Speaker 1 (00:02):
That's a Bobby Bone shoot. Thank you guys for listening
to the podcast. Our Frankie Munez interviewed coming up in
just a second, which is super cool. And then after
that we're gonna do another edition of the Wheel of Selfish,
the Selfish Wheel. If Land's back on lunchbox, I don't
know what we're gonna do. Oh, guys, we spent forty
minutes doing no.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Take me off? What he's talking about, Mike, come on now.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Can't take him off. But first, here is our interview
this morning with Frankie Munez. There we go on the
Bobby Bone Show.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Now, Frankie Muniz.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Hey, frank you have a race tonight. What do you
do day of a race now to I don't know
what not to eat or stretch or what.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
You know. I'm a pretty superstitious person. So when I
find something that I think works, like, I've got to
keep doing it. And you know, so far this season,
you know, we're two races into the season. But I
had a really good result in Dayton when I got
my first career top ten Truck Series and in Atlanta
(01:01):
we were racing so good, like we were up there,
we were battling with like you know, past champions and
winners and cup drivers, and I felt really good. And
the thing that I did before each race was a
really cheesy peloton dance cardio warm up. So that's gonna
be my thing so far this season until it stops working.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
What is the difference And we have a lot of
drivers on but most of them drive cars, So what's
the difference in car and truck when it comes to competing?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I mean, really not much to be honest. The chassis,
the truck chassis is built off the car chassis, like
if you know, I think people think we're racing like
trucks with a truck bed, Like there's a truck bed,
but there's no you can't put anything in it, you
know what I mean. I would say the trucks and
the cars are all about the same speed. The biggest difference,
I would say is the truck pokes a little bit
(01:54):
bigger of a hole in the air, So I think
it brings the closing the race the racing a lot
closer because just the draft is bigger. You can affect
other people's vehicles with yours based on where you place
it on their truck, so there's a little more you
can do with the air, But otherwise I would say
(02:14):
the racing is almost identical.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Talking with a lot of professional athletes and even drivers,
they all have different feelings on where they went through
adrenaline to be when the race starts. Some want to
be completely jacked up on adrenaline. Some don't because they
want to be able to keep their heart rate low
so they can make decisions as if they were thinking
on a regular Tuesday, where do you fall in that?
Are you right? Are you jacked up and ready to
go before a race or no.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I definitely like the first couple of races when I
started in the NASCAR world two years ago, I was like,
my heart rate an hour before the race was at
two hundred and it stayed there the entire time, and
just like, but I just got exhausted, right, You're just
physically so drained by the end of the race because
you know you're in that fight mode the whole time.
Where now I seem more calm when I start the race.
(03:01):
I tried during the race to breathe and make myself
kind of stay more in that relaxed state as much
as you can at you know, two hundred miles an hour.
I find it. When I'm there, you're just less tense.
You can you can definitely relax more and and make
better decisions in those split seconds you need to when
(03:23):
you're not, you know, running out of ten the whole time.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Where did the passion for racing come from? At what age?
And how did you start?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I mean, I was always a huge race fan, like,
always enjoyed watching as a kid. I didn't grow up
in a family that liked racing like I think even
to this day, my mom and my dad they like
that I'm racing, but they don't care because they're not
like fans of it. But I remember being like six
years old and waking up and watching the Formula one
(03:52):
races and IndyCar races and NASCAR races. But I never
thought i'd be a driver. But I got to do
the pro celebrity race that they did in Long Beach
a bunch of years and I ended up winning that
in two thousand and four, and that was like, I
can't explain to you the joy that that brought me
crossing the finish line first, and I was hooked. But
(04:13):
even then I didn't know how I'd become a professional driver,
but kind of I guess I was lucky in the
sense that I got offered a test by a team.
I was really fast. They signed me to a tier
development deal, and the next thing I knew, I was
a professional race card driver. So it wasn't something I
thought my whole life that I get to do. But
I'm so grateful that that small experience in the Pro
(04:33):
Celebrity race led me to where I am now because
I can say this, like, I've got to do a
lot of things in my life, and I've had a
lot of success, and I'm super grateful for all that.
But when I put my visor down and I leave
the pit lane, I truly feel like I'm doing what
I'm supposed to be doing, and that's a pretty cool
feeling to have.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I'm a big priorities and capacity guy, and so you
got to kind of select what you want to do
and then how much of it can you actually give
Where in your life was that pivot point where racing
became a priority that you could give capacity to and
it wasn't acting and now you're committed to racing.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Well, Malcolm n did in two thousand and six, and
that was my first year two thousand and six was
my first year as a pro driver, and you know,
so I'm kind of leaving Hollywood in the height of
my career, right I remember calling my agents and managers
saying like, hey, I'm going racing and if I'm going
to compete against the best drivers in the world, that
this is their life, Like I need to compete like
(05:32):
that as well. I can't do it as a hobby.
I can't do it on the side. I can honestly
say like racing right now is one hundred percent my focus.
I'm doing everything I can every day to be as
prepared as possible. That said, we are about to start
filming the Malcolm reboot during the season. I have a
three year old, i have a wife, I'm building a house,
(05:52):
and I'm trying to figure out that balance. I'm trying
to figure out, you know that maybe sometimes it is
okay to say no to certain things. I've never been
that person. I've always been like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll
do it, that I could do, that, I could do it,
and just trying to make sure that I'm I'm giving
one hundred percent to everything I'm doing because I don't
want to look back at the end of the year
and go darn, I could have tried harder. I wish
(06:14):
I didn't phone that in. And I'm trying to also
still be a good husband and a good father, and
it's it's definitely tough.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
I feel like life is flying by. But I also
have learned in my past that when you have opportunity
like I do, like this full time season in NASCAR
and Malcolm coming back, like those aren't things that are
going to be around forever, right, so I need to
make sure I take advantage of that opportunity and give
it my all.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Just a couple more racing questions, What is that toll
on your body whenever you get out of the truck
after the race.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I mean, I'm I'm definitely beyond exhausted. I mean I
trained really hard. I'd probably work out, you know, like
two hours a day. I do a lot of cardio.
I'm trying to lift a lot of weights. My heart
rate in the race car never really drops below one seventy, so,
you know, I kind of to put it in perspective,
it's like sprinting uphill for two and a half hours
(07:15):
in a one hundred and sixty degrees on, you know
what I mean. So it's extremely mentally and physically exhausting.
And I'm definitely spend. I am a lot older than
a lot of the other drivers. I'm thirty nine. Most
of the guys in the truck series are eighteen, nineteen twenty,
And I see them get out and they don't even
(07:36):
have a beat of sweat on them, and I'm like,
I don't get it. But it's definitely extremely physical. And
that's one thing I'm really trying to focus on is
being as prepared as I can physically before I get
in the car, right, So like doing whatever training I
can to make sure I'm ready. So I know, I
don't want to like get towards the end of a
race and be having a good run and just be like,
I'm so physically exhausted I can't turn, you know what
(07:57):
I mean. So I'm trying to get in better shape.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I read get a pilot's license. Are you just an
adrenaline guy in general, or just like a trap automobile.
I don't even know how you compare the two. You
just like to go places and things.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
You know, It's funny. I don't consider myself an adrenaline
drunk junkie at all. Like I sure I race cars,
Sure I do things that maybe people put in that category,
But like I'm afraid, at thirty nine years old to
jump on a skateboard, you know what I mean. Like
I don't like I don't want to get hurt, you
know what I mean. I don't know. I've never skydived,
(08:36):
I have no desire. I've never bungee jumped. Like like
when I think of things that like are adrenaline junkie things,
like if I think of like a Travis Pastrana, I
don't do any of those things.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Any of those the Travis Petrano he jumps out of
the airplane with no parachute. You ever see that clip
where he jumps and then they have to like catch
him and then and then lock up with them.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
I literally just was watching that literally the other day.
I saw it was on Instagram, and I was like,
I don't I don't even understand how you stab him
wanting to try that, But hey, he's awesome for what
he does.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I was reading about the Malcolm in the Middle revival,
and I think a lot of people in my ages
that were born in the eighties we all watched Malcolm
in the Middle loved it. But before Malcolm, like, how
did you get into acting? Because you were young something
you wanted to do and your parents were like, yep,
we'll help you, or something they kind of led you
to do because you had a lot of tendencies as
a performer.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
You don't as a kid. I literally did everything. I'd
go from football, the basketball to tap in jazz to soccer.
Like I my parents had me involved in everything that
I wanted to do, and acting was one of those
things that the same kind of racing. I hate to
say that, but like happened in a whim. My sister
(09:49):
actually did like a summer arts camp and they put
on a show at the end of the summer and
it was awesome. And I remember she was going to
audition for another play or something and she's like, you
audition And we were jumping on the trampoline and she
picked a song for me to sing, and I showed
up not knowing what I was doing, and sang and
it was for Christmas Carol, and I got the part
of Tiny ten. The second rehearsal, an agent came up
(10:13):
to my parents and was like, hey, I'd love to
represent him. And send him on auditions for commercials and
movies and and really from that day forward until Malcolm
ended in two thousand and six, like it took over
my life. I never I never said I wanted to
be an actor, if that makes sense. I loved it,
(10:33):
but it was the thing that took over I. It's
a weird thought, Like I never said I didn't want
to be an actor. I just like it was one
of the many things I did. So I it was
we were all kind of along for the ride, my
family and I. You know, it wasn't something that like
we we were lucky in the sense that we didn't
(10:54):
have to work too hard at it. It just kind
of started happening. And I never stopped working until, you know,
I just I had to go racing. And kind of
an interesting thing to think back at now. You know,
I have a with a son, and I want him
to be involved the same way in like all these
different things in sports and see what he really likes
and loves and and it's weird that like one of
those things can literally change his life forever, you know,
(11:17):
if he if he's good at it, or if he
gets lucky or whatever it may be. So It's an
interesting thought.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
When you talk about finishing Malcolm in the Middle and
you went right to racing. Then I wondered did you
have the resentment? Because some actors they got famous as
a kid, have resentment that they're only known for that
one role as they try to get other roles. But
I feel like if you went from one and you
straight pivoted, maybe the resentment wasn't there or wasn't the same.
(11:42):
Did you have it at all?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It actually didn't. I mean even remember like my agents
and managers back then being like, we've got to make
sure we pick the right movies in your you know,
during the hiatus, you know, to make sure people you're
not getting type casts, and and I was always kind
of like, well, I just want to do the thing
I want to do that I think will be fun.
But also I always thought if I were remembered forever
(12:07):
as Malcolm, you know, a show that everyone around the
world loved, that's pretty cool, you know what I mean.
I never shied away from it, like I didn't, you know,
I've always kind of been grateful for the opportunity I had.
I don't know, it's it's a you know, even even
these days, you know, we're about to redo Malcolm and
(12:29):
it'll be the you know, even though I've done some
acting here and there over the last let's call it
twenty years, it has it one pen my focus. But
I'm thrilled that people are really excited to see where
Malcolm and his family are. So the fact that like
I get to be a part of that is is
a cool thing. So I would never shy away from it.
