Welcome to the Dysfunction Junkies podcast. We may not have seen it all, but we've seen enough. And now here are your hosts, Chrisy and Kerry.
Kerry:Hello Junkies, Welcome to your safe space. I'm Kerry and
Chrisy:I'm Chrissy
Kerry:Big week. This week it's St Patrick's Day. This weekend.
Chrisy:Yay, top of the morning to y'all.
Kerry:Chrisy, are you at all Irish?
Chrisy:No, None, none, I don't believe so. No, a sibling did the little testy thing Ancestrycom.
Kerry:One of them, ancestrynet.
Chrisy:That's going to be a stay tuned for a future episode in regards to those, but she shared her report with me and I didn't see anything like that. I mean, there's a ton that goes into making up this wonderful person. Here there's all kinds of but no Irish, but not a sliver, not a gold coin, not an Irish beer, not a nothing.
Kerry:Well, apparently, according to Anterosticom DNA testing, I am 6% Irish, which growing up, we were always told we were 100% Italian. It was a little bit of a surprise when I got my DNA test results that I was not all Italian in that I had Irish in Wait a minute, so you're 94%. Oh, no, no. Why do they do that? I know?
Chrisy:They don't want to be bothered with all the other stuff. Everybody's just like you know what I'm just this. I don't want to explain everything Everybody's, just like. You know what I'm just this. I don't want to explain everything.
Kerry:My husband was very disappointed because, you know, when we met and found out I was Italian because that's what I thought I always was he was like, oh, I'm going to get the best spaghetti. I hate spaghetti, Do you really I really do, so I hardly ever cook it and he's like I've been robbed. And then, when I got my ancestry report back, I was like well, this explains why I don't like the spaghetti, because I'm not as Italian as I thought I was.
Chrisy:Just a quick segue, though. Your family's ancestry hails from northern Italy.
Kerry:I'm betting.
Chrisy:Because you're all like beautiful kind of blondish and light eyed. Yes, my family's a little bit on the darker side, you are.
Kerry:And we are definitely from the South.
Chrisy:People loving the South. We at the bottom of the boot. That's why I don't burn real easy. I got good skin.
Kerry:Yes, yes, yes yes, so what are your plans for St Patrick's Day? Nothing. So what are your plans for St Patrick's Day? Nothing.
Chrisy:No, nothing, I don't think so. No, I did finally invest in a shirt with a clover on it. Oh, I forget what it says. Something about being lucky. Not luck of the Irish, because I'm not Irish. Shoot, I forget what it says on it. I'll have to remember. I should be wearing it.
Kerry:And we went to a Catholic high school that was very Irish Irish, yes, so I was Irish for four years of my life, more than I'm now. You're a very participant.
Chrisy:You were a very good participant in that. We wore kilts. We did. People sent each other green carnations that were colored torture to the carnation. I don't know that they were naturally that color, but you dipped them in the green dye and we sent them to each other.
Kerry:Well, I didn't get any. Did you get some? Yeah, oh.
Chrisy:Even though I wasn't that popular. No, you Well, your boyfriend didn't go to school with us.
Kerry:Again, he could have paid like he knew you.
Chrisy:He could have said hey, chrissy, can you buy some carnations and hook, carry up, yeah usually I'd be like all you know, about a month before or a couple weeks before, be like all friendly with somebody. I could usually get some dope to subscribe to send me a flower and then the next day I was like I don't know you. I sent you flowers. When? What color were they? Let me guess.
DJ Nick:Get away from me.
Chrisy:Yeah, so we had to participate, and that's why I think, for a long time I didn't have the Irish colors in my closet.
Kerry:Yes.
Chrisy:And my husband is half Irish but not the Irish that celebrates. Oh okay, he's the other half. Irish.
Kerry:I'm thinking they're represented the orange yeah on their flag. I never realized that. That was something I learned. New today was that the colors meant.
Chrisy:The different religions didn't realize that I never know what anybody's flag means.
Kerry:Oh, I think the stars mean how many states we have right now somebody told me that my husband uh, we need to do the dna test on him because I'm sure he's got Irish in him just because of, like, he's got a little bit of the red in his hair. I mean he's, he's blonde hair, blue eyes, but there's, there's the red flecking in there and then the skin his he's kind of got the freckles and stuff. So I'm sure, yeah, I was worried about that when I started having kids.
