home of like Jeep Wranglers, and and then they're like, he's like, Well, we have some options like we have a truck, you know, we have a we have an F-150, we have a Chevy Silverado, we have, you know, and then we have electric options, and me and Mike are like, no, thank you. So we're looking at the gas options, and he's like, Okay, so we have a new F-150, a new Chevy, and some other car. Like a Tacoma or something. And um so we get the Chevy, right? And he's like, Oh yeah, I mean it's new, you know. We get to this car, right? It's brand new. I mean 2026, 190 miles on it. Brand new.

SPEAKER_00 19:07

Brand new. Smells excellent.

SPEAKER_02 19:10

Yeah, new car smells still everything.

SPEAKER_00 19:13

It was pretty awesome.

SPEAKER_02 19:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 19:16

Because we like, I mean, I drive a Chevy now, so I already knew where most of the stuff was.

SPEAKER_02 19:23

Um well, we still had to play with some buttons, figure out what was going on.

SPEAKER_00 19:26

We did, and we turned on their uh we turned on their XM satellite.

SPEAKER_02 19:33

We may or may not have accidentally started a free trial for XML.

SPEAKER_00 19:36

Seven-day trial for that class.

SPEAKER_02 19:38

Seven-day free trial. Sorry, buddy.

SPEAKER_00 19:41

My bad.

SPEAKER_02 19:41

Oopsies. It was an accident. Um anyway, but we get out of this parking garage and we're in Indianapolis, and it's we're fine. We get on the road. We're on the road for like 20 minutes. And keep in mind, this is like a two-hour drive. We're going through a time change, we're crossing state lines. The we get torrential rain on us, like to the point that for ther, I would say 30 straight minutes, we couldn't see almost anything.

SPEAKER_00 20:08

Yeah, those wipers were on the struggle bus.

SPEAKER_02 20:11

Yeah, and we're in a brand new car. So, like, not really broken in for this kind of weather yet. Um, but we ended up getting there, I think we got there at what 2, 230, 1.30 their time.

SPEAKER_00 20:26

Yeah, but the time change kind of helped us, but yeah, it was 1.30.

SPEAKER_02 20:30

Yeah. And then um grandma's dog, grandma and grandpa's dog tried to kill us when we came in because grandma didn't try to come to the door.

SPEAKER_00 20:39

Take us out of this conversation. You pushed me in the door first.

SPEAKER_02 20:44

We get up to the door, and I'm like, go ahead, Micah.

SPEAKER_00 20:48

Go first. It wasn't a go ahead. Well, I think you said go as you were pushing my back into it. And then there's this mean looking dog staring at us, crouched down, ready to gullet my throat.

SPEAKER_02 21:00

But it's okay. Grandma came to the rescue and helped us out. She he was barking, and so grandma came out and calmed him down, and we got settled, we went to bed. I'll say this though, I haven't woken up that early that many days in a row in a minute.

SPEAKER_00 21:16

Probably your whole college career.

SPEAKER_02 21:18

Trying to be up, yeah, being up at 8 30 every day for three days.

SPEAKER_00 21:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:24

I mean, yeah, three days, and then the last day I was up at 5 30 in the morning.

SPEAKER_00 21:31

Yeah. Well, that hey, at least I you didn't get in at like four in the morning in Lubbock.

SPEAKER_02 21:38

Yeah, that would have sucked.

SPEAKER_00 21:39

We stayed the night in Dallas in some bougie-ish kind of hotel. Um, so that she could catch the red eye to Lubbock and make her classes on Monday.

SPEAKER_02 21:51

On Monday. But no, overall, it was a fun trip. Um, I I don't know why we're allowed to take trips together because I feel like we have moments where it's just pure I don't know the word except for stupidity.

SPEAKER_00 22:07

Well, we did uh let's talk about Saturday. So part of the fun of us going Friday, we got to hang out with mom, and then my brother came over and just we just made fun of him and he tried to make fun of us, and it's just what we normally do.

SPEAKER_02 22:24

We bought a TV.

SPEAKER_00 22:26

Yes, we we decided my I didn't like the bezel on my dad's TV, so somehow like a four-inch bezel and a 26-inch screen. And it was from I don't know, 2001, maybe. Anyway, so we've we went and goodwilled two of his TVs in his house and then went to Walmart and bought another one. So I mean he he won. And a lot of that was because we wanted to watch the Duke game that night and not on a little ass TV.

SPEAKER_02 22:55

Not on a 400 puzzle TV. Well, and we we sat there for a minute trying to decide if we should get a 50 inch.

SPEAKER_00 23:01

Um Yeah, we should have got a fifty.

SPEAKER_02 23:05

I guess they don't make those anymore, and if they do, they're like weirdly more expensive than the fifties, even though they're smaller.

SPEAKER_00 23:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 23:13

Um, so we're sitting there and we ended up getting like a forty-three inch, which I mean is fine, it fits perfectly, but we were like a fifty would have been what we could have put a fifty-five in there.

