Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. We've been doing our show
for a while now, Yeah, and we have a lot
of people listening to us, and I think there's certain
moments for each person in this room that really stand
out as our most famous thing that we've done on
the show. Oh, do I have one that's not voting?
Well for you broke for like thirty years now, you
(00:26):
can't think of one big moment, you know, it.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
All kind of blends together after a while.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Oh, well, Like one that really stood out for me
that I remember was when I did a parody song
about Ikea, and Ikea headquarters in Sweden actually made all
of their employees learn the song and sing it at
a big company event. Yeah, did you not see that video?
It was crazy all these Swedish people sing in this
American song.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, no, wonder I don't remember our big moments. I
missed that video.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Now, every time I go into ike all the workers
give me side. I like, that's the guy that beat us.
But apparently one of our listeners, Beth has a semi
famous boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Oh, he's even on this show. We're all about semi famous.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I don't think so, but she is having some issues
with their new fame.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
How's it going, It's going okay, Okay, I mean I'm
curious to this guy is because sometimes fame and infamy
can be mixed up. Like he's yeah, he's not famous
for like a mugshot or anything.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Right, No, it's not a mugshot.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
But yeah, my boyfriend Josh.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Went viral like six months ago. Oh yeah, so basically
it's got like five million views, Like this one video
went crazy and it's him throwing up yogurt in the
air and then catching it back in his mouth.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Oh, that got five million views.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Date this guy before that happened or after.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
No, we were before he was viral.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
But okay, so you're not just in it for the fame.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Clearly, you're like Grandma, wait till you see my boyfriend.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
It's funny because I'm like cringing, But then I'm also like, god,
I bet he makes so much more money than I do.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Now, I mean, it is kind of it's skills to
be able to catch all that yogurt mouth, I guess.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Okay, just going viral in general, no matter what it's about,
it always leads to more opportunities.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
You blow your page up.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Now you Yeah that ChIL Bonnie wants to endorse you?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Is that what's happening? Is he really famous?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Now?
Speaker 7 (02:32):
Well?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
I mean the initial video was wild, and then he
did a follow up one that got like, I don't know,
one hundred thousand views, and he's just I think like
he's more invested in it than like it's actually gonna
be a thing.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Okay, So he's trying to catch that fame yeah, right,
the wave.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Yeah. It's like it was like about a week after
the videos came out, he started referring to himself in
the third person. Oh, I'm Daddy Girt.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Daddy Girt.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
He's got to be he's joking, right, He's not being serious.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
So I mean initially I'm like, okay, he's just like
playing it up. But this is like he's trying to
make himself this brand Daddy Gert, Daddy Gert. Yeah, and
he's like constantly using ridiculous phrases like go girt or
go home. And I pointed out that.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Though, but go Gert is a thing, you know.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
I told him about that, but he got real flustered
by it. And it's just at that point. I just
really understood that he's taking this so seriously.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Okay, yeah, so are you calling for relationship advice?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Because I have some thoughts are like just break out
with it.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
What made you reach out to us for help?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:49):
So the video caught like a lot of views in Austria,
and so the big thing now is he wants to
go to Austria and do a live appearance and bring merch.
So basically the big problem is he wants to take
fifteen thousand dollars of our life savings and just like
go for this empire he's trying to build.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
He wants to take fifteen grand of your guys's joint
money to do it.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yes, Oh you don't believe in his Girt empire. You're
not on board the Girt train.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
No, I mean I just I really need to convince
him like to not do that. And it's just I'm
in a hard spot because like I don't want it
to turn into a huge fight. It's definitely a bad idea.
