¡The Burt Show! I'm doing an arts and crafts project, here's the... Chef has like needle and thread out. He'll have frozen over everybody, just kidding. But right now, while Jessica, my wife, is still in studio, we are going to do something that we witnessed last night, and then Jessica's also going to make the prediction, because we've got a lot of fetuses in here as well. OK, we have Anna from Sales. Hi, Anna. Hey, Anna. So here's what we're going to do. Jessica has this talent, she thinks, where she seems to think she can come on and she can predict the sex of a child from just looking at the pregnant mom. And she claims to have almost like a 90% accuracy, right? I think it's more like 50%, which would be, I don't know, logical. But she's like, I get it right every time, I know. And here's what she does is she makes the prediction way early in the pregnancy. And then she doesn't...
She makes the prediction super, super, super early in the pregnancy. Then she doesn't bring it up again. And then when the baby's born, she declares, I know it would be a girl, because by then everybody's forgotten what she originally predicted. It's good idea. Is that true? No, I don't know what you're talking about. I get it right. I have a sixth sense, and you're just going to have to accept that. It's very angry. It's very angry about my special talent. Well, now we're surrounded by pregnant people. And so I think what we can do in Tracy is, you know, the producer of our show, we've talked about her, she's doing June, right? End of June. Yeah, we have two first time moms in the studio. So that may add to it, because they, since I've never carried a child before, this then, you know, has some mothers of multiple children, like, oh, well, I'm carrying this one differently than my last one. So I predict it's this, but, but we have Anna and Tracy and Studio who are first time congratulations again. Thank you. And then I'm trying right now to get a third person on, because if you go three for three, then, then, then it's been declared. And it's good.
Okay. If you go three for three. So did you already predict early on in both of these pregnant women being office? No, not in the office, the friend of ours. Well, no, not early. I mean, I think Tracy was last week. I was just talking to her and all of a sudden, I just looked at her stomach and I just had this thought. And so that's what I think. And I think I know what she's going to have. And just look at Anna and I think I know what she's going to have. And then our other friend last night, same thing. I could just lay it all out right now. Okay. I know. And Tracy's actually finding out the sex of the baby today today. Right. So I think the way, the right way that we should do this, or the proper way that we should do this, is Jessica should make her declaration today. Okay. What she thinks each person is having. And then on Monday, after Tracy finds out, we could get the results we can have. And you know. Okay. But you haven't talked to Jessica about that. I believe so. All right. So good. So it will reveal Anna's, I guess, as well on Monday.
It's right. Yeah. Okay. Everybody reveals it at the same time. Yeah. And so Jeff, last night we were at that party. And I guessed that my friend at the party, what she's having. And then this other friend of ours came over and randomly said, I have a test that will prove the sex, which he'll explain. And it went to the same sex that I guess, that I had guessed. It was very bizarre. Very bizarre. And this is what this craft, this art and craft project Jeff's doing, is he's putting together the test. Yes. Okay. So, um, Hey, Mike Lee. Yes. How are you? I'm good. Good. Mike Lee is our third friend, so we have Anna, Tracy and Mike Lee. Okay. And so, congratulations. Yes. Thank you. And your due date again, Mike Lee is. So, I'm 23rd. And here's, Mike Lee has been screwing with Jessica too, because Jessica declared that she didn't want to know what Mike Lee was having. Mm-hmm. Wanted to be surprised. So, I actually already know what Mike Lee is having. And Jessica does not. And Jessica does not.
Okay. So, Jessica. How do you know so early? Oh, for me. Um, well, they... I don't know. I had an appointment a couple weeks ago, actually, and they told me what they thought it was. So... So... So, and when do you find out definitely? Uh, in a couple weeks. Okay. So, Jessica, would you like to make your prediction for Mike Lee's child? Yes. On record, officially, you think Mike Lee is having... A boy. A boy. All right. Mike Lee don't say anything to her until, uh, next time we talk. Okay. Okay. I mean, you can talk to her like you can be friendly. You just don't say anything to her. Yeah. Right. All right. Okay. Jessica. Thank you, Mike Lee. Thank you, Mike Lee. Okay. Bye y'all. Bye. Jessica, make your prediction for Tracy. Girl. You think Tracy's having a girl? Yep. Okay.
And make your prediction for Anna. Boy. Boy. Okay. All right. This trick. And I think... And what is Anna do? We haven't even asked Anna. Uh. Tomorrow. Yes. And it's like not soon enough. Yeah. In the day now. There you go. February 23rd. But hopefully sooner. So... She's in that stage of, I'm ready now. Yeah. Has anyone done this to you yet? Okay. Hey, Kelly. Hey. Can you explain this needle thing? Okay. Are you doing the one where you hang the needle over the wrist? Yes. Okay. It so works. I did it when I was pregnant. And you don't have to be pregnant to do it. Like I did it to my mother and it showed every pregnancy she ever had. It will show if you had a miscarriage or abortion or anything like that. Fine. We also did it to my aunt who was gay and never had no intentions of ever having a baby and a needle did not move once forever. Okay. So you could test it on me as a... Yeah. Okay. I don't know. If you... If you're not going to get pregnant, then... Yes. Unless Jesus is coming back.
