Behind the scenes with a member of the show. What's up, everybody? We are here. It's time for another weekend. And this weekend, Eddie is joining me. What's up, everyone? Eddie over there about to make a joke. No, I'm not making the Saturday joke.

I'm not going to do it. But today is Saturday. There's been a lot of tension and drama around here lately. really has. I think people are just getting, I don't know, maybe everyone has low tea. Maybe that's what it is. Okay, you just threw that in there. I was never going to throw that in there. Well, I mean, I never thought low tea was this big of an issue. Are you angry? I'm not angry, but I'm definitely not as happy as I normally am. Like you, when we first met, way back, gosh, it's been like almost in Wichita. 10 years now in Wichita. When you were.

When you were an actress? You were a photographer slash actress? I was a digital director and I was acting in one theater play. When I met you, you were taking pictures at a raging idiot's show. I was, which I was doing basically what I do for this show. But it was funny because, and let me kind of like, I'll set, I'll set the scene before you even walked in. Like, we'd never have anyone take pictures of our sound checks, like, ever. A sound check for us for many years, for Bobby and I.

was go to the venue at like 3 o'clock, right? And then everyone gets their drums. Doon, check the drone. Check one. Check one. But for me and Bobby, it was like, let's practice because we don't ever practice. And so we start practicing and I noticed you. And I think Bobby noticed you.

Like, who is this girl just taking pictures of us? Right? And then we just started kind of messing with you a little bit like because you were just on stage or in front of the stage and we try to make you laugh or whatever. But that's kind of, that's how we first met you. Yeah. Yeah. Like it was a strange girl. She's supposed to be here?

Because no one ever took pictures. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I remember making the joke, too. Like, who let her in? And I was there because I thought it was good content. And it was. Yeah. And that's how we met.

And then Eddie and I backstage talked. And then we ended up going to eat at Old Mill Tasty Shop for a sandwich. That was the sandwich place. Yeah. So good. Still there. And it was good. That was our first hanging out.

And then I was going to go out with you guys. And you guys like got to the bar as it was closing. Yeah. I mean, that's how it went. It was always like we'd play the show. The show would end like, what, 10.30 or something, 11. And then we would stay and meet every buddy that went to the show. Like anyone that stayed behind to meet us, we would stay and meet and talk and take pictures with everyone.

So by the time we would load the truck, get back to the hotel, change, shower, whatever. Me and some of the guys, it was usually me, Grady the drummer, Ahmad. Yep. I definitely remember you and Amad because I'd met him also. Yeah. And I think Grady was there, but I don't think I'd met him at that point. Usually it was just me, Grady, Amad, and Brandon Ray, where usually the four of us would be like, you want to go get a beer somewhere? Let's go.

And I remember we went to this place. Yeah, you went to pub house. You guys were walking out. We were walking in. I was like, where are you going? Like, we just got here. You're like, it's about to close. It's time to go to bed.

Yeah. Not time to come in. We were just starting. Yeah, you guys were. And it was so wild because it. meeting you guys there was the start of a whole bunch of things. Oh, yeah. That wasn't very many months later when I moved to Nashville and all of that.

I didn't even know you were really going to move to Nashville until you moved. Then you moved to Nashville. And yeah, because like I think I just saw you in the office, right? Like already? Like you had already gotten hired. I'm like, what are you doing here? I think you saw me when I had been visiting for the interview and it happened very quickly. I saw the job opening.

I basically came here one week. did a bunch of interviews, met everybody, and they were like, well, I think we're going to offer you the job. And within a month, I was moving down here. It all happened very fast when it happened. So that tracks. Was that hard for you to leave Wichita? Oh, yeah. There was so many tears. Or Kansas, really, because you had gone to Manhattan. Yeah. And I hadn't lived outside of the state of Kansas. That was the first time, right? And I was moving a 13-hour drive away at the time, driving with the U-Haul. And it was rough.

That first few years were pretty rough. Did you cry when you left? Yeah. Oh, yeah. My mom still cries when I leave. When you leave the house? Every time? Yeah.

It's still really hard for her. Aw, like because you guys are so close. Yeah, and I think it's just hard that my whole family is there. And then I'm the only one that's just still over here. Oh, yeah. I guess all your is. Yeah, everyone's there. My mom held on to hope for a long time.

I think that I would just come here, work a couple of, years, I'd miss home and I'd go back. Not the case. It did not happen. It did not happen. Yeah. My dad's used to it now. He doesn't, he got teary-eyed the first few times and now he's just, he loves coming to visit. So I think he sees it as we get to go visit our daughter in Nashville. And my mom is like, I want her around all the time. So come back. So yeah, she still gets teary-eyed. And it makes me want to cry. But then I just like, I have to be like, no, this is my life now.

Yeah. Go from it. When I bought my house was her big. realization of oh you're not coming back yeah but because before it's just an apartment she can leave her apartment she can you know go anywhere else yeah and then i bought the house and she was like oh she's planning roots there this is not a she's coming back anytime soon how did you end up on the show though because like you say that the move from wichita to national was so quick like everything happened so quickly but i remember you getting on the show happened really quickly too because And I can't even think of how you got on the show. Well, it was like, I was 10 months into my job in Nashville.

So even quick from me moving to Wichita in Nashville, it happened. And I had been talking with Rod, who you know, he's one of our bigger bosses. And Jen, one of our other bigger bosses. And just saying that I would love to work on a show one day. I don't know what that looks like or what that, if there's any possibility of it. Weren't you already like on a show in Wichita? Weren't you on channel? I had done some on air stuff.

But not working with a syndicated show or a morning show of any capacity. But were you on air over there? I did some on air, yeah. And I did some on air for Nashville, too. From Wichita. No, for when I was in Nashville in those 10 months. Oh, I didn't know that. I did some weekend shows.

Really? Yeah, I was just dabbling. It was a lot of dabbling. I never had my own, like, full shifts. It wasn't until, I think at one point on Channel in Wichita, I had some weekend shifts that I did on my own. And I did some stuff with, if you remember, tight pants. Of course. Typhans. How can I forget DJ Typhans?

We saw him, which was crazy. Do you keep in touch with him? So we saw him in Austin when we were there for IHart Fest. Shut up! What was he doing there? So he works for the St. Louis soccer team. He's doing social media, digital marketing, and they were in town the same weekend we were. And he had texted lunch and lunch was like tight pants was here. And I was like, what? And so we ended up meeting in the hotel lobby. You need to give me. I would have loved to have seen him. You had left at this point. You guys were gone. Oh, we had left. Okay, okay, Saturday

So, yeah, it was after the festival. We met up with him. And he was like, you know what's crazy? He was like, I'm like your, he's like, I love it because it's my claim to fame. You were on my show before you were on this show. Hey, Thai pants was kind of a big deal, man. He was. He still is in Wichita.

And I would go on and do like pop culture things. I'd talk about movies. And all these, we'd do movie reviews. There was a period in time where we thought about doing a podcast together, like, way back then. But like, podcasting then was different than what it looks like now. So it was wild. And they ended up leaving and they moved to St. Louis and stuff. So things changed.

