Part one. Behind the scenes with a member of the show. Are you ready, Eddie? I'm ready, Morgan. Ready, Freddie, Eddie? Ready, Freddy? It's like a new version of Are you Ready Freddy, but are you ready, Eddie? What is, Are You Ready Freddy?

I don't know. It's a saying. Is that like TikTok or something? No, are you ready Freddy? It's old. That's old. They used to be like Ready Eddie. People would say that or like Eddie Spaghetti.

They'd say that all the time. Eddie spaghetti. But you never heard, Are You Reddy, Freddie, Freddy, Eddie. I mean, yeah, kind of. I don't know. Not really. Well, as you guys are hearing, Eddie is on the podcast as we can.

What's up, guys? This is awesome. I love this podcast. It's so much fun. Yeah, you say that. But then every time I ask, you're like, oh, dang. That's not true. That's not true.

Because inconveniently the times that we do it, it's just kind of like always, every single week, like, you know this. We're stacked. And to make time for this is tough. So like Morgan always comes up to me and goes, hey Eddie. And I'm like, here we go. What is it? Is it my turn?

She's like, yeah, what day do you want to do it? And that's the hard part. Like, it's not doing it. I love doing it. It's just like, okay, when do we not work till one? Yeah. Like, when do I not do this? And so.

When's the time? It really is. But when we do it, it's fun. Listen, I'm like a kid going up to all of you guys. I'm like, hey. I know. Like super nervous to ask. You should see me.

I do it with everybody. You don't know this, but we've all talked about you. What? On how you approach us. Seriously? Yeah, yeah. Because I went to Scova the other day and I was like, hey, Scoop, I needed something. And he goes, okay, Morgan, what do you need?

It's like a little kid because you feel like you're going to get in trouble. I get it. I get it. And it's not fair for you, but it's funny. It is funny because we know exactly when you're coming. I didn't know you guys all talked about that. Dang. Okay.

Hey, lunchbox. Call that. What do you want, Morgan? I just got called out. I wasn't ready for that. Okay, well, how are you? How's dad life? Good, man.

Dad life's challenging, as always. But it's good. I think out of our four kids, like two, we've gotten, like, pretty good under control. Like, their lives are good. I was going to say, what is that mean? What is it under control mean? Meaning, like, we don't have to, like, focus on things to work on. Yeah.

Like, behavioral stuff, school stuff. Like, two of them have gotten to the point where, like, thank you. you for being easy. And there are two other ones that are like, you are making our life very difficult right now. And does this have something to correlate with age? Or is it personalities? No, personalities. Got it.

Two are easy going and very self-dependent. Like, they'll figure it out. Don't need you. I can figure it out. If I need your help, I will come to you and ask you. And other ones are like, I don't know, I don't know. Like, I don't know how to do my homework. Like, what do you mean you don't know how to do your homework?

I don't get it. And then when you explain it to them, they're just like, I still don't get it. And it's like, yes, you're not listening. You're not. And it's frustrating. We had one of the, the only reason I'm saying that is because we had that last night. Got it. Two of them last night where it was just frustrating because like we've, we've helped them with their homework.

And then it's almost like when they say help me with your homework. It's their time to space out and just be like, all right, they'll do it for me. You know what I mean? Instead of like really help me because we're telling them what they need to know, they're just not listening. I can't admit when I was a kid and I was doing my math. homework, which I hated. I was so, so bad at math, even though my math teacher doesn't say that, but I, I remember. And I would sit there at the table and my mom was so good at it. And she'd try and explain, she's like, here, this is what it looks like. I'm like, can you please

just do it? It hurts my brain. Like, I just don't understand. That's what they do. And it's like, you have to learn this. We're not here to do it for you. But on top of that, you know what? You never learn it. I really don't even know how to do it. I was going to say that like, and you think about all the things that you're teaching them, right? And you're like, okay, you're not going to need this in like five years. You might need this, but you're probably not going to need this. That's what one of them was telling me now. Like, when am I going to use chemistry, dad? Like, that doesn't matter. That's not the point. It's so true, though. It is true, but it's not the point. Like, and I told him, I said, this is my oldest one. I'm like, your only job right now, your only reason for you

to live right now is to go to school and succeed at it. That's it. Yeah. You got nothing else going on for you, buddy. Like, this is what you need to focus on. So like, do it the best. And You can. Okay, but how have they still not transitioned a lot of these classes to be more real-life scenarios, right? Like, you really aren't going to use chemistry. So you will use chemistry in certain aspects of your life in scenarios. Sure, like, how much salt and pepper, like, do you put in food?

Or, like, quartz to cups or ounces, whatever. Sure. Give me the real-life scenario versions of these, and I think people would be so much more interested. But it's almost like the design is for, like, in case you will be a scientist. Yeah. Like this is your chance to learn more about that so that you can even think about being a scientist. Okay, but besides us who do.

But probably 95% of us are like, I don't want to do this. Yes, but like think of us, like the easy trivia, right? Yeah. I can't recall 90% of the stuff that I learned pre-high school. Correct. High school is when I kind of. Okay. You've had many more years to play easy trivia on me.

No, no, but we all went to high school. Like we all did four years of high school. I know. But do you see what I'm saying? Like pre high school though, do you remember much from that that you actually learned? I don't remember crap. Like high school is when I really started to understand different things that you were teaching me. But up until then, I don't remember now as an adult.

Yeah, but you won't be ready for the stuff in high school unless you master the stuff in middle school in elementary. It's a scam. Because seriously, I mean, you're right. The system is so flawed and we're not going to get serious about this. But it really is because, like, I have one of my kids, he's going to do something physical. Like, there's nothing. He's not going to be a scientist. Like, he's not, and not that he's not able to.

