1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two. Well,

2
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 1: what is up y'all? It's the last Best Bits regular

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: Best Bits edition of the year and this weekend I

4
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: am bringing on Amy to wrap up our normal twenty

5
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: twenty two year. What's up? Amy? Hey Morgan? Thanks for

6
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,799
Speaker 1: having me. Yeah, it's hard to believe it's already even

7
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 1: every time this pops around because we have you know, what,

8
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: do you have eight people on the show you rotate with? Yeah,

9
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: pretty much, And I'm like, has eight weeks really gone by?

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: I mean, and that's just I feel a little representative

11
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: of this year. It was super fast in my opinion,

12
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: it does. I feel like it just keeps flying by

13
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: like crazy. And I love it though, because at this

14
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: time of year is definitely my favorite. So I'm ready

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: to get home, ready to spend some time doing absolutely nothing,

16
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: and we're just going to dive into this so we

17
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: can talk about all the Christmas things which is coming up.

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: So I don't want you to reveal too much yet, Okay.

19
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: Coming in at that number seven spot, we had Blake

20
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: Shelton on the show, and he's always super hilarious in

21
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: his view, was really awesome talking about his new TV show,

22
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: why he's leaving the Voice, and what he still gets

23
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 1: excited about in his career. But that's not what I

24
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: want to talk about. What I actually would like to

25
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: talk about is food. Okay, because it's Christmas time and

26
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: lots of food, I can do that. So what is

27
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: your favorite dishes to have around Christmas time? Well, I

28
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: mean Thanksgiving. I feel as though it's always the mac

29
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: and cheese recipe. But my family does the same thing

30
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving as we do for Christmas, so it's gonna

31
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: be the same foods, the exact same mac and cheese stuffing,

32
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: the traditional Christmas meal, at least in my family. Some

33
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: people do something totally different Christmas and Thanksgiving, but we

34
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: do the same, so ours is kind of the same.

35
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: We do very similar dishes, like they're all mostly the same.

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: But there's one thing my mom makes every year, and

37
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: it's a homemade red velvet cake and she only does

38
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: that at Christmas time. Only at Christmas time unless it's

39
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: like my sister's, like thirtieth birthday, like some special occasion.

40
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: It is a Christmas time treat. Something we do do

41
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: because we go to Colorado for Christmas and the salt

42
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: Lick is a super famous barbecue place right outside of Austin.

43
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: I was expecting that to be ice cream. No, I

44
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: don't know why. I think there might be a brand

45
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: of ice cream that's something like that. I don't think

46
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: you're pulling that out of nowhere. But salt like barbecue.

47
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: They ship and some people don't know that they ship,

48
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: but we ship it to Colorado and that's something we

49
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: typically enjoy Christmas Eve and so that's not that's something

50
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: at least a little different that I can offer you

51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: up is barbecue. And then every holiday's season, well Thanksgiving

52
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: and Christmas, we always do Tamali's too. Okay, so that's

53
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: not a traditional item at least on your guys as

54
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: a typical menu. Why Tamalies, I think it's because my

55
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: dad's from South Texas. He's no longer with us, but

56
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: it's something he started doing. He would always have friends

57
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: that would make them, and he would want to support them,

58
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,839
Speaker 1: and he would buy them. And he would just show

59
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: up with all these Tamali's and they freeze really well,

60
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: so you can keep them in the freezer, buy a

61
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: batch Thanksgiving freezome, eat them all throughout, and then buy

62
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: another batch come Christmas freezome and then you have them

63
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: all throughout. So and I'm a big I eat tamali

64
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: with ketchup, which some people might find that to be

65
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: very weird, but don't not get till you dry it, okay.

66
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: And what is it, Tomalie? Is it like wrapped in

67
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: a tortilla? Is it kind of like a burrito? What

68
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: is it? Husk? It's wrapped in a husk, but it's

69
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: a corn. I don't know. I've never made them, Morgan,

70
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: but it's like a I don't know if there's lard involved.

71
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: Maybe there is, but it's like this doughy corn thing

72
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: that gets and then you stuff it with either pork

73
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: or you can have chicken, or you can do a

74
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: black bean and halapino for yourself since you're vegetarian, or

75
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: you can do you know, cheese and haalepeno whatever. I

76
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: was just thinking, is it look kind of like an enchilada?

77
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: I was trying to picture it, Tomalie, Yes it is,

78
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: but it's not wrapped up in a tortilla, Okay, So,

79
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: but yes, it could be that shape, but you know,

80
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: like a corn husk like that? What it looks like

81
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: it's folded up and then and you actually eat the husk. No,

82
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: you open it up and eat it's on the inside. Wow, Okay,

83
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: this is fascinating. You never had it, Tomali. No, I've

84
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: never had it, Tomalie. I mean, you know. And somebody

85
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: eat those. Somebody get this girl from Tomalie's fat. I

86
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: do need some. So we have our red velvet cake.

87
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: We also have my mom makes this is like the

88
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: one time a year that she really bakes. Other than that,

89
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: she doesn't bake throughout the year. She's too busy working.

90
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: So the Christmas time I love when it happens. And

91
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: she makes the red velvet cake that is like four layers,

92
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: huge red velvet cake, all like perfect homemade icne. But

93
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: then she also makes a poppy seed bread with homemade

94
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: iccene as well. That's to die for. And these are

95
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: this is the only time a year I get to

96
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: have both, and I eat so much. I eat like

97
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: every loaf that she makes of all of this stuff.

98
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: It's so good. So those are like the two. But

99
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: now I want to have tomalies and poppy seed bread

100
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: and red velvet cake. Well, I looked up the definition

101
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: of the Tamali and it says here Tomali's are a

102
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: traditional Mexican dish made with a corn based dough mixture

103
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: that is filled with various meats or beans and cheese.

104
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: Tamalies are wrapped and cooked and corn husks or banana leaves,

105
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: but they are removed before eating. Okay, so you kind

106
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: it right. I pretty much had it right. I can

107
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: picture them, but I just like, I've never known how

108
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: you eat them because I've always seen the corn husk

109
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: and it always confused me. Well, you're not the first one, asset.