But that was a throwback for me. It was like, oh, I had like a whole life that happened for a couple months there. It's a huge throwback. I hadn't thought about tight pants in a while. Right. And he like brought it all back. My funny tight pants story is we took him out one night. And because I think it was me and lunchbox.

We're out there for like some event or whatever. And tight pants was our chaperone. Yeah. He was the dude that was assigned to us by the station. And Thai pants is way younger than us. And we finished the event. We're like, Tai Pants, we're going out. Like, take us.

And he took us to all these spots. He got so drunk. We all got drunk. Maybe he didn't get too drunk. I don't really remember, but we were pretty drunk. And I remember waking up because we were like, dude, don't drive home. Just stay with us at the hotel. And he slept either in my room or lunchbox's room or maybe we all slept in the same room.

I don't remember. It's a little foggy. But I remember specifically waking up and being like, like tie pants tie pants tie pants and I like looked at the couch

he was sleeping on tie pants and yelled in the bathroom tie pants like he had left like somewhere in the middle night he's like I'm getting out of here

he got a little bit over and he's like I'm getting out of this situation and I remember telling him the next day I'm like dude you freaking like one night standing me like what the crap

like it gave you a place to stay in the middle of night you just leave didn't he have a good explanation No, you know, he's a man of few words. He was probably just like, I don't know. I had to get out of there. He's like, I had to get home.

That's so funny. Do you ever think about how much things are different now compared to that? Yeah. The story you just told. And even then when I met you guys and you were playing at the Orphium in Wichita, and that was a show that you guys put on. And that was a different time to like fast forward all those years to right now. Yeah, we're all just older.

And like, yeah. Like, that's never going to happen. again. Never. Like, and even if we want it to, say like we want to all like go out. Like, because we go to Vegas every year. We go to Austin every year as a group. Like you, me, lunchbox, Amy, everyone, right?

We have our chances to go and let's go. Let's like, let's go out on the town and like party it up. We have our chances every year. Do we ever do it? No, everybody's too tired. Dude, it's 1130. And I'm like, oh, all right. I'm going to go to bed.

Hey, you know what, but though, to our credit, when we were in Austin, you mean Scuba all did go and grab drinks at the speakeasy. But it's at the hotel. It was easy. It was. It was literally two steps away from our hotel room. But we could have easily been like, no, we're going to go to bed. I'm tired. And we did it.

We were going to, though, and Scoba was like, I have this reservation. We might as well use it. And we did. And we were still, we were down there for like two hours. I know, that was fun. And we had so much fun. One drink for two hours. Yeah.

Like. That one drink was strong, though. If you would have given me one for every hour and then maybe a third of I would not have walked out of there. It's funny though, and I think people would think this is funny. But like, we hang out with each other all day, like five days a week, every day. But yet you put us at a bar at 11 o'clock at night and it's just the three of us, Yumi and Scuba.

And we talked about all kinds of things. And you would think. The topics of that were wild. You would think we would have nothing to talk about anymore. Like we've said it all. But we don't. We, like, have a good time with each other. And same with any of us.

Like, you know, like, that's also because you would think, because we hang out all the time and we talk for a living that we get it all out. But it's structured talking. That's true. We're talking about very specific things. Yeah, topics. Whereas, like, humans and natural life just have a lot to say about everything. Yeah. So we had a lot of other topics that maybe wouldn't have made the show or whatever that are just stupid.

Yeah, they're not entertaining, but like, yeah. They're important to us. Sure. And so we were talking about those things. And it was fun. I love when we do that stuff. I do too. But I get it.

I mean, when we're in real life, especially for most of you guys who have kids, like getting away to go and do something. Yeah. That's hard. Like I have nothing to do. Like I don't have kids to put to bed. Like I don't have to be up at 6.30 in the morning because they're going to wake me up on a Saturday morning to like make them, you know, breakfast.

Like, wow. Yeah. We can hang out. So you have the time to go and do stuff. But we won't go hard. No. We won't do it like back in the day. I was going to say, I don't know that I've ever in the time that I've at least been on the show.

I think the only time I've potentially seen anybody go a little bit hard was maybe Mike D's wedding. Yeah. Was where I saw a little bit of that energy come out. Yeah, man. He had a bottomless margaritas. He did. That snuck up on me. You and Ray.

Ray, Ray. Ray was the one like hitting on Mike. mother-in-law. Yeah. And then I think he was also hidden on Mike's, okay, Mike's wife's grandma? Yeah, something. He was with all the older ladies in the room. I think it was Mike's wife's grandma.

And he kept saying like, come on, girl, let's go to my hotel room, girl. While his wife was there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the grandma was like, oh, stop. Like, what are you talking about? He was dancing with her, too. He was. There was a lot of dancing on the dance floor at that moment in time with Ray.

and any woman who would dance with them. Were we all there? Yeah, I think we were all there. Everyone was there, huh? I don't know that Scuba or Abby were part of the show yet. Maybe not.

I feel like that was when we had different people. I remember, man. I remember the margarita machine. I remember the dancing on the dance floor. You know, like, I remember he played, like the DJ played Selena. Like, biddy, bim-bun-bomb.

That wedding was awesome. Okay. So do I get to see this side of you come out for my wedding? Probably not. Why? It's an open bar. I don't know. And there's going to be margaritas.

Are they going to be margaritas? At said open bar. Man, you weren't there for lunchbox this wedding. No. Dude, lunchbox's wedding was crazy. Was it wild? I mean, I've met a lot of his friends now so I can see how. Dude, that one was like Ray and I almost got kicked out of the airport on the way home because

Because our flights were Sunday morning. The wedding was Saturday night. So we didn't sleep. We went straight from party to airport. That's a smart move, though, because then you're not missing your flight. Yeah, but we were still so drunk. And remember we were wrestling in the airport? No.

Yeah, me and Ray were wrestling in the airport. So your guys' after party was at the airport. And a security guard came up and was like, you guys got to stop or you're not flying home. Like, okay, yes, sir. Why were you guys wrestling? I don't know. I have no. I have no idea.

Like, no idea why we're wrestling. And my wife was so embarrassed. Like, stop it. Stop it. And then Bay was so embarrassed. Like, stop it. Both of you all, just stop it. Because it's all like, that's why I ask.

Because women don't, I get zoomies when I'm drunk. What are zoomies? Where I just have, like, weird energy and I'm just, like, bouncing off the walls. Okay. If I'm in, like, a really fun, drunk energy. But I've never had the desire to wrestle anybody when I'm drunk. And I'm not a wrestler. Like, I don't.

I don't. I don't do that. The fact that we were wrestling, it was bizarre. I mean, Morgan, we drank so much. I remember vodka sodas, like nobody's business, and then they would do shots. Because I was like, hey, hey, hey, we're all going to do a shot. Okay. Hey, hey, hey, hey, look, it's our, what's his name?

No teeth Keith's here. We're taking a shot. All right, shot with no teeth keys. Hey, my dad wants to do a shot. Okay, nice shot. It was like that all night. I don't even think you can do that at weddings anymore, unless you have, like, insane liability insurance.

