It's the virtue. Uh, intern Leah is here and she's got her own at Mike music. I'm not expecting that. Uh, uh, are you like a closet hip hop fam? Very in the closet. Oh yeah. Yes, yes. Uh, anytime. I mean, I just have to describe Leah. She is like so like quiet and sweet. She is a Georgia Tech student. Super smart. She really shouldn't be interning for us. Jenna said that to us many times. She's like, Leah's too smart to be here. Should we let her go? Like we should just combine all of our IQs and hers is much higher. Um, literally. Pop series. Like, yeah, she really shouldn't be interning for us. And so, and she has some her glasses and she's very studious. So, don't hurt hip hop music as her, uh, I'm a stereotype. I have my music. It was not a shocking. But, you know, I've learned over the years, these, these are the type of women that you don't, you just have to watch. You have to watch. You have to watch. And you just don't know what's on the inside trying to get out. Yes, there's a balance. Balance the life going on and it's in there somewhere. They're all tied.

So, Leah here, I certainly not get paid a whole bunch of money to be, uh, an intern on the birch show. In fact, we're paying her one, two, three, nothing. Okay. Um, so she's making money outside of the birch on one way she's doing that. Obviously, uh, you got to find these small jobs in order to pay bills is babysitting. And she got one family. She's a little nervous about. Yeah, they're, we're actually kind of like, I wouldn't say family friends, but our families are very acquainted with another and the kids are just awful. Like, they're awful. Like, have you ever seen the movie Dumb and Dumber? Where, well, it's dumb and Dumber or, or like Bob Sagitt goes in the bathroom. There's just poop everywhere. That actually happened to me. And I was like, should I just leave now or how old are the kids? I paid four and two. Why was Bob Sagitt in their bathroom? Don't ask. Like Jen said, you're much smarter than anybody else in the room. So you got a four year old and you got a two year old and they're like just out of hand. They're, they're terrible.

And I can't take my eyes off them for like more than five seconds apiece. Are they broken something or they made a mess somewhere or it's just, it's disgusting. And it makes me not want to have kids. Is there pressure because it's family friends? Yes. That's the only reason why I stole a babysit for them. The stakes are totally raised. And if it's, so does that, you can't say this, but I'll ask the others. Does it make a statement about the way that the parents are raising the kids? I would judge the parents based on the kids. Yes. Yeah, definitely. It doesn't sound like they have any discipline whatsoever or a total children. Spawn of Satan. And you have other families, you have other families to compare it to. Yes. You babysit for a lot of families. So you have children that are easy and well behaved and nice to babysit. And that's the comparison. Typically the little girls are very nice to babysit because they're sweet, but the little boys, the ones that step in their poop. Torne. Yes. They do. Don't step in your pocket. They don't step in it. They revel in it. They do. They wear it like war paint, man.

They love it. It's nasty. I have way too sensitive of a stomach to deal with it. So how often does this family ask you to babysit? I would say two to three times a month. And I've turned them down the past four times. So I'm hoping they get the clue, but they haven't. And it's just awkward. What excuses do you use when you tell them now? It happens. It just so happens. It's my best friends birthday like every weekend that they call me. Or another kind of grocery. Oh my god. I always have plans. Busy, busy business. She's so popular. She has so many girlfriends. I don't have best friends. Yeah. And I bet they won't get the hint because since you're a family friend, on the other end, they can trust you, you know, and they don't want to have to find somebody else. As a babysitter, if you were going to give advice to parents, as to what is the red flags of your babysitter, not just, she just doesn't want to watch your kids anymore. So stop calling. Is it three times? Is it four times? Or what are the catch phrases that parents should listen for if they know their

babysitter is breaking up with them? I've broken up with families before by saying I want to concentrate on school. Okay. Just being kind of like, you can tell when someone's being sincere when they're not like, oh, I'm really sorry that I can't. I love your kids. And they're like, oh, dang. So I love the birthday. So I'd like to. I love your kids, but I can't. Yeah. That's, that's more genuine, I guess. And if you really want to like make the money, because it is good money for the most part, unless it's a bad feeling of his $5 an hour, because that's happened to me before. But if you really want to make the money, you'll find a way to make it happen more than canceling three or four times in a row. Should you assume that as the parents should, the parent assume that if the babysitter isn't available three straight times, it's a breakup. That's pretty safe to say. Okay. Three is the magic. That's funny. Okay. So are you realizing that you and Stacey have ever been broken up with? No, but and this is going to sound very arrogant, but I think my kids are pretty easy, but I think every parent thinks that about their kids. Absolutely. Well, actually, no, I think there's some people who call up and say, yeah, I got tough kids.

