Like, yeah, she's always been open, she's always 47 00:02:12,081 --> 00:02:13,521 Speaker 2: been in front of the camera. She's always got a 48 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,321 Speaker 2: microphone in her hand. She's always been loud, and we've 49 00:02:15,361 --> 00:02:18,521 Speaker 2: always encouraged her to be all of herself. And she 50 00:02:18,601 --> 00:02:21,841 Speaker 2: got really bullied in school, but when she go home, 51 00:02:21,881 --> 00:02:23,481 Speaker 2: she was just free to be herself.

It's very cool. 57 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,161 Speaker 3: I think it was cool to watch the documentary and 58 00:02:38,201 --> 00:02:39,721 Speaker 3: watch the way that she kind of grew up. Like 59 00:02:39,761 --> 00:02:42,161 Speaker 3: what you said, she was kind of made for the camera, 60 00:02:42,281 --> 00:02:45,361 Speaker 3: Like she was always directing and putting these little skits together, 61 00:02:45,641 --> 00:02:47,921 Speaker 3: and like dancing with her friends, and like sitting down 62 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,401 Speaker 3: in the basement where like her playroom was, and like 63 00:02:50,441 --> 00:02:52,761 Speaker 3: putting on all these kids and dressing up with her girlfriends. 64 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,441 Speaker 3: And like her best friend now, who she used to 65 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 3: do that with when she was younger.

She's her producer now, yes, which is such 67 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,721 Speaker 3: a cool thing to be able to experience after like 68 00:03:02,121 --> 00:03:04,801 Speaker 3: fifteen years or twenty years of friendship, to still be 69 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,521 Speaker 3: so plugged in, to like do what they were doing 70 00:03:06,561 --> 00:03:08,921 Speaker 3: when they were little, but now on such a larger scale. 71 00:03:09,361 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: It's so cool. It really is cool. 72 00:03:12,001 --> 00:03:14,401 Speaker 2: It was really inspiring for us because there has been 73 00:03:14,561 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 2: some episodes that we have recorded and then not gone 74 00:03:17,561 --> 00:03:21,161 Speaker 2: ahead with them because of fear, fear of judgment, fear 75 00:03:21,201 --> 00:03:24,201 Speaker 2: of being canceled, fear of what people think of us, 76 00:03:24,281 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: fear of being put into a box, fear of being 77 00:03:26,761 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 2: known for that one particular podcast episode. We had a conversation, hey, 78 00:03:30,841 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 2: because even you as a coach, you're like, oh, I 79 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: don't want to be known for that. Or no, you said, 80 00:03:34,641 --> 00:03:37,281 Speaker 2: I'm worried if we talk about this, it'll make other 81 00:03:37,321 --> 00:03:39,521 Speaker 2: guests not want to come on our podcasts. Yes, And 82 00:03:39,521 --> 00:03:41,561 Speaker 2: then we watched this, you were like, oh, that kind 83 00:03:41,561 --> 00:03:42,441 Speaker 2: of squashed that story. 84 00:03:42,481 --> 00:03:44,201 Speaker 1: Honestly, because she literally. 85 00:03:43,841 --> 00:03:45,921 Speaker 2: Had anyone and everyone that you can think of goes 86 00:03:45,921 --> 00:03:48,521 Speaker 2: on her podcast and they do not hesitate no from 87 00:03:48,561 --> 00:03:50,881 Speaker 2: anything she's talking about.