I just, you know, from the very beginning of, like, their existence, what they're going to be. One of them's really funny. He's going to be an entertainer. Another one, he's going to work with his body. Like, he can build a house. The other three cannot build a house. Like they won't build a house. So you just kind of see that.

But if you can go into school and being like, all right, this is what he's going to do. So let's focus in on how to build a car, like how to make a house, like how to change an engine in a car. Like, build an engine, whatever it is because it's obvious. Even to me as a parent, I know what they're, like roughly, I kind of know what they're going to be. That is generally a category of where they might look into. Sure. I don't know exactly what. They're going to be like, I don't know if the entertainer is going to be a musician or he's going to be an actor or he's going to be what, but he's going to entertain somehow and do that.

And the other one is going to be something. He's going to carry big things and like deal with big machinery. Interesting. I don't know how or what, but so like, yeah, you're right. Like, go to school that way. Yeah, like lean into the things that you're good at. But I suppose this is where it comes into play that like your interest changed so much over. time that they're trying to help you have multiple interests.

Be versatile. As you get older, you may do something that you never thought you would do, right? But didn't you always know what you were going to do? I mean, once I hit high school, yes. Okay. Yes. But like before that, I mean, no, I want to be a singer. I also wanted to entertain.

Yeah. Be a marine biologist was something I wanted to do. Me too. Did you know that? Really? Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Like, I love the beach.

Why do we all want to be marine biologists? Because we love the beach and we love sea life. Like sea life is just amazing. And it's probably because it feels so exotic in a way. Yeah, because we don't see it every day. Like we see birds. We see like squirrels every day. But we don't see a sea turtle.

Like every day. We don't see a dolphin. The dolphins are amazing. Yeah. Yeah. That's so true. So there was moments where I had some interesting interests that I never evolved into. But funny enough, like the thing I do look back on that marine biologist, I wanted to go to

it was a school in Texas, actually. Corpus Christi? Yes. Yeah. Texas A&M Corpus Christi. Because originally I was looking at, I really wanted to go to UT. Eddie, don't ask me why. I don't know where any of this came from.

No, Texas. I don't know where any of that came from. But I was like dead set. And then I was like, oh, out of state tuition, that's a lot of money. I can't, I can't do that. Did your parents tell you that? Or did you already know you weren't going to do that? When I was doing research is when I figured, I was like, I'm sorry.

What is that price tax? Crazy. Yeah. Yeah. So I saw that. I was like, never mind. But then I was still kind of, the marine biologist thing was still kind of floating. And I was like, oh, Corpus Christi, I was like, oh, also out of Texas state price tag.

And it just kept happening that way. That's why I ended up going to K state. But it was weird that I really wanted to go to Texas. And I still to the state can't tell you why. I have no idea. So all that to say, the schooling, there's a reason. I guess we really don't know what we're going to be until we do. But there are some people where you know early on and it's probably going to be one path or another.

Yeah. At least when it comes to creative or intellectual, that's a pretty easy one to figure out early on, whether they're more creative and they'll be in a creative space versus the science. Sure. Like educational, intellectual side. The book smart. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I'll have one of those. One of those.

Out of four. That's okay. Just one. And you're also a creative, though, so that makes sense. I know. I know. And my wife is the smart one, you know, so that does make sense. But I don't know.

It makes parenting hard because school is so hard for a lot of kids. It was hard for me. You know, like my parents were in town. My mom was in town and my family was in town for Thanksgiving. And we were talking about just kind of like their school and how it's a couple of them were having trouble with it, whatever. And she was like, you guys were impossible. Like you guys had a lot of trouble with school. And I'm like, you know, we don't remember a lot of stuff.

So I'm like, how much trouble? And she went down. Oh my gosh. Like you'd come home with. Fs and we'd be like how we're going to get you out of this? How are you going to, like, she said like one of you guys, like, we didn't know if you were going to like pass the year. Oh my gosh.

I'm like, wow, that's intense. You're like, dang, I didn't remember it all that. Yeah. Because school is hard for some people, like, and school is easy for some people. Yeah. Well, and some people care about school. Some people don't. Correct.

There's so many. Variables. Yeah, when you're a kid and that's happening. Now, knowing that you have discalcula. A terrible disease. Did you also have dyslexia? I can't remember. Yeah.

Okay. Well, she said that I had dyslexia. Although, and I think there's kind of some truth to it because I have learned how to work with it. Yeah. Basically, like, I have to read a sentence ahead for me to be able to read, like. To comprehend it? No. No, for me to just read it.

Hmm. Yeah, so you're definitely reading differently. So I'm definitely, I've definitely taught myself how. to read differently than everyone else. Okay. So I guess I am dyslexic a little bit. But as far as like backwards stuff, I don't think so. Yeah.

Different versions. Sure. I was curious if that finding out that diagnosis now has helped you with the kids because I do think it can be passed down. Yeah. Yeah. So do you feel like it has been passed down to any of your kids? No, no, because they're a lot smarter than I am as far as math goes.

Like they're The only time that they don't get it Is when they don't study Whatever they're supposed to study Yeah You know like you do flash cards and whatever Like They will be I'll be given like 30 minutes here

Here's your flash cards Like study them And then I'll test you in 30 minutes And I'll know which ones they didn't study Because it's the same ones that they didn't study And then I put those aside And then we don't have to do the ones that you got anymore And then I have like you know

10 more cards And then they're just like Then they just nail it Once they focus on those 10 cars like, oh yeah, I got those. Like, it's done. I could never do that as a kid. Yeah, that's true.