SPEAKER_00 23:22

We could have even my dad was cracking jokes of like, um, it kind of looks the same.

SPEAKER_02 23:29

He was like, should have gone bigger, and grandma was like, Nope. Uh-uh. Nope, nope. Not doing it.

SPEAKER_00 23:33

Okay. So then we do that, and then Saturday, my niece has uh like uh an artsy performance. So we were super excited because we don't really uh my niece is like me and Addy, like if we were on drugs and good at a bunch of other things, and and she's like this 100% of the time. She does not stop. It's it's go time all the time for whatever she's doing. Um, but she's smart, she's an actress, she's a sporty girl. Anyway, so her school was doing uh their spring performance, I guess, and it happens to be this thing called the circus, and every year they have a theme, but the fourth graders to eighth grade get to do third, yeah, third, third eighth. Get to do circusy things. And you know, you're like, Well, what does that entail? I'm talking like they put rings in the ceiling, and then the kids get on them, and then they raise them up and they twirl around and hang upside down, and they had silks and all that fun stuff.

SPEAKER_02 24:49

Um, there was juggling. There was juggling on a tightrope. And then one kid there was this guy who looked like he should be in a boy band who was just really good at everything.

SPEAKER_00 24:58

Yeah. He juggled fire, juggled fire, and we were taking bets like it well, okay. So to Addie's point about us being stupid all the time, basically halfway through this thing, we're looking at each other and goes, Oh, dude, they should put that on fire. Not knowing that it not really paying attention. This like fifth graders.

SPEAKER_02 25:19

Yeah, these are middle school and elementary school kids. But we're all thinking of like that could be on fire.

SPEAKER_00 25:24

That guy should be in the fire. Um the big yo-yos, those could have been on fire. They're just tossing them back and forth to each other.

SPEAKER_02 25:32

Perfect. Yeah, for sure. I think they do do that in like the real circus. I think they are on fire. Anyway, so this thing is run by like the circus at the university that's like connected to this school.

SPEAKER_00 25:42

Well, it's not a circus, but no, they have a no, no, no, it's it's a college. I know it's a college organization on campus that anybody can be involved to. Yeah, they just happen to put on this circus, and both of them are at least and all this other stuff.

SPEAKER_02 25:55

Yeah, they do they do they do a circus every year. Anyway, so they train these little kids to these circus acts or whatever.

SPEAKER_00 26:00

Um and and and little niece, little b, we'll just call her B. B got to open up the whole thing.

SPEAKER_02 26:07

Yeah, you put a little speaking role at the beginning.

SPEAKER_00 26:09

You put a microphone in that girl's hand, and it's like, hello, I'm here. Let's go. Real quick.

SPEAKER_02 26:19

She like, not that she knows, I don't think she realizes this about herself, but I feel like every room she walks in is like she is the main character of that room. And it doesn't matter. Like, and it doesn't matter, like, I know a lot of people are like, Oh, well, like she's the youngest cousin, so like that's gonna happen, like she's the baby and whatever. And it's like, okay, there's a part of it that yes, she's much younger than the rest of us, so that's cool. But she also just like has this spirit in her that I think all of us in some ways envy of how like just purely awesome she is. Um, and so when she got that mic and she walked out on stage, like you could see, and she didn't know we were coming, so she saw us like right before she went out, too. Um, and it was awesome.

SPEAKER_00 27:01

Yeah, she uh I don't I yeah, I don't know what it is. It's the entertainer thing of like she's not nervous, she knows her lines, and uh she's funny.

SPEAKER_02 27:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:17

She is so quick on her comeback. So anyway, we got to see her open the show, and then we got to see her hang upside down on a ring, and then she was throwing she twirl, she twirled some twirled some what's that called poi, twirled some streamers or whatever.

SPEAKER_02 27:31

It's called poi, yeah. P O I.

SPEAKER_00 27:33

It's like yo-yos attached to streamers, and you just spin the crap out of these things. It was crazy. Uh and then she did the silks, and for those that don't know what the silks are, it's like a no no no, she didn't do silks, she did hammocks.

SPEAKER_02 27:45

Or different hammock is when it's connected at the bottom, so it's a lot safer. Silks is the one where it's two separate things, and that's only for the older girls. She can't do that yet. She has gotta be, she's gotta be in, she's gotta be one more grade up, and then she can do silks and fire and all the other stuff.

SPEAKER_00 28:01

And then the rope, they had the rope in the middle, and basically those kids would latch one hand on, and then somebody was at this little uh uh uh Asian lady was at the bottom spinning them as fast as she could.

SPEAKER_02 28:15

Dude, it looked like an arm workout. Like she was she was going, and that that that rope what isn't just like a normal rope, like it's specifically made for this, and it looks heavy, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:25

And it and she was whipping her like crazy, and then that girl and that boy were like spinning around, and I was like, Yeah, it was awesome. It was cool. I would have loved to do this in like sixth or seventh grade.

