The Bobby Bones Show - AMY: F-Bombs and Feelings: What Cursing Says About You

Episode Date: November 8, 2025

Feeling “blah”? You’re not alone. Good news, though? This episode is funny! Kat and Amy dive into everything from rage showers (yep, they’re real) to treadmill meltdowns and the odd debate of “zero” vs “oh” when saying numbers. But the real kicker: can swearing actually make you more authentic? Kat breaks down the surprising psychology behind profanity, and why dropping an f-bomb might say more about your honesty than your manners. It’s a messy and unexpectedly insightful ride through emotion, language, and laughter. Sign up for the Feeling Things newsletter HERE! Watch us on Youtube HERE!

You know the Taquero from the Bad Bunny halftime show? It was great. It was a big moment. It was special. And I felt like I was really representing my family, you know, my brand, my city. I was representing all taqueros. not only of like, you know, the U.S., but of Mexico and beyond, all the taqueros of the world.

Come on some, Amy and Kat, got you covered like an arm, brother. Ladies and fuck it. We're telling us to the chill stuff and the in between.

Sometimes the best thing you can do is just stops and feel things. This is Feeling Things with Amy and Kat. Happy Tuesday. Welcome to Feeling Things. I'm Amy. And I'm Kat. And before we get to the feeling of the day, which is coming from you, Kat, I have a random question of the day. And it's.

Is this question is a day? don't come up? Yeah. Okay. But I feel like are we doing questions that don't come up like in the middle of something like randomly if it comes up? This is premeditated. Okay. Then no, it's not. Well, it's something because I was on a call before we were recording and I had to say my credit card over the phone and I have zeros in my credit card, multiple. But I realize that depending on how the numbers are laid out, sometimes I say oh and sometimes I say zero. I don't say zero every time and I don't say oh every time. So my question is, when you have a zero, do you say zero or oh? Like, for example, I can say my phone number growing up. It was 282-0841. Oh, that's oh. But then sometimes if I was like

282-0841 and then maybe there was like four other numbers, it might be like 0-9-6. You know, like if it was like, okay, and what's the code to access your bedroom? Yeah, you would say zero. Yeah, I would say zero. access your bedroom? I don't know. Like what's your extension? You know? Like that was, because that was my home phone.

Do you still remember your home phone number going up? Yeah. Why do I feel like I shouldn't say it out loud? It doesn't even exist anymore. Yeah, I'm probably, I mean, I didn't give the area code, but I gave the two-eight-two-way. I still use it for, like, certain things that it's connected to. Oh, probably shouldn't do that. Well, I mean, for like, when you go to like a grocery store and you type it in to get the points.

You know, at the grocery store, you can always do whatever area code you live in and do 8, 6-7, 5, 309. Oh, eight. Oh, in the song. They go, 8675309. And get the points? It works for me. So at a grocery store,

you've never actually created an account. You just use some. Sometimes I have, but then some, if I don't, yes, I will do the area code of where I am. So in Nashville, we're 615, and then you just type in

867309 and then all the discounts come up. No way. Yeah. Okay. Okay, well, so I don't know. know it's a very random question, but it just got me thinking, like, wow, in my credit card number, I have multiple zeros and sometimes I say zero and sometimes I say, oh, it just has to be the placement

and how it feels rolling off the tongue. So you're asking, do I say zero or oh? Do you ever say oh or zero? I don't know because I don't pay attention to that, but I'm assuming because when you said the phone number, I'm like, yeah, if you said zero, say zero, 282-0841 or 282-0-0841. Oh, I guess it sounds normal too. I wouldn't do that. And it's not like, we call it Coke zero. I don't say Coke, oh. I mean, obviously it's called Coke zero. Because they told us, but I mean, zeros are zero. So why do I say, oh? It's an abbreviation. I know, but why? It just was weird. Like, in the, in the flow of it, I didn't say consistently zero every time. It was like, oh. In the delivery. I'm finally hearing what you're saying. Like, let's say my credit card

number has five zeros. Have I, am I not being clear this entire? time, me. I'm not saying, not you understanding it, me not being clear in my delivery. Like, my credit card number has multiple zeros, but say it's four to five, zero. I wouldn't say four to five, oh, I say four to five zero. And then if it's like zero six eight zero, I might say that, but then there's, there's another zero in there. I say, oh. You say both is what you're saying. I say both. Okay. In the combination of saying, you know, I, love how what's the right word here passionate how passionate you are becoming over this i thought you were saying like a weirdo no i thought you were saying like sometimes like with my phone number i say oh but with my credit

card i say zero no you're saying i i mix and mingle i mix and mingle in the same delivery i think that's okay okay thank you thank you that's all i don't know i don't know i guess i was just curious if i'm the Only person on the planet that does this. I don't think you are. Okay. Cryocat does it. Okay. Everybody in this room does that.

So you mix and mingle in the same flow. I think it's like, yeah, it's a, you have to go based on how you feel and like a zero might feel right here and a O might feel right here. Zero and O, this is the only one we do it for. We don't do it for. Well, what other numbers have abbreviations? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. You're like, seven? Sev.

