<v Speaker 1>Jared, Katie and Josh Mix one.

<v Speaker 2>Hundred quickly do a quick request of both of you.

<v Speaker 2>Sure this is real, simple, simple little request. Yeah, stop

<v Speaker 2>saying bet.

<v Speaker 3>No, I'm not going to do that. No, you could

<v Speaker 3>both stop saying.

<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to do that.

<v Speaker 2>I texted you that. Yeah, you've texted it. Josh has

<v Speaker 2>texted it. I've heard you say it a few times.

<v Speaker 1>I just said it to you.

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I can get my blanket. How much time I go?

<v Speaker 3>Two minutes? Oh? Bet, stop it.

<v Speaker 4>That's why you're both too old to be saying.

<v Speaker 3>This is a middle school thing.

<v Speaker 2>I heard my daughter's friends say it yesterday, and you've

<v Speaker 2>blown way past I.

<v Speaker 1>Know, but still like this is the word they can say.

<v Speaker 3>No, it's a.

<v Speaker 4>Lot of things we can't get away with. Skibbitty is one.

<v Speaker 3>No one it sounds stupid.

<v Speaker 4>No, it doesn't know dude, I love it because I

<v Speaker 4>think it's perfect.

<v Speaker 3>I they hear you say it, bet? What do we bet? What?

<v Speaker 4>You know? My favorite part is when I said bet,

<v Speaker 4>and then I texted you all the little emojis with

<v Speaker 4>sunglasses next.

<v Speaker 3>To it, like you bet. I don't even with that.

<v Speaker 2>I don't even remember what that text was in regards

<v Speaker 2>to but yeah, you told me to post okay, Yeah,

<v Speaker 2>you meane something I said, post it, I love it

<v Speaker 2>and go okay, bet and then you did not. I

<v Speaker 2>didn't response, like I'm not going to acknowledge that kind

<v Speaker 2>of with Jared.

<v Speaker 3>The middle schooling, I know, I think it needs to stop,

<v Speaker 3>to stop that. Well, they're too old to say bet.

<v Speaker 3>Have you ever heard me say bet? No? Not once,

<v Speaker 3>But that's I know, it's stupid.

<v Speaker 4>That's my favorite slang I'm using right now because it

<v Speaker 4>gets that response from everybody, grown ups in a.

<v Speaker 1>DA Like salespeople, they'll say something to me bet.

<v Speaker 4>You know they're going they're.

<v Speaker 2>Going back to their desk. And like Katie's and she's

<v Speaker 2>a woman, why woman who's a mom? Stop saying bet?

<v Speaker 2>Everyone over fifteen, stop saying bet.

<v Speaker 1>That it's funny, like like, gosh, how old is she

<v Speaker 1>even know?

<v Speaker 3>What's the origin of that's ten?

<v Speaker 4>This little girl that I hang out with sometimes she

<v Speaker 4>says bet a lot.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I said, it's a ten year old thing. My

<v Speaker 2>daughter's friend yesterday was standing in the kitchen. She's like,

<v Speaker 2>have a piece of your Easter candy.

<v Speaker 3>My daughter was like sure, she goes okay, beat, I

<v Speaker 3>go thank you instead. I like, all you have to

<v Speaker 3>say is thank you. I'm probably still I'm saying.

<v Speaker 2>I'm still gonna keep saying you have blown away past

<v Speaker 2>the age. And then speaking of your age, you wandered

<v Speaker 2>in this morning, You're like, I just I don't.

<v Speaker 3>Even know who I am. You sound a lot like

<v Speaker 3>my wife.

<v Speaker 4>I know. Well, it's just this time for women, when

<v Speaker 4>you go through this part of your life, it's like

<v Speaker 4>certain things happen and you don't know they were supposed

<v Speaker 4>to happen. And I just came across this thing that says,

<v Speaker 4>if your coffee smells like tuna and you can't remember

<v Speaker 4>anything and you're exhausted all the time, and I'm like, what.

<v Speaker 1>That's supposed to happen to me?

<v Speaker 4>What? And h yeah, I told you the one thing

<v Speaker 4>that's really been hitting me lately. As you know, any

<v Speaker 4>everybody can relate to this. I feel When I was

<v Speaker 4>younger and I used to wait tables, right, I used

<v Speaker 4>to take orders of a twenty top, so twenty people

<v Speaker 4>sitting at a table, and I would not write any

<v Speaker 4>of them down, and I could remember exactly what everybody wanted,

<v Speaker 4>how they want their steak cooked, I'd bring it back

<v Speaker 4>and I'd set everybody stuff in front of them, and

<v Speaker 4>it was almost like a party trick for me, right,

<v Speaker 4>Like it impressed people that I could take an entire

<v Speaker 4>twenty person order.

<v Speaker 2>That is very impressed actually, And I could do gerally

<v Speaker 2>some of those people, those waiters and waitresses screw up

<v Speaker 2>something and they write.

<v Speaker 4>It down and they still screw it up, you know.