(12:50):
I do understand why maybe people do have that resentment,
But I also think that a lot of actors think
the grass is greener on the other side type of situation.
Like there's a lot of actors who are on hit
TV shows and they go, oh, I don't want to
do my show anymore. I just want to do movies
and do different roles. And I'm like, I look back
at it now and I go, you have no idea
(13:11):
how lucky you are to be a a working actor
at all, but be like successful on a show that
people love, like take advantage of it. It's not going
to last forever. I mean maybe if it's Gray's Anatomy
and they're on like what season twenty three or something
like that season twenty four, But even then like, you know,
I think Ellen Pompeo. I think about it. I go, like,
you know, she has the easiest gig ever. She knows
(13:32):
the characters so well, she's making tons of money, she's
having fun, she sees the people all the time. I mean,
I feel like that's a great, a great gig.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
I think actors they forget that. When they first started,
they would do anything they could for free, right local theater,
Oh you needing in this commercial, I'll be in your film.
I'll do everything just to get the opportunity to work
on my craft and be an actor. And then all
of a sudden they kind of go like I want
to do bigger things and better things, and you know
they've forget that, like it can go away in an instant.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You guys are doing the revival on Disney Plus, can
you just come out the plot? It's going to be like,
what what's happening? Whenever everybody gets back together.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
I don't know how much I'm allowed to give, but
I've seen some like reports, not reports, but like news
stories come out like that kind of say what's happening?
But Malcolm, you know, obviously twenty years older, you kind
of you get to see where he is in his
life with his career and success. He does have a daughter,
and I think that's going to be a pretty cool
(14:32):
element for people to see. And the plot around the
story is it's Hall and Lois's thirty or forty year
and wedding anniversary, and they're trying to get the whole
family and everybody back together, and Malcolm is having a
hard time finding the time, and I don't know, there's
a lot of let's call it typical Malcolm drama that
(14:54):
ensues with the family getting back together.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I had three final questions, all completely random. One if
you're still if you are a wrestling fan, how'd you
feel about John Cena's He'll Turn? And if you're not
a wrestling fan, ig nor the question.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
I can honestly say, I haven't watched wrestling since maybe
nineteen ninety eight Classic.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Okay, that's me. I'm the one, and I don't feel
good about it. Okay, so I'll answer that question. Number two,
Dancing with the Stars. I know you did the show.
You finished third, so you made the finale episode. Did
you feel like you would win that season while doing it?
Speaker 3 (15:29):
I never thought it was even a possibility. I remember starting,
you know, they asked me to do that show for
ten years and I was like, no, I don't dance,
it's not my personality. Put myself out there like that,
like I don't know, and I finally did it, and
I loved it. I remember like once I started realizing,
I didn't want it to end. So like I worked crazy,
(15:50):
crazy hard, and I don't think anybody ever put in
more time than I had at that point rehearsing. But
I just had a good time. But I remember even
being at the finale, you like, you know, you do
the dress rehearsal like in third place, and they do
like a fake third Place. I was like, I'll let
me know where I need to go because like obviously
I don't deserve to be second or first. And I
(16:11):
finished third. So I was thrilled to have made it
to the finale because I got to, you know, perform
all the weeks that I possibly could and all the
dances I possibly could, but didn't didn't think I expect
I definitely didn't expect to win.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Did you keep a relationship with Jane or Brian Cranston
through the years after Malcolm.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
I talked to Brian a lot. He's just always been
one of those people that always reaches out and checks in,
and I love that about him, Like he's definitely my
my role model as a as a human in general,
but especially as an actor. And yeah, he's always been
so supportive of whatever it is I'm doing and and
(16:51):
and shown up. I've talked to Jane a few times.
I'm really excited to get back on set with everybody,
you know what I mean, because I feel like it's
like a I always I always explain Malcolm or like
doing a show, or at least for me, like summer camp.
You go, you spend all your time with everybody, You
have an amazing time, you make amazing relationships, and you're like,
we're gonna be best friends forever, and we're going to
(17:13):
write each other every single day. And then you go
back to your life and they go back to their life,
and maybe you're write a few times and then you go, wait,
five years has gone by, ten years has gone by,
Holy crap, it's been twenty years. And I'm excited to
see where everybody's been and just just to get to
rekindle those friendships and those relationships. And it's my goal
(17:34):
to be a better friend this time around. Once the
show's over.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Craftsman Truck Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway tonight
at nine pm Central on FS one. Hope you get
in your peloton, you get loose. I hope you're feeling good.
Do you feel like you're getting better? Like, because again
you're more reps, you get better, Like you said, you've
had some some top ten finishes. Do you feel like
you're getting better?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You know, racing is so it's such a mental game,
you know. Last year was rough. The prior year I
almost won the championship. I felt really good. I felt
like I was learning, I felt like I was doing
really well. So it was easy to show up every
week and feel like you could win. Last year was
the opposite, Like I felt like I couldn't finish a race.
We had a lot of mechanical issues and a lot
of problems, you know. So just having those first two races,
(18:23):
even though we had a bad wreck in the last one,
we were running really good. We were where we want
to be competing, and that feels good. So it's kind
of a case by case basis. The highs are so high,
the lows are so low, but you really kind of
have to forget each race and just kind of focus
at the task of hand. But I can say those
(18:43):
good finishes help with my confidence, make me feel like
I can do this. I can compete against these guys.
You know. I'm you know, because sometimes you have self doubt,
you know what I mean. And it's not easy. It's
definitely not easy, but I don't know. I'm trying really
hard and I want it more than anything.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I We're rooting for you. Hey, Frankie, thank you for
spending some time with us. Good luck tonight and we'll
be watching you man, have a great evening.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Thank you so much to you.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Get your Bobby bones on. Let's spend the selfish wheel.
All of our names are on it. If it lands
on you, you gets talk about whatever you want. It can
be the most selfish thing, something we normally wouldn't talk about.
It doesn't matter. Here we go.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Let's spend.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
All right, it's me. I like talking about playing pick
a ball.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
You know what, I thought you were gonna go alien,
So let it rip, hey with aliens, No, dang it.
So I tried to get in a pick a ball
tournament last weekend. I know, and I tried on like
Tuesday to get in the one that was on Saturday,
and it was full already because they don't have them
all the time here in town, and I couldn't get in.
(19:59):
So then I call the place and I was like,
can I get in? Then I called their boss place
that was running now they couldn't get in. And so
I put myself on a list of if a pick
a ball tournament opens up in the area, hit me
up because I want to go play. And I don't
even know how good I am really because I don't
play against people that like keep their own because there's ratings.
There's like three point oh three point five, four point oh,
four point five, five point oh.
Speaker 6 (20:20):
Was like, pro if you had to rate yourself.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Good question. I'll come back to that because I don't
really know. But so I got an email and I
was like, Hey, there's a pick a ball tournament. It's
in like two weeks something signed up, paid seventy bucks,
nice boom, got in. It's three hours away. I'm not
going to that three hours away Memphis. No, it's in Like,
so't go to Memphis. You play and they get robbed? Yeah,
(20:43):
I mean you play against you prize money, get robbed
on the way out. Yeah, it was some weird turn,
like like, it's not Columbia is that far away.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Columbia is not too far. It's an hour and a half.
Yeah maybe yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
I signed up for a tournament three hours away, and
I'm not driving three hours to go play a tournament.
So I guess, like I said, I don't really want.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
It, I'll take your spot.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
You you never played, I.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Know I'd be hilarious. Your rating will go way down.
I don't have a rating. I know what I'm saying,
but you'll start out loose. You'll get the easier petition.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
You wouldn't be my name. No, no, no's how it works.
So you sign up in a tournament, like I was
going to sign up in a three point zero tournament
to play singles because I don't know what that is.
And I played with a friend who I'm friends with
his wife, and his wife's like, hey, my husband plays
all the time, like four times a week. So I
invited him over to play and I beat him. And
before I beat him, I was just like kind of
feeling out what number he was, and he was like, yeah,
(21:35):
I he was just playing like four point zero tournaments
and then I beat him. Now, I don't he could
have been having a bad day, but I was feeling
pretty good about myself. And I did twist my ankle
a little bit. Uh oh, but I didn't say it
because I wanted be one of those guys that gets injured.
So we're playing best at three. I win the first one.
He got me on the I twisted my ankle in
the middle Amy sobortion on her computer see Selver segments. Guys,
we had pay attention to Lunchbox. I'm looking up Lunchbox
(21:57):
was doing his stupid stuff about all.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I'm looking up where your tournament is so I can figure.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Out how far to drive off a segment.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
I will say I spaced that when Lunchbox was talking.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I know, I can't even know you did.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
You can't do that, actually, interested in your rating anyway?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Spend the midle again, your ankle like just to I
heard it at the end of the first game. I
lost the second game, but I tried so hard not
to favor my ankle because I don't want to be
the person who's like, I'm injured, I'm losing. I hate
that person.
Speaker 6 (22:27):
That's Eddie.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Excuse me when when have I said.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
That you get injured often?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I broke my arm, well in your foot, But the
difference is he doesn't play with it, or he doesn't
not have an injury and fake like he has one
for when he's getting beat, because people will do that too,
they'll be getting beat. They'll be like, oh, ankle. I
don't want to be that guy. Even though I turned
my ankle a little bit and so I just tried
to hide it, and then I ended up winning Game three,
really fought back from adversity again. They should option that
(22:56):
Disney Plus. But now I'm just kind of wondering what
level I'm at, and I still got to go play
the guy for a thousand bucks in Cleveland. We have
an attorney that's coming on twenty five whistles on Monday
to make sure we can set up an escrow legally
to put the money in. We can't say it's a bet.
It has to be a competition.
Speaker 6 (23:08):
Why do you have to put it in escrow?
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Because I don't trust giving this whole this dude hold money.
I don't know that he doesn't know you either, so
he doesn't know that we're not scamming him.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
Oh well, I'm good for it, scammer.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Every scammer said scared, Yeah, we got it.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
Okay, so you put it in escrow.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
So we have an attorney.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
So on Monday's twenty five whistles, he's on with us
talking about how he's not my attorney. He is a
I don't know him, but he's going to do it
and it will be even for both sides, because I
don't want to get scammed for a thousand bucks. I
paid this two thousand bucks to hold the money. I
get up to Cleveland to play him, and then I
(23:47):
don't even get the money.
Speaker 6 (23:48):
Yeah. So how do you get your rating?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I think you play in tournaments?
Speaker 6 (23:52):
Oh you can't just but I mean if you had
to guess.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I don't know what how to do that?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Let me.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I mean I can look it up.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
Like in the Karate Kid, he just told him he
was a black belt when he really was just trained
by mister Miyagi.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
How do I get a pickleball rating? Okay, self rate
using us A Pickleball skill assessment sheets, or participate in tournaments.
