A Contagious Smile Podcast
Celebrating Milestones and Navigating Parenting: Victoria's Advocacy Achievements, Pet Quirks, and Disciplining with Compassion
As Victoria celebrates her recent guardian ad litem state certification, we prance into a conversation that swerves from the humor in our dogs' odd licking habits to the gravity of advocating for children in the legal system. I'm not far behind with my own announcement as a new counselor for the amputee coalition, proving that personal triumphs come in many forms, including the four-legged variety that enjoys a good slobber. Our camaraderie crackles through the airwaves, as we not only toast to each other's achievements but also tackle the quirky side of pet ownership that often leaves us both baffled and belly-laughing.
The laughter gives way to a more earnest debate on the evolution of discipline and respect from our own childhoods in the 70s and 80s to today's family dynamics. We don't shy away from the thorny aspects of parenting as we share tales of teenage rebellion and the search for a middle ground between authority and understanding. Reflecting on the controversial use of corporal punishment, we dissect societal norms and share how our experiences have shaped our stance on non-violent behavior correction. Join us for a journey that's as enlightening as it is entertaining, packed with personal insights and a refreshing take on guiding the next generation.

What are we talking about? Howdy ho? This is Michael. Another episode of Unstoppable, with Victoria and me and our three goldens in here right now Uno, Stucco and Rusty. And they're kind of hyper right now because I came in here, so hello wife.
Speaker 2:Hello husband.
Speaker 1:What's our topics tonight?
Speaker 2:I was floored that this was your suggestion to do this early, because it's like pulling teeth sometimes to get you to participate in the production of a podcast.
Speaker 1:Look, I barely have education from high school. Okay, you have multiple. Whatever, I don't want to go.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't do all that.
Speaker 1:And you speak very eloquent Eloquence. And yeah, you have all the knowledge up in that noodle of yours. Y'all quit licking each other. Ah, you're gross. Why do y'all dogs lick each other's mouths? Nasty?
Speaker 2:I could ask you, never mind, so how was your day?
Speaker 1:Great.
Speaker 2:I was your day great.
Speaker 1:Because I came home to you, that's very good, and our daughter was your day. Great, because I came home to you.
Speaker 2:That's very good, and our daughter, my husband, does not like for them to lick him, even though back in the day he had plenty of bitches licking on him.
Speaker 1:I'm just saying okay, so let's bring this up how many of you, uh dog owners, like allow or let your dogs lick you?
Speaker 2:I see it all the time In videos and stuff, all the time.
Speaker 1:They eat shit. They eat their own shit.
Speaker 2:This is going to get very hey, hey, leave that alone.
Speaker 1:They eat anything dead in the yard.
Speaker 2:That sounds like a male slut's.
Speaker 1:previous no it could be a female dog, okay, okay, but let's look at a gigolo man.
Speaker 2:Let's look at a man who goes.
Speaker 1:That sounds like a male slut's previous. No, it could be a female dog. Okay, okay, but let's not get a gigolo man. Let's look at a man who goes from woman to woman to woman to woman?
Speaker 2:Let's look at a man who uses the term gigolo. Let's look at a man stop going out in left field and let's look at a man who goes from one bit to another, bit I'm talking about dogs and makes out with them, and then goes after another woman the same night, and then lets all that shit be up in their mouth. And we're going to complain about our dogs, why?
Speaker 1:Because all of them are in heat. So the question is, how many of y'all allow your dogs to lick you? Can I say me for you oh, dog's mouth is the cleanest. Oh, okay, uh-huh right.
Speaker 2:And what about a cheating spouse whose mouth isn't so? Clean when the significant other is putting other things that shouldn't be there and then coming home to their spouse.
Speaker 1:Thank you for listening to Take a Smile Unstoppable with Victoria Michael.
Speaker 2:Hey, I had a pretty good morning, I have to say.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:We can't say where.
Speaker 1:She has led into the reason I wanted to do the podcast.
Speaker 2:You can't say where.
Speaker 1:Because we're always on the same page.
Speaker 2:Except for the topic of putting stuff in your mouth.
Speaker 1:So last time my wife I came home and my wife had received another doctorate.