SPEAKER_02 28:35

This is and then we told grandma that we could put one in her backyard and she could learn how to do it.

SPEAKER_00 28:40

She she was she kind of was up for it, she wasn't nervous about it, but if me and you were the one assembling it, she may be a little more to worry. She'd probably call Zach back over and be like, Can you double check this work?

SPEAKER_02 28:53

Can you come help this?

SPEAKER_00 28:54

Okay, now what happened super cool. What is the one thing we always see at the circus? What is the thing you see at circus all the time?

SPEAKER_02 29:02

Clowns.

SPEAKER_00 29:03

Clowns. For those that don't know, I do not like clowns in any kind of way at all. I don't like them in movies, I don't like when they're they show up, places. So in the program, get you one for your birthday. It said, I will I will be 53 this year. If a clown shows up on my birthday, but it said in the program clowns, clowns, clowns, like clowns here, uh eight uh monkey clowns, some other thing, and I told Addie Tornado clowns, yeah. I said, if one of these little clown kids come up next to me, I'm punching him. Because I don't do clowns, I don't care. I've seen Chucky and I've seen no, I haven't actually seen Chucky because I don't really like to see.

SPEAKER_02 29:45

Have you seen it?

SPEAKER_00 29:46

I haven't seen it. Is that the super? Pennywise.

SPEAKER_02 29:48

What yeah, Pennywise. Pennywise. Then this is a clown, but he looks like one.

SPEAKER_00 29:53

But I basically warned her that if those clowns come near me, she's gonna have to like get in front of me because I will punch one of these little kids. I don't care if they're third grade, fourth grade. You clown up on me, son, it's going down.

SPEAKER_02 30:05

Yeah, and we're like first row. Also, big mistake. We are first row at this circus. My uncle really, I mean, to be fair, we didn't really have a choice. My grandfather's in a wheelchair, so it was like we had to be first row, but I don't think I don't think Zach or uh my uncle really realized what he was doing, yeah, putting us in the first row of this circus.

SPEAKER_00 30:25

Um, because we'll we were we were talking through the whole thing.

SPEAKER_02 30:29

Oh, 100%.

SPEAKER_00 30:30

We had our cameras out of the couple of times.

SPEAKER_02 30:33

Yeah, Zach was Zach was talking to, he was talking to me.

SPEAKER_00 30:36

And we were laughing to certain kids, which Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 30:39

There was this dude, bless his heart. There's this guy, everybody's doing like yo-yos or whatever, and there's like 40 kids out here just swinging yo-yos, and this guy in the back right corner is just holding a stick with a plate on top, and he does not want to be there. It was the funniest thing ever.

SPEAKER_00 30:55

And it didn't even look like he was like spinning the like he was supposed to be.

SPEAKER_02 30:58

No, he just stood there with the plate.

SPEAKER_00 30:59

Was the plate like glued onto the top to make it look like it was spinning?

SPEAKER_02 31:03

Dude, I have no idea. But he came back a couple times, and everything that he did, he did it with such a straight face. It was a fun, it was so funny. And then he finally at the end of the circus did something that he was like actually enjoyed, and I was like, okay. I was like, here we are.

SPEAKER_00 31:18

It was uh anyway, it was two uh two hours and fifteen minutes. Um yeah, and then uh unbeknownst to us, we got our first what restaurant was that vegan, uh yeah, vegan. First vegan for me, first vegan, like truly all vegan restaurant.

SPEAKER_02 31:40

Mine too, mine too. So yeah, it was something interesting, dude. That vegan bagel though. I don't know what makes I don't I don't know what makes it vegan, but it was good, and that vegan cream cheese was very good.

SPEAKER_00 31:53

Um I had some sort of breakfast y thing. Yeah, I think, and it was medium, but people vegan sausage don't call it sausage, just call it vegan meat or something because you look at it and you have the expectation that it's gonna taste a certain way. So if you're making vegan sausage, make it taste like sausage. I don't know what that was. But it was a good uh it's basically like making the egg spicy or something. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 32:27

Yeah, it was interesting for sure.

SPEAKER_00 32:29

But it was fun because then we got to go hang out with B after that and kick soccer balls and throw wiffle balls at the end.

SPEAKER_02 32:34

Dude, I yeah, I think I think B in that moment underestimated our ability to play softball. Yeah, she was I think she forgot that the both of us have played softball. So I mean um she I think she underestimated us, but we played softball for a little bit, play with the animals. Zachary my gosh. Zach tried to put a uh what what what is that animal? Um not a Komodo dragon, but uh like just a regular old lizard. No, it's a specific kind of lizard. Anyway, he tried to put a lizard on me, and if if you know me, I don't like reptile I don't like reptilians. I don't my best friend has two, he she has a she has a snake and kind of it's the same thing as this other thing. Anyway, I don't like him, I don't touch him, I don't like to be near them. Anyway, he B brings this thing down in a little case, and Zach grabs it and puts it next to me and is like, you know, I'm trying to get him used to you so that when you pick him up and I'm like, uh-uh, not touching him. I'm not even gonna touch this case. Like, nope, not gonna happen. Um I did touch really fun.

