I am just, all in all, a family gal. I am 100% Italian. I feel like I have a little bit of Cherokee Indian in me. [00:03:44] Speaker B: Really? [00:03:44] Speaker A: Yeah. My mom is like, can you say that? [00:03:46] Speaker B: Cherokee Indian. We're canceled. [00:03:49] Speaker A: No, I definitely have a little bit of. [00:03:50] Speaker B: What'd you do? [00:03:52] Speaker A: I know. We're getting canceled by like half the country. No, my grandma's Cherokee Indian, which makes my mom, which makes me. [00:03:57] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. [00:03:58] Speaker A: So I say I'm like a little bit Cherokee Indian. Can't you tell by the hair? [00:04:01] Speaker B: Did you write that on, like your college application to get in? [00:04:04] Speaker A: I think I forgot. Okay. Oh, Italian. And I. And you know what? My life is so white picket fence. [00:04:10] Speaker B: Tell us about it. [00:04:11] Speaker A: But I have so much anxiety. [00:04:12] Speaker B: No, legit, no. [00:04:13] Speaker A: I do. [00:04:14] Speaker B: You do? [00:04:14] Speaker A: I definitely do, but it's fine because you know what? [00:04:17] Speaker B: Your anxiety is so weird though. It is like, I have anxiety, but my anxiety is so, so different than yours. [00:04:23] Speaker A: It is. We're very different. [00:04:25] Speaker B: I think everyone's gonna kill me and. [00:04:27] Speaker A: Yeah, you think you're kidnapped when you get out of the car. [00:04:29] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:04:29] Speaker A: Like, I don't feel that way. I would walk, like in the middle of like a highway by myself with my child. [00:04:33] Speaker B: Oh, no. Like, I think it. But I think it stems from, like, when I was a kid, my mom made me have like a safe word with her where it's like, if I got to a friend's House. Code word. Code word. Like, is it really you, or did someone have your phone and you're kidnapped? I'm like, mom, it's me. And I said you were the code word. [00:04:48] Speaker A: That's why. [00:04:48] Speaker B: Yeah, I mean, my mom has a lot of anxiety, but, like. [00:04:51] Speaker A: But you have anxiety. You just don't realize that you don't let it affect you. [00:04:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:04:55] Speaker A: Like, I feel like I have this. Like, we'll get into it. We'll talk about. [00:04:58] Speaker B: We're going to talk a lot about. [00:04:59] Speaker A: Yeah, but, like, I feel like that's just, like, who I am. I'm Italian. I'm loud. I'm, like, very forward. I say what I want. I say what I feel. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. You can literally see it as I speak a little. I'm very loyal. [00:05:12] Speaker B: Loyal to a fault. [00:05:13] Speaker A: Very loyal. I'm very loyal. Like, I almost am too loyal. [00:05:18] Speaker B: Yeah, you're like a. You're like a chocolate lab. [00:05:22] Speaker A: That's the right thing. [00:05:24] Speaker B: I told you. [00:05:25] Speaker A: I'm not great with saying that is not right. But we'll get chocolate labs. No, I think it's golden retrievers. [00:05:30] Speaker B: Oh, golden retrievers. Yeah. But you're not a golden because you are not a blonde. [00:05:33] Speaker A: I am not. [00:05:34] Speaker B: You are nothing against blondes or redheads. [00:05:37] Speaker A: I love redheads. [00:05:38] Speaker B: Yeah, but I don't have red hair. [00:05:39] Speaker A: You don't? [00:05:40] Speaker B: Okay. She said this lady makes me look like I have red hair. And that, I don't know why is not a compliment to me. [00:05:45] Speaker A: Yeah, you got really upset. [00:05:47] Speaker B: Yeah, well, I'm a brunette. [00:05:48] Speaker A: Oh, you are. [00:05:49] Speaker B: With brown eyes. And your son also has brown eyes. [00:05:52] Speaker A: Do we really have to go there? Sorry. [00:05:55] Speaker B: Your daughter will get the eyes, I promise. [00:05:56] Speaker A: No, I hope not anytime soon. [00:05:58] Speaker B: Okay. [00:05:59] Speaker A: Anywho. [00:06:00] Speaker B: Anywho. [00:06:01] Speaker A: But I feel like that's my life. And you'll get to know me real quick. You know me. I'm that girl that. You know me. [00:06:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:08] Speaker A: The second you meet me. [00:06:09] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:06:09] Speaker A: And if you don't vibe, we're not gonna be friends. Like, that's just it. And I. I talk a lot, and not in, like, annoying, but I'm not that, like, yapper. It's like, everyone, tell her to shut up. I'm a good listener. [00:06:18] Speaker B: You are a good listener. [00:06:19] Speaker A: I. I just say what I feel, and that's it. And if you don't want to be a part of my life, then don't. Yeah. [00:06:24] Speaker B: I also say, like, you. You look intimidating. Like, you really. [00:06:28] Speaker A: Oh, I know. I've gotten that my whole life Truly look. [00:06:30] Speaker B: But I think it's just because like think you're gorgeous and that's really nice. I think people that look amazing. It is the eyebrows. [00:06:37] Speaker A: I mean my whole life like people would come up to me, I've never touched my eyebrows. [00:06:41] Speaker B: Don't touch my eyebrows. I don't know. [00:06:42] Speaker A: I tried to pencil in her eyebrows and she literally wouldn't let me. I had to like at least brush off the foundation. Anyway, my whole life people have come up to me and like I always wanted to say hi to you but. [00:06:51] Speaker B: Like, but I was scared. [00:06:52] Speaker A: Yeah, like it is at a fault though. [00:06:54] Speaker B: It's like yeah, it's like why not come talk to me? I'm fine, I'm funny here. [00:06:57] Speaker A: And then when they get to know me they know I'm like a sweetheart. [00:06:59] Speaker B: Do I look intimidating? [00:07:01] Speaker A: No. [00:07:02] Speaker B: So you're saying I'm ugly? [00:07:03] Speaker A: No, you're just like very easily approachable. [00:07:07] Speaker B: Oh yeah, I'm very approachable. [00:07:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:10] Speaker B: Like spread legs approachable or like we'll talk about that. [00:07:14] Speaker A: We definitely have to talk about that. All right. Yeah, that's like really about me. I feel like if you want to know more you have to ask me. [00:07:21] Speaker B: Well, you didn't say like if you have a kid or not. [00:07:23] Speaker A: I did. I said I have a 13 month old and a dog. [00:07:25] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:07:26] Speaker A: And he's almost two of the dog and. [00:07:27] Speaker B: Oh you did, you did. [00:07:28] Speaker A: Yeah. And I have a husband. Did I say that? [00:07:30] Speaker B: Yeah. Maybe. [00:07:31] Speaker A: I have a husband who's turning 35. We're going to Vegas. Not for his 35th for a wedding, but we're gonna celebrate. [00:07:35] Speaker B: That'll be really fun. Yeah. You met your husband like later in life. [00:07:38] Speaker A: Yeah, I met my husband five years ago and we already are married with a child and a dog and a home. [00:07:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:07:46] Speaker A: So anything can happen. I mean we both lived our lives and now we're happily married. Right hun? Are you just sitting back and watching? That's cute. [00:07:56] Speaker B: I love him. [00:07:56] Speaker A: He's our producer. He's doing everything behind the scenes because I can't lift a finger. Technically I'd rather pass away. [00:08:03] Speaker B: He's my best friend. But like, honestly he's been replaced. [00:08:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:08] Speaker B: By his wife. [00:08:09] Speaker A: We have to talk about that. [00:08:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:08:10] Speaker A: He seems a little upset. [00:08:11] Speaker B: I think he might be butthurt and I honestly haven't talked to him about it. He is, I used to call him. [00:08:17] Speaker A: I know he says that and he, he's like second. [00:08:20] Speaker B: I know I'd call him. He says that he was like my number one, like not my husband. [00:08:24] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:24] Speaker B: Division was. [00:08:25] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:26] Speaker B: On my list. [00:08:27] Speaker A: Yeah. He says that though, so he definitely misses you. But I feel like he appreciates that we're really close. [00:08:32] Speaker B: Oh, well, there was no other way. Because if we weren't, then game over. No, you wouldn't be married. Or no, you check the boxes. For me, personally, I love. [00:08:41] Speaker A: That means more to me than my husband loving me. I gotta be honest. [00:08:44] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, I. I could not see a world where Michael Divisio married someone. [00:08:50] Speaker A: That's my husband's name. [00:08:51] Speaker B: Yeah. Love. Him and me and her didn't get along. [00:08:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:55] Speaker B: And I. We said it like our whole lives. [00:08:57] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:57] Speaker B: Like, who are you gonna marry?