Sev. Sev. Sev. Okay, no, I guess they don't. We don't. Yeah. So I think you're normal. Oh, oh.

Yeah, I would say, oh, oh. Yeah. Oh, I would say, oh, oh. I would probably say, oh, I wouldn't go zero, zero. But I might. But I might say zero, oh, okay. Four, three, two. But I also think if I'm reading something off to somebody, I like to be very clear,

because I think sometimes when I speak, I don't speak clearly. So I probably would say, if I'm reading something, zero, zero, four, three kind of thing. Yeah. But if I'm just, if someone's like, what's your phone number, I probably would be like, 430, 4200. Right. You know? I know.

I'm with you. I'm very clear. That's why it was weird to me because I noticed that I was like 9, 6, 0, 4, 2.0. And it was like, 0. And I'm like, why did I just switch that? there's nothing wrong with you. Probably should have described it just like that in the very beginning. Yeah. I think you're normal. And if you weren't normal, that would be such a fun quirk that we would just love about you. You probably wouldn't even really notice it. And I bet that person didn't notice that you did that.

Yeah. Well, because then, I mean, all credit cards are numbers, but she might be like, oh, oh, it's not a number because O is a letter. Yeah. I think that she gets that. That's the abbreviation for zero, though. know, probably. What if she said that ozone number? I don't, I can't input that ma'am. Yeah. And I would be like, you know, it's the nickname for zero. It's this is short talk. Or like shorthand. My mom was able to write shorthand. I never. What does that mean? It's an abbreviated writing. Don't you just do that anyway when you're taking notes? No, this is like a special language. Oh. Well, I don't know if they were taught it like it. My mom was a secretary back when it was called secretary. at places and then later an administrative assistant.

But I think it was a taught thing. Like you learned shorthand. Oh. Sort of like who keeps notes in the courtroom, you know? The clerk. No. The topography. But the topography.

They're taking, they're not notes. They're taking minutes. The minute taker. I know. But they're, if you've ever noticed, their keyboard is not a normal keyboard. I don't think. I believe it's like a shorthand type. So it has letters, it has like words on it?

They're typing so quickly to keep up with everything that's being said. I didn't know that. So, yeah, a stenographer, a court reporter. That's what it's called or that's what her machine's called. It's the person is the stenographer and the machine is the stenographer. Fee. Stenographer. Stenography.

Typewriter. Oh. Shorthand typewriter. It just popped in my head, obviously. Cool. We just didn't plan on talking about this. Things that don't come up. Yeah, things, random things we never thought we'd talk about. But let's get into the feeling of the day since none of this has anything to do with feelings. Yeah, you're feeling passionate. Would you say that? Or were you feeling insecure about that? I think I more so was feeling insecure that I was not being

clear in what I was saying. It sort of threw me because you did a good job faking like you knew what I was talking about. And then all of a sudden, because I thought you were tracking with me. And then you go, Oh, I get what you're saying. So then I got defensive. And I'm like, DM? You go, you're not weird. I go, yeah.

Even though I only brought it up because I thought I was weird. I know I'm not weird. But a minute, like a minute before I had brought it up because I felt like maybe I was being weird. So do you feel better? Yeah, I feel better. I don't know if we have any clarity. But those listening out there right now, if you say O or zero, you are not alone. And that's what this podcast is all about.

Okay, I'm not feeling insecure. passion, there might be some passion in there, but I'm feeling a low level of enrage. Okay. Because I don't know if I have shared with you on here before recently that we have purchased. I don't know if I have shared with you before recently on this here podcast ever in this time. We've purchased a treadmill. Breaking news. Yeah.

This is breaking news. My iPads talking to me. So we purchased the treadmill. It was a big deal. We shopped around. We tested somehow. I did some research. Great.

Purchase it. We go to the store. You know what? I'm going to say the store because it deserves to be mentioned. Like in a negative or positive way? You can decide. Well, I need to know the location before you do because I don't know if I have an affiliation with them at all in any way, shape or form. It's a common store that people buy goods at.

Goods at. sporting goods. Sure. Okay, we'll give it at that. I won't even blame the store. I think they wouldn't have known this. Yeah. I will say that. Well, part of it is the store associate. The store wouldn't have known the actual problem. That would not be their fault. Perfect. So good thing we didn't say their name and we're not going to. Yeah. Why would I ever do that? Yeah. So we go to the store. The store associate,

which I'm like, duh, Catherine. This probably is just like a college student who's working on the weekends to make minimum wage. He probably doesn't really care. that's judgment but i will say patrick worked at this store at one point in his life and that's what he said he did so i'm like asking questions once we were going to buy it he was like do you want to get the assembly and delivery i said well how much is that he said 200 oh i know what you thought right away you were like what why would i pay someone to put it together when i can do it myself literally i said well could we do it ourselves and he said well i did it myself in 45 minutes so yeah and I was like, then no, we'll just take it with us today.

He said, what kind of car do you drive? I told him, he said, oh, it'll be fine. It'll fit in there. Long story short, it did not fit. Half of it didn't even fit in my car. So we had to come back the next day, get my dad's truck, put it there, take it to our house, carry it up the stairs, which I had to enlist family members to come to our house to do this.