There's no way. It doesn't have ever been. But yes, it did not move at all. And I did it to another friend of mine. And they all, every... People who have had babies, we did it to all the parents, who the mothers, and it showed every pregnancy they had. You basically hold it... Hold it tight with the needle pointing down on the wrist with your wrist out. And it will go around in a circle for a girl and back and forth for a boy. Really? And then it will move if you've never been pregnant. Now, are you sure it's circle for a girl and back and forth for a boy? Because... I could be confused about that. It's been a while. Ten years since I did that. And I can't remember which is which. But... Can I make a comment though? Because that's not a needle that you have on... It just has to be a weight. A weight. Okay. So it's the same thing. I don't know. We've done it with a needle. And you can actually do it over the person's belly if they actually are pregnant. But if they're not, we do it over the wrist. Like you hold your wrist out. Because Jeff's doing it as you're talking. You're facing up. Yeah, Jeff's doing it right now.
He's got his ring on his string. And it's going back and forth, right? Yeah. It's not a circle. And back and forth, which you were saying would be a boy? I thought that was not back and forth was a boy. That's what we heard back and forth was a boy. Yeah, yeah. No, a circle was a boy. No, last night it was back and forth with Michael. Well, that's important to know. So Michael needs to go back and forth? Yes. I wanted my needle on me because I could do it and I could tell you. Because I'm watching Jeff's arm not moving. His shoulder not moving. His hand not moving. And he just is, he has his wedding ring on a string. And we'll see what it will do is it'll stop. It'll like say it'll go in a circle and then it'll stop. And then it'll start moving again for the next child. I'm going into that. That's right there. That is so tricky. It's going in a circle. It's going in a circle. It's going in a circle. It's going in a circle. Yeah, it will actually stop. Like if you have four kids, like say you had girl boy, girl boy, it'll go around in a circle. Then it'll stop. Then it'll start going back and forth. And then it'll stop. That is so weird.
I mean, basically what happened is that Jeff has his wedding ring on a string. Like you said, has to be a way. Does it have to be a metal weight? Yeah, back and forth for a boy. No. I've always done it with a needle. So I've never heard it done with a ring. But like my mom, my mom had a boy and a girl. But she had a miscarriage before me and after me. And it showed all four pregnancies. And the same with my grandmother. So the sixth, because she had two miscarriages and four kids. Freaky. Thanks for the call, Kelly. Okay, guys, have a good one. Hey, Melissa. This is really freaky. I've never seen anything like this in my life. So the circle is a girl, right? Yes. Okay. Yeah, I just looked it up. So so far it would be that it was right. Mm-hmm. Or the Jessica was right. Okay, it's above Melissa's wrist and it's not really moving. It just kind of stopped. Just sitting there. Yeah, it's just sitting there. Yeah. That weird. Wow. That is freaky. So who is it? Well, let me, let me better visual explain. Because I think we keep talking.
So he has the, the ring on a string. Yeah. And he hangs it directly over right there at the pulse point over the inside wrist. Yep. If someone's out of these women's outstretched arms. And then it's almost as if once you put it on there, then it's almost like the ring resets itself. Because at, at some point, it kind of stops. And then it starts its motion or non-motion. So when it was over my wrist, he'd put it on there. Of course, with motion, it was just kind of swinging around. But then all of a sudden it just almost like stopped. You know, like I could see that it kind of ran. But with Tracy, it stopped. And then it started again in the circle. And with Anna, it stopped. And it then started again swinging back and forth. You know what? Let's try it again. But Jen, because you know what? Maybe it's some weird, no, I don't want to do it to you. I want you to do it to somebody else. Okay. And Anna, and see if it's still worth it. It has same results. We have to make a video of this and put it up online. Yeah. Right. We do. Okay. You got to get it real close. But don't touch. It's not really moving at all. I'm not doing anything. Is it the same wrist? Anna that you used before?
Yeah. Maybe you only have one shot. There it goes. There it goes. Oh my gosh. I did start moving back and forth again. Oh my goodness. That's freaking weird. I know. Why is it happening? I don't want the food you. The food you wanted me. That Jen has a weird opinion. Jen has a weird opinion. Okay. Chase and Camila, let's try it. Hey. Hey, Namy Shred. Nice. Welcome to Voodoo FM. I'm sorry. It's just crazy. Wow. Chase is just automatically starting. You know what? I am one of my daughter's friends mom at school. This is a while back. Right. Almost two years ago. She showed me. I took up a gold bracelet. You know. I made a circle with my hand. esto es mi hand y las dáblas en la década, 3 veces el cerco y tal vez en la sangria y porстрado el cerco de sangre, pues yaYa tengo una cierra y cuando me lo escuché, yo estaba aprobado el sexo de mihl y luego quedo cerco, y luego quedando en la fuerza que se pende un coche y que llegue a ser un coche Wow si alguien tiene un coche con encargada y no sapá, yo veras
