And I got the big vet bill anyways. For this, but. Tann: Yeah, well. How much does something like that go for? Kenz: Well, well, we took him in because we thought that he was like, I thought he swallowed some laundry or something. So they did x-rays and no like laundry, like clothes. Yeah. So I thought maybe something was stuck in his intestines or something. And so I got them to do x-rays and blood work like the whole nine yards. so that vet visit was like, Jens: How much were x-rays this past time? Like detergent? Oh like a item, a clothes item. So I thought maybe something was stuck in his intestines or something and so I got them to do x-rays and blood work at like the whole nine yards. So that visit was like... Tann: Like a sock or something. Kenz: just shy of $900. Jens: Just shy of $900. Jesus. And then when we got the bad news that he had a massive tumor and all that stuff, and we decided to ultimately euthanize him and put him to sleep before he would really start suffering. Well, before he would bleed out is what they were saying internally. Tann: ⁓ dang. Kenz: And then when we got the bad news that he had a massive tumor and all that stuff, and we decided to ultimately euthanize him and put him to sleep before he would really start suffering.

Kenz: the euthanization plus the we get a the urn and the cremation the private cremation and yeah so not yet soon I think probably it's been two weeks so I know Tann: Cremade, yeah. kenz: positively flawless.

Kenz: Well you like you But it you should track your cycle in correspondence with the moon and then you'll know can I do that for no Tann: the moon cycles. Jens: Because I'm supposed to start my cycle next week and it's usually the week before is when I get full of rage. But if you chart your cycle, it corresponds with the food. Can you do that for me? Can I do that? Tann: Yeah. Because every time you have like a really shitty week, it always lines up with like the moon being crazy. Jens: Yeah, isn't there like a red moon or something? An eclipse? Is it a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse? Kenz: Yeah, isn't there like a red moon or something? This week, next weekend. it a lunar? Lunar. Yeah. And that's when the sun is behind it? Lunar.

All right, mother from hockey, we cordially cordially invite you to come talk about moon cycles. So I quit raging for no reason. Tann: hahaha Yeah. Right. But yeah, should we move into some trivia or should we get to the nitty gritty? Jens: Yes, let's start it, lighten it up a little bit with some trivia. I prepared a little, it's very short, but it's what we've been watching lately and it's Beauty and the Beast. And actually, Gracie loves this movie so much. We watch it at least once a week. And she called Trent, oh, she called Trent a crazy old loon the other day. Tann: Yeah, let's get some happy feels in here. Kenz: They call... what's his name? Maurice?

She has been replaced body. Well, not body. She's been replaced mind and soul by a teenager like a 16 year old. Jens: Okay. Tann: Yeah, it happened to Frankie too. You just didn't fully realize it because you had a baby. Jens: She's been replaced, mind and soul, by a teenager, like a 16 year old. Yeah. Kenz: Yeah. Jens: ⁓ I fully realized it. But I was also preoccupied with the baby. Tann: That's what I mean. You didn't fully experience it because you were Jens: Yeah, I remember her turning three and I was like, wait, what?

Jens: Wee wee. ⁓ A little tidbit, did you know that Be Our Guest, the song was originally written for him, to perform to him, and not Belle? Kenz: Interesting. ⁓ Jens: Mm-hmm. Right? What? Tann: That is interesting. Because I feel like if they would have sang that to him, it would have like changed the whole movie. Kenz: He would have.

Jens: I thought I was catching catching you guys and then I'm the one that thought of the mirror, okay? Kenz: You Tann: Well, I was thinking of that in my head actually, cause I was like, there's in there a mirror that moves. Jens: That moves. I've read so many like retellings of... Why they become like that? Just like retellings of fairy tales. So sometimes it gets cloudy in my head of what the like Disney movie story is versus what all of the other, you know what I mean? I do. In some of the like Captain Hook books that I've read, he has like a lot of magic. Kenz: But I've read so many retellings of these- No, just retellings of fairy tales so sometimes it gets cloudy in my head of what the Disney movie story is versus what all of the other- You know what mean?

