Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. Welcome to the pre game, everybody of
Speaker 1: the Calm Down Podcast. But when on Thursday, when our
Speaker 1: real like long version, thirty minute version comes out, I
Speaker 1: think we should quickly go over what our notes are
Speaker 1: and then describe the stories because I have the same
Speaker 1: thing perfect. Um. Also just broke the second as you
Speaker 1: can see there, I tried to do the Chloe Kardashian
Speaker 1: long nails the seconds broken. This is insane. Then this
Speaker 1: is just the exactly I've spent more time with Lynn
Speaker 1: than I have with my relatives over the past three years.
Speaker 1: Enough is enough, Um, this is the pre game. For
Speaker 1: those of you that are new here, it's ten minutes
Speaker 1: of fun. Gives you a little appetizer of what we'll
Speaker 1: talk about. As previously we think it's fine exactly well,
Speaker 1: you know what, Um, that's all that matters. But it's
Speaker 1: a little precursory conversation of what we will talk about
Speaker 1: in its entirety on our full episode of the Calm
Speaker 1: Down Podcast that airs on Thursday. And let me just
Speaker 1: tell you I called Aaron for about five minutes before
Speaker 1: we jumped on here because I haven't talked to her
Speaker 1: in three days, and that feels like a month. She's
Speaker 1: doing hand gestures for those of you watching because she's hot.
Speaker 1: I'm sweating a lot of things to discuss. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on, but here we go.
Speaker 1: This is ten minutes designated to you guys, who are
Speaker 1: so wonderful and right in questions, which induces conversations which
Speaker 1: sometimes we didn't even know that we wanted to have.
Speaker 1: First one Stephica again, I'm sorry if I'm saying that wrong.
Speaker 1: Thank you for the question. The question is what was
Speaker 1: your first car? Ms andrews mine. I was just talking
Speaker 1: about this with my girlfriend's the other day. A Honda
Speaker 1: Civic stick shift. So I learned how to drive this
Speaker 1: stick shift. It was really cool. But then when I
Speaker 1: bought my own first car, that was a car my
Speaker 1: mom and dad gave me. It was a hand me
Speaker 1: down I bought it. I was a Tampa Bay Lightning reporter.
Speaker 1: I couldn't afford a Beamer, so I got a Jetta,
Speaker 1: a black Jetta, because it was like the closest thing
Speaker 1: to what a Beamer look like. Black tan interior, so
Speaker 1: it kind of looked like a Beamer, and I asked
Speaker 1: for it to be stick shift in case any of
Speaker 1: the Lightning players wanted to know how cool I was.
Speaker 1: And I was good at it, thankfully. No hills in Tampa.
Speaker 1: What about you, I'm just gonna there's so much I
Speaker 1: want to say with what you just divulged there, but
Speaker 1: is a PC show. So anyways, I'm glad that you
Speaker 1: knew how to work the stick, and we don't mean
Speaker 1: in hockey ladies and gentlemen. I also had a stick ship,
Speaker 1: but that wasn't until my second car, my first car
Speaker 1: I shared with my brother. It was a Geo Metro.
Speaker 1: The irony of all of this is my dad owned
Speaker 1: car dealerships, so I'm thinking like rich. No, we weren't
Speaker 1: rich at all. Um. He sold the cars that eventually
Speaker 1: bought into the dealership. Lee Johnson, It's the l J
Speaker 1: Way for those of you that are in Seattle, you
Speaker 1: know exactly. Whatever is there any other way than the
Speaker 1: l G A way. No, there isn't a great story.
Speaker 1: Tim hastleback when I worked with him at ESPN, his brother,
Speaker 1: not Matt, the other brother was in the cafeteria and
Speaker 1: I was on Sports Nation and he said to Tim
Speaker 1: and he goes, Hey, what's the car commercial girl doing
Speaker 1: on at ESP and he goes she works here. Anyways,
Speaker 1: if you guys are in the market for a Kia,
Speaker 1: a Mazda, Chevrolet, and Nissan jun the dealerships are growing,
Speaker 1: come on down. It's the l J Way just off
Speaker 1: five four or five exit eighteen in Kirkland. Anyways. Bringing
Speaker 1: it back to my first car, my dad's like, uh, dude,
Speaker 1: I am buying anything for you. You guys have to
Speaker 1: earn all your money. You have to whatever. The car.