110
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: There is someone that on Google they say, are you

111
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: supposed to eat the corn husk on the tamali? I

112
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: mean it can't be that bad for your right, it

113
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: says first roll of thumb here when eating Tamali's is

114
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 1: don't consume the wrapper. Corn husks are not meant to

115
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: be eaten. Upset your stomach. Okay, So don't be in

116
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: any of those man. Okay. Well, I want to get

117
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: into more Christmas time coming up, but we're going to

118
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: keep moving along. That'll be coming, so we're not giving

119
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: away too much yet. We had at number six rejected segments,

120
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: and you were on the rejected segments for the first time,

121
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: like all year well, I think ever, I for years

122
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: we've been doing rejected segments, and to be honest, I

123
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: get a little jealous if you know you don't make

124
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: the list, like you want to make the list, even

125
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: if it's for something terrible that you came up with,

126
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: because it's in a way it's making us segment eventually

127
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: because it's rejected. So I don't know, even though it's

128
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: a rejected segment, it's kind of fun that it popped

129
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: up well, and I like giving a little behind the

130
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: scenes here. We've talked about before on this podcast how

131
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: we all have to send it in show prep. Everybody

132
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: sends in personal prep, and we send it news stories

133
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: and that's kind of how Bobby decides what we're going

134
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: to talk about. But we don't know what gets chosen

135
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: until it happens, or it never happens, and so on

136
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: the best bits. I'll share rejected segments sometime, But what

137
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: is a segment thinking just in your past year and

138
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: I'm putting you on the spot here that you sent

139
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,679
Speaker 1: and you're like, dang, this is gold, but it didn't

140
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: get chosen. Oh gosh, I know I'm putting you on

141
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: the spot because there's sometimes I'll send something now like, oh,

142
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: this is so good and it doesn't get shows. I'm like, dang,

143
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: maybe so that could Yeah, I've really I mean, this

144
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: is on the spot, so I would have to think

145
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: about it. If you have one, you could share it

146
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: and then I could think of it. Do you have

147
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: one that you sent in that you wish would have

148
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,239
Speaker 1: gotten played? I mean there are like but I've also

149
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: what I've turned in the best Bits too, is just

150
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: like all of my personal reject acted segments. So the

151
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: things we end up talking about are things that didn't

152
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: make the show, and so it's like best Fits is

153
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: personal Morgan rejection basically, oh really, it's kind of like

154
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: half of the conduct that comes in, and then I

155
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: make up kind of other pieces of content, but I

156
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: have learned that I've just used them, so they're not

157
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: totally they're rejected from the big show, but not rejected

158
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: from my podcast. Well, oh okay, I sent in something.

159
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: I just started to look through my prep and I

160
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: was kind of shocked that this didn't get selected. I

161
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: don't know that it would get rejected because it's bad,

162
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: but I don't know, maybe it wasn't good enough. But

163
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: it's a pro tip for people. Maybe you don't know this.

164
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: If you have anything Lululemon, they will exchange anything, even

165
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: if you've haven't had it for years, and they'll give

166
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: you a brand new one if there's a quality issue.

167
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: And I learned this tip from my daughter. She heard

168
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: hurt at school that if there's any pilling, you know

169
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: the little balls that form on sabby, like even the

170
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: tiniest amount, that you can go in if you have

171
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: a pair of leggings and say hey, there's pilling right here,

172
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: and if they're indeed it is, then they'll say, okay,

173
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: go grab a brand new pair of leggings. And she

174
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: took a pair of mine from my closet because I

175
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I don't really believe you. This can't

176
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: really be true. And I said, I'm not gonna be

177
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: a part of this. You can go in because I

178
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: was sort of embarrassed. And she went into Lula Limon

179
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: and she did it, and she came out with a

180
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: brand new pair of leggings. What, yeah, I have so

181
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: many with that. I mean, I've just bought like, those

182
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: are my favorite leggings to work out in, and so

183
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: because they're not cheap, so they and I then I

184
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: got curious and I looked it up and let me

185
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: see what I also submitted with the prep when I

186
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: turned that in. Because I was still shocked, so I

187
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: googled Lula Limon's policy and it says that they have

188
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: a quality promise. If our product doesn't perform for you

189
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: will take it back and they stand behind the performance

190
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: of their leggings and yoga gear. So you can claim

191
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 1: this quote unquote warranty by bringing the leggings and proof

192
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: of purchase to your local Lulu Limen store where they

193
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: can issue and exchange for a brand new pair. So

194
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: did you have the receipt for that? Still? How did

195
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: you show proof of purchase? Didn't? So that's that's that's

196
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: from their website. But we I'm just saying we did it.

197
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: I So, I don't know. You may have to have

198
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: proof of purchase, but if you have the lu Limen

199
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: has the logo, then you know you bought them from

200
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: a lu Lulu Limon store. I mean, yeah, try saying

201
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: that fast. Yeah, I mean is there a limit? I

202
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. I guarantee you, Stashier, I'll

203
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: go do it for you, though, She'll take five in

204
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 1: That girl is not scared. Yea, I need a stash

205
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: here in my life because I'm like, no, it's okay,

206
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: I don't want for whatever reason? Why does that make

207
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: us feel like embarrassed or weird to do that when

208
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 1: it shouldn't right? But it isn't that funny? Don't you

209
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 1: think that would be something interesting to talk about that

210
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: a lot of our listeners would want to know about. Oh,

211
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: although I get that not everybody has a Lulua Limon

212
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: in their area, or that you know everybody is buying

213
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: Lulu Limon, but still just something fun to know in

214
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: case maybe you do get a pair for Christmas, just

215
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: know if they start to pill or do anything that

216
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: you're not happy with, then go grab yourself a brand

217
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: new pair. Oh heck yeah, and they're expensive, so it's

218
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: a great protex yep. Okay, see there was gold. So

219
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: I'm telling y'all, there's little bits of goal just sitting

220
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: in our prep somewhere that we might not have ever shared,

221
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: and you may never hear it, but we heard one

222
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: of them, and I'm glad he shared it. I had

223
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: to include those on the Best Bits this weekend because

224
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: everyone is loving Stevenson's radio show they may not be

225
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: very long clips, but everybody is kind of campaigning right

226
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: now for Stevenson to have his own radio show, his

227
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: thirty second radio show. Yes is Stevenson or I love it?

