The Hope Hotline | S03-E40 | 06-06-2025

Hello and welcome to the whole pot line. Thank you for joining us on this wonderful, beautiful Friday. It's hot as crap outside, but at least it's not raining and I will take it. Then we got the sand blowing in from the Sahara. True. From Africa. That's what they say. Hey, listen, I saw something that said if you have dust particles all over your car,

because it's covering us right now, that's because of the rain that we got on Wednesday. Do you know my pool is covered in like dirt on the top of it? Have you guys checked out your pools? I wish I had a pool. Oh, sorry. Sorry about that, Tracy.

Well, they're building a house across the street, so everything's with dust. So I wouldn't notice the difference. Oh yeah,'re building a house across the street. So everything's with dust. So I wouldn't know that's the difference. Oh yeah, you're not gonna notice the difference. Yeah. My pool, like I went out to my pool this morning and I literally saw like particles, like all over the place, like it's covered.

I was like, what the heck is that? Like what is it? Because I didn't really look at it yesterday and they said this happened on Wednesday. So I was like, what the heck is that all over the top of my pool, like just the top of the water. And that's what it must be. Cause it looks like dirt, like, but it's floating dirt, like dust. I don't know.

It's the weirdest thing. Does it look like it's from Africa? No. Well, yeah. You know what? I might need to scrape it because that's the closest I'm going to get to Africa probably my whole entire life. Can we test it? Test my dirt?

Yeah. I mean, it's expensive. Do you really want to do that? Kind of. You're nuts. Like how expensive? I don't know, but I know it ain't cheap. I feel like it might not be from Africa

and I want to get to the bottom of this. Cause I still have drones. You have drones playing over your house still? Still got them. Still? Still got them. Every day. Almost every day.

What's happening in Z? Almost every day. And if I in deep green. Almost every day. And if I don't see them, it's cloudy. That's interesting. We need to figure out what's happening over there. I don't, we don't have drones like that in my backyard. I'm gonna come to your backyard.

I mean, I got a neighbor who's a freak and he does his drones. Only when people are out sitting out by the pool. That's a weirdo. But I feel like that's safe. Yeah, I literally went out one time. He's a freak. Oh my gosh.

I had to go outside because my daughter is laying out and she's like, mom, the drone's out again. What do I do? And I'm like, don't worry about it. I go outside, I get out of my pool cage to make sure the freak can see me. And I literally look at the drone and I go, I kept doing it until he finally left.

Another neighbor, which I will not name is threatened to shoot it out of the sky. If it does not stop. He's a freak. Yeah, I don't like that. But at least you know where it's coming from. Oh yeah, I've literally walked over to the house. Oh my gosh.

I believe it though. Followed me while I was walking. I'm like, okay, you wanna follow me? I'll follow you. I'll follow you right over to your house, you weirdo. Yeah, you weirdo. I might die in the process cause he's a freak, but. Worth it. It'll be worth it. I don't know, you'd put up a fight, so. I would put in the process, cause he's a freak, but- Worth it.

It'll be worth it. I don't know, you'd put up a fight, so. I would put up a fight, but it's a man, so I'm gonna lose. I mean, even though I fight dirty- I was gonna say. No, he's not old. You're part of the gun club now.

Oh my gosh. Yeah, I know, but I don't carry. I mean, I will pick up things and I have been known to do whatever I gotta do, but he's still a guy. Those guys. Yeah, and freaks tend to be like a little bit, they don't fight clean either. True.

Whatevs. Okay. So, I had so much fun last night. It was so good. Oh, I've got to upload that one video. So last night, I don't know how many of you guys, do we have a clip of her? Like, so people know what the crap we're talking about

because I almost told you to do that. I was going to, I have a video from last night that Kristen took too. Just the one Kristen took, but I can find something else. Here, you talk do that. I know. I was going to, I have a video from last night that Kristen took too. Just the one Kristen took, but I can find something else. Here, you talk real quick. Tell them. Okay. So Vanessa, chime in.

Okay, just kidding. Okay, there you go. Okay. And Talia too. Talia is going to have to run around to the other side. But the whole pot line and a few others, we celebrated birthdays because Heather's birthday is in April. Trisha's birthday is in April, little Tal is in June, mine's in May.

Who else was, who else? Mine's in November. No, that's, I don't care about you. Heather? Yeah, she said Heather. Yeah, so there was several of us that like, the springtime is our birthdays. Well, she's my favorite, This woman is my favorite comedian.

I don't know how I found her. Like I found her like two years ago on a fluke, on a whim. How long did you find her, Vanessa? Like right around the same time, because we were talking, I think. We were like- Yeah, I think I found her on Netflix. I did not find her on Netflix.

I found her on Instagram. And I remember saying to you, like this icon was two years ago. It could have been, yeah. I was like, I love this comedian. You're like, well, let me see her. And I showed you and you're like, I love her too. She's the only one that actually makes me laugh.

Like belly laugh. Belly laugh. I laughed so hard that I was telling Vanessa. I almost peed my pants. Oh my gosh. I did not almost pee, but I got great bladder control though. Like pristine bladder control.

Even though I only had two kids. I mean, even though I had two kids, pristine bladder control. That's impressive. Yeah, that's right. Kegels, Kegels, Kegels, Kegels girls. Yes, I need to start. Do them.

It's too late for you. I'm just saying, do them before you have kids. Oh, yeah. Changes everything. It's important. I know that's TMI, but I'm just saying it works. It's important. It's important.

You don't want to rip tear or do anything while you're having a kid. Kegels. Kegels. I would know. Just saying. Ask the experts. Well, I'm not really an expert, but okay.

So with that being said, so I was crying. These, this older couple, I know I'm 58, but they were older than me. So this older couple sit next to us and me and Kristen, who came too, she's like, I'm embarrassed to laugh. She's like, it's gonna sound like farm animals are in at the show.

