Welcome to the wife versus the expert.

0:03

I'm the expert, she's the wife.

0:06

And uh, this is your guide

0:08

to our life, our marriage and

0:10

also hopefully we entertain you

0:12

and also give me some things

0:14

to think about as well. Uh to hit

0:17

us up at Denisia Danielle on Twitter

0:19

at George Rice Stir, or you can send us an

0:21

email as as well

0:23

links in the bio all of these things. We

0:26

0:28

Please share the feed, tell a friend about

0:30

it. If you can't watch the whole video, download

0:33

the podcast wherever podcasts

0:35

are found. Do you have anything to say? Wife, I'm

0:39

just so it thrilled and excited to be

0:41

here with you. So oh

0:45

that's the way you started off being facetious.

0:47

Wow, that

0:50

didn't sound that didn't

0:52

sound genuine. That didn't sound genuine.

0:55

It is okay,

0:57

cool. Um. We want to start today with

1:00

our two hundred dollar rule. This

1:03

rule may not apply for everybody. Maybe

1:05

you need a different dollar limit, because

1:07

there are times that in

1:10

our marriage we have fought about the one

1:12

thing that everybody else fights about, money,

1:15

money. So we have

1:17

created a rule that way you don't

1:19

have to ask the other person to buy every single

1:22

thing. But we created a two hundred dollar rule,

1:24

so if I'm gonna buy anything that's over two hundred

1:26

dollars, you gotta run it body of

1:29

the person and vice versa. So

1:31

she bought two hundred and one dollars worth

1:33

of makeup the other day, So guess who she

1:35

had to because because

1:38

why? It doesn't matter why. I

1:40

just I get it. But I'm saying the reason

1:42

you were buying into it was because

1:45

why. I don't know why.

1:48

Because I've been learning how to do like all

1:50

these different makeup looks. Like every day I do

1:52

a new um. When I say

1:54

I do what, people are confused. I follow.

1:57

I follow a new makeup tutorial

1:59

to get like new tips on

2:01

doing makeup because I've never really

2:03

done I've only had like one makeup look

2:05

and sometimes I vary it a little bit,

2:08

but literally I don't

2:10

do it. So I'm like, Okay, well this is a time

2:12

to learn a new skill. And

2:15

George knows how much I spend to get

2:17

my makeup done, boy

2:21

one day and you

2:23

wash it off that night, so so he's

2:25

very much behind that process.

2:28

That's because that's a money saver. It's an investment

2:30

up front but it's on the back. So

2:32

I ordered two dollars worth of makeup,

2:35

which is a lot. I thought I thought

2:37

about just saying no, not now, we

2:39

don't need it, that's extra, just

2:41

to just to mess with her. But I was on

2:43

board. Oh and I would say this, order

2:46

makeup through Costco. Really.

2:49

Yes, they have like very

2:51

very very high end high end

2:53

makeup skincare um

2:57

yeah, Costco online. Okay,

2:59

cost online, and I didn't have They have them sometimes

3:01

in there. But all of that Costco is

3:03

hands down the best place way

3:06

cheaper. Like if you compare priced side by

3:08

side with safora on Costco, it's like unbelievably

3:10

cheaper. See I didn't know that. So I can do that

3:12

for my skincare regimen. You really do, We

3:15

really did, Okay, So see that's how I got

3:17

this. Everybody saw that farmer's stand, so

3:19

they know you need to be putting some uh

3:22

some block up here. What Okay,

3:24

So this wasn't even on the topic. But

3:27

every time I take my shirt off, whether we're

3:29

in a pool, shower or whatever, every

3:31

time, George, your face is a different

3:33

color than your than your body. It's so weird.

3:36

Who is that? Who says it like that you

3:41

look like a grandma. It's so weird.

