Megan:

Thank you, welcome, welcome. Welcome everyone. We are back slipping it in with you. Welcome, welcome, welcome everyone. We are back slipping it in with you. If you haven't done so already, please subscribe and follow us wherever you get your pods and please share us with your friends. So it's a Friday and we're recording our pod and I've had a crazy, crazy week. Basically, I found out this week my dad is a criminal. According, to. Canada, really what? Oh Canada, what a criminal.

Matty:

Affording to Canada. Really what, oh Canada? What happened? Is he going to get deported?

Megan:

I don't think he's allowed in Canada at this time being Well. I took my parents to get their nexus, is this the printouts?

Matty:

Yeah, I've got printouts here.

Megan:

There is some documentation, yeah, evidence, so I took my parents to the Canadian border to get their Nexus and for people who don't know what Nexus is well, I love it because it gives you TSA pre-check and global entry all for $50.

Matty:

$50. Yeah.

Megan:

But the caveat is you have to go to a Canadian border and do an interview, now the interview lasts like five minutes. It's a quick one border and do an interview, now the interview lasts like five minutes. So I took my parents so they didn't have to drive to the Canadian border, which is downtown Detroit underneath the bridge, and, um, we went there for their interviews. Now my dad's interview, which should be short, started off Rocky, because they're like now why want nexus? Like do you come to canada a lot?

Matty:

he goes, no, never oh no, and I'm sitting there like oh my god like just also you were in the office.

Megan:

Well, I was probably a little questionable.

Matty:

They didn't really want me there, but I said I'm the driver oh, I'm sure you weaseled your way right in there, so I said I'm the drive.

Megan:

Well, it's just like uh, it's not like a. You go into an interview room, it's just literally like a glass door like a bank teller, so you just stand there talking.

JJ:

I've been in there. I've been. I remember that on my days that I lived in canada yeah.

Megan:

So then they then they're like well, why do you want nexus? Because it's so you get this, you can drive to canada within these fast lanes. And then he's like well, I do go fishing sometimes, so like, they seem that, like seem to be like smoothed over, and then they're like okay, just sit down. And then they like send his application off to the canadian people, because you talk to the american border patrol first and then it goes to the Canadian Border Patrol. Well, then they come back and they're like so in 1964.

Megan:

Oh my God, Stop Really In 1964, you had an assault at Lansing Community College. And he's like, oh, it's a snowball, fight Shut up yes.

JJ:

I mean 1964.

Matty:

Wait, was he assaulted or he assaulted somebody's a snowball? Fight Shut up. I mean 1964. Wait, was he assaulted or he assaulted somebody with a snowball? He?

Megan:

was the one that assaulted someone and the guy's like.

JJ:

It's a cold case.

Megan:

Exactly 1960. Border Patrol agents. Just like well, we just it's showing up weird Like you're, we need you to give us a disposition order. And I'm like, well, I don't understand. And my dad's like, yeah, it was a snowball fight and they put a note on our car and said we had to come to the police station. So he's like I went to campus police and they said just plead guilty, and I paid a twenty dollar fine, Wow.

Matty:

That doesn't seem equivalent to assault.

Megan:

Well, exactly. Like it's really questionable exactly like I'm like well, when I was in michigan state we did a lot I got an mip and I paid a fine and then when I was applying for the bar exam, I was like I didn't know how to like disclose it on my application. So I called the police and they're like oh, oh, that's a civil infraction.

Matty:

We don't even track those you don't need to say anything about it.

Megan:

Well, anyway, so then I'm trying, like I have to find this disposition order and I like called the courts, I did searches, so finally I had to go do pull a criminal background check on my dad like with the state police this might warrant a full episode?

Matty:

well, it doesn't.

Megan:

Oh, this is the printout yeah, so I got his criminal. It cost me ten dollars. I got his criminal report which shows he was charged he consented to the release of this info, so hopefully he doesn't listen okay, well, vicky's on him, chances are yeah, he like pled guilty to like a first degree or I don't know the degree it doesn't say the degree, no, just assault.

JJ:

Oh, geez, assault, it was a snowball, it's snowball.

Megan:

Fight, it's crazy.

Matty:

So now someone dies.

Megan:

And it was through the Michigan State University campus police who I really think shouldn't be telling young college kids just plead guilty when it's a snowball fight.

Matty:

Well, this was the 60s. Well, I agree.

Megan:

So now I have to deal with calling the Michigan State campus police to try to get some order that probably doesn't exist. So, who knows, my dad may not ever be allowed in Canada.

Matty:

So he was not granted no fish, no no, if I give them this order in 30 days he'll get it.

Megan:

Meanwhile my mom will get it.

Matty:

So you and your mom can just travel alone. What have you been up to?

Megan:

JJ, Not as heavy as being almost a criminal in Canada. I know who knew.

JJ:

I'm a criminal to being creative. I've been being creative lately. I kind of step out of my comfort zone. Um I, I. I think I've mentioned it on the pod before doing COVID, I kind of started into like chalk drawings on the driveway.

Matty:

We talked about it.

JJ:

Um and um where I live in the city I live in Berkeley they had this art street art festival and they have a chalk art competition and I was like you know what? Why not? So I signed up and I had a great time. I did not win, but it was the best. I mean, honestly speaking. I was telling Maddie that that it was such a great experience that I would do it again even if I don't yeah, the whole experience of me being there.

Matty:

What you created was beautiful. It was amazing yeah.

JJ:

And it was a great experience. I mean, it started as a very hot day and it ended up being like pouring, like it was insane. Yeah, it was.

Matty:

I mean. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all of the drawings got washed away. I think all of the drawings got washed away.

JJ:

Yeah, pretty much Like a tsunami. It was a tsunami Like White.

Megan:

Lotus would say Well and there was a tsunami warning this week in Alaska.

Matty:

The more you know.

JJ:

I wonder if, now that you're saying that, All right, you too. I know, but now that you're saying that, I wonder if that was the same rain that the mall nearby got and got flooded.

Megan:

No, I think that was a broken water main break. Oh, got it Underneath the mall, malls are dying and we had a mall on the verge of dying and now had a water main break, so I think this could seal its death yeah probably yeah, yeah, okay.