Yeah. I don't, because most weddings don't allow shots. I've learned this. Oh, we were doing them. We were drinking normal drinks and shots in between every normal drink. It was crazy. And I remember too, I remember two, I got a charge from my Uber on the way to the airport that it was like a cleaning charge.

I was like, this is stupid. Like, why wouldn't? And this is like Sunday, the next Sunday night, I'm looking at my phone, you know. I'm already like bad. hangover next day whatever like putting pieces together why don't I get charged like 50 bucks for a cleaning fee that's stupid then I read it

and it's got a note it says ketchup all over the back seat I'm like there was no ketchup like this is so stupid my wife looked at my suit you know and all in the pants was ketchup where did you even get ketchup from apparently we got water burger on the way to the airport

and I'd sat on ketchup packets and they were all over my pants long. Okay, maybe I did. That poor Uber driver hated you. Oh, for sure. He hated me. Yes. The fact you were only charged $50 was actually lucky. I think now you get

$300 charge for like a cleanup fee. Really? Oh, yeah. Dang. Oh, don't ever throw up in an Uber. I have never... I've never done that. You thrown it up? My friend has. And I was with her. And I, so it happened to her before. And then it happened to her when she was with me, but she really needed to go when we were on highway.

And I took her jacket. I was like, you're vomiting in the jacket because I promised you you'll thank me tomorrow so i just took her nice jacket it was a fur jacket and she just vomits in it and i'm like i know you hate me right now but you're going to thank me later but you'll thank me in the morning and she did and she got her jacket dragling and everything was fine but it was about to be really bad they'll turn to like 300 every bit at 300 that is crazy yeah and i'm sure they have a flat fee it's not like oh it was just catch up we can do 50 like i think i think at that point the flat fee was 50 bucks yeah but and they i mean detail

Delling a car now costs that much money, so it makes sense. Man, I remember when we were in Vegas, and this isn't a me drunk story, but me and lunchbox we're going to go play golf. And so we woke up like at 7 in the morning. The golf course was like, you know, 30 minutes away. So we're going to get a cab. And we're out there in like the hotel, you know, the cab line, you know, waiting for a cab. And this cab pulls up.

And there's the, the cab guy gets out, runs around and opens the back door. and as soon as he opens it, this guy just falls out and goes, blah. Like, it was like a movie. It was like a movie where the guy just opened the door and he just fell out and threw up. And we're like, dang, dude, like we're going to play golf right now. And these guys are just like coming back. Yeah. Vegas is another world.

Vegas is an entirely different world. I know how to do it now. It's something that you have to learn how to do Vegas. Because if you go blind, if you're going to. going like you've never done it before, like it's going to end bad every single time. There were times where like every time I went to Vegas, I saw the sunrise. Like every day. Oh, I got Vegas stories for you.

Go ahead. Are you ready? Okay. We're going to take a break. This is all about drinking drunk in Vegas. I don't mean to do. I just kind of let Eddie and I go wherever. Yeah, yeah.

So we'll be right back. We're going to take a break and I'll tell some Vegas stories. Happy Pride Month, Toronto.

In the moment, it felt like it was going on forever. I didn't think I was going to live. I was terrified. There was no anything inside those eyes. They turned black. It scared the hell out of me. That was your first murder case?

Yes, sir. Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career? Yes, sir. Rape a murder for a young-year-old child. Just as bad as it gets. I would think so. People wake up. I'm the one that saw the murder

But I figure since everyone has a podcast, we wanted to as well. And we've had some incredible guests so far. And now our good friend, Nile Horn, is joining the show. How's it going, boys? Hey, Niall. It's the same thing with Slow Hands. Slow Hands is not about anything else, really, is it? You know, or taste so good can't be about food.

You do the same, Nick, with some of the stuff that you've done. You too, Joe. Drop what you're doing and listen to Hey Jonas on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcasts. So my first ever Vegas experience, was with 50 other girls. Wow. Our sorority, senior class, that's where we went. Did you know every one of 50?

Yeah, we all lived in the house together. Dang. So you're, I mean, there's some you're closer to, some you're just, you know, light friends with, if you will, but you know them all. Dude, how do you guys even walk through a casino? And maybe I'm getting it a little bit wrong, but I know we had a lot. Our class had 50 or 55, and I want to say like maybe 30 or what actually ended up going. So maybe it was 30. Okay, but even then, 30

A lot. A lot. Girls are walking through a casino together. Yeah. Like, and does every guy just go like, I'm going to try to hit on one of those? You draw a crowd because there's, and it's 30 young girls. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We're 21 to 22. We're young. And we got everything for free. All the alcohol. Everything's bought, yeah. Limo rides. Because they wanted young girls and clubs. And we were at so many parties, Eddie.

I was so gone for all of 48 hours. There were moments in time where I don't remember life that weekend. Like, I thought I was on Mars. Yeah. That's how much of an experience we were having. But the worst part about that trip was one of my friends lost her ID on the trip. Oh, no. And we're all trying to get into clubs.

It's the whole purpose of why you're going to Vegas. And you need an idea to get in there. And my poor girlfriend, she was like, we have to go find the trip. I can't even get home if I don't have this to get home. And I was like, okay, let's go walk the strip. We started walking the trip at like 1.30 in the morning. By the time we walked the entire strip looking for the stupid ID that we never found, the sun was rising. Yeah, yeah.

Been there. I was still drunk, still walking a strip looking for a stupid ID. And I was so angry that I had just wasted six hours of my life looking for something. We did not find. You never found it? No, we never found her. Her mom had to overnight. an ID for her to get home.

Thankfully, we still had one more day there. But then, like, we kind of had to, like, maneuver her into places. She was of age, but, like, she didn't have her ID. So you snuck her in places? Yeah. Just so she can partake. Yeah, because otherwise, she's sitting in the hotel room by yourself. And, like, it was not an enjoyable experience for her either.

And I think about that trip a lot. Every time we, like, go back to Vegas for I heart or something, I'm just like, this is a wildly different experience than I had that time. Oh, yeah. My best, my best trip to Vegas ever was fantasy football, Bobby, me, lunchbox, Ray, Ahmad, and like, I don't know, five other friends of ours. Okay. It was a fantasy draft, right? So, like, we're all going to Vegas.

I'd never gone with this group before. And Bobby, who's successful then already in Austin? And so, like, the room he got was, like, awesome. Are you guys all staying together in the same room? I think most of us were and then like, you know, four other guys would have two other smaller rooms. Okay. But so, I mean, it was, we did so many things. Like, one thing was when Ray, like, we were all going to do dinner one night.

And we had been drinking by the pool like all day. And Bobby's like, you know, Bobby doesn't drink, right? So he's like, all right, everybody meet by the elevators of seven. We're doing dinner at this. I think it's called like the Brab Hofbra house or something. It's like a German baver. Bavarian beer garden. That could have gone a lot of different ways based on that name.

So I was really curious. It's just like where all the girls dressed like German, you know, and like the guys are all dressed like lumberjacks or whatever. And they serve beer and they serve meats. Okay. Right. So he's like, everybody meet at the elevator at seven. And so we all meet in the elevator. And Ray is like, he can't stand.

