The Motherhood Playbook Nobody Gave You

WEBVTT

00:00:05.631 --> 00:00:06.974
Okay, so welcome to our podcast.

00:00:06.974 --> 00:00:12.932
This is a little bit different today, because this podcast is a spinoff of our radio show.

00:00:12.932 --> 00:00:24.585
This is my podcast.

00:00:24.585 --> 00:00:30.788
Right, this is the John J Van Ness podcast, and this is the first time, before I introduce our guests, that my wife Blake is going to co-host with me.

00:00:30.788 --> 00:00:34.008
Oh right, because we've got Regina and Rick Steele.

00:00:34.008 --> 00:00:38.011
You have a new book out and is it okay to cuss on this podcast?

00:00:38.011 --> 00:00:39.258
Yeah, it's your podcast.

00:00:39.579 --> 00:00:40.645
I wanted to ask that too.

00:00:41.701 --> 00:00:43.588
Because, I mean, the book is called.

00:00:47.140 --> 00:00:48.103
Mother ask that too, because I mean it's.

00:00:48.103 --> 00:00:51.396
The book is called mother fucked, mother fucked the anti-perfectionist guide to surviving and thriving in the chaos of modern motherhood.

00:00:51.396 --> 00:00:55.427
Wow, and it's not a parenting book it is not a parenting book, absolutely not, no.

00:00:55.427 --> 00:00:55.567
When?

00:00:55.588 --> 00:00:59.652
I read the whole thing, what your book was I was like, oh my god, she's gonna, she's gone through this stuff.

00:00:59.872 --> 00:01:08.183
She's gone through this stuff because you're a mother of three girls we have, uh, two girls and one boy, oh, and then my older stepdaughter, who's 24.

00:01:08.183 --> 00:01:15.105
She basically takes care of herself now, but and she is a mother of three boys oh yes, so I know the three.

00:01:15.125 --> 00:01:18.051
Thing and rick.

00:01:18.051 --> 00:01:25.301
So before we get like really get into the meat of the book and stuff, I think there's there's an interesting little connection the four of us have of stuff.

00:01:25.301 --> 00:01:27.125
I think there's there's an interesting little connection the four of us have.

00:01:27.125 --> 00:01:40.906
Right, I met you, rick, not that long ago because I was at jesse itzler's house in rome, georgia, and I was doing saunaing and I was doing and I met this great guy, and this great guy says to me you got to meet my friend rick, and so you and I are connected.

00:01:40.906 --> 00:01:46.942
Uh, you know, jesse, yeah, right, she just got back from jesse's house in Connecticut, just a couple of days ago.

00:01:47.043 --> 00:01:48.305
I did the mastermind.

00:01:48.585 --> 00:01:52.754
Oh, very cool it was the coolest thing ever.

00:01:53.135 --> 00:02:01.903
Like like I came back feeling like I expected it to be like kind of a networking thing, but it was so, not like that.

00:02:01.903 --> 00:02:04.810
We made relationships, we pushed ourselves.

00:02:04.810 --> 00:02:06.534
I did Hell on the Hill 15 times.

00:02:06.534 --> 00:02:08.566
Thank you very much.

00:02:08.566 --> 00:02:09.971
That was amazing.

00:02:09.971 --> 00:02:12.288
And yes, jesse has never met a stranger.

00:02:12.288 --> 00:02:13.645
He's the coolest guy.

00:02:13.645 --> 00:02:16.530
He's just genuine nice, smart.

00:02:16.530 --> 00:02:18.504
I enjoyed him so much.

00:02:19.081 --> 00:02:21.248
I call Jesse the best curator of people I've ever met.

00:02:21.248 --> 00:02:27.784
He is impeccable at just bringing the right people around him, but when you're you're, how many people were there?

00:02:27.784 --> 00:02:28.306
20 or 30?

00:02:28.306 --> 00:02:33.449
It was like 40 people there, wow so but you felt like family when you left right, because that's the way it is with hell in the hill.

00:02:33.490 --> 00:02:40.903
Every year we go and there's 150 people, and all of these people we consider great friends, except for we see them most of them once a year.

00:02:40.903 --> 00:02:41.564
Yeah, once a year.

00:02:41.564 --> 00:02:47.343
But Matt, I think, is who connected yeah you know I've had, I've seen matt seven times in my life.

00:02:47.343 --> 00:02:51.573
Six have been at hell on the hill right yeah, but yeah, it was such a.

00:02:51.752 --> 00:02:53.805
She was telling me how you know it was at the house.

00:02:53.805 --> 00:02:58.664
He just let people in their house walk around oh you, he, there was no rules.

00:02:58.805 --> 00:03:14.444
I mean, he was like people were walking around his house and he's upstairs and people stayed there and he was, you know what, at the end of the day, like he doesn't have to do this, like he can run off into the sunset and go travel and do what he wants to do.

00:03:14.444 --> 00:03:32.766
But I think he genuinely loves connecting people, like you say, and I walked out of there like vibrating on a higher level, so I feel like, oh my gosh, I can go do my business now and I've met some wonderful people that I've been communicating with the last three days and yeah amazing.

00:03:33.443 --> 00:03:34.371
And then also with your book.

00:03:34.371 --> 00:03:35.460
Isn't he somehow tied to it?

00:03:35.460 --> 00:03:37.366
Or does his wife write something in your book?

00:03:37.747 --> 00:04:11.631
Well, no, so I just know Jesse through Rick, because when I went to hell on the hill the first time actually, I'll let you know the funny story that got edited from the social media platforms because of sarah thank god for her but um, the first time I succeeded in a hundred hills, I started getting sick in a trash can and they have it all on hd camera over me with his phone recording it and Sarah comes up to him and says you're going to take that off your phone right now, Jesse, yeah.

00:04:11.972 --> 00:04:12.612
Yeah, wow.

00:04:12.673 --> 00:04:16.511
So yeah, but that, yeah, we all just know each other for hanging out and everything.

00:04:16.511 --> 00:04:20.091
I'm really good friends with Leslie, who's, I mean she was there.

00:04:20.091 --> 00:04:21.060
Oh, she's amazing.

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.425
In fact, I was saying that he needs to have her on.

00:04:23.504 --> 00:04:24.906
Yeah, Leslie's amazing Because.

00:04:24.947 --> 00:04:27.411
I want to eat so that I don't have to wear sunscreen.

00:04:27.411 --> 00:04:29.074
That's my big goal from Leslie.

00:04:29.233 --> 00:04:30.882
Yeah, leslie is the vegan chef.

00:04:30.901 --> 00:04:33.269
Yeah, I want to eat clean enough where I don't have to wear sunscreen.

00:04:33.379 --> 00:04:45.911
Yeah, and she's so great and I've met so many amazing people through them as well just going to Hell on the Hill, and then people will just reach out to us because they know rick has done all the insane things with jesse insane dude.

00:04:45.971 --> 00:04:49.894
I know some they're crazy well, and jesse and i's relationship began the same way.

00:04:49.894 --> 00:04:55.266
Really, it's like the way jesse reaches out to people, or really the way I reach out to people as well, which is, like you know, kind of like a nerdy.

00:04:55.266 --> 00:04:56.209
Hey, do you want to hang out?

00:04:56.209 --> 00:05:06.821
Like you know you remember doing that as a kid but, we don't do that as adults right and you know, you, you, when you lock in on somebody you know you'll be friends with just go for the ask, you know.

00:05:06.821 --> 00:05:07.906
Say yes or no right.

00:05:08.540 --> 00:05:09.305
And it was a yes.

00:05:09.305 --> 00:05:13.166
And then you know, now I find myself every time the phone rings before I have an answer.

00:05:13.166 --> 00:05:17.435
If it says Jesse on it, I look at Regina and I'm like all right, get ready to clear the calendar for something.

00:05:17.940 --> 00:05:20.562
It's always something like that how long have you two been together?

00:05:22.608 --> 00:05:23.211
Four or five years.

00:05:25.579 --> 00:05:26.845
He said you been together five, four or five years.

00:05:26.845 --> 00:05:27.225
He said it right.

00:05:27.225 --> 00:05:27.487
The other I.

00:05:27.487 --> 00:05:28.310
I messed it up on our anniversary.

00:05:28.310 --> 00:05:28.833
That was totally my bad.

00:05:28.833 --> 00:05:29.735
I was a year off where we have been.

00:05:29.776 --> 00:05:30.177
We have been.

00:05:30.177 --> 00:05:39.567
We've been married since 2008, and so that's uh 17 years, and we've known each other now for 21 years yeah, wow, so tell us about mother fucked.

00:05:39.567 --> 00:05:43.740
Oh, what a great title by the way, can I say something real quick here?

00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:44.420
the title's okay.

00:05:45.341 --> 00:05:48.266
Because this morning I had breakfast with, I think, your friend, Kurt Warner.

00:05:48.706 --> 00:05:49.226
Oh yeah.

00:05:49.247 --> 00:05:50.327
And he said tell John Jay.

00:05:50.327 --> 00:05:56.656
I said hey, but as I'm presenting this book to him, somebody across the table says hey, rick, tell Kurt about your book.

00:05:56.656 --> 00:06:01.985
And I'm like I don't think I can say this around Kurt, but we're going to go for it, I'm going for it, right?

00:06:01.985 --> 00:06:12.708
And he immediately locked in and was like I love it, my wife will love that She'll be, all over that I made him buy the book right at the table Did you really yeah, that's awesome, I'm going to get them on the podcast?

00:06:12.769 --> 00:06:13.492
Yes, you do.

00:06:14.521 --> 00:06:16.168
He's a great people, great human being.

00:06:16.168 --> 00:06:17.846
I'm so glad he liked the name of the book.

00:06:17.846 --> 00:06:29.882
Didn't say it, brenda will say it.

00:06:29.882 --> 00:06:30.221
Yeah, he was fun.

00:06:30.221 --> 00:06:31.144
Yeah, so what inspired you to write?

00:06:31.185 --> 00:06:32.387
this book and what's the general consensus.

00:06:32.387 --> 00:06:36.725
So for me it actually was a bunch of nudging from a lot of people, in particular this guy.

00:06:36.725 --> 00:06:54.064
So I've been a health blogger for about five years and that actually started because I went to an integrative health school, got certified, only to help myself with my health issues, because after I had kids, most of us don't really know what the heck is going on inside our bodies.

00:06:54.064 --> 00:06:59.307
We're just told by doctors oh, you need these prescriptions to make yourself more balanced and you know, figure this out.

00:06:59.307 --> 00:07:09.889
And I witnessed my mom and a lot of other women go through like the ups and downs of doses on antidepressants and I was just not really having that.