3:44

Boy. If you act like

3:46

I got like a body farmers stand,

3:48

you do, you're you actually have

3:51

a whole body farmer's stand. This part

3:53

is totally different from here on my arm, same

3:56

color this part

3:58

down. Wow, See

4:00

that's what happens. I mean. So, but

4:03

anyways, the two rule, you guys

4:05

can try it out. It can be It actually is

4:07

good. I feel like I don't

4:09

feel like George has a thing with being controlled

4:12

in his marriage, you know, so he doesn't

4:14

like to have, you know, have restrictions.

4:16

But I feel like he man man

4:21

right, and I'm telling me what to do, right,

4:23

And I'm a woman, and I don't like to be told

4:25

what to do. But but that's my job. Be

4:27

submit. We're not

4:29

even going to get into that. We are.

4:33

It's a good way to work together. So if you

4:35

buy something individually for yourself, there's

4:37

that, But then it's also um,

4:40

you know, and it depends like what is your dollar

4:42

amount if you feel comfortable with it a

4:45

rule a rule a hunter

4:47

two hundred dollar rule, and for some people

4:49

that it could could be a thousand dollar rule. You never

4:52

know, depending on your social we can is

4:54

to like work you down, like start you at two hundred

4:56

and get you down ten

4:59

dollars see

5:02

control um.

5:06

And that brings us to the next thing. H d

5:08

I Y that um.

5:11

This whole coronavirus has taught us things

5:13

about d I Y do it yourself

5:16

because there's certain things that yes, you do need

5:18

to outsource because it's a poor

5:20

use of your time and your

5:23

skill because like like

5:25

me, trying to fix the toilet is not

5:27

a good use of my time because

5:30

I can be doing some other things that could be revenue

5:33

generating or whatever then

5:35

fixing the toilet, because fixing the toilet

5:37

means I gotta learn how to fix the toilet and

5:40

then fix the toilet. What

5:42

I completely disagree because

5:45

we've had this discussion before. We had a running

5:47

toilet in our house and George

5:50

called the plumber and

5:52

a cosmicty dollars to fix the running toilet. Why

5:55

did he do that? It literally

5:57

fixing the running toilet. I happen to know this from

6:00

apartment owning apartment buildings and running

6:02

selling apartment buildings. Is it's usually

6:04

it's the little the little flat thing or

6:07

the chain thing or something like that that's making

6:10

that toilet not

6:12

run properly. But I will say this,

6:15

there is so much like to tag

6:17

on what you're saying about d I y, there

6:19

is so much to learn on

6:22

YouTube that you can literally put

6:24

anything in, Like how to fix the running toilet?

6:26

I am sure had you done that,

6:29

which we weren't in the habit of doing

6:31

that before, but like hawd you do?

6:33

Now we're in the habit of doing everything. Like

6:36

I'm like, how to how to give yourself a

6:38

pedicure? How

6:41

do you how to do a drive

6:43

bar blowout? Like I am literally how

6:46

to do it drive by? That was funny. I was

6:48

like, how to do it drive I would just say dr bar, dr

6:50

bar. But like, I'm literally

6:53

learning so many different skills

6:55

that I was previously spending a

6:57

lot of money on just because

7:00

I was in the habit of doing that, and now that

7:02

we're doing that, I was saying,

7:04

like, I remember when that came up. I was like, why didn't

7:06

you just YouTube it? Or even

7:08

when when I fixed the pool

7:11

pump, Remember the poolpump was giving

7:13

an error message and

7:15

I googled that error message,

7:18

found the fix and literally was able

7:20

to fix it with just some silicone, which I

7:23

know For a fact, if we would call the pool man, it would

7:25

have been hundred dollars plus. So that

7:27

being said, go to

7:30

YouTube to do almost anything.

7:32

It's like a classroom, like an almost

7:35

anything. And maybe everybody's looking at us like duh,

7:37

like everybody doing that, but

7:40

now I'm doing it for everything. No, everybody

7:42

doesn't do it. Um

7:44

okay, So oh, teaching

7:47

Roman. So we have been doing

7:49

something to teach Roman. The baby.