[00:14:03] Speaker A: I know. You know what I mean? [00:14:05] Speaker B: So she just wants to point out that I'm Jewish, which is great. [00:14:08] Speaker A: So what's her nationality? [00:14:10] Speaker B: I just said I'm a mutt. I'm like, Polish. [00:14:13] Speaker A: Well, I wanted to hear your nationality. [00:14:15] Speaker B: I mean, I don't know. [00:14:16] Speaker A: Your religion is Jewish. I'm. [00:14:18] Speaker B: Are you religious? Did you eat meat last Friday? [00:14:20] Speaker A: I'm not talking about that. [00:14:21] Speaker B: Did you really meet last Friday? [00:14:23] Speaker A: Yeah, I did. [00:14:23] Speaker B: She did. She had a cheese accident and a chicken bar pizza. [00:14:27] Speaker A: She's telling everybody. I'm upset. [00:14:29] Speaker B: Sorry. Sorry, Mom, I'm telling you. A priest, too. [00:14:32] Speaker A: That's my. I gotta think of the word. [00:14:34] Speaker B: That's great. That's your whole identity. You're a Italian. Good for you. I'm a meatball and a matzo ball. You live by it. [00:14:39] Speaker A: All right. Anyhow. [00:14:40] Speaker B: Anyhow. [00:14:41] Speaker A: Is that it? You want to say about yourself. Let's move on. [00:14:43] Speaker B: Yeah, let's. I don't want to talk about me anymore. [00:14:44] Speaker A: No. Either. What are we. I don't care. Let's talk about how we met. This is gonna be epic. [00:14:48] Speaker B: I like. I like how we met because I go first. [00:14:50] Speaker A: Because yours is longer. Mine's a quick. [00:14:52] Speaker B: Yeah, sure. [00:14:53] Speaker A: So basically, my parents own a house down at the shore. He's owned it. My father has owned it since he was, like, 22 years old. We've been down there. I grew up down there. That's my. That is basically my home without it being my home. And we spent every summer there, and we always have a million people at the house. It's always chaotic, and we're very much family people. Everybody always comes to our house. [00:15:12] Speaker B: It was like the house to be. [00:15:13] Speaker A: Yeah, it was like the house to be at. And we're always inviting the neighbors over. They never really come, but it's fine. And Covid hits, and my dad insists on throwing a party for his friend, a retirement party, and he did. [00:15:24] Speaker B: You have epic parties back in the backyard. We do bartenders, chefs. [00:15:29] Speaker A: Chefs, the whole line. And my husband, he'll tell you that side of the story one day. But basically, he was golfing, and then his best friend owned the shorthouse next door. But backtrack, his parents owned the shore house back in the day, which resorted to the son buying it from them. So the son, who's my husband's best friend, currently owns the house, and he has for probably, like, 10 years. And I always knew him as, like, the guy next door, but, you know, quiet guy. [00:15:53] Speaker B: He's really quiet. [00:15:54] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, I've always seen, like, a couple guys over there, but, like, never piqued my interest. I was, like, always. She was with my own life. [00:15:59] Speaker B: Had way hotter guys in her backyard. [00:16:02] Speaker A: Anywho, Covid hits, and basically, my dad invites other neighbors over, and they actually came. And my husband wasn't my husband at the time. Hopped the fence with the most gorgeous. [00:16:14] Speaker B: Eyes, Sexiest, dreamy eyes. [00:16:16] Speaker A: Little frisky man. This rubber ducky bathing suit on. [00:16:21] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:16:22] Speaker A: Literally made him throw it out. [00:16:23] Speaker B: I know that. I know that being throw it out. I know you changed his whole. [00:16:27] Speaker A: Thank God. Anyway, that's how I met my husband. [00:16:30] Speaker B: Come to my husband's closet next. [00:16:32] Speaker A: He gets so mad at me when I tell him to retire. [00:16:33] Speaker B: Retire that Yankee shirt. [00:16:35] Speaker A: Jesus Christ. So I met my husband. He hopped the fence, and it was happily ever after after that. And then I don't know why? I'm talking about how I met my husband. It's supposed to be how I met you. Oh, my husband. [00:16:49] Speaker B: My husband, he came to me and was like, I met someone. [00:16:53] Speaker A: You could just go from there. [00:16:54] Speaker B: I feel like it's like I met someone. I was like, okay, you meet someone every other weekend. Who's this chick? [00:16:59] Speaker A: And nice. He's looking at me for my reaction. I know. [00:17:01] Speaker B: And he said, this is something. And I said, I got a meter. [00:17:05] Speaker A: If you asked him about my vagina. [00:17:07] Speaker B: Yes. Well. So, yes. Mike and I have a very close relationship. And I did. I said, did you? How? I needed everything. I need all the deets. If I don't know about your vagina, then I don't really know you. And so you know what he said to me? He said, I can't tell you. [00:17:24] Speaker A: And he's never said that. [00:17:25] Speaker B: He's never said that. He's always told me every detail about those crevices. [00:17:28] Speaker A: That's funny, because it's not like you still don't know. Maybe you do. I do as of today. Because she's like, let me see your body. [00:17:35] Speaker B: I said that today. Can I see your body? [00:17:37] Speaker A: And I actually showed you. [00:17:39] Speaker B: Yeah, because why not? [00:17:40] Speaker A: But you didn't say anything, by the way. [00:17:41] Speaker B: I said you were hot. [00:17:43] Speaker A: How do we meet? [00:17:44] Speaker B: So, okay. So I said I had to meet her. [00:17:46] Speaker A: Do we mention the fact that our husbands are cousins? [00:17:48] Speaker B: Oh, no, Our husbands are first cousins. Basically brothers. [00:17:51] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, they're. My husband's mother and my husband's father are brother. And sister. [00:17:56] Speaker B: And sister, yes. So we met down the shore at a Lavalette house. [00:18:01] Speaker A: This was like the week after we met, me and him. [00:18:03] Speaker B: It was in July. I was nine months pregnant. So I wasn't like my fun drunk self. I was fucking August. August. Hot. About 200 pounds of sweat. [00:18:16] Speaker A: You were big with their first. It was your first, too. [00:18:19] Speaker B: I was pretty big. I got big all the time, but I was big. Yeah. And we met and I was like. We were going on a walk to the sunset. Sunset. Oh, that's so romantic of us. And everyone else was ahead of us, and we were just, like, slowly walking. I was slow walking because I was waddling and I was not. [00:18:33] Speaker A: I have no idea why I was slow. [00:18:35] Speaker B: You have no excuse. [00:18:35] Speaker A: I wasn't slow walking. Because you were. I just walk slow. [00:18:37] Speaker B: Yeah. Which I love. Like, that was the first thing I loved about you, is you're a slow walker. So am I. Check. We're good. [00:18:43] Speaker A: Yeah. That's when we first met and we hit it all. [00:18:45] Speaker B: And we talked and it was great. [00:18:47] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:18:47] Speaker B: And the rest is kind of history. [00:18:49] Speaker A: Yeah. And then the second time we met. [00:18:51] Speaker B: Oh, that was at the draft party down the shore in their backyard. [00:18:56] Speaker A: My husband hosts. The neighbor hosts a draft party for the guys, and they do their draft picks and all the shit, and the. [00:19:01] Speaker B: Guy who loses has to do, like, a crazy thing. And their thing that year was dress up and do a dance in front of the whole party. [00:19:08] Speaker A: That's a girl. [00:19:08] Speaker B: Well, you didn't have to do that. Your husband wanted to wear my white juicy jumpsuit, my wig, put fake boobs in, and dress as a girl and sing. Man, I feel like a woman. [00:19:19] Speaker A: Pretty good, too. [00:19:20] Speaker B: He was so good. His ass looked way better in. Yes. Oh, I have no butt. And now it's even. It's inverted. It's horrible. No, it's really bad. [00:19:31] Speaker A: I hate an inverted ass. [00:19:32] Speaker B: I know. I have like. [00:19:33] Speaker A: You need to go to Pilates. [00:19:34] Speaker B: I need more Pilates. [00:19:35] Speaker A: Thank God your husband's a tits guy. [00:19:36] Speaker B: Thank yo. If I was an ass guy, I would die. Divorced. [00:19:40] Speaker A: Not even married. You wouldn't even get there. [00:19:42] Speaker B: No, no, no. Yeah, yeah. [00:19:43] Speaker A: But from. From my perspective that day, my husband, I just met him at the time, Right. It was probably like a week or two later. [00:19:50] Speaker B: No, well, it was like a month later because I was like, three weeks postpartum. [00:19:54] Speaker A: It was a month. [00:19:55] Speaker B: I was pumping. It was the first time I was out after having my first baby. I was literally milking myself in the back room, and I forgot a part, a really crucial part of the pump, the phalange thing. And I was like, a first time pumping. Mom. I didn't know what I was doing. [00:20:11] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:11] Speaker B: And I forgot it. And I called my two best friends, and I was like, you guys, I have to release, but I don't. I literally don't know what I'm doing. Oh, no. They were milking me with their mouth. Yeah. No, like, with their hand. Like, honestly, with the mouth probably would. [00:20:24] Speaker A: Be, like, probably a lot easier. [00:20:27] Speaker B: Easier. We should have thought about that. That's crazy. [00:20:29] Speaker A: I didn't know that. Yeah. [00:20:30] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. So, like, just, like, milking me, and I was like, oh, my God, guys, I don't know what I'm doing. Like, this is great. I need this out. But I couldn't use the pump, and I was sleeping out. So, like, there was no. [00:20:42] Speaker A: How could you forget the pump? [00:20:43] Speaker B: I. I didn't know. How'd you forget the diaper bag the first time you went out? [00:20:48] Speaker A: So, anyway, proceeding along at the Time I get a text from my boyfriend. Whoever I was talking to, they were all at the neighbor's house. [00:20:55] Speaker B: Was even your boyfriend? Were you, like, exclusive? Yeah. Or you were just, like, dating? [00:20:58] Speaker A: I don't think so. I think we were just hooking up, whatever. And he texts me and goes. I go, where are you? He's like, we're next door. Like, we're drinking and stuff. Come by. And then he texted me again. He's like, actually, wait 15 minutes. And I'm. Mind you, I'm next door. Like, a fence away. I'm like, 15 minutes. [00:21:13] Speaker B: Which is so funny because he didn't want her to see his performance, which. [00:21:17] Speaker A: Was in a juicy fit with fake boobs and a wig. [00:21:20] Speaker B: It was too good. I have videos. I'll show you. [00:21:22] Speaker A: And I come next door, and Emily's like, oh, my God, did you see an echo? [00:21:26] Speaker B: She was like, see what? [00:21:27] Speaker A: And then I watched the video. I was like, this is why he said not to come for 15 minutes. Like, he wouldn't ever care about that now. But it's so funny that he cared for me not to see that. [00:21:35] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, well, you care a lot in the beginning, you know, and then you just let it all hang out. [00:21:38] Speaker A: That was the second time we met. [00:21:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:21:40] Speaker A: And then what was the third time? [00:21:42] Speaker B: Oh, you came to my house. We were having, like, a little dinner soiree. [00:21:47] Speaker A: I was in a fake tits phase. I wanted fake tits. [00:21:51] Speaker B: Yeah. And I still do. [00:21:52] Speaker A: Me too. [00:21:53] Speaker B: I'm getting them. [00:21:54] Speaker A: Same. [00:21:55] Speaker B: Okay. You came, but she literally just came from her consultation. [00:21:58] Speaker A: I went to the consultation. [00:21:59] Speaker B: She had the actual. [00:22:00] Speaker A: So I know the doctor, so he gave me the implants. [00:22:03] Speaker B: So she came to my house with the implants, and she was like, are these good? And I was like, what size are those? She's like 550cc. [00:22:10] Speaker A: It was 450. [00:22:11] Speaker B: Oh, sorry. 