Matty:

So I know you're dying to know what I was up to.

Megan:

I've been shoveling.

Matty:

I've been shoveling more fucking river rock.

JJ:

Oh God.

Matty:

Speaking of water and river, I got about a month ago five tons. That's not an exaggeration, that's an actual measurement. Five tons of rocks put into my driveway. I'm down to about, I would say, one and a half tons to distribute. That's amazing. Yeah, it's just, it's, it's my life. I work until I don't work and then I rock it and then I I eat.

JJ:

Go to bed, yeah but it looks great, yeah, it does.

Megan:

It looks really really good. Hopefully you still have places for that rock to go. Oh, you do, yeah, yeah, I mean you have a great driveway for 2026 yeah, yeah, I can't pull up, yeah, it's cut off.

Matty:

You know, like halfway up my driveway.

Megan:

Well, if you're shoveling those rocks, I've got a psa for you. Kfc is giving out free buckets of fried chicken. Well, I feel like everyone needs to know. Kfc is afraid that people forgotten how good their chicken is and they're giving out free connection between the rocks and well because when you're shoveling all those rocks, you get hungry yeah, you gotta grab, grab a drumstick quick.

JJ:

Piece of chicken megan wants kfc to sponsor us oh wow, I would love that as well. Who wouldn't want?

Megan:

that they have tenders now and chicken sandwiches but, anyway, okay order kfc on their website or their app and if you spend 15, you'll get a free bucket of eight pieces of chicken.

Matty:

I will also have something it's a PSA. Before we move on to the meat of the episode, I've got a little reveal.

JJ:

Yeah, I know it was.

Matty:

Let me give you a little reveal, a reveal we have a reveal. I've got fresh rots. Oh my god, I love it. Fresh rots for JJ. Fresh, fresh rots for JJ.

JJ:

Fresh pretzel rots for JJ. Let me do a little ASMR, oh I love that Do you like that pretzel rot.

Matty:

Are they too fresh for you? They're so good.

JJ:

Wow, I love that.

Matty:

Oh my God, if this doesn't make sense to you, go back two apps and listen, jj loves his rots.

Megan:

The pressure rots.

Matty:

Oh my god, maddie, thank you.

JJ:

This is the best episode so far.

Matty:

You're welcome. Now are those fresh rots.

Megan:

I missed the fresh part.

JJ:

Well, they're like tantalizing me what were you expecting? That Maddie Will go to a bar and try to get the rods from there? I thought he could have gotten the rods from the bar.

Megan:

They're the dirty rods, cold case rods, so he likes them to sit out for a couple of days.

JJ:

I do like me a fresh rod We've got to move on.

Matty:

We've got to move on. We're going gonna change things up a little bit. Um, speaking of chalk, which you were talking about, that, was one of my past pull it outs.

Matty:

Yeah, you don't. I just I don't like chalk, and if you're a new listener, what we do, uh, typically every episode is we wrap up at the end with one of our slip. It ends one of the things that we just are really vibing on and like or gravitate towards, and then we do a pull it out. Quite the opposite irritation, annoyance, something we just don't like. Well, what we thought we'd do, we're on episode 11. So we've done 10 episodes. 10 episodes are in the bag.

Matty:

We thought we would take a little look back at the first 10 episodes and pick an item or two from each of us, that we would take a little look back at the first 10 episodes and pick an item or two from each of us that we would bring back for a little bit deeper dive. Because the thing about these is that once we hear what one of us says about one of them, we're like, oh my God, I could talk to you about ours for this. But we move on, we, we spend a minute maybe at most, and so now we're gonna, you know, like peel back a layer or two. So I'll get us started. I think it was episode five, but um, jj, you, as one of your pull it outs said I hate the term poppy. Well, hate is a strong word.

JJ:

I think that was what you used.

Matty:

Roll back. Do we have the transcript? Roll it Either way. You didn't like it.

JJ:

You made it clear you weren't happy. I strongly dislike it.

Matty:

We're going to get into it, we're going to give you a platform to speak about it. But let me start by saying to the audience and I think I got a little of this out in the moment but I was shocked because, um, in our relationship we had henry, our joint dog, and every year for christmas or jj's birthday, when I would go the extra step and have a card from the dog, I would always put poppy on the card and jj loved it.

JJ:

I thought it was when you remember the birthday. Yes, I didn't always get it, but here's the Like.

Megan:

Were you really inside Like having all?

JJ:

this disdain Correct? I want to know Well, can I speak now? No, so yes, you can. I want to say yes. I do Let me set it up a little bit more and then just ask a pointed question.

Matty:

I like to set the groundwork. Let me ask a pointed question, that's a lot of groundwork. So the question is at its core, and we can get into some other variations of what it means.

Megan:

At its core.

Matty:

It means dad or daddy, and in the context of our dog, you were his dad and in previous episodes you also like the term daddy, so I'm struggling.

Megan:

Help us understand.

Matty:

What does the word to you when you you hear it? How does it land with you and what? What do you? What emotions does it evoke that are not positive for you?

JJ:

well, there's two things. The first thing I have to say in regards of henry and how I was fine with it is because there are many times not always, but there were many times that you will spell it differently for me. Yes, you will put P-O-O-P-I.

Matty:

Never. I've never put that's poopy Correct and I have never.

Megan:

This is not true, I don't think he would have wrote poopy, never would I ever.

Matty:

There is a flag on the plate he is college educated, no Correct.

Megan:

I think he would have known better. It's always been.

Matty:

P-A-P-I, and I don't know what you're talking about.

JJ:

That is not true, like I think that you would do it like a puppy type of thing.

Matty:

No, I could say P-O-P-I. I would accept that. Now I will say this. I would write it as if I was a dog.

JJ:

P-O-P-I, but he's writing as Henry.

Megan:

Henry is not very good with those furry paws. I do the same thing for the doctor.

Matty:

You might have thought an A was an O, but to Megan's point. I am educated. I've never did poopy or pop on, so it's always. But carry on.

