00:00uh rochelle just texted me uh today is uh our oldest son uh parker's 22nd birthday today which
00:07is just mind-blowing uh that he's 22 and i was realizing something yesterday while thinking
00:12about his birthday i was kind of doing the math in my head uh because carter uh my youngest son
00:18is 20 years old and i realized that was about 20 years ago like around this time like this week
00:25that uh the last time i ever smoked a cigarette really yeah 20 years ago i quit smoking cigarettes
00:32and that made you horny and therefore you we had another then we had caroline uh no i realized that
00:39because we were still smoking both rochelle and i not while she was pregnant though and then uh after
00:46carter was born she's like okay we need to quit for good so she was the one and she she had already
00:52quit and i i hung on for a little bit longer and i'm like this is dumb i can't be doing this and so
00:57i quit 20 years ago and your way of quitting has since been adopted by the american medical
01:03and explain what you did i went on a binge drinking bender
01:11for about 10 days straight and listen it worked don't tell me i took and knock it i took the and
01:22you said you virtually never swerved while you were driving this was my god this was my own system
01:27i did this i realized i i wanted to take my weakest moment right came to cigarettes and break
01:33that's smart and i wanted to break myself of that a compulsion to smoke during my weakest moments
01:39because i was like a half a pack a day smoker but if i was drinking i'd go through a pack cigarettes in
01:47two hours i mean just so that was that was your procedure that made you feel you couldn't do one
01:53without the other well that's smart so i'm like okay what i need to do is i need to learn how to drink
01:57and not smoke that's that's and then then i said the rest of it will be easy and so and i decided
02:03my method was now i'm not just going to drink beer every night i'm going to drink something different
02:08every night crippling oh yeah blitzing so i drank beer one night i drank tequila
02:14another night another night i did like 10 you're like a you're like a living a week for sure you
02:22were a living george thurgood song yeah um good question uh no it wasn't no no it was it was hard
02:28to not smoke yeah like i had to sit there and force myself no matter how much you want to smoke
02:34don't smoke so you were an emotional drunk at this point uh probably
02:38and you were coming to work i was coming to work and i had two young children in the house i had a
02:47baby i'm doing this for you did your wife know what you were doing baby and a kid that wasn't
02:53wasn't quite two years old so what you did though there's a there's a commercial for this is a go
02:58lower i don't know what it is but it's or it's a it's a um weight loss thing that apparently i think
03:04it basically does what you oh it modifies your your lifestyle in that well if you snack doing this
03:14right then don't do that and i think that's what it is i'm not exactly sure but that's it worked i think
03:20that's a 20 years later i haven't been able to to to take this method and use it with something else
03:27like some kind of vice that you have or something you want to change yeah like that's just crazy talk
03:33that's how would you do that i mean like it has to one one has one thing has to come with you only
03:41have two hands yeah right right how are you gonna get some cap off yes try doing it just using your
03:48elbows right right right you can't come on this is too hard i'm not gonna do this anymore literally
03:54i have trouble reaching with my forearm wow but two decades i haven't had a cigarette it's amazing
04:01well i gotta tell you i smoked one last night you're missing it man it's it's amazing oh you went
04:05to a fish show it is so great uh and and you look so cool doing it too so kids if you're listening
04:10yeah oh my god you might want to start smoking again so is it is it you reserved that one time
04:14i just smoked one last night um and by the way uh hello to listener tim um i decided last night to
04:21just go as close to the stage as i possibly could so i ended up uh just started walking over people's
04:28towels and blankets and i found a little spot i ended up you guys remember reese who we used to
04:32work with here yes yeah absolutely his sister india had recognized me so i ended up hanging with her
04:38and her uh i guess either boyfriend her husband keith and then i looked over i saw this guy wearing
04:42a wmr shirt so i went over and i talked to him right and uh he's a retired uh air force guy and uh and
04:49so i ended up bumming a smoke from him it was awesome it was a great cigarette one of the best
04:53ones i've ever had in my life really what made it so awesome it was a menthol i haven't had a menthol
04:57in like forever yeah let me ask you do you uh do you still have marlboro points that you never
05:03oh my god routine the miles right because then you see i remember you smoked marlboro did you not
05:09yeah yeah the funniest and like most ironic thing about that steve because i had when i started
05:14smoking i was younger and and the marlboro miles right right it was sort of the impetus if you're
05:18going to pick a brand they they gave you you had a catalog and you know it's i mean it's essentially
05:23like going to dave and busters and and you have all these these tickets right and the tickets will
05:27get you an eraser right right so you basically have to smoke a million pack of cigarettes right
05:32in order to get a jean jacket but like the ironic part is like the coolest stuff they had are things
05:37that like smokers don't want to do smokers don't want to do freaking kayaking
05:41you
