Speaker 1:

Ho, ho, ho. Who would know?

Speaker 2:

We are here and we have a full house today, so Dylan scoot over. Yes, I'm in here. We got Daniel here. We got Dylan here. Steven, here, we're all here. Yeah, so it's time for another episode of who's Driving. Welcome to who's Driving. I'm Wesley Turner.

Speaker 1:

And I'm Steven Merck. We're two best friends and entrepreneurs.

Speaker 2:

Who's Driving is an entertaining look into the behind the scenes of our lives, friendship and business.

Speaker 1:

These are the stories we share and topics we discuss, as two best friends would on a long road trip.

Speaker 2:

Along the way, we'll check in with friends and offer a wide range of informative topics centered around running small businesses, social media and all things home and garden.

Speaker 1:

Buckle up and enjoy the ride. You never know who's driving or where we're headed.

Speaker 2:

All we know is it's always a fun ride and on this week's episode we're gonna share some of our favorite Christmas memories. We have everyone here and this is our last podcast episode of the year Of the year. I know, I can't believe. I still can't remember exactly when we started it, but maybe April or something.

Speaker 4:

I think it was April.

Speaker 2:

This is like episode 38, I do believe, so that means like 38 weeks.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm proud of us.

Speaker 2:

I know we're gonna pick back up in mid January, so keep that in mind.

Speaker 3:

Did Stephen record a holiday album to play?

Speaker 1:

I did, we're gonna play that while we're on. I'll be home.

Speaker 2:

Please stop. So I will repost some of the previous episodes to some of the highlights, but we'll be back, don't worry. We'll be back with all new content in the middle of.

Speaker 1:

January and lots of, I'm sure, craziness that we had over the Christmas holiday and market and Florida and no Casino Beach.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so here we are. We have my current husband, daniel Current.

Speaker 1:

In here. Who was the former?

Speaker 3:

And then we have I don't know about this person.

Speaker 2:

We have Stephen's a man, dylan, in here with us as well. No, I always say I'm gonna start referring. There's someone I see on TikTok and he always says my current husband. He says he likes to do that because it keeps him on his toes Like he may not be the last, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Well, I'm ready to go at any time you are. I have a backpack to wait in.

Speaker 2:

You lies, lies, lies. Oh my goodness, before we get into some of our favorite Christmas memories, this is the first time all four of us have been on the podcast. That is true, we've had Dylan on once before. Daniel's been on a few times. That's cause you only have three microphones.

Speaker 3:

Dylan and I are in the backseat, squeezed next to each other.

Speaker 1:

Sharing the microphone. I know Well, you know, we're not about wasting money.

Speaker 4:

Right, that's a good thing. Daniel lost all that weight. We wouldn't fit.

Speaker 3:

Seriously.

Speaker 2:

I know we need to do a little year in review, cause you did drop some pounds this year.

Speaker 3:

I've been eating some cookies. They're coming back.

Speaker 2:

You know, during the holiday season, it always happens a little bit the way it is. Since all four of us are here, I thought we would do a little game of who's the most likely, oh God, so I have some good questions. Okay, and we can do it as couples or as the groups, whatever inspires us.

Speaker 3:

Let's do it individually, as the group, okay.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so as the group, who is the most likely not to text you back? Daniel, daniel, what, yeah?

Speaker 4:

Dylan, do you text people back? No, well, I text Stephen back, but in general, I just don't lie.

Speaker 1:

He's bad too, both of them. Well, here's the problem.

Speaker 3:

Dylan and I are very similar. We're both Aquarius and we both live up to that stereotype.

Speaker 2:

And Stephen and I are both Aries and we have the same.

Speaker 1:

That's why we're perfect.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it is really funny, although there's differences, like we're basically the same. Couples Like Stephen and I are pretty similar, and then Daniel and Dylan are very similar.

Speaker 1:

So a lot of things. They get that award. They get that award, yeah, yeah, cause I'll text you back. Well, he knows he better text me back, but I'll leave text messages just unread, for sometimes infinity. Even for me. I have to call Did you get my text? Yeah, I got it, yeah.

Speaker 4:

I have like 46 unread right now.

Speaker 1:

Oh my gosh, but I read them, I just I have a lot of unread, but it's a lot of work.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, don't you go back and you have to like highlight it again so that you don't forget about it.

Speaker 1:

I have 889 unread Text messages. No, but I intentionally have not read them, but it's stuff like but then why don't you get rid of them?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just forget. That would drive me crazy.

Speaker 1:

I can't stand that I know what's important.

Speaker 2:

Okay, who is the most likely to be the shy one of the group? I?

Speaker 4:

think that's me.

Speaker 2:

I think I'm you don't of the group. Like if we're out in a public, just meeting In a one on one setting.

Speaker 3:

Probably us, yeah, probably. He would rather not be there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's the most introverted.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, which is very comical because no one believes that Because, like, daniel will talk to anyone, like if you know, if someone says how's your day going? Daniel's often running Me too. Yeah, not me. I'm like good, that's about it. Then I'm like then I get very uncomfortable internally. No, I'm chatty, kathy. Yeah, I feel like all of y'all are, except for me. Who is the most likely to get mad? The easiest, stephen. Yeah, I think Stephen.

Speaker 3:

Why is that? I feel like he's the worst.

Speaker 2:

It's true, I have the worst temper, the shortest temper, not. I feel like you do a good job of controlling.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm not saying you get, you have to push it to get there.

Speaker 3:

But once it ignites, I feel like I'd come in second.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, you have a temper too, me and you probably have. And then what? But you have a temper, wesley.

Speaker 2:

I do, but it usually takes a lot to get me there.

Speaker 1:

Or if you push my button, it takes a lot for me to get there too, but I guess if you say the right thing, dylan does not have a temper, he's just so even keel.

Speaker 4:

So patient, yeah, just don't care.

