0:00

Hey guys, it's Calissa, future Calissa, editing Calissa who's popping on to say hello and I was listening to the episode back and realized that we didn't actually introduce what we're talking about. So Hannah had this idea for an episode called Hear Me Out. it's where we all choose characters, fictional or non fictional characters or celebrities that maybe aren't conventionally attractive, but maybe they have some kind of charm or personality quirks that end up making them attractive. That being said, if you're watching on our YouTube channel, 30 crying and trying, you can just search it and it should come up. you will see the video that I made and I worked really hard on it and it has all of the characters that we talk about and it has their pictures and you can follow along a little bit easier that way. This is your reminder to hit subscribe if you haven't and follow us on 30 crying and trying and Instagram. We have conversations there every Friday when we release a new episode. So that's all I got for you now. Thanks guys. On so we can now it is. Oh, good. Good. Now it's recording. Welcome back to the podcast, Nick. Hannahs are gonna be a bunch of dumb shit. No, it's not. Don't say that. Oh, for sure. It's a bunch. It's always about people. It's let, let me guess. Let's be real. Let me guess the bad guy from Milan. Oh No, I had it written down on a piece of paper before you said it in the other room Fuck you. You want to see a weird one watch this shit pose dad from Kung Fu Panda the goose Guaranteed Honestly, that was also kind of a banger that's also kind of a banger to be honest Sweet and kind of goofy. I'm guessing like, uh, the, the shark alien from Lilo and Stitch, the shark alien. Yeah. The one that was like the cop. Oh my gosh. I think it was voiced by, Oh, his voice. Oh yeah. Yeah. See, I fucking know how to play this game. All right. These are genius. I could never like, Wow, you guys are good at this. Dang. Yeah, the the flea from a bug's life or hopper from a bug's life Is it see you have authority No, I don't think hopper is I think he's a jerk of authority for you It definitely is if you're into the shark and hopper at the same time I could understand the shark I get because of the voice hopper I get because of the authority that I can understand So for our listeners who don't understand what we're talking about, we did the hear me out You And if you haven't seen the video on TikTok, I imagine it'll be out by the time so Nick got the one right the bad guy from Mulan, Mulan Sean you although his his teeth for me. It's a no You want those Vampire, vampire teeth, he would be gentle. I don't think that's how that works, girl. If you're watching on my wife, referring to a character based on Genghis Khan, the man that, the man that murdered so many people is lowered the CO2 of the planet. And I don't understand that. How does that happen? Because murdered people generate CO2. He murdered so many people that you can measure how much less co2 there is in that Generation because he killed that many fucking people So we breathe in oxygen to use in our body and we breathe out co2 and then the trees foliage Convert the co2 back into oxygen. So if there's not that much co2 in the air, there's less co2 but I thought it'd be Reduce the population but like I always see like the pop the world would be much better. Yes It's a natural part of history. This was it This was during a time where cars weren't also putting emissions and shit into the atmosphere So, yeah, and then he also had you know So many kids that like one in eight people in Asia are a descendant of him That's wild. That's like King Henry. You've got all the STDs That's way more than King Henry. That's a shame. How many did King Henry have? Not that many. A lot, but not like No, he had a lot. King Henry was on an island that was like 1, 200th the size of Asia. It's probably like thousands of children that he had, I bet. That is crazy. Anyways, what are we doing? Okay, so my I did my first Hear Me Out, which was Sean Yu. Yep, I know it. Okay, you want me to talk about my first one? Yeah, my first one is the real Norman Bates. Okay, if you google him Not only is he just conventionally sexy, but honestly the little bit of like Mentally off kind of does something for me. I don't know. No, I feel like there's a constant thing of like You people need to feel like, underlyingly threatened. Like, it's always like, I want like an angry person with authority and anger issues or like a murderer. I do meet a lot of dark romance and it does kind of get my blood boiling sometimes. I'm like, Oh, you know, that could be cool. Let me see. Let me see the picture you have. He's not unattractive. Okay. But the mental thing is what really gets to people and see, like, I can get why what's the, what's his face that killed the co eds. Um, Ted Bundy, you know, I'm not into like the unibrow thing, but honestly, I could get why if you don't actually know them, you could look past the crazy. I don't think he should ever be on a jury. What's the name? Yeah. Yeah. Probably not. Should I bring that up? If I ever get called for jury duty? I think Norman Bates is hot. Yeah. If you're hot. I'd marry Norman Bates. Yeah. I don't know. I could totally, you're