Pickleball in prison , really . Pickleball in

prison , really . You know what ? I wonder if these prisoners have podcasts too . They probably have access to podcast equipment and do podcasts as well . I was just thinking when I heard that pickleball in prison , I thought , well , and podcast , get it at the three Ps . Pickleball prison podcast , yeah , why not ? Oh my gosh , you remember him .

Peterson got beat up by a fellow inmate during prison yard pickleball match on sunday , according to a report . Now I understand pickleball is very serious , but , come on , I don't play it , I don't know .

Peterson , 52 , was playing a game of pickleball at mule creek State Prison in California when another prisoner took exception to the convicted murderer's playing style and served him up a butt .

Whooping from TMZ , the inmate was reportedly set off by Peterson smashing the ball directly at his body during the match and aired his grievances in the form of hooks and jabs . Oh , these people that write these articles . Though he suffered injuries , he did not need to go to the hospital .

Peterson was convicted , if you remember , in 2004 of killing his eight-month pregnant wife , eight months pregnant wife Lacey , who vanished on Christmas Eve in 2002 . I'm sure there are all kinds of documentaries about this . I think there was one recently being promoted . I need to go watch that .

I remember following this case in the court when it was on TV and everything . It was quite stunning . Lacey was initially you know , I'm not going to finish reading that . You know the deal . But come on pickleball . You're playing pickleball in prison . What kind of prison is that ? What kind of prison is that ? Convicted murderer can go play pickleball ?

Oh my gosh , I don't understand . I don't understand at all . All right , next podcast topic is Canada's Prime Minister elect , mark Carney , looks chummy with Epstein accomplice , ghislaine Maxwell in newly resurfaced

pics . Uh-oh , canada's incoming Prime Minister , mark Carney , has some photos with Jeffrey Epstein's longtime accomplice , ghislaine Maxwell , that he'd rather you not see . Opponents are circulating the 2013 photos , which show Carney smiling alongside Maxwell , who was convicted of sex trafficking in 2021 .

Now what kind of evidence did they have against her , where they charged her and tried her and put her away in prison ? Opponents are certain he said that Carney's camp says that the images are nothing more than a political ploy ahead of the Canadian federal election later this year . But you were in pictures with her , so were you ?

Were you chummy with her or not ? Explain that . Or you just happen to be standing next to her . In the photos , the 59 year old was joined by his wife and another man , all of whom appeared friendly with Maxwell as they laughed and gestured at the stage .

The images first recirculated online in January after Carney , a former governor of the central banks of both Canada and the UK , announced his bid to replace outgoing Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau . They got a fresh airing after he was picked to lead the Liberal Party on Sunday and became the next prime minister .

But Carney's camp insists there's nothing to see in the photos , claiming he and Maxwell barely know each other . Okay , whatever . Okay , so there's more . Should I keep reading ? All right , I'll keep reading a little bit . Carney's connection to Maxwell was extremely removed , the source said , explaining she went to high school with his sister-in-law .

They have bumped into each other in public settings , the course of they are not friends . The photos were taken after Epstein spent 13 months in jail in 2008 for procuring a child for prostitution . Oh interesting , the photos were just the latest of Maxwell and Epstein . The world leaders and high-profile players emerge .

Yeah Well , president Trump has appeared chummy with Epstein in numerous photos and videos , though he says he later banned the pedophile financier form his club . Former President Bill Clinton , prince Andrew and the likes of Bill gates are known to have had friendships . All right , so there you go . You can go finish reading that . Blah , blah , blah . All right .

So the next one . We're going to leave with a comical , hopefully slant , because I mean I needed some humor too . I need some light reading here . Speaking of light reading my bathroom divorce saved my marriage . My husband is disgusting , but I now have toilet nirvana . Why would you call your husband disgusting ? All right , here we go . You're disgusting . That's how

it starts . That was the bathroom battle cry of Debbie Wiener , whose home was the scene of endless toilet turmoil when she and her husband shared a bathroom . Wiener , a retired interior designer , decided last year that it was time to end the tyranny of the toilet and opt for a bathroom divorce .