JJ:

Okay. So in my mind I saw in that part, it's fine, I got it from Henry. Okay, so in my mind I saw in that part, it's fine, I got it from Henry. The Poppy thing, I think, is a trigger to my heritage. Okay, that kind of labeling me as a Hispanic guy, which is fine. I mean, don't get me wrong. Wrong, and if you're listening and you're part of the hispanic community, I am very proud of it.

JJ:

But it felt, I think that it's just typical, made very, very stereotypical, putting a label on you because, yes, heritage yeah, and I think that it maybe didn't mean that much until I kind of got myself into the gay community and they use Poppy to be like a term of endearment and it's not really a term of endearment for me.

Matty:

For you.

JJ:

It doesn't do anything that they call me Poppy. I'm like who are you trying to impress here? You?

Matty:

know that. That community thinks they are being cute with all of that and also probably complimentary, but like I get it. Like, if you don't like it, you don't like it. But like, let me ask you this Like I know that you're a big J-Lo fan.

Megan:

Yeah, she loves that poppy track. Oh, she has a poppy song, oh.

JJ:

I know.

Matty:

Let me give you the lyrics my is shining bright, even if he ain't by my side, he makes sure everybody knows. Now I'm his baby and he's my poppy. He is my poppy. I love my pop I love my poppy.

JJ:

Yeah, do you like that? And I love the song oh, you love the song yeah, but I don't want people to call me poppy.

Matty:

This is what I see. This is the beauty of bringing the topic back up. Like you don't have a problem. What I'm learning and I'm not putting words in your mouth. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I feel like my takeaway is is that you don't mind the word as long as it's not being applied to you or a descriptor for you. Is that fair or no?

JJ:

Yeah, and don't get me wrong, and I mean if I, if somebody calls, me poppy I'll, I'll accept it, they're not gonna get blocked for now wow.

Megan:

Well, that's saying a lot. Most people get blocked for saying hi again.

JJ:

That's a different topic. She's got a point. Well, exactly but I, I, it's, it's not I some most of the time if I'm interested in that person that is calling me poppy. I was corrected. I said don't call me poppy well, okay, so I was good.

Matty:

I thought I was gonna get a different response, so I was gonna have to take it deeper. Oh, I was have to. I was gonna have to go deep, like bad bunny deep, but I won't. Because now I now that I understand how your relationship with it, because talk about a papi and like he embraces it and uses it and loves it and I know you're a big fan and like I'm a big fan, so I was going to be, like if for nothing else, let's accept it for the BB, but I do think that with Bad Bunny it's a marketing thing for him too.

JJ:

Oh, I'm sure he's a celebrity J-Lo too, I mean years later she goes.

Matty:

I'm not your mama, Right, she did a Poppy and a Mama.

JJ:

I'm not your mama. Yeah, yeah.

Matty:

Wasn't that her. I'm not your mama. I'm not your mama. Yeah, I'm not your mama.

JJ:

Yeah, but I but I mean maybe a year or two from now, when we are like in our stardom and you know Slip it In's are doing our tour and they want to call me Poppy. I'll accept it, oh.

Matty:

Dennis, you're accepting it. Money changes everything.

JJ:

All right, all right.

Matty:

Well, this was healthy I'm glad we had that conversation.

JJ:

I didn't even know that that was going to be your first.

Megan:

Well, on the heels of that, matty, I have a question for you. Not too many episodes ago, you talked about as a pull it out that, um, you should be nervous if your partner takes you on a hike and you don't normally hike so did you pick that pull it out because of someone recently trying to push someone off a cliff?

Matty:

There's always someone.

JJ:

Did you get the hiking vibe?

Matty:

There's always someone recently trying to push someone off the cliff. So I think I know there is something making headlines.

Megan:

Yeah.

Matty:

That is not why I picked it. I picked it just because I watch a lot of Dateline 24, no 48 Hours, 24 Hour Mystery.

JJ:

Do you go to sleep with Dateline?

Matty:

I do. It's like a sleep story for me, but no, not because of that, but that's an interesting story.

Megan:

Yeah, gerhard Koenig, who, in Maui, he's Maui, he's a Hawaiian doctor living on Maui 46 was just charged with second degree attempted murder. 46 was just charged with second degree attempted murder after he allegedly tried to kill his wife Ariel during a hike in back in March of this year. So he still hasn't even had his trial yet. So they went hiking and he kept telling her when they got to this, let me guess, take a photo. Is it a photo? Here we go.

Megan:

And then she's right on the cliff, but then he kept saying no, no, further back, further back. She's like no, absolutely not. Well then he jumped her and like pushed her to the ground and was like smashing her head on the ground, oh my God and taking a rock and hitting her on the head, and then he pulled out two syringes because he's a doctor, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So who knows what's in those syringes?

Matty:

So who knows what's in those syringes, I heard something about that. Okay, Can I? Oh well, I don't want to spoil it.

Megan:

Well then she, like hikers, came about and she said he's trying to kill me, help me. And they intervened and called the police and he was arrested, Not to go like extra deep on this.

Matty:

But when you said the syringes, I remember the story a little bit because he actually got whatever was in those syringes and there is. I don't know remember what it was, but he got that delivered to his dentist office and he had previously, a week before, told the people that get the mail, do not open the mail if a box. And somebody didn't get the message and she opened it and he's like, oh, that's for our patients and it was like a dentist would have no need for that.

Matty:

Yeah, but I think that's a different story. I don't think this guy's a dentist. Yeah, oh yeah, this guy's not a dentist.

Megan:

It's all over the news and when he was hitting her with the rocks he said get back over there. I'm so fucking sick of you and he hit her 10 times. Can you even?

Matty:

imagine that moment. Like you are, this is your husband and now, all of a sudden, you realize you think someone wants to get a sweet little photo of you and the next thing you know you're fighting for your life and this person wants to kill you. I just it. It baffles me two things. It baffles me that nobody and I'm gonna say women there are some cases out there about men too, but like I'm going to say women.

Matty:

It baffles me that the that women are not watching Dateline or anything or the new like that. There is not a red flag that goes up in their head when their significant other asked them to go for a hike, like. And then if they start asking photos, like double red flag if you didn't have it the first time, and then if you couple that with it seems like nine times out of 10, their first wife died as well.