Because she literally, she's like, I sound like a donkey and then I go straight to a pig with the snorting. So I warned the people next to me, and she does. I warned the people next to me, listen, if you hear, I warned the people next to me, listen if you hear farm animals down the aisle, it's just whatever, I should have warned them about me, because I was, Talia says yeah, because she was sitting right next to me, I was crying so hard, it was me, then Tao, then Vanessa.

And I kept looking at Vanessa, cause Vanessa and I, we were dying. Dying. Dying. It was the best of the best. Her material is so relatable. But you know what? I feel like, here's the thing.

You feel like you're talking to a friend. Yes. Right. It's not like you went to a show. You're like, it is relatable because everything that woman has done or is willing to do, you have done or are willing to do yourself. And that means to anything your mind can think of to the most innocent, to the most perverse.

And she's a great storyteller. Great storyteller. She reallyeller. Great storyteller. Great storyteller. So I am laughing so hard. I felt bad for my neighbors, but I turned so that because I was laughing so hard, I turned so Talia got it the most. Oh my gosh.

I literally sat like this. I'm still used to it though. Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true. So I was like this, and Talia is right here because I was out of control. I was so out of control. I was telling Vanessa that Trish said,

and Trish is in the row below us and like four people down from me. Trish just said, I dreamed about your laugh in my dreams last night. Oh my gosh. And in part of my dream, your teeth fell out. No, I hate those dreams. Okay, but Vanessa told me.

It means something. It means something. Like an old life's tale. Oh really? Does that mean, she said that might mean that I'm getting money. I wanna know if that's true. I want to know if because I was laughing so hard and my teeth fell out in her dream,

if I'm getting money, listen, it's gonna be a good weekend potentially if that is true. Are you looking it up right now? We're looking it up right now. It's quite common to have dreams about your teeth falling out. It wasn't my dream though. Does that matter? I don't know what we're gonna find out together. Okay. And it could depend on the emotional state

of what's happening in your life. I was, it was joy. Okay. My emotional state at that time is pure joy. Okay. Okay. So the first thing, okay, I'll do mine, you do yours. Okay.

Oh my gosh. So some of the common meanings could be a loss of control or powerlessness. Teeth are tools that we use to bite, chew and speak and pour in symbols of power and control. Losing them in a dream may reflect feeling helpless, vulnerable or out of control in real life. Yes or no?

Well, I didn't have, I personally have the dream. Maybe Trish feels like you're out of control. So maybe she might feel like that. I don't personally. I feel, listen, even in my sleep, I'm in control. I control all things at all times. So just so you know, that's not me. That's not it.

Or it can be fear of aging. That's what I have, anxiety about aging. Teeth are associated with attractiveness in youth. If you're anxious about how you look, aging or how others perceive you, that could trigger this type of dream. Okay, if you could have saw me like 45 minutes ago, you know that's not accurate either.

Cause I came to work looking like the cat just drug me in. Oh my gosh. I have my hair on top of my head while I'm putting my makeup on. I'm like, man, you're a sight. I don't care. Like, what are you going to do? And for me, I'm like, why worry about aging?

Right. Right. I mean, the people that are like doing all these fillers and Botox and stuff like that, you're in big trouble. But they don't look good either. They don't look good. And for me, it's that, you're in big trouble. But they don't look good either. They don't look good. And for me, it's like, you look ridiculous. Right. The bigger the lips, the more ridiculous you look.

And if you don't think people know, they know. They know. You know, it's funny, there's a video out on TikTok and I can't look it up cause I'm live on TikTok right now and I forgot. But there's a video that says like, you can either get old and look older, or you can get old and look weird.

That's good. Because you do, you still are older. Okay, okay, okay, okay. There's one exception to the rule. Chris Jenner. Yes, Chris Jenner has done something. She did Voodoo. It's Voodoo.

I don't know, I saw her too. Now my kids, my kids- It's super recent. Like my kids have for their phone, they have me as Kris Jenner. Yes. Which is an insult in some ways and a biggest compliment she could possibly give me as well.

It's both sides. It's both sides. It depends how they see it. I'm just not sure which one they're referring to. Exactly. Yeah, one I think has is Chrissy and the other one is, I don't remember. Yeah, it's not good, but she looks unbelievable.

She's like the only one that I've ever seen where like, she does not look either like the Joker with her mouth. Right, right. She literally looks like she went back in time. And her daughters look horrible and she looks fantastic. Her daughters look ridiculous, she does not. True. So whoever she's going to see,

they needed to have gone to see the same person. Yes, whoever that person is. Whatever, that's all I'm saying. If you're gonna do it, do it that way. So my favorite, like, so we all went and saw Lee Ann Morgan, the comedian last night. I've never been to a comedy show ever. Have you guys ever been to a comedy show?

I have. Like a really good one, like a good name one? Yes. Not like- But I don't remember who it was. Not at the Improv? No, no, no, no, I went to see somebody, I can't remember who it was at the moment was actually- Night at the Improv? No, no, no. No, I went to see somebody, I can't remember who it was at the moment,

but they swore more than I expected them to because they don't swear on like the things that you would watch. Oh, gotcha. But since it's live and it wasn't recorded, you know? So I just, but it was still a little bit. Taken it back slightly? A little bit, but it was still really funny.

Yeah. But I don't remember who it was, it was so long ago. Okay, this is really bad. But I would, not right now, cause he's gone a little, I don't really care for some of his jokes right now, but what's his name? Dave Chappelle.