I thought somebody was going to die. Yeah, treadmills are heavy. I didn't know that. Oh. Why did I not know that? Why did I not think that? Probably because the only previous, your prior experience to a quote unquote treadmill before this, but it's one of those walking pads from Amazon. Is that why? Yeah. And I could carry that upstairs by myself. Right. It's very portable. Yes. So I was so scared during this process. And in the middle of the- Yeah, like I'm shocked. Like we've had to pay, whenever I've had to relocate my treadmill, we've had to pay the company to come move it. Because I've been so- Should have done that. Terrified. Should have done that. But you could do it yourself. Yeah, and I have to admit, I did not help at all to carry that up the stairs. And I probably would have died if I was part of that process. We finally get it in there.

Patrick and I set it up. And honestly, it was a little frustrating setting up, but it wasn't that bad. Oh, before this, the sales associate said, do you want to buy a mat for this treadmill? I said, do we need one? We're just putting it on carpet. He said, no, it's really more for hardwood floors, so you don't mess up your hardwood flooring.

We also don't care about this carpet anyway because eventually we want to rip it up. So he's like, oh, then you don't need the mat. And I was like, great, save more money. Don't pay for the assembly. Don't pay for the shipping. Don't pay for the mat. So we get it up there, put it together. It doesn't work.

And I'm like, oh, my God. So I'm like Googling stuff, whatever, blah, blah. Then I open up the manual. And on the first page, it says, before you start, like, warning things to know. The first thing is do not assemble this and use it on carpet. so you need the mat. Yeah, and it probably could have like, I don't know, done something bad. Could have started a fire under there?

Yeah. Yeah. Probably. So anyway, we had to get the mat. Then we had to get the mat. Weeks have gone by. We've updated our treadmill experience. Yeah, I don't know all of this saga, but I do know when you bought the treadmill.

And I feel like that was a really long time ago. Month, probably. Yeah. Probably can't return it at this point. Well, I'm going to speed the story up because this is far too long. If someone is currently on the treadmill right now, you have jogged a couple miles. Literally. They're like, and.

Anyway, so we had to take the treadmill completely apart, which did cause a little bit of marital discord. And take it apart to fix the thing. Oh, my God. We took the whole thing apart because we were trying to get to this one screw. And then once we took the whole thing apart, Patrick. realized we could have just lifted the trailman up to access that crew and we didn't screw and we didn't need to take the whole thing apart yeah so we anyway we did that then we lifted it up wouldn't you know the inside the motor of the treadmill is completely rusted how you don't know it's a mystery

so now we have to undo it again and take it down the stairs the whole thing can't the they come pick it up. Like, you sold me a rusty treadmill. So I'm going to need. What did I do to deserve this? That's what I want to know. I just wanted to be healthy. I just wanted to move my body a little bit. Well, I've been walking outside now. And so anyway, I did. It's about to get to be the winter months. Yeah. I did email them and send them pictures because they had sent me like, this is probably what it is. Just look at this and fix it. And I'm like, well, this is rusted. So my hope. is that they're like, oh no, we'll send somebody there with a new piece and they'll fix it. Because if I have to take that thing back downstairs, I'd rather just light it on fire,

but I actually can't do that inside my house. No, that's not going to happen. Okay, our hope is going to be that they're going to come and fix it or if it has to be removed that they will come and haul it away, like on the house. Because it needs to be swapped out and that shouldn't be on you to have to handle that. just a girl and maybe I should pretend like I'm I'm a single woman living in that home and I not strong enough or something so they have to like sir I have no family here nobody can help me do this yeah my parents don't live down the street and that is not my husband right here my brother

doesn't live down the street they're like how did you get up here you know just you know one step at a time treadmill I have my own issues The treadmill works fine, but my cat has claimed it as sort of her spot. Perch. And so I get on it and sometimes she's cool with it. But other times she swats at me and like tries to bite me. And if I'm walking with my arm, she'll like, meow, weir, weir. And like, she does not want me to be on there.

And then I have a little, I'll have to buy you one of these. You can get a little clear tray and a little stand for your computer. and it'll prop up and you can walk and work. But when I have the tray up there, there's no room for her. And she freaks out. And I'm like, Maggie, go lay somewhere else. It's not the big of a deal. Wait, this is actually really ironic since she's on a diet.

I know. And she just sits on the treadmill. Her favorite spot is the treadmill. She's like, everybody in this family will not be exercising. Yes, she's like, yes, because I'm currently not feeding her in her bowl. We have to loose feed her where you just hide food around. the room and she has to hunt for it. She has to like work for her food and find it. But I feel bad. So I'll hide it and then I take her to it and I'm like, this is where I put it. And I'm like,

here you go. Um, so do you put like one little piece? No, I put like, or is it like a pile of a little pile. And not in a bowl? Not in a bowl. I just lose. Can she just like put her food on the floor? No, she can't eat that way anymore. She's to go, she's to like have an ounce here, an ounce Here's just like find it and walk around. And I'm apparently supposed to exercise with her. And I'm like, how do you exercise a cat? A win is a win. A win is a win.

