Ramblings of a Restless Mind

17 - Eunice Part 2
===

Jen: [00:00:00] a dragon, a lochness monster. A fairy in a wizard. Walking to a bar. We're running shit.

Yes. Okay. Yes, we're running shit. Amen.

What's up guys? We didn't leave. You did. We didn't. We're still sitting here. Welcome back. We were having so much fun and our mind just rambled and we went all over the place. Yes. That we didn't even get to Eunice, like questionnaire and like the, and we played a fun game. The important go back and play that fun game.

Important information. Yeah. The substative part. So if you're just [00:01:00] tuning in for part two of this with, with Eunice go back and listen to part one. It.

Joe: Hopefully it won't help you with this part, but you should. No,

Jen: it's entertaining. You'll laugh. Yeah. There's no clues. There's no like, learn some new words.

DeJah: You'll understand why I can't stop saying gnarly. Yes.

Eunice: Or what the hell Lima is. You don't know. You better help yacht

Jen: anyway.

Eunice: Better have some

Jen: listen to it. You'll learn a thing or two, or not at least. Hopefully you'll laugh, but anyway, so now we're gonna get into it. We're gonna, we're gonna dive into a little more of who Eunice is.

Yeah. We expressed our love already, but so we talked about all the things that you are, and it doesn't even encapture all, all of who you are, mom, wife, daughter, sister, friend, teacher. You're also a constant student. Yeah. You are, you stay curious and you wanna learn all the things, and it's one of the things I love about you.

So in that we always ask. Folks that come on and, and are bless us with their time of what do you wanna ramble about and, and why? Okay. And, and you put why people [00:02:00] do what they do. Bam. You have stories to support it. Yes. An old man doing old man things. Yes. It's about Joe. No. No,

Eunice: because to be fair, to be fair, I am the oldest one in the room.

Not by much. Crickets. Crickets. Good. Yeah. Only get you by a pull up. Mm-hmm. That's my favorite saying. Only have a pull up. Like if we were in the same room together, I got my pull up. You're stacking around. I'm trying to hang out with you as a baby. Like see, when you said that, I'm pictured like pull up at a gym, our

DeJah: little toddler

Eunice: pulse.

That makes way

Jen: more

Eunice: sense. Yeah. And our day didn't have pull up. She just had cloth diapers. Correct? Correct. But velcro maybe. I always tell people, like when I'm just a little bit older, I'm like, oh, I only got you by a pullup because most of the younger generations get it because that's what mm-hmm.

How they train it. Right. So, but yeah. So I only got you by a pullup,

DeJah: so I'll let you have it if you want it.

Eunice: Yeah. I only got you by a cloth driver. There you go. There you go. Stagger around just a little bit

Jen: longer old man doing old man things. Yes. And when privilege takes a [00:03:00] backseat to kindness Yes.

Humanity. And so I am very curious for both of these things. All right. So I can't wait to explore 'em. So let's go,

Eunice: let's go. Okay. So these both happened in the same week. Oof. Okay. So the, the old man and one of the stories of privilege taking a backseat. Those happened in the same fucking day. Welcome to the life of Eunice.

So, short, short, short, minification as I mentioned in the last episode, I'm a woman of color melanin and growing up in the south is a unique experience. Growing up with parents who grew up doing drinks, segregation, my mother literally was denied a job. Based on the color of her nail beds, real hashtag stuff.

And so like I will always honor our senior citizens and our elderly because they're living history. You don't get that kind of information in a book. You get that from lived experience, which is now a term that we're learning more about. But so growing up in the [00:04:00] South, and I applaud my parents. My mom is rest in, I, you know, some say rest in peace, some say rest in power.

My mom would be rest in play. Mm-hmm. Because that woman had the biggest heart. Mm-hmm. Loved children. So she is playing with everyone's beautiful young souls in heaven. Growing up in the south.

Neither of them taught me to feel a certain way to any other race than my own. That, 'cause you know, unfortunately my skin walks into the room before I do. So they never wanted me and they sat me down and told me this once I was much older. But they're like, we never wanted you to have a chip on your shoulder towards the world.

So that being said, you have to be taught certain things for safety.

DeJah: Mm-hmm.

Eunice: And to not take things personally or you will build a chip on your shoulder. In the last episode you referenced George Floyd, and I wanna say your family made me feel so safe and heard. [00:05:00] Oh there was so much of our, my existence that I was like.

I don't know how to share this with them because any other time I felt like I was in a comfortable space and share this with someone who is, and I don't like to say melanin, non melanin, but I don't like to call people any other thing if I haven't asked them what the, what they identify as. So someone who hasn't had the same experience based on melanin.

Like I don't know how to, when I've tried to share experiences, it was mitigated.

DeJah: Well, that's because as a white person Yeah. You see the world from, as a white person, to be fair. And that's how I recognize, like you don't, it literal cannot.

Eunice: And that's okay. You can't. Right, right. And so that's how I, but at then you get to a point where like, I just can't share this.

Mm-hmm. But I can share this with other people, like hanging out with my family or other people of color. Like this shit happened to me. So anyway, I say that to say with these stories, like I'm always careful about when I, myself now say things about like. This is perceived as privilege because this person doesn't know, because this is how [00:06:00] they were brought up.

Right. And some people get very offended that they don't understand privilege doesn't mean I grew up with a gold, oh, a silver. Silver spoon in my mouth. Mm-hmm. Yep. Privilege means, for instance, I acknowledge being born in the United States, I have access to better healthcare. Number one, I have access to running water in my home and electricity.

Other people don't have that. But I, and you can never do anything different. Correct? Right. So that's privilege. It doesn't necessarily mean I grew up with a silver spoon mouth to the fuck fight it. People equate

Jen: privilege with wealth and yess not, and it's

Eunice: two different things. So old man doing an old man thing.

Mm-hmm. I go to my doctor's appointment seven 30 in the morning. There's only three of us. I arrive early because contrary to when I'm off the clock and I arrive like. I'm there when I'm supposed to be there. Try to get there early. That's my goal. So there's only three of us in the room. I'm the only person of color, and I will [00:07:00] lovingly say, jokingly, say Chip in the cookie.

That's my thing. So like I'm only chipping the cookie and I am perceived to be younger than I am. And I've had to acknowledge that, that, and I'm not trying to be egotistical, it's based on how I've been treated and observations for her. Mm-hmm. So. You know, I'm sitting there like, you know, just chilling, y'all.