Chrisy:Oh, and I was worried about that when I started having kids.
Kerry:Oh.
Chrisy:And I was also worried about maybe somebody with red hair. Oh, Because I haven't nobody in our family has that yeah. I'm very self-absorbed most of the time and I was like, really, we haven't noticed. I was like if they have red hair, which is beautiful, but they're going to think it's not my right, not your kid yeah, you know, my husband doesn't have red hair, but I knew there was Irish there and I said that could just all of a sudden pop out Come, come along, yeah, so no, no.
Kerry:You know, I've never, we never. I think we talked about this in our Halloween episode Like we didn't decorate for things growing up, like really, the only thing we really decorated for was Christmas, so we never did the you know Valentine's Day decorations everything in the house and then change it to you know St Patrick's Day or whatever. I've never been into that and still so I really don't celebrate these holidays much and I'll never forget we were living in Las Vegas, went to go out to dinner on March 17th and hey, let's go out to dinner tonight, let's go down one of the strip and one of the nice restaurants. Big mistake, huge mistake, really big mistake.
Chrisy:You remembered real quick what day it was.
Kerry:Yep, and I had no clue that St Patrick's Day in Las Vegas is almost a bigger event than New Year's Eve on the Strip in Las Vegas.
Chrisy:I think it is for a lot of people.
Kerry:Oh it was horrible. Oh my gosh, just the shenanigans going on. My very bad attempt at a we're sorry if we're not.
Chrisy:We're just trying to have fun, because everybody's having fun today on St Patrick's Day.
Kerry:they love it, they love it. But uh, yeah, it was, it was just mayhem and drunkenness and oh my gosh, like it was just the things we saw, like people peeing in the street because they were so drunk, and oh, oh, it was just, it was horrible. So, yeah, we learned from then on like don't go on the strip on St Patrick's Day.
Chrisy:Yeah, I worked. I've worked for a lot of wonderful people and I still think that a lot of them are wonderful, even though some of the people I've worked for have been up to no good, no good all the time and maybe had to go away for a while and then come back, oh. But hey, you know it's work experience for me, so I appreciate that. But I worked for, uh, someone who was irish who also went to our high school. Uh-huh, they had a yearly party, oh, and it was very known in their circles that they were having this party. It was a regular event for a lot of people and the wine and the beer was all Was this party held at their house, or did?
Chrisy:they have it at an event center. They usually had it at one of the places down in the park, the one pavilion down there the big one Pioneer Pavilion. Is it enclosed? Yes, that one is enclosed.
Kerry:Oh okay, and that's actually a nice March in Ohio. Yeah, no, no, this one.
Chrisy:Pine River Pavilion in Mill Creek Park is closed and it's a pretty big venue. It's beautiful inside. It has a lovely upper floor with the wood and the stone. I highly recommend it. Not to give a plug, but I guess I am, but they would have a party there every. As far as I can remember, that's where it always was and you had the green beer, you had the green wine, you had a lot of irish people who were very enthusiastic about being irish and about saint patrick's day, and I'm sure a lot of people who are not irish but still were irish that day. Everybody's supposed to be irish day. I'm not exactly sure. Yeah, if everyone agrees with that.
Kerry:But yeah, no, we didn't decorate for St Patrick's Day because, like I said, no one in my family is Irish. I don't understand. Is then the decorating goes to a whole nother level. Like Chicago, they dye their river green.
Chrisy:Yeah, I've seen this and heard of this.
Kerry:I've never I've been to chicago, but not during this. But what I don't understand is why only that day of year, like okay then why don't they dye it red at valentine's day?
Chrisy:well, that's terrifying, and now we're referencing back to our previous episode. That becomes biblical.
Kerry:Oh, are we talking about the king james version of the bible or the queen christine version of the?
Chrisy:bible usually means the fish have gone bad, um or something I don't know, or the world is about to end, or something. Yeah, but then why?
Kerry:can't they make it what? What I don't understand is why is it that they're going to kill the environment one day a year by?