Speaker 3:

You have to be to be with Stephen.

Speaker 2:

Exactly. I mean, it would not work if he was not patient. It's kind of true who is most likely to be the stubborn one?

Speaker 3:

I think Wes is stubborn.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think, yeah, I think it would be Wes Y'all, both are stubborn.

Speaker 2:

We are both stubborn, but I might be a little more than Stephen.

Speaker 1:

You may be a little more stubborn than I am. It's a close tie, though it is very close, but I'm not near as bad as I used to be.

Speaker 3:

Wes is it filters down to like you need to go to the doctor, you need to do stuff like that, and he's like I'm not doing it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's what he'll. Yeah, I'm not doing it. That's what he'll tell me. I'm like you need to do this. I'm worried about this. I think you should do. Yeah, I'm not doing it, I think though.

Speaker 2:

Well, I don't know, it's fine yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm stubborn. And some of that is really weird because, like, especially with the whole doctor and medical thing, considering your dad is an internist like it's the easy thing, Like when I went if I were you, when I go home, I would get all my blood work done. I would get any prescriptions that I need written.

Speaker 2:

But I don't need anything. That's the thing. You don't know because you don't go, but I would go if it was something, if something was going on. It's too late, no, but I know my body and I'm like it's fine.

Speaker 4:

Oh yeah, Honey, I thought I'd do my body and I about died on Starbucks floor. Oh yeah, we had talked about that, no we haven't, it was story time.

Speaker 1:

Story time, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So Dylan almost died in Starbucks.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, how old were you? That was what three, four years ago.

Speaker 2:

So you'd have been like 26, 24.

Speaker 4:

24., 24, 25.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 4:

We had been to Vegas in that January and when we got back I felt bad for several months and it just continued to get worse. I thought, OK, I'm not drinking enough water, I'm not getting enough protein. So there were signs. There were OK, but all of the signs could be pointed to anxiety and being stressed, yeah. So I and I worked super early, you know you were a little stressed to. Yes, because you were working at Starbucks.

Speaker 4:

Yes, yeah, and I just thought it was anxiety. You know my chest would get tight. Thought it was anxiety. That was the explanation.

Speaker 1:

And he was drinking a lot of caffeine.

Speaker 3:

I can oh a lot of who wouldn't work in at Starbucks.

Speaker 4:

Right, I agree. That's the only way you got through those shifts.

Speaker 3:

Mm hmm.

Speaker 4:

But one day I was making a green tea and the black came in and I woke up on the floor with the barista holding my legs.

Speaker 2:

Oh, my God, Dylan, wake up. Oh my God.

Speaker 4:

One was sitting back in the corner on the phone like crying because I just hit the floor.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 4:

Long story short. My lower chamber doesn't pump correctly.

Speaker 1:

Mm, hmm, and he called me from the hospital.

Speaker 3:

And let's say you had a heart condition and didn't know about it.

Speaker 1:

It's called Brugata syndrome and it's basically a lot of the athletes you see on TV playing basketball or whatever that just dropped dead on the court, mm, hmm, that a lot of that's Brugata, and so now you have a pacemaker.

Speaker 2:

Is it a pacemaker? It's a pacemaker and a defibrillator.

Speaker 1:

And I felt bad. So listen to this. So he I don't know if I've even told you all this he calls me. So I passed out at work and the EMS said I needed.

Speaker 3:

You said shut up, oh, we get up off the floor. It's terrible.

Speaker 1:

Basically, I was working, wes and I were working.

Speaker 4:

He's like just get an Uber home when they let you out.

Speaker 2:

I did.

Speaker 1:

But I thought I said he said I had a quad espresso. That's a lot, Right. So I said you have overdosed on caffeine. It was too much for your body. You passed out.

Speaker 4:

That's this is what it is Right.

Speaker 1:

So you're you're going to be fine, and it was during it was when COVID first happened, so I couldn't go and have anybody with no one could be there. So I said he was like I'm feel fine, I'm ready to go home. I'm like, well, when you leave, because his car was at Starbucks, I said, get it, uber, get the car, because I don't want the car to stay there overnight and just come home because I was working. And he's like, yeah, that's what I'll do. Then he called me and he's like I'm not leaving.

Speaker 4:

Well, it's funny because, like they kept telling me, ok, you'll be able to go in a little bit, when we figured out, but they couldn't figure out why my heart, my rhythm, was so irregular, like I had no P wave, my QRST interval was so wide. It was just odd, yeah. And they kept saying, oh, you'll be able to leave in an hour or two, we'll get, we'll get everything ready. Well, they never came back. So I was just like I'm leaving, like I just need a nap, I'll be fine.

Speaker 4:

And then these two cardiologists came in and they were like Mr Simpson, we can tell your heart has been in this irregular rhythm for so long. Your body is literally shutting down at this point. You're an adult, you can leave if you want to. We cannot make you stay, but if you leave, there is a good chance you won't wake up tomorrow. That's crazy. And I looked at them and I made a joke of it. I was like, well, I guess the responsible thing to do is stay right and they will build me up to a little room. And I was like I've been here all day. I'm hungry, can I get some food? And they brought me all this like vending machine stuff, uh-huh.

Speaker 4:

And then three days later I got out.

Speaker 2:

And did you have to stay the whole time by yourself Like your mom? No one could be.

Speaker 4:

Nobody could come. Even when they moved me to the room. Nobody could come and his parents were going down to the beach.

Speaker 1:

His mom was going down to their beach house to pick up his dad and his sister, and so I called her and I was like I think you need to come, I think you need to hurry back home. Yeah, so he came home. The only way he got to come home was with wearing a live vest. Yeah, with a defibrillator built in.

Speaker 4:

And they didn't want to. My insurance didn't say it. They said I didn't need the pacemaker. They're like oh, he can just wear that vest, it'll be fine, just log around an eight pound battery, the rest of his life.

