Washing a baby while listening to some oldies like Brian Adams and Isaac George. Happy Easter and Happy New Year. Happy Holidays to all and a Happy Easter to all. Happy New Years to all!
00:01:30.800You know, my mother used to wash me sometime when I was young to, uh, Brian Adams.
00:01:35.760I remember when I was young, my mom would, uh, put us all in the yard sometimes.
00:01:40.020You know, if we'd been out playing in the mud or just, you know, fighting or sometimes people would in our neighborhood would burn stuff in the ditch.
00:01:48.180And, um, you know, and after the, you know, a couple days after, whenever it was just a bunch of ash in the ditch or, you know, black ash or something in the ditch, we would do this thing called dirty donuts where we would put like water all over our skin and get out in the ash.
00:02:04.800And you would get ash all over your body and you would look, I don't know, I guess kind of fun a little bit, but mostly just kind of covered in charcoal.
00:02:12.520And, um, and I always remember that that was kind of like a fun thing we would do.
00:02:17.940And then my mom would spray us down with a hose out in the yard all at once.
00:02:21.900You know, she would wash us all at once and she would put on some Brian Adams sometimes in the house while she would do it.
00:02:27.560And I think it's probably more fun, you know, I don't have any children, but it's probably more fun to wash your children to music than just sitting there washing them.
00:02:35.220So, but yeah, this seemed like the kind of music you would wash a baby to.
00:02:38.380And this is called Seth Saves Spring from Isaac George.
00:03:10.840If some of you guys are on the YouTube, you'll see, you know, you know, uh, you know, regular background that you've seen before here whenever I'm down here.
00:03:18.600And, um, and I've had a good time, man.
00:08:42.060I don't know what's going on with him.
00:08:44.180He's like, I'm thinking I need a diet.
00:08:45.480I'm like, I think you need a haircut on them tits first and go from there.
00:08:51.140But it's, you know, it's just before we were infected with all these diets, I think we used to enjoy our time a little bit more.
00:08:58.800And I guess if I could look back on today a little bit, I probably wish I would have not thought about, you know, calories and all of this and that as much.
00:09:07.640But I would have just been, you know, more focused on the day.
00:09:10.140But we had, you know, had a nice weekend, had a bunch of crawfish.
00:09:15.820And crawfish is just a, it's just a fancy snail that's down the fuck, really.
00:09:21.400I mean, that thing is, it's like a shrimp that's, you know, I mean, I've talked about it before.
00:09:26.520Crawfish is just like a shrimp that's from Rome.
00:12:28.840And I remember, you know, I think it's fun, you know, hiding the children's baskets.
00:12:34.240You know, my niece and nephews, they got all their baskets hidden and they, you know, I get over here today and they're telling me where they found it under the table and this and that.
00:12:41.480And I started thinking about the Easter rabbit and, you know, they were saying, yeah, the Easter bunny came and I'm thinking how lucky it is.
00:12:51.880If you're, you know, back in the day, whenever they were, you know, auditioning animals or whatever to, to get the role of the Easter animal, because that thing could have been anything.
00:13:09.380But it's, you know, that rabbit got that job.
00:13:13.000And if that rabbit doesn't book that role, then rabbits are, they wouldn't, I don't think they would have had some of the luxurious life that they've had.
00:13:33.520So to, so to see them book that gig of being an Easter animal and, you know, being that, you know, being that, uh, they're like the Napoleon of candy, you know, to see rabbits get that gig and get out there, it's, it kind of, it kind of shaped their whole existence.
00:13:51.440I feel like in, at least in America, you know, I don't know what animal is, is the Easter animal in other countries.
00:13:59.140It could be a, I don't know what it could be.
00:14:02.220They could have an Easter cricket in Spain.
00:14:06.060You know, they probably have an Easter kangaroo in Australia.
00:14:08.880Because otherwise rabbits are, I mean, they, they, they're kind of a strange animal.
00:14:15.560You know, they fuck, I mean, they'll fuck anywhere.
00:14:18.380You know, they got that kind of, I mean, they got that Jamaican blood in them.
00:14:21.640I don't know if you have any friends that are Jamaican, but man, you, you leave, you know, you leave two, you leave two Jamaicans, uh, behind a, um, you leave two Jamaicans behind a shiffer robe.
00:14:32.440You'll come back a little while later.
00:15:28.680And that would be probably creepy to think for kids.
00:15:31.880But in some places, that's probably normal.
00:15:33.500In Germany, it might be an Easter frog.
00:15:35.400I don't know what some of the other countries do.
00:15:38.560But, but I grew up, I remember, I didn't see a lot of, I guess, I didn't see a lot of stray rabbits until I worked on a farm.
00:15:47.240I used to work on a farm outside of Faraday, Louisiana, which is where Jerry Lee Lewis is from.