7:52

He'll be twelve months in like

7:54

two weeks, right, so apparently

7:58

what are those books that you order the

8:01

author? Oh anyway,

8:06

yeah, but he's got a whole

8:08

system, right, so he's

8:11

a baby. I know that we don't think babies

8:13

can read and all this stuff, but apparently they

8:15

can from reading these books. And

8:17

so we have these. She made these handy daddy

8:20

signs and we go over them every

8:22

day for all the kids. You

8:25

know, Daddy, Mommy, Devin,

8:27

that Kayden Payton, everybody

8:29

has a sign. Messed with my flash cards and

8:31

they're that large, by the way, for a reason.

8:34

That's the that's the size Anderson red

8:36

sharpie because that's I attracting to

8:39

babies. And here's what dad did for math.

8:42

Because so this is one that's

8:45

one because apparently if you really think

8:47

about it, um, we teach

8:49

the number one as one, but that's

8:51

not one. That's actually a

8:54

symbol that represents a value.

8:57

So you see that all these

8:59

dots were rolling, all

9:02

these dots. You see this is

9:04

number uh fifty six,

9:08

this is number four.

9:11

So apparently he's gonna be able to figure this

9:13

out all the way until we get to number

9:15

one hundred, one hundred dots.

9:19

Yeah, so it took

9:22

just so waited to just so everybody knows how many

9:24

dots that that is. That is

9:27

five thousand and fifty five dots.

9:30

If if my math didn't fail me, that

9:32

we stuck on these things on

9:34

while we were Netflix and chilling.

9:36

We just made these little dots flash

9:38

cards and until three in the morning,

9:40

and I was hell attired the next day. But

9:43

she had taken a three hour nap so

9:45

so so she was just a three hours because

9:47

a couple of days ago it was like because you took a two

9:49

hour. Now now it's been three hours

9:51

since the beginning. So that's one thing that we've been

9:53

doing. Any of that is an option for

9:56

you that we ordered all the stuff from from Amazon

9:58

for like forty bucks it's

10:00

very doable. But I think everybody

10:03

right now is homeschooling

10:05

on some level, because that's probably something

10:07

we would have been like, oh, we'll take our our son to

10:09

this class. Again. This is like do some

10:12

research things that you can do yourself. And

10:14

literally this takes like five ten minutes.

10:16

We're not we're not conducting like classes.

10:19

It's just when he's happy and

10:21

and paying attention, we just go through

10:23

flash cards with him. And we haven't

10:25

seen the results yet. But um,

10:28

that's another thing, I mean, finding new ways

10:30

to homeschool your kids. I did a zoom call with

10:32

my friends, um, with some

10:34

of my friends for a birthday the other day,

10:36

and all of the moms were

10:39

had different viewpoints on what

10:42

their schools were doing for their

10:44

kids and why they

10:46

thought either they were going to think about transferring

10:48

schools, think about requesting reductions

10:51

intuition, or doing

10:54

it themselves. So this is just something

10:56

to keep in mind that there are options

10:59

available on line con Academy, but

11:01

I mean it's probably the favorite. I'm sure most

11:03

most parents know about it, but if you don't, there's

11:05

also other options on

11:08

there. Um, and if you're looking

11:10

to do your own education,

11:12

there are Harvard classes

11:15

for free. Yes, so if you really

11:18

interesting cool ones. So if you're looking

11:20

to add like a new skill during this time, because we've

11:22

got at least yeah, that's not for your kids, that's for you.

11:24

If you thirty more days like this

11:27

is a good opportunity to maybe take a Harvard class online.

11:30

Yeah. So, so I think that

11:32

for us just learning and could

11:34

really considering non traditional learning

11:37

tools and all of that, because we get so stuck

11:39

sometimes and the way we learn things

11:41

and how this is supposed to be done. But in reality,

11:44

we really want our kids to be what healthy

11:46

productive smart people. And

11:49

smart is not always being able to it's

11:52

not always measured in

11:54

UH standardized test scores. It's

11:57

being able to think properly, being

12:00

able to solve problems, figure out

12:02

answers and come up with solutions

12:04

yourself. And then just also,

12:06

I mean, I think I saw a meme about it, but I

12:09

think it's so important to teach your kids

12:11

other life skills cooking,

12:13

gardening, um, you

12:15

know, even landscaping. Like we

12:18

we have been in the habit

12:20

of sending our kids to school. And if there's

12:22

a gift that comes out of this, like

12:24

coronavirus, family time it's really

12:26

teaching them other stuff. We play

12:28

Monopoly games, which trust me, I use many

12:32

many opportunities to give like

12:34

real estate tips and advice.

