On a recent episode of the podcast Money and Wealth with John Hope Bryant, I sit down with
Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money.
What would that look like in our families if everyone was.
able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here.
We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth,
starting with the mindset shifts.
Too many of us were never, ever taught.
If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more.

So I'm Leanne.
Yeah.
This is my best friend, Janet.
Hey.
And we have been joined at the hips since high school.
Absolutely.
A redacted amount of years later, we're still joined at the hip.
Just a little bit bigger hips.
This is a podcast.
We're recording it as we tailgate our youth soccer games in the back of my Honda Odyssey.
With all the snacks and drinks.
Why did you get hard seltzer instead of beer?
Oh, they hit a bogo.
Well, then you got it.

Hey guys, Sunday sampler time.
We're giving you some highlights from some of the Nashville Podcast Network podcasts.
And also, there are really no new podcast today anyway because it's Sunday.
You're going to like the Bobbycast.
I sat down with a really prolific, very famous.
He's killing it right now.
Songwriter and producer who did the Morgan Wall and stuff, a bunch of that,
the Post Malone record.
In the vet's office with Dr. Josie, she talked to an ER vet, which is crazy.
on Take This Personally, which is Morgan's podcast.
Morgan's good friend and country artist Julia Cole came by and they talked about heartbreak.
Julia lets people in under broken off engagement for the first time.
Morgan talks about her breakup.
So let's start with that.
Here's a clip of this week's episode of Take This Personally.
I'm dubbing this, the heartbreak episode because I have known Julia my entire Nashville life.
She was one of my very first friends here.
You guys may know Miss Julia.
Nicole as a very famous artist in Nashville, has lots of followings on TikTok and Instagram and
viral videos and she's just a giant star. But she's my good friend and all I know her as is
Julia. And the crazy thing though for Julia and I, as we've both seen each other through some
really, really tough relationships. The good, the bad and the ugly. Yes. We've had to milk some
some heart breaks and have some girls nights out to solve our problems.
So I've had a lot of conversations with people after this, in this past year, and I've had people
telling me that you're supposed to, you're supposed to date multiple people. Obviously,
you're not going to a certain level here. This is like going to dinner, going to coffee.
It's like you're supposed to, you know, meet different people until you've decided that you
really, really like someone. I've never in my life felt like I could do that because it felt like
like loyalty is something so important to me and so so special that it was like oh well if if i'm
even texting this person i should probably not be texting anybody else and that is like i mean i'd
honestly like to know people's opinions on that and your opinion on that because i really don't know
like what's the standard this is not this isn't courting like it was back in our grandparents day and
age where you date you know 10 different people at once and then like all of a sudden one would just like
propose and you get married.
I have multiple things on this.
One, I don't think it's a bad thing that you want to be fiercely loyal.
I have that in me.
I'm going to date somebody and I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure
that that person feels all of that loyalty all the time.
Yeah.
And I've never cheated on anybody.
I don't have that capability in my bone.
Doesn't make much sense, does it?
No.
Like, just break up.
You know, I don't understand.
Just literally just break up and date the next person you wanted to date.
Just call me and say, hey, it's over.
I'd be like, okay, I'm going to cry, but like, whatever, stupid.
But I do think dating people is important.
I have gone on so many dates in my life.
And I'm not talking like even third, fourth, fifth dates.
I'm talking about first, second, third dates.
I've been on so many because I wanted to learn what I wanted.
And this is a really interesting thing that got like brought up that will that will spiral into
this.
I learned so much about myself by dating other people of different cultures of different
religions of different backgrounds of different upbrings.
I learned so many things of what I wanted, what I didn't want.
And I can narrow that down so heavily that that's why it's so hard for me now to date
because I know fiercely what I want.
All of those multiple dates of saying my favorite color and walking through the small
talk and saying, yes, I'm a vegetarian. Where'd you go to college?
Yeah. Let's go through them a million times over. And as much as they sucked and I hated
getting dressed up and I hated getting ready just to have something fail again. Maybe be nice,
maybe be a waste of your two hours. Yeah. I did, I did kind of change my mentality when I was
dating probably my mid-20s or I was like, I'm doing everything for the plot. My whole life
became I'm doing it for the plot because I genuinely could not go on date.
and like not think I was getting punked by Ashton Coucher.
There were moments where I was like, this isn't real.
There's no way.
But it was.
So when I would leave those, I'd be like, I did it for the plot.
Great story.
Great story.
Never again.
Yeah.
But I learned so much about who I was.
And it's funny because I had this conversation with my sister on the phone.
I said, I'm so tired of being these men lessons.
And I'm the heartbreak.
Yeah.
Like, why am I the one who I took all the time?
I didn't hurt anybody and I took all the time to figure out stuff about myself.
But these men come in relationships with me and I have to be the one how they get their lesson.
I'm this emotional punching bag for them to just figure things out.
I think we go into relationships this day and age so carelessly.
I think dating stops that.
think going on dates casually stops you from going in half-hearted or not knowing what you want.
Like when all those people were saying, you should love yourself before you're in a relationship.
I think we almost had it right because I think you can love yourself in a relationship.
I think you can learn self-love with friends, with a partner.
I don't know that you necessarily need to be completed in self-love to be in a relationship.
I think you need to know yourself.
Oh, yeah.
Fundamentally.
