We saw 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:07.800 you play pickleball and you're flying around the court. We 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.480 see you walk in you you're swearing at Gary, but 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.880 you make it fun. I'm talking about out of the 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.440 out of the limo. Out of the limo is I 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:20.880 have to ask you swearing does that help you calm 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:22.399 your nerves? Because it does help me. 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:28.080 Well, since Mike stepping out of a Limo No, but 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:30.280 before that, yes, okay. 0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:32.200 Okay, what changed? 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:35.440 Oh, I don't know. I you know, what I'm finding 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:39.679 out is that the younger generation. You know, my oldest 0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.280 is fifty, but that's a young generation for me, and 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:48.800 young folks loved my Limo exit folks more my generation 0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:54.080 Mike demographic were a little skeptical about that. So that 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.160 seems to be the feedback I'm getting. 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:59.480 Well, you know what, there's actually scientific SETI is that 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:04.520 prove that swearing has like an effect on the brain, 0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.480 like some sort of like chemical release or release of energy. 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.679 That is I'm serious, not I'm not just liken't me 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:11.359 like I'm crazy. 0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:15.760 There's something that's proven that like swearing releases I don't 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.200 know what it is exactly, but like endorphins are something 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:21.320 that like actually helps you calm down, or like it 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:24.320 provides like a release of energy that helps you calm down. 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:26.280 That's why people like swear when they like stub their 0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:29.360 toe or something, or like they're frustrated. There's like an 0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.520 actual reason for it, so you can tell you can 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:32.160 tell your friends that. 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.959 Oh and that's a good one, thank you, Serena. However, 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.000 is that you know there are a lot of swear 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.880 words out there, and the AF isn't necessarily America's choice 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:43.520 or older America's choice. 0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:48.600 Okay, okay, so maybe if it was a different swear word. 0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:50.200 Yeah, well that's okay. 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:53.880 I feel like you came out and you you surprise people. 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:55.359 Whether it was a good way or a bad way, 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:58.400 you got their attention. You definitely got Gary's attention because 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:01.800 we've seen you through this journey and that's all that matters. 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:01.840 You know. 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.160 You know, here's the thing. I look like a school 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:08.360 teacher ish and a librarian, so people don't expect me 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:11.640 to spew a word like that. So it has its 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.760 shock value, and I guess it worked. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:19.280 It definitely it worked. We we know. I've heard you're 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:22.040 a you're a big football fan. Do you did you 0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:27.800 happen to see Stephen A.

You know, and in 0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:15.360 the past there have been a lot of quarterback tight 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:20.360 end relationships that have made me feel good about the sport. 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:22.479 You know that the connection they have. 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:26.040 How do you feel about Travis Kelsey dating Taylor Sweft? 0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:26.279 I do. 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.360 That's what's running minimama. 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:33.720 I think, you know, it's fun.

I you know, America is always looking 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:43.560 for love and romance, and and when you've got two 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:47.400 heroes like that, one hero and one hero, you know, 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.520 it makes for good feeling. 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:53.919 So, yeah, what were you married to an NFL player 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:57.040 at one point in your life? I was, Okay, who. 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:03.200 His name is Lindsay Mason. Okay, a left tackle for 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:04.200 the Oakland Raiders. 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.440 Okay, wow, how did you to meet? 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:13.000 We actually met at a racquetball court and he and 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:17.360 some of his co workers were playing slash practicing and 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.719 I was playing and somehow we bumped into each other 0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:23.960 in the corridor and started chatting. And I'll tell you 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.960 how I got hooked on this game because he invited 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.159 me to watch him at a game. And I knew 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:32.960 a little something about football, you know what I learned 0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:38.160 in high school going to games and cheerleading. But so 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.320 invited me to a game, and then after the game, 0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:42.520 I said, tell me what you do out there? What 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:46.560 is your role? And he started explaining to me he's 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:50.479 a tackle, an offensive tackle. That means that he does 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:54.240 pass protection and run blocking. So then I said, okay, 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:58.080 explain that. And little by little, I was getting tutorials 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.320 on Monday nights when he wasn't working. And back then 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:05.880 they only had Sunday and Monday night football, so that 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.279 was my tutorial time. And I got all the x's 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:12.640 and o's and I was fascinated. I just grabbed me 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.000 and there was always something to learn. Even to this day, 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:18.280 there is something to learn about this game that I 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:21.400 didn't know the game before, and I don't know. My 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.480 mind just sucks it up. The last thing I googled 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:30.080 here was the the NFL rule changes changes for this season. Yeah, 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:32.000 so there's. 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.640 Some always changing something.