228
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: And you know what's crazy is by the time he

229
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: gets older, if he just kind of keeps doing this

230
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: over time, he's going to have some radio skills that

231
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: he could put on a resume. Right. No, and this

232
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: is his idea. It's not like I go to my

233
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: kids and say, hey, will you do this for the show.

234
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: I was recording in my podcast room and then he

235
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: sat down on the mic and just started talking, and

236
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: I thought, okay, this is cute. So then I call

237
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: Scoopa Steve and I say, hey, I think we had

238
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: something here, and Stevenson recorded it. He said we could

239
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: use it, so if you want to have some imaging

240
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: made from Steve Sikes who does all our Bobby bones,

241
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: but you know yea, And they turned it around like quick.

242
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: The next day we had imaging and I played it

243
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: for Stevenson. He approved it. It was awesome, and so

244
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: then it debuted and then for the second episode that

245
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 1: he did, episode two of The Stevenson Show, he started

246
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: took it a little more serious. He was more free

247
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 1: flow the first time that I said, of this something

248
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: you want to do, and he was feeling a little

249
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 1: bit shy about it suddenly because it was feeling real

250
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: to him. So he wrote out what he wanted to say,

251
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: gave himself a script, gave himself a script, and he

252
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: read it, and I was just very proud of him.

253
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: And then he said, well, I don't know, you're playing

254
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: the whole bit. Yeah, I'll play in the In the

255
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: best bit's part two, they'll hear the whole bit, so

256
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: people will hear what happened. But I was like, oh, dang,

257
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: both of my kids are hustlers. They are hustlers. I

258
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: love it. Though. They're learning, like grinding early on, and

259
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: that's pretty cool. What else is going on with life?

260
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: How are you doing? How are like the kids doing?

261
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: How just going? We are ready for break? That's how

262
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,599
Speaker 1: we are doing. This has been one heck of a

263
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: year for them too, So I'm excited that they're going

264
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: to get some downtime and to be able to be

265
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: with their cousins and to just relax. And you know,

266
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: Stevenson's still twelve. We's to live in the good life.

267
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: But you know, Seshira just first semester of ninth grade,

268
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: her first semester of finals and the pressure of high school.

269
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: So I'm excited for her to get that downtime. And

270
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: then I think, as parents too, we are so busy

271
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: during the school year when it comes to kids, and

272
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: so quite honestly, I'm thankful we don't have to drive

273
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: them to school. Everybody want to pick them up from school.

274
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: Everybody I want to worry about homework. We don't want

275
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: to worry about studying. So I feel like everybody just

276
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: gets to exhale. There's a normal life stuff that you

277
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: get to sort of hopefully take a break from. But god,

278
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: the mom stuff too, and what comes along with having

279
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: kids that are in school. It's like, okay, so I'm

280
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: sure teachers feel the same way having a Christmas break,

281
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know how teachers do it, honestly,

282
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: but my kids are doing great, and I feel as

283
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: we're all looking forward to twenty twenty three and what

284
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,839
Speaker 1: it has in store, and we're going to do vision

285
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: boards all together over the break. That'll be fun. What

286
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: do you anticipate will be on your vision board? Good question.

287
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: I haven't really I don't. I sort of when I

288
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: get the magazines out and we start cutting, I sort

289
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: of just see what speaks to me, or I'll probably

290
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: think of some words that I would have put on there.

291
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: I think I have a lot of fear that I'm

292
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: working through because of the unknown, and so I want

293
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: to make sure that I put a bunch of boards

294
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: on there that help combat that. Fear is okay to have,

295
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: but I don't want to live in that. I want

296
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: to counter it with something knowing that I don't have

297
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: to be scared for the future and I don't have

298
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: to worry about it, and so probably stuff that will

299
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: remind me of that, and then some career goal stuff.

300
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: Two years ago, I put Delilah on my board. You

301
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: know Delilah, Yeah, Lia, some people know or some people don't. Um,

302
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about. You know what I'm

303
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: talking about, And I just you know, she just always

304
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: had such a great or has she still does what

305
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 1: she does such a great way of connecting with her listeners.

306
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: And so I'll continue that that goal of creating more

307
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: connection and more community by doing you know, a four

308
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: Things live tour. We did the live in which at all,

309
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: but I so I want to make sure I put

310
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: that on my vision board, So I don't, you know,

311
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: let let that go because there's fear in that too,

312
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: you know, putting yourself out there, you know, trying and

313
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: just doing stuff. So we'll see what happens. I love that.

314
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: How many years have you now done a vision board?

315
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: Two for sure, two in the last two years, and

316
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure I've done some in previous years, but two

317
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: in a row, so this would be the third year

318
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: in a row. Have you ever done one? Okay, I haven't,

319
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm asking do you feel like it

320
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: has actually like kind of helped you kind of whether

321
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: it's manifest or just kind of align your goals with

322
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: what well in the new year, Like, do you feel

323
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: like it's really benefiting you in that way? Well, first

324
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: of all, I just think it's a fun way to

325
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: process what you hope things could look like. I like processing.

326
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: That's helpful, and it's a it's an activity to do,

327
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: whether with girlfriends or if you want to get your

328
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: kids involved, and then it gives you that visual so

329
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: you can look at it. It It doesn't mean you don't

330
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: work towards it. You have to. It's not like I'm

331
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: just suddenly gonna you know, be Delila and an all

332
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: fairness manifesting is a very real thing for some people,

333
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: like they just say, and it kind of starts to happen. Yeah,

334
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: but you're working towards something, and so in having a

335
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: reminder of those goals and what they are, what you know,

336
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: a mindset that you want to have, and so that's

337
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: that's what it is about for me, and I would

338
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: encourage you to do it. I mean, you have some

339
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: fun girlfriends that you can invite over and just have

340
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: some wine and put on a fun movie and do

341
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: your vision boards. No, I like this. I'm just getting

342
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: all the things because I've never I've never done one before. Okay, well,

343
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: let's say you do do one's do do do do?