My days of filling up said, sir, may be over, but I'm still loving life in the valley. Life on the other side of the hill is giving grown-up vibes, but over here on my podcast, Untraditionally Lala, I'm still that Lala you either love or love to hate. I've been full on over sharing with fans, family, and former frenemies like Tom Schwartz. I had a little bone to pick with Schwarzy when he came on the pod. You don't feel bad that you told me I was a bootleg housewife? I almost flipped a pizza in your lap.

Oh my God, I literally forgot about that until just now. sorry, I don't want to blame alcohol. I got to blame that one on the alcohol. This is about laughing and learning when life just keeps on life in. Because I make mistakes so that you guys don't have to. We're growing, we're thriving, and yes, sometimes we're barely surviving,

I'm telling you I had nothing to my name. I didn't know a single person in New York. And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet. This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it, who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of. Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us. They're not selfish. They're so important.

They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually show up better everywhere. We lead better. We're better friends. We're better relationships and collaborators and all those things because we have passion about the things we're doing.

I mean, you put like a ribbon and they bounce around, but I mean...

Yeah, why aren't you doing that? Well, I have to start. Kara always eats her chute-her little toys that we get her. Kara eats it, so then it's like, okay, I'm not going to buy another one. Car's probably overweight, too. You walk car all the time. I know, but I overfeed my pets for sure. Wait, I have a question.

Why? Because I feel knowing nothing about animals, never had a cat. So take this with a grain of salt. why can't you just limit her food intake? Why do you have to hide it? This is what the vet told me to do. So she has to hunt for it. So she's not eating it.

So that way if you have it in the bowl, like she's just going to eat it all right there. And then if it's spread out, she's like spacing out her food. And she has to, I don't know, cat. Okay. So the real issue is that she's sedentary. The vet said this is the heaviest she has weighed

and you need to come back on her food. What's the oldest that she has ever been? of course it's the heavy. No, I think at some point, like, cats just, like, should maintain. Maybe I'm feeling defensive of my own life. I'm like, yeah, I'm the heaviest I've ever been because I'm 35. Yeah. And I'm not 12 anymore.

Yeah. Okay. Anyway, Maggie, she parks it on my treadmill. And yes, it is ironic because she does need to work out. But because you have been through such a difficult time with your treadmill, once it's set up, I will gift you the clear tray and the computer. That's really nice. And what I hear in that is that you believe that this will be resolved.

It will. It will be. And what I have learned is pay for the delivery and assembly. Yeah. You can't do everything yourself. Do I deserve this? I think I do. Because I...

I feel like you have other things going on that are like magnifying like the rage you feel towards the treadmill. And it makes me... It's not about the treadmill. It may not be. Have you thought about that? It's 100% not about the treadmill. Oh, okay.

See? I really probably wouldn't be this upset. It's just like something, I'd rather hyper focus on that than other things in my life that are out of my control. Yeah, you're like, if I do that, I'm a sudden on fire. But I've got, I can't burn my house down. But I can't do that. If y'all see cow on the news. No, you won't.

Oh, my fire alarm? Speaking of. Okay. So yesterday, as we're working on the treadmill, our fire alarm goes off. But it was not an alarm. It was a woman's voice. What was she saying? She said, there's smoke in the master bedroom.

The alarm is about to sound. It will be very loud, just so you know. And then? And then it was quiet. And I go, Patrick? Because my initial thought, I had walked. Oh my gosh. I had walked.

I wasn't with him. Because we, okay, we just found the rest. I walked in the bathroom, take my contacts out. And I started hearing the woman's voice. And then I yelled out. Patrick? Patrick? And I like grabbed my shoes and I was about to like run outside because I thought my house was burning down also. I was like, who was that? It reminded me of smart house. I don't know. Oh my gosh. Okay. Disney Channel original movie and that was a scary movie to me because the lady was like a robot that like took care of the house, but she then started taking over the house. And in my head, I'm like, somebody's invaded our house. We're not going to, they're going to lock the doors. Like I don't. I freaked out. And then the alarm never sounded, but then there was no smoke. So then Patrick was like, it's fine. And then 10 minutes go by, she does it again. There's smoke in the master bedroom.

The alarm will sound. It's going to be very loud, just so you know. Was she glitching? She said it clearly. Well, I know, but like glitch, like was her system, like, what was making her fire off? Like, was there smoke in the master bedroom? No. And so then, well, then I went in blue. I had a candle. I had a candle on. downstairs so I went and blew the candle out. I'm like, surely, that's not it. And then 30 minutes later, it did it again. This time the alarm went off. So I opened the door and I'm like, I'm out of the house. And Patrick's like in the bedroom looking for smoke. I'm like, get out. And then I called my dad. And then, well, I texted him. He said that those alarms are norm. My first concern was why is she talking? Like, this should just be a sound. And he said new alarms, fire alarms talk.

