1
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: Well bow, we are back.

2
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 2: We are ready to recap episode three of the inaugural

3
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 2: season of Dancing with the Stars. The next pro already

4
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 2: three episodes in.

5
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: It is getting spicy.

6
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: It is like getting spicy. They did not hold back

7
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: this episode. Speaking of spice, one of us made some

8
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 2: headlines from their takes last week, and don't I don't

9
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: love pointing out which one of us it was, but

10
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 2: I will say it was not the one of us

11
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 2: that came in.

12
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: Eighth place last season.

13
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: So what are you feeling when you wake up and

14
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,639
Speaker 2: see Valschmerkovsky headlines?

15
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 3: I got nervous, do you? I mean? I mean, yeah, listen,

16
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't want to hurt a people's feelings.

17
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: Yep.

18
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 3: So whether those are the feelings of the person I'm discussing,

19
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 3: or the family of the people, or the people that

20
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: love the person I'm discussing, you know, it's not I mean,

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: it's hard to say it's not personal because I'm literally

22
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 3: speaking about the person. But this is just my reflection.

23
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 3: You don't got to take it either. I'm not like

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 3: banging my chest saying that this is the truth. This

25
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 3: is what I see and in my from where I'm

26
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 3: standing there's you know, my perspective and what kind of

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 3: value I would want to give this person. Yes, you know,

28
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 3: I'm not here to knock anybody down. So when I

29
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 3: see it, I'm conflicted because I want to end I'm like,

30
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 3: I didn't want to ruffle those feathers. But on the

31
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 3: other end, I'm mom. You know, I'm happy people are listening,

32
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: tuning in and are excited to you know, broad in

33
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 3: their ballroom dance perspective, dancing to the star's perspective.

34
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: Well, I love that you stand on your business because

35
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: you know what is for the show, and you're not

36
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: saying anything that isn't something you would say to their face.

37
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 3: No, I would say, yeah, you would say it to

38
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 3: their face. Totally, totally. I mean, and if you can't,

39
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 3: you know, that's a very cowardly way of going about

40
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: sharing your thoughts about someone. All the thoughts that I

41
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 3: share publicly or thoughts that I would share privately to

42
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: that person. Now, certain private thoughts should stay private, but

43
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 3: this isn't one of those cases. This is a show

44
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: that's broadcast, it's millions of people right now, and this

45
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 3: is someone that's trying to win the position and the

46
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 3: opportunity to work alongside myself and other pros. Yeah. So yeah,

47
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 3: free game, baby.

48
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 1: That's right.

49
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: Also, anybody who listened to our show and then looks

50
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: at the headlines also knows they are also a lot

51
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: of clickbait.

52
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 3: No, totally, totally, and and that's the frustration. Yeah, and

53
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 3: I appreciate that for the most part, people took the

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 3: time to understand in the broader context and my delivery.

55
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 3: I just think it's important. You know, it's yes, of course,

56
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 3: it's what you say that's important. But how you say,

57
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 3: at what time you say, the effort that you put

58
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 3: into thoughtfully say it, I think also matters.

59
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: Yes.

60
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: Dancing with the Stars the next Pro Season one, episode three,

61
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: we open with a recap of episode two. For those

62
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: keeping score at home, Benji was eliminated, Robert our host

63
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: and judges Surely and Mark ballast enter and Robert gets

64
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 2: a wellness check from the contestants. Everyone agrees that it

65
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: has been a tough journey so far, and Mark reminds

66
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: them sometimes you have to be selfless to make your

67
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: celebrity look good. And that's some pretty good advice, right,

68
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: Well totally.

69
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: I mean that's the mantra of Bullram dance. As far

70
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: as you know, from the masculine side, we are taught,

71
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: if we are taught by good teachers from day one,

72
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 3: that our job is to present our partners, our ladies.

73
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: And you know, so much of the movement is inspired

74
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 3: by that philosophy, and I think I spoke on it

75
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: last week when I talk about the shadow position. Whenever

76
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 3: we have side by side choreography, the male is always

77
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 3: in shadow position. And because of that philosophy, not because

78
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 3: he's sacrificing anything, but just because these are the roles

79
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 3: that we are playing together here in this in this

80
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: team activity of bone dance. That's why I said what

81
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: I said about Benji and his role in the room.

82
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 3: But that doesn't mean that he couldn't shine in that style.

83
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: Of course he could, but that wouldn't be the style

84
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: that strategically he shined the brightest thing. That's so it's

85
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 3: all relative. These are all excellent dancers, but it's how

86
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: great you are next to the guy next to you

87
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: or the girl next to you. So I loved what

88
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 3: Mark said, and yeah, I'm excited. I wanted to get

89
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 3: into this episode because there's a lot of redemption as

90
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: far as you know we spoke about aj I have

91
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 3: you know, I think I'd surprise some listeners about my

92
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 3: perspective on him this episode. And yeah, the new drama

93
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 3: that unfolds. I just love how much drama is in

94
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:14,559
Speaker 3: this show.

95
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: It is drama filled. Yeah, it started right from the beginning.

96
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: It was the moment we have all been waiting for.

97
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: Our guest judge, the wonderful Britt Stewart arrives in a

98
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 2: stunning red dress with a troop behind her. Contestant Selena

99
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 2: is thrilled to see her. We've heard from Selena before

100
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: that Britt is her favorite pro. She's talked about the

101
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,239
Speaker 2: fact that there's not a lot of black ballroom dancers

102
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: represented on TV, and so Britt is one of the

103
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 2: main reasons she's.

104
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: Invested in the show.

105
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 2: And I have heard from all of you many times

106
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: that Britt is not only one of the world's best dancers,

107
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 2: but that she is a very gifted choreographer. And we

108
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 2: saw it here. What do you want to say about

109
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 2: the queen that is Britt's class class?

110
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 3: And I think Britt, it's synonymous with Brit Stewart is

111
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: the word class class. The way she handles herself and

112
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 3: the way she communicates, which I love because I think

113
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 3: the you know, that group of Next Prosy, they got

114
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 3: a sense of what a certain professionalism feels and sounds

115
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 3: like how you conduct yourself in the room, which was incredible.

116
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 3: So Brit did a great job team dances. What else? Yeah,

117
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 3: I mean, she's an incredible choreographer. I'm excited for this challenge.

118
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 3: I think it's perfect that we touch on kind of

119
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 3: just a different a different challenge and how that highlights

120
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 3: the different qualities and different people who can work in

121
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: a team. And otherwise as far as I guess, you know,

122
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 3: back to Brit trailblazing. Yes, there's not enough black and

123
00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 3: brown representation in ballroom dance. Yeah, you know, I'm not

124
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 3: naive to the fact that it's an exclusive you know,

125
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: besides the popularity of it, it's an expensive activity. Shout

126
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 3: out to Pierre Delaine who take the lead. Is based

127
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 3: on that movie with Antonio Benderiz. You know, this is

128
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 3: a dancer that dedicated himself to teaching and after school

129
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 3: programs all over the public school system in New York City,

130
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 3: the Greater New York City area. Again what the movie

131
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 3: is about, and he introduced partner dancing to a community

132
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 3: that otherwise just doesn't have access to that totally. You know,

133
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 3: I try to find time to do the same. I'm

134
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 3: inspired by that, you know, the Latin. It's ironic to

135
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 3: me that I'm a professional Latin dancer. You know, this

136
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: is a community that adopted this Ukrainian kid, and I'm

137
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: enjoying a very fruitful career because of it. So I

138
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: try to feel compelled to give back to that community

139
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 3: who dances authentically but never gets access to a high

140
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: level of education in the sport. So I think that's

141
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 3: why I'm excited for Britt when she joined the Kios

142
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: and the Brandons and hopefully you know, the Sosas and

143
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 3: more and more, you know, like I said, I love

144
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 3: the fact that Schermerkovsky's Chigiences and Subchenko's and all these

145
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 3: Eastern European names. But it's fun to see, like I said,

146
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,199
Speaker 3: the black and brown community represent another show.