Yes.
your non-negotiables, your boundaries, what you stand for, who you are as a human being.
Because so many people don't.
I think you have to grow up a little bit to know all of that.
Yeah.
And I'm seeing a lot of people, you know, dive in super young.
I'm from the South.
I'm from Texas.
Like I know a lot of people who got married super young.
And it's like, I am not the same person that I was even two years ago.
You're listening to In the Vets Office with Dr. Josie Horchak.
Now I figured we can really dive into all things wellness.
I want to keep it simple, but still feel like people get informed.
And so I thought we would be good to like break it down into two sections.
So I figure the first section we can just talk about vaccines.
Like what in the heck are these vaccines that are being recommended to me?
I feel like we just come in and we're like they're due for X, Y, and Z.
And people are just like, okay, yeah, like you say so.
let's do it. But I feel like it's good to understand why your pet is getting these vaccinations.
So the first, the big one, the big shebang, the non-negotiable for me is the rabies vaccine.
Definitely. I think most of our clients, if they're going to know any vaccine, it's going to be the rabies vaccine.
Yes. And the thing for me is that I didn't realize really until I got to vet school is like,
rabies is real. You hear about it. And you're like, we don't see that anymore. Like, that's from like old yellow.
or like a decade ago.
But like, it's real.
We just had a case here in Tennessee.
And if you contract rabies as a human and you don't get treated right away,
like you will die, there is not a cure.
And we see it.
Yeah, I saw a case of rabies in the ER when I was working there.
That's terrifying.
Yeah, terrifying.
And I also think, I guess I didn't really understand this until I was like practicing
in general practice too, but like this vaccine is required by the state.
Yes.
I don't think it's required by all states, but in Tennessee, it is required for you to vaccinate your dog or your cat by six months of age.
Yeah.
And if you don't, and they find out, it's a class C misdemeanor.
I didn't know that either.
So, yeah, it's the law.
It's the law.
It's really important.
It's a public health risk.
And if you don't do it, like we kind of have to look like the bad guys.
We're like, okay, you don't have to.
We can't force you into it, but you have to understand the ramifications of it.
and you have to sign a document.
So it's a big deal.
What was the case that you saw in the ER that had rabies?
It was actually rabies was not at the top of anyone's list
thinking this dog had rabies because, again,
no one actually understands that it's real.
This dog came in for seizures and it was just neurological.
And in the ER, like we saw seizures once a day.
Yeah.
So having a dog come in for seizures is not abnormal.
So we kind of just went through the normal protocol of getting the dog hospitalized, getting them started on seizure meds.
And along the line, a lot of people came in contact with this dog.
And the dog just wasn't responding to any of the seizure meds, which is unusual, especially for a dog presenting procedures the first time.
So the neurology service ended up getting involved.
and the only way to test for rabies, unfortunately, in dogs is by testing a piece of their brain tissue.
And so oftentimes we don't get a diagnosis until they're already deceased.
Yeah.
Just for all of you out there, like, I know this is gruesome, but the reality is, like, we have to cut their head off and send it into the lab.
That's how we test for it.
So it's not an easy test.
And if there is any suspicion that your pet has rabies, like, that's the way we test.
for it. So even more reason to get them vaccinated. Right. So this dog ended up being hospitalized
for a while coming into contact with a lot of different staff members. And then it ended up,
I think, being euthanized because it wasn't responding. And then we found out later that
she wasn't up to date on her rabies vaccine. And so she was sent for testing, came back positive.
And anyone who was in contact with her had to get the rabies prophylaxis.
vaccine treatment, which is intense. And expensive. Very expensive. Yeah. I don't think your insurance
covers that. So very scary, very scary because, I mean, just coming into contact with the saliva
of a dog who's seizing is very easy. Very easy. And rabies is transmitted most commonly through bites,
but through body leaf fluids. So very, very scary, very real. Another thing I hear owners say is,
oh, well, my dog doesn't really go outside.
And you just had a case or someone in the hospital had a case last week of a cat having a bat in its mouth that got in the house.
It wasn't my case, but yeah, indoor only cat.
So most people would be like, why do I need to vaccinate my indoor only cat for rabies?
But the family, I guess, saw the cat with a live bat in its mouth.
He's like running by like, hey guys, look what I got.
And bats are the number one.
common carrier of rabies. So that cat had to come into the hospital and get
boosted for its rabies vaccine. Even though it was up to date, we booster them early.
Yeah. And then, yeah, not only for the safety of the pets, but like if you have kids in your
home and your cat gets rabies, like, you know, it's, yeah, you got to vaccinate them so that we
can be protected as well because vaccination against rabies and people is not common.
No. A win is a win. A win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying.
Yep.

Everyone, I'm Ago Vodam.
My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live,
and the Big Money Players Network.
It's Will Ferrell.
Woo, 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.
There's a lot of luck.
Listen to Thanks, Dad, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
You can have opinions.
You can have like a strong stance.
And then there's your body having its own program.
I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans,
a show about who we are and who.
who we become when life makes other plans. We share stories and scientific insights to help us all
better navigate these periods of turbulence and transformation. There is one finding that is consistent,
and that is that our resilience rests on our relationships. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so
long the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us

I found him to be very sweet.
I think that's a great word.
Like, I think I've had three occasions where I've spent more than three minutes with them.
