Speaker 1:You can reach out to us by our email and we'll get back to you. If you want to be on the show, please write us a brief description of why you think you would be a good fit for our show. Y'all know we focus around domestic violence and that encompasses a lot of stuff. Warning signs, narcissism, sex trafficking, escape plans, just a whole gamut of things that my wife is is very what. Why are you looking at me like that?
Speaker 1:because I'm hurting, but go ahead okay, oh well, why is she hurting? So let's, let's bring that up.
Speaker 2:Oh, I've just had a massive surgery.
Speaker 1:We also work with special needs things we do work with special needs. Okay, we'll get into that. Okay, so my wife just underwent undergone. Here we go more poop revelations. Hey, they know I'm not edumacated, go ahead. That really put a hurt in her for the past several days now. Major surgery and I won't go into detail, but she's very sore enough that I had to take off work. So, speaking of that, we had some folks come out today that were involved in special needs and you know we want to thank y'all for coming out and supporting Contagious Smile and everything y'all do.
Speaker 1:So my wife is hurting a lot and, yeah, I'm doing my best to try to take care of her and her little red-headed munchkin, who's supposed to be washing the dog right now, but I bet she's not. Yes, I said washing. There is an R in wash Warsh.
Speaker 2:Warsh Warshing. I'm probably the only person I've ever known who going into pre-op, or well, actually not pre-op, but we're going in the day of surgery. We have to get there quite early and we get there and what do I do really?
Speaker 1:is that a colonoscopy joke?
Speaker 2:it is if I get there and literally I just made m&m chocolate cookies for the staff of people that would be in the room with me. So what do they do?
Speaker 1:I'm going to make some.
Speaker 2:They open up the container and eat them in front of me and I'm like, I'm glad.
Speaker 1:I have a sense of humor because I don't like.
Speaker 2:M&M's, but that's you know. But I love my surgeon. She is phenomenal. Even what she said to Faith before I went back was hilarious. Faith, of course, I gotta tell you, pulled off this prank on Michael yet again. I'm laying there in this hospital stretcher, gorgeous gown. Oh yeah, With an IV that took a lot of fishing to get in for. And then they tell me, oh, we're gonna put nerve blocks in and all this, and I'm like no you're not.
Speaker 2:So my anesthesiologist comes in. He is of asian descent, he's obviously a male and I knew where this was going. So I had asked if he would come back by just to put faith's mind at ease, because this was a rather big surgery and so, uh, they had multiple surgery and so they had multiple layers, if you will, multiple things to be done with it. So he, of course, said yes, I was his only case for the whole day he was going to be right beside me. So once I'm situated and all that in comes Michael and Faith, and we asked for I asked him to come back in and Faith, as you know, the biggest prankster and I love it she comes in and the guy walks up and he says hey how are you doing?
Speaker 1:I'm going to be right there with your mom.
Speaker 2:I'll be right on top of her the whole time. So Michael is like jagged eyes looking at this guy.
Speaker 1:I said something to him.
Speaker 2:Then Faith is like Mommy's going to be basically naked on that table in there with him and he goes. No, I've got her, he goes, I'll hold her hand every step of the way, I'll be right there with her, I'll be the one that she's looking at until she goes under and I do not prefer to go under anesthetic ever. You're not doing that right now, you're not. So I said to Faith, I said faith. I said well, you know he's gonna be right there. And she's like oh, you're really gonna have your hand on mom and you're gonna be right there on top and he's just michael's spitting fire, which is hilarious.
Speaker 2:And when we get back to the operating room, I don't do any versed or anything prior to going back and I get back there and it's all women, except for this anesthesiologist and my surgeon, what leans over and tells him you know, you just got played right, because my girl, who I love and adore, faith just basically, you know, showed you off to her husband, saying that your eye candy and that you're going to be in there holding his wife's hand, and she was like you got played and that's girl power. I thought that was just amazing. That was awesome. But after many, many hours and then going back in, however long it was, and then going into recovery. They kept me on oxygen because I had some whatever issue, apparently. And then I've never heard of this and I have a pretty extensive medical background. I would say I'm pretty pretty extensively trained medically.
