Starting point is 00:00:00 Before the podcast starts, make sure you like, subscribe to the channel, leave a review, and send the link to a friend while you're at it. The more brown bag, the better. Come on. Happy Wednesday, November 12. It's 1112. Yeah. 1112. No, it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:00:13 Good morning. I'm Leti. I'm here. Greg is here. And she's here. But more importantly, you're here. And we want to know where were you last night when that one Pasadena alert hit. Did you guys get it?
Starting point is 00:00:28 I did. I got it. I thought it was like specific. to me because I used to live in Pasadena? Like near Pasadena? Bro, Vic, you are the main character. It's all about you. No, but I was like, I was like, oh, I must have not changed my address. That's what I was thinking. Oh, yeah, no, no, so many people got it.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Everybody got it. I'm in that area, so I understood why I would get it. But then I'm seeing all over the news that everybody got it was like a test type of alert. You get it? No, I turned my alerts off. So if there's ever an emergency or anything like that Bye, Greg. You don't get any Amber alerts? I turned them off. Yeah, I don't like that negative. Hey, what happened to Greg? Oh, he was just like sleeping the whole time. You know, like, you got the hell of alerts, and everybody else knew to run away. I don't like that negativity of my life. Just get out of here.
Starting point is 00:01:06 It's a warning. Bro, it's Amber Alert. It's like missing children and stuff. It's not an Amber Alert. No, not this one, but I'm saying, like, he turned off all of them. This one specifically like a safety alert test, at least. If you got it, it said, this is a test of the South Pasadena W-E-A system. I believe that's the weather system if someone can check on their computer, you know.
Starting point is 00:01:26 And then it said there's no emergency. I got it while we were watching a movie. me and Jorgeito and one person's phone goes off and I'm like damn this is about to hit all our phones and literally like the first shout out to your cell service you got it way before we did he got it and then about 30 seconds later everybody else's phone went off right but yeah if that happened to you yesterday it was sometime like maybe later afternoon probably like four or five-ish that it went off so yeah if you got it it was a test and it probably wasn't even meant to be sent out it was intended to remain within the test system
Starting point is 00:02:00 but was unintentionally transmitted to the public. Bro, this year has been a year for whoever that intern is because remember during the fires? There was like, hey, your area needs to be evacuated. Oh yeah, sorry. Like during the craziest time
Starting point is 00:02:17 in Los Angeles. We're going to get an alert after that one. My finger slipped. No emergency. Yeah, so if you've ever sent a text by accident, you're not alone. So it has Los Angeles. Yes. The weather, right?
Starting point is 00:02:31 Yeah, it's a wireless emergency alerts. Oh, okay, got you. Nice. All right. Hey, South Pazina, it works. Yeah? To make money move. Let me turn my mic on.
Starting point is 00:02:45 That would help, Lettisa. I know that this holiday season can be a drag for some of us, not just because it's like seasonal depression and all that, but also because your wallet, dole much, all right? If you're not already thinking of like, oh, what is so-and-so going to get for Christmas this year? My friendship.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Yeah. High five. A high five. Hey, yo, when did stocking stuffers get so expensive? Yeah. You keep that? Like, you're going to the whatever store into the little stocking stuff for a section. That issue is like 20 bucks, 20, 30 bucks.
Starting point is 00:03:17 I'm like, what the heck? Especially if it's like mini, like lip glosses, makeup or anything like that. It's like, fool. Like, I'll just. Bro, why are socks costing so much? It used to be a lot cheaper to stuff for stocking. What? Dollar tree.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Shouldn't it be free to do that? that, Vic, you got to pay. What? You got to pay it. Stuck yourself? No. Oh, all right. You make those comments.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Makes me think. That's crazy. Do you hear yourself? Maybe sometimes wait for the story to be over. Thanks. Sometimes we don't hear ourselves. Oh, my God. I don't know what you're doing.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Okay. Back to the story. Yes. Yes. Prices are so high. And we're trying to figure it out. I know you are, but I do have a good news. At least when it comes to Thanksgiving and Christmas this year,
Starting point is 00:04:01 two things that we know we're going to spend a lot on, clearly Thanksgiving feast and Christmas trees, there is something that makes you kind of like breath of fresh air, all right? When it comes to Thanksgiving, whether you're in charge of making it or buying the ingredients or maybe just you want to help out somebody this year because you know like inflation and all of that, there's some really, really good bargains. Like over at Walmart, they're offering a $4 per person package. That's 23 items in their Thanksgiving fees. Wow.
Starting point is 00:04:32 They had it at seven bucks last year, so it's down from there. Target also has a $5 per person bundle. Makes you wonder, like, what's in there, Nonga? Like, what do you get? But if they say 23 items, that feels good. Like, okay. They're saying that you could set aside about 80 bucks for the Thanksgiving dinner that you're ready to prepare, depending on the people in your family.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Okay. Probably got to. Yeah, double it up. Double. Triple maybe. Yeah. How do you say, like, what is it? You know, like, there's a tough.
Starting point is 00:05:01 And there's like octupol. What about for 10 people? You got a deck togonate or something. Then when it comes to Christmas trees, did you know that a lot of our Christmas trees are Canadian grown? Really? I did not know that. And so anything that is outside of the U.S., especially with the tariffs, can get a little scary, right? Wow.
Starting point is 00:05:25 So our trees are from the sixes? Yeah, they're not like us. Yeah, they're not. All right. Well, apparently Christmas trees, they're actually part of like a set, excuse me, like a set category that allows them to be tariff free. So expect your Christmas trees, especially if you were thinking of stuff like that, like how much is everything going to cost? If you actually buy like a real Christmas tree, not an artificial one, boom, you get it at pretty much the same price that you did last year. It's something you can breathe easier about.
Starting point is 00:05:56 That makes me happen. That makes me happen. Random. Just like, hey, by the way, your trees are fine. Out of all things, not the gifts, not the food. Yeah, all the other stuff. But the trees, I guess, it comes into a certain category. I'll look for the exact category in a second.
Starting point is 00:06:10 But, yeah, it's allowing them. I'm good with any loophole, bro. That is true. I'm good with any loophole that I can get during this season. That is true. All right. And look, if you're like us and maybe the Walmart or maybe the target one, you already know, like, they don't get the tamales that I'm looking for.
Starting point is 00:06:24 No. Like in that $5 dollar bundle, that more dollar bundle. Well, guess what? What? Power 106 and Brown Bag mornings on Saturday, November 22nd. That's the weekend before Thanksgiving. We are going to be giving away tamal kids, baby boys. Yes.
Starting point is 00:06:42 We got 106 kits to give away from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at a Vallarta supermarket in Van Nuys. I'm going to give you the address in a second as well. But, you know, we always see this like, look, it's the holiday season. Yeah, there's turkey drives. incredible work that we're doing to get that out to the community. But I also know, like in my household, we do tamales too. And it would be nice to get a little help there with the masa, with the oranges, yeah, with
Starting point is 00:07:08 the ojas, and with the chile and stuff like that to create, to make everything and put it all together. So thank you so much to Vallata supermarkets. We are able to give away 106 kits for free, okay? It's going to be at the Van Nuys Veyerta. I'm going to give you the address right now if you want to jot it down. Remember it take a picture. I don't give a M. It's a movie reference.
Starting point is 00:07:29 1-6040. 1-6-0-40 Sherman Way in Van Nuys. You can Google the Vallarta supermarket in Van Nuys. We're going to be out there November 22nd from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. And we're going to be hooking you up with free kids. Yeah. That's tight. I love that.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Who makes it the malles in your guys' house? In my house, usually, like, the girls. So, like, all the girls will come together, like, the nieces and aunts, and they'll work on it together. So they like it a lot. And you pass by like, hey, what's up? Yeah, I'm just like, I'm going to take this right here.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Take this one and then they get super mad. Thank you. Of course. Thanks for that. All right. Hey, they're coming for our reading scores again, California. Aye. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Reading. Yeah, reading or comprehension, all that stuff. Yeah. They did a, they did a survey of the most mispronounced word per state. So essentially, as Californians, what do you think is the most mispronounced word? word out here. Pizza and pizza? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:30 What do you guys think? Los Felis? I always think like people say, how do you say Los Felis the right way? And I'm thinking Los Felis, Los Felis, I don't know, I'm getting it wrong. One of them is wrong. Spaghetti? Spaghetti. Spaghetti is the most mispronounce word.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Oh yeah, like my kids, they would say Pesgetti. Really? Yeah, before when they were learning to talk. My kids and Greg. Anyone else? Yeah. Anybody else? I let me.
