Punch for President

All right, listener, I know for each of you that tune in every single day, the news is just horrifying at times

but it's so important that you be a responsible citizen and if you care about this country like I do, you have to stay locked into the news

and that's why every single morning we go to our ground news vantage plan and let me give you an example of how this works and you can follow along at home on ground news.com slash I've had it.

So here's a headline that showed up in my vantage plan, Supreme Court ruling offers little relief for Republicans divided on Trump's tariff.

It tells me that this article leans left and it has a very high factuality, same subject, different headline, Trump to sign new 10% global tariff after Supreme Court defeat.

It tells me this is a lean right publication with mixed factuality. So then you know, okay, do I want to read something with mixed factuality that's owned by the Murdoch family?

I'm going to go with the one that has high factuality listener. Join us by going to ground news.com slash I've had it to get 40% off the ground news vantage plan that we use every day.

They are subscriber-funded and my favorite part is that they are female founded by subscribing. You're not only getting a tool. We all need today. You're also supporting our work here at IHIP.

That's ground GRO UND news.com forward slash I've had it.

Ready, one, two, three patriots, patriots, patriots, black patriots, brown patriots, every single triple trumper. I don't care if now you don't like him anymore. You can do what, pumps.

I'm sorry if you had it with. Okay, what I've had it with I'm going to classify as predatory shopping. And what I mean by that is I have noticed a real uptick when I shop online.

And I really look at something I look at like what the material is and all the things. But I don't buy it. Then like 12 hours later, I get a text with the picture of what I was looking at that says this would look great on you or do you are you still thinking about texting your phone texting my phone and I don't put my phone number and stuff.

Really, but when you have an account, they have all that information for shipping. This has happened to me with three different vendors in the last I'd say 30 days.

And so for me as somebody who has a history of buying shit that sucks off Instagram.

They were to catch me in a week moment, even after I've decided this is too expensive or I don't need this.

I could be learned in by these texts. So I think it's predatory like courses per week person. So when you keep sending me something I really, really put a lot of thought into buying.

I don't know how to unsubscribe from it.

This is the thing like remember when I was upset at Zillow because I was like looking at the inside of people's houses like a psycho right and then Zillow.

And then Zillow's emailing me all the time like hey that house is did it and I'm like what the fuck this was private right and that's the thing about your shopping like that's private.

You don't want them contacting you about it. What if you're shopping for a vibrator?

You want a text follow up. You're in a meeting with people and it opens up Angie your vibrator is still available like some of that stuff just needs to be private like they can't follow up.

That's not shouldn't be their idea to follow up. That should be your idea to follow up. I agree.

And it keeps happening. I just think it's weird that I've just noticed this uptick and it happening well because here's the thing all of the surveillance online stuff is just going to get worse and worse and worse like our privacy.

Our online privacy is completely eroding and these tech oligarchs have all of it all of it and we're too busy playing patty cake the democratic leadership with.

Canks to do anything about it. You're right. That's terrible. All right, let me tell you what I've had it with.

I've had it with these mega monkeys in Japan that are bullying punch.

I did not think that Japan had a mega problem specifically with primates but I've been watching a lot of footage online a lot and it's very evident to me that this one particular monkey is a full blown Japanese mega monkey.

Because punch is just a baby. He has his mama that's a that's an Ikea stuffed animal. That's all he has because it's real mother probably mega abandoned him.

And then this big mega monkey is like he punch goes over it or like, Hey, I'm a monkey too. And the monkey just like bullies him and throws him all around.

And then he has to go get his fake mama because his mega deadbeat mama abandoned him and only a mega monkey would bully a baby.

Absolutely. And so then he's running around hiding from all these mega monkeys and I just I can't stop watching this monkey but I'm seeing some great things happening.

I'm seeing some true Patriot monkeys rise up and take care of him.

I saw somebody helping him recently, but I can't quit with this punch stuff. I watched my whole feed. It used to be exactly what I wanted my for you page was exactly what I wanted. I'd help I built it brick by brick.

Tennis shots of my favorite tennis players, French Bulldog content, interior design content and travel. No political stuff in my for you page none, not on Instagram.

The entire for you page now is punched the monkey. So the more I get it, the more into it. I am. I know the personalities at the zoo.

