Speaker 1One can go without Robin .
Speaker 3You shouldn't laugh . It's a nice politically incorrect joke . Uh , welcome to the podcast . I am laughing at that . It's funny . We should live in a world where you can tell jokes . I'm chubby you should .
Speaker 2You should have just ran with it . That's the funniest shit I've ever heard . You should have you die with it at this point once you've laughed , you just continue laughing .
Speaker 3Oh no , oh no , you can't stop . Brayden , how was your week ?
Speaker 2that was , I was just face to face with a raccoon Boy . That could fall right into these , but you want to try and make it worse , I was about 20 feet away from a raccoon . That's better In your attic , in my attic .
Speaker 3In my second story , attic . Now I had to give you fatherly advice .
Speaker 2You said you can't fire a weapon in your house .
Speaker 3That's what you said Two times on two separate occasions , Days apart . Braden has the idea . He asked me how far were your .22 shoot ?
Speaker 2No , I didn't . I said , how loud would it be ?
Speaker 1Real loud ? I said , no , those aren't real loud .
Speaker 3You can't shoot a gun at city limits Loud enough that someone can tell the neighbors are shooting a gun , so I was finally like I was trying to let him like work through things and then I got worried he was going to fire a weapon in that attic . So I'm like hey , buddy , you shouldn't be , you shouldn't be firing a gun in your house ever . So what I say ?
Speaker 2What'd I say After I'm going to chop some bitch up . Then you said something you want to come get our machete ? Nope , I had my own hatchet . I had my hatchet , I had my flashlight and I was like call me closer .
Speaker 6You know what he did he was going to fuck you up .
Speaker 2You know what that little bastard did ?
Speaker 6Brayden wasn't going to have a face off like the bitch I am . Hey , those things are you . I worried bitch , I don't have time .
Speaker 2I'm warm , I'm comfy , you can get fucked , yeah . And then alex , so I am saying some very colorful things when I am on this ladder , not yeah , it's unacceptable to say around you , let's just put that way level fives . I'm halfway in the attic , I'm halfway out of the the attic , and Alexis hears me going to town on this thing verbally .
Speaker 3I'm verbally assaulting this raccoon , I was afraid you might be sexually assaulting it , based on what you just said .
Speaker 2Well , that's my next option . But all I hear is the most innocent little voice downstairs say what did you say ? She thinks I'm talking to her . I say , baby , I got a raccoon right here I'm . We're in a staring contest and finally I , I swear to god , I look down to say it , I look up , gone . Oh no , he's not gone .
Speaker 2No , he went into ella's walls yeah , he's in there somewhere and then you know what alexis says to me , because I've been this up , I've been saying I'll chop it a little bit , I don't care . Alexis said you want me to go scare it out of there . And I was like no , I want you to let it stay where it's at , because I'm in no position to fight .
Speaker 3Now , the beauty of that is it can't get in the house .
Speaker 1So , you're okay ? No , now , there's a live trap up there now though .
Speaker 2I got a big live trap . I got a little live trap . What'd you put in the trap ? Chicken , raw chicken .
Speaker 4So I'm going to get it out tomorrow .
Speaker 2I'm gonna get it out tomorrow , and it was bad chicken . I have a question for you .
Speaker 3Once you go up there and find the raccoon in the cave , he's gonna bring it down .
Speaker 4I'm going to .
Speaker 2I'm going to bring it down . How are you going to get it down ? He's going to grab it and bring it down . I'm going to continue . I would take a fishing pole . I'm going to continue to verbally assault this raccoon Are we just going ? To let it die in the cage ?
Speaker 1No , because the chicken's bad , it's going to smell . I leave Monday .
Speaker 2Oh , that's true , and I'm going to very gingerly , pick it up and I'm gonna jump when it tries to fight you have no clue .
Speaker 3If it bites , it's gonna bite well , it's in .
Speaker 2It's in like a like a real deal trapping case .
Speaker 6So he won't be able to get out , no , but he'll be able to bite your fingies when they come in and scratch there's , it's got a handle .
Speaker 2So I'm going to shit my pants before everywhere and after .
Speaker 1Make sure you wear gloves , Thanks .
Speaker 6Five Nights at Freddy's .
Speaker 1Because they're big and in the cage they run .