Chrisy:dying this whole. You mean it's not a bunch of the mccormick dye they use. That's no food. I don't, I don't know, it's not food grade. Diet it happened?
Kerry:I would hope that it is I don't know we're thinking wrong. Yeah but what I don't understand is why is it that only that one day a year? Why don't they do it for other things? Why not make it a beautiful turquoise blue in the summertime? So like people? Think they're in the caribbean instead of you know I will reference a movie, the fugitives yeah, that takes place in chicago.
Chrisy:There's a character in there that works under tommy lee jones that asks him a question. If you know anything about tommy jones, yeah, generally he's agitated by people and who's in a movie with him and the guy asked him how come they can dye this river green on St Patrick's Day and they can't dye it blue the other 364 days of the year? There you go, but I mean, I agree, I guess I don't know, I don't live in Chicago. So nice idea, I guess, to dye things green. People love dyeing things green. Even though we were not Irish growing up, yeah, we still got a leprechaun running through the house somehow, is it?
Kerry:like one of those elf on the shelf things. No, no, no, no.
Chrisy:You never saw this one.
Chrisy:Oh, which is terrifying, especially if you grew up in the 70s. Yeah, there was like horrible movies about like little dolls and stuff that would come to life and then bite you like a trilogy of terror or something like that. I remember it was like this one doll or something. If it lost its necklace it had these horrible fangs on her name karen black. I remember the actress's name, my one sister. She used to always reference that. That must have freaked her. That was one of her traumas. But you, I had a vision of this crazy leprechaun running through the house because somebody one of my cousins I think used to do this. My parents did not participate in this and I think we were at my grandparents house or something. And you go to the bathroom all of a sudden, the water, the water was green in there and you're like and you're like four or five years old, you're freaking out. You're like somebody's sick in the house. Just piss green in here. We would.
Kerry:We would have never done that at our house because we lived on a farm and had well water and so my mom would have never done anything like that, because you know if you put anything anything down the drain you know bleach or whatever down the drain, that's going to eventually go back into your water that you're drinking. So yeah, she wouldn't have done that.
Chrisy:You had to be a chemist to understand exactly what you could do, because it could turn into some other. Yeah, no city water, don't throw the green in. Who cares? Yeah, and it just used to freak me out because you'd find like little green drops everywhere and I'm like, is the leprechaun bleeding? Is this some sign that something horrible is about to happen?
Chrisy:I mean, a leprechaun shows up at your house for St Patrick's Day and all they can do is run around to all of your toilets and take a piss. They don't leave any gifts, they don't leave any candy. There is no point. And if that's not bad enough, my daughter come home and I think they talked about this stuff in school and she insisted that we had a leprechaun and it put a lot of pressure on me and so I had to step it up a notch and instead of it just being the leprechaun pisses in all the toilets. I had to take it from that to pooping. So I colored a bunch of marshmallows green and I said he took a dump in the box and I was like I don't know where he went.
Kerry:Well, we do know where he went.
Chrisy:He took a dump and left here. That's what he thinks of us. He probably found out we weren't Irish that way.
Kerry:Why do we do these crazy things?
Chrisy:Somebody starts to torture us. They obviously don't have kids.
Kerry:The worst thing? Well, the best and the worst thing about St Patrick's Day to me is the weather, because here in Northeast Ohio, you know, hopefully you know we just came out of February where we had the single degree temperatures and the Arctic cold. Now we're going to get this little fake spring.
DJ Nick:Yeah, you know, the teasers the teaser.
Kerry:And my husband will get all excited. He'll be like yay spring's here and I'll be like, nope, st Patrick's Day hasn't come yet, because that was always the telltale we were always going to get some big winter catastrophe of cold and snow on St Patrick's.
Chrisy:Day, st Patrick's Day, we were always waiting Right and how?
Kerry:I really know this because I cannot tell you how many parades that I have been in.
Chrisy:I was just going to bring up the parade. I was at a parade or two for you, because my other friend was also marching in that parade. Yes, and it was usually.