Starting point is 00:08:55 I mispronounced. Angie, but like, what you think, like, everybody out here gets mispronounced? Cecil. I say, oh. Angie. Angie says the Cecil Hotel instead of Cecil Hotel. What's that big? Worcesters sauce.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Yes. I think that's a really good word. I know which one. I'm sure I said it right every time. But I feel we don't need it out here. Like that. What's up, Angie? The governor.
Starting point is 00:09:21 What's his name? Arnold. Yep. Cajeter. I cannot say it. Yeah. No, that's not. Maybe it would win like a decade ago at you.
Starting point is 00:09:30 No. Okay, but you're on to something because the most mispronounced word in California isn't even a word. It's a name. Oh, yeah. How do you guys say the name of this singer? What's your name? Calliuchis. Caliuchis.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Yes, good job. Yeah. Apparently, though, according to the survey, Calliuchis is the most mispronounced word in California. In all of California? In all of California. Why? And then it, look, he makes me feel so basic. Like, we couldn't get baby girls' name right.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Yeah. And other places, they got really, really hard words wrong. Like, I don't even know how to, me personally, I don't know how to pronounce the word in New York. That's, it's, it's a, Tziki. Tziki. It's a sauce that pairs well with Giro over there. And I'm like, yeah, that's a Worcester is in Alabama and North Dakota. Oh, wow, Victor.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Yeah, there's really tough words out there. I'm like, we got, we got Caliuchis. But we're in California. How are we getting Cali, we're getting it wrong. We're getting it wrong. I'm even thinking of the name right now, like looking at it, how do you even pronounce it wrong? It's super easy to pronounce, right? I don't know, that's the word.
Starting point is 00:10:43 And that's what happens when you don't vote. Other people vote for you. I bet you it's one or two people that set, put this in that survey. Like, yeah, I'll take the survey. And now all of a sudden, California don't know how to say Caliucci's name. Yeah, oh, I don't know who is this, uh, Calliucci's name. Uchis. Maybe they were saying like
Starting point is 00:11:02 Kali Okis. Maybe. I don't know. The only other place that I'm like, okay, we could have got that one. Like we would have got that one right. Georgia, apparently, according to this survey,
Starting point is 00:11:13 Georgia's most mispronounced word is Cizza. Cizza? Cizza. Like Cizza. Like Cizzer? Yeah. And I could get it.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Like, maybe like you don't know if Zah, the S is silence. Yeah. I see that. You know? Zah. Say like Sia. Zah.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Meanyase is the most mispringers. pronounced word in Wyoming and I thought like hey we would get me you know I thought I thought I thought that was the mannays capital of the world Wyoming Nebraska has baloney wrong baloney because it's spelled balones oh bolonese oh the bolonais oh bolonaise oh boom I get it okay I get it bolonaise in the polo lans all right well see we're all messed up in our words all right take those surveys bro get that 25 books that they gave you back so that we're not up here looking like national horror like hey they don't know how to say caliuchis And now the weather

Lastly, we scraped the bumper to the city of Compton, where I once got hit up and all I heard was, stop him. Then I woke up to a high of seven. degrees. That's pretty good. Hey, that is cool. That's pretty bad. And Compton was once known as a Hub City. Did you guys know that?
Starting point is 00:13:06 Not because of the rap legacy, but it's because literally the geographic center of Los Angeles, anywhere from Compton is only 20 to 30 minutes away in the Los Angeles area. So that's what I'd be telling the truth when they're like, yeah, it doesn't be taking me 20 minutes. Yeah, from Hub City. Right. So there it is. Guys, check it out. Zuma, you'll be 68.

Starting point is 00:14:08 Every morning. Every day. The weather with concrete. Your boy, concrete. Power 106. Brownback. All right. Check this out, homie.
Starting point is 00:14:13 You need a homie or need some help. We need your help. We need a line. I mean, phone line. We've got you for the homie help line. Abby needs our help. Abby. Abby hit us up and said, hey, Brownback.
Starting point is 00:14:26 My name is Abby. and my husband and I just had our first baby, Mateo. Congrats. And my Suegna and my Suegra has been staying with us to help. She's been great, but the other night I walked into the nursery and found her rocking Matteo to sleep with her shirt off. All I saw was her granny bra. That's weird. It was so weird.
Starting point is 00:14:50 My heart started racing because I'm thinking, woman, who do you think you are? My mother would never, Brown, Brown, Beard. bag. She said, I told my husband what happened and he told me his mom did that with his sister kids, two, sisters kids too. And that's her way of bonding with her grandbabies. Like skin to skin maybe? Okay. Yeah. She said this whole thing is really bugging me. I haven't said anything to her yet, but I can't shake how uncomfortable it made me feel. And to make things weirder, she keeps saying how much Matteo reminds her of her little boy. She'll hold him and go, he's just like his daddy when he was a baby same little face same smell she says it all the time with this dreamy look in her eyes like she's reliving raising her son all over again i don't know if it's just me but it's giving delulu grandma vibes oh my gosh abby
Starting point is 00:15:40 okay yeah she said brownback am i overreacting or is my suegra out of line for doing skin to skin with my baby The skin-to-skin part is really weird, but the part where she's saying that the grandma's holding the baby and saying, like, you're just like your daddy. That's normal. Yeah, that's normal. That's normal. Yeah. I'm not with you on that one. Like, I can't wait until I have grandchildren.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Because, okay, so I'm in my little delus stage. Yes, we're delusional. We're mothers. Okay. We got to be. Something happens to our brains. We got all these weird toxins in there, okay? And clearly they're not babies anymore.
Starting point is 00:16:21 But I'm like, the next time I see a baby that looks like this. It's going to be when they have babies. And it just gave me like, oh, this little kid. I can't wait. But I don't know. I don't think anything of this is crazy. None of it? None of it.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Not the skit to skis. No. I think that's weird. Because that is a bonding thing. They put you, and usually it's the parents. Yes. I totally get it. Like I even got upset when our youngest Luisito, when he was emergency C-section because
Starting point is 00:16:46 there was some stuff going on. And instead of giving him to me, they gave him to dad because they had to, like, stitch me back up kids. And when they rolled me into like the recovery room, there was my husband with his shirt off and Luisito like on his chest. And I'm like, you took my moment. Like that was really my moment. I remember David's eyes, my oldest. I remember Jorgeito's eyes when they did skin to skin.
Starting point is 00:17:13 It's such a bonding moment. They need to be, they need to feel you. Like in nature, they need to feel that. Right. And with Lucito, I don't have that little memory. To me, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I want me getting my feelings. I'm sorry to make it about me, but I'm sorry, but right now it's going to be.
Starting point is 00:17:26 So I feel like with that, it makes pregnancy worth it to me. Because pregnancy is hard and delivery is hard. I bet. But I think like the cherry on top to all of that was that I got those moments with the boys when they're skin to skin on me. And I'm laying down and they're just born. And I didn't have that with Luis Jorge had that. All right. You're going to have that like seconds later.
Starting point is 00:17:47 No, you are, you are. And it's going to be great. But I guess there was just that moment in the process that like I can, I can snap into it right now. You know how in that one show where the girl just, where Raven Simone, she just looks out. Like, I do that and I can go back in time and see David's face. I can see Jorge's face and I can't see Luis's face like that.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Dang. It's just blocked from my memories because Jorge has it. But I guess, my bad. My bad for venting bros. No, I get it. It's okay. But it's hard for us dads too, you know? No, it is.