I know which accounts to follow for an update. I know people that have gone to the zoo waited in line to get a ticket to go see the zoo. I've thought about going to the zoo in Japan. If I didn't have to stay here and fight for democracy.

But I'm just this mega monkey problem in Japan is just something I've had it from top to bottom with. And I call on the Japanese government to these monkeys need to be identified with the red mega hats.

They're going to bully punch put the mega hat on them because only a mega would bully little kids because that's what they do here in this country.

MAGA bullies immigrant children and they enjoy it. And they like the recreational cruelty of it in the dehumanization of it in the through line. I'm seeing here is with these primates at this zoo in Japan.

These mega monkeys are bullying little punch motherless punch poor motherless punch. I have to tell you. I've seen a little bit of it, but I haven't been down the rabbit hole and it's.

I need to get more into it because I would love that shit. But every time I see a story about it and I haven't gone down deep, but I think everything mega touches turns to shit.

Like everything that raw raw maggot. So you thought they were mega monkeys too. Well, yeah, immediately. But that could also be my for you page.

You know, I have a lot of curated stuff about hating Trump on my for you page. So somebody that thought that that was a good idea. I'd be all in.

I thought that what was a good idea. Like comparing these primates to magazine. Yeah, yeah. I mean, so I probably not the most.

What do you say? And compromise person. I just think they're little mega monkeys and I don't like it. I don't like it one bit. I'm not tell you who probably does like all the bullying that is MAGA.

They probably enjoy that.

Watching punch get bullied because they like they like seeing Hispanic kids get bullied in the United States of America and they don't care about it.

They like poor Trump doesn't even have an animal, which I'm grateful that he doesn't have.

Because look at your lot of gratitude. He doesn't have an animal, but he doesn't even like animals, you know.

Can you imagine the pet. If you look at his kids and Melania and all that, can you imagine how horrible that's some abandoned little flea bag.

Oh, just be so sad. Just snuckled up in the corner.

Well, you know, the dog would end up being a dick because that's what Trump raises. I mean, one of a million and not smart.

All right, welcome to I've had it. I'm Jennifer. I'm Angie.

All right. So today, Kylie is busy editing some episodes and banger episodes for I hit news or other podcasts.

She's not with us today. So I'm going to read the reviews. Seth is joining us. Seth pop up the first review.

The good ones. It's a five star review. Love it.

I was wary of listening to this podcast because you know, two white ladies.

I didn't even know about Kylie then turns out these are three of the good ones.

Even the occasional husband seems to be a good one.

They are truly modeling the behavior of progression, learning, listening, critical thinking, course correcting and speaking out in support of the marginalized and against the fascist takeover.

I could go on, but this review is already too long and I have to say moon pearl five one three go on.

Keep it coming. Keep going. Go back in and add more.

I was like, you know, I've decided at first, I was like, I didn't matter. But now I'm like at 51 and how do you know 60?

Fuck you. 50 six. 50 six. 50 six is a lot older than me. I've decided like, you know what?

I do like the flattery. I'm going to own it. I dig it. And you know what's great about us?

We can accept the flattery. Yeah. And the in the criticism rolls office like what are the ducks back?

All right. Let's read the next review.

Oh, another five star review from Rin Marie, one of the best podcasts out there.

I am obsessed with your show, the wit, the honesty.

I love how you just hold space to express the frustrations we feel today.

And even lovingly push back with each other at times when it's needed.

I go back and forth between I had news in this show. It helps me deal with my own rage.

I appreciate you both sharing your stories and your grace regarding disagreement and criticism.

Keep up the important work.

I have to say that's fantastic.

This, the whole thing that we're going through right now is really abusive what the federal government is doing.

It is. And you know, I think that when you think about a family or you think about a relationship, you always thought,

okay, emotional safety is something that I value. At least for me, I've always valued emotional safety.

And I've tried to strive when I didn't know what that was. I got into therapy to learn what that was to define it.

Like emotional safety should be paramount. It should be a priority.

So being in relationships that are transparent, that are honest, and that have value.

Like that is one of the top tier things that I seek in relationships.

And so you never really thought as an American living in a superpower that you really had to worry about that.

And I say that as a white woman, as a white woman, I didn't have to worry about emotional safety with my government.

So the eye opening thing for me has been in this started before Trump.

My youngest son played a you basketball.

And I became really close with a lot of the other basketball mothers.

And these are black women that had to work two jobs that had a different narrative.