450cc's and I was like, let's put them in. Like, I'll get. Let me get a bra or a bathing suit so you could, like, make it look legit. So we go in the bathroom, we get them in, and she comes out, and she literally just like, she's 5ft tall, like, 100 pounds, and, like, she looks like a porn star with. She's, like, going to topple. And I love. I was like, yes, this is what you're getting. [00:22:33] Speaker A: I was in the mirror taking pictures, and she was behind me like a stage mom. [00:22:36] Speaker B: You look amazing. I like you so much better with huge tits. [00:22:40] Speaker A: And her husband's a huge fan of tits. And he was like, yeah. Your husband was like, babe, we're not doing that. So now that I think about it, 450cc's is crazy. [00:22:49] Speaker B: I mean, but, like, why are you going to get a boob job if you're not going to go big or go home? Like. [00:22:53] Speaker A: I know, but I can't do that. I'm so little. [00:22:55] Speaker B: Guess I know you can. [00:22:57] Speaker A: You just. You were a porn star. [00:22:58] Speaker B: I mean, in my, like, next life. Next life, maybe. [00:23:01] Speaker A: So that was the third time we met. [00:23:04] Speaker B: And that was. [00:23:05] Speaker A: And then that was literally when we just. [00:23:07] Speaker B: Yeah, it was like. Yeah, yeah. [00:23:08] Speaker A: That was it. After that. [00:23:09] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, she's my person. This is it. [00:23:11] Speaker A: Definitely my person. [00:23:12] Speaker B: And then three years later, Mama say what we're called. [00:23:16] Speaker A: Three years. Five years. [00:23:17] Speaker B: Five years. I was just thinking about my kids. Three, five years. [00:23:21] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:21] Speaker B: I was in your wedding. [00:23:22] Speaker A: She was in my wedding. Wasn't in hers. [00:23:25] Speaker B: Well, I didn't know you. [00:23:26] Speaker A: Not going to hold it against you. [00:23:28] Speaker B: I didn't know her. Okay. If I did know you, you would have been in it. [00:23:32] Speaker A: I would have been your maid of honor. [00:23:35] Speaker B: You were about to get in line because I had. That's a whole nother topic. [00:23:40] Speaker A: But anyway, we didn't even say you're. [00:23:41] Speaker B: My maid of honor right now. [00:23:42] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. [00:23:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:23:44] Speaker A: Anyway, just let everybody know. Our podcast is called It's Mama Clock somewhere. We're going by Mama Clock. [00:23:51] Speaker B: Yes. [00:23:52] Speaker A: So that's just that. And the reason for that, we didn't talk about what Mama Clock is. [00:23:57] Speaker B: No. [00:23:57] Speaker A: What is the podcast? [00:23:58] Speaker B: What are these? What are these for? [00:24:00] Speaker A: But anyway, so that's a little bit about us. And basically, I am. This is just, like, my calling. I've always wanted to either, like, just be in front of the camera. [00:24:10] Speaker B: She's like a reality star. [00:24:11] Speaker A: I mean, I danced my whole life. I just. I danced my whole life. I was always in front of the camera. I was always, like, center of attention. That's just, like, my vibe. [00:24:19] Speaker B: So annoying. [00:24:20] Speaker A: So annoying. I know. Whatever. And. [00:24:22] Speaker B: And I'm literally hiding behind. [00:24:23] Speaker A: No, she's a hider. And sometimes people like me bring out people like her. [00:24:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:24:27] Speaker A: So anyway, I've always wanted to do, like, something like that, but I felt like there's so many podcasts out there. Like, why are we even gonna do this? It's, like, gonna be so hard. [00:24:36] Speaker B: Like, there are a lot and I don't. I'm not like, a podcast listener. But ever since, like, we idea, I've been doing research. [00:24:42] Speaker A: You've been really doing your homework. [00:24:43] Speaker B: I'VE been doing my homework and there are a lot. But like, I think I feel like some podcasts just like hit and like, they hit. [00:24:49] Speaker A: Certain people hit or they don't hit. [00:24:50] Speaker B: Yeah. And like, we just want to be super relatable. That's our thing. That is, we want to be authentically ourselves and relatable and. And like we want to say something and it might be like so crazy outlandish. And then someone may be driving in the car is like, oh, my God, they feel that way too. [00:25:05] Speaker A: Because I feel that I'm choking. [00:25:08] Speaker B: Don't choke. I don't know the Heimlich. Even though I am CPR certified, I'm not. [00:25:12] Speaker A: So anyway, starting podcast. Starting a podcast is like our calling. I just feel like it was meant for me, but like, maybe not meant for you, but also meant for you because you were so relatable. [00:25:21] Speaker B: Maybe. But like, put me in front of Mike. I'm Titty E. You're Teddy A. Yes, I am. I'm a rapper. [00:25:28] Speaker A: It's me, Day. [00:25:28] Speaker B: Hey, D. It's me A. It's Mama Clock somewhere. Mama clock. Mama clock 24 7. Tick tock. Give me this, give me that. Mommy, can I have a snack? Overworked, underpaid daddy wants to get laid. Grab my tit. Holy shit. Can I have a sec to sit? No, I can't. Cause it's Mama Clock. I'm on the clock. Mama Clock. [00:25:49] Speaker A: Now I'm sweating. [00:25:50] Speaker B: Oh, sorry. [00:25:50] Speaker A: How to get that out? [00:25:51] Speaker B: Yeah, okay. [00:25:52] Speaker A: So anyway, so podcast, I think it's just our call and I don't know, I just feel like we always talk about this or me personally, I always. [00:25:59] Speaker B: Say to you, you talk in your head. [00:26:00] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm an overthinker. I'm always like, when someone talks to me. I love nothing more than when I could. I asked my husband, like, he even says that I switch my mind a lot, but when someone talks to me, I really take it seriously and I relate it to myself. I'm like, thank you for saying that because it makes me feel less crazy, more accurate in some sense. [00:26:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:21] Speaker A: Sometimes I feel like I can feel more valid in the way I'm feeling. Like I just feel I want someone to feel that from us and it's like our therapy. [00:26:29] Speaker B: Like, yeah, this is. [00:26:31] Speaker A: This feels so. [00:26:32] Speaker B: I have not felt so free of granted. I'm not with my three fucking crazy ass animals right now. I just feel like I'm an adult talking to another adult mom who's not really an adult or children. I still feel like, I'm 16 and pregnant. [00:26:46] Speaker A: Were you 6? [00:26:49] Speaker B: No, I was not 10. She's really gullible. [00:26:52] Speaker A: Yeah, it's really bad. [00:26:53] Speaker B: It's so bad. It's funny, but it's bad. [00:26:55] Speaker A: Yeah, it's bad. [00:26:55] Speaker B: Cute, but you're bad. [00:26:56] Speaker A: Cute, but you're bad. [00:26:58] Speaker B: Do you see this? Reach ran. [00:26:59] Speaker A: I know. [00:27:00] Speaker B: Vic, I need Vic, I need another drink anyway. I have to pick up my son soon. [00:27:06] Speaker A: No. What time is it? [00:27:07] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:27:08] Speaker A: Oh, 1:34. We're fine. We have an hour. [00:27:10] Speaker B: Oh, this is good. [00:27:11] Speaker A: I just want to tell real stories. I want people to ask real questions. Eventually. [00:27:16] Speaker B: We want Collins. We're going to get call. [00:27:17] Speaker A: I want to tell people my struggles. I want to be authentic. I want to be real. And I know a lot of people out there are real and people just look at them as opinionated, but I just want to be real. I want someone to listen to us and just say, I feel that. I have felt that. This is what I did. This is what I feel like I could do now. Don't be afraid to speak. Like, I want. I want unfiltered stories. [00:27:38] Speaker B: Yeah. Also just like us being moms. Because that is. I mean, for me, that's my identity right now. And I feel like so many moms are going through it and they don't really talk about it. And like, yeah. You could be on your kitchen floor crying. And, like, I want to be like, I want you to relate to me. Yeah. Even though, like, if you personally look like you have your shit together. [00:27:56] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:27:56] Speaker B: And then, like, you talk about it and maybe you don't, someone will be like, oh, wow. She, like, actually isn't perfect. [00:28:01] Speaker A: Like, that's what I feel like. I mean, we were. Oh, is it fine? [00:28:05] Speaker B: Maybe. [00:28:05] Speaker A: Can you come fix this, Mike? Anyway, so I just want a real struggles, real stories, and unfiltered mom life. [00:28:12] Speaker B: And we're not talking, like, we