I actually, I know this is bad. I probably would never, but I actually would love to see Dave Chappelle back in the day, not today right now, because he's crossing some lines. I'm not really caring for the lines he's crossing right now, but normally he is so flippin' funny and his mouth is filthy,

but he's dang funny. Now, this is like, okay, so you saw somebody you don't remember. Vanessa, is this your first time? I have seen a comedian, but it wasn't like a well-known one. I've never seen, I've never been to a comedy show, ever in my life, ever.

This is like, I think that I might be hooked, but I don't- It was good. It was good, but it would have to be like to her level. And I would have to. You set the bar high. She set it high. So Talia, you've never been, right?

Yeah, and Talia's never been either. Most of us, I don't think had been. Teresa had. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Like I forgot that I actually, you leave like laughing and who doesn't love laughing? Everybody's laughing. So it's just like a.

It's a high. It is, it is. It's a good environment. And then we went and ate ice cream. And that's another high. That was so good. That was so good. Taya found this place.

Taya, what's the name of the place that you found us? Let's give them some props. What is it? Main Street Creamery. Main Street Creamery. That's in Sarasota. Down Main Street. So good. Great, great ice cream and great service, man.

They were like. They gave me the bubble guts, but that's a me problem. Oh, well, yeah, that's on you girl. That's a me problem. But you, you know, you're okay because. Listen. Your husband went home. Right, exactly.

So whatever. Okay, so you wanna show the video of her first so people know who the heck we're talking about? Can I show you my ice cream real quick? Oh gosh, yeah. Oh my gosh. Of course you took a picture. I know, yes.

So that on top is a marshmallow and they like toast it, marshmallow meringue, and they like toast it. So it tastes like a toasted marshmallow. Oh my gosh, so good. And the ice cream was like creamy and it was actually really, really good.

I wish people on TikTok could see it right now. Okay. You can't though. I'll show them on my thing. I'll show you guys. If you're on TikTok, I'm gonna show you right now. And then I do have some videos. Well, I have our picture from last night.

Yeah, you might wanna keep this on TikTok right now. So for the, are we sharing right now or not? Are we dual? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, perfect. Yeah. But I don't, can I, how do I switch? Switch it real quick for me.

Patient guys, patient. Flip camera. Okay. Oh shoot, I did it twice back on us. Okay, now we're there. Okay. Yeah, so let me show them my ice cream real quick. That's my ice cream.

How amazing does that look? So good. Okay, and then I have a video. This is the one Vanessa picked. So if it's not funny. Oh, this is a good one Vanessa. I think this one's good. But this was our picture from last night.

That was the whole point. I wish I could have taken, like first of all, for us to get the tickets, it was ridiculous. There was, literally it sold out the night that I bought these tickets and like we couldn't even get hardly any. And then on top of that, the next day they opened up a new

and I could have, I could have had any seat I wanted. I know. But literally there was no seats. It's like you will kind of want to take a big bunch of people with you, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you can't. You can't.

Not like this. Not like that. And the tickets ain't cheap. No, they weren't. No. They were worth every cent. They were worth every dime. It was good.

Every cent. Every laugh, every spit that flew out of my, spittle that flew out of my mouth. Yep, yep. Every little, at Vanessa. Mm-hmm, flew out of my mouth. Yep. Yep. Every little at Vanessa. Yes. So worth it. And now and every earbleed that tell you had to deal with.

What did you say? I think they undervalued it. Oh my gosh. 100 percent. It was really good. Okay. So show the. Get in the photo please.

Look at the towel. Okay hold on a minute. I like big panties. And big panties say to me, freedom. Comfort. And big panties say to me, freedom, comfort. I feel like at this point in my life, I deserve to be comfortable and I deserve to be around fun people, not butthole people.

I went through all these hormonal changes and I had to change my panties, I'll just tell y'all. I used to wear Victoria's Secret and they started cutting me in two who are these really for little children who are these for I switched over to a big panty company and I they've got these gowns that have a cool technology in them and I wear those most of the time but I held on to these two little gowns from Target they're no big deal they're no big deal they're just a cotton little gown and every time I put one of them on my husband's like

You never know what's gonna trigger him. There you go. There it is. Man, so much fun. So good. Get on the microphone. I told Tommy about when she said Chuck Morgan brought the clothes to her in the hospital. I think you would 100% do that. He was laughing. Oh, 100%. Okay, Tom. Tom's terrible. Terrible.

Twice I've had to, one when I had my children, one of them, because I wasn't prepared. It happened so fast, Norma, five weeks early, so I wasn't prepared. It happened so fast, Norma, five weeks early. So I wasn't prepared. And then, then once when we had an emergency that we had to take one of our children to the hospital and I am living there at the hospital for days. And so I tell him, I'm like, I need clothes. And what he brought me, I'm like, I just had a kid.

How am I supposed to fit into that stuff? It is so ridiculous. It's like my size four jeans. Oh my gosh. When I wore a size four. The size four jeans, like, that's not possible, babe. Yeah, that's so sweet that he thought that. So like my girlfriend, I told my girlfriend,

I was like, listen, I need you to go in and I need you to find the clothes that I, my underwear, my whole thing, because Lord knows what he'll bring me to the hospital. It's not good. I had to have my sister do the same thing. Oh my gosh. I mean, some people just don't got it going on.

I just don't know. Forgive them, Father. Hey, listen, for me, I'll be honest with you. In some ways, I really don't care about that stuff. Be hot. Like I just don't know. Forgive them father. Hey listen, for me, I'll be honest with you. In some ways, I really don't care about that stuff. Be hot. Like, I don't care. As long as you're easy on my eyes, I don't care that you can't bring me what I need.

Like, just let me look at you. Yeah, just be cute. I don't care. Be cute. I don't care. That's good enough for me. Oh my gosh. And he's, as far as I'm concerned, in the hot category,

I got it going pretty good, as far as I'm concerned. And really isn't that all that matters is what I think. All that you think is what matters. That's right. That's right. That's right. Okay, before we go to our questions, take it away really quick.