I've never heard that before ever has anybody in this room ever so if that happens to you one day just know it it can be normal it's not a person and then he said to vacuum it because sometimes dust gets in there and he said do that and if it doesn't work it could be a spider sometimes spiders crawl into them so if it still doesn't if vacuuming doesn't help then maybe it's a spider and just to take it down and I said well what if there really is a smoke somewhere like in the attic and there's smoke somewhere and then and the night it's going to turn into a fire and then we are dead. Yeah. And he said that it would have already been a fire by now. Right. Okay. And then he said, if you need me to come over, I will. But I don't think, I think Patrick wanted to take care of it himself.

He probably did. And you're like, it's cool. I already texted my dad. No, I said, is it a, does that make you feel weird that I'm texting my dad? And he said, no, I don't really know what's going on either. But you don't need him to come over here at 9 p.m. I can take the fire. Just so he can take it off the wall, I can do that. Yeah. That reminds me of one time my ex-husband early in our marriage, my dad was going to carve the turkey, but we were hosting. And that didn't go over well. I mean, he didn't say anything to him, but he got upset. And he was like, this is our Thanksgiving. I'm supposed to carve the turkey. So your dad carved it. I think my dad started working on the turkey. And my ex-husband was like, that's my turkey. Well, yeah.

He didn't say anything. It was more internal. And then later he expressed to me that he was upset because it was his turkey. Did he cook the turkey? Yeah, I mean, I think we did it all together. I honestly, this was years ago. I mean, I was married 17 years and that was the early part of her marriage. So we're going back to like, it could have been around 2007, 2008 that this happened.

So I don't remember every detail, but it just made me think of like a son-in-law father relationship and how it's like newly married like this is my house you're her dad but i'm her husband and i'm going to protect her and carve her turkey and i carved that sounds interesting it sounds like it doesn't have to be sexual it's that weird it still sounded it it doesn't have to be but it sounded dirty so to be like bim is actually talking to about a turkey. Yes. Like actual turkey.

But it was, it was an interesting thing. Like, some of that is just conditioning as men or wanting to feel a certain way in your home. You know? But I feel like your ex-husband was way more, and I could be wrong,

but it appeared to me to be way more like handy and traditionally masculine in that way than my husband. Like, Patrick doesn't know how to carve a turkey. Wait, oh my gosh, stop. This is not supposed to be. Poor fashion. You doesn't listen, right? No.

Okay. I don't mean it like that. It's okay. He's so masculine, but I think he can't handle the days. Oh. He knows how to carve a turkey. Tell us how manly he is. Like, name all the ways.

Hurry, hurry. Name him. Starts it. them. Sorry, so he's like, so he loves sports. He loves sports. He loves sports. He loves he loves gambling. He loves sports. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, stop it. I don't think that would even upset him because I think he knows what I mean. Like, he can't like, he can't. He can't. He wasn't handy. He had like, he managed his money well. He's, does. Oh, I hope he does. He's an accountant. I'm crying. I don't know. We're just giving you our time. Okay. Okay.

But look, hey, guess what? Patrick, I love you and you're perfect for me. What I meant was I feel like Ben would do probably more like building of things. My dad definitely did, not Ben. I mean, I think, you know, he could be handy. And also he was gone a lot like because he was in the military. So I think yes. Could he do certain things on a plane?

Like could he fly an airplane? I felt like that was always. Yeah. That's pretty. office of women flight airplanes is not like just a man thing but I think I had to learn how to figure out things on my own I didn't do I hired it out like so did you call your dad yeah my dad would do a lot and I don't know if that really bothered Ben to be honest we didn't really talk about it but things would just get done or I would hire people and then I think that was sort of our routine so even

when Ben would come back from deployment I'm like oh I already have my handyman who was not threatening. He couldn't hear well. I had this one handyman and I think he was like maybe, you know how you're sort of legally blind? Yeah. Right. Right. But like you can see. It's like a. Yeah, I'm legally blind, but I can see like shapes and blobs. Yeah. So anyway, his hearing was impaired. Can I say what I meant by that? Just I feel like I need to get this out. Well, first of all, Patrick's not going to listen. I know, but I wouldn't want that in the ether anyway. Okay. I meant like, traditionally masculine in the sense that like the traditional roles where we kind of bend the like I can probably hang a picture frame better than he can kind of thing wow what is that I'm just kidding okay um I'm just kidding so he doesn't get mad at that kind of stuff because he knows

my sister's the same way her husband can design and help build a house but my sister is going to hang the picture better yeah I'm just saying he doesn't get mad about that he would never get mad at the I can't say this but I wouldn't expect him to care who cuts the turkey at Thanksgiving because he just is like, oh, your dad would probably do a better job at that so he can do it, kind of thing. Does that make sense? Yes. I love my husband. We know you do. It was just funny. Okay. I thought, and laughter is good for the soul. Like, we all got a good laugh and I bet you feel better because earlier you were like raging. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. I have other ways to reset your day. I know laughter. that happens organically. You can't really force that. But if you ever need to reset your day again,

