I loved Little Spoon.

I fed it to Veda and I also fed it to Raya as they were growing up.

I wanted to find a baby food that was wholesome, had great ingredients, and I was super excited when I found Little Spoon.

And that's the end of the third.

Time to set it back to 78 from 4 to 9 p.m.

What a performance by Team California.

The power is ours.

Welcome back, you guys, to another episode of Kate and Ty Break It Down.

Welcome, welcome.

As we're talking about, Rick Tyler wears my pants.

Which is a weird question.

I know, right?

Wait, what?

Who are you thinking?

Okay, I'll be honest with you.

You don't really wear pants.

I hate pants.

I never wear pants.

And I don't know if that's like an age thing or something.

Like, I just don't like wearing pants.

They're not comfortable.

You're never in pants.

I don't ever see you in any other fabric other than like leggings that kind of like

comfy material.

So when I see you in jeans, I'm like, whoa,

what's happening?

I like my Hilara bell bottoms.

I know, know, bell bottoms are what?

I mean, I don't understand what's going on with them.

Are they, are they back?

Are they a thing?

I mean, they're selling them, so they must be a thing.

I don't know.

I've just always liked bell bottoms.

You ever see those TikToks though?

People going into Target and seeing stuff from when we were kids?

Yeah.

It's weird.

I know.

It's like really weird.

I wasn't sure if there was anything specific that you wanted to talk about this week.

I know that as far as like life updates,

the kids are out of school for the summertime now.

Last day of school is today.

Yep.

I am, you know how happy I am.

I bet you are happy.

I am so happy.

Yeah.

I don't have to get up in the morning and get these kids.

Yeah, exactly.

They wake me up.

They wake me up.

Oh, you know.

Yep.

And then I'm the one they always want them to put them to bed, too.

Well, hey, listen, we're not in school.

There's no, I mean, I can put them to bed.

Here's the thing, though.

I put them to bed, and it doesn't get you out of putting them to bed because then they just ask for you to read a book.

dumb.

Like, no, because especially, like, Veda is,

she's our early riser.

Like, that she is up at like 6.30 in the morning, and that is just not my cup of tea.

And people are like, well, why don't you just keep her up later?

And I'm like, that does not work.

We tried.

We tried.

It doesn't work.

No.

People are like, oh,

whoever said that keeping kids up later makes them sleep longer?

Not my kids.

Not mine.

It never works.

But Vada's the only one.

Like, Noble will sleep in, Raya sleeps in,

yeah.

The older she gets, but and so for people that don't know, like, the school that the school district that we are in, the end of elementary school is fourth grade.

So, after fourth grade,

weird, yeah, it was weird at first, but it's weird.

I'm used to, I'm kind of like, I've talked to a lot of parents and stuff.

But what do you think about a 4-4-4?

That makes sense.

Yes, but so after fourth grade in our school district, then they go over to the middle school and then it's fifth through eighth grade, And then they go to high school ninth through 12th or whatever.

So I went and picked the kids up from school today because it's the last day.

It's like, woo, summer break, summer's here.

And Nova gets in my car.

You know, Vada's all excited saying bye to everybody out the window and stuff.

And I look at Nova and I'm like, are you okay?

And she just starts sobbing.

Nova.

Sobbing.

And then she's our emotional kid.

She is.

She is.

She's emotional.

She's an empath for sure.

She is.

And then, so she starts sobbing.

And then I start crying because my kid's crying.

And then Vada's in the back seat just looking at us like we're crazy.

And she's like, why are you guys crying?

And she's like, mom, why are you crying?

I'm like, I'm crying because Nova's crying.

Vada's like, it's the last day of school.

Right.

And I think for Nova, she's just like, you know, this was my school for four years and all the teachers.

And, you know, like, I'm never going to see any of them again.

Really wrap my head around the fact that she's going to be in middle school, though.

I know, but it's not really like, it's like, yeah, she's going to the middle school building, but I've talked to lots of parents.

No, they're switching classes.

Yeah.

They're going in the big kid lunch line, but only with fifth graders.

I know, but still, it's it's the sole opera, it's the same operation, yeah.

But I mean, I remember when we

well, I remember when we first moved out here, and it was weird to me, like, what?

You're gonna put fifth graders with like eighth graders, like, let them keep their innocent separate.

I know, I get it.

Well, yeah, but I, you know, but and that was just through talking to like other parents in our area.

And then, um,

you know, there's a gentleman that I speak to at the, because his daughter does dance or whatever, and so when I'd be there for cheer, I would talk to him, and he worked, he works at the middle school and stuff, and then so that made me feel better.

And then, obviously, when we went to go see the middle school, the novel too,

dude, she was so stressed out about her combination.

I think everybody does that, though.

Who doesn't?

Who doesn't when you start having combinations?

I remember being freaked out about that.

I was like, go to the left, and she's like,

I'm like, the left.

I know, remember, she was like, this is my left hand.

I'm like, no, no,

I guess I forgot.

No, like,

she's, she'll get it.

Once you get it, you get it.

Yeah.

But right now, that's like the thing that she's deathly afraid of.

I guess I was too, though, but I had to, when I went to middle school, I only had one day.

I had to go to the very last day of orientation that was available, which was the day before school started.

Oh, okay.

Like, what the heck, Ma?

Why didn't you take me when?

So I had one day.

I had to get that little fake combination.

They let us bring it home.

Oh, did they?

Remember they let

the lock?

had like we had a lock that was went through the thing.

No, we didn't.

Yes, I had a lock.

You had a lock?