00:07:09.889 --> 00:07:27.161
So I literally threw a prescription, slip away, went to an integrative naturopathic doctor and I sat in the office with that one person for an hour and 15 minutes and my mind was blown and I said there's a whole other world I had no idea existed.

00:07:27.161 --> 00:07:28.985
So that's kind of where it started.

00:07:28.985 --> 00:07:32.882
And then I got introduced to IIN, which is where I went for school.

00:07:32.882 --> 00:07:44.290
My cousin sent me a link because she knew I was getting really into the research of it and I went through that just to heal my complications, which were a lot of autoimmune conditions and a lot of health issues.

00:07:44.290 --> 00:07:44.860
So it started helping me.

00:07:44.860 --> 00:07:45.653
But then I noticed a lot of autoimmune conditions and a lot of health issues.

00:07:45.653 --> 00:07:47.548
So it started helping me.

00:07:47.810 --> 00:07:54.826
But then I noticed a lot of my family and friends were asking me for advice, which most people don't come to me for advice.

00:07:54.826 --> 00:07:57.353
So I was like, okay, there must be something here.

00:07:57.353 --> 00:08:06.889
So I started, like you know, giving a lot of people advice, helping them out, creating plans for them, and I was like, okay, maybe I should become a coach, cause I didn't want to become a coach.

00:08:06.889 --> 00:08:09.744
I'm like, nope, totally not me Not going to be a coach, not at all.

00:08:09.744 --> 00:08:19.762
But, um, I I eventually became a coach and once I started writing the blog and everything, he was like you have enough blogs to write a book?

00:08:19.762 --> 00:08:21.461
He's like why don't you write a book?

00:08:21.461 --> 00:08:23.723
And I'm like because I don't write books.

00:08:23.723 --> 00:08:24.603
She doesn't have blogs to write.

00:08:24.624 --> 00:08:26.103
I don't write books, ten books.

00:08:26.184 --> 00:08:30.386
Yeah, and is it all based off of your own like was it gut issues, is it?

00:08:30.386 --> 00:08:31.985
It's everything, it's everything.

00:08:32.046 --> 00:08:32.886
It's everything.

00:08:32.886 --> 00:08:52.793
And it was interesting because the amount of moms I discovered I was helping, that's where I was like oh, maybe there is a void here, because I have so many moms asking me for help that you know they're actually coming to someone who's not a doctor, who's not considered an expert in any way, shape or form.

00:08:52.793 --> 00:08:59.096
They just want something simple, something basic, because their life is already full of crazy chaos.

00:08:59.096 --> 00:09:01.616
They don't want a 50,000 step plan.

00:09:01.616 --> 00:09:05.158
You know that's going to cost them ridiculous amounts of supplements.

00:09:05.158 --> 00:09:09.110
They just want something so simple and it's like that's kind of what I've created.

00:09:09.530 --> 00:09:11.101
Something simple so simple.

00:09:11.101 --> 00:09:11.602
What's a?

00:09:11.602 --> 00:09:12.666
What's a?

00:09:12.666 --> 00:09:15.832
A resolution or an answer for somebody that has a problem?

00:09:16.139 --> 00:09:18.066
Well, if they, especially autoimmune conditions.

00:09:18.066 --> 00:09:19.990
I help with a lot of autoimmune conditions.

00:09:19.990 --> 00:09:27.254
We start with nutrition and a lot of BS is thrown out there about nutrition and it's all false.

00:09:27.254 --> 00:09:29.205
It's completely false, like you know.

00:09:29.205 --> 00:09:33.563
Even listening to Leslie talking about food, it's individual, Like.

00:09:33.563 --> 00:09:39.624
The very first thing I learned is bio-individuality is we are all completely different people, like.

00:09:39.624 --> 00:09:46.149
Not any two of us are going to be identical on what our needs and wants are, so you have to figure it out for yourself.

00:09:46.149 --> 00:09:57.753
So I kind of put women through somewhat of an elimination diet, but it's not really an elimination diet, it's just removing processed food from your diet and eating real food.

00:09:57.753 --> 00:09:58.865
It's that simple.

00:09:58.865 --> 00:10:00.788
It's like what is a whole food?

00:10:00.788 --> 00:10:05.943
It's something that doesn't have to have a label, that's a food, that's food, food.

00:10:05.943 --> 00:10:11.942
Try eating that instead of all the stuff that comes in a box or a bag and a lot of people don't believe it because they're like.

00:10:11.982 --> 00:10:16.644
It's so simple, like this too simple it's like no, that's, that's how it is.

00:10:16.644 --> 00:10:24.764
Like try it, and then people expect it to be overnight because we're brainwashed into thinking, oh well, well, pills help you automatically.

00:10:24.764 --> 00:10:29.809
So if this doesn't help me automatically, then whatever, I'm not going to do it anymore.

00:10:29.809 --> 00:10:33.133
But it's like it's taking you how many years to destroy your body.

00:10:33.133 --> 00:10:34.254
Give it six weeks.

00:10:34.914 --> 00:10:35.216
Wow.

00:10:35.475 --> 00:10:36.216
See what happens.

00:10:40.201 --> 00:10:41.243
And it's amazing what happens in six weeks.

00:10:41.243 --> 00:10:44.424
You know my son who's over there he will not put anything bad in his body, Thank God.

00:10:44.445 --> 00:10:45.947
So we just over the weekend.

00:10:46.567 --> 00:10:48.408
He drinks raw milk, right, and he gets it.

00:10:48.408 --> 00:10:56.054
So we found this place that sells raw milk and then I was talking about it on my radio show and so this woman messaged me and she's like did you guys ever get a hold of the raw milk?

00:10:56.054 --> 00:10:57.677
And I said what's up, what do you got?

00:10:57.677 --> 00:11:07.249
And she tells me about a all in and she goes and I can deliver tea for 25.

00:11:07.249 --> 00:11:07.469
I'll do it.

00:11:07.469 --> 00:11:08.594
So saturday morning and I stay away from bread.

00:11:08.594 --> 00:11:12.671
I'm trying to, because you know, bread's the enemy, my sister's always told me, and I'm trying to stay in shape, lose weight.

00:11:12.671 --> 00:11:25.159
But they brought uh, we bought this bread bagels and english muffins that were made that morning with just the basic raw ingredients, like starter and whatever I don't know how to make five ingredients.

00:11:25.541 --> 00:11:37.561
Yeah, whatever, yeah and and they brought the milk raw milk in bottles, like from like back in the old days, oh yeah and uh, and some yogurt and some cheeses and some jellies and peanut butter homemade peanut butter.

00:11:37.561 --> 00:11:46.544
So it's 8 am and I usually fast, I don't eat till one but I was scarfing down this bread and I was just ready for the bloat and to feel terrible and I didn't.

00:11:46.544 --> 00:11:48.592
It was bizarre.

00:11:48.592 --> 00:11:51.241
Then we went to a wedding that night and I ate bread and I felt that book.

00:11:51.241 --> 00:11:55.140
I was like I've been eating bread like crazy, I'm gonna feel good and but you know the difference.

00:11:55.160 --> 00:11:59.260
It was a totally different experience and I didn't get congested like when I drink normal milk.

00:11:59.260 --> 00:11:59.981
I can't breathe.

00:12:00.403 --> 00:12:08.534
This raw milk stuff was just fine well and it's funny like it's like when people go to europe I eat all the bread and eat all the cheese that I want and I don't feel horrible at all.

00:12:08.534 --> 00:12:11.446
And it's like if I eat it here, forget about it.

00:12:11.446 --> 00:12:15.504
Because you look at the ingredients list and it's completely bonkers.

00:12:15.504 --> 00:12:26.573
Like I always tell people rule of thumb when there's a label under seven ingredients and if they have ingredients on there that look like it came from a chemistry lab, chances are it was made in a lab, so don't eat it.

00:12:26.573 --> 00:12:29.349
Like it has to be a whole food ingredient.

00:12:29.349 --> 00:12:32.971
So it's like if you know where the flour is sourced, that's even better.

00:12:32.971 --> 00:12:35.369
It's like we buy local noble bread.

00:12:35.820 --> 00:12:37.745
Like he loves the sourdough.

00:12:37.784 --> 00:12:39.489
They're so good, so good.

00:12:39.489 --> 00:12:41.341
Same thing those are farmer's markets Same thing.

00:12:41.341 --> 00:12:42.563
Yeah, same farmer's market, same thing same thing.

00:12:42.585 --> 00:12:44.208
It's a few ingredients, very few ingredients.

00:12:44.208 --> 00:12:44.730
They're on.

00:12:44.730 --> 00:12:51.383
They have like a simple ingredient list on their packaging and it's, they tell you exactly what's in it and it's funny.

00:12:51.383 --> 00:12:59.682
That's why, like, so many people are like homemade is better, it's like yeah, because you know exactly what's going to go bad in like four or five days which is what you want to do, right?

00:12:59.741 --> 00:13:01.745
yeah such a good point yeah well it.

00:13:01.765 --> 00:13:18.807
It's funny because John Jay's dad came over from Holland and he said one of the biggest surprises for him when he came from Holland was that you go to a supermarket and you buy groceries, because his family would buy groceries every two to three days, exactly what they needed for those days.

00:13:18.807 --> 00:13:19.881
So they had.

00:13:19.881 --> 00:13:27.708
The eggs weren't ever in the refrigerator and the bread and everything we're talking about it was just fresh, yeah, easy.

00:13:28.441 --> 00:13:30.427
So did you cure your problems.

00:13:31.249 --> 00:13:32.051
Almost all of them.

00:13:32.051 --> 00:13:36.129
The only one I still have to work on is Hashimoto's, and that one's pretty tough.

00:13:36.149 --> 00:13:37.030
That's thyroid right.

00:13:37.251 --> 00:13:44.892
Yeah Well, actually, no, hashimoto's is just autoimmune, so it attacks your thyroid, but it is part of your immune system.

00:13:44.892 --> 00:13:48.105
Autoimmune, so it attacks your thyroid, but it is part of your immune system.

00:13:48.105 --> 00:13:50.493
It does impact your thyroid to where it can trigger hypothyroidism, which a lot of women don't.

00:13:50.493 --> 00:13:51.941
Just they don't know about that.

00:13:51.941 --> 00:13:58.825
Um, so I actually figured that one out because I did my own research on it you diagnosed yourself I.

00:13:59.004 --> 00:14:04.565
I kind of diagnosed myself, because even my first naturopath didn't directly diagnose it.

00:14:04.565 --> 00:14:09.145
She found my thyroid issues but I was like, yeah, there's something else going on here.