Speaker 6Thank , you , fnaf , you know those pinching tools . They have the arm that folds down and you pull the trigger and it's good You're going to get you one of those .
Speaker 3It's going to have to be real strong . Getting down those attic stairs is not easy when you're by yourself , let alone a raccoon that says I hate you and I want to eat your face , just so you know , let me out of this cage .
Speaker 6How big was he ? Is he 30 pounds ? Is he 50 pounds ? This is what I saw .
Speaker 3This thing is walking in there and he's like , oh , this is good . Hey , oh the fuck , why'd that door close behind ? There's gonna be up here , I'm fucking stuck in here and then you're gonna stick your big stupid head out and he's gonna be like you fucking did this to me and I'm gonna eat . You wait until I get out of here , motherfucker .
Speaker 1So I I facetime , because when they go in their cage and they get stuck in there , they get ravenous and they they try to scratch themselves .
Speaker 2Yeah , so I get out of the cage I facetime caleb because he gave me this trap and this is , this is I see I go up in the attic after I clear , after I said how you getting it down after I seal off and the outside getting into my attic , I go up there , you see said raccoon , I go go downstairs , I get this trap all figured out . Those are hard to set up , mind you , I've never done it . So I ask Caleb , and he says Dezo , you got to shoot that thing . And then Jams from left field goes , he can't .
Speaker 2He's in the city lit , so I show him my hatchet and he just starts laughing . And then I go . I set this up like this right and I go you're hatch , it's like an emergency one . Yes , yes , yes so they're eating the cats so and then at the end of it , just like everyone has said , he goes how are you gonna get that thing down ?
Speaker 1and I said I'm gonna carry it .
Speaker 2He said now , when we get to that carrying point , it's gonna be a be a problem . They're eating the dogs , yeah .
Speaker 3Yeah , I cannot wait to hear this on next week's show , or two weeks from now , it's going to be , because it's going to be a great story .
Speaker 2There's a little one too .
Wildlife Encounters in the Home
Speaker 2And another story the other night , alexis and I are sleeping in our bed together . Other night we , alexis and I , are sleeping in our bed together and at five in the morning there was a murder in our attic . I'm talking , it starts .
Speaker 3I think there was a shitty like ex-wife raccoon up there and then there was another raccoon and they like met at the daycare .
Speaker 6They caught the news .
Speaker 3They met at the daycare and there was an incident .
Speaker 2So it starts and the crazy thing is if you , once you hear footsteps and once you realize like this , like what's available above you to move around in , you can tell exactly where they're at . This fight started on the other end of the house . It ended behind Alexis and I's bed in the wall , and it was something . You think there's just two . No , no , no , this was something little . I think a raccoon killed a squirrel .
Speaker 6Oh , that's going to smell nice in your walls .
Speaker 2I think a raccoon killed a squirrel because , dude , something died Like it was screaming .
Speaker 3You know it's funny . You say that because over the last it might have been a rat Our cameras outside . When we had that little worm snap over one night I had a possum in the front yard , a raccoon in the backyard and two cats backed by the . So now I know why our dogs wig out at night .
Speaker 6Yeah , because and they're not afraid to come up , especially .
Speaker 3Eddie with the possum up front . But that possum was just like wandering up like hey what's up ?
Speaker 6Possum's probably a nice place . You got Dude . I like the work you've done .
Speaker 3Yeah , you got any food in there for me .
Speaker 2Yeah , it's . But the cat dude , the cat that we have , bingo , b-i-n-g-o . He goes in the house and you know how like they talk about , like how animals can see spirits . Oh yeah , bingo can smell the vermin in our walls .
Speaker 3Of course , because he goes from our couch . He's a hunter .
Speaker 2He goes from our couch and he'll just stare right here , and then , as quick as he can , he'll go right over to our entertainment center and look up in the vent . You know , your grandmother one time lived in a trailer . Which one ? Oh , okay , Trailer .
Speaker 3I hear you Lived in a trailer , which , funny enough , but she had , I remember , going to her house and she didn't have the floor vents in .
Speaker 2She didn't have the registers in .
Speaker 3She didn't have the register covers in oh Christ , and I told her . I said Mom , you gotta put those in .
Speaker 2And she was like oh , we don't have one .