Kerry:I don't remember it ever being nice, it was never nice and it would never fail, like the day before the parade. It'd be beautiful, it'd be lovely, we'd be like, oh my God, we're going to have a nice day. And we'd wake up the next morning and it'd be like frozen tundra and snow and we had to trudge down. It was horrible.
Chrisy:It was horrible for everyone Us watching you marching, it was just a nightmare.
Kerry:You were such a good friend to come though remember you used to throw candy out at parades?
Chrisy:yeah, do we still do that? I don't think they're allowed.
Kerry:I don't know, yeah, I don't know, that was always fun yeah, you know, I did recently because I was lions, a lion for lions international, and we had a little parade in our town and we did throw out candy, but there was some kind of rule about the candy which I mean most candy isn't a wrapper anyways, but otherwise people were throwing out other things that were non-food related.
Chrisy:So yeah, but maybe it depends on the town you live in yeah, I'm not a parade person and parades are dangerous, is my opinion because, just there's terrible people out there so it's too many people too close together.
Kerry:I would rather be in the parade than on the sideline of the parade.
Chrisy:I'd rather watch the Macy's Day Parade.
Chrisy:Yes, while I'm making my turkey and let everybody else go out there and stand there in the cold. Yeah, yeah, I'm not going to go watch a parade anymore. No, yeah, no. St Patrick's Day is interesting. Yeah, it's fascinating. People love it. Talking about that weather issue the one person I did work for who used to have the big shindig every St Patrick's Day with the colored beer and wine yeah, we got a really one year they were having it and we got a really bad snowstorm, yeah, and they had to cancel it and they were stuck with. They didn't just reschedule it, no, no, no, I don't think so. And they were stuck with green beer and wine and I don't know what happened, but it was. It was an unfortunate event, I guess.
Kerry:Did you ever see those things? And this is a good thing for the St Patrick's Day they do, where the people shave their hair off for the kids with cancer. So they do. It's like St Baldo, I don't know.
Kerry:There's a reference or something to us, but it's a thing and so yeah, because where I used to live there was an Irish bar kind of at the top of the street. I remember we were walking around the plaza. Then one day it was St Patrick's Day time. They had all these guys were in this tent just all getting their head shaved.
Chrisy:Yeah, that's a good. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's a that's a good thing. And if you're doing that for St Patrick's Day, I support you and that is wonderful. If you're going to drink and become obnoxious and be a burden to society for 24 to 48 hours, if it's a weekend, you know, oh my God. But yeah, do do some good. So, yes, thank you.
Chrisy:I'm trying to Google that to see what that was called, you know the other thing with St Patrick's Day is, too, I've heard horror stories from people where that is usually. I mean there are times people have gotten like physically hurt. I mean these celebrations, more than anything. They get out of control. Yeah, they do, and people drink a lot, a lot. You know, people get knocked unconscious and get in fights and yeah, More so than other drinking days of the year yeah, it happens.
Kerry:Yeah, I mean so. It is called the saint baldrick's foundation and it is a volunteer-powered childhood cancer charity that raises money for research through shaving head events and that's often held on saint patrick's day I am totally on board with that.
Chrisy:Let's talk real quick, too, about the food.
DJ Nick:Oh yeah.
Chrisy:Just like everything else with us that interests us, with dysfunction Food and movies. The food that we were told we had to eat, or the food you can't eat today because we don't know why.
Kerry:Just don't eat it. Don't eat meat on Fridays it's Lent, but but there's a big but it.
Chrisy:Don't eat meat on fridays, it's lent, but. But there's a big but when the guy, the pope, he'll give you special dispensation if you're irish. I don't eat the corned beef and the lucky charms, no, just the corned beef, and I don't like corned beef. I don't understand it. Uh-huh, I think it's like lunch meat, isn't it? I don't know. I never met a beef that was corned. Is that a special cow?
Kerry:it's a or is it pork?
Chrisy:corny cow, I don't, even I'm not a farm person.
Kerry:Yeah, I don't know if that's pig or cow I don't know, oh, gary doesn't know. I don't know what's corned beef, but people love it.
Chrisy:On saint patrick's day.
Kerry:Well, the only corned beef I really like is a Reuben sandwich.