Speaker 2:Whatever, what are you talking?
Speaker 1:about my yeehaw. Whatever, my yeehaw was not up to expectations, so now that she has received state certification in guardian, ad litem, ad, litem, ad, um, yeah, so I'm saying a big woohoo for my wife, yeehaw. Yay, hurrah shazah, whatever.
Speaker 2:congratulations, victoria on getting state certified I'm so excited because I get to work with these amazing kids who have been pulled from their homes and basically be the eyes and ears for our judges to get off my stucco butt. Oh, that's, uno, go ahead. So, uh, I get to be the eyes and ears for the judges to figure out what kind of care plan is needed and the services that these kiddos need and how to make their life better, and so the only thing left is really get off of me. This is his dog. He's talking to us. So the only thing left is that I have to go and get sworn in as an officer of the court by the judges, and so that should be no later than next week, which I'm very excited about.
Speaker 1:Yes, we are, because now we know that, uh, these kids will have a fierce shark and the kiddie pool fighting for them, and that's just what some of them need to give them a second, third, fourth chance.
Speaker 2:You know, sometimes they don't ask for the situation they're in no, and somebody's got to stand up and and advocate for these kids and really be there. Just snorted, you did snort, instead of just passing the buck. Some of these kids go through caseworker after caseworker, through defects, and then they, if they get a guardian item which isn't always then you know some of these kids just get, you know, they fall through the cracks and it's heart-wrenching because it really is sad.
Speaker 1:It's not these kids fault at all so y'all uh be sure to congratulate vict Victoria.
Speaker 2:However, you can get a hold of her and we totally forgot about this whole thing.
Speaker 1:He's looking Look at my old main glasses. You're a volunteer, certified peer visitor.
Speaker 2:Counselor, I'm now a certified counselor For the amputee coalition.
Speaker 1:Of course you are.
Speaker 2:As well. So I can counsel um amputees, of course you can. Hey, I just got my my identification card in the mail and I was pretty excited all right y'all, let's give her a hand you're an asshole. You don't have to worry about any extra handouts. Later I'll tell you that. Oh, no, no, nothing on that one, no, yeah.
Speaker 1:I see, I see. So what's on? The horizon you have. You've written some new books. I have a lot of activity books for kids.
Speaker 2:I've even done one for foster children. That's awesome, and now we're doing classes, online classes, things of that nature from how to just let your social media footprint soar to gaining followers. I was looking at our Instagram and I don't know if you follow it as closely, but in the last like 24 hours, our Instagram has gained like another 18,000 followers and like since I last saw you, and I want to do a huge shout out to Lisa Leslie, who sent a message which was so nice, nice. She is like an inspiration to all women because you know, she's a multi-time gold winning medalist for the olympics, representing oh, that's the woman I heard and then, um, she's like total badass basketball, nba and all the dogs just went kaplow and took all of my husband's hoarding.
Speaker 2:Can't contain his organizational pile of crap in the corner of the office. Down with it.
Speaker 1:Those are your legal pads.
Speaker 2:Negatory mi amore. That's not true. That's absolutely not correct.
Speaker 2:so proceed with Lisa Leslie she's an amazing woman and she's an inspiration to women and to girls, especially little girls. We need positive role models for little girls these days, because you know who are they gonna look at? Taylor Swift, don't even get me started on the Swifties, like we don't have enough time for that, but like, really, who out there is a woman that little girls can look up to? Now, I mean they're not, as they don't come around as frequently, as am I boring you because you're yawning or does that? Um, I just woke up from a four hour 10 minute nap.
Speaker 1:I worked today.
Speaker 2:And then you had a four hour nap.
Speaker 1:I barely had 30 minutes.
Speaker 2:Wrong. You want to get faith.
Speaker 1:Okay, it was maybe an hour.
Speaker 2:You want to get faith.
Speaker 1:And a half.
Speaker 2:Do you want me to get our daughter in here?
Speaker 1:But it was more like 10 minutes.