Speaker 1:

The vest on.

Speaker 2:

The insurance.

Speaker 1:

That's how bad insurance is now.

Speaker 2:

But yeah, how do you do that? Because you can't sleep in the vest. Yeah, oh, yeah you do.

Speaker 4:

The battery just sits on the table, the wires connected.

Speaker 2:

Like that. I mean, that's not sufficient.

Speaker 4:

It's like a sports bra.

Speaker 1:

They wanted him to wear that for the rest of his life. What?

Speaker 4:

do you have to do? Fight for it? Uh-huh, the doctor wrote a note or a letter to the company and was like he's a young man, Was an active lifestyle. This will be detrimental to not only his physical health but his mental health If he can't, if he has to log that around the rest of his life.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 4:

And they came back and approved it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah so he's got his built in little lifesaver in his chest.

Speaker 2:

That is crazy.

Speaker 1:

He'll. He'll eventually dive something, but he won't dive a heart attack. Well, that's crazy. Kind of nice, uh-huh, now that it's over.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, all right. So who is the most likely to be the messier one? You know, daniel's the messier one.

Speaker 4:

What it's one of you, but I think.

Speaker 2:

Daniel. Daniel's the messier one. Although he is the, he's a better, cleaner than I am like cleaning up things, but he definitely is the messier one. Like I don't know.

Speaker 3:

I think we're equal. If I just want to point the finger, if I go out there, if I go out there, and look in either of your cars.

Speaker 1:

Yours is worse.

Speaker 2:

That is true.

Speaker 3:

Right now, especially Because.

Speaker 2:

Daniel just cleaned his up. But if you clean up the kitchen and Daniel comes in just to make a simple lunch, it is a disaster from head to head. Now he'll clean it up later, maybe tomorrow, but there are crumbs all over the counter. If he's, it's.

Speaker 3:

I think, yeah, that's just the kitchen and that's that's true. I clean it up like once every 24 hours. I'm not like everything I touch goes in the dishwasher person. It all goes in the sink until.

Speaker 4:

I'm ready to take care of it.

Speaker 3:

But Wes definitely just follows that. He follows my lead on that. And then Wes leaves all his clothes next to the side of the bed, and I don't do that.

Speaker 2:

Mm, hmm, that's true. You leave them stomped in the bathroom floor.

Speaker 3:

Can you deny that? That's true? No, ok.

Speaker 1:

Dylan is super neat and tidy and as I'm, as I'm.

Speaker 4:

Yeah Well, I used to be like Daniel I'd just pile it up and then take it later. It would be later but then I met Stephen and he was like you have to follow.

Speaker 1:

You don't want to stay here? Yeah, but don't you like it now, like that's the way we live? Yeah, it's much easier.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I have a question Do y'all unpack your suitcase when you're on vacation?

Speaker 2:

Like at your destination. No, well, never done that.

Speaker 4:

We don't either. No, and the second I get home, honey, it gets packed right into the closet dirty clothes, and then I'm free to do whatever. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm not one of those that. No, it's funny because my family they're unpackers. When you get to your destination. I'm not unpacking I wish I were like that, because it would be easier to go through your clothes and stuff and it doesn't go with my personality. But that's not. I'm not home, I'm not staying there.

Speaker 4:

Like.

Speaker 1:

I just don't know.

Speaker 4:

I don't think if we were staying somewhere longer than like a week and a half, two weeks, maybe three weeks, we might would, but we're not there long enough and then that's just too much energy to put it all back.

Speaker 2:

I know Like when we go to the Florida house and stay like 10 days, two weeks, we still don't unpack. I mean we live out of the suitcase I hang up a few shirts.

Speaker 3:

We should try to do that and just see if we like it. I bet if you did a poll, most people unpack.

Speaker 4:

Oh, let us know on our, but I think they do.

Speaker 1:

It's funny. It's funny too, because we own that house and we don't unpack and we own the condos at Hilton Head and we don't unpack Like those are our homes. Right, but we still don't unpack.

Speaker 2:

Let us know on our hotline, our numbers eight, six, four, nine, eight, two, five, zero two nine. It's also in the show notes, but let us know, text us. Do you unpack when you are staying at a hotel or an Airbnb, when you're on vacation? Do you unpack or do you just live out of your suitcase? I say most people do, you think they do, but none of us do. My family does, my family does and I don't think I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I bet my step, yeah, your family does too.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, honey, they just take over there, like this is ours for the week, I know.

Speaker 2:

Who is the most likely to spend the most money? You are, Daniel. You to spend the most money. It depends. Why not no?

Speaker 3:

we're talking most money, okay, frivolously on plants, is me.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but on most money we're talking about electronic.

Speaker 1:

Any kind of electronic Wesley.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but we're saying spend the most money, that's you, you're just walking through, I feel personally attacked, right now.

Speaker 1:

You're just walking through the category?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it does. No, we're talking overall. Who has got a new Range Rover, new watches, new shoes?

Speaker 3:

That's just three things. Cars clothes.

Speaker 4:

Thank you, jewelry.

Speaker 3:

So that's Steven. Sure, he wins those, but I feel like Steven is very frugal.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, frugal, yeah, when it comes to groceries, eating dinner meal, sort of thing, but spend the most money is you, I guess I mean but you also have it to spend, so sounds naughty. It's not, it's a thing.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I'm the oldest. Okay, I feel attacked. Oh, what's the next?

Speaker 2:

But Dylan is a money spender too. He'll sneak in some big purchases.

Speaker 1:

Dylan. Oh, let me tell you you have to watch him. He's like Daniel, he's an under the radar spender.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, daniel's an under the radar spender too, and we had one little situation.