147
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 2: Well said Well, Britt performs to a cover of All

148
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: shook Ups, surrounded by the troop, and as always, she's magical.

149
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 2: Robert is equally impressed, and Britt announces the challenge for

150
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 2: the week. It involves the ever popular element of dancing

151
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 2: with the stars, the group dance, most notably those big

152
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 2: show openers you guys are famous for. Now, now, as

153
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 2: someone who has participated in these numbers now for years,

154
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: tell the listener what it's like prepping for the who choreographs?

155
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: How long do you have?

156
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: Like, are you also doing this right alongside all your

157
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: celeb work and choreographing for that week and the next week?

158
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 3: Totally? Totally No, it's a huge undertaking, but it's exciting,

159
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: you know. To me, it's an opportunity for us to

160
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 3: first of all, become a student, to be directed by

161
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: a choreographer that's invited. Sometimes yes, it's in house, right,

162
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 3: so it's one of the pros taking the lead choreograph

163
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 3: and a big number. But it's not me doing the

164
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 3: prepare you know the prepare work, right, I'm just showing

165
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 3: up and I'm total what to do. And typically it's

166
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 3: really cool dance moves. The issue is that it's at

167
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 3: six in the morning on a Friday, Oh my gosh,

168
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 3: and it's three hours and you have three hours to

169
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 3: learn the entire piece and shoot the wide and the

170
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 3: wide is kind of the final take for the director

171
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: production and everybody to kind of you know, figure out

172
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: how to compliment it. If it's a Friday and it's

173
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 3: a Tuesday show, you understand how important that Friday three

174
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 3: why it is right? And so that pressure was really

175
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 3: well communicated in the challenge. I love that. I love

176
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 3: that they got a chance to really feel the pressure

177
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 3: and the pressure of doing it clean right now. Yeah,

178
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 3: I mean that's the process. But they did a great job.

179
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 3: I mean, you saw how again. I have so many

180
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 3: sports analogies, but really it's whether it's sports or in

181
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 3: anything high pressure. Sorry that it is so loud out

182
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 3: in the studio in the closet, I know.

183
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: I love this.

184
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 2: You are at the time, obviously, and tell them to shut.

185
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: Up, open that door.

186
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 3: Hey, hey, simmer down, we're doing a podcast here.

187
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: Gosh, work doesn't stop for some of us.

188
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 3: They flipped me off. You can't hear it, but but

189
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 3: I could see.

190
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, send them, send them a leaf.

191
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 3: I will.

192
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 2: This week, we got a little bit of a shocker

193
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 2: because the contestants are told that they are going to

194
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: recreate the dance they just saw Britt perform. That's a

195
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 2: nice little surprise.

196
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 3: I like that.

197
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: And then we get a confession interview from contestant Adele,

198
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 2: who admits that her background is in competitive ballroom, not group,

199
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 2: so she's feeling nervous. How are these two totally different skills?

200
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 2: It's always okay, why why?

201
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 3: That's why again, you it's so hard to cast for

202
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 3: the show is because there's so many different hats that

203
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 3: you have to perfect and specialize in that you wear

204
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 3: on the show. It's a very unique hybrid of a

205
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: ballroom dance professional. Yeah, so competitive ballroom dance you're perfecting

206
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 3: pretty much the same seven moves. And I say that

207
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 3: loosely obviously, but it's about execution. It's like figure skating

208
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 3: in the Olympics. Yes, there's some artistry, but really you're

209
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 3: trying to get to the heavy hitters, right, who can

210
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 3: hit the four axle whatever, Who can do the thing

211
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 3: and the thing. That's what competitive ballroom dances. But that's

212
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 3: where you get, you know, the good ones, not the

213
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 3: ones that dabbled in it, but the ones that really

214
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 3: competed and won you. You could see the velocity, you

215
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 3: can see it, but there's very few. There's very little

216
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: time for artistry, creativity or individuality. You kind of find

217
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 3: that in between the cracks. But really you are just

218
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 3: executing excellence, and it's really a game of millimeters, and

219
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: hopefully you have a little bit of a performer in

220
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 3: you as well. Then that sets you know, if you

221
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 3: got a little swag, little seasoning too, all that mastery,

222
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: you're killing it. But again, we're not exercising constantly different languages,

223
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: hearing the same song and challenging yourself to speak a

224
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 3: different language to the body. We have one language, not

225
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 3: even a language, one dialect, and we just speak it

226
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 3: to the best of all. That's competitive ballroom dance, right,

227
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 3: you know, then you have a then you have the

228
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 3: broader convention dance kid that now you know I've been

229
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 3: a part of for seven years with Jen, we teach

230
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 3: at a convention for many years. That's how I know Selena.

231
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 3: I know Selena for a long time too, not from

232
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 3: the ballroom competitive world, but I know I've seen her

233
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 3: shine for a long time at the highest level, but

234
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 3: at the highest level of speaking languages like jazz and

235
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 3: ballet and enough hip hop and enough tap to you know,

236
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 3: to really be a master of all of these languages,

237
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 3: even at a young age. So that's why when we

238
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 3: get into this episode and I see the clashes of

239
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 3: those worlds Right now, the ego start to play, right,

240
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 3: this kid won Black Bull and this girl won this

241
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: and this, But they're looking at Selena, and Selena's like, girl,

242
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 3: I've been the one for a very long time in

243
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: a very big world. You've just never been a part

244
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 3: of it, right, And these are the qualities that I

245
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 3: bring to the table, which is picks up choreography in

246
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 3: five seconds. That's a discipline that is exercised over time. Yeah,

247
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 3: you know, even if the movement is foreign for her body,

248
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 3: you could see that she's still picking it up and

249
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 3: downloading it very quickly and is ready to perform. Whereas

250
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 3: for borum dancers, because it's the same routine you're you're

251
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: really working on for years. Yeah, yeah, years. Imagine your

252
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 3: Cha cha or your fox shot. But you did it

253
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 3: not for three days, then performed in front of millions,

254
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 3: then forgot it. You did it for ten months before

255
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 3: you and saw a competition for it.

256
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: I for sure would have been able to do more

257
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: than just open my arm if I had ten months.

258
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: Well maybe not that.

259
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 3: No, No, I'm saying, well, no, you did so much

260
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: more in just four days. But you I don't know

261
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 3: if that relates to other things. I mean, it's like baseball,

262
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: and it's not like baseball and banana bal but like

263
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 3: you got to be an entertainer too. And then there's

264
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 3: a third flip which is very important, which is now

265
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 3: a whole difference. I guess quality that separates the next people,

266
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 3: and that's teaching of you. You could be a superstar.