And very, like, sweet and kind feeling.
And he felt like he was sensitive to what I wanted to talk about or my.
And I did not expect that from somebody who was.
It didn't matter who it was, but somebody who was just so wildly famous.
Yeah.
You know, having been around other people that are famous,
it's usually not that way.
A lot of times, you'll know this better than anyone.
People that are wildly famous, they're that way
because they demand all the attention.
They demand, it's very much a me-centric world in the world of entertainment.
But I did not, any time that I was with him,
I did not find that at all, which was extremely different than what I was used to.
Yeah, I would say he kind of stuck with that, too.
I mean, he's the same.
And he, you know, is just like conscious of the people around them.
And, you know, obviously a big, yes, ma'am, yes, sir, to everybody making sure.
You know, he'll also sign more autographs than most people.
Like, he'll sit there and do it for everybody.
Whereas it's like, you know, I've been with a lot of artists who, you know, you've got to leave.
You've got to go to the next thing.
Which is not even anything bad on them.
They're actually busy.
He came and played the Riemann Show with me.
It was super cool.
And he stayed longer than any other artist.
He took pictures with every.
person.
And I posted about it.
And I was like, and a little bit,
it was to some of these guys that won't do anything.
It's like, you got a guy that's 20x famous than you.
And he spent a time with every single person
that has stayed back to say hello.
And again, I found that to be super cool.
I'm assuming you guys still work well together.
I mean, you're doing the record.
As we talk, it's not out yet,
but by the time this is hurt, it is out.
And so how long, how many years have you?
you guys work together now?
It's a long time.
Yeah, technically a long time.
We definitely spent some time not working together as well.
Got it.
But that being the case.
How long have you known?
Yeah, we started working.
We probably did our first song,
either late 2014 or early 2015.
10 years, huh?
Yeah.
That's crazy.
So 2015, we were locked in,
really doing a lot of stuff.
You know, technically,
and I don't know where it says it,
I guess you got to buy the physical copy of his first album.
Technically, I'm an executive.
producer on that album. I didn't really do all the work necessary.
It's a really executive producer, but that was kind of where we were locked in on his first
album. And then, you know, kind of went separate ways for a little bit. And then, you know,
I caught, I think I put a song on his album two albums ago. It was a random song that I sent
him, you know. But we weren't, you know, we weren't actually working as much. I was
living in Nashville doing my thing. He was doing his thing. And then, uh,
We had talked about doing a country album back in 2015.
And, you know, I go back and forth on power manifestation shit,
but we did say album six.
That was the conversation where, like, your sixth album could be country.
And you could do a pull-a-reverse Taylor Swift
and, like, be the biggest pop star.
And then do a country album.
So when he asked me to do this album, it was cool because I was just like, wait a minute,
how many albums have you had?
He's like, five.
I was like, shit.
What do you mean you go back and forth on the manifestation?
What are your two areas you live in?
No, some of it doesn't really make sense.
I understand that if you're saying something and thinking about it,
you'll actively start making moves towards it.
But some of it's just kind of ridiculous.
Like, and it feels like it shouldn't be real.
But it might be?
Yeah, but it might be.
And that's why I don't like.
Because then I get into these weird,
who's got stronger manifestation,
if we're both manifesting the opposite.
I started looking at that.
Yeah, and I think that too, like,
if two people are praying opposite things,
even in that way.
Right.
Who wins?
Yeah, it's like,
so sometimes like someone will say something to me
and I'll be like, oh, like, you know, take that back.
Or don't say that.
You know?
Yeah.
Or like, I'll be like, oh, your manifestation power is weak,
so I'm not worried.
Because like people will say some shit, you know.
Yeah, I think about too, and again,
this is just my weird brain going down places
that I probably spend way too much time
that makes nothing good for me.
But I'll think about either
if it's manifestation or,
prayer or however you want to even describe that that communication within yourself or to others
but you'll see somebody on facebook like hey we could use all these prayers but do all these what's
the number that becomes all these is all these more than one does if it's just one does one count as
equal as all these interesting i think about that a lot because you know if you get 10,000 people
to pray for something does that mean it's more powerful than if you just prayed for it by yourself
and if so let's we need to get a prayer go fund me just for the bigger causes then and get more people
So, yeah, I get tired thinking about stuff like that.
That's interesting.
And it's also that you bring up prayer because it's a separate thing.
Because I'll pray too, but I don't, almost exclusively, I don't ask for anything in prayer.
Like I'll pray more for a situation.
Okay, rephrase.
I'll ask for somebody who maybe is hurt or somebody who maybe is going through some shit.
But, you know, or a safety thing.
But it's never like, man, can I get a number one song?
I'm not asking for something.
shit like that.
Cast a row thing.
Little fool for your soul.
Life ain't always pretty,
but hey, it's pretty beautiful things.
Laugh a little more things.
Tighten up your core thing.
Said E.K.
You're kicking it with four things.
With Amy Brown.
I think that everyone's been through different seasons of life where they get stuck maybe
in a pattern or cycle where they can realize there's a lot.
a negativity happening. But once you can make that shift, you can really see the difference.
Even just believing that what does this circumstance make possible, believing that something
can come from this, some sort of growth, some sort of change that is going to be positive.