Speaker 1:

I was like eh eh, like I. One day he pulled out something and he had bought a Cartier bracelet and did not find the no. He works and he makes his money, but he hid it for a week. I had it like a month, yeah, before he, because he thought he was trying to pull out the Well first of all it bothered me because he did that, because he thought I would get mad at him and that made me feel really bad yeah.

Speaker 3:

I would have never noticed that you were wearing that. But Steven, of all people, the second you wear it, that's going to be like Well, he didn't wear it.

Speaker 1:

Where did you get it from? He left it in the hidden in the box in the closet.

Speaker 4:

So I take it out and wear it like he would leave first.

Speaker 1:

And then I put it on Really yeah. So I said wait.

Speaker 2:

OK, ok, there's something going on there in the dynamic we need to discuss.

Speaker 1:

That's why we had to have a meeting about it and I said this makes me feel bad, because you work and you deserve to spend.

Speaker 2:

You should be able to do what you want.

Speaker 1:

Yes, yeah, as should I, but since we are together, we need some respectful ground rules as a couple. So we decided if we're going to spend $1,000 or more that's the threshold then we at least run it by the other person.

Speaker 3:

OK.

Speaker 1:

I want to do this. Yeah, we don't have that rule I need a higher limit. Yeah, I did that yesterday, I know, but it's worked well. Yeah, it's worked well and I think that's a respectful boundary, at least to say OK, well, if it's for the business, then that doesn't count, that doesn't count Right. Business is business and we're raised by that business.

Speaker 2:

Well, see, because we really aren't, Daniel, neither one of us are really big spenders, except for business. Like Daniel will be like oh, I want these plants, or see, but that's business, it's business.

Speaker 4:

It's two birds, and that's your business Spend your money.

Speaker 2:

However, just keep your business going. So nothing like that but household stuff. Neither one of us really.

Speaker 1:

You're just a crazy spender when it comes to the only thing I've ever considered you like wasteful or spending as electronic.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but we really don't have anything. But it will. You've got it all. Hell, you bought it all. But what other people don't have we?

Speaker 1:

have the same thing, but you had to have it all first.

Speaker 3:

Because of Instagram. Yeah, he had to have drones Anything. He had to have three drones. Yeah, who can say that?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and we bought Daniel and I bought you one and you crashed it I crashed it.

Speaker 2:

Oh, did you crash it?

Speaker 1:

Yeah it was my fault Well that makes me feel better actually because you got one stuck in a tree, didn't you that?

Speaker 2:

was him oh that was it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but I mean, you were always that person that had. When the new iPhone came out, you had to have it. Apple Watch, you wanted any right. But those are business expenses too. But yeah, it's just funny because anything electronic technology you want it.

Speaker 3:

I tried to talk them out of the Apple Watch.

Speaker 2:

I think that's the dumbest gadget, but I've only had one, apple Watch, and I actually enjoy it, but then I'm like I had two.

Speaker 3:

No, I've only had one.

Speaker 2:

I just wore the one for a while and then I stopped, and then I wore it again, and now I'm kind of see.

Speaker 1:

I don't understand the Apple watch, and I know people Listen. I have close people around me Cannot live without their Apple watch.

Speaker 2:

I'm not like that with it because it's not that useful, but I did like it, like when I was going to the gym regularly to keep up with my workouts or just different things like that. But that's all I really use it for.

Speaker 3:

So phone does everything.

Speaker 2:

But that watch is like six years old. It's not like I get a new one.

Speaker 1:

I didn't even bring up the damn watch.

Speaker 2:

I know I'm just speaking of watches you get a new watch like every two years.

Speaker 1:

That's not true. How many watches I get one about every maybe five or six. How?

Speaker 2:

many watches you have His make money. How many do you have? Because it doesn't average out to every five or six. You got two like one time when we were in Vegas the same week.

Speaker 4:

Well, they are investments.

Speaker 3:

The watches my client they hold their value.

Speaker 1:

This watch I have on. In all fairness, I could sell this today and make $5,000 on it today.

Speaker 4:

Is that not true?

Speaker 2:

You can my electronics make me $5,000 with our businesses.

Speaker 4:

But I know, but that's different.

Speaker 1:

Is it Okay? I'm never going to sell the watches.

Speaker 2:

Exactly.

Speaker 1:

Unless I'm really hungry. It's just something, that's just something I enjoy, but I do limit, limit that.

Speaker 2:

Who is the bigger baby when sick? Daniel, daniel and or Stephen?

Speaker 4:

Yeah, stephen, too.

Speaker 2:

Well, okay, daniel is the bigger baby, like wine, or it can just be a cold.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm a half a Conri act.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's different. There is a difference. So Daniel's like huh, it's a cold, I can't breathe. That you don't understand. I'm dying. It's how he is. Just with the cold His nose gets stopped up. I'm not a baby like that. I just think, stephen, if he gets sick it goes from if he's got a cold. He doesn't have the cold he has some some rare disease. That's only been in one person that he. Googled and he's got it.

Speaker 1:

Yes, I am so guilty of that. That is like my worst trait. If I could change one thing about myself, it would be to let go that the fact that I think I'm a doctor.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because we're all renowned and you Google it, and you Google it 50 different ways, and then you have 50 different things.

Speaker 1:

And I have every, I have every symptom of everything. Uh-huh, it is.

Speaker 2:

That is so true, so one time he was like when you pee? We were at the warehouse. When you're pee, let me come look at it. I got to see how many bubbles you have in your pee because I think my kidneys are shutting down. I read that you get more bubbles in your pee. It is true. And I was like okay, Stephen, when you're standing up as a guy and you pee, there's bubbles in your pee. Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I read about this and I think it is true, it mean I'm, that I am that person and, like after my mom died. My mom died with lung cancer January 10th will be five years ago, and after that happened, oh my Lord, you always have Full-fledged hypochondriac. So right after then, I was working at the garden store and I picked up a huge planter that probably weighed like a hundred pounds and carried it like this oh yeah, and you tore something in your chest and I tore it in my chest so I had it.

