00:01:41.080 We got a nice episode of, we got some Mother's Day stuff.
00:01:45.560 We're going to get into a little bit of light news.
00:01:47.660 And then we had a call a few weeks back about grief and loss.
00:01:53.380 And we had a lot of nice feedback calls.
00:01:58.020 And informative, heart, heart, heartish, heartfelt contributions.
00:02:05.340 So we'll get into those in a bit as well.
00:02:09.080 But yeah, Mother's Day, that's it.
00:02:12.760 Because your mom, people, your mama raised you.
00:02:16.520 Think about that.
00:02:17.380 But your mom, boy, you were, you was doing nothing.
00:02:23.840 Your little ass laying there.
00:02:27.080 Doing nothing, boy.
00:02:29.220 Hunting for a fucking hand tit.
00:02:30.980 That's all you was doing.
00:02:33.040 You was just hunting for that little hand tit with your little hands.
00:02:38.180 You was a little slurp lord.
00:02:40.700 And your mother raised you.
00:02:42.400 First of all, if something came up to me and started sucking on my breast,
00:02:45.960 on my tit or whatever it's called, tit for men or whatever,
00:02:51.120 I would not then raise it.
00:02:54.240 That is, you have to think about that.
00:02:56.940 If something started sucking on your tit, would you take it off
00:02:59.680 and then raise it and grow it to its full form?
00:03:04.940 Only a mother would do that type shit, boy.
00:03:07.780 That's some next level.
00:03:09.940 That's some next level behavior mothers out there.
00:03:12.420 With your ass, too.
00:03:14.800 A lot of kids never washed their ass.
00:03:16.700 We had a buddy.
00:03:18.040 His legs just knew his pants so well.
00:03:20.860 He wore the same pants always.
00:03:23.620 And so you knew good and well, so nobody was washing his ass, boy.
00:03:30.540 Not a chance.
00:03:31.540 Even his mom.
00:03:32.260 And she tried something.
00:03:33.160 You see her warm up some water on a stove in a stove pot
00:03:36.080 and to pull his pants back and just dump it right down the back of his pants,
00:03:41.920 hoping to even get a half wash or quarter wash on his ass with that warm water.
00:03:48.980 But damn, your mother, our mothers did that.
00:03:54.440 And when we couldn't read, imagine you sitting there with somebody, right?
00:03:58.000 And they can't read.
00:03:59.040 You know?
00:04:02.320 And you got to teach them to, you start with the first letter.
00:04:07.280 And you show them that.
00:04:10.480 And it's a picture of like an alligator and a little kid.
00:04:13.280 And the mom's like, what's that?
00:04:14.380 And he's like, lizard, lizard.
00:04:17.060 Or whatever.
00:04:17.740 He can't even say shit.
00:04:18.960 He don't even say nothing.
00:04:20.020 He just look at you.
00:04:21.600 And try to cop a quick hit off that tit.
00:04:25.240 That's a dumb child.
00:04:26.720 We were all dumb child.
00:04:29.560 My mother helped us out of that.
00:04:31.880 Out of that cavern of knowing nothing.
00:04:35.580 God.
00:04:37.020 They did a lot of work.
00:04:40.560 And then even on some, once you were in school,
00:04:43.360 when you had to go to school and take a test,
00:04:46.480 and you was dumb, buddy.
00:04:49.240 You was damn dumb.
00:04:51.180 You was a dumb child.
00:04:55.140 And your mother still hugged you and said you're going to do good on it.
00:04:59.040 I remember my mom would be like, you're going to do great on your test.
00:05:05.260 I'd look at her like, really?
00:05:06.500 I am?
00:05:09.040 You could, and she, yeah, you're going to do great.
00:05:11.420 And I would leave out the door and I'd peek back in the window.
00:05:13.820 You could see her just shaking her head like he going to fuck it up.
00:05:16.420 But that's crazy to, to send something, know something is going to not do well on a damn spelling or whatever it's called.
00:05:28.180 And send it out in the world and still hug it.
00:05:30.680 And pretend like you, when they get back, how'd you do?
00:05:33.720 You fucking know good and well how they did, mom.
00:05:36.740 They didn't do shit, boy.
00:05:40.340 They didn't do shit, bro.
00:05:42.520 Opening pants.
00:05:44.620 Another batch of warm water on that ass.
00:05:46.940 It's spring cleaning.
00:05:50.360 Mother's Day, man.
00:05:51.260 That's what it is.
00:05:52.880 And that's what it ain't, man.
00:05:54.380 And, yeah, I want to say happy Mother's Day to my mother.
00:05:57.960 I know she watches this show and I appreciate that.
00:06:02.480 Man, happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.
00:06:06.240 The ones that do it by themselves.
00:06:08.300 And some of y'all have help.
