Visualizing Dreams, Life Balance, and Lessons in Parenting

Ever wondered how childhood dreams could shape your future? In this episode, we reveal how the power of visualization can transform those dreams into reality, focusing specifically on the allure of real estate opportunities in Costa Rica. We draw parallels between the excitement of pursuing these aspirations and the thrill of having tangible goals from our younger years. Discover how vision boards can be more than just a motivational tool; they can be a form of self-brainwashing that propels us toward our dreams with a positive mindset.

Balancing work, health, and personal habits is no easy feat, but we're here to share some relatable struggles and insights. Whether it's the challenge of maintaining an exercise routine or the societal pressures that push us to prioritize work over well-being, this discussion is all about acknowledging the importance of self-care. Our personal stories highlight the effects of early morning routines, influenced by past relationships and demanding jobs, showing how these habits can profoundly impact our mental health and motivation.

Parenting and coaching youth sports come with their own unique set of challenges, and we candidly explore these in the final part of our episode. From the complexities of forming bonds with stepchildren to the emotional journey of coaching young kids, we reflect on the growth and learning that come with these experiences. The support of a community and the acceptance of diverse personalities offer valuable lessons in navigating family dynamics and establishing relationship boundaries.

Molly Murmur: 0:25

so last night I decided that, um, I needed a refresher of why we were doing this. Okay, and that's why I jumped online and found all of that real estate in costa rica. Um, because I really just I need to have the pictures so I can imagine it. You know what I mean? Well, that's the thing a lot of people.

Slizwaq X: 0:46

I'm like that because if I can't see it, it's not real. That's what I'm saying if I can visualize it.

Molly Murmur: 0:52

It makes it so much more tangible for me. If I can't logically explain something, I don't understand it, and if I can't see it actually happening in my mind's eye, it's not gonna well, that's the thing like vision.

Slizwaq X: 1:07

They do a lot of the heavy lifting for you. Totally, it's like, okay, you had an idea of, kind of like, what you wanted and where you wanted it to be, but then there's another guy, probably 20 years ago, he had an idea of what it wanted and where he wanted to be and he built it and it looks just exactly like what you wanted, right? So, in order to remind yourself of what you wanted, it's somewhere. So now, whenever you think of that, you've got that picture in your mind.

Molly Murmur: 1:36

Totally. That patio extension off that living room has got me wet, I tell you.

Slizwaq X: 1:48

Clean up on our 12 seriously, and that's, that's the thing. That excitement is what's gonna drive us towards the goal. Totally it's. When I was a kid I'd have to eat vegetables and stuff, but like the goal was to finish the vegetables, but like I wasn't looking forward to the completion of the goal, right, there wasn't anything on the other side to spur me.

Molly Murmur: 2:19

Like dessert no.

Slizwaq X: 2:22

I couldn't have sweets because I'd be all wound up.

Molly Murmur: 2:24

Oh yeah, your parents were smart. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah up oh yeah, your parents were smart.

Slizwaq X: 2:30

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, so you know now that, now that that, now that we've seen the half a million and the one million dollar freaking versions of our dream, I'm all in it.

Molly Murmur: 2:42

I mean you know I'm down for that half a million place too, because that thing was, I wouldn't goff at it. I love it, it's beautiful. But then I came across that one that's just right under a million, and I mean just being able to own something like that for less than a million dollars is a fucking dream. I mean it's just, but it's like a possible, it's a possible dream.

Slizwaq X: 3:06

it's it reachable it? Is absolutely reachable, I feel like because, I've wanted to freak because me sometimes I get worked up, I've got to bring it back down.

Molly Murmur: 3:15

Oh, man, but it is exciting and I need to get worked up.

Slizwaq X: 3:18

And that's the thing.

Molly Murmur: 3:19

Because I don't allow myself to get excited about things very often because I feel like it sets me up for failure. So I try not to have any expectations. So my expectations are not and because that pisses me off oh, so, much you know well you know in the secret, when we watched that you watched that absolutely.