Megan:

Well, that is true 100%, I agree. It's like, and they don't there's always like a first dead wife that died of and I'm using air quotes, natural causes, and it's like, yeah, I'll go on a hike with you First dead wife that died of and I'm using air quotes, natural causes and it's like yeah, yeah, I'll go, I'll go on a hike with you First dead wife, yeah.

Megan:

Let's do it, go ahead. I was going to say this. Ariel Koenig, I think, did watch Dateline cause she knew enough not to get close to the cliff, which incensed the doctor.

Matty:

Oh, is that what happened? So she wouldn't do it, so she, her radar was well and she's alive, Good for her.

Megan:

She's alive. She hit this Gerhard Koenig. He lost his medical privileges. He's been charged with second degree murder and we'll see what happens. So stay tuned.

JJ:

It kind of reminded me of like I don't know if any there's any shrinking fans of the show, shrinking of apple tv. Second season just ended, uh, and there was like a a moment, a scene of like one, this girl that was with an abusive um person and a boyfriend, I think it was, and she applied like the boop it was like a boop strategy and she took him to a hike and immediately he's like there is no way I'm going on a hike because I know that that is going to be an alert.

Megan:

What's the boop strategy?

JJ:

I don't know what boop is if something happens that it just drives you not like nuts, that you're like oh well, because sometimes she said well, in the show she said on the therapist she's like sometimes I just want to just like flip his coffee, you know, cup from, you know from the mug, because he's just right. He was very abusive and the therapist said why don't you do it?

Matty:

is that a boop?

JJ:

she's like yeah, and then when you finish you say boop Like boop, I just knocked your coffee over.

Matty:

Oh my God, so she wasn't a hack, thinking about doing a boop on the clip. Oh okay, yeah, I have one quick and we can move on. I have one quick other mention of Harold Henthorne. This was Colorado 2012. This supports everything I was talking about.

JJ:

We got some facts time.

Matty:

Yeah, yeah. This is what I perceive to be as the most notorious one. It got the most amount of attention. It is the mountain of lies on ABC 2020, if you want to look it up. But he also was an ophthalmologist, so I don't know these doctors.

Megan:

I could be in trouble Do not do it.

Matty:

So anyway, he, for the 12th wedding anniversary, decided to go on a hike Rocky Mountains National Park Again, Tony was his wife's name Asked her to take a photo. Supposedly she slipped and he ended up getting caught because between the time he pushed her she died. The time he pushed her he decided he would build a fire before he even reported it and which delayed the. He was doing it to delay the rescue. And then, uh yep, once again, his first wife died of suspicious incident in 1995, and he collected $5 million in life insurance from his first wife.

Matty:

So like listen people, just do not go on these hikes.

JJ:

And also stop it.

Megan:

Yeah, I do think that's a bigger story to discuss later about, like these life insurance.

JJ:

I was just going to say that.

Megan:

Yeah. Like that, like those, are a little bits of red flags and for people out in the dating world, especially you two, maybe a little background check. Well, let me ask you this Would either of you eat.

Matty:

Well, I let's pretend, megan, you're not in a partnership. Would either of you, in this day and age, date somebody?

Megan:

Or maybe that's another episode too. He's a doctor.

Matty:

Date somebody whose previous partner or spouse died of.

JJ:

Natural causes.

Matty:

Or questionable incidences, and just like you're all in, you're fine.

JJ:

I'll do a background check, like Megan said.

Megan:

I'd have a lot of questions Me too. I just can't do it.

JJ:

I think that that is a full on topic. Yeah, and I'm going to chime in into my it is a pullout that I have to say. It came from you, Matty.

Matty:

Oh, I'm on the hot seat again, but it kind of.

JJ:

I'm kind of on the verge of a slip at the end from a pull out.

Matty:

Oh, okay, so hear me out, hear me out so.

JJ:

Maddie brought in the little ducks that the Jeeps put in on their dashboard.

Megan:

Oh yeah.

JJ:

Which we find very ridiculous. We've seen them out and about. Actually, on the way back from our cabin trip, we saw not just regular size ducks on the dashboard, but bigger size.

Matty:

A big duck.

JJ:

Wow.

Matty:

It was a big duck. It was a big duck.

JJ:

Yeah, so it got me thinking and I don't know. I think that Maddie sent some of the pictures. Maddie sent some of the pictures. Ever since Maddie mentioned it, I've seen these ducks left and right at the parking lot, at the gym, everywhere I go, and I'm like what is going on about this? So I wanted to do a little bit of research about this and they actually started in COVID-20.

Matty:

Really. I know I have since done some research as well, and I'm with you.

JJ:

Maddie, you know that one of my favorite words is kindness. It's considered an act of kindness between the Jeep community and I don't know, I don't want it, I don't. If you were to have a Jeep, you would not want to have fun. I don't know, I don't want it. Oh, I don't, you know I used to. If you were to have a Jeep, you would not want to have a Jeep. You used to have one.

Matty:

Well, yeah, but Jiffy Lube caught it on fire.

JJ:

So I don't have that. That was the name of it.

Megan:

I thought that was Uncle Andy's oh.

Matty:

Uncle Ed's.

JJ:

Oh, Uncle.

Matty:

Ed's on fire.

JJ:

I love making the deer fact-checking. She knows my stories Poor Jiffy, I know.

Matty:

I'm sorry, jiffy. I mean any press is good press, Jiffy, just keep that in mind. And I had to constantly do my hands on the steering wheel and when a Jeep would come by I'd have to do two fingers.

Megan:

Yeah, that whole, I remember you doing that. I don't know if I could do the two fingers and the duck. Honestly, if I was cheap, I don't know. I feel like they're losing buyers and we know.

JJ:

Stellantis is in trouble, I don't know. I think that people are really into it. I would not buy a Jeep, I think.

Megan:

Jeeps are attractive. I don't think you're their market. I actually am their market. Why am I not? Well, because you hate them. I'm an adventure girl, I drove a Jeep.

JJ:

She wouldn't go on a hike though.