Nine times seven, I have to do my fingers. Look, nine times seven, 63. I still don't understand your finger trick. Yes, you do. Yes, you do. Look, put your hands out. Okay, I'm putting my hands out. All five fingers, all ten fingers are out.

Whatever. You have your ten fingers. Your hands are out, okay? Like you're saying like, don't touch me. Got it. Okay. So give me nine times whatever. nine times four okay get your fourth finger one two three four okay put it down now separate now read

the one you put down is your spacer so i have eight no no no it's your spacer what are your first three numbers oh three okay and what are the other numbers five no 35 no no the the finger you put down is your spacer that's the space okay so separate it three and six 36 got it okay try again try Now put your hands up. Yeah. Okay. Nine times eight. Okay.

Put your eighth finger down. Oh, 72. Boom. Got it. Now I see it. Yeah. Now I get it. Okay.

I don't know who taught me that, but it's genius. But it only works for nine. Just nines. Because nines are hard. Like, nines are tough. They're just up there. Like, tens are the easiest. No, no.

One's the easiest. Or zero. I was going to say zero because they're all zero. Zero is the easiest. One's probably the second easiest. Ten is the third easiest. Nines are hard, man. That's funny.

And then twos are pretty easy. You just double it. Just single up. If there's nine on the math test, Eddie will know it. Got it. Okay, besides school, is there anything else going on? No, just, you know, just getting ready for Christmas. Yeah.

How are you feeling? Well. Pretty good. I mean, it's just always a, it's just expensive time of year for daddy. Okay, now that you've said, Daddy, I am going to take a quick break here. We're going to come back with that. There's two golden rules that any man should live by. Rule one, never mess with a country girl.

You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that, trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends, Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck. I thought, how could this happen to me?

The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe. On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts,

My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with him one day, and I was like, and dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot.

He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're... You're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore. It's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right, it wouldn't be that.

Had to jump out of that. Awkwardness this happened last week and too. Hey, my five-year-old, he calls me daddy. I understand that, but you're saying it right now, it's expensive to hear. It's expensive for daddy. Oh, my gosh. Okay, Christmas is expensive because of all the things you're doing or because of the exciting stuff that's happening on Christmas Day.

All of it. All of it. The presents are expensive. Although my kids don't ask for very expensive things. Like, and if the rule is if you want something expensive, that's all you're going to get. Like, so if you want a PS5, that's way too expensive. So we will do like a PS5 for two of you. And then the other two can have, you know, they want Legos. Cool. You can have three. sets of Legos or you have Legos and two other things. Have you not done the route of asking Santa for the expensive things and then, you know, mom and dad gets, because I very, very much remember my Christmas is there would be gifts from mom and dad, but then there would be gifts from Santa. And they differentiated a little bit. What? I feel like you're leading me into a...

No, I'm genuinely asking. Yeah, but... Like, you had, you know... Santa and I have the same bank account. Okay. Like, Santa's... I know, I'm just asking, is there a route going that way? Santa's bank is in the same bank I use in the North Pole.

I wasn't leading you, but I see what you're doing? Like, what are you talking about? I know, I'm just saying, is there a way, like... Like, Santa and I, we talk. Santa and I talk about what we're getting the kids. I know, but Santa doesn't always able to get the things that the kids want. So maybe asking for the expensive things from Santa. You're saying, I see what you're saying.

Yeah. Put that on Santa's list and sometimes Santa just can't get that for you. And then like some year they get a big surprise because they do get it. I mean, that's what happened with me. Like some years I would get their really cool Santa stuff. And some years I wouldn't. Maybe because it sold out or, you know, whatever. And then your parents, and then you understood that Santa maybe just couldn't get it that year.

Yeah. And then it was on Santa versus it was on like my parents. Yeah. That's genius. Just, you know. I've never thought of that because like, they're really cool with the rule. Yeah.

Of like, you know what? No, it's okay. I really don't want anything big. Get me these four smaller things. You know? So like they're cool. And then my wife and I are very easy. Like we don't, we don't do a lot.

You guys still don't exchange gifts to you. We do, but it's more like, hey, what do you want? Like, I really want this like perfume. Okay. What's it called? Got it. Really easy. Yeah, because like we spent, we wasted too many years of like, cool, thank you.

I'll never wear that. Thank you. That's cool. Like I don't really wear that kind of jewelry. Well, for a while there, you guys were doing like vacation for each other, right? Are you still doing that? Yes. Okay.

We did that for like birthdays. Instead of birthday gifts, we did a vacation and stuff like that. So is it bleated into Christmas also or not? Not really. Christmas is kind of more like, just like give me something that you want, two things that you want. Okay. And then we tell them. That's it.

All right. Yeah. Okay. But yes. That's expensive. And then just we go to Texas every year. Yeah. And so.

You don't drive either. You fly. We fly. Dang. We fly, but that's all like airline miles. Most of the time it's airline miles. That's helpful. We kind of save for that to have airline miles because it's six of us on an airplane.

Yeah. So it gets very expensive. How do the kids travel? Good. Yeah. Yeah, great because it's all iPads and technology. Technology. They get to sit with it for a few hours.

It's an hour and a half when technology and we're cool with it. And then they love ordering the drink. You know, they love getting a Coke. And a little snack. Yes, getting the snack on there. They love that. They love flying with their little backpacks and roller suitcases. Have you ever taken them on road trips?

Like a long road trip yet? Did drive? Yeah. We drive to the beach, which is like seven hours. Okay. Which is long enough. We used to, listen, as a kid, we used to pack up this. We had this huge van.

