Chapter 1: What are the hosts' thoughts on community and camaraderie?
Patriots, gay-triots, and they-triots. So what are we? We're the blue winged hawk. Blue winged hawk. Here's the deal. Here's the deal, listener. You still get to be a patriot. You still get to be a gay-triot. You still get to be a they-triot. You still get to be a decent person. You still get to experience joy. Nobody can take that from us. But right now, we're all sharing a lot of despair and
And what we do is we build communities. And we have been building a community for the last two years of this podcast. And the community remains. The camaraderie remains. The cynicism remains. The grievances remain. The laughter remain. And we still get to share that with one another. But Pumps and I would like to really reach out to the marginalized members of this community and say, we know.
that this is especially painful for you and that it especially feels personal. And we are here. We are still your podcasting mothers. And we will always fight the good fight for you because we value you over the cost of eggs. We value your right to exist over all of these other crazy things. And so just know that you matter and that we love you.
And moving forward in our podcast so that we can all stay sane, we'll address the pain that we're all going through. We'll address the need for all of us to mobilize, form a community and launch the resistance. But we also still get to laugh. We also need to remember that we still get to experience joy. So in that regard. Meemaw's been having a hard time, you guys.
She's over here, boodle baby, crying. She keeps calling me a titty baby and she's not wrong. I mean, it's titty baby city over here for Meemaw. It's actually very sweet. But Meemaw, what have you had it with? Okay.

Chapter 2: What grievances do the hosts have with drop-off and pickup lines?
What I've had it with is people that do not behave appropriately and drop off and pick up blinds. Now, I had forgotten because it's been so long that my kids were in a drop off and pickup line. How fucking mad it makes me when people like stop the car. They get out and talk to other people. Blocking everybody else's thoroughfare. What do you call it? Way through.
Like they block traffic because they're so busy. Unable to be self-aware that they are blocking everybody else's time. It makes me fucking crazy. It just happened to me at drop-off at the doggy daycare. I go to pull in and it's like a two-person deal. This motherfucker, he parked his car right in the middle so nobody in front of him can could park. Nobody could get to the side.
Nobody could get in behind because he was like dead smack in the middle of the drop off area. He had the back of his car open, which I assume his dog jumped out, which is fine, but he left it there. So I had to park kind of down the street and take my little dog in. And I just thought, you're a fucking dick. You're just a dick.
Like the lack of self-awareness in the drop-off and pickup line is unbelievable. People just do not have any concept that there is anybody else on the planet but them.
I think that parking lot awareness is something that needs to be highlighted. I do not trust the incoming administration to tackle this. So we here at I've Had It Podcast are going to try to tackle these things that I'm sure the new fascist authoritarian government will ignore. And parking lot awareness is something that we can do together, listener. We can make change.
We can implement change in parking lots. It's something tangible that we can do. Thank you for bringing that to the listener's attention. Let me tell you what I've had it with. You and I recently returned on a flight to Oklahoma City and we landed and we were on the tarmac and the pilot comes on and he says, Oh, listen up, folks. Looks like there's another plane at our gate.
We'll push off in about five to ten minutes. So we're just going to sit here and hang tight. We'll let you know when we're able to push forward. I look out the window. Much to my surprise, there are about six gates with no airplane attached to them. No airplane parked there. And I'm thinking to myself, why can't you improvise? Why can't This airport say there's somebody at gate seven. Right.
But gate eight, nine, 10, 11 and 12 are available. So why don't you all just push to one of those so we can get these people off of that bird? It makes me insane. You have to improvise. Improvise for God's sakes. Nobody likes flying. But the people that run all the flying are. could take measures and do things to make it a tinge less painful.
A solution that I could see from my little window, my little oval shaped window, I could see I have a solution to this problem. Right. And I know that I wasn't the only person thinking that.

