Best of Brown Bag. We are 106. LA's number one for hip-hop. It's Friday, and here we are we our Leti, Concretto, Gregorio, and Julicario, and Victoria. Buenos days.

We know it's a heavy day. We know it's a heavy, shoot, we know it's a heavy life, man. Yes. But we're here for you, and we're trying to make the best of it and in light of this day. I do want to make mention and still show love and support because here,

I will just speak for myself personally, and you guys are feel free to chime in. Yeah. Like interrupt me when you need to or want to. I don't want to judge people, but I just want to love on people. Pause. There's a lot of people that are afraid right now. There's a lot of people that are panicked right now. Anxiety.

You wake up. It's weird. You're worried about your family members. Those are the people I specifically would like to wrap my arms around today and just show you, at least in solidarity, how I feel about you. there is a general strike going down across the nation where people were asked to participate but we know that's not possible. Not for everyone. People want to work.

It's like, hey, I see the comment. Are you going to pay for my day off at work? Totally understandable. I do see that there are other ways that if you'd like to participate in the general strike that's happening, that you can. You know, one thing that's going down out here in Los Angeles is there are a lot of vendor buyouts. We see it all the time.

because contrary to popular belief, it's still happening out here in Los Angeles very much. So I believe a couple days ago was probably, and I got to big up to L.A. Taco, their social media account has been very on top of the daily happenings of these raids. And they've counted, I believe, the past couple of days have been really, really harsh on us. But it's just been silent and under the radar, which they probably figured out the strategy. Like hit multiple places often versus one place heavy so that it doesn't make as big quote unquote a scene. Yeah. But these things are very much still happening out here. And there's a lot of vendor buyouts because clearly the venue, you pass by sometimes.

There's a vendor cart that's empty. Yeah. Yeah. I've seen that. So there's different ones. There's one in Echo Park. And we're going to put it on our on our Instagram page. There's an Echo Park vendor support fund.

There is, excuse me, a West Side Venture. vendor buyout because according to this post a couple days ago, I launched nine raids in the span of two hours. So a lot of the West Side Street vendors were a primary target for kidnapping, which left families without their loved ones. If you feel so inclined to give five bucks, to give ten bucks, we're going to post it on our Instagram account so that you can do that. There's also like you're not supposed to be like shopping to show like how strong our dollars.

Yeah. I'm eating, I'm drinking this. What is this? A unsweet, black, cold brew coffee. Stock coffee. One of the best ones ever made. God. I don't even know where the date is.

But I'm like, dang, I can't buy you a coffee. It's cracked. It's true. Just drink you straight out of the bottle. She has been drinking straight out the bottle. It's one of those days, huh? Yeah, that's actually poured into small cups. Yeah.

And you're going straight to that night. Oh, no. Not, I mean, you're rich. There you go I'm kidding I'm kidding I don't know how that's drank Leslie you were already taking swigs Just keep it going

Just not a feel there Don't move lots of shots now Just like my deal for real Have you ever had that day in your house Where like you go to the fridge You open it you see there's nothing there And then you go up like 10 minutes Looking again

Yeah Like if something will show up All of it is just weenies Yeah Sometimes it does show up Sometimes you miss it the first time. That's what happens.

That's why we go back. Oh, there goes that posse. Oh, yeah. To me, it's like how many times that's to open it to like finally give into the weenie? Yeah. Oh, great.

I eat the raw hot dog. That's perfect, though. A little lime and some tapatio. Let's go. Hey, invent the iPhone. Don't go anywhere. Because while I was digging through our fridge here to see what coffee I could drink,

because I couldn't buy today, I see someone has food prepped. And I was like, oh, damn, who bought food prep? And then what was your answer, Umberto? Oh, me did a lunche this morning. Who? What? Me did he's a lunche.

Oh, he spent the night somewhere. Oh, yeah. Who made you lunch? Who made you lunch? Is the girl that's your friend? Yeah. My home girl. Oh, my God.