00:15:52.180And I didn't see a lot of stray rabbits until I worked up there.
00:15:56.340And, and I do remember actually when I was really young, they had a girl in our neighborhood.
00:16:01.900This girl named Doris, Splashy Doris, people used to call her because anytime it would rain and there would be puddles out on the street or whatever,
00:16:09.140she would go out there, this little see you next Tuesday, you know what I'm talking about, coont.
00:16:14.220She would go out there and put on these big boots, you know, her dad's boots, her stepdad's boots, or some man's boots that her mom was banging.
00:16:23.680And Splashy Doris would go out there and splash in all the puddles until they like dispersed.
00:16:30.080It was like she wanted to get rid of the puddles before the rest of the kids could come enjoy them.
00:16:35.860You know, it was kind of, it was, she was kind of like the British.
00:16:40.100You know, she wanted to show up and like, you know, ravage everything and get it and get all the joy for herself.
00:16:46.480So she, you know, Splashy Doris would get out there and just, just splash these puddles in a, you know, smithereens.
00:16:52.220And, and then by the time we got out there, we're like, where are all the puddles?
00:16:55.300And Splashy Doris would be in the distance, just, you know, soaking wet head to toe, but acting like she ruled the world.
00:17:02.260But she made a, they had a bunch of, not a bunch, but I would say maybe they had about 19 or maybe 30, maybe tall rabbits that came through one year.
00:17:34.340And, and, and these rabbits, next thing you know, just attacked this fucking lemonade.
00:17:40.540And I don't know if these rabbits were from, you know, if they had kind of a, something in their system where they wanted that lemon or they wanted that sugar.
00:17:49.020But until you've seen about, you know, 19 or maybe even 30 rabbits fuck up a couple of kids.
00:18:18.100I eat so much food and junk and I had just a whirlwind of days.
00:18:23.120You know, I started off in New Orleans and then went over to, to Mandeville, which I got some family and then came here to Baton Rouge, flying back to Los Angeles tomorrow.
00:18:36.760And I was thinking, you know, we had, we had our first guest last week and I want to thank everybody for supporting that.
00:19:10.620And I was glad that, you know, that I made it through that because I had a lot of anxiety about it.
00:19:16.060And I don't know if my anxiety is that I don't know what to say or I think, honestly, a lot of my anxiety is that I'm not going to be smart enough to be in a conversation.
00:19:26.740I think that's where a lot of my fear comes from when I think about it.
00:19:29.780You know, that what if I start talking about something and, you know, but I guess a nice person in a conversation, they're not going to get so, they're not going to act.
00:19:39.440I guess there's a difference between somebody being smart and acting smart.
00:19:42.700Like I'm fine if somebody is smarter than me.
00:19:45.240You know, I would bet, I would imagine probably 80% of the world is.
00:19:50.080But if somebody acts real smarter than me, you know, they're straight up hogwarting on me and I'm just trying to survive.
00:19:55.960Then that, you know, I guess that's some of my fear is that I'm going to be in a conversation and just trying to, you know, keep my head just, you know, it's like trying to just grasp for air.
00:20:10.160But we had some calls that were, that came into the, that were supposed to be on the Jay Moore episode.
00:20:14.180But, you know, as it flowed, I didn't know if we should like go to some calls or talk about the news or anything.
00:20:19.920So we just kind of made it through it.
00:20:21.460But I'm going to hit you guys with a couple of calls right here and I want to thank again Isaac George who sent in that song for the intro.
00:22:55.680And I think, you know, I don't know if I could be a nurse because I couldn't take blood out of somebody's body and not want to put it back in.
00:23:02.520I'm the kind of person, if I take it, I feel like I should return it.
00:23:05.300And even if they're like, no, I want to get it tested.
00:23:42.920And I work in a family practice clinic in South Dakota.
00:23:46.560So, you know, I have patients from two years old to 102.
00:23:49.520And we just, you know, we see patients and manage their medication.
00:23:52.580This evening when my call was on, I got a call from my mom.
00:23:56.920So, she's 48 years old and she's a nuclear medicine tech.
00:24:02.540Oh, and apparently that nuclear medicine tech likes to meet some men because if she's only 48 and your mother's calling you and you sound at least, you sound older than 17 or 18.
00:24:37.260I appreciate you sharing that with me.
00:24:39.300You know, and happy spring to your mother because I'm sure she's probably listening as well.
00:24:44.120So, you know, I got to see my mom today here at Easter and I got to see my mom and, you know, we had a kind of a sentimental moment actually.
00:24:53.960You're making me think about it, Andrew.
00:24:55.320So, I appreciate you sharing this because now you're making me think and making me feel a little bit.
00:25:01.160You know, my mom was, I was saying bye to her today and, you know, I was talking last week on the Jay Moore episode about how, you know, my mother and I never laugh.