Of course, I didn't want my mother to have cancer. I didn't want to lose her. But a lot of amazing
things came from that. I can even think back to my childhood. I didn't want my parents to get
divorced. But a lot of amazing things happened from that. My mom's life was completely
transformed because of the divorce. That's when we finally started going to church. We didn't go before
that. And then she became a completely different person, not being able to get pregnant. Now I've got two
beautiful adopted children, now 17 and 14, and things that seemed negative and hard, but what did
they make possible? And I think just maintaining that faith, that hope, that there's a bigger picture
here. That's right. And if you can find a way to put yourself at a different point in the story,
your suffering. What you just said is it turns out to be true that all the research that looks at
suffering and cancer patients are a great example has been well studied where a huge majority,
like way more than you can imagine, of people who are going through cancer, even that ultimately
succumb to it, say things like what you just described of your mother, that they actually
find that they've grown through it, they've found purpose through it, that their lives have
become enriched by it. So it's almost like suffering is not optional if you want to be a really well-rounded
and fully developed human. It's almost necessary. Like you have to go through hard things if you want to
become a really fully developed person. And so we find gratitude through those hard moments because we
recognize that they've given us experiences and opportunities to change and grow and learn and connect with
other people in ways that we wouldn't have been able to do if we hadn't gone through suffering.
And it's interesting because just like we talked about a while ago with quantum physics,
like this idea that two things can be true at the same time, like it's never going to be okay.
that I lost my son.
Like I'm just as sad and broken about that 11 years after it happened than I was
the day it happened.
You're not okay with you losing your mom and you never will be.
But at the same time,
it is true that I've grown,
I've written books,
I've connected with people all over the world.
Like a lot of the things that I am,
I'm a much more compassionate physician and husband and father and grandfather now
than I was before I lost my son.
All of that because of having suffered.
So doesn't make it good.
Doesn't make it right.
you would trade it all for having your mom back or I'd trade it all for having my son back.
But that sort of secret sauce of life turns out to be this meaning that we find because we
navigated through something hard.
And on the brain science side, it's true too.
Like you look at what makes resilience in the brain is this area called the mid-antier
singular.
And what they find is when you do hard things, it becomes easier for you to do hard things
in the future, like all across the board.
So you do something that's hard, even if you don't want to, your brain gets more resilient.
and you develop more willpower and you find more sort of joy in engaging in hard things the next time.
So it's almost like you start saying, I'm ready for the next thing that's hurt, that it's going to hurt,
because I know I can get through it because I've done it before.
Is there a magic number of how many times we have to do something for that new neural pathway to be built,
or is it different for everybody?
Well, it's different for everybody, but on the basic physiology side, there's a structure in your brain called microtubules.
and that's the stuff that makes new synapses, the little building blocks of new synapses.
And they start happening within minutes of you trying something new or doing something new.
So that's why we always say on my show, like thoughts become things, because when you think about something,
you actually make something in your brain, structurally make changes in your brain.
And what happens is within minutes, you start laying down what's going to become ultimately the highway
towards making a new habit or making a new process.
But if you don't use it, continue to use that new thing.
it disappears within about three weeks.
And so in order to ingrain it and make it permanent,
you have to engage in that thing over and over and over for a while.
Some people say 21 days,
that's probably true for things that aren't sort of life or death.
It's probably longer for things that are really hard,
like giving up smoking or something probably takes longer than 21 days.
But in terms of what's happening in your brain,
it starts almost instantly in the first hour of you trying to make a change,
a positive change in your life.
You're making it structurally in your brain.
So that's encouraging.
It gives us hope because we feel like we can't change.
We feel like we're stuck.
We inherited the genes we inherited.
We went through the trauma that we went through.
And that means that we can't ever change.
But the truth is, as soon as you start trying to change, your brain's right there with you.
Well, so then that's epigenetics.
Right.
We have the ability to change certain parts.
You're probably the better person to describe this.
But I think I have a fear inside of me because both my parents had cancer that I'm going to get cancer.
and sometimes that is a thought that will take over,
and I immediately have to squash it and back up
because just because they had it does not mean I will,
but if I keep having those thoughts,
then I'm increasing the likelihood of something negative happening.
That's right, because so if you think about the big picture,
so epigenetics, if somebody's not familiar,
is that the things that we think about
and certain things that we go through and lifestyle choices
can turn on or off genes, so to speak,
up or down-regulate genes,
This is the way the biochemists call it.
And what that means is the genetic material that you inherit from mom and dad
is not guaranteed to be expressed or turned true in your life.
So we know that from identical twin studies, for example.
Identical twins often have very different length of life
and very different disease profiles that they get.
And it's because even though they have the same genetic starting point,
they don't have the same lives.
And so what that means is that your life has a lot of impact
in what genes get turned on and off.
So if both your parents have cancer, for example,
And you spend a lot of time worrying about that and stressing about it, your cortisol level is going to rise.
And the systems in your body that fight cancer and do things on your behalf to try to avoid cancer are going to be depleted because you're spending so much time in a negative biochemical state.
And your thoughts are becoming those things that are fighting against you and beating those cancer cells.
So it's true that you can spend time in your brain thinking healthier thoughts and that will promote an environment that's going to produce a better.
chemical environment to optimize the epigenetic opportunities that you have to turn things on
and off and make your life as good as it can be.
We're going to do it live.
We are the one, two, three, so are losers.
What up, everybody?