Yeah. 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:44.919 I feel like my issue getting into football is that 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.360 I just don't understand what's happening most of the time. 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.599 So it's so I need to come watch it with you, 0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:50.040 and you can. 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:54.440 Say, if you had some instruction, you might get engaged, 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.920 you might really understand.

Doesn't 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:22.360 mean I've had athleticism, but I've always had that desire 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.280 to to play some kind of sport, and I used 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:31.560 to play racketball, so kind of familiarity with the walls, 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:37.880 of course, but so I'm competitive sports wise, so and 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:41.000 so the pickleball was Yeah, I was probably the only 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:44.880 one flying around because I wanted to win that dog 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:48.000 on contest. I really did. 0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:52.120 What's your what's your nightcare routine? 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:57.160 Okay, you know, I just wash up, take the day off, 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:01.200 and I have a moisturizer that I use. You know, 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.200 I think, here, you guys, let me tell you what 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:07.800 I think is the reason that my skin responds so 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:11.800 well to Mother nature and almost one. I don't drink alcohol. 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.040 Now that's going to turn a lot of people off. 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.920 Doesn't mean you can't drink alcohol. I never I think 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.360 it's a wholesome thing for people to do, but I 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:22.680 never acquired the taste. But I think in the long 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:27.439 run it has made a difference. I don't know. I 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:31.400 don't live in the sun. You know. I'm one of 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.600 those ladies that's in the shade. If I'm out in 0:12:34.640 --> 0:12:37.200 the sun and the heat, I'll find shade because I 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:42.000 know that sun is damaging. And I also am always 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:46.400 wearing an SPF fifty or higher. Just you know, and 0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:50.360 I'm bother words, I'm fighting, mister son, I really am. 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:54.280 And then other than that, my mom looked young when 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.800 she was my well, she didn't live to my age, 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.000 but when she was an older lady, when she was 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:02.520 in her golden year, she she looked younger. I thought 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:06.800 she did. And so I'm guessing that's it. I get. 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.160 I do have an aesthetician and she kind of gives 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.000 me some treatments on my skin. You know, I see 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:16.120 her walk every three months. But you know, nothing miraculous, 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:17.480 you guys, It's just it's just. 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:19.880 Sondra. 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:25.040 I wear sunscreen every day and I'm brown, so obviously 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:28.280 don't really burn. It's just to protect my skin. I 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.880 tell Joe he's Joe never wears sunscreen. I'm rearing senstry 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:33.599 right now. I'm in the house. I have sunscreen on 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:38.040 every single morning. Joe is a white man, and he 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.760 could use the sunscreen because his cheeks get burnt, and 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:42.959 he never ever wears it because he likes to get tan. 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:46.000 And I always tell him he's so big on all 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.200 of this stuff for anti aging in terms of yeah, 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:52.080 he knows he has good skincare, but he's like into 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:56.360 cold plunges and you know, fasting and sunlight in the 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:57.559 mornings and all of this stuff. 0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:00.520 And I'm like, but what you're missing is the sun screen. 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:02.760 I love to get a little I love, I love, 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:04.680 I love. 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:10.720 That's fine, Joe for now, because you're cutie. But you 0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:14.120 two are seventy five or whatever age. You know, Serena 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:16.600 is gonna be hot and you're gonna be not hot. 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:28.440 I'm just saying, Talo, Sandra, how about how about exercise, Sondra? 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:29.680 Do you exercise regularly? 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.160 I do. I have Silver Sneakers classes twice a week, 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:35.840 and then at home here I have a treadmill. And 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:39.600 so when I'm watching my other love, which is Wheel 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:41.480 of Fortune, I'm on the treadmill. 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.240 You've been on Wheel of Fortune, and. 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:48.760 I've been hooked. I've been hooked for well, they've been 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:52.120 on for forty forty one. Season's just about and I 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:54.600 was hooked from day one, just like I was hooked 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.400 on football, fascinated with it. 0:14:56.480 --> 0:15:01.120 And so my my mother's really goes. She's like every 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.480 time Wheel of Fortune she guesses it immediately. Did you 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:05.840 how far did you go? Did you win? 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.520 I won a little over thirty one. Oh my gosh, 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.600 and that was in nineteen eighty eight. That was a 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:12.440 lot of money back. 0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:15.600 Yeah, So what did you enjoy more? Wheel of Fortune 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:16.840 or being on the Golden Bachelor? 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.360 You know, I think that what I call the GB. 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:23.520 I think the GB because more you know, meeting women 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:26.680 and the whole living away from home. 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:27.840 Yeah, and. 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:34.480 You know, just being a longer, more intense process. The 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:38.760 Wheel was well several years of being focused and being 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.080 a student, but one day of shoot. 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:44.080 So you know a little bit of a shorter adventure. 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:49.360 Yeah. I've also I was also on the the newlyweb 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:50.960 game a gazillion years ago. 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:56.800 Okay, Wowsadra is an experienced reality TV contested. 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.720 Yes, there's been so many gaps between that. Who knows, 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:04.160 maybe another ten fifteen years I'll be on another game show. 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:06.720 Or so is there is there is there a game 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:08.920 show that you would love to do or a reality 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:10.680 show that you watch and go, oh that would be 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:11.800 that would be a lot of fun. 0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:14.400 Yes, I would love to go on the Wheel of 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:16.360 Fortune again. And I would love to go on this 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:18.360 Golden Bachelorette. 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:25.400 I don't know, Well, they're back to back, aren't they live? 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:26.040 Like is it? 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.920 Wheel of Fortune is on because I feel like whenever 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:30.760 we used to watch the show live, we would catch 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:32.640 the end of Wheel of Fortune. So you can go 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:35.360 do Wheel of Fortune and it could be Sondra's episode, 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:37.920 and then the next can be the premiere of Sondra's 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:39.320 season of The Golden Baucherrett. 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:39.760 I feel like. 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:45.240 But in my market, there there's a half an hour between, 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:48.960 and that's fine. That gives me time to prep okay 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:50.480 for watching the GB. 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:54.080 So yes, refresh your mocktail, get a snack, and then 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:54.640 settle in. 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:58.200 And you you live, you live in Atlanta. 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:01.920 I live in one of the those communities in it.