344
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: Let's say you decide to make one. What's something you

345
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: would put on there? Definitely there will be some career

346
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: things on there that are already kind of in the works.

347
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: I just want those to finalize and kind of come

348
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: out and start to happen. And obviously, love, I would

349
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: love to like have love in my life, whether it's

350
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: more relationships with girlfriends or a serious relationship with a partner,

351
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: just love in general that would always stay on there,

352
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: and another one is like a growth growth thing for me.

353
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: I had a ironically a TikTok I watched, like everybody

354
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: always kind of jokes and they're like, dang, this TikTok

355
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: is attacking me. But there was one that pops up

356
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: on my feed and I was like, oh, wow, okay,

357
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: haven't thought or heard of that in that way before.

358
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: That really made me think about something just in my

359
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: past relationships and things I've gone through, and the fact

360
00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: like basically because I've been in a nutshell, what I'm

361
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: What I felt was this therapist was talking about how

362
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: if you've been through a B and C, your body

363
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: will live in basically like constant fight or flight mode

364
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: and you won't realize that that's happening. And they started

365
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: listening off all these ways that you live in fight

366
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 1: or fly, and I was like, holy crap, that's me.

367
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: Like I've genuinely been living my life in fight or

368
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: flight and I didn't even know it because of past

369
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: trauma things that I've gone through in relationships specifically, And

370
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: so next year will be to definitely try and break

371
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: out of that fight or flight. I think I've started

372
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 1: to I can kind of feel it, you know, when

373
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: you can feel like your life kind of changing, you

374
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: feel things or happening. Yes, something's going on, and I've

375
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: felt that, but I do feel like in the next year,

376
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 1: I'm hoping I can kind of like genuinely break out

377
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: of that entirely. And so, but that was new that

378
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 1: just happened in the last few days where I was like, oh, yeah,

379
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: I really need to like dive into this and look

380
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: at this a little bit more. And so I think

381
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: that would be on there too, and more volunteer work

382
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: for Rimy and I because she is loving being a

383
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: therapy dog and that is so rewarding for both of

384
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: us and it just fills both our cups. So yeah, yeah,

385
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: I think those would all be on there. And I

386
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: think that, yeah, if you can work on getting out

387
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: of that, if you realize that your brain was stuck

388
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: in that, it's gonna be so freeing you'll start to

389
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: process of differently. Yes, And I'm scared because I know

390
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be like really terrifying because I think

391
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: I've gotten into that to protect myself because of how

392
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: much pain I've gone through. But yeah, I gotta get

393
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: out of it. Gotta get out of the pain. And

394
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: it's a weird it's a weird thing. I think it's

395
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: just a little part of me because I don't think

396
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: I've been living in pain for a while. I just

397
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: think it's been inside of me and just kind of

398
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: sitting there. It's like a little angel on my shoulder

399
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 1: that's just kind of been hanging out for a while.

400
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: It's fascinating what our brains can do to protect us,

401
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: and they're doing it without It's not like you tell

402
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: your brain, oh, okay, I would like to protect myself today,

403
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: so send me into fight flight or freeze please. Your

404
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: brain is just doing it. And so the encouragement though,

405
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: in the beauty of it is you know you can

406
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: rewire your brain. So but you have to put in

407
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: the work. Yes, And it's just another thing to add

408
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: to my to do list of things I need to do.

409
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: You need to put a big brain on your vision board.

410
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: I do how to do list. It'll be like laundry, vacuum, also,

411
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: work on your brain, a little bit of classicity. Let's

412
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: do all these things. So I think those did I

413
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: did I spark anything that might be added to yours?

414
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, I need to add this, I would

415
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 1: add another movie for acting in some way. I guess

416
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be another movie, but maybe if

417
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,959
Speaker 1: the Holiday Harmony movie from this year gets a sequel,

418
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 1: there would be part two, yes, and I would assume

419
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: it would come next Christmas, so that means filming would

420
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: maybe be in May. So I don't know. Am I

421
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 1: putting Holiday Harmony Part two on the vision board or

422
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 1: just really any auditions or putting myself out there for

423
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: different things. And part of that is trying to also

424
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 1: move past the some of the fear that I have.

425
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, well I can be proactive. I think

426
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: there's some times in my career where I've been very

427
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: reactive and passive and just like okay, well if this

428
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: comes to me, dada, but really putting myself out there

429
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: more and putting things into different buckets. So I'm trying

430
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 1: to visualize a lot of different buckets and if I

431
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: can do certain things. But I mean I have my

432
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: family bucket. That means I want to deposit things in

433
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: there too. It's not just all career buckets, but a

434
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: bucket for myself because you know, I want to deposit

435
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,159
Speaker 1: there as well. And yeah, I see different buckets, and

436
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: one of those buckets would be acting in some form

437
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: or fashion. You know what I was just thinking about

438
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: hearing you talk about your daughter a little bit ago,

439
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: and you talking about the fear thing that you're working through.

440
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: I think it's really cool to see and the just

441
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: kind of like, I don't know what just caught on

442
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: for me that when you were talking about all of it,

443
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: that you you know, you chose your daughter when you

444
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: made the adoption process in a way when you guys

445
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: were going through that, and she is so fearless and

446
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: she is so putting herself out there, and it's almost

447
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: like you have this tiny human in your life. She's

448
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,880
Speaker 1: not tiny anymore, but this tiny human in your life

449
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: who's teaching you that while you're working through that, and

450
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 1: you're seeing her do that every day, and now you're

451
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 1: working through that to make sure that you can do

452
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: that every day almost with her. Yeah, No, it is neat.