SPEAKER_00 33:44

Um, and then they told me, hey, don't put your hands on anything because sometimes they carry salmonella. And I was like, Well, why'd you let me touch this stupid lizard? If I'm gonna get salmonella, and then I washed my hands real quick, and then I touched B and told her I didn't wash my hands, so she was all weirded out. Um, because that's what you do.

SPEAKER_02 34:06

No, we had some fun. Um, Zach and Micah really struggled to change a tire.

SPEAKER_00 34:11

We didn't struggle, we had that crap off.

SPEAKER_02 34:15

All I heard was a loud bang like 15 minutes in, and I was like, what is going on? And the car turned off, so I'm sitting there in the heat, and I'm just well, yeah, you should have told me.

SPEAKER_00 34:23

So my bad.

SPEAKER_02 34:25

The car turns off after the key not being in there for 20 minutes or whatever, however long they were out there. But no, it was fun, and then probably my highlight of the trip, other than like B, my highlight with you of the trip was that ride back. So we me and Micah have this un uncanny problem with Dairy Queen. We very much like Dairy Queen. Um now I struggled to put my shoes on in the car, so I went in in my socks.

SPEAKER_00 35:02

Yes. Um button Which is pretty funny because nobody paid attention.

SPEAKER_02 35:07

No, no, there's like four people in this Dairy Queen. Like nobody was there.

SPEAKER_00 35:12

But so we like we like Dairy Queen ice cream. I like it more than Sonic, and it's probably because I grew up on Dairy Queen. And uh so we get our little things, which is normally dude, I asked for a medium dip cone. For those that have, if you've been to Dairy Queen, the dip cone should be maybe three inches, maybe. And as small as like an inch and a half, and you know, they they spogge it in the little cone, and then you dip it in the chocolate or strawberry, whatever they got going on. This thing was probably nine inches tall.

SPEAKER_02 35:50

Very large, giant, and I was like, three three of the swirls.

SPEAKER_00 35:55

Oh, it was crazy. Yeah, and then Addie got hers. And then I don't know, there must be like drugs and the ice cream or something because every time we do this, and then we have like an hour ride or something, it just goes. Like a topic comes up, and then we're talking about it forever.

SPEAKER_02 36:16

Yeah, we talked about this. Imagination's go. Yeah, we talked about the the thing we're about to talk about. We talked about from the parking lot of the Dairy Queen until the driveway of Grandma and Grandpa.

SPEAKER_00 36:30

Mm-hmm. And even to the door.

SPEAKER_02 36:32

I think we had a to the door that we walked in. Um but yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:39

So a couple episodes back we talked about do what how we're gonna do family reunions. Like, what is a cool way to do a family reunion? Uh and it's kind of like um, I guess it would be from me to the generation down. So d daughter, son, and then if they have any kids, it'll be a long time before they get to play. But then all the daughters, and then uh husbands, and then a few assorted friends that we think can handle this type of activity.

SPEAKER_02 37:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 37:14

And we talked about it two two episodes ago, an episode ago?

SPEAKER_02 37:19

Way longer than that.

SPEAKER_00 37:20

I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 37:21

Dude, this was this might have been five episodes ago. This was this was a while ago.

SPEAKER_00 37:27

But we think we have uh a lot of it figured out, but I'll let Addy talk about because she's more of the planner slash how do we get these things and get people uh what is it not even signed up, uh get people interested in it? Like in a funny in a funny way.

SPEAKER_02 37:50

Yeah, I'm more of the I'm more of the type A person. Like I like to have things planned, like I like to I like to be on top of these things. Um so we're in the car and we're talking about it, and we're just trying to like think of like games and rules and all these things, and I look at Mike and I go, we don't even have a name for this thing. Previously, we had been classifying it as the drunk Olympics, which isn't really what it is. So we were like, we need to come up with an actual name. So we're you know, I'm on Google Gemini, my best friend, not sponsored, but I have Google Gemini Pro free for a year because I'm a student. So I'm on there, I'm typing away. I'm like, give me funny names, like short names that could work for this. And we're getting a bunch, and there was a bunch that were pretty good.

SPEAKER_01 38:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 38:33

Um, and I looked at Micah and I said, and then there was one that was like kind of like a punny or whatever with cuss words, but it wasn't really a cuss word. It was like, it should have been, but it wasn't. It was a different word. Anyway, so I look at Micah and I go, What if the acronym is SOB? Right.

SPEAKER_00 38:52

Yeah. Son of biscuit.