You need a homie or need some help. We need your help. We need a line. I mean, phone line. We got your phone. The homie helpline. Ulysses needs our help. Ulysses.

Ulysses hit us up and said, okay, brown bag, I've seen posts about money and relationships, so I wanted help with my situation. I'm 38, married to a 32-year-old female. Let's call her Sandra. That's right. I've worked since I was 16.

I was a foreman in construction for 10 years and other trades. I made some okay money. My wife went to college. She got her degree while we were dating, and we've been married for three years now and have lived together for six. We have a two-year-old baby girl together. About a year ago, though,

she asked me to be a stay-at-home dad. It was a hard change for me, for many reasons, but my wife makes a lot of money. My wife makes a lot of money. So financially, we are great. We're actually set to buy a house in a few months. Wow. But here's my problem.

What's her at? I've got a lot of haters. From family to friends, my boys clown me all the time. When we hang out on Sundays and they're leaving, they say, I got to go. Some of us got to get up for work in the morning. They all talk their ish and say, I don't do anything, even though I'm fully capable of working,

which is true, I can work, but this works for us as a family. I'm able to watch my daughter and give my wife all the time to work. My mom has even said mean comments to me. She told me, I never imagined the man that I raised would ever stop working. I'm getting guilted by my family and friends and even my mom for staying home and not working. Am I doing something wrong being a stay-at-home dad, brown bag? Help me out.

I'm jealous. Brother, you're living the dream. He is. He's a trophy husband. He's living the dream, but he's getting judged for it. We talked to him yesterday, and Ulysses did tell us that, With his homies, it's playful. It's like, yeah, oh, yeah, go cook dinner.

They'll make fun of him. But it hurts him when it's from his parents because he feels it's mean-spirited. Like, dang, they really hurt. Yeah. The other one's jokey and then it's the, then there's the mean one. Floho. I'm here to defend him as a brother of somebody that is of stay-at-home dad. Okay.

My brother stays at home all the time, takes care of the kids. So I'm here to defend anything that's said against them. Okay. A defender. We get you. I get jealous. I'm like, wow, he gets to stay at home and just chill and, you know, watch the kids. It must be nice.

So no one's judging him. I am. You are? Absolutely. I've said this before. Like, I grew up with, like, my neighbor was a stay-at-home dad. His wife went to work. And I never really respected that guy.

Oh, you have said that. Yeah. I would, you know, walk on his lawn. What are you going to do about it? I'm on the fence You know Like it's just like I never like

My dad told me like Lazy guy over there Never be him I'm like Got it You know And it's like Literally

Never be Never be Never be lazy Dave He would always tell me And I'm just like Yeah You know It's to me

It's just It's giving up like Your power just as a person You know what I'm saying You lose You could lose identity You could lose purpose unless you find it somewhere.

And, you know, we did ask him, how does your girl feel about this? And he's like, she tells me to just kick back. Oh. I mean, he has to do what she says. I'm on the fence about it. Because I feel like I work a lot. Yeah.

But at the same time, I'm like, I'm tired. I get tired too, you know? Yeah. So I'm on the fence about it. I get it. But could you stay home? No. Right?

What if you're like? Well, not because, like, Like, if your wife. No, what I'm saying, like, just in general, like, me personally, like, just me being at home, like, even if I'm at home, I'm doing something at home. Yeah. So I'm always working. Yeah. Like, I'm cleaning or I'm fixing this or I'm doing that.

Like, there's really no chilling, you know, like, I feel like I don't find purpose in life just sitting down. But if your wife is like, hey, babe, you know, you don't have to work anymore. I got it, you know. I would still work. Yeah. For you. Yeah. For my little thing.

You have a little shop for my little botanx. I'm a little bit of my nails done. A little home goods trip. Yeah, my little thing. So I grew up with my mom being the breadwinner. And I always thought, like maybe the way that I am was because of the example I saw. Like I never was like, quote unquote, like the gender role stuff because I saw my mom go out and get it. But my dad, like, I loved how he was with myself and my sister.