I moved back here about twenty two 0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:16.639 years ago. 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:20.119 Okay, yeah, do you miss San Francisco. 0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:25.040 I visit.

And yeah, and my my children live in 0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:31.920 southern cows so and I but I have friends in 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:35.800 the Bay Area, so I have reason to go and visit. Obviously, 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:39.800 college mates, you know, Yeah, my heart is still there. 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:40.919 Is that what you're thinking? 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:43.320 Yeah, that's what. That's what. That's what I was. 0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:46.400 I left part of it there, your heart in San Francisco. 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.919 Okay, so let's let's go a little bit.

So you get out 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:57.719 of the limo, you make Gary laugh. You know, it's 0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:03.680 your first time on the Bachelor, at the Bachelor. What 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:06.240 are your thoughts on Gary when you first meet him? 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:10.360 Well, he looked very much like he did on Good 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:13.520 Morning America when they introduced him on July seventeenth. You see, 0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:18.439 I remember that and just in real life, and of 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:22.439 course my hands were probably shaking, and but it was, 0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:28.720 you know, the whole the whole process was intriguing to me. 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:32.160 And of course Gary was too. He was the object 0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:35.800 there and and he's a good. 0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:39.040 Looking gent Is he your typical type? Like do you 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:39.720 have a type? 0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:44.199 Well, in some respects, yeah, I like tall men, I 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:50.200 like facial hair. I like men who have family, were 0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:54.440 engaged with their families. I should say, an intelligent man, 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:55.800 which he certainly seemed to be. 0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:01.720 He definitely can't pay he definitely can't play offensive line 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.880 for the for the Los Angeles or Las Vegas raiders 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:05.400 will tell you. 0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:09.560 That that is correct, but you know millions of men can't, 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.080 so that is true. 0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:17.879 It's true. So do you feel did you have a 0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:22.240 connection with Gary and when did you first feel that? 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:27.720 Oh? Boy, yes, of course there was a connection. Now 0:19:27.760 --> 0:19:31.520 I describe it as love, of course. But our our 0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:38.119 chats were feeling fulfilling, and you know, he was learning 0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:40.280 about me and I was learning about him. Of course, 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:42.880 I don't know if I remember exactly when it clicked. 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.320 I don't think Limo night because there was so much 0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:51.320 going on with the whole Zen thing and then the bug. 0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:55.000 Maybe you remember the bug. I didn't. I didn't really 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.639 get a chance to connect with him that evening, so 0:19:57.680 --> 0:19:59.760 it might have been our next chat together. I think 0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:04.560 that's that's probably. And looking into those what I call 0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:11.600 old blue eyes two point oh. 0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:11.119 Yeah, a lot of people have said he has really 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:12.800 really blue eyes. We have not had the pleasure of 0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:16.000 meeting Gary in person yet, but I'm intrigued to see 0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:17.080 these eyes in person. 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:20.120 Well, you know, in my generation, but in my mom's generation, 0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.320 I think Frank Sinatra was old blue eyes, and so 0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:27.600 that's why I called Gary blue eyes two point zho. 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.360 Oh, I like that.
