She just said that she always just wanted to be an example for her children and I'm like you know there's a lot of parents that don't think that way. They think they put a roof over your head food in your belly clothes on your back. That's it They don't have to be an example and I'm like you you chose to be an example so that's a that's not a you Know. We had a lot of friends who had parents who did who were not an example.

J. Aundrea
Um.

06:15.60
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

06:28.47
J. Aundrea

06:29.90
Bruce Anthony
And I was like oh okay, yeah.

06:38.84
Bruce Anthony
And.

06:45.96
J. Aundrea
And the teacher pulled me aside and she's like you know I just I think maybe this class is too advanced for you. She really shouldn't have said that to me because with barely any additional effort I got to see for the I mean I got an a for the Fourth quarter.

06:46.14
Bruce Anthony
It's.

06:50.49
Bruce Anthony
A a.

07:05.20

07:10.71
Bruce Anthony
Act.

07:20.67
Bruce Anthony
E.

07:24.51
J. Aundrea
And they were like yeah that sounds about right? Ah, don't tell me I don't belong in this class I belong with this guy. You know how how much effort you have to put in to get a perfect 70 for three quarters ah

07:26.66
Bruce Anthony
You ever write.

07:39.27
Bruce Anthony
A.

07:41.89
J. Aundrea
Have to intentionally get questions wrong. So that I have a perfect c for three quarters I knew what I was doing I knew that middle school doesn't matter in the rest of your life.

07:44.44
Bruce Anthony
And.

07:53.89
Bruce Anthony
That really don't say that to the kids out there but it don't matter. You're not supposed to be right.

J. Aundrea
Hey, if there's kids listening to the show. First of all, you're not supposed to be but ah if there are middle school doesn't matter.

08:07.41
Bruce Anthony
But that's like that did you you probably didn't watch a documentary the last dance but I know that you've seen the memes where Michael was like and then I took that personally so that's us like we.

08:15.44
J. Aundrea
I definitely saw the SAndL sketch

08:21.94
Bruce Anthony
Yes, and so but Thatsnel sketch wasn't that far fetch I mean obviously the histr onics of losing the pants and everything but that wasn't that far fetched from the actual documentary. So that's us challenge us about something and then that's when we take it Personally my.

J. Aundrea
No, um, yes yeah yeah.

08:39.20
Bruce Anthony
My closest friend swears up and down I'm not that good in basketball. He's just like you're not as good as basketball as you say and that's because when I got to him I was going through the motions either I wasn't going to Saturday practice I did not go to Saturday morning practices at all I would go I would go through the morning and go through the motions and practices all the time.

08:53.78
J. Aundrea

14:50.89
Bruce Anthony

15:00.36
J. Aundrea
No I Never do mean what the point what is the what else is the point of this podcast of not to go on and want about ourselves.

15:09.67
Bruce Anthony
The podcast is to give our perspectives on different stuff and our perspectives can't always be about ourself even though people like it people the people enjoy when we talk about ourselves I don't know why that I I don't know why? Well I I will say we're not regular because I.

15:14.41
J. Aundrea
Oh I Really don't I don't We're just two regular schmucks.

15:29.37
Bruce Anthony
Some of ah people out there I will say the general population is not funny and damn sure not smart generally speaking So we are above average in both of those categories. That's the reason why people listen to us and watch us. It's because we're above average are we extraordinary I don't know yet.

15:35.47
J. Aundrea
Yeah, definitely matter. Yeah.

15:43.36
J. Aundrea
Um, okay.

15:47.66
J. Aundrea
Maybe yeah yeah yeah.

15:48.80
Bruce Anthony
Maybe maybe but we're definitely above average. We're trending at a at a B It's as far as smart intelligence and humor because some of these people out here. Real corny and dumb.

16:16.66
Bruce Anthony
Okay, let's get to ah serious slash funny topics and that's that's my man Ken Paxton Ken Paxton is a republican attorney attorney general in Texas he's been the attorney general since 2015 he's been under indictment.

16:25.41
J. Aundrea
M.