Speaker 2:Then I had IVs and Michael will tell you he saw this in both of my feet right at the ankle bone and I was like I'm sorry, I'm sorry what what, what, what is that?
Speaker 2:and in both feet? Yeah, not pleasant. So that didn't go over very well with me because I didn't know it. They did it when I was asleep. But for any of y'all who know me, I'd work 20 hours a day, safe to say, and then, like my amputation. I came home, I worked that night like I just, yeah, this one laid me on my ass. I was pretty, damn surprised because I didn't even try to work the night. We got home the next day.
Speaker 2:Um, didn't do much anything I tried about an hour and a half and I couldn't handle it and so I had to stop. And then yesterday no, then today I've worked in about an hour and it's like I'm not the person who can just sit around and watch tv. I can't just lounge around in bed. I'm not that person, and this is just like kicking my butt and I have all these things like I love to be clean.
Speaker 1:I want clean hair.
Speaker 2:I always want to smell nice and they're like you can't take a shower for 48 hours, you can't get any of your numerous incisions wet and you're like you know what. I'm really not very happy about all of this, and some of the incisions are a little more painful than others. But it's behind us now, thank god, and it's like no longer having to worry about, which is great. So now we have some awesome stuff coming up and then my husband gets to oh, how could I forget this? So my husband comes up with a backpack with stuff for them I've already packed a bag for them with stuff in it because I will not stay overnight and he has his headphones. Well, on the headphones are the stickers that Faith got that says for rectal use only, and the nurses and doctors thought this was hysterical. So they all asked to take pictures of these items with these stickers on it and they were going to put them out there because they thought this was a riot.
Speaker 2:This was just hilarious.
Speaker 1:Well, it was freaking hilarious.
Speaker 2:It was hilarious, but I'm really proud of my husband. This is the first time he didn't sleep the whole surgery.
Speaker 1:That's right. So, guys, if your woman, your wife, your significant other has a surgery, y'all take off work and take care of that woman. Okay, I've tried. Okay, y'all know I'm pretty lazy I take my old man naps. It may take one or two or three or four A day.
Speaker 1:My 10-minute naps may last Four or five hours, okay, regardless, I've tried to be here for my wife sitting on the couch with her watching TV, holding her nub. I get her whatever drink she wants. I try to help her up and down the steps because I don't want her to fall and anything bust and come open. We got her the back pillow set up where she's comfy. Just little things. Where she's comfy, just little things. You know y'all take care of your wives, your significant other, because they take care of us always.
Speaker 2:What about if it's a different gender?
Speaker 1:I just said significant other.
Speaker 2:Gender.
Speaker 1:Well, if it's another gender?
Speaker 2:See you said gender.
Speaker 1:Then they can take care of them. You said gender them they those.
Speaker 2:You said, gender you did.
Speaker 1:I'm just putting a shout out there to the guys the fellas. Thank you.
Speaker 2:What do you think about now? Biden has said he will not run for the next election.
Speaker 1:I don't do politics.
Speaker 2:I know, but now they're trying to endorse Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1:Well, she'll fail utterly, utterly. That's a cow joke Utterly.
Speaker 2:Are you serious right now, seriously Right? That doesn't seem to begin Really. See what I can put up with, and I don't take payments, so I can't have that as an excuse for this.
Speaker 1:No, you got a whole script of opioids. I won't take them, and you won't even take the first one.
Speaker 2:No. And my husband keeps saying do you want a pill? Do you want a pill? Do you want a pill, do you want a pill? I'm like you are a pill, I don't want one.