Granted, he worked for himself because he's a locksmith. And we were stuck with him a lot in the car Like we'd be in the car while he's making keys Or he's at junkyards or like Repossession lots and stuff like that And I'm like fighting with my sister But it did feel very much like he had us He took care of us

He made sure we ate He made sure we were good Every morning dropping us off Every afternoon picking us up And you guys know my relationship With my dad is so strong Yeah you know So I guess like seeing that

When there's a kid involved That kid is gonna be so appreciative of you hopefully. Hopefully that kids are not just like, screw you, dad! And when, how he treats you. But I do see that there's sometimes people like shame that.

There's people I would like, look at that and be like, well, is that even a man? I just think because of the beginning of time, it's been like either you're a hunter food or you're a gatherer. But even like when my dad being a stay-at-home, quote-unquote, or not being the breadwinner, he worked. Like, he would take us to his locksmith jobs.

He would figure it out, you know? So I'm wondering for that. Is there anything? he's doing and to him is like not like a take care of the kids he's too busy to call us today by the way which is which is not look couldn't clear his schedule you know a lot of things yeah it's not easy it's not easy being a stay-at-home dad mom like that's that's hard bro like i've tried to need oh my god oh you have what you've tried to be a stay-at-home dad no like just watch the kids at home for a day or something like the kid by the way is in daycare wait a minute yeah yeah yeah

three days a week scratch everything i've said he's lazy Bastard. Best of Brown Bag. How should he handle this? People hating on him. Hating because they ain't him. Hey, guys. Nah, I get it.

I have a two-year-old myself. We're not financially set up. My wife and I, you know, to be able to, you know, one of us stay home. I would love for my wife to stay home and, you know, raise our kids. You know, some people are fortunate to get that.

You know, if I was in the position where my wife, me like way more than me. I would for sure stay home. No trip. I would stay home in a heartbeat why because I would love I want somebody to raise my daughter whether it be me or my wife, not some stranger in a daycare. Oh. And, uh, you know, I was on this guy's side up until, you know, he, uh, you know, I saw bad for him. You know, I rather like, uh, I'd rather stay with his kid and raise his kid. And then you guys said he, he, he takes his kid to daycare because he needs me time. That's what I said. Your kid needs your me time. Man, you're tripping.

You're going to have safe. You know what I mean? Like, you can't have somebody raised your kid and be like, I'm going to go home and do nothing. I'm going home to fight dragons like concrete. They're like ripping. Yeah. So what should he do in Oresto?

I got to. If I was a home of Ulysses and then my wife's like, hey, you know, stay home, you know, I got us. The bills were covered. Everything was good to go. I'd be like, you know what? She'll give me a mandeele. What do you want for dinner? You know what I mean?

Yeah. Getting on for dinner, honey. With the rolls of reverse, then, yeah. Oh, dude. If my girl, if I was at food, my girl, she would go home with me on with me chaps on, a bowtie, strawberries that she's walking in. Yeah, and then Chrisito's going to be like, Dad, what is that? No, they'd be in daycare. Till the nighttime?

Till the nighttime. To the night time? Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, they're doing night daycare. Tim and San Jacinto, it's a sleepover camp. Sleepover care. Tim and San Jacinto. Talk to us.

What would you tell he says he'd stay at home, dad, and he's getting guilty for it. But him and his girl are cool with it. He wants his mom to STFU, mom, respectfully. Ooh, a mom ain't going to do that, and mom has all the right to go and clown her boy. Because he is not a man. Like, I got no respect to this. But I'm in traffic right now, driving to work, mad. And I was like, I got a call in the brown bag and let him know.

That's right. What's he doing right? He's probably laying in bed drinking coffee scrolling on his phone While the rest of us Men are out here Grinding, driving to work

Man, I come in every day Three hours Hour and a half to work Hour and a half back Yeah And I listen to you guys In the morning Hey, shout out to you guys

You guys get me through the day We love you bro Thank you Thank you, Tim. Man, I love you guys I love you guys Hey my wife is Mexican She from Tijuana

I'm Filipino I love Mexican Let's go Thank you. What part of DJ? You got out to you guys. Oh, thank you. Thank you, bro.