16:33.32
Bruce Anthony
For securities fraud since 2015 he's been under an Fbi vestigation for bribery and abuse of office since 2020 the bribery and abuse of office allegations stem from his relationship from with this guy called Nate Paul Nate Paul is a real estate developer.

16:42.30
J. Aundrea
M.

16:52.43
Bruce Anthony
And a political donor who is also under federalable Fbi investigation for fraud and money laundry Paxton he's actually accused of using his office to benefit Paul in a variety of ways such as interveing an in legal dispute. Yeah, the attorney general of taxes.

16:52.79
J. Aundrea
Um.

16:55.21
J. Aundrea
Oh oh.

17:07.20
J. Aundrea
M.

17:11.99
Bruce Anthony
Intervene on behalf of this man who's a political donor probably giving him a lot of money on any legal dispute that he had right? He ordered investigations into Paul's enemies that means he was his personal henchman think Michael Cohen for Trump right? The only problem is Michael Cohen was a personal attorney.

17:25.57
J. Aundrea
E.

17:31.53
Bruce Anthony
This guy is the attorney general of Texas he's elected the attorney general um and he's also intervened. Um no, he also hired an outside lawyer to oversee an investigation which is an improper authorization. Um.

17:32.78
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yes.

17:50.15
J. Aundrea
Um.

17:51.50
Bruce Anthony
Things got so bad for Paxton that 8 of his aides under the whistleblow whistleblower lawsuit went to the Fbi 2020 and reported them how did Paxton respond to that he fired him. He fired him all right? So all this stuff that he's been going on the congress in Texas which is a republican led super majority in Texas decide to impeach him so on in May last month

18:19.83
J. Aundrea
Oh.

18:28.66
Bruce Anthony
The house ah general investigation community revealed that it was investigating ah Paxton for a year long pattern of misconduct and questionable actions that include bribery dediliction of duty and obstruction of justice now these are like real offenses. The committee unveiled 20 articles of impeachment against Paxton.

18:41.90
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

18:48.70
Bruce Anthony
On may twenty fifth 2023 detailing various changes ah charges and evidence against him on the twenty seventh just two days later the Texas house voted overwhelmingly to impeach Paxton suspending him from office. Over the allegations the votes for 121 to 23 with 60 republicans joining all democrats in favor of impeachment now his impeachment moves to the Texas senate which by the way his wife is a senator in Texas so that's going to be interesting.

19:10.10
J. Aundrea
4

19:17.29
J. Aundrea
Yes.

19:20.81
Bruce Anthony
Where he's going to be on trial and the house members will be basically the lawyers or the prosecutors ah going against Paxton and they need 2 thirds of the senators to vote in order to expel him from office. But right now he's he's suspended from any of his office duties. His main man. Former president Trump came out and supported him with saying hey we got a this is this is a witch hunt keyw word here. Witch hunt paxton't even use that word same word that santos use is like everything's a weditch hunt right now. But that's what's going on and the crazy thing about it is.

19:44.18
J. Aundrea
Um, his yeah.

20:00.22
Bruce Anthony
The republicans was like Nah you got to go So that's what's.

20:01.53
J. Aundrea
Yeah, that that that's what I think it's I think it's a ah, a litmus test for like okay where is the line one. This is Texas and there Texas republicans I mean if you were going to test out. Where's the line as far as like impropriety and just crimes are concerned. Um where republicans will will say finally ok all right. This is a little this is a little much we got to. We got to say something we got to do something at this point.

20:30.49
Bruce Anthony
Um.

20:38.36
J. Aundrea
I mean this is a Trump backed republican who is so bad at crimes that even other republicans are like we don't love this but you got to go baby like it.

20:39.87
Bruce Anthony
A.

20:50.44
Bruce Anthony
Well well part of if I remember correctly and I don't have a right in front of me part of his bribery was he was going to use funds that needed to get approved by Congress So his actions was going to rope in.

21:03.85
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

21:08.46
Bruce Anthony
Some of those representatives and they was like oh hell no they was like look man hey look we don't mind you suing Biden over his policies because he's one of the main litigators on his his suing Biden soon Biden.

