Speaker 1: full list of all this. We should have written it down,
Speaker 1: but we have it in our brain to just go
Speaker 1: through it again, like we're doing right now. Of all
Speaker 1: the questions we want to ask her, if you know
Speaker 1: Travis is going to be there, do you have mints
Speaker 1: on hand to give him a kiss with fresh breath afterwards?
Speaker 1: Like do you spray perfume? Like before? I have a
Speaker 1: million in one questions. The costume changes? Are you just
Speaker 1: closing your eyes and stepping right through it? Somebody's putting
Speaker 1: your shoes in, changing your look, putting them Mike packs on?
Speaker 1: Where is the pe break in the show? Exactly? So,
Speaker 1: Megan one Hoffman. If you were interested in the questions
Speaker 1: we had, there's a lot of them. Lisa Vanderveer favorite

Speaker 1: I crush red licorice. I could whip through a whole
Speaker 1: box of that Bad Boy. Also like doing the I
Speaker 1: haven't been to a movie theater now since pre COVID,
Speaker 1: Like I don't know even the last movie I saw,
Speaker 1: but I know it was before COVID. And I do
Speaker 1: love a popcorn situation and throw some Eminem's in there. Ooh,
Speaker 1: I love that too. I love a popcorn situation, and

Speaker 1: to you who struggles with dental hygiene? Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I need to say something. I needed someone with horrific.
Speaker 1: Sure did. And here's the thing. I didn't even that's
Speaker 1: not true. I did realize it, but I would always
Speaker 1: chalk it up that they were like always drinking coffee,
Speaker 1: and so I was like, oh, because I have a
Speaker 1: real you and I are like have a phobia about
Speaker 1: this to the point where it's like the mince and
Speaker 1: the gum are on hand, and look, we do love
Speaker 1: a coffee. But yeah, I didn't even realize how bad
Speaker 1: that person's breath was until other people told me. What
Speaker 1: is this always a theme with me? Anytime I end
Speaker 1: up finally breaking up with these weirdos, everyone's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, we should have told you. Why don't you
Speaker 1: tell me and be a real friend In the moment
Speaker 1: your boyfriend's breath was terrible. Oh, I've had a guy
Speaker 1: friend say that to me. Why didn't you tell me
Speaker 1: she was crazy? Why didn't you tell me this? Because
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't really talk sense to somebody who's
Speaker 1: trying to make it work, or I mean, maybe you
Speaker 1: throw out a little bit and then if they're thinking
Speaker 1: about it, they're like, oh, yeah, okay, but I love
Speaker 1: okay when people are like, why didn't you tell me?
Speaker 1: Not that I'm blasting you, but I'm blasting no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I know what you're saying. Said that to me, No,
Speaker 1: I know you're the only one that did tell me.
Speaker 1: On some situations. Now, for the dental hygiene, I would
Speaker 1: say you just always Dominique, and I talk about this
Speaker 1: sweet Dominique because when she's doing makeup, like I'm cognizant,
Speaker 1: like give me mints. I don't want to breathe in
Speaker 1: your face. And there was a situation the boys were
Speaker 1: getting their makeup done the other day and then they
Speaker 1: were talking about someone who didn't have great hygiene, and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, offer them a mint
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah. So I would say, just be very
Speaker 1: overt about who wants a mint, who wants a gum?
Speaker 1: And then talk about it about somebody else and then
Speaker 1: maybe they'll get the hint, be like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I had someone had the worst breast the other day,
Speaker 1: but yeah, or I bring it up about myself, I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, my breathday is so horrific. You do that,
Speaker 1: you're wanting to stick a gum? You shove it in
Speaker 1: their mouth? Oh okay, coffee Sarah from Mallion whatever favorite
Speaker 1: city in the US for a girl's trip? We are
Speaker 1: early thirties. That's a great question. I mean people do Vegas.
Speaker 1: New York is great if you go, great hotels, great restaurants,
Speaker 1: great bars. What else? C I just came. I just
Speaker 1: landed in Nashville and the airport tells you that the bachelorette.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sweet, think the trips are still alive and
Speaker 1: well in this city. This is a fun city. Though.
Speaker 1: To do a girl's trip, you can walk around a
Speaker 1: lot of places. Obviously you can do the Broadway thing.
Speaker 1: Because early thirties, you guys can still handle that. Aaron
Speaker 1: and I are what our version of like a girl's
Speaker 1: night out as being in our Jami by ten o'clock
Speaker 1: on that couch with red wine. But yeah, Vegas, New York,
Speaker 1: New York, like do a Broadway play strong show and
Speaker 1: then go out at night. Yeah, NAPA is great. Also,
Speaker 1: I want to do Martha's Vineyard and get it. Well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I'm also that's like a that's like a fifty fifty.
Speaker 1: We're in the other bracket of this, sure are. How
Speaker 1: about when I had to fill out forms the other
Speaker 1: day for a thing we were doing, and it still
Speaker 1: is so antiquated. It says single, married, divorced, and I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: wonder if you're in between one of those. I'm not single,
Speaker 1: I'm not married. I mean I am divorced, but like,
Speaker 1: why do I have to check a divorce box? Where's
Speaker 1: the like in the relationship box? Oh my god? Yeah, anyways,
Speaker 1: good point. I digress. Leila uh Ria. Fun date night
Speaker 1: ideas that are better than just going out to eat?