Yes.

I remember just being on the lock.

Yes, I had a practice.

They gave it to me for a while.

Oh, oh, because you were so anxious about it.

Yeah, also, it was because I was the last kid.

I was like, dude, I was like, I, I just, you know, yeah, so I got a lot.

Yeah, so she's freaking out about that.

And then Vada thought, she's going to just be doing kindergarten again, you know.

So, and then Ryle will be in full-time preschool next year.

Five days a week.

Babe, I don't know what what I'm, I don't know what's going on.

They're getting older.

I don't know if I can handle this.

I know.

Raya's going to be gone all day.

Like,

how many hours?

I think

8:30 to like 2.

Oh, my God.

32, something like that.

Yeah, I don't know.

But it just makes what makes me feel good about it is we know the teacher.

I know, you know, and Raya loves it.

She loves it.

That's it, babe.

All of our kids are done.

I know.

We're not going to have any kids in the house.

I'm excited.

Part of me is excited.

I don't

A part of me is a little excited, but then the others.

Yeah, but then mom can like, you know, do things she likes.

And, you know.

But so, yeah, so summer is starting in the Baltera house.

Yeah.

And, um, oh, it's already started too.

Yeah.

They just like, swim.

Dad, you got to teach me to swim.

Oh, gosh.

Dude, give me a minute.

And that sounds like 65 degrees outside.

I know.

Where is our summer's not even here?

Michigan is sucking this year.

And I think, I think, I mean, what are we even going to do this summer?

You know, like, we.

We're camping.

We're camping.

Yeah, we do love to camp.

I already booked one.

Great.

I just power washed the camper today, ready to roll.

I know you were out there power washing, and then I was online looking at campground spots.

So I was like, I'll go in two days.

All right.

It's ready to go.

I know.

I'm going to go.

I was like, I'll camp then and then I'll camp, you know, when we go with our friend Amber, too.

Did you buy any?

Yeah, I was looking up at...

The one we always go to.

Okay, good.

Sweet.

And they had a bunch.

They had a bunch.

But I was looking like, well, I'll clean my camp rock tomorrow and I'll pack that bitch up.

Yeah.

It's ready to go.

I went in there today.

It looks great.

I mean, a little sweeping, sweeping, whatever.

Yeah, okay.

But yeah, power washing for four hours was like, dude.

Yeah, you're crazy.

What?

I had to go to the bathroom.

I would have drove it to the campground.

Oh,

you want to go to that?

You're like, oh, we can just go with this green-filled.

It's got stuff on it.

It's a camper.

You camp in it.

Guys,

anyone out there knows.

I'm not pulling into a campground with moss.

I'm not moss on it.

Little pieces of moss.

You know what I mean?

It's under the tree.

All the moisture.

Yeah.

Oh my God.

You're fun.

That's funny.

You would have pulled it with moss.

I'm not pulling no campground with moss.

I was a single mom.

Yeah.

Hell yeah.

Moss trade.

Here we go.

Beep, beep.

No, you got to power wash it.

Yeah, I know.

You didn't power wash the top of it, though.

I still had.

I listen.

I got.

Well, we're going camping in two days.

Okay.

Don't.

I got it.

It'll be.

Well, remember what the other day when your mom was going camping.

I was like, I'll go tomorrow.

I'm like, we're not going to go.

Let's chill out.

Well, no, because I think what, well, last summer kind of sucked.

We only camped one time.

Yeah.

She just was rough.

But no, well, the year before that, she was rough.

Last year, we took her camping one.

That's why I was so nervous to go.

Yeah, and she did great in the camp.

But see, we never, it's the camper.

It's different.

I know.

So that makes me nervous.

We have no enclosures.

Yeah.

We have no doors.

It's just the bow of bunk beds right next to our bed.

Which makes me nervous.

I mean, I'll make her crawl in bed with me.

I don't care what we'll end up with both of them.

Because Vada will be like, hey, I'll go above the driver's seat.

Oh, right with Nova.

That's where Nova always sleeps.

Yeah, because Vada wouldn't let that fly.

She'd be like, you're letting Ryan

in your bed.

I'm coming too.

But you know what's weird, though, is I noticed that, like, we don't, we just camp.

Yeah.

I mean, when you think about it, like, we don't.

And beach and go get a sleep.

Yeah, we go to Florida once a year with the kids usually.

Or even just the beaches around here when it's hot.

I'm trying to think of like vacations that we do with the kids.

Camping.

i think it was the ages though like now raya is a at an age where she's like we can we can do it yeah you can go on an airplane with her and do things like that i mean we've just been able to go to a restaurant for the last year and that's been nice it has been nice it has been nice sometimes they get a little you know they're kids so sometimes they they get a little crazy but i don't really some things i'm like i don't know whatever oh yeah my kid wants to meow at the table or meow i don't right

yeah you don't leave him alone yeah but yeah isn't that funny like we had such like like young kids for so long.

It's like, I'm not going out to work.

Yeah, people were nuts, dude.

I'm sorry.

You guys are crazy.

No, we did it.

We try.

We try.

We try and it's a disaster.

Salt.

Oh, gosh.

Yes.

And it was never fun.

But yeah, she is.

She's getting to the age now where you can go places and

she's good and she has fun.

Yeah, which is great.

It has been good.

Yeah.

So I think, yeah, just camping and

Nova starting riding lessons.

Vada still does her gymnastics on Fridays.

So I just wish Michigan would warm up.

It's getting there.

Just give it a second.

You know how Michigan is.

Dude, no, this is bad.

