This is our very first episode of Who gave us the mic? What idiot gave us the mic. How did this start is the question, and I'll tell you that this began. Um, because it wasn't my idea. Well, it's actually because you used to ask me my opinion of things going on. Mm-hmm. And whether you should be honest or truthful with how you feel about situations. Mm-hmm. And so I always said, well, if you want me to be honest, and then she would. Give you my honest truth. Well that's just'cause it was the opposite of what you wanted. Yeah. Rude to hear. Um, yeah. It was rude a little bit. It was, but we also think we are funny as shit. Okay. Let's be honest. We are funny. We are, to us, we think we're funny. Well, what did your husband think of it? Of what making this podcast. He, he never said a word. Right. My kids begged me not to. Mm. My kids, in the beginning, they were a little off actually. Yeah. Yeah. They weren't too sure about us doing this, but then they were like, eh, you two are funny. I think you could do it. I think we're funny. And that's all that matters. I think we're hilarious. Scott thinks we're funny. Mark, not so much. Yeah. Uh, I think we're funny. I don't know. Um, it's just for fun. We don't care. We're having fun. You like it, you like it, you love it. You love it. You don't bye. That's her honest opinion, sadly is Well, I mean, you ain't gotta be rude. Just laugh or don't laugh. I. Yeah, that's what I do like, or don't like. Share or don't share. Follow or don't follow, but follow. We prefer you to follow actually, we're hoping that it takes off. Yeah. Um, so what else? Um, what happened today in our office? Trying to figure out how we're gonna set this up. Yeah. We're still trying to figure out that and where we're gonna do it and how we're gonna do it. Um, we've been friends a long, long time.

years. Yeah. Right. Yeah. That's why I got most of my greys So let's talk about that. I did want to talk, okay. This is one thing I think people should know about you and me. Okay? Okay, buddy. Um, do you remember when we met the very first time? Oh, God. You still harpen on that? I do. I do. I remember before I met you. When they, you s spillt shit all over my, like, that was not before, that's the day I met your ass. Well, I, I thought they told me and I was like, who is this bitch? They came out and said, somebody spilled, I bought a tablecloth for one of our friends. Right. A nice white one. Whatever trailer park. It looks so pretty. And it looked so pretty. And then somebody spilled soda all over. I did. I did. I felt so bad. But what was your honest opinion of me at that time? Well, at first I was like, who's this bitch? Right? Spilling shit all over the place. And then you and Scott had a party and I didn't know you, but I knew Scott, but this was, I lived in Daytona at the time. Yeah. And, um, people were at the party and I was at the person's house. Yous spilled the tablecloth on mm-hmm. Waiting for him to hang out with me and our friends, and they were all at your party. So I sat there. You don't, you might not have known that you, I sat there, which you didn't know me at the time, so that's why I wasn't invited. But it's not a big deal. It was like, y'all party. I thought that I, well, you were there when I spilled the drink. No, I wasn't. They told me who spilt it, and I was like, who is this bitch? Oh, so when I actually saw you is when you confronted me and said, so you're the bitch that spilled the soda. Oh, I said that. Yeah. And I thought, thank you. The first thought of me was, she's a bitch. Wow, dude. So I said, so you're the one that's spill the soda? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I said, well, I cleaned it up. I felt so bad too. It was stained. Okay, well who buys fucking white? Okay. I was trying to be cute for someone that has parties. We know about it. Yeah. So that's how we met. But I don't, I don't remember not liking you. I just remember like this bitch, so I'm sorry. No, no, no. I, I, no, I didn't not like you. I did think my first, I would tell you this. This is what I like The first time I met you, that situation, you confronted me there at that house, right? Yeah. The funniest part is before. Scott said to me, alright, so you're gonna meet this person, this person, this person, this person. Oh, Scott ran his mouth about me. He did. He said, now Cindy on the other hand, she has a big mouth. Wow. So you might get along with her. Wow.'cause you