don't know facts. [00:28:15] Speaker A: We don't know facts. [00:28:17] Speaker B: Let's put that out there right now. We know nothing about nothing. Everything. [00:28:22] Speaker A: We know nothing. But I don't know statistics. I don't know what's out there. I just know me and my experiences. And I didn't go through, like, traumas in life, so I know. How intuitive am I? [00:28:33] Speaker B: Very. [00:28:33] Speaker A: And you just know. I feel like you know a lot. [00:28:36] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:36] Speaker A: I mean, you just do as a mom. I just feel like. Yeah, you just, like, were meant for this life, so you just know so much about it. [00:28:41] Speaker B: Yeah. Which brings us into our next topic. What's that you said. [00:28:47] Speaker A: What did I say? [00:28:48] Speaker B: No, we're both stay at home moms currently. [00:28:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:28:50] Speaker B: Because people don't know that. [00:28:51] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. First of all, how the fuck are we? [00:28:55] Speaker B: Are we moms? How are we moms? [00:28:56] Speaker A: No, I have a serious question. [00:28:58] Speaker B: I'm sweating. How are we moms? [00:29:01] Speaker A: How is anybody a mom? [00:29:02] Speaker B: No. Like, why isn't there an interview or a resume or anything? Like, if you're a lawyer, you have to go through a grueling process to be a lawyer. Which, like, lawyers are awesome, great. [00:29:13] Speaker A: But like, so happy for you. [00:29:15] Speaker B: I feel like mom being a mom is the hardest job in the whole entire world. [00:29:17] Speaker A: I don't give a fuck what anybody says because I've heard some shit. [00:29:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:29:23] Speaker A: People just saying. And it's like just so stereo. Stereotypical? Stereotypical? Is that the word? [00:29:28] Speaker B: Yes. [00:29:29] Speaker A: And listen, I know nowadays people look at moms as like the hardest job in the world, but I've heard, like, just recently I've just been like researching and listening more and there's people out there that are still like, why aren't you working? Yeah, first of all, mind your business. Yeah, that's one. And secondly, I feel like there is. [00:29:47] Speaker B: Still such a stigma. [00:29:48] Speaker A: There is. I still feel it. I mean, as a girl that actually worked for like the first six years before she had a kid, I just feel like I still feel that from people. Like, people look at like, my job is like, not as important as theirs. And I mean, even this one woman was like, being a stay at home mom, where's your 9 to 5? I'm like, are we still doing that? Are we still doing where's your 9 to 5? Because that's not a thing. Because people who have a nine to five don't work the nine to five. [00:30:11] Speaker B: Right. Yeah. I mean, even I tell my husband this. Working moms, they, they are amazing too. Like, I'm not knocking them at all. But, like, if you have a job, like, just getting into your car, like, having a second to like, turn on the radio at home, I don't have that. Like, I really don't. I am on the clock, mama. Clock 247 TikTok. [00:30:30] Speaker A: I just said this to Michael the other day. Like, we both go to work and like, it's even hard for me to look at it like this. Yeah, we both go to. He leaves for work. I don't leave for work. But I have a job. I take care of my kid. I don't look at it as a job because I want to be doing it. Not that people don't want to be working, but you know what I mean? [00:30:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:48] Speaker A: And he comes home. Most men or most husbands are off the clock. The job's done. Right. We don't get to come home. [00:30:57] Speaker B: And there's no off the clock. [00:30:58] Speaker A: There's no off the clock. My job doesn't end. But what I love about my marriage is when he comes home, I'm off the clock and he's off the clock. So we do it. We do everything together. That took us a little bit to get there. [00:31:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:10] Speaker A: Sometimes you have to like tell men. [00:31:12] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, men are stupid. [00:31:14] Speaker A: You have to tell men. [00:31:15] Speaker B: Men are so. [00:31:15] Speaker A: I know he had it in them, but sometimes you have to be like, okay, huh? [00:31:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:19] Speaker A: What are we doing here? [00:31:20] Speaker B: Right. [00:31:20] Speaker A: But that's my point. [00:31:21] Speaker B: It really, it takes like a lot to learn how being a new parent, being a new mom, and especially us, we're like very. [00:31:28] Speaker A: Go, go, go. [00:31:29] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. You guys are so busy all the time. But like new marriages, new adding a baby, adding a dog, like it's just like a lot. You have to figure out what is what works for you. [00:31:38] Speaker A: And I get overwhelmed very quickly. I'm very independent. I have been my whole life, but I get overwhelmed. [00:31:44] Speaker B: I do. [00:31:44] Speaker A: And I just anxiety. I have anxiety currently. [00:31:47] Speaker B: So much, take a Xanax and shut up. Drink my drink and be the drunk while I'm at the pickup line. [00:31:55] Speaker A: I know. Sin. No, we're not driving after this. [00:31:58] Speaker B: I'm just kidding. [00:31:59] Speaker A: No, but back to what we're saying, like, how the fuck are we moms? So my job before being a stay at home mom, I worked basically as. [00:32:05] Speaker B: A espresso bean in my mouth. You worked, you did the corporate. So tell us about it. Because I've never done that. [00:32:11] Speaker A: Yeah, fuck corporate. Corporate America is just like needs to transition. I don't want to get into that Anyway, so I'm sure there's good corporate jobs out there, but not, not around me. So anyway, so I was basically a headhunter. So I worked in the industry of interview process and getting people jobs. So I've seen it all. [00:32:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:32] Speaker A: For years. And it is not easy to get a job. [00:32:35] Speaker B: Okay. [00:32:36] Speaker A: There's a lot of requirements nowadays the interview process are sometimes so absurd where I had to like tell clients like, this is crazy. [00:32:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:44] Speaker A: I mean what you have to go through preparation wise requirements, what you need to have experience with is absolutely astronomical. Especially for like high paying jobs. Like forget the low, the entry levels. Like, I mean, and not only, I. [00:32:57] Speaker B: Mean even that, you still have to have A resume. You still have to have a resume. [00:32:59] Speaker A: Not only that, you have to get, prepare, have the experience, do all that stuff, but get there and have to interview. [00:33:04] Speaker B: Right. [00:33:04] Speaker A: You can have all of that and then get there and botch the interview, and then you don't get the job. [00:33:08] Speaker B: Right. But you just fake it till you make it. [00:33:11] Speaker A: We have children. They're handed to us. And you have to be a mom. [00:33:15] Speaker B: I mean, you don't have to do anything to be a mom, but lay there like a dead fish and get a little nut in you, and then, boom, nine months later, you're pregnant. I. I didn't do anything. [00:33:24] Speaker A: There's no resume. There's no process. There's nothing. [00:33:27] Speaker B: Your mom. [00:33:28] Speaker A: Your mom and figure. Figure it the fuck out. [00:33:30] Speaker B: That's actually terrifying. [00:33:31] Speaker A: And we're not paid. [00:33:32] Speaker B: No. Underpaid. [00:33:34] Speaker A: We're underpaid. [00:33:35] Speaker B: Negative. [00:33:36] Speaker A: If paid at all. [00:33:37] Speaker B: Venmo me. Daddy's out there. [00:33:39] Speaker A: Daddy. Call her mommy. So that's. That's. That is so crazy to me that. [00:33:45] Speaker B: Anyone can be a mom. I mean, like, don't have to have the inter. You have nothing. But you know what's even crazier as a mom? And you're looking for, like, a babysitter or nanny. You're interviewing for that. [00:33:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:55] Speaker B: And I got the job. [00:33:56] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:56] Speaker B: Like, now I'm interviewing someone to take care of. [00:33:58] Speaker A: Do it like I do it. [00:33:59] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, how are you gonna do that? That. We'll talk about that. But. [00:34:03] Speaker A: But that's our point. Like, there is no process to being a mom. That's why I feel like the struggle is so real when you become a mom. That's why postpartum exists. I mean, not only does your body go through the chemical imbalance. It does. I just feel like also that's why. [00:34:18] Speaker B: It'S okay to not have everything together, because, like, nobody really knows what they're doing. [00:34:23] Speaker A: And I honestly, I mean, we're gonna absolutely get into this, like, on a later date. I definitely struggled. Still struggling. But I'm okay with the struggle now. I wasn't. [00:34:32] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:34:33] Speaker A: And you were the first, maybe the only person besides, like, maybe like my best friend Val, who called me out and was like, you're not okay. No, I absolutely wasn't okay. But from the outside, like, I just told you this the other day, like, I was always that daughter, that friend, that was like, you have it all together. What did I say? It was like, you have it all together. I'm the all together girl. Yeah, like something like that. I just, like, have it all together at all times, so no one thinks, like, check in on me. Like, oh, I thought, like, you look. [00:35:02] Speaker B: Like you have everything together. [00:35:03] Speaker A: Yeah. I even talk like it. Which I. Most of the time. [00:35:05] Speaker B: Like, I said that you always seem like the most