Speaker 3And one night her husband got up and tripped over what he thought was their cat and it was a possum in their house and there was a raccoon in there . Same night they had both scurried up in that house . You think you've got problems , not there .

Speaker 3Follow your heart and prioritize the well-being of others . Oh , you explore various options with a focus on long-term impact or you make quick , instinct driven decisions and adjust later . How many options did you explore ? It was a couple , wasn't it ? Remember that time you said you want to go first . I'm regretting that now .

Speaker 3I think you're exactly right on that one . I think that too . So which one do you think you think is dynamic , fast paced and full of challenges ?
Speaker 6Yeah , I need to , otherwise I get bored and then I start reconstructing how things need to be done .
Speaker 3You do that before you even fucking get there . I had to tell her on this job she got now I was like , hey , let's try something different on this job . You have a new job . Why don't you show up to this job and just do it the way they've been doing ?
Speaker 6it for years . They've been open for 30 years . Don't come in and change it .

Speaker 3In relationships , amanda , you value independence , freedom and mutual respect for individuality . No more tiktok , sorry . Honesty , loyalty and emotional depth , probably shared interests , intellectual stimulation , stimulation and open communication , or excitement , spontaneity , and a partner who encourages growth with his penis , bcnd that's for three different personalities um . I agree with you , christopher , dive in uh .
Speaker 6I think independence , freedom and mutual respect honesty loyalty and emotional depth .
Speaker 3I would probably agree with that last one . We're almost to the big reveal for you . I need a sprinkle of the other , though . Uh , your approach to learning new things is systematic , mastering one skill at a time , probably .
Speaker 4That could be it .
Speaker 3Relational , preferring to learn through collaboration and shared experiences .
Speaker 6No , fuck everybody else's experiences . You want to tell me how to learn it ? Fuck you .
Speaker 2I have a story for this right after her personality comes out . I will remember .
Speaker 3Conceptual , enjoying abstract ideas and exploring possibilities . No , and experimental learning best by doing and experimenting .
Speaker 6That could be .
Speaker 3I have to master a skip , so systematic mastering one at a time , or experimental learning and doing it and experimenting . Gotta be , d Gotta be .
Speaker 6I'm going to say A .
Speaker 3She's saying A because you push D a little too hard .
Speaker 6God I'm sorry , no , because I want to learn a new thing . Then I say , fuck that thing , I'm going to go on to the next one once I've learned each step .
Speaker 2While you're getting the results . You don't think you're a good partner , christopher . He's probably not Good for While you're getting those results , amanda , when this whole Call of Duty Thing came up with us playing , I text Amanda , because you weren't messaging Me back or something . And I say , hey , if I want to play , I just need your Gamer tag . I need to get To where we're friends . And she said , um , no , you need an Xbox right because you can't . And she came on .
Speaker 3It was this whole . Trust me , you're telling me what I love about her and will make me throw her off the peak of the house one day , is I will ask her a question . She'll drive from our driveway all the way around the world to pull in the other side of the driveway , instead of just telling me . I just need to put it in reverse here .
Speaker 2The crazy thing is I've played call of duty no less than 17 years , yeah , and I know exactly how to everything works and she has never she was telling me she was like no , no , you need to do it this way . And I was like , actually , why don't you just let me handle it ?
Speaker 6And it was like , what I said was aren't you getting an Xbox anyway ? Why don't we just do that ?
Speaker 2Well , and then I explained to you you can play it cross platform . And she was like but you need an Xbox . And I was like , it's all good . You may not have said that , but it was it was funny how you were trying to explain it to me Like I'm well-versed , all is good . I just want to play with you guys , that's all .

Speaker 1You had called Tracy , at least one of ours has to match Tracy and Angie .
Speaker 2I would have loved Angie . Where do you lay your head at night ? On a palla , I can promise everybody their two results are going to be poor All right , here we go .
Speaker 3I'll bang through this one real quick . When faced with a problem , I typically rely on my intuition . Take immediate action . That's me . I don't , I don't .
Speaker 2You're never going to find me a paralysis by analysis .
Speaker 3In social situations , I don't avoid small talk , I don't prefer one-on-one . I enjoy lively discussions and thrive on group interactions .