Speaker 1: My brother and I drove a Geo Metro. My brother
Speaker 1: is six four and two and twenty pounds. Uh huh.
Speaker 1: We came out to the car. My brother was a
Speaker 1: senior Jake Ryan quarterback picture. I was a sophomore. I
Speaker 1: thought it was so cool because my brother was like
Speaker 1: the cool guy on campus. We came out to the
Speaker 1: parking lot one day after school after his football practice
Speaker 1: my basketball practice. The car was gone and I'm like,
Speaker 1: did I get repod, where's the car? No. The car
Speaker 1: was so light that a bunch of his offensive linemen
Speaker 1: were able to lift the car and move it to
Speaker 1: a different place in the parking lot. I share you
Speaker 1: not my mom yelled at my dad and said, this
Speaker 1: car is not safe. Our children are going to die
Speaker 1: in this car. We didn't get a new car, drove
Speaker 1: the g at montro and then put red stripes on
Speaker 1: it with paint like it was a baseball. Is the
Speaker 1: ten minutes up? I think so if we could get
Speaker 1: one of those offensive linemen that picked that car up
Speaker 1: on the episode next week, that would be Josh. That
Speaker 1: was one of the offensive lineman. His name was Josh Uncin.
Speaker 1: Where is Josh with Stephanie and I don't find him?
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Okay, next question, Pape, go all right,
Speaker 1: Danielle Clee or something like that. The match. Who is
Speaker 1: your partner and who would you like to seb partners?
Speaker 1: That's a good one, you go first. I love that
Speaker 1: the match. I would love to be partners with Charles Barkley.
Speaker 1: I mean, we know what he's like on the broadcast.
Speaker 1: You wouldn't win, but yeah, I wouldn't win, which is
Speaker 1: totally fine in it for the love of the game.
Speaker 1: It would be straight comedy him talking shipped to everyone else,
Speaker 1: getting in the heads of all the competitors. I would
Speaker 1: love to be with Chuck on the course. You yeah,
Speaker 1: I would. I would actually, well, no, that's bad. I
Speaker 1: was going to say I like to be paired up
Speaker 1: with my husband because he's pretty good. Shocker, he's golfing now.
Speaker 1: Then I also think i'd be fighting with him. Um.
Speaker 1: I think Aaron would be really good. He did a
Speaker 1: great job this year. I thought he kind of well
Speaker 1: he did Carrie Tom let's be honest, and he had
Speaker 1: some great one liners, so that would be great. Who
Speaker 1: would you like to see be partners? I think our
Speaker 1: boy Stafford needs to be involved through the grape vine.
Speaker 1: He is very good golfer and it's another way for
Speaker 1: his personality to come out. I think would be fun.
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more for those individuals that don't know
Speaker 1: how funny Matthew is he is. He reminds me so
Speaker 1: much of my brother. Actually, he's so dry and the
Speaker 1: one liners would be fantastic. Um. Next question is from
Speaker 1: Jenny Keel twelve. Why does Carissa hate birds? I do? Also? Did?
Speaker 1: I mean? Um hate birds? I don't know if I
Speaker 1: hate birds. I just the kind of freaked me out
Speaker 1: when they come like swooping in out of nowhere. Um.
Speaker 1: I think I have an aversion too, because my ex husband,
Speaker 1: Rob was his name. Um. He always wanted a parrot
Speaker 1: and I was like, we're not getting a parrot, and
Speaker 1: he goes, but wonder if I get a parrot and
Speaker 1: I teach it how to say you're pretty, you're skinny.
Speaker 1: And I was like, then I'll think about it. But
Speaker 1: to this day, I still have seven hundred emails. If
Speaker 1: I like, go to search c r A like for
Speaker 1: the name Craig under Craigslist for all these birds. He
Speaker 1: wanted an African gray. It was like the special kind
Speaker 1: of parrot that he wanted. Needless to say, I never
Speaker 1: got it. I don't hate birds, but they're not my favorite.