not a jury. What's the, what's the meme? Women will say that the brain is the biggest sex organ and then fall in love with a guy that has to put his finger under the word for all he reads? Oh boy. What? That's rude. That's hilarious. That's rude. That's kind of true. That's pretty true. That's, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh God, she looks nervous. My first one is Captain Kragan from SVU. See, I think he should grow some facial hair to fill out and like, you know, kind of fix his baldness. I don't think facial hair would do that. Yes, because his head is so bulbous and round and large that like his jaw isn't that, his jaw isn't that big. So I think it would just like make it even. you know, I don't know. Potentially, God, I'm, I'm gonna do like studies on this I'm already developing like theories. Okay. Okay. Let's see. Your first Hear me? Yeah. Who's your voice? Who's your first one? Um, I'm gonna go with Chel from El Dorado. No. Yes, she is already hot. She's hot. Say that's not like this. That's the cartoon character though. That's not like this where like he's crazy and murders people. I mean, she was an Aztec, so I mean Yeah. But that's pretty fucking crazy. That's not how it works in the movie. Huh? Course she wasn't a murderer in the movie. She bba. Yeah, exactly. I've been trying to get Hannah to dress up as Chell for Halloween for ten years. Oh my gosh, you should! Oh god, it'd be fucking awesome. You could bleach your actual hair, that'd be cool. No. She has black hair in the movie. She has black hair. No, I thought she had blonde. You're thinking of Atlantis. Atlantis. Also her. Pretty much actually any chick in the movie Atlantis, even the girl that's the mechanic. Yeah. That's Michelle Rodriguez. If they ever did a live action, Michelle Rodriguez. The guy from Atlantis with the glasses. The nerdy one. Hot, hot, hot. Yeah, he looks like Calvin with glasses. Yeah. The entire movie. And not bald. Not bald. I mean, potato, potato. Calvin could grow hair if he wanted. Oh, and I think it would look similar to that. When I fell in love with Calvin, he had hair. Yeah. He had hair. Yeah, he had a lot of hair. He had skater boy hair. He also bleached it right after we got together. And so, yeah. He had that. Yeah. He had skater boy hair. He had the JB hair, but longer in the back. Oh, I was going to say that emo hair a little beside that would have covered the one eye. There's a reason that we were together in high school. Okay. It was because of his hair. Yeah. Yeah, and later now I find out that it's his personality and we'll get to that when we get to the end. Yeah. Okay, so my next hear me out was Mike Ehrman Trout from Breaking Bad. I, that one I don't get. Yes, I can see that. I don't know that movie or that show or whatever. If you knew, if you knew Breaking Bad you would, you would see why he does it. I know him from other things. And like, just looking at him I can't. What other things? I don't know. Other random, random movies or something. He was Dicker in The Incredibles. You can totally tell his voice. Hmm. I just mean looking at him. I'm not into it. Mrs. Incredible? Nick, no. Mrs. Incredible. Oh, Craig would say that too. You have a thing about big butts, I guess. You're making already known hot characters. First of all, men have a thing about big butts. Fair, fair, fair. Yeah, there's a reason. All right. My second one was Groot. Adult Groot specifically. No children's stuff in this house. Adult Groot. Something about his body. What is wrong with you? This is my body type. Just. Wood? Lean. Driftwood? Yep. Best piece of bark. Wood. Um, lean. And I don't know just like. He's literally wood. He kind of looks angry and I like that. I don't know. He's got a good bod. He does have a good bod. So all right so far You The men that we've chosen like they all have an angry face. Yeah Well, I'll get to that when I get my last no So this is my theory because I have oh god, this is gonna make me sound like a horrible person. What so I've to stay at home moms, yeah, and I have Nurse and the nurse seems to be attracted to like men of authority like cops men that solve problems the woman that goes out and does things and like You know fighting for her own in the world Is attracted to the man that solves issues And then the women that stay at home and do stuff are attracted to the men that cause issues Because you're all attracted to villains murderers angry guys Huh? I actually do have a theory about this just from mine and calvin's relationship so We are mean to each other like that's just who we are to each other like when we're nice to each other I'm like What's happening? Like sometimes he'll give me a compliment randomly and I'm just like, Oh, okay. I don't know what to do with that. But like when we're teasing each other, when we're mean to each other, then it's like we're in love. Hmm. So this I, and yeah, I have a, yeah, I didn't notice this until I started doing this and thinking like, I really like to read dark romance books and like, they're mean. Hmm. Yeah, hmm, and I kind of like it who study what kind of job studies this sociology Somebody do a study on us. Yeah fake pseudoscience Do a study of my brain. Okay, who's next on the all right? I