Megan:

I'm going to have to go to Rivian or Scout. Do you know this?

Matty:

trend is called duck duck Jeep. Yes, did we say that before?

JJ:

No, I don't think we did.

Matty:

Or Jeep ducking, and you know it's one letter off of like yeah, which it's one letter off of like.

Megan:

Yeah, which means I kind of think, like is it really meant to be a kind gesture?

Matty:

But I thought that would get you and do you know where it started? It started in Canada, actually.

Megan:

Your dad wouldn't know. He cannot get into Canada.

JJ:

You know that sometimes it is encouraged to leave a message, but they are telling them if you are leaving a message it has to be PG or G. So you cannot go and leave a message and like this is my number, call me tonight a lot of the tags let's duck it. Yeah, a lot of the tags says you've been ducked yes, yeah, yeah, but if you know you want to do a more of a, here's the x-rated, I don't know I am staying up at night contemplating it because I also my spectrum.

Matty:

Like you know, everything's on a spectrum. I'm probably I was like I can't stand this at a nine Now I'm like at a six.

Megan:

Oh, I've only increased it, and now that you reminded me of that wave which I remember I'd have to do when we were riding around together in that Jeep.

Matty:

No you didn't have to do anything girl.

Megan:

Well, but if I bought a Jeep I'd have to be. It's not everybody Not everybody.

JJ:

No, no, no. I don't think it's like sometimes like a specialty. You wouldn't do it, you refuse, I would refuse.

Megan:

And let me tell you, a week after we had our episode where you brought up this ducking business, I was listening to Jeff Lewis live and Beverly D'Angelo was on and she brought up how she hates the ducks.

Matty:

Oh, she hates it.

Megan:

She hates the ducks with the jeeps.

Matty:

She should listen to this, Beverly we've got your back.

JJ:

Well, no, Megan's got your back, Beverly.

Matty:

I'm here to persuade you. I think JJ too, because he's the one that brought it.

Megan:

Beverly D'Angelo is a public owner. Another thing that I found out is now.

JJ:

They're expanded into different duck collections.

Megan:

Taylor Swift has a collection of ducks.

JJ:

The Grinch. Star Wars have a collection. What do you mean? The Simpsons? They look like Star Wars, but they are ducks with a little Star Wars costume on it.

Matty:

Don't you understand? Do you put?

Megan:

these out, or you're just saying the duck manufacturers are taking the rubber duckies, I mean they're seeing a trend. This is a dream for them.

JJ:

The Friends TV show I'm going to call.

Megan:

Stellantis may no longer be around because people are not going to buy Jeeps.

Matty:

Well, hold on for the slip it in pod, duck, it's coming your way.

Megan:

Not if I have anything to do with it.

JJ:

So Maddie, I was not expecting I was. I felt myself going into like kind of a slip it in more than a pull out, so I was not and I was not going to expect your support on it.

Matty:

Well, I know, like I did a little, like I think it proves like you have an initial, you make, you make an initial judgment. We all do that, uh, on a lot of things. And then over time maybe you just educate yourself a little bit and, like I am, I'm okay I appreciate the educational education. But the new fact, because we're an edu pod, you didn't like yeah, kept me even stauncher oh really, so you're not getting a jeep hey, anti-ducker, why don't? You bring forth a new well.

Megan:

I'm going to talk more fuck the ducks, it's something else, but this is something that JJ fucked us oh my god, what did I do you? Did try before you buy too many times.

JJ:

I missed that so much a dirty bunny costume that's. It was not dirty, it was not dirty.

Megan:

It was worn for 24 hours, you're blaming him for the shift in marketing, if you remember jj had a pull it out where he was so devastated that amazon discontinued the try before you buy. Yeah, and I was Amazon Prime. So I was doing some shopping and I was like buying multiple colors, multiple sizes of some outfits and I'm like, god damn it, if JJ had not just gotten this try before you buy discontinued, I wouldn't have to pay for all this now. Meanwhile, all of it's arrived.

Megan:

It's all going back you can still return it well, no, I know, it's just a delay in my bank account.

Matty:

I don't yeah, I really don't see it as I mean I know like we're not balancing checkbooks people it's 20, there are people that are doing stuff. I mean you're not putting in, you're not logging a credit and a debit in your checkbook?

Megan:

No, I look at my accounts every day, sometimes twice a day, so I see everything coming and going, but it's like in and out credit Deb. It's fine, but it's just.

Matty:

I cursed.

Megan:

JJ while I was buying.

Matty:

And now.

Megan:

I'll curse him when I'm standing in that line at Whole Foods.

Matty:

Do you want to react to this?

JJ:

I mean, I don't curse at myself for it, but I I don't blame you.

Matty:

I don't personally blame you for the switch.

JJ:

It was my pullout because I enjoyed it so much. And I think Megan, no, just let me. No, I think.

Matty:

He would use it anytime a costume would come into play. I know he would do it for costuming.

Megan:

Correct. It was overused and.

JJ:

I think that I'm not the only one. I think that there was a lot of people that did it that way.

Megan:

Clearly you were. That's why it's gone. No.

Matty:

I think Halloween and themed parties were the crux.

JJ:

And I love a theme. And I'm sure, stuff came back just a mess. No, like ragged bunny. You know I keep things. No, no, I wouldn't make sure. I will keep the tag, I will make sure that you're telling me your bunny wasn't dirty it was not dirty at all.

Matty:

My bunny was not out until 2 am in that bunny and I kept it clean all right listen.

JJ:

If it wasn't clean and a perfect condition, they would have charged me, they would have charged me.

Megan:

I don't think any of the Amazon workers. I don't think they were looking that close.

JJ:

It was a white snow bunny suit.

Matty:

White is the key word and you kept it pristine.

JJ:

I have to believe it was off-white.

Matty:

We were on a dive bar tour. Yeah, I know, this wasn't fine dining.

Megan:

Those bunny fur tips were all tinged with a little black I know, it.

Matty:

I enjoyed it at Wild West that bunny got delivered white. It went back light, brown, maybe a little gray it was maybe off-white, but it was.

JJ:

Can I give you guys a little?