Speaker 2:No, it was four hours. Yes, yes, it was. But the boys need a positive role model too, not just girls. I mean so like, and now I heard today you're going to say what there so like. And now I heard today I you're gonna say what there is a new term called I might say it wrong, so I apologize to anyone out there I might offend fray sexual. It's the newest lgbtq fray sexual. Okay, I think it's right. F-r-a-y sexual. I think I'm.
Speaker 2:I don't want to mispronounce it, but it is when you are attracted and want to have sexual relations with a stranger more than being with someone. You know that's the new term. Like a total stranger. Just that's the. That I noticed and learned that today. That's like a new terminology. I can't keep up with all these terms and I feel bad because I'm like okay, I just learned what like a pansexual is and a and metasexual and there's so many terms to to learn. You know, and now when you go to the doctor or you go to the hospital, they have their pronouns on their cards, on their id cards, so she, her there, or whatever, because they find everybody finds it offensive if you address them incorrectly so this generation will pass on the terminology to their kids, if, if they have kids or foster or surrogate kids, whatever, and then that group will slightly pass it on to their kids and then by the fourth generation it'll start fading out I don't know about all that, wow.
Speaker 2:I mean, I think that kids today not 50 years in this, not all kids by any, but a good number of kids these days feel entitled and they feel like they don't owe certain things, like things should just be given to them and handed to them.
Speaker 1:Oh no, you owe me to clean your room, to do the dishes, to do laundry.
Speaker 2:Right, but I'm saying I mean that's the least she can do for your parents right.
Speaker 2:But then you have kids that are like oh, I know I might have really royally screwed up and done something just for get fully bad and I'm gonna like stop talking to you or stop being around you or ignore you or whatever the case may be, but in order to get me back, I want x, y and z, like that. That is not okay. Like I was helping a family and I was just reading about them and there was a family and the mom had a son and the stepdad was trying to get him to go play whatever softball, baseball, whatever and he bought him a glove and it was the wrong glove, like it was the. He had asked him to go with him to buy a glove and the kid was like no. So he picked up a glove this is a teenage boy and he picked up the glove. Um, the dad, the stepdad, brought the glove home and said hey, why don't we go out in the backyard and throw? And he was like why I can do it on my video games, you know, leave me alone, whatever.
Speaker 2:So he stopped speaking to him altogether and was like you annoyed me because you went out and got the wrong glove, and he's like I tried to take you to show me the right glove to get. He's like you don't even know how to play. So it's an insult. Like if I had spoken to my grandparents like that, I would have been knocked into my 50s. Like it's mind-blowing that. And kids today just not all, but a lot of them have no reserve or filter when it comes to how they speak to elders. They just feel like they can say whatever they want and play the oh you're offending me card, so stop. And that is not okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you already know, I grew up in the 80s. No, is not okay. Yeah, you already know, I grew up in the 80s.
Speaker 2:No, you didn't. You grew up in the 70s.
Speaker 1:Half of 70s, 80s, but I got my ass whooped by a belt. I had to go pick out my own switch, my own instrument of torture. You probably picked out the thinnest little tiny, twiggy thing. No, you get the thicker ones. Why the aerodynamics on the thin ones? Oh, I get chills. I get goosebumps right now thinking about that stinging.
Speaker 2:How many times do you think you got whacked?
Speaker 1:Whacked, I got whooped. I didn't get whacked, I got whooped. How many times did you get whooped? Those of y'all out there laughing at me, I'm laughing.
Speaker 2:I never got hit Never. I didn't say hit. I didn't get spanked, popped slapped, no, none of it.
Speaker 1:Really, really, y'all should see her face.
Speaker 2:I think I did more than made up for later in life, but she did me seriously, like I lived, like I didn't want to ever disappoint my grandparents, ever, ever, ever. And I remember the first time I said damn in front of you know I was like oh my god, I'm so sorry, but I never got popped. Even my bios never popped or spanked, or they just ignored you, which to me is worse.
Speaker 1:Well, you know, we don't advocate for beating the hell out of kids and we don't advocate for spanking.
Speaker 2:I don't agree with spanking.
Speaker 1:But I believe in whooping. I don't, and you know it didn't hurt me too bad.
Speaker 2:Well.