Did you ask you part she said? Yeah. I did. Oh, she's in Los Altos. Nice. Beautiful. Okay. Yeah, we have, that's where her family's from.

We have a house out there too. But, yeah, we're out here in the IE now. But, man, back to this dude. This clown. Hey, get up, go to work, Doc. Because I'm sorry, man. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there. I'm sure there's a lot of men out there who just.

just can't respect somebody who is able, body, and willing. I don't even willing. You should be willing if you're an able-bodied man. You should be working, dog. Yeah. That feeling is it. Do you think that that feeling is really how you feel, or maybe that's just too much pressure on you guys to be that way?

No, I mean, you know what? Hey, whatever, man. I'm 40 years old. I was raised by a single mother. I saw what she did and what she had to go through. And when I was young, hey, my pop passed away when I was seven. When at the funeral, they told me as a young kid, and you're the man of the house now. Yeah.

That affected me hard. And I carried that with me to this day. Hey, I haven't been great. You know, I've struggled, but, hey, I've built myself up to the man I am today, and it's because of hard work. Wow. There we go. Pedro, talk to us. You're a stay-at-home dad, bro?

I'm a stay-at-home dad. I've been a stay-at-home dad since my child was two. Two-and-a-half. He is now five. Awesome. I'm currently outside of Mass where my son is at because it goes to private school. Oh, okay. I'm a two of you in the studio right now know who my son is.

Whoa. And you guys will find out who he is. Oh, okay. I'm scared. I'm going to stay at home dad, not by choice because I got sick. I got sick just at the right time because there was nobody to raise my child. And you don't become a man by waking up at five. in the morning and commuting to work because women do the same thing.

Women can be strong. So a man, you can show your child what to be a man at home. I show my son finance. I show my son independence, how to be strong, how to be structured. Whenever I have to build something at home, whether it's pouring concrete, framing something up, my son is there with the power tools. He knows the safety of power tools. And I'm going to, I'm going to name drop right now, but my son,

he makes cakes on the side. So his name is Celazia. Yeah. By Victor's saying, oh, he knows. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So my son knows finance. He knows independence. He knows structure.

Because he sees it from me and he sees it from his mom. His mom goes to work. And she also works after work. She sees people on the side. Oh, damn. I go home. After we drop my son off from school, I go home. And it's hard.

because it's one child. Yeah, it's tough. I do the laundry. I cook. I clean. I scrub that restroom. Like, if I'm a Marine, I got to leave it clean because it's two boys and one woman in the house.

I got to have that house ready because of my wife comes home and is not ready. She's overwhelmed. And it's the same thing with men. When you come home and your wife's just sitting there, not doing anything, you get overwhelmed. Yeah, but my son sees everything. And it's great because I'm growing up with him. and most of us didn't have fathers growing up that were in the picture.

Who was taking you to Little League? Your grandma, your mom, your cousin was walking you to the park. But no, I go with my son to all his sports, all his sports events, and now to all of his events on the weekends when we're pop-ups, we do things together at home. I'm there for him. So the day he grows up, he can point out,

he can point out and say, my dad was always there. Yeah. I remember that my dad with me and pre-K. So it's the struggle. Your son, gets to see it and he grilled structure. And when he grows up, he's going to take that into his home with

his children. I get you, bro. I want to be there for my kids. But again, it wasn't his choice. Yeah, he got sick, right? And he hustles. He does. He does. He has a business. Yeah. You got sick? Like, at work or something or what? Best of Brown Bag. I needed a lot of confidence this morning to come on this radio

station and talk how we're talking. And I just thought of him. Just out of my God, Nick. All right. It's power No six, brown bag mornings. Buenos Diaz. Good morning to you. Hey, we have people with little John tickets. Oh, and you, It's also.