Matty:

off-white, it's fair. Can I give you a little pro tip on an Amazon return?

JJ:

I love a pro tip.

Megan:

I love a pro tip.

JJ:

Here's me. There's that voice again, Matt. I know it's so seductive.

Matty:

I'm not saying do this all the time, but if you amazon has come, there's a formula in which it will cost the company more to actually receive the item back and put it back into it well, I feel like a lot of times it's going into the landfill, unfortunately, yeah or to put it back into any other type of resale program. So if you get an item and you go, I'm gonna return it. You have it's like a lottery, you have it's like spinning the wheel and every about 15 times I do it, it'll say we've refunded. You go ahead and keep the item yeah, oh, it's happened to me.

Megan:

Oh, it's such a dream I've had it oh, I usually want to get the rid the item. I don't want it. What?

Matty:

I'm saying is try it with an item, because if you don't return it, this is the hack girl. If you don't like?

JJ:

let's say I get we around it.

Matty:

Well, I'm just saying it's kind of like you get a little high, like when you were a kid and shoplifted. So let's say, I get this body lotion, I love it, I want to keep it. Let me just try the wheel, spin it, I'll hit return and if it says, go to your nearest UPS and return it. If you don't within 15 days, you'll be charged again. So I'm like I don't, I don't mess around with it, I just keep it. But if they were to say, keep it, refund it, I'm like I just won the Amazon lottery. This is not good for the planet. I apologize, but I just want to throw it out there, like, just for like a you know, like.

JJ:

I feel that Amazon will bring it back at some point.

Matty:

Okay, all right, I'm going to go next. All right, let me look at my notes. People Look at my notes people. I've got one up in here about me and this is. I'm going to come for you on this. No, this is one of your slip it ins. Ok, and so yeah, and I've just got some topics to talk about, so Rose.

JJ:

Yeah, yeah, all day.

Matty:

She loves it in the summer, right, and I brought it back up because, again, it's good to educate yourself. I have not traditionally been a fan of Rose and I'm not here to say that I am today but I do. I did a little research on it and I think there's some interesting stuff about Rose and I also had a friend that, encouraged like, asked me what I drink and I drink predominantly when it comes to wine, red wine and she had said well, have you had like in the summer red wine, you know, just doesn't always sound appealing, right, she's like what about a pinot noir chilled? And I guess I look, it's gaining, it's getting very popular I've done it.

Matty:

I'm sure you have I have. I had some today.

JJ:

Oh, you did tonight yeah and I was wondering what was that?

Matty:

that was it because I was doing it in advance of this to see if I like it. I did like it and I learned you don't want to put ice in it, you just want to chill it in the fridge like 20 to 30 minutes. And that's like where, because if you put ice in it, you'll start to lose some of the flavor and things of that nature. But I want to ask you, um, do you guys know that what makes a rosé a rosé?

Megan:

yes, from a grapes, yeah, it's something with how, when they're stomping the grapes, they leave more of the skin in, or something that tints it well, but teachers, well, I'm telling you, I've learned that at like my wine tastings.

Matty:

Okay, well, all right, it's actually yeah, education pod. It's actually because the skins only stay in contact with the juice for just a few hours, max two days and that's what creates the problem.

JJ:

Well, there was some skin component.

Matty:

Well, she was stomping on the grape.

Megan:

Well but she was almost there. It's a skin reference. She was all it's also the oldest wine.

Matty:

Did you know that?

Megan:

I did not know that. That's interesting, it is the oldest wine. Yeah, you know that I did not know that it is the oldest wine. Yeah huh, I would have expected red that's interesting. Yeah, I like it what the more you know, it's, it's mad, maddie.

JJ:

Um, so I'm, I'm, I'm have questions. So the same thing that you were experiencing with the pinot noir, is it now? Is it the same thing as like now that I've been like very into like the shield red wines, kind of a similar take on it for me? Yeah, is that my experience?

Matty:

Well, I'm just trying to like branch out a little bit and like be open. And also in the summer I will agree that, like my cat, a cab is my go-to. But like in the summer, like if you're sitting outside, if you're, you know, out on a patio, like it doesn't sound or, look, I don't think great to be like. Oh, look at, I'm just having a cab up in here, like it's february. So I wanted to explore. But rose has never been my thing and I might try it a little bit more. So I thought, well, I'll take a red and chill it, and Pinot Noir was a recommendation, so I kind of I like it.

JJ:

Yeah.

Matty:

Do you know that rosé also like what about this? There are rosé face masks, scrubs, lip balms, facials and also soak tubs. You can do a and it's supposed to be good for you a full, full fill, a full tub up with rosé and soak in it I'd love it would you drink with a little strong?

Megan:

that sounds gross. Yeah, I don't think I'd drink it.

JJ:

It's like this equivalent of like a milk bath. I wouldn't yeah, yeah, no I mean, I like that, the idea of like the rosé right next to it, but no I have one more thing before we want to move on that I just want to yeah, I have something prepared.

Matty:

Oh, you do for the rosé.

JJ:

No.

Matty:

Do you know that? I know, speak, you're Spanish. Do you know the 2015 massive Spanish rosé fraud?

JJ:

No, tell me about it. That swept I was in the US at that time Hit all the headlines.

Megan:

I I was in the US at that time Hit all the headlines. I was not part of it. So they took 10 million bottles of Spanish rosé and slapped a French rosé label on it and upped the price like twofolds. Because French rosé just has a Right yeah.

Matty:

I actually think French rosé gives me more of a headache than like an american rosé. Really, that's interesting. Yeah, well, when the french for italian french.

Megan:

Give me more headaches, italians do not oh well I have a I have a spanish, spanish, I had a spanish. Give me a headache through the years I would get a spaniard that gets me head listen.

JJ:

So this, so this, let me, I just gotta get this out.

Matty:

No, I gotta get this out, because this is my favorite part of the story the spanish or the french. When they found out what went on, the French wine growers retaliated against Spain by blocking Spanish routes and dumping trucks of imported Rose on the highways right near the border.

JJ:

Wow.

Megan:

Wow.

Matty:

This was 2015.