Like I bet we can get people to call up and it meant I've had babysitters disappear. No, I want to hear the mother that says, my kids are horrible. We won't get a call. We won't get anybody. If you know, if you know that your kids are really tough to babysit, then give us a call right now. This will be the loneliest five minutes that we have ever spent on the radio. One eight seven seven five eight eight burnt B. Archie. One eight seven seven five eight two three seven eight. Tell us such a kids are crappy. Meredith called before we asked for that. Hey, Meredith, good morning. You are on the virtue. Hi, I love you guys a show. Thank you. I wanted to tell a story. I babysit all the time. I'm a student and so I babysit like full time for multiple different families. And I had a family that I had set up a deal with and was supposed to babysit twice a week for them and went into this, went into it. And these kids were the worst kids I have ever seen. Talked back to me, told me they hated me.

Absolutely horrible. And I was actually trying to think the whole day. I was trying to think of a way to get out of it. I was like, what can I say to them? What can I do to just leave? And later that day they went to pay me. They were specifically me to know. So I was supposed to get like 40 bucks for this. The dad hands me a hundred. And I was like, hmm, maybe I'll stick around. Maybe I'll. I knew. Later on babysitting for them more and more. They've done that multiple times now. And I've actually had a few conversations with the mom about her telling me how horrible her kids are. So they know that they got to throw the cash round in order to not have to train a new babysitter every two weeks. I'm so kidding. I mean, these kids I've never had kids like this. And I've probably babysit for over 50 kids total in my years of doing it. Are you still babysitting? Yes, I'm actually on my way to babysitter right now. Yeah. Hey Meredith, here's what we've done. Producer Tracy just started a Twitter account.

It's at TBSCitter at TBS, the birch show, Citter. And what we want you and other babysitters to do from now on is we want you to tweet to that that account while you're babysitting how bad the kids are. And we will read those tweets anonymously on the air. So the parents will never know it's you guys. But as they're doing crappy things, go ahead and tweet about it. All right, it's at TBSCitter, S-I-T-T-E-R. Okay? Sounds good. I was just like the intern. I've had poop on the walls. I've had puke on the walls. I've had I mean, everything you can think of. Yeah, nasty. See, when it's your own kid, it's different than when somebody else is kid. Totally. Poor Jane Hobbie has been struggling with a stomach bug all morning. This is the topic that we get into. All right, Meredith. Maybe you can tweet today if anything goes out of hand. All right. Thank you. Thanks. All right, this goes for any babysitter. When you're babysitting, just go ahead. Don't take it out on the kids. Just tweet to at TBSCitter.

And we're going to read those from time to time on the birch show. Here is Jade. Good morning. You were on the birch show. Hi. Hey, I was calling to tell a story from when I was younger. My brother was actually a horrible, horrible child of babysitter 4. I only on the other hand was a little bit better. But he locked me and my friends and the babysitter actually, probably a 19-year-old, he was a guy in a tiny little closet for about two hours. Locked it in there with a chair. And he was to say we didn't have that babysitter again. My parents were a little bit freaked out after that. But yeah, that's what my brother did. Stories that you don't tell the next babysitter. No, right? Hey, now how come you're in the market for a new babysitter? Ah, the other guy moved away. Moved away? Wow, he got locked in the closet by the way. I mentioned we pay a hundred bucks. Here is Ashley. Hey, Ashley, good morning. You're on the birch show. Hello. Good morning. I just wanted to let you guys know that I will admit that my son is horrible. And recently we had my little cousin babysitter him.