Here's a self rating and that says self rating. Use
a USA Pickleball Skill Assessment sheet sends you back.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
It was weird.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
I'm running in circles here, Uh, how to find your
pickleball rating? I'll do like three more minutes of this
because I can tell one of my selfishness. Really nobody
cares about it.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
I do have questions. I experienced it.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Can I tell you what a four point is. It's
understanding and performing pickleball. Can rate all of them.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
One point oh player has never played and has no
skill set.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
That's lunch.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's a fear one point oh player. Two point and
you can be in the middle of it. Could be
a one point three apparently one point eight. A two
point zero player is just starting to play and has
no other sports background. Two point five player has a
limited experience, can't sustain a short rally, and it's still
learning all the rules. Three point zero player understands the
fundamentals and basic rules as well as court positioning. They
(25:12):
can construct limited points. Three point five player knows the
differences between the hard and soft game. They can get
to the non volley zone consistently, and are beginning to
understand the benefits of stacking. They may have an unrelated
sports background that may help some with new skills more quickly.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Do you understand.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
I'm at least three point five. That means how to
hit the ball.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
You know, okay, you know the difference.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You know the difference hitting the ball hard or soft
dropping it over softly?
Speaker 4 (25:45):
And what about the stack? Even the stack?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
You know, wh iking in doubles. I don't only play a
lot of doubles, but stacking can be if for standing
on the same side on the serve and then you
both jump to different places. I'm left handed. We stack
a little bit sometimes, just because left handed people have
big disadvant and the occasional advantage depending on court four
point zero players able to identify and attack opponent's weaknesses,
(26:06):
is aware of their partner's position on the court, able
to move as a team with their partners. This is
mostly doubles. What's five? They have up to eight? Oh
my god, yeah, I'm not I'm not that yet. I'm
not pro yet. I'm trying to go pro. But anyway,
I sign up for a stupid tournament, paid seventy bucks
and now I can't even go just three hours.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Do you get the money back?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Is that money gone?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I think, as a wise man once said, money gone?
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Sorry? Oh yes, what was the prize for that tournament medal?
Like no money?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Oh the guy I played, I don't think no no
prize money. The guy played one silver medal like a
week ago.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
That's cool, but so like, do you like a metal ceremony?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I never been to a tournament, dude, Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Just wondering what you're going there, like, because I mean.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
I'm just going there to beat people.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
And do they have a sign that says this court
is for pickleball three point ers? And then the people
are four point zero?
Speaker 1 (26:54):
So it's like, em it's like a tournament where they
I don't think it's signs because there's so many people
playing at once, but I think they're like, I've never
been to a tournament. I tried to go to my
first one. I couldn't get in.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
You play one in town, I'm going, But now you're in.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Do we go in? Like, have no short on the
right that could be on your chair?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Percent We'll all do it.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Would be awesome.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Your mouse in your pocket, I'll go.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
You have to wear a sports broad right on your belly.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
That's how they do it, Bobby, Yes, oh yeah, we
could do b oh b b Why.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
And then I lose on a one point.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
How do you think you would handle losing?
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Fine, because long I'm still in the tournament. No, I
mean you lose double eliminations.
Speaker 6 (27:30):
Okay, you're double eliminated. Like, how would you handle that?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
I would shake hands, say hey, great game, walk out
of the place, get in my car, drive home, and
then punch myself in the face.
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Like this is where I get worried, like adding another
thing to your plate to get all worked.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Up about it. I need something to get all worked
up about because I need to put that energy somewhere.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Okay, all right, you have to get work.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It's that or UFC. You guys picked.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
You might die if I was going to pickle ball.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I'm one point.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
But also he did say if he loses, he's going
to punch himself in the.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
I might get myself a u FC invertent and you
print yourself interesting. One more here, let's do selfish will Oh, yes,
well you didn't win a prize. This is big, okay,
selfish will go ahead. Guys, I have gifts for you.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Yes, come on, you need these gifts, Okay, Can I
please give you this gift?
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (28:28):
But look at me, look at me and be honest.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
This is going to be stupid.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
No, it's not stupid. Well where is it you know
in high school?
Speaker 1 (28:34):
If you're giving us a gift on the podcast, on
the show, this is going to be stupid.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I mean, you have no gift with you because it
just randomly came up on the wheel, so you don't
have it with me.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I'm sure he has it, but I'm sure it's gonna
be something we have to do for him. Go ahead.
It's not for me, Go ahead, but it is for life.
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
I brought you guys gifts. Let me go get him
a filibuster, both philibuster what.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Oh, I know he's gonna go get I know he's
going to I think I know what he's gonna get to.
Don't say it.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I've never ruined the surprise. I'm not a surprise. I'm
not amy.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
I'm not gonna spoil it.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Oh my god, they're plants.
Speaker 6 (29:11):
I wanted one of these. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
This is a product.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh remember my show and Tell, which I had that
planetarium thing.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Whatever I got, like, my gift shouldn't be have to
do work. No, it's not work. It's not work. It's
however you want to do it.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Can I put my energy drink in there.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Oh, that's the experiment. You can try what I want
to see. I gave you guys plants. So these are
Japanese money plants. They came originally from a plant I bought.
I took the leaves off, I put.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
Them in water.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
They grew their own babies. So you guys have the babies.
There are three babies, Amy, Bobby Lunchbox. You guys have
these babies. It's up to you to keep them alive.
You want to give them energy drinks. See what happens. Hey,
maybe you get the biggest babies out of all of them.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
How much sunlight does it?
Speaker 1 (29:58):
I don't want to do work.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
It's not work, dude. It's your baby. It's if you
want to take care of it. You can take care
of it.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
How much sunlight does it need?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That's up that's up to you.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
I mean it's your You need to no, no.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
No no.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Once you give a gift, it's no longer mine.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
This is you all.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
What is it called Japanese money?
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Yeah? Money and lunch user.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Would you like to have a Japanese money plant? I
don't want it to die. I would like to give
it to a better home. I basically put it on
the steps of the fire department.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I believe that if you have something to care for,
take your mind off other than many things to care for.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
I have not a money plant, I have two dogs,
I have a wife and have all you need.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
But this will be representative of like, if we can
keep this alive and nurture it, it'll represent like the
little things we need to like we need to remember
to water ourselves and give ourselves air and sun correct.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
And it's really.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
It does need sun. But I feel like these lights
are kind.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Of like so much.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
I feel like these lights might harm.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
This is not a gift.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
Well, then you know what, take them home, take them home.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
We have take them home by a window.
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Why it looks pretty on my table.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
They're beautiful at least.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
And then what if these plants have a little anybody
hit it, dump over. It takes forever to get the
carpet cleaned.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Anyway, the good news is this is a member of
the stinging nettle family.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Perfect.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
I love to be stung by fan. It's soper easy
to look after this remarkable little plane. It's a true
beauty with its rounded, dark green leaves. It is perfectly
shaped to add a little bit of interest to your
indoor jungle lunch box. Being such a popular little guy,
we've written a little all you need to know God
on how to honor your plant.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
He's calling it a little guy.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
This is very is what the article.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
I didn't call it.
Speaker 6 (31:39):
But why is one of the little circular plant leaves things.
It's on lunchboxes. It's already dead.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Yeah, a that that's kind of why I give it
to lunch box. It's kind of like when you buy
something and there's like a stale cracker in there, like.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Oh, they love soaking up some sunshine. But in the
summer months, just be careful not to leave it directly
exposed to sunlight. It'd be such a same shame to
scorch this gorgeous greenery. Oh man. Watering, of course is
very important.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Water is important. That's it's a plant. I don't know
if you did this to be nice or as a joke,
or to torture us.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Why would you think I would do this to.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Torture I have no interest in plants.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
This is me being nice and sharing my love for plants.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Only water once a week.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
This is nothing, dude. They're so low maintenance. It's like
a beta fish. Those guys don't die well.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Actually the one calls that, oh no I killed.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Don't let the soil go bone dry. It'll be unhappy
with you.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Rate your gift, guys, out of what I don't care,
ten go ten, ten, I go ten.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Out of one, I go zero.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Thoughtful. He had to take the plant and reapont it
for us and soil bring it up here.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I'm telling you he's just trying to get out of
his house.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Plants in my house here is what's it called?
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Repurpose propagation, Yeah, propagating.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
I'll give it to one out of have any ten one.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
It's so I don't.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
I don't plan, and I also don't feel like his
intentions appeared.
Speaker 6 (33:06):
Feel like his intentions are. I'm very curious because like.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
What fun of us when it dies? So it can
be like I can raise a planet, you can't. It's
a superiority.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
I'm not.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
You for killing his plan.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Don't I got nobody a butterfly.
Speaker 6 (33:19):
It's not my plan thinks that way.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
I don't thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Amy, who's playing is it?
Speaker 4 (33:23):
And it's not my plane? It's your plan now, So
it's on you if you want to kill it.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
I don't want to kill it.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
I probably will go ahead, dude, you want to kill
your planet.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Kill it.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It's going to spend that great life with its foster parent. Abby.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
You let your you're playing the foster system.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
And I'm putting it. That's something you should know about
and you should appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (33:43):
I do.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I mean, I don't appreciate it, but I think you
should keep it.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
One other thing and thank you for the gift.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Man, I don't feel thank you for that. Sorry, thank
you for the chore.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
He's like Lunchbox said, you want to it once a week.
It's nothing, but.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
It's the gift that keeps on giving because if you
take care of it, you could prop get it.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
It's the gift that makes me work more and more
and more.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
I can't, but it's rewarding and very rewarding.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Hey, thanks Eddie, You're welcome.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
And that's my hope. Like I think, I typically kill plants,
but if I keep this one alive, it'll be rewarding.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
You can do it.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Try.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
I'm gonna try. That's why I gave it a ten.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
And he said he thought he saw you driving the
other day or his exact words were, I think I
saw a cougar.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
No, no, I saw a cougar in car that Amy drives.
And I was like, is that Amy?
Speaker 6 (34:27):
And it wasn't me.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
I don't know, maybe it was you.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Are you saying she's a cougar? Well?
Speaker 6 (34:30):
What is that? Why why would you say I'm a cougar?
Speaker 5 (34:33):
You know, you see people in cars and you're like, okay,
that's a young college kid.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
That's a So now you see me and I'm like
the older I mean I am. I'm turning forty four
next week, so.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
That'd be cougarish.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
We are are?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
So he said he saw a cougar and I was
like where, And he goes, well, I could have been
Amy in a car. Did you go to a.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
Hardware store on Wednesday? The parking lot?
Speaker 6 (34:54):
Nope? What hard like?
Speaker 2 (34:55):
What hard like?
Speaker 4 (34:57):
A big one?
Speaker 3 (34:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Well there's not like two big like that.
Speaker 6 (35:02):
No. I wasn't at home depot that Wednesday?
Speaker 4 (35:05):
Did in your car?
Speaker 1 (35:06):
So were they in the parking lot?
