What is the main topic of this episode?
So turns out like there's a 2% chance you can get pregnant when you're breastfeeding and pumping.
What I was told completely wrong was that like women are most fertile right after they give birth. And so I was all excited. I thought we were going to get a second kid like right away.
I'd love to have like next have twins. Oh, I'd love it. Yeah. And then wrap it up with one or two. I just wish you could carry one. Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex. And you might be thinking to yourself, I thought we were rebranding. And we are, but we're not ready yet. So for now, Just Alex plus Harrison. We go. Hi, darling.
What is nanny guilt and how does it affect parents?
It's cracking.
I got a thing. So I've been going to Barry's subtle plug. And today, you know, the song by Luke Combs. Oh, my gosh. The thing about a beer's never let him down. A beer's never broken. Oh, a cold neck.
Yeah.
I was a long neck. Ice cold beer never broke my heart. That's what they played at the end. And like, I have been listening to that nonstop. That and then Spencer Pratt, who's single-handedly carrying TikTok right now. He – I went on his Instagram and I was watching his videos. He puts – Inya? No. I have no idea. Yeah, you do. Oh, my God. They're famous. The Orinacal Flow. The Orinacal Flow song. Like literally.
Why don't you sing it?
Everyone knows this. No? You guys don't know what I'm talking about? Orinacal Flow.
Are you going to play it?
Orinacal. Orinacal Flow. Inya. Inya songs. Well, play it. Okay. But like, well, I'm playing Echoes of the Rain right now. That's literally the song. No. Inya's really famous. Nobody knows.
Oh, I think I know it-ish. All right, where were we going with this?
Do you know this song? I need to know that everybody in the room knows this song. Yes? Harrison?
I need to see where it goes.
We see it, we see it, we see it.
I don't know if I know it.
You've never heard that song?
Why is managing screen time important for a 3-month-old?
I'm not sure. I couldn't tell, but the 15, 20 seconds you ran of it.
That's all you need for that song is like two seconds max. It's in every movie.
So then I know it.
Okay, it's a great movie. Anyway, so those have been my soundtracks of the day.
How old were you when you realized you didn't have a good voice?
You ready for this? Yeah. So when I was about 12, I desperately wanted to do Broadway shows. And the Vanessa Carlton song. If I could fall, I still can't sing it.
If I didn't know the first two songs, you really didn't know the third?
If I could. Something about walking a mile.
What are the implications of the U.S. buying Greenland?
Okay.
By Vanessa Carlton. From White Chicks. I don't think so. But I rehearsed it and I rehearsed it and I rehearsed it and I got up there to sing it. And I was backstage about to go on. And somebody told me in church, if you plug one ear and you sing, that's what you really sound like.
Okay.
And I remember I was backstage before I went on, and I did that, and I sang, and I thought, I'm truly a bad singer. And I got stage fright, and I didn't go on, and I didn't sing it. And so I was 13 when I realized that.
Did you cry?
No. Wow. But I was mad at myself because you know me, like – I, if I say I'm going to do something, I really like to do it. It's why I don't throw around that I'm going to run a marathon because then I'm going to end up having to run that marathon. Uh, so listen, it's still imprinted on my brain that I didn't get up on stage and sing. So yeah, I'm still mad at myself.
I feel like everyone has that moment where someone breaks it to you. I guess you learned yourself where someone breaks it to you. Can't sing. I remember mine was, I would always sing in my mom's car on my convertible. I'd always just be belting songs on 94.5 Zed FM. Because we called Zed Z in Canada. We don't have the letter Z in our alphabet. We call it Zed. Did you know that? You know Canada, we do different Z and Zed? no I had no idea okay uh and what's the point I thought I was a rock star wow and then I was up at Whistler at my friend John's house and somehow I must have been in I was definitely in elementary school and like I remember I sang and his older brother like was like you have such a shitty voice you're tone deaf and it was a very heartbreaking moment for me yeah