00:25:12.180You know, and I don't know if we ever have.
00:25:15.360You know, it just, things were just stressful when I was young and so we didn't, it's just, there wasn't a lot of humor.
00:25:21.920There wasn't a lot of free joy around the house.
00:25:26.520And the TV shows we watched together, we watched America Most Wanted and we watched Unsolved Mysteries.
00:25:34.320So, I went to bed in straight up fear.
00:25:38.420My whole brain is just clouded up in that shroud of murder and espionage and, you know, long lost family members and Amelia Earhart.
00:25:47.680I mean, I swear to God, every episode of Unsolved Mysteries was about Amelia Earhart and you know that.
00:25:55.160And it was kind of wild, you know, I was saying bye to my mom today and, you know, sometimes I wonder because I haven't, you know, I do always, you know, I wasn't the most happiest about my childhood.
00:26:07.860You know, I didn't, I didn't, you know, my childhood didn't leave me with a lot of positive feelings inside of myself that prepared me or made me feel comfortable as I became an adult.
00:26:37.160But, and I've, and you know, as I've gotten older, you know, I've realized that a lot of that was because of my upbringing.
00:26:44.840You know, it was just, and I believe that my mother probably did the best job that she could.
00:26:49.880And so I just, I started to worry recently, well, you know, do I, you know, am I, am I ever, even without knowing it, am I ever, you know, just, you know, have I shown, have I let my mother know that I'm, you know, grateful.
00:27:07.000That I'm, you know, even if, even if, even if my mother never did anything for me, you know, at the very least somewhere inside of me, I have to be grateful that, which isn't true.
00:27:21.780I mean, my mother did a lot for me, but that, that I'm grateful that she made me, you know, and so whenever she was leaving today, you know, she gave me a hug and, and I didn't let her go.
00:27:33.420You know, you know, I just held on to her, you know, and I rode through that moment of uncomfort where you would usually, you know, it might be a little uncomfortable.
00:27:41.760Now we're on that second hug, you know, I'm starting to get second hug syndrome where you stay in a hug too long.
00:27:46.840And we need to do this video, and we thought about doing it last year where you hug a family member who doesn't like you, and you got to hold on to them for eight seconds.
00:27:53.720And you record it, and whoever does the best one, you know, we give them a prize.
00:27:59.460And we're hopefully going to do that again soon because nobody sent any videos last year.
00:28:03.420And that's that new professional bull riding, hugging a family member that doesn't like you for eight seconds.
00:28:10.940But so I hugged my mom, and, you know, I stayed through that first uncomfortable moment, and then I'm riding a second hug.
00:28:16.280So we're now with me and her drifting into some, you know, some new areas in that second hug, and then I stayed through that second hug moment where, you know, a hug's gone on too long.
00:28:25.300I was like, I'm fucking staying in this hug.
00:28:28.180And I stayed through that, and then that third hug, and I could feel her, she started hugging me back a little more, you know, and I knew that, you know, I just knew for a second that she knew that this was, you know, just kind of a different moment.
00:28:39.800I was just trying to create a different moment because I'll get, you know, I'll just get used to doing the same moments, you know, the ones that are comfortable, the ones that are comfortable, the ones that are comfortable, maybe not even in a positive way, but just ones that are comfortable for me that I'm used to.
00:28:55.380And so I was like, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to ride through a couple of hug breaks.
00:29:01.080And then, you know, she was leaving, and I just told her, I said, you know, I just wanted to thank you.
00:29:05.100I just, you know, sometimes I don't know if you know how much I care about you.
00:29:08.220And sometimes I feel like I get so caught up in dealing with some of my feelings from growing up and, you know, and some of my, the problems and shit I feel like, because I know I get emo on this.
00:29:20.000I know I get emo out here with you guys, but I say I, sometimes I feel like I deal with some of that so much that I forget, you know, that maybe I don't let you know that in addition to me, you know, you know, figuring some of this out and thinking about it that I, you know, I have always really cared about you.
00:29:39.580I mean, even there are times if you don't get along with somebody or you even can't stand them or, you know, in your life, there's probably really, there's probably a part of you that still, you know, that cares.
00:29:53.060Because you wouldn't, you wouldn't have as much invested on the other side if you didn't think there was something real positive to gain on the positive side.
00:30:04.580But, you know, I'm probably not going to hate somebody unless I feel like, man, if the tables were turned and we were in a better position, then I could really like them.
00:30:14.640But so I appreciate you sharing that moment, Andrew, because, you know, it's, it's nice.
00:30:19.580I think that's cool when you find out that you and your mother have some connection.
00:30:23.540There are things you guys like together.
00:30:29.540It was, everything I do, I do it for you.
00:30:35.680And because, you know, we used to clean the house to that.
00:30:38.400My mother used to make us clean the house to that.