like if you're feeling ragey, you can take a rage shower. What's that? So you get in the shower and you blast music. No, you can have it hot, but you just blast music and you rage it all out, like just jam out in the shower and sing and blast it and feel good. And then yes, at the end, you can do like a 30 second to one minute like cold spurt at the end but in it you picture with the water like all the rage running down the drain it's a rage shower i can't picture well first of all where am i getting i guess i need like a boom box in the bathroom your speaker your phone but your phone's not that loud okay if i'm raging i want the music to be louder than i am okay yeah also you mentioned going and throwing ice cubes earlier when I was texting you. Oh yeah. That's something that I got from my therapist

while back or maybe even one of my kids therapists, one of our many therapists over the years. But it was you take ice cubes and then you just throw them down as hard as you can onto your driveway or your back porch or somewhere where they can really like. Safer than rocks. A cold shower, I really just can't. Wait, the cold thing is at the end. You don't have to do that. You can take a normal rage shower and it's just you're washing the bad mood away. Yeah. A shower really does do wonders. I journaled this morning that washing hair. I thought you were going to say, journal in the shower this morning.

Even my waterproof journal and my waterproof speaker. No, I washed my hair this morning and then journaled after it right before. I had a few minutes before I had to leave for work. And I was like, I'm going to use this few minutes to journal because I'm trying to do my morning pages again. And I, what is it about fresh hair? It changes everything. Do you like to wash your hair in the morning or at night?

in the morning because it's fresh. So I, okay, for the look of your hair, right? Yeah. So I totally agree. There is something like recently, the last couple months, because I've either gone on a walk at night or worked out at night or something that has had me take a shower at night. The best getting ready for bed and going to sleep feeling with wet hair and feeling like totally clean, I think for my mental health, that is better. but for like my hair looking good yeah I want to like wash it right before I go out well I can't wash my hair every day now I'll take showers before bed but I will put a shower cap on you could wash your hair

every day yeah but I don't want to yeah that would take no no no no no no no no that would take so much time to wash my hair every single day my friend because my hair doesn't air dry did you do it when you're younger no I washed my hair every single day growing up is that not crazy well does your hair air dry normalish you can tell When it's air dry, you'd probably be like, oh, it's an air dry day. Okay. Well, some people just naturally can do that. Like, my friend Luke married a girl and she showers and washes her hair every single night

and, like, crawls in bed, but then wakes up and her hair is like perfect. Oh, you know, no, no, that's not me. She's lucky. But every night, she cannot, no matter what time it is, where they are, she will be taking a shower. I feel like that's a norm, like a new thing. Like, growing up, I feel like everybody was washing their hair every day. And then all of a sudden people are like, it's not good for you. Or like, you don't have to live this way.

Well, I sort of trained my hair to go many, many days without washing because we heard that's what was good for you. And then now I'm hearing the opposite. Yeah, do you see who you see on TikTok that now they say, oh, I told you. I thought your hair girl told you not to use dry shampoo or something. Oh, that's a hair. Yeah, that was a hairstylist that, yes, I've gone to that said that. And also, I recently saw on TikTok, wash your hair more. Wash your hair more.

Because of the dirt and something that's produced. in our heads. If you think about it, it's kind of gross. Yes. We thought like it was doing more damage, washing it too much, but actually keeping that clean is keeping the roots healthier and going to give you a stronger, better hair. I don't know. And like, I'm sure someone will counter that with something else.

It was just something I saw in passing. But whoever told it to me on TikTok, I trusted her. Did you ever get lice as a kid? No. Stevenson just asked me that the other day because he's had lice once and we had to completely shave his head. And he's like, what if I get it again? And I said, well, it's been years.

But also for a boy, it's not a big deal. You can just shave your head. And you don't have tons of hair stuff. We had to have some lice person come to our house and she completely took it out. And then she looked in my hair and Stashear's hair, everybody in the house. And we were good to go. I went to an elementary school at one point where we had like weekly lice checks. I think that's probably normal?

Like the nurse would come to our classrooms and they would check all of our hair. Then what if someone had it? Would they be obvious? Yes. Like, hey, you over there? She's coming with me. Yeah. That's...

Found one. They should do it under the radar. I had lice, but it was in the summer. You never asked me if I did have lice, but I volunteered that information. No, I want to know. Sorry. When you asked that question, I was like, that's so weird, Stevenson just asked me about that. And I don't think I've ever had it.

But I had that thought because they say that lice likes clean hair. I think that might be an urban legend to make people feel better. Oh, you're so clean. Yeah. Don't worry. It's because you're so clean. Yeah. But it is annoying for a girl because you have to get rid of everything,

like every hair bow, every headband, every scrunchy, every anything, you have to get rid of all of it. Is that what you can't do? Yeah, all my headbands. Never wore a headband again. That's a lot. Anyway, riveting. A win is a win.

A win is a win. I don't care which I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Cliver Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in. sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined.

I'm telling you I had nothing to my name. I didn't know a single person in New York. And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet. This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it, who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of. Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us.

They're not selfish. They're so important. They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually show up better everywhere. We lead better. We're better friends. We're better relationships and collaborators and all those things because we have passion about the things we're doing.

Now I know you have something for us regarding, like, cursing, which I'm very curious about, because I used to not cuss ever, ever. When did you say your first curse word? I mean, I didn't even think in cussing. Wait.