Starting point is 00:18:19 I like that he. No, you mean pregnancy? Yeah. No, Victor. I'm not even pregnant, but don't say that. It's hard. You get yelled at extra. You got to go get jacking box all late because she got pregnancy cravings. It's a lot.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Well, yeah, because it's your guys' fault. Yeah. Okay, but this is beyond the parents now. The grandma, and I'm assuming because there's other kids in the family and how he mentioned Abby's husband mentioned to her, hey, she's done this with my sister's kids. This is might be, often when we
Starting point is 00:18:50 have our first kid especially, kids period. We rely on the elders in our family, especially the elder mothers. They help with taking the bath for the first bath or like, oh, when you first come home and all of that. And it's really nice to have that helping hand from someone with the experience, especially if it's your first time. Because lo-key, this is new territory. And her just seeing that skin-to-skin with abolita just hit her different. Yeah. You know? She says, my mom would never, but also your mom's not there helping. Yeah. That is true. Oh, you're right. This is also like a more helpful woman in seems. Yeah. And she's saying my mom would never, but would she also be upset if her mom did?
Starting point is 00:19:28 Oh, that's a question too, because it's like, if she looks at it like, oh, that's just my mom, you know, doing that. And it doesn't seem weird to her, but to this lady, the grandma, that's just her son's kid. She doesn't see it as like, as like a difference between her daughter's kid and her son's kid. It's just my grandchild. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I do. I see that too. Yeah. To my future noiras. You're going to be doing that? I'll wear a sports bra. We're a sports bra.
Starting point is 00:19:54 I just don't get cremita. So I say like maybe Swatta has like a rack on her. She just didn't want to see that. Well, she did say like granny bra. She did say Granny bra. Grandma has it. I don't know why I pictured them kind of out there too. What?
Starting point is 00:20:06 In my mind. Your idea, abelita has a rack. Super poiny though. The poignant bro? The poignant? I saw that too. I saw that too. It has like lace too.
Starting point is 00:20:14 It's like a tattery. I'll go. It's my grandma side now. Hey, chill out. I know. But this could also, Abby, this could also be a part of low-key. You just had a baby and you're going through the motions of like having to release all these hormones that you once had. You're getting right back to your center, you know, often that they talk about postpartum depression.
Starting point is 00:20:37 That's real. You know, your thoughts are all all over the place. So we are, of course, the space that you chose to release them. I am so thankful. Thank you, Abby. How would we help Abby? Abby is kind of like tripping out like should she say something to her
Starting point is 00:20:52 Suegra because she's catching her Suegra doing skin to skin with her baby and it's like that's weird like that's something that they have you do as a parent is the Sueira overstepping by doing this. Also she seems to be catching the Suegra be like no
Starting point is 00:21:08 like this is like this is just like my son all over again and it's like lady snap out of it so she feels like I don't know maybe boundaries are crossed that's how she feels she feels is swayed out of line or maybe should Abby appreciate it. Should she appreciate it or she confront what's going on? All right. So we're going to go to the phone lines and help out Abby. Let's go to April in Bell Gardens. April, when does diaz, April?
Starting point is 00:21:34 Hey, good morning, everybody. What's April? Hi, April. So this is definitely a topic for me. I work with mommies who just have babies and I help them with the whole bonding process. Oh. So definitely, mom, I mean, overreacting, yes, definitely. Or maybe she's just not aware that bonding is not just for parents. This is for every caregiver that's in the baby's life. What?
Starting point is 00:21:59 So what bonding does skin to skin, what grandma does is baby, you know, you can regulate the body temperature. It helps them recognize their voice. It helps them feel more calm, feel more secure. But this is someone that's going to be. care of baby, skin to skin is definitely recommended. However, if mommy does not feel comfortable, Mommy's a lot to say that.
Starting point is 00:22:23 There's other methods of bonding. You know, maybe she wants to voice that. But if mommy's not aware of it, this is definitely a way for grandma to bond with baby as well. Thank you, April. Because you know what, Abby's texting us right now, and she did mention that, I guess it tripped her out too, that after talking to the suagra about it,
Starting point is 00:22:40 the suegra's like, yeah, every time you take a nap, I do this to bond with the baby while you're still. sleeping and she also feels this baby is about two and a half months. Yeah. And that she also feels like the baby likes the swagger more, like goes to her. Yeah, so then maybe mommy would want to do that more often as well. Mm-hmm. You see, so then mommy, like you said, you know, yes, so when the baby is looking for the, you know, to feed, they're rooting, right?
Starting point is 00:23:08 So they're looking for it. So maybe when mommy does it, she can do it, you know, without anything on. Yeah. That's more a little bit more intimate for mommy and baby. Yeah. But as far as, like, grandma, yeah, the way she was doing it, that's, that's perfect because that baby's not going to be rooting for anything, right? The baby's not looking for two feet or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:23:28 But like I said, if mommy's not comfortable, right? Like, if this is like a new idea for her, if she's not comfortable, she's a lot to say, yeah, no, let's send another way for you to bond with baby. But if she already feels like, hey, babies, you know, prefers, you know, to be with grandma, then maybe she may want to start doing this more. more often with herbie. Yeah. Like find more moments to do it.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Like have a skin to skin off. Yeah. Definitely. No, definitely. And it's an idea for grandparents to be doing it, but it is something that's recommended. And it just helps the baby. It helps baby feel secure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Like I said, you know, regularly spotting temperature and recognize that grandparent more. And that's why baby likes it because, you know, grandma's doing it. That's not going to confuse the baby. Like doing skin to skin with the grandma and the mom. mom like it's not going to be like the baby you don't know only my mom's supposed no it won't but the baby's it's bad don't let's not confuse baby no because it's no not at the dad too and they're caregiver like yeah definitely nothing nothing can replace the love and the bond that a mom can provide or a father right this is totally different you know think about it when baby's seating this is the moment where
Starting point is 00:24:37 mom gets to bond as well talking soothing making eye to eye contact um all of that you know even infant massaging, I do infant massaging too, I teach it. So that's even when you massage your baby. You massage from head to toe, front and back. Must be nice. And it's a way of bonding, infant massage. Yeah. Thank you so much, April.
Starting point is 00:24:58 I appreciate that. Thank you for your insight. Definitely. I hope I helped Mommy. Let's go. You did. You too, mamacita. Yeah, like Loki, L'Hore did skin to skin, well, skin to hair, with Luicito.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Right? But Luisito wasn't looking to latch on O'Hore. Mommy's tasting a little tip right here. They just know like their heartbeat. It's the heartbeat part. Yeah. Okay. And all of that.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Like, and Loki, since that baby was in your belly, that baby's tuned into your voice. That baby's tuned into your heartbeat. That's your breathing all of that. Like it's a whole connection that can't be lost. But I do think there's something to say. Like if she feels like like the baby is more attached to Suegra, it could also be a feeling.
Starting point is 00:25:43 It could also just like you're going through a lot of feelings right now. Oh, I'm like it could be like a postpartum like insecurity. And it's not it's not your bad. It's totally valid. Yeah. Or like maybe I'm not doing. I know like you're very sleepy when you're after and you need that help. But you can also feel guilty about sleeping and then not being there for your baby.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Then you get mad at yourself for not being there. And then sad that you're mad after feeling guilty. Oh my God. No, that's what postpartum is. It's a jumble of emotion. Even as a new dad, like I felt so. insecure about not knowing so many things. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:26:17 Like I was like, dang, I don't know how to burp them right. Like I'm a failure. Like you just start thinking, you know, getting in your head about stuff. Well, you were patting his head to burp him. So don't know what she's doing that. You should have learned. This is my way. Mi-ho.
Starting point is 00:26:28 My way or the highway. And it's always a learning. Even as our kids are older, it's like, dang, I didn't know that. Yeah. What? Still try to pat him in the head to burpum. It doesn't work. You had nine months to be practicing and learning all that big.