They had to tell their sons about how to interact with police or how to interact in society or what they can be wearing when the walking

from their house to 7, 11. So that was a real eye opening thing for me, the disparity and experience.

And I've always been open minded and I've always been anti-racist and I've always been progressive.

But bonding with other women when raising my kids that came from a different place that I came from

is one of the most valuable things that ever happened.

And I love these women and I love their kids and I witnessed other parents be racist towards their kids.

Excuse the racism of other white parents towards their kids.

And this experience now that we are experiencing white Americans from the federal government where we see Renée Nicole Good get shot.

And we see Alex pretty get shot. It's so jarring.

But it's not jarring for black America.

And one of the biggest points I think coming out of this, if we really get structurally into it, is we didn't value the safety of all Americans.

And that is on us.

The black community was telling us for a long time, we were getting over policed.

Nobody's enriching or investing in our communities.

There's a disparity in synacing there is structural racism in the court system, policing financial lenders, etc.

And we would go, okay, I'm going to go vote Democrat and that's going to solve it.

But the lesson in all of this is when you leave one group vulnerable, you leave everybody vulnerable.

And those white people that think they're safe in MAGA, particularly white Christian men, my favorite is you because they try to kill Mike Pence.

They tried to kill Mike fucking pants who had a pet rabbit and calls his wife mother.

And so I, the biggest lesson for white people that we have to atone for is not listening to our black brothers and sisters in this country.

And all the racism that is allowed, the silence, the silent racism that always goes unchecked, that's, that's the part that's the grossest to me, the people who allow racist in their life to act with it with impunity.

Okay moving along we have news stories pop this up extensive decades long study finds high IQ men reject.

Right wing social views so this is something we've been saying since the inception of the podcast and now the science is catching up so I have a friend that's super active in dating super active in dating and.

She has been ben fuzzle you know we've read about men don't tell you their maga when they start dating you that you meet and then you find out I had a conversation with her.

So she has that has happened to her twice one was openly maga but she didn't know it he wasn't openly maga with her two had straight up light about it all over social media all that.

She said three worse lays in the history of her life all maga all maga okay so then I call another friend that super active dating life and I'm like hey I just have a question for you have you encountered.

Maga men that you've slept with and how would you think that and she we went back over a 10 year period.

And the worst lays ended up being maga and so I think they're not as smart and they're also terrible lays which leads me to my point a lot of this is controlled by men.

In securities and little penises there were a lot of two inch limbs in there to.

And so I did my own research so this is another that will lead the study will come soon right it was just a very selfish to.

Well you know there's this whole thing online like maga men are having a hard time dating nobody will get women will not date maga men I mean Trump is so underwater with women.

And so a lot of these young maga guys are so frustrated and that's why I think they're turning to like Nick Fuentes because women just straight up don't want to date.

A show in his prick like it's just not that complicated and so it surprises me zero that these maga men are bad lays because they're all compensatory narcissists and.

The maga movement and the culture that it is created is I mean like I don't even hardly think about Trump that much anymore he's kind of irrelevant to me right I think more now about the incubation because maga that the shit that it started and it's incubating is is so bad I mean Trump.

He's not even a fucking serious person yeah he has a serious job right now but he's a dipshit with dementia he makes zero sense when he talks.

He like the whole maga thing was like the liberals want participation trophies everybody gets a trophy now everybody has a pronoun blah blah blah your fucking president is the biggest participation trophy loser.

On the planet he steals people's medals he steals people's trophies he has billionaires make up bullshit awards to give to him and he stands there and holds it like he's so fucking proud of it everything you all hated and spoke out against this pussy embraces he is a participation trophy.

President and y'all dig it love all the shit and they believe in nothing these people believe in nothing there is no conviction none and that's a deal breaker for me people that don't have fucking conviction fucking believe in something if you're racist believe in it believe in it say it but the people that pick me people I've had it with this stage and fascism I've had it and at the stage of my life at 51 years old I just simply

you get to choose who you want to be around pick me people can go fuck themselves yeah I've had it not picking them okay so the next news story is a Dutch worker goes viral for explaining he has life

life outside work to his American boss so this was on reddit my American manager tried to write me up for quote lack of commitment because I leave it 5 p.m. sharp I work in the Netherlands I work for the Dutch branch of a large US tech company we recently got a new middle manager based in New York.