267
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 3: Not all great professionals translate as well in coaching. You

268
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 3: see that in sports, you see that in dance. Yeah,

269
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 3: I mean, you could be an incredible performing that has

270
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: natural ability that you just you don't even know how

271
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 3: to explain. You're like, I don't oh, I just feel it,

272
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 3: and some people just feel it that you can't communicate that,

273
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 3: you can't teach that. And sometimes the dancers that never

274
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 3: really were the special ones that had to really work hard,

275
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 3: really had to come up with philosophies on how to

276
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 3: go from A to B right, those end up being

277
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: sometimes the best coaches, the best teachers. They've done a

278
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: lot more analysis. And then on top of that experience,

279
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: if you've never if you've never been nervous about charging

280
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 3: people money for forty five minutes of your time, then

281
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 3: you don't know that sense of responsibility right, besides their time,

282
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 3: their money, their expectation, the studios expectation, you know, meeting

283
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 3: those pressures when you walk in and you meet a

284
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 3: stranger and on the spot, you have to know how

285
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 3: to communicate, how to analyze, and how to give feedback,

286
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 3: and then how to execute that feedback and make that

287
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 3: person be a little better.

288
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: Right.

289
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 3: If you've never done that part, not performed, not dance,

290
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 3: not but that part, then you are, Yeah, you're in

291
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 3: for a real treat here on dancing with the start.

292
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's a good point. Well.

293
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 2: With that, the hopefuls leave for group rehearsal, where Britt

294
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 2: swings by and starts teaching the number. She focuses mostly

295
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 2: on synchronicity and spatial awareness. We see some immediate spills

296
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 2: and mistakes, most notably by Adele, who kind of predicted

297
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 2: that she was going to have issues here. Natalie seems

298
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 2: to be thriving. She likes working together. She's fast paced

299
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 2: with choreo, as does Selena. And the first session ends

300
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 2: and the girls hang back for more prep and we

301
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 2: see some headbutting between Selena and Nina, which is never

302
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 2: a great sign for group numbers.

303
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 3: Here's so we'll get to the selena. They got get

304
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 3: to that beat. Oh, we fully get into the human

305
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 3: part of this thing. Back to the dance. You know,

306
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 3: the important things as far as going into a group number.

307
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 3: You have to be clean and precise and you know,

308
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 3: allude back to what Mark said, it's like when you

309
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 3: serve the bigger collective, you look better. And that's the

310
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 3: whole point. It's not about you standing out in this

311
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 3: particular moment in time. It's about you become in uniform

312
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 3: with your team and man, you got to be a

313
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 3: certain person for that as well. You got to a

314
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 3: be disciplined enough to want to be to be clean

315
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 3: and take those directions. But you also have to have

316
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 3: the humility to think about the broader group. And a

317
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 3: lot of people don't prioritize that at all, especially on

318
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 3: our show where you have cuts of camera. You know,

319
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 3: selfish dancers, they'll just wait for that cut and then

320
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 3: be back to you know. No, it's about sacrificing yourself

321
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: for the for the greater good, at least in these

322
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 3: group dances. And I think that's another quality that the

323
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 3: Convention world teaches because there's a lot of studio group

324
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 3: numbers and those those teachers are sticklers. I mean, if

325
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 3: we said forty five, then it's forty five every time,

326
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 3: not when I feel it, not when I know. It's

327
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 3: very robotic when it comes to executing those things. OK.

328
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 3: And in the born world, we don't have that. Yeah,

329
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 3: it's about individuality, it's about your team, your partner. But

330
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 3: really that's that's where it ends. And then it's about

331
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 3: setting yourself apart from all of these other copies doing

332
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 3: the same seven steps.

333
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

334
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 3: Hold on, we're not going to skip We're not going

335
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:45,360
Speaker 3: to skip over the Salina.

336
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 2: Nina well to see them the way they are talking

337
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 2: to each other. You know what, I think Nina suffers

338
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: from a little bit of what I think I suffer

339
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 2: from in my personal life, which is I don't hear

340
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 2: my tone always, which I think she in her mind,

341
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: I think she thinks she's just saying something in a

342
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 2: factual way and doesn't hear that she's saying it and

343
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 2: what comes across as a patronizing way.

344
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I mean I have a very renowned sibling

345
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 3: that that you know about his delivery sometimes.

346
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 2: And if you don't hear it, if you like I

347
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 2: don't think Max and I can do it too.

348
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: I don't think Max or I hear it.

349
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 3: No, no, and and totally and yes, you're completely right,

350
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: Nina is you know watching her, I know exactly who

351
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 3: that is, not because I know who she is, but

352
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 3: I know that prototype of an individual and not who

353
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 3: box her in. But I grew up in the Eastern

354
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 3: European tri state Brooklyn, New York, New Jersey Philly area.

355
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 3: You know, I understand that there's very little time for

356
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 3: nuance and explanation. It's like, this is what I want,

357
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 3: this is how I feel. Do you want something else?

358
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 3: Tell me cool. I'm not gonna ask you. I'm not

359
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 3: gonna say please and thank you. Let's just get it.

360
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 3: And why I said southern galvocause' selena as far as

361
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 3: I understand as a Southern Cali girl, very respectful, very

362
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 3: you know, I mean, she's competitive, but it's I mean,

363
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 3: Jen and I have these conversations all the time, you know,

364
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 3: where I'm just having a conversation. She's thinking that we're

365
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 3: we're having a confrontation, right, But having all said all that,

366
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 3: that's yeah, that's not that's not what happened though, And

367
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 3: that's not an excuse. And I'm gonna just shout it out.

368
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 3: Nina was incredibly selfish and unprofessional. And it's funny coming

369
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 3: off of a week with the Benji situation not learning

370
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 3: a single thing about humility, you know. So again, I

371
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 3: don't want this podcast and everything I owe my feedback

372
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 3: to be about humility because we will get to a juh.

373
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,159
Speaker 3: It's a huge quality you're working. At the end of

374
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 3: the day, this isn't your show. You are part of

375
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 3: a collective and I'm just telling you and you could

376
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 3: you know, vouch for that. Yeah. In this business, for

377
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 3: every talented person, there's one hundred other talented people, right,

378
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 3: It's all about how you make people feel around you

379
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 3: and what you're like working with because if it's not good,

380
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 3: like if it hurts working with you, next yeah you're thrankfully.

381
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are one hundred people ready to take your spot.

382
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 3: And on the flip side, that's why you have a

383
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 3: culture breeding like yes man and yes no. Look it's

384
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 3: a balance, man, Yeah, it's a balance. You have to

385
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 3: be proud for sure and have self respect of course

386
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 3: after you earn it. Yeah, yeah, you know, and right

387
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 3: now you just started so I just feel like, yeah,

388
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 3: and I guess we'll get to it. Because in the

389
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 3: house they have a conversation and Salina kind of like

390
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: brings that up one more time, and here's an opportunity

391
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 3: to just be like, oh man, I hear you. Wow, Okay, listen,

392
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 3: those are not my intentions. I know this is a competition,

393
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 3: but I'm not trying to be that person. If I

394
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 3: was that person, I'm sorry. That's not what I met.