Speaker 1:

But I Googled and then I found this these very rare cases of people that have had cancer of the sternum and he had it. So I decided I had cancer of the sternum. But it was very real to me and I guess my mother had just died and thankfully my physician is a the sweetest, most patient friend of mine ever and she didn't throw me out because I mean, I was like convinced and I was like I've got to have a CAT scan, I've got to have MRI, I want it all. And she's like Stephen, you've got to calm down, yeah, you're, you're going, you're like this because you're your mom just dying, this is, but you don't like that all the time.

Speaker 1:

She said I'm not putting that much radiation in your body. She said, but I will agree to an x-ray because I was like I got to do something, I got to have something, yeah. So she did an x-ray and it was. I was at the garden store and she called me and I was like, oh god.

Speaker 2:

Here's the. Here's the diagnosis. Here's the news.

Speaker 1:

And I answered the phone and she's just laughing her ass off and I'm like, why? Why aren't you laughing? She's like just got your report back and I was like what is it? What is wrong? And she's like, and she starts laughing again and she said you have arthritis of the sternum. I said the hell out from here. She's like, but truthfully, anybody your age probably has arthritis on their sternum. Most people just don't get x-rays of their sternum.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and you had irritated it by picking up the container, which most people would translate, you know, relate and go oh, I pulled something, but not you, Not me. Who is the most likely to eat more? That's Daniel or probably or Dylan. No, no, I'm a sauce person, daniel eats 15 times a day.

Speaker 3:

I eat stuff just to get sauce.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

To put sauce on it.

Speaker 1:

I love sauces. I didn't think there was a person that loves sauce more than me until I met Dylan.

Speaker 2:

I mean Daniel, he, he's going to sauce it up In a bottle, he'll empty.

Speaker 1:

He'll empty your damn bottle, uh-huh.

Speaker 3:

Honey mustard Barbecue. He's going to lick the container it was in, he ain't leaving.

Speaker 1:

Nothing, Nothing behind. You've got to be. There's got to be some French in your genealogy. Nope.

Speaker 3:

Bonesher.

Speaker 2:

Because you love some sauces. What he does, he loves to eat, though, like you and I. This is the funny thing talking about being frugal, we are not foodies. We're the opposite of foodies.

Speaker 3:

No, when we went to Hawaii, I was. Anytime we go on vacation as a group, I'm like, all right, we got to find a nice restaurant, we got to do this. So I'm always having to make reservations.

Speaker 1:

And then he orders the most basic thing on the menu. No, no, no.

Speaker 3:

No, but y'all will go. You would be in Hawaii and go to McDonald's, yeah, or a dollar pizza slice place, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, or New York City is the same way Like.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, when Steven and I we've gone to New York by ourselves, like for business trips or whatever, just like a three day trip, we would just eat three dollar pizza.

Speaker 3:

Those little, the little food court convenience stores that have like a hot bar in them. That's all we need. You eat there every day, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Because we would use our points to go there. We would go on a whole New York trip for like $75.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and we and it's a rule. Like we, when we're in New York, we do not use the subway, we do not use cabs.

Speaker 2:

We walk everywhere, whether it's 15 miles, yeah.

Speaker 1:

No, ubers, nothing. So on a Friday to Monday trip, every trip, and we used to go four times a year.

Speaker 4:

So it, got it was a lot.

Speaker 1:

We walk between 31 and 33 miles per weekend. Yeah, even it was fun. It was fun.

Speaker 2:

And we need to go back. It's time, I think it's time.

Speaker 1:

It is time I'm missing it, mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

Who is the most likely to be overly dramatic? Who's the dramatic one? It's definitely not me. It's one of those two, Dylan or Daniel.

Speaker 1:

It's kind of a tie.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they're both a little on the Are you dramatic?

Speaker 3:

Are you the drama he?

Speaker 1:

can be, he can be.

Speaker 2:

But neither one of them are out of control.

Speaker 1:

No, no, not like. Oh, I can't not annoying, no.

Speaker 2:

But if something's going on or whatever it is I think I just drink so much caffeine during the day with farming.

Speaker 1:

I feel like Daniel's less dramatic than he used to be?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he's matured in that department and I've knocked it out of him a little bit and Dylan's is reducing.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, it's that neither one of them are irritating.

Speaker 2:

No, I'm not dramatic at all. I try to be opposite of dramatic, because my family growing up is very dramatic and I'm just like the house could be burning down. I'd be like the house is burning down.

Speaker 3:

Well and I try to like-. I think in my family I'm the more dramatic person because everyone else is pretty chill.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I feel like I might would be more dramatic, but 30 years in McDonald's like nothing alarms me to the point. Oh, restaurants burning down, okay, well, you know.

Speaker 2:

Who is the most likely to get arrested? Because well, well Not us.

Speaker 1:

Well, out of the four, I can tell you the two that have never visited a jailhouse oh yeah, Me and Wesley. Is that true?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I haven't been arrested yet. I've never have y'all been arrested, yeah.

Speaker 4:

I plead the fifth.

Speaker 2:

Story time.

Speaker 3:

Well, I didn't kill anybody, that's good. I just got in trouble as a teenager.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

That was Dylan.

Speaker 3:

I don't have a record.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's good. Yeah, nothing crazy. What one sound Do you have a? Record Like noise violation in college, not anymore, yeah.

Speaker 3:

We used to Me and my roommates would party in college and so the cops would always come, because the neighbors would call. And I took the heat one time and I answered the door when the cops came and they're like you're coming with us and I was I'd actually been working that night and I was like not even partying with them, but I went to jail sober.

Speaker 1:

You were probably a smart ass and been like okay.

Speaker 3:

I probably was a smart ass yeah. Have you seen there's a TikTok where this girl answers the door and she it's the cops and she says hey, ladies, that's funny and I'm like that's something I would have totally done.