Speaker 3When faced with change . You carefully analyze and plan ? Nope , I don't carefully plan for anything . You have the Denny effect . That's right . In relationships you value independence , freedom and mutual respect , honesty , loyalty and emotional depth . That's it . And your approach to learning new things systematic mastering , one at a time Nope , experimental Learning best by doing and experimenting . And that says I am an action oriented adventure .

Speaker 2Any surprises , amanda's I am baffled , but I don't know that it comes out the same .
Speaker 3There's so much about these , because when you meet these two they are complete opposite of the spectrum .
Speaker 6But when you get to know but some of your traits are very close . You just pick the more extrovert way . I'm more introvert , but it's the same .
Speaker 3Yeah , you guys have the same DNA .
Speaker 1Well , you've at least shared some . What did you write ?
Speaker 3no one point or another you have . Well , you've at least shared some Dammit man , dammit no . One point or another you have . No , just let's get out of here .

Toilet Dilemma and Relationship Misunderstandings
Speaker 6insane like me . Welcome to Relationship Advice with Ams and Jams .
Speaker 1I see red , red , oh red .
Speaker 6Come to your head . Well , you asked for our advice . We just hope you're ready for brutal honesty .
Speaker 3And brutal it shall be . We just found out Christopher's been with the same girl since they were 14 and they're 37 . Now . Get married , weirdo , hey . To whatever works , whatever works . Why does this have to be ?
Speaker 6You pulled the trigger on getting married real early . How'd that work out ?
Speaker 3You got married twice , dear .
Speaker 1Anson Jams .
Speaker 3I have recently reached a breaking point with my husband over his late grandmother's stuffed toy . Excuse me , sorry , what he refuses to accept why I would find it offensive , and is insistent that it isn't offensive because his grandma cherished it and she wasn't racist . Oh shit .
Speaker 2No , oh yeah .
Speaker 3I don't know what this is . I don't believe that his grandma was . I don't believe that his grandma was racist . However , the soft toy is a gollywog .
Speaker 1I'm going to look it up . Somebody look that up .
Speaker 3I don't know what a gollywog G-O-L-L-I-W-O-G . Okay , I have explained why it is offensive to me as a person of mixed heritage , but he will not accept that that is racist as shit .
Speaker 2You burned that . Let's see a picture of it , that's it . I don't know .
Speaker 6Can you get it pulled , oh boy .
Speaker 2You got to get rid of that dude , oh boy .
Speaker 3That's what it is . Oh goodness gracious , I don't know about that gollywog .
Speaker 6Racist or not , that's creepy as hell .
Speaker 3That's Ch chucky , but black , yeah , that's that is a little strange .
Speaker 3I don't disagree , uh . However , this I have explained why it is offensive to me as a person of mixed heritage , but he will not accept that he is white . He insists he will display it proudly in his house because it belonged to his grandma . I have no problem with him having the soft toy , but I don't want it out for visitors to see . This is not the first time . We have had conversations like this where he refuses to see my point . Sometimes he will later , but not , but only after an argument . It feels like this is a last straw , quotation marks , uh type of disagreement and frankly it worries me . Ams and jams what do you think of this whole thing ?
Speaker 6so I agree . Christopher says it's a doll . I agree it's just a doll . I don't think to make it about race is the point . Um , how about ? It just makes you uncomfortable and it's creepy and you don't want it out in your house . Yeah , yeah , that that should be enough .
Speaker 1Why can't he keep it in his ?
Speaker 3man cave . Well , it's still going to be out . I mean , you want it in his garage .
Speaker 6Keep it in a box of grandma's things ? Are you going to bring it out at Thanksgiving ?
Speaker 3I would ? Oh shit , I would . If you remember correctly , I brought out grandma's ashes and started saying the most inappropriate , horrible things you could ever , you could ever hear . Remember that .
Speaker 2She would have said I think that with that doll hide it .
Speaker 4That goes in a if you want to , if you want to keep it for grandma's stuff .
Speaker 6That's cool . You get a box of grandma's things and you put it in the box .
Speaker 2Also she is of mixed heritage . I think this is just some white girl that says my , my 19th grandfather was black , so I'm offended .
Speaker 3There is a lot of that , I think that's sprinkled in .