It's already June.

I know.

It's fine.

It's going to get there.

Just give it a second.

You only have two more months.

July, August, and then it's back to cold.

Like, I'm

like Michigan weather.

I just want to be somewhere where it's like...

Where you want to move?

Sometimes I think about it.

I just want to be somewhere where it's like just nice and warm all the time.

Like Hawaii.

Yeah.

Okay.

I mean, listen.

perfect time.

Everyone would want to live in Hawaii.

I don't know, though.

I'm not getting stuck in the island.

I know that part is scary.

I'm not messing around.

There are enough cows here for milk.

Are there enough beef cows here for beef?

Are we have enough?

But you know what I mean?

Like someplace where you could live where it's like nice all year round.

What, mid-country?

I don't know.

I don't even know what exactly.

I don't know.

I like northern things.

You like this winter?

You like being cooped up in the house?

Okay, winter is like, ugh.

But like, I'm not going down in the sky.

And then you have Michigan like this, where it's like freaking June and it's still 60 degrees outside.

That's ridiculous.

Just give her time.

No, she needs to get it together.

Mother Nature, just do its thing with Michigan.

She needs to get it together.

Last year, it was hot as hell out, and we were like camping in the woods.

Or that was like two years ago, maybe.

But whatever.

Anyways, it just needs to get warm.

I'm sick of it.

It's happening.

There are parts,

and then there are B-Pro auto parts.

Parts built for every vehicle.

Parts built to fit and function.

Parts that are refining how we drive and redefining the category.

Because every vehicle is a sum of its parts.

So do yourself a favor and put B Pro Auto parts on the vehicles you service.

Parts now, parts into the future.

Welcome to the new aftermarket.

Would you move, really move if you thought about it, like really thinking about it?

I mean, who the fuck do we got here?

I know, I know.

Nobody helps us.

Nobody wants to hang out with the kids.

Nobody wants to do anything.

You know what I mean?

It's just me, you, and the kids, anyways.

Well, it's weird, too, because I think people don't get like, I mean, they watch a show or whatever, but like they don't get like, I mean, we don't, we are never not with our kids.

No.

We're with them 24-7, three, six.

You know what I'm saying?

Yeah.

I mean, every once in a while, like your mom will take one of them or two of them.

Maybe.

Yeah, anytime that we're not with them, we're usually off on a trip doing something.

Or if they're going to grandma's, we have one or two here still.

So.

Yeah.

whenever we do leave them, it's like working.

Yep.

Basically, working.

I was going to say the only other time was the last time I had to officiate a wedding.

Yeah.

And even that was like, I mean, I had fun.

I love Arizona.

It's one of my favorite places.

But,

yeah.

And that was, and that wasn't even our vacation.

It was a vacation, but it wasn't like.

Yeah.

You know, me and you haven't been on a vacation just together in a long time.

Just me and you?

No kids?

Oh, man.

Long time.

Holy crap.

Yep.

After a while, though, I mean, I know other parents got to be out there that, like, you just kind of

not this year.

What do you mean?

Like, not this year.

Just not this, maybe next year.

Cause it's just like you get so with the kids.

Everything's.

It's like, when do you ever get enough babysitters lined up for three different kids for multiple days with that have multiple different activities?

Like, how do people do this?

I'm curious because what's happening.

It's hard.

But I'll tell you what.

Like, I look at just for instance, like our kids and stuff like that.

Like, when our kids have kids, like, I'm going to be a very involved grandparent.

You know what I mean?

Like, because I just

will remember how hard it is when you're in the ruts of parenting.

And absolutely, I will take all three of them.

You got five of them.

Bring them over.

You know what I mean?

Like, I'm going to make sure.

Yeah.

We'll do something.

Obviously, I get like spending quality time with one of your grandkids at a time or whatever, but like, I feel like I'm going to be a super involved grandparent.

And I've seen seen a lot of millennials talk about how a lot of this generation's grandparents are just not super involved interesting i wonder what is it because i don't know like why is that though because they're okay let's think about it if they're what are they gen x or something what what's what's our parents oh god i don't know

their parents were raised them

so because my mom said she was at her grandma's all the time they always they always went over there for all the events and all that kind of stuff so okay

yeah and it's weird.

What happened?

What happened?

Did it skip?

Did it just like?

Yeah,

I don't know, but it's like, I'm not going to be like that.

I'm not either.

I can't wait.

You know, and same thing, like, because with my grandma and grandpa, my dad's side, I was there any chance I could get.

I'd love going to my grandma's house, and my grandma was like, absolutely come over, you know, and I would hang out with them or whatever.

So I don't know, but I'm going to definitely be like, probably, my kids are pregnant, but like, mom, you need to go home.

But I'm here just making you dinner.

Go home.

Right.

You know what I I mean?

Go home.

I'll just go cook dinner.

But I think it's important when your kids start having kids to remember how parenthood can feel.

Isolating and just yeah, and that you're on Groundhog Day repeating the same day over and over.

And it's sometimes, you know, some days are very, you know,

mentally

or mentally draining or whatever.

Like, I think it's important for grandparents to remember those things because.

If you can help your child just take time for themselves, that makes them a better parent.

Even if they just swoop in for like 20 minutes come in here and just pick him up go get them a french fry and a milkshake or something just real fast that doesn't have to be nothing crazy no not at all just swing by and just

play with them I don't know do something

like just come here so I don't know I just yeah because I do think like I think it's healthy for parents to have like just a reset i feel like that makes you a better parent it does you know like when you're feeling just

drained and emotionally just tired and you know overstimulated Just a nice reset.