395
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 1: When they talk about it at the house though.

396
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 2: The look on her face genuine shock though, because she

397
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 2: didn't think that's where it was going. And that's what

398
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 2: made me realize. I don't think she hears herself at all.

399
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 2: I don't think when we watch it and you see it,

400
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 2: you're like, oh my god.

401
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: She cut her off.

402
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 2: She wasn't letting Selena finished sentences. She was saying things

403
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 2: with a really like no, what I mean is and

404
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 2: we hear it. I don't think she hears it. I

405
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: don't think she's I don't think she's perceiving herself.

406
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 3: You're giving her a lot of grace, and I am.

407
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 2: I am because when she went to see the look

408
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 2: of shock on her face, I could tell like, oh,

409
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 2: she she wasn't aware that she had been you know,

410
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: she doesn't hear herself, and so I think, then, you know,

411
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 2: I hope that when she's like, wow, two weeks back

412
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: to back, I've been told, I will be interested to

413
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 2: see if next week, if she has a different delivery,

414
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 2: or if she's just never gonna learn from her.

415
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: We're rooting. I'm rooting for all of them. We all

416
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: this is a this is a journey.

417
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 3: Of selfic if it happens again, we were rooting for you.

418
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: We were roading exactly.

419
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 2: So then we get some alone time with Tristan, and

420
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 2: he's admittedly having trouble. Britt is concerned with what she

421
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 2: is seeing not only from Tristan but from Nina as well. Stephanie, however,

422
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 2: is very comfortable.

423
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 3: That's the other thing. It's like, you cannot be the

424
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 3: weakest link in talking to most smack right, you cannot. Yes,

425
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 3: you're right again, we don't get to AJ.

426
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 2: Okay, you're just dangling the care of AJ. You can't wait,

427
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 2: we can't wait. So Stephanie is comfortable. Group is old

428
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 2: hat to her, especially since she was in the IRL

429
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 2: season thirty three troop.

430
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: This is her wheelhouse.

431
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: But then she accidentally smacks Natalie right in the face. Clearly,

432
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 2: this is a freak accident, but the impact was serious.

433
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 2: Can we talk about group dance injuries? How common are they?

434
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they happen. Look, that's spatial awareness. And

435
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 3: I know the contact happened from Stephanie to Natalie.

436
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: But Natalie was in the wrong spot.

437
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, this is a fifty to fifty collision,

438
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 3: right right, Yeah, you know so yeah, I mean that

439
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 3: was a really I mean unfortunate moment, but a great

440
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 3: TV moment as well, because you saw Stephanie really you know,

441
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 3: you saw a real emotion there and it stinks to

442
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 3: be in that position and it happened. It just I

443
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 3: don't recall anything like that on our show. Right, People

444
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 3: get hurt, people get hit, but to ye be injured

445
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 3: like that, Yeah, that was the first.

446
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it escalates pretty quickly.

447
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 2: Britt brings out an ice pack and she's already Natalie

448
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 2: is already developing a black eye, her hands get tingly

449
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 2: and she is in a lot of pain. And then

450
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 2: outcome the producers. Stephanie feels terrible. We see her doing

451
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 2: an interview and she is crying and it just basically

452
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 2: stinks all around. Yeah, and then here comes the ambulance,

453
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: Natalie is given pain meds and she is taken out

454
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: on a stretcher. So then minus Natalie story is back

455
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 2: to practice. I know, well we had it in season

456
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 2: thirty four of Dancing with the Stars. We also had

457
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: an ambulance and a stretcher moment with Elaine.

458
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 3: Some dances a contact sport.

459
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it really is.

460
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 2: We saw the amount of injuries I saw you guys

461
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 2: deal with on tour. Yeah, what you're able to still

462
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 2: do after? I mean you had you went to the

463
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: emergency room, you had vertigo, you.

464
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 3: Needed to have cool.

465
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 1: I mean that's not as cool.

466
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 2: You had to have your crystals shaken back into place

467
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 2: or whatever.

468
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: So crazy.

469
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I mean again, it's it's like the injuries

470
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 3: tend to be you know, ligaments or or joints. It's

471
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 3: from not wear and tear, but certain things like that. Yeah,

472
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 3: very rarely do we get rocked in the head or

473
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 3: the face and have to sit out, you know. And

474
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 3: I think this tour, Britt got quote an elbow to

475
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 3: the face.

476
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, you in the eye.

477
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. Yeah. So again, I mean this high energy,

478
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:18,120
Speaker 3: there's a lot of adrenaline and again those three hour rehearsals.

479
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 3: You really don't have a lot of time. So yeah,

480
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 3: I mean, it happens.

481
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: I know.

482
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 2: It's just so wild too to see a fellow contestant, okay,

483
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 2: a stretcher. All right, guys, we've got an hour and

484
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes now, you got to get right back to it, right, yeah, you,

485
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 2: let's not think about it.

486
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: We got to get back to dance.

487
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 3: I'd just be strategically out of place all the time.

488
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,479
Speaker 3: I'm just the only one left.

489
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: It's just me. Everyone get out of way.

490
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 2: So Nina is working on her timing, something that was

491
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: criticized in week one, and she is feeling the pressure,

492
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 2: and then Britt has a huge surprise for the group.

493
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: It's time to perform right now. They've had three hours

494
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: to learn the dance, which is the amount of time

495
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: you pros get to learn the opening number for the show.

496
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 2: I am completely unwell at the thought of that. I

497
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: don't know how you guys do it, but surely and

498
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 2: Mark walk in and that's right, the real judges will

499
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 2: be watching, and the contestants are freaking out. No one

500
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 2: feels like they're at one hundred percent, and aj is

501
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 2: worried this is going to be a surprise elimination. Yeah,

502
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 2: did you think someone was going to go home right now?

503
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 3: Yes? Okay, yes and no, yes if Natalie wasn't if

504
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 3: Natalie was still there, I think the plans words to

505
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 3: eliminate somebody. Then.

506
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: Ah, interesting, that's a lot of things TV for you.

507
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, they pulled an audible, but it also revealed a

508
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 3: real big moment with Kristen. And yeah, they did get

509
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: a chance to perform it, and they did get the

510
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 3: feedback and they got saved.

511
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: Yes they did, but they waste no time.

512
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 2: The dance starts to all shook up and we start

513
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 2: seeing some issues quickly. What were your thoughts watching the

514
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 2: group dance? I was still very impressed because I can't

515
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 2: believe that you guys could do a whole number like

516
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 2: that in just three hours. But were you impressed or

517
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 2: did you see lots of cracks?

518
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? I saw a lot of I mean I could

519
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: be both. I was impressed because it wasn't an easy

520
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 3: routine and it is hard to pick everything up in

521
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 3: three hours. I'm also not you know, like I said,

522
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 3: we typically at six in the morning when we're learning

523
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 3: these things, and certain choreography gets more complicated than others

524
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 3: for what they were given. You know, it's intermediate advance

525
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 3: in the sense of like the challenge, and I thought

526
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 3: they did great for the most part, from beginning to

527
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 3: the end. They did it. But then, yeah, you see

528
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 3: the cracks. You see certain people just not not being

529
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 3: ready for that moment, you know. Unfortunately Tristan was one

530
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 3: of those people.

531
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, cuts right to the chase and she asks who

532
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 2: the weakest link was and surely notes that Tristan was

533
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 2: entirely off time wise, and Mark points out that Nina

534
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 2: was too, And it feels like they are about to

535
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: be kicked off the show, but instead brit says they

536
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 2: will not be on the chopping block just yet. There

537
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: will be a second challenge where they could redeem themselves.

538
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 2: The dancers huddle and Tristan is visibly upset, and it's

539
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: very nice to see everyone who comes and supports him,

540
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 2: including Mark and Shirley.

541
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: It's a nice little moment. Yeah, yeah, have.

542
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 2: You ever have you ever been the emotional one in

543
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 2: a group of dancers that need some some hugs?

544
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 3: Was I receiving the hugs? Yeah? I in private? You

545
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 3: cry the shower, Yeah, go in a closet, do a podcast.

546
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 3: And cry cry, yeah, I mean, it happens again. It happens,

547
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 3: but it's been happening, so I know, you know, it's like, yeah,

548
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: so I could just I could already see it. You know,

549
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 3: these challenges are a weekly challenge. It's not like, you know,

550
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 3: and now, choreograph one thing you're going to do one time. No, no, no,

551
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: this is like every week. This is baseline. You have

552
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 3: to be able to pick it up and then you

553
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 3: have to be able to execute it.

554
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

555
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 2: That night back at the house, everyone admits this has

556
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 2: been tough, and it breaks down a bit when Selena

557
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 2: says that she thinks Nina doesn't have respect for her.

558
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 2: Nina apologizes, but does not fully agree with the critique.

559
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 3: Is that called an apology?

560
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: You know, I wouldn't really call it. She's like, I'm

561
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: sorry you felt that way. That's what she says. I'm

562
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: sorry you.

563
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 2: Felt that way, which is not really an apology.

564
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 3: I will say this, I mean, including Nina, like so

565
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 3: many great characters, like if I'm just looking at the

566
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 3: sh show for the show's sake, it's so good and

567
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 3: they did a great job. I mean, and they're also dynamic,

568
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 3: whether they're qualified or not. I like this show. I

569
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 3: liked them and how much they're willing to be themselves.

570
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 3: I also like that, so you know, for better or

571
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 3: for worse. Yeah, that exchange was I already told you,

572
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 3: you know, lack of awareness just not and that's okay.

573
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 3: I mean I didn't I wasn't born Aristotle. You know,

574
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 3: this took years to refine, so hopefully.

575
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: That wasn't built in a day.

576
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, no, there's just just not reading the room,

577
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 3: not reading the rehearsal room or that room.

578
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: They may have cut it, of course.

579
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 3: But totally and I want to give her that grace too.

580
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: They I would have wondered if she I mean I

581
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 2: would have liked to have seen her ask other people

582
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,719
Speaker 2: around her, did you did? Did I seem like I

583
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 2: was being disrespectful to you? And I would have loved

584
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 2: for other people.

585
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 3: Well you see and reacts that people are like, why, yes,

586
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 3: she's not really even Yeah, so that that's for me.

587
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 3: That's a collective when she's when Selena says it, people

588
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 3: weren't like I know only you felt that. So anyway, Yeah,

589
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 3: well I've got to watch you gotta watch the show.

590
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: It's so good. You gotta see what comes next.

591
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: Uh So, Nina is not sure how to work this out,

592
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 2: but she says she'll bite the bullet and push through

593
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 2: the uncomfortable feelings.

594
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 1: And have you ever been in a.

595
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 2: Group dance situation with a majority of people you don't

596
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: feel like you get along with?

597
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 3: Yeah?

598
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure those dynamics are difficult, totally.

599
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean again, that's just the world doesn't revolve

600
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 3: around me, and it doesn't necessarily is filtered through my lens.

601
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 3: And you know, I've I had one time that I

602
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 3: was offered a gig and one time I flexed the Okay,

603
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 3: i'll do it, but if so and so doesn't person there. Yeah,

604
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 3: and they honored that because I was you know, a

605
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 3: big deal and that was awful and I would never

606
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 3: do that again. I haven't obviously ever done that again.

607
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 2: But did you feel that way right away, like when

608
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 2: you then went into the situation, did you immediately regret

609
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 2: having done it?

610
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 1: Or is it something that with time?

611
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 3: Because I don't want to be of influence, you know,

612
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 3: I don't want to use my influence to take something

613
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 3: away from people. I want to give it to people. Now, granted,

614
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 3: taking that place away from that person gave that place

615
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 3: to somebody with a better attitude and just a more

616
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 3: generous spirit when it comes to whatever I was doing.

617
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,319
Speaker 3: But I just don't want to get it to that.

618
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 3: I never want to conduct myself that way. But I

619
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 3: haven't said that. Back to the original conversation, regardless of

620
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 3: what field you are, it's about how you make people

621
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,799
Speaker 3: feel right, and a lot of times, unfortunately people never

622
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 3: even I'm not going to even say that to your face.

623
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 3: The fact that Selena, for instance, in this Nina situation,

624
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 3: not to kind of be the same conversation, but the

625
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 3: fact that she even addressed it and was like, hey,

626
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 3: this is how I feel. You're not even going to

627
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: get that right. Typically you're just gonna bless your heart,

628
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 3: you know, and walk away. And it's just like, I

629
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 3: never want to work with that person again, right, you know.

630
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 3: So I try to treat people with kindness. I try

631
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 3: to also be an example of that, but but yeah,

632
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 3: you got to show up the right attitude.

633
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: It's now day two of rehearsals. Robert and Britt arrive

634
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 2: and Natalie is still out, which is obviously going to

635
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 2: put her at a major disadvantage. They announced Challenge number

636
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 2: two is creating a group dance, and I had a

637
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 2: real Leonardo DiCaprio meme moment here where I was pointing

638
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 2: at the screen because we got to see our group

639
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 2: dance from season thirty four, and I my group dance

640
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 2: experience was it's maybe my favorite week of the entire show.

641
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I loved it.

642
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 2: I thought it was very interesting to see the way

643
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 2: you all work together. So I wasn't on your team,

644
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 2: so not you, but the pros that were on my team.

645
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 2: Seeing the way you guys communicate with each other when

646
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 2: you take a lead versus when you decide to let

647
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,840
Speaker 2: other people share their perspectives on it and then decide

648
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 2: to take a step back. I felt like the pros

649
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 2: that I had were Everyone was very open to constructive criticism.

650
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 2: Everyone wanted to make sure everyone was shining. It was

651
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 2: just it was the most fun. It was also very

652
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 2: overwhelming because it was very fast, and I was on

653
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 2: a team of celebs that included Jordan Chiles.

654
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: And Whitney Levitt. We have Robert and Dylan, so I

655
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: mean I.

656
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 2: Have three of five who ended up being finalists, and

657
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 2: I'm the.

658
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: Weakest link of the girls. I also have Danny.

659
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm like, no.

660
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 2: It was it was it was so I and I

661
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 2: was team captain because I had been in like I

662
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 2: was the lowest standing.

663
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: It was all very overwhelming.