21:16.80
J. Aundrea
And I had.

21:23.61
Bruce Anthony
And that's another reason why he's saying youall kid took me out I'm suing Biden on Behalf of y'all. But even these republicans was like look we can't rock with you on this one and Trump couldn't I don't well I don't know if Trump can save him yet. We'll see in the senate herring. But there's I wonder if his wife going to recuse herself.

21:31.77
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah.

21:42.81
Bruce Anthony
Because how could she be impartial.

21:46.48
J. Aundrea
It's a it's a it's a definite conflict of interest. Yeah I think that she should she I to to date I Don't think she has recused herself but I would I mean that's a severe conflict of interest.

22:03.10
Bruce Anthony
Are.

22:03.76
J. Aundrea
But you got a husband who who ah 1 republican lawmaker said on the house floor that he called members and threatened them political consequences in their next election if they voted to impeach so if she's yes.

22:14.40
Bruce Anthony
Um, when they were on the floor boating he was calling them and be like yo I'm gonna get you if you do this to me.

22:22.53
J. Aundrea
Yeah, so it to me is not vet that far fetch that she would risk. Ah you know, just like the optics of impropriety. Well not really, it's It's definitely a conflict oftricies. Her husband. Ah, to participate in the vote I mean it seemed like they're just a scam couple then but.

22:42.95
Bruce Anthony

J. Aundrea
And and they were riding on their horses and stuff like that that that was intimidating.

29:22.29
Bruce Anthony
Ah, maybe in the early nineteen the late 1800 s and early nineteen hundred s but what's intimidating to me. Yeah, well, what's intimidating to me with the neo-nazis once you start a shaving your head and putting tattoos everywhere.

29:25.28
J. Aundrea
Yeah, but mean before before assault rifles. Yeah sure.

29:35.51
J. Aundrea
Let me tell you how much I don't like being around a bald white man and I don't care for sallopecia I don't like it.

29:43.13
Bruce Anthony
And the only the only ball white man that gets past is Stoneco Steve Austin that's and Koja koja.

29:49.20
J. Aundrea
That's literally the only one there's no, there's no others and even an even oh well yeah coach Jack but I got to see a lolly papa something go Jack yeah.

30:00.88
Bruce Anthony
Who wave man who had a lollip pop who was a boat. Okay, okay, Koja well now because um, what's his name. What's his name that was in a saturdayturn night fever and look who's talking and Greece John trevoter. But it.

30:11.65
J. Aundrea
But he'll put but he'll put a wig on. He'll put a wig on in the New York minute

30:17.65
Bruce Anthony
But he'll he's had some movies that he's done ballheaded a wit a goe and I'm just like na. Um.

30:22.46
J. Aundrea
I Don't know a bald Italian doesn't really doesn't know now have you a bold like Irishman or just like no because they do love saying n word. They love it.

30:30.80
Bruce Anthony
Hold on. Don't be giving italians pass and and my best is italian and I love I love yet yeah I I love italian people and italian culture. But also you know there was a situation in Bensonhurst in eighty s where they.

30:41.34
J. Aundrea
And.

30:47.87
Bruce Anthony
Killed a black kid just for being in the neighborhood so ring and just because the italian ball head. But Edward Norton is the reason why them skin head scared me to deathaf when he did the curb stop on my man. He said put your teeth on on the curve I'm like no you gonna have to you had to shoot me I ain't go put my teeth on the curveb.

30:48.51
J. Aundrea
No so.

31:04.79
J. Aundrea
Ah I mean but the American History X Just so annoying to me because it's always because it's always black people always got to come in and literally save your life before.

31:20.85
J. Aundrea
You will give us any kind of respect for our humanity like we literally have to come in and rescue you from your own people and look out for you at our own at an expense of our own selves.

31:24.18
Bruce Anthony
Well.

31:32.63
Bruce Anthony
Um, here.

31:40.55
J. Aundrea
Before you will give us any kind of respect and then it'll still be so half-hearted.