12:37

There's also um if you have

12:39

older kids, uh cash

12:41

Flow UM made by the maker

12:44

of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. It's like advanced

12:46

real estate. So it's like almost like advanced Monopoly,

12:48

but you learn more advanced concepts

12:51

and real estate. And I think it's

12:53

it's so important to not just bond,

12:55

but you know, really give this an opportunity

12:57

to teach your children life and

13:01

not just what we you

13:03

know, the standard core curriculum that we've been teaching

13:06

our kids. Yeah, because think about all the things you didn't

13:08

know when you got Oh you're

13:10

not necessarily balanced a check book. You know

13:13

how to cook, you know how to clean up, you know how

13:15

to like, like you said, garden,

13:17

you know how to you know, just fix

13:19

a door knob. Just all sorts

13:21

of things that they may need to know that

13:23

they can learn how to problem solve, how to make it. You

13:26

were teaching Damon how to do pool pork

13:28

yesterday. Yeah, like teaching them how

13:30

to grow ye smoke but yeah

13:32

smoke, to teach them how to

13:35

light light the fire why you clean

13:38

it a certain way. All of these things the way

13:40

they know, the way that they feel comfortable, because

13:43

I always love the fact, like

13:45

when we go on vacation,

13:47

like we have we go camping

13:49

some well glamping, I guess because we're in a cabin.

13:52

But teaching them stuff like how

13:55

to tie up a boat, how

13:57

to pull it into a dock, how

14:00

all of these things the way when they get older

14:02

and they have to do these things with their family,

14:04

they're not intimidated to do them that

14:06

They're like, no, no, no no, I know how to do that. I know how

14:08

to start a fire, I know how to do this, I know how

14:10

to do that. I think that that's the most

14:12

important thing that you can teach them is to

14:15

be courageous and to go out

14:17

in the world and do new things. Like I want

14:19

to learn how to use a compass good the way I can teach

14:21

them how to use it because they'll probably

14:23

never need it. How to use a

14:25

compass good? Yeah, no,

14:29

but how navigating with the compass

14:31

is not just just straightforward like that. See,

14:34

that's exactly what you need to learn how to use a compass

14:36

to. I need to learn how to use a compass

14:38

good. UM,

14:43

I'm wondering have people figured out people

14:45

with families. I'm not talking about you single

14:47

you single people, or your

14:52

your your new relationship, having newly

14:54

weds with no kids. We're not talking to you.

14:57

We're talking about people

14:59

with kids, parents, parents. How

15:02

the hell are you supposed to have a date night during coronavirus.

15:08

I mean, I know we

15:11

kind of have our date walks,

15:13

but they're always like agenda. They're

15:15

not like just hanging out. We're always like, we

15:17

got a baby with us. So

15:21

if you guys have any thoughts or how

15:23

to how to play in a sexy date night,

15:27

so get baby number six. Oh god,

15:29

I'm joking up, joking, joking,

15:32

um during coronavirus,

15:34

send it to us. Leave a

15:36

comment. We are definitely interested

15:39

in that. But I want

15:41

to know when we get

15:43

off of stay at home orders, what's

15:46

the what are the first three

15:48

things that you're gonna do or the

15:50

three things that you want to do the most. I

15:53

want to get back on my gym program

15:57

where I go to Orange Theory,

15:59

I do my workout early morning

16:02

and and then come back and have the rest of my day.