<v Speaker 4>But I remember all the books of the Bible. Like,

<v Speaker 4>my memory has been a strong point of mine my

<v Speaker 4>entire life. And again it's a flex of mine that

<v Speaker 4>I've had and I like it. But as I get older,

<v Speaker 4>that's something that's starting to go away.

<v Speaker 3>And ked in this morning, she's like, what's up? Mark?

<v Speaker 1>I know, who are you talking to right now?

<v Speaker 3>Jeremy.

<v Speaker 4>The things that you forget are just completely just you don't.

<v Speaker 3>You're getting that, Periman.

<v Speaker 4>That's how forgetting works, is you don't. It is see

<v Speaker 4>it coming.

<v Speaker 2>My wife is definitely dealing with this. You know, it's starting.

<v Speaker 2>There's something there, yea. And yeah, I think she's talked

<v Speaker 2>to multiple times about her memories just kind of she's

<v Speaker 2>just off.

<v Speaker 3>She's just generally off.

<v Speaker 2>And yesterday she was trying to write things down and

<v Speaker 2>figure out schedules for the summer and da da da da.

<v Speaker 3>And I was just sitting there listening to her because.

<v Speaker 2>We've got kind of like back to back desks in

<v Speaker 2>her office, and she was behind me while I was

<v Speaker 2>at my desk.

<v Speaker 3>She's like, come on, Nicole, what are you doing? Nicole think?

<v Speaker 2>Nicole think like she's doing all this self talk, like

<v Speaker 2>you okay? Back there, She's like, I can't remember anything anymore.

<v Speaker 4>And I feel that so much, like it's almost like

<v Speaker 4>we're getting angry at ourselves because we're so used to

<v Speaker 4>getting it done and winning and just being awesome right,

<v Speaker 4>And I'm sure Nicole is very much like that. Like

<v Speaker 4>Nicole to me feels like she runs your family well.

<v Speaker 4>She gets it done right, and so for her, I

<v Speaker 4>imagine that it's like a step back.

<v Speaker 1>It is it's like, why can't I do this? What

<v Speaker 1>is wrong with me? What happened to me? That I'm

<v Speaker 1>not the Katie I was a couple of years ago?

<v Speaker 1>And so that's what you really fight with yourself a little.

<v Speaker 2>And her job is very detail oriented too. She's like,

<v Speaker 2>I gotta like extra focus on what I'm doing.

<v Speaker 4>Well. We have, like I have certain things I need

<v Speaker 4>to do every day, and every once in all, forget

<v Speaker 4>to do that thing, and I'm like, oh, Like, I

<v Speaker 4>get mad at myself because I don't forget things, or

<v Speaker 4>at least I didn't up until a couple months ago.

<v Speaker 1>And so it is.

<v Speaker 4>And then the smelling things, because they say that you'll

<v Speaker 4>smell things out of nowhere again, the coffee that smells

<v Speaker 4>like tuna or you yourself smells bad, like all of

<v Speaker 4>a sudden, you get a whiff of something and you

<v Speaker 4>think it's you.

<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, is that me?

<v Speaker 1>Why it's smelling?

<v Speaker 4>Phantom smells wherever you go, and so it's just it's

<v Speaker 4>like you think you're going crazy. And I think that,

<v Speaker 4>like for you to be supportive of Nick Knack is

<v Speaker 4>to just be like, you're amazing, You're still awesome, You're

<v Speaker 4>still just killing it.

<v Speaker 1>You're killing it, Nick Knack, You're killing.

<v Speaker 3>I generally just poke fun.

<v Speaker 1>I stop doing that. That's not helping.

<v Speaker 2>And I'm so right when it comes to her running

<v Speaker 2>the household, like it's great because every day when I

<v Speaker 2>wake up in the morning, I have calendar invites because

<v Speaker 2>she stays up a little later than me and just

<v Speaker 2>lays out the schedule like today, I woke up to

<v Speaker 2>two more calendar invites of things going on, and she runs.

<v Speaker 3>A tight ship. I will tell you that right now.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and when that starts to yeah.

<v Speaker 2>I'm looking at a few of these, a few.

<v Speaker 3>Double bookings I saw and wrong mind on things like that.

<v Speaker 1>Don't say anything.

<v Speaker 3>I'll figure you're double booked. Okay, deal with it.

<v Speaker 2>We were just talking briefly about how my wife is

<v Speaker 2>essentially the keeper of the schedule in our house and

<v Speaker 2>I love her for that. I can't tell you how

<v Speaker 2>much I appreciate that, because she just keeps us all

<v Speaker 2>in line and on track.

<v Speaker 3>And then Katie was saying, there's actually like a term

<v Speaker 3>for that.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's called man keeping.

<v Speaker 4>And the term this is its definition, the unpaid, social

<v Speaker 4>and emotional labor of managing a male partner's relationships, plans,

<v Speaker 4>and feelings.

<v Speaker 3>And when.

<v Speaker 4>The story, the story that they attached to this article

<v Speaker 4>was a woman and a man who were retiring, right,

<v Speaker 4>and the man was an introvert and so he didn't

<v Speaker 4>have many friends, and so he relied on his wife

<v Speaker 4>to set up plans with other husbands.