It's not unlike a sleep divorce , in which couples have their own dedicated spaces for slumber to stay off each other's nerves . But with a bathroom divorce . Other functions are at hand . Look , I hate when they call it divorce . Divorce is serious . Let's not just like when they people call the pictures of food food porn . I can't stand that .

It just my last nerve . This is not a divorce , this is just an option for you to do . Stop calling it a divorce and making divorce sound . It's so cute and funny . It's not all right . Here we go moving . I know , I know , I know I'm being a little too serious . As you get older , your gastrointestinal needs change .

Weiner said my husband's habits didn't age well . One toilet was not cutting it . Oh my gosh . Well , maybe he ought to change what he's eating . Maybe that would help . Weiner , 66 , who doesn't poo-poo toilet talk , hated her bathroom ever since she and her husband , jim Weiner , 67 , bought their house on Maryland's eastern shore .

So the way this house is built is apparently weird . You have to walk through the bathroom to get to the bedroom . Why somebody would build a house like that , I don't know . That was in 2011 , when their two sons were teenagers . They lived , although miserably , with a bathroom connected to the primary bedroom on the ground floor . Its layout was bizarre .

Someone actually had to walk through the bathroom to reach the bedroom If you are sitting on the toilet . And someone wanted to go to the bedroom , they were going to pass you . Weiner said it was kind of a joke , oh my gosh . Anyway , she decided to split , I guess , redesign the bathroom . Now they have their own bathrooms . Well , good for you .

It is actually quite a long article and they have pictures of the bathroom . Her husband is very tall , so sure he has a toilet that's quite tall for him . So you can go finish reading that . But my question is you know people have separate bedrooms . Now she's having a separate bathroom . I'm lucky I do not have that problem at all whatsoever .

My husband is not disgusting and on top of that he cleans the house . You know , since he's been retired he stays at home . He cooks , cleans , does the laundry , does the grocery shopping . He's always cooked and done the grocery shopping , but now he's added the cleaning to his chores and that's something that he decided to do himself .

I didn't ask him , he just took it upon himself to do it . So yeah , so do you guys have separate bathrooms ? That is not the question of the day . The question of the day is provided by Mr Shons and since it's Lent , he wants to know during Lent , have you ? Let me go read his question per word , word for word , because I don't want to mess it up .

Okay , here we go . If you practice Lent ,

what did you give up or commit to doing ? That is his question of the day . Now , I am a bad Catholic , mr Shons . I've been a bad Catholic for quite some time . I've stopped going to Mass several years ago , before the gent and I even got married , probably .

So it's been a long time since I've been to confession , practice , any kind of mass practices or anything . I'm terrible , I know I'm awful . Shame on me . Now I'm listening to podcasts in a year on my drive into work . It's taking me longer than a year . I'm on day 227 . I should be , and I started it , gosh , last year .

I started it this time last year and actually I started it in April . I think it was in April , early April , I started it . So I'm only on day 227 . I don't know how we're going to finish it all , because we're still talking about the Old Testament .

We're talking about Ezekiel or one of the prophets I don't know which one it is , I forget prophets or ger . I don't know which one it is , I forget . But he's talking about how , how Egypt used to be like the , the powerful land , and with the pharaohs and stuff . And I got to thinking what happened ?

How come they don't call the leader of Egypt a pharaoh anymore ? I don't know , maybe I'll get to that , I don't know . Look , I'm a newbie , all right , I'm going to stop right there . I've not done anything for Lent . Shame on me . I don't know . Look , I'm a newbie , all right , I'm going to stop right there . I've not

done anything for Lent . Shame on me . I used to . I used to try . I used to attempt it a long , you know long time ago . Um , but I just don't anymore . Okay , I gotta go . Thanks for listening . Y'all love y'all .