And we got pulled over one time because I was running around in the van. When the cop was behind you and saw you running around? Because it was like one of those old school that had the little curtains on the window. No way. You guys had one of those? Oh, yeah. Four daughters and Paulus all up. My sister's played, my older sisters played volleyball.

So we'd be traveling to the tournaments. And then my sister and I, the younger ones would just be, you know, along for the ride. But you did travel softball too, right? Oh, yeah. But we have a significant age gap. So they were in high school when we were like babies. So we'd travel all the time with them. Do you have a bed in there?

I don't think of it. But it was roomy. There was so much room. We had little TVs. That is so cool. It was fun of it. We got pulled over. But I say that because, like, I remember.

I remember, gosh, we rode trip to Florida from Kansas one year. What's that? 10 hours? Oh, no, longer. Really? Like 18, 20. Because Tennessee, Nashville to Wichita, like my hometown is 11 hours. Dang.

So you got to go even further to Florida. Way further. Mm-hmm. And we've roared trip a lot. So we did that a lot as kids. Yeah. We've talked about doing like Chicago maybe like, because to go to like some Cubs games or maybe like a football game, Cincinnati, which is not that far.

Is Cincinnati eight hours? No. No, it's like four hours. I looked at Ohio and one of the big cities was four and one of them was eight. Yeah, Cleveland is further. That's it. Yes. Geography.

I've looked at all those too. And I remember when I was a kid, we did an Amtrak train. Yeah. Which is like, I'll never forget that trip. You know, like we did it from San Antonio to L.A. And it was really, really cool. So I've been looking into maybe doing that sometime. A little cross-country train trip.

Yes. Those are fun. Because you can, like, just. jump off and get back on? No, you have to stay on it, but you can go a cart. You can jump from cart to cart. Oh, okay. As the trains moving.

And they have like dinner carts. Yeah, you have like a restaurant cart. You have a hangout cart where like a bunch of just tables. And then you have like a TV cart. Yeah. Like yeah. And then you have like the where people sit. And then you have your room.

Like you have a cart with like hotel room. Like hotel rooms. Like little beds. Yeah, little beds. You know what's funny is I didn't, gosh, my first trip to New York, which was three or four years ago now. That was my first time. We had taken a train from Boston to New York.

That was my first time on a train. Awesome. And then when I was in New York, I was so excited for the subway. Everybody was like, it's so dirty. It's so gross. I was like, this is awesome. And I was like, can we go back on it? Did you get lost on it?

Like, did you go the wrong way? Oh, yeah, for sure. It's so confusing. Oh, because they're like, it's easy to figure out. I'm like, I was sitting there. I was like, no, no, no. I don't know where I am. Is this the orange or is this the blue?

What does that mean? But still, I was sitting there like happy. can be because I've never been on a train subway. Like those were very weird experiences. No, no, no. Like, we didn't grow up with trains. Like, we grew up with a cargo train going by. Like, they're carrying like dog food or something.

Yeah, like, I'd never been on one. I see them. Yeah. They're carrying tires. Like, we don't get on those. Yeah, so a train trip would be fun. To see a train where people are on, like it's pretty cool. Yeah.

There was in Austin around Christmas time. There was an old school train, like from the 40s. Fun. And it will. Like Polar Express style? Yeah, like Polar Express, and it only had like three carts, I think. But it would travel from you for like, you buy a ticket for like $80 or whatever. And it would travel just like 30 minutes down and 30 minutes back.

But you can like go in time, you know, to like an old school like train. That's so cool. Because really, I mean, that was almost the way to travel like back when, you know, the black and white days. The black. Your favorite. The movie days. Yeah, because you see like all these old baseball teams, like the Yankees would be playing the Minnesota Twins. and they would travel by train.

And they'd get off and everyone was excited to see them. And they'd wave. I do remember some of those old films you'd see that happening. Yeah. I am going to be, hopefully, if everything goes according to plan, with travel and winter travel. But I'm going overseas. For Christmas?

Yeah. Not for Christmas, right after Christmas for New Year. Really? Yeah. And I'll be taking a train from Brussels to Paris. Brussels. Belgium. No.

I was going to try to figure it out. Brussels to Paris. Yeah. And then we'll be flying to Barcelona for New Year's. Who's going? Me and one of my girlfriends, Julia, Cole. That's awesome. A little girls trip.

We're going to spend New Year's Eve in Barcelona. But for Christmas, I've always wanted to see the Brussels Christmas market. And so we get to go see that because it'll be right after. Holy crap. It's going to be like snowing. You're going to have like a white, well, white post Christmas. This is what I'm hoping. Like, right?

Yeah. That's what I think of. Like, I've always thought like one year I want to go to like Switzerland for Christmas. Yeah. That was also, we were looking at that one. This is the one that we can make work in the time frame that we had. But yeah, I'm freaking out. That is amazing.

And how long? It'll be a week, week trip. My parents are sad. They're like, we normally get you for a little bit longer. I was like, I know, guys, but I really want to take this trip. So I'm excited. That's really, really cool. So I'll be going on a train there.

What's the flight from, are you flying from Kansas? Yeah, from which I'll be flying into Chicago and then flying from Chicago to Brussels. And that flight's like nine hours. Yeah. I've never been on long. long flight. Me either. So this will be a, the longest flight I've ever done is Hawaii. Eight hours? Yeah. Seven hours, maybe? I think it was like seven. Well, that one, they break it up, right? Like, do you go to L.A. and then fly to Hawaii? The one that we did know, we flew direct from, I want to say it was like Las Vegas for Phoenix.