<v Speaker 1>So he started playing pickleball with other husbands.

<v Speaker 4>But she had to initiate that she had to get

<v Speaker 4>them to go on a meeting. And now he has

<v Speaker 4>three new friends that he hangs out with all the times.

<v Speaker 4>But he wouldn't have done that on his own. And

<v Speaker 4>so true, so true. And the behavior has been around

<v Speaker 4>for a long time, right, This isn't new. It's just

<v Speaker 4>the term that they attached to it that's made it

<v Speaker 4>all trendy and stuff like that.

<v Speaker 2>It happens a lot too. I talked about this on

<v Speaker 2>the air when it happened. When you have kids, oh yeah,

<v Speaker 2>and you know you're like, I'm fine with my three friends. Yeah,

<v Speaker 2>actually one friend now that I've had from high school.

<v Speaker 3>I'm fine.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm fine with it. I don't need any more friends.

<v Speaker 2>And then Nicole started hanging out with.

<v Speaker 3>The mom groups.

<v Speaker 2>Okay, and she came home She's like, hey, I think

<v Speaker 2>you'd like so and so's dead.

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, like, let me introduce you sometimes. And you know,

<v Speaker 3>I was like, no, I don't want no more news.

<v Speaker 3>I'm good.

<v Speaker 2>I'm setting my ways. And now like two or three

<v Speaker 2>of my good friends are because Nick Knacks set up

<v Speaker 2>dad dates essentially with the mom group.

<v Speaker 1>Well, and it goes even further from there.

<v Speaker 4>I mean your appointments that you have, Like you just said,

<v Speaker 4>she said you a bunch of calendar invites.

<v Speaker 1>You didn't do that. She did all of that.

<v Speaker 4>And that's what they said, Like when she's the one

<v Speaker 4>who remembers everyone's birthdays, keep your friendships alive, interprets your

<v Speaker 4>moods so as to tell the children, dad's a little

<v Speaker 4>under the weather the day.

<v Speaker 3>Everybody be quiet, exactly.

<v Speaker 4>And they're saying, like, the reason that's becoming trendy is

<v Speaker 4>because they're saying women are getting burned out because of this,

<v Speaker 4>you know. And so it's like, if you're seeing this

<v Speaker 4>in your relationship, maybe you know, give a little love

<v Speaker 4>your wife's way and be like, hey, I appreciate all

<v Speaker 4>the extra calendar invites that you're creating. And you know

<v Speaker 4>what I mean, keeping everybody you just went through the

<v Speaker 4>whole easter thing. I bet you nicknacked it a lot

<v Speaker 4>of it, all.

<v Speaker 3>Of it, all of it.

<v Speaker 4>Well thin, you know, that's really big of you to

<v Speaker 4>admit that she just did all of it, you know,

<v Speaker 4>so maybe keep that mind something.

<v Speaker 3>Special of her superpowers. I'm not going to nicknack it.

<v Speaker 1>Well, it's all of our.

<v Speaker 3>Well, yes it is most of you.

<v Speaker 2>I do a lot around the house too, so there's

<v Speaker 2>there's a you know, there's a balance, and there is

<v Speaker 2>that I just finished the basement for family because it's

<v Speaker 2>with my own two hands.

<v Speaker 4>In this article that again the thing that was highlighted

<v Speaker 4>was the people who were tiring. The woman says, in

<v Speaker 4>the grand scheme of things, while it's frustrating, it isn't

<v Speaker 4>a deal breaker because he's supportive in other ways and

<v Speaker 4>handles other responsibilities that I'd rather not tack.

<v Speaker 1>He correct, so it's a trade off.

<v Speaker 4>But this I think the thing that really is overwhelming

<v Speaker 4>is having to deal with everybody's well being.

<v Speaker 3>Its true, I completely you know, and she does handle

<v Speaker 3>a ton.

<v Speaker 4>It's one thing for you to deal with tasks throughout

<v Speaker 4>the day, but when you're dealing with.

<v Speaker 3>The day to day everything and.

<v Speaker 4>People's emotions, like who do they come to when they're

<v Speaker 4>feeling sad and feeling damn you?

<v Speaker 2>She's looked at me and said, you, I don't if

<v Speaker 2>I die like you're going to be in a world

<v Speaker 2>of her, you better hire somebody, which is always a

<v Speaker 2>weird conversation. When she's out of nowhere. Well, she comes

<v Speaker 2>at me. She's like, if I were to die.

<v Speaker 4>I'm sure it's like it's heavy, or at least weighs

<v Speaker 4>on her mind a little.

<v Speaker 3>I'm like, is that soon? I'm not getting any younger?

<v Speaker 3>And like, I got you know, I got it?

<v Speaker 1>Never mind, Do you have some backup?

<v Speaker 3>I mean, yeah, you're A and B.

<v Speaker 1>Listen, they ain't gonna handle that schedule like nicknack.

<v Speaker 4>Damn.

<v Speaker 2>They know she's gonna hold on tight to this one.

<v Speaker 3>Take honey,