SPEAKER_02 38:54

Son of a biscuit. So, and Michael laughs hysterically, right? And so I'm like, perfect, we got this. And so then I'm on Google Gemini and I'm like, what ac I'm like, give me names, but the acronym has to be SOB. So we're we're thinking, you know, we're we're trying a bunch of different ones, we're putting stuff together, trying to like, we're trying to think of a word that's comes like that is the same as like group or club that starts with a B, and there's not many of them. No, it's like bunch, like, you know, there's a couple. And then we find brigade, which on its own is a kind of a funny word. Um so and we we had already kind of figured out the first two words, so um we decided that SOB was gonna stand for the slightly offensive brigade. Um and so the game, like the annual game every year is gonna be called the SOB Rivalry, because it's Micah versus me, right? And we're gonna have a trophy and like your team name's gonna get engraved on it, it's gonna be all cool, whatever. And so then we're like, okay, so we have the SOB rivalry, and then we have the SOB. So what like what are we gonna do with this SOB? Like, we have a name for it, but it doesn't really fit with the rivalry. What are we gonna do? And Micah goes, What if we make it like a membership thing? Like you have like you can come to the SOB rivalry, but then there's also if you're a member of the SOB, SOB, like the slightly offensive brigade. So then we go down this rabbit hole of like, and then I type something into Google Gemini and says, Do you want an initiation speech? And I said, Yes, we do. So we pull it up and it's hilarious. I read it to Micah, we're laughing, whatever. And then the bottom of it is like, again, it's like, do you want me to come up with membership perks? And I'm like, oh yes, I do. So that's when you know, we kind of decided like the SOB rivalry is the name of the annual game. However, to be part of the SOB, if you're not part of the original group, you have to like, we're gonna come up with this part we haven't fully come up with yet, but you got to complete something or do good at something or whatever. Um, and then there's things throughout the year you have to do to like keep your membership. But if you have your membership and you come to the SOB rivalry, every year you have different perks. So you have three perks for the entire competition that can be used one time, yeah. And they're totally different things, and they're completely they're very dumb, but it like kind of changes gameplay a little bit and it makes you want to be in the SOB.

SPEAKER_00 41:32

So yeah, that's kind of that that was kind of the extent of our conversation, and it took us an hour to kind of get to where we wanted to be, and we were laughing, and which I think was part of it, but and you have to say the pledge, and then you get a we'll get we'll have swag for your official membership.

SPEAKER_02 41:50

Oh no, and like the initiation will be me and Micah in black trench coat, like black coats with it over our head. We're gonna hold candles. I can't tell them like Well I know, but like it's to the it's it's like have you seen well it's like when you see watch movies of like the fake like frat initiation of sorority initiations like way over the top, and it's like this is not what actually happens. It's gonna be similar to that. We haven't worked out like all the kinks of it, but we're gonna make it as dramatic and as dumb as possible.

SPEAKER_00 42:20

Correct, because that's what it should be dramatic and dumb. And uh you like, yeah, we haven't figured out if you have to be invited or if you know what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02 42:34

Yeah, and then we're still we're still working out some of the rules and the games and kind of what what we're gonna when are we gonna do this, when are we gonna start this, kind of?

SPEAKER_00 42:42

And then every year we'll be you won't be on the same team every year. It's like a draft.

SPEAKER_02 42:49

Yeah. So we pick 20, we pick 18 people, and then whenever you and there's like theme, there's a theme every year.

unknown 42:58

Right.

SPEAKER_02 42:58

So you bring clothes for that theme or your team, or like, um, and then we'll have team shirts for like that team or whatever made. So like when you get there and you find out what team you're on, you have your shirt. But when we get there, we're basically gonna draw from a hat to figure out what or we'll have some kind of team name, like team choosing process, but it'll basically be completely random of the 18 people who come.

SPEAKER_00 43:21

So you have no idea what team you're on or who you're competing against, and then you're you'll that team will come up with their own original name based on whatever the theme is. So some years we may have themes to where like uh Robin Hood. And then maybe the two teams are based on the Robin Hood whatever, or that's a dumb thing. Hunger Games.

SPEAKER_02 43:43

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or and then it's like the different districts or you know, whatever it is.

SPEAKER_00 43:48

Yeah, yeah. So anyway, uh, we're pretty excited about it. We're probably like two or three years out from it. We may do a test run with just our original Yeah, the original friends.

SPEAKER_02 43:58

Yeah, yeah. Um like a mini mini version of it.

SPEAKER_00 44:02

They'll be able to invite somebody if they want to do the the full test of like because you know, with six people, that would be like three people on team. So we need like ten, twelve people.

SPEAKER_02 44:16

Probably twelve. Six for us and ten other people.

SPEAKER_00 44:21

Anyway, that'll be um that'll be pretty fun.