Speaker 2:I mean literally, but here's my question we're going to go ahead and start court. Here's my question. So there are schools where kids get whacked or whooped by a teacher. Now how is that okay when a teacher can go up and discipline a child, and it's justified. But if a parent whooped a child and they came to school, defects was called and an investigation was opened. So how is it okay that a stranger, basically, who is teaching or supposedly teaching our kids, can do it, but a parent cannot? That is a double standard. Because I'll tell you what, if any of our kids ever got whacked by a teacher, holy shit. That's all I got to say.
Speaker 1:Okay, so maybe it's the paper trail involved. Okay, the kid does something he's not supposed to, against the rules. It's called a principal's office. It's now documented by a teacher. Now the principal has verified it and disciplinary action is written down on paper.
Speaker 2:uh, insult, suspension, or you know detention relict okay would you allow any of our children to get licked by someone at school? Let's rephrase that all right, okay, would you allow any of our children to get paddled by a teacher?
Speaker 2:yes I would. You would. Yes, you know what I would do. I'd go in there, I'd tell the teacher, or I'd tell the student that got whooped by it to hold that that board. I'm gonna say let me show you how I got my national title hold that board. I'll show how I break it. And I would break that board and put it on the desk and say do it again.
Speaker 2:No teacher has a right to go and put hands on a kid, just like a person doesn't have a right to put their hands in an unwarranted manner on another person. There are ways to discipline without violence. I'm sorry, but faith has never been popped. She's never been spanked, whooped, whipped, whatever you want to call it. And everybody talks about how resilient, sweet, amazing this kid is. You don't have to be whooped, there's a way around it. Like instead, when she did wrong because she's a normal human kid and they all do wrong at some point in time I would always say to her you know what? I don't like what you did. I love you with every beat of my heart. I don't like what you did, so let's try to find a way to correct it, but I still love you.
Speaker 2:And this was your choice. Your action was your choice, so let's learn from it. That's why a pencil has an eraser. Or you chose not to do your homework, so now you're choosing to have that phone turned off at a certain time. That was a choice you made. I'm not taking the phone away from you. You are choosing to not have your phone because you chose not to complete your schoolwork. Because you chose not to complete your schoolwork, and that is what makes a huge difference. It's about respect. How do you expect our kids to respect us if we don't respect them? And there is a million different ways.
Speaker 2:Right, but first Without laying hands thank you, rusty without laying hands on them in a disciplinary action.
Speaker 1:You know, it's like one of the only things we disagree on.
Speaker 2:Well, I'll blame your mom on that.
Speaker 1:Because there are kids out there that, 100% in my opinion, they need to be whooped.
Speaker 2:There's other ways to discipline them without having to whoop them, right, without having to whoop them. I understand that.
Speaker 1:But there's also ways to discipline them by whooping them. I understand that, but there's also ways to discipline and Bible-proof?
Speaker 2:No, absolutely don't agree. Because everybody today says, oh, you beat your wife. Well, guess what? You must have gotten beat as a child, so it's okay that you're beating your wife because you had a bad childhood, so it's okay, and they justify it as such. No, it's not. I have the right to have a freaking mental breakdown and I never have. That's just not acceptable.
Speaker 2:Like today, the laziness of everybody, okay, instead of trying to get to the root of the problem and figure it out and make a correction and learn from it, just paddle. Paddle doesn't correct it, it's just, you know, a quick fix. It's like a Band-Aid that's not really going to go and make the situation close up. So now today we have cars that park themselves, cars that drive themselves. You know these are things that make it okay to be absolutely lazy and we wonder why kids feel like they are so just earned, the right for everything. And there's a way around it without hitting your kid. I was never paddled. You sit there and say, okay, that explains it. I've never been incarcerated, never been detained, I mean.
Speaker 1:Why have you never been incarcerated?
Speaker 2:Why have I never been incarcerated? I've never did anything illegal.
Speaker 1:Well, is that the same reason? You've never been paddled? No, but I'm just saying you didn't break the rules in school.
Speaker 2:No, I did. You didn't make discipline, but I, you know, of course, I skipped school once.