Speaker 2:I and I prefer to do as much surgery if I ever have to without anesthetic. You know they can twilight or no one or whatever, because I just can't stand that feel. But this anesthesiologist freaking off the chart. My husband's going to look at me and think it's because I said he was Asian, but he was phenomenal at putting me to sleep so gently and we had nice music playing. They had. They had like love song music playing in the room. And then they did. They had Whitney Houston's greatest hits on. When I came in the room and they asked him I want to switch it or leave that where it was, and I said you can leave this. And he was so gentle and putting me under anesthetic that I wouldn't care who did it. The point is that they did. Why would you keep me making eyes? No one had ever questioned my loyalty to you. Nor would they ever, by the way.
Speaker 1:I don't know that first doctor that Faith showed us she wasn't even a real doctor, she found him on Google, that muscle-bound freak.
Speaker 2:That's kind of what anesthesia elders look like.
Speaker 1:That hunk of hunk of meat.
Speaker 2:Okay, and you don't eye check out women. How dare you that's not a denial how dare you?
Speaker 1:impugn me honor.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So that's a yes you do. No, yes, you do.
Speaker 1:When have I Jennifer Aniston? Well, we only kissed that one time. It was in a dream, yes, but it was a good dream. Shakira, shakira, okay, you know what? What about the politics? Let's talk about politics.
Speaker 2:Now you want to go to politics. Seriously, I have never and my husband knows that I've never been the person to cheat.
Speaker 1:Okay, James Spader, I didn't even Okay.
Speaker 2:I had a dream with you. Oh, looky there. In your dream you made out with Jennifer Aniston. In my dream I didn't even go into the apartment, I left, turned around and left. I didn't even go in.
Speaker 1:Where's Amir at Amir?
Speaker 2:are you?
Speaker 1:listening Aram.
Speaker 2:Yes, a wrong, yes, a wrong. Amir, I would not have even no, because you're my soulmate, you're the lord of my life and I will not jeopardize anything I have with you, even for raymond freaking right to has to be freaking his disposition and demeanor of how he protects those he loves.
Speaker 2:It's something this country needs more of, because we don't have enough of it. We need his character to come in the office in front of us, because he only goes after the people who deserve it and the bad people, and he protects those he cares for.
Speaker 1:To be like the Terminator.
Speaker 2:I'll be back, right, I'm just saying so. So no, I have never had dreams of making out with James Spears, unlike you, jennifer Aniston. So I want to hear it. I don't even want to hear it at all you gotta admit she's cute she's not like I think.
Speaker 2:Excuse me, I still like cock a lot and Steve's like crazy stupid. I think one of the most beautiful women alive today is Catherine Zeta-Jones. Really, yes, interesting. All men know her from that Sean Connery movie where she's going under the rope. Everybody knows that scene. I'll show it to you later, don't remember it. I think she's going under the rope. Everybody knows that scene. I'll show it to you later, don't remember it. I think she's absolutely stunning. The awkward dress one no, they were stealing art. Oh, and here's the thing this woman goes into Hollywood.
Speaker 2:She was in some kind of accident and needed a tracheostomy, they told her she needed to cosmetically get that scar fixed and she said, no, it's part of the save me, and so she kept it and you can see it in a lot of the videos. You can see right there in her throat, and to me that makes her even more beautiful. I think she's absolutely stunning. Her husband is Michael Douglas. He's like 30 years her senior and I just think she's eloquent and beautiful and like, yeah, everybody's all like, oh, jennifer Aniston. I mean she's Jennifer Aniston, but I don't think she's like, I don't think she's Catherine Zeta-Jones, like a lot of people used to go stir crazy over Angelina Jolie oh yeah to me.
Speaker 2:I mean, she's really thin, like super, super skinny thin, and you know, she's shown herself to be an amazing mom, I gotta give her that credit. I mean that she does. But you know a lot of females think like Brad Pitt.