SPEAKER_02 44:24

Yeah, but yeah, we sat for an hour, talked about that. We continue to talk about it throughout the trip. Um, but it was really fun. It was really cool to kind of get that planned out more.

SPEAKER_00 44:34

Well, I think I think the oath is the funniest, one of the funniest things I've ever oh no, it was hilarious.

SPEAKER_02 44:40

Um I'm not gonna read it because that's gonna give it out, but right, but people have to read it. Yeah, yeah. It's very funny.

SPEAKER_00 44:46

Uh we should make them have to post it. That would be like we record them and then they have to post it on one of their social media in order for it to actually be official.

SPEAKER_02 44:57

Dude, for sure. That'd be so funny.

SPEAKER_00 45:01

Um yeah, so we did that.

SPEAKER_02 45:04

Overall was a great trip.

SPEAKER_00 45:05

And then Sunday we uh went to some Illinois donut place and got some donuts, and they don't have Calachis there, so we're kind of bummed. We guess that's a a Texas Southern thing.

SPEAKER_02 45:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:19

They kind of looked at us funny when we said Calachis.

SPEAKER_02 45:24

Um, but overall it was good. We went to the airport that day, had you know, just hung out in the airport, watched Duke lose so sadly.

SPEAKER_00 45:33

We were mad before.

SPEAKER_02 45:34

I was watching I was watching on the Esp.

SPEAKER_00 45:37

Oh well, I was watching it, and then my internet went out with like a minute left, so I didn't even get to see any of it, and then the internet came back on. Maybe that was why they knew I was gonna like throw an iPad or something to somebody.

SPEAKER_02 45:49

Um yeah, it was very, very sad ending to the run this year. I really thought they were in it for the championship.

SPEAKER_01 45:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 45:57

And one one terrible pass and an interception in the last 10 minutes of the game, last 10 seconds of the game, really, really messed it up for them.

SPEAKER_00 46:07

So dumb.

SPEAKER_02 46:09

But yeah.

SPEAKER_00 46:11

But he'll get one. I'm sure Shire's got another stacked class coming and one of the I just wish people would stay, wish basketball kids would stay for a couple years.

SPEAKER_02 46:23

Yeah, like football when you can play for like six years or whatever.

SPEAKER_00 46:26

Yeah, these kids that have an NBA potential. They come and they play for one year and then they go make money. It's ridiculous. Um, all right. Okay, so and then we got home and oh, we went to when we got in back into Dallas before we went to the hotel.

SPEAKER_01 46:47

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 46:48

We went to like one of the the ghettoist waffle houses. Like there was people standing outside around a car, and I was a little nervous going in because there was nobody in there eating. Yeah, no, well, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_02 47:03

There were there were like there was like a couple, and then this one this one guy sitting at the bar or whatever. Um, but there's there's one guy back there working.

SPEAKER_00 47:12

Yeah, one little short cook, and then the little the guy that was our waiter, which is a great dude.

SPEAKER_02 47:17

Yeah, he was super sweet.

SPEAKER_00 47:18

Um was like real excited that we tipped him.

SPEAKER_02 47:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 47:22

Whatever 40 bucks or whatever it was.

SPEAKER_02 47:24

Yeah, yeah. We went there at like 9 p.m. or something. Um to our hotel, went to bed pretty early because I had to be up 5 30 in the morning. And I'm I'm not a morning person.

SPEAKER_01 47:36

No.

SPEAKER_00 47:37

But yeah, it was a good trip.

SPEAKER_02 47:39

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 47:41

Just like our normal cannonball stuff. We travel like crazy and then we hang out for a couple days and we have to travel like crazy.

SPEAKER_02 47:49

Yeah. Got home Monday morning, went to class. Um, so went to my other class. Um, so yeah. Was a very quick trip with a lot of travel.

SPEAKER_00 48:05

Yeah, which was good. We gotta like see get to see some some family that we don't normally get to see.

SPEAKER_02 48:12

Yeah. I don't know how long we've been doing this thing for.

SPEAKER_00 48:19

Who knows? Forty minutes, 45. It's all a big blur.

SPEAKER_02 48:25

For sure. We just start yapping.

SPEAKER_00 48:27

Yeah. I spent all day today and I have to go all day Monday getting stuff ready for my golf tournament.

SPEAKER_02 48:35

Oh yeah, I forgot that's coming up. Well, I'm in my last month of school. One more month of school for this semester. For this year.

SPEAKER_00 48:45

Do you have a lot of work to do?

SPEAKER_02 48:47

Like papers and yeah, I've been procrastinating a lot of it, so I should probably stop doing that. Uh really get on it, but yeah. We'll see. We'll see if I do that or not.

SPEAKER_00 48:59

Stop slacking.

SPEAKER_02 49:00

It's not slacking, it's just not doing it in that moment.

SPEAKER_00 49:09

Well, um weren't you gonna ask me something?

SPEAKER_02 49:15

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So I have a thing. It's it's pretty popular right now. It's been popular for a minute. This is from okay, this this post is from three years ago.