Come on, man. Concrete does this thing, and you need to know that he does this thing, where he cues us to himself. Yes. He knows how we talk, and he's, like, waiting for it. So usually, like, good morning to you, and you, It's also. And he's doing, like, the little fingers, but I didn't do it. And then whenever Angie should say, that's right,

Concrete looks that are like. Like, Like, oh, that's right. Or when he does the homie help line and you say the name and then I look at you and I'm like, I do the name. And you do the name? Because I started learning everybody's cues. Yeah.

I start learning the stuff. It's like, you're like a director. At first, yes, at first I was like, what's going on? What are you doing? What are you guys doing? And then here. And then I'm like, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Yeah, that's so cool.

So what's your cue? Just vibes. Don't do that. That gets me so mad. I'm just vibe. I'm just here for the vibes. No, you know what's crazy. And then as far as today, just kind of going back to what you were saying about people,

people are like, are you guys not going to be on the radio? Are you guys not going to do this? Or are you guys going to pay for it? I think one thing that needs to be understood is that this is media. And when there's been big disasters or something's happening in the world, the first ones there are the media, or the first responders are the ones shedding light on certain things. So that's why we come to work so we can shed light on things and things need to be said.

We got to be your megaphone. And at the same time, it's a responsibility for us to like, If we're going to be the microphone, let's say the info, you know. And so that's why we've been making a point this morning to play the music that I know at least feels some way for me. Like it's feeling. I feel like there's emotions in the things that we're doing, you know, still give you that entertaining, but still be here understanding what it is.

And it was really hard for me to come this morning. I know, bro. Yeah. I couldn't get up. Because you were tired. I was tired. I know. I had to pray.

I sat in my car crying. Like, what do I do? I don't want people to, like, think that we're doing the wrong thing by being here. But I really want to, like, share my heart because there's so many people that I care about. I see it every day. Again, I'm panicked every time my dad comes outside. Yeah. Yeah, me too.

Because I'm a head of cramp. And why you're going to cry, please? No, yore. I would tell you bite me breakfast, but we can't spend today. No. Let's go buy some chorizo right now. We can buy. We can buy.

Then let's go steal it. No. F the system. From a non-Latino-owned business. Chorizo. Yeah, from Trader Joe's. Let's get some soy-rizo, y'all. I'm going to run out.

We are not condoning. No, don't steal. Borrow it. Bring it back. Bring it back. It's a five-finger discount. There you go. That's it.

That we're not doing that either. We're becoming what they say we are. Oh, man. Oh, yeah, that's right. Right, no, no. Take it back what's ours. Look, no. This is my land.

Yeah, God, let's go. I'm with you. It's not called the Angels. It's called Los Angeles, Coaleros. Oh. You definitely can't say that. It's called Los Angeles. People's song Edols.

We didn't cross the border. The border crossed us. See, when he says it. go to a commercial. That's kind of a lot. That's all like, that's all like, this my plan, not yours.

It's my town, not yours. That's my town, not yours. His 70% European is really, is really good. Best of Brown Bag. Time 1. L.A.'s number one for hip-hipa. Good morning to you.

And you, and you too. And you too. And you too. And you're too. I know a lot of going on. What is? Or your dad, whatever.

What did you say? What? Say hi to my dad. How's the name? They come Don Luis. Don Luis, how is he speaks English, right? Yeah. Don Louise.

He's a writer too. He's a writer too. He's a writer too. Bill. We're saying, because since you, because if you're, shh-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h.

Yeah, right? Yes. I love my dad. I thought your mom locking him in. In that Salvadorian Klan. The leg lock. Yeah.

The Salvadorian leg-lunt. Give me a baby. Ew! Yeah. Hi, dad. And hi-to-Kahn's dad. Does your dad listen to it? He listens to it.