It's like you feel like a million bucks coming back in your life.

You literally just let me go to the store and get like a coffee or something.

Yeah.

And just with nothing screaming at me or nothing.

At this point, I just want to pee alone.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Like, can I just pee?

Mom.

Straight up, though.

Like, you know, you don't see kids like busting in dad's bathrooms.

They're just like, but mom's taking a pee.

We're in there.

We're washing our hands.

We're looking at her pee.

Ryan's like, good job.

You know, I'm like, I'm just trying to pee, dude.

I mean, I guess, like,

here's what's weird, though, is that we'll never, our grandkids will be the first our babies.

Not our babies, but you know what I mean.

Like, our genetics coming in in another form.

Yeah, because we're not having anymore.

Yeah, so it'll be.

That's why it sucks, Raya, doing this.

What, going to school?

Yeah.

I mean, it's funny if I like, I'll just make a little schoolhouse.

I'll just take school.

Just for Raya, the title.

She's going to be so spoiled by no, no.

Yes, she is.

You see her lately, her attitude's coming in, and it's coming in, it's coming in full force.

She's not bad, her attitude.

You hear her scream at me

as you say, she's sweet.

Yeah, you hear her scream at me, or like lately, when Beta goes to the bathroom before bedtime, and then Raya will be like in the room, like getting toys or something.

And every night, I'm like, All right, Raya, come on, let's go potty.

And she goes, Hold on, one minute.

I'm playing.

Like, I'm like, Raya, come on hold on I'm like no dude come on or she'll just like

I can see it more her um what her attitudes coming out like her

and Vada were playing in the bathtub after school today and um Vada got out and I was like that's fine Raya you can stay in and play I don't care and then every like 10 20 minutes I'd be like hey do you want to get out and she would scream

I'm like I'm not saying you have to I'm not saying that you have to get out I'm just asking if you want to get out

so yeah it's it's coming It's coming.

I don't see it.

Of course you don't.

Oh my God.

You are going to be an enabler.

No, I'm not.

No, I'm not.

Oh, you're not?

No.

Yeah.

She's sweet.

She says thank you and please.

No, she is sweet, but I'm saying, like, it's going to come.

It's coming.

When she doesn't get what she wants or, you know.

She's the baby.

You don't, you're not just because she's the baby.

You're not supposed to feed into that crap.

Well, she is the baby.

I know, but she still can't be

mean or, you know,

disrespectful as she gets older, you know?

Right now, she's...

Don't let them.

You can't let them.

You better put your foot down.

You too.

What the fudge, man.

You have to, too.

What the hell do you mean?

Not with Raya yet.

She's so just like a baby.

So, yeah, she'll be in school.

Yeah, five days.

I am not ready for this.

I think a lot of parents can relate to that.

Like when you have your last baby and you know it's it's your last.

I think there's a lot of parents out there that struggle with them growing up, you know?

You have them with you all the time.

They don't ever leave.

Raya, yeah, literally.

Yeah.

Raya's more listening at all times, really.

So

I probably could count on my hand how many times she's not been at home at night.

It's crazy.

On both my hands.

You know what I mean?

Now she's going to be at school for that long and that many hours a day.

Doing big kid stuff.

Yeah, and then it's after that, it's school every year.

Ever, forever.

She's gonna be gone five hours, six hours every day.

I know, but she loves school too

They let me pick her up

Well, we're screwed now.

I'm what 33?

I'm not having

I'm just talking dreamland.

I'm right at every

you do it too.

Yeah, I do it.

Yeah, I do it.

Don't you just think?

Yeah,

but she but she also she I mean all of our kids thankfully have loved school which help helps a lot.

Yeah, that's true.

Um actually they all get up great too.

None of them are like I've been waiting for an open.

You'll see it to a teenager.

Oh, five,

it's probably going to come.

But eventually, your own alarm.

I'm not messing around.

She has her own alarm.

She don't even use it now.

You're still going there.

I know, I do.

I don't know why.

I think that's sweet.

You wake her up every morning.

Always rub her back.

Hey, good morning.

Good morning.

No, that's sweet.

Yeah, it's nice to wake up like that.

I feel it.

Oh, God.

Yeah.

Well, that's the worst.

I know.

And then you have people like me that'll snooze.

Oh, I swear.

Oh, God.

I love sleep.

Honestly, if sleep was a competitive sport, I would love it.

You and your dad would definitely win.

Me and my dad would definitely win.

You and your dad would win.

Yeah.

I've never met anyone who took more naps than him.

Oh, my dad?

Yes.

And it's always been ever since I can remember.

I know that.

I always took a nap.

Remember, I thought, I was like, oh, it's just as I get older.

No.

People take naps.

Then your sister Ambrose's like, no, no.

He's been doing this since I can remember.

I said, what?

How?

At least once a day.

Yeah, but who?

How?

How?

No, I could take a nap.

I'll take a nap every day.

No, but I know, like, I mean, people would if they could, but you can't because you have, like, oh, I got to do this, I got to do that.

True, like, where?

Where do you have three hours?

Two three-hour sessions, two two-hour sessions in a day.

That's four hours.

What do you, how do you have four hours to spare?

Yeah, I don't.

Well, my dad, well, when I was like younger and stuff, I'd be like once a day.

Yeah.

Only once a day.

What, like one two-hour session?

I don't remember.

I don't remember how long.

But yeah.

It's crazy.

So, like, if sleep wasn't.

I guess that's different.

