https://acontagioussmile.sellfy.store/Ever wondered how you’d navigate life after a traumatic medical experience? Join us as we share an emotional journey, from the harrowing loss of an arm due to medical malpractice to the inspiring resilience needed to adapt and thrive. Our candid discussion reveals the raw, personal battles and the triumphs that come from learning to perform complex medical procedures with one hand. Along the way, we also touch on the determination it takes to overcome systemic failures in healthcare, and the indomitable spirit that drives us forward.

But that's not all—family dynamics add another layer of complexity to our story. We openly discuss the pain and struggle of feeling like the black sheep, the heartbreak of witnessing neglect within our closest circles, and the internal conflict that arises when a strained relationship faces a medical crisis. Despite the heavy topics, we sprinkle in our signature humor and light-hearted moments, like our playful banter and a quirky endorsement of "Herb Poopwalk." Don't miss this blend of heartfelt reflection and laughter that makes "A Contagious Smell Unstoppable" a unique listening experience.

Speaker 1:

Good evening. Welcome to another episode of A Contagious Smell Unstoppable. I'm Victoria and my sweet, loving husband is over there in the corner. Howdy y'all? Hi, hi, babe. So he just popped his cherry, if you will, and uh, seriously, what Can't be saying that? Why you don't even remember what decade it was you popped your cherry. I just woke up, surprise, surprise to our audience members. So I have to tell you we have been getting some fantastic, fantastic comments about our podcast and I thank you enough for that.

Speaker 1:

Go on Victoria Curie author page on Facebook and just let us know what you're thinking. I have to say we've had some amazing comments. I want to thank everybody, but I have to say one in particular. I love giving my husband crap. I just think it's fantastic when it comes to this because, as you all know, he whines like a little bitch baby about how horrible he is at podcasting and how he doesn't like it. So I've had multiple, multiple people come on talk about how much they love the camaraderie and the chemistry and the laughs and yada yada, yada between us.

Speaker 1:

Well, somebody put out there today and I'm going to keep their name confidential that they hope that you and I get on the Series XM circuit and get on the Series XM list. I guess, because you and I are a riot together and their actual words were the two of you together are really slapping, hilarious.

Speaker 2:

It's all you woman.

Speaker 1:

It's not all me, it is all you I couldn't imitate Redneck if I tried.

Speaker 2:

You just said today, Today.

Speaker 1:

I didn't talk a lot later, but then when I talk like this, my husband will say what are you going to say? I'll do the whole show that way.

Speaker 2:

No, come down south.

Speaker 1:

No, that's not what you say.

Speaker 2:

That's what I say.

Speaker 1:

We're keeping it PG, since when you can't? I already talked about popping your chair.

Speaker 2:

Well, maybe these youngins don't know what that means.

Speaker 1:

They're the ones teaching us stuff. The youngins no, yeah Do you know that kids in elementary school now are having sex.

Speaker 2:

Along what In their cat litter box? Yeah.

Speaker 1:

What in their cat?

Speaker 2:

litter box yeah, yeah, but they are.

Speaker 1:

They are having STDs. They are. There's your cat in the driveway, by the way, squirrel. Hey, sorry See, he can't do two things at one time. I really can't. So we had a really unusually productive day. More than normal why is that babe? Than normal.

Speaker 2:

Why is that, babe? Because you finally released your prequel to your first book. Your first book is called who Kicked First by Victoria Curie, and the prequel is called Nart. Nart, who's there and it went live today and it. I have seen multiple, multiple gray hairs sprout up instantly from my wife over the past two weeks that she's been fooling around with this dang thing trying to get the book published out there. If any of y'all self-published you know what she's talking about yes, the average night on our long three-day weekend.

Speaker 1:

Well, I don't get a weekend because I work seven days a week. I'm like my husband, but I was up until three, sometimes four, in the morning, trying to get this, get it going, right back at it after a couple of hours of a nap. Um, because we're celebrating the release of this for so many reasons. You know, being the black sheep is its own prison sentence in its own way, because you are outcasted and unloved. It's like being in a room full of people you know and you see the love everywhere, but none of it's directed to you. Or another way to look at it is being an asthmatic in a smoking room with no windows and no door and you're literally gasping for air.