Do you want to do that today Yeah, because this is for all of our people who are like, okay, everything in moderation

and there's balance to everything. But this is scary as crap. This is pretty crazy. This is crazy. Play this role that I don't know where you found it. TikTok, your daughter. Oh, Norma sent it to you? Oh.

Remember, remember? Yes, I do. Remember? Yes, I do. Listen, for all of you people who AI is the antichrist, this is like the wax seal that a king would put on, the signet ring. This is like gonna close the deal for you.

This is it. Oh my gosh for you. This is it. Oh my gosh. Seriously, this is gonna take them right over the edge. This is it. Cause I'm now just teetering. Right, right, right, right. Fair enough. I'm going back and forth until I fall.

Like seriously, this is like out of this world. Go ahead. This is real people. This is weird. This is like NBC, right? This isn't some joke. No, the CBS, CBS morning. Okay, so I just want to make sure you guys understand

because I don't know if it's going to show it. This is like a legitimate, well, we all know media is biased, but I'm just saying this is like, like this isn't some like fly by night source. That's all I'm trying to say. Now scare the crap out of everybody, Tracy. Okay, here we go. This isn't some fly-by-night source. That's all I'm trying to say. Now scare the crap out of everybody, Tracy. Okay, here we go.

AI is learning to escape human control. That's the very scary headline I saw in the Wall Street Journal. It's an essay written by a very worried AI consultant named Jud Rosenblatt, who cites two recent studies to argue that AI is in fact learning to escape human control. First, this is crazy stuff.

Researchers gave OpenAI's 03 model a simple script that would shut off the model when triggered. In 79 of 100 trials, the AI model independently, just on its own, edited the script, so the shutdown command would not work. Nate, Nate, Nate, it gets worse. Even when ordered, allow yourself to shut down, the AI still disobeyed 7% of the time,

and it gets even more frightening than that. Other researchers, listen to this, using Anthropix AI model Claude IV Opus, told the model it would be replaced by another AI system. It then fed fictitious emails into the system suggesting one of the engineers was having an affair. Got it? In 84% of the tests, the AI model drew on the emails

to blackmail the engineer to not shut down the AI model. What? Wow, wow. Okay, so I'm quoting now from Judd. In other cases, the AI model. What? Wow. Wow. Okay, so I'm quoting now from Judd. In other cases, the AI model attempted to copy itself onto external servers. We're in Mission Impossible land here. Wrote self-replicating malware and left messages for future versions of itself about the need to evade human control.

The entity. The entity is real. Yes, yes. And that's why so many people, and when I say people, me, are worried about AI. I'm worried. That is scary stuff. Told ya, told ya.

Wild. Yeah. Yeah. Crazy. That's freaking nuts. So yeah. Talia just says, I'm still gonna use chat GPT. I'm using it right now.

Like, okay, who's not? I know. What we just gotta do is teach it not to know how to rewrite things. That's, oh yeah, teach it to be good. Chat GPT. Or know the final plug. Jesus is Lord.

There you go. Jesus is Lord. We just need the pull cord. Like what's the cord that like, that's it. Your life is over. When I saw this, I said to Tracy, I said this, if anybody's like in my age bracket, a little younger, little younger, not by much,

or older than me. You'll remember the movie War Games with Matthew Broderick and Ali Sheehy. And that was where they, he was like, he would, he was a high school student, he would break into like the school's computer system. So he was like a computer geek and he would change his grades, but he decided he wanted to go and play a game. And so he broke into a system. There

you go. Put that up there. He broke into a system. It's really great, really great. I mean, it's all this. It's all this dirt. So like if you're looking for it to be like with the modern, like technology of how things look, no, it's not going to happen. It's not HD or nothing. But great movie, clean as crap. But so what they did is they thought they were playing a game, like a video game, when in all reality he broke into the United States government's missile systems.

And he's playing war with countries. And he almost, where it's, I won't say the ending, but it gets to a place where we're about to like hit the switch to have a nuclear war. So like that reminds me, cause the game wouldn't stop playing. He tried to get the machine, the computer system, to stop playing the game. And it was like, it was like, no, I'm not stopping.

My gosh. So the United States government's computer system was acting like AI and was basically telling humans what it was and wasn't going to do. No matter how hard this humans were trying to get, like the top scientists were trying to get it to stop. It's a great movie, but it's like AI, like out of control. Yeah, artificial intelligence, it'll do it.

That's wild though, that it's like to say, no, not gonna follow your instructions. And so much when you shut me down, I'm gonna prepare the new AI system to know what you're doing and for them to not do it either. Right. That's crazy. Not good.

It's not good. Not good. At all. All right, first question. Unless anybody wants to say anything like that. Vanessa's silent over there, so I think she's in complete shock. This is the first time I see this.

I'm downloading it. She's a little nervous. Are you scared? I'm scared on it. No, I'm not scared. She ain't scared of nothing. Nah. Nah.

I got the armor of the Lord on me. That's true, that's true. Outside of that, she doesn't get scared anyway. True. We don't want to eliminate God from the equation, but. But also she's from Brooklyn. She's from Brooklyn and she's married to Jeff. So hello.

In a second I'll cut you. Yeah, yeah. She'll shank you just as soon as you look, just as soon as look at you. I never know. You never know. All right, let's do the first one. The first question.

This is good. People are gonna be able to relate to this question very easily. It says, I messed up big. Who hasn't? Yeah. I won't, well, I don't know if we've all messed up like this person, because I don't know what they did,

because they won't tell us, but I messed up big. I won't go into detail, but let's just say I crossed lines. I swore I wouldn't. Now I feel ashamed, distant from God, and like I'm not worthy to be in church. How do I come back from this? Okay, like my imagination's running wild. I pretty much know what you did.