I am Lunchbox.
I know the most about sports.
I give you the sports facts.
My sports opinions because I'm pretty much a sports genius.
Y'all, it's Sisson.
I'm from the north.
I'm an alpha male.
I live on the north side of Nashville with Beazer, my wife.
We do have a farm.
It's beautiful.
A lot of acreage.
No animals.
A lot of crops, hopefully soon.
Corn, pumpkins.
Rye, I believe.
Maybe a little fescue.
To be determined.
Over to you, Coach.
And here's a clip from this week's episode of the Soar Losers.
Now they're going to remodel it and make it the hard rock.
Forgot.
Tropicana, they're knocking down.
A, stadium is going there.
go. So we go to this
lava show, 45 minute
lava show and I'm like, hell yeah,
hell yeah.
And we just happened to see it because it was in the same
parking lot as where we're eating at the soup
kitchen or whatever. At the soup kitchen, I mean
it sounds like such a party.
What are you guys doing? Like pregame drinks or what?
I had some beers
and had some soup.
What on the soup kitchen sign
enticed you guys have dinner there? My wife
was doing research and someone on Reddit said
nine months later, I'm still thinking about the
soup I had in this soup.
And I'm like, oh, man, this must be amazing
freaking soup. I'll do
crap, but that's about it. But my wife is a, she
loves soup. She loves it. Lobster
Bisk. Ah, no, they had
lamb soup. They eat a lot of lamb there because they have
lamb. They have more lambs, sheep, than
they do humans in Iceland.
Where's my flock? I tied it up here. Hopefully
parking's good. That's kind of like what they
sound like, but that's Canadian a little bit. So we
go to the lava show and I'm like, all right, and the soup was
okay, but it wasn't amazing. And I had
three different kinds. I had the corn
and spinach. I had the
fish curry one and
some other one. And then
we go to the lava show. And it's in a
room and they give you protective glasses.
You know what I mean? Because it's going to get so freaking hot.
Right, we took off our clothes.
So I'm like, 45 minutes of lava. Here we go.
All right. The lady closes
the door, comes in. She starts
talking, hi, my name is
Rack-or-la. And I'm like, whoa, this is about to be
awesome. Nice to meet you. I'm lunchbox.
She's like, welcome to the lava show.
The only place in the world where you can see real lava from a volcano up close.
And I'm like, she goes, it's going to get so hot.
You're going to need those goggles to protect your eyes.
That?
And I'm like, hell.
Yeah.
Honey, take off your bra.
So then she proceeded to stand up there for 15 minutes and give us a history of the town and the volcanoes that have erupted in that town.
What the queef?
And I'm like, okay, that's 15 minutes of my 45.
When are we going to get to the damn lava?
Not bad.
you still have 30 minutes of lava.
Then we have 30 minutes of lava.
She's like, honey, get ready to feel the rumble of the lava.
And she goes, now.
So before we get to the lava, let me show you a video.
No, I'm not doing the tours with the damn video.
Show me 3D, bitch.
Sorry, I'll delete that.
And I'm like, okay, so now we're going to watch a video.
So what was the video, right?
It was a 15-minute video.
We're at 30 minutes now.
It was a 15-minute video showing exactly what she just.
just talked about. That's bullshit.
So she talked about the history of the town.
Then they made a little cartoon video for you to enjoy of what she just told you about.
Nice learning about your town.
Like either way, just either play.
Show us the lava.
Where's the, I wanted to get hot in here.
Hot and here.
Sheeper boring.
Mew.
But I did learn if the volcano is going to erupt all the tourists.
You meet at the church on top of the hill.
That's the evacuation plant.
All right.
So where's the lava show?
Exactly. Where is the lava show, Ray?
Oh, that was it.
15 minute video?
All right.
She goes, all right, now should we get to the lava?
And so she does.
It comes rolling out of this, like, tube in the wall.
And there's lava, and she starts picking it up with this stick.
Now we're talking.
And she's making little things.
And then it freezes, and she's cracking it, and she's picking it up.
The lava's touching me.
Then she brings out a big old ice thing, a piece of ice and puts it in the lava and makes it blow up like a
a big balloon.
This is a science project?
Exactly what it was, Ray.
Baking soda and food coloring.
Dude, no, it was real lava.
Saw this in second grade.
It was real lava.
She got your ass.
Did you feel the hot?
Oh, I could feel the heat, man.
So they must have just pump the, obviously, the heater on.
No, no, they have to warm up.
So what they do is they go get the...
Ray, they actually turned the heater like 110.
They pretty much fucked us.
No, no, they go get the rocks, like the ash from, like the actual
volcanoes in the mountains. Okay. And they bring it in and they reheat it up and make it into lava.
That's making it better. Awesome. Okay.
She played with the lava for 10 minutes, then the show was over. See, you needed a little bit
more of that. Oh, you think? Yeah. It is advertised as a 45-minute lava show. Was it ever
lavying? No, it was lava. No, no, it was lava. It came out like lava, like it does out of a
volcano. Okay, that's pretty cool. I shouldn't have knocked it. It was pretty badass for 10 minutes,
but advertise it as 10 minutes and then I get out. I don't need to
Watch the damn video.
I like, she had the lava
like she's like having it rub on her.
No, no, no.
She had a metal pole because it was so hot.
She was fully naked.