Speaker 2:I have never once thought Brad Pitt was even remotely cute. Ben Affleck Nope, not Affleck. I can't see it. I can't even see why people think he's. But like the women pick these men that I just don't see and see, I used to think like sean connery, shaking all stead. That is someone you should try to be. You know, like he was just elegant james spader. It's the disposition and demeanor that makes a person you can have the most attractive person physically, but when they open their mouth and they talk nasty, they get ugly. And then you have someone who's cute and they treat you so well and they have your best outlook in their realm, if you will. And then they become hot, so that's it and looks fade. So then what? Are you going? To be so shallow that you get rid of someone when something happens to their looks In?
Speaker 1:neither. Neither one of those scenarios was I depicted.
Speaker 2:You didn't depict me with Jennifer Aniston and Shakira.
Speaker 1:You pointed them, women out.
Speaker 2:You always point them, women out.
Speaker 1:Negative your daughter does. Oh, now she's my daughter.
Speaker 2:Yes, Okay, your daughter.
Speaker 1:Now I haven. Now she's my daughter. Yes, okay, your daughter.
Speaker 2:Now I have it recorded that she's online.
Speaker 1:I'm scrolling through TikTok. She looks over and says meow, okay, what she said, dad, go back and look at that. You're not getting me in trouble. How dare you? She does it with a lot of stupor. Yes, yes, that's your daughter. Why are you climbing up Now?
Speaker 2:she's all mine again yes. Good, I got that recorded.
Speaker 1:So, speaking of moms, oh, I can't wait for this one.
Speaker 2:It's going where I think it is.
Speaker 1:It's not.
Speaker 2:That sucks.
Speaker 1:We don't think a lot, do we?
Speaker 2:We're always on the same page.
Speaker 1:Speaking of moms. Dr Victoria Curie is also a legal aid and she provides. I'm not a legal aide, I'm a paralegal, paralegal, same thing.
Speaker 2:That's like saying you're a security guard instead of a detective.
Speaker 1:She provides all your wheels, your what. Wheels Like a car wheel, however you want to spelt it.
Speaker 2:Spelt it.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:No, we do not let him home school Faith.
Speaker 1:Just see how Y'all see why she does all the technical stuff, All your power of attorney, medical power of attorney. She has Guardian malignum on her belt, but she currently does IEPs for the kids. We have a plethora of books that she has written. You can find them on our website and on Amazon, so be sure to type in our name, victoria Curie, or just go to our website. Here's a question for you.
Speaker 2:This is seriously something that needs to be discussed, because this is irritating, what I'm just kidding. So here's the thing. People not all, but a good majority are very shallow, and let's say you found your perfect mate, you found your partner and, god forbid, they get in an accident, they get burned, they lose a limb.
Speaker 1:Whatever the case may be, a lot of people will leave at that point, because that's not who they married us after they got a relationship with. That's not who they want to be. Is this tied into their wills?
Speaker 2:no, it could be so what I'm saying is is that some people are so like the divorce rate and special needs NICU babies is through the roof because and I'm only telling facts that it's always, for the majority, the dad who leaves. And what if your mom and dad had left you when you were a baby in the NICU? God forbid. How can people be so shallow as to be like, hey, you know, like if you, my husband, lost an arm or whatever the case would?
Speaker 2:be he became incapacitated and anything he ever could or did or whatever, I wouldn't leave him because he's still inside. That is my heart, my soulmate, my love and my life.
Speaker 1:But I don't understand how some people be like and then they just want to be like just because you're less than normal or the standard.
Speaker 2:But you know what? Who wants to be average, who wants to be standard? Nobody wants to be average or standard, Nope. So I mean it doesn't matter to me. I mean, God forbid something happened. I'm not leaving you because you cut your hand off, lost a finger.
Speaker 1:whatever the case may be, If you were burned, I would take care of you.
Speaker 2:That's just how it is and how it should be, and today, people are like oh, I don't like that, but I'm leaving. It's just so stupid. Everybody is more in love with their electronics than they are with each other. They really are. They don't conversate at a table, they don't.
Speaker 1:you know, you have people right there in front of you who are supposed to be your inner circle, and instead you're texting everybody else but not communicating with those right in front of you. Yes, so next time y'all are in a restaurant, look up from the table and look around. Look around at everybody and see how many folks are buried in their phone?
