the air. So you want to do it long and hard,
long and hard.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Tang So I want to go all day.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Do you guys know of anybody who has any tattoos.
We're talking about tatoos, We're talking about lower back tattoos,
tramp stamps. I guess they're back, according to at least
one tattoo artist in Cleveland. So we're going with it.
We're going We're going with it. I believe it. Yeah,
but but they're back, So that's exciting, exciting. Would you get.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
One, yes, just not like low back.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
It would be like lower, Like I want to get
one from my husband, and it would be like lower
he can see only so he can see.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, I would do that.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
I want to do that.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
I told him I would do it if he gets
my name on him.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
I feel like that's your You're kind of asking for.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
It, you hate it all.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
I just I feel like it's kind of a bad omen.
As soon as you etch someone's name on your body,
I'd like I'm not saying anything bad is going to
happen in your marriage. But I just, I don't know, superstitious.
Yeah I am too. It's like, as soon as you
do that, and then God forbid, something does happen, and
then it's there, and now everybody else who goes there,
in the event anyone else ever goes there, it has
to see the same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
What about like a letter, I can get away with
a letter.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yeah, the next the next guy could be Jay, if
you need to make him Jay.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
I don't think I would ever get married again.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Oh yeah, yeah, but you'd probably have sex again.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Well, I mean, I hope so out.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
I don't know. I I've told this story before too,
but I don't know if everybody heard it or remembers it.
But I many many many many years ago, like twenty
years ago, almost, I was messing around with this girl.
We were both you know, we're both young and dumb,
you know, just young and dumb. I was this young
dumb brother Fred with a blue faux haawk and just

(01:47):
running around this you know, Austin, Texas, like I was
the king, making twelve dollars an hour and thinking I
was rich. It was crazy. I wasn't even make him that.
But anyway, so I dated girl, small town Texas. Girl
had just moved there to the big city Austin, Texas
and whatever. And then we kind of we were just
hooking up, and then we stopped for maybe like a year,

(02:09):
and then I was leaving town. I was moving to
Charlotte to do my first morning show, and I saw
her and she had a boyfriend and she broke up
with him, and I was like, hey, one more time,
you know, for the road, and she was like, yeah, sure, nope, yeah,
let's do it. So so we go to do it,
and and it's dark obviously, know it's night time, and
we've been drinking, and clothes are coming off, and clothes

(02:30):
are coming off, and then and then I ever, all
closed are off and then I kind of looked down
there and there was no hair anywhere, but I did
notice like a looked like a birthmarkers I mean, there
was like a something there that I don't remember from
the previous additions, the previous experiences. And I was like,

(02:52):
and I looked again, and it was a tattoo right
above where, right above her vagina where and if she
had hair there would have covered it. But there wasn't
any so there and it was a tattoo, and I go,
what is that? And then I looked a little more
carefully and it was a bow. It was a tattoo
of a bow above there. And she said, well, the

(03:15):
last guy who dated me didn't respect this, and every
man from now on will know it's a gift. Oh,
And I was like, huh. So every time you look
at that, you think of another Kui, and then every
time a guy sees it, you have to explain to
them why you got it out of spite about another
It's like, so we're this is all about another man.

(03:37):
You've essentially branded your vagina with another man, right, Yeah.
And so that's my issue with people who get tattoos.
You want to get a tattoo to honor a child
or a loved one or a parent. I get that,
you know, but you start getting tattoos like out of spite,
or you get trendy tattoos about something that's cool, like

(03:58):
right now, I don't know, I feel like you're asking
for it.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Do you feel the same about the tattoo on like
the ring finger? Yeah, if you don't want to wear
a ring, because.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I've thought about that I don't know that I would
want to wear a ring. And I've thought like I
could get like initials tattooed or something, or you know,
because it's not that I don't I don't have an
issue with people knowing that I'm in a committed relationship
or married or whatever. I just think the ring would
drive me nuts. I think i'd play with you know,
I'm a little ocd. I think i'd mess with it.
But again, I think you're kind of asking for it.
You can always get it taken off. I guess we're removed,