We had just talked about this. But it was like a seven-hour trip. So that's the longest I've ever done. Yeah, yeah. So I'm kind of freaking out a little bit. You can do that in a regular plane. But I think these over like these transatlantic flights or whatever, don't you have like more leg room or like kind of a recliner? Well, I don't know.

Eddie. Have you seen the prices that they go up? No. When you want to increase to go. Just to have like roomier leg room. Yeah. You guys spend like $150. Yeah, but I think it's worth it.

No. Right, for an 11-hour flight, I would think it's worth it. No, because it's the same, it's basically that you had to even increase to get a premium seat and it was the exact same as just a regular economy seat. But Bobby talks about like there's a bed in there. Okay, those are the first class and those upgrades are like $2,000. No, screw that. That's not worth it for me. Daddy can't afford that.

No, no, no. If I did one and it was like already relatively cheap flight, maybe, but no, I didn't increase. Do you wonder, like, if, like, is there privacy, like on those beds? Like a little curtain? Can you like? I don't think there's a current. I think people do. No chance.

How do you think people join the Mile High Club? Not everybody's doing it in the bathroom. No one does that. No one does that. Oh, people do. No one does that. They do. Especially on private planes.

Well, yeah, that's, yeah. But then, but you have pilots. Like, we tell a pilots, hey, don't look back here. I'm going to be hooking up more. Well, you're paying for them, so I don't think they care. I mean, I don't believe it. People do it. I don't believe in it because I've thought of it.

it like how is that possible like say the bathroom right that's like the bathroom isn't possible it's impossible that one's impossible one because people are looking at who's going in the bathroom and if you see one person go in there and then two minutes later another person goes in there and no one came out everyone's going to be like oh we know what's going it's not possible and then it's so small in there yeah you're going to make lots of noise regardless if you're trying to be quiet you're going to rock the plane i'm with you on the bathroom portion i don't okay well where else you're But I do think first class and private, I think that's how people join them. First class only of the bed is in there.

Yeah. But I've never seen that with my own eyes. I've never seen like those. I mean, I've seen them on TikTok. People literally like recline and they're in there and they have their little eye masks and fancy jammies. There's no way people are doing it in there. People are sleeping. There's their overnight flights.

There's no way. That can't be allowed. I mean, it's not loud. But that's part of the adventure of it. I feel like the flight attendant at any moment can be like, hey, can you. Oh. What is happening here? And then you'd be in trouble.

You're right. You're taking a massive risk, but I think people do it. I personally have it because I've also never even flown in a first class seat. I have. It's pretty cool. Yeah, I mean, obviously I didn't pay for it. But it's pretty cool. Like, you get to ask for whatever you want.

I flew one time first class with a professional baseball player named Wade Boggs. And he was sitting red next to me. And it's awesome. Wade Boggs was like he was awesome and he was crazy. Yeah, look up Wade Boggs. And he was crazy. He was crazy. He had stories of him drinking like 120 beers on one flight.

Oh, yeah. He looks wild. He's got the stash. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I saw him, I think we were flying to, I think we might have been. I don't remember where we were, but I saw him at the gate, started talking to him. He was kind of, he was cool. He talked back, you know, he was receptive of our conversation.

And then we ended up just sitting next to each other in first class. And so he would get a beer and be like, before we, as soon. as he sat down. Excuse me, miss, can I, can I have a Miller Light? And she's like, yeah, sure. And do you want anything? I was like, sure, I'll take a miller light. And so we both got beers like as soon as we sat down. And then he goes, man, man, before you even like head over there, just give me another one. Because by the time you come back around, I'll be done with this. He must have drank 30 beers. Seriously? On an hour and a half flight. And then what's even cooler, I don't think I've, I don't know if I've ever told the story. But what's even cooler

is that we were going to the same event. So that's kind of why he was cool. Like, oh, you're playing this thing, whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we were going to a country club where they were going to have a pre-reception for this golf tournament. And we separated. As soon as we landed, we separated. Like, me and Bobby went in one car and Wade Boggs went another.

And when he got there, he had two cases of Miller Light. Like big cases. Miller Light is his favorite. That's his favorite. Cases, 24 packs. He walks in the country club. with two 24 packs of Miller Light and he goes at the bar and says here will you write the name wait on these these are my beers so whenever I asked for one just get him from these

the guy's like we have beers here I was gonna say wouldn't they have had that for him yes but that's the kind of guy who was which is awesome like that's my first class story it was so much fun that's hilarious and I got to ask him all kinds of questions like where did you live like when you were in Boston like did you live he's like I live in like I'm my house in Florida Like, I just had an apartment in Boston. How long did he play baseball for? Forever. I don't know.

So he's super wealthy? I don't know. Because he was playing when, like, in the 90s, 80s, 90s? I don't know, like, how well they were paid in the 80s and the 90s. Yeah. Now baseball players get paid a ton of money. Yeah. But I don't know what it was like then.

Did he keep playing through the early 2000s? No. No, I think he was done like in the 90s. And then I think now he just like coaches a high school team. I was going to say, did you ask him if he has, like, a job now? Yeah, yeah, yeah, when, and this was a while back. This must have been like eight, eight years ago. But then he was coaching a high school team in Tampa.

Huh. Yeah. And I asked him to like, do your kids know who you are? He's like, nah, they don't give a crap. That's always the case with anybody famous. They don't care who I am. But picture with Boggs. It's just like, no, they don't care.

That's not a thing to them. That's a cool first class story. Now I just want to sit in first class so I have a cool story. Because, like, the people that are up there. I know. I couldn't justify it. I barely could justify like buying my flight to go over there. Right.