Speaker 2:And not just kids.
Speaker 1:No, it's adults and they give the example.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:We purposely do not use our phones at the table or at restaurants. We look each other in the eye, we talk, we tell stories, we joke around, play pranks Right. We have food fights, you know, whatever the case may be. But you know that's our time, you know, let's unplug for a few minutes and socialize with your family, your loved ones right the light of my life can't wait to be here. You're hilarious, I think so I think so.
Speaker 2:But now another thing that parents are really turned away from. That's so mean that you're doing that in front of me. Let me just tell everybody. You know, when faith went into the hospital in december, I had not had a soda in probably 15, 16, whatever years. I just had been soda free. Hospitals do not provide you with accommodations such as like unsweet tea or whatever after hours and you're up all night, whatever. So I had to. Just I can't do saccharine because I have bad headaches. So I did coke hey, like coca-cola, let me just specify that like coke classic. You know the red, white can and not any thrums. But all of a sudden now I'm drinking that little red can, you know, a few times a day. And then I got addicted to the soda and I told my husband that after this surgery that I was not going to do it anymore, I was going to go back to not having sodas and I have been drinking so much water I feel like my brain is swimming and I've been having unsweet tea.
Speaker 1:But he knows, like earlier tonight I was oh, I kind of want a coke. You know you do go through withdrawals.
Speaker 2:I was like, oh, kind of that coca-cola is looking pretty good. And he's like, nope, you're not getting it, you're not getting it. And then he comes up here to podcast with me with an ice cold one right in front of me and he's drinking it in front of me. That's just rude meaning and not okay that's me helping you helping me. How's it helping?
Speaker 1:me, are you drinking it exactly?
Speaker 2:that doesn't even make sense in the redneck world.
Speaker 1:Did everybody just agree? No, they didn't. They did. They said that's mean. Did you hear the silence? They said that's mean. No, they didn't.
Speaker 2:Yes, they did.
Speaker 1:No, they would never say that.
Speaker 2:Yes, they would, they absolutely would. That's not okay.
Speaker 1:We'll see on the downloads.
Speaker 2:Fine. Every time you bet me, you lose 100. You lose so badly. Seriously, life is too short not to love every single day and not to be happy every single day and forget everything outside of those four walls. That makes your house a home. And if it's not a home, make it one, because if life is just too short, you have no idea. Michael and I were talking about that the other night, like that thursday night. We were just sitting around having dinner, everything was fine. You would have never known that within mere hours we're going to be told. Well, we can make her comfortable until she passes. Like you have no idea. So you shouldn't take those moments for granted and you should do things to make sure you're taken care of.
Speaker 1:Excuse me, and now I joke around with that little girl of ours.
Speaker 2:Oh, now she's ours again, wow.
Speaker 1:That when she was on life support the ventilator and we just were begging to hear her voice, I told her that I would never tell her to shut up again. Now I joke around and I say shut up, and she dad, you said you would never tell me.
Speaker 2:And then she tells him to sew his mouth shut.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And he also made the deal that if she pulled through this, that he would watch whatever movie she wants on their movie nights for a year and never complain.
Speaker 1:Okay, dads, let me advise you on this. This was great. Before you jump off this 850-foot bridge, think carefully. You may think of some boring, you know, b-rated movies no no no, no, these millennials, these, what's the generation of this? I don't even know Whatever it is, but they think so much different than us. Okay, To them, a good movie may be a musical. Okay Well.
Speaker 2:Faith loves horror movies she does. But she decided to torture Daddy.
Speaker 1:She's torturing me y'all.
Speaker 2:With the descendants.
Speaker 1:And there's four of them and we get to the last oneall With the descendants. And there's four of them and we get to the last one tonight, sometime tonight, we get to the last one.
Speaker 2:And that's when I get my own quiet time.