Starting point is 00:26:40 You should feel bad. I should have read the books. Yeah, you had all those nine months. I was broke. I was focused on other stuff. You're fine, bro. At one point, we were cavemen. There were no books.
Starting point is 00:26:50 True. You know, you just got to go off instinct. Angie. All right. A little rock. When we were in our caves. Mariah in La Cresena. Mariah.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Hi, Mariah. We're talking to Abby. Abby hit us up because she has a baby about two and a half months old. Suegras helping out. And, you know, she's been great, she says. But the other night, when Abby woke up, she saw that Suegra was skin to skinning with her baby. She had a bra on a granny bra on a granny bra. but Abby's heart started racing like what the heck my mom wouldn't even do is what are you doing lady
Starting point is 00:27:18 yes uh and the grandmother's like this we're bonding like it's skin to skin the baby needs this which you know what the baby needs right and then she's also sensing that grandma's always like oh yeah he's just like his dad when he was young and just getting very like like what what abby feels is like i feel like my sweater is getting delude like this is not her kid reincarnated but i don't know there's some boundary issues she's feeling she's going through a lot right now Mariah and, like, Christina, she is wondering, should she tell her, Swahra, she's out of line? Or should she just kind of, like, let things flow? Maybe it is that she, uh, Swagra knows better or, like, if she's getting taught something as a first time mom.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Mariah? Um, okay, good morning. So, hi. So my mother-in-law is, she still to this day has sometimes a boundary issue. Um, so when my kids were, I have two kids. And so when my daughter was born, I kind of already, like, assumed that she was going to, like, go in there and try and take the baby and, like, do all these things. And I was probably just, like, my brain, you know, these different things going on. So I was just preemptively thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:28:28 So I told my husband, I kind of came up with this rule. I was, like, the first 24 hours. I don't want anybody to hold the baby except for me and you. I want that, like, skin-to-skin contact. I know it's probably, like, really harsh. But I just, I know how she is. I know how to handle her. so I was like, no, no one's going to hold baby.
Starting point is 00:28:45 How did you tell her? Did you have your men tell her? So I didn't tell her the first time with my daughter. I didn't tell her until she showed up to the hospital and was like, oh, I want to hold the baby. And then my husband kind of looked at me and he was like, actually, we're not having anybody hold the baby. Oh, what? Hold that, Mariah. Hold that, hold on, hold on, hold on, wait.
Starting point is 00:29:06 K-W-R-FM-H-D-1, Los Angeles, is Paro 106, L.A's number one for hip-hop. we got Mariah on the phone Mariah so mean I know like everyone's excited to see the baby I know I'm sorry but like I know how she
Starting point is 00:29:22 and I just I just needed that I needed that moment like how you were talking about a little while ago like I just needed that moment and if something like did go wrong like I had to have an emergency something happened then
Starting point is 00:29:31 I wanted my husband to at least have that moment not like somebody that you know I know it sounds selfish I just wanted one of us like we made this baby like we deserve to have this moment with her I get it. I get you guys just got to respect that. But that's your, that's your mother-in-law. That's not your mother.
Starting point is 00:29:48 No. So how about your mother? Does she, does she get different treatment than mother-in-law? Or was it all across the board? So my mom actually passed away before she met my children. So sorry. It's okay. No, no, no. But it would have been, unfortunately, it would have been the same thing because what's fair is fair. And even though it's my mom, I would have liked her to hold the baby. But it was fair. Like, even when my sister came, even when my sister came, even when my
Starting point is 00:30:10 dad came like nobody held the baby except for us both sides of the family both sides of the family yeah yeah you know what you want and you're gonna make sure you get it right right is like exactly yes and she is she does take care of my kids quite a bit but she understood like afterwards like after like the first week um she started coming over and the skin the skin i don't know that's kind i'm a nurse also and i never really heard like everybody does skin to skin well what kind of nurse are you i work in pediatric oh you're pediatric oh okay okay yeah yeah So it's you versus the other nerves. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:43 No, I think that's fine. She probably knows more than I do. She works with that department. I never heard of it, but it is. I never heard of it. I never heard of that. She helps families. She helps families.
Starting point is 00:30:55 I connect. Yeah. Maybe you need that. Yeah. That's good. Like, thank you. But yeah. So, no, I just, even now when she takes care of the kids,
Starting point is 00:31:02 after like the first week, I let her just come and do whatever it is that she wants to do with them and hang out with them and bond with them. And she's super close with both of them. She says that they're her favorite of all her grandkids. Like she's super close. It's just, you know, I just, she might just be, you know, thinking about the baby. Yeah, she just has to put boundaries up so that she feels healthy moving forward. Otherwise, she's going to drive herself crazy nitpicking at every little thing.
Starting point is 00:31:25 Yeah. And you being a nurse, you have your own teachings and your own experience, too. You know, often they even say, like, people kissing the baby is not a good thing. That actually gives the baby, like, sicknesses and bacteria that it never had, right? But everybody goes to kiss the baby. And I think if imagine you were to tell your grandma or your mom or your sister, hey, you can't kiss the baby, it feels disrespectful. But it's like, no, you're being protective. So you got to weigh them out.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Yes, exactly. You have to stay strong and put the, I know it's hard. It was hard for me too. But for my mother-in-law, you just, you got to stay strong and put those boundaries up. And the relationship will get better from there. Oh, my God. What happened when you told her, like, mom, your husband's like, you can't hold the baby. Did she, like, walk out?
Starting point is 00:32:09 She was very mad. No, she was mad. I don't even know why you had me come then. Oh, that's real. That's real. That's real. All right. Cool.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Yeah. You should have just sent her a photo then, Mariah. Yeah. Made me waste my time and come here. You sign in. Yeah. You created drama, huh? I had to put a sticker on my shirt.
Starting point is 00:32:27 Yeah, but we already knew it was going to happen. Like, she started to, oh, text, I tell. No, no, no. And my husband's like, you need to calm down. That's it. It is what it is. Yeah. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:32:36 You can take pictures of me holding the baby. Mariah Mariah That's Mariah I respect it I respect that I would have sent AI photos
Starting point is 00:32:44 I'm like Look this is as close I got to the baby Wow Wow Wow All right We're talking about our home girl
Starting point is 00:32:52 Abby Abby Abby hit us up She's a new mom Yeah she is You know her baby's about Two and a half Months old And she's having a little issue
Starting point is 00:33:00 With grandma She had walked in After taking a nap And saw that grandma Had the baby Skin to Skin Like she was wearing a granny bra. So it wasn't like all out, Greg, chill.
Starting point is 00:33:12 So granny knockers out. No, no, no, no, Greg, you make it creepy. And she's like, it just made her really nervous. She talked about how her heart was racing, like, what's going on? And maybe there's a part of, like, feeling like you're missing the moments with your kid when you talk, knock out. Your body needs to rest, though, by the way. Mama see that. Two and a half months is still, your body's still recouping.
Starting point is 00:33:29 But she, she asked the grandma, what are you doing? And she's like, yeah, the baby needs this. She's also noticing, like, man, the baby does really love the grandma. Like she calms she calms down with her faster than she calms down with me. Like I feel like I'm getting, or the baby does, I feel like I'm getting left out. Plus, grandma's like, oh yeah, this is just like his dad when he was a little baby. That's normal. That's normal.
Starting point is 00:33:52 And she just feels like, is she to Lulu? Is she crossing boundary? Should I say something? Should I do something? Oh, she's being a hater. Put arsenic in her tea. I'm kidding. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Some laxative in her chocolate milk. Your chocolate milk. Some eye drops in her water Don't do that Don't do that I saw it in a movie How does it? Victoria
Starting point is 00:34:14 Victoria in Las Vegas What's up Vicki? Hi How are you guys Hi Victoria Victoria talk to us What would you tell Abby? Well I would tell her
Starting point is 00:34:25 That the best thing she can do Is like she said I already tell her Theante husband And really I don't know set the boundary of having your in-laws not just seeing anything that she's not comfortable with.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Yeah. My son would take my son when he was a baby to live with them. We were living with them. We had him on her with like a paint top and just skin to skin. And I was kind of like, oh, that's, I think if my mom would do that, I would feel okay with it. so I just let it go. And yeah, postpartum hits you and exactly what was going on that you were saying. Like, postpartum hits you and you go crazy and you're jealous and, but it goes away. And she's not crazy for thinking like that either.