Molly Murmur: 3:40

You know the guy that was like, yeah, I cut this picture out of a magazine because I really liked the house, right. And he said, and I put it on my vision board. And then you know, years go by and I end up buying a house after you know like I'm able to and everything. And I found my vision board in the packed stuff and I bought the exact same house I'd cut out of the magazine, right. And I'm just like, even if that's not true, that's such a fun fucking possibility.

Slizwaq X: 4:10

Well, my favorite thing is because of my background I know a little bit about brainwashing. Oh, I got a new two-box home and brainwashing my friend has got a baby.

Molly Murmur: 4:32

I blanked you, adam. No, okay, all right, what part of we're recording, did he not?

Slizwaq X: 4:39

hear.

Molly Murmur: 4:40

I'm just curious.

Slizwaq X: 4:41

Oh, I'm totally Okay. Anyway, I lost it.

Molly Murmur: 4:46

Anyway, yeah, no, I thought that was really cool, even if he's just full of shit. Oh, that's what I was going to say Brainwashing. Oh, brainwashing yeah.

Slizwaq X: 4:55

Vision boards are a way of self-brainwashing.

Molly Murmur: 5:01

I'm here for it.

Slizwaq X: 5:02

Brainwashing has a negative connotation. Sure, but I'm not going to knock it because I've brainwashed myself into doing some stuff more than a little bit, and not necessarily it's not, it's not bad stuff, but stuff that I wanted to achieve goals that I had right, just by constantly telling yourself it's, it's attainable, you can do it. You brainwash yourself and I'm down for it, I'm in yeah, you're right, it does have a negative connotation.

Molly Murmur: 5:28

However, um and I think that's how most of us survive is brainwashing ourselves.

Slizwaq X: 5:32

Exactly.

Molly Murmur: 5:33

Whether it's convincing ourselves that something is okay when it really isn't, or building yourself up to accomplish something absolutely, or to progress in life, or to get over a love loss. I mean, like we all, I call it a mind fuck absolutely that's I mean, I don't, that's I. I'm like, okay, hold on a second, I gotta mind my mind, fuck myself into absolutely believing this shit.

Molly Murmur: 6:03

A lot of people ask me but I mind fucked myself last night with those fucking, oh my god, I'm so pumped up, and that's but that it's okay to pump yourself up and there.

Slizwaq X: 6:15

A person once said if you shoot for the stars and fail, you're gonna land on a cloud, right? So here's the thing if we're shooting freaking, imagine what you could get in costa, costa Rica, for the price that you paid for your house.

Molly Murmur: 6:33

So just imagine if it didn't go up or down.

Slizwaq X: 6:36

Yeah, if you just said, hey, I'm going to go to Costa Rica, how crazy is it that you could be so much better off simply by changing your location?

Molly Murmur: 6:47

Right, I know it's wild, it is, you know, and I mean I did look at houses. I mean, like, generally, when I'm looking, I'm looking for multi family, like complexes, so we can all like have our, because I've always wanted like.

Slizwaq X: 7:03

You want a compound. I always wanted a compound, absolutely.

Molly Murmur: 7:06

I was like, if I win the lottery, I'm gonna buy myself an island and a barge and I'm gonna have a bunch of tiny homes and everybody can have a commu. We're gonna have a commune and everybody's gonna garden. There'll be a rec center, you'll have all the comforts of home just um inefficient folks.

Slizwaq X: 7:25

Well, you realize the secret of success, and what I mean is, unfortunately, what most people don't understand is that if they succeed and they don't want to help their friends, there's going to be a lonely life, because whatever level they succeed at, not everybody's going to be at that level. Even if they don't succeed, there's going to be people above and below them, and if you're just stuck in that level just by yourself because of some arbitrary amount of money that you make per year, you're going to cut off all your friends. And that's the thing that's super important to me. I don't really care how far I go. As long as I can boost my friends up, I know by osmosis, I can be there with it Totally, because, unfortunately, if you want to succeed over your friend's success, you're going to find that life is very hard well, and if that's how you're feeling, that's probably not a friend or you're not a friend maybe it's you that's what I mean.