(04:27):
but I I you.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
You still hit it when she hit the bow on
her puck.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, I was there. I was already there. But you
know she's married now. I guess I looked her up
not that long ago and she's married and stuff. And
I just think, like that's you know, your husband at
once upon a time or every time or whatever, you know,
he knows that you got it. You were so scorned

(04:51):
by a man that you got a tattoo on your
private parts, you know what I mean? Like, that's that's aggressive.
Can you imagine the process, Like she had to go
in there and take her chonies off, right, you know,
and get branded I.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Wouldn't tell the story like, you know, like I would
just be like, oh, because it's a gift boo.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
I wouldn't say, yeah, yeah, we don't have to tell
the rest of the story. Yeah, I agree with that,
But I mean again, I think there are certain parts
of your body that are just so intimate that to
expose yourself to get a tattoo, like you must really
want it because you got to you know what I mean,
You had to go into a tattoo place and be
like okay, and then take your pants and your underwear off.

(05:32):
I mean that's I don't know, so I don't that's
that's a tattoo story that I'll probably never forget. But
I'm not sure that I've I don't think I've had
any other experience like that. Maybe somebody had like an
ex's name on them and then maybe they tried to
get it covered up. I've seen some bad tattoos. I've
seen some tattoos of silly stuff that people regret. Now,

(05:55):
you know, having as a grown up you have tattoos,
Do you regret any of them?

Speaker 4 (05:59):
I don't regret them, but they're terrible, you know what
I'm saying, Like I'm cool with it for the story,
but you just.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Didn't go to a reputable tattoo. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
No, Like I got a crown on my risk because
O Marion had a crown on his name, So I
got my name with a crown, like my own name
tattooed on my.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Risk with a crown. It's my name.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
But yeah, that was a really dumb tattoo, like that
was there was no need for that. And then I
tried to do like the memorial tattoo with the praying
hands and my mother's name and her birthday and and
death date, and I got the birth year wrong.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I got beyond the lyrics wrong.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
It's just wrong. You know, Hey, she understands.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
You got your mom's birthday wrong on your body.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Yeah, her birth year.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
My sister was like, I sent her the picture. She
was like, yeah, so that's the wrong year. But you
know you did that. You didn't run it by her,
sea I was sneaking and doing it.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
So it was just at a lot of dumb tattoos.
But you know, hey, they make you who you are.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
I guess, I guess does anyone else have any tattoos?
I do you do? Do you guys? Know, I don't
have any know, would you yeah, I think so what
would you get? I don't know.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
I wanted to get across on my wrist in high school,
and I'm glad that I didn't. Tattoo artists, like my
whole family went, Like, my parents all got tattooed. My
dad actually has my name and my mom's name on
his I love it.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
I love that your parents get tattooed. This is so
you your parents get tattoos, but you don't.

Speaker 5 (07:32):
Yeah, we all went there to get tattoos, and I told,
like the tattoo artists, this is probably who you should
have went to go see Kiki, Okay, because I told
the tattoo artist what I wanted and he was like, no,
you're too young to like get something that you can
see that easily, Like it was very old school, so
he like refused to do it. So I was like, okay,
I'll just go get it, you know, another time, and
then I never did.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Well, I'm glad I did it. And many of many
of you have heard this story. But uh, this is
before my sister got married. She had I don't think
she was no, she wasn't engaged because on this trip
that's where he told my dad and and me that
he was going to propose or ask for permission, where
he was essentially told no by my dad. Oh yes,

(08:12):
that was that was cool because they wouldn't have they
wouldn't have breakfast. I knew what it was about. And
they went and had breakfast, and then afterwards it was
he came to me and was like, well, can I
marry your sister? And I was like, well, what did
my dad saying? He was like pretty much, no, you
need to work. I go, that's that's between you and him.
And I said, whatever Amanda wants, that's that's my vote.