Starting point is 00:35:30 Yeah, those thoughts are perfectly normal. As weird as they are, they're normal. And you just got to give yourself grace. Your brain is going through changes. Your body is too. And like, it is something though. I think she's feeling, she's going to her husband. been about it and he's saying girl he she did this with my sister yeah so there's also like the
Starting point is 00:35:49 the feeling of like oh now they're shutting me up yeah yeah oh that's now i can't even raise my own kid oh dramatic is that dramatic you haven't been there now i'm not gonna pick a school yeah no who's he gonna call mom no baby's gonna call mom i get it i get it because when you're During your period and you have like emotions, yeah, you're getting your feelings? For no reason. No reason. Oh my God. Abby, I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:36:16 She's not. Those are dramatic jumps. No, who knows? What if the mom takes over the place of Abby? Why would she do that? Why would she do that? The babies are I think the grandma is its mom now and is never going to be able to raise it and take it to school. I'm just saying those thoughts to have those thoughts are normal.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Uh-huh. But you just got to check those thoughts. Oh, like that baby loves you. Looks like you. acts like you like that you guys had it like all you just have to it's a it's constant like readjusting your thoughts would you love our baby it feels a worm no it's not those thoughts no no no weird so weird all right uh let's go to it hannah in sanna monica hannah hannah we're talking to abby abby feels weird because her newborn is really attached to
Starting point is 00:37:01 her swag got her swag got her swag got just skin to skin with a newborn well she wears like a bra while she's doing it but uh abby feels weird about that like what that's the hell lady who do you think you are me uh and she also feels like the swagger's a little bit delusional keeps talking about how this baby looks just like her son and so sweet and so nice and uh the swire says you know what this is my way to bond with him and she's also noticing that the baby does get more calm around the suegra and she's feeling like what the hell like am i getting replaced yeah uh is something happening what should abby do what should abby do hannah i think abby should just set her boundaries with every family member, including the husband, because she isn't a mom.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Well, because the husband did bring up, well, this is something that the mom did with my sister. I'm kind of dismissing it. And I'm a new mom as well. Oh. I have a 16-month-old baby. Congratulations. I'm 21. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 00:37:57 I'm 21, so I am really young. Oh, you are. But I did not let anybody in my family or in my, like, a partner. family, see my baby for the first, I think, two months. Two months. Not even see them? That's, it's understandable. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:15 You don't want the baby to get sick, catch everybody's stuff. Yes, and I had this, I didn't want to have this guilt in my mind that if the baby they get sick, it was because they seemed like the, like, family members. I just wanted to know this was just something that happened. Yeah, you don't want to put blame on them. You already hate them, so it's, like, going to be really easy to put blame on them. That's true. I hate them.
Starting point is 00:38:37 I just, like, wanted. I know you hate them. I know you hate them. We know. You told the phone screener. No. Postpartum was really hard for me, though. I feel like that's what, like, kind of messed up.
Starting point is 00:38:50 But I will tell, I will give the advice of setting your boundaries and you're not wrong at all. There's no wrong answer. And you are your advocate for your baby. There you go. The baby doesn't have a voice. Did you even let the dad hold the baby? Yes. See, Gregorio.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Yes. Duh. Who was the second person able to hold the baby? The dad, obviously. Yeah, after him. And then, like, my mom. Why not his mom? Why not his mom?
Starting point is 00:39:22 You hate her? Because I lived in the Empire, and they lived in, like, West Lake, L.A. Oh, they're so far. Sure. It was, yeah. She just hates them. No, Hannah, you're setting your boundaries. You were going through a lot, and, like,
Starting point is 00:39:36 Yeah, that's totally fine. How you protect your baby is all you're right. Yeah. All you're right. Like, look, you when I think about it. Like, I get the mom in Bubble Boy, bro. What? Like, I get her.
Starting point is 00:39:48 And that's her choice. Like, Brian and it is his life and, like, he should be able to, like, be like, can I go outside? But long story, short, and Bubble Boy, the mom doesn't want him to get sick or, like, the world to know him, so she puts him in a bubble. And then he grows up, the hyena has, like, a disease. Probably muchizers. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Yeah. I wonder if, like, see, I think the risk. you run with like, okay, I totally understand the protecting the kid. But it's like, then you kind of take moments and like bonding away from the other family members. Like, that kid might grow up and not be really close to his family. Yeah, the hype of having the kid is gone. Like, you get me? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:21 It just could happen. But like, what makes you think you deserve the moment with my kid as a mom? Like, like, lo-key, there's so many thoughts going through my head. One of it, definitely couldn't meet me. I'm talking from outside of my pocket. But, like, I for sure it would let anyone, like, hold me. Yeah, that's what I'm saying? But like what makes you think that you have just because what you think or like, do you wash your hands every day?
Starting point is 00:40:40 You don't know that. Do you like, do you just take a shower? Are you, or did you even take a shower today? Yeah. Like all of those things. Like, I don't know what your way of life is. You know what I'm saying? And then on the other side is like you, you don't like, no, no, legit.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Yeah. Like the nurses that are in the hospital, yes, they touch your baby, move the baby around all that. You won't let the suiara. But at the same time, it was a swagger like keeping up to healthy standards, health standards. Okay. You just want to protect that baby. I get it. I get that part.
Starting point is 00:41:08 I'll tell you right. Also, protecting the baby can do the baby wrong because you keep it locked up inside so much at the first inkling of outside or dirt. Boom. It's done because they didn't build up immunity. Yeah. Get the hype over with. No, but that's what breast milk is for too. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:41:23 The kid just dropped. Everybody wants to see it. The kid just drops. Yeah. Yeah, there's pictures. But you don't have the right to my kid. You have when I'm ready, when I'm ready. We just want to be a part of the rollout.
Starting point is 00:41:33 Yeah. As a baby. All right, last caller. Let's go to Jose and Compton. It's good to get a guy's perspective. Jose, you said you and your wife are going through a similar situation as Abby. Abby feels a little bit overweight towards her mother-in-law because her mother-in-law is, like, doing skin to skin with her baby. Granted, she has a brawn, but it's like, why is my baby, like, next to you all the time?
Starting point is 00:41:54 And she's like, yeah, when you're sleeping, I do this to calm him because clearly I don't want to wake you. I want to make sure you're good. You get your rest that you deserve. But now she's seeing that the baby, like, gets super calm around, Aweilita. Like, it's like, that's my kid, not yours, you know? And also, I would just kind of like, yeah, this is just like my son when he was little. And she just feels like, I brought it up to my husband. He said, yeah, this is how, like, she's been like that with even our sister's kids.
Starting point is 00:42:18 She knows better. She's a mom. Like, she's an elder. Yeah. And just trust her. So she just feels so many ways about it. Is she wrong, though? Jose and Compton, let us know.
Starting point is 00:42:27 What do you think? Hi. Hi. Hi, good morning, Brownback. What's up, bro. So, I mean, I'm kind of on the, the, the, husband's perspective. Me and my wife had a son.
Starting point is 00:42:37 He's four now. But when my son was born, we used to live with my parents still. My mom obviously helped my older sister raise her two kids. She paid them and fed them. They were with my mom. They thought my mom was their mom for like the longest time. My sister worked all the time. So the kids were from sunrise or something with my mom.