16:05

That's a big one is going to the

16:07

gym. Um, this

16:09

Corona has made me want a gym at home

16:11

more. That's probably

16:13

I mean I could do that, I guess, Yeah, I

16:16

mean I would be on board with that. But

16:18

I do like to be able to actually

16:21

not like move the living room

16:23

around, put

16:26

mat down in there, put a rack,

16:28

all those things. You have to make a plan for

16:31

that. And then we can put the screen

16:33

in there too, so you can watch videos

16:35

if you want to. Yeah, I like that. I like

16:37

that. And then we can save some of that gym money to it to

16:39

be an investment up front but no

16:42

reason, and then we can train these churrens

16:44

here too. Yeah. But

16:48

I'm just thinking we need like an air conditioner

16:50

because in the summer would be crazy hot.

16:53

That's all right, old school, old school

16:56

hot. Get that. I

16:58

want to be comfortable. It's

17:01

a workout you're supposed to sweat, but

17:03

I'm gonna be comfortable. Wow.

17:07

The top three things that I want to do when

17:09

I when we get off of orders. First

17:11

thing I'm doing when we get off of orders this I'm

17:14

not going no damn where because I'm gonna let

17:16

y'all test out the waters. Yeah,

17:20

I wouldn't want to go to the gym right away.

17:22

I'm not going new. We're really like

17:24

the first month. Now, I'm gonna let y'all see how

17:26

this go, and then once

17:29

once once y'all either make it or don't

17:31

make it, and then we'll make a decision

17:34

from there. Uh. The first

17:36

but the top thing I want to do is I want to go

17:38

to my kids games. No, I want

17:40

you to go to the barber first. Your

17:44

first stop and the kids first

17:46

stop is the barber, because that boy

17:50

you refuse to d I y, I'm

17:52

not learning how to cut my hair. Did

17:54

you understand that that you

17:56

you sometimes make television appearances

17:59

and you could just no,

18:03

that's an outsource. That is a going

18:05

to the barber. Change your mind about that because

18:07

you I'm telling you, if you can do it yourself,

18:11

it will change your

18:13

life in terms of how much time when

18:16

you go to the barber. How much time does that take when

18:18

you take the kids about

18:20

two hours exactly. That's

18:23

a lot of time actually,

18:25

like hour and a half. And you have to do it pretty

18:28

repeatedly, right, like every two

18:30

weeks. That's

18:33

that's many many hours. Just

18:36

saying it's

18:38

still take why

18:40

don't you just try it? I'm

18:42

not confident, but if you don't have any

18:44

Listen, we have another month. Oh

18:47

so I can screw my head up and yeah,

18:49

nobody would. I

18:52

can't look worse right now, you know what I'm saying, Yes

18:55

it can. How

18:58

am I supposed to record videos with the

19:00

bad fade? I rather had this load?

19:02

I think it would be funny. I'd rather

19:04

have this t w A. You

19:07

trying to do it yourself is actually

19:10

thoughtful. I'm telling you it's a good

19:12

use of time. She's trying to wear me

19:15

down. This is what this woman does when

19:17

when she's got a through in opinion of sharpening

19:20

you, iron sharpens iron

19:23

when sharpening, she has a thought about

19:25

something. If you have you guys, ever met anybody

19:27

who is relentless about it, like they

19:29

will not let it go under it. I

19:31

mean like she'll bring it up like you

19:34

know. I think I'm

19:36

challenging you, George. I'm challenging

19:38

you to do this. I don't have

19:40

prides arounding this, so today challenge

19:43

won't work. Challenges only work when

19:45

when pride is involved. Um. Second

19:47

thing is I would like to have a date night, or

19:49

at least be able to go to the movies all

19:52

by myself. What

19:55

I like going to the movies to

19:57

have a date night or go by myself.