He seemed like a nice guy at first but it turns out he is totally obsessed with hustle culture last week he had a one-on-one meeting where he told me he was concerned about my dedication to the team he listed his grievances quite clearly he didn't like that my slack status goes offline at 501 p.m. every single day he was annoyed that I didn't reply to an email he sent on Saturday morning until Monday at 9 a.m.

he was especially frustrated that I refused to join a quote team bonding zoom that was scheduled for 7 p.m. my time which is 1 p.m. his time he gave me the usual speech about how in this company we go the extra mile and that if I want to grow I need to be more available I had to give him a bit of a reality check that looked at him in the eye over zoom and told him that in the Netherlands

if you can't finish your work by 5 p.m. it doesn't mean you're dedicated it means you are inefficient or understaffed I told him that I am neither.

I also reminded him that contacting me outside of working hours for non-emergencies is actually frowned upon here and that my contract is for 40 hours not 40 hours plus nights and weekends.

He tried to threaten me with a performance improvement plan I immediately forward the email to our Dutch HR representative she literally laughed when she read it and told me to ignore him.

She said she would have a quote chat with him about local labor laws and then of course since then the boss hasn't sent me an email since 5 p.m.

I love this so much because I my work I'm a I'm a big worker during work hours I always tell people I'm available during work hours I put on my schedule if I have a workout but I wake up and I go to work all day long I love to work I love my job my career has been the

the center outside of my children the central most important part of my adulthood I value it and so many of my adult identities are attached to my career however when I'm off work I'm off work I rarely rarely text people after hours if I text an employee early in the morning I started off with my apologies for texting so early I try to be very cognizant of that.

And in my interior design world I have clients that will group text me and my head designer for my design firm they'll group Texas 6 a.m. about something arbitrary about their interior design project and I go out of the group text and leave my employee out of it and then respond to my client hello and good morning I removed blank from this text message because I don't like to bug my employees at 6 p.m.

Also could you think maybe if you want to email us if you want to contact us this morning could you possibly putting an email I'm available I'm an early riser if you need to sort through this right now and then typically if you draw a boundary like that they will respond oh my god I'm so sorry yes I'll put it into email but I try to be respectful of that and that American idea like I think it's your son doesn't he work something like 90 hours a week or something 90 or 100 hours a week and a lot of it I was seeing

seeing him in that because I talked to him all the time and I say I understand that you know you work all the time but my thought would be if you're so tired and I think the same of like resident like doctor residency like if you are this exhausted how can you be making your best decisions because if I am exhausted and over tired I get dumber like I don't make the sharpest decisions and so I think that is really good.

It's valuable and even in his line of work they had somebody new come in and it was like that person just left like at 11 p.m. instead of staying till 3 you know a.m. and it was somewhat like you know he's he's slacking off and I'm like maybe he's taking care of himself maybe when he's at work he's making better decisions I don't know how it ended because you know I get information he wants to give me but I just thought a lot about that and I just think performance

wise you have to have some time away you have to well and I think it's more than just performance wise like we have to value as a society something bigger than careers like my career is so important to me and it's been such a it's a therapeutic thing when my husband went through his addiction when we had major financial problems I was able to really dive into my career and it was there

and it was a self esteem affirmation for me I enjoy it but when I checked out I check out I was on a podcast yesterday guy asked me are you worked up all the time and I was like no when I leave the office I go play tennis I'm hanging out with my family I have fantastic progressive open minded friends gay guys that have fun phone conversations with and I let the Trump stuff I let the work stuff go

and like for your poor oldest son like so much of his 20s is going to be defined by this hustle culture and then there's a lot of important social development at that age absolutely dating getting hammered all the stuff you know bad

yes yes shame and that's it this this type of stuff making people like breaking them down and making them work that much is a uniquely American thing and I wish that we would shift gears and quit placating to corporations so much and the corporations would embrace treating their employees better because the fact that we give when you start letting people off the hook for things it's a dangerous thing yeah we let corporations off the hook for not paying taxes we let corporations off the hook for the money

for not paying their employees a livable wage we let corporations off the hook for so much stuff and then they treat their employees like shit and they go look your mind I own you it's kind of like this slave labor mentality thing that exists in the United States maybe it's an extension from slavery you know like these corporations own you and the worship of corporations is so gross okay Seth do we have some voice memos we do and this first one is from Allen