Speaker 2:

That is funny. That is funny.

Speaker 4:

I should have said that.

Speaker 1:

If I ever went to jail oh my gosh.

Speaker 2:

I will-.

Speaker 1:

I'm not cut out for jail first of all Me either. If I did go to jail, it would honestly be for knocking the hell out of somebody. It would be disorderly conduct assault.

Speaker 2:

Oh no, like I get that I might have a heart attack.

Speaker 4:

Literally.

Speaker 2:

Like, if I get pulled over just for a speeding ticket, I am just like Well I feel like I have just murdered someone or something and they're after me.

Speaker 1:

You know, my alcohol is way different. My intake is way different than it used to be and I've never been at the point of being alcoholic Right, but I was definitely drinking way too much and I got pulled for a DUI one.

Speaker 2:

I know We've never told this story. This was one we needed to tell. This is it. That was the worst and keep in mind, during the holiday season, don't be drinking and driving. Don't do it.

Speaker 1:

It's not worse than Don't do it. I was I promise you. I promise you, I was not slobbery drunk or anything, but you had been drinking. I had been drinking, but in all fairness, then my company car was a 4Runner, so it drives very rough. What rough Truck. It's on a truck chassis Right. Well, my personal car. I had just bought a new Mercedes that was very tight and it was literally brand new.

Speaker 2:

So I mean not making excuses, but so I had had or you're not the best driver either, I mean you're not the most steady.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm not a steady driver.

Speaker 2:

I mean, you are now with new cars because they keep you aligned, but you put you in an old car. You're like bouncing from line to line.

Speaker 1:

Well, and I hugged the right side. I should not have been driving.

Speaker 1:

So, I do not need a lecture on drinking and driving, because since that night and that's been probably like 12 years ago I have a two-drink limit and I don't drive anymore. But I made a bad choice and I got pulled over at 2.30 in the morning and it was the most horrible feeling. And then my neighbor was a DUI attorney and just in conversation I knew what not to do. So I knew not to do field sobriety and I knew just to say take me to jail, yeah, and talk very little. So I didn't talk and I just said take me to jail, yeah. And because I didn't, I knew I would have to get out of it. So I mean, god was truly watching over me. This time.

Speaker 1:

And I truly believe that because in the moment where he was getting ready to arrest me, there was a car across 85 that had broken down across the interstate. And a car coming southbound crashed into that car.

Speaker 2:

The car that had broken down? Yes, yeah.

Speaker 3:

And you're pulled over on the side of the interstate, you're out of your car talking to the cop. Getting ready to go to jail and this crazy wreck happens like 200 feet right down the street yeah.

Speaker 1:

Just the most bizarre thing that has ever happened. Yeah, and I'm like just looking like what the hell is going on and then I can hear someone across the way cause they see the blue lights Right and they're screaming officer, officer, we need your help.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And he looked at me and he looked at them and they were yelling and obviously someone went. They needed his help, right. And he looked at me and he said can you get your ass home safely? And I said yes, sir, I can. Yeah, and you betcha. And he let me go. Isn't that crazy.

Speaker 1:

A friend of mine was in the car with me and I blamed it all on him. It's like he's drunk, I'm having a drive and we got in the car and he was like you know, you have a horseshoe up your ass. So the next that was a Friday night. The next night was my 20 year high school reunion and I went to the reunion but I would not have a drink. I was so shaken by that, yeah, like it truly did something to me, but honestly, it was a good thing. Yeah, that's crazy. So, with the holidays coming up, don't make the mistake. I made.

Speaker 2:

That could have been bad and that was pre-uber and that sort of thing. It was Now. You really don't have an excuse when you have to no, absolutely, but it was still a stupid.

Speaker 1:

Stupid. I mean, I was 38 years old, right, I knew better than to do that Stupid, I was my, my routine. That's true.

Speaker 2:

Who is the most likely to be the bitchy one Most, daniel he can't.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, daniel's the bitchy one. It's sarcastic.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he's got a sarcastic.

Speaker 1:

Call it what you want. Yeah, you have to work hard to get me bitchy, yeah.

Speaker 2:

He's the most likely. It's a genetic thing.

Speaker 1:

I don't even want to go there. Next next subject.

Speaker 3:

You're not getting a Christmas present from someone.

Speaker 2:

Just kidding, Okay. So let's talk about some of our favorite holiday memories. Stephen and I touched on this in the last episode. Just the two of us. So growing up, do y'all have any favorite?

Speaker 1:

This is going to be interesting because Dylan grew up with two other siblings, but his siblings are all. They're more than 11 years apart between them. Yeah, the big gap, the big gap. And then Daniel has two siblings, like you, that are closer together, so this is going to be interesting. But Daniel's the oldest of the, so it's a different dynamic. Yeah, you're the baby, he's the oldest.

Speaker 2:

Okay. So the question is did Santa because everyone Santa does, delivers things different Did Santa wrap your gifts or were they sitting out when you woke up?

Speaker 4:

Santa laid them out. That's not my.

Speaker 1:

Santa.

Speaker 3:

Like Santa's workshop. Yeah, santa had brought the presents and each person had their own stack like around the room, so when we came down the stairs we could just sit down. Everyone had a spot to sit. But the cool thing I remember is it wasn't all just from Santa. So my dad would always write like from and think of a different name for whatever. So he would do like some of the reindeer names and Santa and stuff like that, but every present was from someone different. But also, if it was something I was interested in and I can't think of an example right now I'd say like video games, like one would be from Super Mario or every year it was like different things that I was interested in.

Speaker 1:

That's cute, or if it's like a joke or something. I wouldn't have guessed that with your parents and not not being ugly because I love your mom and dad, but they're they're very serious minded people, yeah, and that's a cute thing to do. So good for them. That is cute yeah.