00:06:12.340 And, yeah, it's just this.
00:06:18.240 We know you're doing it.
00:06:19.800 Somebody's doing it.
00:06:22.440 And it ain't us.
00:06:24.380 It ain't us children.
00:06:26.900 We think we did it ourself.
00:06:30.620 We didn't do shit.
00:06:33.820 So make sure to reach out to your mother.
00:06:35.500 Hit her with a happy Mother's Day.
00:06:37.420 Get her something.
00:06:39.280 We got one of our commercials.

00:21:31.020 Hope he stops the massaging of children.
00:21:33.280 You know what I'm talking about?
00:21:34.140 Yeah.
00:21:37.480 We shut it down, brother.
00:21:39.080 I don't know if we can say that.
00:21:40.040 And how do we know when they pick the Pope?
00:21:43.280 So they, I guess all the cardinals, there's like a bunch of, I don't know, many.
00:21:48.120 They all like silently, secretly, like, you know that thing you did in school where you
00:21:52.140 let it like close your eyes and raise your hand and the teacher counted?
00:21:54.940 I guess it's like that where they like secretly vote.
00:21:57.600 Oh.
00:21:57.880 And they don't decide until, I think it's like a two-thirds majority.
00:22:01.600 Like heads up, sovereign up or whatever?
00:22:03.600 Yeah.
00:22:04.240 So if the Pope, I guess every day they do it, and if the Pope hasn't been chosen, they
00:22:08.000 do like black smoke out of the chimney.
00:22:10.480 And then if the Pope does get chosen, then it's white smoke that comes out of the chimney.
00:22:15.020 Oh, really?
00:22:15.800 So how long did it take them to choose this Pope?
00:22:17.380 I think just like two days, because yesterday it was black smoke, and then, or two days
00:22:21.880 ago it was black smoke, and then yesterday it was white smoke.
00:22:24.660 Damn.
00:22:25.500 So it's only two days.
00:22:27.020 Have we ever had a black Pope yet?
00:22:28.960 No.
00:22:30.700 Wow, bro.
00:22:32.580 That's what we got to get that black Pope, boy.
00:22:35.760 Big gay!
00:22:37.500 What about an Asian Pope?
00:22:38.780 Have we had it?
00:22:40.960 Oh, we got to get a damn little Asian Pope, boy.
00:22:47.380 Just a little bit of prayer fried rice, boy, you feel me?
00:22:50.760 So you said this would be the summer of you.
00:22:53.420 But then you remembered, you have kids, and now you spend every sunny day at water parks
00:22:57.980 and petting zoos.
00:22:59.280 So be it.
00:23:00.440 We do the prep, so you can get your you time back with freshly prepared, ready-for-you dishes
00:23:05.160 from Sobeys.
00:23:08.660 I want to say thank you to Mom for having all the answers.
00:23:13.660 She had them all.
00:23:14.580 She didn't, sometimes they were wrong yet, but she had them all.
00:23:19.220 Imagine something just asking you questions for 18 years and more, and you do your best
00:23:26.160 to answer every one.
00:23:28.480 Yup, that's a mom.
00:23:31.200 But this year we're answering for mom, and the answer is we're going to give them flowers
00:23:38.480 plus a real break.
00:23:40.520 Because moms are at it 24-7.
00:23:44.100 And flowers, it's nice, but you know what they really want is a break.
00:23:49.520 From everyone's questions, from the endless to-do list, from momming.
00:23:55.540 Oh, I still ask my mom so many questions.
00:23:57.960 I will call and ask my mom what shoe size I wear.
00:24:01.920 I wish I could look in my shoe, I could do a ruler against my foot, but I will call my
00:24:10.480 mom, and if she doesn't answer it when I call, I will just not know what my shoe size
00:24:16.880 is for the day.
00:24:18.220 Oh, if I was a mom, I would just put earplugs in.
00:24:21.180 That's what I would do.
00:24:22.540 I would tell my kids I would have like one of those lights that taxis have above them
00:24:26.080 on the top of a taxi that says when it's available or not.
00:24:29.220 I would turn the light off, not available.
00:24:32.540 And then I would, what would I do if I were a mom?
00:24:37.160 Oh, I would get in a big bubble bath.
00:24:41.480 That's what my mom used to do.
00:24:43.780 She would yell, she'd yell at us and say something.
00:24:47.740 And say we weren't going to be able to have something.
00:24:49.700 And then you would hear, you'd hear her slam her door and then every now and then you'd
00:24:55.680 hear her get in that bubble bath right there and maybe crack open a cold beer or something
00:25:01.620 or cold little can of milk or whatever.
00:25:05.200 You'd hear her crack it open and get that bubble bath going.
00:25:09.480 Sud so high, you couldn't see, hear nothing.