But you know, I've just been listening to him and
he's like telling me all of these plans and it's
just like making me very worried.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Have you voiced any of your concern to Daddy Girt.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I mean, I just I call my best friend and
I've been to her, but with him, I haven't gone there.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Because I just know it's not going to end well.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Well, he's thinking, oh yeah, well fifteen grand up front,
and then once I go there, we could make thirty
brand of all the appearances. But if he doesn't, if
it's not a hit, then you're gonna be out fifteen grand. Yeah,
risk is what I'm trying.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
To I mean, has anyone from Ostrich contacted him, like
any agents or I mean it's serious like brands or
something like, because maybe he's right, maybe there's something over
there for him.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I mean he basically just tells me that he's contacted
a bunch of different people and he's working on some things.
But I just I don't even know what that means.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, it could be anything. Sounds like you're about to
be in a relationship with a famous yogurt man. Yeah someday.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Well it worked out for John Stamos.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
What did he do?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
He was the yogurt mascot for a while, or like
the Chobani dude.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Yeah, you think yogurt marketing hits very.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I mean he was already famous, so there was that.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
But but she doesn't want that. Beth doesn't want Daddy
Gert to I think realize fame.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
More than anything. She doesn't want Daddy Girt to take
fifteen g from her bank.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
Account lose it.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, we're going to talk about this a little bit
off the air. We'll come back, give you a little
bit of advice, and we'll let you call your boyfriend
Daddy Gert and try and convince him to not seize
his fifteen minutes of fame and just move on, go
back to his normal, boring life.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
No, boy, Yeah, I just think that's going to be
for the best.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Who would have thought yogur would have made anyone's life
more exciting?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna do it with you. Awkward
Tuesday phone call. Next, it's awkward.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. Alexis, I want to ask you, theoretically,
if you're dating a great guy. He's fun, he has
a good job.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
This already's unrealist.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
He buys you all the gifts that you could possibly want,
and then one time he makes a video of himself
tossing yogurt in the air and catching it in his
off and gos viral for it. Could you still support
him and be with him after that? Or is that
the ultimate ditch? You know, it's worse than that.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Might be making his own T shirts. That's such an Oh,
you don't like them making up a T shirt? Okay,
the video like he.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Was trying to go viral with it. It just happened accidentally,
and he's leaning in like I've decided that I'm pro girt,
which also should probably go on one of his T
shirts or service. I I'm pro girt, But it's like
a probiotic yogurt. That's not what Beth wants. No wants
her boyfriend Daddy Girt to have his Girt dreams die
(07:29):
right here and now. And Brooke, do you have some
advice for what she should do?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
You know this is hard for you because you haven't
actually expressed your real feelings about this at all. Yeah,
because it was fine before when it was his money.
Now it's your money that he's also trying to invest
in this, and that's when you need to say, listen,
I've been saving your feelings, but we've crossed the line
where I need to tell you how I really feel, dude,
(07:56):
it's her money.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It's fifteen grand.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Are you comfortable with that? Beth being honest with your boyfriend?
Speaker 4 (08:02):
You know, I feel like we're at the crossroads where
it's I don't do it now, like I'm gonna get
sucked into this yogurt thing for good.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah, you're going to be part of the Girt empire
and you don't want to be ose.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What do you think Beth should do?
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Just tell him this, Do you really want to go
to a place where there's openly rude people and dog
poop everywhere? Okay, bad facts about Austria and of many things.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I've heard, Austria is one of the most beautiful countries
in the world.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
No, Beth, can you forward him a link to bad
Austrian facts dot com.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I'm gonna collect my list of negatives along with the
whole spitting up yogurt.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Okay, exactly, all right, we have some advice there. I'm
not going to call it great advice well, but it's
hopefully helpful. We're gonna dial Daddy Girt right now, your
boyfriend and let you have your conversation with him. You ready, Yeah, but.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Do you mind just calling him Josh?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Please.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Okay, fine, Beth, this is your awkward Tuesday phone call.
So I'll just call him just Josh, call boring old
Josh and let you make your awkward call. Here we go.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
You got good. Who's this? Hey?
Speaker 3 (09:23):
It's me.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
Hey big so.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Hey, Uh nothing. I just wanted to know if you
had a few minutes to chat.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Yeah, what's going on? We got a video to do.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
But let's oh, okay, another yogurt video.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Yeah, you know, making that move?