Speaker 1:It's a Disney musical and to me they have nothing but rap songs in there and I can't stand rap because I'm a little country. But yeah, y'all be careful of making that proclamation.
Speaker 2:Big word. I'm very impressed.
Speaker 1:What make, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2:So what do you have to say about someone who has the same dream?
Speaker 1:over and, over and over again. I don't know, didn't you have a dream, therapist, come on one time I did. I did. What were their names? Linda Lisa. I'll have to go back. I did. What were their names? Linda Lisa Levine. I don't know, but they could. It was a one about the cosmic energy.
Speaker 2:I got a couple.
Speaker 1:Yeah, if y'all are out there, if y'all are a dream interpreter, reach out to my wife, victoria Curie.
Speaker 2:You might not want to know what the dream's about. What's your? Email victoria at a contagious smilecom victoria at a contagious smilecom but you might not want to know what the dream's about. My husband knows what it's about and it's eerie and it's to the letter the exact same every time. I have it like there's no difference in the dream at all. It's's the exact same.
Speaker 1:That's crazy, and y'all know my wife, she doesn't lie, she has a damn near perfect memory. I don't know if it's photographic, but she just remembers everything Any day, down to the color of socks you wear on a specific day.
Speaker 2:It's not a gift.
Speaker 1:Well, you think it's a curse. I do. Those of us who don't have a great memory don't see it that way. I think it's an absolute curse. Okay, I'm a great shot, okay.
Speaker 2:Please don't make me laugh.
Speaker 1:It hurts Some people are not, it hurts to make me laugh. I take it for granted You're going to laugh at me. They're going to laugh at you, go ahead. So the wife has been having a dream about me and my first wife and me cheating on my current wife with my ex-first wife and still having sex and all that crap.
Speaker 2:I'm going to throw up, which is really going to hurt me.
Speaker 1:And, yeah, she would like to know why she keeps having the same nightmare.
Speaker 2:You're saying it's a nightmare. Well, yeah, but here's the thing, so people can get a little back of it and understand. When I was with my husband for years and years and years, you are such a jerk he's drinking from a can. When I was with my husband for years and years and years, my husband did not disclose to me in any way, shape form or fashion, that he was married okay, wait, wait, let's preface that I was a cop and all cops are whores no, they're not all whores. Here we go again.
Speaker 1:Not all are whores well, I was a bad cop and I had to change my ways.
Speaker 2:Y'all so he hit it so eloquently like I had no idea.
Speaker 1:The first thing I did was I looked for a ring, I looked for a tan line there was.
Speaker 2:He saw me seven days a week and it was at his request. You know he oh yeah, you're going to come see me tonight. Are you going to come see me tonight? I would bring him dinner, clue number one at my request, but that's because you work nights, I work days, and on your days off you spend them.
Speaker 1:Please don't misdemeanor my wife's intelligence. She is super intelligent. With three doctors, I just have to be a professional liar.
Speaker 2:And so he always had me over there with him. We even went and looked at apartments to move in together. And I mean we really, and this whole team, your whole team, only knew me. They didn't know her. And then he comes to me and tells me that he cheated on me with her. I hadn't even been in his apartment, I had been in one of the apartments and I stayed there for like three nights and there was nothing in there feminine. I checked, I did, I checked. I just didn't know. It was prior to, like, her moving in, or you moved in first and she was cross-country, I don't know whatever it was, but yes, and so nobody knew of her. They only knew me.
Speaker 2:And then I find out about her and what is the first thing that I do? I end our relationship, which devastated me to no end. Like I immediately said, I will not be the other woman and you said to me I wanted you in my life in some way. That not at all, and I hate how I had to do this and I was heartbroken for the longest time. And the thing is is that I ended it the minute I learned about her. Now I'm sure she has ill will to me thinking I knew of her but I didn't know about her. And I have this reoccurring dream every once in a while that he went back to her, but in all fairness, he was still in uniform, he was still with the same agency, both of which are no longer true, so those things have changed. So that's not formatted in this dream, but that kind of gives you a little background as to why I had this dream over and over again, because I had no idea about him being with a girl.