hi ladies hi Seth um I wanted to send this I've had it because I know y'all said y'all want more I've had it and my I've had it actually comes after watching like recent podcast episodes I know that pumps said that like people like we need to bring back fat ass and it made me think I don't think that we're talking enough shit as of lately like we need to gossip more as humans like I

think it's in our human nature and I've had it with people that are like I'm above gossip I don't like to gossip or like if somebody's at a dinner table we're all talking shit and they're like I just don't like to do that I just think it's rude well fuck you like you're of fat ass it needs to go like I just want to talk shit that's all I want to do whether it's about politics or pop culture or you know sometimes you just want to use

have a fucking friend that you want to talk shit about not in a mean way but I mean even if it isn't a mean way just let people gossip and I've had it with people that don't want to gossip and don't want to talk shit okay love you bye

I have a new I have a new thing I'm bringing back listen to a lot of British books and I watched a lot of British television you know what something I'm under utilizing

she's a fucking cow male or female fucking cow I like it it's like twat I'm into it and my counter argument to that would be what's the worst and I have participated in this is when people say

let's pray for Jennifer because then they go on to gossip but it's guys in they want to pray about it

so sometimes when I'm being a shithead I might call and say I know I'm a shithead and this makes me very immature but I have to say it

because I think it's grosser to say I want to pray for somebody really you just want to talk shit

I um I agree with the shit talking I I have a couple of people in my life from time to time

we'll send or say ugly thanks really ugly things about other people and I don't like that like I do not like

uh beating people punching down just for the sake of being a dick I just it's always bothered me it particularly bothers me now shit talking about stuff

love I love to shit talk but gossip is one of these things that people can be incredibly stomach turning about incredibly and I there's

uh when I think about the times that I've been around people that are really being ugly I feel like

oh my god I need to exfoliate the fuck out of my body right now I feel so contaminated by their toxicity

so I think it's a fine line with the caller like I love shit talking love it I love gossiping about

maggot and bad people but when I see sometimes people are just fucking mean yeah in their god and I

I just I have always felt like my moral compass like does that make you feel better like what is that

about like what is that punching down about because it's clearly not about that person there's something

about that that really upsets me and I've been around it a couple of times lately and it's something where

I'm like I don't think I want to be around that like that is too toxic for my taste yeah I have

evolved on that because I gossip queen when I was younger as I get older I find it I find that

I'm less I don't like it when people just punch down for the sake of punching down and to be cute or

I don't know I just I'm always like what the fuck is that about like does that make you feel good

I think that's what it is it's gross I think a lot of times you

pick it something like you covet something say you want to make it worse you want to try to

demean it a little bit yeah my mother was never a like I remember I was a cheerleader when I was

younger and a lot of the moms were super involved in gossiping about other children on the

true leading squad and other moms and they would have these parents meetings and my mother would say

I'm not going I'd have zero desire to be around these women they are horrible they are literally

horrible human beings that sit gossip about other people's children like that you cannot punch

any more down than that and so that was the example that was set for me at a really young age

of seeing how how I just don't think there's anything worse on the planet than a grown-ass woman

that sits in gossip is about a child with their children it's like I'm like that is the most toxic

thing I have ever seen in my life and it's it's abundant but I'm not being very much fun for the

caller because a caller wants to bring back some shit talking and I mean I fucking love to

shit talk I just hate the punching down I hate it I think it is such an ugly part of humanity

yeah no I agree with you and we see it so much like it's the last 10 years we've seen it just

in every aspect of life and I think it gets closer but I do love it's shit talk and I do love

saying funny things to my friends that I would like I like to say it to their face and laugh about

it like we do that with each other all the time this episode of I've had it is brought to you by

with dermatology techs that are trying to sell me their own shit that I am not interested in buying

I'm there to get my moles checked and that's it I don't want to buy your shitty little bouquet

flowers or the homemade skincare that you probably created in your basement thank you that's just

the force capitalism that you were talking about at the top like that's horrible you're going to

get a mole check you're not going to buy a mom you know and here's the thing too I think it

takes a special kind of person to walk in like my little Sally she made a bouquet and it is so good