Speaker 6I think using that to be offended is silly . How about it makes me uncomfortable ? I don't want it in my house . That needs to be enough .
Speaker 3I think today's day and age we have everybody wants to be some sort of victim , right , our day and age we have everybody wants to be some sort of victim .
Speaker 6yeah , right , yeah , and I are caller in , listener in , typer in , typer .
Speaker 3Well , it's like a caller but it's not calling correspondence , whatever it is uh , I just I think that you know grandma came from a different time . That wasn't considered . Well . Your grandmother grandma came from a different time . That wasn't considered Well . Your grandmother Grandma came from a different time has said some things that .
Speaker 6I had to say , hey , you can't say that , no more , you can't say that . And she didn't say it to be malicious .
Speaker 1You can't say that in front of people . It's a damn good thing . My grandma is not alive anymore .
Speaker 3Yeah because she said some shit , especially after 16 beers . But here's the thing about all of that . Right , I'm half hungarian . Goulash isn't racist . Christopher says um , I . I think we can't like forget that time . I think we have to not embrace it or celebrate it , but we have to understand it . We have to say , look , that was the time . We shouldn't be canceling people for something they said or did 30 years ago .
Speaker 6Yeah you know , let's be . This is what was the time on this .
Speaker 2At the same time , don't leave your husband over a dollar if he's got this thing in a showcase as a centerpiece on the kitchen table .
Speaker 3I understand your frustration if it's in a curio cabinet up against the wall , why don't you just not look at it ?
Speaker 2and , matter of fact , start ridicule , start ridiculing go buy .
Speaker 6Go buy something silly and put in front of it you know what ?
Speaker 3what it's half their house , right , I mean , they live together . It's their house .
Speaker 1It's maybe rock paper scissors .
Speaker 3I can promise you that .

Speaker 3I woke up at around 6 , am needing to use the toilet Really and there are stars and lines around really badly . I know what you mean I'm talking . My stomach was making those super bad noises that usually indicate I'm going to stink the bathroom out for a few hours . My girlfriend always starts her days with a shower . So , not wanting what's wrong ? Nothing Don't answer that question . Okay , I will not . My girlfriend starts . My girlfriend always starts her days with a shower . So , not wanting to make the bathroom smell really bad , I snuck out to use the lobby toilet . I was probably gone a good half hour . It's a good thing it wasn't me .

Speaker 3She didn't really care and insisted I should have woken her up , left a note , just gone in our bathroom

Speaker 6And then helicopter .
Speaker 3There was a moment that I was hoping someone would break in the house so I could put a bullet . Those days are gone .
Speaker 1Wow .
Speaker 6You were hoping you weren't pooping .
Speaker 3I was hoping to put the bullet in myself because I was married to you . Shut up . Dear Ams and Jams , thank you for your recent podcasts on polyamory . You're welcome . Now I have to ask you guys this so my husband and I have been together for 12 years and married for seven . We also have a kid who is two . My husband has been open about the fact that some of his previous relationships were poly and we have always been open to general , ethical , non-monogamy . For example , we used to go to sex parties together .
Speaker 2Just say that . Don't say all the other bullshit before .
Speaker 3Yeah , it did get dark , sorry about that .
Speaker 2Don't say the nonsense before , Just say we used to go to sex parties . Yeah , God Lee't have to go through the rest of it . Yeah , it did get dark Brittany .
Speaker 4Sorry about that . Don't say the nonsense before , Just say we used to go to sex parties . Yeah , God late . You have to make it sound clinical it has to sound .
Speaker 1Yeah , it has to have a term Nobody wants to sound like freaks .
Speaker 3Fast forward to about six months ago , when a friend of his came to the end of her marriage and quite urgently needed somewhere to stay . So we took her in . Obviously , that was all well and good at first and they were very close , but so were the three of us . There were nights when all , when we all slept in the same bed because she just couldn't face sleeping on her own . There were also nights when my husband slept in the bed with her , now at my suggestion , because again , she couldn't handle sleeping alone . But I struggled to share a bed with three of us because of space .
Speaker 6Fuck yeah , go get out , don't touch me , I'm hot .