JJ:

Yeah, wow Like.

Matty:

I'm kind of surprised those shenanigans were going on in 2015.

JJ:

That was rose all day on the highway something that I drink some rosé to on a regular basis, or any kind of drink, is me watching the house vibes with a little rosé, and that's a transition gotta love a coffee that takes me oh, megan.

JJ:

So one of Megan's slip it ins All kinds of transition Yep, gotta love a coffee that takes me, oh, megan. So one of Megan's slip-it-ins a few episodes ago was the Real Housewives of Miami, and I have to say that Miami, after eight years of hiatus, it came back with a swing. Andy Cohen and John Hill cannot stop talking about the real households of Miami. So, megan, you bring in this end as a slip it in. I am to an end. I know that Maddie is not a big fan of Miami, but I think that you should give it a try because the drama is crazy.

Megan:

It's so good this season and, honestly, I always was a big Miami fan so I was kind of sad when it went away. I loved Marisol's mother, elsa.

Matty:

That's all I have written down. Is RIP Elsa. She was amazing I did watch it, then I am not watching it now.

Megan:

Well, marisol has, I, I feel like emulated her mother without even trying 100, 100 more like her mother than you ever would have known.

Matty:

I am I have to.

Megan:

Andy's starting to look like her too no, no, no, she's a little bit more concerned about that marisol talked about that on a watch what happens live and she was nervous for her mother to come on the show because her mother had bad plastic surgery so she's like her face had gotten messed up from this plastic surgery by bad plastic surgeons. So marisol was afraid people would make fun of her. But people just loved her because we embraced.

JJ:

She was amazing and her like, like I could never get enough. She had like no film.

Megan:

That's what I'm saying, like but in the best way, and she was usually right on yeah, yeah, 100.

JJ:

That's why I'm saying, like andy, we, we need to make marisol a full-time housewife she's not a friend, no, she's just a friend, but she brings it megan. I feel that she's carrying this show on her shoulders like nobody's business and I think that this new Real Housewives of Miami is like what Bravo needs to do with New York, what they need to do with New Jersey. They really need to bring in the drama like Miami is doing it.

Megan:

It's so good. And, maddie, you're like a tennis aficionado.

Matty:

So I would think you'd be all about it because Martina's on. Martina Navratilova.

Megan:

Yes.

Matty:

Oh, she's on. Well, she's the partner.

Megan:

That's on there now, but Martina's on almost every episode. Oh, she is, and I love it. Every time she's on, you can tell, you can see how she's like, whatever world champion she is like yeah, she's, like she's won wimbledon, like I'm wearing a little outfit, that's very wimbledon in love of martina.

JJ:

So, yeah, that's that I wanted to revisit this step it in megan because it's bravo is maybe I'll try it, you should.

Megan:

and here's the other thing that I love, and I do wonder, like, how far I can take this, like I don't say it in like a work setting, but I'm wondering, could I?

JJ:

Marisol talks about drinks, she calls them cockies oh, like short for cocktails.

Matty:

So you want to see that in a brief?

Megan:

It's like, yeah, in a brief she's like it's a little time for some cockies.

Matty:

You want to bring that to work. Well, I don't think you can say it's cock time at work. I don't think you can, probably not I guess I can.

Megan:

I mean give it a try, but I feel like if someone, if you know they watch Real Housewives. Is it like a fine?

Matty:

line that. I, you can throw a little cocky out.

JJ:

I think that she could probably get away with because she's a female.

Megan:

She's like, oh, everybody wants a cocky. I don't think so, JJ.

Matty:

It's like she's jonesing for a cocky.

Megan:

Like function after work with a bar? Try it, I'm trying.

Matty:

Let's saddle up to the bar for some cocky, try it and bring it back.

JJ:

And I want to know if it's ginge from a slip it into a pull it out. She'll be like well, I no longer have a job.

Matty:

Talking about Real Housewives of Miami. I want to call you Poppy right now. No, you can't. No, I don't want to do that. It fits, because they do talk about poppies on Real Housewives of Miami Really.

JJ:

Do they do poppy cocky? Some of them are like. Hispanic or Cuban or like whatever, alicia and Marisol, and the new. Elizabeth, which I love.

Matty:

See yeah.

Megan:

All right Well.

Matty:

Are we?

JJ:

done with all this Revisits. Slip it in simple out.

Matty:

I wonder if we're going to get some feedback Like this is an observation on my end. I wonder, like we are passionate about the topics. I think we talked over each other a little bit.

JJ:

Probably, but like, this is how we are, yeah. So this is yeah, you laugh, you cringe, you slip at it.

Matty:

Yeah Well, why don't we do a fresh batch? Or do you have something?

Megan:

more. Yeah, no, I'm ready to move on.

Matty:

Okay, I'm ready to move on.

Megan:

Unfortunately, like I don't have any cockies to talk about, Can I to talk about? Can I do?

JJ:

mine first because yeah, oh, okay, you got it. Well, it is kind of like we're calling it with miami. We kind of mentioned bad bunny. He is my slip it in today he is he is my, slip it in today because bad bunny started his first time ever residence in puerto rico um for his, um, um his concert no me quiero ir de aqui, which is, I don't want to leave from here it's the first time they've done a residence in puerto rico.

JJ:

Bat bunny has lifted up puerto rico in a time that has been very dark for everybody. Puerto rico is obviously part of my heart. I call it my country as well, and the things that he's done. It's amazing. You should see the video of how he transformed this coliseum into like a mountain in puerto rico with a little house with like.

JJ:

He even does the whole um like dark out because people in puerto rico are losing power and things like that he's done in the middle of the concert so that people can experience that a blackout yeah, that's the word a blackout in the middle of the concert, so that people, it is really a a celebration of the puerto rican culture. So I that is really my slip it in. That's nice, and the way that he did it is like only puerto ricans can go to his residence well, well he's going, he can.

JJ:

He's gonna do an extension of his concerts outside of it, but he's starting his tour just in puerto rico for puerto ricans, and I think that that's what a little poppy he will accept the poppy. He will accept the poppy yeah, and since I love a theme, I'm going to the theme of concerts and tours and music. I gotta say you kind of mentioned it as well, maddie. I love j-lo, but she started her tour in spain, which is also part of my heart.