00:14:09.145 --> 00:14:15.731
So I actually picked up the book by Isabella Weintz which was Hashimoto's protocol, and I was like this is exactly what I have.

00:14:15.731 --> 00:14:23.585
I knew it like right when I started reading it and once I started in like integrating her protocols, I started to feel way better.

00:14:23.585 --> 00:14:32.365
So I only had to do hormone therapy for probably two years and then I weaned off of it and then I haven't gone on it since.

00:14:32.365 --> 00:14:34.985
I had my explant surgery, which was pretty awesome.

00:14:36.383 --> 00:14:36.504
Wait.

00:14:36.504 --> 00:14:38.610
So hormone therapy, is that testosterone, estrogen?

00:14:38.940 --> 00:14:42.967
No, I just did HRTs, so it was just the replacement therapies.

00:14:42.967 --> 00:14:46.476
So I was doing armor thyroid.

00:14:46.738 --> 00:14:48.201
Oh, armor thyroid.

00:14:48.381 --> 00:14:48.562
Yeah.

00:14:48.602 --> 00:14:54.594
Yeah, besides the food, what other things do you suggest for women to do?

00:14:54.594 --> 00:15:00.110
Like I, I, I, um, I feel like we're exhausted all the time.

00:15:00.110 --> 00:15:10.461
Yeah, like from when the kids were really little, even now, like they're older and they're self-sufficient, but I feel like I'm so tired from the things that they require of me now at their age.

00:15:10.581 --> 00:15:26.201
Yeah Well, the biggest problem I would say that women don't really want to confront is that we are alone, and that's one of the biggest problems that so many women hate to confront about themselves is that when we are alone, we don't have those communities.

00:15:26.201 --> 00:15:26.503
Like.

00:15:26.503 --> 00:15:32.442
I grew up in a multi-generational house, so my mom had the help of my grandmother.

00:15:32.442 --> 00:15:36.010
She was part of a church, so the church helped out.

00:15:36.010 --> 00:15:37.240
We were part of a youth group.

00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:43.782
We were doing things to where my mom was not the organizer of my entertainment, my sports, my like.

00:15:43.782 --> 00:15:46.711
My mom did not take care of a lot of that stuff.

00:15:46.711 --> 00:15:52.486
She was there, but she had the help of so many women that were also helping her.

00:15:52.486 --> 00:15:53.450
They were her village.

00:15:53.740 --> 00:16:08.562
And that's one of the biggest things I talk about in my book is that we are such a neglected and isolated demographic of moms in today's society because we have this brainwash effect that we have to do it all alone.

00:16:08.562 --> 00:16:11.589
And if you don't do it alone, you're a weak mom.

00:16:11.589 --> 00:16:20.826
And that's kind of what I've gained from just talking to a lot of moms is it's like you have to show this macho-ness about yourself as a mother that you can handle it.

00:16:20.826 --> 00:16:22.009
You can handle the pressure.

00:16:22.009 --> 00:16:25.590
You can handle the stress, even though what kids do nowadays.

00:16:25.590 --> 00:16:33.931
When I think back to what we used to do as kids, it's like my parents were hardly involved in any of my extracurricular activities.

00:16:34.091 --> 00:16:35.839
And now it's like and you come home and it gets dark.

00:16:35.839 --> 00:16:38.105
Yeah, we weren't allowed to come in until it got dark.

00:16:38.125 --> 00:16:42.148
Yeah, there was no, and they never knew where we were Like, where we were like, we have that 360 app.

00:16:42.168 --> 00:16:43.489
We're tracking our kids all the time.

00:16:43.489 --> 00:16:44.870
Right, you know what I mean.

00:16:45.049 --> 00:16:52.355
Like I know when they they're in college and I know when they go to bed at night because I can see oh kemp's on emerson, oh jake's in his apartment.

00:16:52.436 --> 00:17:00.605
It's so terrible, but I'm like I have peace when I know that they're yeah, same for me with our kids ride their bikes and, like our kids, we're gonna go to target and I'm like they'll ride their bikes.

00:17:00.605 --> 00:17:05.896
You know, go through four intersections and bikes and everything, but I'm always on, like my fine mile, like right, they made it.

00:17:05.896 --> 00:17:08.743
They made it to target we're not in the news.

00:17:08.964 --> 00:17:10.648
I love it when you say you're multi-gen.

00:17:10.648 --> 00:17:11.592
What nationality are you?

00:17:11.592 --> 00:17:14.365
Italian okay, see, I'm half also half mexican.

00:17:14.365 --> 00:17:23.769
Yeah, it's very mexican very family, yeah, yeah, hey, I I'm gonna make a a weird statement, but I feel that I can cure your autoimmune issues.

00:17:24.191 --> 00:17:25.211
Give it to me, let's go.

00:17:25.211 --> 00:17:26.574
It's going to be today, let's go.

00:17:26.574 --> 00:17:27.035
You know what?

00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:32.231
I'm going to give you the key to it and I'm going to say it's the stem cells that I was telling you about, oh yeah.

00:17:32.741 --> 00:17:33.403
So autoimmunity.

00:17:33.403 --> 00:17:43.645
There's many autoimmune diseases and a friend of mine he's 34 years old he has had pancreatitis and ulcer colitis, which I think are autoimmunes, since he was 16.

00:17:43.645 --> 00:17:49.809
Every year that dude would go in the hospital for two weeks and be almost dead Every year since he was 16.

00:17:49.809 --> 00:17:50.809
He's 34 years old.

00:17:50.809 --> 00:17:55.874
I talked him into spending the money to go with us to Cancun to get stem cells.

00:17:55.874 --> 00:17:57.234
It was two years ago.

00:17:57.234 --> 00:18:01.717
He got stem cells and, having what he has, he could not have spicy food.

00:18:01.717 --> 00:18:04.884
It's terrible, I don't want't you know it, just it's terrible.

00:18:04.884 --> 00:18:05.606
It's.

00:18:05.606 --> 00:18:06.490
I don't get graphic but it's terrible.

00:18:06.490 --> 00:18:07.271
So he went got stem cells.

00:18:07.271 --> 00:18:12.751
That afternoon after stem cells the doctor said let's go to this mexican food restaurant and go eat some food.

00:18:12.751 --> 00:18:15.260
And chris says I can't, I can't eat that stuff.

00:18:15.260 --> 00:18:16.743
Doctor said you'll be fine.

00:18:16.743 --> 00:18:18.970
He went ate that mexican food.

00:18:18.970 --> 00:18:20.252
Never had a problem.

00:18:20.252 --> 00:18:25.392
It's been two years he's been off meds, hasn't gone back back to the hospital and I'm getting goosebumps telling you this.

00:18:25.392 --> 00:18:29.951
He's been completely changed from one stem cell treatment for autoimmune issues.

00:18:30.112 --> 00:18:30.291
Wow.

00:18:30.291 --> 00:18:37.487
So I've heard there's a difference between the stem cells here and the ones you can get like maybe in Mexico.

00:18:37.527 --> 00:18:44.967
the embryonic Explain that maybe they're from the placenta of a newborn, yeah Right, and they don't really know what they are just yet.

00:18:44.967 --> 00:18:47.250
Umbilical cord, umbilical cord, umbilical cord or placenta.

00:18:47.269 --> 00:18:48.872
Yeah, not placenta, Sorry umbilical cord.

00:18:48.892 --> 00:18:51.395
Sorry, wait a minute, hold on, what are you getting?

00:18:51.395 --> 00:19:03.974
I'm like, what are you getting over there?

00:19:03.974 --> 00:19:05.817
No, and it's just a game changer what it goes.

00:19:06.097 --> 00:19:07.138
We're going to cabo in a few months.

00:19:07.138 --> 00:19:07.579
Maybe we'll go down.

00:19:07.579 --> 00:19:07.900
They have.

00:19:08.862 --> 00:19:13.050
They have one in cabo, but interestingly enough, we were at a seminar.

00:19:13.050 --> 00:19:23.249
John jay was hosting a stem cell seminar down in cabo um in january and there were several doctors was it dr x which that had an autoimmune?

00:19:23.249 --> 00:19:24.392
Do you follow him on instagram?

00:19:24.392 --> 00:19:24.573
I know?

00:19:24.593 --> 00:19:25.635
um, yeah yeah that had an autoimmune.

00:19:25.635 --> 00:19:26.298
Do you follow him on Instagram?

00:19:26.298 --> 00:19:28.326
I know, yeah, yeah, he had an autoimmune.

00:19:28.326 --> 00:19:29.008
He was with it.

00:19:29.008 --> 00:19:30.064
He wouldn't got stem cells with us.

00:19:30.184 --> 00:19:33.768
Issue and he he like, cleared it.

00:19:33.768 --> 00:19:34.549
He's good.

00:19:35.171 --> 00:19:35.732
I've seen Gary.

00:19:35.732 --> 00:19:37.482
Gary was there.

00:19:37.482 --> 00:19:38.084
Oh, Gary.

00:19:38.104 --> 00:19:38.424
That's amazing.

00:19:38.424 --> 00:19:39.207
That's why I had to agree to MC.

00:19:39.207 --> 00:19:39.989
I don't want to.

00:19:40.028 --> 00:19:40.711
That's why I did.

00:19:40.730 --> 00:19:41.092
Greedy MC.

00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:47.569
I don't want to be greedy, yeah, but wait, I want to go back to the women thing, because, being exhausted, what is your suggestion?

00:19:47.569 --> 00:19:48.980
When you're exhausted?

00:19:48.980 --> 00:19:50.867
I go to yoga.

00:19:50.867 --> 00:19:52.507
That's my me hour.

00:19:52.507 --> 00:20:02.075
I do meditation every morning for 20 minutes just so that I start off the day with peace and serenity.

00:20:02.075 --> 00:20:05.608
What are some of the things that you suggest for those?

00:20:05.608 --> 00:20:07.584
Of us that are still exhausted.

00:20:07.784 --> 00:20:13.663
The funny part is you can do all the meditation you want, you can go and seclude yourself all you want.

00:20:13.663 --> 00:20:21.425
You could go on a full week vacation by yourself and you'll still come back and feel exhausted and overwhelmed.

00:20:21.425 --> 00:20:34.525
So the reason I say we have to build a village and create that trust is we were literally just talking about how we are basically stalking our own children because we want to make sure they're safe.

00:20:34.525 --> 00:20:42.163
When you have a community of, it doesn't have to be just women, but like Rick is my community.

00:20:42.163 --> 00:20:56.840
That's how I kind of find my peace and calm, because if I didn't have somebody helping me out, a I wouldn't entrust my kids being safe anywhere Like our kids right now currently.