Like, I just didn't, like, cuss words didn't pop into my head. I was never a cuss person until... A cursor? How do you say it? You sound so sweet. I was never a cuss person. I didn't even think cuss words. I just didn't.

Which was like, gosh, darn it. Which was good because on the radio, we couldn't cuss. And there were times for like, one time I spilled my coffee all over the board and the mics are recording. And I was recording something. It wasn't live. But this was way back in my early radio careers to like 2006 or something. And I said, oh, shoot. And like, today?

me now? I probably been like, oh, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F, F. You know? So, like, that was me then and this is me now. And I think the only thing that switched was, I don't know, I went through a lot and then realized that sometimes saying a cussword helped me feel better. I vividly remember my first cuss word. Okay, when was it? Me and two of my friends walked to Publix. Don't ask me why. And then our walk back, we were like, okay, they were cussers. I was not. And so we all took turns saying different cuss words. I think they were trying to get me to be bad.

Join the club. Yeah. Yeah. And then it all went uphill from there because, according to research, cussing is a sign of authenticity. And people who, which goes along with authenticity, I think they mean like more authentic in their personality and who they are, but also are less likely to be liars, more likely to tell the truth.

Maybe I always wanted to be, and I wasn't in my authentic self. And now look at you. Because my parents tell me the story. I don't fully remember it, but when I was really little, they were hosting a dinner party. And like a jet flew over our house, like a fighter jet. You know, have you ever had those fly over? They're so loud. And I looked up in the middle of it.

And I go, what the F was? that? I mean, and I said it and I was three or something. Did you say F or the? Yeah, I said the F word. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Like my parents cussed. I obviously heard the F word. No, I said, well, I'm not going to say it here. Yeah, yeah. I mean, he used to be authentic. He used to get beep it, but I was like, what the fuck was that? Oh, you're so bad. And then, um, my parents loved retelling that story, of course, because they thought it was so cute that I did that. And then, and I was like what? That's so crazy because I just wasn't a cusser. And I don't know if I thought I was being bad if I cussed or I didn't think I was better than anybody else, but I just didn't.

Does your sister did your sister? I don't recall her cussing. Now my half sister and my brother, they cuss. All the time. Like with my dad, they'd be having conversations and they all be like, cuss, cuss, cuss. As an adult, would you curse around your mom? No. I didn't cuss so recently. My mom passed away before you started. When I became a cuss person. She missed. it. My mom quit cussing. Now, she used to cuss, and then when she really found Jesus, like, her- And Jesus doesn't cuss. Well, she just changed a lot about her. It was like a dramatic shift. Like, and I think how she spoke was part of that. I think there were plenty of Christians that cuss. That's not the point. I think for her, she had to make some changes. And that was one thing I saw.

Because I remember one time I missed the bus and she was not happy. And she slammed the dishwasher and said some cusses. words. I mean, I remember my parents cussing for sure, and I've cussed in front of my kids now. Because you're being authentic. I want to read this because, just to give the whole picture, it says multiple studies have shown a positive correlation between higher profanity use and honesty and authenticity, though the link is not absolute. Cursing is often described by researchers as an unfiltered and genuine expression of emotion, which can signal a person's willingness to prioritize candor over politeness. So what I hear in that is people that cuss are more willing to prioritize being themselves

than being nice and polite, you know? Yeah. Which I appreciate. I think that there's a overuse of it at times that can be a bit much. But for me, occasionally, it's just very fitting. Yeah. It's like nothing else works as well. Nothing.

You know? Nothing. Nothing. Well, I'm proud of you that you're now a cusp. I'm now a cuss person. I know. My mom doesn't know. My dad maybe knew a little bit. Yeah, because how recent was this transition? I'm trying to think of when it really started. It had to been 2020, 2021. Was your ex a cuss person? Not really, but we have become cuss people. Together. Okay. Like sometimes in our co-parenting, we'll say it. One time he called me out for like, oh, one time. One time. Okay, how do we say this? Because he wasn't being, he was kind of, I need to keep this in my side of the street.

My side of the street. You know how sometimes, I want to make sure I tell it my side. I was being a little overly colorful with my language. But I was fired up about something, and he had to let me go. And I was like, oh, you know, now you're too good. Oh, he was like, I'm hanging up. He was like, we just need to talk later.

Like, I don't appreciate your energy. And I was like, what? Okay, next time you say a word or two, remind me of this. Because you're not going to appreciate it. It was around then that we decided we have our code word, which is pickle. And we haven't had to use pickle in forever. In retrospect? In retrospect, I do think I was a little heightened.