Speaker 1:

A little pun there for Dana. But it's horrific growing up as the black sheep because you're always put to fault for everything you didn't do. You're never good enough with anything you do accomplish, and your parents only want you around when they need you for something. That's literally the only time that they feel the need to call on you, and my husband has known my bios for a quarter of a century. That's a different way to say it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but I didn't. To be honest, I didn't technically know them.

Speaker 1:

Well, you knew of them.

Speaker 2:

I met them. Okay, okay. That didn't technically know them. I met them. That's different from knowing them. When you know what's behind closed doors, it's different from what you see, where people just throw empty boxes out on the curb to impress everyone else. It's just empty boxes.

Speaker 1:

What's behind closed doors is a little bit different and what did you learn about behind closed doors?

Speaker 2:

yeah, they're a piece of shit. Is that pg force?

Speaker 1:

sure, yeah you know I've always said if you want to hate on me, that's one thing, but, babe, I've always had such a strong stance. You don't hate on me, that's one thing, but, babe, I've always had such a strong stance, you don't hate on my kid, like that is just not an exception, I'm sorry whose kid Mine?

Speaker 2:

Whose kid Mine? That's my daughter and younger.

Speaker 1:

Anyway.

Speaker 2:

Don't make me get her.

Speaker 1:

What sounds like it's bubbling.

Speaker 2:

Listen, it's your dog down there licking his paw.

Speaker 1:

No, it's your dog down there. Look at this paw. No, it's not. That's not so he's right here anyway. So I I cannot grasp how somebody who's supposed to be a grandparent can want nothing to do with their grandchild. I just I can't wrap my head around that. It's just like you know, my bio parents said I wanted nothing to do with my grandparents when I was growing up, but I mean the day you met me quarter of a century ago. Like I've always talked about my grandparents, I've always held them like the highest regard ever. Um, but for my biological parents to literally, for instance, he would go around my bio dad would go around tell everybody he doesn't appreciate that faith would give him the finger.

Speaker 1:

He taught her the finger, but he forgets to put that story out there. He forgets to tell that part of it and it's all about making him look better and not taking accountability for their actions. And that is a very hard pill to swallow. But you know, as all of you know, or if you're just tuning in with us for the first time, we welcome you. We almost lost Faith a lot of times over the holidays. She was in ICU beyond critical condition. She had dozens of surgeries.

Speaker 1:

Some were at bedside because she was too critical to even move to the OR and we were at the point where the doctors even told us that they would keep her comfortable and just let nature take its course, and I don't think my husband's ever seen that man um and found out my bio. Parents knew about this and never even reached out. Not a text not a phone call not a anything you know, and that's unforgivable. I mean, do you agree or are you just thinking?

Speaker 2:

Did my mom reach out? No, she called and said I called fake. No, so same story, you know. She called and said come on, faith. Yeah, so same story. Your brothers didn't need two different parents, family members those of y'all out there who have family members like this, you know what we're talking about. Come on our show. Yeah, let us know. But yeah, um, faith danced with the reaper more than once, more than Let us know, but yeah, faith danced with the Reaper More than once, more than once, thank God, she led that dance. And when that little SOB doctor told me to call a priest yeah, that's when my blood pressure got up. She's got 12 hours. What he said she may have 12 hours. You need to go ahead and call a priest.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

That's just something you never tell a dad or mom.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's not just that. When I met him, you weren't up there yet. And when I met him, you know, I asked him is this life threatening? And he said I don't get out of bed if it isn't. And that is not something that you say to a parent. I don't care, you just don't. You know you don't. And he was as rude as they come, you know, you don't look at.

Speaker 1:

And later on, during the admission, I did say to him you, you need to look at her like a person, not a case. You need to look at her like, you know, she's an actual, living, beautiful child. And when he would say, do you have any questions, I would ask fake, do you have questions? First, and he'd be like no, I asked you no, no, no, no, no. She has a voice and you're going to hear it. You're going to hear what you have to say and you know what. He didn, ran and didn't tell us, and it's not our story, so I'm not going to put that out there. But he did a massive, massive thing to faith without telling us and never even came and talked to us after this and, to be honest, they didn't even gather up, they were at bedside and just said you guys have to go out of the room, and they didn't even wash their hands.

Speaker 1:

Stare look, nothing, I saw them put gloves on, but they didn't gown up or anything else, but they had just been coming out of all the other kids room and we were in the ICU and I did pitch holy hell about it. But you know, nowadays people get away with cutting your arm off. Just ask me. I'm happy to tell you. Is it or is it not true?