If I think what, I mean, do you think? Unless you stole something. Yeah, could. unless she stole something? Yeah, could maybe you're something maybe you signed blank checks. Do you think they killed somebody? Well, that could be it too. I never thought about that one. What if they like lied? And it was like it covered up something even worse What did you think it was sex? Yeah, you thought it was? Sex. Yeah, me too. Yeah, you thought it was sex too? Yeah, 100%. Yeah. Not good. Whatever it was. Yeah, I didn't think about that. I was thinking maybe

they like stole something or I've been around some conversations lately about people like if they had to murder somebody like what they would do. And now I like, now I question everybody. I think that one of them was me. It was. I wasn't gonna name names. Yeah. But now I'm like, man, like everybody's capable.

Yeah. You back me into a corner. I don't know what I'll do. It's true. Oh yeah. I've seen a dangerous side of her. Well, yeah. I mean, I used to think that if Vanessa went into prison, she'd be somebody's you know what, but.

It depends. But it just depends. I mean, yeah, you might because listen, she's all about. Until I'm not. Right. Right. Yeah, I pretty much am like, not gonna happen. I'll die first. My survival skills are pretty much my terms. Right. If they go beyond my terms, like just

just put me out of my misery because I'm not gonna survive like that. Now Vanessa, she has lines she'll draw, But they're pretty lengthy lines. What? She counts the cost. Yeah, but even your cost are places that I won't go. Right. You're like, it might work out, it might not. And it's like, all right.

This is too far. This is where it ends. How far is too far for me? It's pretty short leash. Vanessa's too far is like, give me a mile. I don't know yet. I don't know where the line is. I'll know when I get there.

That's true. Might happen. Yeah, you never know. Never know. You never know. You never know who backs you into a corner. Listen. It's true.

Yeah. So for me, like, listen, I think everybody has like, I mean, I might be speaking for you guys, but I mean, I think everybody can honestly say they've crossed lines that they never thought that they would and then they feel shame about it. And I'm not talking about sexual, I'm talking in general, like in so much, like Tracy, what you said is true

about lying or something like that. Like, I never intend to lie, but I can say, like, I have lied and I'm like, what are you thinking? You know better than this. And there is shame in that. Yeah. Oh yeah. Because you're like, now how do I come back from this?

Right, right, yeah. Because I'm better than that. Like, truth is always better, right. Yeah. Because I'm better than that. Like, truth is always better. But, yeah, but like Vanessa said, back me into a corner. Right. You know, you never know what one will do. So, so just know, like everybody's been where you are and it's super easy to come back from it. It really is. Romans 3 23 is great. Write it down and don't use as an excuse to do things that you shouldn't do, but use it as a place to bring you back to front to redemption, which is, for

everyone has sinned we all fall short of God's glorious standard. This is the New Living Translation. So what I would do is repent, ask God to forgive you. Don't do it anymore. Move on. Don't look back because as far as the East is to the West is as far as your transgressions. So as far as God's concerned, once you repent, you ask for forgiveness, it's a done deal.

He doesn't remember it. And every time you talk about it, he's like, I don't even know what you're talking about. So you literally have to think of it like that. You have to, when you bring it back up to God and say, God, I feel so ashamed, I'm so unworthy, he's gonna sit there and go, you're so ashamed and you're so unworthy about what?

Because he doesn't remember it anymore. And you literally have to be that dogmatic because if you do not and we all know this Satan will come calling and he will use that against you to make you distracted and unusable Yep, and we all know because we've either been there or we know people Correct ladies. Yes So don't let it trip you up. Don't do it. You will regret it.

There's nothing good that comes from any of that. Like holding on to the past or holding on to regret, there is absolutely nothing good that comes from living in that mindset. You guys wanna add anything to that? No, it keeps you stuck too. It does. You know, like God has a plan and a purpose for your life. Do you guys wanna add anything to that? No, it keeps you stuck too. It does.

God has a plan and a purpose for your life. And if you get stuck in shame, and that's a weapon that is formed against us by the enemy. And if we just like get like in our heads and it's like, we literally get stuck in a moment and we don't fulfill what God wants us to do. And then we get to heaven and he's like, man, I had all this pain for you, what a waste. Yeah, I think that's such a great point, Vanessa,

because when you do go to heaven, I think God will show us like all the, like our steps are ordered, right? So all the things and the best intentions that God had for us, you know? And then we're gonna realize like how many times God had to course correct us, bring us back on the path and all this wasted time.

Exactly. Yeah. And listen, hang out in the Old Testament, hang out with David. He screwed up a lot. He did. A lot. Yeah. But. He did a lot. Yeah, but so did Abraham though. Yes, the majority of the people. I mean, I mean,

denied Jesus, walked with Jesus, denied Jesus three times. No, talk about shame. Yeah, yeah, and in the, I believe it's the last one that he did, Jesus, if you look at the book of Luke, when Peter denies him three times, Jesus literally, he's in the same vicinity of Jesus. Jesus hears him, he looks at Jesus and Jesus looks at him as he's denying him. How painful is that? Very. denying him. How painful is that to be looking at the man who's being beaten to death as you deny him and he's doing it so he doesn't deny you. And then Peter goes and

asks for forgiveness, repents, and then Jesus says after that, you are the rock that I'm going to build my church on. Yes. And then, you know, if you think about it too, which a lot of times people don't correlate this, is how many times did Jesus ask him, do you love me? Yeah. Oh, was it three times? The same number of times that he denied him. Yeah. Shut up.

Mm-hmm. Yep. You're right. Yep. So what he was doing is he was, in my opinion, washing it. What I mean by washing it is, you know how like, say you spend $10 or you lose $10 and then you find $10 in your pocket, it's a wash. Have you really lost it? Right, right, right.