And she wouldn't get him milk fast enough. He's three years old, by the way. He went upstairs in my bathroom. Opened the window himself. One of my cover, got nail polish, opened it and threw it on top of her white equinox that she just bought. Oh, car. Oh, that's the car. I was outside when I got home from work with a Q-tip trying to get red paint off the top of her new car. He's horrible. He's actually like taking a crap on the stairs before because she wouldn't get up fast enough and take him in the bathroom. And he's three. Oh, wow. On purpose and come tell you he did it. He's horrible. We had to move my mother to Atlanta to watch him for us because honestly, if you're not related to him, if you're not a parent, he doesn't care what you do, what you say, he's not being any mind. Wow. And he says very vindictive things. He's so bad. And how much more do you have to pay then like the your neighbor? Can you move family in the town? Your mom moved family in the town. Her mom moved in the town. I don't think anybody would take us. Somebody said I don't think anybody would watch him. I really don't think.

I think five minutes into it, he's so cute and he's so little. You would think that he's just the biggest sweetheart because he'll tell you how much he loves you even if he doesn't even know you. But as soon as we leave and you watch him, he does some of the most ridiculous things that you can never imagine would happen with a child. Who am I but what if I command that she or recommend her rather? I command I command. I command that she actually admitted it because I'm shocked. And mother would be nothing only one. Hey, Christie, good morning. You're on the birch show. Hi. Hey, how you doing? Good. How are you? I have a couple of hard kids. And you know it. So is this horrible kid poker? Yeah, she's got to. I have two foreign three-year-old boys and they're insane. What does everybody know? That's why everybody's probably listening to it. This is going, whoa, she's calling. But my sister and my mother hate to watch both of them at the same time because they're just crazy. The energy they have is ridiculous. Jumping off the couch, you know, the poopy jokes is funny. That's hilarious. They just go poopy anywhere they want. P, anywhere they want. And it's just, you know, I think it's funny.

Yeah, it's the greatest thing in the world. If you're that age, I mean poop is the funniest thing ever. And it comes in every conversation. It makes its way to every single conversation. Why is that? I don't know, I have no idea. It's God to be a boy saying, I don't hear any girl stories doing that. Here is the girl they are. Here is Lauren. Hey, Lauren, good morning. You're on the birch show. Hello. Hello. Okay. I have a three and a half year old little boy, his name is Ollie. And I have to pay my own sister $12 an hour to babysit him. How much? Sister $12 an hour. What's the going right normally for babysitter? She watches my two nephews for $10 an hour. So you have to give her an actually, you have to give her a 20% increase. Yes, for one child. You probably come in home from whatever you're doing early, so you don't have to pay the extra cash. Exactly. Yes, she's always calling. She's like, are you a Muslim with work? When are you going to be home? This is horrible. There is that I've been told that there is that sort of like, scary walk from your car into the house, because you know the house is going to be a mess when you walk in,

when the babysitter is there, but you just don't know how messy it's going to be, so that four minutes of anxiety, or four seconds of anxiety from your car into the house, is the worst. How long do you sit in the car before you get out? Like, take a look. You meditate. Take a couple of times. Take a couple of times. Take a look at the car. Trace says I might have messed up this TBS sitter thing. We're going to ask babysitters to email us, and we were going to give them the password or something. Is that how we're going to do that? Yeah, that's how they use the account. Okay, so they shouldn't tweet at TBS sitter. Because their name, and their picture would pop up if I did that way. Gotcha. So, yeah, so if you're a child care provider, and you want to vent during your child care hours, anonymously. Anonymously email Tracy Tracy with an e at thebertchow.com, or email any of us. We'll make sure she gets it, and she'll write you back with a username and password to this TBS sitter account. And then if you want to follow along, follow that account, and random tweets will pop up from these sitters, you might just say, watching a three-year-old poop in the refrigerator.