Ray is like just falling over. he's leaning on the ashtray, you know, like on the garbage can. And Bobby's like, what's with him? Like, what's his problem? Well, you see, Ray, we've been drinking all day at the pool and like Ray's gone. And he's like, you're not coming with us. You got to go to the room. Like, so he was like, yes, sir, yes, sir.

And Ray was like, he was in trouble with it. Yes, sir. And he heads back to the room. And like, it's almost like we went and had our night. And Ray had his like night in Vegas at the host. tell by himself. He met three girls. He did not go back to the room. He met three girls and I hope I'm allowed to say this. He met three girls and he hung out with him in their room and they dressed him. And the only reason we know is because he was sending his pictures with these girls

that like dressed him and were putting makeup on him. And he was just drunk sitting on the bed like, look, I'm hanging out with these girls. I'm like, what are you doing? What was he a polypocket? What does that mean? Like a Barbie? Yeah. Yeah. Why of all activities? And the next day he was like, dude, is the best, dude. Just hung out with three hot chicks, man.

But you didn't do anything. Like, all you did was get makeup on you. They played, they put their dresses on you. Like, what do you? Like, what did you do? He's like, it was fun, though, dude. What did you guys do? Hang out with just you guys drink beer at a meat house.

Like, we're like, yeah, I guess. I mean, all right. You know what? Everybody has their own unique Las Vegas experiences. Yes, yes, we all did. And then we paid a, uh, a, uh, street performer to come to our hotel room. I definitely thought you were going a different way again with that name.

Have you heard this story? So Jesus, and he's still there. Every time we go to Vegas and we still see Jesus, he plays an accordion on one of the bridges. And so we had this great idea to give him, I think we all collected maybe like $300 for him to do a private concert

for us in our hotel room. Why? I don't know, Morgan. We've been drinking all day. The things that you guys come up with are wild. And the guy was like, didn't speak a lick of English. She's like, yes, yes. $300. He packed his accordion and went to our room.

And the whole time we're walking with him, like, somebody's holding his accordion, like, I'm holding, you know, his suitcase, whatever. And we're walking down back to our hotel. And we're thinking, like, what are we doing? Like, why don't we just pay this guy $300? That is funny. And then we get to the room and we text the whole group like, hey, guys, we have entertainment. Entertainment.

That is not what of a lot of. bunch of guys are going to a room thinking it's happening. We have entertainment, meet us in the room in 30 minutes. And so everyone shows up, even Bobby. He's like, what is happening here? And like, we got the Jesus, the accordion player. Like, guys, welcome Jesus. And he starts playing the accordion.

He's literally, he doesn't even know how to play. He just goes, eh, ha, eh, ha, ha, eh, that's all he does. We're like, Jesus, play something. we know he's like I know nothing uh uh uh uh you really just paid him $300 just to show up but you know what was really cool when he was up there

he was like wow I've never been in one of these hotels before like the view up here is amazing and he's he'd been living in Vegas his whole life like he'd been living in Vegas for so long gone that's where he goes to work every day on that street on that bridge or whatever and he was like staring out the window and he was like

look look I live over there like my house is right over there. And he was loving every bit of it. So did he end up just hanging out with you guys more than he ended up playing it? Yeah, we were like, put the accord in the way, dude. I think we're good on that. We heard the three songs. The one song, the one note that you play over and over, we heard it.

Put it down. Just hang out. That's wild. We gave him a couple beers. He hung up, he hung out with us up there. It was great. What's the most money you've ever made him big? $800.

Okay, that's pretty solid. 800 bucks on one rule. And this, again, this is the same trip. And our buddy Steve had like, our buddy Steve had bought a case of Miller Lights and brought it into the casino. And he booked, he took it to the, to the craps table. And instead of like drinking like casino drinks, he was just drinking out of his like Miller Lite box. Oh my gosh. Yeah. And he would just get a can and like if somebody walks by here, dude, have a beer.

He's, he'd been sitting there for like an hour. And then he, uh, I don't know. I was just kind of watching him for like 10 minutes. And I was like, you know what? How are you feeling? Is he feeling good? He's like, yeah, I'm feeling good. I'm like, all right, I'm going to do $100 on that you're going to roll a 5-5.

A hard 10. Yeah. $100. The odds are not high. No, it pays 8 to 1. Yep. So like I threw the $100 out there. I'm like, come on, Steve.

Just don't roll a full. Don't roll a seven. Was this on the craps table? The craps table. Okay. Don't roll a seven and don't roll a 6-4. Anything else is great. just don't roll a seven and don't roll a six four.

He rolled. He rolled. I think it was like four rolls and you hit the hard 10. And we're like, we started yelling. I think it's, yeah, I want 800 bucks.

Did you win it though and leave or did you just win it? No, you lost it. Even worse. I want it and I said, and then lunchbox rolls up like, you know, like clock work.

Wow, you was like, dude, let's go to the bar. I'll buy everyone a shot. And bought everyone a shot. It was gone. Around in Vegas is like easily $300.

Like, So that went. I probably gambled some more. Yeah, that didn't last. It is so much fun. I will say I have never been a huge. Okay, so like growing up on holidays, we would sit in my grandparents' basement.

And all of my uncles, my dad, they would all play poker. They'd play Texas Hold' on, blackjack. And they just play with coins and whatever. And I'd sit on my dad's lap and I'd play with them. And it was really just more messing with my dad's cars

and throwing coins out, whatever. Or he'd tell you what to do. Yeah. Like I was just listening. just wanted to be part of the game. And so that was my relationship with games for most of my life. And then as I got older, like, my dad would be like, you only drop 20 bucks at the casino. You do more like, you're going to lose a lot of money. And so that was a rule that I had. Like, I'd go to casinos and I'd lose $20 pretty fast. I was really fast. Okay, well, see you later,

I guess. Sometimes that's one role. Like one hand. Oh, yeah. Or even being on like the slot machine, you're there for five minutes and then you're out. Yes. And so again, more relationship with it. And then it wasn't really until the cruise where I got introduced to more. Yeah. You know why? Because you guys were winning. Oh my gosh. Yeah.

I was winning at Blackjack. I had to play the Blackjack tournament. And so I learned how to play there. People, the listeners that were so awesome and kept giving me to play craps, they told me the whole game, which nobody had ever taken the time to teach me how to play these games. And so now I'm excited for the next cruise because I'm going to go and try and play some more. I didn't play a lot in the cruise. I played for like, you know, 20 minutes or something. but I didn't have the nights you guys had.

Yeah. And next time you will, like, we would get done with all of our stuff we'd have to go do. And lunchbox would be like, we're going to go to the casino. I was like, fine, I guess I'm coming. Because I wanted to hang out. And that was where everybody was. So then I just was like, okay, what's the saying, like, give in or get out? What?

There's some saying. Get in or get out. Shut up or go home. No, what? There's like a saying. It's like, you. like give it in or like I don't know get with it when in Rome

sure we'll go with that one get with it I don't know man I'm not gonna lie there are some pathways in my brain that just stops oh same the same and it could be like a saying that you like everyone says or you would know on a regular day today it's just not coming out

nope like something when I would talk to a neuroscientist she said she calls them like mod down pathways that's not one that's moed down currently it's not right now it is it really's because You know, really needs to be intended to, but not right now. So whatever that saying is. No, I'm looking forward to that.