Starting point is 00:43:00 So I know my mom knows how to raise kids. She raised me. She raised me. I'm a pretty outstanding individual, you admit. I'm not trying to my own horn or nothing like that. There you go. No, do that. Come on.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Do it. Yeah. When my son was born, my mom kind of, she would, hey, I want to feed the baby or I want to shower the baby or like, you. And I'm taking a nap or shit. But hey, leave me to me and go to the store. And so I'm fine. Like, I can wait to my wife gets home or whatever. It's just and that.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Like, we got it. Don't worry about it. When I need help, I'll ask you for it. Yeah. I don't, let me, I got this. Yeah. If I need help, I'll let you know Ingrato, Jose
Starting point is 00:43:36 She's just trying to give you your moment To be like, hey, you guys go ahead Go bond, you and your wife I got the kids, I'm here to help And you're like, Mom, if I need help I'll ask you. I'm a man, mom. And I got to talk
Starting point is 00:43:52 I give me my sister's like, hey, she's just trying to help you This is and I said it too But let my mom let my wife be a mom You know, let her do her things Damn, you're the one that chooses wife or family, but everyone says to do that. Yeah. But here you are doing it.
Starting point is 00:44:05 I like it, Jose. I'm like in it. Go, go, go, go. Come on. Like, hey, my wife didn't like, I got out social media a while ago. It doesn't bring anything good to me, you know, just. I never, I'm too busy all the best in here.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Hey, hello, hello. All right, Jose, so your wife didn't want the family around? No, I know. My wife is not bad. I think one of the biggest issues was, like, posting pictures of my son online. like yeah we did the whole quarantine and now we didn't let nobody come over and touch him for her 40 days yeah yeah and then once he got a little bit else but now it's free range everybody yeah he's four i hope so yeah who posted him and got you guys mad
Starting point is 00:44:48 i think i think it was my mom on facebook or something like yeah and it wasn't even so much that it was a picture anything like that but my wife just like I haven't even posted them online and this is not why does she get to post them first oh it was all like we were still in the hospital
Starting point is 00:45:10 and the baby was already at the internet oh okay it was just like no no yeah so now even now like I'm not saying I'm fucking calmato sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry I'm like super important
Starting point is 00:45:26 but I keep to myself I don't put my I don't put my Postal my business on social media. Well, yeah, that's a you thing. That's a you thing. But, like, I would assume your mom wants to show off her grandbabies. Grandma ruled her all out. She leaked the album early.
Starting point is 00:45:39 She leaked the album early. Exactly. And that had to be a combo, huh? You probably had to tell all of them that they can't post the kid? Yep. And not just my mom on my shit and everybody. And there's still the same road to this day. Like, you can take pictures of them.
Starting point is 00:45:53 Just make sure he's not a full frontal, like, picture of them and something like that. Like, candid shots and something like that. Just something like that. Candid shots? Candid shots? The baby's face is online. Yeah, just, yeah, just, you have me? His face is copyright.
Starting point is 00:46:06 I tell the father. Copyright. Only get a side profile. We got to respect it. We got to respect it. We got to respect it. I don't post my son. Like, you come to my house.
Starting point is 00:46:16 There's pictures of us everywhere. Everywhere we go. We go to visit a man. We go to parties all the time. We got to do this and that. But I have all those pictures. But I don't post them. Do you let your mom have a house to see?
Starting point is 00:46:26 Do you let your mom have? a bond besides that because I'm wondering if that makes her feel like you guys aren't allowing me to be a grandma because also in your note it said that your girlfriend's mom saw the baby before or seized the baby more than your mom does. Yeah. Yeah. So some things happen. Yeah, people have to, yeah, we all have to go up and yeah, my wife moved out. But we moved out next. I'm literally in my sight of neighbors. Okay. So like, so in the morning I get up and My son gets up, he said, oh, I'm going to go to Abolah's house. Yeah, you're going to go to Abolasa. Boy, I'm watching when I go to work.
Starting point is 00:47:01 So he, most of the time, he's at my, my so-ed-house house. Because we live there. When he was at my mom's house, we were at my mom's house, she saw my mom all the time. She didn't see my show-ed-ed-out. But now, now, the roles are switched. Can you your swagger out post him? Has your swagger up posted him? Yeah, she doesn't every now and then, but, like, my sister's my life.
Starting point is 00:47:19 You get mad at it? She don't get rid of her. Oh. So just be that, hey, look, your mom posted the picture or something like that. She'll mention it to me. I don't know. I don't care. Because I don't,
Starting point is 00:47:28 I'm not on any of that, but. But you care when your mom has it. Happy wife, happy wife, happy life. Okay. That's how he feels. Happy wife, happy life. Like, it's the boundary.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Let me just respect it. And, yeah, miss, my mom's happy right now. My mom sees my son. Okay. We go hang out all the time. Yeah, me, we go to date. I won't, I won't bother my mother-in-law or my sister's in-law because, hey, you guys have them all the damn time.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Hey, can I, mom, can you borrow, can you watch my son for a little bit? Yeah, yeah. She'll be like, bring it to me whenever. She's always wanting to buy some. But don't post them. But don't post them. And they know, like, there's other little rules.
Starting point is 00:48:02 And my son does his drink soda. He's four years. He'd never taste a soda. Okay. It's good. It's good. It's not good. It's not good.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Yeah, they're not really chips and nothing like that. Like, everyone knows the rules. Yeah. Yeah. They make a little bit of chocolate every now and then. You know, the pretty capos. Yeah. You bought your kid a bubble yet?
Starting point is 00:48:20 A what? To live? A little? What? A bubble? By the way, juice is really bad too, so just throw a lot in the tight sugar. Yeah. Syrup.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Yeah, I know it. And your mom gives your kid Mexican Coke when you're not there. I was going to say, you don't know. I know they do. Oh, okay. I see. Yeah. And I'm running for her.
Starting point is 00:48:38 I'm ready for her. You just got to set the rules when you're in. Oh, cool. He's all jacked up a mountain dew when you're not around. On a scale from 1 to 10, how much does your, I'm thinking of saying right now? On a scale from 1 to 10, how much does your girl dislike your mom? I would have said dislike She's just like
Starting point is 00:48:56 You know what I was a mama's boy I had my mama's boy so She feels like Sometimes you know My mom gets away with some shit That she probably should have been That's not be saying bad words So 10
Starting point is 00:49:05 So 10 she and you're like Dislike isn't the word letty It's hate Yeah She hates her Strong love Abby I don't know
Starting point is 00:49:16 You know This is how I put it Yeah If you're If you want the If the abuela doing too much Mm-hmm
Starting point is 00:49:23 have a step away, but also now you got to step a little bit more up. You got to do that. You can have both. It kind of comes with that because you're just going to grow tension and agitation in that household. And more than anything when babies are babies is they read energies and all of that. So because if you're going to be like, hey, don't be doing this, you also got to get ready to stand up and be like, we got this. And deal with that because you can't just like it somewhat somewhere somehow. You know, like it has to be all or nothing.
Starting point is 00:49:51 So, you know, well, yeah, you do need help. help. But if you're not okay with the help or if you feel she's doing too much, be okay with the, hey, this might go away now. You got to do it on your own. You can't control the help exactly. Yeah, yeah. Well, maybe she can't because she can be like, oh, maybe you can have that little
Starting point is 00:50:08 moment, but put a shirt on lady. Yeah, no, but like. Like, maybe she was a shock. The swagger is not the servant, you know? It's not a nanny. It's like she wants to bond with the baby too. Yeah. I was just thinking maybe Abby was just shocked finding her suegra like top place with her
Starting point is 00:50:23 It's so much. Yeah, it's a lot. It's no, no, it's so much more than that. It's the jealousy she's feeling. It's all of that. But that's just your sign that it's not going to work. That dynamic is not going to work. And honestly, you shouldn't put that on the, being sensitive to the swagrat too.
Starting point is 00:50:37 You shouldn't put that on her because now there's going to be tension in the house. Now it's going to be like, oh, I can't be me. And it's going to be drama. Unnecessary. Let her leave. Let her leave and you guys figure it out. That is. That's the only way to do it.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Because you can't be like, hey, dude, help us. But don't do this and don't do this and don't do this because that person's going to get feel away. Anybody would. Yep. Have you a baby. Angie. Yeah. Tell me.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Tell me about our kids probably calling our schools saying that we're not here anymore. Yeah. So you know how kids tend to lie. Yes. But this little kid took it to a whole different level, you guys. So Danielle Fischel, you probably know her from Topanga, I'm from Boy Meets World. Oh, Danielle Fichel. Daniel Fichel.