It was actually a lava tit show.
No.
No.
And I'm like, wow, this is amazing, dude.
Amazing.
And we, then we're leaving.
We got to drive to the hotel.
We still got an hour to drive to the hotel.
And we get to the hotel.
And guess what?
They're already closed.
You can't check in.
Wait, it's your hotel.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
But in Iceland, nothing.
it was only 10 o'clock, but they only
stay on duty till 8. That's my biggest fear
of other countries. You never know when places
clothes. And I'm like, uh, and
everything, the lights are off, everything. We're like,
how the hell do we get in our room?
Break in. How do we do this?
We already paid online.
What do we do? Sleep under the volcano.
It's warm. So we bossed out our flashlights
and we're looking under Matt.
We're looking, I mean, we're looking.
They're going to think you're robbing the place.
I know.
That's what I was worried about.
Well, no shit.
Like, I'm going around.
the back, like maybe there's a hidden door
or something. You Americans in your crime
rates, freeze! And then, no, they don't have police, man. I don't think they have guns.
I don't think they have anything over in Iceland. It was, it was a, like,
there's no one there. It is empty. And so then I, oh, wait, wait, what's that sign
over there? It's on, on one of the windows that says, oh,
sorry we're not here to greet you, but we close at 8 p.m.
Just so you know, your cabin 5D, your key
is in the door.
Excuse me? Anybody, polar bear sleeping in there right now?
Dude. So you just go up and the key is in the door.
Quite the security system.
No, that's how nice it is in Iceland. They don't have any crime.
They got nothing on nest.
They have no problem. They just left the key in the door for us.
What do you mean you were robbed? I don't know. The door was open.
It was awesome. I was like, how cool is this?
Americans, of course, we tried to break in a back door.
We're trying to break in a back door and they're like, hey, just go to your cabin, man.
We left the key in the door.
and you look and there was other cabins that just had the key in the door so there was other families that hadn't arrived yet.
Honey, I'm going to go sleep in 5A if you don't mind.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care what you're saying.

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.

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.
There's a lot of luck.

Hey, it's Mike D.
And this week, our movie Mike's movie podcast, my wife Kelsey and I did our movies of the month where we go through all the movies we watched in August.
talked about the ones we recommend, best of the month, and the ones we don't recommend the worst
of the month. I want to play you this of us talking about our favorite movies as the summer
blockbuster season comes to an end. So be sure to check out this full episode. But right now,
here's just a little bit of Movie Mike's movie podcast. Movies of the month for August,
I feel like it's been one of the best months of the summer. Interesting. You don't? What was your
favorite month? July. Oh, July, I think was my least favorite. July had Twisters and Deadpool.
Yeah, but that was two.
And fly me to the moon.
I feel like there are so many more in August.
I'm looking at my list here and there's like eight movies.
Interesting.
That's a hot take.
I thought August was way stronger, which August is usually the decline of the summer
blockbuster season, but I felt like there were more hidden gems.
I have more fours in August than I did for July.
I don't agree with that, but the last time I told you that your take was stupid, someone
on the internet called me a not nice name.
Is it because you love Twisters so much that we've now seen twice?
Possibly we'll see for a third time in theaters.
We have a code now to watch it at home, thanks to everybody at Universal,
who sent us an awesome box if you didn't watch that on TikTok.
It was the greatest package we've ever received.
But is it because you love that movie so much?
No, there was just always something to see.
It was like the first weekend we saw Despicable Me 4.
Then there was fly me to the moon.
Then there was Twisters.
Then there was Deadpool and Twisters again.
Like, there was great stuff in July.
There was always something.
I feel like this month we kind of had to be like, okay, what's coming out this week?
What are we going to see?
And I think it's because we had lower expectations going into the movie.
this month that I felt like, oh, this is a really solid month and more. Before we get into our
favorite and our least favorite, I'll go through all the movies we saw. And we did see some
movies apart. You saw one without me. I saw one without you. This is correct. This is factual.
So going through the list, Trap, which you didn't see with me, the instigator, which was an at-home one,
D-D, Gunner, which was also, I watched that one at home. I had a screener for that. Alien Romulus,
which you didn't see with me. Sing-Sing. And then we closed it out with Blink twice. I feel like those
all together is a solid month.
And then I saw it ends with us.
True. I think that's better for me.
Okay. I still disagree, but.
We'll get into our best and the worst. You kick it off what was the best thing out of all
these for August. I'm going to go one that surprised me. Blink twice.
I was saying that I feel like this is a movie people are either going to love or hate.
TikTok is a buzz.
It's right. It's kind of polar opposites.
I think any movie, if you are concerned that you're not going to like it, you need to
the trailer. There were trigger warnings. Even the trailer, like, I didn't watch the trailer thinking
this is going to be funny. Like, you know that it's going to be kind of like a creepy
psychological thriller reviews compared it to get out before. And people are like, what did I
just watch? This was terrible. There were no warnings. I'm like, no, there was a literal
full screen warning before the movie. That leads me to believe there is still a select group of
people that would just go watch a movie based on the A-list star, based on the lead.
Yeah, the lady in the TikTok was like, I just wanted to watch Channing Tatum.
And it's like, okay.
Which is a bizarre way to go into a movie just because Channing Tatum, who you probably know from
Magic Mike and maybe haven't seen a Channing Tatum movie since or like 22 Jump Street,
21 Jump Street.
Step up.