Like the one that's jumping out at me is like School of Rock. Jens: side. ⁓ Can't get it out because she's laughing. I used to like watch movies. Like the one that's jumping out at me is like School of Rock. I think we watch that, well me, I watch that movie after school every day for probably a year. That's a good movie. No, that's not normal. That is not a normal trait. It's a super neurodivergent normal. Kenz: I think we watch that, well me, I watch that movie after school every day for probably a year. Tann: That's not normal. My kids still do that. Kenz: No, that's not normal. That is not a normal trait. It's a super neurodivergent normal. But it's like, I would literally watch it the regular way, how it was intended to be watched. And then I would start it over again with the commentary and watch it with the commentary. No commentary. Tann: Well... Yeah. Mm-hmm. Jens: But it's like, I would literally watch it the regular way, how it was intended to be watched, and then I would start it over again with the commentary and watch it with the commentary. Like subtitles? No commentary. Like the behind the scenes commentary? Yes. On DVDs. Tann: What? Kenz: Yes. And with the DVD was School of Rock. They had two commentaries. They had one with the like older actors. So the director and the older actors like Jack Black and Mike White and whatever. And then they also had a commentary with the kids in the band. So I watched both of them always. Jens: They had two commentaries. They had one with the like older actors. So the director Tann: ⁓ Jens: Ha ha! Tann: Okay, well, we don't do that. Kenz: Ha ha! Jens: I think I did I think I watched something with you like that one time and I was like We're watching this and someone else is talking and I cannot be in this room anymore Because I can't I said just popped into my brain. I was like, I'm being transported back into that moment Tann: Why are you watching this? Kenz: Yeah, so that's one Yeah, super not normal, but I thought it was completely normal. and then like also I'll seek out shows and movies that I've seen before that bring me comfort as well. That's also not a normal thing apparently. So TV shows and movies that I feel like a sense of comfort watching. Yeah. Tann: Yeah. Jens: Yeah, no. No, thank you. And then like also I'll seek out shows and movies that I've seen before that bring me comfort as well. That's also not a normal thing, Seek out what? TV shows and movies that I feel like a sense of comfort. Like to rewatch? Yeah. Yeah, that's normal. That's not normal. Kenz: That's not normal. Most people watch a show once and move on with their life. Jens: Most people watch the show once and they'll fall in with their life. ⁓ yeah, no. Tann: I feel like everyone has a comfort show. Like you ask every single person in this world and they probably have a comfort show. Jens: Everyone has one show at least. Kenz: Yeah, I don't know. I have many, Jens: Yeah, I have many but Kenz: This is apparently not normal But when I watch ⁓ TV shows or movies or even like anything with ⁓ some sort of like people, right? I'm watching these things, ⁓ I need to know what else they've Jens: TV shows or movies or anything with some sort of semi-famous people, right? When I'm launching these things, I need to know what else they've done. Yeah, I'm like that too. Where is that person from? My brain will not let me enjoy the program that's on. Kenz: So I can't, my brain, yeah, my brain will not let me enjoy the program that's on until I have figured out where I could possibly know them from. Jens: ⁓ I think I had the IMDB app like downloaded so I can just click it and search a name ⁓ Kenz: I literally yes, it's in my favorites app or in my favorites folder Tann: You guys come by that honestly because of mom and dad. 1000 % Kenz: 100 % yeah. Jens: Yes. Well, we were even watching the Canada game and we're like, ⁓ how old is that guy? Let me look it up. How old is that guy? Yeah. Semi-famous people or whatever, public figures. I need to know. It also made me feel really old doing that because a lot of them are under 30 years old other than Crosby and a couple others. But I was like, ⁓ God. Kenz: That's what I mean. Yeah semi famous people or whatever public figures I need to know Tann: Yeah Kenz: years old. Tann: McDavid is a year younger than I. Jens: Yes, he is. Yeah, Crosby was the oldest on the team, right? I Doughty was 35 or something. know, mom asked me what Connor McDavid's birthday year was and I was like, 97. Pretty sure it's 97. Kenz: Mm-hmm. He sure is. Yeah, Crosby was the oldest on the team. Him and Drew Doughty might be. Tann: I can in. Kenz: I imagine your dowdy might be close to the same age, but Crosby's birthday is for sure 87. And I don't know about dowdy. He's wearing it. Tann: Yeah, but you never know because Connor Bidard's number is 98, right? Like and you could be like Jens: True, yeah. Kenz: But then I started spiraling because I was like, well, is Marner's birth year 93? Like, is he that