Speaker 1:Skipping school is not disciplinary.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying, but that's true. I am saying that not every kid has to go through like some physical altercation. No kid should have to go and get it. And why do you think they're bad? Because they want attention somewhere, because they're getting negative attention at home and so they need an outcry. They need a safe place, and their safe place should be at home. And if they aren't having a safe home, that's where I get to start coming in and find them one.
Speaker 1:That's right, because you're now a gal.
Speaker 2:I'm a gal and I'll tell you what I like. Wait till you find some guy who I find is beating up on a kid, and then that's going to be a problem. Seriously, there is no reason I'm mad at you Go away, uno. Seriously, there is no reason I'm mad at you go away. Oh no, there is no reason at all. For some kid. Okay, let me ask you this karma what age do you think is too old to paddle a kid?
Speaker 1:um too old. Probably you're getting about 14, 15. They should have learned life's lessons up till then.
Speaker 2:So you have kids that are sexually active in elementary school now and you think that and these kids are endowed and you know they're like when I was in elementary school we didn't look like we had already started puberty and now these fifth graders look like they're high schoolers and you like to think that somebody can walk up and just spank them for any reason is absolutely not OK.
Speaker 1:They need to learn how school I'm talking in general- you don't just want to spank a child for no reason some people do well, no, that's, that's child abuse okay okay, just like when I was in law enforcement, if I caught you breaking the law, you got whooped, you went to jail.
Speaker 2:That was but you didn't okay, but you didn't get physically abused. Sometimes I had to get physical with them.
Speaker 1:Seriously, seriously. I had to get in fights, whether it was passive resistance, aggressive resistance.
Speaker 2:But when you're talking about an adolescent individual who is not even developed completely in every way, whether it be neurological, psychological to say it's okay, oh, because you didn't clean your room that I'm gonna pop you on your butt or whatever. Do you think that's really gonna make a difference? Do you think they're gonna clean the room the next day? They're gonna be like, okay, it's gonna sting for a minute, let's go. No, go to bed early, take away something. Let them earn it back. There's so many other ways to go about this besides just whack and be done like. I'll argue this all day long there. There is no justification to me that would make it okay to hit a kid.
Speaker 1:There you go again, hitting a kid.
Speaker 2:Popping, spanking, paddling. When your hand or something within your hand makes physical contact with a child, that's hitting. Whether it's hitting with a twig, a paddle, a belt, whatever, it's just the adjective used to describe it. The point is that it's making physical contact with the child, which is inexcusable okay, so I can see that we will not progress in this subject because I'm right. No, yes, and I say you were right.
Speaker 1:You don have to. You're right in your own opinion.
Speaker 2:If somebody God forbid.
Speaker 1:Oh Lord, here we go.
Speaker 2:Hit faith. What are you going to do?
Speaker 1:There's a hole.
Speaker 2:So that makes you a hypocrite I don't care no. What? No, that's what. That's what. What's good for the?
Speaker 1:goose is good for the gander, so that's what I reserve the right. No, not in my courtroom.
Speaker 2:That's why, say it, my wife wins. That's why I'm the wild card Overruled. That is why I am the wild card, I am the expert.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this is why y'all love her.
Speaker 2:Because I will battle for somebody that needs to have someone stand up in their corner and I will not back down. But seriously, if somebody hit any of our kids, hell, have no fury than a redhead. I mean, it's not like I leave fingerprints. Why don't you have a judge?
Speaker 1:on. I've had a judge. Same questions. I mean, it's not like I leave fingerprints. Why don't you have a judge on?
Speaker 2:I've had a judge, same questions I have.
Speaker 1:Your Honor, in your opinion, do you believe that these kids should have been whooped?
Speaker 2:I've had this conversation already With whom Judge Christopher Callahan.
Speaker 1:Okay, on air.
Speaker 2:Yeah, go way back and check it out. You've got over 200 podcasts under your belt. Well, that's how many I've done and produced, not how many I've been on. So, chris told you from the very beginning I've known him forever and a day and he was like a brother to me. Node see what I'm getting that redneck way about me, I guess for that n-o-d-e-d w-e-b-s-t-e-r y'all, she's so damn cute yes, what you say about fat kids and babies am I discriminating against skinny people?