And you think, oh yeah, that movie.
You forgot my favorite movie all the time.
I feel like he's had such an evolution as an actor, primarily being in the rom-coms.
Then he kind of shifted into being like the action star, which never really kicked off.
He kind of transitioned into being the comedic star.
which I think was kind of a juxtaposition of you see him and you don't think comedy,
but then he's really good at comedy.
He's great at comedy.
And now I feel like he's just making really good movies,
having one of the best years out of any actor.
He's having a summer.
So it's weird for me to see somebody go into just watching a movie
and thinking it's going to be everything he's done maybe 10, 15 years ago.
Yeah, I agree.
I think that, yeah, you just need to watch the trailer.
Like, if you're concerned at all about the movie,
I also think it was rated to art, wasn't it?
It was rated R.
That tells you all you need to know.
That tells you all you need to know.
And yeah, it was disturbing.
That's why there were trigger warnings.
And if you go into the movie, you see the trigger warning and think, I don't know if this is for me.
You can go get a refund.
I think a lot of people don't know that.
I think it's within the first 20 to 30 minutes, probably different based on the theater you go to.
You can still get a refund.
Should have done that when I took my grandmother to Talladega Nights.
So if you see that at the beginning and think, huh, I don't know if I'm in for that.
I also feel like that was a little bit rage bait.
My best of the month comes down to two movies, Alien Romulus and Didi, which Alien Romulus was the most surprising to me because, like we've been talking about this month, I went in with pretty low expectations and ended up really enjoying it, even though I'm not the biggest fan of the alien franchise as a whole.
But I think when it comes down to my favorite of the month, it goes to Didi.
Just because I haven't seen a movie take place in that time period done that well.
It's so good.
Like 2009, 2008 to 2009 is like a golden year for me.
And seeing all those things that D-D went through and realizing that also the director is like my age.
So I feel like that movie was made for somebody exactly my age, also somebody who their parents migrated from another country.
And it was also just, I won't call it a straight-on comedy.
There were some funny parts, but it was kind of a dromedy.
Yeah.
Where I wouldn't tell somebody, go watch this movie because it's hilarious.
but there are funny parts in it.
And I feel like that movie is relatable to anybody who's ever been a teenager.
That's really the prerequisite for it.
I mean, it captured similar to what we talked about like eighth grade.
It captured, which you probably related to this one more because it was a teenage boy,
whereas I did.
Eighth grade.
But it was like it captures the essence of that awkward time of being like 13, 14,
eighth grade into ninth grade.
And my trauma that I still haven't forgiven my parents for is that they moved me in the middle of eighth grade.
Eighth grade was my worst year ever.
They moved me in the middle of it, which was incredibly rude and difficult.
But I did meet my best friend, who was still my best friend to this day, on the bus.
And we were like the two weird kids and we've been best friends ever since.
So that was the only good thing.
But that was some trauma.
I think I lost any friend I made from six to seventh grade in eighth grade.
His grade is brutal.
It is so, and I don't even know why.
It just got to a point where I just stopped talking to people because they stopped talking to me.
Everyone thinks that they're better.
And then you get to ninth grade and it's like everyone who was terrible to you in eighth grade is like, hey, happy first day of school.
And you're like, me.
I still have the blade of my back from last year.
You're like, you literally spit on me.
Like, why are you being nice to me?
Yeah, I remember eating lunch alone a lot in eighth grade, making friends with people I did not want to be associated with just because they'd be the only ones who would sit around me at lunch.
And I just remember that time being awful.
I also apparently got a lot of hate because I came in and I was really smart and I would like raise my hand and answer questions.
And I didn't know.
I didn't really fully realize that being smart would put a target on your back, but it sucks to be all of them because I was smarter than all of them.
And I did graduate third in my class in high school.
That's a fun thing to talk about.
What were the things that put a target on your back in let's just say seventh and eighth grade?
You said that one.
For me, one of the big ones was just me wearing all black all the time, which people associated me with being emo, goth.
And I would get made fun of that all the time because I wore all black.
Having a hard to pronounce last name.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know why.
That just makes you a target.
Because would they make fun of it?
Yeah, I was telling my younger brother this story the other day.
And one time somebody made fun of my last name.
And I was like, sorry, take it up with my dad, dad.
And I shot him up.
That was a good comeback.
That's always like the Uno Reverse card.
Yeah, that like being smart, having a hard to pronounce last name.
And then weirdly, like, I had a hot mom, which it makes it really difficult to be a teenage girl.
From the teenage boy or the teenage girl.
The teenage boy.
Like, my mom would come have lunch with me at school.
And everyone would be like, oh, my God, who's that?
And I'm like, it's my mom.
I could tell they found my mom more attracted than they found me.
So that was all so difficult.
That's quite the top three there.
It was pretty rough.
For me, it was the all black clothing goes hand in hand with being into punk rock.
Number two was being chunky.
That's just an easy target.
number three, I guess being Mexican, just because people expect things out of me or assume
stereotypes about me. All right, now that we're through all of our traumas from school.
Now that we're through Kelsey's childhood trauma, thank you for joining. If anyone is a
psychologist listening, please let me know what's wrong with me. But there you go. Didi was my best.