I'm gonna come in to the workplace and try to sell not even co-workers that are my friends

but people that I don't know because I think her work is so special everybody 17 year old can make

a flower bouquet it's just not that special like stop stop stop I honestly I know that you're

gonna give me shit about this I would absolutely tell the dermatologist what was going on I would

because if it were my business and my assistant went out to a divorce client and said oh hey my

little Sally made it you know this bullshit ugly ass thing and I want to show it to you and I

want you to feel pressured to buy it as an employer I would want to know that so I would absolutely

ask you this if you're in there getting your mole check and the doctors running late and then the

nurses in there talking to you she starts showing you this shit do you feed that stray cat do you

start asking a bunch of questions do you engage feed the cat small talk it then go tattle okay now

here's what I would do here's exactly gonna draw a boundary with the nurse no probably not that

but I mean I'm gonna be honest I probably wouldn't but I would say oh my gosh those are great I

have to look on my phone for a second I've got to answer an email or I would dismiss the situation

am I gonna lie and tell you there wasn't a time that I would go in I would compliment I would

say how fabulously talented these stupid little Sally do you think you made this change last

week yesterday fuck you it's a slow evolution I'd say in the last 10 years I've gotten

better about it probably foot on the break and really made a noticeable change like the inside

of what have been dying the whole time but now the outside and the inside I'm trying to make those

the same I can't wait to be out with you and to see this new Angie okay I'm just telling me

excited to see this boundary drawing are you making fun of me no I just I don't know this version of

you yeah I'm excited to see I'm excited to see it in action this is news to me no I am I am okay

um who's next all right up next is Shay hello everyone I have had it with people who refuse

to celebrate their birthday the people who their birthday comes around and they say it's just

another day it's not another fucking day it's your birthday you were born this day you celebrate

because you were born this day and all the other people in your life that love you want to celebrate

you because you were born this day and when you say that out loud it's just another day that makes

all the other people who love to celebrate their birthday because they're fucking normal sound like

assholes sound like selfish little assholes when really you're the loser who just wants to pretend

like you don't like attention because why because you don't know how to have fun because you don't

know how to celebrate yourself because you're upholding the patriarchy and you're a woman and so

women aren't allowed to have anything for themselves or any celebratory reason to just be happy

that they exist right you sound fucking lame as hell I would never be your friend I would never

hang out with you and I think you suck so I've had it with non celebratory fucking freaks you're not

I think you're gonna have it with us caller I was gonna say she's I'm the loser I am too I get

so tired of birthdays and I don't I'm uncomfortable with a bunch here's the thing what happens with

the birthday now because of the smart phone somebody posts on their story happy birthday Jennifer

blah blah and then you're like okay I like it and then you think well I probably need to

reshare it because that was really nice of them so then you share it and then the text start in

people I the last time I had a birthday I had a text stream from somebody and it was like the

last seven years the only text that were happy birthday thank you exclamation point the next year

happy birthday thank you happy birthday thank you and I just I get I appreciate that the caller

wants to celebrate birthdays and that you would think were freaks you get to have that

I am tired of fucking celebrating shit I am so American culture over celebrates shit nothing

is like the the person who I have the seven year relationship happy birthday we don't need to be

talking right if for seven years all we've done is you've trolled my Instagram and found out

it's my birthday really nice to say happy birthday but we don't have anything to say to each other

in that time period let's call it right then hurt my feelings let's call it and I I just am not a

big birthday celebrate tour now I when my children were little oh yeah I wanted them to have

parties cakes party favors their friends the cheesier the better like I was very big into because

a kid should feel their birthday they should celebrate it but now that my kids are in college like

it's I'm like let's go to dinner or do you want me to get pizza at the house and then I get a

cake and that is it that is the end of of the road yeah I am one of those people that she hates now I

will say this if I have a close friend that loves their birthday I I do all the birthday stuff and

I do it because I love them and they love their birthday and it makes them happy I'm happy to do

that for me personally the less fanfare the better like my idea of celebrating Mother's Day was you

take the kids away from me that celebrate my idea of a happy birthday is to not have to get up and

go out to dinner and do all that so and I just had one and it you just feel pressure like okay I

have to make plans with this person in this for and it's so nice but I feel like and this is

going to make her hate me and not want to be my friend but every single person on the planet has a

birthday every single day there are millions of people that have birthdays yours really isn't that

special like it's it's great to celebrate another day it's just another day I don't usually say

but I just I don't feel a big need to celebrate my birthday I don't say that but I also don't like

if people are like let's go together for lunch for your birthday and I was like I'm good I really

really appreciate it I get kind of uncomfortable I just rather go to lunch because we're going to

lunch I don't want to go to lunch with the focus being my birthday I just and I'm not a big like