Enough said. So that way we can protect your identity. I get it. Okay, so what you'll do is you'll email us today and say, look, I want to be part of this whole thing. We will email you username and password, and then you just tweet as you want while your babysitting, and we'll read along. So you can do that at thebertchow.com. Here, Berchow. This is the Berchow. It's a parenting question, and it's kind of twofold. One, do you think if you are, if you were the earshot of somebody who's cussing in a public place, would you ever ask them to stop cussing if your kids were with you? Like let's say, Well, it's a con-hand, it's not about her frozen embryos. He's just taking care of nothing. I'm around the refrigerator and I cuss. Okay, slide. It's a free. If the breeze is open, we'll like it. Let's say you're sitting at, you know, you're hanging out at Applebee's or whatever, you know, or Olive Garden when you're there, your family, and the other cable, the table right next to you,

they are swearing a lot. Like, and your kids can hear it. Can you say, what would you mind? Not cussing. Okay, this is a difference between who I want to be and who I am, who I want to be, is brave enough to pull like one person away from the table and say something in private, but who I am would just shut up. Okay. Now, if I'm at a baseball game for some reason, there's a whole bunch of drunk people behind me or something like that, and their cussing and my kids are listening to this for a couple of innings, then I think even real me would say something to them. Of course. I'm really like, hey, dude, I got a seven-year-old and a three-year-old up here. Right. Like this is, yeah, you're in a baseball game. Right, I would say something like that. But I think in a restaurant, wouldn't it depend on the age of the people too? If they were your same age, you probably wouldn't say anything, but if they were younger, like if it was a table full of teenagers, do you feel like you could reprimand them for cussing? Yeah, probably so. Yeah, I think that's valid, yeah. Well, here's how, here's the scenario that I was in, and how I was able to distract myself from having any sort of confrontation at all. It really worked out well in my favor.

But if it ever comes up again, Bert, I want you to explain how to handle this situation. Okay. So you're at a restaurant, you hear a bunch of cussing at the table next to you, and you realize that the cussing is coming from a group of kids. They're younger, probably eight to 14-ish. So their parents are around also? Yep. Do you, which is less offensive or more appropriate? Do you say something to the table of kids, or do you say something to the parents who aren't disciplining their kids? I think it might have to deal with the age of the kids. But let's ask this question. 1-877-588-Bert, B-E-R-T-1-877-588-2378. So you're at whatever restaurant, you got a table of eight to 14-year-olds. Their parents are at the same table, or they're sequestered at another table. They're at a different table. So if I was just based on what I saw, it's like maybe three or four couples who don't get together often said, let's get together. So they all chose to go to a restaurant,

and they brought their kids, and the kids got to sit at their own table, and the parents got to sit at their own table. So if you're a parent looking across a restaurant, do you want to see a person, an adult person, talking to a whole table of kids, and whatever, or would you rather have the adult person go over to you as the parent and say, I have to let you know that your kids are being pretty offensive. Parent on parent. Parent good to parents. Yeah, because you can say, because somehow in the beginning of that conversation, you can probably say, look, you guys don't have any idea what's going on over at that table right there, so I don't blame you for that. But I just want to let you know that I'm a parent also, and then I think I try to explain it that way. Now, what if it's obvious to you as you study the parents who you're considering approaching that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree? Because the parents are doing the same thing. They may not care. Oh, yeah. I don't know, like I don't know. I don't know how that can be done. The easy solution that we decided on far too late

is just to tell the server and tell the restaurant manager would take a restaurant thing out of it. What do you do if you see a kid playing on the street and he's doing something rude or like throwing rocks at something and you know where the parents are, you approach the kid or you approach the parent. This is one of these great scenarios that you brought up a couple of weeks ago. Like, how come if you're not doing the offensive thing that you're uncomfortable bringing it to somebody's attention? You shouldn't be, but it's human nature. Right. I want to be the person who is not uneasy at somebody else's offense. Right. And I'm not. And I think very few people are. And if you are one of those people, I like you. Hey, Tonya, good morning. You're on the birch show. Hi. Hi, I was just saying that I've been in the situation like that before. And what I've done is approach the management. But take it. At the management to approach that table. But if you take responsibility to the customer speak comfortable in their environment. Did it work? Yeah. Yeah. The manager went over to them and just excuse me, you know, that could you