Chrisy:But that's about the only way I live. Who's Reuben? That sounds Russian, doesn't it have Russian dressing on it?
Kerry:Which is Thousand Island, Thousand Island dressing yeah.
Chrisy:Yeah, so we really got confused with all this stuff. When we came over here, what was I?
Kerry:supposed to Google. I totally forgot what we were Googling.
DJ Nick:What is corned beef? Corned beef, bully beef or salted beef in some Commonwealth countries is a salt cured brisket of beef.
Kerry:Oh, it's salt, it's cow, but it's how it's made, cured Okay.
Chrisy:Of course. Did anybody hear about this being a carcinogen? Now, with this meat Bacon you might as well smoke a pack of cigarettes If you're going to eat bacon. It's a carcinogen, just the same.
Kerry:I did not know that.
Chrisy:Yeah, I don't smoke anymore, but I still eat that damn bacon.
Kerry:Yeah, I do like meat bacon, yeah, but see also the whole sauerkraut and kielbasa thing too comes back up on St Patrick's Day.
Chrisy:Well, that's usually what I'm like. Look, I won't do the corned beef, but I'll.
Kerry:I'll revisit. As you know, I love the, the sauerkraut and the uh. You know how I feel about that, I know. I know I like the uh reuben sandwich that has the corned beef with just a little bit of sauerkraut, not a whole lot, and not like your kind of sauerkraut where you're like don't rinse, rinse it, don't drain it, whatever you want it.
Chrisy:Well, the first word in the title of the food is sour. I know it's not sweet kraut. What the hell's that Sweet kraut? You got some sweet kraut. I don't want the sour, but I'll have some sweet kraut if you have it. No, we do not. What's on the Reuben sandwich Is the Swiss?
Kerry:cheese, corned beef, sauerkraut, fried bread.
Chrisy:Russian dressing Swiss, irish, russian. There's three nationalities on that sandwich and I don't know if the Swiss and the Russians want to be pulled into it. Did we clear that with them, or the Pope, or whatever? Yeah, why is the Pope giving people if St Patrick's Day falls during Lent, on a Friday? It's like this happens every once in a seven years. Is that how long? Is that how the calendar works? What if it's a leap year?
Chrisy:well then it screws, everything up because there's 29 days or not. Is there 27 days sometimes in february, or we just go to 29. They don't subtract to make it even chrissy. No, okay remember that.
Kerry:Remember that saying 30 days has November, april, june and September. All the rest of 31, except for February.
Chrisy:No, what the hell.
Kerry:Do you miss that day in school too, did they?
Chrisy:say that to you. Yeah, that's how you remember the days. Oh, come on, you can't remember how many days. I mean. February is the only one that screws me up. Everything else is planted.
Kerry:Well, yeah, because you think it's 27.
Chrisy:I don't know, I'm just like it's over. Just let this month be over.
Kerry:Yes, it is over. Now we're into March. I know this is a long month, I know In like a lion and out like a lamb. In like a lion, out like a yes, that's correct. Mean it's because of our stupid weather. Obviously that was made in Ohio.
Chrisy:They're not saying that in Hawaii.
Kerry:I don't think so Lucky.
Chrisy:I know they don't have any good sayings where the weather's cooperative. You really want to have character. You grew up in Ohio.
DJ Nick:We're from in.
Kerry:Ohio, northeast Ohio. This is true.
Chrisy:Corned beef lots of nashed alloys in there Getting dispensation from the pope. If it falls in during lent, die the river green kill all the fish.
Kerry:Yeah, get food grade oil everybody. I work for an oil company self-promoting. I didn't realize you dealt with that kind of oil. I thought you just dealt with oil for cars no, there's all kinds of oil.
Chrisy:It's wonderful, it's a beautiful product and we need suntan oil, no, but the type of oil that I deal with, yeah, probably goes into helping make that. Oh well, there you go.
Kerry:Yeah, all right, well, yeah, so parades, horrible weather. Yeah, I think we pretty much covered all the wonderful things about saint patrick's day this weekend no, come on, there's got to be something else I don't know green green saint patrick's day did you ever date an irish gentleman?