got a big mouth too. Right. Right. You remember them calling us? Big mouth bass. Yes. Motherfucker. Mark used to say that so much to me. Big mouth bass. Big mouth bass. He's a, I wasn't a fan of Mark's when I first met him. I ain't a fan of him now, I'm be honest with you. That's because of things. Well, well he was a player. Dirty bird. Yep. You know, I don't like dirty birds. Don't, it's a worm, but remember when was it Mark that said to Scott, your wi your girlfriend? Yeah. Has the biggest mouth ever girl that I've ever met. Yeah. He said I would never, yes, that's what he said. Ever date. A girl with as big of a mouth as he, well, guess what? God punished him. I forewarned him. I remember, you know what I said to him? Oh, if you want me to be honest, I said to him that night that he said it to me. I can remember we were sitting in Scott's apartment at the, um, Beachside, the beach side, at that apartment at the table, and I said. You got the biggest mouth one there is buddy. And he said, no. No, that ain't, I tricked him then. That's why I thought I tricked everybody too. Yeah, no, I trick. I tricked him. I even cooked him lunches and stuff. Yeah, that was a big trick. Ask me for a lunch today, bitch. I'll go through by through the drive through and get you some lunch. Yeah. I ain't making that trip no more. So that's when we first met and then. Uh, you, you knew Mark and Scott. I knew Scott since he, I was in middle school. Yeah. Scott was in high school. I know. And when I first saw him, oh God, you want me to be honest. You gonna get stuck on this one again? Well, ain't no prize now, so go ahead and speak it. Speak the truth. Well, I was on my school bus. Mm. With some friends. I'm gonna go ahead and take a sip. Is that alcohol? Mm. So we pulled up at the high school to pick up the high school kids and here comes a couple of my friends walking out of the school with Scott. And I was like, who's he? Cute. Um, and it was back in the day when all the guys that had long hair, you know, guns and roses, Metallica thing, and I was like. Who's that? I think I asked his sister. Oh, okay. And she's like, that's my brother. I'm like, oh, sh. And then a couple days later, I seen him with some hoe Wasn't me. I was a hoe. But it wasn't me. Yeah. I wasn't that hoe. So that was end of that story. Yeah. And then, anyway, so that's when I first saw Scott and then, yeah. But then you ended up hanging out with him and partying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then we all hung out and partied and. Yeah, did what We did beach fleas pretty much hung out at Beachside. Mm-hmm. Drinking, drinking, partying, partying, having fun. Not me. I was sweet and innocent. Maryland, are you being honest right now? Not really. I mean, and then you moved here. Ruined everything. No, you didn't ruin nothing. I know.'cause you found your soulmate bitch. You're right. You're right. And so did Mark and Scott. Yeah. They're lucky. I mean, thank you's. That's how I see it. I don't know how they ever lived without us. Exactly. Exactly. If you want me to be honest. Mm-hmm. That's the truth. So they were pretty wild, Scott and Mark. Um, so that went on. Anyway, so then we get married. She got married the day after I got married. Mm-hmm. Scott was in my wedding. He walked. He was he, yes. He walked my mom down the aisle with. A different what? Some things called buns. Yeah, yeah. Cumberland Buns or something like that. Was'em called? Say it again? Buns. Cumberland Buns. Buns. Them bun things that go underneath the jacket. The colored ones. The, the, the cu Cumberland bun. No, it's the vest part. Right? The vest. Okay. A different color vest. He wore the vest, the match, my wedding. Right. And then for his wedding, he used the same and he just changed the, that would be my wedding. Yeah. Your wedding. He just changed the vest. Correct. And the reason why we weren't in each other's weddings. That's right. That's right. Is because we were planning it was just too much for us to do that. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. So then we difference, so we got, and now it's almost 31 years later, we have some regrets. That's for another episode. Yeah. Yeah, it's, it's fine. That'll probably be titled, oh, it's coming. Oh, the regrets we have now, we're happily married. She's got 55 kids. I have two. And a grandbaby. And I do have a grandbaby. So, alright, so we're talking about when we first met, right? Yes. Okay.