Next year on the vote, it's going to be a lot of fun. I know. I'm just, I love our outings when we have them. It's hard to make them happen in normal, normal everyday life. But man, when we have outings, it is so much fun. You're right. And when Amy, like, we make fun of Amy when she says, you know, like, oh, I'd love a show trip. Honestly, it'd be fun.

Like, it would be fun. It's hard to get us all in the same schedule. It would have to be mandatory, really. Like you'd have to be like, this is a mandatory show road trip. Like, then we would make it happen. But if it's like voluntarily, like we're, it's so hard. Like when we all went to Atlanta on the bus, so much fun. That was awesome.

And we always have so many stories we're experiencing out with each other. I know. I know. And a lot of things are happening and everything's up for grabs. And we realize that we're kind of still a little fun. Like, we're all fun. Count yourself and that. I'm still very fun.

Oh, man. I don't feel fun. Like, I really don't because like the daily grind. of just like disciplining kids and raising kids kind of like and I guess I have it harder because I have four boys you know and like they just kind of are all over the place if I just let them just be them which is fine I can it's just like it's just like ends up just being like all right well I got to pick up that mess and I'm scared they're going to break that and they're probably going to break whatever that like I just end up not having fun but I'm working on it I was going to

say you need to adapt the lunchbox dad lifestyle. Not give a crap. He does not care. No, man. I'm telling, I've seen him in the wild, and his kids just roam. Roam. Yeah. They can be in the parking lot, and he has no freaking clue. Yep. He is very free range.

And I guess, like, you know, he's got something there because, like, if they're hungry, they'll come back to you. They will. You know, they're bored. They'll come back to you. One of them figured out how to walk his way home. So it does... Oh, my gosh. You know, it figures itself out, but I know it's hard. Yeah. So, but But like when I, you take me out of that scenario, like when we were in Key West, dude, how much fun was that?

Oh, so much fun. We had the best day. Yeah. We're riding around on a golf car. We're all hanging out on a beach. There are like, and we've done, we've done like bits on this, but like, you know, where what memories like take you to like a good, give you like a good memory, a good taste in your mouth, right? Like, yeah. I think about that.

There was a trip that my wife and I took to Scottsdale. Think about it all the time. We went to Puerto Rico My wife and I think about it all the time That beach in Puerto Rico Like it lives in my mind rent free Like if I'm having a bad day I go there in my mind and I love it

Our trip to our day in Key West I think about it all the time Like that was so much freaking fun I know This is why I have such a desire to travel I have those moments And I'm much like you All of my moments that I think of are traveling

I'm nowhere where my feet or perfectly like a lot of people could say, okay, well, this is where I'm happiest. And of course, I'm happy at home. I have a safe space.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But when I really think about, like, when I'm truly the most happy is when I'm, like,

out exploring in a new place, whether it's a beach or a mountain or just cool views. Yeah. That's what I think about the most. But I wonder if it's because it's so spaced out. You know, like,

would we, would we enjoy it as much as if it was just every day? Yeah, and I don't know. Because, like, we've toured. We've toured,

right? And where we're in one city, next city, next city, next city. And it's always just like, oh, man, I'm ready to go home. But that's also because you're working and all of that. True. You know? And I wonder if you have a little bit more of a relaxed lifestyle. If the career isn't the main goal, right?

And you travel more, you live a little bit more, work a little bit less. And money and having things isn't as much of a priority. That's the goal, Morgan. You know? That's the goal. I mean, I feel like when you have that type of lifestyle, it's worth it for sure. It's also a big reason why I don't know that I want to have kids because I think it's going to take me my entire life to see a lot of the world. And having kids, as you can attest to, changes that a lot.

To travel, to be able to go and do things, you're talking all of them about it right now. It greatly changes your life. I think Disney was a memory, though. Like, I did have a. I believe that. a good memory at Disney with my family. Well, and I think you'll have really great ones as they continue to get older. Oh, man.

I can't wait. These cool, but for, you know, how many years of their life where it wasn't, it's hard. Like, when I get to take my boys to Vegas, that's going to be awesome. Mm-hmm. Like, that's going to be so much fun. You're all drinking a beer. And we're all gambling at a table together, you know, or they were checking, like, hey, how much did he win?

Like, are you up or you down? Like, I remember that with my dad. I mean, that was so much fun. Do you think you will take them when they all turn 18 to Mexico? To Mexico? Because I feel like that's kind of a ride of passage just to go drink where the legal age is 18. Because I did that when I turned 18. No, I don't think so.

I don't know yet. But that to me was always so weird. Like, you got to understand. I grew up seven miles north of Mexico. And as soon as I turned 16 and I could drive or a friend. friend of ours could drive, like, we would just go to Mexico a good drink. Yeah, so it was much more common for you. And that's crazy. Like, I look at, I have an 18 year old now, you know, like, and I'm like, wow, if he were me, he would have already gone to Mexico like 30 times and gotten drunk,

you know? And I don't know. Like, the fact that we live in Tennessee and it's not that easy for him, kind of makes me thankful for that. Yeah. But also, I think it's a cool experience for them to have. If it's something they want, it's something that they're responsible about. But what are the laws? Because I remember, you know, being at a restaurant with my parents and my parents ordering me a drink when I was, you know, 18. I think a lot has changed since then.

Oh, so now I can't. There may have been. I could be making this up. But I feel like once upon a time there was a law that if you were 18, you. your parents could order a drink with their supervision. You could have a drink. 100% because I lived that. I believe that was a thing.

I don't know for how long and I don't know if it still applies anywhere, but not that I'm aware of. Wish we had Mike with a Google. I know. I could Google it right now. No, it's not worth it. But I think it would be fun for you to go and have that. Because I loved when I was on my senior trip, my parents said I could take one friend. And for my senior trip in high school, they took me and my friend on a cruise.

One of the stops was in Mexico. we went to Senior Frogs and we just had a whole day. Oh, that just sounds dangerous. And my parents were supervising us, right? They weren't letting us go and be by themselves. They were there. But it was such a cool experience and I got to have it with my parents. Yeah.

On the ship and just that whole thing. It was a cool memory that I think about a lot. It's going to be interesting. I was curious if you too. It's just tricky with my situation because like there are a couple of them. that like I hope that they never do drink because I don't know what it's going to do. That's fair. You know what I mean?

Well, I think also every parent would hope that their kids don't ever drink because alcohol is not good for you. I know we've talked about it alive and all this, but alcohol really is not good for you. Right. But there are some people like me, like I've been able to drink alcohol my whole life and not have an issue with it. Like not one issue. Like I have one drink, take two sips and never and put it down and never drink from it again. Or throw it away. No problem.

There are family members that I have that they can't have one sip or it's over. One sip and it's like, all right, get ready for a night because it's about to get crazy. Yeah. You know, so like, it's always such a weird thing. Like, some people can. Some people just can't do it. So I don't know. That's what I worry about my kids.