I shit you. Now I've been dying to tell you guys this story, old man, and he didn't look as old as he, his mannerisms eventually manifested. Okay? So he's sitting there while we're waiting to be called and stuff. And I don't know if he was doing it before I became, I got in the room, all of a sudden I start hearing, oh, the Grumble, the Haram thing.

Oh, the loud grumble. And I work in healthcare. I'm used to all ages, the loud grumble, and there's only three of us. So it's really quiet. The only thing you hear is the AC running. Because you know the glass, like I've worked behind that glass. Mm-hmm. But we're so grateful for it 'cause we [00:08:00] close it and when people act to shit and we're makes the thing of like a Ventura when he

Yes. So all hear is the AC run and you just hear this old man and then he audibly says words, but I can't quite hear him 'cause he's too far away. Right.

Because we make eye contact for a half second. I'm like, this is my way of letting you know, bruh. I hear you. Right, right. Cricket stops for a second and then it begins so old man doing old things that it was just. I can't convey it. It was hilarious in that moment because then I'm like, watch, I just had this feeling.

I was like, depending on what he's for, depending on his provider, he's probably gonna be the last one to go. Right. And he probably woke up at four in the morning for this seven 30 appointment. But it was just, it was precious and I thought it would [00:09:00] land a lot more hilarious than, because I'm dying laughing inside.

I'm like on my phone, like, come, so did you know what he was saying? That's what I wanna know. I'm, what was he saying? Don't know.

DeJah: Oh man. Doing old man things. Just old man carrum thing to himself. Yes. And then somebody switched off

Joe: Fox News in the waiting room. Yes.

DeJah: That's what it was. He had to think his own independent thoughts and he was struggling.

And the best

Eunice: part is the lady that got there, like she got taken. And then I got taken. So then he's in the waiting room by himself and I'm like, I can only imagine. That conversation was like to himself. Yes. Once we were all outta the

Jen: room. Wait, so wait, so did he, hold on. So I need clarity. Was he patient there or was he a provider?

He, he was a patient. Okay. Be with us the whole time. I'm thinking he's a provider, like in the, and then you couldn't hear because the glasses. Oh, okay. Sorry. I kind of like That's that D ADHD thing. Yeah. There's three of us in

Eunice: the waiting [00:10:00] room.

DeJah: He was one of 'em. He was one of 'em. Yep. Sitting over there. Just, just old man, don old man things.

Mm-hmm. Old man don, old man. Blazing Saddles. Just a room full of Yes.

Eunice: And then I could tell he had said a word. It was just, we were too far for me to hear what he had said. But I was like also curious, like what you're talking about.

DeJah: Yeah. Who are you

Eunice: talking to? Do you need to be heard? Yeah.

DeJah: I'm here. Like, no, I've, I've had that, I've had that old man experience and I think it's either, are you trying, are you trying to engage me?

In conversation. Are you trying to get me? Yeah. To give you more than a half second. I hear you. You also

Eunice: got the eye contact was also like

DeJah: mm-hmm.

Eunice: Like a little bit of an annoyance.

DeJah: Yeah.

Eunice: And I'm like, are you annoyed by skin color? Are you annoyed by just everyone else in the room? Yeah. Annoyed by breathing.

Yes. Like you expected to be the only one here at seven 30. I'm sorry, but no. Yeah. So yeah. No, only nos.

Jen: Maybe his. Tell you white, these weren't folded, right? Who knows? Yeah.

Eunice: It was just so hilarious. Yeah. It was just hilarious moment. And so that's why I had to [00:11:00] tag it as, oh,

Jen: old man and old man thinks old man.

So white people

Eunice: do what they do.

Jen: Yep. I dunno. Yep.

Eunice: And then

Jen: when privilege takes a backseat to kindness,

Eunice: so the first one. Mm oh, so right after that appointment I go for my nail appointment. No, no. Yeah. Pedicure specifically place. I researched just to be on the safe side. It doesn't open until nine 30.

And I'm like, but where I'm going, where it is 20 minutes, 30 minutes. Like, why drive back home when it's only eight minutes to get there? So I get there and I'm sitting in the parking lot doing some things doctoral work. Mm-hmm. I'm like, I'm gonna wait till nine 30. Mm-hmm. When they say they're open, now, they leave their open sign on and I don't think they realize they, they do misrepresentation.

Right. And then, but it looked like the lights were off. And so then I happened to look up at 9 0 8 and see someone walking towards the door. In a hurry. And I'm like, well, if the door's open, does that mean they're open? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And they go right on in. So I'm like, well, I wanna be [00:12:00] next. You know, I don't wanna be, so I walk up and by the time I get the door's like nine 15, so whatever, and I notice on the door it still says nine 30.

'cause I know sometimes the Google and the Times. Mm-hmm. Yep. Yep. Mm-hmm. So I get in and I sit down. But I noticed as I'm walking in the door, two of the people that work there are trying to come in with their stuff. And so I'm like, oh, I'll let you go in first. And they were gonna let me in. I'm like, no, no, no, go ahead.

Go ahead. It's fine. And so, no, no, no, let me in. So I sit down and hilariously, because I was pleasant to them or happy to them, you know, kind to them. The first person, they look at me instead of the other person that was there before me and was like, whatcha here for? And I'm like, oh, pedicure. She you in and then they look at the other, you have an appointment, like their demeanor completely changed.

Mm-hmm. And then it, the person was like, no. And they're like, what are you here for? I'm like, pet, you're okay. You both can come back at the same time. Like, cool. Like I would've waited till nine 30. 'cause technically I've been in [00:13:00] that situation. Right. You know? So we get in. I got done first.

DeJah: Mm. And I'm

Eunice: like,

DeJah: kindness.

Smart kindness does work. Yes.

Eunice: Also quick. PSA.

Jen: Yeah. Keep. It is not hard. Ladies and gentlemen, keep your Google My Business, which is what shows you what your hours are. Thank you. Yeah. Up. Keep up. Up to date. Businesses don't understand how crucial that is. First of all, Google the algorithm, all the things, it's important.

Yeah. But just, and then as a, from a consumer standpoint, 'cause Mom and I recently. Encountered this with a salon, with a nail salon as well, is that it was the business hours open to later than what they actually were open on a Sunday. And so, but luck, what ha It was, it was conflicting. Like their website said one thing, Google my business says, or, and Google my business for clarification.

So. Your knowledge panel when you Google something and on the right hand side of the screen or on your mobile, obviously it's gonna be in the front and center of your screen where it shows like the hours and the pictures and the reviews. Yes. And all of that one is called your Google Knowledge panel. Mm.