00:20:56.840 --> 00:20:59.306
Our kids rode their bikes down to a mall that's about three and a half miles from our house on their bikes.

00:20:59.306 --> 00:21:01.807
I haven't once checked in on them.

00:21:01.807 --> 00:21:09.037
They just know to send me messages when they're leaving a spot and getting to a spot, but that's more so to just make sure they don't get hit by cars.

00:21:09.037 --> 00:21:10.744
But it's like it's a gilbert too.

00:21:10.766 --> 00:21:11.752
You know that's a rough community.

00:21:11.772 --> 00:21:29.715
You've heard of the gilbert goons, right, but it's rough but still but still I don't feel like we have to harass, like stalk my kids, because once I have built this community just around my kids and knowing that there are other people out there that are looking out for my kids, I'm less stressed.

00:21:29.715 --> 00:21:35.873
So if it's not just me having to, like, keep on top of my kids' entertainment, trust me, I suck at it.

00:21:35.873 --> 00:21:40.413
Still, I'm horrible at like not being able to de-stress myself.

00:21:40.413 --> 00:21:41.416
I'm pretty bad at it.

00:21:41.416 --> 00:21:44.352
Our lives are chaotic, but if we don't have enough people around us that are helping us feel like, don pretty bad at it.

00:21:44.352 --> 00:21:51.046
Our lives are chaotic, but if we don't have enough people around us that are helping us feel like, don't worry about it, we got it covered.

00:21:51.046 --> 00:21:55.334
We're going to be there for your kids If something happens to your kids, I got you.

00:21:55.334 --> 00:21:57.281
Like if you're out of town, that's fine.

00:21:57.281 --> 00:22:02.115
Like you have to build that community because it does create less stress for you.

00:22:02.877 --> 00:22:07.674
Because I do look back to my household growing up, my mom didn't seem that stressed.

00:22:07.674 --> 00:22:12.252
I know she was, but that was a whole other story because she had a lot of mental issues.

00:22:12.252 --> 00:22:19.836
But it was like she had less stress because my grandfather would drive us places, my grandmother would cook us food Like we had.

00:22:19.836 --> 00:22:24.527
We had multifaceted adults taking care of us all at the same time.

00:22:24.527 --> 00:22:35.115
It wasn't just my mom, and I feel like so many moms like you and me in today's society, we're like wearing 50,000 hats at the same time and we're forgetting that.

00:22:35.115 --> 00:22:38.942
Oh yeah, you can go do something for me.

00:22:39.041 --> 00:22:41.630
Let me ask you, because I ask her all the time.

00:22:41.630 --> 00:22:42.834
I'm like what can I do to help you?

00:22:42.834 --> 00:22:47.093
You have a way harder job than me and I feel like I'm constantly on.

00:22:47.093 --> 00:22:50.260
But I'm like I look at what she does and I'm like I couldn't do that job.

00:22:50.260 --> 00:23:00.871
And so every now and then I'll kind of tap in, you know, like the WWE, and be like hey can I come in?

00:23:00.891 --> 00:23:01.954
Yeah, yeah, and it's like you have to do that.

00:23:01.954 --> 00:23:25.760
And that's the hardest thing for moms in today's society is because we feel like we have to do everything, not to mention, you know, I felt this as a mom, not like really earning my place in society, because no workforce looks at moms as if we are worth a penny, like that's the sad part is, it's because you don't earn a paycheck, so you're not that big of a deal and that's all.

00:23:25.760 --> 00:23:42.273
And it's not to say that that's what society like is like that's not what it, but that's how it does present itself a lot, because there are still men not these guys, I would definitely say not these guys, but there are still men in our society that look at a stay-at-home wife and just sit there and go.

00:23:42.273 --> 00:23:43.598
What do you do all day?

00:23:43.598 --> 00:23:51.701
Like you know, there are those men that still exist out there and it is sad because there's women out there that do the same thing too.

00:23:51.701 --> 00:23:54.739
Well, it must be nice being a stay-at-home mom.

00:23:54.739 --> 00:23:58.013
Yeah, you want to switch lives per day.

00:23:58.233 --> 00:24:04.623
There are days during, when my kids were younger, where I, let's say, I had the day off or she did something.

00:24:04.623 --> 00:24:06.025
One day we even switched jobs.

00:24:06.285 --> 00:24:11.959
We did, we switched jobs and I would never, ever, ever, ever, ever, in a million years ever want to do that.

00:24:11.979 --> 00:24:14.423
We should do that I want to do that we did.

00:24:14.482 --> 00:24:17.053
It was wild, he was terrible at it.

00:24:17.053 --> 00:24:23.304
I wanted my job back really badly Because I was terrible at his job Doing a morning show.

00:24:23.364 --> 00:24:26.287
I missed a lot in the mornings of my kids getting ready for school.

00:24:26.287 --> 00:24:27.816
I never got to really do that.

00:24:27.816 --> 00:24:45.781
Occasionally throughout the 18 years of them growing up, I would be able to do that and it was extremely stressful Getting up, getting them ready for school, making breakfast, taking dogs for a walk, making sure they get to school, make sure they have their backpacks, make sure and I was just like once every couple months I can do it every day, no freaking.

00:24:45.801 --> 00:24:51.946
Like eight phone calls, like eight important phone calls you took and had to process that right there just every day.

00:24:51.946 --> 00:24:53.290
I was mother fucked.

00:24:53.612 --> 00:24:54.454
Yeah, mother fuck.

00:24:54.454 --> 00:24:55.317
Yeah, that's right.

00:24:55.317 --> 00:24:57.284
Yeah, I was like no freaking way, okay, so wait.

00:24:57.284 --> 00:24:59.391
So build a community to help raise your kids.

00:24:59.391 --> 00:25:03.174
Eat food that has seven ingredients or less, right, and what else?

00:25:03.174 --> 00:25:08.560
What else is the key to being a woman after kids and having a healthy life?

00:25:08.701 --> 00:25:11.143
I think she was going to say lots of sex.

00:25:11.323 --> 00:25:12.724
That is actually very important.

00:25:12.724 --> 00:25:17.127
I mean, I'm not going to lie, that's actually very important.

00:25:17.650 --> 00:25:19.721
See, you guys got that on camera right, we got that.

00:25:19.780 --> 00:25:27.730
Okay, hold it to it but it is your relationship with your spouse or anyone that you are bringing into your community.

00:25:27.730 --> 00:25:33.613
Like your relationship needs to be a strong community, like relationship you have sex with the community.

00:25:33.633 --> 00:25:34.693
No, not that level.

00:25:35.494 --> 00:25:56.753
Not that level, that level but no, like relationships, like creating strong bonds with other people and they're like with your spouse, especially if you have kids, is important because your kids are going to learn firsthand how to be in a good, loyal, trusting relationship from what they see on a daily basis.

00:25:56.753 --> 00:26:02.778
You can pound in your kid's head verbally you can't be in this relationship.

00:26:02.778 --> 00:26:05.179
This person's a jerk, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, guess what.

00:26:05.179 --> 00:26:09.897
But if you're in that same kind of relationship with their dad, they're not gonna listen to you.

00:26:09.897 --> 00:26:15.336
They're gonna be like whatever you're in this crazy abusive relationship, why should I learn any different?

00:26:15.336 --> 00:26:21.594
So it's like you have to really work on the relationship you're in, not just for yourself but for your kids.

00:26:21.594 --> 00:26:25.673
You have to make sure it's a supportive relationship because, guess what?

00:26:25.673 --> 00:26:27.178
It takes more than one person to raise a kid.

00:26:27.378 --> 00:26:47.306
Don't know if you're getting that theme right now, but it's like it's it's relationships, but it's also, I feel moms can't forget who they are, because you were a person before you had children and that's the biggest purpose driven thing in life is moms lose who they are.

00:26:47.306 --> 00:27:02.137
Absolutely Like women become a mom and then they completely drift away from who they were before that and it's like it took me probably six years to finally be like okay, I'm getting back into my groove of being who I was supposed to be.

00:27:02.137 --> 00:27:09.385
It took me, I had to take a long pause, but it's like it's okay to be a mom for a segment of life.

00:27:09.385 --> 00:27:19.544
Do you enjoy being a mom field every day, but it is one of the best jobs I would say I've ever had in my life.

00:27:20.125 --> 00:27:21.954
It sucks at times, don't get me wrong.

00:27:21.954 --> 00:27:24.143
It's not all like rainbows and butterflies, it's.

00:27:24.143 --> 00:27:26.090
It's really hard, especially now.

00:27:26.090 --> 00:27:32.103
We have two teenage girls and a pre-teen boy, so we're in that battlefield right now, but it's.

00:27:32.103 --> 00:27:37.382
You know I wouldn't pick anything else in my life right now are girls harder than boys?

00:27:37.402 --> 00:27:40.951
boys, yes, that's what I hear A little bit.

00:27:40.951 --> 00:27:42.715
I feel so blessed that we had three boys.

00:27:43.057 --> 00:27:48.439
There were some days I walk into my daughter's room and I'm like, okay, I'm just walking straight out, yeah.

00:27:49.140 --> 00:27:49.661
But you know what?

00:27:49.661 --> 00:27:55.457
It's nice, though, like I feel I grew up with three girls, um, and so I have three boys.

00:27:55.457 --> 00:28:01.484
But my boys and I have such a great relationship I mean I talk to them every day.

00:28:01.484 --> 00:28:10.729
This one calls me every day at 4.15 his time, 7.15 my time, so I can always count on hearing from him.

00:28:10.729 --> 00:28:14.480
Like Jake, this morning he's in Vegas and I'm like I need a pulse check.

00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:17.779
Just let me know that you're alive and everything's okay.

00:28:17.779 --> 00:28:20.618
So I love that about having boys.

00:28:20.690 --> 00:28:21.933
What about their dating life?

00:28:21.933 --> 00:28:22.816
What's your take on that?

00:28:22.816 --> 00:28:23.577
How do you feel about that?

00:28:24.058 --> 00:28:24.862
Well, I love that.

00:28:24.862 --> 00:28:29.561
Well, we only have one child that has a girlfriend right now, and she's amazing.

00:28:30.713 --> 00:28:31.436
She's sweet and young.

00:28:32.150 --> 00:28:40.137
The little guy's a little bit of a player and he's off to college in August.

00:28:40.238 --> 00:28:44.095
Ohust, oh boy he was sneaking out of our doggy door in the middle of the night to go to girls houses.

00:28:44.115 --> 00:28:49.396
Yeah, it was a little much to find them on security cameras that's a problem when you have big dogs, right?