Okay. And, um, off of Ridgewood. Yeah. Okay. So behind Dunking Donuts. Yes. Remember when we watched Scott was into NASCAR back then? Oh, here we go. I know what you're gonna say. Okay. How do you remember this stuff? Okay. Because this is the kind of stuff that like. If you want me to be honest, makes me giggle so hard that I need people to understand. Really? Like that I'm an idiot. Yeah. No, no. You're not an idiot, but you're funny as shit. Okay. When it comes to certain things. Okay, so Scott decided to tell you and trick you. He did trick me on a 24 hour race, dude, I think it was the Rolex 24. It was something. It was a long time. Well, I mean, you should have known something was up when we were spending the night at the had I thought y'all were staying the night.'cause we were friends. We weren't friends. No, no. It wasn't about friendship and Scott was trying to figure out mm-hmm. What? Why didn't you watch it on your own damn TVs? Because Mark wouldn't shut up about us coming over to play cards that night. Oh remember that's when we used to play cards all the time. Okay. So anyway. Scott got said, let's, you said, all right, buddy, let's watch the race together. Who am I root for and root? That was just a joke. I know. I didn't really wanna watch it. Well, but it got, it made him feel good. Okay. Okay. And so you, he said, all right, who's your driver and what did you say? You were rooting for. You don't want to tell. All of a sudden, Tom Petty. That's who I knew. I thought I knew it. Oh, you knew his ass. He just wasn't driving. Scott said, who Richard Petty is who you met? Same thing. Okay, so that was, those were good times. That times the first. Trick of the day, and then Yeah. He said It's almost over. It's almost over. Yeah. Every hour. I'm like, when is this race over? I know it's almost over. It was a lie. It was 24 hours. Yeah, it was, it was the Rolex 24. Yeah. That never happened again. Remember? Remember when I had to tell you that he's lying to you? Yes. Finally, someone tells me. Yeah. Those were good times. Yeah. I went to bed. Yeah. I, I don't remember what I did. I think I got forced to. Stay up and watch that stupid shit with him. Sorry. It's your man, not mine. God, I wasn't staying up. It was around and around Tom Petty. Just going and going. Tom Petty. I don't even think Richard Petty was racing back then. He was. I think he was retired. Dude. No, no, no. I'm gonna check it. I don't know. No, Rachel. Okay. How long ago was that? 30. I mean, Nathan had to have been How long? How old? Four. Three. Right. Yeah. Three or four in that area. Okay. So it had to have been 95, 19 95, 96. I hadn't had Brandon yet or pregnant with him. No, you, you didn't have that was nine seven. Nope. No. So Wow. It was early. God damn. We're old. The fuck. We are old. Damn. Wow, dude. Yeah. Anyway, forget about that. We're not that hard. Let's talk about that, um, where you were working back then now, uh, cleaning hotel rooms. Yes, yes, yes. I did that. I did that as a summer job since I was 13 though. Yeah. That was my real life job for years. Okay. Well I did it as a summer job. Yeah. Oh, bougie. Yeah. No, I worked hotels. Hotels until we become friends. And then you got me every job to now. Oh, there pretty much Yes. Office. Yeah. The first doctor's office was the funniest. Yes, it was. That was probably the best. It was fun. That was the best. One of the best. It was a good one for me to learn. Yeah. From hotels to a doctor's office that I, that was a hard learning lesson, and I'm sure, remember when I took that text to go card? Can you, the patient said, do you take Texaco cards? And I'm like, yeah, I never knew a gas card about, but remember people, this was when credit cards were first coming out, so don't act like I'm that crazy. You know? They probably have, but he still brings that up. That doctor still brings that up. Mm-hmm. To me a lot, all the time. So then we worked there for a few years and then. I went to a billing company. Billing company. Yeah. I loved that job. Medical billing, company job. It was my favorite job. I know. Ever. So went there and then you left me there and then Well, I had 15 kids. Yes. She had 15 kids, so she left me there, which is fine. Remember when you. Go ahead. Say it. What Now? Why is it always so fucking funny to you? Because I think it's funny. This better be good. Remember? No. Remember when you had to help me at the job? Oh, because you in the bathroom clothed the toilet. Yeah, it was clawed. Oh. And I come. Got you. I was like, I need help. I remember. I remember. That's how you know you got good friend because I left. You now did well. They smell your ass. They'll plunge your shit. Yeah. And not tell nobody. It looked like I was