Matty:

It was a flop it was so by your standards would have been all about it.

JJ:

Talk is all over it. Her heating this is the thing. Maddie and I went to her 50th birthday tour and it was amazing. She's a performer, she's not a singer and she's a vocalist I would.

Matty:

Is that the difference like?

JJ:

or she's a singer, she's not. Okay, I got that wrong.

Megan:

No, yeah she's a performer, she dances. That's what I said. She's a performer, she's not a singer.

JJ:

She's trying to be a singer in this tour, oh, no, she wants to sing live and she's doing this flamenco thing. It's not good. J-lo, I love you so much, but not for you. You are my pullout today.

Megan:

Listen and look at what Madonna did. She tried that stuff for a while too.

Matty:

It didn't work Well, no, Madonna went back to her roots.

Megan:

Madonna puts on a show.

Matty:

She's doing something. Now I heard she puts on an amazing show. She does.

Megan:

There's never a bad show if it's Madonna.

JJ:

And J-Lo I Madonna and JLo.

Megan:

I would expect the same, so go away from the singing and just put the show well, I guess let me build off of that with my slip it in what do you got? Well, I have been binging building the band and if you haven't watched it, watch it on Netflix.

JJ:

I love it. Is that the show with Kelly Rowland?

Megan:

yes, it's hosted by AJ McLean, and then Nicole Scherzinger is a mentor. And then the judges are Nicole Kelly Rowland and Liam Payne.

Matty:

She's a mentor and a judge, nicole, yes, so she kind of does double duty Okay.

JJ:

Yeah, and then AJ is just a host.

Megan:

Let me tell you, it's not. It's kind of like a combo of love is blind. The voice and the american idol group challenge oh wow, that's and I love it. It's all rolled into one. It's like those three kind of concepts rolled up to one. It's amazing. You have to watch it and it's so nice to see Liam Payne. I wasn't the biggest One Direction fan, I didn't know much about Liam Payne, but I read all the articles about his whole death and drug use and everything that went on.

Matty:

Oh, he was on the show.

Megan:

Yes, as a judge, so I was kind of expecting him to be messy.

Matty:

Let me tell you he is super professional.

Megan:

He gives great advice. Super funny with that like english wit like so good did he finish the season before his past? Yes, and there was debates of whether they were ever going to air these the show, and I'm so glad they did.

Matty:

It's amazing and it's actually a great tribute to him, kind of well, and they kind of like they started.

Megan:

Aj mclean came out, or mclean, whatever his name is of like giving a little tribute when the show started but, I will say if you haven't watched it, watch it. Uh, all the episodes will be uh released by 723 this is in netflix on netflix. Yeah, yep, so that I'll watch.

JJ:

I got miami got it.

Megan:

Yeah, you're gonna love it you're building on the weekend yeah, it's a good show, yeah, um, so my pull it out is I don't know if you guys are aware, but taco bell's currently testing a new menu item in the detroit area, specifically called the steak and cheese taco dia.

JJ:

So immediately when I read taco dila taco oh, it's dila taco with a quesadilla it's sort of that a mashup.

Matty:

They'll do like a mashup. They take these one thing and make it into six different new item Taco Bell. I'm surprised it's on your pull it out.

Megan:

well, yeah, it features a grilled corn and flour tortilla filled with marinated steak, a three cheese blend and a new red chili sauce, and I'm not a fan.

JJ:

Oh, you tried it already.

Megan:

The doctor wasn't either.

JJ:

What did you like about it?

Megan:

Well, sometimes, when there's new Taco Bell items, I'm like I think it's time to have a little Taco Bell dinner.

Matty:

Let's not tag Taco Bell in our posts, Well no.

Megan:

Because we are on all the socials.

JJ:

I love a lot of their other items, so there's a lot of taco bell love from me, okay, but especially after the bar yes, the steak and cheese taco dealer.

Megan:

I hope it doesn't get rolled out nationwide. I wasn't a fan okay all right?

Matty:

well, if I'm gonna try to have a connective tissue to, anything, I guess, when you leave the bar at 2 am and you want to go to Taco Bell and you order your Uber. That's my theme.

JJ:

So here's what I love.

Matty:

Here's my slip it in what's going on with Uber? Tipsy Ubering is my favorite. Jj and Megan, you both can attest I have a lot of social anxiety, so if I get into an uber completely sober, I don't want to have any conversation, but if I've had some drinks I want to know all the deets. Yeah, how many kids do you have?

JJ:

oh god no, that's why if I am with maddie, I put I order my uber and quiet mode but I break the rule.

Matty:

I break the rule, he orders it that way but as soon as I open up and start talking, they're like well, that's my cue, that I can speak to this passenger, and I have learned a lot about I can't believe that you're slipping in because, I love it really I love it on my conditions and terms because I want to just learn all I can about my uber driver when it's 2 30 in the morning well, if I'm tipsy, maybe I jump in on that, but otherwise I like an uber situation where I get in.

Megan:

I feel like I give them an obligatory, like one or two questions or comments and then I kind of want to just chill out in that top.

Matty:

All right, that sounds like 10 PM to me.

Megan:

This is 2 AM, that's my afternoon. Uber.

JJ:

Usually about 2.30, I would say.

Matty:

My pull it out also on Uber or share rides in general is can we just temper the air freshener? They love an air freshener, Just a little they do.

JJ:

They do. Can we temper it? Can we temper?

Megan:

it a little love, an ocean breeze? No, but you're doing um? Uber ride.

JJ:

I think the issue is yeah, because someone threw up the night before and they're trying to hide the smell, so and then you have the throwing up and the vomit and the freshener. It's a lot lot.

Matty:

I just am like this is overpowering, like do they want to smell it? And like I'm in the backseat, their nose is like 12 inches from it.

Megan:

Matty:

Okay, I'm going to leave it there.

Megan:

Well, yeah we'll leave it there for the time being, but in the meantime, we want to hear from you, so send your questions and comments to slipitinpodcast at gmailcom.