00:25:12.140 Is she in there?
00:25:13.400 I don't know what she would, and I think she would just sit in there in the bubbles and
00:25:17.840 have a little sip of beer or cold milk.
00:25:20.920 Something to get her through the day, man.
00:25:22.780 So if I was a mother, I would do that.
00:25:24.640 Oh, and I forgot to add, this Mother's Day when you buy your mom flowers, you'll get up
00:25:28.700 to $75 as a DashPass member or up to $50 as a non-DashPass member towards a family meal
00:25:36.060 that mom doesn't have to cook.
00:25:38.720 A fun activity so mom can play without planning or a self-care retreat in case mom just wants
00:25:44.860 some me time.
00:25:46.020 Yep, that's Theo50, T-H-E-O, number five, number zero, to get 50% off up to a $15 value

00:26:14.800 Make this Mother's Day special with DoorDash.
00:26:18.400 Terms apply.
00:26:22.260 All right.
00:26:23.780 You know, one of the last episodes, the last solo episode we had called Chili Boy or something
00:26:29.380 like that.
00:26:31.580 Was it Chili Baby?
00:26:32.880 Chili Boy?
00:26:33.540 Chili Baby?
00:26:34.820 Chili.
00:26:35.240 Oh, Pickle Chili.
00:26:37.980 And it was about a month ago.
00:26:39.540 And a man called in who had lost his girlfriend to cancer.
00:26:46.280 So we're going to take a quick listen to that.
00:26:53.500 Hey, Theo.
00:26:54.700 Hope you're doing well.
00:26:56.260 I'm calling you today.
00:26:58.520 See if I can get your perspective on something.
00:27:00.420 Um, my, uh, girlfriend of, uh, four years, she, uh, she passed away five and a half months
00:27:08.700 ago.
00:27:08.940 Um, she, uh, it wasn't, uh, not a surprise, but, you know, she, uh, she had cancer.
00:27:15.220 Um, we thought that she had a little more time.
00:27:18.460 But, um, yeah, um, since then I've spent most of my time doing nothing.
00:27:24.540 You know, um, I would visit her grave every day for, uh, months, which is good, I guess,
00:27:31.580 for getting out.
00:27:32.820 He goes and visits her grave every day, you would say, for months onward.
00:27:36.840 Man, thank you for sharing this, brother.
00:27:38.840 Of my apartment.
00:27:40.880 Um, but I would just let the time pass, you know.
00:27:45.200 But, um, recently I've started, uh, going back to school full time and, uh, working again.
00:27:52.980 And, honestly, I feel like I'm just doing it because it's, uh, expected of me, you know,
00:27:59.000 from, like, people around me, my family, and, like, peers.
00:28:03.140 Um, I guess another reason for that is I'm, I'm pretty young.
00:28:08.180 But, um, so maybe some people just expect me to move forward pretty fast.
00:28:13.980 But, you know, I, I don't want to, you know.
00:28:16.400 Um, yeah, um, I just, you know, sometimes here I feel like you're like, I feel like I was,
00:28:22.900 like, left behind, you know.
00:28:24.200 Um.
00:28:25.400 Yeah, thank you for the call, brother.
00:28:27.040 And, um, and we, we, we discussed this on a previous episode.
00:28:31.080 But we had, we got some calls that came in.
00:28:33.200 And I wanted to listen to some of them here.
00:28:36.000 Uh, just so you can get an idea.
00:28:37.600 As always, the hotline guide is, is 985-664-9503.
00:28:44.020 And, um, here's a call that came in about grief.
00:28:47.900 If we asked callers, uh, if they had any suggestions for that gentleman.
00:28:52.180 And here's some of the responses that we got.
00:28:57.800 Hey, Theo.
00:28:58.760 Um, man, love your show, bro.
00:29:00.660 Listen to you every day or every time you make a podcast.
00:29:03.540 I'm actually listening to Pickle Chili right now.
00:29:06.120 Um, and I heard the caller call in about he lost a, uh, his, uh, girlfriend or whatever.
00:29:11.120 And you ask some people to call in, give some ideas of how maybe he can handle this situation.
00:29:16.760 And, look, I actually lost my daughter five years ago to this day.
00:29:21.760 Um.
00:29:23.660 From a brain aneurysm.
00:29:25.500 And I guess the only advice I can say is, look, man, don't let nobody tell you how long you should grieve.
00:29:30.940 Uh, it's going to be different for everyone.
00:29:32.820 Because not every, not every, uh, situation is going to be built the same.
00:29:38.500 So, uh, do it at your own speed, man.
00:29:41.720 Um, there's going to be a lot of people that's going to want to get involved and tell you how you should do these.
00:29:46.900 But you have to experience this the way that you need to experience this to make it right for you.