I never, never not I cannot tell you if I've ever saw my mom napping ever really ever dude.

I love nabs.

I love sleep period.

Plus it's just like ugh.

Especially when I feel like you

fall asleep so fast.

Like I'm like, I wish I had that quality.

Like literally, it'd be like two minutes and Tyler's already twitching a million times.

I'm like, how does somebody fall asleep this fast?

So I feel like for me, it just takes me forever for my brain to shut off.

You meditate and you eventually go to sleep.

What?

Like, you just like

consciously

breathe.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

I feel like that would still be my brain's thinking too much.

I'm telling you, just try it.

Have you ever tried it?

Like, literally, just you can't stop though.

You can't go, oh, this is stupid.

It's not working.

You have to just keep doing 10.

Is that what you do?

One, two, three, four,

yeah.

Oh.

I mean, not all the time.

I don't have to do it no more.

Now I just know.

No, dude.

You're out.

You're out behind you.

You're just like arm around.

And I'm out, dude.

But like, literally, sometimes it's like 30 minutes.

Yeah, but I can't fall asleep if you're not around.

That takes me a long time

long time.

Yeah.

Like, I have to tuck my arms all stupid and weird.

So, I wonder if me and my dad just don't, like, we can sleep.

We're just not sleeping good.

Like, maybe you should do one of those things.

Doesn't matter how many of us do those things, that little test.

Yeah.

Because,

no, I think you're sleeping good.

Because you're snoring as you get older.

You do too.

I do.

No.

I swear to God.

No, no.

No, you're lying.

No, you do.

No, no.

I'm not lying.

No.

Why are you saying no, no, no?

Yes, you do.

Yes.

Yours is more of like a no way.

I swear to God.

No, I'm not lying.

What?

It's not like super loud, though.

Give me an example.

That's pretty intense.

What are you talking about?

No, it might be too.

It's very quiet.

It's not like super loud.

Yours is yours.

Is a hungry bear.

That's exactly.

You are.

But it's only when you're laying on your back.

It's probably because my tits are suffocating my jowls.

Yep, I think it is too.

Yeah.

I think it's laying down.

I just need to get them chopped off.

I keep talking about it, and I just need to get them chopped off.

Well, babe, just do it.

Why?

What's the big deal?

I mean, I know it's a big deal, but still.

Yeah, it's definitely a big deal.

But I guess it's just, you know, you know how I am too, though.

I feel like I've always been like that.

Like, Like, I don't like people having to feel like they have to take care of me or I feel guilty if people like

feel like they have to take care of me.

Oh, my God.

I mean, I get it.

I understand that.

I mean, but still, what?

Just chill.

What do you do?

You can't walk if you can't walk.

You know, you're forced to.

So I say just jump the gun, do it.

Because once you wake up on the table and you're like, oh,

you're going to, you can't go back.

Oh, I know.

Yeah.

So you're, you know, so you can like, like, I think making a big, you know, scary dream nightmare about what it's going to be afterwards.

It's like, just do it, and then you're

going to do it, I guess.

You know, you can't go backwards.

Yeah, then exactly.

It's already done and it's done.

So guess what you're going to do?

You're going to be in pain and you're going to be sitting up and you're going to be doing your thing and

eventually you're going to be fine.

Fine.

You just know that it's temporary.

Jeez.

What?

I don't know.

Just like, you know, scares you.

Yeah, like I want to do it because I'm just like, my boobs annoy me.

Because I'll be honest, the last, what, four or five years,

you can't find a brand, a broad.

I mean,

you've shopped and you've like had 8 million kinds.

Wow, I'm like, where do I get these knockers from?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Because I guess my grandma Lola doesn't have like big boobs.

Nope.

My Mimi kind of does a little bit.

I don't know.

Yeah, where the fuck do they come from?

I don't know, man.

Maybe they like skipped a generation.

Yeah, they did.

You know, I don't know.

You're a Nana or something.

Great Nana.

Maybe.

Nana, do you have some big ol' knockers?

You know, so I'm like, where did these come from?

I don't know, but they're annoying.

I hate them.

They just annoy me.

Listen, I've heard so many of the girls write and say, hey, it was the best thing I ever heard of.

I know.

I know.

I know.

What are you most afraid of?

Just going under the night?

Like, going under?

The aftermath.

Okay.

No, the under is great.

No, I'm just saying some people are scared or they're freaked out.

No, I'm not afraid of like anesthesia or not.

All right.

Well, I mean.

Because if I would die, then you better sue them, motherfuckers.

Well, yeah.

Okay, good.

So I ain't worried about that part.

What about me, man?

Oh, yeah.

I mean, like, I'm not afraid to die.

Like, you know,

I feel like these, they're trained in what they do.

I'm not messing around.

I, I,

I, I hope, I, I, I hope our souls did some kind of weird recruitment before coming here.

I'm not bearing you or any of that.

Oh, yeah, I would hope hope so, too.

I don't want to do that either.

Dude, I looked stupid.

And honestly, like, they'll be fine.

They'll be older.

I'm assuming that they're going to be older when this happens.

Right.

You're going to be fine.

Veda thinks everybody just dies at 90.

So.

Well, I told her.

I mean, I did tell her.

Yeah, Veda lately, she's like obsessed with

death.

She's like, when you're dying and old and whatever.

I mean, I feel like it makes sense.

You know, she's

six.

Yeah, I mean, I guess you're right.

Six, right?

Yeah, she's six.

Yeah.

I was thinking she's someone who's.

I know.

Um, but I feel like that's normal.