Chrisy:well, I think I'm married to part irish he's part irish but even like because of the school we went to, there was a lot of irish families that went through school yeah, but I was only dating that one oh, that's right no, I really yeah.
Kerry:No, I don't know. Can't say that I think that my current husband is the only most irish I've dated. Right, I dated a guy who is irish yeah, yeah, once did you date him during saint patrick's day. Were you together during saint patrick?
Chrisy:no, he was a public school guy oh I don't even know. Yeah, I'm pretty sure he was irish. I don't know. We didn't talk about it. You weren't together that long. No, it was a short. It was a short, uh relationship, yeah, no, uh, the irish thing is wonderful and the irish people are very devoted to being irish, I'm guessing, probably just the same as italians are devoted to being italian.
Kerry:And the only thing I I think that it would be lovely to go to, to ireland and scotland and all those places because of all the castles. But have you ever heard of that where they go? Kiss that bwarnie stone on that one castle have you ever seen this?
Chrisy:oh, I have heard you brought this up. Really, yeah, I've heard of this Is that for real.
Kerry:Yes, like I've actually like known people that have done it and like you got to like lay on your back on the top and then you kiss this, is this a Catholic religion thing?
Chrisy:I don't know Well what's it supposed to do.
Kerry:I don't know, it's luck or whatever, but what gets me is it's like the whole germaphobe thing in me freaks out, because I share in that terrible wine that you like. That's what I was thinking about. That it's just like the chalice thing. I'm like how many people? And do they still do that post COVID? I don't know.
DJ Nick:I don't know.
Kerry:We'll have to. Okay, we need audience in Ireland to listen to our show so they can give us all the facts on the Barney stone and pre-covid.
Chrisy:We don't want to say too much about it, because we want to know more and we're trying, oh oh, dj next moving in.
DJ Nick:He's done some googling, so people kiss the blarney stone in ireland because of an irish legend that says it gives the kisser the gift of gap.
Chrisy:well, you, you, you don't want me anywhere near that Blarney stuff? Oh, Blarney.
DJ Nick:I don't think either of you need the gift.
Chrisy:No, we don't. It doesn't give you luck, it gives you the gift of so there's a bunch of quiet people which you want to get me started on them. Quiet people.
Kerry:That'll be another episode.
Chrisy:Yeah, but they're all over there lined up. Oh, I hope I can get the gift of gab.
DJ Nick:What the hell is that? The gift is said to make the kisser more eloquent and persuasive.
Chrisy:Well, I might need some eloquence, yeah, yeah, yeah, or some polishing or charm school, but you might get a side of COVID with that eloquence.
Kerry:If you kiss the stone now, yeah, or bird flu or whatever disease of the moment we're in right now you ever get the one thing with the.
Chrisy:This is a Catholic thing. The statue that winks at you, I think it's supposed to be.
Kerry:Mary Winks, or bleeds blood. Wait, dj's Nick's dying to add something here.
DJ Nick:They do wipe off the stone between kisses.
Chrisy:Oh well, that's good to know, Well, geologically, that stone's going to get worn out Erosion it's going to get worn out Erosion it's down to a pebble. Now, how many times do they wipe that off? What do they use to wipe it off? Just a rag ain't going to clean it. You need disinfectant and that's going to have a chemical reaction with that stone. It's going to deteriorate. Oh my God, it's in your mouth, it's just everywhere.
Kerry:Clearly Christy Wentz's just everywhere. Clearly christy went to geology class.
DJ Nick:Even before the pandemic, staff clean the stone, frequently disinfecting frequently, that's not saying every person who's watching you put?
Kerry:your lips right on it oh well, the blarney.
Chrisy:They do, the people of blarney. Is that an area in Ireland? Where'd that word come?
Kerry:from. It's a castle. Blarney is a castle, a castle.
Chrisy:Yeah, the Blarney Castle, oh my gosh, I love it. Ireland, irish people, I love, I love you people. I love Killian, so I love you. Thank you for giving us Killian.
Kerry:Oh, my Well another roller, the beer, by the way the actual individual.
Chrisy:I don't like the beer.
DJ Nick:Yeah, so they even make that. Still Killian's Red. I don't even know if you can get that. I don't know.