31:43.72
Bruce Anthony
Well I'd say I mean you always disagree on this but I say it is our responsibility to show people that the propaganda stereotypes sometimes are true.

31:56.67
J. Aundrea
There and.

32:01.22
Bruce Anthony
But are generally not true and and like you don't know these things unless you interact with these people like I didn't I don't know how many Italian people I knew growing up not a lot. The only Italian references I had were television and media everybody was the mafia That's not.

32:01.45
J. Aundrea
Yes.

32:07.12
J. Aundrea
Moon.

32:16.30
J. Aundrea
Oh.

32:20.99
Bruce Anthony
Italian American culture. Um, not at all. So but you wouldn't know that unless you interact with Italian Americans. So.

32:29.16
J. Aundrea
Yeah, so but again, that's not on them that's on the people who you need to reach out to that community to learn about that community if you realize that you have some sort of blind Spotter bias.

32:41.10
Bruce Anthony
Who who it's a blind spot So you don't realize that you have it until it's pointed out.

32:46.91
J. Aundrea
Yeah, but I just don't feel like the responsibilitys should be on the person right.

32:54.41
Bruce Anthony
The responsibilities on both people but you have to show them where you have to show people where their blind spot is you did it for me. You know when we talked about the the fifth year episode. You've been one the influences in my life that help with this evolution of me trying to be less and less misogynist.

33:11.78
J. Aundrea
So yeah.

33:14.61
Bruce Anthony
It's you and like my college friends I'm a shot y'all out by name Jen Gen doesn't talk to me anymore. But that's okay, Megan right? Um, then as I got older there was Jessica and then there's there's my bestie Ashley right? um.

33:21.30
J. Aundrea
Best yeah.

33:33.83
Bruce Anthony
And then it's my friend Alex now who like these women are constantly challenging my thinking and interpretation on things. What's it sucks.

33:42.48
J. Aundrea
Yeah, it's exhausting and let me tell you some and let me tell you some of the though. But you're my brother who I love if it's just a random racist on a street I'm not. Expending any energy on this person to try to change their mind. It's like the it's like the Bots that get into comments like I'm not expanding.

34:02.73
Bruce Anthony
Ah, ah, but those aren't but those aren't those are we have gone on a tangent we would talk about Ken Paxton and we have gone on a tangent but the bots the bots are different. Those are when we when we said there was russian influence.

34:10.81
J. Aundrea
Yeah, oh yeah.

34:19.76
J. Aundrea
The.

34:20.25
Bruce Anthony
I'm seeing it firsthand the outside influences these arent It's not it it. Some of it is absolutely real American people but a lot of this is outside influences because the things that they're saying are literally to try and make you angry. Ah, it's literally set to.

34:26.41
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah.

34:32.91
J. Aundrea
1

34:37.51
Bruce Anthony
Drive division and they're doing an excellent job at it but I would just say to comment on what you just said people don't know what they don't know so that person that is a racist if they've never had any interaction with other minorities and the only thing that they see is the propaganda stuff that they.

34:44.20
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, so.

34:56.10
Bruce Anthony
That's on television and in the news my decency can show them hey look you know that's all lies right? This is who we are take it for leave and I don't have to get into so long philosophical philosophical debate or conversation with them.

34:56.20
J. Aundrea
M.

35:13.88
Bruce Anthony
But I can genuinely just be if somebody comes up to me and they say hey I don't know much about the black Aspar What books can I read? Okay, you want to learn here's some books that you grew. Yeah, here's some books that you could read right? or if they're like I don't know much about black culture. What can I do.

35:13.95
J. Aundrea
Um.

35:21.48
J. Aundrea
I Will love to point you to some literature. Yeah.

35:32.39
Bruce Anthony
Here's some books here's some information go and digest this but a lot of stuff a lot of the stuff people aren't learning in school Hell we didn't learn about all the massacres that were going on in this country after the civil War towards black people I didn't learn about the tulsa Mas massacre until I took an African American studies course in.