glide down a little bit? You're setting some of the other customers. And I don't know if they got a free dessert or something. I don't know. But yeah, but that happened in my case, the management handle it. All right. So you can go write some management and take yourself out of the equation altogether. But if you're in a situation with no management, like if you can see the parent, you can see the kid and the kid's misbehaving. Let's go to a playground. Do your kids still go to playgrounds? Like, let's say there's one kid throwing rocks at another kid or something like that. And you see the parents sitting over on the bench talking on the phone. I think I've told you guys before what I've done in a situation like that. Well, you pushed the kid down the slide. I pinched the kid. Oh, yeah. So still under the arm, just a little bit. It's checked out without committing physical assault on somebody else's child. Let's say the mom sitting over in the corner just chatting away on her cell phone. And the kid's like throwing rocks or pushing another kid. Go right to the kid. If he's that young, I'd go right to the kid. Hey, Jamie, good morning. You're on the birch. First time I saw you guys. I used to be a server at a restaurant. And I came across this problem. Several times. And instead of going straight to the kid, I learned quickly that the kids don't care.

They're going to talk like that no matter what. And as soon as you turn around after a reprimanding them or asking them not to, they're just going to make fun of you to continue what they were doing. But that's straight to the parents. The parents responsibility. And I think that people are too scared to approach the parents these days. They're afraid to say something to parents because they feel like it might not be their place. But if you're not going to say it, who's going to? Yeah, again, this is one of those situations where you are not doing anything offensive. But you feel like uneasy because you have to present this to somebody else. And you shouldn't have to. But it's human nature. So jacked up. This. Renee, good morning. You're on the birch show. Hi. Good morning. Love the show. You might get punched in the face. Huh? Why? If you go talk to the parents, this happened at Carobus a few months ago. At Town Center. Oh, Carobus. The kids were, oh, yeah. Some kids were climbing over some booth. A gentleman got up and went and talked to the father. The father told him, mine is on business. The gentleman finally went out to their car to leave. The dad goes out there, punched again, the face, sitting in the hospital,

yet the kids' kitchen. Wow. That's why maybe just take yourself out of it and managements the way to go. But I think you'd probably be more, I'd be angrier if you went directly to my kid than you did me. Yeah. But you said that on the playground, you would go to the kid. I mean, if he's like, I'm thinking he's a four or five year old kid. Yeah, I would tell him to stop. I think either way it's uncomfortable. The teenager. Maybe not. Probably not. You don't want to, you don't want to offend a parent's parenting skill. So going directly to the parent, you feel like you're being offensive to how they're teaching their kids to behave. Again, I think, you know, for me, I'm a little guy. I have to size the kid up. Can I take him? Can I not take him? I'm run quick. I've got a taser on me. I don't have a taser on me. Hi, Maya. Good morning. You'll be the last call on this. Then we'll move on. What's up? Hey, so what I do is I like to play the passive aggressive card. Like, I guess in the playground situation, if there was a kid acting up and a parent just didn't care, I take my daughter and very loudly to where the parent can hear, I say,

hey, see that kid over there? He's acting really bad and you shouldn't do that because I bet he doesn't get to do a lot of fun things at home because of his behavior. Oh, it's terrible. Well, that is... The men are not directly addressing the parent but to where the parent maybe gets the marist in front of other people. I don't know. I don't know. That can make a parent snap also, man. They get embarrassed and then you don't know how they're going to act. I don't know. I really don't know. I like how she just called herself out. I take the passive aggressive approach. This is the virtue. You're on the virtue. Hello, Kelly Marien. Hello. Hi, how are you today? I'm good. How are you? Good. We've all been trying to do the math here. How is it possible that you claim that you're going out on your fourth first date? With the same guy. With the same dude. Okay. Kind of confusing but so about three years ago, I went on a date with this guy and it was great but I actually ended up starting to sort of...

I had this on again, off again, relationship with this. Got this other guy and that actually turned into a semi-relationship like the next year and a half after I went on a first date with this guy. Okay. And then we actually ran into each other about a year and a half later after I was with this other guy and we went on our... I guess we could say second first date. Okay. Okay. All right. So with me. And then basically he was sort of in the same situation as I was when we first went on our first date. He was going out with other girls sort of randomly. And then so that didn't really work out and then we... We keep randomly running into each other over the next two years and every time we do, we go on a date. So that's how it's been sort of like four first dates and like the last one was basically...