Speaker 1:So that was what 23 years ago, mm-hmm. And we've been together, we've been legally married for over three, so why are you still having it? So if anyone can answer that for my wife, come on.
Speaker 2:Just curious, why do you think I keep up?
Speaker 1:I don't rightly know you Insecure Of her. Well, you still have a fear that hey, once a cheater, always a cheater.
Speaker 2:Most people would have that fear.
Speaker 1:They would.
Speaker 2:But, in fairness, I don't go behind you checking it. I don't check your phone, I don't check what you're doing or where you are.
Speaker 1:I give you my phone.
Speaker 2:Right, but I don't want it.
Speaker 1:Oh, in phone, right, but I don't want it. I oh, in fact, I got a book right here behind me with every password thing between us. Yeah, every account on every social media, uh, damn near everything, everything you think of that has to have a password the login and password's written out in their book and my wife and I share that book together.
Speaker 1:We keep it, you know, stashed away, locked up, but, yeah, at any given time, my wife can keep my phone for the entire day and I have no fear. I don't have a burner. Thank you all for asking. I don't have another little black book. No, it's something that I changed in my heart. I decided that I don't want another little black book. No, it's something that I changed in my heart. I decided that I don't want to cheat anymore.
Speaker 2:I don't want to keep.
Speaker 1:I hated the lies, so how could you keep up y'all? Okay, we're not going there yeah, no, I'm serious.
Speaker 2:There's a lot of people who want to know, women, of course, want to know, because they're not going to get it.
Speaker 1:How do you keep up with the lies?
Speaker 2:when you have multiple, what do?
Speaker 1:you keep up with the lies. How do you keep up with when you have multiple? What do you want?
Speaker 2:to call them. What do you want to call y'all? I thought I was your only girlfriend.
Speaker 1:I didn't know there was a girl, so side items, items, items, side pieces, side pieces okay at the time, because obviously you're not as meaningful in someone's life, right?
Speaker 2:Right, I guess.
Speaker 1:But then later on, I fell in love with you. The lies are just. It's crazy because you have to tell, especially if you're married. You have to tell that one, hey, I'm going to work today, today, and you're not really going to work, but you're going to see your significant other. And then you have to tell the other one hey, tomorrow I'm off, I can come see you. So it's crazy trying to keep up with all the lies. So, yes, men hide their phones. They change their password, they won't let you get their phones. Same thing for the women. Y'all these phones are going to be the death of us.
Speaker 2:So what's your biggest regret from all that?
Speaker 1:Not marrying you sooner? Seriously, seriously. I should have left that number one and married you, yep, yep. Then I wouldn't have had a vasectomy, or I wouldn't have had one later in life, I don't know. We would have had a ton more A couple of children of our own.
Speaker 2:What made you switch the light so that you couldn't do it? Is this my interview? What made you switch the light?
Speaker 1:so that you couldn't do it? Is this my interview? What made you switch the light? That was just like this doesn't interest me anymore. I just told you, not exactly what. You listening. I fell in love with you and I didn't want to keep up with the lies. I didn't want to cheat anymore.
Speaker 2:But you didn't cheat on the second one and you weren't in love with her.
Speaker 1:Man, I was working a lot and I was dog tired, so there was like no time no nothing.
Speaker 2:Could have, but didn't you really think someone can straighten up and not cheat?
Speaker 1:Yes, yeah, absolutely they can.
Speaker 2:So why do people say once a cheater, always a cheater?
Speaker 1:Because that's what they see in a fast light. That's what they see on TV, just like pit bulls. Everyone thinks pit bulls are horrible. I go into houses all the time, every week, on my full-time job, and I play with everybody's dog, especially if it's a pit bull. I play with them and they are nothing but cuddle bugs. Now, can they be trained to be aggressive? Yes, any dog, especially that damn little chihuahua, the most aggressive dog out there, the little chihuahua.