can't say his last name, but Steve everybody pommel horse guy? Yes pommel horse. There we go He's on Dancing with the Stars right now. But like, it's in line with my theory, because like, that's blatantly, like, the Superman persona. Yeah. Of like, nerd that's secretly just fucking yoked. And, uh, extremely strong. So, I'm telling you, my theory is correct. All TikToks and reels of him, like, you know, he's like, cheering on his fans. teammates. And then all of a sudden his, he's like, then he like takes his glasses off. That's very Superman. It was. I was like, that's the real life Superman. It's Calissa. Oh my goodness. Wow. I'm annoyed that you're here right now telling us all these things about ourselves. I'm sorry. I'm just pointing out the obvious. Like women are constantly attracted to what they don't have. No, I have that. That's exactly what it is. Oh, that's that's not that I shouldn't say that. He's jokingly mean to you. You just said that you're attracted to a serial killer He's sarcastically play fighting with you and you're like I want to bang a man that would bury me in the backyard Ripped people's nipples off and made a nipple belt. Okay, and like make lampshades out of their skin. I'm not saying that guy Like I'm not saying I don't want someone to put my skin on and like dance around at their Halloween party Okay, I'm saying like, you know, he murders them and then he comes back and we're in love Nick doesn't like my skin. Yeah, you want you want problems in life? Yeah Don't have enough problems and you crave them You crave drama. You would be attracted to Walter White from Breaking Bad. Because you want to be the wife of a meth dealer. You know, I do like his mustache. She would handle it pretty good. A Walter Secret sweetheart, you would handle it great.'cause you wouldn't have fucking any idea. The only time what's going on. No idea. Oh boy. We, Nick and I were, I don't know. He sells bedsheets or something. you like, money comes in, the money goes out. What's the movie? War Dogs where he's like running guns in Iraq during the Iraq war. His wife is just like, huh? My husband sells bed sheets and they get in a fight and he's like, I told you I sold some other things. I thought you meant pillows Yeah, that is me like i'm even calling myself on that like I I don't pay attention All right, nick who's your next one First of all, I'd like to say I was set up and I was told that they could only be cartoon characters. So now I feel No, you can, you can pick it you want. Yeah. But now I haven't thought about it. So the only ones that I had in my head are all cartoon characters. I'm, that's fine. That's okay. We have more cartoon characters. Yeah. I got Mike Suzowski's girlfriend slash wife from Oh, with, with the snake here. Yeah. Yes. Hmm. Medusa. Interesting. That's interesting. Are you attracted to Medusa? Uh, I don't, I guess it would. Which, which rendition? I've seen a lot. I don't know, Annie Ace Bones. And that character, is her name Sylvia? It's not necessarily a snake thing that does it for me. Sylvia or something? Sylvia, Sylvia. Yeah. And she's like cuddly and nice. Does she have one eye too? I forget. Yes. Yeah. And she's got like eight legs, right? Yeah, because she's like an octopus. Oh, oh, I didn't realize oh Hannah You could be here for Halloween It should be chow for Halloween. No, I vote. Yeah, you should absolutely I'll have to look that up because off the top of my head. I don't have that. Okay, show her Yeah, show her chow chow We should rename it chowder auto Actually, I feel like we just watched that movie with the kids. I just watched it last week. That's hilarious I love elder road to eldorado. Look at that Oh yeah, with the bangs. And the big blue earrings. She's like, she looks like she's Asian maybe. She's clearly Latin American. She's from El Dorado. I don't know. Latin America. It's a mythical city. It's Aztec, so yeah, Mexico. So, wasn't there like, the Aztec, like, back, their traditions back in the day, they would, like, cross eyed was very attractive, so they would Cross eyed? Yeah, so they would put, like, crowns on kids, so they would look at the jewel, so their eyes would permanently be cross eyed. Oh, that's kind of sad, though. But that, that was once they grew up Don't, don't make this not hot. Stop it. eye thing, because, like, their eye, you know, oh, evolution? Right. And then their eyes kind of changed because like, yeah, that would be evolution. It's natural. There's no evolution. That's going to, well, I'm just saying that they wanted cross eyed and they wanted that their beauty standards were so different. So I feel like maybe. Yeah, I don't know. You can do that if you want to. You'd have to get bangs, though. Oh, wig. You wear a wig. No, they have clip in bangs. Ooh, I don't know if I'd go there. No, get the bangs. Get the bangs and the earrings. I know. And the top and the bottom. And then put it on the bed. Why don't you just take your pants off? Yeah, exactly. Kids are going to bed early on Halloween this year. Oh boy. No, we'll just give him to one of our parents. No strip be damned. King Arthur didn't pull me out at that point. Oh, disgusting. Alright, what's your next character? I did the snake lady. Oh yeah, the snake