I'm not a big like girls grouper and I've always just to void this is where the other caller

in this call kind of meld together it's always a group of girls that be like let's get together

and do your birthday and I just I like more mixed company I'm more of a I'm not super big

into homosocial relationships I have great ladies in my in my friendships fantastic but God

I love my gay guys and so I like more of a mixed mixed bag of of a free time more diversity do you

think we just lost a listener no she loves us it's the here's the thing like I don't think

and I've had it listener is they're tough they're not gonna fold suit because we think it's stupid

to celebrate birthdays because we're stupid for saying that and she can go fuck Jen and pumps I

hate them and then she's gonna tune in the right next episode yeah sure um all right let's do

one last one Seth okay this one is from Lex hey ladies so I have a grievance and I don't know

if this has been discussed on the podcast yet I don't think it has because I listen to literally

fucking everything but my grievance is I'm tired of moms or parents it's usually moms though

that I see that will be like we don't have the same 24 hours in a day or if you finish to work out

today and you don't have three kids then it's not really a feat like big we have the same 24

hours but you chose to fill yours with multiple children why the fuck is that my fault now my

workout isn't a workout because I don't have fucking kids to go home to like excuse me

Jesus Christ what and I'm talking about the brown Jesus not the white one uh what the fuck like how

does that make my life any less valuable because I don't have kids it's just fucking weird

I completely agree with her the weaponization of children is such a thing and it's

I get really irritated um I remember when we first started this podcast it was not about our kids

it was not about us being mothers I mean there might be grievance from time to time about the kids

but it was about us and the shit that we wanted to shit talk about and there was this website

scary mommy and they kept covering our podcast and they called us mom podcasters and I thought

that was really reductive you don't go and call Joe Rogan dad podcaster Joe Rogan does this and

I just think there's this whole really weird niche of the internet where there's this whole

outperforming each other motherhood wise TikTok has exacerbated that and I just I don't feel any

more of a woman better of a woman better of a person for having kids than not having kids it was

my personal choice it's my deal I have nothing but envy for the people that have you know made

that choice for themselves to not have kids but to quantify the valuing of time and workouts and

shit that's just to me the person with three kids is really really jealous of our gal there yeah

yeah and really jealous and I've said this before on the podcast but I never it was never

an opportunity or I never felt like it was a question that I was gonna have kids that was what

was expected of me I have so much admiration for these women because right now they're under attack

that say you know what I'm not gonna have kids that that's just not a choice for me I really admire

that I'm not saying I don't want kids but I just I want every female to be like if I want kids

that's fine but the expectation that somebody who has female has to have a kid is I really hate it

I really hate it and it's probably like a trigger thing for me a little bit and I'm glad I had

kids but I'm just saying like and for that to be weaponized I just think a lot of these mothers

just don't have anything fucking better to do than talk about their kids and how much time they

spend on their kids and I'm like your kids probably suck they're probably a fucking little cow

yeah yeah the mom culture and I think back to my mom kind of set this tone where she wasn't

gonna get involved in all that parent shit and when my kids were going through school I didn't

get involved in it I was not the person that I picked my moments even with my kids school group

like there would be a group of parents my youngest child played a bunch of basketball

when he wasn't playing AAU basketball and he played school ball there would be a bunch of parents

sitting there together I knew they were MAGA I knew they were racist I wasn't gonna sit with them

you're gonna need it better than them and neither was Josh and we went and we set by ourselves like

I was not and Roman was like why don't you sit with him I was like they're MAGA racist and you

guess yeah they kind of are their kids kind of suck too so having this honest conversation about

preparing you know kids for yeah there's this whole thing that's like we're all in this together

we all have to just like no I don't have to hang out with you I don't have to sit by you I don't

have to work out and think that my workouts better but you know what I wish the callers say you know

what my workout was 10 fucking thousand times better than yours bitch because I didn't have to worry

about these kids draining my life I enjoyed it and I bet you I burned more calories than you're

tested or my life is so much happier not a better in workout better in every way

all right I think that's all we have for today um pumps tell them we will see you next Tuesday