I cannot justify paying for a first class ticket. That's crazy. You're right though. You're going to say like people up there, they look like they all have good stories. Yeah. Or they're just like one, they got a lot of money so they probably do have good stories. Or they're probably famous because that's the people that fly in first class. Yeah.

Besides the one person that got upgraded. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. So that's probably also where people fall in love. So, you know, I'll be back in mind. I don't think so. I'm telling you, I just sat next to Wade Boggs one time.

The other time I was an older lady. You did kind of fall in love with Wade and Wade Boggs. You had a really cool moment. It was a very cool story. It was a very cool story. I have his number too, but I've texted it a couple times. He didn't respond. Did you get it on the first class flight?

No, I don't know. It was later. I'm telling him we spent the whole weekend together. That's funny. But it all started on that first class flight. See? Bromance. You did fall in love.

It's just a different kind of love. Yeah. Love happens in first class. Okay, well... I don't think so, but... I have more to ask you about. We'll be right back. There's two golden rules

that any man should live by. Rule one, never mess with a country girl. You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends...

The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target.

Woo, woo, woo, woo. My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day, and I was like, and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry. about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved.

And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat, just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right, it wouldn't be that.

This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctored this particular test twice in someone, correct? I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Sunlight's the greatest disinfectant.

I'm talking to people like award-winning actress, producer, and director, Eva Langoria. I think I had like $200 in my, say, savings account. And my mom goes, what are you going to do? And I was like, I'll figure it out. We got a one-bedroom apartment for like $400 a month and we all could not afford. Like,

I was like, how am I going to make $100 a month? I'm opening up like I've never before.

Listen to Against All Odds with Iris Palmer as part of the MyCultura podcast network, available on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Well, we didn't get a talk in all of that. So you did say that your mom came down for Thanksgiving. We went on some random. We always get sidetracked.

We do. It's okay. And they're fun. So it's fine. But your mom came down for Thanksgiving. Did your brother also? Yeah, everyone did. My mom, my sister, my brother.

A lot of fun. It was so much fun. How are you guys doing first holiday? Without my dad? Yeah. It was different for sure. There were moments where we all get a little sad. And especially when we sat and ate, that was kind of like, oh, man.

You know, we tried the turkey. And everyone was like, gosh, the turkey's so good. Like, dad would have this turkey. My dad was a foodie. Like, he loved food. Oh, that's where that comes from for you. Yes. Oh, yeah.

I mean, he's, yes, it's all started with him. He was a griller. He loved being outside smoking meat. He loved. Like, my, because, like, to give me an example, when my mom got in, I was like, I'm going to fry one turkey and I'm going to smoke the other. And she's like, no. don't smoke one.

I'm like, why not? She's like, your dad kind of killed that for me. Because he would smoke everything. Oh, funny. Like, my dad would smoke boiled eggs. He would smoke salmon. He would smoke mac and cheese.

He would smoke regular cheese. She's like, I'm tired of the smoke. She's like, I would burp smoke. And I would tell your dad, like, stop smoking meat. Just do it in the oven. Like, or just doing the skillet. But now he just loved it. And that's totally where I get it from.

I just love being outside and the smell of smoke and cooking. and trying to cook whatever in a smoker. Yeah. All that. I love it. So even though your mom didn't necessarily want it, it probably gave her some good memories. She did.

And then everyone was just like, actually, my bad, this was really good. It's actually really, really good. Oh, good. So, yeah, so there are little moments where we missed, you know, we kind of all just like, man, which dad was here and he would have loved this. But I think overall everyone's doing a little better. That's good. My brother is doing awesome.

Okay, that was my next question. How's he doing? Great. Like, he actually, I have this huge, like, hill that kind of runs in my neighborhood and you can walk it up. Like, I love exercising and walking up this hill because it's... Three words I never thought I'd hear you say, but go on. I love exercising. Well, I, it's, because it doesn't feel like it's so beautiful out there, and it's a hill that kind of, like, goes so high.

I feel like going on nature walks. Yeah, like, I don't like, weights, whoa, curls. I don't think I don't think I ever would have pinned you for saying, I have. I love exercising. Not in a bad way. It's just like not your personality. I hate that crap. I'll play football.

I'll play game of baseball. I'll play soccer. Like I'll do stuff. I'll walk. I'll go whatever. But like I don't like just going exercising. Okay. So we like nature.

You like nature. So anyway, so, you know, I was like after Thanksgiving lunch, I was like, do you guys want to go for a walk and just try to walk up the hill? And they were like, yeah. And I was like, hey, look at my brother. I'm like, can you do it? And he's just like, yeah, dude, I can do it. Let's go.

And he did it. And it was awesome. I was like, I could not believe that he's just able to walk up a steep hill. And he says that sometimes like his leg will kind of like, because he still doesn't really feel, which is really like bizarre that he's learned how to walk and just use his body again. But like he'll pinch his thigh and be like, I don't feel that. Like some of the nerves are gone? All of them or just some of them? Some of them.

Okay. Some of them. So he says like when he's walking, he doesn't really. feel the ground but he knows it's there. That's where he kind of has to be careful like when he doesn't see something. And it's like, oh, that was a rock. Like, can you fall?

I would imagine that would be correlated than his brain is remembering how to walk, which is a great sign anyway. Like, that's a great sign considering what he went through. But his brain is only recalling what it has done before, which is my new stuff will be hard

because it's not recalling things that haven't happened yet. It's only recalling what it's used to. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Would be my guess? I don't know. It's so complicated, Morgan.

Like, we've just learned from, like, my dad and, and my brother that the brain, like, we don't really even know how it all works. Like, we all know, like, oh, left side. Left side of the brain is this. Front side of the brain is that, whatever. But, but, like, it's like he had a bleed in one part of the brain. And he was telling me now that what his doctors are telling him is that whatever that bleed, wherever that bleed was, it kind of killed that little section of the brain and it turned it into just tissue. And that tissue slowly just goes away.

So basically he has like a little hole in his brain where that was. So does that mean that he can never feel again or he can never learn to do certain things? They're like, they don't know because they think that they can train other parts of the brain to do certain things that that part could have. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like things like that. And it's very complicated. So with him, the motor skills are like, you know, 95% except he just doesn't feel.

But he's worked around that. He's like, dude, he's like, I really don't even feel. Like, I got it. Yeah. I got it. And then he gets kind of sensory overload a little bit. I do wonder, because on my podcast I had talked to a neuroscientist at one point. And it was very fascinating.

Like she had made the comment that we. only know, like really know and understand about 20% of the brain. So that's crazy because, right? Because there's 80% of the brain that we don't have the research, the study, anything to really understand. Yep. But there is that a better way of saying it. I believe there's like brain physical therapy. There is. That's what he's doing. Is that what he's doing? Is that what he's doing? Okay. Or neurofeedback therapy or whatever. Yeah. So I would bet that with that they can start to train those different parts of the brain to do what, that one lost. I just don't know how it works.

What's cool is not only that. What he's learning now is that like not only can he start working on what he lost, he could also work on old trauma. Yeah. And learning kind of how, what that old trauma did to his brain, learn how to rewire it. Yeah.

Which is like, rewiring the brain is crazy. I'm like, dude, I didn't have a stroke and give me that. Like, I want to go to these things with you. You know, what's cool is like he's

he's even learning more about the brain all because he had a stroke which he wouldn't pre-stroke wouldn't give a crap about how the brain works post-stroke he wants to know everything about it so it's it's kind of like I don't know it's very

it's hard for my family but once we're now that we're past it you know everything it's cool to see him change like he eats way better now like he never it's like he was telling me He's like, dude, I used to drink a monster energy drink, eat Skittles every day at lunch and a cheeseburger, like at lunch. And then I would, like, for dinner, I'd have a Coke and like go get like pizza or something.

I'd be like, bro. Like that is, he's like now he didn't even think about that. Like he cannot even think that way because the doctor's like, you got to change all that. Can drink. Got to eat way better. And you've got to have physical exercise. And so the way it's helped him as a person is just really, really cool to see. Well, and that's one of those life moments, right?

That's a wake-up call for somebody. And I imagine that would be the case for your brother in this particular scenario, especially. So he's probably having that like, okay, how do I go from this and do better? Sure. You know, hopefully it doesn't happen again. And how can I prevent that? Which I don't know. I don't know anything about strokes and stuff.

Is that something that is preventable if he does? take the necessary steps. It's almost like he has to do that because once you have a stroke, it's easier to have more strokes. Got it. But taking care of yourself in a better way can help stop more from happening. Correct. Got it.

Yeah, you've got to work extra, extra hard now for them not to happen again. Because it's almost like you've opened the gate. Like you've opened the gate to your brain bleeding now. Or something, like a vessel bursting. But like good on him for taking. that and doing it, right? Yeah. Because he could not.

He genuinely could say, I'm fine. I'm going to keep living my life the way I want to live it. I think a lot of people do that. And what's cool is that he's single and alone. And that would even make it harder, I would think. Yeah. No, like, support every single day. I'm like sure if you had a wife, if he had a wife, she'd be there with him and be like, hey,

you know, you got to eat this. Don't do that. Do that. But he's by himself. So he has to do it himself, which is like really cool. Yeah, and he's doing it. Because I don't know if I could do that by myself. Yeah.

I don't know. I mean, based on all of your family and the ones that I have met, you guys are special. So I feel like you. Oh, thank you, Morgan. Yeah. Okay, well, thanks for all the updates. Yeah. I did have a one that I wasn't putting in listener Q&A, but somebody did ask, how are you liking the no hair?

Do you like it, not like it? What's the vibe? I love it. Yeah. I love it. Right now you have some scruff happen. Well, and it's almost like, like, I like having a little bit of hair. it's weird going really bald

But well there a second there you were going straight bald Straight bald every day But I don't like shaving so like obviously I don't like shaving my face I don't I never actually shave my face to the skin Ever I just have an electric razor that Kind of just trims it to where there's always a little bit There always have scruff always so that's kind of how I'm looking at my head

Like I never really want to go all the way to the skin Because to me that's like oh man you're old man bald Like you've taken it all the way down Yeah but some people like They go straight. They just go straight bald. There's no hair. I know.

It could be seen both ways because like I see my dad and he's always had a little bit of scruff. That's what I'm saying. He never went full. But he has lighter hair though. So like. Well, now it's white. Right. So if you have white hair, you can have, you can let it go a little bit and it doesn't really show your bald spots.

Yeah. Me, I still have dark hair. So like I still show my bald spot. Yeah. So I've got to keep it pretty freshly shaved, which is hard. It's just like, it's just a pain in the butt. Yeah. It's not hard.

It doesn't take a long. time, but it's a pain in the butt to do it. Well, it's something new you have to do that was not previously part of your routine. Correct. Correct. But when my brother was in town, I shaved his head and he was like, he loved it. Well, he didn't want it. Then after the fact...