Papi, what's doing? What's doing? What to work, Daddy? Want to work, and my mom also and my mother-in-law

Oh yeah shout to your mother-in-law She turns up She chimes in All of that Yeah my dad can't really be On social media But he listens every morning

My mom too And then my mother-in-law She listens to the whole gang My dad's a little writer Like he'll One time he told me that he saw Another radio station like tent up He just passed by

blasting para one oh six that's my daughter and they're like you don't have to gang bang dead he threw up an aviol yeah but he's ready he's ready on site to turn out yeah

shut on my guy but I didn't want to talk to you because I know that today is a heavy day we're just starting the morning off and you know we've been here and we've been having a really good show and I appreciate you for locking in with us whether you are choosing this day

to take part in the general strike or you're not and you and we we love you either way there's different ways to help. Either way, we've been going through them all morning long. And I wanted to tell you about another one that I saw, especially when it happens with the immigration rates that are happening everywhere all over America, is this might be a little bit weird, but it's a question.

Like, I feel like maybe we can ask each other, do you know your neighbors? Do you know your neighbors? Like, literally, do you know your neighbors on your block? No. Yes. No? The ones to the right of me, the ones to the left of me, and kind of the ones in front of me. But the ones on the side of us, yeah, we're really cool.

Because what I'm seeing, especially from what the folks over in Minneapolis are doing, is they kind of created a system. And we're hoping that it can kind of like, at least to bring awareness, should these raids kind of be happening, not just the whistles. Yeah. But they have a text group for their block. And then every other block also does. And then there's a text group for the whole, like, surrounding little city area.

So as soon as it hits, One block, the other one. Like, it's kind of like a network of telling everybody kind of like what they see going on. And it's a little bit more credible because often social media can, it can, we don't know what you're seeing, how credible it is or, you know, where it's coming from. Exactly. But it can give you just that, like that anxiety just the same or that panic. So this is a good way. Think of like, you know, like there's like Citizen app and stuff like that.

But even that, okay, I'm like seeing some stuff that happens on Citizen. And I was like, wow. They report everything on that. And that's the thing about social media is like the other day I saw something like, oh, I just. over here and then I'm like I was about to be posted like eight days ago and I was like okay so it's tough but they they say one thing if you're not doing anything if you if you can't not go to work or can't not shop and all of that maybe it is get to know your neighbor yeah it might be tough because there might be different ideals but especially in in in neighborhoods that are getting

targeted and these ice raids are happening which is many neighborhoods I live close to Ahambra it's been happening every other day over there it's really scary um But if you do that, maybe just having that communication that we don't have. You know, sometimes you're just to yourself. Yeah. I have a homie neighbor and he knows everybody. And he moved in there after we did. And I was like, what the hell?

Really? What usually happens is when there's chisement, all the neighbors come together. So there needs to be more cheeseman. More cheesement to create the group chat to then be aware of everything going down. It's just a good idea. That's a good idea. That's smart. And you know the cheesement.

You know your neighbors. Yeah, but some of them are on the other side. of the political views, so I'm like, I wouldn't trust them. Right. And they're very hardcore about it, too. So I'm like, nah. How hardcore? Like very flags out and everything, too.

Oh, damn. Yeah. So it's like, we don't really trust them, but most of the other neighbors we've known for a while. Okay. So, like, we all kind of report to each other, but then we're just like, you guys. Yeah, we had one neighbor on our block too. Yeah. He bailed.

Oh, yeah? Oh, really? Yeah, he was out of there. Yeah. Did you get along with him? Never spoke to him. Wow. Yeah.

That's what it's with us. We were just like, y'all. A neighbor like tattooing. He probably looked at me and he was like, they're moving in. Yeah. Yeah. I've told you guys about Ms. Jackie. Oh, yeah.

My next to my neighbor, she was that same way. As soon as we moved in, she was just reporting and reporting. And like, I hope you're not bringing that energy until the neighborhood. Jesus. Yeah. Yeah, she said that to my husband. Because we had a baby shower and our black homies were there and our brown homies were there. And our homie named Wero that's bald was there with tattoos and all of that.