Okay. Like, I was here and I could have brought it down to hero. And you could have. But he didn't need to be all, you know, hullyer than now. on me. Which that's me, my defensive self-talking. I thought I was going to say on my side of the street. That was not my side of the street. I take it back. I would say all of this to his face. I think I was defensive in that moment of like, well, who do you think you are? And you say these words too, so just wait. But now I don't feel that way. Like if he does it. There's not going to be

revenge. No. That was a while back. Yeah. I think I remember this. Yeah. I didn't do the best job of saying on my side of the street. That was the thought. That was the thought. It was the thought. I was a that counts. I know, but right before I told the story, I'm like, stay on my side of the street. And then I still called out his, because I still was still, I was still, I guess when I think back on it, I'm still perplexed by why he went that route. But that's okay. We all have this moments. Is Alex a cuss person? Occasionally when it's right. I probably throw them in a little more than he does, but he's dabbled. Well, good. That means that he's authentic. He is. And this isn't all encompassing, obviously. Like, like you said,

Sometimes people overuse. There is a too far. And also, if you don't cuss, it doesn't mean that you're a liar. Yeah. At all. But it is just interesting. I have a book called Swearing is Good for you.

I've been meaning to read it for like 10 years. Oh, you haven't even read it yet. I did start it. But then it was just a lot about the research of cursing and language. And it just, I think I got the gist of it from the title. You know. Another reset.

I know I shared the rest. rage shower, but another thing you can do for a reset is eat something cold and crunchy. That would not do it for me. It wouldn't? Not rage. If I'm overwhelmed, yes. Yeah, but let's just, like, you're real mad and you get a carrot and you dip in some hummus and then you bite down.

Like, that wouldn't, you'd be like, nothing, chips, salsa, queso? I don't think that if I'm angry, I want to eat. I'm one of those people who have a lot of emotions, my appetite isn't there. What I'm hearing from you is that, like, the, like, crunch. and the bite of it is going to be like, oh. But I think I'd rather throw ice or the scream in the shower or something. What about chew ice? Do you chew ice?

No, but my husband is always chewing ice. If there is a cup somewhere with ice in it, he's going to eat it. That's so manly. Masculine. Yeah. What a man. What a man. I hear that chewing ice also gives you gas.

Really? Yes. Why? You're sucking down a lot of air. Oh, well, that's a good deterrent. Yeah. I don't have a problem with chewing ice. You don't tell him?

Like, hey, baby, that's going to give you gas. I think I've told him that before. And he's like, I can't stop. He loves it. He gets it from his dad. His dad's chews. Like, if you go to a restaurant and you get a drink with ice in it, they drink the drink, but then they eat all of the ice.

Oh, my gosh. Yes. Yes. And like, if we go to like, especially somewhere with good ice, like I'm pretty sure Chick-fil-A has good ice. Oh, yeah. If we go there. Yeah, Sonic.

If we go there and we both get drinks and he finishes his ice and my ice is sitting there, who will have my ice too. Yes. His dad just got a sonic ice maker, like a ice maker that makes. Oh, pellets. Yeah. So probably because he wants to eat the ice. That's something that like pregnant people are supposed to like, which I don't know why that is,

but I do hear they do like it. Probably is the crunch. Nothing sounds good. Oh. Oh, yeah. And it like gives them, maybe the cold. Coldness feels good. Do you pop your knuckles?

Yes. Okay. Me too. And one of the things that my boyfriend really, really is holding on to, even though the internet says otherwise, is that popping knuckles causes arthritis. And like, he won't let his kids do it. And he's, anytime I do it, he's like, stop. And I'm like, have you researched this?

And he's like, yeah. And what did he find? Well, he finds that it gives arthritis. And I'm like, but I see here it doesn't. It's a myth. I feel like. So what do we believe? don't know, but he's just so, he doesn't let it go. He's not budging on it. It's just not.

Couple thoughts. I, one, pop my knuckles like 20 times a day. I love it. It feels so good. To not do that would have, you would have to have so much self-control. I also love when my husband cracks my knuckles. I bet you do. I bet you do. So, but also, I feel like, he's so good at cracking my knuckles. Tell us more. Anyway, what I also was going to say is that if it really did cause arthritis, I think more of us would have it. Or sometimes I do think I have arthritis. But it's beside the point. It's not from cracking my knuckles. It can't be. But I just feel like there'd be more warnings about it. Like I just feel like that's something we heard more a little and like we grew out of it. Believed it. Yeah. So if that really was and I feel like at our physicals, our doctors would be like,

and you're not cracking your knuckles, right? You know? Do your wrists pop? No. That's my party trick. It'll do it every time. You're like the lady at church that they do the bells? I'm like, they both will pop.

This one's not as loud, but it's still popping. Wow. So if you are in miscogeniality, that's what you would do for your talent. That would be my talent. No, my talent would, okay, that could be one of my talents. My other one would be you can line up a lot of, different catchups and I will tell you which one is Heinz. That's pretty sick.

Yeah. So you have a backup talent. Yeah. Okay. All right. Well, that's cool. That's in there. However you're feeling today, if you need to take a beat, throw some ice cubes,

take a rage shower, eat something crunchy. Curse. Curse. Be a cuss person. Yeah. Be a cuss person. Is that what I said? I think so.

Yeah. It's true. You know, just know that you're not alone. If that is you, we are with you, and we hope you have the day. You need to have it. Bye. Bye. Hi, I'm Iris Palmer, host of the Against All Odds podcast. Every week, I'm sitting down with exceptional people who have broken barriers, even when the odds were stacked against them.