And I don't know which ones they are. You know, because we definitely have that gene in my family. For sure, we have that gene in my family. So I don't know. I'm kind of like maybe we take it to Mexico to find out. And then we're like, all right, now we know which ones can't do it. Yeah, but I guess once you introduce it, then it's just all bad. Then it's over.

Right, right. I don't know. It's a weird. It's a weird thing. No, that's true. And that's a huge thing. And like I said, the trend of that has changed. And alcohol really isn't bad or isn't good.

We've learned a lot of things about it now than what we did then. I know. Even I don't drink alcohol in the way that I used to. But I don't know. When did that happen for you? With all my health stuff. I stopped drinking completely. Yeah, that's interesting too.

Like, once you get to a certain age or whatever, the health becomes like, like, you know, I remember a doctor being like, hey, you need to like chill a little bit. How often do you drink? Oh, like, I don't know. Have about 12 beers a week, you know, like, yeah, you should bring that down a little bit. Yeah. You know, it's like you don't even think about that stuff. Well, again, because it was very heavily taught to us to do it.

That was like the cool thing to do. Yeah. And it was okay. okay to do it versus cigarettes or tobacco. Yeah, yeah, I was normalized. Yeah, but now that is not the case anymore. So, okay, we need to answer some list of questions. Man, we went all the way around, though.

I know. Like, we went everywhere from like crazy party days to like Vegas baby to like, yeah, I don't really drink as much anymore. Right? But that's the evolution of life, though also. It really is. It's crazy. We had to go all the way around. That's what you and I always do. We go through all

of them. Okay. We're going to take a quick break. Okay. And we'll be back. We're going to answer some questions. Happy Pride Months, Toronto.

That was your first murder case? Yes, sir. Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career? Yes, sir. Rape and murder for a child. She's as bad as it gets. I would think so. People wake up.

I'm the woman. the murder take place by crevette and de pippo. Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse, appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum. I said, I'm not guilty.

to your podcast. All right. Now that we are done talking about all of our craziness of life, hopefully it's a weekend. People are out having fun. Oh, yeah. It's Saturday.

So, all right. Let's get into some listener questions. Aaron in New Hampshire wants to know if you do anything special for your wife in daily life since she has to live with five dudes. Yeah. I think he's just now realizing he should. No, no, no.

She definitely mentions it a lot that she's, around five dudes all the time. I think that we are making, this isn't the answer really that. Like, do I do something special? Yes. Like, we'll get her a massage sometimes. Like, you know, we'll buy her a gift card to a massage

randomly. I've done that before. Sometimes I'll tell her like, hey, do you need to get your nails done? Like, you should do it this week. Give her a break. And then I would say about twice or three times a month she goes to dinner with the girls. I love that.

Okay. So like that's kind of and she builds that in. I don't tell her to do that. She's just like, hey, me and the girls are going to go to a movie. Let her rip. And then, you know, it's crazy though. The boys like, if she's gone more than like an hour and a half or two hours, they're like, when's mom coming back? Like, where's mom at?

Yeah. Because they're such mama's boys for sure. Are all of them? Yeah. Not the oldest. The oldest him and I can hang out. Like, just watch movies all day. Listen to music, talk about music, watch sports.

Do you think the other three it's related to age more than it is? Probably. I feel like they all, don't get me wrong, I think they all will be. I think every boy has the mama's boy trait. There's a connection for sure that like, I mean, it's their, it's their, it's their, it's the woman in their life. Well, it's no different than daddy's girls. There's a connection in those situations for sure. But something that is not super special, but we're trying to do because she lives with five boys is not to fart as much.

Like, we are making a conscious effort because she has made it very clear that she does not like it. I mean, that's fair. That's a lot of fumes happening in one house all the time. And like the, we're, I mean, we're constantly farting. Like, everyone at the dinner table, it's, it's forbidden. But like somebody always slips every night and we're just like, dude, stop. Sometimes it's me. And then we're just like, we're sorry.

Like what do you want us to do? Go to the bathroom. Yes, go to the bathroom next time. Like, we're going to give him the bathroom the whole time then. I might as well take my food in there. It's like, okay. Oh, my God. Okay, the fact that you guys are consciously now making that effort.

We're trying. That's a big one. Okay. Yes. Well, because it is Memorial Weekend, Rick from Oregon wants to know what's on the barbecue menu for the holiday weekend. Ooh, man. That's a good question.

I think, uh... Or are you doing anything? I think, yeah, almost every weekend. kind of assigned to do something at this point. Like, it kind of goes with the weekend. Like, all right, Saturday, what are you cooking? That's your day to do something. Yeah, because every, most days of the week, my wife cooks dinner.

Like, if for some reason I have an easy week or like an easy day where I don't have a lot going on, I'll be like, you know what? I'm going to, I'll grill something tonight. Yeah. But it's pretty rare. Saturday is kind of my time to do it. And I would think that we haven't done fajita tacos in a while, which is like my go-to. But I feel like that's going to happen this weekend. That's what you're feeling right now in this moment.

Haven't really decided. But I think that that's going to be it. That's fun. Yeah. That was a big thing. Honestly, I remember a lot growing up. My dad would always grill and I'd always eat corn on the cob. It was like my favorite thing because they would always obviously eat me.

I was eating corn on the cob. He would put it on the grill. It's the best. It's the best. There's no better corn on the cob. So easy to do if people don't realize that like just putting the corn on the cob, you can do it without wrapped, but sometimes when you wrap it and you put the butter in there. And that's what he does.

Dude, that's so good. All this seasoning. It had salt and pepper on it. And then I eat green beans and I get a baked potato. It would bake potato. It was also on the grill. Yeah. Put it in foil in there.

Like, yeah. Because he would grow once like every weekend and it was our thing. What was his thing to grill? He always did chicken. Chicken was a big thing for him. So. Do you like chicken breasts or would he do like? Yeah.

I think they're. Yeah, because they were like grilled chicken breasts, but he'd do seasonings on them and he'd marinate them in different ways and all the stuff. And then I got excited about all the sides that he'd do. And he'd always get garlic bread. And that was my favorite. That's good. How would you handle the smells? It never really bothered me because.

That's crazy. It doesn't bother me when people do it now. You know. Man, if I smell like a good smell of food cooking, I'm just like whatever it is, I want it. Like, I'll eat it right now. That's how I feel about dessert, though. So maybe that's just where my comes in. And you can need that.

Like if I smell a cookie or brownie or ice cream or like any pastry, I'm like give me all of that. So good. And maybe because I don't like meat, that's also why. I don't know. But sometimes they smell good. They ever tell you about my neighbor in like in Austin? He was a vegan, I think. Oh yeah.

And he smelled you cooking and came over. I know. This is months, months of me grilling. And he would just come over and be like, well, what are you making? And he'll be like, oh, steaks, you want something? He's like, no, man, I can't eat that. And like two months later, he's just like, screw it. Just give it, give it to me.

I haven't had meat in, like, I don't know how many years, but I want it. Give it to me. Was he, like, vegan by choice? I can't remember. I don't remember. That's so funny. But he was so like, no, dude, I don't eat meat. Like, don't eat meat.