453
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 1: I think I have my own little living inspiration. Yeah. Well,

454
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 1: this kind of combination of just how everything works out,

455
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: and it's cool to see kind of the full like

456
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm witnessing kind of this full circle

457
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: moment for you that something not only was it going

458
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: to impact the rest of your life in multiple different ways,

459
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: but in such a very vulnerable and personal way for you. Yeah,

460
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: the kids are gifts to me. For sure. I have

461
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: learned more about myself and becoming their mom than I

462
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: ever could have, you know, not yea in our life,

463
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: and I would I didn't think that. I thought, Okay, well,

464
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: and I'm sure parents say this a lot, but especially

465
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: in the adoption process and different things that you may

466
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: well you actually you may encounter some different struggles with

467
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 1: biological children. But I know for sure my experience with

468
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: adoption has stretched me and grown me. And you know, unfortunately,

469
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: because I've been willing to go there, I've had to

470
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: face some stuff from my childhood that you know, and

471
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 1: things I needed to work through so that I could

472
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: be a better mom to them that they needed to be.

473
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: And I don't know without them, I don't know that

474
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: I would have gone there. So I love their gift. Well,

475
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: I wanted to show from an outsiders perspective that I

476
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: think it's really cool what's happening. Thank you getting to

477
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: see a witness it's pretty awesome. We also had four

478
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: king in Country on the show week and they were

479
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: so good and their interview was really fun, but more

480
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 1: than anything, their performance of Little Drummer Boy, which just

481
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: it will put you in the Christmas spirit immediately. And

482
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: if you it's it's kind of going viral on our

486
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 1: of connection to for King and Country, and I want

487
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: you to share that because I think you got to

488
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: talk about a little bit in the interview, but not entirely. Well,

489
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: I well, I'm friends with their cousin and so we

490
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 1: our families hang out, and I've known for a long

491
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,239
Speaker 1: time how crazy talented they are. Their whole family is

492
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: insanely talented. It's the cousin also talented. Yes he he's

493
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: no longer in a band, but he was. And then

494
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: their sisters Rebecca Saint James, she's like a super successful

495
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: Christian artist. In fact, Joel and I were talking after

496
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: the performance and he's like, I used to be her roadie,

497
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: Like I was her road guy. I was doing everything

498
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 1: for her. And that was before they realized they were

499
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: going to eat and form a band and go try

500
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: to do their own thing, and he showed that they're

501
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: working on a really cool movie about their family. They

502
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: just have a very very interesting life and they are

503
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: solid people from if you happen to be a fan

504
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: of them, if you're wondering, well, are they really as

505
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: awesome as they seem? The answer is yes, they really

506
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: really are. And I'm thankful to know them and their

507
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: family and that you know that they made their way

508
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: to the States from Australia, because I mean, what a

509
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: gift that they have. And yeah, that in studio performance

510
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: probably is one of the top performances we've ever had

511
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 1: in all the years that we've been doing this, you know.

512
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: And I got introduced to for King and Country when

513
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: I first moved to Nashville and we had one of

514
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 1: the pop stations here does a suicide prevention concert and

515
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 1: it was the first year they were putting it on,

516
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: and all of the acts were obviously coming to perform

517
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: for free, and Working in Country was one of them

518
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: on there, and I was doing social media for the

519
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: event and taking photos and all that stuff, and I

520
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: remember watching them performed and it nearly stopped me in

521
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: my tracks. Never heard of him before in my life,

522
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,679
Speaker 1: first time experience. There's multiple different kinds of artists that

523
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: came and performed at this like charity event, and they

524
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: were my favorite by far. And ever since then, like,

525
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: I've enjoyed watching their journey, I've enjoyed seeing the collaborations

526
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: they've put out with. I know they have a collap

527
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: with Dolly, Yes, Like that's how talented they are that

528
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: Dolly was like, I want to work with you. And

529
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: it's just really cool to see because that was kind

530
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: of the beginning of their career when they had come.

531
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: They were still smaller at the time, but he still

532
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: had I'm not sure which band member, what his name was,

533
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 1: but he still had the little microwave instrument. He was

534
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: still using that that was still like and I see

535
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: microwave intriment. That's obviously not what it is, but that's

536
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: what everybody likes to call it online because it sort

537
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: of looks like it looks like a microwave. Yeah, yes,

538
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 1: And that's Joel playing that. Yes, and he had that

539
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: and so like, they've stayed true to so much of

540
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: their roots and just a cool experience to see them

541
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: like now in studio also as well, performing even more

542
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: better than when I first saw them perform, So like

543
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 1: just totally crazy, and I want to know too. Any

544
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: that you are cool with sharing, but do you have

545
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: other like special connections to artists that we don't really

546
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 1: know about because you're obviously not going to post about

547
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: them all the time if they're your friends or you're

548
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: hanging out with people, and you don't have to share

549
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: them if you don't want to. But I figure out

550
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: to give a little behind the scenes of maybe Amy's life.

551
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: There's some, but yeah, I don't. Some that are sometimes

552
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: occasionally a text with someone that is like very famous

553
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 1: or to my childhood self or my younger self, and

554
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: now we're in this space so it's like, oh, well

555
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 1: this is interesting and that felt weird, but I won't.

556
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: And then others that are rising stars that I feel

557
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: as though one day I hope they knock get out

558
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 1: of the park and have so much success, but we'll

559
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: be able to think back early on in our friendship.

560
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: One that comes to mind as Britney Spencer. I met

561
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: her at a grocery store and we became friends. She

562
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: was the only one. She worked at a natural food

563
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,719
Speaker 1: store where she made juice, and I would go in

564
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 1: most every day and want to get beat juice. And

565
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,199
Speaker 1: I liked beat juice, lemon and ginger, and she always

566
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,239
Speaker 1: made the perfect ratio. Her combo was spot on. It

567
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: always tasted really good because you get too much ginger

568
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: and like, ah, it's it's a lot. So I got

569
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: to know her that way, and I would always come

570
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 1: in and she would know. She'd be like, I got

571
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: you at me, I'm gonna make it. And then she

572
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: never revealed that she did music. I had no idea

573
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: she was an artist or even thinking about trying to

574
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: be an artist. And then just the relationship evolved and developed,

575
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: and we started following each other on Instagram and we

576
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: started DM ing, and then she came up to me

577
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: at the grocery store one day. Actually we hadn't been

578
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: following each other yet because I didn't know I didn't

579
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: know her Instagram yet. She came up to me and said, Hey,

580
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 1: just wanted to you know, I'm not gonna be able

581
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: to make your juice anymore. I'm hitting the road. I'm

582
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: going to do some background singing for some people, So

583
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: I'm going on tour as a background singer. And I thought,

584
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I had no idea what you've even singing?