confident girl in the room. [00:35:08] Speaker A: Yeah. Which, like, by the way, can we. [00:35:11] Speaker B: Talk about your nails real quick? Okay. [00:35:13] Speaker A: I have had my nails. I mean, I grew up. My mom was always like, you need to have your nails and feet done, painted at all times of the day. I don't care what happens if you chip it, you gotta go. Like, that's how I grew up. Like, my nails and toes were always painted. They were done nicely my whole life. [00:35:27] Speaker B: No. [00:35:27] Speaker A: Except for I was watching the Bachelor there and I ripped them off. I've never done that in my life. For the first time in 30 years, I have nothing on my nails. I'm embarrassed. The funny part is she never has anything on her nails. And she does. They're, like, nicely done. I'm just. You know what they say, what? The woman in the room who has nothing on their nails is the most often. That's where my error is. [00:35:48] Speaker B: And I'm running to the nail salon. [00:35:50] Speaker A: You're running. But anyway, like, as you said, like, you just always feel like, I don't know, like, you're. To me, you just. You'll never fall over the ledge. Like, you might have anxiety, you might go through this and that, but you, like, actually always have it together, no matter what you go through. And that's why I feel like I. You inspire me so much, like, in that sense. Cause, like, I just envy that. [00:36:07] Speaker B: Well, thank you. [00:36:08] Speaker A: But I think I just was, like, always put on this, like, always being okay pedestal, and I didn't think I could ever come down from it. So I was always not okay, like, by myself. [00:36:18] Speaker B: Right. [00:36:18] Speaker A: I always, like, hid in the corner to be not okay. And I think you called me out and I was like, oh, my God. Like, yeah, I'm struggling hard. [00:36:26] Speaker B: We're gonna have a whole segment on postpartum. But there was a point where I just knew, like, yeah, you just. There's. [00:36:34] Speaker A: You need to talk about even talking, like, helped. [00:36:38] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:36:38] Speaker A: You know, so. But. [00:36:41] Speaker B: So stay at home moms. [00:36:42] Speaker A: Stay at home moms. [00:36:43] Speaker B: Oh, well, you didn't even say how. So you're a stay at home mom now. But you did try to work and have for a little bit. [00:36:49] Speaker A: Yeah, for one week. [00:36:50] Speaker B: For one week. She lasted one week. I made her a care package of work. [00:36:54] Speaker A: You did? You did. [00:36:55] Speaker B: I was like, oh, she's going to crush it. She's going to feel good getting out there putting on an outfit. [00:37:00] Speaker A: In the end, everybody know I'm a working girl. Like I'm that businesswoman. [00:37:03] Speaker B: Like, like, you want to be that. [00:37:06] Speaker A: If my husband didn't own a company and like was the breadwinner, like I could potentially be that. Like, that's how much I love to strive to like be the best. [00:37:14] Speaker B: And I'm like the absolute opposite. Like in college I wanted to create ccf, cook, clean, where that's all I did. [00:37:20] Speaker A: I didn't know that. [00:37:21] Speaker B: And actually working on it. Working on it. But I don't want to cook or. [00:37:25] Speaker A: Clean sometimes while I'm sleeping. So anyway, yeah. So I never strive to be a stay at home mom. I never was like, I can't wait to marry somebody who's financially stable and I could just never work again. Like, I never thought of that in my life. [00:37:38] Speaker B: And it's so interesting that like you can just switch. [00:37:41] Speaker A: Like, I mean, I walk. I mean, listen, they were shocked when I said I was leaving, but I. [00:37:45] Speaker B: Remember you called me and she was like, I did it. I quit. I go, what? [00:37:48] Speaker A: Yeah. I know you didn't expect. [00:37:49] Speaker B: You're like, I did it, I'm done. [00:37:51] Speaker A: I don't think I told my husband. I just walked out. [00:37:52] Speaker B: I was so happy. [00:37:53] Speaker A: I know. So I was like, you know the reason I just, I just felt that I couldn't imagine, like, why would I have a kid for someone else to raise my kid, Whether it was my mom, my mother in law, like, it just didn't feel natural to me. And granted, being a stay at home mom was harder than going into work that first week. [00:38:12] Speaker B: Right. It's really hard. [00:38:14] Speaker A: Really hard. So, yeah, I mean, maybe one day I'll go back to work. But right now, like, I just feel like I'm finally. To the day. I feel like it took me like a year. Yeah. To finally feel. But you, you were like stay at home mom when you were in seventh grade. [00:38:27] Speaker B: Ride or die, stay at home, baby. [00:38:28] Speaker A: Yeah. Which I feel like that's why it was so less of a struggle for you. [00:38:33] Speaker B: Yes. [00:38:33] Speaker A: Because you wanted that. Since we also have, we have such different lives. Like you've been with somebody since you were a kid. You know, their lives in and out. Like I had that, but it doesn't mean that I, you know, I just feel like you. [00:38:44] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, we're also super different in a lot of ways, but also similar. [00:38:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:38:48] Speaker B: Type A, type B, type C. No, I have never met Someone who. She's so type A in so many ways. But then, like, she'll forget her car keys in her phone when she goes. Going into the car, like a type B person would do. And I'm like, a type A person wouldn't do that. But, like, you did it. [00:39:06] Speaker A: Yeah, I did. [00:39:07] Speaker B: So I don't know what you are. You're like a B positive. [00:39:10] Speaker A: I'm like, the whole Alphabet. [00:39:11] Speaker B: You need help. [00:39:12] Speaker A: I need help. No, totally. I am like. [00:39:15] Speaker B: And I am, like, full on type B. [00:39:16] Speaker A: You're such a type. [00:39:17] Speaker B: Just tell me what to do and I'll do it. [00:39:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:39:19] Speaker B: I don't want to make decisions. I'm an absolute mess. Chaos. [00:39:24] Speaker A: You're such. You're the best type, bae. And I'm not just saying that. Like, I. There's. There's rare people out there like you. [00:39:30] Speaker B: That's right. I'm one of a couple. [00:39:31] Speaker A: You are. I mean, you really are. And Michael said it from the jump. You're like, you're going to want to be her friend. [00:39:35] Speaker B: Wow. [00:39:36] Speaker A: I'm already her friend. So off. Yeah. [00:39:38] Speaker B: Really? [00:39:38] Speaker A: What Mama Clock is, is, like, not only are we never off the clock, it can also be like, it's my time. I'm going to get a massage. I'm going to Pilates. Like, mama Clock. [00:39:47] Speaker B: Like, it's so. It's so everything. [00:39:50] Speaker A: It's everything. [00:39:50] Speaker B: Mama Clock. Okay. I. I truly feel like I'm always on the clock at home. [00:39:55] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:39:55] Speaker B: Because, like, I'm the default parent. My husband works a lot. I have three babies. Like, it's a lot. Yeah. But now, like, this is Mama Clock. Like, our time. Like, I can have a espresso martini in the middle of the day. And guess what? I'm not mad about it. [00:40:08] Speaker A: It's mom o'clock somewhere. [00:40:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:40:10] Speaker A: And right now is here. Right now, we're gonna talk about mental. When we were just the mental load that moms carry. The invisible load that you have to explain to your husband and your family. And it's still not noticeable. It's invisible. That's why it's invisible. [00:40:26] Speaker B: And like, yeah, it's in. It's in our heads, but, like, it's innate to us as mothers. [00:40:30] Speaker A: Correct. [00:40:31] Speaker B: Like, my husband, I say this all the time. Like, he doesn't feel the way I feel. Like, if. If my kid, like, bumps his knee or, like, does something, like, I'll be like. Like, I feel it in my bones. And, like, my husband will just. Like, he's fine. And I feel like a lot of men are like, that. Which is okay, but it's just not us moms. Like, we. We feel for our babies so much. [00:40:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:40:50] Speaker B: I could cry. [00:40:51] Speaker A: You're literally gonna cry. You're gonna make me cry. [00:40:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:40:53] Speaker A: Like, I feel that's on a crazy level. [00:40:57] Speaker B: Yeah. And I think that a lot. [00:40:58] Speaker A: The other day, when my son was eating in his kitchen helper. [00:41:02] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:02] Speaker A: And we were trying to talk, and he was, like, throwing his plate, and I was, like, worried about hitting him in the face or, like, the food going down his throat. Like, that's weird. Crazy things. [00:41:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:12] Speaker A: No, I couldn't even focus. And Michael wouldn't even. Not that he doesn't care. [00:41:16] Speaker B: No. It's not that they don't care. It's just that men aren't able. [00:41:20] Speaker A: Not there. [00:41:20] Speaker B: No. And it's not even, like, a fault of theirs. I think it's just, like, the way we were made. [00:41:25] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:41:25] Speaker B: Just straight up, like, we're made different. [00:41:27] Speaker A: Yeah. And I'm trying to think of another example. I just feel like my mind is always going in that direction of, like. I can't explain, like, when we're out to eat, Like, I feel. [00:41:39] Speaker B: Yeah. You're just. [00:41:40] Speaker A: You're the bothersome that he feels. [00:41:42] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:43] Speaker A: If he's out of routine, he doesn't like the car seat. Like, even. I was explaining this to someone the other day. I was, like, even putting him in the car seat. I feel bad. Like, I just constantly