Speaker 2:

That you have your arm cut off.

Speaker 1:

My arm got cut off and the doctor got away with it. Yes, and that's bullshit. I'm sorry. I'm not somebody who was like I got a paper cut so you owe me $10 million. I'm not doing that and I'm not one of these people who sue everybody for whatever, but if you've done something wrong, seriously, I lost my arm.

Speaker 1:

I had a master's in psychology. Like you're gonna turn around and tell me that I have no case because of certain reasons and the doctor gets away with it. Are you kidding me? Like I don't even know how they sleep at night? I just don't. And the first thing I would do is I would have reached out and said can I get you the proper prosthetic, prosthetic that you need or want? You know what can I do? Can I make this? You know you'll never be made right. Right, but the fact that people will see, oh, that's why they sign that lid. You know when I went into the amputation my surgeon signed that arm.

Speaker 1:

And I was like what are you doing? And he was like so we know which one to do it. And I said, are you kidding? Like that's a little bothering. And I already had like 16 other surgeries with him trying to save it and he was like you'd be surprised there have been people who go in for an amputation.

Speaker 1:

Oh, my God, and they come out with the wrong one amputated and then they have to go back and take the other one that needed the amputation. So they look both and yet, yet you can't come out with compensation for it.

Speaker 1:

I mean, you know, we have a beautiful, amazing young lady who needs our help and care. And it took both of us and you know I'm not, my husband can tell you it was very frustrating because when we were getting ready to discharge, she went home with a central line and I'm not going to go into too many specifics, right, but she was on TPN and lipids and everything had to be changed around the clock and then at one point she had four additional surgical drains hanging out of her. We're not even going to talk about the scarring that she endured. I think they're awesome, I think they are wicked, badass scars. But you know, and the protocol that was necessary.

Speaker 1:

I am one of these meticulous moms that everything has to be done to the teeth. Everything has wash your hands in between, sterilize in between. All the products have to be cleaned, every area has to be cleaned. You know, I mean it is no joke, but because I am that meticulous, she never had a infection around any stoma or you know anything like that, because I'm so meticulous with her care and that's. You know, it's a lot to do it. I wouldn't say work, because to do anything for our daughter is not work. It's the love you give your child, right.

Speaker 1:

So when they brought in a specialist to teach us, they brought in this table and they wrote stupid letters all over it and we had to learn how to do everything, from the heparin to changing everything and the dressing and not pulling the stitches and this and that and the other. And I looked at my husband with such defeat because I'm used to doing emergent changes. I'm used to doing emergent changes and changes and you know all of these medieval distractions, you know turns and twists and stuff. And I looked at my husband and I literally felt like I had got kicked in the throat because I looked out at that glove and thought how the hell am going to put that on, how am I going to get that glove on?

Speaker 2:

my one hand. So audience, how did she do it? Did I help her put on the glove or did she learn how to put on a glove? What do y'all think this stubborn ass redheaded woman sitting before me with her beautiful green eyes, what do y'all think she did? She learned how to put it on. She learned how to tie her shoe one-handed.

Speaker 1:

So yes, and everybody's like where's your prosthetic? My prosthetic is cool, it was tattooed. It's in the very top of the closet and it's collecting where it is because I can't wear it. It's so heavy and it's heavy and I have a titanium shore that was replaced. So my husband is nice and sweet, as he was trying to be. He's like babe, come here, let me put the glove on and I'm like no.

Speaker 1:

I'll get it. And he was like, babe, let me come here. No, I'll get it, I'll find a way I will get it. And he was trying so hard to help with my frustration and I remember I walked over to the sink and I was like I'm gonna get this, like I'm gonna get this on and the thing is is that the glove has to remain sterile so you can't put it down and put your hand in or anything like that.

Speaker 1:

I was like I'm gonna this, and then you have to learn how to open a completely sealed, wrapped you know flush that is wrapped in plastic. How do you open that, take the twist top off and administer it without you know?

Speaker 2:

the applicators that went on there and you know all the sterile little, oh, those little green things, the scrubbies, yeah yeah, you got to peel off the full on that.

Speaker 1:

What the full and you literally have to hold on. So I used to teach um medical training and I have been actually took that class too, and I took the wrapped syringe that is used for a flush and I, literally, I was just taking that class because you know because what you needed the in-service hours uh, that definitely was in service.