lady. Oh, okay. So, uh, Aaron Hotchner, Criminal Minds. It's his bad eyes. Next one, Reed, Criminal Minds. Next one, shamar Moore, Criminal Minds. Ooh, Reed actually is a good one, yeah, because he's kind of goofy. No, he has Actually, him in real life too. Just Matthew Gray Googler. But like, everyone just loves Matthew Gray Googler. Mm hmm. Because he's cool. Yeah. Yeah, so he's already kind of like conventionally hot because he just says I wouldn't say conventionally. He's like conventionally hot It's intentionally hot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah for true for sure, but like no one talks about Aaron Hotchner. That's true So I'm like no Aaron Hotchner deserves some love and I got really mad when he you know got fired Because he had to be a jerk and kick a writer in the leg. Yeah Goofy Yeah. Workplace violence. Yeah. You can't have that. Yeah. All right. My, um, last two go together, kind of My first one is, um, Mor Goth from Lord of the Rings is about, is this the one who the broke the sword? This is, is it this one? She, I can't remember. I can't remember like what he does in Nicola movie. Pay attention. What Mor Goth is he the one that broke? I can't remember what he does. The sword. And then the elves had to put the sword together again. So. The human could fight the ghosts with it? Is that him? You know Morgoth is the Witch King, isn't he? I can't remember. I just, something about this costume. It doesn't even have a face. It's literally a costume. I know, but he's naughty, and he has this costume. And, could you just imagine like him taking you hostage? I don't know. An orakai is very attractive. An orakai? What's that? Is that the orc and the, That's the ones that they like, they're that kidnap zombie, zombie elves, basically the big one in the dirt. You know, what's kind of hot. I didn't write this down, but, um, from game of thrones, the, um, the dead King guy, the night King, the night, the, with the blue. Oh yeah. I don't know. It's kind of hot. I'm into it. Some people said the same thing. Yeah. And, uh, the bad guy from Harry Potter. Oh, Voldemort, Voldemort. Oh, geez. No, that one is a no for me. It doesn't have a nose. Yeah. And the voice. And like the fingers. I don't like that. Yeah. I don't like that. But a costume. I can get into like a sexy helmet with some sexy armor. Okay. Ooh, if they had a cape. I don't know. Ooh. Calvin's gonna get the wrong costume. I don't know. Calvin was Waluigi last year and I was like, I could do that. Alright. Uh, my last one was Shrek. See, that's a good one. I think it's the personality thing. I think, um. And his voice. Yeah. Honestly. I kind of like him. Craig is not a big figure, by any means. He's kind of tall and lanky, but, you know. You just want him to whisper, this is my swamp and you're in it? I would be Fiona, that's all I'm saying. Cute. Human or Shrek version Fiona? I already kind of feel like the Nicholas your next one All the ones for dudes are just like well, yeah, obviously You can't like be attracted to people that aren't conventionally attractive. There's like there's like no not With like women and that's very like princess that is intentionally designed to be attractive Yes, or like that's a grandmother. Yeah, that's 7, 000 years. That's so true. There's no in between It's like I want to be like, oh Jessica Rabbit, obviously sexualized It literally any female character in any Marvel movie like I'm struggling to come up with a female character where it would be like That doesn't count because every dude does Yeah, that's you know, that's so true and I think that's really fascinating in terms of I don't know how you would describe like marketing Is that movie marketing? I'm not really sure but like sex sells. Yeah men That's how they get men to watch for women and that's why I like women watch I really don't like the kids watching older Disney movies because of the way they drew like the Little Mermaid or Meg from Hercules like it's Just not realistic just like real people too sexy something like I don't think my kid's gonna like feel that way about Wreck It. Ralph Little Penelope. This is incredible. Mm-Hmm. And yeah. Cutter will be like, look at her boobs and her butt mom. And I'm like, really? Mm-Hmm. Oh my gosh. I dunno if my kids have ever said that.

It was creepy. So, but it was really good because they. He did the one where it was like, was it a three part episode or a two part episode? I think it was a two or three part ish. So scary. Well I could have pooped my pants at that because he was, you know, when they have a really good celebrity that plays a villain, they always like extend that up or make it really memorable. That was his was really good. Wow. That was so scary. It was. Wow. That's like burned in my brain forever. It was so scary. Yeah. It's freaky. That, um, scene where it's like just his mouth. And it's like gross teeth at night. Yeah. And they put like smoker's teeth in him and then like a, like a, I think a cigarette or a cigar in him. And he's like driving in an rv, like, it's like certain music. They call him the king of darkness. Yes. Because he would, uh, turn off all the power. No, he'd wait for the power outages. It was like, um, California or something. Somewhere. Yeah. That