35:43.90
J. Aundrea
Now.

35:51.50
Bruce Anthony
College and and when I was learning about it I was like no this isn't real. This didn't really happen na. no no I would have heard about this before? no it was real and there are way more cases out there but that was a long tangent Ken Paxton yo ass is going down.

36:07.76
J. Aundrea
All the way down down like that lazy eye.

36:24.26
Bruce Anthony
All right says let's get to some. It's something I found was interesting. There are always knew people had different type of phobias some of these phobias I'm not going to say weird I don't like calling things weird or different I'll say unique.

36:28.00
J. Aundrea
Move right? so.

36:40.22
J. Aundrea
No, they're unusual, they're they're uncommon but they're they're unique. Ah, and I think I think one article I read put them as irrational but I mean I think all phobias are.

36:43.94
Bruce Anthony
Unique. Yes.

36:57.74
J. Aundrea
Based in some so there's some sort of trauma or something there around the phobia. So I don't think any phobia is is wholly irrational. So I don't like that characterization any either. But yeah, unique.

37:01.19
Bruce Anthony
Okay, yeah.

37:14.78
J. Aundrea
Unique different. You sent me sent me some ah some interesting ones and then I look well the Iraqy Buty Ro Phobia I don't know how to pronounce that.

37:19.84
Bruce Anthony
Um, which one's interested you.

37:26.55
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, that's that that's the reason why I said what was interest. It's interesting to you because you know damn well I was gonna mess up that annunciation.

37:35.97
J. Aundrea
Yeah, um, and that's a fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth I think I think I mean where the heck does that come from.

37:38.48
Bruce Anthony
Are. Well so they say the causes. The exact causes are are unclear but experts believe they involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Some people.

37:49.19
J. Aundrea
You know. Well and I read something else. It said it is like a fear of choking or a you know a fear of some sticky in your mouth and I'm like okay that seems reasonable because peanut butter in your mouth you there.

37:58.92
Bruce Anthony
A.

38:11.75
J. Aundrea
Sometimes a little bit where you panic a little bit if he can touch I know I've had that experience a little too much peanut butter. You got get a glob of peanut butter. You be like ah you pan you panicck just a little bit.

38:12.36
Bruce Anthony
A.

38:20.12
Bruce Anthony
I.

38:26.75
Bruce Anthony
I I don't think I panic but these phoia is absolute. They say the symptoms and the symptoms they they say are ah physical and physiological and and and chest tightness difficulty breathing dizziness nausea that sounds to me like a panic attack.

38:36.28
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yes.

38:43.71
Bruce Anthony
Like these phobias cause panic attack and a lot of these phobias that are unique because there's a phobia that you're afraid it needs. Um I'm not going to be able to announciate to enunciate this one correctly. Ah genuine gen phobia. Genhobia ah is is the specific phobia that involves a irrational or excessive fear of knees or kneeling and I was like you got a fear knees are kneeling and then they say one of the causes is another thing of fear choking and I was like wait a minute hold up.

39:10.57
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

39:21.48
Bruce Anthony
Seems like a lot of these phobas come with a fear choke it and I don't know where this fear of choking comes from but I ain't never really had no fear a choking not really and I live by myself.

39:25.38
J. Aundrea
Ah.

39:32.14
J. Aundrea
No no, that's real when Liz Lemon was talking about when they said so what was it somebody said you know you're a single person living alone. The biggest fear is choking because.

39:47.76
Bruce Anthony
Liz Lemon is a character on 30 rock for those people that don't know.

39:50.20
J. Aundrea
Oh yes, sorry if you haven't seen at least 1 episode of 30 rock like where were you in the early two thousand s but mid 2000

39:57.68
Bruce Anthony
She's it's Tina Fey who I used to have a huge crush on and I had a crush on her because she's so funny. Yeah, yeah.

40:04.54
J. Aundrea
Yeah she's very funny, extremely funny. Ah, 1 of 1 of my favorite prior cast members on sml. But now that's a real fear. You got to learn how to throw yourself over that chair because there's nobody there to Pat Pat you on the back or Heimlick you you know you got to heimlich yourself. That's a real that a fear of choking especially being single I think that's a real thing and that's a real thing living by yourself. Yeah.