Speaker 4 (35:08):
They were driving like I was driving past them god,
And I was like, oh okay, that Amy, Amy?
Speaker 5 (35:14):
And I was like, well you know what I'm going
to ask if that was amy it was not, It's
not okay.
Speaker 6 (35:19):
I do have to go to home depot.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
Is that offensive that he thought you might have been
a cougar at first? Was it offensive?
Speaker 6 (35:26):
I think at first? But then when I really think
about my age, I then I guess take it as
a compliment because but I don't know. I'm not with.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
That was that.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Was a long time ago. So then if if if
you're not with someone younger, are you still a cougar
or is it just.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
I think it's just the age, right, I think you're
a cougar if you're open to the possibility of No.
Speaker 6 (35:54):
I thought this was a cradle robber.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
No, no, no, No, cred robber would be if the person's
like nineteen twenty oh.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
I thought that was just anyone younger.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
That's like a cradle robber would be like a dude
with somebody who's nineteen twenty eighteen, nineteen twenty twenty one.
A cougar is just somebody in their forties and up
who likes men in their mid young mid mid twenties.
Speaker 6 (36:16):
I had no twenty man. If let's say it was
me a look, but I'm not on the look. I
have a boyfriend that's older.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
No, no, I hear you now, But I'm saying, Eddie
thought it was a you were you look like a
cougar like you were looking like you were on the
hunt for a young man at the hardware.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
Store looking for a man?
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Are you getting like, sirs? A lot? Now?
Speaker 6 (36:42):
Really? All I get, mam, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Man, it's terrible, man, it's terrible.
Speaker 5 (36:46):
Ma'am Hey man, are you using that cart? No, sir,
I'm not. You can take that, sir.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
Oh yeah, ma'am, Miss missus Brown, miss Brown, just call me.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
It's so sad, man.
Speaker 5 (36:58):
It is a weird like time in your life where
like no one called you sir, and now all of
a sudden they're calling you sir.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
It's interesting you don't at all. I don't. I think
my glasses hide my age a bit.
Speaker 6 (37:07):
Well, I'm getting and that's it me too.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Well, mine are so thick though, you can't see any
age in the eyes.
Speaker 6 (37:13):
Yeah, okay, that's I'm going to get some.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
And also I'm if I'm not here, I mean I'm
a bit peter Pan dress wise. I wear sweats and
cutoffs like I have all my hair. I have all
my hair.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
That's helpful like that, so do I.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah, but you're a woman, you're cogar.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Yeah, when you're checking that dude in high school, it
was like they knew your son.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
The average parents spend sixty seven hours a year negotiating
with their kid.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Now no negotiations, excuse.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
Sometimes there is not in my house. Wow, it is
a blanket. You don't mean let them? Isn't a case?
Speaker 5 (37:51):
It depends if it's like a big, big, big ask
or whatever like, then we'll talk about it. But if
it's just like, come on, can have coke?
Speaker 2 (37:57):
No?
Speaker 6 (37:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Yeah, Well you ever change your mind on a big
ask if you've said no, Not if you've said maybe,
but if you've said no, have they ever convinced you
to change your mind?
Speaker 4 (38:06):
There is a uh what do you call that?
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Like a system where you go down from like all right,
there's the first answer, first response, Then my wife and
I talk about it, and then he pleads his case.
Speaker 4 (38:17):
Then we go back and talk about it.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
So he talks first, though, so he'll talk to you
and your wife or just you or just your wife.
Speaker 4 (38:22):
Sometimes he goes straight to my wife.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
First, okay, and then you will talk about it together
behind closed doors. Mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (38:27):
Then we'll make a decision what do you think and
then we kind of tell him and he'll be like, no, no, no,
but but what about like I.
Speaker 4 (38:32):
Really think this?
Speaker 5 (38:34):
All right, we'll think about that, and then we go
back and think about it, and then that's the final decision.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
And it has changed where if you've said no, but
then you've talked with your wife, she has convinced you
to listen a bit more, and you can come out
of that room going Okay, I'm a bit more open
and change your mind.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
Yes, yes, And but it usually ends up being kind
of like, all right, let's try it for a couple
of weeks and see what happens.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
But if you can prove that you're able to do
this and it's all good, then we'll move on.
Speaker 6 (38:58):
Yeah, without whining. That's what I say to my kids, like,
if you want to present a case, that's fine, but no,
no whining.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
I don't want to any more details because.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
If they're like, well why can't I do this? Or oh,
if it's like if there's any whining a part of
the case, then the case is thrown out. But if
you want to because I think it's just good practice
for them. If you want to put together some reasons
and some facts and why you think this should be
go for it.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Is that like staying out later or going somewhere like
what what generally? I mean because you're.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
They was run recently with my daughter who's seventeen. I
don't I haven't talked to her about talking about this,
so I'm not going to say that the topic. But
she put together a PowerPoint.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
That's awesome. She's in I don't evenre what he does
want to do drugs? Okay, PowerPoint it is you nailed it.
Do all the drugs you want because you follow through.
Speaker 6 (39:50):
Yeah, yeah, I mean so she had something. We were
pretty much like no, but then I said, should present
a case?
Speaker 1 (40:01):
Make surely? Maybe that I don't think. So here's the
power point. You know what, you made a good point?
Yeah it was you know what you did. You've really
delivered in a way I didn't expect that was good negotiations.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
She actually had points and valid My kid just says,
I'm like, oh, you can't do that. Why I know.
It's so frustrating because you're like, why I decided it's
not a safe decision to do that why, and then
it's just like, oh my gosh, they just say why
a hundred times, and you got to safety.
Speaker 6 (40:24):
Is my top concern.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Like if he launched a power point in response like five,
I'd be awesome. Oh right, what it was? Candy all
day breakfast? Launch handwer He did a PowerPoint? Sure? Uh.
The average momberdet spends a lot of time battling their
kid over things like food. They strike up to five
bargains a week dinner as the meal kids pushed back
on the most vegetables, and then they go into a
(40:46):
lot of specifically food things. I don't like vegetables. Anybody
have those.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
I have one that just doesn't eat, like, doesn't want
to eat. The other three they love to eat.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Doesn't want to eat to prove a point or.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Just I don't know what it is, but he just
doesn't want to eat like you.
Speaker 6 (41:03):
Like.
Speaker 5 (41:03):
Even what I used to do was just say like,
all right, you serve your plate, because at first I
would serve it or my wife would serve it, and
then they wouldn't eat it, and we'd may like finish
your food please, and then we're like all right, fine,
if you think that's too much, next time, you serve
your own plate.
Speaker 4 (41:17):
But whatever you serve yourself, you have to eat.
Speaker 5 (41:19):
Then he'd do like one French fry and like like
a little piece of a burger, like come on, you
have to eat. But it's just a thing, like it
doesn't want to. He's always the last one at the table
because he's not done.
Speaker 1 (41:29):
Eating, because not that he's not done, because he doesn't
want to be done, just doesn't really want to eat.
Amy you your thing?
Speaker 6 (41:36):
Well something that I mean, we struggle with vegetables, but
Sisha is wanting to add more. She does not like
a lot of them, but she's she has desire. Now
that she's getting older, she gets that like, oh I
feel a certain way if I eat this, or I
eat that or don't eat. So she's trying to add
more vegetables. Stevenson will open up the fridge and pull
out a box of mixed greens or lettuce or whatever
(41:58):
and just stick his hand in there, put in his
mouth like a rabbit. It's awesome. However, he also loves
sugary cereal and there's this one that I buy and
they get to have every once in a while. And
the other day he made a bowl because he had
permission to eat it. And then he got done, and
I saw him reach for it and fill up another bowl,
and I said, oh, nope, one bowl and I got
the At dad's house, they get to have to oh.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Day and I.
Speaker 6 (42:23):
Said, well, oh you're not at lucky for you. You'll
be there next week.
Speaker 4 (42:29):
Woad.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
That's good, got him back.
Speaker 5 (42:33):
My kids like to do the everyone everyone has whatever
fill in the blank. And I'm like, okay, well then
i'll go to your school tomorrow and I'll ask everyone, well,
well not everyone, Well you just said it.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
I just went once ye at school. Even if everybody
did my school, then they go. The one that I
have to have with my wife is no onions. I'm
the kid I don't.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
I hate onions.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
She's like, you won't even see them. I'll cut them
up so small. They need to be there when she cooks.
They need to be there for the taste. I hate onions.
If I see one, I'm not going to eat anything.
I'm seven and she's like, you will not see a
single onion. If I see a onion. I'm like, I
see an onion and she's like shut up, and I'm like, well,
I'll go to my dad She's like, you don't know
your dad. Good point.
Speaker 6 (43:10):
Dad doesn't make me eat onions.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
Yeah, but you're like my kids. I mean, no one
is my wife.
Speaker 3 (43:15):
That is true.
Speaker 6 (43:16):
Your dad doesn't make you eat onions.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
I hate onions.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
You even grilled.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
My dad didn't make me do a dang thing. He
didn't make me eat onions. He didn't make me do homework.
He did make me feel safe or loved, he didn't.
We could do this all day, boys and girls. Thank
you guys. Hope you had a great weekend. Be sure
to check out on Amy's podcast. What was the thing
you were doing this week on your podcast?
Speaker 6 (43:39):
Oh, like a short list of self care things, because
you know, I just did that weekend away with my
kids and my ex husband And one of the big
themes was simple things we can do as a family
if we ever need to reset. And so it's four
different ways just to check in with your emotions and
reset if you need to. But like, have you ever
heard of dopamine dressing?
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I know what dopamine is. I've never had that with
my turkey.
Speaker 6 (44:00):
Yeah, no it's not. It's dressing like when you're getting ready.
Speaker 1 (44:03):
I'd love that dope me dressing the turkey though. That awesome,
sounds good.
Speaker 6 (44:06):
Yeah, but there's it's science, and you know, colors can
go into it too. That colors, like if you wear
a certain color, you'll feel a certain way. But then
also just knowing what feels really good on you, and
if you go in your closet and if you have
a go to or you can like figure out outfits
that you just feel your best in when you look
in the mirror, when you show up at work wherever,
(44:26):
you get a hit of dopamine because you feel more
confident and you need those dopamine hits. So that's just
one of the tricks is trying to figure out that
in your closet, and then different methods and techniques and
tools you can use where you don't need anything, like
you don't need a pin, you don't need a journal.
You can just do it anywhere. Like I did one
of them with my kids the other day and it
totally reset us and it was great.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
This is me when I look in my closet, Kayla,
what color is this green? Never mind? What color is
this blue? Okay? Does this red match with Arkansas hat?
That's not red? Okay? That's me and my closet, everything
with every single You.
Speaker 6 (45:04):
Probably feel your best when you have on your red because.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
It's like a dope. It's a dope, it's a dope
pit in the closet, just dope. I'm a dope because
I can't tell what color anything is. Thank you guys,
have a great weekend. We will see you Monday. Bye everybody.