20:02

You really want to go by yourself, which

20:04

is fine because I would like to

20:06

go by myself places, but that's

20:10

what I want. I will definitely not be doing

20:12

anymore my hand

20:14

in stone. No,

20:17

I'm not going in there and getting a massage where

20:19

some other coronavirus patient was

20:22

laying down and have this lady bending

20:24

over my face. I honestly think that

20:27

we should try to find some sort of like

20:30

like get one of those tables

20:34

and have a like a massage

20:36

table slash facial table. Okay,

20:39

you know what I mean. So then we just have the person

20:41

kind of come to us and

20:43

we're only exposed to that one

20:46

person, and maybe we saved

20:49

some money. But

20:51

people are looking at this like

20:53

like these are like caviar problems. No,

20:56

but I'm saying, if you spend money, I

20:59

love, it's like my time. Like

21:01

you go to the movies for your time, right,

21:03

one of the things I like to do is go to a massage

21:06

for my time. But now that's

21:09

not really you know, really

21:11

what I want to do. Okay,

21:13

Well, how about I just um

21:17

or you can you can rip it down. But

21:20

then I don't have to be around you. See, I don't get my time,

21:23

see exactly so so

21:25

so now I think I think about this, so

21:27

I get to go to the movie. I'd love to go to the movies

21:30

all by myself, so I can come

21:32

in here in the man cave be

21:35

like, babe, I'm gonna watch a movie all by

21:37

myself and not be bothered.

21:41

Oh yes, this

21:43

week, I'm doing it. I'm

21:45

just saying it the way. I'm gonna be like kids. But daddy's

21:48

not Daddy's not here. Don't

21:50

bother. No, you gotta do it when the kids

21:52

the kids, uh not, everybody's

21:55

going crazy. It cannot be during a crazy kid

21:57

time. It can be late

22:00

night, it can be um,

22:03

yeah, no problem,

22:05

no problem. We don't have

22:08

our own individual self

22:10

date night. Um.

22:12

And the last thing I want to do is I want to travel.

22:16

And granted, um, I don't know if

22:18

she's gonna be cool. We're getting on airplanes and all

22:20

that stuff initially, and like I said

22:22

a month in the travel Bug,

22:24

like I'm the one who always wants to travel. Um,

22:27

we are considering an RV vacation

22:31

because we can still I mean, even

22:33

if this thing pushes over into the summertime.

22:35

We can still self quarantine. We can

22:37

still do all of that social

22:40

distance. We can still social distance. Yes,

22:42

so sorry, physical physical distance

22:44

not necessarily social physical physical

22:47

distancing. We can physical distance

22:49

and physically distancing on our

22:52

vacation. But while

22:54

we're seeing national

22:56

monuments, national parks,

22:59

hopefully the national parks are open. I mean

23:01

that would that would be the first. We're not planning anything

23:03

until we know that part, but that's kind

23:05

of what we're thinking. Like the national parks need

23:07

to be open, Like I feel like those need to

23:09

be open because like people

23:12

drive through them in their cars. Like you can limit

23:14

the amount of you know, there are options open

23:17

to national parks. Otherwise we're gonna be

23:19

like to see where I'm not going disney

23:21

World. Too

23:24

many people, too many germs. I

23:26

love disney World. You wanted to go to disney World?

23:30

No way? Okay, So how long before?

23:33

Because romans gonna be one, So at

23:35

some point in time he's gonna start watching maybe

23:38

three, I think he needs to be able to get

23:40

on some of the stuff. Maybe three or four. When

23:43

he's three or four, we'll do that. We'll see where things

23:45

are in that time. You

23:48

might have to put him

23:50

put put him in like his own like personal

23:53

his own like personal condom,

23:56

like to like, oh my

23:58

gosh, friends face

24:00

out and then be like, hey, here you go.

24:02

Everybody's got to wear it. We're

24:05

gonna put them in as not an actual

24:08

condom. But you know what I mean. Never

24:10

because I saw a meme, I'm gonna

24:13

should I put it up? Yeah? Yeah,

24:16

so the

24:18

one the one I showed you where this

24:22

is, Hey, this is not for kids. For

24:25

the next ten seconds, boom,

24:28

there it is, because

24:35

because you know, that's what dude throughout

24:37

here doing. So if you

24:39

were single, right, single woman,

24:41

no kid or whatever, and you

24:44

don't like where

24:46

there's a lot of people who live in other states, work in

24:48

other states, all these things, and they're just they're

24:50

all by themselves aside from their friend group.