585
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, give me your Instagram, like let's

586
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: keep in touch. And so that's what we did. We

587
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: started dm ing and then that evolved into from background

588
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: singing to the next thing note to her now doing

589
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: her own thing and having songs and singing with Marion Morris.

590
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: And Marion Morris played at Bridgetone Arena a couple of

591
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: weeks ago and Brittany opened for her and for Brittany,

592
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: Marin was one of her idols, like completely Look, so

593
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: Brittany is pinching herself all the time. And Brittany is

594
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: a huge blessing to our family too, because you know,

595
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: my children are black. I'm white, Brittany's black. My daughter

596
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: has hair things that I will never understand because I

597
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: can't I'm don't have the same type of hair at all.

598
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: And so Brittany will come over at you know, at

599
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: the drop of the hat and be like, Okay, I

600
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: got you. We can fix this. She hooks me up

601
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: with different hair people that she In fact, we have

602
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: an appointment tomorrow with the squirrel Jade that Britney hooked

603
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: us up with. Brittany took my daughter to Lizzo. She

604
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 1: just makes she is involved with making sure that she's

605
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: present and especially my daughter's life, because I think it's

606
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: important for to have someone that she can talk to

607
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: you about certain things that her white mom is not

608
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: going to understand at all whatsoever. And so Britney has

609
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: been a gift and it's just kind of cool that

610
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: it started at the grocery store years and years ago.

611
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: And I even did that in Nicole kidmin event not

612
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: too long ago. And I had no idea when I

613
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: booked it that Brittany was going to be seeing the

614
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 1: performer for the night, not even opening it, and Nicole

615
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: had hand picked her for the evening. She had said,

616
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 1: you know, when I was talking to some people about

617
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: the flow of the night, and I had been with

618
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: Nicole sort of all throughout the day because we had

619
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: an afternoon thing we had to do and then the

620
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: thing at night, and I some of the people that

621
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: were putting it together said, oh yeah, Nicole said specifically,

622
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: we need to get Britney Spencer for this, and so

623
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: then I got to hang out with her like a

624
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: work thing, and that was a really cool moment being

625
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: backstage before she went out. I felt like I was

626
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: grinning ear to ear and watching someone really, I'm like,

627
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: I can't believe this. Look at you. You used to

628
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: be making my beat juice, slim and ginger a situation

629
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: and now she's up there at which speaking of songs

630
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: and writing, um, you know my podcast Outweigh, which is

631
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: released every Saturday that's dedicated to eating disorder recovery or

632
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: body image issues. Brittany and I co wrote the song

633
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: that plays at the beginning of that episode, and it's like, well,

634
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: she came up with the melody, and then Stashier and

635
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: Brittany and I wrote it together, and it's like, I

636
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: won't let my body outweigh outweigh everything that I'm made of.

637
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: And then there's this first where we could talk about

638
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: missing out on family meals around the table because what

639
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: grandma made is bad and we're not able, and it

640
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: I just I love that we put that song together

641
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: and it that's that's my story about Rising Star that

642
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: I hope she just blows up and is amazing. But

643
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: some of the bigger ones, I don't know. It's weird

644
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: sometimes if they send a text, but it's not like

645
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: I'm you know, hanging out with them. Well, what I'm

646
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: hearing in these two things is that you are now

647
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: a songwriter and you Brittany and Nicole kim and are

648
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: our best friends. Oh yeah, that's exactly what I said.

649
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: That's that's what I heard. That's it. Yeah, sorry, I've

650
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: totally rambled. But Britney's I love it. I love it

651
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: being the host of women of I Heart Country too.

652
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: You love seeing women like do their thing and getting

653
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: to pursue their dreams and do what they love and um,

654
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: it's cool to watch. Yeah, And that's just one example.

655
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: Britney's one example. But I mean if if I did more,

656
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: we'd be here all day. Yes, hey, and one day

657
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'll get them all out of amy, don't

658
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 1: you worry, and we'll share all. So I don't mean

659
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: one example of just like in my life. I just

660
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: mean one example of women that's quite see like killing

661
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: them both. But I also get more stories out of

662
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: you another day. But yes, I agree. I love seeing

663
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: ladies out there killing it and also ladies supporting other

664
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: women and that's really cool. So we also had the

665
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: draft of Christmas songs this week. You won halla, I

666
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: never win drafts. Yeah, so proud. I wanted to talk

667
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: about some other Christmas songs that like I wanted to choose.

668
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: There's just so many, especially because we were being very

669
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: specific in choosing artists. And I'll let you think see

670
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: if there's any that like you would have chose. Hard

671
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: Candy Christmas from Dolly Parton was a missed opportunity for me.

672
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: I feel like I should have chosen that. Yeah, that's good. Yeah,

673
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: that's a good one. Where are You Christmas? From faith Hill?

674
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: Have you heard that one? The one in the Grinch

675
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: I have. I don't know, I might have to look

676
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: that one up. So it's the Jim Carrey the Grinch Halla,

677
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: Grinchhill Christmas And she's like, where are you Chrismas. It's

678
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: like the little girl seeing it. But then faith Hill

679
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: did like a rendition for like the movie or whatever. Okay,

680
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: great song, great Christmas song. Have yourself a Merry Little

681
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: Christmas from Judy Garland. Do you know that one? Yes?

682
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: Of course Judy Garland. She also did The Wizard of Oz.

683
00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: She was the um What was the song? Rainbow? The

684
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:05,240

00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,840

687
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: grande fan day. I know it's weird. I know, I

688
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: know it's okay, it's like, hey, hit or miss. The

689
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: rest of these are kind of like some pop artists.