Chapter 3: What frustrations arise from airport operations?
So it's not like there were 27 different planes sitting on the tarmac trying to get in. We were it. That was it. We were the list. And we sat there for about 20 minutes.
That's the thing. When you go to other airports, how many times are we on our way to a large city airport and it says gate change? And then you get through security and then there's another gate change. And then you get to the gate that you thought was changed and they've changed it again. They're improvising. Right. These little things.
smaller airports of second tier cities, they are not improvising. But listener, I'm going to tell you what, we are going to have the mayor of Oklahoma City on this show soon. And Kylie, write down this. I want a list. There's a list of things I'd like to talk to him about to impact change on a local level. Right.
And number one is Will Rogers International Airport's ability to improvise to make flying less painful. And I'm just going to tell you, listener, where we can impact change, we're going to try to do it. Micro level. Micro level. Parking lot. This lesson today, parking lot awareness. And then step two is we're going to have the mayor of Oklahoma City on the podcast to address this issue.
I want to confront him about it. I need to talk to him about this. There's some other things. I'll save it for the episode. But I actually have a list of things regarding the airport. And listen, anybody that works at Will Rogers World Airport, my grievances are not with you. I know that all of you all are doing your job. My grievances are with the boss, whom I believe might be the mayor.
I'm unsure. Maybe not. But we're going to get to the bottom of it.
Okay. I'm just going to say I do have one tiny grievance with Oklahoma City Airport with a direct person. And it's that old man that sits at baggage claim. And he talks your ear off. And he's a volunteer. And he's like, any questions for me about where I'm going to Oklahoma City? I mean, he's no less than 90. And he talks like he just talks and talks and talks and talks.
And he doesn't breathe because he's talking so much. And so that I have a grievance with, which I know part of me is like, he's a little old man. He doesn't have anything to do. He goes to the airport and he's a volunteer. Good for him. That's what a good, nice person would say. But in my mind, I'm thinking, shut the fuck up.
Listener, this is what you call elder on elder abuse. Yes. This is this is elder cannibalism is what this is. I should have more empathy.

Chapter 4: How do the hosts address the issues facing the LGBTQ+ community?
But I I want to say this like. This is different. This election is different. If this were John McCain, Nikki Haley, Mitt Romney, I can disagree with them policy wise. I have a really hard time with people that triple down on this guy and where they fall morally. I do. And I I know that our listener does, too. And it's just it's a it's a walking red flag.
It is a walking red flag into somebody's true character, in my opinion. It's on fire.
I mean, it surpasses Red Flag because we've had – I mean, look at all the – I'm not going to go into it. But it's very concerning.
Okay. This one is five stars from Ryan, and he titles it It's Kathy's Show. Truly so fun listening to young millennial Kathy help Jessica and her great-great-grandmother Angina navigate the digital sphere as they discuss the issues that matter, like large fallacies in politics. 10 out of 10, pure menopausal chaos. I live for it. I love that.
I have to tell you guys, on election night, we stopped by one of the candidates here's party. And someone, I was up at the bar ordering, and someone said, Hey, Kathy. We started talking and then at the end she goes, what is your real name? And she didn't know my real name was Kylie. I love that.
Yeah. Because I am the great, great, great, great, great grandmother. Angina. Angina, which I kind of like. I like it. We'll just add that to the list. Yesterday I had my meet curtain meemaw t-shirt that are, uh, One of our Patreon members made for me and gave it to me at the Seattle show.
So I know how Gen Z is taking this because my kids are Gen Z. But Kylie, why don't you give us a report from millennials? How are the millennials? Y'all came up in the Obama era. Yeah. And how are y'all taking this?
Not good. It was rough. I think Anna, my girlfriend, cried all day yesterday. I do want to thank our listeners and some of our Patreon members. I've just been poured with nice messages, and so have you two that I've had at Instagram. People are worried about you guys. It's been tough.
And you reach out to your other friends that you know feel the same way as you do, and you kind of just all have to stick together, I feel like. Yeah. But yesterday I went a little unhinged. I was DMing people posting racist shit, and it felt really good because I don't do that.

Chapter 5: What are the stories shared about online dating nightmares?
I think catfishing is so mean. It is. And people, you know, everybody gets to be perfect in their online persona, you know? And so it's like, I kind of feel like it would make you have higher expectations than what humans are really capable of a little bit. But yeah, that's terrible. And you know, the thing is you hear about it all the time. There's even a TV show about it.
Listener, they even made a TV show about it. Yeah, I've watched it. You did? During the pandemic, my kids and I would watch it. I mean, honestly, you kind of got catfished. Right.
But that was not even that was just complete, not even online. Listen, I'm referring to the time that Pumps had the unwilling affair with a married man. The only time I've known for her to date since she got divorced.
Yeah.
Yeah. Does he see texted you? Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
Well, all right. Listen up, listener. This is kind of how it's going to go moving forward. We have to come together. We have to laugh together, cry together, you know, share stories together. And we all still get to live our lives and still get to form a community. And just because we're laughing at something doesn't mean we're neglecting something else.
So don't fall into this trap that I can't laugh right now. I, you know, blah, blah, blah. We are human beings and we get to have compound feelings and compound emotions.
We can be devastated about the election results, worry for our well-being, worried for our friends' well-being, and then also make space to come together and remember certain things about the human experience, which are camaraderie. laughter, and togetherness. And that's what we want to offer you all moving forward.