Molly Murmur: 8:36

That's what I mean. I mean, if you're feeling like you need to outbeat somebody and be more successful for them at like a competition, you shouldn't be competing with your friends.

Slizwaq X: 8:46

You should be finding like your tribe with your friends absolutely and see one kind of hippie thing that I do and I'm not very hippie-ish, but one hippie thing that I believe is I want everybody to succeed yeah not because I can, so I can go and say, look at me, I want them to succeed so they can do the stuff that they want to do right there's something that everybody wants to be able to do if they just didn't have to work or they just didn't have to pay bills.

Molly Murmur: 9:17

I want that I would exercise, I would. I would go to the gym. I used to love going to the gym when I worked later in the day. I'd go, like you know, like I worked like 10 to 5. Okay, and so I'd go to the gym at 8.

Slizwaq X: 9:33

Okay.

Molly Murmur: 9:33

And have plenty of time to work out and shower. Oh, yeah, and get to work and just like, and I just I felt really good when I was doing that, you know, and working at 8 in the morning I am up early and I could be spending that time exercising, but I really like my mornings.

Slizwaq X: 9:52

Well, I'll give you a prime example I like to work out, but I don't like to work out. I like to look good, but I also like food. I really like food Sometimes I really have a problem with working out, cutting into my eating time, and it's I smoke cigarettes.

Molly Murmur: 10:15

It cuts into my morning smoke time.

Slizwaq X: 10:17

Well, like I got up.

Molly Murmur: 10:18

Eating cuts into my smoke time sometimes.

Slizwaq X: 10:20

I was up this morning at freaking 6.45 am on a Sunday.

Molly Murmur: 10:26

I also was up about the same time.

Slizwaq X: 10:28

I am a retired person with nowhere to be, and what the fuck am I doing up?

Molly Murmur: 10:34

Well, I think my problem is because for the longest time I worked like 5 to 2. 5 am to 2 pm, and I also had a boyfriend at the time that kept me up.

Molly Murmur: 10:47

Well, okay, so I had not in a good way, oh okay, yeah, unfortunately not in a good way. I'm like, yeah, first of all, lexi's dad used to fight with me all night. He'd get blacked out drunk and he'd fight with me all night, and so then I get rid of him and I finally, I think, got some rest during my second marriage.

Slizwaq X: 11:05

Hey-oh.

Molly Murmur: 11:05

And then when I got rid of him, I ended up with that guy that just I mean like I worked from 5 to 2, and he would keep me up till like the fuck is wrong with him 1 or 2 in the morning, fighting with me and would not let me go to sleep. I literally lived on Adderall for like a year just to fucking function throughout a day. See, that's, it was brutal, but anyway, I'm so used to my schedule. From from the time I was with lexi's dad until about six years ago, my schedule was super early in the morning to to early in the afternoon you know, and uh, and so I'm just like I'm programmed that way.

Molly Murmur: 11:47

I hear that, so I just wake up, naturally at like 4.30 in the morning.

Slizwaq X: 11:53

I'm just getting now. It's frustrating. Well, I'm just getting now to where the point and I'm sure my lovely wife Kelly hates it where I'm institutionalized. I'm now getting to the point where when I wake up, it's not like rawr, oh, that's good, Because I get up, doesn't matter what time I'm used to. Okay, you're up, let's rock, let's grind, let's get this money.

Molly Murmur: 12:23

Adam's that way he's a floor hit the ground. He does so much of the like housework and stuff and it's done before I've smoked my morning cigarette.

Slizwaq X: 12:33

That's because it's, it's. Don't get me wrong.

Molly Murmur: 12:36

No, I used to be a ground running. Didn't need coffee or caffeine or anything. I just woke up ready to go, threw my face on, did my hair and went to work and just rocked it all day without caffeine, Just like what up bitches?