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 50:06

Interesting, right? That's what kind of caught my eye. I haven't read this yet, so we're reading this together for the first time. Okay, here we go. You ready?

SPEAKER_01 50:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 50:15

So this is happening, this is from three years ago. So this is happening in real life, and I don't know if my emotions are super high right now or if I'm completely in the right. My sister-in-law is getting married, and I have been helping her to plan her wedding from the DJ to the makeup artist to hair and etc. And she asked me to be in the wedding party. I agreed. My husband agreed to have me read a prayer at the church, even though I'm not religious, and to sponsor the wedding. I was never asked to do that. Comes to sponsor mean like pay for part of it. I'm guessing. Is my guess. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 50:55

Who knows? All right, go ahead.

SPEAKER_02 50:56

So this uh, and then come to today, her first dress fitting. I'm there with my mother-in-law, with my mother-in-law, my sisters-in-law, and few and her future in-laws. Everyone was looking at bridesmaid dresses, and so was I. I let I was then in that moment told I was no longer in the wedding party. I was not allowed to be in the wedding photos and would have to drive myself to the wedding due to my husband being in the groom's party. I was told I was basically the wedding planner and would need to leave after the ceremony while the wedding party took photos to make sure the reception was being set up correctly. I walked away and texted my husband that I was upset, but I didn't want to ruin his sister's big moment. She picked her dress and they continued to look for bridesmaids' dresses. I told my sister-in-law I was leaving, and congratulations on the dress. I made it outside and began to cry, and I called my husband to explain the situation to him. This isn't the first time his family has done this to me in the nine years we've been together. They've disrespected me and my marriage so many times. I explained I no longer want to attend the wedding, and he said, Okay, but I still am. I told him if he wanted to, that was fine. But it would be the last time he allows his family to make me feel this way. He said, I'm being ridiculous, and that my and that his family agrees with him. So am I the asshole?

SPEAKER_00 52:30

Whoa, that's a lot. Yeah. Um, I don't I don't think she's the asshole. I think he's the asshole.

SPEAKER_02 52:39

Oh, I think I think so too.

SPEAKER_00 52:41

Yeah, like at some point, now granted, it would be more fun if we knew some of these other times that she was treated like crap to get like a better idea if like if some of those she was just being hyper emotional. But like, how could you be at the wedding place getting your bridesmaid's dress and then all of a sudden be told you're not in the party anymore?

SPEAKER_02 53:05

Yeah. So one of the comments is no, you're not, follow through with it. And if he can't stick up for you, if you're petty, call, cancel everything that you had a part in planning. Any money you spent, return any and everything. And the writer, her name is O, like it's OP, is kind of her is kind of the thing for people who write this on Twitter or on Reddit, said, I was I said I was going to cancel the hair and makeup, and my husband told me that his sister had already been in contact with her own. Kind of makes me feel like they just used me for my resources. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 53:45

I mean, I don't think she's an asshole.

SPEAKER_02 53:47

I don't think she's I don't think she's being the asshole. And if I'm being completely honest, I would probably get a divorce in this moment. Or I would be like, it would be definitely a conversation to be like, yo, one more chance one more.

unknown 54:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 54:01

One more. You get what you get one more of them being disrespectful and I'm out. Or our relation, you know, like our relationship is over, or our relationship with them is over. Like one of the two.

SPEAKER_00 54:14

Yeah. Or maybe they just calm the crap down. I wonder if they're rich.

SPEAKER_02 54:18

For sure. Well, it sounds like she was paying for part of the wedding for her sister-in-law. Like, that's what it sounds like. It sounds like she was paying for part of it, but then she was told, like, you're not in the wedding, we don't want you in the wedding photos, we just want you to be the wedding planner and to pay for everything.

SPEAKER_00 54:39

The wedding photos would be the big thing because is it isn't the group, you know, her family in the photo?

SPEAKER_02 54:47

Like her her husband would be, yeah. Because it's her husband's face.

SPEAKER_00 54:51

Yeah, but her husband and the and the wife of the husband are always in the photos. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 54:55

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 54:56

So yeah, that makes it so weird. That's so weird. Yeah, like if your husband's trying to get huh. Maybe they're trying to get her so mad that she would get out of the family.

SPEAKER_02 55:08

Maybe, I don't know. It's just it's weird of that switch up of like, you're in the wedding, you know, you're gonna read this prayer, you're gonna do this thing, and then all of a sudden they're like, You're not in the wedding party, you're not gonna do the wedding photos. You have to drive yourself, you're a wedding planner, that's it, basically.

SPEAKER_00 55:29

Well, you know, let's go back to what we've always kind of said is like when there's a story between two people, um, you sometimes get the version of what they want you to know, but they're maybe leaving out a couple of items. Wondering if there's a couple of items that are being left out. But if that's exactly how the story goes, then yeah, that's uh I'm with her. Get out, get out.