664
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 2: It was a lot to handle, but it still ended

665
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: up being my favorite week because I just loved seeing

666
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 2: the way everybody worked together. And also I had a

667
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 2: basically an emotional meltdown right before we went to go

668
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 2: shoot the group dance, and Mark literally grabbed me by

669
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 2: the shoulders and was like.

670
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 1: Danielle, you've got to get it together.

671
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 2: And he's like, take a deep breath with me, and

672
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 2: he like breathed, He like basically put me through a

673
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: little meditation, and then I was like, I've got this,

674
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 2: and I feel like the dance number went off without hitch,

675
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 2: so I it.

676
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 3: Was really good. It was a great Glasses It was.

677
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: Great. Did you have a good time in the group

678
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: dance last year?

679
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,479
Speaker 3: Yeah? Those are the best times, you know again, because

680
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 3: especially for the celebs, his experiences is about also building

681
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 3: camaraderie with the team beyond you and your partner. Obviously,

682
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 3: that is the core relationship you build, but those team

683
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 3: dances the first time in the season that you really

684
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 3: get to be in the room for a while. You

685
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 3: see everybody's process. That's the other thing that I don't

686
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 3: know how Mark does this thing until that group dance,

687
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 3: if we have it, I don't know how. That's why

688
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,720
Speaker 3: going through the troop I think is really beneficial for

689
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 3: you know, an upcoming pro because of that, because you

690
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 3: see everybody's process and it's just so invaluable. Yeah, you're

691
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 3: going into this, you know, and so team dance is

692
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 3: a reflection of that. It just shows, like, you know,

693
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 3: I learned a lot in those rooms from the times

694
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 3: I shared team dances Derek and Mark and Max and

695
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 3: you know, the the Lindsay's and Jenna's brilliant Like just

696
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 3: you just see who's nice with it, you know, and

697
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 3: how they do it, and who's just like not phased

698
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: by the process, which leads me to the next process,

699
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 3: I mean conversation my guy a j you know, it's

700
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 3: like still so cocky, so cocky, but you know what's

701
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 3: you know, the only thing that's more important in the

702
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 3: room than humility is decisiveness, you know, and and that

703
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 3: arrogance creates a decisiveness that is crucial especially for that

704
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 3: challenge came in Boom boom boom. You know, it's like

705
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 3: what you what I criticized the week before in this,

706
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 3: in this you know, the matter of fact way that

707
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:02,440
Speaker 3: he spoke to Selena, went about choreographing his stories, piece

708
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 3: of winning the you know, all of these things mm hmm.

709
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 3: But on the flip side, some of the hardest things

710
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 3: in those rooms under time drest are making decisions. And

711
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 3: this is not a creative process. This is not a

712
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 3: uh I don't want to make it political, but this

713
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 3: is not socialism. This is authoritarian. This is a regime. Again,

714
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 3: you want to workshop ideas And I say that only

715
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 3: because I go the other way. I love camaraderie. I love,

716
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 3: obviously leadership, but I love leading by inspiring the people

717
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 3: around me. And so I love the town hall meeting

718
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 3: of what do you think? But why don't we just

719
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 3: fly out of the thing? What about you? And I

720
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 3: think this should be orange? And what about you? And

721
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 3: you know? And then forty five minutes later like, no,

722
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 3: we're not getting a zip line, we're not getting that.

723
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: None of this is practical and we just wasted an hour,

724
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 3: right you know, yeah, where the rooms where? Like For instance,

725
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,280
Speaker 3: Derek is very effective in a team dance environment because

726
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 3: he came guns blazing with no apologies. Yeah, he came in. Hey,

727
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 3: if you know him, you just know how you know,

728
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 3: it's like he has one thought before the ends he

729
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 3: goes into the next one. Yeah, we could start here,

730
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 3: and then we can start, and then we could do

731
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 3: you know, no, no, never mind, and it's like five six,

732
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 3: seven eight, and we're doing, and so you're you're making

733
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 3: decisions while doing, and that is always in the in

734
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,439
Speaker 3: every creative field, in any field. I think, start, yeah,

735
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 3: just starting, you're gonna have a lot of bad ideas.

736
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 3: Start moving, yeah, you know, And I thought back to Aj,

737
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 3: I gotta give him props. He led the way and

738
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 3: he did a great job. He made a great you know,

739
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 3: he led the way on a great final performance. We'll

740
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 3: get to that, but overall, great decision making, very decisive

741
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 3: props he'd took that episode for me.

742
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 1: Yeah.

743
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 2: Well, just like in season thirty four where Andy and

744
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 2: I were the bottom two and then we were made

745
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,280
Speaker 2: we were made team captains for the group dance. Nina

746
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 2: and Tristan are captains, and Nina drafts in this order

747
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:27,280
Speaker 2: Alan aj and the Rules, Royce, Adele, and Tristan picks

748
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 2: Stephanie Selena and Eric. Nina's team is going to do

749
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 2: the tango and Tristan gets the pasa. Dobley Aj is

750
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 2: most at home with the tango, so Nina puts him

751
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 2: in charge of the dance, which is a big step

752
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 2: for her to give up control. And this obviously does

753
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 2: seem to be his wheelhouse and he is taking on

754
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 2: a lot of risk as the brains of the operation

755
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,280
Speaker 2: and Tristan's team Pasa will let the entire team form

756
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 2: things together, but Selena expresses concern with him just shutting down.

757
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: She thinks he.

758
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 2: Should step up as the cat. What did you think

759
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 2: about the way Tristan handled being team captain in this scenario.

760
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:16,360
Speaker 3: I mean, here's the challenge, Like when you're not under prepared,

761
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 3: but when you are like in over your head, you

762
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 3: can shrink that distance with preparedness and then like really

763
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,799
Speaker 3: you hear those stories, you know, catch me if you can.

764
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,880
Speaker 3: It became an attorney like by like you got to

765
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 3: do extraordinary, You got to put an extraordinary effort into

766
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 3: something and you could bridge that gap of just not

767
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,879
Speaker 3: being in over over your head. Right, he didn't have that,

768
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 3: Like I've been in over my head before. I was

769
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,239
Speaker 3: asked to choreograph something like season one, I was like

770
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,319
Speaker 3: a group number I have, how do you? Where do

771
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,839
Speaker 3: I start? But I had I had a chance to prepare, overpare,

772
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 3: ask advice, blah blah blah, and then by the time

773
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 3: I got in the room, I already had something to

774
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 3: work with. He didn't have that. And so this is

775
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 3: a combination of not having the tools and then not

776
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 3: having the the ability to over prepare for something that

777
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 3: you weren't ready for. As far as the other team

778
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 3: with AJ, you know, again, Nina made an executive decision

779
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 3: not out of humility, but because she was also in

780
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 3: over her head and she saw somebody that had confidence

781
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 3: in what he was doing. And I was like, sure, yes, yes,

782
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 3: go ahead, and I'll call her out again. I mean, man,

783
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 3: she's really getting in this episode. I'll call her out

784
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 3: when they were standing in line, and it's you know,

785
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 3: and here's the thing. It's like, when you delegate responsibility

786
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,399
Speaker 3: to somebody else, then you better praise that somebody else

787
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 3: and not take not take credit. And you see when

788
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:52,879
Speaker 3: they're asked, so, who choreographed this routine? You know, Adele

789
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 3: right away starts to turn to AJ and she starts

790
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 3: to say, well, we all contributed and we just kind

791
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 3: of let agent oh Aj took it over from beginning

792
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 3: to the end, which is fine. Yeah, I know, this

793
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,480
Speaker 3: is a competition. The hardest thing about Dancing with the

794
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 3: Stars is having the mental strength and the emotional strength

795
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 3: to go the distance on their incredible pressure. Yeah, and

796
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 3: you're see that the challenges are just another challenge. Yeah,

797
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 3: they're all very important.