Part two, are you ready? I'm ready. This microphone is rolling away, so I'm just going to hold it to my
face. I loved part one. We talked about the front half of Hannah. Yeah. But we can't stop now.
We can't because now we're getting to like the juiciest bits.
Yeah. So can we keep going? Can we dive in? I hope we do. Part two, here we come. I'd be sad if we didn't.
I know. This is like, oh my God, the main attraction. Buckle up. Here we come. We did a marriage
intensive. At onsite? No. Okay. And, but we did it with another couple. It was a two Christian,
like husband and wife, like counselor pairs. And so we would come in with them every day. And I was so
excited about it because I was like, we're going to fix all of Shea's problems.
How to go.
We came out of it and I was just like shell-shocked because we had storyboarded.
Have you ever heard of this?
No.
Tell me this is good.
Oh, I love this.
We story-boarded out.
This was one of our exercises.
We each were given a poster board and we wrote out in thumbnail pictures, our lives.
Beautiful.
So it was like moments of our lives.
What a great way to know yourself and your partner.
Oh, my gosh.
When I tell you, it was emotionally exhausting.
because I went through 30 years.
I was 30.
This was three years ago.
I went through 30 years of like trying to think of the things that like impacted my life
and like that were pretty important to who I've become.
So, shame.
There's a lot.
We spent hours just like doodling.
Like it's funny because on our storyboards we both start out and it's like so beautiful
and like detailed.
And by the end it's just like stick figures and we're just like dead.
Yeah.
And nothing else happened.
in the last 10 years because I'm tired and my brain hurts.
What a way to clear the pipes though?
Well, so we did that and the actual like
Realizations you probably learned of yourself.
Well, no. The shocking part was that she then went through and she was like,
I'm going to go through.
I want each of you one at a time to go through your life and explain each of these.
And then I'm going to come back through with my sticky notes and I'm going to,
I'm going to put on the board what I hear you saying.
Whoa.
This is intense.
It was so intense.
Exhausting.
It was like when I tell you, like emotionally.
It's like an exorcism almost.
It was, so she ran out of sticky notes for me.
Morgan's laughing with her.
It's not like an exorcism.
But kind of.
I feel like we went through Shay's and basically they were like, oh, you can turn lemons into lemonade.
That was like the thesis for his life.
And she ran out of sticky notes for me.
You're like, we're going to come fix Shay.
I've got this all figured out.
She literally ended with like chronic trauma.
And I was like, what?
I was like, what?
So, anyway, all that to say, we both spent that week.
And I think the important...
What a moment in your marriage.
I think the important part was that we were opening this up in front of each other.
And so we literally...
And then we had to, like, talk to our younger selves.
This is so beautiful and vulnerable.
In front of each other.
But just to be able to get that vulnerable, not that you're not already vulnerable, but, like, to go all the way into the demons and the dark of it all that we store.
That's so beautiful.
I literally had to let go and, like, talk to my little girl self and tell her, like, and talk to her.
What did you tell her?
It was something really sad.
And it was just, like, it was so sad.
And...
Shea is just seeing this.
You know what I mean?
And, like, he did the same thing.
What was your coping mechanism for your little girl?
How did you cope?
Well, I just...
What did you do to protect her so she didn't have to feel?
Well, it's funny because, like, I went back and because she was like, you need to probably do some solo therapy for like...
Your time.
She's like, you probably need to, like, go do some work on your own.
And we did.
We've both done that.
But it was...
I actually said...
I was like, because I was bullied a lot, like a lot of bullying.
And again, I'm a dormant.
And so I've always been like quiet and reserved or was.
I feel like I've like, sorry, I feel like I've, something about having kids will really make you step into like who you are.
Mom a lion.
Yeah.
You're like, I don't really give a rat patootie what anyone thinks of me because now I'm a mom and there's more important things to laugh than someone's opinion.
So other than God's like, yeah.
As long as God's telling me I'm doing good.
And you and your husband are on the same page?
That's exactly it.
Like I sat the other day and I was like, I feel like I haven't talked to you in a long time, God.
And I just felt him say you're a good mom, and I just started bawling.
Sometimes you just need to, sometimes you just like need to hear it, you know?
But okay, so what did you tell your little girl?
Is it too personal share?
No, I just said the reason that I was bullied a lot was because I was, they called me Miss Goody Tooshoes.
Like, I didn't break the rules.
And, like, I was just, like, a rule follower.
And, um, and I lived, and my mom told me my whole life, you're a good girl.
And, like, she'd always say make good choices.
And I literally told her, I was like, you're a good girl.
And you are good.
You are good job.
And you did a good job.
And you try, you've been trying so hard.
And, like, the thing that came out of it was, um, the therapist actually said,
She was like, do you know what?
She was like, I'm looking at your whole life.
And she was like, and you never followed.
And I was like, like, I'd never thought of that.
But like, as much as I was picked on or bullied or like all this for like being good,
she was like you never followed them.
Like I never, like, you just kind of braced it, braced for it.
Yeah, like, mom told me I was good and I wanted to be good.
and like thank goodness for that foundation
because she and I were both raised to know and love the Lord
and I'm so thankful for that.
But I'd never heard that before in my whole life.
She looked at me and she was like,
you were never a follower.
So proud of you.
And there was something about that.
It was like, oh, all that hard work really did pay off.
And it is the harder road.
It is.