Speaker 1: You and Jarrett cuties. You guys had one the other day.
Speaker 1: You sent us a video a fun date night. You
Speaker 1: guys went bulling. Oh yeah, I kicked his ass. It
Speaker 1: was awesome. So full disclosure. We did a Vegas trip
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago with Fox and they did
Speaker 1: a great time with Chris. I actually set it up.
Speaker 1: It was it was a great time. We had our
Speaker 1: boss's phone. We were doing the playliffs. Awesome, such a
Speaker 1: great time. Kevin Burkhart great at bowling. Wow. And so
Speaker 1: was Tom Rinaldi. Yeah, everybody so enough. So I had
Speaker 1: a PTSD moment because when we were bowling with Fox,
Speaker 1: I was so bad that I threw the ball backwards
Speaker 1: like it was just a thing. I wasn't really feeling myself.
Speaker 1: It wasn't great. I did heat up late, but it
Speaker 1: was too late. When you go up against like Gronk
Speaker 1: and Stray and all those guys, I fucking came out
Speaker 1: hot against you. And I mean there was a moment
Speaker 1: I was down by thirty and came back to tie
Speaker 1: it up, and I was to go next to win
Speaker 1: the whole thing, and I was like literally taking a
Speaker 1: minute and breathing, and I'm like, what am I doing.
Speaker 1: I'm going up against a two times Stanley Cup champion.
Speaker 1: I don't have the confidence for this. And I was like, yes,
Speaker 1: you do, you do. I'd beat his axe and it
Speaker 1: was great. Right. Hey, by the way, how did the
Speaker 1: golf turn turn out? We haven't even talked about it
Speaker 1: about Yeah, he lost by four strokes. Oh, I think
Speaker 1: is that what they say? That's what they say for
Speaker 1: his putting game was horrible. He said, he's all in
Speaker 1: his head. And yeah. The reason I ask is because
Speaker 1: Aaron's so funny. The last time we did catch up
Speaker 1: was her telling me that she was telling her child
Speaker 1: of one years old, your dad needs to get it together.
Speaker 1: We do not like losers in this Famly he better
Speaker 1: win that tournament. Yeah, the family of very competitive individuals.
Speaker 1: So yes, that is a very fun date night. Other
Speaker 1: date night ideas, I just think like surprising the other person,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, I love a theme, like just
Speaker 1: anything that is just different than you would normally do.
Speaker 1: So like even pack a picnic, but don't tell him
Speaker 1: you're packing a picnic. Just be like, meet me at
Speaker 1: this place at this time, cure. I also like to
Speaker 1: do this is like fun and just to spice things
Speaker 1: up for ten Like you guys haven't ever met and
Speaker 1: you're going on a first date, but it's a block date,
Speaker 1: and say meet me at this bar at this time.
Speaker 1: I'll be wearing this outfit. And then you like role
Speaker 1: play at the beginning of the date, like you've just
Speaker 1: met and it's like hot and heavy once you're into it,
Speaker 1: I love it. No, is that too specific? Okay? Right?
Speaker 1: And then it's hot heavy. Wasn't hot and heavy at
Speaker 1: the bowling alley? Let me tell you, because that was
Speaker 1: beating his ass hot and heavy. You know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Papa Boo one two three. Your secret to happiness? Oh,
Speaker 1: let me know when you find it. No, I'm so happy.
Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest things we're trying to
Speaker 1: do with our life is just the communication. I'll say this, ready,
Speaker 1: you want to you want to talk finding perspective in
Speaker 1: your life. I sent this to Carissa and to my
Speaker 1: manager and one of my closest girlfriends, Constance Schwartz Marini.
Speaker 1: There was amazing video, uh, the bills owner and his
Speaker 1: wife Terry and Kim Bugula going out to practice the
Speaker 1: other day, and I'll be honest, it just shook me up.
Speaker 1: She yeah, Josh Allen grabbing her arms. She had suffered
Speaker 1: a heart attack and now is obviously trying to come back.
Speaker 1: And God love that woman. So I think secret to
Speaker 1: happiness for me is really trying to find perspective. I
Speaker 1: want a lot of things in my life. I want
Speaker 1: them done right, and I want to please a lot
Speaker 1: of people. But when you see things like that to
Speaker 1: a beautiful, successful, lovely woman, man very well said. And
Speaker 1: I think that goes back to health doesn't matter. You
Speaker 1: know what text bracket you're in is that if you
Speaker 1: don't have your health, you don't have anything else. And
Speaker 1: so having those people around you when things don't always
Speaker 1: go your way in that department and I know that
Speaker 1: you know, as my great grandmother would always say, count
Speaker 1: your blessings, not your troubles. I think it's important to
Speaker 1: have that so very well said. And with that, thank
Speaker 1: you guys for joining us on the pre game. We
Speaker 1: are going to be happy because we have our health,
Speaker 1: and we have each other, and we have you guys.