40:25.37
Bruce Anthony
Or not yeah or live by yourself or living by but ah I I just that I remember that episode and and then I thought to myself huh that is interesting because I do live with myself and that could happen but I still don't ever think about choking that's like not that's. Not in the back of my head like ooh I could choke and die like it's just that's not a thing for me.

40:48.38
J. Aundrea
I I do at well I have since when I say I've conquered my phobia. Um, yeah so I it's ah it's called. Ah.

40:53.96
Bruce Anthony
What what is the phobia. That's the reason why I brought this up so we could discuss our Homop phobias.

41:04.88
J. Aundrea
Cholerophobia and it is a fear of clowns. Um I do not not a fan. Ah no, he dressed up like a duck you just I was scared of the duck too. Well, there's a six foot duck

41:07.34
Bruce Anthony
Oh yeah, you don't like clowns when dad was a clown for that for your birthday that one time. Oh yeah, that's right, you scared of the duck though.

41:24.51
J. Aundrea
Coming towards me trying to hug me I think that's I think that's pretty rational.

41:25.23
Bruce Anthony
But but the fact of the matter is shout out to dad because your birthday is in august.

41:37.40
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

41:40.82
Bruce Anthony
Literally I think August is the hottest month of the year maybe July is the hottest month but it's the second hottest month of the year in Southern Virginia and he put on that duck cost to a day wait man. The dad had the ball ahead. He least had the top part of his head was bald.

41:45.15
J. Aundrea
August is pretty damn hot especially in Southern Virginia

41:56.15
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yes.

41:59.39
Bruce Anthony
Ah, so you know he was sweating he did that for your birthday. It was a whole birthday party being thrown for you So shout out for they had to jumping in the duck costume. He had to be like he'd be like it's me. It's.

42:07.70
J. Aundrea
He's no mom ended up pulling me out of the room. It was ah mom ended up pulling me out of the room and being like it's just your dad and I was like oh because I was in tears.

42:18.75
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, was it your fifth birthday.

42:21.11
J. Aundrea
And it was horrifying it was hard I'm five years old is my fifth birthday and is it was my fifth birthday and we had it at the actual ah it was at um, the preschool he came in. Yeah, it was my fifth birthday.

42:33.42
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, yeah I remember it being at the preschool. Okay.

42:39.53
J. Aundrea
And a six foot tall white duck comes waddling in the room to making a beeline toward me I don't know what's going on ok to this day I think he doesn't admit that it was him in the costume.

42:45.90
Bruce Anthony
May if not.

42:53.35
Bruce Anthony
Out. Yeah this this this is the same man is still said he wrestled Hawk Hogan in high school and I was just like that. No you didn't but but like no you didn't but okay, are.

42:57.56
J. Aundrea
He still says it was a co-worker.

43:07.23
J. Aundrea
Then cut to. We find a picture of it. But I do I have a fear of clowns and well I've I've been working on conquering that fear if a clown walked into the room right now would I scream Bloody murder. Yes.

43:15.64
Bruce Anthony
E.

43:21.81
Bruce Anthony
So you aint never going to watch it.

43:27.22
J. Aundrea
I did watch it finally as an adult. Um the old one I haven't watched the old one and the only reason I watched the old one is because it's is Tim Curry is playing Pennywise the clown and I just.

43:29.17
Bruce Anthony
With the old school one or the new one. Yeah I can remember. E.

43:42.13
J. Aundrea
Kept reminding myself this Tim Curry is Tim Curry is Tim Curry and so I was able to get through it and then by the time the penny wise becomes the giant spider. It's not scary anymore if you haven't seen it and I just spoilered it for you I don't know it's the the movie's like thirty years old I don't know what tell you.

44:01.59
Bruce Anthony
Ah, but that was I wouldn't be scared anything else except for that last part there but I don't have arachnophobia because I'm not scared of all spiders. It's just the big hairy ones.