Speaker 1: The swooping in and kind of dirty pigeons. Pigeons, no,
Speaker 1: thank god, there's not only swan swans. And that leads
Speaker 1: us right into Miss Nina's Ninas whatever. What is the
Speaker 1: most Canadian thing Jared says or does? UM, I would
Speaker 1: say two things. What he says is a he says
Speaker 1: a lot. I say it as well, you can add
Speaker 1: to this, and I think one of the most Canadian
Speaker 1: things he does. I don't know if this is an
Speaker 1: American thing, but I've never met somebody that does this
Speaker 1: more than him. He freezes everything. His favorite cookie shop
Speaker 1: in town in Manhattan Beach is called Becker's. He loves
Speaker 1: his little oatmeal cookie from there. He gets his little
Speaker 1: chocolate chip cookie and he eats part of it and
Speaker 1: then he puts it in the freezer. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? And he's like, well, just keeps
Speaker 1: it fresh. And I think I was showing our group
Speaker 1: this a rack of ribs he had one time and
Speaker 1: then they were four years old, and he had blocked
Speaker 1: a shot in the game that night and came back
Speaker 1: and his ankle was all swollen. He was like, hey,
Speaker 1: I think we have a rack of ribs that we
Speaker 1: need to cook up. But in the meantime, can you
Speaker 1: grab him so I can put him on my leg.
Speaker 1: I'll post that picture on the Calm Down podcast. They
Speaker 1: were expired for four years, so no, we weren't cooking
Speaker 1: them up, but sure we were doing it to ice
Speaker 1: down his ankle. What a guy. Here's my question, where's
Speaker 1: the expiration date? Like? Does it say it on the
Speaker 1: package on the rack of ribs? Yeah, don't worry, I'll
Speaker 1: put it on the Calm Down. I g Yeah, it
Speaker 1: says expires and you can clearly see the date I
Speaker 1: took the picture. It was like four years later. I'm
Speaker 1: writing this down. This is a further conversation for the
Speaker 1: full length podcast. The expiration date. If something says expires,
Speaker 1: Let's say it's June and it says June seventeenth, are
Speaker 1: we throwing out? Are we not throwing out? Like? Oh no,
Speaker 1: it just has to be the cell by date has
Speaker 1: to get off the show. I think what it is, Well,
Speaker 1: what's the grace period? I'm going to write it down.
Speaker 1: I had coffee the other day and I was not
Speaker 1: excited about what transpired after that. I'm writing down. Okay,
Speaker 1: coffee creamer. There's something there, and I, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: that's why I got sick. Um, Okay, what's next. Drinks
Speaker 1: on the West day, yeah, Meredith, Mommy drinks on the
Speaker 1: first date. Yeah, I have to have a drink on
Speaker 1: a date. I remember Brooklyn Decker, which is a fun
Speaker 1: We need to get her on this podcast forever the best.
Speaker 1: So she was telling me when Andy and I used
Speaker 1: to work together on Fox Sports Live. Every night, she
Speaker 1: was Willis's babysitter. I would drop Willis off from their house.
Speaker 1: She would because he was a tiny puppy. I worked
Speaker 1: at Extra during the day, I worked at Fox at night.
Speaker 1: So she was saying how when she got set up
Speaker 1: with Andy, she was like, I had to get drunk
Speaker 1: before I went on a date with him. We'll save that,
Speaker 1: We'll get her on to tell the story. But yeah,
Speaker 1: they were both and they both had the same thoughts,
Speaker 1: so they were both wasted on their first date. Adorable.
Speaker 1: Next question, Okay, this is our last one. We're going overtime.
Speaker 1: We have an overtime to the pregame. Does that happened?
Speaker 1: Megan one Hoffman tips unpacking bathroom toiletries when traveling. My
Speaker 1: toiletry bag takes up room mind does to Jillian Gregory
Speaker 1: makes fun of me about this, But I don't care.
Speaker 1: I've had way too many things ruined. I do the
Speaker 1: large zip block bags, I do all the travel size
Speaker 1: and zip block bag and I throw it in and
Speaker 1: I know it's not cute, and I know it's not hot,
Speaker 1: but I've had way too much ship. And when you
Speaker 1: have an outfit that you're getting ready to sit down
Speaker 1: with an athlete and it's got freaking champions and condition
Speaker 1: her sains on it, that ain't good. We're all out
Speaker 1: of time. But I have of thoughts on that because
Speaker 1: my foundation which I text you about, are we still
Speaker 1: wearing foundation? When all over my makeup bag it's still
Speaker 1: like that. It's been a week. That's disgusting, I'm gross
Speaker 1: from more on that. Join us for the full length