Speaker 4:

I'll never forget we were in this one home because we lived in separate, different houses growing up. But one had the upstairs and the balcony, or whatever you call that, and you looked over the living room, oh yeah, and it was late at night.

Speaker 4:

One night it was Christmas Eve and I heard rustling and I was like Santa's here, and I ran out and I like, and my mom and dad always told me, if you come out to peak, santa will not ever come back. Yeah, so you can't look Right? Well, I heard the rustling and so I crawled on the floor over to where the edges? And I peeked over and I saw mom and dad taking stuff out of a trash bag and put it on the couch and I was like Christmas is over Like just ruined my life.

Speaker 3:

I played it off the next morning like I didn't know.

Speaker 4:

Oh, thank you so much.

Speaker 1:

I still believe in Santa, mm. Hmm, it was a big deal Like for my mom. Santa was a big deal like I've. I mean, never stop believing. I mean it's just such a magical thing for everybody.

Speaker 2:

What was your favorite? Do you have like a favorite something you got that you remember Like as a little kid, like the one that set off Christmas? Do you have a thing? Or it could be a memory. Like I was saying in the previous episode, I remember more of like because my mom was like you know, let's do experiences, but like baking stuff. So I remember Christmas being magical by like decorating gingerbread houses or going and getting the tree, or. But then I do remember getting a go cart and a trampoline.

Speaker 4:

I don't remember specifics. I do remember one year I got these jumping stilts that you could put on and you could jump.

Speaker 1:

I mean, oh, you told me about those. Yeah, those are so fun, you love that. And they made me like six foot on level with everyone.

Speaker 4:

But we used to play this game and thinking back on it now it wasn't really a game, I guess, but we would just drive around and look at Christmas lights. Oh yeah, and we I guess my parents would always let me win, but we would just drive around and anytime you'd see lights you say, got some, got some.

Speaker 4:

And as a kid, I mean, I've always been pretty competitive but, I used to want to beat everyone in that car Got them, got them, got them. But I used to. I loved looking at all the homes, too, and the way people decorated them.

Speaker 3:

Right, and it was lit up, that was magical. Yeah, you would love this. So one of my favorite memories is that my mom used and mom and dad used to drive us and we'd all get in the car and we would go to this little town outside of Charlotte, north Carolina, called McAddenville. Yes, and Duke.

Speaker 2:

Energy.

Speaker 3:

I've never been Duke Energy pays for the whole town to. Every building has Christmas lights all over it, like it's extreme. And this is back before LED and everything.

Speaker 3:

People from states away, come to the and it backs up on the interstate like everyone goes through there and it takes forever because all the cars are going through this tiny little town that has like a tiny main street with the post office and everything, and you just go around this loop. The cops have everything blocked so that there's like a distinct path to go through the town. But it was pretty cool and you can get out and walk around and it's still a thing I haven't been in a long time.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, people from here go to McAddenville because it's like an hour.

Speaker 3:

We used to go a lot. Yeah Well, it's very.

Speaker 2:

See, I would have loved that. I would have too, but that was way too far.

Speaker 1:

We had it in Pickens County too.

Speaker 3:

We had this little speedway, we had the race track.

Speaker 1:

That's recent. Before in central it was this little street that like five families lived on and it was one loop. It's called Turkey Nog. You can't make that shit up. And we would drive around and look at Christmas lights and everybody go oh ain't them pretty? Oh, look at that. Yeah, look at that house, you know.

Speaker 2:

And back in the day when we were all growing up, they didn't have the LED lights or the ones you could really program Like if you wanted them to flash. You replace the one light bulb and they flash, but then nothing flashed in sync. Yeah, I would be like flash over here.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was just harder to do it back then.

Speaker 3:

I got to tell you, though, honestly, like our neighbors out here near the farm have started putting up the LED lights, or they'll get it installed where they never take them down, but you can't really see them during the day. Permanent Christmas lights and, to be honest, me and Wes talk about it all the time but I think that's just as tacky as whatever tacky is Like.

Speaker 2:

There is nothing that it feels very commercial is what we were saying. I would do those on our retail stores.

Speaker 1:

But not your home. Yeah, but on your home they feel kind of commercial. And the only thing we ever did. Growing up and when I lived in a house, the only thing I would do is I would pick one thing in the yard and do a Japanese maple and do a bunch of clear lights all over it, so you had a focal.

Speaker 3:

That's what I like. Also. I don't mean to offend people because I'm not the person to be judging, but I don't like inflatables. I don't like the projection lights that people put on their house.

Speaker 1:

Those are all for children. Those are when you have little kids. I have friends off of Augusta and they come in the store and they're like we want this, but we got to have the damn inflatable for the kids.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, okay, that makes sense, that makes sense, I get it.

Speaker 2:

That makes it magical for the kids it does and they hate it.

Speaker 1:

And the fact that I know they hate it but they're doing it for their kids makes it wonderful, makes it okay.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, because I would.

Speaker 1:

Can you imagine if we had children? I had to do inflatable in my yard? I would have to take medicine, that's saying it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, she wouldn't have it. Yeah, no, I would have to take medicine.

Speaker 1:

You do that for kids, you do a lot for kids, that's true.

Speaker 2:

That is true. Well, what was?

Speaker 1:

your Y'all never had your favorite Christmas memory, though. One Christmas that you got a makeup kit, like for Wesley, it was when he got his Easy Bake Oven.

Speaker 2:

I forgot about the Easy Bake Oven. We've talked about that.

Speaker 4:

I have a funny one in line with that. So when we were growing up, we were straight.

Speaker 2:

Exactly.

Speaker 4:

We couldn't act feminine or flamboyant. You had to tone it down a little bit. My grandparents thought it would be funny to get me and my cousin Barbie dolls. My grandparents used to always get us the little RC remote control cars or trucks, whatever, something manly or a BB gun for boys.