Wait, he didn't want his shaved head and you shaved it? Yeah, well, finally the last day he was here, he's like, just shave it. Like, you guys won't shut up about it. Just shave it. Really? You guys were giving him so much crap. Well, yeah, because his head's like mine. And he's just in denial.

And like... So because you've seen the light, you were trying to get him to see the light? doesn't look good. Like, it doesn't look good. And like, if you want to look better, shave it. Because that's been his thing too. He's like, I want to start looking better. I lost a lot of weight. I'm going to start dressing better. And like, then let's do it. Shave the head. And finally he did it and he likes it. He does. Yeah. So he hasn't regretted this decision. He hasn't done it himself yet. So we'll see. TBD to be determined. Yeah. We'll see if he. When you say TBD, you don't have to say what it is. To be determined.

People know what that means. Okay. DVD. It's like saying the Facebook. No, it's not. Yes, it is. No, it's not. I never say the Facebook. You don't say a short inversion and then say the phrase that you were... Okay. Oh, Eddie. B.R.B. Be right back. Oh, my gosh. Okay. Anyways, speaking of hair, though, I, everybody's been noticing. I've taken away the banks. Didn't notice.

You didn't. It's okay. No, I don't, I'm sorry. I just don't notice hair. Yeah, we've learned that from you talking about your wife. We have learned that. I just don't. I've had a like scuba did. When did that happen? Just in the last week, I had done it. I had told my hairdresser after CMAs. I wanted them for CMAs for a cool style.

Yeah. But then I was like, I'm growing them out. I'm just so tired of styling them. But there are a lot of work to your point. Yep. It was something that had to do every single day and multiple times a day. What does it take? Like, what do you have to do?

Do you have to blow dry? You use a little round brush and you have to blow dry them every time they basically, like, if you go work out or you go outside or you, you, You go and do something, any type of activity, you'd have to come back and go fix them because they wouldn't stay that way or they'd move. So to keep them styled, you always had to keep them like blow dried, basically. But if you just let your hair be whatever it wanted to do with the bang cut, what does it look like? Everything would be curly. Okay. It would be pure chaos.

Okay. Like there'd be random waves, some really ringlet curls, just lots of curls everywhere. Okay. I like it. I like my natural hair a lot. It's just not, I can't predict how it's going to go. You're naturally curly? Yeah, very curly. My dad had like an afro. That's cool. So I got all my natural curl from him. I can't remember if my mom had naturally straight or curly hair. I think it comes from my dad. But yeah, so they're, they're slowly going away for now. I don't know how to feel. Are you ever going to go? Are you ever going to go curly? What do you mean? It is curly?

No, no, no, like just, I have. You've seen me with like really my natural curly hair. Have I? I've come in and you guys are like, whoa. I bet we did. Because it's volume. Like there's some, because you, literally all I do is spray sea salt in my hair with my natural curls. And they just, it's like, oh gosh, Kimberly from Little Big Town. Oh, really?

Hers are so perfectly styled though. I really need her hair routine for like my curls. Freak and awesome. Yeah, like hers looks beautiful. Always styled great. I can't get mine to do that. So if I can learn her hairstyle, then I could start doing it. That'd be cool.

But I do have that volume. and not like super curly hair. Morgan, that could be your look. Yeah. It's so much to keep up with it, Eddie. Like, to your point, like, just like keeping up with, not keeping up with hair. You have to keep up with it in a different version. So, but yeah, they're gone for now.

They may come back. Okay. I don't know. I don't like it. It's an adjustment. Like, see myself, I keep looking in my ear. I'm like, why do I look so bad? And I'm like, oh, it's because the bangs aren't there.

And it's not weird. You don't look bad. It's just different. Yeah, you're so used to look into the mirror and be like, okay, that looks like me. Mm-hmm. And then when you have that change, you're like, well, that's not me. Yeah.

And it takes a long time to get used to. Especially, like, seeing when you'll post videos from the studio and stuff, I'm like, what did I do that day? I look horrible. Yeah. And it's because I'm so not used to it. Did you feel that way? Our angle's weird, though.

In the studio, like, you and I have this, we share the same camera. Yeah. Our angle is weird. It's up. It's up shooting down. And everyone else is almost eye level, maybe, like, above their head at most. And like so everyone like when I edit I'm like man everyone looks good and like Then there's us

And Morgan look like we're miniature We do We look small Maybe we can see about getting that Brought down a little bit So we can be on everybody else's level It's just maybe the same level man I think the reason inside baseball

But I'm sure people love to hear about this They do But they didn't want that camera Because it's almost above the stage Yeah They didn't want that camera so low That an artist comes in and hits their head on it It is tucked away to the left, but I guess they just, anything around the stage, they didn't want it to.

Just don't feel like any of the artists are, even when we had the Air Force Academy band, nobody was over there. No, not really. I think that was just their thought. Yeah. So maybe now that that's gone, I'm going to say, hey, let's bring that down a little. So we can look like everyone else. Yeah, so we can be on the same glam level. Oh, man.

Okay, well, Eddie, thank you for joining me. Yeah, Morgan, thanks for having me. We're wrapping this part up. But thanks for coming on, even though I come up to you and say, hey, Eddie. Hey, Eddie. I'm going to have to start changing up my, like, tone. What are you doing this week? Hey, Eddie, how's it going?

I don't think I can change my phone. No, there's no other way of doing it. Just keep doing what you're doing. I feel weird now. I like it. Now I know. I like it. And it gives us a heads up.

Like, here we go. I knew it was my week. And there's an internal clock, too, that kind of tells us, like, I feel like my week's coming. Like, at some point. Your therapy session with Morgan's coming up. What is it? Every five?