Everyone just wants to be on her 89 00:03:52,721 --> 00:03:55,521 Speaker 2: podcast to have these authentic conversations where they can be 90 00:03:55,601 --> 00:03:58,521 Speaker 2: their full selves. And I think that was really inspiring. 91 00:03:58,641 --> 00:04:01,121 Speaker 3: It was really cool actually because the content that she 92 00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:03,081 Speaker 3: used to post, which was like like what you mentioned 93 00:04:03,161 --> 00:04:07,481 Speaker 3: talking about Dixon, like the std sdis sdis and STDs 94 00:04:07,481 --> 00:04:07,681 Speaker 3: that she. 95 00:04:07,721 --> 00:04:09,201 Speaker 1: Caught, you know, all the ones that she got. 96 00:04:09,241 --> 00:04:11,441 Speaker 3: You know, she'd jump on a stage and like scream 97 00:04:11,521 --> 00:04:13,481 Speaker 3: out like you know, things that happened, you know, back 98 00:04:13,481 --> 00:04:16,081 Speaker 3: when she was in school or whatever she's doing with 99 00:04:16,161 --> 00:04:18,321 Speaker 3: boys and like all the things.

She knew 261 00:10:35,081 --> 00:10:37,441 Speaker 3: it was going to spark chaos. Yes, she knew it 262 00:10:37,481 --> 00:10:40,721 Speaker 3: was going to cause a controversy, so she did that intentionally. 263 00:10:40,801 --> 00:10:43,161 Speaker 3: She even cover member, Yes, the cover photo that when 264 00:10:43,161 --> 00:10:45,081 Speaker 3: she was still doing the podcast with that other girl, 265 00:10:45,281 --> 00:10:47,121 Speaker 3: her friends that they were doing it with, she like 266 00:10:47,321 --> 00:10:50,001 Speaker 3: intentionally made them look like blow up dolls so that 267 00:10:50,041 --> 00:10:53,921 Speaker 3: she would spark yeah and get more clicks.

Yeah, 297 00:11:59,001 --> 00:12:01,121 Speaker 3: the first one was a sixty million dollar deal. So 298 00:12:01,161 --> 00:12:02,881 Speaker 3: I think the first three years of her podcast, she 299 00:12:02,881 --> 00:12:06,041 Speaker 3: said she made like seventy K with her co host 300 00:12:06,441 --> 00:12:09,361 Speaker 3: with her podcast host over three years, and then after 301 00:12:09,401 --> 00:12:11,281 Speaker 3: that it went to like a sixty million dollar deal, 302 00:12:11,281 --> 00:12:12,801 Speaker 3: and the next one after that was one hundred and 303 00:12:12,841 --> 00:12:14,241 Speaker 3: twenty five million. 304 00:12:14,001 --> 00:12:18,361 Speaker 1: US for like a couple of year deal.

Now she's been on tour, she has merch 310 00:12:30,801 --> 00:12:32,281 Speaker 2: Like she's not just dipping her toes in one No 311 00:12:32,641 --> 00:12:35,681 Speaker 2: One part of the business. Yes, she's making bank on 312 00:12:35,721 --> 00:12:36,721 Speaker 2: everything that she touches. 313 00:12:36,841 --> 00:12:39,721 Speaker 3: I remember in the documentary she talks about the merchandise. Yes, 314 00:12:39,721 --> 00:12:41,321 Speaker 3: and when she did the merchandise, I think they made 315 00:12:41,401 --> 00:12:43,481 Speaker 3: like millions of dollars just off the merchandise alone. 316 00:12:43,521 --> 00:12:46,321 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised. That's so cool, so freaking cool. 317 00:12:46,561 --> 00:12:48,401 Speaker 2: And the last thing I want to talk about too, 318 00:12:48,561 --> 00:12:52,161 Speaker 2: was I really loved how supportive her partner is. It's 319 00:12:52,201 --> 00:12:53,801 Speaker 2: like he doesn't care what she does, what she says. 320 00:12:53,841 --> 00:12:55,761 Speaker 2: She literally got on stage, was like I think it 321 00:12:55,801 --> 00:12:56,361 Speaker 2: was in Chicago. 322 00:12:56,481 --> 00:12:59,001 Speaker 1: Hello, Chicago, this is the exact town I got my 323 00:12:59,081 --> 00:13:03,281 Speaker 1: first STD.