Like, she must have heard about dying somewhere.

Maybe who know?

Well, I remember one time she said somebody in her school said their grandpa died.

Oh, yeah, that's right.

That's what it was.

So, you know, I think it makes sense.

But then she was just, like, very obsessed with, like, how do you die?

No, she got upset with me saying, mom's going to die.

Oh, you're going to die.

And I'm like, yeah, one day.

But she said, eventually, one day, not today.

Right.

You know, know, hopefully not today.

Then it hit me.

Cause like, yeah, because you have to be 90.

And I'm like, well, no.

And she's like, what?

I'm like, you don't have to be 90.

I said, you could be very young.

You could be four.

And she's like, what?

I'm like, ah, I'm like,

I got myself totally screwed.

And like, I was like, I just had to be honest there.

I'm like, listen, I could go outside and a rock could just hit me in the head from the sky.

Right.

And I'm out.

That's it.

I'm dead.

I could fall down these stairs and break my neck

right now and die.

And I feel like Veda's little brain, like, she doesn't, like, when you're trying to have an over, like a

complicated, like, conversation, do you notice almost like she doesn't fully understand?

Like, it's hard for her to understand things.

What's up?

Do you ever get that sense?

In a way that, you know.

No, I know.

But do you ever get that sense from her?

Like, when you're trying to have, like.

I notice that she gets, guess what?

Guess what?

Guess what?

In the middle of talking.

Oh.

Almost like, shut up.

It's enough details.

Let me tell you what I want to say.

You know what I mean?

That's almost like when I put her to bed every night, mom, but mom, mom, um, um,

I hear it.

I hear it.

You know it's her stalling,

and you know, every parent can relate to that shit because they all of a sudden you go to put in a bed.

I got a pee, I gotta shit, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, my head hurts, I have a headache, I need medicine.

It's like that's why I'm the type of parent where I'm like, all right, we're all going pee right now.

Here's some water.

Tylenol just for ready knows, yeah.

He wants a melatonin, too.

No, just kidding.

I don't give a melatonin.

Are you sure I have allergy?

Here's the benadryl.

But yeah, they all, she always stalls it.

Always.

Oh, I hear on the monitor all the time.

And it's always like, nah.

And it's random questions.

She'll be like, mom, why do vampires sleep all the time and they're just like, what, dude?

What are you talking about?

And I'm like, Vada, I don't know.

I can hear you.

I hear you.

I don't know.

And I hear you desperately.

You're just like, I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

And then I'll be like, all right, I love you because this guy, but mom.

And I'll be like, Vada, I said, I love you.

I love you too.

Okay, well, it's time for, but mom.

What?

You know what I noticed, though, is that you have to keep saying, I love you, Vada.

But I love you.

Like, almost like, we're done now, right?

This is it.

I love you.

I love you.

And then once you, she won't say, I love you, too, until like.

Until she wants to.

And then once she says, I love you, too.

You're like, all right, all right, all right.

And then you close the door, but you sit there and wait.

I do.

I try to like.

I love you, Vada.

But okay, yeah, I don't know, Vada, but I love you.

Right.

And sometimes I do try to like answer her questions or whatever, you know.

But then the one night I was, I kept answering her questions at bedtime.

Then I was like, I feel feel like I was in there for 15 minutes.

And I was like, okay, now we got to go to bed.

You know, like, we can't be sitting here for 15 minutes.

But you use that, I love you.

You're like, I'm not leaving until you say it.

No, I have to say it to her for sure.

But it's like you guys are secret, like, telling that, like, I love you, right?

So she goes,

but I'm, um,

how long can I stall this?

Oh, dude, she's

something else, that one.

Yeah, she's intense.

Kid.

That's why I need so many naps.

Okay.

Just because of that one.

What's your dad's excuse then?

I don't know.

I should ask him.

Yeah, well, I mean, hey, they say that people are healthier.

Take more naps.

You're healthier.

I love it.

I did not want to wake up from my nap today, actually.

Ugh.

I was sleeping.

You thought you were going already?

Oh, well,

yeah.

Maybe you're right.

I think you should do a thing.

I think you should do the thing.

Because maybe I'm just not getting quality sleep.

Like, you know?

I'd be shocked if you weren't, but.

Because, see, I can fall asleep fast, but I cannot stay asleep.

If I am woken up by a noise,

a twitch, a freaking click,

just anything.

Right.

It's over with for me.

I can't get back in.

It's like once I leave.

And I feel like you, yeah, you and Vader are very, like, light sleepers.

Like, Like Vada falls asleep really fast.

Like when she's ready to go to sleep, like she falls asleep fast.

But like

she wakes up with the littlest sounds.

I've actually tried sneaking in in the morning to see how if I like if I can get away with it.

No, dude.

Oh, yeah, no.

And when she wakes up, she doesn't just like go, oh no.

She goes, bang!

Like, she's literally like,

like, she's electrified awake.

I'm like, good morning.

It's already.

And then, dude, you ever notice that?

Yes.

Like, she never wakes up like a creep.

No, it's like a a scary movie.

Yeah.

Bang!

Yeah.

Terry.

Point open.

Oh, my God.

I can't.

Is there anything you want to talk about this week?

No, I feel like you got something going on in that phone.

I feel like I feel the vibes.

What's happening over there?

I was just reading some of these.

What did you do?

Secrets Anonymous.

You know it.

Dude, this is my favorite part.

Oh, is the Secrets Anonymous?

Well, one of them.

Yeah.

I like the anonymous advice.

I don't know.

It's interesting to me.