Slizwaq X: 12:48

We're getting this money out here.

Molly Murmur: 12:51

And then depression happened and that's really when I started needing my mornings. I just needed time that was quiet for me to ease into the day, and I really appreciate that time.

Slizwaq X: 13:04

Well see, that's the thing For me depression and I have experience with depression, anxiety but for the longest time it wasn't a thing, and what I mean is it's like oh, you don't feel good today. That's tough shit.

Slizwaq X: 13:21

You're gonna, we're gonna go out here and get this money anyway, and that's not me talking to me, that's other people saying you don't have a problem, fucking, get the fuck out there and do it. There's nothing wrong with you totally. And as I've gotten older I'm realized there might be a problem with me seriously, I don't call in sick to work.

Molly Murmur: 13:48

You know, I just I don't call in sick to work. I go to work no matter how I'm feeling, and that's. It wasn't until maybe this last year that I have called in sick. There have been times I've been sent home because I was sick. Mark's like I don't know why you're here, you just need to go home. Well, and I'm like yeah, cool well, it's not I will. I will gladly get sent home, but calling in sick and letting somebody down yes, especially myself.

Slizwaq X: 14:16

That's not what we're doing here and that's that's the thing.

Molly Murmur: 14:19

If you get sent home, okay yeah, that's on you, that's not on me. I came, I showed up exactly.

Slizwaq X: 14:25

I'm here for it. I don't understand how people like well, I freaking got turf toe, I can't go to work, and that's, that's cool that your, your employer, will allow you to do that. But what I think of and this is the wrong way to think of it, and I'm working on it I instantly think of if I take a day off, I'm not going to be able to make money that day.

Molly Murmur: 14:48

Well, and I am in a different boat now because I'm on salary and I've been on salary for the last six years, but I still have that hourly wage mentality.

Slizwaq X: 14:59

Exactly, Exactly. They're like oh, these motherfuckers.

Molly Murmur: 15:02

I'm not going to be able to punch my card. I'll never not have that mentality.

Slizwaq X: 15:05

I'll never not have that mentality and there's a certain level of that mentality. That's good and healthy, but I think in our era a lot of times that was overemphasized to the part where it wasn't healthy. Now there's mental health days. Yes, there's freaking maternity leave for dudes.

Molly Murmur: 15:25

And this is important, this is important, it is important, this is important because basically, you just produced another human. There's gonna be some stuff that you can't do for the very next day I do think they call it paternity leave for, for dudes, just so you know I'm still in protest.

Slizwaq X: 15:40

I'm still calling it maternity leave why is?

Molly Murmur: 15:43

why are you protesting?

Slizwaq X: 15:44

Because dudes have to realize because we run into a thing in the army or, excuse me, in the military, where you can take any day off that you want as long as you've got a valid excuse. Dudes always take time off for the week after their freaking wife is pregnant. You know how I bust them out. I go on Xbox Live and see if their gamer name is on there, so I know they ain't doing shit. Their wife's over there.

Slizwaq X: 16:11

I need help and they're like so, and that's why I call it maternity leave, because it's not for them. You're there to help your wife do the shit, because you made her produce another human. Now she's all jacked up and you need to be there to assist her. Yeah, you're not there.

Molly Murmur: 16:32

It's not free to ask and you should want to be.

Slizwaq X: 16:35

That's another thing you should want to be.

Molly Murmur: 16:38

I mean, you have a brand new little human that you're responsible for. You should take a week or two and bond with it. You know, you know, dudes, I know I do appreciate the exposure of the toxic masculinity, because I think that it is actually opening doors for men to actually feel things in a more normal way, absolutely 100%, and I think that's a good thing I am. Some people think it makes you know this generation pussies or something.