old? I don't think he's that old. So then that's the other thing. I like looked it up and I was like, why is this his number? And like, I was trying to find, but that's not really like public knowledge. Anyways, so that's, I think if I remember. Jens: Is Marner's birth year 93? Like is he that old? I don't think he's that No, no, I think he's a younger one. I looked it up and I why is this his number? Like I was trying to find out. Yeah. No, it's chaos. Tann: How old is he? Is he like 95? Jens: If I had my phone, it'd be all under my recent searches. What is his name? Mariner? Tann: Or is he younger than McDavid? Mitch Marner. Mitch Marner. Kenz: No, I Marner Marner. I feel like he was like a 98 ⁓ Jens: He's a 97 also. Oh, he's 97 too. Yeah, May 5th. Anyways, that was a Tann: Yeah, I feel like he was after McDavid. ⁓ same here. Kenz: 98 or 99 me oh he's a 97 to Anyways that was a rabbit trail Tann: That freaking Canada team has my heart, okay? Kenz: Same. Same. I'm very sad for Crosby. get to play. Jens: Yeah. Tann: I know I saw his face and I just started bawling in the Olympic gold medal hockey game. Yeah. And then Lucas started crying and he was like, why did you have to wake me up? Kenz: Hmm? Jens: I know when he walked off the bench. Ugh, what a day. Kenz: Awwww. Jens: ⁓ buddy, you wanted me too! Tann: And I was like, I can't control the outcome of the game, my love. I can't. Otherwise Canada would have the gold. Kenz: Mm. Jens: Why did you wake me up? ⁓ Tann: Yeah. Jens: piggybacking on the obsessively looking things up and seeing ⁓ when ⁓ new music came out or whatever, we would listen to or would listen to it. And then I'd go on A to Z lyrics dot com ⁓ and listen to the song while reading all the lyrics, which is I probably know ⁓ every song that Kenz: A-Z Lyrics.com and listen to the song while reading all the lyrics. That's why I probably know every older song is 90s and 2000s songs on the radio. Tann: Yeah. Jens: Every older song, like 90s and 2000s song that comes on the radio. Tann: And now think about it, you can just click that one button, you see all the lyrics like it's karaoke. Jens: I know it's crazy and that I guess too like karaoke-ing. That's probably something that we thought was normal. We thought was normal every night karaoke before bed. Kenz: It's so nice. Poor A to Z lyrics. Yeah, yeah. That's not normal. The sheer amount of karaoke-ing we did in our house. Not normal. Tann: Yeah. Jens: karaoke-ing we did in our house. Not normal. Tann: Yeah, we're a very not good musically, but we're a very musical family. music is definitely a staple in our house. Kenz: ⁓ for sure. Yeah. Jens: Yeah, every weekend morning the radio was on Mach 75. Kenz: Yeah, trying to wake us all up I know it's so loud. Yeah Tann: Yeah. Jens: And now it's the TV music thing. If you go over to mom and dad, can you turn this down? I can't even hear you talk. I just always sneak turn it down when we get there. Tann: Dad said his favorite thing to do home alone is put the TV on 100 for like the volume on the music and just dance and clean. Jens: Yeah, yeah, I know. literally walked in on that a couple times. Kenz: Ooh, I just thought of another one that's probably not normal. I have to curate a playlist to get in the shower. Every time? Well, it's like the same playlist, but I have sat down and curated a specific playlist. It has to be in the same order every single time. Jens: I have to curate a playlist to get in the shower. Every time? Well it's like the same playlist but I have sat down and curated a specific playlist that has to be in the same order every single How long of showers do you take? Tann: ⁓ no, yeah that's- This is the song I wash my hair to. This is the song I condition it to. that's probably not normal. ⁓ how long are your showers? Because I feel like you should only need like two songs. Jens: Yeah, that's weird, Curating? Yeah. Two to three songs. ⁓ Kenz: Yeah. when it's hair wash day, then I need a little bit longer. So it's like, what do mean? Why? I have like a four step hair wash program. Tann: Why? Jens: What do you mean why? I have like a four step hair wash program. All right. That's hilarious. OK, we're going Tann: Alright! Kenz: See? Not normal, I knew it. funny thing is is that I have a, it's called the Currently Vibin playlist that I've had for years. ⁓ So lots of older music and newer and whatever, it's like quite a mix is on there. ⁓ And I just keep changing the order like, Jens: just keep changing the order of like halfway down the playlist. Like I just, haven't even made a new playlist. It's just that I create the order and I start the playlist halfway down to match what I want. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Kenz: halfway down the playlist. Like I just, haven't even made a new playlist. It's just that I curate the order and I start the playlist halfway down to match what I want. Yeah, super cool. So yeah. Tann: Again with the musical family, Kenzie's probably karaoke-ing in the shower, that's what takes her so long. Jens: Yeah Kenz: Definitely, was rockin', rockin' golden the other day. Jens: I wonder what... acoustic acoustics. I should look and see how long the texts apart were. Okay, I'm going to shower and I feel like it was like 20 minutes. Okay, I'm ready. Tann: the koo-dicks in there. Kenz: think it was like 20 minutes. Okay. Tann: Yeah, but you got to get dressed and stuff in between. Jens: How long does it take to get dressed at night? Kenz: Not very long. Tann: Sometimes you just want to sit on the bed naked. Jens: Okay. Kenz: you have any or am I just the weirdo? Jens: Alright, let me I literally could not could not use my brain the last couple days. So I asked a listener, an avid listener in my household. Shh. No, a listener. Kenz: listener in my household. Your husband? Tann: Frankie? Jens: Yes, Frankie. ⁓ His, his there. See, this is why could never keep a secret as to what my baby was the second time. Anyways, ⁓ one of his was how not like violence, but like how aggressive his older siblings were, or his brother to be specific. He thought that. Kenz: Thank you. His... His... There. never keep a secret as to what my baby was the second time. Anyways, one of his was how, not like violence, but like how aggressive his older siblings were. Or his brother to be specific. ⁓ Tann: Yeah, I feel that. Kenz: Redacted! ⁓ Jens: Trent Trent not Trent redacted Tann: You Jens: She was squeaking Kenz: She's freaking! ⁓ Jens: Sorry. They have had a broken nose from said. fight, slapped on it and now has a crooked nose. Tann: ⁓ jeez. Kenz: Okay, what else? Jens: ⁓ Freedom at such a young age, his parents not knowing where he was after school, had to call around to four or five different houses and then they're like, ⁓ yeah, we fed him. Send him home, please. That's also a small town though. Yeah. Tann: I've been in a small town. Yeah, I was going to say living in a small town myself. There's people here even that are like very lenient and I'm like, I come from a bigger city and I'm not that way. Thousand percent. Jens: Yeah, a bigger city and a bigger family too, right? The one that he said that I was like, ⁓ yeah, that was like normal-ish. Not normal, but maybe not. But when you like go to a big event or friend's parents, our parents' friend's house that had kids the same age, we would all go downstairs and you wouldn't see us until we were hungry or someone got hurt. And he said that and I was like, I think the only difference, nobody checked on them. Kenz: I think you're sending a bigger fan. Tann: Yeah. Jens: Whereas somebody was down every hour to check on us. But literally disappearing and not coming up, not resurfacing until you're hungry, have to pee, or somebody's injured. Kenz: The one that he said that I was like, ⁓ yeah, that was like normal-ish. Not normal, but maybe not. But when you like go to a big event or a friend's parents, our parents' friend's house that had kids the same age, we would all go downstairs and you wouldn't see us until we were hungry or someone got hurt. He said that and I was like, I think the only difference, nobody checked on them. Whereas like somebody was down like every hour to check on us. Yeah, true. Tann: Yeah. Kenz: Yeah. Time to go. Yeah. Tann: ⁓ yeah. Okay, I got a good one. Always having to go around the room and hug everyone goodbye. Kenz: Okay, let's hear it. Jens: Yes. ⁓ yes. That is extremely not normal. Going to a family. Yeah. Kenz: Yes! ⁓ yes. That is extremely not normal. Going to a family... Let her talk. Yes. Tann: Yes. No, it is not. Especially for the boyfriends coming into our relationships. Yeah. It is a lot. David was like for the first time, like, what the heck? This huggy family. Jens: Yes! Kenz: Yeah. Jens: Yeah. Cool. Yeah, well even just going to like his family and going to go be like, ⁓ goodbye. ⁓ nobody hugs here. I guess I'm going to just hug you anyway because I already started it. Kenz: Well even just going to like his family and going to go be like, oh goodbye, oh nobody hugs you. I guess I'm gonna just hug you anyway because I already started it. Yeah, yeah. Tann: Bye. Yeah. Yeah, very huggy family we come from. Jens: Yeah, loving. Tann: which is fine and whatever, but it's not normal. Kenz: Nope, not a normal thing. I like it. Well, you'd like start the leaving train and it would take like frickin 45 minutes to get out. Tann: And I used to hate it at big family vengeance functions. Jens: I like it. Yeah, that's fair. minutes to get out. ⁓ my god, that's actually the other social media thing I saw. Did I send that to you guys or did somebody send that to me? It was like my, I don't know if it said neurodivergent, but like my husband who isn't a touchy feely person stuck at the front door because everybody's saying goodbye for the last 15, 20 minutes. Just like staring at the couch, like dissociating. It was funny. I should find it. Tann: Yeah Kenz: Like my husband who isn't a touchy-feely person stuck at the front door because everybody's sitting by for the