Speaker 2:

You're not right, you're not?

Speaker 1:

right, I thought you were keeping this pg. It is pg anyway. So I took the saran wrapped um sealed flush and I slammed it down on my leg and my husband looked at me like what are you doing? And I said, guess what? I got it open because I pushed it from the other side, so I get the syringe out and then I twist the top off and get it up there and then I can flush her. Well, another thing we had to do is we had the vials of medicine that we had to mix into. For TPN and lipids, the vitamins yes, and in order to go home, we both had to be into. For tpn and lipids, the vitamins yes, and um we, in order to go home we both had to be able to do it, so I have vials and I

Speaker 1:

have an actual syringe of the needle and I'm gonna be able to pull it. You know you can't have air in there because you can get an air embolism. So I'm sitting there and I'm like so frustrated and I was like I'm going to get this. And when you have someone that you love that is laying there, depending on you, I don't care who they are, you know you will do whatever it takes to keep them where they need to be. I mean same thing If my husband lost both his arms and his legs, I would still love him unconditionally and take care of him.

Speaker 1:

Just like I try to do now, and that wouldn't matter to me, it wouldn't, I would still marry you every year.

Speaker 2:

Okay, number one, you don't try to take care of me, you do. Thank you, number two.

Speaker 1:

More importantly, you do marry me every year, I said I still would marry you every year.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and we do. We get remarried every year.

Speaker 1:

Yes. So I can't fathom how you could know that this beautiful, vivacious, full of tenacity girl who has done everything to help other people since she was four years old.

Speaker 2:

Anything for herself.

Speaker 1:

She never wants anything for herself.

Speaker 2:

Maybe some music.

Speaker 1:

She does not. She needs to get on that too, anyway. So she literally never asks for anything from anybody and every year she raises toys, toys. She averaged about 400 toys a year that she raised and she would never want a single one of them, never, and she would go and and distribute them out. She wants to be a voice for others who can't speak up for themselves, and she is just the biggest gift she really really is.

Speaker 1:

And to know that she is laying in a hospital bed with uncertainty of tomorrow and you can't even Pick up the phone, text nothing, and the answer for that from them will be I didn't have Victoria's number, they had my husband's. And here's the worst part. Here's where it gets even worse. My husband has the unlucky privilege of running in to him on multiple occasions and he has run into him. He's run into the bio and he didn't even get acknowledged. They didn't even run into him. He's run into the biome and he didn't even get acknowledged. They didn't even speak to him. They didn't say oh my God, you know how is faith. You know and my husband's known me for 25 years and you have no problem correcting if I'm wrong If they had reached out and said you know we're horrible assholes, not that that would ever happen.

Speaker 1:

Can we see her? I absolutely out and said you know we're horrible assholes, not that that would ever happen. Can we see her? I absolutely would have said okay, and now I can't promise you that Faith wouldn't have ripped her head off because she would have.

Speaker 2:

That.

Speaker 1:

I would have reported, but would I not? Have said okay.

Speaker 2:

Yes, you would have.

Speaker 1:

Right would have right. And what another kicker is is that we actually ran into them not too long after all of this, and we saw my bio mom in her vehicle and she was parked in the wrong direction. She was parked illegally and I had nowhere else to go, and so she was staring at us and, of course, faith is in the back. So you let me in, or let me in, or I'll lock the door and I'm like no, and then I, you know I was like this is. This is a message sent to you to see who's the bigger person. Right, right, here is my biological mother, supposedly, as my biological father would say, dna pending who birthed me, sees me there, has not seen me since amputation, hasn't seen my loss of limb. More importantly, has not seen Faith. Knows she's in the backseat and won't even look at me.

Speaker 2:

We're not talking a couple weeks, a couple months, we're talking a couple years.

Speaker 1:

Oh, we haven't seen her in years, yeah, and so not a word. So I see her looking all around in her mirrors trying to find her husband. He comes out and he gets into another vehicle and as they pass us, they have no choice. You literally would have thought of Beetlejuice, because they turn their head in the complete opposite direction both of them, so that neither one of them would have to look our way. And with that it is just. I told Faith, I was like that's the irony right there, because you are the bigger person, you would have thought that they would have said can we just say see her? We're not asking for reconciliation, we're not asking for whatever we're, we just want to, you know, see that she's okay, right, like that's. You know and nothing. When I heard the rumor, that my bio dad had covid immediately.