00:28:49.396 --> 00:28:50.861
Big exits for kids.

00:28:50.941 --> 00:28:54.576
Oh, and the dog the retriever rats him out every time.

00:28:54.576 --> 00:29:06.624
Every time he, that kid, does something wrong in our house, the retriever is barking like crazy and I come down and I and I'm like, oh my God, he's gone, and then he's smart enough to leave the phone so that we can't track him.

00:29:06.663 --> 00:29:07.547
The phone says he's home.

00:29:07.547 --> 00:29:08.549
The phone says he's home.

00:29:08.549 --> 00:29:10.115
The dogs in the bed say he's not home.

00:29:10.115 --> 00:29:12.000
That's hilarious.

00:29:12.101 --> 00:29:18.417
Yeah, but you know, also back to your, I learned this early on and that values are caught, not taught.

00:29:18.417 --> 00:29:35.541
So that's I love that because that's important to us, like we try really hard to be loving parents and loving to each other and work hard at that so that hopefully they'll go off into the sunset with those values Show, don't tell.

00:29:35.561 --> 00:29:36.304
I mean, that's what we say.

00:29:36.470 --> 00:29:38.090
Values caught, not taught, all of that.

00:29:38.090 --> 00:29:38.873
But show, don't tell.

00:29:38.873 --> 00:29:44.993
I tell people your kids will do everything they see you doing and they'll do almost zero of what you tell them to do.

00:29:45.737 --> 00:29:45.998
Right.

00:29:46.069 --> 00:29:48.313
So let them see you doing epic shit right.

00:29:48.394 --> 00:29:50.760
At the end of the day, cool stuff, exactly yeah.

00:29:54.182 --> 00:29:57.265
So, Right now, pre-sales are on Amazon On.

00:29:57.325 --> 00:29:57.724
Amazon.

00:29:57.744 --> 00:30:01.968
So it's only available through Amazon, but you can go to my website, which is pretty easy.

00:30:01.968 --> 00:30:05.938
It's thereginasteelcom and you can order on that.

00:30:05.938 --> 00:30:09.678
There's a lot of fun little bonuses that we worked our tails off to get.

00:30:11.111 --> 00:30:13.232
Once the pre-sale's over and it's out, it'll be on Amazon.

00:30:13.492 --> 00:30:19.058
Yep, amazon, we're going to try to get it on some shelves for sure, barnes, noble, some of them, some book signings and stuff.

00:30:19.259 --> 00:30:21.080
Oh yeah, well, when you do book signings, let me know.

00:30:21.080 --> 00:30:22.863
I'll promote it any way I can.

00:30:22.903 --> 00:30:25.846
That would be awesome, that would be fun If you buy 10 more copies too.

00:30:25.846 --> 00:30:29.738
Anybody that buys 10 more copies gets direct access to our OnlyFans.

00:30:30.298 --> 00:30:30.800
OnlyFans.

00:30:32.071 --> 00:30:32.775
Stop it.

00:30:32.775 --> 00:30:35.294
No, we're making a one.

00:30:35.294 --> 00:30:40.549
We're making a one, no, right, hey, this is capitalistic society.

00:30:40.549 --> 00:30:41.574
We've got to make money on this.

00:30:41.574 --> 00:30:42.176
Now, what about you?

00:30:42.651 --> 00:30:44.296
The product you and I were talking about, that you were going to launch.

00:30:44.296 --> 00:30:45.097
Is that talkable?

00:30:45.097 --> 00:30:45.819
Can you talk about that?

00:30:45.819 --> 00:30:48.116
Yeah, sure, I was trying to tell my son about it and I forgot.

00:30:48.116 --> 00:30:56.819
I know it was four products.

00:30:56.819 --> 00:30:58.020
Right, You've got the thing for dudes.

00:30:58.040 --> 00:31:00.604
That's awesome, this came out a little bit of boredom.

00:31:00.604 --> 00:31:05.417
When I sold blinds, my blinds company, I thought I was just going to be like, okay, no more businesses.

00:31:05.417 --> 00:31:11.162
A second one, like I'm just and you know my archetype doesn't allow for that way of like just pulling back.

00:31:11.162 --> 00:31:13.712
What really fulfills me is creating, right.

00:31:13.712 --> 00:31:20.702
So, and especially going in and creating in areas I know nothing about having blinders on and saying I know nothing about this.

00:31:20.702 --> 00:31:25.050
I'm not a chemist, I'm not a formulator, but I want to change this for men, right so?

00:31:25.050 --> 00:31:28.039
Yeah, so it's the four products every man uses every day.

00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:42.179
It's your deodorant, it's your toothpaste, it's your soap you know, hair, face, body soap in the shower, and daily moisturizer, and built to 100% standards at EWG, the Environmental Working Group no toxic chemicals, nothing that will mess with your testosterone.

00:31:42.838 --> 00:31:47.962
My view on the men's personal care space is that it's gotten a little bit wacky and out of control.

00:31:47.962 --> 00:32:03.923
Everything's triple berry, bergamot flavor or this superhero thing that you see Overly marketed, sensational, when I believe most men are just like get out of my way, like I'm not in the shower to have a spa day.

00:32:03.923 --> 00:32:08.458
I'm in the shower to just get clean so I can go do the stuff I want to do Right and building this in a real masculine way, right.

00:32:08.458 --> 00:32:15.596
So in a way it says we're gonna ship it to you every 60 days, you don't have to ever think about it, but doing it in a way a little bit absurdist kind of what?

00:32:15.596 --> 00:32:19.619
How liquid death is done with water, right, saying there's a fun way to do this.

00:32:19.619 --> 00:32:26.976
That grabs attention with the marketing, but also the heart of it is it's clean product and it doesn't mess with you.

00:32:26.976 --> 00:32:28.240
And is it available now.

00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:29.244
The soap's done.

00:32:29.244 --> 00:32:32.731
We will be full launch in about eight weeks with our full kit and what's the name of it?

00:32:33.071 --> 00:32:34.173
Regimen RGMN.

00:32:34.653 --> 00:32:37.656
RGMN, so you can go get a target, you can sign up for?

00:32:37.737 --> 00:32:39.258
no, we're direct-to-consumer right now.

00:32:39.258 --> 00:32:45.044
We've entertained some retail opportunities, but I think my expertise is in direct-to-consumer.

00:32:45.044 --> 00:32:47.946
That's what I've been doing for the last 25 years.

00:32:47.946 --> 00:32:58.691
Yeah, I believe you have better control of your marketing and your voice to the customer when you are directly talking to them, as opposed to when you go on shelves and stuff.

00:32:58.691 --> 00:33:02.134
Now Walmart's talking to them, as opposed to when you go on shelves and stuff.

00:33:02.134 --> 00:33:04.576
You know, now Walmart's talking to my customer and I want them to see my voice.

00:33:04.596 --> 00:33:04.976
That's smart yeah.

00:33:04.996 --> 00:33:05.656
Man, that's a congratulations.

00:33:05.676 --> 00:33:15.903
You know it just reminded me of something when you were talking about I remember I went to your Instagram and I saw a video of a guy that I met a couple years ago, and then you just met him last week, devin.

00:33:16.305 --> 00:33:18.165
Devin oh yeah, how did you guys ask him?

00:33:18.165 --> 00:33:19.567
Levesque, Levesque, levesque, yeah.

00:33:25.009 --> 00:33:31.948
And I saw him and he was like opening up one of your safes and pulling out the craziest collectibles that you have, yeah, and I think one of them was in Michael Jackson's.

00:33:31.968 --> 00:33:32.749
Moon man, it was something right.

00:33:42.069 --> 00:33:42.893
You know, I mean when you don't like money.

00:33:42.893 --> 00:33:43.637
I mean at the end of the day, I love what money does?

00:33:43.637 --> 00:33:45.404
I love vacations and fun, doing fun, shit like that, but I just don't like money.

00:33:45.404 --> 00:33:45.626
So what do you do?

00:33:45.626 --> 00:33:51.911
You end up buying batman number one and michael jackson's moon man and like I, I mean I'm the most eclectic collector you've ever met between.

00:33:51.911 --> 00:33:53.472
It started with baseball cards when I was a kid.

00:33:53.472 --> 00:34:09.722
I still have a lot of cards, um but it turned into like oh you know, keanu Reeves, guns from the Matrix are for sale, let's add those, you know, but it's a collection from that and it's all in your safe, or is it prominently displayed somewhere?

00:34:09.742 --> 00:34:13.248
I have multiple safes, safe rooms, triple biometric lock, bam cameras.

00:34:13.248 --> 00:34:15.938
It's like Mission Impossible so how do you?

00:34:15.938 --> 00:34:17.367
Enjoy them oh, they're out.

00:34:17.367 --> 00:34:19.474
I display a lot of it out, yeah and they're out.

00:34:19.474 --> 00:34:21.387
I display a lot of it out, yeah, and they're always readily available to me right there.

00:34:21.387 --> 00:34:22.130
So we've got the video is.

00:34:22.150 --> 00:34:24.338
Devin opens the safe and he's like holding his moon man.

00:34:24.338 --> 00:34:28.480
By the way, what's interesting about the moon man is I work for iHeartMedia.

00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:29.081
That's my boss.

00:34:29.081 --> 00:34:32.780
The guy who's the CEO is also the guy that invented MTV.

00:34:32.780 --> 00:34:35.472
Oh my gosh.

00:34:35.532 --> 00:34:39.396
Well, this is the very first Moon man from the very first MTV Music Awards in 1984.

00:34:39.396 --> 00:34:42.259
And this is the so Michael Jackson's Moon man.

00:34:42.259 --> 00:34:47.503
This was for the for Thriller, for Song of the Year, so this is like the main award.

00:34:47.503 --> 00:34:49.847
This is like the Oscar for Best Picture, right.

00:34:49.867 --> 00:34:51.173
Right as it relates to music.

00:34:51.173 --> 00:34:52.378
Wow, I gotta get a picture of that.

00:34:52.769 --> 00:34:52.949
So Bob.

00:34:52.971 --> 00:34:54.813
Pippin would be crazy over that.

00:34:54.813 --> 00:34:55.675
Bob P, you'd freak out probably.

00:34:55.695 --> 00:35:00.224
Yeah, I mean, it's like so when Michael Jackson died, his estate sold all of his stuff and I mean everything.

00:35:00.224 --> 00:35:03.981
So we've got a pair of his tap shoes and I've got his hats Really From tour.

00:35:03.981 --> 00:35:13.034
But yeah, I mean, so the Moon man was just one of those unique items that came up and said you know, it was the intersection of hmm, I don't like money, that costs money.