just. [00:41:54] Speaker B: You just constantly feel. [00:41:55] Speaker A: I just constantly feel bad. I'm like. Because he doesn't want to be in the car seat. Clearly. Would you want to be locked in a car seat? No. So I just. Him. It's like, just put him in the car seat. It's fine. Like, we're gonna go to me, I'm like, the hassle. I'm like, I feel so bad. This kid has to be put in a car seat, doesn't want to be in the car. [00:42:08] Speaker B: Yeah. I think it just comes down to us, like, really strong emotions for our children. [00:42:13] Speaker A: I wonder if moms out there aren't bothered by. [00:42:17] Speaker B: I think there are. They could be good moms, too. [00:42:19] Speaker A: Definitely. [00:42:20] Speaker B: That are just not as, like, in touch with, like, feeling that way. [00:42:25] Speaker A: Yeah. I wonder why, though. [00:42:26] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:42:27] Speaker A: Like, why do I. Colin. [00:42:29] Speaker B: I always blame it on how you feel. [00:42:31] Speaker A: No, seriously. Why do I. Is it postpartum? I blame everything on postpartum. Maybe it's not. Maybe I'm just a mom. [00:42:38] Speaker B: I don't know. What's the window of postpartum? Can you be out of It. [00:42:41] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:42:42] Speaker B: Are we out of postpartum? [00:42:43] Speaker A: I. I really do feel like we think differently also. [00:42:47] Speaker B: I think it comes into play being the default parent. Like, yeah, just. You're. [00:42:52] Speaker A: You're can talk on that. Because I feel like Gio's just getting at the age where he wants Mom. [00:42:58] Speaker B: Right. Oh, Mommy. Everything. I feel like, tell the story where. [00:43:02] Speaker A: You'Re on the couch. [00:43:02] Speaker B: Oh, my God. My kids do this all the time. It's like Daddy is sitting right there, right next to them, and I could be in the shower upstairs, and they will run up the stairs and say, mommy, I need a tissue. I'll be like, dad was right there on the couch. Why didn't you ask him? And it's just like, that's their thing. They just. They need me default. [00:43:22] Speaker A: Like, when you're. That's why. That's why it's having more than one kid, which I absolutely am. But it's hard to process. It's like, how do you give them all? [00:43:31] Speaker B: It's hard. It's definitely hard. [00:43:32] Speaker A: But you're the default. And your husband helps you, but. [00:43:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:35] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:43:35] Speaker B: Oh, no, he's very helpful. Yeah. [00:43:36] Speaker A: But it's just like, you are that person. Sometimes you're like, leave me the alone. [00:43:41] Speaker B: Yeah. That's why I have mama clock. [00:43:43] Speaker A: Go to Daddy. [00:43:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Sometimes they're like, you don't do that. No, I do. [00:43:49] Speaker A: Do you? [00:43:49] Speaker B: Sometimes. I mean, I don't say, leave me the alone. [00:43:52] Speaker A: I would. No. [00:43:54] Speaker B: Yeah. I'll just be like, I need a second. Mommy's going to shower. [00:43:57] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:43:57] Speaker B: And then I'll be in the shower. [00:43:58] Speaker A: You do say that. [00:43:59] Speaker B: And then they'll be in the shower with me. [00:44:01] Speaker A: You'll be washing their balls. Yeah. But I just feel like, how do people handle that? [00:44:08] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, it's a lot to handle, and I think people handle it differently. It just takes it. [00:44:15] Speaker A: How do you handle it? [00:44:17] Speaker B: I mean, I drink. Just kidding. I really don't drink that much, but I don't know. I feel like I'm so used to it. And so the weird thing about me is, like, I enjoy it, like, so much, being like. I enjoy being that, like, for them where, like. [00:44:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:44:31] Speaker B: Like, I. There's not really a second where I'm like. Like, I wish I wasn't. [00:44:35] Speaker A: You never put yourself first. [00:44:37] Speaker B: I mean, I do. No, I mean, you don't. Yeah, I guess. [00:44:41] Speaker A: But it's not a bad thing. [00:44:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:44] Speaker A: But I look at you and I'm like, you need this. [00:44:48] Speaker B: Yeah. No, this is why. This is great for me. I needed Something. [00:44:51] Speaker A: But you also have been doing this for five years. [00:44:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:54] Speaker A: Like being the default parent. [00:44:55] Speaker B: Right. [00:44:55] Speaker A: Like you need a minute. [00:44:56] Speaker B: You just do. [00:44:57] Speaker A: Even if you don't think you do, if you don't feel you do, if you don't want to. [00:45:00] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, that's like, before I. Right before I had Rocco, or right when I had Rocco, I turned to Joe and I was like, it was postpartum. I had a 2 year old and a 1 year old in Rocco. And I was like, I'm not gonna survive this. Like, I need help. Like, we need to hire somebody. Like, I have. And I have my mom. My mom is like the most helpful. She is my everything. But I needed like outside help. And that's when we hired Sandra. And she is life saving. [00:45:27] Speaker A: I mean, it took you a little bit to separate. [00:45:32] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:45:33] Speaker A: Even with the babysitter. [00:45:35] Speaker B: Yeah. But like, I. I needed it. I wasn't gonna be able to like, be a person to my husband when he got home if I didn't have help. Like, I. I was just. Or do anything really at all. So, like, that's why you need to ask for help when you need help. [00:45:48] Speaker A: I know I struggle with that. [00:45:50] Speaker B: You need help. [00:45:50] Speaker A: I know. I just. But then I look at you. This is my problem. I look at you, I'm like, you did this and you didn't need help until your third kid. Like, why? [00:45:57] Speaker B: But like, also, I did have help. Like, I have my mom. My mom. I know I'm very helpful. [00:46:00] Speaker A: I live far, far from my parents, but I have my in laws who help a lot. But also my sister in law has two kids, which is my in. My husband's sister has two kids. So, you know, we're not the only kid in the family. [00:46:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:11] Speaker A: And you know, your sister in law doesn't live here. [00:46:13] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:14] Speaker A: It's not like there's more kids around, but. [00:46:15] Speaker B: Well, I do. My. My brother. [00:46:17] Speaker A: Oh, your brother. Yes. Right, right, right. [00:46:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:19] Speaker A: But your mom, does your mom help with them sometimes? [00:46:22] Speaker B: She just had a baby, so they're kind of in their newborn bubble. Yeah, but will she help with them? Yeah, she will, definitely. [00:46:28] Speaker A: Yeah. I just feel like I don't really have help. Right. [00:46:30] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, not really. I mean, I don't. Not like consistently. [00:46:34] Speaker A: Like, I don't have someone here every day. [00:46:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:36] Speaker A: Like I'll. My mom will stop in or I'll go there for lunch. Like I don't have a consistent mom here or anything like that. And it gets lonely one. [00:46:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:46] Speaker A: And it's hard. I just feel bad Saying I need help with one kid. [00:46:50] Speaker B: But I feel like people you could help with no kids, like you need help, you need help. It's like whatever. [00:46:57] Speaker A: I don't even know what I need help with. I just, I just feel these lights are making me fucking so hot. [00:47:03] Speaker B: Are we on stage? [00:47:05] Speaker A: Anyway, I was just sweating so much I had to get up. [00:47:08] Speaker B: Well, now you're good. And here we are. [00:47:10] Speaker A: So anyhow, back to what I was saying just to finish that thought off. It is really hard for me to ask for help. And listen, I'm not like drowning, but I struggle on a day to day. I definitely do. [00:47:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:47:22] Speaker A: And let me tell you why. [00:47:24] Speaker B: Tell me, talk about it. [00:47:25] Speaker A: I live a very. [00:47:28] Speaker B: You're. You have a. You have a busy life. You have a full busy life. Your husband has his own company. You have Geo and Bama. And you're always doing. You have so many people. My people. You need to do this. [00:47:41] Speaker A: And we're the, like, we do everything. [00:47:43] Speaker B: Oh, they're the double book bookers. [00:47:44] Speaker A: Triple bookers. But I just feel like I need someone to say, your life is so busy, like it's okay to have. No one says that to me because again, resorting back to. I know, but resorting back to you're the girl that is always going to be fine. [00:47:59] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:47:59] Speaker A: Why would you need, why would you need someone to tell you that? [00:48:01] Speaker B: Yeah. But. [00:48:02] Speaker A: And I just feel like I do. Like I, I would say at least once a day, like I have a struggle of some sort. I just. And I'm. And I. And it's so hard for me to be a burden on somebody. I know my husband needs to get up and go to work and like I know that people have lies and can't just come here and you know, I chose to be a stay at home mom. So there's so many thoughts that goes through your head. [00:48:25] Speaker B: You don't bother. [00:48:25] Speaker A: There's so many things. I don't bother anything. Like, did I get anything? [00:48:27] Speaker B: Well, that's what you tell me when I'm feeling guilty. You're like, you hired somebody so you can go do the things you want, right? [00:48:33] Speaker A: Pay somebody to do it. [00:48:34] Speaker B: So like that's why I feel less guilty