Slizwaq X: 17:11

Well, there's limits. Totally, by and large, that people, okay, are more, are more kinder in general upon the realization that grinding 20, so 47 while commendable and it's one of those things that's been built into the american culture, in the 40s and 50s they were actually giving people amphetamines and saying you're doing great jobs and that culture is unsustainable. You can't grind until you retire. You can't. You've got to freaking be able to use your brain instead of your hands at some point, and that's the healthy part of it is you should be able to transition to where you're using your mind more as opposed to your hands. When I joined the military as a diesel mechanic, I plan fully to work to spin wrenches and fucking be out there getting greasy for 20 plus years yeah, that's, that's, that's not realistic, right that's it's not.

Slizwaq X: 18:26

And as I get, as I get older and I'm exposed to more society and different things, I'm finding out that that's a pipe dream. Well, it's commendable if you want to do that, right it's not the thing that it's not sustainable. Yeah, it's not sustainable thing that people are.

Molly Murmur: 18:41

It's not sustainable.

Slizwaq X: 18:42

Yeah it's not sustainable, right? That's one of the reasons why I say you guys are helping me so much to freaking, deal with that, to freaking kind of pump my brakes a little bit, because let me tell you, boys, I'm out of control. I got 24 hours in a day and I can use them up any way I want to. Yeah, that is too much freedom, right, because I will just get in there and be like, okay, I got 24 hours today. We can devote 22 and a half hours to this thing Right?

Molly Murmur: 19:12

Just balls to the wall, just balls to the wall?

Slizwaq X: 19:14

Yeah, Until it's done.

Molly Murmur: 19:16

But unfortunately it's not sustainable, right, and I was the balls to the wall. I never called in sick, I had to be sent home and everything, and in the last few months I've been getting these really like debilitating headaches and like to the point like I shouldn't drive. Really, yeah, like I'm kind of dizzy and off kilter and it just hurts. Are you seeing a guy about that?

Slizwaq X: 19:42

well, I went to the doctor last.

Molly Murmur: 19:42

Okay, okay, um, oh, that's right, yeah, so that was for part of that. I, we addressed that as well, but um we worry about you, I thank you, I worry about you guys, um, but yeah, I just um always go, go, go and and, like I said, in the last year, I finally realized, realized that, like I get the same paycheck whether I'm here or not, my biggest hang up is I'm the only assistant in an office with two busy attorneys. And so if I don't go to work.

Slizwaq X: 20:11

There's going to be a lot, a lot to do. I hear you.

Molly Murmur: 20:16

And one of them is very high maintenance. You know maintenance. You know she's getting better. Though she is getting better we love her yeah, she's.

Slizwaq X: 20:24

I have to say like, um, I feel like we've fallen into homeostasis the last few months I gotta give it up to to to that individual, because there's there's a lot of people out there that are fucking fucked up like a football bat, but when you tell them, they get offended Right and they don't realize that you're telling them not because you want to be a dick or you want to fuck, right?

Molly Murmur: 20:49

I'm not trying to hurt your feelings, I'm just trying to be real with you. Exactly that. Maybe you should work on this because you'd be a lot more palatable as a human.

Slizwaq X: 20:57

Exactly Right. And it's not like we hate your guts. It's like if they didn't like you, they wouldn't tell you. They'd be like fuck that bitch.

Molly Murmur: 21:05

Yeah, we just won't hang out. Exactly, exactly. I'll leave your bitch ass at work. We're work friends.

Slizwaq X: 21:16

We meet at Bennigan's only, and I commend that because I was one of those people that it's hard working for a friend you couldn't tell me nothing yeah. You couldn't tell me, and still to a little extent. Sometimes you can't tell me nothing, but like it's all about the approach. You know, and it is, it is and I, you know, I have to realize If I had an issue with you.

Molly Murmur: 21:40

I know I could come to you and talk to you about it.

Slizwaq X: 21:43

Oh, absolutely.

Molly Murmur: 21:44

Even if it was hard for you to hear. Oh, absolutely my approach and the way that I would handle it. You wouldn't feel like I was trying to tear you down.