That's a Bobby Bone shoot. Thank you guys for listening
to the podcast. Our Frankie Munez interviewed coming up in
just a second, which is super cool. And then after
that we're gonna do another edition of the Wheel of Selfish,
the Selfish Wheel. If Land's back on lunchbox, I don't
know what we're gonna do. Oh, guys, we spent forty
minutes doing no.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Take me off? What he's talking about, Mike, come on now.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Can't take him off. But first, here is our interview
this morning with Frankie Munez. There we go on the
Bobby Bone Show.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Now, Frankie Muniz.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Hey, frank you have a race tonight. What do you
do day of a race now to I don't know
what not to eat or stretch or what.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
You know. I'm a pretty superstitious person. So when I
find something that I think works, like, I've got to
keep doing it. And you know, so far this season,
you know, we're two races into the season. But I
had a really good result in Dayton when I got
my first career top ten Truck Series and in Atlanta
(01:01):
we were racing so good, like we were up there,
we were battling with like you know, past champions and
winners and cup drivers, and I felt really good. And
the thing that I did before each race was a
really cheesy peloton dance cardio warm up. So that's gonna
be my thing so far this season until it stops working.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
What is the difference And we have a lot of
drivers on but most of them drive cars, So what's
the difference in car and truck when it comes to competing?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I mean, really not much to be honest. The chassis,
the truck chassis is built off the car chassis, like
if you know, I think people think we're racing like
trucks with a truck bed, Like there's a truck bed,
but there's no you can't put anything in it, you
know what I mean. I would say the trucks and
the cars are all about the same speed. The biggest difference,
I would say is the truck pokes a little bit
(01:54):
bigger of a hole in the air, So I think
it brings the closing the race the racing a lot
closer because just the draft is bigger. You can affect
other people's vehicles with yours based on where you place
it on their truck, so there's a little more you
can do with the air, But otherwise I would say
(02:14):
the racing is almost identical.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Talking with a lot of professional athletes and even drivers,
they all have different feelings on where they went through
adrenaline to be when the race starts. Some want to
be completely jacked up on adrenaline. Some don't because they
want to be able to keep their heart rate low
so they can make decisions as if they were thinking
on a regular Tuesday, where do you fall in that?
Are you right? Are you jacked up and ready to
go before a race or no.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I definitely like the first couple of races when I
started in the NASCAR world two years ago, I was like,
my heart rate an hour before the race was at
two hundred and it stayed there the entire time, and
just like, but I just got exhausted, right, You're just
physically so drained by the end of the race because
you know you're in that fight mode the whole time.
Where now I seem more calm when I start the race.
(03:01):
I tried during the race to breathe and make myself
kind of stay more in that relaxed state as much
as you can at you know, two hundred miles an hour.
I find it. When I'm there, you're just less tense.
You can you can definitely relax more and and make
better decisions in those split seconds you need to when
(03:23):
you're not, you know, running out of ten the whole time.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Where did the passion for racing come from? At what age?
And how did you start?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I mean, I was always a huge race fan, like,
always enjoyed watching as a kid. I didn't grow up
in a family that liked racing like I think even
to this day, my mom and my dad they like
that I'm racing, but they don't care because they're not
like fans of it. But I remember being like six
years old and waking up and watching the Formula one
(03:52):
races and IndyCar races and NASCAR races. But I never
thought i'd be a driver. But I got to do
the pro celebrity race that they did in Long Beach
a bunch of years and I ended up winning that
in two thousand and four, and that was like, I
can't explain to you the joy that that brought me
crossing the finish line first, and I was hooked. But
(04:13):
even then I didn't know how I'd become a professional driver,
but kind of I guess I was lucky in the
sense that I got offered a test by a team.
I was really fast. They signed me to a tier
development deal, and the next thing I knew, I was
a professional race card driver. So it wasn't something I
thought my whole life that I get to do. But
I'm so grateful that that small experience in the Pro
(04:33):
Celebrity race led me to where I am now because
I can say this, like, I've got to do a
lot of things in my life, and I've had a
lot of success, and I'm super grateful for all that.
But when I put my visor down and I leave
the pit lane, I truly feel like I'm doing what
I'm supposed to be doing, and that's a pretty cool
feeling to have.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I'm a big priorities and capacity guy, and so you
got to kind of select what you want to do
and then how much of it can you actually give
Where in your life was that pivot point where racing
became a priority that you could give capacity to and
it wasn't acting and now you're committed to racing.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Well, Malcolm n did in two thousand and six, and
that was my first year two thousand and six was
my first year as a pro driver, and you know,
so I'm kind of leaving Hollywood in the height of
my career, right I remember calling my agents and managers
saying like, hey, I'm going racing and if I'm going
to compete against the best drivers in the world, that
this is their life, Like I need to compete like
(05:32):
that as well. I can't do it as a hobby.
I can't do it on the side. I can honestly
say like racing right now is one hundred percent my focus.
I'm doing everything I can every day to be as
prepared as possible. That said, we are about to start
filming the Malcolm reboot during the season. I have a
three year old, i have a wife, I'm building a house,
(05:52):
and I'm trying to figure out that balance. I'm trying
to figure out, you know that maybe sometimes it is
okay to say no to certain things. I've never been
that person. I've always been like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll
do it, that I could do, that, I could do it,
and just trying to make sure that I'm I'm giving
one hundred percent to everything I'm doing because I don't
want to look back at the end of the year
and go darn, I could have tried harder. I wish
(06:14):
I didn't phone that in. And I'm trying to also
still be a good husband and a good father, and
it's it's definitely tough.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
I feel like life is flying by. But I also
have learned in my past that when you have opportunity
like I do, like this full time season in NASCAR
and Malcolm coming back, like those aren't things that are
going to be around forever, right, so I need to
make sure I take advantage of that opportunity and give
it my all.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Just a couple more racing questions, What is that toll
on your body whenever you get out of the truck
after the race.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I mean, I'm I'm definitely beyond exhausted. I mean I
trained really hard. I'd probably work out, you know, like
two hours a day. I do a lot of cardio.
I'm trying to lift a lot of weights. My heart
rate in the race car never really drops below one seventy, so,
you know, I kind of to put it in perspective,
it's like sprinting uphill for two and a half hours
(07:15):
in a one hundred and sixty degrees on, you know
what I mean. So it's extremely mentally and physically exhausting.
And I'm definitely spend. I am a lot older than
a lot of the other drivers. I'm thirty nine. Most
of the guys in the truck series are eighteen, nineteen twenty,
And I see them get out and they don't even
(07:36):
have a beat of sweat on them, and I'm like,
I don't get it. But it's definitely extremely physical. And
that's one thing I'm really trying to focus on is
being as prepared as I can physically before I get
in the car, right, So like doing whatever training I
can to make sure I'm ready. So I know, I
don't want to like get towards the end of a
race and be having a good run and just be like,
I'm so physically exhausted I can't turn, you know what
(07:57):
I mean. So I'm trying to get in better shape.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I read get a pilot's license. Are you just an
adrenaline guy in general, or just like a trap automobile.
I don't even know how you compare the two. You
just like to go places and things.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
You know, It's funny. I don't consider myself an adrenaline
drunk junkie at all. Like I sure I race cars,
Sure I do things that maybe people put in that category,
But like I'm afraid, at thirty nine years old to
jump on a skateboard, you know what I mean. Like
I don't like I don't want to get hurt, you
know what I mean. I don't know. I've never skydived,
(08:36):
I have no desire. I've never bungee jumped. Like like
when I think of things that like are adrenaline junkie things,
like if I think of like a Travis Pastrana, I
don't do any of those things.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Any of those the Travis Petrano he jumps out of
the airplane with no parachute. You ever see that clip
where he jumps and then they have to like catch
him and then and then lock up with them.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
I literally just was watching that literally the other day.
I saw it was on Instagram, and I was like,
I don't I don't even understand how you stab him
wanting to try that, But hey, he's awesome for what
he does.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I was reading about the Malcolm in the Middle revival,
and I think a lot of people in my ages
that were born in the eighties we all watched Malcolm
in the Middle loved it. But before Malcolm, like, how
did you get into acting? Because you were young something
you wanted to do and your parents were like, yep,
we'll help you, or something they kind of led you
to do because you had a lot of tendencies as
a performer.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
You don't as a kid. I literally did everything. I'd
go from football, the basketball to tap in jazz to soccer.
Like I my parents had me involved in everything that
I wanted to do, and acting was one of those
things that the same kind of racing. I hate to
say that, but like happened in a whim. My sister
(09:49):
actually did like a summer arts camp and they put
on a show at the end of the summer and
it was awesome. And I remember she was going to
audition for another play or something and she's like, you
audition And we were jumping on the trampoline and she
picked a song for me to sing, and I showed
up not knowing what I was doing, and sang and
it was for Christmas Carol, and I got the part
of Tiny ten. The second rehearsal, an agent came up
(10:13):
to my parents and was like, hey, I'd love to
represent him. And send him on auditions for commercials and
movies and and really from that day forward until Malcolm
ended in two thousand and six, like it took over
my life. I never I never said I wanted to
be an actor, if that makes sense. I loved it,
(10:33):
but it was the thing that took over I. It's
a weird thought, Like I never said I didn't want
to be an actor. I just like it was one
of the many things I did. So I it was
we were all kind of along for the ride, my
family and I. You know, it wasn't something that like
we we were lucky in the sense that we didn't
(10:54):
have to work too hard at it. It just kind
of started happening. And I never stopped working until, you know,
I just I had to go racing. And kind of
an interesting thing to think back at now. You know,
I have a with a son, and I want him
to be involved the same way in like all these
different things in sports and see what he really likes
and loves and and it's weird that like one of
those things can literally change his life forever, you know,
(11:17):
if he if he's good at it, or if he
gets lucky or whatever it may be. So It's an
interesting thought.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
When you talk about finishing Malcolm in the Middle and
you went right to racing. Then I wondered did you
have the resentment? Because some actors they got famous as
a kid, have resentment that they're only known for that
one role as they try to get other roles. But
I feel like if you went from one and you
straight pivoted, maybe the resentment wasn't there or wasn't the same.
(11:42):
Did you have it at all?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It actually didn't. I mean even remember like my agents
and managers back then being like, we've got to make
sure we pick the right movies in your you know,
during the hiatus, you know, to make sure people you're
not getting type casts, and and I was always kind
of like, well, I just want to do the thing
I want to do that I think will be fun.
But also I always thought if I were remembered forever
(12:07):
as Malcolm, you know, a show that everyone around the
world loved, that's pretty cool, you know what I mean.
I never shied away from it, like I didn't, you know,
I've always kind of been grateful for the opportunity I had.
I don't know, it's it's a you know, even even
these days, you know, we're about to redo Malcolm and
(12:29):
it'll be the you know, even though I've done some
acting here and there over the last let's call it
twenty years, it has it one pen my focus. But
I'm thrilled that people are really excited to see where
Malcolm and his family are. So the fact that like
I get to be a part of that is is
a cool thing. So I would never shy away from it.