And so [00:14:00] that's where the hours are. Keep that shit up to date. It is you. It is real easy, really easy to change and update as you need to.

Eunice: And I like to credit that business and like I talked with your bro about this, like they, that might be their main entrance. Like they may not have a back entrance.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So they're not expecting necessarily the people to be there. Right there. The only reason why I went in, because. I, the privilege thing could apply to me, but like I was like, well, if they're taking people, I don't wanna be. Held up that much longer too, until everybody showed up. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

But that might be the only entrance and they didn't think that. Yeah, because I've had someone be entirely rude to me when I worked at a facility because they followed us in through the employee entrance was not the main entrance, but they had caught on because everybody else was waiting at the front where the main entrance was.

Lemme follow where the employees are. Oh, isn. That's just, yeah, that person was a douche. That's terrible. They were a douche bag. So what's the second instance? 'cause there's two instances. Yes. This one's not so fun, but it's where humanity wins. So I'm at a state conference and I'm wearing a lanyard and I'm in [00:15:00] executive board name tag.

Jen: A k, a. She's a badass.

Eunice: Yeah. Appreciate dress business. Not that I have to clarify or justify that. You should have to, no. Yeah. But I'm prefacing it for a reason. Got my suitcase with me because when things end and when checkout ends, don't match up. Right. So I had to take myself with me. Mm-hmm. I get on, and I've been at this conference for like two days by now.

This is our last day. I never had an issue and I've been to many state conferences in this entire state. Never encompassed or encountered what happened to me. So I get on the elevator,

Jen: only chip in the cookie. We appreciate the chips, by the way.

Eunice: I mean, everybody lives with a chocolate chip, let's be honest.

So I roll in not thinking anything, but oh my God, y'all, y'all would've thought like a martian or like gray alien walked in. You know, I can't, I like to ask person Mars attacks. You don't have to say specific

Jen: hotel or whatever, but like [00:16:00] what part? You said state conference. I'm assuming it's North Carolina.

I can I ask what part of the state you were in? Western

Eunice: State of North Carolina. Western.

Jen: Okay. Okay. I will say

Eunice: mountainous. Mm-hmm. And roll onto this elevator and only one person. To be fair. Mm-hmm. To be fair, to be fair, was the one that letter that freaked the fuck out that I was on this elevator at like seven 30 in the morning.

God forbid. Yeah. I mean, when I say freak the fuck out, like it was palpable. And I'm like, oh shit. Like, 'cause this person was like, and like just stared at me and I'm like, so then you're in this circumstance. As a person of color, specifically woman, there's that archetype of angry black woman, right? Mm-hmm.

So if I pop off, I'm justifying whatever that archetype is. Mm-hmm. Yeah. But it's not okay how you're treating me. Correct. So I'm like, all right. All right. So in my mind, I'm going through this like script that plays out in your head, like, okay, this person does this. This is what you do. Yeah. Right. This person does like those telemarketers.[00:17:00]

DeJah: This is my flow chart of responses. Okay. Okay. Smart. Mm-hmm.

Eunice: So looking at me. Now. Mind you, this person looked like they were four sheets to the wind already at seven 30 and they had some of teeth going on. Their skin was so leathery with the wrinkles. I can

Jen: only, I, listen, I'm not gonna drop names, but I can only imagine that this was on a casino reservation situation.

Yeah. Ding,

Eunice: ding, ding. Yep. Personally and no one else in the elevator got questioned. I got questioned. What are you doing here? I'm like, and in my mind, so this is where my mentality of who the fuck are you to ask me, right? Mm-hmm. Right. But I'm also wearing a representation that's not myself.

Mm-hmm. That I don't want to get back to the hotel, this person from this person, this aside, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah. So I'm like, all right. All right. Well, I'm here at a state professional society. We're here to protect you from people who are not licensed to do what they're doing. And you know Yeah. So you [00:18:00] drop

Jen: the knowledge.

Yeah.

Eunice: Mm-hmm. And

Jen: a

Eunice: and a

Jen: microdose. 'cause God forbid, oh girl, they couldn't understand it, right?

Eunice: No. So I'm just, you know, this is what we're doing, blah, blah, blah. And I'm still excited because I'm excited about what I do. Yes. Literal audible grunt comes out. Okay. So as I'm taking your breath and get ready.

Another white male, a decent white male, shall I say a decent white man? What I'm curious,

Joe: was he holding queso,

Eunice: right? I do. So wish maybe this person would've been chilled the fuck out because it made everyone else in the elevator uncomfortable. You could see the heads go all the mm-hmm. Person. Hey man, literally, and then she's wearing a tag.

She's dressed like this. She's got. What's it matter to you? Mm. Like literally out this person's mouth. And I'm like, thank you. Sweet Jesus. And I'm like, how long is this elevator? Right? Oh my God. It's like one floor, but it takes

Jen: like five hours it seems like. Yeah. So

Eunice: then, you [00:19:00] know, so kindness. Intercede and then carries forth as I'm, 'cause you know, in my mind, let me just take one suitcase and I take the giant suitcase, put everything and everything.

It's heavy. So I trying to person, lemme help you with that. So I'm like, thank you. Like, like the thank you. I could not exude enough. But the fact that that person interjected and was like, what? What, how, where is music coming from? Phone. That's my phone. It sure is. That's We need that. Need Halsey. Beautiful stranger.

Don't copyright us. That was, that was not intended. It just had, that was a beautiful stranger that helped me in Oh, oh my gosh. At was a beautiful stranger to, so thank you. That was so weird. Halsey. Doey was, that was intentional. We just saw, we paid a lot of money to see you. You were amazing concert.

Amazing. Well also wonder that it was amazing we were there. I promise. Well, and

Jen: I'll just say in those experiences, Eunice, I appreciate you sharing that and, and being transparent and being vulnerable in that because it does take a certain level of vulnerability. And what grinds my gears [00:20:00] is that yeah, love it.

What pisses me off so bad is that just because it's like folks can't conceptualize that that is an experience that exists because they haven't experienced it. Correct. And, and that's just not you. And I'm not discre, so it's just hate to hate because I guarantee, yes, I guarantee.

DeJah: If I stepped in that elevator right, that man would've done the same thing to me, possibly with my Mohawk and my tattoos, possibly because I get the same old white man.