Speaker 2:no, you told me when we were dating that if I gained weight, here we go, you would break up with me. And did I? I didn't gain any weight. I was obsessed. You dealt me Because you lied to me for four and a half years about your marital status. It didn't help it. I was married. You never told me that.
Speaker 1:Well, I did.
Speaker 2:The day I broke up with you and now look where we are. The day I broke up with you and now look where we are. The day I broke up with you, you don't care why is it a little warm in here?
Speaker 2:no, my boo man chew goatee but in all fairness I will defend you is that you have literally turned yourself into a 180 in comparison. Like you kept all the amazing great things about the man I fell in love with back then, but then the stuff that was just not as great as others you've gotten rid of and become such a like an asset to me and to faith and y'all heard her.
Speaker 1:She said I've become an ass.
Speaker 2:No, you've always been an ass but like, you've always been my rock and my best friend and my soulmate, my partner. Except you just went, you know, around the corner of you know super stupid for a minute with this whole like paddle thing. Because I'm telling you, if somebody came up and said I whacked faith, you would be like fighting to get out the door before me and I'd already be gone. So you can and you should see his face right now because he's just saying I know, dear, you're right, I know, I know. So what's next? A doctor can hit a kid because a teacher can get.
Speaker 2:A doctor can they always caused that pain so and you don't think sitting in a teacher in a classroom with some boring ass teacher who doesn't know her ass from her elbow isn't painful?
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Because you skip so much. That's why, before I went to sleep, not you, yes, you slept in class.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:You never slept in any of my classes.
Speaker 1:Teacher told me to bring a pillow.
Speaker 2:You had your own chair in the principal's office. You never slept in any of my classes. I taught what are you humming? What is humming?
Speaker 1:Okay, I didn't sleep in your class, you didn't Y'all. That does not mean that she's old.
Speaker 2:No, I taught him in-service training for law enforcement and he never slept in any of my classes Ever. It's a good thing you're hot, that's all I'm going to say. So have you changed your mind and willing to admit now that you were incorrect in the statement of?
Speaker 1:No, I still believe in whooping.
Speaker 2:No, well, it's amazing, yet still, faith has never been whooping. No.
Speaker 1:Well, it's amazing, yet still, Faith has never been whooped, so as a canine officer we train the dogs with correction.
Speaker 2:Sometimes that correction Are you comparing a dog to a child.
Speaker 1:I'm comparing the training.
Speaker 2:This is going to be really good. Go ahead, no.
Speaker 1:That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Well, why don't you finish your statement? Because you're kind of leaving it half answered by what you said.
Speaker 1:Some kids need to be trained.
Speaker 2:Without violence.
Speaker 1:Without violence.
Speaker 2:So no, whooping.
Speaker 1:And if no violence Without violence.
Speaker 2:You just said without without violence. Came out of your mouth without violence maybe they need their little butt whooped.
Speaker 1:No, when they're young, excuse me.
Speaker 2:No, keep them from becoming worse so then, how do you justify it when I've had so many people come to me and say well, he got spanked when he was little, he got beat when he was little from his parents. So that's why he beats me and I can't leave my husband because I, you know, there's a difference.
Speaker 1:What's the difference?
Speaker 2:And as a, as a boy or a girl growing up, they know that difference when they haven't even developed the. The, the frontal lobe of their brain, isn't even developed until they're in their 20s. So they're gonna know back then. When the, the frontal lobe isn't even developed yet, they're gonna know back then. Oh, I might be eight, but it's okay that I didn't eat my pee, so let me pull my pants down and let daddy go get a switch, okay that sounded perverted.
Speaker 1:but we're not dealing with the frontal lobe, we're dealing with the buttocks. Okay, that's insane. There's a lot of buttocks and meat back there.
Speaker 2:But yet faith has never been spanked.
Speaker 1:How many kids have died from my butt whooping on the butt?
Speaker 2:I'm sure we can find some.
Speaker 1:On the butt.
Speaker 2:It doesn't justify it.
Speaker 1:How many comments do you think we get about this?