the one who, shit. Yeah. I left you doing it, bro. By the way, everybody that used to work there, it wasn't me. Wow. It could have been. And then that's when you were on that sub diet. Sub diet. Yeah. Remember we just went to public so much every day. Babe and Chick-fil-A too though. Chick-fil-A not No. You did that after I was there. Chick-fil-A. Yeah. After I left Oh. Was because me used split a sub every day. Every day, dude. Every day. You're welcome. I know I need to do that now and lose more weight. Yep. Yep. That's, that's the job I found out I had endometriosis. Mm-hmm. That was. Well, they told me that I wouldn't be able to have a kid. Right. That was devastating. Even though I didn't want more kids. I didn't think I wanted, and then you got the angel sent from heaven. I didn't think I wanted more kids, but So it was, it was Well'cause you're being told that you, once you told that you can't. Yeah.'cause we whole time been married like two years by then and we didn't want kids. Yeah. Or any more kids. We had my son. It's a whole different ball game when somebody tells you you can't have it. Yes. What do you mean you're not gonna tell me? Yeah. Yeah. That was devastating. Yeah. But that was at that job. So then you got me another job. Um, was that this? No, we went back. We went back. We went back to the same Oh yeah, doctor. The first doctor. Yes. We went back to that doctor. I was pregnant. Dude, I was, I got pregnant with, I think I went off and on, worked for that doctor probably four times total. You never learned your lesson. It was like, you know how when you, like you're married, couple young. Yeah, yeah. Well, when you're young, you're dating. No, no, but you're dating the guy. And he cheats on you and breaks your heart. Mm-hmm. And you're like, but no, it really was a good time. And then you went back. And then you go back. Yeah. And he cheats on you again. And you're like, no, but really I'm that good girl, please. I love you. Yeah. I was always like that with loser boyfriends too in the past. Again, they know who they are. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. So I, I went back there when I was pregnant because, but you went, it wasn't gonna work. But I hadn't come back yet. No, IL yeah, it brought me back for that. Yeah. That was when, um, the two doctors were working together there. Remember I drove with you to Jacksonville to help do job there for that one doctor. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Only once or twice I went up there. That was, yeah. That was a collection account. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then you got me another doctor job, and then the, another job, doctor job. I did, I did because that doctor closed down and moved to. Somewhere because the angel was sent from Yeah. Seems to be a theme in this, this little party. Yes. Sorry. Yeah. That's not good. If you want me to be honest, and now I work with your billing company. Mm, mm-hmm. Yeah, that's, that's fun. And then, but you also work in the doctor's office? Yes. Right. Part-time and part-time. Part-time and part-time. And here we are.'cause it makes you happy. Yes. The people there. Yeah. Happy. Of course, of course, of course, of course. So happy. Yes. That's why you stay. You're right. It is. It's partly, I think a lot of, a lot of the jobs that I think we've taken on a lot of the times it comes down to the relationships you have with each individual and stuff like that. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes it's a lot harder to, um. You know, deal with people that slack or have issues, um, but you still have some kind of bond. You know? I think that's the No, for sure. Main thing for sure is that you're bonded to them for Yeah. Especially how long you work with them. Yeah, that's true. And if you want me to be honest, there's a lot of people there that got some work ethic issues. That's for another. That's another, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's for another, another day. Yeah, that's for another day. But yeah, so she's got me every job since I was an adult. Yeah. She talked me into doing this. You're welcome. They're like, damn, it's only gonna get better. It'll only get, it can only get better. Right. That's right. Like this has gotta be the like the lowest that we're gonna be. The lowest. Well, I mean, you know, it's nerve wracking starting up. Oh, oh. You know? Oh yeah. And all the new stuff. A lot of new ghe fucking set up all our fancy stuff. Just for fun, though. I mean, if we get worse at core than this, we're going downhill, girl. I mean, yeah. The budget isn't that friendly. Well, and not only that, it's just for fun. I mean for you. I'm trying to retire on this shit for one day. Oh boy.