It's been so bad timing. It's what it's called. You know, it's just complete bad timing. You know, he's always with somebody else or I'm with somebody else. But we like each other and we just, you know, we go on these dates. And I think the last one, you know, he... He was like working a lot and his job was making him move. And so he was like, well, what's the point, you know, of going on a second date. So it's just been like the worst timing ever with us. And I just want to make sure that like, you know, I can go on a second date with this guy. Like is this all like, is it safe that I keep running into him just randomly after like all these years? It would be a bad thing. I would just really try to make this happen or... I think you should. Because there's obviously, there's obviously a connection there and an attraction there. And you've had a good time on all these first dates, right? Yeah, yeah. I just think you're really great. Yeah, I think you're right. I think it's a matter of timing.

And I think you should totally do it. In this definition of destiny that we're always talking about, this is like the forces of nature are bringing the two of you together. And they're saying, here are the signs right here. He's right in front of you. She's right in front of you when the timing is right, go for it. And now the timing seems to be right. So when Harry met Sally or something, you know, like, he years past and you keep running into each other and you're like, wait a second, maybe this should happen. I don't know. I just, yeah, I mean, hopefully, hopefully, you know, we can go on a second date. I just don't know if it'll last that long, you know, like maybe, I mean, I think you're, you know, for the either. I've got two thoughts on this because I do like the whole destiny thing that you guys keep running into each other. Even though the timing's not right, something is keeping you guys within each other's lives. I like that part of the whole thing. But there's also a common sense part of me. Also, that says that if he was really digging on here in the past, he'd make it happen. He would have made it happen already. It would have been contacting you and if he was really into you,

it might be out of sight out of mind though. And why isn't she making it happen with him? Oh, I think that part, I flipped a script on you. Stand back. I know. I think you guys are actually over analyzing it. That's what we guys do. Dude, we're like watches kind of guys. Like on the outside, we're like a face, you know, and you can just see the hands and stuff. But if you open it up, there's like a whole bunch of moving parts and stuff as well. That is so brilliant. I always think of that. Did you say that he has a girlfriend now or you have a boyfriend or in the past you guys have, but you still gone out on these dates? Right, but then they weren't like, it was sort of an on and off again relationship. Like it wasn't like a set, you know, and when you were on a break, we would go out with this guy. When you were on a break from your on and again off again, you would go out with this guy. Yeah, basically. I mean, and it was only when we randomly, you know, ran into each other, something was always going on, you know, but a couple times that we've gone out, you know,

there's either been somebody else that we sort of been with, but we're like, oh, you know, let's go out, you know. I don't quite exactly understand what you're asking from our community, though. Like if there's, am I supposed to be posing a question to our birch listeners for advice? Are you just going to say, hey, follow up with me on Monday? Yeah, I mean, I would love to follow up, you know, and just let you know sort of what happened. That would be cool. I just, you know, I would just, I would love to know all of us in the community is, you know, is this something that I should really pursue or should I just forget it and just be like, well, this is how it's going to be the rest of our lives. It's just one day. It's a second day in a row. We've talked to a woman that's just overthinking a situation. Well, I just think that it, to me, I'd be so fascinated by the fact, why does this guy keep coming into my world, you know? So I would definitely go out and I think that the way you make it work better than it worked before is you just be not on a break with somebody and go back to them. I do. I mean, you have gone to other people after him.

So I mean, if you like him, stay with him. I do like the idea of signs of like, I wonder if there's a, like, who is listening right now that you constantly were running into your future husband or future wife and just didn't realize it until you just were like, just gave in. Like you just find somebody in the most random places and you can't ignore the signs anymore. Serendipity. Serendipity. I'm asking because like, should I ignore this? You know, you should never ignore that. You should never ignore that. There's a reason I totally believe there's a reason it happens. Yeah. Yeah, don't ignore this. Let's go for it. Even if it's just to have fun, it doesn't necessarily have to be your husband in the future, but it, I mean, there's a reason. So as we'll go for it, there's no reason not to. Yeah. Okay. Okay. All right, I'm convinced. Good luck. Maybe we'll give you a call on Monday and find out how the whole thing went. Okay. All right. Cool. All right. Thank you. Bye bye. I'll see you today. The last two days have been really good, really good like peaks into the way women think.