Speaker 4:

So one year we were open in presents and they would always give us a car with some money, and then we'd have one big item. Yeah Well, they had wrapped it up and it would have been just a Barbie doll and we loved it. Well, inside I'm like this is so fun. I had Barbies hidden at home that my aunt had gotten me that I'd play with on the down low. But my cousin was so just bent out of shape over he was like, oh my gosh, why don't you give us this? So I had to play along. So we took that Barbie outside and we threw it in the fire and we melted it.

Speaker 1:

We're all. Which granny got you that?

Speaker 4:

little nanny and little nanny and they all thought it was funny to watch us just cry over getting this. We were so offended, but inside I'm like I love it.

Speaker 2:

And then you had to burn up. We had to burn it, he ripped his legs off.

Speaker 4:

We acted so spoiled and just oh, it was awful.

Speaker 2:

But it was funny, that's hilarious Secretly inside.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I would have kept it.

Speaker 3:

I was easy because I grew up in the video game era. So it was always whatever the newest console was, and then the years in between it was the newest game. So, like a lot of my Christmas days would be opening video games and then spending the rest of the afternoon playing the video hours and I know that's just the way it was.

Speaker 1:

That was the time, but isn't that sad. I grew up, that's the 90s, but isn't that sad? Like, when you think about it, like if you knew, if you got. Compared to when I was a child, I feel like you got. There was more fun and interaction.

Speaker 3:

Maybe, but you know, like all of our friends, like we would all talk about it and go to each other's houses and play together, Because when I was doing it they started coming out with like the four controllers that you could four people could play a game at the same time. So I don't know, it's just a different version of what we grew up with.

Speaker 2:

I grew up in the country, so I never I never got really into the video games and that sort of thing.

Speaker 1:

I did one time Always like I had the. Atari one, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2:

That's when it was squares and circles that would bounce around the screen. That is not the same video games.

Speaker 1:

But I've never. Here's the funny story that's the last video games I've ever played.

Speaker 2:

That was like 1980.

Speaker 3:

Two, yeah, that was, I still downloaded them on my phone.

Speaker 2:

I'll play a little video games.

Speaker 3:

See, I don't.

Speaker 1:

I don't understand like what you understand, because I've never played the video games like that.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, I've never been into video games. I don't have a game on my phone, not even the word game that you play.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't have games on my phone either.

Speaker 4:

I just don't get into it.

Speaker 2:

And they don't keep my attention for whatever reason I'm like, because y'all are 80 D, I guess.

Speaker 1:

And I bought my nephews games like all those kinds and not my real nephews, I'm an only child, but my first cousin's children they're my nephews and I bought them all those Xbox and whatever those were. Yeah, and Bryce is now 17. And he's still into gaming a lot and but it's really high tech now, like if I go over to their house in the game room like he's playing games with his friends that are all across the country and yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like it's really high tech.

Speaker 2:

It is very high tech, all right. So, as we're wrapping up this holiday season, I think we're all here, so I want to start off by saying thank you to everyone who has listened to the podcast throughout this year. Things are sticking with us. I can't believe.

Speaker 3:

I know, I can't believe they're still here and everyone told me they liked it.

Speaker 1:

I know they do and they listen to us Like and when you pull up the map and I look at all the countries, I know Like who. Who are you in New Zealand that listens to us? Right Is there nothing better to do, they get it.

Speaker 3:

I mean, I appreciate it Inside of what me and Dylan have to go through every day.

Speaker 1:

It really touches me that people really listen to us. It does In every all the countries.

Speaker 4:

Mm, hmm.

Speaker 1:

And like we've brainstormed like how do they, who are they? How are they listening to us? And I was like, well, maybe it's military.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you know how did they find us yeah?

Speaker 3:

they have no clue what you're saying, they just like your accent.

Speaker 1:

Probably probably they're like those country queens.

Speaker 4:

Oh, what kind of life are they?

Speaker 2:

living right, and it's very touching because we talked about over the last couple of episodes that we this is the last episode for the season and everyone who's message like no, what am I going to listen to? Like I look forward to it every week. So we certainly, certainly appreciate that, and a huge thank you to everyone who shopped with us online or in our local stores. We couldn't be here doing all this without you, so we truly, truly appreciate you spending your hard earned money with us, and don't forget us in the new year.

Speaker 1:

And we've worked our asses off. You've worked our asses off this season and we can't thank you enough. It's true, seriously.

Speaker 2:

And thank you for supporting Daniel's flower farm at Petal Pickers.

Speaker 3:

I've definitely worked my ass off, that's true, you really.

Speaker 2:

And one thing it's not too late to order from Daniel a flower subscription. If you want to give that as a gift, tell him about that.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, we just launched our spring flower subscriptions, so we only offer this during the holidays and into January. But if you want to gift or buy one for yourself, it's the best price of the entire season and is packaged for $199. You get three different shipments one in March, one in April, one in May and it's our best spring flowers. So you're going to get the best of our tulips, our renunculus and our peonies and that's the flowers that everybody wants most. So our subscription members are guaranteed to get our best crop of that and it's the best price. And also, if you give, it is a gift. What people have come back and emailed me saying is like it's the best gift because every time that my friend or family member whoever receives a box of flowers, they call me and thank me again or talk about what's in the box.

Speaker 3:

So it's kind of like this one gift when you keep song giving it keeps on giving, and when you purchase it on the website there's a PDF you can download to like include in a card or something for them. So it's really like four gifts.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because you can and that's great, especially last minute. Or if you just don't know what to get someone or yourself, like Daniel, saying you can download the PDF and it tells all about it put that in a card. And so when they get it, they're like oh my gosh, this is so cool because that's not a really common gift. And then when the bouquets or the boxes start showing up in each month, what month is it? March, april, may?

Speaker 3:

March, April, May, and you can order it at pedal pickerscom.

Speaker 2:
