本期节目讨论了父母在处理事情时的一些奇葩行为,这些行为被称作“妈妈数学”和“爸爸数学”。“妈妈数学”指的是母亲为了省事或出于某种目的而采取的看似不合理的行为,例如叫孩子帮忙做一些近在咫尺的事情,或者提前很久就开始为孩子制定严格的作息安排。“爸爸数学”指的是父亲为了省钱或出于某种目的而采取的看似不合理的行为,例如为了省几便士的油钱而多绕路行驶,或者在孩子质疑其行为时,用权威的语气反问孩子是否要挑战自己。这些行为有时会给孩子留下童年阴影,但长大后又会否认这些行为。节目中还讨论了其他一些父母的奇葩行为,例如母亲在孩子试图躲避挨打时,会夸张地表现出自己受伤的样子,或者母亲下班回家后,对正在放松的孩子们感到生气。这些行为都反映了父母与孩子之间存在的代际差异和沟通问题。

The most jar-renting possible. - I remember my mum used to do this. I've said this on the pod before, but my mum used to do this all the time. This is when I was still working at Grill on the Market. And obviously I knew I was livid every day because I worked the longest shifts out of everyone in my family. And I'm like, just let me rest, bro. I've got a 12 hour shift tomorrow, let me rest. Every morning before my mum would leave to work,

She would wake me up. I bear in mind, I probably had about five hours, six hours sleep at this point. She would wake me up, tell me the chores to do, not to forget and then leave. I was like, you know, I have a phone fucking text me. Literally text me. I tell her all the time, stop waking me up. Please text me. And she gets mad at me for me having an attitude at her.

All you knew was music. Yeah. - Why are you not allowed to just enjoy stuff? - Family! Parents don't want their kids to have fun. - They don't. - Period. - They don't, they don't, they don't. - Because I can, the thing is like,

As an adult now, we're all 32, you're probably familiar with this, right? We're deep in how hard, not necessarily how hard life is, but how stressful days can actually be. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I can imagine us now going back to yard and just seeing kids spread out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My days, man. I'm smacking everyone. I'm smacking all three of you in a row. Line up so I can clatter you as an ETC, like ta-ta-ta. I don't want to wave my hand more than once. ETC! ETC!

Because I can't come home from a long day and see you man running around having fun. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've just done a three hour commute. - Fucking fix up. - Yeah, yeah, I've done a three hour commute. Why you laughing? - Fuck. - Why you laughing? - Sit down and shut up. I'm hungry. - Fuck you laughing at? - No one made me food, nah. I'm the bread winner and there's no food on the table. - There's no fucking bread.

- Oh, so I get it. I get it. You see what I'm saying? But as a child, allow me. - And then ask for this life. - Facts. Facts, bro. - And then ask to be born, bro. I remember the one smackable offense all the time when I lost my temper as a kid.

Whenever my mom was like, "Oh, you have no respect." "I gave birth to you and I've raised you." I used to say, "That's the law." - Yeah, facts. - It's the law. Stop rubbing that in my face. - I would never say that about facts. - I said that twice. Wow. - I wouldn't be here. - Yeah, yeah, I was dodging. I said it twice in my life, I was dodging, bro.

- Oh my days. - I wanna be here. Wow. - I remember saying bro, you're moving like a ass to be born. - Yeah. - Fuck, it's the law to take care of me. Don't use that as the bare minimum. - Oh God. - Oh bro, I used to get crazy. - Oh Jesus. - But yeah, the fun aspect is mad. - It is, it is. You see what I'm saying though? - It's mad. I remember one time,

One time I asked my mum on one summer's day, one summer's day I asked my mum, can we go have a water fight? Me and my brother. She said, yeah, do your thing. She cost us for coming in wet. She lost her shit. She was like, look who. I was like, it's a water fight. It's a fucking water fight, bro.

And she was like, "You're taking a piss. Look, you're fucking close. You're soaking up the tea." I can't win. And she can't win. She wanted us to do water fight and just miss. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Dodge everything. - Yeah, play water. Just water the flowers. - Oh God. - Oh bro, jarring. - Very much so. All right, mum dad math. - Dad math? This has happened to me so many times. - Yeah, go on. - Dad math is making you fetch the belt for your own beating. - That's crazy. - Fuck!

- My pops would just say, go and pick a belt. - Pick a belt? - Go pick a, bro, you start doing my- - You're not allowed to pick the skinnier one. - Nah. - 'Cause then he's like, yeah, yeah. - And he will lick my skin off. The skinny ones will lick my skin off.

- Go and pick a belt. - Oh my God. - Nah, I'm sorry bro. I'm sorry, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. - That's fear. - Go and pick a belt. - Fear. - I'm leaving. I'm running away bro. - But you're not 'cause when you're back, it's even, I've told you man, this story, I've tried to run away before. I didn't make it far. I made it to school and back. They beat me. You man, they beat me. Fuck.

- Bro! - No, no, no, no. The mad thing about difference between your parents and my parents here. If I tried to run away, there will be no beatings ensued. - Okay. - The level of pure victim that my mom would play in those moments. - Oh, swear. - Bro, I'll never hear the end of it. - Oh, swear. - I'll never hear the end of it. She'll run to her room like I beat her. She'll run to her room, slam the door and cry so loudly.

and ask God why. - Nah, bro. Stop all of that. - I'm leaving because of you. - What did I do for this level of disrespect? - Oh my God. - This level of disdain. - That's a joke. - What did I do? - Bro, yeah. It's jarring. I would've been guilt tripped for four weeks. - Damn, yeah. I would've been beat that first day and being bruised for four weeks. My days. - I tried to run away before. - It just didn't work, bro.

I don't even know what prompted me to do it. - If I'm picking bells is what prompted you to do it. - Probably, but I don't know what I thought was, I don't know what I thought I was gonna achieve out of it. Do you see what I'm saying? - You're terrible, you're not supposed to know. - It was bonkers to me, I was in primary school. - I remember I was one point, I was so, this is so dramatic. I was so over this curfew bullshit. - Yeah. - I'm so over the bullying. - Yeah. - And the teasing. - Yeah. - I started looking at holes in bushes. As you're just walking down like a cycle path, you'll see like a little,

Just like a little crawl space in a bush. And you think, I could rather just live there. I could live there. No one's going to fire me, bro. And it looks kind of cozy. Wow. Then I can stay out as long as I want. Wow. Bro, obviously I'm talking to you. Yeah, clearly, bro. Yeah. And I used to look at like homeless people and I used to think, it doesn't look that bad. Yeah, you might go like, yeah, it looks cozy as fuck. What do you mean you got two sleeping bags? That's crazy, bro. Two sleeping bags and your hat's full of coins. I'm not seeing money like that.

You seem to be doing just fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow, yeah. But that picker belting is crazy. Brother. Yeah. Fetch. Fetch your weapon. Right. Mum math is making you clean the entire house for guests that aren't going to leave the living room. Fucking facts. Bro, when...

Telling me to clean my room because her friend's coming over is the most nuts thing ever. The most nuts thing for me. My mum would say, why haven't you changed my bed sheets? It's New Year's Eve. Stop. She said, we need to start the year fresh. Why haven't you changed my bed sheet? That's not a sentence a human being has said. I'm telling you, Nigerians, get away with murder. Murder, James. Murder.

Why? I can't even. You lost me in the first half. Why haven't you changed my bed sheets? I'll stand up. I mean, obviously I'll get sat back down, but in that moment I'll stand up. And then to finish it off, the confidence. It's New Year's Eve. The fuck does that mean to me? Family. I'm going to start the year fresh. Can't you see I want to start the year clean and fresh? I can't hear stuff like that. Can't you see I want to start the year clean and fresh?

Some of the stuff I've been told is so barbaric, bro. Can't you see? I want to start the year clean and fresh. Change my bed sheets. Wow. I couldn't hear that in a Nigerian accent. Oh, brother. It'll spin me. It's so barbaric, man. It'll spin me, bro. The chores they give us. Anyway. God. Yeah.

Yeah, go, go. Dad math is taking the money that was given to you by a relative and saying they're going to hold it for you. Been there so many times. Oh, bro. So many times. Bro, bro, bro, literally. Dad math is asking me the same math question whilst there's tears in my eyes. Oh, fuck. That's bullying. That's just bullying. Whilst there's tears in my eyes.

The next one. Good, good. Dad math is having kids with multiple women and expecting everyone to have one happy family. Oh, dads, yeah. Dads have a sense of delusion that doesn't, they demand respect in every facet. Factual.

So if my four baby moms are not getting along, where do you mind getting the audacity? I work 12 hours a day. I provide for all of you. Shut up and get along. Shut up. Shut up. You're going to put me in an early grave. You don't want that. Yeah. He's going to provide. When I was 17 kids, I'm complaining. No one ever comes to see me. No one ever comes to see me. That's all I've done for you, man. Oh, God. All right. I got a few more to go. God. Yeah.

Mum math is them having a bad dream so you can't go out. I've never had that one, but I've heard it. That's crazy. Mum slash dad math is not letting you stay out late, but comfortably sending you to another country to study.

That's me. To be fair, that's me. The way you, man, say that so comfortably has always spun me. Oh, we've got sent to wherever to study. Yeah, like the fact that like you're strict in this household, but you're willing to send me across the world. Yeah, facts. By myself. Facts, bro. Yeah. That's crazy. It's factual. It's just factual.

But you know when I was your age, I've done that. - Yeah, when I was your age, I was walking miles to school. - When you were my age, it was like 1974. Bro, so relax. - Yeah, literally. - I don't wanna be your age at that year, so relax. - Literally. - God, it's jarring. Anyway, last one.

If you're watching us on YouTube, please subscribe to the channel. If you're listening to us, leave a nice review. Remski, trash news, please, sir. A priest broke his seal of confession to put a cheating wife on blast to her husband. Oh, dear. Oh, dear, indeed. Oh, dear. He broke some rules and he's going to hell.

Where's the, what's the word I'm looking for? The confidentiality? Yeah, bro. Non-existent. Priest, lawyer, you can't be spilling my stuff. Fam, check it. A priest violated his confession seal in order to inform the husband about an unfaithful wife. The woman was in a true dilemma and believed that Reddit was the only place where she could get help.

The cheating woman went to the legal counsel subreddit to see if she could file a lawsuit against her priest. She posted about cheating on her husband while traveling for work in 2022. Mary didn't feel especially bad about it at the time since she and her husband were on a shaky ground. Raw. So you post about it. So she posted it on Beyonce's internet. Okay. But then came to her senses and she immediately felt horrible about the situation.

So she decided to come clean to the priest. As part of her penance, the priest told her that she had to tell her husband what had happened. Naturally, this is not a simple undertaking, so she paused to consider her options. So instead of checking in with the cheating wife, the priest felt that he needed to update and spoke with her husband instead. I can't even remember. She returned home one evening to discover him violently tossing her belongings out of their bedroom. She deduced what had happened.

My whole world is exploding because I thought confession was supposed to be private, she wrote. Does this priest have any kind of liability or responsibility? Bro, that's a good dilemma. I'm not going to lie. It is an interesting dilemma. It's interesting. I feel like... This is a paid advertisement for BetterHelp. Bro. Talk to me. Real quick, ask me what my self-care non-negotiables are. What? Grounding. Grounding.

Wim Hof breath work. Yeah. Eight hour sleep. Non-negotiables. Those are three perfect non-negotiables. And I'm proud of you. Thank you very much. I'm very, very proud of you. It's like when people say never skip leg day, but it's never skip therapy day. We all know how easy it is for our schedules to become overwhelmed with social gatherings and other obligations that leave us struggling to make time for the things that fill our own cups. 100%. It's like when your schedule is packed with big work projects,

and more, it's easy to let your priorities slip. Even when we know what makes us happy, it can be hard to make time for it.

But guys, when you feel like you have no time for yourself, non-negotiables like therapy are more important than ever. Agreed. And therapy has broader benefits like, for example, learning how to set boundaries in your life so that you feel empowered to be the best version of yourself. Exactly that. With almost 5,000 therapists in the UK already, BetterHelp can provide access to mental health professionals with a wide variety of expertise. Never skip therapy day with BetterHelp.

betterhelp.com slash gigs pod today to get 10% off your first month that's better help h-e-l-p dot com slash gigs pod it's it's very interesting when someone comment a priest violating his code never heard that one before facts wow noun for doing stuff this is the least of it yeah um but i feel like in that aspect you don't necessarily anyway continue i don't know man well

He said he only spoke to the husband because he needed an update. So it sounded like he assumed that the husband knew. Whether or not, it sounded like, I'm just checking in because I want an update about what's going on. Not like it's your business for an update. Yeah, definitely not your business. But the way it's premised here is that he wasn't spilling her confession.

It was a case of she'd confessed. He's saying, if you want to be forgiven by the Lord, you best go tell your husband. He assumed she wanted her to get forgiven by the Lord. So instead of checking in with the cheating wife, the priest felt he needed an update and spoke with her husband instead. So it didn't sound like you don't know this and she confessed this to me, but she's been cheating on you. It sounded like he said, so how do you feel after your wife told you?

Yeah, but it's also like, you're not a therapist. You shouldn't- Some people, I promise you, some people treat priests as therapists. I get that, but I also feel like, I don't think, well, I have no idea because I've never been to a priest in this manner or whatever, but I also feel like

a priest shouldn't be asking the questions. You should let whoever come into the room confess and speak and then listen and then like add tidbits as and when. Add Hail Mary's, add prayers. Do you see what I'm saying? A priest shouldn't... I, as the husband, shouldn't come into a church, sit down and a priest would tell me, so...

What's the update on you and your cheating wife? Do you see what I'm saying? - I think, I don't know, bro. This is his flock. I think you'll be surprised because the priest, it doesn't say here that he told the husband in the confession box.

- True. Okay. - That makes it worse, no? - No, 'cause he could have just seen the husband on Sunday and gone open to him and been like, 'cause the open plane, like I agree with what you were saying if it was in the confession box. - That's how deep in it. - If the husband went in the confession box and was speaking, speaking, speaking, then he's like, "Oh, by the way, how did this go?" That's not how it's supposed to go. But if it's just his flock,

People go to priests with issues all the time. And they want the priest's advice on this, that and the other. So he's probably confident to be like, you must be really hurting right now. How's everything? How are you coping? - He's like, what the fuck? - And he's like, what the fuck are you talking about? I was like, obviously Sarah and Donny. - Banging guys on Reddit. - Yeah, facts! Banging guys and talking about it on Reddit. How are you feeling? And I said, what? And he said, what? Facts!

- I told her she's going to hell if she doesn't tell you. - Yeah, but he's pulling his collar like, "Oh, she wants hell." - She wants hell. Say less, my bad, my bad, my bad. - Yeah, so I'm playing devil's advocate, obviously. But yeah, if it's premised that way, I can see that he hasn't really broken any oaths.

- I guess. - In that scenario, yeah, I agree. But I definitely assumed it was the way Fweg said it. - Same, yeah. 'Cause I'm looking at the picture, I'm seeing how it is. I'm just deep in it, it's in a confession box. - This confession box pic here is like just- - As soon as it's raining me. - Yeah. Like he's literally whispering to my man right there like, "Your fam." - Your fam. - So what going with your wife, man? - What going with your cheating wife? - I'd make a terrible piece. I'm telling everyone, everyone's business. There's not a wife in there that can come and tell me she's a cheat.

- There's not a wife in that flock that she can tell me she's a cheat and I'm not gonna tell her man. There's not a single one. - Why? - You wouldn't have a congregation anymore. - Yeah. - I know I wouldn't. - You wouldn't have anyone following you. - 'Cause I like sleep. I like peace, bro. I'm not finding this stuff out. Plus,

First of all, don't cheat. Second of all, don't tell me you cheated, posted it on Reddit, and I'm the criminal. Yeah, facts. You told the internet. It's free game. If you're posting it online, it's free game. But yeah, it's a bit mad. But yeah, at the same time, the confidence that she has to be like, I'm trying to sue this priest. Does someone help me?

That shows age difference already. I'm unattractive already. Under wisdom on her phone. I figured she called me wisdom because I teach her so much about life. My 18 year old daughter sent me a TikTok video that my young girlfriend made. In the video, she said, I'm so poor. I'm fucking an old man who's shaped like a wisdom tooth.

- No! - What a plot twist. - Fam, I'm so poor, I'm fucking an old man who's shaped like a wisdom tooth and he has the audacity to be cheap.

- Oh, bro. That's nuts. - That is nuts. - Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - What a good dilemma. Dilemma solved. - Yeah, it's a juicy one. - Right, so we've got a thread. - Yep, yep, yep. - Everyone's been sending me this thread all week. One thing I'm gonna address, one thing I'm gonna address before we do this thread is that this is another South African friend, yeah?

Yeah. Right. So let's clear the air with you, man. Let's clear the air. Facts. Because this week you might have been getting carried away. Facts. So last time we did a South African thread, me and Fiyad mentioned that half of the thread was in English and half of it wasn't, right? So we said that it was gibberish. Mm-hmm.

Now, there's a mishap here in intended use of the word gibberish. Facts. We use gibberish for everything. If I hear someone with a stri accent, that's gibberish. That's just noise. If someone's speaking overly intellectually to me and I can't understand it, you're speaking gibberish. If I'm in France, gibberish. Spain, gibberish. Yeah.

- When I saw that you man thought that we were saying that your mother tongue is gibberish, fam, this is actually dread. Let me actually do this because I was alone in my bed and I had to, I'm not gonna lie to you, man. I was so confused I had to Google what gibberish actually meant. - Family, someone on Twitter,

- I reposted the video and then someone quote tweeted that and saying, I can't believe they spoke, they called it gibberish, blah, blah, blah. And put the definition under it. - I had to Google what the definition of gibberish meant. 'Cause I thought there's no way a nation is this angry. - A nation.

An entire nation is this angry about saying gibberish. I call everything gibberish. And no one said anything. What does it mean? Because gibberish just means I don't understand. Yeah, mumble. Yeah, gibberish just means I don't understand you, bro. So when I read it, I was like, bro...

Bro, whatever gibberish, yeah? Noun. Unintelligible. Oh, God. Meaningless. Oh, God. Bro, nonsense. Oh, God. Whatever that was like, raw. Okay, my bad, my bad. Raw, raw, raw. Apologies. Yeah, you're stronger, you're stronger. Yeah, you're stronger, you're stronger. My bad, my bad, my bad. If you man thought that...

We were saying that your language is meaningless. - And unintelligible. - And unintelligible. - Come on, man. - Bro, we're sorry. - We are sorry. - Obviously we did not, we're not saying that. - Jeez. - Fucking hell, bro. When I read that, I was like, "Wha?" So, all seriousness, guys, if you genuinely thought that's what we meant and that's how you took it,

our sincerest apologies. We would never ever, ever say that your mother tongue is unintelligible or meaningless. - Facts. - The way we use the word, it just means I don't understand. That's literally it. So again, apologies. We love you South Africa. Oh, another thing, I need to hold my hands up.

- I said that man was Swahili. - Swahili, yeah. - I'm not gonna lie. - That's Kenyan, I'm sure he's a Kenyan. - He's a bear East African. I just Googled that too. - Yeah, I think it's Kenyan. - You might have put me on game this week because that's just what I thought. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - That's just what I thought. - When you said it, I wasn't sure, but I also didn't have the balls to correct you. - Yeah. - 'Cause I wasn't, do you know what I mean? - Yeah, you don't know. - It was one of them ones where, it's one of them ones where like, I was also saying it to say it. I wasn't actually,

I didn't know where I didn't know who said Swahili I just said it again didn't mean to be offensive I just said it so then I had to google what language they speak in South Africa first of all it's like 26 oh yeah there's a few yeah I was like damn bro so again if you were offended by that