SPEAKER_02 55:59

Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 56:02

I have seen I have some scenes seen a few things from that uh asshole thread.

SPEAKER_02 56:08

I think some of them are pretty crazy, but this was one of like the tamer ones I found, but I didn't read it, but I just saw the headline and I was like, oh, this one could be definitely interesting.

SPEAKER_00 56:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 56:19

Um yeah. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 56:29

I wonder how many of those things are real now that I'm thinking about it.

SPEAKER_02 56:33

Probably some of them, but probably not all of them. Like some of them are to the point that I'm like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 56:40

I mean, you can get some good country songs out of that.

SPEAKER_02 56:43

There's there's one, I'm just reading the title. It says, Am I the asshole for telling my husband's kids how broke he was when we met after they insinuated that I was a gold digger? Dang, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_00 56:57

Um I mean, leave those kids strapped in, drive the car off the cliff.

SPEAKER_02 57:04

It's really long. So I'm not gonna read it.

SPEAKER_00 57:07

Just kidding. I don't, I'm not saying you should do that.

SPEAKER_02 57:10

No, no, no, definitely not. Um, but what's funny is now that this has become such a big thing, there's literally like um a vote. Like where you can literally on Twitter, like, or not, oh my god, on Reddit. Yeah, you can vote whether they're the the asshole or not.

SPEAKER_00 57:31

Wow. Well, yeah. Um for more disenfranchising stories about things, go check out that Reddit page. And if you don't know, Reddit is a a hotbed of open forum, open communication.

SPEAKER_02 57:51

Yeah, just be careful. There's some crazy things on there. So careful what you're looking up.

SPEAKER_00 57:56

A hundred percent.

SPEAKER_02 57:57

But um, yeah. Anyway, I thought that would be fun to kind of end the episode on.

SPEAKER_00 58:03

Perfect.

SPEAKER_02 58:04

A new thing.

SPEAKER_00 58:05

A new thing.

SPEAKER_02 58:09

Well, okay, well, Easter's coming up. Are you doing anything for Easter? Uh no, because you're not here, so uh I'm sad that I'm not getting an Easter basket this year, and I was told that I'm not getting one mailed to me, so I'm a little upset about it. A little upset about it.

SPEAKER_00 58:26

That's weird. Why?

SPEAKER_02 58:29

I wouldn't I've had an Easter basket every year. I know, but if my 24-year-old brother gets an Easter basket, I should get an Easter basket.

SPEAKER_00 58:38

Well, how do you know he's getting one?

SPEAKER_02 58:41

Because he always gets one. And he's at home, so he'll probably get one. But yes, I texted the matriarch and said Where is my I said, are you sending me an Easter basket? And she said, wasn't planning on it. And I was very sad.

SPEAKER_00 59:01

Well that can happen. That's unfortunate.

SPEAKER_02 59:11

Yes. So I have my I have my squishy ducks and my strawberry ginormous gummy bear.

SPEAKER_00 59:21

Ginormous gummy bear. Oh yeah, with uh four thousand calories.

SPEAKER_02 59:25

It's not four thousand calories. How many two hundred and forty calories? Oh that's not bad at all.

SPEAKER_00 59:37

That is not bad.

SPEAKER_02 59:39

And four grams of protein.

SPEAKER_00 59:43

I mean, that's not horrible.

SPEAKER_02 59:47

Yeah, there's not that. What what what would that be?

SPEAKER_00 59:55

No, like you uh you can get an Easter basket. Like Amazon doesn't have Easter baskets, do they?

SPEAKER_02 1:00:01

I don't know. I mean look.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:04

No, I'm just saying, like, that could be a big business, and you could just make a ton of money in like a week and then you're live in the Bahamas for the rest of the time.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:14

Well, I feel like it would be a a side job.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:18

A side hustle.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:19

I mean, I know Etsy has them where you can just like order. How do you spell Easter, bro?

SPEAKER_00 1:00:26

SPEAKER_02 1:00:56

But I mean, oh, I mean this one's got a little bunny in it, some pirates' booties, some Sour Patch Kids.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:04

Wow.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:05

Yeah. You also could have just thrown some stuff in a box and FedExed it.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:11

SPEAKER_02 1:01:12

But no, didn't happen.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:15

SPEAKER_02 1:01:16

Because I was told by the matriarch.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:19

How do you know I didn't do it?

SPEAKER_02 1:01:21

You can FedEx things for you can't even read.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:24

I can FedEx things perfectly fine. I have a corporate account.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:31

You do. Oh wait, you have FedEx me something before. Yes.

unknown 1:01:37

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:38

I forgot about that. I don't even remember what you FedExed me, but I do remember you FedExing me something. Oh, it was my passport and my social security card.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:47

Yeah, I did do that one time.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:49

Um anyway, okay. Let's get out of here. Take us out.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:54