00:30:39.880And she used to spray us down, spray that soot off of us.
00:30:43.120You know, and we would look, I mean, we looked like we were from another planet.
00:30:47.820Because when you get in those ditches and you got all that ash, you get all that, you get the black and you get the gray.
00:30:53.220And so you could do some stuff around your eyes, like, you know, make a gray mustache or, you know, we look like little, just, just like licorice critters.
00:31:03.800When we come out that ditch, mom, we get to the door and be like, oh, and mom would be like, what the fuck?
00:36:58.940And now you got to be, you know, now you and your wife got to, you know, your wife has to, you know, you're going to be in a, probably in a wheelchair most of your life.
00:37:06.280You're in, like, a uniform, you know, a robotic outfit.
00:37:10.240So, at least you just broke your foot.
00:37:11.740At least you can still stand there and tell your wife you love her.
00:37:47.240I'm just wondering if you're still doing that meditation, masturbation, where you're jerking off 50-year-old ladies in their apartments on Wednesday mornings.
00:37:57.940Well, that's not exactly what occurred, Joseph.
00:38:02.000So, if we want to look at facts, let's look at facts.
00:38:05.300And you're talking about orgasmic meditation and that is a kind of a seminar group that I got involved with where some people know about this, some people don't.
00:38:42.540But, you know, you never know if the, when you talk about the dark arts, if the words will just kind of creep out of your, out of your mouth into their, you know, into their resting brains.
00:38:52.480And I don't want to be a part of that.
00:38:54.120But thank you for asking, Jeremy and I, Joe, and I will do that.
00:38:57.860I'll talk about that at a future spot.
00:41:51.800Man, you know, I'll eat the fuck, I'll eat the damn tits off a nun on some cocaine, boy.
00:41:58.720I don't, you know, you could damn, you could, you could wash somebody's ass with your teeth.
00:42:06.120You know, I'm not trying to be too loud in here because they got family in the distance, but boy, are you kidding me?
00:42:12.540So I would, but don't take a bunch, don't get a bunch out there because you start doing a bunch and you're sitting in the hot spa and they got, you start getting dehydrated and your heart's beating fast.
00:42:38.960Because that thing, you know, that'll make you, I mean, that'll make you, you know, that'll make you, that'll turn, that cocaine will turn your tongue into Magellan.
00:44:03.420You just got to monitor what's going on.
00:44:05.000And so I think, you know, have a little hit here, have a little hit there, but don't get grammed out.
00:44:11.340Don't get grammed out and start, you know, abusing your lady or, you know, trying to start a threesome with somebody, you know, the cleaning lady or that kind of shit.
00:44:57.300Think about, think about, think of if you were just strapped on a desert island and a plane flew overhead and something fell out of that plane.
00:48:11.400I mean, there's a lot of parents I see that, you know, they, I mean, I see parents that have children that are just almost like, you know,
00:48:20.380they just get them all decked out with nice cars and nice clothes.
00:48:23.580And it's almost like they just, the kid is like an extension of them, but almost more like an advertisement for the parents.
00:48:30.360I see parents that are, seem super involved with their children, you know, and they, they just, you know, they just want to be a, you know,
00:48:41.660I guess you can't help but to want to be like a, obviously you need to be a provider, but they just want to be there for them.
00:48:47.380And they want to help them, they just want to give them the best opportunity to have a comfortable life, you know,
00:48:52.420maybe to learn from some of the things that they didn't have as a child, and then to be able to hopefully find some ways to offer those to their kids.
00:49:02.360But, you know, when it comes to adoption, I don't know, you know, I've never had anybody in my family that's been adopted.
00:49:08.220One of my buddies has, and, you know, he talks about it a little bit sometimes, you know, I can't imagine what that's like.
00:49:18.880You know, I have a friend who does foster care, and he fosters a lot of children.
00:49:23.760And that, it's always, you know, that brings, you know, that'll bring a tear to my eye sometimes thinking about that.
00:49:29.460You know, when I see pictures of him and, you know, him bringing, him and his wife bringing these people into their lives and bringing these children in,
00:51:12.200And I'm sure after you have, you know, if you have one child of your own, if you do foster, you know, help out some foster kids and maybe you'll get an idea of it.
00:51:20.160Because I have also have friends who have adopted kids like from other countries and some of that shit has gone astray.
00:51:25.960You know, one of my friends adopted a child from Russia.
00:51:28.380This little girl, the girl burned her house down.
00:51:31.820And they don't tell you that when you're reading the pamphlet on the child if they do arson.
00:55:30.800I think Tom Hanks just butt dialed me.
00:55:34.040Anyway, first rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club. Second rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club. Third rule. Like and subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. Or watch us on YouTube, yeah?
00:55:47.740And yes, don't worry. My Brad Pitt impression will get better.