00:35:13.255 --> 00:35:15.358
Let's add I don't love money.

00:35:15.358 --> 00:35:17.539
Yeah, it's the most bizarre thing yeah.

00:35:17.539 --> 00:35:18.981
Jeez man.

00:35:19.021 --> 00:35:19.983
That's awesome.

00:35:20.003 --> 00:35:20.322
What about?

00:35:20.342 --> 00:35:20.744
you, Regina?

00:35:20.744 --> 00:35:22.244
Do you collect anything that you put in the safe?

00:35:22.806 --> 00:35:23.445
It doesn't fit.

00:35:23.445 --> 00:35:27.275
No, I collect a lot of old dance shoes.

00:35:27.275 --> 00:35:28.275
That's about it.

00:35:28.275 --> 00:35:29.338
They're my dance shoes.

00:35:29.338 --> 00:35:42.132
He actually he's gone out of his way because he knows I'm a huge old movie like movie musical buff he's.

00:35:42.132 --> 00:35:43.117
He's found a few of fred astaire, gene kelly.

00:35:43.117 --> 00:35:49.358
He actually found my uncle hermy's pan signature and bought it in an auction, which is kind of cool because those don't exist so her great uncle was a choreographer in hollywood.

00:35:49.378 --> 00:35:54.659
He choreographed uh, if you've heard of fred astaire and ginger rogers, and he doubled for fred astaire.

00:35:54.659 --> 00:35:58.637
A lot in a lot of movies you see fred astaire and it's not fred astaire, it's hermes pan right.

00:35:58.637 --> 00:36:02.106
So that's where her choreography background came from, her love for that.

00:36:02.106 --> 00:36:07.960
You know her upcoming in school and going to school for that yeah, but it's, that's what he collects for me.

00:36:08.041 --> 00:36:12.641
He'll find like these old, like ran I don't even know how to look at these auction house.

00:36:12.701 --> 00:36:21.632
I don't know where to find them oh, and I, I know all too well he knows them very well so our house is fun because boxes show up and I'm like what'd you get this time?

00:36:21.652 --> 00:36:24.659
yeah, what's your favorite musical of all time?

00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:26.431
my favorite musical, oh my gosh.00:36:26.431 --> 00:36:33.557


Well, with the new ones coming out, it's really hard because there's so many good new ones, like hamilton is amazing, wicked was awesome.00:36:33.557 --> 00:36:39.539


But my, if I were to go back in time in an old movie musical, I would say I love Top Hat.00:36:39.539 --> 00:36:44.461


That's probably one of my favorites because that was one that he worked on with Fred Astaire.00:36:44.461 --> 00:36:48.490


But there's old movie clips that a lot of people don't know exist, like Me.00:36:48.490 --> 00:36:55.097


And the Ghost Upstairs was one that he did with Fred Astaire, which is one of the very only times you'll see them dancing together.00:36:55.177 --> 00:36:55.778


He's your uncle.00:36:55.998 --> 00:36:56.481


He's my uncle.00:36:56.621 --> 00:36:57.262


And it's Hermes.00:36:57.590 --> 00:36:58.416


Hermes Pan together.00:36:58.436 --> 00:37:01.092


he's your uncle, he's my uncle and it's her me, her me's, pan, her me's, her me's pan, just like peter pan.00:37:01.173 --> 00:37:03.443


Okay, her me's, uh, mine is west side story.00:37:03.443 --> 00:37:05.711


The original west side story my favorite story is a good one.00:37:05.731 --> 00:37:13.760


There was also an old one, I think it was called ships ahoy where he's dancing with with that jerry from tom and jerry.00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:16.210


I remember that when I was one of my favorite movies too.00:37:16.231 --> 00:37:17.092


Oh, I love it.00:37:17.092 --> 00:37:32.771


That is old school right, that is so you found a hermy pan it was you know, listen, we're in enough of these auctions, like they'll have these, you know, secondary and tertiary items that show up that aren't high priced, but they just they're there, right.00:37:32.771 --> 00:37:38.717


They came out in the state and it was like it's mixed in with other stuff and I found one and I was like, okay, we got to buy it right.00:37:38.717 --> 00:37:41.463


So her uncle won an Oscar.00:37:41.463 --> 00:37:42.597


He's won a couple Oscars, right.00:37:42.809 --> 00:37:46.519


Yeah, he had Oscar, emmy, Joffrey Bellay and those are floating around there too.00:37:46.619 --> 00:37:47.710


I'm on the look for that, by the way.00:37:47.710 --> 00:37:51.335


So if anybody knows where Hermes Pan Oscar is, let me know In top dollar.00:37:51.355 --> 00:37:54.978


Do you know what the cast for right now?00:37:54.978 --> 00:37:56.521


The cast, the cast.00:37:56.541 --> 00:37:57.081


I've got a few things.00:37:57.081 --> 00:37:57.902


What do they?00:37:57.922 --> 00:37:58.262


need.00:37:58.262 --> 00:37:59.804


It was all over the news.00:37:59.804 --> 00:38:01.045


Last week I got Biff's hoverboard.00:38:01.065 --> 00:38:01.626


I own that one.00:38:01.626 --> 00:38:02.777


They're looking for the guitar.00:38:03.342 --> 00:38:04.068


Oh, that he ripped with.00:38:04.068 --> 00:38:05.673


They can't find it anywhere.00:38:05.673 --> 00:38:08.782


And the whole cast, michael J Fox freaking Doc.00:38:08.782 --> 00:38:13.193


They're all making videos going, if anyone knows.00:38:13.233 --> 00:38:14.275


We can find.00:38:14.295 --> 00:38:17.760


Well, I can't believe that you actually have stuff from Back to the Future.00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:19.925


Oh yeah, I've got one of the actor's scripts.00:38:19.925 --> 00:38:20.545


I've got that.00:38:20.545 --> 00:38:23.619


We've got a few things I've got a Will and Grace script.00:38:23.860 --> 00:38:28.659


Yeah, what's the most expensive collectible you've purchased?00:38:28.659 --> 00:38:29.360


Probably Batman.00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:30.443


I would say that's got to be.00:38:30.463 --> 00:38:33.257


Yeah, I mean Action Comics number one, which is Superman number one.00:38:33.358 --> 00:38:34.039


You have that one.00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:42.795


I have that one is 23 surviving units or something on planet earth.00:38:42.795 --> 00:38:43.518


Did you go to phoenix fan fusion?00:38:43.539 --> 00:38:44.181


I have no no, you're not, you're.00:38:44.181 --> 00:38:53.152


So next level, yeah, yeah, obviously the most valuable is um, the only remaining prototype of the um apple macintosh computer signed by steve wozniak, so the original apple mac.00:38:53.152 --> 00:39:00.481


What happened was they would build these and um steve jobs was a fanatic about just destroying these before they went to production because he didn't want any of the technology getting out.00:39:00.481 --> 00:39:05.416


But Jobs kept one, steve Wozniak kept one and a couple of other engineers kept one.00:39:05.416 --> 00:39:12.795


So one of these came up for auction five or six years ago maybe, and I was like that's a one-of-one, like that's a collectible.00:39:12.795 --> 00:39:13.336


Is it big?00:39:13.336 --> 00:39:15.451


Yeah, I mean it's got its own little carry bag.00:39:15.451 --> 00:39:16.391


I mean it's got like.00:39:16.391 --> 00:39:24.900


And the way it's distinguished by being prototype is it had the original five and a quarter floppy before they went to three and a half hard disks.00:39:24.900 --> 00:39:33.047


So it's the only Apple Mac that exists with the, or vice versa, maybe it's a hard floppy versus hard, but yeah, signed by Wozniak on the top.00:39:33.166 --> 00:39:33.666


That's nuts.00:39:41.510 --> 00:39:42.472


Is that the only piece of technology you have?00:39:42.472 --> 00:39:44.541


No, I original iphones from 2000s, that's five, six, whenever that year was unopened.00:39:44.541 --> 00:39:49.135


Um, there's maybe 20 examples of those that exist that is so interesting but space and exploration too, is another thing I collect.00:39:49.195 --> 00:40:15.871


I've got, you know, a lot of neil armstrong's original moon landing stuff, so his baseball, his patch where he went to the moon with, I've got his coolest thing I think I have, which I may be able to either prove that the moon landing was real or not that would be, because that that is his handwritten notes on the lunar space module for all the azimuth, and you know math that they did to get that module to land on the moon.00:40:16.634 --> 00:40:19.911


So I'm gonna get that with somebody that knows what the hell to look at one day and be like.00:40:19.911 --> 00:40:20.574


Is this real?00:40:20.574 --> 00:40:25.512


Yeah, so it's his training guide that you flip through, and he's got his own handwritten notes in there too of it.00:40:25.512 --> 00:40:26.235


So did you.00:40:26.235 --> 00:40:28.920


Both are so fast like what the heck?00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:30.710


We don't like money.00:40:30.710 --> 00:40:31.311


She likes money.00:40:31.492 --> 00:40:34.900


I don't yeah, I love money yeah, no, no.00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:35.922


She likes preserving money.00:40:36.351 --> 00:40:39.516


I liked it's preserving money, because you also collect cars.00:40:40.277 --> 00:40:42.019


I have, yes, a lot of cars.00:40:42.019 --> 00:40:42.481


How many?00:40:42.501 --> 00:40:42.942


cars do you have?00:40:43.382 --> 00:40:44.644


I used to have 52, I think.00:40:47.653 --> 00:40:48.795


Now I'm down to, I think, 30.00:40:48.795 --> 00:40:50.079


Have you seen, rob?00:40:50.099 --> 00:40:50.539


Walton's garage.00:40:50.539 --> 00:40:52.242


Oh God, yes, and I got a Rob Walton story for you.00:40:52.242 --> 00:41:05.704


Oh Jesus, I was just there weeks ago.00:41:05.704 --> 00:41:07.016


We're at a political fundraiser um, I won't say who for, because this isn't a political you know thing, but it was for nikki haley.00:41:07.016 --> 00:41:10.548


So, um, we so we're friends with craig and carolyn jackson we're at this political fundraising thing.00:41:10.548 --> 00:41:11.402


I go up to rob walton he's got rob, you know, everybody has their name tags.00:41:11.402 --> 00:41:13.146


He just says rob, right, and I go up.00:41:13.146 --> 00:41:14.347


I start talking to a rob.00:41:14.347 --> 00:41:19.661


I'm like hey, what did you say to him?00:41:19.661 --> 00:41:20.940


You went up and what was your comment?00:41:20.940 --> 00:41:22.400


I don't even remember.00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:26.864