690
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: Mistletoe from Justin Bieber, Oh, yes, so good. I feel

691
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: that one totally should have made it. That one is

692
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: a jail. I have that on my list and I

693
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: didn't do it to listen to that one this week, right,

694
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: and then I'll be home for Christmas. And this one

695
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: stop pop which is Being Crosby and nobody chose a

696
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: Being Crosby song, and he's like big mister Christmas. Yeah,

697
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: he's mister Christmas before Brett Eldridge was Mister Christmas. Which, okay,

698
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: I had to look up. I don't know if this

699
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: is what Dolly was singing about, but I just got curious.

700
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: What is hard candy Christmas mean? And it says the

701
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: phrase hard candy Christmas refers to a time when families

702
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: who did not have much money could only afford to

703
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: give hard candy or penny candy to their children for Christmas.

704
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: The hard candy metaphor suggests that life can simultaneously be

705
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: hard and sweet, oh, which you know, Dolly grew up

706
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 1: extremely poor. Um so anyway, I don't. She was just

707
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: thinking about like hard cana. Now there's like this a

708
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: whole meaning behind but it's I mean that, I mean

709
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 1: hard and sweet, but like you're doing you're doing your

710
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: best to do it. But of course, in true Dolly fashion,

711
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: there is a much bigger meaning behind the song. And

712
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: then it says, here, okay, is hard Candy Christmas really

713
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 1: a Christmas song? And apparently Dolly never considered it to

714
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 1: be about Christmas at all. She said, it's kind of

715
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: funny that people think it's a Christmas song and it's

716
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 1: really not. But it's as Christmas in the title, I know.

717
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 1: She said, here, it's really let me sorry an ad

718
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: pop definitely so annoying. It's really just about people having

719
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: hard times and saying it's like a hard candy Christmas,

720
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: like when you're so poor that all you get for

721
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: Christmas is a piece of hard candy. But then it

722
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: is about Christmas, it is, but you can use it

723
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 1: year round. How about that, Like, well, it's like a

724
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 1: hard candy Christmas. It can be you know. I really

725
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 1: like hearing the stories beshind songs. But then sometimes I

726
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:06,839
Speaker 1: hear and I'm like, that is not what I wanted

727
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: it to be. And now I don't want to know

728
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: this because you kind of put your own meaning to songs, right, yeah,

729
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: And then what did you think Hard Candy Christmas was about?

730
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, honestly, I just always sing it and

731
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: I loved it. I thought it was generally about like

732
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: hard candy and like Christmas time, and I don't know

733
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 1: it is it is, but clearly there's more meaning behind

734
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: us than that. So now now that I know she

735
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: doesn't consider her Christmas song, but I didn't choose it.

736
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,399
Speaker 1: But when I was shocked you didn't choose with George

737
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: Strait's song Christmas Cookies, I know I almost did. Did

738
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: you have it on your list? I did, But then

739
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know that everybody's gonna love

740
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: this because I don't know that everybody knows it, And

741
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: then I don't know that they're gonna love it, so

742
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: I just kind of had to go with the hits.

743
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 1: I mean, you did great, obviously you won, but I

744
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: Christmas heck, yeah, that was that was like a third round.

745
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: That was a big third round pick. And I didn't

746
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: even have that on my list. I was surprised nobody

747
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 1: picked it because that I've already played that a million

748
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: times this holiday season. Yeah, yes, so many. But yeah,

749
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: I just want to talk about Christmas songs for a second.

750
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: Maybe we just added some more to people's playlist they

751
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: could have this week coming up. And speaking of getting

752
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: in the Christmas spirit, we have the y Old Tide

753
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: Carolers on this week and they sang a great rendition

754
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: of Red Nosed Reindeer about Lunchbox in the show and

755
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: it's hilarious. Abby is part of the Yuld Tide Carolers

756
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: and this was her first time performing with them on

757
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: our show and that was super fun. But I want

758
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: to know what you're going to be doing this Christmas.

759
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: What do your plans look like for the Christmas holiday?

760
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 1: Amy going to Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Ooh okay? And will

00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: you guys open presents on Christmas Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day? Yes,

762
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: we do, Christmas Day. My kids are begging to open

763
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: one present this coming weekend or this weekend as people

764
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: are listening to this like a whole week before Christmas. Okay, Okay,

765
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, what is this weird tradition? They're like, please,

766
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: and so probably gonna do that. Somehow they've convinced me that, okay,

767
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: we'll do that, But then everything else would beat Christmas Day.

768
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know. I don't know if it's going

769
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: to be snowing a ton or what the weather is

770
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: going to be. Like, I want to read a lot,

771
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 1: cozy by the fire, spend time with family, maybe go skiing.

772
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: I haven't decided yet. It's a lot of work to

773
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 1: go skiing. And some people my family are avid skiers

774
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,959
Speaker 1: and they are really really good, and I'm just chill.

775
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm not horrible, but I just cruise, take the time,

776
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: having fun. I don't want to go do anything too calm.

777
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: If every once in a while it's fun to have

778
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: a little bit of a challenge, but I'm not looking

779
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 1: for that the whole time. And then it's so much work,

780
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: all the clothes and getting up to the mountain and

781
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 1: then being so cold, and then but I'm sure I'll

782
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: get suckered into going at least one day. Dear kids

783
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 1: like to go skiing. No, they've tried it and they

784
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 1: hated it. Being from Haiti, they were like, what is

785
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 1: this freezing cold white stuff? But they both have said

786
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: they might give it another go. They've they've tried it

787
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: multiple times. I think the last time we went they

788
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 1: just didn't do it at all. And then but this

789
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: year I guess because they had a break because COVID

790
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: and different things. They're like, you know, if it's a

791
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 1: good weather day, then we'll give it a go. I

792
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 1: like it. At least they keep trying it. Maybe maybe

793
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 1: you can look into like snowmobiling for them, Maybe that's

794
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: more there. Yeah, speed, maybe it's snowmobiling a thing and

795
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: Pugosa springs. Yeah, people have those sort ofmentalm or go

796
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: do something. Um we I got Stevenson some He's not

797
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: gonna be listening to this, so he won't know. But

798
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 1: for Christmas, I got him some electric gloves that charge

799
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: and so maybe that will help keep him warm. Because