(12:50):
I do understand why maybe people do have that resentment,
But I also think that a lot of actors think
the grass is greener on the other side type of situation.
Like there's a lot of actors who are on hit
TV shows and they go, oh, I don't want to
do my show anymore. I just want to do movies
and do different roles. And I'm like, I look back
at it now and I go, you have no idea
(13:11):
how lucky you are to be a a working actor
at all, but be like successful on a show that
people love, like take advantage of it. It's not going
to last forever. I mean maybe if it's Gray's Anatomy
and they're on like what season twenty three or something
like that season twenty four, But even then like, you know,
I think Ellen Pompeo. I think about it. I go, like,
you know, she has the easiest gig ever. She knows
(13:32):
the characters so well, she's making tons of money, she's
having fun, she sees the people all the time. I mean,
I feel like that's a great, a great gig.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
I think actors they forget that. When they first started,
they would do anything they could for free, right local theater,
Oh you needing in this commercial, I'll be in your film.
I'll do everything just to get the opportunity to work
on my craft and be an actor. And then all
of a sudden they kind of go like I want
to do bigger things and better things, and you know
they've forget that, like it can go away in an instant.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You guys are doing the revival on Disney Plus, can
you just come out the plot? It's going to be like,
what what's happening? Whenever everybody gets back together.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
I don't know how much I'm allowed to give, but
I've seen some like reports, not reports, but like news
stories come out like that kind of say what's happening?
But Malcolm, you know, obviously twenty years older, you kind
of you get to see where he is in his
life with his career and success. He does have a daughter,
and I think that's going to be a pretty cool
(14:32):
element for people to see. And the plot around the
story is it's Hall and Lois's thirty or forty year
and wedding anniversary, and they're trying to get the whole
family and everybody back together, and Malcolm is having a
hard time finding the time, and I don't know, there's
a lot of let's call it typical Malcolm drama that
(14:54):
ensues with the family getting back together.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I had three final questions, all completely random. One if
you're still if you are a wrestling fan, how'd you
feel about John Cena's He'll Turn? And if you're not
a wrestling fan, ig nor the question.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
I can honestly say, I haven't watched wrestling since maybe
nineteen ninety eight Classic.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Okay, that's me. I'm the one, and I don't feel
good about it. Okay, so I'll answer that question. Number two,
Dancing with the Stars. I know you did the show.
You finished third, so you made the finale episode. Did
you feel like you would win that season while doing it?
Speaker 3 (15:29):
I never thought it was even a possibility. I remember starting,
you know, they asked me to do that show for
ten years and I was like, no, I don't dance,
it's not my personality. Put myself out there like that,
like I don't know, and I finally did it, and
I loved it. I remember like once I started realizing,
I didn't want it to end. So like I worked crazy,
(15:50):
crazy hard, and I don't think anybody ever put in
more time than I had at that point rehearsing. But
I just had a good time. But I remember even
being at the finale, you like, you know, you do
the dress rehearsal like in third place, and they do
like a fake third Place. I was like, I'll let
me know where I need to go because like obviously
I don't deserve to be second or first. And I
(16:11):
finished third. So I was thrilled to have made it
to the finale because I got to, you know, perform
all the weeks that I possibly could and all the
dances I possibly could, but didn't didn't think I expect
I definitely didn't expect to win.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Did you keep a relationship with Jane or Brian Cranston
through the years after Malcolm.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
I talked to Brian a lot. He's just always been
one of those people that always reaches out and checks in,
and I love that about him, Like he's definitely my
my role model as a as a human in general,
but especially as an actor. And yeah, he's always been
so supportive of whatever it is I'm doing and and
(16:51):
and shown up. I've talked to Jane a few times.
I'm really excited to get back on set with everybody,
you know what I mean, because I feel like it's
like a I always I always explain Malcolm or like
doing a show, or at least for me, like summer camp.
You go, you spend all your time with everybody, You
have an amazing time, you make amazing relationships, and you're like,
we're gonna be best friends forever, and we're going to
(17:13):
write each other every single day. And then you go
back to your life and they go back to their life,
and maybe you're write a few times and then you go, wait,
five years has gone by, ten years has gone by,
Holy crap, it's been twenty years. And I'm excited to
see where everybody's been and just just to get to
rekindle those friendships and those relationships. And it's my goal
(17:34):
to be a better friend this time around. Once the
show's over.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Craftsman Truck Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway tonight
at nine pm Central on FS one. Hope you get
in your peloton, you get loose. I hope you're feeling good.
Do you feel like you're getting better? Like, because again
you're more reps, you get better, Like you said, you've
had some some top ten finishes. Do you feel like
you're getting better?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You know, racing is so it's such a mental game,
you know. Last year was rough. The prior year I
almost won the championship. I felt really good. I felt
like I was learning, I felt like I was doing
really well. So it was easy to show up every
week and feel like you could win. Last year was
the opposite, Like I felt like I couldn't finish a race.
We had a lot of mechanical issues and a lot
of problems, you know. So just having those first two races,
(18:23):
even though we had a bad wreck in the last one,
we were running really good. We were where we want
to be competing, and that feels good. So it's kind
of a case by case basis. The highs are so high,
the lows are so low, but you really kind of
have to forget each race and just kind of focus
at the task of hand. But I can say those
(18:43):
good finishes help with my confidence, make me feel like
I can do this. I can compete against these guys.
You know. I'm you know, because sometimes you have self doubt,
you know what I mean. And it's not easy. It's
definitely not easy, but I don't know. I'm trying really
hard and I want it more than anything.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I We're rooting for you. Hey, Frankie, thank you for
spending some time with us. Good luck tonight and we'll
be watching you man, have a great evening.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Thank you so much to you.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Get your Bobby bones on. Let's spend the selfish wheel.
All of our names are on it. If it lands
on you, you gets talk about whatever you want. It can
be the most selfish thing, something we normally wouldn't talk about.
It doesn't matter. Here we go.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Let's spend.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
All right, it's me. I like talking about playing pick
a ball.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
You know what, I thought you were gonna go alien,
So let it rip, hey with aliens, No, dang it.
So I tried to get in a pick a ball
tournament last weekend. I know, and I tried on like
Tuesday to get in the one that was on Saturday,
and it was full already because they don't have them
all the time here in town, and I couldn't get in.
(19:59):
So then I call the place and I was like,
can I get in? Then I called their boss place
that was running now they couldn't get in. And so
I put myself on a list of if a pick
a ball tournament opens up in the area, hit me
up because I want to go play. And I don't
even know how good I am really because I don't
play against people that like keep their own because there's ratings.
There's like three point oh three point five, four point oh,
four point five, five point oh.
Speaker 6 (20:20):
Was like, pro if you had to rate yourself.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Good question. I'll come back to that because I don't
really know. But so I got an email and I
was like, Hey, there's a pick a ball tournament. It's
in like two weeks something signed up, paid seventy bucks,
nice boom, got in. It's three hours away. I'm not
going to that three hours away Memphis. No, it's in Like,
so't go to Memphis. You play and they get robbed? Yeah,
(20:43):
I mean you play against you prize money, get robbed
on the way out. Yeah, it was some weird turn,
like like, it's not Columbia is that far away.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Columbia is not too far. It's an hour and a half.
Yeah maybe yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
I signed up for a tournament three hours away, and
I'm not driving three hours to go play a tournament.
So I guess, like I said, I don't really want.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
It, I'll take your spot.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
You you never played, I.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Know I'd be hilarious. Your rating will go way down.
I don't have a rating. I know what I'm saying,
but you'll start out loose. You'll get the easier petition.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
You wouldn't be my name. No, no, no's how it works.
So you sign up in a tournament, like I was
going to sign up in a three point zero tournament
to play singles because I don't know what that is.
And I played with a friend who I'm friends with
his wife, and his wife's like, hey, my husband plays
all the time, like four times a week. So I
invited him over to play and I beat him. And
before I beat him, I was just like kind of
feeling out what number he was, and he was like, yeah,
(21:35):
I he was just playing like four point zero tournaments
and then I beat him. Now, I don't he could
have been having a bad day, but I was feeling
pretty good about myself. And I did twist my ankle
a little bit. Uh oh, but I didn't say it
because I wanted be one of those guys that gets injured.
So we're playing best at three. I win the first one.
He got me on the I twisted my ankle in
the middle Amy sobortion on her computer see Selver segments. Guys,
we had pay attention to Lunchbox. I'm looking up Lunchbox
(21:57):
was doing his stupid stuff about all.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I'm looking up where your tournament is so I can figure.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Out how far to drive off a segment.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
I will say I spaced that when Lunchbox was talking.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I know, I can't even know you did.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
You can't do that, actually, interested in your rating anyway?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Spend the midle again, your ankle like just to I
heard it at the end of the first game. I
lost the second game, but I tried so hard not
to favor my ankle because I don't want to be
the person who's like, I'm injured, I'm losing. I hate
that person.
Speaker 6 (22:27):
That's Eddie.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Excuse me when when have I said.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
That you get injured often?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I broke my arm, well in your foot, But the
difference is he doesn't play with it, or he doesn't
not have an injury and fake like he has one
for when he's getting beat, because people will do that too,
they'll be getting beat. They'll be like, oh, ankle. I
don't want to be that guy. Even though I turned
my ankle a little bit and so I just tried
to hide it, and then I ended up winning Game three,
really fought back from adversity again. They should option that
(22:56):
Disney Plus. But now I'm just kind of wondering what
level I'm at, and I still got to go play
the guy for a thousand bucks in Cleveland. We have
an attorney that's coming on twenty five whistles on Monday
to make sure we can set up an escrow legally
to put the money in. We can't say it's a bet.
It has to be a competition.
Speaker 6 (23:08):
Why do you have to put it in escrow?
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Because I don't trust giving this whole this dude hold money.
I don't know that he doesn't know you either, so
he doesn't know that we're not scamming him.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
Oh well, I'm good for it, scammer.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Every scammer said scared, Yeah, we got it.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
Okay, so you put it in escrow.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
So we have an attorney.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
So on Monday's twenty five whistles, he's on with us
talking about how he's not my attorney. He is a
I don't know him, but he's going to do it
and it will be even for both sides, because I
don't want to get scammed for a thousand bucks. I
paid this two thousand bucks to hold the money. I
get up to Cleveland to play him, and then I
(23:47):
don't even get the money.
Speaker 6 (23:48):
Yeah. So how do you get your rating?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I think you play in tournaments?
Speaker 6 (23:52):
Oh you can't just but I mean if you had
to guess.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I don't know what how to do that?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Let me.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I mean I can look it up.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
Like in the Karate Kid, he just told him he
was a black belt when he really was just trained
by mister Miyagi.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
How do I get a pickleball rating? Okay, self rate
using us A Pickleball skill assessment sheets, or participate in tournaments.