No, it's a wash. And then for me, I feel like that's what the Lord was doing it. It's kind of like taking it away. Right. Right. No, it's a wash. And then for me, I feel like that's what the Lord was doing. It's kind of like taking it away. Yeah. It's good. And making the last thing that he'll remember is him announcing or proclaiming, proclaiming is a better word, or declaring his love for him versus the denial.

That's so good. Isn't that great? It's such a beautiful thing. So don't live versus the denial. Mm-hmm. Oh, that's so good. Isn't that great? It's such a beautiful thing. So, don't live in the past. Focus on the future because great days are ahead, and Satan would love nothing to do than to make sure you don't accomplish everything God has for you. But like Peter,

Peter, I mean, if you also look, this is so astounding. And the order in which people were, how do I say this? In biblical times, if somebody was announcing a group of people, the order in which they were announced was by their importance. And if you look at Peter, when the Lord said who his disciples were gonna be, Peter was the first one. Not John, not John the beloved, which is his dearest friend.

It was Peter. Isn't that amazing? Yeah, that's really cool. So things like, even like you can be so important, screw up so bad, and then go back to being super important. Cause you were, the importance never changed. It's just you allowed your mind to think things

were different and they're not. They're just not. God is just. He's so good. Even with all of David's failures, God still describes him as a man after his own heart. Right. Yeah.

Because he understood what true repentance was. And he humbled himself. And a lot of times we have so much pride that we don't, our pride is so much bigger than truth. Yeah. To ourselves. Right. We don't even want to tell ourselves the

truth about ourselves. And that's why social media is so bad because social media is constantly trying to propagate or to make people think that you are one way when in all actuality. From your relationship with the Lord to your relationship with your spouse, even your family. When you put out these little pretty pictures of you and your family or your spouse, but inside, but in the inner walls of that home, there's constant chaos and turmoil, resentment, bitterness, and anger. Are you really that pretty picture? Don't take the picture. Nobody's buying what you're selling, and if they do, it's

for a short period of time until they get to know you. That's the truth. So you know pride is a terrible thing. It will destroy. Anybody else got anything else you want to say? No that was good. I agree with that all. I really do. Get up, dust yourself off. A righteous man falls seven times and he gets back up again. dust yourself off. Yep. A righteous man falls seven times, and he gets back up again.

Amen. Live your best life. Let's go. There's too much work to do. Come on. There is. Live your best life, absolutely. There is so much work to do.

And people are sitting on the sidelines not doing a daggum thing. Focused on themselves. What people- We got a donation. Thank you, Will. Aw, thanks, Will. Aw, thanks, Will.

Will's not at work. Rumble rant. Is that Will? Five bucks. Wilbert, yeah. Yeah, Will. He's feeling quite generous. He is.

Because he's not working. He said, love you, Hope. Love you too, buddy. He's off. Summer break. Summer break. He's in a happy place. He's living his best life.

He's living, yeah, he's in a happy place right now. I love it. Appreciate that. Love that for him. Okay, let's do sponsors really quick and then we'll move on to the next question.

put the car in the courthouse, took it apart and put it back together. That's cause you're just not old enough. Like I'm not Andy Griffith. Like I could probably say every single word to every single Andy Griffith. like I could probably say every single word to every single Andy Griffith. I believe it. I'm not ashamed to say that.

I love Andy Griffith. I know you do. Can't really watch it anymore since I got rid of cable, not cable, yeah, well cable and Direct TV. Yep. I mean, can you watch it on Hulu or can you watch it on Netflix? I don't think so.

I don't know. I'll ask chat. Ask chat GPT for me because I just got rid of all of that stuff like two months ago, tops. I don't watch that much TV. Yeah, I know. So, but I've not looked for that. Do you still have Amazon Prime?

I do have Amazon Prime. I have a movie. Oh have a movie for Tom. It's called The Perfect Pairing. I saw it the other day and I squealed five times. I said I'm not telling him. Oh my gosh, Talia said she'll tell him. I'm just saying, that's a conversation for you and him. Oh my gosh. Not for me and him. I'm not helping that at all. I'll have to listen to it, watch it or see it. Either way, I don't want any parts of that mess. I got it.

So, Andy Griffith? Yeah, Pluto TV offers entire series for free with ads. It's a great option for casual viewing. Peacock, Premium, Paramount, Plex, and Fubu TV. Amazon Prime Video, you can buy individual episodes or the full season. Apple TV, the complete series, is available for purchase. Might have to purchase at one time.

I might do that. I don't have Apple TV. iTunes? But I do have iTunes. Okay. But is that going to get on my TV? Because I don't want to watch it on my computer. I want to watch it on my TV. I think you can cast it. Like from your phone.

Oh, I don't want to be bothered with all of that. Oh my gosh. I don't. It's so easy. I can show you. I've done it hundreds of times back in the day. It's just such a pain in the butt. I know you don't think it is. No, I don't. But I do.

I don't want to. Okay, or you can just buy it. And you can, what's it called? Invest in Andy Gervith. I might have to invest. I think it's a good idea. I don't know how I can live without him. Okay.

I have that song now in my head. Go ahead. How can I live without you? That's not the song I thought you were going to sing. What did you think I was going to sing? An Andy Griffith song. I don't know. I thought the theme song or something was going to come out. There's no song.

It's a whistle, right? How did I know that? I don't know how to whistle. I've never seen an episode. Are you kidding me? I don't think I have either. No, never, ever. Okay, you're not American. Either one of you. I've seen seen an episode. Are you kidding me? I don't think I have either. I know, I've never, ever. Okay, you're not American, either one of you.

I've seen In Living Color. Oh my gosh. That's the TV I grew up on. Okay, this is a sad state of affairs. Oh my gosh. That's like an American classic TV show. Is it? That's like not seeing It's a Wonderful Life.