when it's like the nanny. [00:48:38] Speaker A: But yeah, I just, it's hard, it's very hard to ask for help. I still haven't asked for help. I still have yet to ask for help. Sometimes like I need help but like I've never actually asked anybody for help. [00:48:46] Speaker B: It's crying. [00:48:47] Speaker A: Your pillow literally cry every single day. And like wiping my tears and then like kissing my son. But no, all in all, I think it's really hard to ask for help. And I just look at you sometimes. I'm like, she didn't need help, like until now, which is five years later. [00:48:59] Speaker B: That's just not true. [00:49:00] Speaker A: I know. [00:49:00] Speaker B: You don't know. [00:49:01] Speaker A: What's not true is you don't know what anybody goes through. So I need people to stop looking at people and thinking like everything is great and dandy because it ain't. And I'm telling you that right now. Not everybody's life is great. [00:49:14] Speaker B: No. Everybody has a story. Everybody has a struggle. [00:49:17] Speaker A: And it's okay because that doesn't mean your life is struggling. [00:49:21] Speaker B: No, just we're human. [00:49:23] Speaker A: Yeah. Are we? I want to be a robot so bad. [00:49:26] Speaker B: I don't. [00:49:27] Speaker A: I would love to be like a sexy robot. [00:49:30] Speaker B: Oh, I wouldn't be sexy. [00:49:32] Speaker A: You would not be sexy robot. Just to go off of that. Yeah, you lucked out. [00:49:37] Speaker B: I hit no. [00:49:39] Speaker A: Like there's nothing like that. [00:49:41] Speaker B: No. And my. [00:49:42] Speaker A: She hired someone from care.com. [00:49:43] Speaker B: I did. I love her. [00:49:45] Speaker A: Who's at 11 out of 10, a. [00:49:47] Speaker B: Thousand out of 10. [00:49:48] Speaker A: And she'll have her for the rest of her life, I hope. [00:49:50] Speaker B: Don't ever leave me. [00:49:50] Speaker A: If you're listening, don't ever leave. [00:49:52] Speaker B: Oh, she'll listen. She is our biggest fan, definitely. [00:49:54] Speaker A: But I mean I grew up with, I don't like to say au pair because basically she basically was. But from before birth. So she was my family. They don't make it like that anymore. And not because I've heard all these stories. Like stories are stories. You're always going to hear the negative stories. But they actually don't make people like that anymore. I don't know how to hire somebody unless it's legit family. But it's so hard to hire family unless you literally pay them, which we would. But to even find family that is going to do that. So you have to hire externally. Where the fuck am I looking? Because I don't know. [00:50:30] Speaker B: I mean I did care.com and I was super nervous about it. [00:50:32] Speaker A: Was it a long process for you? Like how long did it take? [00:50:34] Speaker B: You know, it's weird. [00:50:35] Speaker A: One and done. [00:50:35] Speaker B: It was so easy for me. [00:50:37] Speaker A: That's crazy. [00:50:38] Speaker B: And I, my, my best friend is going through it right now. She's in the interviewing nanny process. She's going back to work. She's a second time mom and she has to go back to work and she has horror nanny stories. [00:50:49] Speaker A: We'll get into it. [00:50:50] Speaker B: We'll get into it, but she's in the process. And it is. It is so intense. Like, because you're trusting somebody with your life. [00:50:58] Speaker A: I could never hire. I would, because I'm so easy in the sense I'd be like, yeah, she's good. Why wouldn't we hire her? No, that I murder my children. [00:51:05] Speaker B: When I. When I found my. I call her my mother's helper, but she's literally family to me now. She came over, we did a phone interview, then she came over. She played with my kids. I just got the best feeling, like I didn't need to hear anymore. I called her references, of course, but, like, she just vibed so well, and she was just. Was so great with my kids, and she was calm yet stern and, like. And like, most times, so bizarre that. [00:51:30] Speaker A: You watch somebody nanny your kids. [00:51:31] Speaker B: Yeah, but, like, most of the time, I'm home with her anyway. [00:51:34] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:51:34] Speaker B: So, like, I mean. But I could see how. [00:51:39] Speaker A: I mean, you do leave her alone. [00:51:40] Speaker B: Yeah, I do leave her. Oh, yeah. Like right now. Well, my mom's. [00:51:43] Speaker A: Yeah, but you do leave her. [00:51:44] Speaker B: Yeah, but, like, in the beginning, like, when I had a newborn, and that's. [00:51:48] Speaker A: Got to be so hard. Yeah, but you got over the stage of feeling like something could happen with this nanny. [00:51:54] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Like, I. Full on trust. I trust her with my life. [00:51:56] Speaker A: Like, how long did it take you to get there until you stopped thinking that she could be. [00:52:01] Speaker B: Honestly, it was pretty quick because I really just. I. It was like a gut feeling, like, she's not gonna hurt my kids. She. She's not gonna, like, rob us or kill us. [00:52:10] Speaker A: I wouldn't even care about the robbing. Take my. I don't care. It's like, children. [00:52:15] Speaker B: No, I know, but. Yeah, I mean, I just got. I just. [00:52:18] Speaker A: And you were so. That you're scared of, like, that kind. [00:52:20] Speaker B: Of scared of everything. [00:52:21] Speaker A: And you were fine with it? [00:52:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:52:22] Speaker A: Was Joey easy with that? [00:52:23] Speaker B: Yeah, he didn't. I mean, he didn't really have much. [00:52:26] Speaker A: I think I have trust issues, maybe. [00:52:29] Speaker B: Yeah, you have trust issues. Comes up, it all circles back, guys. Trust issues. I don't know. [00:52:35] Speaker A: I think it's just gonna be so hard for me to find somebody. Unless it's, like, somebody who knows somebody very well. I'd be fine with, like, a mutual. [00:52:44] Speaker B: That could happen, too. [00:52:45] Speaker A: I mean, my husband wants an au pair. My husband wants somebody living here. I don't think I could do that. [00:52:49] Speaker B: That's crazy. [00:52:50] Speaker A: But my mom did it. [00:52:51] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, we have Bobo shout out To Bobo. Bobo. Yeah. [00:52:56] Speaker A: But that was like a family thing. [00:52:57] Speaker B: No, that's. That's our. That's my husband's. Who's now my kids. Nanny one. [00:53:04] Speaker A: Cleaning lady. [00:53:05] Speaker B: Cleaning lady. [00:53:06] Speaker A: Yeah. So all in all, I just feel it's really hard to find somebody. And if you have anybody or send them over, can have a process for me to follow. I will absolutely try that. [00:53:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:18] Speaker A: Ask for help, because it's gonna be. I'll have my next kid by the time I decide. No. [00:53:24] Speaker B: Don't you hate that question? [00:53:25] Speaker A: Yeah, because I'm not ready. Yeah. Everyone asks me on a daily basis same. Actually, my husband looked at me the other day and was like, because I'm ovulating. And he was like, you're funny. [00:53:35] Speaker B: She's funny when she's ovulating. That's the only. [00:53:37] Speaker A: I'm at the end of my ovulation. [00:53:38] Speaker B: So I'm not that funny. [00:53:39] Speaker A: No. And my husband's like, so we can make a baby right now. [00:53:43] Speaker B: Isn't that crazy? [00:53:45] Speaker A: Crazy. I mean, no one has ovulation symptoms like I do. [00:53:48] Speaker B: Yeah, you're weird. [00:53:49] Speaker A: I'm so weird. I like, I don't need any ovulation sticks or any of that shit. I know. I'm like, all right, here we go. I mean, we were one and done. And that was. [00:53:57] Speaker B: Which you're very blessed for, and so am I. [00:53:59] Speaker A: God bless America. [00:54:01] Speaker B: You have one child and you feel like all your love is in him, right? And I have three. And I remember when I was pregnant with my second, I was like a. I told my mom. I was like. I was in the rocking chair. It was the night before I was gonna have Vienna. I was, like, crying, holding Joey. And I was like, mom, there's no way I could love another baby more than I love Joey. There's just no way. [00:54:22] Speaker A: Like, I don't get it. [00:54:24] Speaker B: No way, no how. Like, my heart is his. [00:54:27] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:54:27] Speaker B: And she was like, you'll see. And that's. You'll see. [00:54:31] Speaker A: So you feel like you equally love them the same. [00:54:33] Speaker B: Yes. [00:54:35] Speaker A: 100. 