798
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 2: But like you said, you better give credit where credit

799
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,720
Speaker 2: is due and being able to let go of your

800
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 2: ego enough to say, oh, you want me to do

801
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 2: what I was team captain, what was best for me

802
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 2: and the team this week is to let this expert

803
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 2: in tango take over. And that's what we That's what

804
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 2: I decided to do. And he so he did the choreography.

805
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 2: They would have they wouldn't They wouldn't have knocked her

806
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 2: for that, great good idea. You had someone who was ready,

807
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:54,919
Speaker 2: willing and able to step in and do a better

808
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 2: job than you were, and you could learn from him

809
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 2: and that's what you will.

810
00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, great, that's what you should do.

811
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, that was just I mean, I'm being petty now,

812
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 3: but that was a moment I caught too it's like, no.

813
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 1: That's not petty. I am right there with you.

814
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 2: I always love to make sure it gets their credit excellent.

815
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 1: Yes, rolls Royce, hold that, uh huh.

816
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 3: She You know. It's interesting. It's like the people that

817
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,399
Speaker 3: are most willing to give credit are the ones that

818
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 3: typically are the most brilliant. You know. It's like maybe

819
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,840
Speaker 3: brilliant is a big word, but it's like, yeah, of

820
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 3: course you just demand credit when you you know, you've

821
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 3: lost sleep over something. Yeah, totally fight for credit. But

822
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 3: I don't understand people that aren't generous with their credit,

823
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:47,879
Speaker 3: that aren't enthusiastically looking forward to the opportunity to give

824
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 3: somebody else.

825
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I right there with you.

826
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 2: Well, after a little bit of practice, it's time for

827
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 2: the competition. The contestants are all dressed up, and I

828
00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 2: recognize some of those beautiful outfits and we are in

829
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 2: the ballroom.

830
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,919
Speaker 1: The judges are in place, but Natalie is not there.

831
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,240
Speaker 2: Robert says he will explain her absence a little later.

832
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 2: First up is Team Pasa Dobla, Tristan, Selena, Stephanie and Eric.

833
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 2: Shirley asks who took the lead with choreography, and they

834
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 2: say they worked it out as a team and then

835
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 2: we see the dance to Lenny Kravitz. Are you going

836
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 2: to go my way? What did you think of Team Pasable?

837
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 3: By the way, both teams that are a great job? Yeah,

838
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 3: they did, both did a great job. I thought, again, man,

839
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 3: am I really showing my bias here? But like I

840
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:36,319
Speaker 3: thought they were a bit uh. I didn't agree with

841
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 3: the criticism of Selena, Okay, I didn't think she was

842
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 3: the weakest link at all. I know she was great,

843
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 3: So that was that was weird.

844
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: A little surprising you to see her in the bottom two.

845
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but everything else, yeah, I mean it was good.

846
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought it was good. Every thought it was

847
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 1: great too.

848
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 3: Everybody's good. I know, it's all relative. Good is relative

849
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 3: to great yep. So it's like good is not good

850
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 3: enough sometimes.

851
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:04,479
Speaker 1: Yeah.

852
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 3: That's the other thing that's hard is being able to

853
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 3: evaluate is this good enough?

854
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 1: Yeah?

855
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 3: Or am I tripping about perfecting something that's already great?

856
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 3: Or no it's not good enough. It's good for that,

857
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 3: but it's not good for this. So I think that

858
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 3: was the case. I don't know if I'm making sense,

859
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,360
Speaker 3: but it was good.

860
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

861
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 3: The other one was a bit more polished and just exceptional.

862
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the judges were not impressed with Team Pasa Dooble.

863
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:30,399
Speaker 1: They wanted more.

864
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,399
Speaker 2: They liked the beginning, but Britt felt like they were

865
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,480
Speaker 2: out there as individuals and Tristan felt a little lost.

866
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,360
Speaker 2: Mark didn't like Selena's spatial awareness and surely noted weak

867
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 2: knee walks, which felt like a real batman symbol from

868
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,439
Speaker 2: a boy here. I felt like that was a real

869
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 2: uh shout out to our boy val.

870
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 3: This knee walks, she said, walks.

871
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 2: She thought they had weak knee walks, and I was like,

872
00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:59,799
Speaker 2: we know somebody who us had to do a new walk.

873
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,839
Speaker 3: I know someone I gotta lucky with the epic camera egg.

874
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: Nah, don't you dare. Look at you with your effusive credit.

875
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 2: Look at you see you're putting it in, putting it

876
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 2: into play right here, credit to the director. But no,

877
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 2: those are incredible new walks. But she did praise Eric

878
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 2: and Stephanie. She said the team would have been better

879
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,399
Speaker 2: off with someone in the lead. Mark mentions it gets

880
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 2: even harder when you're dealing with an amateur celebrity, which

881
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 2: I think.

882
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:26,959
Speaker 1: Great point.

883
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:31,800
Speaker 2: Imagine throwing in four celebs who you know you have

884
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 2: no idea where they're going to be so yeah that

885
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 2: that could be really hard. And then it's time for

886
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:40,720
Speaker 2: team tango Nina, Aj, Allen, and Adele. Nina tells Shirley

887
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 2: that AJ took the lead on this piece, but everyone

888
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 2: shipped in.

889
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 1: It's not really what I saw. But okay.

890
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 2: Mark is very excited to see ballroom from Aj because

891
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 2: they have seen him do jive the last two weeks

892
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 2: and they noticed that Nina was able to release control

893
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 2: than the dance be it is to Ariana Grande's Into You,

894
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:09,320
Speaker 2: and the unthinkable happens in the first ten seconds. Alan

895
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:14,919
Speaker 2: slips and falls to the ground. Val What went through

896
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 2: your head when you saw that?

897
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,720
Speaker 3: Just again nerves? You know, everybody got their own challenge,

898
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 3: Like Alan has checks off so many boxes. H His

899
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 3: whole thing is composure. I mean he's got crazy, you know,

900
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 3: crazy energy, which is so fun to watch. Crazy just

901
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 3: for lack of a better you know, he's just high energy, yeah,

902
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:41,839
Speaker 3: high energy. Yeah, controlling that energy. Otherwise you're gonna trip

903
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 3: on an invisible.

904
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: Step all over, trip over your own feet.

905
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:48,760
Speaker 3: But you know those things are they're minute in the finally,

906
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:52,880
Speaker 3: I would have a problem with that, but overall, you know,

907
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 3: these things happen.

908
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Alan doesn't let it stop him. They

909
00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 2: finished the dance, they look sharp, and how how did

910
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,959
Speaker 2: you end up feeling after Team Tango's dance and aj

911
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 2: taking the lead and being strong.