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Lah.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Yeah, I'm glad that you brought that up. Those videos
make money.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Now, I mean it's investment, so yeah, eventually, eventually, don't worry.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Baby.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Wow, I just before we get into this empire, I
just kind of wanted to talk about the fifteen thousand dollars.
I'm just I'm not sure I'm quite comfortable spending that
kind of money.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Yeah, but Babe, we've talked about this. This is how
it works. You got to spend money to make money. Baby.
I'm not just an artist. I'm also an entrepreneur. So
if you want to get to girt Topia, you got
to pay the toll. You feel me?
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Okay, okay, but that's the problem. I don't I don't
want to go there. No one wants to go to
girt TOPIAKA.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Just hear me out. I wouldn't have to do my
job anymore. Okay, you could quit your job. You can
manage me. We'd have a lifetime supply of yogurt in
the fridge from the highest bidder. There are so.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
Many like these are all really fun dreams to have,
but like, let's just be realistic for a minute here.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Okay, hold on, I think I am being realistic because
this can be huge, and I'm I know what I'm
ga want.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I want to support you do. I want you to
follow your dreams. But it's just so much money and
I just don't make it's a good time.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Okay, look it's too late. So I already bought the
plane tickets to Vienna. And no, no you didn't. Yeah
you look two months from now, babe.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
No, no, no, no, you did not spend our money without
asking me.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
No, I didn't use our money. I asked your parents
if they'd invest and your dad wrote me a check
for five grandy You what, who's this? What is going on?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Hey man on the radio right now with Brooke and
Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Excellent opportunity. To promote your business.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Well that's why we're in Oh my god.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What is going on right now?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Well this is called an awkward Tuesday phone call. And
Beth reached out to us because she wasn't sure how
to have this conversation with you about not spending fifteen
thousand dollars on the trip to Austria.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
Because are you serious right now?
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Of course I'm serious. It's a lot of money to
throw into Daddy girk kills enough.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
No, no, no, no, Are you serious that you just got
a hell of promotion right now?
Speaker 6 (12:22):
He's see this.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I told you, Beth, you got to be straight with
Daddy Girt.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I told you, bet you can manage this, and this
is crazy. Thank you for this.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
By the way, Beth, you're better at managing his Girt
life than you even realized you were.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
I didn't mean for this to be a positive thing
like this was supposed to be a wake up call
for you.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
I didn't want to tell you like this, But this
is actually great because what's going to happen is I
wanted to surprise you with the trip, and we're going
to go and we're gonna have so much fun, and
Daddy Gert is going to spoil you, right, No, no, her.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Dad is going to spoil her rutting because he's the
one paying for this. How did you convince her parents
to give you five thousand dollars?
Speaker 7 (13:08):
Seriously, oh, parents know that I'm going to double that
triple day. And for your information, I already got an
appearance lined up with Austrian roller Blady company.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
They like the idea of eating on the go.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I don't see how we can. I mean, even your
parents see the merit in gert Topia.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
You're being sarcastic. It is a terrible idea.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I'm sorry, Josh. This is a It sounds like a
fun trip. It sounds like you're not having to pay
both positives. But this is not like your career. It's
just one viral TikTok video.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
It doesn't really mean that much.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
With over six million views on it. That doesn't just
happen for a one off thing. This is a business
waiting to literally always happens.

some time for process. Let's just focus on one thing.
The trip that is already booked. It's happening already paid
for by your parents.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
I mean, I just I call my best friend and
I've been to her, but with him, I haven't gone there.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Because I just know it's not going to end well.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Well, he's thinking, oh yeah, well fifteen grand up front,
and then once I go there, we could make thirty
brand of all the appearances. But if he doesn't, if
it's not a hit, then you're gonna be out fifteen grand. Yeah,
risk is what I'm trying.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
To I mean, has anyone from Ostrich contacted him, like
any agents or I mean it's serious like brands or
something like, because maybe he's right, maybe there's something over
there for him.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I mean he basically just tells me that he's contacted
a bunch of different people and he's working on some things.