Speaker 1:

I'm like what can I?

Speaker 3:

do. How do I?

Speaker 1:

help. He wasn't reaching out for me, he didn't want anything to do with me, you know, because I wasn't around for him to use as a scapegoat anymore. I wasn't his excuse carrier anymore. But they would try to say I'm like the complete opposite of how everybody knows that I am and I don't think I'm any different on air than I am off, do you?

Speaker 2:

you're amazing oh, and I didn't even pay him to say that no, I'm serious so my wife can get a little long winded there. I'm very nice. Just ask me, y'all go on Amazon and pick up Herb Poopwalk. I'm very nice, just ask me. Y'all go on Amazon and pick up her food book. To food kick first. Her new book is titled.

Speaker 3:

Speaker 1:

And that is just an amazing feeling to be able to do my husband is yawning again, as always.

Speaker 2:

I'm tired. You've been up for four minutes so I took a load now when I came home.

Speaker 1:

Can I just tell the audience that one day this weekend he woke up at 4 pm. The next day he woke up at 5 pm. Don't say a word because you've got nothing to say, Nothing, Nothing.

Speaker 2:

My bucket has holes in it. Something has holes in it.

Speaker 1:

It doesn't hold water.

Speaker 3:

No.

Speaker 2:

I'm entitled to my old man nap.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's singular, not plural.

Speaker 2:

Naps. You mentioned several days there.

Speaker 1:

But then that's two and napping is at 18 hours. That's like a small, like you know, going into hibernation. It's however long my body needs. That's going into hibernation, what about?

Speaker 2:

what my body needs, that's going into hibernation. Well, I'm a bear. Well, that's true.

Speaker 1:

What about what my body needs?

Speaker 2:

Oh, we can take care of that tonight.

Speaker 1:

Did you say darling, darling, darling, like alfalfa? Oh, I love alfalfa Darling.

Speaker 2:

Darling.

Speaker 1:

Oh my.

Speaker 2:

Are you serious? What you don't have, people just bust out laughing. For that I love that you're welcome.

Speaker 1:

Well, I go to bed now. Let me tell you see, my husband does not appreciate this. I go to bed when he does, but I work, I stay in there and I keep working and I have this little tiny light and I get my glasses on and I'm working and you know, coming up with different uh, media things and content things like that, and I stay up to like 1, 1, 30 sometimes two every single morning, right, and then we get notices whenever anybody comes near the property, around the property, on on the property, whatever, because the whole thing is recorded.

Speaker 1:

So our phones light up and then the notifications in the house light up, so we hear it and then I check it.

Speaker 2:

Is there a point?

Speaker 1:

I'm getting to it and they'll say I'm wrong. So then the sweet puppies, at like between 345 and 415, start waking us to let us know it's time to go Peas and poos outside. And so what do I do? I go downstairs and take them out so that my husband can continue hibernating and I stay up with them so that he may continue to sleep. Now, that's love and dedication. And then he gets up like five and then he plays video games until he leaves. And then he comes home and we have dinner and then he goes and takes a nap and I'm still up, working. When he leaves, I'm in a seat, working, and when he gets home, I'm in the same seat, working, working. And when he gets home, I'm in the same seat, working. And during that time, you know, everything in the home is taken care of, the dog is taken care of, our child is educated. You know, work, work, work, work. And then I get up in the middle of the night. Does he appreciate it?

Speaker 1:

no, no what do you?

Speaker 2:

have to say for yourself did I not come down this morning and snuggle? You on the couch For about four seconds. Well, my back was hurting.

Speaker 1:

Have we even finished? Our movie that we started.

Speaker 2:

Dang, we got to finish that movie.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I forgot the name of it. I figured I was just going to ask you the name of it.

Speaker 2:

You forgot to. No, I know what is it.

Speaker 3:

It's Mark.

Speaker 1:

Wahlberg, the union, the union. And Halle Berry, who is. I'm sorry If you've never seen this woman in person. She's stunning. She is a phenomenally gorgeous, beautiful woman and as nice as can be. I met her in 93, 92, when she was married to baseball's.