Speaker 3Take my husband with you . However , the topic of Polly did come up a bit further down the line as a genuine option , and so they started spending every friday night together and honestly , I was and am genuinely happy with this . This started as a nominally friends with benefits thing but naturally progressed into a relationship .
Speaker 3I don't see anything going wrong here I honestly , don't think I have any issue with him sleeping with her , but the problem I am facing is that they want to live as a threesome forever , get a bigger house and do this permanently , and I can't tell you why , but I'm really uncomfortable about this permanent thing . On the other hand , my husband's mental health has always been really bad , but since my meta has lived here , what's that mean Meta ? Since my meta has lived here , what's that mean , meta ? Since my meta has lived here .
Speaker 3That maybe is a typo for her name , but since my meta has lived here and there have been more of us around , it has been a lot better .
Speaker 2Oh , is that like alpha ? No , no , no . Is that like is meta the ?
Speaker 3third in the relationship M-E-T-A that could be it .
Speaker 2I think that's it .
Speaker 3A lot better . So I really don't want to take this away from him , Really really don't want to . Yeah , that's what it is . So I have to find some way towards happiness for myself in this .
Speaker 3Even though I work from home and they both work out of the house , I never feel like I'm on my own anyhow or anymore , somehow , because wherever I look , there are reminders that it's the three of us . Wherever I look , there are reminders that it's the three of us . So I just feel permanently not at ease in my own home . Also , she really wants us to move houses so that we can have somewhere bigger , but also so that it doesn't feel like our house and she's there as an equal , and I really don't want to transition to having potentially less time with my husband than I do now . At the moment , he's in my bed four nights a week , in her bed for two nights and then we share a bed for one night . That's insane , it has to be said .
Speaker 3I really like my meta again , again with the meta a lot of the time , and one of my hopes is that if she and I work on our relationship and get closer , this will get easier for me , but at the moment I'm losing the home I thought I would grow old in and I'm worried . I'm losing half of my husband . I don't know what I'm , I don't know what I am looking for , but I am so worried right now . Ams and jams . I need your help .
Speaker 1Meta refers to your other partner or your partner's other romantic partner , essentially the person your partner is dating that you are not romantically involved with .
Speaker 3There you go . Oh , there's the answer . So what do we do with this ? What's our advice for this one ?
Speaker 6I think you're worried about the permanency of this . Is permanency a word ? It is now motherfucker .
Speaker 1She's the boss bitch .
Speaker 6I think you're worried about that because she just came out of a relationship with her husband . This is all real new and super in the like honeymoon stage , so buying a house and changing your life with your son and everything like that seems a bit drastic .
Speaker 6that's probably where your hesitation is coming from . I think you three need to sit down and discuss what your relationship is going to look like If you and her are going to be a thing and then her and him they're going to be a thing too , or if it's two separate things , kind of like what . I mean you might like something more like what our last guest had on you know , where they did a monopoly thing , where he was just with her and she would go kind of outside of the home to have another relationship . But I think having that outside of the home was a big piece of that . So I think , but would you be comfortable with that ? Well , I wouldn't . I mean they're kind of went down that road .
Speaker 1So I think they are expected to end .
Speaker 2Now she just likes that I can't say it .
Speaker 6Never mind , I'm going to be mean I think they need to kind of line out what they expect a family unit to look like as this , because this is something that's super new and it's always going to be exciting in the beginning .
Speaker 2But you have to look at longevity of it and how it impacts your child and your home . If you're already on a sleeping schedule , four nights a week it's just you and him . Two nights a week he's not even there , and then one night a week it's all three of you . That is ridiculous . Just if you're gonna do it , do it if you're , if you feel this way now how are you gonna feel next year ?
Speaker 5this is ridiculous this , this whole . Four nights in my bed , two nights . When is it when ?
Speaker 3is it gonna switch to three and three ? You know what I mean , which is also awkward , very strange right .
Speaker 6And if you are worried about losing time , if you are losing time to you're worried about losing time to your husband , then you're not exactly comfortable with the idea of poly , because that's the idea , yeah , and stop using all these goddamn terms Just said yeah , we had a threesome a couple of times and I liked it , and then you know what I want .
Speaker 3them all the time .
Speaker 4Turns .
Speaker 2Turns out , the bitch moved in , so now I feel a little funny .
Speaker 5Like say that next time ?