(08:34):
So you know, that is what it is. But but
on that trip, we were all supposed to get tattoos
of each other's initials because my cousin, I guess he's
a distant cousin because I don't have cousins, but my
fiftieth cousin or whatever it is, were twice removed, and
the hot skipping a jump over somebody else. He's a

(08:54):
tattoo artist. So we go there and my sister backs
out because she it wasn't Collins. Initials weren't going to
be part of it because it was supposed to be us,
the four of us doing it. So then she threw
a fit and wouldn't do it. And then I'm like, well,
if you're not doing it, I'm not doing it because
that was the deal. I didn't really want a tattoo,
but I'll do it in unity and solidarity. And so
my mom and my dad got them. So my dad

(09:17):
goes first and he gets ACA on his underwear, his watches,
like you know, on his wrist, top of his wrist
for my mom's name, my legal name, and my sister's name. Okay, cool,
Oh that's cool. Whatever. So my mom goes all right,
and then we leave and we're like at lunch, I'm like,
let me see it. Or my dad goes let me
see it. So he looks at it and all it

(09:38):
says is CA oh, and he goes, wait a minute,
where's my initial? And she goes, fuck that, I didn't
make you.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
So what we agree beforehand?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, well I guess, I guess. But again then she
decided the last minute. She was like, well, no, I'm
just getting my kids. I'm not kidting you. She wound
up going back I guess another time and adding his
initial because he was actually that pissed about it, But
that's my mom my mom. You know, she stood on business.
He was like, well, that's cool, you got me, but
I don't have to get you. And I don't know

(10:09):
if they officially, I assumely agreed on it ahead of time.
But then she went back and then she got my
grandfather's signature somewhere on her I think it's on her
other risk or something. But which I think is that
I would probably do something like that. I just don't
know where i'd put it.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
I like, yeah, I love getting the I think the
idea of getting someone who's pastways writing, I feel like
it makes you feel closer to them.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, yeah, I just I don't know. That's another thing.
I'm afraid I would like scratch at it all the time. Yeah, like,
because again i'm OCDS or I'm self diagnosed, So I
feel like I would look at it and ah.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
You think you would, you'd probably forget.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
But then there's my boyfriend who got a tattoo to
get free hot dogs for a year from the Wiener Circle.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Oh yeah, what is the tattoo.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Of It's literally the Wiener Circle logo.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, yeah, he has the Wiener Circle logo on his body.
The only tattoo he has, no, absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
No, he's covered. I mean he has a tattoo for
the office.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yeah, I mean like he on one arm was literally
doing like all Chicago, like he has like the lions
you know or whatever at the library.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
But yeah, no, he he fucking has a Wiener And
if you're the art museum, yeah, yeah those are cool.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
But yeah, if you are listening from somewhere else, the
Wiener's Circle is a hot dog place where their thing
is to like be rude to you if you ever
come order a chocolate shake.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
And uh, yeah, he got it on his body. So wow,
there's that.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
And did he go like every day and he hot
dogs after that?

Speaker 2 (11:34):
No, I don't think so. But I think it was
just like a fun thing to do.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
If I'm doing some shit like that, I I sure
as hell. I'm getting me my chuck. Yeah, give me
my hot dogs. I'm getting all my Yeah. Yeah. Does
he go there and like show it to him and
remind them he didn't.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah, he's like friends with them, So I think it's
like a funny bit. But he chose to get something
you know, that will be on there for life.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
I want to be friends with I don't go there enough,
but I kind of want to be friends with the
Wiener Circle Peoble. Yeah, they're very clever. They're sign is They're.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
All sign Yeah. Yeah, so where's that?

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Well, we can talk about the other I was gonna
talk about something else, but we talked about tattoos, so
I don't want to. I don't want to switch the topic.
Now is something totally different? I mean it is a tangent.
I guess we can talk about whatever we want.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
But do you think I'd regret getting one from my
grease trip? Because I kind of want to.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
What would it be of.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
That's what I'm trying to figure out right now.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
But it was such like a cool thing, and it
was like such a I don't know, I just wanted
a hero.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Okay, you should get a euro.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, I'll just get a big euro the iHeart. Yeah,
well girl, we just talked about the kids of death.
I want a job.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Well, you didn't have one. I thought they made everybody
get one. I thought back, Wait, they didn't brand you.
They branded me.

Sent me somewhere and I'm.