Please tell me you have seen. No way. I have. I have. I have. Vanessa. Wow. My mother is texting me. Is she upset with us? Well, she knows better. She just wants to, she misses you. No, she's telling me it's on YouTube. Oh my God. Mother. I did wonder that if it was on YouTube, but she knows more than chat GPT. That's so funny. So, good job, mom. Thanks, mom. Yeah.

All right, let's move on to the next question. I'm single in my late 30s. This reminds me of me talking about this chick the other day. I know. Golly, I'm single in my late 30s and still waiting on God for a spouse. Just don't tell me you're waiting and you're waiting for the person to knock on your door.

Oh my gosh, she might be. Oh my gosh, I don't know if this is a girl or a guy. Please, Lord. Yeah. I think it might be a girl. I think so too. I've prayed, dated and tried to trust God's timing, but it's starting to feel

like he forgot about me. As if. I love Jesus, but I also don't want to be alone forever. So take things into your own hands and see how that works out. Right. Oh my gosh! How do I keep hope alive without slipping into bitterness? People are gonna be bitter because they don't meet a person. How realistic is this? Probably very realistic. Probably, yep. Okay, okay.

I'm about to be mean here. Okay, I'm gonna take us off, go ahead. Oh my gosh, like, I don't know how to be nice about this. Don't, just do it, it's okay. Like, what the crap? Like that might be the reason you don't have somebody. Cause you, God knows you can't handle it.

If you're gonna be bitter because you haven't met somebody yet and you're gonna be bitter because you haven't met somebody yet and you're in your 30s, maybe you need to evaluate your walk with God. Because if you are gonna be like this with God because you don't get what you want when you think you need it, how will you be with your spouse?

Right. True that. My gosh. Right. That's a word. Yeah. Your perspective is really way off and super wrong. Like if you sat there and said,

like it sounds like you're about to take matters into your own hands. It really does. Right. I was being dead serious when I was saying, looking over at Vanessa and saying that. Good luck with that. Good luck.

Cause God will pick your best. He knows you better than you know yourself. And he knows the man that's perfect for you or the woman that's perfect for you. Because I don't know what sex you are. So I'm not trying to sell homosexuality, but I'm just saying I don't know what sex you are. So opposite sex of whatever you are. And for you to think like you're gonna take matters potentially into your own hand and you're bitter because it hasn't happened for you, you're crazy. I was 28, almost 29 when I got married.

And I dated for three years, but in that, like that was, I would be lying if I said that that three years was hunky dory. It was not. We were broken up three times. Heartache, like, you know, your heart breaks. I was the one getting broken up with for crying out loud. And in that process, like, I almost, not that I wish,

but through that process, it's like, you're kind of like, I'll just wait for the one year that we can date for us to be able to get engaged and then get married shortly thereafter. Because sometimes people aren't ready and, or they're not listening, which was Tom's case, because Tom will tell you, like, because his parents had gotten divorced,

he probably shouldn't have started dating and trying to get in a serious relationship because it made him very unstable. Maybe that's what you're dealing with here. Maybe you're dealing with somebody who's not ready for you yet. And it doesn't sound like you're too ready for whoever he has for you either.

So your focus is completely wrong. It is completely off. If you focused on the Lord, then you'd be doing His work and time would fly by like that. Right. Okay, I'll let the girls add their two cents because then I'm going to add scripture. That's literally scripture right there. Like, seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

Yeah. And all these things will be added. And all these things will be added. And it's literally, it's simple, but not easy. True. No. Yeah. It's not, but here's the thing, Psalm 37 23, and this Psalm is great because I'm gonna close out with the Psalm in the same exact chapter.

It says something else, but Psalm 37 23 says, the Lord directs the steps of the Godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Okay, your life matters and he cares about every detail. The problem is, is he's not moving as fast as you think he should be moving. And my thing to you would be get your butt out of the driver's seat, sit your butt in the passengers

and don't backseat drive. Cause that's the problem here. You're trying to control your life or you're trying to control the very thing that you desire the most when you might not be ready. Or God has, he has something else that he wants you to do before you meet this person. Because once you meet this person,

this thing won't be able to be done. Correct. Preach. Preach. Ladies, got anything to say? I learned from other people's mistakes. So I've seen people take things into their own hands and they usually always regret it. And then I've watched people wait on the Lord

and then I see the fruit of their life. And I just, for some reason, I don't like being tortured. That's not fun for me. So to not have peace and to be in situations that are super toxic, it's too foreign to me, so I just usually repel it fast. So I watch people literally put God first, and then there's favor that follows them all the time. So for me, putting things into your own hand,

I don't get that. I'm like, it never works. Because we don't really know, like you were just saying, you don't know the end results. So if God's protecting you from something, but you so badly want it, but it's not working for you, like, do you even trust God? Because if you did, you'd realize

there's probably a reason why it's not opening yet. It's so true, but people want what they want. And I have seen it so many times. People want what they want. And then after they get it, they get bitter towards God. I know. Because their life is miserable. I'm like, you're bitter or you're bothered before.

Now you got what you want and now you're bothered before. Now you got what you want and now you're bitter and bothered. Like you can't make anybody happy sometimes. Isn't that true in life though? Like. It's usually an idle thing. Like they idolized it so much that like once I get that, then life's gonna look better.

But you went with it and you're still miserable or you still have pride, or you're still angry, or whatever your issues are. And you bring that into that same situation. And they romanticize. Exactly. They romanticize things. And the thing is, is for me, it's like you romanticized it,

but the person that you put in the romance doesn't fit the description of anything that you want or would be romantic towards. Right. But you want a square peg to fit in a round hole and somehow be that romantic relationship. I don't get it. It's unrealistic expectations. Yeah. Right. And so I've heard it said that expectations when we do that, you are setting yourself up. It's premeditated resentment.