24:52

And if you're dating, how would you

24:54

handle dating in Corona

24:58

and you and you're and your dude

25:01

lives, you know, twenty

25:03

minutes away. I think dating

25:05

gets put on pause? Would you isolate

25:08

together? Because that's like if we are

25:11

very, very very advanced in

25:13

the relationship, I'd consider that. But

25:16

like I mean, I'm saying, like, either

25:19

engaged you know something

25:22

there, I'd probably isolate together,

25:24

but not not

25:26

like some random so like, so like, how

25:28

would you handle to get down? You know when when

25:30

like you have your old times where you want to you

25:32

know, have some adult time and get and

25:35

get down. Would you be would becoming over

25:37

I'm a virtuous Christian woman,

25:40

so there would be no get down.

25:43

Um, I think you had a baby before you get married,

25:45

So um, how would you

25:47

handle it? No? But I'm I mean I am in a

25:49

different space now. If I was, I

25:52

mean if I was twenty and social distance

25:54

and became a thing or physical distance

25:56

became a thing, it would really suck when we

25:59

were kind of in more

26:02

younger relationships and not

26:04

very advanced and that probably

26:06

not really having um,

26:09

like you'd have like a lot of financial issues.

26:11

I don't know, it would be a hard hard

26:14

time. Yeah, yeah,

26:16

because it's because hard hard time. I mean,

26:18

I don't even know if I would have anything for dating,

26:20

but I'm sure you would be struggling. How would you

26:22

have been? Hella upset? Are you kidding

26:25

me? Like, like it was

26:27

like a whole week never went went

26:29

by, So I was like, I don't

26:31

know how I would handle that. Hey,

26:34

Caden, what's

26:36

ubody? It's beep? Okay,

26:39

cool, all right, We'll be done in two

26:41

seconds. Kayda

26:46

come here? Okay, then come

26:48

here, come here. We're

26:50

doing a wife versus expect just

26:56

the cutest kid ever. Come here, Caden please,

27:00

Oh now you're shy. Okay

27:03

okay. Nothing has

27:06

given me more joy

27:08

and happiness in the whole world

27:10

than seeing Lebron James try

27:13

to get his kids on an Instagram live

27:15

video where he was live with Diddy and

27:18

and his kids are like no, no, no, And

27:20

he was like, come on, man, come on, Brody, come

27:22

on, Bryce, whatever, and they were like

27:24

no, not And he was like, oh man, these kids too cool

27:26

for school. And I was like, oh my

27:28

god, It's not just me. I'm not the

27:30

only corny dad. No.

27:36

I was like, damn, even Lebron James

27:38

can't even get his kids and videos. But

27:41

you wouldn't think that necessarily based

27:43

upon the fact that they do TikTok's together, videos

27:45

together, all of that stuff like we do. But it

27:47

is a struggle. Sometimes it's a fight, and sometimes

27:50

you gotta be like, hey, yo, you get into this video like

27:52

like I did the other day.

27:55

Whatever. Hey, sometimes you gotta participate,

27:58

um now at this time for everybody's

28:00

favorite segment, yours

28:03

and mine. It's time for what say

28:05

it with your chess? Say it with your chest. I went first

28:07

last time Europe. This time, da

28:10

oh go. I'm

28:12

gonna try a different approach. I'm not going to be so

28:15

um forceful about it. And we've

28:17

kind of already touched on the topic. UM.

28:21

I believe that, as your

28:23

spouse and partner in life,

28:25

that I have made certain sacrifices

28:28

and adjustments for due

28:30

to our experience in coronavirus sacrifices

28:34

and corona. I'm sorry you

28:36

are talking anyway, um,

28:41

I and I have made efforts

28:44

to d I Y,

28:46

and I am asking you

28:49

to make those same efforts with regard

28:51

to d I Y. So that would

28:54

include fixing

28:56

things around the house yourself.