I just remember she said hi, I'm Regina, nice to meet you.00:41:26.864 --> 00:41:28.067


She said what do you do for a living?00:41:28.067 --> 00:41:31.242


And Rob's response was I'm in retail.00:41:31.623 --> 00:41:32.666


Yeah, that's what I asked.00:41:32.686 --> 00:41:41.793


That's what I do, and I looked at her and I said honey, he is retail, he's not in retail.00:41:41.793 --> 00:41:46.657


He's like the OG retail in retail.00:41:46.657 --> 00:41:46.938


Oh gee, retail.00:41:46.938 --> 00:41:48.744


Right, rob's not in retail, he is retail and she goes.00:41:48.784 --> 00:41:49.485


What I said wall, she goes.00:41:49.505 --> 00:41:51.731


I said walmart yeah, I was like oh, walmart, yeah, walmart yeah, I'm the least.00:41:51.931 --> 00:41:53.657


I don't recognize famous people.00:41:53.657 --> 00:41:55.827


I don't know any like I could literally be.00:41:55.827 --> 00:41:58.677


We were at dinner with nick jonas, one of our friends.00:41:58.677 --> 00:42:03.257


We were talking to him after his play and it was hilarious because I don't know much about the jonas brothers.00:42:03.257 --> 00:42:06.869


I don't stalk people on the internet, it's just not what I do.00:42:06.869 --> 00:42:11.764


So I asked him at the table I'm like, how long have you and priyanka been married?00:42:11.764 --> 00:42:16.288


I was like I jokingly said I could google this, but I don't like to internet stalk people.00:42:16.327 --> 00:42:19.096


So can you just tell me how long have you guys been married?00:42:19.096 --> 00:42:20.356


Yeah, I was their first interview.00:42:20.356 --> 00:42:22.159


No, no way.00:42:22.159 --> 00:42:23.599


Oh, wow, really, I'm in their movie.00:42:23.599 --> 00:42:24.701


That doesn't age you at all.00:42:24.701 --> 00:42:25.342


Oh, you are.00:42:25.342 --> 00:42:27.043


It doesn't age you at all.00:42:27.043 --> 00:42:29.666


They've been singing since they were three, I know.00:42:29.846 --> 00:42:30.947


I was their first radio interview.00:42:30.947 --> 00:42:31.907


I think they were 16.00:42:32.248 --> 00:42:33.329


Wow 16.00:42:34.050 --> 00:42:42.626


And we've done a lot of stuff with them, a lot of stuff.00:42:42.626 --> 00:42:48.061


I actually told her I begged their parents, kevin Sr, because we had three boys and they have four boys.00:42:48.061 --> 00:42:50.463


I was like you need to write a book on parenting.00:42:51.016 --> 00:42:51.898


I said please.00:42:51.898 --> 00:42:52.882


That's what she said.00:42:53.103 --> 00:42:57.701


Yeah, yeah, she said the same thing to her mom.00:42:57.701 --> 00:42:58.322


Yeah, nicest people.00:42:58.882 --> 00:43:01.929


Yeah, they were all homeschooled and everything I'm like I need to learn from you.00:43:07.375 --> 00:43:07.858


Please tell me your ways.00:43:07.858 --> 00:43:08.702


Well for me like to have these three boys.00:43:08.702 --> 00:43:09.304


I was always curious to like.00:43:09.304 --> 00:43:11.976


Hopefully, you know like they would grow up and be friends, but they also beat the hell out of each other every day.00:43:11.976 --> 00:43:13.958


So I remember talking to Jonas Brothers at one point.00:43:13.958 --> 00:43:17.242


I was like so when you're you guys, now that you're as old as you are, do you guys fight?00:43:17.242 --> 00:43:25.351


And I'll never forget Joe Jonas said that Nick Jonas took a pencil and stabbed it all the way in his quad and it went all the way through his quad.00:43:25.351 --> 00:43:27.481


And I was like okay, I don't think my kids have done that.00:43:27.481 --> 00:43:34.235


Then we interviewed Ryan Reynolds he's one of four boys too and he said his brother shoved his head through the drywall and poked a hole in it.00:43:34.235 --> 00:43:35.556


I was like okay, that hasn't happened yet.00:43:35.956 --> 00:43:38.599


Thank God, so far We've got to egg.00:43:38.619 --> 00:43:43.824


We don't have the violence, yeah so I feel like we've done a good job as far as keeping the peace in that department.00:43:43.903 --> 00:43:44.545


I have a brother.00:43:44.545 --> 00:43:49.188


We didn't always fight, but you know, we lived in a trailer and he was on this side of the room and I was on this side of the room.00:43:49.188 --> 00:43:51.811


We lived in the same bedroom but we had our twin beds on each side.00:43:51.811 --> 00:43:59.804


But it was a battle, like and he's bigger than me, but we would, you know but we love each other.00:43:59.804 --> 00:44:01.867


I mean like there's no animosity.00:44:01.867 --> 00:44:10.304


I think it's just what you do when your brothers and your kids wait, so you grew up in a trailer grew up in a 14 by 70 trailer in ohio yeah and now you own michael jackson's moon man00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:17.143


you need to write a book.00:44:17.143 --> 00:44:19.625


We're in ohio dayton cincinnati.00:44:19.706 --> 00:44:21.608


So on the Ohio River area.00:44:22.369 --> 00:44:24.170


That's where he started his career WKRQ.00:44:25.014 --> 00:44:25.974


Q102, cincinnati.00:44:25.974 --> 00:44:34.788


Yeah, so, living in this little maybe we talked about this, but I lived in this little town 30 miles east oh, yes, called Shiloh.00:44:34.788 --> 00:44:35.980


Yes, because you went back there.00:44:35.980 --> 00:44:38.664


60 people was our population of our town.00:44:38.664 --> 00:44:41.259


Like my dad ran for mayor one year and he was a landslide loss.00:44:41.259 --> 00:44:42.163


He lost by four votes.00:44:42.163 --> 00:44:42.643


Population of our town.00:44:42.643 --> 00:44:44.266


Like my dad ran for mayor one year and he was a landslide loss.00:44:44.266 --> 00:44:45.768


He lost like four votes, you know.00:44:45.768 --> 00:44:46.851


So it was like 30%.00:44:46.851 --> 00:44:47.672


But yeah, we grew up there.00:44:47.672 --> 00:44:51.784


My dad worked at power plants so he would go in and when a power plant was built we would move right.00:44:51.784 --> 00:44:52.164


So kind of.00:44:52.164 --> 00:44:56.378


You know these power plants are built on rivers, right, so you move up and down rivers essentially.00:44:56.378 --> 00:44:58.161


So we live in Indiana and Ohio.00:44:58.161 --> 00:45:05.128


Pretty much most of my, I would say, kid teen up until when I went off to my briefs in college life.00:45:05.409 --> 00:45:07.751


Wow, we love Cincinnati.00:45:07.751 --> 00:45:09.918


Yeah, we do I got so fat in Cincinnati.00:45:09.918 --> 00:45:11.603


Yeah, Gold Star Chili, Gold Star Chili no.00:45:11.623 --> 00:45:12.206


Grater's.00:45:12.795 --> 00:45:15.224


Grater's ice cream was the best in the whole world.00:45:15.224 --> 00:45:16.699


We still order it.00:45:16.699 --> 00:45:18.605


The Rose's Pizza I still can't find a pizza.00:45:27.215 --> 00:45:28.177


The closest I see out here is espinados.00:45:28.177 --> 00:45:28.840


Yeah, I still try to find that.00:45:28.840 --> 00:45:30.525


Uh, the roses, I don't know what it sounds like cinnamon, cinnamon, something.00:45:30.525 --> 00:45:32.273


Yeah, it's just so funny because your dad gave us a whole case of the sauce one year.00:45:32.273 --> 00:45:35.423


I'm like, oh yeah, so much sauce well, you know what's funny is?00:45:35.503 --> 00:45:38.655


we went on when we first got there because we had just gotten married.00:45:38.655 --> 00:45:43.818


We went there like three weeks after we got married and we'd never been really away from home.00:45:43.818 --> 00:45:51.670


And so they took us on a tour of food in Cincinnati and they took us to Skyline and they're like, oh, it's chili, but it's kind of a different take on chili.00:45:51.670 --> 00:46:03.494


And we're like, okay, I mean, it was the biggest plate of spaghetti with this chili on top of it yeah and like four bags of cheese on top I was was like what is happening here?00:46:03.514 --> 00:46:07.320


What's that do Like the three-way, the four-way, the five-way, the car right when it's different stuff.00:46:07.961 --> 00:46:11.045


It was insane and then you eat it all and then you don't work out ever.00:46:11.367 --> 00:46:12.192


No, that's what we did, that's true.00:46:12.192 --> 00:46:12.795


No, we never worked out.00:46:12.795 --> 00:46:14.643


I never saw anybody work out in Cincinnati.00:46:21.586 --> 00:46:23.068


I think it's like I think about it.00:46:23.068 --> 00:46:28.371


I don't think at all in my 30s that I ever exercise, or my late 20s, early 30s, because we were moving.00:46:28.371 --> 00:46:31.032


We're in cincinnati, we're in houston, and I see how important it is now.00:46:31.293 --> 00:46:41.644


I mean, you've run marathons, you do crazy stuff, right so you've always been in I mean, I was athletic as a kid and then, much like, I think, a lot of guys stories as you get in your 20s you don't do anything right and same for me.00:46:41.684 --> 00:46:49.092


Like I probably didn't do much from mid or late 20s to right in my early 40s, I would say I, I mean like the.00:46:49.092 --> 00:46:56.704


The road to like Ironman literally started 12 years ago where I got back out and did another 5k and I'm like, okay, I can do a 5k and it was a 10k.00:46:56.704 --> 00:47:04.746


And then it just, you know, when you're hard charging, when you start getting you know kind of latched on to something that's important to you, you're like, okay, I can do more, I can do more, I can do more.00:47:04.746 --> 00:47:08.969


And then it, you know, turned into iron man triathlons and running marathons around the world.00:47:09.010 --> 00:47:11.440


So yeah, am I allowed to tell him what your nickname was?00:47:11.440 --> 00:47:12.483


What?00:47:12.503 --> 00:47:13.527


was my nickname.00:47:13.648 --> 00:47:17.480


Our buddy jay gave him a nickname yeah, go and tell him I forget chunky rick.00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:18.362