Love to gimme that. You're don't be judged by Jesus girl. Right. That look of hate. And you just, you know, give 'em a smile. Yeah. And like, and someone won't even talk to, yeah. Won't even acknowledge like, well already then sir. Hate is hate. Yeah. Hate is, hate is hate. If you don't fall into there. Little cookie cutter of what they want to.

I like you just talk about it doesn't, doesn't matter. Yeah. Yeah. They're gonna hate you. Yeah. Yeah. Because they're so

Jen: vly insecure. We're back to that. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Underwriting theme. Yeah. And it's just the inability to understand that. Just because it's not your experience [00:21:00] doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Exactly. And I think that, and that, that that transcends or that just being something different can exist. Mm-hmm. And that transcends so many different experiences. You know, sexual assault people of color being discriminated against or I have been followed in stores. L-G-B-T-Q being dis discriminated against Yes.

Females and all of the things that, that they have to deal with as well. We, I'm part of that we broad umbrella. Yeah. It, it, it is. I, I mean, and, and what I also want to say is that. Men have their own experiences as too, right? Correct. We just had a whole beautiful episode a couple episodes ago now about men from a male mental health provider and there is such a stigma in our society Yes.

About men and mental health and how it's not a thing and that you shouldn't emote. No. And Joey, we love you. You can show emotions. We, we support you, your safe space. Yes. And, and I don't, and that men

DeJah: can experience sexual assault as well. Absolutely. Preach it a hundred percent. They can experience same traumas, emotional abuse, stigma, abuse.

Yep. And physical abuse. Yes.

Eunice: I've had to have those conversations with la Yeah. Because I'm like, dude, it is not okay for you [00:22:00] to be treated X, Y, or Z. Yep. No matter who your partner is. And a lot of times it's put on males only exhibit this. Yes. Mm-hmm. When they're, I have known and seen cases of. Yes.

Females. Yes.

Jen: Or or or male on male. Like Correct. When you were like, we were like homosexual relationships or situations or whatever, like it exists as well. And so it's just that underwriting theme of like, just because you have not directly experienced, it does not discredit it or mean it is not real and therefore you should not discredit it in other people.

Mm-hmm. And I think except that's actively taught in some of our cultures. Yeah. Right.

Eunice: Like, but here we acknowledge you. That podcast acknowledges you. Yep. Faux show. Faux show. Thank

Jen: you. Thank for sharing. And, and I, I, I, no, literally

DeJah: you're like, you're just describing it and I'm standing in that elevator with you, like Yes.

Feeling that feeling of that. The leather eyes burning, like drunk leather eyes. Eyes. Especially like, like the last day, you're like,

Eunice: oh, I can smell your judgment from here. I'm [00:23:00] just being, you know? Yeah. Oh funny. F other. Now this one's a little bit more breent, a little bit more brevity, but like why people do what they do.

I'm literally coming here, right. And I was telling you about how I took the back roads. That's what, mm-hmm. Google took us. That's a thing that makes me go home sometimes. But, and I see these kids on these, I don't know if you've seen 'em, but they're like motorized sitting scooters. Yes, yes. I don't like to call 'em bikes 'cause they're not, they're not the are They're you talking electric bike?

Yeah. Or yeah. Yeah. But they're sitting and it's not like in the shape of a bike.

DeJah: Okay.

Eunice: Yeah. You know what I mean? Mm-hmm. So I see 'em sitting and I'm on this, what I would consider busy two lane, small highway. And I'm thinking they're gonna go across 'cause they're waiting like to cross and I'm thinking they're gonna go into the other neighborhood.

Mm-hmm. No. These fuckers get on the main road. I'm like, we're doing 50. Yeah. Where? And they have no helmets. What is you doing? I'm like, Ooh. And in my imaging world, I'm like, that's a TBI waiting to happen. That's a couple of boasted bones. Let's pray you live.

Jen: Listen, I know we're not gonna talk about too much about what you do.

Please don put your feet on the dash. I won't have, I won't get [00:24:00] that. Like you're, but we were literally dri Deja and I, I'm pointing, I'm like touching and pointing daja. You can't see me. But we were driving, I dunno where the fuck we're driving. We drive everywhere. And she was chilling and she put her feet up on the dash.

Don't, I said, when you said don't do that, you don't do after my surgery and I had

DeJah: to have my foot elevated. Yes. That, that's, it was down falling the floor. But we did, we had this whole, I was like, don't worry, Eunice door, Eunice, I got this, I got, I got my

Jen: head on a swivel. She was, was, she was like bracing herself because she, as soon as I mentioned it, 'cause she, as we mentioned in a recent episode, she deja had surgery not too long ago.

Yeah. And bionic, no, no, no. And so her right foot needed to be elevated. This was right after surgery. She, I mean, it needed to be elevated for several, several days. And so I was corralling her around to different places and referring me, yes. And Yeah. So we faced that, but it was, but I, but I love that, like because of your education Yeah.

And your passion for what you do. Yeah. That medical imaging hashtag yes. That you, and in the

Eunice: state of North Carolina, they're not licensed yet, but if you see any advocacy, please push for it because your loved ones could be X-rayed by people or imaged by [00:25:00] people diagnosing for cancer. Right. Or imaging just for diagnosis of what happened to you.

And they're the people who just learned how to check you in. That's so,

Jen: yeah. I'm gonna need you to Eunice to fund a personal imaging machine. Yeah. So I can just come to your house that I

Eunice: entrusted, that I'm taken care of. Well, I have to have a, see, going back to ethics, you have to have a provider.

That's why even where I educate, we cannot edu, we cannot image humans because you have to have a license. For that by the state. Mm-hmm. And have to be approved. So like, we have to, you know, we've had people, I love them meaning the best, and they're like, Ooh, what about doing this for our students? And I'm like, Ooh, do you have a doctor that's gonna write notes?

Yeah. Yeah. And then, ooh, we have to go through the state to get a license. You have all red tape humans, you got, yeah. And then your machines. It's a whole different, whole different ball of wax. But we did have a fun incident when. Liam, I said his full name. We were playing Yeah, it his full name, just his first name.

It's fine. And we go, he, it was for his birthday [00:26:00] and we were at a trampoline park and the rule on the one said, please, only one person at a time. None of us did that because we were celebrating with him. I left it with a concussion. A legit fair concussion that day, to be fair. And notice it's changed names, but we'll come back to that.

But anyway, so we, we do this and bless my son. You know, it bounces in a weird way and he falls off and he's like, I just broke my leg. Oh my God, I remember it in the center of the facility. So many Swar team members come running. All have lost their color. All are gray. Oh my God. Because he's like, I just broke my leg.