29:00

That would include cutting your hair

29:03

yourself. And

29:05

that would include no,

29:09

we'll just start that, we'll leave it there, just fixing

29:11

things around the house yourself. I'd like to see an

29:13

increased effort there as well as

29:15

personal room. And you

29:17

can stop. You took

29:19

my seconds away talking, so that stop stop.

29:22

Thank you. Um.

29:25

And as you know, I can't respond to that. She

29:27

just got a chance to rant. Just say it with her chest,

29:29

Get it off. Now it's my turn. And there's

29:33

nothing more frustrating and infuriating

29:36

in the whole ride world than when you

29:38

have a conversation in November

29:41

about an expense or

29:43

about anything, and

29:45

then in April you're

29:48

having the same conversation. George,

29:51

what what what was this charge in

29:53

on November four? What? What did we

29:55

get from Costco on November four?

29:58

I don't know, Like am I supposed

30:00

to remember what I got a Costco on November

30:03

four? Like at some point in time,

30:05

like or if it's something else

30:08

that's controversial with us. We talked

30:10

about it in November, we resolved it.

30:13

Then why are you bringing

30:15

it up again? We already talked

30:17

about this, We already came up with a new solution.

30:20

Let it go. It's dead just But

30:23

like I said, Denicia won't lets stuff go. She'll

30:25

just keep kicking the dead horse and kicking it and kicking

30:27

it and kicking it and kicking it like Marshall

30:30

Lynch, over and over and over

30:32

and over. Stop stop,

30:34

you got two extra seconds? Okay,

30:39

I was boring. That was born, That

30:41

was facts. Okay. So

30:43

the last thing up is so

30:46

the opposite of just say it with your chest when

30:48

you gotta get something off your chest. Saying

30:51

yes, say it with love, so

30:54

glow style your

30:58

your first say it, say it with love. No,

31:00

you're up first, Go you

31:03

can just do thirty secings. You

31:06

look very pretty again. You've

31:08

been doing your makeup all this stuff. But

31:13

but I've been trying to tell her, like, I don't

31:15

need all that stuff. I think my wife is beautiful

31:17

already. I think she's intelligent,

31:19

smart, and I've been thinking,

31:22

like I kind of want this woman to be a housewife

31:26

because she is getting

31:28

so good at these domestic duties that she didn't

31:31

do very much, and now she's getting

31:33

very good at it. I enjoy it, love

31:35

her. No, I want my whole minute. Um.

31:38

So she's doing all these

31:40

things. I really like it. Um. She's

31:42

just so smart. She's able to like grow

31:45

things like literally Proverbs thirty

31:47

one grow, increase

31:50

your family, all of it stuff, whether it's

31:52

a love, finances or whatever else. She

31:54

has a great job and I appreciate it. Boom,

31:56

I'm done. That was sweet,

31:58

babe. So Hey,

32:01

y'all already know what that means. Cavin

32:06

help me get your

32:09

dad, corny dad. Okay,

32:12

here we go. I

32:16

would like to acknowledge you for

32:19

taking initiatives a

32:22

lot better. There's been certain times where

32:24

I'd be like, what about to tell him feed

32:27

the baby? Can you feed the baby? Doesn't he's

32:29

realized the baby is hungry? Why didn't he just go make

32:31

it? Or we you know, we know we're about to put the baby

32:33

down and go get the bottle. Blah blah blah.

32:35

He wasn't doing that, but now he

32:39

is. And sometimes he's like meal

32:41

planning, like planning ahead and

32:45

take this pool of pork off and

32:50

being very very

32:52

consistent with

32:55

working out and staying

32:57

on top of our walks and

33:00

training Roman, and that

33:02

takes the load off of me. So I greatly,

33:05

greatly, greatly appreciate that. You're

33:08

welcome. M hmm. This

33:10

is a good week. This is a good week. Last week we

33:12