Speaker 1:

David Justice said no, whatever, he was a not so nice guy and he had all these women around him and she came up and he was so rude and disrespectful to her and she was so nice. She was just the sweetest thing. She's tiny, she's like 4'10", 4'11". Yeah, and she's actually the sweetest thing. She's tiny, she's like 4 foot 10, 4, 11. Yeah, and she's actually a diabetic. But she is gorgeous and I am obviously straight. I have no issue with whoever you like it's fine but you know, you still see an attractive person.

Speaker 1:

You're still going to say that's an attractive person, right? Hallie berry's gorgeous and the films do not give her justice. That's all I'm going to say. She's beautiful. But then you have Marky Mark in this film, who is Donnie Longhorn's brother, who you know. He just finished filming Blue Bloods and he marries his wife every year, Jenny McCarthy.

Speaker 2:

Awesome yes.

Speaker 3:

What else do you have to say before you fall? Asleep how do you do that?

Speaker 1:

I'm going to take a video of you falling asleep and putting it all over social media why? Because there is not a man out there that can fall asleep before the end of the count of five. And you do it every single. You know what? See, I do that.

Speaker 2:

My husband got me to pull up his little quirky thing where I'll talk about something and just be like Don't talk about my quirky thing, like that.

Speaker 1:

See, I can do that because I just noticed and he is a shit creep I bought him a very cute reindeer deer dude and he's wearing glasses and he's got my Mickey Mouse in his antlers. And you ruined Mickey Mouse. Not enough, you ruined Steamboat Willie.

Speaker 2:

Steamboat Willie.

Speaker 1:

Don't go any further.

Speaker 2:

All they got to do is YouTube it.

Speaker 1:

That is horrific and scarring to children. I can't believe.

Speaker 2:

You think there's children on the list in our podcast right now.

Speaker 1:

But I think that's what he says to me. He knows I'm a huge.

Speaker 2:

Mickey.

Speaker 1:

Mouse fan right. Always been Mickey Mouse fan. Love Mickey Mouse, hate Minnie she's a rat. So he comes and says I got a video for you to see Mickey Mouse. All I'm going to say is the term Swiss cheese. That's it, that's it, that's it, that's it. I was scarred for life. That is horrific.

Speaker 2:

I can't believe you did that but that's okay, because when our niece was here, faith's best friend.

Speaker 1:

They have covered their house, we've covered our house with stickers that says for rectal use. Only that was pharmaceutical stickers, because you butt your way out of your colonoscopy again. But it's coming's, coming, literally. Oh yeah, you have a doctor's appointment.

Speaker 2:

How many puns did you just use there? Like six, you have a doctor's appointment this week Bend over and say ah. In our defense.

Speaker 1:

I can't wait.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

I will slam this shut.

Speaker 2:

Go ahead. You know how hard we work. Oh my God, no, no, you, let me have my five minutes. And I'm holding up four fingers, far-ass working men out there in the sun and the heat all day, wearing boots, getting chased, getting chased, getting chafed, getting chafed.

Speaker 1:

Yes, this conversation's chafing.

Speaker 2:

Getting chafed. We come home, we're tarred.

Speaker 1:

I welcome you home with a beer in hand most times.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

You're an ass.

Speaker 2:

And if I need 10 minutes.

Speaker 1:

But that's 10 minutes, not 72 minutes or 264 minutes.

Speaker 2:

And then when it's time for bed, it's time to go to sleep. Who's texting you, nanya? It's my daughter.

Speaker 1:

No, it's my daughter.

Speaker 2:

She's probably hungry. That's not playtime, that's serious time. You put your head on your pillar on your what on your pillar and lights out, you shut off all it's not lights out.

Speaker 1:

When your head's before it even hits the pillar, you're already snoozing and then you wake up and say I just fell asleep. No, it's been an hour. No, I was dreaming hour's nothing. I screamed, with nuts and bolts in it, and it was brought to me by the Candyland and the Oompa Loompas getting off a unicorn that was getting on board of an alien charship. That's what you were telling me.

Speaker 2:

I can't want to dream, but that's our superpower we can go to sleep quickly.

Speaker 3:

Men are out working.

Speaker 1:

It's okay for him to come home, eat and take a nap. And he says it's okay to take 10 minutes. I said 10 minutes isn't 72 minutes, 10 minutes isn. I said 10 minutes isn't 72 minutes, 10 minutes isn't 264 minutes. I wouldn't.