And so I'm like, well let me, lemme just palpate it. I am not a medical provider. I've not done that amount of education in that realm maybe. Mm-hmm. But very quickly by numbers, maybe like. Maybe you didn't recollec, you're fine. And then everybody, and I love it because I don't know if it was Steve, I think it was Steve, your, and he goes, or your mom.

But I more or less, Steve goes, what do you think? What do you, what do you And I go, well, without my machine. Yeah. Right. Like carry that around [00:27:00] with me, me and my, and I don't diagnosed even with my machine. The only thing we're allowed to do ethically is tell. The provider, Hey, escalate this case. Please look at this case.

Yeah. That's all we're ethically allowed to do.

Jen: I mean, really, we probably just needed to cut it off at that point. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We just, just, I mean, am Amputational is the only option.

Eunice: Yes. I mean mm-hmm. It's whole, you know, they've come a long way with Bionic. They have.

DeJah: They have. It's amazing's. Amazing.

Jen: [00:28:00] I almost dread asking this question. Now I'm being completely honest, but we'll continue. It's okay. That's a lonely party of like, what are we up to now? I think we're up. I, I think maybe I have two. I think it's 2, 2, 2. Everyone. Yeah. I have, I have Topher and I have, by the way, his name is Topher Grace.

Yes. Oh to, oh, I said Tofu McGuire. Yes. Was because it was Toby Ma. That's right. To Spiderman hashtag. It was all the Spider-Man's. All

Eunice: right. But to For Grace? Yes. To, for Grace. He was actually Venom Spider-Man, that Topher Grace, and he was in that seventies show.

Jen: Okay. But yes, that's right. Sounds Ben Hardy was a much better venom.

She's old. Let's be real. I have Joe's wife. Ken can confirm. Yep. Also in my camp. All right, Eunice. Almost as important as when a privilege [00:29:00] takes a backseat to kindness. Yes. Is a hot dog a sandwich?

Eunice: No. No. And it's because the Oxford language, the definition is it has to be placed between two pieces of bread and other fillings to include cheese, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

But I did continue to say, but there's room enough for all of us in our thoughts and opinions, and I say that because I have been confronted with. When I challenge something and it's like, how dare you challenge this notion? Yes, but there's rooma for all of us. But no, by definition you can be in a hot dog together with us, not to mention as

DeJah: one.

That's

Eunice: right. Yes. If you really wanna call it a sandwich, and I've seen this done, you go to a cylinder block place if you want a hot dog sandwich, and I do air quotes, they cut the hot dog in two. They put it between two pieces of bread. Yes. They take it out of the bun. But you're allowed to think whatever you want.

You're still loved. Oh, can I go back to my original question though? I still stand [00:30:00] with a sandwich is fine. I have, I have an, I have a, I have a question that I meant to call in, so I'm doing it live. Oh, live in air. Oh, okay. I meant to do that when we brought in the whole a question IRL. Okay. I was like, my promise.

Yeah. My original prompt was like the, the whole, you know, I'm privilege takes the backseat 'cause it should, but hi, long time listener, love the podcast. Here's my question. If you could be a supernatural creature, not werewolf, not vampire, but like supernatural creature,

DeJah: what would it be? Hmm.

Eunice: And I'm gonna give you my answer.

DeJah: Go ahead.

Eunice: You want me to go first,

DeJah: please?

Eunice: Well, yeah, 'cause we need time to think so. Okay.

DeJah: Please. And this is the reason why, Joe, I'm

Joe: gonna need to hear the question again.

DeJah: Joe Joke. Supernatural creatures, but not a vampire, not a werewolf. Not that supernatural, but more like, supernatural, but not that, not more.

Eunice: What's a fantasy? If you could be a fan fantasy creature. Okay. Okay. So I would be a dragon. Brilliant. And the reason is I, I imagine myself, and this is the reason why, 'cause general know [00:31:00] we, we talk family stuff. I don't like financial commitments. I hate. Purchasing a vehicle because that's that long time commitment.

Right? Right. Like I, like, I hate promising that I'm gonna give you this amount of money for a certain amount of time. Hate it. Hate it. I don't care if it's a dollar. I hate it. And so I was like, UDIs. You might be a dragon for that reason. Like you wanna set on your little gold hoard goal. Yes. And especially 'cause I send her this cute little social media meme and I showed you the picture of it.

Like, I'm not a book fair, I'm a book dragon. Yes. Like I'm hoarding my books. Yes. So I've got my coins in one little place and I got my books and I'm just sitting there and then, and it goes back to like our love languages we joked about like, 'cause I, I brought you guys that. Mm-hmm. Like, oh look at these projects.

Gifts. Thank you. So I think that goes back to like, that's why gifting is a love language. Mm-hmm. And receiving gifts from me. And, and you know, people make that sound seem like it's materialistic. Yeah. You could literally give me a note that said, I thought of you today. Ooh, thank you. And I'm [00:32:00] putting it my little hoard as a dragon.

Just love it. And I wanna be able to love it. Love it. And if I feel like blank, I'm gonna flame

DeJah: out. Like I love it.

Eunice: Don't let your town come for me. 'cause I'm gonna mind my business. You mind your business, but you come for my gold. It's all or my eggs, my people, the things you protect. Yes. That's, that's, and I might have a town I protect.

We That's offwhite. I agree. Yeah. Yep. I like it. He is a dragon. Mm-hmm. And I was born

DeJah: Yes,

Eunice: yes, yes. I was born year dragon. So that kind of adds Oh yeah. Yeah.

DeJah: Nice. My ass is a monkey. Hey. Oh, but this, I dunno what Amazing

Eunice: about

DeJah: to

Eunice: find out though

DeJah: by the Yeah. What's your, what's your, what's your by the grace of.

Fairy spirit make believe you asking me, you're asking Joe. You man. Joe.

Jen: Joe, do you have your answer?

Joe: No, I was also, you were gonna answer for the,

Eunice: the Chinese, so yeah, honestly, I think we can compare what you think your fa, like what is your, what resonates you, what I feel, and then you can do that if you.

Jen: So [00:33:00] I think supernatural being, for me, and this is probably partly because of all the books Deja got me addicted to I would be a Fay a Fay folk. I'd be a fairy. I was gonna say, you're a very, and I think it's because, or Fay, 'cause you know mm-hmm. Yeah. I, yes. Digging deep into particularly these books, but then I also think, which is we've talked about before on the show, but Sarah J.