Speaker 1:Chihuahua and some chihuahuas are cute Like the kittens we got roaming around the woods.
Speaker 2:No, You've never been a cat person. I've never been a cat person. You promised me no cats person. I've never been a pet person. You promised me no cats.
Speaker 1:Mama cat just had two kittens and they're roaming around in the woods behind our house and they need some loving, they need some take care of and we have room.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:I'm going to feed them. Why are you giving me the sneak eye?
Speaker 2:Because the answer is no, fine, you win. We don't need any other mouths to feed right now. Seriously, you hate cats, so I don't get it. I really don't get it. So talk about the new upcoming series we're doing oh good, god who's?
Speaker 1:there oh, that one yeah help.
Speaker 2:I'm gasping for air.
Speaker 1:That's it. I was referencing your book.
Speaker 2:It hasn't come out yet so you and your good friend Dana she's amazing.
Speaker 1:I was referencing your book. It hasn't come out yet. It will yeah, so you and your good friend Dana.

Speaker 1:Yeah, y'all are working hard on it.
Speaker 2:Yes, we're going to have how many series? Well, it is series. You mean how many episodes, episodes? We're not sure yet. We're going to do one.
Speaker 1:She keeps me alive.
Speaker 2:We're going to do one for the narcissistic parent, we're going to do one for narcissistic grandparent, the black sheep, golden child, the family dynamic, how you heal, how you get better. I mean we're just doing a plethora, but we're really breaking it down so people can understand what goes through each position. I mean it's narcissistic Parents are. It's a big deal. You know people throw that word around, but it's not some free-flowing word that should be put around. Just because you have one or two of those characteristics does not mean you're a narcissist. You know you really have to qualify and you and I both have them on both sides of our family unfortunately, and sometimes if you're so close you may not know.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's just the way he is. Oh, that's just the way Maya is. That's just the way Dad's. You know, that's just the way they are. They have always been like that.
Speaker 2:What do you think about people who only come around and talk to you when they need something and then?
Speaker 1:What do you call it? Fair weather, friend Right.
Speaker 2:But then what about if they only reach out when they need you, but then let's say you had something done or whatever. They don't reach out to you.
Speaker 1:Then I think that's wrong, you know yeah, we all have our, our life to go through and, and you know, different things happen. And you, and you're busy and they're busy I understand, but when something drastic happens, you know, reach out to that person. You know our neighbors across the street. They reach out to us all the time. You know, hey, Mike, how's?
Speaker 1:your wife and your daughter. Well, they always say my daughter. And we tell them, you know, because I don't often post on Facebook, but I let. I let the viewers know wherever it's my wife, my daughter now.
Speaker 2:It went from yours to ours, to mine, but you keep it track.
Speaker 1:It's that stupid memory, yep so y'all be on the lookout for those episodes that series and that book. Y'all go get my book please. It'll do you some good.
Speaker 2:What's that one called?
Speaker 1:Oh, there's both of them. The first one is who Kicked First by Victoria Curie on Amazon, and then there's a whole host of activity books that you've written. Maybe you can get some for your kids. Oh, what we got. Father's Day coming up Are you serious? Is it Labor Day? Father's Day is already coming up.

I can't wait to see you after having your colonoscopy, because they're not going to give you anything. No, they'd probably give me too much. So my little stucco butt's getting a bath. Oh, and my little Faith just sent me a picture.
Speaker 2:It looks so miserable You're going to have to deal with that. I can't do that. That poor baby. He's been so good. He just knows he just comes over to me and he won't put his paws on me, he just puts his face on my neck or on my shoulder and he just lays there. He's just the sweetest, sweetest boy. That's my baby doll, stuck with my baby baby, and everyone knows it.
Speaker 1:And on that note, would you like to close us out? No, I'm gonna let you, cause I'm in a lot of pain, seriously, yeah, y'all see how much I take care of this woman.