Can't do that, but it smells really good. He just couldn't take it after two months. Oh, my gosh. Okay. Why are you so apprehensive to go to a doctor even if just for a wellness check? Nina in Florida. Oh, I'm not. I go to doctor all the time. I think the, I'm a huge believer in, uh, natural, um, wellness first. And if it's something that can't be done, like, like my gut, we've talked about like, you know, autoimmune gut, whatever. Like it's, I've seen it over and over and over and over with me. Like for the past, I don't know, 15 years, like, I've seen when I change my lifestyle, how everything gets better. Yeah.

And then I just go back to like, oh, I've had a hard week. Give me ice cream and pizza. Oh, give me Cheetos. And I can't have pizza without a Coke. And then like, next thing you know, I'm just, I'm back. You're spiraling. And I know that like, I know that when I eat clean, my body is like, thank. Oh, like, thank you.

I can function. So part of me is like if I go to a doctor just to get like whatever I need done, I'm just making something else do that for me when I could do it myself. Yeah. You know what I mean? It is true. Your diet heavily influences your lifestyle. Right.

Now, if I have cancer, I'm going to go to the doctor and like get this taken care of however I need to. You know what I mean? Yeah. But if there's something that I can do naturally first, which I know it's been proven to me, I can see it. I listen to my body. My body is saying like stop putting that crap in me. but I don't I can't help myself sometimes yeah well and again I've I have said this and I will hit the nail on it every time but it the world does not make it easy to be healthy no the

convenience of it is we are in a society that does not want you to be the healthiest version of yourself correct unfortunately right we've grown up on it and so that's where we are now and so it makes it really difficult to do that every day especially if you have kids yeah if you have a life that that is not your entire life. No. You know, if you're a fitness instructor or a dietitian, you might be a little bit easier. Yeah. But to do that, it makes it really hard.

And it's expensive. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Very expensive. There's nothing about being healthy right now that's easy. Yeah. So even though you know what the answer is, it's hard to make it happen. It's hard to make it happen for me.

And I feel too. I feel too. If I said like, you know what? Oh, screw it. Just give me the pill. I would just take the pill and then still eat like crap. And I wouldn't be doing my body. I wouldn't be doing it the way I'm supposed to be doing it.

Yeah. So you want to use it as a last resort. I really do. And it's like, and again, I'll probably fall back into it. You know what I mean? I've been doing this for so long. Yeah. And it's okay because sometimes you, your body is saying, I need this right now because

life is hard. Yeah. And sometimes I call it soul food versus like body food. A lot of times, 90% of my life, I need body food. 10% I'm going to eat that soul food. That soul food, man. It's been a rough week. Sometimes you just got to give me that margarita.

Yeah. And you'll see me do it. And some people will be like, I thought you're, I thought you're vegan gluten-free. I hate that. I hate that. I hate that. My father-in-law does that crap to me all the time. When I go home for Christmas, he's like, oh, I thought you weren't eating carbs.

Like, stop. I've had a day, all right? Like, stop judging me. Yeah. And dairy makes me super inflamed. I feel like a blowfish. But you know what? There are some days that I see something that is full of gluten and dairy.

And I'm like, I need that in my life. I deserve it. Exactly. Give it to me. And I will be fine and I'll deal with my consequences. But it's also funny because when I'm in my consequences, I'm like, wow. Look at my fiance. I'm like, why did you let me have that?

I really like, it's his fault. But you know what's funny too is as soon as you swallow it, it's like, why did I do that? Yep. I literally had this moment because Eddie was sitting here. I was waiting for him to do this. and I had broken my vass. Like I was done. I had hit my 24 hours and I was starving.

Like you would have thought I was a trash bag trying to eat things. Like I'm a raccoon. And there's muffins like these mini muffins in there and they're not gluten free or dairy free. And I was like, I want those muffins so bad. And I'm eating them. I was like, these taste so horrible. But why am I still eating? Why?

It makes no sense. It's horrible. So I get it. Yeah. I respect it. Yeah. There we go. Well, there's that.

Maria also wants to give you a shout out. She said, I love you, Eddie. You're not a hater at all. Please don't listen to all the real haters. Thanks, Maria. And also, Heather thought that the photo I posted of you was a very handsome photo of you. Oh. So.

I didn't see it. Okay. Is that the one with my glasses? Was I holding my glasses? Yeah, you're editing. I just snapped a shot of you really quick. And Trisha says you are her favorite. Hands down.

You're hilarious. Oh, thank you. I'd give you some shout-outs. I love that. Thank you. Make me feel good about myself. Yeah. Travel Ball versus recreational baseball.

Jessica from Ohio. Don't do travel ball Like I don't do I'm not saying don't do it I'm saying I don't do it We don't do travel ball I just don't see the benefits of doing travel ball I've been

I've traveled before And I've seen travel teams at a hotel And I've seen the parents at a bar While the kids are at the pool They don't look happy It just doesn't Look my thing is like My kids aren't gonna play in the NFL

They're not gonna play in the NBA How do you know that though? No, they're really not. Like, they're just not. They're not going to have the heights to play in the NBA. And they don't have the, the talent. I wouldn't say the skill, because my kids are really skilled. They have a lot of skills.

They've been doing lessons for so long that they're really good ballplayers. But they don't have the talent, the natural talent to be NBA players. Like, they have the skill for sure, but they won't have the height and they won't have the talent. So I think best case scenario, we're looking at them. playing in a small college? I was insane, but what about college ball? Yeah, they could probably play in a small college. But traveling, being part of a travel tournament doesn't, that to me, doesn't guarantee

the college. Like you're speaking a little bit here from the parenting experience of what it's like to travel ball. Man, but like, so we do AAU tournaments locally, right? And locally meaning 40 mile radius. we sometimes we travel like 40 miles for a tournament but twice a year there is a national tournament here where teams from all over the country come and they they play here in Nashville my kids play in that they they their teams play in that tournament when they play in that tournament

they get crushed like because the talent in the nation is so freaking good so why would I go to St. Louis to go get crushed? Why would I travel to Chicago to just get slaughtered? And it just doesn't make sense to me, you know? And I think that they'll have a good chance of playing college without doing the whole travel thing. And plus, travel ball is so expensive. It is. And you know what? I will tell you, I feel like travel ball also burns them out. I mean, speaking from literally personal experience. We've talked about this. You're right. It burned the crap out of me. I loved it. It's some of my favorite memories and I wouldn't take it back. But it was rough.

I mean, I quit before high school because I was so over it. And it was more burnout because of coaches and stuff. So it really depends on the situation. Was it fun to travel? So much fun. I have my whole pin collection. Did they do that in baseball where you collect pins from other teams? Uh-uh.

Oh my gosh, we would trade pins. They're like little pins that you could wear, but you put them in a booklet from different states. I feel like the girls are a little more thoughtful with stuff like that. It was always a thing. The boys don't do, they don't trade pins. I have to believe that the boys are doing something cool because that was like one of our favorite parts of tournaments. That is cool. Is you would get a pin and you try and collect it from the different states.