Moss, you beautiful, beautiful human being, amazing writer, author and a court of thorns and roses. The way that she explores fairies. And, and the human fairy dynamic. Yes. But then also when you think of like Lord of the Rings and the way Yes. And I think that very folk are, they're very outwardly stoic.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. But they welcome feelings and they advocate for all beings and, and that, and then they, they have their tribe and things like that. And I have learned through my journey in therapy that I am. A much better advocate of other folks, other people expressing their feelings and their [00:34:00] vulnerability than I am a practitioner of it, but I welcome it.

And I, I always wanted to be that same safe space. So that side of the fairy piece. Then I also feel like fairies have their, like, very pointed thing that they're good at or that they sell in. Yeah. And I'm not a ma. I'm not a master of all trades. And, and I I'm gonna sidebar real quick because that quote, master of all trades, wait.

Mm-hmm. Jack of all trades. Of All of trades of all trades, master of none. Of none of none. Yeah. But that's not the full quote. No. Mm-hmm. The rest of it is, oh, but is a, is better than none, or something like that. Oh. And so, I think that I, I, I don't wanna be all the things to all the people, but what I am good at, I want to excel in and be good at.

And I wanna, you know, I wanna figure that out. And so, and then I also just wanna be fun and flighty. I love it. Love it. So like, all the things. Brilliant. So I'd be a fairy

Eunice: and as a person that, and I didn't even get a chance to delve in, this is a whole nother podcast, but like the d and d stuff. Mm-hmm.

So, I think they don't do fairies, but they do Elvin. Mm-hmm. A lot [00:35:00] like Lord of the Rings. Yeah. And that's where I think there's, they're kind of using them almost interchangeably. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, and I think what you touched on is perfect because like, there's what, elves, night elves. Mm-hmm. High elves, depending on what game you play.

Yeah, what book you read and they have their different, and

Jen: that's just, they do. And that's, and I think that's a, that's an underlying thread, right? Because even in a court of thorns and roses, like each, you have your different kingdoms and you have, they're, they're based off of seasons or Ooh. Like, yep.

Sun in the, like the, the night court and the, you know, all these and all, it's, it's just absolutely fascinating. Yeah. It's just so good. It's so good. Yeah. Mm-hmm. And they have their different powers but they don't. The way that they're talked about is just they're not judged. Judged. Can you tell that we sit around

DeJah: fantasizing this show?

Oh. That we just don't shut the fuck up about this book series and cannot wait to visually experience it. Yeah. Then I go tap it into it. Like, Hey,

Eunice: by the way. Yeah.

Jen: Well, so in a previous episode I talked about how Deja doesn't have Instagram or doesn't have any social [00:36:00] media. Nope. And how I will screen record something that I'm passionate about that she must see and text it to her.

And it was about. The characters. It was a, it was a New Girl episode, the TV show. New Girl. Yes. I love that show. But they, somebody was like, it was this, I don't know what episode and all that kind of stuff of, of New Girl, but it was, they were putting the names of the characters in this, this book series.

Oh

Eunice: oh. Please share. 'cause I'm a new girl

Jen: person, even though I plan on reading that series. Yeah. Like over the different characters. And it was so spot on and hilarious that she, I mean she absolutely had to see it. Yeah. Yeah. So it was just, it was, it was great. So anyway, I'd be fa folk. Wonderful. So, and why not?

Because pointy ears, I have red hair, so there you go. Pointy ears would look good with that. I love it. I don't know. I love it. Agreed. What Joe Fair? I have

Eunice: earrings for that by the way.

Joe: So, I guess I would probably choose Wizard. I think it t cool to be magical. Yes. And just get stuff. But I have kind, how do you have a pointed hat in this scenario?

But I have kind of bad luck, so I probably Are you Dan Alf? I'd probably only be like the kinda wizard that has one spell and it'd be some lame like moisten.

DeJah: Moisten. I like it. So like in the case [00:37:00] of fire, like one or twist you night, somebody becomes a bucket of water. You know what? In the case of fire I can

Joe: slightly help

DeJah: slightly move to Arizona.

When you're like needing to seal an envelope, they're just minding your there. He's just sitting

Eunice: somewhere in a hill and they're like, wizard, wizard, we need you to land. I got you.

Jen: When stamps get too expensive. Yes. We're not too far from stamp's, been too expensive shows you are amazing.

Eunice: He should be called Jo ESUs.

The wizard sounds like

Joe: attack. I can like make their, their feet moist and then they get uncomfortable. What is

DeJah: jungle rot? Fuck 'em up

Eunice: man.

DeJah: Cannot fight. Instant athlete. Foot done fight. What the heck? I get, get captured and sent to prison

Joe: and then I spend six years moist rock. I gotta, I gotta say, I'm gonna stick everybody.

I'm gonna stick with my

DeJah: gut. That instantly while you were saying that, but it's not a vampire and you're not a werewolf. I'm gonna tell you what immediately popped into my mind, and I'm gonna stick with it. I am Nessie. I am the [00:38:00] lochness monster. I love it. I had to pop up and fuck with people or just pop up and have a drink and then go back to my

Eunice: own.

And people are still debating if you exist, God sure. But I like your thing that says. Nessie doesn't believe in you either. That's right. I do have,

Jen: it's Bigfoot, but I, yes, it's, it's exactly. Bigfoot doesn't believe in you either. My, how you feel about that. Mm-hmm. Very similar social

Joe: media presence.

Jen: Yes, yes, yes.

So, well, I love this. We've got the whole like. We've got the gang. We do. We see, we've got a dragon. We've got messy. I, I'm, I'm

DeJah: a, I don't know what I am. A water dragon. You've

Jen: got water. I got the air. Am I a

Joe: water dinosaur? I mean, you. I don't, I'm all of the above. If you need water, I can moisten, you

Jen: can moist.

That's all you got. Yeah. Well, good for you, Joe. Because most men can't. That's right. So. Sh.

Joe: Oh, hi.

Jen: Maybe,

Joe: maybe. This is really crazy.

Eunice: Oh, shit. So how long have you been married again? A lot

Jen: of years. There we go. 2025.

Eunice: Bam. [00:39:00]

Jen: So, so, a a dragon, a lochness monster. A fairy in a wizard. Walking to a bar. We're running shit.

Yes. Okay. Yes, we're running shit. Amen. So, Joe, I have a question as you're in your wizardry,

Joe: as I made a whole TV show about that in my head while you,

Jen: I mean, there was a show called Merlin back in the nineties too, 2000 somewhere. Do you wear like a velvet cloak and Ooh hat with like the stars and the moon?