100. [00:54:36] Speaker B: Yes. [00:54:37] Speaker A: 300. [00:54:38] Speaker B: Yeah. That doesn't mean that, like, I. There's one that, like, I wouldn't want to wake up from a nap or. [00:54:43] Speaker A: Yeah, right, right, right, right. [00:54:44] Speaker B: But, yes, your heart just. [00:54:46] Speaker A: Do you love them differently? [00:54:49] Speaker B: No. [00:54:49] Speaker A: It's like, my love for Gia is like, I know he's gonna take care of me when I'm older. I know he's gonna come to the store with me. He's gonna be the one. Be like, mommy, I'll Come with you? [00:54:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:54:59] Speaker A: You know? [00:55:00] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't know. I love them the same. I'm also parenting them the same as of right now. Like, you have to discipline kids in different ways. But I just. My love is equal for. [00:55:13] Speaker A: Did it grow, like from kid to kid? [00:55:15] Speaker B: I mean, I don't know if it grew. It just like. Yeah. Like my heart expanded. Yes. [00:55:20] Speaker A: Like, I feel. I always looked nothing against. But only. Only children. [00:55:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:26] Speaker A: I always was like, how can parents have one child? [00:55:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:29] Speaker A: Granted there's situations where you can't have more than one kids. Understood. But to willingly just have one child, I was always like, that's crazy. That's weird. You have one child. Why would you do that? I'm at a place I will never have one child. I'm going to have more kids. Even if I deadly didn't want to. I will. [00:55:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:44] Speaker A: I am at a place where I understand, like having one kid. [00:55:48] Speaker B: Because all your love is there. [00:55:50] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, I'm gonna start crying. Cause I just, I feel like. [00:55:54] Speaker B: Like you're good. [00:55:55] Speaker A: Like. No, not that I'm good. I'm not content. I want a baby. I want to grow up. I want to go to the airport and have five little boys around me with my husband, only boys. Yeah. I want to have a million kids. And like, I want to do all that. I see all that. I feel all that. But I don't know. Like, I feel like he's my home. Like, I feel like he's my purpose. I feel as he's getting older, day by day. Hated the newborn stage, but that's a different story. I feel like recently, like I can't. [00:56:23] Speaker B: I mean, your best friend. Yeah. [00:56:25] Speaker A: Like my life. I'm going to. I. Yeah. [00:56:28] Speaker B: He's your everything. [00:56:29] Speaker A: I know. But when I have another kid, I don't think I can. [00:56:33] Speaker B: That's what I was saying. But you do. [00:56:35] Speaker A: Like, he's like, mommy. He's like, mommy, Mommy, Mommy. Like, how am I gonna hear mommy and then have to go change another diaper? I'm gonna be like, I can't do you just do. [00:56:44] Speaker B: It's like, you can't. [00:56:45] Speaker A: I love him so much. It's like I just spit 10 miles away. I love him so much. I know parents love their kid, but I just feel you love their. You love your kid the most. Like, I love my kid more than anybody ever does. [00:56:57] Speaker B: Nobody else loves their kid more than. [00:56:59] Speaker A: She's my. I can't explain it. [00:57:02] Speaker B: So being a mom it is. [00:57:04] Speaker A: Am I just feeling. Being a mom. [00:57:07] Speaker B: I think you're just feeling the mom. [00:57:08] Speaker A: Love because he's starting to say mommy and he's starting to be like. Like, he'll do something. Like, mom. [00:57:13] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:14] Speaker A: I'm like, what? You want me to look at what you're doing? [00:57:17] Speaker B: I know it's the best thing in the whole wide world, but you. [00:57:19] Speaker A: So back to what you're saying. You. I mean, of course you love all your. It's stupid to say. You obviously love all your kids equally. [00:57:26] Speaker B: But how it just. It. It just happened. [00:57:29] Speaker A: Come on, you have to have a favorite. You have to love more than the one, more than the other. [00:57:32] Speaker B: I don't, but, like, Vienna is the absolute shit. [00:57:35] Speaker A: Vienna's your favorite. Just say it. [00:57:36] Speaker B: She's not my favorite, but she's, like, perfect. She is just in the sense of like, you love girl. [00:57:43] Speaker A: Girl. [00:57:43] Speaker B: Well behaved. I mean. Yeah. And like, she will be my best friend. Yeah. Like so. Like, I. Yeah, but I don't know. [00:57:51] Speaker A: I mean, I love all your kids the same. I mean, there's no way you don't. But I just can't imagine fathom that feeling of. [00:57:58] Speaker B: But you don't know it until you do it. Like, you will not know it. You will. I could talk to you till the cows. [00:58:03] Speaker A: I was one of five kids. Asked my husband. I was like, we're having five kids and that's it. [00:58:06] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:06] Speaker A: Like, I don't care what you say. [00:58:07] Speaker B: Here we are. [00:58:08] Speaker A: But I, like, he always like. I mean, I'm not being biased, but he really is the best baby ever. [00:58:14] Speaker B: Mom Goggles. We're going to talk about that on the next episode. But right now we're running out of time. [00:58:17] Speaker A: Yeah, we are. So I just am getting emotional because he's just so. He's everything, and he's getting better by the day. [00:58:24] Speaker B: Yeah. And you. [00:58:24] Speaker A: He's gonna take care of me. Like, I get emotional, I think, because. [00:58:28] Speaker B: Like, you're gonna have a daughter who also will take care of you. [00:58:30] Speaker A: I'll smack the shit. I'm just kidding. Now I want a daughter. I really do. But I just know. [00:58:34] Speaker B: With green eyes. [00:58:35] Speaker A: With blue or green. What color your eyes? They're blue, but he says they're green. But no, I. Now cut that out. I'm not gonna smack my daughter. People are gonna think I hit my kid. I'll pull her hair. [00:58:45] Speaker B: We'll talk about it. [00:58:46] Speaker A: No, I could never. No, but I just think, like, I am a boy, mom, in the sense, like, I need that love, you know? [00:58:52] Speaker B: I know that. But also, when they get married, I. [00:58:57] Speaker A: Know it could change no, he'll never leave me. [00:58:58] Speaker B: I. [00:58:59] Speaker A: He's gonna marry. [00:59:00] Speaker B: I see it, I see it, I see it. Not for you. I see it in other relationships that I'm not gonna mention right now. [00:59:06] Speaker A: Definitely gonna have more kids, but it's like, it is so hard to spread love that I have right now. [00:59:10] Speaker B: And I'm also gonna have more kids, but my husband. Are you really? [00:59:13] Speaker A: Those scare me. Crazy man. Okay, well, anyway, I almost shed a tear, but it didn't come out of my eyeballs, thank God, cuz my mascara would have been crazy.

[01:00:07] Speaker A: Smacked his head on the ceiling of the car. [01:00:09] Speaker B: Well, my. My truck is higher. [01:00:11] Speaker A: Screaming on top of his line. And I was like, it's fine. Everything's fine. No big deal. She was like, take your kids, people. She has three. [01:00:17] Speaker B: Felt bad. [01:00:18] Speaker A: No big deal. I do that a lot.

[01:01:22] Speaker A: Want to? [01:01:22] Speaker B: Sure. [01:01:23] Speaker A: Okay. I think I just got a paper cut. [01:01:24] Speaker B: Okay, I'll go first. [01:01:26] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. [01:01:27] Speaker B: A mom confession. Okay. [01:01:28] Speaker A: Better one. [01:01:29] Speaker B: I feel like I have so many, but I'll just think about the one that I was like, Joey. What? My oldest was, like, seven months old, and I took him to get a spray tan with me. I just need. I didn't have a sit or whatever. I just took him with me. [01:01:40] Speaker A: What made you think. Think that was a good idea? [01:01:41] Speaker B: I just thought it would be fine. And, like, he was in the stroller at first, but then, like, he was being annoying. So I took him out of the stroller. I was getting sprayed, and he was just, like, crawling around the studio, which I thought was clean and normal. And then I'm getting out to put him in the car seat, and I noticed the palm of his hands are just, like, orange and his knees are just orange. He just got, like, the most terrible spray tan of his life. [01:02:04] Speaker A: And that stays for months. [01:02:06] Speaker B: Stays for months. So I had a kid that had a spray tan. Like, you know, the palm that you don't want. [01:02:11] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:02:11] Speaker B: He just had that. And there was not a proud mom moment. [01:02:15] Speaker A: But also, like, everyone asking you, like, what the is? [01:02:17] Speaker B: Yeah, I was like, he got into. [01:02:19] Speaker A: You know, my stuff. [01:02:20] Speaker B: My stuff. Easy. [01:02:23] Speaker A: All right, so I'll say mine. [01:02:24] Speaker B: So it's like a dirty little secret. What is it? I'm dying. [01:02:26] Speaker A: I have a better one. [01:02:27] Speaker B: Well, just say one that comes to mind and then we'll think about more. Because I have about a hundred Rocco drinks out of the toilet bowl. [01:02:32] Speaker A: Does he? [01:02:33] Speaker B: Vienna drank bleach one time I shout him out. [01:02:36] Speaker A: That was really scary. [01:02:36] Speaker B: No, that was not funny at all. [01:02:38] Speaker A: Okay, so one time we were at band camp. At band camp one time, Gio was crying. He was probably, like, three months old, and he was screaming, crying. I was trying to get him to sleep like a new mom. I was just trying to rock him to bed like, everything's okay. We're at my shore house. So he was sleeping in a pack and play at the time. And he was screaming, screaming, screaming. I finally got him to sleep. [01:02:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:02:56] Speaker A: Which, like, as, you know, as a mom, is like, goals. Like, just get your baby to bed, put him down. Success successfully, and then we're good to go. So I go to put. Now, the pack and play should have been higher, but I think I was just, like, in the mom stage of, like, he was gonna roll out, but he. Obviously, now I know he would never. So I think the pack and play was low. And he was little, so I. I'm little. And I was reaching down to put him in and being. And if you know me, you know I have, like, shaky body syndrome. So my. Not that I shake, but, like, I just. I just, like, hold things in my hand. And I went to go put him down, and he just rolled right out of the. [01:03:32] Speaker B: So you dropped your kid on his head? [01:03:33] Speaker A: Rolled right out of my arms into the pack and play and start screaming. And, like, the door was closed and, like, my mom came in. I was like, I just can't get him. I just rolled him into the pack and play. So that's my mom confession. But tune in next week. We are going to have some real conversations, real talks. Mom talks, unfiltered mom talks. [01:03:54] Speaker B: Let's do it. Mom guilt. Oh, we're going to talk a lot about mom guilt. [01:03:57] Speaker A: And I have that right now because my son is at my mother. [01:03:59] Speaker B: Mom's same. And I, like, miss my kids. So got to go. Bye. Gotta go. [01:04:02] Speaker A: Bye. [01:04:04] Speaker B: That.