Slizwaq X: 21:53

Well, you know what I mean. Absolutely, because that's not how I do things, but that's the way it should be, though, yeah, because way it should be, though? Yeah, because unfortunately, what people don't realize is that you can't talk to everybody the same way no, because everybody's different exactly I learned that reason children I've never heard, I know, we'll get back to that. That's a story I'll tell you guys one day I remember, though, um like okay.

Molly Murmur: 22:21

So I was married the first time to the kids's dad, and shana and jasmine were my stepkids okay okay, and luxie is my biological, but she's biological to them through their dad yeah right.

Molly Murmur: 22:33

And then I got divorced and, um, the girl stayed with me for a little bit and then shana came back and lived with me for a couple of years, like later on, after she was an adult, um, but um, in between then and that, um, I remarried and he had a son and I just really beat myself up one end and down the other for not feeling the same way about him as I did. My stepdaughters we didn't use that word step that wasn't really allowed.

Molly Murmur: 23:06

Like you guys are my kids period you know, I love you and I loved Matthew, but my ability to connect with him and my ability to bond with him and my ability, like my patience with him, he was difficult. He's on the spectrum, he's asperger's, you know. So I guess asperger's isn't a spectrum thing anymore. But I call bullshit people you don't. Just because they're kids doesn't mean you have to like them absolutely I.

Molly Murmur: 23:33

I didn't know that yeah, I didn't know that either. It took me a while and some life experience to figure that out, and and I liked Matthew most of the time. But if I had to save one out of the four kids, he'd be the last on the list.

Slizwaq X: 23:50

Fair enough.

Molly Murmur: 23:51

You know, womp, womp In order. It would be Lexi Shana, jasmine Matthew.

Slizwaq X: 24:06

We're not saying you wouldn't, you wouldn't save him, but he would be the last one up the ladder.

Molly Murmur: 24:10

I would try, but if, if one of us had to go though, bye, matt, sorry about your luck. No, and I do love him, he's, he's. He's actually turned out to be a pretty good adult too. And that's freaking. I got a kink in my back and it hurts.

Slizwaq X: 24:27

That's good shit.

Molly Murmur: 24:28

But yeah, no, I just realized like, oh, just because they're kids doesn't mean you have to like them. You know this chick that I know I'll leave her nameless. She has a kid that I know. I can't fucking stand that kid. I'm not even joking like I cannot stand that child. I mean, if ever there was a school shooter in the making, it's that motherfucker oh, oh man he is just not okay. And he comes from stock. That is questionable.

Slizwaq X: 25:06

Fair enough.

Molly Murmur: 25:07

But not because they're bad, you know, just because they're just they struggle, they're out there, they struggle Okay. You know. But yeah, I just, and I'm just like and that was another lesson in that realm of time too, where I'm just like, you know, kids are people too, and you don't have to like all people.

Slizwaq X: 25:27

And see, I've had a different experience with kids, but for the most part I treat most kids like they're miniature adults.

Molly Murmur: 25:37

I think that that is actually pretty healthy. I don't think that that's a bad thing.

Slizwaq X: 25:44

Okay.

Molly Murmur: 25:44

We need to prepare our youth and not shelter them from all the shit. We need to prepare them for adulthood and I was never baby. I would never baby talk my kids. And when Shana and Jasmine would have like fake names for blankets and bottles and pacifiers and they would baby talk to Lexi when she was born, I'm like can you just use the real word?

Slizwaq X: 26:04

that just sounds absolutely retarded. I don't even know if baby talking was allowed at my house.

Molly Murmur: 26:12

Baby talk was not a thing in my life, ever. I don't think I don't know.

Slizwaq X: 26:17

I remember doing baby talk one time and my dad is like you're not fucking retarded, you're not going to get the change in the canister buddy, let's fuck. I'm like okay, and I just took it for granted. But when I told somebody else that they were like, what did you say to me? And I didn't realize that people weren't telling people that.

Molly Murmur: 26:45

I am not into baby talk. It is not my jam.