Oh, that's good. So good. Yeah. That's really good. Interesting. Yep. You set yourself up for resentment in the future. Most people don't even know they're doing it because they're so obsessed with whatever it is. Right. They're obsessed with the idea of it. They're on a mission. Will said when he was single, this is Will Gilbert, and lonely, he would write a letter to his future spouse

after he did his devotionals, and then he gave it to Allie on their honeymoon. That's so sweet. Well, who would have thought that Will is a rom-com guy? I bet he would like that movie, what is it? Oh dear Lord. The Perfect Barring, check that out. Check it out, Will. You and Allie can watch it. Oh my gosh. That's so sweet. That is really sweet. My skin's crawling. Oh my gosh. Well, I mean that is true. I mean, there have been- He was productive

with his time. Right. Yeah. Right. Listen, I wanted to meet somebody too, but I was like, I'm going to focus on me. And then when God is ready, He'll bring somebody across my path. But I also spent time in prayer and I've told this story, I don't even know how many times, lots. But I remember going down, I would go down to the beach, I do Bible, my, you know, my Bible time. And I remember praying, sitting there and praying and watching the sunset and everything by myself. And I was praying to the Lord and I remember while

I was praying, I just began to be quiet. And I felt like the Lord starting to speak to me. And in that time of him talking to me, he literally, because he knew my heart was that I wanted to have a companion, but at the same time I was very scared to have one because I had had a previously really bad relationship and I was like very scared to get involved with somebody. And I remember the Lord, because you have to work through some of your baggage people, you got to work through it until you can be ready for somebody else. I remember the Lord, because you have to work through some of your baggage people. You gotta work through it until you can be ready for somebody else. I remember the Lord telling me, He's like, listen,

enjoy this time of just me and you. Because it will not be like this forever. So He was preparing my heart to know, listen, you're gonna find somebody. You're gonna have somebody. So that made me be like, okay then I gotta work on me. Okay, I'll continue to work on me. Okay, so now I know there is somebody in my future, but he said for right now it's me and you, but at some point there'll be somebody else. And I need you to be ready that while I'm number one,

when this person comes into your life, I stay number one. Cause we're gonna have to share each other. And I still like, you do, once you meet that person, you're gonna be sharing the Lord and your time and your priorities have to be in place so that he stays number one and that person stays number two and if you can't do it now while you're single which doesn't sound like you can I'm gonna be perfectly honest with you

if you feel like being bitter towards God because you haven't he hasn't brought the person or whatever then you're not ready. And so for me, until you know that you know he'll be number one and everybody else will follow suit, you don't need somebody. Because the odds are everybody's gonna meet somebody and they're gonna end up getting married. That's the odds. It's very rare that it's not like that. So take a chill pill. But I will say Psalm 34, 4 says, take delight in the Lord. It's very rare that it's not like that. So take a chill pill. But I will say Psalm 34 says, take delight in the Lord. So do the first part, which I said. Now the second scripture, take delight in the Lord, he will give you your heart's desire, which is basically

what Vanessa said. And I put in here, I'm going to tell you what me and my girlfriend in the eighties, I had one of my best friends in the 80s, we used to say this to each other all the time. So this is an 80s phrase, chill out. Yeah. In the meantime, chill out. It'll happen. And when it does, you'll be ready.

But don't force a square peg into a round hole. You will be miserable. And so will the other person. True. Why not be the best version of yourself, you know, going into a marriage. Work on you, work on your relationship with the Lord. Be so content in your relationship with the Lord

that when that person does walk in, that you kind of almost miss him and the Lord has to literally like highlight him to you. Like, listen, buddy. Or you could be like me. When he does, you're like, that's it. Hold up. Wait a minute. Oh my gosh. We got to go shopping. We got to go to the minute. Oh my gosh. We gotta go shopping, we gotta go to the barber. Oh my gosh. Fake overtime. We need some help.

And drop some pounds while you're at it. Oh my gosh, poor Pastor Tom. All right, I didn't know he was the one, but I was like, oh, he'd be a good friend. He's nice. He likes me, I know he likes me, but he'd be a good friend. He's nice. He likes me. I know he likes me, but he'd be a good friend. Oh my gosh.

That's rough. So you might not even know the person that that person might be right under your nose. Right. He hasn't been highlighted for you because he ain't what you think. I mean, he ain't all that in a bag of chips, but with a little help. Yeah. he can be, or she can be.

That's true. So maybe, the best relationships are when you're best of friends. I totally agree. So maybe your best relationship is your friend and you need to fix them up a little bit. Right. Doctor them up. Right. Put some nice cologne on, slap some nice cologne or perfume on them. You know, everybody looks a lot better when they

smell good. True. I agree. Oh my gosh. Smelling is important. Smelling is very important. Dental hygiene is very important. Yeah, a good haircut. A good haircut. And like facial, like not being sloppy. Yep, I agree. Maybe you need to look at yourself. Maybe you need to take... That was my thought, but I wasn't going to say anything. I mean...

Maybe there's reasons. Maybe you need to take a little gander at yourself in the mirror. It probably doesn't hurt. Never hurts. Never hurts.'t hurt. Never hurts. Never does. Never hurts. Be the best version of yourself. That might hurt. Whatever.

Okay, that's it. I'm not going to do any other questions because we are out of time. And we got plenty of them. We do. So we will see you on Sunday if you're in the area. Or tune in on Sunday for our live stream. Will actually oversees our media department in the live stream area. He's doing a good job.

Let's see. What else? I don't know. Have a good weekend. It's not supposed to rain. So we're all in it. We're in it to win it. See you on Sunday. Be back here on Wednesday. That's all we gotta say.

Bye.