Here's a self rating and that says self rating. Use
a USA Pickleball Skill Assessment sheet sends you back.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
It was weird.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
I'm running in circles here, Uh, how to find your
pickleball rating? I'll do like three more minutes of this
because I can tell one of my selfishness. Really nobody
cares about it.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
I do have questions. I experienced it.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Can I tell you what a four point is. It's
understanding and performing pickleball. Can rate all of them.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
One point oh player has never played and has no
skill set.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
That's lunch.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's a fear one point oh player. Two point and
you can be in the middle of it. Could be
a one point three apparently one point eight. A two
point zero player is just starting to play and has
no other sports background. Two point five player has a
limited experience, can't sustain a short rally, and it's still
learning all the rules. Three point zero player understands the
fundamentals and basic rules as well as court positioning. They
(25:12):
can construct limited points. Three point five player knows the
differences between the hard and soft game. They can get
to the non volley zone consistently, and are beginning to
understand the benefits of stacking. They may have an unrelated
sports background that may help some with new skills more quickly.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Do you understand.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
I'm at least three point five. That means how to
hit the ball.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
You know, okay, you know the difference.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
You know the difference hitting the ball hard or soft
dropping it over softly?
Speaker 4 (25:45):
And what about the stack? Even the stack?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
You know, wh iking in doubles. I don't only play a
lot of doubles, but stacking can be if for standing
on the same side on the serve and then you
both jump to different places. I'm left handed. We stack
a little bit sometimes, just because left handed people have
big disadvant and the occasional advantage depending on court four
point zero players able to identify and attack opponent's weaknesses,
(26:06):
is aware of their partner's position on the court, able
to move as a team with their partners. This is
mostly doubles. What's five? They have up to eight? Oh
my god, yeah, I'm not I'm not that yet. I'm
not pro yet. I'm trying to go pro. But anyway,
I sign up for a stupid tournament, paid seventy bucks
and now I can't even go just three hours.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Do you get the money back?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Is that money gone?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I think, as a wise man once said, money gone?
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Sorry? Oh yes, what was the prize for that tournament medal?
Like no money?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Oh the guy I played, I don't think no no
prize money. The guy played one silver medal like a
week ago.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
That's cool, but so like, do you like a metal ceremony?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I never been to a tournament, dude, Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Just wondering what you're going there, like, because I mean.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
I'm just going there to beat people.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
And do they have a sign that says this court
is for pickleball three point ers? And then the people
are four point zero?
Speaker 1 (26:54):
So it's like, em it's like a tournament where they
I don't think it's signs because there's so many people
playing at once, but I think they're like, I've never
been to a tournament. I tried to go to my
first one. I couldn't get in.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
You play one in town, I'm going, But now you're in.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Do we go in? Like, have no short on the
right that could be on your chair?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Percent We'll all do it.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Would be awesome.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Your mouse in your pocket, I'll go.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
You have to wear a sports broad right on your belly.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
That's how they do it, Bobby, Yes, oh yeah, we
could do b oh b b Why.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
And then I lose on a one point.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
How do you think you would handle losing?
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Fine, because long I'm still in the tournament. No, I
mean you lose double eliminations.
Speaker 6 (27:30):
Okay, you're double eliminated. Like, how would you handle that?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
I would shake hands, say hey, great game, walk out
of the place, get in my car, drive home, and
then punch myself in the face.
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Like this is where I get worried, like adding another
thing to your plate to get all worked.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Up about it. I need something to get all worked
up about because I need to put that energy somewhere.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Okay, all right, you have to get work.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It's that or UFC. You guys picked.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
You might die if I was going to pickle ball.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I'm one point.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
But also he did say if he loses, he's going
to punch himself in the.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
I might get myself a u FC invertent and you
print yourself interesting. One more here, let's do selfish will Oh, yes,
well you didn't win a prize. This is big, okay,
selfish will go ahead. Guys, I have gifts for you.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Yes, come on, you need these gifts, Okay, Can I
please give you this gift?
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (28:28):
But look at me, look at me and be honest.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
This is going to be stupid.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
No, it's not stupid. Well where is it you know
in high school?
Speaker 1 (28:34):
If you're giving us a gift on the podcast, on
the show, this is going to be stupid.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I mean, you have no gift with you because it
just randomly came up on the wheel, so you don't
have it with me.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I'm sure he has it, but I'm sure it's gonna
be something we have to do for him. Go ahead.
It's not for me, Go ahead, but it is for life.
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
I brought you guys gifts. Let me go get him
a filibuster, both philibuster what.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Oh, I know he's gonna go get I know he's
going to I think I know what he's gonna get to.
Don't say it.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I've never ruined the surprise. I'm not a surprise. I'm
not amy.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
I'm not gonna spoil it.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Oh my god, they're plants.
Speaker 6 (29:11):
I wanted one of these. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
This is a product.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh remember my show and Tell, which I had that
planetarium thing.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Whatever I got, like, my gift shouldn't be have to
do work. No, it's not work. It's not work. It's
however you want to do it.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Can I put my energy drink in there.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Oh, that's the experiment. You can try what I want
to see. I gave you guys plants. So these are
Japanese money plants. They came originally from a plant I bought.
I took the leaves off, I put.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
Them in water.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
They grew their own babies. So you guys have the babies.
There are three babies, Amy, Bobby Lunchbox. You guys have
these babies. It's up to you to keep them alive.
You want to give them energy drinks. See what happens. Hey,
maybe you get the biggest babies out of all of them.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
How much sunlight does it?
Speaker 1 (29:58):
I don't want to do work.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
It's not work, dude. It's your baby. It's if you
want to take care of it. You can take care
of it.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
How much sunlight does it need?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That's up that's up to you.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
I mean it's your You need to no, no.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
No no.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Once you give a gift, it's no longer mine.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
This is you all.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
What is it called Japanese money?
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Yeah? Money and lunch user.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Would you like to have a Japanese money plant? I
don't want it to die. I would like to give
it to a better home. I basically put it on
the steps of the fire department.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I believe that if you have something to care for,
take your mind off other than many things to care for.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
I have not a money plant, I have two dogs,
I have a wife and have all you need.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
But this will be representative of like, if we can
keep this alive and nurture it, it'll represent like the
little things we need to like we need to remember
to water ourselves and give ourselves air and sun correct.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
And it's really.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
It does need sun. But I feel like these lights
are kind.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Of like so much.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
I feel like these lights might harm.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
This is not a gift.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
Well, then you know what, take them home, take them home.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
We have take them home by a window.
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Why it looks pretty on my table.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
They're beautiful at least.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
And then what if these plants have a little anybody
hit it, dump over. It takes forever to get the
carpet cleaned.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Anyway, the good news is this is a member of
the stinging nettle family.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Perfect.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
I love to be stung by fan. It's soper easy
to look after this remarkable little plane. It's a true
beauty with its rounded, dark green leaves. It is perfectly
shaped to add a little bit of interest to your
indoor jungle lunch box. Being such a popular little guy,
we've written a little all you need to know God
on how to honor your plant.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
He's calling it a little guy.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
This is very is what the article.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
I didn't call it.
Speaker 6 (31:39):
But why is one of the little circular plant leaves things.
It's on lunchboxes. It's already dead.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Yeah, a that that's kind of why I give it
to lunch box. It's kind of like when you buy
something and there's like a stale cracker in there, like.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Oh, they love soaking up some sunshine. But in the
summer months, just be careful not to leave it directly
exposed to sunlight. It'd be such a same shame to
scorch this gorgeous greenery. Oh man. Watering, of course is
very important.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Water is important. That's it's a plant. I don't know
if you did this to be nice or as a joke,
or to torture us.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Why would you think I would do this to.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Torture I have no interest in plants.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
This is me being nice and sharing my love for plants.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Only water once a week.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
This is nothing, dude. They're so low maintenance. It's like
a beta fish. Those guys don't die well.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Actually the one calls that, oh no I killed.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Don't let the soil go bone dry. It'll be unhappy
with you.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Rate your gift, guys, out of what I don't care,
ten go ten, ten, I go ten.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Out of one, I go zero.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Thoughtful. He had to take the plant and reapont it
for us and soil bring it up here.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I'm telling you he's just trying to get out of
his house.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Plants in my house here is what's it called?
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Repurpose propagation, Yeah, propagating.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
I'll give it to one out of have any ten one.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
It's so I don't.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
I don't plan, and I also don't feel like his
intentions appeared.
Speaker 6 (33:06):
Feel like his intentions are. I'm very curious because like.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
What fun of us when it dies? So it can
be like I can raise a planet, you can't. It's
a superiority.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
I'm not.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
You for killing his plan.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Don't I got nobody a butterfly.
Speaker 6 (33:19):
It's not my plan thinks that way.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
I don't thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Amy, who's playing is it?
Speaker 4 (33:23):
And it's not my plane? It's your plan now, So
it's on you if you want to kill it.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
I don't want to kill it.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
I probably will go ahead, dude, you want to kill
your planet.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Kill it.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It's going to spend that great life with its foster parent. Abby.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
You let your you're playing the foster system.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
And I'm putting it. That's something you should know about
and you should appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (33:43):
I do.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I mean, I don't appreciate it, but I think you
should keep it.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
One other thing and thank you for the gift.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Man, I don't feel thank you for that. Sorry, thank
you for the chore.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
He's like Lunchbox said, you want to it once a week.
It's nothing, but.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
It's the gift that keeps on giving because if you
take care of it, you could prop get it.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
It's the gift that makes me work more and more
and more.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
I can't, but it's rewarding and very rewarding.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Hey, thanks Eddie, You're welcome.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
And that's my hope. Like I think, I typically kill plants,
but if I keep this one alive, it'll be rewarding.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
You can do it.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Try.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
I'm gonna try. That's why I gave it a ten.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
And he said he thought he saw you driving the
other day or his exact words were, I think I
saw a cougar.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
No, no, I saw a cougar in car that Amy drives.
And I was like, is that Amy?
Speaker 6 (34:27):
And it wasn't me.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
I don't know, maybe it was you.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Are you saying she's a cougar? Well?
Speaker 6 (34:30):
What is that? Why why would you say I'm a cougar?
Speaker 5 (34:33):
You know, you see people in cars and you're like, okay,
that's a young college kid.
Speaker 6 (34:36):
That's a So now you see me and I'm like
the older I mean I am. I'm turning forty four
next week, so.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
That'd be cougarish.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
We are are?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
So he said he saw a cougar and I was
like where, And he goes, well, I could have been
Amy in a car. Did you go to a.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
Hardware store on Wednesday? The parking lot?
Speaker 6 (34:54):
Nope? What hard like?
Speaker 2 (34:55):
What hard like?
Speaker 4 (34:57):
A big one?
Speaker 3 (34:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Well there's not like two big like that.
Speaker 6 (35:02):
No. I wasn't at home depot that Wednesday?
Speaker 4 (35:05):
Did in your car?
Speaker 1 (35:06):
So were they in the parking lot?
Speaker 4 (35:08):
They were driving like I was driving past them god,
And I was like, oh okay, that Amy, Amy?