has power outages that have, they have the planned power outages. Mm-Hmm. Mm-Hmm. So good. Scary and the criminal minds just freaks me out because they base a lot of their stories on true. Yeah So just um law and order yeah, that's for you freaky. Yeah Don't like very scary. I could see myself in an episode one day. Like just I'm, just a terrible like yesterday We have this kid and he's like I work for god. I work for a security company and I was like Okay And he's like Um, can I come in your home and just kind of take a look around and like seeing where I could put security cameras and I'm like, Um, Let me text my husband real quick. And I think Nick was home. And Nick just comes out and just immediately when people see Nick, they're like, Oh, like I ain't messing with them. You know, that's probably what they think. But he like totally kind of backed down and looked at Nick and Nick's crossing his arms like, What are we doing here? What? That's exactly what you say. You're gonna get your ass murdered cuz you're scared to be rude. I know. That's literally what's gonna happen. Be rude, be weird. I just donate to the door. I don't care if he sees me through the window. Someone rings the doorbell like I immediately hide. Who cares? No, I don't care who it is. If it's the UPS man, they'll, whatever, they'll leave the package. And that's what I think, like, because uh, he, we would get so many packages and so many of the UPS people want a signature. No, I'll tell you when they want a signature. I know. Okay Just don't even answer the door Yeah, no I'm just nervous and I couldn't yeah, but like oh my god I was like this close to maybe thinking about letting him that's crazy. Yeah, why? Did you understand did he come with like a marked vehicle? No Motherfucker, didn't he have a business card? Yeah, like it wasn't even he didn't even work for the security company. It was a fucking scammer Hannah And they're targeting you because you're in a big house. He came out You, no offense. No marked card. You big dumb idiot. No uniform. You absolutely dumb idiot. He came out in a pair of slacks and a fucking Kmart polo. No business card when I asked him. Didn't have any fucking paperwork. Didn't have shit. You absolutely Can I come inside your house and look around? Fuck no! Hannah. Oh my gosh. You shouldn't have even answered the door. It was all right. We're not going to be mean, but that was an upset dumb idiot. Sorry. We're going to move on. And I'm having a lot of political people coming to the door. Don't answer. They'll leave you a little flyer thing and then you move on. Don't, don't answer the door. Sorry. Just snipped to the microphone. Don't do it. Yeah. Just don't answer, you know, Iowa. Nice, I guess. Yeah. Well, you need to get some grit girl. You grew up on a farm. I feel like you should have some. That's the thing, like my parents always just, you know, talk to any salesman. Mmm, scary when you're on the country. Yeah, and my mom was starting to realize that. I think a couple years ago she'd be like, yeah, there's this lady and she wouldn't let me leave the garden because she like came up, saw my mom in the garden, came up to her and And then, they probably had a second person on stake in the house. Yeah, my mom swore she saw like another person who was just kind of looking around the home and she's like, What's going on? And this lady's like, Oh no, we're just insurance people and he's just taking a look around the home and everything. Like, my mom was getting freaked out. Yeah, they were probably trying to break in and steal from you. Yeah, that's insane. Yeah. One time we came home from something and it was at night and there was this kid, I don't know how, who this kid was. He was just like in or from our neighborhood maybe or something, but he was just like sitting on the edge of our garage, like to the side. And my mom just like, okay, girls go inside. And it was dark. And like the only illumination was like from our headlights driving up. And my mom had to go like talk to him and be like, get the fricking heck out of here. Oh my God. It was just some kid, some like young adult person. Sitting there and we were like, uh, was he waiting for us to come home and like do something crazy? I don't know. It was scary Mm hmm. Think about that all the time. Creepy Windows freak me out Um, I had a friend in high school and she was probably, it was probably like when we were in sixth grade and she had a guy who was running from the cops come and like bang on the door, like, let me in, let me in. You got to let me in. And like her mom, like had to block the door and like be like, call the cops and be like, Oh gosh. Yeah. It was super scary. I remember that. How old were you? We were probably in sixth grade. I wasn't there, but, um, I remember her telling me about it. I remember that. That is so scary. I don't do well with scary situations. And they were way out in the country. I mean, it would take at least 20 minutes for a cop car to get there. That's the downside of like living in the country. I don't know if I ever could for that reason. Yup. And Nick has always wanted to live like where no one was around, but I'm like, no, what if something happens and I have no one