last 15 minutes. It just like, skips out like, just like, see. It was like, I should say. would be me. Like, no, it's like, try to maybe see. Jens: I was like, that looks like Trent, maybe David. Tann: Dakota's right in there. Jens: Dakota loves the love. Kenz: to go to love's love, yeah for sure. And then there's me and I'm like, I like the love to a point, but when I want to be done, I wanna be done. Tann: Yeah. Get the fuck away from me. Jens: You Irish exit at that point. You just go. I'm like, ⁓ where'd Kenzie go? ⁓ she's on. Yeah, literally. Tann: Yeah, that's fair. Kenz: Yeah, I just leave. Tann: Yeah. Kenz: Like remember, remember that? don't know. I don't know if it was Christmas or when. No, it wasn't Christmas. This like past year, everybody was at Mom and Dad's like you guys were downtown and the kids were like unruly and I couldn't handle it. So I just left and then mom texted. She's like, you OK? I'm like, yeah, I'm good. I just needed to go home for a bit. Just needed just needed to touch my own. Tann: Dakota's still here. Jens: This year? past year, everybody was at Mom and Dad's, like you guys were downtown, and the kids were like unruly and I couldn't handle it, so I just left. And then Mom texted, she's like, you okay? I'm like, yeah, I'm good. I just needed to go home for a bit. Fair enough. Just needed to touch my own. That's how I feel like this week. Like, I'm just gonna go. Kenz: the house. Yeah. You should have. I told you to come over earlier today and you didn't. Tann: Mom and Dad, I'm coming home. Jens: Yeah, literally. told you to come over earlier today and you didn't. I know, but then they started watching a movie and weren't on me, so I sat down and started prepping a little bit. Any other ones? I guess we had a couple of responses on our social Yeah, guys, thank you. Shout out to our commenters. Right? Come on, guys, help us out. One was... Kenz: Mm-hmm. Fair. Any other ones? I guess we had a couple responses on our socials, Bye, guys. Thank you. Wish there was more, you slackers. Tann: Commenter. Jens: Tasting bland food thinking like salt and pepper were seasoned spicy spicy seasonings Kenz: Spicy. Spicy seasoning. Yeah. Jens: Um, one was lemonade, like the drink lemonade being called bug juice. I can see it though. It like attracts the bugs. That's what you put in like the wasp traps. Sugary. if she knows the reasoning as to why it was named bug juice. Yeah, we should. Text her after this. Um. Tann: Bug juice? Kenz: One was lemonade, like the drink lemonade being called bug juice. I can see it though, it like attracts the bugs. That's what you put in like the wasp traps. Yeah, we're gonna have to follow up with her and see if she knows the reasoning as to why it was named bug juice in her house. I would like to know. Tann: Yeah, I'm not sure about that one, but... Jens: ⁓ this one has a double. They commented. My dog gave me fleas once. Didn't think much of it until my 20s. Tann: ⁓ Jens: That's amazing, I didn't even know that was possible. Tann: I do wonder if she actually got fleas or if it was just lice and it was a coincidence. Jens: Maybe. Very possible. Kenz: Maybe, yeah. Or if it was like a placebo kind of thing where she saw the dog with the fleas and then was like, oh, I'm so itchy, you know? I have to follow up on that too. Jens: I I'm so itchy. Yeah, we'll have to have to follow up with these guys. Another one from this person was aside from getting the fleas, hearing people talking that aren't there with the ghost emoji. Tann: Yeah. Kenz: She's a medium for anybody who's confused about that. Jens: Well that would... yeah, state it. That makes sense. But I guess it's not normal for everyone for that to happen to you. I see ghosts. Tann: ⁓ yeah. Kenz: That makes sense. Yeah. Nope, certainly not. Yeah, any other ones you guys can think of? Jens: Not off the top of my head. Like I said, I had a really hard time with this one. Tann: Not. Kenz: Like I said, I Tann: I... yeah. ⁓ Kenz: I also think, I feel like we've touched on this so much in our episodes, but just I think the amount of time that our immediate family spends with each other is very abnormal. Tann: Yeah, totally. Jens: Yep. Tann: which I feel very lucky in that way, but... Kenz: Me too, yeah. Jens: Me too. Yeah. Yes. After leaving your house last weekend, Frankie's like, I just wish we lived closer to them. Can we find a house there, Mom? I know. So they can be the terrors of the town. Kenz: Aww. Can we find the house there? You're gonna have to move. I know. So they can be the terrors of the town. Tann: Awwww! Kenz: god, imagine them as teenagers. Together. Tann: Maybe not. Jens: as teenagers together. ⁓ Frankie up there for a week in the summer. Tann: ⁓ I thought you meant like for the school year. I was like, please God, no. Kenz: Please God, no. Jens: No, just for a week in the summer. Kenz: There you go. Tann: That's okay. Yeah. Jens: Yeah Let us know if there's a topic that you're interested in that you want us to talk about.