But I just I don't even know what that means.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, it could be anything. Sounds like you're about to
be in a relationship with a famous yogurt man. Yeah someday.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Well it worked out for John Stamos.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
What did he do?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
He was the yogurt mascot for a while, or like
the Chobani dude.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Yeah, you think yogurt marketing hits very.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I mean he was already famous, so there was that.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
But but she doesn't want that. Beth doesn't want Daddy
Gert to I think realize fame.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
More than anything. She doesn't want Daddy Girt to take
fifteen g from her bank.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
Account lose it.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, we're going to talk about this a little bit
off the air. We'll come back, give you a little
bit of advice, and we'll let you call your boyfriend
Daddy Gert and try and convince him to not seize
his fifteen minutes of fame and just move on, go
back to his normal, boring life.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
No, boy, Yeah, I just think that's going to be
for the best.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Who would have thought yogur would have made anyone's life
more exciting?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna do it with you. Awkward
Tuesday phone call. Next, it's awkward.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. Alexis, I want to ask you, theoretically,
if you're dating a great guy. He's fun, he has
a good job.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
This already's unrealist.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
He buys you all the gifts that you could possibly want,
and then one time he makes a video of himself
tossing yogurt in the air and catching it in his
off and gos viral for it. Could you still support
him and be with him after that? Or is that
the ultimate ditch? You know, it's worse than that.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Might be making his own T shirts. That's such an Oh,
you don't like them making up a T shirt? Okay,
the video like he.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Was trying to go viral with it. It just happened accidentally,
and he's leaning in like I've decided that I'm pro girt,
which also should probably go on one of his T
shirts or service. I I'm pro girt, But it's like
a probiotic yogurt. That's not what Beth wants. No wants
her boyfriend Daddy Girt to have his Girt dreams die
(07:29):
right here and now. And Brooke, do you have some
advice for what she should do?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
You know this is hard for you because you haven't
actually expressed your real feelings about this at all. Yeah,
because it was fine before when it was his money.
Now it's your money that he's also trying to invest
in this, and that's when you need to say, listen,
I've been saving your feelings, but we've crossed the line
where I need to tell you how I really feel, dude,
(07:56):
it's her money.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It's fifteen grand.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Are you comfortable with that? Beth being honest with your boyfriend?
Speaker 4 (08:02):
You know, I feel like we're at the crossroads where
it's I don't do it now, like I'm gonna get
sucked into this yogurt thing for good.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah, you're going to be part of the Girt empire
and you don't want to be ose.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What do you think Beth should do?
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Just tell him this, Do you really want to go
to a place where there's openly rude people and dog
poop everywhere? Okay, bad facts about Austria and of many things.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I've heard, Austria is one of the most beautiful countries
in the world.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
No, Beth, can you forward him a link to bad
Austrian facts dot com.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I'm gonna collect my list of negatives along with the
whole spitting up yogurt.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Okay, exactly, all right, we have some advice there. I'm
not going to call it great advice well, but it's
hopefully helpful. We're gonna dial Daddy Girt right now, your
boyfriend and let you have your conversation with him. You ready, Yeah, but.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Do you mind just calling him Josh?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Please.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Okay, fine, Beth, this is your awkward Tuesday phone call.
So I'll just call him just Josh, call boring old
Josh and let you make your awkward call. Here we go.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
You got good. Who's this? Hey?
Speaker 3 (09:23):
It's me.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
Hey big so.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Hey, Uh nothing. I just wanted to know if you
had a few minutes to chat.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Yeah, what's going on? We got a video to do.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
But let's oh, okay, another yogurt video.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Yeah, you know, making that move?
