3:07disclosures. What made you think of this, Kaelin? The most embarrassing thing you did as a kid, which is a good story, but why are we thinking about this? Well, because I was having dinner with my sister who is in town on Friday and we always joke about how she, if you guys have not seen my sister, she looks like Bella Hadid. She's so beautiful, she's like a model, but she was a very weird child, like weird to the point where I'm not allowed to talk about how she would run on all fours, like she was a horse or a dot, she would hiss at my friends, she would bark at cars that pulled up. Like she was very weird. I'm not even joking. And even my sweet, her sweet, sweet grandma, my sweet SIP, grandma was like, you guys have to figure this out. Like she never says anything. And so to make her feel better, I was like, okay, well, I got a weird one because she's always like genuinely, like I was so weird. So when I was little, I told her that, and this is dead serious, I was convinced that I could see germs, okay, like the telescopic germs. And I was convinced if I unfocused my eyes, that I could see germs on surfaces, like I

4:09really believe this, and I told everyone, and I was like, you know, that's pretty weird. And I turned out somewhat all right. That's literally like, and then my- You hear it with us in this room, and you fit in just fine, you're not all right. Yeah, you're right, I'm not all right. But I just got me down this rabbit hole of like all of my friends we've talked about, just like the weird little characteristics they had as a kid, because I feel like there's some weird kids out there. 855-591-1035 in context to say number. What comes to mind when I say this, the embarrassing thing that you can think of as a kid? I mean, for me, it's hands down the campletters. It's just, I mean, I wrote these novels home to my family when I was 11 years old, 10 years old, 11 years old. They said it was nice summer camp, and I just wrote these like, these hostage letters. Like, with my demands, you know, I mean, you know, here's this, it's like an ocean in the background, and I'm like, oh, give me. It's hard for me immediately. They're making me play in the beach. Oh my god. I just, I didn't do any of that. Well, I will take action. Right. I didn't do any of that. It's so embarrassing.

5:10And I, I don't, I need to find those letters and destroy them, because they're going to be, they're going to resurface at the time, I don't want to do it. Please, please. I was, I was very traumatic time. Okay. My parents are getting divorced. Understandable. And I was troubled. That was a troubled young man. And he wanted to be back in the, the fighting of the divorce. I felt like I was being sent away and I, you know, I don't know, it did, it's, I'm screwed up. But, but I, I regret. I mean, I just, I didn't do it right. He sent me his camp. I should have just embraced and it had a great time, and then I could have become a counselor and I could have, man, sister went after me and then she, I mean, she, that's her home away from home. She says, she's in the promotional videos, put his, put his, put his camp. But, man, I mean, those things tortured me, that whole thing, I'm like, oh, I'm such an idiot. I was so codependent. Um, I don't know what, Pauline, you got to have something. Oh, no, not Jason. I'm sorry. Oh, let's see. So when I was little, I know we had like those dare people come in or whatever, right? Like all those little functions that they would come in, whatever, the presentations. You mean the police officers would come in and take that to the drug?

6:12I don't even know their police officers. They were like volunteers or so. I don't know. The drug addicts. They were, yeah, they were something. They had their own little program going on. And they would come in and they would say like, you know, you know, this is what drugs are or whatever. And then I didn't understand the difference between my mom's pack of cigarettes and like drugs. Okay. I would be like, oh, yeah. Like my mom has that. Yeah. My mom's got that. So, do you do this of a crack pipe when you're like, when I was at home, I didn't know the difference. And what are these people saying when you're like, oh, yeah, we have all that at home? They were probably about to call my mom or like call the police or something because they were very concerned about. I remember me and other kids. I bet. I bet. And they were like questioning us after and I was like, no, it's like at the gas station, like we go to the gas station and I wait in the car while she goes in the gas station. I made it worse, probably. Yeah. Like does a drug deal? Right. And I'm in the car. Kids tell everything. They do. Well, my weird thing was I was terrified of the car wash. So like anytime we went through the car wash, I literally would get under the seats,

7:13like a white screen, like try to escape. I don't know why I was terrified of the car wash very weird. And that wasn't an activity that, you know, somebody could have just done without you? Well, they started too after I was as good as saying like they just made you do it. Like it was weird. Like I would be with family friends and then like somebody's mom would go through the car wash, didn't know that I had this strange fear and like the parent is like, come pick her up because I don't know why she has like, it was very weird. And then my other one was I was terrified of being left alone. And like you could not leave me in the car to go into the gas station. I dated one time and I told everybody that she abandoned me. And the sad part about this is like, that's all it's all deep rooted. It really is. Like that's because of, you know, losing your parents and whatever, like that's, that's to go, wow, wow. But like all this stuff has like a deeper meaning. No, it does. Jason, what was yours? Um, I've heard so many. I don't know which one was your shoes for me to pinpoint. But I will say like you, this is my first one that I was also very codependent. Like if I ever had to go away like overnight, like to my friends house or whatever, it would be in the middle of the night.

8:13I'm glad my parents come pick me up. Like I never made it so that I don't even know what like, I'm still in therapy for that. But I think like, I used to like, like, be on the carpet, that would happen a lot too. We talked about that. I would also like make believe play really weird things. Like I had monkey bars in my back yard and I would like lay on them and pretend like I was rose on Titanic when they're on the ship, like going down just Titanic was my favorite movie. So I could just imagine like my parents looking out and being like, what is he doing? Like he's not playing on the swings or the monkey bars or the trampoline like, come get me Jack. I'm just weak. Titanic. Disaster. Hold your breath. That would be what I am. It's very weird. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. What did you say to that? There's nothing to say. Kids are weird though. Yeah. So we're watching this from the house being like, our son's gay.

9:15Well, in the 90s, sadly, that's what people thought, but we've evolved, thank God. The dare project was a police multi-level marketing pyramid scheme. It was. It was the dear kid of the year. Don't tell me that. Don't take it from my boy. I'm reading it. I have no way to verify that. Not too much of my first award. I told the dare officer that my dad smokes the skunk smell, but only in the garage. The dare officer knew my parents, so he called them to tell them not to do things that will be repeated. Yeah. That's real though. Damn, kid. Got to hide from your kids and your husband who said that. My sister sneaks out to the garage and wonder how they explains the skunk smell out there. Yeah. A lot of parents are sneaking away these days. I think so.