Starting point is 00:51:21 My Ben. Fichel. So she has. a six-year-olds, right? And apparently he made up this huge lie at school and told his teacher that his mom died and that his dad lost his job. Listen, what? I know. We get a call from Adler's school and it's his teacher. She says, so we had a little bit of an issue today with Adler. And he told us that he is feeling very stressed because his dad got fired. And then he said, and also my mom died.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Wow. That's a big lie. Like, I know kids lie. When I was little, I would lie, but saying that my mom is dead, that's knock on wood. There's a reason behind why he said. Yeah, so apparently it's because, so Danielle, she was actually part of dancing with the stars, right? And so she would always be out dancing, doing things like that. And the little kid just, he didn't like it. Yeah, he hated that she was on the show. Oh, so she was on the road, that's wow. Yeah. And he would keep telling her like, just quit your job. Like, I hate it. I hate that. All you do is, I'll dance. And you're gone. Yeah. Mom guilt for sure.
Starting point is 00:52:24 For sure. And so then he told everyone his mom that. Wow. You're dead to me, mom. If you go dance again, you're dead to me. She's out, by the way. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:33 She got eliminated. Which came true. Yeah. That is, wow. Shout to Panga, man. Yeah. So the kid lied. The kid said that she was dead and that her dad and that his dad lost his job.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Yeah. That's why at school he was like really stressed and he was unable to focus. That's like when Greg lies about like his relationship with His dad? No, I was about to say, I've actually lied to my teacher once before when I was about that age. Six? Yeah, I lied that my mom only spoke Spanish because my teacher was white. So then she wouldn't be able to call my mom and talk to her about, like, how bad I was being.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Genius move. The perfect crime. That's like that. Yeah. And then she calls my mom and my mom answers in English. Hello. And then, yeah, it was the whole thing. Oh, you got in trouble.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Oh, yes. I remember my oldest lied to the teacher in the yard, the yard. the one that just helps them get to school, get to class and all of that. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I remember I had taken him to school and she's like, oh my gosh, you're like, you're like back at it super quickly and you look great. And I was like, back at it super quickly. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:53:33 And then she's like, yeah, like, how's the baby? And then I was like, oh, because to me I called David the baby. He's 19. I'm like, oh, yeah, the baby's fine. He's great. And then she's like, no, the new baby. He said that you got, you had a baby. What?
Starting point is 00:53:46 And I was like, damn. He's over here adding children to, adding bodies to my name. At that time, I only had David. And I was like, there's no baby. Why are you saying you have a sibling, bro? Yeah. Oh, this. David was saying this at school?
Starting point is 00:53:59 Yeah. To the yard lady. Wow. That's not so bad, though. But this kid lying about his parent passing away is terrible. Yeah. Usually you wait for when you're older and you have to say your abuelita passes away. That's why you did those things you did to your girlfriend, right?
Starting point is 00:54:14 Yeah. Stuff like that. Yeah. Well, you had a friend like that. I had a friend who told me that his dad died and he didn't. He would just use that as an excuse. He used that as an excuse to not pay people back money that he scammed him out of. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:27 That's the adult ones. Those are more weird. It's so weird. I stopped being his friend for that. It's like, bro, I can't deal with that. There's like an urban legend meme that when a guy, she's on his girl, then he says like, I'm sorry what I did. My grandma died. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:44 These people say it all the time. Yeah. Have you guys actually used it? My grandma actually died. Oh. That doesn't give you a free pass. Oh, it doesn't? No, it does not.
Starting point is 00:54:54 Any, any, you said you lied a lot when you were a kid, Andy. Oh, I mean, I did lie to when I got my cupete. No, no, you said you lied a lot, so there's more than that. That I can't. Okay, well, I wasn't a kid. I was more of a teenager. I went, I would ditch. I would ditch, and I would just lie and say that I was sick, but I was actually at home watching Mory.
Starting point is 00:55:15 And that's how she got into her gig right now. No, you know what? She's miserable with this one. No, and then it got bad, letty, like, I got called, like the counselor called. I picked up and I told them like my mom doesn't speak English, same thing as Greg, you know? But they're like,
Starting point is 00:55:28 Estabien, like, Ablamos Español and I knew that. Gotcha, you're in San Ana. They almost took away my senior privileges. They told me like I might not even be able to walk or anything like that. What? And not only was I ditching and lying to my mom,
Starting point is 00:55:42 but then I was forging her signature too. Wow. You should be in jail. You had a whole scheme going. Yeah, no, I did. And then it turned into a whole thing. And then my dad got involved And then my dad had to lie from me
Starting point is 00:55:54 And say like, it's because my wife is really sick So she Wow. Oh, he went along with that. Oh, my God. And I started crying. I'm like, I want to go to, I want to do all the activities.
Starting point is 00:56:06 How am I not going to walk? A pa. So yeah, it was a whole thing. A whole performance. Stop fishing, Angie, watching more than lying. Who are you? Who are you even? A liar.
Starting point is 00:56:14 But you know what? At least I did not lie about this one, okay? What? This British influencer. Her name is Brittany Miller. She just admitted that she lied about having cancer years ago. Oh, my God. That one.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Yeah. I'm not bad, okay? The lies are coming out this season. See, video. Dude, she posted like a whole six-minute video of herself crying and talking about it and explaining why she actually did it. So back in 2017, I had extremely bad mental health. I was depressed.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I was... I was lost. I was confused. I lost my partner. I lost my job. And it was not. lots of things in that year that led me to be mentally ill. I did it to keep the people close to me, to keep the people in my life close to me.
Starting point is 00:57:00 She said she had cancer to... She was depressed and she was going through it. And this is like a popping girl. She's like a influencer. Yeah, she's popping on TikTok, right? And she was saying that this happened like years before she was even... She didn't even need to snitch on herself? She didn't even need to do that?
Starting point is 00:57:15 Not true. She just decided to story time it. Apparently, but I mean like, I hate when people are like, oh, that was so long. and go, 2017. Facts. Yeah, how long was that?
Starting point is 00:57:25 Eight years. Yeah, eight years ago. Yeah, like you sit there, act like that was like, you know, 1999 or something. Right. Not to her credit,
Starting point is 00:57:33 but understanding, I guess, the scope of it is before she was popping. So to her, she was saying, like, I did this before I was famous. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did this to the people
Starting point is 00:57:41 around me, right? And not that it's, I don't think she's famous, I don't know her. But it's like, I guess something she did before the public really knew about her.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Yeah. Still not cool. It's not. I think that's where she's framing it. Yeah. Like back in 2017, when I was a nobody. Yeah, no. She said it.
Starting point is 00:57:56 She said, she said, I had cancer. She's like, I didn't do it for likes or for followers. She's like, it wasn't a scam, but it just happened because, like, it blew up. She was like, I told somebody that somebody told someone and then they decided she had to keep it up. Yeah, she's like, they decided to do like a whole fundraiser. Then there was donations. And she's like, and I swear I never touched any money from it. Yeah, because that's fraud.
Starting point is 00:58:17 Yeah. No. But then she continues. And she's like, you know what? I forgive myself. I've grown from this. I am working on being the best version of myself. It took me a long time to understand why I did it.
Starting point is 00:58:29 And I forgive myself because I was mentally ill. And I am so deeply sorry. I feel like I've seen a doc like this on who were on Netflix. Yeah, right? Like a documentary. I think she definitely did it for the likes because you would be sorry if you were doing it. We're doing the story time right now. For like.