All right, let's see.

Okay.

I accidentally sent a kitty pic to my dad.

No, no.

No,

dude, no.

Could you?

I would be mortified.

I would never want to see my dad ever again.

Dude.

Dude.

That, bro.

The other one was bad.

Oh, my God.

That poor

father.

Both of them, because I mean, you're dad of all girls.

So imagine.

What would you do?

And you know what's funny is that, like, you know that, like, most of the times these things aren't just sent without words.

And I don't...

Dude.

What would you do?

Would you just ignore it?

This is dad.

This isn't Dan, honey.

Like, what the fuck?

That sucks so

bad.

And admit, oh.

I would be mortified.

I would never want to see my dad ever again.

Because you know what?

Okay, because you know what's weird too is that you, because you know, I feel like when girls send stuff, it's way more like

pose and just situation.

Or what if it's just a straight-up kitty pig?

What girl is doing that?

Snap!

Here's my clam.

That's weird.

Usually they're like in the mirror.

You know what I'm saying?

Whatever.

So I don't know.

I'm telling you, I would never want to see my dad again.

Like, no, I'd be like, you would say, that's not mine.

Yep.

Nope.

Nope.

That's wow, that's bad.

That's that's really bad.

Isn't that bad?

Yeah, it's horrible.

I'm like, oh my god, this poor girl and this poor dad.

I don't want to come over for dinner ever again.

Or would they live together still?

Who knows?

Kids are moving out way later these days, so it's a possibility.

What?

All right.

Oh, no.

So this comes from another girl.

I found a thong under the sink.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Is this a woman's writing this?

Uh-huh.

I found a thong.

I found a thong under the sink.

I lived with my husband.

I later found out that they were my mom's.

What?

I have so many questions.

What?

No.

What?

Yeah.

So she found her mom's thong under the sink.

In her, in her husband's house?

Yes.

Dude.

Wow.

What a shitty guy.

You're going to fuck her mama?

It's happened.

I've heard of people like husbands

fucking their moms, fucking their sisters.

Oh, my God.

But imagine your mom.

You just ruined a whole family.

You just ruined a whole family.

I mean,

the mom did too, but still, I don't know.

That's just, that's, that's, dude, that's barbaric.

That's disgusting.

I would literally take my mom in the back 10.

And, like, we're throwing the fuck down.

Ain't you and my mama no more?

No, like, we are literally, we're fighting.

Wow, that is, that's mess up.

Oh,

what?

It said, my son's biological dad is on trial as I type this for murdering his second baby mama.

What the fuck?

I'm so sorry.

Yeah, that's really sad.

Wow.

Wow, that's intense.

What?

Oh, yeah, that's a sad one.

Poor kids.

Yeah, that's really sad.

Did they say kids or kid?

Son?

Oh, wow.

I snuck into my mom's bedroom as an adult and read her diary and found out that my dad's gay.

Whoa, dude.

First off, why are you going in reading your mom's shit?

Second off, how old would your mom be writing a diary?

I don't know.

What's going on?

Then you find out how to, how I have so many questions.

Like, I want to talk to them.

Well, I guess you would just say, well, actually, you don't say, I guess what do you say?

You don't say nothing, right?

You broke in your dad.

No, but my dad's gay.

Right, but you, maybe you could do it a way to get him out, get it out of him.

You know?

Oh,

like, lead him into it.

Because you can't just come out and say, mom, I suck in your as an adult.

This, damn.

She's.

That's crazy.

Why are you going in your mom's room and reading this stuff that's weird, dude?

I mean, yeah, your dad's being gay is crazy, but I think what you did is crazy.

Because honestly, as an adult, would you go in your mom's room at our best?

I think it'd be intriguing.

What if it's like old stuff about her life?

Like, it would be.

What if she's dead?

I don't know, but I'm that's what I'm saying.

Maybe when she's dead, you're gonna go through her things and figure things out, but not when she's alive, you're gonna sneak in her room like a little weirdo.

And as an adult, look through your and then see a diary, and you know it's a diary, and to speak, like, whoa.

I don't know.

I feel like I feel comfortable because it's my mom.

You creep?

Really?

That's creep shit.

Why?

It's my mom.

It would be intriguing.

Like, what if it was like?

I don't care if it's your mama, your brother.

I don't, you don't.

What that's so as an adult.

I get when you're a kid, you go, ooh, what's going on around here?

I would probably read my mom's diary.

You are diabolical.

Am I?

Really?

What?

Am I tripping?

I don't know.

That's crazy.

Like, I could see where it would be like intriguing.

I'm not even going to my mom's room as an adult.

I want to be in here.

I have no business being in here.

That's who's your mom like?

I'm old.

I'm an old grown man.

What am I doing in my mom's room?

That's because your mom beat that in your head.

I feel like she, though.

Maybe.

You know what I mean?

Right.

Like, not going into her room.

I never went in that woman's room ever.

I was scared to knock on the door.

This one's kind of, this one's a funny one, and it's kind of funny.

And I totally could relate.

When my husband doesn't match his socks, I just end up throwing them away.

So you don't have to match them.

But I'm like, that one's kind of funny.

Like, you're like, fuck this.

You don't want to match your own socks?

I'm throwing them in the garbage.

I've been sleeping with one of my best friends for over a year my husband does not know you better get your shit together and you better get your shit together quick that is crazy shit well i feel and i feel like eventually your best friend what the and eventually um all that stuff comes to light one way or another yeah you are setting yourself up for some deep shit it's the bad karma too you know what i mean

like that's intense i could never and sorry to be like you know you know i mean it's your life it doesn't affect me but i know for for me, I would never be able to sleep at night.