00:29:53.200 Um, I have dreams about my daughter often, man.
00:29:56.180 And it's funny because, like, in my dreams, I know she's passed away.
00:30:00.100 And I know she's not with her.
00:30:01.840 So, while I'm dreaming, I try to, I just try to hug her and talk to her.
00:30:06.400 And make that dream last as long as I can.
00:30:10.460 Um, you know.
00:30:12.300 And look, bruh, miss her.
00:30:13.820 Miss her every day.
00:30:15.140 I talk to my daughter.
00:30:16.580 I miss, I mean, every night before I say a prayer, I talk to my daughter.
00:30:21.660 And I've been doing that since the day she's passed away.
00:30:25.340 And look, last but not least, bruh, it doesn't get easier.
00:30:29.800 It really doesn't.
00:30:30.920 It just becomes a new type of normal.
00:30:33.840 If, uh, if that makes some sense, bro.
00:30:36.160 Man, Theo, gang, gang, love you, bruh.
00:30:38.840 Love you too, bruh.
00:30:39.880 Thank you, man.
00:30:41.680 Man.
00:30:42.040 Man, that's just, that's a lot, you know, it's, that's nice of him to call.
00:30:56.360 He called out of Louisiana.
00:30:57.360 I see that area code 337 over there.
00:30:59.860 And you can hear the bayou in the back of his drawer right there.
00:31:02.920 Yeah, um, yeah, I remember after my dad was gone, even still, sometimes if I'm having
00:31:08.640 like a tough day, whenever I go to sleep at night, I'll, uh, yeah, I'll hope that I get
00:31:14.180 to see him or that he shows up, you know.
00:31:16.080 And then sometimes it's like, gets to be further, sometimes it's like further and further between
00:31:20.600 times.
00:31:21.000 And then, um, yeah, and it just like, you just wish some, like, you hope that somebody will
00:31:30.400 be there.
00:31:30.740 But then sometimes they are in your dream and yeah, that's awesome, man.
00:31:35.720 That's a really nice, uh, sentiment to share.
00:31:40.020 Um, thank you for that call.
00:31:41.360 Let's take another call here.
00:31:45.720 Hey, Theo.
00:31:47.140 Hey, man.
00:31:47.700 Just wanted to call in, uh, in response, listening to the pickle chili podcast and, uh, the guy.
00:31:56.320 Thank you for listening, man.
00:31:57.740 I appreciate that.
00:31:58.440 Thank all you, all anybody who listened.
00:32:00.740 Guy that lost his, um, girlfriend and after five months wanted to respond to somebody that's
00:32:06.740 been through that too.
00:32:08.700 Uh, lost my fiance, um, high school sweethearts.
00:32:13.360 Um, yeah, day before my birthday, she was in a car accident and, uh, it's tough, man.
00:32:20.800 Somebody that's somebody that you've been with for seven years.
00:32:23.740 Um, at a young age, I was, uh, 21.
00:32:27.940 She's 20.
00:32:28.960 So it's kind of rough, but just wanted to respond to him and letting know the things that have
00:32:34.420 helped me and maybe it'll help him and somebody else.
00:32:37.180 And the biggest thing is I got all those, uh, the same symptoms as him, um, you know, didn't
00:32:43.820 want to do anything.
00:32:45.260 Uh, you lose your purpose in life and, uh, some things that you touched on, Theo, you know,
00:32:51.340 uh, you want to dream, you want to feel all that again.
00:32:54.160 And, uh, it's all true.
00:32:56.680 Uh, but the thing that helped me the most is, is surround yourself with, uh, friends and
00:33:02.120 family and, um, those things right there, the people that love and support you.
00:33:07.600 I'm still close with her family and, uh, those things help you get through it, man.
00:33:12.080 So anytime I'm having those rough days and weeks and, and you just, like you said, get
00:33:19.520 out, surround yourself with people that love you and your friends, go do some things with
00:33:25.220 your friends.
00:33:25.760 They're always there for you.
00:33:26.940 And, uh, I got a dog, you know, and that really helped me get through that too, man.
00:33:31.120 You always got somebody excited to see you when you get home and, uh, that's it, man.
00:33:36.020 That's really the answer.
00:33:37.240 Uh, you'll never forget.
00:33:38.580 You'll never move on, uh, completely.
00:33:41.060 You hope to have a normal life, but, um, the things that help you push through it are going
00:33:47.460 to be just love, surround yourself with people who love you.
00:33:54.480 Amen, man.
00:33:57.720 Yeah.
00:33:58.120 There's a song, uh, uh, there's a song by this guy, Stephen Wilson Jr.
00:34:02.140 Thank you for that call.
00:34:03.040 And thank you to the caller previously too.
00:34:04.840 And thank you guys for both sharing, uh, your experience with loss.
00:34:08.720 Yeah.
00:34:09.120 There's this song, uh, grief.
00:34:11.940 Is that, uh, by Stephen Wilson Jr.
00:34:15.500 And it's, uh, grief is only love that has nowhere to go.
00:34:22.520 And, um, and I thought about that.
00:34:27.380 I thought about that since that gentleman called in, um, because love is like, love is this
00:34:34.360 feeling that it has to land on someone or an object.
00:34:37.500 It has to land on a, on something, right?
00:34:40.220 Like a person, place.
00:34:41.120 It has to, it has to, love has to have a place to land.
00:34:44.160 If you love, like you can love yourself, but, um, that's more like integrity and, um, confidence.
00:34:52.320 And then it can even drift into ego or whatever.
00:34:55.380 But when you really love, you love someone, you know?
00:35:01.240 And so love is really, it's an outward thing.
00:35:04.420 It's, it's not, it's yours, but it's, if it's active, it's not yours.
00:35:12.000 It's, it's, uh, like a bridge almost kind of.
00:35:17.080 And then, um, yeah, once that recipient is gone, once that place where it was landing
00:35:23.800 is gone, it's like, um, it almost becomes, it's crazy that something that is so wonderful
00:35:32.480 can become so painful because then you have the, all these same feelings, but they don't
00:35:36.800 have the place to land.
00:35:37.960 And, um, yeah, I remember when my father died, I remember I just, I was at his funeral
00:35:46.380 and it was like the most, like, scariest thing ever.
00:35:48.740 There was people there that I didn't even, I didn't know any of them.
00:35:52.320 And, uh, my, um, this family that I just moved in with the day it took me over there.
00:35:59.680 And, uh, and some of our neighbors went with me and I just remember like, uh, it was all
00:36:07.460 these feelings that I think I didn't even know that I'd had that I wanted to be for my
00:36:11.940 father.
00:36:12.300 And I didn't even know I had them.
00:36:14.100 And now it was just like, they were, they hit a dam, you know, they just would never have
00:36:18.320 a place to go.
00:36:19.480 And I just remember like just so much tears and like crying and like, it would be like
00:36:25.820 going into the cracks of the floor.
00:36:27.740 And I just wanted to, I just wanted to be one of those tears.
00:36:31.760 I wanted to just disappear.
00:36:34.520 Um, uh, let's take some other calls, man.
00:36:40.680 And we're not trying to make that like, I guess it can't help, but be like sad, but I
00:36:47.040 think it's real.
00:36:48.140 Right.
00:36:49.560 Um, and it's real.
00:36:52.020 This is, you know, life is real and it's full of real things.
00:36:55.540 Um, and I'm just glad we don't have to go through them alone.
00:36:59.060 So that's a nice thought to have right now.
00:37:02.460 Hey, Theo.
00:37:03.960 Um, I'm replying to the gentleman that had recently lost a girlfriend.
00:37:09.020 Uh, I had lost my girlfriend back in 2018.
00:37:13.520 So it's going on seven years now.
00:37:17.000 Um, it's tough.
00:37:20.640 And it sounds like he was looking for answers when, you know, the only thing that I could
00:37:29.840 say is like, it sounds like he's on the right track.
00:37:31.780 And if I was him, I would just choose to live through the memories that they shared together.
00:37:40.660 Um, I remember my girlfriend always telling me that, you know, she thought I was a good
00:37:46.320 teacher.
00:37:47.320 And so now I'm in a field where I'm able to teach people things.
00:37:52.020 And I just feel like every time I do, I just, it reminds me of her.
00:37:59.100 And there's just like, it's no longer a sadness anymore.
00:38:03.120 There's a happiness in it.
00:38:05.660 And yeah, you know, it's funny.
00:38:11.740 Um, thank you.
00:38:13.680 Sorry, I'm belting.
00:38:14.680 I had a little bit of Celsius, but, uh, thank you for the call, man.
00:38:20.180 And yeah, I remember my dad, like one thing I were like, one of the only things I remember
00:38:24.100 he said to me ever in my life was that I was a survivor.
00:38:26.180 He used to always say that you're a survivor, you know, and maybe he knew that because he
00:38:30.660 was so old that it would be something that I would need.
00:38:33.180 I don't know.
00:38:34.040 But it's like, it's like one thing that I just feel like, you know, I relate to or something.
00:38:43.580 Um, you know, like I'm going to get through this, I guess, you know?
00:38:48.360 Um, so I think that's really magical that when you act out something that somebody who
00:38:53.720 loves you told you, you were, when you do those things, um, that you are kind of servicing
00:39:02.720 that relationship that's no longer there, you know?
00:39:06.340 Like if she says that, where you said this part, I remember my girlfriend always telling
00:39:12.740 me that, you know, she thought I was a good teacher.
00:39:16.360 And so now I'm in a field where I'm able to teach people things.
00:39:21.500 And yeah, I could totally see that man, that by then teaching that you feel like you're honoring
00:39:26.800 her and it makes you feel that same way that you felt when she told you it was something
00:39:32.980 that you did really well.
00:39:35.560 Um, yeah, it's interesting how we figure out how to, uh, how to keep going in the world,
00:39:45.380 all of us.
00:39:49.160 And that we want to, that's one thing that I think is amazing about life, uh, is this will
00:39:55.000 to survive, right?
00:39:56.220 It's like, you have a man that lost his daughter and he's, you know, and there's, it's like he
00:40:04.380 wants to go in, at least wake up and see the day every day because, you know, probably through
00:40:09.760 his eyes, his daughter somehow gets to see the day as well.
00:40:12.840 You know, I think there's just something in us that wants to survive so much.
00:40:17.060 Um, and I don't even know what to say about that or what I think about that thought.
00:40:22.760 Uh, but thank you for that call, man.
00:40:27.340 Thanks for sharing that.
00:40:28.720 Um, all right, let's take one more call.
00:40:32.440 Hey, Theo, this is Tyler from Cincinnati.
00:40:36.140 Hey, Tyler, thank you for calling, dude.
00:40:38.180 Cincinnati over there.
00:40:40.960 Will the Bengals have a decent defense?
00:40:43.260 I don't know.
00:40:44.080 All the money's on the offensive side of the ball.
00:40:46.140 It feels like if they let Trey Hendrickson go.
00:40:48.580 Now, with that said, is it a Joe Burrow make or break year?
00:40:53.720 We'll see about that, baby.
00:40:56.120 Onward, brother.
00:40:57.320 Um, I don't have personal experience with a loss of an immediate loved one, but I've walked
00:41:02.960 next to someone who has, and our church offers counseling around that.
00:41:08.120 And one of the resources we use is this book called Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy.
00:41:13.200 I highly recommend it to everyone who is dealing with loss and I buy it for anyone close to
00:41:20.880 me that I hear has a loved one who they've lost and they've found some piece from that
00:41:28.160 book.
00:41:28.760 Uh, yeah, hopefully that could be a resource to some people who are listening.
00:41:33.680 Thanks.
00:41:34.040 Bye.
00:41:34.160 All right.
00:41:37.460 Yeah.
00:41:37.660 Thank you for that suggestion, man.
00:41:39.140 I know there's a lot of grief books out there and stuff, but it's just like, how do you go
00:41:43.620 through it?
00:41:47.400 Yeah.
00:41:47.940 Uh, it's interesting.
00:41:48.640 The young man who called earlier, the first, the original call was saying that he felt like
00:41:52.640 he got left behind.
00:41:53.980 Yeah, it's just, it's all kind of fascinating.
00:42:02.440 Um, even though it's so sad, uh, I was, I was the other day, this came up on my feed when
00:42:17.860 I was thinking about grief.
00:42:19.920 Um, and it's Jim Carrey once said, or this site attributes, attributes it to him.
00:42:27.040 Grief is not just an emotion.
00:42:29.440 It's an unraveling, a space where something once lived, but is now gone.
00:42:35.360 It carves through you, leaving a hollow ache where love once resided in the beginning.
00:42:41.460 It feels unbearable like a wound that will never close.
00:42:44.560 But over time, the raw edges begin to mend the pain softens, but the imprint remains
00:42:51.140 a quiet reminder of what once was the truth is you never really move on.
00:42:57.340 You move with it.
00:42:58.720 The love you have does not disappear.
00:43:00.700 It transforms.
00:43:01.720 It lingers in the echoes of laughter and the warmth of old memories in the silent moments
00:43:07.080 where you still reach for what is no longer there.
00:43:09.580 And that's okay.
00:43:11.600 Grief is not a burden to be hidden.
00:43:13.540 It's not a weakness to be ashamed of.
00:43:16.360 It is the deepest proof that love existed.
00:43:19.780 That's something beautiful once touched your life.
00:43:22.740 So let yourself feel it.
00:43:24.460 Let yourself mourn.
00:43:25.820 Let yourself remember.
00:43:28.100 There is no timeline.
00:43:30.200 There is no right way to grieve.
00:43:33.140 Some days will be heavy and some will feel lighter.
00:43:36.580 Some moments will bring unexpected waves of sadness while others will fill you with gratitude
00:43:41.700 for the love you were lucky enough to experience.
00:43:44.200 Honor your grief for it is sacred.
00:43:48.760 It is a testament to the depth of your heart.
00:43:51.240 And in time, through the pain, you will find healing, not because you have forgotten, but
00:43:56.480 because you have learned how to carry both love and loss together.
00:43:59.860 Man, that's a pretty powerful.
00:44:09.060 Yeah.
00:44:09.380 Whenever I had heard that quote that, yeah, that grief is only love that has no place to
00:44:13.640 go.
00:44:13.800 It's a great song too by Stephen Wilson Jr.
00:44:16.040 I don't believe that the quote is his, but it's a great song.
00:44:24.760 Yeah.
00:44:25.240 Like you have memories and sometimes even just telling a funny story about someone that's
00:44:32.040 gone can almost make you have the same feeling as if they are still alive sometimes.
00:44:38.740 Um, but yeah, thank you guys for anyway, listening to that.
00:44:48.220 I know some of that stuff's kind of heavy and stuff to think about, but it's nice to take
00:44:51.560 moments to think about people, uh, and just hear what just be alive.
00:45:00.640 Yeah.
00:45:01.140 It's nice to just be alive.
00:45:02.620 Um, yeah, I don't mean that.
00:45:05.860 I just mean it's, um, I don't know what I mean anyway.
00:45:10.660 Yeah.
00:45:11.020 Thank you everybody for who made some calls and called in.
00:45:14.200 Uh, there was a lot of nice calls and suggestions and we tried to put some together there.
00:45:19.380 Um, you know, I wanted to say something, there's been something that's just been kind of on my
00:45:25.200 heart and so I feel like I should bring it up.
00:45:28.140 Um, there is, you know, we've had people on the podcast in the past to talk about it.
00:45:34.200 Um, and there's just a, there's a conflict that's been happening in the Middle East.
00:45:43.260 People know about it, um, between Israel and Palestine and some of the areas over there,
00:45:49.780 the Gaza area they talk about.
00:45:51.440 And, uh, and I just think it's, it feels to me, I don't know if I, it just, it feels to
00:46:00.240 me like it's a genocide that's happening while we're alive here in front of our, in front
00:46:07.760 of our lives.
00:46:08.520 Um, and I, I don't, sometimes I feel like I should say something.
00:46:15.820 I'm not a geologist or geographer or anything like that, you know?
00:46:19.800 So I don't know a lot of the, some of it I do know though.
00:46:24.960 Like I know the basics of the issues over there, but for me, it's just like how I feel like you
00:46:30.440 see all these photos of, um, people, just children, women, people, body parts, just people
00:46:41.840 like putting their kids back together.
00:46:44.200 Um, and I just can't believe that we're watching that and that more isn't said about it.
00:46:50.800 Um, and so I'm not saying anyone else needs to say anything, but I think I'm just that more
00:46:55.620 isn't said about it by me.
00:46:57.580 So I just, uh, I want to be able to speak up about that, that I think we're watching
00:47:02.860 probably like, you know, one of the sickest things that's ever happened.
00:47:09.440 And, uh, and I'm sorry if I've kind of haven't said about it, I've tried to talk about it and
00:47:14.620 learn about it.
00:47:15.840 Um, but I don't know, maybe I just want to, I just wanted to say something.
00:47:21.580 I don't even know what to do, you know?
00:47:24.520 And it's crazy cause our country is also complicit in, in, you know, it's, uh, in, in it and
00:47:29.620 has been for a long time.
00:47:30.840 And, um, and it's just kind of interesting cause then you just realize, oh, well, I'm
00:47:34.860 just, uh, yeah, I'm a member of this country, but I'm just, what we want sometimes doesn't
00:47:40.860 matter, you know?
00:47:42.980 And you just have to be a member of a place and your government is making other choices.
00:47:48.000 Um, so I don't know if I, I don't know if I said that correctly or I don't even know
00:47:55.140 exactly what I said, but I just, I just have, it just like been making me really sick and
00:47:59.980 I feel like I just needed to say something that I think you don't have to think that I'm
00:48:06.600 not asking you to do anything.
00:48:09.880 Um, but I just have to say that.
00:48:12.900 So I'm not sitting by, you know, there's that peace inside of me.
00:48:18.140 Like, why, why wouldn't you, can you say something?
00:48:21.120 You know, there's people that can't even speak and you can say something, you know?
00:48:25.100 And so that's how I, I just had to just speak up.
00:48:28.900 Anyway, I think maybe it's starting to make it about me there at the end, but, um, yeah.
00:48:33.760 So just praying for those people and just the grief that that is all going to cause.
00:48:44.500 You notice like, what are we doing?
00:48:50.560 But, um, and I know that this has happened to other ethnicities and other cultures.
00:48:54.720 I know that it's happening to other places too.
00:48:57.380 Um, I just don't see that as much.
00:48:59.320 And so, uh, yeah, anyway.
00:49:02.980 Um, anyway, that was kind of a downer ending, but.
00:49:09.400 Big guy.
00:49:14.020 So Mother's Day is a good day to just be reminded to love people, whether it's your mother or a
00:49:19.720 kid or a puppy or a, um, little alligator, whatever you got over there, you know, even
00:49:26.880 if it's a memory, you know, get a picture out of somebody that was a member of your life
00:49:32.020 or that loved you and spend a few moments with them, you know, or that's what I'm going
00:49:39.220 to try to do.
00:49:39.840 You know, I got a couple pictures of my dad.
00:49:42.000 I think there's a couple of memories that I keep of him that are like, that are just
00:49:47.420 mine.
00:49:47.860 It feels like, you know, um, yeah, there's a couple of memories of him that I feel like
00:49:56.100 are just mine.
00:49:56.900 And so, yeah, I can just, I, you know, I can, you can spend time with those.
00:50:02.000 You're the only two people that have those in the world is you and that other person.
00:50:04.900 So that's a really, that's one of a kind.
00:50:10.100 So that's really something cool that you can do.
00:50:12.760 Um, but anyway, this is getting long.
00:50:17.160 Uh, happy Mother's Day.
00:50:19.480 Thanks for letting me be a part of your life today.
00:50:21.280 Thanks for being a part of my life today.
00:50:22.680 Um, and I don't even know how to end this, what to do.
00:50:30.980 I don't even have any music on today.
00:50:32.900 So big day, uh, big day, uh, but yeah, anyway, quit listening to me, text your mom, even if
00:50:45.360 you hate her, text her and be like, Hey mom, love you.
00:50:48.340 And then just send a wink emoji after it.
00:50:52.920 That's Hey, look, Hey, it's a start, right?
00:50:56.740 Uh, you guys be good to yourself, baby.
00:50:58.360 Praise God.
00:50:58.980 Thank you.
00:51:00.700 Oh, and Easton.
00:51:01.740 Thank you so much, Easton, for helping us out today.
00:51:03.900 Dude came over.
00:51:04.980 We never even met.
00:51:07.580 We never even met.
00:51:08.640 What are you getting your mom for Mother's Day, Easton?
00:51:11.280 I think we, uh, me and my siblings went in on something.
00:51:14.260 I don't really know what it is yet.
00:51:15.480 Okay.
00:51:16.040 I found out on Mother's Day as well.
00:51:17.280 Like type shit, dude.
00:51:19.440 The craziest is when you buy some of your siblings, right?
00:51:21.800 They picked it out.
00:51:22.720 They show up with it.
00:51:24.160 Mom opens it.
00:51:25.260 She likes it, but you don't fucking like it.
00:51:27.820 It's happened a few times.
00:51:28.920 Yeah.
00:51:29.100 That's crazy.
00:51:32.120 That's like, dude, that's one of the, that's guy.
00:51:34.900 That's why being a mom has to be so crazy.
00:51:36.960 Something crawls out of your body, right?
00:51:39.200 Hangs out in the kitchen for probably 15 years.
00:51:41.920 Right.
00:51:42.140 Um, and then fucking basically, I don't even, sorry.
00:51:49.140 I don't, there wasn't an ending to that, but, uh, yeah, dude, that would be the thing.
00:51:54.780 Somebody got my mom one of those boat in a bottle things, ship in a bottle.
00:51:58.460 You know what I'm talking about?
00:52:02.800 Yeah.
00:52:04.260 Yeah.
00:52:04.700 We all gave my sister some money and she was going, she was, she'd been using or whatever
00:52:08.820 or mountain climbing or whatever she called it.
00:52:11.000 But she, um, we gave her the money.
00:52:13.720 She shows up.
00:52:14.580 We each gave her like 80 bucks.
00:52:16.180 She shows up.
00:52:16.940 She was supposed to have something nice for her mom.
00:52:18.100 She got her one of those fucking ship in a bottles, dog.
00:52:23.980 And I had no change with it.
00:52:27.420 Like, bitch, get the, give me that fucking change, bitch.
00:52:31.120 Come on, big guy.
00:52:33.300 Uh, all right, man.
00:52:34.440 Thank you, Easton, bro.
00:52:35.780 Much obliged.
00:52:36.680 Appreciate you.
00:52:37.440 Um, and, uh, make sure to check out net positive with John Chris and, um, and Easton on there.
00:52:45.320 And, um, you guys be good to yourselves.
00:52:47.700 Now I'm just floating on the breeze and I feel I'm falling like these leaves.
00:52:54.220 I must be cornerstone.
00:52:59.460 Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind.
00:53:04.180 Well, I found I can feel it in my bones.
00:53:09.340 But it's gonna tell you.
00:53:11.000 Thank you.
00:53:11.120 Thank you.