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Lah.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Yeah, I'm glad that you brought that up. Those videos
make money.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Now, I mean it's investment, so yeah, eventually, eventually, don't worry.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Baby.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Wow, I just before we get into this empire, I
just kind of wanted to talk about the fifteen thousand dollars.
I'm just I'm not sure I'm quite comfortable spending that
kind of money.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Yeah, but Babe, we've talked about this. This is how
it works. You got to spend money to make money. Baby.
I'm not just an artist. I'm also an entrepreneur. So
if you want to get to girt Topia, you got
to pay the toll. You feel me?
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Okay, okay, but that's the problem. I don't I don't
want to go there. No one wants to go to
girt TOPIAKA.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Just hear me out. I wouldn't have to do my
job anymore. Okay, you could quit your job. You can
manage me. We'd have a lifetime supply of yogurt in
the fridge from the highest bidder. There are so.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
Many like these are all really fun dreams to have,
but like, let's just be realistic for a minute here.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Okay, hold on, I think I am being realistic because
this can be huge, and I'm I know what I'm
ga want.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I want to support you do. I want you to
follow your dreams. But it's just so much money and
I just don't make it's a good time.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Okay, look it's too late. So I already bought the
plane tickets to Vienna. And no, no you didn't. Yeah
you look two months from now, babe.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
No, no, no, no, you did not spend our money without
asking me.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
No, I didn't use our money. I asked your parents
if they'd invest and your dad wrote me a check
for five grandy You what, who's this? What is going on?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Hey man on the radio right now with Brooke and
Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Excellent opportunity. To promote your business.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Well that's why we're in Oh my god.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What is going on right now?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Well this is called an awkward Tuesday phone call. And
Beth reached out to us because she wasn't sure how
to have this conversation with you about not spending fifteen
thousand dollars on the trip to Austria.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
Because are you serious right now?
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Of course I'm serious. It's a lot of money to
throw into Daddy girk kills enough.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
No, no, no, no, Are you serious that you just got
a hell of promotion right now?
Speaker 6 (12:22):
He's see this.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I told you, Beth, you got to be straight with
Daddy Girt.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I told you, bet you can manage this, and this
is crazy. Thank you for this.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
By the way, Beth, you're better at managing his Girt
life than you even realized you were.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
I didn't mean for this to be a positive thing
like this was supposed to be a wake up call
for you.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
I didn't want to tell you like this, But this
is actually great because what's going to happen is I
wanted to surprise you with the trip, and we're going
to go and we're gonna have so much fun, and
Daddy Gert is going to spoil you, right, No, no, her.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Dad is going to spoil her rutting because he's the
one paying for this. How did you convince her parents
to give you five thousand dollars?
Speaker 7 (13:08):
Seriously, oh, parents know that I'm going to double that
triple day. And for your information, I already got an
appearance lined up with Austrian roller Blady company.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
They like the idea of eating on the go.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Oh, which is.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
The same same business plans go.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Rolling.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Yeah, Clean, don't encourage him. Guys, you're not helping right now.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
I don't see how we can. I mean, even your
parents see the merit in gert Topia.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
You're being sarcastic. It is a terrible idea.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I'm sorry, Josh. This is a It sounds like a
fun trip. It sounds like you're not having to pay
both positives. But this is not like your career. It's
just one viral TikTok video.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
It doesn't really mean that much.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
With over six million views on it. That doesn't just
happen for a one off thing. This is a business
waiting to literally always happens.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
For a one off thing.
Speaker 7 (14:08):

I have a dream, and that's what we do as spouses.
We got to support our loved one.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
These are spouses. You're Marriedale, I.
Speaker 5 (14:18):

all part of the grand master plan.
Speaker 1 (14:22):

didn't know that you could get worse than Daddy Kurt,
and you did.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
I might got to complete lost her words because I
get it.

This is a lot is happening here. We probably need
some time for process. Let's just focus on one thing.
The trip that is already booked. It's happening already paid
for by your parents.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
It'd be really fun to go to Austria.