- I'm sure one is like Kosa or something like that. - Oh fam? - Yeah. Like XHSA or something. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. But anyway, guys, let's have a clean slate. - Yeah. - We love you. You love us man. - We love you. We didn't mean it. Please don't be vexed. - Come on man. - But yeah, you might have juicy, juicy threads as well. So let's start burn bridges. - Facts bro. - Let's start burning bridges. - Facts, 'cause you guys provide the content. We just spread the word. - Yeah. - But, all right, start us off. - Anyway, the title of the thread is,

That phase where you slowly start hating your girlfriend is crazy. This might be one of the funniest threads. It's one of the funniest stories I've ever seen in my entire life. Bro, I was in the barber's screenshot and wanted to save for the show, like holding my breath. I was in the chair holding my breath so I didn't fuck my partner. It's hilarious. Yeah, bro. It's fact, right. You can kick us off and then we're just going to run it. All right. You'll be wondering why your day is going so well. Her battery died. Bro, bro.

Oh my God. This is nuts. You'll be having a bad day and when she hugs you, it becomes even worse. That's nuts, bro. Oh my God. Then someone commented under that, her hug feels like you're getting mugged. Man said, I remember this one time on a weekend, she said she was coming. Yo, I cried. Bro.

Donnie said pretending to be asleep and murmuring her girl best friend's name in a sexy way so that she gets a reason to leave. Oh my days, bro. That's insanity. That is insanity. Because you're risking a broken nose. You're risking a broken a lot of things. That's insanity. Facts. When she says talk to me and you know she's not worth the effort so you just tell her it's fine. Yeah. Oh.

That's tough. She's not worth the effort. Talk to me, you know? Bro, when her kisses start to feel like being licked by a dog. Ah! Nah. This one. It's a comment and then it's a screenshot of a text message. It says, when you know deep down this isn't a typo. And then the text says, I wish you were her. Yeah. Oh, and then comment here. Yeah. Nah.

Bro, slight pause in this. The reason this is so funny is because all Brares know this feeling. Oh yeah, facts. It's not always with a girlfriend. It could just be with a ting. Ting, yes, yes, yes. And this ties into that PNC mentality as well. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And you're just like, don't touch me. Don't speak to me. I'm done with you. Bro, when you wake up and see that good morning handsome and you're just like,

Fuck off. Fucks, bro. Fuck off. What is this? I'm not handsome to you. I'm not your handsome. I'm not your man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're butters, bro. Stop. Have I been banging you for three months? Yes. But am I over it? Yes. Bro. Oh, God. When you're wondering why you're having such a peaceful day and it turns out she was giving you the silent dreamer.

Brutal. When you keep messing up on purpose so that she gives you a reason to break up and she keeps forgiving you. Damn. Jaren. Fam, this one, when you receive her text and it's like a debit order. Fam, a text from your girl is like someone asking you for money. Oh my days. You'll be ghosting her and she will still be texting you like, I just want to make sure you're okay. You can talk to me. I don't want to throw my phone. Bro. Oh, this one was the craziest one.

when you have to spit on her back to pretend that you came because she doesn't turn you on anymore. - That's uncalled for. - That's actually beyond out of order. - Yeah, that's uncalled for. - That's too far. That one had replies. - I can imagine. - That one had replies, bro. - This one, you start asking yourself things like, does she have to chew when she eats? - Yeah. Bro, the infuriation. Wow.

When you open a text thinking it's from the woman you actually want, but it's from her. Savage. When she holds your hand in public and you feel like cutting it off. Oh my God. That made me snort. Oh my God. Wow. Oh my God. When she says, I'll call you when I get home, then you switch off your phone and remove the battery. The removal of the battery is crazy. He doesn't want to communicate with anyone. There's no chance you're getting through to me.

Remove the battery. Brazy. Oh, right. When you walk past a group of niggas with her on purpose and no one tries to take her off your hands. That's a next level. When you no longer have an ego about her, that's another level. Fam, this one. This one might be the same as yours. When the problem asks you what the problem is.

- This one? When her smile takes away yours. - No! - Oh God. - Oh God. - This is the funniest one. - When you decide to unlock your phone so she could check any time.

Oh my God. Sometimes having a girlfriend is like having an op you're forced to see. Oh my God. Jesus. I think I'm done. Same bro. I think I'm done bro. Wow. Wow. Thread.