Oh yeah, that's hard.00:47:18.521 --> 00:47:21.809


I'm 170 now, but I think I was 205 or 210.00:47:24.414 --> 00:47:24.474


So.00:47:24.474 --> 00:47:27.023


I have a little neck and you know pudgy.00:47:28.576 --> 00:47:31.885


Which was funny, because when I met him I was dancing about eight hours a day.00:47:32.106 --> 00:47:32.286


Yeah.00:47:38.222 --> 00:47:39.342


Because I was still going to dance school.00:47:39.342 --> 00:47:40.623


She's ripped, she's super fit.00:47:40.643 --> 00:47:47.251


I don't know a while, but my cousin just yelled at me a couple weeks ago saying you need to set up your dance floor and get out there for at least an hour a day.00:47:48.815 --> 00:47:52.143


I was like fine she's incredible Ballet, jazz, tapping, she does it all.00:47:52.143 --> 00:47:53.346


Do your kids dance too.00:47:54.068 --> 00:47:54.367


We do.00:47:54.367 --> 00:48:11.929


Well, our oldest was a gymnast and then our second daughter she's actually a theater girl, so she, her tap is crazy to watch because she didn't start tapping until two or three years two years ago, maybe, yeah and she's 13 now or 14, yeah, but yeah, she's 14 now.00:48:11.929 --> 00:48:21.547


But it's so funny to watch her tap because I'm like man you dance just like hermes too like it's so crazy because she picks it up so quickly and it's not all of our kids do actually.00:48:21.547 --> 00:48:22.271


What do you do for exercise?00:48:22.291 --> 00:48:23.494


if you're eating, do you do for exercise?00:48:23.494 --> 00:48:27.164


If you're eating right, you have to exercise right, and you did hell on the hill.00:48:27.465 --> 00:48:38.159


Yeah, well, a majority of my exercise is the neat, like most moms, is the non-exercise activity, whatever that last word is I can't ever remember it.00:48:38.159 --> 00:48:39.681


No, it's like tech, blah, blah, blah.00:48:39.681 --> 00:48:45.760


But it's like tech, but it's like, literally, I'm never sitting down.00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:46.403


I don't sit down during the day.00:48:46.403 --> 00:48:47.990


I am constantly moving around, I'm picking up stuff, I'm cleaning the backyard.00:48:47.990 --> 00:48:48.755


We've got chickens.00:48:48.775 --> 00:48:51.322


I take care of the chickens she still goes for a little run.00:48:51.322 --> 00:48:54.016


Yeah, hikes, and yeah, because I see your runs, you post them.00:48:54.036 --> 00:48:57.045


Sometimes they're like no freaking way like yeah, he's crazy.00:48:57.606 --> 00:48:58.597


No, I'm not at that level.00:48:58.597 --> 00:48:59.880


No, no, do you?00:48:59.900 --> 00:49:04.798


drink coffee yes, you do, because I just read an article about how great it is for women to drink coffee it is.00:49:04.858 --> 00:49:06.824


It's actually good for your brain too what do you like?00:49:06.864 --> 00:49:07.416


what a cup of?00:49:07.416 --> 00:49:08.197


What do you make it yourself?00:49:08.197 --> 00:49:08.778


Where do you get?00:49:08.798 --> 00:49:11.405


it I, so I literally start my day off.00:49:11.405 --> 00:49:18.659


Every morning I get rice coffee, my mushroom coffee I drink first thing in the morning after my cup of water, and then I have um purity.00:49:18.659 --> 00:49:22.724


I order purity it whole beans, we just grind them in our coffee grinder.00:49:22.724 --> 00:49:32.481


But I get it on Amazon because it's a clean, organic, third-party tested, because I actually started noticing I would get headaches from coffee and we were drinking the Nespresso pods.00:49:33.476 --> 00:49:41.137


Yeah, and you heard about what these Nespresso pods can get Like they can get mold in them, and you don't even know that there's mold inside your pods, depending on the climate they're sitting in or whatever.00:49:41.137 --> 00:49:43.942


But you've got ground coffee in a pod.00:49:43.942 --> 00:49:48.409


It's air sealed, but if it's setting in the climate, same as a Keurig.00:49:48.409 --> 00:49:49.250


Right, yeah, same as Keurig.00:49:49.614 --> 00:49:56.983


And the coffee beans they use are full of pesticides and gross chemicals which I have found I'm extremely sensitive to them.00:49:56.983 --> 00:50:08.043


I've noticed that with my wine, because I'll drink red red wine, not like all the time, but when I do, I always drink that's the secret.00:50:08.043 --> 00:50:09.385


That's how you keep afloat.00:50:09.606 --> 00:50:18.556


Right came in last night, like after like we came back from sedona last night and like she was in the house for like five minutes and there's a glass of wine, I'm like.00:50:18.556 --> 00:50:19.697


I mean it was long drive home.00:50:19.717 --> 00:50:19.876


We're on.00:50:19.876 --> 00:50:20.217


I want to watch.00:50:20.217 --> 00:50:24.001


You know, I was like, yeah, she's driving back and I drove back or I flew back with my son and I'm like I mean, it was a long drive home, the Tony's were on.00:50:24.021 --> 00:50:24.320


I want to watch.00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:34.210


You know, yeah, she's driving back and I flew back with my son and I'm like we'll beat you guys home and the flight is 26 minutes from Sedona and we're at home and they're still at, like Berry Divine getting acai bowls.00:50:35.030 --> 00:50:36.492


Yeah, that was a long drive home.00:50:37.074 --> 00:50:39.460


It's the best right, acai bowls are good for you, right?00:50:39.460 --> 00:50:40.342


Is it healthy?00:50:40.342 --> 00:50:40.842


I don't know.00:50:40.842 --> 00:50:42.525


I know it's a sugar bomb.00:50:42.586 --> 00:50:47.458


I think it's sugary right, but every time I have one I'm just like this is the cleanest I can be eating, because I'm trying to.00:50:47.478 --> 00:50:48.661


There's a place that opened up by us.00:50:49.739 --> 00:50:51.184


It's called Playa Bowls and they have.00:50:51.184 --> 00:50:52.431


Yeah, izzy loves them.00:50:56.579 --> 00:51:00.842


And then they got coconut base and then I got a bowl and I thought it tasted so sugary.00:51:00.842 --> 00:51:03.864


I thought this can't be good for you and I haven't been back since.00:51:03.885 --> 00:51:05.565


But if you tell me it's good for you, I'm going to go back.00:51:05.565 --> 00:51:06.686


It's good once in a while.00:51:06.686 --> 00:51:07.788


It's kind of like ice cream.00:51:07.788 --> 00:51:11.952


I'm not going to tell people to swear off ice cream, but once in a while it's a good treat, right?00:51:14.454 --> 00:51:17.641


Playable is one of the sponsors of the podcast.00:51:17.721 --> 00:51:18.041


Yeah.00:51:18.041 --> 00:51:26.202


Leslie calls those things, because there was a truck that came to Jesse's event that had a banana base and she calls it nice cream, yeah.00:51:26.262 --> 00:51:26.864


Nice cream.00:51:26.905 --> 00:51:27.527


Nice cream.00:51:27.715 --> 00:51:28.840


Those are actually really good.00:51:28.840 --> 00:51:30.623


I actually love banana ice cream.00:51:30.804 --> 00:51:32.000


Yeah, I thought it was really good.00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:33.920


I've never had the banana base before.00:51:34.141 --> 00:51:35.304


Yeah, it's easy too.00:51:35.304 --> 00:51:38.945


You just cut up a banana, freeze it for 30 minutes and then blend it up.00:51:38.945 --> 00:51:40.358


Yeah Boom, did you?00:51:40.398 --> 00:51:41.380


just play wiffle ball at Jesse's.00:51:41.380 --> 00:51:42.463


Did he do that in the side yard?00:51:42.463 --> 00:51:48.623


Mm-mm, we always have this wiffle ball game before Hell in the Hill and it's 100 guys will step up to the plate and it's just.00:51:48.623 --> 00:51:50.409


I don't know how you eliminate.00:51:50.409 --> 00:51:53.621


You get to keep rolling back around and getting hits.00:51:57.682 --> 00:52:12.601


You hit until people trying to catch your ball essentially like it's getting hits hard right and then it'll rotate through and and the kids usually crush the adults, of course, at it, but it's fine, yeah well, I want to say thank you guys for coming and being on our podcast.00:52:12.681 --> 00:52:13.264

But this she, this needs to be in a million women's hands like it's that good, it's incredible, like she did an amazing job.00:53:03.942 --> 00:53:04.724


So your book is out.00:53:04.724 --> 00:53:05.485


You have a book out.00:53:05.485 --> 00:53:06.534


I've had a book out for a while.00:53:06.534 --> 00:53:07.498


It's called 30 days to launch.00:53:07.918 --> 00:53:20.179


Um, it's been out for five or six years now about building a business 30 day, basically war plan to going from like I just have an idea to help me have a really shitty business in 30 days, which is what it will be.00:53:20.259 --> 00:53:22.963


She's starting a business, yeah yeah, do you guys have a dog?00:53:23.583 --> 00:53:35.565


oh, we do yeah, so we have love pup foundation oh, I know yeah dog shelter and over the last 11 years I have figured out that we can spay, neuter and we can microchip all day long.00:53:35.565 --> 00:53:44.300


But what's happening is people are still turning in their dogs after they um, after they adopt them, and the problem is is they're confused.00:53:44.300 --> 00:53:50.938


So they go to the internet, they try to figure out what to do with their dogs and they can't figure it out because there's 45 different.00:53:51.219 --> 00:54:02.900


You know responses to what they what they're asking, and so they turn the dogs back in and we have a dog that's coming in tomorrow because it it nipped at an eight-year-old.00:54:02.900 --> 00:54:04.760


They've had the dog for eight years.00:54:04.760 --> 00:54:05.322


I'm like what?00:54:05.322 --> 00:54:07.842


Somebody wasn't watching the dog.00:54:07.842 --> 00:54:14.347


Something happened, and if you weren't watching what's happening, maybe you could have gone to Love Pup Plus and figured out.00:54:14.347 --> 00:54:15.929


This is what you can do.00:54:16.369 --> 00:54:17.590


So it's Love Pup Foundation.00:54:17.590 --> 00:54:21.172


She started Love Pup Plus, which is an app.00:54:21.592 --> 00:54:22.413

That's so cool.00:55:01.481 --> 00:55:10.282


Yeah, so you're just matching dogs with foods and temperament and what to expect, because you're right, like after 80 years, something weird doesn't show up with a dog in a family.00:55:10.322 --> 00:55:12.280


Right what to expect when you're expecting.00:55:12.461 --> 00:55:13.204