800
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: my children, seriously, the cold gets so bad. It's not

801
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,919
Speaker 1: just like oh I'm cold, it's cold and they start crying. Yeah,

802
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: and so that's how you know they're hurt. Yeah, they

803
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 1: they were raised an entirely different environment than that. It

804
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 1: makes sense. Yeah, Well, I like I was thinking about

805
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: this because and maybe if you hear this, it'll it'll

806
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 1: make you think of something. But I was thinking of

807
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: like the evolution of Christmas is over time, and how

808
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 1: like it started when I was probably like I don't know,

809
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: from like one to ten years old, it was like

810
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: first thing in the morning, we woke up at like

811
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: six am. There were stockings stuffed and it was like

812
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 1: we checked about you know, Santa's cookies and everything he

813
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: ate and did the reindeer eat their food that we

814
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: laid out for them, and the whole like show baying

815
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: of Christmas. And then from like ten to fifteen, it

816
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, we got up a little bit later

817
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: because we liked to sleep in and we'd open up

818
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: all our presents. Still made sure to open up all

819
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: the presents before it was food time. And then like

820
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 1: then it was like fifteen to twenty, and it got

821
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: a little bit later. We stopped waking up quite as early.

822
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: And then like now twenties to thirties, it's like we

823
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: roll out of bed. When we roll out of bed,

824
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 1: we might get dressed up, we might not wear any

825
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: makeup or anything. You just never know what everybody's feeling

826
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: that day. And then we'll maybe open a few gifts

827
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:53,280
Speaker 1: and then we'll eat lunch in the afternoon time. And

828
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,479
Speaker 1: obviously the toys and the gifts and stuff that people

829
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,240
Speaker 1: get have evolved too. But I was just thinking about

830
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 1: how it it's fun to look back and see how

831
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: your Christmas evolves over your life and like the things

832
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: that have happened. And as you get older, do you

833
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: like look at yours and doll and you're like, Wow,

834
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: mine's really like shifted and changed over time. I feel like,

835
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: at least for the past fifteen years, mine has been

836
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: very much the same, except for adding kids to the

837
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 1: mix five years ago. But we've been going to Colorado

838
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 1: for a very long time. But see what I love

839
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: that that's a really strong tradition. And then I mean,

840
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: I think back to my try. I don't know, I

841
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 1: don't have strong Christmas memories with I mean going to

842
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: Alabama to visit my grandma and my cousins on my

843
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 1: mom's side, that's mostly what I remember to be a

844
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: very and my grandma had this silver gold you know

845
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: those vintage, but hers is a legit vintage. I kind

846
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 1: of wish that she when she passed away, I inherited it.

847
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: I don't know where it is now, but it would

848
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: probably sell for so much money. Now, except for my

849
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: grandma smoked like all day long, and so it probably

850
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,479
Speaker 1: smelled really really bad. Oh yeah, and bowling. We would

851
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: always go bowling around Christmas time because my grandmother was

852
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: the manager of a bowling alley. She worked nights. What

853
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: wasn't in bowling alleies my my mom's family, I think

854
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 1: as my mom's filming or my dad's they owned a

855
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: bowling alley. Yeah, what what was the thing in bowling alleys? Then?

856
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. My grandma just loved a bowl and

857
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 1: she thought, I'm here all the time at night, might

858
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: as well manage this place and get paid to be here.

859
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it makes sense. And so that's where

860
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: he would hang out. She would give a bunch of

861
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,320
Speaker 1: quarters to go play video games or then we would bowl,

862
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: and there was a nursery there and everyone was allowed

863
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: to smoke. My okay, my cousins like spent time in

864
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: the bowling alley nursery. Okay, because my aunt would join

865
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,439
Speaker 1: the league with my grandma. And yeah, I've talked about

866
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: it with my cousins. Now we're like, this is all

867
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: so bizarre. Could you imagine right now going to a

868
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: smoke filled bowling alley and dropping your baby off in

869
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: the Bowling Alley nursery. I got quite the image going

870
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: on in my head. Yes, that's amazing. And that's where

871
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: my grandma taught my sister how to play cards, and

872
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: because they would sit around and just smoke play cards

873
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,280
Speaker 1: in this back room. But we did get unlimited fountain drinks,

874
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: so that was cool. Well, that's exciting as a kid

875
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: when your grandma's a manager. You got the hook up.

876
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what are you doing? Are you going

877
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: to Kansas? Yeah, I'm making the twelve hour drive back

878
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 1: to Kansas. It's gonna be rough, but we're gonna do

879
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: it and spend time with family, a lot of family time.

880
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: I haven't seen my niece and nephew for a year,

881
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: since last Christmas. I'm very excited to see them and

882
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: spend some time with them. And after Christmas and that

883
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,919
Speaker 1: whole holiday, I'll be going up to Colorado for some

884
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: snowboarding as well. Oh yeah, and then back in for

885
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve and back to work after that. We're

886
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 1: in Colorado, my best friend lives in Denver, and then

887
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: I think we're going to drive up and go to

888
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: Veil for snowboarding. Oh yeah, that sounds so fancy. I know,

889
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: I've never been to Vail. I'm like, okay, yeah, let's

890
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: do it. You know, I'm trying to make sure I

891
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: just do more things. Yes, me trying to just continue

892
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: to keep doing more. And so I haven't snowboard since

893
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: I was in college, and I've been wanting to go back.

894
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: And so we're at least spending one day. The other

895
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: two days we might just be hanging out exploring Denver,

896
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: but one of those we're gonna go up and snowboard

897
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: in Bail. But we also got it before the prices

898
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: went to like three hundred a day. It was like

899
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: a hundred bucks when we bought our tickets, I was like, score,

900
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 1: that's great for me. Yeah for a day pass, yes,

901
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 1: I can handle that. I can handle that, But like

902
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 1: three hundred for a day pass a little too much.

903
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 1: So we did get those early. But yeah, that'll it'll

904
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 1: be a fun one. I'm excited. So I also want

00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,319

964
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 1: like Internet bandwidth, but just capacity to get something like

965
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:45,800