You met him. He's a tattoo artist. Yeah. Oh, yes. Yeah. But, like, she's just like, yeah, I hope that's not what you bring. This is not what we paid for. Yeah.

Oh, my God. The tax bracket for you. She's still there. No, she moved out to. She moved out to. Yeah. And then the new homie that lives there, he's the one that knows everyone. I was like, how did we move in before you and you know literally everyone?

Oh, that's something. You know what it is? They take a walk. Yeah. It's the neighbors that take the walks. Because the neighbors I'm meeting, no my dad. Because my dad goes and takes walks and you just say hi and then you get to know them and all of that. Yeah.

So maybe take this moment that if you're, if you feel comfortable enough, get to know your neighbors, we're seeing this kind of work, these types of systems of fast communication, of rapid response, be getting to know your neighbors, getting on that text thread,

and being just looking out for each other, being aware. Yes. And it could be for the chisement too. You could, you could learn the tea. Mm-hmm. Okay.

All right, let's get into Studios, fool. You want to talk about some studies that you got? All right, let's get into some studios full. Stop. Hell of studios. What's nine plus ten? Turn your line?

Look at this studio. Oh, brittitos, men are the best at hide and seek. I'll tell you the best hiding spot for dads and hubbies. Do you, ladies, nowhere? Yes. Oh, yes.

Where? Can I guess? The toilet. Exactly. Yeah. You guys are always... See how much you suck at hiding? We know where you're hiding spots at.

Yeah. Then, like, why do you guys come over there? To check what you're doing. That's our privacy time. It's privacy, dog. It's a toilet to go. poop and do your thing. Yeah, it's away from all you guys.

That's the time I make my picks. Yeah. Oh, that's perfect. My eyes picks. That's perfect. So how many hemorrhoids do each of you have? I have one. Yeah, it's lethal.

You can get hemorrhoids from that. But you're not actually like pooping or pushing. You're just sitting there. Exactly. Yeah, you could. That's gravity. Gravity to where your little hole is exposed. Oh, your balloon nut.

Yes. And that's how you get hemorrhoids. That says a number of surveys have. found that many men intentionally spend time in the bathroom, not just for hygiene, but to also find a moment of quiet and tranquility away from their crazy spouse. It doesn't say that. I made the last part of it. But it's true.

We just, we need our time, dog. Go ahead. That's great. But you know who can't do that? Your girl. Because you know what happens when we're in the restroom? The kids are coming. They're calling.

You're banging on the door. You don't know where the remote's at. The kids are fighting with each other. The study does not say that. But girls don't have the same hiding spot. You know where our hiding spot is? Where? Target.

The mall. If you want your time alone in the toilet, give us credit card. So we can go. She does. She has her own. Yeah? Oh, that's nice. Yeah.

Minimum limit. Minimum limit. Minimum limit. I have to accept every charge. All right. Last thing you were looking up on your phone while you were in the toilet. Price picks. Are you for real?

Are you for real? I was on the Bronx. I'm back 106 page looking at all our reels. So we're liking. Shut up, dude. Be honest. Last time you were in the toilet, what were you looking at? Mine is, what does platonic mean?

Blutonic. Plotonic. Somebody told them, I love you, blotonically. Is that your learning time? I don't know. Like, I just came to my head. What does it actually mean? Somebody said, I love you in a platonic way.

I was like, what does that even mean? So what does it mean? What? It means a close affectionate relationship. Like deep friendship, this is purely spiritual and free from romantic or sexual desire. Yeah. She don't want you. Basically friend zoning.

Yeah, he got curved in friends. He got, he got curved and friends. He said, I love you, butonically. And he's like, what? Do you guys have another spot besides the toilet? Yeah. The car? Work.

I come here to get away. Don't be saying that. Every single day. Nikki's going to listen. I wish the radio show was from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that.

They'll make it. They'll do it. They'll do it. Her con's request. We just want to make you happy. We just want to make you happy. All right. Thank you, studios, full.

Hey, America, stay smart. Hello, studios. Look at this, Studious house full. Best of Brown Bag.