Just the overthinking of things with the resignation yesterday and the promotion and this one here. Everything's finally lined up for them. Where they can legitimately go out on a date. And here she is thinking, should I really go out on a date? Well, see, I think the way women think, I like the way women think, but there are certain situations in which it doesn't, it hurts them more than it helps them. I don't believe in that women overanalyze. I just think women really analyze things more so than guys do from all angles. And I just think in some simple situations, that is when they're, they're, you know, it's just too much, you know? So. All right. Not because I'm going to go with that. And I think that's what you're seeing. And seeing. Here is Anne. Good morning, Anne. You are on the birch show. Hello. Good morning. I love you guys, by the way. Thank you. What's up? I, I, I would say that maybe there is some kind of state stepping in here, but I would caution hard to be careful. Wow. Because I kind of had a sort of odd situation happen with my ex husband.

We knew each other in high school because I dated a friend of his. And we had all these weird instances where we were at the same place, but strange things happened to keep us from seeing each other at the same place. Like I was at a party and I dropped my glass and it shattered and broke and bent over as he went walking by me. And he actually remembered that happening. I worked at a restaurant, but that my head opened five minutes before he and his family came in to eat. I think his presence caused you to hurt yourself. Yeah. I would take that as caution. Yeah. I don't think it was trying to avoid each other. I think every time he came in, harm came to you. That's the sign. And she did indicate it's the ex husband. Yeah. So the signs were stay away from this guy. Yeah. You just want to pay attention to it. It was dangerous. Listen, it's the virtue. The virtue. Chelsea Clinton's wedding. She's getting married on July 31st. So if you're not attending our Jersey Shore party, we're sure you're here. The amount of cash that they're spending on this is ridiculous amount.

$2 million for her wedding. That's a huge amount of money. That's what they're doing. Melissa said this when we brought it up on Friday. I mean, she is the daughter. I mean, she's like American royalty. She's the daughter of Secretary of State and former president. And there is their own kid. I'm ready to say that the Clintons are American royalty. A former president and the current Secretary of State. I mean, you can. Yeah. Like the Kennedy's feel. I mean, the Kennedy have this, you know, linear. Well, sir, it should as long lineage, but still this is the first time my first lady has turned into a dignitary herself. So I mean, this is their only kid. Well, they're making it. It's going to be quite a doubt. $2 million of them is nothing. And she's done very well for herself. Chelsea. And she carved out a really strong career and gotten a really great degree and all this stuff. And she's marrying a normal guy. I think it's pretty cool that she grew up in the limelight like that. You know, in her awkward teenage years getting all that criticism that she got and all that, you know, all that time and still to come out and be like a strong stable person. You know, I would expect somebody like that to be in rehab.

This was Hollywood. That's what we've been talking about. You know, and she's not. All right, we'll start with some of these items now. We won't get through them all and we'll continue later on in the morning. This is what is part of Chelsea Clintons. $2 million wedding. The reception space is rumored to be anywhere from $125,000 to $200,000. I don't have the exact space where it is, but $125,000 to $200,000 right there. Catering. Can this be right? $750,000 for catering. Oh, yeah. Well, how many people is she coming? It's a lot of people to feed. It doesn't say here, but $750,000. Fancy food. You're going to have the best food. You're going to have appetizers, entrees, desserts, wine, bar. Think about how many people. They're probably 600, 800 people there. Yeah. Maybe even more cosmologically. They're in the political world also. So you can't like not. You have to make sure you're not offending anybody. Right. And this is the waitstaff, too, not just the food. $750,000 for catering.

The flowers, $250,000 for flowers along. You see music, 40 grand. Oh, yeah, because they got to book one of the best bands out there for her wedding. My guess is the YouTube video that will come out of the wedding will be when Bill Clinton gets up on stage at some point during the reception and starts playing. Oh, he'll have to. You know, he's going to have to break out. Exactly. Exactly. So I'll detail some more of this stuff for you guys later on, man. But Chelsea Clinton's wedding, $2 million this weekend. Get it, the virtue.