Slizwaq X: 26:49

Well, as I get older, I will say that I do baby talk my dogs.

Molly Murmur: 26:52

Oh, you do, do that.

Slizwaq X: 26:53

I fucking baby talk the shit out of them.

Molly Murmur: 26:55

Yeah, you do, and actually I do to my kitten.

Slizwaq X: 26:59

It's the most ridiculous thing and Polly. Because I would never baby talk to a kid. You know what I'm saying I mean. Well, I probably would baby talk to my grandkids.

Molly Murmur: 27:10

Yeah, I'm pretty straight with with Rain and I'm straight with all of them. I talk to them like they're little humans, like little adults.

Slizwaq X: 27:18

Yeah, it's like, look here, you know age appropriately.

Molly Murmur: 27:21

But yeah, yeah you know, like you keep running your mouth like that, you little motherfucker, I'm going to fuck you up. Well see, I've been learning. I'm going to bounce you into next week. I've been learning. You don't do that to a three-year-old.

Slizwaq X: 27:32

You know, like that's not something you can do.

Molly Murmur: 27:34

But you know a 17-year-old.

Slizwaq X: 27:37

Oh, hell, yeah, Whoop that ass I'll get in your face. You know college. One of the things that I thought was so cool is that my coaches like when I played like t-ball and stuff like that took time out of their busy schedule to freaking show us how to do the sports ball that's cool so when I turned 18, I went off to college. I I signed up to coach the sports ball nice, you didn't.

Molly Murmur: 28:06

How'd you do?

Slizwaq X: 28:07

I did okay. I think I did okay but look on your face. A couple of times like my first, because I first I started with soccer. I started with five and six year old boys and girls soccer. And, uh, after my first like practice session, my first meeting with the kids a group of the moms came and asked me if I had any kids and when.

Slizwaq X: 28:34

I said no, they said we knew that we're going to show you some stuff, because I didn't understand how I could be talking to a kid. They could be looking at me in my face and not understand the thing that I was telling them. They're like, oh, you know they're not listening right. I'm like they're looking right at me. They're like oh, you don't know.

Molly Murmur: 28:58

Yeah, no, so they. You have about five seconds before they tune the fuck out.

Slizwaq X: 29:04

Those moms ensured that. Those, because one of the moms told me like was like, look here, you signed up to coach. I need this time. Yeah, you're gonna give me that time. There's no backing out, buddy, but those ladies, they taught me so much about kids because I was the first.

Molly Murmur: 29:31

Don't you love that they just like put themselves in coach mode to help you be a better coach?

Slizwaq X: 29:37

I am so glad that they did, because the first practice, because they could have been really shitty and been like you clearly don't have any kids.

Molly Murmur: 29:44

The first practice Get the fuck out of here, coach. Oh man, yeah.

Slizwaq X: 29:48

A couple times I yelled at those five and six-year-olds. I was like what? You can't? Yes, yeah, yes. But they took me aside and I appreciate them. They took me aside. They were telling me all kinds of weird stuff, like, oh, you know, you're supposed to bring oranges Right. Like, oh, you know, you're supposed to bring oranges right and you're supposed to bring Gatorade too. You need to get yourself a cooler. And then I'm like they're not going to you guys. They're like no, you provide the Gatorade and the oranges, we'll do it at the game, but for the practice you provide it. I'm like well, all right, all right.

Slizwaq X: 30:29

And now don't get me wrong, I don't know if other coaches did that, but by the end of the season those kids loved me, as opposed to the first day. I thought all those kids were going to gang up on me and fucking kill me. That was. We had a little break when my freaking screen shut down. I had to freaking restart the recording. But I think we got enough. Awesome, I think we got enough for the shiz crap, because we're at what that wasn't terrible content either.

Slizwaq X: 30:52

No, I think we might be able to repurpose a little bit in froggin' rock and roll.

Molly Murmur: 30:56

Yeah, I think so.