I know.

How do you do it?

How do you literally do something to that degree and you know, like, ugh, and then just go to sleep and go, I love you so much.

I miss you today.

Like, dude, how do you consciously,

how does your body handle it?

I guess is my, what I don't understand.

Yeah, I feel like I would be riddled with things like that.

Yeah, like, you're like, how do you even manage to go to sleep?

I don't know.

That's right.

How do you manage to even like

just leave your phone?

Like, just like mindless shit.

Like, you would be

constantly uh on edge walking out all the time.

And that's what I mean, too.

Is like, I don't think people think like when you're putting bad karma into the world, you get it tenfold.

And just because he doesn't know about it right now doesn't mean that he won't ever, it will eventually come out one way or another.

The stuff always comes out.

And what is the point?

This goes back to so many different things, though.

It's like you're not communicating somewhere down the line.

What's going on, dude?

Why, why, why are you screwing your best friend?

Why are you?

This best friend a girl or a guy.

Oh,

you know what I mean?

I wonder.

Listen, and I give it up to everyone.

Like, listen, the fact that you guys can be with people and stay in a committed, non-scary relationship with people that are by, like, dude, the fact that I got to worry about the whole world now.

Yeah.

You know, before the, hey, at least it's half.

I only got to worry about half.

You know what I'm saying?

You know, about you cheating or whatever, but I got to worry about the whole damn, everyone I see, you know, the whole damn world.

Like, that's wild.

I mean, that's crazy.

Yeah, and that's just, I wouldn't be able to, no, I would be full of anxiety.

Well, it's one of those things, too, where it's like, you're walking around with this knowledge that you know could just destroy everything.

Like you're, for what?

For what?

Like, yeah, why?

See, I guess it comes down to like, what is the intention for doing it?

Are you missing something at home?

Whatever it comes down to, you don't have to do it.

There's always something to do before that happens.

You talk.

You admit to yourself.

I mean, that's why I'm always like, listen, you have to say to the person, like, I'm,

I don't know if I'm falling out of love with you, but I'm really starting to like someone else and it's freaking me out.

You know what I mean?

Or you like, you come to your own.

Or you realize that as a person yourself and you say, I got to cut this.

I got to like you.

Right, right.

I'm feeling a little weird thing.

They need to like cut this off because it's going to grow into something stupid.

Like, you got to, at a point, you know, be accountable for the fact that there was a moment

that you could have stopped or a moment you could have just been honest.

And I feel like for the most part, if someone said, hey, I'm like, was truly honest and said, hey, I'm starting to like,

get weird feelings for the other person and I'm, and it's weird, just announcing out loud, making that person aware, I'm telling you, this wouldn't, this isn't going to continue.

Because then you're, you know what I mean?

Then it forces you to come to the crossroads.

And I'm assuming the person is going to be like, well, you can't hang out that motherfucker no more.

And I'm like, all right, well, I can't hang out with you no more.

And then you like, you, you, you know, I feel like if people were honest before anything happened, you probably would stop yourself from making a huge mistake.

Just

you're then you're forced to talk about it yeah and you're forced to kind of like

you know what is happening why are you feeling this way for this other person right and to think about it's got to be something here so let's figure this out and you say it out loud and it might be hard to do it like you know but you should do it

I mean, just prepare though.

If you say it out loud, you are never going to be friends with this person ever again.

Like, you can't be friends with this person or even talk to a person that you're admitting, saying, hey, I got a little thing thing for this person.

Right, no.

They're out of your life.

And I don't know forever.

I feel like it's your job too, as a person, and if you're aware of it, to cut it off right then and

you say, hey, I'm feeling this thing for this person.

So I cut them off.

Right.

Yeah.

Not going to hang out with them anymore or whatever.

Then again, though, wait a minute.

Oh.

What?

Do you just cut the friend off?

Yeah.

And then not say anything, though, to hurt the other person or make anything really cause that you're not going to be able to do that too because you're not going to be able to do it.

You're being self-aware of it.

Yeah, you know, and you're making the decision.

Why hurt the why freak them out?

Right, true.

Because then they're going to think, oh, you have the ability now to just like other people randomly and start feeling stuff for them.

You know what I'm saying?

Ah.

Yeah, I guess that's a hard one.

Yeah.

Or you just cut them off yourself and just be like, well, that was weird.

And just don't say anything.

Right.

And then your friend's going to be like, why aren't we talking anymore?

Why aren't you?

Oh, that sounds complicated as fuck.

Well, you just say.

You don't want to say that.

I don't know what you say.

You just say.

Our lives don't mix together anymore.

You're doing things I don't like, sir.

No, I'm just kidding.

I don't fucking like you anymore.

You know what I I mean?

I just realized you're a piece of shit.

Just fake it till you make it.

I don't know.

That's that's this one's crazy.

I would beat my daughter's.

I would beat my daughter's ass.

Wow, what'd you do?

When I was 18, I started sleeping with one of my dad's friends.

He was 36 years old at the time.

I probably beat his ass, too.

Fuck.

18, she said?

Yeah, and he was 36.

Fuck.

Yo, what the fuck?

I know.

Isn't that weird?

Like, I couldn't imagine just some grown adult.

Like, I mean, I guess I could because guys are.

No, he's a creep.

That guy,

that friend, that buddy, your dad's friend is a creep.

Is a creep.

Slide the arm underneath, under your head, left-hand tit.