912
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 3: That's when I had that revelation. It's like this kid, man,

913
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 3: I can't even be mad at that. You know, like, sure,

914
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 3: I might not like that approach, but it's not about

915
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,919
Speaker 3: what I like or the approach, it's about the end result. Yep,

916
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 3: we could apologize after.

917
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: Did you feel like his choreography stood out to you?

918
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah, okay, yeah, he made great decisions because again,

919
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 3: it's not just about choreography. No, that's not Emmy winning choreography.

920
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 3: There's nothing really unique or original about that choreography. But sometimes,

921
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 3: especially on the time the rest, it's not time for

922
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 3: you to be an artist. It's time for you to

923
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 3: be a craftsman. And those are two different things. And

924
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 3: you could see that he's got so many miles under

925
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,120
Speaker 3: his belt that he's a craftsman. He knows exactly what

926
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,320
Speaker 3: to pull out for what challenge. And that's why he

927
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 3: you know, I love when he said you want to expond,

928
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 3: you don't want to shrink or whatever he said. I

929
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,399
Speaker 3: was like, I never even said it like that, but yeah,

930
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 3: very good. So he just yeah, he won the challenge.

931
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 3: He's the best one of this is the challenge he wanted.

932
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:05,879
Speaker 1: Yeah.

933
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 2: When the song ends, the team has a nice group

934
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,759
Speaker 2: hug really supporting Alan, who is visibly beating himself up

935
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 2: over the fall. And now with the judges, Mark acknowledges

936
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 2: Alan's fall, but praises him for getting up. Everyone falls,

937
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:23,399
Speaker 2: it's fine. He loved Nina's improvement and said letting AJ

938
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 2: lead was the right choice. Surely still has some concerns

939
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 2: about timing. She gave maybe a little bit of credit

940
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,280
Speaker 2: to AJ, and we see some mother and son bickering

941
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 2: over that comment, which was I loved seeing their dynamic.

942
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's also enough like a show within the show.

943
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 3: I love Mark and Shirley again, that's a show I've

944
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 3: subscribed to for the last twenty years. Yes, and so

945
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 3: I'm it's well documented and he'll share some of his

946
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 3: mother's antics in regards to educating him and coaching him

947
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:03,839
Speaker 3: on his own accord. But yeah, they're amazing and yeah,

948
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,399
Speaker 3: just I just love her like she always got time,

949
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 3: Yeah to tell you how it is.

950
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 2: I loved that it was like an A and a

951
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:18,279
Speaker 2: B storyline where Nina is also being told your delivery

952
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 2: sucks sometimes, and Mark turns to his mom and he goes,

953
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 2: it's just you know, it's the delivery, and it's like it.

954
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,399
Speaker 1: You see it, you see it playing out.

955
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what the difference is.

956
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,959
Speaker 1: Surely's earned it. Come on beyond.

957
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 3: Listen. Nobody earned. Nobody earns the right to be cruel,

958
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 3: to be somebody else, to be a narcissist, to be

959
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 3: condescending patron. No one earns that. I've met, you know,

960
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 3: don't meet you idols. I've met people have admired for

961
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 3: their work who were absolutely awful human beings. And I

962
00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 3: could separate it too.

963
00:54:58,040 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but.

964
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 3: You yeah, she's earned that SATs, She's earned that lack

965
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:10,080
Speaker 3: of reiteration. She's not gonna spoonfeed it to you. She's

966
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 3: gonna say it, and she's gonna say it respectfully, and

967
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 3: that's all you're getting and that's more than you deserve.

968
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:19,959
Speaker 3: Right So, so I love Shirley and she's earned that tone.

969
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:21,399
Speaker 1: Well.

970
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 2: Shirley loves Adele and calls aj the star of the day.

971
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 2: Britt was very impressed and knows it was out of

972
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 2: their comfort zone. I loved when Shirley said that Aj

973
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 2: had been self absorbed for the you know, and and

974
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 2: full of himself for the first two weeks, and I thought, well,

975
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,359
Speaker 2: we we agreed, you know, we called it out here,

976
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 2: that's for sure. So then we go to break and

977
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 2: we returned to the big moment. We have a clear

978
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 2: winner here. It is no shock that Team Tango has

979
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,680
Speaker 2: won the challenge and is safe from elimination and then

980
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 2: from Team Passa. Dooble surely announces that Selena and Tristan

981
00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 2: are in Jeopardy?

982
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,880
Speaker 1: Are those the right too to be in Jeopardy? Tristan

983
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:12,360
Speaker 1: for me, yes.

984
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 3: Tristan and Selena. No. I don't think Selena should be

985
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 3: in the bottom two.

986
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah I didn't. I didn't see that either.

987
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:23,440
Speaker 3: But here's something to also consider, Like, fans don't have

988
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 3: a vote.

989
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,000
Speaker 1: I know, it doesn't matter what we think, so it really, you.

990
00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,279
Speaker 3: Know, it doesn't matter. It's it's really it comes down

991
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 3: to that. I just didn't think that she should have

992
00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 3: been in the.

993
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 1: Bottom I know, I agreed.

994
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 2: I thought for when they were in the bottom too,

995
00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 2: I was like, well, by Tristan, I was like, all right, Tristan.

996
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:45,399
Speaker 2: Tristan's gone obviously like there's okay, uh, And then when

997
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 2: it's time to find out who's going home, we get

998
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 2: the shocker.

999
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: Everyone is safe surely reveals that Natalie has not been

1000
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 1: medically cleared to return, so she has been eliminated.

1001
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 2: It's very emotional both for the two dancers who are

1002
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,359
Speaker 2: being saved after thought thinking they might be going home,

1003
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 2: but also there is a lot of sadness for Natalie. Yeah,

1004
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:09,360
Speaker 2: Stephanie has a lot going through her mind back in

1005
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 2: the line, but Natalie does come out to say goodbye

1006
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,359
Speaker 2: and support everyone, which is nice to know that she's

1007
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,240
Speaker 2: not like laid up in a hospital back somewhere. Well,

1008
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 2: the dancer's ugly cry around Natalie, and we prep for

1009
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 2: week four when Jenna Johnson will.

1010
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:25,280
Speaker 1: Be stopping Bob.

1011
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 3: I'm so excited.

1012
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 1: I am so excited too.

1013
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 2: And her theme is chemistry. Who better to teach about

1014
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 2: chemistry than Jenna Johnson.

1015
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:39,520
Speaker 3: She's a chemistry she sure is.

1016
00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 2: She's in the lab, she's cooking up She's a scientist.

1017
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,480
Speaker 2: I know you have to get going back to rehearsal.

1018
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us, Thank you all to all

1019
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,000

1020
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,560

Speaker 2: about your beautiful wife.

1022
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: Thank you. Yeah, I'm excited. Her facials alone are just

1023
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:02,600
Speaker 3: so hilarious, and I just love watching her on TV.

1024
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 3: I just love watching her in her element as well.

1025
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 3: I think we share that space so often that you know,

1026
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,000
Speaker 3: I'm in my zone, she's in her zone. We're servicing

1027
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 3: our partners, we're you know, we focused on other people,

1028
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 3: and it's fun to see her do her craft and

1029
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 3: I just get to be a fan and watch her

1030
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 3: do it.

1031
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:23,480