Like what kind wizard are you? Are you an. Ous Wizard. Oh, great question. Oh, and the

Joe: imagination story. Let me think.

Eunice: No, go back to what our Chinese zodiacs are. I mean, I, I'm curious what everybody's else's is. Yeah,

Joe: I mean, maybe, maybe something cooler since my powers are so lame. Like maybe like, yes.

Not dragon skin, you know? Sorry. That would be rude. Maybe like G lizard, alligator, something that's pretty messy. Fuck, man. Back off,

Jen: right? Alligators. So can it be crocodile skin then? Yes. A tortoise shell.

DeJah: That bird or something? No. Gotta go after us lizard folk shit. It would have to be something we're finding ourselves [00:40:00] in our kids.

Moisture in the air and in the water. Telling you, telling you some People's Wizard kids. I mean, I, Jesus All what's Can vitamin anywhere? Year. All we

Eunice: need is the year. Yes.

Jen: Oh, I'm putting, I'm, I'm giving Google the full birth date. Like it doesn't already have it.

Eunice: Just because sometimes it'll tell you, oh, you

Jen: need a

Joe: year.

Eunice: Yeah,

Joe: I'm good

Eunice: because I'm good at

Joe: math. I'm good. What year? May,

Eunice: because it'll tell you what specific in that year. 'cause I think I'm like a, I'm either a water or a fire dragon, which is fun.

Jen: Hmm. I'm the ox.

Eunice: Yes. Oxes are

Jen: amazing though. Yes. The Chinese zodiac animal, according to Google, excuse me, specifically Gemini ai.

I am the ox, the China Act Zodiac, based on a 12 year cycle.

Eunice: Yes, they are best on 12 years.

Jen: And 1985 falls within the year of the ox. You

Eunice: are an ox. That's awesome. It says I have

Jen: two.

Eunice: I like the oxtail candy.

Joe: How do you have two? I'm curious. I put in May, 1981, it says someone. This is Chet, GPT. Someone born in May.

It's gotta be true. 1981, [00:41:00] 60% of the time falls under one of two Zodiac signs, depending on the specific date. Taurus or Gemini.

DeJah: Oh, okay. That's not, that's Chinese. Chinese

Joe: Zodiac. Oh, the right Chinese thing. I was gonna say, I dunno

Jen: what I just clicked on here, but it says based on Chinese five elements, the year of 1985 belongs to the wood year.

DeJah: Yes

Jen: you are.

Eunice: Wood hawks got wood. Gotta be still. No, but I want some can dream.

Joe: Okay. Fuck. I looked it up. Okay. What are you, so Rooster. I wanted to say the other word, a cat, but I didn't have the,

DeJah: you're a, you're a, we'll. Say it

Jen: for you, Joe.

DeJah: Happy to help. Happy

Jen: to help. Wait, so you're, so you're

DeJah: dragging you dragon,

Jen: you're a monkey.

DA's a monkey. I'm an ox. Mm-hmm. I'm a cat. And you're a cock. You're a, so walk into a bar. Walk a bar. That's, that's a bar I wanna go to.

Fingers. Like, how do I drink a mono? [00:42:00] Oh, you straw.

Joe: You have a straw. Can we

Jen: just

Eunice: bring you

Jen: a bucket, babe?

Joe: We just, I love, this is where it breaks for you.

Jen: You're like,

you're just pecking at shit.

DeJah: Yeah, let's, I mean that

Jen: track as a cop, but he

Eunice: gets that and he gets,

Jen: he gets to.

DeJah: Right. Right in and up and in and out. Telling

Eunice: you like, what the fuck? Oh man. Goodness. Good. Jack can walk. Alright. That was fun. That was fun. Thank you for entertaining. I

Jen: gotta get back on so many tap.

Nope, that's not the thing. I need

DeJah: you all my, my fine, fine. Rambling friends. Yes. Here we are.

Jen: All right. Oh. Know what that look means. Let's see here. Okay, so somehow we went from is a hotdog, a sandwich to what? Your Chinese Zodiac. So that, yes, because that tied back to my other question. That's right. Technically I wanted to lead with what's the last song that got stuck in your head?

Eunice: [00:43:00] Wanna th and to be fair, in the club, I dunno what the words are, but, so the funny story, the exact thing that got stuck in my head is the thing I bombard you and your brother with.

And I'm, I'm gonna start bombarding us so you see it. I'm addicted to the baby podcast. Mm. AI generated stuff on TikTok.

DeJah: Oh, that shit is so funny.

Eunice: That shit is so funny. So for me it started because it into my YouTube. Yes. One of my graduates posted the one I first shared with you guys where they were making fun of the Dr.

Phil episode with who is now Bad Baby. And she's like, catch me on a fat and it's these babies Uhhuh. Yes. The baby Phil eye belt. I peed my pants almost. He had a mustache. Yes. He's like, what ca catch you outside. So anyway. There's the person who created that did these ones for the podcaster, Theo Vaughn, which now because of them, I'm going to watch this man's podcast.

Mm-hmm. 'cause he's fucking hilarious. But anyway, the, the most relevant one, the baby has like a, a, a a what do you call it? Party in the front [00:44:00] party. Mullet. Oh, mullet. Yeah. Business in the front party in the back. Yes. Little taller. And he's like, you see this little AI generate toddler shouting one a, does sh want a thug though? Does, does soy want a thug? And he goes, that's bad baby. And then they flashed to her when she was on the, the Dr. Phil ai, baby generative, right? And he goes, oh my Lord, how about sh Don't wanna a thug. That would be a better song. Sh Don't wanna thug. So ever this in between me and your brother?

That is in our head. And then when I think of this song, like originally done by Lil Wang. Lollipop is where that comes from. But I and my mental rock attitude, think of framing Hanley's cover great cover. Oh. Which is fucking phenomenal. Great cover. Yeah. And I, it adds a, to me, it adds an element of sexy that's not in that song when they do that breakdown and he is like

DeJah: making a, you're

Eunice: like, okay, sir.

Yep.

Jen: Jeremy, where you at? I'll say, Eunice has, since she [00:45:00] has discovered these. Baby ai, oh my God. Things. She sends 'em to me all the time. And you recently sent me one that they did from the, the cast of Friday, the movie Friday. And I fell ice The Well and t They had everybody. Yes. Oh my gosh. Yes. I was, I was dying.