Speaker 5 (35:14):
And I was like, well you know what I'm going
to ask if that was amy it was not, It's
not okay.
Speaker 6 (35:19):
I do have to go to home depot.
Speaker 1 (35:20):
Is that offensive that he thought you might have been
a cougar at first? Was it offensive?
Speaker 6 (35:26):
I think at first? But then when I really think
about my age, I then I guess take it as
a compliment because but I don't know. I'm not with.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
That was that.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Was a long time ago. So then if if if
you're not with someone younger, are you still a cougar
or is it just.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
I think it's just the age, right, I think you're
a cougar if you're open to the possibility of No.
Speaker 6 (35:54):
I thought this was a cradle robber.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
No, no, no, No, cred robber would be if the person's
like nineteen twenty oh.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
I thought that was just anyone younger.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
That's like a cradle robber would be like a dude
with somebody who's nineteen twenty eighteen, nineteen twenty twenty one.
A cougar is just somebody in their forties and up
who likes men in their mid young mid mid twenties.
Speaker 6 (36:16):
I had no twenty man. If let's say it was
me a look, but I'm not on the look. I
have a boyfriend that's older.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
No, no, I hear you now, But I'm saying, Eddie
thought it was a you were you look like a
cougar like you were looking like you were on the
hunt for a young man at the hardware.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
Store looking for a man?
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Are you getting like, sirs? A lot? Now?
Speaker 6 (36:42):
Really? All I get, mam, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Man, it's terrible, man, it's terrible.
Speaker 5 (36:46):
Ma'am Hey man, are you using that cart? No, sir,
I'm not. You can take that, sir.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
Oh yeah, ma'am, Miss missus Brown, miss Brown, just call me.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
It's so sad, man.
Speaker 5 (36:58):
It is a weird like time in your life where
like no one called you sir, and now all of
a sudden they're calling you sir.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
It's interesting you don't at all. I don't. I think
my glasses hide my age a bit.
Speaker 6 (37:07):
Well, I'm getting and that's it me too.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Well, mine are so thick though, you can't see any
age in the eyes.
Speaker 6 (37:13):
Yeah, okay, that's I'm going to get some.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
And also I'm if I'm not here, I mean I'm
a bit peter Pan dress wise. I wear sweats and
cutoffs like I have all my hair. I have all
my hair.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
That's helpful like that, so do I.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah, but you're a woman, you're cogar.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Yeah, when you're checking that dude in high school, it
was like they knew your son.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
No.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
The average parents spend sixty seven hours a year negotiating
with their kid.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
Now no negotiations, excuse.
Speaker 6 (37:44):
Sometimes there is not in my house. Wow, it is
a blanket. You don't mean let them? Isn't a case?
Speaker 5 (37:51):
It depends if it's like a big, big, big ask
or whatever like, then we'll talk about it. But if
it's just like, come on, can have coke?
Speaker 2 (37:57):
No?
Speaker 6 (37:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Yeah, Well you ever change your mind on a big
ask if you've said no, Not if you've said maybe,
but if you've said no, have they ever convinced you
to change your mind?
Speaker 4 (38:06):
There is a uh what do you call that?
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Like a system where you go down from like all right,
there's the first answer, first response, Then my wife and
I talk about it, and then he pleads his case.
Speaker 4 (38:17):
Then we go back and talk about it.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
So he talks first, though, so he'll talk to you
and your wife or just you or just your wife.
Speaker 4 (38:22):
Sometimes he goes straight to my wife.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
First, okay, and then you will talk about it together
behind closed doors. Mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (38:27):
Then we'll make a decision what do you think and
then we kind of tell him and he'll be like, no, no, no,
but but what about like I.
Speaker 4 (38:32):
Really think this?
Speaker 5 (38:34):
All right, we'll think about that, and then we go
back and think about it, and then that's the final decision.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
And it has changed where if you've said no, but
then you've talked with your wife, she has convinced you
to listen a bit more, and you can come out
of that room going Okay, I'm a bit more open
and change your mind.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
Yes, yes, And but it usually ends up being kind
of like, all right, let's try it for a couple
of weeks and see what happens.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
But if you can prove that you're able to do
this and it's all good, then we'll move on.
Speaker 6 (38:58):
Yeah, without whining. That's what I say to my kids, like,
if you want to present a case, that's fine, but no,
no whining.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
I don't want to any more details because.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
If they're like, well why can't I do this? Or oh,
if it's like if there's any whining a part of
the case, then the case is thrown out. But if
you want to because I think it's just good practice
for them. If you want to put together some reasons
and some facts and why you think this should be
go for it.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Is that like staying out later or going somewhere like
what what generally? I mean because you're.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
They was run recently with my daughter who's seventeen. I
don't I haven't talked to her about talking about this,
so I'm not going to say that the topic. But
she put together a PowerPoint.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
That's awesome. She's in I don't evenre what he does
want to do drugs? Okay, PowerPoint it is you nailed it.
Do all the drugs you want because you follow through.
Speaker 6 (39:50):
Yeah, yeah, I mean so she had something. We were
pretty much like no, but then I said, should present
a case?
Speaker 1 (40:01):
Make surely? Maybe that I don't think. So here's the
power point. You know what, you made a good point?
Yeah it was you know what you did. You've really
delivered in a way I didn't expect that was good negotiations.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
She actually had points and valid My kid just says,
I'm like, oh, you can't do that. Why I know.
It's so frustrating because you're like, why I decided it's
not a safe decision to do that why, and then
it's just like, oh my gosh, they just say why
a hundred times, and you got to safety.
Speaker 6 (40:24):
Is my top concern.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Like if he launched a power point in response like five,
I'd be awesome. Oh right, what it was? Candy all
day breakfast? Launch handwer He did a PowerPoint? Sure? Uh.
The average momberdet spends a lot of time battling their
kid over things like food. They strike up to five
bargains a week dinner as the meal kids pushed back
on the most vegetables, and then they go into a
(40:46):
lot of specifically food things. I don't like vegetables. Anybody
have those.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
I have one that just doesn't eat, like, doesn't want
to eat. The other three they love to eat.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Doesn't want to eat to prove a point or.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
Just I don't know what it is, but he just
doesn't want to eat like you.
Speaker 6 (41:03):
Like.
Speaker 5 (41:03):
Even what I used to do was just say like,
all right, you serve your plate, because at first I
would serve it or my wife would serve it, and
then they wouldn't eat it, and we'd may like finish
your food please, and then we're like all right, fine,
if you think that's too much, next time, you serve
your own plate.
Speaker 4 (41:17):
But whatever you serve yourself, you have to eat.
Speaker 5 (41:19):
Then he'd do like one French fry and like like
a little piece of a burger, like come on, you
have to eat. But it's just a thing, like it
doesn't want to. He's always the last one at the table
because he's not done.
Speaker 1 (41:29):
Eating, because not that he's not done, because he doesn't
want to be done, just doesn't really want to eat.
Amy you your thing?
Speaker 6 (41:36):
Well something that I mean, we struggle with vegetables, but
Sisha is wanting to add more. She does not like
a lot of them, but she's she has desire. Now
that she's getting older, she gets that like, oh I
feel a certain way if I eat this, or I
eat that or don't eat. So she's trying to add
more vegetables. Stevenson will open up the fridge and pull
out a box of mixed greens or lettuce or whatever
(41:58):
and just stick his hand in there, put in his
mouth like a rabbit. It's awesome. However, he also loves
sugary cereal and there's this one that I buy and
they get to have every once in a while. And
the other day he made a bowl because he had
permission to eat it. And then he got done, and
I saw him reach for it and fill up another bowl,
and I said, oh, nope, one bowl and I got
the At dad's house, they get to have to oh.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Day and I.
Speaker 6 (42:23):
Said, well, oh you're not at lucky for you. You'll
be there next week.
Speaker 4 (42:29):
Woad.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
That's good, got him back.
Speaker 5 (42:33):
My kids like to do the everyone everyone has whatever
fill in the blank. And I'm like, okay, well then
i'll go to your school tomorrow and I'll ask everyone, well,
well not everyone, Well you just said it.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
I just went once ye at school. Even if everybody
did my school, then they go. The one that I
have to have with my wife is no onions. I'm
the kid I don't.
Speaker 2 (42:51):
I hate onions.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
She's like, you won't even see them. I'll cut them
up so small. They need to be there when she cooks.
They need to be there for the taste. I hate onions.
If I see one, I'm not going to eat anything.
I'm seven and she's like, you will not see a
single onion. If I see a onion. I'm like, I
see an onion and she's like shut up, and I'm like, well,
I'll go to my dad She's like, you don't know
your dad. Good point.
Speaker 6 (43:10):
Dad doesn't make me eat onions.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
Yeah, but you're like my kids. I mean, no one
is my wife.
Speaker 3 (43:15):
That is true.
Speaker 6 (43:16):
Your dad doesn't make you eat onions.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
I hate onions.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
You even grilled.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
My dad didn't make me do a dang thing. He
didn't make me eat onions. He didn't make me do homework.
He did make me feel safe or loved, he didn't.
We could do this all day, boys and girls. Thank
you guys. Hope you had a great weekend. Be sure
to check out on Amy's podcast. What was the thing
you were doing this week on your podcast?
Speaker 6 (43:39):
Oh, like a short list of self care things, because
you know, I just did that weekend away with my
kids and my ex husband And one of the big
themes was simple things we can do as a family
if we ever need to reset. And so it's four
different ways just to check in with your emotions and
reset if you need to. But like, have you ever
heard of dopamine dressing?
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I know what dopamine is. I've never had that with
my turkey.
Speaker 6 (44:00):
Yeah, no it's not. It's dressing like when you're getting ready.
Speaker 1 (44:03):
I'd love that dope me dressing the turkey though. That awesome,
sounds good.
Speaker 6 (44:06):
Yeah, but there's it's science, and you know, colors can
go into it too. That colors, like if you wear
a certain color, you'll feel a certain way. But then
also just knowing what feels really good on you, and
if you go in your closet and if you have
a go to or you can like figure out outfits
that you just feel your best in when you look
in the mirror, when you show up at work wherever,
(44:26):
you get a hit of dopamine because you feel more
confident and you need those dopamine hits. So that's just
one of the tricks is trying to figure out that
in your closet, and then different methods and techniques and
tools you can use where you don't need anything, like
you don't need a pin, you don't need a journal.
You can just do it anywhere. Like I did one
of them with my kids the other day and it
totally reset us and it was great.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
This is me when I look in my closet, Kayla,
what color is this green? Never mind? What color is
this blue? Okay? Does this red match with Arkansas hat?
That's not red? Okay? That's me and my closet, everything
with every single You.
Speaker 6 (45:04):
Probably feel your best when you have on your red because.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
It's like a dope. It's a dope, it's a dope
pit in the closet, just dope. I'm a dope because
I can't tell what color anything is. Thank you guys,
have a great weekend. We will see you Monday. Bye everybody.
