SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_02

Uh I was wondering what the birthday was.

SPEAKER_00

It is February 8th, 1954.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna guess you're not in 1954. No, no, no, no, no. Thank you. Oh god, no problem. Hey, by the way. Does your grandma have that birthday?

SPEAKER_00

Well, it's too late now.

SPEAKER_02

Does your Mall have that birthday?

SPEAKER_00

Side note, this unfortunately no. Side note, this just jumped to $848 next week.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, somebody's gonna be very lucky. Yes. Maybe you. It could be your new new next week. Yeah. Well, good luck.

SPEAKER_00

Your new new.

SPEAKER_02

Your jibjib, whatever you call her. I don't know. Well, I mean, or it just could be you.

SPEAKER_00

I mean, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, I guess I'm gonna take it off Scott and Alley's stories since nobody won it this week.

SPEAKER_00

That's it. Yep, you got well, we wait until next week. All right, so we gotta come back to this. See, this is why. This text right here proves my question of what is acceptable today. See, there was so much that was acceptable back in the day, but now we keep coming into, well, we can't do that anymore.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I was just wondering. I don't know if we can or can't. It's just something that I've remembered when I was a kid. I would be at a pool and my parents would shove me right in the pool. And you know it was the worst. It was less on Mark, more on Gail. Gail's the shover. No, I'm not surprised at all. So you get a shovel.

SPEAKER_00

That's all right. She got her, you got your revenge. She got drop foot and had to have surgery. So all the pain she gave you for those years, that's right.

SPEAKER_02

Karma. That's right. That's right.

SPEAKER_00

By the way, she's doing very well.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, my mom had surgery two days ago, something like that. Anyway. So I I I said, Is this still okay? Can we still do this? Can you shove your kid in a pool? And 8456 said, I guess it depends on the kid. My seven-year-old, for sure, I would push her in the pool all the time. But my four-year-old doesn't like to be pushed to the pool pool pushed in the pool. Well no, nobody likes it. But then in the minute they hit the water and their body adjusts, they're like, ha ha ha ha! And you can't get them out. You know, I think we should start pushing nobody likes it. I think we should start pushing early and often. Because do you remember do you remember being at a pool party? And there would always be the kid, like anytime you would splash them, they became a big whiny baby crybaby, and you're like, oh my gosh, little, you know, crybaby Zach. Shh, don't tell myself that.

SPEAKER_00

You might get another no this weekend from whatever.

SPEAKER_02

Listen here.

SPEAKER_00

Oh my god, you just made a fist after 20 years. Get over it. I think he's finally growing a set with you. He's gonna start saying it more. Nope.

SPEAKER_02

Nope. So anyway, so there was always there was always the crybaby at the pool party. I can't get my eyes wet. I can't get my hair wet. I'm like, your your parent obviously didn't shove you in a pool and it shows. I can't take it. I wanna I wanna be I wanna be with the kids at the pool party where they're on the raft, and I'm like, dunno. You're the shark. And then I go underneath the raft and whoosh, everybody's like, Well, see, you're the okay, but the pool bird that baby crybaby Zach.

SPEAKER_00

Don't tell them. Don't tell him. Um The thing is at a pool party, likely one of your friends are gonna do it, which you have no problem with. Really, this stems from is the guardian of the child still allowed to do it without having the county knock at the door later.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. I know. Wait, let me give you another one then yesterday. I'm at Martha Lloyd. And this I've seen this twice in one week. I'm at Martha Lloyd, and they have this like little sweets and treats shop uh in Troy. It's called the Copper Tree. Well, they had a bunch of old or older candies, you know, it's candies that you would love, like Mike and Ike's.

SPEAKER_00

It came from the bottom of your grandma's purse.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_00

Along with a cat hair.

SPEAKER_02

And here's her word, there's your original. Here's another one for kids. Can you give kids candy cigarettes? Because I was there yesterday and they had the candy cigar. They had the candy cigarette. A candy cigar? I've never seen that. Oh, you've never seen that. Okay, you probably haven't been to a baby shower in a while where they had these. But anyway, so I Unfortunately, no. So that's the second time. Saw candy cigarettes yesterday. And then when I was in East Aurora for 4th of July, went to a candy shop there, candy cigarettes again. Would you give Gavin and Lydia candy cigarettes? No. You'll push it, he'll push them in a pool, won't give them candy cigarettes.

SPEAKER_00

The optics implying lung cancer versus drowning.

unknown

Right.

SPEAKER_00

Wow, tough choice. Right. Really? That's a tough choice.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, so would you give them candy cigarettes?

SPEAKER_00

You and I know. And if anybody doesn't know, this is why I say this. Candy cigarettes is bubblegum, essentially.

SPEAKER_02

Or it's the chalky ones. Yes, or hard as a brick.

SPEAKER_00

It's either chalk or the or gum. One of the two. And if it's the gum one, that's because they wanted to make it look like it was lit at the end. Got those? But uh because the chalk ones just had like was dipped in a dye at the at the tip.

SPEAKER_02

I love those.

SPEAKER_00

But the bubblegum ones were the best. And the reason I say that is I remember as a kid when you'd blow on it, a puff of powdered sugar would come out at the end, which made it appear that you were eight and smoking a camel.

SPEAKER_02

I think they stopped doing that part because the cigarettes that I got, I'm sorry, the candy cigarettes that I got were neither of them smoked.

SPEAKER_00

They I mean But you remember that version, right?

SPEAKER_02

Yes, I do very vividly, and I loved that part.

SPEAKER_01

So I d as a kid, I'm like, Do you understand how bad Squat? Let's want to come over. I want to shove you in the pool. Let's go swing on the swings. Hi, Melissa. She's going bye. Do you want to go play hopscotch next door with Jolly? Let's go do that. How about jump rope? I'm ready.

SPEAKER_00

And you're seven. Um so no to the candy picker. Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Because this is really fun. Oh, God. Don't allow your children to listen to this show.