They're so good. Yeah, so good. Yeah. But yeah, so, okay, I'm gonna gonna shout out to

DeJah: Rockstar 'cause you and I send her the same ones. Yes. You guys do love Rockstar. So

Jen: you un sent me this rock. So Rockstar, if you're not familiar, is, is this gentleman who, who voices over animals like, like dogs and Yes.

Primarily dogs that are like Yeah. Creatures.

Eunice: Any animals. Yeah. It's a

Jen: video that they're. Humans have like taken of them. And you said

Eunice: that, and I have a funny story about that too. I got added to his channel because I'm such a huge. Like, or subscriber phone. Yeah. I got added and he got to add, he's like, what do you wanna see?

What do you wanna change in our content? I'm like, oh my God, I'm that much of a fan. What? Oh,

DeJah: nice. But

Eunice: like, we were like, dude, just keep doing what you're doing. And he was like, should I do ai? And everybody was like, [00:46:00] please God, don't do ai. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I didn't weigh in because like, I don't mind ai, especially with what I do we encourage our students to use it if it's another platform that helps you understand, right?

Mm-hmm. But like, I could see where they're like, please don't use ai. And, but he's like, okay, I get it. Don't use it. But I was like so privileged mm-hmm. To be like, oh, you asked my opinion. Yeah. But yeah. Yeah. So anyway, he's hilarious. I love it. I voice

Jen: is over. We all wish that our animals that we love so dearly could actually speak to us.

Right. I'm still waiting and hoping that mine will.

DeJah: Yeah.

Jen: But, and so he, he voices over these things and so in, in the same day. Eunice sent me a particular video and then later that evening Deja sent me the exact same video that Hilarious. And I laughed all over again. Like I hadn't seen it before. Like it, they're so, so funny.

So shout out rockstar for keeping us laughing. Yes. Loving our pets. Yes. All right, so that's your, okay, so last question here on the questionnaire. What's questionnaire? What is the last thing that made you go. Hmm. And you said Pretty much anything on the news makes me go, what the hell? To quote Steven, he YouTube influencer [00:47:00] facts.

First of all, if you haven't watched Steven, he facts on YouTube, please do it. You'll laugh. He's hilarious. Yes. It's amazing. Yes. And to have my nephew quote him is so funny. Oh my gosh. But he's stitches, what the hell? Yeah, I mean, listen, good, bad, indifferent, emotional damage. The news, I, I don't watch it.

I'm gonna be clear. I, I don't watch it. I don't, I don't care what end of the spectrum or political platform you're on, I don't watch it. It's all depressing. I, I don't, it, it's all swayed to make you feel one way or the other. And so I just don't watch it.

Eunice: I. I turn it on early in the mor when I'm off because like during the work I'm not, I'm like, I'm getting ready and I'm hugging, kissing, wishing everyone an awesome day.

And then I'm out the door. But during the summer months and I'm off and like I was working on stuff, we were purposely put, purposefully put on our, our local news because we like to watch what's trending, right? That's, that's all Jeremy, the weather and what's trending and, but they also catch, catch [00:48:00] national news.

So when I type that. Literally tangerine toddler. Yes. And his boyfriend were fighting. Yes. Now they've made up.

Jen: The implosion is magnificent. That's

Eunice: hilarious. But now have you seen like as of like yesterday, this is gonna be post week, weeks later, the boyfriend. I'm sorry. I'm just saying. I don't, are they reconciling?

Well, I may have gone too far, bitch. It's the ketamine fucking sit down. Yeah. But anyway, I, I could go all day. Like, but anyway so like you had that in one breath, that these two are fighting. And leave it to the Tangerine toddler to actually have some decorum. But there's reasons why, I think he told people's a hundred percent

DeJah: reasons why he didn't do anything.

Because he knew that. Yeah. And told his

Eunice: people, of course he did. Don't say anything because that man had stuff on him. Let's just be honest. Boyfriends, girlfriends, whatever you wanna say.

Jen: Yep. All the

Eunice: green. So in one breath we had these two fighting like, and some people made a joke about mom, dad fighting or whatever.

And then in the same breath, we had a man with no [00:49:00] medical experience, fire, 16 or 17 people from the C, d. C. And I'm like, sense? Are you talking

DeJah: about the guy, a worm make that ate his brain? That

Eunice: guy. I, I am a pers, I'm a conspiracy theorist sometimes in my heart. So like, I, I am, and, and one thing I wanna get off my soapbox about is like, please quit using the word woke when it comes to L-G-Q-B-T-A.

They don't know

DeJah: what it means.

Eunice: L-G-B-T-Q-I-A. You mean? I probably mixed up the letters and I do not mean any offense. All right. There are there. But like, please quit using that for that term because that comes from. When I listened to rap and hip hop. Mm-hmm. And that was a form of them educating people about what had been done to an entire nation of people.

DeJah: Well, just like that little video I had just sent over on the Sibling Soray,

Eunice: right?

DeJah: Yes. Right. Yeah. So please

Eunice: quit using Woke for that because Woke was about like, because. Any form of education or history was only taught from one view, right? As I've learned from professors called [00:50:00] Eurocentric, and that's how I'll say it.

Mm-hmm. So that's where Woke originally started. Please stop using it for other things. And that's because you're using it for hate and that's not what its purpose was. Mm-hmm.

DeJah: Mm-hmm.

Eunice: There is no hate in woke. It's just because it kind of morphed into, let's use it for conspiracy theory, like, and that's okay with me because it's all about awakening.

It's all about literally wake up, right? Mm-hmm.

DeJah: So

Eunice: please stop using it. For hate and division. Yep. That's not its purpose. Well, if you

DeJah: could get that message across to Fox News, that'd be great. Thanks Holmes.

Eunice: Joe, can you can you make that happen? Can you send this to Fox or It helps their, it's in the mail agenda, so,

DeJah: Show one Holmes show.

Those are all different topics.

Right. But when asked him about, when we asked him about that and for to hear him say, I don't wanna come on because I want Eunice. He said, I'm a talker. And I don't want to dim Eunice's light. I want her to have all of the space to be who she is and talk [00:52:00] about all of her things, and it just. It made my heart soar because it, to see his love for you, like I feel it in a different way, obviously.

Right, right. But like it is just, it's, it's so admirable and for him to be so authentically in love with you and to not to be shy away from that. Yeah. And his support of you and everything is amazing. And then. You know, just for you to show up and take the space for yourself as well. Oh, thank you guys.

But sometimes people couch at a selfishness or, oh, I can't do that. I'm, you know, for my family. Like, I gotta be there for them or whatever.