I definitely had every state plus like other places. Maybe they do patches. I've seen some kids with like bags and they have different patches on them. Maybe that's it. Maybe they're doing patches. But I love travel ball. It was fun. It was a cool experience.

But I totally get burnout. I get the money. I get the time. Yeah. Because that's my, that was my entire life for several years. Yeah. And I wasn't home on the weekends doing stuff.

I think having them in leagues is really good, though. Like, you know, year-round leagues is great just because they stay active. They get to play on teams. You get to the whole benefit of them, like, just being in something is really cool. Yeah, I love that. Okay, we're going to do one more here real quick. We need updates on pets. How is Eddie's dog?

Coachella. She's good. And Morgan Hall are your pets health, Allen in Florida. Do you want to go first? How is Coachella? Coachella's good. She's getting old. How old is she now?

Oh, man. I mean, I would say she's probably. 11. But it's still in good health? It's like she's older. Like she's got a little bit of, they told to me like the eye, her eyes are like, you know. Are they foggy? Yeah, they're getting a little foggy. So she's definitely got the old old lady thing going on. She doesn't seem like she's missing a step. You know, like she's still, she's still very active. She still tries to go hide in her little spot, you know, whenever like the house gets loud. It's so funny. When the kids are loud, she kind of like goes into her little pet area.

She's like, this is enough for me. Yeah, she's like, it's getting too loud in here. Like, let me just go away. But she's good. She's got kind of her hind legs shake a little bit. You know? A little arthritis going on maybe. Yes, it's definitely that.

Like, she's good, but she's definitely getting older. Yeah. But yeah. Oh. I know. She's still hanging out in the one boy's room all the time? She's not allowed to go upstairs anymore, but sometimes she does. She ends up there somehow

Sometimes she sneaks up there We're like we haven't seen her in like an hour Like wait where's Coachella She's upstairs again Did you ever give the diapers a try? And she's in that spot no We never did the diapers But she hasn't had an accident

Since the only thing she's done is she's eating grass And thrown up you know Yeah and they often do that when they don't feel good It's weird like the natural instinct they have to do that I know well part of it like So like I grill you know And I have these grease pans And I saw her drinking

And I'm like, don't, you know that you're going to get sick. Well, but she smells me. Oh, of course she does. And she's a carnivore. I know. She's all fat and like, and then sure enough, like clockwork, she's throwing up in like an hour. Oh, yeah, that tracks. Yeah.

Well, I'm glad she's doing good, though. Yeah, she's good. She's hanging in there. 11? 11. Remy just turned 11 too. 11? I think 11, you know, when you adopt a dog, you really don't know. No one really knows.

Yeah. I remember Kenny from the Humane Association. He's like, I don't know, man. I would guess. Maybe she's four. Yeah, like rough idea. Yeah, we don't know. Yeah, that's definitely how they feel about Hazel for sure.

She's an older cat. But yeah, Remy's doing really well. She's adjusted to her diagnosis. She gets a shot every month. She gets medicine every day. And as long as we stay on those, she does really well. Good. You would never know that something happened.

So I hope you stay that way. Are you still making fresh chicken for her? Oh, yeah. Fresh food, all the things, lots of supplements. Just try. She takes a daily. I call it her morning treat. Oh, it's a joint.

Testosterone? She takes tea. I'm actually related to Coachella, but I'm sure we can go there. Coachella, the arthritis, she takes like a morning treat and it's for like joints. It's a morning treat? I call it her morning treat. That's how I get her to take it. It's just like it literally is a treat, but it's for hip and joint movement.

It's just a supplement. Where do you buy it? Online. I can give it to you if it'll help you guys. Yeah. And she loves it. She'll eat it right up. So it's no big deal.

But so she's doing great. She hates that she has to get shots once a month. That's pretty brutal. Does she react to the shot? They take her back and it's a good thing. She will not even. She will not get blood work anything with me in the room because she looks at me and winds at me so loud.

Like are you going to let this happen? Yeah. Like why are you letting this happen? Yeah. And so it doesn't work. So they have to take her back. And, but I have to bribe her with a whole jerky stick all the whole time. So she gets just get a lot of treats right now.

It's so funny. They'll do anything for her. freaking jerky stick. Anything. So food motivated and it makes my life so much easier. Yeah. It really does. And then Hazel, she's fluids three times a week.

So it's a little rough, but we're doing it. Why the fluids? Kidney disease. So the only way to keep her from having, like, kidney infections is to keep her flushing. And so being on the fluids is a really good thing for her. It seems she's at least stable now and it's not fluid. And we have, like, medicine on deck in case she does get kidney.

infections, cats get stressed very easily. So as long as we keep her from getting stressed, we're golden until she no longer wants to do it. So that's the hardest part with her. She's definitely more of the harder one right now. Just poking her three times a week is rough. That's tough. And she claws at me. Yeah. Poor Braden has to be the one to put the needle in. But you're holding her? Yeah. I have to kind of restrain her and keep her confined to do it because she doesn't want it. But I'm like, we call it her Gatorade. She needs it. It's literally gated.

Is it like bright green? No. Because that'd be cool. It's like lean. So it's like it has electrolytes and stuff in it for her. It's like Gatorade. Yeah. This is her Gatorade.

We're like, you're getting your Gatorade right now. It's going to be fine. It's lemon lime. It's good. But I hate getting poked with a needle once a year. So I can't imagine three times a week. Yeah.

So they're both doing well though with both of them. And then what about her friends showing up? Oh, no. We'll find out. They keep hanging out. I keep feeding them though. I probably should. Well, that's why they keep hanging out, Morgan.

I feel bad. I would love... They're probably coming from a place where they get fed. I don't know. I don't know. We have a pretty big feral cat colony, but we do also have cats that are... For some reason, people have indoor, outdoor cats in the city.

I get it on a farm. I will never understand it in the city. In the city, it is kind of weird. Like, there's so much bad things that can happen in a city. On a farm, they have an entire place to run. Yeah, there's a lot of traffic in the city. Yeah, it's wild to me. So we do have some of those.

It's hard to figure out. But most of the time with their in indoor outdoor, they have a collar on and none of these have collars. So it's hard to tell. Are they skinny? No, they look very well. And they're friendly. They're probably munching on rats or something. Mice.

I'm sure, which is why we also can't bring them inside. That disease could happen. And both Remy and Hazel cannot get stressed. They're two diseases impacted by stress. Sure. And so bringing in other animals doesn't work. So that's why we've had to stop. Remy's retired from therapy work.

She's living that retired life. She is. She's officially retired. We don't foster anymore because we can't. And then obviously I can't adopt anymore either because of their situation. So they're their primary focus for the rest of their lives. All right. That's where we're at.

Yeah. Okay. We need to get out of here. Okay. I need to go. We need to go. We're good. What else can I talk about?

Any where can they find you? At producer Eddie, all the things. Ooh, I do a lot of Bobbycasts now. So like, I'm on Netflix. sometimes it's kind of cool. You say that really humbly, but I know you wanted to brag about that. It's kind of cool. Like, it's kind of cool.