Starting point is 00:58:46 In general, like, yeah. Doing the story time now. People do a lot of things for attention. dog yeah i'm telling you it's a thing yeah they don't act like who they pretend they're somebody else they get on these airwaves start yelling at women and saying that they hate this hate that anytime someone calls in they're just the polar opposite
Starting point is 00:59:03 just to get attention i know i'm saying like before that no one paid them any mind no one knew who they were no one was like eh but now even if they feel hate at least they feel something towards you know what i'm feeling sick now so i need money If you want to send it, I'll take your money. I'll take it.
Starting point is 00:59:22 You'll say that though. But yeah, no, it's horrible. It's horrible. And I do, I've seen documentaries where, like, a girl, like, look as she faked to her whole church that she was going to different chemos and all of that. I saw that. Yeah. And it's like, she did a whole blog because it gave her attention.
Starting point is 00:59:38 And so people were like, oh, my God, you're so strong. And I'm praying for you. And you're so motivational. They get addicted to that, you know? We need a bring back superstition. I feel like. I'm so superstitious that I would never say any of those things at, like, the risk of it actually happening for real. That's why I would never play with any of my family members.
Starting point is 00:59:58 Boy, who pride woo. Yes, I can never be like, oh, I'm sick and I'm not like, even if I've ever, like, not come into work or anything, I've never been like, oh, it's because of this. Like, nah, I'm not going to, I'm just, whatever. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah. Why I feel sick. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:02:13 someone else that looked up to her was her stepson and we were talking about lies that your kid has told about you to school. Yes. And she told Vic that her stepson lied and said what? That she got shot. Oh my God. Knock on wood. When he was in like first grade, she said.
Starting point is 01:02:29 So pass. I would have believed it. Apparently she showed up to school and everybody looked at her weird like, oh my God, you're okay. You're good. It's a miracle. It was kind of a great lie because like she was. around the thugs and the drugs. Oh, yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:45 Bichron. I would believe that. Yeah. 100% want to believe that. Great lie. I just wonder why it came. Yeah. Like, what was it?

Starting point is 01:03:35 Or not really like People would be like hey your grandpa's here And then I wouldn't correct them Oh you just let it be Yeah because everybody else had parents that we're a little bit young. All right.
Starting point is 01:03:44 Well, there's that. You lie about your dad? Your mom? You lie about your dad every day. You lie that you guys don't love each other. We don't. You do. You totally love each other.
Starting point is 01:03:53 Why do you always say that? All right. Vick, you ever lie about your parents? No, but I just make it seem like my dad is like, like, speaks Spanish all the time, but he speaks perfectly fine English. Wow. That makes no sense, bro. I just make it seem like he's like some seor, and he's not. He's a super cool dude.

My king, taking over the internet once again for the past. 20 years as he usually does. For the past 20 years. Yes, it's been a long time. My Drake, my Drake. My King has been taken a living there. And he's going forward right now because of a trend. That's not even his song. But people are making it his song and wish that he's hopping on this trend as well. Because there's a song called Love Me by JMSN. And people when they're Jameson. Jameson. I just, it's abbreviated. Yeah. But that's how it's pronounced right. Yeah. He's a good singer. Go ahead. It's been around.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Oh, okay, okay, okay, anyways, anyways, yeah. So people think that they can hear Drake on a song, on this song. So they're, like, acting as if he's on it. Listen to this. Look. Just hopped on a PJ and my PJs. I'm flying the Bahamas while you boys got five baby moms, man. Make no sense.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Just toes down in the place you can't pronounce. It's been in the mouth. It's unfathomable in your bank accounts. So people are making fun of Drake introses with this song. Okay, how? They just keep making the... Yeah When you said nothing beats a jet two
Starting point is 01:05:47 Holiday I ain't know it was a joke You know I just wanted gas up the plane But it is what it is When you saw the receipt I know you ain't seen that many zeros Since high school

Starting point is 01:06:10 Does he? Yes Drake does it on a lot of songs Okay well he did it on the James or they think it's him on the Jameson one is what you're saying? Well, people want him to do it. They would sound great on it. So they're doing their own version. Yes.
Starting point is 01:06:20 So none of what we just heard was Drake. None of it was Drake. That was people's owns versions of the, like they're reenacting what Drake would say. What Drake would sound like. Mid. Mid. All of that sounded mid, right? It's just them talking.
Starting point is 01:06:32 How is that mid? No, that's greatness. Everything that you sound, you played just sounded mid. How? That's how Drake would sound. How? Because you played it and then it just didn't sound like it. It's just not shocking.
Starting point is 01:06:42 That's literally what Drake is. says and it's amazing. That's not what Drake says. That's what people are saying like. It's like in the Drake vein. It's in like what he would sound. Like what would Drake do? But I think it's corny when Drake does it.
Starting point is 01:06:55 I think it's corny when they do it. How is that? It's a big corn thing. Yeah. And it's like we've accepted it from Drake or y'all have accepted it from Drake. But it's like, all right, cool. Cool story, bro. So you want to do it is what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:07:06 You would do it? Yeah. Let's do it. Let's go. Look. It's already ADM. I'm already talking to the city. It's 9 o'clock.
Starting point is 01:07:15 Oh, it's 9 o'clock. My bad. I can't even tell time on this Rolex. You don't even have one. I have my coffee delivered every morning and Bertha grabs it for me. It puts it on my chair. That's messed up. I don't even have to touch my coffee order because it's already there for me.
Starting point is 01:07:29 Yeah. I'm swiping cards that don't even have my name on it. They're your mom. They don't even have no limit. Y'all can't even understand. They're gift cards. I got two cars. Don't even pay the registration.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Ooh. Because it already goes automatically through the car. Did you write this? Yeah. It into Drake fashion. He would have had someone else write it, then he reads it. Oh! Okay, now I think Vivica A. Fox and 50 Cent are going to get back together.
Starting point is 01:08:01 What? No way. Okay. Maybe way. And I'll tell you why. Tell you why. Okay, so they've gone back and forth since they first started dating. They first started dating after a BETT award show where 50Cem like shot his shot back in the day.
Starting point is 01:08:16 And like, look key Vivica A. Fox. She's bombed. But back then she was like the. hot actress, you know, like looking bomb and looking incredible. And he took the time while he accepted an award to shoot a shot. I want to thank Vivica Fox for wearing that dress too. And then it panted to her and she was like, what? You did what?
Starting point is 01:08:33 They were in a relationship together. But it didn't work out. No. Recently, she was at some type of a convention and they asked her like, hey, Vivica, do you have any advice to get your dreams, to reach your dreams? And her advice was about him, about 50 cents. He said and donate their damn right. To be able to laugh about it.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Learn to laugh not to cry. Okay, now this isn't the first time that she's talked about 50 or they've gotten their own little back and forth, but as 50 did, he responded via his Instagram account. He posted a photo of what him, he looks like he's in the Matrix. And he has a red pull and a blue pill.
Starting point is 01:09:14 I didn't watch the movie, so, but I'm assuming what I've heard is like, you take one, it's one reality, you take another one, it's another reality. But he said, look, either way I'm going to have that ass in the Matrix. You know, I love me some of you girl. But damn, it's been 22 years, Vivica. So you're saying, like, either way, I would, like, I would have got you.
Starting point is 01:09:31 Yeah. Right? But Vivica, pipe down, is what he's saying. Like, don't be all extra on the internet. Maybe? I don't know. Recently, not recently. She's been asked about him before.
Starting point is 01:09:40 And people were kind of, like, upset at her. Like, why even bringing him up? Yeah. Like, don't be doing it. So I think whether she brought him up or not, people would bring it up. She was on a talk show and they brought the relationship up too. Yeah. However, she said that.
Starting point is 01:09:54 this. You know, you never know. Ben and Jen got back together. Who knows? But I doubt it. Yay. That's not no.
Starting point is 01:10:02 That's not no. And when she said that, she had a man. Wow. She had a man. She had a man. He has his girl, but you never know. Imagine hearing that.
Starting point is 01:10:10 Oh, hell no. They're getting back together. How old they'll be? I don't know. But one day they did. She sounded kind of old in that clip. Maybe she did. The one.