around? Well, like when it's, with him like home, it's not that big of a deal. Well, I say that it's not as big of a deal cause he can protect himself and you know, whatever. But like if he's gone and you're just there by yourself with the kids, like it's a different situation. Yeah. So yeah. But I was just like, I can't believe I did that. And like the whole time, because Wednesday is pretty much our date night, but like the whole time I'm like, Nick's like, yeah, he didn't, he didn't have a business card for you. He didn't have any brochures for you. And I'm like, no, he didn't. He didn't come in a marked vehicle. That would be my first tip off. Yeah. And then, um, he's like, and you were going to let him in our home and he was going to look around and see what we have. And I'm like, Oh my God, like, I can't believe I did that. So, Yeah, and I'm just like well, I don't know what to say because I don't want to be like, you know This person was mean let's rob them I don't know just say no. Thank you We're covered. We already have cameras. We already have an extensive security. Yeah, seriously. Yeah. We already have an extensive security system. Yeah. Look at my dog. Excited to see literally anyone that walks by. Yeah. Yeah. But tongue out and everything, like even if you have to lie, who cares? Oh, I know. I'm Nick immediately dead. He's like, nope, we're already covered. And I'm like, I told him that we weren't. I know, I had a hard time sleeping at night because I'm, I was just so freaked out and like, Oh my gosh. Yeah. And you have doors everywhere. Okay, cut that part out, Melissa. Cutting. But, you guys will see. I know, so like the whole, the whole night I was feeling icky and I'm like, oh my gosh, we're gonna get robbed. Well, you learned your lesson. I did, yeah. So, there. It sucks that it was like a real life scenario that made you, like, But, you know, that's, I feel like, yeah, I feel like they should have manuals, like how to answer the door so I can have like a step by step line script of like, no, thank you. So true. Yeah. Cause it's not like, we're not like in the era of. Um, you know when people would sell like encyclopedias and vacuums and stuff like door to door? Yeah, like we're not in that era anymore. So I feel like we don't have the kind of skills to like Tell people no, I know those kinds of situations. Yeah, which is like lacking I think for our generation for sure Yeah, so I don't know interesting to think about but yeah, because before I never answered and there's a funny reel or tiktok I like how generations answer the door And the millennial one was someone just knocks on the door and that person just like slowly, slowly slips out of their like couch and like, that's me. That's me too. I remember when I first had Gus and like, people would, why we had so many people coming to the door and it was constant, but I would, for one, I had never had pants on. Yeah. For two, like it was just me and Gus home. He was a baby and I'm sitting on the couch watching a show and I'm just like, Oh my gosh, so I would literally like crawl onto the floor and hide like under the window So if someone looked in they like wouldn't see me Scary. Yeah, it's scary. Yeah. Yeah That's how I used but I don't know. I just like I said, the mailmen are always but they knock and leave But once in a while, they'll be like I need a signature for this and i'm like, okay, here you go Yeah Yeah, but they'll have a clipboard, or like a little palm pilot thing, so like you'll know. Yep, that guy, mm mm. I know, and I just, oh, I'm an idiot. Yeah. So, scary. I've talked to my kids specifically like, Do not ever answer the door. If someone knocks or whatever, like you yell for me or you come get me or your dad, never answer the door. And even, and yeah, I did the same thing. So like when they see either of their grandmas come, they're like, well, grandma's at the door and I'm like, okay, I'm almost there. Don't open it yet. And I don't care who it is. Yeah. Unless I specifically say if they say like, Oh, it's grandma. And I say, okay, go ahead and open the door. Like do not ever I don't care if it's a police officer. I don't care if it's a fireman. I don't give a hoot Yeah, don't answer the door. Don't answer the door. Yep. Yeah, it's a good lesson Yeah, it's a real it was a really good show I hope they continue the series but it was uh Parenting kind of show and they had like all different types of family and what their parenting style is And then so they would put those kids to the test of like So let's say you're a free range parent. You just kind of let your kids do whatever no structure or whatever And they're like, okay, we're going to kind of test your theory and see how it works in real life scenarios. And they'd like, they'd have someone knock on the door and be like, is your mommy or daddy home? And they'd be like, I don't, you know, some kids just let people in and some wouldn't answer the door. And so it was an interesting theory of like their parenting styles. Yeah. And let's kind of talk about that because recently I've been hearing a lot about like Um, even when we were kids, I would say, like my mom let us go. We lived in a neighborhood that had a park, like probably, you know, through a couple