44:01.77
J. Aundrea
Um.

44:05.11
J. Aundrea
The spider. Yeah yeah, yeah.

44:15.67
J. Aundrea
Yeah, they're not great. They're not great, but um, they say that you develop this because usually as a small child because you're just learning how people's faces should look and of course a clown.

44:27.46
Bruce Anthony
You.

44:31.43
J. Aundrea
Looks very different from other people so it could distort that distortion ah can cause chlorophobia. So that's.

44:39.55
Bruce Anthony
I Wonder does that have a direct correlation with eyesight as well because not everybody develops that so you had bad eyesight. So maybe that was distorted and it scared you because it's a talking blob of something coming at you.

44:48.64
J. Aundrea
That's true I had bad eyesight. Yeah.

44:55.86
J. Aundrea
Mo living.

44:58.69
Bruce Anthony
As opposed to what you normally see I Wonder if we need to do some case studies on that and I'm not.

45:01.44
J. Aundrea
Yeah, because I I remember the I remember the moment I was probably about 4 or 5 and we went to like the the carnival or the something was in town and we went and there was a clown making balloon animals and mom. Like you want one? go you know, ask him for one So I went up to him and you gotta understand I'm little and I'm looking up at this man and he's looking down at me you want Aoon like I'm sure it was much more.. Ah I'm sure it was not.. It's horrifying as I remember it I'm sure he was like you want a balloon like or I'm sure it was probably but in my mind what I saw was this horrible creature looking down at me. You want a balloon like and I just remember going. Oh no, just.

45:51.83
Bruce Anthony
Um.

45:58.13
J. Aundrea

46:14.80
J. Aundrea
You know you know I'm not ever gonna I won't ever show it. You won't ever know you won't ever know internally I'll be dying but you won't ever know. Externally.

46:25.40
Bruce Anthony
Yeah I don't know that I knew that growing up that you were afraid of clowns because I definitely would have exploited that. Um, ah yeah, well where you gonna get your hands on the spider that I'm actually afraid of.

46:29.19
J. Aundrea
Yeah, and then I would have thrown a spider at you. Yeah, but I would have found one I'm just letting you know and I don't have I don't have a fair spiders I would I would hold a tarantula and I would put a tarantula in your bed if you ever.

46:40.30
Bruce Anthony
All you would have did was those.

46:48.37
Bruce Anthony

46:55.35
J. Aundrea

46:59.80
J. Aundrea
Ah, nobody would know.

47:07.59
Bruce Anthony
Probably the size of my hand gigantic rubber spider It was a rubber black spider that was to mimic a triangula. It's the reason why I'm scared I'm that I'm afraidight of deaf of spiders and I don't know why Dad had this rubber spider you got to remember my dad's a kid.

47:16.20
J. Aundrea
Great. Yeah yeah. Yeah, yeah.

47:24.40
Bruce Anthony
Literally like he was still like he was a young man when I was five years old he was 26 or 27 he's a kid so he's tormenting me with this rubber spider but but he's trying to teach me not to be scared of it but by teaching me not to be scared of it.

47:26.24
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, um.

47:40.73
J. Aundrea

Bruce Anthony
Only made me more scared of it like 1 time he put it in my bed when I was asleep. It had one blue eye one red eye it was rubber it was missing some legs if you put that thing in front of me right now I would still be scared to death of it 1 time 1 time I remember going through my dad's dresser probably looking for some after shave.

47:51.45
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

48:00.80
Bruce Anthony
Because that was my cologne when I was 12 or thirteen years old and I pulled the dresser back and saw it I thought he had thrown it out I wanted to go pick it up and throw it in the trash but I was just so too scared of it it the shock and the fear that it put in my heart I hate Sidney and that's the reason why I got a fear.

48:09.90
J. Aundrea
And last.

48:19.52
Bruce Anthony
Um, tri answerless my dad gave me that fear you gave me a lot of positive things but you gave me my fear of big hairy spiders and it's the reason why I'll never go to Australia.

J. Aundrea