of backyards. And so we would go play at the park. But like now I would never let my kids do that. So, and like we were talking about, um, some friends of ours who live out in the country have a farm. And they let their kids like go to the creek and play and just like roam around and I'm like I would have a heart attack not knowing where my kids are. So like, but that was the norm I think back, you know, like in my mom's generation. Oh yeah, we'd go jump in the creek and play my dad's kids and my mom's were kids, like, I just, I'm curious, like, what, what's changed? I don't know. Cause, uh, yeah, my parents, they'd be like, yeah, do what you want when we were at grandparent's farm. And they would have like a big barn, just a giant window, like any of us could have fell out of it. Yeah. And we never did. We never got hurt on anything. There was a pond right there. No one ever drowned. No, no one was like, there was no adult supervision or anything. See, and I kind of was saying something, it must have been to Calvin maybe. Like, do you think that people, the kids just didn't get hurt as often, or do you think that it was, it's a social media, like internet thing now that like things are just so easily accessible that we know about those situations? You know, like, are we like victims of the internet that we, and maybe now especially our kids like can't have that type of freedom or is it like something else? Do you know what I mean? I, here's my take on it. Um, there is a park right across the road from where Anders has speech therapy and I can see the park from his speech therapy room. So I could easily. Let the kids, Carver and Gannon, when I'm at speech therapy with Anders, go and play at the park. But I would, because they're of an age that they would be able to do that, that other kids would have, my parents would have absolutely let me do that. But I would be so afraid of something happening and then the criticism. That I would get like on social media say the kids got stolen, you know, everybody Oh, yes, you don't criticize and be like, why why where were you? Where did where were you all of that stuff? So that's what stops me from doing that. I guess more than I'm not afraid that they're going to get taken. I, it's very safe. I'm right there. I'm watching them. Do you know what I mean? It's just like, I'm in a room watching them and I would be afraid that they would get taken. Yeah, that would, that would be my hangup. I'd be like, if someone comes, like I couldn't run fast enough to try to stop them from taking you. And I feel like it's relatively safe and like, yeah, where you are. Yes. So that I'm not as afraid of that. I would be more afraid of the criticism if something did happen. Right. Yeah, it's, it's hard to judge. And maybe it's because, well, I know they could really hurt themselves. For me, I'm not so concerned about kidnapping. I don't know. It's just kind of like the last resort. For me, it's um, getting, them getting hurt. I've never broken a bone. I've never gotten stitches. And my brothers, they've gotten stitches. So like, I, I just see the potential, like, everything can hurt you. Yeah. And so, I just, for me, I'm just, I'm just watching them just so they don't get hurt. I feel like, though. But my parents never did that for me. I feel like, yeah, see, I feel like, especially I noticed this with Gus versus Bronson. When, I was like, always on top of Gus. For like the first couple of years of his life. And then I saw something, I think it must've been a Tik Tok or a reel or something on Facebook. Like we're putting our anxiety on them. And so Gus is like overly cautious now. Like he is afraid to take chances and I see that in him and I'm like, did I do this to you? Did I make you this way? Because I'm that way. Yeah. And I don't think that this was necessarily something that was born in me. I think this is something that was cultivated in my adult life and whatever. But I, I. I think I've hindered him in a way. So that also is like, I, there's no balance between that for me, like being afraid that they're going to be taken and like, Hovering. There's no balance for me, which is really hard. And see, growing up, I would see like my uncles, they say at one time, like, Hey, don't touch that. Or you're going to get shocked. And then they're like, okay, no more. And then it's just kind of like, if you do it, you do it. And that's kind of how my dad did it to me. Cause I wanted to touch the electric fence and he's like, don't touch it. You'll get shocked. I'm like, no, it hurts. Yep. Yep. So I bet you didn't do it again. No, I never did. So if like, I know that they can get her, but they're not going to get like. We're not going to go to the ER. Yeah. I'm like, yeah, go ahead and touch it. Like, or whatever. Yeah. He wanted my hot sauce packet really bad. I'm like, okay, I have a little taste. And then I just put like a little tiny bit on his pinky. Try it. And it, nope, never again. Yep. So sometimes I kind of like let them fail, but I, I, I supervise it. Yeah. There's a phrase that I had heard, like, um, you never are supposed to ask kids, like, If um, what is it if they get hurt or something it's no it's I forget if they're doing something that's dangerous like let them do it safely like if they're doing something that's dangerous cautiously who is that person like let them explore oh he's kind of controversial and he was he was a professor and he got I don't know he's you'll have to google it but yeah I don't know I just think that that it's a really hard concept I think you Sorry, geez, I just had a like a hiccup. Jordan Peterson. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, I just find that concept like really difficult to follow through on as a parent. Yeah. Because I want to not let them stumble and do hard things, but. Yeah, because he's all about allow children to make hurtful mistakes a little bit, but not like, not like they're gonna die or anything, but like, you know, if you do something and you break your leg, I guess. You not to do that again. I don't know. I hope you don't do that again. Yeah. And some of them just like that rush. And then I don't want the next jackass. Mm-Hmm. Yeah. I, I hated those movies. Yeah, I did too. Calvin made me watch a couple not that long ago. I couldn't stand it. Mm-Hmm. Have you ever watched of people getting hurt? I've walked once I watched it, I was way too little to be watching it. Yeah. Yeah. It's uncomfortable watching people getting hurt. I don't like it. Yeah. Other things, yeah. The other things I'm like. Seriously, like I never thought I'd see another person's feces. Ew. Yeah. Ugh. Yeah. You never thought you'd see another person's feces? I mean, not live or not an adult, like another adults. The one I'm talking about is he like pooped on a children's playhouse. I see people's poop every single day. I just can't imagine like living my life and like not seeing, not seeing people's poop. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I see. Yeah, that's so weird that other people like don't see poop every day Yeah, it's like when your norm is not my norm, you know, that's kind of crazy. That is Like I expect like your universe is so different from mine. Yeah blood and vom and stuff. Yeah That is wild. Sometimes I see other people's vomit At the bar Kelly. I'm calling Kelly out. Oh, goodness. Is she a puker? Yes. Ew. I'm like, oh, Kelly, ew. Yeah. Um. That's the only time, but. As we're wrapping up this episode, I did want to say a couple things, um, that we have a Facebook page now. So you can go like us on Facebook and we have a YouTube channel. So if you would prefer to watch us on YouTube, I think we're still working on getting them all there, but like, yes, a good handful, I would say. Yes. Yeah. Close is rocking it. I'm trying to video yet, not film yet. I just, okay. We should maybe address that. I just feel like, I don't know how we would make that work in here. Yeah. Well, just in general, like it requires so much. And I just feel like. I don't have the money to put into that. So I just don't know. Well, it's like learning the camera settings too. And then once you get your camera settings, then it's the editing. Yeah. And the audio and the visual matching the audio with the visual. It's yeah. Yeah. So there's a lot of like hindrance that goes into that, but it's still a thought that we're having. Yeah. I think it's just on the back burner, at least in my head. Um, another thing if you would subscribe to the podcast, we have listeners who listen but are not subscribed. So that would be awesome if you would do that. And then we also, who are you guys? What the heck? We also have an Instagram that we post on more regularly than our Facebook page so far. Yeah. Um, but, but now we can link up the stories. Yes. It'll be linked. Yes. So check us out. Yeah. There was just like a sound that happened as you were. Like stopping talking. I was like, oh my gosh, that sounds like background music just like fading in. It does. As you're done talking. Except I lost our background music. I was gonna say, I haven't heard our background music. Yes. Oh, I didn't even notice. I lost it. I have to, like, yes. You just said background music. I'm like, wait a minute. Yes. So what happened? Uh, so I have a folder. Oopsie. I have a folder. It's called Adobe Creative Cloud. I save everything in it. I save all of my t shirt designs. I save all of my podcast episodes. I save all of my graphics, everything in this folder. And Adobe allegedly came in in February and said, we're taking this folder away. So you guys need to buy everything out of your folder that you need and save it locally to your computer. Why would they do that? Because they don't want to support the, they don't want to store it anymore. Rude. So they apparently sent this in an email. Well, I didn't update my Adobe until like three weeks ago. Shoot. So when I updated it, the cloud, creative cloud was gone and they sent me a nice little message that we're sorry for your lost work. Wow. Thanks. Thanks Adobe. Yeah, so shoot. Music coming soon. Yeah, we'll, we'll make our own. Yeah. We'll figure that out. Maybe we'll, now that we have a Post Malone connection, maybe we'll ask Post Malone and his funny vibrato. We'll see. That could be like a bit like Post Malone, what's your vibrato like? What? And that could be our intro. See, Kalissa knows exactly what I'm talking about. I do. All right. This has been Calissa, Hannah, and Sarah. Bye!
